      Rename msvc build option krb5 to gss · 74a72ec2
      Magnus Hagander authored
      In the MSVC build system we've never separated krb5 from gss,
      and always built them both. Since the removal of native krb5
      support, this parameter only controls GSSAPI, so rename it
      accordingly.

      Remove support for native krb5 authentication · 98de86e4
      Magnus Hagander authored
      krb5 has been deprecated since 8.3, and the recommended way to do
      Kerberos authentication is using the GSSAPI authentication method
      (which is still fully supported).
      
      libpq retains the ability to identify krb5 authentication, but only
      gives an error message about it being unsupported. Since all authentication
      is initiated from the backend, there is no need to keep it at all
      in the backend.

      Add CREATE TABLESPACE ... WITH ... Options · 5254958e
      Stephen Frost authored
      Tablespaces have a few options which can be set on them to give PG hints
      as to how the tablespace behaves (perhaps it's faster for sequential
      scans, or better able to handle random access, etc).  These options were
      only available through the ALTER TABLESPACE command.
      
      This adds the ability to set these options at CREATE TABLESPACE time,
      removing the need to do both a CREATE TABLESPACE and ALTER TABLESPACE to
      get the correct options set on the tablespace.

      Fix VACUUM's reporting of dead-tuple counts to the stats collector. · 115f4141
      Tom Lane authored
      Historically, VACUUM has just reported its new_rel_tuples estimate
      (the same thing it puts into pg_class.reltuples) to the stats collector.
      That number counts both live and dead-but-not-yet-reclaimable tuples.
      This behavior may once have been right, but modern versions of the
      pgstats code track live and dead tuple counts separately, so putting
      the total into n_live_tuples and zero into n_dead_tuples is surely
      pretty bogus.  Fix it to report live and dead tuple counts separately.
      
      This doesn't really do much for situations where updating transactions
      commit concurrently with a VACUUM scan (possibly causing double-counting or
      omission of the tuples they add or delete); but it's clearly an improvement
      over what we were doing before.

      Add ALTER TABLESPACE ... MOVE command · 76e91b38
      Stephen Frost authored
      This adds a 'MOVE' sub-command to ALTER TABLESPACE which allows moving sets of
      objects from one tablespace to another.  This can be extremely handy and avoids
      a lot of error-prone scripting.  ALTER TABLESPACE ... MOVE will only move
      objects the user owns, will notify the user if no objects were found, and can
      be used to move ALL objects or specific types of objects (TABLES, INDEXES, or
      MATERIALIZED VIEWS).

      Allow SET TABLESPACE to database default · 6f25c62d
      Stephen Frost authored
      We've always allowed CREATE TABLE to create tables in the database's default
      tablespace without checking for CREATE permissions on that tablespace.
      Unfortunately, the original implementation of ALTER TABLE ... SET TABLESPACE
      didn't pick up on that exception.
      
      This changes ALTER TABLE ... SET TABLESPACE to allow the database's default
      tablespace without checking for CREATE rights on that tablespace, just as
      CREATE TABLE works today.  Users could always do this through a series of
      commands (CREATE TABLE ... AS SELECT * FROM ...; DROP TABLE ...; etc), so
      let's fix the oversight in SET TABLESPACE's original implementation.

      Make various variables const (read-only). · 0d79c0a8
      Tom Lane authored
      These changes should generally improve correctness/maintainability.
      A nice side benefit is that several kilobytes move from initialized
      data to text segment, allowing them to be shared across processes and
      probably reducing copy-on-write overhead while forking a new backend.
      Unfortunately this doesn't seem to help libpq in the same way (at least
      not when it's compiled with -fpic on x86_64), but we can hope the linker
      at least collects all nominally-const data together even if it's not
      actually part of the text segment.
      
      Also, make pg_encname_tbl[] static in encnames.c, since there seems
      no very good reason for any other code to use it; per a suggestion
      from Wim Lewis, who independently submitted a patch that was mostly
      a subset of this one.

      Fix Hot Standby feedback sending when streaming busily. · a472ae1e
      Heikki Linnakangas authored
      Commit 6f60fdd7 accidentally removed a
      call to XLogWalRcvSendHSFeedback() after flushing received WAL to disk.
      The consequence is that when walsender is busy streaming WAL, it doesn't
      send HS feedback messages. One is sent if nothing is received from the
      master for 100ms, but if there's a steady stream of WAL, it never happens.
      
      Backpatch to 9.3.

      Coverity is complaining that the value returned by pg_strtok in

      39bfc94c, we did this to the other macros
      to placate compilers that complained when the variable was completely
      unused, this extends that to the last remaining macros.

      Fix multiple bugs in index page locking during hot-standby WAL replay. · 061b079f
      Tom Lane authored
      In ordinary operation, VACUUM must be careful to take a cleanup lock on
      each leaf page of a btree index; this ensures that no indexscans could
      still be "in flight" to heap tuples due to be deleted.  (Because of
      possible index-tuple motion due to concurrent page splits, it's not enough
      to lock only the pages we're deleting index tuples from.)  In Hot Standby,
      the WAL replay process must likewise lock every leaf page.  There were
      several bugs in the code for that:
      
      * The replay scan might come across unused, all-zero pages in the index.
      While btree_xlog_vacuum itself did the right thing (ie, nothing) with
      such pages, xlogutils.c supposed that such pages must be corrupt and
      would throw an error.  This accounts for various reports of replication
      failures with "PANIC: WAL contains references to invalid pages".  To
      fix, add a ReadBufferMode value that instructs XLogReadBufferExtended
      not to complain when we're doing this.
      
      * btree_xlog_vacuum performed the extra locking if standbyState ==
      STANDBY_SNAPSHOT_READY, but that's not the correct test: we won't open up
      for hot standby queries until the database has reached consistency, and
      we don't want to do the extra locking till then either, for fear of reading
      corrupted pages (which bufmgr.c would complain about).  Fix by exporting a
      new function from xlog.c that will report whether we're actually in hot
      standby replay mode.
      
      * To ensure full coverage of the index in the replay scan, btvacuumscan
      would emit a dummy WAL record for the last page of the index, if no
      vacuuming work had been done on that page.  However, if the last page
      of the index is all-zero, that would result in corruption of said page,
      since the functions called on it weren't prepared to handle that case.
      There's no need to lock any such pages, so change the logic to target
      the last normal leaf page instead.
      
      The first two of these bugs were diagnosed by Andres Freund, the other one
      by me.  Fixes based on ideas from Heikki Linnakangas and myself.
      
      This has been wrong since Hot Standby was introduced, so back-patch to 9.0.
