* Relocate static function declarations to be after typedefs in jsonfuncs.c.Tom Lane2017-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | Project style is to put things in this order, for the good and sufficient reason that you often need the typedefs in the function declarations. There already was one function declaration that needed a typedef, which was randomly placed away from all the other static function declarations in consequence. And the submitted patch for better json_populate_record functionality jumped through even more hoops in order to preserve this bad idea. This patch only moves lines from point A to point B, no other changes.

* Avoid useless respawining the autovacuum launcher at high speed.Robert Haas2017-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When (1) autovacuum = off and (2) there's at least one database with an XID age greater than autovacuum_freeze_max_age and (3) all tables in that database that need vacuuming are already being processed by a worker and (4) the autovacuum launcher is started, a kind of infinite loop occurs. The launcher starts a worker and immediately exits. The worker, finding no worker to do, immediately starts the launcher, supposedly so that the next database can be processed. But because datfrozenxid for that database hasn't been advanced yet, the new worker gets put right back into the same database as the old one, where it once again starts the launcher and exits. High-speed ping pong ensues. There are several possible ways to break the cycle; this seems like the safest one. Amit Khandekar (code) and Robert Haas (comments), reviewed by Álvaro Herrera.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | pgoutput evidently needs to be built without -DBUILDING_DLL.

But right now is not the time to redesign that.) Also, remove "override CPPFLAGS" in pgoutput's Makefile. I don't think that that actually has any bad consequences, but it's certainly useless in a directory that has no .h files, and it might be contributing to the failure somehow. Per buildfarm.

* Fix race condition in reading commit timestampsAlvaro Herrera2017-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a user requests the commit timestamp for a transaction old enough that its data is concurrently being truncated away by vacuum at just the right time, they would receive an ugly internal file-not-found error message from slru.c rather than the expected NULL return value. In a primary server, the window for the race is very small: the lookup has to occur exactly between the two calls by vacuum, and there's not a lot that happens between them (mostly just a multixact truncate). In a standby server, however, the window is larger because the truncation is executed as soon as the WAL record for it is replayed, but the advance of the oldest-Xid is not executed until the next checkpoint record. To fix in the primary, simply reverse the order of operations in vac_truncate_clog. To fix in the standby, augment the WAL truncation record so that the standby is aware of the new oldest-XID value and can apply the update immediately. WAL version bumped because of this. No backpatch, because of the low importance of the bug and its rarity.

* Fix failure to enforce partitioning contraint for internal partitions.Robert Haas2017-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When a tuple is inherited into a partitioning root, no partition constraints need to be enforced; when it is inserted into a leaf, the parent's partitioning quals needed to be enforced. The previous coding got both of those cases right. When a tuple is inserted into an intermediate level of the partitioning hierarchy (i.e. a table which is both a partition itself and in turn partitioned), it must enforce the partitioning qual inherited from its parent. That case got overlooked; repair. Amit Langote

* Move targetlist SRF handling from expression evaluation to new executor node.Andres Freund2017-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Evaluation of set returning functions (SRFs_ in the targetlist (like SELECT generate_series(1,5)) so far was done in the expression evaluation (i.e. ExecEvalExpr()) and projection (i.e. ExecProject/ExecTargetList) code. This meant that most executor nodes performing projection, and most expression evaluation functions, had to deal with the possibility that an evaluated expression could return a set of return values. That's bad because it leads to repeated code in a lot of places. It also, and that's my (Andres's) motivation, made it a lot harder to implement a more efficient way of doing expression evaluation. To fix this, introduce a new executor node (ProjectSet) that can evaluate targetlists containing one or more SRFs. To avoid the complexity of the old way of handling nested expressions returning sets (e.g. having to pass up ExprDoneCond, and dealing with arguments to functions returning sets etc.), those SRFs can only be at the top level of the node's targetlist. The planner makes sure (via split_pathtarget_at_srfs()) that SRF evaluation is only necessary in ProjectSet nodes and that SRFs are only present at the top level of the node's targetlist. If there are nested SRFs the planner creates multiple stacked ProjectSet nodes. The ProjectSet nodes always get input from an underlying node. We also discussed and prototyped evaluating targetlist SRFs using ROWS FROM(), but that turned out to be more complicated than we'd hoped. While moving SRF evaluation to ProjectSet would allow to retain the old "least common multiple" behavior when multiple SRFs are present in one targetlist (i.e. continue returning rows until all SRFs are at the end of their input at the same time), we decided to instead only return rows till all SRFs are exhausted, returning NULL for already exhausted ones. We deemed the previous behavior to be too confusing, unexpected and actually not particularly useful. As a side effect, the previously prohibited case of multiple set returning arguments to a function, is now allowed. Not because it's particularly desirable, but because it ends up working and there seems to be no argument for adding code to prohibit it. Currently the behavior for COALESCE and CASE containing SRFs has changed, returning multiple rows from the expression, even when the SRF containing "arm" of the expression is not evaluated. That's because the SRFs are evaluated in a separate ProjectSet node. As that's quite confusing, we're likely to instead prohibit SRFs in those places. But that's still being discussed, and the code would reside in places not touched here, so that's a task for later. There's a lot of, now superfluous, code dealing with set return expressions around. But as the changes to get rid of those are verbose largely boring, it seems better for readability to keep the cleanup as a separate commit.

* Disable transforms that replaced AT TIME ZONE with RelabelType.Tom Lane2017-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These resulted in wrong answers if the relabeled argument could be matched to an index column, as shown in bug #14504 from Evgeniy Kozlov. We might be able to resurrect these optimizations by adjusting the planner's treatment of RelabelType, or by adjusting btree's rules for selecting comparison functions, but either solution will take careful analysis and does not sound like a fit candidate for backpatching. I left the catalog infrastructure in place and just reduced the transform functions to always-return-NULL.

* Improve RLS planning by marking individual quals with security levels.Tom Lane2017-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In an RLS query, we must ensure that security filter quals are evaluated before ordinary query quals, in case the latter contain "leaky" functions that could expose the contents of sensitive rows. The original implementation of RLS planning ensured this by pushing the scan of a secured table into a sub-query that it marked as a security-barrier view. Unfortunately this results in very inefficient plans in many cases, because the sub-query cannot be flattened and gets planned independently of the rest of the query. To fix, drop the use of sub-queries to enforce RLS qual order, and instead mark each qual (RestrictInfo) with a security_level field establishing its priority for evaluation. Quals must be evaluated in security_level order, except that "leakproof" quals can be allowed to go ahead of quals of lower security_level, if it's helpful to do so. This has to be enforced within the ordering of any one list of quals to be evaluated at a table scan node, and we also have to ensure that quals are not chosen for early evaluation (i.e., use as an index qual or TID scan qual) if they're not allowed to go ahead of other quals at the scan node. This is sufficient to fix the problem for RLS quals, since we only support RLS policies on simple tables and thus RLS quals will always exist at the table scan level only. Eventually these qual ordering rules should be enforced for join quals as well, which would permit improving planning for explicit security-barrier views; but that's a task for another patch. Note that FDWs would need to be aware of these rules --- and not, for example, send an insecure qual for remote execution --- but since we do not yet allow RLS policies on foreign tables, the case doesn't arise. This will need to be addressed before we can allow such policies. Patch by me, reviewed by Stephen Frost and Dean Rasheed. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8185.1477432701@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Fix check_srf_call_placement() to handle VALUES cases correctly.Tom Lane2017-01-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | INSERT ... VALUES with a single VALUES row is implemented quite differently from the general VALUES case. A user-visible implication of that is that we accept SRFs in the single-row case, but not in the multi-row case. That's a historical artifact no doubt, but in view of the lack of field complaints, I'm not excited about fixing it right now. However, check_srf_call_placement() needs to know about this, first because it should throw an error in the unsupported case, and second because it should set p_hasTargetSRFs in the single-row case (because we treat that like a SELECT tlist). That's an oversight in commit a4c35ea1c. To fix, split EXPR_KIND_VALUES into two values.

* Change representation of statement lists, and add statement location info.Tom Lane2017-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes several changes that improve the consistency of representation of lists of statements. It's always been the case that the output of parse analysis is a list of Query nodes, whatever the types of the individual statements in the list. This patch brings similar consistency to the outputs of raw parsing and planning steps: * The output of raw parsing is now always a list of RawStmt nodes; the statement-type-dependent nodes are one level down from that. * The output of pg_plan_queries() is now always a list of PlannedStmt nodes, even for utility statements. In the case of a utility statement, "planning" just consists of wrapping a CMD_UTILITY PlannedStmt around the utility node. This list representation is now used in Portal and CachedPlan plan lists, replacing the former convention of intermixing PlannedStmts with bare utility-statement nodes. Now, every list of statements has a consistent head-node type depending on how far along it is in processing. This allows changing many places that formerly used generic "Node *" pointers to use a more specific pointer type, thus reducing the number of IsA() tests and casts needed, as well as improving code clarity. Also, the post-parse-analysis representation of DECLARE CURSOR is changed so that it looks more like EXPLAIN, PREPARE, etc. That is, the contained SELECT remains a child of the DeclareCursorStmt rather than getting flipped around to be the other way. It's now true for both Query and PlannedStmt that utilityStmt is non-null if and only if commandType is CMD_UTILITY. That allows simplifying a lot of places that were testing both fields. (I think some of those were just defensive programming, but in many places, it was actually necessary to avoid confusing DECLARE CURSOR with SELECT.) Because PlannedStmt carries a canSetTag field, we're also able to get rid of some ad-hoc rules about how to reconstruct canSetTag for a bare utility statement; specifically, the assumption that a utility is canSetTag if and only if it's the only one in its list. While I see no near-term need for relaxing that restriction, it's nice to get rid of the ad-hocery. The API of ProcessUtility() is changed so that what it's passed is the wrapper PlannedStmt not just the bare utility statement. This will affect all users of ProcessUtility_hook, but the changes are pretty trivial; see the affected contrib modules for examples of the minimum change needed. (Most compilers should give pointer-type-mismatch warnings for uncorrected code.) There's also a change in the API of ExplainOneQuery_hook, to pass through cursorOptions instead of expecting hook functions to know what to pick. This is needed because of the DECLARE CURSOR changes, but really should have been done in 9.6; it's unlikely that any extant hook functions know about using CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK. Finally, teach gram.y to save statement boundary locations in RawStmt nodes, and pass those through to Query and PlannedStmt nodes. This allows more intelligent handling of cases where a source query string contains multiple statements. This patch doesn't actually do anything with the information, but a follow-on patch will. (Passing this information through cleanly is the true motivation for these changes; while I think this is all good cleanup, it's unlikely we'd have bothered without this end goal.) catversion bump because addition of location fields to struct Query affects stored rules. This patch is by me, but it owes a good deal to Fabien Coelho who did a lot of preliminary work on the problem, and also reviewed the patch.

* Fix a bug in how we generate partition constraints.Robert Haas2017-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the code for doing parent attnos to child attnos mapping for Vars in partition constraint expressions to a separate function map_partition_varattnos() and call it from the appropriate places. Doing it in get_qual_from_partbound(), as is now, would produce wrong result in certain multi-level partitioning cases, because it only considers the current pair of parent-child relations. In certain multi-level partitioning cases, attnums for the same key attribute(s) might differ between various levels causing the same attribute to be numbered differently in different instances of the Var corresponding to a given attribute. With this commit, in generate_partition_qual(), we first generate the the whole partition constraint (considering all levels of partitioning) and then do the mapping, so that Vars in the final expression are numbered according the leaf relation (to which it is supposed to apply).

* Fix cardinality estimates for parallel joins.Robert Haas2017-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a partial path, the cardinality estimate needs to reflect the number of rows we think each worker will see, rather than the total number of rows; otherwise, costing will go wrong. The previous coding got this completely wrong for parallel joins. Unfortunately, this change may destabilize plans for users of 9.6 who have enabled parallel query, but since 9.6 is still fairly new I'm hoping expectations won't be too settled yet. Also, this is really a brown-paper-bag bug, so leaving it unfixed for the entire lifetime of 9.6 seems unwise.

* Improve coding in _hash_addovflpage.Robert Haas2017-01-10

* Fix ALTER TABLE / SET TYPE for irregular inheritanceAlvaro Herrera2017-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If inherited tables don't have exactly the same schema, the USING clause in an ALTER TABLE / SET DATA TYPE misbehaves when applied to the children tables since commit 9550e8348b79. Starting with that commit, the attribute numbers in the USING expression are fixed during parse analysis. This can lead to bogus errors being reported during execution, such as: ERROR: attribute 2 has wrong type DETAIL: Table has type smallint, but query expects integer. Since it wouldn't do to revert to the original coding, we now apply a transformation to map the attribute numbers to the correct ones for each child. Reported by Justin Pryzby Analysis by Tom Lane; patch by me. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170102225618.GA10071@telsasoft.com
* BRIN revmap pages are not standard pages ...Alvaro Herrera2017-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ... and therefore we ought not to tell XLogRegisterBuffer the opposite, when writing XLog for a brin update that moves the index tuple to a different page. Otherwise, xlog insertion would try to "compress the hole" when producing a full-page image for it; but since we don't update pd_lower/upper, the hole covers the whole page. On WAL replay, the revmap page becomes empty and so the entire portion of the index is useless and needs to be recomputed. This is low-probability: a BRIN update only moves an index tuple to a different page when the summary tuple is larger than the existing one, which doesn't happen with fixed-width datatypes. Also, the revmap page must be first after a checkpoint. Report and patch: Kuntal Ghosh Bug is alleged to have detected by a WAL-consistency-checking tool. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAGz5QCJ=00UQjScSEFbV=0qO5ShTZB9WWz_Fm7+Wd83zPs9Geg@mail.gmail.com I posted a test case demonstrating the problem, but I'm refraining from adding it to the test suite; if the WAL consistency tool makes it in, that will be a better way to catch this from regressing. (We should definitely have someting that causes not-same-page updates, though.)
