* Move pg_lzcompress.c to src/common.Fujii Masao2014-12-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | Exposing compression and decompression APIs of pglz makes possible its use by extensions and contrib modules. pglz_decompress contained a call to elog to emit an error message in case of corrupted data. This function is changed to return a status code to let its callers return an error instead. This commit is required for upcoming WAL compression feature so that the WAL reader facility can decompress the WAL data by using pglz_decompress. Michael Paquier
* Add CST (China Standard Time) to our lists of timezone abbreviations.Tom Lane2014-12-24
| | | | | | | | | For some reason this seems to have been missed when the lists in src/timezone/tznames/ were first constructed. We can't put it in Default because of the conflict with US CST, but we should certainly list it among the alternative entries in Asia.txt. (I checked for other oversights, but all the other abbreviations that are in current use according to the IANA files seem to be accounted for.) Noted while responding to bug #12326.

* Remove failing collation case from object_address regression test.Tom Lane2014-12-23
| | | | | Per buildfarm, this test case does not yield consistent results. I don't think it's useful enough to figure out a workaround, either.
* Revert "Use a bitmask to represent role attributes"Alvaro Herrera2014-12-23
| | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 1826987a46d079458007b7b6bbcbbd852353adbb. The overall design was deemed unacceptable, in discussion following the previous commit message; we might find some parts of it still salvageable, but I don't want to be on the hook for fixing it, so let's wait until we have a new patch.
* Add SQL-callable pg_get_object_addressAlvaro Herrera2014-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows access to get_object_address from SQL, which is useful to obtain OID addressing information from data equivalent to that emitted by the parser. This is necessary infrastructure of a project to let replication systems propagate object dropping events to remote servers, where the schema might be different than the server originating the DROP. This patch also adds support for OBJECT_DEFAULT to get_object_address; that is, it is now possible to refer to a column's default value. Catalog version bumped due to the new function.

* Use a bitmask to represent role attributesAlvaro Herrera2014-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous representation using a boolean column for each attribute would not scale as well as we want to add further attributes. Extra auxilliary functions are added to go along with this change, to make up for the lost convenience of access of the old representation. Catalog version bumped due to change in catalogs and the new functions. Author: Adam Brightwell, minor tweaks by Álvaro Reviewed by: Stephen Frost, Andres Freund, Álvaro Herrera
* get_object_address: separate domain constraints from table constraintsAlvaro Herrera2014-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Apart from enabling comments on domain constraints, this enables a future project to replicate object dropping to remote servers: with the current mechanism there's no way to distinguish between the two types of constraints, so there's no way to know what to drop. Also added support for the domain constraint comments in psql's \dd and pg_dump. Catalog version bumped due to the change in ObjectType enum.
* Change local_preload_libraries to PGC_USERSETPeter Eisentraut2014-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows it to be used with ALTER ROLE SET. Although the old setting of PGC_BACKEND prevented changes after session start, after discussion it was more useful to allow ALTER ROLE SET instead and just document that changes during a session have no effect. This is similar to how session_preload_libraries works already. An alternative would be to change things to allow PGC_BACKEND and PGC_SU_BACKEND settings to be changed by ALTER ROLE SET. But that might need further research (e.g., log_connections would probably not work). based on patch by Kyotaro Horiguchi

* Fix documentation of argument type of json_agg and jsonb_aggAndrew Dunstan2014-12-22
| | | | | | | json_agg was originally designed to aggregate records. However, it soon became clear that it is useful for aggregating all kinds of values and that's what we have on 9.3 and 9.4, and in head for it and jsonb_agg. The documentation suggested otherwise, so this fixes it.
* Move rbtree.c from src/backend/utils/misc to src/backend/lib.Heikki Linnakangas2014-12-22
| | | | | We have other general-purpose data structures in src/backend/lib, so it seems like a better home for the red-black tree as well.
* Turn much of the btree_gin macros into real functions.Heikki Linnakangas2014-12-22

* Use a pairing heap for the priority queue in kNN-GiST searches.Heikki Linnakangas2014-12-22
| | | | | | | This performs slightly better, uses less memory, and needs slightly less code in GiST, than the Red-Black tree previously used. Reviewed by Peter Geoghegan
* Docs: clarify treatment of variadic functions with zero variadic arguments.Tom Lane2014-12-21
| | | | | | | | | Explain that you have to use "VARIADIC ARRAY[]" to pass an empty array to a variadic parameter position. This was already implicit in the text but it seems better to spell it out. Per a suggestion from David Johnston, though I didn't use his proposed wording. Back-patch to all supported branches.
* Fix file descriptor leak at end of recovery.Heikki Linnakangas2014-12-21
| | | | | | | | XLogFileInit() returns a file descriptor, which needs to be closed. The leak was short-lived, since the startup process exits shortly afterwards, but it was clearly a bug, nevertheless. Per Coverity report.

* pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects: add behavior flagsAlvaro Herrera2014-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add "normal" and "original" flags as output columns to the pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects() function. With this it's possible to distinguish which objects, among those listed, need to be explicitely referenced when trying to replicate a deletion. This is necessary so that the list of objects can be pruned to the minimum necessary to replicate the DROP command in a remote server that might have slightly different schema (for instance, TOAST tables and constraints with different names and such.) Catalog version bumped due to change of function definition. Reviewed by: Abhijit Menon-Sen, Stephen Frost, Heikki Linnakangas, Robert Haas.
* Fix timestamp in end-of-recovery WAL records.Heikki Linnakangas2014-12-19
| | | | | | | We used time(null) to set a TimestampTz field, which gave bogus results. Noticed while looking at pg_xlogdump output. Backpatch to 9.3 and above, where the fast promotion was introduced.
* Prevent potentially hazardous compiler/cpu reordering during lwlock release.Andres Freund2014-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In LWLockRelease() (and in 9.4+ LWLockUpdateVar()) we release enqueued waiters using PGSemaphoreUnlock(). As there are other sources of such unlocks backends only wake up if MyProc->lwWaiting is set to false; which is only done in the aforementioned functions. Before this commit there were dangers because the store to lwWaitLink could become visible before the store to lwWaitLink. This could both happen due to compiler reordering (on most compilers) and on some platforms due to the CPU reordering stores. The possible consequence of this is that a backend stops waiting before lwWaitLink is set to NULL. If that backend then tries to acquire another lock and has to wait there the list could become corrupted once the lwWaitLink store is finally performed. Add a write memory barrier to prevent that issue. Unfortunately the barrier support has been only added in 9.2. Given that the issue has not knowingly been observed in praxis it seems sufficient to prohibit compiler reordering using volatile for 9.0 and 9.1. Actual problems due to compiler reordering are more likely anyway. Discussion: 20140210134625.GA15246@awork2.anarazel.de

* Improve documentation about CASE and constant subexpressions.Tom Lane2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The possibility that constant subexpressions of a CASE might be evaluated at planning time was touched on in 9.17.1 (CASE expressions), but it really ought to be explained in 4.2.14 (Expression Evaluation Rules) which is the primary discussion of such topics. Add text and an example there, and revise the <note> under CASE to link there. Back-patch to all supported branches, since it's acted like this for a long time (though 9.2+ is probably worse because of its more aggressive use of constant-folding via replanning of nominally-prepared statements). Pre-9.4, also back-patch text added in commit 0ce627d4 about CASE versus aggregate functions. Tom Lane and David Johnston, per discussion of bug #12273.

* Improve hash_create's API for selecting simple-binary-key hash functions.Tom Lane2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, if you wanted anything besides C-string hash keys, you had to specify a custom hashing function to hash_create(). Nearly all such callers were specifying tag_hash or oid_hash; which is tedious, and rather error-prone, since a caller could easily miss the opportunity to optimize by using hash_uint32 when appropriate. Replace this with a design whereby callers using simple binary-data keys just specify HASH_BLOBS and don't need to mess with specific support functions. hash_create() itself will take care of optimizing when the key size is four bytes. This nets out saving a few hundred bytes of code space, and offers a measurable performance improvement in tidbitmap.c (which was not exploiting the opportunity to use hash_uint32 for its 4-byte keys). There might be some wins elsewhere too, I didn't analyze closely. In future we could look into offering a similar optimized hashing function for 8-byte keys. Under this design that could be done in a centralized and machine-independent fashion, whereas getting it right for keys of platform-dependent sizes would've been notationally painful before. For the moment, the old way still works fine, so as not to break source code compatibility for loadable modules. Eventually we might want to remove tag_hash and friends from the exported API altogether, since there's no real need for them to be explicitly referenced from outside dynahash.c.

* Change how first WAL segment on new timeline after promotion is created.Heikki Linnakangas2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two changes: 1. When copying a WAL segment from old timeline to create the first segment on the new timeline, only copy up to the point where the timeline switch happens, and zero-fill the rest. This avoids corner cases where we might think that the copied WAL from the previous timeline belong to the new timeline. 2. If the timeline switch happens at a segment boundary, don't copy the whole old segment to the new timeline. It's pointless, because it's 100% identical to the old segment.
* Add memory barriers for PgBackendStatus.st_changecount protocol.Fujii Masao2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | st_changecount protocol needs the memory barriers to ensure that the apparent order of execution is as it desires. Otherwise, for example, the CPU might rearrange the code so that st_changecount is incremented twice before the modification on a machine with weak memory ordering. This surprising result can lead to bugs. This commit introduces the macros to load and store st_changecount with the memory barriers. These are called before and after PgBackendStatus entries are modified or copied into private memory, in order to prevent CPU from reordering PgBackendStatus access. Per discussion on pgsql-hackers, we decided not to back-patch this to 9.4 or before until we get an actual bug report about this. Patch by me. Review by Robert Haas.
* Ensure variables live across calls in generate_series(numeric, numeric).Fujii Masao2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | In generate_series_step_numeric(), the variables "start_num" and "stop_num" may be potentially freed until the next call. So they should be put in the location which can survive across calls. But previously they were not, and which could cause incorrect behavior of generate_series(numeric, numeric). This commit fixes this problem by copying them on multi_call_memory_ctx. Andrew Gierth

* Fix (re-)starting from a basebackup taken off a standby after a failure.Andres Freund2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When starting up from a basebackup taken off a standby extra logic has to be applied to compute the point where the data directory is consistent. Normal base backups use a WAL record for that purpose, but that isn't possible on a standby. That logic had a error check ensuring that the cluster's control file indicates being in recovery. Unfortunately that check was too strict, disregarding the fact that the control file could also indicate that the cluster was shut down while in recovery. That's possible when the a cluster starting from a basebackup is shut down before the backup label has been removed. When everything goes well that's a short window, but when either restore_command or primary_conninfo isn't configured correctly the window can get much wider. That's because inbetween reading and unlinking the label we restore the last checkpoint from WAL which can need additional WAL. To fix simply also allow starting when the control file indicates "shutdown in recovery". There's nicer fixes imaginable, but they'd be more invasive. Backpatch to 9.2 where support for taking basebackups from standbys was added.
* Fix previous commit for TAP test suites in VPATH builds.Noah Misch2014-12-18

* Lock down regression testing temporary clusters on Windows.Noah Misch2014-12-17

This closes on Windows the vulnerability that commit be76a6d39e2832d4b88c0e1cc381aa44a7f86881 closed on other platforms. Users of "make installcheck" or custom test harnesses can run "pg_regress --config-auth=DATADIR" to activate the same authentication configuration that "make check" would use. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions). Security: CVE-2014-0067
* Allow CHECK constraints to be placed on foreign tables.Tom Lane2014-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As with NOT NULL constraints, we consider that such constraints are merely reports of constraints that are being enforced by the remote server (or other underlying storage mechanism). Their only real use is to allow planner optimizations, for example in constraint-exclusion checks. Thus, the code changes here amount to little more than removal of the error that was formerly thrown for applying CHECK to a foreign table. (In passing, do a bit of cleanup of the ALTER FOREIGN TABLE reference page, which had accumulated some weird decisions about ordering etc.) Shigeru Hanada and Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Kyotaro Horiguchi and Ashutosh Bapat.

* Fix off-by-one loop count in MapArrayTypeName, and get rid of static array.Tom Lane2014-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MapArrayTypeName would copy up to NAMEDATALEN-1 bytes of the base type name, which of course is wrong: after prepending '_' there is only room for NAMEDATALEN-2 bytes. Aside from being the wrong result, this case would lead to overrunning the statically allocated work buffer. This would be a security bug if the function were ever used outside bootstrap mode, but it isn't, at least not in any currently supported branches. Aside from fixing the off-by-one loop logic, this patch gets rid of the static work buffer by having MapArrayTypeName pstrdup its result; the sole caller was already doing that, so this just requires moving the pstrdup call. This saves a few bytes but mainly it makes the API a lot cleaner. Back-patch on the off chance that there is some third-party code using MapArrayTypeName with less-secure input. Pushing pstrdup into the function should not cause any serious problems for such hypothetical code; at worst there might be a short term memory leak. Per Coverity scanning.

* Fix file descriptor leak after failure of a \setshell command in pgbench.Tom Lane2014-12-16
| | | | | | | | | If the called command fails to return data, runShellCommand forgot to pclose() the pipe before returning. This is fairly harmless in the current code, because pgbench would then abandon further processing of that client thread; so no more than nclients descriptors could be leaked this way. But it's not hard to imagine future improvements whereby that wouldn't be true. In any case, it's sloppy coding, so patch all branches. Found by Coverity.
* Fix some jsonb issues found by Coverity in recent commits.Andrew Dunstan2014-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | Mostly these issues concern the non-use of function results. These have been changed to use (void) pushJsonbValue(...) instead of assigning the result to a variable that gets overwritten before it is used. There is a larger issue that we should possibly examine the API for pushJsonbValue(), so that instead of returning a value it modifies a state argument. The current idiom is rather clumsy. However, changing that requires quite a bit more work, so this change should do for the moment.
