* Rework order of end-of-recovery actions to delay timeline history writeMichael Paquier2018-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A critical failure in some of the end-of-recovery actions before the end-of-recovery record is written can cause PostgreSQL to react inconsistently with the rest of the cluster in the event of a crash before the final record is written. Two such failures are for example an error while processing a two-phase state files or when operating on recovery.conf. With this commit, the failures are still considered FATAL, but the write of the timeline history file is delayed as much as possible so as the window between the moment the file is written and the end-of-recovery record is generated gets minimized. This way, in the event of a crash or a failure, the new timeline decided at promotion will not seem taken by other nodes in the cluster. It is not really possible to reduce to zero this window, hence one could still see failures if a crash happens between the history file write and the end-of-recovery record, so any future code should be careful when adding new end-of-recovery actions. The original report from Magnus Hagander mentioned a renamed recovery.conf as original end-of-recovery failure which caused a timeline to be seen as taken but the subsequent processing on the now-missing recovery.conf cause the startup process to issue stop on FATAL, which at follow-up startup made the system inconsistent because of on-disk changes which already happened. Processing of two-phase state files still needs some work as corrupted entries are simply ignored now. This is left as a future item and this commit fixes the original complain.

* Prevent references to invalid relation pages after fresh promotionMichael Paquier2018-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a standby crashes after promotion before having completed its first post-recovery checkpoint, then the minimal recovery point which marks the LSN position where the cluster is able to reach consistency may be set to a position older than the first end-of-recovery checkpoint while all the WAL available should be replayed. This leads to the instance thinking that it contains inconsistent pages, causing a PANIC and a hard instance crash even if all the WAL available has not been replayed for certain sets of records replayed. When in crash recovery, minRecoveryPoint is expected to always be set to InvalidXLogRecPtr, which forces the recovery to replay all the WAL available, so this commit makes sure that the local copy of minRecoveryPoint from the control file is initialized properly and stays as it is while crash recovery is performed. Once switching to archive recovery or if crash recovery finishes, then the local copy minRecoveryPoint can be safely updated. Pavan Deolasee has reported and diagnosed the failure in the first place, and the base fix idea to rely on the local copy of minRecoveryPoint comes from Kyotaro Horiguchi, which has been expanded into a full-fledged patch by me. The test included in this commit has been written by Álvaro Herrera and Pavan Deolasee, which I have modified to make it faster and more reliable with sleep phases. Backpatch down to all supported versions where the bug appears, aka 9.3 which is where the end-of-recovery checkpoint is not run by the startup process anymore. The test gets easily supported down to 10, still it has been tested on all branches.

* Address set of issues with errno handlingMichael Paquier2018-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | System calls mixed up in error code paths are causing two issues which several code paths have not correctly handled: 1) For write() calls, sometimes the system may return less bytes than what has been written without errno being set. Some paths were careful enough to consider that case, and assumed that errno should be set to ENOSPC, other calls missed that. 2) errno generated by a system call is overwritten by other system calls which may succeed once an error code path is taken, causing what is reported to the user to be incorrect. This patch uses the brute-force approach of correcting all those code paths. Some refactoring could happen in the future, but this is let as future work, which is not targeted for back-branches anyway.

* Fix scenario where streaming standby gets stuck at a continuation record.Heikki Linnakangas2018-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a continuation record is split so that its first half has already been removed from the master, and is only present in pg_wal, and there is a recycled WAL segment in the standby server that looks like it would contain the second half, recovery would get stuck. The code in XLogPageRead() incorrectly started streaming at the beginning of the WAL record, even if we had already read the first page. Backpatch to 9.4. In principle, older versions have the same problem, but without replication slots, there was no straightforward mechanism to prevent the master from recycling old WAL that was still needed by standby. Without such a mechanism, I think it's reasonable to assume that there's enough slack in how many old segments are kept around to not run into this, or you have a WAL archive.

* Ignore nextOid when replaying an ONLINE checkpoint.Tom Lane2018-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The nextOid value is from the start of the checkpoint and may well be stale compared to values from more recent XLOG_NEXTOID records. Previously, we adopted it anyway, allowing the OID counter to go backwards during a crash. While this should be harmless, it contributed to the severity of the bug fixed in commit 0408e1ed5, by allowing duplicate TOAST OIDs to be assigned immediately following a crash. Without this error, that issue would only have arisen when TOAST objects just younger than a multiple of 2^32 OIDs were deleted and then not vacuumed in time to avoid a conflict.

* Allow on-line enabling and disabling of data checksumsMagnus Hagander2018-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes it possible to turn checksums on in a live cluster, without the previous need for dump/reload or logical replication (and to turn it off). Enabling checkusm starts a background process in the form of a launcher/worker combination that goes through the entire database and recalculates checksums on each and every page. Only when all pages have been checksummed are they fully enabled in the cluster. Any failure of the process will revert to checksums off and the process has to be started. This adds a new WAL record that indicates the state of checksums, so the process works across replicated clusters.

* Fix bug in cancellation of non-exclusive backup to avoid assertion failure.Fujii Masao2017-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously an assertion failure occurred when pg_stop_backup() for non-exclusive backup was aborted while it's waiting for WAL files to be archived. This assertion failure happened in do_pg_abort_backup() which was called when a non-exclusive backup was canceled. do_pg_abort_backup() assumes that there is at least one non-exclusive backup running when it's called. But pg_stop_backup() can be canceled even after it marks the end of non-exclusive backup (e.g., during waiting for WAL archiving). This broke the assumption that do_pg_abort_backup() relies on, and which caused an assertion failure. This commit changes do_pg_abort_backup() so that it does nothing when non-exclusive backup has been already marked as completed. That is, the asssumption is also changed, and do_pg_abort_backup() now can handle even the case where it's called when there is no running backup. Backpatch to 9.6 where SQL-callable non-exclusive backup was added.

* Simplify do_pg_start_backup's API by opening pg_tblspc internally.Tom Lane2017-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | do_pg_start_backup() expects its callers to pass in an open DIR pointer for the pg_tblspc directory, but there's no apparent advantage in that. It complicates the callers without adding any flexibility, and there's no robustness advantage, since we surely have to be prepared for errors during the scan of pg_tblspc anyway. In fact, by holding an extra kernel resource during operations like the preliminary checkpoint, we might be making things a fraction more failure-prone not less. Hence, remove that argument and open the directory just for the duration of the actual scan. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/28752.1512413887@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Clean up assorted messiness around AllocateDir() usage.Tom Lane2017-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a couple of low-probability bugs that could lead to reporting an irrelevant errno value (and hence possibly a wrong SQLSTATE) concerning directory-open or file-open failures. It also fixes places where we took shortcuts in reporting such errors, either by using elog instead of ereport or by using ereport but forgetting to specify an errcode. And it eliminates a lot of just plain redundant error-handling code. In service of all this, export fd.c's formerly-static function ReadDirExtended, so that external callers can make use of the coding pattern dir = AllocateDir(path); while ((de = ReadDirExtended(dir, path, LOG)) != NULL) if they'd like to treat directory-open failures as mere LOG conditions rather than errors. Also fix FreeDir to be a no-op if we reach it with dir == NULL, as such a coding pattern would cause. Then, remove code at many call sites that was throwing an error or log message for AllocateDir failure, as ReadDir or ReadDirExtended can handle that job just fine. Aside from being a net code savings, this gets rid of a lot of not-quite-up-to-snuff reports, as mentioned above. (In some places these changes result in replacing a custom error message such as "could not open tablespace directory" with more generic wording "could not open directory", but it was agreed that the custom wording buys little as long as we report the directory name.) In some other call sites where we can't just remove code, change the error reports to be fully project-style-compliant. Also reorder code in restoreTwoPhaseData that was acquiring a lock between AllocateDir and ReadDir; in the unlikely but surely not impossible case that LWLockAcquire changes errno, AllocateDir failures would be misreported. There is no great value in opening the directory before acquiring TwoPhaseStateLock, so just do it in the other order. Also fix CheckXLogRemoved to guarantee that it preserves errno, as quite a number of call sites are implicitly assuming. (Again, it's unlikely but I think not impossible that errno could change during a SpinLockAcquire. If so, this function was broken for its own purposes as well as breaking callers.) And change a few places that were using not-per-project-style messages, such as "could not read directory" when "could not open directory" is more correct. Back-patch the exporting of ReadDirExtended, in case we have occasion to back-patch some fix that makes use of it; it's not needed right now but surely making it global is pretty harmless. Also back-patch the restoreTwoPhaseData and CheckXLogRemoved fixes. The rest of this is essentially cosmetic and need not get back-patched.

* Refactor new file permission handlingPeter Eisentraut2017-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The file handling functions from fd.c were called with a diverse mix of notations for the file permissions when they were opening new files. Almost all files created by the server should have the same permissions set. So change the API so that e.g. OpenTransientFile() automatically uses the standard permissions set, and OpenTransientFilePerm() is a new function that takes an explicit permissions set for the few cases where it is needed. This also saves an unnecessary argument for call sites that are just opening an existing file. While we're reviewing these APIs, get rid of the FileName typedef and use the standard const char * for the file name and mode_t for the file mode. This makes these functions match other file handling functions and removes an unnecessary layer of mysteriousness. We can also get rid of a few casts that way.

* Make WAL segment size configurable at initdb time.Andres Freund2017-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For performance reasons a larger segment size than the default 16MB can be useful. A larger segment size has two main benefits: Firstly, in setups using archiving, it makes it easier to write scripts that can keep up with higher amounts of WAL, secondly, the WAL has to be written and synced to disk less frequently. But at the same time large segment size are disadvantageous for smaller databases. So far the segment size had to be configured at compile time, often making it unrealistic to choose one fitting to a particularly load. Therefore change it to a initdb time setting. This includes a breaking changes to the xlogreader.h API, which now requires the current segment size to be configured. For that and similar reasons a number of binaries had to be taught how to recognize the current segment size.

* Fix possibility of creating a "phantom" segment after promotion.Andres Freund2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When promoting a standby just after a XLOG_SWITCH record was replayed, and next segment(s) are already are locally available (via walsender, restore_command + trigger/recovery target), that segment could accidentally be recycled onto the past of the new timeline. Later checkpointer would create a .ready file for it, assuming there was an error during creation, and it would get archived. That causes trouble if another standby is later brought up from a basebackup from before the timeline creation, because it would try to read the segment, because XLogFileReadAnyTLI just tries all possible timelines, which doesn't have valid contents. Thus replay would fail. The problem, if already occurred, can be fixed by removing the segment and/or having restore_command filter it out. The reason for the creation of such "phantom" segments was, that after an XLOG_SWITCH record the EndOfLog variable points to the beginning of the next segment, and RemoveXlogFile() used XLByteToPrevSeg(). Normally RemoveXlogFile() doing so is harmless, because the last segment will still exist preventing InstallXLogFileSegment() from causing harm, but just after promotion there's no previous segment on the new timeline. Fix that by using XLByteToSeg() instead of XLByteToPrevSeg().

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

* Prevent possibility of panics during shutdown checkpoint.Andres Freund2017-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the checkpointer writes the shutdown checkpoint, it checks afterwards whether any WAL has been written since it started and throws a PANIC if so. At that point, only walsenders are still active, so one might think this could not happen, but walsenders can also generate WAL, for instance in BASE_BACKUP and logical decoding related commands (e.g. via hint bits). So they can trigger this panic if such a command is run while the shutdown checkpoint is being written. To fix this, divide the walsender shutdown into two phases. First, checkpointer, itself triggered by postmaster, sends a PROCSIG_WALSND_INIT_STOPPING signal to all walsenders. If the backend is idle or runs an SQL query this causes the backend to shutdown, if logical replication is in progress all existing WAL records are processed followed by a shutdown. Otherwise this causes the walsender to switch to the "stopping" state. In this state, the walsender will reject any further replication commands. The checkpointer begins the shutdown checkpoint once all walsenders are confirmed as stopping. When the shutdown checkpoint finishes, the postmaster sends us SIGUSR2. This instructs walsender to send any outstanding WAL, including the shutdown checkpoint record, wait for it to be replicated to the standby, and then exit.

* Revert "Prevent panic during shutdown checkpoint"Andres Freund2017-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 086221cf6b1727c2baed4703c582f657b7c5350e, which was made to master only. The approach implemented in the above commit has some issues. While those could easily be fixed incrementally, doing so would make backpatching considerably harder, so instead first revert this patch.

* Prevent panic during shutdown checkpointPeter Eisentraut2017-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the checkpointer writes the shutdown checkpoint, it checks afterwards whether any WAL has been written since it started and throws a PANIC if so. At that point, only walsenders are still active, so one might think this could not happen, but walsenders can also generate WAL, for instance in BASE_BACKUP and certain variants of CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT. So they can trigger this panic if such a command is run while the shutdown checkpoint is being written. To fix this, divide the walsender shutdown into two phases. First, the postmaster sends a SIGUSR2 signal to all walsenders. The walsenders then put themselves into the "stopping" state. In this state, they reject any new commands. (For simplicity, we reject all new commands, so that in the future we do not have to track meticulously which commands might generate WAL.) The checkpointer waits for all walsenders to reach this state before proceeding with the shutdown checkpoint. After the shutdown checkpoint is done, the postmaster sends SIGINT (previously unused) to the walsenders. This triggers the existing shutdown behavior of sending out the shutdown checkpoint record and then terminating.

* Rework handling of subtransactions in 2PC recoverySimon Riggs2017-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bug fixed by 0874d4f3e183757ba15a4b3f3bf563e0393dd9c2 caused us to question and rework the handling of subtransactions in 2PC during and at end of recovery. Patch adds checks and tests to ensure no further bugs. This effectively removes the temporary measure put in place by 546c13e11b29a5408b9d6a6e3cca301380b47f7f.
