* In transformRowExpr(), check for too many columns in the row.Tom Lane2022-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A RowExpr with more than MaxTupleAttributeNumber columns would fail at execution anyway, since we cannot form a tuple datum with more than that many columns. While heap_form_tuple() has a check for too many columns, it emerges that there are some intermediate bits of code that don't check and can be driven to failure with sufficiently many columns. Checking this at parse time seems like the most appropriate place to install a defense, since we already check SELECT list length there. While at it, make the SELECT-list-length error use the same errcode (TOO_MANY_COLUMNS) as heap_form_tuple does, rather than the generic PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED. Per bug #17561 from Egor Chindyaskin. The given test case crashes in all supported branches (and probably a lot further back), so patch all. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17561-80350151b9ad2ad4@postgresql.org

* Fix replay of create database records on standbyAlvaro Herrera2022-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Crash recovery on standby may encounter missing directories when replaying database-creation WAL records. Prior to this patch, the standby would fail to recover in such a case; however, the directories could be legitimately missing. Consider the following sequence of commands: CREATE DATABASE DROP DATABASE DROP TABLESPACE If, after replaying the last WAL record and removing the tablespace directory, the standby crashes and has to replay the create database record again, crash recovery must be able to continue. A fix for this problem was already attempted in 49d9cfc68bf4, but it was reverted because of design issues. This new version is based on Robert Haas' proposal: any missing tablespaces are created during recovery before reaching consistency. Tablespaces are created as real directories, and should be deleted by later replay. CheckRecoveryConsistency ensures they have disappeared. The problems detected by this new code are reported as PANIC, except when allow_in_place_tablespaces is set to ON, in which case they are WARNING. Apart from making tests possible, this gives users an escape hatch in case things don't go as planned.

* Force immediate commit after CREATE DATABASE etc in extended protocol.Tom Lane2022-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have a few commands that "can't run in a transaction block", meaning that if they complete their processing but then we fail to COMMIT, we'll be left with inconsistent on-disk state. However, the existing defenses for this are only watertight for simple query protocol. In extended protocol, we didn't commit until receiving a Sync message. Since the client is allowed to issue another command instead of Sync, we're in trouble if that command fails or is an explicit ROLLBACK. In any case, sitting in an inconsistent state while waiting for a client message that might not come seems pretty risky. This case wasn't reachable via libpq before we introduced pipeline mode, but it's always been an intended aspect of extended query protocol, and likely there are other clients that could reach it before. To fix, set a flag in PreventInTransactionBlock that tells exec_execute_message to force an immediate commit. This seems to be the approach that does least damage to existing working cases while still preventing the undesirable outcomes. While here, add some documentation to protocol.sgml that explicitly says how to use pipelining. That's latent in the existing docs if you know what to look for, but it's better to spell it out; and it provides a place to document this new behavior. Per bug #17434 from Yugo Nagata. It's been wrong for ages, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17434-d9f7a064ce2a88a3@postgresql.org
* Fix ruleutils issues with dropped cols in functions-returning-composite.Tom Lane2022-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to lack of concern for the case in the dependency code, it's possible to drop a column of a composite type even though stored queries have references to the dropped column via functions-in-FROM that return the composite type. There are "soft" references, namely FROM-clause aliases for such columns, and "hard" references, that is actual Vars referring to them. The right fix for hard references is to add dependencies preventing the drop; something we've known for many years and not done (and this commit still doesn't address it). A "soft" reference shouldn't prevent a drop though. We've been around on this before (cf. 9b35ddce9, 2c4debbd0), but nobody had noticed that the current behavior can result in dump/reload failures, because ruleutils.c can print more column aliases than the underlying composite type now has. So we need to rejigger the column-alias-handling code to treat such columns as dropped and not print aliases for them. Rather than writing new code for this, I used expandRTE() which already knows how to figure out which function result columns are dropped. I'd initially thought maybe we could use expandRTE() in all cases, but that fails for EXPLAIN's purposes, because the planner strips a lot of RTE infrastructure that expandRTE() needs. So this patch just uses it for unplanned function RTEs and otherwise does things the old way. If there is a hard reference (Var), then removing the column alias causes us to fail to print the Var, since there's no longer a name to print. Failing seems less desirable than printing a made-up name, so I made it print "?dropped?column?" instead. Per report from Timo Stolz. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix assertion failure and segmentation fault in backup code.Fujii Masao2022-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a non-exclusive backup is canceled, do_pg_abort_backup() is called and resets some variables set by pg_backup_start (pg_start_backup in v14 or before). But previously it forgot to reset the session state indicating whether a non-exclusive backup is in progress or not in this session. This issue could cause an assertion failure when the session running BASE_BACKUP is terminated after it executed pg_backup_start and pg_backup_stop (pg_stop_backup in v14 or before). Also it could cause a segmentation fault when pg_backup_stop is called after BASE_BACKUP in the same session is canceled.

* Prevent BASE_BACKUP in the middle of another backup in the same session.Fujii Masao2022-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Multiple non-exclusive backups are able to be run conrrently in different sessions. But, in the same session, only one non-exclusive backup can be run at the same moment. If pg_backup_start (pg_start_backup in v14 or before) is called in the middle of another non-exclusive backup in the same session, an error is thrown. However, previously, in logical replication walsender mode, even if that walsender session had already called pg_backup_start and started a non-exclusive backup, it could execute BASE_BACKUP command and start another non-exclusive backup. Which caused subsequent pg_backup_stop to throw an error because BASE_BACKUP unexpectedly reset the session state marked by pg_backup_start. This commit prevents BASE_BACKUP command in the middle of another non-exclusive backup in the same session. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Make dsm_impl_posix_resize more future-proof.Thomas Munro2022-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 4518c798 blocks signals for a short region of code, but it assumed that whatever called it had the signal mask set to UnBlockSig on entry. That may be true today (or may even not be, in extensions in the wild), but it would be better not to make that assumption. We should save-and-restore the caller's signal mask. The PG_SETMASK() portability macro couldn't be used for that, which is why it wasn't done before. But... considering that commit a65e0864 established back in 9.6 that supported POSIX systems have sigprocmask(), and that this is POSIX-only code, there is no reason not to use standard sigprocmask() directly to achieve that.

* Block signals while allocating DSM memory.Thomas Munro2022-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On Linux, we call posix_fallocate() on shm_open()'d memory to avoid later potential SIGBUS (see commit 899bd785). Based on field reports of systems stuck in an EINTR retry loop there, there, we made it possible to break out of that loop via slightly odd coding where the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() call was somewhat removed from the loop (see commit 422952ee). On further reflection, that was not a great choice for at least two reasons: 1. If interrupts were held, the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() would do nothing and the EINTR error would be surfaced to the user. 2. If EINTR was reported but neither QueryCancelPending nor ProcDiePending was set, then we'd dutifully retry, but with a bit more understanding of how posix_fallocate() works, it's now clear that you can get into a loop that never terminates. posix_fallocate() is not a function that can do some of the job and tell you about progress if it's interrupted, it has to undo what it's done so far and report EINTR, and if signals keep arriving faster than it can complete (cf recovery conflict signals), you're stuck. Therefore, for now, we'll simply block most signals to guarantee progress. SIGQUIT is not blocked (see InitPostmasterChild()), because its expected handler doesn't return, and unblockable signals like SIGCONT are not expected to arrive at a high rate. For good measure, we'll include the ftruncate() call in the blocked region, and add a retry loop. Back-patch to all supported releases.

* Fix lock assertions in dshash.c.Thomas Munro2022-07-11

* Fix alias matching in transformLockingClause().Dean Rasheed2022-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When locking a specific named relation for a FOR [KEY] UPDATE/SHARE clause, transformLockingClause() finds the relation to lock by scanning the rangetable for an RTE with a matching eref->aliasname. However, it failed to account for the visibility rules of a join RTE. If a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, it will have a generated eref->aliasname of "unnamed_join" that is not visible as a relation name in the parse namespace. Such an RTE needs to be skipped, otherwise it might be found in preference to a regular base relation with a user-supplied alias of "unnamed_join", preventing it from being locked. In addition, if a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, but does have a join_using_alias, then the RTE needs to be matched using that alias rather than the generated eref->aliasname, otherwise a misleading "relation not found" error will be reported rather than a "join cannot be locked" error. Backpatch all the way, except for the second part which only goes back to 14, where JOIN USING aliases were added. Dean Rasheed, reviewed by Tom Lane.

* ecpglib: call newlocale() once per process.Noah Misch2022-07-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ecpglib has been calling it once per SQL query and once per EXEC SQL GET DESCRIPTOR. Instead, if newlocale() has not succeeded before, call it while establishing a connection. This mitigates three problems: - If newlocale() failed in EXEC SQL GET DESCRIPTOR, the command silently proceeded without the intended locale change. - On AIX, each newlocale()+freelocale() cycle leaked memory. - newlocale() CPU usage may have been nontrivial. Fail the connection attempt if newlocale() fails. Rearrange ecpg_do_prologue() to validate the connection before its uselocale(). The sort of program that may regress is one running in an environment where newlocale() fails. If that program establishes connections without running SQL statements, it will stop working in response to this change. I'm betting against the importance of such an ECPG use case. Most SQL execution (any using ECPGdo()) has long required newlocale() success, so there's little a connection could do without newlocale(). Back-patch to v10 (all supported versions).

* Harden dsm_impl.c against unexpected EEXIST.Thomas Munro2022-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we trusted the OS not to report EEXIST unless we'd passed in IPC_CREAT | IPC_EXCL or O_CREAT | O_EXCL, as appropriate. Solaris's shm_open() can in fact do that, causing us to crash because we didn't ereport and then we blithely assumed the mapping was successful. Let's treat EEXIST just like any other error, unless we're actually trying to create a new segment. This applies to shm_open(), where this behavior has been seen, and also to the equivalent operations for our sysv and mmap modes just on principle. Based on the underlying reason for the error, namely contention on a lock file managed by Solaris librt for each distinct name, this problem is only likely to happen on 15 and later, because the new shared memory stats system produces shm_open() calls for the same path from potentially large numbers of backends concurrently during authentication. Earlier releases only shared memory segments between a small number of parallel workers under one Gather node. You could probably hit it if you tried hard enough though, and we should have been more defensive in the first place. Therefore, back-patch to all supported releases. Per build farm animal margay.

* Fix visibility check when XID is committed in CLOG but not in procarray.Heikki Linnakangas2022-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TransactionIdIsInProgress had a fast path to return 'false' if the single-item CLOG cache said that the transaction was known to be committed. However, that was wrong, because a transaction is first marked as committed in the CLOG but doesn't become visible to others until it has removed its XID from the proc array. That could lead to an error: ERROR: t_xmin is uncommitted in tuple to be updated or for an UPDATE to go ahead without blocking, before the previous UPDATE on the same row was made visible. The window is usually very short, but synchronous replication makes it much wider, because the wait for synchronous replica happens in that window. Another thing that makes it hard to hit is that it's hard to get such a commit-in-progress transaction into the single item CLOG cache. Normally, if you call TransactionIdIsInProgress on such a transaction, it determines that the XID is in progress without checking the CLOG and without populating the cache. One way to prime the cache is to explicitly call pg_xact_status() on the XID. Another way is to use a lot of subtransactions, so that the subxid cache in the proc array is overflown, making TransactionIdIsInProgress rely on pg_subtrans and CLOG checks. This has been broken ever since it was introduced in 2008, but the race condition is very hard to hit, especially without synchronous replication. There were a couple of reports of the error starting from summer 2021, but no one was able to find the root cause then. TransactionIdIsKnownCompleted() is now unused. In 'master', remove it, but I left it in place in backbranches in case it's used by extensions. Also change pg_xact_status() to check TransactionIdIsInProgress(). Previously, it only checked the CLOG, and returned "committed" before the transaction was actually made visible to other queries. Note that this also means that you cannot use pg_xact_status() to reproduce the bug anymore, even if the code wasn't fixed. Report and analysis by Konstantin Knizhnik.

* Fix SPI's handling of errors during transaction commit.Tom Lane2022-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SPI_commit previously left it up to the caller to recover from any error occurring during commit. Since that's complicated and requires use of low-level xact.c facilities, it's not too surprising that no caller got it right. Let's move the responsibility for cleanup into spi.c. Doing that requires redefining SPI_commit as starting a new transaction, so that it becomes equivalent to SPI_commit_and_chain except that you get default transaction characteristics instead of preserving the prior transaction's characteristics. We can make this pretty transparent API-wise by redefining SPI_start_transaction() as a no-op. Callers that expect to do something in between might be surprised, but available evidence is that no callers do so. Having made that API redefinition, we can fix this mess by having SPI_commit[_and_chain] trap errors and start a new, clean transaction before re-throwing the error. Likewise for SPI_rollback[_and_chain]. Some cleanup is also needed in AtEOXact_SPI, which was nowhere near smart enough to deal with SPI contexts nested inside a committing context. While plperl and pltcl need no changes beyond removing their now-useless SPI_start_transaction() calls, plpython needs some more work because it hadn't gotten the memo about catching commit/rollback errors in the first place. Such an error resulted in longjmp'ing out of the Python interpreter, which leaks Python stack entries at present and is reported to crash Python 3.11 altogether. Add the missing logic to catch such errors and convert them into Python exceptions. This is a back-patch of commit 2e517818f. That's now aged long enough to reduce the concerns about whether it will break something, and we do need to ensure that supported branches will work with Python 3.11.

* Avoid ecpglib core dump with out-of-order operations.Tom Lane2022-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an application executed operations like EXEC SQL PREPARE without having first established a database connection, it could get a core dump instead of the expected clean failure. This occurred because we did "pthread_getspecific(actual_connection_key)" without ever having initialized the TSD key actual_connection_key. The results of that are probably platform-specific, but at least on Linux it often leads to a crash. To fix, add calls to ecpg_pthreads_init() in the code paths that might use actual_connection_key uninitialized. It's harmless (and hopefully inexpensive) to do that more than once.

* Un-break whole-row Vars referencing domain-over-composite types.Tom Lane2022-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit ec62cb0aa, I foolishly replaced ExecEvalWholeRowVar's lookup_rowtype_tupdesc_domain call with just lookup_rowtype_tupdesc, because I didn't see how a domain could be involved there, and there were no regression test cases to jog my memory. But the existing code was correct, so revert that change and add a test case showing why it's necessary. (Note: per comment in struct DatumTupleFields, it is correct to produce an output tuple that's labeled with the base composite type, not the domain; hence just blindly looking through the domain is correct here.)

In the worst case this could lead to SIGSEGV, if the LogicalRepCtx data structure is near the end of shared memory. That seems quite unlikely though (thanks to the ordering of calls in CreateSharedMemoryAndSemaphores) and we've heard no field reports of it. A more likely misbehavior is one row of garbage data in the function's result, but even that is not real likely because of the check that the pid field matches some live backend.

* Don't fail on libpq-generated error reports in ecpg_raise_backend().Tom Lane2022-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An error PGresult generated by libpq itself, such as a report of connection loss, won't have broken-down error fields. ecpg_raise_backend() blithely assumed that PG_DIAG_MESSAGE_PRIMARY would always be present, and would end up passing a NULL string pointer to snprintf when it isn't. That would typically crash before 3779ac62d, and it would fail to provide a useful error report in any case. Best practice is to substitute PQerrorMessage(conn) in such cases, so do that.

* Fix psql's single transaction mode on client-side errors with -c/-f switchesMichael Paquier2022-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | psql --single-transaction is able to handle multiple -c and -f switches in a single transaction since d5563d7d, but this had the surprising behavior of forcing a transaction COMMIT even if psql failed with an error in the client (for example incorrect path given to \copy), which would generate an error, but still commit any changes that were already applied in the backend. This commit makes the behavior more consistent, by enforcing a transaction ROLLBACK if any commands fail, both client-side and backend-side, so as no changes are applied if one error happens in any of them. Some tests are added on HEAD to provide some coverage about all that. Backend-side errors are unreliable as IPC::Run can complain on SIGPIPE if psql quits before reading a query result, but that should work properly in the case where any errors come from psql itself, which is what the original report is about.

* Remove misguided SSL key file ownership check in libpq.Tom Lane2022-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commits a59c79564 et al. tried to sync libpq's SSL key file permissions checks with what we've used for years in the backend. We did not intend to create any new failure cases, but it turns out we did: restricting the key file's ownership breaks cases where the client is allowed to read a key file despite not having the identical UID. In particular a client running as root used to be able to read someone else's key file; and having seen that I suspect that there are other, less-dubious use cases that this restriction breaks on some platforms. We don't really need an ownership check, since if we can read the key file despite its having restricted permissions, it must have the right ownership --- under normal conditions anyway, and the point of this patch is that any additional corner cases where that works should be deemed allowable, as they have been historically. Hence, just drop the ownership check, and rearrange the permissions check to get rid of its faulty assumption that geteuid() can't be zero. (Note that the comparable backend-side code doesn't have to cater for geteuid() == 0, since the server rejects that very early on.) This does have the end result that the permissions safety check used for a root user's private key file is weaker than that used for anyone else's. While odd, root really ought to know what she's doing with file permissions, so I think this is acceptable. Per report from Yogendra Suralkar.

* Show 'AS "?column?"' explicitly when it's important.Tom Lane2022-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ruleutils.c was coded to suppress the AS label for a SELECT output expression if the column name is "?column?", which is the parser's fallback if it can't think of something better. This is fine, and avoids ugly clutter, so long as (1) nothing further up in the parse tree relies on that column name or (2) the same fallback would be assigned when the rule or view definition is reloaded. Unfortunately (2) is far from certain, both because ruleutils.c might print the expression in a different form from how it was originally written and because FigureColname's rules might change in future releases. So we shouldn't rely on that. Detecting exactly whether there is any outer-level use of a SELECT column name would be rather expensive. This patch takes the simpler approach of just passing down a flag indicating whether there *could* be any outer use; for example, the output column names of a SubLink are not referenceable, and we also do not care about the names exposed by the right-hand side of a setop. This is sufficient to suppress unwanted clutter in all but one case in the regression tests. That seems like reasonable evidence that it won't be too much in users' faces, while still fixing the cases we need to fix. Per bug #17486 from Nicolas Lutic. This issue is ancient, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17486-1ad6fd786728b8af@postgresql.org

* Fix control file update done in restartpoints still running after promotionMichael Paquier2022-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a cluster is promoted (aka the control file shows a state different than DB_IN_ARCHIVE_RECOVERY) while CreateRestartPoint() is still processing, this function could miss an update of the control file for "checkPoint" and "checkPointCopy" but still do the recycling and/or removal of the past WAL segments, assuming that the to-be-updated LSN values should be used as reference points for the cleanup. This causes a follow-up restart attempting crash recovery to fail with a PANIC on a missing checkpoint record if the end-of-recovery checkpoint triggered by the promotion did not complete while the cluster abruptly stopped or crashed before the completion of this checkpoint. The PANIC would be caused by the redo LSN referred in the control file as located in a segment already gone, recycled by the previous restartpoint with "checkPoint" out-of-sync in the control file. This commit fixes the update of the control file during restartpoints so as "checkPoint" and "checkPointCopy" are updated even if the cluster has been promoted while a restartpoint is running, to be on par with the set of WAL segments actually recycled in the end of CreateRestartPoint(). 7863ee4 has fixed this problem already on master, but the release timing of the latest point versions did not let me enough time to study and fix that on all the stable branches.

* Improve setup of environment values for commands in MSVC's vcregress.plMichael Paquier2022-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current setup assumes that commands for lz4, zstd and gzip always exist by default if not enforced by a user's environment. However, vcpkg, as one example, installs libraries but no binaries, so this default setup to assume that a command should always be present would cause failures. This commit improves the detection of such external commands as follows: * If a ENV value is available, trust the environment/user and use it. * If a ENV value is not available, check its execution by looking in the current PATH, by launching a simple "$command --version" (that should be portable enough). ** On execution failure, ignore ENV{command}. ** On execution success, set ENV{command} = "$command". Note that this new rule applies to gzip, lz4 and zstd but not tar that we assume will always exist. Those commands are set up in the environment only when using bincheck and taptest. The CI includes all those commands and I have checked that their setup is correct there. I have also tested this change in a MSVC environment where we have none of those commands. While on it, remove the references to lz4 from the documentation and vcregress.pl in ~v13. --with-lz4 has been added in v14~ so there is no point to have this information in these older branches.
