      In PostgresNode.pm, don't pass SQL to psql on the command line · 11e9caff
      Andrew Dunstan authored
      The Msys shell mangles certain patterns in its command line, so avoid
      handing arbitrary SQL to psql on the command line and instead use
      IPC::Run's redirection facility for stdin. This pattern is already
      mostly whats used, but query_poll_until() was not doing the right thing.
      
      Problem discovered on the buildfarm when a new TAP test failed on msys.

      Fix incorrect permissions on pg_subscription. · 3590680b
      Tom Lane authored
      The documented intent is for all columns except subconninfo to be
      publicly readable.  However, this has been overlooked twice.
      subsynccommit has never been readable since it was introduced,
      nor has the oid column (which is important for joining).
      
      Given the lack of previous complaints, it's not clear that it's
      worth doing anything about this in the back branches.  But there's
      still time to fix it inexpensively for v14.

      Reduce risks of conflicts in internal queries of REFRESH MATVIEW CONCURRENTLY · 187682c3
      Michael Paquier authored
      The internal SQL queries used by REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY
      include some aliases for its diff and temporary relations with
      rather-generic names: diff, newdata, newdata2 and mv.  Depending on the
      queries used for the materialized view, using CONCURRENTLY could lead to
      some internal failures if the matview query and those internal aliases
      conflict.
      
      Those names have been chosen in 841c29c8.  This commit switches instead
      to a naming pattern which is less likely going to cause conflicts, based
      on an idea from Thomas Munro, by appending _$ to those aliases.  This is
      not perfect as those new names could still conflict, but at least it has
      the advantage to keep the code readable and simple while reducing the
      likelihood of conflicts to be close to zero.

      The previous arrangement was just one big list, and the internal order
      was not all consistent either.  Now arrange the options by group and

      Standardize usages of appendStringInfo and appendPQExpBuffer · f736e188
      David Rowley authored
      Fix a few places that were using appendStringInfo() when they should have
      been using appendStringInfoString().  Also some cases of
      appendPQExpBuffer() that would have been better suited to use
      appendPQExpBufferChar(), and finally, some places that used
      appendPQExpBuffer() when appendPQExpBufferStr() would have suited better.
      
      There are no bugs are being fixed here.  The aim is just to make the code
      use the most optimal function for the job.
      
      All the code being changed here is new to PG14.  It makes sense to fix
      these before we branch for PG15.  There are a few other places that we
      could fix, but those cases are older code so fixing those seems less
      worthwhile as it may cause unnecessary back-patching pain in the future.

      Ignore more environment variables in TAP tests · 8279f68a
      Michael Paquier authored
      Various environment variables were not getting reset in the TAP tests,
      which would cause failures depending on the tests or the environment
      variables involved.  For example, PGSSL{MAX,MIN}PROTOCOLVERSION could
      cause failures in the SSL tests.  Even worse, a junk value of
      PGCLIENTENCODING makes a server startup fail.  The list of variables
      reset is adjusted in each stable branch depending on what is supported.
      
      While on it, simplify a bit the code per a suggestion from Andrew
      Dunstan, using a list of variables instead of doing single deletions.

      Reject SELECT ... GROUP BY GROUPING SETS (()) FOR UPDATE. · 1103033a
      Tom Lane authored
      This case should be disallowed, just as FOR UPDATE with a plain
      GROUP BY is disallowed; FOR UPDATE only makes sense when each row
      of the query result can be identified with a single table row.
      However, we missed teaching CheckSelectLocking() to check
      groupingSets as well as groupClause, so that it would allow
      degenerate grouping sets.  That resulted in a bad plan and
      a null-pointer dereference in the executor.
      
      Looking around for other instances of the same bug, the only one
      I found was in examine_simple_variable().  That'd just lead to
      silly estimates, but it should be fixed too.

      Fix RADIUS error reporting in hba file parsing · 7c544ecd
      Peter Eisentraut authored
      The RADIUS-related checks in parse_hba_line() did not respect elevel
      and did not fill in *err_msg.  Also, verify_option_list_length()
      pasted together error messages in an untranslatable way.  To fix the
      latter, remove the function and do the error checking inline.  It's a
      bit more verbose but only minimally longer, and it makes fixing the
      first two issues straightforward.

      Fix mis-planning of repeated application of a projection. · 6ee41a30
      Tom Lane authored
      create_projection_plan contains a hidden assumption (here made
      explicit by an Assert) that a projection-capable Path will yield a
      projection-capable Plan.  Unfortunately, that assumption is violated
      only a few lines away, by create_projection_plan itself.  This means
      that two stacked ProjectionPaths can yield an outcome where we try to
      jam the upper path's tlist into a non-projection-capable child node,
      resulting in an invalid plan.
      
      There isn't any good reason to have stacked ProjectionPaths; indeed the
      whole concept is faulty, since the set of Vars/Aggs/etc needed by the
      upper one wouldn't necessarily be available in the output of the lower
      one, nor could the lower one create such values if they weren't
      available from its input.  Hence, we can fix this by adjusting
      create_projection_path to strip any top-level ProjectionPath from the
      subpath it's given.  (This amounts to saying "oh, we changed our
      minds about what we need to project here".)
      
      The test case added here only fails in v13 and HEAD; before that, we
      don't attempt to shove the Sort into the parallel part of the plan,
      for reasons that aren't entirely clear to me.  However, all the
      directly-related code looks generally the same as far back as v11,
      where the hazard was introduced (by d7c19e62).  So I've got no faith
      that the same type of bug doesn't exist in v11 and v12, given the
      right test case.  Hence, back-patch the code changes, but not the
      irrelevant test case, into those branches.
      
      Per report from Bas Poot.

      Reduce the range of OIDs reserved for genbki.pl. · a4390abe
      Tom Lane authored
      Commit ab596105 increased FirstBootstrapObjectId from 12000 to 13000,
      but we've had some push-back about that.  It's worrisome to reduce the
      daylight between there and FirstNormalObjectId, because the number of
      OIDs consumed during initdb for collation objects is hard to predict.
      
      We can improve the situation by abandoning the assumption that these
      OIDs must be globally unique.  It should be sufficient for them to be
      unique per-catalog.  (Any code that's unhappy about that is broken
      anyway, since no more than per-catalog uniqueness can be guaranteed
      once the OID counter wraps around.)  With that change, the largest OID
      assigned during genbki.pl (starting from a base of 10000) is a bit
      under 11000.  This allows reverting FirstBootstrapObjectId to 12000
      with reasonable confidence that that will be sufficient for many years
      to come.
      
      We are not, at this time, abandoning the expectation that
      hand-assigned OIDs (below 10000) are globally unique.  Someday that'll
      likely be necessary, but the need seems years away still.
      
      This is late for v14, but it seems worth doing it now so that
      downstream software doesn't have to deal with the consequences of
      a change in FirstBootstrapObjectId.  In any case, we already
      bought into forcing an initdb for beta2, so another catversion
      bump won't hurt.

      Rethink definition of pg_attribute.attcompression. · e6241d8e
      Tom Lane authored
      Redefine '\0' (InvalidCompressionMethod) as meaning "if we need to
      compress, use the current setting of default_toast_compression".
      This allows '\0' to be a suitable default choice regardless of
      datatype, greatly simplifying code paths that initialize tupledescs
      and the like.  It seems like a more user-friendly approach as well,
      because now the default compression choice doesn't migrate into table
      definitions, meaning that changing default_toast_compression is
      usually sufficient to flip an installation's behavior; one needn't
      tediously issue per-column ALTER SET COMPRESSION commands.
      
      Along the way, fix a few minor bugs and documentation issues
      with the per-column-compression feature.  Adopt more robust
      APIs for SetIndexStorageProperties and GetAttributeCompression.
      
      Bump catversion because typical contents of attcompression will now
      be different.  We could get away without doing that, but it seems
      better to ensure v14 installations all agree on this.  (We already
      forced initdb for beta2, anyway.)
