xl_tot_len comes first in a WAL record. Usually we don't trust it to be
the true length until we've validated the record header. If the record
header was split across two pages, previously we wouldn't do the
validation until after we'd already tried to allocate enough memory to
hold the record, which was bad because it might actually be garbage
bytes from a recycled WAL file, so we could try to allocate a lot of
memory. Release 15 made it worse.
Since 70b4f82a4b, we'd at least generate an end-of-WAL condition if the
garbage 4 byte value happened to be > 1GB, but we'd still try to
allocate up to 1GB of memory bogusly otherwise. That was an
improvement, but unfortunately release 15 tries to allocate another
object before that, so you could get a FATAL error and recovery could
fail.
We can fix both variants of the problem more fundamentally using
pre-existing page-level validation, if we just re-order some logic.
The new order of operations in the split-header case defers all memory
allocation based on xl_tot_len until we've read the following page. At
that point we know that its first few bytes are not recycled data, by
checking its xlp_pageaddr, and that its xlp_rem_len agrees with
xl_tot_len on the preceding page. That is strong evidence that
xl_tot_len was truly the start of a record that was logged.
This problem was most likely to occur on a standby, because
walreceiver.c recycles WAL files without zeroing out trailing regions of
each page. We could fix that too, but it wouldn't protect us from rare
crash scenarios where the trailing zeroes don't make it to disk.
With reliable xl_tot_len validation in place, the ancient policy of
considering malloc failure to indicate corruption at end-of-WAL seems
quite surprising, but changing that is left for later work.
Also included is a new TAP test to exercise various cases of end-of-WAL
detection by writing contrived data into the WAL from Perl.
Back-patch to 12. We decided not to put this change into the final
release of 11.

the ->restart method to accept a fail_ok parameter like how ->start and

In older branches, COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN failed to propagate
the current transaction's properties to the new transaction if
there was any open subtransaction (unreleased savepoint).
Instead, some previous transaction's properties would be restored.
This is because the "if (s->chain)" check in CommitTransactionCommand
examined the wrong instance of the "chain" flag and falsely
concluded that it didn't need to save transaction properties.
Our regression tests would have noticed this, except they used
identical transaction properties for multiple tests in a row,
so that the faulty behavior was not distinguishable from correct
behavior.
Commit 12d768e70 fixed the problem in v15 and later, but only rather
accidentally, because I removed the "if (s->chain)" test to avoid a
compiler warning, while not realizing that the warning was flagging a
real bug.
In v14 and before, remove the if-test and save transaction properties
unconditionally; just as in the newer branches, that's not expensive
enough to justify thinking harder.
Add the comment and extra regression test to v15 and later to
forestall any future recurrence, but there's no live bug in those
branches.

As reported in bug #18057, the extension unaccent removes in its rule
file whitespace characters that are intentionally specified when
building unaccent.rules from UnicodeData.txt, causing an incorrect
translation for some characters like numeric symbols. This is caused by
the fact that all whitespaces before and after the origin and target
characters are all discarded (this limitation is documented).
This commit makes possible the use of quotes around target characters,
so as whitespaces can be considered part of target characters. Some
target characters use a double quote, these require an extra double
quote.
The documentation is updated to show how to use quoted areas,
generate_unaccent_rules.py is updated to generate unaccent.rules and a
couple of tests are added for numeric symbols. While working on this
patch, I have implemented a fake rule file to test the parsing logic
implemented, which is not included here as it would just consume extra
cycles in the tests, and it requires the manipulation of an installation
tree to be able to work correctly.
As this requires a change of format in unaccent.rules, this cannot be
backpatched, unfortunately. The idea to use double quotes as escaped
characters comes from Tom Lane.

If any of these commands fail during editing or pre-processing, the
command stored in the query buffer would remain around without being
executed immediately as PSQL_CMD_ERROR is returned as status. The next
command provided by the user would run it, likely causing failures as
this could include silently some of the contents generated automatically
for views or functions.
The problems would be different depending on the psql meta-command used:
- For \ev and \ef, some errors can happen in a predictable way while
doing an object lookup or while creating an object command. A failure
while editing is equally problematic, but the class of failures
happening in the code path of do_edit() are unlikely. The query reset
is kept in exec_command_ef_ev() as a query may be unchanged.
- For \e, error can happen while editing.
In both cases, the query buffer is reset on error for an incorrect file
number provided, whose value check is done before filling up the query
buffer.
This is a slight change of behavior compared to the past for some of the
predictable error patterns for \ev and \ef, so for now I have made the
choice to not backpatch this commit (argument particularly available for
v11 that's going to be EOL'd soon). Perhaps this could be revisited

Presently, parallel restores spend a lot of time sorting this list
so that we pick the largest items first. With many tables, this
sorting can become a significant bottleneck. There are a couple of
reports from the field about this, and it is easy to reproduce.
This commit improves the performance of parallel pg_restore with
many tables by converting its ready_list to a priority queue, i.e.,
a binary heap. We will first try to run the highest priority item,
but if it cannot be chosen due to the lock heuristic, we'll do a
sequential scan through the heap nodes until we find one that is
runnable. This means that we might end up picking an item with a
much lower priority. However, we expect that we will typically be
able to pick one of the first few items, which should usually have
a relatively high priority.

When a snapshot file fails to be read in ImportSnapshot(), it would
issue an ERROR as "invalid snapshot identifier" when opening a stream
for it in read-only mode. The error handling is improved to be more
talkative in failure cases:
- If a snapshot identifier uses incorrect characters, complain with the
same error as before this commit.
- If the snapshot file cannot be found in pg_snapshots/, complain with a
"snapshot \"foo\" does not exist" instead. This maps to the case where
AllocateFile() fails on ENOENT. Based on a suggestion from Andres
Freund.
- If AllocateFile() throws something else than ENOENT as errno, report
it with more details in %m instead, as these failures are never

Currently, it is not a major problem but a later patch adding support for

It can also help avoid processing the same transactions again in some
boundary cases after the clean shutdown and restart. Say, we process
some transactions for which we didn't send anything downstream (the

keepalives. As we don't flush the latest value of confirm_flush LSN, it
