* Rename static function to avoid conflicting namesDaniel Gustafsson2024-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | Commit a4fd3aa719e moved setup_cancel_handler out of psql and exporeted it as a global function. While pg_dump isn't using the header it's exported in, having a conflicting name still risks causing confusion when grepping the code for callsites, so rename the static function in pg_dump to avoid this.

* Adjust reltarget assignment for UPPERREL_PARTIAL_DISTINCT relDavid Rowley2024-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A comment in grouping_planner() claimed that the PlannerInfo upper_targets array was not used in core code. However, the code that generated the paths for the UPPERREL_PARTIAL_DISTINCT rel made that comment untrue. Here we adjust the create_distinct_paths() function signature to pass down the PathTarget the same as is done for create_grouping_paths(), thus making the aforementioned comment true again. In passing adjust the order of the upper_targets[] assignments. These seem to be following the reverse enum order apart from UPPERREL_PARTIAL_DISTINCT. Also, update the header comment for generate_gather_paths() to mention the function is also used to create gather paths for partial distinct paths.

* Simplify initialization of incremental hash stateJohn Naylor2024-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The standalone functions fasthash{32,64} use length for two purposes: how many bytes to hash, and how to perturb the internal seed. Developers using the incremental interface may not know the length ahead of time (e.g. for C strings). In this case, it's advised to pass length to the finalizer, but initialization still needed some length up front, in the form of a placeholder macro. Separate the concerns by having the standalone functions perturb the internal seed themselves from their own length parameter, allowing to remove "len" from fasthash_init(), as well as the placeholder macro.

* Run REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY in right security contextHeikki Linnakangas2024-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The internal commands in REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY are correctly executed in SECURITY_RESTRICTED_OPERATION mode, except for creating the temporary "diff" table, because you cannot create temporary tables in SRO mode. But creating the temporary "diff" table is a pretty complex CTAS command that selects from another temporary table created earlier in the command. If you can cajole that CTAS command to execute code defined by the table owner, the table owner can run code with the privileges of the user running the REFRESH command. The proof-of-concept reported to the security team relied on CREATE RULE to convert the internally-built temp table to a view. That's not possible since commit b23cd185fd, and I was not able to find a different way to turn the SELECT on the temp table into code execution, so as far as I know this is only exploitable in v15 and below. That's a fiddly assumption though, so apply this patch to master and all stable versions. Thanks to Pedro Gallegos for the report. Security: CVE-2023-5869 Reviewed-by: Noah Misch

* Refactor CopyAttributeOut{CSV,Text}() to use a callback in COPY TOMichael Paquier2024-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These routines are used by the text and CSV formats to send an output representation of a string, applying quotes if required. This is similar to 95fb5b49024a, reducing the number of "if" branches that need to be checked on a per-row basis when sending representation of fields in text or CSV mode. While on it, this simplifies the signature of CopyAttributeOutCSV() as it is possible to know that an attribute is alone on a line thanks to CopyToState.

Before that, the UnpinLocalBuffer() call guaranteed that the subsequent PinLocalBuffer() will succeed, but after the rewrite, releasing an old resource doesn't guarantee that there is space for a new one.

* Allow Gather Merge in more cases for parallel DISTINCTDavid Rowley2024-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here we adjust the partial path generation for parallel DISTINCT queries to add Sort nodes on top of any unsorted partial distinct paths. This increases the likelihood of the planner pushing a Sort below a Gather Merge which enables the final phase of the parallel distinct to be implemented using a Unique node in more cases. Sorting the partial distinct paths is particularly useful when the DISTINCT query has an ORDER BY and LIMIT clause as this can allow cheaper plans by having the workers Hash Aggregate then Sort before feeding the results into the Gather Merge. The non-parallel portion of the plan then becomes very cheap as it leaves only Unique and Limit to do in the leader process.

Either missing file would not fail recovery but would render the new database unusable. Fix CreateDirAndVersionFile() with the transam/README "action first and then write a WAL entry" strategy.

* Fix costing bug in MergeAppendDavid Rowley2024-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When building a MergeAppendPath which has child paths that are not sorted correctly for the MergeAppend's sort order, we apply the cost of sorting those paths to the MergeAppendPath costs. Here we fix a bug where the number of tuples specified that needed to be sorted was effectively pg_class.reltuples rather than the number of expected row in the subpath. This effectively penalizes MergeAppend plans any time any filter is present on the MergeAppend subpath as the sort cost added is to sort all tuples in the table rather than just the ones expected the path to return. This did not affect UNION ALL type queries as the RelOptInfo tuples is set from the subquery's path rows. It does affect MergeAppends uses for inheritance and partitioned tables. This is a long-standing bug introduced when MergeAppend was first added in 11cad29c9. No backpatch as this could result in plan changes.

* Give SMgrRelation pointers a well-defined lifetime.Heikki Linnakangas2024-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After calling smgropen(), it was not clear how long you could continue to use the result, because various code paths including cache invalidation could call smgrclose(), which freed the memory. Guarantee that the object won't be destroyed until the end of the current transaction, or in recovery, the commit/abort record that destroys the underlying storage. smgrclose() is now just an alias for smgrrelease(). It closes files and forgets all state except the rlocator, but keeps the SMgrRelation object valid. A new smgrdestroy() function is used by rare places that know there should be no other references to the SMgrRelation. The short version: * smgrclose() is now just an alias for smgrrelease(). It releases resources, but doesn't destroy until EOX * smgrdestroy() now frees memory, and should rarely be used. Existing code should be unaffected, but it is now possible for code that has an SMgrRelation object to use it repeatedly during a transaction as long as the storage hasn't been physically dropped. Such code would normally hold a lock on the relation. This also replaces the "ownership" mechanism of SMgrRelations with a pin counter. An SMgrRelation can now be "pinned", which prevents it from being destroyed at end of transaction. There can be multiple pins on the same SMgrRelation. In practice, the pin mechanism is only used by the relcache, so there cannot be more than one pin on the same SMgrRelation. Except with swap_relation_files XXX Author: Thomas Munro, Heikki Linnakangas Reviewed-by: Robert Haas <robertmhaas@gmail.com> Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CA%2BhUKGJ8NTvqLHz6dqbQnt2c8XCki4r2QvXjBQcXpVwxTY_pvA@mail.gmail.com
* Remove some obsolete smgrcloseall() calls.Heikki Linnakangas2024-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before the advent of PROCSIGNAL_BARRIER_SMGRRELEASE, we didn't have a comprehensive way to deal with Windows file handles that get in the way of unlinking directories. We had smgrcloseall() calls in a few places to try to mitigate. It's still a good idea for bgwriter and checkpointer to do that once per checkpoint so they don't accumulate unbounded SMgrRelation objects, but there is no longer any reason to close them at other random places such as the error path, and the explanation as given in the comments is now obsolete.
