The new numeric code for extract epoch from interval accidentally
truncated the DAYS_PER_YEAR value to an integer, leading to results
that mismatched the floating-point interval_part calculations.
The commit a2da77cdb4 that introduced
this actually contains the regression test change that this reverts.

Checking the execution of archive_cleanup_command on a standby requires
a valid checkpoint coming from its primary, but the logic did not check
that the standby replayed up to the point of the checkpoint, causing the

This test, introduced in df86e52, uses a second standby to check that
it is able to remove correctly RECOVERYHISTORY and RECOVERYXLOG at the
end of recovery. This standby uses the archives of the primary to
restore its contents, with some of the archive's contents coming from
the first standby previously promoted. In slow environments, it was
possible that the test did not check what it should, as the history file
generated by the promotion of the first standby may not be stored yet on
the archives the second standby feeds on. So, it could be possible that
the second standby selects an incorrect timeline, without restoring a
history file at all.
This commits adds a wait phase to make sure that the history file
required by the second standby is archived before this cluster is
created. This relies on poll_query_until() with pg_stat_file() and an
absolute path, something not supported in REL_10_STABLE.
While on it, this adds a new test to check that the history file has
been restored by looking at the logs of the second standby. This
ensures that a RECOVERYHISTORY, whose removal needs to be checked,
is created in the first place. This should make the test more robust.
This test has been introduced by df86e52, but it came in light as an
effect of the bug fixed by acf1dd42, where the extra restore_command
calls made the test much slower.

We were setting MERGE source subplan's targetlist by expanding the
individual attributes of the source relation completely, early in the
parse analysis phase. This failed to work when the condition of an
action included a whole-row reference, causing setrefs.c to error out
with
ERROR: variable not found in subplan target lists
because at that point there is nothing to resolve the whole-row
reference with. We can fix this by having preprocess_targetlist expand
the source targetlist for Vars required from the source rel by all
actions. Moreover, by using this expansion mechanism we can do away
with the targetlist expansion in transformMergeStmt, which is good
because then we no longer pull in columns that aren't needed for
anything.
Add a test case for the problem.
While at it, remove some redundant code in preprocess_targetlist():
MERGE was doing separately what is already being done for UPDATE/DELETE,
so we can just rely on the latter and remove the former. (The handling
of inherited rels was different for MERGE, but that was a no-longer-
necessary hack.)

adds on top of that the I/O timing for temporary buffers in the output

Window functions such as row_number() always return a value higher than
the previously returned value for tuples in any given window partition.
Traditionally queries such as;
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT *, row_number() over (order by c) rn
FROM t
) t WHERE rn <= 10;
were executed fairly inefficiently. Neither the query planner nor the
executor knew that once rn made it to 11 that nothing further would match
the outer query's WHERE clause. It would blindly continue until all
tuples were exhausted from the subquery.
Here we implement means to make the above execute more efficiently.
This is done by way of adding a pg_proc.prosupport function to various of
the built-in window functions and adding supporting code to allow the
support function to inform the planner if the window function is
monotonically increasing, monotonically decreasing, both or neither. The
planner is then able to make use of that information and possibly allow
the executor to short-circuit execution by way of adding a "run condition"
to the WindowAgg to allow it to determine if some of its execution work
can be skipped.
This "run condition" is not like a normal filter. These run conditions
are only built using quals comparing values to monotonic window functions.
For monotonic increasing functions, quals making use of the btree
operators for <, <= and = can be used (assuming the window function column
is on the left). You can see here that once such a condition becomes false
that a monotonic increasing function could never make it subsequently true
again. For monotonically decreasing functions the >, >= and = btree
operators for the given type can be used for run conditions.
The best-case situation for this is when there is a single WindowAgg node
without a PARTITION BY clause. Here when the run condition becomes false
the WindowAgg node can simply return NULL. No more tuples will ever match
the run condition. It's a little more complex when there is a PARTITION
BY clause. In this case, we cannot return NULL as we must still process
other partitions. To speed this case up we pull tuples from the outer
plan to check if they're from the same partition and simply discard them
if they are. When we find a tuple belonging to another partition we start
processing as normal again until the run condition becomes false or we run
out of tuples to process.
When there are multiple WindowAgg nodes to evaluate then this complicates
the situation. For intermediate WindowAggs we must ensure we always
return all tuples to the calling node. Any filtering done could lead to
incorrect results in WindowAgg nodes above. For all intermediate nodes,
we can still save some work when the run condition becomes false. We've
no need to evaluate the WindowFuncs anymore. Other WindowAgg nodes cannot
reference the value of these and these tuples will not appear in the final
result anyway. The savings here are small in comparison to what can be
saved in the top-level WingowAgg, but still worthwhile.
Intermediate WindowAgg nodes never filter out tuples, but here we change
WindowAgg so that the top-level WindowAgg filters out tuples that don't
match the intermediate WindowAgg node's run condition. Such filters
appear in the "Filter" clause in EXPLAIN for the top-level WindowAgg node.
Here we add prosupport functions to allow the above to work for;
row_number(), rank(), dense_rank(), count(*) and count(expr). It appears
technically possible to do the same for min() and max(), however, it seems
unlikely to be useful enough, so that's not done here.

Plain \dconfig is basically equivalent to SHOW except that you can
give it a pattern with wildcards, either to match multiple GUCs or
because you don't exactly remember the name you want.
\dconfig+ adds type, context, and access-privilege information,
mainly because every other kind of object privilege has a psql command
to show it, so GUC privileges should too. (A form of this command was
in some versions of the patch series leading up to commit a0ffa885e.
We pulled it out then because of doubts that the design and code were
up to snuff, but I think subsequent work has resolved that.)
In passing, fix incorrect completion of GUC names in GRANT/REVOKE

Modify the subroutines called by RI trigger functions that want to check
if a given referenced value exists in the referenced relation to simply
scan the foreign key constraint's unique index, instead of using SPI to
execute
SELECT 1 FROM referenced_relation WHERE ref_key = $1
This saves a lot of work, especially when inserting into or updating a
referencing relation.
This rewrite allows to fix a PK row visibility bug caused by a partition
descriptor hack which requires ActiveSnapshot to be set to come up with
the correct set of partitions for the RI query running under REPEATABLE
READ isolation. We now set that snapshot indepedently of the snapshot
to be used by the PK index scan, so the two no longer interfere. The

that system call, "try" is provided so that it can be enabled where
available. Better mechanisms for asynchronous I/O are possible in later
work.
Set to "try" for now for test coverage. Default setting to be finalized

The GUC wal_decode_buffer_size limits the distance we can look ahead in
bytes of decoded data.
The existing GUC maintenance_io_concurrency is used to limit the number
of concurrent I/Os allowed, based on pessimistic heuristics used to
infer that I/Os have begun and completed. We'll also not look more than

Previously the statistics collector received statistics updates via UDP and
shared statistics data by writing them out to temporary files regularly. These
files can reach tens of megabytes and are written out up to twice a
second. This has repeatedly prevented us from adding additional useful
statistics.
Now statistics are stored in shared memory. Statistics for variable-numbered
objects are stored in a dshash hashtable (backed by dynamic shared
memory). Fixed-numbered stats are stored in plain shared memory.
The header for pgstat.c contains an overview of the architecture.
The stats collector is not needed anymore, remove it.
By utilizing the transactional statistics drop infrastructure introduced in a
prior commit statistics entries cannot "leak" anymore. Previously leaked
statistics were dropped by pgstat_vacuum_stat(), called from [auto-]vacuum. On
systems with many small relations pgstat_vacuum_stat() could be quite
expensive.
Now that replicas drop statistics entries for dropped objects, it is not
necessary anymore to reset stats when starting from a cleanly shut down
replica.
Subsequent commits will perform some further code cleanup, adapt docs and add
tests.

generally because non-exclusive provides a much better interface.
Further, exclusive backup mode wasn't really being tested (nor was most
of the related code- like being able to log in just to stop an exclusive
backup and the bits of the state machine related to that) and having to
possibly deal with an exclusive backup and the backup_label file

Such privileges are cluster-wide, not per database. They are tracked

Granting and revoking these new privileges works as one would expect.
One caveat is that PGC_USERSET GUCs are unaffected by the SET privilege

save time by halving it, and also by making the table unlogged.
Experimentation shows that this size is only a little above the number
required to generate the expected output.

It's possible for the query that "waits for restart" to complete a
successful iteration before the postmaster has noticed its SIGKILL'd
child and begun the restart cycle. (This is a bit hard to believe
perhaps, but it's been seen at least twice in the buildfarm, mainly
on ancient platforms that likely have quirky schedulers.)
To provide a more secure interlock, wait for the other session
we're using to report that it's been forcibly shut down.
Patch by me, based on a suggestion from Andres Freund.
Back-patch to v14 where this test case came in.

These clauses allow the user to specify how data from nested paths are
joined, allowing considerable freedom in shaping the tabular output of
JSON_TABLE.
PLAN DEFAULT allows the user to specify the global strategies when
dealing with sibling or child nested paths. The is often sufficient to
achieve the necessary goal, and is considerably simpler than the full
PLAN clause, which allows the user to specify the strategy to be used
for each named nested path.

The expected backend message after SIGQUIT changed in commit
7e784d1dc, but we missed updating this test case. Also, experience
shows that we might sometimes get "could not send data to server"
instead of either of the libpq messages the test is looking for.
Per report from Mark Dilger. Back-patch to v14 where the
backend message changed.

This feature allows jsonb data to be treated as a table and thus used in
a FROM clause like other tabular data. Data can be selected from the
jsonb using jsonpath expressions, and hoisted out of nested structures
in the jsonb to form multiple rows, more or less like an outer join.

Previously, psql printed only the last result if a command string
returned multiple result sets. Now it prints all of them. The
previous behavior can be obtained by setting the psql variable
SHOW_ALL_RESULTS to off.
This is a significantly enhanced version of
3a51306722 (that was later reverted).
There is also much more test coverage for various psql features now.
