Previously, when running pgbench in pipeline mode with a custom script
that triggered retriable errors (e.g., serialization errors),
an assertion failure could occur:
Assertion failed: (res == ((void*)0)), function discardUntilSync, file pgbench.c, line 3515.
The root cause was that pgbench incorrectly assumed only a single
pipeline sync message would be received at the end. In reality,
multiple pipeline sync messages can be sent and must be handled properly.
This commit fixes the issue by updating pgbench to correctly process
multiple pipeline sync messages, preventing the assertion failure.
Back-patch to v15, where the bug was introduced.

Commit c407d5426b added tab completion for ALTER ROLE|USER ... RESET,
with the intent to offer only the variables actually set on the role.
But as soon as the user started typing something, it would start to
offer all possible matching variables.
Fix this the same way ALTER DATABASE ... RESET does it, i.e. by
properly considering the prefix.
A second issue causing similar symptoms (offering variables that are not
actually set for a role) was caused by a match to another pattern. The
ALTER DATABASE ... RESET was already excluded, so do the same thing for
ROLE/USER.

pg_dump sorts objects by their logical names, e.g. (nspname, relname,
tgname), before dependency-driven reordering. That removes one source
of logically-identical databases differing in their schema-only dumps.
In other words, it helps with schema diffing. The logical name sort
ignored essential sort keys for constraints, operators, PUBLICATION
... FOR TABLE, PUBLICATION ... FOR TABLES IN SCHEMA, operator classes,
and operator families. pg_dump's sort then depended on object OID,
yielding spurious schema diffs. After this change, OIDs affect dump
order only in the event of catalog corruption. While pg_dump also
wrongly ignored pg_collation.collencoding, CREATE COLLATION restrictions
have been keeping that imperceptible in practical use.
Use techniques like we use for object types already having full sort key
coverage. Where the pertinent queries weren't fetching the ignored sort
keys, this adds columns to those queries and stores those keys in memory
for the long term.
The ignorance of sort keys became more problematic when commit
172259afb5 added a schema diff test
sensitive to it. Buildfarm member hippopotamus witnessed that.
However, dump order stability isn't a new goal, and this might avoid
other dump comparison failures. Hence, back-patch to v13 (all supported

For many optional libraries, we extract the -L and -l switches needed
to link the library from a helper program such as llvm-config. In
some cases we put the resulting -L switches into LDFLAGS ahead of
-L switches specified via --with-libraries. That risks breaking
the user's intention for --with-libraries.
It's not such a problem if the library's -L switch points to a
directory containing only that library, but on some platforms a
library helper may "helpfully" offer a switch such as -L/usr/lib
that points to a directory holding all standard libraries. If the
user specified --with-libraries in hopes of overriding the standard
build of some library, the -L/usr/lib switch prevents that from
happening since it will come before the user-specified directory.
To fix, avoid inserting these switches directly into LDFLAGS during
configure, instead adding them to LIBDIRS or SHLIB_LINK. They will
still eventually get added to LDFLAGS, but only after the switches
coming from --with-libraries.
The same problem exists for -I switches: those coming from
--with-includes should appear before any coming from helper programs
such as llvm-config. We have not heard field complaints about this
case, but it seems certain that a user attempting to override a
standard library could have issues.
The changes for this go well beyond configure itself, however,
because many Makefiles have occasion to manipulate CPPFLAGS to
insert locally-desirable -I switches, and some of them got it wrong.
The correct ordering is any -I switches pointing at within-the-
source-tree-or-build-tree directories, then those from the tree-wide
CPPFLAGS, then those from helper programs. There were several places
that risked pulling in a system-supplied copy of libpq headers, for
example, instead of the in-tree files. (Commit cb36f8ec2 fixed one
instance of that a few months ago, but this exercise found more.)
The Meson build scripts may or may not have any comparable problems,
but I'll leave it to someone else to investigate that.

Previously, the tool could replay the same transaction twice, once during
recovery, then again during replication after the subscriber was set up.
This occurred because the same recovery_target_lsn was used both to
finalize recovery and to start replication. If
recovery_target_inclusive = true, the transaction at that LSN would be
applied during recovery and then sent again by the publisher leading to
duplication.
To prevent this, we now set recovery_target_inclusive = false. This
ensures the transaction at recovery_target_lsn is not reapplied during
recovery, avoiding duplication when replication begins.

When decompressing some input data, the calculation for the initial
starting point and the initial size were incorrect, potentially leading
to failures when decompressing contents with LZ4. These initialization
points are fixed in this commit, bringing the logic closer to what
exists for gzip and zstd.
The contents of the compressed data is clear (for example backups taken
with LZ4 can still be decompressed with a "lz4" command), only the
decompression part reading the input data was impacted by this issue.
This code path impacts pg_basebackup and pg_verifybackup, which can use
the LZ4 decompression routines with an archive streamer, or any tools
that try to use the archive streamers in src/fe_utils/.
The issue is easier to reproduce with files that have a low-compression
rate, like ones filled with random data, for a size of at least 512kB,
but this could happen with anything as long as it is stored in a data
folder. Some tests are added based on this idea, with a file filled
with random bytes grabbed from the backend, written at the root of the
data folder. This is proving good enough to reproduce the original
problem.

Running COPY within a pipeline can break protocol synchronization in
multiple ways. psql is limited in terms of result processing if mixing
COPY commands with normal queries while controlling a pipeline with the
new meta-commands, as an effect of the following reasons:
- In COPY mode, the backend ignores additional Sync messages and will
not send a matching ReadyForQuery expected by the frontend. Doing a
\syncpipeline just after COPY will leave the frontend waiting for a
ReadyForQuery message that won't be sent, leaving psql out-of-sync.
- libpq automatically sends a Sync with the Copy message which is not
tracked in the command queue, creating an unexpected synchronisation
point that psql cannot really know about. While it is possible to track
such activity for a \copy, this cannot really be done sanely with plain
COPY queries. Backend failures during a COPY would leave the pipeline
in an aborted state while the backend would be in a clean state, ready
to process commands.
At the end, fixing those issues would require modifications in how libpq
handles pipeline and COPY. So, rather than implementing workarounds in
psql to shortcut the libpq internals (with command queue handling for
one), and because meta-commands for pipelines in psql are a new feature
with COPY in a pipeline having a limited impact compared to other
queries, this commit forbids the use of COPY within a pipeline to avoid
possible break of protocol synchronisation within psql. If there is a
use-case for COPY support within pipelines in libpq, this could always
be added in the future, if necessary.
Most of the changes of this commit impacts the tests for psql pipelines,
removing the tests related to COPY. Some TAP tests still exist for COPY
TO/FROM and \copy to/from, to check that that connections are aborted
when this operation is attempted.

When the backend reads COPY data, it ignores all sync messages, as per
c01641f8ae. With psql pipelines, it is possible to manually send sync
messages with \sendpipeline which leaves the frontend in an
unrecoverable state as the backend will not send the necessary
ReadyForQuery message that is expected to feed psql result consumption
logic.
It could be possible to artificially reduce the piped_syncs and
requested_results, however libpq's state would still have queued sync
messages in its command queue, and the only way to consume those without
directly calling pqCommandQueueAdvance() is to process ReadyForQuery
messages that won't be sent since the backend ignores these. Perhaps
this could be improved in the future, but I am not really excited about
introducing this amount of complications in libpq to manipulate the
message queues without a better use case to support it.
Hence, this patch aborts the connection if we detect excessive sync
messages after a COPY in a pipeline to avoid staying in an inconsistent
protocol state, which is the best thing we can do with pipelines in
psql for now. Note that this change does not prevent wrapping a set
of queries inside a block made of \startpipeline and \endpipeline, only
the use of \syncpipeline for a COPY.

POSIX allows such platforms. Given the lack of complaints, we may not
currently test on such a platform. This is new in v18 (commit
7d5c83b4e9), so no back-patch.
Set the default behavior of pg_dump and pg_dumpall to be
--no-statistics.
Leave the default for pg_restore and pg_upgrade to be
--with-statistics.

Before v14, a reltuples value of 0 was ambiguous: it could either
mean the relation is empty, or it could mean that it hadn't yet
been vacuumed or analyzed. (Commit 3d351d916b taught v14 and newer
to use -1 for the latter case.) This ambiguity allegedly can cause
the planner to choose inefficient plans after restoring to v18 or
newer. To fix, let's just dump reltuples as -1 in that case. This
will cause some truly empty tables to be seen as not-yet-processed,
but that seems unlikely to cause too much trouble in practice.
Note that we could alternatively teach pg_restore_relation_stats()
to translate reltuples based on the version argument, but since
that function doesn't exist until v18, there's no particular
advantage to that approach. That is, there's no chance of
restoring stats dumped from a pre-v14 server to another pre-v14
server. Per discussion, the current policy is to fix pre-v18
behavior differences during export and everything else during
import.
Commit 9879105024 fixed a similar problem for vacuumdb by removing
the check for reltuples != 0. Presumably we could reinstate that
check now, but I've chosen to leave it in place in case reltuples
isn't accurate. As before, processing some empty tables seems
relatively harmless.

Presently, fetchAttributeStats() builds array literals by treating
the elements as SQL identifiers. This is incorrect for a couple of
reasons:
* Array literal content must match the external text representation
of the array, i.e., what array_out() would return. One notable
problem is that double quotes are escaped with "" in identifiers
but with \" in array literals. To fix, build the array content
using the pre-existing appendPGArray() function.
* Array literals must be written as string constants. A notable
problem here is that single quotes are escaped via '' in strings
but are not escaped in the text representation of an array. To
fix, append the aforementioned array literal content to the query
with appendStringLiteralAH().
While at it, modify a test case to use an identifier that would
cause the test to fail without this change.

I recently added this option to pg_dump, but I forgot to add it to
pg_dumpall, too. There's probably little use for it at the moment,
but we will need it if/when we teach pg_upgrade to use pg_dumpall
to dump the database schemas.

Presently, --missing-stats-only skips relations with reltuples set
to 0 because empty relations don't get optimizer statistics.
However, before v14, a reltuples value of 0 was ambiguous: it could
either mean the relation is empty, or it could mean that it hadn't
yet been vacuumed or analyzed. (Commit 3d351d916b taught v14 and
newer to use -1 for the latter case.) This ambiguity can cause
--missing-stats-only to inadvertently skip relations that need
optimizer statistics after upgrades to v18 and newer (since
reltuples is now transferred from the old cluster).
To fix, simply remove the check for reltuples != 0. This will
cause --missing-stats-only to analyze some empty tables, but that
doesn't seem too terrible a trade-off.

Since pg_upgrade does not transfer the cumulative statistics used
to trigger autovacuum and autoanalyze, the server may take much
longer than expected to process them post-upgrade. Currently, we
recommend analyzing only relations for which optimizer statistics
were not transferred by using the --analyze-in-stages and
--missing-stats-only options. This commit appends another
recommendation to analyze all relations to update the relevant
cumulative statistics by using the --analyze-only option. This is
similar to the recommendation for pg_stat_reset().
