We'll have to settle for just listing the extensions' data types,
since function arguments seem to sort differently in different locales.
Per buildfarm results.
When we implemented extensions, we made findDependentObjects() treat
EXTENSION dependency links similarly to INTERNAL links. However, that
logic contained an implicit assumption that an object could have at most
one INTERNAL dependency, so it did not work correctly for objects having
both INTERNAL and DEPENDENCY links. This led to failure to drop some
extension member objects when dropping the extension. Furthermore, we'd
never actually exercised the case of recursing to an internally-referenced
(owning) object from anything other than a NORMAL dependency, and it turns
out that passing the incoming dependency's flags to the owning object is
the Wrong Thing. This led to sometimes dropping a whole extension silently
when we should have rejected the drop command for lack of CASCADE.
Since we obviously were under-testing extension drop scenarios, add some
regression test cases. Unfortunately, such test cases require some
extensions (duh), so we can't test for problems in the core regression
tests. I chose to add them to the earthdistance contrib module, which is
a good test case because it has a dependency on the cube contrib module.
Back-patch to 9.1. Arguably these are pre-existing bugs in INTERNAL
dependency handling, but since it appears that the cases can never arise
pre-9.1, I'll refrain from back-patching the logic changes further than
that.
When creating a new schema for a non-relocatable extension, we neglected
to check whether the calling user has permission to create schemas.
That didn't matter in the original coding, since we had already checked
superuserness, but in the new dispensation where users need not be
superusers, we should check it. Use CreateSchemaCommand() rather than
calling NamespaceCreate() directly, so that we also enforce the rules
about reserved schema names.
Per complaint from KaiGai Kohei, though this isn't the same as his patch.
set_append_rel_pathlist supposed that, while computing per-column width
estimates for the appendrel, it could ignore child rels for which the
translated reltargetlist entry wasn't a Var. This gave rise to completely
silly estimates in some common cases, such as constant outputs from some or
all of the arms of a UNION ALL. Instead, fall back on get_typavgwidth to
estimate from the value's datatype; which might be a poor estimate but at
least it's not completely wacko.
That problem was exposed by an Assert in set_subquery_size_estimates, which
unfortunately was still overoptimistic even with that fix, since we don't
compute attr_widths estimates for appendrels that are entirely excluded by
constraints. So remove the Assert; we'll just fall back on get_typavgwidth
in such cases.
Also, since set_subquery_size_estimates calls set_baserel_size_estimates
which calls set_rel_width, there's no need for set_subquery_size_estimates
to call get_typavgwidth; set_rel_width will handle it for us if we just
leave the estimate set to zero. Remove the unnecessary code.
Per report from Erik Rijkers and subsequent investigation.
The previous coding would result in deleting and not re-creating the
extension membership pg_depend rows, since there was no
CommandCounterIncrement that would allow recordDependencyOnCurrentExtension
to see that the deletion had happened. Make it work like the shell type
case, ie, keep the existing entries (and then throw an error if they're for
the wrong extension).
Per bug #6172 from Hitoshi Harada. Investigation and fix by Dimitri
Fontaine.
Due to tuple-slot mismanagement, evaluation of WHEN conditions for AFTER
ROW UPDATE triggers could crash if there had been a BEFORE ROW trigger
fired for the same update. Fix by not trying to overload the use of
estate->es_trig_tuple_slot. Per report from Yoran Heling.
Back-patch to 9.0, when trigger WHEN conditions were introduced.
As pointed out by Sergey Koposov, repeated invocations of tbm_lossify can
make building a large tidbitmap into an O(N^2) operation. To fix, make
sure we remove more than the minimum amount of information per call, and
add a fallback path to behave sanely if we're unable to fit the bitmap
within the requested amount of memory.
This has been wrong since the tidbitmap code was written, so back-patch
to all supported branches.
Eliminate dependencies on "which", as we don't really need that to be
installed for proper testing. Don't number the tests, as that increases
the footprint of every patch that wants to add or remove tests. Make
the test output more informative, so that it's a bit easier to see what
went right (or wrong). Spelling and grammar improvements.
contrib/xml2 can get by without libxslt; the relevant features just
won't work. But if doesn't have libxml2, or if sepgsql doesn't have
libselinux, the link succeeds but the module then fails to work at load
time. To avoid that, link the require libraries unconditionally, so
that it will be clear at link-time that there is a problem.
Per discussion with Tom Lane and KaiGai Kohei.
Now that we have a test that requires nondefault settings to pass, it seems
like we'd better mention that detail in the directions about how to run the
tests.
Also do some very minor copy-editing.
order of begin, prepare, and commit of three concurrent transactions that
have conflicts between them.
The test runs for a quite long time, and the expected output file is huge,
but this test caught some serious bugs during development, so seems
worthwhile to keep. The test uses prepared transactions, so it fails if the
server has max_prepared_transactions=0. Because of that, it's marked as
"ignore" in the schedule file.

Perhaps we ought to add some other kind of documentation here instead,
but for now let's get rid of this woefully obsolete description of the
sinval machinery.
Because of ABI tagging, the library version number might no longer be
exactly the Python version number, so do extra lookups. This affects
installations without a shared library, such as ActiveState's
installer.
Also update the way to detect the location of the 'config' directory,
which can also be versioned.

Module initialization functions in Python 3 must have external
linkage, because PyMODINIT_FUNC does dllexport on Windows-like
platforms. Without this change, the build with Python 3 fails on
Windows.
Dropped columns within a composite type were not handled correctly.
Also, we did not check for whether a composite result type had changed
since we cached the information about it.
Jan Urbański, per a bug report from Jean-Baptiste Quenot
This requires adjusting the API for syscache callback functions: they now
get a hash value, not a TID, to identify the target tuple. Most of them
weren't paying any attention to that argument anyway, but plancache did
require a small amount of fixing.
Also, improve performance a trifle by avoiding sending duplicate inval
messages when a heap_update isn't changing the catcache lookup columns.
The TID isn't stable enough: we might queue an sinval event before a VACUUM
FULL, and then process it afterwards, when the target tuple no longer has
the same TID. So we must invalidate entries on the basis of hash value
only. The old coding can be shown to result in various bizarre,
hard-to-reproduce errors in the presence of concurrent VACUUM FULLs on
system catalogs, and could easily result in permanent catalog corruption,
up to and including complete loss of tables.
This commit is just a minimal fix that removes the unsafe comparison.
We should remove transmission of the tuple TID from sinval messages
altogether, and then arrange to suppress the extra message in the common
case of a heap_update that doesn't change the key hashvalue. But that's
going to be much more invasive, and will only produce a probably-marginal
performance gain, so it doesn't seem like material for a back-patch.
Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, VACUUM FULL refused to do any tuple moving
if it found any INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuples (and
CLUSTER would give up altogether), so there was no risk of moving a tuple
that might be the subject of an unsent sinval message.
We have to be sure that we have revalidated each nailed-in-cache relcache
entry before we try to use it to load data for some other relcache entry.
The introduction of "mapped relations" in 9.0 broke this, because although
we updated the state kept in relmapper.c early enough, we failed to
propagate that information into relcache entries soon enough; in
particular, we could try to fetch pg_class rows out of pg_class before
we'd updated its relcache entry's rd_node.relNode value from the map.
This bug accounts for Dave Gould's report of failures after "vacuum full
pg_class", and I believe that there is risk for other system catalogs
as well.
The core part of the fix is to copy relmapper data into the relcache
entries during "phase 1" in RelationCacheInvalidate(), before they'll be
used in "phase 2". To try to future-proof the code against other similar
bugs, I also rearranged the order in which nailed relations are visited
during phase 2: now it's pg_class first, then pg_class_oid_index, then
other nailed relations. This should ensure that RelationClearRelation can
apply RelationReloadIndexInfo to all nailed indexes without risking use
of not-yet-revalidated relcache entries.
Back-patch to 9.0 where the relation mapper was introduced.
This works around the problem that a catalog cache entry might contain a
toast pointer that we try to dereference just as a VACUUM FULL completes
on that catalog. We will see the sinval message on the cache entry when
we acquire lock on the toast table, but by that point we've already told
tuptoaster.c "here's the pointer to fetch", so it's difficult from a code
structural standpoint to update the pointer before we use it. Much less
painful to ensure that toast pointers are not invalidated in the first
place. We have to add a bit of code to deal with the case that a value
that previously wasn't toasted becomes so; but that should be a
seldom-exercised corner case, so the inefficiency shouldn't be significant.
Back-patch to 9.0. In prior versions, we didn't allow CLUSTER on system
catalogs, and VACUUM FULL didn't result in reassignment of toast OIDs, so
there was no problem.
The previous code tried to synchronize by unlinking the init file twice,
but that doesn't actually work: it leaves a window wherein a third process
could read the already-stale init file but miss the SI messages that would
tell it the data is stale. The result would be bizarre failures in catalog
accesses, typically "could not read block 0 in file ..." later during
startup.
Instead, hold RelCacheInitLock across both the unlink and the sending of
the SI messages. This is more straightforward, and might even be a bit
faster since only one unlink call is needed.
This has been wrong since it was put in (in 2002!), so back-patch to all
supported releases.
When streaming including WAL, the size estimate will always be incorrect,
since we don't know how much WAL is included. To make sure the output doesn't
look completely unreasonable, this patch increases the total size whenever we
go past the estimate, to make sure we never go above 100%.
