* Teach psql to display the comments on conversions and domains.Robert Haas2011-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | \dc and \dD now accept a "+" option, which will cause the comments to be displayed. Along the way, correct a few oversights in the previous commit in this area, 3b17efdfdd846c9bfad1637686e6f18198ea3df5 - namely, (1) when \dL+ is used, make description still be the last column, for consistency with what we've done elsewhere; and (2) document the difference between \dC and \dC+. Josh Kupershmidt, with a couple of doc changes by me.
* Correct the lie in pg_config.h.win32 about having inttypes.h.Andrew Dunstan2011-08-08
| | | | | | This lie has been harmless until now, but has been exposed by the change to include postgres.h before the python headers, which in some versions include inttypes.h if HAVE_INTTYPES_H is set.
* 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
* Allow per-column foreign data wrapper options.Robert Haas2011-08-05
| | | | Shigeru Hanada, with fairly minor editing by me.
* Tweak PQresStatus() to avoid a clang compiler warning.Robert Haas2011-08-05
| | | | | | | | The previous test for status < 0 test is in fact testing nothing if the compiler considers an enum to be an unsigned data type. clang doesn't like tautologies, so do this instead. Report by Peter Geoghegan, fix as suggested by Tom Lane.
* Restore the primacy of postgres.h in plpython.c.Andrew Dunstan2011-08-04
| | | | | | | | To avoid having the python headers hijack various definitions, we now include them after all the system headers we want, having first undefined some of the things they want to define. After that's done we restore the things they scribbled on that matter, namely our snprintf and vsnprintf macros, if we're using them.
* Create VXID locks "lazily" in the main lock table.Robert Haas2011-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of entering them on transaction startup, we materialize them only when someone wants to wait, which will occur only during CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY. In Hot Standby mode, the startup process must also be able to probe for conflicting VXID locks, but the lock need never be fully materialized, because the startup process does not use the normal lock wait mechanism. Since most VXID locks never need to touch the lock manager partition locks, this can significantly reduce blocking contention on read-heavy workloads. Patch by me. Review by Jeff Davis.
* Teach psql to display comments on languages and casts.Robert Haas2011-08-04
| | | | | | | | The output of \dL (list languages) is fairly narrow, so we just always display the comment. \dC (list casts) can get fairly wide, so we only display comments if the new \dC+ option is specified. Josh Kupershmidt
* Make pgbench use erand48() rather than random().Robert Haas2011-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | glibc renders random() thread-safe by wrapping a futex lock around it; testing reveals that this limits the performance of pgbench on machines with many CPU cores. Rather than switching to random_r(), which is only available on GNU systems and crashes unless you use undocumented alchemy to initialize the random state properly, switch to our built-in implementation of erand48(), which is both thread-safe and concurrent. Since the list of reasons not to use the operating system's erand48() is getting rather long, rename ours to pg_erand48() (and similarly for our implementations of lrand48() and srand48()) and just always use those. We were already doing this on Cygwin anyway, and the glibc implementation is not quite thread-safe, so pgbench wouldn't be able to use that either. Per discussion with Tom Lane.
* 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.
* Minor stylistic corrections.Robert Haas2011-08-01

* 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.
* Reduce sinval synchronization overhead.Robert Haas2011-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | Testing shows that the overhead of acquiring and releasing SInvalReadLock and msgNumLock on high-core count boxes can waste a lot of CPU time and hurt performance. This patch adds a per-backend flag that allows us to skip all that locking in most cases. Further testing shows that this improves performance even when sinval traffic is very high. Patch by me. Review and testing by Noah Misch.
* 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.

* Check to see whether libxml2 handles error context the way we expect.Tom Lane2011-07-26
| | | | | | | It turns out to be possible to link against a libxml2.so that does this differently than the version we configured and built against, so we need a runtime check to avoid bizarre behavior. Per report from Bernd Helmle. Patch by Florian Pflug.
* Add missing newlines at end of error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-07-26
|
* Replace printf format %i by %dPeter Eisentraut2011-07-26
| | | | | They are identical, but the overwhelming majority of the code uses %d, so standardize on that.
* Only display column comments for relkinds that support them.Robert Haas2011-07-26
| | | | Josh Kupershmidt, with minor modifications by me.
* Silence compiler warning about uninitialized variable.Andrew Dunstan2011-07-25
| | | | | It is set correctly on the only path that uses it, but the compiler can't know that.
* Add some environment checks prior to sepgsql regression testing.Robert Haas2011-07-25
| | | | | | This probably needs more work, but it's a start. KaiGai Kohei
* 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
* Make xpath() do something useful with XPath expressions that return scalars.Tom Lane2011-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, xpath() simply returned an empty array if the expression did not yield a node set. This is useless for expressions that return scalars, such as one with name() at the top level. Arrange to return the scalar value as a single-element xml array, instead. (String values will be suitably escaped.) This change will also cause xpath_exists() to return true, not false, for such expressions. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura
* Ensure that xpath() escapes special characters in string values.Tom Lane2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | Without this it's possible for the output to not be legal XML, as illustrated by the added regression test cases. NB: this change will need to be called out as an incompatibility in the 9.2 release notes, since it's possible somebody was relying on the old behavior, even though it's clearly wrong. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura
* Support SECURITY LABEL on databases, tablespaces, and roles.Robert Haas2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | This requires a new shared catalog, pg_shseclabel. Along the way, fix the security_label regression tests so that they don't monkey with the labels of any pre-existing objects. This is unlikely to matter in practice, since only the label for the "dummy" provider was being manipulated. But this way still seems cleaner. KaiGai Kohei, with fairly extensive hacking by me.
* Rewrite libxml error handling to be more robust.Tom Lane2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libxml reports some errors (like invalid xmlns attributes) via the error handler hook, but still returns a success indicator to the library caller. This causes us to miss some errors that are important to report. Since the "generic" error handler hook doesn't know whether the message it's getting is for an error, warning, or notice, stop using that and instead start using the "structured" error handler hook, which gets enough information to be useful. While at it, arrange to save and restore the error handler hook setting in each libxml-using function, rather than assuming we can set and forget the hook. This should improve the odds of working nicely with third-party libraries that also use libxml. In passing, volatile-ize some local variables that get modified within PG_TRY blocks. I noticed this while testing with an older gcc version than I'd previously tried to compile xml.c with. Florian Pflug and Tom Lane, with extensive review/testing by Noah Misch
* Make isolationtester more robust on locked commandsAlvaro Herrera2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Noah Misch diagnosed the buildfarm problems in the isolation tests partly as failure to differentiate backends properly; the old code was using backend IDs, which is not good enough because a new backend might use an already used ID. Use PIDs instead. Also, the code was purposely careless about other concurrent activity, because it isn't expected; and in fact, it doesn't affect the vast majority of the time. However, it can be observed that autovacuum can block tables for long enough to cause sporadic failures. The new code accounts for that by ignoring locks held by processes not explicitly declared in our spec file. Author: Noah Misch
* Increase deadlock_timeout to 100ms in FK isolation testsAlvaro Herrera2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | The previous value of 20ms is dangerously close to the time actually spent just waiting for the deadlock to happen, so on occasion it causes the test to fail simply because the other session didn't get to run early enough, not managing to cause the deadlock that needs to be detected. With this new value, it's expected that most machines on normal load will be able to pass the test. Author: Noah Misch
* Add expected regress output on stricter isolation levelsAlvaro Herrera2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | These new files allow the new FK tests on isolationtester to pass on the serializable and repeatable read isolation levels (which are untested by the buildfarm). Author: Kevin Grittner Reviewed by Noah Misch
* Remove O(N^2) performance issue with multiple SAVEPOINTs.Simon Riggs2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | Subtransaction locks now released en masse at main commit, rather than repeatedly re-scanning for locks as we ascend the nested transaction tree. Split transaction state TBLOCK_SUBEND into two states, TBLOCK_SUBCOMMIT and TBLOCK_SUBRELEASE to allow the commit path to be optimised using the existing code in ResourceOwnerRelease() which appears to have been intended for this usage, judging from comments therein.
* Some refinement for the "fast path" lock patch.Robert Haas2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. In GetLockStatusData, avoid initializing instance before we've ensured that the array is large enough. Otherwise, if repalloc moves the block around, we're hosed. 2. Add the word "Relation" to the name of some identifiers, to avoid assuming that the fast-path mechanism will only ever apply to relations (though these particular parts certainly will). Some of the macros could possibly use similar treatment, but the names are getting awfully long already. 3. Add a missing word to comment in AtPrepare_Locks().
