2023-05-04Move return statements out of PG_TRY blocks.Nathan Bossart
If we exit a PG_TRY block early via "continue", "break", "goto", or "return", we'll skip unwinding its exception stack. This change moves a couple of such "return" statements in PL/Python out of PG_TRY blocks. This was introduced in d0aa965c0a and affects all supported versions. We might also be able to add compile-time checks to prevent recurrence, but that is left as a future exercise.

2023-05-04In array_position()/array_positions(), beware of empty input array.Tom Lane
These functions incautiously fetched the array's first lower bound even when the array is zero-dimensional, thus fetching the word after the allocated array space. While almost always harmless, with very bad luck this could result in SIGSEGV. Fix by adding an early exit for empty input. Per bug #17920 from Alexander Lakhin.

2023-05-04Tighten array dimensionality checks in Python -> SQL array conversion.Tom Lane
Like plperl before f47004add, plpython wasn't being sufficiently careful about checking that list-of-list structures represent rectangular arrays, so that it would accept some cases in which different parts of the "array" are nested to different depths. This was exacerbated by Python's weak distinction between sequences and lists, so that in some cases strings could get treated as though they are lists (and burst into individual characters) even though a different ordering of the upper-level list would give a different result. Some of this behavior was unreachable (without risking a crash) before 81eaaf65e. It seems like a good idea to clean it all up in the same releases, rather than shipping a non-crashing but nonetheless visibly buggy behavior in the name of minimal change. Hence, back-patch. Per bug #17912 and further testing by Alexander Lakhin. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17912-82ceed78731d9cdc@postgresql.org
2023-04-29Tighten array dimensionality checks in Perl -> SQL array conversion.Tom Lane
plperl_array_to_datum() wasn't sufficiently careful about checking that nested lists represent a rectangular array structure; it would accept inputs such as "[1, []]". This is a bit related to the PL/Python bug fixed in commit 81eaaf65e, but it doesn't seem to provide any direct route to a memory stomp. Instead the likely failure mode is for makeMdArrayResult to be passed fewer Datums than the claimed array dimensionality requires, possibly leading to a wild pointer dereference and SIGSEGV. Per report from Alexander Lakhin. It's been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5ebae5e4-d401-fadf-8585-ac3eaf53219c@gmail.com
2023-04-28Handle zero-length sublist correctly in Python -> SQL array conversion.Tom Lane
If PLySequence_ToArray came across a zero-length sublist, it'd compute the overall array size as zero, possibly leading to a memory clobber. (This would likely qualify as a security bug, were it not that plpython is an untrusted language already.) I think there are other corner-case issues in this code as well, notably that the error messages don't match the core code and for some ranges of array sizes you'd get "invalid memory alloc request size" rather than the intended message about array size. Really this code has no business doing its own array size calculation at all, so remove the faulty code in favor of using ArrayGetNItems(). Per bug #17912 from Alexander Lakhin. Bug seems to have come in with commit 94aceed31, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17912-82ceed78731d9cdc@postgresql.org
2023-04-28Fix crashes with CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION and schema elementsMichael Paquier
CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION with appended schema elements can lead to crashes when comparing the schema name of the query with the schemas used in the qualification of some clauses in the elements' queries. The origin of the problem is that the transformation routine for the elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query uses as new, expected, schema name the one listed in CreateSchemaStmt itself. However, depending on the query, CreateSchemaStmt.schemaname may be NULL, being computed instead from the role specification of the query given by the AUTHORIZATION clause, that could be either: - A user name string, with the new schema name being set to the same value as the role given. - Guessed from CURRENT_ROLE, SESSION_ROLE or CURRENT_ROLE, with a new schema name computed from the security context where CREATE SCHEMA is running. Regression tests are added for CREATE SCHEMA with some appended elements (some of them with schema qualifications), covering also some role specification patterns. While on it, this simplifies the context structure used during the transformation of the elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query by removing the fields for the role specification and the role type. They were not used, and for the role specification this could be confusing as the schema name may by extracted from that at the beginning of CreateSchemaCommand(). This issue exists for a long time, so backpatch down to all the versions supported.

2023-04-24Fix memory leakage in plpgsql DO blocks that use cast expressions.Tom Lane
Commit 04fe805a1 modified plpgsql so that datatype casts make use of expressions cached by plancache.c, in place of older code where these expression trees were managed by plpgsql itself. However, I (tgl) forgot that we use a separate, shorter-lived cast info hashtable in DO blocks. The new mechanism thus resulted in session-lifespan leakage of the plancache data once a DO block containing one or more casts terminated. To fix, split the cast hash table into two parts, one that tracks only the plancache's CachedExpressions and one that tracks the expression state trees generated from them. DO blocks need their own expression state trees and hence their own version of the second hash table, but there's no reason they can't share the CachedExpressions with regular plpgsql functions. Per report from Ajit Awekar. Back-patch to v12 where the issue was introduced.

2023-04-18ecpg: Fix handling of strings in ORACLE compat code with SQLDAMichael Paquier
When compiled with -C ORACLE, ecpg_get_data() had a one-off issue where it would incorrectly store the null terminator byte to str[-1] when varcharsize is 0, which is something that can happen when using SQLDA. This would eat 1 byte from the previous field stored, corrupting the results generated. All the callers of ecpg_get_data() estimate and allocate enough storage for the data received, and the fix of this commit relies on this assumption. Note that this maps to the case where no padding or truncation is required. This issue has been introduced by 3b7ab43 with the Oracle compatibility option, so backpatch down to v11.

2023-04-17Avoid trying to write an empty WAL record in log_newpage_range().Tom Lane
If the last few pages in the specified range are empty (all zero), then log_newpage_range() could try to emit an empty WAL record containing no FPIs. This at least upsets an Assert in ReserveXLogInsertLocation, and might perhaps have bad real-world consequences in non-assert builds. This has been broken since log_newpage_range() was introduced, but the case was hard if not impossible to hit before commit 3d6a98457 decided it was okay to leave VM and FSM pages intentionally zero. Nonetheless, it seems prudent to back-patch. log_newpage_range() was added in v12 but later back-patched, so this affects all supported branches.

2023-04-14Fix incorrect partition pruning logic for boolean partitioned tablesDavid Rowley
The partition pruning logic assumed that "b IS NOT true" was exactly the same as "b IS FALSE". This is not the case when considering NULL values. Fix this so we correctly include any partition which could hold NULL values for the NOT case. Additionally, this fixes a bug in the partition pruning code which handles partitioned tables partitioned like ((NOT boolcol)). This is a seemingly unlikely schema design, and it was untested and also broken. Here we add tests for the ((NOT boolcol)) case and insert some actual data into those tables and verify we do get the correct rows back when running queries. I've also adjusted the existing boolpart tests to include some data and verify we get the correct results too. Both the bugs being fixed here could lead to incorrect query results with fewer rows being returned than expected. No additional rows could have been returned accidentally. In passing, remove needless ternary expression. It's more simple just to pass !is_not_clause to makeBoolConst(). It makes sense to do this so the code is consistent with the bug fix in the "else if" condition just below. David Kimura did submit a patch to fix the first of the issues here, but that's not what's being committed here.

2023-04-12Fix parallel-safety marking when moving initplans to another node.Tom Lane
Our policy since commit ab77a5a45 has been that a plan node having any initplans is automatically not parallel-safe. (This could be relaxed, but not today.) clean_up_removed_plan_level neglected this, and could attach initplans to a parallel-safe child plan node without clearing the plan's parallel-safe flag. That could lead to "subplan was not initialized" errors at runtime, in case an initplan referenced another one and only the referencing one got transmitted to parallel workers. The fix in clean_up_removed_plan_level is trivial enough. materialize_finished_plan also moves initplans from one node to another, but it's okay because it already copies the source node's parallel_safe flag. The other place that does this kind of thing is standard_planner's hack to inject a top-level Gather when debug_parallel_query is active. But that's actually dead code given that we're correctly enforcing the "initplans aren't parallel safe" rule, so just replace it with an Assert that there are no initplans. Also improve some related comments. Normally we'd add a regression test case for this sort of bug. The mistake itself is already reached by existing tests, but there is accidentally no visible problem. The only known test case that creates an actual failure seems too indirect and fragile to justify keeping it as a regression test (not least because it fails to fail in v11, though the bug is clearly present there too).

2023-04-07For Kerberos testing, disable DNS lookupsStephen Frost
Similar to 8dff2f224, this disables DNS lookups by the Kerberos library to look up the KDC and the realm while the Kerberos tests are running. In some environments, these lookups can take a long time and end up timing out and causing tests to fail. Further, since this isn't really our domain, we shouldn't be sending out these DNS requests during our tests.
2023-04-07For Kerberos testing, disable reverse DNS lookupStephen Frost
In our Kerberos test suite, there isn't much need to worry about the normal canonicalization that Kerberos provides by looking up the reverse DNS for the IP address connected to, and in some cases it can actively cause problems (eg: a captive portal wifi where the normally not resolvable localhost address used ends up being resolved anyway, and not to the domain we are using for testing, causing the entire regression test to fail with errors about not being able to get a TGT for the remote realm for cross-realm trust).

2023-04-06Fix ts_headline() edge cases for empty query and empty search text.Tom Lane
tsquery's GETQUERY() macro is only safe to apply to a tsquery that is known non-empty; otherwise it gives a pointer to garbage. Before commit 5a617d75d, ts_headline() avoided this pitfall, but only in a very indirect, nonobvious way. (hlCover could not reach its TS_execute call, because if the query contains no lexemes then hlFirstIndex would surely return -1.) After that commit, it fell into the trap, resulting in weird errors such as "unrecognized operator" and/or valgrind complaints. In HEAD, fix this by not calling TS_execute_locations() at all for an empty query. In the back branches, add a defensive check to hlCover() --- that's not fixing any live bug, but I judge the code a bit too fragile as-is. Also, both mark_hl_fragments() and mark_hl_words() were careless about the possibility of empty search text: in the cases where no match has been found, they'd end up telling mark_fragment() to mark from word indexes 0 to 0 inclusive, even when there is no word 0. This is harmless since we over-allocated the prs->words array, but it does annoy valgrind. Fix so that the end index is -1 and thus mark_fragment() will do nothing in such cases. Bottom line is that this fixes a live bug in HEAD, but in the back branches it's only getting rid of a valgrind nitpick. Back-patch anyway. Per report from Alexander Lakhin.

2023-04-05Fix another issue with ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER on partitioned tables.Tom Lane
In v13 and v14, the ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER USER variant malfunctioned on cloned triggers, failing to find the clones because it thought they were system triggers. Other variants of ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER would improperly apply a superuserness check. Fix by adjusting the is-it- a-system-trigger check to match reality in those branches. (As far as I can find, this is the only place that got it wrong.) There's no such bug in v15/HEAD, because we revised the catalog representation of system triggers to be what this code was expecting. However, add the test case to these branches anyway, because this area is visibly pretty fragile. Also remove an obsoleted comment. The recent v15/HEAD commit 6949b921d fixed a nearby bug. I now see that my commit message for that was inaccurate: the behavior of recursing to clone triggers is older than v15, but it didn't apply to the case in v13/v14 because in those branches parent partitioned tables have no pg_trigger entries for foreign-key triggers. But add the test case from that commit to v13/v14, just to show what is happening there. Per bug #17886 from DzmitryH. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17886-5406d5d828aa4aa3@postgresql.org
2023-03-31Reject system columns as elements of foreign keys.Tom Lane
Up through v11 it was sensible to use the "oid" system column as a foreign key column, but since that was removed there's no visible usefulness in making any of the remaining system columns a foreign key. Moreover, since the TupleTableSlot rewrites in v12, such cases actively fail because of implicit assumptions that only user columns appear in foreign keys. The lack of complaints about that seems like good evidence that no one is trying to do it. Hence, rather than trying to repair those assumptions (of which there are at least two, maybe more), let's just forbid the case up front. Per this patch, a system column in either the referenced or referencing side of a foreign key will draw this error; however, putting one in the referenced side would have failed later anyway, since we don't allow unique indexes to be made on system columns. Per bug #17877 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v12; the case still appears to work in v11, so we shouldn't break it there. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17877-4bcc658e33df6de1@postgresql.org

2023-03-31Fix List memory issue in transformColumnDefinitionDavid Rowley
When calling generateSerialExtraStmts(), we would pass in the constraint->options.

In the particular reported problem case, the List became empty, in which cases it became NIL, but the passed in constraint->options didn't get to find out about that and was left pointing to free'd memory. To fix this, just perform a list_copy() inside generateSerialExtraStmts(). We could just do a list_copy() just before we perform the delete from the list, however, that seems less robust.

2023-03-29Fix dereference of dangling pointer in GiST index buffering build.Tom Lane
gistBuildCallback tried to fetch the size of an index tuple that might have already been freed by gistProcessEmptyingQueue. While this seems to usually be harmless in production builds, in principle it could result in a SIGSEGV, or more likely a bogus value for indtuplesSize leading to poor page-split decisions later in the build. The memory management here is confusing and could stand to be refactored, but for the moment it seems to be enough to fetch the tuple size sooner. AFAICT the indtuples[Size] totals aren't used in between these places; even if they were, the updated values shouldn't be any worse to use. So just move the incrementing of the totals up. It's not very clear why our valgrind-using buildfarm animals haven't noticed this problem, because the relevant code path does seem to be exercised according to the code coverage report. I think the reason that we didn't fix this bug after the first report is that I'd wanted to try to understand that better.

Teach it to detect such cases and error out. We have to work a bit harder than for other relations because the pg_depend entry won't identify the specific index column of concern, but it's not much new code.

2023-03-26Fix oversights in array manipulation.Tom Lane
The nested-arrays code path in ExecEvalArrayExpr() used palloc to allocate the result array, whereas every other array-creating function has used palloc0 since 18c0b4ecc. This mostly works, but unused bits past the end of the nulls bitmap may end up undefined. That causes valgrind complaints with -DWRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES, and could cause planner misbehavior as cited in 18c0b4ecc. There seems no very good reason why we should strive to avoid palloc0 in just this one case, so fix it the easy way with s/palloc/palloc0/. While looking at that I noted that we also failed to check for overflow of "nbytes" and "nitems" while summing the sizes of the sub-arrays, potentially allowing a crash due to undersized output allocation. For "nbytes", follow the policy used by other array-munging code of checking for overflow after each addition. (As elsewhere, the last addition of the array's overhead space doesn't need an extra check, since palloc itself will catch a value between 1Gb and 2Gb.) For "nitems", there's no very good reason to sum the inputs at all, since we can perfectly well use ArrayGetNItems' result instead of ignoring it. Per discussion of this bug, also remove redundant zeroing of the nulls bitmap in array_set_element and array_set_slice.

2023-03-21Fix race in parallel hash join batch cleanup, take II.Thomas Munro
With unlucky timing and parallel_leader_participation=off (not the default), PHJ could attempt to access per-batch shared state just as it was being freed. There was code intended to prevent that by checking for a cleared pointer, but it was racy. Fix, by introducing an extra barrier phase. The new phase PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING means that it's safe to access the per-batch state to find a batch to help with, and PHJ_BUILD_DONE means that it is too late. The last to detach will free the array of per-batch state as before, but now it will also atomically advance the phase, so that late attachers can avoid the hazard. This mirrors the way per-batch hash tables are freed (see phases PHJ_BATCH_PROBING and PHJ_BATCH_DONE). An earlier attempt to fix this (commit 3b8981b6, later reverted) missed one special case. When the inner side is empty (the "empty inner optimization), the build barrier would only make it to PHJ_BUILD_HASHING_INNER phase before workers attempted to detach from the hashtable. In that case, fast-forward the build barrier to PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING before proceeding, so that our later assertions hold and we can still negotiate who is cleaning up.

2023-03-17Fix pg_dump for hash partitioning on enum columns.Tom Lane
Hash partitioning on an enum is problematic because the hash codes are derived from the OIDs assigned to the enum values, which will almost certainly be different after a dump-and-reload than they were before. This means that some rows probably end up in different partitions than before, causing restore to fail because of partition constraint violations. (pg_upgrade dodges this problem by using hacks to force the enum values to keep the same OIDs, but that's not possible nor desirable for pg_dump.) Users can work around that by specifying --load-via-partition-root, but since that's a dump-time not restore-time decision, one might find out the need for it far too late. Instead, teach pg_dump to apply that option automatically when dealing with a partitioned table that has hash-on-enum partitioning. Also deal with a pre-existing issue for --load-via-partition-root mode: in a parallel restore, we try to TRUNCATE target tables just before loading them, in order to enable some backend optimizations. This is bad when using --load-via-partition-root because (a) we're likely to suffer deadlocks from restore jobs trying to restore rows into other partitions than they came from, and (b) if we miss getting a deadlock we might still lose data due to a TRUNCATE removing rows from some already-completed restore job. The fix for this is conceptually simple: just don't TRUNCATE if we're dealing with a --load-via-partition-root case. The tricky bit is for pg_restore to identify those cases. In dumps using COPY commands we can inspect each COPY command to see if it targets the nominal target table or some ancestor. However, in dumps using INSERT commands it's pretty impractical to examine the INSERTs in advance. To provide a solution for that going forward, modify pg_dump to mark TABLE DATA items that are using --load-via-partition-root with a comment. (This change also responds to a complaint from Robert Haas that the dump output for --load-via-partition-root is pretty confusing.) pg_restore checks for the special comment as well as checking the COPY command if present. This will fail to identify the combination of --load-via-partition-root and --inserts in pre-existing dump files, but that should be a pretty rare case in the field. If it does happen you will probably get a deadlock failure that you can work around by not using parallel restore, which is the same as before this bug fix. Having done this, there seems no remaining reason for the alarmism in the pg_dump man page about combining --load-via-partition-root with parallel restore, so remove that warning. Patch by me; thanks to Julien Rouhaud for review. Back-patch to v11 where hash partitioning was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1376149.1675268279@sss.pgh.pa.us
2023-03-16tests: Prevent syslog activity by slapd, take 2Andres Freund
Unfortunately it turns out that the logfile-only option added in b9f8d1cbad7 is only available in openldap starting in 2.6. Luckily the option to control the log level (loglevel/-s) have been around for much longer. As it turns out loglevel/-s only control what goes into syslog, not what ends up in the file specified with 'logfile' and stderr. While we currently are specifying 'logfile', nothing ends up in it, as the option only controls debug messages, and we didn't set a debug level. The debug level can only be configured on the commandline and also prevents forking. That'd require larger changes, so this commit doesn't tackle that issue. Specify the syslog level when starting slapd using -s, as that allows to prevent all syslog messages if one uses '0' instead of 'none', while loglevel doesn't prevent the first message.

2023-03-15Fix waitpid() emulation on Windows.Thomas Munro
Our waitpid() emulation didn't prevent a PID from being recycled by the OS before the call to waitpid(). The postmaster could finish up tracking more than one child process with the same PID, and confuse them. Fix, by moving the guts of pgwin32_deadchild_callback() into waitpid(), so that resources are released synchronously. The process and PID continue to exist until we close the process handle, which only happens once we're ready to adjust our book-keeping of running children. This seems to explain a couple of failures on CI. It had never been reported before, despite the code being as old as the Windows port. Perhaps Windows started recycling PIDs more rapidly, or perhaps timing changes due to commit 7389aad6 made it more likely to break. Thanks to Alexander Lakhin for analysis and Andres Freund for tracking down the root cause. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2023-03-14Fix corner case bug in numeric to_char() some more.Tom Lane
The band-aid applied in commit f0bedf3e4 turns out to still need some work: it made sure we didn't set Np->last_relevant too small (to the left of the decimal point), but it didn't prevent setting it too large (off the end of the partially-converted string). This could result in fetching data beyond the end of the allocated space, which with very bad luck could cause a SIGSEGV, though I don't see any hazard of interesting memory disclosure.

2023-03-13Fix JSON error reporting for many cases of erroneous string values.Tom Lane
The majority of error exit cases in json_lex_string() failed to set lex->token_terminator, causing problems for the error context reporting code: it would see token_terminator less than token_start and do something more or less nuts. In v14 and up the end result could be as bad as a crash in report_json_context(). Older versions accidentally avoided that fate; but all versions produce error context lines that are far less useful than intended, because they'd stop at the end of the prior token instead of continuing to where the actually-bad input is. To fix, invent some macros that make it less notationally painful to do the right thing. Also add documentation about what the function is actually required to do; and in >= v14, add an assertion in report_json_context about token_terminator being sufficiently far advanced. Per report from Nikolay Shaplov. Back-patch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/7332649.x5DLKWyVIX@thinkpad-pgpro

2023-03-13Fix inconsistent error handling for GSS encryption in PQconnectPoll()Michael Paquier
The error cases for TLS and GSS encryption were inconsistent. After TLS fails, the connection is marked as dead and follow-up calls of PQconnectPoll() would return immediately, but GSS encryption was not doing that, so the connection would still have been allowed to enter the GSS handling code. This was handled incorrectly when gssencmode was set to "require". "prefer" was working correctly, and this could not happen under "disable" as GSS encryption would not be attempted. This commit makes the error handling of GSS encryption on par with TLS portion, fixing the case of gssencmode=require.

The COPY documentation is quite clear that "COPY relation TO" copies rows from only the named table, not any inheritance children it may have.

2023-03-09Fix race in SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY.Thomas Munro
Commit bdaabb9b started skipping doomed transactions when building the list of possible conflicts for SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. That makes sense, because doomed transactions won't commit, but a couple of subtle things broke: 1. If all uncommitted r/w transactions are doomed, a READ ONLY transaction would arbitrarily not benefit from the safe snapshot optimization. It would not be taken immediately, and yet no other transaction would set SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE later. 2. In the same circumstances but with DEFERRABLE, GetSafeSnapshot() would correctly exit its wait loop without sleeping and then take the optimization in non-assert builds, but assert builds would fail a sanity check that SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE had been set by another transaction. This is similar to the case for PredXact->WritableSxactCount == 0. We should opt out immediately if our possibleUnsafeConflicts list is empty after filtering. The code to maintain the serializable global xmin is moved down below the new opt out site, because otherwise we'd have to reverse its effects before returning. Back-patch to all supported releases.

2023-03-07Fix corruption due to vacuum_defer_cleanup_age underflowing 64bit xidsAndres Freund
When vacuum_defer_cleanup_age is bigger than the current xid, including the epoch, the subtraction of vacuum_defer_cleanup_age would lead to a wrapped around xid. While that normally is not a problem, the subsequent conversion to a 64bit xid results in a 64bit-xid very far into the future. As that xid is used as a horizon to detect whether rows versions are old enough to be removed, that allows removal of rows that are still visible (i.e. corruption). If vacuum_defer_cleanup_age was never changed from the default, there is no chance of this bug occurring. This bug was introduced in dc7420c2c92. A lesser version of it exists in 12-13, introduced by fb5344c969a, affecting only GiST. The 12-13 version of the issue can, in rare cases, lead to pages in a gist index getting recycled too early, potentially causing index entries to be found multiple times. The fix is fairly simple - don't allow vacuum_defer_cleanup_age to retreat further than FirstNormalTransactionId. Patches to make similar bugs easier to find, by adding asserts to the 64bit xid infrastructure, have been proposed, but are not suitable for backpatching. Currently there are no tests for vacuum_defer_cleanup_age. A patch introducing infrastructure to make writing a test easier has been posted to the list.

2023-03-07Fix more bugs caused by adding columns to the end of a view.Tom Lane
If a view is defined atop another view, and then CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW is used to add columns to the lower view, then when the upper view's referencing RTE is expanded by ApplyRetrieveRule we will have a subquery RTE with fewer eref->colnames than output columns. This confuses various code that assumes those lists are always in sync, as they are in plain parser output. We have seen such problems before (cf commit d5b760ecb), and now I think the time has come to do what was speculated about in that commit: let's make ApplyRetrieveRule synthesize some column names to preserve the invariant that holds in parser output. Otherwise we'll be chasing this class of bugs indefinitely. Moreover, it appears from testing that this actually gives us better results in the test case d5b760ecb added, and likely in other corner cases that we lack coverage for. In HEAD, I replaced d5b760ecb's hack to make expandRTE exit early with an elog(ERROR) call, since the case is now presumably unreachable. But it seems like changing that in back branches would bring more risk than benefit, so there I just updated the comment. Per bug #17811 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2023-03-06Fix some more cases of missed GENERATED-column updates.Tom Lane
If UPDATE is forced to retry after an EvalPlanQual check, it neglected to repeat GENERATED-column computations, even though those might well have changed since we're dealing with a different tuple than before. Fixing this is mostly a matter of looping back a bit further when we retry. In v15 and HEAD that's most easily done by altering the API of ExecUpdateAct so that it includes computing GENERATED expressions. Also, if an UPDATE in a partitioned table turns into a cross-partition INSERT operation, we failed to recompute GENERATED columns. That's a bug since 8bf6ec3ba allowed partitions to have different generation expressions; although it seems to have no ill effects before that. Fixing this is messier because we can now have situations where the same query needs both the UPDATE-aligned set of GENERATED columns and the INSERT-aligned set, and it's unclear which set will be generated first (else we could hack things by forcing the INSERT-aligned set to be generated, which is indeed how fe9e658f4 made it work for MERGE). The best fix seems to be to build and store separate sets of expressions for the INSERT and UPDATE cases. That would create ABI issues in the back branches, but so far it seems we can leave this alone in the back branches. Per bug #17823 from Hisahiro Kauchi. The first part of this affects all branches back to v12 where GENERATED columns were added. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17823-b64909cf7d63de84@postgresql.org
2023-03-06Fix assert failures in parallel SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY.Thomas Munro
1. Make sure that we don't decrement SxactGlobalXminCount twice when the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE optimization is reached in a parallel query. This could trigger a sanity check failure in assert builds. Non-assert builds recompute the count in SetNewSxactGlobalXmin(), so the problem was hidden, explaining the lack of field reports. Add a new isolation test to exercise that case. 2. Remove an assertion that the DOOMED flag can't be set on a partially released SERIALIZABLEXACT. Instead, ignore the flag (our transaction was already determined to be read-only safe, and DOOMED is in fact set during partial release, and there was already an assertion that it wasn't set sooner). Improve an existing isolation test so that it reaches that case (previously it wasn't quite testing what it was supposed to be testing; see discussion). Back-patch to 12. Bug #17116.
