Background workers, including parallel workers, were generating
the same sequence of numbers in random(). This showed up as DSM
handle collisions when Parallel Hash created multiple segments,
but any code that calls random() in background workers could be
affected if it cares about different backends generating different
numbers.
Repair by making sure that all new processes initialize the seed
at the same time as they set MyProcPid and MyStartTime in a new
function InitProcessGlobals(), called by the postmaster, its
children and also standalone processes. Also add a new high
resolution MyStartTimestamp as a potentially useful by-product,
and remove SessionStartTime from struct Port as it is now
redundant.
No back-patch for now, as the known consequences so far are just
a bunch of harmless shm_open(O_EXCL) collisions.

That's worth it, as fmgr_builtins is frequently accessed, and as
fmgr_builtins is one of the biggest constant variables in a backend.
On most 64bit systems this will change the size of the struct from
32byte to 24bytes. While that could make indexing into the array
marginally more expensive, the higher cache hit ratio is worth more,
especially because these days fmgr_builtins isn't searched with a
binary search anymore (c.f. 212e6f34d5).

The previous code here simply threw away whatever it knew about cache
entry ages whenever a counter overflow occurred. Since the counter
is int width and will be bumped once per format function execution,
overflows are not really so rare as to not be worth thinking about.
Instead, let's deal with the situation by halving all the age values,
essentially rescaling the age metric. In that way, we retain a
pretty accurate (if not quite perfect) idea of which entries are oldest.
|

This eliminates circa 120KB of static data from Postgres' memory
footprint. In some usage patterns that space will get allocated
anyway, but in many processes it never will be allocated.
We can improve matters further by allocating only as many cache
entries as we actually use, rather than allocating the whole array
on first use. However, to avoid wasting lots of space due to
palloc's habit of rounding requests up to power-of-2 sizes, tweak
the maximum cacheable format string length to make the struct sizes
be powers of 2 or just less. The sizes I chose make the maximums
a little bit less than they were before, but I doubt it matters much.
While at it, rearrange struct FormatNode to avoid wasting quite so
much padding space. This change actually halves the size of that
struct on 64-bit machines.

This allows the compiler / linker to mark affected pages as read-only.
There's a fair number of pre-requisite changes, to allow the const
properly be propagated. Most of consts were already required for
correctness anyway, just not represented on the type-level. Arguably
we could be more aggressive in using consts in related code, but..
This requires using a few of the types underlying typedefs that
removes pointers (e.g. const NameData *) as declaring the typedefed
type constant doesn't have the same meaning (it makes the variable
const, not what it points to).

localtime.c's "struct state" is a rather large object, ~23KB. We were
statically allocating one for gmtsub() to use to represent the GMT
timezone, even though that function is not at all heavily used and is
never reached in most backends. Let's malloc it on-demand, instead.
This does pose the question of how to handle a malloc failure, but
there's already a well-defined error report convention here, ie
set errno and return NULL.
We have but one caller of pg_gmtime in HEAD, and two in back branches,
neither of which were troubling to check for error. Make them do so.
The possible errors are sufficiently unlikely (out-of-range timestamp,
and now malloc failure) that I think elog() is adequate.
Back-patch to all supported branches to keep our copies of the IANA
timezone code in sync. This particular change is in a stanza that
already differs from upstream, so it's a wash for maintenance purposes
--- but only as long as we keep the branches the same.

We can allow this macro to accept either abbreviated or non-abbreviated
allocation parameters by making use of __VA_ARGS__. As noted by Andres
Freund, it's unlikely that any compiler would have __builtin_constant_p
but not __VA_ARGS__, so this gives up little or no error checking, and
it avoids a minor but annoying API break for extensions.
With this change, there is no reason for anybody to call
AllocSetContextCreateExtended directly, so in HEAD I renamed it to
AllocSetContextCreateInternal. It's probably too late for an ABI
break like that in 11, though.

There was no code to handle foreign key constraints on partitioned
tables in the case of ALTER TABLE DETACH; and if you happened to ATTACH
a partition that already had an equivalent constraint, that one was
ignored and a new constraint was created. Adding this to the fact that
foreign key cloning reuses the constraint name on the partition instead
of generating a new name (as it probably should, to cater to SQL
standard rules about constraint naming within schemas), the result was a
pretty poor user experience -- the most visible failure was that just
detaching a partition and re-attaching it failed with an error such as
ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_constraint_conrelid_contypid_conname_index"
DETAIL: Key (conrelid, contypid, conname)=(26702, 0, test_result_asset_id_fkey) already exists.
because it would try to create an identically-named constraint in the
partition. To make matters worse, if you tried to drop the constraint
in the now-independent partition, that would fail because the constraint
was still seen as dependent on the constraint in its former parent
partitioned table:
ERROR: cannot drop inherited constraint "test_result_asset_id_fkey" of relation "test_result_cbsystem_0001_0050_monthly_2018_09"
This fix attacks the problem from two angles: first, when the partition
is detached, the constraint is also marked as independent, so the drop
now works. Second, when the partition is re-attached, we scan existing
constraints searching for one matching the FK in the parent, and if one
exists, we link that one to the parent constraint. So we don't end up
with a duplicate -- and better yet, we don't need to scan the referenced
table to verify that the constraint holds.
To implement this I made a small change to previously planner-only
struct ForeignKeyCacheInfo to contain the constraint OID; also relcache
now maintains the list of FKs for partitioned tables too.
Backpatch to 11.

Originally committed as 15bc038f (plus some follow-ups), this was
reverted in 28e07270 due to a problem discovered in parallel
workers. This new version corrects that problem by sending the
list of uncommitted enum values to parallel workers.
Here follows the original commit message describing the change:
To prevent possibly breaking indexes on enum columns, we must keep
uncommitted enum values from getting stored in tables, unless we
can be sure that any such column is new in the current transaction.
Formerly, we enforced this by disallowing ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE
from being executed at all in a transaction block, unless the target
enum type had been created in the current transaction. This patch
removes that restriction, and instead insists that an uncommitted enum
value can't be referenced unless it belongs to an enum type created
in the same transaction as the value. Per discussion, this should be
a bit less onerous. It does require each function that could possibly
return a new enum value to SQL operations to check this restriction,
but there aren't so many of those that this seems unmaintainable.

Up to now, float4out/float8out handled NaN and Infinity cases explicitly,
and invoked psprintf only for ordinary float values. This was done because
platform implementations of snprintf produce varying representations of
these special cases. But now that we use snprintf.c always, it's better
to give it the responsibility to produce a uniform representation of
these cases, so that we have uniformity across the board not only in
float4out/float8out. Hence, move that work into fmtfloat().
Also, teach fmtfloat() to recognize IEEE minus zero and handle it
correctly. The previous coding worked only accidentally, and would
fail for e.g. "%+f" format (it'd print "+-0.00000"). Now that we're
using snprintf.c everywhere, it's not acceptable for it to do weird
things in corner cases. (This incidentally avoids a portability
problem we've seen on some really ancient platforms, that native
sprintf does the wrong thing with minus zero.)
Also, introduce a new entry point in snprintf.c to allow float[48]out
to bypass the work of interpreting a well-known format spec, as well
as bypassing the overhead of the psprintf layer. I modeled this API
loosely on strfromd(). In my testing, this brings float[48]out back
to approximately the same speed they had when using native snprintf,
fixing one of the main performance issues caused by using snprintf.c.
(There is some talk of more aggressive work to improve the speed of
floating-point output conversion, but these changes seem to provide
a better starting point for such work anyway.)
Getting rid of the previous ad-hoc hack for Infinity/NaN in fmtfloat()
allows removing <ctype.h> from snprintf.c's #includes. I also removed
a few other #includes that I think are historical, though the buildfarm
may expose that as wrong.

Places that aren't testing for sign should not use the more expensive
function; it's just wasteful, not to mention being a cognitive load
for readers who may know what isinf() is but not is_infinite().
As things stand, we actually don't need is_infinite() anyplace except
float4out/float8out, which means it could potentially go away altogether
after the changes I proposed in <13178.1538794717@sss.pgh.pa.us>.

When computing statistical aggregates like variance, the common
schoolbook algorithm which computes the sum of the squares of the
values and subtracts the square of the mean can lead to a large loss
of precision when using floating point arithmetic, because the
difference between the two terms is often very small relative to the
terms themselves.
To avoid this, re-work these aggregates to use the Youngs-Cramer
algorithm, which is a proven, numerically stable algorithm that
directly aggregates the sum of the squares of the differences of the
values from the mean in a single pass over the data.
While at it, improve the test coverage to test the aggregate combine
functions used during parallel aggregation.
Per report and suggested algorithm from Erich Schubert.

Instead of recomputing the required lock levels in all these places,
just use what commit fdba460a2 made the parser store in the RTE fields.
This already simplifies the code measurably in these places, and
follow-on changes will remove a bunch of no-longer-needed infrastructure.
In a few cases, this change causes us to acquire a higher lock level
than we did before. This is OK primarily because said higher lock level
should've been acquired already at query parse time; thus, we're saving
a useless extra trip through the shared lock manager to acquire a lesser
lock alongside the original lock. The only known exception to this is
that re-execution of a previously planned SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE query,
for a table that uses ROW_MARK_REFERENCE or ROW_MARK_COPY methods, might
have gotten only AccessShareLock before. Now it will get RowShareLock
like the first execution did, which seems fine.
While there's more to do, push it in this state anyway, to let the
buildfarm help verify that nothing bad happened.

The variants of these functions that take numeric inputs (OIDs or
column numbers) are supposed to return NULL rather than failing
on bad input; this rule reduces problems with snapshot skew when
queries apply the functions to all rows of a catalog.
has_column_privilege() had careless handling of the case where the
table OID didn't exist. You might get something like this:
select has_column_privilege(9999,'nosuchcol','select');
ERROR: column "nosuchcol" of relation "(null)" does not exist
or you might get a crash, depending on the platform's printf's response
to a null string pointer.
In addition, while applying the column-number variant to a dropped
column returned NULL as desired, applying the column-name variant
did not:
select has_column_privilege('mytable','........pg.dropped.2........','select');
ERROR: column "........pg.dropped.2........" of relation "mytable" does not exist
It seems better to make this case return NULL as well.
Also, the OID-accepting variants of has_foreign_data_wrapper_privilege,
has_server_privilege, and has_tablespace_privilege didn't follow the
principle of returning NULL for nonexistent OIDs. Superusers got TRUE,
everybody else got an error.

Add RangeTblEntry.rellockmode, which records the appropriate lock mode for
each RTE_RELATION rangetable entry (either AccessShareLock, RowShareLock,
or RowExclusiveLock depending on the RTE's role in the query).
This patch creates the field and makes all creators of RTE nodes fill it
in reasonably, but for the moment nothing much is done with it. The plan
is to replace assorted post-parser logic that re-determines the right
lockmode to use with simple uses of rte->rellockmode. For now, just add
Asserts in each of those places that the rellockmode matches what they are
computing today. (In some cases the match isn't perfect, so the Asserts
are weaker than you might expect; but this seems OK, as per discussion.)
This passes check-world for me, but it seems worth pushing in this state
to see if the buildfarm finds any problems in cases I failed to test.

The connection authorized message has quite a bit of useful information
in it, but didn't include the application_name (when provided), so let's
add that as it can be very useful.
Note that at the point where we're emitting the connection authorized
message, we haven't processed GUCs, so it's not possible to get this by
using log_line_prefix (which pulls from the GUC). There's also
something to be said for having this included in the connection
authorized message and then not needing to repeat it for every line, as
having it in log_line_prefix would do.
The GUC cleans the application name to pure-ascii, so do that here too,
but pull out the logic for cleaning up a string into its own function
in common and re-use it from those places, and check_cluster_name which
was doing the same thing.

It failed if passed a nonexistent relation OID, or one that was a non-heap
relation, because of blindly applying heap_open to a user-supplied OID.
This is not OK behavior for a SQL-exposed function; we have a project
policy that we should return NULL in such cases. Moreover, since
pg_get_partition_constraintdef ought now to work on indexes, restricting
it to heaps is flat wrong anyway.
The underlying function generate_partition_qual() wasn't on board with
indexes having partition quals either, nor for that matter with rels
having relispartition set but yet null relpartbound. (One wonders
whether the person who wrote the function comment blocks claiming that
these functions allow a missing relpartbound had ever tested it.)
Fix by testing relispartition before opening the rel, and by using
relation_open not heap_open. (If any other relkinds ever grow the
ability to have relispartition set, the code will work with them
automatically.) Also, don't reject null relpartbound in
generate_partition_qual.
Back-patch to v11, and all but the null-relpartbound change to v10.
(It's not really necessary to change generate_partition_qual at all
in v10, but I thought s/heap_open/relation_open/ would be a good
idea anyway just to keep the code in sync with later branches.)

I started out with the idea that we needed to detect use of %m format specs
in contexts other than elog/ereport calls, because we couldn't rely on that
working in *printf calls. But a better answer is to fix things so that it
does work. Now that we're using snprintf.c all the time, we can implement
%m in that and we've fixed the problem.
This requires also adjusting our various printf-wrapping functions so that
they ensure "errno" is preserved when they call snprintf.c.
Remove elog.c's handmade implementation of %m, and let it rely on
snprintf to support the feature. That should provide some performance
gain, though I've not attempted to measure it.
There are a lot of places where we could now simplify 'printf("%s",
strerror(errno))' into 'printf("%m")', but I'm not in any big hurry
to make that happen.

elog.c has long had a private strerror wrapper that handles assorted
possible failures or deficiencies of the platform's strerror. On Windows,
it also knows how to translate Winsock error codes, which the native
strerror does not. Move all this code into src/port/strerror.c and
define strerror() as a macro that invokes it, so that both our frontend
and backend code will have all of this behavior.
I believe this constitutes an actual bug fix on Windows, since AFAICS
our frontend code did not report Winsock error codes properly before this.
However, the main point is to lay the groundwork for implementing %m
in src/port/snprintf.c: the behavior we want %m to have is this one,
not the native strerror's.
Note that this throws away the prior use of src/port/strerror.c,
which was to implement strerror() on platforms lacking it. That's
been dead code for nigh twenty years now, since strerror() was
already required by C89.
We should likewise cause strerror_r to use this behavior, but
I'll tackle that separately.

According to the source history, the internal format of line data type
has changed, but various functions working with it did were not updated
and thus were producing wrong results.
This patch addresses various such issues, in particular:
* Reject invalid specification A=B=0 on receive
* Reject same points on line_construct_pp()
* Fix perpendicular operator when negative values are involved
* Avoid division by zero on perpendicular operator
* Fix intersection and distance operators when neither A nor B are 1
* Return NULL for closest point when objects are parallel
* Check whether closest point of line segments is the intersection point
* Fix closest point of line segments being on the wrong segment
Aside from handling those issues, the patch also aims to make operators
more symmetric and less sen to precision loss. The EPSILON interferes
with even minor changes, but the least we can do is applying it to both
sides of the operators equally.

accessor should refer explicitly to heap tuples.
Instead of just renaming the functions, split it into one function
that accepts heap tuples not residing in buffers, and one accepting
ones in buffers. Previously one function was used for both, but that
was a bit awkward already, and splitting will allow us to represent
slot types for tuples in buffers and normal memory separately.
This is split out from the patch introducing abstract slots, as this
largely consists out of mechanical changes.

array_out overestimated the space needed for its output, possibly by
a very substantial amount if the array is multi-dimensional, because
of wrong order of operations in the loop that counts the number of
curly-brace pairs needed. While the output string is normally
short-lived, this could still cause problems in extreme cases.
An additional minor error was that it counted one more delimiter than
is actually needed.
Repair those errors, add an Assert that the space is now correctly
calculated, and make some minor improvements in the comments.
I also failed to resist the temptation to get rid of an integer
modulus operation per array element; a simple comparison is sufficient.
This bug dates clear back to Berkeley days, so back-patch to all
supported versions.

aclitem functions and operators have been heretofore undocumented.
Fix that. While at it, ensure the non-operator aclitem functions have
pg_description strings.
Does not seem worthwhile to back-patch.

This removes a difference between the standard IsUnderPostmaster
execution environment and that of --boot and --single. In a stand-alone
backend, "SELECT random()" always started at the same seed.
On a system capable of using posix shared memory, initdb could still
conclude "selecting dynamic shared memory implementation ... sysv".
Crashed --boot or --single postgres processes orphaned shared memory
objects having names that collided with the not-actually-random names
that initdb probed. The sysv fallback appeared after ten crashes of
--boot or --single postgres. Since --boot and --single are rare in
production use, systems used for PostgreSQL development are the
principal candidate to notice this symptom.
Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions). PostgreSQL 9.4 introduced
dynamic shared memory, but 9.3 does share the "SELECT random()" problem.

Being able to use a value that can be changed on a connection basis is
useful with clusters distributed geographically, and makes failure
detection more flexible. A note is added in the documentation about the
use of "options" in primary_conninfo, which can be hard to grasp for
newcomers with the need of two single quotes when listing a set of
parameters.

cf984672 introduced improvement of handling of spaces and separators in
to_timestamp()/to_date() functions. In particular, now we're skipping spaces
both before and after fields. That may cause format string text character to
consume part of field in the situations, when it didn't happen before cf984672.
This commit cause format string text character consume input string characters
only when since previous field (or string beginning) number of skipped input
string characters is not greater than number of corresponding format string
characters (that is we didn't skip any extra characters in input string).

If a segment has been freed by dsa.c because it is entirely empty, other
backends must make sure to unmap it before following links to new
segments that might happen to have the same index number, or they could
finish up looking at a defunct segment and then corrupt the segment_bins
lists. The correct protocol requires checking freed_segment_counter
after acquiring the area lock and before resolving any index number to a
segment. Add the missing checks and an assertion.
Back-patch to 10, where dsa.c first arrived.

Currently, KNN searches were supported only by GiST. SP-GiST also capable to
support them. This commit implements that support. SP-GiST scan stack is
replaced with queue, which serves as stack if no ordering is specified. KNN
support is provided for three SP-GIST opclasses: quad_point_ops, kd_point_ops
and poly_ops (catversion is bumped). Some common parts between GiST and SP-GiST
KNNs are extracted into separate functions.

The original coding for XMLTABLE thought it could represent a default
namespace by a T_String Value node with a null string pointer. That's
not okay, though; in particular outfuncs.c/readfuncs.c are not on board
with such a representation, meaning you'll get a null pointer crash
if you try to store a view or rule containing this construct.
To fix, change the parsetree representation so that we have a NULL
list element, instead of a bogus Value node.
This isn't really a functional limitation since default XML namespaces
aren't yet implemented in the executor; you'd just get "DEFAULT
namespace is not supported" anyway. But crashes are not nice, so
back-patch to v10 where this syntax was added. Ordinarily we'd consider
a parsetree representation change to be un-backpatchable; but since
existing releases would crash on the way to storing such constructs,
there can't be any existing views/rules to be incompatible with.
Per report from Andrey Lepikhov.

Per discussion, JIT isn't quite mature enough to ship enabled-by-default.
I failed to resist the temptation to do a bunch of copy-editing on the
related documentation. Also, clean up some inconsistencies in which
section of config.sgml the JIT GUCs are documented in vs. what guc.c
and postgresql.config.sample had.

Commit c8ea87e4b introduced a temporary conversion buffer for
substrings extracted during regexp splits. Unfortunately the code that
sized it was failing to ignore the effects of ignored degenerate
regexp matches, so for regexp_split_* calls it could under-size the
buffer in such cases.
Fix, and add some regression test cases (though those will only catch
the bug if run in a multibyte encoding).
Backpatch to 9.3 as the faulty code was.
Thanks to the PostGIS project, Regina Obe and Paul Ramsey for the
report (via IRC) and assistance in analysis. Patch by me.
