For correctness of summarization results, it is critical that the
snapshot used during the summarization scan is able to see all tuples
that are live to all transactions -- including tuples inserted or
deleted by in-progress transactions. Otherwise, it would be possible
for a transaction to insert a tuple, then idle for a long time while a
concurrent transaction executes summarization of the range: this would
result in the inserted value not being considered in the summary.
Previously we were trying to use a MVCC snapshot in conjunction with
adding a "placeholder" tuple in the index: the snapshot would see all
committed tuples, and the placeholder tuple would catch insertions by
any new inserters. The hole is that prior insertions by transactions
that are still in progress by the time the MVCC snapshot was taken were
ignored.
Kevin Grittner reported this as a bogus error message during vacuum with
default transaction isolation mode set to repeatable read (because the
error report mentioned a function name not being invoked during), but
the problem is larger than that.
To fix, tweak IndexBuildHeapRangeScan to have a new mode that behaves
the way we need using SnapshotAny visibility rules. This change
simplifies the BRIN code a bit, mainly by removing large comments that
were mistaken. Instead, rely on the SnapshotAny semantics to provide
what it needs. (The business about a placeholder tuple needs to remain:
that covers the case that a transaction inserts a a tuple in a page that
summarization already scanned.)

In passing, remove a couple of unused declarations from brin.h and

If tablespace_map file is present without backup_label file, there is
no use of such file. There is no harm in retaining it, but it is better
to get rid of the map file so that we don't have any redundant file
in data directory and it will avoid any sort of confusion. It seems
prudent though to just rename the file out of the way rather than
delete it completely, also we ignore any error that occurs in rename
operation as even if map file is present without backup_label file,
it is harmless.
Back-patch to 9.5 where tablespace_map file was introduced.

It's against project policy to use elog() for user-facing errors, or to
omit an errcode() selection for errors that aren't supposed to be "can't
happen" cases. Fix all the violations of this policy that result in
ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR log entries during the standard regression tests,
as errors that can reliably be triggered from SQL surely should be
considered user-facing.
I also looked through all the files touched by this commit and fixed
other nearby problems of the same ilk. I do not claim to have fixed
all violations of the policy, just the ones in these files.
In a few places I also changed existing ERRCODE choices that didn't
seem particularly appropriate; mainly replacing ERRCODE_SYNTAX_ERROR
by something more specific.
Back-patch to 9.5, but no further; changing ERRCODE assignments in
stable branches doesn't seem like a good idea.

If a call to WaitForXLogInsertionsToFinish() returned a value in the middle
of a page, and another backend then started to insert a record to the same
page, and then you called WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() again, the second
call might return a smaller value than the first call. The problem was in
GetXLogBuffer(), which always updated the insertingAt value to the
beginning of the requested page, not the actual requested location. Because
of that, the second call might return a xlog pointer to the beginning of
the page, while the first one returned a later position on the same page.
XLogFlush() performs two calls to WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() in
succession, and holds WALWriteLock on the second call, which can deadlock
if the second call to WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() blocks.
Reported by Spiros Ioannou. Backpatch to 9.4, where the more scalable
WALInsertLock mechanism, and this bug, was introduced.

The lwlock scalability work introduced two race conditions into the
lwlock variable support provided for xlog.c. First, and harmlessly on
most platforms, it set/read the variable without the spinlock in some
places. Secondly, due to the removal of the spinlock, it was possible
that a backend missed changes to the variable's state if it changed in
the wrong moment because checking the lock's state, the variable's state
and the queuing are not protected by a single spinlock acquisition
anymore.
To fix first move resetting the variable's from LWLockAcquireWithVar to
WALInsertLockRelease, via a new function LWLockReleaseClearVar. That
prevents issues around waiting for a variable's value to change when a
new locker has acquired the lock, but not yet set the value. Secondly
re-check that the variable hasn't changed after enqueing, that prevents
the issue that the lock has been released and already re-acquired by the
time the woken up backend checks for the lock's state.

The code was assuming that any NULL value in scan keys was due to IS
NULL or IS NOT NULL, but it turns out to be possible to get them with
other operators too, if they are used in contrived-enough ways. Easiest
way out of the problem seems to check explicitely for the IS NOT NULL
flag, instead of assuming it must be set if the IS NULL flag is not set,
when a null scan key is found; if neither flag is set, follow the lead
of other index AMs and assume that all indexable operators must be
strict, and thus the query is never satisfiable.
Also, add a comment to try and lure some future hacker into improving
analysis of scan keys in brin.

The pg_stats view is supposed to be restricted to only show rows
about tables the user can read. However, it sometimes can leak
information which could not otherwise be seen when row level security
is enabled. Fix that by not showing pg_stats rows to users that would
be subject to RLS on the table the row is related to. This is done
by creating/using the newly introduced SQL visible function,
row_security_active().
Along the way, clean up three call sites of check_enable_rls(). The second
argument of that function should only be specified as other than
InvalidOid when we are checking as a different user than the current one,
as in when querying through a view. These sites were passing GetUserId()
instead of InvalidOid, which can cause the function to return incorrect
results if the current user has the BYPASSRLS privilege and row_security
has been set to OFF.
Additionally fix a bug causing RI Trigger error messages to unintentionally
leak information when RLS is enabled, and other minor cleanup and
improvements. Also add WITH (security_barrier) to the definition of pg_stats.
Bumped CATVERSION due to new SQL functions and pg_stats view definition.

In GIN, an all-zeros page would be leaked forever, and never reused. Just
add them to the FSM in vacuum, and they will be reinitialized when grabbed
from the FSM. On master and 9.5, attempting to access the page's opaque

harmless.

SP-GiST initialized an all-zeros page at vacuum, but that was not
WAL-logged, which is not safe. You might get a torn page write, when it gets
flushed to disk, and end-up with a half-initialized index page. To fix,
leave it in the all-zeros state, and add it to the FSM. It will be
initialized when reused. Also don't set the page-deleted flag when recycling
an empty page. That was also not WAL-logged, and a torn write of that would
cause the page to have an invalid checksum.

Some of the older OS X critters in the buildfarm are failing regression,
with symptoms showing that a request for 100% sampling in BERNOULLI or
SYSTEM methods actually gets only around 50% of the table. gdb revealed
that the computation of the "cutoff" number was producing 0x7FFFFFFF
rather than the expected 0x100000000. Inspecting the assembly code,
it looks like gcc is trying to use lrint() instead of rint() and then
fumbling the conversion from long double to uint64. This seems like a
clear compiler bug, but assigning the intermediate result into a plain
double variable works around it, so let's just do that. (Another idea
would be to give up one bit of hash width so that we don't need to use
a uint64 cutoff, but let's see if this is enough.)

The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method
API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without
specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can
implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable
thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will
pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural
language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level
support object needed is a single handler function identified by having
a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog
altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature.
Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments
(the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at
ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright
unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples.
Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable
within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more
honestly with methods that can't support that requirement.
Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix
assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as
failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering).
Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too.
Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API
in production.

If there were no subtransactions (or multixacts) active, we would calculate
the oldestxid == next xid. That's correct, but if next XID happens to be
on the next pg_subtrans (pg_multixact) page, the page does not exist yet,
and SimpleLruTruncate will produce an "apparent wraparound" warning. The
warning is harmless in this case, but looks very alarming to users.

Remove HeapScanDescData.rs_initblock, which wasn't being used for anything
in the final version of the patch.
Fix IndexBuildHeapScan so that it supports syncscan again; the patch
broke synchronous scanning for index builds by forcing rs_startblk
to zero even when the caller did not care about that and had asked
for syncscan.
Add some commentary and usage defenses to heap_setscanlimits().
Fix heapam so that asking for rs_numblocks == 0 does what you would
reasonably expect. As coded it amounted to requesting a whole-table
scan, because those "--x <= 0" tests on an unsigned variable would
behave surprisingly.

There was already a sanity-check in the other direction: if a page was
marked with WILL_INIT, it had to be initialized by the redo routine. It's
not strictly necessary for correctness that a page is marked with WILL_INIT
if it's going to be initialized at redo, but it's a missed optimization if
nothing else.
Fix a few instances of this issue in SP-GiST, where a block in WAL record
was not marked with WILL_INIT, but was in fact always initialized at redo.
We were creating a full-page image of the page unnecessarily in those
cases.

XLogFileCopy() was changed heavily in commit de76884. However it was
partially reverted in commit 7abc685 and most of those changes to
XLogFileCopy() were no longer needed. Then commit 7cbee7c removed
those unnecessary code, but XLogFileCopy() looked different in master
and 9.4 though the contents are almost the same.
This patch makes XLogFileCopy() look the same in master and back-branches,
which makes back-patching easier, per discussion on pgsql-hackers.

After calling XLogInitBufferForRedo(), the page might be all-zeros if it was
not in page cache already. btree_xlog_unlink_page initialized the page
correctly, but it called PageGetSpecialPointer before initializing it, which
would lead to a corrupt page at WAL replay, if the unlinked page is not in
page cache.

I broke this with my WAL format refactoring patch. Before that, the metapage
was read from disk, and modified in-place regardless of the LSN. That was
always a bit silly, as there's no need to read the old page version from
disk disk when we're overwriting it anyway. So that was changed in 9.5, but
I failed to add a GinInitPage call to initialize the page-headers correctly.
Usually you wouldn't notice, because the metapage is already in the page
cache and is not zeroed.
One way to reproduce this is to perform a VACUUM on an already vacuumed
table (so that the vacuum has no real work to do), immediately after a
checkpoint, and then perform an immediate shutdown. After recovery, the
page headers of the metapage will be incorrectly all-zeroes.

When archive recovery and restartpoints were initially introduced,
checkpoint_segments was ignored on the grounds that the files restored from
archive don't consume any space in the recovery server. That was changed in
later releases, but even then it was arguably a feature rather than a bug,
as performing restartpoints as often as checkpoints during normal operation
might be excessive, but you might nevertheless not want to waste a lot of
space for pre-allocated WAL by setting checkpoint_segments to a high value.
But now that we have separate min_wal_size and max_wal_size settings, you
can bound WAL usage with max_wal_size, and still avoid consuming excessive
space usage by setting min_wal_size to a lower value, so that argument is
moot.
There are still some issues with actually limiting the space usage to
max_wal_size: restartpoints in recovery can only start after seeing the
checkpoint record, while a checkpoint starts flushing buffers as soon as
the redo-pointer is set. Restartpoint is paced to happen at the same
leisurily speed, determined by checkpoint_completion_target, as checkpoints,
but because they are started later, max_wal_size can be exceeded by upto
one checkpoint cycle's worth of WAL, depending on
checkpoint_completion_target. But that seems better than not trying at all,
and max_wal_size is a soft limit anyway.
The documentation already claimed that max_wal_size is obeyed in recovery,
so this just fixes the behaviour to match the docs. However, add some
weasel-words there to mention that max_wal_size may well be exceeded by
some amount in recovery.

Seems like cheap insurance for WAL bugs. A spurious call to
XLogBeginInsert() in itself would be fairly harmless, but if there is any
data registered and the insertion is not completed/cancelled properly, there
is a risk that the data ends up in a wrong WAL record.

If data checksums or wal_log_hints is on, and a GIN page is split, the code
to find a new, empty, block was called after having already called
XLogBeginInsert(). That causes an assertion failure or PANIC, if finding the
new block involves updating a FSM page that had not been modified since last
checkpoint, because that update is WAL-logged, which calls XLogBeginInsert
again. Nested XLogBeginInsert calls are not supported.
To fix, rearrange GIN code so that XLogBeginInsert is called later, after
finding the victim buffers.

1. Replay of the WAL record for setting a bit in the visibility map
contained an assertion that a full-page image of that record type can only
occur with checksums enabled. But it can also happen with wal_log_hints, so
remove the assertion. Unlike checksums, wal_log_hints can be changed on the
fly, so it would be complicated to figure out if it was enabled at the time
that the WAL record was generated.
2. wal_log_hints has the same effect on the locking needed to read the LSN
of a page as data checksums. BufferGetLSNAtomic() didn't get the memo.
Backpatch to 9.4, where wal_log_hints was added.

Previously autovacuum was not necessarily triggered if space in the
members slru got tight. The first problem was that the signalling was
tied to values in the offsets slru, but members can advance much
faster. Thats especially a problem if old sessions had been around that
previously prevented the multixact horizon to increase. Secondly the
skipping logic doesn't work if the database was restarted after
autovacuum was triggered - that knowledge is not preserved across
restart. This is especially a problem because it's a common
panic-reaction to restart the database if it gets slow to
anti-wraparound vacuums.
Fix the first problem by separating the logic for members from
offsets. Trigger autovacuum whenever a multixact crosses a segment
boundary, as the current member offset increases in irregular values, so
we can't use a simple modulo logic as for offsets. Add a stopgap for
the second problem, by signalling autovacuum whenver ERRORing out
because of boundaries.

Since find_multixact_start() relies on SimpleLruDoesPhysicalPageExist(),
and that function looks only at the on-disk state, it's possible for it
to fail to find a page that exists in the in-memory SLRU that has not
been written yet. If that happens, SetOffsetVacuumLimit() will
erroneously decide to force emergency autovacuuming immediately.
We should probably fix find_multixact_start() to consider the data
cached in memory as well as on the on-disk state, but that's no excuse
for SetOffsetVacuumLimit() to be stupid about the case where it can
no longer read the value after having previously succeeded in doing so.

* Remove unused argument "dstfname" and related code from XLogFileCopy().
* Previously XLogFileCopy() returned a pstrdup'd string so that
InstallXLogFileSegment() used it later. Since the pstrdup'd string was never
free'd, there could be a risk of memory leak. It was almost harmless because
the startup process exited just after calling XLogFileCopy(), it existed.
This commit changes XLogFileCopy() so that it directly calls
InstallXLogFileSegment() and doesn't call pstrdup() at all. Which fixes that
memory leak problem.
* Extend InstallXLogFileSegment() so that the caller can specify the log level.
Which allows us to emit an error when InstallXLogFileSegment() fails a disk
file access like link() and rename(). Previously it was always logged with
LOG level and additionally needed to be logged with ERROR when we wanted
to treat it as an error.

Recent commits, mainly b69bf30b9bfacafc733a9ba77c9587cf54d06c0c and
53bb309d2d5a9432d2602c93ed18e58bd2924e15, introduced mechanisms to
protect against wraparound of the MultiXact member space: the number
of multixacts that can exist at one time is limited to 2^32, but the
total number of members in those multixacts is also limited to 2^32,
and older code did not take care to enforce the second limit,
potentially allowing old data to be overwritten while it was still
needed.
Unfortunately, these new mechanisms failed to account for the fact
that the code paths in which they run might be executed during
recovery or while the cluster was in an inconsistent state. Also,
they failed to account for the fact that users who used pg_upgrade
to upgrade a PostgreSQL version between 9.3.0 and 9.3.4 might have
might oldestMultiXid = 1 in the control file despite the true value
being larger.
To fix these problems, first, avoid unnecessarily examining the
mmembers of MultiXacts when the cluster is not known to be consistent.
TruncateMultiXact has done this for a long time, and this patch does
not fix that. But the new calls used to prevent member wraparound
are not needed until we reach normal running, so avoid calling them
earlier. (SetMultiXactIdLimit is actually called before InRecovery
is set, so we can't rely on that; we invent our own multixact-specific
flag instead.)
Second, make failure to look up the members of a MultiXact a non-fatal
error. Instead, if we're unable to determine the member offset at
which wraparound would occur, postpone arming the member wraparound
defenses until we are able to do so. If we're unable to determine the
member offset that should force autovacuum, force it continuously
until we are able to do so. If we're unable to deterine the member
offset at which we should truncate the members SLRU, log a message and
skip truncation.
An important consequence of these changes is that anyone who does have
a bogus oldestMultiXid = 1 value in pg_control will experience
immediate emergency autovacuuming when upgrading to a release that
contains this fix. The release notes should highlight this fact. If
a user has no pg_multixact/offsets/0000 file, but has oldestMultiXid = 1
in the control file, they may wish to vacuum any tables with
relminmxid = 1 prior to upgrading in order to avoid an immediate
emergency autovacuum after the upgrade. This must be done with a
PostgreSQL version 9.3.5 or newer and with vacuum_multixact_freeze_min_age
and vacuum_multixact_freeze_table_age set to 0.
This patch also adds an additional log message at each database server
startup, indicating either that protections against member wraparound
have been engaged, or that they have not. In the latter case, once
autovacuum has advanced oldestMultiXid to a sane value, the message
indicating that the guards have been engaged will appear at the next
checkpoint. A few additional messages have also been added at the DEBUG1
level so that the correct operation of this code can be properly audited.
Along the way, this patch fixes another, related bug in TruncateMultiXact
that has existed since PostgreSQL 9.3.0: when no MultiXacts exist at
all, the truncation code looks up NextMultiXactId, which doesn't exist
yet. This can lead to TruncateMultiXact removing every file in
pg_multixact/offsets instead of keeping one around, as it should.
This in turn will cause the database server to refuse to start
afterwards.
Patch by me. Review by Álvaro Herrera, Andres Freund, Noah Misch, and
Thomas Munro.

Commit 2ce439f3379aed857517c8ce207485655000fc8e introduced a rather serious
regression, namely that if its scan of the data directory came across any
un-fsync-able files, it would fail and thereby prevent database startup.
Worse yet, symlinks to such files also caused the problem, which meant that
crash restart was guaranteed to fail on certain common installations such
as older Debian.
After discussion, we agreed that (1) failure to start is worse than any
consequence of not fsync'ing is likely to be, therefore treat all errors
in this code as nonfatal; (2) we should not chase symlinks other than
those that are expected to exist, namely pg_xlog/ and tablespace links
under pg_tblspc/. The latter restriction avoids possibly fsync'ing a
much larger part of the filesystem than intended, if the user has left
random symlinks hanging about in the data directory.
This commit takes care of that and also does some code beautification,
mainly moving the relevant code into fd.c, which seems a much better place
for it than xlog.c, and making sure that the conditional compilation for
the pre_sync_fname pass has something to do with whether pg_flush_data
works.
I also relocated the call site in xlog.c down a few lines; it seems a
bit silly to be doing this before ValidateXLOGDirectoryStructure().
The similar logic in initdb.c ought to be made to match this, but that
change is noncritical and will be dealt with separately.
Back-patch to all active branches, like the prior commit.

brin_form_tuple calculated an exact tuple size, then palloc'd and
filled just that much. Later, brin_doinsert or brin_doupdate would
MAXALIGN the tuple size and tell PageAddItem that that was the size
of the tuple to insert. If the original tuple size wasn't a multiple
of MAXALIGN, the net result would be that PageAddItem would memcpy
a few more bytes than the palloc request had been for.
AFAICS, this is totally harmless in the real world: the error is a
read overrun not a write overrun, and palloc would certainly have
rounded the request up to a MAXALIGN multiple internally, so there's
no chance of the memcpy fetching off the end of memory. Valgrind,
however, is picky to the byte level not the MAXALIGN level.
Fix it by pushing the MAXALIGN step back to brin_form_tuple. (The other
possible source of tuples in this code, brin_form_placeholder_tuple,
was already producing a MAXALIGN'd result.)
In passing, be a bit more paranoid about internal allocations in
brin_form_tuple.

Multixact truncation is now handled differently, and this file hadn't
gotten the memo.
Per note from Amit Langote. I didn't use his patch, though.
Also update the description of infomask bits, which weren't completely up
to date either. This commit also propagates b01a4f6838 back to 9.3 and
9.4, which apparently I failed to do back then.

Fix some places where pgindent did silly stuff, often because project
style wasn't followed to begin with. (I've not touched the atomics
headers, though.)

Typo in commit 7cbee7c0a. No practical effect since the buffer should
never actually be overrun, but various compilers and static analyzers will
whine about it.

With commit de768844, a copy of the partial segment was archived with the
.partial suffix, but the original file was still left in pg_xlog, so it
didn't actually solve the problems with archiving the partial segment that
it was supposed to solve. With this patch, the partial segment is renamed
rather than copied, so we only archive it with the .partial suffix.
Also be more robust in detecting if the last segment is already being
archived. Previously I used XLogArchiveIsBusy() for that, but that's not
quite right. With archive_mode='always', there might be a .ready file for
it, and we don't want to rename it to .partial in that case.
The old segment is needed until we're fully committed to the new timeline,
i.e. until we've written the end-of-recovery WAL record and updated the
min recovery point and timeline in the control file. So move the renaming
later in the startup sequence, after all that's been done.

Previously even if recovery_target_action was set to pause and
the recovery target was reached, the recovery could never be paused.
Because the setting of pause was *always* overridden with that of
shutdown unexpectedly. This override is valid and intentional
if hot_standby is not enabled because there is no way to resume
the paused recovery in this case and the setting of pause is
completely useless. But not if hot_standby is enabled.
This patch changes the code so that the setting of pause is overridden
with that of shutdown only when hot_standby is not enabled.

Use "a" and "an" correctly, mostly in comments. Two error messages were
also fixed (they were just elogs, so no translation work required). Two
function comments in pg_proc.h were also fixed. Etsuro Fujita reported one
of these, but I found a lot more with grep.
Also fix a few other typos spotted while grepping for the a/an typos.
For example, "consists out of ..." -> "consists of ...". Plus a "though"/
"through" mixup reported by Euler Taveira.
Many of these typos were in old code, which would be nice to backpatch to
make future backpatching easier. But much of the code was new, and I didn't
feel like crafting separate patches for each branch. So no backpatching.
