* Quick-hack fix for foreign key cascade vs triggers with transition tables.Tom Lane2017-09-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AFTER triggers using transition tables crashed if they were fired due to a foreign key ON CASCADE update. This is because ExecEndModifyTable flushes the transition tables, on the assumption that any trigger that could need them was already fired during ExecutorFinish. Normally that's true, because we don't allow transition-table-using triggers to be deferred. However, foreign key CASCADE updates force any triggers on the referencing table to be deferred to the outer query level, by means of the EXEC_FLAG_SKIP_TRIGGERS flag. I don't recall all the details of why it's like that and am pretty loath to redesign it right now. Instead, just teach ExecEndModifyTable to skip destroying the TransitionCaptureState when that flag is set. This will allow the transition table data to survive until end of the current subtransaction. This isn't a terribly satisfactory solution, because (1) we might be leaking the transition tables for much longer than really necessary, and (2) as things stand, an AFTER STATEMENT trigger will fire once per RI updating query, ie once per row updated or deleted in the referenced table. I suspect that is not per SQL spec. But redesigning this is a research project that we're certainly not going to get done for v10. So let's go with this hackish answer for now. In passing, tweak AfterTriggerSaveEvent to not save the transition_capture pointer into the event record for a deferrable trigger. This is not necessary to fix the current bug, but it avoids letting dangling pointers to long-gone transition tables persist in the trigger event queue. That's at least a safety feature. It might also allow merging shared trigger states in more cases than before. I added a regression test that demonstrates the crash on unpatched code, and also exposes the behavior of firing the AFTER STATEMENT triggers once per row update. Per bug #14808 from Philippe Beaudoin. Back-patch to v10. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170909064853.25630.12825@wrigleys.postgresql.org
* Even if some partitions are foreign, allow tuple routing.Robert Haas2017-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | This doesn't allow routing tuple to the foreign partitions themselves, but it permits tuples to be routed to regular partitions despite the presence of foreign partitions in the same inheritance hierarchy.

* Improve division of labor between execParallel.c and nodeGather[Merge].c.Tom Lane2017-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the responsibility for creating/destroying TupleQueueReaders into execParallel.c, to avoid duplicative coding in nodeGather.c and nodeGatherMerge.c. Also, instead of having DestroyTupleQueueReader do shm_mq_detach, do it in the caller (which is now only ExecParallelFinish). This means execParallel.c does both the attaching and detaching of the tuple-queue-reader shm_mqs, which seems less weird than the previous arrangement. These changes also eliminate a vestigial memory leak (of the pei->tqueue array). It's now demonstrable that rescans of Gather or GatherMerge don't leak memory.

* Avoid memory leaks when a GatherMerge node is rescanned.Tom Lane2017-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rescanning a GatherMerge led to leaking some memory in the executor's query-lifespan context, because most of the node's working data structures were simply abandoned and rebuilt from scratch. In practice, this might never amount to much, given the cost of relaunching worker processes --- but it's still pretty messy, so let's fix it. We can rearrange things so that the tuple arrays are simply cleared and reused, and we don't need to rebuild the TupleTableSlots either, just clear them. One small complication is that because we might get a different number of workers on each iteration, we can't keep the old convention that the leader's gm_slots[] entry is the last one; the leader might clobber a TupleTableSlot that we need for a worker in a future iteration. Hence, adjust the logic so that the leader has slot 0 always, while the active workers have slots 1..n. Back-patch to v10 to keep all the existing versions of nodeGatherMerge.c in sync --- because of the renumbering of the slots, there would otherwise be a very large risk that any future backpatches in this module would introduce bugs.

* Clean up shm_mq cleanup.Tom Lane2017-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic around shm_mq_detach was a few bricks shy of a load, because (contrary to the comments for shm_mq_attach) all it did was update the shared shm_mq state. That left us leaking a bit of process-local memory, but much worse, the on_dsm_detach callback for shm_mq_detach was still armed. That means that whenever we ultimately detach from the DSM segment, we'd run shm_mq_detach again for already-detached, possibly long-dead queues. This accidentally fails to fail today, because we only ever re-use a shm_mq's memory for another shm_mq, and multiple detach attempts on the last such shm_mq are fairly harmless. But it's gonna bite us someday, so let's clean it up. To do that, change shm_mq_detach's API so it takes a shm_mq_handle not the underlying shm_mq. This makes the callers simpler in most cases anyway. Also fix a few places in parallel.c that were just pfree'ing the handle structs rather than doing proper cleanup. Back-patch to v10 because of the risk that the revenant shm_mq_detach callbacks would cause a live bug sometime. Since this is an API change, it's too late to do it in 9.6. (We could make a variant patch that preserves API, but I'm not excited enough to do that.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8670.1504192177@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Code review for nodeGatherMerge.c.Tom Lane2017-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Comment the fields of GatherMergeState, and organize them a bit more sensibly. Comment GMReaderTupleBuffer more usefully too. Improve assorted other comments that were obsolete or just not very good English. Get rid of the use of a GMReaderTupleBuffer for the leader process; that was confusing, since only the "done" field was used, and that in a way redundant with need_to_scan_locally. In gather_merge_init, avoid calling load_tuple_array for already-known-exhausted workers. I'm not sure if there's a live bug there, but the case is unlikely to be well tested due to timing considerations. Remove some useless code, such as duplicating the tts_isempty test done by TupIsNull. Remove useless initialization of ps.qual, replacing that with an assertion that we have no qual to check. (If we did, the code would fail to check it.) Avoid applying heap_copytuple to a null tuple. While that fails to crash, it's confusing and it makes the code less legible not more so IMO. Propagate a couple of these changes into nodeGather.c, as well. Back-patch to v10, partly because of the possibility that the gather_merge_init change is fixing a live bug, but mostly to keep the branches in sync to ease future bug fixes.
* Separate reinitialization of shared parallel-scan state from ExecReScan.Tom Lane2017-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the parallel executor logic did reinitialization of shared state within the ExecReScan code for parallel-aware scan nodes. This is problematic, because it means that the ExecReScan call has to occur synchronously (ie, during the parent Gather node's ReScan call). That is swimming very much against the tide so far as the ExecReScan machinery is concerned; the fact that it works at all today depends on a lot of fragile assumptions, such as that no plan node between Gather and a parallel-aware scan node is parameterized. Another objection is that because ExecReScan might be called in workers as well as the leader, hacky extra tests are needed in some places to prevent unwanted shared-state resets. Hence, let's separate this code into two functions, a ReInitializeDSM call and the ReScan call proper. ReInitializeDSM is called only in the leader and is guaranteed to run before we start new workers. ReScan is returned to its traditional function of resetting only local state, which means that ExecReScan's usual habits of delaying or eliminating child rescan calls are safe again. As with the preceding commit 7df2c1f8d, it doesn't seem to be necessary to make these changes in 9.6, which is a good thing because the FDW and CustomScan APIs are impacted.

* Force rescanning of parallel-aware scan nodes below a Gather[Merge].Tom Lane2017-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ExecReScan machinery contains various optimizations for postponing or skipping rescans of plan subtrees; for example a HashAgg node may conclude that it can re-use the table it built before, instead of re-reading its input subtree. But that is wrong if the input contains a parallel-aware table scan node, since the portion of the table scanned by the leader process is likely to vary from one rescan to the next. This explains the timing-dependent buildfarm failures we saw after commit a2b70c89c. The established mechanism for showing that a plan node's output is potentially variable is to mark it as depending on some runtime Param. Hence, to fix this, invent a dummy Param (one that has a PARAM_EXEC parameter number, but carries no actual value) associated with each Gather or GatherMerge node, mark parallel-aware nodes below that node as dependent on that Param, and arrange for ExecReScanGather[Merge] to flag that Param as changed whenever the Gather[Merge] node is rescanned. This solution breaks an undocumented assumption made by the parallel executor logic, namely that all rescans of nodes below a Gather[Merge] will happen synchronously during the ReScan of the top node itself. But that's fundamentally contrary to the design of the ExecReScan code, and so was doomed to fail someday anyway (even if you want to argue that the bug being fixed here wasn't a failure of that assumption). A follow-on patch will address that issue. In the meantime, the worst that's expected to happen is that given very bad timing luck, the leader might have to do all the work during a rescan, because workers think they have nothing to do, if they are able to start up before the eventual ReScan of the leader's parallel-aware table scan node has reset the shared scan state. Although this problem exists in 9.6, there does not seem to be any way for it to manifest there. Without GatherMerge, it seems that a plan tree that has a rescan-short-circuiting node below Gather will always also have one above it that will short-circuit in the same cases, preventing the Gather from being rescanned. Hence we won't take the risk of back-patching this change into 9.6. But v10 needs it. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAA4eK1JkByysFJNh9M349u_nNjqETuEnY_y1VUc_kJiU0bxtaQ@mail.gmail.com

* Move ExecProcNode from dispatch to function pointer based model.Andres Freund2017-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows us to add stack-depth checks the first time an executor node is called, and skip that overhead on following calls. Additionally it yields a nice speedup. While it'd probably have been a good idea to have that check all along, it has become more important after the new expression evaluation framework in b8d7f053c5c2bf2a7e - there's no stack depth check in common paths anymore now. We previously relied on ExecEvalExpr() being executed somewhere. We should move towards that model for further routines, but as this is required for v10, it seems better to only do the necessary (which already is quite large).

| | | | | | | | Given this code's general eagerness to use subexpressions' output variables as temporary workspace, it's not exactly clear that it is safe for FieldStore to tell a newval subexpression that it can write into the same variable that is being supplied as a potential input.

* Code review for NextValueExpr expression node type.Tom Lane2017-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add missing infrastructure for this node type, notably in ruleutils.c where its lack could demonstrably cause EXPLAIN to fail. Add outfuncs/readfuncs support. (outfuncs support is useful today for debugging purposes. The readfuncs support may never be needed, since at present it would only matter for parallel query and NextValueExpr should never appear in a parallelizable query; but it seems like a bad idea to have a primnode type that isn't fully supported here.) Teach planner infrastructure that NextValueExpr is a volatile, parallel-unsafe, non-leaky expression node with cost cpu_operator_cost. Given its limited scope of usage, there *might* be no live bug today from the lack of that knowledge, but it's certainly going to bite us on the rear someday. Teach pg_stat_statements about the new node type, too. While at it, also teach cost_qual_eval() that MinMaxExpr, SQLValueFunction, XmlExpr, and CoerceToDomain should be charged as cpu_operator_cost. Failing to do this for SQLValueFunction was an oversight in my commit 0bb51aa96. The others are longer-standing oversights, but no time like the present to fix them. (In principle, CoerceToDomain could have cost much higher than this, but it doesn't presently seem worth trying to examine the domain's constraints here.) Modify execExprInterp.c to execute NextValueExpr as an out-of-line function; it seems quite unlikely to me that it's worth insisting that it be inlined in all expression eval methods. Besides, providing the out-of-line function doesn't stop anyone from inlining if they want to. Adjust some places where NextValueExpr support had been inserted with the aid of a dartboard rather than keeping it in the same order as elsewhere.

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

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

* Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

* Disallow set-returning functions inside CASE or COALESCE.Tom Lane2017-06-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we reimplemented SRFs in commit 69f4b9c85, our initial choice was to allow the behavior to vary from historical practice in cases where a SRF call appeared within a conditional-execution construct (currently, only CASE or COALESCE). But that was controversial to begin with, and subsequent discussion has resulted in a consensus that it's better to throw an error instead of executing the query differently from before, so long as we can provide a reasonably clear error message and a way to rewrite the query. Hence, add a parser mechanism to allow detection of such cases during parse analysis. The mechanism just requires storing, in the ParseState, a pointer to the set-returning FuncExpr or OpExpr most recently emitted by parse analysis. Then the parsing functions for CASE and COALESCE can detect the presence of a SRF in their arguments by noting whether this pointer changes while analyzing their arguments. Furthermore, if it does, it provides a suitable error cursor location for the complaint. (This means that if there's more than one SRF in the arguments, the error will point at the last one to be analyzed not the first. While connoisseurs of parsing behavior might find that odd, it's unlikely the average user would ever notice.) While at it, we can also provide more specific error messages than before about some pre-existing restrictions, such as no-SRFs-within-aggregates. Also, reject at parse time cases where a NULLIF or IS DISTINCT FROM construct would need to return a set. We've never supported that, but the restriction is depended on in more subtle ways now, so it seems wise to detect it at the start. Also, provide some documentation about how to rewrite a SRF-within-CASE query using a custom wrapper SRF. It turns out that the information_schema.user_mapping_options view contained an instance of exactly the behavior we're now forbidding; but rewriting it makes it more clear and safer too. initdb forced because of user_mapping_options change.

* Fix confusion about number of subplans in partitioned INSERT setup.Tom Lane2017-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | ExecInitModifyTable() thought there was a plan per partition, but no, there's only one. The problem had escaped detection so far because there would only be visible misbehavior if there were a SubPlan (not an InitPlan) in the quals being duplicated for each partition. However, valgrind detected a bogus memory access in test cases added by commit 4f7a95be2, and investigation of that led to discovery of the bug. The additional test case added here crashes without the patch. Patch by Amit Langote, test case by me. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/10974.1497227727@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Prevent BEFORE triggers from violating partitioning constraints.Robert Haas2017-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since tuple-routing implicitly checks the partitioning constraints at least for the levels of the partitioning hierarchy it traverses, there's normally no need to revalidate the partitioning constraint after performing tuple routing. However, if there's a BEFORE trigger on the target partition, it could modify the tuple, causing the partitioning constraint to be violated. Catch that case. Also, instead of checking the root table's partition constraint after tuple-routing, check it beforehand. Otherwise, the rules for when the partitioning constraint gets checked get too complicated, because you sometimes have to check part of the constraint but not all of it. This effectively reverts commit 39162b2030fb0a35a6bb28dc636b5a71b8df8d1c in favor of a different approach altogether. Report by me. Initial debugging by Jeevan Ladhe.

* Don't be so trusting that shm_toc_lookup() will always succeed.Tom Lane2017-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Given the possibility of race conditions and so on, it seems entirely unsafe to just assume that shm_toc_lookup() always finds the key it's looking for --- but that was exactly what all but one call site were doing. To fix, add a "bool noError" argument, similarly to what we have in many other functions, and throw an error on an unexpected lookup failure. Remove now-redundant Asserts that a rather random subset of call sites had. I doubt this will throw any light on buildfarm member lorikeet's recent failures, because if an unnoticed lookup failure were involved, you'd kind of expect a null-pointer-dereference crash rather than the observed symptom. But you never know ... and this is better coding practice even if it never catches anything. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/9697.1496675981@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Check relkind of tables in CREATE/ALTER SUBSCRIPTIONPeter Eisentraut2017-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | We used to only check for a supported relkind on the subscriber during replication, which is needed to ensure that the setup is valid and we don't crash. But it's also useful to tell the user immediately when CREATE or ALTER SUBSCRIPTION is executed that the relation being added to the subscription is not of a supported relkind.

* Preventive maintenance in advance of pgindent run.Tom Lane2017-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | Reformat various places in which pgindent will make a mess, and fix a few small violations of coding style that I happened to notice while perusing the diffs from a pgindent dry run. There is one actual bug fix here: the need-to-enlarge-the-buffer code path in icu_convert_case was obviously broken. Perhaps it's unreachable in our usage? Or maybe this is just sadly undertested.

* Redesign get_attstatsslot()/free_attstatsslot() for more safety and speed.Tom Lane2017-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mess cleaned up in commit da0759600 is clear evidence that it's a bug hazard to expect the caller of get_attstatsslot()/free_attstatsslot() to provide the correct type OID for the array elements in the slot. Moreover, we weren't even getting any performance benefit from that, since get_attstatsslot() was extracting the real type OID from the array anyway. So we ought to get rid of that requirement; indeed, it would make more sense for get_attstatsslot() to pass back the type OID it found, in case the caller isn't sure what to expect, which is likely in binary- compatible-operator cases. Another problem with the current implementation is that if the stats array element type is pass-by-reference, we incur a palloc/memcpy/pfree cycle for each element. That seemed acceptable when the code was written because we were targeting O(10) array sizes --- but these days, stats arrays are almost always bigger than that, sometimes much bigger. We can save a significant number of cycles by doing one palloc/memcpy/pfree of the whole array. Indeed, in the now-probably-common case where the array is toasted, that happens anyway so this method is basically free. (Note: although the catcache code will inline any out-of-line toasted values, it doesn't decompress them. At the other end of the size range, it doesn't expand short-header datums either. In either case, DatumGetArrayTypeP would have to make a copy. We do end up using an extra array copy step if the element type is pass-by-value and the array length is neither small enough for a short header nor large enough to have suffered compression. But that seems like a very acceptable price for winning in pass-by-ref cases.) Hence, redesign to take these insights into account. While at it, convert to an API in which we fill a struct rather than passing a bunch of pointers to individual output arguments. That will make it less painful if we ever want further expansion of what get_attstatsslot can pass back. It's certainly arguable that this is new development and not something to push post-feature-freeze. However, I view it as primarily bug-proofing and therefore something that's better to have sooner not later. Since we aren't quite at beta phase yet, let's put it in.

| | | | | | | | | | | Even though no actual tuples are ever inserted into a partitioned table (the actual tuples are in the partitions, not the partitioned table itself), we still need to have a ResultRelInfo for the partitioned table, or per-statement triggers won't get fired.

* Provide an error cursor for "can't call an SRF here" errors.Tom Lane2017-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since it appears that v10 is going to move the goalposts by some amount in terms of where you can and can't invoke set-returning functions, arrange for the executor's "set-valued function called in context that cannot accept a set" errors to include a syntax position if possible, pointing to the specific SRF that can't be called where it's located. The main bit of infrastructure needed for this is to make the query source text accessible in the executor; but it turns out that commit 4c728f382 already did that. We just need a new function executor_errposition() modeled on parser_errposition(), and we're ready to rock. While experimenting with this, I noted that the error position wasn't properly reported if it occurred in a plpgsql FOR-over-query loop, which turned out to be because SPI_cursor_open_internal wasn't providing an error context callback during PortalStart. Fix that. There's a whole lot more that could be done with this infrastructure now that it's there, but this is not the right time in the development cycle for that sort of work. Hence, resist the temptation to plaster executor_errposition() calls everywhere ... for the moment. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5263.1492471571@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Avoid passing function pointers across process boundaries.Tom Lane2017-04-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We'd already recognized that we can't pass function pointers across process boundaries for functions in loadable modules, since a shared library could get loaded at different addresses in different processes. But actually the practice doesn't work for functions in the core backend either, if we're using EXEC_BACKEND. This is the cause of recent failures on buildfarm member culicidae. Switch to passing a string function name in all cases. Something like this needs to be back-patched into 9.6, but let's see if the buildfarm likes it first.
