cash_out failed to handle multiple-byte thousands separators, as per bug
#6277 from Alexander Law. In addition, cash_in didn't handle that either,
nor could it handle multiple-byte positive_sign. Both routines failed to
support multiple-byte mon_decimal_point, which I did not think was worth
changing, but at least now they check for the possibility and fall back to
using '.' rather than emitting invalid output. Also, make cash_in handle
trailing negative signs, which formerly it would reject. Since cash_out
generates trailing negative signs whenever the locale tells it to, this
last omission represents a fail-to-reload-dumped-data bug. IMO that
justifies patching this all the way back.

The recent unpleasantness with copyrights has accelerated a move that
was already in planning.

When a foreign-key constraint references another column of the same table,
row updates will queue both the PK's ON UPDATE action and the FK's CHECK
action in the same event. The ON UPDATE action must execute first, else
the CHECK will check a non-final state of the row and possibly throw an
inappropriate error, as seen in bug #6268 from Roman Lytovchenko.
Now, the firing order of multiple triggers for the same event is determined
by the sort order of their pg_trigger.tgnames, and the auto-generated names
we use for FK triggers are "RI_ConstraintTrigger_NNNN" where NNNN is the
trigger OID. So most of the time the firing order is the same as creation
order, and so rearranging the creation order fixes it.
This patch will fail to fix the problem if the OID counter wraps around or
adds a decimal digit (eg, from 99999 to 100000) while we are creating the
triggers for an FK constraint. Given the small odds of that, and the low
usage of self-referential FKs, we'll live with that solution in the back
branches. A better fix is to change the auto-generated names for FK
triggers, but it seems unwise to do that in stable branches because there
may be client code that depends on the naming convention. We'll fix it
that way in HEAD in a separate patch.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this bug has existed for a long
time.

The uniqueness condition might fail to hold intra-transaction, and assuming
it does can give incorrect query results. Per report from Marti Raudsepp,
though this is not his proposed patch.
Back-patch to 9.0, where both these features were introduced. In the
released branches, add the new IndexOptInfo field to the end of the struct,
to try to minimize ABI breakage for third-party code that may be examining
that struct.

The heuristic for when to dump a cast failed for a cast between table
rowtypes, as reported by Frédéric Rejol. Fix it by setting
the "dump" flag for such a type the same way as the flag is set for the
underlying table or base type. This won't result in the auto-generated
type appearing in the output, since setting its objType to DO_DUMMY_TYPE
unconditionally suppresses that. But it will result in dumpCast doing what
was intended.
Back-patch to 8.3. The 8.2 code is rather different in this area, and it
doesn't seem worth any risk to fix a corner case that nobody has stumbled
on before.

This view was being insufficiently careful about matching the FK constraint
to the depended-on primary or unique key constraint. That could result in
failure to show an FK constraint at all, or showing it multiple times, or
claiming that it depended on a different constraint than the one it really
does. Fix by joining via pg_depend to ensure that we find only the correct
dependency.
Back-patch, but don't bump catversion because we can't force initdb in back
branches. The next minor-version release notes should explain that if you
need to fix this in an existing installation, you can drop the
information_schema schema then re-create it by sourcing
$SHAREDIR/information_schema.sql in each database (as a superuser of
course).

transform_null_equals is only supposed to affect "foo = NULL" expressions
given directly by the user, not the internal "foo = NULL" expression
generated from CASE-WHEN.
This fixes bug #6242, reported by Sergey. Backpatch to all supported

This oversight meant that on Windows, the pg_settings view would not
display source file or line number information for values coming from
postgresql.conf, unless the backend had received a SIGHUP since starting.
In passing, also make the error detection in read_nondefault_variables a
tad more thorough, and fix it to not lose precision on float GUCs (these
changes are already in HEAD as of my previous commit).

Thus, an object referenced in a default expression could be dropped while
the function remained present. This was unaccountably missed in the
original patch to add default parameters for functions. Reported by
Pavel Stehule.

We were mapping "Central America Standard Time" to "CST6CDT", which seems
entirely wrong, because according to the Olson timezone database noplace
in Central America observes daylight savings time on any regular basis ---
and certainly not according to the USA DST rules that are implied by
"CST6CDT". (Mexico is an exception, but they can be disregarded since
they have a separate timezone name in Windows.) So, map this zone name to
plain "CST6", which will provide a fixed UTC offset.
As written, this patch will also result in mapping "Central America
Daylight Time" to CST6. I considered hacking things so that would still
map to CST6CDT, but it seems it would confuse win32tzlist.pl to put those
two names in separate entries. Since there's little evidence that any
such zone name is used in the wild, much less that CST6CDT would be a good
match for it, I'm not too worried about what we do with it.
Per complaint from Pratik Chirania.

This oversight led to a massive memory leak --- upwards of 10KB per tuple
--- during creation-time verification of an exclusion constraint based on a
GIST index. In most other scenarios it'd just be a leak of 10KB that would
be recovered at end of query, so not too significant; though perhaps the
leak would be noticeable in a situation where a GIST index was being used
in a nestloop inner indexscan. In any case, it's a real leak of long
standing, so patch all supported branches. Per report from Harald Fuchs.

Make it return NULL for the option_value, instead.

Trailing-zero stripping applied by the FM specifier could strip zeroes
to the left of the decimal point, for a format with no digit positions
after the decimal point (such as "FM999.").
Reported and diagnosed by Marti Raudsepp, though I didn't use his patch.

The code in shift_jis_20042euc_jis_2004() would fetch two bytes even when
only one remained in the string. Since conversion functions aren't
supposed to assume null-terminated input, this poses a small risk of
fetching past the end of memory and incurring SIGSEGV. No such crash has
been identified in the field, but we've certainly seen the equivalent
happen in other code paths, so patch this one all the way back.
Report and patch by Noah Misch.

Since the last couple of columns of pg_type are often NULL,
sizeof(FormData_pg_type) can be an overestimate of the actual size of the
tuple data part. Therefore memcpy'ing that much out of the catalog cache,
as analyze.c was doing, poses a small risk of copying past the end of
memory and incurring SIGSEGV. No such crash has been identified in the
field, but we've certainly seen the equivalent happen in other code paths,
so patch this one all the way back.
Per valgrind testing by Noah Misch, though this is not his proposed patch.
I chose to use SearchSysCacheCopy1 rather than inventing special-purpose
infrastructure for copying only the minimal part of a pg_type tuple.

The $(PERL) macro will be set by configure if it finds perl at all,
but $(perl_privlibexp) isn't configured unless you said --with-perl.
This results in confusing error messages if someone cd's into
src/pl/plperl and tries to build there despite the configure omission,
as reported by Tomas Vondra in bug #6198. Add simple checks to
provide a more useful report, while not disabling other use of the
makefile such as "make clean".
Back-patch to 9.0, which is as far as the patch applies easily.

">" should be ">>". This typo results in failure to use all of the bits
of the provided seed.
This might rise to the level of a security bug if we were relying on
srand48 for any security-critical purposes, but we are not --- in fact,
it's not used at all unless the platform lacks srandom(), which is
improbable. Even on such a platform the exposure seems minimal.

Examination of examples provided by Mark Kirkwood and others has convinced
me that actually commit 7f3eba30c9d622d1981b1368f2d79ba0999cdff2 was quite
a few bricks shy of a load. The useful part of that patch was clamping
ndistinct for the inner side of a semi or anti join, and the reason why
that's needed is that it's the only way that restriction clauses
eliminating rows from the inner relation can affect the estimated size of
the join result. I had not clearly understood why the clamping was
appropriate, and so mis-extrapolated to conclude that we should clamp
ndistinct for the outer side too, as well as for both sides of regular
joins. These latter actions were all wrong, and are reverted with this
patch. In addition, the clamping logic is now made to affect the behavior
of both paths in eqjoinsel_semi, with or without MCV lists to compare.
When we have MCVs, we suppose that the most common values are the ones
that are most likely to survive the decimation resulting from a lower
restriction clause, so we think of the clamping as eliminating non-MCV
values, or potentially even the least-common MCVs for the inner relation.
Back-patch to 8.4, same as previous fixes in this area.

This patch fixes an oversight in my commit
7f3eba30c9d622d1981b1368f2d79ba0999cdff2 of 2008-10-23. That patch
accounted for baserel restriction clauses that reduced the number of rows
coming out of a table (and hence the number of possibly-distinct values of
a join variable), but not for join restriction clauses that might have been
applied at a lower level of join. To account for the latter, look up the
sizes of the min_lefthand and min_righthand inputs of the current join,
and clamp with those in the same way as for the base relations.
Noted while investigating a complaint from Ben Chobot, although this in
itself doesn't seem to explain his report.
Back-patch to 8.4; previous versions used different estimation methods
for which this heuristic isn't relevant.

It is possible for VACUUM to scan no pages at all, if the visibility map
shows that all pages are all-visible. In this situation VACUUM has no new
information to report about the relation's tuple density, so it wasn't
changing pg_class.reltuples ... but it updated pg_class.relpages anyway.
That's wrong in general, since there is no evidence to justify changing the
density ratio reltuples/relpages, but it's particularly bad if the previous
state was relpages=reltuples=0, which means "unknown tuple density".
We just replaced "unknown" with "zero". ANALYZE would eventually recover
from this, but it could take a lot of repetitions of ANALYZE to do so if
the relation size is much larger than the maximum number of pages ANALYZE
will scan, because of the moving-average behavior introduced by commit
b4b6923e03f4d29636a94f6f4cc2f5cf6298b8c8.
The only known situation where we could have relpages=reltuples=0 and yet
the visibility map asserts everything's visible is immediately following
a pg_upgrade. It might be advisable for pg_upgrade to try to preserve the
relpages/reltuples statistics; but in any case this code is wrong on its
own terms, so fix it. Per report from Sergey Koposov.
Back-patch to 8.4, where the visibility map was introduced, same as the
previous change.

On closer inspection, whining in restore_toc_entries_parallel is really
much too late for any user-facing error case. The right place to do it
is at the start of RestoreArchive(), before we've done anything interesting
(suh as trying to DROP all the targets ...)
Back-patch to 8.4, where parallel restore was introduced.
|

If we are unable to do a parallel restore because the input file is stdin
or is otherwise unseekable, we should complain and fail immediately, not
after having done some of the restore. Complaining once per thread isn't
so cool either, and the messages should be worded to make it clear this is
an unsupported case not some weird race-condition bug. Per complaint from
Lonni Friedman.
Back-patch to 8.4, where parallel restore was introduced.

These days, such a response is far more likely to signify a server-side
problem, such as fork failure. Reporting "server does not support SSL"
(in sslmode=require) could be quite misleading. But the results could
be even worse in sslmode=prefer: if the problem was transient and the
next connection attempt succeeds, we'll have silently fallen back to
protocol version 2.0, possibly disabling features the user needs.
Hence, it seems best to just eliminate the assumption that backing off
to non-SSL/2.0 protocol is the way to recover from an "E" response, and
instead treat the server error the same as we would in non-SSL cases.
I tested this change against a pre-7.0 server, and found that there
was a second logic bug in the "prefer" path: the test to decide whether
to make a fallback connection attempt assumed that we must have opened
conn->ssl, which in fact does not happen given an "E" response. After
fixing that, the code does indeed connect successfully to pre-7.0,
as long as you didn't set sslmode=require. (If you did, you get
"Unsupported frontend protocol", which isn't completely off base
given the server certainly doesn't support SSL.)
Since there seems no reason to believe that pre-7.0 servers exist anymore
in the wild, back-patch to all supported branches.

There are assorted situations wherein PQconnectPoll() will abandon a
connection attempt and try again with different parameters (eg, SSL versus
not SSL). However, the code forgot to discard any pending data in libpq's
I/O buffers when doing this. In at least one case (server returns E
message during SSL negotiation), there is unread input data which bollixes
the next connection attempt. I have not checked to see whether this is
possible in the other cases where we close the socket and retry, but it
seems like a matter of good defensive programming to add explicit
buffer-flushing code to all of them.
This is one of several issues exposed by Daniel Farina's report of
misbehavior after a server-side fork failure.
This has been wrong since forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.

tsvector_concat() allocated its result workspace using the "conservative"
estimate of the sum of the two input tsvectors' sizes. Unfortunately that
wasn't so conservative as all that, because it supposed that the number of
pad bytes required could not grow. Which it can, as per test case from
Jesper Krogh, if there's a mix of lexemes with positions and lexemes
without them in the input data. The fix is to assume that we might add
a not-previously-present pad byte for each and every lexeme in the two
inputs; which really is conservative, but it doesn't seem worthwhile to
try to be more precise.
This is an aboriginal bug in tsvector_concat, so back-patch to all
versions containing it.

Per previous experimentation, backtracking slows down lexing performance
significantly (by about a third). It's usually pretty easy to avoid, just
need to have rules that accept an incomplete construct and do whatever the
lexer would have done otherwise.
The backtracking was introduced by the patch that added quoted variable
substitution. Back-patch to 9.0 where that was added.

Due to tuple-slot mismanagement, evaluation of WHEN conditions for AFTER
ROW UPDATE triggers could crash if there had been a BEFORE ROW trigger
fired for the same update. Fix by not trying to overload the use of
estate->es_trig_tuple_slot. Per report from Yoran Heling.
Back-patch to 9.0, when trigger WHEN conditions were introduced.

As pointed out by Sergey Koposov, repeated invocations of tbm_lossify can
make building a large tidbitmap into an O(N^2) operation. To fix, make
sure we remove more than the minimum amount of information per call, and
add a fallback path to behave sanely if we're unable to fit the bitmap
within the requested amount of memory.
This has been wrong since the tidbitmap code was written, so back-patch
to all supported branches.

Module initialization functions in Python 3 must have external

The TID isn't stable enough: we might queue an sinval event before a VACUUM
FULL, and then process it afterwards, when the target tuple no longer has
the same TID. So we must invalidate entries on the basis of hash value
only. The old coding can be shown to result in various bizarre,
hard-to-reproduce errors in the presence of concurrent VACUUM FULLs on
system catalogs, and could easily result in permanent catalog corruption,
up to and including complete loss of tables.
This commit is just a minimal fix that removes the unsafe comparison.
We should remove transmission of the tuple TID from sinval messages
altogether, and then arrange to suppress the extra message in the common
case of a heap_update that doesn't change the key hashvalue. But that's
going to be much more invasive, and will only produce a probably-marginal
performance gain, so it doesn't seem like material for a back-patch.
Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, VACUUM FULL refused to do any tuple moving
if it found any INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuples (and
CLUSTER would give up altogether), so there was no risk of moving a tuple
that might be the subject of an unsent sinval message.

We have to be sure that we have revalidated each nailed-in-cache relcache
entry before we try to use it to load data for some other relcache entry.
The introduction of "mapped relations" in 9.0 broke this, because although
we updated the state kept in relmapper.c early enough, we failed to
propagate that information into relcache entries soon enough; in
particular, we could try to fetch pg_class rows out of pg_class before
we'd updated its relcache entry's rd_node.relNode value from the map.
This bug accounts for Dave Gould's report of failures after "vacuum full
pg_class", and I believe that there is risk for other system catalogs
as well.
The core part of the fix is to copy relmapper data into the relcache
entries during "phase 1" in RelationCacheInvalidate(), before they'll be
used in "phase 2". To try to future-proof the code against other similar
bugs, I also rearranged the order in which nailed relations are visited
during phase 2: now it's pg_class first, then pg_class_oid_index, then
other nailed relations. This should ensure that RelationClearRelation can
apply RelationReloadIndexInfo to all nailed indexes without risking use
of not-yet-revalidated relcache entries.
Back-patch to 9.0 where the relation mapper was introduced.

This works around the problem that a catalog cache entry might contain a
toast pointer that we try to dereference just as a VACUUM FULL completes
on that catalog. We will see the sinval message on the cache entry when
we acquire lock on the toast table, but by that point we've already told
tuptoaster.c "here's the pointer to fetch", so it's difficult from a code
structural standpoint to update the pointer before we use it. Much less
painful to ensure that toast pointers are not invalidated in the first
place. We have to add a bit of code to deal with the case that a value
that previously wasn't toasted becomes so; but that should be a
seldom-exercised corner case, so the inefficiency shouldn't be significant.
Back-patch to 9.0. In prior versions, we didn't allow CLUSTER on system
catalogs, and VACUUM FULL didn't result in reassignment of toast OIDs, so
there was no problem.
|
|
The previous code tried to synchronize by unlinking the init file twice,
but that doesn't actually work: it leaves a window wherein a third process
could read the already-stale init file but miss the SI messages that would
tell it the data is stale. The result would be bizarre failures in catalog
accesses, typically "could not read block 0 in file ..." later during
startup.
Instead, hold RelCacheInitLock across both the unlink and the sending of
the SI messages. This is more straightforward, and might even be a bit
faster since only one unlink call is needed.
This has been wrong since it was put in (in 2002!), so back-patch to all
supported releases.

When updating or deleting a system catalog tuple, it's necessary to acquire
RowExclusiveLock on the catalog before looking up the tuple; otherwise a
concurrent VACUUM FULL on the catalog might move the tuple to a different
TID before we can apply the update. Coding patterns that find the tuple
via a table scan aren't at risk here, but when obtaining the tuple from a
catalog cache, correct ordering is important; and several routines in
foreigncmds.c got it wrong. Noted while running the regression tests in
parallel with VACUUM FULL of assorted system catalogs.
For consistency I moved all the heap_open calls to the starts of their
functions, including a couple for which there was no actual bug.
Back-patch to 8.4 where foreigncmds.c was added.

The statement start timestamp was not set before initiating the transaction
that is used to look up client authentication information in pg_authid.
In consequence, enable_sig_alarm computed a wrong value (far in the past)
for statement_fin_time. That didn't have any immediate effect, because the
timeout alarm was set without reference to statement_fin_time; but if we
subsequently blocked on a lock for a short time, CheckStatementTimeout
would consult the bogus value when we cancelled the lock timeout wait,
and then conclude we'd timed out, leading to immediate failure of the
connection attempt. Thus an innocent "vacuum full pg_authid" would cause
failures of concurrent connection attempts. Noted while testing other,
more serious consequences of vacuum full on system catalogs.
We should set the statement timestamp before StartTransactionCommand(),
so that the transaction start timestamp is also valid. I'm not sure if
there are any non-cosmetic effects of it not being valid, but the xact
timestamp is at least sent to the statistics machinery.
Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, the client authentication timeout was done
outside any transaction and did not depend on this state to be valid.

A PlaceHolderVar's expression might contain another, lower-level
PlaceHolderVar. If the outer PlaceHolderVar is used, the inner one
certainly will be also, and so we have to make sure that both of them get
into the placeholder_list with correct ph_may_need values during the
initial pre-scan of the query (before deconstruct_jointree starts).
We did this correctly for PlaceHolderVars appearing in the query quals,
but overlooked the issue for those appearing in the top-level targetlist;
with the result that nested placeholders referenced only in the targetlist
did not work correctly, as illustrated in bug #6154.
While at it, add some error checking to find_placeholder_info to ensure
that we don't try to create new placeholders after it's too late to do so;
they have to all be created before deconstruct_jointree starts.
Back-patch to 8.4 where the PlaceHolderVar mechanism was introduced.

This kluge was inserted in a spot apparently chosen at random: the lock
manager's state is not yet fully set up for the wait, and in particular
LockWaitCancel hasn't been armed by setting lockAwaited, so the ProcLock
will not get cleaned up if the ereport is thrown. This seems to not cause
any observable problem in trivial test cases, because LockReleaseAll will
silently clean up the debris; but I was able to cause failures with tests
involving subtransactions.
Fixes breakage induced by commit c85c941470efc44494fd7a5f426ee85fc65c268c.
Back-patch to all affected branches.

This fixes bug #6139 reported by Hitoshi Harada.

pg_backup_db.c contained a mini SQL lexer with which it tried to identify
boundaries between SQL commands, but that code was not designed to cope
with standard_conforming_strings, and would get the wrong answer if a
backslash immediately precedes a closing single quote in such a string,
as per report from Julian Mehnle. The bug only affects direct-to-database
restores from archive files made with standard_conforming_strings = on.
Rather than complicating the code some more to try to fix that, let's just
rip it all out. The only reason it was needed was to cope with COPY data
embedded into ordinary archive entries, which was a layout that was used
only for about the first three weeks of the archive format's existence,
and never in any production release of pg_dump. Instead, just rely on the
archive file layout to tell us whether we're printing COPY data or not.
This bug represents a data corruption hazard in all releases in which
standard_conforming_strings can be turned on, ie 8.2 and later, so
back-patch to all supported branches.
