* Drop no-op CoerceToDomain nodes from expressions at planning time.Tom Lane2018-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a domain has no constraints, then CoerceToDomain doesn't really do anything and can be simplified to a RelabelType. This not only eliminates cycles at execution, but allows the planner to optimize better (for instance, match the coerced expression to an index on the underlying column). However, we do have to support invalidating the plan later if a constraint gets added to the domain. That's comparable to the case of a change to a SQL function that had been inlined into a plan, so all the necessary logic already exists for plans depending on functions. We need only duplicate or share that logic for domains. ALTER DOMAIN ADD/DROP CONSTRAINT need to be taught to send out sinval messages for the domain's pg_type entry, since those operations don't update that row. (ALTER DOMAIN SET/DROP NOT NULL do update that row, so no code change is needed for them.) Testing this revealed what's really a pre-existing bug in plpgsql: it caches the SQL-expression-tree expansion of type coercions and had no provision for invalidating entries in that cache. Up to now that was only a problem if such an expression had inlined a SQL function that got changed, which is unlikely though not impossible. But failing to track changes of domain constraints breaks an existing regression test case and would likely cause practical problems too. We could fix that locally in plpgsql, but what seems like a better idea is to build some generic infrastructure in plancache.c to store standalone expressions and track invalidation events for them. (It's tempting to wonder whether plpgsql's "simple expression" stuff could use this code with lower overhead than its current use of the heavyweight plancache APIs. But I've left that idea for later.) Other stuff fixed in passing: * Allow estimate_expression_value() to drop CoerceToDomain unconditionally, effectively assuming that the coercion will succeed. This will improve planner selectivity estimates for cases involving estimatable expressions that are coerced to domains. We could have done this independently of everything else here, but there wasn't previously any need for eval_const_expressions_mutator to know about CoerceToDomain at all. * Use a dlist for plancache.c's list of cached plans, rather than a manually threaded singly-linked list. That eliminates a potential performance problem in DropCachedPlan. * Fix a couple of inconsistencies in typecmds.c about whether operations on domains drop RowExclusiveLock on pg_type. Our common practice is that DDL operations do drop catalog locks, so standardize on that choice. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/19958.1544122124@sss.pgh.pa.us
* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* Make TupleTableSlots extensible, finish split of existing slot type.Andres Freund2018-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit completes the work prepared in 1a0586de36, splitting the old TupleTableSlot implementation (which could store buffer, heap, minimal and virtual slots) into four different slot types. As described in the aforementioned commit, this is done with the goal of making tuple table slots extensible, to allow for pluggable table access methods. To achieve runtime extensibility for TupleTableSlots, operations on slots that can differ between types of slots are performed using the TupleTableSlotOps struct provided at slot creation time. That includes information from the size of TupleTableSlot struct to be allocated, initialization, deforming etc. See the struct's definition for more detailed information about callbacks TupleTableSlotOps. I decided to rename TTSOpsBufferTuple to TTSOpsBufferHeapTuple and ExecCopySlotTuple to ExecCopySlotHeapTuple, as that seems more consistent with other naming introduced in recent patches. There's plenty optimization potential in the slot implementation, but according to benchmarking the state after this commit has similar performance characteristics to before this set of changes, which seems sufficient. There's a few changes in execReplication.c that currently need to poke through the slot abstraction, that'll be repaired once the pluggable storage patchset provides the necessary infrastructure.

* Redesign initialization of partition routing structuresAlvaro Herrera2018-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This speeds up write operations (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, COPY, as well as the future MERGE) on partitioned tables. This changes the setup for tuple routing so that it does far less work during the initial setup and pushes more work out to when partitions receive tuples. PartitionDispatchData structs for sub-partitioned tables are only created when a tuple gets routed through it. The possibly large arrays in the PartitionTupleRouting struct have largely been removed. The partitions[] array remains but now never contains any NULL gaps. Previously the NULLs had to be skipped during ExecCleanupTupleRouting(), which could add a large overhead to the cleanup when the number of partitions was large. The partitions[] array is allocated small to start with and only enlarged when we route tuples to enough partitions that it runs out of space. This allows us to keep simple single-row partition INSERTs running quickly. Redesign The arrays in PartitionTupleRouting which stored the tuple translation maps have now been removed. These have been moved out into a PartitionRoutingInfo struct which is an additional field in ResultRelInfo. The find_all_inheritors() call still remains by far the slowest part of ExecSetupPartitionTupleRouting(). This commit just removes the other slow parts. In passing also rename the tuple translation maps from being ParentToChild and ChildToParent to being RootToPartition and PartitionToRoot. The old names mislead you into thinking that a partition of some sub-partitioned table would translate to the rowtype of the sub-partitioned table rather than the root partitioned table.

* Introduce notion of different types of slots (without implementing them).Andres Freund2018-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming work intends to allow pluggable ways to introduce new ways of storing table data. Accessing those table access methods from the executor requires TupleTableSlots to be carry tuples in the native format of such storage methods; otherwise there'll be a significant conversion overhead. Different access methods will require different data to store tuples efficiently (just like virtual, minimal, heap already require fields in TupleTableSlot). To allow that without requiring additional pointer indirections, we want to have different structs (embedding TupleTableSlot) for different types of slots. Thus different types of slots are needed, which requires adapting creators of slots. The slot that most efficiently can represent a type of tuple in an executor node will often depend on the type of slot a child node uses. Therefore we need to track the type of slot is returned by nodes, so parent slots can create slots based on that. Relatedly, JIT compilation of tuple deforming needs to know which type of slot a certain expression refers to, so it can create an appropriate deforming function for the type of tuple in the slot. But not all nodes will only return one type of slot, e.g. an append node will potentially return different types of slots for each of its subplans. Therefore add function that allows to query the type of a node's result slot, and whether it'll always be the same type (whether it's fixed). This can be queried using ExecGetResultSlotOps(). The scan, result, inner, outer type of slots are automatically inferred from ExecInitScanTupleSlot(), ExecInitResultSlot(), left/right subtrees respectively. If that's not correct for a node, that can be overwritten using new fields in PlanState. This commit does not introduce the actually abstracted implementation of different kind of TupleTableSlots, that will be left for a followup commit. The different types of slots introduced will, for now, still use the same backing implementation. While this already partially invalidates the big comment in tuptable.h, it seems to make more sense to update it later, when the different TupleTableSlot implementations actually exist.

* Rejigger materializing and fetching a HeapTuple from a slot.Andres Freund2018-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously materializing a slot always returned a HeapTuple. As current work aims to reduce the reliance on HeapTuples (so other storage systems can work efficiently), that needs to change. Thus split the tasks of materializing a slot (i.e. making it independent from the underlying storage / other memory contexts) from fetching a HeapTuple from the slot. For brevity, allow to fetch a HeapTuple from a slot and materializing the slot at the same time, controlled by a parameter. For now some callers of ExecFetchSlotHeapTuple, with materialize = true, expect that changes to the heap tuple will be reflected in the underlying slot. Those places will be adapted in due course, so while not pretty, that's OK for now. Also rename ExecFetchSlotTuple to ExecFetchSlotHeapTupleDatum and ExecFetchSlotTupleDatum to ExecFetchSlotHeapTupleDatum, as it's likely that future storage methods will need similar methods. There already is ExecFetchSlotMinimalTuple, so the new names make the naming scheme more coherent.

* Lower lock level for renaming indexesPeter Eisentraut2018-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change lock level for renaming index (either ALTER INDEX or implicitly via some other commands) from AccessExclusiveLock to ShareUpdateExclusiveLock. One reason we need a strong lock for relation renaming is that the name change causes a rebuild of the relcache entry. Concurrent sessions that have the relation open might not be able to handle the relcache entry changing underneath them. Therefore, we need to lock the relation in a way that no one can have the relation open concurrently. But for indexes, the relcache handles reloads specially in RelationReloadIndexInfo() in a way that keeps changes in the relcache entry to a minimum. As long as no one keeps pointers to rd_amcache and rd_options around across possible relcache flushes, which is the case, this ought to be safe. We also want to use a self-exclusive lock for correctness, so that concurrent DDL doesn't overwrite the rename if they start updating while still seeing the old version. Therefore, we use ShareUpdateExclusiveLock, which is already used by other DDL commands that want to operate in a concurrent manner. The reason this is interesting at all is that renaming an index is a typical part of a concurrent reindexing workflow (CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY new + DROP INDEX CONCURRENTLY old + rename back). And indeed a future built-in REINDEX CONCURRENTLY might rely on the ability to do concurrent renames as well.

* Fix missing role dependencies for some schema and type ACLs.Tom Lane2018-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes several related cases in which pg_shdepend entries were never made, or were lost, for references to roles appearing in the ACLs of schemas and/or types. While that did no immediate harm, if a referenced role were later dropped, the drop would be allowed and would leave a dangling reference in the object's ACL. That still wasn't a big problem for normal database usage, but it would cause obscure failures in subsequent dump/reload or pg_upgrade attempts, taking the form of attempts to grant privileges to all-numeric role names. (I think I've seen field reports matching that symptom, but can't find any right now.) Several cases are fixed here: 1. ALTER DOMAIN SET/DROP DEFAULT would lose the dependencies for any existing ACL entries for the domain. This case is ancient, dating back as far as we've had pg_shdepend tracking at all. 2. If a default type privilege applies, CREATE TYPE recorded the ACL properly but forgot to install dependency entries for it. This dates to the addition of default privileges for types in 9.2. 3. If a default schema privilege applies, CREATE SCHEMA recorded the ACL properly but forgot to install dependency entries for it. This dates to the addition of default privileges for schemas in v10 (commit ab89e465c). Another somewhat-related problem is that when creating a relation rowtype or implicit array type, TypeCreate would apply any available default type privileges to that type, which we don't really want since such an object isn't supposed to have privileges of its own. (You can't, for example, drop such privileges once they've been added to an array type.) ab89e465c is also to blame for a race condition in the regression tests: privileges.sql transiently installed globally-applicable default privileges on schemas, which sometimes got absorbed into the ACLs of schemas created by concurrent test scripts. This should have resulted in failures when privileges.sql tried to drop the role holding such privileges; but thanks to the bug fixed here, it instead led to dangling ACLs in the final state of the regression database. We'd managed not to notice that, but it became obvious in the wake of commit da906766c, which allowed the race condition to occur in pg_upgrade tests. To fix, add a function recordDependencyOnNewAcl to encapsulate what callers of get_user_default_acl need to do; while the original call sites got that right via ad-hoc code, none of the later-added ones have. Also change GenerateTypeDependencies to generate these dependencies, which requires adding the typacl to its parameter list. (That might be annoying if there are any extensions calling that function directly; but if there are, they're most likely buggy in the same way as the core callers were, so they need work anyway.) While I was at it, I changed GenerateTypeDependencies to accept most of its parameters in the form of a Form_pg_type pointer, making its parameter list a bit less unwieldy and mistake-prone. The test race condition is fixed just by wrapping the addition and removal of default privileges into a single transaction, so that that state is never visible externally. We might eventually prefer to separate out tests of default privileges into a script that runs by itself, but that would be a bigger change and would make the tests run slower overall. Back-patch relevant parts to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15719.1541725287@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Fix dependency handling of partitions and inheritance for ON COMMITMichael Paquier2018-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit fixes a set of issues with ON COMMIT actions when used on partitioned tables and tables with inheritance children: - Applying ON COMMIT DROP on a partitioned table with partitions or on a table with inheritance children caused a failure at commit time, with complains about the children being already dropped as all relations are dropped one at the same time. - Applying ON COMMIT DELETE on a partition relying on a partitioned table which uses ON COMMIT DROP would cause the partition truncation to fail as the parent is removed first. The solution to the first problem is to handle the removal of all the dependencies in one go instead of dropping relations one-by-one, based on a suggestion from Álvaro Herrera. So instead all the relation OIDs to remove are gathered and then processed in one round of multiple deletions. The solution to the second problem is to reorder the actions, with truncation happening first and relation drop done after. Even if it means that a partition could be first truncated, then immediately dropped if its partitioned table is dropped, this has the merit to keep the code simple as there is no need to do existence checks on the relations to drop. Contrary to a manual TRUNCATE on a partitioned table, ON COMMIT DELETE does not cascade to its partitions. The ON COMMIT action defined on each partition gets the priority.

This commit fixes the bug that NOT NULL constraints declared in the parent table would not be honored in the partition. One reported issue that is not fixed is that a DEFAULT declared in the child is not used when inserting through the parent. That would amount to a behavioral change that's better not back-patched. This rewrite makes the code simpler: 1. instead of checking for duplicate column names in its own block, reuse the original one that already did that; 2. instead of concatenating the list of columns from parent and the one declared in the partition and scanning the result to (incorrectly) propagate defaults and not-null constraints, just scan the latter searching the former for a match, and merging sensibly. This works because we know the list in the parent is already correct and there can only be one parent. This rewrite makes ColumnDef->is_from_parent unused, so it's removed on branch master; on released branches, it's kept as an unused field in order not to cause ABI incompatibilities. This commit also adds a test case for creating partitions with collations mismatching that on the parent table, something that is closely related to the code being patched. No code change is introduced though, since that'd be a behavior change that could break some (broken) working applications. Amit Langote wrote a less invasive fix for the original NOT NULL/defaults bug, but while I kept the tests he added, I ended up not using his original code. Ashutosh Bapat reviewed Amit's fix. Amit reviewed mine.

* Block creation of partitions with open references to its parentMichael Paquier2018-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a partition is created as part of a trigger processing, it is possible that the partition which just gets created changes the properties of the table the executor of the ongoing command relies on, causing a subsequent crash. This has been found possible when for example using a BEFORE INSERT which creates a new partition for a partitioned table being inserted to. Any attempt to do so is blocked when working on a partition, with regression tests added for both CREATE TABLE PARTITION OF and ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION.

* Fix tablespace handling for partitioned indexesAlvaro Herrera2018-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating partitioned indexes, the tablespace was not being saved for the parent index. This meant that subsequently created partitions would not use the right tablespace for their indexes. ALTER INDEX SET TABLESPACE and ALTER INDEX ALL IN TABLESPACE raised errors when tried; fix them too. This requires bespoke code for ATExecCmd() that applies to the special case when the tablespace move is just a catalog change.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Like for relations, switching this parameter is optimistic by turning it on each time a partitioned index gains a partition. So seeing this parameter set to true means that the partitioned index has or has had partitions. The flag cannot be reset yet for partitioned indexes, which is something not obvious anyway as partitioned relations exist to have partitions. This allows to track more conveniently partition trees for indexes, which will come in use with an upcoming patch helping in listing partition trees with an SQL-callable function.

* Correct attach/detach logic for FKs in partitionsAlvaro Herrera2018-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was no code to handle foreign key constraints on partitioned tables in the case of ALTER TABLE DETACH; and if you happened to ATTACH a partition that already had an equivalent constraint, that one was ignored and a new constraint was created. Adding this to the fact that foreign key cloning reuses the constraint name on the partition instead of generating a new name (as it probably should, to cater to SQL standard rules about constraint naming within schemas), the result was a pretty poor user experience -- the most visible failure was that just detaching a partition and re-attaching it failed with an error such as ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_constraint_conrelid_contypid_conname_index" DETAIL: Key (conrelid, contypid, conname)=(26702, 0, test_result_asset_id_fkey) already exists. because it would try to create an identically-named constraint in the partition. To make matters worse, if you tried to drop the constraint in the now-independent partition, that would fail because the constraint was still seen as dependent on the constraint in its former parent partitioned table: ERROR: cannot drop inherited constraint "test_result_asset_id_fkey" of relation "test_result_cbsystem_0001_0050_monthly_2018_09" This fix attacks the problem from two angles: first, when the partition is detached, the constraint is also marked as independent, so the drop now works. Second, when the partition is re-attached, we scan existing constraints searching for one matching the FK in the parent, and if one exists, we link that one to the parent constraint. So we don't end up with a duplicate -- and better yet, we don't need to scan the referenced table to verify that the constraint holds. To implement this I made a small change to previously planner-only struct ForeignKeyCacheInfo to contain the constraint OID; also relcache now maintains the list of FKs for partitioned tables too.

* Relax transactional restrictions on ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE (redux).Thomas Munro2018-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally committed as 15bc038f (plus some follow-ups), this was reverted in 28e07270 due to a problem discovered in parallel workers. This new version corrects that problem by sending the list of uncommitted enum values to parallel workers. Here follows the original commit message describing the change: To prevent possibly breaking indexes on enum columns, we must keep uncommitted enum values from getting stored in tables, unless we can be sure that any such column is new in the current transaction. Formerly, we enforced this by disallowing ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE from being executed at all in a transaction block, unless the target enum type had been created in the current transaction. This patch removes that restriction, and instead insists that an uncommitted enum value can't be referenced unless it belongs to an enum type created in the same transaction as the value. Per discussion, this should be a bit less onerous. It does require each function that could possibly return a new enum value to SQL operations to check this restriction, but there aren't so many of those that this seems unmaintainable.

* 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.

* Centralize executor's opening/closing of Relations for rangetable entries.Tom Lane2018-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create an array estate->es_relations[] paralleling the es_range_table, and store references to Relations (relcache entries) there, so that any given RT entry is opened and closed just once per executor run. Scan nodes typically still call ExecOpenScanRelation, but ExecCloseScanRelation is no more; relation closing is now done centrally in ExecEndPlan. This is slightly more complex than one would expect because of the interactions with relcache references held in ResultRelInfo nodes. The general convention is now that ResultRelInfo->ri_RelationDesc does not represent a separate relcache reference and so does not need to be explicitly closed; but there is an exception for ResultRelInfos in the es_trig_target_relations list, which are manufactured by ExecGetTriggerResultRel and have to be cleaned up by ExecCleanUpTriggerState. (That much was true all along, but these ResultRelInfos are now more different from others than they used to be.) To allow the partition pruning logic to make use of es_relations[] rather than having its own relcache references, adjust PartitionedRelPruneInfo to store an RT index rather than a relation OID.

* Use slots more widely in tuple mapping code and make naming more consistent.Andres Freund2018-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's inefficient to use a single slot for mapping between tuple descriptors for multiple tuples, as previously done when using ConvertPartitionTupleSlot(), as that means the slot's tuple descriptors change for every tuple. Previously we also, via ConvertPartitionTupleSlot(), built new tuples after the mapping even in cases where we, immediately afterwards, access individual columns again. Refactor the code so one slot, on demand, is used for each partition. That avoids having to change the descriptor (and allows to use the more efficient "fixed" tuple slots). Then use slot->slot mapping, to avoid unnecessarily forming a tuple. As the naming between the tuple and slot mapping functions wasn't consistent, rename them to execute_attr_map_{tuple,slot}. It's likely that we'll also rename convert_tuples_by_* to denote that these functions "only" build a map, but that's left for later.

* 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.

(In some cases the match isn't perfect, so the Asserts are weaker than you might expect; but this seems OK, as per discussion.)

* 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.
