* Fix strsep() use for SCRAM secrets parsingPeter Eisentraut2024-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | The previous code (from commit 5d2e1cc117b) did not detect end of string correctly, so it would fail to error out if fewer than the expected number of fields were present, which could then later lead to a crash when NULL string pointers are accessed.

* Remove unused code for unlogged materialized views.Fujii Masao2024-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3bf3ab8c56 initially introduced support for unlogged materialized views, but this was later disallowed by commit 3223b25ff7. Additionally, commit d25f519107 added more code for handling unlogged materialized views. This commit cleans up all unused code related to them. If unlogged materialized views had been supported in any official release, psql would need to retain code to handle them for compatibility with older servers. However, since they were never included in an official release, this code is no longer necessary.

* Fix extreme skew detection in Parallel Hash Join.Thomas Munro2024-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After repartitioning the inner side of a hash join that would have exceeded the allowed size, we check if all the tuples from a parent partition moved to one child partition. That is evidence that it contains duplicate keys and later attempts to repartition will also fail, so we should give up trying to limit memory (for lack of a better fallback strategy). A thinko prevented the check from working correctly in partition 0 (the one that is partially loaded into memory already). After repartitioning, we should check for extreme skew if the *parent* partition's space_exhausted flag was set, not the child partition's. The consequence was repeated futile repartitioning until per-partition data exceeded various limits including "ERROR: invalid DSA memory alloc request size 1811939328", OS allocation failure, or temporary disk space errors. (We could also do something about some of those symptoms, but that's material for separate patches.) This problem only became likely when PostgreSQL 16 introduced support for Parallel Hash Right/Full Join, allowing NULL keys into the hash table. Repartitioning always leaves NULL in partition 0, no matter how many times you do it, because the hash value is all zero bits. That's unlikely for other hashed values, but they might still have caused wasted extra effort before giving up. Back-patch to all supported releases.

* Don't store intermediate hash values in ExprState->resvalueDavid Rowley2024-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | adf97c156 made it so ExprStates could support hashing and changed Hash Join to use that instead of manually extracting Datums from tuples and hashing them one column at a time. When hashing multiple columns or expressions, the code added in that commit stored the intermediate hash value in the ExprState's resvalue field. That was a mistake as steps may be injected into the ExprState between each hashing step that look at or overwrite the stored intermediate hash value. EEOP_PARAM_SET is an example of such a step. Here we fix this by adding a new dedicated field for storing intermediate hash values and adjust the code so that all apart from the final hashing step store their result in the intermediate field. In passing, rename a variable so that it's more aligned to the surrounding code and also so a few lines stay within the 80 char margin.

* Further refine _SPI_execute_plan's rule for atomic execution.Tom Lane2024-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2dc1deaea turns out to have been still a brick shy of a load, because CALL statements executing within a plpgsql exception block could still pass the wrong snapshot to stable functions within the CALL's argument list. That happened because standard_ProcessUtility forces isAtomicContext to true if IsTransactionBlock is true, which it always will be inside a subtransaction. Then ExecuteCallStmt would think it does not need to push a new snapshot --- but _SPI_execute_plan didn't do so either, since it thought it was in nonatomic mode. The best fix for this seems to be for _SPI_execute_plan to operate in atomic execution mode if IsSubTransaction() is true, even when the SPI context as a whole is non-atomic. This makes _SPI_execute_plan have the same rules about when non-atomic execution is allowed as _SPI_commit/_SPI_rollback have about when COMMIT/ROLLBACK are allowed, which seems appropriately symmetric. (If anyone ever tries to allow COMMIT/ROLLBACK inside a subtransaction, this would all need to be rethought ... but I'm unconvinced that such a thing could be logically consistent at all.) For further consistency, also check IsSubTransaction() in SPI_inside_nonatomic_context. That does not matter for its one present-day caller StartTransaction, which can't be reached inside a subtransaction. But if any other callers ever arise, they'd presumably want this definition. Per bug #18656 from Alexander Alehin. Back-patch to all supported branches, like previous fixes in this area. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18656-cade1780866ef66c@postgresql.org

* Reduce memory block size for decoded tuple storage to 8kB.Masahiko Sawada2024-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit a4ccc1cef introduced the Generation Context and modified the logical decoding process to use a Generation Context with a fixed block size of 8MB for storing tuple data decoded during logical decoding (i.e., rb->tup_context). Several reports have indicated that the logical decoding process can be terminated due to out-of-memory (OOM) situations caused by excessive memory usage in rb->tup_context. This issue can occur when decoding a workload involving several concurrent transactions, including a long-running transaction that modifies tuples. By design, the Generation Context does not free a memory block until all chunks within that block are released. Consequently, if tuples modified by the long-running transaction are stored across multiple memory blocks, these blocks remain allocated until the long-running transaction completes, leading to substantial memory fragmentation. The memory usage during logical decoding, tracked by rb->size, does not account for memory fragmentation, resulting in potentially much higher memory consumption than the value of the logical_decoding_work_mem parameter. Various improvement strategies were discussed in the relevant thread. This change reduces the block size of the Generation Context used in rb->tup_context from 8MB to 8kB. This modification significantly decreases the likelihood of substantial memory fragmentation occurring and is relatively straightforward to backport. Performance testing across multiple platforms has confirmed that this change will not introduce any performance degradation that would impact actual operation. Backport to all supported branches.

* Normalize nbtree truncated high key array behavior.Peter Geoghegan2024-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5bf748b8 taught nbtree ScalarArrayOp index scans to decide when and how to start the next primitive index scan based on physical index characteristics. This included rules for deciding whether to start a new primitive index scan (or whether to move onto the right sibling leaf page instead) that specifically consider truncated lower-order columns (-inf columns) from leaf page high keys. These omitted columns were treated as satisfying the scan's required scan keys, though only for scan keys marked required in the current scan direction (forward). Scan keys that didn't get this behavior (those marked required in the backwards direction only) usually didn't give the scan reasonable cause to reposition itself to a later leaf page (via another descent of the index in _bt_first), but _bt_advance_array_keys would nevertheless always give up by forcing another call to _bt_first. _bt_advance_array_keys was unwilling to allow the scan to continue onto the next leaf page, to reconsider whether we really should start another primitive scan based on the details of the sibling page's tuples. This didn't match its behavior with similar cases involving keys required in the current scan direction (forward), which seems unprincipled. It led to an excessive number of primitive scans/index descents for queries with a higher-order = array scan key (with dense, contiguous values) mixed with a lower-order required > or >= scan key. Bring > and >= strategy scan keys in line with other required scan key types: treat truncated -inf scan keys as having satisfied scan keys required in either scan direction (forwards and backwards alike) during array advancement. That way affected scans can continue to the right sibling leaf page. Advancement must now schedule an explicit recheck of the right sibling page's high key in cases involving > or >= scan keys. The recheck gives the scan a way to back out and start another primitive index scan (we can't just rely on _bt_checkkeys with > or >= scan keys). This work can be considered a stand alone optimization on top of the work from commit 5bf748b8. But it was written in preparation for an upcoming patch that will add skip scan to nbtree. In practice scans that use "skip arrays" will tend to be much more sensitive to any implementation deficiencies in this area.

* Correctly identify which EC members are computable at a plan node.Tom Lane2024-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | find_computable_ec_member() had the wrong mental model of what its primary caller prepare_sort_from_pathkeys() would do with the selected EquivalenceClass member expression. We will not compute the EC expression in a plan node atop the one returning the passed-in targetlist; rather, the EC expression will be computed as an additional column of that targetlist. So any Var or quasi-Var used in the given tlist is also available to the EC expression. In simple cases this makes no difference because the given tlist is just a list of Vars or quasi-Vars --- but if we are considering an appendrel member produced by flattening a UNION ALL, the tlist may contain expressions, resulting in failure to match and a "could not find pathkey item to sort" error. To fix, we can flatten both the tlist and the EC members with pull_var_clause(), and then just check for subset-ness, so that the code is actually shorter than before. While this bug is quite old, the present patch only works back to v13. We could possibly make it work in v12 by back-patching parts of 375398244. On the whole though I don't like the risk/reward ratio of that idea. v12's final release is next month, meaning there would be no chance to correct matters if the patch causes a regression. Since this failure has escaped notice for 14 years, it's likely nobody will hit it in the field with v12. Per bug #18652 from Alexander Lakhin.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PostgreSQL has for a long time mixed two BIO implementations, which can lead to subtle bugs and inconsistencies. This cleans up our BIO by just just setting up the methods we need. This patch does not introduce any functionality changes. The following methods are no longer defined due to not being needed: - gets: Not used by libssl - puts: Not used by libssl - create: Sets up state not used by libpq - destroy: Not used since libpq use BIO_NOCLOSE, if it was used it close the socket from underneath libpq - callback_ctrl: Not implemented by sockets The following methods are defined for our BIO: - read: Used for reading arbitrary length data from the BIO. No change in functionality from the previous implementation. - write: Used for writing arbitrary length data to the BIO. No change in functionality from the previous implementation. - ctrl: Used for processing ctrl messages in the BIO (similar to ioctl). The only ctrl message which matters is BIO_CTRL_FLUSH used for writing out buffered data (or signal EOF and that no more data will be written). BIO_CTRL_FLUSH is mandatory to implement and is implemented as a no-op since there is no intermediate buffer to flush. BIO_CTRL_EOF is the out-of-band method for signalling EOF to read_ex based BIO's. Our BIO is not read_ex based but someone could accidentally call BIO_CTRL_EOF on us so implement mainly for completeness sake. As the implementation is no longer related to BIO_s_socket or calling SSL_set_fd, methods have been renamed to reference the PGconn and Port types instead. This also reverts back to using BIO_set_data, with our fallback, as a small optimization as BIO_set_app_data require the ex_data mechanism in OpenSSL.

* Adjust EXPLAIN's output for disabled nodesDavid Rowley2024-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | c01743aa4 added EXPLAIN output to display the plan node's disabled_node count whenever that count is above 0. Seemingly, there weren't many people who liked that output as each parent of a disabled node would also have a "Disabled Nodes" output due to the way disabled_nodes is accumulated towards the root plan node. It was often hard and sometimes impossible to figure out which nodes were disabled from looking at EXPLAIN. You might think it would be possible to manually add up the numbers from the "Disabled Nodes" output of a given node's children to figure out if that node has a higher disabled_nodes count than its children, but that wouldn't have worked for Append and Merge Append nodes if some disabled child nodes were run-time pruned during init plan. Those children are not displayed in EXPLAIN. Here we attempt to improve this output by only showing "Disabled: true" against only the nodes which are explicitly disabled themselves. That seems to be the output that's desired by the most people who voiced their opinion. This is done by summing up the disabled_nodes of the given node's children and checking if that number is less than the disabled_nodes of the current node. This commit also fixes a bug in make_sort() which was neglecting to set the Sort's disabled_nodes field. This should have copied what was done in cost_sort(), but it hadn't been updated. With the new output, the choice to not maintain that field properly was clearly wrong as the disabled-ness of the node was attributed to the Sort's parent instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9391f7152 added a "PlannerInfo *root" parameter to estimate_array_length, but failed to consider the possibility that NULL would be passed for that, leading to a null pointer dereference.

However, as long as eval_const_expressions is documented to accept NULL for root, similar hazards would remain. For now, let's just do the narrow fix of hardening estimate_array_length to not crash.

* Apply GUC name from central table in more places of guc.cMichael Paquier2024-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The name extracted from the record of the GUC tables is applied to more internal places of guc.c. This change has the advantage to simplify parse_and_validate_value(), where the "name" was only used in elog messages, while it was required to match with the name from the GUC record. pg_parameter_aclcheck() now passes the name of the GUC from its record in two places rather than the caller's argument. The value given to this function goes through convert_GUC_name_for_parameter_acl() that does a simple ASCII downcasing. Few GUCs mix character casing in core; one test is added for one of these code paths with "IntervalStyle".

* Allow pushdown of HAVING clauses with grouping setsRichard Guo2024-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases, we may want to transfer a HAVING clause into WHERE in hopes of eliminating tuples before aggregation instead of after. Previously, we couldn't do this if there were any nonempty grouping sets, because we didn't have a way to tell if the HAVING clause referenced any columns that were nullable by the grouping sets, and moving such a clause into WHERE could potentially change the results. Now, with expressions marked nullable by grouping sets with the RT index of the RTE_GROUP RTE, it is much easier to identify those clauses that reference any nullable-by-grouping-sets columns: we just need to check if the RT index of the RTE_GROUP RTE is present in the clause. For other HAVING clauses, they can be safely pushed down. Author: Richard Guo Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAMbWs4-NpzPgtKU=hgnvyn+J-GanxQCjrUi7piNzZ=upiCV=2Q@mail.gmail.com
* Consider explicit incremental sort for mergejoinsRichard Guo2024-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a mergejoin, if the given outer path or inner path is not already well enough ordered, we need to do an explicit sort. Currently, we only consider explicit full sort and do not account for incremental sort. In this patch, for the outer path of a mergejoin, we choose to use explicit incremental sort if it is enabled and there are presorted keys. For the inner path, though, we cannot use incremental sort because it does not support mark/restore at present. The rationale is based on the assumption that incremental sort is always faster than full sort when there are presorted keys, a premise that has been applied in various parts of the code. In addition, the current cost model tends to favor incremental sort as being cheaper than full sort in the presence of presorted keys, making it reasonable not to consider full sort in such cases. It could be argued that what if a mergejoin with an incremental sort as the outer path is selected as the inner path of another mergejoin. However, this should not be a problem, because mergejoin itself does not support mark/restore either, and we will add a Material node on top of it anyway in this case (see final_cost_mergejoin). There is one ensuing plan change in the regression tests, and we have to modify that test case to ensure that it continues to test what it is intended to. No backpatch as this could result in plan changes.

* Introduce two fields in EState to track parallel worker activityMichael Paquier2024-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These fields can be set by executor nodes to record how many parallel workers were planned to be launched and how many of them have been actually launched within the number initially planned.

These fields will be used by some follow-up patches to populate other parts of the system with their data.

* bufmgr/smgr: Don't cross segment boundaries in StartReadBuffers()Andres Freund2024-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With real AIO it doesn't make sense to cross segment boundaries with one IO. Add smgrmaxcombine() to allow upper layers to query which buffers can be merged. We could continue to cross segment boundaries when not using AIO, but it doesn't really make sense, because md.c will never be able to perform the read across the segment boundary in one system call. Which means we'll mark more buffers as undergoing IO than really makes sense - if another backend desires to read the same blocks, it'll be blocked longer than necessary. So it seems better to just never cross the boundary.

* Fix Y2038 issues with MyStartTime.Nathan Bossart2024-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several places treat MyStartTime as a "long", which is only 32 bits wide on some platforms. In reality, MyStartTime is a pg_time_t, i.e., a signed 64-bit integer. This will lead to interesting bugs on the aforementioned systems in 2038 when signed 32-bit integers are no longer sufficient to store Unix time (e.g., "pg_ctl start" hanging). To fix, ensure that MyStartTime is handled as a 64-bit value everywhere. (Of course, users will need to ensure that time_t is 64 bits wide on their system, too.)

* Restrict password hash length.Nathan Bossart2024-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 6aa44060a3 removed pg_authid's TOAST table because the only varlena column is rolpassword, which cannot be de-TOASTed during authentication because we haven't selected a database yet and cannot read pg_class. Since that change, attempts to set password hashes that require out-of-line storage will fail with a "row is too big" error. This error message might be confusing to users. This commit places a limit on the length of password hashes so that attempts to set long password hashes will fail with a more user-friendly error. The chosen limit of 512 bytes should be sufficient to avoid "row is too big" errors independent of BLCKSZ, but it should also be lenient enough for all reasonable use-cases (or at least all the use-cases we could imagine).
