* Fix missing space in EXPLAIN ANALYZE output.Robert Haas2025-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | Commit ddb17e387aa28d61521227377b00f997756b8a27 introduced this regression. Ideally, the regression tests would have caught this mistake, but apparently they don't test with timing enabled, presumably because that would make the output vary.

* Invent pgstat_fetch_stat_backend_by_pid()Michael Paquier2025-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This code is extracted from pg_stat_get_backend_io() in pgstatfuncs.c, so as it can be shared with other areas that need backend pgstats entries while having the benefits of the various sanity checks refactored here. As per its name, this retrieves backend statistics based on a PID, with the option of retrieving a BackendType if given in input. Currently, this is used for the backend-level IO statistics. The next move would be to reuse that for the backend-level WAL statistics.

* Refactor COPY TO to use format callback functions.Masahiko Sawada2025-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit introduces a new CopyToRoutine struct, which is a set of callback routines to copy tuples in a specific format. It also makes the existing formats (text, CSV, and binary) utilize these format callbacks. This change is a preliminary step towards making the COPY TO command extensible in terms of output formats. Additionally, this refactoring contributes to a performance improvement by reducing the number of "if" branches that need to be checked on a per-row basis when sending field representations in text or CSV mode. The performance benchmark results showed ~5% performance gain in text or CSV mode.

* EXPLAIN: Always use two fractional digits for row counts.Robert Haas2025-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit ddb17e387aa28d61521227377b00f997756b8a27 attempted to avoid confusing users by displaying digits after the decimal point only when nloops > 1, since it's impossible to have a fraction row count after a single iteration. However, this made the regression tests unstable since parallal queries will have nloops>1 for all nodes below the Gather or Gather Merge in normal cases, but if the workers don't start in time and the leader finishes all the work, they will suddenly have nloops==1, making it unpredictable whether the digits after the decimal point would be displayed or not. Although 44cbba9a7f51a3888d5087fc94b23614ba2b81f2 seemed to fix the immediate failures, it may still be the case that there are lower-probability failures elsewhere in the regression tests. Various fixes are possible here. For example, it has previously been proposed that we should try to display the digits after the decimal point only if rows/nloops is an integer, but currently rows is storead as a float so it's not theoretically an exact quantity -- precision could be lost in extreme cases. It has also been proposed that we should try to display the digits after the decimal point only if we're under some sort of construct that could potentially cause looping regardless of whether it actually does. While such ideas are not without merit, this patch adopts the much simpler solution of always display two decimal digits. If that approach stands up to scrutiny from the buildfarm and human users, it spares us the trouble of doing anything more complex; if not, we can reassess. This commit incidentally reverts 44cbba9a7f51a3888d5087fc94b23614ba2b81f2, which should no longer be needed.

* Remove arbitrary cap on read_stream.c buffer queue.Thomas Munro2025-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the internal queue of buffers was capped at max_ios * 4, though not less than io_combine_limit, at allocation time. That was done in the first version based on conservative theories about resource usage and heuristics pending later work. The configured I/O depth could not always be reached with dense random streams generated by ANALYZE, VACUUM, the proposed Bitmap Heap Scan patch, and also sequential streams with the proposed AIO subsystem to name some examples. The new formula is (max_ios + 1) * io_combine_limit, enough buffers for the full configured I/O concurrency level using the full configured I/O combine size, plus the buffers from one finished but not yet consumed full-sized I/O. Significantly more memory would be needed for high GUC values if the client code requests a large per-buffer data size, but that is discouraged (existing and proposed stream users try to keep it under a few words, if not zero). With this new formula, an intermediate variable could have overflowed under maximum GUC values, so its data type is adjusted to cope.

* Fix possible double-release of spinlock in procsignal.cMichael Paquier2025-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 9d9b9d46f3c5 has added spinlocks to protect the fields in ProcSignal flags, introducing a code path in ProcSignalInit() where a spinlock could be released twice if the pss_pid field of a ProcSignalSlot is found as already set. Multiple spinlock releases have no effect with most spinlock implementations, but this could cause the code to run into issues when the spinlock is acquired concurrently by a different process. This sanity check on pss_pid generates a LOG that can be delayed until after the spinlock is released as, like older versions up to v17, the code expects the initialization of the ProcSignalSlot to happen even if pss_pid is found incorrect. The code is changed so as the old pss_pid is read while holding the slot's spinlock, with the LOG from the sanity check generated after releasing the spinlock, preventing the double release.

* Use attnum to identify index columns in pg_restore_attribute_stats().Tom Lane2025-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we used attname for both table and index columns, but that is problematic for indexes because their attnames are assigned by internal rules that don't guarantee to preserve the names across dump and reload. (This is what's causing the remaining buildfarm failures in cross-version-upgrade tests.) Fortunately we can use attnum instead, since there's no such thing as adding or dropping columns in an existing index. We met this same problem previously with ALTER INDEX ... SET STATISTICS, and solved it the same way, cf commit 5b6d13eec. In pg_restore_attribute_stats() itself, we accept either attnum or attname, but the policy used by pg_dump is to always use attname for tables and attnum for indexes.

* Re-add GUC track_wal_io_timingMichael Paquier2025-02-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit is a rework of 2421e9a51d20, about which Andres Freund has raised some concerns as it is valuable to have both track_io_timing and track_wal_io_timing in some cases, as the WAL write and fsync paths can be a major bottleneck for some workloads. Hence, it can be relevant to not calculate the WAL timings in environments where pg_test_timing performs poorly while capturing some IO data under track_io_timing for the non-WAL IO paths. The opposite can be also true: it should be possible to disable the non-WAL timings and enable the WAL timings (the previous GUC setups allowed this possibility). track_wal_io_timing is added back in this commit, controlling if WAL timings should be calculated in pg_stat_io for the read, fsync and write paths, as done previously with pg_stat_wal. pg_stat_wal previously tracked only the sync and write parts (now removed), read stats is new data tracked in pg_stat_io, all three are aggregated if track_wal_io_timing is enabled. The read part matters during recovery or if a XLogReader is used. Extra note: more control over if the types of timings calculated in pg_stat_io could be done with a GUC that lists pairs of (IOObject,IOOp).

* Change relpath() et al to return path by valueAndres Freund2025-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For AIO, and also some other recent patches, we need the ability to call relpath() in a critical section. Until now that was not feasible, as it allocated memory. The fact that relpath() allocated memory also made it awkward to use in log messages because we had to take care to free the memory afterwards. Which we e.g. didn't do for when zeroing out an invalid buffer. We discussed other solutions, e.g. filling a pre-allocated buffer that's passed to relpath(), but they all came with plenty downsides or were larger projects. The easiest fix seems to be to make relpath() return the path by value. To be able to return the path by value we need to determine the maximum length of a relation path. This patch adds a long #define that computes the exact maximum, which is verified to be correct in a regression test. As this change the signature of relpath(), extensions using it will need to adapt their code. We discussed leaving a backward-compat shim in place, but decided it's not worth it given the use of relpath() doesn't seem widespread.

* Eliminate code duplication in replace_rte_variables callbacksRichard Guo2025-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The callback functions ReplaceVarsFromTargetList_callback and pullup_replace_vars_callback are both used to replace Vars in an expression tree that reference a particular RTE with items from a targetlist, and they both need to expand whole-tuple references and deal with OLD/NEW RETURNING list Vars.

* Expand virtual generated columns in the plannerRichard Guo2025-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 83ea6c540 added support for virtual generated columns that are computed on read. All Var nodes in the query that reference virtual generated columns must be replaced with the corresponding generation expressions. Currently, this replacement occurs in the rewriter. However, this approach has several issues. If a Var referencing a virtual generated column has any varnullingrels, those varnullingrels need to be propagated into the generation expression. Failing to do so can lead to "wrong varnullingrels" errors and improper outer-join removal. Additionally, if such a Var comes from the nullable side of an outer join, we may need to wrap the generation expression in a PlaceHolderVar to ensure that it is evaluated at the right place and hence is forced to null when the outer join should do so. In certain cases, such as when the query uses grouping sets, we also need a PlaceHolderVar for anything that is not a simple Var to isolate subexpressions. Failure to do so can result in incorrect results. To fix these issues, this patch expands the virtual generated columns in the planner rather than in the rewriter, and leverages the pullup_replace_vars architecture to avoid code duplication. The generation expressions will be correctly marked with nullingrel bits and wrapped in PlaceHolderVars when needed by the pullup_replace_vars callback function. This requires handling the OLD/NEW RETURNING list Vars in pullup_replace_vars_callback, as it may now deal with Vars referencing the result relation instead of a subquery. The "wrong varnullingrels" error was reported by Alexander Lakhin. The incorrect result issue and the improper outer-join removal issue were reported by Richard Guo.

* Delay extraction of TIDBitmap per page offsetsMelanie Plageman2025-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pages from the bitmap created by the TIDBitmap API can be exact or lossy. The TIDBitmap API extracts the tuple offsets from exact pages into an array for the convenience of the caller. This was done in tbm_private|shared_iterate() right after advancing the iterator. However, as long as tbm_private|shared_iterate() set a reference to the PagetableEntry in the TBMIterateResult, the offset extraction can be done later. Waiting to extract the tuple offsets has a few benefits. For the shared iterator case, it allows us to extract the offsets after dropping the shared iterator state lock, reducing time spent holding a contended lock. Separating the iteration step and extracting the offsets later also allows us to avoid extracting the offsets for prefetched blocks. Those offsets were never used, so the overhead of extracting and storing them was wasted. The real motivation for this change, however, is that future commits will make bitmap heap scan use the read stream API. This requires a TBMIterateResult per issued block. By removing the array of tuple offsets from the TBMIterateResult and only extracting the offsets when they are used, we reduce the memory required for per buffer data substantially.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | MAX_BACKENDS influences many things besides postmaster. I e.g. noticed that we don't have static assertions ensuring BUF_REFCOUNT_MASK is big enough for MAX_BACKENDS, adding them would require including postmaster.h in buf_internals.h which doesn't seem right. While at that, add MAX_BACKENDS_BITS, as that's useful in various places for static assertions (to be added in subsequent commits).

* Remove read/sync fields from pg_stat_wal and GUC track_wal_io_timingMichael Paquier2025-02-24

So, keeping the same information in pg_stat_wal has little benefits. Another benefit of this commit is the removal of PendingWalStats, simplifying an upcoming patch to add per-backend WAL statistics, which already support IO statistics and which have access to the write/sync stats data of WAL. The GUC track_wal_io_timing, that was used to enable or disable the aggregation of the write and sync timings for WAL, is also removed. pgstat_prepare_io_time() is simplified. Bump catalog version.

* Allow lwlocks to be disownedAndres Freund2025-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To implement AIO writes, the backend initiating writes needs to transfer the lock ownership to the AIO subsystem, so the lock held during the write can be released in another backend. Other backends need to be able to "complete" an asynchronously started IO to avoid deadlocks (consider e.g. one backend starting IO for a buffer and then waiting for a heavyweight lock held by another relation followed by the current holder of the heavyweight lock waiting for the IO to complete). To that end, this commit adds LWLockDisown() and LWLockReleaseDisowned(). If code uses LWLockDisown() it's the code's responsibility to ensure that the lock is released in case of errors.

* Avoid race condition between "GRANT role" and "DROP ROLE".Tom Lane2025-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Concurrently dropping either the granted role or the grantee does not stop GRANT from completing, instead resulting in a dangling role reference in pg_auth_members. That's relatively harmless in the short run, but inconsistent catalog entries are not a good thing. This patch solves the problem by adding the granted and grantee roles as explicit shared dependencies of the pg_auth_members entry. That's a bit indirect, but it works because the pg_shdepend code applies the necessary locking and rechecking. Commit 6566133c5 previously established similar handling for the grantor column of pg_auth_members; it's not clear why it didn't cover the other two role OID columns. A side-effect of this approach is that DROP OWNED BY will now drop pg_auth_members entries that mention the target role as either the granted or grantee role. That's clearly appropriate for the grantee, since we'll drop its other privileges too. It doesn't seem too far out of line for the granted role, since we're presumably about to drop it and besides we're removing all reasons why it'd matter to be a member of it. (One could argue that this makes DropRole's code to auto-drop pg_auth_members entries unnecessary, but I chose to leave it in place since perhaps some people's workflows expect that to work without a DROP OWNED BY.) Note to patch readers: CreateRole's first CommandCounterIncrement call is now unconditional, because this change creates another case in which it's needed, and it seemed to be more trouble than it's worth to preserve that micro-optimization. Arguably this is a bug fix, but the fact that it changes the expected contents of pg_shdepend seems like not a great thing to do in the stable branches, and perhaps we don't want the change in DROP OWNED BY semantics there either. On the other hand, I opted not to force a catversion bump in HEAD, because the presence or absence of these entries doesn't matter for most purposes.

* Allow EXPLAIN to indicate fractional rows.Robert Haas2025-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When nloops > 1, we now display two digits after the decimal point, rather than none. This is important because what we print is actually planstate->instrument->ntuples / nloops, and sometimes what you want to know is planstate->instrument->ntuples. You can estimate that by multiplying the displayed row count by the displayed nloops value, but the fact that the displayed value is rounded makes that inexact. It's still inexact even if we show these two extra decimal places, but less so. Perhaps we will agree on a way to further improve this output later, but for now this seems better than doing nothing.

* Add default_char_signedness field to ControlFileData.Masahiko Sawada2025-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The signedness of the 'char' type in C is implementation-dependent. For instance, 'signed char' is used by default on x86 CPUs, while 'unsigned char' is used on aarch CPUs. Previously, we accidentally let C implementation signedness affect persistent data. This led to inconsistent results when comparing char data across different platforms. This commit introduces a new 'default_char_signedness' field in ControlFileData to store the signedness of the 'char' type. While this change does not encourage the use of 'char' without explicitly specifying its signedness, this field can be used as a hint to ensure consistent behavior for pre-v18 data files that store data sorted by the 'char' type on disk (e.g., GIN and GiST indexes), especially in cross-platform replication scenarios. Newly created database clusters unconditionally set the default char signedness to true. pg_upgrade (with an upcoming commit) changes this flag for clusters if the source database cluster has signedness=false. As a result, signedness=false setting will become rare over time. If we had known about the problem during the last development cycle that forced initdb (v8.3), we would have made all clusters signed or all clusters unsigned. Making pg_upgrade the only source of signedness=false will cause the population of database clusters to converge toward that retrospective ideal. Bump catalog version (for the catalog changes) and PG_CONTROL_VERSION (for the additions in ControlFileData).

* Support text position search functions with nondeterministic collationsPeter Eisentraut2025-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows using text position search functions with nondeterministic collations. These functions are - position, strpos - replace - split_part - string_to_array - string_to_table which all use common internal infrastructure. There was previously no internal implementation of this, so it was met with a not-supported error. This adds the internal implementation and removes the error. Unlike with deterministic collations, the search cannot use any byte-by-byte optimized techniques but has to go substring by substring. We also need to consider that the found match could have a different length than the needle and that there could be substrings of different length matching at a position. In most cases, we need to find the longest such substring (greedy semantics), but this can be configured by each caller.

* Drop opcintype from index AM strategy translation APIPeter Eisentraut2025-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The type argument wasn't actually really necessary. It was a remnant of converting the API of the gist strategy translation from using opclass to using opfamily+opcintype (commits c09e5a6a016, 622f678c102). For looking up the gist translation function, we used the convention "amproclefttype = amprocrighttype = opclass's opcintype" (see pg_amproc.h). But each operator family should only have one translation function, and getting the right type for the lookup is sometimes cumbersome and fragile, so this is all unnecessarily complicated. To simplify this, change the gist stategy support procedure to take "any", "any" as argument. (This is arbitrary but seems intuitive. The alternative of using InvalidOid as argument(s) upsets various DDL commands, so it's not practical.) Then we don't need opcintype for the lookup, and we can remove it from all the API layers introduced by commit c09e5a6a016. This also adds some more documentation about the correct signature of the gist support function and adds more checks in gistvalidate(). This was previously underspecified. (It relied implicitly on convention mentioned above.) Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/E72EAA49-354D-4C2E-8EB9-255197F55330@enterprisedb.com

* Add support for OAUTHBEARER SASL mechanismDaniel Gustafsson2025-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit implements OAUTHBEARER, RFC 7628, and OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grants, RFC 8628. In order to use this there is a new pg_hba auth method called oauth. When speaking to a OAuth- enabled server, it looks a bit like this: $ psql 'host=example.org oauth_issuer=... oauth_client_id=...' Visit https://oauth.example.org/login and enter the code: FPQ2-M4BG Device authorization is currently the only supported flow so the OAuth issuer must support that in order for users to authenticate. Third-party clients may however extend this and provide their own flows. The built-in device authorization flow is currently not supported on Windows. In order for validation to happen server side a new framework for plugging in OAuth validation modules is added. As validation is implementation specific, with no default specified in the standard, PostgreSQL does not ship with one built-in. Each pg_hba entry can specify a specific validator or be left blank for the validator installed as default. This adds a requirement on libcurl for the client side support, which is optional to build, but the server side has no additional build requirements. In order to run the tests, Python is required as this adds a https server written in Python. Tests are gated behind PG_TEST_EXTRA as they open ports. This patch has been a multi-year project with many contributors involved with reviews and in-depth discussions: Michael Paquier, Heikki Linnakangas, Zhihong Yu, Mahendrakar Srinivasarao, Andrey Chudnovsky and Stephen Frost to name a few. While Jacob Champion is the main author there have been some levels of hacking by others.

* Don't lock partitions pruned by initial pruningAmit Langote2025-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before executing a cached generic plan, AcquireExecutorLocks() in plancache.c locks all relations in a plan's range table to ensure the plan is safe for execution. However, this locks runtime-prunable relations that will later be pruned during "initial" runtime pruning, introducing unnecessary overhead. This commit defers locking for such relations to executor startup and ensures that if the CachedPlan is invalidated due to concurrent DDL during this window, replanning is triggered. Deferring these locks avoids unnecessary locking overhead for pruned partitions, resulting in significant speedup, particularly when many partitions are pruned during initial runtime pruning. * Changes to locking when executing generic plans: AcquireExecutorLocks() now locks only unprunable relations, that is, those found in PlannedStmt.unprunableRelids (introduced in commit cbc127917e), to avoid locking runtime-prunable partitions unnecessarily. The remaining locks are taken by ExecDoInitialPruning(), which acquires them only for partitions that survive pruning. This deferral does not affect the locks required for permission checking in InitPlan(), which takes place before initial pruning. ExecCheckPermissions() now includes an Assert to verify that all relations undergoing permission checks, none of which can be in the set of runtime-prunable relations, are properly locked. * Plan invalidation handling: Deferring locks introduces a window where prunable relations may be altered by concurrent DDL, invalidating the plan. A new function, ExecutorStartCachedPlan(), wraps ExecutorStart() to detect and handle invalidation caused by deferred locking. If invalidation occurs, ExecutorStartCachedPlan() updates CachedPlan using the new UpdateCachedPlan() function and retries execution with the updated plan. To ensure all code paths that may be affected by this handle invalidation properly, all callers of ExecutorStart that may execute a PlannedStmt from a CachedPlan have been updated to use ExecutorStartCachedPlan() instead. UpdateCachedPlan() replaces stale plans in CachedPlan.stmt_list. A new CachedPlan.stmt_context, created as a child of CachedPlan.context, allows freeing old PlannedStmts while preserving the CachedPlan structure and its statement list. This ensures that loops over statements in upstream callers of ExecutorStartCachedPlan() remain intact. ExecutorStart() and ExecutorStart_hook implementations now return a boolean value indicating whether plan initialization succeeded with a valid PlanState tree in QueryDesc.planstate, or false otherwise, in which case QueryDesc.planstate is NULL. Hook implementations are required to call standard_ExecutorStart() at the beginning, and if it returns false, they should do the same without proceeding. * Testing: To verify these changes, the delay_execution module tests scenarios where cached plans become invalid due to changes in prunable relations after deferred locks. * Note to extension authors: ExecutorStart_hook implementations must verify plan validity after calling standard_ExecutorStart(), as explained earlier. For example: if (prev_ExecutorStart) plan_valid = prev_ExecutorStart(queryDesc, eflags); else plan_valid = standard_ExecutorStart(queryDesc, eflags); if (!plan_valid) return false; <extension-code> return true; Extensions accessing child relations, especially prunable partitions, via ExecGetRangeTableRelation() must now ensure their RT indexes are present in es_unpruned_relids (introduced in commit cbc127917e), or they will encounter an error. This is a strict requirement after this change, as only relations in that set are locked. The idea of deferring some locks to executor startup, allowing locks for prunable partitions to be skipped, was first proposed by Tom Lane.
