* Solve cross-version-upgrade testing problem induced by 1fb57af92.Tom Lane2019-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Renaming varchar_transform to varchar_support had a side effect I hadn't foreseen: the core regression tests leave around a transform object that relies on that function, so the name change breaks cross-version upgrade tests, because the name used in the older branches doesn't match. Since the dependency on varchar_transform was chosen with the aid of a dartboard anyway (it would surely not work as a language transform support function), fix by just choosing a different random builtin function with the right signature. Also add some comments explaining why this isn't horribly unsafe. I chose to make the same substitution in a couple of other copied-and-pasted test cases, for consistency, though those aren't directly contributing to the testing problem. Per buildfarm. Back-patch, else it doesn't fix the problem.
* Fix test_rls_hooks to assign expression collations properly.Tom Lane2018-12-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | This module overlooked this necessary fixup step on the results of transformWhereClause(). It accidentally worked anyway, because the constructed expression involved type "name" which is not collatable, but it fell over while I was experimenting with changing "name" to be collatable. Back-patch, not because there's any live bug here in back branches, but because somebody might use this code as a model for some real application and then not understand why it doesn't work.

* Add a temp-install prerequisite to "check"-like targets not having one.Noah Misch2017-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | Makefile.global assigns this prerequisite to every target named "check", but similar targets must mention it explicitly. Affected targets failed, tested $PATH binaries, or tested a stale temporary installation. The src/test/modules examples worked properly when called as "make -C src/test/modules/$FOO check", but "make -j" allowed the test to start before the temporary installation was in place. Back-patch to 9.5, where commit dcae5faccab64776376d354decda0017c648bb53 introduced the shared temp-install.
* Don't use bgw_main even to specify in-core bgworker entrypoints.Robert Haas2017-03-31

On master, completely remove the bgw_main field completely, since there is no situation in which it is safe for an EXEC_BACKEND build. On 9.6 and 9.5, leave the field intact to avoid breaking things for third-party code that doesn't care about working under EXEC_BACKEND. Prior to 9.5, there are no in-core bgworker entrypoints.

* Use TSConfigRelationId in AlterTSConfiguration()Stephen Frost2016-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we are altering a text search configuration, we are getting the tuple from pg_ts_config and using its OID, so use TSConfigRelationId when invoking any post-alter hooks and setting the object address. Further, in the functions called from AlterTSConfiguration(), we're saving information about the command via EventTriggerCollectAlterTSConfig(), so we should be setting commandCollected to true. Also add a regression test to test_ddl_deparse for ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION.

* Fix commit_ts for FrozenXid and BootstrapXidAlvaro Herrera2016-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, requesting commit timestamp for transactions FrozenTransactionId and BootstrapTransactionId resulted in an error. But since those values can validly appear in committed tuples' Xmin, this behavior is unhelpful and error prone: each caller would have to special-case those values before requesting timestamp data for an Xid. We already have a perfectly good interface for returning "the Xid you requested is too old for us to have commit TS data for it", so let's use that instead. Backpatch to 9.5, where commit timestamps appeared. Author: Craig Ringer Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAMsr+YFM5Q=+ry3mKvWEqRTxrB0iU3qUSRnS28nz6FJYtBwhJg@mail.gmail.com

* Don't CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS between WaitLatch and ResetLatch.Tom Lane2016-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This coding pattern creates a race condition, because if an interesting interrupt happens after we've checked InterruptPending but before we reset our latch, the latch-setting done by the signal handler would get lost, and then we might block at WaitLatch in the next iteration without ever noticing the interrupt condition. You can put the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS before WaitLatch or after ResetLatch, but not between them. Aside from fixing the bugs, add some explanatory comments to latch.h to perhaps forestall the next person from making the same mistake. In HEAD, also replace gather_readnext's direct call of HandleParallelMessages with CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS. It does not seem clean or useful for this one caller to bypass ProcessInterrupts and go straight to HandleParallelMessages; not least because that fails to consider the InterruptPending flag, resulting in useless work both here (if InterruptPending isn't set) and in the next CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS call (if it is). This thinko seems to have been introduced in the initial coding of storage/ipc/shm_mq.c (commit ec9037df2), and then blindly copied into all the subsequent parallel-query support logic. Back-patch relevant hunks to 9.4 to extirpate the error everywhere. Discussion: <1661.1469996911@sss.pgh.pa.us>

* ALTER TABLE .. FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITYStephen Frost2015-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To allow users to force RLS to always be applied, even for table owners, add ALTER TABLE .. FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY. row_security=off overrides FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY, to ensure pg_dump output is complete (by default). Also add SECURITY_NOFORCE_RLS context to avoid data corruption when ALTER TABLE .. FORCE ROW SECURITY is being used. The SECURITY_NOFORCE_RLS security context is used only during referential integrity checks and is only considered in check_enable_rls() after we have already checked that the current user is the owner of the relation (which should always be the case during referential integrity checks). Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was added.
* RLS refactoringStephen Frost2015-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This refactors rewrite/rowsecurity.c to simplify the handling of the default deny case (reducing the number of places where we check for and add the default deny policy from three to one) by splitting up the retrival of the policies from the application of them. This also allowed us to do away with the policy_id field. A policy_name field was added for WithCheckOption policies and is used in error reporting, when available. Patch by Dean Rasheed, with various mostly cosmetic changes by me. Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was introduced to avoid unnecessary differences, since we're still in alpha, per discussion with Robert.
* Re-add BRIN isolation testAlvaro Herrera2015-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | This time, instead of using a core isolation test, put it on its own test module; this way it can require the pageinspect module to be present before running. The module's Makefile is loosely modeled after test_decoding's, so that it's easy to add further tests for either pg_regress or isolationtester later. Backpatch to 9.5.
* RLS: Keep deny policy when only restrictive existStephen Frost2015-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Only remove the default deny policy when a permissive policy exists (either from the hook or defined by the user). If only restrictive policies exist then no rows will be visible, as restrictive policies shouldn't make rows visible. To address this requirement, a single "USING (true)" permissive policy can be created. Update the test_rls_hooks regression tests to create the necessary "USING (true)" permissive policy. Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was added. Per discussion with Dean.

* Create new ParseExprKind for use by policy expressions.Joe Conway2015-07-29

* Redirect install output of make check into a log fileAndrew Dunstan2015-07-23

It is now saved in /tmp_install/log, which is created once per invocation of any make target doing regression tests. Along the way, add a missing /log/ entry to test_ddl_deparse's .gitignore.

* 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.

* Improve qual pushdown for RLS and SB viewsStephen Frost2015-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original security barrier view implementation, on which RLS is built, prevented all non-leakproof functions from being pushed down to below the view, even when the function was not receiving any data from the view. This optimization improves on that situation by, instead of checking strictly for non-leakproof functions, it checks for Vars being passed to non-leakproof functions and allows functions which do not accept arguments or whose arguments are not from the current query level (eg: constants can be particularly useful) to be pushed down. As discussed, this does mean that a function which is pushed down might gain some idea that there are rows meeting a certain criteria based on the number of times the function is called, but this isn't a particularly new issue and the documentation in rules.sgml already addressed similar covert-channel risks. That documentation is updated to reflect that non-leakproof functions may be pushed down now, if they meet the above-described criteria. Author: Dean Rasheed, with a bit of rework to make things clearer, along with comment and documentation updates from me.
* Fix file comment for test_rls_hooks.cStephen Frost2015-04-24

* Perform RLS WITH CHECK before constraints, etcStephen Frost2015-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The RLS capability is built on top of the WITH CHECK OPTION system which was added for auto-updatable views, however, unlike WCOs on views (which are mandated by the SQL spec to not fire until after all other constraints and checks are done), it makes much more sense for RLS checks to happen earlier than constraint and uniqueness checks. This patch reworks the structure which holds the WCOs a bit to be explicitly either VIEW or RLS checks and the RLS-related checks are done prior to the constraint and uniqueness checks. This also allows better error reporting as we are now reporting when a violation is due to a WITH CHECK OPTION and when it's due to an RLS policy violation, which was independently noted by Craig Ringer as being confusing. The documentation is also updated to include a paragraph about when RLS WITH CHECK handling is performed, as there have been a number of questions regarding that and the documentation was previously silent on the matter. Author: Dean Rasheed, with some kabitzing and comment changes by me.
* Fix installcheck for test_rls_hooksStephen Frost2015-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by the buildfarm, test_rls_hooks wasn't functioning properly with a clean installcheck. test_rls_hooks needs to explicitly load the library with the hooks in it, to allow installcheck to work; using the --temp-config doesn't help since that isn't used when running installcheck and it isn't exactly fair to the buildfarm to modify the installed config prior to calling installcheck. Also, have test_rls_hooks clean up after itself.
* RLS fixes, new hooks, and new test moduleStephen Frost2015-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In prepend_row_security_policies(), defaultDeny was always true, so if there were any hook policies, the RLS policies on the table would just get discarded. Fixed to start off with defaultDeny as false and then properly set later if we detect that only the default deny policy exists for the internal policies. The infinite recursion detection in fireRIRrules() didn't properly manage the activeRIRs list in the case of WCOs, so it would incorrectly report infinite recusion if the same relation with RLS appeared more than once in the rtable, for example "UPDATE t ... FROM t ...". Further, the RLS expansion code in fireRIRrules() was handling RLS in the main loop through the rtable, which lead to RTEs being visited twice if they contained sublink subqueries, which prepend_row_security_policies() attempted to handle by exiting early if the RTE already had securityQuals. That doesn't work, however, since if the query involved a security barrier view on top of a table with RLS, the RTE would already have securityQuals (from the view) by the time fireRIRrules() was invoked, and so the table's RLS policies would be ignored. This is fixed in fireRIRrules() by handling RLS in a separate loop at the end, after dealing with any other sublink subqueries, thus ensuring that each RTE is only visited once for RLS expansion. The inheritance planner code didn't correctly handle non-target relations with RLS, which would get turned into subqueries during planning. Thus an update of the form "UPDATE t1 ... FROM t2 ..." where t1 has inheritance and t2 has RLS quals would fail. Fix by making sure to copy in and update the securityQuals when they exist for non-target relations. process_policies() was adding WCOs to non-target relations, which is unnecessary, and could lead to a lot of wasted time in the rewriter and the planner. Fix by only adding WCO policies when working on the result relation. Also in process_policies, we should be copying the USING policies to the WITH CHECK policies on a per-policy basis, fix by moving the copying up into the per-policy loop. Lastly, as noted by Dean, we were simply adding policies returned by the hook provided to the list of quals being AND'd, meaning that they would actually restrict records returned and there was no option to have internal policies and hook-based policies work together permissively (as all internal policies currently work). Instead, explicitly add support for both permissive and restrictive policies by having a hook for each and combining the results appropriately. To ensure this is all done correctly, add a new test module (test_rls_hooks) to test the various combinations of internal, permissive, and restrictive hook policies. Largely from Dean Rasheed (thanks!): CAEZATCVmFUfUOwwhnBTcgi6AquyjQ0-1fyKd0T3xBWJvn+xsFA@mail.gmail.com Author: Dean Rasheed, though I added the new hooks and test module.
* Tweak __attribute__-wrapping macros for better pgindent results.Tom Lane2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This improves on commit bbfd7edae5aa5ad5553d3c7e102f2e450d4380d4 by making two simple changes: * pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn(). Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed(). This reduces pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them. * attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not definitions. Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts, which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent but often were outright wrong anyway. (It does little good to put a noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.) In any case, if we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns. I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
* Add flags argument to dsm_create.Robert Haas2015-03-19
| | | | | | | | Right now, there's only one flag, DSM_CREATE_NULL_IF_MAXSEGMENTS, which suppresses the error that would normally be thrown when the maximum number of segments already exists, instead returning NULL. It might be useful to add more flags in the future, such as one to ignore allocation errors, but I haven't done that here.
* Add macros wrapping all usage of gcc's __attribute__.Andres Freund2015-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now __attribute__() was defined to be empty for all compilers but gcc. That's problematic because it prevents using it in other compilers; which is necessary e.g. for atomics portability. It's also just generally dubious to do so in a header as widely included as c.h. Instead add pg_attribute_format_arg, pg_attribute_printf, pg_attribute_noreturn macros which are implemented in the compilers that understand them. Also add pg_attribute_noreturn and pg_attribute_packed, but don't provide fallbacks, since they can affect functionality. This means that external code that, possibly unwittingly, relied on __attribute__ defined to be empty on !gcc compilers may now run into warnings or errors on those compilers. But there shouldn't be many occurances of that and it's hard to work around... Discussion: 54B58BA3.8040302@ohmu.fi Author: Oskari Saarenmaa, with some minor changes by me.

* Add a default local latch for use in signal handlers.Andres Freund2015-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To do so, move InitializeLatchSupport() into the new common process initialization functions, and add a new global variable MyLatch. MyLatch is usable as soon InitPostmasterChild() has been called (i.e. very early during startup). Initially it points to a process local latch that exists in all processes. InitProcess/InitAuxiliaryProcess then replaces that local latch with PGPROC->procLatch. During shutdown the reverse happens. This is primarily advantageous for two reasons: For one it simplifies dealing with the shared process latch, especially in signal handlers, because instead of having to check for MyProc, MyLatch can be used unconditionally. For another, a later patch that makes FEs/BE communication use latches, now can rely on the existence of a latch, even before having gone through InitProcess.

* Install kludges to fix check-world for src/test/modulesAlvaro Herrera2014-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check-world failed in a completely clean tree, because src/test/modules fail to build unless errcodes.h is generated first. To fix this, install a dependency in src/test/modules' Makefile so that the necessary file is generated. Even with this, running "make check" within individual module subdirs will still fail because the dependency is not considered there, but this case is less interesting and would be messier to fix. check-world still failed with the above fix in place, this time because dummy_seclabel used LOAD to load the dynamic library, which doesn't work because the @libdir@ (expanded by the makefile) is expanded to the final install path, not the temporary installation directory used by make check. To fix, tweak things so that CREATE EXTENSION can be used instead, which solves the problem because the library path is expanded by the backend, which is aware of the true libdir.

| | | | | | | | Rather than have the core security_label regression test depend on the dummy_seclabel module, have that part of the test be executed by dummy_seclabel itself directly. This simplifies the testing rig a bit; in particular it should silence the problems from the MSVC buildfarm phylum, which haven't yet gotten taught how to install src/test/modules.
