wal_compression gains a new value, "zstd", to allow the compression of
full-page images using the compression method of the same name.
Compression is done using the default level recommended by the library,
as of ZSTD_CLEVEL_DEFAULT = 3. Some benchmarking has shown that it
could make sense to use a level lower for the FPI compression, like 1 or
2, as the compression rate did not change much with a bit less CPU
consumed, but any tests done would only cover few scenarios so it is
hard to come to a clear conclusion. Anyway, there is no reason to not
use the default level instead, which is the level recommended by the
library so it should be fine for most cases.
zstd outclasses easily pglz, and is better than LZ4 where one wants to
have more compression at the cost of extra CPU but both are good enough
in their own scenarios, so the choice between one or the other of these
comes to a study of the workload patterns and the schema involved,
mainly.
This commit relies heavily on 4035cd5, that reshaped the code creating
and restoring full-page writes to be aware of the compression type,
making this integration straight-forward.
This patch borrows some early work from Andrey Borodin, though the patch
got a complete rewrite.

Per project policy, all system and library headers need to be declared
in the backend code after "postgres.h" and before the internal headers,
but 4035cd5 broke this policy when adding support for LZ4 in
wal_compression.
Noticed while reviewing the patch to add support for zstd in this area.
This only impacts HEAD, so there is no need for a back-patch.
Add ability to scan all entries sequentially to dshash. The interface is
similar but a bit different both from that of dynahash and simple dshash
search functions. The most significant differences is that dshash's interfac
always needs a call to dshash_seq_term when scan ends. Another is
locking. Dshash holds partition lock when returning an entry,
dshash_seq_next() also holds lock when returning an entry but callers
shouldn't release it, since the lock is essential to continue a scan. The
seqscan interface allows entry deletion while a scan is in progress using
dshash_delete_current().

Both client-side compression and server-side compression are now
supported for zstd. In addition, a backup compressed by the server
using zstd can now be decompressed by the client in order to

This new function extracts common code from PrepareQuery() and

pg_analyze_and_rewrite_fixedparams() and
pg_analyze_and_rewrite_withcb().
To unify these two code paths, this makes PrepareQuery() now subject

TRACE_POSTGRESQL_QUERY_REWRITE_START(). PrepareQuery() no longer
checks whether a utility statement was specified. The grammar doesn't
allow that anyway, and exec_parse_message() supports it, so

Set-returning functions that use the Materialize mode, creating a
tuplestore to include all the tuples returned in a set rather than doing
so in multiple calls, use roughly the same set of steps to prepare
ReturnSetInfo for this job:
- Check if ReturnSetInfo supports returning a tuplestore and if the
materialize mode is enabled.
- Create a tuplestore for all the tuples part of the returned set in the
per-query memory context, stored in ReturnSetInfo->setResult.
- Build a tuple descriptor mostly from get_call_result_type(), then
stored in ReturnSetInfo->setDesc. Note that there are some cases where
the SRF's tuple descriptor has to be the one specified by the function
caller.
This refactoring is done so as there are (well, should be) no behavior
changes in any of the in-core functions refactored, and the centralized
function that checks and sets up the function's ReturnSetInfo can be
controlled with a set of bits32 options. Two of them prove to be
necessary now:
- SRF_SINGLE_USE_EXPECTED to use expectedDesc as tuple descriptor, as
expected by the function's caller.
- SRF_SINGLE_BLESS to validate the tuple descriptor for the SRF.
The same initialization pattern is simplified in 28 places per my
count as of src/backend/, shaving up to ~900 lines of code. These
mostly come from the removal of the per-query initializations and the
sanity checks now grouped in a single location. There are more
locations that could be simplified in contrib/, that are left for a
follow-up cleanup.

There are three parallel ways to call parse/analyze: with fixed
parameters, with variable parameters, and by supplying your own parser
callback. Some of the involved functions were confusingly named and
made this API structure more confusing. This patch renames some
functions to make this clearer:
parse_analyze() -> parse_analyze_fixedparams()
pg_analyze_and_rewrite() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_fixedparams()
(Otherwise one might think this variant doesn't accept parameters, but
in fact all three ways accept parameters.)
pg_analyze_and_rewrite_params() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_withcb()
(Before, and also when considering pg_analyze_and_rewrite(), one might
think this is the only way to pass parameters. Moreover, the parser
callback doesn't necessarily need to parse only parameters, it's just
one of the things it could do.)
parse_fixed_parameters() -> setup_parse_fixed_parameters()
parse_variable_parameters() -> setup_parse_variable_parameters()
(These functions don't actually do any parsing, they just set up
callbacks to use during parsing later.)
This patch also adds some const decorations to the fixed-parameters
API, so the distinction from the variable-parameters API is more
clear.

This macro cast the result to BlockNumber after shifting, not before,
which is the wrong thing. Per the C spec, the uint16 fields would
promote to int not unsigned int, so that (for 32-bit int) the shift
potentially shifts a nonzero bit into the sign position. I doubt
there are any production systems where this would actually end with
the wrong answer, but it is undefined behavior per the C spec, and
clang's -fsanitize=undefined option reputedly warns about it on some
platforms. (I can't reproduce that right now, but the code is
undeniably wrong per spec.) It's easy to fix by casting to
BlockNumber (uint32) in the proper places.

this patch does so either, but it gets every failure I observe in

pg_rewind generates and executes internally up to two commands to work

- postgres -C to retrieve the value of restore_command, when using
-c/--restore-target-wal.
- postgres --single to enforce recovery once and get the target cluster

Both commands have been applying incorrect quoting rules, which could
lead to failures when for example using a target data directory with
unexpected characters like CRLFs. Those commands are now generated with
PQExpBuffer, making use of string_utils.h to quote those commands as
they should. We may extend those commands in the future with more

It was decided (refer to the Discussion link below) that the stats

subscription workers.
This patch changes the pg_stat_subscription_workers view (introduced by

apply_error_count and sync_error_count, and has one entry for

the error message would be stored in another way in the future which is
more reliable and persistent.
After removing these error details, there is no longer any relation
information, so the subscription statistics are now a cluster-wide
statistics.

SPI_commit previously left it up to the caller to recover from any error
occurring during commit. Since that's complicated and requires use of
low-level xact.c facilities, it's not too surprising that no caller got
it right. Let's move the responsibility for cleanup into spi.c. Doing
that requires redefining SPI_commit as starting a new transaction, so
that it becomes equivalent to SPI_commit_and_chain except that you get
default transaction characteristics instead of preserving the prior
transaction's characteristics. We can make this pretty transparent
API-wise by redefining SPI_start_transaction() as a no-op. Callers
that expect to do something in between might be surprised, but
available evidence is that no callers do so.
Having made that API redefinition, we can fix this mess by having
SPI_commit[_and_chain] trap errors and start a new, clean transaction
before re-throwing the error. Likewise for SPI_rollback[_and_chain].
Some cleanup is also needed in AtEOXact_SPI, which was nowhere near
smart enough to deal with SPI contexts nested inside a committing
context.
While plperl and pltcl need no changes beyond removing their now-useless
SPI_start_transaction() calls, plpython needs some more work because it
hadn't gotten the memo about catching commit/rollback errors in the
first place. Such an error resulted in longjmp'ing out of the Python
interpreter, which leaks Python stack entries at present and is reported
to crash Python 3.11 altogether. Add the missing logic to catch such
errors and convert them into Python exceptions.
We are probably going to have to back-patch this once Python 3.11 ships,
but it's a sufficiently basic change that I'm a bit nervous about doing
so immediately. Let's let it bake awhile in HEAD first.

requires a further refinement: the "start of query" isn't necessarily

then we risk dropping text for an error that the application has not

still in flight, leave errorMessage alone; reset it when we begin
to process the next query in pqPipelineProcessQueue.

Formerly div_var() had "fast path" short division code that was
significantly faster when the divisor was just one base-NBASE digit,
but otherwise used long division.
This commit adds a new function div_var_int() that divides by an
arbitrary 32-bit integer, using the fast short division algorithm, and
updates both div_var() and div_var_fast() to use it for one and two
digit divisors. In the case of div_var(), this is slightly faster in
the one-digit case, because it avoids some digit array copying, and is
much faster in the two-digit case where it replaces long division. For
div_var_fast(), it is much faster in both cases because the main
div_var_fast() algorithm is optimised for larger inputs.
Additionally, optimise exp() and ln() by using div_var_int(), allowing
a NumericVar to be replaced by an int in a couple of places, most
notably in the Taylor series code. This produces a significant speedup
of exp(), ln() and the numeric_big regression test.

In the standard numeric division algorithm, the inner loop multiplies
the divisor by the next quotient digit and subtracts that from the
working dividend. As suggested by the original code comment, the
separate "carry" and "borrow" variables (from the multiplication and

variable. Doing so significantly improves performance, as well as
simplifying the code.

This loop is basically the same as the inner loop of mul_var(), which
was auto-vectorized in commit 8870917623, but the compiler will only
consider auto-vectorizing the div_var_fast() loop if the assignment
target div[qi + i] is replaced by div_qi[i], where div_qi = &div[qi].
Additionally, since the compiler doesn't know that qdigit is
guaranteed to fit in a 16-bit NumericDigit, cast it to NumericDigit
before multiplying to make the resulting auto-vectorized code more
efficient (avoiding unnecessary multiplication of the high 16 bits).
While at it, per suggestion from Tom Lane, change var1digit in
mul_var() to be a NumericDigit rather than an int for the same
reason. This actually makes no difference with modern gcc, but it
might help other compilers generate more efficient assembly.

Perl can be convinced to execute user-defined code during compilation
of a plperl function (or at least a plperlu function). That's not
such a big problem as long as the activity is confined within the
Perl interpreter, and it's not clear we could do anything about that
anyway. However, if such code tries to use plperl's SPI functions,
we have a bigger problem. In the first place, those functions are
likely to crash because current_call_data->prodesc isn't set up yet.
In the second place, because it isn't set up, we lack critical info
such as whether the function is supposed to be read-only. And in
the third place, this path allows code execution during function
validation, which is strongly discouraged because of the potential
for security exploits. Hence, reject execution of the SPI functions
until compilation is finished.
While here, add check_spi_usage_allowed() calls to various functions
that hadn't gotten the memo about checking that. I think that perhaps
plperl_sv_to_literal may have been intentionally omitted on the grounds
that it was safe at the time; but if so, the addition of transforms
functionality changed that. The others are more recently added and
seem to be flat-out oversights.

Commit 49c9d9fc unified VACUUM VERBOSE and autovacuum logging. It
neglected to remove an old vacrel field that was only used by the old
VACUUM VERBOSE, so remove it now.
The previous num_tuples approach doesn't seem to have any real advantage
over the approach VACUUM VERBOSE takes now (also the approach used by
the autovacuum logging code), which is to show new_rel_tuples.
new_rel_tuples is the possibly-estimated total number of tuples left in
the table, whereas num_tuples meant the number of tuples encountered
during the VACUUM operation, after pruning, without regard for tuples
from pages skipped via the visibility map.
In passing, reorder a related vacrel field for consistency.
The buffer argument hasn't been used since the function was first added
by commit bbb6e559c4. The sibling heap_prepare_freeze_tuple function
doesn't have such an argument either. Remove it.
realloc() will return NULL on a failed reallocation, so the destination
pointer must be inspected to avoid null pointer dereference. Further,
assigning the return value to the source pointer leak the allocation in
the case of reallocation failure. Fix by using pg_realloc instead which

If a checkpoint happens during sorted GiST index build, and the system
crashes after the checkpoint and after the index build has finished,
the data written to the index before the checkpoint started could be
lost. The checkpoint won't fsync it, and it won't be replayed at crash
recovery either. Fix by calling smgrimmedsync() after the index build,
just like in B-tree index build.

This makes more consistent the SRF-related checks in the area of
PL/pgSQL, PL/Perl, PL/Tcl, pageinspect and some of the JSON worker
functions, making it easier to grep for the same error patterns through
the code, reducing a bit the translation work.
It is worth noting that each_worker_jsonb()/each_worker() in jsonfuncs.c
and pageinspect's brin_page_items() were doing a check on expectedDesc
that is not required as they fetch their tuple descriptor directly from
get_call_result_type(). This looks like a set of copy-paste errors that
have spread over the years.
This commit is a continuation of the changes begun in 07daca5, for any
remaining code paths on sight. Like fcc2817, this makes the code more
consistent, easing the integration of a larger patch that will refactor
the way tuplestores are created and checked in a good portion of the
set-returning functions present in core.
I have worked my way through the changes of this patch by myself, and
Ranier has proposed the same changes in a different thread in parallel,
though there were some inconsistencies related in expectedDesc in what
was proposed by him.

The following set-returning functions have their logic simplified, to be
more consistent with other in-core areas:
- pg_prepared_statement()'s tuple descriptor is now created with
get_call_result_type() instead of being created from scratch, saving
from some duplication with pg_proc.dat.
- show_all_file_settings(), similarly, now uses get_call_result_type()
to build its tuple descriptor instead of creating it from scratch.
- pg_options_to_table() made use of a static routine called only once.
This commit removes this internal routine to make the function easier to
follow.
- pg_config() was using a unique logic style, doing checks on the tuple
descriptor passed down in expectedDesc, but it has no need to do so.
This switches the function to use a tuplestore with a tuple descriptor
retrieved from get_call_result_type(), instead.
This simplifies an upcoming patch aimed at refactoring the way
tuplestores are created and checked in set-returning functions, this
change making sense as its own independent cleanup by shaving some
code.

This feature adds row filtering for publication tables. When a publication
is defined or modified, an optional WHERE clause can be specified. Rows
that don't satisfy this WHERE clause will be filtered out. This allows a
set of tables to be partially replicated. The row filter is per table. A
new row filter can be added simply by specifying a WHERE clause after the
table name. The WHERE clause must be enclosed by parentheses.
The row filter WHERE clause for a table added to a publication that
publishes UPDATE and/or DELETE operations must contain only columns that
are covered by REPLICA IDENTITY. The row filter WHERE clause for a table
added to a publication that publishes INSERT can use any column. If the
row filter evaluates to NULL, it is regarded as "false". The WHERE clause
only allows simple expressions that don't have user-defined functions,
user-defined operators, user-defined types, user-defined collations,
non-immutable built-in functions, or references to system columns. These
restrictions could be addressed in the future.
If you choose to do the initial table synchronization, only data that
satisfies the row filters is copied to the subscriber. If the subscription
has several publications in which a table has been published with
different WHERE clauses, rows that satisfy ANY of the expressions will be
copied. If a subscriber is a pre-15 version, the initial table
synchronization won't use row filters even if they are defined in the
publisher.
The row filters are applied before publishing the changes. If the
subscription has several publications in which the same table has been
published with different filters (for the same publish operation), those
expressions get OR'ed together so that rows satisfying any of the
expressions will be replicated.
This means all the other filters become redundant if (a) one of the
publications have no filter at all, (b) one of the publications was
created using FOR ALL TABLES, (c) one of the publications was created
using FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA and the table belongs to that same schema.
If your publication contains a partitioned table, the publication
parameter publish_via_partition_root determines if it uses the partition's
row filter (if the parameter is false, the default) or the root
partitioned table's row filter.
Psql commands \dRp+ and \d <table-name> will display any row filters.

"regress" is a new mode added to compute_query_id aimed at facilitating
regression testing when a module computing query IDs is loaded into the
backend, like pg_stat_statements. It works the same way as "auto",
meaning that query IDs are computed if a module enables it, except that
query IDs are hidden in EXPLAIN outputs to ensure regression output
stability.
Like any GUCs of the kind (force_parallel_mode, etc.), this new
configuration can be added to an instance's postgresql.conf, or just
passed down with PGOPTIONS at command level. compute_query_id uses an
enum for its set of option values, meaning that this addition ensures
ABI compatibility.
Using this new configuration mode allows installcheck-world to pass when
running the tests on an instance with pg_stat_statements enabled,
stabilizing the test output while checking the paths doing query ID
computations.

Commit 75d22069e tried to throw a warning for setting a custom GUC whose
prefix belongs to a previously-loaded extension, if there is no such GUC
defined by the extension. But that caused unstable behavior with
parallel workers, because workers don't necessarily load extensions and
GUCs in the same order their leader did. To make that work safely, we
have to completely disallow the case. We now actually remove any such
GUCs at the time of initial extension load, and then throw an error not
just a warning if you try to add one later. While this might create a
compatibility issue for a few people, the improvement in error-detection
capability seems worth it; it's hard to believe that there's any good
use-case for choosing such GUC names.
This also un-reverts 5609cc01c (Rename EmitWarningsOnPlaceholders() to

When cleaning up temporary objects during process exit the cleanup could fail
with:
FATAL: cannot fetch toast data without an active snapshot
The bug is caused by RemoveTempRelationsCallback() not setting up a
snapshot. If an object with toasted catalog data needs to be cleaned up,
init_toast_snapshot() could fail with the above error.
Most of the time however the the problem is masked due to cached catalog
snapshots being returned by GetOldestSnapshot(). But dropping an object can
cause catalog invalidations to be emitted. If no further catalog accesses are
necessary between the invalidation processing and the next toast datum
deletion, the bug becomes visible.
It's easy to miss this bug because it typically happens after clients
disconnect and the FATAL error just ends up in the log.
Luckily temporary table cleanup at the next use of the same temporary schema
or during DISCARD ALL does not have the same problem.
Fix the bug by pushing a snapshot in RemoveTempRelationsCallback(). Also add
isolation tests for temporary object cleanup, including objects with toasted
catalog data.
A future HEAD only commit will add an assertion trying to make this more
visible.

Since commit ffa2e4670, libpq accumulates text in conn->errorMessage
across a whole query cycle. In some situations, we may report more
than one error event within a cycle: the easiest case to reach is
where we report a FATAL error message from the server, and then a
bit later we detect loss of connection. Since, historically, each
error PGresult bears the entire content of conn->errorMessage,
this results in duplication of the FATAL message in any output that
concatenates the contents of the PGresults.
Accumulation in errorMessage still seems like a good idea, especially
in view of the number of places that did ad-hoc error concatenation
before ffa2e4670. So to fix this, let's track how much of
conn->errorMessage has been read out into error PGresults, and only
include new text in later PGresults. The tricky part of that is
to be sure that we never discard an error PGresult once made (else
we'd risk dropping some text, a problem much worse than duplication).
While libpq formerly did that in some code paths, a little bit of
rearrangement lets us postpone making an error PGresult at all until
we are about to return it.
A side benefit of that postponement is that it now becomes practical
to return a dummy static PGresult in cases where we hit out-of-memory
while trying to manufacture an error PGresult. This eliminates the
admittedly-very-rare case where we'd return NULL from PQgetResult,
indicating successful query completion, even though what actually
happened was an OOM failure.

As currently implemented, failure of a PGEVT_CONNRESET callback
forces the PGconn into the CONNECTION_BAD state (without closing
the socket, which is inconsistent with other failure paths), and
prevents later callbacks from being called. This seems highly
questionable, and indeed is questioned by comments in the source.
Instead, let's just ignore the result value of PGEVT_CONNRESET
calls. Like the preceding commit, this converts event callbacks
into "pure observers" that cannot affect libpq's processing logic.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3185105.1644960083@sss.pgh.pa.us
As currently implemented, failure of a PGEVT_RESULTCREATE callback
causes the PGresult to be converted to an error result. This is
intellectually inconsistent (shouldn't a failing callback likewise
prevent creation of the error result? what about side-effects on the
behavior seen by other event procs? why does PQfireResultCreateEvents
act differently from PQgetResult?), but more importantly it destroys
any promises we might wish to make about the behavior of libpq in
nontrivial operating modes, such as pipeline mode. For example,
it's not possible to promise that PGRES_PIPELINE_SYNC results will
be returned if an event callback fails on those. With this
definition, expecting applications to behave sanely in the face of
possibly-failing callbacks seems like a very big lift.
Hence, redefine the result of a callback failure as being simply
that that event procedure won't be called any more for this PGresult
(which was true already). Event procedures can still signal failure
back to the application through out-of-band mechanisms, for example
via their passthrough arguments.
Similarly, don't let failure of a PGEVT_RESULTCOPY callback prevent
PQcopyResult from succeeding. That definition allowed a misbehaving
event proc to break single-row mode (our sole internal use of
PQcopyResult), and it probably had equally deleterious effects for
outside uses.

GCC 12 complains that set_stack_base is storing the address of
a local variable in a long-lived pointer. This is an entirely
reasonable warning (indeed, it just helped us find a bug);
but that behavior is intentional here. We can work around it
by using __builtin_frame_address(0) instead of a specific local
variable; that produces an address a dozen or so bytes different,
in my testing, but we don't care about such a small difference.
Maybe someday a compiler lacking that function will start to issue
a similar warning, but we'll worry about that when it happens.

Add a heuristic that avoids distortion in the pg_class.reltuples
estimates used by VACUUM. Without the heuristic, successive manually
run VACUUM commands (run against a table that is never modified after
initial bulk loading) will scan the same page in each VACUUM operation.
Eventually pg_class.reltuples may reach the point where one single heap
page is accidentally considered highly representative of the entire
table. This is likely to be completely wrong, since the last heap page
typically has fewer tuples than average for the table.
It's not obvious that this was a problem prior to commit 44fa8488, which
made vacuumlazy.c consistently scan the last heap page (even when it is
all-visible in the visibility map). It seems possible that there were
more subtle variants of the same problem that went unnoticed for quite
some time, though. Commit 44fa8488 simplified certain aspects of when
and how relation truncation was considered, but it did not introduce the
"scan the last page" behavior. Essentially the same behavior was
introduced much earlier, in commit e8429082. It was conditioned on
whether or not truncation looked promising towards the end of the
initial heap pass by VACUUM until recently, which was at least somewhat
protective. That doesn't seem like something that we should be relying
on, though.
