* Fix CLUSTER on expression indexes.Andres Freund2019-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the introduction of different slot types, in 1a0586de3657, we create a virtual slot in tuplesort_begin_cluster(). While that looks right, it unfortunately doesn't actually work, as ExecStoreHeapTuple() is used to store tuples in the slot. Unfortunately no regression tests for CLUSTER on expression indexes existed so far. Fix the slot type, and add bare bones tests for CLUSTER on expression indexes.

* Fix bitshiftright()'s zero-padding some more.Tom Lane2019-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5ac0d9360 failed to entirely fix bitshiftright's habit of leaving one-bits in the pad space that should be all zeroes, because in a moment of sheer brain fade I'd concluded that only the code path used for not-a-multiple-of-8 shift distances needed to be fixed. Of course, a multiple-of-8 shift distance can also cause the problem, so we need to forcibly zero the extra bits in both cases. Per bug #16037 from Alexander Lakhin. As before, back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16037-1d1ebca564db54f4@postgresql.org
* Avoid unnecessary out-of-memory errors during encoding conversion.Tom Lane2019-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Encoding conversion uses the very simplistic rule that the output can't be more than 4X longer than the input, and palloc's a buffer of that size. This results in failure to convert any string longer than 1/4 GB, which is becoming an annoying limitation. As a band-aid to improve matters, allow the allocated output buffer size to exceed 1GB. We still insist that the final result fit into MaxAllocSize (1GB), though. Perhaps it'd be safe to relax that restriction, but it'd require close analysis of all callers, which is daunting (not least because external modules might call these functions). For the moment, this should allow a 2X to 4X improvement in the longest string we can convert, which is a useful gain in return for quite a simple patch. Also, once we have successfully converted a long string, repalloc the output down to the actual string length, returning the excess to the malloc pool. This seems worth doing since we can usually expect to give back several MB if we take this path at all. This still leaves much to be desired, most notably that the assumption that MAX_CONVERSION_GROWTH == 4 is very fragile, and yet we have no guard code verifying that the output buffer isn't overrun. Fixing that would require significant changes in the encoding conversion APIs, so it'll have to wait for some other day. The present patch seems safely back-patchable, so patch all supported branches.

* Allow repalloc() to give back space when a large chunk is downsized.Tom Lane2019-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, if you resized a large (>8K) palloc chunk down to a smaller size, aset.c made no attempt to return any space to the malloc pool. That's unpleasant if a really large allocation is resized to a significantly smaller size. I think no such cases existed when this code was designed, and I'm not sure whether they're common even yet, but an upcoming fix to encoding conversion will certainly create such cases. Therefore, fix AllocSetRealloc so that it gives realloc() a chance to do something with the block. This doesn't noticeably increase complexity, we mostly just have to change the order in which the cases are considered. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix failure to zero-pad the result of bitshiftright().Tom Lane2019-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the bitstring length is not a multiple of 8, we'd shift the rightmost bits into the pad space, which must be zeroes --- bit_cmp, for one, depends on that. This'd lead to the result failing to compare equal to what it should compare equal to, as reported in bug #16013 from Daryl Waycott. This is, if memory serves, not the first such bug in the bitstring functions. In hopes of making it the last one, do a bit more work than minimally necessary to fix the bug: * Add assertion checks to bit_out() and varbit_out() to complain if they are given incorrectly-padded input. This will improve the odds that manual testing of any new patch finds problems. * Encapsulate the padding-related logic in macros to make it easier to use. Also, remove unnecessary padding logic from bit_or() and bitxor(). Somebody had already noted that we need not re-pad the result of bit_and() since the inputs are required to be the same length, but failed to extrapolate that to the other two. Also, move a comment block that once was near the head of varbit.c (but people kept putting other stuff in front of it), to put it in the header block. Note for the release notes: if anyone has inconsistent data as a result of saving the output of bitshiftright() in a table, it's possible to fix it with something like UPDATE mytab SET bitcol = ~(~bitcol) WHERE bitcol != ~(~bitcol); This has been broken since day one, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Straighten out leakproofness markings on text comparison functions.Tom Lane2019-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we introduced the idea of leakproof functions, texteq and textne were marked leakproof but their sibling text comparison functions were not. This inconsistency seemed justified because texteq/textne just relied on memcmp() and so could easily be seen to be leakproof, while the other comparison functions are far more complex and indeed can throw input-dependent errors. However, that argument crashed and burned with the addition of nondeterministic collations, because now texteq/textne may invoke the exact same varstr_cmp() infrastructure as the rest. It makes no sense whatever to give them different leakproofness markings. After a certain amount of angst we've concluded that it's all right to consider varstr_cmp() to be leakproof, mostly because the other choice would be disastrous for performance of many queries where leakproofness matters. The input-dependent errors should only be reachable for corrupt input data, or so we hope anyway; certainly, if they are reachable in practice, we've got problems with requirements as basic as maintaining a btree index on a text column. Hence, run around to all the SQL functions that derive from varstr_cmp() and mark them leakproof. This should result in a useful gain in flexibility/performance for queries in which non-leakproofness degrades the efficiency of the query plan. Back-patch to v12 where nondeterministic collations were added. While this isn't an essential bug fix given the determination that varstr_cmp() is leakproof, we might as well apply it now that we've been forced into a post-beta4 catversion bump.

* Fix up handling of nondeterministic collations with pattern_ops opclasses.Tom Lane2019-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | text_pattern_ops and its siblings can't be used with nondeterministic collations, because they use the text_eq operator which will not behave as bitwise equality if applied with a nondeterministic collation. The initial implementation of that restriction was to insert a run-time test in the related comparison functions, but that is inefficient, may throw misleading errors, and will throw errors in some cases that would work. It seems sufficient to just prevent the combination during CREATE INDEX, so do that instead. Lacking any better way to identify the opclasses involved, we need to hard-wire tests for them, which requires hand-assigned values for their OIDs, which forces a catversion bump because they previously had OIDs that would be assigned automatically. That's slightly annoying in the v12 branch, but fortunately we're not at rc1 yet, so just do it. Back-patch to v12 where nondeterministic collations were added. In passing, run make reformat-dat-files, which found some unrelated whitespace issues (slightly different ones in HEAD and v12).

* Fix some minor spec-compliance issues in jsonpath lexer.Tom Lane2019-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although the SQL/JSON tech report makes reference to ECMAScript which allows both single- and double-quoted strings, all the rest of the report speaks only of double-quoted string literals in jsonpaths. That's more compatible with JSON itself; moreover single-quoted strings are hard to use inside a jsonpath that is itself a single-quoted SQL literal. So guess that the intent is to allow only double-quoted literals, and remove lexer support for single-quoted literals. It'll be less painful to add this again later if we're wrong, than to remove a shipped feature. Also, adjust the lexer so that unrecognized backslash sequences are treated as just meaning the escaped character, not as errors. This change has much better support in the standards, as JSON, JavaScript and ECMAScript all make it plain that that's what's supposed to happen. Back-patch to v12.

* Fix bogus handling of XQuery regex option flags.Tom Lane2019-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SQL spec defers to XQuery to define what the option flags are for LIKE_REGEX patterns. XQuery says that: * 's' allows the dot character to match newlines, which by default it will not; * 'm' allows ^ and $ to match at newlines, not only at the start/end of the whole string. Thus, these are *not* inverses as they are for the similarly-named POSIX options, and neither one corresponds to the POSIX 'n' option. Fortunately, Spencer's library does expose these two behaviors as separately twiddlable flags, so we just have to fix the mapping from JSP flag bits to REG flag bits. I also chose to rename the symbol for 's' to DOTALL, to make it clearer that it's not the inverse of MLINE. Also, XQuery says that if the 'q' flag "is used together with the m, s, or x flag, that flag has no effect". I read this as saying that 'q' overrides the other flags; whoever wrote our code seems to have read it backwards. Lastly, while XQuery's 'x' flag is related to what Spencer's code does for REG_EXPANDED, it's not the same or a subset. It seems best to treat XQuery's 'x' as unimplemented for now. Maybe later we can expand our regex code to offer 'x'-style parsing as a separate option. While at it, refactor the jsonpath code so that (a) there's only one copy of the flag transformation logic not two, and (b) the processing of flags is independent of the order in which the flags are written. We need some documentation updates to go with this, but I'll tackle that separately. Back-patch to v12 where this code originated.

* Avoid catalog lookups in RelationAllowsEarlyPruning().Thomas Munro2019-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RelationAllowsEarlyPruning() performed a catalog scan, but is used in two contexts where that was a bad idea: 1. In heap_page_prune_opt(), which runs very frequently in some large scans. This caused major performance problems in a field report that was easy to reproduce. 2. In TestForOldSnapshot(), which runs while we hold a buffer content lock. It's not clear if this was guaranteed to be free of buffer deadlock risk. The check was introduced in commit 2cc41acd8 and defended against a real problem: 9.6's hash indexes have no page LSN and so we can't allow early pruning (ie the snapshot-too-old feature). We can remove the check from all later releases though: hash indexes are now logged, and there is no way to create UNLOGGED indexes on regular logged tables. If a future release allows such a combination, it might need to put a similar check in place, but it'll need some more thought. Back-patch to 10.

* Reject empty names and recursion in config-file include directives.Tom Lane2019-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An empty file name or subdirectory name leads join_path_components() to just produce the parent directory name, which leads to weird failures or recursive inclusions. Let's throw a specific error for that. It takes only slightly more code to detect all-blank names, so do so. Also, detect direct recursion, ie a file calling itself. As coded this will also detect recursion via "include_dir '.'", which is perhaps more likely than explicitly including the file itself. Detecting indirect recursion would require API changes for guc-file.l functions, which seems not worth it since extensions might call them. The nesting depth limit will catch such cases eventually, just not with such an on-point error message. In passing, adjust the example usages in postgresql.conf.sample to perhaps eliminate the problem at the source: there's no reason for the examples to suggest that an empty value is valid. Per a trouble report from Brent Bates. Back-patch to 9.5; the issue is old, but the code in 9.4 is enough different that the patch doesn't apply easily, and it doesn't seem worth the trouble to fix there.

* Restore json{b}_populate_record{set}'s ability to take type info from AS.Tom Lane2019-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the record argument is NULL and has no declared type more concrete than RECORD, we can't extract useful information about the desired rowtype from it. In this case, see if we're in FROM with an AS clause, and if so extract the needed rowtype info from AS. It worked like this before v11, but commit 37a795a60 removed the behavior, reasoning that it was undocumented, inefficient, and utterly not self-consistent. If you want to take type info from an AS clause, you should be using the json_to_record() family of functions not the json_populate_record() family. Also, it was already the case that the "populate" functions would fail for a null-valued RECORD input (with an unfriendly "record type has not been registered" error) when there wasn't an AS clause at hand, and it wasn't obvious that that behavior wasn't OK when there was one. However, it emerges that some people were depending on this to work, and indeed the rather off-point error message you got if you left off AS encouraged slapping on AS without switching to the json_to_record() family. Hence, put back the fallback behavior of looking for AS. While at it, improve the run-time error you get when there's no place to obtain type info; we can do a lot better than "record type has not been registered". (We can't, unfortunately, easily improve the parse-time error message that leads people down this path in the first place.) While at it, I refactored the code a bit to avoid duplicating the same logic in several different places. Per bug #15940 from Jaroslav Sivy. Back-patch to v11 where the current coding came in. (The pre-v11 deficiencies in this area aren't regressions, so we'll leave those branches alone.) Patch by me, based on preliminary analysis by Dmitry Dolgov.

* Fix plpgsql to re-look-up composite type names at need.Tom Lane2019-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 4b93f5799 rearranged things in plpgsql to make it cope better with composite types changing underneath it intra-session. However, I failed to consider the case of a composite type being dropped and recreated entirely. In my defense, the previous coding didn't consider that possibility at all either --- but it would accidentally work so long as you didn't change the type's field list, because the built-at-compile-time list of component variables would then still match the type's new definition. The new coding, however, occasionally tries to re-look-up the type by OID, and then fails to find the dropped type. To fix this, we need to save the TypeName struct, and then redo the type OID lookup from that. Of course that's expensive, so we don't want to do it every time we need the type OID. This can be fixed in the same way that 4b93f5799 dealt with changes to composite types' definitions: keep an eye on the type's typcache entry to see if its tupledesc has been invalidated. (Perhaps, at some point, this mechanism should be generalized so it can work for non-composite types too; but for now, plpgsql only tries to cope with intra-session redefinitions of composites.) I'm slightly hesitant to back-patch this into v11, because it changes the contents of struct PLpgSQL_type as well as the signature of plpgsql_build_datatype(), so in principle it could break code that is poking into the innards of plpgsql. However, the only popular extension of that ilk is pldebugger, and it doesn't seem to be affected. Since this is a regression for people who were relying on the old behavior, it seems worth taking the small risk of causing compatibility issues. Per bug #15913 from Daniel Fiori.

* Fix ALTER SYSTEM to cope with duplicate entries in postgresql.auto.conf.Tom Lane2019-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ALTER SYSTEM itself normally won't make duplicate entries (although up till this patch, it was possible to confuse it by writing case variants of a GUC's name). However, if some external tool has appended entries to the file, that could result in duplicate entries for a single GUC name. In such a situation, ALTER SYSTEM did exactly the wrong thing, because it replaced or removed only the first matching entry, leaving the later one(s) still there and hence still determining the active value. This patch fixes that by making ALTER SYSTEM sweep through the file and remove all matching entries, then (if not ALTER SYSTEM RESET) append the new setting to the end. This means entries will be in order of last setting rather than first setting, but that shouldn't hurt anything. Also, make the comparisons case-insensitive so that the right things happen if you do, say, ALTER SYSTEM SET "TimeZone" = 'whatever'. This has been broken since ALTER SYSTEM was invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix planner's test for case-foldable characters in ILIKE with ICU.Tom Lane2019-08-12

In some edge cases, when same Unicode codepoints have different binary representations in database encoding, we diverge standard to achieve better performance of "==" operator.

* Tweak our special-case logic for the IANA "Factory" timezone.Tom Lane2019-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_timezone_names() tries to avoid showing the "Factory" zone in the view, mainly because that has traditionally had a very long "abbreviation" such as "Local time zone must be set--see zic manual page", so that showing it messes up psql's formatting of the whole view. Since tzdb version 2016g, IANA instead uses the abbreviation "-00", which is sane enough that there's no reason to discriminate against it. On the other hand, it emerges that FreeBSD and possibly other packagers are so wedded to backwards compatibility that they hack the IANA data to keep the old spelling --- and not just that old spelling, but even older spellings that IANA used back in the stone age. This caused the filter logic to fail to suppress "Factory" at all on such platforms, though the formatting problem is definitely real in that case. To solve both problems, get rid of the hard-wired assumption about exactly what Factory's abbreviation is, and instead reject abbreviations exceeding 31 characters. This will allow Factory to appear in the view if and only if it's using the modern abbreviation. In passing, simplify the code we add to zic.c to support "zic -P" to remove its now-obsolete hacks to not print the Factory zone's abbreviation. Unlike pg_timezone_names(), there's no reason for that code to support old/nonstandard timezone data. Since we generally prefer to keep timezone-related behavior the same in all branches, and since this is arguably a bug fix, back-patch to all supported branches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Money values exceeding about 18 digits (depending on lc_monetary) could be inaccurately converted to numeric, due to select_div_scale() deciding it didn't need to compute any fractional digits. Force its hand by setting the dscale of one division input to equal the number of fractional digits we need. In passing, rearrange the logic to not do useless work in locales where money values are considered integral. Per bug #15925 from Slawomir Chodnicki. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix daterange canonicalization for +/- infinity.Jeff Davis2019-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The values 'infinity' and '-infinity' are a part of the DATE type itself, so a bound of the date 'infinity' is not the same as an unbounded/infinite range. However, it is still wrong to try to canonicalize such values, because adding or subtracting one has no effect. Fix by treating 'infinity' and '-infinity' the same as unbounded ranges for the purposes of canonicalization (but not other purposes). Backpatch to all versions because it is inconsistent with the documented behavior. Note that this could be an incompatibility for applications relying on the behavior contrary to the documentation.

* Fix get_actual_variable_range() to cope with broken HOT chains.Tom Lane2019-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3ca930fc3 modified get_actual_variable_range() to use a new "SnapshotNonVacuumable" snapshot type for selecting tuples that it would consider valid. However, because that snapshot type can accept recently-dead tuples, this caused a bug when using a recently-created index: we might accept a recently-dead tuple that is an early member of a broken HOT chain and does not actually match the index entry. Then, the data extracted from the heap tuple would not necessarily be an endpoint value of the column; it could even be NULL, leading to get_actual_variable_range() itself reporting "found unexpected null value in index". Even without an error, this could lead to poor plan choices due to an erroneous notion of the endpoint value. We can improve matters by changing the code to use the index-only scan technique (which didn't exist when get_actual_variable_range was originally written). If any of the tuples in a HOT chain are live enough to satisfy SnapshotNonVacuumable, we take the data from the index entry, ignoring what is in the heap. This fixes the problem without changing the live-vs-dead-tuple behavior from what was intended by commit 3ca930fc3. A side benefit is that for static tables we might not have to touch the heap at all (when the extremal value is in an all-visible page). In addition, we can save some overhead by not having to create a complete ExecutorState, and we don't need to run FormIndexDatum, avoiding more cycles as well as the possibility of failure for indexes on expressions. (I'm not sure that this code would ever be used to determine the extreme value of an expression, in the current state of the planner; but it's definitely possible that lower-order columns of the selected index could be expressions. So one could construct perhaps-artificial examples in which the old code unexpectedly failed due to trying to compute an expression's value for a now-dead row.) Per report from Manuel Rigger. Back-patch to v11 where commit 3ca930fc3 came in. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CA+u7OA7W4NWEhCvftdV6_8bbm2vgypi5nuxfnSEJQqVKFSUoMg@mail.gmail.com

* Don't call data type input functions in GUC check hooksPeter Eisentraut2019-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of calling pg_lsn_in() in check_recovery_target_lsn and timestamptz_in() in check_recovery_target_time, reorganize the respective code so that we don't raise any errors in the check hooks. The previous code tried to use PG_TRY/PG_CATCH to handle errors in a way that is not safe, so now the code contains no ereport() calls and can operate safely within the GUC error handling system. Moreover, since the interpretation of the recovery_target_time string may depend on the time zone, we cannot do the final processing of that string until all the GUC processing is done. Instead, check_recovery_target_time() now does some parsing for syntax checking, but the actual conversion to a timestamptz value is done later in the recovery code that uses it.

* Rework the pg_statistic_ext catalogTomas Vondra2019-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since extended statistic got introduced in PostgreSQL 10, there was a single catalog pg_statistic_ext storing both the definitions and built statistic. That's however problematic when a user is supposed to have access only to the definitions, but not to user data. Consider for example pg_dump on a database with RLS enabled - if the pg_statistic_ext catalog respects RLS (which it should, if it contains user data), pg_dump would not see any records and the result would not define any extended statistics. That would be a surprising behavior. Until now this was not a pressing issue, because the existing types of extended statistic (functional dependencies and ndistinct coefficients) do not include any user data directly. This changed with introduction of MCV lists, which do include most common combinations of values. The easiest way to fix this is to split the pg_statistic_ext catalog into two - one for definitions, one for the built statistic values. The new catalog is called pg_statistic_ext_data, and we're maintaining a 1:1 relationship with the old catalog - either there are matching records in both catalogs, or neither of them. Bumped CATVERSION due to changing system catalog definitions.

* Fix incorrect printing of queries with duplicated join names.Tom Lane2019-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Given a query in which multiple JOIN nodes used the same alias (which'd necessarily be in different sub-SELECTs), ruleutils.c would assign the JOIN nodes distinct aliases for clarity ... but then it forgot to print the modified aliases when dumping the JOIN nodes themselves. This results in a dump/reload hazard for views, because the emitted query is flat-out incorrect: Vars will be printed with table names that have no referent. This has been wrong for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix conversion of JSON strings to JSON output columns in json_to_record().Tom Lane2019-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | json_to_record(), when an output column is declared as type json or jsonb, should emit the corresponding field of the input JSON object. But it got this slightly wrong when the field is just a string literal: it failed to escape the contents of the string. That typically resulted in syntax errors if the string contained any double quotes or backslashes. jsonb_to_record() handles such cases correctly, but I added corresponding test cases for it too, to prevent future backsliding. Improve the documentation, as it provided only a very hand-wavy description of the conversion rules used by these functions. Per bug report from Robert Vollmert. Back-patch to v10 where the error was introduced (by commit cf35346e8). Note that PG 9.4 - 9.6 also get this case wrong, but differently so: they feed the de-escaped contents of the string literal to json[b]_in. That behavior is less obviously wrong, so possibly it's being depended on in the field, so I won't risk trying to make the older branches behave like the newer ones.

* Don't access catalogs to validate GUCs when not connected to a DB.Andres Freund2019-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vignesh found this bug in the check function for default_table_access_method's check hook, but that was just copied from older GUCs. Investigation by Michael and me then found the bug in further places. When not connected to a database (e.g. in a walsender connection), we cannot perform (most) GUC checks that need database access. Even when only shared tables are needed, unless they're nailed (c.f. RelationCacheInitializePhase2()), they cannot be accessed without pg_class etc. being present. Fix by extending the existing IsTransactionState() checks to also check for MyDatabaseOid.
