2021-05-31Improve some error wording with multirange type parsingMichael Paquier
Braces were referred in some error messages as only brackets (not curly brackets or curly braces), which can be confusing as other types of brackets could be used. While on it, add one test to check after the case of junk characters detected after a right brace.

2021-05-27Reduce the range of OIDs reserved for genbki.pl.Tom Lane
Commit ab596105b increased FirstBootstrapObjectId from 12000 to 13000, but we've had some push-back about that. It's worrisome to reduce the daylight between there and FirstNormalObjectId, because the number of OIDs consumed during initdb for collation objects is hard to predict. We can improve the situation by abandoning the assumption that these OIDs must be globally unique. It should be sufficient for them to be unique per-catalog. (Any code that's unhappy about that is broken anyway, since no more than per-catalog uniqueness can be guaranteed once the OID counter wraps around.) With that change, the largest OID assigned during genbki.pl (starting from a base of 10000) is a bit under 11000. This allows reverting FirstBootstrapObjectId to 12000 with reasonable confidence that that will be sufficient for many years to come. We are not, at this time, abandoning the expectation that hand-assigned OIDs (below 10000) are globally unique. Someday that'll likely be necessary, but the need seems years away still. This is late for v14, but it seems worth doing it now so that downstream software doesn't have to deal with the consequences of a change in FirstBootstrapObjectId. In any case, we already bought into forcing an initdb for beta2, so another catversion bump won't hurt. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1665197.1622065382@sss.pgh.pa.us
2021-05-27Rethink definition of pg_attribute.attcompression.Tom Lane
Redefine '\0' (InvalidCompressionMethod) as meaning "if we need to compress, use the current setting of default_toast_compression". This allows '\0' to be a suitable default choice regardless of datatype, greatly simplifying code paths that initialize tupledescs and the like. It seems like a more user-friendly approach as well, because now the default compression choice doesn't migrate into table definitions, meaning that changing default_toast_compression is usually sufficient to flip an installation's behavior; one needn't tediously issue per-column ALTER SET COMPRESSION commands. Along the way, fix a few minor bugs and documentation issues with the per-column-compression feature. Adopt more robust APIs for SetIndexStorageProperties and GetAttributeCompression. Bump catversion because typical contents of attcompression will now be different. We could get away without doing that, but it seems better to ensure v14 installations all agree on this. (We already forced initdb for beta2, anyway.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/626613.1621787110@sss.pgh.pa.us

2021-05-27Fix assertion during streaming of multi-insert toast changes.Amit Kapila
While decoding the multi-insert WAL we can't clean the toast untill we get the last insert of that WAL record. Now if we stream the changes before we get the last change, the memory for toast chunks won't be released and we expect the txn to have streamed all changes after streaming. This restriction is mainly to ensure the correctness of streamed transactions and it doesn't seem worth uplifting such a restriction just to allow this case because anyway we will stream the transaction once such an insert is complete. Previously we were using two different flags (one for toast tuples and another for speculative inserts) to indicate partial changes. Now instead we replaced both of them with a single flag to indicate partial changes.

2021-05-25Fix use of uninitialized variable in inline_function().Tom Lane
Commit e717a9a18 introduced a code path that bypassed the call of get_expr_result_type, which is not good because we need its rettupdesc result to pass to check_sql_fn_retval. We'd failed to notice right away because the code path in which check_sql_fn_retval uses that argument is fairly hard to reach in this context. It's not impossible though, and in any case inline_function would have no business assuming that check_sql_fn_retval doesn't need that value. To fix, move get_expr_result_type out of the if-block, which in turn requires moving the construction of the dummy FuncExpr out of it. Per report from Ranier Vilela.

2021-05-25Make detach-partition-concurrently-3 less timing-sensitiveAlvaro Herrera
This recently added test has shown to be too sensitive to timing when sending a cancel to a session waiting for a lock. We fix this by running a no-op query in the blocked session immediately after the cancel; this avoids the session that sent the cancel sending another query immediately before the cancel has been reported. Idea by Noah Misch. With that fix, we sometimes see that the cancel error report is shown only relative to the step that is cancelled, instead of together with the step that sends the cancel. To increase the probability that both steps are shown togeter, add a 0.1s sleep to the cancel. In normal conditions this appears sufficient to silence most failures, but we'll see that the slower buildfarm members say about it.

2021-05-25Fix memory leak when de-toasting compressed values in VACUUM FULL/CLUSTERMichael Paquier
VACUUM FULL and CLUSTER can be used to enforce the use of the existing compression method of a toastable column if a value currently stored is compressed with a method that does not match the column's defined method. The code in charge of decompressing and recompressing toast values at rewrite left around the detoasted values, causing an accumulation of memory allocated in TopTransactionContext. When processing large relations, this could cause the system to run out of memory. The detoasted values are not needed once their tuple is rewritten, and this commit ensures that the necessary cleanup happens. Issue introduced by bbe0a81d.

2021-05-25Disallow SSL renegotiationMichael Paquier
SSL renegotiation is already disabled as of 48d23c72, however this does not prevent the server to comply with a client willing to use renegotiation. In the last couple of years, renegotiation had its set of security issues and flaws (like the recent CVE-2021-3449), and it could be possible to crash the backend with a client attempting renegotiation. This commit takes one extra step by disabling renegotiation in the backend in the same way as SSL compression (f9264d15) or tickets (97d3a0b0). OpenSSL 1.1.0h has added an option named SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION able to achieve that. In older versions there is an option called SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS that was undocumented, and could be set within the SSL object created when the TLS connection opens, but I have decided not to use it, as it feels trickier to rely on, and it is not official. Note that this option is not usable in OpenSSL < 1.1.0h as the internal contents of the *SSL object are hidden to applications. SSL renegotiation concerns protocols up to TLSv1.2.

2021-05-24Consider triggering VACUUM failsafe during scan.Peter Geoghegan
The wraparound failsafe mechanism added by commit 1e55e7d1 handled the one-pass strategy case (i.e. the "table has no indexes" case) by adding a dedicated failsafe check. This made up for the fact that the usual one-pass checks inside lazy_vacuum_all_indexes() cannot ever be reached during a one-pass strategy VACUUM. This approach failed to account for two-pass VACUUMs that opt out of index vacuuming up-front. The INDEX_CLEANUP off case in the only case that works like that. Fix this by performing a failsafe check every 4GB during the first scan of the heap, regardless of the details of the VACUUM. This eliminates the special case, and will make the failsafe trigger more reliably.

2021-05-22Fix access to no-longer-open relcache entry in logical-rep worker.Tom Lane
If we redirected a replicated tuple operation into a partition child table, and then tried to fire AFTER triggers for that event, the relation cache entry for the child table was already closed. This has no visible ill effects as long as the entry is still there and still valid, but an unluckily-timed cache flush could result in a crash or other misbehavior. To fix, postpone the ExecCleanupTupleRouting call (which is what closes the child table) until after we've fired triggers. This requires a bit of refactoring so that the cleanup function can have access to the necessary state. In HEAD, I took the opportunity to simplify some of worker.c's function APIs based on use of the new ApplyExecutionData struct. However, it doesn't seem safe/practical to back-patch that aspect, at least not without a lot of analysis of possible interactions with a04daa97a. In passing, add an Assert to afterTriggerInvokeEvents to catch such cases. This seems worthwhile because we've grown a number of fairly unstructured ways of calling AfterTriggerEndQuery.

In the wake of 84f5c2908, it's no longer necessary for plpgsql to handle SET/RESET specially. The point of that was just to avoid taking a new transaction snapshot prematurely, which the regular code path through _SPI_execute_plan() now does just fine (in fact better, since it now does the right thing for LOCK too). Hence, rip out a few lines of code, going back to the old way of treating SET/RESET as a generic SQL command. This essentially reverts all but the test cases from b981275b6.

2021-05-22Fix planner's use of Result Cache with unique joinsDavid Rowley
When the planner considered using a Result Cache node to cache results from the inner side of a Nested Loop Join, it failed to consider that the inner path's parameterization may not be the entire join condition. If the join was marked as inner_unique then we may accidentally put the cache in singlerow mode. This meant that entries would be marked as complete after caching the first row. That was wrong as if only part of the join condition was parameterized then the uniqueness of the unique join was not guaranteed at the Result Cache's level. The uniqueness is only guaranteed after Nested Loop applies the join filter. If subsequent rows were found, this would lead to: ERROR: cache entry already complete This could have been fixed by only putting the cache in singlerow mode if the entire join condition was parameterized. However, Nested Loop will only read its inner side so far as the first matching row when the join is unique, so that might mean we never get an opportunity to mark cache entries as complete. Since non-complete cache entries are useless for subsequent lookups, we just don't bother considering a Result Cache path in this case. In passing, remove the XXX comment that claimed the above ERROR might be better suited to be an Assert. After there being an actual case which triggered it, it seems better to keep it an ERROR.

This was previously allowed, but I think that was just an oversight. It's a clear violation of the rule that a generated column cannot depend on itself or other generated columns. Moreover, because the code was relying on the assumption that no such cross-references exist, it was pretty easy to crash ALTER TABLE and perhaps other places. Even if you managed not to crash, you got quite unstable, implementation-dependent results. Per report from Vitaly Ustinov. Back-patch to v12 where GENERATED came in.

2021-05-21Restore the portal-level snapshot after procedure COMMIT/ROLLBACK.Tom Lane
COMMIT/ROLLBACK necessarily destroys all snapshots within the session. The original implementation of intra-procedure transactions just cavalierly did that, ignoring the fact that this left us executing in a rather different environment than normal. In particular, it turns out that handling of toasted datums depends rather critically on there being an outer ActiveSnapshot: otherwise, when SPI or the core executor pop whatever snapshot they used and return, it's unsafe to dereference any toasted datums that may appear in the query result. It's possible to demonstrate "no known snapshots" and "missing chunk number N for toast value" errors as a result of this oversight. Historically this outer snapshot has been held by the Portal code, and that seems like a good plan to preserve. So add infrastructure to pquery.c to allow re-establishing the Portal-owned snapshot if it's not there anymore, and add enough bookkeeping support that we can tell whether it is or not. We can't, however, just re-establish the Portal snapshot as part of COMMIT/ROLLBACK. As in normal transaction start, acquiring the first snapshot should wait until after SET and LOCK commands. Hence, teach spi.c about doing this at the right time. (Note that this patch doesn't fix the problem for any PLs that try to run intra-procedure transactions without using SPI to execute SQL commands.) This makes SPI's no_snapshots parameter rather a misnomer, so in HEAD, rename that to allow_nonatomic. replication/logical/worker.c also needs some fixes, because it wasn't careful to hold a snapshot open around AFTER trigger execution. That code doesn't use a Portal, which I suspect someday we're gonna have to fix. But for now, just rearrange the order of operations. This includes back-patching the recent addition of finish_estate() to centralize the cleanup logic there. This also back-patches commit 2ecfeda3e into v13, to improve the test coverage for worker.c (it was that test that exposed that worker.c's snapshot management is wrong).

2021-05-21Fix deadlock for multiple replicating truncates of the same table.Amit Kapila
While applying the truncate change, the logical apply worker acquires RowExclusiveLock on the relation being truncated. This allowed truncate on the relation at a time by two apply workers which lead to a deadlock. The reason was that one of the workers after updating the pg_class tuple tries to acquire SHARE lock on the relation and started to wait for the second worker which has acquired RowExclusiveLock on the relation. And when the second worker tries to update the pg_class tuple, it starts to wait for the first worker which leads to a deadlock.

2021-05-20Avoid detoasting failure after COMMIT inside a plpgsql FOR loop.Tom Lane
exec_for_query() normally tries to prefetch a few rows at a time from the query being iterated over, so as to reduce executor entry/exit overhead. Unfortunately this is unsafe if we have COMMIT or ROLLBACK within the loop, because there might be TOAST references in the data that we prefetched but haven't yet examined. Immediately after the COMMIT/ROLLBACK, we have no snapshots in the session, meaning that VACUUM is at liberty to remove recently-deleted TOAST rows. This was originally reported as a case triggering the "no known snapshots" error in init_toast_snapshot(), but even if you miss hitting that, you can get "missing toast chunk", as illustrated by the added isolation test case. To fix, just disable prefetching in non-atomic contexts. Maybe there will be performance complaints prompting us to work harder later, but it's not clear at the moment that this really costs much, and I doubt we'd want to back-patch any complicated fix. In passing, adjust that error message in init_toast_snapshot() to be a little clearer about the likely cause of the problem. Patch by me, based on earlier investigation by Konstantin Knizhnik.

Recently we refactored things so that pg_regress makes the "testtablespace" subdirectory used by the core regression tests, instead of doing that in the makefiles.

This commit changes a standby promotion so that it marks the recovery pause state as 'not paused' when it's triggered, to fix the issue.

2021-05-19Fix 020_messages.pl test.Amit Kapila
We were not waiting for a publisher to catch up with the subscriber after creating a subscription. Now, it can happen that apply worker starts replication even after we have disabled the subscription in the test. This will make the test expect that there is no active slot whereas there exists one. Fix this symptom by allowing the publisher to wait for catching up with the subscription. It is not a good idea to ensure if the slot is still active by checking for walsender existence as we release the slot after we clean up the walsender related memory. Fix that by checking the slot status in pg_replication_slots. Also, it is better to avoid repeated enabling/disabling of the subscription. Finally, we make autovacuum off for this test to avoid any empty transaction appearing in the test while consuming changes.

2021-05-19Fix issues in pg_stat_wal.Fujii Masao
1) Previously there were both pgstat_send_wal() and pgstat_report_wal() in order to send WAL activity to the stats collector. With the former being used by wal writer, the latter by most other processes. They were a bit redundant and so this commit merges them into pgstat_send_wal() to simplify the code. 2) Previously WAL global statistics counters were calculated and then compared with zero-filled buffer in order to determine whether any WAL activity has happened since the last submission. These calculation and comparison were not cheap. This was regularly exercised even in read-only workloads. This commit fixes the issue by making some WAL activity counters directly be checked to determine if there's WAL activity stats to send. 3) Previously pgstat_report_stat() did not check if there's WAL activity stats to send as part of the "Don't expend a clock check if nothing to do" check at the top. It's probably rare to have pending WAL stats without also passing one of the other conditions, but for safely this commit changes pgstat_report_stats() so that it checks also some WAL activity counters at the top. This commit also adds the comments about the design of WAL stats.

This is an oversight from bbe0a81d, where the equivalent option exists in pg_dump. This is useful to be able to reset the compression methods cluster-wide when restoring the data based on default_toast_compression.

2021-05-15Allow compute_query_id to be set to 'auto' and make it defaultAlvaro Herrera
Allowing only on/off meant that all either all existing configuration guides would become obsolete if we disabled it by default, or that we would have to accept a performance loss in the default config if we enabled it by default. By allowing 'auto' as a middle ground, the performance cost is only paid by those who enable pg_stat_statements and similar modules. I only edited the release notes to comment-out a paragraph that is now factually wrong; further edits are probably needed to describe the related change in more detail.

2021-05-15Be more careful about barriers when releasing BackgroundWorkerSlots.Tom Lane
ForgetBackgroundWorker lacked any memory barrier at all, while BackgroundWorkerStateChange had one but unaccountably did additional manipulation of the slot after the barrier. AFAICS, the rule must be that the barrier is immediately before setting or clearing slot->in_use. It looks like back in 9.6 when ForgetBackgroundWorker was first written, there might have been some case for not needing a barrier there, but I'm not very convinced of that --- the fact that the load of bgw_notify_pid is in the caller doesn't seem to guarantee no memory ordering problem. So patch 9.6 too. It's likely that this doesn't fix any observable bug on Intel hardware, but machines with weaker memory ordering rules could have problems here.

2021-05-14Harden nbtree deduplication posting split code.Peter Geoghegan
Add a defensive "can't happen" error to code that handles nbtree posting list splits (promote an existing assertion). This avoids a segfault in the event of an insertion of a newitem that is somehow identical to an existing non-pivot tuple in the index. An nbtree index should never have two index tuples with identical TIDs. This scenario is not particular unlikely in the event of any kind of corruption that leaves the index in an inconsistent state relative to the heap relation that is indexed. There are two known reports of preventable hard crashes. Doing nothing seems unacceptable given the general expectation that nbtree will cope reasonably well with corrupt data.
