2020-04-11Clear dangling pointer to avoid bogus EXPLAIN printout in a corner case.Tom Lane
ExecReScanHashJoin will destroy the join's hash table if it expects that the inner relation will produce different rows on rescan. Up to now it's not bothered to clear the additional pointer to that hash table that exists in the child HashState node. However, it's possible for the query to terminate without building a fresh hash table (this happens if the outer relation is found to be empty during the final rescan). So we can end with a dangling pointer to a deleted hash table. That was harmless originally, but since 9.0 EXPLAIN ANALYZE has used that pointer to print hash table statistics. In debug builds this reproducibly results in garbage statistics. In non-debug builds there's frequently no ill effects, but in principle one could get wrong EXPLAIN ANALYZE output, or perhaps even a crash if free() has released the hashtable memory back to the OS. To fix, just make sure we clear the additional pointer when destroying the hash table. In problematic cases, EXPLAIN ANALYZE will then print no hashtable statistics (reverting to its pre-9.0 behavior). This isn't ideal, but since the problem manifests only in unusual corner cases, it's hard to justify taking any risks to do better in the back branches. A follow-on patch will improve matters in HEAD. Konstantin Knizhnik and Tom Lane, per diagnosis by Thomas Munro of a trouble report from Alvaro Herrera.

2020-04-09Further cleanup of ts_headline code.Tom Lane
Suppress a probably-meaningless uninitialized-variable warning (induced by my previous patch, I'm sorry to say). Improve mark_hl_fragments()'s test for overlapping cover strings: it failed to consider the possibility that the current string is strictly within another one. That's unlikely given the preceding splitting into MaxWords fragments, but I don't think it's impossible. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16345-2e0cf5cddbdcd3b4@postgresql.org
2020-04-09Fix default text search parser's ts_headline code for phrase queries.Tom Lane
This code could produce very poor results when asked to highlight a string based on a query using phrase-match operators. The root cause is that hlCover(), which is supposed to find a minimal substring that matches the query, was written assuming that word position is not significant. I'm only 95% convinced that its algorithm was correct even for plain AND/OR queries; but it definitely fails completely for phrase matches, causing it to possibly not identify a cover string at all. Hence, rewrite hlCover() with a less-tense algorithm that just tries all the possible substrings, earlier and shorter ones first. (This is not as bad as it sounds performance-wise, because all of the string matching has been done already: the repeated tsquery match checks boil down to pointer comparisons.) Unfortunately, since that approach produces more candidate cover strings than before, it also exposes that there were bugs in the heuristics in mark_hl_words() for selecting a best cover string. Fixes there include: * Do not apply the ShortWord filter to words that appear in the query. * Remove a misguided optimization for quickly rejecting a cover. * Fix order-of-operation bug that could cause computation of a wrong figure of merit (poslen) when shortening a cover. * Change the preference rule so that candidate headlines that do not include their whole cover string (after MaxWords trimming) are lowest priority, since they may not actually satisfy the user's query. This results in some changes in existing regression test cases, but they all seem reasonable. Note in particular that the tests involving strings like "1 2 3" were previously being affected by the ShortWord filter, masking the normal matching behavior. Per bug #16345 from Augustinas Jokubauskas; the new test cases are based on that example. Back-patch to 9.6 where phrase search was added to tsquery.

Nonetheless, back-patch as far as 9.6, because a followup bug-fixing commit depends on this. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16345-2e0cf5cddbdcd3b4@postgresql.org

2020-04-07Adjust bytea get_bit/set_bit to cope with bytea strings > 256MB.Tom Lane
Since the existing bit number argument can't exceed INT32_MAX, it's not possible for these functions to manipulate bits beyond the first 256MB of a bytea value. However, it'd be good if they could do at least that much, and not fall over entirely for longer bytea values. Adjust the comparisons to be done in int64 arithmetic so that works. Also tweak the error reports to show sane values in case of overflow. Also add some test cases to improve the miserable code coverage of these functions.

Luckily the consequences of that having happened wouldn't be too bad - the page wouldn't be pruned for a while. Avoid that risk by using TransactionXmin instead.

2020-04-03Fix bugs in gin_fuzzy_search_limit processing.Tom Lane
entryGetItem()'s three code paths each contained bugs associated with filtering the entries for gin_fuzzy_search_limit. The posting-tree path failed to advance "advancePast" after having decided to filter an item. If we ran out of items on the current page and needed to advance to the next, what would actually happen is that entryLoadMoreItems() would re-load the same page. Eventually, the random dropItem() test would accept one of the same items it'd previously rejected, and we'd move on --- but it could take awhile with small gin_fuzzy_search_limit. To add insult to injury, this case would inevitably cause entryLoadMoreItems() to decide it needed to re-descend from the root, making things even slower. The posting-list path failed to implement gin_fuzzy_search_limit filtering at all, so that all entries in the posting list would be returned. The bitmap-result path used a "gotitem" variable that it failed to update in the one place where it'd actually make a difference, ie at the one "continue" statement. I think this was unreachable in practice, because if we'd looped around then it shouldn't be the case that the entries on the new page are before advancePast. Still, the "gotitem" variable was contributing nothing to either clarity or correctness, so get rid of it. Refactor all three loops so that the termination conditions are more alike and less unreadable. The code coverage report showed that we had no coverage at all for the re-descend-from-root code path in entryLoadMoreItems(), which seems like a very bad thing, so add a test case that exercises it. We also had exactly no coverage for gin_fuzzy_search_limit, so add a simplistic test case that at least hits those code paths a little bit. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2020-04-03Fix bogus CALLED_AS_TRIGGER() defenses.Tom Lane
contrib/lo's lo_manage() thought it could use trigdata->tg_trigger->tgname in its error message about not being called as a trigger. That naturally led to a core dump. unique_key_recheck() figured it could Assert that fcinfo->context is a TriggerData node in advance of having checked that it's being called as a trigger. That's harmless in production builds, and perhaps not that easy to reach in any case, but it's logically wrong.

2020-04-01Check equality semantics for unique indexes on partitioned tables.Tom Lane
We require the partition key to be a subset of the set of columns being made unique, so that physically-separate indexes on the different partitions are sufficient to enforce the uniqueness constraint. The existing code checked that the listed columns appear, but did not inquire into the index semantics, which is a serious oversight given that different index opclasses might enforce completely different notions of uniqueness. Ideally, perhaps, we'd just match the partition key opfamily to the index opfamily. But hash partitioning uses hash opfamilies which we can't directly match to btree opfamilies. Hence, look up the equality operator in each family, and accept if it's the same operator. This should be okay in a fairly general sense, since the equality operator ought to precisely represent the opfamily's notion of uniqueness. A remaining weak spot is that we don't have a cross-index-AM notion of which opfamily member is "equality". But we know which one to use for hash and btree AMs, and those are the only two that are relevant here at present. (Any non-core AMs that know how to enforce equality are out of luck, for now.)

2020-03-31Teach pg_ls_dir_files() to ignore ENOENT failures from stat().Tom Lane
Buildfarm experience shows that this function can fail with ENOENT if some other process unlinks a file between when we read the directory entry and when we try to stat() it. The problem is old but we had not noticed it until 085b6b667 added regression test coverage. To fix, just ignore ENOENT failures. There is one other case that this might hide: a symlink that points to nowhere. That seems okay though, at least better than erroring.

2020-03-30Be more careful about extracting encoding from locale strings on Windows.Tom Lane
GetLocaleInfoEx() can fail on strings that setlocale() was perfectly happy with. A common way for that to happen is if the locale string is actually a Unix-style string, say "et_EE.UTF-8". In that case, what's after the dot is an encoding name, not a Windows codepage number; blindly treating it as a codepage number led to failure, with a fairly silly error message. Hence, check to see if what's after the dot is all digits, and if not, treat it as a literal encoding name rather than a codepage number. This will do the right thing with many Unix-style locale strings, and produce a more sensible error message otherwise. Somewhat independently of that, treat a zero (CP_ACP) result from GetLocaleInfoEx() as meaning that we must use UTF-8 encoding. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2020-03-28Ensure snapshot is registered within ScanPgRelation().Andres Freund
In 9.4 I added support to use a historical snapshot in ScanPgRelation(), while adding logical decoding. Unfortunately a conflict with the concurrent removal of SnapshotNow was incorrectly resolved, leading to an unregistered snapshot being used. It is not correct to use an unregistered (or non-active) snapshot for anything non-trivial, because catalog invalidations can cause the snapshot to be invalidated. Luckily it seems unlikely to actively cause problems in practice, as ScanPgRelation() requires that we already have a lock on the relation, we only look for a single row, and we don't appear to rely on the result's tid to be correct. It however is clearly wrong and potential negative consequences would likely be hard to find. So it seems worth backpatching the fix, even without a concrete hazard.

2020-03-26Ensure that plpgsql cleans up cleanly during parallel-worker exit.Tom Lane
plpgsql_xact_cb ought to treat events XACT_EVENT_PARALLEL_COMMIT and XACT_EVENT_PARALLEL_ABORT like XACT_EVENT_COMMIT and XACT_EVENT_ABORT respectively, since its goal is to do process-local cleanup. This oversight caused plpgsql's end-of-transaction cleanup to not get done in parallel workers. Since a parallel worker will exit just after the transaction cleanup, the effects of this are limited. I couldn't find any case in the core code with user-visible effects, but perhaps there are some in extensions. In any case it's wrong, so let's fix it before it bites us not after. In passing, add some comments around the handling of expression evaluation resources in DO blocks. There's no live bug there, but it's quite unobvious what's happening; at least I thought so. This isn't related to the other issue, except that I found both things while poking at expression-evaluation performance. Back-patch the plpgsql_xact_cb fix to 9.5 where those event types were introduced, and the DO-block commentary to v11 where DO blocks gained the ability to issue COMMIT/ROLLBACK.

2020-03-23Fix potential crash after constraint violation errors in partitioned tables.Andres Freund
During the reporting of constraint violations for partitioned tables, ExecPartitionCheckEmitError(), ExecConstraints(), ExecWithCheckOptions() set the slot descriptor of the input slot to the root partition's tuple desc. That's generally problematic when the slot could be used by other routines, but can cause crashes after the introduction of slots with "fixed" tuple descriptors in ad7dbee368a. The problem likely escaped detection so far for two reasons: First, currently the only known way that these routines are used with a partitioned table that is not "owned" by partitioning code is when "fast defaults" are used for the child partition. Second, as an error is raised afterwards, an "external" slot that had its descriptor changed, is very unlikely to continue being used. Even though the issue currently is only known to cause a crash for 11 (as that has both fast defaults and "fixed" slot descriptors), it seems worth applying the fix to 10 too. Potentially changing random slots is hazardous. Regression tests will be added in a separate commit, as it seems best to add them for master and 12 too.

2020-03-23Fix our getopt_long's behavior for a command line argument of just "-".Tom Lane
src/port/getopt_long.c failed on such an argument, always seeing it as an unrecognized switch. This is unhelpful; better is to treat such an item as a non-switch argument. That behavior is what we find in GNU's getopt_long(); it's what src/port/getopt.c does; and it is required by POSIX for getopt(), which getopt_long() ought to be generally a superset of. Moreover, it's expected by ecpg, which intends an argument of "-" to mean "read from stdin". So fix it.

2020-03-21Skip WAL for new relfilenodes, under wal_level=minimal.Noah Misch
Until now, only selected bulk operations (e.g. COPY) did this. If a given relfilenode received both a WAL-skipping COPY and a WAL-logged operation (e.g. INSERT), recovery could lose tuples from the COPY. See src/backend/access/transam/README section "Skipping WAL for New RelFileNode" for the new coding rules. Maintainers of table access methods should examine that section. To maintain data durability, just before commit, we choose between an fsync of the relfilenode and copying its contents to WAL. A new GUC, wal_skip_threshold, guides that choice. If this change slows a workload that creates small, permanent relfilenodes under wal_level=minimal, try adjusting wal_skip_threshold. Users setting a timeout on COMMIT may need to adjust that timeout, and log_min_duration_statement analysis will reflect time consumption moving to COMMIT from commands like COPY. Internally, this requires a reliable determination of whether RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction() would unlink a relation's current relfilenode. Introduce rd_firstRelfilenodeSubid. Amend the specification of rd_createSubid such that the field is zero when a new rel has an old rd_node. Make relcache.c retain entries for certain dropped relations until end of transaction.

2020-03-14Restructure polymorphic-type resolution in funcapi.c.Tom Lane
resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and resolve_polymorphic_argtypes() failed to cover the case of having to resolve anyarray given only an anyrange input. The bug was masked if anyelement was also used (as either input or output), which probably helps account for our not having noticed. While looking at this I noticed that resolve_generic_type() would produce the wrong answer if asked to make that same resolution. ISTM that resolve_generic_type() is confusingly defined and overly complex, so rather than fix it, let's just make funcapi.c do the specific lookups it requires for itself. With this change, resolve_generic_type() is not used anywhere, so remove it in HEAD. In the back branches, leave it alone (complete with bug) just in case any external code is using it. While we're here, make some other refactoring adjustments in funcapi.c with an eye to upcoming future expansion of the set of polymorphic types: * Simplify quick-exit tests by adding an overall have_polymorphic_result flag. This is about a wash now but will be a win when there are more flags. * Reduce duplication of code between resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and resolve_polymorphic_argtypes(). * Don't bother to validate correct matching of anynonarray or anyenum; the parser should have done that, and even if it didn't, just doing "return false" here would lead to a very confusing, off-point error message. (Really, "return false" in these two functions should only occur if the call_expr isn't supplied or we can't obtain data type info from it.) * For the same reason, throw an elog rather than "return false" if we fail to resolve a polymorphic type. The bug's been there since we added anyrange, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/6093.1584202130@sss.pgh.pa.us
2020-03-13Preserve replica identity index across ALTER TABLE rewritePeter Eisentraut
If an index was explicitly set as replica identity index, this setting was lost when a table was rewritten by ALTER TABLE. Because this setting is part of pg_index but actually controlled by ALTER TABLE (not part of CREATE INDEX, say), we have to do some extra work to restore it.

2020-03-12Fix nextXid tracking bug on standbys (9.5-11 only).Thomas Munro
RecordKnownAssignedTransactionIds() should never move nextXid backwards. Before this commit, that could happen if some other code path had advanced it without advancing latestObservedXid. One consequence is that a well timed XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE could cause hot standby feedback messages to get confused and report an xmin from a future epoch, potentially allowing vacuum to run too soon on the primary. Repair, by making sure RecordKnownAssignedTransactionIds() can only move nextXid forwards. In release 12 and master, this was already done by commit 2fc7af5e, which consolidated similar code and straightened out this bug. Back-patch to supported releases before that.

2020-03-11Fix test case instability introduced in 085b6b667.Tom Lane
I forgot that the WAL directory might hold other files besides WAL segments, notably including new segments still being filled. That means a blind test for the first file's size being 16MB can fail. Restrict based on file name length to make it more robust. Per buildfarm.

2020-03-11Avoid holding a directory FD open across pg_ls_dir_files() calls.Tom Lane
This coding technique is undesirable because (a) it leaks the FD for the rest of the transaction if the SRF is not run to completion, and (b) allocated FDs are a scarce resource, but multiple interleaved uses of the relevant functions could eat many such FDs. In v11 and later, a query such as "SELECT pg_ls_waldir() LIMIT 1" yields a warning about the leaked FD, and the only reason there's no warning in earlier branches is that fd.c didn't whine about such leaks before commit 9cb7db3f0. Even disregarding the warning, it wouldn't be too hard to run a backend out of FDs with careless use of these SQL functions. Hence, rewrite the function so that it reads the directory within a single call, returning the results as a tuplestore rather than via value-per-call mode. There are half a dozen other built-in SRFs with similar problems, but let's fix this one to start with, just to see if the buildfarm finds anything wrong with the code. In passing, fix bogus error report for stat() failure: it was whining about the directory when it should be fingering the individual file. Doubtless a copy-and-paste error.

2020-03-11Avoid duplicates in ALTER ... DEPENDS ON EXTENSIONAlvaro Herrera
If the command is attempted for an extension that the object already depends on, silently do nothing. In particular, this means that if a database containing multiple such entries is dumped, the restore will silently do the right thing and record just the first one. (At least, in a world where pg_dump does dump such entries -- which it doesn't currently, but it will.) Backpatch to 9.6, where this kind of dependency was introduced.

2020-03-09Fix pg_dump/pg_restore to restore event triggers later.Tom Lane
Previously, event triggers were restored just after regular triggers (and FK constraints, which are basically triggers). This is risky since an event trigger, once installed, could interfere with subsequent restore commands. Worse, because event triggers don't have any particular dependencies on any post-data objects, a parallel restore would consider them eligible to be restored the moment the post-data phase starts, allowing them to also interfere with restoration of a whole bunch of objects that would have been restored before them in a serial restore. There's no way to completely remove the risk of a misguided event trigger breaking the restore, since if nothing else it could break other event triggers. But we can certainly push them to later in the process to minimize the hazard. To fix, tweak the RestorePass mechanism introduced by commit 3eb9a5e7c so that event triggers are handled as part of the post-ACL processing pass (renaming the "REFRESH" pass to "POST_ACL" to reflect its more general use). This will cause them to restore after everything except matview refreshes, which seems OK since matview refreshes really ought to run in the post-restore state of the database. In a parallel restore, event triggers and matview refreshes might be intermixed, but that seems all right as well. Also update the code and comments in pg_dump_sort.c so that its idea of how things are sorted agrees with what actually happens due to the RestorePass mechanism. This is mostly cosmetic: it'll affect the order of objects in a dump's TOC, but not the actual restore order. But not changing that would be quite confusing to somebody reading the code. Back-patch to all supported branches. Fabrízio de Royes Mello, tweaked a bit by me Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFcNs+ow1hmFox8P--3GSdtwz-S3Binb6ZmoP6Vk+Xg=K6eZNA@mail.gmail.com
2020-03-10Fix bug that causes to report waiting in PS display twice, in hot standby.Fujii Masao
Previously "waiting" could appear twice via PS in case of lock conflict in hot standby mode. Specifically this issue happend when the delay in WAL application determined by max_standby_archive_delay and max_standby_streaming_delay had passed but it took more than 500 msec to cancel all the conflicting transactions. Especially we can observe this easily by setting those delay parameters to -1. The cause of this issue was that WaitOnLock() and ResolveRecoveryConflictWithVirtualXIDs() added "waiting" to the process title in that case. This commit prevents ResolveRecoveryConflictWithVirtualXIDs() from reporting waiting in case of lock conflict, to fix the bug. Back-patch to all back branches.

2020-03-09Avoid assertion failure with targeted recovery in standby mode.Fujii Masao
At the end of recovery, standby mode is turned off to re-fetch the last valid record from archive or pg_wal. Previously, if recovery target was reached and standby mode was turned off while the current WAL source was stream, recovery could try to retrieve WAL file containing the last valid record unexpectedly from stream even though not in standby mode. This caused an assertion failure. That is, the assertion test confirms that WAL file should not be retrieved from stream if standby mode is not true. This commit moves back the current WAL source to archive if it's stream even though not in standby mode, to avoid that assertion failure. This issue doesn't cause the server to crash when built with assertion disabled. In this case, the attempt to retrieve WAL file from stream not in standby mode just fails. And then recovery tries to retrieve WAL file from archive or pg_wal. Back-patch to all supported branches.

2020-03-03Fix assertion failure with ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION and indexesMichael Paquier
Using ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION causes an assertion failure when attempting to work on a partitioned index, because partitioned indexes cannot have partition bounds. The grammar of ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION requires partition bounds, but not ALTER INDEX, so mixing ALTER TABLE with partitioned indexes is confusing. Hence, on HEAD, prevent ALTER TABLE to attach a partition if the relation involved is a partitioned index. On back-branches, as applications may rely on the existing behavior, just remove the culprit assertion.

2020-02-29Correctly re-use hash tables in buildSubPlanHash().Tom Lane
Commit 356687bd8 omitted to remove leftover code for destroying a hashed subplan's hash tables, with the result that the tables were always rebuilt not reused; this leads to severe memory leakage if a hashed subplan is re-executed enough times. Moreover, the code for reusing the hashnulls table had a typo that would have made it do the wrong thing if it were reached. Looking at the code coverage report shows severe under-coverage of the potential callers of ResetTupleHashTable, so add some test cases that exercise them.

2020-02-28Avoid failure if autovacuum tries to access a just-dropped temp namespace.Tom Lane
Such an access became possible when commit 246a6c8f7 added more aggressive cleanup of orphaned temp relations by autovacuum. Since autovacuum's snapshot might be slightly stale, it could attempt to access an already-dropped temp namespace, resulting in an assertion failure or null-pointer dereference. (In practice, since we don't drop temp namespaces automatically but merely recycle them, this situation could only arise if a superuser does a manual drop of a temp namespace. Still, that should be allowed.) The core of the bug, IMO, is that isTempNamespaceInUse and its callers failed to think hard about whether to treat "temp namespace isn't there" differently from "temp namespace isn't in use". In hopes of forestalling future mistakes of the same ilk, replace that function with a new one checkTempNamespaceStatus, which makes the same tests but returns a three-way enum rather than just a bool. isTempNamespaceInUse is gone entirely in HEAD; but just in case some external code is relying on it, keep it in the back branches, as a bug-compatible wrapper around the new function. Per report originally from Prabhat Kumar Sahu, investigated by Mahendra Singh and Michael Paquier; the final form of the patch is my fault. This replaces the failed fix attempt in a052f6cbb.
