* Revert accidental change to pg_config_manual.h.Robert Haas2011-10-09
| | | | | | | | | This was broken in commit 53dbc27c62d8e1b6c5253feba04a5094cb8fe046, which introduced unlogged tables. Fortunately, as debugging tools go, this one is pretty cheap, which is probably why it took nine months for someone to notice, but it's not intended to be enabled by default, so revert. Noted by Fujii Masao.
* Don't let transform_null_equals=on affect CASE foo WHEN NULL ... constructs.Heikki Linnakangas2011-10-08
| | | | | | | | | transform_null_equals is only supposed to affect "foo = NULL" expressions given directly by the user, not the internal "foo = NULL" expression generated from CASE-WHEN. This fixes bug #6242, reported by Sergey. Backpatch to all supported branches.
* Ensure walsenders can be SIGTERMed while in non-walsender codeMagnus Hagander2011-10-06
| | | | | | | In oder to exit on SIGTERM when in non-walsender code, such as do_pg_stop_backup(), we need to set the interrupt variables that are used there, and not just the walsender local ones.
* Improve and simplify CREATE EXTENSION's management of GUC variables.Tom Lane2011-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CREATE EXTENSION needs to transiently set search_path, as well as client_min_messages and log_min_messages. We were doing this by the expedient of saving the current string value of each variable, doing a SET LOCAL, and then doing another SET LOCAL with the previous value at the end of the command. This is a bit expensive though, and it also fails badly if there is anything funny about the existing search_path value, as seen in a recent report from Roger Niederland. Fortunately, there's a much better way, which is to piggyback on the GUC infrastructure previously developed for functions with SET options. We just open a new GUC nesting level, do our assignments with GUC_ACTION_SAVE, and then close the nesting level when done. This automatically restores the prior settings without a re-parsing pass, so (in principle anyway) there can't be an error. And guc.c still takes care of cleanup in event of an error abort. The CREATE EXTENSION code for this was modeled on some much older code in ri_triggers.c, which I also changed to use the better method, even though there wasn't really much risk of failure there. Also improve the comments in guc.c to reflect this additional usage.
* Add sourcefile/sourceline data to EXEC_BACKEND GUC transmission files.Tom Lane2011-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | This oversight meant that on Windows, the pg_settings view would not display source file or line number information for values coming from postgresql.conf, unless the backend had received a SIGHUP since starting. In passing, also make the error detection in read_nondefault_variables a tad more thorough, and fix it to not lose precision on float GUCs (these changes are already in HEAD as of my previous commit).
* ProcedureCreate neglected to record dependencies on default expressions.Tom Lane2011-10-03
| | | | | | | Thus, an object referenced in a default expression could be dropped while the function remained present. This was unaccountably missed in the original patch to add default parameters for functions. Reported by Pavel Stehule.
* Fix pg_upgrade for EXEC_BACKEND builds (e.g. Windows) by properlyBruce Momjian2011-09-29
| | | | | | passing the -b/binary-upgrade flag. Backpatch to 9.1.X.
* Fix index matching for operators with mixed collatable/noncollatable inputs.Tom Lane2011-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an indexable operator for a non-collatable indexed datatype has a collatable right-hand input type, any OpExpr for it will be marked with a nonzero inputcollid (since having one collatable input is sufficient to make that happen). However, an index on a non-collatable column certainly doesn't have any collation. This caused us to fail to match such operators to their indexes, because indxpath.c required an exact match of index collation and clause collation. It seems correct to allow a match when the index is collation-less regardless of the clause's inputcollid: an operator with both noncollatable and collatable inputs could perhaps depend on the collation of the collatable input, but it could hardly expect the index for the noncollatable input to have that same collation. Per bug #6232 from Pierre Ducroquet. His example is specifically about "hstore ? text" but the problem seems quite generic.
* Fix window functions that sort by expressions involving aggregates.Tom Lane2011-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit c1d9579dd8bf3c921ca6bc2b62c40da6d25372e5, I changed things so that the output of the Agg node that feeds the window functions would not list any ungrouped Vars directly. Formerly, for example, the Agg tlist might have included both "x" and "sum(x)", which is not really valid if "x" isn't a grouping column. If we then had a window function ordering on something like "sum(x) + 1", prepare_sort_from_pathkeys would find no exact match for this in the Agg tlist, and would conclude that it must recompute the expression. But it would break the expression down to just the Var "x", which it would find in the tlist, and then rebuild the ORDER BY expression using a reference to the subplan's "x" output. Now, after the above-referenced changes, "x" isn't in the Agg tlist if it's not a grouping column, so that prepare_sort_from_pathkeys fails with "could not find pathkey item to sort", as reported by Bricklen Anderson. The fix is to not break down Aggrefs into their component parts, but just treat them as irreducible expressions to be sought in the subplan tlist. This is definitely OK for the use with respect to window functions in grouping_planner, since it just built the tlist being used on the same basis. AFAICT it is safe for other uses too; most of the other call sites couldn't encounter Aggrefs anyway.
* Un-break compression of plain-text output format in pg_dump.Tom Lane2011-09-25
| | | | | | | | | pg_dump has historically understood -Z with no -F switch to mean that it should emit a gzip-compressed version of its plain text output. This got broken through a misunderstanding in the 9.1 patch that added directory output format. Restore the former behavior. Per complaint from Roger Niederland and diagnosis by Adrian Klaver.
* Fix our mapping of Windows timezones for Central America.Tom Lane2011-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were mapping "Central America Standard Time" to "CST6CDT", which seems entirely wrong, because according to the Olson timezone database noplace in Central America observes daylight savings time on any regular basis --- and certainly not according to the USA DST rules that are implied by "CST6CDT". (Mexico is an exception, but they can be disregarded since they have a separate timezone name in Windows.) So, map this zone name to plain "CST6", which will provide a fixed UTC offset. As written, this patch will also result in mapping "Central America Daylight Time" to CST6. I considered hacking things so that would still map to CST6CDT, but it seems it would confuse win32tzlist.pl to put those two names in separate entries. Since there's little evidence that any such zone name is used in the wild, much less that CST6CDT would be a good match for it, I'm not too worried about what we do with it. Per complaint from Pratik Chirania.

* Fix another bit of unlogged-table-induced breakage.Robert Haas2011-09-21
| | | | | | | | Per bug #6205, reported by Abel Abraham Camarillo Ojeda. This isn't a particularly elegant fix, but I'm trying to minimize the chances of causing yet another round of breakage. Adjust regression tests to exercise this case.
* Suppress "unused function" warning when not HAVE_LOCALE_T.Tom Lane2011-09-20
| | | | Forgot to consider this case ...
* Improve reporting of newlocale() failures in CREATE COLLATION.Tom Lane2011-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | The standardized errno code for "no such locale" failures is ENOENT, which we were just reporting at face value, viz "No such file or directory". Per gripe from Thom Brown, this might confuse users, so add an errdetail message to clarify what it means. Also, report newlocale() failures as ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE rather than using errcode_for_file_access(), since newlocale()'s errno values aren't necessarily tied directly to file access failures.
* Avoid unnecessary page-level SSI lock check in heap_insert().Tom Lane2011-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | As observed by Heikki, we need not conflict on heap page locks during an insert; heap page locks are only aggregated tuple locks, they don't imply locking "gaps" as index page locks do. So we can avoid some unnecessary conflicts, and also do the SSI check while not holding exclusive lock on the target buffer. Kevin Grittner, reviewed by Jeff Davis. Back-patch to 9.1.
* gistendscan() forgot to free so->giststate.Tom Lane2011-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | This oversight led to a massive memory leak --- upwards of 10KB per tuple --- during creation-time verification of an exclusion constraint based on a GIST index. In most other scenarios it'd just be a leak of 10KB that would be recovered at end of query, so not too significant; though perhaps the leak would be noticeable in a situation where a GIST index was being used in a nestloop inner indexscan. In any case, it's a real leak of long standing, so patch all supported branches. Per report from Harald Fuchs.
* Teach the makefile used to build stand-alone libpq on Windows that libpqHeikki Linnakangas2011-09-14

* deflist_to_tuplestore dumped core on an option with no value.Tom Lane2011-09-13
| | | | | | | Make it return NULL for the option_value, instead. Per report from Frank van Vugt. Back-patch to 8.4 where this code was added.

| | | | | | | | Trailing-zero stripping applied by the FM specifier could strip zeroes to the left of the decimal point, for a format with no digit positions after the decimal point (such as "FM999."). Reported and diagnosed by Marti Raudsepp, though I didn't use his patch.

* Fix get_name_for_var_field() to deal with RECORD Params.Tom Lane2011-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With 9.1's use of Params to pass down values from NestLoop join nodes to their inner plans, it is possible for a Param to have type RECORD, in which case the set of fields comprising the value isn't determinable by inspection of the Param alone. However, just as with a Var of type RECORD, we can find out what we need to know if we can locate the expression that the Param represents. We already knew how to do this in get_parameter(), but I'd overlooked the need to be able to cope in get_name_for_var_field(), which led to EXPLAIN failing with "record type has not been registered". To fix, refactor the search code in get_parameter() so it can be used by both functions. Per report from Marti Raudsepp.
* Avoid possibly accessing off the end of memory in SJIS2004 conversion.Tom Lane2011-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | The code in shift_jis_20042euc_jis_2004() would fetch two bytes even when only one remained in the string. Since conversion functions aren't supposed to assume null-terminated input, this poses a small risk of fetching past the end of memory and incurring SIGSEGV. No such crash has been identified in the field, but we've certainly seen the equivalent happen in other code paths, so patch this one all the way back. Report and patch by Noah Misch.
* Avoid possibly accessing off the end of memory in examine_attribute().Tom Lane2011-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the last couple of columns of pg_type are often NULL, sizeof(FormData_pg_type) can be an overestimate of the actual size of the tuple data part. Therefore memcpy'ing that much out of the catalog cache, as analyze.c was doing, poses a small risk of copying past the end of memory and incurring SIGSEGV. No such crash has been identified in the field, but we've certainly seen the equivalent happen in other code paths, so patch this one all the way back. Per valgrind testing by Noah Misch, though this is not his proposed patch. I chose to use SearchSysCacheCopy1 rather than inventing special-purpose infrastructure for copying only the minimal part of a pg_type tuple.

* Guard against using plperl's Makefile without specifying --with-perl.Tom Lane2011-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | The $(PERL) macro will be set by configure if it finds perl at all, but $(perl_privlibexp) isn't configured unless you said --with-perl. This results in confusing error messages if someone cd's into src/pl/plperl and tries to build there despite the configure omission, as reported by Tomas Vondra in bug #6198. Add simple checks to provide a more useful report, while not disabling other use of the makefile such as "make clean". Back-patch to 9.0, which is as far as the patch applies easily.
* Fix #include problems in 9.1 branch.Tom Lane2011-09-04
| | | | | Remove unnecessary and circular #include of syncrep.h from proc.h. Add htup.h to tablecmds.h so it will compile without prerequisites.
* Fix typo in pg_srand48 (srand48 in older branches).Tom Lane2011-09-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | ">" should be ">>". This typo results in failure to use all of the bits of the provided seed. This might rise to the level of a security bug if we were relying on srand48 for any security-critical purposes, but we are not --- in fact, it's not used at all unless the platform lacks srandom(), which is improbable. Even on such a platform the exposure seems minimal. Reported privately by Andres Freund.

| | | | | | | on Windows. ecpglib doesn't link with libpgport, but picks and compiles the .c files it needs individually. To cope with that, move the setlocale() wrapper from chklocale.c to a separate setlocale.c file, and include that in ecpglib.
* setlocale() on Windows doesn't work correctly if the locale name containsHeikki Linnakangas2011-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dots. I previously worked around this in initdb, mapping the known problematic locale names to aliases that work, but Hiroshi Inoue pointed out that that's not enough because even if you use one of the aliases, like "Chinese_HKG", setlocale(LC_CTYPE, NULL) returns back the long form, ie. "Chinese_Hong Kong S.A.R.". When we try to restore an old locale value by passing that value back to setlocale(), it fails. Note that you are affected by this bug also if you use one of those short-form names manually, so just reverting the hack in initdb won't fix it. To work around that, move the locale name mapping from initdb to a wrapper around setlocale(), so that the mapping is invoked on every setlocale() call. Also, add a few checks for failed setlocale() calls in the backend. These calls shouldn't fail, and if they do there isn't much we can do about it, but at least you'll get a warning. Backpatch to 9.1, where the initdb hack was introduced. The Windows bug affects older versions too if you set locale manually to one of the aliases, but given the lack of complaints from the field, I'm hesitent to backpatch.
* Move the line to undefine setlocale() macro on Win32 outside USE_REPL_SNPRINTFHeikki Linnakangas2011-09-01
| | | | | | ifdef block. It has nothing to do with whether the replacement snprintf function is used. It caused no live bug, because the replacement snprintf function is always used on Win32, but it was nevertheless misplaced.
* Further repair of eqjoinsel ndistinct-clamping logic.Tom Lane2011-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Examination of examples provided by Mark Kirkwood and others has convinced me that actually commit 7f3eba30c9d622d1981b1368f2d79ba0999cdff2 was quite a few bricks shy of a load. The useful part of that patch was clamping ndistinct for the inner side of a semi or anti join, and the reason why that's needed is that it's the only way that restriction clauses eliminating rows from the inner relation can affect the estimated size of the join result. I had not clearly understood why the clamping was appropriate, and so mis-extrapolated to conclude that we should clamp ndistinct for the outer side too, as well as for both sides of regular joins. These latter actions were all wrong, and are reverted with this patch. In addition, the clamping logic is now made to affect the behavior of both paths in eqjoinsel_semi, with or without MCV lists to compare. When we have MCVs, we suppose that the most common values are the ones that are most likely to survive the decimation resulting from a lower restriction clause, so we think of the clamping as eliminating non-MCV values, or potentially even the least-common MCVs for the inner relation. Back-patch to 8.4, same as previous fixes in this area.
* Fix pg_upgrade to preserve toast relfrozenxids for old 8.3 servers.Bruce Momjian2011-08-31
| | | | | | | This fixes a pg_upgrade bug that could lead to query errors when clog files are improperly removed. Backpatch to 8.4, 9.0, 9.1.
* Improve eqjoinsel's ndistinct clamping to work for multiple levels of join.Tom Lane2011-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes an oversight in my commit 7f3eba30c9d622d1981b1368f2d79ba0999cdff2 of 2008-10-23. That patch accounted for baserel restriction clauses that reduced the number of rows coming out of a table (and hence the number of possibly-distinct values of a join variable), but not for join restriction clauses that might have been applied at a lower level of join. To account for the latter, look up the sizes of the min_lefthand and min_righthand inputs of the current join, and clamp with those in the same way as for the base relations. Noted while investigating a complaint from Ben Chobot, although this in itself doesn't seem to explain his report. Back-patch to 8.4; previous versions used different estimation methods for which this heuristic isn't relevant.
* Fix a missed case in code for "moving average" estimate of reltuples.Tom Lane2011-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible for VACUUM to scan no pages at all, if the visibility map shows that all pages are all-visible. In this situation VACUUM has no new information to report about the relation's tuple density, so it wasn't changing pg_class.reltuples ... but it updated pg_class.relpages anyway. That's wrong in general, since there is no evidence to justify changing the density ratio reltuples/relpages, but it's particularly bad if the previous state was relpages=reltuples=0, which means "unknown tuple density". We just replaced "unknown" with "zero". ANALYZE would eventually recover from this, but it could take a lot of repetitions of ANALYZE to do so if the relation size is much larger than the maximum number of pages ANALYZE will scan, because of the moving-average behavior introduced by commit b4b6923e03f4d29636a94f6f4cc2f5cf6298b8c8. The only known situation where we could have relpages=reltuples=0 and yet the visibility map asserts everything's visible is immediately following a pg_upgrade. It might be advisable for pg_upgrade to try to preserve the relpages/reltuples statistics; but in any case this code is wrong on its own terms, so fix it. Per report from Sergey Koposov. Back-patch to 8.4, where the visibility map was introduced, same as the previous change.
* Fix concat_ws() to not insert a separator after leading NULL argument(s).Tom Lane2011-08-29
| | | | | Per bug #6181 from Itagaki Takahiro. Also do some marginal code cleanup and improve error handling.
* Actually, all of parallel restore's limitations should be tested earlier.Tom Lane2011-08-28
| | | | | | | | | On closer inspection, whining in restore_toc_entries_parallel is really much too late for any user-facing error case. The right place to do it is at the start of RestoreArchive(), before we've done anything interesting (suh as trying to DROP all the targets ...) Back-patch to 8.4, where parallel restore was introduced.
* Be more user-friendly about unsupported cases for parallel pg_restore.Tom Lane2011-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | If we are unable to do a parallel restore because the input file is stdin or is otherwise unseekable, we should complain and fail immediately, not after having done some of the restore. Complaining once per thread isn't so cool either, and the messages should be worded to make it clear this is an unsupported case not some weird race-condition bug. Per complaint from Lonni Friedman. Back-patch to 8.4, where parallel restore was introduced.
* Don't assume that "E" response to NEGOTIATE_SSL_CODE means pre-7.0 server.Tom Lane2011-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These days, such a response is far more likely to signify a server-side problem, such as fork failure. Reporting "server does not support SSL" (in sslmode=require) could be quite misleading. But the results could be even worse in sslmode=prefer: if the problem was transient and the next connection attempt succeeds, we'll have silently fallen back to protocol version 2.0, possibly disabling features the user needs. Hence, it seems best to just eliminate the assumption that backing off to non-SSL/2.0 protocol is the way to recover from an "E" response, and instead treat the server error the same as we would in non-SSL cases. I tested this change against a pre-7.0 server, and found that there was a second logic bug in the "prefer" path: the test to decide whether to make a fallback connection attempt assumed that we must have opened conn->ssl, which in fact does not happen given an "E" response. After fixing that, the code does indeed connect successfully to pre-7.0, as long as you didn't set sslmode=require. (If you did, you get "Unsupported frontend protocol", which isn't completely off base given the server certainly doesn't support SSL.) Since there seems no reason to believe that pre-7.0 servers exist anymore in the wild, back-patch to all supported branches.
