* Support ALTER THING .. DEPENDS ON EXTENSIONAlvaro Herrera2016-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new dependency type which marks an object as depending on an extension, such that if the extension is dropped, the object automatically goes away; and also, if the database is dumped, the object is included in the dump output. Currently the grammar supports this for indexes, triggers, materialized views and functions only, although the utility code is generic so adding support for more object types is a matter of touching the parser rules only.

* Support CREATE ACCESS METHODAlvaro Herrera2016-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This enables external code to create access methods. This is useful so that extensions can add their own access methods which can be formally tracked for dependencies, so that DROP operates correctly. Also, having explicit support makes pg_dump work correctly. Currently only index AMs are supported, but we expect different types to be added in the future.

* Add simple VACUUM progress reporting.Robert Haas2016-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | There's a lot more that could be done here yet - in particular, this reports only very coarse-grained information about the index vacuuming phase - but even as it stands, the new pg_stat_progress_vacuum can tell you quite a bit about what a long-running vacuum is actually doing.

* Rework internals of changing a type's ownershipAlvaro Herrera2015-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is necessary so that REASSIGN OWNED does the right thing with composite types, to wit, that it also alters ownership of the type's pg_class entry -- previously, the pg_class entry remained owned by the original user, which caused later other failures such as the new owner's inability to use ALTER TYPE to rename an attribute of the affected composite. Also, if the original owner is later dropped, the pg_class entry becomes owned by a non-existant user which is bogus. To fix, create a new routine AlterTypeOwner_oid which knows whether to pass the request to ATExecChangeOwner or deal with it directly, and use that in shdepReassignOwner rather than calling AlterTypeOwnerInternal directly. AlterTypeOwnerInternal is now simpler in that it only modifies the pg_type entry and recurses to handle a possible array type; higher-level tasks are handled by either AlterTypeOwner directly or AlterTypeOwner_oid. I took the opportunity to add a few more objects to the test rig for REASSIGN OWNED, so that more cases are exercised. Additional ones could be added for superuser-only-ownable objects (such as FDWs and event triggers) but I didn't want to push my luck by adding a new superuser to the tests on a backpatchable bug fix. Per bug #13666 reported by Chris Pacejo. Backpatch to 9.5. (I would back-patch this all the way back, except that it doesn't apply cleanly in 9.4 and earlier because 59367fdf9 wasn't backpatched. If we decide that we need this in earlier branches too, we should backpatch both.)
* Handle policies during DROP OWNED BYStephen Frost2015-12-11
| | | | | | | | | | DROP OWNED BY handled GRANT-based ACLs but was not removing roles from policies. Fix that by having DROP OWNED BY remove the role specified from the list of roles the policy (or policies) apply to, or the entire policy (or policies) if it only applied to the role specified. As with ACLs, the DROP OWNED BY caller must have permission to modify the policy or a WARNING is thrown and no change is made to the policy.

* Disallow converting a table to a view if row security is present.Joe Conway2015-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | When DefineQueryRewrite() is about to convert a table to a view, it checks the table for features unavailable to views. For example, it rejects tables having triggers. It omits to reject tables having relrowsecurity or a pg_policy record. Fix that.

* Put back a backwards-compatible version of sampling support functions.Tom Lane2015-05-18
| | | | | | | | | Commit 83e176ec18d2a91dbea1d0d1bd94c38dc47cd77c removed the longstanding support functions for block sampling without any consideration of the impact this would have on third-party FDWs. The new API is not notably more functional for FDWs than the old, so forcing them to change doesn't seem like a good thing. We can provide the old API as a wrapper (more or less) around the new one for a minimal amount of extra code.
* Support GROUPING SETS, CUBE and ROLLUP.Andres Freund2015-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns grouped by in other sets set to NULL. This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise, grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over the underlying data. The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort & aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data. The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of implementation. Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple, avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means. A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might be, the function name has to be quoted. Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

* Allow on-the-fly capture of DDL event detailsAlvaro Herrera2015-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This feature lets user code inspect and take action on DDL events. Whenever a ddl_command_end event trigger is installed, DDL actions executed are saved to a list which can be inspected during execution of a function attached to ddl_command_end. The set-returning function pg_event_trigger_ddl_commands can be used to list actions so captured; it returns data about the type of command executed, as well as the affected object. This is sufficient for many uses of this feature. For the cases where it is not, we also provide a "command" column of a new pseudo-type pg_ddl_command, which is a pointer to a C structure that can be accessed by C code. The struct contains all the info necessary to completely inspect and even reconstruct the executed command. There is no actual deparse code here; that's expected to come later. What we have is enough infrastructure that the deparsing can be done in an external extension. The intention is that we will add some deparsing code in a later release, as an in-core extension. A new test module is included. It's probably insufficient as is, but it should be sufficient as a starting point for a more complete and future-proof approach.

* Rationalize vacuuming options and parametersAlvaro Herrera2015-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were involving the parser too much in setting up initial vacuuming parameters. This patch moves that responsibility elsewhere to simplify code, and also to make future additions easier. To do this, create a new struct VacuumParams which is filled just prior to vacuum execution, instead of at parse time; for user-invoked vacuuming this is set up in a new function ExecVacuum, while autovacuum sets it up by itself. While at it, add a new member VACOPT_SKIPTOAST to enum VacuumOption, only set by autovacuum, which is used to disable vacuuming of the toast table instead of the old do_toast parameter; this relieves the argument list of vacuum() and some callees a bit. This partially makes up for having added more arguments in an effort to avoid having autovacuum from constructing a VacuumStmt parse node. Author: Michael Paquier.

* Change many routines to return ObjectAddress rather than OIDAlvaro Herrera2015-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The changed routines are mostly those that can be directly called by ProcessUtilitySlow; the intention is to make the affected object information more precise, in support for future event trigger changes. Originally it was envisioned that the OID of the affected object would be enough, and in most cases that is correct, but upon actually implementing the event trigger changes it turned out that ObjectAddress is more widely useful. Additionally, some command execution routines grew an output argument that's an object address which provides further info about the executed command. To wit: * for ALTER DOMAIN / ADD CONSTRAINT, it corresponds to the address of the new constraint * for ALTER OBJECT / SET SCHEMA, it corresponds to the address of the schema that originally contained the object. * for ALTER EXTENSION {ADD, DROP} OBJECT, it corresponds to the address of the object added to or dropped from the extension.

* Use the typcache to cache constraints for domain types.Tom Lane2015-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we cached domain constraints for the life of a query, or really for the life of the FmgrInfo struct that was used to invoke domain_in() or domain_check(). But plpgsql (and probably other places) are set up to cache such FmgrInfos for the whole lifespan of a session, which meant they could be enforcing really stale sets of constraints. On the other hand, searching pg_constraint once per query gets kind of expensive too: testing says that as much as half the runtime of a trivial query such as "SELECT 0::domaintype" went into that. To fix this, delegate the responsibility for tracking a domain's constraints to the typcache, which has the infrastructure needed to detect syscache invalidation events that signal possible changes. This not only removes unnecessary repeat reads of pg_constraint, but ensures that we never apply stale constraint data: whatever we use is the current data according to syscache rules. Unfortunately, the current configuration of the system catalogs means we have to flush cached domain-constraint data whenever either pg_type or pg_constraint changes, which happens rather a lot (eg, creation or deletion of a temp table will do it). It might be worth rearranging things to split pg_constraint into two catalogs, of which the domain constraint one would probably be very low-traffic. That's a job for another patch though, and in any case this patch should improve matters materially even with that handicap. This patch makes use of the recently-added memory context reset callback feature to manage the lifespan of domain constraint caches, so that we don't risk deleting a cache that might be in the midst of evaluation. Although this is a bug fix as well as a performance improvement, no back-patch. There haven't been many if any field complaints about stale domain constraint checks, so it doesn't seem worth taking the risk of modifying data structures as basic as MemoryContexts in back branches.

Aside from being more self-documenting, this should help prevent bogus warnings from static code analyzers and perhaps compiler misoptimizations. This patch is just a down payment on eliminating the whole problem, but it gets rid of a lot of easy-to-fix cases. Note that the main problem with doing this is that one must no longer rely on computing sizeof(the containing struct), since the result would be compiler-dependent. Instead use offsetof(struct, lastfield). Autoconf also warns against spelling that offsetof(struct, lastfield[0]). Michael Paquier, review and additional fixes by me.
* Introduce and use infrastructure for interrupt processing during client reads.Andres Freund2015-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now large swathes of backend code ran inside signal handlers while reading commands from the client, to allow for speedy reaction to asynchronous events. Most prominently shared invalidation and NOTIFY handling. That means that complex code like the starting/stopping of transactions is run in signal handlers... The required code was fragile and verbose, and is likely to contain bugs. That approach also severely limited what could be done while communicating with the client. As the read might be from within openssl it wasn't safely possible to trigger an error, e.g. to cancel a backend in idle-in-transaction state. We did that in some cases, namely fatal errors, nonetheless. Now that FE/BE communication in the backend employs non-blocking sockets and latches to block, we can quite simply interrupt reads from signal handlers by setting the latch. That allows us to signal an interrupted read, which is supposed to be retried after returning from within the ssl library. As signal handlers now only need to set the latch to guarantee timely interrupt processing, remove a fair amount of complicated & fragile code from async.c and sinval.c. We could now actually start to process some kinds of interrupts, like sinval ones, more often that before, but that seems better done separately. This work will hopefully allow to handle cases like being blocked by sending data, interrupting idle transactions and similar to be implemented without too much effort. In addition to allowing getting rid of ImmediateInterruptOK, that is. Author: Andres Freund Reviewed-By: Heikki Linnakangas
* Rearrange explain.c's API so callers need not embed sizeof(ExplainState).Tom Lane2015-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | The folly of the previous arrangement was just demonstrated: there's no convenient way to add fields to ExplainState without breaking ABI, even if callers have no need to touch those fields. Since we might well need to do that again someday in back branches, let's change things so that only explain.c has to have sizeof(ExplainState) compiled into it. This costs one extra palloc() per EXPLAIN operation, which is surely pretty negligible.
* Improve performance of EXPLAIN with large range tables.Tom Lane2015-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of 9.3, ruleutils.c goes to some lengths to ensure that table and column aliases used in its output are unique. Of course this takes more time than was required before, which in itself isn't fatal. However, EXPLAIN was set up so that recalculation of the unique aliases was repeated for each subexpression printed in a plan. That results in O(N^2) time and memory consumption for large plan trees, which did not happen in older branches. Fortunately, the expensive work is the same across a whole plan tree, so there is no need to repeat it; we can do most of the initialization just once per query and re-use it for each subexpression. This buys back most (not all) of the performance loss since 9.2. We need an extra ExplainState field to hold the precalculated deparse context. That's no problem in HEAD, but in the back branches, expanding sizeof(ExplainState) seems risky because third-party extensions might have local variables of that struct type. So, in 9.4 and 9.3, introduce an auxiliary struct to keep sizeof(ExplainState) the same. We should refactor the APIs to avoid such local variables in future, but that's material for a separate HEAD-only commit. Per gripe from Alexey Bashtanov. Back-patch to 9.3 where the issue was introduced.

* Revamp the WAL record format.Heikki Linnakangas2014-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each WAL record now carries information about the modified relation and block(s) in a standardized format. That makes it easier to write tools that need that information, like pg_rewind, prefetching the blocks to speed up recovery, etc. There's a whole new API for building WAL records, replacing the XLogRecData chains used previously. The new API consists of XLogRegister* functions, which are called for each buffer and chunk of data that is added to the record. The new API also gives more control over when a full-page image is written, by passing flags to the XLogRegisterBuffer function. This also simplifies the XLogReadBufferForRedo() calls. The function can dig the relation and block number from the WAL record, so they no longer need to be passed as arguments. For the convenience of redo routines, XLogReader now disects each WAL record after reading it, copying the main data part and the per-block data into MAXALIGNed buffers. The data chunks are not aligned within the WAL record, but the redo routines can assume that the pointers returned by XLogRecGet* functions are. Redo routines are now passed the XLogReaderState, which contains the record in the already-disected format, instead of the plain XLogRecord. The new record format also makes the fixed size XLogRecord header smaller, by removing the xl_len field. The length of the "main data" portion is now stored at the end of the WAL record, and there's a separate header after XLogRecord for it. The alignment padding at the end of XLogRecord is also removed. This compansates for the fact that the new format would otherwise be more bulky than the old format.

* Code review for row security.Stephen Frost2014-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Buildfarm member tick identified an issue where the policies in the relcache for a relation were were being replaced underneath a running query, leading to segfaults while processing the policies to be added to a query. Similar to how TupleDesc RuleLocks are handled, add in a equalRSDesc() function to check if the policies have actually changed and, if not, swap back the rsdesc field (using the original instead of the temporairly built one; the whole structure is swapped and then specific fields swapped back). This now passes a CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS for me and should resolve the buildfarm error. In addition to addressing this, add a new chapter in Data Definition under Privileges which explains row security and provides examples of its usage, change \d to always list policies (even if row security is disabled- but note that it is disabled, or enabled with no policies), rework check_role_for_policy (it really didn't need the entire policy, but it did need to be using has_privs_of_role()), and change the field in pg_class to relrowsecurity from relhasrowsecurity, based on Heikki's suggestion. Also from Heikki, only issue SET ROW_SECURITY in pg_restore when talking to a 9.5+ server, list Bypass RLS in \du, and document --enable-row-security options for pg_dump and pg_restore. Lastly, fix a number of minor whitespace and typo issues from Heikki, Dimitri, add a missing #include, per Peter E, fix a few minor variable-assigned-but-not-used and resource leak issues from Coverity and add tab completion for role attribute bypassrls as well.
* Row-Level Security Policies (RLS)Stephen Frost2014-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Building on the updatable security-barrier views work, add the ability to define policies on tables to limit the set of rows which are returned from a query and which are allowed to be added to a table. Expressions defined by the policy for filtering are added to the security barrier quals of the query, while expressions defined to check records being added to a table are added to the with-check options of the query. New top-level commands are CREATE/ALTER/DROP POLICY and are controlled by the table owner. Row Security is able to be enabled and disabled by the owner on a per-table basis using ALTER TABLE .. ENABLE/DISABLE ROW SECURITY. Per discussion, ROW SECURITY is disabled on tables by default and must be enabled for policies on the table to be used. If no policies exist on a table with ROW SECURITY enabled, a default-deny policy is used and no records will be visible. By default, row security is applied at all times except for the table owner and the superuser. A new GUC, row_security, is added which can be set to ON, OFF, or FORCE. When set to FORCE, row security will be applied even for the table owner and superusers. When set to OFF, row security will be disabled when allowed and an error will be thrown if the user does not have rights to bypass row security. Per discussion, pg_dump sets row_security = OFF by default to ensure that exports and backups will have all data in the table or will error if there are insufficient privileges to bypass row security. A new option has been added to pg_dump, --enable-row-security, to ask pg_dump to export with row security enabled. A new role capability, BYPASSRLS, which can only be set by the superuser, is added to allow other users to be able to bypass row security using row_security = OFF. Many thanks to the various individuals who have helped with the design, particularly Robert Haas for his feedback. Authors include Craig Ringer, KaiGai Kohei, Adam Brightwell, Dean Rasheed, with additional changes and rework by me. Reviewers have included all of the above, Greg Smith, Jeff McCormick, and Robert Haas.
* Add rmgr callback to name xlog record types for display purposes.Andres Freund2014-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is primarily useful for the upcoming pg_xlogdump --stats feature, but also allows to remove some duplicated code in the rmgr_desc routines. Due to the separation and harmonization, the output of dipsplayed records changes somewhat. But since this isn't enduser oriented content that's ok. It's potentially desirable to further change pg_xlogdump's display of records. It previously wasn't possible to show the record type separately from the description forcing it to be in the last column. But that's better done in a separate commit.

* Have CREATE TABLE AS and REFRESH return an OIDAlvaro Herrera2014-08-25
| | | | | | Other DDL commands are already returning the OID, which is required for future additional event trigger work. This is merely making these commands in line with the rest of utility command support.
* Implement ALTER TABLE .. SET LOGGED / UNLOGGEDAlvaro Herrera2014-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | This enables changing permanent (logged) tables to unlogged and vice-versa. (Docs for ALTER TABLE / SET TABLESPACE got shuffled in an order that hopefully makes more sense than the original.)

* Rework 'MOVE ALL' to 'ALTER .. ALL IN TABLESPACE'Stephen Frost2014-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | As 'ALTER TABLESPACE .. MOVE ALL' really didn't change the tablespace but instead changed objects inside tablespaces, it made sense to rework the syntax and supporting functions to operate under the 'ALTER (TABLE|INDEX|MATERIALIZED VIEW)' syntax and to be in tablecmds.c. Pointed out by Alvaro, who also suggested the new syntax. Back-patch to 9.4.
* Implement IMPORT FOREIGN SCHEMA.Tom Lane2014-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | This command provides an automated way to create foreign table definitions that match remote tables, thereby reducing tedium and chances for error. In this patch, we provide the necessary core-server infrastructure and implement the feature fully in the postgres_fdw foreign-data wrapper. Other wrappers will throw a "feature not supported" error until/unless they are updated. Ronan Dunklau and Michael Paquier, additional work by me
