Tom Lane 4a8bc39b08 Speed up hash_index regression test.
Commit f5ab0a14e made this test take substantially longer than it used
to.  With a bit more care, we can get the runtime back down while
achieving the same, or even a bit better, code coverage.

Tom Lane 16ebab6886 Avoid transferring parallel-unsafe subplans to parallel workers.
Commit 5e6d8d2bb allowed parallel workers to execute parallel-safe
subplans, but it transmitted the query's entire list of subplans to
the worker(s).  Since execMain.c blindly does ExecInitNode and later
ExecEndNode on every list element, this resulted in parallel-unsafe plan
nodes nonetheless getting started up and shut down in parallel workers.
That seems mostly harmless as far as core plan node types go (but
maybe not so much for Gather?).  But it resulted in postgres_fdw
opening and then closing extra remote connections, and it's likely
that other non-parallel-safe FDWs or custom scan providers would have
worse reactions.

To fix, just make ExecSerializePlan replace parallel-unsafe subplans
with NULLs in the cut-down plan tree that it transmits to workers.
This relies on ExecInitNode and ExecEndNode to do nothing on NULL
input, but they do anyway.  If anything else is touching the dropped
subplans in a parallel worker, that would be a bug to be fixed.
(This thus provides a strong guarantee that we won't try to do
something with a parallel-unsafe subplan in a worker.)

This is, I think, the last fix directly occasioned by Andreas Seltenreich's
bug report of a few days ago.

Tom Lane 003d80f3df Mark finished Plan nodes with parallel_safe flags.
We'd managed to avoid doing this so far, but it seems pretty obvious
that it would be forced on us some day, and this is much the cleanest
way of approaching the open problem that parallel-unsafe subplans are
being transmitted to parallel workers.  Anyway there's no space cost
due to alignment considerations, and the time cost is pretty minimal
since we're just copying the flag from the corresponding Path node.
(At least in most cases ... some of the klugier spots in createplan.c
have to work a bit harder.)

In principle we could perhaps get rid of SubPlan.parallel_safe,
but I thought it better to keep that in case there are reasons to
consider a SubPlan unsafe even when its child plan is parallel-safe.

This patch doesn't actually do anything with the new flags, but
I thought I'd commit it separately anyway.

Note: although this touches outfuncs/readfuncs, there's no need for
a catversion bump because Plan trees aren't stored on disk.

Robert Haas 8ff518699f Fix confusion of max_parallel_workers mechanism following crash.
Commit b460f5d669 failed to contemplate
the possibilit that a parallel worker registered before a crash would
be unregistered only after the crash; if that happened, we'd end up
with parallel_terminate_count > parallel_register_count and the
system would refuse to launch any more parallel workers.

The easiest way to fix that seems to be to forget BGW_NEVER_RESTART
workers in ResetBackgroundWorkerCrashTimes() rather than leaving them
around to be cleaned up after the conclusion of the restart, so that
they go away before rather than after shared memory is reset.

To make sure that this fix is water-tight, don't allow parallel
workers to be anything other than BGW_NEVER_RESTART, so that after
recovering from a crash, 0 is guaranteed to be the correct starting
value for parallel_register_count.  The core code wouldn't do this
anyway, but somebody might try to do it in extension code.

This extends the castNode() notation introduced by commit 5bcab1114 to
provide, in one step, extraction of a list cell's pointer and coercion to
a concrete node type.  For example, "lfirst_node(Foo, lc)" is the same
as "castNode(Foo, lfirst(lc))".  Almost half of the uses of castNode
that have appeared so far include a list extraction call, so this is
pretty widely useful, and it saves a few more keystrokes compared to the
old way.

As with the previous patch, back-patch the addition of these macros to
pg_list.h, so that the notation will be available when back-patching.

Tom Lane 511540dadf Move isolationtester's is-blocked query into C code for speed.
Commit 4deb41381 modified isolationtester's query to see whether a
session is blocked to also check for waits occurring in GetSafeSnapshot.
However, it did that in a way that enormously increased the query's
runtime under CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, causing the buildfarm members
that use that to run about four times slower than before, and in some
cases fail entirely.  To fix, push the entire logic into a dedicated
backend function.  This should actually reduce the CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS
runtime from what it was previously, though I've not checked that.

In passing, expose a SQL function to check for safe-snapshot blockage,
comparable to pg_blocking_pids.  This is more or less free given the
infrastructure built to solve the other problem, so we might as well.

Tom Lane 9c7f5229ad Optimize joins when the inner relation can be proven unique.
If there can certainly be no more than one matching inner row for a given
outer row, then the executor can move on to the next outer row as soon as
it's found one match; there's no need to continue scanning the inner
relation for this outer row.  This saves useless scanning in nestloop
and hash joins.  In merge joins, it offers the opportunity to skip
mark/restore processing, because we know we have not advanced past the
first possible match for the next outer row.

Of course, the devil is in the details: the proof of uniqueness must
depend only on joinquals (not otherquals), and if we want to skip
mergejoin mark/restore then it must depend only on merge clauses.
To avoid adding more planning overhead than absolutely necessary,
the present patch errs in the conservative direction: there are cases
where inner_unique or skip_mark_restore processing could be used, but
it will not do so because it's not sure that the uniqueness proof
depended only on "safe" clauses.  This could be improved later.

Tom Lane 89deca582a Fix planner error (or assert trap) with nested set operations.
As reported by Sean Johnston in bug #14614, since 9.6 the planner can fail
due to trying to look up the referent of a Var with varno 0.  This happens
because we generate such Vars in generate_append_tlist, for lack of any
better way to describe the output of a SetOp node.  In typical situations
nothing really cares about that, but given nested set-operation queries
we will call estimate_num_groups on the output of the subquery, and that
wants to know what a Var actually refers to.  That logic used to look at
subquery->targetList, but in commit 3fc6e2d7f I'd switched it to look at
subroot->processed_tlist, ie the actual output of the subquery plan not the
parser's idea of the result.  It seemed like a good idea at the time :-(.
As a band-aid fix, change it back.

Really we ought to have an honest way of naming the outputs of SetOp steps,
which suggests that it'd be a good idea for the parser to emit an RTE
corresponding to each one.  But that's a task for another day, and it
certainly wouldn't yield a back-patchable fix.

Heikki Linnakangas 60f11b87a2 Use SASLprep to normalize passwords for SCRAM authentication.
An important step of SASLprep normalization, is to convert the string to
Unicode normalization form NFKC. Unicode normalization requires a fairly
large table of character decompositions, which is generated from data
published by the Unicode consortium. The script to generate the table is
put in src/common/unicode, as well test code for the normalization.
A pre-generated version of the tables is included in src/include/common,
so you don't need the code in src/common/unicode to build PostgreSQL, only
if you wish to modify the normalization tables.

The SASLprep implementation depends on the UTF-8 functions from
src/backend/utils/mb/wchar.c. So to use it, you must also compile and link
that. That doesn't change anything for the current users of these
functions, the backend and libpq, as they both already link with wchar.o.
It would be good to move those functions into a separate file in
src/commmon, but I'll leave that for another day.

No documentation changes included, because there is no details on the
SCRAM mechanism in the docs anyway. An overview on that in the protocol
specification would probably be good, even though SCRAM is documented in
detail in RFC5802. I'll write that as a separate patch. An important thing
to mention there is that we apply SASLprep even on invalid UTF-8 strings,
to support other encodings.

Tom Lane 3f902354b0 Clean up after insufficiently-researched optimization of tuple conversions.
tupconvert.c's functions formerly considered that an explicit tuple
conversion was necessary if the input and output tupdescs contained
different type OIDs.  The point of that was to make sure that a composite
datum resulting from the conversion would contain the destination rowtype
OID in its composite-datum header.  However, commit 3838074f8 entirely
misunderstood what that check was for, thinking that it had something to do
with presence or absence of an OID column within the tuple.  Removal of the
check broke the no-op conversion path in ExecEvalConvertRowtype, as
reported by Ashutosh Bapat.

It turns out that of the dozen or so call sites for tupconvert.c functions,
ExecEvalConvertRowtype is the only one that cares about the composite-datum
header fields in the output tuple.  In all the rest, we'd much rather avoid
an unnecessary conversion whenever the tuples are physically compatible.
Moreover, the comments in tupconvert.c only promise physical compatibility
not a metadata match.  So, let's accept the removal of the guarantee about
the output tuple's rowtype marking, recognizing that this is a API change
that could conceivably break third-party callers of tupconvert.c.  (So,
let's remember to mention it in the v10 release notes.)

However, commit 3838074f8 did have a bit of a point here, in that two
tuples mustn't be considered physically compatible if one has HEAP_HASOID
set and the other doesn't.  (Some of the callers of tupconvert.c might not
really care about that, but we can't assume it in general.)  The previous
check accidentally covered that issue, because no RECORD types ever have
OIDs, while if two tupdescs have the same named composite type OID then,
a fortiori, they have the same tdhasoid setting.  If we're removing the
type OID match check then we'd better include tdhasoid match as part of
the physical compatibility check.

Without that hack in tupconvert.c, we need ExecEvalConvertRowtype to take
responsibility for inserting the correct rowtype OID label whenever
tupconvert.c decides it need not do anything.  This is easily done with
heap_copy_tuple_as_datum, which will be considerably faster than a tuple
disassembly and reassembly anyway; so from a performance standpoint this
change is a win all around compared to what happened in earlier branches.
It just means a couple more lines of code in ExecEvalConvertRowtype.

Andres Freund fa117ee403 Allow avoiding tuple copy within tuplesort_gettupleslot().
Add a "copy" argument to make it optional to receive a copy of caller
tuple that is safe to use following a subsequent manipulating of
tuplesort's state.  This is a performance optimization.  Most existing
tuplesort_gettupleslot() callers are made to opt out of copying.
Existing callers that happen to rely on the validity of tuple memory
beyond subsequent manipulations of the tuplesort request their own
copy.

This brings tuplesort_gettupleslot() in line with
tuplestore_gettupleslot().  In the future, a "copy"
tuplesort_getdatum() argument may be added, that similarly allows
callers to opt out of receiving their own copy of tuple.

In passing, clarify assumptions that callers of other tuplesort fetch
routines may make about tuple memory validity, per gripe from Tom
Lane.

To fix that, use pq_sendcountedtext() for sending tuple attributes,
which takes care of all of that internally.  To match the API of
pq_sendcountedtext(), send even text values without a trailing zero byte
and have the receiving end put it in place instead.  This matches how
the standard FE/BE protocol behaves.

Tom Lane df1a699e5b Fix integer-overflow problems in interval comparison.
When using integer timestamps, the interval-comparison functions tried
to compute the overall magnitude of an interval as an int64 number of
microseconds.  As reported by Frazer McLean, this overflows for intervals
exceeding about 296000 years, which is bad since we nominally allow
intervals many times larger than that.  That results in wrong comparison
results, and possibly in corrupted btree indexes for columns containing
such large interval values.

To fix, compute the magnitude as int128 instead.  Although some compilers
have native support for int128 calculations, many don't, so create our
own support functions that can do 128-bit addition and multiplication
if the compiler support isn't there.  These support functions are designed
with an eye to allowing the int128 code paths in numeric.c to be rewritten
for use on all platforms, although this patch doesn't do that, or even
provide all the int128 primitives that will be needed for it.

Back-patch as far as 9.4.  Earlier releases did not guard against overflow
of interval values at all (commit 146604ec4 fixed that), so it seems not
very exciting to worry about overly-large intervals for them.

Before 9.6, we did not assume that unreferenced "static inline" functions
would not draw compiler warnings, so omit functions not directly referenced
by timestamp.c, the only present consumer of int128.h.  (We could have
omitted these functions in HEAD too, but since they were written and
debugged on the way to the present patch, and they look likely to be needed
by numeric.c, let's keep them in HEAD.)  I did not bother to try to prevent
such warnings in a --disable-integer-datetimes build, though.

Before 9.5, configure will never define HAVE_INT128, so the part of
int128.h that exploits a native int128 implementation is dead code in the
9.4 branch.  I didn't bother to remove it, thinking that keeping the file
looking similar in different branches is more useful.

In HEAD only, add a simple test harness for int128.h in src/tools/.

In back branches, this does not change the float-timestamps code path.
That's not subject to the same kind of overflow risk, since it computes
the interval magnitude as float8.  (No doubt, when this code was originally
written, overflow was disregarded for exactly that reason.)  There is a
precision hazard instead :-(, but we'll avert our eyes from that question,
since no complaints have been reported and that code's deprecated anyway.

function so that authors of out-of-tree PLs can do the same.

Also get rid of a second QueryEnvironment object that was
maintained by PL/pgsql.  That was previously used to deal with
cursors, but the same approach wasn't appropriate for PLs that are
less tangled up with core code.  Instead, have SPI_cursor_open
install the connection's current QueryEnvironment, as already
happens for SPI_execute_plan.

While in the docs, remove the note that transition tables were only
supported in C and PL/pgSQL triggers, and correct some ommissions.

Robert Haas ea69a0dead Expand hash indexes more gradually.
Since hash indexes typically have very few overflow pages, adding a
new splitpoint essentially doubles the on-disk size of the index,
which can lead to large and abrupt increases in disk usage (and
perhaps long delays on occasion).  To mitigate this problem to some
degree, divide larger splitpoints into four equal phases.  This means
that, for example, instead of growing from 4GB to 8GB all at once, a
hash index will now grow from 4GB to 5GB to 6GB to 7GB to 8GB, which
is perhaps still not as smooth as we'd like but certainly an
improvement.

This changes the on-disk format of the metapage, so bump HASH_VERSION
from 2 to 3.  This will force a REINDEX of all existing hash indexes,
but that's probably a good idea anyway.  First, hash indexes from
pre-10 versions of PostgreSQL could easily be corrupted, and we don't
want to confuse corruption carried over from an older release with any
corruption caused despite the new write-ahead logging in v10.  Second,
it will let us remove some backward-compatibility code added by commit
293e24e507.

Also, remove find_childrel_top_parent, which will not work for a

Tom Lane f833c847b8 Allow psql variable substitution to occur in backtick command strings.
Previously, text between backquotes in a psql metacommand's arguments
was always passed to the shell literally.  That considerably hobbles
the usefulness of the feature for scripting, so we'd foreseen for a long
time that we'd someday want to allow substitution of psql variables into
the shell command.  IMO the addition of \if metacommands has brought us to
that point, since \if can greatly benefit from some sort of client-side
expression evaluation capability, and psql itself is not going to grow any
such thing in time for v10.  Hence, this patch.  It allows :VARIABLE to be
replaced by the exact contents of the named variable, while :'VARIABLE'
is replaced by the variable's contents suitably quoted to become a single
shell-command argument.  (The quoting rules for that are different from
those for SQL literals, so this is a bit of an abuse of the :'VARIABLE'
notation, but I doubt anyone will be confused.)

As with other situations in psql, no substitution occurs if the word
following a colon is not a known variable name.  That limits the risk of
compatibility problems for existing psql scripts; but the risk isn't zero,
so this needs to be called out in the v10 release notes.

When the BRIN summary tuple for a page range becomes too "wide" for the
values actually stored in the table (because the tuples that were

Alvaro Herrera 7526e10224 BRIN auto-summarization
Previously, only VACUUM would cause a page range to get initially
summarized by BRIN indexes, which for some use cases takes too much time
since the inserts occur.  To avoid the delay, have brininsert request a
summarization run for the previous range as soon as the first tuple is
inserted into the first page of the next range.  Autovacuum is in charge
of processing these requests, after doing all the regular vacuuming/
analyzing work on tables.

This doesn't impose any new tasks on autovacuum, because autovacuum was
already in charge of doing summarizations.  The only actual effect is to
change the timing, i.e. that it occurs earlier.  For this reason, we
don't go any great lengths to record these requests very robustly; if
they are lost because of a server crash or restart, they will happen at
a later time anyway.

Most of the new code here is in autovacuum, which can now be told about
"work items" to process.  This can be used for other things such as GIN
pending list cleaning, perhaps visibility map bit setting, both of which
are currently invoked during vacuum, but do not really depend on vacuum
taking place.

The requests are at the page range level, a granularity for which we did
not have SQL-level access; we only had index-level summarization
requests via brin_summarize_new_values().  It seems reasonable to add
SQL-level access to range-level summarization too, so add a function
brin_summarize_range() to do that.

Kevin Grittner 18ce3a4ab2 Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references.
A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of
objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through
execution.  At this point, the only thing implemented is a
collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which
can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the
catalogs.  The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but
provision is made to add more types fairly easily.

An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the
catalogs by relid.

Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience
functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code
run through SPI.

The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in
AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate
commit.

An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative
error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE
from a referencing DML statement.  No tests previously covered that
possibility, so one is added.

We were requiring that the user have REFERENCES permission on both the
referenced and referencing tables --- but this doesn't seem to have any
support in the SQL standard, which says only that you need REFERENCES
permission on the referenced table.  And ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY has
already checked that you own the referencing table, so the check could
only fail if a table owner has revoked his own REFERENCES permission.
Moreover, the symmetric interpretation of this permission is unintuitive
and confusing, as per complaint from Paul Jungwirth.  So let's drop the
referencing-side check.

In passing, do a bit of wordsmithing on the GRANT reference page so that
all the privilege types are described in similar fashion.

Tom Lane e984ef5861 Support \if ... \elif ... \else ... \endif in psql scripting.
This patch adds nestable conditional blocks to psql.  The control
structure feature per se is complete, but the boolean expressions
understood by \if and \elif are pretty primitive; basically, after
variable substitution and backtick expansion, the result has to be
"true" or "false" or one of the other standard spellings of a boolean
value.  But that's enough for many purposes, since you can always
do the heavy lifting on the server side; and we can extend it later.

Along the way, pay down some of the technical debt that had built up
around psql/command.c:
* Refactor exec_command() into a function per command, instead of
being a 1500-line monstrosity.  This makes the file noticeably longer
because of repetitive function header/trailer overhead, but it seems
much more readable.
* Teach psql_get_variable() and psqlscanslash.l to suppress variable
substitution and backtick expansion on the basis of the conditional
stack state, thereby allowing removal of the OT_NO_EVAL kluge.
* Fix the no-doubt-once-expedient hack of sometimes silently substituting
mainloop.c's previous_buf for query_buf when calling HandleSlashCmds.
(It's a bit remarkable that commands like \r worked at all with that.)
Recall of a previous query is now done explicitly in the slash commands
where that should happen.

Tom Lane 2c4debbd0f Make new expression eval code reject references to dropped columns.
Formerly, a Var referencing an already-dropped column was allowed and would
always produce a NULL value.  However, that behavior was implemented in
slot_getattr which the new expression code doesn't use; thus there is now a
risk of returning theoretically-deleted data.  We had regression test cases
that purported to exercise this, but they failed to expose any problem,
apparently because plpgsql filters the dropped column and produces an
output tuple that has a NULL there already.

Ideally the DROP or ALTER attempt in these test cases would get rejected
due to dependency checks; but until that happens, let's modify the behavior
so that we fail the query during executor start.  This was already true for
the related case of a column having changed type underneath us, and there's
no obvious reason why we need to be laxer for dropped columns.

In passing, adjust the error messages in CheckVarSlotCompatibility to
include the composite type name.  In the cases shown in the regression
tests this is always just "record", but it should be more useful in
actual stale-plan cases, where the slot tupdesc would be a table's
tupdesc directly.

Andres Freund b8d7f053c5 Faster expression evaluation and targetlist projection.
This replaces the old, recursive tree-walk based evaluation, with
non-recursive, opcode dispatch based, expression evaluation.
Projection is now implemented as part of expression evaluation.

This both leads to significant performance improvements, and makes
future just-in-time compilation of expressions easier.

The speed gains primarily come from:
- non-recursive implementation reduces stack usage / overhead
- simple sub-expressions are implemented with a single jump, without
  function calls
- sharing some state between different sub-expressions
- reduced amount of indirect/hard to predict memory accesses by laying
  out operation metadata sequentially; including the avoidance of
  nearly all of the previously used linked lists
- more code has been moved to expression initialization, avoiding
  constant re-checks at evaluation time

Future just-in-time compilation (JIT) has become easier, as
demonstrated by released patches intended to be merged in a later
release, for primarily two reasons: Firstly, due to a stricter split
between expression initialization and evaluation, less code has to be
handled by the JIT. Secondly, due to the non-recursive nature of the
generated "instructions", less performance-critical code-paths can
easily be shared between interpreted and compiled evaluation.

The new framework allows for significant future optimizations. E.g.:
- basic infrastructure for to later reduce the per executor-startup
  overhead of expression evaluation, by caching state in prepared
  statements.  That'd be helpful in OLTPish scenarios where
  initialization overhead is measurable.
- optimizing the generated "code". A number of proposals for potential
  work has already been made.
- optimizing the interpreter. Similarly a number of proposals have
  been made here too.

The move of logic into the expression initialization step leads to some
backward-incompatible changes:
- Function permission checks are now done during expression
  initialization, whereas previously they were done during
  execution. In edge cases this can lead to errors being raised that
  previously wouldn't have been, e.g. a NULL array being coerced to a
  different array type previously didn't perform checks.
- The set of domain constraints to be checked, is now evaluated once
  during expression initialization, previously it was re-built
  every time a domain check was evaluated. For normal queries this
  doesn't change much, but e.g. for plpgsql functions, which caches
  ExprStates, the old set could stick around longer.  The behavior
  around might still change.

Robert Haas 61c2e1a95f Improve access to parallel query from procedural languages.
In SQL, the ability to use parallel query was previous contingent on
fcache->readonly_func, which is only set for non-volatile functions;
but the volatility of a function has no bearing on whether queries
inside it can use parallelism.  Remove that condition.

SPI_execute and SPI_execute_with_args always run the plan just once,
though not necessarily to completion.  Given the changes in commit
691b8d5928, it's sensible to pass
CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK here, so do that.  This improves access to
parallelism for any caller that uses these functions to execute
queries.  Such callers include plperl, plpython, pltcl, and plpgsql,
though it's not the case that they all use these functions
exclusively.

In plpgsql, allow parallel query for plain SELECT queries (as
opposed to PERFORM, which already worked) and for plain expressions
(which probably won't go through the executor at all, because they
will likely be simple expressions, but if they do then this helps).

Alvaro Herrera 7b504eb282 Implement multivariate n-distinct coefficients
Add support for explicitly declared statistic objects (CREATE
STATISTICS), allowing collection of statistics on more complex
combinations that individual table columns.  Companion commands DROP
STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are
added too.  All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types
can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and
multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room
for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions.

This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient
on user-specified sets of columns in a single table.  This is useful to
estimate number of distinct groups in GROUP BY and DISTINCT clauses;
estimation errors there can cause over-allocation of memory in hashed
aggregates, for instance, so it's a worthwhile problem to solve.  A new
special pseudo-type pg_ndistinct is used.

(num-distinct estimation was deemed sufficiently useful by itself that
this is worthwhile even if no further statistic types are added
immediately; so much so that another version of essentially the same
functionality was submitted by Kyotaro Horiguchi:

Commit 7aea8e4f2d allowed a parallel
plan to be generated when for a RETURN QUERY or RETURN QUERY EXECUTE
statement in a PL/pgsql block, but that's a bad idea because plplgsql
asks the executor for 50 rows at a time.  That means that we'll always
be running serially a plan that was intended for parallel execution,
which is not a good idea.  Fix by not requesting a parallel plan from
the outset.

Per discussion, back-patch to 9.6.  There is a slight risk that, due
to optimizer error, somebody could have a case where the parallel plan
executed serially is actually faster than the supposedly-best serial
plan, but the consensus seems to be that that's not sufficient
justification for leaving 9.6 unpatched.

Heikki Linnakangas 7ac955b347 Allow SCRAM authentication, when pg_hba.conf says 'md5'.
If a user has a SCRAM verifier in pg_authid.rolpassword, there's no reason
we cannot attempt to perform SCRAM authentication instead of MD5. The worst
that can happen is that the client doesn't support SCRAM, and the
authentication will fail. But previously, it would fail for sure, because
we would not even try. SCRAM is strictly more secure than MD5, so there's
no harm in trying it. This allows for a more graceful transition from MD5
passwords to SCRAM, as user passwords can be changed to SCRAM verifiers
incrementally, without changing pg_hba.conf.

Refactor the code in auth.c to support that better. Notably, we now have to
look up the user's pg_authid entry before sending the password challenge,
also when performing MD5 authentication. Also simplify the concept of a
"doomed" authentication. Previously, if a user had a password, but it had
expired, we still performed SCRAM authentication (but always returned error
at the end) using the salt and iteration count from the expired password.
Now we construct a fake salt, like we do when the user doesn't have a
password or doesn't exist at all. That simplifies get_role_password(), and
we can don't need to distinguish the  "user has expired password", and
"user does not exist" cases in auth.c.

On second thoughts, also rename uaSASL to uaSCRAM. It refers to the
mechanism specified in pg_hba.conf, and while we use SASL for SCRAM
authentication at the protocol level, the mechanism should be called SCRAM,
not SASL. As a comparison, we have uaLDAP, even though it looks like the
plain 'password' authentication at the protocol level.

Peter Eisentraut eccfef81e1 ICU support
Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library
provides the collation data.  The existing choices are default and libc,
and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library.

The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the
provider-specific locale handles.  Users of locale information are
changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use.

Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation
when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same.
This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt
indexes and other structures.  This is currently only supported by
ICU-provided collations.

initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale
-a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu"
appended.

Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named
collations.  The global database locales are still always libc-provided.

ICU support is enabled by configure --with-icu.

Robert Haas 691b8d5928 Allow for parallel execution whenever ExecutorRun() is done only once.
Previously, it was unsafe to execute a plan in parallel if
ExecutorRun() might be called with a non-zero row count.  However,
it's quite easy to fix things up so that we can support that case,
provided that it is known that we will never call ExecutorRun() a
second time for the same QueryDesc.  Add infrastructure to signal
this, and cross-checks to make sure that a caller who claims this is
true doesn't later reneg.

While that pattern never happens with queries received directly from a
client -- there's no way to know whether multiple Execute messages
will be sent unless the first one requests all the rows -- it's pretty
common for queries originating from procedural languages, which often
limit the result to a single tuple or to a user-specified number of
tuples.

This commit doesn't actually enable parallelism in any additional
cases, because currently none of the places that would be able to
benefit from this infrastructure pass CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK in the
first place, but it makes it much more palatable to pass
CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK in places where we currently don't, because it
eliminates some cases where we'd end up having to run the parallel
plan serially.

Simon Riggs 6912acc04f Replication lag tracking for walsenders
Adds write_lag, flush_lag and replay_lag cols to pg_stat_replication.

Implements a lag tracker module that reports the lag times based upon
measurements of the time taken for recent WAL to be written, flushed and
replayed and for the sender to hear about it. These times
represent the commit lag that was (or would have been) introduced by each
synchronous commit level, if the remote server was configured as a
synchronous standby.  For an asynchronous standby, the replay_lag column
approximates the delay before recent transactions became visible to queries.
If the standby server has entirely caught up with the sending server and
there is no more WAL activity, the most recently measured lag times will
continue to be displayed for a short time and then show NULL.

Physical replication lag tracking is automatic. Logical replication tracking
is possible but is the responsibility of the logical decoding plugin.
Tracking is a private module operating within each walsender individually,
with values reported to shared memory. Module not used outside of walsender.

Design and code is good enough now to commit - kudos to the author.
In many ways a difficult topic, with important and subtle behaviour so this
shoudl be expected to generate discussion and multiple open items: Test now!

For the copying, add a new internal COPY option to have the COPY source

providing it locally into a COPY that writes to the destination table.

A WAL receiver can now execute full SQL commands.  This is used here to
obtain information about tables and publications.

Several new options were added to CREATE and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION to
control whether and when initial table syncing happens.

Simon Riggs 9b013dc238 Improve performance of replay of AccessExclusiveLocks
A hot standby replica keeps a list of Access Exclusive locks for a top
level transaction. These locks are released when the top level transaction
ends. Searching of this list is O(N^2), and each transaction had to pay the
price of searching this list for locks, even if it didn't take any AE
locks itself.

This patch optimizes this case by having the master server track which
transactions took AE locks, and passes that along to the standby server in
the commit/abort record. This allows the standby to only try to release
locks for transactions which actually took any, avoiding the majority of
the performance issue.

Robert Haas d3cc37f1d8 Don't scan partitioned tables.
Partitioned tables do not contain any data; only their unpartitioned
descendents need to be scanned.  However, the partitioned tables still
need to be locked, even though they're not scanned.  To make that
work, Append and MergeAppend relations now need to carry a list of
(unscanned) partitioned relations that must be locked, and InitPlan
must lock all partitioned result relations.

Aside from the obvious advantage of avoiding some work at execution
time, this has two other advantages.  First, it may improve the
planner's decision-making in some cases since the empty relation
might throw things off.  Second, it paves the way to getting rid of
the storage for partitioned tables altogether.

Tom Lane 17f8ffa1e3 Fix REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW to report activity to the stats collector.
The non-concurrent code path for REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW failed to
report its updates to the stats collector.  This is bad since it means
auto-analyze doesn't know there's any work to be done.  Adjust it to
report the refresh as a table truncate followed by insertion of an
appropriate number of rows.

Since a matview could contain more than INT_MAX rows, change the
signature of pgstat_count_heap_insert() to accept an int64 rowcount.
(The accumulator it's adding into is already int64, but existing
callers could not insert more than a small number of rows at once,
so the argument had been declared just "int n".)

This is surely a bug fix, but changing pgstat_count_heap_insert()'s API
seems too risky for the back branches.  Given the lack of previous
complaints, I'm not sure it's a big enough problem to justify a kluge
solution that would avoid that.  So, no back-patch, at least for now.

Stephen Frost 805e8bc702 Adjust number of tests for pg_dump 001_basic.pl
When removing a test, need to make sure the count of tests is adjusted
when it isn't calculated.

Stephen Frost 5abda5a3e9 pg_dump: Remove "option requires an argument -- j" test
This is really testing getopt more than pg_dump, and what getopt returns
exactly appears to differ based on platform, so remove this test.

Per buildfarm.

Stephen Frost 31a8b77a92 Improve pg_dump regression tests and code coverage
These improvements bring the lines-of-code coverage of pg_dump.c up to
87.7% (at least using LCOV 1.12, 1.11 seems to differ slightly).  Nearly
every function is covered, three of the four which aren't are only
called when talking to older PG instances.

There is more which can, and should, be done here to improve the
coverage but it's past time to see what the buildfarm thinks of this.

What has been added:

- Coverage for many more command-line options
- Use command_fails_like instead of command_exit_is
- Operator classes, operator families
- Text search configuration, templates, parsers, dictionaries
- FDWs, servers, foreign tables
- Materialized views
- Improved Publications / Subscriptions test (though this needs work,
  see PG10 open items and tests marked with XXX in 002_pg_dump.pl)
- Unlogged tables
- Partitioned tables
- Additional ACL testing for various object types

There is room for improvement, specifically:

- Various type-based option (alignment, storage, etc)
- Composite type collation
- Extra Procedural language functions (inline, validator)
- Different function options (SRF, Transform, config, security definer,
  cost, leakproof)
- OpClass options (default, storage, order by, recheck)
- OpFamily options (order by, recheck)
- Aggregate functions (combinefunc, serialfunc, deserialfunc, etc)
- Text Search parser 'headline'
- Text Search template 'init'
- FDW options (handler, validator, options)
- Server options (type, version, options)
- User mapping options
- Default ACLs for sequences, types
- Security labels
- View circular dependencies (last function that needs coverage)
- Toast table autovacuum options
- Replica identity options
- Independent indexes (plus marking them as clustered on)
- Deferrable / initially deferred constraints
- Independent domain constraints

There's bits of extension pg_dump'ing also not covered, but those will
need to go into test_pg_dump (such as having a filter for config
tables).

Last, but not least, this approximately halves the number of tests run
with 'ok()' by removing the ok()-based checking of if all runs are
covered by each test.  Instead, 002_pg_dump.pl will just exit out in
such a case (with a message in the log file).  In general, when adding
tests, cover all runs unless there is a very good reason not to (such as
adding a 'catch-all' case).  With these changes, the resulting output
and number of "tests" run is actually reduced.
