* Pre-beta mechanical code beautification.Tom Lane2023-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Run pgindent, pgperltidy, and reformat-dat-files. This set of diffs is a bit larger than typical. We've updated to pg_bsd_indent 2.1.2, which properly indents variable declarations that have multi-line initialization expressions (the continuation lines are now indented one tab stop). We've also updated to perltidy version 20230309 and changed some of its settings, which reduces its desire to add whitespace to lines to make assignments etc. line up. Going forward, that should make for fewer random-seeming changes to existing code. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20230428092545.qfb3y5wcu4cm75ur@alvherre.pgsql

* Clean up some inconsistencies with GUC declarationsMichael Paquier2022-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is similar to 7d25958, and this commit takes care of all the remaining inconsistencies between the initial value used in the C variable associated to a GUC and its default value stored in the GUC tables (as of pg_settings.boot_val). Some of the initial values of the GUCs updated rely on a compile-time default. These are refactored so as the GUC table and its C declaration use the same values. This makes everything consistent with other places, backend_flush_after, bgwriter_flush_after, port, checkpoint_flush_after doing so already, for example. Extracted from a larger patch by Peter Smith. The spots updated in the modules are from me.

* Make dsm_impl_posix_resize more future-proof.Thomas Munro2022-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 4518c798 blocks signals for a short region of code, but it assumed that whatever called it had the signal mask set to UnBlockSig on entry. That may be true today (or may even not be, in extensions in the wild), but it would be better not to make that assumption. We should save-and-restore the caller's signal mask. The PG_SETMASK() portability macro couldn't be used for that, which is why it wasn't done before. But... considering that commit a65e0864 established back in 9.6 that supported POSIX systems have sigprocmask(), and that this is POSIX-only code, there is no reason not to use standard sigprocmask() directly to achieve that.

* Remove redundant ftruncate() for POSIX DSM memory.Thomas Munro2022-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In early releases of the DSM infrastructure, it was possible to resize segments. That was removed in release 12 by commit 3c60d0fa. Now the ftruncate() + posix_fallocate() sequence during DSM segment creation has a redundant step: we're always extending from zero to the desired size, so we might as well just call posix_fallocate(). Let's also include the remaining ftruncate() call (non-Linux POSIX systems) in the wait event reporting, for good measure.

* Block signals while allocating DSM memory.Thomas Munro2022-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On Linux, we call posix_fallocate() on shm_open()'d memory to avoid later potential SIGBUS (see commit 899bd785). Based on field reports of systems stuck in an EINTR retry loop there, there, we made it possible to break out of that loop via slightly odd coding where the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() call was somewhat removed from the loop (see commit 422952ee). On further reflection, that was not a great choice for at least two reasons: 1. If interrupts were held, the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() would do nothing and the EINTR error would be surfaced to the user. 2. If EINTR was reported but neither QueryCancelPending nor ProcDiePending was set, then we'd dutifully retry, but with a bit more understanding of how posix_fallocate() works, it's now clear that you can get into a loop that never terminates. posix_fallocate() is not a function that can do some of the job and tell you about progress if it's interrupted, it has to undo what it's done so far and report EINTR, and if signals keep arriving faster than it can complete (cf recovery conflict signals), you're stuck. Therefore, for now, we'll simply block most signals to guarantee progress. SIGQUIT is not blocked (see InitPostmasterChild()), because its expected handler doesn't return, and unblockable signals like SIGCONT are not expected to arrive at a high rate. For good measure, we'll include the ftruncate() call in the blocked region, and add a retry loop. Back-patch to all supported releases.

* Harden dsm_impl.c against unexpected EEXIST.Thomas Munro2022-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we trusted the OS not to report EEXIST unless we'd passed in IPC_CREAT | IPC_EXCL or O_CREAT | O_EXCL, as appropriate. Solaris's shm_open() can in fact do that, causing us to crash because we didn't ereport and then we blithely assumed the mapping was successful. Let's treat EEXIST just like any other error, unless we're actually trying to create a new segment. This applies to shm_open(), where this behavior has been seen, and also to the equivalent operations for our sysv and mmap modes just on principle. Based on the underlying reason for the error, namely contention on a lock file managed by Solaris librt for each distinct name, this problem is only likely to happen on 15 and later, because the new shared memory stats system produces shm_open() calls for the same path from potentially large numbers of backends concurrently during authentication. Earlier releases only shared memory segments between a small number of parallel workers under one Gather node. You could probably hit it if you tried hard enough though, and we should have been more defensive in the first place. Therefore, back-patch to all supported releases. Per build farm animal margay. This isn't the end of the story, though, it just changes random crashes into random "File exists" errors; more work needed for a green build farm.

* Preallocate some DSM space at startup.Thomas Munro2020-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create an optional region in the main shared memory segment that can be used to acquire and release "fast" DSM segments, and can benefit from huge pages allocated at cluster startup time, if configured. Fall back to the existing mechanisms when that space is full. The size is controlled by a new GUC min_dynamic_shared_memory, defaulting to 0. Main region DSM segments initially contain whatever garbage the memory held last time they were used, rather than zeroes. That change revealed that DSA areas failed to initialize themselves correctly in memory that wasn't zeroed first, so fix that problem.

* Go back to returning int from ereport auxiliary functions.Tom Lane2020-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts the parts of commit 17a28b03645e27d73bf69a95d7569b61e58f06eb that changed ereport's auxiliary functions from returning dummy integer values to returning void. It turns out that a minority of compilers complain (not entirely unreasonably) about constructs such as (condition) ? errdetail(...) : 0 if errdetail() returns void rather than int. We could update those call sites to say "(void) 0" perhaps, but the expectation for this patch set was that ereport callers would not have to change anything. And this aspect of the patch set was already the most invasive and least compelling part of it, so let's just drop it. Per buildfarm.

* Improve the internal implementation of ereport().Tom Lane2020-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change all the auxiliary error-reporting routines to return void, now that we no longer need to pretend they are passing something useful to errfinish(). While this probably doesn't save anything significant at the machine-code level, it allows detection of some additional types of mistakes. Pass the error location details (__FILE__, __LINE__, PG_FUNCNAME_MACRO) to errfinish not errstart. This shaves a few cycles off the case where errstart decides we're not going to emit anything. Re-implement elog() as a trivial wrapper around ereport(), removing the separate support infrastructure it used to have. Aside from getting rid of some now-surplus code, this means that elog() now really does have exactly the same semantics as ereport(), in particular that it can skip evaluation work if the message is not to be emitted.

* Account explicitly for long-lived FDs that are allocated outside fd.c.Tom Lane2020-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The comments in fd.c have long claimed that all file allocations should go through that module, but in reality that's not always practical. fd.c doesn't supply APIs for invoking some FD-producing syscalls like pipe() or epoll_create(); and the APIs it does supply for non-virtual FDs are mostly insistent on releasing those FDs at transaction end; and in some cases the actual open() call is in code that can't be made to use fd.c, such as libpq. This has led to a situation where, in a modern server, there are likely to be seven or so long-lived FDs per backend process that are not known to fd.c. Since NUM_RESERVED_FDS is only 10, that meant we had *very* few spare FDs if max_files_per_process is >= the system ulimit and fd.c had opened all the files it thought it safely could. The contrib/postgres_fdw regression test, in particular, could easily be made to fall over by running it under a restrictive ulimit. To improve matters, invent functions Acquire/Reserve/ReleaseExternalFD that allow outside callers to tell fd.c that they have or want to allocate a FD that's not directly managed by fd.c. Add calls to track all the fixed FDs in a standard backend session, so that we are honestly guaranteeing that NUM_RESERVED_FDS FDs remain unused below the EMFILE limit in a backend's idle state. The coding rules for these functions say that there's no need to call them in code that just allocates one FD over a fairly short interval; we can dip into NUM_RESERVED_FDS for such cases. That means that there aren't all that many places where we need to worry. But postgres_fdw and dblink must use this facility to account for long-lived FDs consumed by libpq connections. There may be other places where it's worth doing such accounting, too, but this seems like enough to solve the immediate problem. Internally to fd.c, "external" FDs are limited to max_safe_fds/3 FDs. (Callers can choose to ignore this limit, but of course it's unwise to do so except for fixed file allocations.) I also reduced the limit on "allocated" files to max_safe_fds/3 FDs (it had been max_safe_fds/2). Conceivably a smarter rule could be used here --- but in practice, on reasonable systems, max_safe_fds should be large enough that this isn't much of an issue, so KISS for now. To avoid possible regression in the number of external or allocated files that can be opened, increase FD_MINFREE and the lower limit on max_files_per_process a little bit; we now insist that the effective "ulimit -n" be at least 64. This seems like pretty clearly a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field complaints, I'll refrain from risking a back-patch. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/E1izCmM-0005pV-Co@gemulon.postgresql.org

* Tighten use of OpenTransientFile and CloseTransientFileMichael Paquier2019-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes two sets of issues related to the use of transient files in the backend: 1) OpenTransientFile() has been used in some code paths with read-write flags while read-only is sufficient, so switch those calls to be read-only where necessary. These have been reported by Joe Conway. 2) When opening transient files, it is up to the caller to close the file descriptors opened. In error code paths, CloseTransientFile() gets called to clean up things before issuing an error. However in normal exit paths, a lot of callers of CloseTransientFile() never actually reported errors, which could leave a file descriptor open without knowing about it. This is an issue I complained about a couple of times, but never had the courage to write and submit a patch, so here we go. Note that one frontend code path is impacted by this commit so as an error is issued when fetching control file data, making backend and frontend to be treated consistently.

* Avoid SIGBUS on Linux when a DSM memory request overruns tmpfs.Tom Lane2017-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On Linux, shared memory segments created with shm_open() are backed by swap files created in tmpfs. If the swap file needs to be extended, but there's no tmpfs space left, you get a very unfriendly SIGBUS trap. To avoid this, force allocation of the full request size when we create the segment. This adds a few cycles, but none that we wouldn't expend later anyway, assuming the request isn't hugely bigger than the actual need. Make this code #ifdef __linux__, because (a) there's not currently a reason to think the same problem exists on other platforms, and (b) applying posix_fallocate() to an FD created by shm_open() isn't very portable anyway.

* Refactor new file permission handlingPeter Eisentraut2017-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The file handling functions from fd.c were called with a diverse mix of notations for the file permissions when they were opening new files. Almost all files created by the server should have the same permissions set. So change the API so that e.g. OpenTransientFile() automatically uses the standard permissions set, and OpenTransientFilePerm() is a new function that takes an explicit permissions set for the few cases where it is needed. This also saves an unnecessary argument for call sites that are just opening an existing file. While we're reviewing these APIs, get rid of the FileName typedef and use the standard const char * for the file name and mode_t for the file mode. This makes these functions match other file handling functions and removes an unnecessary layer of mysteriousness. We can also get rid of a few casts that way.

* 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.

* Create and use wait events for read, write, and fsync operations.Robert Haas2017-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previous commits, notably 53be0b1add7064ca5db3cd884302dfc3268d884e and 6f3bd98ebfc008cbd676da777bb0b2376c4c4bfa, made it possible to see from pg_stat_activity when a backend was stuck waiting for another backend, but it's also fairly common for a backend to be stuck waiting for an I/O. Add wait events for those operations, too. Rushabh Lathia, with further hacking by me. Reviewed and tested by Michael Paquier, Amit Kapila, Rajkumar Raghuwanshi, and Rahila Syed.

* Remove useless duplicate inclusions of system header files.Tom Lane2017-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | c.h #includes a number of core libc header files, such as <stdio.h>. There's no point in re-including these after having read postgres.h, postgres_fe.h, or c.h; so remove code that did so. While at it, also fix some places that were ignoring our standard pattern of "include postgres[_fe].h, then system header files, then other Postgres header files". While there's not any great magic in doing it that way rather than system headers last, it's silly to have just a few files deviating from the general pattern. (But I didn't attempt to enforce this globally, only in files I was touching anyway.) I'd be the first to say that this is mostly compulsive neatnik-ism, but over time it might save enough compile cycles to be useful.

* Don't trust CreateFileMapping() to clear the error code on success.Tom Lane2016-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We must test GetLastError() even when CreateFileMapping() returns a non-null handle. If that value were left over from some previous system call, we might be fooled into thinking the segment already existed. Experimentation on Windows 7 suggests that CreateFileMapping() clears the error code on success, but it is not documented to do so, so let's not rely on that happening in all Windows releases.

* Retry DSM control segment creation if Windows indicates access denied.Robert Haas2016-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Otherwise, attempts to run multiple postmasters running on the same machine may fail, because Windows sometimes returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED rather than ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS when there is an existing segment. Hitting this bug is much more likely because of another defect not fixed by this patch, namely that dsm_postmaster_startup() uses random() which returns the same value every time. But that's not a reason not to fix this. Kyotaro Horiguchi and Amit Kapila, reviewed by Michael Paquier Discussion: <CAA4eK1JyNdMeF-dgrpHozDecpDfsRZUtpCi+1AbtuEkfG3YooQ@mail.gmail.com>

* Extend dsm API with a new function dsm_unpin_segment.Robert Haas2016-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | If you have previously pinned a segment and decide that you don't actually want to keep it around until shutdown, this new API lets you remove the pin. This is pretty trivial except on Windows, where it requires closing the duplicate handle that was used to implement the pin. Thomas Munro and Amit Kapila, reviewed by Amit Kapila and by me.
