* Make recovery report error message when invalid page header is found.Fujii Masao2023-09-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 0668719801 changed XLogPageRead() so that it validated the page header, if invalid page header was found reset the error message and retried reading the page, to fix the scenario where streaming standby got stuck at a continuation record. This change hid the error message about invalid page header, which would make it harder for users to investigate what the actual issue was found in WAL. To fix the issue, this commit makes XLogPageRead() report the error message when invalid page header is found. When not in standby mode, an invalid page header should cause recovery to end, not retry reading the page, so XLogPageRead() doesn't need to validate the page header for the retry. Instead, ReadPageInternal() should be responsible for the validation in that case. Therefore this commit changes XLogPageRead() so that if not in standby mode it doesn't validate the page header for the retry. This commit has been originally pushed as of 68601985e699 for 15 and newer versions, but not to the older branches. A recent investigation related to WAL replay failures has showed up that the lack of this patch in 12~14 is an issue, as we want to be able to improve the WAL reader to make a correct distinction between the end-of-wal and OOM cases when validating record headers. REL_11_STABLE is left out as it will be EOL'd soon.

* pg_basebackup: Generate valid temporary slot names under PQbackendPID()Michael Paquier2023-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pgbouncer can cause PQbackendPID() to return negative values due to it filling be_pid with random bytes (even these days pid_max can only be set up to 2^22 on 64b machines on Linux, for example, so this cannot happen with normal PID numbers). When this happens, pg_basebackup may generate a temporary slot name that may not be accepted by the parser, leading to spurious failures, like: pg_basebackup: error: could not send replication command ERROR: replication slot name "pg_basebackup_-1201966863" contains invalid character This commit fixes that problem by formatting the result from PQbackendPID() as an unsigned integer when creating the temporary replication slot name, so as the invalid character is gone and the command can be parsed.

* Avoid unnecessary plancache revalidation of utility statements.Tom Lane2023-08-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revalidation of a plancache entry (after a cache invalidation event) requires acquiring a snapshot. Normally that is harmless, but not if the cached statement is one that needs to run without acquiring a snapshot. We were already aware of that for TransactionStmts, but for some reason hadn't extrapolated to the other statements that PlannedStmtRequiresSnapshot() knows mustn't set a snapshot. This can lead to unexpected failures of commands such as SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL. We can fix it in the same way, by excluding those command types from revalidation. However, we can do even better than that: there is no need to revalidate for any statement type for which parse analysis, rewrite, and plan steps do nothing interesting, which is nearly all utility commands. To mechanize this, invent a parser function stmt_requires_parse_analysis() that tells whether parse analysis does anything beyond wrapping a CMD_UTILITY Query around the raw parse tree. If that's what it does, then rewrite and plan will just skip the Query, so that it is not possible for the same raw parse tree to produce a different plan tree after cache invalidation. stmt_requires_parse_analysis() is basically equivalent to the existing function analyze_requires_snapshot(), except that for obscure reasons that function omits ReturnStmt and CallStmt. It is unclear whether those were oversights or intentional. I have not been able to demonstrate a bug from not acquiring a snapshot while analyzing these commands, but at best it seems mighty fragile. It seems safer to acquire a snapshot for parse analysis of these commands too, which allows making stmt_requires_parse_analysis and analyze_requires_snapshot equivalent. In passing this fixes a second bug, which is that ResetPlanCache would exclude ReturnStmts and CallStmts from revalidation. That's surely *not* safe, since they contain parsable expressions. Per bug #18059 from Pavel Kulakov. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18059-79c692f036b25346@postgresql.org

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attribute missing values might be needed past the lifetime of the tuple descriptors from which they are extracted. To avoid possibly using pointers for by-reference values which might thus be left dangling, we cache a datumCopy'd version of the datum in the TopMemoryContext.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Substituting such values in extension scripts facilitated SQL injection when @extowner@, @extschema@, or @extschema:...@ appeared inside a quoting construct (dollar quoting, '', or ""). No bundled extension was vulnerable. Vulnerable uses do appear in a documentation example and in non-bundled extensions. Hence, the attack prerequisite was an administrator having installed files of a vulnerable, trusted, non-bundled extension. Subject to that prerequisite, this enabled an attacker having database-level CREATE privilege to execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. By blocking this attack in the core server, there's no need to modify individual extensions. Back-patch to v11 (all supported versions).

* Disallow replacing joins with scans in problematic cases.Etsuro Fujita2023-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e7cb7ee14, which introduced the infrastructure for FDWs and custom scan providers to replace joins with scans, failed to add support handling of pseudoconstant quals assigned to replaced joins in createplan.c, leading to an incorrect plan without a gating Result node when postgres_fdw replaced a join with such a qual. To fix, we could add the support by 1) modifying the ForeignPath and CustomPath structs to store the list of RestrictInfo nodes to apply to the join, as in JoinPaths, if they represent foreign and custom scans replacing a join with a scan, and by 2) modifying create_scan_plan() in createplan.c to use that list in that case, instead of the baserestrictinfo list, to get pseudoconstant quals assigned to the join; but #1 would cause an ABI break. So fix by modifying the infrastructure to just disallow replacing joins with such quals. Back-patch to all supported branches. Reported by Nishant Sharma.

* Raise fixed token-length limit in hba.c.Tom Lane2023-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically, hba.c limited tokens in the authentication configuration files (pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf) to less than 256 bytes. We have seen a few reports of this limit causing problems; notably, for moderately-complex LDAP configurations. Increase the limit to 10240 bytes as a low-risk stop-gap solution. In v13 and earlier, this also requires raising MAX_LINE, the limit on overall line length. I'm hesitant to make this code consume too much stack space, so I only raised that to 20480 bytes.

* Fix recovery of 2PC transaction during crash recoveryMichael Paquier2023-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A crash in the middle of a checkpoint with some two-phase state data already flushed to disk by this checkpoint could cause a follow-up crash recovery to recover twice the same transaction, once from what has been found in pg_twophase/ at the beginning of recovery and a second time when replaying its corresponding record. This would lead to FATAL failures in the startup process during recovery, where the same transaction would have a state recovered twice instead of once: LOG: recovering prepared transaction 731 from shared memory LOG: recovering prepared transaction 731 from shared memory FATAL: lock ExclusiveLock on object 731/0/0 is already held This issue is fixed by skipping the addition of any 2PC state coming from a record whose equivalent 2PC state file has already been loaded in TwoPhaseState at the beginning of recovery by restoreTwoPhaseData(), which is OK as long as the system has not reached a consistent state. The timing to get a messed up recovery processing is very racy, and would very unlikely happen. The thread that has reported the issue has demonstrated the bug using injection points to force a PANIC in the middle of a checkpoint. Issue introduced in 728bd99, so backpatch all the way down.

* Add indisreplident to fields refreshed by RelationReloadIndexInfo()Michael Paquier2023-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RelationReloadIndexInfo() is a fast-path used for index reloads in the relation cache, and it has always forgotten about updating indisreplident, which is something that would happen after an index is selected for a replica identity. This can lead to incorrect cache information provided when executing a command in a transaction context that updates indisreplident. None of the code paths currently on HEAD that need to check upon pg_index.indisreplident fetch its value from the relation cache, always relying on a fresh copy on the syscache. Unfortunately, this may not be the case of out-of-core code, that could see out-of-date value.

* Fix updates of indisvalid for partitioned indexesMichael Paquier2023-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | indisvalid is switched to true for partitioned indexes when all its partitions have valid indexes when attaching a new partition, up to the top-most parent if all its leaves are themselves valid when dealing with multiple layers of partitions. The copy of the tuple from pg_index used to switch indisvalid to true came from the relation cache, which is incorrect. Particularly, in the case reported by Shruthi Gowda, executing a series of commands in a single transaction would cause the validation of partitioned indexes to use an incorrect version of a pg_index tuple, as indexes are reloaded after an invalidation request with RelationReloadIndexInfo(), a much faster version than a full index cache rebuild. In this case, the limited information updated in the cache leads to an incorrect version of the tuple used. One of the symptoms reported was the following error, with a replica identity update, for instance: "ERROR: attempted to update invisible tuple" This is incorrect since 8b08f7d, so backpatch all the way down.

* Handle DROP DATABASE getting interruptedAndres Freund2023-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, when DROP DATABASE got interrupted in the wrong moment, the removal of the pg_database row would also roll back, even though some irreversible steps have already been taken. E.g. DropDatabaseBuffers() might have thrown out dirty buffers, or files could have been unlinked. But we continued to allow connections to such a corrupted database. To fix this, mark databases invalid with an in-place update, just before starting to perform irreversible steps. As we can't add a new column in the back branches, we use pg_database.datconnlimit = -2 for this purpose. An invalid database cannot be connected to anymore, but can still be dropped. Unfortunately we can't easily add output to psql's \l to indicate that some database is invalid, it doesn't fit in any of the existing columns. Add tests verifying that a interrupted DROP DATABASE is handled correctly in the backend and in various tools.

* Release lock after encountering bogs row in vac_truncate_clog()Andres Freund2023-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When vac_truncate_clog() encounters bogus datfrozenxid / datminmxid values, it returns early. Unfortunately, until now, it did not release WrapLimitsVacuumLock. If the backend later tries to acquire WrapLimitsVacuumLock, the session / autovacuum worker hangs in an uncancellable way. Similarly, other sessions will hang waiting for the lock. However, if the backend holding the lock exited or errored out for some reason, the lock was released. The bug was introduced as a side effect of 566372b3d643. It is interesting that there are no production reports of this problem. That is likely due to a mix of bugs leading to bogus values having gotten less common, process exit releasing locks and instances of hangs being hard to debug for "normal" users.

* Remove unnecessary pfree() in g_intbig_compress().Tom Lane2023-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GiST compress functions (like all GiST opclass functions) are supposed to be called in short-lived memory contexts, so that minor memory leaks in them are not of concern, and indeed explicit pfree's are likely slightly counterproductive. But this one in g_intbig_compress() is more than slightly counterproductive, because it's guarded by "if (in != DatumGetArrayTypeP(entry->key))" which means that if this test succeeds, we've detoasted the datum twice. (And to add insult to injury, the extra detoast result is leaked.) Let's just drop the whole stanza, relying on the GiST temporary context mechanism to clean up in good time. The analogous bit in g_int_compress() is if (r != (ArrayType *) DatumGetPointer(entry->key)) pfree(r); which doesn't have the gratuitous-detoast problem so I left it alone. Perhaps there is a case for removing unnecessary pfree's more widely, but I'm not sure if it's worth the code churn. The potential extra decompress seems expensive enough to justify calling this a (minor) performance bug and back-patching.

* Be more rigorous about local variables in PostgresMain().Tom Lane2023-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since PostgresMain calls sigsetjmp, any local variables that are not marked "volatile" have a risk of unspecified behavior. In practice this means that when control returns via longjmp, such variables might get reset to their values as of the time of sigsetjmp, depending on whether the compiler chose to put them in registers or on the stack. We were careful about this for "send_ready_for_query", but not the other local variables. In the case of the timeout_enabled flags, resetting them to their initial "false" states is actually good, since we do "disable_all_timeouts()" in the longjmp cleanup code path. If that does not happen, we risk uselessly calling "disable_timeout()" later, which is harmless but a little bit expensive. Let's explicitly reset these flags so that the behavior is correct and platform-independent. (This change means that we really don't need the new "volatile" markings after all, but let's install them anyway since any change in this logic could re-introduce a problem.) There is no issue for "firstchar" and "input_message" because those are explicitly reinitialized each time through the query processing loop. To make that clearer, move them to be declared inside the loop. That leaves us with all the function-lifespan locals except the sigjmp_buf itself marked as volatile, which seems like a good policy to have going forward. Because of the possibility of extra disable_timeout() calls, this seems worth back-patching.

* Fix ALTER EXTENSION SET SCHEMA with objects outside an extension's schemaMichael Paquier2023-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As coded, the code would use as a base comparison the namespace OID from the first object scanned in pg_depend when switching its namespace dependency entry to the new one, and use it as a base of comparison for any follow-up checks. It would also be used as the old namespace OID to switch *from* for the extension's pg_depend entry. Hence, if the first object scanned has a namespace different than the one stored in the extension, we would finish by: - Not checking that the extension objects map with the extension's schema. - Not switching the extension -> namespace dependency entry to the new namespace provided by the user, making ALTER EXTENSION ineffective. This issue exists since this command has been introduced in d9572c4 for relocatable extension, so backpatch all the way down to 11.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We create a file, so we better WAL-log it. In practice, all the built-in index AMs and all extensions that I'm aware of write a metapage to the init fork, which is WAL-logged, and replay of the metapage implicitly creates the fork too. But if ambuildempty() didn't write any page, we would miss it. This can be seen with dummy_index_am. Set up replication, create a 'dummy_index_am' index on an unlogged table, and look at the files created in the replica: the init fork is not created on the replica. Dummy_index_am doesn't do anything with the relation files, however, so it doesn't lead to any user-visible errors. Backpatch to all supported versions.

* Fix leak of LLVM "fatal-on-oom" section counter.Heikki Linnakangas2023-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | llvm_release_context() called llvm_enter_fatal_on_oom(), but was missing the corresponding llvm_leave_fatal_on_oom() call. As a result, if JIT was used at all, we were almost always in the "fatal-on-oom" state. It only makes a difference if you use an extension written in C++, and run out of memory in a C++ 'new' call. In that case, you would get a PostgreSQL FATAL error, instead of the default behavior of throwing a C++ exception. Back-patch to all supported versions.

* Ensure that creation of an empty relfile is fsync'd at checkpoint.Heikki Linnakangas2023-07-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you create a table and don't insert any data into it, the relation file is never fsync'd. You don't lose data, because an empty table doesn't have any data to begin with, but if you crash and lose the file, subsequent operations on the table will fail with "could not open file" error. To fix, register an fsync request in mdcreate(), like we do for mdwrite(). Per discussion, we probably should also fsync the containing directory after creating a new file. But that's a separate and much wider issue. Backpatch to all supported versions.

* Re-bin segment when memory pages are freed.Thomas Munro2023-07-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's OK to be lazy about re-binning memory segments when allocating, because that can only leave segments in a bin that's too high. We'll search higher bins if necessary while allocating next time, and also eventually re-bin, so no memory can become unreachable that way. However, when freeing memory, the largest contiguous range of free pages might go up, so we should re-bin eagerly to make sure we don't leave the segment in a bin that is too low for get_best_segment() to find. The re-binning code is moved into a function of its own, so it can be called whenever free pages are returned to the segment's free page map. Back-patch to all supported releases.

* Fix race in SSI interaction with bitmap heap scan.Thomas Munro2023-07-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When performing a bitmap heap scan, we don't want to miss concurrent writes that occurred after we observed the heap's rs_nblocks, but before we took predicate locks on index pages. Therefore, we can't skip fetching any heap tuples that are referenced by the index, because we need to test them all with CheckForSerializableConflictOut(). The old optimization that would ignore any references to blocks >= rs_nblocks gets in the way of that requirement, because it means that concurrent writes in that window are ignored. Removing that optimization shouldn't affect correctness at any isolation level, because any new tuples shouldn't be visible to an MVCC snapshot. There also shouldn't be any error-causing references to heap blocks past the end, because we should have held at least an AccessShareLock on the table before the index scan. It can't get smaller while our transaction is running. For now, though, we'll keep the optimization at lower levels to avoid making unnecessary changes in a bug fix. Back-patch to all supported releases. In release 11, the code is in a different place but not fundamentally different. Fixes one aspect of bug #17949.

* Fix race in SSI interaction with empty btrees.Thomas Munro2023-07-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When predicate-locking btrees, we have a special case for completely empty btrees, since there is no page to lock. This was racy, because, without buffer lock held, a matching key could be inserted between the _bt_search() and the PredicateLockRelation() calls. Fix, by rechecking _bt_search() after taking the relation-level SIREAD lock, if using SERIALIZABLE isolation and an empty btree is discovered. Back-patch to all supported releases.

* Fix marking of indisvalid for partitioned indexes at creationMichael Paquier2023-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic that introduced partitioned indexes missed a few things when invalidating a partitioned index when these are created, still the code is written to handle recursions: 1) If created from scratch because a mapping index could not be found, the new index created could be itself invalid, if for example it was a partitioned index with one of its leaves invalid. 2) A CCI was missing when indisvalid is set for a parent index, leading to inconsistent trees when recursing across more than one level for a partitioned index creation if an invalidation of the parent was required. This could lead to the creation of a partition index tree where some of the partitioned indexes are marked as invalid, but some of the parents are marked valid, which is not something that should happen (as validatePartitionedIndex() defines, indisvalid is switched to true for a partitioned index iff all its partitions are themselves valid). This patch makes sure that indisvalid is set to false on a partitioned index if at least one of its partition is invalid. The flag is set to true if *all* its partitions are valid. The regression test added in this commit abuses of a failed concurrent index creation, marked as invalid, that maps with an index created on its partitioned table afterwards.

* Fix order of operations in ExecEvalFieldStoreDeForm().Tom Lane2023-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the given composite datum is toasted out-of-line, DatumGetHeapTupleHeader will perform database accesses to detoast it. That can invalidate the result of get_cached_rowtype, as documented (perhaps not plainly enough) in that function's API spec; which leads to strange errors or crashes when we try to use the TupleDesc to read the tuple. In short then, trying to update a field of a composite column could fail intermittently if the overall column value is wide enough to require toasting. We can fix the bug at no cost by just changing the order of operations, since we don't need the TupleDesc until after detoasting. (Other callers of get_cached_rowtype appear to get this right already, so there's only one bug.) Note that the added regression test case reveals this bug reliably only with debug_discard_caches/CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS. Per bug #17994 from Alexander Lakhin. Sadly, this patch does not fix the missing-values issue revealed in the bug discussion; we'll need some more work to cover that. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17994-5c7100b51b4790e9@postgresql.org
