Tom Lane 00c5e511b9 Minor code review for parse_phrase_operator().
Fix its header comment, which described the old behavior of the <N>
phrase distance operator; we missed updating that in commit 028350f61.
Also, reset errno before strtol() call, to defend against the possibility
that it was already ERANGE at entry.  (The lack of complaints says that
it generally isn't, but this is at least a latent bug.)  Very minor
stylistic improvements as well.

Victor Drobny noted the obsolete comment, I noted the errno issue.
Back-patch to 9.6 where this code was added, just in case the errno
issue is a live bug in some cases.

Tom Lane ddb5fdc068 Further hacking on ICU collation creation and usage.
pg_import_system_collations() refused to create any ICU collations if
the current database's encoding didn't support ICU.  This is wrongheaded:
initdb must initialize pg_collation in an encoding-independent way
since it might be used in other databases with different encodings.
The reason for the restriction seems to be that get_icu_locale_comment()
used icu_from_uchar() to convert the UChar-format display name, and that
unsurprisingly doesn't know what to do in unsupported encodings.
But by the same token that the initial catalog contents must be
encoding-independent, we can't allow non-ASCII characters in the comment
strings.  So we don't really need icu_from_uchar() here: just check for
Unicode codes outside the ASCII range, and if there are none, the format
conversion is trivial.  If there are some, we can simply not install the
comment.  (In my testing, this affects only Norwegian Bokmål, which has
given us trouble before.)

For paranoia's sake, also check for non-ASCII characters in ICU locale
names, and skip such locales, as we do for libc locales.  I don't
currently have a reason to believe that this will ever reject anything,
but then again the libc maintainers should have known better too.

With just the import changes, ICU collations can be found in pg_collation
in databases with unsupported encodings.  This resulted in more or less
clean failures at runtime, but that's not how things act for unsupported
encodings with libc collations.  Make it work the same as our traditional
behavior for libc collations by having collation lookup take into account
whether is_encoding_supported_by_icu().

Adjust documentation to match.  Also, expand Table 23.1 to show which
encodings are supported by ICU.

catversion bump because of likely change in pg_collation/pg_description
initial contents in ICU-enabled builds.

Tom Lane d1fcc62298 Fix incorrect buffer-length argument to uloc_getDisplayName().
The maxResultSize argument of uloc_getDisplayName is the number of
UChars in the output buffer, not the number of bytes.  In principle
this could result in a stack smash, although at least in my Fedora 25
install there are no ICU locales with display names long enough to
overrun the buffer.  But it's easily proven to be wrong by reducing
the length of displayname to around 20, whereupon a stack smash
does happen.

(This is a rather scary bug, because the same mistake could easily
have been made in other places; but in a quick code search looking
at uses of UChar I could not find any other instances.)

Tom Lane 0b13b2a771 Rethink behavior of pg_import_system_collations().
Marco Atzeri reported that initdb would fail if "locale -a" reported
the same locale name more than once.  All previous versions of Postgres
implicitly de-duplicated the results of "locale -a", but the rewrite
to move the collation import logic into C had lost that property.
It had also lost the property that locale names matching built-in
collation names were silently ignored.

The simplest way to fix this is to make initdb run the function in
if-not-exists mode, which means that there's no real use-case for
non if-not-exists mode; we might as well just drop the boolean argument
and simplify the function's definition to be "add any collations not
already known".  This change also gets rid of some odd corner cases
caused by the fact that aliases were added in if-not-exists mode even
if the function argument said otherwise.

While at it, adjust the behavior so that pg_import_system_collations()
doesn't spew "collation foo already exists, skipping" messages during a
re-run; that's completely unhelpful, especially since there are often
hundreds of them.  And make it return a count of the number of collations
it did add, which seems like it might be helpful.

Also, re-integrate the previous coding's property that it would make a
deterministic selection of which alias to use if there were conflicting
possibilities.  This would only come into play if "locale -a" reports
multiple equivalent locale names, say "de_DE.utf8" and "de_DE.UTF-8",
but that hardly seems out of the question.

In passing, fix incorrect behavior in pg_import_system_collations()'s
ICU code path: it neglected CommandCounterIncrement, which would result
in failures if ICU returns duplicate names, and it would try to create
comments even if a new collation hadn't been created.

Also, reorder operations in initdb so that the 'ucs_basic' collation
is created before calling pg_import_system_collations() not after.
This prevents a failure if "locale -a" were to report a locale named
that.  There's no reason to think that that ever happens in the wild,
but the old coding would have survived it, so let's be equally robust.

Simon Riggs 9ea3c64124 Improve replication lag interpolation after idle period
After sitting idle and fully replayed for a while and then encountering
a new burst of WAL activity, we interpolate between an ancient sample and the

of lag after receiving first new reply from standby, which might sometimes
be a large spike.

Correct this by resetting last_read time and handle that new case.

Tom Lane b6159202c9 Fix memory leakage in ICU encoding conversion, and other code review.
Callers of icu_to_uchar() neglected to pfree the result string when done
with it.  This results in catastrophic memory leaks in varstr_cmp(),
because of our prevailing assumption that btree comparison functions don't
leak memory.  For safety, make all the call sites clean up leaks, though
I suspect that we could get away without it in formatting.c.  I audited
callers of icu_from_uchar() as well, but found no places that seemed to
have a comparable issue.

Add function API specifications for icu_to_uchar() and icu_from_uchar();
the lack of any thought-through specification is perhaps not unrelated
to the existence of this bug in the first place.  Fix icu_to_uchar()
to guarantee a nul-terminated result; although no existing caller appears
to care, the fact that it would have been nul-terminated except in
extreme corner cases seems ideally designed to bite someone on the rear
someday.  Fix ucnv_fromUChars() destCapacity argument --- in the worst
case, that could perhaps have led to a non-nul-terminated result, too.
Fix icu_from_uchar() to have a more reasonable definition of the function
result --- no callers are actually paying attention, so this isn't a live
bug, but it's certainly sloppily designed.  Const-ify icu_from_uchar()'s
input string for consistency.

That is not the end of what needs to be done to these functions, but
it's as much as I have the patience for right now.

Andres Freund fb886c153b Fix possibility of creating a "phantom" segment after promotion.
When promoting a standby just after a XLOG_SWITCH record was replayed,
and next segment(s) are already are locally available (via walsender,
restore_command + trigger/recovery target), that segment could
accidentally be recycled onto the past of the new timeline.  Later
checkpointer would create a .ready file for it, assuming there was an
error during creation, and it would get archived.  That causes trouble
if another standby is later brought up from a basebackup from before
the timeline creation, because it would try to read the
segment, because XLogFileReadAnyTLI just tries all possible timelines,
which doesn't have valid contents.  Thus replay would fail.

The problem, if already occurred, can be fixed by removing the segment
and/or having restore_command filter it out.

The reason for the creation of such "phantom" segments was, that after
an XLOG_SWITCH record the EndOfLog variable points to the beginning of
the next segment, and RemoveXlogFile() used XLByteToPrevSeg().
Normally RemoveXlogFile() doing so is harmless, because the last
segment will still exist preventing InstallXLogFileSegment() from
causing harm, but just after promotion there's no previous segment on
the new timeline.

Fix that by using XLByteToSeg() instead of XLByteToPrevSeg().

Tom Lane 382ceffdf7 Phase 3 of pgindent updates.
Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.

By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis.  However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent.  That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.

This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane c7b8998ebb Phase 2 of pgindent updates.
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.

Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code.  The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there.  BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs.  So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before.  This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.

Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane e3860ffa4d Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:

* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
  sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
  well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
  with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
  than the expected column 33.

On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list.  This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.

There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses.  I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

Tom Lane a69dfe5f40 Don't downcase entries within shared_preload_libraries et al.
load_libraries(), which processes the various xxx_preload_libraries GUCs,
was parsing them using SplitIdentifierString() which isn't really
appropriate for values that could be path names: it downcases unquoted
text, and it doesn't allow embedded whitespace unless quoted.
Use SplitDirectoriesString() instead.  That also allows us to simplify
load_libraries() a bit, since canonicalize_path() is now done for it.

While this definitely seems like a bug fix, it has the potential to
break configuration settings that accidentally worked before because
of the downcasing behavior.  Also, there's an easy workaround for the
bug, namely to double-quote troublesome text.  Hence, no back-patch.

Peter Eisentraut a2141c42f9 Tweak publication fetching in psql
Viewing a table with \d in psql also shows the publications at table is
in.  If a publication is concurrently dropped, this shows an error,
because the view pg_publication_tables internally uses
pg_get_publication_tables(), which uses a catalog snapshot.  This can be
particularly annoying if a for-all-tables publication is concurrently
dropped.

To avoid that, write the query in psql differently.  Expose the function
pg_relation_is_publishable() to SQL and write the query using that.
That still has a risk of being affected by concurrent catalog changes,
but in this case it would be a table drop that causes problems, and then
the psql \d command wouldn't be interesting anymore anyway.

Tom Lane d8e6b84bd2 Avoid regressions in foreign-key-based selectivity estimates.
David Rowley found that the "use the smallest per-column selectivity"
heuristic applied in some cases by get_foreign_key_join_selectivity()
was badly off if the FK columns are independent, producing estimates
much worse than we got before that code was added in 9.6.

One case where that heuristic was used was for LEFT and FULL outer joins
with the referenced rel on the outside of the join.  But we should not
really need to special-case those here.  eqjoinsel() never has had such a
special case; the correction is applied by calc_joinrel_size_estimate()
instead.  Let's just estimate such cases like inner joins and rely on that
later adjustment.  (I think there was something of a thinko here, in that
the comments seem to be thinking about the selectivity as defined for
semi/anti joins; but that shouldn't apply to left/full joins.)  Add a
regression test exercising such a case to show that this is sane in
at least some cases.

The other case where we used that heuristic was for SEMI/ANTI outer joins,
either if the referenced rel was on the outside, or if it was on the inside
but was part of a join within the RHS.  In either case, the FK doesn't give
us a lot of traction towards estimating the selectivity.  To ensure that
we don't have regressions from what happened before 9.6, let's punt by
ignoring the FK in such cases and applying the traditional selectivity
calculation.  (We might be able to improve on that later, but for now
I just want to be sure it's not worse than 9.5.)

Report and patch by David Rowley, simplified a bit by me.  Back-patch
to 9.6 where this code was added.

Tom Lane a3bed62d44 Fix low-probability leaks of PGresult objects in the backend.
We had three occurrences of essentially the same coding pattern
wherein we tried to retrieve a query result from a libpq connection
without blocking.  In the case where PQconsumeInput failed (typically
indicating a lost connection), all three loops simply gave up and
returned, forgetting to clear any previously-collected PGresult
object.  Since those are malloc'd not palloc'd, the oversight results
in a process-lifespan memory leak.

One instance, in libpqwalreceiver, is of little significance because
the walreceiver process would just quit anyway if its connection fails.
But we might as well fix it.

The other two instances, in postgres_fdw, are somewhat more worrisome
because at least in principle the scenario could be repeated, allowing
the amount of memory leaked to build up to something worth worrying
about.  Moreover, in these cases the loops contain CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS
calls, as well as other calls that could potentially elog(ERROR),
providing another way to exit without having cleared the PGresult.
Here we need to add PG_TRY logic similar to what exists in quite a
few other places in postgres_fdw.

Coverity noted the libpqwalreceiver bug; I found the other two cases
by checking all calls of PQconsumeInput.

Back-patch to all supported versions as appropriate (9.2 lacks
postgres_fdw, so this is really quite unexciting for that branch).

Andres Freund 6c2003f8a1 Don't force-assign transaction id when exporting a snapshot.
Previously we required every exported transaction to have an xid
assigned. That was used to check that the exporting transaction is
still running, which in turn is needed to guarantee that that
necessary rows haven't been removed in between exporting and importing
the snapshot.

The exported xid caused unnecessary problems with logical decoding,
because slot creation has to wait for all concurrent xid to finish,
which in turn serializes concurrent slot creation.   It also
prohibited snapshots to be exported on hot-standby replicas.

Instead export the virtual transactionid, which avoids the unnecessary
serialization and the inability to export snapshots on standbys. This
changes the file name of the exported snapshot, but since we never
documented what that one means, that seems ok.

expression_returns_set() used to short-circuit its recursion upon
seeing certain node types, such as DistinctExpr, that it knew the
executor did not support set-valued arguments for.  That was never
inherent, though, just a reflection of laziness in execQual.c.
With the new implementation of SRFs there is no reason to think
that any scalar-valued expression node could not have a set-valued
subexpression, except for AggRefs and WindowFuncs where we know there
is a parser check rejecting it.  And indeed, the shortcut causes
unexpected failures for cases such as a SRF underneath DistinctExpr,
because the planner stops looking for SRFs too soon.

Tom Lane 0436f6bde8 Disallow set-returning functions inside CASE or COALESCE.
When we reimplemented SRFs in commit 69f4b9c85, our initial choice was
to allow the behavior to vary from historical practice in cases where a
SRF call appeared within a conditional-execution construct (currently,
only CASE or COALESCE).  But that was controversial to begin with, and
subsequent discussion has resulted in a consensus that it's better to
throw an error instead of executing the query differently from before,
so long as we can provide a reasonably clear error message and a way to
rewrite the query.

Hence, add a parser mechanism to allow detection of such cases during
parse analysis.  The mechanism just requires storing, in the ParseState,
a pointer to the set-returning FuncExpr or OpExpr most recently emitted
by parse analysis.  Then the parsing functions for CASE and COALESCE can
detect the presence of a SRF in their arguments by noting whether this
pointer changes while analyzing their arguments.  Furthermore, if it does,
it provides a suitable error cursor location for the complaint.  (This
means that if there's more than one SRF in the arguments, the error will
point at the last one to be analyzed not the first.  While connoisseurs of
parsing behavior might find that odd, it's unlikely the average user would
ever notice.)

While at it, we can also provide more specific error messages than before
about some pre-existing restrictions, such as no-SRFs-within-aggregates.
Also, reject at parse time cases where a NULLIF or IS DISTINCT FROM
construct would need to return a set.  We've never supported that, but the
restriction is depended on in more subtle ways now, so it seems wise to
detect it at the start.

Also, provide some documentation about how to rewrite a SRF-within-CASE
query using a custom wrapper SRF.

It turns out that the information_schema.user_mapping_options view
contained an instance of exactly the behavior we're now forbidding; but
rewriting it makes it more clear and safer too.

initdb forced because of user_mapping_options change.

Patch by me, with error message suggestions from Alvaro Herrera and

Tom Lane 7332c3cbb3 Assert that we don't invent relfilenodes or type OIDs in binary upgrade.
During pg_upgrade's restore run, all relfilenode choices should be
overridden by commands in the dump script.  If we ever find ourselves
choosing a relfilenode in the ordinary way, someone blew it.  Likewise for
pg_type OIDs.  Since pg_upgrade might well succeed anyway, if there happens
not to be a conflict during the regression test run, we need assertions
here to keep us on the straight and narrow.

We might someday be able to remove the assertion in GetNewRelFileNode,
if pg_upgrade is rewritten to remove its assumption that old and new
relfilenodes always match.  But it's hard to see how to get rid of the
pg_type OID constraint, since those OIDs are embedded in user tables
in some cases.

Back-patch as far as 9.5, because of the risk of back-patches breaking
something here even if it works in HEAD.  I'd prefer to go back further,
but 9.4 fails both assertions due to get_rel_infos()'s use of a temporary
table.  We can't use the later-branch solution of a CTE for compatibility
reasons (cf commit 5d16332e9), and it doesn't seem worth inventing some
other way to do the query.  (I did check, by dint of changing the Asserts
to elog(WARNING), that there are no other cases of unwanted OID assignments
during 9.4's regression test run.)

Tom Lane 51893985d3 Handle unqualified SEQUENCE NAME options properly in parse_utilcmd.c.
generateSerialExtraStmts() was sloppy about handling the case where
SEQUENCE NAME is given with a not-schema-qualified name.  It was generating
a CreateSeqStmt with an unqualified sequence name, and an AlterSeqStmt
whose "owned_by" DefElem contained a T_String Value with a null string
pointer in the schema-name position.  The generated nextval() argument was
also underqualified.  This accidentally failed to fail at runtime, but only
so long as the current default creation namespace at runtime is the right
namespace.  That's bogus; the parse-time transformation is supposed to be
inserting the right schema name in all cases, so as to avoid any possible
skew in that selection.  I'm not sure this could fail in pg_dump's usage,
but it's still wrong; we have had real bugs in this area before adopting
the policy that parse_utilcmd.c should generate only fully-qualified
auxiliary commands.  A slightly lesser problem, which is what led me to
notice this in the first place, is that pprint() dumped core on the
AlterSeqStmt because of the bogus T_String.

Most of the improvements were in the new SCRAM code:

* In SCRAM protocol violation messages, use errdetail to provide the

* If pg_backend_random() fails, throw an ERROR rather than just LOG. We
  shouldn't continue authentication if we can't generate a random nonce.

* Use ereport() rather than elog() for the "invalid SCRAM verifier"
  messages. They shouldn't happen, if everything works, but it's not
  inconceivable that someone would have invalid scram verifiers in
  pg_authid, e.g. if a broken client application was used to generate the
  verifier.

But this change applied to old code:

* Use ERROR rather than COMMERROR for protocol violation errors. There's
  no reason to not tell the client what they did wrong. The client might be
  confused already, so that it cannot read and display the error correctly,
  but let's at least try. In the "invalid password packet size" case, we
  used to actually continue with authentication anyway, but that is now a

Robert Haas 15ce775faa Prevent BEFORE triggers from violating partitioning constraints.
Since tuple-routing implicitly checks the partitioning constraints
at least for the levels of the partitioning hierarchy it traverses,
there's normally no need to revalidate the partitioning constraint
after performing tuple routing.  However, if there's a BEFORE trigger
on the target partition, it could modify the tuple, causing the
partitioning constraint to be violated.  Catch that case.

Also, instead of checking the root table's partition constraint after
tuple-routing, check it beforehand.  Otherwise, the rules for when
the partitioning constraint gets checked get too complicated, because
you sometimes have to check part of the constraint but not all of it.
This effectively reverts commit 39162b2030
in favor of a different approach altogether.

Robert Haas 2186b608b3 Clean up partcollation handling for OID 0.
Consistent with what we do for indexes, we shouldn't try to record
dependencies on collation OID 0 or the default collation OID (which
is pinned).  Also, the fact that indcollation and partcollation can
contain zero OIDs when the data type is not collatable should be
documented.

This allows to cancel commands run over replication connections. While
it might have some use before v10, it has become important now that
normal SQL commands are allowed in database connected walsender
connections.

Andres Freund 6e1dd2773e Unify SIGHUP handling between normal and walsender backends.
Because walsender and normal backends share the same main loop it's
problematic to have two different flag variables, set in signal
handlers, indicating a pending configuration reload.  Only certain
walsender commands reach code paths checking for the
variable (START_[LOGICAL_]REPLICATION, CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT
... LOGICAL, notably not base backups).

This is a bug present since the introduction of walsender, but has
gotten worse in releases since then which allow walsender to do more.

A later patch, not slated for v10, will similarly unify SIGHUP
handling in other types of processes as well.

Andres Freund c6c3334364 Prevent possibility of panics during shutdown checkpoint.
When the checkpointer writes the shutdown checkpoint, it checks
afterwards whether any WAL has been written since it started and
throws a PANIC if so.  At that point, only walsenders are still
active, so one might think this could not happen, but walsenders can
also generate WAL, for instance in BASE_BACKUP and logical decoding
related commands (e.g. via hint bits).  So they can trigger this panic
if such a command is run while the shutdown checkpoint is being
written.

To fix this, divide the walsender shutdown into two phases.  First,
checkpointer, itself triggered by postmaster, sends a
PROCSIG_WALSND_INIT_STOPPING signal to all walsenders.  If the backend
is idle or runs an SQL query this causes the backend to shutdown, if
logical replication is in progress all existing WAL records are
processed followed by a shutdown.  Otherwise this causes the walsender
to switch to the "stopping" state. In this state, the walsender will
reject any further replication commands. The checkpointer begins the
shutdown checkpoint once all walsenders are confirmed as
stopping. When the shutdown checkpoint finishes, the postmaster sends
us SIGUSR2. This instructs walsender to send any outstanding WAL,
including the shutdown checkpoint record, wait for it to be replicated
to the standby, and then exit.

The non-participation in procsignal was a problem for both changes in

This commit thus replaces the previous WalSndXLogSendHandler with

Tom Lane 3e60c6f723 Code review for shm_toc.h/.c.
Declare the toc_nentry field as uint32 not Size.  Since shm_toc_lookup()
reads the field without any lock, it has to be atomically readable, and
we do not assume that for fields wider than 32 bits.  Performance would
be impossibly bad for entry counts approaching 2^32 anyway, so there is
no need to try to preserve maximum width here.

This is probably an academic issue, because even if reading int64 isn't
atomic, the high order half would never change in practice.  Still, it's
a coding rule violation, so let's fix it.

Adjust some other not-terribly-well-chosen data types too, and copy-edit
some comments.  Make shm_toc_attach's Asserts consistent with
shm_toc_create's.

None of this looks to be a live bug, so no need for back-patch.

Tom Lane d466335064 Don't be so trusting that shm_toc_lookup() will always succeed.
Given the possibility of race conditions and so on, it seems entirely
unsafe to just assume that shm_toc_lookup() always finds the key it's
looking for --- but that was exactly what all but one call site were
doing.  To fix, add a "bool noError" argument, similarly to what we
have in many other functions, and throw an error on an unexpected
lookup failure.  Remove now-redundant Asserts that a rather random
subset of call sites had.

I doubt this will throw any light on buildfarm member lorikeet's
recent failures, because if an unnoticed lookup failure were involved,
you'd kind of expect a null-pointer-dereference crash rather than the
observed symptom.  But you never know ... and this is better coding
practice even if it never catches anything.

Tom Lane e7941a9766 Replace over-optimistic Assert in partitioning code with a runtime test.
get_partition_parent felt that it could simply Assert that systable_getnext
found a tuple.  This is unlike any other caller of that function, and it's
unsafe IMO --- in fact, the reason I noticed it was that the Assert failed.
(OK, I was working with known-inconsistent catalog contents, but I wasn't
expecting the DB to fall over quite that violently.  The behavior in a
non-assert-enabled build wouldn't be very nice, either.)  Fix it to do what
other callers do, namely an actual runtime-test-and-elog.

Also, standardize the wording of elog messages that are complaining about
unexpected failure of systable_getnext.  90% of them say "could not find
tuple for <object>", so make the remainder do likewise.  Many of the
holdouts were using the phrasing "cache lookup failed", which is outright
misleading since no catcache search is involved.

I'd always assumed that backend/optimizer/geqo/'s remarkably poor

of the problem is that there's a bunch of code that is physically
unreachable (because the calls to it are #ifdef'd out in geqo_main.c)
but is being built anyway.  Making the called code have #if guards
similar to the calling code saves a couple of kilobytes of executable
size and should make the coverage numbers more reflective of reality.

It's arguable that we should just delete all the unused recombination

Tom Lane 512c7356b6 Fix <> and pattern-NOT-match estimators to handle nulls correctly.
These estimators returned 1 minus the corresponding equality/match
estimate, which is incorrect: we need to subtract off the fraction
of nulls in the column, since those are neither equal nor not equal
to the comparison value.  The error only becomes obvious if the
nullfrac is large, but it could be very bad in a mostly-nulls
column, as reported in bug #14676 from Marko Tiikkaja.

To fix the <> case, refactor eqsel() and neqsel() to call a common
support routine, which can be made to account for nullfrac correctly.
The pattern-match cases were already factored that way, and it was
simply an oversight that patternsel() wasn't subtracting off nullfrac.

neqjoinsel() has a similar problem, but since we're elsewhere discussing
changing its behavior entirely, I left it alone for now.

This is a very longstanding bug, but I'm hesitant to back-patch a fix for
it.  Given the lack of prior complaints, such cases must not come up often,
so it's probably not worth the risk of destabilizing plans in stable
branches.

Tom Lane 23886581b5 Fix old corner-case logic error in final_cost_nestloop().
When costing a nestloop with stop-at-first-inner-match semantics, and a
non-indexscan inner path, final_cost_nestloop() wants to charge the full
scan cost of the inner rel at least once, with additional scans charged
at inner_rescan_run_cost which might be less.  However the logic for
doing this effectively assumed that outer_matched_rows is at least 1.
If it's zero, which is not unlikely for a small outer rel, we ended up
charging inner_run_cost plus N times inner_rescan_run_cost, as much as
double the correct charge for an outer rel with only one row that
we're betting won't be matched.  (Unless the inner rel is materialized,
in which case it has very small inner_rescan_run_cost and the cost
is not so far off what it should have been.)

The upshot of this was that the planner had a tendency to select plans
that failed to make effective use of the stop-at-first-inner-match
semantics, and that might have Materialize nodes in them even when the
predicted number of executions of the Materialize subplan was only 1.
This was not so obvious before commit 9c7f5229a, because the case only
arose in connection with semi/anti joins where there's not freedom to
reverse the join order.  But with the addition of unique-inner joins,
it could result in some fairly bad planning choices, as reported by
Teodor Sigaev.  Indeed, some of the test cases added by that commit
have plans that look dubious on closer inspection, and are changed
by this patch.

Fix the logic to ensure that we don't charge for too many inner scans.
I chose to adjust it so that the full-freight scan cost is associated
with an unmatched outer row if possible, not a matched one, since that
seems like a better model of what would happen at runtime.

This is a longstanding bug, but given the lesser impact in back branches,
and the lack of field complaints, I won't risk a back-patch.

Previously the changes to the "data" part of the sequence, i.e. the

odd behaviour if a schema change is rolled back, with the potential
that out-of-bound sequence values can be returned.

To avoid the issue create a new relfilenode fork whenever ALTER
SEQUENCE is executed, similar to how TRUNCATE ... RESTART IDENTITY
already is already handled.

This commit also makes ALTER SEQUENCE RESTART transactional, as it

not transactional, but DDL is, which seems to make sense.

Avoid trashing the input PartitionBoundSpec; while that might be safe for
current callers, it's certainly trouble waiting to happen.  In the same
vein, make sure that all of the result data structure is freshly palloc'd,
rather than some of it being pointers into the input data structures
(which we don't know the lifespans of).

Simplify the logic for tacking on IS NULL or IS NOT NULL conditions some
more; commit 85c2b9a15 left a lot on the table there.  And rearrange the
construction of the nodes into (what seems to me) a more logical order.

In passing, make sure that get_qual_for_range() also returns a freshly
palloc'd structure, since there's no value in having that guarantee for
only one kind of partitioning.  And improve some comments there.

a coercion request.  This is the cause of bug #14666 from Tian Bing: there
is an int4 to money cast, but it's only stable not immutable (because of
dependence on lc_monetary), resulting in a FuncExpr that the code was
miserably unequipped to deal with, or indeed even to notice that it was
failing to deal with.  Add test cases around this coercion behavior.

In view of the above, sprinkle the code liberally with castNode() macros,
in hope of catching the next such bug a bit sooner.  Also, change some
functions that were randomly declared to take Node* to take more specific
pointer types.  And change some struct fields that were declared Node*
but could be given more specific types, allowing removal of assorted
explicit casts.

Place PARTITION_MAX_KEYS check a bit closer to the code it's protecting.
Likewise check only-one-key-for-list-partitioning restriction in a less
random place.

Avoid not-per-project-style usages like !strcmp(...).

Fix assorted failures to avoid scribbling on the input of parse
transformation.  I'm not sure how necessary this is, but it's entirely
silly for these functions to be expending cycles to avoid that and not
getting it right.

Add guards against partitioning on system columns.

Put backend/nodes/ support code into an order that matches handling
of these node types elsewhere.

Annotate the fact that somebody added location fields to PartitionBoundSpec
and PartitionRangeDatum but forgot to handle them in
outfuncs.c/readfuncs.c.  This is fairly harmless for production purposes
(since readfuncs.c would just substitute -1 anyway) but it's still bogus.
It's not worth forcing a post-beta1 initdb just to fix this, but if we
have another reason to force initdb before 10.0, we should go back and
clean this up.

Contrariwise, somebody added location fields to PartitionElem and
PartitionSpec but forgot to teach exprLocation() about them.

Consolidate duplicative code in transformPartitionBound().

Improve a couple of error messages.

Improve assorted commentary.

Peter Eisentraut 073ce405d6 Fix table syncing with different column order
Logical replication supports replicating between tables with different
column order.  But this failed for the initial table sync because of a
logic error in how the column list for the internal COPY command was
composed.  Fix that and also add a test.

Also fix a minor omission in the column name mapping cache.  When
creating the mapping list, it would not skip locally dropped columns.
So if a remote column had the same name as a locally dropped
column (...pg.dropped...), then the expected error would not occur.

Tom Lane 9ae2661fe1 Tighten checks for whitespace in functions that parse identifiers etc.
This patch replaces isspace() calls with scanner_isspace() in functions
that are likely to be presented with non-ASCII input.  isspace() has
the small advantage that it will correctly recognize no-break space
in single-byte encodings (such as LATIN1); but it cannot work successfully
for any multibyte character, and depending on platform it might return
false positive results for some fragments of multibyte characters.  That's
disastrous for functions that are trying to discard whitespace between
valid strings, as noted in bug #14662 from Justin Muise.  Even treating
no-break space as whitespace is pretty questionable for the usages touched
here, because the core scanner would think it is an identifier character.

Affected functions are parse_ident(), parseNameAndArgTypes (underlying
regprocedurein() and siblings), SplitIdentifierString (used for parsing
GUCs and options that are qualified names or lists of names), and
SplitDirectoriesString (used for parsing GUCs that are lists of
directories).

All the functions adjusted here are parsing SQL identifiers and similar
constructs, so it's reasonable to insist that their definition of
whitespace match the core scanner.  So we can hope that this won't cause
many backwards-compatibility problems.  I've left alone isspace() calls
in places that aren't really expecting any non-ASCII input characters,
such as float8in().

Tom Lane d761fe2182 Fix precision and rounding issues in money multiplication and division.
The cash_div_intX functions applied rint() to the result of the division.
That's not merely useless (because the result is already an integer) but
it causes precision loss for values larger than 2^52 or so, because of
the forced conversion to float8.

On the other hand, the cash_mul_fltX functions neglected to apply rint() to
their multiplication results, thus possibly causing off-by-one outputs.

Per C standard, arithmetic between any integral value and a float value is
performed in float format.  Thus, cash_mul_flt4 and cash_div_flt4 produced
answers good to only about six digits, even when the float value is exact.
We can improve matters noticeably by widening the float inputs to double.
(It's tempting to consider using "long double" arithmetic if available,
but that's probably too much of a stretch for a back-patched fix.)

Also, document that cash_div_intX operators truncate rather than round.

Tom Lane 5c837ddd70 Rethink flex flags for syncrep_scanner.l.
Using flex's -i switch to achieve case-insensitivity is not a very safe
practice, because the scanner's behavior may then depend on the locale
that flex was invoked in.  In the particular example at hand, that's
not academic: the possible matches for "FIRST" will be different in a
Turkish locale than elsewhere.  Do it the hard way instead, as our
other scanners do.

Also, drop use of -b -CF -p, because this scanner is only used when
parsing the contents of a GUC variable.  That's not done often, and
the amount of text to be parsed can be expected to be trivial, so
prioritizing scanner speed over code size seems like quite the wrong
tradeoff.  Using flex's default optimization options reduces the
size of syncrep_gram.o by more than 50%.

The case-insensitivity problem is new in HEAD (cf commit 3901fd70c).
The poor choice of optimization flags exists also in 9.6, but it doesn't
seem important enough to back-patch.

Robert Haas ac8d7e1b83 Fix corruption of tableElts list by MergeAttributes().
Since commit e7b3349a8a, MergeAttributes
destructively modifies the input List, to which the caller's
CreateStmt still points.  One may wonder whether this was already a
bug, but commit f0e44751d7 made things
noticeably worse by adding additional destructive modifications so
that the caller's List might, in the case of creation a partitioned
table, no longer even be structurally valid.  Restore the status quo
ante by assigning the return value of MergeAttributes back to
stmt->tableElts in the caller.

In most of the places where DefineRelation is called, it doesn't
matter what stmt->tableElts points to here or whether it's valid or
not, because the caller doesn't use the statement for anything after
DefineRelation returns anyway.  However, ProcessUtilitySlow passes it
to EventTriggerCollectSimpleCommand, and that function tries to invoke
copyObject on it.  If any of the CreateStmt's substructure is invalid
at that point, undefined behavior will result.

One might wonder whether this whole area needs further revision -
perhaps DefineRelation() ought not to be destructively modifying the
caller-provided CreateStmt at all.  However, that would be a behavior
change for any event triggers using C code to inspect the CreateStmt,
so for now, just fix the crash.

Report by Amit Langote, who provided a somewhat different patch for it.

Robert Haas 3ec76ff1f2 Don't explicitly mark range partitioning columns NOT NULL.
This seemed like a good idea originally because there's no way to mark
a range partition as accepting NULL, but that now seems more like a
current limitation than something we want to lock down for all time.
For example, there's a proposal to add the notion of a default
partition which accepts all rows not otherwise routed, which directly
conflicts with the idea that a range-partitioned table should never
allow nulls anywhere.  So let's change this while we still can, by
putting the NOT NULL test into the partition constraint instead of
changing the column properties.

Tom Lane 8b0b6303e9 Try to ensure that stats collector's receive buffer size is at least 100KB.
Since commit 4e37b3e15, buildfarm member frogmouth has been failing
occasionally with symptoms indicating that some expected stats data is
getting dropped.  The reason that that commit changed the behavior seems
probably to be that more data is getting shoved at the collector in a short
span of time.  In current sources, the stats test's first session sends
about 9KB of data while exiting, which is probably the same as what was
sent just before wait_for_stats() in the previous test design.  But now,
the test's second session is starting up concurrently, and it sends another
2KB (presumably reflecting its initial catalog accesses).  Since frogmouth
is running on Windows XP, which reputedly has a default socket receive
buffer size of only 8KB, it is not very surprising if this has put us over
the threshold where the receive buffer can overflow and drop messages.

The same mechanism could very easily explain the intermittent stats test
failures we've been seeing for years, since background processes such
as the bgwriter will sometimes send data concurrently with all this, and
could thus cause occasional buffer overflows.

Hence, insert some code into pgstat_init() to increase the stats socket's
receive buffer size to 100KB if it's less than that.  (On failure, emit a
LOG message, but keep going.)  Modern systems seem to have default sizes
in the range of 100KB-250KB, but older platforms don't.  I couldn't find
any platforms that wouldn't accept 100KB, so in theory this won't cause
any portability problems.

If this is successful at reducing the buildfarm failure rate in HEAD,
we should back-patch it, because it's certain that similar buffer overflows
happen in the field on platforms with small buffer sizes.  Going forward,
there might be an argument for trying to increase the buffer size even
more, but let's take a baby step first.

Peter Eisentraut f8dc1985fd Fix ALTER SEQUENCE locking
In 1753b1b027, the pg_sequence system
catalog was introduced.  This made sequence metadata changes
transactional, while the actual sequence values are still behaving
nontransactionally.  This requires some refinement in how ALTER
SEQUENCE, which operates on both, locks the sequence and the catalog.

The main problems were:

- Concurrent ALTER SEQUENCE causes "tuple concurrently updated" error,
  caused by updates to pg_sequence catalog.

- Sequence WAL writes and catalog updates are not protected by same
  lock, which could lead to inconsistent recovery order.

- nextval() disregarding uncommitted ALTER SEQUENCE changes.

To fix, nextval() and friends now lock the sequence using
RowExclusiveLock instead of AccessShareLock.  ALTER SEQUENCE locks the
sequence using ShareRowExclusiveLock.  This means that nextval() and
ALTER SEQUENCE block each other, and ALTER SEQUENCE on the same sequence
blocks itself.  (This was already the case previously for the OWNER TO,
RENAME, and SET SCHEMA variants.)  Also, rearrange some code so that the
entire AlterSequence is protected by the lock on the sequence.

As an exception, use reduced locking for ALTER SEQUENCE ... RESTART.
Since that is basically a setval(), it does not require the full locking
of other ALTER SEQUENCE actions.  So check whether we are only running a
RESTART and run with less locking if so.

Also, avoid leaking a memory context per transaction, which the previous

Tom Lane b5b0db19b8 Fix handling of extended statistics during ALTER COLUMN TYPE.
ALTER COLUMN TYPE on a column used by a statistics object fails since
commit 928c4de30, because the relevant switch in ATExecAlterColumnType
is unprepared for columns to have dependencies from OCLASS_STATISTIC_EXT
objects.

Although the existing types of extended statistics don't actually need us
to do any work for a column type change, it seems completely indefensible
that that assumption is hidden behind the failure of an unrelated module
to contain any code for the case.  Hence, create and call an API function
in statscmds.c where the assumption can be explained, and where we could
add code to deal with the problem when it inevitably becomes real.

Also, the reason this wasn't handled before, neither for extended stats
nor for the last half-dozen new OCLASS kinds :-(, is that the default:
in that switch suppresses compiler warnings, allowing people to miss the
need to consider it when adding an OCLASS.  We don't really need a default
because surely getObjectClass should only return valid values of the enum;
so remove it, and add the missed OCLASS entries where they should be.

That's problematic because building a new snapshot isn't that cheap ,
especially as the the array of committed transactions needs to be
sorted.  When creating a slot on a server with a lot of transactions,
this could make logical slot creation infeasibly expensive.

After 955a684e04 there's no need to deal with transaction that
aren't guaranteed to be fully observable.  That allows to avoid
building snapshots for transactions that haven't modified catalog,
even before reaching consistency.

While this isn't necessarily a bugfix, slot creation being impossible
in some production workloads, is severe enough to warrant
backpatching.

Andres Freund 955a684e04 Fix race condition leading to hanging logical slot creation.
The snapshot assembly during the creation of logical slots relied
waiting for transactions in xl_running_xacts to end, by checking for
their commit/abort records.  Unfortunately, despite locking, it is
possible to see an xl_running_xact record listing transactions as
ready, that have already WAL-logged an commit/abort record, as the
locking just prevents the ProcArray to be adjusted, and the commit
record has to be logged first.

That lead to either delayed or hanging snapshot creation, because
snapbuild.c would wait "forever" to see commit/abort records for some
transactions.  That hang resolved only if a xl_running_xacts record
without any running transactions happened to be logged, far from
certain on a busy server.

It's impractical to prevent that via more heavyweight locking, the
likelihood of deadlocks and significantly increased contention would
be too big.

Instead change the initial snapshot creation to be solely based on
tracking the oldest running transaction via
xl_running_xacts->oldestRunningXid - that actually ends up
significantly simplifying the code.  That has two disadvantages:
1) Because we cannot fully "trust" the contents of xl_running_xacts,
   we cannot use it to build the initial snapshot.  Instead we have to
   wait twice for all running transactions to finish.
2) Previously a slot, unless the race occurred, could be created when
   the all transaction perceived as running based on commit/abort
   records, now we have to wait for the next xl_running_xacts record.
To address that, trigger logging new xl_running_xacts record from
within snapbuild.c exactly when necessary.

Unfortunately snabuild.c's SnapBuild is stored on disk, one of the
stupider ideas of a certain Mr Freund, so we can't change it in a
minor release.  As this is going to be backpatched, we have to hack
around a bit to keep on-disk compatibility.  A later commit will
rejigger that on master.

Tom Lane 9aab83fc50 Redesign get_attstatsslot()/free_attstatsslot() for more safety and speed.
The mess cleaned up in commit da0759600 is clear evidence that it's a
bug hazard to expect the caller of get_attstatsslot()/free_attstatsslot()
to provide the correct type OID for the array elements in the slot.
Moreover, we weren't even getting any performance benefit from that,
since get_attstatsslot() was extracting the real type OID from the array
anyway.  So we ought to get rid of that requirement; indeed, it would
make more sense for get_attstatsslot() to pass back the type OID it found,
in case the caller isn't sure what to expect, which is likely in binary-
compatible-operator cases.

Another problem with the current implementation is that if the stats array
element type is pass-by-reference, we incur a palloc/memcpy/pfree cycle
for each element.  That seemed acceptable when the code was written because
we were targeting O(10) array sizes --- but these days, stats arrays are
almost always bigger than that, sometimes much bigger.  We can save a
significant number of cycles by doing one palloc/memcpy/pfree of the whole
array.  Indeed, in the now-probably-common case where the array is toasted,
that happens anyway so this method is basically free.  (Note: although the
catcache code will inline any out-of-line toasted values, it doesn't
decompress them.  At the other end of the size range, it doesn't expand
short-header datums either.  In either case, DatumGetArrayTypeP would have
to make a copy.  We do end up using an extra array copy step if the element
type is pass-by-value and the array length is neither small enough for a
short header nor large enough to have suffered compression.  But that
seems like a very acceptable price for winning in pass-by-ref cases.)

Hence, redesign to take these insights into account.  While at it,
convert to an API in which we fill a struct rather than passing a bunch
of pointers to individual output arguments.  That will make it less
painful if we ever want further expansion of what get_attstatsslot can
pass back.

It's certainly arguable that this is new development and not something to
push post-feature-freeze.  However, I view it as primarily bug-proofing
and therefore something that's better to have sooner not later.  Since
we aren't quite at beta phase yet, let's put it in.

Tom Lane 2df5d46555 Avoid searching for callback functions in CallSyscacheCallbacks().
We have now grown enough registerable syscache-invalidation callback
functions that the original assumption that there would be few of them
is causing performance problems.  In particular, let's fix things so that
CallSyscacheCallbacks doesn't have to search the whole array to find
which callback(s) to invoke for a given cache ID.  Preserve the original
behavior that callbacks are called in order of registration, just in
case there's someplace that depends on that (which I doubt).

In support of this, export the number of syscaches from syscache.h.
People could have found that out anyway from the enum, but adding a
#define makes that much safer.

This provides a useful additional speedup in Mathieu Fenniak's
logical-decoding test case, although we're reaching the point of
diminishing returns there.  I think any further improvement will have
to come from reducing the number of cache invalidations that are
triggered in the first place.  Still, we can hope that this change
gives some incremental benefit for all invalidation scenarios.

Back-patch to 9.4 where logical decoding was introduced.

Tom Lane 8085a4f751 Reduce initial size of RelfilenodeMapHash.
A test case provided by Mathieu Fenniak shows that hash_seq_search'ing
this hashtable can consume a very significant amount of overhead during
logical decoding, which triggers frequent cache invalidation.  Testing
suggests that the actual population of the hashtable is often no more
than a few dozen entries, so we can cut the overhead just by dropping
the initial number of buckets down from 1024 --- I chose to cut it to 64.
(In situations where we do have a significant number of entries, we
shouldn't get any real penalty from doing this, as the dynahash.c code
will resize the hashtable automatically.)

This gives a further factor-of-two savings in Mathieu's test case.
That may be overly optimistic for real-world benefit, as real cases
may have larger average table populations, but it's hard to see it
turning into a net negative for any workload.

Tom Lane 50ee1c7462 Avoid searching for the target catcache in CatalogCacheIdInvalidate.
A test case provided by Mathieu Fenniak shows that the initial search for
the target catcache in CatalogCacheIdInvalidate consumes a very significant
amount of overhead in cases where cache invalidation is triggered but has
little useful work to do.  There is no good reason for that search to exist
at all, as the index array maintained by syscache.c allows direct lookup of
the catcache from its ID.  We just need a frontend function in syscache.c,
matching the division of labor for most other cache-accessing operations.

While there's more that can be done in this area, this patch alone reduces
the runtime of Mathieu's example by 2X.  We can hope that it offers some
useful benefit in other cases too, although usually cache invalidation
overhead is not such a striking fraction of the total runtime.

Back-patch to 9.4 where logical decoding was introduced.  It might be
worth going further back, but presently the only case we know of where
cache invalidation is really a significant burden is in logical decoding.
Also, older branches have fewer catcaches, reducing the possible benefit.

(Note: although this nominally changes catcache's API, we have always
documented CatalogCacheIdInvalidate as a private function, so I would
have little sympathy for an external module calling it directly.  So
backpatching should be fine.)

Tom Lane 928c4de309 Fix dependencies for extended statistics objects.
A stats object ought to have a dependency on each individual column
it reads, not the entire table.  Doing this honestly lets us get rid
of the hard-wired logic in RemoveStatisticsExt, which seems to have
been misguidedly modeled on RemoveStatistics; and it will be far easier
to extend to multiple tables later.

Also, add overlooked dependency on owner, and make the dependency on
schema be NORMAL like every other such dependency.

There remains some unfinished work here, which is to allow statistics
objects to be extension members.  That takes more effort than just
adding the dependency call, though, so I left it out for now.

should exist for a statistics object.

Alvaro Herrera bc085205c8 Change CREATE STATISTICS syntax
Previously, we had the WITH clause in the middle of the command, where
you'd specify both generic options as well as statistic types.  Few
people liked this, so this commit changes it to remove the WITH keyword
from that clause and makes it accept statistic types only.  (We
currently don't have any generic options, but if we invent in the
future, we will gain a new WITH clause, probably at the end of the
command).

Also, the column list is now specified without parens, which makes the
whole command look more similar to a SELECT command.  This change will
let us expand the command to supporting expressions (not just columns
names) as well as multiple tables and their join conditions.

Tom added lots of code comments and fixed some parts of the CREATE
STATISTICS reference page, too; more changes in this area are
forthcoming.  He also fixed a potential problem in the alter_generic
regression test, reducing verbosity on a cascaded drop to avoid
dependency on message ordering, as we do in other tests.

Tom also closed a security bug: we documented that table ownership was
required in order to create a statistics object on it, but didn't
actually implement it.

Implement tab-completion for statistics objects.  This can stand some
more improvement.

Increase from the historical value of 32 to 64.  We are up to 31 callers

as well as yet other terms such as "wal_position".  Since we've already

Heikki Linnakangas eb61136dc7 Remove support for password_encryption='off' / 'plain'.
Storing passwords in plaintext hasn't been a good idea for a very long
time, if ever. Now seems like a good time to finally forbid it, since we're
messing with this in PostgreSQL 10 anyway.

Remove the CREATE/ALTER USER UNENCRYPTED PASSSWORD 'foo' syntax, since
storing passwords unencrypted is no longer supported. ENCRYPTED PASSWORD
'foo' is still accepted, but ENCRYPTED is now just a noise-word, it does
the same as just PASSWORD 'foo'.

Likewise, remove the --unencrypted option from createuser, but accept
--encrypted as a no-op for backward compatibility. AFAICS, --encrypted was
a no-op even before this patch, because createuser encrypted the password
before sending it to the server even if --encrypted was not specified. It
added the ENCRYPTED keyword to the SQL command, but since the password was
already in encrypted form, it didn't make any difference. The documentation
was not clear on whether that was intended or not, but it's moot now.

Also, while password_encryption='on' is still accepted as an alias for
'md5', it is now marked as hidden, so that it is not listed as an accepted
value in error hints, for example. That's not directly related to removing
'plain', but it seems better this way.

When we add the SELECT-privilege based policies to the RLS with check
options (such as for an UPDATE statement, or when we have INSERT ...
RETURNING), we need to be sure and use the 'USING' case if the policy is
actually an 'ALL' policy (which could have both a USING clause and an
independent WITH CHECK clause).

This could result in policies acting differently when built using ALL
(when the ALL had both USING and WITH CHECK clauses) and when building
the policies independently as SELECT and UPDATE policies.

Fix this by adding an explicit boolean to add_with_check_options() to
indicate when the USING policy should be used, even if the policy has
both USING and WITH CHECK policies on it.

Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was introduced.

Andres Freund e6c44eef55 Fix off-by-one possibly leading to skipped XLOG_RUNNING_XACTS records.
Since 6ef2eba3f5 ("Skip checkpoints, archiving on idle systems."),
GetLastImportantRecPtr() is used to avoid performing superfluous
checkpoints, xlog switches, running-xact records when the system is
idle.  Unfortunately the check concerning running-xact records had a
off-by-one error, leading to such records being potentially skipped
when only a single record has been inserted since the last
running-xact record.

An alternative approach would have been to change
GetLastImportantRecPtr()'s definition to point to the end of records,
but that would make the checkpoint code more complicated.

Peter Eisentraut 086221cf6b Prevent panic during shutdown checkpoint
When the checkpointer writes the shutdown checkpoint, it checks
afterwards whether any WAL has been written since it started and throws
a PANIC if so.  At that point, only walsenders are still active, so one
might think this could not happen, but walsenders can also generate WAL,
for instance in BASE_BACKUP and certain variants of
CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT.  So they can trigger this panic if such a
command is run while the shutdown checkpoint is being written.

To fix this, divide the walsender shutdown into two phases.  First, the
postmaster sends a SIGUSR2 signal to all walsenders.  The walsenders
then put themselves into the "stopping" state.  In this state, they
reject any new commands.  (For simplicity, we reject all new commands,
so that in the future we do not have to track meticulously which
commands might generate WAL.)  The checkpointer waits for all walsenders
to reach this state before proceeding with the shutdown checkpoint.
After the shutdown checkpoint is done, the postmaster sends
SIGINT (previously unused) to the walsenders.  This triggers the
existing shutdown behavior of sending out the shutdown checkpoint record
and then terminating.

Heikki Linnakangas 344a113079 Don't use SCRAM-specific "e=invalid-proof" on invalid password.
Instead, send the same FATAL message as with other password-based
authentication mechanisms. This gives a more user-friendly message:

psql: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "test"

instead of:

psql: error received from server in SASL exchange: invalid-proof

Even before this patch, the server sent that FATAL message, after the
SCRAM-specific "e=invalid-proof" message. But libpq would stop at the
SCRAM error message, and not process the ErrorResponse that would come
after that. We could've taught libpq to check for an ErrorResponse after
failed authentication, but it's simpler to modify the server to send only
the ErrorResponse. The SCRAM specification allows for aborting the
authentication at any point, using an application-defined error mechanism,
like PostgreSQL's ErrorResponse. Using the e=invalid-proof message is
optional.

Tom Lane 3f074845a8 Fix pfree-of-already-freed-tuple when rescanning a GiST index-only scan.
GiST's getNextNearest() function attempts to pfree the previously-returned
tuple if any (that is, scan->xs_hitup in HEAD, or scan->xs_itup in older
branches).  However, if we are rescanning a plan node after ending a
previous scan early, those tuple pointers could be pointing to garbage,
because they would be pointing into the scan's pageDataCxt or queueCxt
which has been reset.  In a debug build this reliably results in a crash,
although I think it might sometimes accidentally fail to fail in
production builds.

To fix, clear the pointer field anyplace we reset a context it might
be pointing into.  This may be overkill --- I think probably only the
queueCxt case is involved in this bug, so that resetting in gistrescan()
would be sufficient --- but dangling pointers are generally bad news,
so let's avoid them.

Another plausible answer might be to just not bother with the pfree in
getNextNearest().  The reconstructed tuples would go away anyway in the
context resets, and I'm far from convinced that freeing them a bit earlier
really saves anything meaningful.  I'll stick with the original logic in
this patch, but if we find more problems in the same area we should
consider that approach.

Tom Lane 23c6eb0336 Remove create_singleton_array(), hard-coding the case in its sole caller.
create_singleton_array() was not really as useful as we perhaps thought
when we added it.  It had never accreted more than one call site, and is
only saving a dozen lines of code at that one, which is considerably less
bulk than the function itself.  Moreover, because of its insistence on
using the caller's fn_extra cache space, it's arguably a coding hazard.
text_to_array_internal() does not currently use fn_extra in any other way,
but if it did it would be subtly broken, since the conflicting fn_extra
uses could be needed within a single query, in the seldom-tested case that
the field separator varies during the query.  The same objection seems
likely to apply to any other potential caller.

The replacement code is a bit uglier, because it hardwires knowledge of
the storage parameters of type TEXT, but it's not like we haven't got
dozens or hundreds of other places that do the same.  Uglier seems like
a good tradeoff for smaller, faster, and safer.

Tom Lane 92a43e4857 Reduce semijoins with unique inner relations to plain inner joins.
If the inner relation can be proven unique, that is it can have no more
than one matching row for any row of the outer query, then we might as
well implement the semijoin as a plain inner join, allowing substantially
more freedom to the planner.  This is a form of outer join strength
reduction, but it can't be implemented in reduce_outer_joins() because
we don't have enough info about the individual relations at that stage.
Instead do it much like remove_useless_joins(): once we've built base
relations, we can make another pass over the SpecialJoinInfo list and
get rid of any entries representing reducible semijoins.

This is essentially a followon to the inner-unique patch (commit 9c7f5229a)
and makes use of the proof machinery that that patch created.  We need only
minor refactoring of innerrel_is_unique's API to support this usage.

for the join, because the inner path produced by create_unique_path should
be unique relative to the outer relation.  However, that's true only if
we're considering joining to the whole outer relation --- otherwise we may
be applying only some of the join quals, and so the inner path might be
non-unique from the perspective of this join.  Adjust the test to only
believe that we can set inner_unique if we have the whole semijoin LHS on
the outer side.

Peter Eisentraut e3cf708016 Wait between tablesync worker restarts
Before restarting a tablesync worker for the same relation, wait
wal_retrieve_retry_interval (currently 5s by default).  This avoids
restarting failing workers in a tight loop.

We keep the last start times in a hash table last_start_times that is
separate from the table_states list, because that list is cleared out on
syscache invalidation, which happens whenever a table finishes syncing.
The hash table is kept until all tables have finished syncing.

A future project might be to unify these two and keep everything in one
data structure, but for now this is a less invasive change to accomplish
the original purpose.

For the test suite, set wal_retrieve_retry_interval to its minimum
value, to not increase the test suite run time.

when creating a slot via sql (which can't export snapshots).  As

Andres Freund 56e19d938d Don't use on-disk snapshots for exported logical decoding snapshot.
Logical decoding stores historical snapshots on disk, so that logical
decoding can restart without having to reconstruct a snapshot from
scratch (for which the resources are not guaranteed to be present
anymore).  These serialized snapshots were also used when creating a
new slot via the walsender interface, which can export a "full"
snapshot (i.e. one that can read all tables, not just catalog ones).

The problem is that the serialized snapshots are only useful for
catalogs and not for normal user tables.  Thus the use of such a
serialized snapshot could result in an inconsistent snapshot being
exported, which could lead to queries returning wrong data.  This
would only happen if logical slots are created while another logical
slot already exists.

Fujii Masao 9f11fcec66 Fix bug so logical rep launcher saves correctly time of last startup of worker.
Previously the logical replication launcher stored the last timestamp
when it started the worker, in the local variable "last_start_time",
in order to check whether wal_retrive_retry_interval elapsed since
the last startup of worker. If it has elapsed, the launcher sees
pg_subscription and starts new worker if necessary. This is for
limitting the startup of worker to once a wal_retrieve_retry_interval.

The bug was that the variable "last_start_time" was defined and
always initialized with 0 at the beginning of the launcher's main loop.
So even if it's set to the last timestamp in later phase of the loop,
it's always reset to 0. Therefore the launcher could not check
correctly whether wal_retrieve_retry_interval elapsed since
the last startup.

This patch moves the variable "last_start_time" outside the main loop
so that it will not be reset.

Andres Freund 2bef06d516 Preserve required !catalog tuples while computing initial decoding snapshot.
The logical decoding machinery already preserved all the required
catalog tuples, which is sufficient in the course of normal logical
decoding, but did not guarantee that non-catalog tuples were preserved
during computation of the initial snapshot when creating a slot over
the replication protocol.

This could cause a corrupted initial snapshot being exported.  The
time window for issues is usually not terribly large, but on a busy
server it's perfectly possible to it hit it.  Ongoing decoding is not
affected by this bug.

To avoid increased overhead for the SQL API, only retain additional
tuples when a logical slot is being created over the replication
protocol.  To do so this commit changes the signature of
CreateInitDecodingContext(), but it seems unlikely that it's being
used in an extension, so that's probably ok.

In a drive-by fix, fix handling of

Tom Lane fa31b6f4e9 Make latch.c more paranoid about child-process cases.
Although the postmaster doesn't currently create a self-pipe or any
latches, there's discussion of it doing so in future.  It's also
conceivable that a shared_preload_libraries extension would try to
create such a thing in the postmaster process today.  In that case
the self-pipe FDs would be inherited by forked child processes.
latch.c was entirely unprepared for such a case and could suffer an
assertion failure, or worse try to use the inherited pipe if somebody
called WaitLatch without having called InitializeLatchSupport in that
process.  Make it keep track of whether InitializeLatchSupport has been
called in the *current* process, and do the right thing if state has
been inherited from a parent.

Apply FD_CLOEXEC to file descriptors created in latch.c (the self-pipe,
as well as epoll event sets).  This ensures that child processes spawned
in backends, the archiver, etc cannot accidentally or intentionally mess
with these FDs.  It also ensures that we end up with the right state
for the self-pipe in EXEC_BACKEND processes, which otherwise wouldn't
know to close the postmaster's self-pipe FDs.

Tom Lane aa1351f1ee Allow multiple bgworkers to be launched per postmaster iteration.
Previously, maybe_start_bgworker() would launch at most one bgworker
process per call, on the grounds that the postmaster might otherwise
neglect its other duties for too long.  However, that seems overly
conservative, especially since bad effects only become obvious when
many hundreds of bgworkers need to be launched at once.  On the other
side of the coin is that the existing logic could result in substantial
delay of bgworker launches, because ServerLoop isn't guaranteed to
iterate immediately after a signal arrives.  (My attempt to fix that
by using pselect(2) encountered too many portability question marks,
and in any case could not help on platforms without pselect().)
One could also question the wisdom of using an O(N^2) processing
method if the system is intended to support so many bgworkers.

As a compromise, allow that function to launch up to 100 bgworkers
per call (and in consequence, rename it to maybe_start_bgworkers).
This will allow any normal parallel-query request for workers
to be satisfied immediately during sigusr1_handler, avoiding the
question of whether ServerLoop will be able to launch more promptly.

There is talk of rewriting the postmaster to use a WaitEventSet to
avoid the signal-response-delay problem, but I'd argue that this change
should be kept even after that happens (if it ever does).

Backpatch to 9.6 where parallel query was added.  The issue exists
before that, but previous uses of bgworkers typically aren't as
sensitive to how quickly they get launched.

Our general rule for pg_get_X(oid) functions is to simply return NULL
when passed an invalid or inappropriate OID.  Teach pg_get_partkeydef to

Peter Eisentraut de43897122 Fix various concurrency issues in logical replication worker launching
The code was originally written with assumption that launcher is the
only process starting the worker.  However that hasn't been true since
commit 7c4f52409 which failed to modify the worker management code
adequately.

This patch adds an in_use field to the LogicalRepWorker struct to
indicate whether the worker slot is being used and uses proper locking
everywhere this flag is set or read.

However if the parent process dies while the new worker is starting and
the new worker fails to attach to shared memory, this flag would never
get cleared.  We solve this rare corner case by adding a sort of garbage
collector for in_use slots.  This uses another field in the
LogicalRepWorker struct named launch_time that contains the time when
the worker was started.  If any request to start a new worker does not
find free slot, we'll check for workers that were supposed to start but
took too long to actually do so, and reuse their slot.

In passing also fix possible race conditions when stopping a worker that
hasn't finished starting yet.

Fujii Masao 346199dcab Set the priorities of all quorum synchronous standbys to 1.
In quorum-based synchronous replication, all the standbys listed in
synchronous_standby_names equally have chances to be chosen
as synchronous standbys. So they should have the same priority.
However, previously, quorum standbys whose names appear earlier

those priority values didn't affect the selection of synchronous standbys.
Users could see those "meaningless" priority values in pg_stat_replication

Tom Lane 64925603c9 Revert "Use pselect(2) not select(2), if available, to wait in postmaster's loop."
This reverts commit 81069a9efc.

Buildfarm results suggest that some platforms have versions of pselect(2)
that are not merely non-atomic, but flat out non-functional.  Revert the
use-pselect patch to confirm this diagnosis (and exclude the no-SA_RESTART
patch as the source of trouble).  If it's so, we should probably look into
blacklisting specific platforms that have broken pselect.

Tom Lane 81069a9efc Use pselect(2) not select(2), if available, to wait in postmaster's loop.
Traditionally we've unblocked signals, called select(2), and then blocked
signals again.  The code expects that the select() will be cancelled with
EINTR if an interrupt occurs; but there's a race condition, which is that
an already-pending signal will be delivered as soon as we unblock, and then
when we reach select() there will be nothing preventing it from waiting.
This can result in a long delay before we perform any action that
ServerLoop was supposed to have taken in response to the signal.  As with
the somewhat-similar symptoms fixed by commit 893902085, the main practical
problem is slow launching of parallel workers.  The window for trouble is
usually pretty short, corresponding to one iteration of ServerLoop; but
it's not negligible.

To fix, use pselect(2) in place of select(2) where available, as that's
designed to solve exactly this problem.  Where not available, we continue
to use the old way, and are no worse off than before.

pselect(2) has been required by POSIX since about 2001, so most modern
platforms should have it.  A bigger portability issue is that some
implementations are said to be non-atomic, ie pselect() isn't really
any different from unblock/select/reblock.  Still, we're no worse off
than before on such a platform.

There is talk of rewriting the postmaster to use a WaitEventSet and
not do signal response work in signal handlers, at which point this
could be reverted, since we'd be using a self-pipe to solve the race
condition.  But that's not happening before v11 at the earliest.

Back-patch to 9.6.  The problem exists much further back, but the
worst symptom arises only in connection with parallel query, so it
does not seem worth taking any portability risks in older branches.

Tom Lane 8939020853 Run the postmaster's signal handlers without SA_RESTART.
The postmaster keeps signals blocked everywhere except while waiting
for something to happen in ServerLoop().  The code expects that the
select(2) will be cancelled with EINTR if an interrupt occurs; without
that, followup actions that should be performed by ServerLoop() itself
will be delayed.  However, some platforms interpret the SA_RESTART
signal flag as meaning that they should restart rather than cancel
the select(2).  Worse yet, some of them restart it with the original
timeout delay, meaning that a steady stream of signal interrupts can
prevent ServerLoop() from iterating at all if there are no incoming
connection requests.

Observable symptoms of this, on an affected platform such as HPUX 10,
include extremely slow parallel query startup (possibly as much as
30 seconds) and failure to update timestamps on the postmaster's sockets
and lockfiles when no new connections arrive for a long time.

We can fix this by running the postmaster's signal handlers without
SA_RESTART.  That would be quite a scary change if the range of code
where signals are accepted weren't so tiny, but as it is, it seems
safe enough.  (Note that postmaster children do, and must, reset all
the handlers before unblocking signals; so this change should not
affect any child process.)

There is talk of rewriting the postmaster to use a WaitEventSet and
not do signal response work in signal handlers, at which point it might
be appropriate to revert this patch.  But that's not happening before
v11 at the earliest.

Back-patch to 9.6.  The problem exists much further back, but the

Tom Lane 4fe04244b5 Fix postmaster's handling of fork failure for a bgworker process.
This corner case didn't behave nicely at all: the postmaster would
(partially) update its state as though the process had started
successfully, and be quite confused thereafter.  Fix it to act
like the worker had crashed, instead.

In passing, refactor so that do_start_bgworker contains all the
state-change logic for bgworker launch, rather than just some of it.

Back-patch as far as 9.4.  9.3 contains similar logic, but it's just
enough different that I don't feel comfortable applying the patch
without more study; and the use of bgworkers in 9.3 was so small
that it doesn't seem worth the extra work.

transam/parallel.c is still entirely unprepared for the possibility
of bgworker startup failure, but that seems like material for a
separate patch.

This seems to be largely cosmetic, avoiding valgrind bleats and the

cause spurious failures.  Backpatch nonetheless.

It's a bit unfortunate that contrib/test_decoding/sql/replorigin.sql

Tom Lane 3e51725b38 Avoid depending on non-POSIX behavior of fcntl(2).
The POSIX standard does not say that the success return value for
fcntl(F_SETFD) and fcntl(F_SETFL) is zero; it says only that it's not -1.
We had several calls that were making the stronger assumption.  Adjust
them to test specifically for -1 for strict spec compliance.

The standard further leaves open the possibility that the O_NONBLOCK
flag bit is not the only active one in F_SETFL's argument.  Formally,
therefore, one ought to get the current flags with F_GETFL and store
them back with only the O_NONBLOCK bit changed when trying to change
the nonblock state.  In port/noblock.c, we were doing the full pushup
in pg_set_block but not in pg_set_noblock, which is just weird.  Make
both of them do it properly, since they have little business making
any assumptions about the socket they're handed.  The other places
where we're issuing F_SETFL are working with FDs we just got from
pipe(2), so it's reasonable to assume the FDs' properties are all
default, so I didn't bother adding F_GETFL steps there.

Also, while pg_set_block deserves some points for trying to do things
right, somebody had decided that it'd be even better to cast fcntl's
third argument to "long".  Which is completely loony, because POSIX
clearly says the third argument for an F_SETFL call is "int".

Given the lack of field complaints, these missteps apparently are not
of significance on any common platforms.  But they're still wrong,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

It doesn't make any immediate difference to PostgreSQL, but might as well
follow the standard, since one exists. (I looked at RFC 5803 earlier, but
didn't fully understand it back then.)

The new format uses Base64 instead of hex to encode StoredKey and
ServerKey, which makes the verifiers slightly smaller. Using the same
encoding for the salt and the keys also means that you only need one
encoder/decoder instead of two. Although we have code in the backend to
do both, we are talking about teaching libpq how to create SCRAM verifiers
for PQencodePassword(), and libpq doesn't currently have any code for hex
encoding.

Bump catversion, because this renders any existing SCRAM verifiers in

Tom Lane 39151781c8 Fix testing of parallel-safety of SubPlans.
is_parallel_safe() supposed that the only relevant property of a SubPlan
was the parallel safety of the referenced subplan tree.  This is wrong:
the testexpr or args subtrees might contain parallel-unsafe stuff, as
demonstrated by the test case added here.  However, just recursing into the
subtrees fails in a different way: we'll typically find PARAM_EXEC Params
representing the subplan's output columns in the testexpr.  The previous
coding supposed that any Param must be treated as parallel-restricted, so
that a naive attempt at fixing this disabled parallel pushdown of SubPlans
altogether.  We must instead determine, for any visited Param, whether it
is one that would be computed by a surrounding SubPlan node; if so, it's
safe to push down along with the SubPlan node.

We might later be able to extend this logic to cope with Params used for
correlated subplans and other cases; but that's a task for v11 or beyond.

Tom Lane e240a65c7d Provide an error cursor for "can't call an SRF here" errors.
Since it appears that v10 is going to move the goalposts by some amount
in terms of where you can and can't invoke set-returning functions,
arrange for the executor's "set-valued function called in context that
cannot accept a set" errors to include a syntax position if possible,
pointing to the specific SRF that can't be called where it's located.

The main bit of infrastructure needed for this is to make the query source
text accessible in the executor; but it turns out that commit 4c728f382
already did that.  We just need a new function executor_errposition()
modeled on parser_errposition(), and we're ready to rock.

While experimenting with this, I noted that the error position wasn't
properly reported if it occurred in a plpgsql FOR-over-query loop,
which turned out to be because SPI_cursor_open_internal wasn't providing
an error context callback during PortalStart.  Fix that.

There's a whole lot more that could be done with this infrastructure
now that it's there, but this is not the right time in the development
cycle for that sort of work.  Hence, resist the temptation to plaster
executor_errposition() calls everywhere ... for the moment.

Heikki Linnakangas c727f120ff Rename "scram" to "scram-sha-256" in pg_hba.conf and password_encryption.
Per discussion, plain "scram" is confusing because we actually implement
SCRAM-SHA-256 rather than the original SCRAM that uses SHA-1 as the hash
algorithm. If we add support for SCRAM-SHA-512 or some other mechanism in
the SCRAM family in the future, that would become even more confusing.

Most of the internal files and functions still use just "scram" as a
shorthand for SCRMA-SHA-256, but I did change PASSWORD_TYPE_SCRAM to
PASSWORD_TYPE_SCRAM_SHA_256, as that could potentially be used by 3rd
party extensions that hook into the password-check hook.

Michael Paquier did this in an earlier version of the SCRAM patch set
already, but I didn't include that in the version that was committed.

CopyFrom() needs a range table for formatting certain errors for
constraint violations.

This changes the mechanism of how the range table is passed to the
CopyFrom() executor state.  We used to generate the range table and one
entry for the relation manually inside DoCopy().  Now we use
addRangeTableEntryForRelation() to setup the range table and relation
entry for the ParseState, which is then passed down by BeginCopyFrom().

Tom Lane 76799fc89d Always build a custom plan node's targetlist from the path's pathtarget.
We were applying the use_physical_tlist optimization to all relation
scan plans, even those implemented by custom scan providers.  However,
that's a bad idea for a couple of reasons.  The custom provider might
be unable to provide columns that it hadn't expected to be asked for
(for example, the custom scan might depend on an index-only scan).
Even more to the point, there's no good reason to suppose that this
"optimization" is a win for a custom scan; whatever the custom provider
is doing is likely not based on simply returning physical heap tuples.
(As a counterexample, if the custom scan is an interface to a column store,
demanding all columns would be a huge loss.)  If it is a win, the custom
provider could make that decision for itself and insert a suitable
pathtarget into the path, anyway.

Per discussion with Dmitry Ivanov.  Back-patch to 9.5 where custom scan
support was introduced.  The argument that the custom provider can adjust
the behavior by changing the pathtarget only applies to 9.6+, but on
balance it seems more likely that use_physical_tlist will hurt custom
scans than help them.

Tom Lane a74740fbd3 Provide a way to control SysV shmem attach address in EXEC_BACKEND builds.
In standard non-Windows builds, there's no particular reason to care what
address the kernel chooses to map the shared memory segment at.  However,
when building with EXEC_BACKEND, there's a risk that the chosen address
won't be available in all child processes.  Linux with ASLR enabled (which
it is by default) seems particularly at risk because it puts shmem segments
into the same area where it maps shared libraries.  We can work around
that by specifying a mapping address that's outside the range where
shared libraries could get mapped.  On x86_64 Linux, 0x7e0000000000
seems to work well.

This is only meant for testing/debugging purposes, so it doesn't seem
necessary to go as far as providing a GUC (or any user-visible
documentation, though we might change that later).  Instead, it's just
controlled by setting an environment variable PG_SHMEM_ADDR to the
desired attach address.

Back-patch to all supported branches, since the point here is to
remove intermittent buildfarm failures on EXEC_BACKEND animals.
Owners of affected animals will need to add a suitable setting of
PG_SHMEM_ADDR to their build_env configuration.

Tom Lane 32470825d3 Avoid passing function pointers across process boundaries.
We'd already recognized that we can't pass function pointers across process
boundaries for functions in loadable modules, since a shared library could
get loaded at different addresses in different processes.  But actually the
practice doesn't work for functions in the core backend either, if we're
using EXEC_BACKEND.  This is the cause of recent failures on buildfarm
member culicidae.  Switch to passing a string function name in all cases.

Something like this needs to be back-patched into 9.6, but let's see
if the buildfarm likes it first.

Tom Lane 2040bb4a0b Clean up manipulations of hash indexes' hasho_flag field.
Standardize on testing a hash index page's type by doing
	(opaque->hasho_flag & LH_PAGE_TYPE) == LH_xxx_PAGE
Various places were taking shortcuts like
	opaque->hasho_flag & LH_BUCKET_PAGE
which while not actually wrong, is still bad practice because
it encourages use of
	opaque->hasho_flag & LH_UNUSED_PAGE
which *is* wrong (LH_UNUSED_PAGE == 0, so the above is constant false).
hash_xlog.c's hash_mask() contained such an incorrect test.

This also ensures that we mask out the additional flag bits that
hasho_flag has accreted since 9.6.  pgstattuple's pgstat_hash_page(),
for one, was failing to do that and was thus actively broken.

Also fix assorted comments that hadn't been updated to reflect the
extended usage of hasho_flag, and fix some macros that were testing
just "(hasho_flag & bit)" to use the less dangerous, project-approved
form "((hasho_flag & bit) != 0)".

Coverity found the bug in hash_mask(); I noted the one in
pgstat_hash_page() through code reading.

Tom Lane 6cfaffc0dd Fix regexport.c to behave sanely with lookaround constraints.
regexport.c thought it could just ignore LACON arcs, but the correct
behavior is to treat them as satisfiable while consuming zero input
(rather reminiscently of commit 9f1e642d5).  Otherwise, the emitted
simplified-NFA representation may contain no paths leading from initial
to final state, which unsurprisingly confuses pg_trgm, as seen in
bug #14623 from Jeff Janes.

Since regexport's output representation has no concept of an arc that
consumes zero input, recurse internally to find the next normal arc(s)
after any LACON transitions.  We'd be forced into changing that
representation if a LACON could be the last arc reaching the final
state, but fortunately the regex library never builds NFAs with such
a configuration, so there always is a next normal arc.

Back-patch to 9.3 where this logic was introduced.

Heikki Linnakangas 4f3b87ab78 Improve the SASL authentication protocol.
This contains some protocol changes to SASL authentiation (which is new
in v10):

* For future-proofing, in the AuthenticationSASL message that begins SASL
  authentication, provide a list of SASL mechanisms that the server
  supports, for the client to choose from. Currently, it's always just
  SCRAM-SHA-256.

* Add a separate authentication message type for the final server->client
  SASL message, which the client doesn't need to respond to. This makes
  it unambiguous whether the client is supposed to send a response or not.
  The SASL mechanism should know that anyway, but better to be explicit.

Also, in the server, support clients that don't send an Initial Client
response in the first SASLInitialResponse message. The server is supposed
to first send an empty request in that case, to which the client will
respond with the data that usually comes in the Initial Client Response.
libpq uses the Initial Client Response field and doesn't need this, and I
would assume any other sensible implementation to use Initial Client
Response, too, but let's follow the SASL spec.

Improve the documentation on SASL authentication in protocol. Add a
section describing the SASL message flow, and some details on our
SCRAM-SHA-256 implementation.

Document the different kinds of PasswordMessages that the frontend sends
in different phases of SASL authentication, as well as GSS/SSPI
authentication as separate message formats. Even though they're all 'p'
messages, and the exact format depends on the context, describing them as
separate message formats makes the documentation more clear.

Tom Lane 5e39f06cfe Move bootstrap-time lookup of regproc OIDs into genbki.pl.
Formerly, the bootstrap backend looked up the OIDs corresponding to
names in regproc catalog entries using brute-force searches of pg_proc.
It was somewhat remarkable that that worked at all, since it was used
while populating other pretty-fundamental catalogs like pg_operator.
And it was also quite slow, and getting slower as pg_proc gets bigger.

This patch moves the lookup work into genbki.pl, so that the values in
postgres.bki for regproc columns are always numeric OIDs, an option
that regprocin() already supported.  Perl isn't the world's speediest
language, so this about doubles the time needed to run genbki.pl (from
0.3 to 0.6 sec on my machine).  But we only do that at most once per
build.  The time needed to run initdb drops significantly --- on my
machine, initdb --no-sync goes from 1.8 to 1.3 seconds.  So this is
a small net win even for just one initdb per build, and it becomes
quite a nice win for test sequences requiring many initdb runs.

Strip out the now-dead code for brute-force catalog searching in
regprocin.  We'd also cargo-culted similar logic into regoperin
and some (not all) of the other reg*in functions.  That is all
dead code too since we currently have no need to load such values
during bootstrap.  I removed it all, reasoning that if we ever
need such functionality it'd be much better to do it in a similar
way to this patch.

There might be some simplifications possible in the backend now that
regprocin doesn't require doing catalog reads so early in bootstrap.
I've not looked into that, though.

Tom Lane 16ebab6886 Avoid transferring parallel-unsafe subplans to parallel workers.
Commit 5e6d8d2bb allowed parallel workers to execute parallel-safe
subplans, but it transmitted the query's entire list of subplans to
the worker(s).  Since execMain.c blindly does ExecInitNode and later
ExecEndNode on every list element, this resulted in parallel-unsafe plan
nodes nonetheless getting started up and shut down in parallel workers.
That seems mostly harmless as far as core plan node types go (but
maybe not so much for Gather?).  But it resulted in postgres_fdw
opening and then closing extra remote connections, and it's likely
that other non-parallel-safe FDWs or custom scan providers would have
worse reactions.

To fix, just make ExecSerializePlan replace parallel-unsafe subplans
with NULLs in the cut-down plan tree that it transmits to workers.
This relies on ExecInitNode and ExecEndNode to do nothing on NULL
input, but they do anyway.  If anything else is touching the dropped
subplans in a parallel worker, that would be a bug to be fixed.
(This thus provides a strong guarantee that we won't try to do
something with a parallel-unsafe subplan in a worker.)

This is, I think, the last fix directly occasioned by Andreas Seltenreich's
bug report of a few days ago.

Tom Lane 003d80f3df Mark finished Plan nodes with parallel_safe flags.
We'd managed to avoid doing this so far, but it seems pretty obvious
that it would be forced on us some day, and this is much the cleanest
way of approaching the open problem that parallel-unsafe subplans are
being transmitted to parallel workers.  Anyway there's no space cost
due to alignment considerations, and the time cost is pretty minimal
since we're just copying the flag from the corresponding Path node.
(At least in most cases ... some of the klugier spots in createplan.c
have to work a bit harder.)

In principle we could perhaps get rid of SubPlan.parallel_safe,
but I thought it better to keep that in case there are reasons to
consider a SubPlan unsafe even when its child plan is parallel-safe.

This patch doesn't actually do anything with the new flags, but
I thought I'd commit it separately anyway.

Commit b460f5d669 failed to contemplate
the possibilit that a parallel worker registered before a crash would
be unregistered only after the crash; if that happened, we'd end up

system would refuse to launch any more parallel workers.

The easiest way to fix that seems to be to forget BGW_NEVER_RESTART
workers in ResetBackgroundWorkerCrashTimes() rather than leaving them
around to be cleaned up after the conclusion of the restart, so that
they go away before rather than after shared memory is reset.

To make sure that this fix is water-tight, don't allow parallel
workers to be anything other than BGW_NEVER_RESTART, so that after
recovering from a crash, 0 is guaranteed to be the correct starting

Peter Eisentraut 521fd4795e Use weaker locks when updating pg_subscription_rel
The previously used ShareRowExclusiveLock, while technically probably
more correct, led to deadlocks during seemingly unrelated operations and
thus a poor experience.  Use RowExclusiveLock, like for most similar
catalog operations.  In some care cases, the user might see an error
from DDL commands.

Tom Lane 8f0530f580 Improve castNode notation by introducing list-extraction-specific variants.
This extends the castNode() notation introduced by commit 5bcab1114 to
provide, in one step, extraction of a list cell's pointer and coercion to
a concrete node type.  For example, "lfirst_node(Foo, lc)" is the same
as "castNode(Foo, lfirst(lc))".  Almost half of the uses of castNode
that have appeared so far include a list extraction call, so this is
pretty widely useful, and it saves a few more keystrokes compared to the
old way.

As with the previous patch, back-patch the addition of these macros to
pg_list.h, so that the notation will be available when back-patching.

Patch by me, after an idea of Andrew Gierth's.

Tom Lane 511540dadf Move isolationtester's is-blocked query into C code for speed.
Commit 4deb41381 modified isolationtester's query to see whether a
session is blocked to also check for waits occurring in GetSafeSnapshot.
However, it did that in a way that enormously increased the query's
runtime under CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, causing the buildfarm members
that use that to run about four times slower than before, and in some
cases fail entirely.  To fix, push the entire logic into a dedicated
backend function.  This should actually reduce the CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS
runtime from what it was previously, though I've not checked that.

In passing, expose a SQL function to check for safe-snapshot blockage,
comparable to pg_blocking_pids.  This is more or less free given the
infrastructure built to solve the other problem, so we might as well.

Tom Lane 9c7f5229ad Optimize joins when the inner relation can be proven unique.
If there can certainly be no more than one matching inner row for a given
outer row, then the executor can move on to the next outer row as soon as
it's found one match; there's no need to continue scanning the inner
relation for this outer row.  This saves useless scanning in nestloop
and hash joins.  In merge joins, it offers the opportunity to skip
mark/restore processing, because we know we have not advanced past the
first possible match for the next outer row.

Of course, the devil is in the details: the proof of uniqueness must
depend only on joinquals (not otherquals), and if we want to skip
mergejoin mark/restore then it must depend only on merge clauses.
To avoid adding more planning overhead than absolutely necessary,
the present patch errs in the conservative direction: there are cases
where inner_unique or skip_mark_restore processing could be used, but
it will not do so because it's not sure that the uniqueness proof
depended only on "safe" clauses.  This could be improved later.

Tom Lane 89deca582a Fix planner error (or assert trap) with nested set operations.
As reported by Sean Johnston in bug #14614, since 9.6 the planner can fail
due to trying to look up the referent of a Var with varno 0.  This happens
because we generate such Vars in generate_append_tlist, for lack of any
better way to describe the output of a SetOp node.  In typical situations
nothing really cares about that, but given nested set-operation queries
we will call estimate_num_groups on the output of the subquery, and that
wants to know what a Var actually refers to.  That logic used to look at
subquery->targetList, but in commit 3fc6e2d7f I'd switched it to look at
subroot->processed_tlist, ie the actual output of the subquery plan not the
parser's idea of the result.  It seemed like a good idea at the time :-(.
As a band-aid fix, change it back.

Really we ought to have an honest way of naming the outputs of SetOp steps,
which suggests that it'd be a good idea for the parser to emit an RTE
corresponding to each one.  But that's a task for another day, and it
certainly wouldn't yield a back-patchable fix.

Heikki Linnakangas 60f11b87a2 Use SASLprep to normalize passwords for SCRAM authentication.
An important step of SASLprep normalization, is to convert the string to
Unicode normalization form NFKC. Unicode normalization requires a fairly
large table of character decompositions, which is generated from data
published by the Unicode consortium. The script to generate the table is
put in src/common/unicode, as well test code for the normalization.
A pre-generated version of the tables is included in src/include/common,
so you don't need the code in src/common/unicode to build PostgreSQL, only
if you wish to modify the normalization tables.

The SASLprep implementation depends on the UTF-8 functions from
src/backend/utils/mb/wchar.c. So to use it, you must also compile and link
that. That doesn't change anything for the current users of these
functions, the backend and libpq, as they both already link with wchar.o.
It would be good to move those functions into a separate file in
src/commmon, but I'll leave that for another day.

No documentation changes included, because there is no details on the
SCRAM mechanism in the docs anyway. An overview on that in the protocol
specification would probably be good, even though SCRAM is documented in
detail in RFC5802. I'll write that as a separate patch. An important thing
to mention there is that we apply SASLprep even on invalid UTF-8 strings,
to support other encodings.

Tom Lane 3f902354b0 Clean up after insufficiently-researched optimization of tuple conversions.
tupconvert.c's functions formerly considered that an explicit tuple
conversion was necessary if the input and output tupdescs contained
different type OIDs.  The point of that was to make sure that a composite
datum resulting from the conversion would contain the destination rowtype
OID in its composite-datum header.  However, commit 3838074f8 entirely
misunderstood what that check was for, thinking that it had something to do
with presence or absence of an OID column within the tuple.  Removal of the
check broke the no-op conversion path in ExecEvalConvertRowtype, as
reported by Ashutosh Bapat.

It turns out that of the dozen or so call sites for tupconvert.c functions,
ExecEvalConvertRowtype is the only one that cares about the composite-datum
header fields in the output tuple.  In all the rest, we'd much rather avoid
an unnecessary conversion whenever the tuples are physically compatible.
Moreover, the comments in tupconvert.c only promise physical compatibility
not a metadata match.  So, let's accept the removal of the guarantee about
the output tuple's rowtype marking, recognizing that this is a API change
that could conceivably break third-party callers of tupconvert.c.  (So,
let's remember to mention it in the v10 release notes.)

However, commit 3838074f8 did have a bit of a point here, in that two
tuples mustn't be considered physically compatible if one has HEAP_HASOID
set and the other doesn't.  (Some of the callers of tupconvert.c might not
really care about that, but we can't assume it in general.)  The previous
check accidentally covered that issue, because no RECORD types ever have
OIDs, while if two tupdescs have the same named composite type OID then,
a fortiori, they have the same tdhasoid setting.  If we're removing the
type OID match check then we'd better include tdhasoid match as part of
the physical compatibility check.

Without that hack in tupconvert.c, we need ExecEvalConvertRowtype to take
responsibility for inserting the correct rowtype OID label whenever
tupconvert.c decides it need not do anything.  This is easily done with
heap_copy_tuple_as_datum, which will be considerably faster than a tuple
disassembly and reassembly anyway; so from a performance standpoint this
change is a win all around compared to what happened in earlier branches.
It just means a couple more lines of code in ExecEvalConvertRowtype.

Andres Freund fa117ee403 Allow avoiding tuple copy within tuplesort_gettupleslot().
Add a "copy" argument to make it optional to receive a copy of caller
tuple that is safe to use following a subsequent manipulating of
tuplesort's state.  This is a performance optimization.  Most existing
tuplesort_gettupleslot() callers are made to opt out of copying.
Existing callers that happen to rely on the validity of tuple memory
beyond subsequent manipulations of the tuplesort request their own
copy.

This brings tuplesort_gettupleslot() in line with
tuplestore_gettupleslot().  In the future, a "copy"
tuplesort_getdatum() argument may be added, that similarly allows
callers to opt out of receiving their own copy of tuple.

In passing, clarify assumptions that callers of other tuplesort fetch
routines may make about tuple memory validity, per gripe from Tom
Lane.

To fix that, use pq_sendcountedtext() for sending tuple attributes,
