Bug reference: 15887
Logged by: Rui Hai Jiang
Email address: ruihaij@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 12beta2
Operating system: all
Description:
In function TopoSort(), an extra "break" instruction make it impossible to
set beforeConstraints to -1 for other
processes in the same group. If the waiter's group has more than one
members in the wait for queue, the sorting couldn't get the right order.
The issue exists in all V10,V11,V12 releases.
static bool
TopoSort(LOCK *lock,
EDGE *constraints,
int nConstraints,
PGPROC **ordering) /* output argument */
{
MemSet(beforeConstraints, 0, queue_size * sizeof(int));
MemSet(afterConstraints, 0, queue_size * sizeof(int));
for (i = 0; i < nConstraints; i++)
{
/*
* Find a representative process that is on the lock queue
and part of
* the waiting lock group. This may or may not be the
leader, which
* may or may not be waiting at all. If there are any other
processes
* in the same lock group on the queue, set their number
of
* beforeConstraints to -1 to indicate that they should be
emitted
* with their groupmates rather than considered
separately.
*/
proc = constraints[i].waiter;
Assert(proc != NULL);
jj = -1;
for (j = queue_size; --j >= 0;)
{
PGPROC *waiter = topoProcs[j];
if (waiter == proc || waiter->lockGroupLeader ==
proc)
{
Assert(waiter->waitLock == lock);
if (jj == -1)
jj = j;
else
{
Assert(beforeConstraints[j] <= 0);
beforeConstraints[j] = -1;
}
break;
}
}
}
}
A proposed patch is also sent to the hacker' list.
