* Rework compression options of pg_receivewalMichael Paquier2022-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since babbbb5 and the introduction of LZ4 in pg_receivewal, the compression of the WAL archived is controlled by two options: - --compression-method with "gzip", "none" or "lz4" as possible value. - --compress=N to specify a compression level. This includes a backward-incompatible change where a value of 0 leads to a failure instead of no compression enforced. This commit takes advantage of a4b5754 and 3603f7c to rework the compression options of pg_receivewal, as of: - The removal of --compression-method. - The extenction of --compress to use the same grammar as pg_basebackup, with a METHOD:DETAIL format, where a METHOD is "gzip", "none" or "lz4" and a DETAIL is a comma-separated list of options, the only keyword supported is now "level" to control the compression level. If only an integer is specified as value of this option, "none" is implied on 0 and "gzip" is implied otherwise. This brings back --compress to be backward-compatible with ~14, while still supporting LZ4. This has also the advantage of centralizing the set of checks used by pg_receivewal to validate its compression options.

* Doc: tweak textsearch.sgml for SEO purposes.Tom Lane2022-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Google seems to like to return textsearch.html for queries about GIN and GiST indexes, even though it's not a primary reference for either. It seems likely that that's because those keywords appear in the page title. Since "GIN and GiST Index Types" is not a very apposite title for this material anyway, rename the section in hopes of stopping that. Also provide explicit links to the GIN and GiST chapters, to help anyone who finds their way to this page regardless. Per gripe from Jan Piotrowski. Back-patch to supported branches. (Unfortunately Google is likely to continue returning the 9.1 version of this page, but improving that situation is a matter for the www team.)

* Remove not-very-useful early checks of __pg_log_level in logging.h.Tom Lane2022-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Enforce __pg_log_level message filtering centrally in logging.c, instead of relying on the calling macros to do it. This is more reliable (e.g. it works correctly for direct calls to pg_log_generic) and it saves a percent or so of total code size because we get rid of so many duplicate checks of __pg_log_level. This does mean that argument expressions in a logging macro will be evaluated even if we end up not printing anything. That seems of little concern for INFO and higher levels as those messages are printed by default, and most of our frontend programs don't even offer a way to turn them off. I left the unlikely() checks in place for DEBUG messages, though. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3993549.1649449609@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Doc: update description of random() function.Tom Lane2022-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3804539e4 neglected to update the documentation's claim that random() uses a "linear congruential algorithm". In hopes of avoiding the same mistake if someone replaces our PRNG again, just say it's a deterministic pseudo-random number generator and leave it at that. Anybody who really wants to know can look in the source code. COMPATIBILITY NOTE FOR RELEASE NOTES: 3804539e4's commit message really should have mentioned that the random() sequence after setseed(), while still repeatable, will differ from what you got in pre-v15 releases.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The same structure, with the same set of elements (for none, lz4, gzip and zstd), exists in compression.h, so let's make use of the centralized version instead of duplicating things.

* Change mechanism to set up source targetlist in MERGEAlvaro Herrera2022-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were setting MERGE source subplan's targetlist by expanding the individual attributes of the source relation completely, early in the parse analysis phase. This failed to work when the condition of an action included a whole-row reference, causing setrefs.c to error out with ERROR: variable not found in subplan target lists because at that point there is nothing to resolve the whole-row reference with. We can fix this by having preprocess_targetlist expand the source targetlist for Vars required from the source rel by all actions. Moreover, by using this expansion mechanism we can do away with the targetlist expansion in transformMergeStmt, which is good because then we no longer pull in columns that aren't needed for anything. Add a test case for the problem. While at it, remove some redundant code in preprocess_targetlist(): MERGE was doing separately what is already being done for UPDATE/DELETE, so we can just rely on the latter and remove the former. (The handling of inherited rels was different for MERGE, but that was a no-longer- necessary hack.) Fix outdated, related comments for fix_join_expr also.

* Rename backup_compression.{c,h} to compression.{c,h}Michael Paquier2022-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compression option handling (level, algorithm or even workers) can be used across several parts of the system and not only base backups. Structures, objects and routines are renamed in consequence, to remove the concept of base backups from this part of the code making this change straight-forward. pg_receivewal, that has gained support for LZ4 since babbbb5, will make use of this infrastructure for its set of compression options, bringing more consistency with pg_basebackup. This cleanup needs to be done before releasing a beta of 15. pg_dump is a potential future target, as well, and adding more compression options to it may happen in 16~.

* Make XLogRecGetBlockTag() throw error if there's no such block.Tom Lane2022-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All but a few existing callers assume without checking that this function succeeds. While it probably will, that's a poor excuse for not checking. Let's make it return void and instead throw an error if it doesn't find the block reference. Callers that actually need to handle the no-such-block case must now use the underlying function XLogRecGetBlockTagExtended. In addition to being a bit less error-prone, this should also serve to suppress some Coverity complaints about XLogRecGetBlockRefInfo. While at it, clean up some inconsistency about use of the XLogRecHasBlockRef macro: make XLogRecGetBlockTagExtended use that instead of open-coding the same condition, and avoid calling XLogRecHasBlockRef twice in relevant code paths. (That is, calling XLogRecHasBlockRef followed by XLogRecGetBlockTag is now deprecated: use XLogRecGetBlockTagExtended instead.) Patch HEAD only; this doesn't seem to have enough value to consider a back-branch API break. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/425039.1649701221@sss.pgh.pa.us

* psql: Fix translation markingPeter Eisentraut2022-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5a2832465fd8984d089e8c44c094e6900d987fcd added addFooterToPublicationDesc() as a wrapper around printTableAddFooter(). The translation marker _() was moved to the body of addFooterToPublicationDesc(), but addFooterToPublicationDesc() was not added to GETTEXT_TRIGGERS, so those strings were lost for translation. To fix, add the translation markers to the call sites of addFooterToPublicationDesc() and remove the translation marker from the body of the function. This seems easiest since there were only two callers and it keeps the API consistent with printTableAddFooter(). While we're here, add some const decorations to the prototype of addFooterToPublicationDesc() for consistency with printTableAddFooter().
