2024-07-11Fix possibility of logical decoding partial transaction changes.Masahiko Sawada
When creating and initializing a logical slot, the restart_lsn is set to the latest WAL insertion point (or the latest replay point on standbys). Subsequently, WAL records are decoded from that point to find the start point for extracting changes in the DecodingContextFindStartpoint() function. Since the initial restart_lsn could be in the middle of a transaction, the start point must be a consistent point where we won't see the data for partial transactions. Previously, when not building a full snapshot, serialized snapshots were restored, and the SnapBuild jumps to the consistent state even while finding the start point. Consequently, the slot's restart_lsn and confirmed_flush could be set to the middle of a transaction. This could lead to various unexpected consequences. Specifically, there were reports of logical decoding decoding partial transactions, and assertion failures occurred because only subtransactions were decoded without decoding their top-level transaction until decoding the commit record. To resolve this issue, the changes prevent restoring the serialized snapshot and jumping to the consistent state while finding the start point. On v17 and HEAD, a flag indicating whether snapshot restores should be skipped has been added to the SnapBuild struct, and SNAPBUILD_VERSION has been bumpded. On backbranches, the flag is stored in the LogicalDecodingContext instead, preserving on-disk compatibility. Backpatch to all supported versions.

2024-06-06Make RelationFlushRelation() work without ResourceOwner during abortHeikki Linnakangas
ReorderBufferImmediateInvalidation() executes invalidation messages in an aborted transaction. However, RelationFlushRelation sometimes required a valid resource owner, to temporarily increment the refcount of the relache entry. Commit b8bff07daa worked around that in the main subtransaction abort function, AbortSubTransaction(), but missed this similar case in ReorderBufferImmediateInvalidation(). To fix, introduce a separate function to invalidate a relcache entry. It does the same thing as RelationClearRelation(rebuild==true) does when outside a transaction, but can be called without incrementing the refcount. Add regression test.

2024-05-17Revise GUC names quoting in messages againPeter Eisentraut
After further review, we want to move in the direction of always quoting GUC names in error messages, rather than the previous (PG16) wildly mixed practice or the intermittent (mid-PG17) idea of doing this depending on how possibly confusing the GUC name is. This commit applies appropriate quotes to (almost?) all mentions of GUC names in error messages. It partially supersedes a243569bf65 and 8d9978a7176, which had moved things a bit in the opposite direction but which then were abandoned in a partial state.

2024-02-14Add a slot synchronization function.Amit Kapila
This commit introduces a new SQL function pg_sync_replication_slots() which is used to synchronize the logical replication slots from the primary server to the physical standby so that logical replication can be resumed after a failover or planned switchover. A new 'synced' flag is introduced in pg_replication_slots view, indicating whether the slot has been synchronized from the primary server. On a standby, synced slots cannot be dropped or consumed, and any attempt to perform logical decoding on them will result in an error. The logical replication slots on the primary can be synchronized to the hot standby by using the 'failover' parameter of pg-create-logical-replication-slot(), or by using the 'failover' option of CREATE SUBSCRIPTION during slot creation, and then calling pg_sync_replication_slots() on standby. For the synchronization to work, it is mandatory to have a physical replication slot between the primary and the standby aka 'primary_slot_name' should be configured on the standby, and 'hot_standby_feedback' must be enabled on the standby. It is also necessary to specify a valid 'dbname' in the 'primary_conninfo'. If a logical slot is invalidated on the primary, then that slot on the standby is also invalidated. If a logical slot on the primary is valid but is invalidated on the standby, then that slot is dropped but will be recreated on the standby in the next pg_sync_replication_slots() call provided the slot still exists on the primary server. It is okay to recreate such slots as long as these are not consumable on standby (which is the case currently). This situation may occur due to the following reasons: - The 'max_slot_wal_keep_size' on the standby is insufficient to retain WAL records from the restart_lsn of the slot. - 'primary_slot_name' is temporarily reset to null and the physical slot is removed. The slot synchronization status on the standby can be monitored using the 'synced' column of pg_replication_slots view. A functionality to automatically synchronize slots by a background worker and allow logical walsenders to wait for the physical will be done in subsequent commits.

2023-12-29Make all Perl warnings fatalPeter Eisentraut
There are a lot of Perl scripts in the tree, mostly code generation and TAP tests. Occasionally, these scripts produce warnings. These are probably always mistakes on the developer side (true positives). Typical examples are warnings from genbki.pl or related when you make a mess in the catalog files during development, or warnings from tests when they massage a config file that looks different on different hosts, or mistakes during merges (e.g., duplicate subroutine definitions), or just mistakes that weren't noticed because there is a lot of output in a verbose build. This changes all warnings into fatal errors, by replacing use warnings; by use warnings FATAL => 'all'; in all Perl files.

2023-10-18Add flush option to pg_logical_emit_message()Michael Paquier
Since its introduction, LogLogicalMessage() (via the SQL interface pg_logical_emit_message()) has never included a call to XLogFlush(), causing it to potentially lose messages on a crash when used in non-transactional mode. This has come up to me as a problem while playing with ideas to design a test suite for what has become 039_end_of_wal.pl introduced in bae868caf222 by Thomas Munro, because there are no direct ways to force a WAL flush via SQL. The default is false, to not flush messages and influence existing use-cases where this function could be used. If set to true, the message emitted is flushed before returning back to the caller, making the message durable on crash. This new option has no effect when using pg_logical_emit_message() in transactional mode, as the record's flush is guaranteed by the WAL record generated by the transaction committed. Two queries of test_decoding are tweaked to cover the new code path for the flush. Bump catalog version.

2023-09-27Fix the misuse of origin filter across multiple ↵Amit Kapila
pg_logical_slot_get_changes() calls. The pgoutput module uses a global variable (publish_no_origin) to cache the action for the origin filter, but we didn't reset the flag when shutting down the output plugin, so subsequent retries may access the previous publish_no_origin value. We fix this by storing the flag in the output plugin's private data. Additionally, the patch removes the currently unused origin string from the structure. For the back branch, to avoid changing the exposed structure, we eliminated the global variable and instead directly used the origin string for change filtering.

2023-08-25Catalog not-null constraintsAlvaro Herrera
We now create contype='n' pg_constraint rows for not-null constraints. We propagate these constraints to other tables during operations such as adding inheritance relationships, creating and attaching partitions and creating tables LIKE other tables. We also spawn not-null constraints for inheritance child tables when their parents have primary keys. These related constraints mostly follow the well-known rules of conislocal and coninhcount that we have for CHECK constraints, with some adaptations: for example, as opposed to CHECK constraints, we don't match not-null ones by name when descending a hierarchy to alter it, instead matching by column name that they apply to. This means we don't require the constraint names to be identical across a hierarchy. For now, we omit them for system catalogs. Maybe this is worth reconsidering. We don't support NOT VALID nor DEFERRABLE clauses either; these can be added as separate features later (this patch is already large and complicated enough.) psql shows these constraints in \d+. pg_dump requires some ad-hoc hacks, particularly when dumping a primary key. We now create one "throwaway" not-null constraint for each column in the PK together with the CREATE TABLE command, and once the PK is created, all those throwaway constraints are removed. This avoids having to check each tuple for nullness when the dump restores the primary key creation. pg_upgrading from an older release requires a somewhat brittle procedure to create a constraint state that matches what would be created if the database were being created fresh in Postgres 17. I have tested all the scenarios I could think of, and it works correctly as far as I can tell, but I could have neglected weird cases. This patch has been very long in the making. The first patch was written by Bernd Helmle in 2010 to add a new pg_constraint.contype value ('n'), which I (Álvaro) then hijacked in 2011 and 2012, until that one was killed by the realization that we ought to use contype='c' instead: manufactured CHECK constraints. However, later SQL standard development, as well as nonobvious emergent properties of that design (mostly, failure to distinguish them from "normal" CHECK constraints as well as the performance implication of having to test the CHECK expression) led us to reconsider this choice, so now the current implementation uses contype='n' again. During Postgres 16 this had already been introduced by commit e056c557aef4, but there were some problems mainly with the pg_upgrade procedure that couldn't be fixed in reasonable time, so it was reverted. In 2016 Vitaly Burovoy also worked on this feature[1] but found no consensus for his proposed approach, which was claimed to be closer to the letter of the standard, requiring an additional pg_attribute column to track the OID of the not-null constraint for that column.

2022-10-20Fix assertion failures while processing NEW_CID record in logical decoding.Amit Kapila
When the logical decoding restarts from NEW_CID, since there is no association between the top transaction and its subtransaction, both are created as top transactions and have the same LSN. This caused the assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder(). This patch skips the assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we start decoding the contents of the transaction, specifically start_decoding_at LSN in SnapBuild. This is okay because we don't guarantee to make the association between top transaction and subtransaction until we try to decode the actual contents of transaction. The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN should have been checked before the restart. The other assertion failure is due to the reason that we forgot to track that we have considered top-level transaction id in the list of catalog changing transactions that were committed when one of its subtransactions is marked as containing catalog change.

2022-09-21meson: Add initial version of meson based build systemAndres Freund
Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system. After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects. We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of the new build system and mature it in tree. This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but building slower). Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only extensions) are not yet addressed. When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism. The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported versions build with meson.

2022-08-11Fix catalog lookup with the wrong snapshot during logical decoding.Amit Kapila
Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart, if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong snapshot. To fix this problem, this change adds the list of transaction IDs and sub-transaction IDs, that have modified catalogs and are running during snapshot serialization, to the serialized snapshot. After restart or otherwise, when we restore from such a serialized snapshot, the corresponding list is restored in memory. Now, when decoding a COMMIT record, we check both the list and the ReorderBuffer to see if the transaction has modified catalogs. Since this adds additional information to the serialized snapshot, we cannot backpatch it. For back branches, we took another approach. We remember the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. This doesn't require any file format changes but the transaction will end up being added to the snapshot even if it has only relcache invalidations. But that won't be a problem since we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs. This commit bumps SNAPBUILD_VERSION because of a change in SnapBuild.

2022-07-21Allow users to skip logical replication of data having origin.Amit Kapila
This patch adds a new SUBSCRIPTION parameter "origin". It specifies whether the subscription will request the publisher to only send changes that don't have an origin or send changes regardless of origin. Setting it to "none" means that the subscription will request the publisher to only send changes that have no origin associated. Setting it to "any" means that the publisher sends changes regardless of their origin. The default is "any". Usage: CREATE SUBSCRIPTION sub1 CONNECTION 'dbname=postgres port=9999' PUBLICATION pub1 WITH (origin = none); This can be used to avoid loops (infinite replication of the same data) among replication nodes. This feature allows filtering only the replication data originating from WAL but for initial sync (initial copy of table data) we don't have such a facility as we can only distinguish the data based on origin from WAL. As a follow-up patch, we are planning to forbid the initial sync if the origin is specified as none and we notice that the publication tables were also replicated from other publishers to avoid duplicate data or loops. We forbid to allow creating origin with names 'none' and 'any' to avoid confusion with the same name options.

2022-04-06pgstat: add pg_stat_force_next_flush(), use it to simplify tests.Andres Freund
In the stats collector days it was hard to write tests for the stats system, because fundamentally delivery of stats messages over UDP was not synchronous (nor guaranteed). Now we easily can force pending stats updates to be flushed synchronously. This moves stats.sql into a parallel group, there isn't a reason for it to run in isolation anymore. And it may shake out some bugs. Bumps catversion. Author: Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de> Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20220303021600.hs34ghqcw6zcokdh@alap3.anarazel.de

2022-03-28Add support for MERGE SQL commandAlvaro Herrera
MERGE performs actions that modify rows in the target table using a source table or query. MERGE provides a single SQL statement that can conditionally INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE rows -- a task that would otherwise require multiple PL statements. For example, MERGE INTO target AS t USING source AS s ON t.tid = s.sid WHEN MATCHED AND t.balance > s.delta THEN UPDATE SET balance = t.balance - s.delta WHEN MATCHED THEN DELETE WHEN NOT MATCHED AND s.delta > 0 THEN INSERT VALUES (s.sid, s.delta) WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN DO NOTHING; MERGE works with regular tables, partitioned tables and inheritance hierarchies, including column and row security enforcement, as well as support for row and statement triggers and transition tables therein. MERGE is optimized for OLTP and is parameterizable, though also useful for large scale ETL/ELT. MERGE is not intended to be used in preference to existing single SQL commands for INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE since there is some overhead. MERGE can be used from PL/pgSQL. MERGE does not support targetting updatable views or foreign tables, and RETURNING clauses are not allowed either. These limitations are likely fixable with sufficient effort. Rewrite rules are also not supported, but it's not clear that we'd want to support them.

2022-03-08Stabilize test_decoding touching with sequencesTomas Vondra
Some of the test_decoding regression tests are unstable due to modifying a sequence. The first increment of a sequence after a checkpoint is always logged (and thus decoded), which makes the output unpredictable. The runs are usually much shorter than a checkpoint internal, so these failures are rare, but we've seen a couple of them on animals that are either slow or are running with valgrind/clobber cache/... Fixed by skipping sequence decoding in most tests, with the exception of the test aimed at testing decoding of sequences.

2022-02-18Rearrange libpq's error reporting to avoid duplicated error text.Tom Lane
Since commit ffa2e4670, libpq accumulates text in conn->errorMessage across a whole query cycle. In some situations, we may report more than one error event within a cycle: the easiest case to reach is where we report a FATAL error message from the server, and then a bit later we detect loss of connection. Since, historically, each error PGresult bears the entire content of conn->errorMessage, this results in duplication of the FATAL message in any output that concatenates the contents of the PGresults. Accumulation in errorMessage still seems like a good idea, especially in view of the number of places that did ad-hoc error concatenation before ffa2e4670. So to fix this, let's track how much of conn->errorMessage has been read out into error PGresults, and only include new text in later PGresults. The tricky part of that is to be sure that we never discard an error PGresult once made (else we'd risk dropping some text, a problem much worse than duplication). While libpq formerly did that in some code paths, a little bit of rearrangement lets us postpone making an error PGresult at all until we are about to return it. A side benefit of that postponement is that it now becomes practical to return a dummy static PGresult in cases where we hit out-of-memory while trying to manufacture an error PGresult. This eliminates the admittedly-very-rare case where we'd return NULL from PQgetResult, indicating successful query completion, even though what actually happened was an OOM failure.

2022-02-14WAL log unchanged toasted replica identity key attributes.Amit Kapila
Currently, during UPDATE, the unchanged replica identity key attributes are not logged separately because they are getting logged as part of the new tuple. But if they are stored externally then the untoasted values are not getting logged as part of the new tuple and logical replication won't be able to replicate such UPDATEs. So we need to log such attributes as part of the old_key_tuple during UPDATE.

2022-02-12Fix skip-empty-xacts with sequences in test_decodingTomas Vondra
Regression tests need to use skip-empty-xacts = false, because there might be accidental concurrent activity (like autovacuum), particularly on slow machines. The tests added by 80901b3291 failed to do that in a couple places, triggering occasional failures on buildfarm. Fixing the tests however uncovered a bug in the code, because sequence callbacks did not handle skip-empty-xacts properly. For trasactional increments we need to check/update the xact_wrote_changes flag, and emit the BEGIN if it's the first change in the transaction.
