* Add GUC to enable logging of replication commands.Fujii Masao2014-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously replication commands like IDENTIFY_COMMAND were not logged even when log_statements is set to all. Some users who want to audit all types of statements were not satisfied with this situation. To address the problem, this commit adds new GUC log_replication_commands. If it's enabled, all replication commands are logged in the server log. There are many ways to allow us to enable that logging. For example, we can extend log_statement so that replication commands are logged when it's set to all. But per discussion in the community, we reached the consensus to add separate GUC for that.

* Fix GIN data page split ratio calculation.Heikki Linnakangas2014-09-12
| | | | | | | | | | The code that tried to split a page at 75/25 ratio, when appending to the end of an index, was buggy in two ways. First, there was a silly typo that caused it to just fill the left page as full as possible. But the logic as it was intended wasn't correct either, and would actually have given a ratio closer to 60/40 than 75/25. Gaetano Mendola spotted the typo. Backpatch to 9.4, where this code was added.
* Fix power_var_int() for large integer exponents.Tom Lane2014-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code for raising a NUMERIC value to an integer power wasn't very careful about large powers. It got an outright wrong answer for an exponent of INT_MIN, due to failure to consider overflow of the Abs(exp) operation; which is fixable by using an unsigned rather than signed exponent value after that point. Also, even though the number of iterations of the power-computation loop is pretty limited, it's easy for the repeated squarings to result in ridiculously enormous intermediate values, which can take unreasonable amounts of time/memory to process, or even overflow the internal "weight" field and so produce a wrong answer. We can forestall misbehaviors of that sort by bailing out as soon as the weight value exceeds what will fit in int16, since then the final answer must overflow (if exp > 0) or underflow (if exp < 0) the packed numeric format. Per off-list report from Pavel Stehule. Back-patch to all supported branches.
* Add 'ignore_nulls' option to row_to_jsonStephen Frost2014-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide an option to skip NULL values in a row when generating a JSON object from that row with row_to_json. This can reduce the size of the JSON object in cases where columns are NULL without really reducing the information in the JSON object. This also makes row_to_json into a single function with default values, rather than having multiple functions. In passing, change array_to_json to also be a single function with default values (we don't add an 'ignore_nulls' option yet- it's not clear that there is a sensible use-case there, and it hasn't been asked for in any case).

* Pack tuples in a hash join batch densely, to save memory.Heikki Linnakangas2014-09-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of palloc'ing each HashJoinTuple individually, allocate 32kB chunks and pack the tuples densely in the chunks. This avoids the AllocChunk header overhead, and the space wasted by standard allocator's habit of rounding sizes up to the nearest power of two. This doesn't contain any planner changes, because the planner's estimate of memory usage ignores the palloc overhead. Now that the overhead is smaller, the planner's estimates are in fact more accurate. Tomas Vondra, reviewed by Robert Haas.
* Preserve AND/OR flatness while extracting restriction OR clauses.Tom Lane2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | The code I added in commit f343a880d5555faf1dad0286c5632047c8f599ad was careless about preserving AND/OR flatness: it could create a structure with an OR node directly underneath another one. That breaks an assumption that's fairly important for planning efficiency, not to mention triggering various Asserts (as reported by Benjamin Smith). Add a trifle more logic to handle the case properly.
* Change the spinlock primitives to function as compiler barriers.Robert Haas2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, they functioned as barriers against CPU reordering but not compiler reordering, an odd API that required extensive use of volatile everywhere that spinlocks are used. That's error-prone and has negative implications for performance, so change it. In theory, this makes it safe to remove many of the uses of volatile that we currently have in our code base, but we may find that there are some bugs in this effort when we do. In the long run, though, this should make for much more maintainable code. Patch by me. Review by Andres Freund.
* Add width_bucket(anyelement, anyarray).Tom Lane2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | This provides a convenient method of classifying input values into buckets that are not necessarily equal-width. It works on any sortable data type. The choice of function name is a bit debatable, perhaps, but showing that there's a relationship to the SQL standard's width_bucket() function seems more attractive than the other proposals.

* Allow empty content in xml typePeter Eisentraut2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | The xml type previously rejected "content" that is empty or consists only of spaces. But the SQL/XML standard allows that, so change that. The accepted values for XML "documents" are not changed. Reviewed-by: Ali Akbar <the.apaan@gmail.com>
* Move ALTER ... ALL IN to ProcessUtilitySlowStephen Frost2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that ALTER TABLE .. ALL IN TABLESPACE has replaced the previous ALTER TABLESPACE approach, it makes sense to move the calls down in to ProcessUtilitySlow where the rest of ALTER TABLE is handled. This also means that event triggers will support ALTER TABLE .. ALL (which was the impetus for the original change, though it has other good qualities also). Álvaro Herrera Back-patch to 9.4 as the original rework was.
* Fix spinlock implementation for some !solaris sparc platforms.Andres Freund2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some Sparc CPUs can be run in various coherence models, ranging from RMO (relaxed) over PSO (partial) to TSO (total). Solaris has always run CPUs in TSO mode while in userland, but linux didn't use to and the various *BSDs still don't. Unfortunately the sparc TAS/S_UNLOCK were only correct under TSO. Fix that by adding the necessary memory barrier instructions. On sparcv8+, which should be all relevant CPUs, these are treated as NOPs if the current consistency model doesn't require the barriers. Discussion: 20140630222854.GW26930@awork2.anarazel.de Will be backpatched to all released branches once a few buildfarm cycles haven't shown up problems. As I've no access to sparc, this is blindly written.

* Refactor per-page logic common to all redo routines to a new function.Heikki Linnakangas2014-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | Every redo routine uses the same idiom to determine what to do to a page: check if there's a backup block for it, and if not read, the buffer if the block exists, and check its LSN. Refactor that into a common function, XLogReadBufferForRedo, making all the redo routines shorter and more readable. This has no user-visible effect, and makes no changes to the WAL format.

* Declare lwlock.c's LWLockAcquireCommon() as a static inline.Andres Freund2014-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | 68a2e52bbaf98f136 has introduced LWLockAcquireCommon() containing the previous contents of LWLockAcquire() plus added functionality. The latter then calls it, just like LWLockAcquireWithVar(). Because the majority of callers don't need the added functionality, declare the common code as inline. The compiler then can optimize away the unused code. Doing so is also useful when looking at profiles, to differentiate the users. Backpatch to 9.4, the first branch to contain LWLockAcquireCommon().

* Make backend local tracking of buffer pins memory efficient.Andres Freund2014-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the dawn of time (aka Postgres95) multiple pins of the same buffer by one backend have been optimized not to modify the shared refcount more than once. This optimization has always used a NBuffer sized array in each backend keeping track of a backend's pins. That array (PrivateRefCount) was one of the biggest per-backend memory allocations, depending on the shared_buffers setting. Besides the waste of memory it also has proven to be a performance bottleneck when assertions are enabled as we make sure that there's no remaining pins left at the end of transactions. Also, on servers with lots of memory and a correspondingly high shared_buffers setting the amount of random memory accesses can also lead to poor cpu cache efficiency. Because of these reasons a backend's buffers pins are now kept track of in a small statically sized array that overflows into a hash table when necessary. Benchmarks have shown neutral to positive performance results with considerably lower memory usage. Patch by me, review by Robert Haas. Discussion: 20140321182231.GA17111@alap3.anarazel.de

* Revert "Allow units to be specified in relation option setting value."Fujii Masao2014-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit e23014f3d40f7d2c23bc97207fd28efbe5ba102b. As the side effect of the reverted commit, when the unit is specified, the reloption was stored in the catalog with the unit. This broke pg_dump (specifically, it prevented pg_dump from outputting restorable backup regarding the reloption) and turned the buildfarm red. Revert the commit until the fixed version is ready.
* Allow escaping of option values for options passed at connection start.Andres Freund2014-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is useful to allow to set GUCs to values that include spaces; something that wasn't previously possible. The primary case motivating this is the desire to set default_transaction_isolation to 'repeatable read' on a per connection basis, but other usecases like seach_path do also exist. This introduces a slight backward incompatibility: Previously a \ in an option value would have been passed on literally, now it'll be taken as an escape. The relevant mailing list discussion starts with 20140204125823.GJ12016@awork2.anarazel.de.
* Allow units to be specified in relation option setting value.Fujii Masao2014-08-28

* Fix FOR UPDATE NOWAIT on updated tuple chainsAlvaro Herrera2014-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If SELECT FOR UPDATE NOWAIT tries to lock a tuple that is concurrently being updated, it might fail to honor its NOWAIT specification and block instead of raising an error. Fix by adding a no-wait flag to EvalPlanQualFetch which it can pass down to heap_lock_tuple; also use it in EvalPlanQualFetch itself to avoid blocking while waiting for a concurrent transaction. Authors: Craig Ringer and Thomas Munro, tweaked by Álvaro http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/51FB6703.9090801@2ndquadrant.com Per Thomas Munro in the course of his SKIP LOCKED feature submission, who also provided one of the isolation test specs. Backpatch to 9.4, because that's as far back as it applies without conflicts (although the bug goes all the way back). To that branch also backpatch Thomas Munro's new NOWAIT test cases, committed in master by Heikki as commit 9ee16b49f0aac819bd4823d9b94485ef608b34e8 .
* Fix Var handling for security barrier viewsStephen Frost2014-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases, not all Vars were being correctly marked as having been modified for updatable security barrier views, which resulted in invalid plans (eg: when security barrier views were created over top of inheiritance structures). In passing, be sure to update both varattno and varonattno, as _equalVar won't consider the Vars identical otherwise. This isn't known to cause any issues with updatable security barrier views, but was noticed as missing while working on RLS and makes sense to get fixed. Back-patch to 9.4 where updatable security barrier views were introduced.

* Revert XactLockTableWait context setup in conditional multixact waitAlvaro Herrera2014-08-25
| | | | | | | | | There's no point in setting up a context error callback when doing conditional lock acquisition, because we never actually wait and so the user wouldn't be able to see the context message anywhere.
