When a view has a function-returning-composite in FROM, and there are
some dropped columns in the underlying composite type, ruleutils.c
printed junk in the column alias list for the reconstructed FROM entry.
Before 9.3, this was prevented by doing get_rte_attribute_is_dropped
tests while printing the column alias list; but that solution is not
currently available to us for reasons I'll explain below. Instead,
check for empty-string entries in the alias list, which can only exist
if that column position had been dropped at the time the view was made.
(The parser fills in empty strings to preserve the invariant that the
aliases correspond to physical column positions.)
While this is sufficient to handle the case of columns dropped before
the view was made, we have still got issues with columns dropped after
the view was made. In particular, the view could contain Vars that
explicitly reference such columns! The dependency machinery really
ought to refuse the column drop attempt in such cases, as it would do
when trying to drop a table column that's explicitly referenced in
views. However, we currently neglect to store dependencies on columns
of composite types, and fixing that is likely to be too big to be
back-patchable (not to mention that existing views in existing databases
would not have the needed pg_depend entries anyway). So I'll leave that
for a separate patch.
Pre-9.3, ruleutils would print such Vars normally (with their original
column names) even though it suppressed their entries in the RTE's
column alias list. This is certainly bogus, since the printed view
definition would fail to reload, but at least it didn't crash. However,
as of 9.3 the printed column alias list is tightly tied to the names
printed for Vars; so we can't treat columns as dropped for one purpose
and not dropped for the other. This is why we can't just put back the
get_rte_attribute_is_dropped test: it results in an assertion failure
if the view in fact contains any Vars referencing the dropped column.
Once we've got dependencies preventing such cases, we'll probably want
to do it that way instead of relying on the empty-string test used here.
This fix turned up a very ancient bug in outfuncs/readfuncs, namely
that T_String nodes containing empty strings were not dumped/reloaded
correctly: the node was printed as "<>" which is read as a string
value of <>. Since (per SQL) we disallow empty-string identifiers,
such nodes don't occur normally, which is why we'd not noticed.
(Such nodes aren't used for literal constants, just identifiers.)
Per report from Marc Schablewski. Back-patch to 9.3 which is where
the rule printing behavior changed. The dangling-variable case is
broken all the way back, but that's not what his complaint is about.

pg_ctl will log to the Windows event log when it is running as a service,
which is the primary way of running PostgreSQL on Windows. This option
makes it possible to specify which event source to use for this, in order
to separate different instances. The server logging itself is still controlled
by the regular logging parameters, including a separate setting for the event
source. The parameter to pg_ctl only controlls the logging from pg_ctl itself.

The consistent function contained several bugs:
* The "if (which2) { ... }" block was broken. It compared the argument's
lower bound against centroid's upper bound, while it was supposed to compare
the argument's upper bound against the centroid's lower bound (the comment
was correct, code was wrong). Also, it cleared bits in the "which1"
variable, while it was supposed to clear bits in "which2".
* If the argument's upper bound was equal to the centroid's lower bound, we
descended to both halves (= all quadrants). That's unnecessary, searching
the right quadrants is sufficient. This didn't lead to incorrect query
results, but was clearly wrong, and slowed down queries unnecessarily.
* In the case that argument's lower bound is adjacent to the centroid's
upper bound, we also don't need to visit all quadrants. Per similar
reasoning as previous point.
* The code where we compare the previous centroid with the current centroid
should match the code where we compare the current centroid with the
argument. The point of that code is to redo the calculation done in the
previous level, to see if we were supposed to traverse left or right (or up
or down), and if we actually did. If we moved in the different direction,
then we know there are no matches for bound.
Refactor the code and adds comments to make it more readable and easier to
reason about.
Backpatch to 9.3 where SP-GiST support for range types was introduced.

Prominent binaries already had this metadata. A handful of minor

The isxdigit() calls relied on undefined behavior. The isascii() call
was well-defined, but our prevailing style is to include the cast.
Back-patch to 9.4, where the isxdigit() calls were introduced.

Although nodeAgg.c currently uses the same per-group memory context for
all groups of a query, that might change in future. Avoid assuming it.
This costs us an extra AggCheckCallContext() call per group, but that's
pretty cheap and is probably good from a safety standpoint anyway.
Back-patch to 9.4 in case any third-party code copies this logic.

The previous design exposed the input and output ExprContexts of the
Agg plan node, but work on grouping sets has suggested that we'll regret
doing that. Instead provide more narrowly-defined APIs that can be
implemented in multiple ways, namely a way to get a short-term memory
context and a way to register an aggregate shutdown callback.
Back-patch to 9.4 where the bad APIs were introduced, since we don't
want third-party code using these APIs and then having to change in 9.5.

The previous code, perhaps out of concern for avoid memory leaks, formed
the tuple in one memory context and then copied it to another memory
context. However, this doesn't appear to be necessary, since
index_form_tuple and the functions it calls take precautions against
leaking memory. In my testing, building the tuple directly inside the
sort context shaves several percent off the index build time.
Rearrange things so we do that.

The assertion failed if WAL_DEBUG or LWLOCK_STATS was enabled; fix that by
using separate memory contexts for the allocations made within those code
blocks.
This patch introduces a mechanism for marking any memory context as allowed
in a critical section. Previously ErrorContext was exempt as a special case.
Instead of a blanket exception of the checkpointer process, only exempt the
memory context used for the pending ops hash table.

The "false" case was really quite useless since all it did was to throw
an error; a definition not helped in the least by making it the default.
Instead let's just have the "true" case, which emits nested objects and
arrays in JSON syntax. We might later want to provide the ability to
emit sub-objects in Postgres record or array syntax, but we'd be best off
to drive that off a check of the target field datatype, not a separate
argument.
For the functions newly added in 9.4, we can just remove the flag arguments
outright. We can't do that for json_populate_record[set], which already
existed in 9.3, but we can ignore the argument and always behave as if it
were "true". It helps that the flag arguments were optional and not
documented in any useful fashion anyway.

When running several postgres clusters on one OS instance it's often
inconveniently hard to identify which "postgres" process belongs to
which postgres instance.
Add the cluster_name GUC, whose value will be included as part of the
process titles if set. With that processes can more easily identified
using tools like 'ps'.
To avoid problems with encoding mismatches between postgresql.conf,
consoles, and individual databases replace non-ASCII chars in the name
with question marks. The length is limited to NAMEDATALEN to make it
less likely to truncate important information at the end of the
status.

Support for running postgres on Alpha hasn't been tested for a long
while. Due to Alpha's uniquely lax cache coherency model it's a hard
to develop for platform (especially blindly!) and thought to be
unlikely to currently work correctly.
As Alpha is the only supported architecture for Tru64 drop support for
it as well. Tru64's support has ended 2012 and it has been in
maintenance-only mode for much longer.
Also remove stray references to __ksr__ and ultrix defines.

I noticed that the functions in jsonfuncs.c sometimes printed error
messages that claimed I'd called some other function. Investigation showed
that this was from repurposing code into "worker" functions without taking
much care as to whether it would mention the right SQL-level function if it
threw an error. Moreover, there was a weird mismash of messages that
contained a fixed function name, messages that used %s for a function name,
and messages that constructed a function name out of spare parts, like
"json%s_populate_record" (which, quite aside from being ugly as sin, wasn't
even sufficient to cover all the cases). This would put an undue burden on
our long-suffering translators. Standardize on inserting the SQL function
name with %s so as to reduce the number of translatable strings, and pass
function names around as needed to make sure we can report the right one.
Fix up some gratuitous variations in wording, too.

populate_recordset_object_start() improperly created a new hash table
(overwriting the link to the existing one) if called at nest levels
greater than one. This resulted in previous fields not appearing in
the final output, as reported by Matti Hameister in bug #10728.
In 9.4 the problem also affects json_to_recordset.
This perhaps missed detection earlier because the default behavior is to
throw an error for nested objects: you have to pass use_json_as_text = true
to see the problem.
In addition, fix query-lifespan leakage of the hashtable created by
json_populate_record(). This is pretty much the same problem recently
fixed in dblink: creating an intended-to-be-temporary context underneath
the executor's per-tuple context isn't enough to make it go away at the
end of the tuple cycle, because MemoryContextReset is not
MemoryContextResetAndDeleteChildren.

The catcache code is effectively assuming this already, so let's insist
that the catalog and index are actually declared that way.
Having done that, the comments in indexing.h about non-unique indexes
not being used for catcaches are completely redundant not just mostly so;
and we didn't have such a comment for every such index anyway. So let's
get rid of them.
Per discussion of whether we should identify primary keys for catalogs.
We might or might not take that further step, but this change in itself
will allow quicker detection of misdeclared catcaches, so it seems worth
doing in any case.

The existance of the assert_enabled variable (backing the
debug_assertions GUC) reduced the amount of knowledge some static code
checkers (like coverity and various compilers) could infer from the
existance of the assertion. That could have been solved by optionally
removing the assertion_enabled variable from the Assert() et al macros
at compile time when some special macro is defined, but the resulting
complication doesn't seem to be worth the gain from having
debug_assertions. Recompiling is fast enough.
The debug_assertions GUC is still available, but readonly, as it's
useful when diagnosing problems. The commandline/client startup option
-A, which previously also allowed to enable/disable assertions, has
been removed as it doesn't serve a purpose anymore.
While at it, reduce code duplication in bufmgr.c and localbuf.c
assertions checking for spurious buffer pins. That code had to be
reindented anyway to cope with the assert_enabled removal.

data_directory could be set both in postgresql.conf and postgresql.auto.conf so far.

The check was confusing and is a condition that should never in fact

This SQL-standard feature allows a sub-SELECT yielding multiple columns
(but only one row) to be used to compute the new values of several columns
to be updated. While the same results can be had with an independent
sub-SELECT per column, such a workaround can require a great deal of
duplicated computation.
The standard actually says that the source for a multi-column assignment
could be any row-valued expression. The implementation used here is
tightly tied to our existing sub-SELECT support and can't handle other
cases; the Bison grammar would have some issues with them too. However,
I don't feel too bad about this since other cases can be converted into
sub-SELECTs. For instance, "SET (a,b,c) = row_valued_function(x)" could
be written "SET (a,b,c) = (SELECT * FROM row_valued_function(x))".

We should report the errno when we get a failure from functions like
BufFileWrite. "ERROR: write failed" is unreasonably taciturn for a
case that's well within the realm of possibility; I've seen it a
couple times in the buildfarm recently, in situations that were
probably out-of-disk-space, but it'd be good to see the errno
to confirm it.
I think this code was originally written without assuming that
the buffile.c functions would return useful errno; but most other
callers *are* assuming that, and a quick look at the buffile code
gives no reason to suppose otherwise.
Also, a couple of the old messages were phrased on the assumption
that a short read might indicate a logic bug in tuplestore itself;
but that code's pretty well tested by now, so a filesystem-level
problem seems much more likely.

This is needed to allow ORDER BY, DISTINCT, etc to work as expected for
pg_lsn values.
We had previously decided to put this off for 9.5, but in view of commit
eeca4cd35e284c72b2ea1b4494e64e7738896e81 there's no reason to avoid a
catversion bump for 9.4beta2, and this does make a pretty significant
usability difference for pg_lsn.

HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() didn't properly discern between
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS and INSERT_IN_PROGRESS for rows that have been
inserted in the current transaction and deleted in a aborted
subtransaction of the current backend. At the very least that caused
problems for CLUSTER and CREATE INDEX in transactions that had
aborting subtransactions producing rows, leading to warnings like:
WARNING: concurrent delete in progress within table "..."
possibly in an endless, uninterruptible, loop.
Instead of treating *InProgress xmins the same as *IsCurrent ones,
treat them as being distinct like the other visibility routines. As
implemented this separatation can cause a behaviour change for rows
that have been inserted and deleted in another, still running,
transaction. HTSV will now return INSERT_IN_PROGRESS instead of
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS for those. That's both, more in line with the other
visibility routines and arguably more correct. The latter because a
INSERT_IN_PROGRESS will make callers look at/wait for xmin, instead of
xmax.
The only current caller where that's possibly worse than the old
behaviour is heap_prune_chain() which now won't mark the page as
prunable if a row has concurrently been inserted and deleted. That's
harmless enough.
As a cautionary measure also insert a interrupt check before the gotos
in IndexBuildHeapScan() that lead to the uninterruptible loop. There
are other possible causes, like a row that several sessions try to
update and all fail, for repeated loops and the cost of doing so in
the retry case is low.
As this bug goes back all the way to the introduction of
subtransactions in 573a71a5da backpatch to all supported releases.

Previously, any backslash in text being escaped for JSON was doubled so
that the result was still valid JSON. However, this led to some perverse
results in the case of Unicode sequences, These are now detected and the
initial backslash is no longer escaped. All other backslashes are
still escaped. No validity check is performed, all that is looked for is
\uXXXX where X is a hexidecimal digit.
This is a change from the 9.2 and 9.3 behaviour as noted in the Release
notes.
Per complaint from Teodor Sigaev.

Many JSON processors require timestamp strings in ISO 8601 format in
order to convert the strings. When converting a timestamp, with or
without timezone, to a JSON datum we therefore now use such a format
rather than the type's default text output, in functions such as
to_json().
This is a change in behaviour from 9.2 and 9.3, as noted in the release
notes.

Instead of iterating over jsonb structures, use the inbuilt functions
findJsonbValueFromContainerLen() and getIthJsonbValueFromContainer() to
extract values directly. These functions use algorithms that are O(n log
n) and O(1) respectively, whereas iterating is O(n), so we should see
considerable speedup here.

The only caller of compareJsonbScalarValue that needed locale-sensitive
comparison of strings was also the only caller that didn't just check for
equality. Separate the two cases for clarity: compareJsonbScalarValue now
does locale-sensitive comparison, and a new function,
equalsJsonbScalarValue, just checks for equality.

HeapTupleHeaderGetCmax() asserts that it is only used if the tuple has
been updated by the current transaction. That check is correct and
sensible but requires allocating memory if xmax is a multixact. When
wal_level is set to logical cmax needs to be included in a wal record
, generated inside a critical section, which can trigger the assertion
added in 4a170ee9e.

Define padding bytes in SharedInvalidationMessage structs to be
defined. Otherwise the sinvaladt.c ringbuffer, which is accessed by
multiple processes, will cause spurious valgrind warnings about
undefined memory being used. That's because valgrind remembers the
undefined bytes from the last local process's store, not realizing
that another process has written since, filling the previously
uninitialized bytes.

RelationCacheInsert() ignored the possibility that hash_search(HASH_ENTER)
might find a hashtable entry already present for the same OID. However,
that can in fact occur during recursive relcache load scenarios. When it
did happen, we overwrote the pointer to the pre-existing Relation, causing
a session-lifespan leakage of that entire structure. As far as is known,
the pre-existing Relation would always have reference count zero by the
time we arrive back at the outer insertion, so add code that deletes the
pre-existing Relation if so. If by some chance its refcount is positive,
elog a WARNING and allow the pre-existing Relation to be leaked as before.
Also, AttrDefaultFetch() was sloppy about leaking the cstring form of the
pg_attrdef.adbin value it's copying into the relcache structure. This is
only a query-lifespan leakage, and normally not very significant, but it
adds up during CLOBBER_CACHE testing.
These bugs are of very ancient vintage, but I'll refrain from back-patching
since there's no evidence that these leaks amount to anything in ordinary
usage.

Several years ago we changed chr(int) so that if the database encoding is
UTF8, it would interpret its argument as a Unicode code point and expand it
into the appropriate multibyte sequence. However, we weren't sufficiently
careful about checking validity of the input. According to RFC3629, UTF8
disallows code points above U+10FFFF (note that the predecessor standard
RFC2279 was more liberal). Also, both versions of the UTF8 spec agree
that Unicode surrogate-pair codes should never appear in UTF8. Because
our encoding validity checks follow RFC3629, our failure to enforce these
restrictions in chr() means it could be used to produce text strings that
will be rejected when the database is dumped and reloaded. To ensure
consistency with the input functions, let's actually apply
pg_utf8_islegal() to the proposed output of chr().
Per discussion, this seems like too much of a behavioral change to
back-patch, but it's not too late to squeeze it into 9.4.

The proc array can contain duplicate XIDs, when a transaction is just being

it will be accepted.

rd_replidindex should be managed the same as rd_oidindex, and rd_keyattr
and rd_idattr should be managed like rd_indexattr. Omissions in this area
meant that the bitmapsets computed for rd_keyattr and rd_idattr would be
leaked during any relcache flush, resulting in a slow but permanent leak in
CacheMemoryContext. There was also a tiny probability of relcache entry
corruption if we ran out of memory at just the wrong point in
RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap. Otherwise, the fields were not zeroed where
expected, which would not bother the code any AFAICS but could greatly
confuse anyone examining the relcache entry while debugging.
Also, create an API function RelationGetReplicaIndex rather than letting
non-relcache code be intimate with the mechanisms underlying caching of
that value (we won't even mention the memory leak there).
Also, fix a relcache flush hazard identified by Andres Freund:
RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap must not assume that rd_replidindex stays valid
across index_open.
The aspects of this involving rd_keyattr date back to 9.3, so back-patch
those changes.

The original coding for ALTER SYSTEM made a fundamentally bogus assumption
that postgresql.auto.conf could be sought relative to the main config file
if we hadn't yet determined the value of data_directory. This fails for
common arrangements with the config file elsewhere, as reported by
Christoph Berg.
The simplest fix is to not try to read postgresql.auto.conf until after
SelectConfigFiles has chosen (and locked down) the data_directory setting.
Because of the logic in ProcessConfigFile for handling resetting of GUCs
that've been removed from the config file, we cannot easily read the main
and auto config files separately; so this patch adopts a brute force
approach of reading the main config file twice during postmaster startup.
That's a tad ugly, but the actual time cost is likely to be negligible,
and there's no time for a more invasive redesign before beta.
With this patch, any attempt to set data_directory via ALTER SYSTEM
will be silently ignored. It would probably be better to throw an
error, but that can be dealt with later. This bug, however, would
prevent any testing of ALTER SYSTEM by a significant fraction of the
userbase, so it seems important to get it fixed before beta.

There's no longer much pressure to switch the default GIN opclass for
jsonb, but there was still some unhappiness with the name "jsonb_hash_ops",
since hashing is no longer a distinguishing property of that opclass,
and anyway it seems like a relatively minor detail. At the suggestion of
Heikki Linnakangas, we'll use "jsonb_path_ops" instead; that captures the
important characteristic that each index entry depends on the entire path
from the document root to the indexed value.
Also add a user-facing explanation of the implementation properties of
these two opclasses.
