* Remove last traces of heap_open/close in the treeMichael Paquier2019-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since pluggable storage has been introduced, those two routines have been replaced by table_open/close, with some compatibility macros still present to allow extensions to compile correctly with v12. Some code paths using the old routines still remained, so replace them. Based on the discussion done, the consensus reached is that it is better to remove those compatibility macros so as nothing new uses the old routines, so remove also the compatibility macros.

* Fix failure of archive recovery with recovery_min_apply_delay enabled.Fujii Masao2019-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | recovery_min_apply_delay parameter is intended for use with streaming replication deployments. However, the document clearly explains that the parameter will be honored in all cases if it's specified. So it should take effect even if in archive recovery. But, previously, archive recovery with recovery_min_apply_delay enabled always failed, and caused assertion failure if --enable-caasert is enabled. The cause of this problem is that; the ownership of recoveryWakeupLatch that recovery_min_apply_delay uses was taken only when standby mode is requested. So unowned latch could be used in archive recovery, and which caused the failure. This commit changes recovery code so that the ownership of recoveryWakeupLatch is taken even in archive recovery. Which prevents archive recovery with recovery_min_apply_delay from failing. Back-patch to v9.4 where recovery_min_apply_delay was added.

* Make crash recovery ignore recovery_min_apply_delay setting.Fujii Masao2019-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In v11 or before, this setting could not take effect in crash recovery because it's specified in recovery.conf and crash recovery always starts without recovery.conf. But commit 2dedf4d9a8 integrated recovery.conf into postgresql.conf and which unexpectedly allowed this setting to take effect even in crash recovery. This is definitely not good behavior. To fix the issue, this commit makes crash recovery always ignore recovery_min_apply_delay setting. Back-patch to v12 where the issue was added.

* Fix timeout handling in logical replication workerMichael Paquier2019-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The timestamp tracking the last moment a message is received in a logical replication worker was initialized in each loop checking if a message was received or not, causing wal_receiver_timeout to be ignored in basically any logical replication deployments. This also broke the ping sent to the server when reaching half of wal_receiver_timeout. This simply moves the initialization of the timestamp out of the apply loop to the beginning of LogicalRepApplyLoop().

* Fix minor bug in logical-replication walsender shutdownAlvaro Herrera2019-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Logical walsender should exit when it catches up with sending WAL during shutdown; but there was a rare corner case when it failed to because of a race condition that puts it back to wait for more WAL instead -- but since there wasn't any, it'd not shut down immediately. It would only continue the shutdown when wal_sender_timeout terminates the sleep, which causes annoying waits during shutdown procedure. Restructure the code so that we no longer forget to set WalSndCaughtUp in that case. This was an oversight in commit c6c333436. Backpatch all the way down to 9.4.

* Fix parallel restore of FKs to partitioned tablesAlvaro Herrera2019-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an FK constraint is created, it needs the index on the referenced table to exist and be valid. When doing parallel pg_restore and the referenced table was partitioned, this condition can sometimes not be met, because pg_dump didn't emit sufficient object dependencies to ensure so; this means that parallel pg_restore would fail in certain conditions. Fix by having pg_dump make the FK constraint object dependent on the partition attachment objects for the constraint's referenced index. This has been broken since f56f8f8da6af, so backpatch to Postgres 12. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20191005224333.GA9738@alvherre.pgsql

* Improve the check for pg_catalog.unknown data type in pg_upgradeTomas Vondra2019-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pg_upgrade check for pg_catalog.unknown type when upgrading from 9.6 had a couple of issues with domains and composite types - it detected even composite types unused in objects with storage. So for example this was enough to trigger an unnecessary pg_upgrade failure: CREATE TYPE unknown_composite AS (u pg_catalog.unknown) On the other hand, this only happened with composite types directly on the pg_catalog.unknown data type, but not with a domain. So this was not detected CREATE DOMAIN unknown_domain AS pg_catalog.unknown; CREATE TYPE unknown_composite_2 AS (u unknown_domain); unlike the first example. These false positives and inconsistencies are unfortunate, but what's worse we've failed to detected objects using the pg_catalog.unknown type through a domain. So we missed cases like this CREATE TABLE t (u unknown_composite_2); The consequence is clusters broken after a pg_upgrade.

* Check for tables with sql_identifier during pg_upgradeTomas Vondra2019-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7c15cef86d changed sql_identifier data type to be based on name instead of varchar. Unfortunately, this breaks on-disk format for this data type. Luckily, that should be a very rare problem, as this data type is used only in information_schema views, so this only affects user objects (tables, materialized views and indexes). One way to end in such situation is to do CTAS with a query on those system views. There are two options to deal with this - we can either abort pg_upgrade if there are user objects with sql_identifier columns in pg_upgrade, or we could replace the sql_identifier type with varchar. Considering how rare the issue is expected to be, and the complexity of replacing the data type (e.g. in matviews), we've decided to go with the simple check. The query is somewhat complex - the sql_identifier data type may be used indirectly - through a domain, a composite type or both, possibly in multiple levels. Detecting this requires a recursive CTE. Backpatch to 12, where the sql_identifier definition changed.

* In the postmaster, rely on the signal infrastructure to block signals.Tom Lane2019-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | POSIX sigaction(2) can be told to block a set of signals while a signal handler executes. Make use of that instead of manually blocking and unblocking signals in the postmaster's signal handlers. This should save a few cycles, and it also prevents recursive invocation of signal handlers when many signals arrive in close succession. We have seen buildfarm failures that seem to be due to postmaster stack overflow caused by such recursion (exacerbated by a Linux PPC64 kernel bug). This doesn't change anything about the way that it works on Windows. Somebody might consider adjusting port/win32/signal.c to let it work similarly, but I'm not in a position to do that. For the moment, just apply to HEAD. Possibly we should consider back-patching this, but it'd be good to let it age awhile first. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/14878.1570820201@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Fix dependency handling of column drop with partitioned tablesMichael Paquier2019-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When dropping a column on a partitioned table which has one or more partitioned indexes, the operation was failing as dependencies with partitioned indexes using the column dropped were not getting removed in a way consistent with the columns involved across all the relations part of an inheritance tree. This commit refactors the code executing column drop so as all the columns from an inheritance tree to remove are gathered first, and dropped all at the end. This way, we let the dependency machinery sort out by itself the deletion of all the columns with the partitioned indexes across a partition tree.

* Put back pqsignal() as an exported libpq symbol.Tom Lane2019-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit f7ab80285. Per discussion, we can't remove an exported symbol without a SONAME bump, which we don't want to do. In particular that breaks usage of current libpq.so with pre-9.3 versions of psql etc, which need libpq to export pqsignal(). As noted in that commit message, exporting the symbol from libpgport.a won't work reliably; but actually we don't want to export src/port's implementation anyway. Any pre-9.3 client is going to be expecting the definition that pqsignal() had before 9.3, which was that it didn't set SA_RESTART for SIGALRM. Hence, put back pqsignal() in a separate source file in src/interfaces/libpq, and give it the old semantics. Back-patch to v12.

* Check for too many postmaster children before spawning a bgworker.Tom Lane2019-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The postmaster's code path for spawning a bgworker neglected to check whether we already have the max number of live child processes. That's a bit hard to hit, since it would necessarily be a transient condition; but if we do, AssignPostmasterChildSlot() fails causing a postmaster crash, as seen in a report from Bhargav Kamineni. To fix, invoke canAcceptConnections() in the bgworker code path, as we do in the other code paths that spawn children. Since we don't want the same pmState tests in this case, add a child-process-type parameter to canAcceptConnections() so that it can know what to do. Back-patch to 9.5. In principle the same hazard exists in 9.4, but the code is enough different that this patch wouldn't quite fix it there.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This includes a couple of changes around the new behavior of pg_rewind which enforces recovery to happen once on a cluster not shut down cleanly: - Some comments and documentation improvements. - Shutdown the cluster to rewind with immediate mode in all the tests, this allows to check after the forced recovery behavior which is wanted as new default. - Use -F for the forced recovery step, so as postgres does not use fsync. This was useless as a final sync is done once the tool is done. Author: Michael Paquier Reviewed-by: Alexey Kondratov Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20191004083721.GA1829@paquier.xyz
* Avoid trying to release a List's initial allocation via repalloc().Tom Lane2019-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 1cff1b95a included some code that supposed it could repalloc() a memory chunk to a smaller size without risk of the chunk moving. That was not a great idea, because it depended on undocumented behavior of AllocSetRealloc, which commit c477f3e44 changed thereby breaking it. (Not to mention that this code ought to work with other memory context types, which might not work the same...) So get rid of the repalloc calls, and instead just wipe the now-unused ListCell array and/or tell Valgrind it's NOACCESS, as if we'd freed it. In cases where the initial list allocation had been quite large, this could represent an annoying waste of space. In principle we could ameliorate that by allocating the initial cell array separately when it exceeds some threshold. But that would complicate new_list() which is hot code, and the returns would materialize only in narrow cases. On balance I don't think it'd be worth it.

* Change MemoryContextMemAllocated to return SizeTomas Vondra2019-10-05
| | | | | | | | Commit f2369bc610 switched most of the memory accounting from int64 to Size, but it forgot to change the MemoryContextMemAllocated return type. So this fixes that omission. Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/11238.1570200198%40sss.pgh.pa.us
* Report test_atomic_ops() failures consistently, via macros.Noah Misch2019-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | This prints the unexpected value in more failure cases, and it removes forty-eight hand-maintained error messages. Back-patch to 9.5, which introduced these tests.
