* Move materialized views' is-populated status into their pg_class entries.Tom Lane2013-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previously this state was represented by whether the view's disk file had zero or nonzero size, which is problematic for numerous reasons, since it's breaking a fundamental assumption about heap storage. This was done to allow unlogged matviews to revert to unpopulated status after a crash despite our lack of any ability to update catalog entries post-crash. However, this poses enough risk of future problems that it seems better to not support unlogged matviews until we can find another way. Accordingly, revert that choice as well as a number of existing kluges forced by it in favor of creating a pg_class.relispopulated flag column.
* Back out some recent translation updates.Tom Lane2013-05-06
| | | | | | | | Very old versions of msgfmt choke on these specific messages, for reasons that are unclear at the moment. Remove them so that we can ship a beta release and not get complaints from testers (these messages will just go untranslated, instead, and we're hardly at 100% coverage anyway). Peter Eisentraut will look for a better fix later.
* Disallow unlogged materialized views.Tom Lane2013-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial implementation of this feature was really unsupportable, because it's relying on the physical size of an on-disk file to carry the relation's populated/unpopulated state, which is at least a modularity violation and could have serious long-term consequences. We could say that an unlogged matview goes to empty on crash, but not everybody likes that definition, so let's just remove the feature for 9.3. We can add it back when we have a less klugy implementation. I left the grammar and tab-completion support for CREATE UNLOGGED MATERIALIZED VIEW in place, since it's harmless and allows delivering a more specific error message about the unsupported feature. I'm committing this separately to ease identification of what should be reverted when/if we are able to re-enable the feature.

* Improve behavior of \watch with non-tuple-returning commands.Tom Lane2013-05-04
| | | | | | | | Print the command tag if we get PGRES_COMMAND_OK, and throw an error for other cases. Per gripe from Michael Paquier. In passing, add an fflush(), just to be real sure the output appears before we sleep.

* Fix permission tests for views/tables proven empty by constraint exclusion.Tom Lane2013-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A view defined as "select <something> where false" had the curious property that the system wouldn't check whether users had the privileges necessary to select from it. More generally, permissions checks could be skipped for tables referenced in sub-selects or views that were proven empty by constraint exclusion (although some quick testing suggests this seldom happens in cases of practical interest). This happened because the planner failed to include rangetable entries for such tables in the finished plan. This was noticed in connection with erroneous handling of materialized views, but actually the issue is quite unrelated to matviews. Therefore, revert commit 200ba1667b3a8d7a9d559d2f05f83d209c9d8267 in favor of a more direct test for the real problem. Back-patch to 9.2 where the bug was introduced (by commit 7741dd6590073719688891898e85f0cb73453159).

* Revert "pg_ctl: Add idempotent option"Peter Eisentraut2013-04-29
| | | | | | This reverts commit 87306184580c9c49717b00d48a2f9e717f21e0a8. The behavior in certain cases is still being debated, and it's too late to solve this before beta.
* Postpone creation of pathkeys lists to fix bug #8049.Tom Lane2013-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch gets rid of the concept of, and infrastructure for, non-canonical PathKeys; we now only ever create canonical pathkey lists. The need for non-canonical pathkeys came from the desire to have grouping_planner initialize query_pathkeys and related pathkey lists before calling query_planner. However, since query_planner didn't actually *do* anything with those lists before they'd been made canonical, we can get rid of the whole mess by just not creating the lists at all until the point where we formerly canonicalized them. There are several ways in which we could implement that without making query_planner itself deal with grouping/sorting features (which are supposed to be the province of grouping_planner). I chose to add a callback function to query_planner's API; other alternatives would have required adding more fields to PlannerInfo, which while not bad in itself would create an ABI break for planner-related plugins in the 9.2 release series. This still breaks ABI for anything that calls query_planner directly, but it seems somewhat unlikely that there are any such plugins. I had originally conceived of this change as merely a step on the way to fixing bug #8049 from Teun Hoogendoorn; but it turns out that this fixes that bug all by itself, as per the added regression test. The reason is that now get_eclass_for_sort_expr is adding the ORDER BY expression at the end of EquivalenceClass creation not the start, and so anything that is in a multi-member EquivalenceClass has already been created with correct em_nullable_relids. I am suspicious that there are related scenarios in which we still need to teach get_eclass_for_sort_expr to compute correct nullable_relids, but am not eager to risk destabilizing either 9.2 or 9.3 to fix bugs that are only hypothetical. So for the moment, do this and stop here. Back-patch to 9.2 but not to earlier branches, since they don't exhibit this bug for lack of join-clause-movement logic that depends on em_nullable_relids being correct. (We might have to revisit that choice if any related bugs turn up.) In 9.2, don't change the signature of make_pathkeys_for_sortclauses nor remove canonicalize_pathkeys, so as not to risk more plugin breakage than we have to.
* Ensure ANALYZE phase is not skipped because of canceled truncate.Kevin Grittner2013-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch b19e4250b45e91c9cbdd18d35ea6391ab5961c8d attempted to preserve existing behavior regarding statistics generation in the case that a truncation attempt was canceled due to lock conflicts. It failed to do this accurately in two regards: (1) autovacuum had previously generated statistics if the truncate attempt failed to initially get the lock rather than having started the attempt, and (2) the VACUUM ANALYZE command had always generated statistics. Both of these changes were unintended, and are reverted by this patch. On review, there seems to be consensus that the previous failure to generate statistics when the truncate was terminated was more an unfortunate consequence of how that effort was previously terminated than a feature we want to keep; so this patch generates statistics even when an autovacuum truncation attempt terminates early. Another unintended change which is kept on the basis that it is an improvement is that when a VACUUM command is truncating, it will the new heuristic for avoiding blocking other processes, rather than keeping an AccessExclusiveLock on the table for however long the truncation takes. Per multiple reports, with some renaming per patch by Jeff Janes. Backpatch to 9.0, where problem was created.
* Attempt to fix error recovery in COPY BOTH mode.Robert Haas2013-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, libpq and the backend had opposite ideas about whether it was necessary for the client to send a CopyDone message after receiving an ErrorResponse, making it impossible to cleanly exit COPY BOTH mode. Fix libpq so that works correctly, adopting the backend's notion that an ErrorResponse kills the copy in both directions. Adjust receivelog.c to avoid a degradation in the quality of the resulting error messages. libpqwalreceiver.c is already doing the right thing, so no adjustment needed there. Add an explicit statement to the documentation explaining how this part of the protocol is supposed to work, in the hopes of avoiding future confusion in this area. Since the consequences of all this confusion are very limited, especially in the back-branches where no client ever attempts to exit COPY BOTH mode without closing the connection entirely, no back-patch.
* Introduce new page checksum algorithm and module.Simon Riggs2013-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Isolate checksum calculation to its own module, so that bufpage knows little if anything about the details of the calculation. This implementation is a modified FNV-1a hash checksum, details of which are given in the new checksum.c header comments. Basic implementation only, so we fix the output value. Later related commits will add version numbers to pg_control, compiler optimization flags and memory barriers. Ants Aasma, reviewed by Jeff Davis and Simon Riggs
* Editorialize a bit on new ProcessUtility() API.Tom Lane2013-04-28
| | | | | | | | Choose a saner ordering of parameters (adding a new input param after the output params seemed a bit random), update the function's header comment to match reality (cmon folks, is this really that hard?), get rid of useless and sloppily-defined distinction between PROCESS_UTILITY_SUBCOMMAND and PROCESS_UTILITY_GENERATED.
* Fix unsafe event-trigger coding in ProcessUtility().Tom Lane2013-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We mustn't run any of the event-trigger support code when handling utility statements like START TRANSACTION or ABORT, because that code may need to refresh event-trigger cache data, which requires being inside a valid transaction. (This mistake explains the consistent build failures exhibited by the CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS buildfarm members, as well as some irreproducible failures on other members.) The least messy fix seems to be to break standard_ProcessUtility into two functions, one that handles all the statements not supported by event triggers, and one that contains the event-trigger support code and handles the statements that are supported by event triggers. This change also fixes several inconsistencies, such as four cases where support had been installed for "ddl_event_start" but not "ddl_event_end" triggers, plus the fact that InvokeDDLCommandEventTriggersIfSupported() paid no mind to isCompleteQuery.

* Incidental cleanup of matviews code.Tom Lane2013-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move checking for unscannable matviews into ExecOpenScanRelation, which is a better place for it first because the open relation is already available (saving a relcache lookup cycle), and second because this eliminates the problem of telling the difference between rangetable entries that will or will not be scanned by the query. In particular we can get rid of the not-terribly-well-thought-out-or-implemented isResultRel field that the initial matviews patch added to RangeTblEntry. Also get rid of entirely unnecessary scannability check in the rewriter, and a bogus decision about whether RefreshMatViewStmt requires a parse-time snapshot. catversion bump due to removal of a RangeTblEntry field, which changes stored rules.
* Improve message about failed transaction log archivingPeter Eisentraut2013-04-26
| | | | | The old phrasing appeared to imply that the failure was terminal. Improve that by indicating that archiving will be tried again later.
* Fix collation assignment for aggregates with ORDER BY.Tom Lane2013-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ORDER BY expressions were being treated the same as regular aggregate arguments for purposes of collation determination, but really they should not affect the aggregate's collation at all; only collations of the aggregate's regular arguments should affect it. In many cases this mistake would lead to incorrectly throwing a "collation conflict" error; but in some cases the corrected code will silently assign a different collation to the aggregate than before, for example agg(foo ORDER BY bar COLLATE "x") which will now use foo's collation rather than "x" for the aggregate. Given this risk and the lack of field complaints about the issue, it doesn't seem prudent to back-patch. In passing, rearrange code in assign_collations_walker so that we don't need multiple copies of the standard logic for computing collation of a node with children. (Previously, CaseExpr duplicated the standard logic, and we would have needed a third copy for Aggref without this change.) Andrew Gierth and David Fetter

| | | | | | explicitly requested, either with a -t/--table switch of the table itself, or by -n/--schema switch of the schema containing the extension table. Patch reviewed by Vibhor Kumar and Dimitri Fontaine. Backpatched to 9.1 when the extension management facility was added.
* libpq: Fix a few bits that didn't get the memo about COPY BOTH.Robert Haas2013-04-26
| | | | | | | | There's probably no real bug here at present, so not backpatching. But it seems good to make these bits consistent with the rest of libpq, so as to avoid future surprises. Patch by me. Review by Tom Lane.
* Avoid deadlock between concurrent CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY commands.Tom Lane2013-04-25
| | | | | | | | | There was a high probability of two or more concurrent C.I.C. commands deadlocking just before completion, because each would wait for the others to release their reference snapshots. Fix by releasing the snapshot before waiting for other snapshots to go away. Per report from Paul Hinze. Back-patch to all active branches.

* Add missing #include.Heikki Linnakangas2013-04-24
| | | | | | | | | On non-Windows systems, sys/time.h was pulled in by portability/instr_time.h, which pulled in time.h. We certainly should include time.h directly, since we're using time(2), but the indirect include masked the problem on most platforms. Andres Freund
* Fix assertion failure for REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW in PL.Kevin Grittner2013-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | This was due to incomplete implementation of rowcount reporting for RMV, which was due to initial waffling on whether it should be provided. It seems unlikely to be a useful or universally available number as more sophisticated techniques for maintaining matviews are added, so remove the partial support rather than completing it. Per report of Jeevan Chalke, but with a different fix
* Make fast promotion the default promotion mode.Simon Riggs2013-04-24
| | | | | Continue to allow a request for synchronous checkpoints as a mechanism in case of problems.
* Fix longstanding race condition in plancache.c.Tom Lane2013-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating or manipulating a cached plan for a transaction control command (particularly ROLLBACK), we must not perform any catalog accesses, since we might be in an aborted transaction. However, plancache.c busily saved or examined the search_path for every cached plan. If we were unlucky enough to do this at a moment where the path's expansion into schema OIDs wasn't already cached, we'd do some catalog accesses; and with some more bad luck such as an ill-timed signal arrival, that could lead to crashes or Assert failures, as exhibited in bug #8095 from Nachiket Vaidya. Fortunately, there's no real need to consider the search path for such commands, so we can just skip the relevant steps when the subject statement is a TransactionStmt. This is somewhat related to bug #5269, though the failure happens during initial cached-plan creation rather than revalidation. This bug has been there since the plan cache was invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.
* Clean up references to SQL92Peter Eisentraut2013-04-20
| | | | | | In most cases, these were just references to the SQL standard in general. In a few cases, a contrast was made between SQL92 and later standards -- those have been kept unchanged.
* Improve error message when an FDW doesn't support WHERE CURRENT OF.Tom Lane2013-04-19
| | | | | | | If an FDW fails to take special measures with a CurrentOfExpr, we will end up trying to execute it as an ordinary qual, which was being treated as a purely internal failure condition. Provide a more user-oriented error message for such cases.

* Remove some unused and seldom used fields from RelationAmInfo.Heikki Linnakangas2013-04-16
| | | | | | | This saves some memory from each index relcache entry. At least on a 64-bit machine, it saves just enough to shrink a typical relcache entry's memory usage from 2k to 1k. That's nice if you have a lot of backends and a lot of indexes.
* Fix function return type confusionPeter Eisentraut2013-04-15
| | | | | When parse_hba_line's return type was changed from bool to a pointer, the MANDATORY_AUTH_ARG macro wasn't adjusted.

* pg_ctl: Add idempotent optionPeter Eisentraut2013-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the behavior of the start and stop actions to exit successfully if the server was already started or stopped. This changes the default behavior of the start action: Before, if the server was already running, it would print a message and succeed. Now, that situation will result in an error. When running in idempotent mode, no message is printed and pg_ctl exits successfully. It was considered to just make the idempotent behavior the default and only option, but pg_upgrade needs the old behavior.
* Fix sporadic rebuilds for .pc filesPeter Eisentraut2013-04-12
| | | | | | | | | The build of .pc (pkg-config) files depends on all makefiles in use, and in dependency tracking mode, the previous coding ended up including /dev/null as a makefile. Apparently, on some platforms the modification time of /dev/null changes sporadically, and so the .pc files would end up being rebuilt every so often. Fix that by changing the makefile code to do without using /dev/null.
* Clean up the mess around EXPLAIN and materialized views.Tom Lane2013-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert the matview-related changes in explain.c's API, as per recent complaint from Robert Haas. The reason for these appears to have been principally some ill-considered choices around having intorel_startup do what ought to be parse-time checking, plus a poor arrangement for passing it the view parsetree it needs to store into pg_rewrite when creating a materialized view. Do the latter by having parse analysis stick a copy into the IntoClause, instead of doing it at runtime. (On the whole, I seriously question the choice to represent CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW as a variant of SELECT INTO/CREATE TABLE AS, because that means injecting even more complexity into what was already a horrid legacy kluge. However, I didn't go so far as to rethink that choice ... yet.) I also moved several error checks into matview parse analysis, and made the check for external Params in a matview more accurate. In passing, clean things up a bit more around interpretOidsOption(), and fix things so that we can use that to force no-oids for views, sequences, etc, thereby eliminating the need to cons up "oids = false" options when creating them. catversion bump due to change in IntoClause. (I wonder though if we really need readfuncs/outfuncs support for IntoClause anymore.)
