This change ensures that the planner will see implicit and explicit casts
as equivalent for all purposes, except in the minority of cases where
there's actually a semantic difference (as reflected by having a 3-argument
cast function). In particular, this fixes cases where the EquivalenceClass
machinery failed to consider two references to a varchar column as
equivalent if one was implicitly cast to text but the other was explicitly
cast to text, as seen in bug #7598 from Vaclav Juza. We have had similar
bugs before in other parts of the planner, so I think it's time to fix this
problem at the core instead of continuing to band-aid around it.
Remove set_coercionform_dontcare(), which represents the band-aid
previously in use for allowing matching of index and constraint expressions
with inconsistent cast labeling. (We can probably get rid of
COERCE_DONTCARE altogether, but I don't think removing that enum value in
back branches would be wise; it's possible there's third party code
referring to it.)
Back-patch to 9.2. We could go back further, and might want to once this
has been tested more; but for the moment I won't risk destabilizing plan
choices in long-since-stable branches.

When hashing a subplan like "WHERE (a, b) NOT IN (SELECT x, y FROM ...)",
findPartialMatch() attempted to match rows using the hashtable's internal
equality operators, which of course are for x and y's datatypes. What we
need to use are the potentially cross-type operators for a=x, b=y, etc.
Failure to do that leads to wrong answers or even crashes. The scope for
problems is limited to cases where we have different types with compatible
hash functions (else we'd not be using a hashed subplan), but for example
int4 vs int8 can cause the problem.
Per bug #7597 from Bo Jensen. This has been wrong since the hashed-subplan
code was written, so patch all the way back.

Building a shlib on AIX requires use of the mkldexport.sh script, but we
failed to install that, preventing its use from non-source-tree contexts.
Also, Makefile.aix had the wrong idea about where to find the installed
copy of the postgres.imp symbol file used by AIX.
Per report from John Pierce. Patch all the way back, since this has been
broken since the beginning of PGXS.

I found that these functions tend to return -1 while leaving an empty error
message string in the PGconn, if they suffer some kind of I/O error on the
file. The reason is that lo_close, which thinks it's executed a perfectly
fine SQL command, clears the errorMessage. The minimum-change workaround
is to reorder operations here so that we don't fill the errorMessage until
after lo_close.
|
|
lo_export returns -1, not zero, on failure.

examine_simple_variable supposed that any RTE_SUBQUERY rel it gets pointed
at must have been planned already. However, this isn't a safe assumption
because we must do selectivity estimation while generating indexscan paths,
and that code might look at join clauses involving a rel that the loop in
set_base_rel_sizes() hasn't reached yet. The simplest fix is to play dumb
in such a situation, that is give up trying to extract any stats for the
Var. This could possibly be improved by making a separate pass over the
RTE list to plan each unflattened subquery before we start the main
planning work --- but that would be pretty invasive and it doesn't seem
worth it, for now at least. (We couldn't just break set_base_rel_sizes()
into two loops: the prescan would need to handle all subquery rels in the
query, not only those in the current join subproblem.)
This bug was introduced in commit 1cb108efb0e60d87e4adec38e7636b6e8efbeb57,
although I think that subsequent changes may have exposed it more than it
was originally. Per bug #7580 from Maxim Boguk.

Apparently this was considered in the original code (see commit

On some platforms these functions return NULL, rather than the more common
practice of returning a pointer to a zero-sized block of memory. Hack our
various wrapper functions to hide the difference by substituting a size
request of 1. This is probably not so important for the callers, who
should never touch the block anyway if they asked for size 0 --- but it's
important for the wrapper functions themselves, which mistakenly treated
the NULL result as an out-of-memory failure. This broke at least pg_dump
for the case of no user-defined aggregates, as per report from
Matthew Carrington.
Back-patch to 9.2 to fix the pg_dump issue. Given the lack of previous
complaints, it seems likely that there is no live bug in previous releases,
even though some of these functions were in place before that.

The tar output module did some very ugly and ultimately incorrect hacking
on COPY commands to try to get them to work in the context of restoring a
deconstructed tar archive. In particular, it would fail altogether for
table names containing any upper-case characters, since it smashed the
command string to lower-case before modifying it (and, just to add insult
to injury, did that in a way that would fail in multibyte encodings).
I don't see any particular value in being flexible about the case of the
command keywords, since the string will just have been created by
dumpTableData, so let's get rid of the whole case-folding thing.
Also, it doesn't seem to meet the POLA for the script to restore data only
in COPY mode, so add \i commands to make it have comparable behavior in
--inserts mode.
Noted while looking at the tar-output code in connection with Brian
Weaver's patch.

Back-patch portions of commit 05b555d12bc2ad0d581f48a12b45174db41dc10d.
There doesn't seem to be any reason not to fix pg_basebackup fully, but
we can't change pg_dump's "magic" string without breaking older versions
of pg_restore. Instead, just patch pg_restore to accept either version
of the magic string, in hopes of avoiding compatibility problems when
9.3 comes out. I also fixed pg_dump to write the correct 2-block EOF
marker, since that won't create a compatibility problem with pg_restore
and it could help with some versions of tar.

This fixes another error in commit 9e8da0f75731aaa7605cf4656c21ea09e84d2eb1.
I neglected to make the mark/restore functionality save and restore the
current set of array key values, which led to strange behavior if an
IndexScan with ScalarArrayOpExpr quals was used as the inner side of a
mergejoin. Per bug #7570 from Melese Tesfaye.

This worked fine for superusers, but not for ordinary users trying to
cancel their own processes. Tweak the order the checks are done in so
that we correctly return SIGNAL_BACKEND_ERROR (which current callers
know to ignore without erroring out) so that an ordinary user can loop
through a resultset without fearing that a process might exit in the
middle of said looping -- causing the remaining processes to go
unsignalled.
Incidentally, the last in-core caller of IsBackendPid() is now gone.
However, the function is exported and must remain in place, because
there are plenty of callers in external modules.

These calls were removed in commit 4240e429d0c2d889d0cda23c618f94e12c13ade7
as part of a general refactoring and improvement of DDL locking. However,
there's a problem not solved by the rewrite, which is that GRANT/REVOKE
update pg_class.relacl without taking any particular lock on the target
table as such. If another backend fails to do AcceptInvalidationMessages,
it won't notice a recently-committed change in ACLs. Bug #7557 from Piotr
Czachur demonstrates that there's at least one code path in 9.2.0 in which
a command fails to do any AcceptInvalidationMessages calls at all, if the
current transaction already holds all the locks it will need.
Since we're hard up against the release deadline for 9.2.1, fix this by
putting back the AcceptInvalidationMessages calls in heap_openrv and
heap_openrv_extended, thereby restoring the historical behavior in this
area. We ought to look for a more elegant and perhaps more bulletproof
solution, but there's no time for that right now.

In commit 9e8da0f75731aaa7605cf4656c21ea09e84d2eb1, I improved btree
to handle ScalarArrayOpExpr quals natively, so that constructs like
"indexedcol IN (list)" could be supported by index-only scans. Using
such a qual results in multiple scans of the index, under-the-hood.
I went to some lengths to ensure that this still produces rows in index
order ... but I failed to recognize that if a higher-order index column
is lacking an equality constraint, rescans can produce out-of-order
data from that column. Tweak the planner to not expect sorted output
in that case. Per trouble report from Robert McGehee.

Some experimentation with examples similar to bug #7539 has convinced me
that indxpath.c's original implementation of parameterized-path generation
was several bricks shy of a load. In general, if we are relying on a
particular outer rel or set of outer rels for a parameterized path, the
path should use every indexable join clause that's available from that rel
or rels. Any join clauses that get left out of the indexqual will end up
getting applied as plain filter quals (qpquals), and that's generally a
significant loser compared to having the index AM enforce them. (This is
particularly true with btree, which can skip the index scan entirely if
it can see that the given indexquals are mutually contradictory.) The
original heuristics failed to ensure this, though, and were overly
complicated anyway. Rewrite to make the code explicitly identify each
useful set of outer rels and then select all applicable join clauses for
each one. The one plan that changes in the regression tests is in fact
for the better according to the planner's cost estimates.
(Note: this is not a correctness issue but just a matter of plan quality.
I don't yet know what is going on in bug #7539, but I don't expect this
change to fix that.)

Back-patch commits 9afc6481117d2dd936e752da0424a2b6b05f6459 and
b8fbbcf37f22c5e8361da939ad0fc4be18a34ca9. The first of these is really
a minor code cleanup to save a few cycles, but it turns out to provide
a workaround for the misoptimization problem described in bug #7516.
The second commit adds a regression test case.
Back-patch the fix to all active branches. The test case only works
as far back as 9.0, because it relies on plpgsql which isn't installed
by default before that. (I didn't have success modifying it into an
all-plperl form that still provoked a crash, though this may just reflect
my lack of Perl-fu.)

In commit 1bc16a946008a7cbb33a9a06a7c6765a807d7f59 I added a minor
optimization to drop the component variables of a GROUP BY expression from
the target list computed at the aggregation level of a query, if those Vars
weren't referenced elsewhere in the tlist. However, I overlooked that the
window-function planning code would deconstruct such expressions and thus
need to have access to their component variables. Fix it to not do that.
While at it, I removed the distinction between volatile and nonvolatile
window partition/order expressions: the code now computes all of them
at the aggregation level. This saves a relatively expensive check for
volatility, and it's unclear that the resulting plan isn't better anyway.

I made multiple errors in commit 97532f7c29468010b87e40a04f8daa3eb097f654,
stemming mostly from failure to think about the available frequency data
as being element frequencies not value frequencies (so that occurrences of
different elements are not mutually exclusive). This led to sillinesses
such as estimating that "word" would match more rows than "word:*".
The choice to clamp to a minimum estimate of DEFAULT_TS_MATCH_SEL also
seems pretty ill-considered in hindsight, as it would frequently result in
an estimate much larger than the available data suggests. We do need some
sort of clamp, since a pattern not matching any of the MCELEMs probably
still needs a selectivity estimate of more than zero. I chose instead to
clamp to at least what a non-MCELEM word would be estimated as, preserving
the property that "word:*" doesn't get an estimate less than plain "word",
whether or not the word appears in MCELEM.
Per investigation of a gripe from Bill Martin, though I suspect that his
example case actually isn't even reaching the erroneous code.

validate_plperl_function() supposed that it could free an old
plperl_proc_desc struct immediately upon detecting that it was stale.
However, if a plperl function is called recursively, this could result
in deleting the struct out from under an outer invocation, leading to
misbehavior or crashes. Add a simple reference-count mechanism to
ensure that such structs are freed only when the last reference goes
away.
Per investigation of bug #7516 from Marko Tiikkaja. I am not certain
that this error explains his report, because he says he didn't have
any recursive calls --- but it's hard to see how else it could have
crashed right there. In any case, this definitely fixes some problems
in the area.

Investigation shows that some intermittent build failures in ecpg are the
result of a gmake bug that was reported quite some time ago:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?30653
Preventing parallel builds of the ecpg subdirectories seems to dodge the
bug. Per yesterday's pgsql-hackers discussion, there are some other things
in the subdirectory makefiles that seem rather unsafe for parallel builds
too, but there's little point in fixing them as long as we have to work
around a make bug.
Back-patch to 9.1; parallel builds weren't very well supported before
that anyway.

Commit 2cfb1c6f77734db81b6e74bcae630f93b94f69be fixed some issues caused
by Python 3.3 choosing to iterate through dict entries in a different order
than before. But here's another one: the test cases adjusted here made two
bad entries in a dict and expected the one complained of would always be
the same.
Possibly this should be back-patched further than 9.2, but there seems
little point unless the earlier fix is too.

The planner previously assumed that parameter Vars having the same absolute
query level, varno, and varattno could safely be assigned the same runtime
PARAM_EXEC slot, even though they might be different Vars appearing in
different subqueries. This was (probably) safe before the introduction of
CTEs, but the lazy-evalution mechanism used for CTEs means that a CTE can
be executed during execution of some other subquery, causing the lifespan
of Params at the same syntactic nesting level as the CTE to overlap with
use of the same slots inside the CTE. In 9.1 we created additional hazards
by using the same parameter-assignment technology for nestloop inner scan
parameters, but it was broken before that, as illustrated by the added
regression test.
To fix, restructure the planner's management of PlannerParamItems so that
items having different semantic lifespans are kept rigorously separated.
This will probably result in complex queries using more runtime PARAM_EXEC
slots than before, but the slots are cheap enough that this hardly matters.
Also, stop generating PlannerParamItems containing Params for subquery
outputs: all we really need to do is reserve the PARAM_EXEC slot number,
and that now only takes incrementing a counter. The planning code is
simpler and probably faster than before, as well as being more correct.

When the startup process restores a WAL file from the archive, it deletes
any old file with the same name and renames the new file in its place. On
Windows, however, when a file is deleted, it still lingers as long as a
process holds a file handle open on it. With cascading replication, a
walsender process can hold the old file open, so the rename() in the startup
process would fail. To fix that, rename the old file to a temporary name, to
make the original file name available for reuse, before deleting the old
file.

Perl, for some unaccountable reason, believes it's a good idea to reset
SIGFPE handling to SIG_IGN. Which wouldn't be a good idea even if it
worked; but on some platforms (Linux at least) it doesn't work at all,
instead resulting in forced process termination if the signal occurs.
Given the lack of other complaints, it seems safe to assume that Perl
never actually provokes SIGFPE and so there is no value in the setting
anyway. Hence, reset it to our normal handler after initializing Perl.

The cascading replication code assumed that the current RecoveryTargetTLI
never changes, but that's not true with recovery_target_timeline='latest'.
The obvious upshot of that is that RecoveryTargetTLI in shared memory needs
to be protected by a lock. A less obvious consequence is that when a
cascading standby is connected, and the standby switches to a new target
timeline after scanning the archive, it will continue to stream WAL to the
cascading standby, but from a wrong file, ie. the file of the previous
timeline. For example, if the standby is currently streaming from the middle
of file 000000010000000000000005, and the timeline changes, the standby
will continue to stream from that file. However, the WAL on the new
timeline is in file 000000020000000000000005, so the standby sends garbage
from 000000010000000000000005 to the cascading standby, instead of the
correct WAL from file 000000020000000000000005.
This also fixes a related bug where a partial WAL segment is restored from
the archive and streamed to a cascading standby. The code assumed that when
a WAL segment is copied from the archive, it can immediately be fully
streamed to a cascading standby. However, if the segment is only partially
filled, ie. has the right size, but only N first bytes contain valid WAL,
that's not safe. That can happen if a partial WAL segment is manually copied
to the archive, or if a partial WAL segment is archived because a server is
started up on a new timeline within that segment. The cascading standby will
get confused if the WAL it received is not valid, and will get stuck until
it's restarted. This patch fixes that problem by not allowing WAL restored
from the archive to be streamed to a cascading standby until it's been
replayed, and thus validated.

Serializable Snapshot Isolation used for serializable transactions
depends on acquiring SIRead locks on all heap relation tuples which
are used to generate the query result, so that a later delete or
update of any of the tuples can flag a read-write conflict between
transactions. This is normally handled in heapam.c, with tuple level
locking. Since an index-only scan avoids heap access in many cases,
building the result from the index tuple, the necessary predicate
locks were not being acquired for all tuples in an index-only scan.
To prevent problems with tuple IDs which are vacuumed and re-used
while the transaction still matters, the xmin of the tuple is part of
the tag for the tuple lock. Since xmin is not available to the
index-only scan for result rows generated from the index tuples, it
is not possible to acquire a tuple-level predicate lock in such
cases, in spite of having the tid. If we went to the heap to get the
xmin value, it would no longer be an index-only scan. Rather than
prohibit index-only scans under serializable transaction isolation,
we acquire an SIRead lock on the page containing the tuple, when it
was not necessary to visit the heap for other reasons.

Formerly it would only show them for relkinds 'r' and 'f' (plain tables
and foreign tables). However, as of 9.2, views can also have reloptions,
namely security_barrier. The relkind restriction seems pointless and
not at all future-proof, so just print reloptions whenever there are any.
In passing, make some cosmetic improvements to the code that pulls the
"tableinfo" fields out of the PGresult.
