* Improve FSM management for BRIN indexes.Tom Lane2018-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | BRIN indexes like to propagate additions of free space into the upper pages of their free space maps as soon as the new space is known, even when it's just on one individual index page. Previously this required calling FreeSpaceMapVacuum, which is quite an expensive thing if the map is large. Use the FreeSpaceMapVacuumRange function recently added by commit c79f6df75 to reduce the amount of work done for this purpose. Fix a couple of places that neglected to do the upper-page vacuuming at all after recording new free space. If the policy is to be that BRIN should do that, it should do it everywhere. Do RecordPageWithFreeSpace unconditionally in brin_page_cleanup, and do FreeSpaceMapVacuum unconditionally in brin_vacuum_scan. Because of the FSM's imprecise storage of free space, the old complications here seldom bought anything, they just slowed things down. This approach also provides a predictable path for FSM corruption to be repaired. Remove premature RecordPageWithFreeSpace call in brin_getinsertbuffer where it's about to return an extended page to the caller. The caller should do that, instead, after it's inserted its new tuple. Fix the one caller that forgot to do so. Simplify logic in brin_doupdate's same-page-update case by postponing brin_initialize_empty_new_buffer to after the critical section; I see little point in doing it before. Avoid repeat calls of RelationGetNumberOfBlocks in brin_vacuum_scan. Avoid duplicate BufferGetBlockNumber and BufferGetPage calls in a couple of places where we already had the right values. Move a BRIN_elog debug logging call out of a critical section; that's pretty unsafe and I don't think it buys us anything to not wait till after the critical section. Move the "*extended = false" step in brin_getinsertbuffer into the routine's main loop. There's no actual bug there, since the loop can't iterate with *extended still true, but it doesn't seem very future-proof as coded; and it's certainly not documented as a loop invariant. This is all from follow-on investigation inspired by commit c79f6df75. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5801.1522429460@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Skip full index scan during cleanup of B-tree indexes when possibleTeodor Sigaev2018-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vacuum of index consists from two stages: multiple (zero of more) ambulkdelete calls and one amvacuumcleanup call. When workload on particular table is append-only, then autovacuum isn't intended to touch this table. However, user may run vacuum manually in order to fill visibility map and get benefits of index-only scans. Then ambulkdelete wouldn't be called for indexes of such table (because no heap tuples were deleted), only amvacuumcleanup would be called In this case, amvacuumcleanup would perform full index scan for two objectives: put recyclable pages into free space map and update index statistics. This patch allows btvacuumclanup to skip full index scan when two conditions are satisfied: no pages are going to be put into free space map and index statistics isn't stalled. In order to check first condition, we store oldest btpo_xact in the meta-page. When it's precedes RecentGlobalXmin, then there are some recyclable pages. In order to check second condition we store number of heap tuples observed during previous full index scan by cleanup. If fraction of newly inserted tuples is less than vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor, then statistics isn't considered to be stalled. vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor can be defined as both reloption and GUC (default). This patch bumps B-tree meta-page version. Upgrade of meta-page is performed "on the fly": during VACUUM meta-page is rewritten with new version. No special handling in pg_upgrade is required.

* Don't clone internal triggers to partitionsAlvaro Herrera2018-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trigger cloning to partitions was supposed to occur for user-visible triggers only, but during development the protection that prevented it from occurring to internal triggers was lost. Reinstate it, as well as add a test case to ensure internal triggers (in the tested case, triggers implementing a deferred unique constraint) are not cloned. Without the code fix, the partitions in the test end up with different numbers of triggers, which is clearly wrong ... Bug in 86f575948c77.

* Prevent accidental linking of system-supplied copies of libpq.so etc.Tom Lane2018-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were being careless in some places about the order of -L switches in link command lines, such that -L switches referring to external directories could come before those referring to directories within the build tree. This made it possible to accidentally link a system-supplied library, for example /usr/lib/libpq.so, in place of the one built in the build tree. Hilarity ensued, the more so the older the system-supplied library is. To fix, break LDFLAGS into two parts, a sub-variable LDFLAGS_INTERNAL and the main LDFLAGS variable, both of which are "recursively expanded" so that they can be incrementally adjusted by different makefiles. Establish a policy that -L switches for directories in the build tree must always be added to LDFLAGS_INTERNAL, while -L switches for external directories must always be added to LDFLAGS. This is sufficient to ensure a safe search order. For simplicity, we typically also put -l switches for the respective libraries into those same variables. (Traditional make usage would have us put -l switches into LIBS, but cleaning that up is a project for another day, as there's no clear need for it.) This turns out to also require separating SHLIB_LINK into two variables, SHLIB_LINK and SHLIB_LINK_INTERNAL, with a similar rule about which switches go into which variable. And likewise for PG_LIBS. Although this change might appear to affect external users of pgxs.mk, I think it doesn't; they shouldn't have any need to touch the _INTERNAL variables. In passing, tweak src/common/Makefile so that the value of CPPFLAGS recorded in pg_config lacks "-DFRONTEND" and the recorded value of LDFLAGS lacks "-L../../../src/common". Both of those things are mistakes, apparently introduced during prior code rearrangements, as old versions of pg_config don't print them. In general we don't want anything that's specific to the src/common subdirectory to appear in those outputs. This is certainly a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field complaints, I'm unsure whether it's worth the risk of back-patching. In any case it seems wise to see what the buildfarm makes of it first. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/25214.1522604295@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Fix some dubious WAL-parsing code.Tom Lane2018-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | Coverity complained about possible buffer overrun in two places added by commit 1eb6d6527, and AFAICS it's reasonable to worry: even granting that the WAL originator properly truncated the commit GID to GIDSIZE, we should not really bet our lives on that having the same value as it does in the current build. Hence, use strlcpy() not strcpy(), and adjust the pointer advancement logic to be sure we skip over the whole source string even if strlcpy() truncated it.
* Make be-secure-common.c more consistent for future SSL implementationsPeter Eisentraut2018-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent commit 8a3d9425 has introduced be-secure-common.c, which is aimed at including backend-side APIs that can be used by any SSL implementation. The purpose is similar to fe-secure-common.c for the frontend-side APIs. However, this has forgotten to include check_ssl_key_file_permissions() in the move, which causes a double dependency between be-secure.c and be-secure-openssl.c. Refactor the code in a more logical way. This also puts into light an API which is usable by future SSL implementations for permissions on SSL key files. Author: Michael Paquier <michael@paquier.xyz>
* postgres_fdw: Push down partition-wise aggregation.Robert Haas2018-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 7012b132d07c2b4ea15b0b3cb1ea9f3278801d98, postgres_fdw has been able to push down the toplevel aggregation operation to the remote server. Commit e2f1eb0ee30d144628ab523432320f174a2c8966 made it possible to break down the toplevel aggregation into one aggregate per partition. This commit lets postgres_fdw push down aggregation in that case just as it does at the top level. In order to make this work, this commit adds an additional argument to the GetForeignUpperPaths FDW API. A matching argument is added to the signature for create_upper_paths_hook. Third-party code using either of these will need to be updated. Also adjust create_foreignscan_plan() so that it picks up the correct set of relids in this case.

* Add Bloom filter implementation.Andres Freund2018-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A Bloom filter is a space-efficient, probabilistic data structure that can be used to test set membership. Callers will sometimes incur false positives, but never false negatives. The rate of false positives is a function of the total number of elements and the amount of memory available for the Bloom filter. Two classic applications of Bloom filters are cache filtering, and data synchronization testing. Any user of Bloom filters must accept the possibility of false positives as a cost worth paying for the benefit in space efficiency. This commit adds a test harness extension module, test_bloomfilter. It can be used to get a sense of how the Bloom filter implementation performs under varying conditions. This is infrastructure for the upcoming "heapallindexed" amcheck patch, which verifies the consistency of a heap relation against one of its indexes.

It immediately closes the relation then uses the returned view info by calling LockViewRecurse_walker(). Since get_view_query() returns a pointer within the relcache, the relcache should be kept until LockViewRecurse_walker() returns. Otherwise the relation could point to a garbage memory area. Fix is moving the heap_close() call after LockViewRecurse_walker().

Since commits 638cf09e and 73c986ad increased the number of segment files slru.c could manage, that behavior is unnecessary. Therefore remove that code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the target context's name to the errdetail field of "out of memory" errors in mcxt.c. Per discussion, this seems likely to be useful to help narrow down the cause of a reported failure, and it costs little. Also, now that context names are required to be compile-time constants in all cases, there's little reason to be concerned about security issues from exposing these names to users. (Because of such concerns, we are *not* including the context "ident" field.) In passing, add unlikely() markers to the allocation-failed tests, just to be sure the compiler is on the right page about that. Also, in palloc and friends, copy CurrentMemoryContext into a local variable, as that's almost surely cheaper to reference than a global. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1099.1522285628@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Do index FSM vacuuming sooner.Tom Lane2018-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In btree and SP-GiST indexes, move the responsibility for calling IndexFreeSpaceMapVacuum from the vacuumcleanup phase to the bulkdelete phase, and do it if and only if we found some pages that could be put into FSM. As in commit 851a26e26, the idea is to make free pages visible to FSM searchers sooner when vacuuming very large tables (large enough to need multiple bulkdelete scans). This adds more redundant work than that commit did, since we have to scan the entire index FSM each time rather than being able to localize what needs to be updated; but it still seems worthwhile. However, we can buy something back by not touching the FSM at all when there are no pages that can be put in it. That will result in slower recovery from corrupt upper FSM pages in such a scenario, but it doesn't seem like that's a case we need to optimize for. Hash indexes don't use FSM at all. GIN, GiST, and bloom indexes update FSM during the vacuumcleanup phase not bulkdelete, so that doing something comparable to this would be a much more invasive change, and it's not clear it's worth it. BRIN indexes do things sufficiently differently that this change doesn't apply to them, either.

* Predicate locking in GIN indexTeodor Sigaev2018-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | Predicate locks are used on per page basis only if fastupdate = off, in opposite case predicate lock on pending list will effectively lock whole index, to reduce locking overhead, just lock a relation. Entry and posting trees are essentially B-tree, so locks are acquired on leaf pages only.

* Rewrite the code that applies scan/join targets to paths.Robert Haas2018-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the toplevel scan/join target list is parallel-safe, postpone generating Gather (or Gather Merge) paths until after the toplevel has been adjusted to return it. This (correctly) makes queries with expensive functions in the target list more likely to choose a parallel plan, since the cost of the plan now reflects the fact that the evaluation will happen in the workers rather than the leader. The original complaint about this problem was from Jeff Janes. If the toplevel scan/join relation is partitioned, recursively apply the changes to all partitions. This sometimes allows us to get rid of Result nodes, because Append is not projection-capable but its children may be. It also cleans up what appears to be incorrect SRF handling from commit e2f1eb0ee30d144628ab523432320f174a2c8966: the old code had no knowledge of SRFs for child scan/join rels. Because we now use create_projection_path() in some cases where we formerly used apply_projection_to_path(), this changes the ordering of columns in some queries generated by postgres_fdw. Update regression outputs accordingly. Patch by me, reviewed by Amit Kapila and by Ashutosh Bapat. Other fixes for this problem (substantially different from this version) were reviewed by Dilip Kumar, Amit Khandekar, and Marina Polyakova.

* Postpone generate_gather_paths for topmost scan/join rel.Robert Haas2018-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't call generate_gather_paths for the topmost scan/join relation when it is initially populated with paths. Instead, do the work in grouping_planner. By itself, this gains nothing; in fact it loses slightly because we end up calling set_cheapest() for the topmost scan/join rel twice rather than once. However, it paves the way for a future commit which will postpone generate_gather_paths for the topmost scan/join relation even further, allowing more accurate costing of parallel paths.

* Teach create_projection_plan to omit projection where possible.Robert Haas2018-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We sometimes insert a ProjectionPath into a plan tree when projection is not strictly required. The existing code already arranges to avoid emitting a Result node when the ProjectionPath's subpath can perform the projection itself, but previously it didn't consider the possibility that the parent node might not actually require the projection to be performed at all. Skipping projection when it's not required can not only avoid Result nodes that aren't needed, but also avoid losing the "physical tlist" optimization unneccessarily.
