* Extend framework from commit 53be0b1ad to report latch waits.Robert Haas2016-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | WaitLatch, WaitLatchOrSocket, and WaitEventSetWait now taken an additional wait_event_info parameter; legal values are defined in pgstat.h. This makes it possible to uniquely identify every point in the core code where we are waiting for a latch; extensions can pass WAIT_EXTENSION. Because latches were the major wait primitive not previously covered by this patch, it is now possible to see information in pg_stat_activity on a large number of important wait events not previously addressed, such as ClientRead, ClientWrite, and SyncRep. Unfortunately, many of the wait events added by this patch will fail to appear in pg_stat_activity because they're only used in background processes which don't currently appear in pg_stat_activity. We should fix this either by creating a separate view for such information, or else by deciding to include them in pg_stat_activity after all.

* Correct logical decoding restore behaviour for subtransactions.Andres Freund2016-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before initializing iteration over a subtransaction's changes, the last few changes were not spilled to disk. That's correct if the transaction didn't spill to disk, but otherwise... This bug can lead to missed or misorderd subtransaction contents when they were spilled to disk. Move spilling of the remaining in-memory changes to ReorderBufferIterTXNInit(), where it can easily be applied to the top transaction and, if present, subtransactions. Since this code had too many bugs already, noticeably increase test coverage. Fixes: #14319 Reported-By: Huan Ruan Discussion: <20160909012610.20024.58169@wrigleys.postgresql.org> Backport: 9,4-, where logical decoding was added
* Convert contrib/hstore_plpython to not use direct linking to other modules.Tom Lane2016-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, on most platforms, we allowed hstore_plpython's references to hstore and plpython to be unresolved symbols at link time, trusting the dynamic linker to resolve them when the module is loaded. This has a number of problems, the worst being that the dynamic linker does not know where the references come from and can do nothing but fail if those other modules haven't been loaded. We've more or less gotten away with that for the limited use-case of datatype transform modules, but even there, it requires some awkward hacks, most recently commit 83c249200. Instead, let's not treat these references as linker-resolvable at all, but use function pointers that are manually filled in by the module's _PG_init function. There are few enough contact points that this doesn't seem unmaintainable, at least for these use-cases. (Note that the same technique wouldn't work at all for decoupling from libpython itself, but fortunately that's just a standard shared library and can be linked to normally.) This is an initial patch that just converts hstore_plpython. If the buildfarm doesn't find any fatal problems, I'll work on the other transform modules soon. Tom Lane, per an idea of Andres Freund's.

* Show a sensible value in pg_settings.unit for GUC_UNIT_XSEGS variables.Tom Lane2016-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 88e982302 invented GUC_UNIT_XSEGS for min_wal_size and max_wal_size, but neglected to make it display sensibly in pg_settings.unit (by adding a case to the switch in GetConfigOptionByNum). Fix that, and adjust said switch to throw a run-time error the next time somebody forgets. In passing, avoid using a static buffer for the output string --- the rest of this function pstrdup's from a local buffer, and I see no very good reason why the units code should do it differently and less safely. Per report from Otar Shavadze. Back-patch to 9.5 where the new unit type was added. Report: <CAG-jOyA=iNFhN+yB4vfvqh688B7Tr5SArbYcFUAjZi=0Exp-Lg@mail.gmail.com>
* Fix RLS with COPY (col1, col2) FROM tabStephen Frost2016-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempting to COPY a subset of columns from a table with RLS enabled would fail due to an invalid query being constructed (using a single ColumnRef with the list of fields to exact in 'fields', but that's for the different levels of an indirection for a single column, not for specifying multiple columns). Correct by building a ColumnRef and then RestTarget for each column being requested and then adding those to the targetList for the select query. Include regression tests to hopefully catch if this is broken again in the future. Patch-By: Adam Brightwell Reviewed-By: Michael Paquier
* Enforce a specific order for probing library loadability in pg_upgrade.Tom Lane2016-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_upgrade checks whether all the shared libraries used in the old cluster are also available in the new one by issuing LOAD for each library name. Previously, it cared not what order it did the LOADs in. Ideally it should not have to care, but currently the transform modules in contrib fail unless both the language and datatype modules they depend on are loaded first. A backend-side solution for that looks possible but probably not back-patchable, so as a stopgap measure, let's do the LOAD tests in order by library name length. That should fix the problem for reasonably-named transform modules, eg "hstore_plpython" will be loaded after both "hstore" and "plpython". (Yeah, it's a hack.) In a larger sense, having a predictable order of these probes is a good thing, since it will make upgrades predictably work or not work in the face of inter-library dependencies. Also, this patch replaces O(N^2) de-duplication logic with O(N log N) logic, which could matter in installations with very many databases. So I don't foresee reverting this even after we have a proper fix for the library-dependency problem. In passing, improve a couple of SQL queries used here. Per complaint from Andrew Dunstan that pg_upgrade'ing the transform contrib modules failed. Back-patch to 9.5 where transform modules were introduced.

* Change the way pre-reading in external sort's merge phase works.Heikki Linnakangas2016-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't pre-read tuples into SortTuple slots during merge. Instead, use the memory for larger read buffers in logtape.c. We're doing the same number of READTUP() calls either way, but managing the pre-read SortTuple slots is much more complicated. Also, the on-tape representation is more compact than SortTuples, so we can fit more pre-read tuples into the same amount of memory this way. And we have better cache-locality, when we use just a small number of SortTuple slots. Now that we only hold one tuple from each tape in the SortTuple slots, we can greatly simplify the "batch memory" management. We now maintain a small set of fixed-sized slots, to hold the tuples, and fall back to palloc() for larger tuples. We use this method during all merge phases, not just the final merge, and also when randomAccess is requested, and also in the TSS_SORTEDONTAPE case. In other words, it's used whenever we do an external sort. Reviewed by Peter Geoghegan and Claudio Freire. Discussion: <CAM3SWZTpaORV=yQGVCG8Q4axcZ3MvF-05xe39ZvORdU9JcD6hQ@mail.gmail.com>
* Add ALTER EXTENSION ADD/DROP ACCESS METHOD, and use it in pg_upgrade.Tom Lane2016-10-02

* Do ClosePostmasterPorts() earlier in SubPostmasterMain().Tom Lane2016-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In standard Unix builds, postmaster child processes do ClosePostmasterPorts immediately after InitPostmasterChild, that is almost immediately after being spawned. This is important because we don't want children holding open the postmaster's end of the postmaster death watch pipe. However, in EXEC_BACKEND builds, SubPostmasterMain was postponing this responsibility significantly, in order to make it slightly more convenient to pass the right flag value to ClosePostmasterPorts. This is bad, particularly seeing that process_shared_preload_libraries() might invoke nearly-arbitrary code. Rearrange so that we do it as soon as we've fetched the socket FDs via read_backend_variables(). Also move the comment explaining about randomize_va_space to before the call of PGSharedMemoryReAttach, which is where it's relevant. The old placement was appropriate when the reattach happened inside CreateSharedMemoryAndSemaphores, but that was a long time ago. Back-patch to 9.3; the patch doesn't apply cleanly before that, and it doesn't seem worth a lot of effort given that we've had no actual field complaints traceable to this.

* Fix misstatement in comment in Makefile.shlib.Tom Lane2016-10-01
| | | | | | | | | There is no need for "all: all-lib" to be placed before inclusion of Makefile.shlib.

* Fix misplacement of submake-generated-headers prerequisites.Tom Lane2016-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sequence "configure; cd src/pl/plpython; make -j" failed due to trying to compile plpython's .o files before the generated headers finished building. (This is an important real-world case, since it's the typical second step when building both plpython2 and plpython3.) This happens because the submake-generated-headers target is not placed in a way to make it a prerequisite to compiling the .o files. Fix that. Checking other uses of submake-generated-headers, I noted that the one attached to pg_regress was similarly misplaced; but it's actually not needed at all for pg_regress.o, rather regress.o, so move it to be a prerequisite of that. Back-patch to 9.6 where submake-generated-headers was introduced (by commit 548af97fc). It's not immediately clear to me why the previous coding didn't have the same issue; but since we've not had field reports of plpython make failing, leave it alone in the older branches.

* Set log_line_prefix and application name in test driversPeter Eisentraut2016-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | Before pg_regress runs psql, set the application name to the test name. Similarly, set the application name to the test file name in the TAP tests. Also, set a default log_line_prefix that show the application name, as well as the PID and a time stamp. That way, the server log output can be correlated to the test input files, making debugging a bit easier.
* Improve error reporting in pg_upgrade's file copying/linking/rewriting.Tom Lane2016-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous design for this had copyFile(), linkFile(), and rewriteVisibilityMap() returning strerror strings, with the caller producing one-size-fits-all error messages based on that. This made it impossible to produce messages that described the failures with any degree of precision, especially not short-read problems since those don't set errno at all. Since pg_upgrade has no intention of continuing after any error in this area, let's fix this by just letting these functions call pg_fatal() for themselves, making it easy for each point of failure to have a suitable error message. Taking this approach also allows dropping cleanup code that was unnecessary and was often rather sloppy about preserving errno. To not lose relevant info that was reported before, pass in the schema name and table name of the current table so that they can be included in the error reports. An additional problem was the use of getErrorText(), which was flat out wrong for all but a couple of call sites, because it unconditionally did "_dosmaperr(GetLastError())" on Windows. That's only appropriate when reporting an error from a Windows-native API, which only a couple of the callers were actually doing. Thus, even the reported strerror string would be unrelated to the actual failure in many cases on Windows. To fix, get rid of getErrorText() altogether, and just have call sites do strerror(errno) instead, since that's the way all the rest of our frontend programs do it. Add back the _dosmaperr() calls in the two places where that's actually appropriate. In passing, make assorted messages hew more closely to project style guidelines, notably by removing initial capitals in not-complete-sentence primary error messages. (I didn't make any effort to clean up places I didn't have another reason to touch, though.) Per discussion of a report from Thomas Kellerer. Back-patch to 9.6, but no further; given the relative infrequency of reports of problems here, it's not clear it's worth adapting the patch to older branches. Patch by me, but with credit to Alvaro Herrera for spotting the issue with getErrorText's misuse of _dosmaperr(). Discussion: <nsjrbh$8li$1@blaine.gmane.org>
* Fix multiple portability issues in pg_upgrade's rewriteVisibilityMap().Tom Lane2016-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is new code in 9.6, and evidently we missed out testing it as thoroughly as it should have been. Bugs fixed here: 1. Use binary not text mode to open the files on Windows. Before, if the visibility map chanced to contain two bytes that looked like \r\n, Windows' read() would convert that to \n, which both corrupts the map data and causes the file to look shorter than it should. Unless you were *very* unlucky and had an exact multiple of 8K such occurrences in each VM file, this would cause pg_upgrade to report a failure, though with a rather obscure error message. 2. The code for copying rebuilt bytes into the output was simply wrong. It chanced to work okay on little-endian machines but would emit the bytes in the wrong order on big-endian, leading to silent corruption of the visibility map data. 3. The code was careless about alignment of the working buffers. Given all three of an alignment-picky architecture, a compiler that chooses to put the new_vmbuf[] local variable at an odd starting address, and a checksum-enabled database, pg_upgrade would dump core. Point one was reported by Thomas Kellerer, the other two detected by code-reading. Point two is much the nastiest of these issues from an impact standpoint, though fortunately it affects only a minority of users. The Windows issue will definitely bite people, but it seems quite unlikely that there would be undetected corruption from that. In addition, I failed to resist the temptation to do some minor cosmetic adjustments, mostly improving the comments. It would be a good idea to try to improve the error reporting here, but that seems like material for a separate patch. Discussion: <nsjrbh$8li$1@blaine.gmane.org>

* Rationalize format-picture caching logic in formatting.c.Tom Lane2016-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a validity flag to DCHCacheEntry and NUMCacheEntry entries, and do not set it true until after we've parsed the supplied format string. This allows dealing with possible errors while parsing the format without the baroque hack that was there before (which only covered errors within NUMDesc_prepare, anyway). We can get rid of the PG_TRY in NUMDesc_prepare, as well as last_NUMCacheEntry and NUM_cache_remove. (Essentially, this reverts commit ff783fbae in favor of a less fragile solution; the problems with that approach are well illustrated by later hacking such as 55f927a46.) In passing, define the size of these caches as DCH_CACHE_ENTRIES not DCH_CACHE_FIELDS + 1 (whoever thought that was a good definition?) and likewise for the NUM cache. Also const-ify format string parameters where convenient, and merge duplicated cache lookup logic. This is primarily driven by a proposed patch from Artur Zakirov, which introduced some ereport's into format string parsing for the datetime case. He proposed preventing the creation of invalid cache entries by parsing the format string first into a local-variable array, and then copying that to a cache entry. That seemed a bit ugly to me, and anyway randomly different from the way the identical problem had been solved for the numeric case. Let's make the two sets of code more similar not less so. I'm not sure whether we'll adopt the new error conditions Artur proposes, but this patch seems like good code cleanup and future-proofing in any case. The existing code is critically (and undocumented-ly) dependent on no elog being thrown out of several nontrivial functions, which is trouble waiting to happen, though it doesn't seem to be actively broken today.

* Make to_timestamp() and to_date() range-check fields of their input.Tom Lane2016-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically, something like to_date('2009-06-40','YYYY-MM-DD') would return '2009-07-10' because there was no prohibition on out-of-range month or day numbers. This has been widely panned, and it also turns out that Oracle throws an error in such cases. Since these functions are nominally Oracle-compatibility features, let's change that. There's no particular restriction on year (modulo the fact that the scanner may not believe that more than 4 digits are year digits, a matter to be addressed separately if at all). But we now check month, day, hour, minute, second, and fractional-second fields, as well as day-of-year and second-of-day fields if those are used. Currently, no checks are made on ISO-8601-style week numbers or day numbers; it's not very clear what the appropriate rules would be there, and they're probably so little used that it's not worth sweating over.

* Disallow pushing volatile quals past set-returning functions.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pushing an upper-level restriction clause into an unflattened subquery-in-FROM is okay when the subquery contains no SRFs in its targetlist, or when it does but the SRFs are unreferenced by the clause *and the clause is not volatile*. Otherwise, we're changing the number of times the clause is evaluated, which is bad for volatile quals, and possibly changing the result, since a volatile qual might succeed for some SRF output rows and not others despite not referencing any of the changing columns. (Indeed, if the clause is something like "random() > 0.5", the user is probably expecting exactly that behavior.) We had most of these restrictions down, but not the one about the upper clause not being volatile. Fix that, and add a regression test to illustrate the expected behavior. Although this is definitely a bug, it doesn't seem like back-patch material, since possibly some users don't realize that the broken behavior is broken and are relying on what happens now. Also, while the added test is quite cheap in the wake of commit a4c35ea1c, it would be much more expensive (or else messier) in older branches. Per report from Tom van Tilburg.

* Make struct ParallelSlot private within pg_dump/parallel.c.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only field of this struct that other files have any need to touch is the pointer to the TocEntry a worker is working on. (Well, pg_backup_archiver.c is actually looking at workerStatus too, but that can be finessed by specifying that the TocEntry pointer is NULL for a non-busy worker.) Hence, move out the TocEntry pointers to a separate array within struct ParallelState, and then we can make struct ParallelSlot private. I noted the possibility of this previously, but hadn't got round to actually doing it. Discussion: <1188.1464544443@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Rationalize parallel dump/restore's handling of worker cmd/status messages.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing APIs for creating and parsing command and status messages are rather messy; for example, archive-format modules have to provide code for constructing command messages, which is entirely pointless since the code to read them is hard-wired in WaitForCommands() and hence no format-specific variation is actually possible. But there's little foreseeable reason to need format-specific variation anyway. The situation for status messages is no better; at least those are both constructed and parsed by format-specific code, but said code is quite redundant since there's no actual need for format-specific variation. To add insult to injury, the first API involves returning pointers to static buffers, which is bad, while the second involves returning pointers to malloc'd strings, which is safer but randomly inconsistent. Hence, get rid of the MasterStartParallelItem and MasterEndParallelItem APIs, and instead write centralized functions that construct and parse command and status messages. If we ever do need more flexibility, these functions can be the standard implementations of format-specific callback methods, but that's a long way off if it ever happens.

* Redesign parallel dump/restore's wait-for-workers logic.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ListenToWorkers/ReapWorkerStatus APIs were messy and hard to use. Instead, make DispatchJobForTocEntry register a callback function that will take care of state cleanup, doing whatever had been done by the caller of ReapWorkerStatus in the old design. (This callback is essentially just the old mark_work_done function in the restore case, and a trivial test for worker failure in the dump case.) Then we can have ListenToWorkers call the callback immediately on receipt of a status message, and return the worker to WRKR_IDLE state; so the WRKR_FINISHED state goes away. This allows us to design a unified wait-for-worker-messages loop: WaitForWorkers replaces EnsureIdleWorker and EnsureWorkersFinished as well as the mess in restore_toc_entries_parallel. Also, we no longer need the fragile API spec that the caller of DispatchJobForTocEntry is responsible for ensuring there's an idle worker, since DispatchJobForTocEntry can just wait until there is one. In passing, I got rid of the ParallelArgs struct, which was a net negative in terms of notational verboseness, and didn't seem to be providing any noticeable amount of abstraction either.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The result of FD_ISSET() doesn't necessarily fit in a bool, though assigning it to one might accidentally work depending on platform and which socket FD number is being inquired of. Rewrite to test it with if(), rather than making any specific assumption about the result width, to match the way every other such call in PG is written. Don't break out of the input_mask-filling loop after finding the first client that we're waiting for results from. That mostly breaks parallel query management. Also, if we choose not to call select(), be sure to clear out any bits the mask-filling loop might have set, so that we don't accidentally call doCustom for clients we don't know have input. Doing so would likely be harmless, but it's a waste of cycles and doesn't seem to be intended. Make this_usec wide enough. (Yeah, the value would usually fit in an int, but then why are we using int64 everywhere else?) Minor cosmetic adjustments, mostly comment improvements. Problems introduced by commit 12788ae49. The first issue was discovered by buildfarm testing, the others by code review.
* Replace the built-in GIN array opclasses with a single polymorphic opclass.Tom Lane2016-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We had thirty different GIN array opclasses sharing the same operators and support functions. That still didn't cover all the built-in types, nor did it cover arrays of extension-added types. What we want is a single polymorphic opclass for "anyarray". There were two missing features needed to make this possible: 1. We have to be able to declare the index storage type as ANYELEMENT when the opclass is declared to index ANYARRAY. This just takes a few more lines in index_create(). Although this currently seems of use only for GIN, there's no reason to make index_create() restrict it to that. 2. We have to be able to identify the proper GIN compare function for the index storage type. This patch proceeds by making the compare function optional in GIN opclass definitions, and specifying that the default btree comparison function for the index storage type will be looked up when the opclass omits it. Again, that seems pretty generically useful. Since the comparison function lookup is done in initGinState(), making use of the second feature adds an additional cache lookup to GIN index access setup. It seems unlikely that that would be very noticeable given the other costs involved, but maybe at some point we should consider making GinState data persist longer than it now does --- we could keep it in the index relcache entry, perhaps. Rather fortuitously, we don't seem to need to do anything to get this change to play nice with dump/reload or pg_upgrade scenarios: the new opclass definition is automatically selected to replace existing index definitions, and the on-disk data remains compatible. Also, if a user has created a custom opclass definition for a non-builtin type, this doesn't break that, since CREATE INDEX will prefer an exact match to opcintype over a match to ANYARRAY. However, if there's anyone out there with handwritten DDL that explicitly specifies _bool_ops or one of the other replaced opclass names, they'll need to adjust that.

* Refactor script execution state machine in pgbench.Heikki Linnakangas2016-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The doCustom() function had grown into quite a mess. Rewrite it, in a more explicit state machine style, for readability. This also fixes one minor bug: if a script consisted entirely of meta commands, doCustom() never returned to the caller, so progress reports with the -P option were not printed. I don't want to backpatch this refactoring, and the bug is quite insignificant, so only commit this to master, and leave the bug unfixed in back-branches.

* Refer to OS X as "macOS", except for the port name which is still "darwin".Tom Lane2016-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We weren't terribly consistent about whether to call Apple's OS "OS X" or "Mac OS X", and the former is probably confusing to people who aren't Apple users. Now that Apple has rebranded it "macOS", follow their lead to establish a consistent naming pattern. Also, avoid the use of the ancient project name "Darwin", except as the port code name which does not seem desirable to change. (In short, this patch touches documentation and comments, but no actual code.) I didn't touch contrib/start-scripts/osx/, either. I suspect those are obsolete and due for a rewrite, anyway. I dithered about whether to apply this edit to old release notes, but those were responsible for quite a lot of the inconsistencies, so I ended up changing them too. Anyway, Apple's being ahistorical about this, so why shouldn't we be?
* Install TAP test infrastructure so it's available for extension testing.Tom Lane2016-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When configured with --enable-tap-tests, "make install" will now install the Perl support files for TAP testing where PGXS will find them. This allows extensions to rely on $(prove_check) even when being built out-of-tree. Back-patch to 9.4 where we first started to support TAP testing, to reduce the number of cases extension makefiles need to consider.

* Fix incorrect logic for excluding range constructor functions in pg_dump.Tom Lane2016-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Faulty AND/OR nesting in the WHERE clause of getFuncs' SQL query led to dumping range constructor functions if they are part of an extension and we're in binary-upgrade mode. Actually, we don't want to dump them separately even then, since CREATE TYPE AS RANGE will create the range's constructor functions regardless. Per report from Andrew Dunstan. It looks like this mistake was introduced by me, in commit b985d4877, in perhaps-overzealous refactoring to reduce code duplication. I'm suitably embarrassed.

* Remove useless code.Tom Lane2016-09-23

* Don't trust CreateFileMapping() to clear the error code on success.Tom Lane2016-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We must test GetLastError() even when CreateFileMapping() returns a non-null handle. If that value were left over from some previous system call, we might be fooled into thinking the segment already existed. Experimentation on Windows 7 suggests that CreateFileMapping() clears the error code on success, but it is not documented to do so, so let's not rely on that happening in all Windows releases.

* Avoid using PostmasterRandom() for DSM control segment ID.Tom Lane2016-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commits 470d886c3 et al intended to fix the problem that the postmaster selected the same "random" DSM control segment ID on every start. But using PostmasterRandom() for that destroys the intended property that the delay between random_start_time and random_stop_time will be unpredictable. (Said delay is probably already more predictable than we could wish, but that doesn't mean that reducing it by a couple orders of magnitude is OK.) Revert the previous patch and add a comment warning against misuse of PostmasterRandom. Fix the original problem by calling srandom() early in PostmasterMain, using a low-security seed that will later be overwritten by PostmasterRandom. Discussion: <20789.1474390434@sss.pgh.pa.us>
