On some systems, calls to pg_popcount{32,64} are indirected through
a function pointer. This commit converts pg_popcount() to a
function pointer on those systems so that we can inline the
appropriate pg_popcount{32,64} implementations into each of the
pg_popcount() implementations. Since pg_popcount() may call
pg_popcount{32,64} several times, this can significantly improve
its performance.

When considering nestloop paths for individual partitions within
a partitionwise join, if the inner path is parameterized, it is
parameterized by the topmost parent of the outer rel, not the
corresponding outer rel itself. Therefore, we need to translate the
parameterization so that the inner path is parameterized by the
corresponding outer rel.
Up to now, we did this while generating join paths. However, that's
problematic because we must also translate some expressions that are
shared across all paths for a relation, such as restriction clauses
(kept in the RelOptInfo and/or IndexOptInfo) and TableSampleClauses
(kept in the RangeTblEntry). The existing code fails to translate
these at all, leading to wrong answers, odd failures such as
"variable not found in subplan target list", or executor crashes.
But we can't modify them during path generation, because that would
break things if we end up choosing some non-partitioned-join path.
So this patch postpones reparameterization of the inner path until
createplan.c, where it is safe to modify the referenced RangeTblEntry,
RelOptInfo or IndexOptInfo, because we have made a final choice of which
Path to use. We do still have to check during path generation that
the reparameterization will be possible. So we introduce a new
function path_is_reparameterizable_by_child() to detect that.
The duplication between path_is_reparameterizable_by_child() and
reparameterize_path_by_child() is a bit annoying, but there seems
no other good answer. A small benefit is that we can avoid building
useless reparameterized trees in cases where a non-partitioned join
is ultimately chosen. Also, reparameterize_path_by_child() can now
be allowed to scribble on the input paths, saving a few cycles.
This fix repairs the same problems previously addressed in the
back branches by commits 62f120203 et al.

This checks that certain I/O-related Perl functions properly check
their return value. Some parts of the PostgreSQL code had been a bit
sloppy about that. The new perlcritic warnings are fixed here. I
didn't design any beautiful error messages, mostly just used "or die
$!", which mostly matches existing code, and also this is
developer-level code, so having the system error plus source code
reference should be ok.
Initially, we only activate this check for a subset of what the
perlcritic check would warn about. The effective list is
chmod flock open read rename seek symlink system
The initial set of functions is picked because most existing code
already checked the return value of those, so any omissions are
probably unintended, or because it seems important for test
correctness.
The actual perlcritic configuration is written as an exclude list.
That seems better so that we are clear on what we are currently not
checking. Maybe future patches want to investigate checking some of
the other functions. (In principle, we might eventually want to check
all of them, but since this is test and build support code, not
production code, there are probably some reasonable compromises to be
made.)

DDL code uses tuple descriptors to pass around pg_attribute values
during table and index creation. But tuple descriptors don't include
the variable-length/nullable columns of pg_attribute, so they have to
be handled separately. Right now, the attoptions field is handled in
a one-off way with a separate argument passed to
InsertPgAttributeTuples(). The other affected fields of pg_attribute
are right now not needed at relation creation time.
The goal of this patch is to generalize this to allow handling
additional variable-length/nullable columns of pg_attribute in a
similar manner. For that, create a new struct
FormExtraData_pg_attribute, which is to be passed around in parallel
to the tuple descriptor and optionally supplies the additional
columns. Right now, this struct only contains one field for
attoptions, so no functionality is actually changed by this.

This would affect subplans outside the topmost join plan node, for

This introduces a new function equalRowTypes() that is effectively a
subset of equalTupleDescs() but only compares the number of attributes
and attribute name, type, typmod, and collation. This is enough for
most existing uses of equalTupleDescs(), which are changed to use the
new function. The only remaining callers of equalTupleDescs() are
those that really want to check the full tuple descriptor as such,
without concern about record or row or record type semantics.
The existing function hashTupleDesc() is renamed to hashRowType(),
because it now corresponds more to equalRowTypes().
The purpose of this change is to be clearer about the semantics of the
equality asked for by each caller. (At least one caller had a comment
that questioned whether equalTupleDescs() was too restrictive.) For
example, 4f622503d6 removed attstattarget from the tuple descriptor
structure. It was not fully clear at the time how this should affect
equalTupleDescs(). Now the answer is clear: By their own definitions,
equalRowTypes() does not care, and equalTupleDescs() just compares
whatever is in the tuple descriptor but does not care why it is in
there.

There are currently no tests for the low-level backup method where
pg_backup_start() and pg_backup_stop() are involved while taking a
file-system backup. The tests introduced in this commit rely on a
background psql process to make sure that the backup is taken while the
session doing the SQL start and stop calls remains alive.
Two cases are checked here with the backup taken:
- Recovery without a backup_label, leading to a corrupted state.
- Recovery with a backup_label, with a consistent state reached.
Both cases cross-check some patterns in the logs generated when running
recovery.
Compared to the first attempt in 99b4a63bef, this includes a couple of
fixes making the CI stable (5 runs succeeded here):
- Add the file to the list of tests in meson.build.
- Race condition with the first WAL segment that we expect in the
primary's archives, by adding a poll on pg_stat_archiver. The second
segment with the checkpoint record is archived thanks to pg_backup_stop
waiting for it.
- Fix failure of test where the backup_label does not exist. The
cluster inherits the configuration of the first node; it was attempting
to store segments in the first node's archives, triggering failures with
copy on Windows.
- Fix failure of test on Windows because of incorrect parsing of the
backup_file in the success case. The data of the backup_label file is
retrieved from the output pg_backup_stop() from a BackgroundPsql written
directly to the backup's data folder. This would include CRLFs (\r\n),
causing the startup process to fail at the beginning of recovery when
parsing the backup_label because only LFs (\n) are allowed.

Backpatch-through: 16, where 1349d2790 was added
Commit a3c7a993d fixed some cases involving target columns that are
arrays or composites by applying transformAssignedExpr to the VALUES
entries, and then stripping off any assignment ArrayRefs or
FieldStores that the transformation added. But I forgot about domains
over arrays or composites :-(. Such cases would either fail with
surprising complaints about mismatched datatypes, or insert unexpected
coercions that could lead to odd results. To fix, extend the
stripping logic to get rid of CoerceToDomain if it's atop an ArrayRef
or FieldStore.
While poking at this, I realized that there's a poorly documented and
not-at-all-tested behavior nearby: we coerce each VALUES column to
the domain type separately, and rely on the rewriter to merge those
operations so that the domain constraints are checked only once.
If that merging did not happen, it's entirely possible that we'd get
unexpected domain constraint failures due to checking a
partially-updated container value. There's no bug there, but while
we're here let's improve the commentary about it and add some test
cases that explicitly exercise that behavior.

1. Ignore processes xmin's, because they consider connection to other databases

2. Ignore KnownAssignedXids, because they are not database-aware. At the same
time, the primary could compute its horizons database-aware.
3. Ignore walsender xmin, because it could go backward if some replication

As a result, we're using only currently running xids to compute the horizon.

New provider for collations, like "libc" or "icu", but without any
external dependency.
Initially, the only locale supported by the builtin provider is "C",
which is identical to the libc provider's "C" locale. The libc
provider's "C" locale has always been treated as a special case that
uses an internal implementation, without using libc at all -- so the
new builtin provider uses the same implementation.
The builtin provider's locale is independent of the server environment
variables LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE. Using the builtin provider, the
database collation locale can be "C" while LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE are
set to "en_US", which is impossible with the libc provider.
By offering a new builtin provider, it clarifies that the semantics of
a collation using this provider will never depend on libc, and makes
it easier to document the behavior.

Before this patch, if you took a full backup on server A and then
tried to use the backup manifest to take an incremental backup on
server B, it wouldn't know that the manifest was from a different
server and so the incremental backup operation could potentially
complete without error. When you later tried to run pg_combinebackup,
you'd find out that your incremental backup was and always had been
invalid. That's poor timing, because nobody likes finding out about
backup problems only at restore time.
With this patch, you'll get an error when trying to take the (invalid)
incremental backup, which seems a lot nicer.

There is a very ancient hack in check_sql_fn_retval that allows a
single SELECT targetlist entry of composite type to be taken as
supplying all the output columns of a function returning composite.
(This is grotty and fundamentally ambiguous, but it's really hard
to do nested composite-returning functions without it.)
As far as I know, that doesn't cause any problems in ordinary
functions. It's disastrous for procedures however. All procedures
that have any output parameters are labeled with prorettype RECORD,
and the CALL code expects it will get back a record with one column
per output parameter, regardless of whether any of those parameters
is composite. Doing something else leads to an assertion failure
or core dump.
This is simple enough to fix: we just need to not apply that rule
when considering procedures. However, that requires adding another
argument to check_sql_fn_retval, which at least in principle might be
getting called by external callers. Therefore, in the back branches
convert check_sql_fn_retval into an ABI-preserving wrapper around a
new function check_sql_fn_retval_ext.

The existing PQcancel API uses blocking IO, which makes PQcancel
impossible to use in an event loop based codebase without blocking the
event loop until the call returns. It also doesn't encrypt the
connection over which the cancel request is sent, even when the original
connection required encryption.
This commit adds a PQcancelConn struct and assorted functions, which
provide a better mechanism of sending cancel requests; in particular all
the encryption used in the original connection are also used in the
cancel connection. The main entry points are:
- PQcancelCreate creates the PQcancelConn based on the original
connection (but does not establish an actual connection).
- PQcancelStart can be used to initiate non-blocking cancel requests,
using encryption if the original connection did so, which must be
pumped using
- PQcancelPoll.
- PQcancelReset puts a PQcancelConn back in state so that it can be
reused to send a new cancel request to the same connection.
- PQcancelBlocking is a simpler-to-use blocking API that still uses
encryption.
Additional functions are
- PQcancelStatus, mimicks PQstatus;
- PQcancelSocket, mimicks PQcancelSocket;
- PQcancelErrorMessage, mimicks PQerrorMessage;
- PQcancelFinish, mimicks PQfinish.

Commit 387da18874 moved the code to put socket into non-blocking mode
from socket_set_nonblocking() into the one-time initialization
function, pq_init(). In socket_set_nonblocking(), there indeed was a
risk of recursion on failure like the comment said, but in pq_init(),
ERROR or FATAL is fine. There's even another elog(FATAL) just after
this, if setting FD_CLOEXEC fails.
Note that COMMERROR merely logged the error, it did not close the
connection, so if putting the socket to non-blocking mode failed we
would use the connection anyway. You might not immediately notice,
because most socket operations in a regular backend wait for the
socket to become readable/writable anyway. But e.g. replication will
be quite broken.

The code path in charge of invalidating a replication slot includes a
call to pgstat_drop_replslot(), which would result in removing the
statistics of the slot once invalidated. However, there is no need to
remove the statistics of an invalidated slot as one could still be
interested in looking at them to understand the activity of the slot
until its actual removal.
The initial design of the feature committed in be87200efd used the
approach to drop the slots, which is likely why the statistics were
still removed during the invalidation.
Another problem with this operation is that it was done without holding
ReplicationSlotAllocationLock, leaving it unprotected on concurrent
activity. This part is arguably a bug, but that's a limited problem in
practice so no backpatch is done.
In passing, this commit adds a test to check this behavior. The only
remaining code path where slot statistics are dropped now related to the
slot getting dropped.

Rename lazy_scan_skip() to heap_vac_scan_next_block() and move more
code into the function, so that the caller doesn't need to know about

For pass-by-reference types, the code added in 0b053e78b, which aimed to
resolve a memory leak, was overly aggressive in resetting the per-tuple
memory context which could result in pfree'd memory being accessed
resulting in failing to find previously cached results in the hash
table.
What was happening was prepare_probe_slot() was switching to the
per-tuple memory context and calling ExecEvalExpr(). ExecEvalExpr() may
have required a memory allocation. Both MemoizeHash_hash() and
MemoizeHash_equal() were aggressively resetting the per-tuple context
and after determining the hash value, the context would have gotten reset
before MemoizeHash_equal() was called. This could have resulted in
MemoizeHash_equal() looking at pfree'd memory.
This is less likely to have caused issues on a production build as some
other allocation would have had to have reused the pfree'd memory to
overwrite it. Otherwise, the original contents would have been intact.

The replication slot stats stored in shared memory rely on an internal
index number. Both pgstat_reset_replslot() and pgstat_fetch_replslot()
lacked some LWLock protections with ReplicationSlotControlLock while

functions to potentially operate on incorrect slots when taken in
isolation in the event of slots dropped and/or re-created concurrently.
Note that pg_stat_get_replication_slot() is called once per slot when
querying pg_stat_replication_slots, meaning that the stats are retrieved
across multiple ReplicationSlotControlLock acquisitions. So, while this
commit improves more consistency, it may still be possible that
statistics are not completely consistent for a single scan of
pg_stat_replication_slots under concurrent replication slot drop or
creation activity.

The function recurses, but didn't perform stack-depth checks. It's
just a debugging aid, so instead of the usual check_stack_depth()
call, stop the printing if we'd risk stack overflow.
Here's an example of how to test this:
(n=1000000; printf "BEGIN;"; for ((i=1;i<=$n;i++)); do printf "SAVEPOINT s$i;"; done; printf "SET log_min_messages = 'DEBUG5'; SAVEPOINT sp;") | psql >/dev/null
In the passing, swap building the list of child XIDs and recursing to
parent. That saves memory while recursing, reducing the risk of out of
memory errors with lots of subtransactions. The saving is not very
significant in practice, but this order seems more logical anyway.

Usually the compiler will optimize away the tail recursion anyway, but
if it doesn't, you can drive the function into stack overflow. For
example:
(n=1000000; printf "BEGIN;"; for ((i=1;i<=$n;i++)); do printf "SAVEPOINT s$i;"; done; printf "ERROR; COMMIT;") | psql >/dev/null
In order to get better readability and less changes to the existing code the
recursion-replacing loop is implemented as a wrapper function.

This patch provides a way to ensure that physical standbys that are
potential failover candidates have received and flushed changes before
the primary server making them visible to subscribers. Doing so guarantees
that the promoted standby server is not lagging behind the subscribers
when a failover is necessary.
The logical walsender now guarantees that all local changes are sent and
flushed to the standby servers corresponding to the replication slots
specified in 'standby_slot_names' before sending those changes to the
subscriber.
Additionally, the SQL functions pg_logical_slot_get_changes,
pg_logical_slot_peek_changes and pg_replication_slot_advance are modified
to ensure that they process changes for failover slots only after physical
slots specified in 'standby_slot_names' have confirmed WAL receipt for those.

to provide a string for error codes representing system errno values

The inh field of RangeTblEntry was doubly confusingly documented.
Some parts of the code insisted that it was only valid for
RTE_RELATION entries, other parts said the field was valid for all
entries. Neither was quite correct. More correctly, the field is
valid for RTE_RELATION entries but is also used in the planner for
RTE_SUBQUERY entries. So it makes more sense to group it with other
fields that are primarily for RTE_RELATION but borrowed by
RTE_SUBQUERY. (The exact position was chosen so that it is next to
relkind for better struct packing, and next to relid, since relid and
inh are sort of the input fields and the others are filled in later.)
Also add documentation for the planner's use at the struct definition.

When an UPDATE or DELETE action in MERGE returns TM_SelfModified,
there are 2 possible causes:
1). The target tuple was already updated or deleted by the current
command. This can happen if the target row joins to more than one
source row, and the SQL standard explicitly says that this must be
an error.
2). The target tuple was already updated or deleted by a later command
in the current transaction. This can happen if the tuple is
modified by a BEFORE trigger or a volatile function used in the
query, and should be an error for the same reason that it is in a
plain UPDATE or DELETE command.
In MERGE's primary error handling block, it failed to check for (2),
causing it to return a misleading error message in such cases.
In the secondary error handling block, following a concurrent update
from another session, it failed to check for (1), causing it to
silently ignore target rows joined to more than one source row,
instead of reporting an error.
Fix this, and add tests for both of these cases.

This implements a radix tree data structure based on the design in
"The Adaptive Radix Tree: ARTful Indexing for Main-Memory Databases"
by Viktor Leis, Alfons Kemper, and ThomasNeumann, 2013. The main
technique that makes it adaptive is using several different node types,
each with a different capacity of elements, and a different algorithm
for accessing them. The nodes start small and grow/shrink as needed.
The main advantage over hash tables is efficient sorted iteration and
better memory locality when successive keys are lexicographically
close together. The implementation currently assumes 64-bit integer
keys, and traversing the tree is in general slower than a linear
probing hash table, so this is not a general-purpose associative array.
The paper describes two other techniques not implemented here,
namely "path compression" and "lazy expansion". These can further
reduce memory usage and speed up traversal, but the former would add
significant complexity and the latter requires storing the full key
with the value. We do trivially compress the path when leading bytes
of the key are zeros, however.
For value storage, we use "combined pointer/value slots", as
recommended in the paper. Values of size equal or smaller than the the
platform's pointer type are stored in the array of child pointers in
the last level node, while larger values are each stored in a separate
allocation. This is for now fixed at compile time, but it would be
fairly trivial to allow determining at runtime how variable-length
values are stored.
One innovation in our implementation compared to the ART paper is
decoupling the notion of node "size class" from "kind". The size
classes within a given node kind have the same underlying type, but
a variable capacity for children, so we can introduce additional node
sizes with little additional code.
To enable different use cases to specialize for different value types
and for shared/local memory, we use macro-templatized code generation
in the same manner as simplehash.h and sort_template.h.
Future commits will use this infrastructure for storing TIDs.
Patch by Masahiko Sawada and John Naylor, but a substantial amount of
credit is due to Andres Freund, whose proof-of-concept was a valuable
source of coding idioms and awareness of performance pitfalls, and
who reviewed earlier versions.

In the corner case where a function returning RECORD has been
simplified to a RECORD constant or an inlined ROW() expression,
ExecInitFunctionScan failed to cross-check the function's result
rowtype against the coldeflist provided by the calling query.
That happened because get_expr_result_type is able to extract a
tupdesc from such expressions, which led ExecInitFunctionScan to
ignore the coldeflist. (Instead, it used the extracted tupdesc
to check the function's output, which of course always succeeds.)
I have not been able to demonstrate any really serious consequences
from this, because if some column of the result is of the wrong
type and is directly referenced by a Var of the calling query,
CheckVarSlotCompatibility will catch it. However, we definitely do
fail to report the case where the function returns more columns than
the coldeflist expects, and in the converse case where it returns
fewer columns, we get an assert failure (but, seemingly, no worse
results in non-assert builds).
To fix, always build the expected tupdesc from the coldeflist if there
is one, and consult get_expr_result_type only when there isn't one.
Also remove the failing Assert, even though it is no longer reached
after this fix. It doesn't seem to be adding anything useful, since
later checking will deal with cases with the wrong number of columns.
The only other place I could find that is doing something similar
is inline_set_returning_function. There's no live bug there because
we cannot be looking at a Const or RowExpr, but for consistency
change that code to agree with ExecInitFunctionScan.
Per report from PetSerAl. After some debate I've concluded that
this should be back-patched. There is a small risk that somebody
has been relying on such a case not throwing an error, but I judge
this outweighed by the risk that I've missed some way in which the
failure to cross-check has worse consequences than sketched above.

As coded, the planner logic that calculates the number of parallel
workers to use for a parallel index build uses expressions and
predicates from the relcache, which are flattened for the planner by
eval_const_expressions().
As reported in the bug, an immutable parallel-unsafe function flattened
in the relcache would become a Const, which would be considered as
parallel-safe, even if the predicate or the expressions including the
function are not safe in parallel workers. Depending on the expressions
or predicate used, this could cause the parallel build to fail.
Tests are included that check parallel index builds with parallel-unsafe
predicate and expressions. Two routines are added to lsyscache.h to be
able to retrieve expressions and predicate of an index from its pg_index
data.

pg_constraint.conwithoutoverlaps was recently added to support primary
keys and unique constraints with the WITHOUT OVERLAPS clause. An
upcoming patch provides the foreign-key side of this functionality,
but the syntax there is different and uses the keyword PERIOD. It
would make sense to use the same pg_constraint field for both of
these, but then we should pick a more general name that conveys "this
constraint has a temporal/period-related feature". conperiod works
for that and is nicely compact. Changing this now avoids possibly
having to introduce versioning into clients. Note there are still
some "without overlaps" variables left, which deal specifically with
the parsing of the primary key/unique constraint feature.

Auto-generated array types, multirange types, and relation rowtypes
are treated as dependent objects: they can't be dropped separately
from the base object, nor can they have their own ownership or
permissions. We previously felt that, for objects that are in an
extension, only the base object needs to be listed as an extension
member in pg_depend. While that's sufficient to prevent inappropriate
drops, it results in undesirable answers if someone asks whether a
dependent type belongs to the extension. It looks like the dependent
type is just some random separately-created object that happens to
depend on the base object. Notably, this results in postgres_fdw
concluding that expressions involving an array type are not shippable
to the remote server, even when the defining extension has been
whitelisted.
To fix, cause GenerateTypeDependencies to make extension dependencies
for dependent types as well as their base objects, and adjust
ExecAlterExtensionContentsStmt so that object addition and removal
operations recurse to dependent types. The latter change means that
pg_upgrade of a type-defining extension will end with the dependent
type(s) now also listed as extension members, even if they were
not that way in the source database. Normally we want pg_upgrade
to precisely reproduce the source extension's state, but it seems
desirable to make an exception here.
This is arguably a bug fix, but we can't back-patch it since it
causes changes in the expected contents of pg_depend. (Because
it does, I've bumped catversion, even though there's no change
in the immediate post-initdb catalog contents.)
