* Avoid believing incomplete MCV-only stats in get_variable_range().Tom Lane2021-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_variable_range() would incautiously believe that statistics containing only an MCV list are sufficient to derive a range estimate. That's okay for an enum-like column that contains only MCVs, but otherwise the estimate could be pretty bad. Make it report that the range is indeterminate unless the MCVs plus nullfrac account for the whole table. I don't think this needs a dedicated test case, since a quick code coverage check verifies that the existing regression tests traverse all the alternatives. There is room to doubt that a future-proof test case could be built anyway, given that the submitted example accidentally doesn't fail before v11. Per bug #17207 from Simon Perepelitsa. Back-patch to v10. In principle this has been broken all along, but I'm hesitant to make such changes in 9.6, since if anyone is unhappy with 9.6.24's behavior there will be no second chance to fix it.

* Fix Portal snapshot tracking to handle subtransactions properly.Tom Lane2021-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 84f5c2908 forgot to consider the possibility that EnsurePortalSnapshotExists could run inside a subtransaction with lifespan shorter than the Portal's. In that case, the new active snapshot would be popped at the end of the subtransaction, leaving a dangling pointer in the Portal, with mayhem ensuing. To fix, make sure the ActiveSnapshot stack entry is marked with the same subtransaction nesting level as the associated Portal. It's certainly safe to do so since we won't be here at all unless the stack is empty; hence we can't create an out-of-order stack. Let's also apply this logic in the case where PortalRunUtility sets portalSnapshot, just to be sure that path can't cause similar problems. It's slightly less clear that that path can't create an out-of-order stack, so add an assertion guarding it. Report and patch by Bertrand Drouvot (with kibitzing by me). Back-patch to v11, like the previous commit. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/ff82b8c5-77f4-3fe7-6028-fcf3303e82dd@amazon.com

* Remove gratuitous environment dependency in 002_types.pl test.Tom Lane2021-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Computing related timestamps by subtracting "N days" is sensitive to the prevailing timezone, since we interpret that as "same local time on the N'th prior day". Even though the intervals in question are only two to four days, through remarkable bad luck they managed to cross the end of Ramadan in 2014, causing the test's output to change if timezone is set to Africa/Casablanca. (Maybe in other Muslim areas as well; I didn't check.) There's absolutely no reason for this test to exercise interval subtraction, so just get rid of that and use plain timestamptz constants representing the intended values. Per report from Andres Freund. Back-patch to v10 where this test script came in. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20210930183641.7lh4jhvpipvromca@alap3.anarazel.de
* Repair two portability oversights of new testAlvaro Herrera2021-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First, as pointed out by Tom Lane and Michael Paquier, I failed to realize that Windows' PostgresNode needs an extra pg_hba.conf line (added by PostgresNode->set_replication_conf, called internally by ->init() when 'allows_streaming=>1' is given -- but I purposefully omitted that). I think a good fix should be to have nodes with only 'has_archiving=>1' set up for replication too, but that's a bigger discussion. Fix it by calling ->set_replication_conf, which is not unprecedented, as pointed out by Andrew Dunstan. I also forgot to uncomment a ->finish() call for a pumpable IPC::Run file descriptor. Apparently this is innocuous in almost all platforms. Backpatch to 14. The older branches were added this file too, but not this particular part of the test.

* Fix WAL replay in presence of an incomplete recordAlvaro Herrera2021-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Physical replication always ships WAL segment files to replicas once they are complete. This is a problem if one WAL record is split across a segment boundary and the primary server crashes before writing down the segment with the next portion of the WAL record: WAL writing after crash recovery would happily resume at the point where the broken record started, overwriting that record ... but any standby or backup may have already received a copy of that segment, and they are not rewinding. This causes standbys to stop following the primary after the latter crashes: LOG: invalid contrecord length 7262 at A8/D9FFFBC8 because the standby is still trying to read the continuation record (contrecord) for the original long WAL record, but it is not there and it will never be. A workaround is to stop the replica, delete the WAL file, and restart it -- at which point a fresh copy is brought over from the primary. But that's pretty labor intensive, and I bet many users would just give up and re-clone the standby instead. A fix for this problem was already attempted in commit 515e3d84a0b5, but it only addressed the case for the scenario of WAL archiving, so streaming replication would still be a problem (as well as other things such as taking a filesystem-level backup while the server is down after having crashed), and it had performance scalability problems too; so it had to be reverted. This commit fixes the problem using an approach suggested by Andres Freund, whereby the initial portion(s) of the split-up WAL record are kept, and a special type of WAL record is written where the contrecord was lost, so that WAL replay in the replica knows to skip the broken parts. With this approach, we can continue to stream/archive segment files as soon as they are complete, and replay of the broken records will proceed across the crash point without a hitch. Because a new type of WAL record is added, users should be careful to upgrade standbys first, primaries later. Otherwise they risk the standby being unable to start if the primary happens to write such a record. A new TAP test that exercises this is added, but the portability of it is yet to be seen. This has been wrong since the introduction of physical replication, so backpatch all the way back. In stable branches, keep the new XLogReaderState members at the end of the struct, to avoid an ABI break.

* Fix instability in contrib/bloom TAP tests.Tom Lane2021-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that the instability complained of in commit d3c09b9b1 has an embarrassingly simple explanation. The test script waits for the standby to flush incoming WAL to disk, but it should wait for the WAL to be replayed, since we are testing for the effects of that to be visible. While at it, use wait_for_catchup instead of reinventing that logic, and adjust $Test::Builder::Level to improve future error reports.

* Release memory allocated by dependency_degreeTomas Vondra2021-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Calculating degree of a functional dependency may allocate a lot of memory - we have released mot of the explicitly allocated memory, but e.g. detoasted varlena values were left behind. That may be an issue, because we consider a lot of dependencies (all combinations), and the detoasting may happen for each one again. Fixed by calling dependency_degree() in a dedicated context, and resetting it after each call. We only need the calculated dependency degree, so we don't need to copy anything.

* Free memory after building each statistics objectTomas Vondra2021-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, all extended statistics on a given relation were built in the same memory context, without resetting. Some of the memory was released explicitly, but not all of it - for example memory allocated while detoasting values is hard to free. This is how it worked since extended statistics were introduced in PostgreSQL 10, but adding support for extended stats on expressions made the issue somewhat worse as it increases the number of statistics to build. Fixed by adding a memory context which gets reset after building each statistics object (all the statistics kinds included in it). Resetting it after building each statistics kind would be even better, but it would require more invasive changes and copying of results, making it harder to backpatch.

* Fix "single value strategy" index deletion issue.Peter Geoghegan2021-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not appropriate for deduplication to apply single value strategy when triggered by a bottom-up index deletion pass. This wastes cycles because later bottom-up deletion passes will overinterpret older duplicate tuples that deduplication actually just skipped over "by design". It also makes bottom-up deletion much less effective for low cardinality indexes that happen to cross a meaningless "index has single key value per leaf page" threshold. To fix, slightly narrow the conditions under which deduplication's single value strategy is considered. We already avoided the strategy for a unique index, since our high level goal must just be to buy time for VACUUM to run (not to buy space). We'll now also avoid it when we just had a bottom-up pass that reported failure. The two cases share the same high level goal, and already overlapped significantly, so this approach is quite natural. Oversight in commit d168b666, which added bottom-up index deletion.

* Fix misevaluation of STABLE parameters in CALL within plpgsql.Tom Lane2021-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before commit 84f5c2908, a STABLE function in a plpgsql CALL statement's argument list would see an up-to-date snapshot, because exec_stmt_call would push a new snapshot. I got rid of that because the possibility of the snapshot disappearing within COMMIT made it too hard to manage a snapshot across the CALL statement. That's fine so far as the procedure itself goes, but I forgot to think about the possibility of STABLE functions within the CALL argument list. As things now stand, those'll be executed with the Portal's snapshot as ActiveSnapshot, keeping them from seeing updates more recent than Portal startup. (VOLATILE functions don't have a problem because they take their own snapshots; which indeed is also why the procedure itself doesn't have a problem. There are no STABLE procedures.) We can fix this by pushing a new snapshot transiently within ExecuteCallStmt itself. Popping the snapshot before we get into the procedure proper eliminates the management problem. The possibly-useless extra snapshot-grab is slightly annoying, but it's no worse than what happened before 84f5c2908. Per bug #17199 from Alexander Nawratil.

I missed a fine point though: we might be looking at a PHV in the quals or tlist of a child appendrel, in which case we need to compute a ph_eval_at value that's been translated in the same way that the PHV itself has been (cf. adjust_appendrel_attrs). Fortunately, enough info is available in the PlaceHolderInfo to make such translation possible without additional outside data, so we don't need another round of uglification of planner APIs. This is a little bit complicated, but since it's a hard-to-hit corner case, I'm not much worried about adding cycles here. Per report from Jaime Casanova. Back-patch to v12, like the previous commit.

* Fix EXPLAIN to handle SEARCH BREADTH FIRST queries.Tom Lane2021-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rewriter transformation for SEARCH BREADTH FIRST produces a FieldSelect on a Var of type RECORD, where the Var references the recursive union's worktable output. EXPLAIN VERBOSE failed to handle this case, because it only expected such Vars to appear in CteScans not WorkTableScans. Fix that, and add some test cases exercising EXPLAIN on SEARCH and CYCLE queries. In principle this oversight is an old bug, but it seems that the case is unreachable without SEARCH BREADTH FIRST, because the parser fails when attempting to create such a reference manually. So for today I'll just patch HEAD/v14. Someday we might find that the code portion of this patch needs to be back-patched further. Per report from Atsushi Torikoshi.

* Fix performance regression from session statistics.Andres Freund2021-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Session statistics, as introduced by 960869da08, had several shortcomings: - an additional GetCurrentTimestamp() call that also impaired the accuracy of the data collected This can be avoided by passing the current timestamp we already have in pgstat_report_stat(). - an additional statistics UDP packet sent every 500ms This is solved by adding the new statistics to PgStat_MsgTabstat. This is conceptually ugly, because session statistics are not table statistics. But the struct already contains data unrelated to tables, so there is not much damage done. Connection and disconnection are reported in separate messages, which reduces the number of additional messages to two messages per session and a slight increase in PgStat_MsgTabstat size (but the same number of table stats fit). - Session time computation could overflow on systems where long is 32 bit.
