CLUSTER sort won't use the datum1 SortTuple field when clustering
against an index whose leading key is an expression. This makes it
unsafe to use the abbreviated keys optimization, which was missed by the
logic that sets up SortSupport state. Affected tuplesorts output tuples
in a completely bogus order as a result (the wrong SortSupport based
comparator was used for the leading attribute).
This issue is similar to the bug fixed on the master branch by recent
commit cc58eecc5d. But it's a far older issue, that dates back to the
introduction of the abbreviated keys optimization by commit 4ea51cdfe8.

The planner needs to treat GroupingFunc like Aggref for many purposes,
in particular with respect to processing of the argument expressions,
which are not to be evaluated at runtime. A few places hadn't gotten
that memo, notably including subselect.c's processing of outer-level
aggregates. This resulted in assertion failures or wrong plans for
cases in which a GROUPING() construct references an outer aggregation
level.
Also fix missing special cases for GroupingFunc in cost_qual_eval
(resulting in wrong cost estimates for GROUPING(), although it's
not clear that that would affect plan shapes in practice) and in
ruleutils.c (resulting in excess parentheses in pretty-print mode).

Most of these are cases where we could call memcpy() or other libc
functions with a NULL pointer and a zero count, which is forbidden
by POSIX even though every production version of libc allows it.
We've fixed such things before in a piecemeal way, but apparently
never made an effort to try to get them all. I don't claim that
this patch does so either, but it gets every failure I observe in
check-world, using clang 12.0.1 on current RHEL8.
numeric.c has a different issue that the sanitizer doesn't like:
"ln(-1.0)" will compute log10(0) and then try to assign the
resulting -Inf to an integer variable. We don't actually use the
result in such a case, so there's no live bug.
Back-patch to all supported branches, with the idea that we might
start running a buildfarm member that tests this case. This includes
back-patching c1132aae3 (Check the size in COPY_POINTER_FIELD),
which previously silenced some of these issues in copyfuncs.c.

Commit 8431e296ea reworked ProcArrayApplyRecoveryInfo to sort XIDs
before adding them to KnownAssignedXids. But the XIDs are sorted using
xidComparator, which compares the XIDs simply as uint32 values, not
logically. KnownAssignedXidsAdd() however expects XIDs in logical order,
and calls TransactionIdFollowsOrEquals() to enforce that. If there are
XIDs for which the two orderings disagree, an error is raised and the
recovery fails/restarts.
Hitting this issue is fairly easy - you just need two transactions, one
started before the 4B limit (e.g. XID 4294967290), the other sometime
after it (e.g. XID 1000). Logically (4294967290 <= 1000) but when
compared using xidComparator we try to add them in the opposite order.
Which makes KnownAssignedXidsAdd() fail with an error like this:
ERROR: out-of-order XID insertion in KnownAssignedXids
This only happens during replica startup, while processing RUNNING_XACTS
records to build the snapshot. Once we reach STANDBY_SNAPSHOT_READY, we
skip these records. So this does not affect already running replicas,
but if you restart (or create) a replica while there are transactions
with XIDs for which the two orderings disagree, you may hit this.
Long-running transactions and frequent replica restarts increase the
likelihood of hitting this issue. Once the replica gets into this state,
it can't be started (even if the old transactions are terminated).
Fixed by sorting the XIDs logically - this is fine because we're dealing
with normal XIDs (because it's XIDs assigned to backends) and from the
same wraparound epoch (otherwise the backends could not be running at
the same time on the primary node). So there are no problems with the
triangle inequality, which is why xidComparator compares raw values.

Commit 859b3003de disabled building of extended stats for inheritance
trees, to prevent updating the same catalog row twice. While that
resolved the issue, it also means there are no extended stats for
declaratively partitioned tables, because there are no data in the
non-leaf relations.
That also means declaratively partitioned tables were not affected by
the issue 859b3003de addressed, which means this is a regression
affecting queries that calculate estimates for the whole inheritance
tree as a whole (which includes e.g. GROUP BY queries).
But because partitioned tables are empty, we can invert the condition
and build statistics only for the case with inheritance, without losing
anything. And we can consider them when calculating estimates.
It may be necessary to run ANALYZE on partitioned tables, to collect
proper statistics. For declarative partitioning there should no prior
statistics, and it might take time before autoanalyze is triggered. For
tables partitioned by inheritance the statistics may include data from
child relations (if built 859b3003de), contradicting the current code.

Since commit 859b3003de we only build extended statistics for individual
relations, ignoring the child relations. This resolved the issue with
updating catalog tuple twice, but we still tried to use the statistics
when calculating estimates for the whole inheritance tree. When the
relations contain very distinct data, it may produce bogus estimates.
This is roughly the same issue 427c6b5b9 addressed ~15 years ago, and we
fix it the same way - by ignoring extended statistics when calculating
estimates for the inheritance tree as a whole. We still consider
extended statistics when calculating estimates for individual child
relations, of course.
This may result in plan changes due to different estimates, but if the
old statistics were not describing the inheritance tree particularly
well it's quite likely the new plans is actually better.

Commit 7745bc352 intended to ensure that whole-row Vars would be
printed with "::type" decoration in all contexts where plain
"var.*" notation would result in star-expansion, notably in
ROW() and VALUES() constructs. However, it missed the case of
INSERT with a single-row VALUES, as reported by Timur Khanjanov.
Nosing around ruleutils.c, I found a second oversight: the
code for RowCompareExpr generates ROW() notation without benefit
of an actual RowExpr, and naturally it wasn't in sync :-(.
(The code for FieldStore also does this, but we don't expect that
to generate strictly parsable SQL anyway, so I left it alone.)

The purpose of commit 8a54e12a38d1545d249f1402f66c8cde2837d97c was to
fix this, and it sufficed when the PREPARE TRANSACTION completed before
the CIC looked for lock conflicts. Otherwise, things still broke. As
before, in a cluster having used CIC while having enabled prepared
transactions, queries that use the resulting index can silently fail to
find rows. It may be necessary to reindex to recover from past
occurrences; REINDEX CONCURRENTLY suffices. Fix this for future index
builds by making CIC wait for arbitrarily-recent prepared transactions
and for ordinary transactions that may yet PREPARE TRANSACTION. As part
of that, have PREPARE TRANSACTION transfer locks to its dummy PGPROC
before it calls ProcArrayClearTransaction(). Back-patch to 9.6 (all

This fixes a loss of precision that occurs when the first input is
very close to 1, so that its logarithm is very small.
Formerly, during the initial low-precision calculation to estimate the
result weight, the logarithm was computed to a local rscale that was
capped to NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE (1000). However, the base may be
as close as 1e-16383 to 1, hence its logarithm may be as small as
1e-16383, and so the local rscale needs to be allowed to exceed 16383,
otherwise all precision is lost, leading to a poor choice of rscale
for the full-precision calculation.
Fix this by removing the cap on the local rscale during the initial
low-precision calculation, as we already do in the full-precision
calculation. This doesn't change the fact that the initial calculation
is a low-precision approximation, computing the logarithm to around 8
significant digits, which is very fast, especially when the base is
very close to 1.

get_variable_range() would incautiously believe that statistics
containing only an MCV list are sufficient to derive a range estimate.
That's okay for an enum-like column that contains only MCVs, but
otherwise the estimate could be pretty bad. Make it report that the
range is indeterminate unless the MCVs plus nullfrac account for
the whole table.
I don't think this needs a dedicated test case, since a quick code
coverage check verifies that the existing regression tests traverse
all the alternatives. There is room to doubt that a future-proof
test case could be built anyway, given that the submitted example
accidentally doesn't fail before v11.

Formerly, the numeric code tested whether an integer value of a larger
type would fit in a smaller type by casting it to the smaller type and
then testing if the reverse conversion produced the original value.
That's perfectly fine, except that it caused a test failure on
buildfarm animal castoroides, most likely due to a compiler bug.
Instead, do these tests by comparing against PG_INT16/32_MIN/MAX. That
matches existing code in other places, such as int84(), which is more
widely tested, and so is less likely to go wrong.
While at it, add regression tests covering the numeric-to-int8/4/2
conversions, and adjust the recently added tests to the style of
434ddfb79a (on the v11 branch) to make failures easier to diagnose.

This fixes a long-standing bug when using to_char() to format a
numeric value in scientific notation -- if the value's exponent is
less than -NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE-1 (-1001), it produced a
division-by-zero error.
The reason for this error was that get_str_from_var_sci() divides its
input by 10^exp, which it produced using power_var_int(). However, the
underflow test in power_var_int() causes it to return zero if the
result scale is too small. That's not a problem for power_var_int()'s
only other caller, power_var(), since that limits the rscale to 1000,
but in get_str_from_var_sci() the exponent can be much smaller,
requiring a much larger rscale. Fix by introducing a new function to
compute 10^exp directly, with no rscale limit. This also allows 10^exp
to be computed more efficiently, without any numeric multiplication,
division or rounding.

This fixes a couple of related problems that arise when raising
numbers to very large powers.
Firstly, when raising a negative number to a very large integer power,
the result should be well-defined, but the previous code would only
cope if the exponent was small enough to go through power_var_int().
Otherwise it would throw an internal error, attempting to take the
logarithm of a negative number. Fix this by adding suitable handling
to the general case in power_var() to cope with negative bases,
checking for integer powers there.
Next, when raising a (positive or negative) number whose absolute
value is slightly less than 1 to a very large power, the result should
approach zero as the power is increased. However, in some cases, for
sufficiently large powers, this would lose all precision and return 1
instead of 0. This was due to the way that the local_rscale was being
calculated for the final full-precision calculation:
local_rscale = rscale + (int) val - ln_dweight + 8
The first two terms on the right hand side are meant to give the
number of significant digits required in the result ("val" being the
estimated result weight). However, this failed to account for the fact
that rscale is clipped to a maximum of NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE
(1000), and the result weight might be less then -1000, causing their
sum to be negative, leading to a loss of precision. Fix this by
forcing the number of significant digits calculated to be nonnegative.
It's OK for it to be zero (when the result weight is less than -1000),
since the local_rscale value then includes a few extra digits to
ensure an accurate result.
Finally, add additional underflow checks to exp_var() and power_var(),
so that they consistently return zero for cases like this where the
result is indistinguishable from zero. Some paths through this code
already returned zero in such cases, but others were throwing overflow
errors.

This changes the behavior of examining the pg_file_settings view after

However, for the case where the line is removed altogether, the flag

that's not called for lines removed. Repair.

This commit improves those error messages by replacing it with

This fixes a theoretical bug in tuplesort.c which, if a bounded sort was
used in combination with a byval Datum sort (tuplesort_begin_datum), when
switching the sort to a bounded heap in make_bounded_heap(), we'd call
free_sort_tuple(). The problem was that when sorting Datums of a byval
type, the tuple is NULL and free_sort_tuple() would free the memory for it
regardless of that. This would result in a crash.
Here we fix that simply by adding a check to see if the tuple is NULL
before trying to disassociate and free any memory belonging to it.
The reason this bug is only theoretical is that nowhere in the current
code base do we do tuplesort_set_bound() when performing a Datum sort.
However, let's backpatch a fix for this as if any extension uses the code
in this way then it's likely to cause problems.

Due to how pg_size_pretty(bigint) was implemented, it's possible that when
given a negative number of bytes that the returning value would not match
the equivalent positive return value when given the equivalent positive
number of bytes. This was due to two separate issues.
1. The function used bit shifting to convert the number of bytes into
larger units. The rounding performed by bit shifting is not the same as
dividing. For example -3 >> 1 = -2, but -3 / 2 = -1. These two
operations are only equivalent with positive numbers.
2. The half_rounded() macro rounded towards positive infinity. This meant
that negative numbers rounded towards zero and positive numbers rounded
away from zero.
Here we fix #1 by dividing the values instead of bit shifting. We fix #2
by adjusting the half_rounded macro always to round away from zero.
Additionally, adjust the pg_size_pretty(numeric) function to be more
explicit that it's using division rather than bit shifting. A casual
observer might have believed bit shifting was used due to a static
function being named numeric_shift_right. However, that function was
calculating the divisor from the number of bits and performed division.
Here we make that more clear. This change is just cosmetic and does not
affect the return value of the numeric version of the function.
Here we also add a set of regression tests both versions of
pg_size_pretty() which test the values directly before and after the
function switches to the next unit.
This bug was introduced in 8a1fab36a. Prior to that negative values were
always displayed in bytes.

Commit 03ffc4d6d added logic to bypass all caching behavior in
LookupOpclassInfo when CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS is enabled. It doesn't
look like I stopped to think much about what that would cost, but
recent investigation shows that the cost is enormous: it roughly
doubles the time needed for cache-clobber test runs.
There does seem to be value in this behavior when trying to test
the opclass-cache loading logic itself, but for other purposes the
cost is excessive. Hence, let's back off to doing this only when
debug_invalidate_system_caches_always is at least 3; or in older
branches, when CLOBBER_CACHE_RECURSIVELY is defined.
While here, clean up some other minor issues in LookupOpclassInfo.
Re-order the code so we aren't left with broken cache entries (leading
to later core dumps) in the unlikely case that we suffer OOM while
trying to allocate space for a new entry. (That seems to be my
oversight in 03ffc4d6d.) Also, in >= v13, stop allocating one array
entry too many. That's evidently left over from sloppy reversion in

groupingSets as well as groupClause, so that it would allow
degenerate grouping sets. That resulted in a bad plan and
a null-pointer dereference in the executor.
Looking around for other instances of the same bug, the only one
I found was in examine_simple_variable(). That'd just lead to
silly estimates, but it should be fixed too.

While we were (mostly) careful about ensuring that the dimensions of
arrays aren't large enough to cause integer overflow, the lower bound
values were generally not checked. This allows situations where
lower_bound + dimension overflows an integer. It seems that that's
harmless so far as array reading is concerned, except that array
elements with subscripts notionally exceeding INT_MAX are inaccessible.
However, it confuses various array-assignment logic, resulting in a
potential for memory stomps.
Fix by adding checks that array lower bounds aren't large enough to
cause lower_bound + dimension to overflow. (Note: this results in
disallowing cases where the last subscript position would be exactly
INT_MAX. In principle we could probably allow that, but there's a lot
of code that computes lower_bound + dimension and would need adjustment.
It seems doubtful that it's worth the trouble/risk to allow it.)
Somewhat independently of that, array_set_element() was careless
about possible overflow when checking the subscript of a fixed-length
array, creating a different route to memory stomps. Fix that too.

Most GUC check hooks that inspect database state have special checks
that prevent them from throwing hard errors for state-dependent issues
when source == PGC_S_TEST. This allows, for example,
"ALTER DATABASE d SET default_text_search_config = foo" when the "foo"
configuration hasn't been created yet. Without this, we have problems
during dump/reload or pg_upgrade, because pg_dump has no idea about
possible dependencies of GUC values and can't ensure a safe restore
ordering.
However, check_role() and check_session_authorization() hadn't gotten
the memo about that, and would throw hard errors anyway. It's not
entirely clear what is the use-case for "ALTER ROLE x SET role = y",
but we've now heard two independent complaints about that bollixing
an upgrade, so apparently some people are doing it.
Hence, fix these two functions to act more like other check hooks
with similar needs. (But I did not change their insistence on
being inside a transaction, as it's still not apparent that setting
either GUC from the configuration file would be wise.)
Also fix check_temp_buffers, which had a different form of the disease
of making state-dependent checks without any exception for PGC_S_TEST.
A cursory survey of other GUC check hooks did not find any more issues
of this ilk. (There are a lot of interdependencies among
PGC_POSTMASTER and PGC_SIGHUP GUCs, which may be a bad idea, but
they're not relevant to the immediate concern because they can't be
set via ALTER ROLE/DATABASE.)

Using Roman numbers (via "RM" or "rm") for a conversion to calculate a
number of months has never considered the case of negative numbers,
where a conversion could easily cause out-of-bound memory accesses. The
conversions in themselves were not completely consistent either, as
specifying 12 would result in NULL, but it should mean XII.
This commit reworks the conversion calculation to have a more
consistent behavior:
- If the number of months and years is 0, return NULL.
- If the number of months is positive, return the exact month number.
- If the number of months is negative, do a backward calculation, with
-1 meaning December, -2 November, etc.

When estimating the number of groups using extended statistics, the code
was discarding information about system attributes. This led to strange
situation that
SELECT 1 FROM t GROUP BY ctid;
could have produced higher estimate (equal to pg_class.reltuples) than
SELECT 1 FROM t GROUP BY a, b, ctid;
with extended statistics on (a,b). Fixed by retaining information about
the system attribute.
Backpatch all the way to 10, where extended statistics were introduced.

Because guc.c prefers to keep all its string values in malloc'd
not palloc'd storage, it has to be more careful than usual to
avoid leaks. Error exits out of string GUC hook checks failed
to clear the proposed value string, and error exits out of
ProcessGUCArray() failed to clear the malloc'd results of
ParseLongOption().

FreeBSD 13 gained O_DSYNC, which would normally cause wal_sync_method to
choose open_datasync as its default value. That may not be a good
choice for all systems, and performs worse than fdatasync in some
scenarios. Let's preserve the existing default behavior for now.
Like commit 576477e73c4, which did the same for Linux, back-patch to all
supported releases.

Given a regex pattern with a very long fixed prefix (approaching 500
characters), the result of pow(FIXED_CHAR_SEL, fixed_prefix_len) can
underflow to zero. Typically the preceding selectivity calculation
would have underflowed as well, so that we compute 0/0 and get NaN.
In released branches this leads to an assertion failure later on.
That doesn't happen in HEAD, for reasons I've not explored yet,
but it's surely still a bug.
To fix, just skip the division when the pow() result is zero, so
that we'll (most likely) return a zero selectivity estimate. In
the edge cases where "sel" didn't yet underflow, perhaps this
isn't desirable, but I'm not sure that the case is worth spending
a lot of effort on. The results of regex_selectivity_sub() are
barely worth the electrons they're written on anyway :-(

I chanced to notice that this dumped core due to a faulty Assert.
To add insult to injury, the output has been misformatted since v11.
Obviously we need some regression testing here.

Commit bc43b7c2c0 used fabs() directly on an int variable, which
apparently requires an explicit cast on some platforms.
Per buildfarm.
|
|
In power_var_int(), the computation of the number of significant
digits to use in the computation used log(Abs(exp)), which isn't safe
because Abs(exp) returns INT_MIN when exp is INT_MIN. Use fabs()
instead of Abs(), so that the exponent is cast to a double before the
absolute value is taken.

The code in charge of processing a single invalidation message has been
using since 568d413 the structure for relation mapping messages. This
had fortunately no consequence as both locate the database ID at the
same location, but it could become a problem in the future if this area
of the code changes.

The jsonb || jsonb operator arbitrarily rejected certain combinations
of scalar and non-scalar inputs, while being willing to concatenate
other combinations. This was of course quite undocumented. Rather
than trying to document it, let's just remove the restriction,
creating a uniform rule that unless we are handling an object-to-object
concatenation, non-array inputs are converted to one-element arrays,
resulting in an array-to-array concatenation. (This does not change
the behavior for any case that didn't throw an error before.)
Per complaint from Joel Jacobson. Back-patch to all supported branches.
