* Fix run-time partition pruning code to handle NULL values properly.Tom Lane2018-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding just ignored pruning constraints that compare a partition key to a null-valued expression. This is silly, since really what we can do there is conclude that all partitions are rejected: the pruning operator is known strict so the comparison must always fail. This also fixes the logic to not ignore constisnull for a Const comparison value. That's probably an unreachable case, since the planner would normally have simplified away a strict operator with a constant-null input. But this code has no business assuming that.

* Fix a couple of bugs with replication slot advancing featureMichael Paquier2018-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A review of the code has showed up a couple of issues fixed by this commit: - Physical slots have been using the confirmed LSN position as a start comparison point which is always 0/0, instead use the restart LSN position (logical slots need to use the confirmed LSN position, which was correct). - The actual slot update was incorrect for both physical and logical slots. Physical slots need to use their restart_lsn as base comparison point (confirmed_flush was used because of previous point), and logical slots need to begin reading WAL from restart_lsn (confirmed_flush was used as well), while confirmed_flush is compiled depending on the decoding context and record read, and is the LSN position returned back to the caller. - Never return 0/0 if a slot cannot be advanced. This way, if a slot is advanced while the activity is idle, then the same position is returned to the caller over and over without raising an error. Instead return the LSN the slot has been advanced to. With repetitive calls, the same position is returned hence caller can directly monitor the difference in progress in bytes by doing simply LSN difference calculations, which should be monotonic. Note that as the slot is owned by the backend advancing it, then the read of those fields is fine lock-less, while updates need to happen while the slot mutex is held, so fix that on the way as well. Other locks for in-memory data of replication slots have been already fixed previously. Some of those issues have been pointed out by Petr and Simon during the patch, while I noticed some of them after looking at the code. This also visibly takes of a recently-discovered bug causing assertion failures which can be triggered by a two-step slot forwarding which first advanced the slot to a WAL page boundary and secondly advanced it to the latest position, say 'FF/FFFFFFF' to make sure that the newest LSN is used as forward point. It would have been nice to drop a test for that, but the set of operators working on pg_lsn limits it, so this is left for a future exercise.

* Assorted cosmetic cleanup of run-time-partition-pruning code.Tom Lane2018-06-10

* Relocate partition pruning structs to a saner place.Tom Lane2018-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These struct definitions were originally dropped into primnodes.h, which is a poor choice since that's mainly intended for primitive expression node types; these are not in that category. What they are is auxiliary info in Plan trees, so move them to plannodes.h. For consistency, also relocate some related code that was apparently placed with the aid of a dartboard. There's no interesting code changes in this commit, just reshuffling. David Rowley and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFj8pRBjrufA3ocDm8o4LPGNye9Y+pm1b9kCwode4X04CULG3g@mail.gmail.com
* Improve run-time partition pruning to handle any stable expression.Tom Lane2018-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial coding of the run-time-pruning feature only coped with cases where the partition key(s) are compared to Params. That is a bit silly; we can allow it to work with any non-Var-containing stable expression, as long as we take special care with expressions containing PARAM_EXEC Params. The code is hardly any longer this way, and it's considerably clearer (IMO at least). Per gripe from Pavel Stehule.

* Fix and document lock handling for in-memory replication slot dataMichael Paquier2018-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While debugging issues on HEAD for the new slot forwarding feature of Postgres 11, some monitoring of the code surrounding in-memory slot data has proved that the lock handling may cause inconsistent data to be read by read-only callers of slot functions, particularly pg_get_replication_slots() which fetches data for the system view pg_replication_slots, or modules looking directly at slot information. The code paths involved in those problems concern logical decoding initialization (down to 9.4) and WAL reservation for slots (new as of 10). A set of comments documenting all the lock handlings, particularly the dependency with LW locks for slots and the in_use flag as well as the internal mutex lock is added, based on a suggested by Simon Riggs. Some of the fixed code exists down to 9.4 where WAL decoding has been introduced, but as those race conditions are really unlikely going to happen as those concern code paths for slot and decoding creation, just fix the problem on HEAD.

This seems to read noticeably better in English, as evidenced by the regression test output changes, and the code change also makes it possible for translators to adjust the phrase order in other languages.

This seems to read better and is also more consistent with the output of, for instance, getObjectTypeDescription().

* Improve translatability of some getObjectDescription() messages.Tom Lane2018-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Refactor some cases in getObjectDescription so that the translator has more control over phrase order in the translated messages. This doesn't cause any changes in the English results. (I was sorely tempted to reorder "... belonging to role %s in schema %s" into "... in schema %s belonging to role %s", but refrained.) In principle we could back-patch this, but since translators have not complained about these cases previously, it seems better not to thrash the translatable strings in back branches.

* Fix objectaddress.c code for publication relations.Tom Lane2018-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | getObjectDescription and getObjectIdentity failed to schema-qualify the name of the published table, which is bad in getObjectDescription and unforgivable in getObjectIdentity. Actually, getObjectIdentity failed to emit the table's name at all unless "objname" output is requested, which accidentally works for some (all?) extant callers but is clearly not the intended API. Somebody had also not gotten the memo that the output of getObjectIdentity is not to be translated. To fix getObjectDescription, I made it call getRelationDescription, which required refactoring the translatable string for the case, but is more future-proof in case we ever publish relations that aren't plain tables. While at it, I made the English output look like "publication of table X in publication Y"; the added "of" seems to me to make it read much better. Back-patch to v10 where publications were introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20180522.182020.114074746.horiguchi.kyotaro@lab.ntt.co.jp
* Properly schema-qualify additional object types in getObjectDescription().Tom Lane2018-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Collations, conversions, extended statistics objects (in >= v10), and all four types of text search objects have schema-qualified names. getObjectDescription() ignored that and would emit just the base name of the object, potentially producing wrong or at least highly misleading output. Fix it to add the schema name whenever the object is not "visible" in the current search path, as is the rule for other schema-qualifiable object types. Although in common situations the output won't change, this seems to me (tgl) to be a bug worthy of back-patching, hence do so.

* Fix incorrect ordering of operations in pg_resetwal and pg_rewind.Tom Lane2018-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c37b3d08c dropped its added GetDataDirectoryCreatePerm call into the wrong place in pg_resetwal.c, namely after the chdir to DataDir. That broke invocations using a relative path, as reported by Tushar Ahuja. We could have left it where it was and changed the argument to be ".", but that'd result in a rather confusing error message in event of a failure, so re-ordering seems like a better solution. Similarly reorder operations in pg_rewind.c. The issue there is that it doesn't seem like a good idea to do any actual operations before the not-root check (on Unix) or the restricted token acquisition (on Windows). I don't know that this is an actual bug, but I'm definitely not convinced that it isn't, either.

* Accept "B" in all memory-unit GUCs, and improve error messages.Heikki Linnakangas2018-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 6e7baa3227 added support for "B" unit, for specifying config options in bytes. However, it was only accepted in GUC_UNIT_BYTE settings, wal_segment_size and track_activity_query_size, and not e.g. in work_mem. This patch makes it consistent, so that "B" accepted in all the same contexts where "kB", "MB", and so forth are accepted. Add "B" to the list of accepted units in the error hint, along with "kB", "MB", etc. Add an entry in the conversion table for "TB" to "B" conversion. A terabyte is out of range for any GUC_UNIT_BYTE option, so you always get an "out of range" error with that, but without it, you get a confusing error message that claims that "TB" is not an accepted unit, with a hint that nevertheless lists "TB" as an accepted unit.

* Widen COPY FROM's current-line-number counter from 32 to 64 bits.Tom Lane2018-05-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because the code for the HEADER option skips a line when this counter is zero, a very long COPY FROM WITH HEADER operation would drop a line every 2^32 lines. A lesser but still unfortunate problem is that errors would show a wrong input line number for errors occurring beyond the 2^31'st input line. While such large input streams seemed impractical when this code was first written, they're not any more. Widening the counter (and some associated variables) to uint64 should be enough to prevent problems for the foreseeable future.

* Detoast plpgsql variables if they might live across a transaction boundary.Tom Lane2018-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, it's been safe for plpgsql to store TOAST pointers in its variables because the ActiveSnapshot for whatever query called the plpgsql function will surely protect such TOAST values from being vacuumed away, even if the owning table rows are committed dead. With the introduction of procedures, that assumption is no longer good in "non atomic" executions of plpgsql code. We adopt the slightly brute-force solution of detoasting all TOAST pointers at the time they are stored into variables, if we're in a non-atomic context, just in case the owning row goes away. Some care is needed to avoid long-term memory leaks, since plpgsql tends to run with CurrentMemoryContext pointing to its call-lifespan context, but we shouldn't assume that no memory is leaked by heap_tuple_fetch_attr. In plpgsql proper, we can do the detoasting work in the "eval_mcontext". Most of the code thrashing here is due to the need to add this capability to expandedrecord.c as well as plpgsql proper. In expandedrecord.c, we can't assume that the caller's context is short-lived, so make use of the short-term sub-context that was already invented for checking domain constraints. In view of this repurposing, it seems good to rename that variable and associated code from "domain_check_cxt" to "short_term_cxt".

* Fix misprocessing of equivalence classes involving record_eq().Tom Lane2018-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | canonicalize_ec_expression() is supposed to agree with coerce_type() as to whether a RelabelType should be inserted to make a subexpression be valid input for the operators of a given opclass. However, it did the wrong thing with named-composite-type inputs to record_eq(): it put in a RelabelType to RECORDOID, which the parser doesn't. In some cases this was harmless because all code paths involving a particular equivalence class did the same thing, but in other cases this would result in failing to recognize a composite-type expression as being a member of an equivalence class that it actually is a member of. The most obvious bad effect was to fail to recognize that an index on a composite column could provide the sort order needed for a mergejoin on that column, as reported by Teodor Sigaev. I think there might be other, subtler, cases that result in misoptimization. It also seems possible that an unwanted RelabelType would sometimes get into an emitted plan --- but because record_eq and friends don't examine the declared type of their input expressions, that would not create any visible problems. To fix, just treat RECORDOID as if it were a polymorphic type, which in some sense it is. We might want to consider formalizing that a bit more someday, but for the moment this seems to be the only place where an IsPolymorphicType() test ought to include RECORDOID as well. This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/a6b22369-e3bf-4d49-f59d-0c41d3551e81@sigaev.ru

It's possible that this should be regarded as a bug fix and back-patched to earlier releases, but for lack of a test case that fails in earlier releases, no back-patch for now.

* Fix type checking for support functions of parallel VARIADIC aggregates.Tom Lane2018-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The impact of VARIADIC on the combine/serialize/deserialize support functions of an aggregate wasn't thought through carefully. There is actually no impact, because variadicity isn't passed through to these functions (and it doesn't seem like it would need to be). However, lookup_agg_function was mistakenly told to check things as though it were passed through. The net result was that it was impossible to declare an aggregate that had both VARIADIC input and parallelism support functions. In passing, fix a runtime check in nodeAgg.c for the combine function's strictness to make its error message agree with the creation-time check. The previous message was actually backwards, and it doesn't seem like there's a good reason to have two versions of this message text anyway. Back-patch to 9.6 where parallel aggregation was introduced. Alexey Bashtanov; message fix by me Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/f86dde87-fef4-71eb-0480-62754aaca01b@imap.cc
* Don't allow partitioned index on foreign-table partitionsAlvaro Herrera2018-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Creating indexes on foreign tables is already forbidden, but local partitioned indexes (commit 8b08f7d4820f) forgot to check for them. Add a preliminary check to prevent wasting time. Another school of thought says to allow the index to be created if it's not a unique index; but it's possible to do better in the future (enable indexing of foreign tables, somehow), so we avoid painting ourselves in a corner by rejecting all cases, to avoid future grief (a.k.a. backward incompatible changes).
