When CREATE INDEX is run on a partitioned table, create catalog entries
for an index on the partitioned table (which is just a placeholder since
the table proper has no data of its own), and recurse to create actual
indexes on the existing partitions; create them in future partitions
also.
As a convenience gadget, if the new index definition matches some
existing index in partitions, these are picked up and used instead of
creating new ones. Whichever way these indexes come about, they become
attached to the index on the parent table and are dropped alongside it,
and cannot be dropped on isolation unless they are detached first.
To support pg_dump'ing these indexes, add commands
CREATE INDEX ON ONLY <table>
(which creates the index on the parent partitioned table, without
recursing) and
ALTER INDEX ATTACH PARTITION
(which is used after the indexes have been created individually on each
partition, to attach them to the parent index). These reconstruct prior
database state exactly.

Patch from Nikita Glukhov
If a query against an inheritance tree runs concurrently with an ALTER
TABLE that's disinheriting one of the tree members, it's possible to get
a "could not find inherited attribute" error because after obtaining lock
on the removed member, make_inh_translation_list sees that its columns
have attinhcount=0 and decides they aren't the columns it's looking for.
An ideal fix, perhaps, would avoid including such a just-removed member
table in the query at all; but there seems no way to accomplish that
without adding expensive catalog rechecks or creating a likelihood of
deadlocks. Instead, let's just drop the check on attinhcount. In this
way, a query that's included a just-disinherited child will still
succeed, which is not a completely unreasonable behavior.
This problem has existed for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches. Also add an isolation test verifying related behaviors.

If we flatten a subquery whose target list contains constants or
expressions, when those output columns are used in GROUPING SET columns,
the planner was capable of doing the wrong thing by merging a pulled-up
expression into the surrounding expression during const-simplification.
Then the late processing that attempts to match subexpressions to grouping
sets would fail to match those subexpressions to grouping sets, with the
effect that they'd not go to null when expected.
To fix, wrap such subquery outputs in PlaceHolderVars, ensuring that
they preserve their separate identity throughout the planner's expression
processing. This is a bit of a band-aid, because the wrapper defeats
const-simplification even in places where it would be safe to allow.
But a nicer fix would likely be too invasive to back-patch, and the
consequences of the missed optimizations probably aren't large in most
cases.

PL/pgSQL "pins" internally generated portals so that user code cannot
close them by guessing their names. Add this functionality to PL/Perl
and PL/Python as well, preventing users from manually closing cursors
created by spi_query and plpy.cursor, respectively. (PL/Tcl does not
currently offer any cursor functionality.)
It seems incorrect to assume that the list of CkptSortItems can never
contain duplicate page numbers: concurrent activity could result in some
page getting dropped from a low-numbered buffer and later loaded into a
high-numbered buffer while BufferSync is scanning the buffer pool.
If that happened, the comparator would give self-inconsistent results,
potentially confusing qsort(). Saving one comparison step is not worth
possibly getting the sort wrong.
So far as I can tell, nothing would actually go wrong given our current
implementation of qsort(). It might get a bit slower than expected
if there were a large number of duplicates of one value, but that's
surely a probability-epsilon case. Still, the comment is wrong,
and if we ever switched to another sort implementation it might be
less forgiving.
In passing, avoid casting away const-ness of the argument pointers;
I've not seen any compiler complaints from that, but it seems likely
that some compilers would not like it.

PL/pgSQL "pins" internally generated (unnamed) portals so that user code
cannot close them by guessing their names. This logic is also useful in
other languages and really for any code. So move that logic into SPI.
An unnamed portal obtained through SPI_cursor_open() and related
functions is now automatically pinned, and SPI_cursor_close()
automatically unpins a portal that is pinned.
In the core distribution, this affects PL/Perl and PL/Python, preventing
users from manually closing cursors created by spi_query and
plpy.cursor, respectively. (PL/Tcl does not currently offer any cursor
functionality.)

The previous code gave the same error message for attempting to drop
pinned and active portals, but those are separate states, so give
separate error messages.
Previously aggregate transition and combination functions were invoked
by special case code in nodeAgg.c, evaluating input and filters
separately using the expression evaluation machinery. That turns out
to not be great for performance for several reasons:
- repeated expression evaluations have some cost
- the transition functions invocations are poorly predicted, as
commonly there are multiple aggregates in a query, resulting in the
same call-stack invoking different functions.
- filter and input computation had to be done separately
- the special case code made it hard to implement JITing of the whole
transition function invocation
Address this by building one large expression that computes input,
evaluates filters, and invokes transition functions.
This leads to moderate speedups in queries bottlenecked by aggregate
computations, and enables large speedups for similar cases once JITing
is done.
There's potential for further improvement:
- It'd be nice if we could simplify the somewhat expensive
aggstate->all_pergroups lookups.
- right now there's still an advance_transition_function invocation in
nodeAgg.c, leading to some code duplication.

As src/backend/access/transam/README says, PageGetLSN may only be called
by processes holding either exclusive lock on buffer, or a shared lock
on buffer plus buffer header lock. Therefore any place that only holds
a shared buffer lock must use BufferGetLSNAtomic instead of PageGetLSN,
which internally obtains buffer header lock prior to reading the LSN.
A few callsites failed to comply with this rule. This was detected by
running all tests under a new (not committed) assertion that verifies
PageGetLSN locking contract. All but one of the callsites that failed
the assertion are fixed by this patch. Remaining callsites were
inspected manually and determined not to need any change.
The exception (unfixed callsite) is in TestForOldSnapshot, which only
has a Page argument, making it impossible to access the corresponding
Buffer from it. Fixing that seems a much larger patch that will have to
be done separately; and that's just as well, since it was only
introduced in 9.6 and other bugs are much older.
Some of these bugs are ancient; backpatch all the way back to 9.3.

The initial implementation of list_qsort(), from commit ab7271677,
re-used the ListCells of the input list while not touching the List
header. This meant that anybody who still had a pointer to the
original header would now be in possession of a corrupted list,
a problem that seems sure to bite us eventually.
One possible solution is to re-use the original List header as well,
giving the function the semantics of update-in-place. However, that
doesn't seem like a very good idea either given the way that the
function is used in the planner: create_path functions aren't normally
supposed to modify their input lists. It doesn't look like there would
be a problem today, but it's not hard to foresee a time when modifying
a list of Paths in-place could have side-effects on some other append
path.
On the whole, and in view of the likelihood that this function might
be used in other contexts in the future, it seems best to get rid of
the micro-optimization of re-using the input list cells. Just build
a new list.

Commit ab7271677 introduced code that attempts to order the child
scans of a Parallel Append node in a way that will minimize execution
time, based on total cost and startup cost. However, it failed to
think hard about what to do when estimated costs are exactly equal;
a case that's particularly likely to occur when comparing on startup
cost. In such a case the ordering of the child paths would be left
to the whims of qsort, an algorithm that isn't even stable.
We can improve matters by applying the rule used elsewhere in the
planner: if total costs are equal, sort on startup cost, and
vice versa. When both cost estimates are exactly equal, rather
than letting qsort do something unpredictable, sort based on the
child paths' relids, which should typically result in sorting in
inheritance order. (The latter provision requires inventing a
qsort-style comparator for bitmapsets, but maybe we'll have use
for that for other reasons in future.)
This results in a few plan changes in the select_parallel test,
but those all look more reasonable than before, when the actual
underlying cost numbers are taken into account.

replorigin_drop() misunderstood the API for condition variables: it
had ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep and ConditionVariableCancelSleep
inside its test-and-sleep loop, rather than outside the loop as
intended. The net effect is a narrow race-condition window wherein,
if the process using a replication slot releases it immediately after
replorigin_drop() releases the ReplicationOriginLock, replorigin_drop()
would get into the condition variable's wait list too late and then
wait indefinitely for a signal that won't come.
Because there's a different CV for each replication slot, we can't
just move the ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep call to above the
test-and-sleep loop. What we can do, in the wake of commit 13db3b936,
is drop the ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep call entirely. This fix
depends on that commit because (at least in principle) the slot matching
the target replication origin might move around, so that once in a blue
moon successive loop iterations might involve different CVs. We can now
cope with such a scenario, at the cost of an extra trip through the
retry loop.
(There are ways we could fix this bug without depending on that commit,
but they're all a lot more complicated than this way.)

The original coding here insisted that callers manually cancel any prepared
sleep for one condition variable before starting a sleep on another one.
While that's not a huge burden today, it seems like a gotcha that will bite
us in future if the use of condition variables increases; anything we can
do to make the use of this API simpler and more robust is attractive.
Hence, allow these functions to automatically switch their attention to
a different CV when required. This is safe for the same reason it was OK
for commit aced5a92b to let a broadcast operation cancel any prepared CV
sleep: whenever we return to the other test-and-sleep loop, we will
automatically re-prepare that CV, paying at most an extra test of that
loop's exit condition.
Back-patch to v10 where condition variables were introduced. Ordinarily
we would probably not back-patch a change like this, but since it does not
invalidate any coding pattern that was legal before, it seems safe enough.
Furthermore, there's an open bug in replorigin_drop() for which the
simplest fix requires this. Even if we chose to fix that in some more
complicated way, the hazard would remain that we might back-patch some
other bug fix that requires this behavior.
