* Add ANALYZE into regression testsStephen Frost2014-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Looks like we can end up with different plans happening on the buildfarm, which breaks the regression tests when we include EXPLAIN output (which is done in the regression tests for updatable security views, to ensure that the user-defined function isn't pushed down to a level where it could view the rows before the security quals are applied). This adds in ANALYZE to hopefully make the plans consistent. The ANALYZE ends up changing the original plan too, so the update looks bigger than it really is. The new plan looks perfectly valid, of course.
* Provide moving-aggregate support for boolean aggregates.Tom Lane2014-04-13

* Make security barrier views automatically updatableStephen Frost2014-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Views which are marked as security_barrier must have their quals applied before any user-defined quals are called, to prevent user-defined functions from being able to see rows which the security barrier view is intended to prevent them from seeing. Remove the restriction on security barrier views being automatically updatable by adding a new securityQuals list to the RTE structure which keeps track of the quals from security barrier views at each level, independently of the user-supplied quals. When RTEs are later discovered which have securityQuals populated, they are turned into subquery RTEs which are marked as security_barrier to prevent any user-supplied quals being pushed down (modulo LEAKPROOF quals).

* Provide moving-aggregate support for a bunch of numerical aggregates.Tom Lane2014-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | First installment of the promised moving-aggregate support in built-in aggregates: count(), sum(), avg(), stddev() and variance() for assorted datatypes, though not for float4/float8. In passing, remove a 2001-vintage kluge in interval_accum(): interval array elements have been properly aligned since around 2003, but nobody remembered to take out this workaround. Also, fix a thinko in the opr_sanity tests for moving-aggregate catalog entries. David Rowley and Florian Pflug, reviewed by Dean Rasheed
* Create infrastructure for moving-aggregate optimization.Tom Lane2014-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, when executing an aggregate function as a window function within a window with moving frame start (that is, any frame start mode except UNBOUNDED PRECEDING), we had to recalculate the aggregate from scratch each time the frame head moved. This patch allows an aggregate definition to include an alternate "moving aggregate" implementation that includes an inverse transition function for removing rows from the aggregate's running state. As long as this can be done successfully, runtime is proportional to the total number of input rows, rather than to the number of input rows times the average frame length. This commit includes the core infrastructure, documentation, and regression tests using user-defined aggregates. Follow-on commits will update some of the built-in aggregates to use this feature.

* Fix bugs in GIN "fast scan" with partial match.Heikki Linnakangas2014-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were a couple of bugs here. First, if the fuzzy limit was exceeded, the loop in entryGetItem might drop out too soon if a whole block needs to be skipped because it's < advancePast ("continue" in a while-loop checks the loop condition too). Secondly, the loop checked when stepping to a new page that there is at least one offset on the page < advancePast, but we cannot rely on that on subsequent calls of entryGetItem, because advancePast might change in between. That caused the skipping loop to read bogus items in the TbmIterateResult's offset array. First item and fix by Alexander Korotkov, second bug pointed out by Fabrízio de Royes Mello, by a small variation of Alexander's test query.

* Add an in-core GiST index opclass for inet/cidr types.Tom Lane2014-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This operator class can accelerate subnet/supernet tests as well as btree-equivalent ordered comparisons. It also handles a new network operator inet && inet (overlaps, a/k/a "is supernet or subnet of"), which is expected to be useful in exclusion constraints. Ideally this opclass would be the default for GiST with inet/cidr data, but we can't mark it that way until we figure out how to do a more or less graceful transition from the current situation, in which the really-completely-bogus inet/cidr opclasses in contrib/btree_gist are marked as default. Having the opclass in core and not default is better than not having it at all, though. While at it, add new documentation sections to allow us to officially document GiST/GIN/SP-GiST opclasses, something there was never a clear place to do before. I filled these in with some simple tables listing the existing opclasses and the operators they support, but there's certainly scope to put more information there.

* Get rid of the dynamic shared memory state file.Robert Haas2014-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of storing the ID of the dynamic shared memory control segment in a file within the data directory, store it in the main control segment. This avoids a number of nasty corner cases, most seriously that doing an online backup and then using it on the same machine (e.g. to fire up a standby) would result in the standby clobbering all of the master's dynamic shared memory segments. Per complaints from Heikki Linnakangas, Fujii Masao, and Tom Lane.
* Add new to_reg* functions for error-free OID lookups.Robert Haas2014-04-08

* Fix hot standby bug with GiST scans.Heikki Linnakangas2014-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | Don't reset the rightlink of a page when replaying a page update record. This was a leftover from pre-hot standby days, when it was not possible to have scans concurrent with WAL replay. Resetting the right-link was not necessary back then either, but it was done for the sake of tidiness. But with hot standby, it's wrong, because a concurrent scan might still need it. Backpatch all versions with hot standby, 9.0 and above.

* Assert that strong-lock count is >0 everywhere it's decremented.Robert Haas2014-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | The one existing assertion of this type has tripped a few times in the buildfarm lately, but it's not clear whether the problem is really originating there or whether it's leftovers from a trip through one of the other two paths that lack a matching assertion. So add one. Since the same bug(s) most likely exist(s) in the back-branches also, back-patch to 9.2, where the fast-path lock mechanism was added.
* Remove ipc_test.Robert Haas2014-04-07
| | | | | | This doesn't seem to be useful any more, and it's not really worth the effort to keep updating it every time relevant dependencies or calling signatures in the shared memory or semaphore code change.
* Fix WAL replay bug in the new GIN incomplete-split code.Heikki Linnakangas2014-04-07

* Block signals earlier during postmaster startup.Tom Lane2014-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Formerly, we set up the postmaster's signal handling only when we were about to start launching subprocesses. This is a bad idea though, as it means that for example a SIGINT arriving before that will kill the postmaster instantly, perhaps leaving lockfiles, socket files, shared memory, etc laying about. We'd rather that such a signal caused orderly postmaster termination including releasing of those resources. A simple fix is to move the PostmasterMain stanza that initializes signal handling to an earlier point, before we've created any such resources. Then, an early-arriving signal will be blocked until we're ready to deal with it in the usual way. (The only part that really needs to be moved up is blocking of signals, but it seems best to keep the signal handler installation calls together with that; for one thing this ensures the kernel won't drop any signals we wished to get. The handlers won't get invoked in any case until we unblock signals in ServerLoop.) Per a report from MauMau. He proposed changing the way "pg_ctl stop" works to deal with this, but that'd just be masking one symptom not fixing the core issue. It's been like this since forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.
* Fix another palloc in critical section.Heikki Linnakangas2014-04-05
| | | | | | | | Also add a regression test for a GIN index with enough items with the same key, so that a GIN posting tree gets created. Apparently none of the existing GIN tests were large enough for that. This code is new, no backpatching required.
* Fix processing of PGC_BACKEND GUC parameters on Windows.Tom Lane2014-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EXEC_BACKEND builds (i.e., Windows) failed to absorb values of PGC_BACKEND parameters if they'd been changed post-startup via the config file. This for example prevented log_connections from working if it were turned on post-startup. The mechanism for handling this case has always been a bit of a kluge, and it wasn't revisited when we implemented EXEC_BACKEND. While in a normal forking environment new backends will inherit the postmaster's value of such settings, EXEC_BACKEND backends have to read the settings from the CONFIG_EXEC_PARAMS file, and they were mistakenly rejecting them. So this case has always been broken in the Windows port; so back-patch to all supported branches. Amit Kapila
* ecpg/ecpglib must build the src/port files it uses with -DFRONTEND.Tom Lane2014-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | Remarkably, this hasn't been noticed before, though it surely should have been happening since around the fall of the Byzantine empire. Commit 438b529604 changed path.c to depend on FRONTEND, and that exposed the omission, per buildfarm reports. I'm suspicious that some other subdirectories are missing this too, but this one change is enough to make ecpg tests pass for me.
* Fix tablespace creation WAL replay to work on Windows.Tom Lane2014-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | The code segment that removes the old symlink (if present) wasn't clued into the fact that on Windows, symlinks are junction points which have to be removed with rmdir(). Backpatch to 9.0, where the failing code was introduced. MauMau, reviewed by Muhammad Asif Naeem and Amit Kapila
* Allow "-C variable" and "--describe-config" even to root users.Tom Lane2014-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's no really compelling reason to refuse to do these read-only, non-server-starting options as root, and there's at least one good reason to allow -C: pg_ctl uses -C to find out the true data directory location when pointed at a config-only directory. On Windows, this is done before dropping administrator privileges, which means that pg_ctl fails for administrators if and only if a config-only layout is used. Since the root-privilege check is done so early in startup, it's a bit awkward to check for these switches. Make the somewhat arbitrary decision that we'll only skip the root check if -C is the first switch. This is not just to make the code a bit simpler: it also guarantees that we can't misinterpret a --boot mode switch. (While AuxiliaryProcessMain doesn't currently recognize any such switch, it might have one in the future.) This is no particular problem for pg_ctl, and since the whole behavior is undocumented anyhow, it's not a documentation issue either. (--describe-config only works as the first switch anyway, so this is no restriction for that case either.) Back-patch to 9.2 where pg_ctl first began to use -C. MauMau, heavily edited by me
* Preserve errno across free().Tom Lane2014-04-04
| | | | | Dept. of second thoughts: free() isn't guaranteed not to change errno. Make sure we report the right error if getcwd() fails.
* Make sure -D is an absolute path when starting server on Windows.Tom Lane2014-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is needed because Windows services may get started with a different current directory than where pg_ctl is executed. We want relative -D paths to be interpreted relative to pg_ctl's CWD, similarly to what happens on other platforms. In support of this, move the backend's make_absolute_path() function into src/port/path.c (where it probably should have been long since) and get rid of the rather inferior version in pg_regress.

* Fix bogus time printout in walreceiver's debug log messages.Tom Lane2014-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The displayed sendtime and receipttime were always exactly equal, because somebody forgot that timestamptz_to_str returns a static buffer (thereby simplifying life for most callers, at the cost of complicating it for those who need two results concurrently). Apply the same pstrdup solution used by the other call sites with this issue. Back-patch to 9.2 where the faulty code was introduced. Per bug #9849 from Haruka Takatsuka, though this is not exactly his patch. Possibly we should change timestamptz_to_str's API, but I wouldn't want to do so in the back branches.

* Fix non-equivalence of VARIADIC and non-VARIADIC function call formats.Tom Lane2014-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For variadic functions (other than VARIADIC ANY), the syntaxes foo(x,y,...) and foo(VARIADIC ARRAY[x,y,...]) should be considered equivalent, since the former is converted to the latter at parse time. They have indeed been equivalent, in all releases before 9.3. However, commit 75b39e790 made an ill-considered decision to record which syntax had been used in FuncExpr nodes, and then to make equal() test that in checking node equality --- which caused the syntaxes to not be seen as equivalent by the planner. This is the underlying cause of bug #9817 from Dmitry Ryabov. It might seem that a quick fix would be to make equal() disregard FuncExpr.funcvariadic, but the same commit made that untenable, because the field actually *is* semantically significant for some VARIADIC ANY functions. This patch instead adopts the approach of redefining funcvariadic (and aggvariadic, in HEAD) as meaning that the last argument is a variadic array, whether it got that way by parser intervention or was supplied explicitly by the user. Therefore the value will always be true for non-ANY variadic functions, restoring the principle of equivalence. (However, the planner will continue to consider use of VARIADIC as a meaningful difference for VARIADIC ANY functions, even though some such functions might disregard it.) In HEAD, this change lets us simplify the decompilation logic in ruleutils.c, since the funcvariadic/aggvariadic flag tells directly whether to print VARIADIC. However, in 9.3 we have to continue to cope with existing stored rules/views that might contain the previous definition. Fortunately, this just means no change in ruleutils.c, since its existing behavior effectively ignores funcvariadic for all cases other than VARIADIC ANY functions. In HEAD, bump catversion to reflect the fact that FuncExpr.funcvariadic changed meanings; this is sort of pro forma, since I don't believe any built-in views are affected. Unfortunately, this patch doesn't magically fix everything for affected 9.3 users. After installing 9.3.5, they might need to recreate their rules/views/indexes containing variadic function calls in order to get everything consistent with the new definition. As in the cited bug, the symptom of a problem would be failure to use a nominally matching index that has a variadic function call in its definition. We'll need to mention this in the 9.3.5 release notes.

* Avoid palloc in critical section in GiST WAL-logging.Heikki Linnakangas2014-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Memory allocation can fail if you run out of memory, and inside a critical section that will lead to a PANIC. Use conservatively-sized arrays in stack instead. There was previously no explicit limit on the number of pages a GiST split can produce, it was only limited by the number of LWLocks that can be held simultaneously (100 at the moment). This patch adds an explicit limit of 75 pages. That should be plenty, a typical split shouldn't produce more than 2-3 page halves. The bug has been there forever, but only backpatch down to 9.1. The code was changed significantly in 9.1, and it doesn't seem worth the risk or trouble to adapt this for 9.0 and 8.4.
* Fix assorted issues in client host name lookup.Tom Lane2014-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code for matching clients to pg_hba.conf lines that specify host names (instead of IP address ranges) failed to complain if reverse DNS lookup failed; instead it silently didn't match, so that you might end up getting a surprising "no pg_hba.conf entry for ..." error, as seen in bug #9518 from Mike Blackwell. Since we don't want to make this a fatal error in situations where pg_hba.conf contains a mixture of host names and IP addresses (clients matching one of the numeric entries should not have to have rDNS data), remember the lookup failure and mention it as DETAIL if we get to "no pg_hba.conf entry". Apply the same approach to forward-DNS lookup failures, too, rather than treating them as immediate hard errors. Along the way, fix a couple of bugs that prevented us from detecting an rDNS lookup error reliably, and make sure that we make only one rDNS lookup attempt; formerly, if the lookup attempt failed, the code would try again for each host name entry in pg_hba.conf. Since more or less the whole point of this design is to ensure there's only one lookup attempt not one per entry, the latter point represents a performance bug that seems sufficient justification for back-patching. Also, adjust src/port/getaddrinfo.c so that it plays as well as it can with this code. Which is not all that well, since it does not have actual support for rDNS lookup, but at least it should return the expected (and required by spec) error codes so that the main code correctly perceives the lack of functionality as a lookup failure. It's unlikely that PG is still being used in production on any machines that require our getaddrinfo.c, so I'm not excited about working harder than this. To keep the code in the various branches similar, this includes back-patching commits c424d0d1052cb4053c8712ac44123f9b9a9aa3f2 and 1997f34db4687e671690ed054c8f30bb501b1168 into 9.2 and earlier. Back-patch to 9.1 where the facility for hostnames in pg_hba.conf was introduced.

* Fix bug in the new GIN incomplete-split code.Heikki Linnakangas2014-04-01
