Previously nested grouping set specifications accidentally weren't
flattened, but instead contained the nested specification as a element
in the outer list.
Fix this by, as actually documented in comments, concatenating the
nested set specification into the outer one. Also add tests to prevent
this from breaking again.

Backpatch: 9.5, where grouping sets were introduced
New FK relationships for pg_transform. Also findoidjoins now detects a few
relationships it didn't before for pre-existing catalogs, as a result of
new regression tests leaving entries in those catalogs that weren't there
before.
The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method
API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without
specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can
implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable
thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will
pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural
language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level
support object needed is a single handler function identified by having
a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog
altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature.
Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments
(the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at
ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright
unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples.
Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable
within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more
honestly with methods that can't support that requirement.
Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix
assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as
failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering).
Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too.
Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API
in production.
UPDATE ... WHERE CURRENT OF would not work in conjunction with
RLS. Arrange to allow the CURRENT OF expression to be pushed down.
Issue noted by Peter Geoghegan. Patch by Dean Rasheed. Back patch
to 9.5 where RLS was introduced.
The wrong is_null flag was being passed to datum_to_json. Also, null
object key values are not permitted, and this was not being checked
for. Add regression tests covering these cases, and also add those tests
to the json set, even though it was doing the right thing.
Fixes bug #13514, initially diagnosed by Tom Lane.
Handling of assigned-to expressions with indirection (e.g. set f1[1] =
3) was broken for ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE. The problem was that
ParseState was consulted to determine if an INSERT-appropriate or
UPDATE-appropriate behavior should be used when transforming expressions
with indirections. When the wrong path was taken the old row was
substituted with NULL, leading to wrong results..
To fix remove p_is_update and only use p_is_insert to decide how to
transform the assignment expression, and uset p_is_insert while parsing
the on conflict statement. This isn't particularly pretty, but it's not
any worse than before.

In the passing, also move AT_ReAddComment to more logical position in the
enum, after all the Constraint-related subcommands.
This fixes a compiler warning, added by commit e42375fc. Backpatch to 9.5,
like that patch.
Previously, there was an inconsistency across json/jsonb operators that
operate on datums containing JSON arrays -- only some operators
supported negative array count-from-the-end subscripting. Specifically,
only a new-to-9.5 jsonb deletion operator had support (the new "jsonb -
integer" operator). This inconsistency seemed likely to be
counter-intuitive to users. To fix, allow all places where the user can
supply an integer subscript to accept a negative subscript value,
including path-orientated operators and functions, as well as other
extraction operators. This will need to be called out as an
incompatibility in the 9.5 release notes, since it's possible that users
are relying on certain established extraction operators changed here
yielding NULL in the event of a negative subscript.
For the json type, this requires adding a way of cheaply getting the
total JSON array element count ahead of time when parsing arrays with a
negative subscript involved, necessitating an ad-hoc lex and parse.
This is followed by a "conversion" from a negative subscript to its
equivalent positive-wise value using the count. From there on, it's as
if a positive-wise value was originally provided.
Note that there is still a minor inconsistency here across jsonb
deletion operators. Unlike the aforementioned new "-" deletion operator
that accepts an integer on its right hand side, the new "#-" path
orientated deletion variant does not throw an error when it appears like
an array subscript (input that could be recognized by as an integer
literal) is being used on an object, which is wrong-headed. The reason
for not being stricter is that it could be the case that an object pair
happens to have a key value that looks like an integer; in general,
these two possibilities are impossible to differentiate with rhs path
text[] argument elements. However, we still don't allow the "#-"
path-orientated deletion operator to perform array-style subscripting.
Rather, we just return the original left operand value in the event of a
negative subscript (which seems analogous to how the established
"jsonb/json #> text[]" path-orientated operator may yield NULL in the
event of an invalid subscript).
In passing, make SetArrayPath() stricter about not accepting cases where
there is trailing non-numeric garbage bytes rather than a clean NUL
byte. This means, for example, that strings like "10e10" are now not
accepted as an array subscript of 10 by some new-to-9.5 path-orientated
jsonb operators (e.g. the new #- operator). Finally, remove dead code
for jsonb subscript deletion; arguably, this should have been done in
commit b81c7b409.

In commit 1345cc67bb, I introduced caching
of expressions representing type-cast operations into plpgsql. However,
I supposed that I could cache both the expression trees and the evaluation
state trees derived from them for the life of the session. This doesn't
work, because we execute the expressions in plpgsql's simple_eval_estate,
which has an ecxt_per_query_memory that is only transaction-lifespan.
Therefore we can end up putting pointers into the evaluation state tree
that point to transaction-lifespan memory; in particular this happens if
the cast expression calls a SQL-language function, as reported by Geoff
Winkless.
The minimum-risk fix seems to be to treat the state trees the same way
we do for "simple expression" trees in plpgsql, ie create them in the
simple_eval_estate's ecxt_per_query_memory, which means recreating them
once per transaction.
Since I had to introduce bookkeeping overhead for that anyway, I bought
back some of the added cost by sharing the read-only expression trees
across all functions in the session, instead of using a per-function
table as originally. The simple-expression bookkeeping takes care of
the recursive-usage risk that I was concerned about avoiding before.
At some point we should take a harder look at how all this works,
and see if we can't reduce the amount of tree reinitialization needed.
But that won't happen for 9.5.
Not only did this test fail to test what it was supposed to test, but it
left a user definition lying around, which caused subsequent runs of the
regression tests to fail.
This tells you what fraction of NOTIFY's queue is currently filled.
Brendan Jurd, reviewed by Merlin Moncure and Gurjeet Singh. A few
further tweaks by me.
Other options cannot be changed, as it's not totally clear if cached plans
would need to be invalidated if one of the other options change. Selectivity
estimator functions only change plan costs, not correctness of plans, so
those should be safe.

In the test query I added for ALTER TABLE retaining comments, the order of
the result rows was not stable, and varied across systems. Add an ORDER BY
to make the order predictable. This should fix the buildfarm failures.
When a column's datatype is changed, ATExecAlterColumnType() rebuilds all
the affected indexes and constraints, and the comments from the old
indexes/constraints were not carried over.
To fix, create a synthetic COMMENT ON command in the work queue, to re-add
any comments on constraints. For indexes, there's a comment field in
IndexStmt that is used.
This fixes bug #13126, reported by Kirill Simonov. Original patch by
Michael Paquier, reviewed by Petr Jelinek and me. This bug is present in
all versions, but only backpatch to 9.5. Given how minor the issue is, it
doesn't seem worth the work and risk to backpatch further than that.
As noted by Noah Misch, CreatePolicy() and AlterPolicy() omit to call
assign_expr_collations() on the node trees. Fix the omission and add
his test case to the rowsecurity regression test.
Create a log file for each test run. Stdout and stderr of the test script,
as well as any subprocesses run as part of the test, are redirected to
the log file. This makes it a lot easier to debug test failures. Also print
the test output (ok 12 - ... messages) to the log file, and the command
line of any external programs executed with the system_or_bail and run_log
functions. This makes it a lot easier to debug failing tests.
Modify some of the pg_ctl and other command invocations to not use 'silent'
or 'quiet' options, and don't redirect output to /dev/null, so that you get
all the information in the log instead.
In the passing, construct some command lines in a way that works if $tempdir
contains quote-characters. I haven't systematically gone through all of
them or tested that, so I don't know if this is enough to make that work.
pg_rewind tests had a custom mechanism for creating a similar log file. Use
the new generic facility instead.

As first committed, this view reported on the file contents as they were
at the last SIGHUP event. That's not as useful as reporting on the current
contents, and what's more, it didn't work right on Windows unless the
current session had serviced at least one SIGHUP. Therefore, arrange to
re-read the files when pg_show_all_settings() is called. This requires
only minor refactoring so that we can pass changeVal = false to
set_config_option() so that it won't actually apply any changes locally.
In addition, add error reporting so that errors that would prevent the
configuration files from being loaded, or would prevent individual settings
from being applied, are visible directly in the view. This makes the view
usable for pre-testing whether edits made in the config files will have the
desired effect, before one actually issues a SIGHUP.
I also added an "applied" column so that it's easy to identify entries that
are superseded by later entries; this was the main use-case for the original
design, but it seemed unnecessarily hard to use for that.
Also fix a 9.4.1 regression that allowed multiple entries for a
PGC_POSTMASTER variable to cause bogus complaints in the postmaster log.
(The issue here was that commit bf007a27ac unintentionally reverted
3e3f65973a, which suppressed any duplicate entries within
ParseConfigFp. However, since the original coding of the pg_file_settings
view depended on such suppression *not* happening, we couldn't have fixed
this issue now without first doing something with pg_file_settings.
Now we suppress duplicates by marking them "ignored" within
ProcessConfigFileInternal, which doesn't hide them in the view.)
Lesser changes include:
Drive the view directly off the ConfigVariable list, instead of making a
basically-equivalent second copy of the data. There's no longer any need
to hang onto the data permanently, anyway.
Convert show_all_file_settings() to do its work in one call and return a
tuplestore; this avoids risks associated with assuming that the GUC state
will hold still over the course of query execution. (I think there were
probably latent bugs here, though you might need something like a cursor
on the view to expose them.)
Arrange to run SIGHUP processing in a short-lived memory context, to
forestall process-lifespan memory leaks. (There is one known leak in this
code, in ProcessConfigDirectory; it seems minor enough to not be worth
back-patching a specific fix for.)
Remove mistaken assignment to ConfigFileLineno that caused line counting
after an include_dir directive to be completely wrong.
Add missed failure check in AlterSystemSetConfigFile(). We don't really
expect ParseConfigFp() to fail, but that's not an excuse for not checking.
Commit b488c580ae, which added the DDL command collection feature,
neglected to update the code that commit cac7658205 had previously
added two weeks earlier for the TRANSFORM feature.
Reported by Michael Paquier.
In commit 9e3ad1aac5 I modified plpgsql
to use exec_stmt_return's simple-variables fast path in more cases.
However, I overlooked that there are really two different return
conventions in use here, depending on whether estate->retistuple is true,
and the existing fast-path code had only bothered to handle one of them.
So trying to return a scalar in a function returning composite, or vice
versa, could lead to unexpected error messages (typically "cache lookup
failed for type 0") or to a null-pointer-dereference crash.
In the DTYPE_VAR case, we can just throw error if retistuple is true,
corresponding to what happens in the general-expression code path that was
being used previously. (Perhaps someday both of these code paths should
attempt a coercion, but today is not that day.)
In the REC and ROW cases, just hand the problem to exec_eval_datum()
when not retistuple. Also clean up the ROW coding slightly so it looks
more like exec_eval_datum().
The previous commit also caused exec_stmt_return_next() to be used in
more cases, but that code seems to be OK as-is.

We already tried to improve this once, but the "improved" text was rather

Following recent discussion on -hackers. The underlying function is
also renamed to jsonb_delete_path. The regression tests now don't need
ugly type casts to avoid the ambiguity, so they are also removed.
Catalog version bumped.
Supporting deletion of JSON pairs within jsonb objects using an
array-style integer subscript allowed for surprising outcomes. This was
mostly due to the implementation-defined ordering of pairs within
objects for jsonb.
It also seems desirable to make jsonb integer subscript deletion
consistent with the 9.4 era general purpose integer subscripting
operator for jsonb (although that operator returns NULL when an object
is encountered, while we prefer here to throw an error).
Peter Geoghegan, following discussion on -hackers.
Not sure how "//XXX" got into a committed patch in the first place,
as it's both content-free and against project style. pgindent made a
bit of a hash of it, too.
Going forward, we should have at least one buildfarm member using
"gcc -ansi" to catch such things, at least till such time as we
decide the project target language isn't C90 any more. I've turned
this option on on dromedary.
This reverts commit 5cdf25e168,
which was almost immediately proven insufficient by the buildfarm.
On second thought, the tables involved are not large enough that
autovacuum or autoanalyze would notice them; what seems far more
likely to be the culprit is the database-wide "vacuum analyze"
in the concurrent gist test. That thing has given us one headache
too many, so get rid of it in favor of targeted vacuuming of that
test's own tables only.
Verify that the number of matches is exactly what it should be, not just
that it not be zero. This should help us detect any environment-dependent
issues.
Also, verify that we're getting the expected type of scan plan (either
bitmap or seqscan as appropriate). Right now, this is failing on the
cidrcol test cases, as shown in the output file. I'll look into that
in a bit, but it seems good to commit this as-is temporarily to verify
that it behaves as expected on the buildfarm.
Casting to char, without quotes, does not give the same results as casting
to "char". That meant we were not testing the brin "char" paths at all,
since we ended up with a text operator not a "char" operator.
This test used seqscans on tenk1, with LIMIT, to build test data.
That works most of the time, but if the synchronized-seqscan logic
kicks in, we get varying test data. This seems likely to explain
the erratic test failures on buildfarm member chipmunk, which uses
smaller-than-default shared_buffers. To fix, add ORDER BY clauses to
force the ordering to be what it was implicitly being assumed to be.
Peter Geoghegan had noticed this with respect to one of the trouble
spots, though not the ones actually causing the chipmunk issue.
Some recent buildfarm failures can be explained by supposing that
autovacuum or autoanalyze fired on the tables created by this test,
resulting in plan changes. Do a proactive VACUUM ANALYZE on the
test's principal tables to try to forestall such changes.
add_path_precheck was doing exact comparisons of path costs, but it really
needs to do them fuzzily to be sure it won't reject paths that could
survive add_path's comparisons. (This can only matter if the initial cost
estimate is very close to the final one, but that turns out to often be
true.)
Also, it should ignore startup cost for this purpose if and only if
compare_path_costs_fuzzily would do so. The previous coding always ignored
startup cost for parameterized paths, which is wrong as of commit
3f59be836c555fa6; it could result in improper early rejection of paths that
we care about for SEMI/ANTI joins. It also always considered startup cost
for unparameterized paths, which is just as wrong though the only effect is
to waste planner cycles on paths that can't survive. Instead, it should
consider startup cost only when directed to by the consider_startup/
consider_param_startup relation flags.
Likewise, compare_path_costs_fuzzily should have symmetrical behavior
for parameterized and unparameterized paths. In this case, the best
answer seems to be that after establishing that total costs are fuzzily
equal, we should compare startup costs whether or not the consider_xxx
flags are on. That is what it's always done for unparameterized paths,
so let's make the behavior for parameterized paths match.
These issues were noted while developing the SEMI/ANTI join costing fix
of commit 3f59be836c, but we chose not to back-patch these fixes,
because they can cause changes in the planner's choices among
nearly-same-cost plans. (There is in fact one minor change in plan choice
within the core regression tests.) Destabilizing plan choices in back
branches without very clear improvements is frowned on, so we'll just fix
this in HEAD.
The function is given a fourth parameter, which defaults to true. When
this parameter is true, if the last element of the path is missing
in the original json, jsonb_set creates it in the result and assigns it
the new value. If it is false then the function does nothing unless all
elements of the path are present, including the last.
Based on some original code from Dmitry Dolgov, heavily modified by me.
Catalog version bumped.
opr_sanity.sql has a test checking that relevant properties of built-in
functions match when the same C function is referenced by multiple pg_proc
entries. The test neglected to check proleakproof, though, and when
I added that condition it exposed that xideqint4 hadn't been updated to
match xideq. So fix that as well, and in consequence bump catversion.
This isn't very critical, so no need to worry about fixing back branches.
specparse.y and specscanner.l used "string" as a token name. Now, bison
likes to define each token name as a macro for the token code it assigns,
which means those names are basically off-limits for any other use within
the grammar file or included headers. So names as generic as "string" are
dangerous. This is what was causing the recent failures on protosciurus:
some versions of Solaris' sys/kstat.h use "string" as a field name.
With late-model bison we don't see this problem because the token macros
aren't defined till later (that is why castoroides didn't show the problem
even though it's on the same machine). But protosciurus uses bison 1.875
which defines the token macros up front.
This land mine has been there from day one; we'd have found it sooner
except that protosciurus wasn't trying to run the isolation tests till
recently.
To fix, rename the token to "string_literal" which is hopefully less
likely to collide with names used by system headers. Back-patch to
all branches containing the isolation tests.
