3.3.4 (tokakiboshi) 2014/09/05
* Version 3.3.4
This is a bugfix release against pgpool-II 3.3.3.
__________________________________________________________________
* Bug fixes
- Fix a typo of pgpool.spec (Yugo Nagata)
- Fix bug that worker child process keeps failing when there's no
primary backend (Tatsuo Ishii)
Problem identified and fix contributed by Junegunn Choi.
See [pgpool-hackers: 471] for more details.
- Close listen socket when smart shutdown request is made (Tatsuo Ishii)
When smart shutdown process starts, pgpool children still listen on
the port and clients can send further connection requests which fail
in the end. Which is not only waste of time, but also prevents a load
balancer which sits in front of pgpool from realizing the pgpool is
going down.
Problem analyzed and patch provided by Junegunn Choi in [pgpool-hackers
474], and enhanced to take care not only inet domain socket but UNIX
domain socket by Tatsuo Ishii.
- doc: Add cautions that recovery commands are killed by statement_timeout
of PostgreSQL. (Tatsuo Ishii)
- test: Fix bug that wait_for_pgpool_startup does not work. (Tatsuo Ishii)
- test: Fix test driver for watchdog to use wait_for_pgpool_startup correctly
(Tatsuo Ishii)
- Fix to ignore a harmless error code when executing ifconfig command
(Yugo Nagata)
When executing command such as ifconfig or ping by execv() in a forked
child proess, wait() can fails with an error code ECHILD, although the
process exists exactly, if SIGCHLD is set to SIG_IGN in Linux. We should
ignore this and not treat as failure of the command.
- test: Add undocumented "-j" option to the script comment. (Tatsuo Ishii)
- test: Fix unwanted JDBC regression test failure (Tatsuo Ishii)
- test: Fix to prevent regression test failures on slow machines
(Tatsuo Ishii)
- test: Allow to specify PostgreSQL library directory by environment
variable (Tatsuo Ishii)
- Adopt PostgreSQL 9.4 having to_regclass (Tatsuo Ishii)
PostgreSQL 9.4 has built-in function "to_regclass", which has
equivalent functionality of pgpool_regclass. Now pgpool searches
to_regclass first then try pgpool_regclass.
- Fix unportable code related to SO_REUSEPORT (Tatsuo Ishii)
There are several places using setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET,
SO_REUSEPORT...). SO_REUSEPORT is not available on all Linux kernels
and the source code uses ifdef to detect the feature in the compile
time. Problem is, the binary created with kernel which provides the
feature cannot run on a kernel which does not provide the feature. Fix
is, detecting the feature in the run time by checking error code
returned by setsockopt() and ignore it if the cause of the error is
lacking the feature.
- doc: Remove old restriction description which is no longer true
(Tatsuo Ishii)
- Fix return type of text_to_lsn() function (Yugo Nagata)
This caused compile warning.
- Fix file descriptor leak when daemonize. (Tatsuo Ishii)
Per Coverity 1111471.
- Fix memory leak. (Tatsuo Ishii)
Per Coverity 1111442.
- Fix pgpool.init's long-standing bug of stop/restart failure
(Yugo Nagata)
In previous, pgpool.init uses killproc for stopping pgpool, but there
are several problems. In the new version, "pgpool -m fast stop" is
used in stop command.
Original patch contributed by Ryan DeShone and modified by Yugo Nagata.
See [pgpool-hackers: 239][pgpool-hackers: 512].
- Allow to run pgpool_setup and regression test on Ubuntu box
(Tatsuo Ishii)
- test: Fix -i option (install directory of pgpool) not working
(Tatsuo Ishii)
- Add missing include file sys/wait.h. (Tatsuo Ishii)
Per bug #104.
http://www.pgpool.net/mantisbt/view.php?id=104
- Fix an infinite loop of ping error at new active pgpool when virtual
IP switching (Yugo Nagata)
This bug also caused hangs of the old active pgpool, since this waits
response from the new active pgpool, which is in the infinite loop and
not able to respond.
This problem is reported by Qian Peng in [pgpool-hackers: 520].
- Disbale statement_timeout of PostgreSQL while executing online recovery
(Tatsuo Ishii)
Online recovery may take very long time and user may enable statement
timeout. To prevent online recovery canceled by statement timeout,
disable statement timeout in the connection used by online recovery.
See [pgpool-general: 2919] for more details.
- Fix pool_table_name_to_oid in case new to_regclass used which is
introduced in PostgreSQL 9.4 (Tatsuo Ishii)
The relcache func used here should return 0 if target table is not
found. However to_regclass returns NULL in this case. To fix the
problem now COALESCE is used.
- test: Fix regression test 057 hung if run against PostgreSQL 9.4 or
later (Tatsuo Ishii)
PostgreSQL 9.4 or later changed libpq behavior: NULL username for
connection string does not cause an error, which was expected in the
test.
- Fix to close pipe when ping command exits with failure (Yugo Nagata)
This bug causes pipe open error: Too many open files, which
leads to failure of connecting to trusted servers, and then
pgpool goes to down status.
- Fix Resource leaks (Muhammad Usama)
Coverity issue #1222998 and #1222999.
- Add a description that pcp_detach_node command disconnects existing
sessions (Tatsuo Ishii)
- Fix failover.sh produced by pgpool_setup (Tatsuo Ishii)
It did not support there's more than 3 nodes case. It always tries to
promoto node0 or node1.
- Remove meaningless minus check because of unsigned int variable
(Tatsuo Ishii)
Coverity issue #1111419, #1111420, #1111422.
- replacing strcpy() with much safer and recomended call strlcpy()
(Muhammad Usama)
Coverity issue #1111480.
- Fix pgpool.spec to support openssl (Tatsuo Ishii)
- Fix pgpool.spec to use 3.3-stable tree head (Tatsuo Ishii)
- Remove unnecessary call to pool_shmem_exit() which removes semaphore
when it shouldn't (Tatsuo Ishii)
exit_handler checks if the process is parent or not. This is
good. However, even if it is a child process, it calls
pool_shmem_exit() which removes semaphore and shmem when it should
not. It should be called only from parent process.
Per bug #102.
http://www.pgpool.net/mantisbt/view.php?id=102
- Fix get_insert_command_table_name() function not to use freed pointer
(Muhammad Usama)
Coverity issue #1223007.
- Fix pool_handle_query_cache() to not free NULL pointer (Tatsuo Ishii)
- Change connect() timeout longer (10 seconds) for flaky network
(Tatsuo Ishii)
Change connect() timeout in connect_inet_domain_socket_by_port() from
1 second to 10 seconds for flaky network such as AWS. This should help
reducing frequent failover.
- Fix reset query stuck problem. (Tatsuo Ishii)
It is reported that reset query (DISCARD ALL etc.) occasionally does
not finish and pgpool child remain waiting for reply from backend thus
client cannot connect to pgpool.
The cause of problem is not identified yet but if client suddenly
closes connection to pgpool in the middle of query processing, backend
may not accept the reset queries because they are not ready for query.
The fix is, if frontend closes connection in unexpected way, query
process loop immediately returns with new state:
POOL_END_WITH_FRONTEND_ERROR and pgpool closes connection to
PostgreSQL then goes back to new connection request waiting loop.
Also, pgpool closes connections to backend when client_idle_limit is
set and the idle limit.
Per bug #107.

- Fix other dozens of coverity issues (Muhammad Usama)
