If we define ZLIB_CONST before including zlib.h, zlib augments some
interfaces with const decorations. By doing that we can keep our own
interfaces cleaner and can remove some unconstify calls.
ZLIB_CONST was introduced in zlib 1.2.5.2 (17 Dec 2011). When
compiling with older zlib releases, you might now get compiler
warnings about discarding qualifiers.
CentOS 6 has zlib 1.2.3, but in 8e278b6576, we removed support for the

Commit e7cb7ee14, which introduced the infrastructure for FDWs and
custom scan providers to replace joins with scans, failed to add support
handling of pseudoconstant quals assigned to replaced joins in
createplan.c, leading to an incorrect plan without a gating Result node
when postgres_fdw replaced a join with such a qual.
To fix, we could add the support by 1) modifying the ForeignPath and
CustomPath structs to store the list of RestrictInfo nodes to apply to
the join, as in JoinPaths, if they represent foreign and custom scans
replacing a join with a scan, and by 2) modifying create_scan_plan() in
createplan.c to use that list in that case, instead of the
baserestrictinfo list, to get pseudoconstant quals assigned to the join;
but #1 would cause an ABI break. So fix by modifying the infrastructure
to just disallow replacing joins with such quals.

In pg_stat_statements, savepoint names now show up as constants with a
parameter symbol, using as base query string the one added as a new
entry to the PGSS hash table, leading to:
RELEASE $1
ROLLBACK TO $1
SAVEPOINT $1
Applying constants to these query parts is a huge advantage for
workloads that generate randomly savepoint points, like ORMs (Django is
at the origin of this patch). The ODBC driver is a second layer that
likes a lot savepoints, though it does not use a random naming pattern.
A "location" field is added to TransactionStmt, now set only for
savepoints. The savepoint name is ignored by the query jumbling. The
location can be extended to other query patterns, if required, like 2PC
commands. Some tests are added to pg_stat_statements for all the query
patterns supported by the parser.
ROLLBACK, ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT and ROLLBACK TRANSACTION TO SAVEPOINT
have the same Node representation, so all these are equivalents. The

GiST compress functions (like all GiST opclass functions) are
supposed to be called in short-lived memory contexts, so that
minor memory leaks in them are not of concern, and indeed
explicit pfree's are likely slightly counterproductive.
But this one in g_intbig_compress() is more than
slightly counterproductive, because it's guarded by
"if (in != DatumGetArrayTypeP(entry->key))" which means
that if this test succeeds, we've detoasted the datum twice.
(And to add insult to injury, the extra detoast result is
leaked.) Let's just drop the whole stanza, relying on the
GiST temporary context mechanism to clean up in good time.
The analogous bit in g_int_compress() is
if (r != (ArrayType *) DatumGetPointer(entry->key))
pfree(r);
which doesn't have the gratuitous-detoast problem so
I left it alone. Perhaps there is a case for removing
unnecessary pfree's more widely, but I'm not sure if it's
worth the code churn.
The potential extra decompress seems expensive enough to
justify calling this a (minor) performance bug and
back-patching.

This commit comes as a continuation of the discussion that has led to
d522b05, as \v was handled inconsistently when parsing array values or
anything going through the parsers, and changing a parser behavior in
stable branches is a scary thing to do. The parsing of array values now
uses the more central scanner_isspace() and array_isspace() is removed.
As pointing out by Peter Eisentraut, fix a confusing reference to
horizontal space in the parsers with the term "horiz_space". \f was
included in this set since 3cfdd8f from 2000, but it is not horizontal.
"horiz_space" is renamed to "non_newline_space", to refer to all
whitespace characters except newlines.
The changes impact the parsers for the backend, psql, seg, cube, ecpg
and replication commands. Note that JSON should not escape \v, as per

The tests of unaccent rely on UTF8 characters, and unlike any other test
suite in the tree (fuzzystrmatch, citext, hstore, etc.), they would fail
if run on a database that does not support UTF8 encoding.
This commit fixes the tests of unaccent so as these are skipped when run
on a database without UTF8 support, using the same method as the other
test suits based on \if, getdatabaseencoding() and an alternate output
file.
This has been broken for a long time, but nobody has complained about
that either, so no backpatch is done. This can be reproduced with
something like REGRESS_OPTS="--no-locale --encoding=sql_ascii", for
instance. To defend against that, this module's Makefile and

As gist__int_ops stands in intarray, it is possible to store GiST
entries for leaf pages that can cause corruptions when decompressed.
Leaf nodes are stored as decompressed all the time by the compression
method, and the decompression method should map with that, retrieving
the contents of the page without doing any decompression. However, the
code authorized the insertion of leaf page data with a higher number of
array items than what can be supported, generating a NOTICE message to
inform about this matter (199 for a 8k page, for reference). When
calling the decompression method, a decompression would be attempted on
this leaf node item but the contents should be retrieved as they are.
The NOTICE message generated when dealing with the compression of a leaf
page and too many elements in the input array for gist__int_ops has been
introduced by 08ee64e, removing the marker stored in the array to track
if this is actually a leaf node. However, it also missed the fact that
the decompression path should do nothing for a leaf page. Hence, as the
code stand, a too-large array would be stored as uncompressed but the
decompression path would attempt a decompression rather that retrieving
the contents as they are.
This leads to various problems. First, even if 08ee64e tried to address
that, it is possible to do out-of-bound chunk writes with a large input
array, with the backend informing about that with WARNINGs. On
decompression, retrieving the stored leaf data would lead to incorrect
memory reads, leading to crashes or even worse.
Perhaps somebody would be interested in expanding the number of array
items that can be handled in a leaf page for this operator in the
future, which would require revisiting the choice done in 08ee64e, but
based on the lack of reports about this problem since 2005 it does not
look so. For now, this commit prevents the insertion of data for leaf
pages when using more array items that the code can handle on
decompression, switching the NOTICE message to an ERROR. If one wishes
to use more array items, gist__intbig_ops is an optional choice.
While on it, use ERRCODE_PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED as error code when a
limit is reached, because that's what the module is facing in such
cases.

Split nbtree's _bt_getbuf function is two: code that read locks or write
locks existing pages remains in _bt_getbuf, while code that deals with
allocating new pages is moved to a new, dedicated function called
_bt_allocbuf. This simplifies most _bt_getbuf callers, since it is no
longer necessary for them to pass a heaprel argument. Many of the
changes to nbtree from commit 61b313e4 can be reverted. This minimizes
the divergence between HEAD/PostgreSQL 16 and earlier release branches.
_bt_allocbuf replaces the previous nbtree idiom of passing P_NEW to
_bt_getbuf. There are only 3 affected call sites, all of which continue
to pass a heaprel for recovery conflict purposes. Note that nbtree's
use of P_NEW was superficial; nbtree never actually relied on the P_NEW
code paths in bufmgr.c, so this change is strictly mechanical.
GiST already took the same approach; it has a dedicated function for
allocating new pages called gistNewBuffer(). That factor allowed commit
61b313e4 to make much more targeted changes to GiST.

We've had multiple issues with the clause_is_computable_at logic that
I introduced in 2489d76c4: it's been known to accept more than one
clone of the same qual at the same plan node, and also to accept no
clones at all. It's looking impractical to get it 100% right on the
basis of the currently-stored information, so fix it by introducing a
new RestrictInfo field "incompatible_relids" that explicitly shows
which outer joins a given clone mustn't be pushed above.
In principle we could populate this field in every RestrictInfo, but
that would cost space and there doesn't presently seem to be a need
for it in general. Also, while deconstruct_distribute_oj_quals can
easily fill the field with the remaining members of the commutative
join set that it's considering, computing it in the general case
seems again pretty complicated. So for now, just fill it for
clone quals.
Along the way, fix a bug that may or may not be only latent:
equivclass.c was generating replacement clauses with is_pushed_down
and has_clone/is_clone markings that didn't match their
required_relids. This led me to conclude that leaving the clone flags
out of make_restrictinfo's purview wasn't such a great idea after all,
so add them.

Non-leaf pages of GiST indexes contain key attributes, leaf pages
contain both key and non-key attributes, and gist_page_items() ignored
the handling of non-key attributes. This caused a few problems when
using gist_page_items() on a GiST index with INCLUDE:
- On a non-leaf page, the function would crash.
- On a leaf page, the function would work, but miss to display all the
values for included attributes.
This commit fixes gist_page_items() to handle such cases in a more
appropriate way, and now displays the values of key and non-key
attributes for each item separately in a style consistent with what
ruleutils.c would generate for the attribute list, depending on the page
type dealt with. In a way similar to how a record is displayed, values
would be double-quoted for key or non-key attributes if required.
ruleutils.c did not provide a routine able to control if non-key
attributes should be displayed, so an extended() routine for index
definitions is added to work around the leaf and non-leaf page
differences.
While on it, this commit fixes a third problem related to the amount of
data reported for key attributes. The code originally relied on
BuildIndexValueDescription() (used for error reports on constraints)
that would not print all the data stored in the index but the index
opclass's input type, so this limited the amount of information
available. This switch makes gist_page_items() much cheaper as there is
no need to run ACL checks for each item printed, which is not an issue
anyway as superuser rights are required to execute the functions of
pageinspect. Opclasses whose data cannot be displayed can rely on
gist_page_items_bytea().
The documentation of this function was slightly incorrect for the
output results generated on HEAD and v15, so adjust it on these
branches.

outside a comment, so this is just cosmetic. Nonetheless the warning
is fairly scary and people might waste time trying to understand the
cause, so we ought to silence it.
We have only one other occurrence of a non-ASCII character in .c or .h
files in the tree: predicate.c mentions "Uwe Röhm". It's far from
clear why hamerkop isn't complaining about that too; but it isn't,
so maybe there is some special provision for accented Roman letters.
We can remove the non-letter symbols from the comment for
iso8859_1_to_ascii_upper without any real loss of usefulness,
so let's try that first to see if it silences the warning.

This reverts commit 3d03b24c3 (Revert Add support for Kerberos
credential delegation) which was committed on the grounds of concern
about portability, but on further review and discussion, it's clear that
we are better off explicitly requiring MIT Kerberos as that appears to
be the only GSSAPI library currently that's under proper maintenance
and ongoing development. The API used for storing credentials was added
to MIT Kerberos over a decade ago while for the other libraries which
appear to be mainly based on Heimdal, which exists explicitly to be a
re-implementation of MIT Kerberos, the API never made it to a released
version (even though it was added to the Heimdal git repo over 5 years
ago..).
This post-feature-freeze change was approved by the RMT.
