* Avoid crash after function syntax error in a replication worker.Tom Lane2022-11-031-5/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a syntax error occurred in a SQL-language or PL/pgSQL-language CREATE FUNCTION or DO command executed in a logical replication worker, we'd suffer a null pointer dereference or assertion failure. That seems like a rather contrived case, but nonetheless worth fixing. The cause is that function_parse_error_transpose assumes it must be executing within the context of a Portal, but logical/worker.c doesn't create a Portal since it's not running the standard executor. We can just back off the hard Assert check and make it fail gracefully if there's not an ActivePortal. (I have a feeling that the aggressive check here was my fault originally, probably because I wasn't sure if the case would always hold and wanted to find out. Well, now we know.) The hazard seems to exist in all branches that have logical replication, so back-patch to v10.

* Allow use of __sync_lock_test_and_set for spinlocks on any machine.Tom Lane2022-11-021-23/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we have no special-case code in s_lock.h for the current platform, but the compiler has __sync_lock_test_and_set, use that instead of failing. It's unlikely that anybody's __sync_lock_test_and_set would be so awful as to be worse than our semaphore-based fallback, but if it is, they can (continue to) use --disable-spinlocks. This allows removal of the RISC-V special case installed by commit c32fcac56, which generated exactly the same code but only on that platform. Usefully, the RISC-V buildfarm animals should now test at least the int variant of this patch. I've manually tested both variants on ARM by dint of removing the ARM-specific stanza. We don't want to drop that, because it already has some special knowledge and is likely to grow more over time. Likewise, this is not meant to preclude installing special cases for other arches if that proves worthwhile. Per discussion of a request to install the same code for loongarch64. Like the previous patch, we might as well back-patch to supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/761ac43d44b84d679ba803c2bd947cc0@HSMAILSVR04.hs.handsome.com.cn
* Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2022f.Tom Lane2022-11-011-507/+266
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DST law changes in Chile, Fiji, Iran, Jordan, Mexico, Palestine, and Syria. Historical corrections for Chile, Crimea, Iran, and Mexico. Also, the Europe/Kiev zone has been renamed to Europe/Kyiv (retaining the old name as a link). The following zones have been merged into nearby, more-populous zones whose clocks have agreed since 1970: Antarctica/Vostok, Asia/Brunei, Asia/Kuala_Lumpur, Atlantic/Reykjavik, Europe/Amsterdam, Europe/Copenhagen, Europe/Luxembourg, Europe/Monaco, Europe/Oslo, Europe/Stockholm, Indian/Christmas, Indian/Cocos, Indian/Kerguelen, Indian/Mahe, Indian/Reunion, Pacific/Chuuk, Pacific/Funafuti, Pacific/Majuro, Pacific/Pohnpei, Pacific/Wake and Pacific/Wallis. (This indirectly affects zones that were already links to one of these: Arctic/Longyearbyen, Atlantic/Jan_Mayen, Iceland, Pacific/Ponape, Pacific/Truk, and Pacific/Yap.) America/Nipigon, America/Rainy_River, America/Thunder_Bay, Europe/Uzhgorod, and Europe/Zaporozhye were also merged into nearby zones after discovering that their claimed post-1970 differences from those zones seem to have been errors. While the IANA crew have been working on merging zones that have no post-1970 differences for some time, this batch of changes affects some zones that are significantly more populous than those merged in the past, notably parts of Europe. The loss of pre-1970 timezone history for those zones may be troublesome for applications expecting consistency of timestamptz display. As an example, the stored value '1944-06-01 12:00 UTC' would previously display as '1944-06-01 13:00:00+01' if the Europe/Stockholm zone is selected, but now it will read out as '1944-06-01 14:00:00+02'. There exists a "packrat" option that will build the timezone data files with this old data preserved, but the problem is that it also resurrects a bunch of other, far less well-attested data; so much so that actually more zones' contents change from 2022a with that option than without it. I have chosen not to do that here, for that reason and because it appears that no major OS distributions are using the "packrat" option, so that doing so would cause Postgres' behavior to diverge significantly depending on whether it was built with --with-system-tzdata. However, for anyone for whom these changes pose significant problems, there is a solution: build a set of timezone files with the "packrat" option and use those with Postgres.
* pg_stat_statements: fetch stmt location/length before it disappears.Tom Lane2022-11-011-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When executing a utility statement, we must fetch everything we need out of the PlannedStmt data structure before calling standard_ProcessUtility. In certain cases (possibly only ROLLBACK in extended query protocol), that data structure will get freed during command execution. The situation is probably often harmless in production builds, but in debug builds we intentionally overwrite the freed memory with garbage, leading to picking up garbage values of statement location and length, typically causing an assertion failure later in pg_stat_statements. In non-debug builds, if something did go wrong it would likely lead to storing garbage for the query string. Report and fix by zhaoqigui (with cosmetic adjustments by me). It's an old problem, so back-patch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17663-a344fd0675f92128@postgresql.org Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1667307420050.56657@hundsun.com
* Fix ordering issue with WAL operations in GIN fast insert pathMichael Paquier2022-10-261-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Contrary to what is documented in src/backend/access/transam/README, ginHeapTupleFastInsert() had a few ordering issues with the way it does its WAL operations when inserting items in its fast path. First, when using a separate list, XLogBeginInsert() was being always called before START_CRIT_SECTION(), and in this case a second thing was wrong when merging lists, as an exclusive lock was taken on the tail page *before* calling XLogBeginInsert(). Finally, when inserting items into a tail page, the order of XLogBeginInsert() and START_CRIT_SECTION() was reversed. This commit addresses all these issues by moving the calls of XLogBeginInsert() after all the pages logged are locked and pinned, within a critical section. This has been applied first only on HEAD as of 56b6625, but as per discussion with Tom Lane and Álvaro Herrera, a backpatch is preferred to keep all the branches consistent and to respect the transam's README where we can.

We don't know whether the remote system is running the same OS as the local system, so it's not appropriate to assume that our local rule about absolute pathnames is the same as the rule on the remote system.

* Add CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS while restoring changes during decoding.Amit Kapila2022-10-211-0/+2

* Fix assertion failures while processing NEW_CID record in logical decoding.Amit Kapila2022-10-204-0/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the logical decoding restarts from NEW_CID, since there is no association between the top transaction and its subtransaction, both are created as top transactions and have the same LSN. This caused the assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder(). This patch skips the assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we start decoding the contents of the transaction, specifically start_decoding_at LSN in SnapBuild. This is okay because we don't guarantee to make the association between top transaction and subtransaction until we try to decode the actual contents of transaction. The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN should have been checked before the restart. The other assertion failure is due to the reason that we forgot to track that we have considered top-level transaction id in the list of catalog changing transactions that were committed when one of its subtransactions is marked as containing catalog change.

* Reject non-ON-SELECT rules that are named "_RETURN".Tom Lane2022-10-171-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | DefineQueryRewrite() has long required that ON SELECT rules be named "_RETURN". But we overlooked the converse case: we should forbid non-ON-SELECT rules that are named "_RETURN". In particular this prevents using CREATE OR REPLACE RULE to overwrite a view's _RETURN rule with some other kind of rule, thereby breaking the view. Per bug #17646 from Kui Liu.

* Rename parser token REF to REF_P to avoid a symbol conflict.Tom Lane2022-10-162-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the latest version of Apple's macOS SDK, <sys/socket.h> fails to compile if "REF" is #define'd as something. Apple may or may not agree that this is a bug, and even if they do accept the bug report I filed, they probably won't fix it very quickly. In the meantime, our back branches will all fail to compile gram.y. v15 and HEAD currently escape the problem thanks to the refactoring done in 98e93a1fc, but that's purely accidental. Moreover, since that patch removed a widely-visible inclusion of <netdb.h>, back-patching it seems too likely to break third-party code. Instead, change the token's code name to REF_P, following our usual convention for naming parser tokens that are likely to have symbol conflicts. The effects of that should be localized to the grammar and immediately surrounding files, so it seems like a safer answer. Per project policy that we want to keep recently-out-of-support branches buildable on modern systems, back-patch all the way to 9.2. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1803927.1665938411@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Harden pmsignal.c against clobbered shared memory.Tom Lane2022-10-111-12/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The postmaster is not supposed to do anything that depends fundamentally on shared memory contents, because that creates the risk that a backend crash that trashes shared memory will take the postmaster down with it, preventing automatic recovery. In commit 969d7cd43 I lost sight of this principle and coded AssignPostmasterChildSlot() in such a way that it could fail or even crash if the shared PMSignalState structure became corrupted. Remarkably, we've not seen field reports of such crashes; but I managed to induce one while testing the recent changes around palloc chunk headers. To fix, make a semi-duplicative state array inside the postmaster so that we need consult only local state while choosing a "child slot" for a new backend. Ensure that other postmaster-executed routines in pmsignal.c don't have critical dependencies on the shared state, either. Corruption of PMSignalState might now lead ReleasePostmasterChildSlot() to conclude that backend X failed, when actually backend Y was the one that trashed things. But that doesn't matter, because we'll force a cluster-wide reset regardless. Back-patch to all supported branches, since this is an old bug.

* Yet further fixes for multi-row VALUES lists for updatable views.Tom Lane2022-10-113-26/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DEFAULT markers appearing in an INSERT on an updatable view could be mis-processed if they were in a multi-row VALUES clause. This would lead to strange errors such as "cache lookup failed for type NNNN", or in older branches even to crashes. The cause is that commit 41531e42d tried to re-use rewriteValuesRTE() to remove any SetToDefault nodes (that hadn't previously been replaced by the view's own default values) appearing in "product" queries, that is DO ALSO queries. That's fundamentally wrong because the DO ALSO queries might not even be INSERTs; and even if they are, their targetlists don't necessarily match the view's column list, so that almost all the logic in rewriteValuesRTE() is inapplicable. What we want is a narrow focus on replacing any such nodes with NULL constants. (That is, in this context we are interpreting the defaults as being strictly those of the view itself; and we already replaced any that aren't NULL.) We could add still more !force_nulls tests to further lobotomize rewriteValuesRTE(); but it seems cleaner to split out this case to a new function, restoring rewriteValuesRTE() to the charter it had before. Per bug #17633 from jiye_sw. Patch by me, but thanks to Richard Guo and Japin Li for initial investigation. Back-patch to all supported branches, as the previous fix was.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | clang 15+ will issue a set-but-not-used warning when the only use of a variable is in autoincrements (e.g., "foo++;"). That's perfectly sensible, but it detects a few more cases that we'd not noticed before. Silence the warnings with our usual methods, such as PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, or in one case by actually removing a useless variable. One thing that we can't nicely get rid of is that with %pure-parser, Bison emits "yynerrs" as a local variable that falls foul of this warning. To silence those, I inserted "(void) yynerrs;" in the top-level productions of affected grammars. Per recently-established project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch to 9.5, which is as far as these patches go without issues.

* Future-proof the recursion inside ExecShutdownNode().Tom Lane2022-09-191-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The API contract for planstate_tree_walker() callbacks is that they take a PlanState pointer and a context pointer. Somebody figured they could save a couple lines of code by ignoring that, and passing ExecShutdownNode itself as the walker even though it has but one argument. Somewhat remarkably, we've gotten away with that so far. However, it seems clear that the upcoming C2x standard means to forbid such cases, and compilers that actively break such code likely won't be far behind. So spend the extra few lines of code to do it honestly with a separate walker function. In HEAD, we might as well go further and remove ExecShutdownNode's useless return value. I left that as-is in back branches though, to forestall complaints about ABI breakage. Back-patch, with the thought that this might become of practical importance before our stable branches are all out of service. It doesn't seem to be fixing any live bug on any currently known platform, however. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/208054.1663534665@sss.pgh.pa.us

* In back branches, fix conditions for pullup of FROM-less subqueries.Tom Lane2022-09-153-20/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In branches before commit 4be058fe9, we have to prevent flattening of subqueries with empty jointrees if the subqueries' output columns might need to be wrapped in PlaceHolderVars. That's because the empty jointree would result in empty phrels for the PlaceHolderVars, meaning we'd be unable to figure out where to evaluate them. However, we've failed to keep is_simple_subquery's check for this hazard in sync with what pull_up_simple_subquery actually does. The former is checking "lowest_outer_join != NULL", whereas the conditions pull_up_simple_subquery actually uses are if (lowest_nulling_outer_join != NULL) if (containing_appendrel != NULL) if (parse->groupingSets) So the outer-join test is overly conservative, while we missed out checking for appendrels and groupingSets. The appendrel omission is harmless, because in that case we also check is_safe_append_member which will also reject such subqueries. The groupingSets omission is a bug though, leading to assertion failures or planner errors such as "variable not found in subplan target lists". is_simple_subquery has access to none of the three variables used in the correct tests, but its callers do, so I chose to have them pass down a bool corresponding to the OR of these conditions. (The need for duplicative conditions would be a maintenance hazard in actively-developed code, but I'm not too concerned about it in branches that have only ~ 1 year to live.) Per bug #17614 from Wei Wei. Patch v10 and v11 only, since we have a better answer to this in v12 and later (indeed, the faulty check in is_simple_subquery is gone entirely).

But in the case where the outer plan contains an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error. The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan. Repair. Per report from Alexander Pyhalov. Richard Guo and Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Alexander Pyhalov and Tom Lane. Backpatch to all supported versions.

* Fix incorrect value for "strategy" with deflateParams() in walmethods.cMichael Paquier2022-09-141-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The zlib documentation mentions the values supported for the compression strategy, but this code has been using a hardcoded value of 0 rather than Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY. This commit adjusts the code to use Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY. Backpatch down to where this code has been added to ease the backport of any future patch touching this area.

* Expand palloc/pg_malloc API for more type safetyPeter Eisentraut2022-09-142-0/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds additional variants of palloc, pg_malloc, etc. that encapsulate common usage patterns and provide more type safety. Specifically, this adds palloc_object(), palloc_array(), and repalloc_array(), which take the type name of the object to be allocated as its first argument and cast the return as a pointer to that type. There are also palloc0_object() and palloc0_array() variants for initializing with zero, and pg_malloc_*() variants of all of the above. Inspired by the talloc library. This is backpatched from master so that future backpatchable code can make use of these APIs. This patch by itself does not contain any users of these APIs.

* Fix possible omission of variable storage markers in ECPG.Tom Lane2022-09-096-123/+151
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ECPG preprocessor converted code such as static varchar str1[10], str2[20], str3[30]; into static struct varchar_1 { int len; char arr[ 10 ]; } str1 ; struct varchar_2 { int len; char arr[ 20 ]; } str2 ; struct varchar_3 { int len; char arr[ 30 ]; } str3 ; thus losing the storage attribute for the later variables. Repeat the declaration for each such variable. (Note that this occurred only for variables declared "varchar" or "bytea", which may help explain how it escaped detection for so long.)

* Reject bogus output from uuid_create(3).Tom Lane2022-09-093-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID. FreeBSD still does so, but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4 (random) UUID instead. That's not acceptable for our purposes: if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1. Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'. Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation is usable. It might be, depending on which OS version you're using, but we're not going to get into that kind of detail. (Maybe someday we should ditch all these external libraries and just write our own UUID code, but today is not that day.) Nazir Bilal Yavuz, with cosmetic adjustments and docs by me.

* Further fixes for MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK fix.Tom Lane2022-09-068-83/+119
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some more things I didn't think about in commits 3f7323cbb et al: MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK subplans might have been converted to initplans instead of regular subplans, in which case they won't show up in the modified targetlist. Fortunately, this would only happen if they have no input parameters, which means that the problem we originally needed to fix can't happen with them. Therefore, there's no need to clone their output parameters, and thus it doesn't hurt that we'll fail to see them in the first pass over the targetlist. Nonetheless, this complicates matters greatly, because now we have to distinguish output Params of initplans (which shouldn't get renumbered) from those of regular subplans (which should). This also breaks the simplistic scheme I used of assuming that the subplans found in the targetlist have consecutive subLinkIds. We really can't avoid the need to know the subplans' subLinkIds in this code. To fix that, add subLinkId as the last field of SubPlan. We can get away with that change in back branches because SubPlan nodes will never be stored in the catalogs, and there's no ABI break for external code that might be looking at the existing fields of SubPlan. Secondly, rewriteTargetListIU might have rolled up multiple FieldStores or SubscriptingRefs into one targetlist entry, breaking the assumption that there's at most one Param to fix per targetlist entry. (That assumption is OK I think in the ruleutils.c code I stole the logic from in 18f51083c, because that only deals with pre-rewrite query trees. But it's definitely not OK here.) Abandon that shortcut and just do a full tree walk on the targetlist to ensure we find all the Params we have to change. Per bug #17606 from Andre Lin. As before, only v10-v13 need the patch.

* Backpatch nbtree page deletion hardening.Peter Geoghegan2022-09-051-2/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Postgres 14 commit 5b861baa taught nbtree VACUUM to tolerate buggy opclasses. VACUUM's inability to locate a to-be-deleted page's downlink in the parent page was logged instead of throwing an error. VACUUM could just press on with vacuuming the index, and vacuuming the table as a whole. There are now anecdotal reports of this error causing problems that were much more disruptive than the underlying index corruption ever could be. Anything that makes VACUUM unable to make forward progress against one table/index ultimately risks making the system enter xidStopLimit mode. There is no good reason to take any chances here, so backpatch the hardening commit.

* Fix oversight in recent MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK fix.Tom Lane2022-09-023-20/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commits 3f7323cbb et al missed the possibility that the Params they are looking for could be buried under implicit coercions, as well as other stuff that processIndirection() could add to the original targetlist entry. Copy the code in ruleutils.c that deals with such cases. (I thought about refactoring so that there's just one copy; but seeing that we only need this in old back branches, it seems not worth the trouble.) Per off-list report from Andre Lin.

* Fix some possibly latent bugs in slab.cDavid Rowley2022-09-011-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Primarily, this fixes an incorrect calculation in SlabCheck which was looking in the wrong byte for the sentinel check. The reason that we've never noticed this before in the form of a failing sentinel check is because the pre-check to this always fails because all current core users of slab contexts have a chunk size which is already MAXALIGNed, therefore there's never any space for the sentinel byte. It is possible that an extension needs to use a slab context and if they do with a chunk size that's not MAXALIGNed, then they'll likely get errors about overwritten sentinel bytes. Additionally, this patch changes various calculations which are being done based on the sizeof(SlabBlock). Currently, sizeof(SlabBlock) is a multiple of 8, therefore sizeof(SlabBlock) is the same as MAXALIGN(sizeof(SlabBlock)), however, if we were to ever have to add any fields to that struct as part of a bug fix, then SlabAlloc could end up returning a non-MAXALIGNed pointer. To be safe, let's ensure we always MAXALIGN sizeof(SlabBlock) before using it in any calculations. This patch has already been applied to master in d5ee4db0e.

* Port regress-python3-mangle.mk to Solaris "sed", redux.Tom Lane2022-08-311-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per experimentation and buildfarm failures, Solaris' "sed" has got some kind of problem with regexes that use both '*' and '[[:alpha:]]'. We can work around that by replacing '[[:alpha:]]' with '[a-zA-Z]', which is plenty good enough for our purposes, especially since this is only needed in long-stable branches. I chose to flat-out remove the second pattern of this sort, 's/except \([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z.]*\), *\([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z]*\):/except \1 as \2:/g' because we haven't needed it since 8.4. Follow-on to c3556f6fa, which probably missed catching this because the problematic pattern was already gone when that patch was written. Patch v10-v12 only, as the problem manifests only there. We have a line of dead code in v13-v14, which isn't worth changing, and the whole mess is gone as of v15. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/165561.1661984701@sss.pgh.pa.us
