Simon Riggs 465883b0a2 Introduce compact WAL record for the common case of commit (non-DDL).
XLOG_XACT_COMMIT_COMPACT leaves out invalidation messages and relfilenodes,
saving considerable space for the vast majority of transaction commits.
XLOG_XACT_COMMIT keeps same definition as XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC 0xD067 and earlier.

Alvaro Herrera e5e2fc842c Modernise pg_hba.conf token processing
The previous coding was ugly, as it marked special tokens as such in the
wrong stage, relying on workarounds to figure out if they had been
quoted in the original or not.  This made it impossible to have specific
keywords be recognized as such only in certain positions in HBA lines,
for example.  Fix by restructuring the parser code so that it remembers
whether tokens were quoted or not.  This eliminates widespread knowledge
of possible known keywords for all fields.

Also improve memory management in this area, to use memory contexts that
are reset as a whole instead of using retail pfrees; this removes a
whole lotta crufty (and probably slow) code.

Instead of calling strlen() three times in next_field_expand on the
returned token to find out whether there was a comma (and strip it),
pass back the info directly from the callee, which is simpler.

In passing, update historical artifacts in hba.c API.

Simon Riggs e1cd66f748 Reduce impact of btree page reuse on Hot Standby by fixing off-by-1 error.
WAL records of type XLOG_BTREE_REUSE_PAGE were generated using a
latestRemovedXid one higher than actually needed because xid used was
page opaque->btpo.xact rather than an actually removed xid.

Robert Haas 9abbed0629 Allow callers to pass a missing_ok flag when opening a relation.
Since the names try_relation_openrv() and try_heap_openrv() don't seem
quite appropriate, rename the functions to relation_openrv_extended()
and heap_openrv_extended().  This is also more general, if we have a
future need for additional parameters that are of interest to only a
few callers.

This is infrastructure for a forthcoming patch to allow
get_object_address() to take a missing_ok argument as well.

Patch by me, review by Noah Misch.

Robert Haas 4da99ea423 Avoid having two copies of the HOT-chain search logic.
It's been like this since HOT was originally introduced, but the logic
is complex enough that this is a recipe for bugs, as we've already
found out with SSI.  So refactor heap_hot_search_buffer() so that it
can satisfy the needs of index_getnext(), and make index_getnext() use
that rather than duplicating the logic.

This change was originally proposed by Heikki Linnakangas as part of a
larger refactoring oriented towards allowing index-only scans.  I
extracted and adjusted this part, since it seems to have independent
merit.  Review by Jeff Davis.

As Tom Lane pointed out, "const Relation foo" doesn't guarantee that you

can't change the pointer to point to something else within the function,
which is not very useful.

Robert Haas 503c7305a1 Make the visibility map crash-safe.
This involves two main changes from the previous behavior.  First,
when we set a bit in the visibility map, emit a new WAL record of type
XLOG_HEAP2_VISIBLE.  Replay sets the page-level PD_ALL_VISIBLE bit and
the visibility map bit.  Second, when inserting, updating, or deleting
a tuple, we can no longer get away with clearing the visibility map
bit after releasing the lock on the corresponding heap page, because
an intervening crash might leave the visibility map bit set and the
page-level bit clear.  Making this work requires a bit of interface
refactoring.

In passing, a few minor but related cleanups: change the test in
visibilitymap_set and visibilitymap_clear to throw an error if the
wrong page (or no page) is pinned, rather than silently doing nothing;
this case should never occur.  Also, remove duplicate definitions of
InvalidXLogRecPtr.

Robert Haas 7095003cbe Make deadlock_timeout PGC_SUSET rather than PGC_SIGHUP.
This allows deadlock_timeout to be reduced for transactions that are
particularly likely to be involved in a deadlock, thus detecting it
more quickly.  It is also potentially useful as a poor-man's deadlock
priority mechanism: a transaction with a high deadlock_timeout is less
likely to be chosen as the victim than one with a low
deadlock_timeout.  Since that could be used to game the system, we
make this PGC_SUSET rather than PGC_USERSET.

At some point, it might be worth thinking about a more explicit
priority mechanism, since using this is far from fool-proof.  But
let's see whether there's enough use case to justify the additional
work before we go down that route.

Robert Haas 8f9fe6edce Add notion of a "transform function" that can simplify function calls.
Initially, we use this only to eliminate calls to the varchar()
function in cases where the length is not being reduced and, therefore,
the function call is equivalent to a RelabelType operation.  The most
significant effect of this is that we can avoid a table rewrite when
changing a varchar(X) column to a varchar(Y) column, where Y > X.

Tom Lane ca59dfa6f7 Apply upstream fix for blowfish signed-character bug (CVE-2011-2483).
A password containing a character with the high bit set was misprocessed
on machines where char is signed (which is most).  This could cause the
preceding one to three characters to fail to affect the hashed result,
thus weakening the password.  The result was also unportable, and failed
to match some other blowfish implementations such as OpenBSD's.

Since the fix changes the output for such passwords, upstream chose
to provide a compatibility hack: password salts beginning with $2x$
(instead of the usual $2a$ for blowfish) are intentionally processed
"wrong" to give the same hash as before.  Stored password hashes can
thus be modified if necessary to still match, though it'd be better
to change any affected passwords.

In passing, sync a couple other upstream changes that marginally improve
performance and/or tighten error checking.

Back-patch to all supported branches.  Since this issue is already
public, no reason not to commit the fix ASAP.
