The pg_stats view is supposed to be restricted to only show rows about tables the user can read. However, it sometimes can leak information which could not otherwise be seen when row level security is enabled. Fix that by not showing pg_stats rows to users that would be subject to RLS on the table the row is related to. This is done by creating/using the newly introduced SQL visible function, row_security_active(). Along the way, clean up three call sites of check_enable_rls(). The second argument of that function should only be specified as other than InvalidOid when we are checking as a different user than the current one, as in when querying through a view. These sites were passing GetUserId() instead of InvalidOid, which can cause the function to return incorrect results if the current user has the BYPASSRLS privilege and row_security has been set to OFF. Additionally fix a bug causing RI Trigger error messages to unintentionally leak information when RLS is enabled, and other minor cleanup and improvements. Also add WITH (security_barrier) to the definition of pg_stats. Bumped CATVERSION due to new SQL functions and pg_stats view definition. Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was introduced. Reported by Yaroslav. Patch by Joe Conway and Dean Rasheed with review and input by Michael Paquier and Stephen Frost.

While postgres' use of SSL renegotiation is a good idea in theory, it turned out to not work well in practice. The specification and openssl's implementation of it have lead to several security issues. Postgres' use of renegotiation also had its share of bugs. Additionally OpenSSL has a bunch of bugs around renegotiation, reported and open for years, that regularly lead to connections breaking with obscure error messages. We tried increasingly complex workarounds to get around these bugs, but we didn't find anything complete. Since these connection breakages often lead to hard to debug problems, e.g. spuriously failing base backups and significant latency spikes when synchronous replication is used, we have decided to change the default setting for ssl renegotiation to 0 (disabled) in the released backbranches and remove it entirely in 9.5 and master.

Given this it is possible that the buildfarm animals running these tests will be able to capture adequate logging to allow diagnosis of failures.

This code was originally written as part of parallel query effort, but it seems to have independent value, because if we make one decision about where to get a PGPROC when we allocate and then put it back on a different list at backend-exit time, bad things happen. This isn't just a theoretical risk; we fixed an actual problem of this type in commit e280c630.

join_clause_is_movable_into() is approximate, in the sense that it might sometimes return "false" when actually it would be valid to push the given join clause down to the specified level. This is okay ... but there was an Assert in get_joinrel_parampathinfo() that's only safe if the answers are always exact. Comment out the Assert, and add a bunch of commentary to clarify what's going on. Per fuzz testing by Andreas Seltenreich. The added regression test is a pretty silly query, but it's based on his crasher example. Back-patch to 9.2 where the faulty logic was introduced.

This was broken in 1bc90f7a, which removed the thread-emulation. With modest -j and -c settings the result were usually close enough that you wouldn't notice it easily, but with a high enough thread count it would access uninitialized memory and crash. Per report from Andres Freund offlist.

To avoid a race condition where the relation being COPY'd could be changed into a view or otherwise modified, keep the original lock on the relation. Further, fully qualify the relation when building the query up. Also remove the poorly thought-out Assert() and check the entire relationOids list as, post-RLS, there can certainly be multiple relations involved and the planner does not guarantee their ordering. Per discussion with Noah and Andres. Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was introduced.

Fix additional bogosity in commit 9029f4b3. Include the BackendSslStatusBuffer in the BackendStatusShmemSize calculation, avoid ugly and error-prone casts to char* and back, put related code stanzas into a consistent order (and fix a couple of previous instances of that sin). All cosmetic except for the size oversight.

In GIN, an all-zeros page would be leaked forever, and never reused. Just add them to the FSM in vacuum, and they will be reinitialized when grabbed from the FSM. On master and 9.5, attempting to access the page's opaque struct also caused an assertion failure, although that was otherwise harmless. Reported by Jeff Janes. Backpatch to all supported versions.

SP-GiST initialized an all-zeros page at vacuum, but that was not WAL-logged, which is not safe. You might get a torn page write, when it gets flushed to disk, and end-up with a half-initialized index page. To fix, leave it in the all-zeros state, and add it to the FSM. It will be initialized when reused. Also don't set the page-deleted flag when recycling an empty page. That was also not WAL-logged, and a torn write of that would cause the page to have an invalid checksum. Backpatch to 9.2, where SP-GiST indexes were added.

I missed a restriction that commit f4abd024 should have enforced: we can't pull up an empty-FROM subquery if it's under an outer join, because then we'd need to wrap its output columns in PlaceHolderVars. As the code currently stands, the PHVs end up with empty relid sets, which doesn't work (and is correctly caught by an Assert). It's possible that this could be fixed by assigning the PHVs the relid sets of the parent FromExpr/JoinExpr, but getting that to work is more complication than I care to add right now; indeed it's likely that we'll never bother, since pulling up empty-FROM subqueries is a rather marginal optimization anyway. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to 9.5 where the faulty code was added.

The planner generally expects that the estimated rowcount of any relation is at least one row, *unless* it has been proven empty by constraint exclusion or similar mechanisms, which is marked by installing a dummy path as the rel's cheapest path (cf. IS_DUMMY_REL). When I split up allpaths.c's processing of base rels into separate set_base_rel_sizes and set_base_rel_pathlists steps, the intention was that dummy rels would get marked as such during the "set size" step; this is what justifies an Assert in indxpath.c's get_loop_count that other relations should either be dummy or have positive rowcount. Unfortunately I didn't get that quite right for append relations: if all the child rels have been proven empty then set_append_rel_size would come up with a rowcount of zero, which is correct, but it didn't then do set_dummy_rel_pathlist. (We would have ended up with the right state after set_append_rel_pathlist, but that's too late, if we generate indexpaths for some other rel first.) In addition to fixing the actual bug, I installed an Assert enforcing this convention in set_rel_size; that then allows simplification of a couple of now-redundant tests for zero rowcount in set_append_rel_size. Also, to cover the possibility that third-party FDWs have been careless about not returning a zero rowcount estimate, apply clamp_row_est to whatever an FDW comes up with as the rows estimate. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to 9.2. Earlier branches did not have the separation between set_base_rel_sizes and set_base_rel_pathlists steps, so there was no intermediate state where an appendrel would have had inconsistent rowcount and pathlist. It's possible that adding the Assert to set_rel_size would be a good idea in older branches too; but since they're not under development any more, it's likely not worth the trouble.

ON CONFLICT unique index inference had a thinko that could affect cases where the user-supplied inference clause required that an attribute match a particular (user specified) collation and/or opclass. infer_collation_opclass_match() has to check for opclass and/or collation matches and that the attribute is in the list of attributes or expressions known to be in the definition of the index under consideration. The bug was that these two conditions weren't necessarily evaluated for the same index attribute.

Previously nested grouping set specifications accidentally weren't flattened, but instead contained the nested specification as a element in the outer list. Fix this by, as actually documented in comments, concatenating the nested set specification into the outer one. Also add tests to prevent this from breaking again.

Previously we disallowed pushing down quals to WHERE in the presence of grouping sets. That's overly restrictive. We now instead copy quals to WHERE if applicable, leaving the one in HAVING in place. That's because, at that stage of the planning process, it's nontrivial to determine if it's safe to remove the one in HAVING. Author: Andrew Gierth Discussion: 874mkt3l59.fsf@news-spur.riddles.org.uk Backpatch: 9.5, where grouping sets were introduced. This isn't exactly a bugfix, but it seems better to keep the branches in sync at this point.

Some of the older OS X critters in the buildfarm are failing regression, with symptoms showing that a request for 100% sampling in BERNOULLI or SYSTEM methods actually gets only around 50% of the table. gdb revealed that the computation of the "cutoff" number was producing 0x7FFFFFFF rather than the expected 0x100000000. Inspecting the assembly code, it looks like gcc is trying to use lrint() instead of rint() and then fumbling the conversion from long double to uint64. This seems like a clear compiler bug, but assigning the intermediate result into a plain double variable works around it, so let's just do that. (Another idea would be to give up one bit of hash width so that we don't need to use a uint64 cutoff, but let's see if this is enough.)

This was broken by commit 0e7e355f and friends, which ignored the fact that gzopen() will treat "-1" in the mode argument as an invalid character, which it ignores, and a flag for compression level 1. Now, when this value is encountered no compression level flag is passed to gzopen, leaving it to use the zlib default. Also, enforce the documented allowed range for pg_dump's -Z option, namely 0 .. 9, and remove some consequently dead code from pg_backup_tar.c. Problem reported by Marc Mamin. Backpatch to 9.1, like the patch that introduced the bug.

Any error other than ENOENT is a bit suspicious here, and perhaps should not be grounds for assuming the postmaster has failed. For the moment though, just report it, and don't change the behavior otherwise. The intent is mainly to try to determine why we are seeing intermittent failures in this area on some buildfarm members. Back-patch to 9.5 where some of these failures have happened.

New FK relationships for pg_transform. Also findoidjoins now detects a few relationships it didn't before for pre-existing catalogs, as a result of new regression tests leaving entries in those catalogs that weren't there before.

The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level support object needed is a single handler function identified by having a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature. Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments (the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples. Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more honestly with methods that can't support that requirement. Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering). Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too. Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API in production.

The wrong is_null flag was being passed to datum_to_json. Also, null object key values are not permitted, and this was not being checked for.

Handling of assigned-to expressions with indirection (e.g. set f1[1] = 3) was broken for ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE. The problem was that ParseState was consulted to determine if an INSERT-appropriate or UPDATE-appropriate behavior should be used when transforming expressions with indirections. When the wrong path was taken the old row was substituted with NULL, leading to wrong results.. To fix remove p_is_update and only use p_is_insert to decide how to transform the assignment expression, and uset p_is_insert while parsing the on conflict statement. This isn't particularly pretty, but it's not any worse than before.

If there were no subtransactions (or multixacts) active, we would calculate the oldestxid == next xid. That's correct, but if next XID happens to be on the next pg_subtrans (pg_multixact) page, the page does not exist yet, and SimpleLruTruncate will produce an "apparent wraparound" warning. The warning is harmless in this case, but looks very alarming to users. Backpatch to all supported versions. Patch and analysis by Thomas Munro.

The TABLESAMPLE and row security patches each overlooked this function, though their errors of omission were opposite: RLS failed to zero out the securityQuals field, leading to wasteful copying of useless expression trees in finished plans, while TABLESAMPLE neglected to add a comment saying that it intentionally *isn't* deleting the tablesample subtree. There probably should be a similar comment about ctename, too. Back-patch as appropriate.
