* hash: Refactor hash index creation.Robert Haas2017-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | The primary goal here is to move all of the related page modifications to a single section of code, in preparation for adding write-ahead logging. In passing, rename _hash_metapinit to _hash_init, since it initializes more than just the metapage. Amit Kapila.

* Consider parallel merge joins.Robert Haas2017-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 45be99f8cd5d606086e0a458c9c72910ba8a613d took the position that performing a merge join in parallel was not likely to work out well, but this conclusion was greeted with skepticism even at the time. Whether it was true then or not, it's clearly not true any more now that we have parallel index scan. Dilip Kumar, reviewed by Amit Kapila and by me.

* Remove vestigial grammar support for CHARACTER ... CHARACTER SET option.Tom Lane2017-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SQL standard says that you should be able to write "CHARACTER SET foo" as part of the declaration of a char-type column. We don't implement that, but a rough form of support has existed in gram.y since commit f10b63923. That's now sat there for nigh 20 years without anyone fleshing it out --- and even if someone did, the contemplated approach of having separate data type name(s) for every character set certainly isn't what we'd do today. Let's just remove the grammar production; if anyone is ever motivated to work on this, reinventing the grammar support is a trivial fraction of what they'd have to do. And we've never documented anything about supporting such a clause. Per gripe from Neha Khatri. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFO0U+-iOS5oYN5v3SBuZvfhPUTRrkDFEx8w7H17B07Rwg3YUA@mail.gmail.com
* Preparatory refactoring for parallel merge join support.Robert Haas2017-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extract the logic used by hash_inner_and_outer into a separate function, get_cheapest_parallel_safe_total_inner, so that it can also be used to plan parallel merge joins. Also, add a require_parallel_safe argument to the existing function get_cheapest_path_for_pathkeys, because parallel merge join needs to find the cheapest path for a given set of pathkeys that is parallel-safe, not just the cheapest one overall.

* Fix parallel hash join path search.Robert Haas2017-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | When the very cheapest path is not parallel-safe, we want to instead use the cheapest unparameterized path that is. The old code searched innerrel->cheapest_parameterized_paths, but that isn't right, because the path we want may not be in that list. Search innerrel->pathlist instead. Spotted by Dilip Kumar.

* Support SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication (RFC 5802 and 7677).Heikki Linnakangas2017-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new generic SASL authentication method, similar to the GSS and SSPI methods. The server first tells the client which SASL authentication mechanism to use, and then the mechanism-specific SASL messages are exchanged in AuthenticationSASLcontinue and PasswordMessage messages. Only SCRAM-SHA-256 is supported at the moment, but this allows adding more SASL mechanisms in the future, without changing the overall protocol. Support for channel binding, aka SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS is left for later. The SASLPrep algorithm, for pre-processing the password, is not yet implemented. That could cause trouble, if you use a password with non-ASCII characters, and a client library that does implement SASLprep. That will hopefully be added later. Authorization identities, as specified in the SCRAM-SHA-256 specification, are ignored. SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION provides more or less the same functionality, anyway. If a user doesn't exist, perform a "mock" authentication, by constructing an authentic-looking challenge on the fly. The challenge is derived from a new system-wide random value, "mock authentication nonce", which is created at initdb, and stored in the control file. We go through these motions, in order to not give away the information on whether the user exists, to unauthenticated users. Bumps PG_CONTROL_VERSION, because of the new field in control file.

* Avoid dangling pointer to relation name in RLS code path in DoCopy().Tom Lane2017-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With RLS active, "COPY tab TO ..." failed under -DRELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE, and would sometimes fail without that, because it used the relation name directly from the relcache as part of the parsetree it's building. That becomes a potentially-dangling pointer as soon as the relcache entry is closed, a bit further down. Typical symptom if the relcache entry chanced to get cleared would be "relation does not exist" error with a garbage relation name, or possibly a core dump; but if you were really truly unlucky, the COPY might copy from the wrong table. Per report from Andrew Dunstan that regression tests fail with -DRELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE. The core tests now pass for me (but have not tried "make check-world" yet).

* Allow dropping multiple functions at oncePeter Eisentraut2017-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | The generic drop support already supported dropping multiple objects of the same kind at once. But the previous representation of function signatures across two grammar symbols and structure members made this cumbersome to do for functions, so it was not supported. Now that function signatures are represented by a single structure, it's trivial to add this support. Same for aggregates and operators.

| | | | | | | | | | | The old function took function name and function argument list as separate arguments.

* Remove objname/objargs split for referring to objectsPeter Eisentraut2017-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In simpler times, it might have worked to refer to all kinds of objects by a list of name components and an optional argument list. But this doesn't work for all objects, which has resulted in a collection of hacks to place various other nodes types into these fields, which have to be unpacked at the other end. This makes it also weird to represent lists of such things in the grammar, because they would have to be lists of singleton lists, to make the unpacking work consistently. The other problem is that keeping separate name and args fields makes it awkward to deal with lists of functions. Change that by dropping the objargs field and have objname, renamed to object, be a generic Node, which can then be flexibly assigned and managed using the normal Node mechanisms. In many cases it will still be a List of names, in some cases it will be a string Value, for types it will be the existing Typename, for functions it will now use the existing ObjectWithArgs node type. Some of the more obscure object types still use somewhat arbitrary nested lists. Reviewed-by: Jim Nasby <Jim.Nasby@BlueTreble.com> Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>

* In rebuild_relation(), don't access an already-closed relcache entry.Tom Lane2017-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reliably fails with -DRELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE, as reported by Andrew Dunstan, and could sometimes fail in normal operation, resulting in a wrong persistence value being used for the transient table. It's not immediately clear to me what effects that might have beyond the risk of a crash while accessing OldHeap->rd_rel->relpersistence, but it's probably not good. Bug introduced by commit f41872d0c, and made substantially worse by commit 85b506bbf, which added a second such access significantly later than the heap_close. I doubt the first reference could fail in a production scenario, but the second one definitely could. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/7b52f900-0579-cda9-ae2e-de5da17090e6@2ndQuadrant.com

* Notify bgworker registrant after freeing worker slot.Robert Haas2017-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tom Lane observed buildfarm failures caused by the select_parallel regression test trying to launch new parallel queries before the worker slots used by the previous ones were freed. Try to fix this by having the postmaster free the worker slots before it sends the SIGUSR1 notifications to the registering process. This doesn't completely eliminate the possibility that the user backend might (correctly) observe the worker as dead before the slot is free, but I believe it should make the window significantly narrower.

* Reduce size of common allocation header.Andres Freund2017-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new slab allocator needs different per-allocation information than the classical aset.c. The definition in 58b25e981 wasn't sufficiently careful on 32 platforms with 8 byte alignment, leading to buildfarm failures. That's not entirely easy to fix by just adjusting the definition. As slab.c doesn't actually need the size part(s) of the common header, all chunks are equally sized after all, it seems better to instead reduce the header to the part needed by all allocators, namely which context an allocation belongs to. That has the advantage of reducing the overhead of slab allocations, and also allows for more flexibility in future allocators. To avoid spreading the logic about accessing a chunk's context around, centralize it in GetMemoryChunkContext(), which allows to delete a good number of lines. A followup commit will revise the mmgr/README portion about StandardChunkHeader, and more. Author: Andres Freund Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170228074420.aazv4iw6k562mnxg@alap3.anarazel.de
