* Remove PartitionRoutingInfo struct.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | The extra indirection neeeded to access its members via its enclosing ResultRelInfo seems pointless. Move all the fields from PartitionRoutingInfo to ResultRelInfo. Author: Amit Langote Reviewed-by: Alvaro Herrera Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CA%2BHiwqFViT47Zbr_ASBejiK7iDG8%3DQ1swQ-tjM6caRPQ67pT%3Dw%40mail.gmail.com
* Revise child-to-root tuple conversion map management.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Store the tuple conversion map to convert a tuple from a child table's format to the root format in a new ri_ChildToRootMap field in ResultRelInfo. It is initialized if transition tuple capture for FOR STATEMENT triggers or INSERT tuple routing on a partitioned table is needed. Previously, ModifyTable kept the maps in the per-subplan ModifyTableState->mt_per_subplan_tupconv_maps array, or when tuple routing was used, in ResultRelInfo->ri_Partitioninfo->pi_PartitionToRootMap. The new field replaces both of those. Now that the child-to-root tuple conversion map is always available in ResultRelInfo (when needed), remove the TransitionCaptureState.tcs_map field. The callers of Exec*Trigger() functions no longer need to set or save it, which is much less confusing and bug-prone. Also, as a future optimization, this will allow us to delay creating the map for a given result relation until the relation is actually processed during execution.

* Clean up code to resolve the "root target relation" in nodeModifyTable.cHeikki Linnakangas2020-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When executing DDL on a partitioned table or on a table with inheritance children, statement-level triggers must be fired against the table given in the original statement. The code to look that up was a bit messy and duplicative. Commit 501ed02cf6 added a helper function, getASTriggerResultRelInfo() (later renamed to getTargetResultRelInfo()) for it, but for some reason it was only used when firing AFTER STATEMENT triggers and the code to fire BEFORE STATEMENT triggers duplicated the logic. Determine the target relation in ExecInitModifyTable(), and set it always in ModifyTableState. Code that used to call getTargetResultRelInfo() can now use ModifyTableState->rootResultRelInfo directly.

* Prevent overly large and NaN row estimates in relationsDavid Rowley2020-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Given a query with enough joins, it was possible that the query planner, after multiplying the row estimates with the join selectivity that the estimated number of rows would exceed the limits of the double data type and become infinite. To give an indication on how extreme a case is required to hit this, the particular example case reported required 379 joins to a table without any statistics, which resulted in the 1.0/DEFAULT_NUM_DISTINCT being used for the join selectivity. This eventually caused the row estimates to go infinite and resulted in an assert failure in initial_cost_mergejoin() where the infinite row estimated was multiplied by an outerstartsel of 0.0 resulting in NaN. The failing assert verified that NaN <= Inf, which is false. To get around this we use clamp_row_est() to cap row estimates at a maximum of 1e100. This value is thought to be low enough that costs derived from it would remain within the bounds of what the double type can represent. Aside from fixing the failing Assert, this also has the added benefit of making it so add_path() will still receive proper numerical values as costs which will allow it to make more sane choices when determining the cheaper path in extreme cases such as the one described above. Additionally, we also get rid of the isnan() checks in the join costing functions. The actual case which originally triggered those checks to be added in the first place never made it to the mailing lists. It seems likely that the new code being added to clamp_row_est() will result in those becoming checks redundant, so just remove them. The fairly harmless assert failure problem does also exist in the backbranches, however, a more minimalistic fix will be applied there.

* llvmjit: Also copy parameter / return value attributes from template functions.Andres Freund2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously we only copied the function attributes. That caused problems at least on s390x: Because we didn't copy the 'zeroext' attribute for ExecAggTransReparent()'s *IsNull parameters, expressions invoking it didn't ensure that the upper bytes of the registers were zeroed. In the - relatively rare - cases where not, ExecAggTransReparent() wrongly ended up in the newValueIsNull branch due to the register not being zero. Subsequently causing a crash. It's quite possible that this would cause problems on other platforms, and in other places than just ExecAggTransReparent() on s390x. Thanks to Christoph (and the Debian project) for providing me with access to a s390x machine, allowing me to debug this.

* Remove pointless HeapTupleHeaderIndicatesMovedPartitions callsAlvaro Herrera2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pavan Deolasee recently noted that a few of the HeapTupleHeaderIndicatesMovedPartitions calls added by commit 5db6df0c0117 are useless, since they are done after comparing t_self with t_ctid. But because t_self can never be set to the magical values that indicate that the tuple moved partition, this can never succeed: if the first test fails (so we know t_self equals t_ctid), necessarily the second test will also fail. So these checks can be removed and no harm is done. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20200929164411.GA15497@alvherre.pgsql
* Review logical replication tablesync codeAlvaro Herrera2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most importantly, remove optimization in LogicalRepSyncTableStart that skips the normal walrcv_startstreaming/endstreaming dance. The optimization is not critically important for production uses anyway, since it only fires in cases with no activity, and saves an uninteresting amount of work even then. Critically, it obscures bugs by hiding the interesting code path from test cases. Also: in GetSubscriptionRelState, remove pointless relation open; access pg_subscription_rel->srsubstate with GETSTRUCT as is typical rather than SysCacheGetAttr; remove unused 'missing_ok' argument. In wait_for_relation_state_change, use explicit catalog snapshot invalidation rather than obscurely (and expensively) through GetLatestSnapshot. In various places: sprinkle comments more liberally and rewrite a number of them. Other cosmetic code improvements. No backpatch, since no bug is being fixed here.

* Execute invalidation messages for each XLOG_XACT_INVALIDATIONS messageAmit Kapila2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | during logical decoding. Prior to commit c55040ccd0 we have no way of knowing the invalidations before commit. So, while decoding we use to execute all the invalidations at each command end as we had no way of knowing which invalidations happened before that command. Due to this, transactions involving large amounts of DDLs use to take more time and also lead to high CPU usage. But now we know specific invalidations at each command end so we execute only required invalidations. It has been observed that decoding of a transaction containing truncation of a table with 1000 partitions would be finished in 1s whereas before this patch it used to take 4-5 minutes.

* Remove es_result_relation_info from EState.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintaining 'es_result_relation_info' correctly at all times has become cumbersome, especially with partitioning where each partition gets its own result relation info. Having to set and reset it across arbitrary operations has caused bugs in the past.

* Include result relation info in direct modify ForeignScan nodes.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FDWs that can perform an UPDATE/DELETE remotely using the "direct modify" set of APIs need to access the ResultRelInfo of the target table. That's currently available in EState.es_result_relation_info, but the next commit will remove that field. This commit adds a new resultRelation field in ForeignScan, to store the target relation's RT index, and the corresponding ResultRelInfo in ForeignScanState. The FDW's PlanDirectModify callback is expected to set 'resultRelation' along with 'operation'. The core code doesn't need them for anything, they are for the convenience of FDW's Begin- and IterateDirectModify callbacks.

* Create ResultRelInfos later in InitPlan, index them by RT index.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of allocating all the ResultRelInfos upfront in one big array, allocate them in ExecInitModifyTable(). es_result_relations is now an array of ResultRelInfo pointers, rather than an array of structs, and it is indexed by the RT index. This simplifies things: we get rid of the separate concept of a "result rel index", and don't need to set it in setrefs.c anymore. This also allows follow-up optimizations (not included in this commit yet) to skip initializing ResultRelInfos for target relations that were not needed at runtime, and removal of the es_result_relation_info pointer. The EState arrays of regular result rels and root result rels are merged into one array. Similarly, the resultRelations and rootResultRelations lists in PlannedStmt are merged into one. It's not actually clear to me why they were kept separate in the first place, but now that the es_result_relations array is indexed by RT index, it certainly seems pointless. The PlannedStmt->resultRelations list is now only needed for ExecRelationIsTargetRelation(). One visible effect of this change is that ExecRelationIsTargetRelation() will now return 'true' also for the partition root, if a partitioned table is updated. That seems like a good thing, although the function isn't used in core code, and I don't see any reason for an FDW to call it on a partition root.

* Re-allow testing of GiST buffered builds.Tom Lane2020-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 16fa9b2b3 broke the ability to reliably test GiST buffered builds, because it caused sorted builds to be done instead if sortsupport is available, regardless of any attempt to override that. While a would-be test case could try to work around that by choosing an opclass that has no sortsupport function, coverage would be silently lost the moment someone decides it'd be a good idea to add a sortsupport function. Hence, rearrange the logic in gistbuild() so that if "buffering = on" is specified in CREATE INDEX, we will use that method, sortsupport or no. Also document the interaction between sorting and the buffering parameter, as 16fa9b2b3 failed to do. (Note that in fact we still lack any test coverage of buffered builds, but this is a prerequisite to adding a non-fragile test.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3249980.1602532990@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Fix memory leak when guc.c decides a setting can't be applied now.Tom Lane2020-10-12

Thus we'd leak the proposed new value of a PGC_STRING variable, as noted by BoChen in bug #16666. For all variable types, if the check hook creates an "extra" chunk, we'd also leak that. These are malloc not palloc chunks, so there is no mechanism for recovering the leaks before process exit. Fortunately, the values are typically not very large, meaning you'd have to go through an awful lot of SIGHUP configuration-reload cycles to make the leakage amount to anything. Still, for a long-lived postmaster process it could potentially be a problem. Oversight in commit 2594cf0e8. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Recognize network-failure errnos as indicating hard connection loss.Tom Lane2020-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, only ECONNRESET (and EPIPE, in most but not quite all places) received special treatment in our error handling logic. This patch changes things so that related error codes such as ECONNABORTED are also recognized as indicating that the connection's dead and unlikely to come back. We continue to think, however, that only ECONNRESET and EPIPE should be reported as probable server crashes; the other cases indicate network connectivity problems but prove little about the server's state. Thus, there's no change in the error message texts that are output for such cases. The key practical effect is that errcode_for_socket_access() will report ERRCODE_CONNECTION_FAILURE rather than ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR for a network failure. It's expected that this will fix buildfarm member lorikeet's failures since commit 32a9c0bdf, as that seems to be due to not treating ECONNABORTED equivalently to ECONNRESET. The set of errnos treated this way now includes ECONNABORTED, EHOSTDOWN, EHOSTUNREACH, ENETDOWN, ENETRESET, and ENETUNREACH. Several of these were second-class citizens in terms of their handling in places like get_errno_symbol(), so upgrade the infrastructure where necessary. As committed, this patch assumes that all these symbols are defined everywhere. POSIX specifies all of them except EHOSTDOWN, but that seems to exist on all platforms of interest; we'll see what the buildfarm says about that. Probably this should be back-patched, but let's see what the buildfarm thinks of it first. Fujii Masao and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2621622.1602184554@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Prevent internal overflows in date-vs-timestamp and related comparisons.Tom Lane2020-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The date-vs-timestamp, date-vs-timestamptz, and timestamp-vs-timestamptz comparators all worked by promoting the first type to the second and then doing a simple same-type comparison. This works fine, except when the conversion result is out of range, in which case we throw an entirely avoidable error. The sources of such failures are (a) type date can represent dates much farther in the future than the timestamp types can; (b) timezone rotation might cause a just-in-range timestamp value to become a just-out-of-range timestamptz value. Up to now we just ignored these corner-case issues, but now we have an actual user complaint (bug #16657 from Huss EL-Sheikh), so let's do something about it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch prevents crashes or wrong plans when partition-wise joins are considered during GEQO planning, as a consequence of the EquivalenceClass data structures becoming corrupt after a GEQO context reset. A remaining problem is that successive GEQO cycles will make multiple copies of the required EC members, since add_child_join_rel_equivalences has no idea that such members might exist already. For now we'll just live with that. The lack of field complaints of crashes suggests that this is a mighty little-used situation. Back-patch to v12 where this code was introduced.

* Overhaul pg_hba.conf clientcert's APIBruce Momjian2020-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since PG 12, clientcert no longer supported only on/off, so remove 1/0 as possible values, and instead support only the text strings 'verify-ca' and 'verify-full'. Remove support for 'no-verify' since that is possible by just not specifying clientcert. Also, throw an error if 'verify-ca' is used and 'cert' authentication is used, since cert authentication requires verify-full. Also improve the docs. THIS IS A BACKWARD INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE.

* Fix two latent(?) bugs in equivclass.c.Tom Lane2020-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_eclass_for_sort_expr() computes expr_relids and nullable_relids early on, even though they won't be needed unless we make a new EquivalenceClass, which we often don't. Aside from the probably-minor inefficiency, there's a memory management problem: these bitmapsets will be built in the caller's context, leading to dangling pointers if that is shorter-lived than root->planner_cxt. This would be a live bug if get_eclass_for_sort_expr() could be called with create_it = true during GEQO join planning. So far as I can find, the core code never does that, but it's hard to be sure that no extensions do, especially since the comments make it clear that that's supposed to be a supported case. Fix by not computing these values until we've switched into planner_cxt to build the new EquivalenceClass. generate_join_implied_equalities() uses inner_rel->relids to look up relevant eclasses, but it ought to be using nominal_inner_relids. This is presently harmless because a child RelOptInfo will always have exactly the same eclass_indexes as its topmost parent; but that might not be true forever, and anyway it makes the code confusing. The first of these is old (introduced by me in f3b3b8d5b), so back-patch to all supported branches. The second only dates to v13, but we might as well back-patch it to keep the code looking similar across branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1508010.1601832581@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Support for OUT parameters in proceduresPeter Eisentraut2020-10-05

* Fix handling of redundant options with COPY for "freeze" and "header"Michael Paquier2020-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The handling of those options was inconsistent, as the processing used directly the value assigned to the option to check if it was redundant, leading to patterns like this one to succeed (note that false is specified first): COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header off, header on); And the opposite would fail correctly (note that true is first here): COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header on, header off); While on it, add some tests to check for all redundant patterns with the options of COPY. I have gone through the code and did not notice similar mistakes for other commands. "header" got it wrong since b63990c, and "freeze" was wrong from the start as of 8de72b6. No backpatch is done per the lack of complaints.

* Make postgres.bki use the same literal-string syntax as postgresql.conf.Tom Lane2020-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The BKI file's string quoting conventions were previously quite weird, perhaps as a result of repurposing a function built to scan single-quoted strings to scan double-quoted ones. Change to use the same rules as we use in GUC files, allowing some simplifications in genbki.pl and initdb.c. While at it, completely remove the backend's scanstr() function, which was essentially a duplicate of the string dequoting code in guc-file.l. Instead export that one (under a less generic name than it had) and let bootscanner.l use it. Now we can clarify that scansup.c exists only to support the main lexer. We could alternatively have removed GUC_scanstr, but this way seems better since the previous arrangement could mislead a reader into thinking that scanstr() had something to do with the main lexer's handling of string literals. Maybe it did once, but if so it was a long time ago. This patch does not bump catversion, since the initially-installed catalog contents don't change. Note however that successful initdb after applying this patch will require up-to-date postgres.bki as well as postgres and initdb executables. In passing, remove a bunch of very-long-obsolete #include's in bootparse.y and bootscanner.l.

* Add pg_stat_wal statistics view.Fujii Masao2020-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This view shows the statistics about WAL activity. Currently it has only two columns: wal_buffers_full and stats_reset. wal_buffers_full column indicates the number of times WAL data was written to the disk because WAL buffers got full. This information is useful when tuning wal_buffers. stats_reset column indicates the time at which these statistics were last reset. pg_stat_wal view is also the basic infrastructure to expose other various statistics about WAL activity later. Bump PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID due to the change in pgstat format. Bump catalog version.

* Add block information in error context of WAL REDO apply loopMichael Paquier2020-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Providing this information can be useful for example when diagnosing problems related to recovery conflicts or for recovery issues without having to go through the output generated by pg_waldump to get some information about the blocks a WAL record works on. The block information is printed in the same format as pg_waldump. This already existed in xlog.c for debugging purposes with -DWAL_DEBUG, so adding the block information in the callback has required just a small refactoring.

* Set right-links during sorted GiST index build.Heikki Linnakangas2020-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | This is not strictly necessary, as the right-links are only needed by scans that are concurrent with page splits, and neither scans or page splits can happen during sorted index build.

* Fix and test snapshot behavior on standby.Andres Freund2020-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I (Andres) broke this in 623a9CA79bx, because I didn't think about the way snapshots are built on standbys sufficiently. Unfortunately our existing tests did not catch this, as they are all just querying with psql (therefore ending up with fresh snapshots). The fix is trivial, we just need to increment the transaction completion counter in ExpireTreeKnownAssignedTransactionIds(), which is the equivalent of ProcArrayEndTransaction() during recovery. This commit also adds a new test doing some basic testing of the correctness of snapshots built on standbys. To avoid the aforementioned issue of one-shot psql's not exercising the snapshot caching, the test uses a long lived psqls, similar to 013_crash_restart.pl. It'd be good to extend the test further.

* Fix handling of BC years in to_date/to_timestamp.Tom Lane2020-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, a conversion such as to_date('-44-02-01','YYYY-MM-DD') would result in '0045-02-01 BC', as the code attempted to interpret the negative year as BC, but failed to apply the correction needed for our internal handling of BC years. Fix the off-by-one problem. Also, arrange for the combination of a negative year and an explicit "BC" marker to cancel out and produce AD. This is how the negative-century case works, so it seems sane to do likewise. Continue to read "year 0000" as 1 BC. Oracle would throw an error, but we've accepted that case for a long time so I'm hesitant to change it in a back-patch. Per bug #16419 from Saeed Hubaishan. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Support for ISO 8601 in the jsonpath .datetime() methodAlexander Korotkov2020-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SQL standard doesn't require jsonpath .datetime() method to support the ISO 8601 format. But our to_json[b]() functions convert timestamps to text in the ISO 8601 format in the sake of compatibility with javascript. So, we add support of the ISO 8601 to the jsonpath .datetime() in the sake compatibility with to_json[b](). The standard mode of datetime parsing currently supports just template patterns and separators in the format string. In order to implement ISO 8601, we have to add support of the format string double quotes to the standard parsing mode.
