The placement of the fall-through comment in this code appears not to
work to suppress the warning in recent gcc.  Move it to the bottom of

Noah Misch 328c70997b Optimize RelationFindReplTupleSeq() for CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS.
Specifically, remember lookup_type_cache() results instead of retrieving
them once per comparison.  Under CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, this reduced
src/test/subscription/t/001_rep_changes.pl elapsed time by an order of
magnitude, which reduced check-world elapsed time by 9%.

Noah Misch 4216858122 When WalSndCaughtUp, sleep only in WalSndWaitForWal().
Before sleeping, WalSndWaitForWal() sends a keepalive if MyWalSnd->write
< sentPtr.  That is important in logical replication.  When the latest
physical LSN yields no logical replication messages (a common case),
that keepalive elicits a reply, and processing the reply updates
pg_stat_replication.replay_lsn.  WalSndLoop() lacks that; when
WalSndLoop() slept, replay_lsn advancement could stall until
wal_receiver_status_interval elapsed.  This sometimes stalled
src/test/subscription/t/001_rep_changes.pl for up to 10s.

Tom Lane 969f9d0b4b Make EXPLAIN report maximum hashtable usage across multiple rescans.
Before discarding the old hash table in ExecReScanHashJoin, capture
its statistics, ensuring that we report the maximum hashtable size
across repeated rescans of the hash input relation.  We can repurpose
the existing code for reporting hashtable size in parallel workers
to help with this, making the patch pretty small.  This also ensures
that if rescans happen within parallel workers, we get the correct
maximums across all instances.

Tom Lane 5c27bce7f3 Clear dangling pointer to avoid bogus EXPLAIN printout in a corner case.
ExecReScanHashJoin will destroy the join's hash table if it expects
that the inner relation will produce different rows on rescan.
Up to now it's not bothered to clear the additional pointer to that
hash table that exists in the child HashState node.  However, it's
possible for the query to terminate without building a fresh hash
table (this happens if the outer relation is found to be empty
during the final rescan).  So we can end with a dangling pointer
to a deleted hash table.  That was harmless originally, but since
9.0 EXPLAIN ANALYZE has used that pointer to print hash table
statistics.  In debug builds this reproducibly results in garbage
statistics.  In non-debug builds there's frequently no ill effects,
but in principle one could get wrong EXPLAIN ANALYZE output, or
perhaps even a crash if free() has released the hashtable memory
back to the OS.

To fix, just make sure we clear the additional pointer when destroying
the hash table.  In problematic cases, EXPLAIN ANALYZE will then print
no hashtable statistics (reverting to its pre-9.0 behavior).  This isn't
ideal, but since the problem manifests only in unusual corner cases,
it's hard to justify taking any risks to do better in the back
branches.  A follow-on patch will improve matters in HEAD.

Improve mark_hl_fragments()'s test for overlapping cover strings:

Tom Lane a4d4f59196 Doc: improve documentation about ts_headline() function.

Tom Lane c9b0c678d3 Fix default text search parser's ts_headline code for phrase queries.
This code could produce very poor results when asked to highlight a
string based on a query using phrase-match operators.  The root cause
is that hlCover(), which is supposed to find a minimal substring that
matches the query, was written assuming that word position is not
significant.  I'm only 95% convinced that its algorithm was correct even
for plain AND/OR queries; but it definitely fails completely for phrase
matches, causing it to possibly not identify a cover string at all.

Hence, rewrite hlCover() with a less-tense algorithm that just tries
all the possible substrings, earlier and shorter ones first.  (This is
not as bad as it sounds performance-wise, because all of the string
matching has been done already: the repeated tsquery match checks
boil down to pointer comparisons.)

Unfortunately, since that approach produces more candidate cover
strings than before, it also exposes that there were bugs in the
heuristics in mark_hl_words() for selecting a best cover string.
Fixes there include:
* Do not apply the ShortWord filter to words that appear in the query.
* Remove a misguided optimization for quickly rejecting a cover.
* Fix order-of-operation bug that could cause computation of a
wrong figure of merit (poslen) when shortening a cover.
* Change the preference rule so that candidate headlines that do not
include their whole cover string (after MaxWords trimming) are lowest
priority, since they may not actually satisfy the user's query.

This results in some changes in existing regression test cases,
but they all seem reasonable.  Note in particular that the tests
involving strings like "1 2 3" were previously being affected by
the ShortWord filter, masking the normal matching behavior.

Per bug #16345 from Augustinas Jokubauskas; the new test cases are
based on that example.  Back-patch to 9.6 where phrase search was
added to tsquery.

Peter Eisentraut e92e4a2b68 Fix CREATE TABLE LIKE INCLUDING GENERATED column order issue
CREATE TABLE LIKE INCLUDING GENERATED would fail if a generated column
referred to a column with a higher attribute number.  This is because
the column mapping mechanism created the mapping incrementally as
columns are added.  This was sufficient for previous uses of that
mechanism (omitting dropped columns), and it also happened to work if
generated columns only referred to columns with lower attribute
numbers, but here it failed.

This fix is to build the attribute mapping in a separate loop before
processing the columns in detail.

Tomas Vondra cea09246e5 Stabilize incremental_sort tests

Fixed by increasing the size of test tables a bit, making the Sort a bit
more expensive than Incremental Sort. The tests were constructed to test

break that.

Etsuro Fujita c8434d64ce Allow partitionwise joins in more cases.
Previously, the partitionwise join technique only allowed partitionwise
join when input partitioned tables had exactly the same partition
bounds.  This commit extends the technique to some cases when the tables
have different partition bounds, by using an advanced partition-matching
algorithm introduced by this commit.  For both the input partitioned
tables, the algorithm checks whether every partition of one input
partitioned table only matches one partition of the other input
partitioned table at most, and vice versa.  In such a case the join
between the tables can be broken down into joins between the matching
partitions, so the algorithm produces the pairs of the matching
partitions, plus the partition bounds for the join relation, to allow
partitionwise join for computing the join.  Currently, the algorithm
works for list-partitioned and range-partitioned tables, but not
hash-partitioned tables.  See comments in partition_bounds_merge().

Tom Lane 41a194f491 Fix circle_in to accept "(x,y),r" as it's advertised to do.
Our documentation describes four allowed input syntaxes for circles,
but the regression tests tried only three ... with predictable
consequences.  Remarkably, this has been wrong since the circle
datatype was added in 1997, but nobody noticed till now.

Andres Freund 75848bc744 snapshot scalability: Move delayChkpt from PGXACT to PGPROC.
The goal of separating hotly accessed per-backend data from PGPROC
into PGXACT is to make accesses fast (GetSnapshotData() in
particular). But delayChkpt is not actually accessed frequently; only
when starting a checkpoint. As it is frequently modified (multiple
times in the course of a single transaction), storing it in the same
cacheline as hotly accessed data unnecessarily dirties a contended
cacheline.

Therefore move delayChkpt to PGPROC.

This is part of a larger series of patches intending to improve
GetSnapshotData() scalability. It is committed and pushed separately,
as it is independently beneficial (small but measurable win, limited
by the other frequent modifications of PGXACT).

Tomas Vondra 2b88fdde30 Track SLRU page hits in SimpleLruReadPage_ReadOnly
SLRU page hits were tracked only in SimpleLruReadPage, but that's not
enough because we may hit the page in SimpleLruReadPage_ReadOnly in
which case we don't call SimpleLruReadPage at all.

Andres Freund 91c40548d5 Fix XLogReader FD leak that makes backends unusable after 2PC usage.
Before the fix every 2PC commit/abort leaked a file descriptor. As the
files are opened using BasicOpenFile(), that quickly leads to the
backend running out of file descriptors.

Once enough 2PC abort/commit have caused enough FDs to leak, any IO
in the backend will fail with "Too many open files", as
BasicOpenFilePerm() will have triggered all open files known to fd.c
to be closed.

The leak causing the problem at hand is a consequence of 0dc8ead46,
but is only exascerbated by it. Previously most XLogPageReadCB
callbacks used static variables to cache one open file, but after the
commit the cache is private to each XLogReader instance. There never
was infrastructure to close FDs at the time of XLogReaderFree, but the
way XLogReader was used limited the leak to one FD.

This commit just closes the during XLogReaderFree() if the FD is
stored in XLogReaderState.seg.ws_segno. This may not be the way to
solve this medium/long term, but at least unbreaks 2PC.

Peter Geoghegan 60cbd7751c Remove nbtree BTreeTupleSetAltHeapTID() function.
Since heap TID is supposed to be just another key attribute to the
implementation, it doesn't make much sense to have separate
BTreeTupleSetNAtts() and BTreeTupleSetAltHeapTID() functions.  Merge the
two functions together.  This slightly simplifies _bt_truncate().

Allow users to limit storage reserved by replication slots
Replication slots are useful to retain data that may be needed by a
replication system.  But experience has shown that allowing them to
retain excessive data can lead to the primary failing because of running
out of space.  This new feature allows the user to configure a maximum
amount of space to be reserved using the new option
max_slot_wal_keep_size.  Slots that overrun that space are invalidated
at checkpoint time, enabling the storage to be released.

Tom Lane b63c293bcb Allow psql's \g and \gx commands to transiently change \pset options.
We invented \gx to allow the "\pset expanded" flag to be forced on
for the duration of one command output, but that turns out to not
be nearly enough to satisfy the demand for variant output formats.
Hence, make it possible to change any pset option(s) for the duration
of a single command output, by writing "option=value ..." inside
parentheses, for example
	\g (format=csv csv_fieldsep='\t') somefile

\gx can now be understood as a shorthand for including expanded=on
inside the parentheses.

Patch by me, expanding on a proposal by Pavel Stehule

Alexander Korotkov 0f5ca02f53 Implement waiting for given lsn at transaction start
This commit adds following optional clause to BEGIN and START TRANSACTION
commands.

  WAIT FOR LSN lsn [ TIMEOUT timeout ]

New clause pospones transaction start till given lsn is applied on standby.
This clause allows user be sure, that changes previously made on primary would
be visible on standby.

New shared memory struct is used to track awaited lsn per backend.  Recovery
process wakes up backend once required lsn is applied.
