Newest versions of gcc+glibc 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.
Thanks to Bertrand Drouvot for finding a couple more spots than
I had.
This commit back-patches relevant portions of 8f1791c61 and

to silence those two warnings by adding casts.

The test added by commit 4b760a181 assumed that a table's physical
row order would be predictable after an UPDATE. But a non-heap table
AM might produce some other order. Even with heap AM, the assumption
seems risky; compare a3fd53bab for instance. Adding an ORDER BY is
cheap insurance and doesn't break any goal of the test.

The grease patch in 4966bd3ed found its first problem: prior to the
February 2018 patch releases, no server knew how to negotiate protocol
versions, so pg_upgrade needs to take that into account when speaking to
those older servers.
This will be true even after the grease feature is reverted; we don't
need anyone to trip over this again in the future. Backpatch so that all
supported versions of pg_upgrade can gracefully handle an update to the
default protocol version. (This is needed for any distributions that
link older binaries against newer libpqs, such as Debian.) Branches
prior to 18 need an additional version check, for the existence of
max_protocol_version.

Commit 1e7fe06c10 changed
pg_mbstrlen_with_len() to ereport(ERROR) if the input ends in an
incomplete character. Most callers want that. text_substring() does
not. It detoasts the most bytes it could possibly need to get the
requested number of characters. For example, to extract up to 2 chars
from UTF8, it needs to detoast 8 bytes. In a string of 3-byte UTF8
chars, 8 bytes spans 2 complete chars and 1 partial char.
Fix this by replacing this pg_mbstrlen_with_len() call with a string
traversal that differs by stopping upon finding as many chars as the
substring could need. This also makes SUBSTRING() stop raising an
encoding error if the incomplete char is past the end of the substring.
This is consistent with the general philosophy of the above commit,
which was to raise errors on a just-in-time basis. Before the above
commit, SUBSTRING() never raised an encoding error.
SUBSTRING() has long been detoasting enough for one more char than
needed, because it did not distinguish exclusive and inclusive end
position. For avoidance of doubt, stop detoasting extra.
Back-patch to v14, like the above commit. For applications using
SUBSTRING() on non-ASCII column values, consider applying this to your

While the preceding commit prevented such attachments from occurring
in future, this one aims to prevent further abuse of any already-
created operator that exposes _int_matchsel to the wrong data types.
(No other contrib module has a vulnerable selectivity estimator.)
We need only check that the Const we've found in the query is indeed
of the type we expect (query_int), but there's a difficulty: as an
extension type, query_int doesn't have a fixed OID that we could
hard-code into the estimator.
Therefore, the bulk of this patch consists of infrastructure to let
an extension function securely look up the OID of a datatype
belonging to the same extension. (Extension authors have requested
such functionality before, so we anticipate that this code will
have additional non-security uses, and may soon be extended to allow
looking up other kinds of SQL objects.)
This is done by first finding the extension that owns the calling
function (there can be only one), and then thumbing through the
objects owned by that extension to find a type that has the desired
name. This is relatively expensive, especially for large extensions,
so a simple cache is put in front of these lookups.

Selectivity estimators come in two flavors: those that make specific
assumptions about the data types they are working with, and those
that don't. Most of the built-in estimators are of the latter kind
and are meant to be safely attachable to any operator. If the
operator does not behave as the estimator expects, you might get a
poor estimate, but it won't crash.
However, estimators that do make datatype assumptions can malfunction
if they are attached to the wrong operator, since then the data they
get from pg_statistic may not be of the type they expect. This can
rise to the level of a security problem, even permitting arbitrary
code execution by a user who has the ability to create SQL objects.
To close this hole, establish a rule that built-in estimators are
required to protect themselves against being called on the wrong type
of data. It does not seem practical however to expect estimators in
extensions to reach a similar level of security, at least not in the
near term. Therefore, also establish a rule that superuser privilege
is required to attach a non-built-in estimator to an operator.
We expect that this restriction will have little negative impact on
extensions, since estimators generally have to be written in C and
thus superuser privilege is required to create them in the first
place.
This commit changes the privilege checks in CREATE/ALTER OPERATOR
to enforce the rule about superuser privilege, and fixes a couple
of built-in estimators that were making datatype assumptions without
sufficiently checking that they're valid.

An upcoming patch requires this cache so that it can track updates
in the pg_extension catalog. So far though, the EXTENSIONOID cache
only exists in v18 and up (see 490f869d9). We can add it in older
branches without an ABI break, if we are careful not to disturb the
numbering of existing syscache IDs.
In v16 and before, that just requires adding the new ID at the end
of the hand-assigned enum list, ignoring our convention about
alphabetizing the IDs. But in v17, genbki.pl enforces alphabetical
order of the IDs listed in MAKE_SYSCACHE macros. We can fake it
out by calling the new cache ZEXTENSIONOID.
Note that adding a syscache does change the required contents of the
relcache init file (pg_internal.init). But that isn't problematic
since we blow those away at postmaster start for other reasons.

2. Callers with a length or end pointer now use either

BackgroundPsql needs to wait for all the output from an interactive
psql command to come back. To make sure that's happened, it issues
the command, then issues \echo and \warn psql commands that echo
a "banner" string (which we assume won't appear in the command's
output), then waits for the banner strings to appear. The hazard
in this approach is that the banner will also appear in the echoed
psql commands themselves, so we need to distinguish those echoes from
the desired output. Commit 8b886a4e3 tried to do that by positing
that the desired output would be directly preceded and followed by
newlines, but it turns out that that assumption is timing-sensitive.
In particular, it tends to fail in builds made --without-readline,
wherein the command echoes will be made by the pty driver and may
be interspersed with prompts issued by psql proper.
It does seem safe to assume that the banner output we want will be
followed by a newline, since that should be the last output before
things quiesce. Therefore, we can improve matters by putting quotes
around the banner strings in the \echo and \warn psql commands, so
that their echoes cannot include banner directly followed by newline,
and then checking for just banner-and-newline in the match pattern.
While at it, spruce up the pump() call in sub query() to look like
the neater version in wait_connect(), and don't die on timeout

Some other places throw error if they see a moved-across-partitions
tuple, but there seems no need for that here, because if we just retry
then we get the same behavior as in the update-within-partition case,
as demonstrated by the new isolation test. So fix by deleting the
faulty Assert. (The fact that this is the fix doubtless explains
why we've heard no field complaints: the behavior of a non-assert

With LLVM >= 17, transform passes are provided as a string to
LLVMRunPasses. Only two strings were used: "default<O3>" and
"default<O0>,mem2reg".
With previous LLVM versions, an additional inline pass was added when
JIT inlining was enabled without optimization. With LLVM >= 17, the code
would go through llvm_inline, prepare the functions for inlining, but
the generated bitcode would be the same due to the missing inline pass.
This patch restores the previous behavior by adding an inline pass when
inlining is enabled but no optimization is done.
This fixes an oversight introduced by 76200e5e when support for LLVM 17
was added.

We were using SnapshotAny to do some index checks, but that's wrong and
causes spurious errors when used on indexes created by CREATE INDEX
CONCURRENTLY. Fix it to use an MVCC snapshot, and add a test for it.
Backpatch of 6bd469d26a to branches 14-16. I previously misidentified
the bug's origin: it came in with commit 7f563c09f8 (pg11-era, not
5ae2087202 as claimed previously), so all live branches are affected.
Also take the opportunity to fix some comments that we failed to update
in the original commits and apply pgperltidy. In branch 14, remove the
unnecessary test plan specification (which would have need to have been
changed anyway; c.f. commit 549ec201d613.)

This is pretty pro-forma for our purposes, as the only change
is a historical correction for pre-1976 DST laws in
Baja California. (Upstream made this release mostly to update
their leap-second data, which we don't use.) But with minor
releases coming up, we should be up-to-date.

The code adding the WAL information included in a backup manifest is
cross-checked with the contents of the timeline history file of the end
timeline. A check based on the end timeline, when it fails, reported
the value of the start timeline in the error message. This error is
fixed to show the correct timeline number in the report.
This error report would be confusing for users if seen, because it would
provide an incorrect information, so backpatch all the way down.
Oversight in 0d8c9c1210.

If a FATAL error occurs while holding a lock in a DSM segment (such
as a dshash lock) and the process is not in a transaction, a
segmentation fault can occur during process exit.
The problem sequence is:
1. Process acquires a lock in a DSM segment (e.g., via dshash)
2. FATAL error occurs outside transaction context
3. proc_exit() begins, calling before_shmem_exit callbacks
4. dsm_backend_shutdown() detaches all DSM segments
5. Later, on_shmem_exit callbacks run
6. ProcKill() calls LWLockReleaseAll()
7. Segfault: the lock being released is in unmapped memory
This only manifests outside transaction contexts because
AbortTransaction() calls LWLockReleaseAll() during transaction
abort, releasing locks before DSM cleanup. Background workers and
other non-transactional code paths are vulnerable.
Fix by calling LWLockReleaseAll() unconditionally at the start of
shmem_exit(), before any callbacks run. Releasing locks before
callbacks prevents the segfault - locks must be released before
dsm_backend_shutdown() detaches their memory. This is safe because
after an error, held locks are protecting potentially inconsistent
data anyway, and callbacks can acquire fresh locks if needed.
Also add a comment noting that LWLockReleaseAll() must be safe to
call before LWLock initialization (which it is, since
num_held_lwlocks will be 0), plus an Assert for the post-condition.
This fix aligns with the original design intent from commit
001a573a2, which noted that backends must clean up shared memory
state (including releasing lwlocks) before unmapping dynamic shared
memory segments.

On restart, a replica can fail with an error like 'unexpected data
beyond EOF in block 200 of relation T/D/R'. These are the steps to
reproduce it:
- A relation has a size of 400 blocks.
- Blocks 201 to 400 are empty.
- Block 200 has two rows.
- Blocks 100 to 199 are empty.
- A restartpoint is done
- Vacuum truncates the relation to 200 blocks
- A FPW deletes a row in block 200
- A checkpoint is done
- A FPW deletes the last row in block 200
- Vacuum truncates the relation to 100 blocks
- The replica restarts
When the replica restarts:
- The relation on disk starts at 100 blocks, because all the
truncations were applied before restart.
- The first truncate to 200 blocks is replayed. It silently fails, but
it will still (incorrectly!) update the cache size to 200 blocks
- The first FPW on block 200 is applied. XLogReadBufferForRead relies
on the cached size and incorrectly assumes that the page already
exists in the file, and thus won't extend the relation.
- The online checkpoint record is replayed, calling smgrdestroyall
which causes the cached size to be discarded
- The second FPW on block 200 is applied. This time, the detected size
is 100 blocks, an extend is attempted. However, the block 200 is
already present in the buffer cache due to the first FPW. This
triggers the 'unexpected data beyond EOF'.
To fix, update the cached size in SmgrRelation with the current size
rather than the requested new size, when the requested new size is
greater.

If a multixid with zero offset is left behind after a crash, and that
multixid later becomes the oldest multixid, truncation might try to
look up its offset and read the zero value. In the worst case, we
might incorrectly use the zero offset to truncate valid SLRU segments
that are still needed. I'm not sure if that can happen in practice, or
if there are some other lower-level safeguards or incidental reasons
that prevent the caller from passing an unwritten multixid as the
oldest multi. But better safe than sorry, so let's add an explicit
check for it.
In stable branches, we should perhaps do the same check for
'oldestOffset', i.e. the offset of the old oldest multixid (in master,
'oldestOffset' is gone). But if the old oldest multixid has an invalid
offset, the damage has been done already, and we would never advance
past that point. It's not clear what we should do in that case. The
check that this commit adds will prevent such an multixid with invalid
offset from becoming the oldest multixid in the first place, which
seems enough for now.

When creating a partition for a RANGE partitioned table, the reporting
of errors relating to converting the specified range values into
constant values for the partition key's type could display the name of a
previous partition key column when an earlier range was specified as
MINVALUE or MAXVALUE.
This was caused by the code not correctly incrementing the index that
tracks which partition key the foreach loop was working on after
processing MINVALUE/MAXVALUE ranges.
Fix by using foreach_current_index() to ensure the index variable is
always set to the List element being worked on.
