* Fix handling of extension membership when filling in a shell operator.Tom Lane2011-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding would result in deleting and not re-creating the extension membership pg_depend rows, since there was no CommandCounterIncrement that would allow recordDependencyOnCurrentExtension to see that the deletion had happened. Make it work like the shell type case, ie, keep the existing entries (and then throw an error if they're for the wrong extension). Per bug #6172 from Hitoshi Harada. Investigation and fix by Dimitri Fontaine.
* Fix trigger WHEN conditions when both BEFORE and AFTER triggers exist.Tom Lane2011-08-21
| | | | | | | | | Due to tuple-slot mismanagement, evaluation of WHEN conditions for AFTER ROW UPDATE triggers could crash if there had been a BEFORE ROW trigger fired for the same update. Fix by not trying to overload the use of estate->es_trig_tuple_slot. Per report from Yoran Heling. Back-patch to 9.0, when trigger WHEN conditions were introduced.
* Fix performance problem when building a lossy tidbitmap.Tom Lane2011-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by Sergey Koposov, repeated invocations of tbm_lossify can make building a large tidbitmap into an O(N^2) operation. To fix, make sure we remove more than the minimum amount of information per call, and add a fallback path to behave sanely if we're unable to fit the bitmap within the requested amount of memory. This has been wrong since the tidbitmap code was written, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Explain max_prepared_transactions requirement in isolation tests' README.Tom Lane2011-08-18
| | | | | | | | Now that we have a test that requires nondefault settings to pass, it seems like we'd better mention that detail in the directions about how to run the tests. Also do some very minor copy-editing.

* Add an SSI regression test that tests all interesting permutations in theHeikki Linnakangas2011-08-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | order of begin, prepare, and commit of three concurrent transactions that have conflicts between them. The test runs for a quite long time, and the expected output file is huge, but this test caught some serious bugs during development, so seems worthwhile to keep. The test uses prepared transactions, so it fails if the server has max_prepared_transactions=0. Because of that, it's marked as "ignore" in the schedule file. Dan Ports
* Strip whitespace from SQL blocks in the isolation test suite. This is purelyHeikki Linnakangas2011-08-18
| | | | cosmetic, it removes a lot of IMHO ugly whitespace from the expected output.
* Change PyInit_plpy to external linkagePeter Eisentraut2011-08-18
| | | | | | | Module initialization functions in Python 3 must have external linkage, because PyMODINIT_FUNC does dllexport on Windows-like platforms. Without this change, the build with Python 3 fails on Windows.
* Fix two issues in plpython's handling of composite results.Tom Lane2011-08-17
| | | | | | | | Dropped columns within a composite type were not handled correctly. Also, we did not check for whether a composite result type had changed since we cached the information about it. Jan UrbaƄski, per a bug report from Jean-Baptiste Quenot

* If backup-end record is not seen, and we reach end of recovery from aHeikki Linnakangas2011-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | streamed backup, throw an error and refuse to start up. The restore has not finished correctly in that case and the data directory is possibly corrupt. We already errored out in case of archive recovery, but could not during crash recovery because we couldn't distinguish between the case that pg_start_backup() was called and the database then crashed (must not error, data is OK), and the case that we're restoring from a backup and not all the needed WAL was replayed (data can be corrupt). To distinguish those cases, add a line to backup_label to indicate whether the backup was taken with pg_start/stop_backup(), or by streaming (ie. pg_basebackup). This is a different implementation than what I committed to 9.2 a week ago. That implementation was not back-patchable because it required re-initdb. Fujii Masao
* Move \r out of translatable stringsPeter Eisentraut2011-08-17
| | | | | The translation tools are very unhappy about seeing \r in translatable strings, so move it to a separate fprintf call.
* Forget about targeting catalog cache invalidations by tuple TID.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TID isn't stable enough: we might queue an sinval event before a VACUUM FULL, and then process it afterwards, when the target tuple no longer has the same TID. So we must invalidate entries on the basis of hash value only. The old coding can be shown to result in various bizarre, hard-to-reproduce errors in the presence of concurrent VACUUM FULLs on system catalogs, and could easily result in permanent catalog corruption, up to and including complete loss of tables. This commit is just a minimal fix that removes the unsafe comparison. We should remove transmission of the tuple TID from sinval messages altogether, and then arrange to suppress the extra message in the common case of a heap_update that doesn't change the key hashvalue. But that's going to be much more invasive, and will only produce a probably-marginal performance gain, so it doesn't seem like material for a back-patch. Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, VACUUM FULL refused to do any tuple moving if it found any INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuples (and CLUSTER would give up altogether), so there was no risk of moving a tuple that might be the subject of an unsent sinval message.
* Fix incorrect order of operations during sinval reset processing.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have to be sure that we have revalidated each nailed-in-cache relcache entry before we try to use it to load data for some other relcache entry. The introduction of "mapped relations" in 9.0 broke this, because although we updated the state kept in relmapper.c early enough, we failed to propagate that information into relcache entries soon enough; in particular, we could try to fetch pg_class rows out of pg_class before we'd updated its relcache entry's rd_node.relNode value from the map. This bug accounts for Dave Gould's report of failures after "vacuum full pg_class", and I believe that there is risk for other system catalogs as well. The core part of the fix is to copy relmapper data into the relcache entries during "phase 1" in RelationCacheInvalidate(), before they'll be used in "phase 2". To try to future-proof the code against other similar bugs, I also rearranged the order in which nailed relations are visited during phase 2: now it's pg_class first, then pg_class_oid_index, then other nailed relations. This should ensure that RelationClearRelation can apply RelationReloadIndexInfo to all nailed indexes without risking use of not-yet-revalidated relcache entries. Back-patch to 9.0 where the relation mapper was introduced.
* Preserve toast value OIDs in toast-swap-by-content for CLUSTER/VACUUM FULL.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This works around the problem that a catalog cache entry might contain a toast pointer that we try to dereference just as a VACUUM FULL completes on that catalog. We will see the sinval message on the cache entry when we acquire lock on the toast table, but by that point we've already told tuptoaster.c "here's the pointer to fetch", so it's difficult from a code structural standpoint to update the pointer before we use it. Much less painful to ensure that toast pointers are not invalidated in the first place. We have to add a bit of code to deal with the case that a value that previously wasn't toasted becomes so; but that should be a seldom-exercised corner case, so the inefficiency shouldn't be significant. Back-patch to 9.0. In prior versions, we didn't allow CLUSTER on system catalogs, and VACUUM FULL didn't result in reassignment of toast OIDs, so there was no problem.
* Fix race condition in relcache init file invalidation.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous code tried to synchronize by unlinking the init file twice, but that doesn't actually work: it leaves a window wherein a third process could read the already-stale init file but miss the SI messages that would tell it the data is stale. The result would be bizarre failures in catalog accesses, typically "could not read block 0 in file ..." later during startup. Instead, hold RelCacheInitLock across both the unlink and the sending of the SI messages. This is more straightforward, and might even be a bit faster since only one unlink call is needed. This has been wrong since it was put in (in 2002!), so back-patch to all supported releases.
* Adjust total size in pg_basebackup progress report when reality changesMagnus Hagander2011-08-16
| | | | | | | When streaming including WAL, the size estimate will always be incorrect, since we don't know how much WAL is included. To make sure the output doesn't look completely unreasonable, this patch increases the total size whenever we go past the estimate, to make sure we never go above 100%.
* Make pg_basebackup progress report translatablePeter Eisentraut2011-08-16
| | | | | Also fix a potential portability bug, because INT64_FORMAT is only guaranteed to be available with snprintf, not fprintf.

* Adjust regression tests for error message changePeter Eisentraut2011-08-15
|
* Add "Reason code" prefix to internal SSI error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | This makes it clearer that the error message is perhaps not supposed to be understood by users, and it also makes it somewhat clearer that it was not accidentally omitted from translation. Idea from Heikki Linnakangas, except that we don't mark "Reason code" for translation at this point, because that would make the implementation too cumbersome.
* Fix unsafe order of operations in foreign-table DDL commands.Tom Lane2011-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When updating or deleting a system catalog tuple, it's necessary to acquire RowExclusiveLock on the catalog before looking up the tuple; otherwise a concurrent VACUUM FULL on the catalog might move the tuple to a different TID before we can apply the update. Coding patterns that find the tuple via a table scan aren't at risk here, but when obtaining the tuple from a catalog cache, correct ordering is important; and several routines in foreigncmds.c got it wrong. Noted while running the regression tests in parallel with VACUUM FULL of assorted system catalogs. For consistency I moved all the heap_open calls to the starts of their functions, including a couple for which there was no actual bug. Back-patch to 8.4 where foreigncmds.c was added.
* Fix incorrect timeout handling during initial authentication transaction.Tom Lane2011-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The statement start timestamp was not set before initiating the transaction that is used to look up client authentication information in pg_authid. In consequence, enable_sig_alarm computed a wrong value (far in the past) for statement_fin_time. That didn't have any immediate effect, because the timeout alarm was set without reference to statement_fin_time; but if we subsequently blocked on a lock for a short time, CheckStatementTimeout would consult the bogus value when we cancelled the lock timeout wait, and then conclude we'd timed out, leading to immediate failure of the connection attempt. Thus an innocent "vacuum full pg_authid" would cause failures of concurrent connection attempts. Noted while testing other, more serious consequences of vacuum full on system catalogs. We should set the statement timestamp before StartTransactionCommand(), so that the transaction start timestamp is also valid. I'm not sure if there are any non-cosmetic effects of it not being valid, but the xact timestamp is at least sent to the statistics machinery. Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, the client authentication timeout was done outside any transaction and did not depend on this state to be valid.
* Unbreak legacy syntax "COMMENT ON RULE x IS y", with no relation name.Robert Haas2011-08-11
| | | | | check_object_ownership() isn't happy about the null relation pointer. We could fix it there, but this seems more future-proof.
* Back-patch assorted latch-related fixes.Tom Lane2011-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | Fix a whole bunch of signal handlers that had been hacked to do things that might change errno, without adding the necessary save/restore logic for errno. Also make some minor fixes in unix_latch.c, and clean up bizarre and unsafe scheme for disowning the process's latch. While at it, rename the PGPROC latch field to procLatch for consistency with 9.2. Issues noted while reviewing a patch by Peter Geoghegan.
* Measure WaitLatch's timeout parameter in milliseconds, not microseconds.Tom Lane2011-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | The original definition had the problem that timeouts exceeding about 2100 seconds couldn't be specified on 32-bit machines. Milliseconds seem like sufficient resolution, and finer grain than that would be fantasy anyway on many platforms. Back-patch to 9.1 so that this aspect of the latch API won't change between 9.1 and later releases. Peter Geoghegan
* Documentation improvement and minor code cleanups for the latch facility.Tom Lane2011-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve the documentation around weak-memory-ordering risks, and do a pass of general editorialization on the comments in the latch code. Make the Windows latch code more like the Unix latch code where feasible; in particular provide the same Assert checks in both implementations. Fix poorly-placed WaitLatch call in syncrep.c. This patch resolves, for the moment, concerns around weak-memory-ordering bugs in latch-related code: we have documented the restrictions and checked that existing calls meet them. In 9.2 I hope that we will install suitable memory barrier instructions in SetLatch/ResetLatch, so that their callers don't need to be quite so careful.
* Fix nested PlaceHolderVar expressions that appear only in targetlists.Tom Lane2011-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A PlaceHolderVar's expression might contain another, lower-level PlaceHolderVar. If the outer PlaceHolderVar is used, the inner one certainly will be also, and so we have to make sure that both of them get into the placeholder_list with correct ph_may_need values during the initial pre-scan of the query (before deconstruct_jointree starts). We did this correctly for PlaceHolderVars appearing in the query quals, but overlooked the issue for those appearing in the top-level targetlist; with the result that nested placeholders referenced only in the targetlist did not work correctly, as illustrated in bug #6154. While at it, add some error checking to find_placeholder_info to ensure that we don't try to create new placeholders after it's too late to do so; they have to all be created before deconstruct_jointree starts. Back-patch to 8.4 where the PlaceHolderVar mechanism was introduced.
* Clean up ill-advised attempt to invent a private set of Node tags.Tom Lane2011-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | Somebody thought it'd be cute to invent a set of Node tag numbers that were defined independently of, and indeed conflicting with, the main tag-number list. While this accidentally failed to fail so far, it would certainly lead to trouble as soon as anyone wanted to, say, apply copyObject to these node types. Clang was already complaining about the use of makeNode on these tags, and I think quite rightly so. Fix by pushing these node definitions into the mainstream, including putting replnodes.h where it belongs.
* Reduce PG_SYSLOG_LIMIT to 900 bytes.Tom Lane2011-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous limit of 1024 was set on the assumption that all modern syslog implementations have line length limits of 2KB or so. However, this is false, as at least Solaris and sysklogd truncate at only 1KB. 900 seems to leave enough room for the max likely length of the tacked-on prefixes, so let's go with that. As with the previous change, it doesn't seem wise to back-patch this into already-released branches; but it should be OK to sneak it into 9.1. Noah Misch
* Move CheckRecoveryConflictDeadlock() call to a safer place.Tom Lane2011-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This kluge was inserted in a spot apparently chosen at random: the lock manager's state is not yet fully set up for the wait, and in particular LockWaitCancel hasn't been armed by setting lockAwaited, so the ProcLock will not get cleaned up if the ereport is thrown. This seems to not cause any observable problem in trivial test cases, because LockReleaseAll will silently clean up the debris; but I was able to cause failures with tests involving subtransactions. Fixes breakage induced by commit c85c941470efc44494fd7a5f426ee85fc65c268c. Back-patch to all affected branches.
* Fix incorrect initialization of ProcGlobal->startupBufferPinWaitBufId.Tom Lane2011-08-02
| | | | | | | It was initialized in the wrong place and to the wrong value. With bad luck this could result in incorrect query-cancellation failures in hot standby sessions, should a HS backend be holding pin on buffer number 1 while trying to acquire a lock.
* Avoid integer overflow when LIMIT + OFFSET >= 2^63.Heikki Linnakangas2011-08-02
| | | | This fixes bug #6139 reported by Hitoshi Harada.
* Add host name resolution information to pg_hba.conf error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-07-31
| | | | This is to be able to analyze issues with host names in pg_hba.conf.
* Fix pg_restore's direct-to-database mode for standard_conforming_strings.Tom Lane2011-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_backup_db.c contained a mini SQL lexer with which it tried to identify boundaries between SQL commands, but that code was not designed to cope with standard_conforming_strings, and would get the wrong answer if a backslash immediately precedes a closing single quote in such a string, as per report from Julian Mehnle. The bug only affects direct-to-database restores from archive files made with standard_conforming_strings = on. Rather than complicating the code some more to try to fix that, let's just rip it all out. The only reason it was needed was to cope with COPY data embedded into ordinary archive entries, which was a layout that was used only for about the first three weeks of the archive format's existence, and never in any production release of pg_dump. Instead, just rely on the archive file layout to tell us whether we're printing COPY data or not. This bug represents a data corruption hazard in all releases in which standard_conforming_strings can be turned on, ie 8.2 and later, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Add missing newlines at end of error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-07-26
|
* Fix previous patch so it also works if not USE_SSL (mea culpa).Tom Lane2011-07-24
| | | | | | On balance, the need to cover this case changes my mind in favor of pushing all error-message generation duties into the two fe-secure.c routines. So do it that way.
* Improve libpq's error reporting for SSL failures.Tom Lane2011-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | In many cases, pqsecure_read/pqsecure_write set up useful error messages, which were then overwritten with useless ones by their callers. Fix this by defining the responsibility to set an error message to be entirely that of the lower-level function when using SSL. Back-patch to 8.3; the code is too different in 8.2 to be worth the trouble.
* Use OpenSSL's SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER flag.Tom Lane2011-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This disables an entirely unnecessary "sanity check" that causes failures in nonblocking mode, because OpenSSL complains if we move or compact the write buffer. The only actual requirement is that we not modify pending data once we've attempted to send it, which we don't. Per testing and research by Martin Pihlak, though this fix is a lot simpler than his patch. I put the same change into the backend, although it's less clear whether it's necessary there. We do use nonblock mode in some situations in streaming replication, so seems best to keep the same behavior in the backend as in libpq. Back-patch to all supported releases.
* Unbreak Windows builds broken by EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG change.Andrew Dunstan2011-07-23
|
* Change EDITOR_LINENUMBER_SWITCH to an environment variablePeter Eisentraut2011-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | Also change "switch" to "arg" because "switch" is a bit of a sloppy term. So the environment variable is called PSQL_EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG. Set "+" as hardcoded default value on Unix (since "vi" is the hardcoded default editor), so many users won't have to configure this at all. Move the documentation around a bit to centralize the editor configuration under environment variables, rather than repeating bits of it under every backslash command that invokes an editor.
* Rethink behavior of CREATE OR REPLACE during CREATE EXTENSION.Tom Lane2011-07-23
| | | | | | | | | The original implementation simply did nothing when replacing an existing object during CREATE EXTENSION. The folly of this was exposed by a report from Marc Munro: if the existing object belongs to another extension, we are left in an inconsistent state. We should insist that the object does not belong to another extension, and then add it to the current extension if not already a member.
* Unbreak unlogged tables.Robert Haas2011-07-22
| | | | | | I broke this in commit 5da79169d3e9f0fab47da03318c44075b3f824c5, which was obviously insufficiently well tested. Add some regression tests in the hope of making future slip-ups more likely to be noticed.
* Fix PQsetvalue() to avoid possible crash when adding a new tuple.Tom Lane2011-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PQsetvalue unnecessarily duplicated the logic in pqAddTuple, and didn't duplicate it exactly either --- pqAddTuple does not care what is in the tuple-pointer array positions beyond the last valid entry, whereas the code in PQsetvalue assumed such positions would contain NULL. This led to possible crashes if PQsetvalue was applied to a PGresult that had previously been enlarged with pqAddTuple, for instance one built from a server query. Fix by relying on pqAddTuple instead of duplicating logic, and not assuming anything about the contents of res->tuples[res->ntups]. Back-patch to 8.4, where PQsetvalue was introduced. Andrew Chernow
