* Fix a crash in logical replicationPeter Eisentraut2019-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bug was that determining which columns are part of the replica identity index using RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap() would run eval_const_expressions() on index expressions and predicates across all indexes of the table, which in turn might require a snapshot, but there wasn't one set, so it crashes. There were actually two separate bugs, one on the publisher and one on the subscriber. To trigger the bug, a table that is part of a publication or subscription needs to have an index with a predicate or expression that lends itself to constant expressions simplification. The fix is to avoid the constant expressions simplification in RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap(), so that it becomes safe to call in these contexts. The constant expressions simplification comes from the calls to RelationGetIndexExpressions()/RelationGetIndexPredicate() via BuildIndexInfo(). But RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap() calling BuildIndexInfo() is overkill. The latter just takes pg_index catalog information, packs it into the IndexInfo structure, which former then just unpacks again and throws away. We can just do this directly with less overhead and skip the troublesome calls to eval_const_expressions(). This also removes the awkward cross-dependency between relcache.c and index.c.

* Refactor planner's header files.Tom Lane2019-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a new header optimizer/optimizer.h, which exposes just the planner functions that can be used "at arm's length", without need to access Paths or the other planner-internal data structures defined in nodes/relation.h. This is intended to provide the whole planner API seen by most of the rest of the system; although FDWs still need to use additional stuff, and more thought is also needed about just what selfuncs.c should rely on. The main point of doing this now is to limit the amount of new #include baggage that will be needed by "planner support functions", which I expect to introduce later, and which will be in relevant datatype modules rather than anywhere near the planner. This commit just moves relevant declarations into optimizer.h from other header files (a couple of which go away because everything got moved), and adjusts #include lists to match. There's further cleanup that could be done if we want to decide that some stuff being exposed by optimizer.h doesn't belong in the planner at all, but I'll leave that for another day.

* Make some small planner API cleanups.Tom Lane2019-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move a few very simple node-creation and node-type-testing functions from the planner's clauses.c to nodes/makefuncs and nodes/nodeFuncs. There's nothing planner-specific about them, as evidenced by the number of other places that were using them. While at it, rename and_clause() etc to is_andclause() etc, to clarify that they are node-type-testing functions not node-creation functions. And use "static inline" implementations for the shortest ones. Also, modify flatten_join_alias_vars() and some subsidiary functions to take a Query not a PlannerInfo to define the join structure that Vars should be translated according to. They were only using the "parse" field of the PlannerInfo anyway, so this just requires removing one level of indirection. The advantage is that now parse_agg.c can use flatten_join_alias_vars() without the horrid kluge of creating an incomplete PlannerInfo, which will allow that file to be decoupled from relation.h in a subsequent patch.

* Flush relcache entries when their FKs are meddled withAlvaro Herrera2019-01-21

* Don't include heapam.h from others headers.Andres Freund2019-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | heapam.h previously was included in a number of widely used headers (e.g. execnodes.h, indirectly in executor.h, ...). That's problematic on its own, as heapam.h contains a lot of low-level details that don't need to be exposed that widely, but becomes more problematic with the upcoming introduction of pluggable table storage - it seems inappropriate for heapam.h to be included that widely afterwards. heapam.h was largely only included in other headers to get the HeapScanDesc typedef (which was defined in heapam.h, even though HeapScanDescData is defined in relscan.h). The better solution here seems to be to just use the underlying struct (forward declared where necessary). Similar for BulkInsertState. Another problem was that LockTupleMode was used in executor.h - parts of the file tried to cope without heapam.h, but due to the fact that it indirectly included it, several subsequent violations of that goal were not not noticed. We could just reuse the approach of declaring parameters as int, but it seems nicer to move LockTupleMode to lockoptions.h - that's not a perfect location, but also doesn't seem bad. As a number of files relied on implicitly included heapam.h, a significant number of files grew an explicit include. It's quite probably that a few external projects will need to do the same.

* Make collation-aware system catalog columns use "C" collation.Tom Lane2018-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now we allowed text columns in system catalogs to use collation "default", but that isn't really safe because it might mean something different in template0 than it means in a database cloned from template0. In particular, this could mean that cloned pg_statistic entries for such columns weren't entirely valid, possibly leading to bogus planner estimates, though (probably) not any outright failures. In the wake of commit 5e0928005, a better solution is available: if we label such columns with "C" collation, then their pg_statistic entries will also use that collation and hence will be valid independently of the database collation. This also provides a cleaner solution for indexes on such columns than the hack added by commit 0b28ea79c: the indexes will naturally inherit "C" collation and don't have to be forced to use text_pattern_ops. Also, with the planned improvement of type "name" to be collation-aware, this policy will apply cleanly to both text and name columns. Because of the pg_statistic angle, we should also apply this policy to the tables in information_schema. This patch does that by adjusting information_schema's textual domain types to specify "C" collation. That has the user-visible effect that order-sensitive comparisons to textual information_schema view columns will now use "C" collation by default. The SQL standard says that the collation of those view columns is implementation-defined, so I think this is legal per spec. At some point this might allow for translation of such comparisons into indexable conditions on the underlying "name" columns, although additional work will be needed before that can happen.

* Make pg_statistic and related code account more honestly for collations.Tom Lane2018-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we first put in collations support, we basically punted on teaching pg_statistic, ANALYZE, and the planner selectivity functions about that. They've just used DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID independently of the actual collation of the data. It's time to improve that, so: * Add columns to pg_statistic that record the specific collation associated with each statistics slot. * Teach ANALYZE to use the column's actual collation when comparing values for statistical purposes, and record this in the appropriate slot. (Note that type-specific typanalyze functions are now expected to fill stats->stacoll with the appropriate collation, too.) * Teach assorted selectivity functions to use the actual collation of the stats they are looking at, instead of just assuming it's DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID. This should give noticeably better results in selectivity estimates for columns with nondefault collations, at least for query clauses that use that same collation (which would be the default behavior in most cases). It's still true that comparisons with explicit COLLATE clauses different from the stored data's collation won't be well-estimated, but that's no worse than before. Also, this patch does make the first step towards doing better with that, which is that it's now theoretically possible to collect stats for a collation other than the column's own collation. Patch by me; thanks to Peter Eisentraut for review. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/14706.1544630227@sss.pgh.pa.us
* 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
* 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.

* Reduce unnecessary list construction in RelationBuildPartitionDesc.Robert Haas2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'partoids' list which was constructed by the previous version of this code was necessarily identical to 'inhoids'. There's no point to duplicating the list, so avoid that. Instead, construct the array representation directly from the original 'inhoids' list. Also, use an array rather than a list for 'boundspecs'. We know exactly how many items we need to store, so there's really no reason to use a list. Using an array instead reduces the number of memory allocations we perform.

* PANIC on fsync() failure.Thomas Munro2018-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some operating systems, it doesn't make sense to retry fsync(), because dirty data cached by the kernel may have been dropped on write-back failure. In that case the only remaining copy of the data is in the WAL. A subsequent fsync() could appear to succeed, but not have flushed the data. That means that a future checkpoint could apparently complete successfully but have lost data. Therefore, violently prevent any future checkpoint attempts by panicking on the first fsync() failure. Note that we already did the same for WAL data; this change extends that behavior to non-temporary data files. Provide a GUC data_sync_retry to control this new behavior, for users of operating systems that don't eject dirty data, and possibly forensic/testing uses. If it is set to on and the write-back error was transient, a later checkpoint might genuinely succeed (on a system that does not throw away buffers on failure); if the error is permanent, later checkpoints will continue to fail. The GUC defaults to off, meaning that we panic. Back-patch to all supported releases. There is still a narrow window for error-loss on some operating systems: if the file is closed and later reopened and a write-back error occurs in the intervening time, but the inode has the bad luck to be evicted due to memory pressure before we reopen, we could miss the error. A later patch will address that with a scheme for keeping files with dirty data open at all times, but we judge that to be too complicated to back-patch.

* 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.

* Disable recheck_on_update optimization to avoid crashes.Tom Lane2018-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code added by commit c203d6cf8 causes a crash in at least one case, where a potentially-optimizable expression index has a storage type different from the input data type. A cursory code review turned up numerous other problems that seem impractical to fix on short notice. Andres argued for revert of that patch some time ago, and if additional senior committers had been paying attention, that's likely what would have happened, but we were not :-( At this point we can't just revert, at least not in v11, because that would mean an ABI break for code touching relcache entries. And we should not remove the (also buggy) support for the recheck_on_update index reloption, since it might already be used in some databases in the field. So this patch just does the as-little-invasive-as-possible measure of disabling the feature as though recheck_on_update were forced off for all indexes. I also removed the related regression tests (which would otherwise fail) and the user-facing documentation of the reloption. We should undertake a more thorough code cleanup if the patch can't be fixed, but not under the extreme time pressure of being already overdue for 11.1 release.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Change rewriter/planner/executor/plancache to depend on RTE rellockmode.Tom Lane2018-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of recomputing the required lock levels in all these places, just use what commit fdba460a2 made the parser store in the RTE fields. This already simplifies the code measurably in these places, and follow-on changes will remove a bunch of no-longer-needed infrastructure. In a few cases, this change causes us to acquire a higher lock level than we did before. This is OK primarily because said higher lock level should've been acquired already at query parse time; thus, we're saving a useless extra trip through the shared lock manager to acquire a lesser lock alongside the original lock. The only known exception to this is that re-execution of a previously planned SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE query, for a table that uses ROW_MARK_REFERENCE or ROW_MARK_COPY methods, might have gotten only AccessShareLock before. Now it will get RowShareLock like the first execution did, which seems fine. While there's more to do, push it in this state anyway, to let the buildfarm help verify that nothing bad happened.

* Create an RTE field to record the query's lock mode for each relation.Tom Lane2018-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add RangeTblEntry.rellockmode, which records the appropriate lock mode for each RTE_RELATION rangetable entry (either AccessShareLock, RowShareLock, or RowExclusiveLock depending on the RTE's role in the query). This patch creates the field and makes all creators of RTE nodes fill it in reasonably, but for the moment nothing much is done with it. The plan is to replace assorted post-parser logic that re-determines the right lockmode to use with simple uses of rte->rellockmode. For now, just add Asserts in each of those places that the rellockmode matches what they are computing today. (In some cases the match isn't perfect, so the Asserts are weaker than you might expect; but this seems OK, as per discussion.) This passes check-world for me, but it seems worth pushing in this state to see if the buildfarm finds any problems in cases I failed to test. catversion bump due to change of stored rules.

* Fix assorted bugs in pg_get_partition_constraintdef().Tom Lane2018-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It failed if passed a nonexistent relation OID, or one that was a non-heap relation, because of blindly applying heap_open to a user-supplied OID. This is not OK behavior for a SQL-exposed function; we have a project policy that we should return NULL in such cases. Moreover, since pg_get_partition_constraintdef ought now to work on indexes, restricting it to heaps is flat wrong anyway. The underlying function generate_partition_qual() wasn't on board with indexes having partition quals either, nor for that matter with rels having relispartition set but yet null relpartbound. (One wonders whether the person who wrote the function comment blocks claiming that these functions allow a missing relpartbound had ever tested it.) Fix by testing relispartition before opening the rel, and by using relation_open not heap_open. (If any other relkinds ever grow the ability to have relispartition set, the code will work with them automatically.) Also, don't reject null relpartbound in generate_partition_qual. Back-patch to v11, and all but the null-relpartbound change to v10. (It's not really necessary to change generate_partition_qual at all in v10, but I thought s/heap_open/relation_open/ would be a good idea anyway just to keep the code in sync with later branches.)

* Simplify partitioned table creation vs. relcacheAlvaro Herrera2018-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the original code, we were storing the pg_inherits row for a partitioned table too early: enough that we had a hack for relcache to avoid falling flat on its face while reading such a partial entry. If we finish the pg_class creation first and *then* store the pg_inherits entry, we don't need that hack. Also recognize that pg_class.relpartbound is not marked NOT NULL and therefore it's entirely possible to read null values, so having only Assert() protection isn't enough. Change those to if/elog tests instead. This qualifies as a robustness fix, so backpatch to pg11. In passing, remove one access that wasn't actually needed, and reword one message to be like all the others that check for the same thing.

* Fully enforce uniqueness of constraint names.Tom Lane2018-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's been true for a long time that we expect names of table and domain constraints to be unique among the constraints of that table or domain. However, the enforcement of that has been pretty haphazard, and it missed some corner cases such as creating a CHECK constraint and then an index constraint of the same name (as per recent report from André Hänsel). Also, due to the lack of an actual unique index enforcing this, duplicates could be created through race conditions. Moreover, the code that searches pg_constraint has been quite inconsistent about how to handle duplicate names if one did occur: some places checked and threw errors if there was more than one match, while others just processed the first match they came to. To fix, create a unique index on (conrelid, contypid, conname). Since either conrelid or contypid is zero, this will separately enforce uniqueness of constraint names among constraints of any one table and any one domain. (If we ever implement SQL assertions, and put them into this catalog, more thought might be needed. But it'd be at least as reasonable to put them into a new catalog; having overloaded this one catalog with two kinds of constraints was a mistake already IMO.) This index can replace the existing non-unique index on conrelid, though we need to keep the one on contypid for query performance reasons. Having done that, we can simplify the logic in various places that either coped with duplicates or neglected to, as well as potentially improve lookup performance when searching for a constraint by name. Also, as per our usual practice, install a preliminary check so that you get something more friendly than a unique-index violation report in the case complained of by André. And teach ChooseIndexName to avoid choosing autogenerated names that would draw such a failure. While it's not possible to make such a change in the back branches, it doesn't seem quite too late to put this into v11, so do so.

* Handle parallel index builds on mapped relations.Peter Geoghegan2018-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9da0cc35284, which introduced parallel CREATE INDEX, failed to propagate relmapper.c backend local cache state to parallel worker processes. This could result in parallel index builds against mapped catalog relations where the leader process (participating as a worker) scans the new, pristine relfilenode, while worker processes scan the obsolescent relfilenode. When this happened, the final index structure was typically not consistent with the owning table's structure. The final index structure could contain entries formed from both heap relfilenodes. Only rebuilds on mapped catalog relations that occur as part of a VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER could become corrupt in practice, since their mapped relation relfilenode swap is what allows the inconsistency to arise. On master, fix the problem by propagating the required relmapper.c backend state as part of standard parallel initialization (Cf. commit 29d58fd3). On v11, simply disallow builds against mapped catalog relations by deeming them parallel unsafe.

* Rework error messages around file handlingMichael Paquier2018-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some error messages related to file handling are using the code path context to define their state. For example, 2PC-related errors are referring to "two-phase status files", or "relation mapping file" is used for catalog-to-filenode mapping, however those prove to be difficult to translate, and are not more helpful than just referring to the path of the file being worked on. So simplify all those error messages by just referring to files with their path used. In some cases, like the manipulation of WAL segments, the context is actually helpful so those are kept. Calls to the system function read() have also been rather inconsistent with their error handling sometimes not reporting the number of bytes read, and some other code paths trying to use an errno which has not been set. The in-core functions are using a more consistent pattern with this patch, which checks for both errno if set or if an inconsistent read is happening. So as to care about pluralization when reading an unexpected number of byte(s), "could not read: read %d of %zu" is used as error message, with %d field being the output result of read() and %zu the expected size. This simplifies the work of translators with less variations of the same message. Author: Michael Paquier Reviewed-by: Álvaro Herrera Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20180520000522.GB1603@paquier.xyz

* Fix up run-time partition pruning's use of relcache's partition data.Tom Lane2018-06-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding saved pointers into the partitioned table's relcache entry, but then closed the relcache entry, causing those pointers to nominally become dangling. Actual trouble would be seen in the field only if a relcache flush occurred mid-query, but that's hardly out of the question. While we could fix this by copying all the data in question at query start, it seems better to just hold the relcache entry open for the whole query. While at it, improve the handling of support-function lookups: do that once per query not once per pruning test. There's still something to be desired here, in that we fail to exploit the possibility of caching data across queries in the fn_extra fields of the relcache's FmgrInfo structs, which could happen if we just used those structs in-place rather than copying them. However, combining that with the possibility of per-query lookups of cross-type comparison functions seems to require changes in the APIs of a lot of the pruning support functions, so it's too invasive to consider as part of this patch. A win would ensue only for complex partition key data types (e.g. arrays), so it may not be worth the trouble. David Rowley and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17850.1528755844@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Fix bugs in vacuum of shared rels, by keeping their relcache entries current.Andres Freund2018-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When vacuum processes a relation it uses the corresponding relcache entry's relfrozenxid / relminmxid as a cutoff for when to remove tuples etc. Unfortunately for nailed relations (i.e. critical system catalogs) bugs could frequently lead to the corresponding relcache entry being stale. This set of bugs could cause actual data corruption as vacuum would potentially not remove the correct row versions, potentially reviving them at a later point. After 699bf7d05c some corruptions in this vein were prevented, but the additional error checks could also trigger spuriously. Examples of such errors are: ERROR: found xmin ... from before relfrozenxid ... and ERROR: found multixact ... from before relminmxid ... To be caused by this bug the errors have to occur on system catalog tables. The two bugs are: 1) Invalidations for nailed relations were ignored, based on the theory that the relcache entry for such tables doesn't change. Which is largely true, except for fields like relfrozenxid etc. This means that changes to relations vacuumed in other sessions weren't picked up by already existing sessions. Luckily autovacuum doesn't have particularly longrunning sessions. 2) For shared *and* nailed relations, the shared relcache init file was never invalidated while running. That means that for such tables (e.g. pg_authid, pg_database) it's not just already existing sessions that are affected, but even new connections are as well. That explains why the reports usually were about pg_authid et. al. To fix 1), revalidate the rd_rel portion of a relcache entry when invalid. This implies a bit of extra complexity to deal with bootstrapping, but it's not too bad. The fix for 2) is simpler, simply always remove both the shared and local init files.
