Common recommendations are that the checkpoint should be spread out as
much as possible, provided we avoid having it take too long. This
change updates the default to 0.9 (from 0.5) to match that
recommendation.
There was some debate about possibly removing the option entirely but it
seems there may be some corner-cases where having it set much lower to
try to force the checkpoint to be as fast as possible could result in
fewer periods of time of reduced performance due to kernel flushing.
General agreement is that the "spread more" is the preferred approach
though and those who need to tune away from that value are much less
common.

Change the default_toast_compression GUC to be an enum rather than
a string. Earlier, uncommitted versions of the patch supported using
CREATE ACCESS METHOD to add new compression methods to a running
system, but that idea was dropped before commit. So, we can simplify
the GUC handling as well, which has the nice side effect of improving
the error messages.
While updating the documentation to reflect the new GUC type, also
move it back to the right place in the list. I moved this while
revising what became commit 24f0e395ac,
but apparently the intended ordering is "alphabetical" rather than
"whatever Robert thinks looks nice."
Rejigger things to avoid having access/toast_compression.h depend on
utils/guc.h, so that we don't end up with every file that includes
it also depending on something largely unrelated. Move a few
inline functions back into the C source file partly to help reduce
dependencies and partly just to avoid clutter. A few very minor
cosmetic fixes.

To allow inserts in parallel-mode this feature has to ensure that all the
constraints, triggers, etc. are parallel-safe for the partition hierarchy

end_heap_rewrite was not careful to ensure that the target relation
is open at the smgr level before performing its final smgrimmedsync.
In ordinary cases this is no problem, because it would have been
opened earlier during the rewrite. However a crash can be reproduced
by re-clustering an empty table with CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS enabled.
Although that exact scenario does not crash in v13, I think that's
a chance result of unrelated planner changes, and the problem is
likely still reachable with other test cases. The true proximate
cause of this failure is commit c6b92041d, which replaced a call to
heap_sync (which was careful about opening smgr) with a direct call
to smgrimmedsync. Hence, back-patch to v13.

The TAP tests of kerberos rely on the logs generated by the backend to
check various connection scenarios. In order to make sure that a given
test does not overlap with the log contents generated by a previous
test, the test suite relied on a logic with the logging collector and a
rotation of the log files to ensure the uniqueness of the log generated
with a wait phase.
Parsing the log contents for expected patterns is a problem that has
been solved in a simpler way by PostgresNode::issues_sql_like() where
the log file is truncated before checking for the contents generated,
with the backend sending its output to a log file given by pg_ctl
instead. This commit switches the kerberos test suite to use such a
method, removing any wait phase and simplifying the whole logic,
resulting in less code. If a failure happens in the tests, the contents
of the logs are still showed to the user at the moment of the failure
thanks to like(), so this has no impact on debugging capabilities.
I have bumped into this issue while reviewing a different patch set
aiming at extending the kerberos test suite to check for multiple
log patterns instead of one now.

Any transactions found as still prepared by a checkpoint have their
state data read from the WAL records generated by PREPARE TRANSACTION
before being moved into their new location within pg_twophase/. While
reading such records, the WAL reader uses the callback
read_local_xlog_page() to read a page, that is shared across various
parts of the system. This callback, since 1148e22a, has introduced an
update of ThisTimeLineID when reading a record while in recovery, which
is potentially helpful in the context of cascading WAL senders.
This update of ThisTimeLineID interacts badly with the checkpointer if a
promotion happens while some 2PC data is read from its record, as, by
changing ThisTimeLineID, any follow-up WAL records would be written to
an timeline older than the promoted one. This results in consistency
issues. For instance, a subsequent server restart would cause a failure
in finding a valid checkpoint record, resulting in a PANIC, for
instance.
This commit changes the code reading the 2PC data to reset the timeline
once the 2PC record has been read, to prevent messing up with the static
state of the checkpointer. It would be tempting to do the same thing
directly in read_local_xlog_page(). However, based on the discussion
that has led to 1148e22a, users may rely on the updates of
ThisTimeLineID when a WAL record page is read in recovery, so changing
this callback could break some cases that are working currently.
A TAP test reproducing the issue is added, relying on a PITR to
precisely trigger a promotion with a prepared transaction still
tracked.

Compilers that don't understand that elog(ERROR) doesn't return
issued warnings here. In the cases in libpq_pipeline.c, we were
not exactly helping things by failing to mark pg_fatal() as noreturn.
Per buildfarm.
There is now a per-column COMPRESSION option which can be set to pglz
(the default, and the only option in up until now) or lz4. Or, if you
like, you can set the new default_toast_compression GUC to lz4, and
then that will be the default for new table columns for which no value
is specified. We don't have lz4 support in the PostgreSQL code, so
to use lz4 compression, PostgreSQL must be built --with-lz4.
In general, TOAST compression means compression of individual column
values, not the whole tuple, and those values can either be compressed
inline within the tuple or compressed and then stored externally in
the TOAST table, so those properties also apply to this feature.
Prior to this commit, a TOAST pointer has two unused bits as part of
the va_extsize field, and a compessed datum has two unused bits as
part of the va_rawsize field. These bits are unused because the length
of a varlena is limited to 1GB; we now use them to indicate the
compression type that was used. This means we only have bit space for
2 more built-in compresison types, but we could work around that
problem, if necessary, by introducing a new vartag_external value for
any further types we end up wanting to add. Hopefully, it won't be
too important to offer a wide selection of algorithms here, since
each one we add not only takes more coding but also adds a build
dependency for every packager. Nevertheless, it seems worth doing
at least this much, because LZ4 gets better compression than PGLZ
with less CPU usage.
It's possible for LZ4-compressed datums to leak into composite type
values stored on disk, just as it is for PGLZ. It's also possible for
LZ4-compressed attributes to be copied into a different table via SQL
commands such as CREATE TABLE AS or INSERT .. SELECT. It would be
expensive to force such values to be decompressed, so PostgreSQL has
never done so. For the same reasons, we also don't force recompression
of already-compressed values even if the target table prefers a
different compression method than was used for the source data. These
architectural decisions are perhaps arguable but revisiting them is
well beyond the scope of what seemed possible to do as part of this
project. However, it's relatively cheap to recompress as part of
VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER, so this commit adjusts those commands to do
so, if the configured compression method of the table happens not to
match what was used for some column value stored therein.

The TAP test was written so that it was not waiting for the correct SQL
command, but for output from the preceding one. This resulted in race
conditions, allowing the commands to run in a different order, not block
as expected and so on. This fixes it by inverting the order of commands
where possible, so that observing the output guarantees the data was
inserted properly, and waiting for a lock to appear in pg_locks.

The test included in cd91de0d17 had two simple flaws.
Firstly, the number of rows was low and on some platforms (e.g. 32-bit)
the sort did not require on-disk sort, so on those machines it was not
testing the automatic removal. The test was however failing, because
without any temporary files the base/pgsql_tmp directory was not even
created. Fixed by increasing the rowcount to 5000, which should be high
engough on any platform.
Secondly, the test used a simple sleep to wait for the temporary file to
be created. This is obviously problematic, because on slow machines (or
with valgrind, CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS etc.) it may take a while to create
the temporary file. But we also want the tests run reasonably fast.
Fixed by instead relying on a UNIQUE constraint, blocking the query that
created the temporary file.

duplicate. This is especially common with CUBE and ROLLUP clauses. For

After a crash of a backend using temporary files, the files used to be
left behind, on the basis that it might be useful for debugging. But we
don't have any reports of anyone actually doing that, and it means the
disk usage may grow over time due to repeated backend failures (possibly
even hitting ENOSPC). So this behavior is a bit unfortunate, and fixing
it required either manual cleanup (deleting files, which is error-prone)
or restart of the instance (i.e. service disruption).
This implements automatic cleanup of temporary files, controled by a new
GUC remove_temp_files_after_crash. By default the files are removed, but

Commit 05c8482f7f added the implementation of parallel SELECT for
"INSERT INTO ... SELECT ..." which may incur non-negligible overhead in
the additional parallel-safety checks that it performs, even when, in the
end, those checks determine that parallelism can't be used. This is
normally only ever a problem in the case of when the target table has a
large number of partitions.
A new GUC option "enable_parallel_insert" is added, to allow insert in
parallel-mode. The default is on.
In addition to the GUC option, the user may want a mechanism to allow
inserts in parallel-mode with finer granularity at table level. The new
table option "parallel_insert_enabled" allows this. The default is true.

The existing test script does run pg_basebackup with the -Ft option,
but it makes no real attempt to verify the sanity of the results.
We wouldn't know if the output is incompatible with standard "tar"
programs, nor if the server fails to start from the restored output.
Notably, this means that xlog.c's read_tablespace_map() is not being
meaningfully tested, since that code is used only in the tar-format
case. (We do have reasonable coverage of restoring from plain-format
output, though it's over in src/test/recovery not here.)
Hence, attempt to untar the output and start a server from it,
rather just hoping it's OK.
This test assumes that the local "tar" has the "-C directory"
switch. Although that's not promised by POSIX, my research
suggests that all non-extinct tar implementations have it.
Should the buildfarm's opinion differ, we can complicate the
test a bit to avoid requiring that.
Possibly this should be back-patched, but I'm unsure about
whether it could work on Windows before d66b23b03.
It seems like a useful sanity check to be able to run "installcheck"
against a cluster running with default_transaction_level set to
serializable or repeatable read. Only one thing currently fails in
those configurations, so let's fix that.
No back-patch for now, because it fails in many other places in some of

Remove the entire idea of "stale stats" within nbtree VACUUM (stop
caring about stats involving the number of inserted tuples). Also
remove the vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor GUC/param on the master
branch (though just disable them on postgres 13).
The vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor/stats interface made the nbtree AM
partially responsible for deciding when pg_class.reltuples stats needed
to be updated. This seems contrary to the spirit of the index AM API,
though -- it is not actually necessary for an index AM's bulk delete and
cleanup callbacks to provide accurate stats when it happens to be
inconvenient. The core code owns that. (Index AMs have the authority
to perform or not perform certain kinds of deferred cleanup based on
their own considerations, such as page deletion and recycling, but that
has little to do with pg_class.reltuples/num_index_tuples.)
This issue was fairly harmless until the introduction of the
autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold feature by commit b07642db, which had
an undesirable interaction with the vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor
mechanism: it made insert-driven autovacuums perform full index scans,
even though there is no real benefit to doing so. This has been tied to
a regression with an append-only insert benchmark [1].
Also have remaining cases that perform a full scan of an index during a
cleanup-only nbtree VACUUM indicate that the final tuple count is only
an estimate. This prevents vacuumlazy.c from setting the index's
pg_class.reltuples in those cases (it will now only update pg_class when
vacuumlazy.c had TIDs for nbtree to bulk delete). This arguably fixes
an oversight in deduplication-related bugfix commit 48e12913.

Backpatch: 13-, where autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold was added.
When a foreign key constraint is applied to a partitioned table, each
leaf partition inherits a similar FK constraint. We were processing all
of those constraints independently, meaning that in large partitioning
trees we'd build up large collections of cached FK-checking query plans.
However, in all cases but one, the generated queries are actually
identical for all members of the inheritance tree (because, in most
cases, the query only mentions the topmost table of the other side of
the FK relationship). So we can share a single cached plan among all
the partitions, saving memory, not to mention time to build and maintain
the cached plans.

trigger the makefile rule that cleaned up testtablespace/ under

no need to do so as it uses a different tablespace path. So if
pg_upgrade triggered the makefile rule for the tablespace setup while

Parallel SELECT can't be utilized for INSERT in the following cases:
- INSERT statement uses the ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE clause
- Target table has a parallel-unsafe: trigger, index expression or
predicate, column default expression or check constraint
- Target table has a parallel-unsafe domain constraint on any column
- Target table is a partitioned table with a parallel-unsafe partition key
expression or support function
The planner is updated to perform additional parallel-safety checks for
the cases listed above, for determining whether it is safe to run INSERT
in parallel-mode with an underlying parallel SELECT. The planner will
consider using parallel SELECT for "INSERT INTO ... SELECT ...", provided
nothing unsafe is found from the additional parallel-safety checks, or
from the existing parallel-safety checks for SELECT.
While checking parallel-safety, we need to check it for all the partitions
on the table which can be costly especially when we decide not to use a
parallel plan. So, in a separate patch, we will introduce a GUC and or a
reloption to enable/disable parallelism for Insert statements.
Prior to entering parallel-mode for the execution of INSERT with parallel
SELECT, a TransactionId is acquired and assigned to the current
transaction state. This is necessary to prevent the INSERT from attempting
to assign the TransactionId whilst in parallel-mode, which is not allowed.
This approach has a disadvantage in that if the underlying SELECT does not
return any rows, then the TransactionId is not used, however that
shouldn't happen in practice in many cases.

The authtype parameter was deprecated and made inactive in commit
d5bbe2aca5, but the environment variable was left defined and thus
tested with a getenv call even though the value is of no use. Also,
if it would exist it would be copied but never freed as the cleanup

This commit adds new GUC track_wal_io_timing. When this is enabled,
the total amounts of time XLogWrite writes and issue_xlog_fsync syncs
WAL data to disk are counted in pg_stat_wal. This information would be
useful to check how much WAL write and sync affect the performance.
Enabling track_wal_io_timing will make the server query the operating
system for the current time every time WAL is written or synced,
which may cause significant overhead on some platforms. To avoid such
additional overhead in the server with track_io_timing enabled,
this commit introduces track_wal_io_timing as a separate parameter from
track_io_timing.
Note that WAL write and sync activity by walreceiver has not been tracked yet.
This commit makes the server also track the numbers of times XLogWrite
writes and issue_xlog_fsync syncs WAL data to disk, in pg_stat_wal,
regardless of the setting of track_wal_io_timing. This counters can be
used to calculate the WAL write and sync time per request, for example.

PostgreSQL disabled compression as of e3bdb2d and the documentation
recommends against using it since. Additionally, SSL compression has
been disabled in OpenSSL since version 1.1.0, and was disabled in many
distributions long before that. The most recent TLS version, TLSv1.3,
disallows compression at the protocol level.
This commit removes the feature itself, removing support for the libpq
parameter sslcompression (parameter still listed for compatibility
reasons with existing connection strings, just ignored), and removes
the equivalent field in pg_stat_ssl and de facto PgBackendSSLStatus.
Note that, on top of removing the ability to activate compression by
configuration, compression is actively disabled in both frontend and
backend to avoid overrides from local configurations.

In addition to the existing options of "any" and "read-write", we
now support "read-only", "primary", "standby", and "prefer-standby".
"read-write" retains its previous meaning of "transactions are
read-write by default", and "read-only" inverts that. The other
three modes test specifically for hot-standby status, which is not
quite the same thing. (Setting default_transaction_read_only on
a primary server renders it read-only to this logic, but not a
standby.)
Furthermore, if talking to a v14 or later server, no extra network
round trip is needed to detect the session's status; the GUC_REPORT
variables delivered by the server are enough. When talking to an
older server, a SHOW or SELECT query is issued to detect session
read-only-ness or server hot-standby state, as needed.

POSIX defines the behavior of back-references thus:
The back-reference expression '\n' shall match the same (possibly
empty) string of characters as was matched by a subexpression
enclosed between "\(" and "\)" preceding the '\n'.
As far as I can see, the back-reference is supposed to consider only
the data characters matched by the referenced subexpression. However,
because our engine copies the NFA constructed from the referenced
subexpression, it effectively enforces any constraints therein, too.
As an example, '(^.)\1' ought to match 'xx', or any other string
starting with two occurrences of the same character; but in our code
it does not, and indeed can't match anything, because the '^' anchor
constraint is included in the backref's copied NFA. If POSIX intended
that, you'd think they'd mention it. Perl for one doesn't act that
way, so it's hard to conclude that this isn't a bug.
Fix by modifying the backref's NFA immediately after it's copied from
the reference, replacing all constraint arcs by EMPTY arcs so that the
constraints are treated as automatically satisfied. This still allows
us to enforce matching rules that depend only on the data characters;
for example, in '(^\d+).*\1' the NFA matching step will still know
that the backref can only match strings of digits.
Perhaps surprisingly, this change does not affect the results of any
of a rather large corpus of real-world regexes. Nonetheless, I would
not consider back-patching it, since it's a clear compatibility break.

Newline is certainly not a digit, nor a word character, so it is
sensible that it should match these complemented character classes.
Previously, \D and \W acted that way by default, but in
newline-sensitive mode ('n' or 'p' flag) they did not match newlines.
This behavior was previously forced because explicit complemented
character classes don't match newlines in newline-sensitive mode;
but as of the previous commit that implementation constraint no
longer exists. It seems useful to change this because the primary
real-world use for newline-sensitive mode seems to be to match the
default behavior of other regex engines such as Perl and Javascript
... and their default behavior is that these match newlines.
The old behavior can be kept by writing an explicit complemented
character class, i.e. [^[:digit:]] or [^[:word:]]. (This means
that \D and \W are not exactly equivalent to those strings, but
they weren't anyway.)
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3220564.1613859619@sss.pgh.pa.us
The complement-class escapes \D, \S, \W are now allowed within
bracket expressions. There is no semantic difficulty with doing
that, but the rather hokey macro-expansion-based implementation
previously used here couldn't cope.
Also, invent "word" as an allowed character class name, thus "\w"
is now equivalent to "[[:word:]]" outside brackets, or "[:word:]"
within brackets. POSIX allows such implementation-specific
extensions, and the same name is used in e.g. bash.
One surprising compatibility issue this raises is that constructs
such as "[\w-_]" are now disallowed, as our documentation has always
said they should be: character classes can't be endpoints of a range.
Previously, because \w was just a macro for "[:alnum:]_", such a
construct was read as "[[:alnum:]_-_]", so it was accepted so long as
the character after "-" was numerically greater than or equal to "_".
Some implementation cleanup along the way:
* Remove the lexnest() hack, and in consequence clean up wordchrs()
to not interact with the lexer.
* Fix colorcomplement() to not be O(N^2) in the number of colors
involved.
* Get rid of useless-as-far-as-I-can-see calls of element()
on single-character character element names in brackpart().
element() always maps these to the character itself, and things
would be quite broken if it didn't --- should "[a]" match something
different than "a" does? Besides, the shortcut path in brackpart()
wasn't doing this anyway, making it even more inconsistent.

While poking at the regex code, I happened to notice that the bug
squashed in commit afcc8772e had a sibling: next() failed to return
a specific value associated with the '}' token for a "\{m,n\}"
quantifier when parsing in basic RE mode. Again, this could result
in treating the quantifier as non-greedy, which it never should be in
basic mode. For that to happen, the last character before "\}" that
sets "nextvalue" would have to set it to zero, or it'd have to have
accidentally been zero from the start. The failure can be provoked
repeatably with, for example, a bound ending in digit "0".

Commit 2c8dd05d6c added the atomic variable writtenUpto into
walreceiver's shared memory information. It's initialized only
when walreceiver started up but could be read via pg_stat_wal_receiver
view anytime, i.e., even before it's initialized. In the server built
with --disable-atomics and --disable-spinlocks, this uninitialized
atomic variable read could cause "invalid spinlock number: 0" error.
This commit changed writtenUpto so that it's initialized at
the postmaster startup, to avoid the uninitialized variable read
via pg_stat_wal_receiver and fix the error.
Also this commit moved the read of writtenUpto after the release
of spinlock protecting walreceiver's shared variables. This is
necessary to prevent new spinlock from being taken by atomic
variable read while holding another spinlock, and to shorten
the spinlock duration. This change leads writtenUpto not to be
consistent with the other walreceiver's shared variables protected
by a spinlock. But this is OK because writtenUpto should not be
used for data integrity checks.

Push some hopefully-uncontroversial bits extracted from an upcoming
patch series, to remove non-relevant clutter from the main patches.
In compact(), return immediately after setting REG_ASSERT error;
continuing the loop would just lead to assertion failure below.
(Ask me how I know.)
In parseqatom(), remove assertion that moresubs() did its job.
When moresubs actually did its job, this is redundant with that
function's final assert; but when it failed on OOM, this is an
assertion crash. We could avoid the crash by adding a NOERR()
check before the assertion, but it seems better to subtract code
than add it. (Note that there's a NOERR exit a few lines further
down, and nothing else between here and there requires moresubs
to have succeeded. So we don't really need an extra error exit.)
This is a live bug in assert-enabled builds, but given the very
low likelihood of OOM in moresub's tiny allocation, I don't think
it's worth back-patching.
On the other hand, it seems worthwhile to add an assertion that
our intended v->subs[subno] target is still null by the time we
are ready to insert into it, since there's a recursion in between.
In pg_regexec, ensure we fflush any debug output on the way out,
and try to make MDEBUG messages more uniform and helpful. (In
particular, ensure that all of them are prefixed with the subre's
id number, so one can match up entry and exit reports.)
Add some test cases in test_regex to improve coverage of lookahead
and lookbehind constraints. Adding these now is mainly to establish
that this is indeed the existing behavior.

we reuse the already-obtained time to avoid that overhead.
Note that "waitstart" is updated without holding the lock table's

This can cause "waitstart" in pg_locks to become NULL for a very short

This is OK in practice because we can assume that users are likely to
look at "waitstart" when waiting for the lock for a long time.

For the initial table data synchronization in logical replication, we use
a single transaction to copy the entire table and then synchronize the
position in the stream with the main apply worker.
There are multiple downsides of this approach: (a) We have to perform the
entire copy operation again if there is any error (network breakdown,
error in the database operation, etc.) while we synchronize the WAL
position between tablesync worker and apply worker; this will be onerous
especially for large copies, (b) Using a single transaction in the
synchronization-phase (where we can receive WAL from multiple
transactions) will have the risk of exceeding the CID limit, (c) The slot
will hold the WAL till the entire sync is complete because we never commit
till the end.
This patch solves all the above downsides by allowing multiple
transactions during the tablesync phase. The initial copy is done in a
single transaction and after that, we commit each transaction as we
receive. To allow recovery after any error or crash, we use a permanent
slot and origin to track the progress. The slot and origin will be removed
once we finish the synchronization of the table. We also remove slot and
origin of tablesync workers if the user performs DROP SUBSCRIPTION .. or
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION .. REFERESH and some of the table syncs are still not
finished.
The commands ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... REFRESH PUBLICATION and
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... SET PUBLICATION ... with refresh option as true
cannot be executed inside a transaction block because they can now drop
the slots for which we have no provision to rollback.
This will also open up the path for logical replication of 2PC
transactions on the subscriber side. Previously, we can't do that because
of the requirement of maintaining a single transaction in tablesync
workers.

scanNSItemForColumn, expandNSItemAttrs, and ExpandSingleTable would
pass the wrong RTE to markVarForSelectPriv when dealing with a join
ParseNamespaceItem: they'd pass the join RTE, when what we need to
mark is the base table that the join column came from. The end
result was to not fill the base table's selectedCols bitmap correctly,
resulting in an understatement of the set of columns that are read
by the query. The executor would still insist on there being at
least one selectable column; but with a correctly crafted query,
a user having SELECT privilege on just one column of a table would
nonetheless be allowed to read all its columns.
To fix, make markRTEForSelectPriv fetch the correct RTE for itself,
ignoring the possibly-mismatched RTE passed by the caller. Later,
we'll get rid of some now-unused RTE arguments, but that risks
API breaks so we won't do it in released branches.
This problem was introduced by commit 9ce77d75c, so back-patch
to v13 where that came in. Thanks to Sven Klemm for reporting
the problem.
Security: CVE-2021-20229
If a cross-partition UPDATE violates a constraint on the target partition,
and the columns in the new partition are in different physical order than
in the parent, the error message can reveal columns that the user does not
have SELECT permission on. A similar bug was fixed earlier in commit
804b6b6db4.
The cause of the bug is that the callers of the
ExecBuildSlotValueDescription() function got confused when constructing
the list of modified columns. If the tuple was routed from a parent, we
converted the tuple to the parent's format, but the list of modified
columns was grabbed directly from the child's RTE entry.
ExecUpdateLockMode() had a similar issue. That lead to confusion on which
columns are key columns, leading to wrong tuple lock being taken on tables
referenced by foreign keys, when a row is updated with INSERT ON CONFLICT
UPDATE. A new isolation test is added for that corner case.
With this patch, the ri_RangeTableIndex field is no longer set for
partitions that don't have an entry in the range table. Previously, it was
set to the RTE entry of the parent relation, but that was confusing.
NOTE: This modifies the ResultRelInfo struct, replacing the
ri_PartitionRoot field with ri_RootResultRelInfo. That's a bit risky to
backpatch, because it breaks any extensions accessing the field. The
change that ri_RangeTableIndex is not set for partitions could potentially
break extensions, too. The ResultRelInfos are visible to FDWs at least,
and this patch required small changes to postgres_fdw. Nevertheless, this
seem like the least bad option. I don't think these fields widely used in
extensions; I don't think there are FDWs out there that uses the FDW
"direct update" API, other than postgres_fdw. If there is, you will get a
compilation error, so hopefully it is caught quickly.
Backpatch to 11, where support for both cross-partition UPDATEs, and unique
indexes on partitioned tables, were added.

rewriteRuleAction() neglected this step, although it was careful to
propagate other similar flags such as hasSubLinks or hasRowSecurity.
Omitting to transfer hasRecursive is just cosmetic at the moment,
but omitting hasModifyingCTE is a live bug, since the executor
certainly looks at that.
The proposed test case only fails back to v10, but since the executor
examines hasModifyingCTE in 9.x as well, I suspect that a test case

Generally, members of inheritance trees must be plain tables (or,
in more recent versions, foreign tables). ALTER TABLE INHERIT
rejects creating an inheritance relationship that has a view at
either end. When DefineQueryRewrite attempts to convert a relation
to a view, it already had checks prohibiting doing so for partitioning
parents or children as well as traditional-inheritance parents ...
but it neglected to check that a traditional-inheritance child wasn't
being converted. Since the planner assumes that any inheritance
child is a table, this led to making plans that tried to do a physical
scan on a view, causing failures (or even crashes, in recent versions).
One could imagine trying to support such a case by expanding the view
normally, but since the rewriter runs before the planner does
inheritance expansion, it would take some very fundamental refactoring
to make that possible. There are probably a lot of other parts of the
system that don't cope well with such a situation, too. For now,
just forbid it.
Per bug #16856 from Yang Lin. Back-patch to all supported branches.
(In versions before v10, this includes back-patching the portion of
commit 501ed02cf that added has_superclass(). Perhaps the lack of
that infrastructure partially explains the missing check.)

This patch adds the possibility to move indexes to a new tablespace
while rebuilding them. Both the concurrent and the non-concurrent cases
are supported, and the following set of restrictions apply:
- When using TABLESPACE with a REINDEX command that targets a
partitioned table or index, all the indexes of the leaf partitions are
moved to the new tablespace. The tablespace references of the non-leaf,
partitioned tables in pg_class.reltablespace are not changed. This
requires an extra ALTER TABLE SET TABLESPACE.
- Any index on a toast table rebuilt as part of a parent table is kept
in its original tablespace.
- The operation is forbidden on system catalogs, including trying to
directly move a toast relation with REINDEX. This results in an error
if doing REINDEX on a single object. REINDEX SCHEMA, DATABASE and
SYSTEM skip system relations when TABLESPACE is used.

This follows in the spirit of commit dfb75e478, which created primary
key and uniqueness constraints to improve the visibility of constraints
imposed on the system catalogs. While our catalogs contain many
foreign-key-like relationships, they don't quite follow SQL semantics,
in that the convention for an omitted reference is to write zero not
NULL. Plus, we have some cases in which there are arrays each of whose
elements is supposed to be an FK reference; SQL has no way to model that.
So we can't create actual foreign key constraints to describe the
situation. Nonetheless, we can collect and use knowledge about these
relationships.
This patch therefore adds annotations to the catalog header files to
declare foreign-key relationships. (The BKI_LOOKUP annotations cover
simple cases, but we weren't previously distinguishing which such
columns are allowed to contain zeroes; we also need new markings for
multi-column FK references.) Then, Catalog.pm and genbki.pl are
taught to collect this information into a table in a new generated
header "system_fk_info.h". The only user of that at the moment is
a new SQL function pg_get_catalog_foreign_keys(), which exposes the
table to SQL. The oidjoins regression test is rewritten to use
pg_get_catalog_foreign_keys() to find out which columns to check.
Aside from removing the need for manual maintenance of that test
script, this allows it to cover numerous relationships that were not
checked by the old implementation based on findoidjoins. (As of this
commit, 217 relationships are checked by the test, versus 181 before.)

When to_tsquery() or websearch_to_tsquery() meet a complex morph containing
multiple words residing adjacent position, these words are connected
with OP_AND operator. That leads to surprising results. For instace,
both websearch_to_tsquery('"pg_class pg"') and to_tsquery('pg_class <-> pg')
produce '( pg & class ) <-> pg' tsquery. This tsquery requires
'pg' and 'class' words to reside on the same position and doesn't match
to to_tsvector('pg_class pg'). It appears to be ridiculous behavior, which
needs to be fixed.
This commit makes to_tsquery() or websearch_to_tsquery() connect words
residing adjacent position with OP_PHRASE. Therefore, now those words are
normally chained with other OP_PHRASE operator. The examples of above now
produces 'pg <-> class <-> pg' tsquery, which matches to
to_tsvector('pg_class pg').
Another effect of this commit is that complex morph word positions now need to
match the tsvector even if there is no surrounding OP_PHRASE. This behavior
change generally looks like an improvement but making this commit not

perform_pruning_combine_step() was not taught about the number of
partition indexes used in hash partitioning; more embarrassingly,
get_matching_hash_bounds() also had it wrong. These errors are masked
in the common case where all the partitions have the same modulus
and no partition is missing. However, with missing or unequal-size
partitions, we could erroneously prune some partitions that need
to be scanned, leading to silently wrong query answers.
While a minimal-footprint fix for this could be to export
get_partition_bound_num_indexes and make the incorrect functions use it,
I'm of the opinion that that function should never have existed in the
first place. It's not reasonable data structure design that
PartitionBoundInfoData lacks any explicit record of the length of
its indexes[] array. Perhaps that was all right when it could always
be assumed equal to ndatums, but something should have been done about
it as soon as that stopped being true. Putting in an explicit
"nindexes" field makes both partition_bounds_equal() and
partition_bounds_copy() simpler, safer, and faster than before,
and removes explicit knowledge of the number-of-partition-indexes
rules from some other places too.
This change also makes get_hash_partition_greatest_modulus obsolete.
I left that in place in case any external code uses it, but no core
code does anymore.

Previously, pull_varnos() took the relids of a PlaceHolderVar as being
equal to the relids in its contents, but that fails to account for the
possibility that we have to postpone evaluation of the PHV due to outer
joins. This could result in a malformed plan. The known cases end up
triggering the "failed to assign all NestLoopParams to plan nodes"
sanity check in createplan.c, but other symptoms may be possible.
The right value to use is the join level we actually intend to evaluate
the PHV at. We can get that from the ph_eval_at field of the associated
PlaceHolderInfo. However, there are some places that call pull_varnos()
before the PlaceHolderInfos have been created; in that case, fall back
to the conservative assumption that the PHV will be evaluated at its
syntactic level. (In principle this might result in missing some legal
optimization, but I'm not aware of any cases where it's an issue in
practice.) Things are also a bit ticklish for calls occurring during
deconstruct_jointree(), but AFAICS the ph_eval_at fields should have
reached their final values by the time we need them.
The main problem in making this work is that pull_varnos() has no
way to get at the PlaceHolderInfos. We can fix that easily, if a
bit tediously, in HEAD by passing it the planner "root" pointer.
In the back branches that'd cause an unacceptable API/ABI break for
extensions, so leave the existing entry points alone and add new ones
with the additional parameter. (If an old entry point is called and
encounters a PHV, it'll fall back to using the syntactic level,
again possibly missing some valid optimization.)
Back-patch to v12. The computation is surely also wrong before that,
but it appears that we cannot reach a bad plan thanks to join order
restrictions imposed on the subquery that the PlaceHolderVar came from.
The error only became reachable when commit 4be058fe9 allowed trivial
subqueries to be collapsed out completely, eliminating their join order
restrictions.

When a tablespace is used in a partitioned relation (per commits
ca4103025d in pg12 for tables and 33e6c34c32 in pg11 for indexes),
it is possible to drop the tablespace, potentially causing various
problems. One such was reported in bug #16577, where a rewriting ALTER
TABLE causes a server crash.
Protect against this by using pg_shdepend to keep track of tablespaces
when used for relations that don't keep physical files; we now abort a
tablespace if we see that the tablespace is referenced from any
partitioned relations.
Backpatch this to 11, where this problem has been latent all along. We
don't try to create pg_shdepend entries for existing partitioned
indexes/tables, but any ones that are modified going forward will be
protected.
Note slight behavior change: when trying to drop a tablespace that
contains both regular tables as well as partitioned ones, you'd
previously get ERRCODE_OBJECT_NOT_IN_PREREQUISITE_STATE and now you'll
get ERRCODE_DEPENDENT_OBJECTS_STILL_EXIST. Arguably, the latter is more
correct.
It is possible to add protecting pg_shdepend entries for existing
tables/indexes, by doing
ALTER TABLE ONLY some_partitioned_table SET TABLESPACE pg_default;
ALTER TABLE ONLY some_partitioned_table SET TABLESPACE original_tablespace;
for each partitioned table/index that is not in the database default
tablespace. Because these partitioned objects do not have storage, no
file needs to be actually moved, so it shouldn't take more time than
what's required to acquire locks.
This query can be used to search for such relations:
SELECT ... FROM pg_class WHERE relkind IN ('p', 'I') AND reltablespace <> 0

Add an executor aminsert() hint mechanism that informs index AMs that
the incoming index tuple (the tuple that accompanies the hint) is not
being inserted by execution of an SQL statement that logically modifies
any of the index's key columns.
The hint is received by indexes when an UPDATE takes place that does not
apply an optimization like heapam's HOT (though only for indexes where
all key columns are logically unchanged). Any index tuple that receives
the hint on insert is expected to be a duplicate of at least one
existing older version that is needed for the same logical row. Related
versions will typically be stored on the same index page, at least
within index AMs that apply the hint.
Recognizing the difference between MVCC version churn duplicates and
true logical row duplicates at the index AM level can help with cleanup
of garbage index tuples. Cleanup can intelligently target tuples that
are likely to be garbage, without wasting too many cycles on less

Add an optional callback to regression_main() that, if provided,
is invoked on each test output file before we try to compare it
to the expected-result file.
The main and isolation test programs don't need this (yet).
In pg_regress_ecpg, add a filter that eliminates target-host

brenext(), when parsing a '*' quantifier, forgot to return any "value"
for the token; per the equivalent case in next(), it should return
value 1 to indicate that greedy rather than non-greedy behavior is
wanted. The result is that the compiled regexp could behave like 'x*?'
rather than the intended 'x*', if we were unlucky enough to have
a zero in v->nextvalue at this point. That seems to happen with some
reliability if we have '.*' at the beginning of a BRE-mode regexp,
although that depends on the initial contents of a stack-allocated
struct, so it's not guaranteed to fail.
Found by Alexander Lakhin using valgrind testing. This bug seems
to be aboriginal in Spencer's code, so back-patch all the way.

This module provides a function test_regex() that is functionally
rather like regexp_matches(), but with additional debugging-oriented
options and additional output. The debug options are somewhat obscure;
they are chosen to match the API of the test harness that Henry Spencer
wrote way-back-when for use in Tcl. With this, we can import all the
test cases that Spencer wrote originally, even for regex functionality
that we don't currently expose in Postgres. This seems necessary
because we can no longer rely on Tcl to act as upstream and verify
any fixes or improvements that we make.
In addition to Spencer's tests, I added a few for lookbehind
constraints (which we added in 2015, and Tcl still hasn't absorbed)
that are modeled on his tests for lookahead constraints. After looking
at code coverage reports, I also threw in a couple of tests to more
fully exercise our "high colormap" logic.
According to my testing, this brings the check-world coverage
for src/backend/regex/ from 71.1% to 86.7% of lines.
(coverage.postgresql.org shows a slightly different number,
which I think is because it measures a non-assert build.)

Formerly, TOAST objects were unconditionally suppressed, but since
\d is able to print them it's not very clear why these variants
should not. Instead, use the same rules as for system catalogs:
they can be seen if you write the 'S' modifier or a table name
pattern. (In practice, since hardly anybody would keep pg_toast
in their search_path, it's really down to whether you use a pattern
that can match pg_toast.*.)
No docs change seems necessary because the docs already say that
this happens for "system objects"; we're just classifying TOAST
tables as being that.

If the substring start index and length overflow when added together,
substring() misbehaved, either throwing a bogus "negative substring
length" error on a case that should succeed, or failing to complain that
a negative length is negative (and instead returning the whole string,
in most cases). Unsurprisingly, the text, bytea, and bit variants of
the function all had this issue. Rearrange the logic to ensure that
negative lengths are always rejected, and add an overflow check to
handle the other case.
Also install similar guards into detoast_attr_slice() (nee
heap_tuple_untoast_attr_slice()), since it's far from clear that
no other code paths leading to that function could pass it values
that would overflow.

In the wake of the previous commit, we don't really need this anymore,
since array assignment is primarily handled by the core code.
The only way that that code could still be reached is that a GET
DIAGNOSTICS target variable could be an array element. But that
doesn't seem like a particularly essential feature. I'd added it
in commit 55caaaeba, but just because it was easy not because
anyone had actually asked for it. Hence, revert that patch and
then remove the now-unreachable stuff. (If we really had to,
we could probably reimplement GET DIAGNOSTICS using the new
assignment machinery; but the cost/benefit ratio looks very poor,
and it'd likely be a bit slower.)
Note that PLPGSQL_DTYPE_RECFIELD remains. It's possible that we
could get rid of that too, but maintaining the existing behaviors
for RECORD-type variables seems like it might be difficult. Since
there's not any functional limitation in those code paths as there
was in the ARRAYELEM code, I've not pursued the idea.

Invent new RawParseModes that allow the core grammar to handle
pl/pgsql expressions and assignments directly, and thereby get rid
of a lot of hackery in pl/pgsql's parser. This moves a good deal
of knowledge about pl/pgsql into the core code: notably, we have to
invent a CoercionContext that matches pl/pgsql's (rather dubious)
historical behavior for assignment coercions. That's getting away
from the original idea of pl/pgsql as an arm's-length extension of
the core, but really we crossed that bridge a long time ago.
The main advantage of doing this is that we can now use the core
parser to generate FieldStore and/or SubscriptingRef nodes to handle
assignments to pl/pgsql variables that are records or arrays. That
fixes a number of cases that had never been implemented in pl/pgsql
assignment, such as nested records and array slicing, and it allows
pl/pgsql assignment to support the datatype-specific subscripting
behaviors introduced in commit c7aba7c14.
There are cosmetic benefits too: when a syntax error occurs in a
pl/pgsql expression, the error report no longer includes the confusing
"SELECT" keyword that used to get prefixed to the expression text.
Also, there seem to be some small speed gains.

Since at least 2001 we've used putenv() and avoided setenv(), on the
grounds that the latter was unportable and not in POSIX. However,
POSIX added it that same year, and by now the situation has reversed:
setenv() is probably more portable than putenv(), since POSIX now
treats the latter as not being a core function. And setenv() has
cleaner semantics too. So, let's reverse that old policy.
This commit adds a simple src/port/ implementation of setenv() for
any stragglers (we have one in the buildfarm, but I'd not be surprised
if that code is never used in the field). More importantly, extend
win32env.c to also support setenv(). Then, replace usages of putenv()
with setenv(), and get rid of some ad-hoc implementations of setenv()
wannabees.
Also, adjust our src/port/ implementation of unsetenv() to follow the
POSIX spec that it returns an error indicator, rather than returning
void as per the ancient BSD convention. I don't feel a need to make
all the call sites check for errors, but the portability stub ought
to match real-world practice.

Buildfarm members pogona and petalura have shown a failure when
pg_ctl/t/004_logrotate.pl starts just before local midnight.
The default rotate-at-midnight behavior occurs just before the
Perl script examines current_logfiles, so it figures that the
rotation it's already requested has occurred ... but in reality,
that rotation happens just after it looks, so the expected new
log data goes into a different file than the one it's examining.
In HEAD, src/test/kerberos/t/001_auth.pl has acquired similar code
that evidently has a related failure mode. Besides being quite new,
few buildfarm critters run that test, so it's unsurprising that
we've not yet seen a failure there.
Fix both cases by setting log_rotation_age = 0 so that no time-based
rotation can occur. Also absorb 004_logrotate.pl's decision to

The parsing of this parameter has been using strtoul(), which is not
portable across platforms. On most Unix platforms, unsigned long has a
size of 64 bits, while on Windows it is 32 bits. It is common in
recovery scenarios to rely on the output of txid_current() or even the
newer pg_current_xact_id() to get a transaction ID for setting up
recovery_target_xid. The value returned by those functions includes the
epoch in the computed result, which would cause strtoul() to fail where
unsigned long has a size of 32 bits once the epoch is incremented.
WAL records and 2PC data include only information about 32-bit XIDs and
it is not possible to have XIDs across more than one epoch, so
discarding the high bits from the transaction ID set has no impact on
recovery. On the contrary, the use of strtoul() prevents a consistent
behavior across platforms depending on the size of unsigned long.
This commit changes the parsing of recovery_target_xid to use
pg_strtouint64() instead, available down to 9.6. There is one TAP test
stressing recovery with recovery_target_xid, where a tweak based on
pg_reset{xlog,wal} is added to bump the XID epoch so as this change gets
tested, as per an idea from Alexander Lakhin.

Multiranges are basically sorted arrays of non-overlapping ranges with
set-theoretic operations defined over them.
Since v14, each range type automatically gets a corresponding multirange
datatype. There are both manual and automatic mechanisms for naming multirange
types. Once can specify multirange type name using multirange_type_name
attribute in CREATE TYPE. Otherwise, a multirange type name is generated
automatically. If the range type name contains "range" then we change that to
"multirange". Otherwise, we add "_multirange" to the end.
Implementation of multiranges comes with a space-efficient internal
representation format, which evades extra paddings and duplicated storage of
oids. Altogether this format allows fetching a particular range by its index
in O(n).
Statistic gathering and selectivity estimation are implemented for multiranges.
For this purpose, stored multirange is approximated as union range without gaps.
This field will likely need improvements in the future.

Commit 257836a75 added the "locale" subdirectory to SUBDIRS,

had no functional effect because the filter-out function would
remove it anyway. Still, it's confusing to readers to list a

Any subdirectory that's ignoring /output_iso/ should also

I think these have been wrong for awhile, but it doesn't

Many older tests where written in a style like

where the first column indicated the number of expected result rows.
This has gotten increasingly out of date, as the test data fixtures
have expanded, so a lot of these were wrong and misleading. Moreover,
this style isn't really necessary, since the psql output already shows

Commit c7aba7c14 didn't add this, but after more fooling with the
feature I feel that it'd be useful. To make this possible, refactor
getSubscriptingRoutines() so that the caller is responsible for
throwing any error. (In clauses.c, I just chose to make the
most conservative assumption rather than throwing an error. We don't
expect failures there anyway really, so the code space for an error
message would be a poor investment.)
This patch generalizes the subscripting infrastructure so that any
data type can be subscripted, if it provides a handler function to
define what that means. Traditional variable-length (varlena) arrays
all use array_subscript_handler(), while the existing fixed-length
types that support subscripting use raw_array_subscript_handler().
It's expected that other types that want to use subscripting notation
will define their own handlers. (This patch provides no such new
features, though; it only lays the foundation for them.)
To do this, move the parser's semantic processing of subscripts
(including coercion to whatever data type is required) into a
method callback supplied by the handler. On the execution side,
replace the ExecEvalSubscriptingRef* layer of functions with direct
calls to callback-supplied execution routines. (Thus, essentially
no new run-time overhead should be caused by this patch. Indeed,
there is room to remove some overhead by supplying specialized
execution routines. This patch does a little bit in that line,
but more could be done.)
Additional work is required here and there to remove formerly
hard-wired assumptions about the result type, collation, etc
of a SubscriptingRef expression node; and to remove assumptions
that the subscript values must be integers.
One useful side-effect of this is that we now have a less squishy
mechanism for identifying whether a data type is a "true" array:
instead of wiring in weird rules about typlen, we can look to see
if pg_type.typsubscript == F_ARRAY_SUBSCRIPT_HANDLER. For this
to be bulletproof, we have to forbid user-defined types from using
that handler directly; but there seems no good reason for them to
do so.
This patch also removes assumptions that the number of subscripts
is limited to MAXDIM (6), or indeed has any hard-wired limit.
That limit still applies to types handled by array_subscript_handler
or raw_array_subscript_handler, but to discourage other dependencies
on this constant, I've moved it from c.h to utils/array.h.

Exercise some error cases that were never reached in the existing
regression tests. This is partly for code-coverage reasons, and
partly to memorialize the current behavior in advance of planned
changes for generic subscripting.
Also, I noticed that type_sanity's check to verify that all standard
types have array types was never extended when we added arrays for
all system catalog rowtypes (f7f70d5e2), nor when we added arrays
over domain types (c12d570fa). So do that. Also, since the query's
expected output isn't empty, it seems like a good idea to add an
ORDER BY to make sure the result stays stable.
Commit 4be058fe9 forgot that the append_rel_list would already be
populated at the time we remove useless result RTEs, and it might contain
PlaceHolderVars that need to be adjusted like the ones in the main parse

Formerly we only applied extended statistics to an OR clause as part
of the clauselist_selectivity() code path for an OR clause appearing
in an implicitly-ANDed list of clauses. This meant that it could only
use extended statistics if all sub-clauses of the OR clause were
covered by a single extended statistics object.
Instead, teach clause_selectivity() how to apply extended statistics
to an OR clause by handling its ORed list of sub-clauses in a similar
manner to an implicitly-ANDed list of sub-clauses, but with different
combination rules. This allows one or more extended statistics objects
to be used to estimate all or part of the list of sub-clauses. Any
remaining sub-clauses are then treated as if they are independent.
Additionally, to avoid double-application of extended statistics, this
introduces "extended" versions of clause_selectivity() and
clauselist_selectivity(), which include an option to ignore extended
statistics. This replaces the old clauselist_selectivity_simple()
function which failed to completely ignore extended statistics when
called from the extended statistics code.
A known limitation of the current infrastructure is that an AND clause
under an OR clause is not treated as compatible with extended
statistics (because we don't build RestrictInfos for such sub-AND
clauses). Thus, for example, "(a=1 AND b=1) OR (a=2 AND b=2)" will
currently be treated as two independent AND clauses (each of which may
be estimated using extended statistics), but extended statistics will
not currently be used to account for any possible overlap between
those clauses. Improving that is left as a task for the future.

As it stood, expandTableLikeClause() re-did the same relation_openrv
call that transformTableLikeClause() had done. However there are
scenarios where this would not find the same table as expected.
We hold lock on the LIKE source table, so it can't be renamed or
dropped, but another table could appear before it in the search path.
This explains the odd behavior reported in bug #16758 when cloning a
table as a temp table of the same name. This case worked as expected
before commit 502898192 introduced the need to open the source table
twice, so we should fix it.
To make really sure we get the same table, let's re-open it by OID not
name. That requires adding an OID field to struct TableLikeClause,
which is a little nervous-making from an ABI standpoint, but as long
as it's at the end I don't think there's any serious risk.

If a PlaceHolderVar is to be evaluated at a join relation, but
its value is only needed there and not at higher levels, we neglected
to update the joinrel's direct_lateral_relids to include the PHV's
source rel. This causes problems because join_is_legal() then won't
allow joining the joinrel to the PHV's source rel at all, leading
to "failed to build any N-way joins" planner failures.

Previously test_shm_mq worker used the stripped-down version of die()
as the SIGTERM signal handler. This commit makes it use die(), instead,
to simplify the code.
In terms of the code, the difference between die() and the stripped-down
version previously used is whether the signal handler directly may call
ProcessInterrupts() or not. But this difference doesn't exist in
a background worker because, in bgworker, DoingCommandRead flag will
never be true and die() will never call ProcessInterrupts() directly.
Therefore test_shm_mq worker can safely use die(), like other bgworker
proceses (e.g., logical replication apply launcher or autoprewarm worker)
currently do.

Previously worker_spi used its custom signal handlers for SIGHUP and
SIGTERM. This commit makes worker_spi use the standard signal handlers,
to simplify the code.
Note that die() is used as the standard SIGTERM signal handler in
worker_spi instead of SignalHandlerForShutdownRequest() or bgworker_die().
Previously the exit handling was only able to exit from within the main loop,
and not from within the backend code it calls. This is why die() needs to
be used here, so worker_spi can respond to SIGTERM signal while it's
executing a query.
Maybe we can say that it's a bug that worker_spi could not respond to
SIGTERM during query execution. But since worker_spi is a just example
of the background worker code, we don't do the back-patch.

currtid() and currtid2() are an undocumented set of functions whose sole
known user is the Postgres ODBC driver, able to retrieve the latest TID
version for a tuple given by the caller of those functions.
As used by Postgres ODBC, currtid() is a shortcut able to retrieve the
last TID loaded into a backend by passing an OID of 0 (magic value)
after a tuple insertion. This is removed in this commit, as it became
obsolete after the driver began using "RETURNING ctid" with inserts, a
clause supported since Postgres 8.2 (using RETURNING is better for
performance anyway as it reduces the number of round-trips to the
backend).
currtid2() is still used by the driver, so this remains around for now.
Note that this function is kept in its original shape for backward
compatibility reasons.

Since we're assuming IEEE floats these days, there seems little
reason not to do this. It has the advantage that when the slope is
computed as infinite due to the presence of Inf coordinates, we get
saner behavior than before from line_construct(), and thence also
in some dependent operations such as finding the closest point.
Also fix line_construct() to special-case slope zero. The previous
coding got the right answer in most cases, but it could compute
C as NaN when the point has Inf coordinates.

"FPeq(infinity, infinity)" returned false, on account of getting NaN
when it subtracts the two inputs. Fix that by adding a separate
check for exact equality.
FPle() and FPge() similarly got the wrong answer for two like-signed
infinities. In those cases, we can just rearrange the comparisons
to avoid potentially subtracting infinities.
While the sibling functions FPne() etc accidentally gave the right
answers even with the internal NaN results, it seems best to make
similar adjustments to them to avoid depending on this.
FPeq() has to be converted to an inline function to avoid double
evaluations of its arguments, and I did the same for the others
just for consistency.
In passing, make the handling of NaN cases in line_eq() and
point_eq_point() simpler and easier to reason about, and perhaps
faster.
This results in just one visible regression test change: slope()
now gives DBL_MAX for two inputs of (inf,1e300), which is consistent
with what it does for (1e300,inf), so that seems like a bug fix.

As per discussion with Peter Eisentraunt, the SQL standard specifies
that any tuple insertion done as part of CREATE TABLE AS happens without
any extra ACL check, so it makes little sense to keep a check for INSERT
privileges when using WITH DATA. Materialized views are not part of the
standard, but similarly, this check can be confusing as this refers to
an access check on a table created within the same command as the one
that would insert data into this table.

This feature was added a long time ago, in 7c1e67bd5 and eb121ba2c,
but never documented in any user-facing way. (Documentation added
in 6126d3e70 was commented out almost immediately, in 8272fc3f7.)
That's because, while this syntax is defined by SQL:99, our
implementation is only vaguely related to the standard's semantics.
The standard appears to intend a run-time not parse-time test, and
it definitely intends that the test should understand subtype
relationships.
No one has stepped up to fix that in the intervening years, but
people keep coming across the code and asking why it's not documented.
Let's just get rid of it: if anyone ever wants to make it work per
spec, they can easily recover whatever parts of this code are still
of value from our git history.
If there's anyone out there who's actually using this despite its
undocumented status, they can switch to using pg_typeof() instead,
eg. "pg_typeof(something) = 'mytype'::regtype". That gives
essentially the same semantics as what our IS OF code did.

Commit 502898192 was too careless about the order of execution of the
additional ALTER TABLE operations generated by expandTableLikeClause.
It just stuck them all at the end, which seems okay for most purposes.
But it falls down in the case where LIKE is importing a primary key
or unique index and the outer CREATE TABLE includes a FOREIGN KEY
constraint that needs to depend on that index. Weird as that is,
it used to work, so we ought to keep it working.
To fix, make parse_utilcmd.c insert LIKE clauses between index-creation
and FK-creation commands in the transformed list of commands, and change
utility.c so that the commands generated by expandTableLikeClause are
executed immediately not at the end. One could imagine scenarios where
this wouldn't work either; but currently expandTableLikeClause only
makes column default expressions, CHECK constraints, and indexes, and
this ordering seems fine for those.

Since this function is used as a CHECK constraint condition,
returning NULL is tantamount to returning TRUE, which would have the
effect of letting in a row that doesn't satisfy the hash condition.
Admittedly, the cases for which this is done should be unreachable
in practice, but that doesn't make it any less a bad idea. It also
seems like a dartboard was used to decide which error cases should
throw errors as opposed to returning NULL.
For the checks for NULL input values, I just switched it to returning
false. There's some argument that an error would be better; but the
case really should be can't-happen in a generated hash constraint,
so it's likely not worth more code for.
For the parent-relation-open-failure case, it seems like we might
as well let relation_open throw an error, instead of having an
impossible-to-diagnose constraint failure.

When specified, WITH NO DATA does not insert any data into the relation
created, so skip checking for the insert permissions. With WITH DATA or
WITH NO DATA, it is always required for the user to have CREATE
privileges on the schema targeted for the relation.
Note that plain CREATE TABLE AS or CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW queries have
begun to work accidentally without INSERT privilege checks as of
874fe3ae, while using EXECUTE or EXPLAIN ANALYZE would fail with the ACL
check, so this makes the behavior for all the command flavors consistent
with each other. This is arguably a bug fix, but there have been no
complaints about the current behavior either so stable branches are not
changed.
While on it, document properly the privileges requirements for each

At the time I thought that commit was not fixing any observable
bug, but Bertrand Drouvot showed otherwise: adding a dropped column
to the previously-considered scenario crashes v12 and v13, unless the
dropped column happens to be an integer. That is, of course, because
the tupdesc we derive from the plan output tlist fails to describe
the dropped column accurately, so that we'll do the wrong thing with
a tuple in which that column isn't NULL.
There is no bug in pre-v12 branches because they already did use
the table's real tuple descriptor for any trigger-returned tuple.
It seems that this set of bugs can be blamed on the changes that
removed es_trig_tuple_slot, though I've not attempted to pin that
down precisely.
Although there's no code change needed in HEAD, update the test case

brin_form_tuple failed to consider the values may be toasted, inserting

The cleanup however does not care about indexes, leaving invalid toast
pointers behind, which triggers errors like this:

A less severe consequence are inconsistent failures due to the index row
being too large, depending on whether brin_form_tuple operated on plain
or toasted version of the row. For example
CREATE TABLE t (val TEXT);
INSERT INTO t VALUES ('... long value ...')
CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING brin (val);
would likely succeed, as the row would likely include toast pointer.
Switching the order of INSERT and CREATE INDEX would likely fail:
ERROR: index row size 8712 exceeds maximum 8152 for index "idx"

The SQL spec suggests that the default should be coerced to the data

The SQL spec calls out nonstandard syntax for certain function calls,
for example substring() with numeric position info is supposed to be
spelled "SUBSTRING(string FROM start FOR count)". We accept many
of these things, but up to now would not print them in the same format,
instead simplifying down to "substring"(string, start, count).
That's long annoyed me because it creates an interoperability
problem: we're gratuitously injecting Postgres-specific syntax into
what might otherwise be a perfectly spec-compliant view definition.
However, the real reason for addressing it right now is to support
a planned change in the semantics of EXTRACT() a/k/a date_part().
When we switch that to returning numeric, we'll have the parser
translate EXTRACT() to some new function name (might as well be
"extract" if you ask me) and then teach ruleutils.c to reverse-list
that per SQL spec. In this way existing calls to date_part() will
continue to have the old semantics.
To implement this, invent a new CoercionForm value COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX,
and make the parser insert that rather than COERCE_EXPLICIT_CALL when
the input has SQL-spec decoration. (But if the input has the form of
a plain function call, continue to mark it COERCE_EXPLICIT_CALL, even
if it's calling one of these functions.) Then ruleutils.c recognizes
COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX as a cue to emit SQL call syntax. It can know
which decoration to emit using hard-wired knowledge about the
functions that could be called this way. (While this solution isn't
extensible without manual additions, neither is the grammar, so this
doesn't seem unmaintainable.) Notice that this solution will
reverse-list a function call with SQL decoration only if it was
entered that way; so dump-and-reload will not by itself produce any
changes in the appearance of views.
This requires adding a CoercionForm field to struct FuncCall.
(I couldn't resist the temptation to rearrange that struct's
field order a tad while I was at it.) FuncCall doesn't appear
in stored rules, so that change isn't a reason for a catversion
bump, but I did one anyway because the new enum value for
CoercionForm fields could confuse old backend code.
Possible future work:
* Perhaps CoercionForm should now be renamed to DisplayForm,
or something like that, to reflect its more general meaning.
This'd require touching a couple hundred places, so it's not
clear it's worth the code churn.
* The SQLValueFunction node type, which was invented partly for
the same goal of improving SQL-compatibility of view output,
could perhaps be replaced with regular function calls marked
with COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. It's unclear if this would be a net
code savings, however.

The current implementation cannot handle this correctly, so just
forbid it for now.
GENERATED clauses must be attached to the column definition and cannot
be added later like DEFAULT, so if a child table has a generation
expression that the parent does not have, the child column will
necessarily be an attlocal column. So to implement ALTER TABLE ONLY /
DROP EXPRESSION, we'd need extra code to update attislocal of the
direct child tables, somewhat similar to how DROP COLUMN does it, so
that the resulting state can be properly dumped and restored.

Previously we only tagged on the required information to allow the
executor to perform run-time partition pruning for Append/MergeAppend
nodes belonging to base relations. It was thought that nested
Append/MergeAppend nodes were just about always pulled up into the
top-level Append/MergeAppend and that making the run-time pruning info for
any sub Append/MergeAppend nodes was a waste of time. However, that was
likely badly thought through.
Some examples of cases we're unable to pullup nested Append/MergeAppends
are: 1) Parallel Append nodes with a mix of parallel and non-parallel
paths into a Parallel Append. 2) When planning an ordered Append scan a
sub-partition which is unordered may require a nested MergeAppend path to
ensure sub-partitions don't mix up the order of tuples being fed into the
top-level Append.
Unfortunately, it was not just as simple as removing the lines in
createplan.c which were purposefully not building the run-time pruning
info for anything but RELOPT_BASEREL relations. The code in
add_paths_to_append_rel() was far too sloppy about which partitioned_rels
it included for the Append/MergeAppend paths. The original code there
would always assume accumulate_append_subpath() would pull each sub-Append
and sub-MergeAppend path into the top-level path. While it does not
appear that there were any actual bugs caused by having the additional
partitioned table RT indexes recorded, what it did mean is that later in
planning, when we built the run-time pruning info that we wasted effort
and built PartitionedRelPruneInfos for partitioned tables that we had no
subpaths for the executor to run-time prune.
Here we tighten that up so that partitioned_rels only ever contains the RT
index for partitioned tables which actually have subpaths in the given
Append/MergeAppend. We can now Assert that every PartitionedRelPruneInfo
has a non-empty present_parts. That should allow us to catch any weird
corner cases that have been missed.
In passing, it seems there is no longer a good reason to have the
AppendPath and MergeAppendPath's partitioned_rel fields a List of IntList.
We can simply have a List of Relids instead. This is more compact in
memory and faster to add new members to. We still know which is the root
level partition as these always have a lower relid than their children.
Previously this field was used for more things, but run-time partition
pruning now remains the only user of it and it has no need for a List of
IntLists.
Here we also get rid of the RelOptInfo partitioned_child_rels field. This
is what was previously used to (sometimes incorrectly) set the
Append/MergeAppend path's partitioned_rels field. That was the only usage
of that field, so we can happily just remove it.
I also couldn't resist changing some nearby code to make use of the newly
added for_each_from macro so we can skip the first element in the list
without checking if the current item was the first one on each
iteration.
A bug report from Andreas Kretschmer prompted all this work, however,
after some consideration, I'm not personally classing this as a bug fix.
So no backpatch. In Andreas' test case, it just wasn't that clear that
there was a nested Append since the top-level Append just had a single
sub-path which was pulled up a level, per 8edd0e794.

Statistics associated to an index got lost after running REINDEX
CONCURRENTLY, while the non-concurrent case preserves these correctly.
The concurrent and non-concurrent operations need to be consistent for
the end-user, and missing statistics would force to wait for a new
analyze to happen, which could take some time depending on the activity
of the existing autovacuum workers. This issue is fixed by copying any
existing entries in pg_statistic associated to the old index to the new

This fixes a bug in the edge case where, for a temp table, heap_page_prune()
can end up with a different horizon than heap_vacuum_rel(). Which can trigger
errors like "ERROR: cannot freeze committed xmax ...".
The bug was introduced due to interaction of a7212be8b9 "Set cutoff xmin more
aggressively when vacuuming a temporary table." with dc7420c2c9 "snapshot
scalability: Don't compute global horizons while building snapshots.".
The problem is caused by lazy_scan_heap() assuming that the only reason its
HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() call would return HEAPTUPLE_DEAD is if the tuple is
a HOT tuple, or if the tuple's inserting transaction has aborted since the
heap_page_prune() call. But after a7212be8b9 that was also possible in other
cases for temp tables, because heap_page_prune() uses a different visibility
test after dc7420c2c9.
The fix is fairly simple: Move the special case logic for temp tables from
vacuum_set_xid_limits() to the infrastructure introduced in dc7420c2c9. That
ensures that the horizon used for pruning is at least as aggressive as the one
used by lazy_scan_heap(). The concrete horizon used for temp tables is
slightly different than the logic in dc7420c2c9, but should always be as
aggressive as before (see comments).
A significant benefit to centralizing the logic procarray.c is that now the
more aggressive horizons for temp tables does not just apply to VACUUM but
also to e.g. HOT pruning and the nbtree killtuples logic.
Because isTopLevel is not needed by vacuum_set_xid_limits() anymore, I
undid the the related changes from a7212be8b9.
This commit also adds an isolation test ensuring that the more aggressive
vacuuming and pruning of temp tables keeps working.

It's unsafe to do this at parse time because addition of generated
columns to a table would not invalidate stored rules containing
UPDATEs on the table ... but there might now be dependent generated
columns that were not there when the rule was made. This also fixes
an oversight that rewriteTargetView failed to update extraUpdatedCols
when transforming an UPDATE on an updatable view. (Since the new
calculation is downstream of that, rewriteTargetView doesn't actually
need to do anything; but before, there was a demonstrable bug there.)
In v13 and HEAD, this leads to easily-visible bugs because (since
commit c6679e4fc) we won't recalculate generated columns that aren't
listed in extraUpdatedCols. In v12 this bitmap is mostly just used
for trigger-firing decisions, so you'd only notice a problem if a
trigger cared whether a generated column had been updated.
I'd complained about this back in May, but then forgot about it
until bug #16671 from Michael Paul Killian revived the issue.
Back-patch to v12 where this field was introduced. If existing
stored rules contain any extraUpdatedCols values, they'll be
ignored because the rewriter will overwrite them, so the bug will
be fixed even for existing rules. (But note that if someone were
to update to 13.1 or 12.5, store some rules with UPDATEs on tables
having generated columns, and then downgrade to a prior minor version,
they might observe issues similar to what this patch fixes. That
seems unlikely enough to not be worth going to a lot of effort to fix.)

get_foreign_key_join_selectivity() looks for join clauses that equate
the two sides of the FK constraint. However, if we have a query like
"WHERE fktab.a = pktab.a and fktab.a = 1", it won't find any such join
clause, because equivclass.c replaces the given clauses with "fktab.a
= 1 and pktab.a = 1", which can be enforced at the scan level, leaving
nothing to be done for column "a" at the join level.
We can fix that expectation without much trouble, but then a new problem
arises: applying the foreign-key-based selectivity rule produces a
rowcount underestimate, because we're effectively double-counting the
selectivity of the "fktab.a = 1" clause. So we have to cancel that
selectivity out of the estimate.
To fix, refactor process_implied_equality() so that it can pass back the
new RestrictInfo to its callers in equivclass.c, allowing the generated
"fktab.a = 1" clause to be saved in the EquivalenceClass's ec_derives
list. Then it's not much trouble to dig out the relevant RestrictInfo
when we need to adjust an FK selectivity estimate. (While at it, we
can also remove the expensive use of initialize_mergeclause_eclasses()
to set up the new RestrictInfo's left_ec and right_ec pointers.
The equivclass.c code can set those basically for free.)
This seems like clearly a bug fix, but I'm hesitant to back-patch it,
first because there's some API/ABI risk for extensions and second because
we're usually loath to destabilize plan choices in stable branches.

This makes use of CheckBuffer() introduced in c780a7a, adding a SQL
wrapper able to do checks for all the pages of a relation. By default,
all the fork types of a relation are checked, and it is possible to
check only a given relation fork. Note that if the relation given in
input has no physical storage or is temporary, then no errors are
generated, allowing full-database checks when coupled with a simple scan
of pg_class for example. This is not limited to clusters with data
checksums enabled, as clusters without data checksums can still apply
checks on pages using the page headers or for the case of a page full of
zeros.
This function returns a set of tuples consisting of:
- The physical file where a broken page has been detected (without the
segment number as that can be AM-dependent, which can be guessed from
the block number for heap). A relative path from PGPATH is used.
- The block number of the broken page.
By default, only superusers have an access to this function but
execution rights can be granted to other users.
The feature introduced here is still minimal, and more improvements
could be done, like:
- Addition of a start and end block number to run checks on a range
of blocks, which would apply only if one fork type is checked.
- Addition of some progress reporting.
- Throttling, with configuration parameters in function input or
potentially some cost-based GUCs.
Regression tests are added for positive cases in the main regression
test suite, and TAP tests are added for cases involving the emulation of
page corruptions.

If the old row has any "missing" attributes that are supposed to
be retrieved from an associated tuple descriptor, the wrong things
happened because the trigger result is shoved directly into an
executor slot that lacks the missing-attribute data. Notably,
CHECK-constraint verification would incorrectly see those columns
as NULL, and so would RETURNING-list evaluation.
Band-aid around this by forcibly expanding the tuple before passing
it to the trigger function. (IMO it was a fundamental misdesign to
put the missing-attribute data into tuple constraints, which so
much of the system considers to be optional. But we're probably
stuck with that now, and will have to continue to apply band-aids
as we find other places with similar issues.)
Back-patch to v12. v11 would also have the issue, except that
commit 920311ab1 already applied a similar band-aid. That forced
expansion in more cases than seem really necessary, though, so

Since commit 913bbd88d, check_sql_fn_retval() can either insert type
coercion steps in-line in the Query that produces the SQL function's
results, or generate a new top-level Query to perform the coercions,
if modifying the Query's output in-place wouldn't be safe. However,
it appears that the latter case has never actually worked, because
the code tried to inject the new Query back into the query list it was
passed ... which is not the list that will be used for later processing
when we execute the SQL function "normally" (without inlining it).
So we ended up with no coercion happening at run-time, leading to
wrong results or crashes depending on the datatypes involved.
While the regression tests look like they cover this area well enough,
through a huge bit of bad luck all the test cases that exercise the
separate-Query path were checking either inline-able cases (which
accidentally didn't have the bug) or cases that are no-ops at runtime
(e.g., varchar to text), so that the failure to perform the coercion
wasn't obvious. The fact that the cases that don't work weren't
allowed at all before v13 probably contributed to not noticing the
problem sooner, too.
To fix, get rid of the separate "flat" list of Query nodes and instead
pass the real two-level list that is going to be used later. I chose
to make the same change in check_sql_fn_statements(), although that has
no actual bug, just so that we don't need that data structure at all.
This is an API change, as evidenced by the adjustments needed to
callers outside functions.c. That's a bit scary to be doing in a
released branch, but so far as I can tell from a quick search,
there are no outside callers of these functions (and they are
sufficiently specific to our semantics for SQL-language functions that
it's not apparent why any extension would need to call them). In any
case, v13 already changed the API of check_sql_fn_retval() compared to
prior branches.

Our infinite_recurse() test to verify sane stack-overrun behavior
is affected by a bug of the Linux kernel on PPC64: it will get SIGSEGV
if it receives a signal when the stack depth is (a) over 1MB and
(b) within a few kB of filling the current physical stack allocation.
See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205183.
Since this test is a bit time-consuming and we run it in parallel with
test scripts that do a lot of DDL, it can be expected to get an sinval
catchup interrupt at some point, leading to failure if the timing is
wrong. This has caused more than 100 buildfarm failures over the
past year or so.
While a fix exists for the kernel bug, it might be years before that
propagates into all production kernels, particularly in some of the
older distros we have in the buildfarm. For now, let's just back off
and not run this test on Linux PPC64; that loses nothing in test

The date-vs-timestamp, date-vs-timestamptz, and timestamp-vs-timestamptz
comparators all worked by promoting the first type to the second and
then doing a simple same-type comparison. This works fine, except
when the conversion result is out of range, in which case we throw an
entirely avoidable error. The sources of such failures are
(a) type date can represent dates much farther in the future than
the timestamp types can;
(b) timezone rotation might cause a just-in-range timestamp value to
become a just-out-of-range timestamptz value.
Up to now we just ignored these corner-case issues, but now we have
an actual user complaint (bug #16657 from Huss EL-Sheikh), so let's
do something about it.
It turns out that commit 52ad1e659 already built all the necessary
infrastructure to support error-free comparisons, but neglected to
actually use it in the main-line code paths. Fix that, do a little
bit of code style review, and remove the now-duplicate logic in
jsonpath_exec.c.
Back-patch to v13 where 52ad1e659 came in. We could take this back
further by back-patching said infrastructure, but given the small
number of complaints so far, I don't feel a great need to.

Commit 3eb3d3e78 was a few bricks shy of a load: while it correctly
set the table's "interesting" flag when deciding to dump the data of
an extension config table, it was not correct to clear that flag
if we concluded we shouldn't dump the data. This led to the crash
reported in bug #16655, because in fact we'll traverse dumpTableSchema
anyway for all extension tables (to see if they have user-added
seclabels or RLS policies).
The right thing to do is to force "interesting" true in makeTableDataInfo,
and otherwise leave the flag alone. (Doing it there is more future-proof
in case additional calls are added, and it also avoids setting the flag
unnecessarily if that function decides the table is non-dumpable.)
This investigation also showed that while only the --inserts code path
had an obvious failure in the case considered by 3eb3d3e78, the COPY
code path also has a problem with not having loaded table subsidiary
data. That causes fmtCopyColumnList to silently return an empty string
instead of the correct column list. That accidentally mostly works,
which perhaps is why we didn't notice this before. It would only fail
if the restore column order is different from the dump column order,
which only happens in weird inheritance cases, so it's not surprising
nobody had hit the case with an extension config table. Nonetheless,
it's a bug, and it goes a long way back, not just to v12 where the
--inserts code path started to have a problem with this.
In hopes of catching such cases a bit sooner in future, add some
Asserts that "interesting" has been set in both dumpTableData and
dumpTableSchema. Adjust the test case added by 3eb3d3e78 so that it
checks the COPY rather than INSERT form of that bug, allowing it to
detect the longer-standing symptom.

I noticed while trying to run the regression tests under a low
geqo_threshold that one query on information_schema.columns had
unstable (as in, variable from one run to the next) output order.
This is pretty unsurprising given the complexity of the underlying
plan. Interestingly, of this test's three nigh-identical queries on
information_schema.columns, the other two already had ORDER BY clauses
guaranteeing stable output. Let's make this one look the same.
Back-patch to v10 where this test was added. We've not heard field
reports of the test failing, but this experience shows that it can
happen when testing under even slightly unusual conditions.
The handling of those options was inconsistent, as the processing used
directly the value assigned to the option to check if it was redundant,
leading to patterns like this one to succeed (note that false is
specified first):
COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header off, header on);
And the opposite would fail correctly (note that true is first here):
COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header on, header off);
While on it, add some tests to check for all redundant patterns with the
options of COPY. I have gone through the code and did not notice
similar mistakes for other commands.
"header" got it wrong since b63990c, and "freeze" was wrong from the
start as of 8de72b6. No backpatch is done per the lack of complaints.

I (Andres) broke this in 623a9CA79bx, because I didn't think about the
way snapshots are built on standbys sufficiently. Unfortunately our
existing tests did not catch this, as they are all just querying with
psql (therefore ending up with fresh snapshots).
The fix is trivial, we just need to increment the transaction
completion counter in ExpireTreeKnownAssignedTransactionIds(), which
is the equivalent of ProcArrayEndTransaction() during recovery.
This commit also adds a new test doing some basic testing of the
correctness of snapshots built on standbys. To avoid the
aforementioned issue of one-shot psql's not exercising the snapshot
caching, the test uses a long lived psqls, similar to
013_crash_restart.pl. It'd be good to extend the test further.

PostgresNode.pm set "max_wal_senders = 5" for replication testing,
but this seems to be slightly too low for our current test suite.
Slower buildfarm members frequently report "number of requested standby
connections exceeds max_wal_senders" failures, due to old walsenders
not exiting instantaneously. Usually, the test does not fail overall
because of automatic walreceiver restart, but sometimes the failure
becomes visible; and in any case such retries slow down the test.
That value came in with commit 89ac7004d, but was soon obsoleted by
f6d6d2920, which raised the built-in default from zero to 10; so that
PostgresNode.pm is actually setting it to less than the conservative
built-in default. That seems pretty pointless, so let's remove the
special setting and let the default prevail, in hopes of making
the TAP tests more robust.
Likewise, the setting "max_replication_slots = 5" is obsolete and
can be removed.
While here, reverse-engineer a comment about why we're choosing
less-than-default values for some other settings.
(Note: before v12, max_wal_senders counted against max_connections
so that the latter setting also needs some fiddling with.)
Back-patch to v10 where the subscription tests were added.
It's likely that the older branches aren't pushing the boundaries
of max_wal_senders, but I'm disinclined to spend time trying to
figure out exactly when it started to be a problem.

transformPartitionBoundValue went out of its way to do the wrong
thing: there is no reason to complain about a non-matching COLLATE
clause in a partition boundary expression. We're coercing the
bound expression to the target column type as though by an
implicit assignment, and the rules for implicit assignment say
that collations can be implicitly converted.

When commit bd3daddaf introduced AlternativeSubPlans, I had some
ambitions towards allowing the choice of subplan to change during
execution. That has not happened, or even been thought about, in the
ensuing twelve years; so it seems like a failed experiment. So let's
rip that out and resolve the choice of subplan at the end of planning
(in setrefs.c) rather than during executor startup. This has a number
of positive benefits:
* Removal of a few hundred lines of executor code, since
AlternativeSubPlans need no longer be supported there.
* Removal of executor-startup overhead (particularly, initialization
of subplans that won't be used).
* Removal of incidental costs of having a larger plan tree, such as
tree-scanning and copying costs in the plancache; not to mention
setrefs.c's own costs of processing the discarded subplans.
* EXPLAIN no longer has to print a weird (and undocumented)
representation of an AlternativeSubPlan choice; it sees only the
subplan actually used. This should mean less confusion for users.
* Since setrefs.c knows which subexpression of a plan node it's
working on at any instant, it's possible to adjust the estimated
number of executions of the subplan based on that. For example,
we should usually estimate more executions of a qual expression
than a targetlist expression. The implementation used here is
pretty simplistic, because we don't want to expend a lot of cycles
on the issue; but it's better than ignoring the point entirely,
as the executor had to.
That last point might possibly result in shifting the choice
between hashed and non-hashed EXISTS subplans in a few cases,
but in general this patch isn't meant to change planner choices.
Since we're doing the resolution so late, it's really impossible
to change any plan choices outside the AlternativeSubPlan itself.

We failed to pass down the query string to check_new_partition_bound,
so that its attempts to provide error cursor positions were for naught;
one must have the query string to get parser_errposition to do anything.
Adjust its API to require a ParseState to be passed down.
Also, improve the logic inside check_new_partition_bound so that the
cursor points at the partition bound for the specific column causing
the issue, when one can be identified.
That part is also for naught if we can't determine the query position of
the column with the problem. Improve transformPartitionBoundValue so
that it makes sure that const-simplified partition expressions will be
properly labeled with positions. In passing, skip calling evaluate_expr
if the value is already a Const, which is surely the most common case.

This feature has been a thorn in our sides for a long time, causing
many grammatical ambiguity problems. It doesn't seem worth the
pain to continue to support it, so remove it.
There are some follow-on improvements we can make in the grammar,
but this commit only removes the bare minimum number of productions,
plus assorted backend support code.
Note that pg_dump and psql continue to have full support, since
they may be used against older servers. However, pg_dump warns
about postfix operators. There is also a check in pg_upgrade.
Documentation-wise, I (tgl) largely removed the "left unary"
terminology in favor of saying "prefix operator", which is
a more standard and IMO less confusing term.
I included a catversion bump, although no initial catalog data
changes here, to mark the boundary at which oprkind = 'r'
stopped being valid in pg_operator.

This adds a new optional support function to the GiST access method:
sortsupport. If it is defined, the GiST index is built by sorting all data
to the order defined by the sortsupport's comparator function, and packing
the tuples in that order to GiST pages. This is similar to how B-tree
index build works, and is much faster than inserting the tuples one by
one. The resulting index is smaller too, because the pages are packed more
tightly, upto 'fillfactor'. The normal build method works by splitting
pages, which tends to lead to more wasted space.
The quality of the resulting index depends on how good the opclass-defined
sort order is. A good order preserves locality of the input data.
As the first user of this facility, add 'sortsupport' function to the
point_ops opclass. It sorts the points in Z-order (aka Morton Code), by
interleaving the bits of the X and Y coordinates.

or on a partition commits, the commit order of the follow-up DROP TABLE

Until now, REINDEX was not able to work with partitioned tables and
indexes, forcing users to reindex partitions one by one. This extends
REINDEX INDEX and REINDEX TABLE so as they can accept a partitioned
index and table in input, respectively, to reindex all the partitions
assigned to them with physical storage (foreign tables, partitioned
tables and indexes are then discarded).
This shares some logic with schema and database REINDEX as each
partition gets processed in its own transaction after building a list of
relations to work on. This choice has the advantage to minimize the
number of invalid indexes to one partition with REINDEX CONCURRENTLY in
the event a cancellation or failure in-flight, as the only indexes
handled at once in a single REINDEX CONCURRENTLY loop are the ones from
the partition being working on.
Isolation tests are added to emulate some cases I bumped into while
developing this feature, particularly with the concurrent drop of a
leaf partition reindexed. However, this is rather limited as LOCK would
cause REINDEX to block in the first transaction building the list of
partitions.
Per its multi-transaction nature, this new flavor cannot run in a
transaction block, similarly to REINDEX SCHEMA, SYSTEM and DATABASE.

logic in convert_sourcefiles_in() had a hard-wired limit of 1024
bytes on any line in input/*.sql or output/*.out files. While we've
not had reports of trouble yet, it'd surely have bit us someday.
This also fixes replace_string() so it won't get into an infinite
loop if the string-to-be-replaced is a substring of the replacement.
That's unlikely to happen in current usage, but the function surely
shouldn't depend on it.
Also fix ecpg_filter() to use a StringInfo and thereby remove its
hard limit of 300 bytes on the length of an ecpg source line.

This commit improves the dependency registrations by taking advantage of
the preliminary work done in 63110c62, to group together the insertion
of dependencies of the same type to pg_depend. With the current layer
of routines available, and as only dependencies of the same type can be
grouped, there are code paths still doing more than one multi-insert
when it is necessary to register dependencies of multiple types
(constraint and index creation are two cases doing that).
While on it, this refactors some of the code to use ObjectAddressSet()
when manipulating object addresses.

I happened to notice that the new test case I added in b55b4dad9
falls over if one runs "make check" repeatedly; though not in branches
after v10. That's because it was assuming that tmp_check/pgpass
wouldn't exist already. However, it's only been since v11 that the
Makefiles forcibly remove all of tmp_check/ before starting a TAP run.
This fix to unlink the file is therefore strictly necessary only in
v10 ... but it seems wisest to do it across the board, rather than
let the test rely on external logic to get the conditions right.
If this data is not collected, pg_dump segfaults if asked for column

Backpatch to release 12 where the bug was introduced.
The "DROP ACCESS METHOD gist2" test will require locking the index
to be dropped and then its table; while most ordinary operations
lock a table first then its index. While no concurrent test scripts
should be touching fast_emp4000, autovacuum might chance to be
processing that table when the DROP runs, resulting in a deadlock
failure. This is pretty rare but we see it in the buildfarm from
time to time.
To fix, acquire a lock on fast_emp4000 before issuing the DROP.
Since the point of the exercise is mostly to prevent buildfarm
failures, back-patch to 9.6 where this test was introduced.

Because sigsetjmp() will restore the initial state with signals blocked,
the code path in bgworker.c for reporting an error and exiting would
execute that way. Usually this is fairly harmless; but if a parallel
worker had an error message exceeding the shared-memory communication
buffer size (16K) it would lock up, because it would wait for a
resume-sending signal from its parallel leader which it would never
detect.
To fix, just unblock signals at the appropriate point.
This can be shown to fail back to 9.6. The lack of parallel query
infrastructure makes it difficult to provide a simple test case for
9.5; but I'm pretty sure the issue exists in some form there as well,
so apply the code change there too.

To add support for streaming of in-progress transactions into the
built-in logical replication, we need to do three things:
* Extend the logical replication protocol, so identify in-progress
transactions, and allow adding additional bits of information (e.g.
XID of subtransactions).
* Modify the output plugin (pgoutput) to implement the new stream
API callbacks, by leveraging the extended replication protocol.
* Modify the replication apply worker, to properly handle streamed
in-progress transaction by spilling the data to disk and then
replaying them on commit.
We however must explicitly disable streaming replication during
replication slot creation, even if the plugin supports it. We
don't need to replicate the changes accumulated during this phase,
and moreover we don't have a replication connection open so we
don't have where to send the data anyway.

This splits a string at occurrences of a delimiter. It is exactly like
string_to_array() except for producing a set of values instead of an
array of values. Thus, the relationship of these two functions is
the same as between regexp_split_to_table() and regexp_split_to_array().
Although the same results could be had from unnest(string_to_array()),
this is somewhat faster than that, and anyway it seems reasonable to
have it for symmetry with the regexp functions.

Historically there's been a hard-wired assumption here that no line of
a .pgpass file could be as long as NAMEDATALEN*5 bytes. That's a bit
shaky to start off with, because (a) there's no reason to suppose that
host names fit in NAMEDATALEN, and (b) this figure fails to allow for
backslash escape characters. However, it fails completely if someone
wants to use a very long password, and we're now hearing reports of
people wanting to use "security tokens" that can run up to several
hundred bytes. Another angle is that the file is specified to allow
comment lines, but there's no reason to assume that long comment lines
aren't possible.
Rather than guessing at what might be a more suitable limit, let's
replace the fixed-size buffer with an expansible PQExpBuffer. That
adds one malloc/free cycle to the typical use-case, but that's surely
pretty cheap relative to the I/O this code has to do.
Also, add TAP test cases to exercise this code, because there was no
test coverage before.
This reverts most of commit 2eb3bc588, as there's no longer a need for
a warning message about overlength .pgpass lines. (I kept the explicit
check for comment lines, though.)

collectMatchBitmap() needs to re-find the index tuple it was previously
looking at, after transiently dropping lock on the index page it's on.
The tuple should still exist and be at its prior position or somewhere
to the right of that, since ginvacuum never removes tuples but
concurrent insertions could add one. However, there was a thinko in
that logic, to the effect of expecting any inserted tuples to have the
same index "attnum" as what we'd been scanning. Since there's no
physical separation of tuples with different attnums, it's not terribly
hard to devise scenarios where this fails, leading to transient "lost
saved point in index" errors. (While I've duplicated this with manual
testing, it seems impossible to make a reproducible test case with our
available testing technology.)
Fix by just continuing the scan when the attnum doesn't match.
While here, improve the error message used if we do fail, so that it
matches the wording used in btree for a similar case.
collectMatchBitmap()'s posting-tree code path was previously not
exercised at all by our regression tests. While I can't make
a regression test that exhibits the bug, I can at least improve
the code coverage here, so do that. The test case I made for this

The trouble with doing this is that an apparently-constant subquery
output column isn't really constant if it is a grouping column that
appears in only some of the grouping sets. A qual using such a
column would be subject to incorrect const-folding after push-down,
as seen in bug #16585 from Paul Sivash.
To fix, just disable qual pushdown altogether if the sub-query has
nonempty groupingSets. While we could imagine far less restrictive
solutions, there is not much point in working harder right now,
because subquery_planner() won't move HAVING clauses to WHERE within
such a subquery. If the qual stays in HAVING it's not going to be
a lot more useful than if we'd kept it at the outer level.
Having said that, this restriction could be removed if we used a
parsetree representation that distinguished such outputs from actual
constants, which is something I hope to do in future. Hence, make
the patch a minimal addition rather than integrating it more tightly
(e.g. by renumbering the existing items in subquery_is_pushdown_safe's
comment).

If a CREATE TABLE command uses both LIKE and traditional inheritance,
Vars in CHECK constraints and expression indexes that are absorbed
from a LIKE parent table tended to get mis-numbered, resulting in
wrong answers and/or bizarre error messages (though probably not any
actual crashes, thanks to validation occurring in the executor).
In v12 and up, the same could happen to Vars in GENERATED expressions,
even in cases with no LIKE clause but multiple traditional-inheritance
parents.
The cause of the problem for LIKE is that parse_utilcmd.c supposed
it could renumber such Vars correctly during transformCreateStmt(),
which it cannot since we have not yet accounted for columns added via
inheritance. Fix that by postponing processing of LIKE INCLUDING
CONSTRAINTS, DEFAULTS, GENERATED, INDEXES till after we've performed
DefineRelation().
The error with GENERATED and multiple inheritance is a simple oversight
in MergeAttributes(); it knows it has to renumber Vars in inherited
CHECK constraints, but forgot to apply the same processing to inherited
GENERATED expressions (a/k/a defaults).

Commit ce77abe63c allowed EXPLAIN (BUFFERS) to report the information
on buffer usage during planning phase. However three issues were
reported regarding this feature.
(1) Previously, EXPLAIN option BUFFERS required ANALYZE. So the query
had to be actually executed by specifying ANALYZE even when we
want to see only the planner's buffer usage. This was inconvenient
especially when the query was write one like DELETE.
(2) EXPLAIN included the planner's buffer usage in summary
information. So SUMMARY option had to be enabled to report that.
Also this format was confusing.
(3) The output structure for planning information was not consistent
between TEXT format and the others. For example, "Planning" tag
was output in JSON format, but not in TEXT format.
For (1), this commit allows us to perform EXPLAIN (BUFFERS) without
ANALYZE to report the planner's buffer usage.
For (2), this commit changed EXPLAIN output so that the planner's
buffer usage is reported before summary information.
For (3), this commit made the output structure for planning
information more consistent between the formats.

nodeSubplan.c expects that the testexpr for a hashable ANY SubPlan
has the form of one or more OpExprs whose LHS is an expression of the
outer query's, while the RHS is an expression over Params representing
output columns of the subquery. However, the planner only went as far
as verifying that the clauses were all binary OpExprs. This works
99.99% of the time, because the clauses have the right shape when
emitted by the parser --- but it's possible for function inlining to
break that, as reported by PegoraroF10. To fix, teach the planner
to check that the LHS and RHS contain the right things, or more
accurately don't contain the wrong things. Given that this has been
broken for years without anyone noticing, it seems sufficient to just
give up hashing when it happens, rather than go to the trouble of
commuting the clauses back again (which wouldn't necessarily work
anyway).
While poking at that, I also noticed that nodeSubplan.c had a baked-in
assumption that the number of hash clauses is identical to the number
of subquery output columns. Again, that's fine as far as parser output
goes, but it's not hard to break it via function inlining. There seems
little reason for that assumption though --- AFAICS, the only thing
it's buying us is not having to store the number of hash clauses
explicitly. Adding code to the planner to reject such cases would take
more code than getting nodeSubplan.c to cope, so I fixed it that way.
This has been broken for as long as we've had hashable SubPlans,

In the case of range partitioning, get_steps_using_prefix() assumes that
the passed-in prefix list contains at least one clause for each of the
partition keys earlier than one specified in the passed-in
step_lastkeyno, but the caller (ie, gen_prune_steps_from_opexps())
didn't take it into account, which led to a server crash or incorrect
results when the list contained no clauses for such partition keys, as

While at it, fix some other issues:
* The list to pass to get_steps_using_prefix() is allowed to contain
multiple clauses for the same partition key, as described in the
comment for that function, but that function actually assumed that the
list contained just a single clause for each of middle partition keys,
which led to an assertion failure when the list contained multiple
clauses for such partition keys. Update that function to match the
comment.
* In the case of hash partitioning, partition keys are allowed to be
NULL, in which case the list to pass to get_steps_using_prefix()
contains no clauses for NULL partition keys, but that function treats
that case as like the case of range partitioning, which led to the
assertion failure. Update the assertion test to take into account
NULL partition keys in the case of hash partitioning.
* Fix a typo in a comment in get_steps_using_prefix_recurse().
* gen_partprune_steps() failed to detect self-contradiction from
strict-qual clauses and an IS NULL clause for the same partition key
in some cases, producing incorrect partition-pruning steps, which led
to incorrect results of partition pruning, but didn't cause any

Making these leakproof seems helpful since (for example) if you have a

become non-leakproof when you apply it to an int4 or int2 column.
But that's what happens today, since the implicit up-coercion will
not be leakproof.
Most of the coercion functions that visibly can't throw errors are
functions that convert numeric datatypes to other, wider ones.
Notable is that float4_numeric and float8_numeric can be marked
leakproof; before commit a57d312a7 they could not have been.
I also marked the functions that coerce strings to "name" as leakproof;
that's okay today because they truncate silently, but if we ever
reconsidered that behavior then they could no longer be leakproof.
I desisted from marking rtrim1() as leakproof; it appears so right now,

Text search sometimes failed to find valid matches, for instance
'!crew:A'::tsquery might fail to locate 'crew:1B'::tsvector during
an index search. The root of the issue is that TS_execute's callback
functions were not changed to use ternary (yes/no/maybe) reporting
when we made the search logic itself do so. It's somewhat annoying
to break that API, but on the other hand we now see that any code
using plain boolean logic is almost certainly broken since the
addition of phrase search. There seem to be very few outside callers
of this code anyway, so we'll just break them intentionally to get
them to adapt.
This allows removal of tsginidx.c's private re-implementation of
TS_execute, since that's now entirely duplicative. It's also no

Add infinities that behave the same as they do in the floating-point
data types. Aside from any intrinsic usefulness these may have,
this closes an important gap in our ability to convert floating
values to numeric and/or replace float-based APIs with numeric.
The new values are represented by bit patterns that were formerly
not used (although old code probably would take them for NaNs).
So there shouldn't be any pg_upgrade hazard.

Many situations where the offset is infinity were not handled sanely.
We should generally allow the val versus base +/- offset comparison to
proceed according to the normal rules of IEEE arithmetic; however, we
must do something special for the corner cases where base +/- offset
would produce NaN due to subtracting two like-signed infinities.
That corresponds to asking which values infinitely precede +inf or
infinitely follow -inf, which should certainly be true of any finite
value or of the opposite-signed infinity. After some discussion it
seems that the best decision is to make it true of the same-signed
infinity as well, ie, just return constant TRUE if the calculation
would produce a NaN.
(We could write this with a bit less code by subtracting anyway,
and then checking for a NaN result. However, I prefer this
formulation because it'll be easier to transpose into numeric.c.)
Although this seems like clearly a bug fix with respect to finite
values, it is less obviously correct for infinite values. Between
that and the fact that the whole issue only arises for very strange
window specifications (e.g. RANGE BETWEEN 'inf' PRECEDING AND 'inf'
PRECEDING), I'll desist from back-patching.

Commit b9c130a1f failed to apply the publisher-to-subscriber column
mapping while checking which columns were updated. Perhaps less
significantly, it didn't exclude dropped columns either. This could
result in an incorrect updated-columns bitmap and thus wrong decisions
about whether to fire column-specific triggers on the subscriber while
applying updates. In HEAD (since commit 9de77b545), it could also
result in accesses off the end of the colstatus array, as detected by
buildfarm member skink. Fix the logic, and adjust 003_constraints.pl

In HEAD, also add some assertions to check that we don't access off

max_slot_wal_keep_size that was added in v13 and wal_keep_segments are
the GUC parameters to specify how much WAL files to retain for
the standby servers. While max_slot_wal_keep_size accepts the number of
bytes of WAL files, wal_keep_segments accepts the number of WAL files.
This difference of setting units between those similar parameters could
be confusing to users.
To alleviate this situation, this commit renames wal_keep_segments to
wal_keep_size, and make users specify the WAL size in it instead of
the number of WAL files.
There was also the idea to rename max_slot_wal_keep_size to
max_slot_wal_keep_segments, in the discussion. But we have been moving
away from measuring in segments, for example, checkpoint_segments was
replaced by max_wal_size. So we concluded to rename wal_keep_segments
to wal_keep_size.

Windows has junction points which function as symbolic links for
directories. This patch introduces a new function TestLib::dir_symlink()
which creates a junction point on Windows and a standard Unix type
symbolic link elsewhere.
The function TestLib::perl2host is also modified, first to use cygpath
where it's available (e.g. msys2) and second to allow it to succeed if
the gandparent directory exists but the parent does not.
Given these changes the only symlink tests that need to be skipped on
Windows are those related to permissions or to use of readlink. The
relevant tests for pg_basebackup and pg_rewind are therefore adjusted
accordingly.

When using the following functions, users could see various types of
errors of the type "cache lookup failed for OID XXX" with elog(), that
can only be used for internal errors:
* pg_describe_object()
* pg_identify_object()
* pg_identify_object_as_address()
The set of APIs managing object addresses for all object types are made
smarter by gaining a new argument "missing_ok" that allows any caller to
control if an error is raised or not on an undefined object. The SQL
functions listed above are changed to handle the case where an object is
missing.
Regression tests are added for all object types for the cases where
these are undefined. Before this commit, these cases failed with cache
lookup errors, and now they basically return NULL (minus the name of the
object type requested).

reparameterize_path_by_child() failed to reparameterize BitmapAnd
and BitmapOr paths. This matters only if such a path is chosen as
the inside of a nestloop partition-wise join, where we have to pass
in parameters from the outside of the nestloop. If that did happen,
we generated a bad plan that would likely lead to crashes at execution.
This is not entirely reparameterize_path_by_child()'s fault though;
it's the victim of an ancient decision (my ancient decision, I think)
to not bother filling in param_info in BitmapAnd/Or path nodes. That
caused the function to believe that such nodes and their children
contain no parameter references and so need not be processed.
In hindsight that decision looks pretty penny-wise and pound-foolish:
while it saves a few cycles during path node setup, we do commonly
need the information later. In particular, by reversing the decision
and requiring valid param_info data in all nodes of a bitmap path
tree, we can get rid of indxpath.c's get_bitmap_tree_required_outer()
function, which computed the data on-demand. It's not unlikely that
that nets out as a savings of cycles in many scenarios. A couple
of other things in indxpath.c can be simplified as well.
While here, get rid of some cases in reparameterize_path_by_child()
that are visibly dead or useless, given that we only care about
reparameterizing paths that can be on the inside of a parameterized
nestloop. This case reminds one of the maxim that untested code
probably does not work, so I'm unwilling to leave unreachable code
in this function. (I did leave the T_Gather case in place even
though it's not reached in the regression tests. It's not very
clear to me when the planner might prefer to put Gather below
rather than above a nestloop, but at least in principle the case
might be interesting.)

An ALTER TABLE to validate a foreign key in which another subcommand
already caused a pending table rewrite could fail due to ALTER TABLE
attempting to validate the foreign key before the actual table rewrite
takes place. This situation could result in an error such as:
ERROR: could not read block 0 in file "base/nnnnn/nnnnn": read only 0 of 8192 bytes
The failure here was due to the SPI call which validates the foreign key
trying to access an index which is yet to be rebuilt.
Similarly, we also incorrectly tried to validate CHECK constraints before
the heap had been rewritten.
The fix for both is to delay constraint validation until phase 3, after
the table has been rewritten. For CHECK constraints this means a slight
behavioral change. Previously ALTER TABLE VALIDATE CONSTRAINT on
inheritance tables would be validated from the bottom up. This was
different from the order of evaluation when a new CHECK constraint was
added. The changes made here aligns the VALIDATE CONSTRAINT evaluation
order for inheritance tables to be the same as ADD CONSTRAINT, which is
generally top-down.

The qual pushdown logic assumed that all Vars in a restriction clause
must be Vars referencing subquery outputs; but since we introduced
LATERAL, it's possible for such a Var to be a lateral reference instead.
This led to an assertion failure in debug builds. In a non-debug
build, there might be no ill effects (if qual_is_pushdown_safe decided
the qual was unsafe anyway), or we could get failures later due to
construction of an invalid plan. I've not gone to much length to
characterize the possible failures, but at least segfaults in the
executor have been observed.
Given that this has been busted since 9.3 and it took this long for
anybody to notice, I judge that the case isn't worth going to great

The IANA time zone folk have deprecated use of a "posixrules" file in
the tz database. While for now it's our choice whether to keep
supplying one in our own builds, installations built with

being present, at least on some platforms.
This causes a problem for the horology test, which expected the

savings rules. That does happen if the posixrules file supplies such
information, but otherwise the test produces undesired results.
To fix, add an explicit transition date rule that matches 2005 practice.

As s_lock_test, the already existing test for spinlocks, isn't run in
an automated fashion (and doesn't test a normal backend environment),
adding tests that are run as part of a normal regression run is a good
idea. Particularly in light of several recent and upcoming spinlock
related fixes.
Currently the new tests are run as part of the pre-existing
test_atomic_ops() test. That perhaps can be quibbled about, but for
now seems ok.
The only operations that s_lock_test tests but the new tests don't are
the detection of a stuck spinlock and S_LOCK_FREE (which is otherwise
unused, not implemented on all platforms, and will be removed).
This currently contains a test for more than INT_MAX spinlocks (only
run with --disable-spinlocks), to ensure the recent commit fixing a
bug with more than INT_MAX spinlock initializations is correct. That
test is somewhat slow, so we might want to disable it after a few

It might be worth retiring s_lock_test after this. The added coverage
of a stuck spinlock probably isn't worth the added complexity?

Per POSIX this case should produce +0, but buildfarm member fossa

Buildfarm results for commit decbe2bfb show that AIX and illumos
have non-POSIX-compliant pow() functions, as do ancient NetBSD
and HPUX releases. While it's dubious how much we should care
about the latter two platforms, the former two are probably enough
reason to put in manual handling of infinite-input cases. Hence,
do so, and clean up the post-pow() error handling to reflect its
now-more-limited scope. (Notably, while we no longer expect to
ever see EDOM from pow(), report it as a domain error if we do.
The former coding had the net effect of expensively converting the
error to ERANGE, which seems highly questionable: if pow() wanted
to report ERANGE, it would have done so.)

Previously, these functions tended to throw underflow errors for
negative-infinity exponents. The correct thing per POSIX is to
return 0, so let's do that instead. (Note that the SQL standard
is silent on such issues, as it lacks the concepts of either Inf
or NaN; so our practice is to follow POSIX whenever a corresponding
C-library function exists.)
Also, add a bunch of test cases verifying that exp() and power()
actually do follow POSIX for Inf and NaN inputs. While this patch

var_samp(numeric) and stddev_samp(numeric) disagreed with their float
cousins about what to do for a single non-null input value that is NaN.
The float versions return NULL on the grounds that the calculation is
only defined for more than one non-null input, which seems like the
right answer. But the numeric versions returned NaN, as a result of
dealing with edge cases in the wrong order. Fix that. The patch
also gets rid of an insignificant memory leak in such cases.
This inconsistency is of long standing, but on the whole it seems best
not to back-patch the change into stable branches; nobody's complained
and it's such an obscure point that nobody's likely to complain.
(Note that v13 and v12 now contain test cases that will notice if we
accidentally back-patch this behavior change in future.)

When there is just one non-null input value, and it is infinity or NaN,
aggregates such as stddev_pop and covar_pop should produce a NaN
result, because the calculation is not well-defined. They used to do
so, but since we adopted Youngs-Cramer aggregation in commit e954a727f,
they produced zero instead. That's an oversight, so fix it. Add tests
exercising these edge cases.
Affected aggregates are
var_pop(double precision)
stddev_pop(double precision)
var_pop(real)
stddev_pop(real)
regr_sxx(double precision,double precision)
regr_syy(double precision,double precision)

Using --outputdir with a custom output repository has never created by
default the sql/ and expected/ paths generated with contents from
respectively input/ and output/ if they don't exist, while the base
output directory gets created if it does not exist. If sql/ and
expected/ are not present, pg_regress would fail with the path missing,
requiring test scripts to create those extra paths by themselves. This
commit changes pg_regress so as both get created by default if they do
not exist, removing the need for external test scripts to do so.
This cleans up two code paths in the tree for pg_upgrade tests in MSVC

When merging two NumericAggStates, the code missed adding the new
state's NaNcount unless its N was also nonzero; since those counts
are independent, this is wrong.
This would only have visible effect if some partial aggregate scans
found only NaNs while earlier ones found only non-NaNs; then we could
end up falsely deciding that there were no NaNs and fail to return a
NaN final result as expected. That's pretty improbable, so it's no
surprise this hasn't been reported from the field. Still, it's a bug.
I didn't try to produce a regression test that would show the bug,
but I did notice that these functions weren't being reached at all
in our regression tests, so I improved the tests to at least
exercise them. With these additions, I see pretty complete code
coverage on the aggregation-related functions in numeric.c.
Back-patch to 9.6 where this code was introduced. (I only added
the improved test case as far back as v10, though, since the
relevant part of aggregates.sql isn't there at all in 9.6.)
Eliminate enable_groupingsets_hash_disk, which was primarily useful
for testing grouping sets that use HashAgg and spill. Instead, hack
the table stats to convince the planner to choose hashed aggregation
for grouping sets that will spill to disk. Suggested by Melanie
Plageman.
Rename enable_hashagg_disk to hashagg_avoid_disk_plan, and invert the
meaning of on/off. The new name indicates more strongly that it only
affects the planner. Also, the word "avoid" is less definite, which
should avoid surprises when HashAgg still needs to use the
disk. Change suggested by Justin Pryzby, though I chose a different
GUC name.

SSI's HeapCheckForSerializableConflictOut() test failed to correctly
handle conditions involving a concurrently inserted tuple which is later
concurrently updated by a separate transaction . A SELECT statement
that called HeapCheckForSerializableConflictOut() could end up using the
same XID (updater's XID) for both the original tuple, and the successor
tuple, missing the XID of the xact that created the original tuple
entirely. This only happened when neither tuple from the chain was
visible to the transaction's MVCC snapshot.
The observable symptoms of this bug were subtle. A pair of transactions
could commit, with the later transaction failing to observe the effects
of the earlier transaction (because of the confusion created by the
update to the non-visible row). This bug dates all the way back to
commit dafaa3ef, which added SSI.
To fix, make sure that we check the xmin of concurrently inserted tuples
that happen to also have been updated concurrently.

ineq_histogram_selectivity() can be invoked in situations where the
ordering we care about is not that of the column's histogram. We could
be considering some other collation, or even more drastically, the
query operator might not agree at all with what was used to construct
the histogram. (We'll get here for anything using scalarineqsel-based
estimators, so that's quite likely to happen for extension operators.)
Up to now we just ignored this issue and assumed we were dealing with
an operator/collation whose sort order exactly matches the histogram,
possibly resulting in junk estimates if the binary search gets confused.
It's past time to improve that, since the use of nondefault collations
is increasing. What we can do is verify that the given operator and
collation match what's recorded in pg_statistic, and use the existing
code only if so. When they don't match, instead execute the operator
against each histogram entry, and take the fraction of successes as our
selectivity estimate. This gives an estimate that is probably good to
about 1/histogram_size, with no assumptions about ordering. (The quality
of the estimate is likely to degrade near the ends of the value range,
since the two orderings probably don't agree on what is an extremal value;
but this is surely going to be more reliable than what we did before.)
At some point we might further improve matters by storing more than one
histogram calculated according to different orderings. But this code
would still be good fallback logic when no matches exist, so that is
not an argument for not doing this.
While here, also improve get_variable_range() to deal more honestly
with non-default collations.
This isn't back-patchable, because it requires adding another argument
to ineq_histogram_selectivity, and because it might have significant
impact on the estimation results for extension operators relying on
scalarineqsel --- mostly for the better, one hopes, but in any case
destabilizing plan choices in back branches is best avoided.

It's intentional that we don't allow values greater than 24 hours,
while we do allow "24:00:00" as well as "23:59:60" as inputs.
However, the range check was miscoded in such a way that it would
accept "23:59:60.nnn" with a nonzero fraction. For time or timetz,
the stored result would then be greater than "24:00:00" which would
fail dump/reload, not to mention possibly confusing other operations.
Fix by explicitly calculating the result and making sure it does not
exceed 24 hours. (This calculation is redundant with what will happen
later in tm2time or tm2timetz. Maybe someday somebody will find that
annoying enough to justify refactoring to avoid the duplication; but
that seems too invasive for a back-patched bug fix, and the cost is
probably unmeasurable anyway.)
Note that this change also rejects such input as the time portion
of a timestamp(tz) value.
Back-patch to v10. The bug is far older, but to change this pre-v10

A relation that has no storage initializes rd_tableam to NULL, which

These two functions are used by the Postgres ODBC driver, which requires
them only when connecting to a backend strictly older than 8.1. When
connected to 8.2 or a newer version, the driver uses a RETURNING clause
instead whose support has been added in 8.2, so it should be possible to

pg_recvlogical merely called PQfinish(), so the backend sent messages
after the disconnect. When that caused EPIPE in internal_flush(),
before a LogicalConfirmReceivedLocation(), the next pg_recvlogical would
repeat already-acknowledged records. Whether or not the defect causes
EPIPE, post-disconnect messages could contain an ErrorResponse that the

Queries such as '!(foo<->bar)' failed to find matching rows when
implemented as a GiST or GIN index search. That's because of
failing to handle phrase searches as tri-valued when considering
a query without any position information for the target tsvector.
We can only say that the phrase operator might match, not that it
does match; and therefore its NOT also might match. The previous
coding incorrectly inverted the approximate phrase result to
decide that there was certainly no match.
To fix, we need to make TS_phrase_execute return a real ternary result,
and then bubble that up accurately in TS_execute. As long as we have
to do that anyway, we can simplify the baroque things TS_phrase_execute
was doing internally to manage tri-valued searching with only a bool
as explicit result.
For now, I left the externally-visible result of TS_execute as a plain
bool. There do not appear to be any outside callers that need to
distinguish a three-way result, given that they passed in a flag
saying what to do in the absence of position data. This might need
to change someday, but we wouldn't want to back-patch such a change.
Although tsginidx.c has its own TS_execute_ternary implementation for

78ea8b5 has fixed an issue related to the recycling of WAL segments on
standbys depending on archive_mode. However, it has introduced a
regression with the handling of WAL segments ready to be archived during
crash recovery, causing those files to be recycled without getting
archived.
This commit fixes the regression by tracking in shared memory if a live
cluster is either in crash recovery or archive recovery as the handling
of WAL segments ready to be archived is different in both cases (those
WAL segments should not be removed during crash recovery), and by using
this new shared memory state to decide if a segment can be recycled or
not. Previously, it was not possible to know if a cluster was in crash
recovery or archive recovery as the shared state was able to track only
if recovery was happening or not, leading to the problem.
A set of TAP tests is added to close the gap here, making sure that WAL
segments ready to be archived are correctly handled when a cluster is in
archive or crash recovery with archive_mode set to "on" or "always", for
both standby and primary.

ALTER TABLE t ATTACH PARTITION t1 FOR VALUES FROM (1)TO(2);

The former is a bug introduced in commit 86f575948c. (The latter is
not necessarily a bug, but it makes the bug more uncomfortable.)
To avoid the complexity that would be needed to tell whether the trigger
has a local definition that has to be merged with the one coming from
the parent table, establish the behavior that the trigger is removed
when the table is detached.

Users who are concerned that they are affected by this should first

This code could produce very poor results when asked to highlight a
string based on a query using phrase-match operators. The root cause
is that hlCover(), which is supposed to find a minimal substring that
matches the query, was written assuming that word position is not
significant. I'm only 95% convinced that its algorithm was correct even
for plain AND/OR queries; but it definitely fails completely for phrase
matches, causing it to possibly not identify a cover string at all.
Hence, rewrite hlCover() with a less-tense algorithm that just tries
all the possible substrings, earlier and shorter ones first. (This is
not as bad as it sounds performance-wise, because all of the string
matching has been done already: the repeated tsquery match checks
boil down to pointer comparisons.)
Unfortunately, since that approach produces more candidate cover
strings than before, it also exposes that there were bugs in the
heuristics in mark_hl_words() for selecting a best cover string.
Fixes there include:
* Do not apply the ShortWord filter to words that appear in the query.
* Remove a misguided optimization for quickly rejecting a cover.
* Fix order-of-operation bug that could cause computation of a
wrong figure of merit (poslen) when shortening a cover.
* Change the preference rule so that candidate headlines that do not
include their whole cover string (after MaxWords trimming) are lowest
priority, since they may not actually satisfy the user's query.
This results in some changes in existing regression test cases,
but they all seem reasonable. Note in particular that the tests
involving strings like "1 2 3" were previously being affected by
the ShortWord filter, masking the normal matching behavior.
Per bug #16345 from Augustinas Jokubauskas; the new test cases are
based on that example. Back-patch to 9.6 where phrase search was
added to tsquery.

CREATE TABLE LIKE INCLUDING GENERATED would fail if a generated column
referred to a column with a higher attribute number. This is because
the column mapping mechanism created the mapping incrementally as
columns are added. This was sufficient for previous uses of that
mechanism (omitting dropped columns), and it also happened to work if
generated columns only referred to columns with lower attribute
numbers, but here it failed.
This fix is to build the attribute mapping in a separate loop before
processing the columns in detail.

Previously, the partitionwise join technique only allowed partitionwise
join when input partitioned tables had exactly the same partition
bounds. This commit extends the technique to some cases when the tables
have different partition bounds, by using an advanced partition-matching
algorithm introduced by this commit. For both the input partitioned
tables, the algorithm checks whether every partition of one input
partitioned table only matches one partition of the other input
partitioned table at most, and vice versa. In such a case the join
between the tables can be broken down into joins between the matching
partitions, so the algorithm produces the pairs of the matching
partitions, plus the partition bounds for the join relation, to allow
partitionwise join for computing the join. Currently, the algorithm
works for list-partitioned and range-partitioned tables, but not
hash-partitioned tables. See comments in partition_bounds_merge().

Since the existing bit number argument can't exceed INT32_MAX, it's
not possible for these functions to manipulate bits beyond the first
256MB of a bytea value. Lift that restriction by redeclaring the
bit number arguments as int8 (which requires a catversion bump,
hence is not back-patchable).
The similarly-named functions for bit/varbit don't really have a
problem because we restrict those types to at most VARBITMAXLEN bits;
hence leave them alone.
While here, extend the encode/decode functions in utils/adt/encode.c
to allow dealing with values wider than 1GB. This is not a live bug
or restriction in current usage, because no input could be more than
1GB, and since none of the encoders can expand a string more than 4X,
the result size couldn't overflow uint32. But it might be desirable
to support more in future, so make the input length values size_t
and the potential-output-length values uint64.
Also add some test cases to improve the miserable code coverage
of these functions.

Commit d2d8a229bc introduced Incremental Sort, but it was considered

are many other places that require sorted input and might benefit from
considering Incremental Sort too.
This patch modifies a number of those places, but not all. The concern
is that just adding Incremental Sort to any place that already adds
Sort may increase the number of paths considered, negatively affecting
planning time, without any benefit. So we've taken a more conservative

that did seem practical. This means some less common queries may not

define a new set of functions including pg_current_xact_id() and
pg_current_snapshot() based on that. Keep the old functions around too,

It's a bit sneaky to use the same C functions for both, but since the
binary representation is identical except for the signedness of the
type, and since older functions are the ones using the wrong signedness,
and since we'll presumably drop the older ones after a reasonable period
of time, it seems reasonable to switch to FullTransactionId internally
and share the code for both.

Incremental Sort is an optimized variant of multikey sort for cases when
the input is already sorted by a prefix of the requested sort keys. For
example when the relation is already sorted by (key1, key2) and we need
to sort it by (key1, key2, key3) we can simply split the input rows into
groups having equal values in (key1, key2), and only sort/compare the
remaining column key3.
This has a number of benefits:
- Reduced memory consumption, because only a single group (determined by
values in the sorted prefix) needs to be kept in memory. This may also
eliminate the need to spill to disk.
- Lower startup cost, because Incremental Sort produce results after each
prefix group, which is beneficial for plans where startup cost matters
(like for example queries with LIMIT clause).
We consider both Sort and Incremental Sort, and decide based on costing.
The implemented algorithm operates in two different modes:
- Fetching a minimum number of tuples without check of equality on the
prefix keys, and sorting on all columns when safe.
- Fetching all tuples for a single prefix group and then sorting by
comparing only the remaining (non-prefix) keys.
We always start in the first mode, and employ a heuristic to switch into
the second mode if we believe it's beneficial - the goal is to minimize
the number of unnecessary comparions while keeping memory consumption
below work_mem.
This is a very old patch series. The idea was originally proposed by
Alexander Korotkov back in 2013, and then revived in 2017. In 2018 the
patch was taken over by James Coleman, who wrote and rewrote most of the
current code.

Until now, only selected bulk operations (e.g. COPY) did this. If a
given relfilenode received both a WAL-skipping COPY and a WAL-logged
operation (e.g. INSERT), recovery could lose tuples from the COPY. See
src/backend/access/transam/README section "Skipping WAL for New
RelFileNode" for the new coding rules. Maintainers of table access
methods should examine that section.
To maintain data durability, just before commit, we choose between an
fsync of the relfilenode and copying its contents to WAL. A new GUC,
wal_skip_threshold, guides that choice. If this change slows a workload
that creates small, permanent relfilenodes under wal_level=minimal, try
adjusting wal_skip_threshold. Users setting a timeout on COMMIT may
need to adjust that timeout, and log_min_duration_statement analysis
will reflect time consumption moving to COMMIT from commands like COPY.
Internally, this requires a reliable determination of whether
RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction() would unlink a relation's
current relfilenode. Introduce rd_firstRelfilenodeSubid. Amend the
specification of rd_createSubid such that the field is zero when a new
rel has an old rd_node. Make relcache.c retain entries for certain
dropped relations until end of transaction.

entryGetItem()'s three code paths each contained bugs associated
with filtering the entries for gin_fuzzy_search_limit.
The posting-tree path failed to advance "advancePast" after having
decided to filter an item. If we ran out of items on the current
page and needed to advance to the next, what would actually happen
is that entryLoadMoreItems() would re-load the same page. Eventually,
the random dropItem() test would accept one of the same items it'd
previously rejected, and we'd move on --- but it could take awhile
with small gin_fuzzy_search_limit. To add insult to injury, this
case would inevitably cause entryLoadMoreItems() to decide it needed
to re-descend from the root, making things even slower.
The posting-list path failed to implement gin_fuzzy_search_limit
filtering at all, so that all entries in the posting list would
be returned.
The bitmap-result path used a "gotitem" variable that it failed to
update in the one place where it'd actually make a difference, ie
at the one "continue" statement. I think this was unreachable in
practice, because if we'd looped around then it shouldn't be the
case that the entries on the new page are before advancePast.
Still, the "gotitem" variable was contributing nothing to either
clarity or correctness, so get rid of it.
Refactor all three loops so that the termination conditions are
more alike and less unreadable.
The code coverage report showed that we had no coverage at all for
the re-descend-from-root code path in entryLoadMoreItems(), which
seems like a very bad thing, so add a test case that exercises it.

Instead of disabling autovacuum on these test tables, adjust the
partition boundaries so that the child partitions are not all the
same size. That should cause the planner to use a predictable
ordering of the per-partition scan nodes even in cases where
autovacuum causes the rowcount estimates to be off a bit.
Moreover, this also lets these tests show that the planner does
properly order the tables in descending size order, something
that wasn't being proven before.
The pagg_tab1 and pagg_tab2 partitions are still all the same
size, but that should be fine, because those tables are so small
that (1) autovacuum won't fire on them, and (2) even if it did,
it couldn't change the reltuples value --- with only one page,
it can't see just part of the relation.

In b07642dbc, we added code to trigger autovacuums based on the number of
INSERTs into a table. This seems to have cause some destabilization of
the regression tests. Likely this is due to an autovacuum triggering
mid-test and (per theory from Tom Lane) one of the test's queries causes
autovacuum to skip some number of pages, resulting in the reltuples
estimate changing.
The failure that this is attempting to fix is around the order of subnodes
in an Append. Since the planner orders these according to the subnode
cost, then it's possible that a small change in the reltuples value changes
the subnode's cost enough that it swaps position with one of its fellow
subnodes.
The failure here only seems to occur on slower buildfarm machines. In this
case, lousyjack, which seems have taken over 8 minutes to run just
the partitionwise_aggregate test. Such a slow run would increase the
chances that the autovacuum launcher would trigger a vacuum mid-test.
Faster machines run this test in sub second time, so have a much smaller
window for an autovacuum to trigger.
Here we fix this by disabling autovacuum on all tables created in the test.
Additionally, this reverts the change made in the
partitionwise_aggregate test in 2dc16efed.

There's a number of SLRU caches used to access important data like clog,
commit timestamps, multixact, asynchronous notifications, etc. Until now
we had no easy way to monitor these shared caches, compute hit ratios,
number of reads/writes etc.
This commit extends the statistics collector to track this information
for a predefined list of SLRUs, and also introduces a new system view
pg_stat_slru displaying the data.
The list of built-in SLRUs is fixed, but additional SLRUs may be defined
in extensions. Unfortunately, there's no suitable registry of SLRUs, so
this patch simply defines a fixed list of SLRUs with entries for the
built-in ones and one entry for all additional SLRUs. Extensions adding
their own SLRU are fairly rare, so this seems acceptable.
This patch only allows monitoring of SLRUs, not tuning. The SLRU sizes
are still fixed (hard-coded in the code) and it's not entirely clear
which of the SLRUs might need a GUC to tune size. In a way, allowing us
to determine that is one of the goals of this patch.

PostgreSQL provides set of template index access methods, where opclasses have
much freedom in the semantics of indexing. These index AMs are GiST, GIN,
SP-GiST and BRIN. There opclasses define representation of keys, operations on
them and supported search strategies. So, it's natural that opclasses may be
faced some tradeoffs, which require user-side decision. This commit implements
opclass parameters allowing users to set some values, which tell opclass how to
index the particular dataset.
This commit doesn't introduce new storage in system catalog. Instead it uses
pg_attribute.attoptions, which is used for table column storage options but
unused for index attributes.
In order to evade changing signature of each opclass support function, we
implement unified way to pass options to opclass support functions. Options
are set to fn_expr as the constant bytea expression. It's possible due to the
fact that opclass support functions are executed outside of expressions, so
fn_expr is unused for them.
This commit comes with some examples of opclass options usage. We parametrize
signature length in GiST. That applies to multiple opclasses: tsvector_ops,
gist__intbig_ops, gist_ltree_ops, gist__ltree_ops, gist_trgm_ops and
gist_hstore_ops. Also we parametrize maximum number of integer ranges for
gist__int_ops. However, the main future usage of this feature is expected
to be json, where users would be able to specify which way to index particular
json parts.

b07642dbc added code to trigger autovacuums based on the number of
inserts into a table. This seems to have caused some regression test
results to destabilize. I suspect this is due to autovacuum triggering a
vacuum sometime after the test's ANALYZE run and perhaps reltuples is
ending up being set to a slightly different value as a result.
Attempt to resolve this by running a VACUUM ANALYZE on the affected table
instead of just ANALYZE. pg_class.reltuples will still get set to whatever
ANALYZE chooses but we should no longer get the proceeding autovacuum
overriding that.
The overhead this adds to each test's runtime seems small enough not to
worry about. I measure 3-4% on stats_ext and can't measure any change in
partition_aggregate.
I'm unable to recreate the issue locally, so this is a bit of a blind

Instead of using Newton's method to compute numeric square roots, use
the Karatsuba square root algorithm, which performs better for numbers
of all sizes. In practice, this is 3-5 times faster for inputs with
just a few digits and up to around 10 times faster for larger inputs.
Also, the new algorithm guarantees that the final digit of the result
is correctly rounded, since it computes an integer square root with
truncation, containing at least 1 extra decimal digit before rounding.
The former algorithm would occasionally round the wrong way because
it rounded both the intermediate and final results.
In addition, arrange for sqrt_var() to explicitly support negative
rscale values (rounding before the decimal point). This allows the
argument reduction phase of ln_var() to be optimised for large inputs,
since it only needs to compute square roots with a few more digits
than the final ln() result, rather than computing all the digits
before the decimal point. For very large inputs, this can be many
thousands of times faster.
In passing, optimise div_var_fast() in a couple of places where it was
doing unnecessary work.

As of Windows 10 version 1803, Unix-domain sockets are supported on
Windows. But it's not automatically detected by configure because it
looks for struct sockaddr_un and Windows doesn't define that. So we
just make our own definition on Windows and override the configure
result.
Set DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR to empty on Windows so by default no
Unix-domain socket is used, because there is no good standard
location.
In pg_upgrade, we have to do some extra tweaking to preserve the
existing behavior of not using Unix-domain sockets on Windows. Adding
support would be desirable, but it needs further work, in particular a
way to select whether to use Unix-domain sockets from the command-line
or with a run-time test.
The pg_upgrade test script needs a fix. The previous code passed
"localhost" to postgres -k, which only happened to work because
Windows used to ignore the -k argument value altogether. We instead
need to pass an empty string to get the desired effect.
The test suites will continue to not use Unix-domain sockets on
Windows. This requires a small tweak in pg_regress.c. The TAP tests
don't need to be changed because they decide by the operating system
rather than HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS.

Formerly we applied a functional dependency "a => b with dependency
degree f" using the formula
P(a,b) = P(a) * [f + (1-f)*P(b)]
This leads to the possibility that the combined selectivity P(a,b)
could exceed P(b), which is not ideal. The addition of support for IN
and OR clauses (commits 8f321bd16c and ccaa3569f5) would seem to make
this more likely, since the user-supplied values in such clauses are
not necessarily compatible with the functional dependency.
Mitigate this by using the formula
P(a,b) = f * Min(P(a), P(b)) + (1-f) * P(a) * P(b)
instead, which guarantees that the combined selectivity is less than
each column's individual selectivity. Logically, this is modifies the
part of the formula that accounts for dependent rows to handle cases
where P(a) > P(b), whilst not changing the second term which accounts
for independent rows.
Additionally, this refactors the way that functional dependencies are
applied, so now dependencies_clauselist_selectivity() estimates both
the implying clauses and the implied clauses for each functional
dependency (formerly only the implied clauses were estimated), and now
all clauses for each attribute are taken into account (formerly only
one clause for each implied attribute was estimated). This removes the
previously built-in assumption that only equality clauses will be
seen, which is no longer true, and opens up the possibility of
applying functional dependencies to more general clauses.

Traditionally autovacuum has only ever invoked a worker based on the
estimated number of dead tuples in a table and for anti-wraparound
purposes. For the latter, with certain classes of tables such as
insert-only tables, anti-wraparound vacuums could be the first vacuum that
the table ever receives. This could often lead to autovacuum workers being
busy for extended periods of time due to having to potentially freeze
every page in the table. This could be particularly bad for very large
tables. New clusters, or recently pg_restored clusters could suffer even
more as many large tables may have the same relfrozenxid, which could
result in large numbers of tables requiring an anti-wraparound vacuum all
at once.
Here we aim to reduce the work required by anti-wraparound and aggressive
vacuums in general, by triggering autovacuum when the table has received
enough INSERTs. This is controlled by adding two new GUCs and reloptions;
autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold and
autovacuum_vacuum_insert_scale_factor. These work exactly the same as the
existing scale factor and threshold controls, only base themselves off the
number of inserts since the last vacuum, rather than the number of dead
tuples. New controls were added rather than reusing the existing
controls, to allow these new vacuums to be tuned independently and perhaps
even completely disabled altogether, which can be done by setting
autovacuum_vacuum_insert_threshold to -1.
We make no attempt to skip index cleanup operations on these vacuums as
they may trigger for an insert-mostly table which continually doesn't have
enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum for the purpose of removing
those dead tuples. If we were to skip cleaning the indexes in this case,
then it is possible for the index(es) to become bloated over time.
There are additional benefits to triggering autovacuums based on inserts,
as tables which never contain enough dead tuples to trigger an autovacuum
are now more likely to receive a vacuum, which can mark more of the table
as "allvisible" and encourage the query planner to make use of Index Only
Scans.
Currently, we still obey vacuum_freeze_min_age when triggering these new
autovacuums based on INSERTs. For large insert-only tables, it may be
beneficial to lower the table's autovacuum_freeze_min_age so that tuples
are eligible to be frozen sooner. Here we've opted not to zero that for
these types of vacuums, since the table may just be insert-mostly and we
may otherwise freeze tuples that are still destined to be updated or
removed in the near future.
There was some debate to what exactly the new scale factor and threshold
should default to. For now, these are set to 0.2 and 1000, respectively.
There may be some motivation to adjust these before the release.

This patch adds the pseudo-types anycompatible, anycompatiblearray,
anycompatiblenonarray, and anycompatiblerange. They work much like
anyelement, anyarray, anynonarray, and anyrange respectively, except
that the actual input values need not match precisely in type.
Instead, if we can find a common supertype (using the same rules
as for UNION/CASE type resolution), then the parser automatically
promotes the input values to that type. For example,
"myfunc(anycompatible, anycompatible)" can match a call with one
integer and one bigint argument, with the integer automatically
promoted to bigint. With anyelement in the definition, the user
would have had to cast the integer explicitly.
The new types also provide a second, independent set of type variables
for function matching; thus with "myfunc(anyelement, anyelement,
anycompatible) returns anycompatible" the first two arguments are
constrained to be the same type, but the third can be some other
type, and the result has the type of the third argument. The need
for more than one set of type variables was foreseen back when we
first invented the polymorphic types, but we never did anything
about it.

While performing hash aggregation, track memory usage when adding new
groups to a hash table. If the memory usage exceeds work_mem, enter
"spill mode".
In spill mode, new groups are not created in the hash table(s), but
existing groups continue to be advanced if input tuples match. Tuples
that would cause a new group to be created are instead spilled to a
logical tape to be processed later.
The tuples are spilled in a partitioned fashion. When all tuples from
the outer plan are processed (either by advancing the group or
spilling the tuple), finalize and emit the groups from the hash
table. Then, create new batches of work from the spilled partitions,
and select one of the saved batches and process it (possibly spilling

Since commit 8f321bd16c functional dependencies can handle IN clauses,
which however introduced a possible (and surprising) inconsistency,
because IN clauses may be expressed as an OR clause, which are still
considered incompatible. For example
a IN (1, 2, 3)
may be rewritten as
(a = 1 OR a = 2 OR a = 3)
The IN clause will work fine with functional dependencies, but the OR
clause will force the estimation to fall back to plain per-column
estimates, possibly introducing significant estimation errors.
This commit recognizes OR clauses equivalent to an IN clause (when all
arugments are compatible and reference the same attribute) as a special
case, compatible with functional dependencies. This allows applying
functional dependencies, just like for IN clauses.
This does not eliminate the difference in estimating the clause itself,
i.e. IN clause and OR clause still use different formulas. It would be
possible to change that (for these special OR clauses), but that's not
really about extended statistics - it was always like this. Moreover the
errors are usually much smaller compared to ignoring dependencies.

pg_proc.c and pg_aggregate.c had near-duplicate copies of the logic
to decide whether a function or aggregate's signature is legal.
This seems like a bad thing even without the problem that the
upcoming "anycompatible" patch would roughly double the complexity
of that logic. Hence, refactor so that the rules are localized
in new subroutines supplied by parse_coerce.c. (One could quibble
about just where to add that code, but putting it beside
enforce_generic_type_consistency seems not totally unreasonable.)
The fact that the rules are about to change would mandate some
changes in the wording of the associated error messages in any case.
I ended up spelling things out in a fairly literal fashion in the
errdetail messages, eg "A result of type anyelement requires at
least one input of type anyelement, anyarray, anynonarray, anyenum,
or anyrange." Perhaps this is overkill, but once there's more than
one subgroup of polymorphic types, people might get confused by
more-abstract messages.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/24137.1584139352@sss.pgh.pa.us
Ordinarily it's impossible for an actual input of a function to have
declared type ANYARRAY, since we'd resolve that to a concrete array
type before doing argument type resolution for the function. But an
exception arises for functions applied to certain columns of pg_statistic
or pg_stats, since we abuse the "anyarray" pseudotype by using it to
declare those columns. So parse_coerce.c has to deal with the case.
Previously we allowed an ANYARRAY actual input to match an ANYARRAY
polymorphic argument, but only if no other argument or result was
declared ANYELEMENT. When that logic was written, those were the only
two polymorphic types, and I fear nobody thought carefully about how it
ought to extend to the other ones that came along later. But actually
it was wrong even then, because if a function has two ANYARRAY
arguments, it should be able to expect that they have identical element
types, and we'd not be able to ensure that.
The correct generalization is that we can match an ANYARRAY actual input
to an ANYARRAY polymorphic argument only if no other argument or result
is of any polymorphic type, so that no promises are being made about
element type compatibility. check_generic_type_consistency can't test
that condition, but it seems better anyway to accept such matches there
and then throw an error if needed in enforce_generic_type_consistency.
That way we can produce a specific error message rather than an
unintuitive "function does not exist" complaint. (There's some risk
perhaps of getting new ambiguous-function complaints, but I think that
any set of functions for which that could happen would be ambiguous
against ordinary array columns as well.) While we're at it, we can
improve the message that's produced in cases that the code did already
object to, as shown in the regression test changes.
Also, remove a similar test that got cargo-culted in for ANYRANGE;
there are no catalog columns of type ANYRANGE, and I hope we never
create any, so that's not needed. (It was incomplete anyway.)
While here, update some comments and rearrange the code a bit in
preparation for upcoming additions of more polymorphic types.
In practical situations I believe this is just exchanging one error
message for another, hopefully better, one. So it doesn't seem
needful to back-patch, even though the mistake is ancient.

It is possible to reach check_sql_fn_retval() with an unresolved
polymorphic rettype, resulting in an assertion failure as demonstrated
by one of the added test cases. However, the code following that
throws what seems an acceptable error message, so just remove the
Assert and adjust commentary.
While here, I thought it'd be a good idea to provide some parallel
tests of SQL-function and PL/pgSQL-function polymorphism behavior.
Some of these cases are perhaps duplicative of tests elsewhere,
but we hadn't any organized coverage of the topic AFAICS.
Although that assertion's been wrong all along, it won't have any
effect in production builds, so I'm not bothering to back-patch.

The regression tests for extended statistics were not testing a couple
of important cases for the MCV lists:
* IS NOT NULL clauses - We did have queries with IS NULL clauses, but
not the negative case.
* clauses with variable on the right - All the clauses had the Var on
the left, i.e. (Var op Const), so this adds (Const op Var) too.
* columns with fixed-length types passed by reference - All columns
were using either by-value or varlena types, so add a test with
UUID columns too. This matters for (de)serialization.
* NULL-only dimension - When one of the columns contains only NULL
values, we treat it a a special case during (de)serialization.
* arrays containing NULL - When the constant parameter contains NULL
value, we need to handle it correctly during estimation, for all
IN, ANY and ALL clauses.

resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and resolve_polymorphic_argtypes() failed to
cover the case of having to resolve anyarray given only an anyrange input.
The bug was masked if anyelement was also used (as either input or
output), which probably helps account for our not having noticed.
While looking at this I noticed that resolve_generic_type() would produce
the wrong answer if asked to make that same resolution. ISTM that
resolve_generic_type() is confusingly defined and overly complex, so
rather than fix it, let's just make funcapi.c do the specific lookups
it requires for itself.
With this change, resolve_generic_type() is not used anywhere, so remove
it in HEAD. In the back branches, leave it alone (complete with bug)
just in case any external code is using it.
While we're here, make some other refactoring adjustments in funcapi.c
with an eye to upcoming future expansion of the set of polymorphic types:
* Simplify quick-exit tests by adding an overall have_polymorphic_result
flag. This is about a wash now but will be a win when there are more
flags.
* Reduce duplication of code between resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and
resolve_polymorphic_argtypes().
* Don't bother to validate correct matching of anynonarray or anyenum;
the parser should have done that, and even if it didn't, just doing
"return false" here would lead to a very confusing, off-point error
message. (Really, "return false" in these two functions should only
occur if the call_expr isn't supplied or we can't obtain data type
info from it.)
* For the same reason, throw an elog rather than "return false" if
we fail to resolve a polymorphic type.
The bug's been there since we added anyrange, so back-patch to

Until now functional dependencies supported only simple equality clauses
and clauses that can be trivially translated to equalities. This commit
allows estimation of some ScalarArrayOpExpr (IN/ANY) clauses.
For IN clauses we can do this thanks to using operator with equality
semantics, which means an IN clause
WHERE c IN (1, 2, ..., N)
can be translated to
WHERE (c = 1 OR c = 2 OR ... OR c = N)
IN clauses are now considered compatible with functional dependencies,
and rely on the same assumption of consistency of queries with data
(which is an assumption we already used for simple equality clauses).
This applies also to ALL clauses with an equality operator, which can be
considered equivalent to IN clause.
ALL clauses are still considered incompatible, although there's some
discussion about maybe relaxing this in the future.

This coding technique is undesirable because (a) it leaks the FD for
the rest of the transaction if the SRF is not run to completion, and
(b) allocated FDs are a scarce resource, but multiple interleaved
uses of the relevant functions could eat many such FDs.
In v11 and later, a query such as "SELECT pg_ls_waldir() LIMIT 1"
yields a warning about the leaked FD, and the only reason there's
no warning in earlier branches is that fd.c didn't whine about such
leaks before commit 9cb7db3f0. Even disregarding the warning, it
wouldn't be too hard to run a backend out of FDs with careless use

Previously, this code just smashed all types of DefElem values to
strings, cavalierly reasoning that nobody would care. But in point of
fact, most of the defGetFoo functions do distinguish among different
input syntaxes; for instance defGetBoolean will accept 1 as an integer
but not "1" as a string. This led to CREATE/ALTER TEXT SEARCH
DICTIONARY accepting 0 and 1 as values for boolean dictionary
properties, only to have the dictionary fail at runtime.
We can upgrade this behavior by teaching serialize_deflist that it
does not need to quote T_Integer or T_Float nodes' values on output,
and then teaching deserialize_deflist to restore unquoted integer or
float values as the appropriate node type. This should not break
anything using pg_ts_dict.dictinitoption, since that field is just
defined as being something valid to include in CREATE TEXT SEARCH
DICTIONARY.
deserialize_deflist is also used to parse the options arguments
for the ts_headline family of functions, but so far as I can see
this won't cause any problems there either: the only consumer of
that output is prsd_headline which always uses defGetString.
(Really that's a bad idea, but I won't risk changing it here.)
This is surely a bug fix, but given the lack of field complaints
I don't think it's necessary to back-patch.

SQL includes provisions for numeric Unicode escapes in string

This patch adjusts things so that we'll call the appropriate
encoding conversion function in less-trivial cases, allowing
the escape sequence to be accepted so long as it corresponds
to some character available in the server encoding.
This also applies to processing of Unicode escapes in JSONB.
However, the old restriction still applies to client-side
JSON processing, since that hasn't got access to the server's
encoding conversion infrastructure.
This patch includes some lexer infrastructure that simplifies
throwing errors with error cursors pointing into the middle of

Specifically, this patch allows ALTER TYPE to:
* Change the default TOAST strategy for a toastable base type;
* Promote a non-toastable type to toastable;
* Add/remove binary I/O functions for a type;
* Add/remove typmod I/O functions for a type;
* Add/remove a custom ANALYZE statistics functions for a type.
The first of these can be done by the type's owner; all the others
require superuser privilege since misuse could cause problems.
The main motivation for this patch is to allow extensions to
upgrade the feature sets of their data types, so the set of
alterable properties is biased towards that use-case. However
it's also true that changing some other properties would be
a lot harder, as they get baked into physical storage and/or
stored expressions that depend on the type.
Along the way, refactor GenerateTypeDependencies() to make it easier
to call, refactor DefineType's volatility checks so they can be shared
by AlterType, and teach typcache.c that it might have to reload data
from the type's pg_type row, a scenario it never handled before.
Also rearrange alter_type.sgml a bit for clarity (put the

A long time ago, it was necessary to declare datatype I/O functions,
triggers, and language handler support functions in a very type-unsafe
way involving a single pseudo-type "opaque". We got rid of those
conventions in 7.3, but there was still support in various places to
automatically convert such functions to the modern declaration style,
to be able to transparently re-load dumps from pre-7.3 servers.
It seems unnecessary to continue to support that anymore, so take out
the hacks; whereupon the "opaque" pseudo-type itself is no longer
needed and can be dropped.
This is part of a group of patches removing various server-side kluges
for transparently upgrading pre-8.0 dump files. Since we've had few
complaints about dropping pg_dump's support for dumping from pre-8.0
servers (commit 64f3524e2), it seems okay to now remove these kluges.

Deduplication reduces the storage overhead of duplicates in indexes that
use the standard nbtree index access method. The deduplication process
is applied lazily, after the point where opportunistic deletion of
LP_DEAD-marked index tuples occurs. Deduplication is only applied at
the point where a leaf page split would otherwise be required. New
posting list tuples are formed by merging together existing duplicate
tuples. The physical representation of the items on an nbtree leaf page
is made more space efficient by deduplication, but the logical contents
of the page are not changed. Even unique indexes make use of
deduplication as a way of controlling bloat from duplicates whose TIDs
point to different versions of the same logical table row.
The lazy approach taken by nbtree has significant advantages over a GIN
style eager approach. Most individual inserts of index tuples have
exactly the same overhead as before. The extra overhead of
deduplication is amortized across insertions, just like the overhead of
page splits. The key space of indexes works in the same way as it has
since commit dd299df8 (the commit that made heap TID a tiebreaker
column).
Testing has shown that nbtree deduplication can generally make indexes
with about 10 or 15 tuples for each distinct key value about 2.5X - 4X
smaller, even with single column integer indexes (e.g., an index on a
referencing column that accompanies a foreign key). The final size of
single column nbtree indexes comes close to the final size of a similar
contrib/btree_gin index, at least in cases where GIN's posting list
compression isn't very effective. This can significantly improve
transaction throughput, and significantly reduce the cost of vacuuming
indexes.
A new index storage parameter (deduplicate_items) controls the use of
deduplication. The default setting is 'on', so all new B-Tree indexes
automatically use deduplication where possible. This decision will be
reviewed at the end of the Postgres 13 beta period.
There is a regression of approximately 2% of transaction throughput with
synthetic workloads that consist of append-only inserts into a table
with several non-unique indexes, where all indexes have few or no
repeated values. The underlying issue is that cycles are wasted on
unsuccessful attempts at deduplicating items in non-unique indexes.
There doesn't seem to be a way around it short of disabling
deduplication entirely. Note that deduplication of items in unique
indexes is fairly well targeted in general, which avoids the problem
there (we can use a special heuristic to trigger deduplication passes in
unique indexes, since we're specifically targeting "version bloat").
Bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC because xl_btree_vacuum changed.
No bump in BTREE_VERSION, since the representation of posting list
tuples works in a way that's backwards compatible with version 4 indexes
(i.e. indexes built on PostgreSQL 12). However, users must still
REINDEX a pg_upgrade'd index to use deduplication, regardless of the
Postgres version they've upgraded from. This is the only way to set the
new nbtree metapage flag indicating that deduplication is generally
safe.

Andres Freund pointed out that allowing non-superusers to run
"CREATE EXTENSION ... FROM unpackaged" has security risks, since
the unpackaged-to-1.0 scripts don't try to verify that the existing
objects they're modifying are what they expect. Just attaching such
objects to an extension doesn't seem too dangerous, but some of them
do more than that.
We could have resolved this, perhaps, by still requiring superuser
privilege to use the FROM option. However, it's fair to ask just what
we're accomplishing by continuing to lug the unpackaged-to-1.0 scripts
forward. None of them have received any real testing since 9.1 days,
so they may not even work anymore (even assuming that one could still
load the previous "loose" object definitions into a v13 database).
And an installation that's trying to go from pre-9.1 to v13 or later
in one jump is going to have worse compatibility problems than whether
there's a trivial way to convert their contrib modules into extension
style.
Hence, let's just drop both those scripts and the core-code support
for "CREATE EXTENSION ... FROM".

The function hash table keys made by compute_function_hashkey() failed
to distinguish event-trigger call context from regular call context.
This meant that once we'd successfully made a hash entry for an event
trigger (either by validation, or by normal use as an event trigger),
an attempt to call the trigger function as a plain function would
find this hash entry and thereby bypass the you-can't-do-that check in
do_compile(). Thus we'd attempt to execute the function, leading to
strange errors or even crashes, depending on function contents and
server version.
To fix, add an isEventTrigger field to PLpgSQL_func_hashkey,
paralleling the longstanding infrastructure for regular triggers.
This fits into what had been pad space, so there's no risk of an ABI
break, even assuming that any third-party code is looking at these
hash keys. (I considered replacing isTrigger with a PLpgSQL_trigtype
enum field, but felt that that carried some API/ABI risk. Maybe we
should change it in HEAD though.)
Per bug #16266 from Alexander Lakhin. This has been broken since
event triggers were invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Looks like guaibasaurus had a autovacuum running during the

43e0841970). Which does indeed seem quite possible.
Avoid the problem by only looking for the backends participating in

Previously, the speculative insert tests did not cover the case when a
tuple t is inserted into a table with a unique index on a column but
before it can insert into the index, a concurrent transaction has
inserted a conflicting value into the index and the insertion of tuple t
must be aborted.
The basic permutation is one session successfully inserts into the table
and an associated unique index while a concurrent session successfully
inserts into the table but discovers a conflict before inserting into
the index and must abort the insertion.
Several variants on this include:
- swap which session is successful
- first session insert transaction does not commit, so second session
must wait on a transaction lock
- first session insert does not "complete", so second session must wait
on a speculative insertion lock
Also, refactor the existing TOAST table upsert test to be in the same

On a multi-level partioned table, when adding a partition not directly
connected to the root table, foreign key constraints referencing the
root were not cloned to the new partition, leading to the FK being
possibly inadvertently violated later on.
This was caused by fuzzy thinking in CloneFkReferenced (commit
f56f8f8da6): it was skipping constraints marked as having parents on
the theory that cloning those would create duplicates; but that's only
correct for the top level of the partitioning hierarchy. For levels
below that one, such constraints must still be considered and only
skipped if later on we see that we'd create duplicates. Apparently, I

Tuple conversion incorrectly concluded that no conversion was needed
as long as all the attributes lined up. But if the source tuple has a
missing attribute (from addition of a column with default), then the
destination tupdesc might not reflect the same default. The typical

Commit 499be013d added this field in a rather poorly-thought-through
manner, with the result being that rather than being a field of the
Append or MergeAppend plan node as intended (and as it seems to be,
in text format), it was actually an element of the "Plans" subgroup.
At least in JSON format, that's flat out invalid syntax, because
"Plans" is an array not an object.
While it's not hard to move the generation of the field so that it
appears where it's supposed to, this does result in a visible change
in field order in text format, in cases where a Append or MergeAppend
plan node has any InitPlans attached. That's slightly annoying to
do in stable branches; but the alternative of continuing to emit
broken non-text formats seems worse.
Also, since the set of fields emitted is not supposed to be
data-dependent in non-text formats, make sure that "Subplans Removed"
appears in Append and MergeAppend nodes even when it's zero, in those
formats. (The previous coding made it look like it could appear in
some other node types such as BitmapAnd, but we don't actually support
runtime pruning there, so don't emit it in those cases.)

This patch creates a new extension property, "trusted". An extension
that's marked that way in its control file can be installed by a
non-superuser who has the CREATE privilege on the current database,
even if the extension contains objects that normally would have to be
created by a superuser. The objects within the extension will (by
default) be owned by the bootstrap superuser, but the extension itself
will be owned by the calling user. This allows replicating the old
behavior around trusted procedural languages, without all the
special-case logic in CREATE LANGUAGE. We have, however, chosen to
loosen the rules slightly: formerly, only a database owner could take
advantage of the special case that allowed installation of a trusted
language, but now anyone who has CREATE privilege can do so.
Having done that, we can delete the pg_pltemplate catalog, moving the
knowledge it contained into the extension script files for the various
PLs. This ends up being no change at all for the in-core PLs, but it is
a large step forward for external PLs: they can now have the same ease
of installation as core PLs do. The old "trusted PL" behavior was only
available to PLs that had entries in pg_pltemplate, but now any
extension can be marked trusted if appropriate.
This also removes one of the stumbling blocks for our Python 2 -> 3
migration, since the association of "plpythonu" with Python 2 is no
longer hard-wired into pg_pltemplate's initial contents. Exactly where
we go from here on that front remains to be settled, but one problem
is fixed.

EvalPlanQualStart() supposed that it could re-use the relsubs_rowmark
and relsubs_done arrays from a prior instantiation. But since they are
allocated in the es_query_cxt of the recheckestate, that's just wrong;
EvalPlanQualEnd() will blow away that storage. Therefore we were using
storage that could have been reallocated to something else, causing all
sorts of havoc.
I think this was modeled on the old code's handling of es_epqTupleSlot,
but since the code was anyway clearing the arrays at re-use, there's
clearly no expectation of importing any outside state. So it's just
a dubious savings of a couple of pallocs, which is negligible compared
to setting up a new planstate tree. Therefore, just allocate the
arrays always. (I moved the allocations slightly for readability.)
In principle this bug could cause a problem whenever EPQ rechecks are
needed in more than one target table of a ModifyTable plan node.
In practice it seems not quite so easy to trigger as that; I couldn't
readily duplicate a crash with a partitioned target table, for instance.
That's probably down to incidental choices about when to free or
reallocate stuff. The added isolation test case does seem to reliably
show an assertion failure, though.

Previously, it was possible for EXPLAIN ANALYZE of a parallel query
to produce several different "Workers" fields for a single plan node,
because different portions of explain.c independently generated
per-worker data and wrapped that output in separate fields. This
is pretty bogus, especially for the structured output formats: even
if it's not technically illegal, most programs would have a hard time
dealing with such data.
To improve matters, add infrastructure that allows redirecting
per-worker values into a side data structure, and then collect that
data into a single "Workers" field after we've finished running all
the relevant code for a given plan node.
There are a few visible side-effects:
* In text format, instead of something like
Sort Method: external merge Disk: 4920kB
Worker 0: Sort Method: external merge Disk: 5880kB
Worker 1: Sort Method: external merge Disk: 5920kB
Buffers: shared hit=682 read=10188, temp read=1415 written=2101
Worker 0: actual time=130.058..130.324 rows=1324 loops=1
Buffers: shared hit=337 read=3489, temp read=505 written=739
Worker 1: actual time=130.273..130.512 rows=1297 loops=1
Buffers: shared hit=345 read=3507, temp read=505 written=744
you get
Sort Method: external merge Disk: 4920kB

Worker 0: actual time=130.058..130.324 rows=1324 loops=1

* When JIT is enabled, any relevant per-worker JIT stats are attached
to the child node of the Gather or Gather Merge node, which is where
the other per-worker output has always been. Previously, that info
was attached directly to a Gather node, or missed entirely for Gather
Merge.
* A query's summary JIT data no longer includes a bogus
"Worker Number: -1" field.
A notable code-level change is that indenting for lines of text-format
output should now be handled by calling "ExplainIndentText(es)",
instead of hard-wiring how much space to emit. This seems a good deal
cleaner anyway.
This patch also adds a new "explain.sql" regression test script that's
dedicated to testing EXPLAIN. There is more that can be done in that
line, certainly, but for now it just adds some coverage of the XML and
YAML output formats, which had been completely untested.
Although this is surely a bug fix, it's not clear that people would
be happy with rearranging EXPLAIN output in a minor release, so apply
to HEAD only.

I had supposed that the from_char_seq_search() call sites were
all passing the constant arrays you'd expect them to pass ...
but on looking closer, the one for DY format was passing the
days[] array not days_short[]. This accidentally worked because
the day abbreviations in English are all the same as the first
three letters of the full day names. However, once we took out
the "maximum comparison length" logic, it stopped working.
As penance for that oversight, add regression test cases covering
this, as well as every other switch case in DCH_from_char() that
was not reached according to the code coverage report.
Also, fold the DCH_RM and DCH_rm cases into one --- now that
seq_search is case independent, there's no need to pass different
comparison arrays for those cases.
Back-patch, as the previous commit was.
seq_search(), which is used to match input substrings to constants
such as month and day names, had a lot of bizarre and unnecessary
behaviors. It was mostly possible to avert our eyes from that before,
but we don't want to duplicate those behaviors in the upcoming patch
to allow recognition of non-English month and day names. So it's time
to clean this up. In particular:
* seq_search scribbled on the input string, which is a pretty dangerous
thing to do, especially in the badly underdocumented way it was done here.
Fortunately the input string is a temporary copy, but that was being made
three subroutine levels away, making it something easy to break
accidentally. The behavior is externally visible nonetheless, in the form
of odd case-folding in error reports about unrecognized month/day names.
The scribbling is evidently being done to save a few calls to pg_tolower,
but that's such a cheap function (at least for ASCII data) that it's
pretty pointless to worry about. In HEAD I switched it to be
pg_ascii_tolower to ensure it is cheap in all cases; but there are corner
cases in Turkish where this'd change behavior, so leave it as pg_tolower
in the back branches.
* seq_search insisted on knowing the case form (all-upper, all-lower,
or initcap) of the constant strings, so that it didn't have to case-fold
them to perform case-insensitive comparisons. This likewise seems like
excessive micro-optimization, given that pg_tolower is certainly very
cheap for ASCII data. It seems unsafe to assume that we know the case
form that will come out of pg_locale.c for localized month/day names, so
it's better just to define the comparison rule as "downcase all strings
before comparing". (The choice between downcasing and upcasing is
arbitrary so far as English is concerned, but it might not be in other
locales, so follow citext's lead here.)
* seq_search also had a parameter that'd cause it to report a match
after a maximum number of characters, even if the constant string were
longer than that. This was not actually used because no caller passed
a value small enough to cut off a comparison. Replicating that behavior
for localized month/day names seems expensive as well as useless, so
let's get rid of that too.
* from_char_seq_search used the maximum-length parameter to truncate
the input string in error reports about not finding a matching name.
This leads to rather confusing reports in many cases. Worse, it is
outright dangerous if the input string isn't all-ASCII, because we
risk truncating the string in the middle of a multibyte character.
That'd lead either to delivering an illegible error message to the
client, or to encoding-conversion failures that obscure the actual
data problem. Get rid of that in favor of truncating at whitespace
if any (a suggestion due to Alvaro Herrera).
In addition to fixing these things, I const-ified the input string
pointers of DCH_from_char and its subroutines, to make sure there
aren't any other scribbling-on-input problems.
The risk of generating a badly-encoded error message seems like
enough of a bug to justify back-patching, so patch all supported
branches.

This test case was sketched in commit message 4c87010981 to explain an
ancient bug; it translates to a coverage increase, so add it to the BRIN
regression tests.
Attempting to use CREATE INDEX, DROP INDEX or REINDEX with CONCURRENTLY
on a temporary relation with ON COMMIT actions triggered unexpected
errors because those operations use multiple transactions internally to
complete their work. Here is for example one confusing error when using
ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS:
ERROR: index "foo" already contains data
Issues related to temporary relations and concurrent indexing are fixed
in this commit by enforcing the non-concurrent path to be taken for
temporary relations even if using CONCURRENTLY, transparently to the
user. Using a non-concurrent path does not matter in practice as locks
cannot be taken on a temporary relation by a session different than the
one owning the relation, and the non-concurrent operation is more
effective.
The problem exists with REINDEX since v12 with the introduction of
CONCURRENTLY, and with CREATE/DROP INDEX since CONCURRENTLY exists for
those commands. In all supported versions, this caused only confusing
error messages to be generated. Note that with REINDEX, it was also
possible to issue a REINDEX CONCURRENTLY for a temporary relation owned
by a different session, leading to a server crash.
The idea to enforce transparently the non-concurrent code path for
temporary relations comes originally from Andres Freund.

The behavior of something like
ALTER TABLE transactions
ADD COLUMN status varchar(30) DEFAULT 'old',
ALTER COLUMN status SET default 'current';
is to fill existing table rows with 'old', not 'current'. That's
intentional and desirable for a couple of reasons:
* It makes the behavior the same whether you merge the sub-commands
into one ALTER command or give them separately;
* If we applied the new default while filling the table, there would
be no way to get the existing behavior in one SQL command.
The same reasoning applies in cases that add a column and then
manipulate its GENERATED/IDENTITY status in a second sub-command,
since the generation expression is really just a kind of default.
However, that wasn't very obvious (at least not to me; earlier in
the referenced discussion thread I'd thought it was a bug to be
fixed). And it certainly wasn't documented.
Hence, add documentation, code comments, and a test case to clarify
that this behavior is all intentional.
In passing, adjust ATExecAddColumn's defaults-related relkind check
so that it matches up exactly with ATRewriteTables, instead of being
effectively (though not literally) the negated inverse condition.
The reasoning can be explained a lot more concisely that way, too
(not to mention that the comment now matches the code, which it

This feature allows the vacuum to leverage multiple CPUs in order to
process indexes. This enables us to perform index vacuuming and index
cleanup with background workers. This adds a PARALLEL option to VACUUM
command where the user can specify the number of workers that can be used
to perform the command which is limited by the number of indexes on a

This option can't be used with the FULL option.
Each index is processed by at most one vacuum process. Therefore parallel
vacuum can be used when the table has at least two indexes.
The parallel degree is either specified by the user or determined based on
the number of indexes that the table has, and further limited by
max_parallel_maintenance_workers. The index can participate in parallel
vacuum iff it's size is greater than min_parallel_index_scan_size.

Mixing incorrect bounds set in the SSL context leads to confusing error
messages generated by OpenSSL which are hard to act on. New checks are
added within the GUC machinery to improve the user experience as they

The strategy of GIN index scan is driven by opclass-specific extract_query
method. This method that needed search mode is GIN_SEARCH_MODE_ALL. This
mode means that matching tuple may contain none of extracted entries. Simple
example is '!term' tsquery, which doesn't need any term to exist in matching
tsvector.
In order to handle such scan key GIN calculates virtual entry, which contains
all TIDs of all entries of attribute. In fact this is full scan of index
attribute. And typically this is very slow, but allows to handle some queries
correctly in GIN. However, current algorithm calculate such virtual entry for
each GIN_SEARCH_MODE_ALL scan key even if they are multiple for the same
attribute. This is clearly not optimal.
This commit improves the situation by introduction of "exclude only" scan keys.
Such scan keys are not capable to return set of matching TIDs. Instead, they
are capable only to filter TIDs produced by normal scan keys. Therefore,
each attribute should contain at least one normal scan key, while rest of them
may be "exclude only" if search mode is GIN_SEARCH_MODE_ALL.
The same optimization might be applied to the whole scan, not per-attribute.
But that leads to NULL values elimination problem. There is trade-off between
multiple possible ways to do this. We probably want to do this later using
some cost-based decision algorithm.

Commit 9b63c13f0 turns out to have been fundamentally misguided:
the parent node's subPlan list is by no means the only way in which
a child SubPlan node can be hooked into the outer execution state.
As shown in bug #16213 from Matt Jibson, we can also get short-lived
tuple table slots added to the outer es_tupleTable list. At this point
I have little faith that there aren't other possible connections as
well; the long time it took to notice this problem shows that this
isn't a heavily-exercised situation.
Therefore, revert that fix, returning to the coding that passed a
NULL parent plan pointer down to the transiently-built subexpressions.
That gives us a pretty good guarantee that they won't hook into the
outer executor state in any way. But then we need some other solution
to make SubPlans work. Adopt the solution speculated about in the
previous commit's log message: do expression initialization at plan
startup for just those VALUES rows containing SubPlans, abandoning the
goal of reclaiming memory intra-query for those rows. In practice it
seems unlikely that queries containing a vast number of VALUES rows
would be using SubPlans in them, so this should not give up much.
(BTW, this test case also refutes my claim in connection with the prior
commit that the issue only arises with use of LATERAL. That was just
wrong: some variants of SubLink always produce SubPlans.)

We've had numerous bug reports about how (1) IF NOT EXISTS clauses in
ALTER TABLE don't behave as-expected, and (2) combining certain actions
into one ALTER TABLE doesn't work, though executing the same actions as
separate statements does. This patch cleans up all of the cases so far
reported from the field, though there are still some oddities associated
with identity columns.
The core problem behind all of these bugs is that we do parse analysis
of ALTER TABLE subcommands too soon, before starting execution of the
statement. The root of the bugs in group (1) is that parse analysis
schedules derived commands (such as a CREATE SEQUENCE for a serial
column) before it's known whether the IF NOT EXISTS clause should cause
a subcommand to be skipped. The root of the bugs in group (2) is that
earlier subcommands may change the catalog state that later subcommands
need to be parsed against.
Hence, postpone parse analysis of ALTER TABLE's subcommands, and do
that one subcommand at a time, during "phase 2" of ALTER TABLE which
is the phase that does catalog rewrites. Thus the catalog effects
of earlier subcommands are already visible when we analyze later ones.
(The sole exception is that we do parse analysis for ALTER COLUMN TYPE
subcommands during phase 1, so that their USING expressions can be
parsed against the table's original state, which is what we need.
Arguably, these bugs stem from falsely concluding that because ALTER
COLUMN TYPE must do early parse analysis, every other command subtype
can too.)
This means that ALTER TABLE itself must deal with execution of any
non-ALTER-TABLE derived statements that are generated by parse analysis.
Add a suitable entry point to utility.c to accept those recursive
calls, and create a struct to pass through the information needed by
the recursive call, rather than making the argument lists of
AlterTable() and friends even longer.
Getting this to work correctly required a little bit of fiddling
with the subcommand pass structure, in particular breaking up
AT_PASS_ADD_CONSTR into multiple passes. But otherwise it's mostly
a pretty straightforward application of the above ideas.
Fixing the residual issues for identity columns requires refactoring of
where the dependency link from an identity column to its sequence gets
set up. So that seems like suitable material for a separate patch,
especially since this one is pretty big already.

A view with conditional INSTEAD rules and no unconditional INSTEAD
rules or INSTEAD OF triggers is not auto-updatable. Previously we
relied on a check in the executor to catch this, but that's
problematic since the planner may fail to properly handle such a query
and thus return a particularly unhelpful error to the user, before
reaching the executor check.
Instead, trap this in the rewriter and report the correct error there.
Doing so also allows us to include more useful error detail than the
executor check can provide. This doesn't change the existing behaviour
of updatable views; it merely ensures that useful error messages are
reported when a view isn't updatable.

Previously, the core scanner's yy_transition[] array had 37045 elements.
Since that number is larger than INT16_MAX, Flex generated the array to
contain 32-bit integers. By reimplementing some of the bulkier scanner
rules, this patch reduces the array to 20495 elements. The much smaller
total length, combined with the consequent use of 16-bit integers for
the array elements reduces the binary size by over 200kB. This was
accomplished in two ways:
1. Consolidate handling of quote continuations into a new start condition,
rather than duplicating that logic for five different string types.
2. Treat Unicode strings and identifiers followed by a UESCAPE sequence
as three separate tokens, rather than one. The logic to de-escape
Unicode strings is moved to the filter code in parser.c, which already
had the ability to provide special processing for token sequences.
While we could have implemented the conversion in the grammar, that
approach was rejected for performance and maintainability reasons.
Performance in microbenchmarks of raw parsing seems equal or slightly
faster in most cases, and it's reasonable to expect that in real-world
usage (with more competition for the CPU cache) there will be a larger
win. The exception is UESCAPE sequences; lexing those is about 10%
slower, primarily because the scanner now has to be called three times
rather than one. This seems acceptable since that feature is very
rarely used.
The psql and epcg lexers are likewise modified, primarily because we
want to keep them all in sync. Since those lexers don't use the
space-hogging -CF option, the space savings is much less, but it's
still good for perhaps 10kB apiece.
While at it, merge the ecpg lexer's handling of C-style comments used
in SQL and in C. Those have different rules regarding nested comments,
but since we already have the ability to keep track of the previous
start condition, we can use that to handle both cases within a single
start condition. This matches the core scanner more closely.

Until now we've only used a single multivariate MCV list per relation,
covering the largest number of clauses. So for example given a query
SELECT * FROM t WHERE a = 1 AND b =1 AND c = 1 AND d = 1
and extended statistics on (a,b) and (c,d), we'd only pick and use one
of them. This commit improves this by repeatedly picking and applying
the best statistics (matching the largest number of remaining clauses)
until no additional statistics is applicable.
This greedy algorithm is simple, but may not be optimal. A different
choice of statistics may leave fewer clauses unestimated and/or give
better estimates for some other reason.
This can however happen only when there are overlapping statistics, and
selecting one makes it impossible to use the other. E.g. with statistics
on (a,b), (c,d), (b,c,d), we may pick either (a,b) and (c,d) or (b,c,d).
But it's not clear which option is the best one.
We however assume cases like this are rare, and the easiest solution is
to define statistics covering the whole group of correlated columns. In
the future we might support overlapping stats, using some of the clauses
as conditions (in conditional probability sense).

When considering functional dependencies during selectivity estimation,
it's not necessary to bother with selecting the best extended statistic
object and then use just dependencies from it. We can simply consider
all applicable functional dependencies at once.
This means we need to deserialie all (applicable) dependencies before
applying them to the clauses. This is a bit more expensive than picking
the best statistics and deserializing dependencies for it. To minimize
the additional cost, we ignore statistics that are not applicable.

Fix assorted bugs in handling of non-blocking I/O when using GSSAPI
encryption. The encryption layer could return the wrong status
information to its caller, resulting in effectively dropping some data
(or possibly in aborting a not-broken connection), or in a "livelock"
situation where data remains to be sent but the upper layers think
transmission is done and just go to sleep. There were multiple small
thinkos contributing to that, as well as one big one (failure to think
through what to do when a send fails after having already transmitted
data). Note that these errors could cause failures whether the client
application asked for non-blocking I/O or not, since both libpq and
the backend always run things in non-block mode at this level.
Also get rid of use of static variables for GSSAPI inside libpq;
that's entirely not okay given that multiple connections could be
open at once inside a single client process.
Also adjust a bunch of random small discrepancies between the frontend
and backend versions of the send/receive functions -- except for error
handling, they should be identical, and now they are.

Use the parser's standard type coercion machinery to convert the
output column(s) of a SQL function's final SELECT or RETURNING
to the type(s) they should have according to the function's declared
result type. We'll allow any case where an assignment-level
coercion is available. Previously, we failed unless the required
coercion was a binary-compatible one (and the documentation ignored
this, falsely claiming that the types must match exactly).
Notably, the coercion now accounts for typmods, so that cases where
a SQL function is declared to return a composite type whose columns
are typmod-constrained now behave as one would expect. Arguably
this aspect is a bug fix, but the overall behavioral change here
seems too large to consider back-patching.
A nice side-effect is that functions can now be inlined in a
few cases where we previously failed to do so because of type
mismatches.

When I added the ParseNamespaceItem data structure (in commit 5ebaaa494),
it wasn't very tightly integrated into the parser's APIs. In the wake of
adding p_rtindex to that struct (commit b541e9acc), there is a good reason
to make more use of it: by passing around ParseNamespaceItem pointers
instead of bare RTE pointers, we can get rid of various messy methods for
passing back or deducing the rangetable index of an RTE during parsing.
Hence, refactor the addRangeTableEntryXXX functions to build and return
a ParseNamespaceItem struct, not just the RTE proper; and replace
addRTEtoQuery with addNSItemToQuery, which is passed a ParseNamespaceItem
rather than building one internally.
Also, add per-column data (a ParseNamespaceColumn array) to each
ParseNamespaceItem. These arrays are built during addRangeTableEntryXXX,
where we have column type data at hand so that it's nearly free to fill
the data structure. Later, when we need to build Vars referencing RTEs,
we can use the ParseNamespaceColumn info to avoid the rather expensive
operations done in get_rte_attribute_type() or expandRTE().
get_rte_attribute_type() is indeed dead code now, so I've removed it.
This makes for a useful improvement in parse analysis speed, around 20%
in one moderately-complex test query.
The ParseNamespaceColumn structs also include Var identity information
(varno/varattno). That info isn't actually being used in this patch,
except that p_varno == 0 is a handy test for a dropped column.

Formerly the rd_partkey and rd_partdesc data structures were always
populated immediately when a relcache entry was built or rebuilt.
This patch changes things so that they are populated only when they
are first requested. (Hence, callers *must* now always use
RelationGetPartitionKey or RelationGetPartitionDesc; just fetching
the pointer directly is no longer acceptable.)
This seems to have some performance benefits, but the main reason to do
it is that it eliminates a recursive-reload failure that occurs if the
partkey or partdesc expressions contain any references to the relation's
rowtype (as discovered by Amit Langote). In retrospect, since loading
these data structures might result in execution of nearly-arbitrary code
via eval_const_expressions, it was a dumb idea to require that to happen
during relcache entry rebuild.
Also, fix things so that old copies of a relcache partition descriptor
will be dropped when the cache entry's refcount goes to zero. In the
previous coding it was possible for such copies to survive for the
lifetime of the session, as I'd complained of in a previous discussion.
(This management technique still isn't perfect, but it's better than
before.) Improve the commentary explaining how that works and why
it's safe to hand out direct pointers to these relcache substructures.
In passing, improve RelationBuildPartitionDesc by using the same
memory-context-parent-swap approach used by RelationBuildPartitionKey,
thereby making it less dependent on strong assumptions about what
partition_bounds_copy does. Avoid doing get_rel_relkind in the
critical section, too.
Patch by Amit Langote and Tom Lane; Robert Haas deserves some credit

If CheckAttributeType() threw an error about the datatype of an
index expression column, it would report an empty column name,
which is pretty unhelpful and certainly not the intended behavior.
I (tgl) evidently broke this in commit cfc5008a5, by not noticing
that the column's attname was used above where I'd placed the
assignment of it.
In HEAD and v12, this is trivially fixable by moving up the
assignment of attname. Before v12 the code is a bit more messy;
to avoid doing substantial refactoring, I took the lazy way out
and just put in two copies of the assignment code.

force_parallel_mode = regress is supposed to force use of a Gather
node without having any impact on EXPLAIN output. But it failed to
accomplish that if both ANALYZE and VERBOSE are given, because that
enables per-worker output data that you wouldn't see if the Gather
hadn't been inserted. Improve the logic so that we suppress the
per-worker data too.
This allows putting the new test case added by commit 5935917ce
back into the originally intended form (cf. 776a2c887, 22864f6e0).
We can also get rid of a kluge in subselect.sql, which previously
had to clean up after force_parallel_mode's failure to do what it

The RTE_RESULT simplification logic added by commit 4be058fe9 had a
flaw: it would collapse out a RTE_RESULT that is due to compute a
PlaceHolderVar, and reassign the PHV to the parent join level, even if
another input relation of the join contained a lateral reference to
the PHV. That can't work because the PHV would be computed too late.
In practice it led to failures of internal sanity checks later in
planning (either assertion failures or errors such as "failed to
construct the join relation").
To fix, add code to check for the presence of such PHVs in relevant
portions of the query tree. Notably, this required refactoring
range_table_walker so that a caller could ask to walk individual RTEs
not the whole list. (It might be a good idea to refactor
range_table_mutator in the same way, if only to keep those functions
looking similar; but I didn't do so here as it wasn't necessary for
the bug fix.)
This exercise also taught me that find_dependent_phvs(), as it stood,
could only safely be used on the entire Query, not on subtrees.
Adjust its API to reflect that; which in passing allows it to have
a fast path for the common case of no PHVs anywhere.

in a form that passes with or without force_parallel_mode = regress.
It turns out that force_parallel_mode = regress simply fails to mask
the Worker lines that will be produced by EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, VERBOSE).
I'd say that's a bug in that feature, as its entire alleged reason
for existence is to make the EXPLAIN output the same. It's certainly
not a bug in the plan node pruning logic. Fortunately, this test case
doesn't really need to use ANALYZE, so just drop that.

The buildfarm says this produces some unexpected output with

that, but for the moment just delete the test case to make the

This patch causes EXPLAIN to always assign a separate table alias to the
parent RTE of an append relation (inheritance set); before, such RTEs
were ignored if not actually scanned by the plan. Since the child RTEs
now always have that same alias to start with (cf. commit 55a1954da),
the net effect is that the parent RTE usually gets the alias used or
implied by the query text, and the children all get that alias with "_N"
appended. (The exception to "usually" is if there are duplicate aliases
in different subtrees of the original query; then some of those original
RTEs will also have "_N" appended.)
This results in more uniform output for partitioned-table plans than
we had before: the partitioned table itself gets the original alias,
and all child tables have aliases with "_N", rather than the previous
behavior where one of the children would get an alias without "_N".
The reason for giving the parent RTE an alias, even if it isn't scanned
by the plan, is that we now use the parent's alias to qualify Vars that
refer to an appendrel output column and appear above the Append or
MergeAppend that computes the appendrel. But below the append, Vars
refer to some one of the child relations, and are displayed that way.
This seems clearer than the old behavior where a Var that could carry
values from any child relation was displayed as if it referred to only
one of them.
While at it, change ruleutils.c so that the code paths used by EXPLAIN
deal in Plan trees not PlanState trees. This effectively reverts a
decision made in commit 1cc29fe7c, which seemed like a good idea at
the time to make ruleutils.c consistent with explain.c. However,
it's problematic because we'd really like to allow executor startup
pruning to remove all the children of an append node when possible,
leaving no child PlanState to resolve Vars against. (That's not done
here, but will be in the next patch.) This requires different handling
of subplans and initplans than before, but is otherwise a pretty
straightforward change.

isolationtester.c had a hard-wired limit of 3 minutes per test step.
It now emerges that this isn't quite enough for some of the slowest
buildfarm animals. This isn't the first time we've had to raise
this limit (cf. 1db439ad4), so let's make it configurable. This
patch raises the default to 5 minutes, and introduces an environment
variable PGISOLATIONTIMEOUT that can be set if more time is needed,
following the precedent of PGCTLTIMEOUT.
Also, modify isolationtester so that when the timeout is hit,
it explicitly reports having sent a cancel. This makes the regression
failure log considerably more intelligible. (In the worst case, a
timed-out test might actually be reported as "passing" without this
extra output, so arguably this is a bug fix in itself.)

While fooling around with the EXPLAIN improvements I've been working
on, I noticed that there were some large gaps in our test coverage
of ruleutils.c, according to the code coverage report. This commit
just adds a few test cases to improve coverage of:
get_name_for_var_field()
get_update_query_targetlist_def()
isSimpleNode()
get_sublink_expr()
When creating a uniqueness constraint using a pre-existing index,
we have always required that the index have the same properties you'd
get if you just let a new index get built. However, when collations
were added, we forgot to add the index's collation to that check.
It's hard to trip over this without intentionally trying to break it:
you'd have to explicitly specify a different collation in CREATE
INDEX, then convert it to a pkey or unique constraint. Still, if you
did that, pg_dump would emit a script that fails to reproduce the
index's collation. The main practical problem is that after a
pg_upgrade the index would be corrupt, because its actual physical
order wouldn't match what pg_index says. A more theoretical issue,
which is new as of v12, is that if you create the index with a
nondeterministic collation then it wouldn't be enforcing the normal
notion of uniqueness, causing the constraint to mean something
different from a normally-created constraint.
To fix, just add collation to the conditions checked for index
acceptability in ADD PRIMARY KEY/UNIQUE USING INDEX. We won't try
to clean up after anybody who's already created such a situation;
it seems improbable enough to not be worth the effort involved.
(If you do get into trouble, a REINDEX should be enough to fix it.)
In principle this is a long-standing bug, but I chose not to
back-patch --- the odds of causing trouble seem about as great
as the odds of preventing it, and both risks are very low anyway.

TLS 1.0 is widely deprecated, and TLS 1.1 only slightly less so. All
OpenSSL versions that support TLS 1.1 also support TLS 1.2, so there

If an inheritance/partitioning parent table is assigned some column
alias names in the query, EXPLAIN mapped those aliases onto the
child tables' columns by physical position, resulting in bogus output
if a child table's columns aren't one-for-one with the parent's.
To fix, make expand_single_inheritance_child() generate a correctly
re-mapped column alias list, rather than just copying the parent
RTE's alias node. (We have to fill the alias field, not just
adjust the eref field, because ruleutils.c will ignore eref in
favor of looking at the real column names.)
This means that child tables will now always have alias fields in
plan rtables, where before they might not have. That results in
a rather substantial set of regression test output changes:
EXPLAIN will now always show child tables with aliases that match
the parent table (usually with "_N" appended for uniqueness).
But that seems like a net positive for understandability, since
the parent alias corresponds to something that actually appeared
in the original query, while the child table names didn't.
(Note that this does not change anything for cases where an explicit
table alias was written in the query for the parent table; it
just makes cases without such aliases behave similarly to that.)
Hence, while we could avoid these subsidiary changes if we made
inherit.c more complicated, we choose not to.

We implement ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS by truncating tables marked that
way, which requires also truncating/rebuilding their indexes. But
RelationTruncateIndexes asks the relcache for up-to-date copies of any
index expressions, which may cause execution of eval_const_expressions
on them, which can result in actual execution of subexpressions.
This is a bad thing to have happening during ON COMMIT. Manuel Rigger
reported that use of a SQL function resulted in crashes due to
expectations that ActiveSnapshot would be set, which it isn't.
The most obvious fix perhaps would be to push a snapshot during
PreCommit_on_commit_actions, but I think that would just open the door
to more problems: CommitTransaction explicitly expects that no
user-defined code can be running at this point.
Fortunately, since we know that no tuples exist to be indexed, there
seems no need to use the real index expressions or predicates during
RelationTruncateIndexes. We can set up dummy index expressions
instead (we do need something that will expose the right data type,
as there are places that build index tupdescs based on this), and
just ignore predicates and exclusion constraints.
In a green field it'd likely be better to reimplement ON COMMIT DELETE
ROWS using the same "init fork" infrastructure used for unlogged
relations. That seems impractical without catalog changes though,
and even without that it'd be too big a change to back-patch.
So for now do it like this.

When picking the best extended statistics object for a list of clauses,
it's not enough to look at attnums extracted from the clause list as a
whole. Consider for example this query with OR clauses:
SELECT * FROM t WHERE (t.a = 1) OR (t.b = 1) OR (t.c = 1)
with a statistics defined on columns (a,b). Relying on attnums extracted
from the whole OR clause, we'd consider the statistics usable. That does
not work, as we see the conditions as a single OR-clause, referencing an
attribute not covered by the statistic, leading to empty list of clauses
to be estimated using the statistics and an assert failure.
This changes choose_best_statistics to check which clauses are actually
covered, and only using attributes from the fully covered ones. For the
previous example this means the statistics object will not be considered
as compatible with the OR-clause.

The fix for CVE-2017-7484 disallowed use of pg_statistic data for
planning purposes if the user would not be able to select the associated
column and a non-leakproof function is to be applied to the statistics
values. That turns out to disable use of pg_statistic data in some
common cases involving inheritance/partitioning, where the user does
have permission to select from the parent table that was actually named
in the query, but not from a child table whose stats are needed. Since,
in non-corner cases, the user *can* select the child table's data via
the parent, this restriction is not actually useful from a security
standpoint. Improve the logic so that we also check the permissions of
the originally-named table, and allow access if select permission exists
for that.
When checking access to stats for a simple child column, we can map
the child column number back to the parent, and perform this test
exactly (including not allowing access if the child column isn't
exposed by the parent). For expression indexes, the current logic
just insists on whole-table select access, and this patch allows
access if the user can select the whole parent table. In principle,
if the child table has extra columns, this might allow access to
stats on columns the user can't read. In practice, it's unlikely
that the planner is going to do any stats calculations involving
expressions that are not visible to the query, so we'll ignore that
fine point for now. Perhaps someday we'll improve that logic to
detect exactly which columns are used by an expression index ...
but today is not that day.
Back-patch to v11. The issue was created in 9.2 and up by the

If LISTEN is the only action in a serializable-mode transaction,
and the session was not previously listening, and the notify queue
is not empty, predicate.c reported an assertion failure. That
happened because we'd acquire the transaction's initial snapshot
during PreCommit_Notify, which was called *after* predicate.c
expects any such snapshot to have been established.
To fix, just swap the order of the PreCommit_Notify and
PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure calls during CommitTransaction.
This will imply holding the notify-insertion lock slightly longer,
but the difference could only be meaningful in serializable mode,
which is an expensive option anyway.
It appears that this is just an assertion failure, with no
consequences in non-assert builds. A snapshot used only to scan
the notify queue could not have been involved in any serialization
conflicts, so there would be nothing for
PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure to do except assign it a
prepareSeqNo and set the SXACT_FLAG_PREPARED flag. And given no
conflicts, neither of those omissions affect the behavior of
ReleasePredicateLocks. This admittedly once-over-lightly analysis
is backed up by the lack of field reports of trouble.

slot_modify_cstrings seriously abused the TupleTableSlot API by relying

this abuse was also quite undocumented, it's little surprise that the
case got broken during the v12 slot rewrites. As reported in bug #16129
from Ondřej Jirman, this could lead to crashes or data corruption when
a logical replication subscriber processes a row update. Problems would
only arise if the subscriber's table contained columns of pass-by-ref
types that were not being copied from the publisher.
Fix by explicitly copying the datum/isnull arrays from the source slot
that the old row was in already. This ends up being about the same

While moving the logic out to a planner support function, I simplified

SKIP_LOCKED. The tests are designed so as LOCK commands are taken
in a first session before running a concurrent VACUUM (SKIP_LOCKED) in a
second to generate WARNING messages, but a concurrent autovacuum could
cause the tests to be slower.

At least buildfarm member florican doesn't use a material node above a
sort in the mark/restore case. As material is not intended to be
tested with that query, disallow.
Previously significant parts of tuplesort.c were untested. This
commit, while not testing every path, significantly increases
coverage. In particular, this adds tests for abbreviated key logic,
forward/backward scans & scrolling and mark/restore.
I tried to keep the table sizes reasonable, and stress the on-disk

Commits 4ea03f3f4 et al arranged to filter out row counts in parallel
plans, because those are dependent on the number of workers actually
obtained. Somehow I missed that the 'Rows Removed by Filter' counts
can also vary, so fix that too. Per buildfarm.
This seems worth a last-minute patch because unreliable regression
tests are a serious pain in the rear for packagers.
Like the previous patch, back-patch to v11 where this test was
introduced.
This happens when we add a replica identity column on a subscriber
that does not yet exist on the publisher, according to the mapping
maintained by the subscriber. Code that checks whether the target
relation on the subscriber is updatable would check the replica
identity attribute bitmap with a column number -1, which would result
in an error. To fix, skip such columns in the bitmap lookup and
consider the relation not updatable. The result is consistent with
the rule that the replica identity columns on the subscriber must be a
subset of those on the publisher, since if the column doesn't exist on
the publisher, the column set on the subscriber can't be a subset.

When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources
for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when
the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is
somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those
conflicts are unnecessarily laborious to resolve.
By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one
object per line, conflicts should be less frequent, and easier to

get_relkind_objtype, and hence get_object_type, failed when applied to a
toast table. This is not a good thing, because it prevents reporting of
perfectly legitimate permissions errors. (At present, these functions
are in fact *only* used to determine the ObjectType argument for
acl_error() calls.) It seems best to have them fall back to returning
OBJECT_TABLE in every case where they can't determine an object type
for a pg_class entry, so do that.
In passing, make some edits to alter.c to make it more obvious that

Commit d25ea0127 got rid of what I thought were entirely unnecessary
derived child expressions in EquivalenceClasses for EC members that
mention multiple baserels. But it turns out that some of the child
expressions that code created are necessary for partitionwise joins,
else we fail to find matching pathkeys for Sort nodes. (This happens
only for certain shapes of the resulting plan; it may be that
partitionwise aggregation is also necessary to show the failure,
though I'm not sure of that.)
Reverting that commit entirely would be quite painful performance-wise
for large partition sets. So instead, add code that explicitly
generates child expressions that match only partitionwise child join
rels we have actually generated.

When using CREATE TABLE for a new partition, the partitioned indexes of
the parent are created automatically in a fashion similar to LIKE
INDEXES. The new partition and its parent use a mapping for attribute
numbers for this operation, and while the mapping was correctly built,
its length was defined as the number of attributes of the newly-created
child, and not the parent. If the parent includes dropped columns, this
could cause failures.

When compiling Postgres with OpenSSL 1.0.1 or older versions, SCRAM's

Fix the issue by using a method similar to c3d41cc, making the test
result conditional. The test passes if X509_get_signature_nid() is

copying the state of the attgenerated column. This is in fact wrong,
because GENERATED and DEFAULT expressions are not the same kind of animal;
one can contain Vars and the other not. We *must* copy attgenerated
when we're copying the attrdef expression. Rearrange the if-tests
so that the expression is copied only when the correct one of
INCLUDING DEFAULTS and INCLUDING GENERATED has been specified.

This commit implements jsonpath .datetime() method as it's specified in
SQL/JSON standard. There are no-argument and single-argument versions of
this method. No-argument version selects first of ISO datetime formats
matching input string. Single-argument version accepts template string as
its argument.
Additionally to .datetime() method itself this commit also implements
comparison ability of resulting date and time values. There is some difficulty
because exising jsonb_path_*() functions are immutable, while comparison of
timezoned and non-timezoned types involves current timezone. At first, current
timezone could be changes in session. Moreover, timezones themselves are not
immutable and could be updated. This is why we let existing immutable functions
throw errors on such non-immutable comparison. In the same time this commit
provides jsonb_path_*_tz() functions which are stable and support operations
involving timezones. As new functions are added to the system catalog,
catversion is bumped.
Support of .datetime() method was the only blocker prevents T832 from being
marked as supported. sql_features.txt is updated correspondingly.

All our current in core relation options of type string (not many,
admittedly) behave in reality like enums. But after seeing an
implementation for enum reloptions, it's clear that strings are messier,
so introduce the new reloption type. Switch all string options to be
enums instead.
Fortunately we have a recently introduced test module for reloptions, so
we don't lose coverage of string reloptions, which may still be used by
third-party modules.

Fix an oversight in commit 7266d0997: as it stood, the code failed
when a function-in-FROM returns composite and can be simplified
to a composite constant.
For the moment, just test for composite result and abandon pullup

the composite constant into per-column constants; which is surely
do-able, but I'm not convinced it's worth the code space.

If the bitstring length is not a multiple of 8, we'd shift the
rightmost bits into the pad space, which must be zeroes --- bit_cmp,
for one, depends on that. This'd lead to the result failing to
compare equal to what it should compare equal to, as reported in
bug #16013 from Daryl Waycott.
This is, if memory serves, not the first such bug in the bitstring
functions. In hopes of making it the last one, do a bit more work
than minimally necessary to fix the bug:
* Add assertion checks to bit_out() and varbit_out() to complain if
they are given incorrectly-padded input. This will improve the
odds that manual testing of any new patch finds problems.
* Encapsulate the padding-related logic in macros to make it
easier to use.
Also, remove unnecessary padding logic from bit_or() and bitxor().
Somebody had already noted that we need not re-pad the result of
bit_and() since the inputs are required to be the same length,
but failed to extrapolate that to the other two.
Also, move a comment block that once was near the head of varbit.c
(but people kept putting other stuff in front of it), to put it in
the header block.
Note for the release notes: if anyone has inconsistent data as a
result of saving the output of bitshiftright() in a table, it's
possible to fix it with something like
UPDATE mytab SET bitcol = ~(~bitcol) WHERE bitcol != ~(~bitcol);
This has been broken since day one, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

Since we introduced the idea of leakproof functions, texteq and textne
were marked leakproof but their sibling text comparison functions were
not. This inconsistency seemed justified because texteq/textne just
relied on memcmp() and so could easily be seen to be leakproof, while
the other comparison functions are far more complex and indeed can
throw input-dependent errors.
However, that argument crashed and burned with the addition of
nondeterministic collations, because now texteq/textne may invoke
the exact same varstr_cmp() infrastructure as the rest. It makes no
sense whatever to give them different leakproofness markings.
After a certain amount of angst we've concluded that it's all right
to consider varstr_cmp() to be leakproof, mostly because the other
choice would be disastrous for performance of many queries where
leakproofness matters. The input-dependent errors should only be
reachable for corrupt input data, or so we hope anyway; certainly,
if they are reachable in practice, we've got problems with requirements
as basic as maintaining a btree index on a text column.
Hence, run around to all the SQL functions that derive from varstr_cmp()
and mark them leakproof. This should result in a useful gain in
flexibility/performance for queries in which non-leakproofness degrades
the efficiency of the query plan.
Back-patch to v12 where nondeterministic collations were added.
While this isn't an essential bug fix given the determination
that varstr_cmp() is leakproof, we might as well apply it now that
we've been forced into a post-beta4 catversion bump.

Although the SQL/JSON tech report makes reference to ECMAScript which
allows both single- and double-quoted strings, all the rest of the
report speaks only of double-quoted string literals in jsonpaths.
That's more compatible with JSON itself; moreover single-quoted strings
are hard to use inside a jsonpath that is itself a single-quoted SQL
literal. So guess that the intent is to allow only double-quoted
literals, and remove lexer support for single-quoted literals.
It'll be less painful to add this again later if we're wrong, than to
remove a shipped feature.
Also, adjust the lexer so that unrecognized backslash sequences are
treated as just meaning the escaped character, not as errors. This
change has much better support in the standards, as JSON, JavaScript
and ECMAScript all make it plain that that's what's supposed to
happen.

The sample output assumes non-standard-conforming interpretation of
backslashes in input literals, so the actual output didn't match.
Noticed while perusing another patch that touches this file.
Evidently this code is seldom checked, so I'm not going to bother
backpatching this fix.
The SQL spec defers to XQuery to define what the option flags are
for LIKE_REGEX patterns. XQuery says that:
* 's' allows the dot character to match newlines, which by
default it will not;
* 'm' allows ^ and $ to match at newlines, not only at the
start/end of the whole string.
Thus, these are *not* inverses as they are for the similarly-named
POSIX options, and neither one corresponds to the POSIX 'n' option.
Fortunately, Spencer's library does expose these two behaviors as
separately twiddlable flags, so we just have to fix the mapping from
JSP flag bits to REG flag bits. I also chose to rename the symbol
for 's' to DOTALL, to make it clearer that it's not the inverse
of MLINE.
Also, XQuery says that if the 'q' flag "is used together with the m, s,
or x flag, that flag has no effect". I read this as saying that 'q'
overrides the other flags; whoever wrote our code seems to have read
it backwards.
Lastly, while XQuery's 'x' flag is related to what Spencer's code
does for REG_EXPANDED, it's not the same or a subset. It seems best
to treat XQuery's 'x' as unimplemented for now. Maybe later we can
expand our regex code to offer 'x'-style parsing as a separate option.
While at it, refactor the jsonpath code so that (a) there's only
one copy of the flag transformation logic not two, and (b) the
processing of flags is independent of the order in which the flags
are written.
We need some documentation updates to go with this, but I'll
tackle that separately.

When building statistics, we need to decide how many rows to sample and
how accurate the resulting statistics should be. Until now, it was not
possible to explicitly define statistics target for extended statistics
objects, the value was always computed from the per-attribute targets
with a fallback to the system-wide default statistics target.
That's a bit inconvenient, as it ties together the statistics target set
for per-column and extended statistics. In some cases it may be useful
to require larger sample / higher accuracy for extended statics (or the
other way around), but with this approach that's not possible.
So this commit introduces a new command, allowing to specify statistics
target for individual extended statistics objects, overriding the value
derived from per-attribute targets (and the system default).
ALTER STATISTICS stat_name SET STATISTICS target_value;
When determining statistics target for an extended statistics object we
first look at this explicitly set value. When this value is -1, we fall
back to the old formula, looking at the per-attribute targets first and
then the system default. This means the behavior is backwards compatible
with older PostgreSQL releases.

In ad0bda5d24 I changed the EvalPlanQual machinery to store
substitution tuples in slot, instead of using plain HeapTuples. The
main motivation for that was that using HeapTuples will be inefficient
for future tableams. But it turns out that that conversion was buggy
for non-locking rowmarks - the wrong tuple descriptor was used to
create the slot.
As a secondary issue 5db6df0c0 changed ExecLockRows() to begin EPQ
earlier, to allow to fetch the locked rows directly into the EPQ
slots, instead of having to copy tuples around. Unfortunately, as Tom
complained, that forces some expensive initialization to happen
earlier.
As a third issue, the test coverage for EPQ was clearly insufficient.
Fixing the first issue is unfortunately not trivial: Non-locked row
marks were fetched at the start of EPQ, and we don't have the type
information for the rowmarks available at that point. While we could
change that, it's not easy. It might be worthwhile to change that at
some point, but to fix this bug, it seems better to delay fetching
non-locking rowmarks when they're actually needed, rather than
eagerly. They're referenced at most once, and in cases where EPQ
fails, might never be referenced. Fetching them when needed also
increases locality a bit.
To be able to fetch rowmarks during execution, rather than
initialization, we need to be able to access the active EPQState, as
that contains necessary data. To do so move EPQ related data from
EState to EPQState, and, only for EStates creates as part of EPQ,
reference the associated EPQState from EState.
To fix the second issue, change EPQ initialization to allow use of
EvalPlanQualSlot() to be used before EvalPlanQualBegin() (but
obviously still requiring EvalPlanQualInit() to have been done).
As these changes made struct EState harder to understand, e.g. by
adding multiple EStates, significantly reorder the members, and add a
lot more comments.
Also add a few more EPQ tests, including one that fails for the first
issue above. More is needed.

This testing method is a bit brute-force --- in particular,
it duplicates the execution of a fair amount of the core

As a result of some long-ago quick hacks, the SIMILAR TO operator
and the corresponding flavor of substring() interpreted "ESCAPE NULL"
as selecting the default escape character '\'. This is both
surprising and not per spec: the standard is clear that these
functions should return NULL for NULL input.
Additionally, because of inconsistency of the strictness markings
of 3-argument substring() and similar_escape(), the planner could not
inline the SQL definition of substring(), resulting in a substantial
performance penalty compared to the underlying POSIX substring()
function.
The simplest fix for this would be to change the strictness marking
of similar_escape(), but if we do that we risk breaking existing views
that depend on that function. Hence, leave similar_escape() as-is
as a compatibility function, and instead invent a new function
similar_to_escape() that comes in two strict variants.
There are a couple of other behaviors in this area that are also
not per spec, but they are documented and seem generally at least
as sane as the spec's definition, so leave them alone. But improve
the documentation to describe them fully.

This approach provides a much tighter binding between a data directory
and the associated SysV shared memory block (and SysV or named-POSIX
semaphores, if we're using those). Key collisions are still possible,
but only between data directories stored on different filesystems,
so the situation should be negligible in practice. More importantly,
restarting the postmaster with a different port number no longer
risks failing to identify a relevant shared memory block, even when
postmaster.pid has been removed. A standalone backend is likewise
much more certain to detect conflicting leftover backends.
(In the longer term, we might now think about deprecating the port as
a cluster-wide value, so that one postmaster could support sockets
with varying port numbers. But that's for another day.)
The hazards fixed here apply only on Unix systems; our Windows code
paths already use identifiers derived from the data directory path
name rather than the port.
src/test/recovery/t/017_shm.pl, which intends to test key-collision
cases, has been substantially rewritten since it can no longer use
two postmasters with identical port numbers to trigger the case.
Instead, use Perl's IPC::SharedMem module to create a conflicting
shmem segment directly. The test script will be skipped if that
module is not available. (This means that some older buildfarm
members won't run it, but I don't think that that results in any
meaningful coverage loss.)

The comment did not match what the code actually did for integers with
the 43rd bit set. You get an integer like that, if you have a posting
list with two adjacent TIDs that are more than 2^31 blocks apart.
According to the comment, we would store that in 6 bytes, with no
continuation bit on the 6th byte, but in reality, the code encodes it
using 7 bytes, with a continuation bit on the 6th byte as normal.
The decoding routine also handled these 7-byte integers correctly, except
for an overflow check that assumed that one integer needs at most 6 bytes.
Fix the overflow check, and fix the comment to match what the code
actually does. Also fix the comment that claimed that there are 17 unused
bits in the 64-bit representation of an item pointer. In reality, there
are 64-32-11=21.
Fitting any item pointer into max 6 bytes was an important property when
this was written, because in the old pre-9.4 format, item pointers were
stored as plain arrays, with 6 bytes for every item pointer. The maximum
of 6 bytes per integer in the new format guaranteed that we could convert
any page from the old format to the new format after upgrade, so that the
new format was never larger than the old format. But we hardly need to
worry about that anymore, and running into that problem during upgrade,
where an item pointer is expanded from 6 to 7 bytes such that the data
doesn't fit on a page anymore, is implausible in practice anyway.

This also includes a little test module to test these large distances
between item pointers, without requiring a 16 TB table. It is not

Commit a4327296d taught pg_regress proper to do this, but
missed the opportunity to do likewise in the isolationtester
and ecpg variants of pg_regress. Seems like this might be
helpful for tracking down issues exposed by those tests.
If a test case tried to set an invalid value of synchronous_standby_names,
the test script didn't detect that, which seems like a bad idea.
Noticed while testing a proposed patch that broke some of these
test cases.
We were setting extra_float_digits = 0 to avoid platform-dependent
output in this test, but that's still able to expose platform-specific
roundoff behavior in some new test cases added by commit a3d284485,
as reported by Peter Eisentraut. Reduce it to -1 to hide that.
(Over in geometry.sql, we're using -3, which is an ancient decision
dating to 337f73b1b. I wonder whether that's overkill now. But
there's probably little value in trying to change it.)
Back-patch to v12 where a3d284485 came in; there's no evidence that
we have any platform-dependent issues here before that.

This is useful for developers to find out if an isolation spec is
over-engineered or if it needs more work by warning at the end of a
test run if a step is not used, generating a failure with extra diffs.

Using pg_pltemplate as test data was probably not very forward-looking,
considering we've had many discussions around removing that catalog
altogether. Use a nearby temp table instead, to make these two test
scripts more self-contained. This is a better test case anyway, since
it exercises the scenario where the entries in the anyarray column
actually vary in type intra-query.
If the record argument is NULL and has no declared type more concrete
than RECORD, we can't extract useful information about the desired
rowtype from it. In this case, see if we're in FROM with an AS clause,
and if so extract the needed rowtype info from AS.
It worked like this before v11, but commit 37a795a60 removed the
behavior, reasoning that it was undocumented, inefficient, and utterly
not self-consistent. If you want to take type info from an AS clause,
you should be using the json_to_record() family of functions not the
json_populate_record() family. Also, it was already the case that
the "populate" functions would fail for a null-valued RECORD input
(with an unfriendly "record type has not been registered" error)
when there wasn't an AS clause at hand, and it wasn't obvious that
that behavior wasn't OK when there was one. However, it emerges
that some people were depending on this to work, and indeed the
rather off-point error message you got if you left off AS encouraged
slapping on AS without switching to the json_to_record() family.
Hence, put back the fallback behavior of looking for AS. While at it,
improve the run-time error you get when there's no place to obtain type
info; we can do a lot better than "record type has not been registered".
(We can't, unfortunately, easily improve the parse-time error message
that leads people down this path in the first place.)
While at it, I refactored the code a bit to avoid duplicating the
same logic in several different places.

If a table inherits from multiple unrelated parents, we must disallow
changing the type of a column inherited from multiple such parents, else
it would be out of step with the other parents. However, it's possible
for the column to ultimately be inherited from just one common ancestor,
in which case a change starting from that ancestor should still be
allowed. (I would not be excited about preserving that option, were
it not that we have regression test cases exercising it already ...)
It's slightly annoying that this patch looks different from the logic
with the same end goal in renameatt(), and more annoying that it
requires an extra syscache lookup to make the test. However, the
recursion logic is quite different in the two functions, and a
back-patched bug fix is no place to be trying to unify them.

introducing new bugs, for a bug that has escaped notice for this long.

This test failed fairly reproducibly on some CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS
buildfarm animals. The cause seems to be that if a parallel worker
is slow enough to reach its lock wait, it may not be released by
the first deadlock check run, and then later deadlock checks might
decide to unblock the d2 session instead of the d1 session, leaving
us in an undetected deadlock state (since the isolationtester client
is waiting for d1 to complete first).
Fix by introducing an additional lock wait at the end of the d2a1
step, ensuring that the deadlock checker will recognize that d1
has to be unblocked before d2a1 completes.
Also reduce max_parallel_workers_per_gather to 3 in this test. With the
default max_worker_processes value, we were only getting one parallel
worker for the d2a1 step, which is not the case I hoped to test. We
should get 3 for d1a2 and 2 for d2a1, as the code stands; and maybe 3
for d2a1 if somebody figures out why the last parallel worker slot isn't
free already.

This is a variant of the problem fixed in commit 25b692568, which
unfortunately we failed to detect at the time. If an update trigger
returns the "old" tuple, as it's entitled to do, then a subsequent

equal to "trigtuple" and would fail to notice that it shouldn't
free that.
In addition to fixing the code, extend the test case added by
25b692568 so that it covers multiple-trigger-iterations cases.
This problem does not manifest in v12/HEAD, as a result of the

Previously, async.c got rid of duplicate notifications by scanning
the list of pending events to compare each one to the proposed new
event. This works okay for very small numbers of distinct events,
but degrades as O(N^2) for many events. We can improve matters by
using a hash table to probe for duplicates. So as not to add a
lot of overhead for the simple cases that the code did handle well
before, create the hash table only once a (sub)transaction has
queued more than 16 distinct notify events.
A downside is that we now have to do per-event work to propagate
a successful subtransaction's notify events up to its parent.
(But this isn't significant unless the subtransaction had many
events, in which case the O(N^2) behavior would have been in
play already, so we still come out ahead.)
We can make some lemonade out of this lemon, though: since we must
examine each event anyway, it's now possible to de-duplicate events
fully, rather than skipping that for events merged up from
subtransactions. Hence, remove the old weasel wording in notify.sgml
about whether de-duplication happens or not, and adjust the test
case in async-notify.spec that exhibited the old behavior.
While at it, rearrange the definition of struct Notification to make
it more compact and require just one palloc per event, rather than
two or three. This saves space when there are a lot of events,
in fact more than enough to buy back the space needed for the hash
table.

This test case could fail because of an incorrect result ordering when
looking up at pg_class entries. This commit adds an ORDER BY to the
culprit query. The cause of the failure was likely caused by a plan
switch. By default, the planner would likely choose an index-only scan
or an index scan, but even a small change in the startup cost could have
caused a bitmap heap scan to be chosen, causing the failure.
While on it, switch some filtering quals to a regular expression as per
an idea of Tom Lane. As previously shaped, the quals would have
selected any relations whose name begins with "temp". And that could
cause failures if another test running in parallel began to use similar
relation names.

We have implemented jsonpath string comparison using default database locale.
However, standard requires us to compare Unicode codepoints. This commit
implements that, but for performance reasons we still use per-byte comparison
for "==" operator. Thus, for consistency other comparison operators do per-byte
comparison if Unicode codepoints appear to be equal.
In some edge cases, when same Unicode codepoints have different binary
representations in database encoding, we diverge standard to achieve better
performance of "==" operator. In future to implement strict standard
conformance, we can do normalization of input JSON strings.

This failed with either "tuple already updated by self" or "duplicate
key value violates unique constraint", depending on whether the table
had previously been analyzed or not. The reason is that ANALYZE tried
to insert or update the same pg_statistic rows twice, and there was no
CommandCounterIncrement between. So add one. The same case works fine
outside a transaction block, because then there's a whole transaction
boundary between, as a consequence of the way VACUUM works.
This issue has been latent all along, but the problem was unreachable
before commit 11d8d72c2 added the ability to specify multiple tables
in ANALYZE. We could, perhaps, alternatively fix it by adding code to
de-duplicate the list of VacuumRelations --- but that would add a

We were applying constraint exclusion on the partition constraint when
generating pruning steps for a clause, but only for the rather
restricted situation of them being boolean OR operators; however it is
possible to have differently shaped clauses that also benefit from
constraint exclusion. This applies particularly to the default
partition since their constraints are in essence a long list of OR'ed
subclauses ... but it applies to other cases too. So in certain cases
we're scanning partitions that we don't need to.
Remove the specialized code in OR clauses, and add a generally
applicable test of the clause refuting the partition constraint; mark
the whole pruning operation as contradictory if it hits.
This has the unwanted side-effect of testing some (most? all?)
constraints more than once if constraint_exclusion=on. That seems
unavoidable as far as I can tell without some additional work, but
that's not the recommended setting for that parameter anyway.
However, because this imposes additional processing cost for all
queries using partitioned tables, I decided not to backpatch this
change.

In serializable mode, heap_hot_search_buffer() incorrectly acquired a

Commit bf6c614a2 rearranged the lookup of the comparison operators
needed in a hashed subplan, and in so doing, broke the cross-type
case: it caused the original LHS-vs-RHS operator to be used to compare
hash table entries too (which of course are all of the RHS type).
This leads to C functions being passed a Datum that is not of the
type they expect, with the usual hazards of crashes and unauthorized
server memory disclosure.
For the set of hashable cross-type operators present in v11 core
Postgres, this bug is nearly harmless on 64-bit machines, which
may explain why it escaped earlier detection. But it is a live

src/test/kerberos and src/test/ldap need to run a private authentication

They were just picking a random port number in 48K-64K, which works
except when something's already using the particular port. Notably,
the probability of failure rises dramatically if one simply runs those
tests in a tight loop, because each test cycle leaves behind a bunch of
high ports that are transiently in TIME_WAIT state.
To fix, split out the code that PostgresNode.pm already had for
identifying a free TCP port number, so that it can be invoked to choose
a port for the KDC or LDAP server. This isn't 100% bulletproof, since
conceivably something else on the machine could grab the port between
the time we check and the time we actually start the server. But that's

When querying a partitioned table containing a default partition, we
were wrongly deciding to include it in the scan too early in the
process, failing to exclude it in some cases. If we reinterpret the
PruneStepResult.scan_default flag slightly, we can do a better job at
detecting that it can be excluded. The change is that we avoid setting
the flag for that pruning step unless the step absolutely requires the
default partition to be scanned (in contrast with the previous
arrangement, which was to set it unless the step was able to prune it).
So get_matching_partitions() must explicitly check the partition that
each returned bound value corresponds to in order to determine whether
the default one needs to be included, rather than relying on the flag
from the final step result.

In 5f32b29c18 I changed the creation of HashState.hashkeys to
actually use HashState as the parent (instead of HashJoinState, which
was incorrect, as they were executed below HashState), to fix the
problem of hashkeys expressions otherwise relying on slot types
appropriate for HashJoinState, rather than HashState as would be
correct. That reliance was only introduced in 12, which is why it
previously worked to use HashJoinState as the parent (although I'd be
unsurprised if there were problematic cases).
Unfortunately that's not a sufficient solution, because before this
commit, the to-be-hashed expressions referenced inner/outer as
appropriate for the HashJoin, not Hash. That didn't have obvious bad
consequences, because the slots containing the tuples were put into
ecxt_innertuple when hashing a tuple for HashState (even though Hash
doesn't have an inner plan).
There are less common cases where this can cause visible problems
however (rather than just confusion when inspecting such executor
trees). E.g. "ERROR: bogus varno: 65000", when explaining queries
containing a HashJoin where the subsidiary Hash node's hash keys
reference a subplan. While normally hashkeys aren't displayed by
EXPLAIN, if one of those expressions references a subplan, that
subplan may be printed as part of the Hash node - which then failed
because an inner plan was referenced, and Hash doesn't have that.
It seems quite possible that there's other broken cases, too.
Fix the problem by properly splitting the expression for the HashJoin
and Hash nodes at plan time, and have them reference the proper
subsidiary node. While other workarounds are possible, fixing this
correctly seems easy enough. It was a pretty ugly hack to have
ExecInitHashJoin put the expression into the already initialized
HashState, in the first place.
I decided to not just split inner/outer hashkeys inside
make_hashjoin(), but also to separate out hashoperators and
hashcollations at plan time. Otherwise we would have ended up having
two very similar loops, one at plan time and the other during executor
startup. The work seems to more appropriately belong to plan time,
anyway.

This allows simplification of the plan tree in some common usage
patterns: we can get rid of a join to the function RTE.
In principle we could pull up any immutable expression, but restricting
it to Consts avoids the risk that multiple evaluations of the expression
might cost more than we can save. (Possibly this could be improved in
future --- but we've more or less promised people that putting a function
in FROM guarantees single evaluation, so we'd have to tread carefully.)
To do this, we need to rearrange when eval_const_expressions()
happens for expressions in function RTEs. I moved it to
inline_set_returning_functions(), which already has to iterate over
every function RTE, and in consequence renamed that function to
preprocess_function_rtes(). A useful consequence is that
inline_set_returning_function() no longer has to do this for itself,
simplifying that code.
In passing, break out pull_up_simple_subquery's code that knows where
everything that needs pullup_replace_vars() processing is, so that
the new pull_up_constant_function() routine can share it. We'd
gotten away with one-and-a-half copies of that code so far, since
pull_up_simple_values() could assume that a lot of cases didn't apply
to it --- but I don't think pull_up_constant_function() can make any
simplifying assumptions. Might as well make pull_up_simple_values()
use it too.
(Possibly this refactoring should go further: maybe we could share
some of the code to fill in the pullup_replace_vars_context struct?
For now, I left it that the callers fill that completely.)
Note: the one existing test case that this patch changes has to be
changed because inlining its function RTEs would destroy the point
of the test, namely to check join order.

Commit a1c1af2a1 added logic in the deadlock checker to handle lock

fixed in 3420851a2. Add a test case that exercises that a bit better
(and catches the bug --- if you revert 3420851a2, this will hang).
Since it's pretty hard to get parallel workers to take exclusive
regular locks that their parents don't already have, this test operates
by creating a deadlock among advisory locks taken in parallel workers.
To make that happen, we must override the parallel-safety labeling of
the advisory-lock functions, which we do by putting them in mislabeled,
non-inlinable wrapper functions.
We also have to remove the redundant PreventAdvisoryLocksInParallelMode
checks in lockfuncs.c. That seems fine though; if some user accidentally

When performing ANALYZE on inheritance trees, we collect two samples for
each relation - one for the relation alone, and one for the inheritance
subtree (relation and its child relations). And then we build statistics
on each sample, so for each relation we get two sets of statistics.
For regular (per-column) statistics this works fine, because the catalog
includes a flag differentiating statistics built from those two samples.
But we don't have such flag in the extended statistics catalogs, and we
ended up updating the same row twice, triggering this error:
ERROR: tuple already updated by self
The simplest solution is to disable extended statistics on inheritance
trees, which is what this commit is doing. In the future we may need to
do something similar to per-column statistics, but that requires adding a
flag to the catalog - and that's not backpatchable. Moreover, the current
selectivity estimation code only works with individual relations, so
building statistics on inheritance trees would be pointless anyway.

When copying the definition of an index rebuilt concurrently for the new
entry, the index information was taken directly from the old index using
the relation cache. In this case, predicates and expressions have
some post-processing to prepare things for the planner, which loses some
information including the collations added in any of them.
This inconsistency can cause issues when attempting for example a table
rewrite, and makes the new indexes rebuilt concurrently inconsistent
with the old entries.
In order to fix the problem, fetch expressions and predicates directly
from the catalog of the old entry, and fill in IndexInfo for the new
index with that. This makes the process more consistent with
DefineIndex(), and the code is refactored with the addition of a routine
to create an IndexInfo node.

We had no actual end-to-end test of NOTIFY message delivery. In the
core async.sql regression test, testing this is problematic because psql
traditionally prints the PID of the sending backend, making the output
unstable. We also have an isolation test script, but it likewise
failed to prove that delivery worked, because isolationtester.c had
no provisions for detecting/reporting NOTIFY messages.
Hence, add such provisions to isolationtester.c, and extend
async-notify.spec to include direct tests of basic NOTIFY functionality.
I also added tests showing that NOTIFY de-duplicates messages normally,
but not across subtransaction boundaries. (That's the historical
behavior since we introduced subtransactions, though perhaps we ought
to change it.)

If a test sends a notice just before blocking, it's possible on
slow machines for isolationtester to detect the blocked state before
it's consumed the notice. (For this to happen, the notice would have
to arrive after isolationtester has waited for data for 10ms, so on
fast/lightly-loaded machines it's hard to reproduce the failure.)
But, if we have seen the backend as blocked, it's certainly already
sent any notices it's going to send. Therefore, one more round of
PQconsumeInput and PQisBusy should be enough to collect and process
any such notices.
This appears to explain the instability noted in commit ebd499282, so undo
the hack therein to not print notices from insert-conflict-specconflict.

For its entire existence, isolationtester.c has forced client_min_messages
to WARNING, but that seems like a very poor choice of test design. It
should be up to individual test scripts to manage whether they emit notices
and to ensure that the results are stable. (There were no NOTICE messages
in the original set of isolation tests, so this was certainly dead code
when committed, but perhaps it was needed at some earlier point.)
It's possible that the original motivation was due to platform-dependent
variations in the timing of stdout vs. stderr output. That should be
moot since commits 73bcb76b7/6eda3e9c2, but just in case, adjust
isotesterNoticeProcessor to print to stdout not stderr. (stderr seems
like the wrong thing anyway: it should be for error printouts not expected
test output.)
Testing shows that the notices in insert-conflict-specconflict are indeed
a bit timing-unstable on very slow machines, so hide them; maybe we can
improve that later. Also, make the notices in plpgsql-toast a bit less
verbose than the original code would've had them.

Since 15d8f8312 we assert that - and since 7ef04e4d2c, 4da597edf1
rely on - the slot type for an expression's
ecxt_{outer,inner,scan}tuple not changing, unless explicitly flagged
as such. That allows to either skip deforming (for a virtual tuple
slot) or optimize the code for JIT accelerated deforming
appropriately (for other known slot types).
This assumption was sometimes violated for grouping sets, when
nodeAgg.c internally uses tuplesorts, and the child node doesn't
return a TTSOpsMinimalTuple type slot. Detect that case, and flag that
the outer slot might not be "fixed".
It's probably worthwhile to optimize this further in the future, and
more granularly determine whether the slot is fixed. As we already
instantiate per-phase transition and equal expressions, we could
cheaply set the slot type appropriately for each phase. But that's a
separate change from this bugfix.
This commit does include a very minor optimization by avoiding to
create a slot for handling tuplesorts, if no such sorts are
performed. Previously we created that slot unnecessarily in the common
case of computing all grouping sets via hashing. The code looked too
confusing without that, as the conditions for needing a sort slot and
flagging that the slot type isn't fixed, are the same.

If the user creates a deferred constraint in a partition, and in a
transaction they cause the constraint's trigger execution to be deferred
until commit time *and* drop the constraint, then when commit time comes
the queued trigger will fail to run because the trigger object will have
been dropped.
This is explained because when a constraint gets dropped in a
partitioned table, the recursion to drop the ones in partitions is done
by the dependency mechanism, not by ALTER TABLE traversing the recursion
tree as in all other cases. In the non-partitioned case, this problem
is avoided by checking that the table is not "in use" by alter-table;
other alter-table subcommands that recurse to partitions do that check
for each partition. But the dependency mechanism doesn't have a way to
do that. Fix the problem by applying the same check to all partitions
during ALTER TABLE's "prep" phase, which correctly raises the necessary
error.

The logic in ATExecDropColumn that rejects dropping partition key
columns is quite an inadequate defense, because it doesn't execute
in cases where a column needs to be dropped due to cascade from
something that only the column, not the whole partitioned table,
depends on. That leaves us with a badly broken partitioned table;
even an attempt to load its relcache entry will fail.
We really need to have explicit pg_depend entries that show that the
column can't be dropped without dropping the whole table. Hence,
add those entries. In v12 and HEAD, bump catversion to ensure that
partitioned tables will have such entries. We can't do that in
released branches of course, so in v10 and v11 this patch affords
protection only to partitioned tables created after the patch is
installed. Given the lack of field complaints (this bug was found

Some code could get confused when certain catalog state involving both
identity and serial sequences was present, perhaps during an attempt
to upgrade the latter to the former. Specifically, dropping the
default of a serial column maintains the ownership of the sequence by
the column, and so it would then be possible to afterwards make the
column an identity column that would now own two sequences. This
causes the code that looks up the identity sequence to error out,
making the new identity column inoperable until the ownership of the
previous sequence is released.
To fix this, make the identity sequence lookup only consider sequences
with the appropriate dependency type for an identity sequence, so it
only ever finds one (unless something else is broken). In the above
example, the old serial sequence would then be ignored. Reorganize
the various owned-sequence-lookup functions a bit to make this
clearer.

There were two issues in how the extended statistics handled NULL values
in opclauses. Firstly, the code was oblivious to the possibility that
Const may be NULL (constisnull=true) in which case the constvalue is
undefined. We need to treat this as a mismatch, and not call the proc.
Secondly, the MCV item itself may contain NULL values too - the code
already did check that, and updated the match bitmap accordingly, but
failed to ensure we won't call the operator procedure anyway. It did
work for AND-clauses, because in that case false in the bitmap stops
evaluation of further clauses. But for OR-clauses ir was not easy to
get incorrect estimates or even trigger a crash.
This fixes both issues by extending the existing check so that it looks
at constisnull too, and making sure it skips calling the procedure.

Formerly, lcons was about the same speed as lappend, but with the new
List implementation, that's not so; with a long List, data movement
imposes an O(N) cost on lcons and list_delete_first, but not lappend.
Hence, invent list_delete_last with semantics parallel to
list_delete_first (but O(1) cost), and change various places to use
lappend and list_delete_last where this can be done without much
violence to the code logic.
There are quite a few places that construct result lists using lcons not
lappend. Some have semantic rationales for that; I added comments about
it to a couple that didn't have them already. In many such places though,
I think the coding is that way only because back in the dark ages lcons
was faster than lappend. Hence, switch to lappend where this can be done
without causing semantic changes.
In ExecInitExprRec(), this results in aggregates and window functions that
are in the same plan node being executed in a different order than before.
Generally, the executions of such functions ought to be independent of
each other, so this shouldn't result in visibly different query results.
But if you push it, as one regression test case does, you can show that
the order is different. The new order seems saner; it's closer to
the order of the functions in the query text. And we never documented
or promised anything about this, anyway.
Also, in gistfinishsplit(), don't bother building a reverse-order list;
it's easy now to iterate backwards through the original list.
It'd be possible to go further towards removing uses of lcons and
list_delete_first, but it'd require more extensive logic changes,
and I'm not convinced it's worth it. Most of the remaining uses
deal with queues that probably never get long enough to be worth
sweating over. (Actually, I doubt that any of the changes in this
patch will have measurable performance effects either. But better
to have good examples than bad ones in the code base.)

match_clause_to_partition_key incorrectly would return
PARTCLAUSE_UNSUPPORTED if a bool qual could not be matched to the current
partition key. This was a problem, as it causes the calling function to
discard the qual and not try to match it to any other partition key. If
there was another partition key which did match this qual, then the qual
would not be checked again and we could fail to prune some partitions.
The worst this could do was to cause partitions not to be pruned when they
could have been, so there was no danger of incorrect query results here.
Fix this by changing match_boolean_partition_clause to have it return a
PartClauseMatchStatus rather than a boolean value. This allows it to
communicate if the qual is unsupported or if it just does not match this
particular partition key, previously these two cases were treated the
same. Now, if match_clause_to_partition_key is unable to match the qual
to any other qual type then we can simply return the value from the
match_boolean_partition_clause call so that the calling function properly
treats the qual as either unmatched or unsupported.

exactly no coverage of BETWEEN SYMMETRIC, nor of current_time(N) and

parse_expr.c still has a pretty awful coverage number, but a large part
of that is due to lack of coverage of the operator_precedence_warning
logic. I have zero desire to write tests for that; I think ripping it
out would be more sensible at this point.
The code for conversions SQL_ASCII <-> MULE_INTERNAL and
SQL_ASCII <-> UTF8 was unreachable, because we long ago changed
the wrapper functions pg_do_encoding_conversion() et al so that
they have hard-wired behaviors for conversions involving SQL_ASCII.
(At least some of those fast paths date back to 2002, though it
looks like we may not have been totally consistent about this until
later.) Given the lack of complaints, nobody is dissatisfied with
this state of affairs. Hence, let's just remove the unreachable code.
Also, change CREATE CONVERSION so that it rejects attempts to
define such conversions. Since we consider that SQL_ASCII represents
lack of knowledge about the encoding in use, such a conversion would
be semantically dubious even if it were reachable.
Adjust a couple of regression test cases that had randomly decided
to rely on these conversion functions rather than any other ones.

This commit adds a simple enforcement mechanism for that rule: if the code
is compiled with ENFORCE_REGRESSION_TEST_NAME_RESTRICTIONS defined, it
will emit a warning (not an error) whenever a database, role, tablespace,
subscription, or replication origin name is created that doesn't obey the

that's actually fine because TAP tests don't execute against an existing

as to circumscribe the side-effects that "make installcheck" could have on

In fact, a whole new *category* of violations has crept in, to wit we now

This commit sanitizes the tests enough that they will pass (i.e. not

do not actually run against a pre-existing installation, there's no need
to worry whether they could conflict with user-created objects.

We forgot to map column numbers to/from the default partition for
various operations, leading to valid cases failing with spurious
errors, such as
ERROR: attribute N of type some_partition has been dropped
It was also possible that the search for conflicting rows in the default
partition when attaching another partition would fail to detect some.
Secondarily, it was also possible that such a search should be skipped
(because the constraint was implied) but wasn't.
Fix all this by mapping column numbers when necessary.

When a partitioned tables contains foreign tables as partitions, it is
not possible to implement unique or primary key indexes -- but when
regular indexes are created, there is no reason to do anything other
than ignoring such partitions. We were raising errors upon encountering
the foreign partitions, which is unfriendly and doesn't protect against
any actual problems.
Relax this restriction so that index creation is allowed on partitioned
tables containing foreign partitions, becoming a no-op on them. (We may
later want to redefine this so that the FDW is told to create the
indexes on the foreign side.) This applies to CREATE INDEX, as well as
ALTER TABLE / ATTACH PARTITION and CREATE TABLE / PARTITION OF.
Backpatch to 11, where indexes on partitioned tables were introduced.

This patch reverts all the code changes of commit e76de8861, which turns
out to have been seriously misguided. We can't wait till later to compute
the definition string for an index; we must capture that before applying
the data type change for any column it depends on, else ruleutils.c will
deliverr wrong/misleading results. (This fine point was documented
nowhere, of course.)
I'd also managed to forget that ATExecAlterColumnType executes once per
ALTER COLUMN TYPE clause, not once per statement; which resulted in the
code being basically completely broken for any case in which multiple ALTER
COLUMN TYPE clauses are applied to a table having non-constraint indexes
that must be rebuilt. Through very bad luck, none of the existing test
cases nor the ones added by e76de8861 caught that, but of course it was
soon found in the field.
The previous patch also had an implicit assumption that if a constraint's
index had a dependency on a table column, so would the constraint --- but
that isn't actually true, so it didn't fix such cases.
Instead of trying to delete unneeded index dependencies later, do the
is-there-a-constraint lookup immediately on seeing an index dependency,
and switch to remembering the constraint if so. In the unusual case of
multiple column dependencies for a constraint index, this will result in
duplicate constraint lookups, but that's not that horrible compared to all
the other work that happens here. Besides, such cases did not work at all
before, so it's hard to argue that they're performance-critical for anyone.

Commit d7f8d26d9 added a test case that created a user, but forgot
to drop it again. This is no good; for one thing, it causes repeated
"make installcheck" runs to fail.
The multivariate MCV estimation code may run user-defined operators on
the values in the MCV list, which means that those operators may
potentially leak the values from the MCV list. Guard against leaking
data to unprivileged users by checking that the user has SELECT
privileges on the table or all of the columns referred to by the
statistics.
Additionally, if there are any securityQuals on the RTE (either due to
RLS policies on the table, or accessing the table via a security
barrier view), not all rows may be visible to the current user, even
if they have table or column privileges. Thus we further insist that
the operator be leakproof in this case.

This puts back reverted commit de87a084c0, with some bug fixes.
When two (or more) transactions are waiting for transaction T1 to release a
tuple-level lock, and transaction T1 upgrades its lock to a higher level, a
spurious deadlock can be reported among the waiting transactions when T1
finishes. The simplest example case seems to be:
T1: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
Y: select id from job where name = 'a' for update; -- starts waiting for T1
Z: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
T1: update job set name = 'b' where id = 1;
Z: update job set name = 'c' where id = 1; -- starts waiting for T1
T1: rollback;
At this point, transaction Y is rolled back on account of a deadlock: Y
holds the heavyweight tuple lock and is waiting for the Xmax to be released,
while Z holds part of the multixact and tries to acquire the heavyweight
lock (per protocol) and goes to sleep; once T1 releases its part of the
multixact, Z is awakened only to be put back to sleep on the heavyweight
lock that Y is holding while sleeping. Kaboom.
This can be avoided by having Z skip the heavyweight lock acquisition. As
far as I can see, the biggest downside is that if there are multiple Z
transactions, the order in which they resume after T1 finishes is not
guaranteed.

Regular per-column statistics are stored in pg_statistics catalog, which
is however rather difficult to read, so we also have pg_stats view with
a human-reablable version of the data.
For extended statistic the catalog was fairly easy to read, so we did
not have such human-readable view so far. Commit 9b6babfa2d however did
split the catalog into two, which makes querying harder. Furthermore,
we want to show the multi-column MCV list in a way similar to per-column
stats (and not as a bytea value).
This commit introduces pg_stats_ext view, joining the two catalogs and
massaging the data to produce human-readable output similar to pg_stats.
It also considers RLS and access privileges - the data is shown only when
the user has access to all columns the extended statistic is defined on.

Since extended statistic got introduced in PostgreSQL 10, there was a
single catalog pg_statistic_ext storing both the definitions and built
statistic. That's however problematic when a user is supposed to have
access only to the definitions, but not to user data.
Consider for example pg_dump on a database with RLS enabled - if the
pg_statistic_ext catalog respects RLS (which it should, if it contains
user data), pg_dump would not see any records and the result would not
define any extended statistics. That would be a surprising behavior.
Until now this was not a pressing issue, because the existing types of
extended statistic (functional dependencies and ndistinct coefficients)
do not include any user data directly. This changed with introduction
of MCV lists, which do include most common combinations of values.
The easiest way to fix this is to split the pg_statistic_ext catalog
into two - one for definitions, one for the built statistic values.
The new catalog is called pg_statistic_ext_data, and we're maintaining
a 1:1 relationship with the old catalog - either there are matching
records in both catalogs, or neither of them.

ATExecAlterColumnType failed to consider the possibility that an index
that needs to be rebuilt might be a child of a constraint that needs to be
rebuilt. We missed this so far because usually a constraint index doesn't
have a direct dependency on its table, just on the constraint object.
But if there's a WHERE clause, then dependency analysis of the WHERE
clause results in direct dependencies on the column(s) mentioned in WHERE.
This led to trying to drop and rebuild both the constraint and its
underlying index.
In v11/HEAD, we successfully drop both the index and the constraint,
and then try to rebuild both, and of course the second rebuild hits a
duplicate-index-name problem. Before v11, it fails with obscure messages
about a missing relation OID, due to trying to drop the index twice.
This is essentially the same kind of problem noted in commit
20bef2c31: the possible dependency linkages are broader than what
ATExecAlterColumnType was designed for. It was probably OK when
written, but it's certainly been broken since the introduction of
partial exclusion constraints. Fix by adding an explicit check
for whether any of the indexes-to-be-rebuilt belong to any of the
constraints-to-be-rebuilt, and ignoring any that do.
In passing, fix a latent bug introduced by commit 8b08f7d48: in
get_constraint_index() we must "continue" not "break" when rejecting
a relation of a wrong relkind. This is harmless today because we don't
expect that code path to be taken anyway; but if there ever were any
relations to be ignored, the existing coding would have an extremely
undesirable dependency on the order of pg_depend entries.
Also adjust a couple of obsolete comments.

The original coding of this view relied on a correlated IN sub-query.
Our planner is not very bright about correlated sub-queries, and even
if it were, there's no way for it to know that the output of
pg_get_publication_tables() is duplicate-free, making the de-duplicating
semantics of IN unnecessary. Hence, rewrite as a LATERAL sub-query.
This provides circa 100X speedup for me with a few hundred published
tables (the whole regression database), and things would degrade as
roughly O(published_relations * all_relations) beyond that.
Because the rules.out expected output changes, force a catversion bump.
Ordinarily we might not want to do that post-beta1; but we already know
we'll be doing a catversion bump before beta2 to fix pg_statistic_ext

that something is changing the planner's stats for those tables,

To try to gather some information about what's happening, insert
additional queries to check the basic page/tuple counts for these

on them. (We expect that only the database-wide VACUUM in
sanity_check.sql will have touched them.)
I added the probes not only in select_parallel.sql itself, but
also in stats.sql, bearing in mind that the stats collector's

revert this later.
For partial aggregation combine steps,
AggStatePerTrans->numTransInputs was set to the transition function's
number of inputs, rather than the combine function's number of
inputs (always 1).
That lead to partial aggregates with strict combine functions to
wrongly check for NOT NULL input as required by strictness. When the
aggregate wasn't exactly passed one argument, the strictness check was
either omitted (in the 0 args case) or too many arguments were
checked. In the latter case we'd read beyond the end of
FunctionCallInfoData->args (only in master).
AggStatePerTrans->numTransInputs actually has been wrong since since
9.6, where partial aggregates were added. But it turns out to not be
an active problem in 9.6 and 10, because numTransInputs wasn't used at
all for combine functions: Before c253b722f6 there simply was no NULL
check for the input to strict trans functions, and after that the
check was simply hardcoded for the right offset in fcinfo, as it's
done by code specific to combine functions.
In bf6c614a2f (11) the strictness check was generalized, with common
code doing the strictness checks for both plain and combine transition
functions, based on numTransInputs. For combine functions this lead to
not emitting an expression step to check for strict input in the 0
arguments case, and in the > 1 arguments case, we'd check too many
arguments.Due to the fact that the relevant fcinfo->isnull[2..] was
always zero-initialized (more or less by accident, by being part of
the AggStatePerTrans struct, which is palloc0'ed), there was no
observable damage in the latter case before a9c35cf85c, we just
checked too many array elements.
Due to the changes in a9c35cf85c, > 1 argument bug became visible,
because these days fcinfo is a) dynamically allocated without being
zeroed b) exactly the length required for the number of specified
arguments (hardcoded to 2 in this case).
This commit only contains a fairly minimal fix, setting numTransInputs
to a hardcoded 1 when building a pertrans for a combine function. It
seems likely that we'll want to clean this up further (e.g. the
arguments build_pertrans_for_aggref() aren't particularly meaningful
for combine functions). But the wrap date for 12 beta1 is coming up
fast, so it seems good to have a minimal fix in place.
Backpatch to 11. While AggStatePerTrans->numTransInputs was set
wrongly before that, the value was not used for combine functions.

Before this commit, when ANALYZE was run on a table and serializable

The analyze scan doesn't need a snapshot (nor predicate locking), but
before this commit a scan only contained information about being a

Refactor the option passing to the scan_begin callback to use a

These changes don't change the scan APIs outside of tableam. The flags

of that complexity.
After these changes fixing the bug is trivial, just don't acquire
predicate lock for analyze style scans. That was already done for
bitmap heap scans. Add an assert that a snapshot is passed when
acquiring the predicate lock, so this kind of bug doesn't require
running with serializable.

When this suite runs installcheck, redirect file creations from
src/test/regress to src/bin/pg_upgrade/tmp_check/regress. This closes a
race condition in "make -j check-world". If the pg_upgrade suite wrote
to a given src/test/regress/results file in parallel with the regular
src/test/regress invocation writing it, a test failed spuriously. Even
without parallelism, in "make -k check-world", the suite finishing
second overwrote the other's regression.diffs. This revealed test
"largeobject" assuming @abs_builddir@ is getcwd(), so fix that, too.
Buildfarm client REL_10, released forty-five days ago, supports saving
regression.diffs from its new location. When an older client reports a
pg_upgradeCheck failure, it will no longer include regression.diffs.
Back-patch to 9.5, where pg_upgrade moved to src/bin.

Previously, gen_partprune_steps() always built executor pruning steps
using all suitable clauses, including those containing PARAM_EXEC
Params. This meant that the pruning steps were only completely safe
for executor run-time (scan start) pruning. To prune at executor
startup, we had to ignore the steps involving exec Params. But this
doesn't really work in general, since there may be logic changes
needed as well --- for example, pruning according to the last operator's
btree strategy is the wrong thing if we're not applying that operator.
The rules embodied in gen_partprune_steps() and its minions are
sufficiently complicated that tracking their incremental effects in
other logic seems quite impractical.
Short of a complete redesign, the only safe fix seems to be to run
gen_partprune_steps() twice, once to create executor startup pruning
steps and then again for run-time pruning steps. We can save a few
cycles however by noting during the first scan whether we rejected
any clauses because they involved exec Params --- if not, we don't
need to do the second scan.
In support of this, refactor the internal APIs in partprune.c to make
more use of passing information in the GeneratePruningStepsContext
struct, rather than as separate arguments.
This is, I hope, the last piece of our response to a bug report from
Alan Jackson. Back-patch to v11 where this code came in.

Cross-type comparison operators in a btree or hash opclass might be
only stable not immutable (this is true of timestamp vs. timestamptz
for example). partprune.c ignored this possibility and would perform
plan-time pruning with them anyway, possibly leading to wrong answers
if the environment changed between planning and execution.
To fix, teach gen_partprune_steps() to do things differently when
creating plan-time pruning steps vs. run-time pruning steps.
analyze_partkey_exprs() also needs an extra check, which is rather
annoying but now is not the time to restructure things enough to
avoid that.
While at it, simplify the logic for the plan-time case a little
by insisting that the comparison value be a Const and nothing else.
This relies on the assumption that eval_const_expressions will have
reduced any immutable expression to a Const; which is not quite
100% true, but certainly any case that comes up often enough to be
interesting should have simplification logic there.
Also improve a bunch of inadequate/obsolete/wrong comments.

Backpatch: 9.5-
The original placement of this module in src/fe_utils/ is ill-considered,
because several src/common/ modules have dependencies on it, meaning that
libpgcommon and libpgfeutils now have mutual dependencies. That makes it
pointless to have distinct libraries at all. The intended design is that
libpgcommon is lower-level than libpgfeutils, so only dependencies from
the latter to the former are acceptable.
We already have the precedent that fe_memutils and a couple of other
modules in src/common/ are frontend-only, so it's not stretching anything
out of whack to treat logging.c as a frontend-only module in src/common/.
To the extent that such modules help provide a common frontend/backend
environment for the rest of common/ to use, it's a reasonable design.
(logging.c does not yet provide an ereport() emulation, but one can
dream.)
Hence, move these files over, and revert basically all of the build-system
changes made by commit cc8d41511. There are no places that need to grow
new dependencies on libpgcommon, further reinforcing the idea that this
is the right solution.

SQL's regular-expression substring() function is defined to have a
pattern argument that's separated into three subpatterns by escape-
double-quote markers; the function result is the part of the input
matching the second subpattern. The standard makes it clear that
if there is ambiguity about how to match the input to the subpatterns,
the first and third subpatterns should be taken to match the smallest
possible amount of text (i.e., they're "non greedy", in the terms of
our regex code). We were not doing it that way: the first subpattern
would eat the largest possible amount of text, causing the function
result to be shorter than what the spec requires.
Fix that by attaching explicit greediness quantifiers to the
subpatterns. (This depends on the regex fix in commit 8a29ed053;
before that, this didn't reliably change the regex engine's behavior.)
Also, by adding parentheses around each subpattern, we ensure that
"|" (OR) in the subpatterns behave sanely. Previously, "|" in the
first or third subpatterns didn't work.
This patch also makes the function throw error if you write more than
two escape-double-quote markers, and do something sane if you write
just one, and document that behavior. Previously, an odd number of
markers led to a confusing complaint about unbalanced parentheses,
while extra pairs of markers were just ignored. (Note that the spec
requires exactly two markers, but we've historically allowed there
to be none, and this patch preserves the old behavior for that case.)
In passing, adjust some substring() test cases that didn't really
prove what they said they were testing for: they used patterns
that didn't match the data string, so that the output would be
NULL whether or not the function was really strict.
Although this is certainly a bug fix, changing the behavior in back
branches seems undesirable: applications could perhaps be depending on
the old behavior, since it's not obviously wrong unless you read the
spec very closely. Hence, no back-patch.

A bounded quantifier with m = n = 1 might be thought a no-op. But
according to our documentation (which traces back to Henry Spencer's
original man page) it still imposes greediness, or non-greediness in the
case of the non-greedy variant "{1,1}?", on whatever it's attached to.
This turns out not to work though, because parseqatom() optimizes away
the m = n = 1 case without regard for whether it's supposed to change
the greediness of the argument RE.
We can fix this by just not applying the optimization when the greediness
needs to change; the subsequent general cases handle it fine.
The three cases in which we can still apply the optimization are
(a) no quantifier, or quantifier does not impose a preference;
(b) atom has no greediness property, implying it cannot match a
variable amount of text anyway; or
(c) quantifier's greediness is same as atom's.
Note that in most cases where one of these applies, we'd have exited
earlier in the "not a messy case" fast path. I think it's now only
possible to get to the optimization when the atom involves capturing
parentheses or a non-top-level backref.
Back-patch to all supported branches. I'd ordinarily be hesitant to
put a subtle behavioral change into back branches, but in this case
it's very hard to see a reason why somebody would write "{1,1}?" unless
they're trying to get the documented change-of-greediness behavior.

create_merge_append_plan failed to honor the CP_EXACT_TLIST flag:
it would generate the expected targetlist but then it felt free to
add resjunk sort targets to it. This demonstrably leads to assertion
failures in v11 and HEAD, and it's probably just accidental that we
don't see the same in older branches. I've not looked into whether
there would be any real-world consequences in non-assert builds.
In HEAD, create_append_plan has sprouted the same problem, so fix
that too (although we do not have any test cases that seem able to
reach that bug). This is an oversight in commit 3fc6e2d7f which
invented the CP_EXACT_TLIST flag, so back-patch to 9.6 where that
came in.
convert_subquery_pathkeys would create pathkeys for subquery output
values if they match any EquivalenceClass known in the outer query
and are available in the subquery's syntactic targetlist. However,
the second part of that condition is wrong, because such values might
not appear in the subquery relation's reltarget list, which would
mean that they couldn't be accessed above the level of the subquery
scan. We must check that they appear in the reltarget list, instead.
This can lead to dropping knowledge about the subquery's sort
ordering, but I believe it's okay, because any sort key that the
outer query actually has any interest in would appear in the
reltarget list.
This second issue is of very long standing, but right now there's no
evidence that it causes observable problems before 9.6, so I refrained
from back-patching further than that. We can revisit that choice if
somebody finds a way to make it cause problems in older branches.
(Developing useful test cases for these issues is really problematic;
fixing convert_subquery_pathkeys removes the only known way to exhibit
the create_merge_append_plan bug, and neither of the test cases added
by this patch causes a problem in all branches, even when considering
the issues separately.)
The second issue explains bug #15795 from Suresh Kumar R ("could not
find pathkey item to sort" with nested DISTINCT queries). I stumbled
across the first issue while investigating that.

In examine_variable() and examine_simple_variable(), when checking the
user's table and column privileges to determine whether to grant
access to the pg_statistic data, use checkAsUser for the privilege
checks, if it's set. This will be the case if we're accessing the
table via a view, to indicate that we should perform privilege checks
as the view owner rather than the current user.
This change makes this planner check consistent with the check in the
executor, so the planner will be able to make use of statistics if the
table is accessible via the view. This fixes a performance regression
introduced by commit e2d4ef8de8, which affects queries against
non-security barrier views in the case where the user doesn't have
privileges on the underlying table, but the view owner does.
Note that it continues to provide the same safeguards controlling
access to pg_statistic for direct table access (in which case
checkAsUser won't be set) and for security barrier views, because of
the nearby checks on rte->security_barrier and rte->securityQuals.
Back-patch to all supported branches because e2d4ef8de8 was.

In commit e2d4ef8de8, security checks were added to prevent
user-supplied operators from running over data from pg_statistic
unless the user has table or column privileges on the table, or the
operator is leakproof. For a table with RLS, however, checking for
table or column privileges is insufficient, since that does not
guarantee that the user has permission to view all of the column's
data.
Fix this by also checking for securityQuals on the RTE, and insisting
that the operator be leakproof if there are any. Thus the
leakproofness check will only be skipped if there are no securityQuals
and the user has table or column privileges on the table -- i.e., only
if we know that the user has access to all the data in the column.

Backpatch: 9.4-, like 3dbb317d3
The interaction of these parameters was a bit confused/confusing,
and in fact v11 entirely misses the opportunity to apply partition
constraints when a partition is accessed directly (rather than
indirectly from its parent).
In HEAD, establish the principle that enable_partition_pruning controls
partition pruning and nothing else. When accessing a partition via its
parent, we do partition pruning (if enabled by enable_partition_pruning)
and then there is no need to consider partition constraints in the
constraint_exclusion logic. When accessing a partition directly, its
partition constraints are applied by the constraint_exclusion logic,
only if constraint_exclusion = on.
In v11, we can't have such a clean division of these GUCs' effects,
partly because we don't want to break compatibility too much in a
released branch, and partly because the clean coding requires
inheritance_planner to have applied partition pruning to a partitioned
target table, which it doesn't in v11. However, we can tweak things
enough to cover the missed case, which seems like a good idea since
it's potentially a performance regression from v10. This patch keeps
v11's previous behavior in which enable_partition_pruning overrides
constraint_exclusion for an inherited target table, though.
In HEAD, also teach relation_excluded_by_constraints that it's okay to use
inheritable constraints when trying to prune a traditional inheritance
tree. This might not be thought worthy of effort given that that feature
is semi-deprecated now, but we have enough infrastructure that it only
takes a couple more lines of code to do it correctly.

When reindexing individual indexes on pg_class it was possible to
either trigger an assertion failure:
TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(!ReindexIsProcessingIndex(((index)->rd_id)))
That's because reindex_index() called SetReindexProcessing() - which
enables an asserts ensuring no index insertions happen into the index
- before calling RelationSetNewRelfilenode(). That not correct for
indexes on pg_class, because RelationSetNewRelfilenode() updates the
relevant pg_class row, which needs to update the indexes.
The are two reasons this wasn't noticed earlier. Firstly the bug
doesn't trigger when reindexing all of pg_class, as reindex_relation
has code "hiding" all yet-to-be-reindexed indexes. Secondly, the bug
only triggers when the the update to pg_class doesn't turn out to be a
HOT update - otherwise there's no index insertion to trigger the
bug. Most of the time there's enough space, making this bug hard to
trigger.
To fix, move RelationSetNewRelfilenode() to before the
SetReindexProcessing() (and, together with some other code, to outside
of the PG_TRY()).
To make sure the error checking intended by SetReindexProcessing() is
more robust, modify CatalogIndexInsert() to check
ReindexIsProcessingIndex() even when the update is a HOT update.
Also add a few regression tests for REINDEXing of system catalogs.
The last two improvements would have prevented some of the issues

Backpatch: 9.4-, the bug is present in all branches
Be more consistent about use of XXXGetDatum macros in new jsonpath
code. This is mostly to avoid having code that looks randomly
different from everyplace else that's doing the exact same thing.
In pg_regress.c, avoid an unreferenced-function warning from
compilers that don't understand pg_attribute_unused(). Putting
the function inside the same #ifdef as its only caller is more
straightforward coding anyway.
In be-secure-openssl.c, avoid use of pg_attribute_unused() on a label.
That's pretty creative, but there's no good reason to suppose that
it's portable, and there's absolutely no need to use goto's here in the
first place. (This wasn't actually causing any buildfarm complaints,
but it's new code in v12 so it has no portability track record.)
Fix DefineIndex so that it doesn't attempt to pass down a to-be-reused
index relfilenode to a child index creation, and fix TryReuseIndex
to not think that reuse is sensible for a partitioned index.
In v11, this fixes a problem where ALTER TABLE on a partitioned table
could assign the same relfilenode to several different child indexes,
causing very nasty catalog corruption --- in fact, attempting to DROP
the partitioned table then leads not only to a database crash, but to
inability to restart because the same crash will recur during WAL replay.
Either of these two changes would be enough to prevent the failure, but
since neither action could possibly be sane, let's put in both changes
for future-proofing.
In HEAD, no such bug manifests, but that's just an accidental consequence
of having changed the pg_class representation of partitioned indexes to
have relfilenode = 0. Both of these changes still seem like smart
future-proofing.
This is only a stop-gap because the code for ALTER TABLE on a partitioned
table with a no-op type change still leaves a great deal to be desired.
As the added regression tests show, it gets things wrong for comments on
child indexes/constraints, and it is regenerating child indexes it doesn't
have to. However, fixing those problems will take more work which may not
get back-patched into v11. We need a fix for the corruption problem now.

Commit ca4103025d left a few loose ends. The most important one
(broken pg_dump output) is already fixed by virtue of commit
3b23552ad8, but some things remained:
* When ALTER TABLE rewrites tables, the indexes must remain in the
tablespace they were originally in. This didn't work because
index recreation during ALTER TABLE runs manufactured SQL (yuck),
which runs afoul of default_tablespace in competition with the parent
relation tablespace. To fix, reset default_tablespace to the empty
string temporarily, and add the TABLESPACE clause as appropriate.
* Setting a partitioned rel's tablespace to the database default is
confusing; if it worked, it would direct the partitions to that
tablespace regardless of default_tablespace. But in reality it does
not work, and making it work is a larger project. Therefore, throw
an error when this condition is detected, to alert the unwary.
Add some docs and tests, too.

cache_locale_time (extraction of LC_TIME-related info) had never been
taught the lessons we previously learned about extraction of info related
to LC_MONETARY and LC_NUMERIC. Specifically, commit 95a777c61 taught
PGLC_localeconv() that data coming out of localeconv() was in an encoding
determined by the relevant locale, but we didn't realize that there's a
similar issue with strftime(). And commit a4930e7ca hardened
PGLC_localeconv() against errors occurring partway through, but failed
to do likewise for cache_locale_time(). So, rearrange the latter
function to perform encoding conversion and not risk failure while
it's got the locales set to temporary values.
This time around I also changed PGLC_localeconv() to treat it as FATAL
if it can't restore the previous settings of the locale values. There
is no reason (except possibly OOM) for that to fail, and proceeding with
the wrong locale values seems like a seriously bad idea --- especially
on Windows where we have to also temporarily change LC_CTYPE. Also,
protect against the possibility that we can't identify the codeset
reported for LC_MONETARY or LC_NUMERIC; rather than just failing,
try to validate the data without conversion.
The user-visible symptom this fixes is that if LC_TIME is set to a locale
name that implies an encoding different from the database encoding,
non-ASCII localized day and month names would be retrieved in the wrong
encoding, leading to either unexpected encoding-conversion error reports
or wrong output from to_char(). The other possible failure modes are
unlikely enough that we've not seen reports of them, AFAIK.
The encoding conversion problems do not manifest on Windows, since
we'd already created special-case code to handle that issue there.

Up to now, DefineIndex() was responsible for adding attnotnull constraints
to the columns of a primary key, in any case where it hadn't been
convenient for transformIndexConstraint() to mark those columns as
is_not_null. It (or rather its minion index_check_primary_key) did this
by executing an ALTER TABLE SET NOT NULL command for the target table.
The trouble with this solution is that if we're creating the index due
to ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY, and the outer ALTER TABLE has additional
sub-commands, the inner ALTER TABLE's operations executed at the wrong
time with respect to the outer ALTER TABLE's operations. In particular,
the inner ALTER would perform a validation scan at a point where the
table's storage might be inconsistent with its catalog entries. (This is
on the hairy edge of being a security problem, but AFAICS it isn't one
because the inner scan would only be interested in the tuples' null
bitmaps.) This can result in unexpected failures, such as the one seen
in bug #15580 from Allison Kaptur.
To fix, let's remove the attempt to do SET NOT NULL from DefineIndex(),
reducing index_check_primary_key's role to verifying that the columns are
already not null. (It shouldn't ever see such a case, but it seems wise
to keep the check for safety.) Instead, make transformIndexConstraint()
generate ALTER TABLE SET NOT NULL subcommands to be executed ahead of
the ADD PRIMARY KEY operation in every case where it can't force the
column to be created already-not-null. This requires only minor surgery
in parse_utilcmd.c, and it makes for a much more satisfying spec for
transformIndexConstraint(): it's no longer having to take it on faith
that someone else will handle addition of NOT NULL constraints.
To make that work, we have to move the execution of AT_SetNotNull into
an ALTER pass that executes ahead of AT_PASS_ADD_INDEX. I moved it to
AT_PASS_COL_ATTRS, and put that after AT_PASS_ADD_COL to avoid failure
when the column is being added in the same command. This incidentally
fixes a bug in the only previous usage of AT_PASS_COL_ATTRS, for
AT_SetIdentity: it didn't work either for a newly-added column.
Playing around with this exposed a separate bug in ALTER TABLE ONLY ...
ADD PRIMARY KEY for partitioned tables. The intent of the ONLY modifier
in that context is to prevent doing anything that would require holding
lock for a long time --- but the implied SET NOT NULL would recurse to
the child partitions, and do an expensive validation scan for any child
where the column(s) were not already NOT NULL. To fix that, invent a
new ALTER subcommand AT_CheckNotNull that just insists that a child
column be already NOT NULL, and apply that, not AT_SetNotNull, when
recursing to children in this scenario. This results in a slightly laxer
definition of ALTER TABLE ONLY ... SET NOT NULL for partitioned tables,
too: that command will now work as long as all children are already NOT
NULL, whereas before it just threw up its hands if there were any
partitions.
In passing, clean up the API of generateClonedIndexStmt(): remove a
useless argument, ensure that the output argument is not left undefined,
update the header comment.
A small side effect of this change is that no-such-column errors in ALTER
TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY now produce a different message that includes the
table name, because they are now detected by the SET NOT NULL step which
has historically worded its error that way. That seems fine to me, so
I didn't make any effort to avoid the wording change.
The basic bug #15580 is of very long standing, and these other bugs
aren't new in v12 either. However, this is a pretty significant change
in the way ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY works. On balance it seems best
not to back-patch, at least not till we get some more confidence that
this patch has no new bugs.
Patch by me, but thanks to Jie Zhang for a preliminary version.

xml.c passed format = 1 to xmlNodeDump(), resulting in sometimes getting
extra whitespace (newlines + spaces) in the output. We don't really want
that, first because whitespace might be semantically significant in some
XML uses, and second because it happens only very inconsistently. Only
one case in our regression tests is affected.
This potentially affects the results of xpath() and the XMLTABLE construct,
when emitting nodeset values.
Note that the older code in contrib/xml2 doesn't do this; it seems

This commit fixes a couple of issues related to the way password
verifiers hashed with MD5 or SCRAM-SHA-256 are detected, leading to
being able to store in catalogs passwords which do not follow the
supported hash formats:
- A MD5-hashed entry was checked based on if its header uses "md5" and
if the string length matches what is expected. Unfortunately the code
never checked if the hash only used hexadecimal characters, as reported
by Tom Lane.
- A SCRAM-hashed entry was checked based on only its header, which
should be "SCRAM-SHA-256$", but it never checked for any fields
afterwards, as reported by Jonathan Katz.
Backpatch down to v10, which is where SCRAM has been introduced, and

Per discussion with others, allowing REINDEX INDEX CONCURRENTLY to work
for invalid indexes when working directly on them can have a lot of
value to unlock situations with invalid indexes without having to use a
dance involving DROP INDEX followed by an extra CREATE INDEX
CONCURRENTLY (which would not work for indexes with constraint
dependency anyway). This also does not create extra bloat on the
relation involved as this works on individual indexes, so let's enable
it.
Note that REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY still bypasses invalid indexes as
we don't want to bloat the number of indexes defined on a relation in
the event of multiple and successive failures of REINDEX CONCURRENTLY.
More regression tests are added to cover those behaviors, using an
invalid index created with CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY.

Concurrent autovacuum could result in a change in the order of the
live rows in timestamp_tbl. While this would not happen with the
default autovacuum parameters, it's fairly easy to hit if
autovacuum_vacuum_threshold is made small enough to allow autovac
to decide to process this table. That's a stumbling block for trying
to exercise autovacuum aggressively using the core regression tests.
To fix, replace an unqualified DELETE with a TRUNCATE. There's a

Since Postgres 10, SHOW commands can be triggered with replication
connections in a WAL sender context, however it missed that a
transaction context is needed for syscache lookups. This commit makes
sure that the syscache lookups can happen correctly by setting a
transaction context when running SHOW commands in a WAL sender.
Superuser-only parameters can be displayed using SHOW commands not only
to superusers, but also to members of system role pg_read_all_settings,
which requires a syscache lookup to check if the connected role is a
member of this system role or not, or the instance crashes. Superusers
do not need to check the syscache so it worked correctly in this case.

Up to now the tests of pg_rewind have been using a superuser for all its

ought to be reviewed) when involving an online source server, still it
is possible to use a non-superuser role to do that as long as this role
is granted permissions to execute all the source-side functions used for
the rewind. This is possible since v11, and was already documented as
of bfc8068.
PostgresNode::init is extended so as callers of this routine can add
extra options to configure the authentication of a new node, which gets
used by this commit, and allows the tests to work properly on Windows

postmaster startup scrutinizes any shared memory segment recorded in
postmaster.pid, exiting if that segment matches the current data
directory and has an attached process. When the postmaster.pid file was
missing, a starting postmaster used weaker checks. Change to use the
same checks in both scenarios. This increases the chance of a startup
failure, in lieu of data corruption, if the DBA does "kill -9 `head -n1

will no longer stop if shmat() of an old segment fails with EACCES. A
postmaster will no longer recycle segments pertaining to other data

This test script verifies that KNN searches of an SP-GiST index
produce the same sort order as a seqscan-and-sort. The FULL JOINs
used for that are exceedingly slow, however. Investigation shows
that the problem is that the initial join is on the rank() values,
and we have a lot of duplicates due to the data set containing 1000
duplicate points. We're therefore going to produce 1000000 join
rows that have to be thrown away again by the join filter.
We can improve matters by using row_number() instead of rank(),
so that the initial join keys are unique. The catch is that
that makes the results sensitive to the sorting of rows with
equal distances from the reference point. That doesn't matter
for the actually-equal points, but as luck would have it, the
data set also contains two distinct points that have identical
distances to the origin. So those two rows could legitimately
appear in either order, causing unwanted output from the check
queries.
However, it doesn't seem like it's the job of this test to
check whether the <-> operator correctly computes distances;
its charter is just to verify that SP-GiST emits the values
in distance order. So we can dodge the indeterminacy problem
by having the check only compare row numbers and distances
not the actual point values.
This change reduces the run time of create_index_spgist by a good
three-quarters, on my machine, with ensuing beneficial effects on
the runtime of create_index (thanks to interactions with CREATE
INDEX CONCURRENTLY tests in the latter). I see a net improvement
of more than 2X in the runtime of their parallel test group.

The point of this change is to increase the potential for parallelism
while running the core regression tests. Most people these days are
using parallel testing modes on multi-core machines, so we might as
well try a bit harder to keep multiple cores busy. Hence, a test that
runs much longer than others in its parallel group is a candidate to
be sub-divided.
In this patch, create_index.sql and join.sql are split up.
I haven't changed the content of the tests in any way, just
moved them.
I moved create_index.sql's SP-GiST-related tests into a new script
create_index_spgist, and moved its btree multilevel page deletion test
over to the existing script btree_index. (btree_index is a more natural
home for that test, and it's shorter than others in its parallel group,
so this doesn't hurt total runtime of that group.) There might be
room for more aggressive splitting of create_index, but this is enough
to improve matters considerably.
Likewise, I moved join.sql's "exercises for the hash join code" into
a new file join_hash. Those exercises contributed three-quarters of
the script's runtime. Which might well be excessive ... but for the
moment, I'm satisfied with shoving them into a different parallel
group, where they can share runtime with the roughly-equally-lengthy
gist test.
(Note for anybody following along at home: there are interesting
interactions between the runtimes of create_index and anything running
in parallel with it, because the tests of CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY
in that file will repeatedly block waiting for concurrent transactions
to commit. As committed in this patch, create_index and
create_index_spgist have roughly equal runtimes, but that's mostly an
artifact of forced synchronization of the CONCURRENTLY tests; when run
serially, create_index is much faster. A followup patch will reduce
the runtime of create_index_spgist and thereby also create_index.)

The test for statement timeout has a 2-second timeout, which was only
moderately annoying when it was written, but nowadays it contributes
a pretty significant chunk of the elapsed time needed to run the core
regression tests on a fast machine. We can improve this situation by
pushing the test into a plpgsql-specific test file instead of having
it in a core regression test. That's a clean win when considering
just the core tests. Even when considering check-world or a buildfarm
test run, we should come out ahead because the core tests get run
more times in those sequences.
Furthermore, since the plpgsql tests aren't currently parallelized,
it seems likely that the timing problems reflected in commit f1e671a0b
(which increased that timeout from 1 sec to 2) will be much less severe
in this context. Hence, let's try cutting the timeout back to 1 second
in hopes of a further win for check-world. We can undo that if
buildfarm experience proves it to be a bad idea.
To give the new test file some modicum of intellectual coherency,
I moved the surrounding tests related to error-trapping along with
the statement timeout test proper. Those other tests don't run long
enough to have any particular bearing on test-runtime considerations.
The tests are the same as before, except with minor adjustments to
not depend on an externally-created table.

join_is_legal() needs to reject forming certain outer joins in cases
where that would lead the planner down a blind alley. However, it
mistakenly supposed that the way to handle full joins was to treat them
as applying the same constraints as for left joins, only to both sides.
That doesn't work, as shown in bug #15741 from Anthony Skorski: given
a lateral reference out of a join that's fully enclosed by a full join,
the code would fail to believe that any join ordering is legal, resulting
in errors like "failed to build any N-way joins".
However, we don't really need to consider full joins at all for this
purpose, because we effectively force them to be evaluated in syntactic
order, and that order is always legal for lateral references. Hence,
get rid of this broken logic for full joins and just ignore them instead.
This seems to have been an oversight in commit 7e19db0c0.

This commit fixes three, unfortunately related, issues:
1) Since 5db6df0c01, the introduction of DML via tableam, it was
possible to trigger "ERROR: unexpected table_lock_tuple status: 1"
when updating a row that was previously updated in the same
transaction - but only when the previously updated row was before
updated in a concurrent transaction (and READ COMMITTED was
used). The reason for that was that that case simply wasn't
expected. Fixing that lead to:
2) Even before the above commit, there were error checks (introduced
in 6868ed7491) preventing a row being updated by different
commands within the same statement (say in a function called by an
UPDATE) - but that check wasn't performed when the row was first
updated in a concurrent transaction - instead the second update was
silently skipped in that case. After this change we throw the same
error as we'd without the concurrent transaction.
3) The error messages (introduced in 6868ed7491) preventing such
updates emitted the same error message for both DELETE and
UPDATE ("tuple to be updated was already modified by an operation
triggered by the current command"). While that could be changed
separately, it made it hard to write tests that verify the correct
correct behavior of the code.
This commit changes heap's implementation of table_lock_tuple() to
return TM_SelfModified instead of TM_Invisible (previously loosely
modeled after EvalPlanQualFetch), and teaches nodeModifyTable.c to
handle that in response to table_lock_tuple() and not just in response
to table_(delete|update).
Additionally it fixes the wrong error message (see 3 above). The
comment for table_lock_tuple() is also adjusted to state that
TM_Deleted won't return information in TM_FailureData - it'll not
always be available.
This also adds tests to ensure that DELETE/UPDATE correctly error out
when affecting a row that concurrently was modified by another
transaction.

Before those commits, partitioning-related code in the executor could
assume that ModifyTableState.resultRelInfo[] contains only leaf partitions.
However, now a fully-pruned update results in a dummy ModifyTable that
references the root partitioned table, and that breaks some stuff.
In v11, this led to an assertion or core dump in the tuple routing code.
Fix by disabling tuple routing, since we don't need that anyway.
(I chose to do that in HEAD as well for safety, even though the problem
doesn't manifest in HEAD as it stands.)
In v10, this confused ExecInitModifyTable's decision about whether it
needed to close the root table. But we can get rid of that altogether
by being smarter about where to find the root table.
Note that since the referenced commits haven't shipped yet, this
isn't fixing any bug the field has seen.

The foreign-key-checking loop in ATRewriteTables failed to ignore
relations without storage (e.g., partitioned tables), unlike the
initial loop. This accidentally worked as long as RI_Initial_Check
succeeded, which it does in most practical cases (including all the
ones exercised in the existing regression tests :-(). However, if
that failed, as for instance when there are permissions issues,
then we entered the slow fire-the-trigger-on-each-tuple path.
And that would try to read from the referencing relation, and fail
if it lacks storage.
A second problem, recently introduced in HEAD, was that this loop
had been broken by sloppy refactoring for the tableam API changes.
Repair both issues, and add a regression test case so we have some
coverage on this code path. Back-patch as needed to v11.
(It looks like this code could do with additional bulletproofing,
but let's get a working test case in place first.)

If we need ordered output from a scan of a partitioned table, but
the ordering matches the partition ordering, then we don't need to
use a MergeAppend to combine the pre-ordered per-partition scan
results: a plain Append will produce the same results. This
both saves useless comparison work inside the MergeAppend proper,
and allows us to start returning tuples after istarting up just
the first child node not all of them.
However, all is not peaches and cream, because if some of the
child nodes have high startup costs then there will be big
discontinuities in the tuples-returned-versus-elapsed-time curve.
The planner's cost model cannot handle that (yet, anyway).
If we model the Append's startup cost as being just the first
child's startup cost, we may drastically underestimate the cost
of fetching slightly more tuples than are available from the first
child. Since we've had bad experiences with over-optimistic choices
of "fast start" plans for ORDER BY LIMIT queries, that seems scary.
As a klugy workaround, set the startup cost estimate for an ordered
Append to be the sum of its children's startup costs (as MergeAppend
would). This doesn't really describe reality, but it's less likely
to cause a bad plan choice than an underestimated startup cost would.
In practice, the cases where we really care about this optimization
will have child plans that are IndexScans with zero startup cost,
so that the overly conservative estimate is still just zero.

Previously it was allowed to set default_table_access_method to an
empty string. That makes sense for default_tablespace, where that was
copied from, as it signals falling back to the database's default
tablespace. As there is no equivalent for table AMs, forbid that.
Also make sure to throw a usable error when creating a table using an
index AM, by using get_am_type_oid() to implement get_table_am_oid()
instead of a separate copy. Previously we'd error out only later, in
GetTableAmRoutine().
Thirdly remove GetTableAmRoutineByAmId() - it was only used in an
earlier version of 8586bf7ed8.
Add tests for the above (some for index AMs as well).
Commit c1afd175, which added support for rootdescend verification to
amcheck, added only minimal regression test coverage. Address this by
making sure that rootdescend verification is run on a multi-level index.
In passing, simplify some of the regression tests that exercise
multi-level nbtree page deletion.
Both issues spotted while rereviewing coverage of the nbtree patch
series using gcov.
This is intended for use mostly in test scripts for external tools,
which could do without cross-PG-version variations in error message
wording. Of course, the SQLSTATE isn't guaranteed stable either, but
it should be more so than the error message text.
Note: there's a bit of an ABI change for libpq here, but it seems
OK because if somebody compiles against a newer version of libpq-fe.h,
and then tries to pass PQERRORS_SQLSTATE to PQsetErrorVerbosity()
of an older libpq library, it will be accepted and then act like
PQERRORS_DEFAULT, thanks to the way the tests in pqBuildErrorMessage3
have historically been phrased. That seems acceptable.

postmaster startup scrutinizes any shared memory segment recorded in
postmaster.pid, exiting if that segment matches the current data
directory and has an attached process. When the postmaster.pid file was
missing, a starting postmaster used weaker checks. Change to use the
same checks in both scenarios. This increases the chance of a startup
failure, in lieu of data corruption, if the DBA does "kill -9 `head -n1
postmaster.pid` && rm postmaster.pid && pg_ctl -w start". A postmaster
will no longer recycle segments pertaining to other data directories.
That's good for production, but it's bad for integration tests that
crash a postmaster and immediately delete its data directory. Such a
test now leaks a segment indefinitely. No "make check-world" test does
that. win32_shmem.c already avoided all these problems. In 9.6 and

This uses the progress reporting infrastructure added by c16dc1aca5,

There are two pieces to this: one is index-AM-agnostic, and the other is
AM-specific. The latter is fairly elaborate for btrees, including
reportage for parallel index builds and the separate phases that btree
index creation uses; other index AMs, which are much simpler in their

sufficient, at least for non-concurrent builds.
The index-AM-agnostic part is fairly complete, providing insight into

This unifies the various ad hoc logging (message printing, error
printing) systems used throughout the command-line programs.
Features:
- Program name is automatically prefixed.
- Message string does not end with newline. This removes a common
source of inconsistencies and omissions.
- Additionally, a final newline is automatically stripped, simplifying
use of PQerrorMessage() etc., another common source of mistakes.
- I converted error message strings to use %m where possible.
- As a result of the above several points, more translatable message
strings can be shared between different components and between
frontends and backend, without gratuitous punctuation or whitespace
differences.
- There is support for setting a "log level". This is not meant to be
user-facing, but can be used internally to implement debug or
verbose modes.
- Lazy argument evaluation, so no significant overhead if logging at
some level is disabled.
- Some color in the messages, similar to gcc and clang. Set
PG_COLOR=auto to try it out. Some colors are predefined, but can be
customized by setting PG_COLORS.
- Common files (common/, fe_utils/, etc.) can handle logging much more
simply by just using one API without worrying too much about the
context of the calling program, requiring callbacks, or having to
pass "progname" around everywhere.
- Some programs called setvbuf() to make sure that stderr is
unbuffered, even on Windows. But not all programs did that. This
is now done centrally.
Soft goals:
- Reduces vertical space use and visual complexity of error reporting
in the source code.
- Encourages more deliberate classification of messages. For example,
in some cases it wasn't clear without analyzing the surrounding code
whether a message was meant as an error or just an info.
- Concepts and terms are vaguely aligned with popular logging
frameworks such as log4j and Python logging.
This is all just about printing stuff out. Nothing affects program
flow (e.g., fatal exits). The uses are just too varied to do that.
Some existing code had wrappers that do some kind of print-and-exit,
and I adapted those.
I tried to keep the output mostly the same, but there is a lot of
historical baggage to unwind and special cases to consider, and I
might not always have succeeded. One significant change is that
pg_rewind used to write all error messages to stdout. That is now
changed to stderr.

Previously, the planner created RangeTblEntry and RelOptInfo structs
for every partition of a partitioned table, even though many of them
might later be deemed uninteresting thanks to partition pruning logic.
This incurred significant overhead when there are many partitions.
Arrange to postpone creation of these data structures until after
we've processed the query enough to identify restriction quals for
the partitioned table, and then apply partition pruning before not
after creation of each partition's data structures. In this way
we need not open the partition relations at all for partitions that
the planner has no real interest in.
For queries that can be proven at plan time to access only a small
number of partitions, this patch improves the practical maximum
number of partitions from under 100 to perhaps a few thousand.

While trying to plan a partitionwise join, we may be faced with cases
where one or both input partitions for a particular segment of the join
have been pruned away. In HEAD and v11, this is problematic because
earlier processing didn't bother to make a pruned RelOptInfo fully
valid. With an upcoming patch to make partition pruning more efficient,
this'll be even more problematic because said RelOptInfo won't exist at
all.
The existing code attempts to deal with this by retroactively making the
RelOptInfo fully valid, but that causes crashes under GEQO because join
planning is done in a short-lived memory context. In v11 we could
probably have fixed this by switching to the planner's main context
while fixing up the RelOptInfo, but that idea doesn't scale well to the
upcoming patch. It would be better not to mess with the base-relation
data structures during join planning, anyway --- that's just a recipe
for order-of-operations bugs.
In many cases, though, we don't actually need the child RelOptInfo,
because if the input is certainly empty then the join segment's result
is certainly empty, so we can skip making a join plan altogether. (The
existing code ultimately arrives at the same conclusion, but only after
doing a lot more work.) This approach works except when the pruned-away
partition is on the nullable side of a LEFT, ANTI, or FULL join, and the
other side isn't pruned. But in those cases the existing code leaves a
lot to be desired anyway --- the correct output is just the result of
the unpruned side of the join, but we were emitting a useless outer join
against a dummy Result. Pending somebody writing code to handle that
more nicely, let's just abandon the partitionwise-join optimization in
such cases.
When the modified code skips making a join plan, it doesn't make a
join RelOptInfo either; this requires some upper-level code to
cope with nulls in part_rels[] arrays. We would have had to have
that anyway after the upcoming patch.
Back-patch to v11 since the crash is demonstrable there.

Column references are not allowed in default expressions and partition
bound expressions, and are restricted as such once the transformation of
their expressions is done. However, trying to use more complex column
references can lead to confusing error messages. For example, trying to
use a two-field column reference name for default expressions and
partition bounds leads to "missing FROM-clause entry for table", which
makes no sense in their respective context.
In order to make the errors generated more useful, this commit adds more
verbose messages when transforming column references depending on the
context. This has a little consequence though: for example an
expression using an aggregate with a column reference as argument would
cause an error to be generated for the column reference, while the
aggregate was the problem reported before this commit because column
references get transformed first.
The confusion exists for default expressions for a long time, and the
problem is new as of v12 for partition bounds. Still per the lack of
complaints on the matter no backpatch is done.

Since 7c079d7, partition bounds are able to use generalized expression
syntax when processed, treating "minvalue" and "maxvalue" as specific
cases as they get passed down for transformation as a column references.
The checks for infinite bounds in range expressions have been lax
though, causing crashes when trying to use column reference names with

CREATE TABLE list_parted (a int) PARTITION BY LIST (a);
CREATE TABLE part_list_crash PARTITION OF list_parted
FOR VALUES IN (somename.somename);
Note that the creation of the second relation should fail as partition
bounds cannot have column references in their expressions, so when
finding an expression which does not match the expected infinite bounds,
then this commit lets the generic transformation machinery check after
it. The error message generated in this case references as well a
missing RTE, which is confusing. This problem will be treated

for now only the cases where a crash can happen are fixed.

If there's only one child relation, the Append or MergeAppend isn't
doing anything useful, and can be elided. It does have a purpose
during planning though, which is to serve as a buffer between parent
and child Var numbering. Therefore we keep it all the way through
to setrefs.c, and get rid of it only after fixing references in the
plan level(s) above it. This works largely the same as setrefs.c's
ancient hack to get rid of no-op SubqueryScan nodes, and can even
share some code with that.
Note the change to make setrefs.c use apply_tlist_labeling rather than
ad-hoc code. This has the effect of propagating the child's resjunk
and ressortgroupref labels, which formerly weren't propagated when
removing a SubqueryScan. Doing that is demonstrably necessary for
the [Merge]Append cases, and seems harmless for SubqueryScan, if only
because trivial_subqueryscan is afraid to collapse cases where the
resjunk marking differs. (I suspect that restriction could now be
removed, though it's unclear that it'd make any new matches possible,

subtle, so it's not surprising that Coverity didn't see it, and it's not
very obvious to humans either. Refactor it, so that the second loop
re-computes the differences, instead of carrying them over from the first
loop in the 'diffs' array. This way, the 'diffs' array is not needed
anymore. It makes no measurable difference in performance, and seems more
straightforward this way.
Also, improve the comments in simple8b_encode(): fix the comment about its
return value that was flat-out wrong, and explain the condition when it
returns EMPTY_CODEWORD better.
In the passing, move the 'selector' from the codeword's low bits to the
high bits. It doesn't matter much, but looking at the original paper, and
googling around for other Simple-8b implementations, that's how it's
usually done.
Per Coverity, and Tom Lane's report off-list.
Now that the ordering of DROP messages ought to be stable everywhere,
we should not need these kluges of hiding DETAIL output just to avoid
unstable ordering. Hiding it's not great for test coverage, so
let's undo that where possible.
In a small number of places, it's necessary to leave it in, for
example because the output might include a variable pg_temp_nnn
schema name. I also left things alone in places where the details
would depend on other regression test scripts, e.g. plpython_drop.sql.
Perhaps buildfarm experience will show this to be a bad idea,
but if so I'd like to know why.

Commit 8aa9dd74b didn't quite finish the job in this area after all,
because DROP ROLE has a code path distinct from DROP OWNED BY, and
it was still reporting dependent objects in whatever order the index
scan returned them in.
Buildfarm experience shows that index ordering of equal-keyed objects is
significantly less stable than before in the wake of using heap TIDs as
tie-breakers. So if we try to hide the unstable ordering by suppressing
DETAIL reports, we're just going to end up having to do that for every
DROP that reports multiple objects. That's not great from a coverage
or problem-detection standpoint, and it's something we'll inevitably
forget in future patches, leading to more iterations of fixing-an-
unstable-result. So let's just bite the bullet and sort here too.

Add command variants COMMIT AND CHAIN and ROLLBACK AND CHAIN, which
start new transactions with the same transaction characteristics as the
just finished one, per SQL standard.
Support for transaction chaining in PL/pgSQL is also added. This
functionality is especially useful when running COMMIT in a loop in
PL/pgSQL.

This adds new, required, table AM callbacks for insert/delete/update
and lock_tuple. To be able to reasonably use those, the EvalPlanQual
mechanism had to be adapted, moving more logic into the AM.
Previously both delete/update/lock call-sites and the EPQ mechanism had
to have awareness of the specific tuple format to be able to fetch the
latest version of a tuple. Obviously that needs to be abstracted
away. To do so, move the logic that find the latest row version into
the AM. lock_tuple has a new flag argument,
TUPLE_LOCK_FLAG_FIND_LAST_VERSION, that forces it to lock the last
version, rather than the current one. It'd have been possible to do
so via a separate callback as well, but finding the last version
usually also necessitates locking the newest version, making it
sensible to combine the two. This replaces the previous use of
EvalPlanQualFetch(). Additionally HeapTupleUpdated, which previously
signaled either a concurrent update or delete, is now split into two,
to avoid callers needing AM specific knowledge to differentiate.
The move of finding the latest row version into tuple_lock means that
encountering a row concurrently moved into another partition will now
raise an error about "tuple to be locked" rather than "tuple to be
updated/deleted" - which is accurate, as that always happens when
locking rows. While possible slightly less helpful for users, it seems
like an acceptable trade-off.
As part of this commit HTSU_Result has been renamed to TM_Result, and
its members been expanded to differentiated between updating and
deleting. HeapUpdateFailureData has been renamed to TM_FailureData.
The interface to speculative insertion is changed so nodeModifyTable.c
does not have to set the speculative token itself anymore. Instead
there's a version of tuple_insert, tuple_insert_speculative, that
performs the speculative insertion (without requiring a flag to signal
that fact), and the speculative insertion is either made permanent
with table_complete_speculative(succeeded = true) or aborted with
succeeded = false).
Note that multi_insert is not yet routed through tableam, nor is
COPY. Changing multi_insert requires changes to copy.c that are large
enough to better be done separately.
Similarly, although simpler, CREATE TABLE AS and CREATE MATERIALIZED
VIEW are also only going to be adjusted in a later commit.

Previously we were using the SQL:2003 definition, which doesn't allow
this, but that creates a serious dump/restore gotcha: there is no
setting of xmloption that will allow all valid XML data. Hence,
switch to the 2006 definition.
Since libxml doesn't accept <!DOCTYPE> directives in the mode we
use for CONTENT parsing, the implementation is to detect <!DOCTYPE>
in the input and switch to DOCUMENT parsing mode. This should not
cost much, because <!DOCTYPE> should be close to the front of the
input if it's there at all. It's possible that this causes the
error messages for malformed input to be slightly different than
they were before, if said input includes <!DOCTYPE>; but that does
not seem like a big problem.
In passing, buy back a few cycles in parsing of large XML documents
by not doing strlen() of the whole input in parse_xml_decl().
Back-patch because dump/restore failures are not nice. This change
shouldn't break any cases that worked before, so it seems safe to
back-patch.

Suppress 3 lines of unstable DETAIL output from a DROP ROLE statement in
event_trigger.sql. This is further cleanup for commit dd299df8.
Note that the event_trigger test instability issue is very similar to
the recently suppressed foreign_data test instability issue. Both
issues involve DETAIL output for a DROP ROLE statement that needed to be
changed as part of dd299df8.
Per buildfarm member macaque.
Previously there was basically no coverage for UPDATEs encountering
deleted rows, and no coverage for DELETE having to perform EPQ. That's
problematic for an upcoming commit in which EPQ is tought to integrate
with tableams. Also, there was no test for UPDATE to encounter a row
UPDATEd into another partition.

This is almost a straight revert of commit fff518d, which itself was a
revert of 7d3bf73ac.
It turns out that commit 8aa9dd74, which sorted dependent objects before
deletion in DROP OWNED BY, was not sufficient to make all remaining
unstable DETAIL output stable. Unstable DETAIL output from DROP ROLE
was not affected, because that happens to use a different code path. It
doesn't seem worthwhile to fix the other code path at this time.

There were more large constants that needed UINT64CONST. And one variable
was declared as "int", when it needed to be uint64. These bugs were only
visible on 32-bit systems; clearly I should've tested on one, given that
this code does a lot of work with 64-bit integers.
Also, in the test "huge distances" test, the code created some values with
random distances between them, but the test logic didn't take into account
the possibility that the random distance was exactly 1. That never actually
happens with the seed we're using, but let's be tidy.
