* Avoid believing incomplete MCV-only stats in get_variable_range().Tom Lane2021-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_variable_range() would incautiously believe that statistics containing only an MCV list are sufficient to derive a range estimate. That's okay for an enum-like column that contains only MCVs, but otherwise the estimate could be pretty bad. Make it report that the range is indeterminate unless the MCVs plus nullfrac account for the whole table. I don't think this needs a dedicated test case, since a quick code coverage check verifies that the existing regression tests traverse all the alternatives. There is room to doubt that a future-proof test case could be built anyway, given that the submitted example accidentally doesn't fail before v11. Per bug #17207 from Simon Perepelitsa. Back-patch to v10. In principle this has been broken all along, but I'm hesitant to make such changes in 9.6, since if anyone is unhappy with 9.6.24's behavior there will be no second chance to fix it.

* Fix Portal snapshot tracking to handle subtransactions properly.Tom Lane2021-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 84f5c2908 forgot to consider the possibility that EnsurePortalSnapshotExists could run inside a subtransaction with lifespan shorter than the Portal's. In that case, the new active snapshot would be popped at the end of the subtransaction, leaving a dangling pointer in the Portal, with mayhem ensuing. To fix, make sure the ActiveSnapshot stack entry is marked with the same subtransaction nesting level as the associated Portal. It's certainly safe to do so since we won't be here at all unless the stack is empty; hence we can't create an out-of-order stack. Let's also apply this logic in the case where PortalRunUtility sets portalSnapshot, just to be sure that path can't cause similar problems. It's slightly less clear that that path can't create an out-of-order stack, so add an assertion guarding it. Report and patch by Bertrand Drouvot (with kibitzing by me). Back-patch to v11, like the previous commit. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/ff82b8c5-77f4-3fe7-6028-fcf3303e82dd@amazon.com

* Fix EXPLAIN to handle SEARCH BREADTH FIRST queries.Tom Lane2021-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rewriter transformation for SEARCH BREADTH FIRST produces a FieldSelect on a Var of type RECORD, where the Var references the recursive union's worktable output. EXPLAIN VERBOSE failed to handle this case, because it only expected such Vars to appear in CteScans not WorkTableScans. Fix that, and add some test cases exercising EXPLAIN on SEARCH and CYCLE queries. In principle this oversight is an old bug, but it seems that the case is unreachable without SEARCH BREADTH FIRST, because the parser fails when attempting to create such a reference manually. So for today I'll just patch HEAD/v14. Someday we might find that the code portion of this patch needs to be back-patched further. Per report from Atsushi Torikoshi.

* Fix performance regression from session statistics.Andres Freund2021-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Session statistics, as introduced by 960869da08, had several shortcomings: - an additional GetCurrentTimestamp() call that also impaired the accuracy of the data collected This can be avoided by passing the current timestamp we already have in pgstat_report_stat(). - an additional statistics UDP packet sent every 500ms This is solved by adding the new statistics to PgStat_MsgTabstat. This is conceptually ugly, because session statistics are not table statistics. But the struct already contains data unrelated to tables, so there is not much damage done. Connection and disconnection are reported in separate messages, which reduces the number of additional messages to two messages per session and a slight increase in PgStat_MsgTabstat size (but the same number of table stats fit). - Session time computation could overflow on systems where long is 32 bit.

* Disable anonymous record hash support except in special casesPeter Eisentraut2021-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 01e658fa74 added hash support for row types. This also added support for hashing anonymous record types, using the same approach that the type cache uses for comparison support for record types: It just reports that it works, but it might fail at run time if a component type doesn't actually support the operation. We get away with that for comparison because most types support that. But some types don't support hashing, so the current state can result in failures at run time where the planner chooses hashing over sorting, whereas that previously worked if only sorting was an option. We do, however, want the record hashing support for path tracking in recursive unions, and the SEARCH and CYCLE clauses built on that. In that case, hashing is the only plan option. So enable that, this commit implements the following approach: The type cache does not report that hashing is available for the record type. This undoes that part of 01e658fa74. Instead, callers that require hashing no matter what can override that result themselves. This patch only touches the callers to make the aforementioned recursive query cases work, namely the parse analysis of unions, as well as the hash_array() function.

* Fix missed lock acquisition while inlining new-style SQL functions.Tom Lane2021-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When starting to use a query parsetree loaded from the catalogs, we must begin by applying AcquireRewriteLocks(), to obtain the same relation locks that the parser would have gotten if the query were entered interactively, and to do some other cleanup such as dealing with later-dropped columns. New-style SQL functions are just as subject to this rule as other stored parsetrees; however, of the places dealing with such functions, only init_sql_fcache had gotten the memo. In particular, if we successfully inlined a new-style set-returning SQL function that contained any relation references, we'd either get an assertion failure or attempt to use those relation(s) sans locks. I also added AcquireRewriteLocks calls to fmgr_sql_validator and print_function_sqlbody. Desultory experiments didn't demonstrate any failures in those, but I suspect that I just didn't try hard enough. Certainly we don't expect nearby code paths to operate without locks. On the same logic of it-ought-to-have-the-same-effects-as-the-old-code, call pg_rewrite_query() in fmgr_sql_validator, too. It's possible that neither code path there needs to bother with rewriting, but doing the analysis to prove that is beyond my goals for today. Per bug #17161 from Alexander Lakhin.

* Revert refactoring of hex code to src/common/Michael Paquier2021-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a combined revert of the following commits: - c3826f8, a refactoring piece that moved the hex decoding code to src/common/. This code was cleaned up by aef8948, as it originally included no overflow checks in the same way as the base64 routines in src/common/ used by SCRAM, making it unsafe for its purpose. - aef8948, a more advanced refactoring of the hex encoding/decoding code to src/common/ that added sanity checks on the result buffer for hex decoding and encoding. As reported by Hans Buschmann, those overflow checks are expensive, and it is possible to see a performance drop in the decoding/encoding of bytea or LOs the longer they are. Simple SQLs working on large bytea values show a clear difference in perf profile. - ccf4e27, a cleanup made possible by aef8948. The reverts of all those commits bring back the performance of hex decoding and encoding back to what it was in ~13. Fow now and post-beta3, this is the simplest option.

* Adjust the integer overflow tests in the numeric code.Dean Rasheed2021-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Formerly, the numeric code tested whether an integer value of a larger type would fit in a smaller type by casting it to the smaller type and then testing if the reverse conversion produced the original value. That's perfectly fine, except that it caused a test failure on buildfarm animal castoroides, most likely due to a compiler bug. Instead, do these tests by comparing against PG_INT16/32_MIN/MAX. That matches existing code in other places, such as int84(), which is more widely tested, and so is less likely to go wrong. While at it, add regression tests covering the numeric-to-int8/4/2 conversions, and adjust the recently added tests to the style of 434ddfb79a (on the v11 branch) to make failures easier to diagnose.

* Fix division-by-zero error in to_char() with 'EEEE' format.Dean Rasheed2021-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a long-standing bug when using to_char() to format a numeric value in scientific notation -- if the value's exponent is less than -NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE-1 (-1001), it produced a division-by-zero error. The reason for this error was that get_str_from_var_sci() divides its input by 10^exp, which it produced using power_var_int(). However, the underflow test in power_var_int() causes it to return zero if the result scale is too small. That's not a problem for power_var_int()'s only other caller, power_var(), since that limits the rscale to 1000, but in get_str_from_var_sci() the exponent can be much smaller, requiring a much larger rscale. Fix by introducing a new function to compute 10^exp directly, with no rscale limit. This also allows 10^exp to be computed more efficiently, without any numeric multiplication, division or rounding.

* Fix corner-case errors and loss of precision in numeric_power().Dean Rasheed2021-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a couple of related problems that arise when raising numbers to very large powers. Firstly, when raising a negative number to a very large integer power, the result should be well-defined, but the previous code would only cope if the exponent was small enough to go through power_var_int(). Otherwise it would throw an internal error, attempting to take the logarithm of a negative number. Fix this by adding suitable handling to the general case in power_var() to cope with negative bases, checking for integer powers there. Next, when raising a (positive or negative) number whose absolute value is slightly less than 1 to a very large power, the result should approach zero as the power is increased. However, in some cases, for sufficiently large powers, this would lose all precision and return 1 instead of 0. This was due to the way that the local_rscale was being calculated for the final full-precision calculation: local_rscale = rscale + (int) val - ln_dweight + 8 The first two terms on the right hand side are meant to give the number of significant digits required in the result ("val" being the estimated result weight). However, this failed to account for the fact that rscale is clipped to a maximum of NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE (1000), and the result weight might be less then -1000, causing their sum to be negative, leading to a loss of precision. Fix this by forcing the number of significant digits calculated to be nonnegative. It's OK for it to be zero (when the result weight is less than -1000), since the local_rscale value then includes a few extra digits to ensure an accurate result. Finally, add additional underflow checks to exp_var() and power_var(), so that they consistently return zero for cases like this where the result is indistinguishable from zero. Some paths through this code already returned zero in such cases, but others were throwing overflow errors. Dean Rasheed, reviewed by Yugo Nagata.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a theoretical bug in tuplesort.c which, if a bounded sort was used in combination with a byval Datum sort (tuplesort_begin_datum), when switching the sort to a bounded heap in make_bounded_heap(), we'd call free_sort_tuple(). The problem was that when sorting Datums of a byval type, the tuple is NULL and free_sort_tuple() would free the memory for it regardless of that. This would result in a crash. Here we fix that simply by adding a check to see if the tuple is NULL before trying to disassociate and free any memory belonging to it.

* Fix incorrect return value in pg_size_pretty(bigint)David Rowley2021-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to how pg_size_pretty(bigint) was implemented, it's possible that when given a negative number of bytes that the returning value would not match the equivalent positive return value when given the equivalent positive number of bytes. This was due to two separate issues. 1. The function used bit shifting to convert the number of bytes into larger units. The rounding performed by bit shifting is not the same as dividing. For example -3 >> 1 = -2, but -3 / 2 = -1. These two operations are only equivalent with positive numbers. 2. The half_rounded() macro rounded towards positive infinity. This meant that negative numbers rounded towards zero and positive numbers rounded away from zero. Here we fix #1 by dividing the values instead of bit shifting. We fix #2 by adjusting the half_rounded macro always to round away from zero. Additionally, adjust the pg_size_pretty(numeric) function to be more explicit that it's using division rather than bit shifting. A casual observer might have believed bit shifting was used due to a static function being named numeric_shift_right. However, that function was calculating the divisor from the number of bits and performed division. Here we make that more clear. This change is just cosmetic and does not affect the return value of the numeric version of the function. Here we also add a set of regression tests both versions of pg_size_pretty() which test the values directly before and after the function switches to the next unit. This bug was introduced in 8a1fab36a. Prior to that negative values were always displayed in bytes.

It doesn't look like I stopped to think much about what that would cost, but recent investigation shows that the cost is enormous: it roughly doubles the time needed for cache-clobber test runs. There does seem to be value in this behavior when trying to test the opclass-cache loading logic itself, but for other purposes the cost is excessive. Hence, let's back off to doing this only when debug_invalidate_system_caches_always is at least 3; or in older branches, when CLOBBER_CACHE_RECURSIVELY is defined. While here, clean up some other minor issues in LookupOpclassInfo. Re-order the code so we aren't left with broken cache entries (leading to later core dumps) in the unlikely case that we suffer OOM while trying to allocate space for a new entry. (That seems to be my oversight in 03ffc4d6d.) Also, in >= v13, stop allocating one array entry too many. That's evidently left over from sloppy reversion in 851b14b0c. Back-patch to all supported branches, mainly to reduce the runtime of cache-clobbering buildfarm animals. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1370856.1625428625@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Support for unnest(multirange) and cast multirange as an array of rangesAlexander Korotkov2021-06-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been spotted that multiranges lack of ability to decompose them into individual ranges. Subscription and proper expanded object representation require substantial work, and it's too late for v14. This commit provides the implementation of unnest(multirange) and cast multirange as an array of ranges, which is quite trivial. unnest(multirange) is defined as a polymorphic procedure. The catalog description of the cast underlying procedure is duplicated for each multirange type because we don't have anyrangearray polymorphic type to use here. Catversion is bumped.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, a zero value for the relfilenode resulted in a confusing error message about "unexpected duplicate".

* Reconsider the handling of procedure OUT parameters.Tom Lane2021-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2453ea142 redefined pg_proc.proargtypes to include the types of OUT parameters, for procedures only. While that had some advantages for implementing the SQL-spec behavior of DROP PROCEDURE, it was pretty disastrous from a number of other perspectives. Notably, since the primary key of pg_proc is name + proargtypes, this made it possible to have multiple procedures with identical names + input arguments and differing output argument types. That would make it impossible to call any one of the procedures by writing just NULL (or "?", or any other data-type-free notation) for the output argument(s). The change also seems likely to cause grave confusion for client applications that examine pg_proc and expect the traditional definition of proargtypes. Hence, revert the definition of proargtypes to what it was, and undo a number of complications that had been added to support that. To support the SQL-spec behavior of DROP PROCEDURE, when there are no argmode markers in the command's parameter list, we perform the lookup both ways (that is, matching against both proargtypes and proallargtypes), succeeding if we get just one unique match. In principle this could result in ambiguous-function failures that would not happen when using only one of the two rules. However, overloading of procedure names is thought to be a pretty rare usage, so this shouldn't cause many problems in practice. Postgres-specific code such as pg_dump can defend against any possibility of such failures by being careful to specify argmodes for all procedure arguments. This also fixes a few other bugs in the area of CALL statements with named parameters, and improves the documentation a little. catversion bump forced because the representation of procedures with OUT arguments changes.

* Reorder superuser check in pg_log_backend_memory_contexts()Michael Paquier2021-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The use of this function is limited to superusers and the code includes a hardcoded check for that. However, the code would look for the PGPROC entry to signal for the memory dump before checking if the user is a superuser or not, which does not make sense if we know that an error will be returned. Note that the code would let one know if a process was a PostgreSQL process or not even for non-authorized users, which is not the case now, but this avoids taking ProcArrayLock that will most likely finish by being unnecessary.
