David Rowley 6de3a21bbc Fix incorrect return value in pg_size_pretty(bigint)
Due to how pg_size_pretty(bigint) was implemented, it's possible that when
given a negative number of bytes that the returning value would not match
the equivalent positive return value when given the equivalent positive
number of bytes.  This was due to two separate issues.

1. The function used bit shifting to convert the number of bytes into
larger units.  The rounding performed by bit shifting is not the same as
dividing.  For example -3 >> 1 = -2, but -3 / 2 = -1.  These two
operations are only equivalent with positive numbers.

2. The half_rounded() macro rounded towards positive infinity.  This meant
that negative numbers rounded towards zero and positive numbers rounded
away from zero.

Here we fix #1 by dividing the values instead of bit shifting.  We fix #2
by adjusting the half_rounded macro always to round away from zero.

Additionally, adjust the pg_size_pretty(numeric) function to be more
explicit that it's using division rather than bit shifting.  A casual
observer might have believed bit shifting was used due to a static
function being named numeric_shift_right.  However, that function was
calculating the divisor from the number of bits and performed division.
Here we make that more clear.  This change is just cosmetic and does not
affect the return value of the numeric version of the function.

Here we also add a set of regression tests both versions of
pg_size_pretty() which test the values directly before and after the
function switches to the next unit.

This bug was introduced in 8a1fab36a. Prior to that negative values were
always displayed in bytes.

Tom Lane 30a35bca3f Fix crash in postgres_fdw for provably-empty remote UPDATE/DELETE.
In 86dc90056, I'd written find_modifytable_subplan with the assumption
that if the immediate child of a ModifyTable is a Result, it must be
a projecting Result with a subplan.  However, if the UPDATE or DELETE
has a provably-constant-false WHERE clause, that's not so: we'll
generate a dummy subplan with a childless Result.  Add the missing
null-check so we don't crash on such cases.

Per report from Alexander Pyhalov.

Fujii Masao 4173477b38 postgres_fdw: Tighten up allowed values for batch_size, fetch_size options.
Previously the values such as '100$%$#$#', '9,223,372,' were accepted and
treated as valid integers for postgres_fdw options batch_size and fetch_size.
Whereas this is not the case with fdw_startup_cost and fdw_tuple_cost options
for which an error is thrown. This was because endptr was not used
while converting strings to integers using strtol.

This commit changes the logic so that it uses parse_int function
instead of strtol as it serves the purpose by returning false in case
if it is unable to convert the string to integer. Note that
this function also rounds off the values such as '100.456' to 100 and
'100.567' or '100.678' to 101.

While on this, use parse_real for fdw_startup_cost and fdw_tuple_cost options.

Since parse_int and parse_real are being used for reloptions and GUCs,
it is more appropriate to use in postgres_fdw rather than using strtol
and strtod directly.

Back-patch to v14.

Tom Lane 86d4914210 Avoid doing catalog lookups in postgres_fdw's conversion_error_callback.
As in 50371df26, this is a bad idea since the callback can't really
know what error is being thrown and thus whether or not it is safe
to attempt catalog accesses.  Rather than pushing said accesses into
the mainline code where they'd usually be a waste of cycles, we can
look at the query's rangetable instead.

This change does mean that we'll be printing query aliases (if any
were used) rather than the table or column's true name.  But that
doesn't seem like a bad thing: it's certainly a more useful definition
in self-join cases, for instance.  In any case, it seems unlikely that
any applications would be depending on this detail, so it seems safe
to change.

Patch by me.  Original complaint by Andres Freund; Bharath Rupireddy
noted the connection to conversion_error_callback.

Tom Lane 07f1e06964 Reduce overhead of cache-clobber testing in LookupOpclassInfo().
Commit 03ffc4d6d added logic to bypass all caching behavior in
LookupOpclassInfo when CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS is enabled.  It doesn't
look like I stopped to think much about what that would cost, but
recent investigation shows that the cost is enormous: it roughly
doubles the time needed for cache-clobber test runs.

There does seem to be value in this behavior when trying to test
the opclass-cache loading logic itself, but for other purposes the
cost is excessive.  Hence, let's back off to doing this only when
debug_invalidate_system_caches_always is at least 3; or in older
branches, when CLOBBER_CACHE_RECURSIVELY is defined.

While here, clean up some other minor issues in LookupOpclassInfo.
Re-order the code so we aren't left with broken cache entries (leading
to later core dumps) in the unlikely case that we suffer OOM while
trying to allocate space for a new entry.  (That seems to be my
oversight in 03ffc4d6d.)  Also, in >= v13, stop allocating one array
entry too many.  That's evidently left over from sloppy reversion in
851b14b0c.

Back-patch to all supported branches, mainly to reduce the runtime
of cache-clobbering buildfarm animals.

Tom Lane 9fa6fe466c Rethink blocking annotations in detach-partition-concurrently-[34].
In 741d7f104, I tried to make the reports from canceled steps come out
after the pg_cancel_backend() steps, since that was the most common
ordering before.  However, that doesn't ensure that a canceled step
doesn't report even later, as shown in a recent failure on buildfarm
member idiacanthus.  Rather than complicating things even more with
additional annotations, let's just force the cancel's effect to be
reported first.  It's not *that* unnatural-looking.

Tom Lane 63a9521670 Don't try to print data type names in slot_store_error_callback().
The existing code tried to do syscache lookups in an already-failed
transaction, which is problematic to say the least.  After some
consideration of alternatives, the best fix seems to be to just drop
type names from the error message altogether.  The table and column
names seem like sufficient localization.  If the user is unsure what
types are involved, she can check the local and remote table
definitions.

Having done that, we can also discard the LogicalRepTypMap hash
table, which had no other use.  Arguably, LOGICAL_REP_MSG_TYPE
replication messages are now obsolete as well; but we should
probably keep them in case some other use emerges.  (The complexity
of removing something from the replication protocol would likely
outweigh any savings anyhow.)

Freund.  Back-patch to v10 where this code originated.

Tom Lane d047708017 Add --clobber-cache option to initdb, for CCA testing.
Commit 4656e3d66 replaced the "#define CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS"
testing mechanism with a GUC, which has been a great help for
doing cache-clobber testing in more efficient ways; but there
is a gap in the implementation.  The only way to do cache-clobber
testing during an initdb run is to use the old method with #define,
because one can't set the GUC from outside.  Improve this by
adding a switch to initdb for the purpose.

from attempting that right now, though.)

Causing a core dump on out-of-memory seems pretty unfriendly,
and surely is far outside the expected behavior of a general-purpose

These functions unfortunately don't have an error return convention,
but code using them is probably just looking for a quick-n-dirty
print method and wouldn't bother to check anyway.

Although these functions are semi-deprecated, it still seems
appropriate to back-patch this.  In passing, also back-patch

Tom Lane 203c5aaaba Don't depend on -fwrapv semantics in pgbench's random() function.
Instead use the common/int.h functions to check for integer overflow
in a more C-standard-compliant fashion.  This is motivated by recent
failures on buildfarm member moonjelly, where it appears that
development-tip gcc is optimizing without regard to the -fwrapv
switch.  Presumably that's a gcc bug that will be fixed soon, but
we might as well install cleaner coding here rather than wait.

(This does not address the question of whether we'll ever be able
to get rid of using -fwrapv.  Testing shows that this spot is the
only place where doing so creates visible regression test failures,
but unfortunately that proves very little.)

Back-patch to v12.  The common/int.h functions exist in v11, but
that branch doesn't use them in any client-side code.  I judge
that this case isn't interesting enough in the real world to take
even a small risk of issues from being the first such use.

Michael Paquier 79718c1c6c Fix variable initialization with ALTER SUBSCRIPTION DROP PUBLICATION
copy_data is not a supported option with this sub-command of ALTER
SUBSCRIPTION, which would not make a variable related to it initialized
after parsing the option set in DefElems.  A refresh could then refer to
it.

Michael Paquier 09a69f6e23 Add test for CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY with not-so-immutable predicate
83158f7 has improved index_set_state_flags() so as it is possible to use
transactional updates when updating pg_index state flags, but there was
not really a test case which stressed directly the possibility it fixed.
This commit adds such a test, using a predicate that looks valid in
appearance but calls a stable function.

Tom Lane 642c0697c9 Remove memory leaks in isolationtester.
specscanner.l leaked a kilobyte of memory per token of the spec file.
Apparently somebody thought that the introductory code block would be
executed once; but it's once per yylex() call.

A couple of functions in isolationtester.c leaked small amounts of
memory due to not bothering to free one-time allocations.  Might
as well improve these so that valgrind gives this program a clean
bill of health.  Also get rid of an ugly static variable.

Coverity complained about one of the one-time leaks, which led me
to try valgrind'ing isolationtester, which led to discovery of the
larger leak.

Peter Eisentraut c302a61390 Error message refactoring
Take some untranslatable things out of the message and replace by
format placeholders, to reduce translatable strings and reduce
translation mistakes.

Tom Lane dcffc9ba8a Doc: update v14 release notes for revert of commit c0cb87fbb. 2021-06-26 15:45:16 -04:00
Tom Lane 8ec00dc5cd Remove undesirable libpq dependency on stringinfo.c.
Commit c0cb87fbb unwisely introduced a dependency on the StringInfo
machinery in fe-connect.c.  We must not use that in libpq, because
it will do a summary exit(1) if it hits OOM, and that is not
appropriate behavior for a general-purpose library.  The goal of
allowing arbitrary line lengths in service files doesn't seem like
it's worth a lot of effort, so revert back to the previous method
of using a stack-allocated buffer and failing on buffer overflow.

This isn't an exact revert though.  I kept that patch's refactoring
to have a single exit path, as that seems cleaner than having each
error path know what to do to clean up.  Also, I made the fixed-size
buffer 1024 bytes not 256, just to push off the need for an expandable
buffer some more.

There is more to do here; in particular the lack of any mechanical
check for this type of mistake now seems pretty hazardous.  But this
fix gets us back to the level of robustness we had in v13, anyway.

Michael Paquier d5a2c413fc Remove non-existing variable reference in MSVC's Solution.pm
The version string is grabbed from PACKAGE_VERSION in pg_config.h in the
MSVC build since 8f4fb4c6, but an error message referenced a variable
that existed before that.  This had no consequences except if one messes
up enough with the version number of the build.

Michael Paquier 704e1dbd9a Remove some useless logs from the TAP tests of pgbench
002_pgbench_no_server was printing some array pointers instead of the
actual contents of those arrays for the expected outputs of stdout and
stderr for a tested command.  This does not add any new information that
can help with debugging as the test names allow to track failure
locations, if any.

This commit simply removes those logs as the rest of the printed
information is redundant with command_checks_all().

Per discussion with Andrew Dunstan and Álvaro Herrera.
