AF_INET is apparently defined in something that's pulled in automatically
on Linux, but the buildfarm says that's not true everywhere. Comparing
to network_gist.c suggests that including <sys/socket.h> ought to fix it,
and the POSIX standard concurs.
This seems to offer significantly better search performance than the
existing GiST opclass for inet/cidr, at least on data with a wide mix
of network mask lengths. (That may suggest that the data splitting
heuristics in the GiST opclass could be improved.)

If you have previously pinned a segment and decide that you don't
actually want to keep it around until shutdown, this new API lets you
remove the pin. This is pretty trivial except on Windows, where it
requires closing the duplicate handle that was used to implement the
pin.

Previously, the spgSplitTuple action could only create a new upper tuple
containing a single labeled node. This made it useless for opclasses
that prefer to work with fixed sets of nodes (labeled or otherwise),
which meant that restrictive prefixes could not be used with such
node definitions. Change the output field set for the choose() method
to allow it to specify any valid node set for the new upper tuple,
and to specify which of these nodes to place the modified lower tuple in.
In addition to its primary use for fixed node sets, this feature could
allow existing opclasses that use variable node sets to skip a separate
spgAddNode action when splitting a tuple, by setting up the node needed
for the incoming value as part of the spgSplitTuple action. However, care
would have to be taken to add the extra node only when it would not make
the tuple bigger than before. (spgAddNode can enlarge the tuple,
spgSplitTuple can't.)
This is a prerequisite for an upcoming SP-GiST inet opclass, but is
being committed separately to increase the visibility of the API change.
In passing, improve the documentation about the traverse-values feature
that was added by commit ccd6eb49a.

Merge several copies of "copy an inet value and adjust the mask length"
code to create a single, conveniently C-callable function. This function
is exported for future use by inet SPGiST support, but it's good cleanup
anyway since we had three slightly-different-for-no-good-reason copies.

Due to an error in the abbreviated key abort logic, the most recently
processed SortTuple could be incorrectly marked NULL, resulting in an
incorrect final sort order.
In the worst case, this could result in a corrupt btree index, which
would need to be rebuild using REINDEX. However, abbrevation doesn't
abort very often, not all data types use it, and only one tuple would
end up in the wrong place, so the practical impact of this mistake may
be somewhat limited.

Remove the plpgsql wrapping that hides the context. So now the test
will fail if the work doesn't actually happen in a parallel worker. Run
the test in its own test group to ensure it won't run out of resources
for that.
It is redundant with appendConnStrVal(), which became an extern function
in commit 41f18f021a. This changes the
handling of out-of-memory and of certain inputs for which quoting is
optional, but pg_basebackup has no need for unusual treatment thereof.
The original coding here was not nearly careful enough about quoting
special characters, and it didn't get corner cases right for constructing
the pg_ctl path either. Use join_path_components() and appendShellString()
to do it honestly, so that the string will more likely work if blindly
copied-and-pasted.
While at it, teach appendShellString() not to quote strings that clearly
don't need it, so that the output from initdb doesn't become uglier than
it was before in typical cases where quoting is not needed.

Also convert a few joins to pg_database to left joins, in the same spirit,

Obvious brain fade in set_rel_consider_parallel(). Noticed it while
adjusting the adjacent RTE_FUNCTION case.
In 9.6, also make the code look more like what I just did in HEAD
by removing the unnecessary function_rte_parallel_ok subroutine
(it does nothing that expression_tree_walker wouldn't do).
We need to scan the whole parse tree for parallel-unsafe functions.
If there are none, we'll later need to determine whether particular
subtrees contain any parallel-restricted functions. The previous coding
retained no knowledge from the first scan, even though this is very
wasteful in the common case where the query contains only parallel-safe
functions. We can bypass all of the later scans by remembering that fact.
This provides a small but measurable speed improvement when the case
applies, and shouldn't cost anything when it doesn't.

Clobbering errno during cleanup after an error is an oft-repeated, easy
to make mistake. Deal with it here as everywhere else, by saving it
aside and restoring after cleanup, before ereport'ing.
In passing, add a missing errcode declaration in another ereport() call
in the same file, which I noticed while skimming the file looking for
similar problems.
Backpatch to 9.4, where this code was introduced.
pcolor was used to represent function arguments that are nominally of
type color, but when using a pre-ANSI C compiler would be passed as the
promoted integer type. We really don't need that anymore.
The regex library used to have a notion of a "collating element" that was
distinct from a "character", but Henry Spencer never actually implemented
his planned support for multi-character collating elements, and the Tcl
crew ripped out most of the stubs for that years ago. The only thing left
that distinguished the "celt" typedef from the "chr" typedef was that
"celt" was supposed to also be able to hold the not-a-character "NOCELT"
value. However, NOCELT was not used anywhere after the MCCE stub removal
changes, which means there's no need for celt to be different from chr.
Removing the separate typedef simplifies matters and also removes a trap
for the unwary, in that celt is signed while chr may not be, so comparisons
could mean different things. There's no bug there today because we
restrict CHR_MAX to be less than INT_MAX, but I think there may have been
such bugs before we did that, and there could be again if anyone ever
decides to fool with the range of chr.
This patch also removes assorted unnecessary casts to "chr" of values
that are already chrs. Many of these seem to be leftover from days when
the code was compatible with pre-ANSI C.
On some buildfarm animals the isolationtest added in 07ef0351 failed, as

As usual, we've been pretty awful about maintaining these counts.

It's probably wrong further back, but the lack of --help=foo

The upstream XSLT stylesheets use some very general XPath expressions in
some places that end up being very slow. We can optimize them with
knowledge about the DocBook document structure and our particular use
thereof. For example, when counting preceding chapters to get a number
for the current chapter, we only need to count preceding sibling
nodes (more or less) instead of searching through the entire node tree
for chapter elements.
This change attacks the slowest pieces as identified by xsltproc
--profile. This makes the HTML build roughly 10 times faster, resulting
in the new total build time being about the same as the old DSSSL-based
build. Some of the non-HTML build targets (especially FO) will also
benefit a bit, but they have not been specifically analyzed.
With this, also remove the pg.fast parameter, which was previously a
hack to get the build to a manageable speed.

This file had some unusual comment layout. Most of the comments
introducing structs ended up to the right of the screen and following
the start of the struct. Some comments for struct members ended up
after the member definition.
Fix that by moving comments consistently before what they are
describing. Also add missing struct tags where missing so that it is
easier to tell what the struct is.
All we need is 4 bytes at the moment, for MD5 authentication. But in
upcomint patches for SCRAM authentication, SCRAM will need a salt of

INSERT .. ON CONFLICT runs a pre-check of the possible conflicting
constraints before performing the actual speculative insertion. In case
the inserted tuple included TOASTed columns the ON CONFLICT condition
would be handled correctly in case the conflict was caught by the
pre-check, but if two transactions entered the speculative insertion
phase at the same time, one would have to re-try, and the code for
aborting a speculative insertion did not handle deleting the
speculatively inserted TOAST datums correctly.
TOAST deletion would fail with "ERROR: attempted to delete invisible
tuple" as we attempted to remove the TOAST tuples using
simple_heap_delete which reasoned that the given tuples should not be
visible to the command that wrote them.
This commit updates the heap_abort_speculative() function which aborts
the conflicting tuple to use itself, via toast_delete, for deleting
associated TOAST datums. Like before, the inserted toast rows are not
marked as being speculative.
This commit also adds a isolationtester spec test, exercising the
relevant code path. Unfortunately 9.5 cannot handle two waiting
sessions, and thus cannot execute this test.

regexp_match() is like regexp_matches(), but it disallows the 'g' flag
and in consequence does not need to return a set. Instead, it returns
a simple text array value, or NULL if there's no match. Previously people
usually got that behavior with a sub-select, but this way is considerably
more efficient.
Documentation adjusted so that regexp_match() is presented first and then
regexp_matches() is introduced as a more complicated version. This is
a bit historically revisionist but seems pedagogically better.

Slot creation did not clear all fields upon creation. After start the

the shared memory of a previously existing logical slot, catalog_xmin

likely, zero all of ReplicationSlotPersistentData, and re-order the

In some cases, exiting out of a plpgsql statement due to an error, then
catching the error in a surrounding exception block, led to leakage of
temporary data the statement was working with, because we kept all such
data in the function-lifespan SPI Proc context. Iterating such behavior
many times within one function call thus led to noticeable memory bloat.
To fix, create an additional memory context meant to have statement
lifespan. Since many plpgsql statements, particularly the simpler/more
common ones, don't need this, create it only on demand. Reset this context
at the end of any statement that uses it, and arrange for exception cleanup
to reset it too, thereby fixing the memory-leak issue. Allow a stack of
such contexts to exist to handle cases where a compound statement needs
statement-lifespan data that persists across calls of inner statements.
While at it, clean up code and improve comments referring to the existing
short-term memory context, which by plpgsql convention is the per-tuple
context of the eval_econtext ExprContext. We now uniformly refer to that
as the eval_mcontext, whereas the new statement-lifespan memory contexts
are called stmt_mcontext.
This change adds some context-creation overhead, but on the other hand
it allows removal of some retail pfree's in favor of context resets.
On balance it seems to be about a wash performance-wise.
In principle this is a bug fix, but it seems too invasive for a back-patch,
and the infrequency of complaints weighs against taking the risk in the
back branches. So we'll fix it only in HEAD, at least for now.

We implement a dozen or so parameterless functions that the SQL standard
defines special syntax for. Up to now, that was done by converting them
into more or less ad-hoc constructs such as "'now'::text::date". That's
messy for multiple reasons: it exposes what should be implementation
details to users, and performance is worse than it needs to be in several
cases. To improve matters, invent a new expression node type
SQLValueFunction that can represent any of these parameterless functions.

This is somewhat cosmetic, since as long as you know what you are looking
at, "10.0" is a serviceable substitute for "10". But there is a potential
for confusion between version numbers with minor numbers and those without
--- we don't want people asking "why is psql saying 10.0 when my server is
10.2". Therefore, back-patch as far as practical, which turns out to be
9.3. I could have redone the patch to use fprintf(stderr) in place of
psql_error(), but it seems more work than is warranted for branches that
will be EOL or nearly so by the time v10 comes out.
Although only psql seems to contain any code that needs this, I chose
to put the support function into fe_utils, since it seems likely we'll
need it in other client programs in future. (In 9.3-9.5, use dumputils.c,
the predecessor of fe_utils/string_utils.c.)
In HEAD, also fix the backend code that whines about loadable-library
version mismatch. I don't see much need to back-patch that.
Up to now we've manually adjusted these numbers in several different
Makefiles at the start of each development cycle. While that's not
much work, it's easily forgotten, so let's get rid of it by setting
the SO_MINOR_VERSION values directly from $(MAJORVERSION).
In the case of libpq, this dev cycle's value of SO_MINOR_VERSION happens
to be "10" anyway, so this switch is transparent. For ecpg's shared
libraries, this will result in skipping one or two minor version numbers
between v9.6 and v10, which seems like no big problem; and it was a bit
inconsistent that they didn't have equal minor version numbers anyway.
