* Ensure that pg_auth_members.grantor is always valid.Robert Haas2022-08-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, "GRANT foo TO bar" or "GRANT foo TO bar GRANTED BY baz" would record the OID of the grantor in pg_auth_members.grantor, but that role could later be dropped without modifying or removing the pg_auth_members record. That's not great, because we typically try to avoid dangling references in catalog data. Now, a role grant depends on the grantor, and the grantor can't be dropped without removing the grant or changing the grantor. "DROP OWNED BY" will remove the grant, just as it does for other kinds of privileges. "REASSIGN OWNED BY" will not, again just like what we do in other cases involving privileges. pg_auth_members now has an OID column, because that is needed in order for dependencies to work. It also now has an index on the grantor column, because otherwise dropping a role would require a sequential scan of the entire table to see whether the role's OID is in use as a grantor. That probably wouldn't be too large a problem in practice, but it seems better to have an index just in case. A follow-on patch is planned with the goal of more thoroughly rationalizing the behavior of role grants. This patch is just trying to do enough to make sure that the data we store in the catalogs is at some basic level valid.

* Allow granting SET and ALTER SYSTEM privileges on GUC parameters.Tom Lane2022-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows "PGC_SUSET" parameters to be set by non-superusers if they have been explicitly granted the privilege to do so. The privilege to perform ALTER SYSTEM SET/RESET on a specific parameter can also be granted. Such privileges are cluster-wide, not per database. They are tracked in a new shared catalog, pg_parameter_acl. Granting and revoking these new privileges works as one would expect. One caveat is that PGC_USERSET GUCs are unaffected by the SET privilege --- one could wish that those were handled by a revocable grant to PUBLIC, but they are not, because we couldn't make it robust enough for GUCs defined by extensions.

* Allow publishing the tables of schema.Amit Kapila2021-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new option "FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA" in Create/Alter Publication allows one or more schemas to be specified, whose tables are selected by the publisher for sending the data to the subscriber. The new syntax allows specifying both the tables and schemas. For example: CREATE PUBLICATION pub1 FOR TABLE t1,t2,t3, ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA s1,s2; OR ALTER PUBLICATION pub1 ADD TABLE t1,t2,t3, ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA s1,s2; A new system table "pg_publication_namespace" has been added, to maintain the schemas that the user wants to publish through the publication. Modified the output plugin (pgoutput) to publish the changes if the relation is part of schema publication. Updates pg_dump to identify and dump schema publications. Updates the \d family of commands to display schema publications and \dRp+ variant will now display associated schemas if any.

* Fix "unexpected relkind" error when denying permissions on toast tables.Tom Lane2019-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_relkind_objtype, and hence get_object_type, failed when applied to a toast table. This is not a good thing, because it prevents reporting of perfectly legitimate permissions errors. (At present, these functions are in fact *only* used to determine the ObjectType argument for acl_error() calls.) It seems best to have them fall back to returning OBJECT_TABLE in every case where they can't determine an object type for a pg_class entry, so do that. In passing, make some edits to alter.c to make it more obvious that those calls of get_object_type() are used only for error reporting. This might save a few cycles in the non-error code path, too.

* Add an enforcement mechanism for global object names in regression tests.Tom Lane2019-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 18555b132 we tentatively established a rule that regression tests should use names containing "regression" for databases, and names starting with "regress_" for all other globally-visible object names, so as to circumscribe the side-effects that "make installcheck" could have on an existing installation. This commit adds a simple enforcement mechanism for that rule: if the code is compiled with ENFORCE_REGRESSION_TEST_NAME_RESTRICTIONS defined, it will emit a warning (not an error) whenever a database, role, tablespace, subscription, or replication origin name is created that doesn't obey the rule. Running one or more buildfarm members with that symbol defined should be enough to catch new violations, at least in the regular regression tests. Most TAP tests wouldn't notice such warnings, but that's actually fine because TAP tests don't execute against an existing server anyway. Since it's already the case that running src/test/modules/ tests in installcheck mode is deprecated, we can use that as a home for tests that seem unsafe to run against an existing server, such as tests that might have side-effects on existing roles. Document that (though this commit doesn't in itself make it any less safe than before). Update regress.sgml to define these restrictions more clearly, and to clean up assorted lack-of-up-to-date-ness in its descriptions of the available regression tests.

* Don't include heapam.h from others headers.Andres Freund2019-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | heapam.h previously was included in a number of widely used headers (e.g. execnodes.h, indirectly in executor.h, ...). That's problematic on its own, as heapam.h contains a lot of low-level details that don't need to be exposed that widely, but becomes more problematic with the upcoming introduction of pluggable table storage - it seems inappropriate for heapam.h to be included that widely afterwards. heapam.h was largely only included in other headers to get the HeapScanDesc typedef (which was defined in heapam.h, even though HeapScanDescData is defined in relscan.h). The better solution here seems to be to just use the underlying struct (forward declared where necessary). Similar for BulkInsertState. Another problem was that LockTupleMode was used in executor.h - parts of the file tried to cope without heapam.h, but due to the fact that it indirectly included it, several subsequent violations of that goal were not not noticed. We could just reuse the approach of declaring parameters as int, but it seems nicer to move LockTupleMode to lockoptions.h - that's not a perfect location, but also doesn't seem bad. As a number of files relied on implicitly included heapam.h, a significant number of files grew an explicit include. It's quite probably that a few external projects will need to do the same.

* Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.Andres Freund2018-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

There is also support for procedures in various utility commands such as COMMENT and GRANT, as well as support in pg_dump and psql. Support for defining procedures is available in all the languages supplied by the core distribution.

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

I also renamed two new SQL functions, pg_get_statisticsextdef -> pg_get_statisticsobjdef pg_statistic_ext_is_visible -> pg_statistics_obj_is_visible to conform better with this terminology.

* Implement multivariate n-distinct coefficientsAlvaro Herrera2017-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for explicitly declared statistic objects (CREATE STATISTICS), allowing collection of statistics on more complex combinations that individual table columns. Companion commands DROP STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are added too. All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions. This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient on user-specified sets of columns in a single table. This is useful to estimate number of distinct groups in GROUP BY and DISTINCT clauses; estimation errors there can cause over-allocation of memory in hashed aggregates, for instance, so it's a worthwhile problem to solve. A new special pseudo-type pg_ndistinct is used. (num-distinct estimation was deemed sufficiently useful by itself that this is worthwhile even if no further statistic types are added immediately; so much so that another version of essentially the same functionality was submitted by Kyotaro Horiguchi: https://postgr.es/m/20150828.173334.114731693.horiguchi.kyotaro@lab.ntt.co.jp though this commit does not use that code.)

* Remove objname/objargs split for referring to objectsPeter Eisentraut2017-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In simpler times, it might have worked to refer to all kinds of objects by a list of name components and an optional argument list. But this doesn't work for all objects, which has resulted in a collection of hacks to place various other nodes types into these fields, which have to be unpacked at the other end. This makes it also weird to represent lists of such things in the grammar, because they would have to be lists of singleton lists, to make the unpacking work consistently. The other problem is that keeping separate name and args fields makes it awkward to deal with lists of functions. Change that by dropping the objargs field and have objname, renamed to object, be a generic Node, which can then be flexibly assigned and managed using the normal Node mechanisms. In many cases it will still be a List of names, in some cases it will be a string Value, for types it will be the existing Typename, for functions it will now use the existing ObjectWithArgs node type. Some of the more obscure object types still use somewhat arbitrary nested lists. Reviewed-by: Jim Nasby <Jim.Nasby@BlueTreble.com> Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>

Also, by encapsulating what happens in detail during an UPDATE, this facilitates the upcoming WARM patch, which is going to add a few more lines to the update case making the boilerplate even more boring. The original CatalogUpdateIndexes is removed; there was only one use left, and since it's just three lines, we can as well expand it in place there. We could keep it, but WARM is going to break all the UPDATE out-of-core callsites anyway, so there seems to be no benefit in doing so.

| | | | | | | | | | I used the wrong variable here. Doesn't make a difference today because the only plausible caller passes a non-NULL variable, but someday it will be wrong, and even today's correctness is subtle: the caller that does pass a NULL is never invoked because of object type constraints. Surely not a condition to rely on. Noted by Coverity
* Reserve the "pg_" namespace for rolesStephen Frost2016-04-08
| | | | | | | | | This will prevent users from creating roles which begin with "pg_" and will check for those roles before allowing an upgrade using pg_upgrade. This will allow for default roles to be provided at initdb time. Reviews by José Luis Tallón and Robert Haas
* Support ALTER THING .. DEPENDS ON EXTENSIONAlvaro Herrera2016-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new dependency type which marks an object as depending on an extension, such that if the extension is dropped, the object automatically goes away; and also, if the database is dumped, the object is included in the dump output. Currently the grammar supports this for indexes, triggers, materialized views and functions only, although the utility code is generic so adding support for more object types is a matter of touching the parser rules only.

* Make ALTER .. SET SCHEMA do nothing, instead of throwing an ERROR.Robert Haas2015-11-19
| | | | | | | | | This was already true for CREATE EXTENSION, but historically has not been true for other object types. Therefore, this is a backward incompatibility. Per discussion on pgsql-hackers, everyone seems to agree that the new behavior is better. Marti Raudsepp, reviewed by Haribabu Kommi and myself
* Remove variable shadowingAlvaro Herrera2015-04-07
| | | | | | Commit a2e35b53 should have removed the variable declaration in the inner block, but didn't. As a result, the returned address might end up not being what was intended.
* Allow CURRENT/SESSION_USER to be used in certain commandsAlvaro Herrera2015-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commands such as ALTER USER, ALTER GROUP, ALTER ROLE, GRANT, and the various ALTER OBJECT / OWNER TO, as well as ad-hoc clauses related to roles such as the AUTHORIZATION clause of CREATE SCHEMA, the FOR clause of CREATE USER MAPPING, and the FOR ROLE clause of ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES can now take the keywords CURRENT_USER and SESSION_USER as user specifiers in place of an explicit user name. This commit also fixes some quite ugly handling of special standards- mandated syntax in CREATE USER MAPPING, which in particular would fail to work in presence of a role named "current_user". The special role specifiers PUBLIC and NONE also have more consistent handling now. Also take the opportunity to add location tracking to user specifiers. Authors: Kyotaro Horiguchi.

* Change many routines to return ObjectAddress rather than OIDAlvaro Herrera2015-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The changed routines are mostly those that can be directly called by ProcessUtilitySlow; the intention is to make the affected object information more precise, in support for future event trigger changes. Originally it was envisioned that the OID of the affected object would be enough, and in most cases that is correct, but upon actually implementing the event trigger changes it turned out that ObjectAddress is more widely useful. Additionally, some command execution routines grew an output argument that's an object address which provides further info about the executed command. To wit: * for ALTER DOMAIN / ADD CONSTRAINT, it corresponds to the address of the new constraint * for ALTER OBJECT / SET SCHEMA, it corresponds to the address of the schema that originally contained the object. * for ALTER EXTENSION {ADD, DROP} OBJECT, it corresponds to the address of the object added to or dropped from the extension. There's no user-visible change in this commit, and no functional change either. Discussion: 20150218213255.GC6717@tamriel.snowman.net Reviewed-By: Stephen Frost, Andres Freund

* 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.
* Row-Level Security Policies (RLS)Stephen Frost2014-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Building on the updatable security-barrier views work, add the ability to define policies on tables to limit the set of rows which are returned from a query and which are allowed to be added to a table. Expressions defined by the policy for filtering are added to the security barrier quals of the query, while expressions defined to check records being added to a table are added to the with-check options of the query. New top-level commands are CREATE/ALTER/DROP POLICY and are controlled by the table owner. Row Security is able to be enabled and disabled by the owner on a per-table basis using ALTER TABLE .. ENABLE/DISABLE ROW SECURITY. Per discussion, ROW SECURITY is disabled on tables by default and must be enabled for policies on the table to be used. If no policies exist on a table with ROW SECURITY enabled, a default-deny policy is used and no records will be visible. By default, row security is applied at all times except for the table owner and the superuser. A new GUC, row_security, is added which can be set to ON, OFF, or FORCE. When set to FORCE, row security will be applied even for the table owner and superusers. When set to OFF, row security will be disabled when allowed and an error will be thrown if the user does not have rights to bypass row security. Per discussion, pg_dump sets row_security = OFF by default to ensure that exports and backups will have all data in the table or will error if there are insufficient privileges to bypass row security. A new option has been added to pg_dump, --enable-row-security, to ask pg_dump to export with row security enabled. A new role capability, BYPASSRLS, which can only be set by the superuser, is added to allow other users to be able to bypass row security using row_security = OFF.
