A Value node would store an integer as a long. This causes needless

This adds a new object type "procedure" that is similar to a function
but does not have a return type and is invoked by the new CALL statement
instead of SELECT or similar. This implementation is aligned with the
SQL standard and compatible with or similar to other SQL implementations.
This commit adds new commands CALL, CREATE/ALTER/DROP PROCEDURE, as well
as ALTER/DROP ROUTINE that can refer to either a function or a
procedure (or an aggregate function, as an extension to SQL). There is
also support for procedures in various utility commands such as COMMENT
and GRANT, as well as support in pg_dump and psql. Support for defining
procedures is available in all the languages supplied by the core
distribution.
While this commit is mainly syntax sugar around existing functionality,
future features will rely on having procedures as a separate object
type.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.
Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.
Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:
* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
than the expected column 33.
On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.
There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

Once upon a time, it made sense for the ecpg preprocessor to have its
own version number, because it used a manually-maintained grammar that
wasn't always in sync with the core grammar. But those days are
thankfully long gone, leaving only a maintenance nuisance behind.
Let's use the PG v10 version numbering changeover as an excuse to get
rid of the ecpg version number and just have ecpg identify itself by
PG_VERSION. From the user's standpoint, ecpg will go from "4.12" in
the 9.6 branch to "10" in the 10 branch, so there's no failure of
monotonicity.

Now that we have src/common/ for code shared between frontend and backend,
we can get rid of (most of) the klugy ways that the keyword table and
keyword lookup code were formerly shared between different uses.
This is a first step towards a more general plan of getting rid of
special-purpose kluges for sharing code in src/bin/.
I chose to merge kwlookup.c back into keywords.c, as it once was, and
always has been so far as keywords.h is concerned. We could have
kept them separate, but there is noplace that uses ScanKeywordLookup
without also wanting access to the backend's keyword list, so there
seems little point.
ecpg is still a bit weird, but at least now the trickiness is documented.
I think that the MSVC build script should require no adjustments beyond
what's done here ... but we'll soon find out.
Now that we know about the %top{} trick, we can revert to building flex
lexers as separate .o files. This is worth doing for a couple of reasons
besides sheer cleanliness. We can narrow the scope of the -Wno-error flag
that's forced on scan.c. Also, since these grammar and lexer files are
so large, splitting them into separate build targets should have some
advantages in build speed, particularly in parallel or ccache'd builds.
We have quite a few other .l files that could be changed likewise, but the
above arguments don't apply to them, so the benefit of fixing them seems
pretty minimal. Leave the rest for some other day.
This provides a mechanism for specifying conversions between SQL data
types and procedural languages. As examples, there are transforms

This improves on commit bbfd7edae5 by
making two simple changes:
* pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn().
Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed(). This reduces
pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them.
* attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not
definitions. Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts,
which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent
but often were outright wrong anyway. (It does little good to put a
noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.) In any case, if
we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc
compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns.
I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of
declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete
anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
While the SQL standard is pretty vague on the overall topic of operator
precedence (because it never presents a unified BNF for all expressions),
it does seem reasonable to conclude from the spec for <boolean value
expression> that OR has the lowest precedence, then AND, then NOT, then IS
tests, then the six standard comparison operators, then everything else
(since any non-boolean operator in a WHERE clause would need to be an
argument of one of these).
We were only sort of on board with that: most notably, while "<" ">" and
"=" had properly low precedence, "<=" ">=" and "<>" were treated as generic
operators and so had significantly higher precedence. And "IS" tests were
even higher precedence than those, which is very clearly wrong per spec.
Another problem was that "foo NOT SOMETHING bar" constructs, such as
"x NOT LIKE y", were treated inconsistently because of a bison
implementation artifact: they had the documented precedence with respect
to operators to their right, but behaved like NOT (i.e., very low priority)
with respect to operators to their left.
Fixing the precedence issues is just a small matter of rearranging the
precedence declarations in gram.y, except for the NOT problem, which
requires adding an additional lookahead case in base_yylex() so that we
can attach a different token precedence to NOT LIKE and allied two-word
operators.
The bulk of this patch is not the bug fix per se, but adding logic to
parse_expr.c to allow giving warnings if an expression has changed meaning
because of these precedence changes. These warnings are off by default
and are enabled by the new GUC operator_precedence_warning. It's believed
that very few applications will be affected by these changes, but it was
agreed that a warning mechanism is essential to help debug any that are.
Until now __attribute__() was defined to be empty for all compilers but
gcc. That's problematic because it prevents using it in other compilers;
which is necessary e.g. for atomics portability. It's also just
generally dubious to do so in a header as widely included as c.h.
Instead add pg_attribute_format_arg, pg_attribute_printf,
pg_attribute_noreturn macros which are implemented in the compilers that
understand them. Also add pg_attribute_noreturn and pg_attribute_packed,
but don't provide fallbacks, since they can affect functionality.
This means that external code that, possibly unwittingly, relied on
__attribute__ defined to be empty on !gcc compilers may now run into
warnings or errors on those compilers. But there shouldn't be many
occurances of that and it's hard to work around...

Author: Oskari Saarenmaa, with some minor changes by me.
Commit 865f14a2d3 was quite a few bricks
shy of a load: psql, ecpg, and plpgsql were all left out-of-step with
the core lexer. Of these only the last was likely to be a fatal
problem; but still, a minimal amount of grepping, or even just reading
the comments adjacent to the places that were changed, would have found
the other places that needed to be changed.
There are a couple of places in our grammar that fail to be strict LALR(1),
by requiring more than a single token of lookahead to decide what to do.
Up to now we've dealt with that by using a filter between the lexer and
parser that merges adjacent tokens into one in the places where two tokens
of lookahead are necessary. But that creates a number of user-visible
anomalies, for instance that you can't name a CTE "ordinality" because
"WITH ordinality AS ..." triggers folding of WITH and ORDINALITY into one
token. I realized that there's a better way.
In this patch, we still do the lookahead basically as before, but we never
merge the second token into the first; we replace just the first token by
a special lookahead symbol when one of the lookahead pairs is seen.
This requires a couple extra productions in the grammar, but it involves
fewer special tokens, so that the grammar tables come out a bit smaller
than before. The filter logic is no slower than before, perhaps a bit
faster.
I also fixed the filter logic so that when backing up after a lookahead,
the current token's terminator is correctly restored; this eliminates some
weird behavior in error message issuance, as is shown by the one change in
existing regression test outputs.
I believe that this patch entirely eliminates odd behaviors caused by
lookahead for WITH. It doesn't really improve the situation for NULLS
followed by FIRST/LAST unfortunately: those sequences still act like a
reserved word, even though there are cases where they should be seen as two
ordinary identifiers, eg "SELECT nulls first FROM ...". I experimented
with additional grammar hacks but couldn't find any simple solution for
that. Still, this is better than before, and it seems much more likely
that we *could* somehow solve the NULLS case on the basis of this filter
behavior than the previous one.
This reverts commit 45b7abe59e.
It turns out that the %name-prefix syntax without "=" does not work
at all in pre-2.4 Bison. We are not prepared to make such a large
jump in minimum required Bison version just to suppress a warning
message in a version hardly any developers are using yet.
When 3.0 gets more popular, we'll figure out a way to deal with this.
In the meantime, BISONFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated is recommendable for
anyone using 3.0 who doesn't want to see the warning.
%name-prefix doesn't use an "=" sign according to the Bison docs, but it
silently accepted one anyway, until Bison 3.0. This was originally a
typo of mine in commit 012abebab1, and we
seem to have slavishly copied the error into all the other grammar files.

A number of issues were identified by the Coverity scanner and are
addressed in this patch. None of these appear to be security issues
and many are mostly cosmetic changes.
Short comments for each of the changes follows.
Correct the semi-colon placement in be-secure.c regarding SSL retries.
Remove a useless comparison-to-NULL in proc.c (value is dereferenced
prior to this check and therefore can't be NULL).
Add checking of chmod() return values to initdb.
Fix a couple minor memory leaks in initdb.
Fix memory leak in pg_ctl- involves free'ing the config file contents.
Use an int to capture fgetc() return instead of an enum in pg_dump.
Fix minor memory leaks in pg_dump.
(note minor change to convertOperatorReference()'s API)
Check fclose()/remove() return codes in psql.
Check fstat(), find_my_exec() return codes in psql.
Various ECPG memory leak fixes.
Check find_my_exec() return in ECPG.
Explicitly ignore pqFlush return in libpq error-path.
Change PQfnumber() to avoid doing an strdup() when no changes required.
Remove a few useless check-against-NULL's (value deref'd beforehand).
Check rmtree(), malloc() results in pg_regress.
Also check get_alternative_expectfile() return in pg_regress.
Coverity identified a number of places in which it couldn't prove that a
string being copied into a fixed-size buffer would fit. We believe that
most, perhaps all of these are in fact safe, or are copying data that is
coming from a trusted source so that any overrun is not really a security
issue. Nonetheless it seems prudent to forestall any risk by using
strlcpy() and similar functions.
Fixes by Peter Eisentraut and Jozef Mlich based on Coverity reports.
In addition, fix a potential null-pointer-dereference crash in
contrib/chkpass. The crypt(3) function is defined to return NULL on
failure, but chkpass.c didn't check for that before using the result.
The main practical case in which this could be an issue is if libc is
configured to refuse to execute unapproved hashing algorithms (e.g.,
"FIPS mode"). This ideally should've been a separate commit, but
since it touches code adjacent to one of the buffer overrun changes,
I included it in this commit to avoid last-minute merge issues.

ECPG is not supposed to allow and output nested comments in C. These comments
are only allowed in the SQL parts and must not be written into the C file.

This includes backend "COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM '...'" syntax, and corresponding
psql \copy syntax. Like with reading/writing files, the backend version is
superuser-only, and in the psql version, the program is run in the client.
In the passing, the psql \copy STDIN/STDOUT syntax is subtly changed: if you
the stdin/stdout is quoted, it's now interpreted as a filename. For example,
"\copy foo from 'stdin'" now reads from a file called 'stdin', not from
standard input. Before this, there was no way to specify a filename called
stdin, stdout, pstdin or pstdout.
This creates a new function in pgport, wait_result_to_str(), which can

The backend grammar treats STDIN and STDOUT completely interchangeable, so

but it's not ecpg's business to second guess that.
This is to see if it will stop intermittent build failures on buildfarm
member okapi. We know that gmake 3.82 has some problems with sometimes
not honoring dependencies in parallel builds, and it seems likely that
this is more of the same. Since the vast bulk of the work in the preproc
directory is associated with creating preproc.c and then preproc.o,
parallelism buys us hardly anything here anyway.
Also, make both this .NOTPARALLEL and the one previously added in
interfaces/ecpg/Makefile be conditional on "ifeq ($(MAKE_VERSION),3.82)".
The known bug in gmake is fixed upstream and should not be present in
3.83 and up, and there's no reason to think it affects older releases.
Numerous flex and bison make rules have appeared in the source tree
over time, and they are all virtually identical, so we can replace
them by pattern rules with some variables for customization.
Users of pgxs will also be able to benefit from this.
This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a
sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM,
since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal
use-cases.
The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of
which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is
being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare
RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE
pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from
supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks
that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM
expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed.
Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight.
In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by
virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some
comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly
add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.)
The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved

This includes fixing the MSVC copy of ecpg/preproc's version info, which
seems to have been overlooked repeatedly. Can't we fix that so there are
not two copies??
ecpg and pg_dump each contain keyword arrays with structure similar
to the backend's keyword array. Up to now, we actually named those
arrays the same as the backend's and relied on parser/keywords.h
to declare them. This seems a tad too cute, though, and it breaks
now that we need to PGDLLIMPORT-decorate the backend symbols.
Rename to avoid the problem. Per buildfarm.
(It strikes me that maybe we should get rid of the separate keywords.c
files altogether, and just define these arrays in the modules that use
them, but that's a rather more invasive change.)
Ever since we introduced real prepared statements this should work for
different connections. The old solution just emulating prepared statements,
though, wasn't able to handle this.
