2023-12-15Fix bugs in manipulation of large objects.Tom Lane
In v16 and up (since commit afbfc0298), large object ownership checking has been broken because object_ownercheck() didn't take care of the discrepancy between our object-address representation of large objects (classId == LargeObjectRelationId) and the catalog where their ownership info is actually stored (LargeObjectMetadataRelationId). This resulted in failures such as "unrecognized class ID: 2613" when trying to update blob properties as a non-superuser. Poking around for related bugs, I found that AlterObjectOwner_internal would pass the wrong classId to the PostAlterHook in the no-op code path where the large object already has the desired owner. Also, recordExtObjInitPriv checked for the wrong classId; that bug is only latent because the stanza is dead code anyway, but as long as we're carrying it around it should be less wrong. These bugs are quite old. In HEAD, we can reduce the scope for future bugs of this ilk by changing AlterObjectOwner_internal's API to let the translation happen inside that function, rather than requiring callers to know about it. A more bulletproof fix, perhaps, would be to start using LargeObjectMetadataRelationId as the dependency and object-address classId for blobs. However that has substantial risk of breaking third-party code; even within our own code, it'd create hassles for pg_dump which would have to cope with a version-dependent representation. For now, keep the status quo. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2650449.1702497209@sss.pgh.pa.us
2023-12-12Prevent tuples to be marked as dead in subtransactions on standbysMichael Paquier
Dead tuples are ignored and are not marked as dead during recovery, as it can lead to MVCC issues on a standby because its xmin may not match with the primary. This information is tracked by a field called "xactStartedInRecovery" in the transaction state data, switched on when starting a transaction in recovery. Unfortunately, this information was not correctly tracked when starting a subtransaction, because the transaction state used for the subtransaction did not update "xactStartedInRecovery" based on the state of its parent. This would cause index scans done in subtransactions to return inconsistent data, depending on how the xmin of the primary and/or the standby evolved. This is broken since the introduction of hot standby in efc16ea52067, so backpatch all the way down.

2023-12-11Be more wary about OpenSSL not setting errno on error.Tom Lane
OpenSSL will sometimes return SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL without having set errno; this is apparently a reflection of recv(2)'s habit of not setting errno when reporting EOF. Ensure that we treat such cases the same as read EOF. Previously, we'd frequently report them like "could not accept SSL connection: Success" which is confusing, or worse report them with an unrelated errno left over from some previous syscall. To fix, ensure that errno is zeroed immediately before the call, and report its value only when it's not zero afterwards; otherwise report EOF. For consistency, I've applied the same coding pattern in libpq's pqsecure_raw_read(). Bare recv(2) shouldn't really return -1 without setting errno, but in case it does we might as well cope. Per report from Andres Freund. Back-patch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20231208181451.deqnflwxqoehhxpe@awork3.anarazel.de
2023-12-11Fix an undetected deadlock due to apply worker.Amit Kapila
The apply worker needs to update the state of the subscription tables to 'READY' during the synchronization phase which requires locking the corresponding subscription. The apply worker also waits for the subscription tables to reach the 'SYNCDONE' state after holding the locks on the subscription and the wait is done using WaitLatch. The 'SYNCDONE' state is changed by tablesync workers again by locking the corresponding subscription. Both the state updates use AccessShareLock mode to lock the subscription, so they can't block each other. However, a backend can simultaneously try to acquire a lock on the same subscription using AccessExclusiveLock mode to alter the subscription. Now, the backend's wait on a lock can sneak in between the apply worker and table sync worker causing deadlock. In other words, apply_worker waits for tablesync worker which waits for backend, and backend waits for apply worker. This is not detected by the deadlock detector because apply worker uses WaitLatch. The fix is to release existing locks in apply worker before it starts to wait for tablesync worker to change the state.

2023-12-01Check collation when creating partitioned indexPeter Eisentraut
When creating a partitioned index, the partition key must be a subset of the index's columns. But this currently doesn't check that the collations between the partition key and the index definition match. So you can construct a unique index that fails to enforce uniqueness. (This would most likely involve a nondeterministic collation, so it would have to be crafted explicitly and is not something that would just happen by accident.) This patch adds the required collation check. As a result, any previously allowed unique index that has a collation mismatch would no longer be allowed to be created.

2023-11-28Use BIO_{get,set}_app_data instead of BIO_{get,set}_data.Tom Lane
We should have done it this way all along, but we accidentally got away with using the wrong BIO field up until OpenSSL 3.2. There, the library's BIO routines that we rely on use the "data" field for their own purposes, and our conflicting use causes assorted weird behaviors up to and including core dumps when SSL connections are attempted. Switch to using the approved field for the purpose, i.e. app_data. While at it, remove our configure probes for BIO_get_data as well as the fallback implementation. BIO_{get,set}_app_data have been there since long before any OpenSSL version that we still support, even in the back branches.

2023-11-27Fix race condition with BIO methods initialization in libpq with threadsMichael Paquier
The libpq code in charge of creating per-connection SSL objects was prone to a race condition when loading the custom BIO methods needed by my_SSL_set_fd(). As BIO methods are stored as a static variable, the initialization of a connection could fail because it could be possible to have one thread refer to my_bio_methods while it is being manipulated by a second concurrent thread. This error has been introduced by 8bb14cdd33de, that has removed ssl_config_mutex around the call of my_SSL_set_fd(), that itself sets the custom BIO methods used in libpq. Like previously, the BIO method initialization is now protected by the existing ssl_config_mutex, itself initialized earlier for WIN32. While on it, document that my_bio_methods is protected by ssl_config_mutex, as this can be easy to miss.

2023-11-23Fix timing-dependent failure in GSSAPI data transmission.Tom Lane
When using GSSAPI encryption in non-blocking mode, libpq sometimes failed with "GSSAPI caller failed to retransmit all data needing to be retried". The cause is that pqPutMsgEnd rounds its transmit request down to an even multiple of 8K, and sometimes that can lead to not requesting a write of data that was requested to be written (but reported as not written) earlier. That can upset pg_GSS_write's logic for dealing with not-yet-written data, since it's possible the data in question had already been incorporated into an encrypted packet that we weren't able to send during the previous call. We could fix this with a one-or-two-line hack to disable pqPutMsgEnd's round-down behavior, but that seems like making the caller work around a behavior that pg_GSS_write shouldn't expose in this way. Instead, adjust pg_GSS_write to never report a partial write: it either reports a complete write, or reflects the failure of the lower-level pqsecure_raw_write call. The requirement still exists for the caller to present at least as much data as on the previous call, but with the caller-visible write start point not moving there is no temptation for it to present less. We lose some ability to reclaim buffer space early, but I doubt that that will make much difference in practice. This also gets rid of a rather dubious assumption that "any interesting failure condition (from pqsecure_raw_write) will recur on the next try". We've not seen failure reports traceable to that, but I've never trusted it particularly and am glad to remove it. Make the same adjustments to the equivalent backend routine be_gssapi_write(). It is probable that there's no bug on the backend side, since we don't have a notion of nonblock mode there; but we should keep the logic the same to ease future maintenance.

2023-11-18Guard against overflow in interval_mul() and interval_div().Dean Rasheed
Commits 146604ec43 and a898b409f6 added overflow checks to interval_mul(), but not to interval_div(), which contains almost identical code, and so is susceptible to the same kinds of overflows. In addition, those checks did not catch all possible overflow conditions. Add additional checks to the "cascade down" code in interval_mul(), and copy all the overflow checks over to the corresponding code in interval_div(), so that they both generate "interval out of range" errors, rather than returning bogus results.

2023-11-17llvmjit: Use explicit LLVMContextRef for inliningDaniel Gustafsson
When performing inlining LLVM unfortunately "leaks" types (the types survive and are usable, but a new round of inlining will recreate new structurally equivalent types). This accumulation will over time amount to a memory leak which for some queries can be large enough to trigger the OOM process killer. To avoid accumulation of types, all IR related data is stored in an LLVMContextRef which is dropped and recreated in order to release all types. Dropping and recreating incurs overhead, so it will be done only after 100 queries. This is a heuristic which might be revisited, but until we can get the size of the context from LLVM we are flying a bit blind. This issue has been reported several times, there may be more references to it in the archives on top of the threads linked below. This is a backpatch of 9dce22033d5 to all supported branches.

2023-11-16Ensure we preprocess expressions before checking their volatility.Tom Lane
contain_mutable_functions and contain_volatile_functions give reliable answers only after expression preprocessing (specifically eval_const_expressions). Some places understand this, but some did not get the memo --- which is not entirely their fault, because the problem is documented only in places far away from those functions. Introduce wrapper functions that allow doing the right thing easily, and add commentary in hopes of preventing future mistakes from copy-and-paste of code that's only conditionally safe. Two actual bugs of this ilk are fixed here. We failed to preprocess column GENERATED expressions before checking mutability, so that the code could fail to detect the use of a volatile function default-argument expression, or it could reject a polymorphic function that is actually immutable on the datatype of interest. Likewise, column DEFAULT expressions weren't preprocessed before determining if it's safe to apply the attmissingval mechanism. A false negative would just result in an unnecessary table rewrite, but a false positive could allow the attmissingval mechanism to be used in a case where it should not be, resulting in unexpected initial values in a new column. In passing, re-order the steps in ComputePartitionAttrs so that its checks for invalid column references are done before applying expression_planner, rather than after. The previous coding would not complain if a partition expression contains a disallowed column reference that gets optimized away by constant folding, which seems to me to be a behavior we do not want.

2023-11-13Don't try to dump RLS policies or security labels for extension objects.Tom Lane
checkExtensionMembership() set the DUMP_COMPONENT_SECLABEL and DUMP_COMPONENT_POLICY flags for extension member objects, even though we lack any infrastructure for tracking extensions' initial settings of these properties. This is not OK. The result was that a dump would always include commands to set these properties for extension objects that have them, with at least three negative consequences: 1. The restoring user might not have privilege to set these properties on these objects. 2. The properties might be incorrect/irrelevant for the version of the extension that's installed in the destination database. 3. The dump itself might fail, in the case of RLS properties attached to extension tables that the dumping user lacks privilege to LOCK. (That's because we must get at least AccessShareLock to ensure that we don't fail while trying to decompile the RLS expressions.) When and if somebody cares to invent initial-state infrastructure for extensions' RLS policies and security labels, we could think about finding another way around problem #3. But in the absence of such infrastructure, this whole thing is just wrong and we shouldn't do it. (Note: this applies only to ordinary dumps; binary-upgrade dumps still dump and restore extension member objects separately, with all properties.) Tom Lane and Jacob Champion.

2023-11-13Don't release index root page pin in ginFindParents().Tom Lane
It's clearly stated in the comments that ginFindParents() must keep the pin on the index's root page that's associated with the topmost GinBtreeStack item. However, the code path for the case that the desired downlink has been pushed down to the next index level ignored this proviso, and would release the pin anyway if we were still examining the root level. That led to an assertion failure or "buffer NNNN is not owned by resource owner" error later, when we try to release the pin again at the end of the insertion. This is quite hard to reproduce, since it can only happen if an index root page split occurs concurrently with our own insertion.

2023-11-06Detect integer overflow while computing new array dimensions.Tom Lane
array_set_element() and related functions allow an array to be enlarged by assigning to subscripts outside the current array bounds. While these places were careful to check that the new bounds are allowable, they neglected to consider the risk of integer overflow in computing the new bounds. In edge cases, we could compute new bounds that are invalid but get past the subsequent checks, allowing bad things to happen. Memory stomps that are potentially exploitable for arbitrary code execution are possible, and so is disclosure of server memory. To fix, perform the hazardous computations using overflow-detecting arithmetic routines, which fortunately exist in all still-supported branches. The test cases added for this generate (after patching) errors that mention the value of MaxArraySize, which is platform-dependent. Rather than introduce multiple expected-files, use psql's VERBOSITY parameter to suppress the printing of the message text. v11 psql lacks that parameter, so omit the tests in that branch. Our thanks to Pedro Gallegos for reporting this problem. Security: CVE-2023-5869
2023-11-06Compute aggregate argument types correctly in transformAggregateCall().Tom Lane
transformAggregateCall() captures the datatypes of the aggregate's arguments immediately to construct the Aggref.aggargtypes list. This seems reasonable because the arguments have already been transformed --- but there is an edge case where they haven't been. Specifically, if we have an unknown-type literal in an ANY argument position, nothing will have been done with it earlier. But if we also have DISTINCT, then addTargetToGroupList() converts the literal to "text" type, resulting in the aggargtypes list not matching the actual runtime type of the argument. The end result is that the aggregate tries to interpret a "text" value as being of type "unknown", that is a zero-terminated C string. If the text value contains no zero bytes, this could result in disclosure of server memory following the text literal value. To fix, move the collection of the aggargtypes list to the end of transformAggregateCall(), after DISTINCT has been handled. This requires slightly more code, but not a great deal.

Pacific/Enderbury got renamed to Pacific/Kanton in tzdata 2021b, so that in distros that still have this entry it's just a symlink to Pacific/Kanton anyway. So one answer would be to redefine PHOT as Pacific/Kanton. However, then things would fail if the installed tzdata predates 2021b, which is recent enough that that seems like a real problem. Instead, let's just remove PHOT from the default list. That seems likely to affect nobody in the real world, because (a) it was an abbreviation that the tzdb crew made up in the first place, with no evidence of real-world usage, and (b) the total human population of the Phoenix Islands is less than two dozen persons, per Wikipedia. If anyone does use this zone abbreviation they can easily put it back via a custom abbreviations file. We'll keep PHOT in the Pacific.txt reference file, but change it to Pacific/Kanton there, as that definition seems more likely to be useful to future readers of that file.

2023-10-24jit: Adjust back-patch of f90b4a84 to 12 and 13.Thomas Munro
While back-patching f90b4a84, I missed that branches before REL_14_STABLE did some (accidental?) type punning in a function parameter, and failed to adjust these two branches accordingly. That didn't seem to cause a problem for newer LLVM versions or non-debug builds, but older debug builds would fail a type cross-check assertion. Fix by supplying the correct function argument type. In REL_14_STABLE the same change was made by commit df99ddc7. Per build farm animal xenodermus, which runs a debug build of LLVM 6 with jit_above_cost=0.

2023-10-20Dodge a compiler bug affecting timetz_zone/timetz_izone.Tom Lane
This avoids a compiler bug occurring in AIX's xlc, even in pretty late-model revisions. Buildfarm testing has now confirmed that only 64-bit xlc is affected. Although we are contemplating dropping support for xlc in v17, it's still supported in the back branches, so we need this fix. Back-patch of code changes from HEAD commit 19fa97731.

2023-10-18Improve pglz_decompress's defenses against corrupt compressed data.Tom Lane
When processing a match tag, check to see if the claimed "off" is more than the distance back to the output buffer start. If it is, then the data is corrupt, and what's more we would fetch from outside the buffer boundaries and potentially incur a SIGSEGV. (Although the odds of that seem relatively low, given that "off" can't be more than 4K.) Back-patch to v13; before that, this function wasn't really trying to protect against bad data.

2023-10-18jit: Support opaque pointers in LLVM 16.Thomas Munro
Remove use of LLVMGetElementType() and provide the type of all pointers to LLVMBuildXXX() functions when emitting IR, as required by modern LLVM versions[1]. * For LLVM <= 14, we'll still use the old LLVMBuildXXX() functions. * For LLVM == 15, we'll continue to do the same, explicitly opting out of opaque pointer mode. * For LLVM >= 16, we'll use the new LLVMBuildXXX2() functions that take the extra type argument. The difference is hidden behind some new IR emitting wrapper functions l_load(), l_gep(), l_call() etc. The change is mostly mechanical, except that at each site the correct type had to be provided. In some places we needed to do some extra work to get functions types, including some new wrappers for C++ APIs that are not yet exposed by in LLVM's C API, and some new "example" functions in llvmjit_types.c because it's no longer possible to start from the function pointer type and ask for the function type. Back-patch to 12, because it's a little tricker in 11 and we agreed not to put the latest LLVM support into the upcoming final release of 11.

2023-10-17windows: msvc: Define STDIN/OUT/ERR_FILENO.Nathan Bossart
This commit (c290e79cf0) was originally back-patched to v15. Commit 97550c0711 added a new use of STDERR_FILENO, and it was back-patched all the way to v11, thus breaking MSVC builds for v11 through v14. Since STDERR_FILENO is now needed on older versions, let's back-patch c290e79cf0 down to v11, too. Here follows the original commit message describing the change: Because they are not available we've used _fileno(stdin) in some places, but that doesn't reliably work, because stdin might be closed. This is the prerequisite of the subsequent commit, fixing a failure introduced in 76e38b37a5.

2023-10-17Back-patch test cases for timetz_zone/timetz_izone.Tom Lane
Per code coverage reports, we had zero regression test coverage of these functions. That came back to bite us, as apparently that's allowed us to miss discovering misbehavior of this code with AIX's xlc compiler. Install relevant portions of the test cases added in 97957fdba, 2f0472030, 19fa97731. (Assuming the expected outcome that the xlc problem does appear in back branches, a code fix will follow.)

2023-10-17Avoid calling proc_exit() in processes forked by system().Nathan Bossart
The SIGTERM handler for the startup process immediately calls proc_exit() for the duration of the restore_command, i.e., a call to system(). This system() call forks a new process to execute the shell command, and this child process inherits the parent's signal handlers. If both the parent and child processes receive SIGTERM, both will attempt to call proc_exit(). This can end badly. For example, both processes will try to remove themselves from the PGPROC shared array. To fix this problem, this commit adds a check in StartupProcShutdownHandler() to see whether MyProcPid == getpid(). If they match, this is the parent process, and we can proc_exit() like before. If they do not match, this is a child process, and we just emit a message to STDERR (in a signal safe manner) and _exit(), thereby skipping any problematic exit callbacks. This commit also adds checks in proc_exit(), ProcKill(), and AuxiliaryProcKill() that verify they are not being called within such child processes.

2023-10-16Ensure we have a snapshot while dropping ON COMMIT DROP temp tables.Tom Lane
Dropping a temp table could entail TOAST table access to clean out toasted catalog entries, such as large pg_constraint.conbin strings for complex CHECK constraints. If we did that via ON COMMIT DROP, we triggered the assertion in init_toast_snapshot(), because there was no provision for setting up a snapshot for the drop actions. Fix that. (I assume here that the adjacent truncation actions for ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS don't have a similar problem: it doesn't seem like nontransactional truncations would need to touch any toasted fields. If that proves wrong, we could refactor a bit to have the same snapshot acquisition cover that too.) The test case added here does not fail before v15, because that assertion was added in 277692220 which was not back-patched. However, the race condition the assertion warns of surely exists further back, so back-patch to all supported branches. Per report from Richard Guo.

2023-10-16Try to handle torn reads of pg_control in frontend.Thomas Munro
Some of our src/bin tools read the control file without any kind of interlocking against concurrent writes from the server. At least ext4 and ntfs can expose partially modified contents when you do that. For now, we'll try to tolerate this by retrying up to 10 times if the checksum doesn't match, until we get two reads in a row with the same bad checksum. This is not guaranteed to reach the right conclusion, but it seems very likely to. Thanks to Tom Lane for this suggestion. Various ideas for interlocking or atomicity were considered too complicated, unportable or expensive given the lack of field reports, but remain open for future reconsideration. Back-patch as far as 12. It doesn't seem like a good idea to put a heuristic change for a very rare problem into the final release of 11. Reviewed-by: Anton A.

2023-10-14Dissociate btequalimage() from interval_ops, ending its deduplication.Noah Misch
Under interval_ops, some equal values are distinguishable. One such pair is '24:00:00' and '1 day'. With that being so, btequalimage() breaches the documented contract for the "equalimage" btree support function. This can cause incorrect results from index-only scans. Users should REINDEX any btree indexes having interval-type columns. After updating, pg_amcheck will report an error for almost all such indexes. This fix makes interval_ops simply omit the support function, like numeric_ops does. Back-pack to v13, where btequalimage() first appeared. In back branches, for the benefit of old catalog content, btequalimage() code will return false for type "interval". Going forward, back-branch initdb will include the catalog change.
