2024-09-05Prevent mis-encoding of "trailing junk after numeric literal" errors.Tom Lane
Since commit 2549f0661, we reject an identifier immediately following a numeric literal (without separating whitespace), because that risks ambiguity with hex/octal/binary integers. However, that patch used token patterns like "{integer}{ident_start}", which is problematic because {ident_start} matches only a single byte. If the first character after the integer is a multibyte character, this ends up with flex reporting an error message that includes a partial multibyte character. That can cause assorted bad-encoding problems downstream, both in the report to the client and in the postmaster log file. To fix, use {identifier} not {ident_start} in the "junk" token patterns, so that they will match complete multibyte characters. This seems generally better user experience quite aside from the encoding problem: for "123abc" the error message will now say that the error appeared at or near "123abc" instead of "123a". While at it, add some commentary about why these patterns exist and how they work. Report and patch by Karina Litskevich; review by Pavel Borisov. Back-patch to v15 where the problem came in.

2024-09-04Avoid installcheck failure in TAP tests using injection_pointsMichael Paquier
These tests depend on the test module injection_points to be installed, but it may not be available as the contents of src/test/modules/ are not installed by default. This commit adds a workaround based on a scan of pg_available_extensions to check if the extension is available, skipping the test if it is not. This allows installcheck to work transparently.

2024-08-31Fix unfairness in all-cached parallel seq scan.Thomas Munro
Commit b5a9b18c introduced block streaming infrastructure with a special fast path for all-cached scans, and commit b7b0f3f2 connected the infrastructure up to sequential scans. One of the fast path micro-optimizations had an unintended consequence: it interfered with parallel sequential scan's block range allocator (from commit 56788d21), which has its own ramp-up and ramp-down algorithm when handing out groups of pages to workers. A scan of an all-cached table could give extra blocks to one worker, when others had finished. In some plans (probably already very bad plans, such as the one reported by Alexander), the unfairness could be magnified. An internal buffer of 16 block numbers is removed, keeping just a single block buffer for technical reasons. Back-patch to 17.

2024-08-30Avoid inserting PlaceHolderVars in cases where pre-v16 PG did not.Tom Lane
Commit 2489d76c4 removed some logic from pullup_replace_vars() that avoided wrapping a PlaceHolderVar around a pulled-up subquery output expression if the expression could be proven to go to NULL anyway (because it contained Vars or PHVs of the pulled-up relation and did not contain non-strict constructs). But removing that logic turns out to cause performance regressions in some cases, because the extra PHV blocks subexpression folding, and will do so even if outer-join reduction later turns it into a no-op with no phnullingrels bits. This can for example prevent an expression from being matched to an index. The reason for always adding a PHV was to ensure we had someplace to put the varnullingrels marker bits of the Var being replaced. However, it turns out we can optimize in exactly the same cases that the previous code did, because we can instead attach the needed varnullingrels bits to the contained Var(s)/PHV(s). This is not a complete solution --- it would be even better if we could remove PHVs after reducing them to no-ops. It doesn't look practical to back-patch such an improvement, but this change seems safe and at least gets rid of the performance-regression cases. Per complaint from Nikhil Raj. Back-patch to v16 where the problem appeared. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAG1ps1xvnTZceKK24OUfMKLPvDP2vjT-d+F2AOCWbw_v3KeEgg@mail.gmail.com
2024-08-29Fix mis-deparsing of ORDER BY lists when there is a name conflict.Tom Lane
If an ORDER BY item in SELECT is a bare identifier, the parser first seeks it as an output column name of the SELECT (for SQL92 compatibility). However, ruleutils.c is expecting the SQL99 interpretation where such a name is an input column name. So it's possible to produce an incorrect display of a view in the (admittedly pretty ill-advised) case where some other column is renamed in the SELECT output list to match an ORDER BY column. This can be fixed by table-qualifying such names in the dumped view text. To avoid cluttering less-ill-advised queries, we'd like to do so only when there's an actual name conflict. That requires passing the current get_query_def call's resultDesc parameter down to get_variable, so that it can determine what the output column names are. In hopes of reducing rather than increasing notational clutter in ruleutils.c, I moved that value into the deparse_context struct and removed it from the parameter lists of get_query_def's other subroutines. I made a few other cosmetic changes while at it: * Likewise move the colNamesVisible parameter into deparse_context. * Rename deparse_context's windowTList field to targetList, since it's no longer used only in connection with WINDOW clauses. * Replace the special_exprkind field with a bool inGroupBy, since that was all it was being used for, and the apparent flexibility of storing a ParseExprKind proved to be illusory. (We need a separate varInOrderBy field to make this patch work.) * Remove useless save/restore logic in get_select_query_def. In principle, this bug is quite old. However, it seems unreachable before 1b4d280ea, because before that the presence of "new" and "old" entries in a view's rangetable caused us to always table-qualify every Var reference in dumped views. Hence, back-patch to v16 where that came in. Per bug #18589 from Quynh Tran. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18589-70091cb81db1a3f1@postgresql.org

2024-08-19Fix DROP DATABASE for databases with many ACLsTomas Vondra
Commit c66a7d75e652 modified DROP DATABASE so that if interrupted, the database is known to be in an invalid state and can only be dropped. This is done by setting a flag using an in-place update, so that it's not lost in case of rollback. For databases with many ACLs, this may however fail like this: ERROR: wrong tuple length This happens because with many ACLs, the pg_database.datacl attribute gets TOASTed. The dropdb() code reads the tuple from the syscache, which means it's detoasted. But the in-place update expects the tuple length to match the on-disk tuple.

2024-08-12Fix creation of partition descriptor during concurrent detach+dropAlvaro Herrera
If a partition undergoes DETACH CONCURRENTLY immediately followed by DROP, this could cause a problem for a concurrent transaction recomputing the partition descriptor when running a prepared statement, because it tries to dereference a pointer to a tuple that's not found in a catalog scan. The existing retry logic added in commit dbca3469ebf8 is sufficient to cope with the overall problem, provided we don't try to dereference a non-existant heap tuple. Arguably, the code in RelationBuildPartitionDesc() has been wrong all along, since no check was added in commit 898e5e3290a7 against receiving a NULL tuple from the catalog scan; that bug has only become user-visible with DETACH CONCURRENTLY which was added in branch 14. Therefore, even though there's no known mechanism to cause a crash because of this, backpatch the addition of such a check to all supported branches. In branches prior to 14, this would cause the code to fail with a "missing relpartbound for relation XYZ" error instead of crashing; that's okay, because there are no reports of such behavior anyway.

2024-08-10Allow adjusting session_authorization and role in parallel workers.Tom Lane
The code intends to allow GUCs to be set within parallel workers via function SET clauses, but not otherwise. However, doing so fails for "session_authorization" and "role", because the assign hooks for those attempt to set the subsidiary "is_superuser" GUC, and that call falls foul of the "not otherwise" prohibition. We can't switch to using GUC_ACTION_SAVE for this, so instead add a new GUC variable flag GUC_ALLOW_IN_PARALLEL to mark is_superuser as being safe to set anyway. (This is okay because is_superuser has context PGC_INTERNAL and thus only hard-wired calls can change it. We'd need more thought before applying the flag to other GUCs; but maybe there are other use-cases.) This isn't the prettiest fix perhaps, but other alternatives we thought of would be much more invasive. While here, correct a thinko in commit 059de3ca4: when rejecting a GUC setting within a parallel worker, we should return 0 not -1 if the ereport doesn't longjmp. (This seems to have no consequences right now because no caller cares, but it's inconsistent.) Improve the comments to try to forestall future confusion of the same kind. Despite the lack of field complaints, this seems worth back-patching. Thanks to Nathan Bossart for the idea to invent a new flag, and for review.

Trying to attach a table as a partition which is already on the referenced side of a foreign key on the partitioned table that it is being attached to, leads to strange behavior: we try to clone the foreign key from the parent to the partition, but this new FK points to the partition itself, and the mix of pg_constraint rows and triggers doesn't behave well. Rather than trying to untangle the mess (which might be possible given sufficient time), I opted to forbid the ATTACH. This doesn't seem a problematic restriction, given that we already fail to create the foreign key if you do it the other way around, that is, having the partition first and the FK second. Backpatch to all supported branches.

2024-08-08Refactor error messages to reduce duplicationAlvaro Herrera
I also took the liberty of changing errmsg("COPY DEFAULT only available using COPY FROM") to errmsg("COPY %s cannot be used with %s", "DEFAULT", "COPY TO") because the original wording is unlike all other messages that indicate option incompatibility. This message was added by commit 9f8377f7a279 (16-era), in whose development thread there was no discussion on this point. Backpatch to 17.
2024-08-08Fix pg_rewind debug output to print the source timeline historyHeikki Linnakangas
getTimelineHistory() is called twice, to read the source and the target timeline history files. However, the loop to print the file with the --debug option used the wrong variable when dealing with the source. As a result, the source's history was always printed as empty. Spotted while debugging bug #18575, but this does not fix that bug, just the debugging output. Backpatch to all supported versions.

2024-08-08Revert ECPG's use of pnstrdup()Peter Eisentraut
Commit 0b9466fce added a dependency on fe_memutils' pnstrdup() inside informix.c. This adds an exit() path in a library, which we don't want. (Unlike libpq, the ecpg libraries don't have an automated check for that, but it makes sense to keep them to a similar standard.) The ecpg code can already handle failure results from the *strdup() call by itself.

2024-08-07Fix edge case in plpgsql's make_callstmt_target().Tom Lane
If the plancache entry for the CALL statement is already stale, it's possible for us to fetch an old procedure OID out of it, and then fail with "cache lookup failed for function NNN". In ordinary usage this never happens because make_callstmt_target is called just once immediately after building the plancache entry. It can be forced however by setting up an erroneous CALL (that causes make_callstmt_target itself to report an error), then dropping/recreating the target procedure, then repeating the erroneous CALL. To fix, use SPI_plan_get_cached_plan() to fetch the plancache's plan, rather than assuming we can use SPI_plan_get_plan_sources(). This shouldn't add any noticeable overhead in the normal case, and in the stale-plan case we'd have had to replan anyway a little further down. The other callers of SPI_plan_get_plan_sources() seem OK, because either they don't need up-to-date plans or they know that the query was just (re) planned. But add some commentary in hopes of not falling into this trap again. Per bug #18574 from Song Hongyu. Back-patch to v14 where this coding was introduced. (Older branches have comparable code, but it's run after any required replanning, so there's no issue.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18574-2ce7ba3249221389@postgresql.org
2024-08-07Refactor/reword some error messages to avoid duplicatesAlvaro Herrera
Also, remove brackets around "EMPTY [ ARRAY ]". An error message is not the place to state that a keyword is optional. Backpatch to 17.
