2019-07-23Check that partitions are not in use when dropping constraintsAlvaro Herrera
If the user creates a deferred constraint in a partition, and in a transaction they cause the constraint's trigger execution to be deferred until commit time *and* drop the constraint, then when commit time comes the queued trigger will fail to run because the trigger object will have been dropped. This is explained because when a constraint gets dropped in a partitioned table, the recursion to drop the ones in partitions is done by the dependency mechanism, not by ALTER TABLE traversing the recursion tree as in all other cases. In the non-partitioned case, this problem is avoided by checking that the table is not "in use" by alter-table; other alter-table subcommands that recurse to partitions do that check for each partition. But the dependency mechanism doesn't have a way to do that. Fix the problem by applying the same check to all partitions during ALTER TABLE's "prep" phase, which correctly raises the necessary error.

2019-07-22Install dependencies to prevent dropping partition key columns.Tom Lane
The logic in ATExecDropColumn that rejects dropping partition key columns is quite an inadequate defense, because it doesn't execute in cases where a column needs to be dropped due to cascade from something that only the column, not the whole partitioned table, depends on. That leaves us with a badly broken partitioned table; even an attempt to load its relcache entry will fail. We really need to have explicit pg_depend entries that show that the column can't be dropped without dropping the whole table. Hence, add those entries. In v12 and HEAD, bump catversion to ensure that partitioned tables will have such entries. We can't do that in released branches of course, so in v10 and v11 this patch affords protection only to partitioned tables created after the patch is installed. Given the lack of field complaints (this bug was found by fuzz-testing not by end users), that's probably good enough. In passing, fix ATExecDropColumn and ATPrepAlterColumnType messages to be more specific about which partition key column they're complaining about. Per report from Manuel Rigger. Back-patch to v10 where partitioned tables were added.

2019-07-20Use column collation for extended statisticsTomas Vondra
The current extended statistics code was a bit confused which collation to use. When building the statistics, the collations defined as default for the data types were used (since commit 5e0928005). The MCV code was however using the column collations for MCV serialization, and then DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID when computing estimates. So overall the code was using all three possible options, inconsistently. This uses the column colation everywhere - this makes it consistent with what 5e0928005 did for regular stats. We however do not track the collations in a catalog, because we can derive them from column-level information. This may need to change in the future, e.g. after allowing statistics on expressions.

2019-07-16Fix thinko in construction of old_conpfeqop list.Tom Lane
This should lappend the OIDs, not lcons them; the existing code produced a list in reversed order. This is harmless for single-key FKs or FKs where all the key columns are of the same type, which probably explains how it went unnoticed. But if those conditions are not met, ATAddForeignKeyConstraint would make the wrong decision about whether an existing FK needs to be revalidated. I think it would almost always err in the safe direction by revalidating a constraint that didn't need it. You could imagine scenarios where the pfeqop check was fooled by swapping the types of two FK columns in one ALTER TABLE, but that case would probably be rejected by other tests, so it might be impossible to get to the worst-case scenario where an FK should be revalidated and isn't. (And even then, it's likely to be fine, unless there are weird inconsistencies in the equality behavior of the replacement types.) However, this is a performance bug at least. Noted while poking around to see whether lcons calls could be converted to lappend. This bug is old, dating to commit cb3a7c2b9, so back-patch to all supported branches.
2019-07-10Fix missing calls to table_finish_bulk_insert during COPY, take 2David Rowley
86b85044e abstracted calls to heap functions in COPY FROM to support a generic table AM. However, when performing a copy into a partitioned table, this commit neglected to call table_finish_bulk_insert for each partition. Before 86b85044e, when we always called the heap functions, there was no need to call heapam_finish_bulk_insert for partitions since it only did any work when performing a copy without WAL. For partitioned tables, this was unsupported anyway, so there was no issue. With pluggable storage, we can't make any assumptions about what the table AM might want to do in its equivalent function, so we'd better ensure we always call table_finish_bulk_insert each partition that's received a row. For now, we make the table_finish_bulk_insert call whenever we evict a CopyMultiInsertBuffer out of the CopyMultiInsertInfo. This does mean that it's possible that we call table_finish_bulk_insert multiple times per partition, which is not a problem other than being an inefficiency. Improving this requires a more invasive patch, so let's leave that for another day. This also changes things so that we no longer needlessly call table_finish_bulk_insert when performing a COPY FROM for a non-partitioned table when not using multi-inserts.

2019-06-29Add an enforcement mechanism for global object names in regression tests.Tom Lane
In commit 18555b132 we tentatively established a rule that regression tests should use names containing "regression" for databases, and names starting with "regress_" for all other globally-visible object names, so as to circumscribe the side-effects that "make installcheck" could have on an existing installation. This commit adds a simple enforcement mechanism for that rule: if the code is compiled with ENFORCE_REGRESSION_TEST_NAME_RESTRICTIONS defined, it will emit a warning (not an error) whenever a database, role, tablespace, subscription, or replication origin name is created that doesn't obey the rule. Running one or more buildfarm members with that symbol defined should be enough to catch new violations, at least in the regular regression tests. Most TAP tests wouldn't notice such warnings, but that's actually fine because TAP tests don't execute against an existing server anyway. Since it's already the case that running src/test/modules/ tests in installcheck mode is deprecated, we can use that as a home for tests that seem unsafe to run against an existing server, such as tests that might have side-effects on existing roles. Document that (though this commit doesn't in itself make it any less safe than before). Update regress.sgml to define these restrictions more clearly, and to clean up assorted lack-of-up-to-date-ness in its descriptions of the available regression tests.

2019-06-26Fix partitioned index creation with foreign partitionsAlvaro Herrera
When a partitioned tables contains foreign tables as partitions, it is not possible to implement unique or primary key indexes -- but when regular indexes are created, there is no reason to do anything other than ignoring such partitions. We were raising errors upon encountering the foreign partitions, which is unfriendly and doesn't protect against any actual problems. Relax this restriction so that index creation is allowed on partitioned tables containing foreign partitions, becoming a no-op on them. (We may later want to redefine this so that the FDW is told to create the indexes on the foreign side.) This applies to CREATE INDEX, as well as ALTER TABLE / ATTACH PARTITION and CREATE TABLE / PARTITION OF. Backpatch to 11, where indexes on partitioned tables were introduced.

2019-06-24Further fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE's handling of indexes and index constraints.Tom Lane
This patch reverts all the code changes of commit e76de8861, which turns out to have been seriously misguided. We can't wait till later to compute the definition string for an index; we must capture that before applying the data type change for any column it depends on, else ruleutils.c will deliverr wrong/misleading results. (This fine point was documented nowhere, of course.) I'd also managed to forget that ATExecAlterColumnType executes once per ALTER COLUMN TYPE clause, not once per statement; which resulted in the code being basically completely broken for any case in which multiple ALTER COLUMN TYPE clauses are applied to a table having non-constraint indexes that must be rebuilt. Through very bad luck, none of the existing test cases nor the ones added by e76de8861 caught that, but of course it was soon found in the field. The previous patch also had an implicit assumption that if a constraint's index had a dependency on a table column, so would the constraint --- but that isn't actually true, so it didn't fix such cases. Instead of trying to delete unneeded index dependencies later, do the is-there-a-constraint lookup immediately on seeing an index dependency, and switch to remembering the constraint if so. In the unusual case of multiple column dependencies for a constraint index, this will result in duplicate constraint lookups, but that's not that horrible compared to all the other work that happens here. Besides, such cases did not work at all before, so it's hard to argue that they're performance-critical for anyone. Per bug #15865 from Keith Fiske. As before, back-patch to all supported branches.

2019-06-16Rework the pg_statistic_ext catalogTomas Vondra
Since extended statistic got introduced in PostgreSQL 10, there was a single catalog pg_statistic_ext storing both the definitions and built statistic. That's however problematic when a user is supposed to have access only to the definitions, but not to user data. Consider for example pg_dump on a database with RLS enabled - if the pg_statistic_ext catalog respects RLS (which it should, if it contains user data), pg_dump would not see any records and the result would not define any extended statistics. That would be a surprising behavior. Until now this was not a pressing issue, because the existing types of extended statistic (functional dependencies and ndistinct coefficients) do not include any user data directly. This changed with introduction of MCV lists, which do include most common combinations of values. The easiest way to fix this is to split the pg_statistic_ext catalog into two - one for definitions, one for the built statistic values. The new catalog is called pg_statistic_ext_data, and we're maintaining a 1:1 relationship with the old catalog - either there are matching records in both catalogs, or neither of them. Bumped CATVERSION due to changing system catalog definitions.

2019-06-12Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE failure with a partial exclusion constraint.Tom Lane
ATExecAlterColumnType failed to consider the possibility that an index that needs to be rebuilt might be a child of a constraint that needs to be rebuilt. We missed this so far because usually a constraint index doesn't have a direct dependency on its table, just on the constraint object. But if there's a WHERE clause, then dependency analysis of the WHERE clause results in direct dependencies on the column(s) mentioned in WHERE. This led to trying to drop and rebuild both the constraint and its underlying index. In v11/HEAD, we successfully drop both the index and the constraint, and then try to rebuild both, and of course the second rebuild hits a duplicate-index-name problem. Before v11, it fails with obscure messages about a missing relation OID, due to trying to drop the index twice. This is essentially the same kind of problem noted in commit 20bef2c31: the possible dependency linkages are broader than what ATExecAlterColumnType was designed for. It was probably OK when written, but it's certainly been broken since the introduction of partial exclusion constraints. Fix by adding an explicit check for whether any of the indexes-to-be-rebuilt belong to any of the constraints-to-be-rebuilt, and ignoring any that do. In passing, fix a latent bug introduced by commit 8b08f7d48: in get_constraint_index() we must "continue" not "break" when rejecting a relation of a wrong relkind. This is harmless today because we don't expect that code path to be taken anyway; but if there ever were any relations to be ignored, the existing coding would have an extremely undesirable dependency on the order of pg_depend entries. Also adjust a couple of obsolete comments. Per bug #15835 from Yaroslav Schekin. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15835-32d9b7a76c06a7a9@postgresql.org

2019-05-08Clean up the behavior and API of catalog.c's is-catalog-relation tests.Tom Lane
The right way for IsCatalogRelation/Class to behave is to return true for OIDs less than FirstBootstrapObjectId (not FirstNormalObjectId), without any of the ad-hoc fooling around with schema membership. The previous code was wrong because (1) it claimed that information_schema tables were not catalog relations but their toast tables were, which is silly; and (2) if you dropped and recreated information_schema, which is a supported operation, the behavior changed. That's even sillier. With this definition, "catalog relations" are exactly the ones traceable to the postgres.bki data, which seems like what we want. With this simplification, we don't actually need access to the pg_class tuple to identify a catalog relation; we only need its OID. Hence, replace IsCatalogClass with "IsCatalogRelationOid(oid)". But keep IsCatalogRelation as a convenience function. This allows fixing some arguably-wrong semantics in contrib/sepgsql and ReindexRelationConcurrently, which were using an IsSystemNamespace test where what they really should be using is IsCatalogRelationOid. The previous coding failed to protect toast tables of system catalogs, and also was not on board with the general principle that user-created tables do not become catalogs just by virtue of being renamed into pg_catalog. We can also get rid of a messy hack in ReindexMultipleTables. While we're at it, also rename IsSystemNamespace to IsCatalogNamespace, because the previous name invited confusion with the more expansive semantics used by IsSystemRelation/Class. Also improve the comments in catalog.c. There are a few remaining places in replication-related code that are special-casing OIDs below FirstNormalObjectId. I'm inclined to think those are wrong too, and if there should be any special case it should just extend to FirstBootstrapObjectId. But first we need to debate whether a FOR ALL TABLES publication should include information_schema.

2019-05-08Fix table lock levels for REINDEX INDEX CONCURRENTLYPeter Eisentraut
REINDEX CONCURRENTLY locks tables with ShareUpdateExclusiveLock rather than the ShareLock used by a plain REINDEX. However, RangeVarCallbackForReindexIndex() was not updated for that and still used the ShareLock only. This would lead to lock upgrades later, leading to possible deadlocks.

2019-05-08Add TRUNCATE parameter to VACUUM.Fujii Masao
This commit adds new parameter to VACUUM command, TRUNCATE, which specifies that VACUUM should attempt to truncate off any empty pages at the end of the table and allow the disk space for the truncated pages to be returned to the operating system. This parameter, if specified, overrides the vacuum_truncate reloption. If neither the reloption nor the VACUUM option is used, the default is true, as before.

2019-05-05Fix style violations in syscache lookups.Tom Lane
Project style is to check the success of SearchSysCacheN and friends by applying HeapTupleIsValid to the result. A tiny minority of calls creatively did it differently. Bring them into line with the rest. This is just cosmetic, since HeapTupleIsValid is indeed just a null check at the moment ... but that may not be true forever, and in any case it puts a mental burden on readers who may wonder why these call sites are not like the rest. Back-patch to v11 just to keep the branches in sync. (The bulk of these errors seem to have originated in v11 or v12, though a few are old.) Per searching to see if anyplace else had made the same error repaired in 62148c352.
2019-05-05Add check for syscache lookup failure in update_relispartition().Tom Lane
Omitted in commit 05b38c7e6 (though it looks like the original blame belongs to 9e9befac4). A failure is admittedly unlikely, but if it did happen, SIGSEGV is not the approved method of reporting it. Per Coverity. Back-patch to v11 where the broken code originated.

2019-04-29Fix several recently introduced issues around handling new relation forks.Andres Freund
Most of these stem from d25f519107 "tableam: relation creation, VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER, SET TABLESPACE.". 1) To pass data to the relation_set_new_filenode() RelationSetNewRelfilenode() was made to update RelationData.rd_rel directly. That's not OK however, as it makes the relcache entries temporarily inconsistent. Which among other scenarios is a problem if a REINDEX targets an index on pg_class - the CatalogTupleUpdate() in RelationSetNewRelfilenode(). Presumably that was introduced because other places in the code do so - while those aren't "good practice" they don't appear to be actively buggy (e.g. because system tables may not be targeted). I (Andres) should have caught this while reviewing and signficantly evolving the code in that commit, mea culpa. Fix that by instead passing in the new RelFileNode as separate argument to relation_set_new_filenode() and rely on the relcache to update the catalog entry. Also revert that the RelationMapUpdateMap() call was changed to immediate, and undo some other more unnecessary changes. 2) Document that the relation_set_new_filenode cannot rely on the whole relcache entry to be valid. It might be worthwhile to refactor the code to never have to rely on that, but given the way heap_create() is currently coded, that'd be a large change. 3) ATExecSetTableSpace() shouldn't do FlushRelationBuffers() itself. A table AM might not use shared buffers at all. Move to index_copy_data() and heapam_relation_copy_data(). 4) heapam_relation_set_new_filenode() previously sometimes accessed rel->rd_rel->relpersistence rather than the `persistence` argument. Code movement mistake. 5) Previously heapam_relation_set_new_filenode() re-opened the smgr relation to create the init for, if necesary. Instead have RelationCreateStorage() return the SMgrRelation and use it to create the init fork. 6) Add a note about the danger of modifying the relcache directly to ATExecSetTableSpace() - it's currently not a bug because there's a check ERRORing for catalog tables. Regression tests and assertion improvements that together trigger the bug described in 1) will be added in a later commit, as there is a related bug on all branches.

2019-04-26Apply stopgap fix for bug #15672.Tom Lane
Fix DefineIndex so that it doesn't attempt to pass down a to-be-reused index relfilenode to a child index creation, and fix TryReuseIndex to not think that reuse is sensible for a partitioned index. In v11, this fixes a problem where ALTER TABLE on a partitioned table could assign the same relfilenode to several different child indexes, causing very nasty catalog corruption --- in fact, attempting to DROP the partitioned table then leads not only to a database crash, but to inability to restart because the same crash will recur during WAL replay. Either of these two changes would be enough to prevent the failure, but since neither action could possibly be sane, let's put in both changes for future-proofing. In HEAD, no such bug manifests, but that's just an accidental consequence of having changed the pg_class representation of partitioned indexes to have relfilenode = 0. Both of these changes still seem like smart future-proofing. This is only a stop-gap because the code for ALTER TABLE on a partitioned table with a no-op type change still leaves a great deal to be desired. As the added regression tests show, it gets things wrong for comments on child indexes/constraints, and it is regenerating child indexes it doesn't have to. However, fixing those problems will take more work which may not get back-patched into v11. We need a fix for the corruption problem now. Per bug #15672 from Jianing Yang. Patch by me, regression test cases based on work by Amit Langote, who also did a lot of the investigative work. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15672-b9fa7db32698269f@postgresql.org
2019-04-25Fix partitioned index attachmentAlvaro Herrera
When an existing index in a partition is attached to a new index on its parent, we forgot to set the "relispartition" flag correctly, which meant that it was not possible to find the index in various operations, such as adding a foreign key constraint that references that partitioned table. One of four places that was assigning the parent index was forgetting to do that, so fix by shifting responsibility of updating the flag to the routine that changes the parent.

2019-04-25Fix tablespace inheritance for partitioned relsAlvaro Herrera
Commit ca4103025dfe left a few loose ends. The most important one (broken pg_dump output) is already fixed by virtue of commit 3b23552ad8bb, but some things remained: * When ALTER TABLE rewrites tables, the indexes must remain in the tablespace they were originally in. This didn't work because index recreation during ALTER TABLE runs manufactured SQL (yuck), which runs afoul of default_tablespace in competition with the parent relation tablespace. To fix, reset default_tablespace to the empty string temporarily, and add the TABLESPACE clause as appropriate. * Setting a partitioned rel's tablespace to the database default is confusing; if it worked, it would direct the partitions to that tablespace regardless of default_tablespace. But in reality it does not work, and making it work is a larger project. Therefore, throw an error when this condition is detected, to alert the unwary. Add some docs and tests, too.

2019-04-23Allow pg_class xid & multixid horizons to not be set.Andres Freund
This allows table AMs that don't need these horizons. This was already documented in the tableam relation_set_new_filenode callback, but an assert prevented if from actually working (the test AM code contained the change itself). Defang the asserts in the general code, and move the stronger ones into heap AM. Relatedly, after CLUSTER/VACUUM, we'd always assign a relfrozenxid / relminmxid. Change the table_relation_copy_for_cluster() interface to allow the AM to overwrite the horizons that get set on the pg_class entry. This'd also in the future allow AMs like heap to compute a relfrozenxid during rewrite that's the table's actual minimum rather than a pre-determined value. Arguably it'd have been better to move the whole computation / setting of those values into the callback, but it seems likely that for other reasons it'd be better to be able to use one value to vacuum/cluster multiple tables (e.g. a toast's horizon shouldn't be different than the table's).
