* Fix pgbench permute tests.Dean Rasheed2021-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | One of the tests for the pgbench permute() function added by 6b258e3d68 fails on some 32-bit platforms, due to variations in the floating point computations in getrand(). The remaining tests give sufficient coverage, so just remove the failing test. Reported by Christoph Berg. Analysis by Thomas Munro and Tom Lane. Based on patch by Fabien Coelho.

* Make standby promotion reset the recovery pause state to 'not paused'.Fujii Masao2021-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a promotion is triggered while recovery is paused, the paused state ends and promotion continues. But previously in that case pg_get_wal_replay_pause_state() returned 'paused' wrongly while a promotion was ongoing. This commit changes a standby promotion so that it marks the recovery pause state as 'not paused' when it's triggered, to fix the issue.

* Fix 020_messages.pl test.Amit Kapila2021-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were not waiting for a publisher to catch up with the subscriber after creating a subscription. Now, it can happen that apply worker starts replication even after we have disabled the subscription in the test. This will make the test expect that there is no active slot whereas there exists one. Fix this symptom by allowing the publisher to wait for catching up with the subscription. It is not a good idea to ensure if the slot is still active by checking for walsender existence as we release the slot after we clean up the walsender related memory. Fix that by checking the slot status in pg_replication_slots. Also, it is better to avoid repeated enabling/disabling of the subscription. Finally, we make autovacuum off for this test to avoid any empty transaction appearing in the test while consuming changes.

* Fix issues in pg_stat_wal.Fujii Masao2021-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Previously there were both pgstat_send_wal() and pgstat_report_wal() in order to send WAL activity to the stats collector. With the former being used by wal writer, the latter by most other processes. They were a bit redundant and so this commit merges them into pgstat_send_wal() to simplify the code. 2) Previously WAL global statistics counters were calculated and then compared with zero-filled buffer in order to determine whether any WAL activity has happened since the last submission. These calculation and comparison were not cheap. This was regularly exercised even in read-only workloads. This commit fixes the issue by making some WAL activity counters directly be checked to determine if there's WAL activity stats to send. 3) Previously pgstat_report_stat() did not check if there's WAL activity stats to send as part of the "Don't expend a clock check if nothing to do" check at the top. It's probably rare to have pending WAL stats without also passing one of the other conditions, but for safely this commit changes pgstat_report_stats() so that it checks also some WAL activity counters at the top. This commit also adds the comments about the design of WAL stats.

* Be more careful about barriers when releasing BackgroundWorkerSlots.Tom Lane2021-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ForgetBackgroundWorker lacked any memory barrier at all, while BackgroundWorkerStateChange had one but unaccountably did additional manipulation of the slot after the barrier. AFAICS, the rule must be that the barrier is immediately before setting or clearing slot->in_use. It looks like back in 9.6 when ForgetBackgroundWorker was first written, there might have been some case for not needing a barrier there, but I'm not very convinced of that --- the fact that the load of bgw_notify_pid is in the caller doesn't seem to guarantee no memory ordering problem. So patch 9.6 too. It's likely that this doesn't fix any observable bug on Intel hardware, but machines with weaker memory ordering rules could have problems here.

* Harden nbtree deduplication posting split code.Peter Geoghegan2021-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a defensive "can't happen" error to code that handles nbtree posting list splits (promote an existing assertion). This avoids a segfault in the event of an insertion of a newitem that is somehow identical to an existing non-pivot tuple in the index. An nbtree index should never have two index tuples with identical TIDs. This scenario is not particular unlikely in the event of any kind of corruption that leaves the index in an inconsistent state relative to the heap relation that is indexed. There are two known reports of preventable hard crashes. Doing nothing seems unacceptable given the general expectation that nbtree will cope reasonably well with corrupt data. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAH2-Wz=Jr_d-dOYEEmwz0-ifojVNWho01eAqewfQXgKfoe114w@mail.gmail.com Backpatch: 13-, where nbtree deduplication was introduced.
* Prevent infinite insertion loops in spgdoinsert().Tom Lane2021-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Formerly we just relied on operator classes that assert longValuesOK to eventually shorten the leaf value enough to fit on an index page. That fails since the introduction of INCLUDE-column support (commit 09c1c6ab4), because the INCLUDE columns might alone take up more than a page, meaning no amount of leaf-datum compaction will get the job done. At least with spgtextproc.c, that leads to an infinite loop, since spgtextproc.c won't throw an error for not being able to shorten the leaf datum anymore. To fix without breaking cases that would otherwise work, add logic to spgdoinsert() to verify that the leaf tuple size is decreasing after each "choose" step. Some opclasses might not decrease the size on every single cycle, and in any case, alignment roundoff of the tuple size could obscure small gains. Therefore, allow up to 10 cycles without additional savings before throwing an error. (Perhaps this number will need adjustment, but it seems quite generous right now.) As long as we've developed this logic, let's back-patch it. The back branches don't have INCLUDE columns to worry about, but this seems like a good defense against possible bugs in operator classes. We already know that an infinite loop here is pretty unpleasant, so having a defense seems to outweigh the risk of breaking things. (Note that spgtextproc.c is actually the only known opclass with longValuesOK support, so that this is all moot for known non-core opclasses anyway.) Per report from Dilip Kumar.

* Fix query-cancel handling in spgdoinsert().Tom Lane2021-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Knowing that a buggy opclass could cause an infinite insertion loop, spgdoinsert() intended to allow its loop to be interrupted by query cancel. However, that never actually worked, because in iterations after the first, we'd be holding buffer lock(s) which would cause InterruptHoldoffCount to be positive, preventing servicing of the interrupt. To fix, check if an interrupt is pending, and if so fall out of the insertion loop and service the interrupt after we've released the buffers. If it was indeed a query cancel, that's the end of the matter. If it was a non-canceling interrupt reason, make use of the existing provision to retry the whole insertion. (This isn't as wasteful as it might seem, since any upper-level index tuples we already created should be usable in the next attempt.) While there's no known instance of such a bug in existing release branches, it still seems like a good idea to back-patch this to all supported branches, since the behavior is fairly nasty if a loop does happen --- not only is it uncancelable, but it will quickly consume memory to the point of an OOM failure. In any case, this code is certainly not working as intended. Per report from Dilip Kumar. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFiTN-uxP_soPhVG840tRMQTBmtA_f_Y8N51G7DKYYqDh7XN-A@mail.gmail.com
* Refactor CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to add flexibility.Tom Lane2021-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split up CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to provide an additional macro INTERRUPTS_PENDING_CONDITION(), which just tests whether an interrupt is pending without attempting to service it. This is useful in situations where the caller knows that interrupts are blocked, and would like to find out if it's worth the trouble to unblock them. Also add INTERRUPTS_CAN_BE_PROCESSED(), which indicates whether CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() can be relied on to clear the pending interrupt. This commit doesn't actually add any uses of the new macros, but a follow-on bug fix will do so. Back-patch to all supported branches to provide infrastructure for that fix.

* 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.
