Alvaro Herrera 71a8a4f6e3 Add backtrace support for error reporting
Add some support for automatically showing backtraces in certain error
situations in the server.  Backtraces are shown on assertion failure;
also, a new setting backtrace_functions can be set to a list of C
function names, and all ereport()s and elog()s from the mentioned
functions will have backtraces generated.  Finally, the function
errbacktrace() can be manually added to an ereport() call to generate a
backtrace for that call.

Peter Geoghegan e86c8ef243 Use "low key" terminology in nbtsort.c.
nbtree index builds once stashed the "minimum key" for a page, which was
used as the basis of the pivot tuple that gets placed in the next level
up (i.e. the tuple that stores the downlink to the page in question).
It doesn't quite work that way anymore, so the "minimum key" terminology
now seems misleading (these days the minimum key is actually a straight
copy of the high key from the left sibling, which is a distinct thing in
subtle but important ways).  Rename this concept to "low key".  This
name is a lot clearer given that there is now a sharp distinction
between pivot and non-pivot tuples.  Also remove comments that describe
obsolete details about how the minimum key concept used to work.

Rather than generating the minus infinity item for the leftmost page on
a level by copying the new item and truncating that copy, simply
allocate a small buffer.  The old approach confusingly created the
impression that the new item had some kind of significance.  This was
another artifact of how things used to work before commits 8224de4f and
dd299df8.

Alvaro Herrera b4bcc6bfdf Fix SET CONSTRAINTS .. DEFERRED on partitioned tables
SET CONSTRAINTS ... DEFERRED failed on partitioned tables, because of a
sanity check that ensures that the affected constraints have triggers.
On partitioned tables, the triggers are in the leaf partitions, not in
the partitioned relations themselves, so the sanity check fails.
Removing the sanity check solves the problem, because the code needed to
support the case is already there.

Backpatch to 11.

Note: deferred unique constraints are not affected by this bug, because
they do have triggers in the parent partitioned table.  I did not add a
test for this scenario.

Tom Lane a7145f6bc8 Fix integer-overflow edge case detection in interval_mul and pgbench.
This patch adopts the overflow check logic introduced by commit cbdb8b4c0
into two more places.  interval_mul() failed to notice if it computed a
new microseconds value that was one more than INT64_MAX, and pgbench's
double-to-int64 logic had the same sorts of edge-case problems that
cbdb8b4c0 fixed in the core code.

To make this easier to get right in future, put the guts of the checks
into new macros in c.h, and add commentary about how to use the macros
correctly.

Tomas Vondra 6e3e6cc0e8 Allow sampling of statements depending on duration
This allows logging a sample of statements, without incurring excessive
log traffic (which may impact performance).  This can be useful when
analyzing workloads with lots of short queries.

The sampling is configured using two new GUC parameters:

 * log_min_duration_sample - minimum required statement duration

 * log_statement_sample_rate - sample rate (0.0 - 1.0)

Only statements with duration exceeding log_min_duration_sample are
considered for sampling. To enable sampling, both those GUCs have to
be set correctly.

The existing log_min_duration_statement GUC has a higher priority, i.e.
statements with duration exceeding log_min_duration_statement will be
always logged, irrespectedly of how the sampling is configured. This
means only configurations

  log_min_duration_sample < log_min_duration_statement

do actually sample the statements, instead of logging everything.

Tom Lane 22e44e8dbc Minor code review for tuple slot rewrite.
Avoid creating transiently-inconsistent slot states where possible,
by not setting TTS_FLAG_SHOULDFREE until after the slot actually has
a free'able tuple pointer, and by making sure that we reset tts_nvalid
and related derived state before we replace the tuple contents.  This
would only matter if something were to examine the slot after we'd
suffered some kind of error (e.g. out of memory) while manipulating
the slot.  We typically don't do that, so these changes might just be
cosmetic --- but even if so, it seems like good future-proofing.

Also remove some redundant Asserts, and add a couple for consistency.

Tom Lane ff43b3e88e Sync our DTrace infrastructure with c.h's definition of type bool.
Since commit d26a810eb, we've defined bool as being either _Bool from
<stdbool.h>, or "unsigned char"; but that commit overlooked the fact
that probes.d has "#define bool char".  For consistency, make it say
"unsigned char" instead.  This should be strictly a cosmetic change,
but it seems best to be in sync.

Formally, in the now-normal case where we're using <stdbool.h>, it'd
be better to write "#define bool _Bool".  However, then we'd need
some build infrastructure to inject that configuration choice into
probes.d, and it doesn't seem worth the trouble.  We only use
<stdbool.h> if sizeof(_Bool) is 1, so having DTrace think that
bool parameters are "unsigned char" should be close enough.

Michael Paquier 5f6b1eb0cf Fix timestamp of sent message for write context in logical decoding
When sending data for logical decoding using the streaming replication
protocol via a WAL sender, the timestamp of the sent write message is
allocated at the beginning of the message when preparing for the write,
and actually computed when the write message is ready to be sent.

The timestamp was getting computed after sending the message.  This
impacts anything using logical decoding, causing for example logical
replication to report mostly NULL for last_msg_send_time in
pg_stat_subscription.

Andrew Gierth a9056cc637 Request small targetlist for input to WindowAgg.
WindowAgg will potentially store large numbers of input rows into
tuplestores to allow access to other rows in the frame. If the input
is coming via an explicit Sort node, then unneeded columns will
already have been discarded (since Sort requests a small tlist); but
there are idioms like COUNT(*) OVER () that result in the input not
being sorted at all, and cases where the input is being sorted by some
means other than a Sort; if we don't request a small tlist, then
WindowAgg's storage requirement is inflated by the unneeded columns.

Backpatch back to 9.6, where the current tlist handling was added.
(Prior to that, WindowAgg would always use a small tlist.)

Andres Freund 26aaf97b68 Make StringInfo available to frontend code.
There's plenty places in frontend code that could benefit from a
string buffer implementation. Some because it yields simpler and
faster code, and some others because of the desire to share code
between backend and frontend.

While there is a string buffer implementation available to frontend
code, libpq's PQExpBuffer, it is clunkier than stringinfo, it
introduces a libpq dependency, doesn't allow for sharing between
frontend and backend code, and has a higher API/ABI stability
requirement due to being exposed via libpq.

Therefore it seems best to just making StringInfo being usable by
frontend code. There's not much to do for that, except for rewriting
two subsequent elog/ereport calls into others types of error
reporting, and deciding on a maximum string length.

For the maximum string size I decided to privately define MaxAllocSize
to the same value as used in the backend. It seems likely that we'll
want to reconsider this for both backend and frontend code in the not
too far away future.

For now I've left stringinfo.h in lib/, rather than common/, to reduce
the likelihood of unnecessary breakage. We could alternatively decide
to provide a redirecting stringinfo.h in lib/, or just not provide
compatibility.

Andres Freund 01368e5d9d Split all OBJS style lines in makefiles into one-line-per-entry style.
When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources
for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when
the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is
somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those
conflicts are unnecessarily laborious to resolve.

By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one

Tom Lane 3affe76ef8 Avoid logging complaints about abandoned connections when using PAM.
For a long time (since commit aed378e8d) we have had a policy to log
nothing about a connection if the client disconnects when challenged
for a password.  This is because libpq-using clients will typically
do that, and then come back for a new connection attempt once they've
collected a password from their user, so that logging the abandoned
connection attempt will just result in log spam.  However, this did
not work well for PAM authentication: the bottom-level function
pam_passwd_conv_proc() was on board with it, but we logged messages
at higher levels anyway, for lack of any reporting mechanism.
Add a flag and tweak the logic so that the case is silent, as it is
for other password-using auth mechanisms.

Per complaint from Yoann La Cancellera.  It's been like this for awhile,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

perfectly legitimate permissions errors.  (At present, these functions
are in fact *only* used to determine the ObjectType argument for
acl_error() calls.)  It seems best to have them fall back to returning
OBJECT_TABLE in every case where they can't determine an object type
for a pg_class entry, so do that.

In passing, make some edits to alter.c to make it more obvious that
those calls of get_object_type() are used only for error reporting.

Commit d25ea0127 got rid of what I thought were entirely unnecessary
derived child expressions in EquivalenceClasses for EC members that
mention multiple baserels.  But it turns out that some of the child
expressions that code created are necessary for partitionwise joins,
else we fail to find matching pathkeys for Sort nodes.  (This happens
only for certain shapes of the resulting plan; it may be that
partitionwise aggregation is also necessary to show the failure,
though I'm not sure of that.)

Reverting that commit entirely would be quite painful performance-wise
for large partition sets.  So instead, add code that explicitly
generates child expressions that match only partitionwise child join
rels we have actually generated.

earlier, though it's not clear if he recognized then that it could
result in a planner error, not merely failure to exploit partitionwise
join, in the code as-committed.)  Back-patch to v12 where commit

Tom Lane ec28808ba8 Fix ginEntryInsert's counting of GIN leaf tuples.
As the code stands, nEntries counts the number of ginEntryInsert()
calls, so that's what you end up with at the end of a GIN index build.
However, ginvacuumcleanup() recomputes nEntries as the number of
surviving leaf tuples, and that's generally consistent with the way that
gincostestimate() uses the value.  So let's clearly define nEntries
as the number of leaf tuples, and therefore adjust ginEntryInsert() to
increment it only when we make a new one, not when we add TIDs into an
existing tuple or posting tree.

In practice this inconsistency probably has little impact, so I don't
feel a need to back-patch.

Peter Eisentraut c5e1df951d Remove one use of IDENT_USERNAME_MAX
IDENT_USERNAME_MAX is the maximum length of the information returned
by an ident server, per RFC 1413.  Using it as the buffer size in peer
authentication is inappropriate.  It was done here because of the
historical relationship between peer and ident authentication.  To
reduce confusion between the two authenticaton methods and disentangle
their code, use a dynamically allocated buffer instead.

For historical reasons, the functions for peer authentication were

Michael Paquier d80be6f2f6 Fix handling of pg_class.relispartition at swap phase in REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
When cancelling REINDEX CONCURRENTLY after swapping the old and new
indexes (for example interruption at step 5), the old index remains
around and is marked as invalid.  The old index should also be manually
droppable to clean up the parent relation from any invalid indexes still
remaining.  For a partition index reindexed, pg_class.relispartition was
not getting updated, causing the index to not be droppable as DROP INDEX
would look for dependencies in a partition tree, which do not exist
anymore after the swap phase is done.

The fix here is simple: when swapping the old and new indexes, make sure
that pg_class.relispartition is correctly switched, similarly to what is
done for the index name.

Tom Lane 8b7a0f1d11 Allow extracting fields from a ROW() expression in more cases.
Teach get_expr_result_type() to manufacture a tuple descriptor directly
from a RowExpr node.  If the RowExpr has type RECORD, this is the only
way to get a tupdesc for its result, since even if the rowtype has been
blessed, we don't have its typmod available at this point.  (If the
RowExpr has some named composite type, we continue to let the existing
code handle it, since the RowExpr might well not have the correct column
names embedded in it.)

This fixes assorted corner cases illustrated by the added regression
tests.

Tom Lane bd1ef5799b Handle empty-string edge cases correctly in strpos().
Commit 9556aa01c rearranged the innards of text_position() in a way
that would make it not work for empty search strings.  Which is fine,
because all callers of that code special-case an empty pattern in
some way.  However, the primary use-case (text_position itself) got
special-cased incorrectly: historically it's returned 1 not 0 for
an empty search string.  Restore the historical behavior.

Per complaint from Austin Drenski (via Shay Rojansky).
Back-patch to v12 where it got broken.

Michael Paquier 68ac9cf249 Fix dependency handling at swap phase of REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
When swapping the dependencies of the old and new indexes, the code has
been correctly switching all links in pg_depend from the old to the new
index for both referencing and referenced entries.  However it forgot
the fact that the new index may itself have existing entries in
pg_depend, like references to the parent table attributes.  This
resulted in duplicated entries in pg_depend after running REINDEX
CONCURRENTLY.

Fix this problem by removing any existing entries in pg_depend on the
new index before switching the dependencies of the old index to the new
one.  More regression tests are added to check the consistency of
entries in pg_depend for indexes, including partition indexes.

9155580 has changed the value of the first fake LSN for unlogged
relations from 1 to FirstNormalUnloggedLSN (aka 1000), GiST requiring a
non-zero LSN on some pages to allow an interlocking logic to work, but
its value was still initialized to 1 at the beginning of recovery or
after running pg_resetwal.  This fixes the initialization for both code

Peter Eisentraut 2fc2a88e67 Remove obsolete information schema tables
Remove SQL_LANGUAGES, which was eliminated in SQL:2008, and
SQL_PACKAGES and SQL_SIZING_PROFILES, which were eliminated in
SQL:2011.  Since they were dropped by the SQL standard, the
information in them was no longer updated and therefore no longer
useful.

This also removes the feature-package association information in
sql_feature_packages.txt, but for the time begin we are keeping the
information which features are in the Core package (that is, mandatory
SQL features).  Maybe at some point someone wants to invent a way to
store that that does not involve using the "package" mechanism
anymore.

Tom Lane 22f6f2c1cc Improve management of statement timeouts.
Commit f8e5f156b added private state in postgres.c to track whether
a statement timeout is running.  This seems like bad design to me;
timeout.c's private state should be the single source of truth about
that.  We already fixed one bug associated with failure to keep those
states in sync (cf. be42015fc), and I've got little faith that we
won't find more in future.  So get rid of postgres.c's local variable
by exposing a way to ask timeout.c whether a timeout is running.
(Obviously, such an inquiry is subject to race conditions, but it
seems fine for the purpose at hand.)

To make get_timeout_active() as cheap as possible, add a flag in
the per-timeout struct showing whether that timeout is active.
This allows some small savings elsewhere in timeout.c, mainly
elimination of unnecessary searches of the active_timeouts array.

While at it, fix enable_statement_timeout to not call disable_timeout
when statement_timeout is 0 and the timeout is not running.  This
avoids a useless deschedule-and-reschedule-timeouts cycle, which
represents a significant savings (at least one kernel call) when
there is any other active timeout.  Right now, there usually isn't,
but there are proposals around to change that.

Tom Lane 2b2bacdca0 Reset statement_timeout between queries of a multi-query string.
Historically, we started the timer (if StatementTimeout > 0) at the
beginning of a simple-Query message and usually let it run until the
end, so that the timeout limit applied to the entire query string,
and intra-string changes of the statement_timeout GUC had no effect.
But, confusingly, a COMMIT within the string would reset the state
and allow a fresh timeout cycle to start with the current setting.

Commit f8e5f156b changed the behavior of statement_timeout for extended
query protocol, and as an apparently-unintended side effect, a change in
the statement_timeout GUC during a multi-statement simple-Query message
might have an effect immediately --- but only if it was going from
"disabled" to "enabled".

This is all pretty confusing, not to mention completely undocumented.
Let's change things so that the timeout is always reset between queries
of a multi-query string, whether they're transaction control commands
or not.  Thus the active timeout setting is applied to each query in
the string, separately.  This costs a few more cycles if statement_timeout
is active, but it provides much more intuitive behavior, especially if one
changes statement_timeout in one of the queries of the string.

Also, add something to the documentation to explain all this.

Per bug #16035 from Raj Mohite.  Although this is a bug fix, I'm hesitant
to back-patch it; conceivably somebody has worked out the old behavior
and is depending on it.  (But note that this change should make the
behavior less restrictive in most cases, since the timeout will now
be applied to shorter segments of code.)

Michael Paquier 8270a0d9a9 Handle interrupts within a transaction context in REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
Phases 2 (building the new index) and 3 (validating the new index)
checked for interrupts outside a transaction context, having as
consequence to not release session-level locks taken on the parent
relation and the old and new indexes processed.  This could for example
be triggered with statement_timeout and a bad timing, and would issue
confusing error messages when shutting down the session still holding
the locks (note that an assertion failure would be triggered first), on
top of more issues with concurrent sessions trying to take a lock that
would interfere with the SHARE UPDATE EXCLUSIVE locks hold here.

This moves all the interruption checks inside a transaction context.
Note that I have manually tested all interruptions to make sure that
invalid indexes can be cleaned up properly.  Partition indexes still
have issues on their own with some missing dependency handling, which
will be dealt with in a follow-up patch.

Michael Paquier 5d3500da72 Acquire properly session-level lock on new index in REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
In the first transaction run for REINDEX CONCURRENTLY, a thinko in the
existing logic caused two session locks to be taken on the old index,
causing the session lock on the newly-created index to be missed.  This
made possible concurrent DDL commands (like ALTER INDEX) on the new
index while REINDEX CONCURRENTLY was processing from the point where the
first internal transaction committed.

This issue has been discovered while digging into another bug.
