Fujii Masao	8a010df41e	doc: Remove incorrect note about wal_status in pg_replication_slots. The documentation previously stated that the wal_status column is NULL if restart_lsn is NULL in the pg_replication_slots view. This is incorrect, and wal_status can be "lost" even when restart_lsn is NULL. This commit removes the incorrect description. Back-patched to all supported versions.

Michael Paquier	d44efe87ea	Fix bug in archive streamer with LZ4 decompression When decompressing some input data, the calculation for the initial starting point and the initial size were incorrect, potentially leading to failures when decompressing contents with LZ4. These initialization points are fixed in this commit, bringing the logic closer to what exists for gzip and zstd. The contents of the compressed data is clear (for example backups taken with LZ4 can still be decompressed with a "lz4" command), only the decompression part reading the input data was impacted by this issue. This code path impacts pg_basebackup and pg_verifybackup, which can use the LZ4 decompression routines with an archive streamer, or any tools that try to use the archive streamers in src/fe_utils/. The issue is easier to reproduce with files that have a low-compression rate, like ones filled with random data, for a size of at least 512kB, but this could happen with anything as long as it is stored in a data folder. Some tests are added based on this idea, with a file filled with random bytes grabbed from the backend, written at the root of the data folder. This is proving good enough to reproduce the original problem.

Tom Lane	614ffb26d1	Obtain required table lock during cross-table constraint updates. Sometimes a table's constraint may depend on a column of another table, so that we have to update the constraint when changing the referenced column's type. We need to have lock on the constraint's table to do that. ATPostAlterTypeCleanup believed that this case was only possible for FOREIGN KEY constraints, but it's wrong at least for CHECK and EXCLUDE constraints; and in general, we'd probably need exclusive lock to alter any sort of constraint. So just remove the contype check and acquire lock for any other table. This prevents a "you don't have lock" assertion failure, though no ill effect is observed in production builds. We'll error out later anyway because we don't presently support physically altering column types within stored composite columns. But the catalog-munging is basically all there, so we may as well make that part work.

Michael Paquier	354944663d	Avoid scribbling of VACUUM options This fixes two issues with the handling of VacuumParams in vacuum_rel(). This code path has the idea to change the passed-in pointer of VacuumParams for the "truncate" and "index_cleanup" options for the relation worked on, impacting the two following scenarios where incorrect options may be used because a VacuumParams pointer is shared across multiple relations: - Multiple relations in a single VACUUM command. - TOAST relations vacuumed with their main relation. The problem is avoided by providing to the two callers of vacuum_rel() copies of VacuumParams, before the pointer is updated for the "truncate" and "index_cleanup" options. The refactoring of the VACUUM option and parameters done in `0d83138974` did not introduce an issue, but it has encouraged the problem we are dealing with in this commit, with `b84dbc8eb8` for "truncate" and `a96c41feec` for "index_cleanup" that have been added a couple of years after the initial refactoring. HEAD will be improved with a different patch that hardens the uses of VacuumParams across the tree. This cannot be backpatched as it introduces an ABI breakage. The backend portion of the patch has been authored by Nathan, while I have implemented the tests. The tests rely on injection points to check the option values, making them faster, more reliable than the tests originally proposed by Shihao, and they also provide more coverage. This part can only be backpatched down to v17.

Tom Lane	75b8982eae	Use SnapshotDirty when checking for conflicting index names. While choosing an autogenerated name for an index, look for pre-existing relations using a SnapshotDirty snapshot, instead of the previous behavior that considered only committed-good pg_class rows. This allows us to detect and avoid conflicts against indexes that are still being built. It's still possible to fail due to a race condition, but the window is now just the amount of time that it takes DefineIndex to validate all its parameters, call smgrcreate(), and enter the index's pg_class row. Formerly the race window covered the entire time needed to create and fill an index, which could be very long if the table is large. Worse, if the conflicting index creation is part of a larger transaction, it wouldn't be visible till COMMIT. So this isn't a complete solution, but it should greatly ameliorate the problem, and the patch is simple enough to be back-patchable. It might at some point be useful to do the same for pg_constraint entries (cf. ChooseConstraintName, ConstraintNameExists, and related functions). However, in the absence of field complaints, I'll leave that alone for now. The relation-name test should be good enough for index-based constraints, while foreign-key constraints seem to be okay since they require exclusive locks to create.

Masahiko Sawada	fc0fb77c55	Fix re-distributing previously distributed invalidation messages during logical decoding. Commit `4909b38af0` introduced logic to distribute invalidation messages from catalog-modifying transactions to all concurrent in-progress transactions. However, since each transaction distributes not only its original invalidation messages but also previously distributed messages to other transactions, this leads to an exponential increase in allocation request size for invalidation messages, ultimately causing memory allocation failure. This commit fixes this issue by tracking distributed invalidation messages separately per decoded transaction and not redistributing these messages to other in-progress transactions. The maximum size of distributed invalidation messages that one transaction can store is limited to MAX_DISTR_INVAL_MSG_PER_TXN (8MB). Once the size of the distributed invalidation messages exceeds this threshold, we invalidate all caches in locations where distributed invalidation messages need to be executed. Back-patch to all supported versions where we introduced the fix by commit `4909b38af0`. Note that this commit adds two new fields to ReorderBufferTXN to store the distributed transactions. This change breaks ABI compatibility in back branches, affecting third-party extensions that depend on the size of the ReorderBufferTXN struct, though this scenario seems unlikely. Additionally, it adds a new flag to the txn_flags field of ReorderBufferTXN to indicate distributed invalidation message overflow. This should not affect existing implementations, as it is unlikely that third-party extensions use unused bits in the txn_flags field.

Alexander Korotkov	dd9bc1a17d	Keep WAL segments by the flushed value of the slot's restart LSN The patch fixes the issue with the unexpected removal of old WAL segments after checkpoint, followed by an immediate restart. The issue occurs when a slot is advanced after the start of the checkpoint and before old WAL segments are removed at the end of the checkpoint. The idea of the patch is to get the minimal restart_lsn at the beginning of checkpoint (or restart point) creation and use this value when calculating the oldest LSN for WAL segments removal at the end of checkpoint. This idea was proposed by Tomas Vondra in the discussion. Unlike 291221c46575, this fix doesn't affect ABI and is intended for back branches.

Peter Geoghegan	d2ec671092	Make _bt_killitems drop pins it acquired itself. Teach nbtree's _bt_killitems to leave the so->currPos page that it sets LP_DEAD items on in whatever state it was in when _bt_killitems was called. In particular, make sure that so->dropPin scans don't acquire a pin whose reference is saved in so->currPos.buf. Allowing _bt_killitems to change so->currPos.buf like this is wrong. The immediate consequence of allowing it is that code in _bt_steppage (that copies so->currPos into so->markPos) will behave as if the scan is a !so->dropPin scan. so->markPos will therefore retain the buffer pin indefinitely, even though _bt_killitems only needs to acquire a pin (along with a lock) for long enough to mark known-dead items LP_DEAD. This issue came to light following a report of a failure of an assertion from recent commit `e6eed40e`. The test case in question involves the use of mark and restore. An initial call to _bt_killitems takes place that leaves so->currPos.buf in a state that is inconsistent with the scan being so->dropPin. A subsequent call to _bt_killitems for the same position (following so->currPos being saved in so->markPos, and then restored as so->currPos) resulted in the failure of an assertion that tests that so->currPos.buf is InvalidBuffer when the scan is so->dropPin (non-assert builds got a "resource was not closed" WARNING instead). The same problem exists on earlier releases, though the issue is far more subtle there. Recent commit `e6eed40e` introduced the so->dropPin field as a partial replacement for testing so->currPos.buf directly. Earlier releases won't get an assertion failure (or buffer pin leak), but they will allow the second _bt_killitems call from the test case to behave as if a buffer pin was consistently held since the original call to _bt_readpage. This is wrong; there will have been an initial window during which no pin was held on the so->currPos page, and yet the second _bt_killitems call will neglect to check if so->currPos.lsn continues to match the page's now-current LSN. As a result of all this, it's just about possible that _bt_killitems will set the wrong items LP_DEAD (on release branches). This could only happen with merge joins (the sole user of nbtree mark/restore support), when a concurrently inserted index tuple used a recently-recycled TID (and only when the new tuple was inserted onto the same page as a distinct concurrently-removed tuple with the same TID). This is exactly the scenario that _bt_killitems' check of the page's now-current LSN against the LSN stashed in currPos was supposed to prevent. A follow-up commit will make nbtree completely stop conditioning whether or not a position's pin needs to be dropped on whether the 'buf' field is set. All call sites that might need to drop a still-held pin will be taught to rely on the scan-level so->dropPin field recently introduced by commit `e6eed40e`. That will make bugs of the same general nature as this one impossible (or make them much easier to detect, at least).

Tom Lane	6a4d93edad	Don't reduce output request size on non-Unix-socket connections. Traditionally, libpq's pqPutMsgEnd has rounded down the amount-to-send to be a multiple of 8K when it is eagerly writing some data. This still seems like a good idea when sending through a Unix socket, as pipes typically have a buffer size of 8K or some fraction/multiple of that. But there's not much argument for it on a TCP connection, since (a) standard MTU values are not commensurate with that, and (b) the kernel typically applies its own packet splitting/merging logic. Worse, our SSL and GSSAPI code paths both have API stipulations that if they fail to send all the data that was offered in the previous write attempt, we mustn't offer less data in the next attempt; else we may get "SSL error: bad length" or "GSSAPI caller failed to retransmit all data needing to be retried". The previous write attempt might've been pqFlush attempting to send everything in the buffer, so pqPutMsgEnd can't safely write less than the full buffer contents. (Well, we could add some more state to track exactly how much the previous write attempt was, but there's little value evident in such extra complication.) Hence, apply the round-down only on AF_UNIX sockets, where we never use SSL or GSSAPI. Interestingly, we had a very closely related bug report before, which I attempted to fix in commit `d053a879b`. But the test case we had then seemingly didn't trigger this pqFlush-then-pqPutMsgEnd scenario, or at least we failed to recognize this variant of the bug.

We can improve matters by rejecting names containing "=" up-front.

Tom Lane	b56a92651a	Fix edge-case resource leaks in PL/Python error reporting. PLy_elog_impl and its subroutine PLy_traceback intended to avoid leaking any PyObject reference counts, but their coverage of the matter was sadly incomplete. In particular, out-of-memory errors in most of the string-construction subroutines could lead to reference count leaks, because those calls were outside the PG_TRY blocks responsible for dropping reference counts. Fix by (a) adjusting the scopes of the PG_TRY blocks, and (b) moving the responsibility for releasing the reference counts of the traceback-stack objects to PLy_elog_impl. This requires some additional "volatile" markers, but not too many. In passing, fix an ancient thinko: use of the "e_module_o" PyObject was guarded by "if (e_type_s)", where surely "if (e_module_o)" was meant. This would only have visible consequences if the "__name__" attribute were present but the "__module__" attribute wasn't, which apparently never happens; but someday it might. Rearranging the PG_TRY blocks requires indenting a fair amount of code one more tab stop, which I'll do separately for clarity.

Dean Rasheed	d6a3f3272f	Fix MERGE into a plain inheritance parent table. When a MERGE's target table is the parent of an inheritance tree, any INSERT actions insert into the parent table using ModifyTableState's rootResultRelInfo. However, there are two bugs in the way this is initialized: 1. ExecInitMerge() incorrectly uses a different ResultRelInfo entry from ModifyTableState's resultRelInfo array to build the insert projection, which may not be compatible with rootResultRelInfo. 2. ExecInitModifyTable() does not fully initialize rootResultRelInfo. Specifically, ri_WithCheckOptions, ri_WithCheckOptionExprs, ri_returningList, and ri_projectReturning are not initialized. This can lead to crashes, or incorrect query results due to failing to check WCO's or process the RETURNING list for INSERT actions. Fix both these bugs in ExecInitMerge(), noting that it is only necessary to fully initialize rootResultRelInfo if the MERGE has INSERT actions and the target table is a plain inheritance parent.

Nathan Bossart	ddfcfb7cec	Ensure we have a snapshot when updating various system catalogs. A few places that access system catalogs don't set up an active snapshot before potentially accessing their TOAST tables. To fix, push an active snapshot just before each section of code that might require accessing one of these TOAST tables, and pop it shortly afterwards. While at it, this commit adds some rather strict assertions in an attempt to prevent such issues in the future. Commit `16bf24e0e4` recently removed pg_replication_origin's TOAST table in order to fix the same problem for that catalog. On the back-branches, those bugs are left in place. We cannot easily remove a catalog's TOAST table on released major versions, and only replication origins with extremely long names are affected. Given the low severity of the issue, fixing older versions doesn't seem worth the trouble of significantly modifying the patch.

Tom Lane	3c31594f55	Fix memory leakage in postgres_fdw's DirectModify code path. postgres_fdw tries to use PG_TRY blocks to ensure that it will eventually free the PGresult created by the remote modify command. However, it's fundamentally impossible for this scheme to work reliably when there's RETURNING data, because the query could fail in between invocations of postgres_fdw's DirectModify methods. There is at least one instance of exactly this situation in the regression tests, and the ensuing session-lifespan leak is visible under Valgrind. We can improve matters by using a memory context reset callback attached to the ExecutorState context. That ensures that the PGresult will be freed when the ExecutorState context is torn down, even if control never reaches postgresEndDirectModify. I have little faith that there aren't other potential PGresult leakages in the backend modules that use libpq. So I think it'd be a good idea to apply this concept universally by creating infrastructure that attaches a reset callback to every PGresult generated in the backend. However, that seems too invasive for v18 at this point, let alone the back branches. So for the moment, apply this narrow fix that just makes DirectModify safe. I have a patch in the queue for the more general idea, but it will have to wait for v19.

Tom Lane	39b1d19071	Allow larger packets during GSSAPI authentication exchange. Our GSSAPI code only allows packet sizes up to 16kB. However it emerges that during authentication, larger packets might be needed; various authorities suggest 48kB or 64kB as the maximum packet size. This limitation caused login failure for AD users who belong to many AD groups. To add insult to injury, we gave an unintelligible error message, typically "GSSAPI context establishment error: The routine must be called again to complete its function: Unknown error". As noted in code comments, the 16kB packet limit is effectively a protocol constant once we are doing normal data transmission: the GSSAPI code splits the data stream at those points, and if we change the limit then we will have cross-version compatibility problems due to the receiver's buffer being too small in some combinations. However, during the authentication exchange the packet sizes are not determined by us, but by the underlying GSSAPI library. So we might as well just try to send what the library tells us to. An unpatched recipient will fail on a packet larger than 16kB, but that's not worse than the sender failing without even trying. So this doesn't introduce any meaningful compatibility problem. We still need a buffer size limit, but we can easily make it be 64kB rather than 16kB until transport negotiation is complete. (Larger values were discussed, but don't seem likely to add anything.)

Fujii Masao	405cca9daa	Make XactLockTableWait() and ConditionalXactLockTableWait() interruptable more. Previously, XactLockTableWait() and ConditionalXactLockTableWait() could enter a non-interruptible loop when they successfully acquired a lock on a transaction but the transaction still appeared to be running. Since this loop continued until the transaction completed, it could result in long, uninterruptible waits. Although this scenario is generally unlikely since XactLockTableWait() and ConditionalXactLockTableWait() can basically acquire a transaction lock only when the transaction is not running, it can occur in a hot standby. In such cases, the transaction may still appear active due to the KnownAssignedXids list, even while no lock on the transaction exists. For example, this situation can happen when creating a logical replication slot on a standby. The cause of the non-interruptible loop was the absence of CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() within it. This commit adds CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to the loop in both functions, ensuring they can be interrupted safely. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Álvaro Herrera	4620cd9c1c	Fix broken-FK-detection query in release notes Commits `53af9491a0` and `2d5fe51405` fixed a number of problems with foreign keys that reference partitioned tables, and a query to detect already broken FKs was supplied with the release notes for 17.1, 16.5, 15.9, 14.14, 13.17.

Tom Lane	09c9ae8f6d	Avoid resource leaks when a dblink connection fails. If we hit out-of-memory between creating the PGconn and inserting it into dblink's hashtable, we'd lose track of the PGconn, which is quite bad since it represents a live connection to a remote DB. Fix by rearranging things so that we create the hashtable entry first. Also reduce the number of states we have to deal with by getting rid of the separately-allocated remoteConn object, instead allocating it in-line in the hashtable entries. (That incidentally removes a session-lifespan memory leak observed in the regression tests.) There is an apparently-irreducible remaining OOM hazard, which is that if the connection fails at the libpq level (ie it's CONNECTION_BAD) then we have to pstrdup the PGconn's error message before we can release it, and theoretically that could fail. However, in such cases we're only leaking memory not a live remote connection, so I'm not convinced that it's worth sweating over. This is a pretty low-probability failure mode of course, but losing a live connection seems bad enough to justify back-patching.

Michael Paquier	130300a154	pg_stat_statements: Fix parameter number gaps in normalized queries pg_stat_statements anticipates that certain constant locations may be recorded multiple times and attempts to avoid calculating a length for these locations in fill_in_constant_lengths(). However, during generate_normalized_query() where normalized query strings are generated, these locations are not excluded from consideration. This could increment the parameter number counter for every recorded occurrence at such a location, leading to an incorrect normalization in certain cases with gaps in the numbers reported. For example, take this query: SELECT WHERE '1' IN ('2'::int, '3'::int::text) Before this commit, it would be normalized like that, with gaps in the parameter numbers: SELECT WHERE $1 IN ($3::int, $4::int::text) However the correct, less confusing one should be like that: SELECT WHERE $1 IN ($2::int, $3::int::text) This commit fixes the computation of the parameter numbers to track the number of constants replaced with an $n by a separate counter instead of the iterator used to loop through the list of locations. The underlying query IDs are not changed, neither are the normalized strings for existing PGSS hash entries. New entries with fresh normalized queries would automatically get reshaped based on the new parameter numbering. Issue discovered while discussing a separate problem for HEAD, but this affects all the stable branches.

Fujii Masao	0f29022e05	doc: Fix documenation for snapshot export in logical decoding.

This is no longer accurate, as snapshot exporting on standbys has been supported since PostgreSQL 10. This commit removes the outdated description. Additionally, the docs referred to the NOEXPORT_SNAPSHOT option to suppress snapshot exporting in CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT.

PgStat_StatTabEntry and AutoVacOpts structs were leaked until the end of the autovacuum worker's run, which is bad news if there are a lot of relations in the database.

Fujii Masao	0e0174b497	Fix incorrect WAL description for PREPARE TRANSACTION record. Since commit `8b1dccd37c`, the PREPARE TRANSACTION WAL record includes information about dropped statistics entries. However, the WAL resource manager description function for PREPARE TRANSACTION record failed to parse this information correctly and always assumed there were no such entries. As a result, for example, pg_waldump could not display the dropped statistics entries stored in PREPARE TRANSACTION records. The root cause was that ParsePrepareRecord() did not set the number of statistics entries to drop on commit or abort. These values remained zero-initialized and were never updated from the parsed record. This commit fixes the issue by properly setting those values during parsing. With this fix, pg_waldump can now correctly report dropped statistics entries in PREPARE TRANSACTION records. Back-patch to v15, where commit `8b1dccd37c` was introduced.

Tom Lane	00652b3c9f	Make our usage of memset_s() conform strictly to the C11 standard. Per the letter of the C11 standard, one must #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ as 1 before including <string.h> in order to have access to memset_s(). It appears that many platforms are lenient about this, because we weren't doing it and yet the code appeared to work anyway. But we now find that with -std=c11, macOS is strict and doesn't declare memset_s, leading to compile failures since we try to use it anyway. (Given the lack of prior reports, perhaps this is new behavior in the latest SDK? No matter, we're clearly in the wrong.) In addition to the immediate problem, which could be fixed merely by adding the needed #define to explicit_bzero.c, it seems possible that our configure-time probe for memset_s() could fail in case a platform implements the function in some odd way due to this spec requirement. This concern can be fixed in largely the same way that we dealt with strchrnul() in 6da2ba1d8: switch to using a declaration-based configure probe instead of a does-it-link probe.
