Michael Paquier	ae4ffa7227	Fix typo with wait event for SLRU buffer of commit timestamps ... This wait event was documented as "CommitTsBuffer" since its introduction, but the code named it "CommitTSBuffer". This commit fixes the code to follow the term documented, which is also more consistent with the naming of the other wait events used for commit timestamps. Introduced by 5da1493.

Peter Eisentraut	e070225004	Fix prove_installcheck when used with PGXS ... Commit 153e215677 added the portlock directory. This is created in $ENV{top_builddir} if it is set. Under PGXS, top_builddir points into the installation directory, which is not necessarily writable and in any case inappropriate to use by a test suite. The cause of the problem is that the prove_installcheck target in Makefile.global exports top_builddir, which isn't useful (since no other Perl code actually reads it) and breaks this use case. The reason this code is there is probably that is has been dragged around with various other changes, in particular a0fc813266, but without a real purpose of its own. By just removing the exporting of top_builddir in prove_installcheck, the portlock directory then ends up under tmp_check in the build directory, which is more suitable.

Nathan Bossart	52c9cf3239	Move return statements out of PG_TRY blocks. ... If we exit a PG_TRY block early via "continue", "break", "goto", or "return", we'll skip unwinding its exception stack. This change moves a couple of such "return" statements in PL/Python out of PG_TRY blocks. This was introduced in d0aa965c0a and affects all supported versions. We might also be able to add compile-time checks to prevent recurrence, but that is left as a future exercise.

Tom Lane	9d517339e9	Tighten array dimensionality checks in Python -> SQL array conversion. ... Like plperl before f47004add, plpython wasn't being sufficiently careful about checking that list-of-list structures represent rectangular arrays, so that it would accept some cases in which different parts of the "array" are nested to different depths. This was exacerbated by Python's weak distinction between sequences and lists, so that in some cases strings could get treated as though they are lists (and burst into individual characters) even though a different ordering of the upper-level list would give a different result. Some of this behavior was unreachable (without risking a crash) before 81eaaf65e. It seems like a good idea to clean it all up in the same releases, rather than shipping a non-crashing but nonetheless visibly buggy behavior in the name of minimal change. Hence, back-patch.

Tom Lane	1e868bb6c6	Tighten array dimensionality checks in Perl -> SQL array conversion. ... plperl_array_to_datum() wasn't sufficiently careful about checking that nested lists represent a rectangular array structure; it would accept inputs such as "[1, []]". This is a bit related to the PL/Python bug fixed in commit 81eaaf65e, but it doesn't seem to provide any direct route to a memory stomp. Instead the likely failure mode is for makeMdArrayResult to be passed fewer Datums than the claimed array dimensionality requires, possibly leading to a wild pointer dereference and SIGSEGV. Per report from Alexander Lakhin. It's been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5ebae5e4-d401-fadf-8585-ac3eaf53219c@gmail.com	3 years ago
Tom Lane	a1d9aacc41	Handle zero-length sublist correctly in Python -> SQL array conversion. ... If PLySequence_ToArray came across a zero-length sublist, it'd compute the overall array size as zero, possibly leading to a memory clobber. (This would likely qualify as a security bug, were it not that plpython is an untrusted language already.) I think there are other corner-case issues in this code as well, notably that the error messages don't match the core code and for some ranges of array sizes you'd get "invalid memory alloc request size" rather than the intended message about array size. Really this code has no business doing its own array size calculation at all, so remove the faulty code in favor of using ArrayGetNItems(). Per bug #17912 from Alexander Lakhin.

Michael Paquier	d29eba1987	Fix crashes with CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION and schema elements ... CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION with appended schema elements can lead to crashes when comparing the schema name of the query with the schemas used in the qualification of some clauses in the elements' queries. The origin of the problem is that the transformation routine for the elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query uses as new, expected, schema name the one listed in CreateSchemaStmt itself. However, depending on the query, CreateSchemaStmt.schemaname may be NULL, being computed instead from the role specification of the query given by the AUTHORIZATION clause, that could be either: - A user name string, with the new schema name being set to the same value as the role given. - Guessed from CURRENT_ROLE, SESSION_ROLE or CURRENT_ROLE, with a new schema name computed from the security context where CREATE SCHEMA is running. Regression tests are added for CREATE SCHEMA with some appended elements (some of them with schema qualifications), covering also some role specification patterns. While on it, this simplifies the context structure used during the transformation of the elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query by removing the fields for the role specification and the role type. They were not used, and for the role specification this could be confusing as the schema name may by extracted from that at the beginning of CreateSchemaCommand(). This issue exists for a long time, so backpatch down to all the versions supported.

Tom Lane	2ba890ce7e	Fix memory leakage in plpgsql DO blocks that use cast expressions. ... Commit 04fe805a1 modified plpgsql so that datatype casts make use of expressions cached by plancache.c, in place of older code where these expression trees were managed by plpgsql itself. However, I (tgl) forgot that we use a separate, shorter-lived cast info hashtable in DO blocks. The new mechanism thus resulted in session-lifespan leakage of the plancache data once a DO block containing one or more casts terminated. To fix, split the cast hash table into two parts, one that tracks only the plancache's CachedExpressions and one that tracks the expression state trees generated from them. DO blocks need their own expression state trees and hence their own version of the second hash table, but there's no reason they can't share the CachedExpressions with regular plpgsql functions.

Michael Paquier	02f0764546	ecpg: Fix handling of strings in ORACLE compat code with SQLDA ... When compiled with -C ORACLE, ecpg_get_data() had a one-off issue where it would incorrectly store the null terminator byte to str[-1] when varcharsize is 0, which is something that can happen when using SQLDA. This would eat 1 byte from the previous field stored, corrupting the results generated. All the callers of ecpg_get_data() estimate and allocate enough storage for the data received, and the fix of this commit relies on this assumption.

Tom Lane	72a914e9fb	Avoid trying to write an empty WAL record in log_newpage_range(). ... If the last few pages in the specified range are empty (all zero), then log_newpage_range() could try to emit an empty WAL record containing no FPIs. This at least upsets an Assert in ReserveXLogInsertLocation, and might perhaps have bad real-world consequences in non-assert builds. This has been broken since log_newpage_range() was introduced, but the case was hard if not impossible to hit before commit 3d6a98457 decided it was okay to leave VM and FSM pages intentionally zero.

David Rowley	ae85fb828c	Fix incorrect partition pruning logic for boolean partitioned tables ... The partition pruning logic assumed that "b IS NOT true" was exactly the same as "b IS FALSE". This is not the case when considering NULL values. Fix this so we correctly include any partition which could hold NULL values for the NOT case. Additionally, this fixes a bug in the partition pruning code which handles partitioned tables partitioned like ((NOT boolcol)). This is a seemingly unlikely schema design, and it was untested and also broken. Here we add tests for the ((NOT boolcol)) case and insert some actual data into those tables and verify we do get the correct rows back when running queries. I've also adjusted the existing boolpart tests to include some data and verify we get the correct results too. Both the bugs being fixed here could lead to incorrect query results with fewer rows being returned than expected. No additional rows could have been returned accidentally. In passing, remove needless ternary expression. It's more simple just to pass !is_not_clause to makeBoolConst(). It makes sense to do this so the code is consistent with the bug fix in the "else if" condition just below. David Kimura did submit a patch to fix the first of the issues here, but that's not what's being committed here.

Tom Lane	0dd55ef9b8	Fix parallel-safety marking when moving initplans to another node. ... Our policy since commit ab77a5a45 has been that a plan node having any initplans is automatically not parallel-safe. (This could be relaxed, but not today.) clean_up_removed_plan_level neglected this, and could attach initplans to a parallel-safe child plan node without clearing the plan's parallel-safe flag. That could lead to "subplan was not initialized" errors at runtime, in case an initplan referenced another one and only the referencing one got transmitted to parallel workers. The fix in clean_up_removed_plan_level is trivial enough. materialize_finished_plan also moves initplans from one node to another, but it's okay because it already copies the source node's parallel_safe flag. The other place that does this kind of thing is standard_planner's hack to inject a top-level Gather when debug_parallel_query is active. But that's actually dead code given that we're correctly enforcing the "initplans aren't parallel safe" rule, so just replace it with an Assert that there are no initplans. Also improve some related comments. Normally we'd add a regression test case for this sort of bug. The mistake itself is already reached by existing tests, but there is accidentally no visible problem. The only known test case that creates an actual failure seems too indirect and fragile to justify keeping it as a regression test (not least because it fails to fail in v11, though the bug is clearly present there too).

Michael Paquier	34105eea62	Fix detection of unseekable files for fseek() and ftello() with MSVC ... Calling fseek() or ftello() on a handle to a non-seeking device such as a pipe or a communications device is not supported. Unfortunately, MSVC's flavor of these routines, _fseeki64() and _ftelli64(), do not return an error when given a pipe as handle. Some of the logic of pg_dump and restore relies on these routines to check if a handle is seekable, causing failures when passing the contents of pg_dump to pg_restore through a pipe, for example. This commit introduces wrappers for fseeko() and ftello() on MSVC so as any callers are able to properly detect the cases of non-seekable handles. This relies mainly on GetFileType(), sharing a bit of code with the MSVC port for fstat(). The code in charge of getting a file type is refactored into a new file called win32common.c, shared by win32stat.c and the new win32fseek.c. It includes the MSVC ports for fseeko() and ftello(). Like 765f5df, this is backpatched down to 14, where the fstat() implementation for MSVC is able to understand about files larger than 4GB in size. Using a TAP test for that is proving to be tricky as IPC::Run handles the pipes by itself, still I have been able to check the fix manually.

Tom Lane	34ad3aedb0	Fix ts_headline() edge cases for empty query and empty search text. ... tsquery's GETQUERY() macro is only safe to apply to a tsquery that is known non-empty; otherwise it gives a pointer to garbage. Before commit 5a617d75d, ts_headline() avoided this pitfall, but only in a very indirect, nonobvious way. (hlCover could not reach its TS_execute call, because if the query contains no lexemes then hlFirstIndex would surely return -1.) After that commit, it fell into the trap, resulting in weird errors such as "unrecognized operator" and/or valgrind complaints. In HEAD, fix this by not calling TS_execute_locations() at all for an empty query. In the back branches, add a defensive check to hlCover() --- that's not fixing any live bug, but I judge the code a bit too fragile as-is. Also, both mark_hl_fragments() and mark_hl_words() were careless about the possibility of empty search text: in the cases where no match has been found, they'd end up telling mark_fragment() to mark from word indexes 0 to 0 inclusive, even when there is no word 0. This is harmless since we over-allocated the prs->words array, but it does annoy valgrind. Fix so that the end index is -1 and thus mark_fragment() will do nothing in such cases. Bottom line is that this fixes a live bug in HEAD, but in the back branches it's only getting rid of a valgrind nitpick. Back-patch anyway. Per report from Alexander Lakhin.

Tom Lane	0a6aaf0116	Fix another issue with ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER on partitioned tables. ... In v13 and v14, the ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER USER variant malfunctioned on cloned triggers, failing to find the clones because it thought they were system triggers. Other variants of ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER would improperly apply a superuserness check. Fix by adjusting the is-it- a-system-trigger check to match reality in those branches. (As far as I can find, this is the only place that got it wrong.) There's no such bug in v15/HEAD, because we revised the catalog representation of system triggers to be what this code was expecting. However, add the test case to these branches anyway, because this area is visibly pretty fragile. Also remove an obsoleted comment. The recent v15/HEAD commit 6949b921d fixed a nearby bug. I now see that my commit message for that was inaccurate: the behavior of recursing to clone triggers is older than v15, but it didn't apply to the case in v13/v14 because in those branches parent partitioned tables have no pg_trigger entries for foreign-key triggers.

Tom Lane	b0b55d8b80	Reject system columns as elements of foreign keys. ... Up through v11 it was sensible to use the "oid" system column as a foreign key column, but since that was removed there's no visible usefulness in making any of the remaining system columns a foreign key. Moreover, since the TupleTableSlot rewrites in v12, such cases actively fail because of implicit assumptions that only user columns appear in foreign keys. The lack of complaints about that seems like good evidence that no one is trying to do it. Hence, rather than trying to repair those assumptions (of which there are at least two, maybe more), let's just forbid the case up front. Per this patch, a system column in either the referenced or referencing side of a foreign key will draw this error; however, putting one in the referenced side would have failed later anyway, since we don't allow unique indexes to be made on system columns.

Tom Lane	a1904c9ce5	Fix dereference of dangling pointer in GiST index buffering build. ... gistBuildCallback tried to fetch the size of an index tuple that might have already been freed by gistProcessEmptyingQueue. While this seems to usually be harmless in production builds, in principle it could result in a SIGSEGV, or more likely a bogus value for indtuplesSize leading to poor page-split decisions later in the build. The memory management here is confusing and could stand to be refactored, but for the moment it seems to be enough to fetch the tuple size sooner. AFAICT the indtuples[Size] totals aren't used in between these places; even if they were, the updated values shouldn't be any worse to use. So just move the incrementing of the totals up.

Tom Lane	334cc4c966	Reject attempts to alter composite types used in indexes. ... find_composite_type_dependencies() ignored indexes, which is a poor decision because an expression index could have a stored column of a composite (or other container) type even when the underlying table does not. Teach it to detect such cases and error out. We have to work a bit harder than for other relations because the pg_depend entry won't identify the specific index column of concern, but it's not much new code. This does not address bug #17872's original complaint that dropping a column in such a type might lead to violations of the uniqueness property that a unique index is supposed to ensure. That seems of much less concern to me because it won't lead to crashes. Per bug #17872 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane	11213d4466	Fix oversights in array manipulation. ... The nested-arrays code path in ExecEvalArrayExpr() used palloc to allocate the result array, whereas every other array-creating function has used palloc0 since 18c0b4ecc. This mostly works, but unused bits past the end of the nulls bitmap may end up undefined. That causes valgrind complaints with -DWRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES, and could cause planner misbehavior as cited in 18c0b4ecc. There seems no very good reason why we should strive to avoid palloc0 in just this one case, so fix it the easy way with s/palloc/palloc0/. While looking at that I noted that we also failed to check for overflow of "nbytes" and "nitems" while summing the sizes of the sub-arrays, potentially allowing a crash due to undersized output allocation. For "nbytes", follow the policy used by other array-munging code of checking for overflow after each addition. (As elsewhere, the last addition of the array's overhead space doesn't need an extra check, since palloc itself will catch a value between 1Gb and 2Gb.) For "nitems", there's no very good reason to sum the inputs at all, since we can perfectly well use ArrayGetNItems' result instead of ignoring it. Per discussion of this bug, also remove redundant zeroing of the nulls bitmap in array_set_element and array_set_slice. Patch by Alexander Lakhin and myself, per bug #17858 from Alexander Lakhin; thanks also to Richard Guo. These bugs are a dozen years old, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Thomas Munro	1b9e42e82a	Fix race in parallel hash join batch cleanup, take II. ... With unlucky timing and parallel_leader_participation=off (not the default), PHJ could attempt to access per-batch shared state just as it was being freed. There was code intended to prevent that by checking for a cleared pointer, but it was racy. Fix, by introducing an extra barrier phase. The new phase PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING means that it's safe to access the per-batch state to find a batch to help with, and PHJ_BUILD_DONE means that it is too late. The last to detach will free the array of per-batch state as before, but now it will also atomically advance the phase, so that late attachers can avoid the hazard. This mirrors the way per-batch hash tables are freed (see phases PHJ_BATCH_PROBING and PHJ_BATCH_DONE). An earlier attempt to fix this (commit 3b8981b6, later reverted) missed one special case. When the inner side is empty (the "empty inner optimization), the build barrier would only make it to PHJ_BUILD_HASHING_INNER phase before workers attempted to detach from the hashtable. In that case, fast-forward the build barrier to PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING before proceeding, so that our later assertions hold and we can still negotiate who is cleaning up. Revealed by build farm failures, where BarrierAttach() failed a sanity check assertion, because the memory had been clobbered by dsa_free(). In non-assert builds, the result could be a segmentation fault. Back-patch to all supported releases.

David Rowley	f654f343c6	Fix memory leak in Memoize cache key evaluation ... When probing the Memoize cache to check if the current cache key values exist in the cache, we perform an evaluation of the expressions making up the cache key before probing the hash table for those values. This operation could leak memory as it is possible that the cache key is an expression which requires allocation of memory, as was the case in bug 17844. Here we fix this by correctly switching to the per tuple context before evaluating the cache expressions so that the memory is freed next time the per tuple context is reset. Bug: 17844 Reported-by: Alexey Ermakov Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17844-d2f6f9e75a622bed@postgresql.org Backpatch-through: 14, where Memoize was introduced	3 years ago
Tom Lane	5fc1ac151d	Fix pg_dump for hash partitioning on enum columns. ... Hash partitioning on an enum is problematic because the hash codes are derived from the OIDs assigned to the enum values, which will almost certainly be different after a dump-and-reload than they were before. This means that some rows probably end up in different partitions than before, causing restore to fail because of partition constraint violations. (pg_upgrade dodges this problem by using hacks to force the enum values to keep the same OIDs, but that's not possible nor desirable for pg_dump.) Users can work around that by specifying --load-via-partition-root, but since that's a dump-time not restore-time decision, one might find out the need for it far too late. Instead, teach pg_dump to apply that option automatically when dealing with a partitioned table that has hash-on-enum partitioning. Also deal with a pre-existing issue for --load-via-partition-root mode: in a parallel restore, we try to TRUNCATE target tables just before loading them, in order to enable some backend optimizations. This is bad when using --load-via-partition-root because (a) we're likely to suffer deadlocks from restore jobs trying to restore rows into other partitions than they came from, and (b) if we miss getting a deadlock we might still lose data due to a TRUNCATE removing rows from some already-completed restore job. The fix for this is conceptually simple: just don't TRUNCATE if we're dealing with a --load-via-partition-root case. The tricky bit is for pg_restore to identify those cases. In dumps using COPY commands we can inspect each COPY command to see if it targets the nominal target table or some ancestor. However, in dumps using INSERT commands it's pretty impractical to examine the INSERTs in advance. To provide a solution for that going forward, modify pg_dump to mark TABLE DATA items that are using --load-via-partition-root with a comment. (This change also responds to a complaint from Robert Haas that the dump output for --load-via-partition-root is pretty confusing.) pg_restore checks for the special comment as well as checking the COPY command if present. This will fail to identify the combination of --load-via-partition-root and --inserts in pre-existing dump files, but that should be a pretty rare case in the field. If it does happen you will probably get a deadlock failure that you can work around by not using parallel restore, which is the same as before this bug fix. Having done this, there seems no remaining reason for the alarmism in the pg_dump man page about combining --load-via-partition-root with parallel restore, so remove that warning. Patch by me; thanks to Julien Rouhaud for review. Back-patch to v11 where hash partitioning was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1376149.1675268279@sss.pgh.pa.us	3 years ago
Andres Freund	a9b716c33d	tests: Prevent syslog activity by slapd, take 2 ... Unfortunately it turns out that the logfile-only option added in b9f8d1cbad is only available in openldap starting in 2.6. Luckily the option to control the log level (loglevel/-s) have been around for much longer. As it turns out loglevel/-s only control what goes into syslog, not what ends up in the file specified with 'logfile' and stderr. While we currently are specifying 'logfile', nothing ends up in it, as the option only controls debug messages, and we didn't set a debug level. The debug level can only be configured on the commandline and also prevents forking. That'd require larger changes, so this commit doesn't tackle that issue. Specify the syslog level when starting slapd using -s, as that allows to prevent all syslog messages if one uses '0' instead of 'none', while loglevel doesn't prevent the first message.

Michael Paquier	bbf18fe199	Improve WIN32 port of fstat() to detect more file types ... The current implementation of _pgfstat64() is ineffective in detecting a terminal handle or an anonymous named pipe. This commit improves our port of fstat() to detect more efficiently such cases by relying on GetFileType(), and returning more correct data when the type found is either a FILE_TYPE_PIPE (_S_IFIFO) or a FILE_TYPE_CHAR (_S_IFCHR). This is part of a more global fix to address failures when feeding the output generated by pg_dump to pg_restore through a pipe, for example, but not all of it. We are also going to need to do something about fseek() and ftello() which are not reliable on WIN32 for the same cases where fstat() was incorrect. Fixing fstat() is independent of the rest, though, which is why both fixes are handled separately, and this is the first part of it.

Thomas Munro	2bef57ee8b	Fix fractional vacuum_cost_delay. ... Commit 4753ef37 changed vacuum_delay_point() to use the WaitLatch() API, to fix the problem that vacuum could keep running for a very long time after the postmaster died. Unfortunately, that broke commit caf626b2's support for fractional vacuum_cost_delay, which shipped in PostgreSQL 12. WaitLatch() works in whole milliseconds. For now, revert the change from commit 4753ef37, but add an explicit check for postmaster death. That's an extra system call on systems other than Linux and FreeBSD, but that overhead doesn't matter much considering that we willingly went to sleep and woke up again. (In later work, we might add higher resolution timeouts to the latch API so that we could do this with our standard programming pattern, but that wouldn't be back-patched.)

Thomas Munro	9b6e0b9c37	Fix waitpid() emulation on Windows. ... Our waitpid() emulation didn't prevent a PID from being recycled by the OS before the call to waitpid(). The postmaster could finish up tracking more than one child process with the same PID, and confuse them. Fix, by moving the guts of pgwin32_deadchild_callback() into waitpid(), so that resources are released synchronously. The process and PID continue to exist until we close the process handle, which only happens once we're ready to adjust our book-keeping of running children. This seems to explain a couple of failures on CI. It had never been reported before, despite the code being as old as the Windows port. Perhaps Windows started recycling PIDs more rapidly, or perhaps timing changes due to commit 7389aad6 made it more likely to break.
