The inplace update survives ROLLBACK. The inval didn't, so another
backend's DDL could then update the row without incorporating the
inplace update. In the test this fixes, a mix of CREATE INDEX and ALTER
TABLE resulted in a table with an index, yet relhasindex=f. That is a
source of index corruption.
Back-patch to v14 - v17. This is a back-patch of commits:
- 243e9b40f1
(main change, on master, before v18 branched)
- 0bada39c83
(defect fix, on master, before v18 branched)
- bae8ca82fd
(cosmetics from post-commit review, on REL_18_STABLE)
It reverses commit c1099dd745, my revert
of the original back-patch of 243e9b4.
This back-patch omits the non-comment heap_decode() changes. I find
those changes removed harmless code that was last necessary in v13. See
discussion thread for details. The back branches aren't the place to
remove such code.
Like the original back-patch, this doesn't change WAL, because these
branches use end-of-recovery SIResetAll(). All branches change the ABI
of extern function PrepareToInvalidateCacheTuple(). No PGXN extension
calls that, and there's no apparent use case in extensions. Expect
".abi-compliance-history" edits to follow.

The test seemed to incorrectly think that query_safe() takes an
argument that describes what the query does, similar to e.g.
command_ok(). Until commit bd8d9c9bdf the extra arguments were
harmless and were just ignored, but when commit bd8d9c9bdf introduced
a new optional argument to query_safe(), the extra arguments started
clashing with that, causing the test to fail.
Backpatch to v17, that's the oldest branch where the test exists. The
extra arguments didn't cause any trouble on the older branches, but
they were clearly bogus anyway.
Buildfarm members skimmer and crake have reported that pg_upgrade
running from v18 fails due to the changes of d52c24b0f8, with the
expectations that the objects removed in the test module
injection_points should still be present post upgrades, but the test
module does not have them anymore.
The origin of the issue is that the following test modules depend on
injection_points, but they do not drop the extension once the tests
finish, leaving its traces in the dumps used for the upgrades:
- gin, down to v17
- typcache, down to v18
- nbtree, HEAD-only
Test modules have no upgrade requirements, as they are used only for..
Tests, so there is no point in keeping them around.
An alternative solution would be to drop the databases created by these
modules in AdjustUpgrade.pm, but the solution of this commit to drop the
extension is simpler. Note that there would be a catch if using a
solution based on AdjustUpgrade.pm as the database name used for the
test runs differs between configure and meson:
- configure relies on USE_MODULE_DB for the database name unicity, that
would build a database name based on the *first* entry of REGRESS, that
lists all the SQL tests.
- meson relies on a "name" field.
For example, for the test module "gin", the regression database is named
"regression_gin" under meson, while it is more complex for configure, as
of "contrib_regression_gin_incomplete_splits". So a AdjustUpgrade.pm
would need a set of DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS to solve this issue, to cope
with each build system.
The failure has been caused by d52c24b0f8, and the problem can happen
with upgrade dumps from v17 and v18 to HEAD. This problem is not
currently reachable in the back-branches, but it could be possible that
a future change in injection_points in stable branches invalidates this
theory, so this commit is applied down to v17 in the test modules that
matter.
Per discussion with Tom Lane and Heikki Linnakangas.

PostgreSQL's src/port/open.c has always set bInheritHandle = TRUE
when opening files on Windows, making all file descriptors inheritable
by child processes. This meant the O_CLOEXEC flag, added to many call
sites by commit 1da569ca1f (v16), was silently ignored.
The original commit included a comment suggesting that our open()
replacement doesn't create inheritable handles, but it was a mis-
understanding of the code path. In practice, the code was creating
inheritable handles in all cases.
This hasn't caused widespread problems because most child processes
(archive_command, COPY PROGRAM, etc.) operate on file paths passed as
arguments rather than inherited file descriptors. Even if a child
wanted to use an inherited handle, it would need to learn the numeric
handle value, which isn't passed through our IPC mechanisms.
Nonetheless, the current behavior is wrong. It violates documented
O_CLOEXEC semantics, contradicts our own code comments, and makes
PostgreSQL behave differently on Windows than on Unix. It also creates
potential issues with future code or security auditing tools.
To fix, define O_CLOEXEC to _O_NOINHERIT in master, previously used by
O_DSYNC. We use different values in the back branches to preserve
existing values. In pgwin32_open_handle() we set bInheritHandle
according to whether O_CLOEXEC is specified, for the same atomic
semantics as POSIX in multi-threaded programs that create processes.

This commit adds the version information of a node initialized by
Cluster.pm, that may vary depending on the install_path given by the
test. The code was written so as the node information, that includes
the version number, was dumped before the version number was set.
This is particularly useful for the pg_upgrade TAP tests, that may mix
several versions for cross-version runs. The TAP infrastructure also
allows mixing nodes with different versions, so this information can be
useful for out-of-core tests.

Formerly, when updating an auto-updatable view, or a relation with
rules, if the original query had any data-modifying CTEs, the rewriter
would rewrite those CTEs multiple times as RewriteQuery() recursed
into the product queries. In most cases that was harmless, because
RewriteQuery() is mostly idempotent. However, if the CTE involved
updating an always-generated column, it would trigger an error because
any subsequent rewrite would appear to be attempting to assign a
non-default value to the always-generated column.
This could perhaps be fixed by attempting to make RewriteQuery() fully
idempotent, but that looks quite tricky to achieve, and would probably
be quite fragile, given that more generated-column-type features might
be added in the future.
Instead, fix by arranging for RewriteQuery() to rewrite each CTE
exactly once (by tracking the number of CTEs already rewritten as it
recurses). This has the advantage of being simpler and more efficient,
but it does make RewriteQuery() dependent on the order in which
rewriteRuleAction() joins the CTE lists from the original query and
the rule action, so care must be taken if that is ever changed.

Normally, if a WHERE clause is implied by the predicate of a partial
index, we drop that clause from the set of quals used with the index,
since it's redundant to test it if we're scanning that index.
However, if it's a hash index (or any !amoptionalkey index), this
could result in dropping all available quals for the index's first
key, preventing us from generating an indexscan.
It's fair to question the practical usefulness of this case. Since
hash only supports equality quals, the situation could only arise
if the index's predicate is "WHERE indexkey = constant", implying
that the index contains only one hash value, which would make hash
a really poor choice of index type. However, perhaps there are
other !amoptionalkey index AMs out there with which such cases are
more plausible.
To fix, just don't filter the candidate indexquals this way if
the index is !amoptionalkey. That's a bit hokey because it may
result in testing quals we didn't need to test, but to do it
more accurately we'd have to redundantly identify which candidate
quals are actually usable with the index, something we don't know
at this early stage of planning. Doesn't seem worth the effort.

The fix for bug #19055 (commit b0cc0a71e) allowed CTE references in
sub-selects within aggregate functions to affect the semantic levels
assigned to such aggregates. It turns out this broke some related
cases, leading to assertion failures or strange planner errors such
as "unexpected outer reference in CTE query". After experimenting
with some alternative rules for assigning the semantic level in
such cases, we've come to the conclusion that changing the level
is more likely to break things than be helpful.
Therefore, this patch undoes what b0cc0a71e changed, and instead
installs logic to throw an error if there is any reference to a
CTE that's below the semantic level that standard SQL rules would
assign to the aggregate based on its contained Var and Aggref nodes.
(The SQL standard disallows sub-selects within aggregate functions,
so it can't reach the troublesome case and hence has no rule for
what to do.)
Perhaps someone will come along with a legitimate query that this
logic rejects, and if so probably the example will help us craft
a level-adjustment rule that works better than what b0cc0a71e did.
I'm not holding my breath for that though, because the previous
logic had been there for a very long time before bug #19055 without
complaints, and that bug report sure looks to have originated from
fuzzing not from real usage.

When instrumenting a MERGE command containing both WHEN NOT MATCHED BY
SOURCE and WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET actions using EXPLAIN ANALYZE, a
concurrent update of the target relation could lead to an Assert
failure in show_modifytable_info(). In a non-assert build, this would
lead to an incorrect value for "skipped" tuples in the EXPLAIN output,
rather than a crash.
This could happen if the concurrent update caused a matched row to no
longer match, in which case ExecMerge() treats the single originally
matched row as a pair of not matched rows, and potentially executes 2
not-matched actions for the single source row. This could then lead to
a state where the number of rows processed by the ModifyTable node
exceeds the number of rows produced by its source node, causing
"skipped_path" in show_modifytable_info() to be negative, triggering
the Assert.
Fix this in ExecMergeMatched() by incrementing the instrumentation
tuple count on the source node whenever a concurrent update of this
kind is detected, if both kinds of merge actions exist, so that the
number of source rows matches the number of actions potentially
executed, and the "skipped" tuple count is correct.
Back-patch to v17, where support for WHEN NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE
actions was introduced.

The async notification queue contains the XID of the sender, and when
processing notifications we call TransactionIdDidCommit() on the
XID. But we had no safeguards to prevent the CLOG segments containing
those XIDs from being truncated away. As a result, if a backend didn't
for some reason process its notifications for a long time, or when a
new backend issued LISTEN, you could get an error like:
test=# listen c21;
ERROR: 58P01: could not access status of transaction 14279685
DETAIL: Could not open file "pg_xact/000D": No such file or directory.
LOCATION: SlruReportIOError, slru.c:1087
To fix, make VACUUM "freeze" the XIDs in the async notification queue
before truncating the CLOG. Old XIDs are replaced with
FrozenTransactionId or InvalidTransactionId.
Note: This commit is not a full fix. A race condition remains, where a
backend is executing asyncQueueReadAllNotifications() and has just
made a local copy of an async SLRU page which contains old XIDs, while
vacuum concurrently truncates the CLOG covering those XIDs. When the
backend then calls TransactionIdDidCommit() on those XIDs from the
local copy, you still get the error. The next commit will fix that
remaining race condition.

The test introduced by 17b2d5ec75 verifies that a WAL receiver
survives across a timeline jump by searching the server logs for
termination messages. However, it called restart() before the timeline
switch, which kills the WAL receiver and may log the exact message being
checked, hence failing the test. As TAP tests reuse the same log file
across restarts, a rotate_logfile() is used before the restart so as the
log matching check is not impacted by log entries generated by a
previous shutdown.
Recent changes to file handle inheritance altered I/O timing enough to
make this fail consistently while testing another patch.
While on it, this adds an extra check based on a PID comparison. This
test may lead to false positives as it could be possible that the WAL
receiver has processed a timeline jump before the initial PID is
grabbed, but it should be good enough in most cases.

Commit b4f584f9d2 (affecting v15~, later backpatched down to 13 as of
3635a0a35a) introduced an unconditional WAL receiver shutdown when
switching from streaming to archive WAL sources. This causes problems
during a timeline switch, when a WAL receiver enters WALRCV_WAITING
state but remains alive, waiting for instructions.
The unconditional shutdown can break some monitoring scenarios as the
WAL receiver gets repeatedly terminated and re-spawned, causing
pg_stat_wal_receiver.status to show a "streaming" instead of "waiting"
status, masking the fact that the WAL receiver is waiting for a new TLI
and a new LSN to be able to continue streaming.
This commit changes the WAL receiver behavior so as the shutdown becomes
conditional, with InstallXLogFileSegmentActive being always reset to
prevent the regression fixed by b4f584f9d2: only terminate the WAL
receiver when it is actively streaming (WALRCV_STREAMING,
WALRCV_STARTING, or WALRCV_RESTARTING). When in WALRCV_WAITING state,
just reset InstallXLogFileSegmentActive flag to allow archive
restoration without killing the process. WALRCV_STOPPED and
WALRCV_STOPPING are not reachable states in this code path. For the
latter, the startup process is the one in charge of setting
WALRCV_STOPPING via ShutdownWalRcv(), waiting for the WAL receiver to
reach a WALRCV_STOPPED state after switching walRcvState, so
WaitForWALToBecomeAvailable() cannot be reached while a WAL receiver is
in a WALRCV_STOPPING state.
A regression test is added to check that a WAL receiver is not stopped
on timeline jump, that fails when the fix of this commit is reverted.

When dealing with ResultRelInfos for partitions, there are cases where
there are mixed requirements for the ri_RootResultRelInfo. There are
cases when the partition itself requires a NULL ri_RootResultRelInfo and
in the same query, the same partition may require a ResultRelInfo with
its parent set in ri_RootResultRelInfo. This could cause the column
mapping between the partitioned table and the partition not to be done
which could result in crashes if the column attnums didn't match
exactly.
The fix is simple. We now check that the ri_RootResultRelInfo matches
what the caller passed to ExecGetTriggerResultRel() and only return a
cached ResultRelInfo when the ri_RootResultRelInfo matches what the
caller wants, otherwise we'll make a new one.

Commit 71f4c8c6f7 (which implemented DETACH CONCURRENTLY) added code
to create a separate table constraint when a table is detached
concurrently, identical to the partition constraint, on the theory that
such a constraint was needed in case the optimizer had constructed any
query plans that depended on the constraint being there. However, that
theory was apparently bogus because any such plans would be invalidated.
For hash partitioning, those constraints are problematic, because their
expressions reference the OID of the parent partitioned table, to which
the detached table is no longer related; this causes all sorts of
problems (such as inability of restoring a pg_dump of that table, and
the table no longer working properly if the partitioned table is later
dropped).
We'd like to get rid of all those constraints. In fact, for branch
master, do that -- no longer create any substitute constraints.
However, out of fear that some users might somehow depend on these
constraints for other partitioning strategies, for stable branches
(back to 14, which added DETACH CONCURRENTLY), only do it for hash
partitioning.
(If you repeatedly DETACH CONCURRENTLY and then ATTACH a partition, then
with this constraint addition you don't need to scan the table in the
ATTACH step, which presumably is good. But if users really valued this
feature, they would have requested that it worked for non-concurrent
DETACH also.)

SELECT JSON_VALUE('{"a":1}', '$.c' RETURNING text
DEFAULT 'A' COLLATE "C" ON EMPTY);
Fix by validating in transformJsonBehavior() that the DEFAULT
expression's collation matches the enclosing JSON expression’s
collation. In exprSetCollation(), replace the recursive call on the
JsonBehavior expression with an assertion that its collation already
matches the target, since the parser now enforces that condition.

Some macOS machines are having trouble with 002_inline, which executes
the JSON parser test executables hundreds of times in a nested loop.
Both developer machines and buildfarm critters have shown excessive test
durations, upwards of 20 seconds.
Push the innermost loop of 002_inline, which iterates through differing
chunk sizes, down into the test executable. (I'd eventually like to push
all of the JSON unit tests down into C, but this is an easy win in the
short term.) Testers have reported a speedup between 4-9x.

Neighbor get_statistics_object_oid() ignores objects in pg_temp, as has
been the standard for non-relation, non-type namespace searches since
CVE-2007-2138. Hence, most operations that name a statistics object
correctly decline to map an unqualified name to a statistics object in
pg_temp. StatisticsObjIsVisibleExt() did not. Consequently,
pg_statistics_obj_is_visible() wrongly returned true for such objects,
psql \dX wrongly listed them, and getObjectDescription()-based ereport()
and pg_describe_object() wrongly omitted namespace qualification. Any
malfunction beyond that would depend on how a human or application acts
on those wrong indications. Commit
d99d58cdc8 introduced this. Back-patch to

The functions test_stat_func() and test_stat_func2() had empty
function bodies, so that they took very little time to run. This made
it possible that on machines with relatively low timer resolution the
functions could return before the clock advanced, making the test fail
(as seen on buildfarm members fruitcrow and hamerkop).
To avoid that, pg_sleep for 10us during the functions. As far as we
can tell, all current hardware has clock resolution much less than
that. (The current implementation of pg_sleep will round it up to
1ms anyway, but someday that might get improved.)

In our previous discussions around making our regression tests
pass in FIPS mode, we concluded that we didn't need to support
the different error message wording observed with pre-3.0 OpenSSL.
However there are still a few LTS distributions soldiering along
with such versions, and now we have some in the buildfarm.
So let's add the variant expected-files needed to make them happy.
This commit only covers the core regression tests. Previous
discussion suggested that we might need some adjustments in
contrib as well, but it's not totally clear to me what those
would be. Rather than work it out from first principles,
I'll wait to see what the buildfarm shows.

JsonConstructorExpr can produce non-NULL output with a NULL input, so
it should be treated as a non-strict construct. Failing to do so can
lead to incorrect query behavior.
For example, in the reported case, when pulling up a subquery that is
under an outer join, if the subquery's target list contains a
JsonConstructorExpr that uses subquery variables and it is mistakenly
treated as strict, it will be pulled up without being wrapped in a
PlaceHolderVar. As a result, the expression will be evaluated at the
wrong place and will not be forced to null when the outer join should
do so.

Commit e3ffc3e91 fixed the translation of character classes in
SIMILAR TO regular expressions. Unfortunately the fix broke a corner
case: if there is an escape character right after the opening bracket
(for example in "[\q]"), a closing bracket right after the escape
sequence would not be seen as closing the character class.
There were two more oversights: a backslash or a nested opening bracket
right at the beginning of a character class should remove the special
meaning from any following caret or closing bracket.
This bug suggests that this code needs to be more readable, so also
rename the variables "charclass_depth" and "charclass_start" to
something more meaningful, rewrite an "if" cascade to be more
consistent, and improve the commentary.

When executing a MERGE UPDATE action, if there is more than one
concurrent update of the target row, the lock-and-retry code would
sometimes incorrectly identify the latest version of the target tuple,
leading to incorrect results.
This was caused by using the ctid field from the TM_FailureData
returned by table_tuple_lock() in a case where the result was TM_Ok,
which is unsafe because the TM_FailureData struct is not guaranteed to
be fully populated in that case. Instead, it should use the tupleid
passed to (and updated by) table_tuple_lock().
To reduce the chances of similar errors in the future, improve the
commentary for table_tuple_lock() and TM_FailureData to make it
clearer that table_tuple_lock() updates the tid passed to it, and most
fields of TM_FailureData should not be relied on in non-failure cases.
An exception to this is the "traversed" field, which is set in both
success and failure cases.

If an INSERT has an ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE clause, the executor must
check that the target relation supports UPDATE as well as INSERT. In
particular, it must check that the target relation has a REPLICA
IDENTITY if it publishes updates. Formerly, it was not doing this
check, which could lead to silently breaking replication.
Fix by adding such a check to CheckValidResultRel(), which requires
adding a new onConflictAction argument. In back-branches, preserve ABI
compatibility by introducing a wrapper function with the original
signature.

SubPlan nodes are typically built very early, before any RelOptInfos
have been constructed for the parent query level. As a result, the
simple_rel_array in the parent root has not yet been initialized.
Currently, during cost estimation of a SubPlan's testexpr, we may call
examine_variable() to look up statistical data about the expressions.
This can lead to "no relation entry for relid" errors.
To fix, pass root as NULL to cost_qual_eval() in cost_subplan(), since
the root does not yet contain enough information to safely consult
statistics.
One exception is SubPlan nodes built for the initplans of MIN/MAX
aggregates from indexes. In this case, having a NULL root is safe
because testexpr will be NULL. Additionally, an initplan will by
definition not consult anything from the parent plan.
Backpatch to all supported branches. Although the reported call path
that triggers this error is not reachable prior to v17, there's no
guarantee that other code paths -- especially in extensions -- could
not encounter the same issue when cost_qual_eval() is called with a
root that lacks a valid simple_rel_array. The test case is not
included in pre-v17 branches though.

Temporary relations may share the same RelFileNumber with a permanent
relation, or other temporary relations associated with other sessions.
Being able to uniquely identify a temporary relation would require
RelidByRelfilenumber() to know about the proc number of the temporary
relation it wants to identify, something it is not designed for since
its introduction in f01d1ae3a1.
There are currently three callers of RelidByRelfilenumber():
- autoprewarm.
- Logical decoding, reorder buffer.
- pg_filenode_relation(), that attempts to find a relation OID based on
a tablespace OID and a RelFileNumber.
This makes the situation problematic particularly for the first two
cases, leading to the possibility of random ERRORs due to
inconsistencies that temporary relations can create in the cache
maintained by RelidByRelfilenumber(). The third case should be less of
an issue, as I suspect that there are few direct callers of
pg_filenode_relation().
The window where the ERRORs are happen is very narrow, requiring an OID
wraparound to create a lookup conflict in RelidByRelfilenumber() with a
temporary table reusing the same OID as another relation already cached.
The problem is easier to reach in workloads with a high OID consumption
rate, especially with a higher number of temporary relations created.
We could get pg_filenode_relation() and RelidByRelfilenumber() to work
with temporary relations if provided the means to identify them with an
optional proc number given in input, but the years have also shown that
we do not have a use case for it, yet. Note that this could not be
backpatched if pg_filenode_relation() needs changes. It is simpler to
ignore temporary relations.

Some replication slot manipulations (logical decoding via SQL,
advancing) were failing an assertion when releasing a slot in
single-user mode, because active_pid was not set in a ReplicationSlot
when its slot is acquired.
ReplicationSlotAcquire() has some logic to be able to work with the
single-user mode. This commit sets ReplicationSlot->active_pid to
MyProcPid, to let the slot-related logic fall-through, considering the
single process as the one holding the slot.
Some TAP tests are added for various replication slot functions with the
single-user mode, while on it, for slot creation, drop, advancing, copy
and logical decoding with multiple slot types (temporary, physical vs
logical). These tests are skipped on Windows, as direct calls of
postgres --single would fail on permission failures. There is no
platform-specific behavior that needs to be checked, so living with this
restriction should be fine. The CI is OK with that, now let's see what
the buildfarm tells.

The DROP SUBSCRIPTION command performs several operations: it stops the
subscription workers, removes subscription-related entries from system
catalogs, and deletes the replication slot on the publisher server.
Previously, this command acquired an AccessExclusiveLock on
pg_subscription before initiating these steps.
However, while holding this lock, the command attempts to connect to the
publisher to remove the replication slot. In cases where the connection is
made to a newly created database on the same server as subscriber, the
cache-building process during connection tries to acquire an
AccessShareLock on pg_subscription, resulting in a self-deadlock.
To resolve this issue, we reduce the lock level on pg_subscription during
DROP SUBSCRIPTION from AccessExclusiveLock to RowExclusiveLock. Earlier,
the higher lock level was used to prevent the launcher from starting a new
worker during the drop operation, as a restarted worker could become
orphaned.
Now, instead of relying on a strict lock, we acquire an AccessShareLock on
the specific subscription being dropped and re-validate its existence
after acquiring the lock. If the subscription is no longer valid, the
worker exits gracefully. This approach avoids the deadlock while still
ensuring that orphan workers are not created.
