glibc renders random() thread-safe by wrapping a futex lock around it; testing reveals that this limits the performance of pgbench on machines with many CPU cores. Rather than switching to random_r(), which is only available on GNU systems and crashes unless you use undocumented alchemy to initialize the random state properly, switch to our built-in implementation of erand48(), which is both thread-safe and concurrent. Since the list of reasons not to use the operating system's erand48() is getting rather long, rename ours to pg_erand48() (and similarly for our implementations of lrand48() and srand48()) and just always use those. We were already doing this on Cygwin anyway, and the glibc implementation is not quite thread-safe, so pgbench wouldn't be able to use that either. Per discussion with Tom Lane.

This kluge was inserted in a spot apparently chosen at random: the lock manager's state is not yet fully set up for the wait, and in particular LockWaitCancel hasn't been armed by setting lockAwaited, so the ProcLock will not get cleaned up if the ereport is thrown. This seems to not cause any observable problem in trivial test cases, because LockReleaseAll will silently clean up the debris; but I was able to cause failures with tests involving subtransactions. Fixes breakage induced by commit c85c9414. Back-patch to all affected branches.

It was initialized in the wrong place and to the wrong value. With bad luck this could result in incorrect query-cancellation failures in hot standby sessions, should a HS backend be holding pin on buffer number 1 while trying to acquire a lock.

Testing shows that the overhead of acquiring and releasing SInvalReadLock and msgNumLock on high-core count boxes can waste a lot of CPU time and hurt performance. This patch adds a per-backend flag that allows us to skip all that locking in most cases. Further testing shows that this improves performance even when sinval traffic is very high. Patch by me. Review and testing by Noah Misch.

pg_backup_db.c contained a mini SQL lexer with which it tried to identify boundaries between SQL commands, but that code was not designed to cope with standard_conforming_strings, and would get the wrong answer if a backslash immediately precedes a closing single quote in such a string, as per report from Julian Mehnle. The bug only affects direct-to-database restores from archive files made with standard_conforming_strings = on. Rather than complicating the code some more to try to fix that, let's just rip it all out. The only reason it was needed was to cope with COPY data embedded into ordinary archive entries, which was a layout that was used only for about the first three weeks of the archive format's existence, and never in any production release of pg_dump. Instead, just rely on the archive file layout to tell us whether we're printing COPY data or not. This bug represents a data corruption hazard in all releases in which standard_conforming_strings can be turned on, ie 8.2 and later, so back-patch to all supported branches.

It turns out to be possible to link against a libxml2.so that does this differently than the version we configured and built against, so we need a runtime check to avoid bizarre behavior. Per report from Bernd Helmle. Patch by Florian Pflug.

On balance, the need to cover this case changes my mind in favor of pushing all error-message generation duties into the two fe-secure.c routines. So do it that way.

In many cases, pqsecure_read/pqsecure_write set up useful error messages, which were then overwritten with useless ones by their callers. Fix this by defining the responsibility to set an error message to be entirely that of the lower-level function when using SSL. Back-patch to 8.3; the code is too different in 8.2 to be worth the trouble.

This disables an entirely unnecessary "sanity check" that causes failures in nonblocking mode, because OpenSSL complains if we move or compact the write buffer. The only actual requirement is that we not modify pending data once we've attempted to send it, which we don't. Per testing and research by Martin Pihlak, though this fix is a lot simpler than his patch. I put the same change into the backend, although it's less clear whether it's necessary there. We do use nonblock mode in some situations in streaming replication, so seems best to keep the same behavior in the backend as in libpq. Back-patch to all supported releases.

Also change "switch" to "arg" because "switch" is a bit of a sloppy term. So the environment variable is called PSQL_EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG. Set "+" as hardcoded default value on Unix (since "vi" is the hardcoded default editor), so many users won't have to configure this at all. Move the documentation around a bit to centralize the editor configuration under environment variables, rather than repeating bits of it under every backslash command that invokes an editor.

The original implementation simply did nothing when replacing an existing object during CREATE EXTENSION. The folly of this was exposed by a report from Marc Munro: if the existing object belongs to another extension, we are left in an inconsistent state. We should insist that the object does not belong to another extension, and then add it to the current extension if not already a member.

I broke this in commit 5da79169, which was obviously insufficiently well tested. Add some regression tests in the hope of making future slip-ups more likely to be noticed.

PQsetvalue unnecessarily duplicated the logic in pqAddTuple, and didn't duplicate it exactly either --- pqAddTuple does not care what is in the tuple-pointer array positions beyond the last valid entry, whereas the code in PQsetvalue assumed such positions would contain NULL. This led to possible crashes if PQsetvalue was applied to a PGresult that had previously been enlarged with pqAddTuple, for instance one built from a server query. Fix by relying on pqAddTuple instead of duplicating logic, and not assuming anything about the contents of res->tuples[res->ntups]. Back-patch to 8.4, where PQsetvalue was introduced. Andrew Chernow

Previously, xpath() simply returned an empty array if the expression did not yield a node set. This is useless for expressions that return scalars, such as one with name() at the top level. Arrange to return the scalar value as a single-element xml array, instead. (String values will be suitably escaped.) This change will also cause xpath_exists() to return true, not false, for such expressions. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura

Without this it's possible for the output to not be legal XML, as illustrated by the added regression test cases. NB: this change will need to be called out as an incompatibility in the 9.2 release notes, since it's possible somebody was relying on the old behavior, even though it's clearly wrong.

This requires a new shared catalog, pg_shseclabel. Along the way, fix the security_label regression tests so that they don't monkey with the labels of any pre-existing objects. This is unlikely to matter in practice, since only the label for the "dummy" provider was being manipulated. But this way still seems cleaner. KaiGai Kohei, with fairly extensive hacking by me.

libxml reports some errors (like invalid xmlns attributes) via the error handler hook, but still returns a success indicator to the library caller. This causes us to miss some errors that are important to report. Since the "generic" error handler hook doesn't know whether the message it's getting is for an error, warning, or notice, stop using that and instead start using the "structured" error handler hook, which gets enough information to be useful. While at it, arrange to save and restore the error handler hook setting in each libxml-using function, rather than assuming we can set and forget the hook. This should improve the odds of working nicely with third-party libraries that also use libxml. In passing, volatile-ize some local variables that get modified within PG_TRY blocks. I noticed this while testing with an older gcc version than I'd previously tried to compile xml.c with. Florian Pflug and Tom Lane, with extensive review/testing by Noah Misch
