      Fix error handling in replacement pthread_barrier_init(). · a40646e3
      Thomas Munro authored
      Commit 44bf3d50 incorrectly used an errno-style interface when supplying
      missing pthread functionality (i.e. on macOS), but it should check for
      and return error numbers directly.

      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.)

      Fix MSVC scripts when building with GSSAPI/Kerberos · 02511066
      Michael Paquier authored
      The deliverables of upstream Kerberos on Windows are installed with
      paths that do not match our MSVC scripts.  First, the include folder was
      named "inc/" in our scripts, but the upstream MSIs use "include/".
      Second, the build would fail with 64-bit environments as the libraries
      are named differently.
      
      This commit adjusts the MSVC scripts to be compatible with the latest
      installations of upstream, and I have checked that the compilation was
      able to work with the 32-bit and 64-bit installations.

      Fix assertion during streaming of multi-insert toast changes. · 6f4bdf81
      Amit Kapila authored
      While decoding the multi-insert WAL we can't clean the toast untill we get
      the last insert of that WAL record. Now if we stream the changes before we
      get the last change, the memory for toast chunks won't be released and we
      expect the txn to have streamed all changes after streaming.  This
      restriction is mainly to ensure the correctness of streamed transactions
      and it doesn't seem worth uplifting such a restriction just to allow this
      case because anyway we will stream the transaction once such an insert is
      complete.
      
      Previously we were using two different flags (one for toast tuples and
      another for speculative inserts) to indicate partial changes. Now instead
      we replaced both of them with a single flag to indicate partial changes.

      Re-order pg_attribute columns to eliminate some padding space. · f5024d8d
      Tom Lane authored
      Now that attcompression is just a char, there's a lot of wasted
      padding space after it.  Move it into the group of char-wide
      columns to save a net of 4 bytes per pg_attribute entry.  While
      we're at it, swap the order of attstorage and attalign to make for
      a more logical grouping of these columns.
      
      Also re-order actions in related code to match the new field ordering.
      
      This patch also fixes one outright bug: equalTupleDescs() failed to
      compare attcompression.  That could, for example, cause relcache
      reload to fail to adopt a new value following a change.

      Also emit a LOG message when the postmaster stops after a crash
      because restart_after_crash is disabled.  This seems potentially

      Fix access to no-longer-open relcache entry in logical-rep worker. · b39630fd
      Tom Lane authored
      If we redirected a replicated tuple operation into a partition child
      table, and then tried to fire AFTER triggers for that event, the
      relation cache entry for the child table was already closed.  This has
      no visible ill effects as long as the entry is still there and still
      valid, but an unluckily-timed cache flush could result in a crash or
      other misbehavior.
      
      To fix, postpone the ExecCleanupTupleRouting call (which is what
      closes the child table) until after we've fired triggers.  This
      requires a bit of refactoring so that the cleanup function can
      have access to the necessary state.
      
      In HEAD, I took the opportunity to simplify some of worker.c's
      function APIs based on use of the new ApplyExecutionData struct.
      However, it doesn't seem safe/practical to back-patch that aspect,
      at least not without a lot of analysis of possible interactions
      with a04daa97.
      
      In passing, add an Assert to afterTriggerInvokeEvents to catch
      such cases.  This seems worthwhile because we've grown a number
      of fairly unstructured ways of calling AfterTriggerEndQuery.
      
      Back-patch to v13, where worker.c grew the ability to deal with
      partitioned target tables.

      Fix planner's use of Result Cache with unique joins · 9e215378
      David Rowley authored
      When the planner considered using a Result Cache node to cache results
      from the inner side of a Nested Loop Join, it failed to consider that the
      inner path's parameterization may not be the entire join condition.  If
      the join was marked as inner_unique then we may accidentally put the cache
      in singlerow mode.  This meant that entries would be marked as complete
      after caching the first row.  That was wrong as if only part of the join
      condition was parameterized then the uniqueness of the unique join was not
      guaranteed at the Result Cache's level.  The uniqueness is only guaranteed
      after Nested Loop applies the join filter.  If subsequent rows were found,
      this would lead to:
      
      ERROR: cache entry already complete
      
      This could have been fixed by only putting the cache in singlerow mode if
      the entire join condition was parameterized.  However, Nested Loop will
      only read its inner side so far as the first matching row when the join is
      unique, so that might mean we never get an opportunity to mark cache
      entries as complete.  Since non-complete cache entries are useless for
      subsequent lookups, we just don't bother considering a Result Cache path
      in this case.
      
      In passing, remove the XXX comment that claimed the above ERROR might be
      better suited to be an Assert.  After there being an actual case which
      triggered it, it seems better to keep it an ERROR.
