* Consistently quote encoding and locale names in messagesPeter Eisentraut2012-04-13

* Replace empty locale name with implied value in CREATE DATABASE and initdb.Tom Lane2012-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | setlocale() accepts locale name "" as meaning "the locale specified by the process's environment variables". Historically we've accepted that for Postgres' locale settings, too. However, it's fairly unsafe to store an empty string in a new database's pg_database.datcollate or datctype fields, because then the interpretation could vary across postmaster restarts, possibly resulting in index corruption and other unpleasantness. Instead, we should expand "" to whatever it means at the moment of calling CREATE DATABASE, which we can do by saving the value returned by setlocale(). For consistency, make initdb set up the initial lc_xxx parameter values the same way. initdb was already doing the right thing for empty locale names, but it did not replace non-empty names with setlocale results. On a platform where setlocale chooses to canonicalize the spellings of locale names, this would result in annoying inconsistency. (It seems that popular implementations of setlocale don't do such canonicalization, which is a pity, but the POSIX spec certainly allows it to be done.) The same risk of inconsistency leads me to not venture back-patching this, although it could certainly be seen as a longstanding bug. Per report from Jeff Davis, though this is not his proposed patch.
* Extend object access hook framework to support arguments, and DROP.Robert Haas2012-03-09
| | | | | | | | | This allows loadable modules to get control at drop time, perhaps for the purpose of performing additional security checks or to log the event. The initial purpose of this code is to support sepgsql, but other applications should be possible as well. KaiGai Kohei, reviewed by me.

* Support SECURITY LABEL on databases, tablespaces, and roles.Robert Haas2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | This requires a new shared catalog, pg_shseclabel. Along the way, fix the security_label regression tests so that they don't monkey with the labels of any pre-existing objects. This is unlikely to matter in practice, since only the label for the "dummy" provider was being manipulated. But this way still seems cleaner. KaiGai Kohei, with fairly extensive hacking by me.

* DDL support for collationsPeter Eisentraut2011-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | - collowner field - CREATE COLLATION - ALTER COLLATION - DROP COLLATION - COMMENT ON COLLATION - integration with extensions - pg_dump support for the above - dependency management - psql tab completion - psql \dO command
* Per-column collation supportPeter Eisentraut2011-02-08
| | | | | | | | This adds collation support for columns and domains, a COLLATE clause to override it per expression, and B-tree index support. Peter Eisentraut reviewed by Pavel Stehule, Itagaki Takahiro, Robert Haas, Noah Misch

* Object access hook framework, with post-creation hook.Robert Haas2010-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | After a SQL object is created, we provide an opportunity for security or logging plugins to get control; for example, a security label provider could use this to assign an initial security label to newly created objects. The basic infrastructure is (hopefully) reusable for other types of events that might require similar treatment. KaiGai Kohei, with minor adjustments.
* Move copydir() prototype into its own header file.Robert Haas2010-11-12
| | | | | | | Having this in src/include/port.h makes no sense, now that copydir.c lives in src/backend/strorage rather than src/port. Along the way, remove an obsolete comment from contrib/pg_upgrade that makes reference to the old location.

* Standardize get_whatever_oid functions for object types withRobert Haas2010-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | unqualified names. - Add a missing_ok parameter to get_tablespace_oid. - Avoid duplicating get_tablespace_od guts in objectNamesToOids. - Add a missing_ok parameter to get_database_oid. - Replace get_roleid and get_role_checked with get_role_oid. - Add get_namespace_oid, get_language_oid, get_am_oid. - Refactor existing code to use new interfaces. Thanks to KaiGai Kohei for the review.

* Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas2010-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists, GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code shorter, too. Design and review by Tom Lane.
* Lock database while running drop database in Hot Standby to protectSimon Riggs2010-01-16
| | | | | | | | | against concurrent reconnection. Failure during testing showed issue was possible, even though earlier analysis seemed to indicate it would not be required. Use LockSharedObjectForSession() before ResolveRecoveryConflictWithDatabase() and hold lock until end of processing for that WAL record. Simple approach to avoid introducing further bugs at this stage of development on an improbable issue.
* First part of refactoring of code for ResolveRecoveryConflict. PurposesSimon Riggs2010-01-14
| | | | | | | | of this are to centralise the conflict code to allow further change, as well as to allow passing through the full reason for the conflict through to the conflicting backends. Backend state alters how we can handle different types of conflict so this is now required. As originally suggested by Heikki, no longer optional.
* During Hot Standby, fix drop database when sessions idle.Simon Riggs2010-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | Previously we only cancelled sessions that were in-transaction. Simple fix is to just cancel all sessions without waiting. Doing it this way avoids complicating common code paths, which would not be worth the trouble to cover this rare case. Problem report and fix by Andres Freund, edited somewhat by me

* Allow read only connections during recovery, known as Hot Standby.Simon Riggs2009-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Enabled by recovery_connections = on (default) and forcing archive recovery using a recovery.conf. Recovery processing now emulates the original transactions as they are replayed, providing full locking and MVCC behaviour for read only queries. Recovery must enter consistent state before connections are allowed, so there is a delay, typically short, before connections succeed. Replay of recovering transactions can conflict and in some cases deadlock with queries during recovery; these result in query cancellation after max_standby_delay seconds have expired. Infrastructure changes have minor effects on normal running, though introduce four new types of WAL record. New test mode "make standbycheck" allows regression tests of static command behaviour on a standby server while in recovery. Typical and extreme dynamic behaviours have been checked via code inspection and manual testing. Few port specific behaviours have been utilised, though primary testing has been on Linux only so far. This commit is the basic patch. Additional changes will follow in this release to enhance some aspects of behaviour, notably improved handling of conflicts, deadlock detection and query cancellation. Changes to VACUUM FULL are also required. Simon Riggs, with significant and lengthy review by Heikki Linnakangas, including streamlined redesign of snapshot creation and two-phase commit. Important contributions from Florian Pflug, Mark Kirkwood, Merlin Moncure, Greg Stark, Gianni Ciolli, Gabriele Bartolini, Hannu Krosing, Robert Haas, Tatsuo Ishii, Hiroyuki Yamada plus support and feedback from many other community members.
* Make initdb behave sanely when the selected locale has codeset "US-ASCII".Tom Lane2009-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per discussion, this should result in defaulting to SQL_ASCII encoding. The original coding could not support that because it conflated selection of SQL_ASCII encoding with not being able to determine the encoding. Adjust pg_get_encoding_from_locale()'s API to distinguish these cases, and fix callers appropriately. Only initdb actually changes behavior, since the other callers were perfectly content to consider these cases equivalent. Per bug #5178 from Boh Yap. Not going to bother back-patching, since no one has complained before and there's an easy workaround (namely, specify the encoding you want).
* Make it possibly to specify GUC params per user and per database.Alvaro Herrera2009-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a new catalog pg_db_role_setting where they are now stored, and better encapsulate the code that deals with settings into its realm. The old datconfig and rolconfig columns are removed. psql has gained a \drds command to display the settings. Backwards compatibility warning: while the backwards-compatible system views still have the config columns, they no longer completely represent the configuration for a user or database. Catalog version bumped.
* Remove flatfiles.c, which is now obsolete.Alvaro Herrera2009-09-01
| | | | | | Recent commits have removed the various uses it was supporting. It was a performance bottleneck, according to bug report #4919 by Lauris Ulmanis; seems it slowed down user creation after a billion users.

* Modify CREATE DATABASE to enforce that the source database's encoding settingTom Lane2009-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | must be used for the new database, except when copying from template0. This is the same rule that we now enforce for locale settings, and it has the same motivation: databases other than template0 might contain data that would be invalid according to a different setting. This represents another step in a continuing process of locking down ways in which encoding violations could occur inside the backend. Per discussion of a few days ago. In passing, fix pre-existing breakage of mbregress.sh, and fix up a couple of ereport() calls in dbcommands.c that failed to specify sqlstate codes.

* Check that connection limit is within valid range. IOW, not < -1.Heikki Linnakangas2009-01-30
| | | | | | It's missing in older versions too, but it doesn't seem worth back-porting. All negative are just harmlessly treated as "no limit", and tightening the check might even brake an application that relies on it.
* Add a new option to RestoreBkpBlocks() to indicate if a cleanup lock shouldHeikki Linnakangas2009-01-20
| | | | | | | | | be used instead of the normal exclusive lock, and make WAL redo functions responsible for calling RestoreBkpBlocks(). They know better what kind of a lock they need. At the moment, this just moves things around with no functional change, but makes the hot standby patch that's under review cleaner.

* Implement ALTER DATABASE SET TABLESPACE to move a whole database (or at leastTom Lane2008-11-07
| | | | | | as much of it as lives in its default tablespace) to a new tablespace. Guillaume Lelarge, with some help from Bernd Helmle and Tom Lane
* Remove all uses of the deprecated functions heap_formtuple, heap_modifytuple,Tom Lane2008-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | and heap_deformtuple in favor of the newer functions heap_form_tuple et al (which do the same things but use bool control flags instead of arbitrary char values). Eliminate the former duplicate coding of these functions, reducing the deprecated functions to mere wrappers around the newer ones. We can't get rid of them entirely because add-on modules probably still contain many instances of the old coding style. Kris Jurka
* Force a checkpoint in CREATE DATABASE before starting to copy the files,Heikki Linnakangas2008-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | to process any pending unlinks for the source database. Before, if you dropped a relation in the template database just before CREATE DATABASE, and a checkpoint happened during copydir(), the checkpoint might delete a file that we're just about to copy, causing lstat() in copydir() to fail with ENOENT. Backpatch to 8.3, where the pending unlinks were introduced. Per report by Matthew Wakeling and analysis by Tom Lane.
* Rewrite the FSM. Instead of relying on a fixed-size shared memory segment, theHeikki Linnakangas2008-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM). This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation. Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.
* Tighten the check in initdb and CREATE DATABASE that the chosen encodingHeikki Linnakangas2008-09-23
| | | | | matches the encoding of the locale. LC_COLLATE is now checked in addition to LC_CTYPE.
* Make LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE database-level settings. Collation andHeikki Linnakangas2008-09-23
| | | | | | | | ctype are now more like encoding, stored in new datcollate and datctype columns in pg_database. This is a stripped-down version of Radek Strnad's patch, with further changes by me.
* Improve CREATE/DROP/RENAME DATABASE so that when failing because the sourceTom Lane2008-08-04
| | | | | | | | | or target database is being accessed by other users, it tells you whether the "other users" are live sessions or uncommitted prepared transactions. (Indeed, it tells you exactly how many of each, but that's mostly just because it was easy to do so.) This should help forestall the gotcha of not realizing that a prepared transaction is what's blocking the command. Per discussion.
* Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.
* Fix rmtree() so that it keeps going after failure to remove any individualTom Lane2008-04-18
| | | | | | file; the idea is that we should clean up as much as we can, even if there's some problem removing one file. Make the error messages a bit less misleading, too. In passing, const-ify function arguments.
* Fix two race conditions between the pending unlink mechanism that was put inHeikki Linnakangas2008-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | place to prevent reusing relation OIDs before next checkpoint, and DROP DATABASE. First, if a database was dropped, bgwriter would still try to unlink the files that the rmtree() call by the DROP DATABASE command has already deleted, or is just about to delete. Second, if a database is dropped, and another database is created with the same OID, bgwriter would in the worst case delete a relation in the new database that happened to get the same OID as a dropped relation in the old database. To fix these race conditions: - make rmtree() ignore ENOENT errors. This fixes the 1st race condition. - make ForgetDatabaseFsyncRequests forget unlink requests as well. - force checkpoint on in dropdb on all platforms Since ForgetDatabaseFsyncRequests() is asynchronous, the 2nd change isn't enough on its own to fix the problem of dropping and creating a database with same OID, but forcing a checkpoint on DROP DATABASE makes it sufficient. Per Tom Lane's bug report and proposal. Backpatch to 8.3.
* Repair two places where SIGTERM exit could leave shared memory stateTom Lane2008-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | corrupted. (Neither is very important if SIGTERM is used to shut down the whole database cluster together, but there's a problem if someone tries to SIGTERM individual backends.) To do this, introduce new infrastructure macros PG_ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP/PG_END_ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP that take care of transiently pushing an on_shmem_exit cleanup hook. Also use this method for createdb cleanup --- that wasn't a shared-memory-corruption problem, but SIGTERM abort of createdb could leave orphaned files lying around. Backpatch as far as 8.2. The shmem corruption cases don't exist in 8.1, and the createdb usage doesn't seem important enough to risk backpatching further.
* Move the HTSU_Result enum definition into snapshot.h, to avoid includingAlvaro Herrera2008-03-26
