Failure to do so can lead to constraint violations. This was broken by
commit 1ddc2703a936d03953657f43345460b9242bbed1 on 2010-02-07, so
back-patch to 9.0.

The general design of memory management in Postgres is that intermediate
results computed by an expression are not freed until the end of the tuple
cycle. For expression indexes, ANALYZE has to re-evaluate each expression
for each of its sample rows, and it wasn't bothering to free intermediate
results until the end of processing of that index. This could lead to very
substantial leakage if the intermediate results were large, as in a recent
example from Jakub Ouhrabka. Fix by doing ResetExprContext for each sample
row. This necessitates adding a datumCopy step to ensure that the final
expression value isn't recycled too. Some quick testing suggests that this
change adds at worst about 10% to the time needed to analyze a table with
an expression index; which is annoying, but seems a tolerable price to pay
to avoid unexpected out-of-memory problems.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

Actually making this case work, if the column is used in the trigger's
WHEN condition, will take some new code that probably isn't appropriate
to back-patch. For now, just throw a FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED error rather
than allowing control to reach the "unexpected object" case. Per bug #5688
from Daniel Grace. Back-patch to 9.0 where the possibility of such a
dependency was introduced.

This was broken in 9.0 by careless addition of an early-exit path.

hasn't been set.
The only known case where this can happen is when show_session_authorization
is invoked in an autovacuum process, which is possible if an index function
calls it, as for example in bug #5669 from Andrew Geery. We could perhaps
try to return a sensible value, such as the name of the cluster-owning
superuser; but that seems like much more trouble than the case is worth,
and in any case it could create new possible failure modes. Simply
returning an empty string seems like the most appropriate fix.
Back-patch to all supported versions, even those before autovacuum, just
in case there's another way to provoke this crash.
|
|
These are just cosmetic and don't seem worth back-patching far.
I put them into 9.0 just because it was trivial to do so.

afterTriggerInvokeEvents failed to adjust events->tailfree when truncating
the last chunk of an event list. This could result in the data being
"de-truncated" by afterTriggerRestoreEventList during a subsequent
subtransaction abort. Even that wouldn't kill us, because the re-added data
would just be events marked DONE --- unless the data had been partially
overwritten by new events. Then we might crash, or in any case misbehave
(perhaps fire triggers twice, or fire triggers with the wrong event data).
Per bug #5622 from Thue Janus Kristensen.
Back-patch to 8.4 where the current trigger list representation was introduced.

The implicitly created sequence was created as owned by the current user,
who could be different from the table owner, eg if current user is a
superuser or some member of the table's owning role. This caused sanity
checks in the SEQUENCE OWNED BY code to spit up. Although possibly we
don't need those sanity checks, the safest fix seems to be to make sure
the implicit sequence is assigned the same owner role as the table has.
(We still do all permissions checks as the current user, however.)
Per report from Josh Berkus.
Back-patch to 9.0. The bug goes back to the invention of SEQUENCE OWNED BY
in 8.2, but the fix requires an API change for DefineRelation(), which seems
to have potential for breaking third-party code if done in a minor release.
Given the lack of prior complaints, it's probably not worth fixing in the
stable branches.

Without this patch, constraints inherited by children of a parent
table which itself has multiple inheritance parents can end up with
the wrong coninhcount. After dropping the constraint, the children
end up with a leftover copy of the constraint that is not dumped
and cannot be dropped. There is a similar problem with ALTER TABLE
.. ADD COLUMN, but that looks significantly more difficult to
resolve, so I'm committing this fix separately.
Back-patch to 8.4, which is the first release that has coninhcount.

indexes when the index column type (the opclass opckeytype) is different from
the expression's datatype. When coded, this limitation wasn't worth worrying
about because we had no intelligence to speak of in stats collection for the
datatypes used by such opclasses. However, now that there's non-toy
estimation capability for tsvector queries, it amounts to a bug that ANALYZE
fails to do this.
The fix changes struct VacAttrStats, and therefore constitutes an API break
for custom typanalyze functions. Therefore we can't back-patch it into
released branches, but it was agreed that 9.0 isn't yet frozen hard enough
to make such a change unacceptable. Ergo, back-patch to 9.0 but no further.
The API break had better be mentioned in 9.0 release notes.

assuming that a local char[] array would be aligned on at least a word
boundary. There are architectures on which that is pretty much guaranteed to
NOT be the case ... and those arches also don't like non-aligned memory
accesses, meaning that log_newpage() would crash if it ever got invoked.
Even on Intel-ish machines there's a potential for a large performance penalty
from doing I/O to an inadequately aligned buffer. So palloc it instead.
Backpatch to 8.0 --- 7.4 doesn't have this code.

Backpatch to 8.3, which is as far back as we have opfamilies.
The opclass portion could probably be backpatched to 8.2, when
REASSIGN OWNED was added, but for now I have not done that.

In HEAD, emit a warning when an operator named => is defined.
In both HEAD and the backbranches (except in 8.2, where contrib
modules do not have documentation), document that hstore's text =>
text operator may be removed in a future release, and encourage the
use of the hstore(text, text) function instead. This function only
exists in HEAD (previously, it was called tconvert), so backpatch
it back to 8.2, when hstore was added. Per discussion.

The previous coding failed for OIDs too large to be represented by
a signed integer.
|
|
While my previous attempt seems to always produce valid YAML, it
doesn't always produce YAML that means what it appears to mean,
because of tokens like "0xa" and "true", which without quotes will
be interpreted as integer or Boolean literals. So, instead, just
quote everything that's not known to be a number, as we do for
JSON.
Dean Rasheed, with some changes to the comments by me.
|
|
The previous code failed to quote in many cases where quoting was necessary -
YAML has loads of special characters, including -:[]{},"'|*& - so quote much
more aggressively, and only refrain from quoting things where it seems fairly
clear that it isn't necessary.
Per report from Dean Rasheed.

before it checks whether the expression is immutable. This covers two cases
that were previously handled poorly:
1. SQL function inlining could reduce the apparent volatility of the
expression, allowing an expression to be accepted where it previously would
not have been. As an example, polymorphic functions must be marked with the
worst-case volatility they have for any argument type, but for specific
argument types they might not be so volatile, so indexing could be allowed.
(Since the planner will refuse to inline functions in cases where the
apparent volatility of the expression would increase, this won't break
any cases that were accepted before.)
2. A nominally immutable function could have default arguments that are
volatile expressions. In such a case insertion of the defaults will increase
both the apparent and actual volatility of the expression, so it is
*necessary* to check this before allowing the expression to be indexed.
Back-patch to 8.4, where default arguments were introduced.

rather than returning NULL for some-but-not-all failures as they used to.
Remove now-redundant tests for NULL from call sites.
We had to do something about this because many call sites were failing to
check for NULL; and changing it like this seems a lot more useful and
mistake-proof than adding checks to the call sites without them.

archival or hot standby should be WAL-logged, instead of deducing that from
other options like archive_mode. This replaces recovery_connections GUC in
the primary, where it now has no effect, but it's still used in the standby
to enable/disable hot standby.
Remove the WAL-logging of "unlogged operations", like creating an index
without WAL-logging and fsyncing it at the end. Instead, we keep a copy of
the wal_mode setting and the settings that affect how much shared memory a
hot standby server needs to track master transactions (max_connections,
max_prepared_xacts, max_locks_per_xact) in pg_control. Whenever the settings
change, at server restart, write a WAL record noting the new settings and
update pg_control. This allows us to notice the change in those settings in
the standby at the right moment, they used to be included in checkpoint
records, but that meant that a changed value was not reflected in the
standby until the first checkpoint after the change.
Bump PG_CONTROL_VERSION and XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC. Whack XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC back to
the sequence it used to follow, before hot standby and subsequent patches
changed it to 0x9003.

come from the realistion that HEAP2_CLEAN records don't
always remove user visible data, so conflict processing for
them can be skipped. Confirm validity using Assert checks,
clarify circumstances under which we log heap_cleanup_info
records. Tuning arises from bug fixing of earlier safety
check failures.

There is no other purpose for this message type than to report
the latestRemovedXid of removed tuples, prior to index scans.
Removes overlooked path for sending invalid latestRemovedXid.
Fixes buildfarm failure on centaur.
|
|
vacuum_log_cleanup_info() now generates log records with a valid
latestRemovedXid set in all cases. Also be careful not to zero the
value when we do a round of vacuuming part-way through lazy_scan_heap().
Incidentally, this reduces frequency of conflicts in Hot Standby.

This operates in the same way as other CREATE OR REPLACE commands, ie,
it replaces everything but the ownership and ACL lists of an existing
entry, and requires the caller to have owner privileges for that entry.
While modifying an existing language has some use in development scenarios,
in typical usage all the "replaced" values come from pg_pltemplate so there
will be no actual change in the language definition. The reason for adding
this is mainly to allow programs to ensure that a language exists without
triggering an error if it already does exist.
This commit just adds and documents the new option. A followon patch
will use it to clean up some unpleasant cases in pg_dump and pg_regress.

Add some checks that seem logically necessary, in particular let's make
real sure that HS slave sessions cannot create temp tables. (If they did
they would think that temp tables belonging to the master's session with
the same BackendId were theirs. We *must* not allow myTempNamespace to
become set in a slave session.)
Change setval() and nextval() so that they are only allowed on temp sequences
in a read-only transaction. This seems consistent with what we allow for
table modifications in read-only transactions. Since an HS slave can't have a
temp sequence, this also provides a nicer cure for the setval PANIC reported
by Erik Rijkers.
Make the error messages more uniform, and have them mention the specific
command being complained of. This seems worth the trifling amount of extra
code, since people are likely to see such messages a lot more than before.

NAMEDATALEN, so this code doesn't go nuts with smaller than default
BLCKSZ or larger than default NAMEDATALEN. The standard value is
still exactly 8000.
|
|
In addition, add support for a "payload" string to be passed along with
each notify event.
This implementation should be significantly more efficient than the old one,
and is also more compatible with Hot Standby usage. There is not yet any
facility for HS slaves to receive notifications generated on the master,
although such a thing is possible in future.

The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller
of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists,
GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number
of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will
make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a
future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code
shorter, too.

Move rd_targblock, rd_fsm_nblocks, and rd_vm_nblocks from relcache to the smgr
relation entries, so that they will get reset to InvalidBlockNumber whenever
an smgr-level flush happens. Because we now send smgr invalidation messages
immediately (not at end of transaction) when a relation truncation occurs,
this ensures that other backends will reset their values before they next
access the relation. We no longer need the unreliable assumption that a
VACUUM that's doing a truncation will hold its AccessExclusive lock until
commit --- in fact, we can intentionally release that lock as soon as we've
completed the truncation. This patch therefore reverts (most of) Alvaro's
patch of 2009-11-10, as well as my marginal hacking on it yesterday. We can
also get rid of assorted no-longer-needed relcache flushes, which are far more
expensive than an smgr flush because they kill a lot more state.
In passing this patch fixes smgr_redo's failure to perform visibility-map
truncation, and cleans up some rather dubious assumptions in freespace.c and
visibilitymap.c about when rd_fsm_nblocks and rd_vm_nblocks can be out of
date.

truncating the table and transaction commit. This isn't really making
it safe, but at least there is no good reason to do free space map
cleanup within the risk window. Don't lock out cancel interrupts
until we have to, either.

cluster_rel necessarily builds an all-new toast table, so it's useless to
then go and VACUUM FULL the toast table.
|
|
VACUUM FULL INPLACE), along with a boatload of subsidiary code and complexity.
Per discussion, the use case for this method of vacuuming is no longer large
enough to justify maintaining it; not to mention that we don't wish to invest
the work that would be needed to make it play nicely with Hot Standby.
Aside from the code directly related to old-style VACUUM FULL, this commit
removes support for certain WAL record types that could only be generated
within VACUUM FULL, redirect-pointer removal in heap_page_prune, and
nontransactional generation of cache invalidation sinval messages (the last
being the sticking point for Hot Standby).
We still have to retain all code that copes with finding HEAP_MOVED_OFF and
HEAP_MOVED_IN flag bits on existing tuples. This can't be removed as long
as we want to support in-place update from pre-9.0 databases.

as per my recent proposal.
First, teach IndexBuildHeapScan to not wait for INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuples to commit unless the index build is checking
uniqueness/exclusion constraints. If it isn't, there's no harm in just
indexing the in-doubt tuple.
Second, modify VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER to suppress reverifying
uniqueness/exclusion constraint properties while rebuilding indexes of
the target relation. This is reasonable because these commands aren't
meant to deal with corrupted-data situations. Constraint properties
will still be rechecked when an index is rebuilt by a REINDEX command.
This gets us out of the problem that new-style VACUUM FULL would often
wait for other transactions while holding exclusive lock on a system
catalog, leading to probable deadlock because those other transactions
need to look at the catalogs too. Although the real ultimate cause of
the problem is a debatable choice to release locks early after modifying
system catalogs, changing that choice would require pretty serious
analysis and is not something to be undertaken lightly or on a tight
schedule. The present patch fixes the problem in a fairly reasonable
way and should also improve the speed of VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER a little bit.
