crosstabview.c was not added to nls.mk when it was added. Also remove
redundant gettext markers, since psql_error() is already registered as a
gettext keyword.
dumpAccessMethod() didn't get the memo that we now have a bitfield for
the components which should be dumped instead of a simple boolean.
Correct that by checking if the relevant bit is set for each component
being dumped out (and not dumping it out if it isn't set).
This corrects an issue where CREATE ACCESS METHOD commands were being
included in non-binary-upgrades when an extension included an access
method (as the bloom extensions does).
Also add a regression test to make sure that we only dump out the
ACCESS METHOD commands, when they are part of an extension, when doing
a binary upgrade.
Pointed out by Thom Brown.
In commit 5c3c3cd0a3, the new tests were
apparently just dumped into the first convenient file. Move them to a
separate file dedicated to testing that functionality and leave the
plpython_test test to test basic functionality, as it did before.
If we ANALYZE only selected columns of a table, we should not postpone
auto-analyze because of that; other columns may well still need stats
updates. As committed, the counter is left alone if a column list is
given, whether or not it includes all analyzable columns of the table.
Per complaint from Tomasz Ostrowski.
It's been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

If a Gather node has read as many tuples as it needs (for example, due
to Limit) it may detach the queue connecting it to the worker before
reading all of the worker's tuples. Rather than let the worker
continue to generate and send all of the results, have it stop after
sending the next tuple.
More could be done here to stop the worker even quicker, but this is
about as well as we can hope to do for 9.6.
This is in response to a problem report from Andreas Seltenreich.
Commit 44339b892a should be actually be
sufficient to fix that example even without this change, but it seems
better to do this, too, since we might otherwise waste quite a large
amount of effort in one or more workers.

Prior to this patch, it was occasionally possible, after shm_mq_sendv
had previously returned SHM_MQ_DETACHED, for a later shm_mq_sendv
operation to fail an assertion instead of just again returning
SHM_MQ_ATTACHED. From the shm_mq code's point of view, it was
expecting to be called again with the same arguments, since the
previous operation had only partially completed. However, a caller
who isn't using non-blocking mode won't be prepared to repeat the call
with the same arguments, and this code shouldn't expect that they
will. Repair in such a way that we'll be OK whether the next call
uses the same arguments or not.
Found by Andreas Seltenreich. Analysis and sketch of fix by Amit
Kapila. Patch by me, reviewed by Amit Kapila.
For historical reasons, copyFile and rewriteVisibilityMap took a force
argument which was always passed as true, meaning that any existing
file should be overwritten. However, it seems much safer to instead
fail if a file we need to write already exists.
While we're at it, remove the "force" argument altogether, since it was
never passed as anything other than true (and now we would never pass
it as anything other than false, if we kept it).
Noted by Andres Freund during post-commit review of the patch that added
rewriteVisibilityMap, commit 7087166a88,
but this also changes the behavior when copying files without rewriting
them.
Patch by Masahiko Sawada.
In the old logic, if read() were to return an error, we'd silently stop
rewriting the visibility map at that point in the file. That's safe,
but reporting the error is better, so do that instead.

Fix still another bug in commit 35fcb1b3d: it failed to fully initialize
the SortSupport states it introduced to allow the executor to re-check
ORDER BY expressions containing distance operators. That led to a null
pointer dereference if the sortsupport code tried to use ssup_cxt. The
problem only manifests in narrow cases, explaining the lack of previous
field reports. It requires a GiST-indexable distance operator that lacks
SortSupport and is on a pass-by-ref data type, which among core+contrib
seems to be only btree_gist's interval opclass; and it requires the scan
to be done as an IndexScan not an IndexOnlyScan, which explains how
btree_gist's regression test didn't catch it. Per bug #14134 from
Jihyun Yu.

It'd be good for "(x AND y) AND z" to produce a three-child AND node
whether or not operator_precedence_warning is on, but that failed to
happen when it's on because makeAndExpr() didn't look through the added
AEXPR_PAREN node. This has no effect on generated plans because prepqual.c
would flatten the AND nest anyway; but it does affect the number of parens

This attempts to buy back some of whatever performance we lost from fixing
bug #14174 by inlining the initial checks in MakeExpandedObjectReadOnly()
into the callers. We can do that in a macro without creating multiple-
evaluation hazards, so it's pretty much free notationally; and the amount
of code added to callers should be minimal as well. (Testing a value can't
take many more instructions than passing it to a subroutine.)
Might as well inline DatumIsReadWriteExpandedObject() while we're at it.
This is an ABI break for callers, so it doesn't seem safe to put into 9.5,
but I see no reason not to do it in HEAD.
Further thought about bug #14174 motivated me to try the case of a
R/W datum being returned from a VALUES list, and sure enough it was
broken. Fix that.
Also add a regression test case exercising the same scenario for
FunctionScan. That's not broken right now, because the function's
result will get shoved into a tuplestore between generation and use;
but it could easily become broken whenever we get around to optimizing
FunctionScan better.
There don't seem to be any other places where we put the result of
expression evaluation into a virtual tuple slot that could then be
the source for Vars of further expression evaluation, so I think
this is the end of this bug.
If a plan node output expression returns an "expanded" datum, and that
output column is referenced in more than one place in upper-level plan
nodes, we need to ensure that what is returned is a read-only reference
not a read/write reference. Otherwise one of the referencing sites could
scribble on or even delete the expanded datum before we have evaluated the
others. Commit 1dc5ebc907, which introduced this feature, supposed
that it'd be sufficient to make SubqueryScan nodes force their output
columns to read-only state. The folly of that was revealed by bug #14174
from Andrew Gierth, and really should have been immediately obvious
considering that the planner will happily optimize SubqueryScan nodes
out of the plan without any regard for this issue.
The safest fix seems to be to make ExecProject() force its results into
read-only state; that will cover every case where a plan node returns
expression results. Actually we can delegate this to ExecTargetList()
since we can recursively assume that plain Vars will not reference
read-write datums. That should keep the extra overhead down to something
minimal. We no longer need ExecMakeSlotContentsReadOnly(), which was
introduced only in support of the idea that just a few plan node types
would need to do this.
In the future it would be nice to have the planner account for this problem
and inject force-to-read-only expression evaluation nodes into only the
places where there's a risk of multiple evaluation. That's not a suitable
solution for 9.5 or even 9.6 at this point, though.

The partial paths that get modified may already have been used as
part of a GatherPath which appears in the path list, so modifying
them is not a good idea at this stage - especially because this
code has no check that the PathTarget is in fact parallel-safe.
When partial aggregation is being performed, this is actually
harmless because we'll end up replacing the pathtargets here with
the correct ones within create_grouping_paths(). But if we've got
a query tree containing only scan/join operations then this can
result in incorrectly pushing down parallel-restricted target
list entries. If those are, for example, references to subqueries,
that can crash the server; but it's wrong in any event.

The "snapshot too old" condition was not being recognized when
using a copied snapshot, since the original timestamp and lsn were
not being passed along. Noticed when testing the combination of
"snapshot too old" with parallel query execution.
Adopt the same solution as in commit aa90e148ca, but this time
let's put the ugliness inside the write_stderr() macro, instead of
expecting each call site to deal with it. Back-port that decision
into psql/common.c where I got the macro from in the first place.
Per gripe from Peter Eisentraut.
Mostly these are just comments but there are a few in documentation
and a handful in code and tests. Hopefully this doesn't cause too much
unnecessary pain for backpatching. I relented from some of the most
common like "thru" for that reason. The rest don't seem numerous
enough to cause problems.

Use MAXALIGN size/alignment to guarantee that later uses of memory are

Found by myself while testing on an Sun Ultra 5 (Sparc IIi) with some
editorializing by Andres Freund.
In passing fix a couple typos in the area
Formerly, Unix builds of pg_dump/pg_restore would trap SIGINT and similar
signals and set a flag that was tested in various data-transfer loops.
This was prone to errors of omission (cf commit 3c8aa6654); and even if
the client-side response was prompt, we did nothing that would cause
long-running SQL commands (e.g. CREATE INDEX) to terminate early.
Also, the master process would effectively do nothing at all upon receipt
of SIGINT; the only reason it seemed to work was that in typical scenarios
the signal would also be delivered to the child processes. We should
support termination when a signal is delivered only to the master process,
though.
Windows builds had no console interrupt handler, so they would just fall
over immediately at control-C, again leaving long-running SQL commands to
finish unmolested.
To fix, remove the flag-checking approach altogether. Instead, allow the
Unix signal handler to send a cancel request directly and then exit(1).
In the master process, also have it forward the signal to the children.
On Windows, add a console interrupt handler that behaves approximately
the same. The main difference is that a single execution of the Windows
handler can send all the cancel requests since all the info is available
in one process, whereas on Unix each process sends a cancel only for its
own database connection.
In passing, fix an old problem that DisconnectDatabase tends to send a
cancel request before exiting a parallel worker, even if nothing went
wrong. This is at least a waste of cycles, and could lead to unexpected
log messages, or maybe even data loss if it happened in pg_restore (though
in the current code the problem seems to affect only pg_dump). The cause
was that after a COPY step, pg_dump was leaving libpq in PGASYNC_BUSY
state, causing PQtransactionStatus() to report PQTRANS_ACTIVE. That's
normally harmless because the next PQexec() will silently clear the
PGASYNC_BUSY state; but in a parallel worker we might exit without any
additional SQL commands after a COPY step. So add an extra PQgetResult()
call after a COPY to allow libpq to return to PGASYNC_IDLE state.
This is a bug fix, IMO, so back-patch to 9.3 where parallel dump/restore
were introduced.

Commit 2ed5b87f96 introduced a bug in
mark/restore, in an attempt to optimize repeated restores to the
same page. This caused an assertion failure during a merge join
which fed directly from an index scan, although the impact would
not be limited to that case. Revert the bad chunk of code from
that commit.
While investigating this bug it was discovered that a particular
"paranoia" set of the mark position field would not prevent bad
behavior; it would just make it harder to diagnose. Change that
into an assertion, which will draw attention to any future problem
in that area more directly.
Backpatch to 9.5, where the bug was introduced.
Bug #14169 reported by Shinta Koyanagi.
Preliminary analysis by Tom Lane identified which commit caused
the bug.
Parallel dump did a totally pointless query to find out the name of each
table to be dumped, which it already knows. Parallel restore runs issued
lots of redundant SET commands because _doSetFixedOutputState() was invoked
once per TOC item rather than just once at connection start. While the
extra queries are insignificant if you're dumping or restoring large
tables, it still seems worth getting rid of them.
Also, give the responsibility for selecting the right client_encoding for
a parallel dump worker to setup_connection() where it naturally belongs,
instead of having ad-hoc code for that in CloneArchive(). And fix some
minor bugs like use of strdup() where pg_strdup() would be safer.
Back-patch to 9.3, mostly to keep the branches in sync in an area that
we're still finding bugs in.

The original intent in the stats collector was that we should not write out
stats data oftener than every PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL msec. Backends will not
make requests at all if they see the existing data is newer than that, and
the stats collector is supposed to disregard requests having a cutoff_time
older than its most recently written data, so that close-together requests
don't result in multiple writes. But the latter part of that got broken
in commit 187492b6c2, so that if two backends concurrently decide
the existing stats are too old, the collector would write the data twice.
(In principle the collector's logic would still merge requests as long as
the second one arrives before we've actually written data ... but since
the message collection loop would write data immediately after processing
a single inquiry message, that never happened in practice, and in any case
the window in which it might work would be much shorter than
PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL.)
To fix, improve pgstat_recv_inquiry so that it checks whether the cutoff
time is too old, and doesn't add a request to the queue if so. This means
that we do not need DBWriteRequest.request_time, because the decision is
taken before making a queue entry. And that means that we don't really
need the DBWriteRequest data structure at all; an OID list of database
OIDs will serve and allow removal of some rather verbose and crufty code.
In passing, improve the comments in this area, which have been rather
neglected. Also change backend_read_statsfile so that it's not silently
relying on MyDatabaseId to have some particular value in the autovacuum
launcher process. It accidentally worked as desired because MyDatabaseId
is zero in that process; but that does not seem like a dependency we want,
especially with no documentation about it.
Although this patch is mine, it turns out I'd rediscovered a known bug,

Found while debugging a bug which turned out to be independent of the
commit mentioned above.
Backpatch: -
BRIN was relying on the ability to remove a tuple from an index page,
then putting another tuple in the same line pointer. But PageAddItem
refuses to add a tuple beyond the first free item past the last used
item, and in particular, it rejects an attempt to add an item to an
empty page anywhere other than the first line pointer. PageAddItem
issues a WARNING and indicates to the caller that it failed, which in
turn causes the BRIN calling code to issue a PANIC, so the whole
sequence looks like this:
WARNING: specified item offset is too large
PANIC: failed to add BRIN tuple
To fix, create a new function PageAddItemExtended which is like
PageAddItem except that the two boolean arguments become a flags bitmap;
the "overwrite" and "is_heap" boolean flags in PageAddItem become
PAI_OVERWITE and PAI_IS_HEAP flags in the new function, and a new flag
PAI_ALLOW_FAR_OFFSET enables the behavior required by BRIN.
PageAddItem() retains its original signature, for compatibility with
third-party modules (other callers in core code are not modified,
either).
Also, in the belt-and-suspenders spirit, I added a new sanity check in
brinGetTupleForHeapBlock to raise an error if an TID found in the revmap
is not marked as live by the page header. This causes it to react with
"ERROR: corrupted BRIN index" to the bug at hand, rather than a hard
crash.

Parallel restore from directory format failed to respond to control-C
in a timely manner, because there were no checkAborting() calls in the
code path that reads data from a file and sends it to the backend.
If any worker was in the midst of restoring data for a large table,
you'd just have to wait.
This fix doesn't do anything for the problem of aborting a long-running
server-side command, but at least it fixes things for data transfers.
Back-patch to 9.3 where parallel restore was introduced.
This was effectively dead code, since the places that tested it could not
be reached after we entered the on-exit-cleanup routine that would set it.
It seems to have been a leftover from a design in which error abort would
try to send fresh commands to the workers --- a design which could never
have worked reliably, of course. Since the flag is not cross-platform, it
complicates reasoning about the code's behavior, which we could do without.
Although this is effectively just cosmetic, back-patch anyway, because
there are some actual bugs in the vicinity of this behavior.

The commentary in this file was in extremely sad shape. The author(s)
had clearly never heard of the project convention that a function header
comment should provide an API spec of some sort for that function. Much
of it was flat out wrong, too --- maybe it was accurate when written, but
if so it had not been updated to track subsequent code revisions. Rewrite
and rearrange to try to bring it up to speed, and annotate some of the
places where more work is needed. (I've refrained from actually fixing
anything of substance ... yet.)
Also, rename a couple of functions for more clarity as to what they do,
do some very minor code rearrangement, remove some pointless Asserts,
fix an incorrect Assert in readMessageFromPipe, and add a missing socket
close in one error exit from pgpipe(). The last would be a bug if we
tried to continue after pgpipe() failure, but since we don't, it's just
cosmetic at present.

Since we start the worker threads with _beginthreadex(), we should use
_endthreadex() to terminate them. We got this right in the normal-exit
code path, but not so much during an error exit from a worker.
In addition, be sure to apply CloseHandle to the thread handle after
each thread exits.
It's not clear that these oversights cause any user-visible problems,
since the pg_dump run is about to terminate anyway. Still, it's clearly
better to follow Microsoft's API specifications than ignore them.
Also a few cosmetic cleanups in WaitForTerminatingWorkers(), including
being a bit less random about where to cast between uintptr_t and HANDLE,
and being sure to clear the worker identity field for each dead worker
(not that false matches should be possible later, but let's be careful).

If both timeout indicators are set when we arrive at ProcessInterrupts,
we've historically just reported "lock timeout". However, some buildfarm
members have been observed to fail isolationtester's timeouts test by
reporting "lock timeout" when the statement timeout was expected to fire
first. The cause seems to be that the process is allowed to sleep longer
than expected (probably due to heavy machine load) so that the lock
timeout happens before we reach the point of reporting the error, and
then this arbitrary tiebreak rule does the wrong thing. We can improve
matters by comparing the scheduled timeout times to decide which error
to report.
I had originally proposed greatly reducing the 1-second window between
the two timeouts in the test cases. On reflection that is a bad idea,
at least for the case where the lock timeout is expected to fire first,
because that would assume that it takes negligible time to get from
statement start to the beginning of the lock wait. Thus, this patch
doesn't completely remove the risk of test failures on slow machines.
Empirically, however, the case this handles is the one we are seeing
in the buildfarm. The explanation may be that the other case requires
the scheduler to take the CPU away from a busy process, whereas the
case fixed here only requires the scheduler to not give the CPU back
right away to a process that has been woken from a multi-second sleep
(and, perhaps, has been swapped out meanwhile).

Getting a synchronized snapshot is not supported on a hot standby node,
and is by default taken when using -j with multiple sessions. Trying to
do so still failed, but with a server error that would also go in the
log. Instead, proprely detect this case and give a better error message.
As part of upper planner pathification (commit 3fc6e2d7f5) I redid
createplan.c's approach to the physical-tlist optimization, in which scan
nodes are allowed to return exactly the underlying table's columns so as
to save doing a projection step at runtime. The logic was intentionally
more aggressive than before about applying the optimization, which is
generally a good thing, but Andres Freund found a case in which it got
too aggressive. Namely, if any column is referenced more than once in
the parent plan node's sorting or grouping column list, we can't optimize
because then that column would need to have more than one ressortgroupref
label, and we only have space for one.
Add logic to detect this situation in use_physical_tlist(), and also add
some error checking in apply_pathtarget_labeling_to_tlist(), which this
example proves was being overly cavalier about whether what it was doing
made any sense.
The added test case exposes the problem only because we do not eliminate
duplicate grouping keys. That might be something to fix someday, but it
doesn't seem like appropriate post-beta work.
