* Fix EXPLAIN ANALYZE for async-capable nodes.Etsuro Fujita2021-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EXPLAIN ANALYZE for an async-capable ForeignScan node associated with postgres_fdw is done just by using instrumentation for ExecProcNode() called from the node's callbacks, causing the following problems: 1) If the remote table to scan is empty, the node is incorrectly considered as "never executed" by the command even if the node is executed, as ExecProcNode() isn't called from the node's callbacks at all in that case. 2) The command fails to collect timings for things other than ExecProcNode() done in the node, such as creating a cursor for the node's remote query. To fix these problems, add instrumentation for async-capable nodes, and modify postgres_fdw accordingly. My oversight in commit 27e1f1456. While at it, update a comment for the AsyncRequest struct in execnodes.h and the documentation for the ForeignAsyncRequest API in fdwhandler.sgml to match the code in ExecAsyncAppendResponse() in nodeAppend.c, and fix typos in comments in nodeAppend.c. Per report from Andrey Lepikhov, though I didn't use his patch. Reviewed-by: Andrey Lepikhov Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2eb662bb-105d-fc20-7412-2f027cc3ca72%40postgrespro.ru
* Reduce runtime of privileges.sql test under CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS.Tom Lane2021-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several queries in the privileges regression test cause the planner to apply the plpgsql function "leak()" to every element of the histogram for atest12.b. Since commit 0c882e52a increased the size of that histogram to 10000 entries, the test invokes that function over 100000 times, which takes an absolutely unreasonable amount of time in clobber-cache-always mode. However, there's no real reason why that has to be a plpgsql function: for the purposes of this test, all that matters is that it not be marked leakproof. So we can replace the plpgsql implementation with a direct call of int4lt, which has the same behavior and is orders of magnitude faster. This is expected to cut several hours off the buildfarm cycle time for CCA animals. It has some positive impact in normal builds too, though that's probably lost in the noise. Back-patch to v13 where 0c882e52a came in. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/575884.1620626638@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Change data type of counters in BufferUsage and WalUsage from long to int64.Fujii Masao2021-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously long was used as the data type for some counters in BufferUsage and WalUsage. But long is only four byte, e.g., on Windows, and it's entirely possible to wrap a four byte counter. For example, emitting more than four billion WAL records in one transaction isn't actually particularly rare. To avoid the overflows of those counters, this commit changes the data type of them from long to int64.

* Get rid of the separate serial_schedule list of tests.Tom Lane2021-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | Having to maintain two lists of regression test scripts has proven annoyingly error-prone. We can achieve the effect of the serial_schedule by running the parallel_schedule with "--max_connections=1"; so do that and remove serial_schedule. This causes cosmetic differences in the progress output, but it doesn't seem worth restructuring pg_regress to avoid that. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/899209.1620759506@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Replace opr_sanity test's binary_coercible() function with C code.Tom Lane2021-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | opr_sanity's binary_coercible() function has always been meant to match the parser's notion of binary coercibility, but it also has always been a rather poor approximation of the parser's real rules (as embodied in IsBinaryCoercible()). That hasn't bit us so far, but it's predictable that it will eventually. It also now emerges that implementing this check in plpgsql performs absolutely horribly in clobber-cache-always testing. (Perhaps we could do something about that, but I suspect it just means that plpgsql is exploiting catalog caching to the hilt.) Hence, let's replace binary_coercible() with a C shim that directly invokes IsBinaryCoercible(), eliminating both the semantic hazard and the performance issue. Most of regress.c's C functions are declared in create_function_1, but we can't simply move that to before opr_sanity/type_sanity since those tests would complain about the resulting shell types. I chose to split it into create_function_0 and create_function_1. Since create_function_0 now runs as part of a parallel group while create_function_1 doesn't, reduce the latter to create just those functions that opr_sanity and type_sanity would whine about. To make room for create_function_0 in the second parallel group of tests, move tstypes to the third parallel group. In passing, clean up some ordering deviations between parallel_schedule and serial_schedule. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/292305.1620503097@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Add support for LZ4 build in MSVC scriptsMichael Paquier2021-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since its introduction in bbe0a81, compression of table data supports LZ4, but nothing had been done within the MSVC scripts to allow users to build the code with this library. This commit closes the gap by extending the MSVC scripts to be able to build optionally with LZ4. Getting libraries that can be used for compilation and execution is possible as LZ4 can be compiled down to MSVC 2010 using its source tarball. MinGW may require extra efforts to be able to work, and I have been able to test this only with MSVC, still this is better than nothing to give users a way to test the feature on Windows.

* Fix mishandling of resjunk columns in ON CONFLICT ... UPDATE tlists.Tom Lane2021-05-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's unusual to have any resjunk columns in an ON CONFLICT ... UPDATE list, but it can happen when MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK SubPlans are present. If it happens, the ON CONFLICT UPDATE code path would end up storing tuples that include the values of the extra resjunk columns. That's fairly harmless in the short run, but if new columns are added to the table then the values would become accessible, possibly leading to malfunctions if they don't match the datatypes of the new columns. This had escaped notice through a confluence of missing sanity checks, including * There's no cross-check that a tuple presented to heap_insert or heap_update matches the table rowtype. While it's difficult to check that fully at reasonable cost, we can easily add assertions that there aren't too many columns. * The output-column-assignment cases in execExprInterp.c lacked any sanity checks on the output column numbers, which seems like an oversight considering there are plenty of assertion checks on input column numbers. Add assertions there too. * We failed to apply nodeModifyTable's ExecCheckPlanOutput() to the ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlist. That wouldn't have caught this specific error, since that function is chartered to ignore resjunk columns; but it sure seems like a bad omission now that we've seen this bug. In HEAD, the right way to fix this is to make the processing of ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlists work the same as regular UPDATE tlists now do, that is don't add "SET x = x" entries, and use ExecBuildUpdateProjection to evaluate the tlist and combine it with old values of the not-set columns. This adds a little complication to ExecBuildUpdateProjection, but allows removal of a comparable amount of now-dead code from the planner. In the back branches, the most expedient solution seems to be to (a) use an output slot for the ON CONFLICT UPDATE projection that actually matches the target table, and then (b) invent a variant of ExecBuildProjectionInfo that can be told to not store values resulting from resjunk columns, so it doesn't try to store into nonexistent columns of the output slot. (We can't simply ignore the resjunk columns altogether; they have to be evaluated for MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK to work.) This works back to v10. In 9.6, projections work much differently and we can't cheaply give them such an option. The 9.6 version of this patch works by inserting a JunkFilter when it's necessary to get rid of resjunk columns. In addition, v11 and up have the reverse problem when trying to perform ON CONFLICT UPDATE on a partitioned table. Through a further oversight, adjust_partition_tlist() discarded resjunk columns when re-ordering the ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlist to match a partition. This accidentally prevented the storing-bogus-tuples problem, but at the cost that MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK cases didn't work, typically crashing if more than one row has to be updated. Fix by preserving resjunk columns in that routine. (I failed to resist the temptation to add more assertions there too, and to do some minor code beautification.) Per report from Andres Freund. Back-patch to all supported branches. Security: CVE-2021-32028
* Prevent integer overflows in array subscripting calculations.Tom Lane2021-05-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While we were (mostly) careful about ensuring that the dimensions of arrays aren't large enough to cause integer overflow, the lower bound values were generally not checked. This allows situations where lower_bound + dimension overflows an integer. It seems that that's harmless so far as array reading is concerned, except that array elements with subscripts notionally exceeding INT_MAX are inaccessible. However, it confuses various array-assignment logic, resulting in a potential for memory stomps. Fix by adding checks that array lower bounds aren't large enough to cause lower_bound + dimension to overflow. (Note: this results in disallowing cases where the last subscript position would be exactly INT_MAX. In principle we could probably allow that, but there's a lot of code that computes lower_bound + dimension and would need adjustment. It seems doubtful that it's worth the trouble/risk to allow it.) Somewhat independently of that, array_set_element() was careless about possible overflow when checking the subscript of a fixed-length array, creating a different route to memory stomps. Fix that too. Security: CVE-2021-32027

* Add more TAP tests for pg_dump with attribute compressionMichael Paquier2021-05-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some relations with LZ4 used as the toast compression methods have been left around in the main regression test suite to stress pg_upgrade, but pg_dump, that includes tests much more picky in terms of output generated, had no actual coverage with this feature. Similarly to collations, tests only working with LZ4 are tracked with an additional flag, and this uses TestLib::check_pg_config() to check if the build supports LZ4 or not.

* Move memory accounting Asserts for Result Cache codeDavid Rowley2021-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 9eacee2e6, I included some code to verify the cache's memory tracking is correct by counting up the number of entries and the memory they use each time we evict something from the cache. Those values are then compared to the expected values using Assert. The problem is that this requires looping over the entire cache hash table each time we evict an entry from the cache. That can be pretty expensive, as noted by Pavel Stehule. Here we move this memory accounting checking code so that we only verify it on cassert builds once when shutting down the Result Cache node. Aside from the performance increase, this has two distinct advantages: 1) We do the memory checks at the last possible moment before destroying the cache. This means we'll now catch accounting problems that might sneak in after a cache eviction. 2) We now do the memory Assert checks when there were no cache evictions. This increases the coverage. One small disadvantage is that we'll now miss any memory tracking issues that somehow managed to resolve themselves by the end of execution. However, it seems to me that such a memory tracking problem would be quite unlikely, and likely somewhat less harmful if one were to exist. In passing, adjust the loop over the hash table to use the standard simplehash.h method of iteration.

* Sync guc.c and postgresql.conf.sample with the SGML docs.Tom Lane2021-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems that various people have moved GUCs around in the config.sgml listing without bothering to make the code agree. Ensure that the config_group codes assigned to GUCs match where they are listed in config.sgml. Likewise ensure that postgresql.conf.sample lists GUCs in the same sub-section and same ordering as they appear in config.sgml. (I've got some doubts about some of these choices, but for the purposes of this patch, we'll treat config.sgml as gospel.) Notably, this requires adding a WAL_RECOVERY config_group value, because 1d257577e didn't. As long as we're renumbering that enum anyway, let's take out the values corresponding to major groups that are divided into sub-groups. No GUC should be assigned to the major group itself, so those values just create a temptation to do the wrong thing, while adding work for translators. In passing, adjust the short_desc strings for PRESET_OPTIONS GUCs to uniformly use the phrasing "Shows XYZ.", removing the impression some of these strings left that you can set the value. While some of these errors are old, no back-patch, as changing the contents of the pg_settings view in stable branches seems more likely to be seen as a compatibility break than anything helpful.

* Track detached partitions more accurately in partdescsAlvaro Herrera2021-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In d6b8d29419df I (Álvaro) was sloppy about recording whether a partition descripor does or does not include detached partitions, when the snapshot checking does not see the pg_inherits row marked detached. In that case no partition was omitted, yet in the relcache entry we were saving the partdesc as omitting partitions. Flip that (so we save it as a partdesc not omitting partitions, which indeed it doesn't), which hopefully makes the code easier to reason about.

* Additional doc fixes for configurable TOAST compression.Robert Haas2021-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The grammar changes in commit bbe0a81db69bd10bd166907c3701492a29aca294 allow SET COMPRESSION to be used with ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW as well as with ALTER TABLE, so update those docs to say that it works. Also, update the documentation for the pg_column_compression() to explain that it will return NULL when there's no relevant value. Patch by me, per concerns from Michael Paquier.

* Update replication statistics after every stream/spill.Amit Kapila2021-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, replication slot statistics are updated at prepare, commit, and rollback. Now, if the transaction is interrupted the stats might not get updated. Fixed this by updating replication statistics after every stream/spill. In passing update the docs to change the description of some of the slot stats.
