Tom Lane	6a33bb35c0	Avoid integer overflow while testing wal_skip_threshold condition. ... smgrDoPendingSyncs had two distinct risks of integer overflow while deciding which way to ensure durability of a newly-created relation. First, it accumulated the total size of all forks in a variable of type BlockNumber (uint32). While we restrict an individual fork's size to fit in that, I don't believe there's such a restriction on all of them added together. Second, it proceeded to multiply the sum by BLCKSZ, which most certainly could overflow a uint32. (The exact expression is total_blocks * BLCKSZ / 1024. The compiler might choose to optimize that to total_blocks * 8, which is not at quite as much risk of overflow as a literal reading would be, but it's still wrong.) If an overflow did occur it could lead to a poor choice to shove a very large relation into WAL instead of fsync'ing it. This wouldn't be fatal, but it could be inefficient. Change total_blocks to uint64 which should be plenty, and rearrange the comparison calculation to be overflow-safe. I noticed this while looking for ramifications of the proposed change in MAX_KILOBYTES. It's not entirely clear to me why wal_skip_threshold is limited to MAX_KILOBYTES in the first place, but in any case this code is unsafe regardless of the range of wal_skip_threshold. Oversight in c6b92041d which introduced wal_skip_threshold, so back-patch to v13. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1a01f0-66ec2d80-3b-68487680@27595217 Backpatch-through: 13	11 months ago
Tom Lane	c05268e6ec	Handle default NULL insertion a little better. ... If a column is omitted in an INSERT, and there's no column default, the code in preptlist.c generates a NULL Const to be inserted. Furthermore, if the column is of a domain type, we wrap the Const in CoerceToDomain, so as to throw a run-time error if the domain has a NOT NULL constraint. That's fine as far as it goes, but there are two problems: 1. We're being sloppy about the type/typmod that the Const is labeled with. It really should have the domain's base type/typmod, since it's the input to CoerceToDomain not the output. This can result in coerce_to_domain inserting a useless length-coercion function (useless because it's being applied to a null). The coercion would typically get const-folded away later, but it'd be better not to create it in the first place. 2. We're not applying expression preprocessing (specifically, eval_const_expressions) to the resulting expression tree. The planner's primary expression-preprocessing pass already happened, so that means the length coercion step and CoerceToDomain node miss preprocessing altogether. This is at the least inefficient, since it means the length coercion and CoerceToDomain will actually be executed for each inserted row, though they could be const-folded away in most cases. Worse, it seems possible that missing preprocessing for the length coercion could result in an invalid plan (for example, due to failing to perform default-function-argument insertion). I'm not aware of any live bug of that sort with core datatypes, and it might be unreachable for extension types as well because of restrictions of CREATE CAST, but I'm not entirely convinced that it's unreachable. Hence, it seems worth back-patching the fix (although I only went back to v14, as the patch doesn't apply cleanly at all in v13). There are several places in the rewriter that are building null domain constants the same way as preptlist.c. While those are before the planner and hence don't have any reachable bug, they're still applying a length coercion that will be const-folded away later, uselessly wasting cycles. Hence, make a utility routine that all of these places can call to do it right. Making this code more careful about the typmod assigned to the generated NULL constant has visible but cosmetic effects on some of the plans shown in contrib/postgres_fdw's regression tests.

Tom Lane	54f9afea7a	Avoid breaking SJIS encoding while de-backslashing Windows paths. ... When running on Windows, canonicalize_path() converts '\' to '/' to prevent confusing the Windows command processor. It was doing that in a non-encoding-aware fashion; but in SJIS there are valid two-byte characters whose second byte matches '\'. So encoding corruption ensues if such a character is used in the path. We can fairly easily fix this if we know which encoding is in use, but a lot of our utilities don't have much of a clue about that. After some discussion we decided we'd settle for fixing this only in psql, and assuming that its value of client_encoding matches what the user is typing. It seems hopeless to get the server to deal with the problematic characters in database path names, so we'll just declare that case to be unsupported. That means nothing need be done in the server, nor in utility programs whose only contact with file path names is for database paths. But psql frequently deals with client-side file paths, so it'd be good if it didn't mess those up.

Tom Lane	3085993052	Repair incorrect handling of AfterTriggerSharedData.ats_modifiedcols. ... This patch fixes two distinct errors that both ultimately trace to commit 71d60e2aa, which added the ats_modifiedcols field. The more severe error is that ats_modifiedcols wasn't accounted for in afterTriggerAddEvent's scanning loop that looks for a pre-existing duplicate AfterTriggerSharedData. Thus, a new event could be incorrectly matched to an AfterTriggerSharedData that has a different value of ats_modifiedcols, resulting in the wrong tg_updatedcols bitmap getting passed to the trigger whenever it finally gets fired. We'd not noticed because (a) few triggers consult tg_updatedcols, and (b) we had no tests exercising a case where such a trigger was called as an AFTER trigger. In the test case added by this commit, contrib/lo's trigger fails to remove a large object when expected because (without this fix) it thinks the LO OID column hasn't changed. The other problem was introduced by commit ce5aaea8c, which copied the modified-columns bitmap into trigger-related storage. It made a copy for every trigger event, whereas what we really want is to make a new copy only when we make a new AfterTriggerSharedData entry. (We could imagine adding extra logic to reduce the number of bitmap copies still more, but it doesn't look worthwhile at the moment.) In a simple test of an UPDATE of 10000000 rows with a single AFTER trigger, this thinko roughly tripled the amount of memory consumed by the pending-triggers data structures, from 160446744 to 480443440 bytes. Fixing the first problem requires introducing a bms_equal() call into afterTriggerAddEvent's scanning loop, which is slightly annoying from a speed perspective. However, getting rid of the excessive bms_copy() calls from the second problem balances that out; overall speed of trigger operations is the same or slightly better, in my tests.

Tom Lane	aac0384975	Avoid using timezone Asia/Manila in regression tests. ... The freshly-released 2025a version of tzdata has a refined estimate for the longitude of Manila, changing their value for LMT in pre-standardized-timezone days. This changes the output of one of our test cases. Since we need to be able to run with system tzdata files that may or may not contain this update, we'd better stop making that specific test. I switched it to use Asia/Singapore, which has a roughly similar UTC offset. That LMT value hasn't changed in tzdb since 2003, so we can hope that it's well established. I also noticed that this set of make_timestamptz tests only exercises zones east of Greenwich, which seems rather sad, and was not the original intent AFAICS. (We've already changed these tests once to stabilize their results across tzdata updates, cf 66b737cd9; it looks like I failed to consider the UTC-offset-sign aspect then.) To improve that, add a test with Pacific/Honolulu. That LMT offset is also quite old in tzdb, so we'll cross our fingers that it doesn't get improved.

Michael Paquier	a2d4f806c4	Fix header check for continuation records where standbys could be stuck ... XLogPageRead() checks immediately for an invalid WAL record header on a standby, to be able to handle the case of continuation records that need to be read across two different sources. As written, the check was too generic, applying to any target LSN. Based on an analysis by Kyotaro Horiguchi, what really matters is to make sure that the page header is checked when attempting to read a LSN at the boundary of a segment, to handle the case of a continuation record that spawns across multiple pages when dealing with multiple segments, as WAL receivers are spawned they request WAL from the beginning of a segment. This fix has been proposed by Kyotaro Horiguchi. This could cause standbys to loop infinitely when dealing with a continuation record during a timeline jump, in the case where the contents of the record in the follow-up page are invalid. Some regression tests are added to check such scenarios, able to reproduce the original problem. In the test, the contents of a continuation record are overwritten with junk zeros on its follow-up page, and replayed on standbys. This is inspired by 039_end_of_wal.pl, and is enough to show how standbys should react on promotion by not being stuck. Without the fix, the test would fail with a timeout. The test to reproduce the problem has been written by Alexander Kukushkin. The original check has been introduced in 0668719801, for a similar problem.

Thomas Munro	f4fd5325cc	Fix readlink() for non-PostgreSQL junction points on Windows. ... Since commit c5cb8f3b taught stat() to follow symlinks, and since initdb uses pg_mkdir_p(), and that examines parent directories, our humble readlink() implementation can now be exposed to junction points not of PostgreSQL origin. Those might be corrupted by our naive path mangling, which doesn't really understand NT paths in general. Simply decline to transform paths that don't look like a drive absolute path. That means that readlink() returns the NT path directly when checking a parent directory of PGDATA that happen to point to a drive using "rooted" format. That works for the purposes of our stat() emulation.

This commit reverts 8f67f994e8 (down to v13) and c3de0f9eed (down to v17), as these are proving to not be completely correct regarding two aspects: - In v17 and newer branches, c3de0f9eed38's check for epoch handling is incorrect, and does not correctly handle frozen epochs. A logic closer to widen_snapshot_xid() should be used. The 2PC code should try to integrate deeper with FullTransactionIds, 5a1dfde833 being not enough. - In v13 and newer branches, 8f67f994e8 is a workaround for the real issue, which is that we should not attempt CLOG lookups without reaching consistency.

Tom Lane	02e69313ad	Avoid symbol collisions between pqsignal.c and legacy-pqsignal.c. ... In the name of ABI stability (that is, to avoid a library major version bump for libpq), libpq still exports a version of pqsignal() that we no longer want to use ourselves. However, since that has the same link name as the function exported by src/port/pqsignal.c, there is a link ordering dependency determining which version will actually get used by code that uses libpq as well as libpgport.a. It now emerges that the wrong version has been used by pgbench and psql since commit 06843df4a rearranged their link commands. This can result in odd failures in pgbench with the -T switch, since its SIGALRM handler will now not be marked SA_RESTART. psql may have some edge-case problems in \watch, too. Since we don't want to depend on link ordering effects anymore, let's fix this in the same spirit as b6c7cfac8: use macros to change the actual link names of the competing functions. We cannot change legacy-pqsignal.c's exported name of course, so the victim has to be src/port/pqsignal.c. In master, rename its exported name to be pqsignal_fe in frontend or pqsignal_be in backend. (We could perhaps have gotten away with using the same symbol in both cases, but since the FE and BE versions now work a little differently, it seems advisable to use different names.) In back branches, rename to pqsignal_fe in frontend but keep it as pqsignal in backend. The frontend change could affect third-party code that is calling pqsignal from libpgport.a or libpgport_shlib.a, but only if the code is compiled against port.h from a different minor release than libpgport. Since we don't support using libpgport as a shared library, it seems unlikely that there will be such a problem. I left the backend symbol unchanged to avoid an ABI break for extensions. This means that the link ordering hazard still exists for any extension that links against libpq. However, none of our own extensions use both pqsignal() and libpq, and we're not making things any worse for third-party extensions that do.

Michael Paquier	c53d90bb47	Fix memory leak in pgoutput with relation attribute map ... pgoutput caches the attribute map of a relation, that is free()'d only when validating a RelationSyncEntry.

The relation attribute map is stored in a dedicated memory context, tracked with a static variable whose state is reset with a MemoryContext reset callback attached to PGOutputData->context.

Michael Paquier	58626e24a9	Fix handling of orphaned 2PC files in the future at recovery ... Before 728bd991c3, that has improved the support for 2PC files during recovery, the initial logic scanning files in pg_twophase was done so as files in the future of the transaction ID horizon were checked first, followed by a check if a transaction ID is aborted or committed which could involve a pg_xact lookup. After this commit, these checks have been done in reverse order. Files detected as in the future do not have a state that can be checked in pg_xact, hence this caused recovery to fail abruptly should an orphaned 2PC file in the future of the transaction ID horizon exist in pg_twophase at the beginning of recovery. A test is added to check for this scenario, using an empty 2PC with a transaction ID large enough to be in the future when running the test. This test is added in 16 and older versions for now. 17 and newer versions are impacted by a second bug caused by the addition of the epoch in the 2PC file names. An equivalent test will be added in these branches in a follow-up commit, once the second set of issues reported are fixed.

Tom Lane	c58b0c43d3	Exclude parallel workers from connection privilege/limit checks. ... Cause parallel workers to not check datallowconn, rolcanlogin, and ACL_CONNECT privileges. The leader already checked these things (except for rolcanlogin which might have been checked for a different role). Re-checking can accomplish little except to induce unexpected failures in applications that might not even be aware that their query has been parallelized. We already had the principle that parallel workers rely on their leader to pass a valid set of authorization information, so this change just extends that a bit further. Also, modify the ReservedConnections, datconnlimit and rolconnlimit logic so that these limits are only enforced against regular backends, and only regular backends are counted while checking if the limits were already reached. Previously, background processes that had an assigned database or role were subject to these limits (with rather random exclusions for autovac workers and walsenders), and the set of existing processes that counted against each limit was quite haphazard as well. The point of these limits, AFAICS, is to ensure the availability of PGPROC slots for regular backends. Since all other types of processes have their own separate pools of PGPROC slots, it makes no sense either to enforce these limits against them or to count them while enforcing the limit. While edge-case failures of these sorts have been possible for a long time, the problem got a good deal worse with commit 5a2fed911 (CVE-2024-10978), which caused parallel workers to make some of these checks using the leader's current role where before we had used its AuthenticatedUserId, thus allowing parallel queries to fail after SET ROLE. The previous behavior was fairly accidental and I have no desire to return to it. This patch includes reverting 73c9f91a1, which was an emergency hack to suppress these same checks in some cases. It wasn't complete, as shown by a recent bug report from Laurenz Albe. We can also revert fd4d93d26 and 492217301, which hacked around the same problems in one regression test. In passing, remove the special case for autovac workers in CheckMyDatabase; it seems cleaner to have AutoVacWorkerMain pass the INIT_PG_OVERRIDE_ALLOW_CONNS flag, now that that does what's needed.

Hence, it remained possible to lose VACUUM's inplace update of datfrozenxid if a REASSIGN OWNED processed that database at the same time.

For pg_class, REASSIGN OWNED calls ATExecChangeOwner() instead of the generic AlterObjectOwner_internal(), and ATExecChangeOwner() fulfills the locking mandate.

Michael Paquier	cfd6cbcf9b	Fix memory leak in pgoutput with publication list cache ... The pgoutput module caches publication names in a list and frees it upon invalidation. However, the code forgot to free the actual publication names within the list elements, as publication names are pstrdup()'d in GetPublication(). This would cause memory to leak in CacheMemoryContext, bloating it over time as this context is not cleaned. This is a problem for WAL senders running for a long time, as an accumulation of invalidation requests would bloat its cache memory usage. A second case, where this leak is easier to see, involves a backend calling SQL functions like pg_logical_slot_{get,peek}_changes() which create a new decoding context with each execution. More publications create more bloat. To address this, this commit adds a new memory context within the logical decoding context and resets it each time the publication names cache is invalidated, based on a suggestion from Amit Kapila. This ensures that the lifespan of the publication names aligns with that of the logical decoding context. Contrary to the HEAD-only commit f0c569d715 that has changed PGOutputData to track this new child memory context, the context is tracked with a static variable whose state is reset with a MemoryContext reset callback attached to PGOutputData->context, so as ABI compatibility is preserved in stable branches. This approach is based on an suggestion from Amit Kapila.

Thomas Munro	23c743b645	Fix corruption when relation truncation fails. ... RelationTruncate() does three things, while holding an AccessExclusiveLock and preventing checkpoints: 1. Logs the truncation. 2. Drops buffers, even if they're dirty. 3. Truncates some number of files. Step 2 could previously be canceled if it had to wait for I/O, and step 3 could and still can fail in file APIs. All orderings of these operations have data corruption hazards if interrupted, so we can't give up until the whole operation is done. When dirty pages were discarded but the corresponding blocks were left on disk due to ERROR, old page versions could come back from disk, reviving deleted data (see pgsql-bugs #18146 and several like it). When primary and standby were allowed to disagree on relation size, standbys could panic (see pgsql-bugs #18426) or revive data unknown to visibility management on the primary (theorized). Changes: * WAL is now unconditionally flushed first * smgrtruncate() is now called in a critical section, preventing interrupts and causing PANIC on file API failure * smgrtruncate() has a new parameter for existing fork sizes, because it can't call smgrnblocks() itself inside a critical section The changes apply to RelationTruncate(), smgr_redo() and pg_truncate_visibility_map(). That last is also brought up to date with other evolutions of the truncation protocol. The VACUUM FileTruncate() failure mode had been discussed in older reports than the ones referenced below, with independent analysis from many people, but earlier theories on how to fix it were too complicated to back-patch. The more recently invented cancellation bug was diagnosed by Alexander Lakhin. Other corruption scenarios were spotted by me while iterating on this patch and earlier commit 75818b3a.

Michael Paquier	1f95181b44	Replace durable_rename_excl() by durable_rename(), take two ... durable_rename_excl() attempts to avoid overwriting any existing files by using link() and unlink(), and it falls back to rename() on some platforms (aka WIN32), which offers no such overwrite protection. Most callers use durable_rename_excl() just in case there is an existing file, but in practice there shouldn't be one (see below for more details). Furthermore, failures during durable_rename_excl() can result in multiple hard links to the same file. As per Nathan's tests, it is possible to end up with two links to the same file in pg_wal after a crash just before unlink() during WAL recycling. Specifically, the test produced links to the same file for the current WAL file and the next one because the half-recycled WAL file was re-recycled upon restarting, leading to WAL corruption. This change replaces all the calls of durable_rename_excl() to durable_rename(). This removes the protection against accidentally overwriting an existing file, but some platforms are already living without it and ordinarily there shouldn't be one. The function itself is left around in case any extensions are using it. It will be removed on HEAD via a follow-up commit. Here is a summary of the existing callers of durable_rename_excl() (see second discussion link at the bottom), replaced by this commit. First, basic_archive used it to avoid overwriting an archive concurrently created by another server, but as mentioned above, it will still overwrite files on some platforms. Second, xlog.c uses it to recycle past WAL segments, where an overwrite should not happen (origin of the change at f0e37a8) because there are protections about the WAL segment to select when recycling an entry. The third and last area is related to the write of timeline history files. writeTimeLineHistory() will write a new timeline history file at the end of recovery on promotion, so there should be no such files for the same timeline. What remains is writeTimeLineHistoryFile(), that can be used in parallel by a WAL receiver and the startup process, and some digging of the buildfarm shows that EEXIST from a WAL receiver can happen with an error of "could not link file \"pg_wal/xlogtemp.NN\" to \"pg_wal/MM.history\", which would cause an automatic restart of the WAL receiver as it is promoted to FATAL, hence this should improve the stability of the WAL receiver as rename() would overwrite an existing TLI history file already fetched by the startup process at recovery. This is the second time this change is attempted, ccfbd92 being the first one, but this time no assertions are added for the case of a TLI history file written concurrently by the WAL receiver or the startup process because we can expect one to exist (some of the TAP tests are able to trigger with a proper timing). This commit has been originally applied on v16~ as of dac1ff3090, and we have received more reports of this issue, where clusters can become corrupted at replay in older stable branches with multiple links pointing to the same physical WAL segment file. This backpatch addresses the problem for the v13~v15 range.

David Rowley	bdb07d2411	Fix Assert failure in WITH RECURSIVE UNION queries ... If the non-recursive part of a recursive CTE ended up using TTSOpsBufferHeapTuple as the table slot type, then a duplicate value could cause an Assert failure in CheckOpSlotCompatibility() when checking the hash table for the duplicate value. The expected slot type for the deform step was TTSOpsMinimalTuple so the Assert failed when the TTSOpsBufferHeapTuple slot was used. This is a long-standing bug which we likely didn't notice because it seems much more likely that the non-recursive term would have required projection and used a TTSOpsVirtual slot, which CheckOpSlotCompatibility is ok with. There doesn't seem to be any harm done here other than the Assert failure. Both TTSOpsMinimalTuple and TTSOpsBufferHeapTuple slot types require tuple deformation, so the EEOP_*_FETCHSOME ExprState step would have properly existed in the ExprState. The solution is to pass NULL for the ExecBuildGroupingEqual's 'lops' parameter. This means the ExprState's EEOP_*_FETCHSOME step won't expect a fixed slot type. This makes CheckOpSlotCompatibility() happy as no checking is performed when the ExprEvalStep is not expecting a fixed slot type.

Tom Lane	c7f3c414fd	Fix possible crash in pg_dump with identity sequences. ... If an owned sequence is considered interesting, force its owning table to be marked interesting too. This ensures, in particular, that we'll fetch the owning table's column names so we have the data needed for ALTER TABLE ... ADD GENERATED. Previously there were edge cases where pg_dump could get SIGSEGV due to not having filled in the column names. (The known case is where the owning table has been made part of an extension while its identity sequence is not a member; but there may be others.) Also, if it's an identity sequence, force its dumped-components mask to exactly match the owning table: dump definition only if we're dumping the table's definition, dump data only if we're dumping the table's data, etc. This generalizes the code introduced in commit b965f2617 that set the sequence's dump mask to NONE if the owning table's mask is NONE. That's insufficient to prevent failures, because for example the table's mask might only request dumping ACLs, which would lead us to still emit ALTER TABLE ADD GENERATED even though we didn't create the table. It seems better to treat an identity sequence as though it were an inseparable aspect of the table, matching the treatment used in the backend's dependency logic. Perhaps this policy needs additional refinement, but let's wait to see some field use-cases before changing it further. While here, add a comment in pg_dump.h warning against writing tests like "if (dobj->dump == DUMP_COMPONENT_NONE)", which was a bug in this case. There is one other example in getPublicationNamespaces, which if it's not a bug is at least remarkably unclear and under-documented. Changing that requires a separate discussion, however.
