Commit bda76c1c8c caused both plus and
minus infinity to be rendered as "infinity", which is not only wrong

closely. Per bug #13687 from Stepan Perlov. Back-patch to 9.4, like
the previous commit.

Per a report from Shay Rojansky, Npgsql sends ssl_renegotiation_limit=0
in the startup packet because it does not support renegotiation; other
clients which have not attempted to support renegotiation might well
behave similarly. The recent removal of this parameter forces them to
break compatibility with either current PostgreSQL versions, or
previous ones. Per discussion, the best solution is to accept the
parameter but only allow a value of 0.

Commit 0e57b4d8bd contained some clever
logic that attempted to make sure that we couldn't get confused about
whether the last thing we cached was a strcoll() result or a strxfrm()
result, but it wasn't quite clever enough, because we can perform
further abbreviations after having already performed some comparisons.
Introduce an explicit flag in the hopes of making this watertight.

Instead, use transaction abort. Given an unlucky bout of latency, the
timeout would cancel the RESET itself. Buildfarm members gharial,
lapwing, mereswine, shearwater, and sungazer witness that. Back-patch
to 9.1 (all supported versions). The query_canceled test still could
timeout before entering its subtransaction; for whatever reason, that
has yet to happen on the buildfarm.
pg_regprefix was doing nothing with lookahead constraints, which would
be fine if it were the right kind of nothing, but it isn't: we have to
terminate our search for a fixed prefix, not just pretend the LACON arc
isn't there. Otherwise, if the current state has both a LACON outarc and a
single plain-color outarc, we'd falsely conclude that the color represents
an addition to the fixed prefix, and generate an extracted index condition
that restricts the indexscan too much. (See added regression test case.)
Terminating the search is conservative: we could traverse the LACON arc
(thus assuming that the constraint can be satisfied at runtime) and then
examine the outarcs of the linked-to state. But that would be a lot more
work than it seems worth, because writing a LACON followed by a single
plain character is a pretty silly thing to do.
This makes a difference only in rather contrived cases, but it's a bug,
so back-patch to all supported branches.
Using this API, one backend can set up a ParallelHeapScanDesc to
which multiple backends can then attach. Each tuple in the relation
will be returned to exactly one of the scanning backends. Only
forward scans are supported, and rescans must be carefully
coordinated.
This is not exposed to the planner or executor yet.
The original version of this code was written by me. Amit Kapila

Final cleanup of this patch by me.
This may allow some callers to avoid the overhead involved in tearing
down a parallel context and then setting up a new one, which means
releasing the DSM and then allocating and populating a new one. I
suspect we'll want to revise the Gather node to make use of this new
capability, but even if not it may be useful elsewhere and requires
very little additional code.

Add some more documentation in the README file, and some regression tests
illustrating cases that exceeded the state-count limit and/or took
unreasonable amounts of time before this set of patches.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
This code previously counted the number of NFA states it created, and
complained if a limit was exceeded, so as to prevent bizarre regex patterns
from consuming unreasonable time or memory. That's fine as far as it went,
but the code paid no attention to how many arcs linked those states. Since
regexes can be contrived that have O(N) states but will need O(N^2) arcs
after fixempties() processing, it was still possible to blow out memory,
and take a long time doing it too. To fix, modify the bookkeeping to count
space used by both states and arcs.
I did not bother with including the "color map" in the accounting; it
can only grow to a few megabytes, which is not a lot in comparison to
what we're allowing for states+arcs (about 150MB on 64-bit machines
or half that on 32-bit machines).
Looking at some of the larger real-world regexes captured in the Tcl
regression test suite suggests that the most that is likely to be needed
for regexes found in the wild is under 10MB, so I believe that the current
limit has enough headroom to make it okay to keep it as a hard-wired limit.
In connection with this, redefine REG_ETOOBIG as meaning "regular
expression is too complex"; the previous wording of "nfa has too many
states" was already somewhat inapropos because of the error code's use
for stack depth overrun, and it was not very user-friendly either.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
The previous coding would create a new intermediate state every time it
wanted to interchange the ordering of two constraint arcs. Certain regex
features such as \Y can generate large numbers of parallel constraint arcs,
and if we needed to reorder the results of that, we created unreasonable
numbers of intermediate states. To improve matters, keep a list of
already-created intermediate states associated with the state currently
being considered by the outer loop; we can re-use such states to place all
the new arcs leading to the same destination or source.
I also took the trouble to redefine push() and pull() to have a less risky
API: they no longer delete any state or arc that the caller might possibly
have a pointer to, except for the specifically-passed constraint arc.
This reduces the risk of re-introducing the same type of error seen in
the failed patch for CVE-2007-4772.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
The previous coding took something like O(N^4) time to fully process a
chain of N EMPTY arcs. We can't really do much better than O(N^2) because
we have to insert about that many arcs, but we can do lots better than
what's there now. The win comes partly from using mergeins() to amortize
de-duplication of arcs across multiple source states, and partly from
exploiting knowledge of the ordering of arcs for each state to avoid
looking at arcs we don't need to consider during the scan. We do have
to be a bit careful of the possible reordering of arcs introduced by
the sort-merge coding of the previous commit, but that's not hard to
deal with.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
Change the singly-linked in-arc and out-arc lists to be doubly-linked,
so that arc deletion is constant time rather than having worst-case time
proportional to the number of other arcs on the connected states.
Modify the bulk arc transfer operations copyins(), copyouts(), moveins(),
moveouts() so that they use a sort-and-merge algorithm whenever there's
more than a small number of arcs to be copied or moved. The previous
method is O(N^2) in the number of arcs involved, because it performs
duplicate checking independently for each copied arc. The new method may
change the ordering of existing arcs for the destination state, but nothing
really cares about that.
Provide another bulk arc copying method mergeins(), which is unused as
of this commit but is needed for the next one. It basically is like
copyins(), but the source arcs might not all come from the same state.
Replace the O(N^2) bubble-sort algorithm used in carcsort() with a qsort()
call.
These changes greatly improve the performance of regex compilation for
large or complex regexes, at the cost of extra space for arc storage during
compilation. The original tradeoff was probably fine when it was made, but
now we care more about speed and less about memory consumption.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
It's possible to construct regular expressions that contain loops of
constraint arcs (that is, ^ $ AHEAD BEHIND or LACON arcs). There's no use
in fully traversing such a loop at execution, since you'd just end up in
the same NFA state without having consumed any input. Worse, such a loop
leads to infinite looping in the pullback/pushfwd stage of compilation,
because we keep pushing or pulling the same constraints around the loop
in a vain attempt to move them to the pre or post state. Such looping was
previously recognized in CVE-2007-4772; but the fix only handled the case
of trivial single-state loops (that is, a constraint arc leading back to
its source state) ... and not only that, it was incorrect even for that
case, because it broke the admittedly-not-very-clearly-stated API contract
of the pull() and push() subroutines. The first two regression test cases
added by this commit exhibit patterns that result in assertion failures
because of that (though there seem to be no ill effects in non-assert
builds). The other new test cases exhibit multi-state constraint loops;
in an unpatched build they will run until the NFA state-count limit is
exceeded.
To fix, remove the code added for CVE-2007-4772, and instead create a
general-purpose constraint-loop-breaking phase of regex compilation that
executes before we do pullback/pushfwd. Since we never need to traverse
a constraint loop fully, we can just break the loop at any chosen spot,
if we add clone states that can replicate any sequence of arc transitions
that would've traversed just part of the loop.
Also add some commentary clarifying why we have to have all these
machinations in the first place.
This class of problems has been known for some time --- we had a report
from Marc Mamin about two years ago, for example, and there are related
complaints in the Tcl bug tracker. I had discussed a fix of this kind
off-list with Henry Spencer, but didn't get around to doing something
about it until the issue was rediscovered by Greg Stark recently.

In order for this to be safe, the code which hands true serializability
will need to taught that the SIRead locks taken by a parallel worker
pertain to the same transaction as those taken by the parallel leader.
Some further changes may be needed as well. Until the necessary
adaptations are made, don't generate parallel plans in serializable
mode, and if a previously-generated parallel plan is used after
serializable mode has been activated, run it serially.
This fixes a bug in commit 7aea8e4f2d.
In the previous coding, before returning from ExecutorRun, we'd shut
down all parallel workers. This was dead wrong if ExecutorRun was
called with a non-zero tuple count; it had the effect of truncating
the query output. To fix, give ExecutePlan control over whether to
enter parallel mode, and have it refuse to do so if the tuple count
is non-zero. Rewrite the Gather logic so that it can cope with being
called outside parallel mode.
Commit 7aea8e4f2d is largely to blame
for this problem, though this patch modifies some subsequently-committed
code which relied on the guarantees it purported to make.
Commit 7aea8e4f2d was overoptimistic
about the degree of safety associated with running various functions
in parallel mode. Functions that take a table name or OID as an
argument are at least parallel-restricted, because the table might be
temporary, and we currently don't allow parallel workers to touch
temporary tables. Functions that take a query as an argument are
outright unsafe, because the query could be anything, including a
parallel-unsafe query.
Also, the queue of pending notifications is backend-private, so adding
to it from a worker doesn't behave correctly. We could fix this by
transferring the worker's queue of pending notifications to the master
during worker cleanup, but that seems like more trouble than it's
worth for now. In addition to adjusting the pg_proc.h markings, also
add an explicit check for this in async.c.
check_role() tries to verify that the user has permission to become the
requested role, but this is inappropriate in a parallel worker, which
needs to exactly recreate the master's authorization settings. So skip
the check in that case.
This fixes a bug in commit 924bcf4f16.
Starting a parallel worker transaction changes our notion of which XIDs
are in-progress or committed, and our notion of the current command
counter ID. Therefore, our view of these caches prior to starting
this transaction may no longer valid. Defend against that by clearing
them.
This fixes a bug in commit 924bcf4f16.
Commit 924bcf4f16 failed to enforce
parallel mode checks during the commit of a parallel worker, because
we exited parallel mode prior to ending the transaction so that we
could pop the active snapshot. Re-establish parallel mode during
parallel worker commit. Without this, it's far too easy for unsafe
actions during the pre-commit sequence to crash the server instead of
hitting the error checks as intended.
Just to be extra paranoid, adjust a couple of the sanity checks in
xact.c to check not only IsInParallelMode() but also
IsParallelWorker().
Commit 924bcf4f16 correctly forbade
parallel workers to modify the command counter while in parallel mode,
but it inexplicably neglected to actually transfer the current command
counter from leader to workers. This can result in the workers seeing
a different set of tuples from the leader, which is bad. Repair.
Commit 2bd9e412f9 introduced a mechanism
for relaying protocol messages from a background worker to another
backend via a shm_mq. However, there was no provision for shutting
down the communication channel. Therefore, a protocol message sent
late in the shutdown sequence, such as a DEBUG message resulting from
cranking up log_min_messages, could crash the server. To fix, install
an on_dsm_detach callback that disables sending messages to the shm_mq
when the associated DSM is detached.
The function failed to adhere to its specification that the "tcategory"
argument should not be examined when the input value is NULL. This
resulted in a crash in some cases. Per bug #13680 from Boyko Yordanov.
In passing, re-pgindent some recent changes in jsonb.c, and fix a rather
ungrammatical comment.
Diagnosis and patch by Michael Paquier, cosmetic changes by me
This fixes a long-standing bug which was discovered while investigating
the interaction between the new join pushdown code and the EvalPlanQual
machinery: if a ForeignScan appears on the inner side of a paramaterized
nestloop, an EPQ recheck would re-return the original tuple even if
it no longer satisfied the pushed-down quals due to changed parameter
values.
This fix adds a new member to ForeignScan and ForeignScanState and a
new argument to make_foreignscan, and requires changes to FDWs which
push down quals to populate that new argument with a list of quals they
have chosen to push down. Therefore, I'm only back-patching to 9.5,
even though the bug is not new in 9.5.

Per Mark Johnston, this resolves a build error on FreeBSD related
to the fact that dtrace is modifying the generated object files
under the hood. Consequently, without this, dtrace gets reinvoked
at install time because the object files have been updated. This
is a pretty hacky fix, but it shouldn't hurt anything, and it's
not clear that it's worth expending any more effort for a feature
that not too many people are using.
Patch by Mark Johnston. This is arguably back-patchable as a bug
fix to the build system, but I'm not certain enough of the
consequences to try that. Let's see what the buildfarm (and
our packagers) think of this change on master first.
Postmaster child processes that aren't supposed to be attached to shared
memory were not bothering to close the shared memory mapping handle they
inherit from the postmaster process. That's mostly harmless, since the
handle vanishes anyway when the child process exits -- but the syslogger
process, if used, doesn't get killed and restarted during recovery from a
backend crash. That meant that Windows doesn't see the shared memory
mapping as becoming free, so it doesn't delete it and the postmaster is
unable to create a new one, resulting in failure to recover from crashes
whenever logging_collector is turned on.
Per report from Dmitry Vasilyev. It's a bit astonishing that we'd not
figured this out long ago, since it's been broken from the very beginnings
of out native Windows support; probably some previously-unexplained trouble
reports trace to this.
A secondary problem is that on Cygwin (perhaps only in older versions?),
exec() may not detach from the shared memory segment after all, in which
case these child processes did remain attached to shared memory, posing
the risk of an unexpected shared memory clobber if they went off the rails
somehow. That may be a long-gone bug, but we can deal with it now if it's
still live, by detaching within the infrastructure introduced here to deal
with closing the handle.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

pg_ctl start with -w previously relied on a heuristic that the postmaster
would surely always manage to create postmaster.pid within five seconds.
Unfortunately, that fails much more often than we would like on some of the
slower, more heavily loaded buildfarm members.
We have known for quite some time that we could remove the need for that
heuristic on Unix by using fork/exec instead of system() to launch the
postmaster. This allows us to know the exact PID of the postmaster, which
allows near-certain verification that the postmaster.pid file is the one
we want and not a leftover, and it also lets us use waitpid() to detect
reliably whether the child postmaster has exited or not.
What was blocking this change was not wanting to rewrite the Windows
version of start_postmaster() to avoid use of CMD.EXE. That's doable
in theory but would require fooling about with stdout/stderr redirection,
and getting the handling of quote-containing postmaster switches to
stay the same might be rather ticklish. However, we realized that
we don't have to do that to fix the problem, because we can test
whether the shell process has exited as a proxy for whether the
postmaster is still alive. That doesn't allow an exact check of the
PID in postmaster.pid, but we're no worse off than before in that
respect; and we do get to get rid of the heuristic about how long the
postmaster might take to create postmaster.pid.
On Unix, this change means that a second "pg_ctl start -w" immediately
after another such command will now reliably fail, whereas previously
it would succeed if done within two seconds of the earlier command.
Since that's a saner behavior anyway, it's fine. On Windows, the case can
still succeed within the same time window, since pg_ctl can't tell that the
earlier postmaster's postmaster.pid isn't the pidfile it is looking for.
To ensure stable test results on Windows, we can insert a short sleep into
the test script for pg_ctl, ensuring that the existing pidfile looks stale.
This hack can be removed if we ever do rewrite start_postmaster(), but that
no longer seems like a high-priority thing to do.
Back-patch to all supported versions, both because the current behavior
is buggy and because we must do that if we want the buildfarm failures
to go away.

Many functions stored JsonbIteratorToken values in variables of other
integer types. Also, standardize order relative to other declarations.
Expect compilers to generate the same code before and after this change.
Cache strxfrm() blobs across calls made to the text SortSupport
abbreviation routine. This can speed up sorting if the same string
needs to be abbreviated many times in a row.
Also, cache the result of the previous strcoll() comparison, so that
if we're asked to compare the same strings agin, we do need to call
strcoll() again.
Perhaps surprisingly, these optimizations don't seem to hurt even when
they don't help. memcmp() is really cheap compared to strcoll() or
strxfrm().

If we do some byte-swapping while abbreviating, we can do comparisons

This flag has proven to be a recipe for bugs, and it doesn't seem like

Per my recent proposal on pgsql-hackers.
During expand_security_quals, we take the security barrier quals on an
RTE and create a subquery which evaluates the quals. During this, we
have to replace any variables in the outer query which refer to the
original RTE with references to the columns from the subquery.
We need to also perform that replacement for any Vars in the
append_rel_list.

The postmaster now checks every minute or so (worst case, at most two
minutes) that postmaster.pid is still there and still contains its own PID.
If not, it performs an immediate shutdown, as though it had received
SIGQUIT.
The original goal behind this change was to ensure that failed buildfarm
runs would get fully cleaned up, even if the test scripts had left a
postmaster running, which is not an infrequent occurrence. When the
buildfarm script removes a test postmaster's $PGDATA directory, its next
check on postmaster.pid will fail and cause it to exit. Previously, manual
intervention was often needed to get rid of such orphaned postmasters,
since they'd block new test postmasters from obtaining the expected socket
address.
However, by checking postmaster.pid and not something else, we can provide
additional robustness: manual removal of postmaster.pid is a frequent DBA
mistake, and now we can at least limit the damage that will ensue if a new
postmaster is started while the old one is still alive.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since we won't get the desired
improvement in buildfarm reliability otherwise.

An array type's element type is never itself an array type, so array

On reflection, the submitted patch didn't really work to prevent the
request size from exceeding MaxAllocSize, because of the fact that we'd
happily round nbuckets up to the next power of 2 after we'd limited it to
max_pointers. The simplest way to enforce the limit correctly is to
round max_pointers down to a power of 2 when it isn't one already.
(Note that the constraint to INT_MAX / 2, if it were doing anything useful
at all, is properly applied after that.)
Limit the size of the hashtable pointer array to not more than
MaxAllocSize, per reports from Kouhei Kaigai and others of "invalid memory
alloc request size" failures. There was discussion of allowing the array
to get larger than that by using the "huge" palloc API, but so far no proof
that that is actually a good idea, and at this point in the 9.5 cycle major
changes from old behavior don't seem like the way to go.
Fix a rather serious secondary bug in the new code, which was that it
didn't ensure nbuckets remained a power of 2 when recomputing it for the

Without CASCADE, if an extension has an unfullfilled dependency on
another extension, CREATE EXTENSION ERRORs out with "required extension

In addition to CASCADE this also includes a small set of regression

3) It was possible to reference system columns in the EXCLUDED pseudo
relations, even though they would not have valid contents.
4) References to EXCLUDED were rewritten by the RLS machinery, as
EXCLUDED was treated as if it were the underlying relation.
To fix the first two issues, generate the excluded targetlist with
dropped columns in mind and add an entry for whole row
variables. Instead of unconditionally adding a wholerow entry we could
pull up the expression if needed, but doing it unconditionally seems
simpler. The wholerow entry is only really needed for ruleutils/EXPLAIN
support anyway.
The remaining two issues are addressed by changing the EXCLUDED RTE to
have relkind = composite. That fits with EXCLUDED not actually being a
real relation, and allows to treat it differently in the relevant
places. scanRTEForColumn now skips looking up system columns when the
RTE has a composite relkind; fireRIRrules() already had a corresponding
check, thereby preventing RLS expansion on EXCLUDED.
Also add tests for these issues, and improve a few comments around
excluded handling in setrefs.c.

Backpatch: 9.5, where ON CONFLICT was introduced
DST law changes in Cayman Islands, Fiji, Moldova, Morocco, Norfolk Island,
North Korea, Turkey, Uruguay. New zone America/Fort_Nelson for Canadian

Some of the functions in regex compilation and execution recurse, and
therefore could in principle be driven to stack overflow. The Tcl crew
has seen this happen in practice in duptraverse(), though their fix was
to put in a hard-wired limit on the number of recursive levels, which is
not too appetizing --- fortunately, we have enough infrastructure to check
the actually available stack. Greg Stark has also seen it in other places
while fuzz testing on a machine with limited stack space. Let's put guards
in to prevent crashes in all these places.
Since the regex code would leak memory if we simply threw elog(ERROR),
we have to introduce an API that checks for stack depth without throwing
such an error. Fortunately that's not difficult.
In cfindloop(), if the initial call to shortest() reports that a
zero-length match is possible at the current search start point, but then
it is unable to construct any actual match to that, it'll just loop around
with the same start point, and thus make no progress. We need to force the
start point to be advanced. This is safe because the loop over "begin"
points has already tried and failed to match starting at "close", so there
is surely no need to try that again.
This bug was introduced in commit e2bd904955,
wherein we allowed continued searching after we'd run out of match
possibilities, but evidently failed to think hard enough about exactly
where we needed to search next.
Because of the way this code works, such a match failure is only possible
in the presence of backrefs --- otherwise, shortest()'s judgment that a
match is possible should always be correct. That probably explains how
come the bug has escaped detection for several years.
The actual fix is a one-liner, but I took the trouble to add/improve some
comments related to the loop logic.
After fixing that, the submitted test case "()*\1" didn't loop anymore.
But it reported failure, though it seems like it ought to match a
zero-length string; both Tcl and Perl think it does. That seems to be from
overenthusiastic optimization on my part when I rewrote the iteration match
logic in commit 173e29aa5deefd9e71c183583ba37805c8102a72: we can't just
"declare victory" for a zero-length match without bothering to set match
data for capturing parens inside the iterator node.
Per fuzz testing by Greg Stark. The first part of this is a bug in all
supported branches, and the second part is a bug since 9.2 where the
iteration rewrite happened.
Commit 9662143f0c added infrastructure to
allow regular-expression operations to be terminated early in the event
of SIGINT etc. However, fuzz testing by Greg Stark disclosed that there
are still cases where regex compilation could run for a long time without
noticing a cancel request. Specifically, the fixempties() phase never
adds new states, only new arcs, so it doesn't hit the cancel check I'd put
in newstate(). Add one to newarc() as well to cover that.
Some experimentation of my own found that regex execution could also run
for a long time despite a pending cancel. We'd put a high-level cancel
check into cdissect(), but there was none inside the core text-matching
routines longest() and shortest(). Ordinarily those inner loops are very
very fast ... but in the presence of lookahead constraints, not so much.
As a compromise, stick a cancel check into the stateset cache-miss
function, which is enough to guarantee a cancel check at least once per
lookahead constraint test.
Making this work required more attention to error handling throughout the
regex executor. Henry Spencer had apparently originally intended longest()
and shortest() to be incapable of incurring errors while running, so
neither they nor their subroutines had well-defined error reporting
behaviors. However, that was already broken by the lookahead constraint
feature, since lacon() can surely suffer an out-of-memory failure ---
which, in the code as it stood, might never be reported to the user at all,
but just silently be treated as a non-match of the lookahead constraint.
Normalize all that by inserting explicit error tests as needed. I took the
opportunity to add some more comments to the code, too.
Back-patch to all supported branches, like the previous patch.
The output of a typical pg_rewind run contained a mix of capitalized and
not-capitalized and punctuated and not-punctuated phrases for no
apparent reason. Make that consistent. Also fix some problems in other
messages.
This case seems to have been overlooked when unvalidated check constraints
were introduced, in 9.2. The code would attempt to dump such constraints
over again for each child table, even though adding them to the parent
table is sufficient.
In 9.2 and 9.3, also fix contrib/pg_upgrade/Makefile so that the "make
clean" target fully cleans up after a failed test. This evidently got
dealt with at some point in 9.4, but it wasn't back-patched. I ran into
it while testing this fix ...
Per bug #13656 from Ingmar Brouns.
Module initialization was still not completely correct after commit
6b61955135, per crash report from Takashi Ohnishi. To fix, instead of
trying to monkey around with the value of the GUC setting directly, add
a separate boolean flag that enables the feature on a standby, but only
for the startup (recovery) process, when it sees that its master server
has the feature enabled.

Also change the deactivation routine to delete all segment files rather
than leaving the last one around. (This doesn't need separate
WAL-logging, because on recovery we execute the same deactivation
routine anyway.)
In passing, clean up the code structure somewhat, particularly so that
xlog.c doesn't know so much about when to activate/deactivate the
feature.
Thanks to Fujii Masao for testing and Petr Jelínek for off-list discussion.
Back-patch to 9.5, where commit_ts was introduced.
Previously "GRANT * ON * TO " was tab-completed to add an extra "TO",
rather than with a list of roles. This is the bug that commit 2f88807
introduced unexpectedly. This commit fixes that incorrect tab-completion.

If some existing listener is far behind, incoming new listener sessions
would start from that session's read pointer and then need to advance over
many already-committed notification messages, which they have no interest
in. This was expensive in itself and also thrashed the pg_notify SLRU
buffers a lot more than necessary. We can improve matters considerably
in typical scenarios, without much added cost, by starting from the
furthest-ahead read pointer, not the furthest-behind one. We do have to
consider only sessions in our own database when doing this, which requires
an extra field in the data structure, but that's a pretty small cost.
Back-patch to 9.0 where the current LISTEN/NOTIFY logic was introduced.
Matt Newell, slightly adjusted by me
A Gather executor node runs any number of copies of a plan in an equal
number of workers and merges all of the results into a single tuple
stream. It can also run the plan itself, if the workers are
unavailable or haven't started up yet. It is intended to work with
the Partial Seq Scan node which will be added in future commits.
It could also be used to implement parallel query of a different sort
by itself, without help from Partial Seq Scan, if the single_copy mode
is used. In that mode, a worker executes the plan, and the parallel
leader does not, merely collecting the worker's results. So, a Gather
node could be inserted into a plan to split the execution of that plan
across two processes. Nested Gather nodes aren't currently supported,
but we might want to add support for that in the future.
There's nothing in the planner to actually generate Gather nodes yet,
so it's not quite time to break out the champagne. But we're getting
close.
Amit Kapila. Some designs suggestions were provided by me, and I also
reviewed the patch. Single-copy mode, documentation, and other minor
changes also by me.
If a transaction or subtransaction creates a ParallelContext but ends
without calling InitializeParallelDSM, the previous code would
seg fault. Fix that.
When considering which policies should be included, rather than look at
individual bits of the query (eg: if a RETURNING clause exists, or if a
WHERE clause exists which is referencing the table, or if it's a
FOR SHARE/UPDATE query), consider any case where we've determined
the user needs SELECT rights on the relation while doing an UPDATE or
DELETE to be a case where we apply SELECT policies, and any case where
we've deteremind that the user needs UPDATE rights on the relation while
doing a SELECT to be a case where we apply UPDATE policies.
This simplifies the logic and addresses concerns that a user could use
UPDATE or DELETE with a WHERE clauses to determine if rows exist, or
they could use SELECT .. FOR UPDATE to lock rows which they are not
actually allowed to modify through UPDATE policies.
Use list_append_unique() to avoid adding the same quals multiple times,
as, on balance, the cost of checking when adding the quals will almost
always be cheaper than keeping them and doing busywork for each tuple
during execution.
Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was added.
We seem to have lost a line somewhere along the way in the comment block
that discusses async.c's locks, because it suddenly refers to "both locks"
without previously having mentioned more than one. Add a sentence to make
that read more sanely. Also, refer to the "pos of the slowest backend"
not the "tail of the slowest backend", since we have no per-backend value
called "tail".
The tolerance (larger than actual tps number) increases as the number
of threads decreases. The bug has been there since the thread support
was introduced in 9.0. Because back patching introduces incompatible
behavior changes regarding the tps number, the fix is committed to
master and 9.5 stable branches only.
Problem spotted by me and fix proposed by Fabien COELHO. Note that his
original patch included more than fixes (a code re-factoring) which is
not related to the problem and I omitted the part.
There are three main changes here:
1. No longer cause a start failure in a standby if the feature is
disabled in postgresql.conf but enabled in the master. This reverts one
part of commit 4f3924d9cd43; what we keep is the ability of the standby
to activate/deactivate the module (which includes creating and removing
segments as appropriate) during replay of such actions in the master.
2. Replay WAL records affecting commitTS even if the feature is
disabled. This means the standby will always have the same state as the
master after replay.
3. Have COMMIT PREPARE record the transaction commit time as well. We
were previously only applying it in the normal transaction commit path.

Additionally, I cleaned up nearby code related to replication origins,
which I found a bit hard to follow, and fixed a couple of typos.
Backpatch to 9.5, where this code was introduced.
Per bug reports from Fujii Masao and subsequent discussion.
We were passing error message texts to croak() verbatim, which turns out
not to work if the text contains non-ASCII characters; Perl mangles their
encoding, as reported in bug #13638 from Michal Leinweber. To fix, convert
the text into a UTF8-encoded SV first.
It's hard to test this without risking failures in different database
encodings; but we can follow the lead of plpython, which is already
assuming that no-break space (U+00A0) has an equivalent in all encodings
we care about running the regression tests in (cf commit 2dfa15de5).
Back-patch to 9.1. The code is quite different in 9.0, and anyway it seems
too risky to put something like this into 9.0's final minor release.
Alex Hunsaker, with suggestions from Tim Bunce and Tom Lane
This code provides infrastructure for a parallel leader to start up
parallel workers to execute subtrees of the plan tree being executed
in the master. User-supplied parameters from ParamListInfo are passed
down, but PARAM_EXEC parameters are not. Various other constructs,
such as initplans, subplans, and CTEs, are also not currently shared.
Nevertheless, there's enough here to support a basic implementation of
parallel query, and we can lift some of the current restrictions as
needed.
