      Ensure that pg_get_ruledef()'s output matches pg_get_viewdef()'s. · b4af9e3f
      Tom Lane authored
      Various cases involving renaming of view columns are handled by having
      make_viewdef pass down the view's current relation tupledesc to
      get_query_def, which then takes care to use the column names from the
      tupledesc for the output column names of the SELECT.  For some reason
      though, we'd missed teaching make_ruledef to do similarly when it is
      printing an ON SELECT rule, even though this is exactly the same case.
      The results from pg_get_ruledef would then be different and arguably wrong.
      In particular, this breaks pre-v10 versions of pg_dump, which in some
      situations would define views by means of emitting a CREATE RULE ... ON
      SELECT command.  Third-party tools might not be happy either.
      
      In passing, clean up some crufty code in make_viewdef; we'd apparently
      modernized the equivalent code in make_ruledef somewhere along the way,
      and missed this copy.
      
      Per report from Gilles Darold.  Back-patch to all supported versions.

      Be more consistent about errors for opfamily member lookup failures. · 278cb434
      Tom Lane authored
      Add error checks in some places that were calling get_opfamily_member
      or get_opfamily_proc and just assuming that the call could never fail.
      Also, standardize the wording for such errors in some other places.
      
      None of these errors are expected in normal use, hence they're just
      elog not ereport.  But they may be handy for diagnosing omissions in
      custom opclasses.

      Fix pg_dump's handling of event triggers. · 93f039b4
      Tom Lane authored
      pg_dump with the --clean option failed to emit DROP EVENT TRIGGER
      commands for event triggers.  In a closely related oversight,
      it also did not emit ALTER OWNER commands for event triggers.
      Since only superusers can create event triggers, the latter oversight
      is of little practical consequence ... but if we're going to record
      an owner for event triggers, then surely pg_dump should preserve it.
      
      Per complaint from Greg Atkins.  Back-patch to 9.3 where event triggers
      were introduced.

      pg_rewind: Fix some problems when copying files >2GB. · a46fe6e8
      Robert Haas authored
      When incrementally updating a file larger than 2GB, the old code could
      either fail outright (if the client asked the server for bytes beyond
      the 2GB boundary) or fail to copy all the blocks that had actually
      been modified (if the server reported a file size to the client in
      excess of 2GB), resulting in data corruption.  Generally, such files
      won't occur anyway, but they might if using a non-default segment size
      or if there the directory contains stray files unrelated to
      PostgreSQL.  Fix by a more prudent choice of data types.
      
      Even with these improvements, this code still uses a mix of different
      types (off_t, size_t, uint64, int64) to represent file sizes and
      offsets, not all of which necessarily have the same width or
      signedness, so further cleanup might be in order here.  However, at
      least now they all have the potential to be 64 bits wide on 64-bit
      platforms.

      Use MINVALUE/MAXVALUE instead of UNBOUNDED for range partition bounds. · d363d42b
      Dean Rasheed authored
      Previously, UNBOUNDED meant no lower bound when used in the FROM list,
      and no upper bound when used in the TO list, which was OK for
      single-column range partitioning, but problematic with multiple
      columns. For example, an upper bound of (10.0, UNBOUNDED) would not be
      collocated with a lower bound of (10.0, UNBOUNDED), thus making it
      difficult or impossible to define contiguous multi-column range
      partitions in some cases.
      
      Fix this by using MINVALUE and MAXVALUE instead of UNBOUNDED to
      represent a partition column that is unbounded below or above
      respectively. This syntax removes any ambiguity, and ensures that if
      one partition's lower bound equals another partition's upper bound,
      then the partitions are contiguous.
      
      Also drop the constraint prohibiting finite values after an unbounded
      column, and just document the fact that any values after MINVALUE or
      MAXVALUE are ignored. Previously it was necessary to repeat UNBOUNDED
      multiple times, which was needlessly verbose.

      Improve make_tsvector() to handle empty input, and simplify its callers. · 04a2c7f4
      Tom Lane authored
      It seemed a bit silly that each caller of make_tsvector() was laboriously
      special-casing the situation where no lexemes were found, when it would
      be easy and much more bullet-proof to make make_tsvector() handle that.

      Fix serious performance problems in json(b) to_tsvector(). · b4c6d31c
      Tom Lane authored
      In an off-list followup to bug #14745, Bob Jones complained that
      to_tsvector() on a 2MB jsonb value took an unreasonable amount of
      time and space --- enough to draw the wrath of the OOM killer on
      his machine.  On my machine, his example proved to require upwards
      of 18 seconds and 4GB, which seemed pretty bogus considering that
      to_tsvector() on the same data treated as text took just a couple
      hundred msec and 10 or so MB.
      
      On investigation, the problem is that the implementation scans each
      string element of the json(b) and converts it to tsvector separately,
      then applies tsvector_concat() to join those separate tsvectors.
      The unreasonable memory usage came from leaking every single one of
      the transient tsvectors --- but even without that mistake, this is an
      O(N^2) or worse algorithm, because tsvector_concat() has to repeatedly
      process the words coming from earlier elements.
      
      We can fix it by accumulating all the lexeme data and applying
      make_tsvector() just once.  As a side benefit, that also makes the
      desired adjustment of lexeme positions far cheaper, because we can
      just tweak the running "pos" counter between JSON elements.
      
      In passing, try to make the explanation of that tweak more intelligible.
      (I didn't think that a barely-readable comment far removed from the
      actual code was helpful.)  And do some minor other code beautification.

      Code review for NextValueExpr expression node type. · decb08eb
      Tom Lane authored
      Add missing infrastructure for this node type, notably in ruleutils.c where
      its lack could demonstrably cause EXPLAIN to fail.  Add outfuncs/readfuncs
      support.  (outfuncs support is useful today for debugging purposes.  The
      readfuncs support may never be needed, since at present it would only
      matter for parallel query and NextValueExpr should never appear in a
      parallelizable query; but it seems like a bad idea to have a primnode type
      that isn't fully supported here.)  Teach planner infrastructure that
      NextValueExpr is a volatile, parallel-unsafe, non-leaky expression node
      with cost cpu_operator_cost.  Given its limited scope of usage, there
      *might* be no live bug today from the lack of that knowledge, but it's
      certainly going to bite us on the rear someday.  Teach pg_stat_statements
      about the new node type, too.
      
      While at it, also teach cost_qual_eval() that MinMaxExpr, SQLValueFunction,
      XmlExpr, and CoerceToDomain should be charged as cpu_operator_cost.
      Failing to do this for SQLValueFunction was an oversight in my commit
      0bb51aa9.  The others are longer-standing oversights, but no time like the
      present to fix them.  (In principle, CoerceToDomain could have cost much
      higher than this, but it doesn't presently seem worth trying to examine the
      domain's constraints here.)
      
      Modify execExprInterp.c to execute NextValueExpr as an out-of-line
      function; it seems quite unlikely to me that it's worth insisting that
      it be inlined in all expression eval methods.  Besides, providing the
      out-of-line function doesn't stop anyone from inlining if they want to.
      
      Adjust some places where NextValueExpr support had been inserted with the
      aid of a dartboard rather than keeping it in the same order as elsewhere.

      Fix broken link-command-line ordering for libpgfeutils. · c95275fc
      Tom Lane authored
      In the frontend Makefiles that pull in libpgfeutils, we'd generally
      done it like this:
      
      LDFLAGS += -L$(top_builddir)/src/fe_utils -lpgfeutils $(libpq_pgport)
      
      That method is badly broken, as seen in bug #14742 from Chris Ruprecht.
      The -L flag for src/fe_utils ends up being placed after whatever random
      -L flags are in LDFLAGS already.  That puts us at risk of pulling in
      libpgfeutils.a from some previous installation rather than the freshly
      built one in src/fe_utils.  Also, the lack of an "override" is hazardous
      if someone tries to specify some LDFLAGS on the make command line.
      
      The correct way to do it is like this:
      
      override LDFLAGS := -L$(top_builddir)/src/fe_utils -lpgfeutils $(libpq_pgport) $(LDFLAGS)
      
      so that libpgfeutils, along with libpq, libpgport, and libpgcommon, are
      guaranteed to be pulled in from the build tree and not from any referenced
      system directory, because their -L flags will appear first.
      
      In some places we'd been even lazier and done it like this:
      
      LDFLAGS += -L$(top_builddir)/src/fe_utils -lpgfeutils -lpq
      
      which is subtly wrong in an additional way: on platforms where we can't
      restrict the symbols exported by libpq.so, it allows libpgfeutils to
      latch onto libpgport and libpgcommon symbols from libpq.so, rather than
      directly from those static libraries as intended.  This carries hazards
      like those explained in the comments for the libpq_pgport macro.
      
      In addition to fixing the broken libpgfeutils usages, I tried to
      standardize on using $(libpq_pgport) like so:
      
      override LDFLAGS := $(libpq_pgport) $(LDFLAGS)
      
      even where libpgfeutils is not in the picture.  This makes no difference
      right now but will hopefully discourage future mistakes of the same ilk.
      And it's more like the way we handle CPPFLAGS in libpq-using Makefiles.
      
      In passing, just for consistency, make pgbench include PTHREAD_LIBS the
      same way everyplace else does, ie just after LIBS rather than in some
      random place in the command line.  This might have practical effect if
      there are -L switches in that macro on some platform.
      
      It looks to me like the MSVC build scripts are not affected by this
      error, but someone more familiar with them than I might want to double
      check.
      
      Back-patch to 9.6 where libpgfeutils was introduced.  In 9.6, the hazard
      this error creates is that a reinstallation might link to the prior
      installation's copy of libpgfeutils.a and thereby fail to absorb a
      minor-version bug fix.
