* Add missing error check in pgcrypto/crypt-md5.c.Tom Lane2020-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In theory, the second px_find_digest call in px_crypt_md5 could fail even though the first one succeeded, since resource allocation is required. Don't skip testing for a failure. (If one did happen, the likely result would be a crash rather than clean recovery from an OOM failure.) The code's been like this all along, so back-patch to all supported branches. Daniel Gustafsson Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/AA8D6FE9-4AB2-41B4-98CB-AE64BA668C03@yesql.se
* Doc: tweak column widths in synchronous-commit-matrix table.Tom Lane2020-10-16

(This is of dubious value before v13, since we were far from free of such warnings in older branches. But we might as well keep the SGML looking the same in all branches.) Per buildfarm.
* llvmjit: Work around bug in LLVM 3.9 causing crashes after 72559438f92.Andres Freund2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unfortunately in LLVM 3.9 LLVMGetAttributeCountAtIndex(func, index) crashes when called with an index that has 0 attributes. Since there's no way to work around this in the C API, add a small C++ wrapper doing so. The only reason this didn't fail before 72559438f92 is that there always are function attributes...

* llvmjit: Also copy parameter / return value attributes from template functions.Andres Freund2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we only copied the function attributes. That caused problems at least on s390x: Because we didn't copy the 'zeroext' attribute for ExecAggTransReparent()'s *IsNull parameters, expressions invoking it didn't ensure that the upper bytes of the registers were zeroed. In the - relatively rare - cases where not, ExecAggTransReparent() wrongly ended up in the newValueIsNull branch due to the register not being zero. Subsequently causing a crash. It's quite possible that this would cause problems on other platforms, and in other places than just ExecAggTransReparent() on s390x. Thanks to Christoph (and the Debian project) for providing me with access to a s390x machine, allowing me to debug this.

* Handle EACCES errors from kevent() better.Thomas Munro2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While registering for postmaster exit events, we have to handle a couple of edge cases where the postmaster is already gone. Commit 815c2f09 missed one: EACCES must surely imply that PostmasterPid no longer belongs to our postmaster process (or alternatively an unexpected permissions model has been imposed on us). Like ESRCH, this should be treated as a WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH event, rather than being raised with ereport(). No known problems reported in the wild. Per code review from Tom Lane. Back-patch to 13.

* Restore replication protocol's duplicate command tagsAlvaro Herrera2020-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I removed the duplicate command tags for START_REPLICATION inadvertently in commit 07082b08cc5d, but the replication protocol requires them. The fact that the replication protocol was broken was not noticed because all our test cases use an optimized code path that exits early, failing to verify that the behavior is correct for non-optimized cases. Put them back. Also document this protocol quirk. Add a test case that shows the failure. It might still succeed even without the patch when run on a fast enough server, but it suffices to show the bug in enough cases that it would be noticed in buildfarm.

* Paper over regression failures in infinite_recurse() on PPC64 Linux.Tom Lane2020-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our infinite_recurse() test to verify sane stack-overrun behavior is affected by a bug of the Linux kernel on PPC64: it will get SIGSEGV if it receives a signal when the stack depth is (a) over 1MB and (b) within a few kB of filling the current physical stack allocation. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205183. Since this test is a bit time-consuming and we run it in parallel with test scripts that do a lot of DDL, it can be expected to get an sinval catchup interrupt at some point, leading to failure if the timing is wrong. This has caused more than 100 buildfarm failures over the past year or so. While a fix exists for the kernel bug, it might be years before that propagates into all production kernels, particularly in some of the older distros we have in the buildfarm. For now, let's just back off and not run this test on Linux PPC64; that loses nothing in test coverage so far as our own code is concerned. To do that, split this test into a new script infinite_recurse.sql and skip the test when the platform name is powerpc64...-linux-gnu. Back-patch to v12. Branches before that have not been seen to get this failure. No doubt that's because the "errors" test was not run in parallel with other tests before commit 798070ec0, greatly reducing the odds of an sinval catchup being necessary. I also back-patched 3c8553547 into v12, just so the new regression script would look the same in all branches having it.

* Fix memory leak when guc.c decides a setting can't be applied now.Tom Lane2020-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The prohibitValueChange code paths in set_config_option(), which are executed whenever we re-read a PGC_POSTMASTER variable from postgresql.conf, neglected to free anything before exiting. Thus we'd leak the proposed new value of a PGC_STRING variable, as noted by BoChen in bug #16666. For all variable types, if the check hook creates an "extra" chunk, we'd also leak that. These are malloc not palloc chunks, so there is no mechanism for recovering the leaks before process exit. Fortunately, the values are typically not very large, meaning you'd have to go through an awful lot of SIGHUP configuration-reload cycles to make the leakage amount to anything. Still, for a long-lived postmaster process it could potentially be a problem. Oversight in commit 2594cf0e8. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Choose ppc compare_exchange constant path for more operand values.Noah Misch2020-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation uses smaller code when the "expected" operand is a small constant, but the implementation needlessly defined the set of acceptable constants more narrowly than the ABI does. Core PostgreSQL and PGXN don't use the constant path at all, so this is future-proofing. Back-patch to v13, where commit 30ee5d17c20dbb282a9952b3048d6ad52d56c371 introduced this code.

* Fix optimization hazard in gram.y's makeOrderedSetArgs(), redux.Tom Lane2020-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that commit cf63c641c, which intended to prevent misoptimization of the result-building step in makeOrderedSetArgs, didn't go far enough: buildfarm member hornet's version of xlc is now optimizing back to the old, broken behavior in which list_length(directargs) is fetched only after list_concat() has changed that value. I'm not entirely convinced whether that's an undeniable compiler bug or whether it can be justified by a sufficiently aggressive interpretation of C sequence points. So let's just change the code to make it harder to misinterpret. Back-patch to all supported versions, just in case. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1830491.1601944935@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Prevent internal overflows in date-vs-timestamp and related comparisons.Tom Lane2020-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The date-vs-timestamp, date-vs-timestamptz, and timestamp-vs-timestamptz comparators all worked by promoting the first type to the second and then doing a simple same-type comparison. This works fine, except when the conversion result is out of range, in which case we throw an entirely avoidable error. The sources of such failures are (a) type date can represent dates much farther in the future than the timestamp types can; (b) timezone rotation might cause a just-in-range timestamp value to become a just-out-of-range timestamptz value. Up to now we just ignored these corner-case issues, but now we have an actual user complaint (bug #16657 from Huss EL-Sheikh), so let's do something about it. It turns out that commit 52ad1e659 already built all the necessary infrastructure to support error-free comparisons, but neglected to actually use it in the main-line code paths. Fix that, do a little bit of code style review, and remove the now-duplicate logic in jsonpath_exec.c. Back-patch to v13 where 52ad1e659 came in. We could take this back further by back-patching said infrastructure, but given the small number of complaints so far, I don't feel a great need to.

* Rethink recent fix for pg_dump's handling of extension config tables.Tom Lane2020-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3eb3d3e78 was a few bricks shy of a load: while it correctly set the table's "interesting" flag when deciding to dump the data of an extension config table, it was not correct to clear that flag if we concluded we shouldn't dump the data. This led to the crash reported in bug #16655, because in fact we'll traverse dumpTableSchema anyway for all extension tables (to see if they have user-added seclabels or RLS policies). The right thing to do is to force "interesting" true in makeTableDataInfo, and otherwise leave the flag alone. (Doing it there is more future-proof in case additional calls are added, and it also avoids setting the flag unnecessarily if that function decides the table is non-dumpable.) This investigation also showed that while only the --inserts code path had an obvious failure in the case considered by 3eb3d3e78, the COPY code path also has a problem with not having loaded table subsidiary data. That causes fmtCopyColumnList to silently return an empty string instead of the correct column list. That accidentally mostly works, which perhaps is why we didn't notice this before. It would only fail if the restore column order is different from the dump column order, which only happens in weird inheritance cases, so it's not surprising nobody had hit the case with an extension config table. Nonetheless, it's a bug, and it goes a long way back, not just to v12 where the --inserts code path started to have a problem with this. In hopes of catching such cases a bit sooner in future, add some Asserts that "interesting" has been set in both dumpTableData and dumpTableSchema. Adjust the test case added by 3eb3d3e78 so that it checks the COPY rather than INSERT form of that bug, allowing it to detect the longer-standing symptom. Per bug #16655 from Cameron Daniel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch prevents crashes or wrong plans when partition-wise joins are considered during GEQO planning, as a consequence of the EquivalenceClass data structures becoming corrupt after a GEQO context reset. A remaining problem is that successive GEQO cycles will make multiple copies of the required EC members, since add_child_join_rel_equivalences has no idea that such members might exist already. For now we'll just live with that. The lack of field complaints of crashes suggests that this is a mighty little-used situation. Back-patch to v12 where this code was introduced.

* Fix two latent(?) bugs in equivclass.c.Tom Lane2020-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_eclass_for_sort_expr() computes expr_relids and nullable_relids early on, even though they won't be needed unless we make a new EquivalenceClass, which we often don't. Aside from the probably-minor inefficiency, there's a memory management problem: these bitmapsets will be built in the caller's context, leading to dangling pointers if that is shorter-lived than root->planner_cxt. This would be a live bug if get_eclass_for_sort_expr() could be called with create_it = true during GEQO join planning. So far as I can find, the core code never does that, but it's hard to be sure that no extensions do, especially since the comments make it clear that that's supposed to be a supported case. Fix by not computing these values until we've switched into planner_cxt to build the new EquivalenceClass. generate_join_implied_equalities() uses inner_rel->relids to look up relevant eclasses, but it ought to be using nominal_inner_relids. This is presently harmless because a child RelOptInfo will always have exactly the same eclass_indexes as its topmost parent; but that might not be true forever, and anyway it makes the code confusing. The first of these is old (introduced by me in f3b3b8d5b), so back-patch to all supported branches. The second only dates to v13, but we might as well back-patch it to keep the code looking similar across branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1508010.1601832581@sss.pgh.pa.us

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, a conversion such as to_date('-44-02-01','YYYY-MM-DD') would result in '0045-02-01 BC', as the code attempted to interpret the negative year as BC, but failed to apply the correction needed for our internal handling of BC years. Fix the off-by-one problem. Also, arrange for the combination of a negative year and an explicit "BC" marker to cancel out and produce AD. This is how the negative-century case works, so it seems sane to do likewise. Continue to read "year 0000" as 1 BC.

* Remove obsolete replication settings within TAP tests.Tom Lane2020-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PostgresNode.pm set "max_wal_senders = 5" for replication testing, but this seems to be slightly too low for our current test suite. Slower buildfarm members frequently report "number of requested standby connections exceeds max_wal_senders" failures, due to old walsenders not exiting instantaneously. Usually, the test does not fail overall because of automatic walreceiver restart, but sometimes the failure becomes visible; and in any case such retries slow down the test. That value came in with commit 89ac7004d, but was soon obsoleted by f6d6d2920, which raised the built-in default from zero to 10; so that PostgresNode.pm is actually setting it to less than the conservative built-in default. That seems pretty pointless, so let's remove the special setting and let the default prevail, in hopes of making the TAP tests more robust. Likewise, the setting "max_replication_slots = 5" is obsolete and can be removed. While here, reverse-engineer a comment about why we're choosing less-than-default values for some other settings. (Note: before v12, max_wal_senders counted against max_connections so that the latter setting also needs some fiddling with.) Back-patch to v10 where the subscription tests were added. It's likely that the older branches aren't pushing the boundaries of max_wal_senders, but I'm disinclined to spend time trying to figure out exactly when it started to be a problem.

* Fix memory leak in plpgsql's CALL processing.Tom Lane2020-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When executing a CALL or DO in a non-atomic context (i.e., not inside a function or query), plpgsql creates a new plan each time through, as a rather hacky solution to some resource management issues. But it failed to free this plan until exit of the current procedure or DO block, resulting in serious memory bloat in procedures that called other procedures many times. Fix by remembering to free the plan, and by being more honest about restoring the previous state (otherwise, recursive procedure calls have a problem). There was also a smaller leak associated with recalculation of the "target" list of output variables. Fix that by using the statement- lifespan context to hold non-permanent values. Back-patch to v11 where procedures were introduced. Pavel Stehule and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFj8pRDiiU1dqym+_P4_GuTWm76knJu7z9opWayBJTC0nQGUUA@mail.gmail.com
* Support for ISO 8601 in the jsonpath .datetime() methodAlexander Korotkov2020-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SQL standard doesn't require jsonpath .datetime() method to support the ISO 8601 format. But our to_json[b]() functions convert timestamps to text in the ISO 8601 format in the sake of compatibility with javascript. So, we add support of the ISO 8601 to the jsonpath .datetime() in the sake compatibility with to_json[b](). The standard mode of datetime parsing currently supports just template patterns and separators in the format string. In order to implement ISO 8601, we have to add support of the format string double quotes to the standard parsing mode.

* Archive timeline history files in standby if archive_mode is set to "always".Fujii Masao2020-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the standby server didn't archive timeline history files streamed from the primary even when archive_mode is set to "always", while it archives the streamed WAL files. This could cause the PITR to fail because there was no required timeline history file in the archive. The cause of this issue was that walreceiver didn't mark those files as ready for archiving. This commit makes walreceiver mark those streamed timeline history files as ready for archiving if archive_mode=always. Then the archiver process archives the marked timeline history files. Back-patch to all supported versions.

* Fix progress reporting of REINDEX CONCURRENTLYMichael Paquier2020-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This addresses a couple of issues with the so-said subject: - Report the correct parent relation with the index actually being rebuilt or validated. Previously, the command status remained set to the last index created for the progress of the index build and validation, which would be incorrect when working on a table that has more than one index. - Use the correct phase when waiting before the drop of the old indexes. Previously, this was reported with the same status as when waiting before the old indexes are marked as dead.

* Add for_each_from, to simplify loops starting from non-first list cells.Tom Lane2020-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have a dozen or so places that need to iterate over all but the first cell of a List. Prior to v13 this was typically written as for_each_cell(lc, lnext(list_head(list))) Commit 1cff1b95a changed these to for_each_cell(lc, list, list_second_cell(list)) This patch introduces a new macro for_each_from() which expresses the start point as a list index, allowing these to be written as for_each_from(lc, list, 1) This is marginally more efficient, since ForEachState.i can be initialized directly instead of backing into it from a ListCell address. It also seems clearer and less typo-prone. Some of the remaining uses of for_each_cell() look like they could profitably be changed to for_each_from(), but here I confined myself to changing uses of list_second_cell(). Also, fix for_each_cell_setup() and for_both_cell_setup() to const-ify their arguments; that's a simple oversight in 1cff1b95a. Back-patch into v13, on the grounds that (1) the const-ification is a minor bug fix, and (2) it's better for back-patching purposes if we only have two ways to write these loops rather than three. In HEAD, also remove list_third_cell() and list_fourth_cell(), which were also introduced in 1cff1b95a, and are unused as of cc99baa43. It seems unlikely that any third-party code would have started to use them already; anyone who has can be directed to list_nth_cell instead.

* Revise RelationBuildRowSecurity() to avoid memory leaks.Tom Lane2020-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function leaked some memory while loading qual clauses for an RLS policy. While ordinarily negligible, that could build up in some repeated-reload cases, as reported by Konstantin Knizhnik. We can improve matters by borrowing the coding long used in RelationBuildRuleLock: build stringToNode's result directly in the target context, and remember to explicitly pfree the input string. This patch by no means completely guarantees zero leaks within this function, since we have no real guarantee that the catalog- reading subroutines it calls don't leak anything. However, practical tests suggest that this is enough to resolve the issue. In any case, any remaining leaks are similar to those risked by RelationBuildRuleLock and other relcache-loading subroutines. If we need to fix them, we should adopt a more global approach such as that used by the RECOVER_RELATION_BUILD_MEMORY hack. While here, let's remove the need for an expensive PG_TRY block by using MemoryContextSetParent to reparent an initially-short-lived context for the RLS data. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix handling of -d "connection string" in pg_dump/pg_restore.Tom Lane2020-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Parallel pg_dump failed if its -d parameter was a connection string containing any essential information other than host, port, or username. The same was true for pg_restore with --create. The reason is that these scenarios failed to preserve the connection string from the command line; the code felt free to replace that with just the database name when reconnecting from a pg_dump parallel worker or after creating the target database. By chance, parallel pg_restore did not suffer this defect, as long as you didn't say --create. In practice it seems that the error would be obvious only if the connstring included essential, non-default SSL or GSS parameters. This may explain why it took us so long to notice. (It also makes it very difficult to craft a regression test case illustrating the problem, since the test would fail in builds without those options.) Fix by refactoring so that ConnectDatabase always receives all the relevant options directly from the command line, rather than reconstructed values. Inject a different database name, when necessary, by relying on libpq's rules for handling multiple "dbname" parameters. While here, let's get rid of the essentially duplicate _connectDB function, as well as some obsolete nearby cruft. Per bug #16604 from Zsolt Ero. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Avoid possible dangling-pointer access in tsearch_readline_callback.Tom Lane2020-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tsearch_readline() saves the string pointer it returns to the caller for possible use in the associated error context callback. However, the caller will usually pfree that string sometime before it next calls tsearch_readline(), so that there is a window where an ereport will try to print an already-freed string. The built-in users of tsearch_readline() happen to all do that pfree at the bottoms of their loops, so that the window is effectively empty for them. However, this is not documented as a requirement, and contrib/dict_xsyn doesn't do it like that, so it seems likely that third-party dictionaries might have live bugs here. The practical consequences of this seem pretty limited in any case, since production builds wouldn't clobber the freed string immediately, besides which you'd not expect syntax errors in dictionary files being used in production. Still, it's clearly a bug waiting to bite somebody. Fix by pstrdup'ing the string to be saved for the error callback, and then pfree'ing it next time through. It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/48A4FA71-524E-41B9-953A-FD04EF36E2E7@yesql.se
