* Add some checkpoint/restartpoint status to ps displayMichael Paquier2020-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is done for end-of-recovery and shutdown checkpoints/restartpoints (end-of-recovery restartpoints don't exist) rather than all types of checkpoints, in cases where it may not be possible to rely on pg_stat_activity to get a status from the startup or checkpointer processes. For example, at the end of a crash recovery, this is useful to know if a checkpoint is running in the startup process, while previously the ps display may only show some information about "recovering" something, that can be confusing while a checkpoint runs.

* Avoid using tuple from syscache for update of pg_database.datfrozenxidMichael Paquier2020-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_database.datfrozenxid gets updated using an in-place update at the end of vacuum or autovacuum. Since 96cdeae, as pg_database has a toast relation, it is possible for a pg_database tuple to have toast values if there is a large set of ACLs in place. In such a case, the in-place update would fail because of the flattening of the toast values done for the catcache entry fetched. Instead of using a copy from the catcache, this changes the logic to fetch the copy of the tuple by directly scanning pg_database. Per the lack of complaints on the matter, no backpatch is done. Note that before 96cdeae, attempting to insert such a tuple to pg_database would cause a "row is too big" error, so the end-of-vacuum problem was not reachable.

* Fix CLUSTER progress reporting of number of blocks scanned.Fujii Masao2020-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously pg_stat_progress_cluster view reported the current block number in heap scan as the number of heap blocks scanned (i.e., heap_blks_scanned). This reported number could be incorrect when synchronize_seqscans is enabled, because it allowed the heap scan to start at block in middle. This could result in wraparounds in the heap_blks_scanned column when the heap scan wrapped around. This commit fixes the bug by calculating the number of blocks from the block that the heap scan starts at to the current block in scan, and reporting that number in the heap_blks_scanned column. Also, in pg_stat_progress_cluster view, previously heap_blks_scanned could not reach heap_blks_total at the end of heap scan phase if the last pages scanned were empty. This commit fixes the bug by manually updating heap_blks_scanned to the same value as heap_blks_total when the heap scan phase finishes. Back-patch to v12 where pg_stat_progress_cluster view was introduced.

* Centralize logic for skipping useless ereport/elog calls.Tom Lane2020-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While ereport() and elog() themselves are quite cheap when the error message level is too low to be printed, some places need to do substantial work before they can call those macros at all. To allow optimizing away such setup work when nothing is to be printed, make elog.c export a new function message_level_is_interesting(elevel) that reports whether ereport/elog will do anything. Make use of that in various places that had ad-hoc direct tests of log_min_messages etc. Also teach ProcSleep to use it to avoid some work. (There may well be other places that could usefully use this; I didn't search hard.) Within elog.c, refactor a little bit to avoid having duplicate copies of the policy-setting logic. When that code was written, we weren't relying on the availability of inline functions; so it had some duplications in the name of efficiency, which I got rid of.

* Rename the "point is strictly above/below point" comparison operators.Tom Lane2020-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically these were called >^ and <^, but that is inconsistent with the similar box, polygon, and circle operators, which are named |>> and <<| respectively. Worse, the >^ and <^ names are used for *not* strict above/below tests for the box type. Hence, invent new operators following the more common naming. The old operators remain available for now, and are still accepted by the relevant index opclasses too. But there's a deprecation notice, so maybe we can get rid of them someday.

* Deprecate nbtree's BTP_HAS_GARBAGE flag.Peter Geoghegan2020-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Streamline handling of the various strategies that we have to avoid a page split in nbtinsert.c. When it looks like a leaf page is about to overflow, we now perform deleting LP_DEAD items and deduplication in one central place. This greatly simplifies _bt_findinsertloc(). This has an independently useful consequence: nbtree no longer relies on the BTP_HAS_GARBAGE page level flag/hint for anything important. We still set and unset the flag in the same way as before, but it's no longer treated as a gating condition when considering if we should check for already-set LP_DEAD bits. This happens at the point where the page looks like it might have to be split anyway, so simply checking the LP_DEAD bits in passing is practically free. This avoids missing LP_DEAD bits just because the page-level hint is unset, which is probably reasonably common (e.g. it happens when VACUUM unsets the page-level flag without actually removing index tuples whose LP_DEAD-bit was set recently, after the VACUUM operation began but before it reached the leaf page in question). Note that this isn't a big behavioral change compared to PostgreSQL 13. We were already checking for set LP_DEAD bits regardless of whether the BTP_HAS_GARBAGE page level flag was set before we considered doing a deduplication pass. This commit only goes slightly further by doing the same check for all indexes, even indexes where deduplication won't be performed. We don't completely remove the BTP_HAS_GARBAGE flag. We still rely on it as a gating condition with pg_upgrade'd indexes from before B-tree version 4/PostgreSQL 12. That makes sense because we sometimes have to make a choice among pages full of duplicates when inserting a tuple with pre version 4 indexes. It probably still pays to avoid accessing the line pointer array of a page there, since it won't yet be clear whether we'll insert on to the page in question at all, let alone split it as a result.

* nbtree: Rename nbtinsert.c variables for consistency.Peter Geoghegan2020-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stop naming special area/opaque pointer variables 'lpageop' in contexts where it doesn't make sense. This is a holdover from a time when logic that performs tasks that are now spread across _bt_insertonpg(), _bt_findinsertloc(), and _bt_split() was more centralized. 'lpageop' denotes "left page", which doesn't make sense outside of contexts in which there isn't also a right page. Also acquire page flag variables up front within _bt_insertonpg(). This makes it closer to _bt_split() following refactoring commit bc3087b626d. This allows the page split and retail insert paths to both make use of the same variables.

* Fix and simplify some usages of TimestampDifference().Tom Lane2020-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() to simplify callers that would rather have the difference in milliseconds, instead of the select()-oriented seconds-and-microseconds format. This gets rid of at least one integer division per call, and it eliminates some apparently-easy-to-mess-up arithmetic. Two of these call sites were in fact wrong: * pg_prewarm's autoprewarm_main() forgot to multiply the seconds by 1000, thus ending up with a delay 1000X shorter than intended. That doesn't quite make it a busy-wait, but close. * postgres_fdw's pgfdw_get_cleanup_result() thought it needed to compute microseconds not milliseconds, thus ending up with a delay 1000X longer than intended. Somebody along the way had noticed this problem but misdiagnosed the cause, and imposed an ad-hoc 60-second limit rather than fixing the units. This was relatively harmless in context, because we don't care that much about exactly how long this delay is; still, it's wrong. There are a few more callers of TimestampDifference() that don't have a direct need for seconds-and-microseconds, but can't use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() either because they do need microsecond precision or because they might possibly deal with intervals long enough to overflow 32-bit milliseconds. It might be worth inventing another API to improve that, but that seems outside the scope of this patch; so those callers are untouched here. Given the fact that we are fixing some bugs, and the likelihood that future patches might want to back-patch code that uses this new API, back-patch to all supported branches.

* Remove ineffective heapam CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS().Peter Geoghegan2020-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | Remove a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() call that could never actually handle an interrupt. We always have a heap page buffer lock at this point. Having a useless CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() call is harmless but misleading. It is probably possible to work around the immediate problem by moving the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to before the heap page buffer lock is acquired. That isn't enough to make the function responsive to interrupts, though. The index AM caller will still hold an exclusive buffer lock of its own.
* In security-restricted operations, block enqueue of at-commit user code.Noah Misch2020-11-09

An attacker having permission to create non-temp objects in at least one schema could execute arbitrary SQL functions under the identity of the bootstrap superuser. One can work around the vulnerability by disabling autovacuum and not manually running ANALYZE, CLUSTER, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, VACUUM FULL, or REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW.

* Properly detoast data in brin_form_tupleTomas Vondra2020-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | brin_form_tuple failed to consider the values may be toasted, inserting the toast pointer into the index. This may easily result in index corruption, as the toast data may be deleted and cleaned up by vacuum. The cleanup however does not care about indexes, leaving invalid toast pointers behind, which triggers errors like this: ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 16433 in pg_toast_16426 A less severe consequence are inconsistent failures due to the index row being too large, depending on whether brin_form_tuple operated on plain or toasted version of the row. For example CREATE TABLE t (val TEXT); INSERT INTO t VALUES ('... long value ...') CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING brin (val); would likely succeed, as the row would likely include toast pointer. Switching the order of INSERT and CREATE INDEX would likely fail: ERROR: index row size 8712 exceeds maximum 8152 for index "idx" because this happens before the row values are toasted.

* Centralize horizon determination for temp tables, fixing bug due to skew.Andres Freund2020-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a bug in the edge case where, for a temp table, heap_page_prune() can end up with a different horizon than heap_vacuum_rel(). Which can trigger errors like "ERROR: cannot freeze committed xmax ...". The bug was introduced due to interaction of a7212be8b9e "Set cutoff xmin more aggressively when vacuuming a temporary table." with dc7420c2c92 "snapshot scalability: Don't compute global horizons while building snapshots.". The problem is caused by lazy_scan_heap() assuming that the only reason its HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() call would return HEAPTUPLE_DEAD is if the tuple is a HOT tuple, or if the tuple's inserting transaction has aborted since the heap_page_prune() call. But after a7212be8b9e that was also possible in other cases for temp tables, because heap_page_prune() uses a different visibility test after dc7420c2c92. The fix is fairly simple: Move the special case logic for temp tables from vacuum_set_xid_limits() to the infrastructure introduced in dc7420c2c92. That ensures that the horizon used for pruning is at least as aggressive as the one used by lazy_scan_heap(). The concrete horizon used for temp tables is slightly different than the logic in dc7420c2c92, but should always be as aggressive as before (see comments). A significant benefit to centralizing the logic procarray.c is that now the more aggressive horizons for temp tables does not just apply to VACUUM but also to e.g. HOT pruning and the nbtree killtuples logic. Because isTopLevel is not needed by vacuum_set_xid_limits() anymore, I undid the the related changes from a7212be8b9e. This commit also adds an isolation test ensuring that the more aggressive vacuuming and pruning of temp tables keeps working.

While there's no functionality change there, it's just more efficient to use appendStringInfoString() when no formatting is required. Likewise for some appendStringInfoString() calls which were just appending a single char. We can just use appendStringInfoChar() for that. Additionally, many places were using appendPQExpBuffer() when they could have used appendPQExpBufferStr(). Change those too. Patch by Zhijie Hou, but further searching by me found significantly more places that deserved the same treatment.

* Fix GiST buffering build to work when there are included columns.Tom Lane2020-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | gistRelocateBuildBuffersOnSplit did not get the memo about which attribute count to use. This could lead to a crash if there were included columns and buffering build was chosen. (Because there are random page-split decisions elsewhere in GiST index build, the crashes are not entirely deterministic.) Back-patch to v12 where GiST gained support for included columns.

* Re-allow testing of GiST buffered builds.Tom Lane2020-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 16fa9b2b3 broke the ability to reliably test GiST buffered builds, because it caused sorted builds to be done instead if sortsupport is available, regardless of any attempt to override that. While a would-be test case could try to work around that by choosing an opclass that has no sortsupport function, coverage would be silently lost the moment someone decides it'd be a good idea to add a sortsupport function. Hence, rearrange the logic in gistbuild() so that if "buffering = on" is specified in CREATE INDEX, we will use that method, sortsupport or no. Also document the interaction between sorting and the buffering parameter, as 16fa9b2b3 failed to do. (Note that in fact we still lack any test coverage of buffered builds, but this is a prerequisite to adding a non-fragile test.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3249980.1602532990@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Add pg_stat_wal statistics view.Fujii Masao2020-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This view shows the statistics about WAL activity. Currently it has only two columns: wal_buffers_full and stats_reset. wal_buffers_full column indicates the number of times WAL data was written to the disk because WAL buffers got full. This information is useful when tuning wal_buffers. stats_reset column indicates the time at which these statistics were last reset. pg_stat_wal view is also the basic infrastructure to expose other various statistics about WAL activity later. Bump PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID due to the change in pgstat format. Bump catalog version.

* Add block information in error context of WAL REDO apply loopMichael Paquier2020-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Providing this information can be useful for example when diagnosing problems related to recovery conflicts or for recovery issues without having to go through the output generated by pg_waldump to get some information about the blocks a WAL record works on. The block information is printed in the same format as pg_waldump. This already existed in xlog.c for debugging purposes with -DWAL_DEBUG, so adding the block information in the callback has required just a small refactoring.

* Set right-links during sorted GiST index build.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | This is not strictly necessary, as the right-links are only needed by scans that are concurrent with page splits, and neither scans or page splits can happen during sorted index build. But it seems like a good idea to set them anyway, if we e.g. want to add a check to amcheck in the future to verify that the chain of right-links is complete.

* Defer flushing of SLRU files.Thomas Munro2020-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we called fsync() after writing out individual pg_xact, pg_multixact and pg_commit_ts pages due to cache pressure, leading to regular I/O stalls in user backends and recovery. Collapse requests for the same file into a single system call as part of the next checkpoint, as we already did for relation files, using the infrastructure developed by commit 3eb77eba. This can cause a significant improvement to recovery performance, especially when it's otherwise CPU-bound. Hoist ProcessSyncRequests() up into CheckPointGuts() to make it clearer that it applies to all the SLRU mini-buffer-pools as well as the main buffer pool. Rearrange things so that data collected in CheckpointStats includes SLRU activity. Also remove the Shutdown{CLOG,CommitTS,SUBTRANS,MultiXact}() functions, because they were redundant after the shutdown checkpoint that immediately precedes them. (I'm not sure if they were ever needed, but they aren't now.)

* Fix checksum calculation in the new sorting GiST build.Heikki Linnakangas2020-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we're bypassing the buffer manager, we need to call PageSetChecksumInplace() directly. As reported by Justin Pryzby. In the passing, add RelationOpenSmgr() calls before all smgrwrite() and smgrextend() calls. Tom added one before the first smgrextend() call in commit c2bb287025, which seems to be enough, but let's play it safe and do it before each one. That's how it's done in the similar code in nbtsort.c, too. Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20200920224446.GF30557@telsasoft.com
