5 hoursChange pgstat_report_vacuum() to use RelationHEADmasterMichael Paquier
This change makes pgstat_report_vacuum() more consistent with pgstat_report_analyze(), that also uses a Relation. This enforces a policy that callers of this routine should open and lock the relation whose statistics are updated before calling this routine. We will unlikely have a lot of callers of this routine in the tree, but it seems like a good idea to imply this requirement in the long run.

8 hoursAvoid global LC_CTYPE dependency in pg_locale_icu.c.Jeff Davis
ICU still depends on libc for compatibility with certain historical behavior for single-byte encodings. Make the dependency explicit by holding a locale_t object when required. We should consider a better solution in the future, such as decoding the text to UTF-32 and using u_tolower(). That would be a behavior change and require additional infrastructure though; so for now, just avoid the global LC_CTYPE dependency.

8 hoursdowncase_identifier(): use method table from locale provider.Jeff Davis
Previously, libc's tolower() was always used for lowercasing identifiers, regardless of the database locale (though only characters beyond 127 in single-byte encodings were affected). Refactor to allow each provider to supply its own implementation of identifier downcasing. For historical compatibility, when using a single-byte encoding, ICU still relies on tolower(). One minor behavior change is that, before the database default locale is initialized, it uses ASCII semantics to downcase the identifiers. Previously, it would use the postmaster's LC_CTYPE setting from the environment. While that could have some effect during GUC processing, for example, it would have been fragile to rely on the environment setting anyway. (Also, it only matters when the encoding is single-byte.)

23 hoursSeparate out bytea sort support from varlena.cJohn Naylor
In the wake of commit b45242fd3, bytea_sortsupport() still called out to varstr_sortsupport(). Treating bytea as a kind of text/varchar required varstr_sortsupport() to allow for the possibility of NUL bytes, but only for C collation. This was confusing. For better separation of concerns, create an independent sortsupport implementation in bytea.c. The heuristics for bytea_abbrev_abort() remain the same as for varstr_abbrev_abort(). It's possible that the bytea case warrants different treatment, but that is left for future investigation. In passing, adjust some strange looking comparisons in varstr_abbrev_abort().

2 daysAdd retry logic to pg_sync_replication_slots().Amit Kapila
Previously, pg_sync_replication_slots() would finish without synchronizing slots that didn't meet requirements, rather than failing outright. This could leave some failover slots unsynchronized if required catalog rows or WAL segments were missing or at risk of removal, while the standby continued removing needed data. To address this, the function now waits for the primary slot to advance to a position where all required data is available on the standby before completing synchronization. It retries cyclically until all failover slots that existed on the primary at the start of the call are synchronized. Slots created after the function begins are not included. If the standby is promoted during this wait, the function exits gracefully and the temporary slots will be removed.

2 daysAllow cumulative statistics to read/write auxiliary data from/to diskMichael Paquier
Cumulative stats kinds gain the capability to write additional per-entry data when flushing the stats at shutdown, and read this data when loading back the stats at startup. This can be fit for example in the case of variable-length data (like normalized query strings), so as it becomes possible to link the shared memory stats entries to data that is stored in a different area, like a DSA segment. Three new optional callbacks are added to PgStat_KindInfo, available to variable-numbered stats kinds: * to_serialized_data: writes auxiliary data for an entry. * from_serialized_data: reads auxiliary data for an entry. * finish: performs actions after read/write/discard operations. This is invoked after processing all the entries of a kind, allowing extensions to close file handles and clean up resources. Stats kinds have the option to store this data in the existing pgstats file, but can as well store it in one or more additional files whose names can be built upon the entry keys. The new serialized callbacks are called once an entry key is read or written from the main stats file. A file descriptor to the main pgstats file is available in the arguments of the callbacks.

2 daysUpdate typedefs.list to match what the buildfarm currently reports.Tom Lane
The current list from the buildfarm includes quite a few typedef names that it used to miss. The reason is a bit obscure, but it seems likely to have something to do with our recent increased use of palloc_object and palloc_array. In any case, this makes the relevant struct declarations be much more nicely formatted, so I'll take it. Install the current list and re-run pgindent to update affected code. Syncing with the current list also removes some obsolete typedef names and fixes some alphabetization errors. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1681301.1765742268@sss.pgh.pa.us
3 daysFix jsonb_object_agg crash after eliminating null-valued pairs.Tom Lane
In commit b61aa76e4 I added an assumption in jsonb_object_agg_finalfn that it'd be okay to apply uniqueifyJsonbObject repeatedly to a JsonbValue. I should have studied that code more closely first, because in skip_nulls mode it removed leading nulls by changing the "pairs" array start pointer. This broke the data structure's invariants in two ways: pairs no longer references a repalloc-able chunk, and the distance from pairs to the end of its array is less than parseState->size. So any subsequent addition of more pairs is at high risk of clobbering memory and/or causing repalloc to crash. Unfortunately, adding more pairs is exactly what will happen when the aggregate is being used as a window function. Fix by rewriting uniqueifyJsonbObject to not do that. The prior coding had little to recommend it anyway.

10 daysMicro-optimize datatype conversions in datum_to_jsonb_internal.Tom Lane
The general case for converting to a JSONB numeric value is to run the source datatype's output function and then numeric_in, but we can do substantially better than that for integer and numeric source values. This patch improves the speed of jsonb_agg by 30% for integer input, and nearly 2X for numeric input. Sadly, the obvious idea of using float4_numeric and float8_numeric to speed up those cases doesn't work: they are actually slower than the generic coerce-via-I/O method, and not by a small amount. They might round off differently than this code has historically done, too. Leave that alone pending possible changes in those functions. We can also do better than the existing code for text/varchar/bpchar source data; this optimization is similar to one that already exists in the json_agg() code. That saves 20% or so for such inputs. Also make a couple of other minor improvements, such as not giving JSONTYPE_CAST its own special case outside the switch when it could perfectly well be handled inside, and not using dubious string hacking to detect infinity and NaN results.

10 daysRemove fundamentally-redundant processing in jsonb_agg() et al.Tom Lane
The various variants of jsonb_agg() operate as follows, for each aggregate input value: 1. Build a JsonbValue tree representation of the input value. 2. Flatten the JsonbValue tree into a Jsonb in on-disk format. 3. Iterate through the Jsonb, building a JsonbValue that is part of the aggregate's state stored in aggcontext, but is otherwise identical to what phase 1 built. This is very slightly less silly than it sounds, because phase 1 involves calling non-JSONB code such as datatype output functions, which are likely to leak memory, and we don't want to leak into the aggcontext. Nonetheless, phases 2 and 3 are accomplishing exactly nothing that is useful if we can make phase 1 put the JsonbValue tree where we need it. We could probably do that with a bunch of MemoryContextSwitchTo's, but what seems more robust is to give pushJsonbValue the responsibility of building the JsonbValue tree in a specified non-current memory context. The previous patch created the infrastructure for that, and this patch simply makes the aggregate functions use it and then rips out phases 2 and 3. For me, this makes jsonb_agg() with a text column as input run about 2X faster than before. It's not yet on par with json_agg(), but this removes a whole lot of the difference.

10 daysRevise APIs for pushJsonbValue() and associated routines.Tom Lane
Instead of passing "JsonbParseState **" to pushJsonbValue(), pass a pointer to a JsonbInState, which will contain the parseState stack pointer as well as other useful fields. Also, instead of returning a JsonbValue pointer that is often meaningless/ignored, return the top-level JsonbValue pointer in the "result" field of the JsonbInState. This involves a lot of (mostly mechanical) edits, but I think the results are notationally cleaner and easier to understand. Certainly the business with sometimes capturing the result of pushJsonbValue() and sometimes not was bug-prone and incapable of mechanical verification. In the new arrangement, JsonbInState.result remains null until we've completed a valid sequence of pushes, so that an incorrect sequence will result in a null-pointer dereference, not mistaken use of a partial result. However, this isn't simply an exercise in prettier notation. The real reason for doing it is to provide a mechanism whereby pushJsonbValue() can be told to construct the JsonbValue tree in a context that is not CurrentMemoryContext. That happens when a non-null "outcontext" is specified in the JsonbInState. No callers exercise that option in this patch, but the next patch in the series will make use of it. I tried to improve the comments in this area too.

10 daysHandle constant inputs to corr() and related aggregates more precisely.Tom Lane
The SQL standard says that corr() and friends should return NULL in the mathematically-undefined case where all the inputs in one of the columns have the same value. We were checking that by seeing if the sums Sxx and Syy were zero, but that approach is very vulnerable to roundoff error: if a sum is close to zero but not exactly that, we'd come out with a pretty silly non-NULL result. Instead, directly track whether the inputs are all equal by remembering the common value in each column. Once we detect that a new input is different from before, represent that by storing NaN for the common value. (An objection to this scheme is that if the inputs are all NaN, we will consider that they were not all equal. But under IEEE float arithmetic rules, one NaN is never equal to another, so this behavior is arguably correct. Moreover it matches what we did before in such cases.) Then, leave the sums at their exact value of zero for as long as we haven't detected different input values. This solution requires the aggregate transition state to contain 8 float values not 6, which is not problematic, and it seems to add less than 1% to the aggregates' runtime, which seems acceptable. While we're here, improve corr()'s final function to cope with overflow/underflow in the final calculation, and to clamp its result to [-1, 1] in case of roundoff error. Although this is arguably a bug fix, it requires a catversion bump due to the change in aggregates' initial states, so it can't be back-patched. Patch written by me, but many of the ideas are due to Dean Rasheed, who also did a deal of testing.

12 daysFix some cases of indirectly casting away const.Tom Lane
Newest versions of gcc are able to detect cases where code implicitly casts away const by assigning the result of strchr() or a similar function applied to a "const char *" value to a target variable that's just "char *". This of course creates a hazard of not getting a compiler warning about scribbling on a string one was not supposed to, so fixing up such cases is good. This patch fixes a dozen or so places where we were doing that. Most are trivial additions of "const" to the target variable, since no actually-hazardous change was occurring. There is one place in ecpg.trailer where we were indeed violating the intention of not modifying a string passed in as "const char *". I believe that's harmless not a live bug, but let's fix it by copying the string before modifying it. There is a remaining trouble spot in ecpg/preproc/variable.c, which requires more complex surgery. I've left that out of this commit because I want to study that code a bit more first. We probably will want to back-patch this once compilers that detect this pattern get into wider circulation, but for now I'm just going to apply it to master to see what the buildfarm says.

14 daysDon't rely on pointer arithmetic with Pointer typePeter Eisentraut
The comment for the Pointer type says 'XXX Pointer arithmetic is done with this, so it can't be void * under "true" ANSI compilers.'. This fixes that. Change from Pointer to use char * explicitly where pointer arithmetic is needed. This makes the meaning of the code clearer locally and removes a dependency on the actual definition of the Pointer type. (The definition of the Pointer type is not changed in this commit.)

2025-12-02Show size of DSAs and dshashes in pg_dsm_registry_allocations.Nathan Bossart
Presently, this view reports NULL for the size of DSAs and dshash tables because 1) the current backend might not be attached to them and 2) the registry doesn't save the pointers to the dsa_area or dshash_table in local memory. Also, the view doesn't show partially-initialized entries to avoid ambiguity, since those entries would report a NULL size as well. This commit introduces a function that looks up the size of a DSA given its handle (transiently attaching to the control segment if needed) and teaches pg_dsm_registry_allocations to use it to show the size of successfully-initialized DSA and dshash entries. Furthermore, the view now reports partially-initialized entries with a NULL size.

2025-12-02Avoid use of NOTICE to wait for snapshot invalidationÁlvaro Herrera
This idea (implemented in commits and bc32a12e0db2 and 9e8fa05d3412) of using notices to detect that a session is sleeping was unreliable, so simplify the concurrency controller session to just look at pg_stat_activity for a process sleeping on the injection point we want it to hit. This change allows us to remove a secondary injection point and the alternative expected output files.

2025-12-02Remove useless casting to same typePeter Eisentraut
This removes some casts where the input already has the same type as the type specified by the cast. Their presence could cause risks of hiding actual type mismatches in the future or silently discarding qualifiers. It also improves readability. Same kind of idea as 7f798aca1d5 and ef8fe693606.

2025-12-02Update some timestamp[tz] functions to use soft-error reportingMichael Paquier
This commit updates two functions that convert "timestamptz" to "timestamp", and vice-versa, to use the soft error reporting rather than a their own logic to do the same. These are now named as follows: - timestamp2timestamptz_safe() - timestamptz2timestamp_safe() These functions were suffixed with "_opt_overflow", previously. This shaves some code, as it is possible to detect how a timestamp[tz] overflowed based on the returned value rather than a custom state. It is optionally possible for the callers of these functions to rely on the error generated internally by these functions, depending on the error context. Similar work has been done in d03668ea0566 and 4246a977bad6. Reviewed-by: Amul Sul <sulamul@gmail.com> Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/aS09YF2GmVXjAxbJ@paquier.xyz
2025-12-01Make regex "max_chr" depend on encoding, not provider.Jeff Davis
The regex mechanism scans through the first "max_chr" character values to cache character property ranges (isalpha, etc.). For single-byte encodings, there's no sense in scanning beyond UCHAR_MAX; but for UTF-8 it makes sense to cache higher code point values (though not all of them; only up to MAX_SIMPLE_CHR). Prior to 5a38104b36, the logic about how many character values to scan was based on the pg_regex_strategy, which was dependent on the provider. Commit 5a38104b36 preserved that logic exactly, allowing different providers to define the "max_chr". Now, change it to depend only on the encoding and whether ctype_is_c. For this specific calculation, distinguishing between providers creates more complexity than it's worth.

2025-12-01Switch some date/timestamp functions to use the soft error reportingMichael Paquier
This commit changes some functions related to the data types date and timestamp to use the soft error reporting rather than a custom boolean flag called "overflow", used to let the callers of these functions know if an overflow happens. This results in the removal of some boilerplate code, as it is possible to rely on an error context rather than a custom state, with the possibility to use the error generated inside the functions updated here, if necessary. These functions were suffixed with "_opt_overflow". They are now renamed to use "_safe" as suffix. This work is similar to 4246a977bad6.
