* Fix typo in eb68379c3.Andres Freund2015-04-09
| | | | | | | | I'd accidentally missed to rename PG_FORCE_NULL to BKI_FORCE_NULL in one place. Author: Jeevan Chalke Discussion: CAM2+6=VPoow5PqgqiTjPX4QNeokb7op8aD_8Zg3QnHZMvvU0GQ@mail.gmail.com
* Remove obsolete FORCE option from REINDEX.Fujii Masao2015-04-09
| | | | | | FORCE option has been marked "obsolete" since very old version 7.4 but existed for backwards compatibility. Per discussion on pgsql-hackers, we concluded that it's no longer worth keeping supporting the option.
* Change SQLSTATE for event triggers "wrong context" messageAlvaro Herrera2015-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When certain event-trigger-only functions are called when not in the wrong context, they were reporting the "feature not supported" SQLSTATE, which is somewhat misleading. Create a new custom error code for such uses instead. Not backpatched since it may be seen as an undesirable behavioral change.

* Fix autovacuum launcher shutdown sequenceAlvaro Herrera2015-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was previously possible to have the launcher re-execute its main loop before shutting down if some other signal was received or an error occurred after getting SIGTERM, as reported by Qingqing Zhou. While investigating, Tom Lane further noticed that if autovacuum had been disabled in the config file, it would misbehave by trying to start a new worker instead of bailing out immediately -- it would consider itself as invoked in emergency mode. Fix both problems by checking the shutdown flag in a few more places. These problems have existed since autovacuum was introduced, so backpatch all the way back.

* Make trace_sort control abbreviation debug output for the text opclass.Robert Haas2015-04-07

* Remove variable shadowingAlvaro Herrera2015-04-07
| | | | | | Commit a2e35b53 should have removed the variable declaration in the inner block, but didn't. As a result, the returned address might end up not being what was intended.
* pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects: add is_temp columnAlvaro Herrera2015-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | It now also reports temporary objects dropped that are local to the backend. Previously we weren't reporting any temp objects because it was deemed unnecessary; but as it turns out, it is necessary if we want to keep close track of DDL command execution inside one session. Temp objects are reported as living in schema pg_temp, which works because such a schema-qualification always refers to the temp objects of the current session.
* Fix object identities for pg_conversion objectsAlvaro Herrera2015-04-06

* Fix incorrect matching of subexpressions in outer-join plan nodes.Tom Lane2015-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we would re-use input subexpressions in all expression trees attached to a Join plan node. However, if it's an outer join and the subexpression appears in the nullable-side input, this is potentially incorrect for apparently-matching subexpressions that came from above the outer join (ie, targetlist and qpqual expressions), because the executor will treat the subexpression value as NULL when maybe it should not be. The case is fairly hard to hit because (a) you need a non-strict subexpression (else NULL is correct), and (b) we don't usually compute expressions in the outputs of non-toplevel plan nodes. But we might do so if the expressions are sort keys for a mergejoin, for example. Probably in the long run we should make a more explicit distinction between Vars appearing above and below an outer join, but that will be a major planner redesign and not at all back-patchable. For the moment, just hack set_join_references so that it will not match any non-Var expressions coming from nullable inputs to expressions that came from above the join. (This is somewhat overkill, in that a strict expression could still be matched, but it doesn't seem worth the effort to check that.) Per report from Qingqing Zhou. The added regression test case is based on his example. This has been broken for a very long time, so back-patch to all active branches.
* Fix numeric abbreviation for --disable-float8-byval.Robert Haas2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | When committing abd94bcac4582903765be7be959d1dbc121df0d0, I tried to make it decide what kind of abbreviation to use based only on SIZEOF_DATUM, without regard to USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL. That attempt was a few bricks short of a load, so try to fix it, and add a comment explaining what we're about. Patch by me; review (but not a full endorsement) by Andrew Gierth.
* Remove unnecessary variables in _hash_splitbucket().Tom Lane2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | Commit ed9cc2b5df59fdbc50cce37399e26b03ab2c1686 made it unnecessary to pass start_nblkno to _hash_splitbucket(), and for that matter unnecessary to have the internal nblkno variable either. My compiler didn't complain about that, but some did. I also rearranged the use of oblkno a bit to make that case more parallel. Report and initial patch by Petr Jelinek, rearranged a bit by me. Back-patch to all branches, like the previous patch.
* Transform ALTER TABLE/SET TYPE/USING expr during parse analysisAlvaro Herrera2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This lets later stages have access to the transformed expression; in particular it allows DDL-deparsing code during event triggers to pass the transformed expression to ruleutils.c, so that the complete command can be deparsed. This shuffles the timing of the transform calls a bit: previously, nothing was transformed during parse analysis, and only the RELKIND_RELATION case was being handled during execution. After this patch, all expressions are transformed during parse analysis (including those for relkinds other than RELATION), and the error for other relation kinds is thrown only during execution. So we do more work than before to reject some bogus cases. That seems acceptable.

* Fix error handling of XLogReaderAllocate in case of OOMFujii Masao2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | Similarly to previous fix 9b8d478, commit 2c03216 has switched XLogReaderAllocate() to use a set of palloc calls instead of malloc, causing any callers of this function to fail with an error instead of receiving a NULL pointer in case of out-of-memory error. Fix this by using palloc_extended with MCXT_ALLOC_NO_OOM that will safely return NULL in case of an OOM. Michael Paquier, slightly modified by me.
* Change the way we decide whether to give up on abbreviated text keys.Robert Haas2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | Be more aggressive about aborting early on if it looks like it's not helping, but be less aggressive about aborting later on, since it's more expensive at that point, and also since we're currently aborting in some cases where abbreviation can still deliver a substantial win. Peter Geoghegan. Extensive testing by Tomas Vondra.
* Rework handling of OOM when allocating record buffer in XLOG reader.Fujii Masao2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | Commit 2c03216 changed allocate_recordbuf() so that it uses a palloc to allocate the read buffer and fails immediately when an out-of-memory error shows up, even though its callers still expect that NULL is returned in that case. This bug is fixed making allocate_recordbuf() use a palloc_extended with MCXT_ALLOC_NO_OOM flag and return NULL in OOM case. Michael Paquier
* Add palloc_extended for frontend and backend.Fujii Masao2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | This commit also adds pg_malloc_extended for frontend. These interfaces can be used to control at a lower level memory allocation using an interface similar to MemoryContextAllocExtended. For example, the callers can specify MCXT_ALLOC_NO_OOM if they want to suppress the "out of memory" error while allocating the memory and handle a NULL return value. Michael Paquier, reviewed by me.
* Fix rare startup failure induced by MVCC-catalog-scans patch.Tom Lane2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While a new backend nominally participates in sinval signaling starting from the SharedInvalBackendInit call near the top of InitPostgres, it cannot recognize sinval messages for unshared catalogs of its database until it has set up MyDatabaseId. This is not problematic for the catcache or relcache, which by definition won't have loaded any data from or about such catalogs before that point. However, commit 568d4138c646cd7c introduced a mechanism for re-using MVCC snapshots for catalog scans, and made invalidation of those depend on recognizing relevant sinval messages. So it's possible to establish a catalog snapshot to read pg_authid and pg_database, then before we set MyDatabaseId, receive sinval messages that should result in invalidating that snapshot --- but do not, because we don't realize they are for our database. This mechanism explains the intermittent buildfarm failures we've seen since commit 31eae6028eca4365. That commit was not itself at fault, but it introduced a new regression test that does reconnections concurrently with the "vacuum full pg_am" command in vacuum.sql. This allowed the pre-existing error to be exposed, given just the right timing, because we'd fail to update our information about how to access pg_am. In principle any VACUUM FULL on a system catalog could have created a similar hazard for concurrent incoming connections. Perhaps there are more subtle failure cases as well. To fix, force invalidation of the catalog snapshot as soon as we've set MyDatabaseId. Back-patch to 9.4 where the error was introduced.

* autovacuum: Fix polarity of "wraparound" variableAlvaro Herrera2015-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | Commit 0d831389749a3 inadvertently reversed the meaning of the wraparound variable. This causes vacuums which are not required for wraparound to wait for locks to be acquired, and what is worse, it allows wraparound vacuums to skip locked pages.

* Define integer limits independently from the system definitions.Andres Freund2015-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 83ff1618 we defined integer limits iff they're not provided by the system. That turns out not to be the greatest idea because there's different ways some datatypes can be represented. E.g. on OSX PG's 64bit datatype will be a 'long int', but OSX unconditionally uses 'long long'. That disparity then can lead to warnings, e.g. around printf formats. One way to fix that would be to back int64 using stdint.h's int64_t. While a good idea it's not that easy to implement. We would e.g. need to include stdint.h in our external headers, which we don't today. Also computing the correct int64 printf formats in that case is nontrivial. Instead simply prefix the integer limits with PG_ and define them unconditionally. I've adjusted all the references to them in code, but not the ones in comments; the latter seems unnecessary to me.

* Provide real selectivity estimators for inet/cidr operators.Tom Lane2015-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fills in the formerly-stub networksel() and networkjoinsel() estimation functions. Those are used for << <<= >> >>= and && operators on inet/cidr types. The estimation is not perfect, certainly, because we rely on the existing statistics collected for the inet btree operators. But it's a long way better than nothing, and it's not clear that asking ANALYZE to collect separate stats for these operators would be a win.

* Fix bogus concurrent use of _hash_getnewbuf() in bucket split code.Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _hash_splitbucket() obtained the base page of the new bucket by calling _hash_getnewbuf(), but it held no exclusive lock that would prevent some other process from calling _hash_getnewbuf() at the same time. This is contrary to _hash_getnewbuf()'s API spec and could in fact cause failures. In practice, we must only call that function while holding write lock on the hash index's metapage. An additional problem was that we'd already modified the metapage's bucket mapping data, meaning that failure to extend the index would leave us with a corrupt index. Fix both issues by moving the _hash_getnewbuf() call to just before we modify the metapage in _hash_expandtable(). Unfortunately there's still a large problem here, which is that we could also incur ENOSPC while trying to get an overflow page for the new bucket. That would leave the index corrupt in a more subtle way, namely that some index tuples that should be in the new bucket might still be in the old one. Fixing that seems substantially more difficult; even preallocating as many pages as we could possibly need wouldn't entirely guarantee that the bucket split would complete successfully. So for today let's just deal with the base case. Per report from Antonin Houska. Back-patch to all active branches.
* Change array_offset to return subscripts, not offsetsAlvaro Herrera2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ... and rename it and its sibling array_offsets to array_position and array_positions, to account for the changed behavior. Having the functions return subscripts better matches existing practice, and is better suited to using the result value as a subscript into the array directly. For one-based arrays, the new definition is identical to what was originally committed. (We use the term "subscript" in the documentation, which is what we use whenever we talk about arrays; but the functions themselves are named using the word "position" to match the standard-defined POSITION() functions.) Author: Pavel Stěhule Behavioral problem noted by Dean Rasheed.
* Fix lost persistence setting during REINDEX INDEXAlvaro Herrera2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ReindexIndex() trusts a parser-built RangeVar with the persistence to use for the new copy of the index; but the parser naturally does not know what's the persistence of the original index. To find out the correct persistence, grab it from relcache. This bug was introduced by commit 85b506bbfc2937c9, and therefore no backpatch is necessary. Bug reported by Thom Brown, analysis and patch by Michael Paquier; test case provided by Fabrízio de Royes Mello.
* Be more careful about printing constants in ruleutils.c.Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding in get_const_expr() tried to avoid quoting integer, float, and numeric literals if at all possible. While that looks nice, it means that dumped expressions might re-parse to something that's semantically equivalent but not the exact same parsetree; for example a FLOAT8 constant would re-parse as a NUMERIC constant with a cast to FLOAT8. Though the result would be the same after constant-folding, this is problematic in certain contexts. In particular, Jeff Davis pointed out that this could cause unexpected failures in ALTER INHERIT operations because of child tables having not-exactly-equivalent CHECK expressions. Therefore, favor correctness over legibility and dump such constants in quotes except in the limited cases where they'll be interpreted as the same type even without any casting. This results in assorted small changes in the regression test outputs, and will affect display of user-defined views and rules similarly. The odds of that causing problems in the field seem non-negligible; given the lack of previous complaints, it seems best not to change this in the back branches.
* Fix rare core dump in BackendIdGetTransactionIds().Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | BackendIdGetTransactionIds() neglected the possibility that the PROC pointer in a ProcState array entry is null. In current usage, this could only crash if the other backend had exited since pgstat_read_current_status saw it as active, which is a pretty narrow window. But it's reachable in the field, per bug #12918 from Vladimir Borodin. Back-patch to 9.4 where the faulty code was introduced.

* Add vacuum_delay_point call in compute_index_stats's per-sample-row loop.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | | | | | Slow functions in index expressions might cause this loop to take long enough to make it worth being cancellable. Probably it would be enough to call CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS here, but for consistency with other per-sample-row loops in this file, let's use vacuum_delay_point. Report and patch by Jeff Janes. Back-patch to all supported branches.
* Make ginbuild's funcCtx be independent of its tmpCtx.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | Previously the funcCtx was a child of the tmpCtx, but that was broken by commit eaa5808e8ec4e82ce1a87103a6b6f687666e4e4c, which made MemoryContextReset() delete, not reset, child contexts. The behavior of having a tmpCtx reset also clear the other context seems rather dubious anyway, so let's just disentangle them. Per report from Erik Rijkers. In passing, fix badly-inaccurate comments about these contexts.

* Fix GiST index-only scans for opclasses with different storage type.Heikki Linnakangas2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | We cannot use the index's tuple descriptor directly to describe the index tuples returned in an index-only scan. That's because the index might use a different datatype for the values stored on disk than the type originally indexed. As long as they were both pass-by-ref, it worked, but will not work for pass-by-value types of different sizes. I noticed this as a crash when I started hacking a patch to add fetch methods to btree_gist.
* Tweak __attribute__-wrapping macros for better pgindent results.Tom Lane2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This improves on commit bbfd7edae5aa5ad5553d3c7e102f2e450d4380d4 by making two simple changes: * pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn(). Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed(). This reduces pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them. * attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not definitions. Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts, which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent but often were outright wrong anyway. (It does little good to put a noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.) In any case, if we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns. I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
* Add support for index-only scans in GiST.Heikki Linnakangas2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new GiST opclass method, 'fetch', which is used to reconstruct the original Datum from the value stored in the index. Also, the 'canreturn' index AM interface function gains a new 'attno' argument. That makes it possible to use index-only scans on a multi-column index where some of the opclasses support index-only scans but some do not. This patch adds support in the box and point opclasses. Other opclasses can added later as follow-on patches (btree_gist would be particularly interesting). Anastasia Lubennikova, with additional fixes and modifications by me.

* Centralize definition of integer limits.Andres Freund2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several submitted and even committed patches have run into the problem that C89, our baseline, does not provide minimum/maximum values for various integer datatypes. C99's stdint.h does, but we can't rely on it. Several parts of the code defined limits locally, so instead centralize the definitions to c.h. This patch also changes the more obvious usages of literal limit values; there's more places that could be changed, but it's less clear whether it's beneficial to change those.

* Return ObjectAddress in many ALTER TABLE sub-routinesAlvaro Herrera2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit a2e35b53c39b2a, most CREATE and ALTER commands return the ObjectAddress of the affected object. This is useful for event triggers to try to figure out exactly what happened. This patch extends this idea a bit further to cover ALTER TABLE as well: an auxiliary ObjectAddress is returned for each of several subcommands of ALTER TABLE. This makes it possible to decode with precision what happened during execution of any ALTER TABLE command; for instance, which constraint was added by ALTER TABLE ADD CONSTRAINT, or which parent got dropped from the parents list by ALTER TABLE NO INHERIT. As with the previous patch, there is no immediate user-visible change here. This is all really just continuing what c504513f83a9ee8 started. Reviewed by Stephen Frost.
