2017-11-11Make connect/test1 independent of localhost IPv6.Noah Misch
Since commit 868898739a8da9ab74c105b8349b7b5c711f265a, it has assumed "localhost" resolves to both ::1 and 127.0.0.1. We gain nothing from that assumption, and it does not hold in a default installation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).
2017-11-11Fix previous commit's test, for non-UTF8 databases with non-XML builds.Noah Misch

2017-11-11Ignore XML declaration in xpath_internal(), for UTF8 databases.Noah Misch
When a value contained an XML declaration naming some other encoding, this function interpreted UTF8 bytes as the named encoding, yielding mojibake. xml_parse() already has similar logic. This would be necessary but not sufficient for non-UTF8 databases, so preserve behavior there until the xpath facility can support such databases comprehensively. Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions). Pavel Stehule and Noah Misch Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFj8pRC-dM=tT=QkGi+Achkm+gwPmjyOayGuUfXVumCxkDgYWg@mail.gmail.com

2017-11-09Add hash partitioning.Robert Haas
Hash partitioning is useful when you want to partition a growing data set evenly. This can be useful to keep table sizes reasonable, which makes maintenance operations such as VACUUM faster, or to enable partition-wise join. At present, we still depend on constraint exclusion for partitioning pruning, and the shape of the partition constraints for hash partitioning is such that that doesn't work. Work is underway to fix that, which should both improve performance and make partitioning pruning work with hash partitioning. Amul Sul, reviewed and tested by Dilip Kumar, Ashutosh Bapat, Yugo Nagata, Rajkumar Raghuwanshi, Jesper Pedersen, and by me. A few final tweaks also by me.

2017-11-09Refactor permissions checks for large objects.Tom Lane
Up to now, ACL checks for large objects happened at the level of the SQL-callable functions, which led to CVE-2017-7548 because of a missing check. Push them down to be enforced in inv_api.c as much as possible, in hopes of preventing future bugs. This does have the effect of moving read and write permission errors to happen at lo_open time not loread or lowrite time, but that seems acceptable.

2017-11-09Restrict lo_import()/lo_export() via SQL permissions not hard-wired checks.Tom Lane
While it's generally unwise to give permissions on these functions to anyone but a superuser, we've been moving away from hard-wired permission checks inside functions in favor of using the SQL permission system to control access. Bring lo_import() and lo_export() into compliance with that approach. In particular, this removes the manual configuration option ALLOW_DANGEROUS_LO_FUNCTIONS. That dates back to 1999 (commit 4cd4a54c8); it's unlikely anyone has used it in many years. Moreover, if you really want such behavior, now you can get it with GRANT ... TO PUBLIC instead.

2017-11-08Fix two violations of the ResourceOwnerEnlarge/Remember protocol.Tom Lane
The point of having separate ResourceOwnerEnlargeFoo and ResourceOwnerRememberFoo functions is so that resource allocation can happen in between. Doing it in some other order is just wrong. OpenTemporaryFile() did open(), enlarge, remember, which would leak the open file if the enlarge step ran out of memory. Because fd.c has its own layer of resource-remembering, the consequences look like they'd be limited to an intratransaction FD leak, but it's still not good. IncrBufferRefCount() did enlarge, remember, incr-refcount, which would blow up if the incr-refcount step ever failed. It was safe enough when written, but since the introduction of PrivateRefCountHash, I think the assumption that no error could happen there is pretty shaky. The odds of real problems from either bug are probably small, but still, back-patch to supported branches. Thomas Munro and Tom Lane, per a comment from Andres Freund
2017-11-08Change TRUE/FALSE to true/falsePeter Eisentraut
The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used in some files/modules.

There doesn't seem to be any good reason to do the filling of the itemidbase[] array separately from the first traversal of the pointers. It's certainly not a win if there are any line pointers with storage, and even if there aren't, this change doesn't insert code into the part of the first loop that will be traversed in that case.

2017-11-03Flag index metapages as standard-format in xlog.c calls.Tom Lane
btree, hash, and bloom indexes all set up their metapages in standard format (that is, with pd_lower and pd_upper correctly delimiting the unused area); but they mostly didn't inform the xlog routines of this. When calling log_newpage[_buffer], this is bad because it loses the opportunity to compress unused data out of the WAL record. When calling XLogRegisterBuffer, it's not such a performance problem because all of these call sites also use REGBUF_WILL_INIT, preventing an FPI image from being written. But it's still a good idea to provide the flag when relevant, because that aids WAL consistency checking. This completes the project of getting all the in-core index AMs to handle their metapage WAL operations similarly.

2017-11-03Don't reset additional columns on subscriber to NULL on UPDATEPeter Eisentraut

2017-11-03Fix BRIN summarization concurrent with extensionAlvaro Herrera
If a process is extending a table concurrently with some BRIN summarization process, it is possible for the latter to miss pages added by the former because the number of pages is computed ahead of time. Fix by determining a fresh relation size after inserting the placeholder tuple: any process that further extends the table concurrently will update the placeholder tuple, while previous pages will be processed by the heap scan.

2017-11-02Set the metapage's pd_lower correctly in brin, gin, and spgist indexes.Tom Lane
Previously, these index types left the pd_lower field set to the default SizeOfPageHeaderData, which is really a lie because it ought to point past whatever space is being used for metadata. The coding accidentally failed to fail because we never told xlog.c that the metapage is of standard format --- but that's not very good, because it impedes WAL consistency checking, and in some cases prevents compression of full-page images. To fix, ensure that we set pd_lower correctly, not only when creating a metapage but whenever we write it out (these apparently redundant steps are needed to cope with pg_upgrade'd indexes that don't yet contain the right value). This allows telling xlog.c that the page is of standard format. The WAL consistency check mask functions are made to mask only if pd_lower appears valid, which I think is likely unnecessary complication, since any metapage appearing in a v11 WAL stream should contain valid pd_lower. But it doesn't cost much to be paranoid. Amit Langote, reviewed by Michael Paquier and Amit Kapila Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/0d273805-0e9e-ec1a-cb84-d4da400b8f85@lab.ntt.co.jp

2017-11-02Fix corner-case errors in brin_doupdate().Tom Lane
In some cases the BRIN code releases lock on an index page, and later re-acquires lock and tries to check that the tuple it was working on is still there. That check was a couple bricks shy of a load. It didn't consider that the page might have turned into a "revmap" page. (The samepage code path doesn't call brin_getinsertbuffer(), so it isn't protected by the checks for revmap status there.) It also didn't check whether the tuple offset was now off the end of the linepointer array. Since commit 24992c6db the latter case is pretty common, but at least in principle it could have occurred before that. The net result is that concurrent updates of a BRIN index could fail with errors like "invalid index offnum" or "inconsistent range map". Per report from Tomas Vondra. Back-patch to 9.5, since this code is substantially the same in all versions containing BRIN. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/10d2b9f9-f427-03b8-8ad9-6af4ecacbee9@2ndquadrant.com

2017-11-02Teach planner to account for HAVING quals in aggregation plan nodes.Tom Lane
For some reason, we have never accounted for either the evaluation cost or the selectivity of filter conditions attached to Agg and Group nodes (which, in practice, are always conditions from a HAVING clause). Applying our regular selectivity logic to post-grouping conditions is a bit bogus, but it's surely better than taking the selectivity as 1.0. Perhaps someday the extended-statistics mechanism can be taught to provide statistics that would help us in getting non-default estimates here. Per a gripe from Benjamin Coutu. This is surely a bug fix, but I'm hesitant to back-patch because of the prospect of destabilizing existing plan choices. Given that it took us this long to notice the bug, it's probably not hurting too many people in the field. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20968.1509486337@sss.pgh.pa.us

2017-11-01Allow bitmap scans to operate as index-only scans when possible.Tom Lane
If we don't have to return any columns from heap tuples, and there's no need to recheck qual conditions, and the heap page is all-visible, then we can skip fetching the heap page altogether. Skip prefetching pages too, when possible, on the assumption that the recheck flag will remain the same from one page to the next. While that assumption is hardly bulletproof, it seems like a good bet most of the time, and better than prefetching pages we don't need. This commit installs the executor infrastructure, but doesn't change any planner cost estimates, thus possibly causing bitmap scans to not be chosen in cases where this change renders them the best choice. I (tgl) am not entirely convinced that we need to account for this behavior in the planner, because I think typically the bitmap scan would get chosen anyway if it's the best bet. In any case the submitted patch took way too many shortcuts, resulting in too many clearly-bad choices, to be committable.

2017-10-31Fix underqualified cast-target type names in pg_dump and psql queries.Tom Lane
Queries running with some non-pg_catalog schema frontmost in their search path need to be careful to schema-qualify type names that should be sought in pg_catalog. Vitaly Burovoy reported an oversight of this sort in pg_dump's dumpSequence, and grepping detected another one in psql's describeOneTableDetails, both introduced by sequence-related changes in v10. In pg_dump, we can fix things by removing the cast altogether, since it doesn't really matter what data types are reported for these query result columns. Likewise in psql, the query seemed to be working unduly hard to get a result that's guaranteed to be exactly 'bigint'. I also changed a couple of occurrences of "::char" similarly. These are not bugs, since "char" is a typename keyword and not subject to search_path rules, but it seems better to use uniform style.
