Tom Lane 34c9e455d0 Improve performance of partition pruning remapping a little.
ExecFindInitialMatchingSubPlans has to update the PartitionPruneState's
subplan mapping data to account for the removal of subplans it prunes.
However, that's only necessary if run-time pruning will also occur,
so we can skip it when that won't happen, which should result in not
needing to do the remapping in many cases.  (We now need it only when
some partitions are potentially startup-time prunable and others are
potentially run-time prunable, which seems like an unusual case.)

Also make some marginal performance improvements in the remapping
itself.  These will mainly win if most partitions got pruned by
the startup-time pruning, which is perhaps a debatable assumption
in this context.

Also fix some bogus comments, and rearrange code to marginally
reduce space consumption in the executor's query-lifespan context.

Tom Lane 600b04d6b5 Add a timezone-specific variant of date_trunc().
date_trunc(field, timestamptz, zone_name) performs truncation using
the named time zone as reference, rather than working in the session
time zone as is the default behavior.  It's equivalent to

date_trunc(field, timestamptz at time zone zone_name) at time zone zone_name

but it's faster, easier to type, and arguably easier to understand.

Tom Lane fa2952d8eb Fix missing role dependencies for some schema and type ACLs.
This patch fixes several related cases in which pg_shdepend entries were
never made, or were lost, for references to roles appearing in the ACLs of
schemas and/or types.  While that did no immediate harm, if a referenced
role were later dropped, the drop would be allowed and would leave a
dangling reference in the object's ACL.  That still wasn't a big problem
for normal database usage, but it would cause obscure failures in
subsequent dump/reload or pg_upgrade attempts, taking the form of
attempts to grant privileges to all-numeric role names.  (I think I've
seen field reports matching that symptom, but can't find any right now.)

Several cases are fixed here:

1. ALTER DOMAIN SET/DROP DEFAULT would lose the dependencies for any
existing ACL entries for the domain.  This case is ancient, dating
back as far as we've had pg_shdepend tracking at all.

2. If a default type privilege applies, CREATE TYPE recorded the
ACL properly but forgot to install dependency entries for it.
This dates to the addition of default privileges for types in 9.2.

3. If a default schema privilege applies, CREATE SCHEMA recorded the
ACL properly but forgot to install dependency entries for it.
This dates to the addition of default privileges for schemas in v10
(commit ab89e465c).

Another somewhat-related problem is that when creating a relation
rowtype or implicit array type, TypeCreate would apply any available
default type privileges to that type, which we don't really want
since such an object isn't supposed to have privileges of its own.
(You can't, for example, drop such privileges once they've been added
to an array type.)

ab89e465c is also to blame for a race condition in the regression tests:
privileges.sql transiently installed globally-applicable default
privileges on schemas, which sometimes got absorbed into the ACLs of
schemas created by concurrent test scripts.  This should have resulted
in failures when privileges.sql tried to drop the role holding such
privileges; but thanks to the bug fixed here, it instead led to dangling
ACLs in the final state of the regression database.  We'd managed not to
notice that, but it became obvious in the wake of commit da906766c, which
allowed the race condition to occur in pg_upgrade tests.

To fix, add a function recordDependencyOnNewAcl to encapsulate what
callers of get_user_default_acl need to do; while the original call
sites got that right via ad-hoc code, none of the later-added ones
have.  Also change GenerateTypeDependencies to generate these
dependencies, which requires adding the typacl to its parameter list.
(That might be annoying if there are any extensions calling that
function directly; but if there are, they're most likely buggy in the
same way as the core callers were, so they need work anyway.)  While
I was at it, I changed GenerateTypeDependencies to accept most of its
parameters in the form of a Form_pg_type pointer, making its parameter
list a bit less unwieldy and mistake-prone.

The test race condition is fixed just by wrapping the addition and
removal of default privileges into a single transaction, so that that
state is never visible externally.  We might eventually prefer to
separate out tests of default privileges into a script that runs by
itself, but that would be a bigger change and would make the tests
run slower overall.

Back-patch relevant parts to all supported branches.

Michael Paquier 319a810180 Fix dependency handling of partitions and inheritance for ON COMMIT
This commit fixes a set of issues with ON COMMIT actions when used on
partitioned tables and tables with inheritance children:
- Applying ON COMMIT DROP on a partitioned table with partitions or on a
table with inheritance children caused a failure at commit time, with
complains about the children being already dropped as all relations are
dropped one at the same time.
- Applying ON COMMIT DELETE on a partition relying on a partitioned
table which uses ON COMMIT DROP would cause the partition truncation to
fail as the parent is removed first.

The solution to the first problem is to handle the removal of all the
dependencies in one go instead of dropping relations one-by-one, based
on a suggestion from Álvaro Herrera.  So instead all the relation OIDs
to remove are gathered and then processed in one round of multiple
deletions.

The solution to the second problem is to reorder the actions, with
truncation happening first and relation drop done after.  Even if it
means that a partition could be first truncated, then immediately
dropped if its partitioned table is dropped, this has the merit to keep
the code simple as there is no need to do existence checks on the
relations to drop.

Contrary to a manual TRUNCATE on a partitioned table, ON COMMIT DELETE
does not cascade to its partitions.  The ON COMMIT action defined on
each partition gets the priority.

Alvaro Herrera 705d433fd5 Revise attribute handling code on partition creation
The original code to propagate NOT NULL and default expressions
specified when creating a partition was mostly copy-pasted from
typed-tables creation, but not being a great match it contained some
duplicity, inefficiency and bugs.

This commit fixes the bug that NOT NULL constraints declared in the
parent table would not be honored in the partition.  One reported issue
that is not fixed is that a DEFAULT declared in the child is not used
when inserting through the parent.  That would amount to a behavioral
change that's better not back-patched.

This rewrite makes the code simpler:

1. instead of checking for duplicate column names in its own block,
reuse the original one that already did that;

2. instead of concatenating the list of columns from parent and the one
declared in the partition and scanning the result to (incorrectly)
propagate defaults and not-null constraints, just scan the latter
searching the former for a match, and merging sensibly.  This works
because we know the list in the parent is already correct and there can
only be one parent.

This rewrite makes ColumnDef->is_from_parent unused, so it's removed
on branch master; on released branches, it's kept as an unused field in
order not to cause ABI incompatibilities.

This commit also adds a test case for creating partitions with
collations mismatching that on the parent table, something that is
closely related to the code being patched.  No code change is introduced
though, since that'd be a behavior change that could break some (broken)
working applications.

Amit Langote wrote a less invasive fix for the original
NOT NULL/defaults bug, but while I kept the tests he added, I ended up
not using his original code.  Ashutosh Bapat reviewed Amit's fix.  Amit

Tom Lane 5d28c9bd73 Disable recheck_on_update optimization to avoid crashes.
The code added by commit c203d6cf8 causes a crash in at least one case,
where a potentially-optimizable expression index has a storage type
different from the input data type.  A cursory code review turned up
numerous other problems that seem impractical to fix on short notice.

Andres argued for revert of that patch some time ago, and if additional
senior committers had been paying attention, that's likely what would
have happened, but we were not :-(

At this point we can't just revert, at least not in v11, because that would
mean an ABI break for code touching relcache entries.  And we should not
remove the (also buggy) support for the recheck_on_update index reloption,
since it might already be used in some databases in the field.  So this
patch just does the as-little-invasive-as-possible measure of disabling
the feature as though recheck_on_update were forced off for all indexes.
I also removed the related regression tests (which would otherwise fail)
and the user-facing documentation of the reloption.

We should undertake a more thorough code cleanup if the patch can't be
fixed, but not under the extreme time pressure of being already overdue
for 11.1 release.

pgsql-release.

Andrew Gierth 5613da4cc7 Optimize nested ConvertRowtypeExpr nodes.
A ConvertRowtypeExpr is used to translate a whole-row reference of a
child to that of a parent. The planner produces nested
ConvertRowtypeExpr while translating whole-row reference of a leaf
partition in a multi-level partition hierarchy. Executor then
translates the whole-row reference from the leaf partition into all
the intermediate parent's whole-row references before arriving at the
final whole-row reference. It could instead translate the whole-row
reference from the leaf partition directly to the top-most parent's
whole-row reference skipping any intermediate translations.

Tom Lane 003c68a3b4 Rename rbtree.c functions to use "rbt" prefix not "rb" prefix.
The "rb" prefix is used by Ruby, so that our existing code results
in name collisions that break plruby.  We discussed ways to prevent
that by adjusting dynamic linker options, but it seems that at best
we'd move the pain to other cases.  Renaming to avoid the collision
is the only portable fix anyway.  Fortunately, our rbtree code is
not (yet?) widely used --- in core, there's only a single usage
in GIN --- so it seems likely that we can get away with a rename.

I chose to do this basically as s/rb/rbt/g, except for places where
there already was a "t" after "rb".  The patch could have been made
smaller by only touching linker-visible symbols, but it would have
resulted in oddly inconsistent-looking code.  Better to make it look
like "rbt" was the plan all along.

Back-patch to v10.  The rbtree.c code exists back to 9.5, but
rb_iterate() which is the actual immediate source of pain was added
in v10, so it seems like changing the names before that would have
more risk than benefit.

Michael Paquier dc3e436b19 Block creation of partitions with open references to its parent
When a partition is created as part of a trigger processing, it is
possible that the partition which just gets created changes the
properties of the table the executor of the ongoing command relies on,
causing a subsequent crash.  This has been found possible when for
example using a BEFORE INSERT which creates a new partition for a
partitioned table being inserted to.

Any attempt to do so is blocked when working on a partition, with
regression tests added for both CREATE TABLE PARTITION OF and ALTER
TABLE ATTACH PARTITION.

Tom Lane 14a158f9bf Fix interaction of CASE and ArrayCoerceExpr.
An array-type coercion appearing within a CASE that has a constant
(after const-folding) test expression was mangled by the planner, causing
all the elements of the resulting array to be equal to the coerced value
of the CASE's test expression.  This is my oversight in commit c12d570fa:
that changed ArrayCoerceExpr to use a subexpression involving a
CaseTestExpr, and I didn't notice that eval_const_expressions needed an
adjustment to keep from folding such a CaseTestExpr to a constant when
it's inside a suitable CASE.

This is another in what's getting to be a depressingly long line of bugs
associated with misidentification of the referent of a CaseTestExpr.
We're overdue to redesign that mechanism; but any such fix is unlikely
to be back-patchable into v11.  As a stopgap, fix eval_const_expressions
to do what it must here.  Also add a bunch of comments pointing out the
restrictions and assumptions that are needed to make this work at all.

Also fix a related oversight: contain_context_dependent_node() was not
aware of the relationship of ArrayCoerceExpr to CaseTestExpr.  That was
somewhat fail-soft, in that the outcome of a wrong answer would be to
prevent optimizations that could have been made, but let's fix it while
we're at it.

Tom Lane 4247db6252 Client-side fixes for delayed NOTIFY receipt.
PQnotifies() is defined to just process already-read data, not try to read
any more from the socket.  (This is a debatable decision, perhaps, but I'm
hesitant to change longstanding library behavior.)  The documentation has
long recommended calling PQconsumeInput() before PQnotifies() to ensure
that any already-arrived message would get absorbed and processed.
However, psql did not get that memo, which explains why it's not very
reliable about reporting notifications promptly.

Also, most (not quite all) callers called PQconsumeInput() just once before
a PQnotifies() loop.  Taking this recommendation seriously implies that we
should do PQconsumeInput() before each call.  This is more important now
that we have "payload" strings in notification messages than it was before;
that increases the probability of having more than one packet's worth
of notify messages.  Hence, adjust code as well as documentation examples
to do it like that.

Back-patch to 9.5 to match related server fixes.  In principle we could
probably go back further with these changes, but given lack of field

expression from a subquery and put it into a full join's qual.  That can
result in not recognizing the qual as containing a mergejoin-able or
hashjoin-able condition.  A PHV prevents the problem because it is still
recognized as belonging to the side of the join the subquery is in.

I'm not very sure about the net effect of this change on plan quality.
In "typical" cases where the join keys are Vars, nothing changes.
In an affected case, the PHV-wrapped expression is less likely to be seen
as equal to PHV-less instances below the join, but more likely to be seen
as equal to similar expressions above the join, so it may end up being a
wash.  In the one existing case where there's any visible change in a
regression-test plan, it amounts to referencing a lower computation of a
COALESCE result instead of recomputing it, which seems like a win.

Given my uncertainty about that and the lack of field complaints,
no back-patch, even though this is a very ancient problem.

Tom Lane e9f42d529f Clean up/tighten up coercibility checks in opr_sanity regression test.
With the removal of the old abstime type, there are no longer any cases
in this test where we need to use the weaker castcontext-ignoring form
of binary coercibility check.  (The other major source of such headaches,
apparently-incompatible hash functions, is now hashvalidate()'s problem
not this test script's problem.)  Hence, just use binary_coercible()
everywhere, and remove the comments explaining why we don't do so ---
which were broken anyway by cda6a8d01.

I left physically_coercible() in place but renamed it to better
match what it's actually testing, and added some comments.

Also, in test queries that have an assumption about the maximum number
of function arguments they need to handle, add a clause to make them fail
if someday there's a relevant function with more arguments.  Otherwise
we're likely not to notice that we need to extend the queries.

Alvaro Herrera c7d43c4d8a Correct attach/detach logic for FKs in partitions
There was no code to handle foreign key constraints on partitioned
tables in the case of ALTER TABLE DETACH; and if you happened to ATTACH
a partition that already had an equivalent constraint, that one was
ignored and a new constraint was created.  Adding this to the fact that
foreign key cloning reuses the constraint name on the partition instead
of generating a new name (as it probably should, to cater to SQL
standard rules about constraint naming within schemas), the result was a
pretty poor user experience -- the most visible failure was that just
detaching a partition and re-attaching it failed with an error such as

  ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_constraint_conrelid_contypid_conname_index"
  DETAIL:  Key (conrelid, contypid, conname)=(26702, 0, test_result_asset_id_fkey) already exists.

because it would try to create an identically-named constraint in the
partition.  To make matters worse, if you tried to drop the constraint
in the now-independent partition, that would fail because the constraint
was still seen as dependent on the constraint in its former parent
partitioned table:
  ERROR:  cannot drop inherited constraint "test_result_asset_id_fkey" of relation "test_result_cbsystem_0001_0050_monthly_2018_09"

This fix attacks the problem from two angles: first, when the partition
is detached, the constraint is also marked as independent, so the drop
now works.  Second, when the partition is re-attached, we scan existing
constraints searching for one matching the FK in the parent, and if one
exists, we link that one to the parent constraint.  So we don't end up
with a duplicate -- and better yet, we don't need to scan the referenced
table to verify that the constraint holds.

To implement this I made a small change to previously planner-only
struct ForeignKeyCacheInfo to contain the constraint OID; also relcache
now maintains the list of FKs for partitioned tables too.

Backpatch to 11.

than this, anyway).  Hence we should be able to remove these and

Thomas Munro 212fab9926 Relax transactional restrictions on ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE (redux).
Originally committed as 15bc038f (plus some follow-ups), this was
reverted in 28e07270 due to a problem discovered in parallel
workers.  This new version corrects that problem by sending the
list of uncommitted enum values to parallel workers.

Here follows the original commit message describing the change:

To prevent possibly breaking indexes on enum columns, we must keep
uncommitted enum values from getting stored in tables, unless we
can be sure that any such column is new in the current transaction.

Formerly, we enforced this by disallowing ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE
from being executed at all in a transaction block, unless the target
enum type had been created in the current transaction.  This patch
removes that restriction, and instead insists that an uncommitted enum
value can't be referenced unless it belongs to an enum type created
in the same transaction as the value.  Per discussion, this should be
a bit less onerous.  It does require each function that could possibly
return a new enum value to SQL operations to check this restriction,
but there aren't so many of those that this seems unmaintainable.

Commit 2fbdf1b38b changed the order in which we inserted catalog rows
when creating partitions, so that we could remove an unsightly hack
required for untimely relcache invalidations.  However, that commit only
changed the ordering for CREATE TABLE PARTITION OF, and left ALTER TABLE
ATTACH PARTITION unchanged, so the latter can be affected when catalog
invalidations occur, for instance when the partition key involves an SQL
function.

Alvaro Herrera ad08006ba0 Fix event triggers for partitioned tables
Index DDL cascading on partitioned tables introduced a way for ALTER
TABLE to be called reentrantly.  This caused an an important deficiency
in event trigger support to be exposed: on exiting the reentrant call,
the alter table state object was clobbered, causing a crash when the
outer alter table tries to finalize its processing.  Fix the crash by
creating a stack of event trigger state objects.  There are still ways
to cause things to misbehave (and probably other crashers) with more
elaborate tricks, but at least it now doesn't crash in the obvious
scenario.

Backpatch to 9.5, where DDL deparsing of event triggers was introduced.

Dean Rasheed e954a727f0 Improve the accuracy of floating point statistical aggregates.
When computing statistical aggregates like variance, the common
schoolbook algorithm which computes the sum of the squares of the
values and subtracts the square of the mean can lead to a large loss
of precision when using floating point arithmetic, because the
difference between the two terms is often very small relative to the
terms themselves.

To avoid this, re-work these aggregates to use the Youngs-Cramer
algorithm, which is a proven, numerically stable algorithm that
directly aggregates the sum of the squares of the differences of the
values from the mean in a single pass over the data.

While at it, improve the test coverage to test the aggregate combine
functions used during parallel aggregation.

Per report and suggested algorithm from Erich Schubert.

Patch by me, reviewed by Madeleine Thompson.

When specified, this option allows VACUUM to skip the work on a relation
if there is a conflicting lock on it when trying to open it at the
beginning of its processing.

Similarly to autovacuum, this comes with a couple of limitations while
the relation is processed which can cause the process to still block:
- when opening the relation indexes.
- when acquiring row samples for table inheritance trees, partition trees
or certain types of foreign tables, and that a lock is taken on some
leaves of such trees.

Tom Lane 3d0f68dd30 Fix corner-case failures in has_foo_privilege() family of functions.
The variants of these functions that take numeric inputs (OIDs or
column numbers) are supposed to return NULL rather than failing
on bad input; this rule reduces problems with snapshot skew when
queries apply the functions to all rows of a catalog.

has_column_privilege() had careless handling of the case where the
table OID didn't exist.  You might get something like this:
	select has_column_privilege(9999,'nosuchcol','select');
	ERROR:  column "nosuchcol" of relation "(null)" does not exist
or you might get a crash, depending on the platform's printf's response
to a null string pointer.

In addition, while applying the column-number variant to a dropped
column returned NULL as desired, applying the column-name variant
did not:
	select has_column_privilege('mytable','........pg.dropped.2........','select');
	ERROR:  column "........pg.dropped.2........" of relation "mytable" does not exist
It seems better to make this case return NULL as well.

Also, the OID-accepting variants of has_foreign_data_wrapper_privilege,
has_server_privilege, and has_tablespace_privilege didn't follow the
principle of returning NULL for nonexistent OIDs.  Superusers got TRUE,
everybody else got an error.

Per investigation of Jaime Casanova's report of a new crash in HEAD.
These behaviors have been like this for a long time, so back-patch to
all supported branches.

This patch creates the field and makes all creators of RTE nodes fill it

is to replace assorted post-parser logic that re-determines the right
lockmode to use with simple uses of rte->rellockmode.  For now, just add
Asserts in each of those places that the rellockmode matches what they are
computing today.  (In some cases the match isn't perfect, so the Asserts
are weaker than you might expect; but this seems OK, as per discussion.)

This passes check-world for me, but it seems worth pushing in this state
to see if the buildfarm finds any problems in cases I failed to test.
