Michael Paquier 770eca3adf pg_upgrade: Fix quoting of some arguments in pg_ctl command
The previous coding forgot to apply shell quoting to the socket
directory and the data folder, leading to failures when running
pg_upgrade.  This refactors the code generating the pg_ctl command
starting clusters to use a more correct shell quoting.  Failures are
easier to trigger in 12 and newer versions by using a value of
--socketdir that includes quotes, but it is also possible to cause
failures with quotes included in the default socket directory used by
pg_upgrade or the data folders of the clusters involved in the
upgrade.

As 9.4 is going to be EOL'd with the next minor release, nobody is
likely going to upgrade to it now so this branch is not included in the
set of branches fixed.

Tom Lane baf487123a Store the deletion horizon XID for a deleted GIN page on the right page.
Commit b10714080 moved the GinPageSetDeleteXid() call to a spot where
the "page" variable was pointing to the wrong page, causing the XID
to be inserted on a page that's not being deleted, thus allowing later
GinPageIsRecyclable tests to recycle the deleted page too soon.

It might be a good idea to stop using the single "page" variable for
multiple purposes in this function.  But for the moment I just moved
the GinPageSetDeleteXid() call down beside the GinPageSetDeleted()
call, which seems like a more logical place for it anyway.

hasn't made it into any release yet.)

Alvaro Herrera 2c80a656c2 Fix failure to create FKs correctly in partitions
On a multi-level partioned table, when adding a partition not directly
connected to the root table, foreign key constraints referencing the
root were not cloned to the new partition, leading to the FK being
possibly inadvertently violated later on.

This was caused by fuzzy thinking in CloneFkReferenced (commit
f56f8f8da6): it was skipping constraints marked as having parents on
the theory that cloning those would create duplicates; but that's only
correct for the top level of the partitioning hierarchy.  For levels
below that one, such constraints must still be considered and only
skipped if later on we see that we'd create duplicates.  Apparently, I
(Álvaro) wrote the comments right but the code implemented something
slightly different.

Fujii Masao 598b466e80 Fix bug in Tid scan.
Commit 147e3722f7 changed Tid scan so that it calls table_beginscan()
and uses the scan option for seq scan. This change caused two issues.

(1) The change caused Tid scan to take a predicate lock on the entire
       relation in serializable transaction even when relation-level
       lock is not necessary. This could lead to an unexpected
       serialization error.

(2) The change caused Tid scan to increment the number of seq_scan
       in pg_stat_*_tables views even though it's not seq scan. This
       could confuse the users.

This commit adds the scan option for Tid scan and makes Tid scan
use it, to avoid those issues.

Fujii Masao 3d214a8e5b Fix bug in LWLock statistics mechanism.
Previously PostgreSQL built with -DLWLOCK_STATS could report
more than one LWLock statistics entries for the same backend
process and the same LWLock. This is strange and only one
statistics should be output in that case, instead.

The cause of this issue is that the key variable used for
LWLock stats hash table was not fully initialized. The key
consists of two fields and they were initialized. But
the following 4 bytes allocated in the key variable for
the alignment was not initialized. So even if the same key
was specified, hash_search(HASH_ENTER) could not find
the existing entry for that key and created new one.

This commit fixes this issue by initializing the key
variable with zero. As the side effect of this commit,
the volume of LWLock statistics output would be reduced
very much.

Andrew Gierth 0e37489ed6 Force tuple conversion when the source has missing attributes.
Tuple conversion incorrectly concluded that no conversion was needed
as long as all the attributes lined up. But if the source tuple has a
missing attribute (from addition of a column with default), then the
destination tupdesc might not reflect the same default. The typical
symptom was that the affected columns would be unexpectedly NULL.

Repair by always forcing conversion if the source has missing
attributes, which will be filled in by the deform operation. (In
theory we could optimize for when the destination has the same
default, but that seemed overkill.)

Tom Lane 9a85860e12 Fix handling of "Subplans Removed" field in EXPLAIN output.
Commit 499be013d added this field in a rather poorly-thought-through
manner, with the result being that rather than being a field of the
Append or MergeAppend plan node as intended (and as it seems to be,
in text format), it was actually an element of the "Plans" subgroup.
At least in JSON format, that's flat out invalid syntax, because
"Plans" is an array not an object.

While it's not hard to move the generation of the field so that it
appears where it's supposed to, this does result in a visible change
in field order in text format, in cases where a Append or MergeAppend
plan node has any InitPlans attached.  That's slightly annoying to
do in stable branches; but the alternative of continuing to emit
broken non-text formats seems worse.

Also, since the set of fields emitted is not supposed to be
data-dependent in non-text formats, make sure that "Subplans Removed"
appears in Append and MergeAppend nodes even when it's zero, in those
formats.  (The previous coding made it look like it could appear in
some other node types such as BitmapAnd, but we don't actually support
runtime pruning there, so don't emit it in those cases.)

Tom Lane 0c84199f71 Fix parallel pg_dump/pg_restore for failure to create worker processes.
If we failed to fork a worker process, or create a communication pipe
for one, WaitForTerminatingWorkers would suffer an assertion failure
if assert-enabled, otherwise crash or go into an infinite loop.  This
was a consequence of not accounting for the startup condition where
we've not yet forked all the workers.

The original bug was that ParallelBackupStart would set workerStatus to
WRKR_IDLE before it had successfully forked a worker.  I made things
worse in commit b7b8cc0cf by not understanding the undocumented fact
that the WRKR_TERMINATED state was also meant to represent the case
where a worker hadn't been started yet: I changed enum T_WorkerStatus
so that *all* the worker slots were initially in WRKR_IDLE state.  But
this wasn't any more broken in practice, since even one slot in the
wrong state would keep WaitForTerminatingWorkers from terminating.

In v10 and later, introduce an explicit T_WorkerStatus value for
worker-not-started, in hopes of preventing future oversights of the
same ilk.  Before that, just document that WRKR_TERMINATED is supposed
to cover that case (partly because it wasn't actively broken, and
partly because the enum is exposed outside parallel.c in those branches,
so there's microscopically more risk involved in changing it).
In all branches, introduce a WORKER_IS_RUNNING status test macro
to hide which T_WorkerStatus values mean that, and be more careful
not to access ParallelSlot fields till we're sure they're valid.

Advancing a physical replication slot with pg_replication_slot_advance()
did not mark the slot as dirty if any advancing was done, preventing the
follow-up checkpoint to flush the slot data to disk.  This caused the
advancing to be lost even on clean restarts.  This does not happen for
logical slots as any advancing marked the slot as dirty.  Per

of a crash the slot may move backwards to a past LSN.  This property is
kept and more documentation is added about that.

Tom Lane 87fed2a197 Fix dangling pointer in EvalPlanQual machinery.
EvalPlanQualStart() supposed that it could re-use the relsubs_rowmark
and relsubs_done arrays from a prior instantiation.  But since they are
allocated in the es_query_cxt of the recheckestate, that's just wrong;
EvalPlanQualEnd() will blow away that storage.  Therefore we were using
storage that could have been reallocated to something else, causing all
sorts of havoc.

I think this was modeled on the old code's handling of es_epqTupleSlot,
but since the code was anyway clearing the arrays at re-use, there's
clearly no expectation of importing any outside state.  So it's just
a dubious savings of a couple of pallocs, which is negligible compared
to setting up a new planstate tree.  Therefore, just allocate the
arrays always.  (I moved the allocations slightly for readability.)

In principle this bug could cause a problem whenever EPQ rechecks are
needed in more than one target table of a ModifyTable plan node.
In practice it seems not quite so easy to trigger as that; I couldn't
readily duplicate a crash with a partitioned target table, for instance.
That's probably down to incidental choices about when to free or
reallocate stuff.  The added isolation test case does seem to reliably
show an assertion failure, though.

In future, if we need to use match bits in parallel joins, we might
want to consider setting them only if not already set.

Tom Lane bad4943802 Fix EXPLAIN (SETTINGS) to follow policy about when to print empty fields.
In non-TEXT output formats, the "Settings" field should appear when
requested, even if it would be empty.

Also, get rid of the premature optimization of counting all the
GUC_EXPLAIN variables at startup.  Since there was no provision for
adjusting that count later, all it'd take would be some extension marking
a parameter as GUC_EXPLAIN to risk an assertion failure or memory stomp.
We could make get_explain_guc_options() count those variables on-the-fly,
or dynamically resize its array ... but TBH I do not think that making a
transient array of pointers a bit smaller is worth any extra complication,
especially when you consider all the other transient space EXPLAIN eats.
So just allocate that array at the max possible size.

In HEAD, also add some regression test coverage for this feature.

Because of the memory-stomp hazard, back-patch to v12 where this
feature was added.

Tom Lane 7294f99a0b In postgres_fdw, don't try to ship MULTIEXPR updates to remote server.
In a statement like "UPDATE remote_tab SET (x,y) = (SELECT ...)",
we'd conclude that the statement could be directly executed remotely,
because the sub-SELECT is in a resjunk tlist item that's not examined
for shippability.  Currently that ends up crashing if the sub-SELECT
contains any remote Vars.  Prevent the crash by deeming MULTIEXEC
Params to be unshippable.

This is a bit of a brute-force solution, since if the sub-SELECT
*doesn't* contain any remote Vars, the current execution technology
would work; but that's not a terribly common use-case for this syntax,
I think.  In any case, we generally don't try to ship sub-SELECTs, so
it won't surprise anybody that this doesn't end up as a remote direct
update.  I'd be inclined to see if that general limitation can be fixed
before worrying about this case further.

Per report from Lukáš Sobotka.

Back-patch to 9.6.  9.5 had MULTIEXPR, but we didn't try to perform
remote direct updates then, so the case didn't arise anyway.

Tom Lane f309c812ed Fix an oversight in commit 4c70098ff.
I had supposed that the from_char_seq_search() call sites were
all passing the constant arrays you'd expect them to pass ...
but on looking closer, the one for DY format was passing the
days[] array not days_short[].  This accidentally worked because
the day abbreviations in English are all the same as the first
three letters of the full day names.  However, once we took out
the "maximum comparison length" logic, it stopped working.

As penance for that oversight, add regression test cases covering
this, as well as every other switch case in DCH_from_char() that
was not reached according to the code coverage report.

Also, fold the DCH_RM and DCH_rm cases into one --- now that
seq_search is case independent, there's no need to pass different
comparison arrays for those cases.

Back-patch, as the previous commit was.

Tom Lane be13f227fe Clean up formatting.c's logic for matching constant strings.
seq_search(), which is used to match input substrings to constants
such as month and day names, had a lot of bizarre and unnecessary
behaviors.  It was mostly possible to avert our eyes from that before,
but we don't want to duplicate those behaviors in the upcoming patch
to allow recognition of non-English month and day names.  So it's time
to clean this up.  In particular:

* seq_search scribbled on the input string, which is a pretty dangerous
thing to do, especially in the badly underdocumented way it was done here.
Fortunately the input string is a temporary copy, but that was being made
three subroutine levels away, making it something easy to break
accidentally.  The behavior is externally visible nonetheless, in the form
of odd case-folding in error reports about unrecognized month/day names.
The scribbling is evidently being done to save a few calls to pg_tolower,
but that's such a cheap function (at least for ASCII data) that it's
pretty pointless to worry about.  In HEAD I switched it to be
pg_ascii_tolower to ensure it is cheap in all cases; but there are corner
cases in Turkish where this'd change behavior, so leave it as pg_tolower
in the back branches.

* seq_search insisted on knowing the case form (all-upper, all-lower,
or initcap) of the constant strings, so that it didn't have to case-fold
them to perform case-insensitive comparisons.  This likewise seems like
excessive micro-optimization, given that pg_tolower is certainly very
cheap for ASCII data.  It seems unsafe to assume that we know the case
form that will come out of pg_locale.c for localized month/day names, so
it's better just to define the comparison rule as "downcase all strings
before comparing".  (The choice between downcasing and upcasing is
arbitrary so far as English is concerned, but it might not be in other
locales, so follow citext's lead here.)

* seq_search also had a parameter that'd cause it to report a match
after a maximum number of characters, even if the constant string were
longer than that.  This was not actually used because no caller passed
a value small enough to cut off a comparison.  Replicating that behavior
for localized month/day names seems expensive as well as useless, so
let's get rid of that too.

* from_char_seq_search used the maximum-length parameter to truncate
the input string in error reports about not finding a matching name.
This leads to rather confusing reports in many cases.  Worse, it is
outright dangerous if the input string isn't all-ASCII, because we
risk truncating the string in the middle of a multibyte character.
That'd lead either to delivering an illegible error message to the
client, or to encoding-conversion failures that obscure the actual
data problem.  Get rid of that in favor of truncating at whitespace
if any (a suggestion due to Alvaro Herrera).

In addition to fixing these things, I const-ified the input string
pointers of DCH_from_char and its subroutines, to make sure there
aren't any other scribbling-on-input problems.

The risk of generating a badly-encoded error message seems like
enough of a bug to justify back-patching, so patch all supported
branches.

Michael Paquier 817a1b88ac Fix concurrent indexing operations with temporary tables
Attempting to use CREATE INDEX, DROP INDEX or REINDEX with CONCURRENTLY
on a temporary relation with ON COMMIT actions triggered unexpected
errors because those operations use multiple transactions internally to
complete their work.  Here is for example one confusing error when using
ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS:
ERROR:  index "foo" already contains data

Issues related to temporary relations and concurrent indexing are fixed
in this commit by enforcing the non-concurrent path to be taken for
temporary relations even if using CONCURRENTLY, transparently to the
user.  Using a non-concurrent path does not matter in practice as locks
cannot be taken on a temporary relation by a session different than the
one owning the relation, and the non-concurrent operation is more
effective.

The problem exists with REINDEX since v12 with the introduction of
CONCURRENTLY, and with CREATE/DROP INDEX since CONCURRENTLY exists for
those commands.  In all supported versions, this caused only confusing
error messages to be generated.  Note that with REINDEX, it was also
possible to issue a REINDEX CONCURRENTLY for a temporary relation owned
by a different session, leading to a server crash.

The idea to enforce transparently the non-concurrent code path for
temporary relations comes originally from Andres Freund.

Andres Freund 21fdfd0e8d Fix edge case leading to agg transitions skipping ExecAggTransReparent() calls.
The code checking whether an aggregate transition value needs to be
reparented into the current context has always only compared the
transition return value with the previous transition value by datum,
i.e. without regard for NULLness.  This normally works, because when
the transition function returns NULL (via fcinfo->isnull), it'll
return a value that won't be the same as its input value.

But there's no hard requirement that that's the case. And it turns
out, it's possible to hit this case (see discussion or reproducers),
leading to a non-null transition value not being reparented, followed
by a crash caused by that.

Instead of adding another comparison of NULLness, instead have
ExecAggTransReparent() ensure that pergroup->transValue ends up as 0
when the new transition value is NULL. That avoids having to add an
additional branch to the much more common cases of the transition
function returning the old transition value (which is a pointer in
this case), and when the new value is different, but not NULL.

In branches since 69c3936a14, also deduplicate the reparenting code
between the expression evaluation based transitions, and the path for
ordered aggregates.

sigTermHandler() tried to be careful to invoke only operations that
are safe to do in a signal handler.  But for some reason we forgot
that exit(3) is not among those, because it calls atexit handlers
that might do various random things.  (pg_dump itself installs no
atexit handlers, but e.g. OpenSSL does.)  That led to crashes or
lockups when attempting to terminate a parallel dump or restore
via a signal.

Fix by calling _exit() instead.

Heikki Linnakangas fd436bba01 Fix crash in BRIN inclusion op functions, due to missing datum copy.
The BRIN add_value() and union() functions need to make a longer-lived
copy of the argument, if they want to store it in the BrinValues struct
also passed as argument. The functions for the "inclusion operator
classes" used with box, range and inet types didn't take into account
that the union helper function might return its argument as is, without
making a copy. Check for that case, and make a copy if necessary. That
case arises at least with the range_union() function, when one of the
arguments is an 'empty' range:

CREATE TABLE brintest (n numrange);
CREATE INDEX brinidx ON brintest USING brin (n);
INSERT INTO brintest VALUES ('empty');
INSERT INTO brintest VALUES (numrange(0, 2^1000::numeric));
INSERT INTO brintest VALUES ('(-1, 0)');

SELECT brin_desummarize_range('brinidx', 0);
SELECT brin_summarize_range('brinidx', 0);
