Peter Eisentraut f463335e1f Fix some BufFileRead() error reporting
Remove "%m" from error messages where errno would be bogus.  Add short
read byte counts where appropriate.

This is equivalent to what was done in
7897e3bb90, but some code was apparently
developed concurrently to that and not updated accordingly.

Tom Lane a8b88c26f7 Make new GENERATED-expressions code more bulletproof.
In commit 8bf6ec3ba I assumed that no code path could reach
ExecGetExtraUpdatedCols without having gone through
ExecInitStoredGenerated.  That turns out not to be the case in
logical replication: if there's an ON UPDATE trigger on the target
table, trigger.c will call this code before anybody has set up its
generated columns.  Having seen that, I don't have a lot of faith in
there not being other such paths.  ExecGetExtraUpdatedCols can call
ExecInitStoredGenerated for itself, as long as we are willing to
assume that it is only called in CMD_UPDATE operations, which on
the whole seems like a safer leap of faith.

Per report from Vitaly Davydov.

Thomas Munro 547e60b831 Fix WaitEventSetWait() buffer overrun.
The WAIT_USE_EPOLL and WAIT_USE_KQUEUE implementations of
WaitEventSetWaitBlock() confused the size of their internal buffer with
the size of the caller's output buffer, and could ask the kernel for too
many events.  In fact the set of events retrieved from the kernel needs
to be able to fit in both buffers, so take the smaller of the two.

The WAIT_USE_POLL and WAIT_USE WIN32 implementations didn't have this
confusion.

This probably didn't come up before because we always used the same
number in both places, but commit 7389aad6 calculates a dynamic size at
construction time, while using MAXLISTEN for its output event buffer on
the stack.  That seems like a reasonable thing to want to do, so
consider this to be a pre-existing bug worth fixing.

As discovered by valgrind on skink.

Back-patch to all supported releases for epoll, and to release 13 for
the kqueue part, which copied the incorrect epoll code.

Alexander Korotkov 0d9221f1d2 Fix jsonpath existense checking of missing variables
The current jsonpath code assumes that the referenced variable always exists.
It could only throw an error at the value valuation time.  At the same time
existence checking assumes variable is present without valuation, and error
suppression doesn't work for missing variables.

This commit makes existense checking trigger an error for missing variables.
This makes the overall behavior consistent.

Tom Lane 8cd190e13a Fix calculation of which GENERATED columns need to be updated.
We were identifying the updatable generated columns of inheritance
children by transposing the calculation made for their parent.
However, there's nothing that says a traditional-inheritance child
can't have generated columns that aren't there in its parent, or that
have different dependencies than are in the parent's expression.
(At present it seems that we don't enforce that for partitioning
either, which is likely wrong to some degree or other; but the case
clearly needs to be handled with traditional inheritance.)

Hence, drop the very-klugy-anyway "extraUpdatedCols" RTE field
in favor of identifying which generated columns depend on updated
columns during executor startup.  In HEAD we can remove
extraUpdatedCols altogether; in back branches, it's still there but
always empty.  Another difference between the HEAD and back-branch
versions of this patch is that in HEAD we can add the new bitmap field
to ResultRelInfo, but that would cause an ABI break in back branches.
Like 4b3e37993, add a List field at the end of struct EState instead.

Back-patch to v13.  The bogus calculation is also being made in v12,
but it doesn't have the same visible effect because we don't use it
to decide which generated columns to recalculate; as a consequence of
which the patch doesn't apply easily.  I think that there might still
be a demonstrable bug associated with trigger firing conditions, but
that's such a weird corner-case usage that I'm content to leave it
unfixed in v12.

Andres Freund 7b5dec760f perl: Hide warnings inside perl.h when using gcc compatible compiler
New versions of perl trigger warnings within perl.h with our compiler
flags. At least -Wdeclaration-after-statement, -Wshadow=compatible-local are
known to be problematic.

To avoid these warnings, conditionally use #pragma GCC system_header before
including plperl.h.

Alternatively, we could add the include paths for problematic headers with
-isystem, but that is a larger hammer and is harder to search for.

A more granular alternative would be to use #pragma GCC diagnostic
push/ignored/pop, but gcc warns about unknown warnings being ignored, so every
to-be-ignored-temporarily compiler warning would require its own pg_config.h
symbol and #ifdef.

As the warnings are voluminous, it makes sense to backpatch this change. But
don't do so yet, we first want gather buildfarm coverage - it's e.g. possible
that some compiler claiming to be gcc compatible has issues with the pragma.

Tom Lane a02740e53f Avoid reference to nonexistent array element in ExecInitAgg().
When considering an empty grouping set, we fetched
phasedata->eqfunctions[-1].  Because the eqfunctions array is
palloc'd, that would always be an aset pointer in released versions,
and thus the code accidentally failed to malfunction (since it would
do nothing unless it found a null pointer).  Nonetheless this seems
like trouble waiting to happen, so add a check for length == 0.

It's depressing that our valgrind testing did not catch this.
Maybe we should reconsider the choice to not mark that word NOACCESS?

When brin_minmax_multi_union merges summaries, we may end up with just a
single range after merge_overlapping_ranges. The summaries may contain
just one range each, and they may overlap (or be exactly the same).

With a single range there's no distance to calculate, but we happen to
call build_distances anyway - which is fine, we don't calculate the
distance in this case, except that with asserts this failed due to a
check there are at least two ranges.

The assert is unnecessarily strict, so relax it a bit and bail out if
there's just a single range. The relaxed assert would be enough, but

Tom Lane f489b480f4 Fix contrib/seg to be more wary of long input numbers.
seg stores the number of significant digits in an input number
in a "char" field.  If char is signed, and the input is more than
127 digits long, the count can read out as negative causing
seg_out() to print garbage (or, if you're really unlucky,
even crash).

To fix, clamp the digit count to be not more than FLT_DIG.
(In theory this loses some information about what the original
input was, but it doesn't seem like useful information; it would
not survive dump/restore in any case.)

Also, in case there are stored values of the seg type containing
bad data, add a clamp in seg_out's restore() subroutine.

David Rowley 171d7746a2 Re-adjust drop-index-concurrently-1 isolation test
It seems that drop-index-concurrently-1 has started to forget what it was
originally meant to be testing.  d2d8a229b, which added incremental sorts
changed the expected plan to be an Index Scan plan instead of a Seq Scan
plan.  This occurred as the primary key index of the table in question
provided presorted input and, because that index happened to be the
cheapest input path due to enable_seqscan being disabled, the incremental
sort changes just added a Sort on top of that.  It seems based on the name
of the PREPAREd statement that the intention here is that the query
produces a seqscan plan.

The reason this test has become broken seems to be due to how the test was
originally coded.  The test was trying to force a seqscan plan by
performing some casting to make it so the test_dc index couldn't be used
to perform the required filtering.  Trying to coax the planner into using
a plan which has costed in a disable_cost seems like it's always going to
be flakey as small changes in costs are drowned out by the large
disable_cost combined with add_path's STD_FUZZ_FACTOR.  Here we get rid of
the casts that we're using to try to trick the planner into a seqscan and
instead toggle enable_seqscan as and when required to get the desired
plan.

Additionally, rename a few things in the test and add some additional
wording to the comments to try and make it more clear in the future what
we expect this test to be doing.

Tom Lane ae47f8a966 Rethink handling of [Prevent|Is]InTransactionBlock in pipeline mode.
Commits f92944137 et al. made IsInTransactionBlock() set the
XACT_FLAGS_NEEDIMMEDIATECOMMIT flag before returning "false",
on the grounds that that kept its API promises equivalent to those of
PreventInTransactionBlock().  This turns out to be a bad idea though,
because it allows an ANALYZE in a pipelined series of commands to
cause an immediate commit, which is unexpected.

Furthermore, if we return "false" then we have another issue,
which is that ANALYZE will decide it's allowed to do internal
commit-and-start-transaction sequences, thus possibly unexpectedly
committing the effects of previous commands in the pipeline.

To fix the latter situation, invent another transaction state flag
XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING, which explicitly records the fact that we
have executed some extended-protocol command and not yet seen a
commit for it.  Then, require that flag to not be set before allowing
InTransactionBlock() to return "false".

Having done that, we can remove its setting of NEEDIMMEDIATECOMMIT
without fear of causing problems.  This means that the API guarantees
of IsInTransactionBlock now diverge from PreventInTransactionBlock,
which is mildly annoying, but it seems OK given the very limited usage
of IsInTransactionBlock.  (In any case, a caller preferring the old
behavior could always set NEEDIMMEDIATECOMMIT for itself.)

For consistency also require XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING to not be set
in PreventInTransactionBlock.  This too is meant to prevent commands
such as CREATE DATABASE from silently committing previous commands
in a pipeline.

Per report from Peter Eisentraut.  As before, back-patch to all

Tom Lane a18328bb33 Fix jsonb subscripting to cope with toasted subscript values.
jsonb_get_element() was incautious enough to use VARDATA() and
VARSIZE() directly on an arbitrary text Datum.  That of course
fails if the Datum is short-header, compressed, or out-of-line.
The typical result would be failing to match any element of a
jsonb object, though matching the wrong one seems possible as well.

setPathObject() was slightly brighter, in that it used VARDATA_ANY
and VARSIZE_ANY_EXHDR, but that only kept it out of trouble for
short-header Datums.  push_path() had the same issue.  This could
result in faulty subscripted insertions, though keys long enough to
cause a problem are likely rare in the wild.

Having seen these, I looked around for unsafe usages in the rest
of the adt/json* files.  There are a couple of places where it's not
immediately obvious that the Datum can't be compressed or out-of-line,
so I added pg_detoast_datum_packed() to cope if it is.  Also, remove
some other usages of VARDATA/VARSIZE on Datums we just extracted from
a text array.  Those aren't actively broken, but they will become so
if we ever start allowing short-header array elements, which does not
seem like a terribly unreasonable thing to do.  In any case they are
not great coding examples, and they could also do with comments
pointing out that we're assuming we don't need pg_detoast_datum_packed.

Tom Lane ec3daeec31 Fix generate_partitionwise_join_paths() to tolerate failure.
We might fail to generate a partitionwise join, because
reparameterize_path_by_child() does not support all path types.
This should not be a hard failure condition: we should just fall back
to a non-partitioned join.  However, generate_partitionwise_join_paths
did not consider this possibility and would emit the (misleading)
error "could not devise a query plan for the given query" if we'd
failed to make any paths for a child join.  Fix it to give up on
partitionwise joining if so.  (The accepted technique for giving up
appears to be to set rel->nparts = 0, which I find pretty bizarre,
but there you have it.)

I have not added a test case because there'd be little point:
any omissions of this sort that we identify would soon get fixed
by extending reparameterize_path_by_child(), so the test would stop
proving anything.  However, right now there is a known test case based
on failure to cover MaterialPath, and with that I've found that this
is broken in all supported versions.  Hence, patch all the way back.

Original report and patch by me; thanks to Richard Guo for
identifying a test case that works against committed versions.

Dean Rasheed 2c7ed9f752 Fix DEFAULT handling for multi-row INSERT rules.
When updating a relation with a rule whose action performed an INSERT
from a multi-row VALUES list, the rewriter might skip processing the
VALUES list, and therefore fail to replace any DEFAULTs in it. This
would lead to an "unrecognized node type" error.

The reason was that RewriteQuery() assumed that a query doing an
INSERT from a multi-row VALUES list would necessarily only have one
item in its fromlist, pointing to the VALUES RTE to read from. That
assumption is correct for the original query, but not for product
queries produced for rule actions. In such cases, there may be
multiple items in the fromlist, possibly including multiple VALUES
RTEs.

What is required instead is for RewriteQuery() to skip any RTEs from
the product query's originating query, which might include one or more
already-processed VALUES RTEs. What's left should then include at most
one VALUES RTE (from the rule action) to be processed.

Patch by me. Thanks to Tom Lane for reviewing.

changing relkind anymore, we can't add a test that that's handled correctly.

For 15, fix the problem by not maintaining the association with the old pgstat
entry when the relkind changes during a relcache invalidation processing. In
that case the pgstat entry needs to be unlinked first, to avoid
PgStat_TableStatus->relation getting out of sync. Also add a test reproducing
the issues.

No known problem exists in 11-14, so just add the test there.

Tom Lane 303b26c1bb Fix psql's \sf and \ef for new-style SQL functions.
Some options of these commands need to be able to identify the start
of the function body within the output of pg_get_functiondef().
It used to be that that always began with "AS", but since the
introduction of new-style SQL functions, it might also start with
"BEGIN" or "RETURN".  Fix that on the psql side, and add some

Tom Lane de0ff6088e Fix under-parenthesized display of AT TIME ZONE constructs.
In commit 40c24bfef, I forgot to use get_rule_expr_paren() for the
arguments of AT TIME ZONE, resulting in possibly not printing parens
for expressions that need it.  But get_rule_expr_paren() wouldn't have
gotten it right anyway, because isSimpleNode() hadn't been taught that
COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX parent nodes don't guarantee sufficient parentheses.
Improve all that.  Also use this methodology for F_IS_NORMALIZED, so
that we don't print useless parens for that.

In passing, remove a comment that was obsoleted later.

Per report from Duncan Sands.  Back-patch to v14 where this code

Tom Lane 06998eab16 Improve heuristics for compressing the KnownAssignedXids array.
Previously, we'd compress only when the active range of array entries
reached Max(4 * PROCARRAY_MAXPROCS, 2 * pArray->numKnownAssignedXids).
If max_connections is large, the first term could result in not
compressing for a long time, resulting in much wastage of cycles in
hot-standby backends scanning the array to take snapshots.  Get rid
of that term, and just bound it to 2 * pArray->numKnownAssignedXids.

That however creates the opposite risk, that we might spend too much
effort compressing.  Hence, consider compressing only once every 128
commit records.  (This frequency was chosen by benchmarking.  While
we only tried one benchmark scenario, the results seem stable over
a fairly wide range of frequencies.)

Also, force compression when processing RecoveryInfo WAL records
(which should be infrequent); the old code could perform compression
then, but would do so only after the same array-range check as for
the transaction-commit path.

Also, opportunistically run compression if the startup process is about
to wait for WAL, though not oftener than once a second.  This should
prevent cases where we waste lots of time by leaving the array
not-compressed for long intervals due to low WAL traffic.

Lastly, add a simple check to keep us from uselessly compressing
when the array storage is already compact.

Back-patch, as the performance problem is worse in pre-v14 branches
than in HEAD.

Andres Freund.

Tom Lane 7715a3c244 Prevent clobbering of utility statements in SQL function caches.
This is an oversight in commit 7c337b6b5: I apparently didn't think
about the possibility of a SQL function being executed multiple
times within a query.  In that case, functions.c's primitive caching
mechanism allows the same utility parse tree to be presented for
execution more than once.  We have to tell ProcessUtility to make
a working copy of the parse tree, or bad things happen.

Normally I'd add a regression test, but I think the reported crasher
is dependent on some rather random implementation choices that are
nowhere near functions.c, so its usefulness as a long-lived test
feels questionable.  In any case, this fix is clearly correct given
the design choices of 7c337b6b5.

Per bug #17702 from Xin Wen.  Thanks to Daniel Gustafsson for
analysis.  Back-patch to v14 where the faulty commit came in

utility parse trees lay elsewhere).

Tom Lane 0224646bee Remove bogus Assert and dead code in remove_useless_results_recurse().
The JOIN_SEMI case Assert'ed that there are no PlaceHolderVars that
need to be evaluated at the semijoin's RHS, which is wrong because
there could be some in the semijoin's qual condition.  However, there
could not be any references further up than that, and within the qual
there is not any way that such a PHV could have gone to null yet, so
we don't really need the PHV and there is no need to avoid making the
RHS-removal optimization.  The upshot is that there's no actual bug
in production code, and we ought to just remove this misguided Assert.

While we're here, also drop the JOIN_RIGHT case, which is dead code
because reduce_outer_joins() already got rid of JOIN_RIGHT.

Etsuro Fujita e52245228e Fix handling of pending inserts in nodeModifyTable.c.
Commit b663a4136, which allowed FDWs to INSERT rows in bulk, added to
nodeModifyTable.c code to flush pending inserts to the foreign-table
result relation(s) before completing processing of the ModifyTable node,
but the code failed to take into account the case where the INSERT query
has modifying CTEs, leading to incorrect results.

Also, that commit failed to flush pending inserts before firing BEFORE
ROW triggers so that rows are visible to such triggers.

In that commit we scanned through EState's
es_tuple_routing_result_relations or es_opened_result_relations list to
find the foreign-table result relations to which pending inserts are
flushed, but that would be inefficient in some cases.  So to fix, 1) add
a List member to EState to record the insert-pending result relations,
and 2) modify nodeModifyTable.c so that it adds the foreign-table result
relation to the list in ExecInsert() if appropriate, and flushes pending
inserts properly using the list where needed.

While here, fix a copy-and-pasteo in a comment in ExecBatchInsert(),
which was added by that commit.

Back-patch to v14 where that commit appeared.

Amit Kapila 9f2cc1a73c Fix uninitialized access to InitialRunningXacts during decoding.
In commit 272248a0c, we introduced an InitialRunningXacts array to
remember transactions and subtransactions that were running when the
xl_running_xacts record that we decoded was written. This array was
allocated in the snapshot builder memory context after we restore
serialized snapshot but we forgot to reset the array while freeing the
builder memory context. So, the next time when we start decoding in the
same session where we don't restore any serialized snapshot, we ended up
using the uninitialized array and that can lead to unpredictable behavior.

This problem doesn't exist in HEAD as instead of using
InitialRunningXacts, we added the list of transaction IDs and
sub-transaction IDs, that have modified catalogs and are running during
snapshot serialization, to the serialized snapshot (see commit 7f13ac8123).

Tom Lane bd06fe4dee YA attempt at taming worst-case behavior of get_actual_variable_range.
We've made multiple attempts at preventing get_actual_variable_range
from taking an unreasonable amount of time (3ca930fc3, fccebe421).
But there's still an issue for the very first planning attempt after
deletion of a large number of extremal-valued tuples.  While that
planning attempt will set "killed" bits on the tuples it visits and
thereby reduce effort for next time, there's still a lot of work it
has to do to visit the heap and then set those bits.  It's (usually?)
not worth it to do that much work at plan time to have a slightly
better estimate, especially in a context like this where the table
contents are known to be mutating rapidly.

Therefore, let's bound the amount of work to be done by giving up
after we've visited 100 heap pages.  Giving up just means we'll
fall back on the extremal value recorded in pg_statistic, so it
shouldn't mean that planner estimates suddenly become worthless.

Note that this means we'll still gradually whittle down the problem
by setting a few more index "killed" bits in each planning attempt;
so eventually we'll reach a good state (barring further deletions),
even in the absence of VACUUM.

Simon Riggs, per a complaint from Jakub Wartak (with cosmetic
adjustments by me).  Back-patch to all supported branches.
