* Optimize PredicateLockTuple().Thomas Munro2019-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | PredicateLockTuple() has a fast exit if tuple was written by the current transaction, as in that case it already has a lock. This check can be performed using TransactionIdIsCurrentTransactionId() instead of SubTransGetTopmostTransaction(), to avoid any chance of having to hit the disk.

* Optimize TransactionIdIsCurrentTransactionId().Thomas Munro2019-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | If the passed in xid is the current top transaction, we can do a fast check and exit early. This should work well for the current heap but also works very well for proposed AMs that don't use a separate xid for subtransactions.

* Fix negative bitmapset member not allowed error in logical replicationPeter Eisentraut2019-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This happens when we add a replica identity column on a subscriber that does not yet exist on the publisher, according to the mapping maintained by the subscriber. Code that checks whether the target relation on the subscriber is updatable would check the replica identity attribute bitmap with a column number -1, which would result in an error. To fix, skip such columns in the bitmap lookup and consider the relation not updatable. The result is consistent with the rule that the replica identity columns on the subscriber must be a subset of those on the publisher, since if the column doesn't exist on the publisher, the column set on the subscriber can't be a subset.

Backtraces are shown on assertion failure; also, a new setting backtrace_functions can be set to a list of C function names, and all ereport()s and elog()s from the mentioned functions will have backtraces generated.

* Use "low key" terminology in nbtsort.c.Peter Geoghegan2019-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | nbtree index builds once stashed the "minimum key" for a page, which was used as the basis of the pivot tuple that gets placed in the next level up (i.e. the tuple that stores the downlink to the page in question). It doesn't quite work that way anymore, so the "minimum key" terminology now seems misleading (these days the minimum key is actually a straight copy of the high key from the left sibling, which is a distinct thing in subtle but important ways). Rename this concept to "low key". This name is a lot clearer given that there is now a sharp distinction between pivot and non-pivot tuples. Also remove comments that describe obsolete details about how the minimum key concept used to work. Rather than generating the minus infinity item for the leftmost page on a level by copying the new item and truncating that copy, simply allocate a small buffer. The old approach confusingly created the impression that the new item had some kind of significance. This was another artifact of how things used to work before commits 8224de4f and dd299df8.

* Move declaration of ecpg_gettext() to a saner place.Tom Lane2019-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Declaring this in the client-visible header ecpglib.h was a pretty poor decision. It's not meant to be application-callable (and if it was, putting it outside the extern "C" { ... } wrapper means that C++ clients would fail to call it). And the declaration would not even compile for a client, anyway, since it would not have the macro pg_attribute_format_arg(). Fortunately, it seems that no clients have tried to include this header with ENABLE_NLS defined, or we'd have gotten complaints about that. But we have no business putting such a restriction on client code. Move the declaration to ecpglib_extern.h, since in fact nothing outside src/interfaces/ecpg/ecpglib/ needs to call it. The practical effect of this is just that clients can now safely #include ecpglib.h while having ENABLE_NLS defined, but that seems like enough of a reason to back-patch it.

* Fix SET CONSTRAINTS .. DEFERRED on partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2019-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SET CONSTRAINTS ... DEFERRED failed on partitioned tables, because of a sanity check that ensures that the affected constraints have triggers. On partitioned tables, the triggers are in the leaf partitions, not in the partitioned relations themselves, so the sanity check fails. Removing the sanity check solves the problem, because the code needed to support the case is already there. Backpatch to 11. Note: deferred unique constraints are not affected by this bug, because they do have triggers in the parent partitioned table. I did not add a test for this scenario.

* Allow sampling of statements depending on durationTomas Vondra2019-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows logging a sample of statements, without incurring excessive log traffic (which may impact performance). This can be useful when analyzing workloads with lots of short queries. The sampling is configured using two new GUC parameters: * log_min_duration_sample - minimum required statement duration * log_statement_sample_rate - sample rate (0.0 - 1.0) Only statements with duration exceeding log_min_duration_sample are considered for sampling. To enable sampling, both those GUCs have to be set correctly. The existing log_min_duration_statement GUC has a higher priority, i.e. statements with duration exceeding log_min_duration_statement will be always logged, irrespectedly of how the sampling is configured. This means only configurations log_min_duration_sample < log_min_duration_statement do actually sample the statements, instead of logging everything.

* Minor code review for tuple slot rewrite.Tom Lane2019-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid creating transiently-inconsistent slot states where possible, by not setting TTS_FLAG_SHOULDFREE until after the slot actually has a free'able tuple pointer, and by making sure that we reset tts_nvalid and related derived state before we replace the tuple contents. This would only matter if something were to examine the slot after we'd suffered some kind of error (e.g. out of memory) while manipulating the slot. We typically don't do that, so these changes might just be cosmetic --- but even if so, it seems like good future-proofing. Also remove some redundant Asserts, and add a couple for consistency.

* Sync our DTrace infrastructure with c.h's definition of type bool.Tom Lane2019-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit d26a810eb, we've defined bool as being either _Bool from <stdbool.h>, or "unsigned char"; but that commit overlooked the fact that probes.d has "#define bool char". For consistency, make it say "unsigned char" instead. This should be strictly a cosmetic change, but it seems best to be in sync. Formally, in the now-normal case where we're using <stdbool.h>, it'd be better to write "#define bool _Bool". However, then we'd need some build infrastructure to inject that configuration choice into probes.d, and it doesn't seem worth the trouble. We only use <stdbool.h> if sizeof(_Bool) is 1, so having DTrace think that bool parameters are "unsigned char" should be close enough. Back-patch to v12 where d26a810eb came in.

* Fix timestamp of sent message for write context in logical decodingMichael Paquier2019-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When sending data for logical decoding using the streaming replication protocol via a WAL sender, the timestamp of the sent write message is allocated at the beginning of the message when preparing for the write, and actually computed when the write message is ready to be sent. The timestamp was getting computed after sending the message. This impacts anything using logical decoding, causing for example logical replication to report mostly NULL for last_msg_send_time in pg_stat_subscription.

* Request small targetlist for input to WindowAgg.Andrew Gierth2019-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | WindowAgg will potentially store large numbers of input rows into tuplestores to allow access to other rows in the frame. If the input is coming via an explicit Sort node, then unneeded columns will already have been discarded (since Sort requests a small tlist); but there are idioms like COUNT(*) OVER () that result in the input not being sorted at all, and cases where the input is being sorted by some means other than a Sort; if we don't request a small tlist, then WindowAgg's storage requirement is inflated by the unneeded columns.

* Make StringInfo available to frontend code.Andres Freund2019-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's plenty places in frontend code that could benefit from a string buffer implementation. Some because it yields simpler and faster code, and some others because of the desire to share code between backend and frontend. While there is a string buffer implementation available to frontend code, libpq's PQExpBuffer, it is clunkier than stringinfo, it introduces a libpq dependency, doesn't allow for sharing between frontend and backend code, and has a higher API/ABI stability requirement due to being exposed via libpq. Therefore it seems best to just making StringInfo being usable by frontend code. There's not much to do for that, except for rewriting two subsequent elog/ereport calls into others types of error reporting, and deciding on a maximum string length. For the maximum string size I decided to privately define MaxAllocSize to the same value as used in the backend. It seems likely that we'll want to reconsider this for both backend and frontend code in the not too far away future. For now I've left stringinfo.h in lib/, rather than common/, to reduce the likelihood of unnecessary breakage. We could alternatively decide to provide a redirecting stringinfo.h in lib/, or just not provide compatibility.

* Avoid logging complaints about abandoned connections when using PAM.Tom Lane2019-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a long time (since commit aed378e8d) we have had a policy to log nothing about a connection if the client disconnects when challenged for a password. This is because libpq-using clients will typically do that, and then come back for a new connection attempt once they've collected a password from their user, so that logging the abandoned connection attempt will just result in log spam. However, this did not work well for PAM authentication: the bottom-level function pam_passwd_conv_proc() was on board with it, but we logged messages at higher levels anyway, for lack of any reporting mechanism. Add a flag and tweak the logic so that the case is silent, as it is for other password-using auth mechanisms. Per complaint from Yoann La Cancellera.

* Generate EquivalenceClass members for partitionwise child join rels.Tom Lane2019-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit d25ea0127 got rid of what I thought were entirely unnecessary derived child expressions in EquivalenceClasses for EC members that mention multiple baserels. But it turns out that some of the child expressions that code created are necessary for partitionwise joins, else we fail to find matching pathkeys for Sort nodes. (This happens only for certain shapes of the resulting plan; it may be that partitionwise aggregation is also necessary to show the failure, though I'm not sure of that.) Reverting that commit entirely would be quite painful performance-wise for large partition sets. So instead, add code that explicitly generates child expressions that match only partitionwise child join rels we have actually generated. Per report from Justin Pryzby.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Historically, the code to build relation options has been shaped the same way in multiple code paths by using a set of datums in input with the options parsed with a static table which is then filled with the option values. This introduces a new common routine in reloptions.c to do most of the legwork for the in-core code paths.

* Stabilize pg_dump output order for similarly-named triggers and policies.Tom Lane2019-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code only compared two triggers' names and namespaces (the latter being the owning table's schema). This could result in falling back to an OID-based sort of similarly-named triggers on different tables. We prefer to avoid that, so add a comparison of the table names too. (The sort order is thus table namespace, trigger name, table name, which is a bit odd, but it doesn't seem worth contorting the code to work around that.) Likewise for policy objects, in 9.5 and up. Complaint and fix by Benjie Gillam. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAMThMzEEt2mvBbPgCaZ1Ap1N-moGn=Edxmadddjq89WG4NpPtQ@mail.gmail.com
* Fix ginEntryInsert's counting of GIN leaf tuples.Tom Lane2019-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As the code stands, nEntries counts the number of ginEntryInsert() calls, so that's what you end up with at the end of a GIN index build. However, ginvacuumcleanup() recomputes nEntries as the number of surviving leaf tuples, and that's generally consistent with the way that gincostestimate() uses the value. So let's clearly define nEntries as the number of leaf tuples, and therefore adjust ginEntryInsert() to increment it only when we make a new one, not when we add TIDs into an existing tuple or posting tree. In practice this inconsistency probably has little impact, so I don't feel a need to back-patch.

* Fix some compiler warnings on older compilersPeter Eisentraut2019-11-04
| | | | | | | | | Some older compilers appear to not understand the recently introduced PG_FINALLY code structure that well in some circumstances and complain about possibly uninitialized variables. So to fix, initialize the variables explicitly in the cases complained about. Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/95a822c3-728b-af0e-d7e5-71890507ae0c%402ndquadrant.com
* Catch invalid typlens in a couple of placesPeter Eisentraut2019-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | Rearrange the logic in record_image_cmp() and datum_image_eq() to error out on unexpected typlens (either not supported there or completely invalid due to corruption). Barring corruption, this is not possible today but it seems more future-proof and robust to fix this. Reported-by: Peter Geoghegan <pg@bowt.ie>
* Suppress warning from older compilers.Tom Lane2019-11-03
| | | | | | | | Commit 8af1624e3 introduced a warning about possibly returning without a value, on compilers that don't realize that ereport(ERROR) doesn't return. Tweak the code to avoid that. Per buildfarm. Back-patch to 9.6, like the aforesaid commit.
* Fix PG_GETARG_SEG_P() definition.Tom Lane2019-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | DatumGetPointer() takes a Datum argument, not a pointer. This is cosmetic given the current definitions of the underlying macros, but it's still formally a type violation. Bug was introduced in commit 389bb2818, but there seems no need to back-patch. Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/d8jlfsxq3a0.fsf@dalvik.ping.uio.no
