The prior behavior was confusing and hard to document. For instance,
if you had UPDATE privileges, you could lock a table in any lock mode
except ACCESS SHARE mode.
Now, if granted a privilege to lock at a given mode, one also has
privileges to lock at a less-conflicting mode. MAINTAIN, UPDATE,
DELETE, and TRUNCATE privileges allow any lock mode. INSERT privileges
allow ROW EXCLUSIVE (or below). SELECT privileges allow ACCESS SHARE.

We don't allow different column lists for the same table in the different
publications of the single subscription. A publication with a column list
except for dropped and generated columns should be considered the same as
a publication with no column list (which implicitly includes all columns
as part of the columns list). However, as we were not excluding the
dropped and generated columns from the column list combining such
publications leads to an error "cannot use different column lists for
table ...".
We decided not to backpatch this fix as there is a risk of users seeing
this as a behavior change and also we didn't see any field report of this
case.

Regexp replacement with \1 in pg_ident.conf is tested in one check of
the kerberos test suite, still it requires a dependency on
--with-gssapi to be triggered. This commit adds to the test suite of
peer authentication two tests to check the replacement of \1 in a

- With a subexpression in system-username, similarly to the kerberos
test suite.
- Without a subexpression in system-username, checking for a failure.
This had no coverage until now, and the error pattern is checked in the

The current jsonpath code assumes that the referenced variable always exists.
It could only throw an error at the value valuation time. At the same time
existence checking assumes variable is present without valuation, and error
suppression doesn't work for missing variables.
This commit makes existense checking trigger an error for missing variables.

This reverts commit 1b4d280ea1.
It's broken the buildfarm members that run cross-version-upgrade tests,
because they're not prepared to deal with cosmetic differences between
CREATE VIEW commands emitted by older servers and HEAD. Even if we had
a solution to that, which we don't, it'd take some time to roll it out
to the affected animals. This improvement isn't valuable enough to
justify addressing that problem on an emergency basis, so revert it
for now.
The rule system needs "old" and/or "new" pseudo-RTEs in rule actions
that are ON INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Historically it's put such entries
into the ON SELECT rules of views as well, but those are really quite
vestigial. The only thing we've used them for is to carry the
view's relid forward to AcquireExecutorLocks (so that we can
re-lock the view to verify it hasn't changed before re-using a plan)
and to carry its relid and permissions data forward to execution-time
permissions checks. What we can do instead of that is to retain
these fields of the RTE_RELATION RTE for the view even after we
convert it to an RTE_SUBQUERY RTE. This requires a tiny amount of
extra complication in the planner and AcquireExecutorLocks, but on
the other hand we can get rid of the logic that moves that data from
one place to another.
The principal immediate benefit of doing this, aside from a small
saving in the pg_rewrite data for views, is that these pseudo-RTEs
no longer trigger ruleutils.c's heuristic about qualifying variable
names when the rangetable's length is more than 1. That results
in quite a number of small simplifications in regression test outputs,
which are all to the good IMO.
Bump catversion because we need to dump a few more fields of
RTE_SUBQUERY RTEs. While those will always be zeroes anyway in
stored rules (because we'd never populate them until query rewrite)
they are useful for debugging, and it seems like we'd better make
sure to transmit such RTEs accurately in plans sent to parallel
workers. I don't think the executor actually examines these fields
after startup, but someday it might.

In both partitioning and traditional inheritance, require child
columns to be GENERATED if and only if their parent(s) are.
Formerly we allowed the case of an inherited column being
GENERATED when its parent isn't, but that results in inconsistent
behavior: the column can be directly updated through an UPDATE
on the parent table, leading to it containing a user-supplied
value that might not match the generation expression. This also
fixes an oversight that we enforced partition-key-columns-can't-
be-GENERATED against parent tables, but not against child tables
that were dynamically attached to them.
Also, remove the restriction that the child's generation expression
be equivalent to the parent's. In the wake of commit 3f7836ff6,
there doesn't seem to be any reason that we need that restriction,
since generation expressions are always computed per-table anyway.
By removing this, we can also allow a child to merge multiple
inheritance parents with inconsistent generation expressions, by
overriding them with its own expression, much as we've long allowed
for DEFAULT expressions.
Since we're rejecting a case that we used to accept, this doesn't
seem like a back-patchable change. Given the lack of field
complaints about the inconsistent behavior, it's likely that no
one is doing this anyway, but we won't change it in minor releases.

Commits cf5eb37c5 and e5b8a4c09 each created a new role that they
forgot to remove again. This breaks the use-case of running "make
installcheck" more than once, and it's also against project policy
because it'd be quite unfriendly behavior if one were running
"make installcheck" against a non-throwaway installation.
Prior to this, we only considered a full sort on the cheapest input path
and uniquifying any path which was already sorted in the required sort
order. Here we adjust create_final_distinct_paths() so that it also
adds an Incremental Sort path on any path which has presorted keys.
Additionally, this adjusts the parallel distinct code so that we now
consider sorting the cheapest partial path and incrementally sorting any
partial paths with presorted keys. Previously we didn't consider any
sorting for parallel distinct and only added a unique path atop any path
which had the required pathkeys already.

Can be set to the empty string, or to either or both of "set" or
"inherit". If set to a non-empty value, a non-superuser who creates
a role (necessarily by relying up the CREATEROLE privilege) will
grant that role back to themselves with the specified options.
This isn't a security feature, because the grant that this feature
triggers can also be performed explicitly. Instead, it's a user experience
feature. A superuser would necessarily inherit the privileges of any
created role and be able to access all such roles via SET ROLE;
with this patch, you can configure createrole_self_grant = 'set, inherit'
to provide a similar experience for a user who has CREATEROLE but not

Previously, CREATEROLE users were permitted to make nearly arbitrary
changes to roles that they didn't create, with certain exceptions,
particularly superuser roles. Instead, allow CREATEROLE users to make such
changes to roles for which they possess ADMIN OPTION, and to
grant membership only in roles for which they possess ADMIN OPTION.
When a CREATEROLE user who is not a superuser creates a role, grant
ADMIN OPTION on the newly-created role to the creator, so that they
can administer roles they create or for which they have been given
privileges.
With these changes, CREATEROLE users still have very significant
powers that unprivileged users do not receive: they can alter, rename,
drop, comment on, change the password for, and change security labels
on roles. However, they can now do these things only for roles for
which they possess appropriate privileges, rather than all
non-superuser roles; moreover, they cannot grant a role such as
pg_execute_server_program unless they themselves possess it.

We had some pretty ad-hoc and inefficient code here. To make

one in every few tens of thousands of runs. Replace the
script altogether with new test cases that prove much more
about random()'s output, run faster, and can be calculated
to have test failure rates on the order of 1e-9.
Having done that, the failure rate of this script should be
negligible in comparison to other causes of test failures,

Currently, for large transactions, the publisher sends the data in
multiple streams (changes divided into chunks depending upon
logical_decoding_work_mem), and then on the subscriber-side, the apply
worker writes the changes into temporary files and once it receives the
commit, it reads from those files and applies the entire transaction. To
improve the performance of such transactions, we can instead allow them to
be applied via parallel workers.
In this approach, we assign a new parallel apply worker (if available) as
soon as the xact's first stream is received and the leader apply worker
will send changes to this new worker via shared memory. The parallel apply
worker will directly apply the change instead of writing it to temporary
files. However, if the leader apply worker times out while attempting to
send a message to the parallel apply worker, it will switch to
"partial serialize" mode - in this mode, the leader serializes all
remaining changes to a file and notifies the parallel apply workers to
read and apply them at the end of the transaction. We use a non-blocking
way to send the messages from the leader apply worker to the parallel
apply to avoid deadlocks. We keep this parallel apply assigned till the
transaction commit is received and also wait for the worker to finish at
commit. This preserves commit ordering and avoid writing to and reading
from files in most cases. We still need to spill if there is no worker
available.
This patch also extends the SUBSCRIPTION 'streaming' parameter so that the
user can control whether to apply the streaming transaction in a parallel
apply worker or spill the change to disk. The user can set the streaming
parameter to 'on/off', or 'parallel'. The parameter value 'parallel' means
the streaming will be applied via a parallel apply worker, if available.
The parameter value 'on' means the streaming transaction will be spilled
to disk. The default value is 'off' (same as current behaviour).
In addition, the patch extends the logical replication STREAM_ABORT
message so that abort_lsn and abort_time can also be sent which can be
used to update the replication origin in parallel apply worker when the
streaming transaction is aborted. Because this message extension is needed
to support parallel streaming, parallel streaming is not supported for
publications on servers < PG16.

During the development of 728202b63, which was aimed at reducing the
number of sorts required to evaluate multiple window functions with
different WindowClause definitions, the code written sorted the
WindowClauses in reverse tleSortGroupRef order. There appears to be no
discussion in the thread which was opened to discuss the development of
this patch and no comments mentioning the fact that having the
WindowClauses in reverse tleSortGroupRef order makes it more likely that
the final WindowClause to be evaluated will provide presorted input to
the query's DISTINCT or ORDER BY clause. The reason for this is that the
tleSortGroupRef indexes are assigned for the DISTINCT and ORDER BY clauses
before they are for the WindowClauses PARTITION BY and ORDER BY clauses.
Putting the WindowClause with the lowest tleSortGroupRef last means that
it's more likely that no additional sorting is required for the query's
DISTINCT or ORDER BY clause.

that remains true and that we don't accidentally forget to consider this

VACUUM normally ends by running vac_update_datfrozenxid(), which
requires a scan of pg_class. Therefore, if one attempts to vacuum a
database one table at a time --- as vacuumdb has done since v12 ---
we will spend O(N^2) time in vac_update_datfrozenxid(). That causes
serious performance problems in databases with tens of thousands of
tables, and indeed the effect is measurable with only a few hundred.
To add insult to injury, only one process can run
vac_update_datfrozenxid at the same time per DB, so this behavior
largely defeats vacuumdb's -j option.
Hence, invent options SKIP_DATABASE_STATS and ONLY_DATABASE_STATS
to allow applications to postpone vac_update_datfrozenxid() until the
end of a series of VACUUM requests, and teach vacuumdb to use them.

like something we'd consider back-patching, so the performance
problem will remain in v12-v15.

We were identifying the updatable generated columns of inheritance
children by transposing the calculation made for their parent.
However, there's nothing that says a traditional-inheritance child
can't have generated columns that aren't there in its parent, or that
have different dependencies than are in the parent's expression.
(At present it seems that we don't enforce that for partitioning
either, which is likely wrong to some degree or other; but the case
clearly needs to be handled with traditional inheritance.)
Hence, drop the very-klugy-anyway "extraUpdatedCols" RTE field
in favor of identifying which generated columns depend on updated
columns during executor startup. In HEAD we can remove
extraUpdatedCols altogether; in back branches, it's still there but
always empty. Another difference between the HEAD and back-branch
versions of this patch is that in HEAD we can add the new bitmap field
to ResultRelInfo, but that would cause an ABI break in back branches.
Like 4b3e37993, add a List field at the end of struct EState instead.
Back-patch to v13. The bogus calculation is also being made in v12,
but it doesn't have the same visible effect because we don't use it
to decide which generated columns to recalculate; as a consequence of
which the patch doesn't apply easily. I think that there might still
be a demonstrable bug associated with trigger firing conditions, but
that's such a weird corner-case usage that I'm content to leave it
unfixed in v12.

A refcursor variable that is bound to a specific query (by declaring
it with "CURSOR FOR") now chooses a portal name in the same way as an
unbound, plain refcursor variable. Its string value starts out as
NULL, and unless that's overridden by manual assignment, it will be
replaced by a unique-within-session portal name during OPEN.
The previous behavior was to initialize such variables to contain
their own name, resulting in that also being the portal name unless
the user overwrote it before OPEN. The trouble with this is that
it causes failures due to conflicting portal names if the same
cursor variable name is used in different functions. It is pretty
non-orthogonal to have bound and unbound refcursor variables behave
differently on this point, too, so let's change it.
This change can cause compatibility problems for applications that
open a bound cursor in a plpgsql function and then use it in the
calling code without explicitly passing back the refcursor value
(portal name). If the calling code simply assumes that the portal
name matches the called function's variable name, it will now fail.
That can be fixed by explicitly assigning a string value to the
refcursor variable before OPEN, e.g.
DECLARE myc CURSOR FOR SELECT ...;
BEGIN
myc := 'myc'; -- add this
OPEN myc;
We have no documentation examples showing the troublesome usage
pattern, so we can hope it's rare in practice.

This is not really complete, but it catches most cases of practical

* regtype, regprocedure, and regoperator parse type names by
calling the main grammar, so any grammar-detected syntax error
will still be a hard error. Also, if one includes a type
modifier in such a type specification, errors detected by the
typmodin function will be hard errors.
* Lookup errors are handled just by passing missing_ok = true
to the relevant catalog lookup function. Because we've used
quite a restrictive definition of "missing_ok", this means that
edge cases such as "the named schema exists, but you lack
USAGE permission on it" are still hard errors.
It would make sense to me to replace most/all missing_ok

additional lookup failure cases to be trapped too. But that's
a job for some other day.

Historically these input functions just called strtoul or strtoull
and returned the result, with no error detection whatever. Upgrade
them to reject garbage input and out-of-range values, similarly to
our other numeric input routines.
To share the code for this with type oid, adjust the existing
"oidin_subr" to be agnostic about the SQL name of the type it is
handling, and move it to numutils.c; then clone it for 64-bit types.
Because the xid types previously accepted hex and octal input by
reason of calling strtoul[l] with third argument zero, I made the
common subroutine do that too, with the consequence that type oid
now also accepts hex and octal input. In view of 6fcda9aba, that
seems like a good thing.
While at it, simplify the existing over-complicated handling of

pg_get_wal_records_info only accepts to read up to the flush position
(cf. IsFutureLSN()). In normal conditions there is no difference, since
the last record written by the preceding loop is known flushed and it's
the one the test wants; but it's possible to have some other process
insert another WAL record that isn't flushed, and that causes the whole

WindowFuncs such as row_number() don't care if it's called with ROWS
UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND CURRENT ROW or with RANGE UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND
CURRENT ROW. The latter is less efficient as the RANGE option requires
that the executor check for peer rows, so using the ROW option instead
would cause less overhead. Because RANGE is part of the default frame
options for WindowClauses, it means WindowAgg is, by default, working much
harder than it needs to for window functions where the ROWS / RANGE option
has no effect on the window function's result.
On a test query from the discussion thread, a performance improvement of
344% was seen by using ROWS instead of RANGE.
Here we add a new support function node type to allow support functions to
be called for window functions so that the most optimal version of the
frame options can be set. The planner has been adjusted so that the frame
options are changed only if all window functions sharing the same window
clause agree on what the optimized frame options are.
Here we give the ability for row_number(), rank(), dense_rank(),

left up to nodeAgg.c to perform the final sort of records within each
group so that the aggregate transition functions were called in the
correct order. Now that the planner requests the lower planner produce a
plan with the GROUP BY and the ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates in mind,
there is the possibility that the planner chooses a plan which could be
less efficient than what would have been produced before 1349d279.
While developing 1349d279, I had in mind that Incremental Sort would help
us in cases where an index exists only on the GROUP BY column(s).
Incremental Sort would just replace the implicit tuplesorts which are
being performed in nodeAgg.c. However, because the planner has the
flexibility to instead choose a plan which just performs a full sort on
both the GROUP BY and ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregate columns, there is
potential for the planner to make a bad choice. The costing for
Incremental Sort is not perfect as it assumes an even distribution of rows
to sort within each sort group.
Here we add an escape hatch in the form of the enable_presorted_aggregate
GUC. This will allow users to get the pre-PG16 behavior in cases where
they have no other means to convince the query planner to produce a plan
which only sorts on the GROUP BY column(s).

This function takes in input a WAL segment name and returns a tuple made
of the segment sequence number (dependent on the WAL segment size of the
cluster) and its timeline, as of a thin SQL wrapper around the existing
XLogFromFileName().
This function has multiple usages, like being able to compile a LSN from
a file name and an offset, or finding the timeline of a segment without
having to do to some maths based on the first eight characters of the

While fooling with my pet outer-join-variables patch, I discovered
that the test case I added in commit 11086f2f2 no longer demonstrates
what it's supposed to. The idea is to tempt the planner to reverse
the order of the two outer joins, which would leave noplace to
correctly evaluate the WHERE clause that's inserted between them.
Before the addition of the delay_upper_joins mechanism, it would
have taken the bait.
However, subsequent improvements broke the test in two different ways.
First, we now recognize the IS NULL coding pattern as an antijoin, and
we won't re-order antijoins; even if we did, the IS NULL test clauses
get removed so there would be no opportunity for them to misbehave.
Second, the planner now discovers that nested parameterized indexscans
are a lot cheaper than the double hash join it used back in the day,
and that approach doesn't want to re-order the joins anyway. Thus,
in HEAD the test passes even if one dikes out delay_upper_joins.
To fix, change the IS NULL tests to COALESCE clauses, which produce
the same results but the planner isn't smart enough to convert them
to antijoins. It'll still go for parameterized indexscans though,
so drop the index enabling that (don't know why I added that in the
first place), and disable nestloop joining just to be sure.
This time around, add an EXPLAIN to make the choice of plan visible.
Such references failed with "cache lookup failed for type 0"
because we didn't resolve the type of the CYCLE column until after
analyzing the CTE's query. We can just move that processing
to before the recursive parse_sub_analyze call, though.

code less egregiously wider-than-80-columns.

The key idea here is that xml_parse must distinguish hard errors
from soft errors. We want to throw a hard error for libxml
initialization failures: those might be out-of-memory, or something
else, but in any case they are not the fault of the input string.
If we get to the point of parsing the input, and something goes
wrong, we can fairly consider that to mean bad input.
One thing that arguably does mean bad input, but I didn't trouble
to handle softly, is encoding conversion failure while converting
the server encoding to UTF8. This might be something to improve
later, but it seems like a pretty low-probability scenario.

When incremental sorts were added in v13 a 1.5x pessimism factor was added
to the cost modal. Seemingly this was done because the cost modal only
has an estimate of the total number of input rows and the number of
presorted groups. It assumes that the input rows will be evenly
distributed throughout the presorted groups. The 1.5x pessimism factor
was added to slightly reduce the likelihood of incremental sorts being
used in the hope to avoid performance regressions where an incremental
sort plan was picked and turned out slower due to a large skew in the
number of rows in the presorted groups.
An additional quirk with the path generation code meant that we could
consider both a sort and an incremental sort on paths with presorted keys.
This meant that with the pessimism factor, it was possible that we opted
to perform a sort rather than an incremental sort when the given path had
presorted keys.
Here we remove the 1.5x pessimism factor to allow incremental sorts to
have a fairer chance at being chosen against a full sort.
Previously we would generally create a sort path on the cheapest input
path (if that wasn't sorted already) and incremental sort paths on any
path which had presorted keys. This meant that if the cheapest input path
wasn't completely sorted but happened to have presorted keys, we would
create a full sort path *and* an incremental sort path on that input path.
Here we change this logic so that if there are presorted keys, we only
create an incremental sort path, and create sort paths only when a full
sort is required.
Both the removal of the cost pessimism factor and the changes made to the
path generation make it more likely that incremental sorts will now be
chosen. That, of course, as with teaching the planner any new tricks,
means an increased likelihood that the planner will perform an incremental
sort when it's not the best method. Our standard escape hatch for these
cases is an enable_* GUC. enable_incremental_sort already exists for
this.
This came out of a report by Pavel Luzanov where he mentioned that the
master branch was choosing to perform a Seq Scan -> Sort -> Group
Aggregate for his query with an ORDER BY aggregate function. The v15 plan
for his query performed an Index Scan -> Group Aggregate, of course, the
aggregate performed the final sort internally in nodeAgg.c for the
aggregate's ORDER BY. The ideal plan would have been to use the index,
which provided partially sorted input then use an incremental sort to
provide the aggregate with the sorted input. This was not being chosen
due to the pessimism in the incremental sort cost modal, so here we remove
that and rationalize the path generation so that sort and incremental sort
plans don't have to needlessly compete. We assume that it's senseless
to ever use a full sort on a given input path where an incremental sort
can be performed.

It seems that drop-index-concurrently-1 has started to forget what it was
originally meant to be testing. d2d8a229b, which added incremental sorts
changed the expected plan to be an Index Scan plan instead of a Seq Scan
plan. This occurred as the primary key index of the table in question
provided presorted input and, because that index happened to be the
cheapest input path due to enable_seqscan being disabled, the incremental
sort changes just added a Sort on top of that. It seems based on the name
of the PREPAREd statement that the intention here is that the query
produces a seqscan plan.
The reason this test has become broken seems to be due to how the test was
originally coded. The test was trying to force a seqscan plan by
performing some casting to make it so the test_dc index couldn't be used
to perform the required filtering. Trying to coax the planner into using
a plan which has costed in a disable_cost seems like it's always going to
be flakey as small changes in costs are drowned out by the large
disable_cost combined with add_path's STD_FUZZ_FACTOR. Here we get rid of
the casts that we're using to try to trick the planner into a seqscan and
instead toggle enable_seqscan as and when required to get the desired
plan.
Additionally, rename a few things in the test and add some additional
wording to the comments to try and make it more clear in the future what
we expect this test to be doing.

Backpatch-through: 13, where d2d8a229b changed the expected test output
This is mostly straightforward, except that if the range type
has a canonical function, that might throw an error during range
input. (Such errors probably only occur for edge cases: in the
in-core canonical functions, it happens only if a bound has the
maximum valid value for the underlying type.) Hence, this patch
extends the soft-error regime to allow canonical functions to
return errors softly as well. Extensions implementing range
canonical functions will need modification anyway because of the
API change for range_serialize(); while at it, they might want
to do something similar to what's been done here in the in-core
canonical functions.

jsonb_get_element() was incautious enough to use VARDATA() and
VARSIZE() directly on an arbitrary text Datum. That of course
fails if the Datum is short-header, compressed, or out-of-line.
The typical result would be failing to match any element of a
jsonb object, though matching the wrong one seems possible as well.
setPathObject() was slightly brighter, in that it used VARDATA_ANY
and VARSIZE_ANY_EXHDR, but that only kept it out of trouble for
short-header Datums. push_path() had the same issue. This could
result in faulty subscripted insertions, though keys long enough to
cause a problem are likely rare in the wild.
Having seen these, I looked around for unsafe usages in the rest
of the adt/json* files. There are a couple of places where it's not
immediately obvious that the Datum can't be compressed or out-of-line,
so I added pg_detoast_datum_packed() to cope if it is. Also, remove
some other usages of VARDATA/VARSIZE on Datums we just extracted from
a text array. Those aren't actively broken, but they will become so
if we ever start allowing short-header array elements, which does not
seem like a terribly unreasonable thing to do. In any case they are
not great coding examples, and they could also do with comments
pointing out that we're assuming we don't need pg_detoast_datum_packed.

This is straightforward as far as it goes. However, it does not
attempt to trap errors occurring during the execution of domain
CHECK constraints. Since those are general user-defined
expressions, the only way to do that would involve starting up a
subtransaction for each check. Of course the entire point of
the soft-errors feature is to not need subtransactions, so that
would be self-defeating. For now, we'll rely on the assumption
that domain checks are written to avoid throwing errors.

Currently, information about the permissions to be checked on relations
mentioned in a query is stored in their range table entries. So the
executor must scan the entire range table looking for relations that
need to have permissions checked. This can make the permission checking
part of the executor initialization needlessly expensive when many
inheritance children are present in the range range. While the
permissions need not be checked on the individual child relations, the
executor still must visit every range table entry to filter them out.
This commit moves the permission checking information out of the range
table entries into a new plan node called RTEPermissionInfo. Every
top-level (inheritance "root") RTE_RELATION entry in the range table
gets one and a list of those is maintained alongside the range table.
This new list is initialized by the parser when initializing the range
table. The rewriter can add more entries to it as rules/views are
expanded. Finally, the planner combines the lists of the individual
subqueries into one flat list that is passed to the executor for
checking.
To make it quick to find the RTEPermissionInfo entry belonging to a
given relation, RangeTblEntry gets a new Index field 'perminfoindex'
that stores the corresponding RTEPermissionInfo's index in the query's
list of the latter.
ExecutorCheckPerms_hook has gained another List * argument; the
signature is now:
typedef bool (*ExecutorCheckPerms_hook_type) (List *rangeTable,
List *rtePermInfos,
bool ereport_on_violation);
The first argument is no longer used by any in-core uses of the hook,
but we leave it in place because there may be other implementations that
do. Implementations should likely scan the rtePermInfos list to
determine which operations to allow or deny.

When updating a relation with a rule whose action performed an INSERT
from a multi-row VALUES list, the rewriter might skip processing the
VALUES list, and therefore fail to replace any DEFAULTs in it. This
would lead to an "unrecognized node type" error.
The reason was that RewriteQuery() assumed that a query doing an
INSERT from a multi-row VALUES list would necessarily only have one
item in its fromlist, pointing to the VALUES RTE to read from. That
assumption is correct for the original query, but not for product
queries produced for rule actions. In such cases, there may be
multiple items in the fromlist, possibly including multiple VALUES
RTEs.
What is required instead is for RewriteQuery() to skip any RTEs from
the product query's originating query, which might include one or more
already-processed VALUES RTEs. What's left should then include at most
one VALUES RTE (from the rule action) to be processed.

Up to now we have allowed manual creation of an ON SELECT rule on
a table to convert it into a view. That was never anything but a
horrid, error-prone hack though. pg_dump used to rely on that
behavior to deal with cases involving circular dependencies,
where a dependency loop could be broken by separating the creation
of a view from installation of its ON SELECT rule. However, we
changed pg_dump to use CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW for that in commit
d8c05aff5 (which was later back-patched as far as 9.4), so there's
not a good argument anymore for continuing to support the behavior.
The proximate reason for axing it now is that we found that the
new statistics code has failure modes associated with the relkind
change caused by this behavior. We'll patch around that in v15,
but going forward it seems like a better idea to get rid of the

Compression specifications are currently used by pg_basebackup and
pg_receivewal, and are able to let the user control in an extended way
the method and level of compression used. As an effect of this commit,
pg_dump's -Z/--compress is now able to use more than just an integer, as
of the grammar "method[:detail]".
The method can be either "none" or "gzip", and can optionally take a
detail string. If the detail string is only an integer, it defines the
compression level. A comma-separated list of keywords can also be used
method allows for more options, the only keyword supported now is
"level".
The change is backward-compatible, hence specifying only an integer
leads to no compression for a level of 0 and gzip compression when the
level is greater than 0.
Most of the code changes are straight-forward, as pg_dump was relying on
an integer tracking the compression level to check for gzip or no
compression. These are changed to use a compression specification and
the algorithm stored in it.
As of this change, note that the dump format is not bumped because there
is no need yet to track the compression algorithm in the TOC entries.
Hence, we still rely on the compression level to make the difference
when reading them. This will be mandatory once a new compression method
is added, though.
In order to keep the code simpler when parsing the compression
specification, the code is changed so as pg_dump now fails hard when
using gzip on -Z/--compress without its support compiled, rather than
enforcing no compression without the user knowing about it except
through a warning. Like before this commit, archive and custom formats
are compressed by default when the code is compiled with gzip, and left
uncompressed without gzip.

Matviews have been discarded from needing predicate locks since 3bf3ab8
and their introduction. At this point, there was no concurrent flavor
of REFRESH yet, hence there was no meaning in having materialized views
look at read/write conflicts with concurrent transactions using
themselves the serializable isolation level because they could only be
refreshed with an access exclusive lock. CONCURRENTLY, on the contrary,
allows reads and writes during a refresh as it holds a share update
exclusive lock.

The JOIN_SEMI case Assert'ed that there are no PlaceHolderVars that
need to be evaluated at the semijoin's RHS, which is wrong because
there could be some in the semijoin's qual condition. However, there
could not be any references further up than that, and within the qual
there is not any way that such a PHV could have gone to null yet, so
we don't really need the PHV and there is no need to avoid making the
RHS-removal optimization. The upshot is that there's no actual bug
in production code, and we ought to just remove this misguided Assert.
While we're here, also drop the JOIN_RIGHT case, which is dead code

This commit adds a basic set of authentication tests to check after the
new keywords added by a54b658 for the HBA and ident files, aka
"include", "include_if_exists" and "include_dir".
This includes checks for all the positive cases originally proposed,
where valid contents are generated for the HBA and ident files without
any errors happening in the server, checking as well the contents of
their respective system views. The error handling will be evaluated
separately (-DEXEC_BACKEND makes that trickier), and what we have here
covers most of the ground I would like to see covered if one manipulates
the tokenization logic of hba.c in the future.

pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf gain support for three record keywords:
- "include", to include a file.
- "include_if_exists", to include a file, ignoring it if missing.
- "include_dir", to include a directory of files. These are classified
by name (C locale, mostly) and need to be prefixed by ".conf", hence
following the same rules as GUCs.
This commit relies on the refactoring pieces done in efc9816, ad6c528,

Also, don't phrase the message to imply that there's only one

This switch impacts 9 patterns related to a SQL-mandated special syntax

- LOCALTIME [ ( typmod ) ]
- LOCALTIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_TIME [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_TIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_DATE
Five new entries are added to pg_proc to compensate the removal of
SQLValueFunction to provide backward-compatibility and making this
change transparent for the end-user (for example for the attribute
generated when a keyword is specified in a SELECT or in a FROM clause
without an alias, or when specifying something else than an Iconst to
the parser).
The parser included a set of checks coming from the files in charge of
holding the C functions used for the SQLValueFunction calls (as of
transformSQLValueFunction()), which are now moved within each function's
execution path, so this reduces the dependencies between the execution
and the parsing steps. As of this change, all the SQL keywords use the
same paths for their work, relying only on COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. Like

Commit 3d14e171e dropped regress_roleoption_donor twice and
regress_roleoption_protagonist not at all. Leaving roles behind
after "make installcheck" is unfriendly in its own right, plus
it causes repeated runs of "make installcheck" to fail.
Currently there is a race condition where if concurrent TAP tests both
test that they can open a port they will assume that it is free and use
it, causing one of them to fail. To prevent this we record a reservation
using an exclusive lock, and any TAP test that discovers a reservation
checks to see if the reserving process is still alive, and looks for
another free port if it is.
Ports are reserved in a directory set by the environment setting
PG_TEST_PORT_DIR, or if that doesn't exist a subdirectory of the top

Similar to how the INHERIT option controls whether or not the
permissions of the granted role are automatically available to the
grantee, the new SET permission controls whether or not the grantee
may use the SET ROLE command to assume the privileges of the granted
role.
In addition, the new SET permission controls whether or not it
is possible to transfer ownership of objects to the target role
or to create new objects owned by the target role using commands
such as CREATE DATABASE .. OWNER. We could alternatively have made
this controlled by the INHERIT option, or allow it when either
option is given. An advantage of this approach is that if you
are granted a predefined role with INHERIT TRUE, SET FALSE, you
can't go and create objects owned by that role.
The underlying theory here is that the ability to create objects
as a target role is not a privilege per se, and thus does not
depend on whether you inherit the target role's privileges. However,
it's surely something you could do anyway if you could SET ROLE
to the target role, and thus making it contingent on whether you
have that ability is reasonable.

As introduced in 006b69f, the order of the headers was incorrect.
However, it happens that lwlock.h can just be dropped from the list, so
let's be clean and remove it, fixing the order of the listed headers.
Commit 1cc29fe7c, which taught EXPLAIN to print PARAM_EXEC Params as
the referenced expressions, included some checks to prevent matching
Params found in SubPlans or InitPlans to NestLoopParams of upper query
levels. At the time, this seemed possibly necessary to avoid false
matches because of the planner's habit of re-using the same PARAM_EXEC
slot in multiple places in a plan. Furthermore, in the absence of
LATERAL no such reference could be valid anyway. But it's possible
now that we have LATERAL, and in the wake of 46c508fbc and 1db5667ba
I believe the false-match hazard is gone. Hence, remove the
in_same_plan_level checks. As shown in the regression test changes,
this provides a useful improvement in readability for EXPLAIN of
LATERAL-using subplans.

When all of the query's DISTINCT pathkeys have been marked as redundant
due to EquivalenceClasses existing which contain constants, we can just
implement the DISTINCT operation on a query by just limiting the number of
returned rows to 1 instead of performing a Unique on all of the matching
(duplicate) rows.
This applies in cases such as:
SELECT DISTINCT col,col2 FROM tab WHERE col = 1 AND col2 = 10;
If there are any matching rows, then they must all be {1,10}. There's no
point in fetching all of those and running a Unique operator on them to
leave only a single row. Here we effectively just find the first row and
then stop. We are obviously unable to apply this optimization if either
the col = 1 or col2 = 10 were missing from the WHERE clause or if there
were any additional columns in the SELECT clause.
Such queries are probably not all that common, but detecting when we can
apply this optimization amounts to checking if the distinct_pathkeys are
NULL, which is very cheap indeed.
Nothing is done here to check if the query already has a LIMIT clause. If
it does then the plan may end up with 2 Limits nodes. There's no harm in
that and it's probably not worth the complexity to unify them into a
single Limit node.

When we decide we need to make a derived clause equating a.x and
b.y, we already will re-use a previously-made clause "a.x = b.y".
But we might instead have "b.y = a.x", which is perfectly usable
because equivclass.c has never promised anything about the
operand order in clauses it builds. Saving construction of a
new RestrictInfo doesn't matter all that much in itself --- but
because we cache selectivity estimates and so on per-RestrictInfo,
there's a possibility of saving a fair amount of duplicative
effort downstream.
Hence, check for commutative matches as well as direct ones when
seeing if we have a pre-existing clause. This changes the visible
clause order in several regression test cases, but they're all
clearly-insignificant changes.
Checking for the reverse operand order is simple enough, but
if we wanted to check for operator OID match we'd need to call
get_commutator here, which is not so cheap. I concluded that
we don't really need the operator check anyway, so I just
removed it. It's unlikely that an opfamily contains more than
one applicable operator for a given pair of operand datatypes;
and if it does they had better give the same answers, so there
seems little need to insist that we use exactly the one
select_equality_operator chose.
Using the current core regression suite as a test case, I see
this change reducing the number of new join clauses built by
create_join_clause from 9673 to 5142 (out of 26652 calls).
So not quite 50% savings, but pretty close to it.

With only one file loaded currently, this is equivalent to the line

The new tests have been reporting a warning hidden in the logs, as of
"Odd number of elements in hash assignment" (perlcritic or similar did
not report an issue, actually). This comes down to a typo in the test
"matching regexp for username" for a double-quoted regexp using commas,
where we passed an extra argument. The test is intended to pass, but
this was causing the test to fail. This also pointed out that the
newly-added role "md5,role" lacks an entry in the password file used to
provide the password, so add one.
While on it, make the tests pickier by checking the contents of the logs
generated on successful authentication.
Oversights in 8fea868.
As of this commit, any database or user entry beginning with a slash (/)
is considered as a regular expression. This is particularly useful for
users, as now there is no clean way to match pattern on multiple HBA
lines. For example, a user name mapping with a regular expression needs
first to match with a HBA line, and we would skip the follow-up HBA
entries if the ident regexp does *not* match with what has matched in
the HBA line.
pg_hba.conf is able to handle multiple databases and roles with a
comma-separated list of these, hence individual regular expressions that
include commas need to be double-quoted.
At authentication time, user and database names are now checked in the
following order:
- Arbitrary keywords (like "all", the ones beginning by '+' for
membership check), that we know will never have a regexp. A fancy case
is for physical WAL senders, we *have* to only match "replication" for
the database.
- Regular expression matching.
- Exact match.
The previous logic did the same, but without the regexp step.
We have discussed as well the possibility to support regexp pattern
matching for host names, but these happen to lead to tricky issues based
on what I understand, particularly with host entries that have CIDRs.
This commit relies heavily on the refactoring done in a903971 and
fc579e1, so as the amount of code required to compile and execute
regular expressions is now minimal. When parsing pg_hba.conf, all the
computed regexps needs to explicitely free()'d, same as pg_ident.conf.
Documentation and TAP tests are added to cover this feature, including
cases where the regexps use commas (for clarity in the docs, coverage
for the parsing logic in the tests).
Note that this introduces a breakage with older versions, where a
database or user name beginning with a slash are treated as something to
check for an equal match. Per discussion, we have discarded this as
being much of an issue in practice as it would require a cluster to
have database and/or role names that begin with a slash, as well as HBA
entries using these. Hence, the consistency gained with regexps in
pg_ident.conf is more appealing in the long term.

Various test suites use the "openssl" program as part of their setup.
There isn't a way to override which openssl program is to be used,
other than by fiddling with the path, perhaps. This has gotten
increasingly problematic because different versions of openssl have
different capabilities and do different things by default.
This patch checks for an openssl binary in configure and meson setup,
with appropriate ways to override it. This is similar to how "lz4"
and "zstd" are handled, for example. The meson build system actually
already did this, but the result was only used in some places. This
is now applied more uniformly.

This makes the choice of result scale of numeric power() for integer
exponents consistent with the choice for non-integer exponents, and
with the result scale of other numeric functions. Specifically, the
result scale will be at least as large as the scale of either input,
and sufficient to ensure that the result has at least 16 significant
digits.
Formerly, the result scale was based only on the scale of the first
input, without taking into account the weight of the result. For
results with negative weight, that could lead to results with very few
or even no non-zero significant digits (e.g., 10.0 ^ (-18) produced
0.0000000000000000).
Fix this by moving responsibility for the choice of result scale into
power_var_int(), which already has code to estimate the result weight.
Per report by Adrian Klaver and suggested fix by Tom Lane.
No back-patch -- arguably this is a bug fix, but one which is easy to
work around, so it doesn't seem worth the risk of changing query

As currently designed, with a callback registered in a ERROR_CLEANUP
block, the shutdown callback would get called twice when updating
archive_library on SIGHUP, which is something that we want to avoid to
ease the life of extension writers.
Anyway, an ERROR in the archiver process is treated as a FATAL, stopping
it immediately, hence there is no need for a ERROR_CLEANUP block.
Instead of that, the shutdown callback is not called upon
before_shmem_exit(), giving to the modules the opportunity to do any
cleanup actions before the server shuts down its subsystems.
While on it, this commit adds some testing coverage for the shutdown
callback. Neither shell_archive nor basic_archive have been using it,
and one is added to shell_archive, whose trigger is checked in a TAP
test through a shutdown sequence.

When creating a cast that uses a conversion function, we've
historically allowed the input and result types to be
binary-compatible with the function's input and result types,
rather than necessarily being identical. This means that the new
cast is logically dependent on the binary-compatible cast or casts
that it references: if those are defined by pg_cast entries, and you
try to restore the new cast without having defined them, it'll fail.
Hence, we should make pg_depend entries to record these dependencies
so that pg_dump knows that there is an ordering requirement.
This is not the only place where we allow such shortcuts; aggregate
functions for example are similarly lax, and in principle should gain
similar dependencies. However, for now it seems sufficient to fix
the cast-versus-cast case, as pg_dump's other ordering heuristics
should keep it out of trouble for other object types.
Per report from David Turoň; thanks also to Robert Haas for
preliminary investigation. I considered back-patching, but
seeing that this issue has existed for many years without

If the non-recursive term of a SEARCH BREADTH FIRST recursive
query has only constants in its target list, the planner will
fold the starting RowExpr added by rewrite into a simple Const
of type RECORD. The executor doesn't have any problem with
that --- but EXPLAIN VERBOSE will encounter the Const as the
ultimate source of truth about what the field names of the
SET column are, and it didn't know what to do with that.
Fortunately, we can pull the identifying typmod out of the
Const, in much the same way that record_out would.
For reasons that remain a bit obscure to me, this only fails
with SEARCH BREADTH FIRST, not SEARCH DEPTH FIRST or CYCLE.
But I added regression test cases for both of those options
too, just to make sure we don't break it in future.

It can be useful to know when a relation has last been used, e.g., when
evaluating whether an index is still required. It was already possible to
infer the time of the last usage by tracking, e.g.,
pg_stat_all_indexes.idx_scan over time. But far from everybody does so.
To make it easier to detect the last time a relation has been scanned, track
that time in each relation's pgstat entry. To minimize overhead a) the
timestamp is updated only when the backend pending stats entry is flushed to
shared stats b) the last transaction's stop timestamp is used as the
timestamp.

DEFAULT markers appearing in an INSERT on an updatable view
could be mis-processed if they were in a multi-row VALUES clause.
This would lead to strange errors such as "cache lookup failed
for type NNNN", or in older branches even to crashes.
The cause is that commit 41531e42d tried to re-use rewriteValuesRTE()
to remove any SetToDefault nodes (that hadn't previously been replaced
by the view's own default values) appearing in "product" queries,
that is DO ALSO queries. That's fundamentally wrong because the
DO ALSO queries might not even be INSERTs; and even if they are,
their targetlists don't necessarily match the view's column list,
so that almost all the logic in rewriteValuesRTE() is inapplicable.
What we want is a narrow focus on replacing any such nodes with NULL
constants. (That is, in this context we are interpreting the defaults
as being strictly those of the view itself; and we already replaced
any that aren't NULL.) We could add still more !force_nulls tests
to further lobotomize rewriteValuesRTE(); but it seems cleaner to
split out this case to a new function, restoring rewriteValuesRTE()
to the charter it had before.

There are a number of bugs in this area. Two of them are fixed here,
namely:
1. get_relation_idx_constraint_oid does not restrict the type of
constraint that's returned, so with sufficient bad luck it can
return the OID of a foreign key constraint. This has the effect that
a primary key in a partition can end up as a child of a foreign key,
which makes no sense (it needs to be the child of the equivalent
primary key.)
Change the API contract so that only index-backed constraints are
returned, mimicking get_constraint_index().
2. Both CloneFkReferenced and CloneFkReferencing clone a
self-referencing foreign key, so the partition ends up with
a duplicate foreign key. Change the former function to ignore such
constraints.
Add some tests to verify that things are better now. (However, these
new tests show some additional misbehavior that will be fixed later --
namely that there's a constraint marked NOT VALID.)

MemoryContextContains is no longer reliable in the wake of c6e0fe1f2,
so we need to get rid of these uses.
It appears that there's no really good reason to force the result of
an aggregate's finalfn or serialfn to be allocated in the per-tuple
context. The only other plausible case is that the result points to
or into the aggregate's transition value, and that's fine because it
will last as long as we need it to. (This conclusion depends on the
assumption that finalfns are not allowed to scribble on the transition
value, but we've long required that.) So we can just drop the
MemoryContextContains plus datumCopy business, although we do need
to take care to not return a read-write pointer when the transition
value is an expanded datum.
Likewise, we don't really need to force the result of a window
function to be in the output context. In this case, the plausible
alternative is that it's pointing into the temporary tuple slot used
by WinGetFuncArgInPartition or WinGetFuncArgInFrame (since those
functions could return such a pointer, which might become the window
function's result). That will hold still for long enough, unless
there is another window function using the same WindowObject.
I'm content to always perform a datumCopy when there's more than one
such function.
On net, these changes should provide small speed improvements as well
as removing problematic code.

This reverts commit db0d67db24 and
several follow-on fixes. The idea of making a cost-based choice
of the order of the sorting columns is not fundamentally unsound,
but it requires cost information and data statistics that we don't
really have. For example, relying on procost to distinguish the
relative costs of different sort comparators is pretty pointless
so long as most such comparator functions are labeled with cost 1.0.
Moreover, estimating the number of comparisons done by Quicksort
requires more than just an estimate of the number of distinct values
in the input: you also need some idea of the sizes of the larger
groups, if you want an estimate that's good to better than a factor of
three or so. That's data that's often unknown or not very reliable.
Worse, to arrive at estimates of the number of calls made to the
lower-order-column comparison functions, the code needs to make
estimates of the numbers of distinct values of multiple columns,
which are necessarily even less trustworthy than per-column stats.
Even if all the inputs are perfectly reliable, the cost algorithm
as-implemented cannot offer useful information about how to order
sorting columns beyond the point at which the average group size
is estimated to drop to 1.
Close inspection of the code added by db0d67db2 shows that there
are also multiple small bugs. These could have been fixed, but
there's not much point if we don't trust the estimates to be
accurate in-principle.
Finally, the changes in cost_sort's behavior made for very large
changes (often a factor of 2 or so) in the cost estimates for all
sorting operations, not only those for multi-column GROUP BY.
That naturally changes plan choices in many situations, and there's
precious little evidence to show that the changes are for the better.
Given the above doubts about whether the new estimates are really
trustworthy, it's hard to summon much confidence that these changes
are better on the average.
Since we're hard up against the release deadline for v15, let's
revert these changes for now. We can always try again later.

Up to now, the ID values returned by pg_stat_get_backend_idset() and
used by pg_stat_get_backend_activity() and allied functions were just
indexes into a local array of sessions seen by the last stats refresh.
This is problematic for a few reasons. The "ID" of a session can vary
over its existence, which is surprising. Also, while these numbers
often match the "backend ID" used for purposes like temp schema
assignment, that isn't reliably true. We can fairly cheaply switch
things around to make these numbers actually be the sessions' backend
IDs. The added test case illustrates that with this definition, the
temp schema used by a given session can be obtained given its PID.
While here, delete some dead code that guarded against getting
a NULL return from pgstat_fetch_stat_local_beentry(). That can't

There are still some alignment-related failures in the buildfarm,
which might or might not be able to be fixed quickly, but I've also
just realized that it increased the size of many WAL records by 4 bytes
because a block reference contains a RelFileLocator. The effect of that
hasn't been studied or discussed, so revert for now.
RelFileNumbers are now assigned using a separate counter, instead of
being assigned from the OID counter. This counter never wraps around:
if all 2^56 possible RelFileNumbers are used, an internal error
occurs. As the cluster is limited to 2^64 total bytes of WAL, this
limitation should not cause a problem in practice.
If the counter were 64 bits wide rather than 56 bits wide, we would
need to increase the width of the BufferTag, which might adversely
impact buffer lookup performance. Also, this lets us use bigint for
pg_class.relfilenode and other places where these values are exposed
at the SQL level without worrying about overflow.
This should remove the need to keep "tombstone" files around until
the next checkpoint when relations are removed. We do that to keep
RelFileNumbers from being recycled, but now that won't happen
anyway. However, this patch doesn't actually change anything in
this area; it just makes it possible for a future patch to do so.

Previously, the transaction-property GUCs such as transaction_isolation
could be reset after starting a transaction, because we marked them
as GUC_NO_RESET_ALL but still allowed a targeted RESET. That leads to
assertion failures or worse, because those properties aren't supposed
to change after we've acquired a transaction snapshot.
There are some NO_RESET_ALL variables for which RESET is okay, so
we can't just redefine the semantics of that flag. Instead introduce
a separate GUC_NO_RESET flag. Mark "seed", as well as the transaction
property GUCs, as GUC_NO_RESET.
We have to disallow GUC_ACTION_SAVE as well as straight RESET, because
otherwise a function having a "SET transaction_isolation" clause can
still break things: the end-of-function restore action is equivalent
to a RESET.
No back-patch, as it's conceivable that someone is doing something
this patch will forbid (like resetting one of these GUCs at transaction
start, or "CREATE FUNCTION ... SET transaction_read_only = 1") and not

Commit 25936fd46 adjusted things so that the "storeslot" we use
for remapping trigger tuples would have adequate lifespan, but it
neglected to consider the lifespan of the tuple descriptor that
the slot depends on. It turns out that in at least some cases, the
tupdesc we are passing is a refcounted tupdesc, and the refcount for
the slot's reference can get assigned to a resource owner having
different lifespan than the slot does. That leads to an error like
"tupdesc reference 0x7fdef236a1b8 is not owned by resource owner
SubTransaction". Worse, because of a second oversight in the same
commit, we'd try to free the same tupdesc refcount again while
cleaning up after that error, leading to recursive errors and an
"ERRORDATA_STACK_SIZE exceeded" PANIC.
To fix the initial problem, let's just make a non-refcounted copy
of the tupdesc we're supposed to use. That seems likely to guard
against additional problems, since there's no strong reason for
this code to assume that what it's given is a refcounted tupdesc;
in which case there's an independent hazard of the tupdesc having
shorter lifespan than the slot does. (I didn't bother trying to
free said copy, since it should go away anyway when the (sub)
transaction context is cleaned up.)
The other issue can be fixed by making the code added to
AfterTriggerFreeQuery work like the rest of that function, ie be
sure that it doesn't try to free the same slot twice in the event
of recursive error cleanup.
While here, also clean up minor stylistic issues in the test case
added by 25936fd46: don't use "create or replace function", as any
name collision within the tests is likely to have ill effects
that that won't mask; and don't use function names as generic as
trigger_function1, especially if you're not going to drop them

Commit 4fb5c794e intended to add coverage of some ambuildempty
methods that were not getting reached, without removing any
test coverage. However, by changing a temp table to unlogged
it managed to negate the intent of 4c51a2d1e, which means that
we didn't have reliable test coverage of ginvacuum.c anymore.
As things stand, much of that file might or might not get reached
depending on timing, which seems pretty undesirable.
Although this is only clearly broken for the GIN test, it seems
best to revert 4fb5c794e altogether and instead add bespoke test
cases covering unlogged indexes for these four AMs. We don't
need to do very much with them, so the extra tests are cheap.
(Note that btree, hash, and bloom already have similar test cases,
so they need no additional work.)
We can also undo dec8ad367. Since the testing deficiency that that
hacked around was later fixed by 2f2e24d90, let's intentionally leave
an unlogged table behind to improve test coverage in the modules that
use the regression database for other test purposes. (The case I used
also leaves an unlogged sequence behind.)
Per report from Alex Kozhemyakin. Back-patch to v15 where the
faulty test came in.

Because index creation does not go through heap_create_with_catalog() we
didn't call pgstat_create_relation(), leading to index stats of a newly
created realtion not getting dropped during rollback. To fix, move the
pgstat_create_relation() to heap_create(), which indexes do use.
Similarly, because dropping an index does not go through
heap_drop_with_catalog(), we didn't drop index stats when the transaction
dropping an index committed. Here there's no convenient common path for
indexes and relations, so index_drop() now calls pgstat_drop_relation().
Add tests for transactional index stats handling.

The extended query protocol implementation I added in commit
acb7e4eb6b has bugs when used in pipeline mode. Rather than spend
more time trying to fix it, remove that code and make the function rely
on simple query protocol only, meaning it can no longer be used in
pipeline mode.
Users can easily change their applications to use PQsendQueryParams
instead. We leave PQsendQuery in place for Postgres 14, just in case
somebody is using it and has not hit the mentioned bugs; but we should

We previously thought that allowing such cases can confuse users when they
specify DROP TABLES IN SCHEMA but that doesn't seem to be the case based
on discussion. This helps to uplift the restriction during
ALTER TABLE ... SET SCHEMA which used to ensure that we couldn't end up
with a publication having both a schema and the same schema's table.
To allow this, we need to forbid having any schema on a publication if
column lists on a table are specified (and vice versa). This is because
otherwise we still need a restriction during ALTER TABLE ... SET SCHEMA to
forbid cases where it could lead to a publication having both a schema and
the same schema's table with column list.

This may be a bit too subtle, but removing that word from there makes
this clause no longer a perfect parallel of the GRANT variant "ALL
TABLES IN SCHEMA": indeed, for publications what we record is the schema
itself, not the tables therein, which means that any tables added to the

Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle
it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow
incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for
developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other
issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together
they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system.
After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a
good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects.
We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of
the new build system and mature it in tree.
This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports
building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For
Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for
incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but
building slower).
Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM
bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits
requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only
extensions) are not yet addressed.
When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual
studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support
MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism.
The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon
after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the
autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at
least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported
versions build with meson.

The motivation for this is twofold. For one the meson patchset would like to
have more control over the logfiles. For another, the log file location for
tap tests (tmp_check/log) is not symmetric to the log location for
pg_regress/isolation tests (log/).
This commit does not change the default location for log files for tap tests,

This is motivated by the meson patchset, which wants to put the log / data for
tests in a different place than the autoconf build. Right now log files for
tap tests have to be inside $TESTDIR/tmp_check, whereas log files for
pg_regress/isolationtester are outside of tmp_check. This change doesn't fix
the latter, but is a prerequisite.
The only test that needs adjustment is 010_tab_completion.pl, as it hardcoded
the tmp_check/ directory. Instead create a dedicated directory for the test
files. It's also a bit cleaner independently, because it doesn't intermingle
the test files with more important things like the log/ directory.

The oldest vendor-shipped Perl in the buildfarm is 5.14.2, which is
the last version that Debian Wheezy shipped. That OS is EOL, but we
keep it running because there is no other convenient way to test certain
non-mainstream 32-bit platforms. There is no bugfix in the 5.14.2 release
that is required, and yet it's also not the latest minor release --
that would be 5.14.4. To clarify the situation, we have thus arranged the
buildfarm to test 5.14.0. That allows configure scripts and documentation
to state 5.14 without fine print.
The MSVC build didn't check the version, since our previous minimum 5.8.3
was considered too old to check for on Windows. We will need a check for
Windows sometime during the v16 cycle, but that could be rendered moot
by the impending Meson conversion, so it seems safe to just document

guc.c has grown to be one of our largest .c files, making it
a bottleneck for compilation. It's also acquired a bunch of
knowledge that'd be better kept elsewhere, because of our not
very good habit of putting variable-specific check hooks here.
Hence, split it up along these lines:
* guc.c itself retains just the core GUC housekeeping mechanisms.
* New file guc_funcs.c contains the SET/SHOW interfaces and some
SQL-accessible functions for GUC manipulation.
* New file guc_tables.c contains the data arrays that define the
built-in GUC variables, along with some already-exported constant
tables.
* GUC check/assign/show hook functions are moved to the variable's
home module, whenever that's clearly identifiable. A few hard-
to-classify hooks ended up in commands/variable.c, which was
already a home for miscellaneous GUC hook functions.
To avoid cluttering a lot more header files with #include "guc.h",
I also invented a new header file utils/guc_hooks.h and put all
the GUC hook functions' declarations there, regardless of their
originating module. That allowed removal of #include "guc.h"
from some existing headers. The fallout from that (hopefully
all caught here) demonstrates clearly why such inclusions are
best minimized: there are a lot of files that, for example,
were getting array.h at two or more levels of remove, despite
not having any connection at all to GUCs in themselves.
There is some very minor code beautification here, such as
renaming a couple of inconsistently-named hook functions
and improving some comments. But mostly this just moves
code from point A to point B and deals with the ensuing
needs for #include adjustments and exporting a few functions
that previously weren't exported.
Patch by me, per a suggestion from Andres Freund; thanks also
to Michael Paquier for the idea to invent guc_funcs.c.

The test case introduces a revoked UTF-8 certificate. This requires the

More than twenty years ago (79fcde48b), we hacked the postmaster
to avoid a core-dump on systems that didn't support fflush(NULL).
We've mostly, though not completely, hewed to that rule ever since.
But such systems are surely gone in the wild, so in the spirit of
cleaning out no-longer-needed portability hacks let's get rid of
multiple per-file fflush() calls in favor of using fflush(NULL).
Also, we were fairly inconsistent about whether to fflush() before
popen() and system() calls. While we've received no bug reports
about that, it seems likely that at least some of these call sites
are at risk of odd behavior, such as error messages appearing in
an unexpected order. Rather than expend a lot of brain cells
figuring out which places are at hazard, let's just establish a
uniform coding rule that we should fflush(NULL) before these calls.
A no-op fflush() is surely of trivial cost compared to launching
a sub-process via a shell; while if it's not a no-op then we likely
need it.

The GRANT statement can now specify WITH INHERIT TRUE or WITH

role's permissions. For symmetry, you can now likewise write
WITH ADMIN TRUE or WITH ADMIN FALSE to turn ADMIN OPTION on or off.
If a GRANT does not specify WITH INHERIT, the behavior based on
whether the member role is marked INHERIT or NOINHERIT. This means
that if all roles are marked INHERIT or NOINHERIT before any role
grants are performed, the behavior is identical to what we had before;
otherwise, it's different, because ALTER ROLE [NO]INHERIT now only

Previously, membership of role A in role B could be recorded in the
catalog tables only once. This meant that a new grant of role A to
role B would overwrite the previous grant. For other object types, a
new grant of permission on an object - in this case role A - exists
along side the existing grant provided that the grantor is different.
Either grant can be revoked independently of the other, and
permissions remain so long as at least one grant remains. Make role
grants work similarly.
Previously, when granting membership in a role, the superuser could
specify any role whatsoever as the grantor, but for other object types,
the grantor of record must be either the owner of the object, or a
role that currently has privileges to perform a similar GRANT.
Implement the same scheme for role grants, treating the bootstrap
superuser as the role owner since roles do not have owners. This means
that attempting to revoke a grant, or admin option on a grant, can now
fail if there are dependent privileges, and that CASCADE can be used
to revoke these. It also means that you can't grant ADMIN OPTION on
a role back to a user who granted it directly or indirectly to you,
similar to how you can't give WITH GRANT OPTION on a privilege back
to a role which granted it directly or indirectly to you.
Previously, only the superuser could specify GRANTED BY with a user
other than the current user. Relax that rule to allow the grantor
to be any role whose privileges the current user posseses. This
doesn't improve compatibility with what we do for other object types,
where support for GRANTED BY is entirely vestigial, but it makes this
feature more usable and seems to make sense to change at the same time
we're changing related behaviors.
Along the way, fix "ALTER GROUP group_name ADD USER user_name" to
require the same privileges as "GRANT group_name TO user_name".
Previously, CREATEROLE privileges were sufficient for either, but
only the former form was permissible with ADMIN OPTION on the role.
Now, either CREATEROLE or ADMIN OPTION on the role suffices for
either spelling.

Previously, "GRANT foo TO bar" or "GRANT foo TO bar GRANTED BY baz"
would record the OID of the grantor in pg_auth_members.grantor, but
that role could later be dropped without modifying or removing the
pg_auth_members record. That's not great, because we typically try
to avoid dangling references in catalog data.
Now, a role grant depends on the grantor, and the grantor can't be
dropped without removing the grant or changing the grantor. "DROP
OWNED BY" will remove the grant, just as it does for other kinds of
privileges. "REASSIGN OWNED BY" will not, again just like what we do
in other cases involving privileges.
pg_auth_members now has an OID column, because that is needed in order
for dependencies to work. It also now has an index on the grantor
column, because otherwise dropping a role would require a sequential
scan of the entire table to see whether the role's OID is in use as
a grantor. That probably wouldn't be too large a problem in practice,
but it seems better to have an index just in case.

When creating a partitioned index, DefineIndex tries to identify
any existing indexes on the partitions that match the partitioned
index, so that it can absorb those as child indexes instead of
building new ones. Part of the matching is to compare IndexInfo
structs --- but that wasn't done quite right. We're comparing
the IndexInfo built within DefineIndex itself to one made from
existing catalog contents by BuildIndexInfo. Notably, while
BuildIndexInfo will run index expressions and predicates through
expression preprocessing, that has not happened to DefineIndex's
struct. The result is failure to match and subsequent creation
of duplicate indexes.
The easiest and most bulletproof fix is to build a new IndexInfo
using BuildIndexInfo, thereby guaranteeing that the processing done
is identical.
While here, let's also extract the opfamily and collation data
from the new partitioned index, removing ad-hoc logic that
duplicated knowledge about how those are constructed.
Per report from Christophe Pettus. Back-patch to v11 where
we invented partitioned indexes.

Make build_joinrel_tlist() responsible for adding PHVs that were
already computed in one or the other input relation, and therefore
change add_placeholders_to_joinrel() to only add PHVs that will be
newly computed in this joinrel's output. This makes the handling
of PHVs in build_joinrel_tlist() more like its handling of plain
Vars, which seems like a good thing on intelligibility grounds
and will simplify planned future changes. There is a purely
cosmetic side-effect that the order of entries in the joinrel's
tlist may change; but since it becomes more like the order of
entries in the input tlists, that's not bad.
The reason it wasn't done like this originally was the potential
cost of looking up PlaceHolderInfo entries to consult ph_needed.
Now that that's O(1) it shouldn't hurt.

The standard way to check for list emptiness is to compare the
List pointer to NIL; our list code goes out of its way to ensure
that that is the only representation of an empty list. (An
acceptable alternative is a plain boolean test for non-null
pointer, but explicit mention of NIL is usually preferable.)
Various places didn't get that memo and expressed the condition
with list_length(), which might not be so bad except that there
were such a variety of ways to check it exactly: equal to zero,
less than or equal to zero, less than one, yadda yadda. In the
name of code readability, let's standardize all those spellings
as "list == NIL" or "list != NIL". (There's probably some
microscopic efficiency gain too, though few of these look to be
at all performance-critical.)
A very small number of cases were left as-is because they seemed
more consistent with other adjacent list_length tests that way.

Since HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS is now defined unconditionally, remove the macro
and drop a small amount of dead code.
The last known systems not to have them (as far as I know at least) were
QNX, which we de-supported years ago, and Windows, which now has them.
If a new OS ever shows up with the POSIX sockets API but without working
AF_UNIX, it'll presumably still be able to compile the code, and fail at
runtime with an unsupported address family error. We might want to
consider adding a HINT that you should turn off the option to use it if
your network stack doesn't support it at that point, but it doesn't seem
worth making the relevant code conditional at compile time.
Also adjust a couple of places in the docs and comments that referred to
builds without Unix-domain sockets, since there aren't any. Windows
still gets a special mention in those places, though, because we don't
try to use them by default there yet.

the datum's R/W property as license to scribble on it, then later

Previously, if an extension script did CREATE OR REPLACE and there was
an existing object not belonging to the extension, it would overwrite
the object and adopt it into the extension. This is problematic, first
because the overwrite is probably unintentional, and second because we
didn't change the object's ownership. Thus a hostile user could create
an object in advance of an expected CREATE EXTENSION command, and would
then have ownership rights on an extension object, which could be
modified for trojan-horse-type attacks.
Hence, forbid CREATE OR REPLACE of an existing object unless it already
belongs to the extension. (Note that we've always forbidden replacing
an object that belongs to some other extension; only the behavior for
previously-free-standing objects changes here.)
For the same reason, also fail CREATE IF NOT EXISTS when there is

Since v14, the extended stats machinery will try to estimate for
otherwise-unsupported boolean expressions if they match an expression
available from an extended stats object. mcv.c did not get the memo
about this, and would spit up with "unknown clause type". Fortunately
the case is easy to handle, since we can expect the expression yields
boolean.
While here, replace some not-terribly-on-point assertions with
simpler runtime tests for lookup failure. That seems appropriate
so that we get an elog not a crash if we somehow get to the new

statext_is_compatible_clause_internal() checked that the arguments
of a ScalarArrayOpExpr are one Var and one Const, but it would allow
cases where the Const was on the left. Subsequent uses of the clause
are not expecting that and would suffer assertion failures or core
dumps. mcv.c also had not bothered to cope with the case of a NULL
array constant, which seems really unacceptably sloppy of somebody.
(Although our tools failed us there too, since AFAIK neither Coverity
nor any compiler warned of the obvious use-of-uninitialized-variable
condition.) It seems best to handle that by having
statext_is_compatible_clause_internal() reject it.
Noted while fixing bug #17570. Back-patch to v13 where the
extended stats code grew some awareness of ScalarArrayOpExpr.
Commit a4d75c86b improved the extended-stats logic to allow extended
stats to be collected on expressions not just bare Vars. To apply
such stats, we first verify that the user has permissions to read all
columns used in the stats. (If not, the query will likely fail at
runtime, but the planner ought not do so.) That had to get extended
to check permissions of columns appearing within such expressions,
but the code for that was completely wrong: it applied pull_varattnos
to the wrong pointer, leading to "unrecognized node type" failures.
Furthermore, although you couldn't get to this because of that bug,
it failed to account for the attnum offset applied by pull_varattnos.
This escaped recognition so far because the code in question is not
reached when the user has whole-table SELECT privilege (which is the
common case), and because only subexpressions not specially handled
by statext_is_compatible_clause_internal() are at risk.
I think a large part of the reason for this bug is under-documentation
of what statext_is_compatible_clause() is doing and what its arguments
are, so do some work on the comments to try to improve that.

Having additional triggers in a test table made the ORDER BY clauses in
old queries underspecified. Add another column there for stability.
Per sporadic buildfarm pink.
Using ATSimpleRecursion() in ATPrepCmd() to do so as bbb927b4db did is
not correct, because ATPrepCmd() can't distinguish between triggers that
may be cloned and those that may not, so would wrongly try to recurse
for the latter category of triggers.
So this commit restores the code in EnableDisableTrigger() that
86f575948c had added to do the recursion, which would do it only for
triggers that may be cloned, that is, row-level triggers. This also
changes tablecmds.c such that ATExecCmd() is able to pass the value of
ONLY flag down to EnableDisableTrigger() using its new 'recurse'
parameter.
This also fixes what seems like an oversight of 86f575948c that the
recursion to partition triggers would only occur if EnableDisableTrigger()
had actually changed the trigger. It is more apt to recurse to inspect
partition triggers even if the parent's trigger didn't need to be
changed: only then can we be certain that all descendants share the same
state afterwards.

The sto_using_cursor and sto_using_select tests were coded to exercise

about six seconds, thanks to the "pg_sleep(6)". Perhaps we could
reduce that, but the useless permutations seem worth getting rid of
in any case. (Note that sto_using_hash_index got it right already.)
While here, clean up some other sloppiness such as an unused table.
This doesn't make too much difference in interactive testing, since the
wasted time is typically masked by parallelization with other tests.

Previously, a byte with the high bit set was just transmitted
as-is by charin() and charout(). This is problematic if the
database encoding is multibyte, because the result of charout()
won't be validly encoded, which breaks various stuff that
expects all text strings to be validly encoded. We've
previously decided to enforce encoding validity rather than try
to individually harden each place that might have a problem with
such strings, so it's time to do something about "char".
To fix, represent high-bit-set characters as \ooo (backslash
and three octal digits), following the ancient "escape" format
for bytea. charin() will continue to accept the old way as well,
though that is only reachable in single-byte encodings.

ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggreagtes have, since implemented in Postgres, been
executed by always performing a sort in nodeAgg.c to sort the tuples in
the current group into the correct order before calling the transition
function on the sorted tuples. This was not great as often there might be
an index that could have provided pre-sorted input and allowed the
transition functions to be called as the rows come in, rather than having
to store them in a tuplestore in order to sort them once all the tuples
for the group have arrived.
Here we change the planner so it requests a path with a sort order which
supports the most amount of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregate functions and
add new code to the executor to allow it to support the processing of
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates where the tuples are already sorted in the
correct order.
Since there can be many ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates in any given query
level, it's very possible that we can't find an order that suits all of
these aggregates. The sort order that the planner chooses is simply the
one that suits the most aggregate functions. We take the most strictly
sorted variation of each order and see how many aggregate functions can
use that, then we try again with the order of the remaining aggregates to
see if another order would suit more aggregate functions. For example:
SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY a,b) ...
would request the sort order to be {a, b} because {a} is a subset of the
sort order of {a,b}, but;
SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY c) ...
would just pick a plan ordered by {a} (we give precedence to aggregates
which are earlier in the targetlist).
SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY b),agg3(a ORDER BY b) ...
would choose to order by {b} since two aggregates suit that vs just one
that requires input ordered by {a}.

The select_outer_pathkeys_for_merge function made an attempt to build the
merge join pathkeys in the same order as query_pathkeys. This was done as
it may have led to no sort being required for an ORDER BY or GROUP BY
clause in the upper planner. However, this restriction seems overly
strict as it required that we match the query_pathkeys entirely or we
don't bother putting the merge join pathkeys in that order.
Here we relax this rule so that we use a prefix of the query_pathkeys
providing that prefix matches all of the join quals. This may provide the
upper planner with partially sorted input which will allow the use of
incremental sorts instead of full sorts.

Crash recovery on standby may encounter missing directories
when replaying database-creation WAL records. Prior to this
patch, the standby would fail to recover in such a case;
however, the directories could be legitimately missing.
Consider the following sequence of commands:
CREATE DATABASE
DROP DATABASE
DROP TABLESPACE
If, after replaying the last WAL record and removing the
tablespace directory, the standby crashes and has to replay the
create database record again, crash recovery must be able to continue.
A fix for this problem was already attempted in 49d9cfc68b, but it
was reverted because of design issues. This new version is based
on Robert Haas' proposal: any missing tablespaces are created
during recovery before reaching consistency. Tablespaces
are created as real directories, and should be deleted
by later replay. CheckRecoveryConsistency ensures
they have disappeared.
The problems detected by this new code are reported as PANIC,
except when allow_in_place_tablespaces is set to ON, in which
case they are WARNING. Apart from making tests possible, this
gives users an escape hatch in case things don't go as planned.

As before, we start by prepending one underscore (truncating the
base name if necessary). But if there is a conflict, then instead of
prepending more and more underscores, append an underscore and some
digits, in much the same way that ChooseRelationName does. While
the previous logic could be driven to fail by creating a lot of
types with long names differing only near the end, this version seems
certain enough to eventually succeed that we can remove the failure
code path that was there before.
While at it, undo 6df7a9698's decision to split this code out of
makeArrayTypeName. That wasn't actually accomplishing anything,
because no other function was using it --- and it would have been
wrong to do so. The convention that a prefix "_" means an array,
not something else, is too ancient to mess with.

This addresses a couple of bugs in the REINDEX grammar, introduced by
83011ce:
- A name was never specified for DATABASE/SYSTEM, even if the query
included one. This caused such REINDEX queries to always work with any
object name, but we should complain if the object name specified does
not match the name of the database we are connected to. A test is added
for this case in the main regression test suite, provided by Álvaro.
- REINDEX SYSTEM CONCURRENTLY [name] was getting rejected in the
parser. Concurrent rebuilds are not supported for catalogs but the
error provided at execution time is more helpful for the user, and
allowing this flavor results in a simplification of the parsing logic.
- REINDEX DATABASE CONCURRENTLY was rebuilding the index in a
non-concurrent way, as the option was not being appended correctly in
the list of DefElems in ReindexStmt (REINDEX (CONCURRENTLY) DATABASE was
working fine. A test is added in the TAP tests of reindexdb for this
case, where we already have a REINDEX DATABASE CONCURRENTLY query
running on a small-ish instance. This relies on the work done in
2cbc3c1 for SYSTEM, but here we check if the OIDs of the index relations
match or not after the concurrent rebuild. Note that in order to get
this part to work, I had to tweak the tests so as the index OID and
names are saved separately. This change not affect the reliability or
of the coverage of the existing tests.
While on it, I have implemented a tweak in the grammar to reduce the
parsing by one branch, simplifying things even more.

The setting controls tha maximum length of the header line in expanded
format output. Possible settings are full, column, page, or an integer.
the default is full, the current behaviour, and in this case the header
line is the length of the widest line of output. column causes the
header to be truncated to the width of the first column, page causes it
to be truncated to the width of the terminal page, and an integer causes
it to be truncated to that value. If the full value is less than the
page or integer value no truncation occurs. If given without an argument
this option prints its current setting.

Commit e2f65f425 added contrib/pg_prewarm to the prerequisites for
running the src/test/recovery suite, but did not bother to update
the documentation about that.
The dependency logic failed to register a column-level dependency
when a view or rule contains a reference to a specific column of
the result of a function-returning-composite. That meant you could
drop the column from the composite type, causing trouble for future
executions of the view. We've known about this for years, but never
summoned the energy to actually fix it, instead installing various
low-level defenses to prevent crashing on references to dropped columns.
We had to do that to plug the hole in stable branches, where there might
be pre-existing broken references; but let's fix the root cause today.
To do that, add some logic (borrowed from get_rte_attribute_is_dropped)
to find_expr_references_walker, to check whether a Var referencing an
RTE_FUNCTION RTE is referencing a column of a composite type, and if
so add the proper dependency.
However ... it seems mighty unwise to remove said low-level defenses,
since there could be other bugs now or in the future that allow
reaching them. By the same token, letting those defenses go untested
seems unwise. Hence, rather than just dropping the associated test
cases, hack them to continue working by the expedient of manually
dropping the pg_depend entries that this fix installs.
Back-patch into v15. I don't want to risk changing this behavior
in stable branches, but it seems not too late for v15. (Since
we have already forced initdb for beta3, we can be sure that all
production v15 installations will have these added dependencies.)

Due to lack of concern for the case in the dependency code, it's
possible to drop a column of a composite type even though stored
queries have references to the dropped column via functions-in-FROM
that return the composite type. There are "soft" references,
namely FROM-clause aliases for such columns, and "hard" references,
that is actual Vars referring to them. The right fix for hard
references is to add dependencies preventing the drop; something
we've known for many years and not done (and this commit still doesn't
address it). A "soft" reference shouldn't prevent a drop though.
We've been around on this before (cf. 9b35ddce9, 2c4debbd0), but
nobody had noticed that the current behavior can result in dump/reload
failures, because ruleutils.c can print more column aliases than the
underlying composite type now has. So we need to rejigger the
column-alias-handling code to treat such columns as dropped and not
print aliases for them.
Rather than writing new code for this, I used expandRTE() which already
knows how to figure out which function result columns are dropped.
I'd initially thought maybe we could use expandRTE() in all cases, but
that fails for EXPLAIN's purposes, because the planner strips a lot of
RTE infrastructure that expandRTE() needs. So this patch just uses it
for unplanned function RTEs and otherwise does things the old way.
If there is a hard reference (Var), then removing the column alias
causes us to fail to print the Var, since there's no longer a name
to print. Failing seems less desirable than printing a made-up
name, so I made it print "?dropped?column?" instead.
Per report from Timo Stolz. Back-patch to all supported branches.

This patch adds a new SUBSCRIPTION parameter "origin". It specifies
whether the subscription will request the publisher to only send changes
that don't have an origin or send changes regardless of origin. Setting it
to "none" means that the subscription will request the publisher to only
send changes that have no origin associated. Setting it to "any" means
that the publisher sends changes regardless of their origin. The default
is "any".
Usage:
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION sub1 CONNECTION 'dbname=postgres port=9999'
PUBLICATION pub1 WITH (origin = none);
This can be used to avoid loops (infinite replication of the same data)
among replication nodes.
This feature allows filtering only the replication data originating from
WAL but for initial sync (initial copy of table data) we don't have such a
facility as we can only distinguish the data based on origin from WAL. As
a follow-up patch, we are planning to forbid the initial sync if the
origin is specified as none and we notice that the publication tables were
also replicated from other publishers to avoid duplicate data or loops.
We forbid to allow creating origin with names 'none' and 'any' to avoid
confusion with the same name options.

This is an extension of the SQL standard, supported by some other
database systems, and so eases the transition from such systems, as
well as removing the minor inconvenience caused by requiring these

We allow users to set the values of not-yet-loaded extension GUCs,
remembering those values in "placeholder" GUC entries. When/if
the extension is loaded later in the session, we need to verify that
the user had permissions to set the GUC. That was done correctly
before commit a0ffa885e, but as of that commit, we'd check the
permissions of the active role when the LOAD happens, not the role
that had set the value. (This'd be a security bug if it had made it
into a released version.)
In principle this is simple enough to fix: we just need to remember
the exact role OID that set each GUC value, and use that not
GetUserID() when verifying permissions. Maintaining that data in
the guc.c data structures is slightly tedious, but fortunately it's
all basically just copy-n-paste of the logic for tracking the
GucSource of each setting, as we were already doing.
Another oversight is that validate_option_array_item() hadn't
been taught to check for granted GUC privileges. This appears
to manifest only in that ALTER ROLE/DATABASE RESET ALL will
fail to reset settings that the user should be allowed to reset.

setrefs.c contains logic to discard no-op SubqueryScan nodes, that is,
ones that have no qual to check and copy the input targetlist unchanged.
(Formally it's not very nice to be applying such optimizations so late
in the planner, but there are practical reasons for it; mostly that we
can't unify relids between the subquery and the parent query until we
flatten the rangetable during setrefs.c.) This behavior falsifies our
previous cost estimates, since we would've charged cpu_tuple_cost per
row just to pass data through the node. Most of the time that's little
enough to not matter, but there are cases where this effect visibly
changes the plan compared to what you would've gotten with no
sub-select.
To improve the situation, make the callers of cost_subqueryscan tell
it whether they think the targetlist is trivial. cost_subqueryscan
already has the qual list, so it can check the other half of the
condition easily. It could make its own determination of tlist
triviality too, but doing so would be repetitive (for callers that
may call it several times) or unnecessarily expensive (for callers
that can determine this more cheaply than a general test would do).
This isn't a 100% solution, because createplan.c also does things
that can falsify any earlier estimate of whether the tlist is
trivial. However, it fixes nearly all cases in practice, if results
for the regression tests are anything to go by.
setrefs.c also contains logic to discard no-op Append and MergeAppend
nodes. We did have knowledge of that behavior at costing time, but
somebody failed to update it when a check on parallel-awareness was
added to the setrefs.c logic. Fix that while we're here.
These changes result in two minor changes in query plans shown in
our regression tests. Neither is relevant to the purposes of its
test case AFAICT.
Patch by me; thanks to Richard Guo for review.

Some of the test cases added by commit 3a0e38504 are failing
intermittently in CI testing. It looks like, when a connection
attempt fails, it's possible for psql to exit and the test script
to slurp up the postmaster's log file before the connected backend
has managed to write the log entry we're expecting to see.
It's not clear whether that's fixable in any robust way. Pending
more thought, just comment out the log_like checks. The ones in
connect_ok tests should be fine, since surely the log entry should
be emitted before we complete the client auth sequence. I took
out all the ones in connect_fails tests though.

Currently, debugging client certificate verification failures is
mostly limited to looking at the TLS alert code on the client side.
For simple deployments, sometimes it's enough to see "sslv3 alert
certificate revoked" and know exactly what needs to be fixed, but if
you add any more complexity (multiple CA layers, misconfigured CA
certificates, etc.), trying to debug what happened based on the TLS
alert alone can be an exercise in frustration.
Luckily, the server has more information about exactly what failed in
the chain, and we already have the requisite callback implemented as a
stub. We fill that in, collect the data, and pass the constructed
error message back to the main code via a static variable. This lets
us add our error details directly to the final "could not accept SSL
connection" log message, as opposed to issuing intermediate LOGs.
It ends up looking like
LOG: connection received: host=localhost port=43112
LOG: could not accept SSL connection: certificate verify failed
DETAIL: Client certificate verification failed at depth 1: unable to get local issuer certificate.
Failed certificate data (unverified): subject "/CN=Test CA for PostgreSQL SSL regression test client certs", serial number 2315134995201656577, issuer "/CN=Test root CA for PostgreSQL SSL regression test suite".
The length of the Subject and Issuer strings is limited to prevent
malicious client certs from spamming the logs. In case the truncation
makes things ambiguous, the certificate's serial number is also
logged.

In what must have been a copy'n paste mistake, all the flag tests use
the same flag rather than a different flag each. The bug is not

As far as I am aware, this is all dead code as far as core code is

This addresses two issues in the tests of test_oat_hooks:
- The role regress_test_user was being left behind, preventing the test
to succeed on repeated runs. It makes sense to leave some objects
behind to have more coverage for pg_upgrade (as does test_pg_dump), but
the role dropped here does not own any objects so there is no reason to
keep it.
- GRANT SET ON PARAMETER is issued, creating an entry in
pg_parameter_acl without cleaning up the entry created. This causes
an overlap with unsafe_tests as both use work_mem, making the latter
fail. This commit adds an extra REVOKE SET ON PARAMETER to clean the
contents of pg_parameter_acl, switching to maintenance_work_mem rather
than work_mem to avoid an overlap between both tests.
The tests of test_oat_hooks cannot use installcheck yet as these are
proving to be unstable with caching and the namespace search hooks, so
the issues fixed here cannot be reached yet, but they would be once the
hook issue is addressed and installcheck is allowed again in
test_oat_hooks.
