We have an implementation restriction that PREPARE TRANSACTION can't
handle cases where both session-lifespan and transaction-lifespan locks
are held on the same lockable object. (That's because we'd otherwise
need to acquire a new PROCLOCK entry during post-prepare cleanup, which
is an operation that might fail. The situation can only arise with odd
usages of advisory locks, so removing the restriction is probably not
worth the amount of effort it would take.) AtPrepare_Locks attempted
to enforce this, but its logic was many bricks shy of a load, because
it only detected cases where the session and transaction locks had the
same lockmode. Locks of different modes on the same object would lead
to the rather unhelpful message "PANIC: we seem to have dropped a bit
somewhere".
To fix, build a transient hashtable with one entry per locktag,
not one per locktag + mode, and use that to detect conflicts.

We previously took a hard-line attitude that callers should never print
a null string pointer, and doing so is worthy of an assertion failure
or crash. However, we've long since flushed out any easy-to-find bugs
of that nature. What remains is a lot of code that perhaps could fail
that way in hard-to-reach corner cases. For example, in something as
simple as
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_UNDEFINED_OBJECT),
errmsg("constraint \"%s\" for table \"%s\" does not exist",
conname, get_rel_name(relid))));
one must wonder whether it's completely guaranteed that get_rel_name
cannot return NULL in this context. If such a situation did occur,
the existing policy converts what might be a pretty minor bug into
a server crash condition. This is not good for robustness.
Hence, let's follow the lead of glibc and print "(null)" instead
of failing. We should, of course, still consider it a bug if that
behavior is reachable in ordinary use; but crashing seems less
desirable than not crashing.
This fix works across-the-board in v12 and up, where we always use
src/port/snprintf.c. Before that, on most platforms we're at the mercy
of the local libc, but it appears that Solaris 10 is the only supported
platform where we'd still get a crash. Most other platforms such as
*BSD, macOS, and Solaris 11 have adopted glibc's behavior at some
point. (AIX and HPUX just print "" not "(null)", but that's close
enough.) I've not checked what Windows' native printf would do, but
it doesn't matter because we've long used snprintf.c on that platform.
In v12 and up, also const-ify related code so that we're not casting
away const on the constant string. This is just neatnik-ism, since
next to no compilers will warn about that.

Recently-added references to ParseState weren't covered by #include

Oversight in commit 2bfb50b3d. Per headerscheck/cpluspluscheck.
This fixes two compilation failures caused by 6f164e6. Interesting to

Per various buildfarm members.
Most of the integer options for command-line binaries now make use of a
single routine able to do the job, fixing issues with the detection of
sloppy values caused for example by the use of atoi(), that fails on
strings beginning with numerical characters with junk trailing
characters.
This commit cuts down the number of strings requiring translation by 26
per my count, switching the code to have two error types for invalid and
out-of-range values instead.
Much more could be done here, with float or even int64 options, but
int32 was the most appealing case as it is possible to rely on strtol()
to do the job reliably. Note that there are some exceptions for now,
like pg_ctl or pg_upgrade that use their own logging logic. A couple of
negative TAP tests required some adjustments for the new errors
generated.
pg_dump and pg_restore tracked the maximum number of parallel jobs
within the option parsing. The code is refactored a bit to track that
in the code dedicated to parallelism instead.

If an error was raised during our initial attempt to check whether
a successfully-compiled expression is "simple", subsequent calls of
exec_stmt_execsql would suppose that stmt->mod_stmt was already computed
when it had not been. This could lead to assertion failures in debug
builds; in production builds the effect would typically be to act as
if INTO STRICT had been specified even when it had not been. Of course
that only matters if the subsequent attempt to execute the expression
succeeds, so that the problem can only be reached by fixing a failure
in some referenced, inline-able SQL function and then retrying the
calling plpgsql function in the same session.
(There might be even-more-obscure ways to change the expression's
behavior without changing the plpgsql function, but that one seems
like the only one people would be likely to hit in practice.)
The most foolproof way to fix this would be to arrange for
exec_prepare_plan to not set expr->plan until we've finished the
subsidiary simple-expression check. But it seems hard to do that
without creating reference-count leak issues. So settle for documenting
the hazard in a comment and fixing exec_stmt_execsql to test separately
for whether it's computed stmt->mod_stmt. (That adds a test-and-branch
per execution, but hopefully that's negligible in context.) In v11 and
up, also fix exec_stmt_call which had a variant of the same issue.

This is a revert of 6cea447, that disabled those tests temporarily on
Windows due to failures with bowerbird where gzflush() would fail when

The logic handling the opening of new WAL segments was fuzzy when using
--compress if a partial, non-compressed, segment with the same base name
existed in the repository storing those files. In this case, using
--compress would cause the code to first check for the existence and the
size of a non-compressed segment, followed by the opening of a new
compressed, partial, segment. The code was accidentally working
correctly on most platforms as the buildfarm has proved, except
bowerbird where gzflush() could fail in this code path. It is wrong
anyway to take the code path used pre-padding when creating a new
partial, non-compressed, segment, so let's fix it.
Note that this issue exists when users mix successive runs of
pg_receivewal with or without compression, as discovered with the tests
introduced by ffc9dda.
While on it, this refactors the code so as code paths that need to know
about the ".gz" suffix are down from four to one in walmethods.c, easing
a bit the introduction of new compression methods. This addresses a
second issue where log messages generated for an unexpected failure
would not show the compressed segment name involved, which was
confusing, printing instead the name of the non-compressed equivalent.

There is a non-trivial amount of code that handles ZLIB compression in

was no automated coverage for it.
This commit introduces a set of conditional tests (if the build supports
ZLIB) to cover the creation of ZLIB-compressed WAL segments, the
handling of the partial, compressed, WAL segments and the compression
operation in itself. Note that there is an extra phase checking the
validity of the generated files by using directly a gzip command, passed
down by the Makefile of pg_receivewal. This part is skipped if the
command cannot be found, something likely going to happen on Windows
with MSVC except if one sets the variable GZIP_PROGRAM in the

This set of tests will become handy for upcoming patches that add more
options for the compression methods used by pg_receivewal, like LZ4, to

To add support for streaming transactions at prepare time into the
built-in logical replication, we need to do the following things:
* Modify the output plugin (pgoutput) to implement the new two-phase API
callbacks, by leveraging the extended replication protocol.
* Modify the replication apply worker, to properly handle two-phase
transactions by replaying them on prepare.
* Add a new SUBSCRIPTION option "two_phase" to allow users to enable
two-phase transactions. We enable the two_phase once the initial data sync
is over.
We however must explicitly disable replication of two-phase transactions
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 know
where to send the data anyway.
The streaming option is not allowed with this new two_phase option. This
can be done as a separate patch.
We don't allow to toggle two_phase option of a subscription because it can
lead to an inconsistent replica. For the same reason, we don't allow to
refresh the publication once the two_phase is enabled for a subscription
unless copy_data option is false.

41469253e went to the trouble of removing a theoretical bug from
free_sort_tuple by checking if the tuple was NULL before freeing it. Let's
make this a little more robust by also setting the tuple to NULL so that
should we be called again we won't end up doing a pfree on the already
pfree'd tuple. Per advice from Tom Lane.

This fixes a theoretical bug in tuplesort.c which, if a bounded sort was
used in combination with a byval Datum sort (tuplesort_begin_datum), when
switching the sort to a bounded heap in make_bounded_heap(), we'd call
free_sort_tuple(). The problem was that when sorting Datums of a byval
type, the tuple is NULL and free_sort_tuple() would free the memory for it
regardless of that. This would result in a crash.
Here we fix that simply by adding a check to see if the tuple is NULL
before trying to disassociate and free any memory belonging to it.
The reason this bug is only theoretical is that nowhere in the current
code base do we do tuplesort_set_bound() when performing a Datum sort.
However, let's backpatch a fix for this as if any extension uses the code
in this way then it's likely to cause problems.

Allow a pager to be used by the \watch command. This works but isn't
very useful with traditional pagers like "less", so use a different
environment variable. The popular open source tool "pspg" (also by
Pavel) knows how to display the output if you set PSQL_WATCH_PAGER="pspg
--stream".
To make \watch react quickly when the user quits the pager or presses
^C, and also to increase the accuracy of its timing and decrease the
rate of useless context switches, change the main loop of the \watch
command to use sigwait() rather than a sleeping/polling loop, on Unix.

AC_REPLACE_FUNCS. We can use AC_CHECK_DECLS instead, so long as

The idea behind this patch is to design out bugs like the one fixed
by commit 9d523119f. Previously, once one did RelationOpenSmgr(rel),
it was considered okay to access rel->rd_smgr directly for some
not-very-clear interval. But since that pointer will be cleared by
relcache flushes, we had bugs arising from overreliance on a previous
RelationOpenSmgr call still being effective.
Now, very little code except that in rel.h and relcache.c should ever
touch the rd_smgr field directly. The normal coding rule is to use
RelationGetSmgr(rel) and not expect the result to be valid for longer
than one smgr function call. There are a couple of places where using
the function every single time seemed like overkill, but they are now
annotated with large warning comments.
Amul Sul, after an idea of mine.

if relying on the implementation of stat() in MinGW to take care of the

The code introduced by bed9075 to enhance the stat() implementation on
Windows for file sizes larger than 4GB fails to properly detect files
pending for deletion with its method based on NtQueryInformationFile()
or GetFileInformationByHandleEx(), as proved by Alexander Lakhin in a
custom TAP test of his own.
The method used in the implementation of open() to sleep and loop when
when failing on ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (EACCES) is showing much more
stability, so switch to this method. This could still lead to issues if
the permission problem stays around for much longer than the timeout of
1 second used, but that should (hopefully) never happen in
performance-critical paths. Still, there could be a point in increasing
the timeouts for the sake of machines that handle heavy loads.
Note that WIN32's open() now uses microsoft_native_stat() as it should
be similar to stat() when working around issues with concurrent file
deletions.
I have spent some time testing this patch with pgbench in combination
of the SQL functions from genfile.c, as well as running the TAP test
provided on the thread with MSVC builds, and this looks much more
stable than the previous method.

Although we were careful to lock the object being added or dropped,

The following checks are added, to make the SASL infrastructure more
aware of defects when implementing new mechanisms:
- Detect that no output is generated by a mechanism if an exchange fails
in the backend, failing if there is a message waiting to be sent.
- Handle zero-length messages in the frontend. The backend handles that
already, and SCRAM would complain if sending empty messages as this is
not authorized for this mechanism, but other mechanisms may want this
capability (the SASL specification allows that).
- Make sure that a mechanism generates a message in the middle of the
exchange in the frontend.
SCRAM, as implemented, respects all these requirements already, and the
recent refactoring of SASL done in 9fd8557 helps in documenting that in
a cleaner way.

We've grown 2 versions of pg_size_pretty over the years, one for BIGINT
and one for NUMERIC. Both should output the same, but keeping them in
sync is harder than needed due to neither function sharing a source of
truth about which units to use and how to transition to the next largest
unit.
Here we add a static array which defines the units that we recognize and
have both pg_size_pretty and pg_size_pretty_numeric use it. This will
make adding any units in the future a very simple task.
The table contains all information required to allow us to also modify
pg_size_bytes to use the lookup table, so adjust that too.

Due to how pg_size_pretty(bigint) was implemented, it's possible that when
given a negative number of bytes that the returning value would not match
the equivalent positive return value when given the equivalent positive
number of bytes. This was due to two separate issues.
1. The function used bit shifting to convert the number of bytes into
larger units. The rounding performed by bit shifting is not the same as
dividing. For example -3 >> 1 = -2, but -3 / 2 = -1. These two
operations are only equivalent with positive numbers.
2. The half_rounded() macro rounded towards positive infinity. This meant
that negative numbers rounded towards zero and positive numbers rounded
away from zero.
Here we fix#1 by dividing the values instead of bit shifting. We fix#2
by adjusting the half_rounded macro always to round away from zero.
Additionally, adjust the pg_size_pretty(numeric) function to be more
explicit that it's using division rather than bit shifting. A casual
observer might have believed bit shifting was used due to a static
function being named numeric_shift_right. However, that function was
calculating the divisor from the number of bits and performed division.
Here we make that more clear. This change is just cosmetic and does not
affect the return value of the numeric version of the function.
Here we also add a set of regression tests both versions of
pg_size_pretty() which test the values directly before and after the
function switches to the next unit.
This bug was introduced in 8a1fab36a. Prior to that negative values were
always displayed in bytes.

Most error messages about a relkind that was not supported or

"relation \"%s\" is not a table, foreign table, or materialized view"
This style can become verbose and tedious to maintain. Moreover, it's

which is not supported, then the information that I could have created
a comment on a materialized view is pointless.
Instead, write the primary error message shorter and saying more

message, explain that the operation is not supported for the relkind
the object was. To simplify that, add a new function
errdetail_relkind_not_supported() that does this.

Similar to 50e17ad28, which allowed hash tables to be used for IN clauses
with a set of constants, here we add the same feature for NOT IN clauses.
NOT IN evaluates the same as: WHERE a <> v1 AND a <> v2 AND a <> v3.
Obviously, if we're using a hash table we must be exactly equivalent to
that and return the same result taking into account that either side of
the condition could contain a NULL. This requires a little bit of
special handling to make work with the hash table version.
When processing NOT IN, the ScalarArrayOpExpr's operator will be the <>
operator. To be able to build and lookup a hash table we must use the
<>'s negator operator. The planner checks if that exists and is hashable
and sets the relevant fields in ScalarArrayOpExpr to instruct the executor
to use hashing.

The code of SCRAM and SASL have been tightly linked together since SCRAM
exists in the core code, making hard to apprehend the addition of new
SASL mechanisms, but these are by design different facilities, with
SCRAM being an option for SASL. This refactors the code related to both
so as the backend and the frontend use a set of callbacks for SASL
mechanisms, documenting while on it what is expected by anybody adding a
new SASL mechanism.
The separation between both layers is neat, using two sets of callbacks
for the frontend and the backend to mark the frontier between both
facilities. The shape of the callbacks is now directly inspired from
the routines used by SCRAM, so the code change is straight-forward, and
the SASL code is moved into its own set of files. These will likely
change depending on how and if new SASL mechanisms get added in the

Joel Jacobson reported that deep nesting of trivial (flattenable)
views results in O(N^3) growth of planning time for N-deep nesting.
It turns out that a large chunk of this cost comes from copying around
the "subquery" sub-tree of each view's RTE_SUBQUERY RTE. But once we
have successfully flattened the subquery, we don't need that anymore,
because the planner isn't going to do anything else interesting with
that RTE. We already zap the subquery pointer during setrefs.c (cf.
add_rte_to_flat_rtable), but it's useless baggage earlier than that
too. Clearing the pointer as soon as pull_up_simple_subquery is done
with the RTE reduces the cost from O(N^3) to O(N^2); which is still
not great, but it's quite a lot better. Further improvements will
require rethinking of the RTE data structure, which is being considered
in another thread.

In each of the create_*_bound() functions for LIST, RANGE and HASH
partitioning, there were a large number of palloc calls which could be
reduced down to a much smaller number.
In each of these functions, an array was built so that we could qsort it
before making the PartitionBoundInfo. For LIST and HASH partitioning, an
array of pointers was allocated then each element was allocated within
that array. Since the number of items of each dimension is known
beforehand, we can just allocate a single chunk of memory for this.
Similarly, with all partition strategies, we're able to reduce the number
of allocations to build the ->datums field. This is an array of Datum
pointers, but there's no need for the Datums that each element points to
to be singly allocated. One big chunk will do. For RANGE partitioning,
the PartitionBoundInfo->kind field can get the same treatment.
We can apply the same optimizations to partition_bounds_copy(). Doing
this might have a small effect on cache performance when searching for the
correct partition during partition pruning or DML on a partitioned table.
However, that's likely to be small and this is mostly about reducing
palloc overhead.

Commit 03ffc4d6d added logic to bypass all caching behavior in
LookupOpclassInfo when CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS is enabled. It doesn't

recent investigation shows that the cost is enormous: it roughly
doubles the time needed for cache-clobber test runs.
There does seem to be value in this behavior when trying to test

cost is excessive. Hence, let's back off to doing this only when
debug_invalidate_system_caches_always is at least 3; or in older

Formerly various numeric aggregate functions supported parallel
aggregation by having each worker convert partial aggregate values to
Numeric and use numeric_send() as part of serializing their state.
That's problematic, since the range of Numeric is smaller than that of
NumericVar, so it's possible for it to overflow (on either side of the
decimal point) in cases that would succeed in non-parallel mode.
Fix by serializing NumericVars instead, to avoid the overflow risk and
ensure that parallel and non-parallel modes work the same.
A side benefit is that this improves the efficiency of the
serialization/deserialization code, which can make a noticeable
difference to performance with large numbers of parallel workers.
No back-patch due to risk from changing the binary format of the

Disable this check altogether in --enable-coverage builds,
because newer versions of gcc insert exit() as well as abort()
calls for that. Also disable it on AIX and Solaris, because
those platforms tend to provide facilities such as libldap
as static libraries, which then get included in libpq's shlib.
We can't expect such libraries to honor our coding rules.
(That platform list might need additional tweaking, but I think
this is enough to keep the buildfarm happy.)

The existing code tried to do syscache lookups in an already-failed
transaction, which is problematic to say the least. After some
consideration of alternatives, the best fix seems to be to just drop
type names from the error message altogether. The table and column
names seem like sufficient localization. If the user is unsure what
types are involved, she can check the local and remote table
definitions.
Having done that, we can also discard the LogicalRepTypMap hash
table, which had no other use. Arguably, LOGICAL_REP_MSG_TYPE
replication messages are now obsolete as well; but we should
probably keep them in case some other use emerges. (The complexity
of removing something from the replication protocol would likely
outweigh any savings anyhow.)

This commit removes a dependency to the central logging facilities in
the JSON parsing routines of src/common/, which existed to log errors
when seeing error codes that do not match any existing values in
JsonParseErrorType, which is not something that should never happen.
The routine providing a detailed error message based on the error code
is made backend-only, the existing code being unsafe to use in the
frontend as the error message may finish by being palloc'd or point to a
static string, so there is no way to know if the memory of the message
should be pfree'd or not. The only user of this routine in the frontend
was pg_verifybackup, that is changed to use a more generic error message
on parsing failure.
Note that making this code more resilient to OOM failures if used in
shared libraries would require much more work as a lot of code paths
still rely on palloc() & friends, but we are not sure yet if we need to
go down to that. Still, removing the dependency to logging is a step
toward more portability.
This cleans up the handling of check_stack_depth() while on it, as it
exists only in the backend.

Commit 4656e3d66 replaced the "#define CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS"
testing mechanism with a GUC, which has been a great help for
doing cache-clobber testing in more efficient ways; but there
is a gap in the implementation. The only way to do cache-clobber
testing during an initdb run is to use the old method with #define,
because one can't set the GUC from outside. Improve this by
adding a switch to initdb for the purpose.
(Perhaps someday we should let initdb pass through arbitrary
"-c NAME=VALUE" switches. Quoting difficulties dissuaded me
from attempting that right now, though.)

Several places were performing a tight loop to determine the first power
of 2 number that's > or >= the required memory. Instead of using a loop
for that, we can use pg_nextpower2_32 or pg_nextpower2_64. When we need a
power of 2 number equal to or greater than a given amount, we just pass
the amount to the nextpower2 function. When we need a power of 2 greater
than the amount, we just pass the amount + 1.
Additionally, in tsearch there were a couple of locations that were
performing a while loop when a simple "if" would have done. In both of
these locations only 1 item is being added, so the loop could only have
ever iterated once. Changing the loop into an if statement makes the code
very slightly more optimal as the condition is checked once rather than
twice.
There are quite a few remaining locations that increase the size of the
buffer in the following form:
while (reqsize >= buflen)
{
buflen *= 2;
buf = repalloc(buf, buflen);
}
These are not touched in this commit. repalloc will error out for sizes
larger than MaxAllocSize. Changing these to use pg_nextpower2_32 would
remove the chance of that error being raised. It's unclear from the code
if the sizes could ever become that large, so err on the side of caution.

Give up on trying to mechanically forbid abort() within libpq.
Even though there are no such calls in the source code, we've now
seen three different scenarios where build toolchains silently
insert such calls: gcc does it for profiling, some platforms
implement assert() using it, and icc does so for no visible reason.
Checking for accidental use of exit() seems considerably more
important than checking for abort(), so we'll settle for doing
that for now.
Also, filter out __cxa_atexit() to avoid a false match. It seems
that OpenBSD inserts a call to that despite the fact that libpq

The number of blocks and files written is tracked and reported by the

Directly exiting or aborting seems like poor form for a general-purpose
library. Now that libpq liberally uses bits out of src/common/,
it's very easy to accidentally include code that would do something
unwanted like calling exit(1) after OOM --- see for example 8ec00dc5c.
Hence, add a simple cross-check that no such calls have made it into
libpq.so.
The cross-check depends on nm(1) being available and being able to
work on a shared library, which probably isn't true everywhere.
But we can just make the test silently do nothing if nm fails.
As long as the check is effective on common platforms, that should
be good enough. (By the same logic, I've not worried about providing
an equivalent test in MSVC builds.)

Doing an abort() seems all right in development builds, but not in
production builds of general-purpose libraries. However, the functions
that were doing this lack any way to report a failure back up to their
callers. It seems like we can just get away with ignoring failures in
production builds, since (a) no such failures have been reported in the
dozen years that the code's been like this, and (b) failure to enforce
mutual exclusion during fe-auth.c operations would likely not cause any
problems anyway in most cases. (The OpenSSL callbacks that use this
macro are obsolete, so even less likely to cause interesting problems.)
Possibly a better answer would be to break compatibility of the
pgthreadlock_t callback API, but in the absence of field problem
reports, it doesn't really seem worth the trouble.

This is reproducible with gcc using at least -O0. The last checks
validating the compression of a block could not be reached with this
variable not set, but let's be clean.
Oversight in 4035cd5, per buildfarm member lapwing.
The logic is implemented so as there can be a choice in the compression
used when building a WAL record, and an extra per-record bit is used to
track down if a block is compressed with PGLZ, LZ4 or nothing.
wal_compression, the existing parameter, is changed to an enum with
support for the following backward-compatible values:
- "off", the default, to not use compression.
- "pglz" or "on", to compress FPWs with PGLZ.
- "lz4", the new mode, to compress FPWs with LZ4.
Benchmarking has showed that LZ4 outclasses easily PGLZ. ZSTD would be
also an interesting choice, but going just with LZ4 for now makes the
patch minimalistic as toast compression is already able to use LZ4, so
there is no need to worry about any build-related needs for this
implementation.
