4 daysFix typoÁlvaro Herrera
4 daysDon't allow CTEs to determine semantic levels of aggregates.Tom Lane
The fix for bug #19055 (commit b0cc0a71e) allowed CTE references in sub-selects within aggregate functions to affect the semantic levels assigned to such aggregates. It turns out this broke some related cases, leading to assertion failures or strange planner errors such as "unexpected outer reference in CTE query". After experimenting with some alternative rules for assigning the semantic level in such cases, we've come to the conclusion that changing the level is more likely to break things than be helpful. Therefore, this patch undoes what b0cc0a71e changed, and instead installs logic to throw an error if there is any reference to a CTE that's below the semantic level that standard SQL rules would assign to the aggregate based on its contained Var and Aggref nodes. (The SQL standard disallows sub-selects within aggregate functions, so it can't reach the troublesome case and hence has no rule for what to do.) Perhaps someone will come along with a legitimate query that this logic rejects, and if so probably the example will help us craft a level-adjustment rule that works better than what b0cc0a71e did. I'm not holding my breath for that though, because the previous logic had been there for a very long time before bug #19055 without complaints, and that bug report sure looks to have originated from fuzzing not from real usage. Like b0cc0a71e, back-patch to all supported branches, though sadly that no longer includes v13.

This file is written for 8-space tabs, since we expect that most users who edit their configuration files use 8-space tabs. However, most of PostgreSQL is written for 4-space tabs, and at least one popular web interface defaults to 4-space tabs.

5 daysClean up match_orclause_to_indexcol().Tom Lane
Remove bogus stripping of RelabelTypes: that can result in building an output SAOP tree with incorrect exposed exprType for the operands, which might confuse polymorphic operators. Moreover it demonstrably prevents folding some OR-trees to SAOPs when the RHS expressions have different base types that were coerced to the same type by RelabelTypes. Reduce prohibition on type_is_rowtype to just disallow type RECORD. We need that because otherwise we would happily fold multiple RECORD Consts into a RECORDARRAY Const even if they aren't the same record type. (We could allow that perhaps, if we checked that they all have the same typmod, but the case doesn't seem worth that much effort.) However, there is no reason at all to disallow the transformation for named composite types, nor domains over them: as long as we can find a suitable array type we're good. Remove some assertions that seem rather out of place (it's not this code's duty to verify that the RestrictInfo structure is sane). Rewrite some comments. The issues with RelabelType stripping seem severe enough to back-patch this into v18 where the code was introduced.

6 daysRework output format of pg_dependenciesMichael Paquier
The existing format of pg_dependencies uses a single-object JSON structure, with each key value embedding all the knowledge about the set attributes tracked, like: {"1 => 5": 1.000000, "5 => 1": 0.423130} While this is a very compact format, it is confusing to read and it is difficult to manipulate the values within the object, particularly when tracking multiple attributes. The new output format introduced in this commit is a JSON array of objects, with: - A key named "degree", with a float value. - A key named "attributes", with an array of attribute numbers. - A key named "dependency", with an attribute number. The values use the same underlying type as previously when printed, with a new output format that shows now as follows: [{"degree": 1.000000, "attributes": [1], "dependency": 5}, {"degree": 0.423130, "attributes": [5], "dependency": 1}] This new format will become handy for a follow-up set of changes, so as it becomes possible to inject extended statistics rather than require an ANALYZE, like in a dump/restore sequence or after pg_upgrade on a new cluster. This format has been suggested by Tomas Vondra.

6 daysFix Assert failure in EXPLAIN ANALYZE MERGE with a concurrent update.Dean Rasheed
When instrumenting a MERGE command containing both WHEN NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE and WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET actions using EXPLAIN ANALYZE, a concurrent update of the target relation could lead to an Assert failure in show_modifytable_info(). In a non-assert build, this would lead to an incorrect value for "skipped" tuples in the EXPLAIN output, rather than a crash. This could happen if the concurrent update caused a matched row to no longer match, in which case ExecMerge() treats the single originally matched row as a pair of not matched rows, and potentially executes 2 not-matched actions for the single source row. This could then lead to a state where the number of rows processed by the ModifyTable node exceeds the number of rows produced by its source node, causing "skipped_path" in show_modifytable_info() to be negative, triggering the Assert. Fix this in ExecMergeMatched() by incrementing the instrumentation tuple count on the source node whenever a concurrent update of this kind is detected, if both kinds of merge actions exist, so that the number of source rows matches the number of actions potentially executed, and the "skipped" tuple count is correct. Back-patch to v17, where support for WHEN NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE actions was introduced.

9 dayspgbench: Fix assertion failure with multiple \syncpipeline in pipeline mode.Fujii Masao
Previously, when pgbench ran a custom script that triggered retriable errors (e.g., deadlocks) followed by multiple \syncpipeline commands in pipeline mode, the following assertion failure could occur: Assertion failed: (res == ((void*)0)), function discardUntilSync, file pgbench.c, line 3594. The issue was that discardUntilSync() assumed a pipeline sync result (PGRES_PIPELINE_SYNC) would always be followed by either another sync result or NULL. This assumption was incorrect: when multiple sync requests were sent, a sync result could instead be followed by another result type. In such cases, discardUntilSync() mishandled the results, leading to the assertion failure. This commit fixes the issue by making discardUntilSync() correctly handle cases where a pipeline sync result is followed by other result types. It now continues discarding results until another pipeline sync followed by NULL is reached. Backpatched to v17, where support for \syncpipeline command in pgbench was introduced.

10 daysReplace off_t by pgoff_t in I/O routinesMichael Paquier
PostgreSQL's Windows port has never been able to handle files larger than 2GB due to the use of off_t for file offsets, only 32-bit on Windows. This causes signed integer overflow at exactly 2^31 bytes when trying to handle files larger than 2GB, for the routines touched by this commit. Note that large files are forbidden by ./configure (3c6248a828af) and meson (recent change, see 79cd66f28c65). This restriction also exists in v16 and older versions for the now-dead MSVC scripts. The code base already defines pgoff_t as __int64 (64-bit) on Windows for this purpose, and some function declarations in headers use it, but many internals still rely on off_t. This commit switches more routines to use pgoff_t, offering more portability, for areas mainly related to file extensions and storage. These are not critical for WAL segments yet, which have currently a maximum size allowed of 1GB (well, this opens the door at allowing a larger size for them). This matters more for segment files if we want to lift the large file restriction in ./configure and meson in the future, which would make sense to remove once/if all traces of off_t are gone from the tree. This can additionally matter for out-of-core code that may want files larger than 2GB in places where off_t is four bytes in size. Note that off_t is still used in other parts of the tree like buffile.c, WAL sender/receiver, base backup, pg_combinebackup, etc. These other code paths can be addressed separately, and their update will be required if we want to remove the large file restriction in the future. This commit is a good first cut in itself towards more portability, hopefully. On Unix-like systems, pgoff_t is defined as off_t, so this change only affects Windows behavior.

As a result, if a backend didn't for some reason process its notifications for a long time, or when a new backend issued LISTEN, you could get an error like: test=# listen c21; ERROR: 58P01: could not access status of transaction 14279685 DETAIL: Could not open file "pg_xact/000D": No such file or directory. LOCATION: SlruReportIOError, slru.c:1087 To fix, make VACUUM "freeze" the XIDs in the async notification queue before truncating the CLOG. Old XIDs are replaced with FrozenTransactionId or InvalidTransactionId. Note: This commit is not a full fix. A race condition remains, where a backend is executing asyncQueueReadAllNotifications() and has just made a local copy of an async SLRU page which contains old XIDs, while vacuum concurrently truncates the CLOG covering those XIDs. When the backend then calls TransactionIdDidCommit() on those XIDs from the local copy, you still get the error. The next commit will fix that remaining race condition. This was first reported by Sergey Zhuravlev in 2021, with many other people hitting the same issue later. Thanks to: - Alexandra Wang, Daniil Davydov, Andrei Varashen and Jacques Combrink for investigating and providing reproducable test cases, - Matheus Alcantara and Arseniy Mukhin for review and earlier proposed patches to fix this, - Álvaro Herrera and Masahiko Sawada for reviews, - Yura Sokolov aka funny-falcon for the idea of marking transactions as committed in the notification queue, and - Joel Jacobson for the final patch version. I hope I didn't forget anyone. Backpatch to all supported versions. I believe the bug goes back all the way to commit d1e027221d, which introduced the SLRU-based async notification queue.

10 daysEscalate ERRORs during async notify processing to FATALHeikki Linnakangas
Previously, if async notify processing encountered an error, we would report the error to the client and advance our read position past the offending entry to prevent trying to process it over and over again. Trying to continue after an error has a few problems however: - We have no way of telling the client that a notification was lost. They get an ERROR, but that doesn't tell you much. As such, it's not clear if keeping the connection alive after losing a notification is a good thing. Depending on the application logic, missing a notification could cause the application to get stuck waiting, for example. - If the connection is idle, PqCommReadingMsg is set and any ERROR is turned into FATAL anyway. - We bailed out of the notification processing loop on first error without processing any subsequent notifications. The subsequent notifications would not be processed until another notify interrupt arrives. For example, if there were two notifications pending, and processing the first one caused an ERROR, the second notification would not be processed until someone sent a new NOTIFY. This commit changes the behavior so that any ERROR while processing async notifications is turned into FATAL, causing the client connection to be terminated. That makes the behavior more consistent as that's what happened in idle state already, and terminating the connection is a clear signal to the application that it might've missed some notifications. The reason to do this now is that the next commits will change the notification processing code in a way that would make it harder to skip over just the offending notification entry on error.

In order to make the errorhandling code in backend libpq be thread- safe the global variable used by the certificate verification call- back need to be replaced with passing private data.

11 daysFix pg_upgrade around multixid and mxoff wraparoundHeikki Linnakangas
pg_resetwal didn't accept multixid 0 or multixact offset UINT32_MAX, but they are both valid values that can appear in the control file. That caused pg_upgrade to fail if you tried to upgrade a cluster exactly at multixid or offset wraparound, because pg_upgrade calls pg_resetwal to restore multixid/offset on the new cluster to the values from the old cluster. To fix, allow those values in pg_resetwal. Fixes bugs #18863 and #18865 reported by Dmitry Kovalenko. Backpatch down to v15. Version 14 has the same bug, but the patch doesn't apply cleanly there. It could be made to work but it doesn't seem worth the effort given how rare it is to hit this problem with pg_upgrade, and how few people are upgrading to v14 anymore.
