2024-03-15Fix handling of expecteddir in pg_regressDaniel Gustafsson
Commit c855872074b introduced a new parameter to pg_regress to set the directory where to look for expected files, but accidentally only implemented it for when compiling pg_regress for ECPG tests. Fix by adding support for the parameter to the main regression test compilation of pg_regress as well. Backpatch to v16 where --expecteddir was introduced.

2024-02-11Use extensible buffers to assemble command linesPeter Eisentraut
This makes use of StringInfo to assemble command lines, instead of using fixed-size buffers and the (remote) possibility of "command too long" errors. Also makes the code a bit simpler. This covers the test driver programs pg_regress and pg_isolation_regress. Similar to the changes done for pg_rewind in a33e17f210.

2021-03-19Allow configurable LZ4 TOAST compression.Robert Haas
There is now a per-column COMPRESSION option which can be set to pglz (the default, and the only option in up until now) or lz4. Or, if you like, you can set the new default_toast_compression GUC to lz4, and then that will be the default for new table columns for which no value is specified. We don't have lz4 support in the PostgreSQL code, so to use lz4 compression, PostgreSQL must be built --with-lz4. In general, TOAST compression means compression of individual column values, not the whole tuple, and those values can either be compressed inline within the tuple or compressed and then stored externally in the TOAST table, so those properties also apply to this feature. Prior to this commit, a TOAST pointer has two unused bits as part of the va_extsize field, and a compessed datum has two unused bits as part of the va_rawsize field. These bits are unused because the length of a varlena is limited to 1GB; we now use them to indicate the compression type that was used. This means we only have bit space for 2 more built-in compresison types, but we could work around that problem, if necessary, by introducing a new vartag_external value for any further types we end up wanting to add. Hopefully, it won't be too important to offer a wide selection of algorithms here, since each one we add not only takes more coding but also adds a build dependency for every packager. Nevertheless, it seems worth doing at least this much, because LZ4 gets better compression than PGLZ with less CPU usage. It's possible for LZ4-compressed datums to leak into composite type values stored on disk, just as it is for PGLZ. It's also possible for LZ4-compressed attributes to be copied into a different table via SQL commands such as CREATE TABLE AS or INSERT .. SELECT. It would be expensive to force such values to be decompressed, so PostgreSQL has never done so. For the same reasons, we also don't force recompression of already-compressed values even if the target table prefers a different compression method than was used for the source data. These architectural decisions are perhaps arguable but revisiting them is well beyond the scope of what seemed possible to do as part of this project. However, it's relatively cheap to recompress as part of VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER, so this commit adjusts those commands to do so, if the configured compression method of the table happens not to match what was used for some column value stored therein. Dilip Kumar. The original patches on which this work was based were written by Ildus Kurbangaliev, and those were patches were based on even earlier work by Nikita Glukhov, but the design has since changed very substantially, since allow a potentially large number of compression methods that could be added and dropped on a running system proved too problematic given some of the architectural issues mentioned above; the choice of which specific compression method to add first is now different; and a lot of the code has been heavily refactored. More recently, Justin Przyby helped quite a bit with testing and reviewing and this version also includes some code contributions from him.

2021-01-11Allow pg_regress.c wrappers to postprocess test result files.Tom Lane
Add an optional callback to regression_main() that, if provided, is invoked on each test output file before we try to compare it to the expected-result file. The main and isolation test programs don't need this (yet). In pg_regress_ecpg, add a filter that eliminates target-host details from "could not connect" error reports. This filter doesn't do anything as of this commit, but it will be needed by the next one. In the long run we might want to provide some more general, perhaps pattern-based, filtering mechanism for test output. For now, this will solve the immediate problem.

2020-12-30Use setenv() in preference to putenv().Tom Lane
Since at least 2001 we've used putenv() and avoided setenv(), on the grounds that the latter was unportable and not in POSIX. However, POSIX added it that same year, and by now the situation has reversed: setenv() is probably more portable than putenv(), since POSIX now treats the latter as not being a core function. And setenv() has cleaner semantics too. So, let's reverse that old policy. This commit adds a simple src/port/ implementation of setenv() for any stragglers (we have one in the buildfarm, but I'd not be surprised if that code is never used in the field). More importantly, extend win32env.c to also support setenv(). Then, replace usages of putenv() with setenv(), and get rid of some ad-hoc implementations of setenv() wannabees. Also, adjust our src/port/ implementation of unsetenv() to follow the POSIX spec that it returns an error indicator, rather than returning void as per the ancient BSD convention. I don't feel a need to make all the call sites check for errors, but the portability stub ought to match real-world practice.

2019-03-06tableam: introduce table AM infrastructure.Andres Freund
This introduces the concept of table access methods, i.e. CREATE ACCESS METHOD ... TYPE TABLE and CREATE TABLE ... USING (storage-engine). No table access functionality is delegated to table AMs as of this commit, that'll be done in following commits. Subsequent commits will incrementally abstract table access functionality to be routed through table access methods. That change is too large to be reviewed & committed at once, so it'll be done incrementally. Docs will be updated at the end, as adding them incrementally would likely make them less coherent, and definitely is a lot more work, without a lot of benefit. Table access methods are specified similar to index access methods, i.e. pg_am.amhandler returns, as INTERNAL, a pointer to a struct with callbacks. In contrast to index AMs that struct needs to live as long as a backend, typically that's achieved by just returning a pointer to a constant struct. Psql's \d+ now displays a table's access method. That can be disabled with HIDE_TABLEAM=true, which is mainly useful so regression tests can be run against different AMs. It's quite possible that this behaviour still needs to be fine tuned. For now it's not allowed to set a table AM for a partitioned table, as we've not resolved how partitions would inherit that. Disallowing allows us to introduce, if we decide that's the way forward, such a behaviour without a compatibility break. Catversion bumped, to add the heap table AM and references to it.

2018-08-15Clean up assorted misuses of snprintf()'s result value.Tom Lane
Fix a small number of places that were testing the result of snprintf() but doing so incorrectly. The right test for buffer overrun, per C99, is "result >= bufsize" not "result > bufsize". Some places were also checking for failure with "result == -1", but the standard only says that a negative value is delivered on failure. (Note that this only makes these places correct if snprintf() delivers C99-compliant results. But at least now these places are consistent with all the other places where we assume that.) Also, make psql_start_test() and isolation_start_test() check for buffer overrun while constructing their shell commands. There seems like a higher risk of overrun, with more severe consequences, here than there is for the individual file paths that are made elsewhere in the same functions, so this seemed like a worthwhile change. Also fix guc.c's do_serialize() to initialize errno = 0 before calling vsnprintf. In principle, this should be unnecessary because vsnprintf should have set errno if it returns a failure indication ... but the other two places this coding pattern is cribbed from don't assume that, so let's be consistent. These errors are all very old, so back-patch as appropriate. I think that only the shell command overrun cases are even theoretically reachable in practice, but there's not much point in erroneous error checks.

2017-03-09Fix inclusions of postgres_fe.h from .h files.Tom Lane
We have a project policy that every .c file should start by including postgres.h, postgres_fe.h, or c.h as appropriate; and then there is no need for any .h file to explicitly include any of these. Fix a few headers that were violating this policy by including postgres_fe.h.

2016-10-01Set log_line_prefix and application name in test driversPeter Eisentraut
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.

2015-04-23Improve speed of make check-worldPeter Eisentraut
Before, make check-world would create a new temporary installation for each test suite, which is slow and wasteful. Instead, we now create one test installation that is used by all test suites that are part of a make run. The management of the temporary installation is removed from pg_regress and handled in the makefiles. This allows for better control, and unifies the code with that of test suites not run through pg_regress. review and msvc support by Michael Paquier <[email protected]> more review by Fabien Coelho <[email protected]>

2014-05-05Replace SYSTEMQUOTEs with Windows-specific wrapper functions.Heikki Linnakangas
It's easy to forget using SYSTEMQUOTEs when constructing command strings for system() or popen(). Even if we fix all the places missing it now, it is bound to be forgotten again in the future. Introduce wrapper functions that do the the extra quoting for you, and get rid of SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the callers. We previosly used SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the hard-coded command strings, and this doesn't change the behavior of those. But user-supplied commands, like archive_command, restore_command, COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM calls, as well as pgbench's \shell, will now gain an extra pair of quotes. That is desirable, but if you have existing scripts or config files that include an extra pair of quotes, those might need to be adjusted. Reviewed by Amit Kapila and Tom Lane
