Heikki Linnakangas 1375422c78 Create ResultRelInfos later in InitPlan, index them by RT index.
Instead of allocating all the ResultRelInfos upfront in one big array,
allocate them in ExecInitModifyTable(). es_result_relations is now an
array of ResultRelInfo pointers, rather than an array of structs, and it
is indexed by the RT index.

This simplifies things: we get rid of the separate concept of a "result
rel index", and don't need to set it in setrefs.c anymore. This also
allows follow-up optimizations (not included in this commit yet) to skip
initializing ResultRelInfos for target relations that were not needed at
runtime, and removal of the es_result_relation_info pointer.

The EState arrays of regular result rels and root result rels are merged
into one array. Similarly, the resultRelations and rootResultRelations
lists in PlannedStmt are merged into one. It's not actually clear to me
why they were kept separate in the first place, but now that the
es_result_relations array is indexed by RT index, it certainly seems
pointless.

The PlannedStmt->resultRelations list is now only needed for
ExecRelationIsTargetRelation(). One visible effect of this change is that
ExecRelationIsTargetRelation() will now return 'true' also for the
partition root, if a partitioned table is updated. That seems like a good
thing, although the function isn't used in core code, and I don't see any
reason for an FDW to call it on a partition root.

Amit Kapila 2050832d0d Fix the unstable output of tests added by commit 8fccf75834.
The test cases added by that commit were trying to test the exact number of
times a particular transaction has spilled. However, that number can vary if
any background transaction (say by autovacuum) happens in parallel to the main
transaction. So let's not try to verify the exact count.

Tom Lane 371668a838 Fix GiST buffering build to work when there are included columns.
gistRelocateBuildBuffersOnSplit did not get the memo about which
attribute count to use.  This could lead to a crash if there were
included columns and buffering build was chosen.  (Because there
are random page-split decisions elsewhere in GiST index build,
the crashes are not entirely deterministic.)

Back-patch to v12 where GiST gained support for included columns.

Tom Lane 78c0b6ed27 Re-allow testing of GiST buffered builds.
Commit 16fa9b2b3 broke the ability to reliably test GiST buffered builds,
because it caused sorted builds to be done instead if sortsupport is
available, regardless of any attempt to override that.  While a would-be
test case could try to work around that by choosing an opclass that has
no sortsupport function, coverage would be silently lost the moment
someone decides it'd be a good idea to add a sortsupport function.

Hence, rearrange the logic in gistbuild() so that if "buffering = on"
is specified in CREATE INDEX, we will use that method, sortsupport or no.

Also document the interaction between sorting and the buffering
parameter, as 16fa9b2b3 failed to do.

(Note that in fact we still lack any test coverage of buffered builds,
but this is a prerequisite to adding a non-fragile test.)

Tom Lane 397ea901e8 Fix memory leak when guc.c decides a setting can't be applied now.
The prohibitValueChange code paths in set_config_option(), which
are executed whenever we re-read a PGC_POSTMASTER variable from
postgresql.conf, neglected to free anything before exiting.  Thus
we'd leak the proposed new value of a PGC_STRING variable, as noted
by BoChen in bug #16666.  For all variable types, if the check hook
creates an "extra" chunk, we'd also leak that.

These are malloc not palloc chunks, so there is no mechanism for
recovering the leaks before process exit.  Fortunately, the values
are typically not very large, meaning you'd have to go through an
awful lot of SIGHUP configuration-reload cycles to make the leakage
amount to anything.  Still, for a long-lived postmaster process it
could potentially be a problem.

Oversight in commit 2594cf0e8.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Commit fe27009cb tried to make parallel.c's Windows implementation of

actually work because TranslateSocketError() is backend-internal code

Tom Lane fe27009cbb Recognize network-failure errnos as indicating hard connection loss.
Up to now, only ECONNRESET (and EPIPE, in most but not quite all places)
received special treatment in our error handling logic.  This patch
changes things so that related error codes such as ECONNABORTED are
also recognized as indicating that the connection's dead and unlikely
to come back.

We continue to think, however, that only ECONNRESET and EPIPE should be
reported as probable server crashes; the other cases indicate network
connectivity problems but prove little about the server's state.  Thus,
there's no change in the error message texts that are output for such
cases.  The key practical effect is that errcode_for_socket_access()
will report ERRCODE_CONNECTION_FAILURE rather than
ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR for a network failure.  It's expected that this
will fix buildfarm member lorikeet's failures since commit 32a9c0bdf,
as that seems to be due to not treating ECONNABORTED equivalently to
ECONNRESET.

The set of errnos treated this way now includes ECONNABORTED, EHOSTDOWN,
EHOSTUNREACH, ENETDOWN, ENETRESET, and ENETUNREACH.  Several of these
were second-class citizens in terms of their handling in places like
get_errno_symbol(), so upgrade the infrastructure where necessary.

As committed, this patch assumes that all these symbols are defined
everywhere.  POSIX specifies all of them except EHOSTDOWN, but that
seems to exist on all platforms of interest; we'll see what the
buildfarm says about that.

Probably this should be back-patched, but let's see what the buildfarm
thinks of it first.

Hack things so that our idea of "struct stat" is equivalent to Windows'

This avoids a number of issues with Microsoft's multiple and rather

imprecision.

check already done by its caller, and avoid duplicating the
multiply/divide steps by adjusting variable usage.

Tom Lane 3db322eaab Prevent internal overflows in date-vs-timestamp and related comparisons.
The date-vs-timestamp, date-vs-timestamptz, and timestamp-vs-timestamptz
comparators all worked by promoting the first type to the second and
then doing a simple same-type comparison.  This works fine, except
when the conversion result is out of range, in which case we throw an
entirely avoidable error.  The sources of such failures are
(a) type date can represent dates much farther in the future than
the timestamp types can;
(b) timezone rotation might cause a just-in-range timestamp value to
become a just-out-of-range timestamptz value.

Up to now we just ignored these corner-case issues, but now we have
an actual user complaint (bug #16657 from Huss EL-Sheikh), so let's
do something about it.

It turns out that commit 52ad1e659 already built all the necessary

actually use it in the main-line code paths.  Fix that, do a little
bit of code style review, and remove the now-duplicate logic in

Tom Lane 9e5f1f21ad Rethink recent fix for pg_dump's handling of extension config tables.
Commit 3eb3d3e78 was a few bricks shy of a load: while it correctly
set the table's "interesting" flag when deciding to dump the data of
an extension config table, it was not correct to clear that flag
if we concluded we shouldn't dump the data.  This led to the crash
reported in bug #16655, because in fact we'll traverse dumpTableSchema
anyway for all extension tables (to see if they have user-added
seclabels or RLS policies).

The right thing to do is to force "interesting" true in makeTableDataInfo,
and otherwise leave the flag alone.  (Doing it there is more future-proof
in case additional calls are added, and it also avoids setting the flag
unnecessarily if that function decides the table is non-dumpable.)

This investigation also showed that while only the --inserts code path
had an obvious failure in the case considered by 3eb3d3e78, the COPY
code path also has a problem with not having loaded table subsidiary
data.  That causes fmtCopyColumnList to silently return an empty string
instead of the correct column list.  That accidentally mostly works,
which perhaps is why we didn't notice this before.  It would only fail
if the restore column order is different from the dump column order,
which only happens in weird inheritance cases, so it's not surprising
nobody had hit the case with an extension config table.  Nonetheless,
it's a bug, and it goes a long way back, not just to v12 where the
--inserts code path started to have a problem with this.

In hopes of catching such cases a bit sooner in future, add some
Asserts that "interesting" has been set in both dumpTableData and
dumpTableSchema.  Adjust the test case added by 3eb3d3e78 so that it
checks the COPY rather than INSERT form of that bug, allowing it to
detect the longer-standing symptom.

Per bug #16655 from Cameron Daniel.  Back-patch to all supported
branches.

Andres Freund 1df2b50dbe Try to unbreak 021_row_visibility.pl on mingw.
Thanks to Andrew for proposing and testing this fix.

It's possible that we should address this on a more fundamental basis,
e.g. by configuring PerlIO to to CR/LF conversion for us, but this
approach already exists in other places. And it's nice to unbreak the
BF.

Fujii Masao 32a9c0bdf4 postgres_fdw: reestablish new connection if cached one is detected as broken.
In postgres_fdw, once remote connections are established, they are cached
and re-used for subsequent queries and transactions. There can be some
cases where those cached connections are unavaiable, for example,
by the restart of remote server. In these cases, previously an error was
reported and the query accessing to remote server failed if new remote
transaction failed to start because the cached connection was broken.

This commit improves postgres_fdw so that new connection is remade
if broken connection is detected when starting new remote transaction.
This is useful to avoid unnecessary failure of queries when connection is
broken but can be reestablished.

Bruce Momjian 253f1025da Overhaul pg_hba.conf clientcert's API
Since PG 12, clientcert no longer supported only on/off, so remove 1/0
as possible values, and instead support only the text strings
'verify-ca' and 'verify-full'.

Remove support for 'no-verify' since that is possible by just not
specifying clientcert.

Also, throw an error if 'verify-ca' is used and 'cert' authentication is
used, since cert authentication requires verify-full.

Also improve the docs.

THIS IS A BACKWARD INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE.

Tom Lane 53c6daff43 Fix two latent(?) bugs in equivclass.c.
get_eclass_for_sort_expr() computes expr_relids and nullable_relids
early on, even though they won't be needed unless we make a new
EquivalenceClass, which we often don't.  Aside from the probably-minor
inefficiency, there's a memory management problem: these bitmapsets will
be built in the caller's context, leading to dangling pointers if that
is shorter-lived than root->planner_cxt.  This would be a live bug if
get_eclass_for_sort_expr() could be called with create_it = true during
GEQO join planning.  So far as I can find, the core code never does
that, but it's hard to be sure that no extensions do, especially since
the comments make it clear that that's supposed to be a supported case.
Fix by not computing these values until we've switched into planner_cxt
to build the new EquivalenceClass.

generate_join_implied_equalities() uses inner_rel->relids to look up
relevant eclasses, but it ought to be using nominal_inner_relids.
This is presently harmless because a child RelOptInfo will always have
exactly the same eclass_indexes as its topmost parent; but that might
not be true forever, and anyway it makes the code confusing.

The first of these is old (introduced by me in f3b3b8d5b), so back-patch
to all supported branches.  The second only dates to v13, but we might
as well back-patch it to keep the code looking similar across branches.

(These are not all the discrepancies I found in a quick search,

at least a case to be made for changing pg_proc not the docs.)

Tom Lane e899742081 Improve stability of identity.sql regression test.
I noticed while trying to run the regression tests under a low
geqo_threshold that one query on information_schema.columns had
unstable (as in, variable from one run to the next) output order.
This is pretty unsurprising given the complexity of the underlying
plan.  Interestingly, of this test's three nigh-identical queries on
information_schema.columns, the other two already had ORDER BY clauses
guaranteeing stable output.  Let's make this one look the same.

Back-patch to v10 where this test was added.  We've not heard field
reports of the test failing, but this experience shows that it can
happen when testing under even slightly unusual conditions.

Michael Paquier 10c5291cc2 Fix handling of redundant options with COPY for "freeze" and "header"
The handling of those options was inconsistent, as the processing used
directly the value assigned to the option to check if it was redundant,
leading to patterns like this one to succeed (note that false is
specified first):
COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header off, header on);

And the opposite would fail correctly (note that true is first here):
COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header on, header off);

While on it, add some tests to check for all redundant patterns with the
options of COPY.  I have gone through the code and did not notice
similar mistakes for other commands.

"header" got it wrong since b63990c, and "freeze" was wrong from the
start as of 8de72b6.  No backpatch is done per the lack of complaints.

Tom Lane 97b6144826 Make postgres.bki use the same literal-string syntax as postgresql.conf.
The BKI file's string quoting conventions were previously quite weird,
perhaps as a result of repurposing a function built to scan
single-quoted strings to scan double-quoted ones.  Change to use the
same rules as we use in GUC files, allowing some simplifications in
genbki.pl and initdb.c.

While at it, completely remove the backend's scanstr() function, which
was essentially a duplicate of the string dequoting code in guc-file.l.
Instead export that one (under a less generic name than it had) and let
bootscanner.l use it.  Now we can clarify that scansup.c exists only to
support the main lexer. We could alternatively have removed GUC_scanstr,
but this way seems better since the previous arrangement could mislead
a reader into thinking that scanstr() had something to do with the main
lexer's handling of string literals.  Maybe it did once, but if so it
was a long time ago.

This patch does not bump catversion, since the initially-installed
catalog contents don't change.  Note however that successful initdb
after applying this patch will require up-to-date postgres.bki as well
as postgres and initdb executables.

In passing, remove a bunch of very-long-obsolete #include's in
bootparse.y and bootscanner.l.
