There's no particular reason to mark it as such. The other convert*
functions have no const either.

There's no point in trying to free every small allocation in these
programs that are used in a one-shot fashion, but these ones seems like
an improvement on readability grounds.

Patch by David Rowley. Backpatch to 9.5, as some of the calls were new in
9.5, and keeping the code in sync with master makes future backpatching
easier.

It's called "missing_ok" in the docs and in the C code.
I refrained from doing a catversion bump for this, because the name of an
input argument is just documentation, it has no effect on any callers.

Commit 179cdd09 added macros to check if a filename is a WAL segment
or other such file. However there were still some instances of the
strlen + strspn combination to check for that in WAL-related utilities
like pg_archivecleanup. Those checks can be replaced with the macros.
This patch makes use of the macros in those utilities and
which would make the code a bit easier to read.
Back-patch to 9.5.

Free the contexts holding this data after we're done using it, by the
expedient of attaching them to the PostmasterContext which we were
already taking care to delete (and where, indeed, this data used to live
before commits e5e2fc842c418432 and 7c45e3a3c682f855). This saves a
probably-usually-negligible amount of space per running backend. It also
avoids leaving potentially-security-sensitive data lying around in memory
in processes that don't need it. You'd have to be unusually paranoid to
think that that amounts to a live security bug, so I've not gone so far as
to forcibly zero the memory; but there surely isn't a good reason to keep
this data around.
Arguably this is a memory management bug in the aforementioned commits,
but it doesn't seem important enough to back-patch.

This function is documented to return a value in the range (0,1),
which is what its predecessor anl_random_fract() did. However, the
new version depends on pg_erand48() which returns a value in [0,1).
The possibility of returning zero creates hazards of division by zero
or trying to compute log(0) at some call sites, and it might well
break third-party modules using anl_random_fract() too. So let's
change it to never return zero. Spotted by Coverity.

XLogFileCopy() was changed heavily in commit de76884. However it was
partially reverted in commit 7abc685 and most of those changes to
XLogFileCopy() were no longer needed. Then commit 7cbee7c removed
those unnecessary code, but XLogFileCopy() looked different in master
and 9.4 though the contents are almost the same.
This patch makes XLogFileCopy() look the same in master and back-branches,
which makes back-patching easier, per discussion on pgsql-hackers.
Back-patch to 9.5.

Coverity rightly gripes that it's silly to have a test here when
the adjacent ExecEvalExpr() would choke on a NULL expression pointer.

This seems useful to catch errors of the sort I just fixed, where
PageGetSpecialPointer is called before initializing the page.
|
|
After calling XLogInitBufferForRedo(), the page might be all-zeros if it was
not in page cache already. btree_xlog_unlink_page initialized the page
correctly, but it called PageGetSpecialPointer before initializing it, which
would lead to a corrupt page at WAL replay, if the unlinked page is not in
page cache.
Backpatch to 9.4, the bug came with the rewrite of B-tree page deletion.

Without this, we might access memory that's already been freed, or
leak memory if in the C locale.

I broke this with my WAL format refactoring patch. Before that, the metapage
was read from disk, and modified in-place regardless of the LSN. That was
always a bit silly, as there's no need to read the old page version from
disk disk when we're overwriting it anyway. So that was changed in 9.5, but
I failed to add a GinInitPage call to initialize the page-headers correctly.
Usually you wouldn't notice, because the metapage is already in the page
cache and is not zeroed.
One way to reproduce this is to perform a VACUUM on an already vacuumed
table (so that the vacuum has no real work to do), immediately after a
checkpoint, and then perform an immediate shutdown. After recovery, the
page headers of the metapage will be incorrectly all-zeroes.

Avoid memory leak from incorrect choice of how to free a StringInfo
(resetStringInfo doesn't do it). Now that pg_split_opts doesn't scribble
on the optstr, mark that as "const" for clarity. Attach the commentary in
protocol.sgml to the right place, and add documentation about the
user-visible effects of this change on postgres' -o option and libpq's
PGOPTIONS option.

_Asm_sched_fence() is just a compiler barrier, not a memory barrier. But
spinlock release on IA64 needs, at the very least, release
semantics. Use a full barrier instead.
This might be the cause for the occasional failures on buildfarm member
anole.

As first committed, this view reported on the file contents as they were
at the last SIGHUP event. That's not as useful as reporting on the current
contents, and what's more, it didn't work right on Windows unless the
current session had serviced at least one SIGHUP. Therefore, arrange to
re-read the files when pg_show_all_settings() is called. This requires
only minor refactoring so that we can pass changeVal = false to
set_config_option() so that it won't actually apply any changes locally.
In addition, add error reporting so that errors that would prevent the
configuration files from being loaded, or would prevent individual settings
from being applied, are visible directly in the view. This makes the view
usable for pre-testing whether edits made in the config files will have the
desired effect, before one actually issues a SIGHUP.
I also added an "applied" column so that it's easy to identify entries that
are superseded by later entries; this was the main use-case for the original
design, but it seemed unnecessarily hard to use for that.
Also fix a 9.4.1 regression that allowed multiple entries for a
PGC_POSTMASTER variable to cause bogus complaints in the postmaster log.
(The issue here was that commit bf007a27acd7b2fb unintentionally reverted
3e3f65973a3c94a6, which suppressed any duplicate entries within
ParseConfigFp. However, since the original coding of the pg_file_settings
view depended on such suppression *not* happening, we couldn't have fixed
this issue now without first doing something with pg_file_settings.
Now we suppress duplicates by marking them "ignored" within
ProcessConfigFileInternal, which doesn't hide them in the view.)
Lesser changes include:
Drive the view directly off the ConfigVariable list, instead of making a
basically-equivalent second copy of the data. There's no longer any need
to hang onto the data permanently, anyway.
Convert show_all_file_settings() to do its work in one call and return a
tuplestore; this avoids risks associated with assuming that the GUC state
will hold still over the course of query execution. (I think there were
probably latent bugs here, though you might need something like a cursor
on the view to expose them.)
Arrange to run SIGHUP processing in a short-lived memory context, to
forestall process-lifespan memory leaks. (There is one known leak in this
code, in ProcessConfigDirectory; it seems minor enough to not be worth
back-patching a specific fix for.)
Remove mistaken assignment to ConfigFileLineno that caused line counting
after an include_dir directive to be completely wrong.
Add missed failure check in AlterSystemSetConfigFile(). We don't really
expect ParseConfigFp() to fail, but that's not an excuse for not checking.

When archive recovery and restartpoints were initially introduced,
checkpoint_segments was ignored on the grounds that the files restored from
archive don't consume any space in the recovery server. That was changed in
later releases, but even then it was arguably a feature rather than a bug,
as performing restartpoints as often as checkpoints during normal operation
might be excessive, but you might nevertheless not want to waste a lot of
space for pre-allocated WAL by setting checkpoint_segments to a high value.
But now that we have separate min_wal_size and max_wal_size settings, you
can bound WAL usage with max_wal_size, and still avoid consuming excessive
space usage by setting min_wal_size to a lower value, so that argument is
moot.
There are still some issues with actually limiting the space usage to
max_wal_size: restartpoints in recovery can only start after seeing the
checkpoint record, while a checkpoint starts flushing buffers as soon as
the redo-pointer is set. Restartpoint is paced to happen at the same
leisurily speed, determined by checkpoint_completion_target, as checkpoints,
but because they are started later, max_wal_size can be exceeded by upto
one checkpoint cycle's worth of WAL, depending on
checkpoint_completion_target. But that seems better than not trying at all,
and max_wal_size is a soft limit anyway.
The documentation already claimed that max_wal_size is obeyed in recovery,
so this just fixes the behaviour to match the docs. However, add some
weasel-words there to mention that max_wal_size may well be exceeded by
some amount in recovery.

Seems like cheap insurance for WAL bugs. A spurious call to
XLogBeginInsert() in itself would be fairly harmless, but if there is any
data registered and the insertion is not completed/cancelled properly, there
is a risk that the data ends up in a wrong WAL record.
Per Jeff Janes's suggestion.
|
|
If data checksums or wal_log_hints is on, and a GIN page is split, the code
to find a new, empty, block was called after having already called
XLogBeginInsert(). That causes an assertion failure or PANIC, if finding the
new block involves updating a FSM page that had not been modified since last
checkpoint, because that update is WAL-logged, which calls XLogBeginInsert
again. Nested XLogBeginInsert calls are not supported.
To fix, rearrange GIN code so that XLogBeginInsert is called later, after
finding the victim buffers.

If a file is removed from the source server, while pg_rewind is running, the
invocation of pg_read_binary_file() will fail. Use the just-added missing_ok
option to that function, to have it return NULL instead, and handle that
gracefully. And similarly for pg_ls_dir and pg_stat_file.
Reported by Fujii Masao, fix by Michael Paquier.
|
|
This makes it possible to use the functions without getting errors, if there
is a chance that the file might be removed or renamed concurrently.
pg_rewind needs to do just that, although this could be useful for other
purposes too. (The changes to pg_rewind to use these functions will come in
a separate commit.)
The read_binary_file() function isn't very well-suited for extensions.c's
purposes anymore, if it ever was. So bite the bullet and make a copy of it
in extension.c, tailored for that use case. This seems better than the
accidental code reuse, even if it's a some more lines of code.

A few places assumed they could pass NULL for the argtypes array when
looking up functions known to have zero arguments. At first glance
it seems that this should be safe enough, since memcmp() is surely not
allowed to fetch any bytes if its count argument is zero. However,
close reading of the C standard says that such calls have undefined
behavior, so we'd probably best avoid it.
Since the number of places doing this is quite small, and some other
places looking up zero-argument functions were already passing dummy
arrays, let's standardize on the latter solution rather than hacking
the function lookup code to avoid calling memcmp() in these cases.
I also added Asserts to catch any future violations of the new rule.
Given the utter lack of any evidence that this actually causes any
problems in the field, I don't feel a need to back-patch this change.
Per report from Piotr Stefaniak, though this is not his patch.

Commit b89e151054a05f0f6d356ca52e3b725dd0505e53 added the
ResolveCminCmaxDuringDecoding declaration to tqual.h, which uses an
HTAB parameter, without declaring HTAB. It accidentally fails to
fail to build with current sources because a declaration happens to
be included, directly or indirectly, in all source files that
currently use tqual.h before tqual.h is first included, but we
shouldn't count on that. Since an opaque declaration is enough
here, just use that, as was done in snapmgr.h.
Backpatch to 9.4, where the HTAB reference was added to tqual.h.

This was essentially "broken" since 0c8eda62; but until more
recently (14e8803f) barriers usage in signal handlers was infrequent.
The failure to be reentrant was noticed because the test_shm_mq, which
uses memory barriers at a high frequency, occasionally got stuck on some
solaris buildfarm animals. Turns out, those machines use sun studio
12.1, which doesn't yet have efficient memory barrier support. A machine
with a newer sun studio did not fail. Forcing the barrier fallback to
be used on x86 allows to reproduce the problem.
The new fallback is to use kill(PostmasterPid, 0) based on the theory
that that'll always imply a barrier due to checking the liveliness of
PostmasterPid on systems old enough to need fallback support. It's hard
to come up with a good and performant fallback.
I'm not backpatching this for now - the problem isn't active in the back
branches, and we haven't backpatched barrier changes for
now. Additionally master looks entirely different than the back branches
due to the new atomics abstraction. It seems better to let this rest in
master, where the non-reentrancy actively causes a problem, and then
consider backpatching.

1. Replay of the WAL record for setting a bit in the visibility map
contained an assertion that a full-page image of that record type can only
occur with checksums enabled. But it can also happen with wal_log_hints, so
remove the assertion. Unlike checksums, wal_log_hints can be changed on the
fly, so it would be complicated to figure out if it was enabled at the time
that the WAL record was generated.
2. wal_log_hints has the same effect on the locking needed to read the LSN
of a page as data checksums. BufferGetLSNAtomic() didn't get the memo.
Backpatch to 9.4, where wal_log_hints was added.

Commit f3b5565dd4e59576be4c772da364704863e6a835 was a couple of bricks shy
of a load; specifically, it missed putting pg_trigger_tgrelid_tgname_index
into the relcache init file, because that index is not used by any
syscache. However, we have historically nailed that index into cache for
performance reasons. The upshot was that load_relcache_init_file always
decided that the init file was busted and silently ignored it, resulting
in a significant hit to backend startup speed.
To fix, reinstantiate RelationIdIsInInitFile() as a wrapper around
RelationSupportsSysCache(), which can know about additional relations
that should be in the init file despite being unknown to syscache.c.
Also install some guards against future mistakes of this type: make
write_relcache_init_file Assert that all nailed relations get written to
the init file, and make load_relcache_init_file emit a WARNING if it takes
the "wrong number of nailed relations" exit path. Now that we remove the
init files during postmaster startup, that case should never occur in the
field, even if we are starting a minor-version update that added or removed
rels from the nailed set. So the warning shouldn't ever be seen by end
users, but it will show up in the regression tests if somebody breaks this
logic.
Back-patch to all supported branches, like the previous commit.
