2016-03-05logical decoding: Fix handling of large old tuples with replica identity full.Andres Freund
When decoding the old version of an UPDATE or DELETE change, and if that tuple was bigger than MaxHeapTupleSize, we either Assert'ed out, or failed in more subtle ways in non-assert builds. Normally individual tuples aren't bigger than MaxHeapTupleSize, with big datums toasted. But that's not the case for the old version of a tuple for logical decoding; the replica identity is logged as one piece. With the default replica identity btree limits that to small tuples, but that's not the case for FULL. Change the tuple buffer infrastructure to separate allocate over-large tuples, instead of always going through the slab cache. This unfortunately requires changing the ReorderBufferTupleBuf definition, we need to store the allocated size someplace. To avoid requiring output plugins to recompile, don't store HeapTupleHeaderData directly after HeapTupleData, but point to it via t_data; that leaves rooms for the allocated size. As there's no reason for an output plugin to look at ReorderBufferTupleBuf->t_data.header, remove the field. It was just a minor convenience having it directly accessible.

2016-03-05logical decoding: old/newtuple in spooled UPDATE changes was switched around.Andres Freund
Somehow I managed to flip the order of restoring old & new tuples when de-spooling a change in a large transaction from disk. This happens to only take effect when a change is spooled to disk which has old/new versions of the tuple. That only is the case for UPDATEs where he primary key changed or where replica identity is changed to FULL. The tests didn't catch this because either spooled updates, or updates that changed primary keys, were tested; not both at the same time. Found while adding tests for the following commit.

2016-03-05logical decoding: Tell reorderbuffer about all xids.Andres Freund
Logical decoding's reorderbuffer keeps transactions in an LSN ordered list for efficiency. To make that's efficiently possible upper-level xids are forced to be logged before nested subtransaction xids. That only works though if these records are all looked at: Unfortunately we didn't do so for e.g. row level locks, which are otherwise uninteresting for logical decoding. This could lead to errors like: "ERROR: subxact logged without previous toplevel record". It's not sufficient to just look at row locking records, the xid could appear first due to a lot of other types of records (which will trigger the transaction to be marked logged with MarkCurrentTransactionIdLoggedIfAny). So invent infrastructure to tell reorderbuffer about xids seen, when they'd otherwise not pass through reorderbuffer.c.

2016-03-05Expose control file data via SQL accessible functions.Joe Conway
Add four new SQL accessible functions: pg_control_system(), pg_control_checkpoint(), pg_control_recovery(), and pg_control_init() which expose a subset of the control file data. Along the way move the code to read and validate the control file to src/common, where it can be shared by the new backend functions and the original pg_controldata frontend program. Patch by me, significant input, testing, and review by Michael Paquier.
2016-03-06Ignore recovery_min_apply_delay until recovery has reached consistent stateFujii Masao
Previously recovery_min_apply_delay was applied even before recovery had reached consistency. This could cause us to wait a long time unexpectedly for read-only connections to be allowed. It's problematic because the standby was useless during that wait time. This patch changes recovery_min_apply_delay so that it's applied once the database has reached the consistent state. That is, even if the delay is set, the standby tries to replay WAL records as fast as possible until it has reached consistency.

2016-03-04Make stats regression test robust in the face of parallel query.Tom Lane
Historically, the wait_for_stats() function in this test has simply checked for a report of an indexscan on tenk2, corresponding to the last command issued before we expect stats updates to appear. However, with parallel query that indexscan could be done by a parallel worker that will emit its stats counters to the collector before the session's main backend does (a full second before, in fact, thanks to the "pg_sleep(1.0)" added by commit 957d08c81f9cc277). That leaves a sizable window in which an autovacuum-triggered write of the stats files would present a state in which the indexscan on tenk2 appears to have been done, but none of the write updates performed by the test have been. This is evidently the explanation for intermittent failures seen by me and on buildfarm member mandrill. To fix, we should check separately for both the tenk2 seqscan and indexscan counts, since those might be reported by different processes that could be delayed arbitrarily on an overloaded test machine. And we need to check for at least one update-related count. If we ever allow parallel workers to do writes, this will get even more complicated ... but in view of all the other hard problems that will entail, I don't feel a need to solve this one today. Per research by Rahila Syed and myself; part of this patch is Rahila's.

2016-03-03Rework PostgresNode's psql methodAlvaro Herrera
This makes the psql() method much more capable: it captures both stdout and stderr; it now returns the psql exit code rather than stdout; a timeout can now be specified, as can ON_ERROR_STOP behavior; it gained a new "on_error_die" (defaulting to off) parameter to raise an exception if there's any problem. Finally, additional parameters to psql can be passed if there's need for further tweaking. For convenience, a new safe_psql() method retains much of the old behavior of psql(), except that it uses on_error_die on, so that problems like syntax errors in SQL commands can be detected more easily. Many existing TAP test files now use safe_psql, which is what is really wanted. A couple of ->psql() calls are now added in the commit_ts tests, which verify that the right thing is happening on certain errors. Some ->command_fails() calls in recovery tests that were verifying that psql failed also became ->psql() calls now. Author: Craig Ringer. Some tweaks by Álvaro Herrera Reviewed-By: Michaël Paquier

Fix that, and the wrong type of the new commit_time variable.

2016-03-02Fix json_to_record() bug with nested objects.Tom Lane
A thinko concerning nesting depth caused json_to_record() to produce bogus output if a field of its input object contained a sub-object with a field name matching one of the requested output column names. Per bug #13996 from Johann Visagie. I added a regression test case based on his example, plus parallel tests for json_to_recordset, jsonb_to_record, jsonb_to_recordset. The latter three do not exhibit the same bug (which suggests that we may be missing some opportunities to share code...) but testing seems like a good idea in any case. Back-patch to 9.4 where these functions were introduced.

We've hit this problem before; solve it in the same way as before, namely by installing stub functions that have the expected signature and just invoke the correct function. Per report from Jeff Janes. (Someday we ought to stop supporting contrib/tsearch2, but I'm not sure today is that day.)

2016-03-02Fix PL/Tcl's encoding conversion logic.Tom Lane
PL/Tcl appears to contain logic to convert strings between the database encoding and UTF8, which is the only encoding modern Tcl will deal with. However, that code has been disabled since commit 034895125d648b86, which made it "#if defined(UNICODE_CONVERSION)" and neglected to provide any way for that symbol to become defined. That might have been all right back in 2001, but these days we take a dim view of allowing strings with incorrect encoding into the database. Remove the conditional compilation, fix warnings about signed/unsigned char conversions, clean up assorted places that didn't bother with conversions. (Notably, there were lots of assumptions that database table and field names didn't need conversion...) Add a regression test based on plpython_unicode. It's not terribly thorough, but better than no test at all.
2016-03-02Make PL/Tcl require Tcl 8.4 or later.Tom Lane
As of commit 287822068246a6ae30bb2c7191de727672ae6328, PL/Tcl will not compile against pre-8.0 Tcl, whereas it used to work (more or less anyway) with quite prehistoric versions. As long as we're moving these goalposts, let's reinstall them at someplace that has some thought behind it. This commit sets the minimum allowed Tcl version at 8.4, and rips out some bits of compatibility cruft that are in consequence no longer needed. Reasons for requiring 8.4 include: * 8.4 was released in 2002; there seems little reason to believe that anyone would want to use older versions with Postgres 9.6+. * We have no buildfarm members testing anything older than 8.4, and thus no way to know if it's broken. * We need at least 8.1 to allow enforcement of database encoding security (8.1 standardized Tcl on using UTF8 internally, before that it was pretty unpredictable). * Some versions between 8.1 and 8.4 allowed the backend to become multithreaded, which is disastrous. We need at least 8.4 to be able to disable the Tcl notifier subsystem to prevent that. A small side benefit is that we can make the code more readable by doing s/CONST84/const/g.
2016-03-02Convert PL/Tcl to use Tcl's "object" interfaces.Tom Lane
The original implementation of Tcl was all strings, but they improved performance significantly by introducing typed "objects" (integers, lists, code, etc). It's past time we made use of that; that happened in Tcl 8.0 which was released in 1997. This patch also modernizes some of the error-reporting code, which may cause small changes in the spelling of complaints about bad calls to PL/Tcl-provided commands.

2016-03-01Change the format of the VM fork to add a second bit per page.Robert Haas
The new bit indicates whether every tuple on the page is already frozen. It is cleared only when the all-visible bit is cleared, and it can be set only when we vacuum a page and find that every tuple on that page is both visible to every transaction and in no need of any future vacuuming. A future commit will use this new bit to optimize away full-table scans that would otherwise be triggered by XID wraparound considerations. A page which is merely all-visible must still be scanned in that case, but a page which is all-frozen need not be. This commit does not attempt that optimization, although that optimization is the goal here. It seems better to get the basic infrastructure in place first. Per discussion, it's very desirable for pg_upgrade to automatically migrate existing VM forks from the old format to the new format. That, too, will be handled in a follow-on patch.

2016-03-01Add more tests for commit_timestamp featureAlvaro Herrera
These tests verify that 1) WAL replay preserves the stored value, 2) a streaming standby server replays the value obtained from the master, and 3) the behavior is sensible in the face of repeated configuration changes. One annoyance is that tmp_check/ subdir from the TAP tests is clobbered when the pg_regress test runs in the same subdirectory. This is bothersome but not too terrible a problem, since the pg_regress test is not run anyway if the TAP tests fail (unless "make -k" is used). I had these tests around since commit 69e7235c93e2; add them now that we have the recovery test framework in place.

2016-02-29Improve error message for rejecting RETURNING clauses with dropped columns.Tom Lane
This error message was written with only ON SELECT rules in mind, but since then we also made RETURNING-clause targetlists go through the same logic. This means that you got a rather off-topic error message if you tried to add a rule with RETURNING to a table having dropped columns. Ideally we'd just support that, but some preliminary investigation says that it might be a significant amount of work. Seeing that Nicklas Avén's complaint is the first one we've gotten about this in the ten years or so that the code's been like that, I'm unwilling to put much time into it. Instead, improve the error report by issuing a different message for RETURNING cases, and revise the associated comment based on this investigation. Discussion: 1456176604.17219.9.camel@jordogskog.no

When converting an RTE with securityQuals into a security barrier subquery RTE, ensure that the Vars in the new subquery's targetlist all have varlevelsup = 0 so that they correctly refer to the underlying base relation being wrapped. The original code was creating new Vars by copying them from existing Vars referencing the base relation found elsewhere in the query, but failed to account for the fact that such Vars could come from sublink subqueries, and hence have varlevelsup > 0. In practice it looks like this could only happen with nested security barrier views, where the outer view has a WHERE clause containing a correlated subquery, due to the order in which the Vars are processed.
