* Guard against possible memory allocation botch in batchmemtuples().Tom Lane2016-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | Negative availMemLessRefund would be problematic. It's not entirely clear whether the case can be hit in the code as it stands, but this seems like good future-proofing in any case. While we're at it, insist that the value be not merely positive but not tiny, so as to avoid doing a lot of repalloc work for little gain.

* Add regression test coverage for non-default timezone abbreviation sets.Tom Lane2016-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | After further reflection about the mess cleaned up in commit 39b691f25, I decided the main bit of test coverage that was still missing was to check that the non-default abbreviation-set files we supply are usable. Add that. Back-patch to supported branches, just because it seems like a good idea to keep this all in sync.
* Remove vestigial references to "zic" in favor of "IANA database".Tom Lane2016-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Commit b2cbced9e instituted a policy of referring to the timezone database as the "IANA timezone database" in our user-facing documentation. Propagate that wording into a couple of places that were still using "zic" to refer to the database, which is definitely not right (zic is the compilation tool, not the data). Back-patch, not because this is very important in itself, but because we routinely cherry-pick updates to the tznames files and I don't want to risk future merge failures.
* Fix corrupt GIN_SEGMENT_ADDITEMS WAL records on big-endian hardware.Tom Lane2016-09-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | computeLeafRecompressWALData() tried to produce a uint16 WAL log field by memcpy'ing the first two bytes of an int-sized variable. That accidentally works on little-endian hardware, but not at all on big-endian. Replay then thinks it's looking at an ADDITEMS action with zero entries, and reads the first two bytes of the first TID therein as the next segno/action, typically leading to "unexpected GIN leaf action" errors during replay. Even if replay failed to crash, the resulting GIN index page would surely be incorrect. To fix, just declare the variable as uint16 instead. Per bug #14295 from Spencer Thomason (much thanks to Spencer for turning his problem into a self-contained test case). This likely also explains a previous report of the same symptom from Bernd Helmle. Back-patch to 9.4 where the problem was introduced (by commit 14d02f0bb).

* Don't require dynamic timezone abbreviations to match underlying time zone.Tom Lane2016-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we threw an error if a dynamic timezone abbreviation did not match any abbreviation recorded in the referenced IANA time zone entry. That seemed like a good consistency check at the time, but it turns out that a number of the abbreviations in the IANA database are things that Olson and crew made up out of whole cloth. Their current policy is to remove such names in favor of using simple numeric offsets. Perhaps unsurprisingly, a lot of these made-up abbreviations have varied in meaning over time, which meant that our commit b2cbced9e and later changes made them into dynamic abbreviations. So with newer IANA database versions that don't mention these abbreviations at all, we fail, as reported in bug #14307 from Neil Anderson. It's worse than just a few unused-in-the-wild abbreviations not working, because the pg_timezone_abbrevs view stops working altogether (since its underlying function tries to compute the whole view result in one call). We considered deleting these abbreviations from our abbreviations list, but the problem with that is that we can't stay ahead of possible future IANA changes. Instead, let's leave the abbreviations list alone, and treat any "orphaned" dynamic abbreviation as just meaning the referenced time zone. It will behave a bit differently than it used to, in that you can't any longer override the zone's standard vs. daylight rule by using the "wrong" abbreviation of a pair, but that's better than failing entirely. (Also, this solution can be interpreted as adding a small new feature, which is that any abbreviation a user wants can be defined as referencing a time zone name.) Back-patch to all supported branches, since this problem affects all of them when using tzdata 2016f or newer.

* Prevent starting a standalone backend with standby_mode on.Tom Lane2016-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This can't really work because standby_mode expects there to be more WAL arriving, which there will not ever be because there's no WAL receiver process to fetch it. Moreover, if standby_mode is on then hot standby might also be turned on, causing even more strangeness because that expects read-only sessions to be executing in parallel. Bernd Helmle reported a case where btree_xlog_delete_get_latestRemovedXid got confused, but rather than band-aiding individual problems it seems best to prevent getting anywhere near this state in the first place. Back-patch to all supported branches. In passing, also fix some omissions of errcodes in other ereport's in readRecoveryCommandFile().

* Fix initdb misbehavior when user mis-enters superuser password.Tom Lane2016-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While testing simple_prompt() revisions, I happened to notice that current initdb behaves rather badly when --pwprompt is specified and the user miskeys the second password. It complains about the mismatch, does "rm -rf" on the data directory, and exits. The problem is that since commit c4a8812cf, there's a standalone backend sitting waiting for commands at that point. It gets unhappy about its datadir having gone away, and spews a PANIC message at the user, which is not nice. (And the shell then adds to the mess with meaningless bleating about a core dump...) We don't really want that sort of thing to happen unless there's an internal failure in initdb, which this surely is not. The best fix seems to be to move the collection of the password earlier, so that it's done essentially as part of argument collection, rather than at the rather ad-hoc time it was done before. Back-patch to 9.6 where the problem was introduced.

* Fix pg_xlogdump so that it handles cross-page XLP_FIRST_IS_CONTRECORD record.Fujii Masao2016-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously pg_xlogdump failed to dump the contents of the WAL file if the file starts with the continuation WAL record which spans more than one pages. Since pg_xlogdump assumed that the continuation record always fits on a page, it could not find the valid WAL record to start reading from in that case. This patch changes pg_xlogdump so that it can handle a continuation WAL record which crosses a page boundary and find the valid record to start reading from. Back-patch to 9.3 where pg_xlogdump was introduced. Author: Pavan Deolasee Reviewed-By: Michael Paquier and Craig Ringer Discussion: CABOikdPsPByMiG6J01DKq6om2+BNkxHTPkOyqHM2a4oYwGKsqQ@mail.gmail.com

* Add macros to make AllocSetContextCreate() calls simpler and safer.Tom Lane2016-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found that half a dozen (nearly 5%) of our AllocSetContextCreate calls had typos in the context-sizing parameters. While none of these led to especially significant problems, they did create minor inefficiencies, and it's now clear that expecting people to copy-and-paste those calls accurately is not a great idea. Let's reduce the risk of future errors by introducing single macros that encapsulate the common use-cases. Three such macros are enough to cover all but two special-purpose contexts; those two calls can be left as-is, I think. While this patch doesn't in itself improve matters for third-party extensions, it doesn't break anything for them either, and they can gradually adopt the simplified notation over time. In passing, change TopMemoryContext to use the default allocation parameters. Formerly it could only be extended 8K at a time. That was probably reasonable when this code was written; but nowadays we create many more contexts than we did then, so that it's not unusual to have a couple hundred K in TopMemoryContext, even without considering various dubious code that sticks other things there. There seems no good reason not to let it use growing blocks like most other contexts. Back-patch to 9.6, mostly because that's still close enough to HEAD that it's easy to do so, and keeping the branches in sync can be expected to avoid some future back-patching pain. The bugs fixed by these changes don't seem to be significant enough to justify fixing them further back. Discussion: <21072.1472321324@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Add a nonlocalized version of the severity field to client error messages.Tom Lane2016-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This has been requested a few times, but the use-case for it was never entirely clear. The reason for adding it now is that transmission of error reports from parallel workers fails when NLS is active, because pq_parse_errornotice() wrongly assumes that the existing severity field is nonlocalized. There are other ways we could have fixed that, but the other options were basically kluges, whereas this way provides something that's at least arguably a useful feature along with the bug fix. Per report from Jakob Egger. Back-patch into 9.6, because otherwise parallel query is essentially unusable in non-English locales. The problem exists in 9.5 as well, but we don't want to risk changing on-the-wire behavior in 9.5 (even though the possibility of new error fields is specifically called out in the protocol document). It may be sufficient to leave the issue unfixed in 9.5, given the very limited usefulness of pq_parse_errornotice in that version. Discussion: <A88E0006-13CB-49C6-95CC-1A77D717213C@eggerapps.at>
* Fix potential memory leakage from HandleParallelMessages().Tom Lane2016-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HandleParallelMessages leaked memory into the caller's context. Since it's called from ProcessInterrupts, there is basically zero certainty as to what CurrentMemoryContext is, which means we could be leaking into long-lived contexts. Over the processing of many worker messages that would grow to be a problem. Things could be even worse than just a leak, if we happened to service the interrupt while ErrorContext is current: elog.c thinks it can reset that on its own whim, possibly yanking storage out from under HandleParallelMessages. Give HandleParallelMessages its own dedicated context instead, which we can reset during each call to ensure there's no accumulation of wasted memory. Discussion: <16610.1472222135@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Put static forward declarations in elog.c back into same order as code.Tom Lane2016-08-26
| | | | | | | | The guiding principle for the last few patches in this area apparently involved throwing darts. Cosmetic only, but back-patch to 9.6 because there is no reason for 9.6 and HEAD to diverge yet in this file.
* Fix assorted small bugs in ThrowErrorData().Tom Lane2016-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Copy the palloc'd strings into the correct context, ie ErrorContext not wherever the source ErrorData is. This would be a large bug, except that it appears that all catchers of thrown errors do either EmitErrorReport or CopyErrorData before doing anything that would cause transient memory contexts to be cleaned up. Still, it's wrong and it will bite somebody someday. Fix failure to copy cursorpos and internalpos. Utter the appropriate incantations involving recursion_depth, so that we'll behave sanely if we get an error inside pstrdup. (In general, the body of this function ought to act like, eg, errdetail().) Per code reading induced by Jakob Egger's report.
* Fix logic for adding "parallel worker" context line to worker errors.Tom Lane2016-08-26
| | | | | | | | | The previous coding here was capable of adding a "parallel worker" context line to errors that were not, in fact, returned from a parallel worker. Instead of using an errcontext callback to add that annotation, just paste it onto the message by hand; this looks uglier but is more reliable. Discussion: <19757.1472151987@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Fix instability in parallel regression tests.Tom Lane2016-08-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f0c7b789a added a test case in case.sql that creates and then drops both an '=' operator and the type it's for. Given the right timing, that can cause a "cache lookup failed for type" failure in concurrent sessions, which see the '=' operator as a potential match for '=' in a query, but then the type is gone by the time they inquire into its properties. It might be nice to make that behavior more robust someday, but as a back-patchable solution, adjust the new test case so that the operator is never visible to other sessions. Like the previous commit, back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: <5983.1471371667@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Fix small query-lifespan memory leak in bulk updates.Tom Lane2016-08-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When there is an identifiable REPLICA IDENTITY index on the target table, heap_update leaks the id_attrs bitmapset. That's not many bytes, but it adds up over enough rows, since the code typically runs in a query-lifespan context. Bug introduced in commit e55704d8b, which did a rather poor job of cloning the existing use-pattern for RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap(). Per bug #14293 from Zhou Digoal. Back-patch to 9.4 where the bug was introduced. Report: <20160824114320.15676.45171@wrigleys.postgresql.org>
* Fix improper repetition of previous results from a hashed aggregate.Tom Lane2016-08-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ExecReScanAgg's check for whether it could re-use a previously calculated hashtable neglected the possibility that the Agg node might reference PARAM_EXEC Params that are not referenced by its input plan node. That's okay if the Params are in upper tlist or qual expressions; but if one appears in aggregate input expressions, then the hashtable contents need to be recomputed when the Param's value changes. To avoid unnecessary performance degradation in the case of a Param that isn't within an aggregate input, add logic to the planner to determine which Params are within aggregate inputs. This requires a new field in struct Agg, but fortunately we never write plans to disk, so this isn't an initdb-forcing change. Per report from Jeevan Chalke. This has been broken since forever, so back-patch to all supported branches. Andrew Gierth, with minor adjustments by me Report: <CAM2+6=VY8ykfLT5Q8vb9B6EbeBk-NGuLbT6seaQ+Fq4zXvrDcA@mail.gmail.com>

* Fix possible sorting error when aborting use of abbreviated keys.Robert Haas2016-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to an error in the abbreviated key abort logic, the most recently processed SortTuple could be incorrectly marked NULL, resulting in an incorrect final sort order. In the worst case, this could result in a corrupt btree index, which would need to be rebuild using REINDEX. However, abbrevation doesn't abort very often, not all data types use it, and only one tuple would end up in the wrong place, so the practical impact of this mistake may be somewhat limited. Report and patch by Peter Geoghegan.
* Guard against parallel-restricted functions in VALUES expressions.Tom Lane2016-08-19
| | | | | | | | | Obvious brain fade in set_rel_consider_parallel(). Noticed it while adjusting the adjacent RTE_FUNCTION case. In 9.6, also make the code look more like what I just did in HEAD by removing the unnecessary function_rte_parallel_ok subroutine (it does nothing that expression_tree_walker wouldn't do).
* reorderbuffer: preserve errno while reporting errorAlvaro Herrera2016-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Clobbering errno during cleanup after an error is an oft-repeated, easy to make mistake. Deal with it here as everywhere else, by saving it aside and restoring after cleanup, before ereport'ing. In passing, add a missing errcode declaration in another ereport() call in the same file, which I noticed while skimming the file looking for similar problems. Backpatch to 9.4, where this code was introduced.
* Add alternative output for ON CONFLICT toast isolation test.Andres Freund2016-08-18

* Update line count totals for psql help displays.Tom Lane2016-08-18
| | | | | | | | As usual, we've been pretty awful about maintaining these counts. They're not all that critical, perhaps, but let's get them right at release time. Also fix 9.5, which I notice is just as bad. It's probably wrong further back, but the lack of --help=foo options before 9.5 makes it too painful to count.
* In plpgsql, don't try to convert int2vector or oidvector to expanded array.Tom Lane2016-08-18

* Fix deletion of speculatively inserted TOAST on conflictAndres Freund2016-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | INSERT .. ON CONFLICT runs a pre-check of the possible conflicting constraints before performing the actual speculative insertion. In case the inserted tuple included TOASTed columns the ON CONFLICT condition would be handled correctly in case the conflict was caught by the pre-check, but if two transactions entered the speculative insertion phase at the same time, one would have to re-try, and the code for aborting a speculative insertion did not handle deleting the speculatively inserted TOAST datums correctly. TOAST deletion would fail with "ERROR: attempted to delete invisible tuple" as we attempted to remove the TOAST tuples using simple_heap_delete which reasoned that the given tuples should not be visible to the command that wrote them. This commit updates the heap_abort_speculative() function which aborts the conflicting tuple to use itself, via toast_delete, for deleting associated TOAST datums. Like before, the inserted toast rows are not marked as being speculative. This commit also adds a isolationtester spec test, exercising the relevant code path. Unfortunately 9.5 cannot handle two waiting sessions, and thus cannot execute this test.

* Properly re-initialize replication slot shared memory upon creation.Andres Freund2016-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Slot creation did not clear all fields upon creation. After start the memory is zeroed, but when a physical replication slot was created in the shared memory of a previously existing logical slot, catalog_xmin would not be cleared. That in turn would prevent vacuum from doing its duties. To fix initialize all the fields.

* Fix assorted places in psql to print version numbers >= 10 in new style.Tom Lane2016-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is somewhat cosmetic, since as long as you know what you are looking at, "10.0" is a serviceable substitute for "10". But there is a potential for confusion between version numbers with minor numbers and those without --- we don't want people asking "why is psql saying 10.0 when my server is 10.2". Therefore, back-patch as far as practical, which turns out to be 9.3. I could have redone the patch to use fprintf(stderr) in place of psql_error(), but it seems more work than is warranted for branches that will be EOL or nearly so by the time v10 comes out. Although only psql seems to contain any code that needs this, I chose to put the support function into fe_utils, since it seems likely we'll need it in other client programs in future. (In 9.3-9.5, use dumputils.c, the predecessor of fe_utils/string_utils.c.) In HEAD, also fix the backend code that whines about loadable-library version mismatch. I don't see much need to back-patch that.

* Fix possible crash due to incorrect allocation context.Robert Haas2016-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit af33039317ddc4a0e38a02e2255c2bf453115fd2 aimed to reduce leakage from tqueue.c, which is good. Unfortunately, by changing the memory context in which all of gather_readnext() executes, it also changed the context in which ExecShutdownGatherWorkers executes, which is not good, because that function eventually causes a call to ExecParallelRetrieveInstrumentation, which proceeds to allocate planstate->worker_instrument in a short-lived context, causing a crash.

* Remove bogus dependencies on NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION.Tom Lane2016-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value, but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed, any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format; which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000. Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code. Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want. In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches. Per gripe from Aravind Kumar. Back-patch to all supported branches, since they all contain the documentation claim about allowed range of NUMERIC (cf commit cabf5d84b). Discussion: <2895.1471195721@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Add SQL-accessible functions for inspecting index AM properties.Tom Lane2016-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per discussion, we should provide such functions to replace the lost ability to discover AM properties by inspecting pg_am (cf commit 65c5fcd35). The added functionality is also meant to displace any code that was looking directly at pg_index.indoption, since we'd rather not believe that the bit meanings in that field are part of any client API contract. As future-proofing, define the SQL API to not assume that properties that are currently AM-wide or index-wide will remain so unless they logically must be; instead, expose them only when inquiring about a specific index or even specific index column. Also provide the ability for an index AM to override the behavior. In passing, document pg_am.amtype, overlooked in commit 473b93287.

* Fix inappropriate printing of never-measured times in EXPLAIN.Tom Lane2016-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, TIMING OFF) would print an elapsed time of zero for a trigger function, because no measurement has been taken but it printed the field anyway. This isn't what EXPLAIN does elsewhere, so suppress it. In the same vein, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) with non-text output format would print buffer I/O timing numbers even when no measurement has been taken because track_io_timing is off. That seems not per policy, either, so change it. Back-patch to 9.2 where these features were introduced. Maksim Milyutin Discussion: <081c0540-ecaa-bd29-3fd2-6358f3b359a9@postgrespro.ru>
* Code cleanup in SyncRepWaitForLSN()Simon Riggs2016-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | Commit 14e8803f1 removed LWLocks when accessing MyProc->syncRepState but didn't clean up the surrounding code and comments. Cleanup and backpatch to 9.5, to keep code similar. Julien Rouhaud, improved by suggestion from Michael Paquier, implemented trivially by myself.
* Fix busted Assert for CREATE MATVIEW ... WITH NO DATA.Tom Lane2016-08-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 874fe3aea changed the command tag returned for CREATE MATVIEW/CREATE TABLE AS ... WITH NO DATA, but missed that there was code in spi.c that expected the command tag to always be "SELECT". Fortunately, the consequence was only an Assert failure, so this oversight should have no impact in production builds. Since this code path was evidently un-exercised, add a regression test. Per report from Shivam Saxena. Back-patch to 9.3, like the previous commit. Michael Paquier Report: <97218716-480B-4527-B5CD-D08D798A0C7B@dresources.com>

* Fix several one-byte buffer over-reads in to_numberPeter Eisentraut2016-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several places in NUM_numpart_from_char(), which is called from the SQL function to_number(text, text), could accidentally read one byte past the end of the input buffer (which comes from the input text datum and is not null-terminated). 1. One leading space character would be skipped, but there was no check that the input was at least one byte long. This does not happen in practice, but for defensiveness, add a check anyway. 2. Commit 4a3a1e2cf apparently accidentally doubled that code that skips one space character (so that two spaces might be skipped), but there was no overflow check before skipping the second byte. Fix by removing that duplicate code. 3. A logic error would allow a one-byte over-read when looking for a trailing sign (S) placeholder. In each case, the extra byte cannot be read out directly, but looking at it might cause a crash. The third item was discovered by Piotr Stefaniak, the first two were found and analyzed by Tom Lane and Peter Eisentraut.
