  1. BUG #15602: pg_dump archive items not in correct section order

    The Post Office <noreply@postgresql.org> — 2019-01-22T06:06:20Z

    The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      15602
Logged by:          Tom Cassidy
Email address:      tcassidy@mossridge.com.au
PostgreSQL version: 11.1
Operating system:   Devuan 2.0 ASCII
Description:        

Operating System: Devuan 2.0 ASCII (derivative of Debian 9/stretch)
Hardware: KVM Virtual Machine
PostgreSQL version: PostgreSQL 11.1 (Debian 11.1-1.pgdg90+1) on
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18+deb9u1) 6.3.0
20170516, 64-bit
pg_dump version: pg_dump (PostgreSQL) 11.1 (Debian 11.1-1.pgdg90+1)
Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64
System Memory: 1GB
C library: libc6 (2.24-11+deb9u3)
Installation: following the quickstart instrunctions on
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt, installing the postgresql-11 package
from apt.postgresql.org for Debian 9/stretch


When I run pg_dump on a database, it reports the following warning:

pg_dump: [archiver] WARNING: archive items not in correct section order


The following SQL script replicates the warning when run on a new instance
of PostgreSQL 11.1:

postgres@devuan:/tmp$ cat test_case.sql 
CREATE DATABASE test_mv TEMPLATE template0;

\c test_mv

CREATE TABLE table1
(
    id bigint NOT NULL,
    name text NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT table1_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

CREATE TABLE table2
(
    id bigint NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT table2_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW mv_2
AS
 SELECT table1.name,
    table1.id
   FROM table1
  GROUP BY table1.id;

CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW mv_1
AS
 SELECT z.name,
    a.id AS a_id,
    z.id AS z_id
   FROM table1 a
     JOIN ( SELECT mv_2.name,
            mv_2.id
           FROM mv_2) z ON z.id = a.id;
postgres@devuan:/tmp$


I have tested this on a new installation of PostgreSQL 11.1 using the
following commands:

postgres@devuan:/tmp$ psql -f test_case.sql
postgres@devuan:/tmp$ pg_dump test_mv > test_mv.sql
pg_dump: [archiver] WARNING: archive items not in correct section order
postgres@devuan:/tmp$

It does indeed ... curious.

repairDependencyLoop sees this curious case involving ten objects:

repairing loop: 10 (mv_2 [type 12], _RETURN [type 17] (on mv_2), table1_pkey [type 19], POST-DATA BOUNDARY [type 37], foo [type 23], PRE-DATA BOUNDARY [type 36], _mv_1 [type 25], mv_1 [type 25], mv_1 [type 12], _RETURN [type 17] (on mv_1))

(I just patched it to print the loop objects as attached)

Hmph.  What this shows is that commit 62215de29 was a few bricks shy
of a load.  It got rid of this symptom for the case of a matview that's
dependent on a table's primary key (meaning we have to postpone the
matview creation into the post-data section of the archive), but I did
not think about additional matviews that are dependent on the one with
the circularity problem.  They all have to get postponed, and the
dependency logic correctly fixes that ... but it doesn't mark all
of them as "postponed_def", so that they don't get labeled with
SECTION_POST_DATA and then ProcessArchiveRestoreOptions thinks
something is wrong.

Basically this is sloppy thinking in repairMatViewBoundaryMultiLoop:
the thing that's getting moved to post-data is whatever we just
removed the pre-data dependency for.  The attached seems to be
enough to fix it.

Tom, are you in a position to rebuild pg_dump with this fix applied,
and see if it cures your original case as well as the simplified one?

PS: It's surprising that it took this long for anyone to notice.

PPS: We really ought to get off our duffs and invent CREATE OR REPLACE
for matviews, so that these loops can be fixed in a less unprincipled
fashion.

Hi Tom,

I downloaded the git source and built postgres from REL_11_STABLE branch 
using the instructions at 
https://blog.2ndquadrant.com/testing-new-postgresql-versions-without-messing-up-your-install/. 
  Your patch looked like it was already applied to this branch so I 
didn't apply it.

Running pg_dump from the patched version I didn't notice any warning 
output on either the original database or the simplified test case 
database, so it appears that this patch solves the issue.

I ran the pg_dump as plain-text SQL output format, and there were no 
differences in the generated SQL between the old pg_dump and the patched 
pg_dump, except for the pg_dump version string.

Regards,
Tom

Yeah, I committed it a couple hours ago --- "git log" would confirm
whether you had it or not.

Cool, thanks for checking!
