Alexander Korotkov	e85662df44	Fix false reports in pg_visibility Currently, pg_visibility computes its xid horizon using the GetOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). The problem is that this horizon can sometimes go backward. That can lead to reporting false errors. In order to fix that, this commit implements a new function GetStrictOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). This function computes the xid horizon, which would be guaranteed to be newer or equal to any xid horizon computed before. We have to do the following to achieve this. 1. Ignore processes xmin's, because they consider connection to other databases that were ignored before. 2. Ignore KnownAssignedXids, because they are not database-aware. At the same time, the primary could compute its horizons database-aware. 3. Ignore walsender xmin, because it could go backward if some replication connections don't use replication slots. As a result, we're using only currently running xids to compute the horizon. Surely these would significantly sacrifice accuracy. But we have to do so to avoid reporting false errors. Inspired by earlier patch by Daniel Shelepanov and the following discussion with Robert Haas and Tom Lane.

Andres Freund	01368e5d9d	Split all OBJS style lines in makefiles into one-line-per-entry style. When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those conflicts are unnecessarily laborious to resolve. By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one object per line, conflicts should be less frequent, and easier to resolve when they still occur.

Simon Riggs	25fff40798	Default monitoring roles Three nologin roles with non-overlapping privs are created by default * pg_read_all_settings - read all GUCs. * pg_read_all_stats - pg_stat_, pg_database_size(), pg_tablespace_size() pg_stat_scan_tables - may lock/scan tables Top level role - pg_monitor includes all of the above by default, plus others Author: Dave Page Reviewed-by: Stephen Frost, Robert Haas, Peter Eisentraut, Simon Riggs	9 years ago
Stephen Frost	c08d82f38e	Add relkind checks to certain contrib modules The contrib extensions pageinspect, pg_visibility and pgstattuple only work against regular relations which have storage. They don't work against foreign tables, partitioned (parent) tables, views, et al. Add checks to the user-callable functions to return a useful error message to the user if they mistakenly pass an invalid relation to a function which doesn't accept that kind of relation. In passing, improve some of the existing checks to use ereport() instead of elog(), add a function to consolidate common checks where appropriate, and add some regression tests.

Robert Haas	e472ce9624	Add integrity-checking functions to pg_visibility. The new pg_check_visible() and pg_check_frozen() functions can be used to verify that the visibility map bits for a relation's data pages match the actual state of the tuples on those pages. Amit Kapila and Robert Haas, reviewed (in earlier versions) by Andres Freund. Additional testing help by Thomas Munro.	9 years ago
Robert Haas	ba0a198fb1	Add pg_visibility contrib module. This lets you examine the visibility map as well as page-level visibility information. I initially wrote it as a debugging aid, but was encouraged to polish it for commit. Patch by me, reviewed by Masahiko Sawada. Discussion: 56D77803.6080503@BlueTreble.com	10 years ago
