* Introduce pg_stat_checkpointerMichael Paquier2023-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically, the statistics of the checkpointer have been always part of pg_stat_bgwriter. This commit removes a few columns from pg_stat_bgwriter, and introduces pg_stat_checkpointer with equivalent, renamed columns (plus a new one for the reset timestamp): - checkpoints_timed -> num_timed - checkpoints_req -> num_requested - checkpoint_write_time -> write_time - checkpoint_sync_time -> sync_time - buffers_checkpoint -> buffers_written The fields of PgStat_CheckpointerStats and its SQL functions are renamed to match with the new field names, for consistency. Note that background writer and checkpointer have been split into two different processes in commits 806a2aee3791 and bf405ba8e460. The pgstat structures were already split, making this change straight-forward. Bump catalog version.

* Refactor some code related to transaction-level statistics for relationsMichael Paquier2023-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit refactors find_tabstat_entry() so as transaction counters for inserted, updated and deleted tuples are included in the result returned. If a shared entry is found for a relation, its result is now a copy of the PgStat_TableStatus entry retrieved from shared memory. This idea has been proposed by Andres Freund. While on it, the following SQL functions, used in system views, are refactored with macros, in the same spirit as 83a1a1b56645, reducing the amount of code: - pg_stat_get_xact_tuples_deleted() - pg_stat_get_xact_tuples_inserted() - pg_stat_get_xact_tuples_updated() There is now only one caller of find_tabstat_entry() in the tree.

* Remove buffers_backend and buffers_backend_fsync from pg_stat_checkpointerMichael Paquier2023-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two attributes related to checkpointer statistics are removed in this commit: - buffers_backend, that counts the number of buffers written directly by a backend. - buffers_backend_fsync, that counts the number of times a backend had to do fsync() by its own. These are actually not checkpointer properties but backend properties. Also, pg_stat_io provides a more accurate and equivalent report of these numbers, by tracking all the I/O stats related to backends, including writes and fsyncs, so storing them in pg_stat_checkpointer was redundant. Thanks also to Robert Haas and Amit Kapila for their input. Bump catalog version.

* Optimize various aggregate deserialization functions, take 2David Rowley2023-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | f0efa5aec added initReadOnlyStringInfo to allow a StringInfo to be initialized from an existing buffer and also relaxed the requirement that a StringInfo's buffer must be NUL terminated at data[len]. Now that we have that, there's no need for these aggregate deserial functions to use appendBinaryStringInfo() as that rather wastefully palloc'd a new buffer and memcpy'd in the bytea's buffer. Instead, we can just use the bytea's buffer and point the StringInfo directly to that using the new initializer function. In Amdahl's law, this speeds up the serial portion of parallel aggregates and makes sum(numeric), avg(numeric), var_pop(numeric), var_samp(numeric), variance(numeric), stddev_pop(numeric), stddev_samp(numeric), stddev(numeric), array_agg(anyarray), string_agg(text) and string_agg(bytea) scale better in parallel queries.

* Add trailing commas to enum definitionsPeter Eisentraut2023-10-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since C99, there can be a trailing comma after the last value in an enum definition. A lot of new code has been introducing this style on the fly. Some new patches are now taking an inconsistent approach to this. Some add the last comma on the fly if they add a new last value, some are trying to preserve the existing style in each place, some are even dropping the last comma if there was one. We could nudge this all in a consistent direction if we just add the trailing commas everywhere once. I omitted a few places where there was a fixed "last" value that will always stay last. I also skipped the header files of libpq and ecpg, in case people want to use those with older compilers. There were also a small number of cases where the enum type wasn't used anywhere (but the enum values were), which ended up confusing pgindent a bit, so I left those alone.

* Introduce the concept of read-only StringInfosDavid Rowley2023-10-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were various places in our codebase which conjured up a StringInfo by manually assigning the StringInfo fields and setting the data field to point to some existing buffer. There wasn't much consistency here as to what fields like maxlen got set to and in one location we didn't correctly ensure that the buffer was correctly NUL terminated at len bytes, as per what was documented as required in stringinfo.h Here we introduce 2 new functions to initialize StringInfos. One allows callers to initialize a StringInfo passing along a buffer that is already allocated by palloc. Here the StringInfo code uses this buffer directly rather than doing any memcpying into a new allocation. Having this as a function allows us to verify the buffer is correctly NUL terminated. StringInfos initialized this way can be appended to and reset just like any other normal StringInfo. The other new initialization function also accepts an existing buffer, but the given buffer does not need to be a pointer to a palloc'd chunk. This buffer could be a pointer pointing partway into some palloc'd chunk or may not even be palloc'd at all. StringInfos initialized this way are deemed as "read-only". This means that it's not possible to append to them or reset them. For the latter of the two new initialization functions mentioned above, we relax the requirement that the data buffer must be NUL terminated. Relaxing this requirement is convenient in a few places as it can save us from having to allocate an entire new buffer just to add the NUL terminator or save us from having to temporarily add a NUL only to have to put the original char back again later. Incompatibility note: Here we also forego adding the NUL in a few places where it does not seem to be required. These locations are passing the given StringInfo into a type's receive function. It does not seem like any of our built-in receive functions require this, but perhaps there's some UDT out there in the wild which does require this. It is likely worthy of a mention in the release notes that a UDT's receive function mustn't rely on the input StringInfo being NUL terminated.

* Migrate logical slots to the new node during an upgrade.Amit Kapila2023-10-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While reading information from the old cluster, a list of logical slots is fetched. At the later part of upgrading, pg_upgrade revisits the list and restores slots by executing pg_create_logical_replication_slot() on the new cluster. Migration of logical replication slots is only supported when the old cluster is version 17.0 or later. If the old node has invalid slots or slots with unconsumed WAL records, the pg_upgrade fails. These checks are needed to prevent data loss. The significant advantage of this commit is that it makes it easy to continue logical replication even after upgrading the publisher node. Previously, pg_upgrade allowed copying publications to a new node. With this patch, adjusting the connection string to the new publisher will cause the apply worker on the subscriber to connect to the new publisher automatically. This enables seamless continuation of logical replication, even after an upgrade.

* Dodge a compiler bug affecting timetz_zone/timetz_izone.Tom Lane2023-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use a modulo operator instead of implementing the same behavior with a loop. The loop solution is doubtless microscopically faster for the typical case of only wrapping into the very next day, but maybe not so much for large interval values. In any case, timetz is such a backwater that it's doubtful anybody would notice any performance change anyway. This avoids a compiler bug occurring in AIX's xlc, even in pretty late-model revisions. We did not have test coverage for the case where the initial result->time value is negative, so add that. For the moment, install this only in HEAD. My plan is to back-patch the test case, and then the code change assuming that buildfarm testing proves the bug occurs in the back branches. (That seems pretty likely, but let's find out for sure.) Per buildfarm results from commits 97957fdba and 2f0472030. Thanks to Michael Paquier for the idea to use a modulo operation to replace the faulty loop.

* Harden has_xxx_privilege() functions against concurrent object drops.Tom Lane2023-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The versions of these functions that accept object OIDs are supposed to return NULL, rather than failing, if the target object has been dropped. This makes it safe(r) to use them in queries that scan catalogs, since the functions will be applied to objects that are visible in the query's snapshot but might now be gone according to the catalog snapshot. In most cases we implemented this by doing a SearchSysCacheExists test and assuming that if that succeeds, we can safely invoke the appropriate aclchk.c function, which will immediately re-fetch the same syscache entry. It was argued that if the existence test succeeds then the followup fetch must succeed as well, for lack of any intervening AcceptInvalidationMessages call. Alexander Lakhin demonstrated that this is not so when CATCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE is enabled: the syscache entry will be forcibly dropped at the end of SearchSysCacheExists, and then it is possible for the catalog snapshot to get advanced while re-fetching the entry. Alexander's test case requires the operation to happen inside a parallel worker, but that seems incidental to the fundamental problem. What remains obscure is whether there is a way for this to happen in a non-debug build. Nonetheless, CATCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE is a very useful test methodology, so we'd better make the code safe for it. After some discussion we concluded that the most future-proof fix is to give up the assumption that checking SearchSysCacheExists can guarantee success of a later fetch. At best that assumption leads to fragile code --- for example, has_type_privilege appears broken for array types even if you believe the assumption holds. And it's not even particularly efficient. There had already been some work towards extending the aclchk.c APIs to include "is_missing" output flags, so this patch extends that work to cover all the aclchk.c functions that are used by the has_xxx_privilege() functions. (This allows getting rid of some ad-hoc decisions about not throwing errors in certain places in aclchk.c.) In passing, this fixes the has_sequence_privilege() functions to provide the same guarantees as their cousins: for some reason the SearchSysCacheExists tests never got added to those. There is more work to do to remove the unsafe coding pattern with SearchSysCacheExists in other places, but this is a pretty self-contained patch so I'll commit it separately. Per bug #18014 from Alexander Lakhin. Given the lack of hard evidence that there's a bug in non-debug builds, I'm content to fix this only in HEAD. (Perhaps we should clean up the has_sequence_privilege() oversight in the back branches, but in the absence of field complaints I'm not too excited about that either.)

* Optimize various aggregate deserialization functionsDavid Rowley2023-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The serialized representation of an internal aggregate state is a bytea value. In each deserial function, in order to "receive" the bytea value we appended it onto a short-lived StringInfoData using appendBinaryStringInfo. This was a little wasteful as it meant having to palloc memory, copy a (possibly long) series of bytes then later pfree that memory. Instead of going to this extra trouble, we can just fake up a StringInfoData and point the data directly at the bytea's payload. This should help increase the performance of internal aggregate deserialization.

* Improve JsonLexContext's freeabilityAlvaro Herrera2023-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the JSON code didn't have to worry too much about freeing JsonLexContext, because it was never too long-lived. With new features being added for SQL/JSON this is no longer the case. Add a routine that knows how to free this struct and apply that to a few places, to prevent this from becoming problematic. At the same time, we change the API of makeJsonLexContextCstringLen to make it receive a pointer to JsonLexContext for callers that want it to be stack-allocated; it can also be passed as NULL to get the original behavior of a palloc'ed one. This also causes an ABI break due to the addition of flags to JsonLexContext, so we can't easily backpatch it. AFAICS that's not much of a problem; apparently some leaks might exist in JSON usage of text-search, for example via json_to_tsvector, but I haven't seen any complaints about that.

* Fix datalen calculation in tsvectorrecv().Tom Lane2023-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After receiving position data for a lexeme, tsvectorrecv() advanced its "datalen" value by (npos+1)*sizeof(WordEntry) where the correct calculation is (npos+1)*sizeof(WordEntryPos). This accidentally failed to render the constructed tsvector invalid, but it did result in leaving some wasted space approximately equal to the space consumed by the position data. That could have several bad effects: * Disk space is wasted if the received tsvector is stored into a table as-is. * A legal tsvector could get rejected with "maximum total lexeme length exceeded" if the extra space pushes it over the MAXSTRPOS limit. * In edge cases, the finished tsvector could be assigned a length larger than the allocated size of its palloc chunk, conceivably leading to SIGSEGV when the tsvector gets copied somewhere else. The odds of a field failure of this sort seem low, though valgrind testing could probably have found this. While we're here, let's express the calculation as "sizeof(uint16) + npos * sizeof(WordEntryPos)" to avoid the type pun implicit in the "npos + 1" formulation. It's not wrong given that WordEntryPos had better be 2 bytes to avoid padding problems, but it seems clearer this way. Report and patch by Denis Erokhin. Back-patch to all supported versions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We now create contype='n' pg_constraint rows for not-null constraints. We propagate these constraints to other tables during operations such as adding inheritance relationships, creating and attaching partitions and creating tables LIKE other tables. We also spawn not-null constraints for inheritance child tables when their parents have primary keys. These related constraints mostly follow the well-known rules of conislocal and coninhcount that we have for CHECK constraints, with some adaptations: for example, as opposed to CHECK constraints, we don't match not-null ones by name when descending a hierarchy to alter it, instead matching by column name that they apply to. This means we don't require the constraint names to be identical across a hierarchy. For now, we omit them for system catalogs. Maybe this is worth reconsidering. We don't support NOT VALID nor DEFERRABLE clauses either; these can be added as separate features later (this patch is already large and complicated enough.) psql shows these constraints in \d+. pg_dump requires some ad-hoc hacks, particularly when dumping a primary key. We now create one "throwaway" not-null constraint for each column in the PK together with the CREATE TABLE command, and once the PK is created, all those throwaway constraints are removed. This avoids having to check each tuple for nullness when the dump restores the primary key creation. pg_upgrading from an older release requires a somewhat brittle procedure to create a constraint state that matches what would be created if the database were being created fresh in Postgres 17. I have tested all the scenarios I could think of, and it works correctly as far as I can tell, but I could have neglected weird cases. This patch has been very long in the making. The first patch was written by Bernd Helmle in 2010 to add a new pg_constraint.contype value ('n'), which I (Álvaro) then hijacked in 2011 and 2012, until that one was killed by the realization that we ought to use contype='c' instead: manufactured CHECK constraints. However, later SQL standard development, as well as nonobvious emergent properties of that design (mostly, failure to distinguish them from "normal" CHECK constraints as well as the performance implication of having to test the CHECK expression) led us to reconsider this choice, so now the current implementation uses contype='n' again. During Postgres 16 this had already been introduced by commit e056c557aef4, but there were some problems mainly with the pg_upgrade procedure that couldn't be fixed in reasonable time, so it was reverted. In 2016 Vitaly Burovoy also worked on this feature[1] but found no consensus for his proposed approach, which was claimed to be closer to the letter of the standard, requiring an additional pg_attribute column to track the OID of the not-null constraint for that column.

While we're here, update the header comments for these functions to mention that hex, octal and binary formats along with underscore separators are now supported.

* Unify JSON categorize type API and export for external useAmit Langote2023-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This essentially removes the JsonbTypeCategory enum and jsonb_categorize_type() and integrates any jsonb-specific logic that was in jsonb_categorize_type() into json_categorize_type(), now moved to jsonfuncs.c. The remaining JsonTypeCategory enum and json_categorize_type() cover the needs of the callers in both json.c and jsonb.c. json_categorize_type() has grown a new parameter named is_jsonb for callers to engage the jsonb-specific behavior of json_categorize_type(). One notable change in the now exported API of json_categorize_type() is that it now always returns *outfuncoid even though a caller may have no need currently to see one. This is in preparation of later commits to implement additional SQL/JSON functions.

* Improve error message for MaxAllocSize overrun in accumArrayResult.Tom Lane2023-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before, if you went past about 64M array elements in array_agg() and allied functions, you got a generic "invalid memory alloc request size" error. This patch replaces that with "array size exceeds the maximum allowed", which seems more user-friendly since it points you to needing to reduce the size of your array result. (This is the same error text you'd get from construct_md_array in the event of overrunning the maximum physical size for the finished array.) Per question from Shaozhong Shi. Since this hasn't come up often, I don't feel a need to back-patch. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CA+i5JwYtVS9z2E71PcNKAVPbOn4R2wuj-LqbJsYr_XOz73q7dQ@mail.gmail.com
* Don't expose Windows' mbstowcs_l() and wcstombs_l().Thomas Munro2023-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Windows has similar functions with leading underscores. Previously, we provided the rename via a macro in win32_port.h. In fact its functions are not always good replacements for the Unix functions, since they can't deal with UTF-8. They are only currently used by pg_locale.c, which is careful to redirect to other Windows routines for UTF-8. Given that portability hazard, it seem unlikely to be a good idea to encourage any other code to think of these functions as being available outside pg_locale.c. Any code that thinks it wants these functions probably wants our wchar2char() or char2wchar() routines instead, or it won't actually work on Windows in UTF-8 databases. Furthermore, some major libc implementations including glibc don't have them (they only have the standard variants without _l), so external code is very unlikely to require them to exist.

* All supported systems have locale_t.Thomas Munro2023-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | locale_t is defined by POSIX.1-2008 and SUSv4, and available on all targeted systems. For Windows, win32_port.h redirects to a partial implementation called _locale_t. We can now remove a lot of compile-time tests for HAVE_LOCALE_T, and associated comments and dead code branches that were needed for older computers. Since configure + MinGW builds didn't detect locale_t but now we assume that all systems have it, further inconsistencies among the 3 Windows build systems were revealed. With this commit, we no longer define HAVE_WCSTOMBS_L and HAVE_MBSTOWCS_L on any Windows build system, but we have logic to deal with that so that replacements are available where appropriate.

* Handle \v as a whitespace character in parsersMichael Paquier2023-07-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit comes as a continuation of the discussion that has led to d522b05, as \v was handled inconsistently when parsing array values or anything going through the parsers, and changing a parser behavior in stable branches is a scary thing to do. The parsing of array values now uses the more central scanner_isspace() and array_isspace() is removed. As pointing out by Peter Eisentraut, fix a confusing reference to horizontal space in the parsers with the term "horiz_space". \f was included in this set since 3cfdd8f from 2000, but it is not horizontal. "horiz_space" is renamed to "non_newline_space", to refer to all whitespace characters except newlines. The changes impact the parsers for the backend, psql, seg, cube, ecpg and replication commands. Note that JSON should not escape \v, as per RFC 7159, so these are not touched. Reviewed-by: Peter Eisentraut, Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/ZJKcjNwWHHvw9ksQ@paquier.xyz
* Generate automatically code and documentation related to wait eventsMichael Paquier2023-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The documentation and the code is generated automatically from a new file called wait_event_names.txt, formatted in sections dedicated to each wait event class (Timeout, Lock, IO, etc.) with three tab-separated fields: - C symbol in enums - Format in the system views - Description in the docs Using this approach has several advantages, as we have proved to be rather bad in maintaining this area of the tree across the years: - The order of each item in the documentation and the code, which should be alphabetical, has become incorrect multiple times, and the script generating the code and documentation has a few rules to enforce that, making the maintenance a no-brainer. - Some wait events were added to the code, but not documented, so this cannot be missed now. - The order of the tables for each wait event class is enforced in the documentation (the input .txt file does so as well for clarity, though this is not mandatory). - Less code, shaving 1.2k lines from the tree, with 1/3 of the savings coming from the code, the rest from the documentation. The wait event types "Lock" and "LWLock" still have their own code path for their code, hence only the documentation is created for them. These classes are listed with a special marker called WAIT_EVENT_DOCONLY in the input file. Adding a new wait event now requires only an update of wait_event_names.txt, with "Lock" and "LWLock" treated as exceptions. This commit has been tested with configure/Makefile, the CI and VPATH build. clean, distclean and maintainer-clean were working fine.
