This should be plain old ColId. Making it so makes the grammar less
complicated, and makes the compiled tables a kilobyte or so smaller
(likely because they don't have to deal with a keyword classification
that's not used anyplace else).
Commit 624686abcf added an assertion that verified that _bt_search
successfully relocated the leaf page undergoing deletion. Page deletion
cannot deal with the case where the descent stack is to the right of the
page, so this seemed critical (deletion can only handle the case where
the descent stack is to the left of the leaf/target page). However, the
assertion went a bit too far.
Since only a buffer pin is held on the leaf page throughout the call to
_bt_search, nothing guarantees that it can't have split during this
small window. And if does actually split, _bt_search may end up
"relocating" a page to the right of the original target leaf page. This
scenario seems extremely unlikely, but it must still be considered.
Remove the assertion, and document how we cope in this scenario.

The previous coding zeroed out offsetof(ReplicationStateCtl, states)
more bytes than it was entitled to, as a consequence of starting the
zeroing from the wrong pointer (or, if you prefer, using the wrong
calculation of how much to zero).
It's unsurprising that this has not caused any reported problems,
since it can be expected that the newly-allocated block is at the end
of what we've used in shared memory, and we always make the shmem
block substantially bigger than minimally necessary. Nonetheless,
this is wrong and it could bite us someday; plus it's a dangerous
model for somebody to copy.

_bt_killitems marks btree items dead when a scan leaves the page where
they live, but it does so with only share lock (to improve concurrency).
This was historicall okay, since killing a dead item has no
consequences. However, with the advent of data checksums and
wal_log_hints, this action incurs a WAL full-page-image record of the
page. Multiple concurrent processes would write the same page several
times, leading to WAL bloat. The probability of this happening can be
reduced by only killing items if they're not already dead, so change the
code to do that.
The problem could eliminated completely by having _bt_killitems upgrade
to exclusive lock upon seeing a killable item, but that would reduce
concurrency so it's considered a cure worse than the disease.

Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than
being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them.
As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and
the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit
more care. Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk
storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some
extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like
a good thing). Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names
are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names.
For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules'
SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects. This
renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so.
But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally
visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable.
(But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that
name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.)

Includes some manual cleanup of places that pgindent messed up,
most of which weren't per project style anyway.
Notably, it seems some people didn't absorb the style rules of
commit c9d297751, because there were a bunch of new occurrences
of function calls with a newline just after the left paren, all
with faulty expectations about how the rest of the call would get
indented.
There is little point in using the LWLockRegisterTranche mechanism for
built-in tranche names. It wastes cycles, it creates opportunities for
bugs (since failing to register a tranche name is a very hard-to-detect
problem), and the lack of any centralized list of names encourages
sloppy nonconformity in name choices. Moreover, since we have a
centralized list of the tranches anyway in enum BuiltinTrancheIds, we're
certainly not buying any flexibility in return for these disadvantages.
Hence, nuke all the backend-internal LWLockRegisterTranche calls,
and instead provide a const array of the builtin tranche names.
(I have in mind to change a bunch of these names shortly, but this
patch is just about getting them into one place.)

Previously, AsyncShmemInit forcibly initialized the first page of the
async SLRU, to save dealing with that case in asyncQueueAddEntries.
But this is a poor tradeoff, since many installations do not ever use
NOTIFY; for them, expending those cycles in AsyncShmemInit is a
complete waste. Besides, this only saves a couple of instructions
in asyncQueueAddEntries, which hardly seems likely to be measurable.
The real reason to change this now, though, is that now that we track
SLRU access stats, the existing code is causing the postmaster to
accumulate some access counts, which then get inherited into child
processes by fork(), messing up the statistics. Delaying the
initialization into the first child that does a NOTIFY fixes that.
Hence, we can revert f3d23d83e, which was an incorrect attempt at
fixing that issue. Also, add an Assert to pgstat.c that should
catch any future errors of the same sort.

Instead of re-identifying which statistics bucket to use for a given
SLRU on every counter increment, do it once during shmem initialization.
This saves a fair number of cycles, and there's no real cost because
we could not have a bucket assignment that varies over time or across
backends anyway.
Also, get rid of the ill-considered decision to let pgstat.c pry
directly into SLRU's shared state; it's cleaner just to have slru.c
pass the stats bucket number.
In consequence of these changes, there's no longer any need to store
an SLRU's LWLock tranche info in shared memory, so get rid of that,
making this a net reduction in shmem consumption. (That partly
reverts fe702a7b3.)

* Change WALRead not to receive XLogReaderState->seg and ->segcxt as

* have the XLogReader segment_open contract require the callbacks to
install the file descriptor in the state struct themselves instead of
returning it. xlogreader was already ignoring any possible failed
return from the callbacks, relying solely on them never returning.
(This point is not altogether excellent, as it means the callbacks
have to know more of XLogReaderState; but to really improve on that
we would have to pass back error info from the callbacks to
xlogreader. And the complexity would not be saved but instead just
transferred to the callers of WALRead, which would have to learn how
to throw errors from the open_segment callback in addition of, as
currently, from pg_pread.)

page deletion unsafe in a slightly more uniform way, and acknowledge the
fact that the behavior with incomplete splits on internal pages is
different (as pointed out in the nbtree README as of commit 35bc0ec7).
Also invent new terminology that avoids ambiguity around which pages are
about to be deleted. Consistently use the term "to-be-deleted subtree",
not the ambiguous term "branch".
We were calling the subtree parent page the "top parent page", but that
was quite misleading. The top parent page usually refers to a page
unlinked from its siblings and marked deleted (during the second stage
of page deletion). There was one kind of top parent page that we merely
removed a downlink from, and another kind of top parent page that we
actually marked deleted. Eliminate the ambiguity by inventing a new
term ("subtree parent page") that refers to the former kind of page
only.

Incremental sort does not support backward scans of mark/restore, so

With REWIND it's a bit less clear - incremental sort does not support

Factor out code common to _bt_lock_branch_parent() and _bt_pagedel()
into a new utility function. This new function is used to check that
the left sibling of a deletion target page does not have the
INCOMPLETE_SPLIT page flag set. If it is set then deletion is unsafe;
there won't be a usable pivot tuple (with a downlink) in the parent page
that points to the deletion target page. The page deletion algorithm is
not prepared to deal with that. Also restructure an existing, related
utility function that checks if the right sibling of the target page has
the ISHALFDEAD page flag set.
This organization highlights the symmetry between the two cases. The
goal is to make the design of page deletion clearer. Both functions
involve a sibling page with a flag that indicates that there was an
interrupted operation (a page split or a page deletion) that resulted in
a page pointed to by sibling pages, but not pointed to in the parent.
And, both functions indicate if page deletion is unsafe due to the
absence of a particular downlink in the parent page.
checkcondition_str() failed to report multiple matches for a prefix

Remove one of the arguments to btvacuumpage(), and give up on the idea
that it's a recursive function. We now use the term "backtracking" to
refer to the case where an earlier block must be visited to make sure no
tuples that need to be removed were missed.
Advertising btvacuumpage() as a recursive function was unhelpful. In
reality the function always simulates recursion with a loop (it doesn't
actually call itself). This wasn't just necessary as a precaution (per
the comments mentioning tail recursion), though. There is no reliable
natural limit on the number of times we can backtrack.
There are important behavioral difference when "recursing"/backtracking,
mostly related to page deletion. We don't perform page deletion when
backtracking due to the extra complexity. And when we recurse, we're
not performing a physical order scan anymore, so we expect fairly
different conditions to hold for the page. Structuring the code like
this makes it clearer how _bt_pagedel() cooperates with btvacuumpage()
and btvacuumscan() (as established in commit b0229f26 and commit
73a076b0).

If the client is compiled with GSSAPI support and tries to start up GSS
with the server, but the server is not compiled with GSSAPI support, we
would mistakenly end up falling through to call ProcessStartupPacket
with secure_done = true, but the client might then try to perform SSL,
which the backend wouldn't understand and we'd end up failing the
connection with:
FATAL: unsupported frontend protocol 1234.5679: server supports 2.0 to 3.0
Fix by arranging to track ssl_done independently from gss_done, instead
of trying to use the same boolean for both.

Backpatch: 12-, where GSSAPI encryption was added.
Writing a trailing semicolon in a macro is almost never the right thing,
because you almost always want to write a semicolon after each macro
call instead. (Even if there was some reason to prefer not to, pgindent
would probably make a hash of code formatted that way; so within PG the
rule should basically be "don't do it".) Thus, if we have a semi inside
the macro, the compiler sees "something;;". Much of the time the extra
empty statement is harmless, but it could lead to mysterious syntax
errors at call sites. In perhaps an overabundance of neatnik-ism, let's
run around and get rid of the excess semicolons whereever possible.
The only thing worse than a mysterious syntax error is a mysterious
syntax error that only happens in the back branches; therefore,
backpatch these changes where relevant, which is most of them because
most of these mistakes are old. (The lack of reported problems shows
that this is largely a hypothetical issue, but still, it could bite
us in some future patch.)

On further reflection, code comments added by commit b0229f26 slightly
misrepresented how we determine the oldest bpto.xact for the index.
btvacuumpage() does not treat the bpto.xact of a page that it put in the
FSM as a candidate to be the oldest deleted page (the delete-marked page
that has the oldest bpto.xact XID among all pages encountered).
The definition of a deleted page for the purposes of the bpto.xact
calculation is different from the definition used by the bulk delete
statistics. The bulk delete statistics don't distinguish between pages
that were deleted by the current VACUUM, pages deleted by a previous
VACUUM operation but not yet recyclable/reusable, and pages that are
reusable (though reusable pages are counted separately).
Backpatch: 11-, just like commit b0229f26.
The logic for determining how many nbtree pages in an index are deleted
pages sometimes undercounted pages. Pages that were deleted by the
current VACUUM operation (as opposed to some previous VACUUM operation
whose deleted pages have yet to be reused) were sometimes overlooked.
The final count is exposed to users through VACUUM VERBOSE's "%u index
pages have been deleted" output.
btvacuumpage() avoided double-counting when _bt_pagedel() deleted more
than one page by assuming that only one page was deleted, and that the
additional deleted pages would get picked up during a future call to
btvacuumpage() by the same VACUUM operation. _bt_pagedel() can
legitimately delete pages that the btvacuumscan() scan will not visit
again, though, so that assumption was slightly faulty.
Fix the accounting by teaching _bt_pagedel() about its caller's
requirements. It now only reports on pages that it knows btvacuumscan()
won't visit again (including the current btvacuumpage() page), so
everything works out in the end.
This bug has been around forever. Only backpatch to v11, though, to
keep _bt_pagedel() is sync on the branches that have today's bugfix
commit b0229f26da. Note that this commit changes the signature of
_bt_pagedel(), just like commit b0229f26da.

Backpatch: 11-
Commit 857f9c36cd (which taught nbtree VACUUM to skip a scan of the
index from btcleanup in situations where it doesn't seem worth it) made
VACUUM maintain the oldest btpo.xact among all deleted pages for the
index as a whole. It failed to handle all the details surrounding pages
that are deleted by the current VACUUM operation correctly (though pages
deleted by some previous VACUUM operation were processed correctly).
The most immediate problem was that the special area of the page was
examined without a buffer pin at one point. More fundamentally, the
handling failed to account for the full range of _bt_pagedel()
behaviors. For example, _bt_pagedel() sometimes deletes internal pages
in passing, as part of deleting an entire subtree with btvacuumpage()
caller's page as the leaf level page. The original leaf page passed to
_bt_pagedel() might not be the page that it deletes first in cases where
deletion can take place.
It's unclear how disruptive this bug may have been, or what symptoms
users might want to look out for. The issue was spotted during
unrelated code review.
To fix, push down the logic for maintaining the oldest btpo.xact to
_bt_pagedel(). btvacuumpage() is now responsible for pages that were
fully deleted by a previous VACUUM operation, while _bt_pagedel() is now
responsible for pages that were deleted by the current VACUUM operation
(this includes half-dead pages from a previous interrupted VACUUM
operation that become fully deleted in _bt_pagedel()). Note that
_bt_pagedel() should never encounter an existing deleted page.
This commit theoretically breaks the ABI of a stable release by changing
the signature of _bt_pagedel(). However, if any third party extension
is actually affected by this, then it must already be completely broken
(since there are numerous assumptions made in _bt_pagedel() that cannot
be met outside of VACUUM). It seems highly unlikely that such an
extension actually exists, in any case.

Checkpointer uses its MyLatch to wake up when a checkpoint request is
received. But before commit c655077639 the latch was not used for
anything else, so the code could just go to sleep after each loop
without rechecking the sleeping condition. That commit added a separate
ResetLatch in its code path[1], which can cause a checkpoint to go
unnoticed for potentially a long time.

Queries such as '!(foo<->bar)' failed to find matching rows when
implemented as a GiST or GIN index search. That's because of
failing to handle phrase searches as tri-valued when considering
a query without any position information for the target tsvector.
We can only say that the phrase operator might match, not that it
does match; and therefore its NOT also might match. The previous
coding incorrectly inverted the approximate phrase result to
decide that there was certainly no match.
To fix, we need to make TS_phrase_execute return a real ternary result,
and then bubble that up accurately in TS_execute. As long as we have
to do that anyway, we can simplify the baroque things TS_phrase_execute
was doing internally to manage tri-valued searching with only a bool
as explicit result.
For now, I left the externally-visible result of TS_execute as a plain
bool. There do not appear to be any outside callers that need to
distinguish a three-way result, given that they passed in a flag
saying what to do in the absence of position data. This might need
to change someday, but we wouldn't want to back-patch such a change.
Although tsginidx.c has its own TS_execute_ternary implementation for
use at upper index levels, that sadly managed to get this case wrong
as well :-(. Fixing it is a lot easier fortunately.

phrase search was introduced.

Avoid accessing the leaf page's top parent tuple without a buffer lock
held during the second phase of nbtree page deletion. The old approach
was safe, though only because VACUUM never drops its buffer pin (and
because only VACUUM itself can modify a half-dead page). Even still, it
seems like a good idea to be strict here. Tighten things up by copying
the top parent page's block number to a local variable before releasing
the buffer lock on the leaf page -- not after.
This is a follow-up to commit fa7ff642, which fixed a similar issue in
the first phase of nbtree page deletion.

Avoid accessing the deletion target page's special area during nbtree
page deletion at a point where there is no buffer lock held. This issue
was detected by a patch that extends Valgrind's memcheck tool to mark
nbtree pages that are unsafe to access (due to not having a buffer lock
or buffer pin) as NOACCESS.
We do hold a buffer pin at this point, and only access the special area,
so the old approach was safe. Even still, it seems like a good idea to
tighten up the rules in this area. There is no reason to not simply
insist on always holding a buffer lock (not just a pin) when accessing
nbtree pages.

Before sleeping, WalSndWaitForWal() sends a keepalive if MyWalSnd->write
< sentPtr. When the latest physical LSN yields no logical replication
messages (a common case), that keepalive elicits a reply. 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

CreateRole() was passing a Value node, not a RoleSpec node, for the
newly-created role name when adding the role as a member of existing
roles for the IN ROLE syntax.
This mistake went unnoticed because the node in question is used only
for error messages and is not accessed on non-error paths.
In older pg versions (such as 9.5 where this was found), this results
in an "unexpected node type" error in place of the real error. That
node type check was removed at some point, after which the code would
accidentally fail to fail on 64-bit platforms (on which accessing the
Value node as if it were a RoleSpec would be mostly harmless) or give
an "unexpected role type" error on 32-bit platforms.
Fix the code to pass the correct node type, and add an lfirst_node
assertion just in case.

Commit 32ff26911 introduced use of rank() into the triggers view to
calculate the spec-mandated action_order column. As written, this
prevents query constraints on the table-name column from being pushed
below the window aggregate step. That's bad for performance of this
typical usage pattern, since the view now has to be evaluated for all
tables not just the one(s) the user wants to see. It's also the cause
of some recent buildfarm failures, in which trying to evaluate the view
rows for triggers in process of being dropped resulted in "cache lookup
failed for function NNN" errors. Those rows aren't of interest to the
test script doing the query, but the filter that would eliminate them
is being applied too late. None of this happened before the rank()
call was there, so it's a regression compared to v10 and before.
We can improve matters by changing the rank() call so that instead of
partitioning by OIDs, it partitions by nspname and relname, casting
those to sql_identifier so that they match the respective view output
columns exactly. The planner has enough intelligence to know that
constraints on partitioning columns are safe to push down, so this
eliminates the performance problem and the regression test failure
risk. We could make the other partitioning columns match view outputs
as well, but it'd be more complicated and the performance benefits
are questionable.
Side note: as this stands, the planner will push down constraints on
event_object_table and trigger_schema, but not on event_object_schema,
because it checks for ressortgroupref matches not expression
equivalence. That might be worth improving someday, but it's not
necessary to fix the immediate concern.
Back-patch to v11 where the rank() call was added. Ordinarily we'd not
change information_schema in released branches, but the test failure has
been seen in v12 and presumably could happen in v11 as well, so we need
to do this to keep the buildfarm happy. The change is harmless so far
as users are concerned. Some might wish to apply it to existing
installations if performance of this type of query is of concern,
but those who don't are no worse off.
I bumped catversion in HEAD as a pro forma matter (there's no
catalog incompatibility that would really require a re-initdb).
Obviously that can't be done in the back branches.

78ea8b5 has fixed an issue related to the recycling of WAL segments on
standbys depending on archive_mode. However, it has introduced a
regression with the handling of WAL segments ready to be archived during
crash recovery, causing those files to be recycled without getting
archived.
This commit fixes the regression by tracking in shared memory if a live
cluster is either in crash recovery or archive recovery as the handling
of WAL segments ready to be archived is different in both cases (those
WAL segments should not be removed during crash recovery), and by using
this new shared memory state to decide if a segment can be recycled or
not. Previously, it was not possible to know if a cluster was in crash
recovery or archive recovery as the shared state was able to track only
if recovery was happening or not, leading to the problem.
A set of TAP tests is added to close the gap here, making sure that WAL
segments ready to be archived are correctly handled when a cluster is in
archive or crash recovery with archive_mode set to "on" or "always", for
both standby and primary.

In a9c35cf85c I changed ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() to dynamically
allocate the FunctionCallInfo used to call the SRF. Unfortunately I
did not account for the fact that the surrounding memory context has
query lifetime, leading to a leak till the end of the query.
In most cases the leak is fairly inconsequential, but if the
FunctionScan is done many times in the query, the leak can add
up. This happens e.g. if the function scan is on the inner side of a
nested loop, due to a lateral join.
EXPLAIN SELECT sum(f) FROM generate_series(1, 100000000) g(i), generate_series(i, i+1) f;
quickly shows the leak.
Instead of explicitly freeing the FunctionCallInfo it seems better to
make sure all the per-set temporary state in
ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() is cleaned up wholesale. Currently
that's probably just the FunctionCallInfo allocation, but since
there's some initialization work, and since there's already an
appropriate context, this seems like a more robust approach.
