* Fix portability problem in pgbench.Tom Lane2019-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pgbench regression test supposed that srandom() with a specific value would result in deterministic output from random(), as required by POSIX. It emerges however that OpenBSD is too smart to be constrained by mere standards, so their random() emits nondeterministic output anyway. While a workaround does exist, what seems like a better fix is to stop relying on the platform's srandom()/random() altogether, so that what you get from --random-seed=N is not merely deterministic but platform independent. Hence, use a separate pg_jrand48() random sequence in place of random(). Also adjust the regression test case that's supposed to detect nondeterminism so that it's more likely to detect it; the original choice of random_zipfian parameter tended to produce the same output all the time even if the underlying behavior wasn't deterministic. In passing, improve pgbench's docs about random_zipfian(). Back-patch to v11 where this code was introduced. Fabien Coelho and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4615.1547792324@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Blind attempt to fix _configthreadlocale() failures on MinGW.Tom Lane2019-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | Apparently, some builds of MinGW contain a version of _configthreadlocale() that always returns -1, indicating failure. Rather than treating that as a curl-up-and-die condition, soldier on as though the function didn't exist. This leaves us without thread safety on such MinGW versions, but we didn't have it anyway.

* Avoid thread-safety problem in ecpglib.Tom Lane2019-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ecpglib attempts to force the LC_NUMERIC locale to "C" while reading server output, to avoid problems with strtod() and related functions. Historically it's just issued setlocale() calls to do that, but that has major problems if we're in a threaded application. setlocale() itself is not required by POSIX to be thread-safe (and indeed is not, on recent OpenBSD). Moreover, its effects are process-wide, so that we could cause unexpected results in other threads, or another thread could change our setting. On platforms having uselocale(), which is required by POSIX:2008, we can avoid these problems by using uselocale() instead. Windows goes its own way as usual, but we can make it safe by using _configthreadlocale(). Platforms having neither continue to use the old code, but that should be pretty much nobody among current systems. (Subsequent buildfarm results show that recent NetBSD versions still lack uselocale(), but it's not a big problem because they also do not support non-"C" settings for LC_NUMERIC.)

* Create action triggers when partitions are detachedAlvaro Herrera2019-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Detaching a partition from a partitioned table that's constrained by foreign keys requires additional action triggers on the referenced side; otherwise, DELETE/UPDATE actions there fail to notice rows in the table that was partition, and so are incorrectly allowed through. With this commit, those triggers are now created. Conversely, when a table that has a foreign key is attached as a partition to a table that also has the same foreign key, those action triggers are no longer needed, so we remove them. Add a minimal test case verifying (part of) this. Authors: Amit Langote, Álvaro Herrera Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/f2b8ead5-4131-d5a8-8016-2ea0a31250af@lab.ntt.co.jp
* Flush relcache entries when their FKs are meddled withAlvaro Herrera2019-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Back in commit 100340e2dcd0, we made relcache entries keep lists of the foreign keys applying to the relation -- but we forgot to update CacheInvalidateHeapTuple to flush those entries when new FKs got created or existing ones updated/deleted. No bugs appear to have been reported that would be explained by this ommission, but I noticed the problem while working on an unrelated bugfix which clearly showed it. Fix by adding relcache flush on relevant foreign key changes. Backpatch to 9.6, like the aforementioned commit.

* Postpone generating tlists and EC members for inheritance dummy children.Etsuro Fujita2019-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, in set_append_rel_size(), we generated tlists and EC members for dummy children for possible use by partition-wise join, even if partition-wise join was disabled or the top parent was not a partitioned table, but adding such EC members causes noticeable planning speed degradation for queries with certain kinds of join quals like "(foo.x + bar.y) = constant" where foo and bar are partitioned tables in cases where there are lots of dummy children, as the EC members lists grow huge, especially for the ECs derived from such join quals, which makes the search for the parent EC members in add_child_rel_equivalences() very time-consuming. Postpone the work until such children are actually involved in a partition-wise join.

* Use our own getopt() on OpenBSD.Tom Lane2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent OpenBSD (at least 5.9 and up) has a version of getopt(3) that will not cope with the "-:" spec we use to accept double-dash options in postgres.c and postmaster.c. Admittedly, that's a hack because POSIX only requires getopt() to allow alphanumeric option characters. I have no desire to find another way, however, so let's just do what we were already doing on Solaris: force use of our own src/port/getopt.c implementation. In passing, improve some of the comments around said implementation. Per buildfarm and local testing. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix creation of duplicate foreign keys on partitionsAlvaro Herrera2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a foreign key in a partitioned table, if some partitions already have equivalent constraints, we wastefully create duplicates of the constraints instead of attaching to the existing ones. That's inconsistent with the de-duplication that is applied when a table is attached as a partition. To fix, reuse the FK-cloning code instead of having a separate code path. Backpatch to Postgres 11. This is a subtle behavior change, but surely a welcome one since there's no use in having duplicate foreign keys. Discovered by Álvaro Herrera while thinking about a different problem reported by Jesper Pedersen (bug #15587).

* Move CloneForeignKeyConstraints to tablecmds.cAlvaro Herrera2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My commit 3de241dba86f introduced some code to create a clone of a foreign key to a partition, but I put it in pg_constraint.c because it was too close to the contents of the pg_constraint row. With the previous commit that split out the constraint tuple deconstruction into its own routine, it makes more sense to have the FK-cloning function in tablecmds.c, mostly because its static subroutine can then be used by a future bugfix. My initial posting of this patch had this routine as static in tablecmds.c, but sadly this function is already part of the Postgres 11 ABI as exported from pg_constraint.c, so keep it as exported also just to avoid breaking any possible users of it.
* Refactor duplicate code into DeconstructFkConstraintRowAlvaro Herrera2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | My commit 3de241dba86f introduced some code (in tablecmds.c) to obtain data from a pg_constraint row for a foreign key, that already existed in ri_triggers.c. Split it out into its own routine in pg_constraint.c, where it naturally belongs. No functional code changes, only code movement. Backpatch to pg11, because a future bugfix is simpler after this.

* Restrict the use of temporary namespace in two-phase transactionsMichael Paquier2019-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempting to use a temporary table within a two-phase transaction is forbidden for ages. However, there have been uncovered grounds for a couple of other object types and commands which work on temporary objects with two-phase commit. In short, trying to create, lock or drop an object on a temporary schema should not be authorized within a two-phase transaction, as it would cause its state to create dependencies with other sessions, causing all sorts of side effects with the existing session or other sessions spawned later on trying to use the same temporary schema name. Regression tests are added to cover all the grounds found, the original report mentioned function creation, but monitoring closer there are many other patterns with LOCK, DROP or CREATE EXTENSION which are involved. One of the symptoms resulting in combining both is that the session which used the temporary schema is not able to shut down completely, waiting for being able to drop the temporary schema, something that it cannot complete because of the two-phase transaction involved with temporary objects. In this case the client is able to disconnect but the session remains alive on the backend-side, potentially blocking connection backend slots from being used. Other problems reported could also involve server crashes. This is back-patched down to v10, which is where 9b013dc has introduced MyXactFlags, something that this patch relies on.

* Postpone aggregate checks until after collation is assigned.Andrew Gierth2019-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, parseCheckAggregates was run before assign_query_collations, but this causes problems if any expression has already had a collation assigned by some transform function (e.g. transformCaseExpr) before parseCheckAggregates runs. The differing collations would cause expressions not to be recognized as equal to the ones in the GROUP BY clause, leading to spurious errors about unaggregated column references. The result was that CASE expr WHEN val ... would fail when "expr" contained a GROUPING() expression or matched one of the group by expressions, and where collatable types were involved; whereas the supposedly identical CASE WHEN expr = val ... would succeed. Backpatch all the way; this appears to have been wrong ever since collations were introduced. Per report from Guillaume Lelarge, analysis and patch by me.

* Fix up confusion over how to use EXTRA_INSTALL.Tom Lane2019-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some makefiles were trying to do this: temp-install: EXTRA_INSTALL=contrib/test_decoding but that no longer works as of commit aa019da52: the macro is now consulted by the checkprep target, one level down, and apparently gmake doesn't propagate such macro settings recursively. The problem is masked since 42e61c774 because pgxs.mk also sets up EXTRA_INSTALL, and correctly applies it to the checkprep target. Unfortunately I'd not risked back-patching that to before v11. Since aa019da52 was pushed back to v10, it broke test_decoding there (the only module for which this actually makes a difference at present). Hence, back-patch 42e61c774 to v10. Also, remove some demonstrably useless settings of EXTRA_INSTALL in v10 and v11 (they'd already been cleaned up in HEAD). Per buildfarm.

* Avoid sharing PARAM_EXEC slots between different levels of NestLoop.Tom Lane2019-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, createplan.c attempted to share PARAM_EXEC slots for NestLoopParams across different plan levels, if the same underlying Var was being fed down to different righthand-side subplan trees by different NestLoops. This was, I think, more of an artifact of using subselect.c's PlannerParamItem infrastructure than an explicit design goal, but anyway that was the end result. This works well enough as long as the plan tree is executing synchronously, but the feature whereby Gather can execute the parallelized subplan locally breaks it. An upper NestLoop node might execute for a row retrieved from a parallel worker, and assign a value for a PARAM_EXEC slot from that row, while the leader's copy of the parallelized subplan is suspended with a different active value of the row the Var comes from. When control eventually returns to the leader's subplan, it gets the wrong answers if the same PARAM_EXEC slot is being used within the subplan, as reported in bug #15577 from Bartosz Polnik. This is pretty reminiscent of the problem fixed in commit 46c508fbc, and the proper fix seems to be the same: don't try to share PARAM_EXEC slots across different levels of controlling NestLoop nodes. This requires decoupling NestLoopParam handling from PlannerParamItem handling, although the logic remains somewhat similar. To avoid bizarre division of labor between subselect.c and createplan.c, I decided to move all the param-slot-assignment logic for both cases out of those files and put it into a new file paramassign.c. Hopefully it's a bit better documented now, too. A regression test case for this might be nice, but we don't know a test case that triggers the problem with a suitably small amount of data. Back-patch to 9.6 where we added Gather nodes. It's conceivable that related problems exist in older branches; but without some evidence for that, I'll leave the older branches alone.

* Update docs & tests to reflect that unassigned OLD/NEW are now NULL.Tom Lane2019-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a long time, plpgsql has allowed trigger functions to parse references to OLD and NEW even if the current trigger event type didn't assign a value to one or the other variable; but actually executing such a reference would fail. The v11 changes to use "expanded records" for DTYPE_REC variables changed the behavior so that the unassigned variable now reads as a null composite value. While this behavioral change was more or less unintentional, it seems that leaving it like this is better than adding code and complexity to be bug-compatible with the old way. The change doesn't break any code that worked before, and it eliminates a gotcha that often required extra code to work around. Hence, update the docs to say that these variables are "null" not "unassigned" when not relevant to the event type. And add a regression test covering the behavior, so that we'll notice if we ever break it again. Per report from Kristjan Tammekivi.

* Improve ANALYZE's handling of concurrent-update scenarios.Tom Lane2019-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the rule for whether or not a tuple seen by ANALYZE should be included in its sample. When we last touched this logic, in commit 51e1445f1, we weren't thinking very hard about tuples being UPDATEd by a long-running concurrent transaction. In such a case, we might see the pre-image as either LIVE or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS depending on timing; and we might see the post-image not at all, or as INSERT_IN_PROGRESS. Since the existing code will not sample either DELETE_IN_PROGRESS or INSERT_IN_PROGRESS tuples, this leads to concurrently-updated rows being omitted from the sample entirely. That's not very helpful, and it's especially the wrong thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back. The right thing seems to be to sample DELETE_IN_PROGRESS rows just as if they were live. This makes the "sample it" and "count it" decisions the same, which seems good for consistency. It's clearly the right thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back; in effect, we are sampling as though IN_PROGRESS transactions haven't happened yet. Also, this combination of choices ensures maximum robustness against the different combinations of whether and in which state we might see the pre- and post-images of an update. It's slightly annoying that we end up recording immediately-out-of-date stats in the case where the transaction does commit, but on the other hand the stats are fine for columns that didn't change in the update. And the alternative of sampling INSERT_IN_PROGRESS rows instead seems like a bad idea, because then the sampling would be inconsistent with the way rows are counted for the stats report. Per report from Mark Chambers; thanks to Jeff Janes for diagnosing what was happening. Back-patch to all supported versions.

* Don't believe MinMaxExpr is leakproof without checking.Tom Lane2019-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MinMaxExpr invokes the btree comparison function for its input datatype, so it's only leakproof if that function is. Many such functions are indeed leakproof, but others are not, and we should not just assume that they are.

* Fix latent problem with pg_jrand48().Tom Lane2018-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | POSIX specifies that jrand48() returns a signed 32-bit value (in the range [-2^31, 2^31)), but our code was returning an unsigned 32-bit value (in the range [0, 2^32)). This doesn't actually matter to any existing call site, because they all cast the "long" result to int32 or uint32; but it will doubtless bite somebody in the future. To fix, cast the arithmetic result to int32 explicitly before the compiler widens it to long (if widening is needed). While at it, upgrade this file's far-short-of-project-style comments. Had there been some peer pressure to document pg_jrand48() properly, maybe this thinko wouldn't have gotten committed to begin with. Backpatch to v10 where pg_jrand48() was added, just in case somebody back-patches a fix that uses it and depends on the standard behavior.

* Reduce length of GIN predicate locking isolation test suiteAlexander Korotkov2018-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Isolation test suite of GIN predicate locking was criticized for being too slow, especially under Valgrind. This commit is intended to accelerate it. Tests are simplified in the following ways. 1) Amount of data is reduced. We're now close to the minimal amount of data, which produces at least one posting tree and at least two pages of entry tree. 2) Three isolation tests are merged into one. 3) Only one tuple is queried from posting tree. So, locking of index is the same, but tuple locks are not propagated to relation lock. Also, it is faster. 4) Test cases itself are simplified. Now each test case run just one INSERT and one SELECT involving GIN, which either conflict or not.

* Remove entry tree root conflict checking from GIN predicate lockingAlexander Korotkov2018-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to README we acquire predicate locks on entry tree leafs and posting tree roots. However, when ginFindLeafPage() is going to lock leaf in exclusive mode, then it checks root for conflicts regardless whether it's a entry or posting tree. Assuming that we never place predicate lock on entry tree root (excluding corner case when root is leaf), this check is redundant. This commit removes this check. Now, root conflict checking is controlled by separate argument of ginFindLeafPage().

* Ignore inherited temp relations from other sessions when truncatingMichael Paquier2018-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Inheritance trees can include temporary tables if the parent is permanent, which makes possible the presence of multiple temporary children from different sessions. Trying to issue a TRUNCATE on the parent in this scenario causes a failure, so similarly to any other queries just ignore such cases, which makes TRUNCATE work transparently. This makes truncation behave similarly to any other DML query working on the parent table with queries which need to be issues on children. A set of isolation tests is added to cover basic cases.

* Fix portability failure introduced in commits d2b0b60e7 et al.Tom Lane2018-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | I made a frontend fprintf() format use %m, forgetting that that's only safe in HEAD not the back branches; prior to 96bf88d52 and d6c55de1f, it would work on glibc platforms but not elsewhere. Revert to using %s ... strerror(errno) as the code did before. We could have left HEAD as-is, but for code consistency across branches, I chose to apply this patch there too. Per Coverity and a few buildfarm members.
* Prioritize history files when archivingMichael Paquier2018-12-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the end of recovery for the post-promotion process, a new history file is created followed by the last partial segment of the previous timeline. Based on the timing, the archiver would first try to archive the last partial segment and then the history file. This can delay the detection of a new timeline taken, particularly depending on the time it takes to transfer the last partial segment as it delays the moment the history file of the new timeline gets archived. This can cause promoted standbys to use the same timeline as one already taken depending on the circumstances if multiple instances look at archives at the same location. This commit changes the order of archiving so as history files are archived in priority over other file types, which reduces the likelihood of the same timeline being taken (still not reducing the window to zero), and it makes the archiver behave more consistently with the startup process doing its post-promotion business.

* Disable WAL-skipping optimization for COPY on views and foreign tablesMichael Paquier2018-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | COPY can skip writing WAL when loading data on a table which has been created in the same transaction as the one loading the data, however this cannot work on views or foreign table as this would result in trying to flush relation files which do not exist. So disable the optimization so as commands are able to work the same way with any configuration of wal_level. Tests are added to cover the different cases, which need to have wal_level set to minimal to allow the problem to show up, and that is not the default configuration. Reported-by: Luis M.

* Check for conflicting queries during replay of gistvacuumpage()Alexander Korotkov2018-12-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 013ebc0a7b implements so-called GiST microvacuum. That is gistgettuple() marks index tuples as dead when kill_prior_tuple is set. Later, when new tuple insertion claims page space, those dead index tuples are physically deleted from page. When this deletion is replayed on standby, it might conflict with read-only queries. But 013ebc0a7b doesn't handle this. That may lead to disappearance of some tuples from read-only snapshots on standby. This commit implements resolving of conflicts between replay of GiST microvacuum and standby queries. On the master we implement new WAL record type XLOG_GIST_DELETE, which comprises necessary information. On stable releases we've to be tricky to keep WAL compatibility. Information required for conflict processing is just appended to data of XLOG_GIST_PAGE_UPDATE record. So, PostgreSQL version, which doesn't know about conflict processing, will just ignore that.
