Commit fede15417 introduced FILTER by jamming it into the existing
example introducing HAVING, which seems pedagogically poor to me;
and it added no information about what the keyword actually does.
Not to mention that the claimed output didn't match the sample
data being used in this running example.
Revert that and instead make an independent example using FILTER.
To help drive home the point that it's a per-aggregate filter,
we need to use two aggregates not just one; for consistency
expand all the examples in this segment to do that.
Also adjust the example using WHERE ... LIKE so that it'd produce
nonempty output with this sample data, and show that output.
Back-patch, as the previous patch was. (Sadly, v10 is now out
of scope.)

If a syntax error occurred in a SQL-language or PL/pgSQL-language
CREATE FUNCTION or DO command executed in a logical replication worker,
we'd suffer a null pointer dereference or assertion failure. That
seems like a rather contrived case, but nonetheless worth fixing.
The cause is that function_parse_error_transpose assumes it must be
executing within the context of a Portal, but logical/worker.c
doesn't create a Portal since it's not running the standard executor.
We can just back off the hard Assert check and make it fail gracefully
if there's not an ActivePortal. (I have a feeling that the aggressive
check here was my fault originally, probably because I wasn't sure if
the case would always hold and wanted to find out. Well, now we know.)
The hazard seems to exist in all branches that have logical replication,
so back-patch to v10.

If we have no special-case code in s_lock.h for the current platform,
but the compiler has __sync_lock_test_and_set, use that instead of
failing. It's unlikely that anybody's __sync_lock_test_and_set
would be so awful as to be worse than our semaphore-based fallback,
but if it is, they can (continue to) use --disable-spinlocks.
This allows removal of the RISC-V special case installed by commit
c32fcac56, which generated exactly the same code but only on that
platform. Usefully, the RISC-V buildfarm animals should now test
at least the int variant of this patch.
I've manually tested both variants on ARM by dint of removing the
ARM-specific stanza. We don't want to drop that, because it already
has some special knowledge and is likely to grow more over time.
Likewise, this is not meant to preclude installing special cases
for other arches if that proves worthwhile.

DST law changes in Chile, Fiji, Iran, Jordan, Mexico, Palestine,
and Syria. Historical corrections for Chile, Crimea, Iran, and
Mexico.
Also, the Europe/Kiev zone has been renamed to Europe/Kyiv
(retaining the old name as a link).
The following zones have been merged into nearby, more-populous zones
whose clocks have agreed since 1970: Antarctica/Vostok, Asia/Brunei,
Asia/Kuala_Lumpur, Atlantic/Reykjavik, Europe/Amsterdam,
Europe/Copenhagen, Europe/Luxembourg, Europe/Monaco, Europe/Oslo,
Europe/Stockholm, Indian/Christmas, Indian/Cocos, Indian/Kerguelen,
Indian/Mahe, Indian/Reunion, Pacific/Chuuk, Pacific/Funafuti,
Pacific/Majuro, Pacific/Pohnpei, Pacific/Wake and Pacific/Wallis.
(This indirectly affects zones that were already links to one of
these: Arctic/Longyearbyen, Atlantic/Jan_Mayen, Iceland,
Pacific/Ponape, Pacific/Truk, and Pacific/Yap.) America/Nipigon,
America/Rainy_River, America/Thunder_Bay, Europe/Uzhgorod, and
Europe/Zaporozhye were also merged into nearby zones after discovering
that their claimed post-1970 differences from those zones seem to have
been errors.
While the IANA crew have been working on merging zones that have no
post-1970 differences for some time, this batch of changes affects
some zones that are significantly more populous than those merged
in the past, notably parts of Europe. The loss of pre-1970 timezone
history for those zones may be troublesome for applications
expecting consistency of timestamptz display. As an example, the
stored value '1944-06-01 12:00 UTC' would previously display as
'1944-06-01 13:00:00+01' if the Europe/Stockholm zone is selected,
but now it will read out as '1944-06-01 14:00:00+02'.
There exists a "packrat" option that will build the timezone data
files with this old data preserved, but the problem is that it also
resurrects a bunch of other, far less well-attested data; so much so
that actually more zones' contents change from 2022a with that option
than without it. I have chosen not to do that here, for that reason
and because it appears that no major OS distributions are using the
"packrat" option, so that doing so would cause Postgres' behavior
to diverge significantly depending on whether it was built with
--with-system-tzdata. However, for anyone for whom these changes pose
significant problems, there is a solution: build a set of timezone
files with the "packrat" option and use those with Postgres.
When executing a utility statement, we must fetch everything
we need out of the PlannedStmt data structure before calling
standard_ProcessUtility. In certain cases (possibly only ROLLBACK
in extended query protocol), that data structure will get freed
during command execution. The situation is probably often harmless
in production builds, but in debug builds we intentionally overwrite
the freed memory with garbage, leading to picking up garbage values
of statement location and length, typically causing an assertion
failure later in pg_stat_statements. In non-debug builds, if
something did go wrong it would likely lead to storing garbage
for the query string.

Contrary to what is documented in src/backend/access/transam/README,
ginHeapTupleFastInsert() had a few ordering issues with the way it does
its WAL operations when inserting items in its fast path.
First, when using a separate list, XLogBeginInsert() was being always
called before START_CRIT_SECTION(), and in this case a second thing was
wrong when merging lists, as an exclusive lock was taken on the tail
page *before* calling XLogBeginInsert(). Finally, when inserting items
into a tail page, the order of XLogBeginInsert() and
START_CRIT_SECTION() was reversed. This commit addresses all these
issues by moving the calls of XLogBeginInsert() after all the pages
logged are locked and pinned, within a critical section.
This has been applied first only on HEAD as of 56b6625, but as per
discussion with Tom Lane and Álvaro Herrera, a backpatch is preferred to
keep all the branches consistent and to respect the transam's README

This problem has been introduced by commit 272248a0c1 where we started
assigning the subtransactions to the top-level transaction when we mark
both the top-level transaction and its subtransactions as containing
catalog changes. After we assign subtransactions to the top-level
transaction, we were not allowed to execute any invalidations associated
with it when we decide to skip the transaction.
The reason to assign the subtransactions to the top-level transaction was
to avoid the assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder() as they have the
same LSN when we sometimes start accumulating transaction changes for
partial transactions after the restart. Now that with commit 64ff0fe4e8,
we skip this assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we start
decoding the contents of the transaction, so, there is no reason for such
an assignment anymore.
The assignment change was introduced in 15 and prior versions but this bug
doesn't exist in branches prior to 14 since we don't add invalidation
messages to subtransactions. We decided to backpatch through 11 for
consistency but not for 10 since its final release is near.

When the logical decoding restarts from NEW_CID, since there is no
association between the top transaction and its subtransaction, both are
created as top transactions and have the same LSN. This caused the
assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder().
This patch skips the assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we
start decoding the contents of the transaction, specifically
start_decoding_at LSN in SnapBuild. This is okay because we don't
guarantee to make the association between top transaction and
subtransaction until we try to decode the actual contents of transaction.
The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN should have
been checked before the restart.
The other assertion failure is due to the reason that we forgot to track
that we have considered top-level transaction id in the list of catalog
changing transactions that were committed when one of its subtransactions
is marked as containing catalog change.

The postmaster is not supposed to do anything that depends
fundamentally on shared memory contents, because that creates
the risk that a backend crash that trashes shared memory will
take the postmaster down with it, preventing automatic recovery.
In commit 969d7cd43 I lost sight of this principle and coded
AssignPostmasterChildSlot() in such a way that it could fail
or even crash if the shared PMSignalState structure became
corrupted. Remarkably, we've not seen field reports of such
crashes; but I managed to induce one while testing the recent
changes around palloc chunk headers.
To fix, make a semi-duplicative state array inside the postmaster
so that we need consult only local state while choosing a "child
slot" for a new backend. Ensure that other postmaster-executed
routines in pmsignal.c don't have critical dependencies on the
shared state, either. Corruption of PMSignalState might now
lead ReleasePostmasterChildSlot() to conclude that backend X
failed, when actually backend Y was the one that trashed things.
But that doesn't matter, because we'll force a cluster-wide reset
regardless.

DEFAULT markers appearing in an INSERT on an updatable view
could be mis-processed if they were in a multi-row VALUES clause.
This would lead to strange errors such as "cache lookup failed
for type NNNN", or in older branches even to crashes.
The cause is that commit 41531e42d tried to re-use rewriteValuesRTE()
to remove any SetToDefault nodes (that hadn't previously been replaced
by the view's own default values) appearing in "product" queries,
that is DO ALSO queries. That's fundamentally wrong because the
DO ALSO queries might not even be INSERTs; and even if they are,
their targetlists don't necessarily match the view's column list,
so that almost all the logic in rewriteValuesRTE() is inapplicable.
What we want is a narrow focus on replacing any such nodes with NULL
constants. (That is, in this context we are interpreting the defaults
as being strictly those of the view itself; and we already replaced
any that aren't NULL.) We could add still more !force_nulls tests
to further lobotomize rewriteValuesRTE(); but it seems cleaner to
split out this case to a new function, restoring rewriteValuesRTE()
to the charter it had before.

clang 15+ will issue a set-but-not-used warning when the only
use of a variable is in autoincrements (e.g., "foo++;").
That's perfectly sensible, but it detects a few more cases that
we'd not noticed before. Silence the warnings with our usual
methods, such as PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, or in one case by
actually removing a useless variable.
One thing that we can't nicely get rid of is that with %pure-parser,
Bison emits "yynerrs" as a local variable that falls foul of this
warning. To silence those, I inserted "(void) yynerrs;" in the
top-level productions of affected grammars.

The API contract for planstate_tree_walker() callbacks is that they
take a PlanState pointer and a context pointer. Somebody figured
they could save a couple lines of code by ignoring that, and passing
ExecShutdownNode itself as the walker even though it has but one
argument. Somewhat remarkably, we've gotten away with that so far.
However, it seems clear that the upcoming C2x standard means to
forbid such cases, and compilers that actively break such code
likely won't be far behind. So spend the extra few lines of code
to do it honestly with a separate walker function.
In HEAD, we might as well go further and remove ExecShutdownNode's
useless return value. I left that as-is in back branches though,
to forestall complaints about ABI breakage.

importance before our stable branches are all out of service.

In branches before commit 4be058fe9, we have to prevent flattening
of subqueries with empty jointrees if the subqueries' output
columns might need to be wrapped in PlaceHolderVars. That's
because the empty jointree would result in empty phrels for the
PlaceHolderVars, meaning we'd be unable to figure out where to
evaluate them. However, we've failed to keep is_simple_subquery's
check for this hazard in sync with what pull_up_simple_subquery
actually does. The former is checking "lowest_outer_join != NULL",
whereas the conditions pull_up_simple_subquery actually uses are
if (lowest_nulling_outer_join != NULL)
if (containing_appendrel != NULL)
if (parse->groupingSets)
So the outer-join test is overly conservative, while we missed out
checking for appendrels and groupingSets. The appendrel omission
is harmless, because in that case we also check is_safe_append_member
which will also reject such subqueries. The groupingSets omission
is a bug though, leading to assertion failures or planner errors
such as "variable not found in subplan target lists".
is_simple_subquery has access to none of the three variables used
in the correct tests, but its callers do, so I chose to have them
pass down a bool corresponding to the OR of these conditions.
(The need for duplicative conditions would be a maintenance
hazard in actively-developed code, but I'm not too concerned
about it in branches that have only ~ 1 year to live.)

The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is
adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot
for the ForeignScan node. But in the case where the outer plan contains
an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for
evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local
conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error.
The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the
Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra
columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them
up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in

they have no input parameters, which means that the problem we
originally needed to fix can't happen with them. Therefore, there's
no need to clone their output parameters, and thus it doesn't hurt
that we'll fail to see them in the first pass over the targetlist.
Nonetheless, this complicates matters greatly, because now we have
to distinguish output Params of initplans (which shouldn't get
renumbered) from those of regular subplans (which should).
This also breaks the simplistic scheme I used of assuming that the
subplans found in the targetlist have consecutive subLinkIds.
We really can't avoid the need to know the subplans' subLinkIds in
this code. To fix that, add subLinkId as the last field of SubPlan.
We can get away with that change in back branches because SubPlan
nodes will never be stored in the catalogs, and there's no ABI
break for external code that might be looking at the existing
fields of SubPlan.
Secondly, rewriteTargetListIU might have rolled up multiple
FieldStores or SubscriptingRefs into one targetlist entry,
breaking the assumption that there's at most one Param to fix
per targetlist entry. (That assumption is OK I think in the
ruleutils.c code I stole the logic from in 18f51083c, because
that only deals with pre-rewrite query trees. But it's
definitely not OK here.) Abandon that shortcut and just do a
full tree walk on the targetlist to ensure we find all the
Params we have to change.
Per bug #17606 from Andre Lin. As before, only v10-v13 need the
patch.

Postgres 14 commit 5b861baa taught nbtree VACUUM to tolerate buggy
opclasses. VACUUM's inability to locate a to-be-deleted page's downlink
in the parent page was logged instead of throwing an error. VACUUM
could just press on with vacuuming the index, and vacuuming the table as
a whole.
There are now anecdotal reports of this error causing problems that were
much more disruptive than the underlying index corruption ever could be.
Anything that makes VACUUM unable to make forward progress against one
table/index ultimately risks making the system enter xidStopLimit mode.
There is no good reason to take any chances here, so backpatch the
hardening commit.

Improve documentation regarding the limitations of unique and primary key
constraints on partitioned tables. The existing documentation didn't make
it clear that the constraint columns had to be present in the partition
key as bare columns. The reader could be led to believe that it was ok to
include the constraint columns as part of a function call's parameters or
as part of an expression. Additionally, the documentation didn't mention
anything about the fact that we disallow unique and primary key
constraints if the partition keys contain *any* function calls or
expressions, regardless of if the constraint columns appear as columns
elsewhere in the partition key.
The confusion here was highlighted by a report on the general mailing list
by James Vanns.

Commits 3f7323cbb et al missed the possibility that the Params
they are looking for could be buried under implicit coercions,
as well as other stuff that processIndirection() could add to
the original targetlist entry. Copy the code in ruleutils.c
that deals with such cases. (I thought about refactoring so
that there's just one copy; but seeing that we only need this
in old back branches, it seems not worth the trouble.)
Per off-list report from Andre Lin. As before, only v10-v13
need the patch.
