* Stop bgworkers during fast shutdown with postmaster in startup phaseMichael Paquier2018-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a postmaster gets into its phase PM_STARTUP, it would start background workers using BgWorkerStart_PostmasterStart mode immediately, which would cause problems for a fast shutdown as the postmaster forgets to send SIGTERM to already-started background workers. With smart and immediate shutdowns, this correctly happened, and fast shutdown is the only mode missing the shot.

* Avoid quadratic slowdown in regexp match/split functions.Andrew Gierth2018-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | regexp_matches, regexp_split_to_table and regexp_split_to_array all work by compiling a list of match positions as character offsets (NOT byte positions) in the source string. Formerly, they then used text_substr to extract the matched text; but in a multi-byte encoding, that counts the characters in the string, and the characters needed to reach the starting byte position, on every call. Accordingly, the performance degraded as the product of the input string length and the number of match positions, such that splitting a string of a few hundred kbytes could take many minutes. Repair by keeping the wide-character copy of the input string available (only in the case where encoding_max_length is not 1) after performing the match operation, and extracting substrings from that instead. This reduces the complexity to being linear in the number of result bytes, discounting the actual regexp match itself (which is not affected by this patch). In passing, remove cleanup using retail pfree() which was obsoleted by commit ff428cded (Feb 2008) which made cleanup of SRF multi-call contexts automatic. Also increase (to ~134 million) the maximum number of matches and provide an error message when it is reached. Backpatch all the way because this has been wrong forever.

* Fix snapshot leak warning for some proceduresPeter Eisentraut2018-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem arises with the combination of CALL with output parameters and doing a COMMIT inside the procedure. When a CALL has output parameters, the portal uses the strategy PORTAL_UTIL_SELECT instead of PORTAL_MULTI_QUERY. Using PORTAL_UTIL_SELECT causes the portal's snapshot to be registered with the current resource owner (portal->holdSnapshot); see 9ee1cf04ab6bcefe03a11837b53f29ca9dc24c7a for the reason. Normally, PortalDrop() unregisters the snapshot. If not, then ResourceOwnerRelease() will print a warning about a snapshot leak on transaction commit. A transaction commit normally drops all portals (PreCommit_Portals()), except the active portal. So in case of the active portal, we need to manually release the snapshot to avoid the warning.

* Make syslogger more robust against failures in opening CSV log files.Tom Lane2018-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding figured it'd be good enough to postpone opening the first CSV log file until we got a message we needed to write there. This is unsafe, though, because if the open fails we end up in infinite recursion trying to report the failure. Instead make the CSV log file management code look as nearly as possible like the longstanding logic for the stderr log file. In particular, open it immediately at postmaster startup (if enabled), or when we get a SIGHUP in which we find that log_destination has been changed to enable CSV logging. It seems OK to fail if a postmaster-start-time open attempt fails, as we've long done for the stderr log file. But we can't die if we fail to open a CSV log file during SIGHUP, so we're still left with a problem. In that case, write any output meant for the CSV log file to the stderr log file. (This will also cover race-condition cases in which backends send CSV log data before or after we have the CSV log file open.) This patch also fixes an ancient oversight that, if CSV logging was turned off during a SIGHUP, we never actually closed the last CSV log file. In passing, remember to reset whereToSendOutput = DestNone during syslogger start, since (unlike all other postmaster children) it's forked before the postmaster has done that. This made for a platform-dependent difference in error reporting behavior between the syslogger and other children: except on Windows, it'd report problems to the original postmaster stderr as well as the normal error log file(s). It's barely possible that that was intentional at some point; but it doesn't seem likely to be desirable in production, and the platform dependency definitely isn't desirable. Per report from Alexander Kukushkin. It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix lexing of standard multi-character operators in edge cases.Andrew Gierth2018-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commits c6b3c939b (which fixed the precedence of >=, <=, <> operators) and 865f14a2d (which added support for the standard => notation for named arguments) created a class of lexer tokens which look like multi-character operators but which have their own token IDs distinct from Op. However, longest-match rules meant that following any of these tokens with another operator character, as in (1<>-1), would cause them to be incorrectly returned as Op. The error here isn't immediately obvious, because the parser would usually still find the correct operator via the Op token, but there were more subtle problems: 1. If immediately followed by a comment or +-, >= <= <> would be given the old precedence of Op rather than the correct new precedence; 2. If followed by a comment, != would be returned as Op rather than as NOT_EQUAL, causing it not to be found at all; 3. If followed by a comment or +-, the => token for named arguments would be lexed as Op, causing the argument to be mis-parsed as a simple expression, usually causing an error. Fix by explicitly checking for the operators in the {operator} code block in addition to all the existing special cases there. Backpatch to 9.5 where the problem was introduced.

* Reduce an unnecessary O(N^3) loop in lexer.Andrew Gierth2018-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | The lexer's handling of operators contained an O(N^3) hazard when dealing with long strings of + or - characters; it seems hard to prevent this case from being O(N^2), but the additional N multiplier was not needed. Backpatch all the way since this has been there since 7.x, and it presents at least a mild hazard in that trying to do Bind, PREPARE or EXPLAIN on a hostile query could take excessive time (without honouring cancels or timeouts) even if the query was never executed.

* Update FSM on WAL replay of page all-visible/frozenAlvaro Herrera2018-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We aren't very strict about keeping FSM up to date on WAL replay, because per-page freespace values aren't critical in replicas (can't write to heap in a replica; and if the replica is promoted, the values would be updated by VACUUM anyway). However, VACUUM since 9.6 can skip processing pages marked all-visible or all-frozen, and if such pages are recorded in FSM with wrong values, those values are blindly propagated to FSM's upper layers by VACUUM's FreeSpaceMapVacuum. (This rationale assumes that crashes are not very frequent, because those would cause outdated FSM to occur in the primary.) Even when the FSM is outdated in standby, things are not too bad normally, because, most per-page FSM values will be zero (other than those propagated with the base-backup that created the standby); only once the remaining free space is less than 0.2*BLCKSZ the per-page value is maintained by WAL replay of heap ins/upd/del. However, if wal_log_hints=on causes complete FSM pages to be propagated to a standby via full-page images, many too-optimistic per-page values can end up being registered in the standby. Incorrect per-page values aren't critical in most cases, since an inserter that is given a page that doesn't actually contain the claimed free space will update FSM with the correct value, and retry until it finds a usable page. However, if there are many such updates to do, an inserter can spend a long time doing them before a usable page is found; in a heavily trafficked insert-only table with many concurrent inserters this has been observed to cause several second stalls, causing visible application malfunction. To fix this problem, it seems sufficient to have heap_xlog_visible (replay of setting all-visible and all-frozen VM bits for a heap page) update the FSM value for the page being processed. This fixes the per-page counters together with making the page skippable to vacuum, so when vacuum does FreeSpaceMapVacuum, the values propagated to FSM upper layers are the correct ones, avoiding the problem. While at it, apply the same fix to heap_xlog_clean (replay of tuple removal by HOT pruning and vacuum). This makes any space freed by the cleaning available earlier than the next vacuum in the promoted replica. Backpatch to 9.6, where this problem was diagnosed on an insert-only table with all-frozen pages, which were introduced as a concept in that release. Theoretically it could apply with all-visible pages to older branches, but there's been no report of that and it doesn't backpatch cleanly anyway.

* Clean up assorted misuses of snprintf()'s result value.Tom Lane2018-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a small number of places that were testing the result of snprintf() but doing so incorrectly. The right test for buffer overrun, per C99, is "result >= bufsize" not "result > bufsize". Some places were also checking for failure with "result == -1", but the standard only says that a negative value is delivered on failure. (Note that this only makes these places correct if snprintf() delivers C99-compliant results. But at least now these places are consistent with all the other places where we assume that.) Also, make psql_start_test() and isolation_start_test() check for buffer overrun while constructing their shell commands. There seems like a higher risk of overrun, with more severe consequences, here than there is for the individual file paths that are made elsewhere in the same functions, so this seemed like a worthwhile change. Also fix guc.c's do_serialize() to initialize errno = 0 before calling vsnprintf. In principle, this should be unnecessary because vsnprintf should have set errno if it returns a failure indication ... but the other two places this coding pattern is cribbed from don't assume that, so let's be consistent. These errors are all very old, so back-patch as appropriate. I think that only the shell command overrun cases are even theoretically reachable in practice, but there's not much point in erroneous error checks.

* Make autovacuum more aggressive to remove orphaned temp tablesMichael Paquier2018-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit dafa084, added in 10, made the removal of temporary orphaned tables more aggressive. This commit makes an extra step into the aggressiveness by adding a flag in each backend's MyProc which tracks down any temporary namespace currently in use. The flag is set when the namespace gets created and can be reset if the temporary namespace has been created in a transaction or sub-transaction which is aborted. The flag value assignment is assumed to be atomic, so this can be done in a lock-less fashion like other flags already present in PGPROC like databaseId or backendId, still the fact that the temporary namespace and table created are still locked until the transaction creating those commits acts as a barrier for other backends. This new flag gets used by autovacuum to discard more aggressively orphaned tables by additionally checking for the database a backend is connected to as well as its temporary namespace in-use, removing orphaned temporary relations even if a backend reuses the same slot as one which created temporary relations in a past session.

* Handle parallel index builds on mapped relations.Peter Geoghegan2018-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9da0cc35284, which introduced parallel CREATE INDEX, failed to propagate relmapper.c backend local cache state to parallel worker processes. This could result in parallel index builds against mapped catalog relations where the leader process (participating as a worker) scans the new, pristine relfilenode, while worker processes scan the obsolescent relfilenode. When this happened, the final index structure was typically not consistent with the owning table's structure. The final index structure could contain entries formed from both heap relfilenodes. Only rebuilds on mapped catalog relations that occur as part of a VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER could become corrupt in practice, since their mapped relation relfilenode swap is what allows the inconsistency to arise. On master, fix the problem by propagating the required relmapper.c backend state as part of standard parallel initialization (Cf. commit 29d58fd3). On v11, simply disallow builds against mapped catalog relations by deeming them parallel unsafe.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 1c2cb2744 added some code that tried to detect whether two RelOptInfos were the "same" rel by pointer comparison; but it turns out that inheritance_planner breaks that, through its shenanigans with copying some relations forward into new subproblems. Compare relid sets instead. Add a regression test case to exercise this area. Problem reported by Rushabh Lathia; diagnosis and fix by Amit Langote, modified a bit by me.

* Don't record FDW user mappings as members of extensions.Tom Lane2018-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CreateUserMapping has a recordDependencyOnCurrentExtension call that's been there since extensions were introduced (very possibly my fault). However, there's no support anywhere else for user mappings as members of extensions, nor are they listed as a possible member object type in the documentation. Nor does it really seem like a good idea for user mappings to belong to extensions when roles don't. Hence, remove the bogus call. (As we saw in bug #15310, the lack of any pg_dump support for this case ensures that any such membership record would silently disappear during pg_upgrade. So there's probably no need for us to do anything else about cleaning up after this mistake.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/27952.1533667213@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Fix incorrect initialization of BackendActivityBuffer.Tom Lane2018-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit c8e8b5a6e, this has been zeroed out using the wrong length. In practice the length would always be too small, leading to not zeroing the whole buffer rather than clobbering additional memory; and that's pretty harmless, both because shmem would likely start out as zeroes and because we'd reinitialize any given entry before use. Still, it's bogus, so fix it. Reported by Petru-Florin Mihancea (bug #15312) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/153363913073.1303.6518849192351268091@wrigleys.postgresql.org

* Remove support for tls-unique channel binding.Heikki Linnakangas2018-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some problems with the tls-unique channel binding type. It's not supported by all SSL libraries, and strictly speaking it's not defined for TLS 1.3 at all, even though at least in OpenSSL, the functions used for it still seem to work with TLS 1.3 connections. And since we had no mechanism to negotiate what channel binding type to use, there would be awkward interoperability issues if a server only supported some channel binding types. tls-server-end-point seems feasible to support with any SSL library, so let's just stick to that. This removes the scram_channel_binding libpq option altogether, since there is now only one supported channel binding type. This also removes all the channel binding tests from the SSL test suite. They were really just testing the scram_channel_binding option, which is now gone. Channel binding is used if both client and server support it, so it is used in the existing tests. It would be good to have some tests specifically for channel binding, to make sure it really is used, and the different combinations of a client and a server that support or doesn't support it. The current set of settings we have make it hard to write such tests, but I did test those things manually, by disabling HAVE_BE_TLS_GET_CERTIFICATE_HASH and/or HAVE_PGTLS_GET_PEER_CERTIFICATE_HASH. I also removed the SCRAM_CHANNEL_BINDING_TLS_END_POINT constant. This is a matter of taste, but IMO it's more readable to just use the "tls-server-end-point" string. Refactor the checks on whether the SSL library supports the functions needed for tls-server-end-point channel binding. Now the server won't advertise, and the client won't choose, the SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS variant, if compiled with an OpenSSL version too old to support it. In the passing, add some sanity checks to check that the chosen SASL mechanism, SCRAM-SHA-256 or SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS, matches whether the SCRAM exchange used channel binding or not. For example, if the client selects the non-channel-binding variant SCRAM-SHA-256, but in the SCRAM message uses channel binding anyway. It's harmless from a security point of view, I believe, and I'm not sure if there are some other conditions that would cause the connection to fail, but it seems better to be strict about these things and check explicitly.

* Fix INSERT ON CONFLICT UPDATE through a view that isn't just SELECT *.Tom Lane2018-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When expanding an updatable view that is an INSERT's target, the rewriter failed to rewrite Vars in the ON CONFLICT UPDATE clause. This accidentally worked if the view was just "SELECT * FROM ...", as the transformation would be a no-op in that case. With more complicated view targetlists, this omission would often lead to "attribute ... has the wrong type" errors or even crashes, as reported by Mario De Frutos Dieguez. Fix by adding code to rewriteTargetView to fix up the data structure correctly. The easiest way to update the exclRelTlist list is to rebuild it from scratch looking at the new target relation, so factor the code for that out of transformOnConflictClause to make it sharable. In passing, avoid duplicate permissions checks against the EXCLUDED pseudo-relation, and prevent useless view expansion of that relation's dummy RTE. The latter is only known to happen (after this patch) in cases where the query would fail later due to not having any INSTEAD OF triggers for the view. But by exactly that token, it would create an unintended and very poorly tested state of the query data structure, so it seems like a good idea to prevent it from happening at all. This has been broken since ON CONFLICT was introduced, so back-patch to 9.5.

* Add table relcache invalidation to index builds.Peter Geoghegan2018-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's necessary to make sure that owning tables have a relcache invalidation prior to advancing the command counter to make newly-entered catalog tuples for the index visible. inval.c must be able to maintain the consistency of the local caches in the event of transaction abort. There is usually only a problem when CREATE INDEX transactions abort, since there is a generic invalidation once we reach index_update_stats(). This bug is of long standing. Problems were made much more likely by the addition of parallel CREATE INDEX (commit 9da0cc35284), but it is strongly suspected that similar problems can be triggered without involving plan_create_index_workers(). (plan_create_index_workers() triggers a relcache build or rebuild, which previously only happened in rare edge cases.)

* Fix buffer usage stats for parallel nodes.Amit Kapila2018-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The buffer usage stats is accounted only for the execution phase of the node. For Gather and Gather Merge nodes, such stats are accumulated at the time of shutdown of workers which is done after execution of node due to which we missed to account them for such nodes. Fix it by treating nodes as running while we shut down them. We can also miss accounting for a Limit node when Gather or Gather Merge is beneath it, because it can finish the execution before shutting down such nodes. So we allow a Limit node to shut down the resources before it completes the execution. In the passing fix the gather node code to allow workers to shut down as soon as we find that all the tuples from the workers have been retrieved. The original code use to do that, but is accidently removed by commit 01edb5c7fc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | In the leader backend, we don't track the buffer usage for ExecutorStart phase whereas in worker backend we track it for ExecutorStart phase as well. This leads to different value for buffer usage stats for the parallel and non-parallel query. Change the code so that worker backend also starts tracking buffer usage after ExecutorStart.

* Fix run-time partition pruning for appends with multiple source rels.Tom Lane2018-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding here supposed that if run-time partitioning applied to a particular Append/MergeAppend plan, then all child plans of that node must be members of a single partitioning hierarchy. This is totally wrong, since an Append could be formed from a UNION ALL: we could have multiple hierarchies sharing the same Append, or child plans that aren't part of any hierarchy. To fix, restructure the related plan-time and execution-time data structures so that we can have a separate list or array for each partitioning hierarchy. Also track subplans that are not part of any hierarchy, and make sure they don't get pruned. Per reports from Phil Florent and others. Back-patch to v11, since the bug originated there. David Rowley, with a lot of cosmetic adjustments by me; thanks also to Amit Langote for review.

* Fix logical replication slot initializationAlvaro Herrera2018-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was broken in commit 9c7d06d60680, which inadvertently gave the wrong value to fast_forward in one StartupDecodingContext call. Fix by flipping the value. Add a test for the obvious error, namely trying to initialize a replication slot with an nonexistent output plugin. While at it, move the CreateDecodingContext call earlier, so that any errors are reported before sending the CopyBoth message.
