2018-05-25Fix misidentification of SQL statement type in plpgsql's exec_stmt_execsql.Tom Lane
To distinguish SQL statements that are INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from other ones, exec_stmt_execsql looked at the post-rewrite form of the statement rather than the original. This is problematic because it did that only during first execution of the statement (in a session), but the correct answer could change later due to addition or removal of DO INSTEAD rules during the session. That could lead to an Assert failure, as reported by Tushar Ahuja and Robert Haas. In non-assert builds, there's a hazard that we would fail to enforce STRICT behavior when we'd be expected to. That would happen if an initially present DO INSTEAD, that replaced the original statement with one of a different type, were removed; after that the statement should act "normally", including strictness enforcement, but it didn't. (The converse case of enforcing strictness when we shouldn't doesn't seem to be a hazard, as addition of a DO INSTEAD that changes the statement type would always lead to acting as though the statement returned zero rows, so that the strictness error could not fire.) To fix, inspect the original form of the statement not the post-rewrite form, making it valid to assume the answer can't change intra-session. This should lead to the same answer in every case except when there is a DO INSTEAD that changes the statement type; we will now set mod_stmt=true anyway, while we would not have done so before. That breaks the Assert in the SPI_OK_REWRITTEN code path, which expected the latter behavior. It might be all right to assert mod_stmt rather than !mod_stmt there, but I'm not entirely convinced that that'd always hold, so just remove the assertion altogether. This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CA+TgmoZUrRN4xvZe_BbBn_Xp0BDwuMEue-0OyF0fJpfvU2Yc7Q@mail.gmail.com

2018-03-23Fix make rules that generate multiple output files.Tom Lane
For years, our makefiles have correctly observed that "there is no correct way to write a rule that generates two files". However, what we did is to provide empty rules that "generate" the secondary output files from the primary one, and that's not right either. Depending on the details of the creating process, the primary file might end up timestamped later than one or more secondary files, causing subsequent make runs to consider the secondary file(s) out of date. That's harmless in a plain build, since make will just re-execute the empty rule and nothing happens. But it's fatal in a VPATH build, since make will expect the secondary file to be rebuilt in the build directory. This would manifest as "file not found" failures during VPATH builds from tarballs, if we were ever unlucky enough to ship a tarball with apparently out-of-date secondary files. (It's not clear whether that has ever actually happened, but it definitely could.) To ensure that secondary output files have timestamps >= their primary's, change our makefile convention to be that we provide a "touch $@" action not an empty rule. Also, make sure that this rule actually gets invoked during a distprep run, else the hazard remains. It's been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. In HEAD, I skipped the changes in src/backend/catalog/Makefile, because those rules are due to get replaced soon in the bootstrap data format patch, and there seems no need to create a merge issue for that patch. If for some reason we fail to land that patch in v11, we'll need to back-fill the changes in that one makefile from v10. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18556.1521668179@sss.pgh.pa.us
2018-03-17Fix overflow handling in plpgsql's integer FOR loops.Tom Lane
The test to exit the loop if the integer control value would overflow an int32 turns out not to work on some ICC versions, as it's dependent on the assumption that the compiler will execute the code as written rather than "optimize" it. ICC lacks any equivalent of gcc's -fwrapv switch, so it was optimizing on the assumption of no integer overflow, and that breaks this. Rewrite into a form that in fact does not do any overflowing computations. Per Tomas Vondra and buildfarm member fulmar. It's been like this for a long time, although it was not till we added a regression test case covering the behavior (in commit dd2243f2a) that the problem became apparent. Back-patch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/50562fdc-0876-9843-c883-15b8566c7511@2ndquadrant.com

2015-08-18Fix a few bogus statement type names in plpgsql error messages.Tom Lane
plpgsql's error location context messages ("PL/pgSQL function fn-name line line-no at stmt-type") would misreport a CONTINUE statement as being an EXIT, and misreport a MOVE statement as being a FETCH. These are clear bugs that have been there a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. In addition, in 9.5 and HEAD, change the description of EXECUTE from "EXECUTE statement" to just plain EXECUTE; there seems no good reason why this statement type should be described differently from others that have a well-defined head keyword. And distinguish GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS from plain GET DIAGNOSTICS. These are a bit more of a judgment call, and also affect existing regression-test outputs, so I did not back-patch into stable branches. Pavel Stehule and Tom Lane

2014-05-28Revert "Fix bogus %name-prefix option syntax in all our Bison files."Tom Lane
This reverts commit 45b7abe59e9485657ac9380f35d2d917dd0da25b. It turns out that the %name-prefix syntax without "=" does not work at all in pre-2.4 Bison. We are not prepared to make such a large jump in minimum required Bison version just to suppress a warning message in a version hardly any developers are using yet. When 3.0 gets more popular, we'll figure out a way to deal with this. In the meantime, BISONFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated is recommendable for anyone using 3.0 who doesn't want to see the warning.
2014-05-28Fix bogus %name-prefix option syntax in all our Bison files.Tom Lane
%name-prefix doesn't use an "=" sign according to the Bison docs, but it silently accepted one anyway, until Bison 3.0. This was originally a typo of mine in commit 012abebab1bc72043f3f670bf32e91ae4ee04bd2, and we seem to have slavishly copied the error into all the other grammar files. Per report from Vik Fearing; analysis by Peter Eisentraut. Back-patch to all active branches, since somebody might try to build a back branch with up-to-date tools.

2014-05-01Fix failure to detoast fields in composite elements of structured types.Tom Lane
If we have an array of records stored on disk, the individual record fields cannot contain out-of-line TOAST pointers: the tuptoaster.c mechanisms are only prepared to deal with TOAST pointers appearing in top-level fields of a stored row. The same applies for ranges over composite types, nested composites, etc. However, the existing code only took care of expanding sub-field TOAST pointers for the case of nested composites, not for other structured types containing composites. For example, given a command such as UPDATE tab SET arraycol = ARRAY[(ROW(x,42)::mycompositetype] ... where x is a direct reference to a field of an on-disk tuple, if that field is long enough to be toasted out-of-line then the TOAST pointer would be inserted as-is into the array column. If the source record for x is later deleted, the array field value would become a dangling pointer, leading to errors along the line of "missing chunk number 0 for toast value ..." when the value is referenced. A reproducible test case for this was provided by Jan Pecek, but it seems likely that some of the "missing chunk number" reports we've heard in the past were caused by similar issues. Code-wise, the problem is that PG_DETOAST_DATUM() is not adequate to produce a self-contained Datum value if the Datum is of composite type. Seen in this light, the problem is not just confined to arrays and ranges, but could also affect some other places where detoasting is done in that way, for example form_index_tuple(). I tried teaching the array code to apply toast_flatten_tuple_attribute() along with PG_DETOAST_DATUM() when the array element type is composite, but this was messy and imposed extra cache lookup costs whether or not any TOAST pointers were present, indeed sometimes when the array element type isn't even composite (since sometimes it takes a typcache lookup to find that out). The idea of extending that approach to all the places that currently use PG_DETOAST_DATUM() wasn't attractive at all. This patch instead solves the problem by decreeing that composite Datum values must not contain any out-of-line TOAST pointers in the first place; that is, we expand out-of-line fields at the point of constructing a composite Datum, not at the point where we're about to insert it into a larger tuple. This rule is applied only to true composite Datums, not to tuples that are being passed around the system as tuples, so it's not as invasive as it might sound at first. With this approach, the amount of code that has to be touched for a full solution is greatly reduced, and added cache lookup costs are avoided except when there actually is a TOAST pointer that needs to be inlined. The main drawback of this approach is that we might sometimes dereference a TOAST pointer that will never actually be used by the query, imposing a rather large cost that wasn't there before. On the other side of the coin, if the field value is used multiple times then we'll come out ahead by avoiding repeat detoastings. Experimentation suggests that common SQL coding patterns are unaffected either way, though. Applications that are very negatively affected could be advised to modify their code to not fetch columns they won't be using. In future, we might consider reverting this solution in favor of detoasting only at the point where data is about to be stored to disk, using some method that can drill down into multiple levels of nested structured types. That will require defining new APIs for structured types, though, so it doesn't seem feasible as a back-patchable fix. Note that this patch changes HeapTupleGetDatum() from a macro to a function call; this means that any third-party code using that macro will not get protection against creating TOAST-pointer-containing Datums until it's recompiled. The same applies to any uses of PG_RETURN_HEAPTUPLEHEADER(). It seems likely that this is not a big problem in practice: most of the tuple-returning functions in core and contrib produce outputs that could not possibly be toasted anyway, and the same probably holds for third-party extensions. This bug has existed since TOAST was invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.
2014-04-18Create function prototype as part of PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macroPeter Eisentraut
Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files, but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant. Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of compiler warnings in extension modules. We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that functions have the right prototype. Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.

2013-12-22Change the way we mark tuples as frozen.Robert Haas
Instead of changing the tuple xmin to FrozenTransactionId, the combination of HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED and HEAP_XMIN_INVALID, which were previously never set together, is now defined as HEAP_XMIN_FROZEN. A variety of previous proposals to freeze tuples opportunistically before vacuum_freeze_min_age is reached have foundered on the objection that replacing xmin by FrozenTransactionId might hinder debugging efforts when things in this area go awry; this patch is intended to solve that problem by keeping the XID around (but largely ignoring the value to which it is set). Third-party code that checks for HEAP_XMIN_INVALID on tuples where HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED might be set will be broken by this change. To fix, use the new accessor macros in htup_details.h rather than consulting the bits directly. HeapTupleHeaderGetXmin has been modified to return FrozenTransactionId when the infomask bits indicate that the tuple is frozen; use HeapTupleHeaderGetRawXmin when you already know that the tuple isn't marked commited or frozen, or want the raw value anyway. We currently do this in routines that display the xmin for user consumption, in tqual.c where it's known to be safe and important for the avoidance of extra cycles, and in the function-caching code for various procedural languages, which shouldn't invalidate the cache just because the tuple gets frozen.

2013-11-15Prevent leakage of cached plans and execution trees in plpgsql DO blocks.Tom Lane
plpgsql likes to cache query plans and simple-expression execution state trees across calls. This is a considerable win for multiple executions of the same function. However, it's useless for DO blocks, since by definition those are executed only once and discarded. Nonetheless, we were allowing a DO block's expression execution trees to survive until end of transaction, resulting in a significant intra-transaction memory leak, as reported by Yeb Havinga. Worse, if the DO block exited with an error, the compiled form of the block's code was leaked till end of session --- along with subsidiary plancache entries. To fix, make DO blocks keep their expression execution trees in a private EState that's deleted at exit from the block, and add a PG_TRY block to plpgsql_inline_handler to make sure that memory cleanup happens even on error exits. Also add a regression test covering error handling in a DO block, because my first try at this broke that. (The test is not meant to prove that we don't leak memory anymore, though it could be used for that with a much larger loop count.) Ideally we'd back-patch this into all versions supporting DO blocks; but the patch needs to add a field to struct PLpgSQL_execstate, and that would break ABI compatibility for third-party plugins such as the plpgsql debugger. Given the small number of complaints so far, fixing this in HEAD only seems like an acceptable choice.

2013-08-01Allow a context to be passed in for error handlingStephen Frost
As pointed out by Tom Lane, we can allow other users of the error handler callbacks to provide their own memory context by adding the context to use to ErrorData and using that instead of explicitly using ErrorContext. This then allows GetErrorContextStack() to be called from inside exception handlers, so modify plpgsql to take advantage of that and add an associated regression test for it.
2013-07-25Prevent leakage of SPI tuple tables during subtransaction abort.Tom Lane
plpgsql often just remembers SPI-result tuple tables in local variables, and has no mechanism for freeing them if an ereport(ERROR) causes an escape out of the execution function whose local variable it is. In the original coding, that wasn't a problem because the tuple table would be cleaned up when the function's SPI context went away during transaction abort. However, once plpgsql grew the ability to trap exceptions, repeated trapping of errors within a function could result in significant intra-function-call memory leakage, as illustrated in bug #8279 from Chad Wagner. We could fix this locally in plpgsql with a bunch of PG_TRY/PG_CATCH coding, but that would be tedious, probably slow, and prone to bugs of omission; moreover it would do nothing for similar risks elsewhere. What seems like a better plan is to make SPI itself responsible for freeing tuple tables at subtransaction abort. This patch attacks the problem that way, keeping a list of live tuple tables within each SPI function context. Currently, such freeing is automatic for tuple tables made within the failed subtransaction. We might later add a SPI call to mark a tuple table as not to be freed this way, allowing callers to opt out; but until someone exhibits a clear use-case for such behavior, it doesn't seem worth bothering. A very useful side-effect of this change is that SPI_freetuptable() can now defend itself against bad calls, such as duplicate free requests; this should make things more robust in many places. (In particular, this reduces the risks involved if a third-party extension contains now-redundant SPI_freetuptable() calls in error cleanup code.) Even though the leakage problem is of long standing, it seems imprudent to back-patch this into stable branches, since it does represent an API semantics change for SPI users. We'll patch this in 9.3, but live with the leakage in older branches.
