2024-09-11common/jsonapi: support libpq as a clientPeter Eisentraut
Based on a patch by Michael Paquier. For libpq, use PQExpBuffer instead of StringInfo. This requires us to track allocation failures so that we can return JSON_OUT_OF_MEMORY as needed rather than exit()ing.

2024-09-02Remove support for OpenSSL older than 1.1.0Daniel Gustafsson
OpenSSL 1.0.2 has been EOL from the upstream OpenSSL project for some time, and is no longer the default OpenSSL version with any vendor which package PostgreSQL. By retiring support for OpenSSL 1.0.2 we can remove a lot of no longer required complexity for managing state within libcrypto which is now handled by OpenSSL.

libpq must not use palloc/pfree. It's not allowed to exit on allocation failure, and mixing the frontend pfree with malloc is architecturally unsound. Remove fe_memutils from the shlib build entirely, to keep devs from accidentally depending on it in the future.

2024-03-07Unicode case mapping tables and functions.Jeff Davis
Implements Unicode simple case mapping, in which all code points map to exactly one other code point unconditionally. These tables are generated from UnicodeData.txt, which is already being used by other infrastructure in src/common/unicode. The tables are checked into the source tree, so they only need to be regenerated when we update the Unicode version. In preparation for the builtin collation provider, and possibly useful for other callers.

2023-12-20Add a new WAL summarizer process.Robert Haas
When active, this process writes WAL summary files to $PGDATA/pg_wal/summaries. Each summary file contains information for a certain range of LSNs on a certain TLI. For each relation, it stores a "limit block" which is 0 if a relation is created or destroyed within a certain range of WAL records, or otherwise the shortest length to which the relation was truncated during that range of WAL records, or otherwise InvalidBlockNumber. In addition, it stores a list of blocks which have been modified during that range of WAL records, but excluding blocks which were removed by truncation after they were modified and never subsequently modified again. In other words, it tells us which blocks need to copied in case of an incremental backup covering that range of WAL records. But this doesn't yet add the capability to actually perform an incremental backup; the next patch will do that. A new parameter summarize_wal enables or disables this new background process. The background process also automatically deletes summary files that are older than wal_summarize_keep_time, if that parameter has a non-zero value and the summarizer is configured to run. Patch by me, with some design help from Dilip Kumar and Andres Freund. Reviewed by Matthias van de Meent, Dilip Kumar, Jakub Wartak, Peter Eisentraut, and Álvaro Herrera.

2023-12-20Remove MSVC scriptsMichael Paquier
This commit removes all the scripts located in src/tools/msvc/ to build PostgreSQL with Visual Studio on Windows, meson becoming the recommended way to achieve that. The scripts held some information that is still relevant with meson, information kept and moved to better locations. Comments that referred directly to the scripts are removed. All the documentation still relevant that was in install-windows.sgml has been moved to installation.sgml under a new subsection for Visual. All the content specific to the scripts is removed. Some adjustments for the documentation are planned in a follow-up set of changes.

2023-10-07Restore proper linkage of pg_char_to_encoding() and friends.Tom Lane
Back in the 8.3 era we discovered that it was problematic if libpq.so had encoding ID assignments different from the backend, which is possible because on some platforms libpq.so might be of a different major version from the calling programs. psql should use libpq's assignments, but initdb has to use the backend's, else it will put wrong values into pg_database. The solution devised in commit 8468146b0 relied on giving initdb its own copy of encnames.c rather than relying on the functions exported by libpq. Later, that metamorphosed into ensuring that libpgcommon got linked before libpq -- which made things OK for initdb but broke psql. We didn't notice for lack of any changes in enum pg_enc since then. Commit 06843df4a reversed that, fixing the latent bug in psql but adding one in initdb. The meson build infrastructure is also not being sufficiently careful about link order, and trying to make it so would be equally fragile. Hence, let's use a new scheme based on giving the libpq-exported symbols different real names than the same functions exported from libpgcommon.a or libpgcommon_srv.a. (We could distinguish those two cases as well, but there seems no need to.) libpq gets the official names to avoid an ABI break for libpq clients, while the other cases use #define's to make the real names "xxx_private" rather than "xxx". By controlling where the #define's are applied, we can force any particular client program to use one set or the other of the encnames.c functions. We cannot back-patch this, since it'd be an ABI break for backend loadable modules, but there seems little need to. We're just trying to ensure that the world is safe for hypothetical future additions to enum pg_enc. In passing this should fix "duplicate symbol" linker warnings that we've been seeing on AIX buildfarm members since commit 06843df4a. It's not very clear why that linker is complaining now, when there were strictly *more* duplicates visible before, but in any case this should remove the reason for complaint. Patch by me; thanks to Andres Freund for review. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2385119.1696354473@sss.pgh.pa.us
2023-09-18Make binaryheap available to frontend code.Nathan Bossart
There are a couple of places in frontend code that could make use of this simple binary heap implementation. This commit makes binaryheap usable in frontend code, much like commit 26aaf97b68 did for StringInfo. Like StringInfo, the header file is left in lib/ to reduce the likelihood of unnecessary breakage. The frontend version of binaryheap exposes a void *-based API since frontend code does not have access to the Datum definitions. This seemed like a better approach than switching all existing uses to void * or making the Datum definitions available to frontend code.

2023-07-05Generate automatically code and documentation related to wait eventsMichael Paquier
The documentation and the code is generated automatically from a new file called wait_event_names.txt, formatted in sections dedicated to each wait event class (Timeout, Lock, IO, etc.) with three tab-separated fields: - C symbol in enums - Format in the system views - Description in the docs Using this approach has several advantages, as we have proved to be rather bad in maintaining this area of the tree across the years: - The order of each item in the documentation and the code, which should be alphabetical, has become incorrect multiple times, and the script generating the code and documentation has a few rules to enforce that, making the maintenance a no-brainer. - Some wait events were added to the code, but not documented, so this cannot be missed now. - The order of the tables for each wait event class is enforced in the documentation (the input .txt file does so as well for clarity, though this is not mandatory). - Less code, shaving 1.2k lines from the tree, with 1/3 of the savings coming from the code, the rest from the documentation. The wait event types "Lock" and "LWLock" still have their own code path for their code, hence only the documentation is created for them. These classes are listed with a special marker called WAIT_EVENT_DOCONLY in the input file. Adding a new wait event now requires only an update of wait_event_names.txt, with "Lock" and "LWLock" treated as exceptions. This commit has been tested with configure/Makefile, the CI and VPATH build. clean, distclean and maintainer-clean were working fine.

2023-02-05Revert refactoring of restore command code to shell_restore.cMichael Paquier
This reverts commits 24c35ec and 57169ad. PreRestoreCommand() and PostRestoreCommand() need to be put closer to the system() call calling a restore_command, as they enable in_restore_command for the startup process which would in turn trigger an immediate proc_exit() in the SIGTERM handler. Perhaps we could get rid of this behavior entirely, but 24c35ec has made the window where the flag is enabled much larger than it was, and any Postgres-like actions (palloc, etc.) taken by code paths while the flag is enabled could lead to more severe issues in the shutdown processing. Note that curculio has showed that there are much more problems in this area, unrelated to this change, actually, hence the issues related to that had better be addressed first. Keeping the code of HEAD in line with the stable branches should make that a bit easier. Per discussion with Andres Freund and Nathan Bossart.

2023-01-18Refactor code for restoring files via shell commandsMichael Paquier
Presently, restore_command uses a different code path than archive_cleanup_command and recovery_end_command. These code paths are similar and can be easily combined, as long as it is possible to identify if a command should: - Issue a FATAL on signal. - Exit immediately on SIGTERM. While on it, this removes src/common/archive.c and its associated header. Since the introduction of c96de2c, BuildRestoreCommand() has become a simple wrapper of replace_percent_placeholders() able to call make_native_path(). This simplifies shell_restore.c as long as RestoreArchivedFile() includes a call to make_native_path().

2023-01-11Common function for percent placeholder replacementPeter Eisentraut
There are a number of places where a shell command is constructed with percent-placeholders (like %x). It's cumbersome to have to open-code this several times. This factors out this logic into a separate function. This also allows us to ensure consistency for and document some subtle behaviors, such as what to do with unrecognized placeholders. The unified handling is now that incorrect and unknown placeholders are an error, where previously in most cases they were skipped or ignored. This affects the following settings: - archive_cleanup_command - archive_command - recovery_end_command - restore_command - ssl_passphrase_command The following settings are part of this refactoring but already had stricter error handling and should be unchanged in their behavior: - basebackup_to_shell.command Reviewed-by: Nathan Bossart <nathandbossart@gmail.com> Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/5238bbed-0b01-83a6-d4b2-7eb0562a054e%40enterprisedb.com

2022-12-07meson: Add basic PGXS compatibilityAndres Freund
Generate a Makefile.global that's complete enough for PGXS to work for some extensions. It is likely that this compatibility layer will not suffice for every extension and not all platforms - we can expand it over time. This allows extensions to use a single buildsystem across all the supported postgres versions. Once all supported PG versions support meson, we can remove the compatibility layer.

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.

2022-09-22meson: 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.
