2022-07-01Add construct_array_builtin, deconstruct_array_builtinPeter Eisentraut
There were many calls to construct_array() and deconstruct_array() for built-in types, for example, when dealing with system catalog columns. These all hardcoded the type attributes necessary to pass to these functions. To simplify this a bit, add construct_array_builtin(), deconstruct_array_builtin() as wrappers that centralize this hardcoded knowledge. This simplifies many call sites and reduces the amount of hardcoded stuff that is spread around.

2022-07-01Harden dsm_impl.c against unexpected EEXIST.Thomas Munro
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. This isn't the end of the story, though, it just changes random crashes into random "File exists" errors; more work needed for a green build farm.

2022-06-30Change some unnecessary MemSet callsPeter Eisentraut
MemSet() with a value other than 0 just falls back to memset(), so the indirection is unnecessary if the value is constant and not 0. Since there is some interest in getting rid of MemSet(), this gets some easy cases out of the way. (There are a few MemSet() calls that I didn't change to maintain the consistency with their surrounding code.)

2022-06-27Fix visibility check when XID is committed in CLOG but not in procarray.Heikki Linnakangas
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. Patch by Simon Riggs, with the pg_xact_status() change added by me.

2022-06-26Fix relptr's encoding of the base address.Thomas Munro
Previously, we encoded both NULL and the first byte at the base address as 0. That confusion led to the assertion in commit e07d4ddc, which failed when min_dynamic_shared_memory was used. Give them distinct encodings, by switching to 1-based offsets for non-NULL pointers. Also improve macro hygiene in passing (missing/misplaced parentheses), and remove open-coded access to the raw offset value from freepage.c/h.

2022-06-26Harden range_table_mutator() against null RangeTblEntry.subquery.Tom Lane
Commit 64919aaab made pull_up_simple_subquery set rte->subquery = NULL after doing the deed, so that we don't waste cycles copying a now-useless subquery tree around. This turns out to create a core dump hazard in range_table_mutator, which supposes that that field is never NULL. Apparently none of our own code invokes query_tree_mutator or range_table_mutator on the top Query after subquery pullup; but it wouldn't be surprising if outside code does, and anyway I'm working on a v16 patch that will need it. We can fix this cleanly by just getting rid of the special-case handling of this field and treating it more like all the rest. I think the special case might be left over from a time when QTW_DONT_COPY_QUERY was the default behavior, but that was eons ago. Thanks to Dean Rasheed for review.

2022-06-25Don't trust signalfd() on illumos.Thomas Munro
Since commit 6a2a70a02, we've used signalfd() to receive latch wakeups when building with WAIT_USE_EPOLL (default for Linux and illumos), and our traditional self-pipe when falling back to WAIT_USE_POLL (default for other Unixes with neither epoll() nor kqueue()). Unexplained hangs and kernel panics have been reported on illumos systems, apparently linked to this use of signalfd(), leading illumos users and build farm members to have to define WAIT_USE_POLL explicitly as a work-around. A bug report exists at https://www.illumos.org/issues/13700 but no fix is available yet. Let's provide a way for illumos users to go back to self-pipes with epoll(), like releases before 14, and choose that by default. No change for Linux users.

In logical replication, we will check if the target table on the subscriber is updatable by comparing the replica identity of the table on the publisher with the table on the subscriber. When the target table is a partitioned table, we only check its replica identity but not for the partition tables.

2022-06-16Revert changes in HOT handling of BRIN indexesTomas Vondra
This reverts commits 5753d4ee32 and fe60b67250 that modified HOT to ignore BRIN indexes. The commit message for 5753d4ee32 claims that: When determining whether an index update may be skipped by using HOT, we can ignore attributes indexed only by BRIN indexes. There are no index pointers to individual tuples in BRIN, and the page range summary will be updated anyway as it relies on visibility info. This is partially incorrect - it's true BRIN indexes don't point to individual tuples, so HOT chains are not an issue, but the visibitlity info is not sufficient to keep the index up to date. This can easily result in corrupted indexes, as demonstrated in the hackers thread. This does not mean relaxing the HOT restrictions for BRIN is a lost cause, but it needs to handle the two aspects (allowing HOT chains and updating the page range summaries) as separate. But that requires a major changes, and it's too late for that in the current dev cycle.

2022-06-08Be more careful about GucSource for internally-driven GUC settings.Tom Lane
The original advice for hard-wired SetConfigOption calls was to use PGC_S_OVERRIDE, particularly for PGC_INTERNAL GUCs. However, that's really overkill for PGC_INTERNAL GUCs, since there is no possibility that we need to override a user-provided setting. Instead use PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT in most places, so that the value will appear with source = 'default' in pg_settings and thereby not be shown by psql's new \dconfig command. The one exception is that when changing in_hot_standby in a hot-standby session, we still use PGC_S_OVERRIDE, because people felt that seeing that in \dconfig would be a good thing. Similarly use PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT for the auto-tune value of wal_buffers (if possible, that is if wal_buffers wasn't explicitly set to -1), and for the typical 2MB value of max_stack_depth. In combination these changes remove four not-very-interesting entries from the typical output of \dconfig, all of which people fingered as "why is that showing up?" in the discussion thread.

2022-06-02Prohibit combining publications with different column lists.Amit Kapila
Currently, we simply combine the column lists when publishing tables on multiple publications and that can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior. Say, if a column is published in any row-filtered publication, then the values for that column are sent to the subscriber even for rows that don't match the row filter, as long as the row matches the row filter for any other publication, even if that other publication doesn't include the column. The main purpose of introducing a column list is to have statically different shapes on publisher and subscriber or hide sensitive column data. In both cases, it doesn't seem to make sense to combine column lists. So, we disallow the cases where the column list is different for the same table when combining publications. It can be later extended to combine the column lists for selective cases where required.

2022-05-31Revert changes to CONCURRENTLY that "sped up" Xmin advanceAlvaro Herrera
This reverts commit d9d076222f5b "VACUUM: ignore indexing operations with CONCURRENTLY". These changes caused indexes created with the CONCURRENTLY option to miss heap tuples that were HOT-updated and HOT-pruned during the index creation. Before these changes, HOT pruning would have been prevented by the Xmin of the transaction creating the index, but because this change was precisely to allow the Xmin to move forward ignoring that backend, now other backends scanning the table can prune them. This is not a problem for VACUUM (which requires a lock that conflicts with a CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY operation), but HOT-prune can definitely occur. In other words, Xmin advancement was sped up, but at the cost of corrupting the resulting index. Regrettably, this means that the new feature in PG14 that RIC/CIC on very large tables no longer force VACUUM to retain very old tuples goes away. We might try to implement it again in a later release, but for now the risk of indexes missing tuples is too high and there's no easy fix. Backpatch to 14, where this change appeared.

2022-05-30Make STRING an unreserved_keyword.Tom Lane
Commit 1a36bc9db (SQL/JSON query functions) introduced STRING as a type_func_name_keyword, thereby breaking applications that use "string" as a table name, column name, function parameter name, etc. That seems like a pretty bad thing, not least because the SQL spec says that STRING is an unreserved keyword. This is easy enough to fix so far as the core grammar is concerned. However, doing so causes some ECPG test cases to fail, specifically those that use "string" as a typedef name. It turns out this is because portions of the ECPG grammar allow type_func_name_keywords but not unreserved_keywords as typedef names. That's pretty horrid, and it's mildly astonishing that we've not heard complaints about it before. We can fix two of those uses trivially, but the ones in the var_type production are less easy. As a stopgap, hard-code STRING as an allowed alternative in var_type. Per report from Alastair McKinley. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]
2022-05-29Fix COPY FROM when database encoding is SQL_ASCII.Heikki Linnakangas
In the codepath when no encoding conversion is required, the check for incomplete character at the end of input incorrectly used server encoding's max character length, instead of the client's. Usually the server and client encodings are the same when we're not performing encoding conversion, but SQL_ASCII is an exception. In the passing, also fix some outdated comments that still talked about the old COPY protocol. It was removed in v14. Per bug #17501 from Vitaly Voronov. Backpatch to v14 where this was introduced.

2022-05-28Revert "Add single-item cache when looking at topmost XID of a subtrans XID"Michael Paquier
This reverts commit 06f5295 as per issues with this approach, both in terms of efficiency impact and stability. First, contrary to the single-item cache for transaction IDs in transam.c, the cache may finish by not be hit for a long time, and without an invalidation mechanism to clear it, it would cause inconsistent results on wraparound for example. Second, the use of SubTransGetTopmostTransaction() for the caching has a limited impact on performance. SubTransGetParent() could have more impact, though the benchmarking of the single-item approach still needs to be proved, particularly under the conditions where SLRU lookups are stressed in parallel with overflowed snapshots (aka more than 64 subxids generated, for example).

2022-05-28Handle NULL for short descriptions of custom GUC variablesMichael Paquier
If a short description is specified as NULL in one of the various DefineCustomXXXVariable() functions available to external modules to define a custom parameter, SHOW ALL would crash. This change teaches SHOW ALL to properly handle NULL short descriptions, as well as any code paths that manipulate it, to gain in flexibility. Note that help_config.c was already able to do that, when describing a set of GUCs for postgres --describe-config.

2022-05-26Teach remove_unused_subquery_outputs about window run conditionsDavid Rowley
9d9c02ccd added code to allow the executor to take shortcuts when quals on monotonic window functions guaranteed that once the qual became false it could never become true again. When possible, baserestrictinfo quals are converted to become these quals, which we call run conditions. Unfortunately, in 9d9c02ccd, I forgot to update remove_unused_subquery_outputs to teach it about these run conditions. This could cause a WindowFunc column which was unused in the target list but referenced by an upper-level WHERE clause to be removed from the subquery when the qual in the WHERE clause was converted into a window run condition. Because of this, the entire WindowClause would be removed from the query resulting in additional rows making it into the resultset when they should have been filtered out by the WHERE clause. Here we fix this by recording which target list items in the subquery have run conditions. That gets passed along to remove_unused_subquery_outputs to tell it not to remove these items from the target list.

2022-05-26Remove misguided SSL key file ownership check in libpq.Tom Lane
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. Like the previous patch, back-patch to all supported branches.

2022-05-26Avoid ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR in oracle_compat.c functions.Tom Lane
repeat() checked for integer overflow during its calculation of the required output space, but it just passed the resulting integer to palloc(). This meant that result sizes between 1GB and 2GB led to ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR, "invalid memory alloc request size" rather than ERRCODE_PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED, "requested length too large". That seems like a bit of a wart, so add an explicit AllocSizeIsValid check to make these error cases uniform. Do likewise in the sibling functions lpad() etc. While we're here, also modernize their overflow checks to use pg_mul_s32_overflow() etc instead of expensive divisions. Per complaint from Japin Li. This is basically cosmetic, so I don't feel a need to back-patch.

2022-05-21Show 'AS "?column?"' explicitly when it's important.Tom Lane
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/[email protected]
2022-05-21Avoid overflow hazard when clamping group counts to "long int".Tom Lane
Several places in the planner tried to clamp a double value to fit in a "long" by doing (long) Min(x, (double) LONG_MAX); This is subtly incorrect, because it casts LONG_MAX to double and potentially back again. If long is 64 bits then the double value is inexact, and the platform might round it up to LONG_MAX+1 resulting in an overflow and an undesirably negative output. While it's not hard to rewrite the expression into a safe form, let's put it into a common function to reduce the risk of someone doing it wrong in future. In principle this is a bug fix, but since the problem could only manifest with group count estimates exceeding 2^63, it seems unlikely that anyone has actually hit this or will do so anytime soon. We're fixing it mainly to satisfy fuzzer-type tools. That being the case, a HEAD-only fix seems sufficient.
