Using PARTITION OF can result in column ordering being changed from the database being dumped, if the partition uses a column layout different from the parent's. It's not pg_dump's job to editorialize on table definitions, so this is not acceptable; back-patch all the way back to pg10, where partitioned tables where introduced. This change also ensures that partitions end up in the correct tablespace, if different from the parent's; this is an oversight in ca4103025dfe (in pg12 only). Partitioned indexes (in pg11) don't have this problem, because they're already created as independent indexes and attached to their parents afterwards. This change also has the advantage that the partition is restorable from the dump (as a standalone table) even if its parent table isn't restored. The original commits (3b23552ad8bb in branch master) failed to cover subsidiary column elements correctly, such as NOT NULL constraint and CHECK constraints, as reported by Rushabh Lathia (initially as a failure to restore serial columns). They were reverted. This recapitulation commit fixes those problems. Add some pg_dump tests to verify these things more exhaustively, including constraints with legacy-inheritance tables, which were not tested originally. In branches 10 and 11, add a local constraint to the pg_dump test partition that was added by commit 2d7eeb1b1492 to master.

When two (or more) transactions are waiting for transaction T1 to release a tuple-level lock, and transaction T1 upgrades its lock to a higher level, a spurious deadlock can be reported among the waiting transactions when T1 finishes. The simplest example case seems to be: T1: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share; Y: select id from job where name = 'a' for update; -- starts waiting for X Z: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share; T1: update job set name = 'b' where id = 1; Z: update job set name = 'c' where id = 1; -- starts waiting for X T1: rollback; At this point, transaction Y is rolled back on account of a deadlock: Y holds the heavyweight tuple lock and is waiting for the Xmax to be released, while Z holds part of the multixact and tries to acquire the heavyweight lock (per protocol) and goes to sleep; once X releases its part of the multixact, Z is awakened only to be put back to sleep on the heavyweight lock that Y is holding while sleeping. Kaboom. This can be avoided by having Z skip the heavyweight lock acquisition. As far as I can see, the biggest downside is that if there are multiple Z transactions, the order in which they resume after X finishes is not guaranteed. Backpatch to 9.6. The patch applies cleanly on 9.5, but the new tests don't work there (because isolationtester is not smart enough), so I'm not going to risk it.

Fixes some problems introduced by 6e5f8d489acc: * When reusing conninfo data from the previous connection in \connect, the host address should only be reused if it was specified as hostaddr; if it wasn't, then 'host' is resolved afresh. We were reusing the same IP address, which ignores a possible DNS change as well as any other addresses that the name resolves to than the one that was used in the original connection. * PQhost, PQhostaddr: Don't present user-specified hostaddr when we have an inet_net_ntop-produced equivalent address. The latter has been put in canonical format, which is cleaner (so it produces "127.0.0.1" when given "host=2130706433", for example). * Document the hostaddr-reusing aspect of \connect. * Fix some code comments Author: Fabien Coelho Reported-by: Noah Misch Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20190527203713.GA58392@gust.leadboat.com https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/313f56ce2d1b9dfd3483e4f39611baa27852835a - Add pg_dumpall --rows-per-insert.

For a non-superuser, changing a comment on a domain constraint was leading to a cache lookup failure as the code tried to perform the ownership lookup on the constraint OID itself, thinking that it was a type, but this check needs to happen on the type the domain constraint relies on. As the type a domain constraint relies on can be guessed directly based on the constraint OID, first fetch its type OID and perform the ownership on it. This is broken since 7eca575, which has split the handling of comments for table constraints and domain constraints, so back-patch down to 9.5.

Previously, in postgresPlanForeignModify, we planned an UPDATE operation on a foreign table so that we transmit only columns that were explicitly targets of the UPDATE, so as to avoid unnecessary data transmission, but if there were BEFORE ROW UPDATE triggers on the foreign table, those triggers might change values for non-target columns, in which case we would miss sending changed values for those columns.

Commit aa09cd242 modified estimate_path_cost_size() so that it reuses cached costs of a basic foreign path for a given foreign-base/join relation when costing pre-sorted foreign paths for that relation, but it incorrectly re-computed retrieved_rows, an estimated number of rows fetched from the remote side, which is needed for costing both the basic and pre-sorted foreign paths. To fix, handle retrieved_rows the same way as the cached costs: store in that relation's fpinfo the retrieved_rows estimate computed for costing the basic foreign path, and reuse it when costing the pre-sorted foreign paths. Also, reuse the rows/width estimates stored in that relation's fpinfo when costing the pre-sorted foreign paths, to make the code consistent. In commit ffab494a4, to extend the costing mentioned above to the foreign-grouping case, I made a change to add_foreign_grouping_paths() to store in a given foreign-grouped relation's RelOptInfo the rows estimate for that relation for reuse, but this patch makes that change unnecessary since we already store the row estimate in that relation's fpinfo, which this patch reuses when costing a foreign path for that relation with the sortClause ordering; remove that change. In passing, fix thinko in commit 7012b132d: in estimate_path_cost_size(), the width estimate for a given foreign-grouped relation to be stored in that relation's fpinfo was reset incorrectly when costing a basic foreign path for that relation with local stats. Apply the patch to HEAD only to avoid destabilizing existing plan choices.

Vignesh found this bug in the check function for default_table_access_method's check hook, but that was just copied from older GUCs. Investigation by Michael and me then found the bug in further places. When not connected to a database (e.g. in a walsender connection), we cannot perform (most) GUC checks that need database access. Even when only shared tables are needed, unless they're nailed (c.f. RelationCacheInitializePhase2()), they cannot be accessed without pg_class etc. being present.

But it got this slightly wrong when the field is just a string literal: it failed to escape the contents of the string. That typically resulted in syntax errors if the string contained any double quotes or backslashes. jsonb_to_record() handles such cases correctly, but I added corresponding test cases for it too, to prevent future backsliding. Improve the documentation, as it provided only a very hand-wavy description of the conversion rules used by these functions. Per bug report from Robert Vollmert. Back-patch to v10 where the error was introduced (by commit cf35346e8). Note that PG 9.4 - 9.6 also get this case wrong, but differently so: they feed the de-escaped contents of the string literal to json[b]_in. That behavior is less obviously wrong, so possibly it's being depended on in the field, so I won't risk trying to make the older branches behave like the newer ones.

ATExecAlterColumnType failed to consider the possibility that an index that needs to be rebuilt might be a child of a constraint that needs to be rebuilt. We missed this so far because usually a constraint index doesn't have a direct dependency on its table, just on the constraint object. But if there's a WHERE clause, then dependency analysis of the WHERE clause results in direct dependencies on the column(s) mentioned in WHERE. This led to trying to drop and rebuild both the constraint and its underlying index. In v11/HEAD, we successfully drop both the index and the constraint, and then try to rebuild both, and of course the second rebuild hits a duplicate-index-name problem. Before v11, it fails with obscure messages about a missing relation OID, due to trying to drop the index twice. This is essentially the same kind of problem noted in commit 20bef2c31: the possible dependency linkages are broader than what ATExecAlterColumnType was designed for. It was probably OK when written, but it's certainly been broken since the introduction of partial exclusion constraints. Fix by adding an explicit check for whether any of the indexes-to-be-rebuilt belong to any of the constraints-to-be-rebuilt, and ignoring any that do. In passing, fix a latent bug introduced by commit 8b08f7d48: in get_constraint_index() we must "continue" not "break" when rejecting a relation of a wrong relkind. This is harmless today because we don't expect that code path to be taken anyway; but if there ever were any relations to be ignored, the existing coding would have an extremely undesirable dependency on the order of pg_depend entries. Also adjust a couple of obsolete comments. Per bug #15835 from Yaroslav Schekin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Given a query in which multiple JOIN nodes used the same alias (which'd necessarily be in different sub-SELECTs), ruleutils.c would assign the JOIN nodes distinct aliases for clarity ... but then it forgot to print the modified aliases when dumping the JOIN nodes themselves.

If an EquivalenceClass member expression includes variables from multiple appendrels, then instead of producing one substituted expression per child relation as intended, we'd create additional child expressions for combinations of children of different appendrels. This happened because the child expressions generated while considering the first appendrel were taken as sources during substitution of the second appendrel, and so on. The extra expressions are useless, and are harmless unless there are too many of them --- but if you have several appendrels with a thousand or so members each, it gets bad fast. To fix, consider only original (non-em_is_child) EC members as candidates to be expanded. This requires the ability to substitute directly from a top parent relation's Vars to those of an indirect descendant relation, but we already have that in adjust_appendrel_attrs_multilevel(). Per bug #15847 from Feike Steenbergen. This is a longstanding misbehavior, but it's only worth worrying about when there are more appendrel children than we've historically considered wise to use. So I'm not going to take the risk of back-patching this.

Unfortunately, our code for choosing a timezone in initdb has an arbitrary preference for names earlier in the alphabet, and so it would choose the spelling "UCT" over "UTC" when the system is running on a UTC zone. Commit 23bd3cec6 was backpatched in order to address this issue, but that code helps only when /etc/localtime exists as a symlink, and does nothing to help on systems where /etc/localtime is a copy of a zone file (as is the standard setup on FreeBSD and probably some other platforms too) or when /etc/localtime is simply absent (giving UTC as the default). Accordingly, add a preference for the spelling "UTC", such that if multiple zone names have equally good content matches, we prefer that name before applying the existing arbitrary rules. Also add a slightly lower preference for "Etc/UTC"; lower because that preserves the previous behaviour of choosing the shorter name, but letting us still choose "Etc/UTC" over "Etc/UCT" when both exist but "UTC" does not (not common, but I've seen it happen). Backpatch all the way, because the tzdb change that sparked this issue is in those branches too. https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/e3846a00c2f87402dcedf7f07950ab2d89cf5827 Tomáš Vondra pushed: - Rework the pg_statistic_ext catalog. Since extended statistic got introduced in PostgreSQL 10, there was a single catalog pg_statistic_ext storing both the definitions and built statistic. That's however problematic when a user is supposed to have access only to the definitions, but not to user data. Consider for example pg_dump on a database with RLS enabled - if the pg_statistic_ext catalog respects RLS (which it should, if it contains user data), pg_dump would not see any records and the result would not define any extended statistics. That would be a surprising behavior. Until now this was not a pressing issue, because the existing types of extended statistic (functional dependencies and ndistinct coefficients) do not include any user data directly. This changed with introduction of MCV lists, which do include most common combinations of values. The easiest way to fix this is to split the pg_statistic_ext catalog into two - one for definitions, one for the built statistic values. The new catalog is called pg_statistic_ext_data, and we're maintaining a 1:1 relationship with the old catalog - either there are matching records in both catalogs, or neither of them. Bumped CATVERSION due to changing system catalog definitions.

Regular per-column statistics are stored in pg_statistics catalog, which is however rather difficult to read, so we also have pg_stats view with a human-reablable version of the data. For extended statistic the catalog was fairly easy to read, so we did not have such human-readable view so far. Commit 9b6babfa2d however did split the catalog into two, which makes querying harder. Furthermore, we want to show the multi-column MCV list in a way similar to per-column stats (and not as a bytea value). This commit introduces pg_stats_ext view, joining the two catalogs and massaging the data to produce human-readable output similar to pg_stats. It also considers RLS and access privileges - the data is shown only when the user has access to all columns the extended statistic is defined on. Bumped CATVERSION due to adding new system view.

The GRANT in system_views allowed SELECT privileges on various columns in the pg_statistic_ext catalog, but tableoid was not included in the list. That made pg_dump fail because it's accessing this column when building the list of extended statistics to dump.
