* psql: fix \connect with URIs and conninfo stringsAlvaro Herrera2015-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | psql was already accepting conninfo strings as the first parameter in \connect, but the way it worked wasn't sane; some of the other parameters would get the previous connection's values, causing it to connect to a completely unexpected server or, more likely, not finding any server at all because of completely wrong combinations of parameters. Fix by explicitely checking for a conninfo-looking parameter in the dbname position; if one is found, use its complete specification rather than mix with the other arguments. Also, change tab-completion to not try to complete conninfo/URI-looking "dbnames" and document that conninfos are accepted as first argument. There was a weak consensus to backpatch this, because while the behavior of using the dbname as a conninfo is nowhere documented for \connect, it is reasonable to expect that it works because it does work in many other contexts. Therefore this is backpatched all the way back to 9.0. To implement this, routines previously private to libpq have been duplicated so that psql can decide what looks like a conninfo/URI string. In back branches, just duplicate the same code all the way back to 9.2, where URIs where introduced; 9.0 and 9.1 have a simpler version. In master, the routines are moved to src/common and renamed.

* Provide real selectivity estimators for inet/cidr operators.Tom Lane2015-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fills in the formerly-stub networksel() and networkjoinsel() estimation functions. Those are used for << <<= >> >>= and && operators on inet/cidr types. The estimation is not perfect, certainly, because we rely on the existing statistics collected for the inet btree operators. But it's a long way better than nothing, and it's not clear that asking ANALYZE to collect separate stats for these operators would be a win. Emre Hasegeli, with reviews from Dilip Kumar and Heikki Linnakangas, and some further hacking by me

* Run pg_upgrade and pg_resetxlog with restricted token on WindowsAndrew Dunstan2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As with initdb these programs need to run with a restricted token, and if they don't pg_upgrade will fail when run as a user with Adminstrator privileges. Backpatch to all live branches. On the development branch the code is reorganized so that the restricted token code is now in a single location. On the stable bramches a less invasive change is made by simply copying the relevant code to pg_upgrade.c and pg_resetxlog.c. Patches and bug report from Muhammad Asif Naeem, reviewed by Michael Paquier, slightly edited by me.
* Fix bogus concurrent use of _hash_getnewbuf() in bucket split code.Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _hash_splitbucket() obtained the base page of the new bucket by calling _hash_getnewbuf(), but it held no exclusive lock that would prevent some other process from calling _hash_getnewbuf() at the same time. This is contrary to _hash_getnewbuf()'s API spec and could in fact cause failures. In practice, we must only call that function while holding write lock on the hash index's metapage. An additional problem was that we'd already modified the metapage's bucket mapping data, meaning that failure to extend the index would leave us with a corrupt index. Fix both issues by moving the _hash_getnewbuf() call to just before we modify the metapage in _hash_expandtable(). Unfortunately there's still a large problem here, which is that we could also incur ENOSPC while trying to get an overflow page for the new bucket. That would leave the index corrupt in a more subtle way, namely that some index tuples that should be in the new bucket might still be in the old one. Fixing that seems substantially more difficult; even preallocating as many pages as we could possibly need wouldn't entirely guarantee that the bucket split would complete successfully. So for today let's just deal with the base case. Per report from Antonin Houska. Back-patch to all active branches.
* Change array_offset to return subscripts, not offsetsAlvaro Herrera2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ... and rename it and its sibling array_offsets to array_position and array_positions, to account for the changed behavior. Having the functions return subscripts better matches existing practice, and is better suited to using the result value as a subscript into the array directly. For one-based arrays, the new definition is identical to what was originally committed. (We use the term "subscript" in the documentation, which is what we use whenever we talk about arrays; but the functions themselves are named using the word "position" to match the standard-defined POSITION() functions.) Author: Pavel Stěhule Behavioral problem noted by Dean Rasheed.
* Fix lost persistence setting during REINDEX INDEXAlvaro Herrera2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ReindexIndex() trusts a parser-built RangeVar with the persistence to use for the new copy of the index; but the parser naturally does not know what's the persistence of the original index. To find out the correct persistence, grab it from relcache. This bug was introduced by commit 85b506bbfc2937c9, and therefore no backpatch is necessary. Bug reported by Thom Brown, analysis and patch by Michael Paquier; test case provided by Fabrízio de Royes Mello.
* Be more careful about printing constants in ruleutils.c.Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding in get_const_expr() tried to avoid quoting integer, float, and numeric literals if at all possible. While that looks nice, it means that dumped expressions might re-parse to something that's semantically equivalent but not the exact same parsetree; for example a FLOAT8 constant would re-parse as a NUMERIC constant with a cast to FLOAT8. Though the result would be the same after constant-folding, this is problematic in certain contexts. In particular, Jeff Davis pointed out that this could cause unexpected failures in ALTER INHERIT operations because of child tables having not-exactly-equivalent CHECK expressions. Therefore, favor correctness over legibility and dump such constants in quotes except in the limited cases where they'll be interpreted as the same type even without any casting. This results in assorted small changes in the regression test outputs, and will affect display of user-defined views and rules similarly. The odds of that causing problems in the field seem non-negligible; given the lack of previous complaints, it seems best not to change this in the back branches.
* Fix rare core dump in BackendIdGetTransactionIds().Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | BackendIdGetTransactionIds() neglected the possibility that the PROC pointer in a ProcState array entry is null. In current usage, this could only crash if the other backend had exited since pgstat_read_current_status saw it as active, which is a pretty narrow window. But it's reachable in the field, per bug #12918 from Vladimir Borodin. Back-patch to 9.4 where the faulty code was introduced.

* Clean up all the cruft after a pg_rewind test run.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | regress_log temp directory was properly .gitignore'd, which may explain why it got left out of the "make clean" action.
* Fix multiple bugs and infelicities in pg_rewind.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | | | | | Bugs all spotted by Coverity, including wrong realloc() size request and memory leaks. Cosmetic improvements by me. The usage of the global variable "filemap" here is still pretty awful, but at least I got rid of the gratuitous aliasing in several routines (which was helping to annoy Coverity, as well as being a bug risk).
* Add vacuum_delay_point call in compute_index_stats's per-sample-row loop.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | | | | | Slow functions in index expressions might cause this loop to take long enough to make it worth being cancellable. Probably it would be enough to call CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS here, but for consistency with other per-sample-row loops in this file, let's use vacuum_delay_point. Report and patch by Jeff Janes. Back-patch to all supported branches.
* Make ginbuild's funcCtx be independent of its tmpCtx.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | Previously the funcCtx was a child of the tmpCtx, but that was broken by commit eaa5808e8ec4e82ce1a87103a6b6f687666e4e4c, which made MemoryContextReset() delete, not reset, child contexts. The behavior of having a tmpCtx reset also clear the other context seems rather dubious anyway, so let's just disentangle them. Per report from Erik Rijkers. In passing, fix badly-inaccurate comments about these contexts.
* Remove a couple other vestigial yylex() declarations.Tom Lane2015-03-29
| | | | | These were workarounds for a long-gone flex bug; all supported versions of flex emit an extern declaration as expected.
* Add a pager_min_lines setting to psqlAndrew Dunstan2015-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | If set, the pager will not be used unless this many lines are to be displayed, even if that is more than the screen depth. Default is zero, meaning it's disabled. There is probably more work to be done in giving the user control over when the pager is used, particularly when wide output forces use of the pager regardless of how many lines there are, but this is a start.

* Fix GiST index-only scans for opclasses with different storage type.Heikki Linnakangas2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | We cannot use the index's tuple descriptor directly to describe the index tuples returned in an index-only scan. That's because the index might use a different datatype for the values stored on disk than the type originally indexed. As long as they were both pass-by-ref, it worked, but will not work for pass-by-value types of different sizes. I noticed this as a crash when I started hacking a patch to add fetch methods to btree_gist.
* Tweak __attribute__-wrapping macros for better pgindent results.Tom Lane2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This improves on commit bbfd7edae5aa5ad5553d3c7e102f2e450d4380d4 by making two simple changes: * pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn(). Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed(). This reduces pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them. * attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not definitions. Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts, which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent but often were outright wrong anyway. (It does little good to put a noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.) In any case, if we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns. I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
* Add support for index-only scans in GiST.Heikki Linnakangas2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new GiST opclass method, 'fetch', which is used to reconstruct the original Datum from the value stored in the index. Also, the 'canreturn' index AM interface function gains a new 'attno' argument. That makes it possible to use index-only scans on a multi-column index where some of the opclasses support index-only scans but some do not. This patch adds support in the box and point opclasses. Other opclasses can added later as follow-on patches (btree_gist would be particularly interesting). Anastasia Lubennikova, with additional fixes and modifications by me.

* Centralize definition of integer limits.Andres Freund2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several submitted and even committed patches have run into the problem that C89, our baseline, does not provide minimum/maximum values for various integer datatypes. C99's stdint.h does, but we can't rely on it. Several parts of the code defined limits locally, so instead centralize the definitions to c.h. This patch also changes the more obvious usages of literal limit values; there's more places that could be changed, but it's less clear whether it's beneficial to change those.

* Return ObjectAddress in many ALTER TABLE sub-routinesAlvaro Herrera2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit a2e35b53c39b2a, most CREATE and ALTER commands return the ObjectAddress of the affected object. This is useful for event triggers to try to figure out exactly what happened. This patch extends this idea a bit further to cover ALTER TABLE as well: an auxiliary ObjectAddress is returned for each of several subcommands of ALTER TABLE. This makes it possible to decode with precision what happened during execution of any ALTER TABLE command; for instance, which constraint was added by ALTER TABLE ADD CONSTRAINT, or which parent got dropped from the parents list by ALTER TABLE NO INHERIT. As with the previous patch, there is no immediate user-visible change here. This is all really just continuing what c504513f83a9ee8 started. Reviewed by Stephen Frost.
* Upgrade src/port/rint.c to be POSIX-compliant.Tom Lane2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The POSIX spec says that rint() rounds halfway cases to nearest even. Our substitute implementation failed to do that, rather rounding halfway cases away from zero; and it also got some other cases (such as minus zero) wrong. This led to observable cross-platform differences, as reported in bug #12885 from Rich Schaaf; in particular, casting from float to int didn't honor round-to-nearest-even on builds using rint.c. Implement something that attempts to cover all cases per spec, and add some simple regression tests so that we'll notice if any platforms still get this wrong. Although this is a bug fix, no back-patch, as a behavioral change in the back branches was agreed not to be a good idea. Pedro Gimeno Fortea, reviewed by Michael Paquier and myself
* Reduce pinning and buffer content locking for btree scans.Kevin Grittner2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Even though the main benefit of the Lehman and Yao algorithm for btrees is that no locks need be held between page reads in an index search, we were holding a buffer pin on each leaf page after it was read until we were ready to read the next one. The reason was so that we could treat this as a weak lock to create an "interlock" with vacuum's deletion of heap line pointers, even though our README file pointed out that this was not necessary for a scan using an MVCC snapshot. The main goal of this patch is to reduce the blocking of vacuum processes by in-progress btree index scans (including a cursor which is idle), but the code rearrangement also allows for one less buffer content lock to be taken when a forward scan steps from one page to the next, which results in a small but consistent performance improvement in many workloads. This patch leaves behavior unchanged for some cases, which can be addressed separately so that each case can be evaluated on its own merits. These unchanged cases are when a scan uses a non-MVCC snapshot, an index-only scan, and a scan of a btree index for which modifications are not WAL-logged. If later patches allow all of these cases to drop the buffer pin after reading a leaf page, then the btree vacuum process can be simplified; it will no longer need the "super-exclusive" lock to delete tuples from a page.

* Fix bug for array-formatted identities of user mappingsAlvaro Herrera2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | I failed to realize that server names reported in the object args array would get quoted, which is wrong; remove that, making sure that it's only quoted in the string-formatted identity. This bug was introduced by my commit cf34e373, which was backpatched, but since object name/args arrays are new in commit a676201490c8, there is no need to backpatch this any further.

* Fix ExecOpenScanRelation to take a lock on a ROW_MARK_COPY relation.Tom Lane2015-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ExecOpenScanRelation assumed that any relation listed in the ExecRowMark list has been locked by InitPlan; but this is not true if the rel's markType is ROW_MARK_COPY, which is possible if it's a foreign table. In most (possibly all) cases, failure to acquire a lock here isn't really problematic because the parser, planner, or plancache would have taken the appropriate lock already. In principle though it might leave us vulnerable to working with a relation that we hold no lock on, and in any case if the executor isn't depending on previously-taken locks otherwise then it should not do so for ROW_MARK_COPY relations. Noted by Etsuro Fujita. Back-patch to all active versions, since the inconsistency has been there a long time. (It's almost certainly irrelevant in 9.0, since that predates foreign tables, but the code's still wrong on its own terms.)
* Apply table and domain CHECK constraints in name order.Tom Lane2015-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, CHECK constraints of the same scope were checked in whatever order they happened to be read from pg_constraint. (Usually, but not reliably, this would be creation order for domain constraints and reverse creation order for table constraints, because of differing implementation details.) Nondeterministic results of this sort are problematic at least for testing purposes, and in discussion it was agreed to be a violation of the principle of least astonishment. Therefore, borrow the principle already established for triggers, and apply such checks in name order (using strcmp() sort rules). This lets users control the check order if they have a mind to. Domain CHECK constraints still follow the rule of checking lower nested domains' constraints first; the name sort only applies to multiple constraints attached to the same domain. In passing, I failed to resist the temptation to wordsmith a bit in create_domain.sgml. Apply to HEAD only, since this could result in a behavioral change in existing applications, and the potential regression test failures have not actually been observed in our buildfarm.

* Don't delay replication for less than recovery_min_apply_delay's resolution.Andres Freund2015-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recovery delays are implemented by waiting on a latch, and latches take milliseconds as a parameter. The required amount of waiting was computed using microsecond resolution though and the wait loop's abort condition was checking the delay in microseconds as well. This could lead to short spurts of busy looping when the overall wait time was below a millisecond, but above 0 microseconds. Instead just formulate the wait loop's abort condition in millisecond granularity as well. Given that that's recovery_min_apply_delay resolution, it seems harmless to not wait for less than a millisecond. Backpatch to 9.4 where recovery_min_apply_delay was introduced.

* Allow foreign tables to participate in inheritance.Tom Lane2015-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Foreign tables can now be inheritance children, or parents. Much of the system was already ready for this, but we had to fix a few things of course, mostly in the area of planner and executor handling of row locks. As side effects of this, allow foreign tables to have NOT VALID CHECK constraints (and hence to accept ALTER ... VALIDATE CONSTRAINT), and to accept ALTER SET STORAGE and ALTER SET WITH/WITHOUT OIDS. Continuing to disallow these things would've required bizarre and inconsistent special cases in inheritance behavior. Since foreign tables don't enforce CHECK constraints anyway, a NOT VALID one is a complete no-op, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't allow it. And it's possible that some FDWs might have use for SET STORAGE or SET WITH OIDS, though doubtless they will be no-ops for most. An additional change in support of this is that when a ModifyTable node has multiple target tables, they will all now be explicitly identified in EXPLAIN output, for example: Update on pt1 (cost=0.00..321.05 rows=3541 width=46) Update on pt1 Foreign Update on ft1 Foreign Update on ft2 Update on child3 -> Seq Scan on pt1 (cost=0.00..0.00 rows=1 width=46) -> Foreign Scan on ft1 (cost=100.00..148.03 rows=1170 width=46) -> Foreign Scan on ft2 (cost=100.00..148.03 rows=1170 width=46) -> Seq Scan on child3 (cost=0.00..25.00 rows=1200 width=46) This was done mainly to provide an unambiguous place to attach "Remote SQL" fields, but it is useful for inherited updates even when no foreign tables are involved.
