* Improve two error messages related to foreign keys on partitioned tablesMichael Paquier2018-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | Error messages for creating a foreign key on a partitioned table using ONLY or NOT VALID were wrong in mentioning the objects they worked on. This commit adds on the way some regression tests missing for those cases.

* Fix catalog insertion order for ATTACH PARTITIONAlvaro Herrera2018-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2fbdf1b38bc changed the order in which we inserted catalog rows when creating partitions, so that we could remove an unsightly hack required for untimely relcache invalidations. However, that commit only changed the ordering for CREATE TABLE PARTITION OF, and left ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION unchanged, so the latter can be affected when catalog invalidations occur, for instance when the partition key involves an SQL function.

* Fix event triggers for partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2018-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Index DDL cascading on partitioned tables introduced a way for ALTER TABLE to be called reentrantly. This caused an an important deficiency in event trigger support to be exposed: on exiting the reentrant call, the alter table state object was clobbered, causing a crash when the outer alter table tries to finalize its processing. Fix the crash by creating a stack of event trigger state objects. There are still ways to cause things to misbehave (and probably other crashers) with more elaborate tricks, but at least it now doesn't crash in the obvious scenario. Backpatch to 9.5, where DDL deparsing of event triggers was introduced.

* Assign constraint name when cloning FK definition for partitionsMichael Paquier2018-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is for example used when attaching a partition to a partitioned table which includes foreign keys, and in this case the constraint name has been missing in the data cloned. This could lead to hard crashes, as when validating the foreign key constraint, the constraint name is always expected. Particularly, when using log_min_messages >= DEBUG1, a log message would be generated with this unassigned constraint name, leading to an assertion failure on HEAD. While on it, rename a variable in ATExecAttachPartition which was declared twice with the same name.

* Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE to not open a relation without any lock.Tom Lane2018-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the column being modified is referenced by a foreign key constraint of another table, ALTER TABLE would open the other table (to re-parse the constraint's definition) without having first obtained a lock on it. This was evidently intentional, but that doesn't mean it's really safe. It's especially not safe in 9.3, which pre-dates use of MVCC scans for catalog reads, but even in current releases it doesn't seem like a good idea. We know we'll need AccessExclusiveLock shortly to drop the obsoleted constraint, so just get that a little sooner to close the hole. Per testing with a patch that complains if we open a relation without holding any lock on it. I don't plan to back-patch that patch, but we should close the holes it identifies in all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2038.1538335244@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Create an RTE field to record the query's lock mode for each relation.Tom Lane2018-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add RangeTblEntry.rellockmode, which records the appropriate lock mode for each RTE_RELATION rangetable entry (either AccessShareLock, RowShareLock, or RowExclusiveLock depending on the RTE's role in the query). This patch creates the field and makes all creators of RTE nodes fill it in reasonably, but for the moment nothing much is done with it. The plan is to replace assorted post-parser logic that re-determines the right lockmode to use with simple uses of rte->rellockmode. For now, just add Asserts in each of those places that the rellockmode matches what they are computing today. (In some cases the match isn't perfect, so the Asserts are weaker than you might expect; but this seems OK, as per discussion.) This passes check-world for me, but it seems worth pushing in this state to see if the buildfarm finds any problems in cases I failed to test. catversion bump due to change of stored rules.

* Recurse to sequences on ownership change for all relkindsPeter Eisentraut2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a table ownership is changed, we must apply that also to any owned sequences. (Otherwise, it would result in a situation that cannot be restored, because linked sequences must have the same owner as the table.) But this was previously only applied to regular tables and materialized views. But it should also apply to at least foreign tables. This patch removes the relkind check altogether, because it doesn't save very much and just introduces the possibility of similar omissions.

* Split ExecStoreTuple into ExecStoreHeapTuple and ExecStoreBufferHeapTuple.Andres Freund2018-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming changes introduce further types of tuple table slots, in preparation of making table storage pluggable. New storage methods will have different representation of tuples, therefore the slot accessor should refer explicitly to heap tuples. Instead of just renaming the functions, split it into one function that accepts heap tuples not residing in buffers, and one accepting ones in buffers. Previously one function was used for both, but that was a bit awkward already, and splitting will allow us to represent slot types for tuples in buffers and normal memory separately. This is split out from the patch introducing abstract slots, as this largely consists out of mechanical changes.

* Fix ALTER/TYPE on columns referenced by FKs in partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2018-09-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When ALTER TABLE ... SET DATA TYPE affects a column referenced by constraints and indexes, it drop those constraints and indexes and recreates them afterwards, so that the definitions match the new data type. The original code did this by dropping one object at a time (commit 077db40fa1f3 of May 2004), which worked fine because the dependencies between the objects were pretty straightforward, and ordering the objects in a specific way was enough to make this work. However, when there are foreign key constraints in partitioned tables, the dependencies are no longer so straightforward, and we were getting errors when attempted: ERROR: cache lookup failed for constraint 16398 This can be fixed by doing all the drops in one pass instead, using performMultipleDeletions (introduced by df18c51f2955 of Aug 2006). With this change we can also remove the code to carefully order the list of objects to be deleted.

* Simplify partitioned table creation vs. relcacheAlvaro Herrera2018-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the original code, we were storing the pg_inherits row for a partitioned table too early: enough that we had a hack for relcache to avoid falling flat on its face while reading such a partial entry. If we finish the pg_class creation first and *then* store the pg_inherits entry, we don't need that hack. Also recognize that pg_class.relpartbound is not marked NOT NULL and therefore it's entirely possible to read null values, so having only Assert() protection isn't enough. Change those to if/elog tests instead. This qualifies as a robustness fix, so backpatch to pg11. In passing, remove one access that wasn't actually needed, and reword one message to be like all the others that check for the same thing.

* Fully enforce uniqueness of constraint names.Tom Lane2018-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's been true for a long time that we expect names of table and domain constraints to be unique among the constraints of that table or domain. However, the enforcement of that has been pretty haphazard, and it missed some corner cases such as creating a CHECK constraint and then an index constraint of the same name (as per recent report from André Hänsel). Also, due to the lack of an actual unique index enforcing this, duplicates could be created through race conditions. Moreover, the code that searches pg_constraint has been quite inconsistent about how to handle duplicate names if one did occur: some places checked and threw errors if there was more than one match, while others just processed the first match they came to. To fix, create a unique index on (conrelid, contypid, conname). Since either conrelid or contypid is zero, this will separately enforce uniqueness of constraint names among constraints of any one table and any one domain. (If we ever implement SQL assertions, and put them into this catalog, more thought might be needed. But it'd be at least as reasonable to put them into a new catalog; having overloaded this one catalog with two kinds of constraints was a mistake already IMO.) This index can replace the existing non-unique index on conrelid, though we need to keep the one on contypid for query performance reasons. Having done that, we can simplify the logic in various places that either coped with duplicates or neglected to, as well as potentially improve lookup performance when searching for a constraint by name. Also, as per our usual practice, install a preliminary check so that you get something more friendly than a unique-index violation report in the case complained of by André. And teach ChooseIndexName to avoid choosing autogenerated names that would draw such a failure. While it's not possible to make such a change in the back branches, it doesn't seem quite too late to put this into v11, so do so.

* Avoid using potentially-under-aligned page buffers.Tom Lane2018-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a project policy against using plain "char buf[BLCKSZ]" local or static variables as page buffers; preferred style is to palloc or malloc each buffer to ensure it is MAXALIGN'd. However, that policy's been ignored in an increasing number of places. We've apparently got away with it so far, probably because (a) relatively few people use platforms on which misalignment causes core dumps and/or (b) the variables chance to be sufficiently aligned anyway. But this is not something to rely on. Moreover, even if we don't get a core dump, we might be paying a lot of cycles for misaligned accesses. To fix, invent new union types PGAlignedBlock and PGAlignedXLogBlock that the compiler must allocate with sufficient alignment, and use those in place of plain char arrays. I used these types even for variables where there's no risk of a misaligned access, since ensuring proper alignment should make kernel data transfers faster. I also changed some places where we had been palloc'ing short-lived buffers, for coding style uniformity and to save palloc/pfree overhead. Since this seems to be a live portability hazard (despite the lack of field reports), back-patch to all supported versions. Patch by me; thanks to Michael Paquier for review.

* Improve TRUNCATE by avoiding early lock queueMichael Paquier2018-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A caller of TRUNCATE could previously queue for an access exclusive lock on a relation it may not have permission to truncate, potentially interfering with users authorized to work on it. This can be very intrusive depending on the lock attempted to be taken. For example, pg_authid could be blocked, preventing any authentication attempt to happen on a PostgreSQL instance. This commit fixes the case of TRUNCATE so as RangeVarGetRelidExtended is used with a callback doing the necessary ACL checks at an earlier stage, avoiding lock queuing issues, so as an immediate failure happens for unprivileged users instead of waiting on a lock that would not be taken. This is rather similar to the type of work done in cbe24a6 for CLUSTER, and the code of TRUNCATE is this time refactored so as there is no user-facing changes. As the commit for CLUSTER, no back-patch is done.

* Clarify use of temporary tables within partition treesMichael Paquier2018-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since their introduction, partition trees have been a bit lossy regarding temporary relations. Inheritance trees respect the following patterns: 1) a child relation can be temporary if the parent is permanent. 2) a child relation can be temporary if the parent is temporary. 3) a child relation cannot be permanent if the parent is temporary. 4) The use of temporary relations also imply that when both parent and child need to be from the same sessions. Partitions share many similar patterns with inheritance, however the handling of the partition bounds make the situation a bit tricky for case 1) as the partition code bases a lot of its lookup code upon PartitionDesc which does not really look after relpersistence. This causes for example a temporary partition created by session A to be visible by another session B, preventing this session B to create an extra partition which overlaps with the temporary one created by A with a non-intuitive error message. There could be use-cases where mixing permanent partitioned tables with temporary partitions make sense, but that would be a new feature. Partitions respect 2), 3) and 4) already. It is a bit depressing to see those error checks happening in MergeAttributes() whose purpose is different, but that's left as future refactoring work. Back-patch down to 10, which is where partitioning has been introduced, except that default partitions do not apply there. Documentation also includes limitations related to the use of temporary tables with partition trees.

* Fix ALTER TABLE .. ATTACH PARTITION ... DEFAULTAlvaro Herrera2018-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the table being attached contained values that contradict the default partition's partition constraint, it would fail to complain, because CommandCounterIncrement changes in 4dba331cb3dc coupled with some bogus coding in the existing ValidatePartitionConstraints prevented the partition constraint from being validated after all -- or rather, it caused to constraint to become an empty one, always succeeding. Fix by not re-reading the OID of the default partition in ATExecAttachPartition. To forestall similar problems, revise the existing code: * rename routine from ValidatePartitionConstraints() to QueuePartitionConstraintValidation, to better represent what it actually does. * add an Assert() to make sure that when queueing a constraint for a partition we're not overwriting a constraint previously queued. * add an Assert() that we don't try to invoke the special-purpose validation of the default partition when attaching the default partition itself. While at it, change some loops to obtain partition OIDs from partdesc->oids rather than find_all_inheritors; reduce the lock level of partitions being scanned from AccessExclusiveLock to ShareLock; rewrite QueuePartitionConstraintValidation in a recursive fashion rather than repetitive.

* Indexes with INCLUDE columns and their support in B-treeTeodor Sigaev2018-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces INCLUDE clause to index definition. This clause specifies a list of columns which will be included as a non-key part in the index. The INCLUDE columns exist solely to allow more queries to benefit from index-only scans. Also, such columns don't need to have appropriate operator classes. Expressions are not supported as INCLUDE columns since they cannot be used in index-only scans. Index access methods supporting INCLUDE are indicated by amcaninclude flag in IndexAmRoutine. For now, only B-tree indexes support INCLUDE clause. In B-tree indexes INCLUDE columns are truncated from pivot index tuples (tuples located in non-leaf pages and high keys). Therefore, B-tree indexes now might have variable number of attributes. This patch also provides generic facility to support that: pivot tuples contain number of their attributes in t_tid.ip_posid. Free 13th bit of t_info is used for indicating that. This facility will simplify further support of index suffix truncation. The changes of above are backward-compatible, pg_upgrade doesn't need special handling of B-tree indexes for that.

* Fast ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN with a non-NULL defaultAndrew Dunstan2018-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently adding a column to a table with a non-NULL default results in a rewrite of the table. For large tables this can be both expensive and disruptive. This patch removes the need for the rewrite as long as the default value is not volatile. The default expression is evaluated at the time of the ALTER TABLE and the result stored in a new column (attmissingval) in pg_attribute, and a new column (atthasmissing) is set to true. Any existing row when fetched will be supplied with the attmissingval. New rows will have the supplied value or the default and so will never need the attmissingval. Any time the table is rewritten all the atthasmissing and attmissingval settings for the attributes are cleared, as they are no longer needed. The most visible code change from this is in heap_attisnull, which acquires a third TupleDesc argument, allowing it to detect a missing value if there is one. In many cases where it is known that there will not be any (e.g. catalog relations) NULL can be passed for this argument. Andrew Dunstan, heavily modified from an original patch from Serge Rielau.

* Allow FOR EACH ROW triggers on partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2018-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, FOR EACH ROW triggers were not allowed in partitioned tables. Now we allow AFTER triggers on them, and on trigger creation we cascade to create an identical trigger in each partition. We also clone the triggers to each partition that is created or attached later. This means that deferred unique keys are allowed on partitioned tables, too.

* Fix relcache handling of the 'default' partitionAlvaro Herrera2018-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My commit 4dba331cb3dc that moved around CommandCounterIncrement calls in partitioning DDL code unearthed a problem with the relcache handling for the 'default' partition: the construction of a correct relcache entry for the partitioned table was at the mercy of lack of CCI calls in non-trivial amounts of code. This was prone to creating problems later on, as the code develops. This was visible as a test failure in a compile with RELCACHE_FORCE_RELASE (buildfarm member prion). The problem is that after the mentioned commit it was possible to create a relcache entry that had incomplete information regarding the default partition because I introduced a CCI between adding the catalog entries for the default partition (StorePartitionBound) and the update of pg_partitioned_table entry for its parent partitioned table (update_default_partition_oid). It seems the best fix is to move the latter so that it occurs inside the former; the purposeful lack of intervening CCI should be more obvious, and harder to break. I also remove a check in RelationBuildPartitionDesc that returns NULL if the key is not set. I couldn't find any place that needs this hack anymore; probably it was required because of bugs that have since been fixed. Fix a few typos I noticed while reviewing the code involved.

* Handle heap rewrites even better in logical decodingPeter Eisentraut2018-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Logical decoding should not publish anything about tables created as part of a heap rewrite during DDL. Those tables don't exist externally, so consumers of logical decoding cannot do anything sensible with that information. In ab28feae2bd3d4629bd73ae3548e671c57d785f0, we worked around this for built-in logical replication, but that was hack. This is a more proper fix: We mark such transient heaps using the new field pg_class.relwrite, linking to the original relation OID. By default, we ignore them in logical decoding before they get to the output plugin. Optionally, a plugin can register their interest in getting such changes, if they handle DDL specially, in which case the new field will help them get information about the actual table.

* Avoid having two PKs in a partitionAlvaro Herrera2018-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a table containing a primary key is attach as partition to a partitioned table which has a primary key with a different definition, we would happily create a second one in the new partition. Oops. It turns out that this is because an error check in DefineIndex is executed only if you tell it that it's being run by ALTER TABLE, and the original code here wasn't. Change it so that it does. Added a couple of test cases for this, also. A previously working test started to fail in a different way than before patch because the new check is called earlier; change the PK to plain UNIQUE so that the new behavior isn't invoked, so that the test continues to verify what we want it to verify.

* Fix improper uses of canonicalize_qual().Tom Lane2018-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the things canonicalize_qual() does is to remove constant-NULL subexpressions of top-level AND/OR clauses. It does that on the assumption that what it's given is a top-level WHERE clause, so that NULL can be treated like FALSE. Although this is documented down inside a subroutine of canonicalize_qual(), it wasn't mentioned in the documentation of that function itself, and some callers hadn't gotten that memo. Notably, commit d007a9505 caused get_relation_constraints() to apply canonicalize_qual() to CHECK constraints. That allowed constraint exclusion to misoptimize situations in which a CHECK constraint had a provably-NULL subclause, as seen in the regression test case added here, in which a child table that should be scanned is not. (Although this thinko is ancient, the test case doesn't fail before 9.2, for reasons I've not bothered to track down in detail. There may be related cases that do fail before that.) More recently, commit f0e44751d added an independent bug by applying canonicalize_qual() to index expressions, which is even sillier since those might not even be boolean. If they are, though, I think this could lead to making incorrect index entries for affected index expressions in v10. I haven't attempted to prove that though. To fix, add an "is_check" parameter to canonicalize_qual() to specify whether it should assume WHERE or CHECK semantics, and make it perform NULL-elimination accordingly. Adjust the callers to apply the right semantics, or remove the call entirely in cases where it's not known that the expression has one or the other semantics. I also removed the call in some cases involving partition expressions, where it should be a no-op because such expressions should be canonical already ... and was a no-op, independently of whether it could in principle have done something, because it was being handed the qual in implicit-AND format which isn't what it expects. In HEAD, add an Assert to catch that type of mistake in future. This represents an API break for external callers of canonicalize_qual(). While that's intentional in HEAD to make such callers think about which case applies to them, it seems like something we probably wouldn't be thanked for in released branches. Hence, in released branches, the extra parameter is added to a new function canonicalize_qual_ext(), and canonicalize_qual() is a wrapper that retains its old behavior. Patch by me with suggestions from Dean Rasheed. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/24475.1520635069@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Improve predtest.c's internal docs, and enhance its functionality a bit.Tom Lane2018-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit b08df9cab left things rather poorly documented as far as the exact semantics of "clause_is_check" mode went. Also, that mode did not really work correctly for predicate_refuted_by; although given the lack of specification as to what it should do, as well as the lack of any actual use-case, that's perhaps not surprising. Rename "clause_is_check" to "weak" proof mode, and provide specifications for what it should do. I defined weak refutation as meaning "truth of A implies non-truth of B", which makes it possible to use the mode in the part of relation_excluded_by_constraints that checks for mutually contradictory WHERE clauses. Fix up several places that did things wrong for that definition. (As far as I can see, these errors would only lead to failure-to-prove, not incorrect claims of proof, making them not serious bugs even aside from the fact that v10 contains no use of this mode. So there seems no need for back-patching.) In addition, teach predicate_refuted_by_recurse that it can use predicate_implied_by_recurse after all when processing a strong NOT-clause, so long as it asks for the correct proof strength. This is an optimization that could have been included in commit b08df9cab, but wasn't. Also, simplify and generalize the logic that checks for whether nullness of the argument of IS [NOT] NULL would force overall nullness of the predicate or clause. (This results in a change in the partition_prune test's output, as it is now able to prune an all-nulls partition that it did not recognize before.) In passing, in PartConstraintImpliedByRelConstraint, remove bogus conversion of the constraint list to explicit-AND form and then right back again; that accomplished nothing except forcing a useless extra level of recursion inside predicate_implied_by.

* Allow UNIQUE indexes on partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2018-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we restrict unique constraints on partitioned tables so that they must always include the partition key, then our standard approach to unique indexes already works --- each unique key is forced to exist within a single partition, so enforcing the unique restriction in each index individually is enough to have it enforced globally. Therefore we can implement unique indexes on partitions by simply removing a few restrictions (and adding others.)

* Fix application of identity values in some casesPeter Eisentraut2018-02-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Investigation of 2d2d06b7e27e3177d5bef0061801c75946871db3 revealed that identity values were not applied in some further cases, including logical replication subscribers, VALUES RTEs, and ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN. To fix all that, apply the identity column expression in build_column_default() instead of repeating the same logic at each call site. For ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN ... IDENTITY, the previous coding completely ignored that existing rows for the new column should have values filled in from the identity sequence. The coding using build_column_default() fails for this because the sequence ownership isn't registered until after ALTER TABLE, and we can't do it before because we don't have the column in the catalog yet. So we specially remember in ColumnDef the sequence name that we decided on and build a custom NextValueExpr using that. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>
