2013-10-09Add record_image_ops opclass for matview concurrent refresh.Kevin Grittner
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY was broken for any matview containing a column of a type without a default btree operator class. It also did not produce results consistent with a non- concurrent REFRESH or a normal view if any column was of a type which allowed user-visible differences between values which compared as equal according to the type's default btree opclass. Concurrent matview refresh was modified to use the new operators to solve these problems. Documentation was added for record comparison, both for the default btree operator class for record, and the newly added operators. Regression tests now check for proper behavior both for a matview with a box column and a matview containing a citext column. Reviewed by Steve Singer, who suggested some of the doc language.

2013-10-08TYPEALIGN doesn't work on int64 on 32-bit platforms.Heikki Linnakangas
The TYPEALIGN macro, and the related ones like MAXALIGN, don't work with values larger than intptr_t, because TYPEALIGN casts the argument to intptr_t to do the arithmetic. That's not a problem when dealing with pointers or lengths or offsets related to pointers, but the XLogInsert scaling patch added a call to MAXALIGN with an XLogRecPtr argument. To fix, add wider variants of the macros, called TYPEALIGN64 and MAXALIGN64, which are just like the existing variants but work with uint64 instead of intptr_t. Report and patch by David Rowley, analysis by Andres Freund.
2013-10-08Fix bugs in SSI tuple locking.Heikki Linnakangas
1. In heap_hot_search_buffer(), the PredicateLockTuple() call is passed wrong offset number. heapTuple->t_self is set to the tid of the first tuple in the chain that's visited, not the one actually being read. 2. CheckForSerializableConflictIn() uses the tuple's t_ctid field instead of t_self to check for exiting predicate locks on the tuple. If the tuple was updated, but the updater rolled back, t_ctid points to the aborted dead tuple. Reported by Hannu Krosing. Backpatch to 9.1.

2013-10-07Eliminate xmin from hash tag for predicate locks on heap tuples.Kevin Grittner
If a tuple was frozen while its predicate locks mattered, read-write dependencies could be missed, resulting in failure to detect conflicts which could lead to anomalies in committed serializable transactions. This field was added to the tag when we still thought that it was necessary to carry locks forward to a new version of an updated row. That was later proven to be unnecessary, which allowed simplification of the code, but elimination of xmin from the tag was missed at the time. Per report and analysis by Heikki Linnakangas. Backpatch to 9.1.
2013-10-05Fix various bugs in postmaster SIGKILL processingAlvaro Herrera
Clamp the minimum sleep time during immediate shutdown or crash to a minimum of zero, not a maximum of one second. The previous code could result in a negative sleep time, leading to failure in select() calls. Also, on crash recovery, reset AbortStartTime as soon as SIGKILL is sent or abort processing has commenced instead of waiting until the startup process completes. Reset AbortStartTime as soon as SIGKILL is sent, too, to avoid doing that repeatedly.

2013-10-03Minor GIN code refactoring.Heikki Linnakangas
It makes for cleaner code to have separate Get/Add functions for PostingItems and ItemPointers. A few callsites that have to deal with both types need to be duplicated because of this, but all the callers have to know which one they're dealing with anyway. Overall, this reduces the amount of casting required. Extracted from Alexander Korotkov's larger patch to change the data page format.

2013-09-30In bms_add_member(), use repalloc() if the bms needs to be enlarged.Heikki Linnakangas
Previously bms_add_member() would palloc a whole-new copy of the existing set, copy the words, and pfree the old one. repalloc() is potentially much faster, and more importantly, this is less surprising if CurrentMemoryContext is not the same as the context the old set is in. bms_add_member() still allocates a new bitmapset in CurrentMemoryContext if NULL is passed as argument, but that is a lot less likely to induce bugs.

2013-09-30Fix snapshot leak if lo_open called on non-existent object.Heikki Linnakangas
lo_open registers the currently active snapshot, and checks if the large object exists after that. Normally, snapshots registered by lo_open are unregistered at end of transaction when the lo descriptor is closed, but if we error out before the lo descriptor is added to the list of open descriptors, it is leaked. Fix by moving the snapshot registration to after checking if the large object exists. Reported by Pavel Stehule. Backpatch to 8.4. The snapshot registration system was introduced in 8.4, so prior versions are not affected (and not supported, anyway).

2013-09-26Fix spurious warning after vacuuming a page on a table with no indexes.Heikki Linnakangas
There is a rare race condition, when a transaction that inserted a tuple aborts while vacuum is processing the page containing the inserted tuple. Vacuum prunes the page first, which normally removes any dead tuples, but if the inserting transaction aborts right after that, the loop after pruning will see a dead tuple and remove it instead. That's OK, but if the page is on a table with no indexes, and the page becomes completely empty after removing the dead tuple (or tuples) on it, it will be immediately marked as all-visible. That's OK, but the sanity check in vacuum would throw a warning because it thinks that the page contains dead tuples and was nevertheless marked as all-visible, even though it just vacuumed away the dead tuples and so it doesn't actually contain any. Spotted this while reading the code. It's difficult to hit the race condition otherwise, but can be done by putting a breakpoint after the heap_page_prune() call. Backpatch all the way to 8.4, where this code first appeared.
2013-09-25Plug memory leak in range_cmp function.Heikki Linnakangas
B-tree operators are not allowed to leak memory into the current memory context. Range_cmp leaked detoasted copies of the arguments. That caused a quick out-of-memory error when creating an index on a range column. Reported by Marian Krucina, bug #8468.

2013-09-23Don't allow system columns in CHECK constraints, except tableoid.Robert Haas
Previously, arbitray system columns could be mentioned in table constraints, but they were not correctly checked at runtime, because the values weren't actually set correctly in the tuple. Since it seems easy enough to initialize the table OID properly, do that, and continue allowing that column, but disallow the rest unless and until someone figures out a way to make them work properly. No back-patch, because this doesn't seem important enough to take the risk of destabilizing the back branches. In fact, this will pose a dump-and-reload hazard for those upgrading from previous versions: constraints that were accepted before but were not correctly enforced will now either be enforced correctly or not accepted at all. Either could result in restore failures, but in practice I think very few users will notice the difference, since the use case is pretty marginal anyway and few users will be relying on features that have not historically worked.

2013-09-23Fix SSL deadlock risk in libpqStephen Frost
In libpq, we set up and pass to OpenSSL callback routines to handle locking. When we run out of SSL connections, we try to clean things up by de-registering the hooks. Unfortunately, we had a few calls into the OpenSSL library after these hooks were de-registered during SSL cleanup which lead to deadlocking. This moves the thread callback cleanup to be after all SSL-cleanup related OpenSSL library calls. I've been unable to reproduce the deadlock with this fix. In passing, also move the close_SSL call to be after unlocking our ssl_config mutex when in a failure state. While it looks pretty unlikely to be an issue, it could have resulted in deadlocks if we ended up in this code path due to something other than SSL_new failing. Thanks to Heikki for pointing this out. Back-patch to all supported versions; note that the close_SSL issue only goes back to 9.0, so that hunk isn't included in the 8.4 patch. Initially found and reported by Vesa-Matti J Kari; many thanks to both Heikki and Andres for their help running down the specific issue and reviewing the patch.
2013-09-23Fix two timeline handling bugs in pg_receivexlog.Heikki Linnakangas
When a timeline history file is fetched from server, it is initially created with a temporary file name, and renamed to place. However, the temporary file name was constructed using an uninitialized buffer. Usually that meant that the file was created in current directory instead of the target, which usually goes unnoticed, but if the target is on a different filesystem than the current dir, the rename() would fail. Fix that. The second issue is that pg_receivexlog would not take .partial files into account when determining when scanning the target directory for existing WAL files. If the timeline has switched in the server several times in the last WAL segment, and pg_receivexlog is restarted, it would choose a too old starting point. That's not a problem as long as the old WAL segment exists in the server and can be streamed over, but will cause a failure if it's not. Backpatch to 9.3, where this timeline handling code was written. Analysed by Andrew Gierth, bug #8453, based on a bug report on IRC.

2013-09-11Ignore interrupts during quickdie().Noah Misch
Once the administrator has called for an immediate shutdown or a backend crash has triggered a reinitialization, no mere SIGINT or SIGTERM should change that course. Such derailment remains possible when the signal arrives before quickdie() blocks signals. That being a narrow race affecting most PostgreSQL signal handlers in some way, leave it for another patch. Back-patch this to all supported versions.
