The new name more accurately reflects the effects of this flag on a requested checkpoint.

2 daysFix the handling of two GUCs during upgrade.Amit Kapila
Previously, the check_hook functions for max_slot_wal_keep_size and idle_replication_slot_timeout would incorrectly raise an ERROR for values set in postgresql.conf during upgrade, even though those values were not actively used in the upgrade process. To prevent logical slot invalidation during upgrade, we used to set special values for these GUCs. Now, instead of relying on those values, we directly prevent WAL removal and logical slot invalidation caused by max_slot_wal_keep_size and idle_replication_slot_timeout. Note: PostgreSQL 17 does not include the idle_replication_slot_timeout GUC, so related changes were not backported.

3 daysChange unit of idle_replication_slot_timeout to seconds.Fujii Masao
Previously, the idle_replication_slot_timeout parameter used minutes as its unit, based on the assumption that values would typically exceed one minute in production environments. However, this caused unexpected behavior: specifying a value below 30 seconds would round down to 0, effectively disabling the timeout. This could be surprising to users. To allow finer-grained control and avoid such confusion, this commit changes the unit of idle_replication_slot_timeout to seconds. Larger values can still be specified easily using standard time suffixes, for example, '24h' for 24 hours. Back-patch to v18 where idle_replication_slot_timeout was added.

4 daysHide ICU C++ APIs from pg_locale.hJohn Naylor
The cpluspluscheck script wraps our headers in `extern "C"`. This disables name mangling, which is necessary for the C++ templates in system ICU headers. cpluspluscheck thus fails when the build is configured with ICU (the default). CI worked around this by disabling ICU, but let's make it work so others can run the script. We can specify we only want the C APIs by defining U_SHOW_CPLUSPLUS_API to be 0 in pg_locale.h. Extensions that want the C++ APIs can include ICU headers separately before including PostgreSQL headers.

5 daysaio: Combine io_uring memory mappings, if supportedAndres Freund
By default io_uring creates a shared memory mapping for each io_uring instance, leading to a large number of memory mappings. Unfortunately a large number of memory mappings slows things down, backend exit is particularly affected. To address that, newer kernels (6.5) support using user-provided memory for the memory. By putting the relevant memory into shared memory we don't need any additional mappings. On a system with a new enough kernel and liburing, there is no discernible overhead when doing a pgbench -S -C anymore.

5 daysConsider explicit incremental sort for Append and MergeAppendRichard Guo
For an ordered Append or MergeAppend, we need to inject an explicit sort into any subpath that is not already well enough ordered. Currently, only explicit full sorts are considered; incremental sorts are not yet taken into account. In this patch, for subpaths of an ordered Append or MergeAppend, we choose to use explicit incremental sort if it is enabled and there are presorted keys. The rationale is based on the assumption that incremental sort is always faster than full sort when there are presorted keys, a premise that has been applied in various parts of the code. In addition, the current cost model tends to favor incremental sort as being cheaper than full sort in the presence of presorted keys, making it reasonable not to consider full sort in such cases. No backpatch as this could result in plan changes.

6 daysIntegrate FullTransactionIds deeper into two-phase codeMichael Paquier
This refactoring is a follow-up of the work done in 5a1dfde8334b, that has switched 2PC file names to use FullTransactionIds when written on disk. This will help with the integration of a follow-up solution related to the handling of two-phase files during recovery, to address older defects while reading these from disk after a crash. This change is useful in itself as it reduces the need to build the file names from epoch numbers and TransactionIds, because we can use directly FullTransactionIds from which the 2PC file names are guessed. So this avoids a lot of back-and-forth between the FullTransactionIds retrieved from the file names and how these are passed around in the internal 2PC logic. Note that the core of the change is the use of a FullTransactionId instead of a TransactionId in GlobalTransactionData, that tracks 2PC file information in shared memory. The change in TwoPhaseCallback makes this commit unfit for stable branches. Noah has contributed a good chunk of this patch. I have spent some time on it as well while working on the issues with two-phase state files and recovery.

10 daysSpeed up truncation of temporary relations.Fujii Masao
Previously, truncating a temporary relation required scanning the entire local buffer pool once per relation fork to invalidate buffers. This could be slow, especially with a large local buffers, as the scan was repeated multiple times. A similar issue with regular tables (shared buffers) was addressed in commit 6d05086c0a7 by scanning the buffer pool only once for all forks. This commit applies the same optimization to temporary relations, improving truncation performance.

10 daysBreak out xxx2yyy_opt_overflow APIs for more datetime conversions.Tom Lane
Previous commits invented timestamp2timestamptz_opt_overflow, date2timestamp_opt_overflow, and date2timestamptz_opt_overflow functions to perform non-error-throwing conversions between datetime types. This patch completes the set by adding timestamp2date_opt_overflow, timestamptz2date_opt_overflow, and timestamptz2timestamp_opt_overflow. In addition, adjust timestamp2timestamptz_opt_overflow so that it doesn't throw error if timestamp2tm fails, but treats that as an overflow case. The situation probably can't arise except with an invalid timestamp value, and I can't think of a way that that would happen except data corruption. However, it's pretty silly to have a function whose entire reason for existence is to not throw errors for out-of-range inputs nonetheless throw an error for out-of-range input. The new APIs are not used in this patch, but will be needed in upcoming btree_gin changes.

11 daysAdd GetNamedDSA() and GetNamedDSHash().Nathan Bossart
Presently, the dynamic shared memory (DSM) registry only provides GetNamedDSMSegment(), which allocates a fixed-size segment. To use the DSM registry for more sophisticated things like dynamic shared memory areas (DSAs) or a hash table backed by a DSA (dshash), users need to create a DSM segment that stores various handles and LWLock tranche IDs and to write fairly complicated initialization code. Furthermore, there is likely little variation in this initialization code between libraries. This commit introduces functions that simplify allocating a DSA or dshash within the DSM registry. These functions are very similar to GetNamedDSMSegment(). Notable differences include the lack of an initialization callback parameter and the prohibition of calling the functions more than once for a given entry in each backend (which should be trivially avoidable in most circumstances). While at it, this commit bumps the maximum DSM registry entry name length from 63 bytes to 127 bytes. Also note that even though one could presumably detach/destroy the DSAs and dshashes created in the registry, such use-cases are not yet well-supported, if for no other reason than the associated DSM registry entries cannot be removed. Adding such support is left as a future exercise. The test_dsm_registry test module contains tests for the new functions and also serves as a complete usage example.

11 daysmeson: Increase minimum version to 0.57.2Peter Eisentraut
The previous minimum was to maintain support for Python 3.5, but we now require Python 3.6 anyway (commit 45363fca637), so that reason is obsolete. A small raise to Meson 0.57 allows getting rid of a fair amount of version conditionals and silences some future-deprecated warnings. With the version bump, the following deprecation warnings appeared and are fixed: WARNING: Project targets '>=0.57' but uses feature deprecated since '0.55.0': ExternalProgram.path. use ExternalProgram.full_path() instead WARNING: Project targets '>=0.57' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.build_root. use meson.project_build_root() or meson.global_build_root() instead. It turns out that meson 0.57.0 and 0.57.1 are buggy for our use, so the minimum is actually set to 0.57.2.

12 daysShow sizes of FETCH queries as constants in pg_stat_statementsMichael Paquier
Prior to this patch, every FETCH call would generate a unique queryId with a different size specified. Depending on the workloads, this could lead to a significant bloat in pg_stat_statements, as repeatedly calling a specific cursor would result in a new queryId each time. For example, FETCH 1 c1; and FETCH 2 c1; would produce different queryIds. This patch improves the situation by normalizing the fetch size, so as semantically similar statements generate the same queryId. As a result, statements like the below, which differ syntactically but have the same effect, will now share a single queryId: FETCH FROM c1 FETCH NEXT c1 FETCH 1 c1 In order to do a normalization based on the keyword used in FETCH, FetchStmt is tweaked with a new FetchDirectionKeywords. This matters for "howMany", which could be set to a negative value depending on the direction, and we want to normalize the queries with enough information about the direction keywords provided, including RELATIVE, ABSOLUTE or all the ALL variants.

12 daysSilence valgrind about pg_numa_touch_mem_if_requiredTomas Vondra
When querying NUMA status of pages in shared memory, we need to touch the memory first to get valid results. This may trigger valgrind reports, because some of the memory (e.g. unpinned buffers) may be marked as noaccess. Solved by adding a valgrind suppresion. An alternative would be to adjust the access/noaccess status before touching the memory, but that seems far too invasive. It would require all those places to have detailed knowledge of what the shared memory stores. The pg_numa_touch_mem_if_required() macro is replaced with a function. Macros are invisible to suppressions, so it'd have to suppress reports for the caller - e.g. pg_get_shmem_allocations_numa(). So we'd suppress reports for the whole function, and that seems to heavy-handed. It might easily hide other valid issues.

13 daysRationalize handling of VacuumParamsMichael Paquier
This commit refactors the vacuum routines that rely on VacuumParams, adding const markers where necessary to force a new policy in the code. This structure should not use a pointer as it may be used across multiple relations, and its contents should never be updated. vacuum_rel() stands as an exception as it touches the "index_cleanup" and "truncate" options. VacuumParams has been introduced in 0d831389749a, and 661643dedad9 has fixed a bug impacting VACUUM operating on multiple relations. The changes done in tableam.h break ABI compatibility, so this commit can only happen on HEAD.

14 daysFix some new issues with planning of PlaceHolderVars.Tom Lane
In the wake of commit a16ef313f, we need to deal with more cases involving PlaceHolderVars in NestLoopParams than we did before. For one thing, a16ef313f was incorrect to suppose that we could rely on the required-outer relids of the lefthand path to decide placement of nestloop-parameter PHVs. As Richard Guo argued at the time, we must look at the required-outer relids of the join path itself. For another, we have to apply replace_nestloop_params() to such a PHV's expression, in case it contains references to values that will be supplied from NestLoopParams of higher-level nestloops. For another, we need to be more careful about the phnullingrels of the PHV than we were being. identify_current_nestloop_params only bothered to ensure that the phnullingrels didn't contain "too many" relids, but now it has to be exact, because setrefs.c will apply both NRM_SUBSET and NRM_SUPERSET checks in different places. We can compute the correct relids by determining the set of outer joins that should be able to null the PHV and then subtracting whatever's been applied at or below this join. Do the same for plain Vars, too. (This should make it possible to use NRM_EQUAL to process nestloop params in setrefs.c, but I won't risk making such a change in v18 now.) Lastly, if a nestloop parameter PHV was pulled up out of a subquery and it contains a subquery that was originally pushed down from this query level, then that will still be represented as a SubLink, because SS_process_sublinks won't recurse into outer PHVs, so it didn't get transformed during expression preprocessing in the subquery. We can substitute the version of the PHV's expression appearing in its PlaceHolderInfo to ensure that that preprocessing has happened. (Seems like this processing sequence could stand to be redesigned, but again, late in v18 development is not the time for that.) It's not very clear to me why the old have_dangerous_phv join-order restriction prevented us from seeing the last three of these problems. But given the lack of field complaints, it must have done so.

2025-06-25Restrict virtual columns to use built-in functions and typesPeter Eisentraut
Just like selecting from a view is exploitable (CVE-2024-7348), selecting from a table with virtual generated columns is exploitable. Users who are concerned about this can avoid selecting from views, but telling them to avoid selecting from tables is less practical. To address this, this changes it so that generation expressions for virtual generated columns are restricted to using built-in functions and types, and the columns are restricted to having a built-in type. We assume that built-in functions and types cannot be exploited for this purpose. In the future, this could be expanded by some new mechanism to declare other functions and types as safe or trusted for this purpose, but that is to be designed. (An alternative approach might have been to expand the restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind GUC to handle this, like the fix for CVE-2024-7348. But that is kind of an ugly approach. That fix had to fit in the constraints of fixing an ancient vulnerability in all branches. Since virtual generated columns are new, we're free from the constraints of the past, and we can and should use cleaner options.)

2025-06-24Make query jumbling also squash PARAM_EXTERN paramsÁlvaro Herrera
Commit 62d712ecfd94 made query jumbling squash lists of Consts as a single element, but there's no reason not to treat PARAM_EXTERN parameters the same. For these purposes, these values are indeed constants for any particular execution of a query. In particular, this should make list squashing more useful for applications using extended query protocol, which would use parameters extensively. A complication arises: if a query has both external parameters and squashable lists, then the parameter number used as placeholder for the squashed list might be inconsistent with regards to the parameter numbers used by the query literal. To reduce the surprise factor, all parameters are renumbered starting from 1 in that case.

2025-06-20Remove planner's have_dangerous_phv() join-order restriction.Tom Lane
Commit 85e5e222b, which added (a forerunner of) this logic, argued that Adding the necessary complexity to make this work doesn't seem like it would be repaid in significantly better plans, because in cases where such a PHV exists, there is probably a corresponding join order constraint that would allow a good plan to be found without using the star-schema exception. The flaw in this claim is that there may be other join-order restrictions that prevent us from finding a join order that doesn't involve a "dangerous" PHV. In particular we now recognize that small join_collapse_limit or from_collapse_limit could prevent it. Therefore, let's bite the bullet and make the case work. We don't have to extend the executor's support for nestloop parameters as I thought at the time, because we can instead push the evaluation of the placeholder's expression into the left-hand input of the NestLoop node. So there's not really a lot of downside to this solution, and giving the planner more join-order flexibility should have value beyond just avoiding failure. Having said that, there surely is a nonzero risk of introducing new bugs. Since this failure mode escaped detection for ten years, such cases don't seem common enough to justify a lot of risk. Therefore, let's put this fix into master but leave the back branches alone (for now anyway).

2025-06-17Fix re-distributing previously distributed invalidation messages during ↵Masahiko Sawada
logical decoding. Commit 4909b38af0 introduced logic to distribute invalidation messages from catalog-modifying transactions to all concurrent in-progress transactions. However, since each transaction distributes not only its original invalidation messages but also previously distributed messages to other transactions, this leads to an exponential increase in allocation request size for invalidation messages, ultimately causing memory allocation failure. This commit fixes this issue by tracking distributed invalidation messages separately per decoded transaction and not redistributing these messages to other in-progress transactions. The maximum size of distributed invalidation messages that one transaction can store is limited to MAX_DISTR_INVAL_MSG_PER_TXN (8MB). Once the size of the distributed invalidation messages exceeds this threshold, we invalidate all caches in locations where distributed invalidation messages need to be executed. Back-patch to all supported versions where we introduced the fix by commit 4909b38af0. Note that this commit adds two new fields to ReorderBufferTXN to store the distributed transactions. This change breaks ABI compatibility in back branches, affecting third-party extensions that depend on the size of the ReorderBufferTXN struct, though this scenario seems unlikely. Additionally, it adds a new flag to the txn_flags field of ReorderBufferTXN to indicate distributed invalidation message overflow. This should not affect existing implementations, as it is unlikely that third-party extensions use unused bits in the txn_flags field.

2025-06-15Sync typedefs.list with the buildfarm.Tom Lane
Our maintenance of typedefs.list has been a little haphazard (and apparently we can't alphabetize worth a darn). Replace the file with the authoritative list from our buildfarm, and run pgindent using that. I also updated the additions/exclusions lists in pgindent where necessary to keep pgindent from messing things up significantly. Notably, now that regex_t and some related names are macros not real typedefs, we have to whitelist them explicitly. The exclusions list has also drifted noticeably, presumably due to changes of system headers on the buildfarm animals that contribute to the list. Unlike in prior years, I've not manually added typedef names that are missing from the buildfarm's list because they are not used to declare any variables or fields. So there are a few places where the typedef declaration itself is formatted worse than before, e.g. typedef enum IoMethod. I could preserve the names that were manually added to the list previously, but I'd really prefer to find a less manual way of dealing with these cases. A quick grep finds about 75 such symbols, most of which have never gotten any special treatment. Per discussion among pgsql-release, doing this now seems appropriate even though we're still a week or two away from making the v18 branch.
2025-06-14Keep WAL segments by slot's last saved restart LSNAlexander Korotkov
The patch fixes the issue with the unexpected removal of old WAL segments after checkpoint, followed by an immediate restart. The issue occurs when a slot is advanced after the start of the checkpoint and before old WAL segments are removed at the end of the checkpoint. The patch introduces a new in-memory state for slots: last_saved_restart_lsn, which is used to calculate the oldest LSN for removing WAL segments. This state is updated every time with the current restart_lsn at the moment when the slot is saved to disk. This fix changes the shared memory layout. It's applied to HEAD only because we don't have to preserve ABI compatibility during the beta stage. Another fix that doesn't affect the ABI is committed to back branches.

2025-06-12Fix squashing algorithm for query textsÁlvaro Herrera
The algorithm to squash lists of constants added by commit 62d712ecfd94 was a bit too simplistic; we wanted to avoid adding unnecessary complexity, but cases like direct function calls of typecasting functions (and others) were missed, and bogus SQL syntax was being shown in pg_stat_statements normalized query text field. To fix normalization for those cases, we need the parser to transmit information about were each list of constant values starts and ends, so add that to a couple of nodes. Also add a few more test cases to make sure we're doing the right thing. The patch initially submitted by Sami added a new private struct in gram.y to carry the start/end information for A_Expr, but I (Álvaro) decided that a better fix was to remove the parser indirection via the in_expr production, and instead create separate components in the a_expr rule. I'm surprised that this works and doesn't require more changes, but I assume (without checking) that the grammar used to be more complex and got simplified at some point. Bump catversion.

2025-06-12Revert support for improved tracking of nested queriesMichael Paquier
This commit reverts the two following commits: - 499edb09741b, track more precisely query locations for nested statements. - 06450c7b8c70, a follow-up fix of 499edb09741b with query locations. The test introduced in this commit is not reverted. This is proving useful to track a problem that only pgaudit was able to detect. These prove to have issues with the tracking of SELECT statements, when these use multiple parenthesis which is something supported by the grammar. Incorrect location and lengths are causing pg_stat_statements to become confused, failing its job in query normalization with potential out-of-bound writes because the location and the length may not match with what can be handled. A lot of the query patterns discussed when this issue was reported have no test coverage in the main regression test suite, or the recovery test 027_stream_regress.pl would have caught the problems as pg_stat_statements is loaded by the node running the regression tests. A first step would be to improve the test coverage to stress more the query normalization logic. A different portion of this work was done in 45e0ba30fc40, with the addition of tests for nested queries. These can be left in the tree. They are useful to track the way inner queries are currently tracked by PGSS with non-top-level entries, and will be useful when reconsidering in the future the work reverted here.
