      Fix off-by-one loop count in MapArrayTypeName, and get rid of static array. · 66709133
      Tom Lane authored
      MapArrayTypeName would copy up to NAMEDATALEN-1 bytes of the base type
      name, which of course is wrong: after prepending '_' there is only room for
      NAMEDATALEN-2 bytes.  Aside from being the wrong result, this case would
      lead to overrunning the statically allocated work buffer.  This would be a
      security bug if the function were ever used outside bootstrap mode, but it
      isn't, at least not in any currently supported branches.
      
      Aside from fixing the off-by-one loop logic, this patch gets rid of the
      static work buffer by having MapArrayTypeName pstrdup its result; the sole
      caller was already doing that, so this just requires moving the pstrdup
      call.  This saves a few bytes but mainly it makes the API a lot cleaner.
      
      Back-patch on the off chance that there is some third-party code using
      MapArrayTypeName with less-secure input.  Pushing pstrdup into the function
      should not cause any serious problems for such hypothetical code; at worst
      there might be a short term memory leak.
      
      Per Coverity scanning.

      Fix file descriptor leak after failure of a \setshell command in pgbench. · d38e8d30
      Tom Lane authored
      If the called command fails to return data, runShellCommand forgot to
      pclose() the pipe before returning.  This is fairly harmless in the current
      code, because pgbench would then abandon further processing of that client
      thread; so no more than nclients descriptors could be leaked this way.  But
      it's not hard to imagine future improvements whereby that wouldn't be true.
      In any case, it's sloppy coding, so patch all branches.  Found by Coverity.

      Fix some jsonb issues found by Coverity in recent commits. · c8315930
      Andrew Dunstan authored
      Mostly these issues concern the non-use of function results. These
      have been changed to use (void) pushJsonbValue(...) instead of assigning
      the result to a variable that gets overwritten before it is used.
      
      There is a larger issue that we should possibly examine the API for
      pushJsonbValue(), so that instead of returning a value it modifies a
      state argument. The current idiom is rather clumsy. However, changing
      that requires quite a bit more work, so this change should do for the
      moment.

      Improve documentation around parameter-setting and ALTER SYSTEM. · af06aa82
      Tom Lane authored
      The ALTER SYSTEM ref page hadn't been held to a very high standard, nor
      was the feature well integrated into section 18.1 (parameter setting).
      Also, though commit 4c4654af had improved the structure of 18.1, it also
      introduced a lot of poor wording, imprecision, and outright falsehoods.
      Try to clean that up.

      Avoid instability in output of new REINDEX SCHEMA test. · 1c5c70df
      Tom Lane authored
      The planner seems to like to do this join query as a hash join, making
      the output ordering machine-dependent; worse, it's a hash on OIDs, so
      that it's a bit astonishing that the result doesn't change from run to
      run even on one machine.  Add an ORDER BY to get consistent results.
      Per buildfarm.
      
      I also suppressed output from the final DROP SCHEMA CASCADE, to avoid
      occasional failures similar to those fixed in commit 81d815dc.
      That hasn't been observed in the buildfarm yet, but it seems likely
      to happen in future if we leave it as-is.

      Add several generator functions for jsonb that exist for json. · 7e354ab9
      Andrew Dunstan authored
      The functions are:
          to_jsonb()
          jsonb_object()
          jsonb_build_object()
          jsonb_build_array()
          jsonb_agg()
          jsonb_object_agg()
      
      Also along the way some better logic is implemented in
      json_categorize_type() to match that in the newly implemented
      jsonb_categorize_type().

      Revert misguided change to postgres_fdw FOR UPDATE/SHARE code. · 8ec8760f
      Tom Lane authored
      In commit 462bd957, I changed postgres_fdw
      to rely on get_plan_rowmark() instead of get_parse_rowmark().  I still
      think that's a good idea in the long run, but as Etsuro Fujita pointed out,
      it doesn't work today because planner.c forces PlanRowMarks to have
      markType = ROW_MARK_COPY for all foreign tables.  There's no urgent reason
      to change this in the back branches, so let's just revert that part of
      yesterday's commit rather than trying to design a better solution under
      time pressure.
      
      Also, add a regression test case showing what postgres_fdw does with FOR
      UPDATE/SHARE.  I'd blithely assumed there was one already, else I'd have
      realized yesterday that this code didn't work.

      Fix planning of SELECT FOR UPDATE on child table with partial index. · 462bd957
      Tom Lane authored
      Ordinarily we can omit checking of a WHERE condition that matches a partial
      index's condition, when we are using an indexscan on that partial index.
      However, in SELECT FOR UPDATE we must include the "redundant" filter
      condition in the plan so that it gets checked properly in an EvalPlanQual
      recheck.  The planner got this mostly right, but improperly omitted the
      filter condition if the index in question was on an inheritance child
      table.  In READ COMMITTED mode, this could result in incorrectly returning
      just-updated rows that no longer satisfy the filter condition.
      
      The cause of the error is using get_parse_rowmark() when get_plan_rowmark()
      is what should be used during planning.  In 9.3 and up, also fix the same
      mistake in contrib/postgres_fdw.  It's currently harmless there (for lack
      of inheritance support) but wrong is wrong, and the incorrect code might
      get copied to someplace where it's more significant.
      
      Report and fix by Kyotaro Horiguchi.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

      Fix corner case where SELECT FOR UPDATE could return a row twice. · 2db576ba
      Tom Lane authored
      In READ COMMITTED mode, if a SELECT FOR UPDATE discovers it has to redo
      WHERE-clause checking on rows that have been updated since the SELECT's
      snapshot, it invokes EvalPlanQual processing to do that.  If this first
      occurs within a non-first child table of an inheritance tree, the previous
      coding could accidentally re-return a matching row from an earlier,
      already-scanned child table.  (And, to add insult to injury, I think this
      could make it miss returning a row that should have been returned, if the
      updated row that this happens on should still have passed the WHERE qual.)
      Per report from Kyotaro Horiguchi; the added isolation test is based on his
      test case.
      
      This has been broken for quite awhile, so back-patch to all supported
      branches.

      Tom Lane authored
      Aside from not testing the case it claimed to test (namely a permissions
      failure), it left a login-capable role lying around, which quite aside
      from possibly being a security hole would cause subsequent regression runs
      to fail since the role would already exist.

      The amount of space to reserve for the value's varlena header is
      VARHDRSZ, not sizeof(VARHDRSZ).  The latter coding accidentally
      failed to fail because of the way the VARHDRSZ macro is currently
      defined; but if we ever change it to return size_t (as one might
      reasonably expect it to do), convertToJsonb() would have failed.
