When we are doing GEQO join planning, the current memory context is a
short-lived context that will be reset at the end of geqo_eval(). However,
the RelOptInfos for base relations are set up before that and then re-used
across many GEQO cycles. Hence, any code that modifies a baserel during
join planning has to be careful not to put pointers to the short-lived
context into the baserel struct. mark_dummy_rel got this wrong, leading to
easy-to-reproduce-once-you-know-how crashes in 8.4, as reported off-list by
Leo Carson of SDSC. Some improvements made in 9.0 make it difficult to
demonstrate the crash in 9.0 or HEAD; but there's no doubt that there's
still a risk factor here, so patch all branches that have the function.
(Note: 8.3 has a similar function, but it's only applied to joinrels and
thus is not a hazard.)

In particular, if we don't have real ndistinct estimates for both sides,
fall back to assuming that half of the left-hand rows have join partners.
This is what was done in 8.2 and 8.3 (cf nulltestsel() in those versions).
It's pretty stupid but it won't lead us to think that an antijoin produces
no rows out, as seen in recent example from Uwe Schroeder.

Remove the hard-wired assumption that __mips__ (and only __mips__) lacks
dlopen in FreeBSD and OpenBSD. This assumption is outdated at least for
OpenBSD, as per report from an anonymous 9.1 tester. We can perfectly well
use HAVE_DLOPEN instead to decide which code to use.
Some other cosmetic adjustments to make freebsd.c, netbsd.c, and openbsd.c
exactly alike.

This is a back-patch of commit dcb2bda9b7042dbf43f876c94ebf35d951de10e9 of
Aug 6 2009, which fixed assorted cases in which plpgsql would fail to cope
with composite types that contain any dropped columns. Per discussion,
this fix has been out in 9.0 for long enough to make it improbable that it
creates any new bugs, so this is a low-risk fix. To make it even lower
risk, I did not back-patch the changes in execQual.c, but just accepted
the duplication of code between there and tupconvert.c. The added files
tupconvert.h and tupconvert.c match their current states in HEAD.

Eventually we might be able to allow that, but it's not clear how many
places need to be fixed to prevent infinite recursion when there's a direct
or indirect inclusion of a rowtype in itself. One such place is
CheckAttributeType(), which will recurse to stack overflow in cases such as
those exhibited in bug #5950 from Alex Perepelica. If we were sure it was
the only such place, we could easily modify the code added by this patch to
stop the recursion without a complaint ... but it probably isn't the only
such place. Hence, throw error until such time as someone is excited
enough about this type of usage to put work into making it safe.
Back-patch as far as 8.3. 8.2 doesn't have the recursive call in
CheckAttributeType in the first place, so I see no need to add code there
in the absence of clear evidence of a problem elsewhere.

Opening a catcache's index could require reading from that cache's own
catalog, which of course would acquire AccessShareLock on the catalog.
So the original coding here risks locking index before heap, which could
deadlock against another backend trying to get exclusive locks in the
normal order. Because InitCatCachePhase2 is only called when a backend
has to start up without a relcache init file, the deadlock was seldom seen
in the field. (And by the same token, there's no need to worry about any
performance disadvantage; so not much point in trying to distinguish
exactly which catalogs have the risk.)
Bug report, diagnosis, and patch by Nikhil Sontakke. Additional commentary
by me. Back-patch to all supported branches.

We previously heard of the same problem in int24div(), so there's not a
good reason to suppose the problem is confined to cases involving int8.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Add dummy returns before every potential division-by-zero in int8.c,
because apparently further "improvements" in gcc's optimizer have
enabled it to break functions that weren't broken before.

contains newly-inserted tuples that according to our OldestXmin are not
yet visible to everyone. The value returned by GetOldestXmin() is conservative,
and it can move backwards on repeated calls, so if we see that contradiction
between the PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag and status of tuples on the page, we have to
assume it's because an earlier vacuum calculated a higher OldestXmin value,
and all the tuples really are visible to everyone.
We have received several reports of this bug, with the "PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag
was incorrectly set in relation ..." warning appearing in logs. We were
finally able to hunt it down with David Gould's help to run extra diagnostics
in an environment where this happened frequently.
Also reword the warning, per Robert Haas' suggestion, to not imply that the
PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag is necessarily at fault, as it might also be a symptom
of corruption on a tuple header.
Backpatch to 8.4, where the PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag was introduced.

ExecUpdate checked for whether ExecBRUpdateTriggers had returned a new
tuple value by seeing if the returned tuple was pointer-equal to the old
one. But the "old one" was in estate->es_junkFilter's result slot, which
would be scribbled on if we had done an EvalPlanQual update in response to
a concurrent update of the target tuple; therefore we were comparing a
dangling pointer to a live one. Given the right set of circumstances we
could get a false match, resulting in not forcing the tuple to be stored in
the slot we thought it was stored in. In the case reported by Maxim Boguk
in bug #5798, this led to "cannot extract system attribute from virtual
tuple" failures when trying to do "RETURNING ctid". I believe there is a
very-low-probability chance of more serious errors, such as generating
incorrect index entries based on the original rather than the
trigger-modified version of the row.
In HEAD, change all of ExecBRInsertTriggers, ExecIRInsertTriggers,
ExecBRUpdateTriggers, and ExecIRUpdateTriggers so that they continue to
have similar APIs. In the back branches I just changed
ExecBRUpdateTriggers, since there is no bug in the ExecBRInsertTriggers
case.

ts_typanalyze.c computes MCE statistics as fractions of the non-null rows,
which seems fairly reasonable, and anyway changing it in released versions
wouldn't be a good idea. But then ts_selfuncs.c has to account for that.
Failure to do so results in overestimates in columns with a significant
fraction of null documents. Back-patch to 8.4 where this stuff was
introduced.

Recent releases had a check on rel->rd_refcnt in heap_drop_with_catalog,
but failed to cover the possibility of pending trigger events at DROP time.
(Before 8.4 we didn't even check the refcnt.) When the trigger events were
eventually fired, you'd get "could not open relation with OID nnn" errors,
as in recent report from strk. Better to throw a suitable error when the
DROP is attempted.
Also add a similar check in DROP INDEX.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

reduce_outer_joins() mistakenly treated a semijoin like a left join for
purposes of deciding whether not-null constraints created by the join's
quals could be passed down into the join's left-hand side (possibly
resulting in outer-join simplification there). Actually, semijoin works
like inner join for this purpose, ie, we do not need to see any rows that
can't possibly satisfy the quals. Hence, two-line fix to treat semi and
inner joins alike. Per observation by Andres Freund about a performance
gripe from Yazan Suleiman.
Back-patch to 8.4, since this oversight has been there since the current
handling of semijoins was implemented.

We only need that header when compiling with icc, since the gcc variant of
ia64_get_bsp() uses in-line assembly code. Per report from Frank Brendel,
the header doesn't exist on all IA64 platforms; so don't include it unless
we need it.

If the slice to be assigned to was before the existing array lower bound
(requiring at least one null element to spring into existence to fill the
gap), the code miscalculated how many entries needed to be copied from
the old array's null bitmap. This could result in trashing the array's
data area (as seen in bug #5840 from Karsten Loesing), or worse.
This has been broken since we first allowed the behavior of assigning to
non-adjacent slices, in 8.2. Back-patch to all affected versions.

The "date" type supports a wider range of dates than int64 timestamps do.
However, there is pre-int64-timestamp code in the planner that assumes that
all date values can be converted to timestamp with impunity. Fortunately,
what we really need out of the conversion is always a double (float8)
value; so even when the date is out of timestamp's range it's possible to
produce a sane answer. All we need is a code path that doesn't try to
force the result into int64. Per trouble report from David Rericha.
Back-patch to all supported versions. Although this is surely a corner
case, there's not much point in advertising a date range wider than
timestamp's if we will choke on such values in unexpected places.

eval_const_expressions() can replace CaseTestExprs with constants when
the surrounding CASE's test expression is a constant. This confuses
ruleutils.c's heuristic for deparsing simple-form CASEs, leading to
Assert failures or "unexpected CASE WHEN clause" errors. I had put in
a hack solution for that years ago (see commit
514ce7a331c5bea8e55b106d624e55732a002295 of 2006-10-01), but bug #5794
from Peter Speck shows that that solution failed to cover all cases.
Fortunately, there's a much better way, which came to me upon reflecting
that Peter's "CASE TRUE WHEN" seemed pretty redundant: we can "simplify"
the simple-form CASE to the general form of CASE, by simply omitting the
constant test expression from the rebuilt CASE construct. This is
intuitively valid because there is no need for the executor to evaluate
the test expression at runtime; it will never be referenced, because any
CaseTestExprs that would have referenced it are now replaced by constants.
This won't save a whole lot of cycles, since evaluating a Const is pretty
cheap, but a cycle saved is a cycle earned. In any case it beats kluging
ruleutils.c still further. So this patch improves const-simplification
and reverts the previous change in ruleutils.c.
Back-patch to all supported branches. The bug exists in 8.1 too, but it's
out of warranty.

We don't actually need optreset, because we can easily fix the code to
ensure that it's cleanly restartable after having completed a scan over the
argv array; which is the only case we need to restart in. Getting rid of
it avoids a class of interactions with the system libraries and allows
reversion of my change of yesterday in postmaster.c and postgres.c.

The original coding in tuplestore_trim() was only meant to work efficiently
in cases where each trim call deleted most of the tuples in the store.
Which, in fact, was the pattern of the original usage with a Material node
supporting mark/restore operations underneath a MergeJoin. However,
WindowAgg now uses tuplestores and it has considerably less friendly
trimming behavior. In particular it can attempt to trim one tuple at a
time off a large tuplestore. tuplestore_trim() had O(N^2) runtime in this
situation because of repeatedly shifting its tuple pointer array. Fix by
avoiding shifting the array until a reasonably large number of tuples have
been deleted. This can waste some pointer space, but we do still reclaim
the tuples themselves, so the percentage wastage should be pretty small.
Per Jie Li's report of slow percent_rank() evaluation. cume_dist() and
ntile() would certainly be affected as well, along with any other window
function that has a moving frame start and requires reading substantially
ahead of the current row.
Back-patch to 8.4, where window functions were introduced. There's no
need to tweak it before that.

Recent versions of the Linux system header files cause xlogdefs.h to
believe that open_datasync should be the default sync method, whereas
formerly fdatasync was the default on Linux. open_datasync is a bad
choice, first because it doesn't actually outperform fdatasync (in fact
the reverse), and second because we try to use O_DIRECT with it, causing
failures on certain filesystems (e.g., ext4 with data=journal option).
This part of the patch is largely per a proposal from Marti Raudsepp.
More extensive changes are likely to follow in HEAD, but this is as much
change as we want to back-patch.
Also clean up confusing code and incorrect documentation surrounding the
fsync_writethrough option. Those changes shouldn't result in any actual
behavioral change, but I chose to back-patch them anyway to keep the
branches looking similar in this area.
In 9.0 and HEAD, also do some copy-editing on the WAL Reliability
documentation section.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since any of them might get used
on modern Linux versions.

There are some code paths, such as SPI_execute(), where we invoke
copyObject() on raw parse trees before doing parse analysis on them. Since
the bison grammar is capable of building heavily nested parsetrees while
itself using only minimal stack depth, this means that copyObject() can be
the front-line function that hits stack overflow before anything else does.
Accordingly, it had better have a check_stack_depth() call. I did a bit of
performance testing and found that this slows down copyObject() by only a
few percent, so the hit ought to be negligible in the context of complete
processing of a query.

There were corner cases in which the planner would attempt to inline such
a function, which would result in a failure at runtime due to loss of
information about exactly what the result record type is. Fix by disabling
inlining when the function's recorded result type is RECORD. There might
be some sub-cases where inlining could still be allowed, but this is a
simple and backpatchable fix, so leave refinements for another day.

When using default autovacuum_vac_cost_limit, autovac_balance_cost relied
on VacuumCostLimit to contain the correct global value ... but after the
first time through in a particular worker process, it didn't, because we'd
trashed it in previous iterations. Depending on the state of other autovac
workers, this could result in a steady reduction of the effective
cost_limit setting as a particular worker processed more and more tables,
causing it to go slower and slower. Spotted by Simon Poole (bug #5759).
Fix by saving and restoring the GUC variables in the loop in do_autovacuum.
In passing, improve a few comments.

temporary indexes are not WAL-logged. We used a constant LSN for temporary
indexes, on the assumption that we don't need to worry about concurrent page
splits in temporary indexes because they're only visible to the current
session. But that assumption is wrong, it's possible to insert rows and
split pages in the same session, while a scan is in progress. For example,
by opening a cursor and fetching some rows, and INSERTing new rows before
fetching some more.
Fix by generating fake increasing LSNs, used in place of real LSNs in
temporary GiST indexes.

We must not return any "okay to proceed" result code without having checked

certainly produce a similar symptom.

Once we have found a non-null constant argument, there is no need to
examine additional arguments of the COALESCE. The previous coding got it
right only if the constant was in the first argument position; otherwise
it tried to simplify following arguments too, leading to unexpected
behavior like this:
regression=# select coalesce(f1, 42, 1/0) from int4_tbl;
ERROR: division by zero
It's a minor corner case, but a bug is a bug, so back-patch all the way.

This code was just plain wrong: what you got was not a line through the
given point but a line almost indistinguishable from the Y-axis, although
not truly vertical. The only caller that tries to use this function with
m == DBL_MAX is dist_ps_internal for the case where the lseg is horizontal;
it would end up producing the distance from the given point to the place
where the lseg's line crosses the Y-axis. That function is used by other
operators too, so there are several operators that could compute wrong
distances from a line segment to something else. Per bug #5745 from
jindiax.

The general design of memory management in Postgres is that intermediate
results computed by an expression are not freed until the end of the tuple
cycle. For expression indexes, ANALYZE has to re-evaluate each expression
for each of its sample rows, and it wasn't bothering to free intermediate
results until the end of processing of that index. This could lead to very
substantial leakage if the intermediate results were large, as in a recent
example from Jakub Ouhrabka. Fix by doing ResetExprContext for each sample
row. This necessitates adding a datumCopy step to ensure that the final
expression value isn't recycled too. Some quick testing suggests that this
change adds at worst about 10% to the time needed to analyze a table with
an expression index; which is annoying, but seems a tolerable price to pay
to avoid unexpected out-of-memory problems.

length stored in the line pointer the same way it's calculated in the normal
heap_insert() codepath. As noted by Jeff Davis, the length stored by
raw_heap_insert() included padding but the one stored by the normal codepath
did not. While the mismatch seems to be harmless, inconsistency isn't good,
and the normal codepath has received a lot more testing over the years.

The original coding in FileClose() reset the file-is-temp flag before
unlinking the file, so that if control came back through due to an error,
it wouldn't try to unlink the file twice. This was correct when written,
but when the log_temp_files feature was added, the logging action was put
in between those two steps. An error occurring during the logging action
--- such as a query cancel --- would result in the unlink not getting done
at all, as in recent report from Michael Glaesemann.
To fix this, make sure that we do both the stat and the unlink before doing
anything that could conceivably CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS. There is a judgment
call here, which is which log message to emit first: if you can see only
one, which should it be? I chose to log unlink failure at the risk of
losing the log_temp_files log message --- after all, if the unlink does
fail, the temp file is still there for you to see.
Back-patch to all versions that have log_temp_files. The code was OK
before that.

It was reporting that these were fully indexed (hence cheap), when of

We failed to record any dependency on the underlying table for an index
declared like "create index i on t (foo(t.*))". This would create trouble
if the table were dropped without previously dropping the index. To fix,
simplify some overly-cute code in index_create(), accepting the possibility
that sometimes the whole-table dependency will be redundant. Also document
this hazard in dependency.c. Per report from Kevin Grittner.
In passing, prevent a core dump in pg_get_indexdef() if the index's table
can't be found. I came across this while experimenting with Kevin's
example. Not sure it's a real issue when the catalogs aren't corrupt, but
might as well be cautious.

The original coding was quite sloppy about handling the case where
XLogReadBuffer fails (because the page has since been deleted). This
would result in either "bad buffer id: 0" or an Assert failure during
replay, if indeed the page were no longer there. In a couple of places
it also neglected to check whether the change had already been applied,
which would probably result in corrupted index contents. I believe that
bug #5703 is an instance of the first problem. These issues could show up
without replication, but only if you were unfortunate enough to crash
between modification of a GIN index and the next checkpoint.
Back-patch to 8.2, which is as far back as GIN has WAL support.

In versions 8.2 and up, the grammar allows attaching ORDER BY, LIMIT,
FOR UPDATE, or WITH to VALUES, and hence to INSERT ... VALUES. But the
special-case code for VALUES in transformInsertStmt() wasn't expecting any
of those, and just ignored them, leading to unexpected results. Rather
than complicate the special-case path, just ensure that the presence of any
of those clauses makes us treat the query as if it had a general SELECT.

The point of a PlaceHolderVar is to allow a non-strict expression to be
evaluated below an outer join, after which its value bubbles up like a Var
and can be forced to NULL when the outer join's semantics require that.
However, there was a serious design oversight in that, namely that we
didn't ensure that there was actually a correct place in the plan tree
to evaluate the placeholder :-(. It may be necessary to delay evaluation
of an outer join to ensure that a placeholder that should be evaluated
below the join can be evaluated there. Per recent bug report from Kirill
Simonov.

on an output of a sub-SELECT. So extend the check logic to be able to recurse
into a sub-SELECT to see if the argument is ultimately coming from an
appropriate column. Per report from Thomas Kellerer.

hasn't been set.
The only known case where this can happen is when show_session_authorization
is invoked in an autovacuum process, which is possible if an index function
calls it, as for example in bug #5669 from Andrew Geery. We could perhaps
try to return a sensible value, such as the name of the cluster-owning
superuser; but that seems like much more trouble than the case is worth,
and in any case it could create new possible failure modes. Simply
returning an empty string seems like the most appropriate fix.
Back-patch to all supported versions, even those before autovacuum, just
in case there's another way to provoke this crash.
