To do this, we scan GiST two times. In the first pass we make note of empty leaf pages and internal pages. At second pass we scan through internal pages, looking for downlinks to the empty pages. Deleting internal pages is still not supported, like in nbtree, the last child of an internal page is never deleted. That means that if you have a workload where new keys are always inserted to different area than where old keys are removed, the index will still grow without bound. But the rate of growth will be an order of magnitude slower than before. Author: Andrey Borodin Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/B1E4DF12-6CD3-4706-BDBD-BF3283328F60@yandex-team.ru

The set is implemented as a B-tree, with a compact representation at leaf items, using Simple-8b algorithm, so that clusters of nearby values use less memory. The IntegerSet isn't used for anything yet, aside from the test code, but we have two patches in the works that would benefit from this: A patch to allow GiST vacuum to delete empty pages, and a patch to reduce heap VACUUM's memory usage, by storing the list of dead TIDs more efficiently and lifting the 1 GB limit on its size. This includes a unit test module, in src/test/modules/test_integerset. It can be used to verify correctness, as a regression test, but if you run it manully, it can also print memory usage and execution time of some of the tests.

This adds a flag "deterministic" to collations. If that is false, such a collation disables various optimizations that assume that strings are equal only if they are byte-wise equal. That then allows use cases such as case-insensitive or accent-insensitive comparisons or handling of strings with different Unicode normal forms. This functionality is only supported with the ICU provider. At least glibc doesn't appear to have any locales that work in a nondeterministic way, so it's not worth supporting this for the libc provider. The term "deterministic comparison" in this context is from Unicode Technical Standard #10 (https://unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Deterministic_Comparison). This patch makes changes in three areas: - CREATE COLLATION DDL changes and system catalog changes to support this new flag. - Many executor nodes and auxiliary code are extended to track collations. Previously, this code would just throw away collation information, because the eventually-called user-defined functions didn't use it since they only cared about equality, which didn't need collation information. - String data type functions that do equality comparisons and hashing are changed to take the (non-)deterministic flag into account. For comparison, this just means skipping various shortcuts and tie breakers that use byte-wise comparison. For hashing, we first need to convert the input string to a canonical "sort key" using the ICU analogue of strxfrm().

When DefineIndex recurses to create constraints on partitions, it needs to use the value returned by index_constraint_create to set up partition dependencies. However, in the course of fixing the DEPENDENCY_INTERNAL_AUTO mess, commit 1d92a0c9 introduced some code to that function that clobbered the return value, causing the recorded OID to be of the wrong object. Close examination of pg_depend after creating the tables leads to indescribable objects :-( My sin (in commit bdc3d7fa, while preparing for DDL deparsing in event triggers) was to use a variable name for the return value that's typically used for throwaway objects in dependency-setting calls ("referenced"). Fix by changing the variable names to match extended practice (the return value is "myself" rather than "referenced".) The pg_upgrade test notices the problem (in an indirect way: the pg_dump outputs are in different order), but only if you create the objects in a specific way that wasn't being used in the existing tests. Add a stanza to leave some objects around that shows the bug. Catversion bump because preexisting databases might have bogus pg_depend entries.

These commands allow the argument type list to be omitted if there is just one object that matches by name. However, if that syntax was used with DROP IF EXISTS and there was more than one match, you got a "function ... does not exist, skipping" notice message rather than a truthful complaint about the ambiguity. This was basically due to poor factorization and a rats-nest of logic, so refactor the relevant lookup code to make it cleaner. Note that this amounts to narrowing the scope of which sorts of error conditions IF EXISTS will bypass. Per discussion, we only intend it to skip no-such-object cases, not multiple-possible-matches cases. Per bug #15572 from Ash Marath. Although this definitely seems like a bug, it's not clear that people would thank us for changing the behavior in minor releases, so no back-patch.

LDAP servers can be advertised on a network with RFC 2782 DNS SRV records. The OpenLDAP command-line tools automatically try to find servers that way, if no server name is provided by the user. Teach PostgreSQL to do the same using OpenLDAP's support functions, when building with OpenLDAP. For now, we assume that HAVE_LDAP_INITIALIZE (an OpenLDAP extension available since OpenLDAP 2.0 and also present in Apple LDAP) implies that you also have ldap_domain2hostlist() (which arrived in the same OpenLDAP version and is also present in Apple LDAP).

Teach contrib/amcheck's bt_index_parent_check() function to take advantage of the uniqueness property of heapkeyspace indexes in support of a new verification option: non-pivot tuples (non-highkey tuples on the leaf level) can optionally be re-found using a new search for each, that starts from the root page. If a tuple cannot be re-found, report that the index is corrupt. The new "rootdescend" verification option is exhaustive, and can therefore make a call to bt_index_parent_check() take a lot longer. Re-finding tuples during verification is mostly intended as an option for backend developers, since the corruption scenarios that it alone is uniquely capable of detecting seem fairly far-fetched. For example, "rootdescend" verification is much more likely to detect corruption of the least significant byte of a key from a pivot tuple in the root page of a B-Tree that already has at least three levels. Typically, only a few tuples on a cousin leaf page are at risk of "getting overlooked" by index scans in this scenario. The corrupt key in the root page is only slightly corrupt: corrupt enough to give wrong answers to some queries, and yet not corrupt enough to allow the problem to be detected without verifying agreement between the leaf page and the root page, skipping at least one internal page level. The existing bt_index_parent_check() checks never cross more than a single level.

Teach nbtree to give some consideration to how "distinguishing" candidate leaf page split points are. This should not noticeably affect the balance of free space within each half of the split, while still making suffix truncation truncate away significantly more attributes on average. The logic for choosing a leaf split point now uses a fallback mode in the case where the page is full of duplicates and it isn't possible to find even a minimally distinguishing split point. When the page is full of duplicates, the split should pack the left half very tightly, while leaving the right half mostly empty. Our assumption is that logical duplicates will almost always be inserted in ascending heap TID order with v4 indexes. This strategy leaves most of the free space on the half of the split that will likely be where future logical duplicates of the same value need to be placed. The number of cycles added is not very noticeable. This is important because deciding on a split point takes place while at least one exclusive buffer lock is held. We avoid using authoritative insertion scankey comparisons to save cycles, unlike suffix truncation proper. We use a faster binary comparison instead. Note that even pg_upgrade'd v3 indexes make use of these optimizations. Benchmarking has shown that even v3 indexes benefit, despite the fact that suffix truncation will only truncate non-key attributes in INCLUDE indexes. Grouping relatively similar tuples together is beneficial in and of itself, since it reduces the number of leaf pages that must be accessed by subsequent index scans.

Make nbtree treat all index tuples as having a heap TID attribute. Index searches can distinguish duplicates by heap TID, since heap TID is always guaranteed to be unique. This general approach has numerous benefits for performance, and is prerequisite to teaching VACUUM to perform "retail index tuple deletion". Naively adding a new attribute to every pivot tuple has unacceptable overhead (it bloats internal pages), so suffix truncation of pivot tuples is added. This will usually truncate away the "extra" heap TID attribute from pivot tuples during a leaf page split, and may also truncate away additional user attributes. This can increase fan-out, especially in a multi-column index. Truncation can only occur at the attribute granularity, which isn't particularly effective, but works well enough for now. A future patch may add support for truncating "within" text attributes by generating truncated key values using new opclass infrastructure. Only new indexes (BTREE_VERSION 4 indexes) will have insertions that treat heap TID as a tiebreaker attribute, or will have pivot tuples undergo suffix truncation during a leaf page split (on-disk compatibility with versions 2 and 3 is preserved). Upgrades to version 4 cannot be performed on-the-fly, unlike upgrades from version 2 to version 3. contrib/amcheck continues to work with version 2 and 3 indexes, while also enforcing stricter invariants when verifying version 4 indexes. These stricter invariants are the same invariants described by "3.1.12 Sequencing" from the Lehman and Yao paper. A later patch will enhance the logic used by nbtree to pick a split point. This patch is likely to negatively impact performance without smarter choices around the precise point to split leaf pages at. Making these two mostly-distinct sets of enhancements into distinct commits seems like it might clarify their design, even though neither commit is particularly useful on its own. The maximum allowed size of new tuples is reduced by an amount equal to the space required to store an extra MAXALIGN()'d TID in a new high key during leaf page splits. The user-facing definition of the "1/3 of a page" restriction is already imprecise, and so does not need to be revised. However, there should be a compatibility note in the v12 release notes.

Use dedicated struct to represent nbtree insertion scan keys. Having a dedicated struct makes the difference between search type scankeys and insertion scankeys a lot clearer, and simplifies the signature of several related functions. This is based on a suggestion by Andrey Lepikhov. Streamline how unique index insertions cache binary search progress. Cache the state of in-progress binary searches within _bt_check_unique() for later instead of having callers avoid repeating the binary search in an ad-hoc manner. This makes it easy to add a new optimization: _bt_check_unique() now falls out of its loop immediately in the common case where it's already clear that there couldn't possibly be a duplicate. The new _bt_check_unique() scheme makes it a lot easier to manage cached binary search effort afterwards, from within _bt_findinsertloc(). This is needed for the upcoming patch to make nbtree tuples unique by treating heap TID as a final tiebreaker column. Unique key binary searches need to restore lower and upper bounds. They cannot simply continue to use the >= lower bound as the offset to insert at, because the heap TID tiebreaker column must be used in comparisons for the restored binary search (unlike the original _bt_check_unique() binary search, where scankey's heap TID column must be omitted).

Originally, if libpq got a failure (e.g., ECONNRESET) while trying to send data to the server, it would just report that and wash its hands of the matter. It was soon found that that wasn't a very pleasant way of coping with server-initiated disconnections, so we introduced a hack (pqHandleSendFailure) in the code that sends queries to make it peek ahead for server error reports before reporting the send failure. It now emerges that related cases can occur during connection setup; in particular, as of TLS 1.3 it's unsafe to assume that SSL connection failures will be reported by SSL_connect rather than during our first send attempt. We could have fixed that in a hacky way by applying pqHandleSendFailure after a startup packet send failure, but (a) pqHandleSendFailure explicitly disclaims suitability for use in any state except query startup, and (b) the problem still potentially exists for other send attempts in libpq. Instead, let's fix this in a more general fashion by eliminating pqHandleSendFailure altogether, and instead arranging to postpone all reports of send failures in libpq until after we've made an attempt to read and process server messages. The send failure won't be reported at all if we find a server message or detect input EOF. (Note: this removes one of the reasons why libpq typically overwrites, rather than appending to, conn->errorMessage: pqHandleSendFailure needed that behavior so that the send failure report would be replaced if we got a server message or read failure report. Eventually I'd like to get rid of that overwrite behavior altogether, but today is not that day. For the moment, pqSendSome is assuming that its callees will overwrite not append to conn->errorMessage.) Possibly this change should get back-patched someday; but it needs testing first, so let's not consider that till after v12 beta.

Commit 6f6a6d8b introduced a delay of up to 2 seconds if we're trying to request a checkpoint but the checkpointer hasn't started yet (or, much less likely, our kill() call fails). However buildfarm experience shows that that's not quite enough for slow or heavily-loaded machines. There's no good reason to assume that the checkpointer won't start eventually, so we may as well make the timeout much longer, say 60 sec. However, if the caller didn't say CHECKPOINT_WAIT, it seems like a bad idea to be waiting at all, much less for as long as 60 sec. We can remove the need for that, and make this whole thing more robust, by adjusting the code so that the existence of a pending checkpoint request is clear from the contents of shared memory, and making sure that the checkpointer process will notice it at startup even if it did not get a signal. In this way there's no need for a non-CHECKPOINT_WAIT call to wait at all; if it can't send the signal, it can nonetheless assume that the checkpointer will eventually service the request. A potential downside of this change is that "kill -INT" on the checkpointer process is no longer enough to trigger a checkpoint, should anyone be relying on something so hacky. But there's no obvious reason to do it like that rather than issuing a plain old CHECKPOINT command, so we'll assume that nobody is. There doesn't seem to be a way to preserve this undocumented quasi-feature without introducing race conditions. Since a principal reason for messing with this is to prevent intermittent buildfarm failures, back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/27830.1552752475@sss.pgh.pa.us

Running ALTER TABLE on any table will check if a TOAST table needs to be added. On shared tables, this would previously fail, thus effectively disabling ALTER TABLE for those tables. On (non-shared) system catalogs, on the other hand, it would add a TOAST table, even though we don't really want TOAST tables on some system catalogs. In some cases, it would also fail with an error "AccessExclusiveLock required to add toast table.", depending on what locks the ALTER TABLE actions had already taken. So instead, just ignore attempts to add TOAST tables to such tables, outside of bootstrap mode, pretending they don't need one. This allows running ALTER TABLE on such tables without messing up the TOAST situation. Legitimate uses for ALTER TABLE on system catalogs include setting reloptions (say, fillfactor or autovacuum settings). (All this still requires allow_system_table_mods, which is independent of this.) Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/e49f825b-fb25-0bc8-8afc-d5ad895c7975@2ndquadrant.com

Unrecognized attribute names are supposed to be ignored. But the code would error out on an unrecognized attribute value even if it did not recognize the attribute name. So unrecognized attributes wouldn't really be ignored unless the value happened to be one that matched a recognized value. This would break some important cases where the attribute would be processed by ucol_open() directly. Fix that and add a test case. The restructured code should also avoid compiler warnings about initializing a UColAttribute value to -1, because the type might be an unsigned enum. (reported by Andres Freund)

Commit f2dec34e changed things so that printtup's output stringinfo buffer was allocated outside the per-row temporary context, not inside it. This creates a need to free that buffer explicitly when the temp context is freed, but that was overlooked. In most cases, this is all happening inside a portal or executor context that will go away shortly anyhow, but that's not always true. Notably, the stringinfo ends up getting leaked when JDBC uses row-at-a-time fetches. For a query that returns wide rows, that adds up after awhile. Per bug #15700 from Matthias Otterbach.
