Previously, on standby promotion, the startup process sent SIGUSR1 to
the slotsync worker (or a backend performing slot synchronization) and
waited for it to exit. This worked in most cases, but if the process was
blocked waiting for a response from the primary (e.g., due to a network
failure), SIGUSR1 would not interrupt the wait. As a result, the process
could remain stuck, causing the startup process to wait for a long time
and delaying promotion.
This commit fixes the issue by introducing a new procsignal reason,
PROCSIG_SLOTSYNC_MESSAGE. On promotion, the startup process
sends this signal, and the handler sets interrupt flags so the process
exits (or errors out) promptly at CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(), allowing
promotion to complete without delay.
Backpatch to v17, where slotsync was introduced.

Add a new GUC max_repack_replication_slots, which lets the user reserve
some additional replication slots for concurrent repack (and only
concurrent repack). With this, the user doesn't have to worry about
changing the max_replication_slots in order to cater for use of
concurrent repack.
(We still use the same pool of bgworkers though, but that's less
commonly a problem than slots.)

When a backend is terminated via pg_terminate_backend() or an external
SIGTERM, the error message now includes the sender's PID and UID as
errdetail, making it easier to identify the source of unexpected
terminations in multi-user environments.
On platforms that support SA_SIGINFO (Linux, FreeBSD, and most modern
Unix systems), the signal handler captures si_pid and si_uid from the
siginfo_t structure. On platforms without SA_SIGINFO, the detail is
simply omitted.

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e48
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.
This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.
There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

By default, the logical decoding assumes access to shared catalogs, so
the snapshot builder needs to consider cluster-wide XIDs during startup.
That in turn means that, if any transaction is already running (and has
XID assigned), the snapshot builder needs to wait for its completion, as
it does not know if that transaction performed catalog changes earlier.
A possible problem with this concept is that if REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) is
running in some database, backends running the same command in other
databases get stuck until the first one has committed. Thus only a
single backend in the cluster can run REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) at any time.
Likewise, REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) can block walsenders starting on behalf
of subscriptions throughout the cluster.
This patch adds a new option to logical replication output plugin, to
declare that it does not use shared catalogs (i.e. catalogs that can be
changed by transactions running in other databases in the cluster). In
that case, no snapshot the backend will use during the decoding needs to
contain information about transactions running in other databases. Thus
the snapshot builder only needs to wait for completion of transactions
in the current database.
Currently we only use this option in the REPACK background worker. It
could possibly be used in the plugin for logical replication too,
however that would need thorough analysis of that plugin.

When this flag is specified, REPACK no longer acquires access-exclusive
lock while the new copy of the table is being created; instead, it
creates the initial copy under share-update-exclusive lock only (same as
vacuum, etc), and it follows an MVCC snapshot; it sets up a replication
slot starting at that snapshot, and uses a concurrent background worker
to do logical decoding starting at the snapshot to populate a stash of
concurrent data changes. Those changes can then be re-applied to the
new copy of the table just before swapping the relfilenodes.
Applications can continue to access the original copy of the table
normally until just before the swap, which is the only point at which
the access-exclusive lock is needed.
There are some loose ends in this commit:
1. concurrent repack needs its own replication slot in order to apply
logical decoding, which are a scarce resource and easy to run out of.
2. due to the way the historic snapshot is initially set up, only one
REPACK process can be running at any one time on the whole system.
3. there's a danger of deadlocking (and thus abort) due to the lock
upgrade required at the final phase.
These issues will be addressed in upcoming commits.
The design and most of the code are by Antonin Houska, heavily based on
his own pg_squeeze third-party implementation.

Previously, during shutdown, walsenders always waited until all pending data
was replicated to receivers. This ensures sender and receiver stay in sync
after shutdown, which is important for physical replication switchovers,
but it can significantly delay shutdown. For example, in logical replication,
if apply workers are blocked on locks, walsenders may wait until those locks
are released, preventing shutdown from completing for a long time.
This commit introduces a new GUC, wal_sender_shutdown_timeout,
which specifies the maximum time a walsender waits during shutdown for all
pending data to be replicated. When set, shutdown completes once all data is
replicated or the timeout expires. A value of -1 (the default) disables
the timeout.
This can reduce shutdown time when replication is slow or stalled. However,
if the timeout is reached, the sender and receiver may be left out of sync,
which can be problematic for physical replication switchovers.

This allows data checksums to be enabled, or disabled, in a running
cluster without restricting access to the cluster during processing.
Data checksums could prior to this only be enabled during initdb or
when the cluster is offline using the pg_checksums app. This commit
introduce functionality to enable, or disable, data checksums while
the cluster is running regardless of how it was initialized.
A background worker launcher process is responsible for launching a
dynamic per-database background worker which will mark all buffers
dirty for all relation with storage in order for them to have data
checksums calculated on write. Once all relations in all databases
have been processed, the data_checksums state will be set to on and
the cluster will at that point be identical to one which had data
checksums enabled during initialization or via offline processing.
When data checksums are being enabled, concurrent I/O operations
from backends other than the data checksums worker will write the
checksums but not verify them on reading. Only when all backends
have absorbed the procsignalbarrier for setting data_checksums to
on will they also start verifying checksums on reading. The same
process is repeated during disabling; all backends write checksums
but do not verify them until the barrier for setting the state to
off has been absorbed by all. This in-progress state is used to
ensure there are no false negatives (or positives) due to reading
a checksum which is not in sync with the page.
A new testmodule, test_checksums, is introduced with an extensive
set of tests covering both online and offline data checksum mode
changes. The tests which run concurrent pgbdench during online
processing are gated behind the PG_TEST_EXTRA flag due to being
very expensive to run. Two levels of PG_TEST_EXTRA flags exist
to turn on a subset of the expensive tests, or the full suite of
multiple runs.

When a tablesync worker checks whether a specific table is published,
it previously issued a query to the publisher calling
pg_get_publication_tables() and filtering the result by relid via a
WHERE clause. Because the function itself was fully evaluated before
the filter was applied, this forced the publisher to enumerate all
tables in the publication. For publications covering a large number of
tables, this resulted in expensive catalog scans and unnecessary CPU
overhead on the publisher.
This commit adds a new overloaded form of pg_get_publication_tables()
that accepts an array of publication names and a target table
OID. Instead of enumerating all published tables, it evaluates
membership for the specified relation via syscache lookups, using the
new is_table_publishable_in_publication() helper. This helper
correctly accounts for publish_via_partition_root, ALL TABLES with
EXCEPT clauses, schema publications, and partition inheritance, while
avoiding the overhead of building the complete published table list.
The existing VARIADIC array form of pg_get_publication_tables() is
preserved for backward compatibility. Tablesync workers use the new
two-argument form when connected to a publisher running PostgreSQL 19
or later.
Bump catalog version.

Previously some logical decoding messages (e.g., "logical decoding found
consistent point") were logged at level LOG, even though they provided
low-level, developer-oriented information that DBAs were typically not
interested in.
Since these messages can occur routinely (for example, when keeping calling
pg_logical_slot_get_changes() to obtain the changes from logical decoding),
logging them at LOG can be overly verbose.
This commit reduces their log level to DEBUG1 to avoid unnecessary log noise.
This change applies to a small set of messages for now. Additional messages
may be adjusted similarly in the future.
Even with this change, if these messages from walsender still need to be
observed, enabling DEBUG1 logging selectively for walsender (e.g.,
log_min_messages = 'warning,walsender:debug1') would be helpful to avoid
increasing overall log volume.

Commit 2252fcd427 modified some function prototypes in tableam.h
and heapam.h to take a VacuumParams argument instead of a pointer,
which required including vacuum.h in those headers. vacuum.h has a
reasonably large dependency tree, and headers like tableam.h are
widely included, so this is not ideal. To fix, change the
functions in question to accept a "const VacuumParams *" argument
instead. That allows us to use a forward declaration for
VacuumParams and avoid including vacuum.h. Since vacuum_rel()
needs to scribble on the params argument, we still pass it by value
to that function so that the original struct is not modified.

Previously, when the startup process applied WAL and requested walreceiver
to send an apply notification to the primary, walreceiver sent a status reply
unconditionally, even if the WAL locations had not advanced since
the previous update.
As a result, the standby could send two consecutive status reply messages
with identical WAL locations even though wal_receiver_status_interval had
not yet elapsed. This could unexpectedly reset the reported replication lag,
making it difficult for users to monitor lag. The second message was also
unnecessary because it reported no progress.

pg_stat_replication is documented to keep the last measured lag values for
a short time after the standby catches up, and then set them to NULL when
there is no WAL activity. However, previously lag values could become NULL
prematurely even while WAL activity was ongoing, especially in logical
replication.
This happened because the code cleared lag when two consecutive reply messages
indicated that the apply location had caught up with the send location.
It did not verify that the reported positions were unchanged, so lag could be
cleared even when positions had advanced between messages. In logical
replication, where the apply location often quickly catches up, this issue was
more likely to occur.
This commit fixes the issue by clearing lag only when the standby reports that
it has fully replayed WAL (i.e., both flush and apply locations have caught up
with the send location) and the write/flush/apply positions remain unchanged
across two consecutive reply messages.
The second message with unchanged positions typically results from
wal_receiver_status_interval, so lag values are cleared after that interval
when there is no activity. This avoids showing stale lag data while preventing
premature NULL values.
Even with this fix, lag may rarely become NULL during activity if identical
position reports are sent repeatedly. Eliminating such duplicate messages
would address this fully, but that change is considered too invasive for stable
branches and will be handled in master only later.

This commit includes various optimizations to improve the performance of
tuple deformation.
We now precalculate CompactAttribute's attcacheoff, which allows us to
remove the code from the deform routines which was setting the
attcacheoff. Setting the attcacheoff is now handled by
TupleDescFinalize(), which must be called before the TupleDesc is used for
anything. Having TupleDescFinalize() means we can store the first
attribute in the TupleDesc which does not have an offset cached. That
allows us to add a dedicated deforming loop to deform all attributes up
to the final one with an attcacheoff set, or up to the first NULL
attribute, whichever comes first.
Here we also improve tuple deformation performance of tuples with NULLs.
Previously, if the HEAP_HASNULL bit was set in the tuple's t_infomask,
deforming would, one-by-one, check each and every bit in the NULL bitmap
to see if it was zero. Now, we process the NULL bitmap 1 byte at a time
rather than 1 bit at a time to find the attnum with the first NULL. We
can now deform the tuple without checking for NULLs up to just before that
attribute.
We also record the maximum attribute number which is guaranteed to exist
in the tuple, that is, has a NOT NULL constraint and isn't an
atthasmissing attribute. When deforming only attributes prior to the
guaranteed attnum, we've no need to access the tuple's natt count. As an
additional optimization, we only count fixed-width columns when
calculating the maximum guaranteed column, as this eliminates the need to
emit code to fetch byref types in the deformation loop for guaranteed
attributes.
Some locations in the code deform tuples that have yet to go through NOT
NULL constraint validation. We're unable to perform the guaranteed
attribute optimization when that's the case. This optimization is opt-in
via the TupleTableSlot using the TTS_FLAG_OBEYS_NOT_NULL_CONSTRAINTS
flag.
This commit also adds a more efficient way of populating the isnull
array by using a bit-wise SWAR trick which performs multiplication on the
inverse of the tuple's bitmap byte and masking out all but the lower bit
of each of the boolean's byte. This results in much more optimal code
when compared to determining the NULLness via att_isnull(). 8 isnull
elements are processed at once using this method, which means we need to
round the tts_isnull array size up to the next 8 bytes. The palloc code
does this anyway, but the round-up needed to be formalized so as not to
overwrite the sentinel byte in MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING builds. Doing
this also allows the NULL-checking deforming loop to more efficiently
check the isnull array, rather than doing the bit-wise processing for each
attribute that att_isnull() does.
The level of performance improvement from these changes seems to vary
depending on the CPU architecture. Apple's M chips seem particularly
fond of the changes, with some of the tested deform-heavy queries going
over twice as fast as before. With x86-64, the speedups aren't quite as
large. With tables containing only a small number of columns, the
speedups will be less.

to make the change more obvious. Any extension which makes its own
TupleDesc will need to be modified to call the new function.
The follow-up commit which properly implements TupleDescFinalize() will
cause any code which forgets to do this to fail in assert-enabled builds in
BlessTupleDesc(). It may still be worth mentioning this change in the
release notes so that extension authors update their code.

The idea is to encourage the use of newer routines across the tree, as
these offer stronger type-safety guarantees than raw palloc().
Similar work has been done in commits 1b105f9472, 0c3c5c3b06,
31d3847a37, and 4f7dacc5b8. This commit extends those changes to

Allow CREATE SUBSCRIPTION to accept a foreign server using the SERVER

* Enables a user with sufficient privileges to create a subscription
using a foreign server by name without specifying the connection
details.
* Integrates with user mappings (and other FDW infrastructure) using
the subscription owner.
* Provides a layer of indirection to manage multiple subscriptions
to the same remote server more easily.
Also add CREATE FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER ... CONNECTION clause to specify
a connection_function. To be eligible for a subscription, the foreign
server's foreign data wrapper must specify a connection_function.
Add connection_function support to postgres_fdw, and bump postgres_fdw

wait_event.h itself includes wait_event_types.h, which is a generated
file, so it's nice that we can avoid compiling >10% of the tree just
because that file is regenerated.
To avoid breaking too many third-party modules, we now #include
utils/wait_classes.h in storage/latch.h. Then, the very common case
of doing
WaitLatch(..., PG_WAIT_EXTENSION)
continues to work by including just storage/latch.h. (I didn't try to
determine how many modules would actually break if we don't do this, but
this seems a convenient and low-impact measure.)

Previously, when logical replication was running, shutting down
the publisher could cause the logical walsender to enter a busy loop
and prevent the publisher from completing shutdown.
During shutdown, the logical walsender waits for all pending WAL
to be written out. However, some WAL records could remain unflushed,
causing the walsender to wait indefinitely.
The issue occurred because the walsender used XLogBackgroundFlush() to
flush pending WAL. This function does not guarantee that all WAL is written.
For example, WAL generated by a transaction without an assigned
transaction ID that aborts might not be flushed.
This commit fixes the bug by making the logical walsender call XLogFlush()
instead, ensuring that all pending WAL is written and preventing
the busy loop during shutdown.
Backpatch to all supported versions.

The commit 0d2d4a0ec3 allowed pg_sync_replication_slots() to retry sync
attempts, but missed a case, when WAL prior to a slot's
confirmed_flush_lsn is not yet flushed locally.
By changing the elevel from ERROR to LOG, we allow the sync loop to
continue. This provides the opportunity for the slot to be synchronized
once the standby catches up with the necessary WAL.

Extend CREATE PUBLICATION ... FOR ALL TABLES to support the EXCEPT TABLE
syntax. This allows one or more tables to be excluded. The publisher will
not send the data of excluded tables to the subscriber.
To support this, pg_publication_rel now includes a prexcept column to flag
excluded relations. For partitioned tables, the exclusion is applied at
the root level; specifying a root table excludes all current and future
partitions in that tree.
Follow-up work will implement ALTER PUBLICATION support for managing these
exclusions.

This commit allows setting wal_receiver_timeout per subscription
using the CREATE SUBSCRIPTION and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION commands.
The value is stored in the subwalrcvtimeout column of the pg_subscription
catalog.
When set, this value overrides the global wal_receiver_timeout for
the subscription's apply worker. The default is -1, which means the
global setting (from the server configuration, command line, role,
or database) remains in effect.
This feature is useful for configuring different timeout values for
each subscription, especially when connecting to multiple publisher
servers, to improve failure detection.

Instead of using comments to mark fallthrough switch cases, use the
fallthrough attribute. This will (in the future, not here) allow
supporting other compilers besides gcc. The commenting convention is
only supported by gcc, the attribute is supported by clang, and in the
fullness of time the C23 standard attribute would allow supporting
other compilers as well.
Right now, we package the attribute into a macro called
pg_fallthrough. This commit defines that macro and replaces the
existing comments with that macro invocation.
We also raise the level of the gcc -Wimplicit-fallthrough= option from
3 to 5 to enforce the use of the attribute.

The previous default bgworker_die() signal would exit with elog(FATAL)
directly from the signal handler. That could cause deadlocks or
crashes if the signal handler runs while we're e.g holding a spinlock
or in the middle of a memory allocation.
All the built-in background workers overrode that to use the normal
die() handler and CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(). Let's make that the default
for all background workers. Some extensions relying on the old
behavior might need to adapt, but the new default is much safer and is
the right thing to do for most background workers.

The main purpose of this change is to allow an ABI checker to understand
when the list of SysCacheIdentifier changes, by switching all the
routine declarations that relied on a signed integer for a syscache ID
to this new type. This is going to be useful in the long-term for
versions newer than v19 so as we will be able to check when the list of
values in SysCacheIdentifier is updated in a non-ABI compliant fashion.
Most of the changes of this commit are due to the new definition of
SyscacheCallbackFunction, where a SysCacheIdentifier is now required for
the syscache ID. It is a mechanical change, still slightly invasive.
There are more areas in the tree that could be improved with an ABI
checker in mind; this takes care of only one area.

Following e68b6adad9, the reason for skipping slot synchronization is
stored as a slot property. This commit removes redundant function
parameters that previously tracked this state, instead relying directly on
the slot property.
Additionally, this change centralizes the logic for skipping
synchronization when required WAL has not yet been received or flushed. By
consolidating this check, we reduce code duplication and the risk of
inconsistent state updates across different code paths.
In passing, add an assertion to ensure a slot is marked as temporary if a
consistent point has not been reached during synchronization.

This commit changes the definition of varlena to a typedef, so as it
becomes possible to remove "struct" markers from various declarations in
the code base. Historically, "struct" markers are not the project style
for variable declarations, so this update simplifies the code and makes
it more consistent across the board.
This change has an impact on the following structures, simplifying
declarations using them:
- varlena
- varatt_indirect
- varatt_external
This cleanup has come up in a different path set that played with
TOAST and varatt.h, independently worth doing on its own.

Commit 29d0a77fa6 improved pg_upgrade to allow migrating logical slots
provided that all logical slots have caught up (i.e., they have no
pending decodable WAL records). Previously, this verification was done
by checking each slot individually, which could be time-consuming if
there were many logical slots to migrate.
This commit optimizes the check to avoid reading the same WAL stream
multiple times. It performs the check only for the slot with the
minimum confirmed_flush_lsn and applies the result to all other slots
in the same database. This limits the check to at most one logical
slot per database.
During the check, we identify the last decodable WAL record's LSN to
report any slots with unconsumed records, consistent with the existing
error reporting behavior. Additionally, the maximum
confirmed_flush_lsn among all logical slots on the database is used as
an early scan cutoff; finding a decodable WAL record beyond this point
implies that no slot has caught up.
Performance testing demonstrated that the execution time remains
stable regardless of the number of slots in the database.
Note that we do not distinguish slots based on their output plugins. A
hypothetical plugin might use a replication origin filter that filters
out changes from a specific origin. In such cases, we might get a
false positive (erroneously considering a slot caught up). However,
this is safe from a data integrity standpoint, such scenarios are
rare, and the impact of a false positive is minimal.
This optimization is applied only when the old cluster is version 19
or later.

Instead of assigning the backend type in the Main function of each
postmaster child, do it right after fork(), by which time it is already
known by postmaster_child_launch(). This reduces the time frame during
which MyBackendType is incorrect.
Before this commit, ProcessStartupPacket would overwrite MyBackendType
to B_BACKEND for dead-end backends, which is quite dubious. Stop that.
We may now see MyBackendType == B_BG_WORKER before setting up
MyBgworkerEntry. As far as I can see this is only a problem if we try
to log a message and %b is in log_line_prefix, so we now have a constant
string to cover that case. Previously, it would print "unrecognized",
which seems strictly worse.

Previously, when synchronous_standby_names was changed (for example,
by reducing the number of required synchronous standbys or modifying
the standby list), backends waiting for synchronous replication were not
released immediately, even if the new configuration no longer required them
to wait. They could remain blocked until additional messages arrived from
standbys and triggered their release.
This commit improves walsender so that backends waiting for synchronous
replication are released as soon as the updated configuration takes effect and
the new settings no longer require them to wait, by calling
SyncRepReleaseWaiters() when configuration changes are processed.
As part of this change, the duplicated code that handles configuration changes
in walsender has been refactored into a new helper function, which is now used
at the three existing call places.
Since this is an improvement rather than a bug fix, it is applied only to
the master branch.
