2017-11-25Repair failure with SubPlans in multi-row VALUES lists.Tom Lane
When nodeValuesscan.c was written, it was impossible to have a SubPlan in VALUES --- any sub-SELECT there would have to be uncorrelated and thereby would produce an InitPlan instead. We therefore took a shortcut in the logic that throws away a ValuesScan's per-row expression evaluation data structures. This was broken by the introduction of LATERAL however; a sub-SELECT containing a lateral reference produces a correlated SubPlan. The cleanest fix for this would be to give up the optimization of discarding the expression eval state. But that still seems pretty unappetizing for long VALUES lists. It seems to work to just prevent the subexpressions from hooking into the ValuesScan node's subPlan list, so let's do that and see how well it works. (If this breaks, due to additional connections between the subexpressions and the outer query structures, we might consider compromises like throwing away data only for VALUES rows not containing SubPlans.) Per bug #14924 from Christian Duta. Back-patch to 9.3 where LATERAL was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20171124120836.1463.5310@wrigleys.postgresql.org
2017-11-25Improve planner's handling of set-returning functions in grouping columns.Tom Lane
Improve query_is_distinct_for() to accept SRFs in the targetlist when we can prove distinctness from a DISTINCT clause. In that case the de-duplication will surely happen after SRF expansion, so the proof still works. Continue to punt in the case where we'd try to prove distinctness from GROUP BY (or, in the future, source relations). To do that, we'd have to determine whether the SRFs were in the grouping columns or elsewhere in the tlist, and it still doesn't seem worth the trouble. But this trivial change allows us to recognize that "SELECT DISTINCT unnest(foo) FROM ..." produces unique-ified output, which seems worth having. Also, fix estimate_num_groups() to consider the possibility of SRFs in the grouping columns. Its failure to do so was masked before v10 because grouping_planner() scaled up plan rowcount estimates by the estimated SRF multiplier after performing grouping. That doesn't happen anymore, which is more correct, but it means we need an adjustment in the estimate for the number of groups. Failure to do this leads to an underestimate for the number of output rows of subqueries like "SELECT DISTINCT unnest(foo)" compared to what 9.6 and earlier estimated, thus breaking plan choices in some cases. Per report from Dmitry Shalashov. Back-patch to v10 to avoid degraded plan choices compared to previous releases.

2017-11-23Fix handling of NULLs returned by aggregate combine functions.Andres Freund
When strict aggregate combine functions, used in multi-stage/parallel aggregation, returned NULL, we didn't check for that, invoking the combine function with NULL the next round, despite it being strict. The equivalent code invoking normal transition functions has a check for that situation, which did not get copied in a7de3dc5c346. Fix the bug by adding the equivalent check. Based on a quick look I could not find any strict combine functions in core actually returning NULL, and it doesn't seem very likely external users have done so. So this isn't likely to have caused issues in practice. Add tests verifying transition / combine functions returning NULL is tested.

2017-11-21Provide for forward compatibility with future minor protocol versions.Robert Haas
Previously, any attempt to request a 3.x protocol version other than 3.0 would lead to a hard connection failure, which made the minor protocol version really no different from the major protocol version and precluded gentle protocol version breaks. Instead, when the client requests a 3.x protocol version where x is greater than 0, send the new NegotiateProtocolVersion message to convey that we support only 3.0. This makes it possible to introduce new minor protocol versions without requiring a connection retry when the server is older. In addition, if the startup packet includes name/value pairs where the name starts with "_pq_.", assume that those are protocol options, not GUCs. Include those we don't support (i.e. all of them, at present) in the NegotiateProtocolVersion message so that the client knows they were not understood. This makes it possible for the client to request previously-unsupported features without bumping the protocol version at all; the client can tell from the server's response whether the option was understood. It will take some time before servers that support these new facilities become common in the wild; to speed things up and make things easier for a future 3.1 protocol version, back-patch to all supported releases.

2017-11-14Prevent int128 from requiring more than MAXALIGN alignment.Tom Lane
Our initial work with int128 neglected alignment considerations, an oversight that came back to bite us in bug #14897 from Vincent Lachenal. It is unsurprising that int128 might have a 16-byte alignment requirement; what's slightly more surprising is that even notoriously lax Intel chips sometimes enforce that. Raising MAXALIGN seems out of the question: the costs in wasted disk and memory space would be significant, and there would also be an on-disk compatibility break. Nor does it seem very practical to try to allow some data structures to have more-than-MAXALIGN alignment requirement, as we'd have to push knowledge of that throughout various code that copies data structures around. The only way out of the box is to make type int128 conform to the system's alignment assumptions. Fortunately, gcc supports that via its __attribute__(aligned()) pragma; and since we don't currently support int128 on non-gcc-workalike compilers, we shouldn't be losing any platform support this way. Although we could have just done pg_attribute_aligned(MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF) and called it a day, I did a little bit of extra work to make the code more portable than that: it will also support int128 on compilers without __attribute__(aligned()), if the native alignment of their 128-bit-int type is no more than that of int64. Add a regression test case that exercises the one known instance of the problem, in parallel aggregation over a bigint column. Back-patch of commit 751804998. The code known to be affected only exists in 9.6 and later, but we do have some stuff using int128 in 9.5, so patch back to 9.5.

2017-11-14Rearrange c.h to create a "compiler characteristics" section.Tom Lane
Generalize section 1 to handle stuff that is principally about the compiler (not libraries), such as attributes, and collect stuff there that had been dropped into various other parts of c.h. Also, push all the gettext macros into section 8, so that section 0 is really just inclusions rather than inclusions and random other stuff. The primary goal here is to get pg_attribute_aligned() defined before section 3, so that we can use it with int128. But this seems like good cleanup anyway. This patch just moves macro definitions around, and shouldn't result in any changes in generated code. Back-patch of commit 91aec93e6.

2017-11-08Fix two violations of the ResourceOwnerEnlarge/Remember protocol.Tom Lane
The point of having separate ResourceOwnerEnlargeFoo and ResourceOwnerRememberFoo functions is so that resource allocation can happen in between. Doing it in some other order is just wrong. OpenTemporaryFile() did open(), enlarge, remember, which would leak the open file if the enlarge step ran out of memory. Because fd.c has its own layer of resource-remembering, the consequences look like they'd be limited to an intratransaction FD leak, but it's still not good. IncrBufferRefCount() did enlarge, remember, incr-refcount, which would blow up if the incr-refcount step ever failed. It was safe enough when written, but since the introduction of PrivateRefCountHash, I think the assumption that no error could happen there is pretty shaky. The odds of real problems from either bug are probably small, but still, back-patch to supported branches. Thomas Munro and Tom Lane, per a comment from Andres Freund

If it didn't, that would usually result in a crash, though disclosure of server memory contents seems possible as well, for a skilled attacker capable of issuing crafted SQL commands. Instead, use the query-supplied descriptor only when there is no input tuple to look at, and otherwise get a tuple descriptor based on the input tuple's own type marking. The core code will detect any type mismatch in the latter case. Michael Paquier and Tom Lane, per a report from David Rowley. Back-patch to 9.3 where this functionality was introduced.

2017-11-02Fix corner-case errors in brin_doupdate().Tom Lane
In some cases the BRIN code releases lock on an index page, and later re-acquires lock and tries to check that the tuple it was working on is still there. That check was a couple bricks shy of a load. It didn't consider that the page might have turned into a "revmap" page. (The samepage code path doesn't call brin_getinsertbuffer(), so it isn't protected by the checks for revmap status there.) It also didn't check whether the tuple offset was now off the end of the linepointer array.

Vitaly Burovoy reported an oversight of this sort in pg_dump's dumpSequence, and grepping detected another one in psql's describeOneTableDetails, both introduced by sequence-related changes in v10. In pg_dump, we can fix things by removing the cast altogether, since it doesn't really matter what data types are reported for these query result columns. Likewise in psql, the query seemed to be working unduly hard to get a result that's guaranteed to be exactly 'bigint'. I also changed a couple of occurrences of "::char" similarly. These are not bugs, since "char" is a typename keyword and not subject to search_path rules, but it seems better to use uniform style.

Commit d5b760ecb wasn't quite right, on second thought: if the caller didn't ask for column names then it would happily emit more Vars than if the caller did ask for column names. This is surely not a good idea. Advance the aliasp_item whether or not we're preparing a colnames list.
2017-10-27Fix crash when columns have been added to the end of a view.Tom Lane
expandRTE() supposed that an RTE_SUBQUERY subquery must have exactly as many non-junk tlist items as the RTE has column aliases for it. This was true at the time the code was written, and is still true so far as parse analysis is concerned --- but when the function is used during planning, the subquery might have appeared through insertion of a view that now has more columns than it did when the outer query was parsed. This results in a core dump if, for instance, we have to expand a whole-row Var that references the subquery. To avoid crashing, we can either stop expanding the RTE when we run out of aliases, or invent new aliases for the added columns. While the latter might be more useful, the former is consistent with what expandRTE() does for composite-returning functions in the RTE_FUNCTION case, so it seems like we'd better do it that way. Per bug #14876 from Samuel Horwitz. This has been busted since commit ff1ea2173 allowed views to acquire more columns, so back-patch to all supported branches.
