* Do jsonb regression test input in the conventional way.Andrew Dunstan2014-03-23
| | | | This should make the buildfarm happier.
* Fix mis-spelling in jsonb docs.Andrew Dunstan2014-03-23
| | | | Per Thom Brown.
* Introduce jsonb, a structured format for storing json.Andrew Dunstan2014-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new format accepts exactly the same data as the json type. However, it is stored in a format that does not require reparsing the orgiginal text in order to process it, making it much more suitable for indexing and other operations. Insignificant whitespace is discarded, and the order of object keys is not preserved. Neither are duplicate object keys kept - the later value for a given key is the only one stored. The new type has all the functions and operators that the json type has, with the exception of the json generation functions (to_json, json_agg etc.) and with identical semantics. In addition, there are operator classes for hash and btree indexing, and two classes for GIN indexing, that have no equivalent in the json type. This feature grew out of previous work by Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, which was intended to provide similar facilities to a nested hstore type, but which in the end proved to have some significant compatibility issues. Authors: Oleg Bartunov, Teodor Sigaev, Peter Geoghegan and Andrew Dunstan. Review: Andres Freund
* Don't test xmin/xmax columns of a postgres_fdw foreign table.Noah Misch2014-03-23
| | | | | | Their values are unspecified and system-dependent. Per buildfarm member kouprey.
* Offer triggers on foreign tables.Noah Misch2014-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This covers all the SQL-standard trigger types supported for regular tables; it does not cover constraint triggers. The approach for acquiring the old row mirrors that for view INSTEAD OF triggers. For AFTER ROW triggers, we spool the foreign tuples to a tuplestore. This changes the FDW API contract; when deciding which columns to populate in the slot returned from data modification callbacks, writable FDWs will need to check for AFTER ROW triggers in addition to checking for a RETURNING clause. In support of the feature addition, refactor the TriggerFlags bits and the assembly of old tuples in ModifyTable. Ronan Dunklau, reviewed by KaiGai Kohei; some additional hacking by me.
* Improve comments about AfterTriggerBeginQuery() query level usage.Noah Misch2014-03-23

* Address ccvalid/ccnoinherit in TupleDesc support functions.Noah Misch2014-03-23
| | | | | | | | | equalTupleDescs() neglected both of these ConstrCheck fields, and CreateTupleDescCopyConstr() neglected ccnoinherit. At this time, the only known behavior defect resulting from these omissions is constraint exclusion disregarding a CHECK constraint validated by an ALTER TABLE VALIDATE CONSTRAINT statement issued earlier in the same transaction. Back-patch to 9.2, where these fields were introduced.
* Fix thinkos in GinLogicValue enum.Heikki Linnakangas2014-03-21
| | | | | It was incorrectly declared as global variable, not an enum type, and the comments for GIN_FALSE and GIN_TRUE were backwards.
* Fix build with LWLOCK_STATS or dtrace.Heikki Linnakangas2014-03-21
| | | | | | | | Also fix the name of the dtrace probe for LWLockAcquireOrWait(). The function was renamed from LWLockWaitUntilFree to LWLockAqcuireOrWait, but the dtrace probe was neglected. Pointed out by Andres Freund and the buildfarm.

* Properly check for readdir/closedir() failuresBruce Momjian2014-03-21
| | | | | | | Clear errno before calling readdir() and handle old MinGW errno bug while adding full test coverage for readdir/closedir failures. Backpatch through 8.4.
* Replace the XLogInsert slots with regular LWLocks.Heikki Linnakangas2014-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | The special feature the XLogInsert slots had over regular LWLocks is the insertingAt value that was updated atomically with releasing backends waiting on it. Add new functions to the LWLock API to do that, and replace the slots with LWLocks. This reduces the amount of duplicated code. (There's still some duplication, but at least it's all in lwlock.c now.) Reviewed by Andres Freund.
* Again fix initialization of auto-tuned effective_cache_size.Tom Lane2014-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous method was overly complex and underly correct; in particular, by assigning the default value with PGC_S_OVERRIDE, it prevented later attempts to change the setting in postgresql.conf, as noted by Jeff Janes. We should just assign the default value with source PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT, which will have the desired priority relative to the boot_val as well as user-set values. There is still a gap in this method: if there's an explicit assignment of effective_cache_size = -1 in the postgresql.conf file, and that assignment appears before shared_buffers is assigned, the code will substitute 4 times the bootstrap default for shared_buffers, and that value will then persist (since it will have source PGC_S_FILE). I don't see any very nice way to avoid that though, and it's not a case to be expected in practice. The existing comments in guc-file.l look forward to a redesign of the DYNAMIC_DEFAULT mechanism; if that ever happens, we should consider this case as one of the things we'd like to improve.
* libpq: pass a memory allocation failure error up to PQconndefaults()Bruce Momjian2014-03-20

* Setup error context callback for transaction lock waitsAlvaro Herrera2014-03-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this in place, a session blocking behind another one because of tuple locks will get a context line mentioning the relation name, tuple TID, and operation being done on tuple. For example: LOG: process 11367 still waiting for ShareLock on transaction 717 after 1000.108 ms DETAIL: Process holding the lock: 11366. Wait queue: 11367. CONTEXT: while updating tuple (0,2) in relation "foo" STATEMENT: UPDATE foo SET value = 3; Most usefully, the new line is displayed by log entries due to log_lock_waits, although of course it will be printed by any other log message as well.

* Fix memory leak during regular expression execution.Tom Lane2014-03-19
| | | | | | | | For a regex containing backrefs, pg_regexec() might fail to free all the sub-DFAs that were created during execution, resulting in a permanent (session lifespan) memory leak. Problem was introduced by me in commit 587359479acbbdc95c8e37da40707e37097423f5. Per report from Sandro Santilli; diagnosis by Greg Stark.
* Some minor improvements to logical decoding document.Fujii Masao2014-03-19
| | | | Also improve help message in pg_recvlogical.
* Fix compilation of pg_xlogdump, now that rm_safe_restartpoint is no more.Heikki Linnakangas2014-03-18
| | | | Oops. Pointed out by Andres Freund.
* Remove rm_safe_restartpoint machinery.Heikki Linnakangas2014-03-18
| | | | | | | | | It is no longer used, none of the resource managers have multi-record actions that would make it unsafe to perform a restartpoint. Also don't allow rm_cleanup to write WAL records, it's also no longer required. Move the call to rm_cleanup routines to make it more symmetric with rm_startup.

* Make the handling of interrupted B-tree page splits more robust.Heikki Linnakangas2014-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Splitting a page consists of two separate steps: splitting the child page, and inserting the downlink for the new right page to the parent. Previously, we handled the case that you crash in between those steps with a cleanup routine after the WAL recovery had finished, which finished the incomplete split. However, that doesn't help if the page split is interrupted but the database doesn't crash, so that you don't perform WAL recovery. That could happen for example if you run out of disk space. Remove the end-of-recovery cleanup step. Instead, when a page is split, the left page is marked with a new INCOMPLETE_SPLIT flag, and when the downlink is inserted to the parent, the flag is cleared again. If an insertion sees a page with the flag set, it knows that the split was interrupted for some reason, and inserts the missing downlink before proceeding. I used the same approach to fix GIN and GiST split algorithms earlier. This was the last WAL cleanup routine, so we could get rid of that whole machinery now, but I'll leave that for a separate patch. Reviewed by Peter Geoghegan.

* test_shm_mq: Use Size rather than uint64.Robert Haas2014-03-18
| | | | | | | Commit 3bd261ca18c67eafe18088e58fab511e3b965418 updated the API but neglected to make the corresponding edits here. Per Tom Lane and the buildfarm.

* Rewrite comment for shm_mq_receive_bytes.Robert Haas2014-03-18
| | | | | | | The comment and the code diverged at some point before the initial commit of this feature, and I failed to notice. Noted by Tom Lane.
* Fix relcache reference leak in refresh_by_match_merge().Tom Lane2014-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | One path through the loop over indexes forgot to do index_close(). Rather than adding a fourth call, restructure slightly so that there's only one. In passing, get rid of an unnecessary syscache lookup: the pg_index struct for the index is already available from its relcache entry. Per report from YAMAMOTO Takashi, though this is a bit different from his suggested patch. This is new code in HEAD, so no need for back-patch.
* Improve shm_mq portability around MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF and sizeof(Size).Robert Haas2014-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | Revise the original decision to expose a uint64-based interface and use Size everywhere possible. Avoid assuming that MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF is 8, or making any assumption about the relationship between that value and sizeof(Size). If MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF is bigger, we'll now insert padding after the length word; if it's smaller, we are now prepared to read and write the length word in chunks. Per discussion with Tom Lane.
* Fix pg_dumpall option parsing: -i doesn't take an argument.Tom Lane2014-03-18
| | | | | | This used to work properly, but got fat-fingered in commit 3dee636e0404885d07885d41c0d70e50c784f324. Per bug #9620 from Nicolas Payart.

* Make it easy to detach completely from shared memory.Robert Haas2014-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | The new function dsm_detach_all() can be used either by postmaster children that don't wish to take any risk of accidentally corrupting shared memory; or by forked children of regular backends with the same need. This patch also updates the postmaster children that already do PGSharedMemoryDetach() to do dsm_detach_all() as well. Per discussion with Tom Lane.

* During index build, check and elog (not just Assert) for broken HOT chain.Tom Lane2014-03-17
| | | | | | | The recently-fixed bug in WAL replay could result in not finding a parent tuple for a heap-only tuple. The existing code would either Assert or generate an invalid index entry, neither of which is desirable. Throw a regular error instead.

* Fix bug in clean shutdown of walsender that pg_receiving is connecting to.Fujii Masao2014-03-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On clean shutdown, walsender waits for all WAL to be replicated to a standby, and exits. It determined whether that replication had been completed by checking whether its sent location had been equal to a standby's flush location. Unfortunately this condition never becomes true when the standby such as pg_receivexlog which always returns an invalid flush location is connecting to walsender, and then walsender waits forever. This commit changes walsender so that it just checks a standby's write location if a flush location is invalid. Back-patch to 9.1 where enough infrastructure for this exists.

* Fix unportable shell-script syntax in pg_upgrade's test.sh.Tom Lane2014-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I discovered the hard way that on some old shells, the locution FOO="" unset FOO does not behave the same as FOO=""; unset FOO and in fact leaves FOO set to an empty string. test.sh was inconsistently spelling it different ways on adjacent lines. This got broken relatively recently, in commit c737a2e56, so the lack of field reports to date doesn't represent a lot of evidence that the problem is rare.

* Fix advertised dispsize for libpq's sslmode connection parameter.Tom Lane2014-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | "8" was correct back when "disable" was the longest allowed value, but since "verify-full" was added, it should be "12". Given the lack of complaints, I wouldn't be surprised if nobody is actually using these values ... but still, if they're in the API, they should be right. Noticed while pursuing a different problem. It's been wrong for quite a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.
* Cleanups from the remove-native-krb5 patchMagnus Hagander2014-03-16

It's still used in libpq for client side specification. In passing remove declaration of krb_server_hostname, where all the functionality was already removed. Noted by Stephen Frost, though a different solution than his suggestion
