Commit 2f70fdb06 removed the deprecated containment operator
~(aclitem[],aclitem) from the catalogs, but missed removing its entry
from the documentation. (Arguably the blame should fall on c62dd80cd,

that we don't document deprecated aliases in the first place.)

indicator, so the pre- and post-upgrade dumps do not match. Make
AdjustUpgrade.pm delete just that row; seg's comparison function does

When printing the upper boundary of a seg interval, seg_out() decided
whether to emit the certainty indicator ('<', '>' or '~') by testing the
upper indicator (u_ext) for '<' and '>', but mistakenly tested the lower
indicator (l_ext) for '~'. This is a copy-and-paste slip from the
symmetric code that prints the lower boundary a few lines above.
The consequences for valid input were:
* A '~' on the upper boundary was dropped on output, e.g.
'1.5 .. ~2.5'::seg printed as '1.5 .. 2.5'.
* When the lower boundary carried '~' but the upper boundary had no
indicator, the wrong test matched and sprintf(p, "%c", seg->u_ext)
wrote a NUL byte (u_ext == '\0'), which truncated the result string
and silently lost the entire upper boundary, e.g.
'~6.5 .. 8.5'::seg printed as '~6.5 .. '.
Certainty indicators are documented to be preserved on output (they are
ignored by the operators, but kept as comments), so this broke the
input/output round-trip for the affected values.
The bug has existed since seg was added. It went unnoticed because the
existing regression tests only exercised certainty indicators on
single-point segs, which are printed by a different branch of seg_out().
Add tests that place indicators on both boundaries of an interval.

The operators for array_eq, record_eq, range_eq, and multirange_eq
are all marked oprcanhash, but there's a pitfall: their hash functions
can fail at runtime if the contained type(s) are not hashable.
Therefore, the planner has to check hashability of the contained types
before deciding it can use hashing in these cases. Not every place
had gotten this memo, and noplace at all had considered the issue
for ranges or multiranges. In particular we could attempt to use
hashing for a ScalarArrayOpExpr on a container type when it won't
actually work, leading to "could not identify a hash function ..."
runtime failures.
For the most part we should fix this in the lookup functions provided
by lsyscache.c, to wit get_op_hash_functions and op_hashjoinable.
But there's a problem: get_op_hash_functions is not passed the input
data type it would need to check. We mustn't change the API of that
exported function in a back-patched fix, and even if we wanted to,
its call sites in the executor mostly don't have easy access to the
required data type OID. Fortunately, the executor call sites don't
actually need fixing, because it's expected that the planner verified
hashability before building a plan that requires it. Therefore,
leave get_op_hash_functions as-is and invent a wrapper function
get_op_hash_functions_ext that does the additional checking needed
in the planner's uses.
We also need to fix hash_ok_operator (extending the fix in 647889667).
While at it, neaten up a couple of places in lookup_type_cache where
relevant code for multirange cases was written differently from the
code for other container types.
Note: while this touches pg_operator.dat, it's only to add oid_symbol
macros. So there's no on-disk data change and no need for a
catversion bump.

Presently, refint stores plans in a per-backend cache to avoid
re-preparing in each call. This has a few problems. For one,
check_foreign_key() embeds the new key values in its cascade-UPDATE
queries, so a cached plan reuses the values from preparation.
Also, the cache is never invalidated, so it can return stale
entries that cause other problems. There may very well be more
bugs lurking.
We could spend a lot of time trying to address all these problems,
but this module is primarily intended as sample code, and by all
indications, it sees minimal use. Furthermore, there is a growing
consensus for removing refint in v20. However, since we'll need to
support it on the back-branches for a while longer, it probably
still makes sense to fix some of the more egregious bugs.
Therefore, let's just remove refint's plan cache entirely. That
means we'll re-prepare on every call, but that seems quite unlikely
to bother anyone. On v17 and older versions, the regression test
for triggers fails after this change, so I've borrowed pieces of
commit 8cfbdf8f4d to fix it.

This commit addresses two related issues:
tsvector_filter() assumed it could print an incorrect weight value
with %c. This could result in an invalidly-encoded error message
if the database encoding is multibyte and the char value has its
high bit set. Weight values that are ASCII control characters
could render illegibly too. Fix by printing such values in octal
(\ooo), similarly to how charout() would render them.
tsvector_setweight() and tsvector_setweight_by_filter() reported
the same unrecognized-weight error condition with elog(), as though
it were an internal error. That'd not translate, would produce an
unwanted XX000 SQLSTATE code, and also reported the bad value as a
decimal integer which seems unhelpful. Fix by refactoring so that
all three functions share one copy of the code that interprets a
weight argument.
The invalid-encoding aspect seems to me (tgl) to justify
back-patching.

When releasing an ephemeral replication slot, ReplicationSlotRelease()
drops the slot via ReplicationSlotDropAcquired().
However, after dropping the slot, ReplicationSlotRelease() continued
to use its local "slot" pointer, which still referenced the dropped
slot's former shared-memory entry. It could then update fields such as
effective_xmin in that entry.
Once an ephemeral slot has been dropped (via ReplicationSlotDropAcquired()),
its slot array entry can be reused immediately by another backend
creating a new slot. As a result, those updates could corrupt
the state of an unrelated replication slot.
Fix by skipping those shared-memory updates for phemeral slots and
performing them only for non-ephemeral slots, whose shared-memory
entries remain valid after release.

Concurrent DDL can leave behind objects referencing other objects that
no longer exist. This can happen if an object is dropped, while a new
object that depends on it is created concurrently. For example:
session 1: BEGIN; CREATE FUNCTION myschema.myfunc() ...;
session 2: DROP SCHEMA myschema;
session 1: COMMIT;
DROP SCHEMA does check that there are no objects dependending on the
schema being dropped, but it does not see objects being concurrently
created by other sessions. Even if it did, this scenario would still
fail:
session 1: BEGIN: DROP SCHEMA myschema;
session 2: CREATE FUNCTION myschema.myfunc() ...;
session 1: COMMIT;
When the DROP SCHEMA runs, the schema was empty, but the new function
is created in it before the dropping transaction completes. The CREATE
FUNCTION does not see that the schema is concurrently being dropped.
In both of these scenarios, the function is left behind in the schema
that no longer exists.
To fix, acquire AccessShareLock on all referenced objects when
recording dependencies. This conflicts with the AccessExclusiveLock
taken by DROP, preventing the race. After acquiring the lock, verify
that the object still exists, and if it was dropped concurrently,
report an error. We already had such a mechanism for shared
dependencies, but for some reason we didn't do it for in-database
dependendies.
Ideally the locks would be acquired much earlier when creating a new
object, but that will require modifying a lot of callers. This check
while recording the dependency is a nice wholesale protection, and
even if we change all the CREATE commands to acquire locks earlier,
it's still good to have this as a backstop to catch any cases where we
forgot to do so.
The patch adds a few tests for some cases that left behind orphaned
objects before this. It also adds a test for roles, which already had
such protection, although that test is partially disabled because the
error message includes an OID which is not predictable.

When creating a relation with a dropped column, we called
recordDependencyOn() also on the datatype of the dropped column, which
is always InvalidOid. In versions 15 and above, that was harmless
because recordDependencyOn() considers InvalidOid as a pinned object,
and skips over it. On version 14, isPinnedObject() does not consider
InvalidOid as pinned, so we created a bogus pg_depend entry with
refobjectid == 0.
As far as I can tell, the only case when AddNewAttributeTuples() is
called with dropped columns is when performing a table-rewriting ALTER
TABLE command. That temporarily creates a new relation with the same
columns, including dropped ones, then swaps the relations, and drops
the newly created table again. So even on version 14, the bogus
pg_depend entry was only on the transient relation that was dropped at
the end of the ALTER TABLE command, which was harmless.
Even though this is harmless, let's be tidy, similar to commit
713bce9484. The reason I noticed this now and why I backported this,
is because the next commit will add code to acquire locks on the
referenced objects, and we don't want to acquire a lock on InvalidOid.

DisownLatch() was executed after the PGPROC entry of the process
terminated is pushed back into a freelist. A newly-forked backend that
recycles the slot could call OwnLatch() and PANIC with a "latch already
owned by PID", taking down the server.
There were two scenarios related to lock groups where this issue could
be reached:
* A follower pushes the leader's PGPROC back to the freelist while the
leader has not yet called DisownLatch() in its own ProcKill().
* A leader outliving all its followers pushes its own PGPROC onto the
freelist before reaching DisownLatch(), which would be the most common
scenario.
This issue is fixed by calling SwitchBackToLocalLatch() and
DisownLatch() at an earlier phase of ProcKill(), before any freelist
manipulation happens, so that the slot of the backend terminated is
never exposed as owning a latch.
Note that pgstat_reset_wait_event_storage() is kept at a later stage.
An upcoming commit will take advantage of that by introducing a test
able to check the original PANIC scenario.

This commit fixes two bugs in ProcKill()'s lock-group teardown freelist
publication:
* a double push of the leader's PGPROC that corrupts the freelist.
* a leak of the last follower's PGPROC slot.
ProcKill()'s lock-group teardown had two PGPROC freelist updates
scattered through the function, done under two separate freeProcsLock
acquisitions:
* A follower's push of the leader's PGPROC, done when a follower is the
last group member exiting.
* Every backend's self-push at the bottom of the function.
The two freelist updates were coordinated only by inspecting
proc->lockGroupLeader, which a follower could clear as a side effect of
pushing the leader. This coordination was broken. For example, with
two concurrent backends:
* The follower clears leader->lockGroupLeader and pushes the leader's
PGPROC under leader_lwlock.
* The follower does not clear its own proc->lockGroupLeader, being
skipped.
* When the leader reaches the bottom of ProcKill(), it sees a NULL
proc->lockGroupLeader (the follower cleared it) and pushes itself,
causing a second dlist_push_tail() of the same node onto the same
freelist.
* The follower at the bottom sees its own proc->lockGroupLeader being
not NULL (never cleared) and skips its own push, causing its own slot
to leak.
This commit refactors the freelist manipulation to be done in two
distinct phases, each step using its own lock acquisition to ensure that
each freelist operation happens in an isolated manner for each backend
(follower or leader):
- First, under a single leader_lwlock acquisition, check the state of
the lock-group. Depending on if we are dealing with a follower and/or a
leader, and if the leader has exited before a follower, then set some
state booleans that define which actions should be taken with the
freelist.
- Second, under a single freeProcsLock acquisition, perform the cleanup
actions, self-push of a backend and/or push of the leader back to the
freelist.
This is an old issue, dating back to 9.6 where parallel workers and lock
grouping has been added.

The check for the minimum expected bytea size of a MVDependencies object
was using SizeOfItem() for its calculation. This macro uses the number
of attributes in a single dependency.
This minimum size calculation should be based on MinSizeOfItems(), that
computes the minimum expected size as the header plus the
minimally-sized number of dependency items.

When reusing an existing WAL receiver after it has reached
WALRCV_WAITING for new instructions, RequestXLogStreaming() copied
PrimaryConnInfo into WalRcv->conninfo before switching the state to
WALRCV_RESTARTING. At that point ready_to_display could still be true,
so pg_stat_wal_receiver could expose the raw connection string,
including sensitive fields, but it should only show the user-displayable
version of the connection string.
WALRCV_RESTARTING does not establish a new connection. The waiting WAL
receiver reuses its existing connection and only needs a new startpoint
and timeline, so there is no need to copy the raw connection string into
shared memory again. Let's only copy conninfo when launching a new WAL
receiver after WALRCV_STOPPED, not while waiting for instructions.
This commit adds coverage for the case fixed by this commit to the
timeline-switch test by verifying that the WAL receiver conninfo remains
consistent across the jump.
Backpatch all the way down, as this issue is possible since
pg_stat_wal_receiver has been introduced.

Commit c37b3d08ca attempted to preserve group permissions on pg_recvlogical
output files when group access was enabled on the source cluster. However,
the output files were still created with a fixed S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR mode,
preventing group-read permissions from being applied.
This commit fixes the issue by creating output files with pg_file_create_mode
instead of a hard-coded mode. This allows pg_recvlogical to correctly preserve
group permissions from the source cluster.
Backpatch to all supported branches.

Three locations use Assert() to guard against a mismatch between the
number of columns advertised in the RELATION message and the number
actually received in the subsequent INSERT/UPDATE tuple message. Since
these values originate from the publisher, the check must survive into
production builds.
A malicious or buggy publisher can send a RELATION claiming N columns
and an INSERT claiming M < N columns. The subscriber's apply worker
indexes into colvalues[]/colstatus[] using column indices from the
RELATION message's attribute map, causing a heap out-of-bounds read when
the tuple's column array is smaller than expected. We've looked, without
success, for a scenario in which the publisher holds sufficient control
over these out-of-bounds bytes to exploit this or even to reach a
SIGSEGV. Despite not finding one, the code has been fragile. Back-patch
to v14 (all supported versions).

These tests have been removed by 906ea101d0, due to some of them being
unstable in the buildfarm with low max_stack_depth values. They are now
reworked so as they should be more portable.
The tests to cover the findoprnd() overflows use a balanced tree to
avoid using too much stack, per a suggestion and an investigation by Tom
Lane.
Note: This is initially applied only on HEAD; a backpatch will follow
should the buildfarm be fine with the situation.

When an UPDATE statement triggers check_foreign_key() with the
action set to "cascade", it generates more UPDATE statements to
modify the key values in referencing relations. If a new key value
is NULL, SPI_getvalue() returns a NULL pointer, which is
subsequently passed to quote_literal_cstr(), causing a segfault.
To fix, skip quoting when a new key value is NULL and insert an
unquoted NULL keyword instead.
Oversight in commit 260e97733b. While the refint documentation
recommends marking primary key columns NOT NULL, the aforementioned
scenario accidentally worked on platforms where snprintf()
substitutes "(null)" for NULL pointers. Note that for
character-type columns, the old code quoted "(null)" as a string
literal, so this didn't always produce correct results. But it
still seems better to fix this than to reject cases that previously
worked.

Previously, pg_stat_progress_copy in the subscriber could continue to show
the initial COPY operation for logical replication table synchronization as
active even after the data copy had finished. The stale progress entry
remained visible until synchronization caught up with the publisher.
This happened because the table synchronization code called BeginCopyFrom()
and CopyFrom(), but failed to call EndCopyFrom() afterward.
This commit fixes the issue by adding the missing EndCopyFrom() call so that
the COPY progress state in the subscriber is cleared as soon as the initial
data copy completes.
Backpatch to all supported branches.

These checks are failing in the buildfarm, reporting stack overflows
rather than the expected errors, though seemingly only on ppc64 and
s390x platforms. Perhaps there is something off about our tests
for stack depth on those architectures? But there's no time to
debug that right now, and surely these tests aren't too essential.
Revert for now and plan to revisit after the release dust settles.

Maliciously crafted key value updates could achieve SQL injection
within check_foreign_key(). To fix, ensure new key values are
properly quoted and escaped in the internally generated SQL
statements. While at it, avoid potential buffer overruns by
replacing the stack buffers for internally generated SQL statements
with StringInfo.

When result_is_int is set to 0, PQfn() cannot validate that the
result fits in result_buf, so it will write data beyond the end of
the buffer when the server returns more data than requested. Since
this function is insecurable and obsolete, add a warning to the top
of the pertinent documentation advising against its use.
The only in-tree caller of PQfn() is the frontend large object
interface. To fix that, add a buf_size parameter to
pqFunctionCall3() that is used to protect against overruns, and use
it in a private version of PQfn() that also accepts a buf_size
parameter.

If you accumulate many arrays full of NULLs, you could overflow
'nitems', before reaching the MaxAllocSize limit on the allocations.
Add an explicit check that the number of items doesn't grow too large.
With more than MaxArraySize items, getting the final result with
makeArrayResultArr() would fail anyway, so better to error out early.

pg_locale_icu.c was full of places where a very long input string
could cause integer overflow while calculating a buffer size,
leading to buffer overruns.
It also was cavalier about using char-type local arrays as buffers
holding arrays of UChar. The alignment of a char[] variable isn't
guaranteed, so that this risked failure on alignment-picky platforms.
The lack of complaints suggests that such platforms are very rare
nowadays; but it's likely that we are paying a performance price on
rather more platforms. Declare those arrays as UChar[] instead,
keeping their physical size the same.
pg_locale_libc.c's strncoll_libc_win32_utf8() also had the
disease of assuming it could double or quadruple the input
string length without concern for overflow.

pg_rewind and pg_basebackup could be fed paths from rogue endpoints that
could overwrite the contents of the client when received, achieving path
traversal.
There were two areas in the tree that were sensitive to this problem:
- pg_basebackup, through the astreamer code, where no validation was
performed before building an output path when streaming tar data. This
is an issue in v15 and newer versions.
- pg_rewind file operations for paths received through libpq, for all
the stable branches supported.
In order to address this problem, this commit adds a helper function in
path.c, that reuses path_is_relative_and_below_cwd() after applying
canonicalize_path(). This can be used to validate the paths received
from a connection point. A path is considered invalid if any of the two
following conditions is satisfied:
- The path is absolute.
- The path includes a direct parent-directory reference.

A few functions in this file were incautious about multiplying a
possibly large integer by a factor more than 1 and then using it as
an allocation size. This is harmless on 64-bit systems where we'd
compute a size exceeding MaxAllocSize and then fail, but on 32-bit
systems we could overflow size_t, leading to an undersized
allocation and buffer overrun. To fix, use palloc_array() or
mul_size() instead of handwritten multiplication.
