2016-12-21Fix detection of unfinished Unicode surrogate pair at end of string.Tom Lane
The U&'...' and U&"..." syntaxes silently discarded a surrogate pair start (that is, a code between U+D800 and U+DBFF) if it occurred at the very end of the string. This seems like an obvious oversight, since we throw an error for every other invalid combination of surrogate characters, including the very same situation in E'...' syntax. This has been wrong since the pair processing was added (in 9.0), so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/19113.1482337898@sss.pgh.pa.us
2016-12-21Fix dumping of casts and transforms using built-in functionsStephen Frost
In pg_dump.c dumpCast() and dumpTransform(), we would happily ignore the cast or transform if it happened to use a built-in function because we weren't including the information about built-in functions when querying pg_proc from getFuncs(). Modify the query in getFuncs() to also gather information about functions which are used by user-defined casts and transforms (where "user-defined" means "has an OID >= FirstNormalObjectId"). This also adds to the TAP regression tests for 9.6 and master to cover these types of objects. Back-patch all the way for casts, back to 9.5 for transforms.

2016-12-21For 8.0 servers, get last built-in oid from pg_databaseStephen Frost
We didn't start ensuring that all built-in objects had OIDs less than 16384 until 8.1, so for 8.0 servers we still need to query the value out of pg_database. We need this, in particular, to distinguish which casts were built-in and which were user-defined. For HEAD, we only worry about going back to 8.0, for the back-branches, we also ensure that 7.0-7.4 work.

2016-12-16Fix off-by-one in memory allocation for quote_literal_cstr().Heikki Linnakangas
The calculation didn't take into account the NULL terminator. That lead to overwriting the palloc'd buffer by one byte, if the input consists entirely of backslashes. For example "format('%L', E'\\')". Fixes bug #14468. Backpatch to all supported versions. Report: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20161216105001.13334.42819%40wrigleys.postgresql.org
2016-12-15Sync our copy of the timezone library with IANA release tzcode2016j.Tom Lane
This is a trivial update (consisting in fact only in the addition of a comment). The point is just to get back to being synced with an official release of tzcode, rather than some ad-hoc point in their commit history, which is where commit 1f87181e1 left it.
2016-12-13Back-patch fcff8a575198478023ada8a48e13b50f70054766 as a bug fix.Kevin Grittner
When there is both a serialization failure and a unique violation, throw the former rather than the latter. When initially pushed, this was viewed as a feature to assist application framework developers, so that they could more accurately determine when to retry a failed transaction, but a test case presented by Ian Jackson has shown that this patch can prevent serialization anomalies in some cases where a unique violation is caught within a subtransaction, the work of that subtransaction is discarded, and no error is thrown. That makes this a bug fix, so it is being back-patched to all supported branches where it is not already present (i.e., 9.2 to 9.5).

2016-12-11Use "%option prefix" to set API names in ecpg's lexer.Tom Lane
Back-patch commit 92fb64983 into the pre-9.6 branches. Without this, ecpg fails to build with the latest version of flex. It's not unreasonable that people would want to compile our old branches with recent tools. Per report from Дилян Палаузов.

2016-12-11Build backend/parser/scan.l and interfaces/ecpg/preproc/pgc.l standalone.Tom Lane
Back-patch commit 72b1e3a21 into the pre-9.6 branches. As noted in the original commit, this has some extra benefits: we can narrow the scope of the -Wno-error flag that's forced on scan.c. Also, since these grammar and lexer files are so large, splitting them into separate build targets should have some advantages in build speed, particularly in parallel or ccache'd builds. However, the real reason for doing this now is that it avoids symbol- redefinition warnings (or worse) with the latest version of flex. It's not unreasonable that people would want to compile our old branches with recent tools. Per report from Дилян Палаузов.

2016-12-11Prevent crash when ts_rewrite() replaces a non-top-level subtree with null.Tom Lane
When ts_rewrite()'s replacement argument is an empty tsquery, it's supposed to simplify any operator nodes whose operand(s) become NULL; but it failed to do that reliably, because dropvoidsubtree() only examined the top level of the result tree. Rather than make a second recursive pass, let's just give the responsibility to dofindsubquery() to simplify while it's doing the main replacement pass. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. Artur Zakirov, with some cosmetic changes by me. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8737i01dew.fsf@credativ.de
2016-12-09Be more careful about Python refcounts while creating exception objects.Tom Lane
PLy_generate_spi_exceptions neglected to do Py_INCREF on the new exception objects, evidently supposing that PyModule_AddObject would do that --- but it doesn't. This left us in a situation where a Python garbage collection cycle could result in deletion of exception object(s), causing server crashes or wrong answers if the exception objects are used later in the session. In addition, PLy_generate_spi_exceptions didn't bother to test for a null result from PyErr_NewException, which at best is inconsistent with the code in PLy_add_exceptions. And PLy_add_exceptions, while it did do Py_INCREF on the exceptions it makes, waited to do that till after some PyModule_AddObject calls, creating a similar risk for failure if garbage collection happened within those calls. To fix, refactor to have just one piece of code that creates an exception object and adds it to the spiexceptions module, bumping the refcount first. Also, let's add an additional refcount to represent the pointer we're going to store in a C global variable or hash table. This should only matter if the user does something weird like delete the spiexceptions Python module, but lack of paranoia has caused us enough problems in PL/Python already. The fact that PyModule_AddObject doesn't do a Py_INCREF of its own explains the need for the Py_INCREF added in commit 4c966d920, so we can improve the comment about that; also, this means we really want to do that before not after the PyModule_AddObject call. The missing Py_INCREF in PLy_generate_spi_exceptions was reported and diagnosed by Rafa de la Torre; the other fixes by me. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2016-12-09Fix reporting of column typmods for multi-row VALUES constructs.Tom Lane
expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type() reported the exprType() and exprTypmod() values of the expressions in the first row of the VALUES as being the column type/typmod returned by the VALUES RTE. That's fine for the data type, since we coerce all expressions in a column to have the same common type. But we don't coerce them to have a common typmod, so it was possible for rows after the first one to return values that violate the claimed column typmod. This leads to the incorrect result seen in bug #14448 from Hassan Mahmood, as well as some other corner-case misbehaviors. The desired behavior is the same as we use in other type-unification cases: report the common typmod if there is one, but otherwise return -1 indicating no particular constraint. We fixed this in HEAD by deriving the typmods during transformValuesClause and storing them in the RTE, but that's not a feasible solution in the back branches. Instead, just use a brute-force approach of determining the correct common typmod during expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type(). Simple testing says that that doesn't really cost much, at least not in common cases where expandRTE() is only used once per query. It turns out that get_rte_attribute_type() is typically never used at all on VALUES RTEs, so the inefficiency there is of no great concern.

2016-12-08Log the creation of an init fork unconditionally.Robert Haas
Previously, it was thought that this only needed to be done for the benefit of possible standbys, so wal_level = minimal skipped it. But that's not safe, because during crash recovery we might replay XLOG_DBASE_CREATE or XLOG_TBLSPC_CREATE record which recursively removes the directory that contains the new init fork. So log it always. The user-visible effect of this bug is that if you create a database or tablespace, then create an unlogged table, then crash without checkpointing, then restart, accessing the table will fail, because the it won't have been properly reset. This commit fixes that. Michael Paquier, per a report from Konstantin Knizhnik. Wording of the comments per a suggestion from me.
2016-12-07Restore psql's SIGPIPE setting if popen() fails.Tom Lane
Ancient oversight in PageOutput(): if popen() fails, we'd better reset the SIGPIPE handler before returning stdout, because ClosePager() won't. Noticed while fixing the empty-PAGER issue.
2016-12-07Handle empty or all-blank PAGER setting more sanely in psql.Tom Lane
If the PAGER environment variable is set but contains an empty string, psql would pass it to "sh" which would silently exit, causing whatever query output we were printing to vanish entirely. This is quite mystifying; it took a long time for us to figure out that this was the cause of Joseph Brenner's trouble report. Rather than allowing that to happen, we should treat this as another way to specify "no pager". (We could alternatively treat it as selecting the default pager, but it seems more likely that the former is what the user meant to achieve by setting PAGER this way.) Nonempty, but all-white-space, PAGER values have the same behavior, and it's pretty easy to test for that, so let's handle that case the same way. Most other cases of faulty PAGER values will result in the shell printing some kind of complaint to stderr, which should be enough to diagnose the problem, so we don't need to work harder than this. (Note that there's been an intentional decision not to be very chatty about apparent failure returns from the pager process, since that may happen if, eg, the user quits the pager with control-C or some such. I'd just as soon not start splitting hairs about which exit codes might merit making our own report.) libpq's old PQprint() function was already on board with ignoring empty PAGER values, but for consistency, make it ignore all-white-space values as well. It's been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFfgvXWLOE2novHzYjmQK8-J6TmHz42G8f3X0SORM44+stUGmw@mail.gmail.com
2016-12-03Make pgwin32_putenv() visit debug CRTs.Noah Misch
This has no effect in the most conventional case, where no relevant DLL uses a debug build. For an example where it does matter, given a debug build of MIT Kerberos, the krb_server_keyfile parameter usually had no effect. Since nobody wants a Heisenbug, back-patch to 9.2 (all supported versions). Christian Ullrich, reviewed by Michael Paquier.
2016-12-03Remove wrong CloseHandle() call.Noah Misch
In accordance with its own documentation, invoke CloseHandle() only when directed in the documentation for the function that furnished the handle. GetModuleHandle() does not so direct. We have been issuing this call only in the rare event that a CRT DLL contains no "_putenv" symbol, so lack of bug reports is uninformative. Back-patch to 9.2 (all supported versions). Christian Ullrich, reviewed by Michael Paquier.
2016-12-03Refine win32env.c cosmetics.Noah Misch
Replace use of plain 0 as a null pointer constant. In comments, update terminology and lessen redundancy. Back-patch to 9.2 (all supported versions) for the convenience of back-patching the next two commits. Christian Ullrich and Noah Misch, reviewed (in earlier versions) by Michael Paquier.
2016-11-26Fix test about ignoring extension dependencies during extension scripts.Tom Lane
Commit 08dd23cec introduced an exception to the rule that extension member objects can only be dropped as part of dropping the whole extension, intending to allow such drops while running the extension's own creation or update scripts. However, the exception was only applied at the outermost recursion level, because it was modeled on a pre-existing check to ignore dependencies on objects listed in pendingObjects. Bug #14434 from Philippe Beaudoin shows that this is inadequate: in some cases we can reach an extension member object by recursion from another one. (The bug concerns the serial-sequence case; I'm not sure if there are other cases, but there might well be.) To fix, revert 08dd23cec's changes to findDependentObjects() and instead apply the creating_extension exception regardless of stack level. Having seen this example, I'm a bit suspicious that the pendingObjects logic is also wrong and such cases should likewise be allowed at any recursion level. However, changing that would interact in subtle ways with the recursion logic (at least it would need to be moved to after the recursing-from check). Given that the code's been like that a long time, I'll refrain from touching it without a clear example showing it's wrong. Back-patch to all active branches. In HEAD and 9.6, where suitable test infrastructure exists, add a regression test case based on the bug report.

2016-11-25Check for pending trigger events on far end when dropping an FK constraint.Tom Lane
When dropping a foreign key constraint with ALTER TABLE DROP CONSTRAINT, we refuse the drop if there are any pending trigger events on the named table; this ensures that we won't remove the pg_trigger row that will be consulted by those events. But we should make the same check for the referenced relation, else we might remove a due-to-be-referenced pg_trigger row for that relation too, resulting in "could not find trigger NNN" or "relation NNN has no triggers" errors at commit. Per bug #14431 from Benjie Gillam. Back-patch to all supported branches. Report: <20161124114911.6530.31200@wrigleys.postgresql.org>
2016-11-23Make sure ALTER TABLE preserves index tablespaces.Tom Lane
When rebuilding an existing index, ALTER TABLE correctly kept the physical file in the same tablespace, but it messed up the pg_class entry if the index had been in the database's default tablespace and "default_tablespace" was set to some non-default tablespace. This led to an inaccessible index. Fix by fixing pg_get_indexdef_string() to always include a tablespace clause, whether or not the index is in the default tablespace. The previous behavior was installed in commit 537e92e41, and I think it just wasn't thought through very clearly; certainly the possible effect of default_tablespace wasn't considered. There's some risk in changing the behavior of this function, but there are no other call sites in the core code. Even if it's being used by some third party extension, it's fairly hard to envision a usage that is okay with a tablespace clause being appended some of the time but can't handle it being appended all the time. Back-patch to all supported versions. Code fix by me, investigation and test cases by Michael Paquier. Discussion: <1479294998857-5930602.post@n3.nabble.com>
2016-11-21Fix PGLC_localeconv() to handle errors better.Tom Lane
The code was intentionally not very careful about leaking strdup'd strings in case of an error. That was forgivable probably, but it also failed to notice strdup() failures, which could lead to subsequent null-pointer-dereference crashes, since many callers unsurprisingly didn't check for null pointers in the struct lconv fields. An even worse problem is that it could throw error while we were setlocale'd to a non-C locale, causing unwanted behavior in subsequent libc calls. Rewrite to ensure that we cannot throw elog(ERROR) until after we've restored the previous locale settings, or at least attempted to. (I'm sorely tempted to make restore failure be a FATAL error, but will refrain for the moment.) Having done that, it's not much more work to ensure that we clean up strdup'd storage on the way out, too. This code is substantially the same in all supported branches, so back-patch all the way.

2016-11-20Prevent multicolumn expansion of "foo.*" in an UPDATE source expression.Tom Lane
Because we use transformTargetList() for UPDATE as well as SELECT tlists, the code accidentally tried to expand a "*" reference into several columns. This is nonsensical, because the UPDATE syntax provides exactly one target column to put the value into. The immediate result was that transformUpdateTargetList() got confused and reported "UPDATE target count mismatch --- internal error". It seems better to treat such a reference as a plain whole-row variable, as it would be in other contexts. (This could produce useful results when the target column is of composite type.) Fix by tweaking transformTargetList() to perform *-expansion only conditionally, depending on its exprKind parameter. Back-patch to 9.3. The problem exists further back, but a fix would be much more invasive before that, because transformTargetList() wasn't told what kind of list it was working on. Doesn't seem worth the trouble given the lack of field reports. (I only noticed it because I was checking the code while trying to improve the documentation about how we handle "foo.*".)

2016-11-15Allow DOS-style line endings in ~/.pgpass files.Tom Lane
On Windows, libc will mask \r\n line endings for us, since we read the password file in text mode. But that doesn't happen on Unix. People who share password files across both systems might have \r\n line endings in a file they use on Unix, so as a convenience, ignore trailing \r. Per gripe from Josh Berkus. In passing, put the existing check for empty line somewhere where it's actually useful, ie after stripping the newline not before.

2016-11-06Rationalize and document pltcl's handling of magic ".tupno" array element.Tom Lane
For a very long time, pltcl's spi_exec and spi_execp commands have had a behavior of storing the current row number as an element of output arrays, but this was never documented. Fix that. For an equally long time, pltcl_trigger_handler had a behavior of silently ignoring ".tupno" as an output column name, evidently so that the result of spi_exec could be used directly as a trigger result tuple. Not sure how useful that really is, but in any case it's bad that it would break attempts to use ".tupno" as an actual column name. We can fix it by not checking for ".tupno" until after we check for a column name match. This comports with the effective behavior of spi_exec[p] that ".tupno" is only magic when you don't have an actual column named that. In passing, wordsmith the description of returning modified tuples from a pltcl trigger. Noted while working on Jim Nasby's patch to support composite results from pltcl. The inability to return trigger tuples using ".tupno" as a column name is a bug, so back-patch to all supported branches.
2016-11-06More zic cleanup.Tom Lane
The workaround the IANA guys chose to get rid of the clang warning we'd silenced in commit 23ed2ba81 turns out not to satisfy Coverity. Go back to the previous solution, ie, remove the useless comparison to SIZE_MAX. (In principle, there could be machines out there where it's not useless because ptrdiff_t is wider than size_t. But the whole thing is pretty academic anyway, as we could never approach this limit for any sane estimate of the amount of data that zic will ever be asked to work with.) Also, s/lineno/lineno_t/g, because if we accept their decision to start using "lineno" as a typedef, it is going to have very unpleasant consequences in our next pgindent run. Noted that while fooling with pltcl yesterday.
2016-11-04Sync our copy of the timezone library with IANA tzcode master.Tom Lane
This patch absorbs some unreleased fixes for symlink manipulation bugs introduced in tzcode 2016g. Ordinarily I'd wait around for a released version, but in this case it seems like we could do with extra testing, in particular checking whether it works in EDB's VMware build environment. This corresponds to commit aec59156abbf8472ba201b6c7ca2592f9c10e077 in https://github.com/eggert/tz. Per a report from Sandeep Thakkar, building in an environment where hard links are not supported in the timezone data installation directory failed, because upstream code refactoring had broken the case of symlinking from an existing symlink. Further experimentation also showed that the symlinks were sometimes made incorrectly, with too many or too few "../"'s in the symlink contents. Back-patch of commit 1f87181e12beb067d21b79493393edcff14c190b.

2016-10-30Fix nasty performance problem in tsquery_rewrite().Tom Lane
tsquery_rewrite() tries to find matches to subsets of AND/OR conditions; for example, in the query 'a | b | c' the substitution subquery 'a | c' should match and lead to replacement of the first and third items. That's fine, but the matching algorithm apparently takes about O(2^N) for an N-clause query (I say "apparently" because the code is also both unintelligible and uncommented). We could probably do better than that even without any extra assumptions --- but actually, we know that the subclauses are sorted, indeed are depending on that elsewhere in this very same function. So we can just scan the two lists a single time to detect matches, as though we were doing a merge join. Also do a re-flattening call (QTNTernary()) in tsquery_rewrite_query, just to make sure that the tree fits the expectations of the next search cycle. I didn't try to devise a test case for this, but I'm pretty sure that the oversight could have led to failure to match in some cases where a match would be expected. Improve comments, and also stick a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into dofindsubquery, just in case it's still too slow for somebody. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2016-10-30Fix bogus tree-flattening logic in QTNTernary().Tom Lane
QTNTernary() contains logic to flatten, eg, '(a & b) & c' into 'a & b & c', which is all well and good, but it tries to do that to NOT nodes as well, so that '!!a' gets changed to '!a'. Explicitly restrict the conversion to be done only on AND and OR nodes, and add a test case illustrating the bug. In passing, provide some comments for the sadly naked functions in tsquery_util.c, and simplify some baroque logic in QTNFree(), which I think may have been leaking some items it intended to free. Noted while investigating a complaint from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to all supported versions.

2016-10-27Fix possible pg_basebackup failure on standby with "include WAL".Robert Haas
If a restartpoint flushed no dirty buffers, it could fail to update the minimum recovery point, leading to a minimum recovery point prior to the starting REDO location. perform_base_backup() would interpret that as meaning that no WAL files at all needed to be included in the backup, failing an internal sanity check. To fix, have restartpoints always update the minimum recovery point to just after the checkpoint record itself, so that the file (or files) containing the checkpoint record will always be included in the backup. Code by Amit Kapila, per a design suggestion by me, with some additional work on the code comment by me. Test case by Michael Paquier. Report by Kyotaro Horiguchi.

2016-10-23Avoid testing tuple visibility without buffer lock in RI_FKey_check().Tom Lane
Despite the argumentation I wrote in commit 7a2fe85b0, it's unsafe to do this, because in corner cases it's possible for HeapTupleSatisfiesSelf to try to set hint bits on the target tuple; and at least since 8.2 we have required the buffer content lock to be held while setting hint bits. The added regression test exercises one such corner case. Unpatched, it causes an assertion failure in assert-enabled builds, or otherwise would cause a hint bit change in a buffer we don't hold lock on, which given the right race condition could result in checksum failures or other data consistency problems. The odds of a problem in the field are probably pretty small, but nonetheless back-patch to all supported branches. Report: <19391.1477244876@sss.pgh.pa.us>
2016-10-20Fix EXPLAIN so that it doesn't emit invalid XML in corner cases.Tom Lane
With track_io_timing = on, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) will emit fields named like "I/O Read Time". The slash makes that invalid as an XML element name, so that adding FORMAT XML would produce invalid XML. We already have code in there to translate spaces to dashes, so let's generalize that to convert anything that isn't a valid XML name character, viz letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, and periods. We could just reject slashes, which would run a bit faster. But the fact that this went unnoticed for so long doesn't give me a warm feeling that we'd notice the next creative violation, so let's make it a permanent fix. Reported by Markus Winand, though this isn't his initial patch proposal. Back-patch to 9.2 where track_io_timing was added. The problem is only latent in 9.1, so I don't feel a need to fix it there.

DST law changes in Turkey. Historical corrections for America/Los_Angeles, Europe/Kirov, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Samara, and Europe/Ulyanovsk. Rename Asia/Rangoon to Asia/Yangon, with a backward compatibility link. The IANA crew continue their campaign to replace invented time zone abbrevations with numeric GMT offsets. This update changes numerous zones in Antarctica and the former Soviet Union, for instance Antarctica/Casey now reports "+08" not "AWST" in the pg_timezone_names view. I kept these abbreviations in the tznames/ data files, however, so that we will still accept them for input. (We may want to start trimming those files someday, but today is not that day.) An exception is that since IANA no longer claims that "AMT" is in use in Armenia for GMT+4, I replaced it in the Default file with GMT-4, corresponding to Amazon Time which is in use in South America. It may be that that meaning is also invented and IANA will drop it in a future update; but for now, it seems silly to give pride of place to a meaning not traceable to IANA over one that is.
2016-10-19Fix WAL-logging of FSM and VM truncation.Heikki Linnakangas
When a relation is truncated, it is important that the FSM is truncated as well. Otherwise, after recovery, the FSM can return a page that has been truncated away, leading to errors like: ERROR: could not read block 28991 in file "base/16390/572026": read only 0 of 8192 bytes We were using MarkBufferDirtyHint() to dirty the buffer holding the last remaining page of the FSM, but during recovery, that might in fact not dirty the page, and the FSM update might be lost. To fix, use the stronger MarkBufferDirty() function. MarkBufferDirty() requires us to do WAL-logging ourselves, to protect from a torn page, if checksumming is enabled. Also fix an oversight in visibilitymap_truncate: it also needs to WAL-log when checksumming is enabled. Analysis by Pavan Deolasee. Discussion: <CABOikdNr5vKucqyZH9s1Mh0XebLs_jRhKv6eJfNnD2wxTn=_9A@mail.gmail.com> Backpatch to 9.3, where we got data checksums.
2016-10-18Fix cidin() to handle values above 2^31 platform-independently.Tom Lane
CommandId is declared as uint32, and values up to 4G are indeed legal. cidout() handles them properly by treating the value as unsigned int. But cidin() was just using atoi(), which has platform-dependent behavior for values outside the range of signed int, as reported by Bart Lengkeek in bug #14379. Use strtoul() instead, as xidin() does. In passing, make some purely cosmetic changes to make xidin/xidout look more like cidin/cidout; the former didn't have a monopoly on best practice IMO. Neither xidin nor cidin make any attempt to throw error for invalid input. I didn't change that here, and am not sure it's worth worrying about since neither is really a user-facing type. The point is just to ensure that indubitably-valid inputs work as expected. It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

2016-10-14Fix assorted integer-overflow hazards in varbit.c.Tom Lane
bitshiftright() and bitshiftleft() would recursively call each other infinitely if the user passed INT_MIN for the shift amount, due to integer overflow in negating the shift amount. To fix, clamp to -VARBITMAXLEN. That doesn't change the results since any shift distance larger than the input bit string's length produces an all-zeroes result. Also fix some places that seemed inadequately paranoid about input typmods exceeding VARBITMAXLEN. While a typmod accepted by anybit_typmodin() will certainly be much less than that, at least some of these spots are reachable with user-chosen integer values.

2016-10-13Fix another bug in merging of inherited CHECK constraints.Tom Lane
It's not good for an inherited child constraint to be marked connoinherit; that would result in the constraint not propagating to grandchild tables, if any are created later. The code mostly prevented this from happening but there was one case that was missed. This is somewhat related to commit e55a946a8, which also tightened checks on constraint merging. Hence, back-patch to 9.2 like that one. This isn't so much because there's a concrete feature-related reason to stop there, as to avoid having more distinct behaviors than we have to in this area.

2016-10-10In PQsendQueryStart(), avoid leaking any left-over async result.Tom Lane
Ordinarily there would not be an async result sitting around at this point, but it appears that in corner cases there can be. Considering all the work we're about to launch, it's hardly going to cost anything noticeable to check. It's been like this forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.

2016-10-08Fix two bugs in merging of inherited CHECK constraints.Tom Lane
Historically, we've allowed users to add a CHECK constraint to a child table and then add an identical CHECK constraint to the parent. This results in "merging" the two constraints so that the pre-existing child constraint ends up with both conislocal = true and coninhcount > 0. However, if you tried to do it in the other order, you got a duplicate constraint error. This is problematic for pg_dump, which needs to issue separated ADD CONSTRAINT commands in some cases, but has no good way to ensure that the constraints will be added in the required order. And it's more than a bit arbitrary, too. The goal of complaining about duplicated ADD CONSTRAINT commands can be served if we reject the case of adding a constraint when the existing one already has conislocal = true; but if it has conislocal = false, let's just make the ADD CONSTRAINT set conislocal = true. In this way, either order of adding the constraints has the same end result. Another problem was that the code allowed creation of a parent constraint marked convalidated that is merged with a child constraint that is !convalidated. In this case, an inheritance scan of the parent table could emit some rows violating the constraint condition, which would be an unexpected result given the marking of the parent constraint as validated. Hence, forbid merging of constraints in this case. (Note: valid child and not-valid parent seems fine, so continue to allow that.) Per report from Benedikt Grundmann. Back-patch to 9.2 where we introduced possibly-not-valid check constraints. The second bug obviously doesn't apply before that, and I think the first doesn't either, because pg_dump only gets into this situation when dealing with not-valid constraints.

2016-10-08Remove user_relns() SRF from regression tests.Tom Lane
Back-patch commit 0dba54f1666ead71c54ce100b39efda67596d297 into the older branches. This test is almost as much of a patching hazard there as it is in HEAD, and it has no more reason to be needed than it does in HEAD. I went back as far as 9.2; I judged 9.1 not worth the trouble since it's on the verge of being EOL'd.
