The documentation said that you need to pick a suitable LC_COLLATE
setting in addition to setting the DETERMINISTIC flag. This would
have been correct if the libc provider supported nondeterministic
collations, but since it doesn't, you actually need to set the LOCALE
option.

94985c210 added code to detect when WindowFuncs were monotonic and
allowed additional quals to be "pushed down" into the subquery to be
used as WindowClause runConditions in order to short-circuit execution
in nodeWindowAgg.c.
The Node representation of runConditions wasn't well selected and
because we do qual pushdown before planning the subquery, the planning
of the subquery could perform subquery pull-up of nested subqueries.
For WindowFuncs with args, the arguments could be changed after pushing
the qual down to the subquery.
This was made more difficult by the fact that the code duplicated the
WindowFunc inside an OpExpr to include in the WindowClauses runCondition
field. This could result in duplication of subqueries and a pull-up of
such a subquery could result in another initplan parameter being issued
for the 2nd version of the subplan. This could result in errors such as:
ERROR: WindowFunc not found in subplan target lists
Here in the backbranches, we don't have the flexibility to improve the
Node representation to resolve this, so instead we just disable the
runCondition optimization for ntile() unless the argument is a Const,
(v16 only) and likewise for count(expr) (both v15 and v16). count(*) is
unaffected. All other window functions which support this optimization
all take zero arguments and therefore are unaffected.

Backpatch-through 15 (master will be fixed independently)
A parallel worker's buffer usage is accumulated to its pgBufferUsage
and then is accumulated into the leader's one at the end of the
parallel vacuum. However, since the leader process used to use
dedicated VacuumPage{Hit, Miss, Dirty} globals for the buffer usage
reporting, the worker's buffer usage was not included, leading to an
incorrect buffer usage report.
To fix the problem, this commit makes vacuum use pgBufferUsage
instruments for buffer usage reporting instead of VacuumPage{Hit,
Miss, Dirty} globals. These global variables are still used by ANALYZE
command and autoanalyze.
This also fixes the buffer usage report of vacuuming on temporary
tables, since the buffers dirtied by MarkLocalBufferDirty() were not
tracked by the VacuumPageDirty variable.
Parallel vacuum was introduced in 13, but the buffer usage reporting
for VACUUM command with the VERBOSE option was implemented in
15. So backpatch to 15.

We have long disallowed all forms of ALTER TABLE if the table is
already opened by some outer SQL command in the same session.
This has the same purpose as obtaining AccessExclusiveLock, but
since a session's own locks don't conflict the lock only blocks use
of the table by other sessions, not our own. Without this check,
the ALTER might confuse the outer SQL command since any previous
inspection of the table would potentially become invalid.
However, the RelisBecomingView code path in DefineQueryRewrite never
got that memo, and assumed that AccessExclusiveLock is sufficient
for performing something morally equivalent to a rather invasive
ALTER TABLE. Unsurprisingly, this can confuse an outer command
that is trying to do something with the table.
This was submitted as a security issue, but the security team
has been unable to identify any consequence worse than a null
pointer dereference (from trying to access rd_tableam methods
that the relation no longer has). Therefore, in accordance
with our usual policy, it's not security material and should
just be fixed as a routine bug.
Fix by disallowing the operation if the table is open locally,
exactly as ALTER TABLE does it.

ALTER COLUMN TYPE wasn't expecting to find any pg_proc objects

Also, adjust some of the existing comments to reflect that these

The code associated with EXEC SQL DEFINE was unreadable and full of
bugs, notably:
* It'd attempt to free a non-malloced string if the ecpg program
tries to redefine a macro that was defined on the command line.
* Possible memory stomp if user writes "-D=foo".
* Undef'ing or redefining a macro defined on the command line would
change the state visible to the next file, when multiple files are
specified on the command line. (While possibly that could have been
an intentional choice, the code clearly intends to revert to the
original macro state; it's just failing to consider this interaction.)
* Missing "break" in defining a new macro meant that redefinition
of an existing name would cause an extra entry to be added to the
definition list. While not immediately harmful, a subsequent undef
would result in the prior entry becoming visible again.
* The interactions with input buffering are subtle and were entirely
undocumented.
It's not that surprising that we hadn't noticed these bugs,
because there was no test coverage at all of either the -D
command line switch or multiple input files. This patch adds
such coverage (in a rather hacky way I guess).
In addition to the code bugs, the user documentation was confused
about whether the -D switch defines a C macro or an ecpg one, and
it failed to mention that you can write "-Dsymbol=value".

get_baserel_parampathinfo previously assumed without checking that
the results of generate_join_implied_equalities "necessarily satisfy
join_clause_is_movable_into". This turns out to be wrong in the
presence of outer joins, because the generated clauses could include
Vars that mustn't be evaluated below a relevant outer join. That
led to applying clauses at the wrong plan level and possibly getting
incorrect query results. We must check each clause's nullable_relids,
and really the right thing to do is test join_clause_is_movable_into.
However, trying to fix it that way exposes an oversight in
equivclass.c: it wasn't careful about marking join clauses for
appendrel children with the correct clause_relids. That caused the
modified get_baserel_parampathinfo code to reject some clauses it
still needs to accept. (See parallel commit for HEAD/v16 for more

Commit 2ed8f9a01 intended to institute a policy that if a
RangeTblFunction has a coldeflist, then the function return type is
certainly RECORD, and we should use the coldeflist as the source of
truth about what the columns of the record type are. When the
original function has been folded to a constant, inspection of the
constant might give a different answer. This situation will lead to
a tuple-type-mismatch error at execution, but up until that point we
need to consistently believe the coldeflist, or we'll have problems
from different bits of code reaching different conclusions.
expandRTE didn't get that memo though, and would try to produce a
tupdesc based on the constant in this situation, leading to an
assertion failure. (Desultory testing suggests that non-assert
builds often manage to give the expected error, although I also
saw a "cache lookup failed for type 0" error, and it seems at
least possible that a crash could happen.)
Some other callers of get_expr_result_type and get_expr_result_tupdesc
were also being incautious about this. While none of them seem to
have actual bugs, they're working harder than necessary in this case,
besides which it seems safest to have an explicit policy of not using
those functions on an RTE with a coldeflist. Adjust the code
accordingly, and add commentary to funcapi.c about this policy.
Also fix an obsolete comment that claimed "get_expr_result_type()
doesn't know how to extract type info from a RECORD constant".
That hasn't been true since commit d57534740.

GetPageWithFreeSpace() callers assume the returned block exists in the
main fork, failing with "could not read block" errors if that doesn't
hold. Make that assumption reliable now. It hadn't been guaranteed,
due to the weak WAL and data ordering of participating components. Most
operations on the fsm fork are not WAL-logged. Relation extension is
not WAL-logged. Hence, an fsm-fork block on disk can reference a
main-fork block that no WAL record has initialized. That could happen
after an OS crash, a replica promote, or a PITR restore. wal_log_hints
makes the trouble easier to hit; a replica promote or PITR ending just
after a relevant fsm-fork FPI_FOR_HINT may yield this broken state. The
v16 RelationAddBlocks() mechanism also makes the trouble easier to hit,
since it bulk-extends even without extension lock waiters. Commit
917dc7d239 stopped trouble around
truncation, but vectors involving PageIsNew() pages remained.
This implementation adds a RelationGetNumberOfBlocks() call when the
cached relation size doesn't confirm a block exists. We've been unable
to identify a benchmark that slows materially, but this may show up as
additional time in lseek(). An alternative without that overhead would
be a new ReadBufferMode such that ReadBufferExtended() returns NULL
after a 0-byte read, with all other errors handled normally. However,
each GetFreeIndexPage() caller would then need code for the return-NULL
case. Back-patch to v14, due to earlier versions not caching relation
size and the absence of a pre-v16 problem report.

Up to now, read_sql_construct() has collected all the source text from
the statement or expression's initial token up to the character just
before the "until" token. It normally tries to strip trailing
whitespace from that, largely for neatness. If there was a "-- text"
comment after the expression, this resulted in removing the newline
that terminates the comment, which creates a hazard if we try to paste
the collected text into a larger SQL construct without inserting a
newline after it. In particular this caused our handling of CASE
constructs to fail if there's a comment after a WHEN expression.
Commit 4adead1d2 noticed a similar problem with cursor arguments,
and worked around it through the rather crude hack of suppressing
the whitespace-trimming behavior for those. Rather than do that
and leave the hazard open for future hackers to trip over, let's
fix it properly. pl_scanner.c already has enough infrastructure
to report the end location of the expression's last token, so
we can copy up to that location and never collect any trailing
whitespace or comment to begin with.

ecpg wants to emit a warning if it parses a SQL construct that the
backend can parse but will immediately throw a FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED
error for. The way it was testing for this was to see if the string
ERRCODE_FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED appeared anywhere in the gram.y code.
This is, of course, not nearly good enough, as there are plenty of
rules in gram.y that throw that error only conditionally. There was
a hack dating to 2008 to suppress the warning in one rule that
doesn't even exist anymore, but nothing for other cases we've created
since then. End result was that you could get "unsupported feature
will be passed to server" warnings while compiling perfectly good SQL
code in ecpg. Somehow we'd not heard complaints about this, but
it was exposed by the recent addition of an ecpg test for a SQL/JSON
construct.
To fix, suppress the warning if the rule contains any "if" statement.

that the warning is now emitted only in rules where it's sensible.

If temp tables have dependencies (such as sequences) then it's
possible for autovacuum's cleanup of orphan temp tables to deadlock
against an incoming backend that's trying to clean out the temp
namespace for its own use. That can happen because RemoveTempRelations'
performDeletion call can visit objects within the namespace in
an order different from the order in which a per-table deletion
will visit them.
To fix, observe that performDeletion will begin by taking an exclusive
lock on the temp namespace (even though it won't actually delete it).
So, if we can get a shared lock on the namespace, we can be sure we're
not running concurrently with RemoveTempRelations, while also not
conflicting with ordinary use of the namespace. This requires
introducing a conditional version of LockDatabaseObject, but that's no
big deal. (It's surprising we've got along without that this long.)

Per report from Xing Guo. This has been there for quite awhile,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

When a plain aggregate is used as a window function, and the window
frame start is specified as UNBOUNDED PRECEDING, the frame's head
cannot move so we do not need to use moving-aggregate mode. The check
for that was put into initialize_peragg(), failing to notice that
ExecInitWindowAgg() calls that function before it's filled in
winstate->frameOptions. Since makeNode() would have zeroed the field,
this didn't provoke uninitialized-value complaints, nor would the
erroneous decision have resulted in more than a little inefficiency.
Still, it's wrong, so move the initialization of
winstate->frameOptions earlier to make it work properly.
While here, also fix a thinko in a comment. Both errors crept in in
commit a9d9acbf2 which introduced the moving-aggregate mode.
Spotted by Vallimaharajan G. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Ordinary ALTER TABLE SET SCHEMA will also move any owned sequences
into the new schema. We failed to do likewise for foreign tables,
because AlterTableNamespaceInternal believed that only certain
relkinds could have indexes, owned sequences, or constraints.
We could simply add foreign tables to that relkind list, but it
seems likely that the same oversight could be made again in
future. Instead let's remove the relkind filter altogether.
These functions shouldn't cost much when there are no objects
that they need to process, and surely this isn't an especially
performance-critical case anyway.
Per bug #18407 from Vidushi Gupta. Back-patch to all supported

The musl dynamic linker saves a pointer to the process' environment
value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH very early in startup. When we move/clobber
the environment to make more room for ps status strings, we clobber
that value and thereby prevent libraries from being found via
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which breaks the use of a temporary installation
for testing purposes. To fix, stop collecting usable space for
ps status if we notice that the variable we are about to clobber
is LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This will result in some reduction in how long
the ps status can be, but it's only likely to occur in temporary
test contexts, so it doesn't seem like a big problem. In any case,
we don't have to do it if we see we are on glibc, which surely is
where the majority of our Linux testing is done.
Thomas Munro, Bruce Momjian, and Tom Lane, per report from Wolfgang
Walther. Back-patch to all supported branches, with the hope that
we'll set up a buildfarm animal to test on this platform.

The CI base image used to have a python3 with headers etc installed in PATH,
but doesn't anymore. Instead of relying on a specific version in the base
image, explicitly install one ourselves.
On 16 and HEAD this lead to a build without python support, but on 15 CI
failed, due to explicitly enabled python3 support.
It might happen that the varlena value wasn't compressed by index_form_tuple()
due to current storage parameters. If compression is currently enabled, we
need to compress such values to match index tuple coming from the heap.
Backpatch to all supported versions.

In the heap, tuples may contain short varlena datum with both 1B header and 4B
headers. But the corresponding index tuple should always have such varlena's
with 1B headers. So, for fingerprinting, we need to convert.
