* Check that partitions are not in use when dropping constraintsAlvaro Herrera2019-07-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user creates a deferred constraint in a partition, and in a transaction they cause the constraint's trigger execution to be deferred until commit time *and* drop the constraint, then when commit time comes the queued trigger will fail to run because the trigger object will have been dropped. This is explained because when a constraint gets dropped in a partitioned table, the recursion to drop the ones in partitions is done by the dependency mechanism, not by ALTER TABLE traversing the recursion tree as in all other cases. In the non-partitioned case, this problem is avoided by checking that the table is not "in use" by alter-table; other alter-table subcommands that recurse to partitions do that check for each partition. But the dependency mechanism doesn't have a way to do that. Fix the problem by applying the same check to all partitions during ALTER TABLE's "prep" phase, which correctly raises the necessary error.

* Install dependencies to prevent dropping partition key columns.Tom Lane2019-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic in ATExecDropColumn that rejects dropping partition key columns is quite an inadequate defense, because it doesn't execute in cases where a column needs to be dropped due to cascade from something that only the column, not the whole partitioned table, depends on. That leaves us with a badly broken partitioned table; even an attempt to load its relcache entry will fail. We really need to have explicit pg_depend entries that show that the column can't be dropped without dropping the whole table. Hence, add those entries. In v12 and HEAD, bump catversion to ensure that partitioned tables will have such entries. We can't do that in released branches of course, so in v10 and v11 this patch affords protection only to partitioned tables created after the patch is installed. Given the lack of field complaints (this bug was found by fuzz-testing not by end users), that's probably good enough. In passing, fix ATExecDropColumn and ATPrepAlterColumnType messages to be more specific about which partition key column they're complaining about. Per report from Manuel Rigger. Back-patch to v10 where partitioned tables were added.

* Fix thinko in construction of old_conpfeqop list.Tom Lane2019-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This should lappend the OIDs, not lcons them; the existing code produced a list in reversed order. This is harmless for single-key FKs or FKs where all the key columns are of the same type, which probably explains how it went unnoticed. But if those conditions are not met, ATAddForeignKeyConstraint would make the wrong decision about whether an existing FK needs to be revalidated. I think it would almost always err in the safe direction by revalidating a constraint that didn't need it. You could imagine scenarios where the pfeqop check was fooled by swapping the types of two FK columns in one ALTER TABLE, but that case would probably be rejected by other tests, so it might be impossible to get to the worst-case scenario where an FK should be revalidated and isn't. (And even then, it's likely to be fine, unless there are weird inconsistencies in the equality behavior of the replacement types.) However, this is a performance bug at least. Noted while poking around to see whether lcons calls could be converted to lappend. This bug is old, dating to commit cb3a7c2b9, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix for dropped columns in a partitioned table's default partitionAlvaro Herrera2019-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We forgot to map column numbers to/from the default partition for various operations, leading to valid cases failing with spurious errors, such as ERROR: attribute N of type some_partition has been dropped It was also possible that the search for conflicting rows in the default partition when attaching another partition would fail to detect some. Secondarily, it was also possible that such a search should be skipped (because the constraint was implied) but wasn't. Fix all this by mapping column numbers when necessary.

* Fix partitioned index creation with foreign partitionsAlvaro Herrera2019-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a partitioned tables contains foreign tables as partitions, it is not possible to implement unique or primary key indexes -- but when regular indexes are created, there is no reason to do anything other than ignoring such partitions. We were raising errors upon encountering the foreign partitions, which is unfriendly and doesn't protect against any actual problems. Relax this restriction so that index creation is allowed on partitioned tables containing foreign partitions, becoming a no-op on them. (We may later want to redefine this so that the FDW is told to create the indexes on the foreign side.) This applies to CREATE INDEX, as well as ALTER TABLE / ATTACH PARTITION and CREATE TABLE / PARTITION OF. Backpatch to 11, where indexes on partitioned tables were introduced.

* Further fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE's handling of indexes and index constraints.Tom Lane2019-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reverts all the code changes of commit e76de8861, which turns out to have been seriously misguided. We can't wait till later to compute the definition string for an index; we must capture that before applying the data type change for any column it depends on, else ruleutils.c will deliverr wrong/misleading results. (This fine point was documented nowhere, of course.) I'd also managed to forget that ATExecAlterColumnType executes once per ALTER COLUMN TYPE clause, not once per statement; which resulted in the code being basically completely broken for any case in which multiple ALTER COLUMN TYPE clauses are applied to a table having non-constraint indexes that must be rebuilt. Through very bad luck, none of the existing test cases nor the ones added by e76de8861 caught that, but of course it was soon found in the field. The previous patch also had an implicit assumption that if a constraint's index had a dependency on a table column, so would the constraint --- but that isn't actually true, so it didn't fix such cases. Instead of trying to delete unneeded index dependencies later, do the is-there-a-constraint lookup immediately on seeing an index dependency, and switch to remembering the constraint if so. In the unusual case of multiple column dependencies for a constraint index, this will result in duplicate constraint lookups, but that's not that horrible compared to all the other work that happens here. Besides, such cases did not work at all before, so it's hard to argue that they're performance-critical for anyone. Per bug #15865 from Keith Fiske. As before, back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE failure with a partial exclusion constraint.Tom Lane2019-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ATExecAlterColumnType failed to consider the possibility that an index that needs to be rebuilt might be a child of a constraint that needs to be rebuilt. We missed this so far because usually a constraint index doesn't have a direct dependency on its table, just on the constraint object. But if there's a WHERE clause, then dependency analysis of the WHERE clause results in direct dependencies on the column(s) mentioned in WHERE. This led to trying to drop and rebuild both the constraint and its underlying index. In v11/HEAD, we successfully drop both the index and the constraint, and then try to rebuild both, and of course the second rebuild hits a duplicate-index-name problem. Before v11, it fails with obscure messages about a missing relation OID, due to trying to drop the index twice. This is essentially the same kind of problem noted in commit 20bef2c31: the possible dependency linkages are broader than what ATExecAlterColumnType was designed for. It was probably OK when written, but it's certainly been broken since the introduction of partial exclusion constraints. Fix by adding an explicit check for whether any of the indexes-to-be-rebuilt belong to any of the constraints-to-be-rebuilt, and ignoring any that do. In passing, fix a latent bug introduced by commit 8b08f7d48: in get_constraint_index() we must "continue" not "break" when rejecting a relation of a wrong relkind. This is harmless today because we don't expect that code path to be taken anyway; but if there ever were any relations to be ignored, the existing coding would have an extremely undesirable dependency on the order of pg_depend entries. Also adjust a couple of obsolete comments. Per bug #15835 from Yaroslav Schekin. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15835-32d9b7a76c06a7a9@postgresql.org

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix DefineIndex so that it doesn't attempt to pass down a to-be-reused index relfilenode to a child index creation, and fix TryReuseIndex to not think that reuse is sensible for a partitioned index. In v11, this fixes a problem where ALTER TABLE on a partitioned table could assign the same relfilenode to several different child indexes, causing very nasty catalog corruption --- in fact, attempting to DROP the partitioned table then leads not only to a database crash, but to inability to restart because the same crash will recur during WAL replay. Either of these two changes would be enough to prevent the failure, but since neither action could possibly be sane, let's put in both changes for future-proofing. In HEAD, no such bug manifests, but that's just an accidental consequence of having changed the pg_class representation of partitioned indexes to have relfilenode = 0. Both of these changes still seem like smart future-proofing. This is only a stop-gap because the code for ALTER TABLE on a partitioned table with a no-op type change still leaves a great deal to be desired. As the added regression tests show, it gets things wrong for comments on child indexes/constraints, and it is regenerating child indexes it doesn't have to. However, fixing those problems will take more work which may not get back-patched into v11. We need a fix for the corruption problem now. Per bug #15672 from Jianing Yang. Patch by me, regression test cases based on work by Amit Langote, who also did a lot of the investigative work. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15672-b9fa7db32698269f@postgresql.org

* Fix failures in validateForeignKeyConstraint's slow path.Tom Lane2019-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The foreign-key-checking loop in ATRewriteTables failed to ignore relations without storage (e.g., partitioned tables), unlike the initial loop. This accidentally worked as long as RI_Initial_Check succeeded, which it does in most practical cases (including all the ones exercised in the existing regression tests :-(). However, if that failed, as for instance when there are permissions issues, then we entered the slow fire-the-trigger-on-each-tuple path. And that would try to read from the referencing relation, and fail if it lacks storage. A second problem, recently introduced in HEAD, was that this loop had been broken by sloppy refactoring for the tableam API changes. Repair both issues, and add a regression test case so we have some coverage on this code path. Back-patch as needed to v11. (It looks like this code could do with additional bulletproofing, but let's get a working test case in place first.)

* Fix CREATE VIEW to allow zero-column views.Tom Lane2019-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We should logically have allowed this case when we allowed zero-column tables, but it was overlooked.

Hence, back-patch to all supported branches. Arrange the added test cases to provide coverage of the related pg_dump code paths (since these views will be dumped and reloaded during the pg_upgrade regression test).

* Fix heap_getattr() handling of fast defaults.Andres Freund2019-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously heap_getattr() returned NULL for attributes with a fast default value (c.f. 16828d5c0273), as it had no handling whatsoever for that case. A previous fix, 7636e5c60f, attempted to fix issues caused by this oversight, but just expanding OLD tuples for triggers doesn't actually solve the underlying issue. One known consequence of this bug is that the check for HOT updates can return the wrong result, when a previously fast-default'ed column is set to NULL. Which in turn means that an index over a column with fast default'ed columns might be corrupt if the underlying column(s) allow NULLs. Fix by handling fast default columns in heap_getattr(), remove now superfluous expansion in GetTupleForTrigger().

* Fix droppability of constraints upon partition detachAlvaro Herrera2019-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were failing to set conislocal correctly for constraints in partitions after partition detach, leading to those constraints becoming undroppable. Fix by setting the flag correctly. Existing databases might contain constraints with the conislocal wrongly set to false, for partitions that were detached; this situation should be fixable by applying an UPDATE on pg_constraint to set conislocal true. This problem should otherwise be innocuous and should disappear across a dump/restore or pg_upgrade. Secondarily, when constraint drop was attempted in a partitioned table, ATExecDropConstraint would try to recurse to partitions after doing performDeletion() of the constraint in the partitioned table itself; but since the constraint in the partitions are dropped by the initial call of performDeletion() (because of following dependencies), the recursion step would fail since it would not find the constraint, causing the whole operation to fail.

* Fix creation of duplicate foreign keys on partitionsAlvaro Herrera2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a foreign key in a partitioned table, if some partitions already have equivalent constraints, we wastefully create duplicates of the constraints instead of attaching to the existing ones. That's inconsistent with the de-duplication that is applied when a table is attached as a partition. To fix, reuse the FK-cloning code instead of having a separate code path.

* Move CloneForeignKeyConstraints to tablecmds.cAlvaro Herrera2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My commit 3de241dba86f introduced some code to create a clone of a foreign key to a partition, but I put it in pg_constraint.c because it was too close to the contents of the pg_constraint row. With the previous commit that split out the constraint tuple deconstruction into its own routine, it makes more sense to have the FK-cloning function in tablecmds.c, mostly because its static subroutine can then be used by a future bugfix. My initial posting of this patch had this routine as static in tablecmds.c, but sadly this function is already part of the Postgres 11 ABI as exported from pg_constraint.c, so keep it as exported also just to avoid breaking any possible users of it.
* Restrict the use of temporary namespace in two-phase transactionsMichael Paquier2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempting to use a temporary table within a two-phase transaction is forbidden for ages. However, there have been uncovered grounds for a couple of other object types and commands which work on temporary objects with two-phase commit. In short, trying to create, lock or drop an object on a temporary schema should not be authorized within a two-phase transaction, as it would cause its state to create dependencies with other sessions, causing all sorts of side effects with the existing session or other sessions spawned later on trying to use the same temporary schema name. Regression tests are added to cover all the grounds found, the original report mentioned function creation, but monitoring closer there are many other patterns with LOCK, DROP or CREATE EXTENSION which are involved. One of the symptoms resulting in combining both is that the session which used the temporary schema is not able to shut down completely, waiting for being able to drop the temporary schema, something that it cannot complete because of the two-phase transaction involved with temporary objects. In this case the client is able to disconnect but the session remains alive on the backend-side, potentially blocking connection backend slots from being used. Other problems reported could also involve server crashes. This is back-patched down to v10, which is where 9b013dc has introduced MyXactFlags, something that this patch relies on.

* Improve ANALYZE's handling of concurrent-update scenarios.Tom Lane2019-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the rule for whether or not a tuple seen by ANALYZE should be included in its sample. When we last touched this logic, in commit 51e1445f1, we weren't thinking very hard about tuples being UPDATEd by a long-running concurrent transaction. In such a case, we might see the pre-image as either LIVE or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS depending on timing; and we might see the post-image not at all, or as INSERT_IN_PROGRESS. Since the existing code will not sample either DELETE_IN_PROGRESS or INSERT_IN_PROGRESS tuples, this leads to concurrently-updated rows being omitted from the sample entirely. That's not very helpful, and it's especially the wrong thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back. The right thing seems to be to sample DELETE_IN_PROGRESS rows just as if they were live. This makes the "sample it" and "count it" decisions the same, which seems good for consistency. It's clearly the right thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back; in effect, we are sampling as though IN_PROGRESS transactions haven't happened yet. Also, this combination of choices ensures maximum robustness against the different combinations of whether and in which state we might see the pre- and post-images of an update. It's slightly annoying that we end up recording immediately-out-of-date stats in the case where the transaction does commit, but on the other hand the stats are fine for columns that didn't change in the update. And the alternative of sampling INSERT_IN_PROGRESS rows instead seems like a bad idea, because then the sampling would be inconsistent with the way rows are counted for the stats report. Per report from Mark Chambers; thanks to Jeff Janes for diagnosing what was happening. Back-patch to all supported versions.

* Ignore inherited temp relations from other sessions when truncatingMichael Paquier2018-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Inheritance trees can include temporary tables if the parent is permanent, which makes possible the presence of multiple temporary children from different sessions. Trying to issue a TRUNCATE on the parent in this scenario causes a failure, so similarly to any other queries just ignore such cases, which makes TRUNCATE work transparently. This makes truncation behave similarly to any other DML query working on the parent table with queries which need to be issues on children. A set of isolation tests is added to cover basic cases.

* Disable WAL-skipping optimization for COPY on views and foreign tablesMichael Paquier2018-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | COPY can skip writing WAL when loading data on a table which has been created in the same transaction as the one loading the data, however this cannot work on views or foreign table as this would result in trying to flush relation files which do not exist. So disable the optimization so as commands are able to work the same way with any configuration of wal_level. Tests are added to cover the different cases, which need to have wal_level set to minimal to allow the problem to show up, and that is not the default configuration. Reported-by: Luis M.

* Fix lock level used for partition when detaching itAlvaro Herrera2018-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | For probably bogus reasons, we acquire only AccessShareLock on the partition when we try to detach it from its parent partitioned table. This can cause ugly things to happen if another transaction is doing any sort of DDL to the partition concurrently. Upgrade that lock to ShareUpdateExclusiveLock, which per discussion seems to be the minimum needed. Reported by Robert Haas.

* DETACH PARTITION: hold locks on indexes until end of transactionAlvaro Herrera2018-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a partition is detached from its parent, we acquire locks on all attached indexes to also detach them ... but we release those locks immediately. This is a violation of the policy of keeping locks on user objects to the end of the transaction. Bug introduced in 8b08f7d4820f. It's unclear that there are any ill effects possible, but it's clearly wrong nonetheless. It's likely that bad behavior *is* possible, but mostly because the relation that the index is for is only locked with AccessShareLock, which is an older bug that shall be fixed separately. While touching that line of code, close the index opened with index_open() using index_close() instead of relation_close(). No difference in practice, but let's be consistent.

* Make constraint rename issue relcache invalidation on target relationMichael Paquier2018-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a constraint gets renamed, it may have associated with it a target relation (for example domain constraints don't have one). Not invalidating the target relation cache when issuing the renaming can result in issues with subsequent commands that refer to the old constraint name using the relation cache, causing various failures. One pattern spotted was using CREATE TABLE LIKE after a constraint renaming.

* Improve detection of child-process SIGPIPE failures.Tom Lane2018-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit ffa4cbd62 added logic to detect SIGPIPE failure of a COPY child process, but it only worked correctly if the SIGPIPE occurred in the immediate child process. Depending on the shell in use and the complexity of the shell command string, we might instead get back an exit code of 128 + SIGPIPE, representing a shell error exit reporting SIGPIPE in the child process. We could just hack up ClosePipeToProgram() to add the extra case, but it seems like this is a fairly general issue deserving a more general and better-documented solution. I chose to add a couple of functions in src/common/wait_error.c, which is a natural place to know about wait-result encodings, that will test for either a specific child-process signal type or any child-process signal failure. Then, adjust other places that were doing ad-hoc tests of this type to use the common functions. In RestoreArchivedFile, this fixes a race condition affecting whether the process will report an error or just silently proc_exit(1): before, that depended on whether the intermediate shell got SIGTERM'd itself or reported a child process failing on SIGTERM. Like the previous patch, back-patch to v10; we could go further but there seems no real need to. Per report from Erik Rijkers.

* Fix misapplication of pgstat_count_truncate to wrong relation.Tom Lane2018-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The stanza of ExecuteTruncate[Guts] that truncates a target table's toast relation re-used the loop local variable "rel" to reference the toast rel. This was safe enough when written, but commit d42358efb added code below that that supposed "rel" still pointed to the parent table. Therefore, the stats counter update was applied to the wrong relcache entry (the toast rel not the user rel); and if we were unlucky and that relcache entry had been flushed during reindex_relation, very bad things could ensue. (I'm surprised that CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS testing hasn't found this. I'm even more surprised that the problem wasn't detected during the development of d42358efb; it must not have been tested in any case with a toast table, as the incorrect stats counts are very obvious.) To fix, replace use of "rel" in that code branch with a more local variable. Adjust test cases added by d42358efb so that some of them use tables with toast tables. Per bug #15540 from Pan Bian. Back-patch to 9.5 where d42358efb came in. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15540-01078812338195c0@postgresql.org

* Don't mark partitioned indexes invalid unnecessarilyAlvaro Herrera2018-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an indexes is created on a partitioned table using ONLY (don't recurse to partitions), it gets marked invalid until index partitions are attached for each table partition. But there's no reason to do this if there are no partitions ... and moreover, there's no way to get the index to become valid afterwards, because all partitions that get created/attached get their own index partition already attached to the parent index, so there's no chance to do ALTER INDEX ... ATTACH PARTITION that would make the parent index valid. Fix by not marking the index as invalid to begin with. This is very similar to 9139aa19423b, but the pg_dump aspect does not appear to be relevant until we add FKs that can point to PKs on partitioned tables. (I tried to cause the pg_upgrade test to break by leaving some of these bogus tables around, but wasn't able to.) Making this change means that an index that was supposed to be invalid in the insert_conflict regression test is no longer invalid; reorder the DDL so that the test continues to verify the behavior we want it to.

* Handle EPIPE more sanely when we close a pipe reading from a program.Tom Lane2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, any program launched by COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM inherited the server's setting of SIGPIPE handling, i.e. SIG_IGN. Hence, if we were doing COPY FROM PROGRAM and closed the pipe early, the child process would see EPIPE on its output file and typically would treat that as a fatal error, in turn causing the COPY to report error. Similarly, one could get a failure report from a query that didn't read all of the output from a contrib/file_fdw foreign table that uses file_fdw's PROGRAM option. To fix, ensure that child programs inherit SIG_DFL not SIG_IGN processing of SIGPIPE. This seems like an all-around better situation since if the called program wants some non-default treatment of SIGPIPE, it would expect to have to set that up for itself. Then in COPY, if it's COPY FROM PROGRAM and we stop reading short of detecting EOF, treat a SIGPIPE exit from the called program as a non-error condition. This still allows us to report an error for any case where the called program gets SIGPIPE on some other file descriptor. As coded, we won't report a SIGPIPE if we stop reading as a result of seeing an in-band EOF marker (e.g. COPY BINARY EOF marker). It's somewhat debatable whether we should complain if the called program continues to transmit data after an EOF marker. However, it seems like we should avoid throwing error in any questionable cases, especially in a back-patched fix, and anyway it would take additional code to make such an error get reported consistently. Back-patch to v10. We could go further back, since COPY FROM PROGRAM has been around awhile, but AFAICS the only way to reach this situation using core or contrib is via file_fdw, which has only supported PROGRAM sources since v10. The COPY statement per se has no feature whereby it'd stop reading without having hit EOF or an error already. Therefore, I don't see any upside to back-patching further that'd outweigh the risk of complaints about behavioral change. Per bug #15449 from Eric Cyr.

* Disallow COPY FREEZE on partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This didn't actually work: COPY would fail to flush the right files, and instead would try to flush a non-existing file, causing the whole transaction to fail. Cope by raising an error as soon as the command is sent instead, to avoid a nasty later surprise. Of course, it would be much better to make it work, but we don't have a patch for that yet, and we don't know if we'll want to backpatch one when we do.
