* Fix CLUSTER progress reporting of number of blocks scanned.Fujii Masao2020-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously pg_stat_progress_cluster view reported the current block number in heap scan as the number of heap blocks scanned (i.e., heap_blks_scanned). This reported number could be incorrect when synchronize_seqscans is enabled, because it allowed the heap scan to start at block in middle. This could result in wraparounds in the heap_blks_scanned column when the heap scan wrapped around. This commit fixes the bug by calculating the number of blocks from the block that the heap scan starts at to the current block in scan, and reporting that number in the heap_blks_scanned column. Also, in pg_stat_progress_cluster view, previously heap_blks_scanned could not reach heap_blks_total at the end of heap scan phase if the last pages scanned were empty. This commit fixes the bug by manually updating heap_blks_scanned to the same value as heap_blks_total when the heap scan phase finishes. Back-patch to v12 where pg_stat_progress_cluster view was introduced.

* Properly check index mark/restore in ExecSupportsMarkRestore.Andrew Gierth2020-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously this code assumed that all IndexScan nodes supported mark/restore, which is not true since it depends on optional index AM support functions. This could lead to errors about missing support functions in rare edge cases of mergejoins with no sort keys, where an unordered non-btree index scan was placed on the inner path without a protecting Materialize node. (Normally, the fact that merge join requires ordered input would avoid this error.) Backpatch all the way since this bug is ancient. Per report from Eugen Konkov on irc.

* Further fixes for CREATE TABLE LIKE: cope with self-referential FKs.Tom Lane2020-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 502898192 was too careless about the order of execution of the additional ALTER TABLE operations generated by expandTableLikeClause. It just stuck them all at the end, which seems okay for most purposes. But it falls down in the case where LIKE is importing a primary key or unique index and the outer CREATE TABLE includes a FOREIGN KEY constraint that needs to depend on that index. Weird as that is, it used to work, so we ought to keep it working. To fix, make parse_utilcmd.c insert LIKE clauses between index-creation and FK-creation commands in the transformed list of commands, and change utility.c so that the commands generated by expandTableLikeClause are executed immediately not at the end. One could imagine scenarios where this wouldn't work either; but currently expandTableLikeClause only makes column default expressions, CHECK constraints, and indexes, and this ordering seems fine for those. Per bug #16730 from Sofoklis Papasofokli. Like the previous patch, back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16730-b902f7e6e0276b30@postgresql.org
* Don't Insert() a VFD entry until it's fully built.Tom Lane2020-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Otherwise, if FDDEBUG is enabled, the debugging output fails because it tries to read the fileName, which isn't set up yet (and should in fact always be NULL). AFAICT, this has been wrong since Berkeley. Before 96bf88d52, it would accidentally fail to crash on platforms where snprintf() is forgiving about being passed a NULL pointer for %s; but the file name intended to be included in the debug output wouldn't ever have shown up. Report and fix by Greg Nancarrow. Although this is only visibly broken in custom-made builds, it still seems worth back-patching to all supported branches, as the FDDEBUG code is pretty useless as it stands.

* Do not return NULL for error cases in satisfies_hash_partition().Tom Lane2020-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since this function is used as a CHECK constraint condition, returning NULL is tantamount to returning TRUE, which would have the effect of letting in a row that doesn't satisfy the hash condition. Admittedly, the cases for which this is done should be unreachable in practice, but that doesn't make it any less a bad idea. It also seems like a dartboard was used to decide which error cases should throw errors as opposed to returning NULL. For the checks for NULL input values, I just switched it to returning false. There's some argument that an error would be better; but the case really should be can't-happen in a generated hash constraint, so it's likely not worth more code for. For the parent-relation-open-failure case, it seems like we might as well let relation_open throw an error, instead of having an impossible-to-diagnose constraint failure.

* Fix fuzzy thinking about amcanmulticol versus amcaninclude.Tom Lane2020-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These flags should be independent: in particular an index AM should be able to say that it supports include columns without necessarily supporting multiple key columns. The included-columns patch got this wrong, possibly aided by the fact that it didn't bother to update the documentation. While here, clarify some text about amcanreturn, which was a little vague about what should happen when amcanreturn reports that only some of the index columns are returnable. Noted while reviewing the SP-GiST included-columns patch, which quite incorrectly (and unsafely) changed SP-GiST to claim amcanmulticol = true as a workaround for this bug. Backpatch to v11 where included columns were introduced.

* Remove useless SHA256 initialization when not using backup manifestsMichael Paquier2020-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempting to take a base backup with Postgres linking to a build of OpenSSL with FIPS enabled currently fails with or even without a backup manifest requested because of this mandatory SHA256 initialization used for the manifest file itself. However, there is no need to do this initialization at all if backup manifests are not needed because there is no data to append to the manifest. Note that being able to use backup manifests with OpenSSL+FIPS requires a switch of the SHA2 implementation to use EVP, which would cause an ABI breakage so this cannot be backpatched to 13 as it has been already released, but at least avoiding this SHA256 initialization gives users the possibility to take a base backup even when specifying --no-manifest with pg_basebackup.

* Fix and simplify some usages of TimestampDifference().Tom Lane2020-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() to simplify callers that would rather have the difference in milliseconds, instead of the select()-oriented seconds-and-microseconds format. This gets rid of at least one integer division per call, and it eliminates some apparently-easy-to-mess-up arithmetic. Two of these call sites were in fact wrong: * pg_prewarm's autoprewarm_main() forgot to multiply the seconds by 1000, thus ending up with a delay 1000X shorter than intended. That doesn't quite make it a busy-wait, but close. * postgres_fdw's pgfdw_get_cleanup_result() thought it needed to compute microseconds not milliseconds, thus ending up with a delay 1000X longer than intended. Somebody along the way had noticed this problem but misdiagnosed the cause, and imposed an ad-hoc 60-second limit rather than fixing the units. This was relatively harmless in context, because we don't care that much about exactly how long this delay is; still, it's wrong. There are a few more callers of TimestampDifference() that don't have a direct need for seconds-and-microseconds, but can't use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() either because they do need microsecond precision or because they might possibly deal with intervals long enough to overflow 32-bit milliseconds. It might be worth inventing another API to improve that, but that seems outside the scope of this patch; so those callers are untouched here. Given the fact that we are fixing some bugs, and the likelihood that future patches might want to back-patch code that uses this new API, back-patch to all supported branches.

* In security-restricted operations, block enqueue of at-commit user code.Noah Misch2020-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Specifically, this blocks DECLARE ... WITH HOLD and firing of deferred triggers within index expressions and materialized view queries. An attacker having permission to create non-temp objects in at least one schema could execute arbitrary SQL functions under the identity of the bootstrap superuser. One can work around the vulnerability by disabling autovacuum and not manually running ANALYZE, CLUSTER, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, VACUUM FULL, or REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW. (Don't restore from pg_dump, since it runs some of those commands.) Plain VACUUM (without FULL) is safe, and all commands are fine when a trusted user owns the target object. Performance may degrade quickly under this workaround, however. Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Robert Haas. Reported by Etienne Stalmans. Security: CVE-2020-25695

* In INSERT/UPDATE, use the table's real tuple descriptor as target.Tom Lane2020-11-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This back-patches commit 20d3fe900 into the v12 and v13 branches. At the time I thought that commit was not fixing any observable bug, but Bertrand Drouvot showed otherwise: adding a dropped column to the previously-considered scenario crashes v12 and v13, unless the dropped column happens to be an integer. That is, of course, because the tupdesc we derive from the plan output tlist fails to describe the dropped column accurately, so that we'll do the wrong thing with a tuple in which that column isn't NULL. There is no bug in pre-v12 branches because they already did use the table's real tuple descriptor for any trigger-returned tuple. It seems that this set of bugs can be blamed on the changes that removed es_trig_tuple_slot, though I've not attempted to pin that down precisely. Although there's no code change needed in HEAD, update the test case to include a dropped column there too.

* Properly detoast data in brin_form_tupleTomas Vondra2020-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | brin_form_tuple failed to consider the values may be toasted, inserting the toast pointer into the index. This may easily result in index corruption, as the toast data may be deleted and cleaned up by vacuum. The cleanup however does not care about indexes, leaving invalid toast pointers behind, which triggers errors like this: ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 16433 in pg_toast_16426 A less severe consequence are inconsistent failures due to the index row being too large, depending on whether brin_form_tuple operated on plain or toasted version of the row. For example CREATE TABLE t (val TEXT); INSERT INTO t VALUES ('... long value ...') CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING brin (val); would likely succeed, as the row would likely include toast pointer. Switching the order of INSERT and CREATE INDEX would likely fail: ERROR: index row size 8712 exceeds maximum 8152 for index "idx" because this happens before the row values are toasted. The bug exists since PostgreSQL 9.5 where BRIN indexes were introduced. So backpatch all the way back.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | LOCK TABLE has complained about "infinite recursion" when applied to a self-referential view, ever since we made it recurse into views in v11. However, that breaks pg_dump's new assumption that it's okay to lock every relation.

* Fix nbtree cleanup-only VACUUM stats inaccuracies.Peter Geoghegan2020-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Logic for counting heap TIDs from posting list tuples (added by commit 0d861bbb) was faulty. It didn't count any TIDs/index tuples in the event of no callback being set. This meant that we incorrectly counted no index tuples in clean-up only VACUUMs, which could lead to pg_class.reltuples being spuriously set to 0 in affected indexes. To fix, go back to counting items from the page in cases where there is no callback. This approach isn't very accurate, but it works well enough in practice while avoiding the expense of accessing every index tuple during cleanup-only VACUUMs. Author: Peter Geoghegan <pg@bowt.ie> Reported-By: Jehan-Guillaume de Rorthais <jgdr@dalibo.com> https://postgr.es/m/20201023174451.69e358f1@firost Backpatch: 13-, where nbtree deduplication was introduced

While that appears to work on many platforms, it does not work on FreeBSD 11: you get back a failure, which leads to the view showing NULL for the address and netmask columns in all rows. The POSIX spec for getnameinfo() is pretty clearly on FreeBSD's side here: you should pass the actual address length. So it seems plausible that there are other platforms where this coding also fails, and we just hadn't noticed. Also, IMO the fact that getnameinfo() failure leads to a NULL output is pretty bogus in itself. Our pg_getnameinfo_all() wrapper is careful to emit "???" on failure, and we should use that in such cases. NULL should only be emitted in rows that don't have IP addresses.

* Calculate extraUpdatedCols in query rewriter, not parser.Tom Lane2020-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's unsafe to do this at parse time because addition of generated columns to a table would not invalidate stored rules containing UPDATEs on the table ... but there might now be dependent generated columns that were not there when the rule was made. This also fixes an oversight that rewriteTargetView failed to update extraUpdatedCols when transforming an UPDATE on an updatable view. (Since the new calculation is downstream of that, rewriteTargetView doesn't actually need to do anything; but before, there was a demonstrable bug there.) In v13 and HEAD, this leads to easily-visible bugs because (since commit c6679e4fc) we won't recalculate generated columns that aren't listed in extraUpdatedCols. In v12 this bitmap is mostly just used for trigger-firing decisions, so you'd only notice a problem if a trigger cared whether a generated column had been updated. I'd complained about this back in May, but then forgot about it until bug #16671 from Michael Paul Killian revived the issue. Back-patch to v12 where this field was introduced. If existing stored rules contain any extraUpdatedCols values, they'll be ignored because the rewriter will overwrite them, so the bug will be fixed even for existing rules. (But note that if someone were to update to 13.1 or 12.5, store some rules with UPDATEs on tables having generated columns, and then downgrade to a prior minor version, they might observe issues similar to what this patch fixes. That seems unlikely enough to not be worth going to a lot of effort to fix.)

* Accept relations of any kind in LOCK TABLEAlvaro Herrera2020-10-27

* Fix corner case for a BEFORE ROW UPDATE trigger returning OLD.Tom Lane2020-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the old row has any "missing" attributes that are supposed to be retrieved from an associated tuple descriptor, the wrong things happened because the trigger result is shoved directly into an executor slot that lacks the missing-attribute data. Notably, CHECK-constraint verification would incorrectly see those columns as NULL, and so would RETURNING-list evaluation. Band-aid around this by forcibly expanding the tuple before passing it to the trigger function. (IMO it was a fundamental misdesign to put the missing-attribute data into tuple constraints, which so much of the system considers to be optional. But we're probably stuck with that now, and will have to continue to apply band-aids as we find other places with similar issues.) Back-patch to v12. v11 would also have the issue, except that commit 920311ab1 already applied a similar band-aid. That forced expansion in more cases than seem really necessary, though, so this isn't a directly equivalent fix.

This was implemented in 86f575948c77 by recursing in trigger.c, but that's the wrong place; use ATSimpleRecursion instead, which behaves properly.

* Fix list-munging bug that broke SQL function result coercions.Tom Lane2020-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 913bbd88d, check_sql_fn_retval() can either insert type coercion steps in-line in the Query that produces the SQL function's results, or generate a new top-level Query to perform the coercions, if modifying the Query's output in-place wouldn't be safe. However, it appears that the latter case has never actually worked, because the code tried to inject the new Query back into the query list it was passed ... which is not the list that will be used for later processing when we execute the SQL function "normally" (without inlining it). So we ended up with no coercion happening at run-time, leading to wrong results or crashes depending on the datatypes involved. While the regression tests look like they cover this area well enough, through a huge bit of bad luck all the test cases that exercise the separate-Query path were checking either inline-able cases (which accidentally didn't have the bug) or cases that are no-ops at runtime (e.g., varchar to text), so that the failure to perform the coercion wasn't obvious. The fact that the cases that don't work weren't allowed at all before v13 probably contributed to not noticing the problem sooner, too. To fix, get rid of the separate "flat" list of Query nodes and instead pass the real two-level list that is going to be used later. I chose to make the same change in check_sql_fn_statements(), although that has no actual bug, just so that we don't need that data structure at all. This is an API change, as evidenced by the adjustments needed to callers outside functions.c. That's a bit scary to be doing in a released branch, but so far as I can tell from a quick search, there are no outside callers of these functions (and they are sufficiently specific to our semantics for SQL-language functions that it's not apparent why any extension would need to call them). In any case, v13 already changed the API of check_sql_fn_retval() compared to prior branches. Per report from pinker. Back-patch to v13 where this code came in.

* Relax some asserts in merge join costing codeDavid Rowley2020-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the planner, it was possible, given an extreme enough case containing a large number of joins for the number of estimated rows to become infinite. This could cause problems in initial_cost_mergejoin() where we perform some calculations based on those row estimates. A problem case, presented by Onder Kalaci showed an Assert failure from an Assert checking outerstartsel <= outerendsel. In his test case this was effectively NaN <= Inf, which is false. The NaN outerstartsel came from multiplying the infinite outer_path_rows by 0.0. In master, this problem was fixed by a90c950fc, however, that fix was too invasive for the backbranches. Here we just relax the Asserts to allow them to pass. The worst that appears to happen from this is that we show NaN cost values and infinite row estimates in EXPLAIN. add_path() would have had a hard time doing anything useful with such costs, but that does not really matter as if the row estimates were even close to accurate, such plan would not complete this side of the heat death of the universe.

* 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.

* Handle EACCES errors from kevent() better.Thomas Munro2020-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While registering for postmaster exit events, we have to handle a couple of edge cases where the postmaster is already gone. Commit 815c2f09 missed one: EACCES must surely imply that PostmasterPid no longer belongs to our postmaster process (or alternatively an unexpected permissions model has been imposed on us).

* Restore replication protocol's duplicate command tagsAlvaro Herrera2020-10-14

The fact that the replication protocol was broken was not noticed because all our test cases use an optimized code path that exits early, failing to verify that the behavior is correct for non-optimized cases. Put them back. Also document this protocol quirk. Add a test case that shows the failure. It might still succeed even without the patch when run on a fast enough server, but it suffices to show the bug in enough cases that it would be noticed in buildfarm.

* Fix memory leak when guc.c decides a setting can't be applied now.Tom Lane2020-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The prohibitValueChange code paths in set_config_option(), which are executed whenever we re-read a PGC_POSTMASTER variable from postgresql.conf, neglected to free anything before exiting. 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.

* Fix optimization hazard in gram.y's makeOrderedSetArgs(), redux.Tom Lane2020-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that commit cf63c641c, which intended to prevent misoptimization of the result-building step in makeOrderedSetArgs, didn't go far enough: buildfarm member hornet's version of xlc is now optimizing back to the old, broken behavior in which list_length(directargs) is fetched only after list_concat() has changed that value.

* 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. It turns out that commit 52ad1e659 already built all the necessary infrastructure to support error-free comparisons, but neglected to actually use it in the main-line code paths. Fix that, do a little bit of code style review, and remove the now-duplicate logic in jsonpath_exec.c. Back-patch to v13 where 52ad1e659 came in. We could take this back further by back-patching said infrastructure, but given the small number of complaints so far, I don't feel a great need to.
