2022-03-26Allow specifying column lists for logical replicationTomas Vondra
This allows specifying an optional column list when adding a table to logical replication. The column list may be specified after the table name, enclosed in parentheses. Columns not included in this list are not sent to the subscriber, allowing the schema on the subscriber to be a subset of the publisher schema. For UPDATE/DELETE publications, the column list needs to cover all REPLICA IDENTITY columns. For INSERT publications, the column list is arbitrary and may omit some REPLICA IDENTITY columns. Furthermore, if the table uses REPLICA IDENTITY FULL, column list is not allowed. The column list can contain only simple column references. Complex expressions, function calls etc. are not allowed. This restriction could be relaxed in the future. During the initial table synchronization, only columns included in the column list are copied to the subscriber. If the subscription has several publications, containing the same table with different column lists, columns specified in any of the lists will be copied. This means all columns are replicated if the table has no column list at all (which is treated as column list with all columns), or when of the publications is defined as FOR ALL TABLES (possibly IN SCHEMA that matches the schema of the table). For partitioned tables, publish_via_partition_root determines whether the column list for the root or the leaf relation will be used. If the parameter is 'false' (the default), the list defined for the leaf relation is used. Otherwise, the column list for the root partition will be used. Psql commands \dRp+ and \d <table-name> now display any column lists.

2022-03-24Add decoding of sequences to built-in replicationTomas Vondra
This commit adds support for decoding of sequences to the built-in replication (the infrastructure was added by commit 0da92dc530). The syntax and behavior mostly mimics handling of tables, i.e. a publication may be defined as FOR ALL SEQUENCES (replicating all sequences in a database), FOR ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA (replicating all sequences in a particular schema) or individual sequences. To publish sequence modifications, the publication has to include 'sequence' action. The protocol is extended with a new message, describing sequence increments. A new system view pg_publication_sequences lists all the sequences added to a publication, both directly and indirectly. Various psql commands (\d and \dRp) are improved to also display publications including a given sequence, or sequences included in a publication.

2022-03-22Add support for security invoker views.Dean Rasheed
A security invoker view checks permissions for accessing its underlying base relations using the privileges of the user of the view, rather than the privileges of the view owner. Additionally, if any of the base relations are tables with RLS enabled, the policies of the user of the view are applied, rather than those of the view owner. This allows views to be defined without giving away additional privileges on the underlying base relations, and matches a similar feature available in other database systems. It also allows views to operate more naturally with RLS, without affecting the assignments of policies to users. Christoph Heiss, with some additional hacking by me.

2022-03-17Refactor code for reading and writing relation map files.Robert Haas
Restructure things so that the functions which update the global variables shared_map and local_map are separate from the functions which just read and write relation map files without touching any global variables. In the new structure of things, write_relmap_file() writes a relmap file but no longer performs global variable updates. A symmetric function read_relmap_file() that just reads a file without changing any global variables is added, and load_relmap_file(), which does change the global variables, uses it as a subroutine. Because write_relmap_file() no longer updates shared_map and local_map, that logic is moved to perform_relmap_update(). However, no similar logic is added to relmap_redo() even though it also calls write_relmap_file(). That's because recovery must not rely on the contents of the relation map, and therefore there is no need to initialize it. In fact, doing so seems like a mistake, because we might then manage to rely on the in-memory map where we shouldn't. Patch by me, based on earlier work by Dilip Kumar. Reviewed by Ashutosh Sharma.

2022-03-11Restore the previous semantics of get_constraint_index().Tom Lane
Commit 8b069ef5d changed this function to look at pg_constraint.conindid rather than searching pg_depend. That was a good performance improvement, but it failed to preserve the exact semantics. The old code would only return an index that was "owned by" (internally dependent on) the specified constraint, whereas the new code will also return indexes that are just referenced by foreign key constraints. This confuses ALTER TABLE, which was implicitly expecting the previous semantics, into failing with errors like ERROR: relation 146621 has multiple clustered indexes or ERROR: "pk_attbl" is not an index for table "atref" We can fix this without reverting the performance improvement by adding a contype check in get_constraint_index(). Another way could be to make ALTER TABLE check it, but I'm worried that extension code could also have subtle dependencies on the old semantics.

2022-03-04Parse/analyze function renamingPeter Eisentraut
There are three parallel ways to call parse/analyze: with fixed parameters, with variable parameters, and by supplying your own parser callback. Some of the involved functions were confusingly named and made this API structure more confusing. This patch renames some functions to make this clearer: parse_analyze() -> parse_analyze_fixedparams() pg_analyze_and_rewrite() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_fixedparams() (Otherwise one might think this variant doesn't accept parameters, but in fact all three ways accept parameters.) pg_analyze_and_rewrite_params() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_withcb() (Before, and also when considering pg_analyze_and_rewrite(), one might think this is the only way to pass parameters. Moreover, the parser callback doesn't necessarily need to parse only parameters, it's just one of the things it could do.) parse_fixed_parameters() -> setup_parse_fixed_parameters() parse_variable_parameters() -> setup_parse_variable_parameters() (These functions don't actually do any parsing, they just set up callbacks to use during parsing later.) This patch also adds some const decorations to the fixed-parameters API, so the distinction from the variable-parameters API is more clear.

2022-02-22Allow specifying row filters for logical replication of tables.Amit Kapila
This feature adds row filtering for publication tables. When a publication is defined or modified, an optional WHERE clause can be specified. Rows that don't satisfy this WHERE clause will be filtered out. This allows a set of tables to be partially replicated. The row filter is per table. A new row filter can be added simply by specifying a WHERE clause after the table name. The WHERE clause must be enclosed by parentheses. The row filter WHERE clause for a table added to a publication that publishes UPDATE and/or DELETE operations must contain only columns that are covered by REPLICA IDENTITY. The row filter WHERE clause for a table added to a publication that publishes INSERT can use any column. If the row filter evaluates to NULL, it is regarded as "false". The WHERE clause only allows simple expressions that don't have user-defined functions, user-defined operators, user-defined types, user-defined collations, non-immutable built-in functions, or references to system columns. These restrictions could be addressed in the future. If you choose to do the initial table synchronization, only data that satisfies the row filters is copied to the subscriber. If the subscription has several publications in which a table has been published with different WHERE clauses, rows that satisfy ANY of the expressions will be copied. If a subscriber is a pre-15 version, the initial table synchronization won't use row filters even if they are defined in the publisher. The row filters are applied before publishing the changes. If the subscription has several publications in which the same table has been published with different filters (for the same publish operation), those expressions get OR'ed together so that rows satisfying any of the expressions will be replicated. This means all the other filters become redundant if (a) one of the publications have no filter at all, (b) one of the publications was created using FOR ALL TABLES, (c) one of the publications was created using FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA and the table belongs to that same schema. If your publication contains a partitioned table, the publication parameter publish_via_partition_root determines if it uses the partition's row filter (if the parameter is false, the default) or the root partitioned table's row filter. Psql commands \dRp+ and \d <table-name> will display any row filters.

2022-02-03Add UNIQUE null treatment optionPeter Eisentraut
The SQL standard has been ambiguous about whether null values in unique constraints should be considered equal or not. Different implementations have different behaviors. In the SQL:202x draft, this has been formalized by making this implementation-defined and adding an option on unique constraint definitions UNIQUE [ NULLS [NOT] DISTINCT ] to choose a behavior explicitly. This patch adds this option to PostgreSQL. The default behavior remains UNIQUE NULLS DISTINCT. Making this happen in the btree code is pretty easy; most of the patch is just to carry the flag around to all the places that need it. The CREATE UNIQUE INDEX syntax extension is not from the standard, it's my own invention. I named all the internal flags, catalog columns, etc. in the negative ("nulls not distinct") so that the default PostgreSQL behavior is the default if the flag is false.

2022-01-16Add stxdinherit flag to pg_statistic_ext_dataTomas Vondra
Add pg_statistic_ext_data.stxdinherit flag, so that for each extended statistics definition we can store two versions of data - one for the relation alone, one for the whole inheritance tree. This is analogous to pg_statistic.stainherit, but we failed to include such flag in catalogs for extended statistics, and we had to work around it (see commits 859b3003de, 36c4bc6e72 and 20b9fa308e). This changes the relationship between the two catalogs storing extended statistics objects (pg_statistic_ext and pg_statistic_ext_data). Until now, there was a simple 1:1 mapping - for each definition there was one pg_statistic_ext_data row, and this row was inserted while creating the statistics (and then updated during ANALYZE). With the stxdinherit flag, we don't know how many rows there will be (child relations may be added after the statistics object is defined), so there may be up to two rows. We could make CREATE STATISTICS to always create both rows, but that seems wasteful - without partitioning we only need stxdinherit=false rows, and declaratively partitioned tables need only stxdinherit=true. So we no longer initialize pg_statistic_ext_data in CREATE STATISTICS, and instead make that a responsibility of ANALYZE. Which is what we do for regular statistics too.

2021-12-15Always use ReleaseTupleDesc after lookup_rowtype_tupdesc et al.Tom Lane
The API spec for lookup_rowtype_tupdesc previously said you could use either ReleaseTupleDesc or DecrTupleDescRefCount. However, the latter choice means the caller must be certain that the returned tupdesc is refcounted. I don't recall right now whether that was always true when this spec was written, but it's certainly not always true since we introduced shared record typcaches for parallel workers. That means that callers using DecrTupleDescRefCount are dependent on typcache behavior details that they probably shouldn't be. Hence, change the API spec to say that you must call ReleaseTupleDesc, and fix the half-dozen callers that weren't. AFAICT this is just future-proofing, there's no live bug here. So no back-patch.

Otherwise, things still broke. As before, in a cluster having used CIC while having enabled prepared transactions, queries that use the resulting index can silently fail to find rows. It may be necessary to reindex to recover from past occurrences; REINDEX CONCURRENTLY suffices.

2021-09-08Disable anonymous record hash support except in special casesPeter Eisentraut
Commit 01e658fa74 added hash support for row types. This also added support for hashing anonymous record types, using the same approach that the type cache uses for comparison support for record types: It just reports that it works, but it might fail at run time if a component type doesn't actually support the operation. We get away with that for comparison because most types support that. But some types don't support hashing, so the current state can result in failures at run time where the planner chooses hashing over sorting, whereas that previously worked if only sorting was an option. We do, however, want the record hashing support for path tracking in recursive unions, and the SEARCH and CYCLE clauses built on that. In that case, hashing is the only plan option. So enable that, this commit implements the following approach: The type cache does not report that hashing is available for the record type. This undoes that part of 01e658fa74. Instead, callers that require hashing no matter what can override that result themselves. This patch only touches the callers to make the aforementioned recursive query cases work, namely the parse analysis of unions, as well as the hash_array() function.

2021-08-16Reduce memory consumption for pending invalidation messages.Tom Lane
The existing data structures in inval.c are fairly inefficient for the common case of a command or subtransaction that registers a small number of cache invalidation events. While this doesn't matter if we commit right away, it can build up to a lot of bloat in a transaction that contains many DDL operations. By making a few more assumptions about the expected use-case, we can switch to a representation using densely-packed arrays. Although this eliminates some data-copying, it doesn't seem to make much difference time-wise. But the space consumption decreases substantially. Patch by me; thanks to Nathan Bossart for review.

2021-07-27Use the "pg_temp" schema alias in EXPLAIN and related output.Tom Lane
This patch causes EXPLAIN output to refer to objects that are in the current session's temp schema with the "pg_temp" schema alias rather than that schema's actual name. This is useful for our own testing purposes since it will stabilize EXPLAIN VERBOSE output for such cases, allowing us to use that in regression tests. It should be less confusing for end users too. Since ruleutils.c needs to change behavior for this, the change also leaks into a few other users of ruleutils.c, for example pg_get_viewdef(). AFAICS that won't cause any problems. We did find that aggressively trying to change this behavior across-the-board would cause issues, but as long as "pg_temp" only appears within generated SQL text, I think it'll be fine. Along the way, make get_namespace_name_or_temp conform to the same API as get_namespace_name, ie that it returns a palloc'd string or NULL. The current behavior hasn't caused any bugs since no callers attempt to pfree the result, but if it gets more widespread usage that could become a problem.

2021-07-05Reduce overhead of cache-clobber testing in LookupOpclassInfo().Tom Lane
Commit 03ffc4d6d added logic to bypass all caching behavior in LookupOpclassInfo when CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS is enabled. It doesn't look like I stopped to think much about what that would cost, but recent investigation shows that the cost is enormous: it roughly doubles the time needed for cache-clobber test runs. There does seem to be value in this behavior when trying to test the opclass-cache loading logic itself, but for other purposes the cost is excessive. Hence, let's back off to doing this only when debug_invalidate_system_caches_always is at least 3; or in older branches, when CLOBBER_CACHE_RECURSIVELY is defined. While here, clean up some other minor issues in LookupOpclassInfo. Re-order the code so we aren't left with broken cache entries (leading to later core dumps) in the unlikely case that we suffer OOM while trying to allocate space for a new entry. (That seems to be my oversight in 03ffc4d6d.) Also, in >= v13, stop allocating one array entry too many. That's evidently left over from sloppy reversion in 851b14b0c.

2021-07-01Improve various places that double the size of a bufferDavid Rowley
Several places were performing a tight loop to determine the first power of 2 number that's > or >= the required memory. Instead of using a loop for that, we can use pg_nextpower2_32 or pg_nextpower2_64. When we need a power of 2 number equal to or greater than a given amount, we just pass the amount to the nextpower2 function. When we need a power of 2 greater than the amount, we just pass the amount + 1. Additionally, in tsearch there were a couple of locations that were performing a while loop when a simple "if" would have done. In both of these locations only 1 item is being added, so the loop could only have ever iterated once. Changing the loop into an if statement makes the code very slightly more optimal as the condition is checked once rather than twice. There are quite a few remaining locations that increase the size of the buffer in the following form: while (reqsize >= buflen) { buflen *= 2; buf = repalloc(buf, buflen); } These are not touched in this commit. repalloc will error out for sizes larger than MaxAllocSize. Changing these to use pg_nextpower2_32 would remove the chance of that error being raised. It's unclear from the code if the sizes could ever become that large, so err on the side of caution.

2021-04-28Allow a partdesc-omitting-partitions to be cachedAlvaro Herrera
Makes partition descriptor acquisition faster during the transient period in which a partition is in the process of being detached. This also adds the restriction that only one partition can be in pending-detach state for a partitioned table. While at it, return find_inheritance_children() API to what it was before 71f4c8c6f74b, and create a separate find_inheritance_children_extended() that returns detailed info about detached partitions. (This incidentally fixes a bug in 8aba9322511 whereby a memory context holding a transient partdesc is reparented to a NULL PortalContext, leading to permanent leak of that memory. The fix is to no longer rely on reparenting contexts to PortalContext. Reported by Amit Langote.)

2021-04-27Fix Logical Replication of Truncate in synchronous commit mode.Amit Kapila
The Truncate operation acquires an exclusive lock on the target relation and indexes. It then waits for logical replication of the operation to finish at commit. Now because we are acquiring the shared lock on the target index to get index attributes in pgoutput while sending the changes for the Truncate operation, it leads to a deadlock. Actually, we don't need to acquire a lock on the target index as we build the cache entry using a historic snapshot and all the later changes are absorbed while decoding WAL. So, we wrote a special purpose function for logical replication to get a bitmap of replica identity attribute numbers where we get that information without locking the target index. We decided not to backpatch this as there doesn't seem to be any field complaint about this issue since it was introduced in commit 5dfd1e5a in v11.

2021-04-06Clean up treatment of missing default and CHECK-constraint records.Tom Lane
Andrew Gierth reported that it's possible to crash the backend if no pg_attrdef record is found to match an attribute that has atthasdef set. AttrDefaultFetch warns about this situation, but then leaves behind a relation tupdesc that has null "adbin" pointer(s), which most places don't guard against. We considered promoting the warning to an error, but throwing errors during relcache load is pretty drastic: it effectively locks one out of using the relation at all. What seems better is to leave the load-time behavior as a warning, but then throw an error in any code path that wants to use a default and can't find it. This confines the error to a subset of INSERT/UPDATE operations on the table, and in particular will at least allow a pg_dump to succeed. Also, we should fix AttrDefaultFetch to not leave any null pointers in the tupdesc, because that just creates an untested bug hazard. While at it, apply the same philosophy of "warn at load, throw error only upon use of the known-missing info" to CHECK constraints. CheckConstraintFetch is very nearly the same logic as AttrDefaultFetch, but for reasons lost in the mists of time, it was throwing ERROR for the same cases that AttrDefaultFetch treats as WARNING. Make the two functions more nearly alike. In passing, get rid of potentially-O(N^2) loops in equalTupleDesc by making AttrDefaultFetch sort the entries after fetching them, so that equalTupleDesc can assume that entries in two equal tupdescs must be in matching order. (CheckConstraintFetch already was sorting CHECK constraints, but equalTupleDesc hadn't been told about it.) There's some argument for back-patching this, but with such a small number of field reports, I'm content to fix it in HEAD. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]

2021-03-25ALTER TABLE ... DETACH PARTITION ... CONCURRENTLYAlvaro Herrera
Allow a partition be detached from its partitioned table without blocking concurrent queries, by running in two transactions and only requiring ShareUpdateExclusive in the partitioned table. Because it runs in two transactions, it cannot be used in a transaction block. This is the main reason to use dedicated syntax: so that users can choose to use the original mode if they need it. But also, it doesn't work when a default partition exists (because an exclusive lock would still need to be obtained on it, in order to change its partition constraint.) In case the second transaction is cancelled or a crash occurs, there's ALTER TABLE .. DETACH PARTITION .. FINALIZE, which executes the final steps. The main trick to make this work is the addition of column pg_inherits.inhdetachpending, initially false; can only be set true in the first part of this command. Once that is committed, concurrent transactions that use a PartitionDirectory will include or ignore partitions so marked: in optimizer they are ignored if the row is marked committed for the snapshot; in executor they are always included. As a result, and because of the way PartitionDirectory caches partition descriptors, queries that were planned before the detach will see the rows in the detached partition and queries that are planned after the detach, won't. A CHECK constraint is created that duplicates the partition constraint. This is probably not strictly necessary, and some users will prefer to remove it afterwards, but if the partition is re-attached to a partitioned table, the constraint needn't be rechecked.

2021-03-24Revert "Enable parallel SELECT for "INSERT INTO ... SELECT ..."."Amit Kapila
To allow inserts in parallel-mode this feature has to ensure that all the constraints, triggers, etc. are parallel-safe for the partition hierarchy which is costly and we need to find a better way to do that.

2021-03-10Enable parallel SELECT for "INSERT INTO ... SELECT ...".Amit Kapila
Parallel SELECT can't be utilized for INSERT in the following cases: - INSERT statement uses the ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE clause - Target table has a parallel-unsafe: trigger, index expression or predicate, column default expression or check constraint - Target table has a parallel-unsafe domain constraint on any column - Target table is a partitioned table with a parallel-unsafe partition key expression or support function The planner is updated to perform additional parallel-safety checks for the cases listed above, for determining whether it is safe to run INSERT in parallel-mode with an underlying parallel SELECT. The planner will consider using parallel SELECT for "INSERT INTO ... SELECT ...", provided nothing unsafe is found from the additional parallel-safety checks, or from the existing parallel-safety checks for SELECT. While checking parallel-safety, we need to check it for all the partitions on the table which can be costly especially when we decide not to use a parallel plan. So, in a separate patch, we will introduce a GUC and or a reloption to enable/disable parallelism for Insert statements. Prior to entering parallel-mode for the execution of INSERT with parallel SELECT, a TransactionId is acquired and assigned to the current transaction state. This is necessary to prevent the INSERT from attempting to assign the TransactionId whilst in parallel-mode, which is not allowed. This approach has a disadvantage in that if the underlying SELECT does not return any rows, then the TransactionId is not used, however that shouldn't happen in practice in many cases.

2021-01-26Improve performance of repeated CALLs within plpgsql procedures.Tom Lane
This patch essentially is cleaning up technical debt left behind by the original implementation of plpgsql procedures, particularly commit d92bc83c4. That patch (or more precisely, follow-on patches fixing its worst bugs) forced us to re-plan CALL and DO statements each time through, if we're in a non-atomic context. That wasn't for any fundamental reason, but just because use of a saved plan requires having a ResourceOwner to hold a reference count for the plan, and we had no suitable resowner at hand, nor would the available APIs support using one if we did. While it's not that expensive to create a "plan" for CALL/DO, the cycles do add up in repeated executions. This patch therefore makes the following API changes: * GetCachedPlan/ReleaseCachedPlan are modified to let the caller specify which resowner to use to pin the plan, rather than forcing use of CurrentResourceOwner. * spi.c gains a "SPI_execute_plan_extended" entry point that lets callers say which resowner to use to pin the plan. This borrows the idea of an options struct from the recently added SPI_prepare_extended, hopefully allowing future options to be added without more API breaks. This supersedes SPI_execute_plan_with_paramlist (which I've marked deprecated) as well as SPI_execute_plan_with_receiver (which is new in v14, so I just took it out altogether). * I also took the opportunity to remove the crude hack of letting plpgsql reach into SPI private data structures to mark SPI plans as "no_snapshot". It's better to treat that as an option of SPI_prepare_extended. Now, when running a non-atomic procedure or DO block that contains any CALL or DO commands, plpgsql creates a ResourceOwner that will be used to pin the plans of the CALL/DO commands. (In an atomic context, we just use CurrentResourceOwner, as before.) Having done this, we can just save CALL/DO plans normally, whether or not they are used across transaction boundaries. This seems to be good for something like 2X speedup of a CALL of a trivial procedure with a few simple argument expressions. By restricting the creation of an extra ResourceOwner like this, there's essentially zero penalty in cases that can't benefit.
