2023-04-13Harmonize some more function parameter names.Peter Geoghegan
Make sure that function declarations use names that exactly match the corresponding names from function definitions in a few places. These inconsistencies were all introduced relatively recently, after the code base had parameter name mismatches fixed in bulk (see commits starting with commits 4274dc22 and 035ce1fe). pg_bsd_indent still has a couple of similar inconsistencies, which I (pgeoghegan) have left untouched for now. Like all earlier commits that cleaned up function parameter names, this commit was written with help from clang-tidy.
2023-04-04Add a way to get the current function's OID in pl/pgsql.Tom Lane
Invent "GET DIAGNOSTICS oid_variable = PG_ROUTINE_OID". This is useful for avoiding the maintenance nuisances that come with embedding a function's name in its body, as one might do for logging purposes for example. Typically users would cast the result to regproc or regprocedure to get something human-readable, but we won't pre-judge whether that's appropriate.

2023-02-15Rename force_parallel_mode to debug_parallel_queryDavid Rowley
force_parallel_mode is meant to be used to allow us to exercise the parallel query infrastructure to ensure that it's working as we expect. It seems some users think this GUC is for forcing the query planner into picking a parallel plan regardless of the costs. A quick look at the documentation would have made them realize that they were wrong, but the GUC is likely too conveniently named which, evidently, seems to often result in users expecting that it forces the planner into usefully parallelizing queries. Here we rename the GUC to something which casual users are less likely to mistakenly think is what they need to make their query run more quickly. For now, the old name can still be used. We'll revisit if the old name mapping can be removed once the buildfarm configs are all updated.

2023-01-25plpython: Stop undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE, _XOPEN_SOURCEAndres Freund
We undefined them to avoid warnings about macro redefinitions. But we haven't fully followed the necessary include order, since at least 147c2482542, in 2011. Recently the combination of the include order rules not being followed and undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE started to cause a compile failure, starting with 03023a2664f. Undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE hides clock_gettime(), which is referenced in an inline function as of 03023a2664f, whereas it was a macro before. After seeing some evidence that undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE et al isn't required, I tried to build postgres with plpython on most of our supported platforms (except DragonFlyBSD and Illumos, but similar systems were tested), with/without the #undefines. No compiler warning / behavioral difference. The oldest supported python version, 3.2, defines _POSIX_C_SOURCE to 200112L ad _XOPEN_SOURCE to 600, whereas newer versions of python use 200809L/700 respectively. As _POSIX_C_SOURCE/_XOPEN_SOURCE will default to the newer operating system on most platforms, it's possible that when using python 3.2 new warnings would be emitted - but that seems acceptable. It's possible that this approach won't work on some older platforms. But getting rid of most of the include-order complexity seems promising, and it's an easily revertible patch if we end up having to go another way.

2023-01-01In plpgsql, don't preassign portal names to bound cursor variables.Tom Lane
A refcursor variable that is bound to a specific query (by declaring it with "CURSOR FOR") now chooses a portal name in the same way as an unbound, plain refcursor variable. Its string value starts out as NULL, and unless that's overridden by manual assignment, it will be replaced by a unique-within-session portal name during OPEN. The previous behavior was to initialize such variables to contain their own name, resulting in that also being the portal name unless the user overwrote it before OPEN. The trouble with this is that it causes failures due to conflicting portal names if the same cursor variable name is used in different functions. It is pretty non-orthogonal to have bound and unbound refcursor variables behave differently on this point, too, so let's change it. This change can cause compatibility problems for applications that open a bound cursor in a plpgsql function and then use it in the calling code without explicitly passing back the refcursor value (portal name). If the calling code simply assumes that the portal name matches the called function's variable name, it will now fail. That can be fixed by explicitly assigning a string value to the refcursor variable before OPEN, e.g. DECLARE myc CURSOR FOR SELECT ...; BEGIN myc := 'myc'; -- add this OPEN myc; We have no documentation examples showing the troublesome usage pattern, so we can hope it's rare in practice.

2022-12-29perl: Hide warnings inside perl.h when using gcc compatible compilerAndres Freund
New versions of perl trigger warnings within perl.h with our compiler flags. At least -Wdeclaration-after-statement, -Wshadow=compatible-local are known to be problematic. To avoid these warnings, conditionally use #pragma GCC system_header before including plperl.h. Alternatively, we could add the include paths for problematic headers with -isystem, but that is a larger hammer and is harder to search for. A more granular alternative would be to use #pragma GCC diagnostic push/ignored/pop, but gcc warns about unknown warnings being ignored, so every to-be-ignored-temporarily compiler warning would require its own pg_config.h symbol and #ifdef. As the warnings are voluminous, it makes sense to backpatch this change. But don't do so yet, we first want gather buildfarm coverage - it's e.g. possible that some compiler claiming to be gcc compatible has issues with the pragma.

2022-12-27Convert the reg* input functions to report (most) errors softly.Tom Lane
This is not really complete, but it catches most cases of practical interest. The main omissions are: * regtype, regprocedure, and regoperator parse type names by calling the main grammar, so any grammar-detected syntax error will still be a hard error. Also, if one includes a type modifier in such a type specification, errors detected by the typmodin function will be hard errors. * Lookup errors are handled just by passing missing_ok = true to the relevant catalog lookup function. Because we've used quite a restrictive definition of "missing_ok", this means that edge cases such as "the named schema exists, but you lack USAGE permission on it" are still hard errors. It would make sense to me to replace most/all missing_ok parameters with an escontext parameter and then allow these additional lookup failure cases to be trapped too. But that's a job for some other day. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]

2022-10-14Store GUC data in a memory context, instead of using malloc().Tom Lane
The only real argument for using malloc directly was that we needed the ability to not throw error on OOM; but mcxt.c grew that feature awhile ago. Keeping the data in a memory context improves accountability and debuggability --- for example, without this it's almost impossible to detect memory leaks in the GUC code with anything less costly than valgrind. Moreover, the next patch in this series will add a hash table for GUC lookup, and it'd be pretty silly to be using palloc-dependent hash facilities alongside malloc'd storage of the underlying data. This is a bit invasive though, in particular causing an API break for GUC check hooks that want to modify the GUC's value or use an "extra" data structure. They must now use guc_malloc() and guc_free() instead of malloc() and free(). Failure to change affected code will result in assertion failures or worse; but thanks to recent effort in the mcxt infrastructure, it shouldn't be too hard to diagnose such oversights (at least in assert-enabled builds). One note is that this changes ParseLongOption() to return short-lived palloc'd not malloc'd data. There wasn't any caller for which the previous definition was better.

2022-10-07meson: Add support for building with precompiled headersAndres Freund
This substantially speeds up building for windows, due to the vast amount of headers included via windows.h. A cross build from linux targetting mingw goes from 994.11user 136.43system 0:31.58elapsed 3579%CPU to 422.41user 89.05system 0:14.35elapsed 3562%CPU The wins on windows are similar-ish (but I don't have a system at hand just now for actual numbers). Targetting other operating systems the wins are far smaller (tested linux, macOS, FreeBSD). For now precompiled headers are disabled by default, it's not clear how well they work on all platforms. E.g. on FreeBSD gcc doesn't seem to have working support, but clang does. When doing a full build precompiled headers are only beneficial for targets with multiple .c files, as meson builds a separate precompiled header for each target (so that different compilation options take effect). This commit therefore only changes target with at least two .c files to use precompiled headers. Because this commit adds b_pch=false to the default_options new build directories will have precompiled headers disabled by default, however existing build directories will continue use the default value of b_pch, which is true. Note that using precompiled headers with ccache requires setting CCACHE_SLOPPINESS=pch_defines,time_macros to get hits.

2022-09-27Introduce GUC_NO_RESET flag.Tom Lane
Previously, the transaction-property GUCs such as transaction_isolation could be reset after starting a transaction, because we marked them as GUC_NO_RESET_ALL but still allowed a targeted RESET. That leads to assertion failures or worse, because those properties aren't supposed to change after we've acquired a transaction snapshot. There are some NO_RESET_ALL variables for which RESET is okay, so we can't just redefine the semantics of that flag. Instead introduce a separate GUC_NO_RESET flag. Mark "seed", as well as the transaction property GUCs, as GUC_NO_RESET. We have to disallow GUC_ACTION_SAVE as well as straight RESET, because otherwise a function having a "SET transaction_isolation" clause can still break things: the end-of-function restore action is equivalent to a RESET. No back-patch, as it's conceivable that someone is doing something this patch will forbid (like resetting one of these GUCs at transaction start, or "CREATE FUNCTION ... SET transaction_read_only = 1") and not running into problems with it today. Given how long we've had this issue and not noticed, the side effects in non-assert builds can't be too serious.

2022-09-22meson: Add initial version of meson based build systemAndres Freund
Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system. After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects. We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of the new build system and mature it in tree. This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but building slower). Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only extensions) are not yet addressed. When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism. The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported versions build with meson.

2022-09-16Improve plpgsql's ability to handle arguments declared as RECORD.Tom Lane
Treat arguments declared as RECORD as if that were a polymorphic type (which it is, sort of), in that we substitute the actual argument type while forming the function cache lookup key. This allows the specific composite type to be known in some cases where it was not before, at the cost of making a separate function cache entry for each named composite type that's passed to the function during a session. The particular symptom discussed in bug #17610 could be solved in other more-efficient ways, but only at the cost of considerable development work, and there are other cases where we'd still fail without this.

2022-09-14Bump minimum Perl version to 5.14John Naylor
The oldest vendor-shipped Perl in the buildfarm is 5.14.2, which is the last version that Debian Wheezy shipped. That OS is EOL, but we keep it running because there is no other convenient way to test certain non-mainstream 32-bit platforms. There is no bugfix in the 5.14.2 release that is required, and yet it's also not the latest minor release -- that would be 5.14.4. To clarify the situation, we have thus arranged the buildfarm to test 5.14.0. That allows configure scripts and documentation to state 5.14 without fine print. The MSVC build didn't check the version, since our previous minimum 5.8.3 was considered too old to check for on Windows. We will need a check for Windows sometime during the v16 cycle, but that could be rendered moot by the impending Meson conversion, so it seems safe to just document the requirement for now.

2022-07-19Fix missed corner cases for grantable permissions on GUCs.Tom Lane
We allow users to set the values of not-yet-loaded extension GUCs, remembering those values in "placeholder" GUC entries. When/if the extension is loaded later in the session, we need to verify that the user had permissions to set the GUC. That was done correctly before commit a0ffa885e, but as of that commit, we'd check the permissions of the active role when the LOAD happens, not the role that had set the value. (This'd be a security bug if it had made it into a released version.) In principle this is simple enough to fix: we just need to remember the exact role OID that set each GUC value, and use that not GetUserID() when verifying permissions. Maintaining that data in the guc.c data structures is slightly tedious, but fortunately it's all basically just copy-n-paste of the logic for tracking the GucSource of each setting, as we were already doing. Another oversight is that validate_option_array_item() hadn't been taught to check for granted GUC privileges. This appears to manifest only in that ALTER ROLE/DATABASE RESET ALL will fail to reset settings that the user should be allowed to reset. Patch by myself and Nathan Bossart, per report from Nathan Bossart. Back-patch to v15 where the faulty code came in.

2022-07-18Mark all symbols exported from extension libraries PGDLLEXPORT.Andres Freund
This is in preparation for defaulting to -fvisibility=hidden in extensions, instead of relying on all symbols in extensions to be exported. This should have been committed before 089480c0770, but something in my commit scripts went wrong.

2022-07-13Revert "Use wildcards instead of manually-maintained file lists in */nls.mk."Tom Lane
This reverts commit 617d69141220f277170927e03a19d2f1b77aed77. While I still think the basic idea is attractive, we need to sort out what happens with built .c files, and there also seem to be VPATH issues.
2022-07-13Use wildcards instead of manually-maintained file lists in */nls.mk.Tom Lane
The backend already used a mechanically-generated list of *.c files, but everywhere else we had a manually-written-out list of files in which to seek translatable messages. Commit b0a55e432 contains the latest in a long line of failures to update those lists. Rather than manually fix its oversight, let's change to using "$(wildcard *.c)" in all these nls.mk files. Many of these files also have manual references to some *.c files in other directories, most often src/common/. Perhaps we should try to improve that situation too; but it's a bit less clear how, so for now just fix the local file references.

2022-07-13Remove useless assertionsPeter Eisentraut
We don't need Assert(IsA(foo, String)) right before running strVal(foo), since strVal() already does the assertion internally (via castNode()).
2022-07-13NLS: Put list of available languages into LINGUAS filesPeter Eisentraut
This moves the list of available languages from nls.mk into a separate file called po/LINGUAS. Advantages: - It keeps the parts notionally managed by programmers (nls.mk) separate from the parts notionally managed by translators (LINGUAS). - It's the standard practice recommended by the Gettext manual nowadays. - The Meson build system also supports this layout (and of course doesn't know anything about our custom nls.mk), so this would enable sharing the list of languages between the two build systems. (The MSVC build system currently finds all po files by globbing, so it is not affected by this change.)

2022-07-08Remove HP-UX port.Thomas Munro
HP-UX hardware is no longer produced, build farm coverage recently ended, and there are no known active maintainers targeting this OS. Since there is a major rewrite of the build system in the pipeline for PostgreSQL 16, and that requires development, testing and maintainance for each OS and tool chain, it seems like a good time to drop support for: * HP-UX, the operating system. * HP aCC, the HP-UX native compiler.

2022-06-23PL/Tcl: Don't link with -lc explicitlyPeter Eisentraut
It has been reported that PL/Tcl built on macOS with GCC >=11 crashes. The reason is that there is a hash_search() function in the operating system's libraries, and that ends up being called instead of the one in postgres. This has something to do with how the linker resolves references between the various possibilities it has been given, and somehow something changed that it is now picking that one in this configuration. We found that removing the -lc from the link command line fixes this problem. The -lc was introduced a long time ago in commit e3909672f12e0ddf3e202b824fda068ad2195ef2, and we think the reasons might be obsolete, so we decided that we'll try to just remove it and see if any problems arise.

2022-06-01Fix pl/perl test case so it will still work under Perl 5.36.Tom Lane
Perl 5.36 has reclassified the warning condition that this test case used, so that the expected error fails to appear. Tweak the test so it instead exercises a case that's handled the same way in all Perl versions of interest. This appears to meet our standards for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it changes no user-visible behavior but enables testing of old branches with newer tools. Hence, back-patch as far as 9.2. Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker, per report from Jitka Plesníková. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]
