This custom opclass was already in use in other tests -- defined
independently in every such file. Move the definition to the earliest
test that uses it, and keep it around so that later tests can reuse it.
Use it in the tests for pruning of hash partitioning, and since this
makes the second expected file unnecessary, put those tests back in
partition_prune.sql whence they sprang.

We were using CurrentMemoryContext to put the partsupfunc fmgr_info
into, which isn't right, because we want the PartitionKey as a whole to
be in the isolated Relation->rd_partkeycxt context. This can cause a
crash with user-defined support functions in the operator classes used
by partitioning keys. (Maybe this can cause problems with core-supplied
opclasses too, not sure.)
This is demonstrably broken in Postgres 10, too, but the initial
proposed fix runs afoul of a problem discussed back when 8a0596cb65
("Get rid of copy_partition_key") reorganized that code: namely that it
is possible to jump out of RelationBuildPartitionKey because of some
error and leave a dangling memory context child of CacheMemoryContext.
Also, while reviewing this I noticed that the removed-in-pg11
copy_partition_key was doing something wrong, unfixed in pg10, namely
doing memcpy() on the FmgrInfo, which is bogus (should be doing
fmgr_info_copy). Therefore, in branch pg10, the sane fix seems to be to
backpatch both the aforementioned 8a0596cb65 and its followup
be2343221f ("Protect against hypothetical memory leaks in
RelationGetPartitionKey"), so do that, then apply the fmgr_info memcxt
bugfix on top.
Add a test case exercising btree-based custom operator classes, which
causes a crash prior to this fix. This is not a security problem,
because in order to create an operator class you need superuser
privileges anyway.

If the table being attached contained values that contradict the default
partition's partition constraint, it would fail to complain, because
CommandCounterIncrement changes in 4dba331cb3 coupled with some bogus
coding in the existing ValidatePartitionConstraints prevented the
partition constraint from being validated after all -- or rather, it
caused to constraint to become an empty one, always succeeding.
Fix by not re-reading the OID of the default partition in
ATExecAttachPartition. To forestall similar problems, revise the
existing code:
* rename routine from ValidatePartitionConstraints() to
QueuePartitionConstraintValidation, to better represent what it
actually does.
* add an Assert() to make sure that when queueing a constraint for a
partition we're not overwriting a constraint previously queued.
* add an Assert() that we don't try to invoke the special-purpose
validation of the default partition when attaching the default
partition itself.
While at it, change some loops to obtain partition OIDs from
partdesc->oids rather than find_all_inheritors; reduce the lock level
of partitions being scanned from AccessExclusiveLock to ShareLock;
rewrite QueuePartitionConstraintValidation in a recursive fashion rather
than repetitive.

index params to propagate to child tables. Add tests covering this case.
Amit Langote and Alexander Korotkov.
I'd hoped that commit 3b8f6e75f was sufficient to ensure parallel safety
even when a build started in a subdirectory requires rebuilding of
generated headers. This isn't so, because making submake-generated-headers
a prerequisite of "all" isn't enough to ensure it's completed before
starting on "all"'s other prerequisites. The explicit dependencies we put
on the recursive make targets ensure safe ordering before we recurse into
child directories, but they don't protect targets to be made in the current
directory. Hence, put back some ordering dependencies in directories that
we've traditionally expected to be starting points for "standalone" builds,
to wit src/pl/plpython and src/test/regress. (The former needs this in
order to minimize the work involved in building for both python 2 and
python 3; the latter to support packagings that make the regression tests
available for out-of-build-tree execution.) Adjust some other dependencies
so that these two cases work correctly even at high -j settings.
I'm not terribly happy with this partial solution, but I don't see a
way to do better without massive makefile restructuring, which we surely
aren't doing at this point in the development cycle. In any case, it's
little if any worse than what we had in prior releases.

Commit 372728b0d created some problems for usages like building a
subdirectory without having first done "make all" at the top level,
or for proceeding directly to "make install" without "make all".
The only reasonably clean way to fix this seems to be to force the
submake-generated-headers rule to fire in *any* "make all" or "make
install" command anywhere in the tree. To avoid lots of redundant work,
as well as parallel make jobs possibly clobbering each others' output, we
still need to be sure that the rule fires only once in a recursive build.
For that, adopt the same MAKELEVEL hack previously used for "temp-install".
But try to document it a bit better.
The submake-errcodes mechanism previously used in src/port/ and src/common/
is subsumed by this, so we can get rid of those special cases. It was
inadequate for src/common/ anyway after the aforesaid commit, and it always
risked parallel attempts to build errcodes.h.

I have, at least for now, left the pg_verify_checksums tool in place, as
this tool can be very valuable without the rest of the patch as well,

This rectifies an oversight in commit 8224de4f4, by adding a new

Allow the cluster to be optionally init'd with read access for the

This means a relatively non-privileged user can perform a backup of the
cluster without requiring write privileges, which enhances security.
The mode of PGDATA is used to determine whether group permissions are
enabled for directory and file creates. This method was chosen as it's
simple and works well for the various utilities that write into PGDATA.
Changing the mode of PGDATA manually will not automatically change the
mode of all the files contained therein. If the user would like to
enable group access on an existing cluster then changing the mode of all
the existing files will be required. Note that pg_upgrade will
automatically change the mode of all migrated files if the new cluster
is init'd with the -g option.
Tests are included for the backend and all the utilities which operate

Existing partition pruning is only able to work at plan time, for query
quals that appear in the parsed query. This is good but limiting, as
there can be parameters that appear later that can be usefully used to
further prune partitions.
This commit adds support for pruning subnodes of Append which cannot
possibly contain any matching tuples, during execution, by evaluating
Params to determine the minimum set of subnodes that can possibly match.
We support more than just simple Params in WHERE clauses. Support
additionally includes:
1. Parameterized Nested Loop Joins: The parameter from the outer side of the
join can be used to determine the minimum set of inner side partitions to
scan.
2. Initplans: Once an initplan has been executed we can then determine which
partitions match the value from the initplan.
Partition pruning is performed in two ways. When Params external to the plan
are found to match the partition key we attempt to prune away unneeded Append
subplans during the initialization of the executor. This allows us to bypass
the initialization of non-matching subplans meaning they won't appear in the
EXPLAIN or EXPLAIN ANALYZE output.
For parameters whose value is only known during the actual execution
then the pruning of these subplans must wait. Subplans which are
eliminated during this stage of pruning are still visible in the EXPLAIN
output. In order to determine if pruning has actually taken place, the
EXPLAIN ANALYZE must be viewed. If a certain Append subplan was never
executed due to the elimination of the partition then the execution
timing area will state "(never executed)". Whereas, if, for example in
the case of parameterized nested loops, the number of loops stated in
the EXPLAIN ANALYZE output for certain subplans may appear lower than
others due to the subplan having been scanned fewer times. This is due
to the list of matching subnodes having to be evaluated whenever a
parameter which was found to match the partition key changes.
This commit required some additional infrastructure that permits the
building of a data structure which is able to perform the translation of
the matching partition IDs, as returned by get_matching_partitions, into
the list index of a subpaths list, as exist in node types such as
Append, MergeAppend and ModifyTable. This allows us to translate a list
of clauses into a Bitmapset of all the subpath indexes which must be
included to satisfy the clause list.

When an update moves a row between partitions (supported since
2f17844104), our normal logic for following update chains in READ
COMMITTED mode doesn't work anymore. Cross partition updates are
modeled as an delete from the old and insert into the new
partition. No ctid chain exists across partitions, and there's no
convenient space to introduce that link.
Not throwing an error in a partitioned context when one would have
been thrown without partitioning is obviously problematic. This commit
introduces infrastructure to detect when a tuple has been moved, not
just plainly deleted. That allows to throw an error when encountering
a deletion that's actually a move, while attempting to following a
ctid chain.
The row deleted as part of a cross partition update is marked by
pointing it's t_ctid to an invalid block, instead of self as a normal
update would. That was deemed to be the least invasive and most
future proof way to represent the knowledge, given how few infomask
bits are there to be recycled (there's also some locking issues with
using infomask bits).
External code following ctid chains should be updated to check for
moved tuples. The most likely consequence of not doing so is a missed
error.

This patch introduces INCLUDE clause to index definition. This clause
specifies a list of columns which will be included as a non-key part in
the index. The INCLUDE columns exist solely to allow more queries to
benefit from index-only scans. Also, such columns don't need to have
appropriate operator classes. Expressions are not supported as INCLUDE
columns since they cannot be used in index-only scans.
Index access methods supporting INCLUDE are indicated by amcaninclude flag
in IndexAmRoutine. For now, only B-tree indexes support INCLUDE clause.
In B-tree indexes INCLUDE columns are truncated from pivot index tuples
(tuples located in non-leaf pages and high keys). Therefore, B-tree indexes
now might have variable number of attributes. This patch also provides
generic facility to support that: pivot tuples contain number of their
attributes in t_tid.ip_posid. Free 13th bit of t_info is used for indicating
that. This facility will simplify further support of index suffix truncation.
The changes of above are backward-compatible, pg_upgrade doesn't need special
handling of B-tree indexes for that.

those quals.
At present, this targets planner-time partition pruning, but there exist

This makes it possible to turn checksums on in a live cluster, without
the previous need for dump/reload or logical replication (and to turn it
off).
Enabling checkusm starts a background process in the form of a
launcher/worker combination that goes through the entire database and
recalculates checksums on each and every page. Only when all pages have
been checksummed are they fully enabled in the cluster. Any failure of
the process will revert to checksums off and the process has to be
started.
This adds a new WAL record that indicates the state of checksums, so
the process works across replicated clusters.

This reworks how the tests to run are defined. Instead of having to
define all runs for all tests, we define those tests which should pass
(generally using one of the defined broad hashes), add in any which
should be specific for this test, and exclude any specific runs that
shouldn't pass for this test. This ends up removing some 4k+ lines
(more than half the file) but, more importantly, greatly simplifies the
way runs-to-be-tested are defined.
As discussed in the updated comments, for example, take the test which
does CREATE TABLE test_table. That CREATE TABLE should show up in all
'full' runs of pg_dump, except those cases where 'test_table' is
excluded, of course, and that's exactly how the test gets defined now
(modulo a few other related cases, like where we dump only that table,
or we dump the schema it's in, or we exclude the schema it's in):
like => {
%full_runs,
%dump_test_schema_runs,
only_dump_test_table => 1,
section_pre_data => 1, },
unlike => {
exclude_dump_test_schema => 1,
exclude_test_table => 1, }, },
Next, we no longer expect every run to be listed for every test. If a
run is listed in 'like' (directly or through a hash) then it's a 'like',
unless it's listed in 'unlike' in which case it's an 'unlike'. If it
isn't listed in either, then it's considered an 'unlike' automatically.
Lastly, this changes the code to no longer use like/unlike but rather to
use 'ok()' with 'diag()' which allows much more control over what gets
spit out to the screen. Gone are the days of the entire dump being sent
to the console, now you'll just get a couple of lines for each failing
test which say the test that failed and the run that it failed on.
This covers both the pg_dump TAP tests in src/bin/pg_dump and those in
src/test/modules/test_pg_dump.
Vacuum of index consists from two stages: multiple (zero of more) ambulkdelete
calls and one amvacuumcleanup call. When workload on particular table
is append-only, then autovacuum isn't intended to touch this table. However,
user may run vacuum manually in order to fill visibility map and get benefits
of index-only scans. Then ambulkdelete wouldn't be called for indexes
of such table (because no heap tuples were deleted), only amvacuumcleanup would
be called In this case, amvacuumcleanup would perform full index scan for
two objectives: put recyclable pages into free space map and update index
statistics.
This patch allows btvacuumclanup to skip full index scan when two conditions
are satisfied: no pages are going to be put into free space map and index
statistics isn't stalled. In order to check first condition, we store
oldest btpo_xact in the meta-page. When it's precedes RecentGlobalXmin, then
there are some recyclable pages. In order to check second condition we store
number of heap tuples observed during previous full index scan by cleanup.
If fraction of newly inserted tuples is less than
vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor, then statistics isn't considered to be
stalled. vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor can be defined as both reloption and GUC (default).
This patch bumps B-tree meta-page version. Upgrade of meta-page is performed
"on the fly": during VACUUM meta-page is rewritten with new version. No special
handling in pg_upgrade is required.

We were being careless in some places about the order of -L switches in
link command lines, such that -L switches referring to external directories
could come before those referring to directories within the build tree.
This made it possible to accidentally link a system-supplied library, for
example /usr/lib/libpq.so, in place of the one built in the build tree.
Hilarity ensued, the more so the older the system-supplied library is.
To fix, break LDFLAGS into two parts, a sub-variable LDFLAGS_INTERNAL
and the main LDFLAGS variable, both of which are "recursively expanded"
so that they can be incrementally adjusted by different makefiles.
Establish a policy that -L switches for directories in the build tree
must always be added to LDFLAGS_INTERNAL, while -L switches for external
directories must always be added to LDFLAGS. This is sufficient to
ensure a safe search order. For simplicity, we typically also put -l
switches for the respective libraries into those same variables.
(Traditional make usage would have us put -l switches into LIBS, but
cleaning that up is a project for another day, as there's no clear
need for it.)
This turns out to also require separating SHLIB_LINK into two variables,
SHLIB_LINK and SHLIB_LINK_INTERNAL, with a similar rule about which
switches go into which variable. And likewise for PG_LIBS.
Although this change might appear to affect external users of pgxs.mk,
I think it doesn't; they shouldn't have any need to touch the _INTERNAL
variables.
In passing, tweak src/common/Makefile so that the value of CPPFLAGS
recorded in pg_config lacks "-DFRONTEND" and the recorded value of
LDFLAGS lacks "-L../../../src/common". Both of those things are
mistakes, apparently introduced during prior code rearrangements,
as old versions of pg_config don't print them. In general we don't
want anything that's specific to the src/common subdirectory to
appear in those outputs.
This is certainly a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field
complaints, I'm unsure whether it's worth the risk of back-patching.
In any case it seems wise to see what the buildfarm makes of it first.

MERGE performs actions that modify rows in the target table
using a source table or query. MERGE provides a single SQL
statement that can conditionally INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE rows
a task that would other require multiple PL statements.
e.g.
MERGE INTO target AS t
USING source AS s
ON t.tid = s.sid
WHEN MATCHED AND t.balance > s.delta THEN
UPDATE SET balance = t.balance - s.delta
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED AND s.delta > 0 THEN
INSERT VALUES (s.sid, s.delta)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
DO NOTHING;
MERGE works with regular and partitioned tables, including
column and row security enforcement, as well as support for
row, statement and transition triggers.
MERGE is optimized for OLTP and is parameterizable, though
also useful for large scale ETL/ELT. MERGE is not intended
to be used in preference to existing single SQL commands
for INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE since there is some overhead.
MERGE can be used statically from PL/pgSQL.
MERGE does not yet support inheritance, write rules,
RETURNING clauses, updatable views or foreign tables.
MERGE follows SQL Standard per the most recent SQL:2016.
Includes full tests and documentation, including full
isolation tests to demonstrate the concurrent behavior.
This version written from scratch in 2017 by Simon Riggs,
using docs and tests originally written in 2009. Later work
from Pavan Deolasee has been both complex and deep, leaving
the lead author credit now in his hands.

A Bloom filter is a space-efficient, probabilistic data structure that
can be used to test set membership. Callers will sometimes incur false
positives, but never false negatives. The rate of false positives is a
function of the total number of elements and the amount of memory
available for the Bloom filter.
Two classic applications of Bloom filters are cache filtering, and data
synchronization testing. Any user of Bloom filters must accept the
possibility of false positives as a cost worth paying for the benefit in
space efficiency.
This commit adds a test harness extension module, test_bloomfilter. It
can be used to get a sense of how the Bloom filter implementation
performs under varying conditions.
This is infrastructure for the upcoming "heapallindexed" amcheck patch,
which verifies the consistency of a heap relation against one of its
indexes.

If the toplevel scan/join target list is parallel-safe, postpone
generating Gather (or Gather Merge) paths until after the toplevel has
been adjusted to return it. This (correctly) makes queries with
expensive functions in the target list more likely to choose a
parallel plan, since the cost of the plan now reflects the fact that
the evaluation will happen in the workers rather than the leader.
The original complaint about this problem was from Jeff Janes.
If the toplevel scan/join relation is partitioned, recursively apply
the changes to all partitions. This sometimes allows us to get rid of
Result nodes, because Append is not projection-capable but its
children may be. It also cleans up what appears to be incorrect SRF
handling from commit e2f1eb0ee30d144628ab523432320f174a2c8966: the old
code had no knowledge of SRFs for child scan/join rels.
Because we now use create_projection_path() in some cases where we
formerly used apply_projection_to_path(), this changes the ordering
of columns in some queries generated by postgres_fdw. Update
regression outputs accordingly.

Resolve build farm failures from c203d6cf81,
diagnosed by Tom Lane.
The output of pg_stat_get_xact_tuples_hot_updated() and friends
is not guaranteed to show anything after the transaction completes.
Data is flushed slowly to stats collector, so using them can
give timing issues.
Currently adding a column to a table with a non-NULL default results in
a rewrite of the table. For large tables this can be both expensive and
disruptive. This patch removes the need for the rewrite as long as the
default value is not volatile. The default expression is evaluated at
the time of the ALTER TABLE and the result stored in a new column
(attmissingval) in pg_attribute, and a new column (atthasmissing) is set
to true. Any existing row when fetched will be supplied with the
attmissingval. New rows will have the supplied value or the default and
so will never need the attmissingval.
Any time the table is rewritten all the atthasmissing and attmissingval
settings for the attributes are cleared, as they are no longer needed.
The most visible code change from this is in heap_attisnull, which
acquires a third TupleDesc argument, allowing it to detect a missing
value if there is one. In many cases where it is known that there will
not be any (e.g. catalog relations) NULL can be passed for this
argument.

Remember the last page of an index insert if it's the rightmost leaf
page. If the next entry belongs on and can fit in the remembered page,
insert the new entry there as long as we can get a lock on the page.
Otherwise, fall back on the more expensive method of searching for
the right place to insert the entry.
This provides a performance improvement for the common case where an
index entry is for monotonically increasing or nearly monotonically

For years, our makefiles have correctly observed that "there is no correct
way to write a rule that generates two files". However, what we did is to
provide empty rules that "generate" the secondary output files from the
primary one, and that's not right either. Depending on the details of
the creating process, the primary file might end up timestamped later than
one or more secondary files, causing subsequent make runs to consider the
secondary file(s) out of date. That's harmless in a plain build, since
make will just re-execute the empty rule and nothing happens. But it's
fatal in a VPATH build, since make will expect the secondary file to be
rebuilt in the build directory. This would manifest as "file not found"
failures during VPATH builds from tarballs, if we were ever unlucky enough
to ship a tarball with apparently out-of-date secondary files. (It's not
clear whether that has ever actually happened, but it definitely could.)
To ensure that secondary output files have timestamps >= their primary's,
change our makefile convention to be that we provide a "touch $@" action
not an empty rule. Also, make sure that this rule actually gets invoked
during a distprep run, else the hazard remains.
It's been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.
In HEAD, I skipped the changes in src/backend/catalog/Makefile, because
those rules are due to get replaced soon in the bootstrap data format
patch, and there seems no need to create a merge issue for that patch.
If for some reason we fail to land that patch in v11, we'll need to
back-fill the changes in that one makefile from v10.

If the partition keys of input relation are part of the GROUP BY
clause, all the rows belonging to a given group come from a single
partition. This allows aggregation/grouping over a partitioned
relation to be broken down * into aggregation/grouping on each
partition. This should be no worse, and often better, than the normal
approach.
If the GROUP BY clause does not contain all the partition keys, we can
still perform partial aggregation for each partition and then finalize
aggregation after appending the partial results. This is less certain
to be a win, but it's still useful.

Code that prints out the contents of setconfig or proconfig arrays in
SQL format needs to handle GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables differently from
other ones, because for those variables, flatten_set_variable_args()
already applied a layer of quoting. The value can therefore safely
be printed as-is, and indeed must be, or flatten_set_variable_args()
will muck it up completely on reload. For all other GUC variables,
it's necessary and sufficient to quote the value as a SQL literal.
We'd recognized the need for this long ago, but mis-analyzed the
need slightly, thinking that all GUC_LIST_INPUT variables needed
the special treatment. That's actually wrong, since a valid value
of a LIST variable might include characters that need quoting,
although no existing variables accept such values.
More to the point, we hadn't made any particular effort to keep the
various places that deal with this up-to-date with the set of variables
that actually need special treatment, meaning that we'd do the wrong
thing with, for example, temp_tablespaces values. This affects dumping
of SET clauses attached to functions, as well as ALTER DATABASE/ROLE SET
commands.
In ruleutils.c we can fix it reasonably honestly by exporting a guc.c
function that allows discovering the flags for a given GUC variable.
But pg_dump doesn't have easy access to that, so continue the old method
of having a hard-wired list of affected variable names. At least we can
fix it to have just one list not two, and update the list to match
current reality.
A remaining problem with this is that it only works for built-in
GUC variables. pg_dump's list obvious knows nothing of third-party
extensions, and even the "ask guc.c" method isn't bulletproof since
the relevant extension might not be loaded. There's no obvious
solution to that, so for now, we'll just have to discourage extension
authors from inventing custom GUCs that need GUC_LIST_QUOTE.
This has been busted for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

Currently, if operator_predicate_proof() is given an operator clause like
"something op NULL", it just throws up its hands and reports it can't prove
anything. But we can often do better than that, if the operator is strict,
because then we know that the clause returns NULL overall. Depending on
whether we're trying to prove or refute something, and whether we need
weak or strong semantics for NULL, this may be enough to prove the
implication, especially when we rely on the standard rule that "false
implies anything". In particular, this lets us do something useful with
questions like "does X IN (1,3,5,NULL) imply X <= 5?" The null entry
in the IN list can effectively be ignored for this purpose, but the
proof rules were not previously smart enough to deduce that.
This patch is by me, but it owes something to previous work by
Amit Langote to try to solve problems of the form mentioned.

system, and use it in the new test to create the tablespace. The new
function is essentially a NOOP everywhere but msys.
We make some changes to ModifyTableState and the EState it uses whenever
we route tuples to partitions; but we weren't restoring properly in all
cases, possibly causing crashes when partitions with different tuple
descriptors are targeted by tuples inserted in the same command.
Refactor some code, creating ExecPrepareTupleRouting, to encapsulate the
needed state changing logic, and have it invoked one level above its
current place (ie. put it in ExecModifyTable instead of ExecInsert);
this makes it all more readable.
Add a test case to exercise this.
We don't support having views as partitions; and since only views can
have INSTEAD OF triggers, there is no point in testing for INSTEAD OF
when processing insertions into a partitioned table. Remove code that
appears to support this (but which is actually never relevant.)

"UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name" failed, with an error message
like "cannot extract system attribute from virtual tuple", if the cursor
was using a index-only scan for the target table. Fix it by digging the
current TID out of the indexscan state.
It seems likely that the same failure could occur for CustomScan plans
and perhaps some FDW plan types, so that leaving this to be treated as an
internal error with an obscure message isn't as good an idea as it first
seemed. Hence, add a bit of heaptuple.c infrastructure to let us deliver
a more on-topic message. I chose to make the message match what you get
for the case where execCurrentOf can't identify the target scan node at
all, "cursor "foo" is not a simply updatable scan of table "bar"".
Perhaps it should be different, but we can always adjust that later.
In the future, it might be nice to provide hooks that would let custom
scan providers and/or FDWs deal with this in other ways; but that's
not a suitable topic for a back-patchable bug fix.

Many of the objects we create during the regression tests are put in the
public schema, so that using the same names in different regression tests
creates a hazard of test failures if any two such scripts run concurrently.
This patch cleans up a bunch of latent hazards of that sort, as well as two
live hazards.
The current situation in this regard is far worse than it was a year or two
back, because practically all of the partitioning-related test cases have
reused table names with enthusiasm. I despaired of cleaning up that mess
within the five most-affected tests (create_table, alter_table, insert,
update, inherit); fortunately those don't run concurrently.
Other than partitioning problems, most of the issues boil down to using
names like "foo", "bar", "tmp", etc, without thought for the fact that
other test scripts might use similar names concurrently. I've made an
effort to make all such names more specific.
One of the live hazards was that commit 7421f4b8 caused with.sql to
create a table named "test", conflicting with a similarly-named table
in alter_table.sql; this was exposed in the buildfarm recently.
The other one was that join.sql and transactions.sql both create tables
named "foo" and "bar"; but join.sql's uses of those names date back
only to December or so.
Since commit 7421f4b8 was back-patched to v10, back-patch a minimal
fix for that problem. The rest of this is just future-proofing.

Since these names are global, using the same ones in different regression
tests creates a hazard of test failures if any two such scripts run
concurrently. Let's establish a policy of not doing that. In the cases
where a conflict existed, I chose to rename both sides: in principle one
script or the other could've been left in possession of the common name,
but that seems to just invite more trouble of the same sort.
There are a number of places where scripts are using names that seem
unduly generic, but in the absence of actual conflicts I left them alone.
In addition, fix insert.sql's use of "someone_else" as a role name.
That's a flat out violation of longstanding project policy, so back-patch
that change to v10 where the usage appeared. The rest of this is just
future-proofing, as no two of these scripts are actually run concurrently
in the existing parallel_schedule.

A simple UNION ALL gets flattened into an appendrel of subquery
RTEs, but up until now it's been impossible for the appendrel to use
the partial paths for the subqueries, so we can implement the
appendrel as a Parallel Append but only one with non-partial paths
as children.
There are three separate obstacles to removing that limitation.
First, when planning a subquery, propagate any partial paths to the
final_rel so that they are potentially visible to outer query levels
(but not if they have initPlans attached, because that wouldn't be
safe). Second, after planning a subquery, propagate any partial paths
for the final_rel to the subquery RTE in the outer query level in the
same way we do for non-partial paths. Third, teach finalize_plan() to
account for the possibility that the fake parameter we use for rescan
signalling when the plan contains a Gather (Merge) node may be
propagated from an outer query level.

One of the things canonicalize_qual() does is to remove constant-NULL
subexpressions of top-level AND/OR clauses. It does that on the assumption
that what it's given is a top-level WHERE clause, so that NULL can be
treated like FALSE. Although this is documented down inside a subroutine
of canonicalize_qual(), it wasn't mentioned in the documentation of that
function itself, and some callers hadn't gotten that memo.
Notably, commit d007a9505 caused get_relation_constraints() to apply
canonicalize_qual() to CHECK constraints. That allowed constraint
exclusion to misoptimize situations in which a CHECK constraint had a
provably-NULL subclause, as seen in the regression test case added here,
in which a child table that should be scanned is not. (Although this
thinko is ancient, the test case doesn't fail before 9.2, for reasons
I've not bothered to track down in detail. There may be related cases
that do fail before that.)
More recently, commit f0e44751d added an independent bug by applying
canonicalize_qual() to index expressions, which is even sillier since
those might not even be boolean. If they are, though, I think this
could lead to making incorrect index entries for affected index
expressions in v10. I haven't attempted to prove that though.
To fix, add an "is_check" parameter to canonicalize_qual() to specify
whether it should assume WHERE or CHECK semantics, and make it perform
NULL-elimination accordingly. Adjust the callers to apply the right
semantics, or remove the call entirely in cases where it's not known
that the expression has one or the other semantics. I also removed
the call in some cases involving partition expressions, where it should
be a no-op because such expressions should be canonical already ...
and was a no-op, independently of whether it could in principle have
done something, because it was being handed the qual in implicit-AND
format which isn't what it expects. In HEAD, add an Assert to catch
that type of mistake in future.
This represents an API break for external callers of canonicalize_qual().
While that's intentional in HEAD to make such callers think about which
case applies to them, it seems like something we probably wouldn't be
thanked for in released branches. Hence, in released branches, the
extra parameter is added to a new function canonicalize_qual_ext(),
and canonicalize_qual() is a wrapper that retains its old behavior.
Patch by me with suggestions from Dean Rasheed. Back-patch to all

Commit b08df9cab left things rather poorly documented as far as the
exact semantics of "clause_is_check" mode went. Also, that mode did
not really work correctly for predicate_refuted_by; although given the
lack of specification as to what it should do, as well as the lack
of any actual use-case, that's perhaps not surprising.
Rename "clause_is_check" to "weak" proof mode, and provide specifications
for what it should do. I defined weak refutation as meaning "truth of A
implies non-truth of B", which makes it possible to use the mode in the
part of relation_excluded_by_constraints that checks for mutually
contradictory WHERE clauses. Fix up several places that did things wrong
for that definition. (As far as I can see, these errors would only lead
to failure-to-prove, not incorrect claims of proof, making them not
serious bugs even aside from the fact that v10 contains no use of this
mode. So there seems no need for back-patching.)
In addition, teach predicate_refuted_by_recurse that it can use
predicate_implied_by_recurse after all when processing a strong NOT-clause,
so long as it asks for the correct proof strength. This is an optimization
that could have been included in commit b08df9cab, but wasn't.
Also, simplify and generalize the logic that checks for whether nullness of
the argument of IS [NOT] NULL would force overall nullness of the predicate
or clause. (This results in a change in the partition_prune test's output,
as it is now able to prune an all-nulls partition that it did not recognize
before.)
In passing, in PartConstraintImpliedByRelConstraint, remove bogus
conversion of the constraint list to explicit-AND form and then right back
again; that accomplished nothing except forcing a useless extra level of
recursion inside predicate_implied_by.

I'd initially supposed that predicate_refuted_by(..., true) ought to
say that "A refutes B" means "non-falsity of A implies non-truth of B".
But it seems better to define it as "truth of A implies non-truth of B".
This is more useful in the current system, slightly easier to prove,
and in closer correspondence to the existing code behavior.
With this change, test_predtest no longer claims that any existing
test cases show false proof reports, though there still are cases
where we could prove something and fail to.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5983.1520487191@sss.pgh.pa.us
The predicate-proof code in predtest.c is a bit hard to test as-is:
you have to construct a query whose plan changes depending on the success
of a test, and in tests that have been around for awhile, it's always
possible that the plan shape is now being determined by some other factor.
Our existing regression tests aren't doing real well at providing full
code coverage of predtest.c, either. So, let's add a small test module
that allows directly inspecting the results of predicate_implied_by()
and predicate_refuted_by() for arbitrary boolean expressions.
I chose the set of tests committed here in order to get reasonably
complete code coverage of predtest.c just from running this test
module, and to cover some cases called out as being interesting in
the existing comments. We might want to add more later. But this
set already shows a few cases where perhaps things could be improved.
Indeed, this exercise proves that predicate_refuted_by() is buggy for
the case of clause_is_check = true, though fortunately we aren't using
that case anywhere yet. I'll look into doing something about that in
a separate commit. For now, just memorialize the current behavior.

A before-update row trigger may choose to return the "new" or "old" tuple
unmodified. ExecBRUpdateTriggers failed to consider the second
possibility, and would proceed to free the "old" tuple even if it was the
one returned, leading to subsequent access to already-deallocated memory.
In debug builds this reliably leads to an "invalid memory alloc request
size" failure; in production builds it might accidentally work, but data
corruption is also possible.
This is a very old bug. There are probably a couple of reasons it hasn't
been noticed up to now. It would be more usual to return NULL if one
wanted to suppress the update action; returning "old" is significantly less
efficient since the update will occur anyway. Also, none of the standard
PLs would ever cause this because they all returned freshly-manufactured
tuples even if they were just copying "old". But commit 4b93f5799 changed
that for plpgsql, making it possible to see the bug with a plpgsql trigger.
Still, this is certainly legal behavior for a trigger function, so it's
ExecBRUpdateTriggers's fault not plpgsql's.
It seems worth creating a test case that exercises returning "old" directly
with a C-language trigger; testing this through plpgsql seems unreliable
because its behavior might change again.

The ability to create like-named objects in different schemas opens up
the potential for users to change the behavior of other users' queries,
maliciously or accidentally. When you connect to a PostgreSQL server,
you should remove from your search_path any schema for which a user
other than yourself or superusers holds the CREATE privilege. If you do
not, other users holding CREATE privilege can redefine the behavior of
your commands, causing them to perform arbitrary SQL statements under
your identity. "SET search_path = ..." and "SELECT
pg_catalog.set_config(...)" are not vulnerable to such hijacking, so one
can use either as the first command of a session. As special
exceptions, the following client applications behave as documented
regardless of search_path settings and schema privileges: clusterdb
createdb createlang createuser dropdb droplang dropuser ecpg (not
programs it generates) initdb oid2name pg_archivecleanup pg_basebackup
pg_config pg_controldata pg_ctl pg_dump pg_dumpall pg_isready
pg_receivewal pg_recvlogical pg_resetwal pg_restore pg_rewind pg_standby
pg_test_fsync pg_test_timing pg_upgrade pg_waldump reindexdb vacuumdb
vacuumlo. Not included are core client programs that run user-specified
SQL commands, namely psql and pgbench. PostgreSQL encourages non-core
client applications to do likewise.
Document this in the context of libpq connections, psql connections,
dblink connections, ECPG connections, extension packaging, and schema
usage patterns. The principal defense for applications is "SELECT
pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false)", and the principal
defense for databases is "REVOKE CREATE ON SCHEMA public FROM PUBLIC".
Either one is sufficient to prevent attack. After a REVOKE, consider
auditing the public schema for objects named like pg_catalog objects.
Authors of SECURITY DEFINER functions use some of the same defenses, and
the CREATE FUNCTION reference page already covered them thoroughly.
This is a good opportunity to audit SECURITY DEFINER functions for
robust security practice.

Historically, pg_dump has "set search_path = foo, pg_catalog" when
dumping an object in schema "foo", and has also caused that setting
to be used while restoring the object. This is problematic because
functions and operators in schema "foo" could capture references meant
to refer to pg_catalog entries, both in the queries issued by pg_dump
and those issued during the subsequent restore run. That could
result in dump/restore misbehavior, or in privilege escalation if a
nefarious user installs trojan-horse functions or operators.
This patch changes pg_dump so that it does not change the search_path
dynamically. The emitted restore script sets the search_path to what
was used at dump time, and then leaves it alone thereafter. Created
objects are placed in the correct schema, regardless of the active
search_path, by dint of schema-qualifying their names in the CREATE
commands, as well as in subsequent ALTER and ALTER-like commands.
Since this change requires a change in the behavior of pg_restore
when processing an archive file made according to this new convention,
bump the archive file version number; old versions of pg_restore will
therefore refuse to process files made with new versions of pg_dump.

Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).
Given overlapping or partially redundant join clauses, for example
t1 JOIN t2 ON t1.a = t2.x AND t1.b = t2.x
the planner's EquivalenceClass machinery will ordinarily refactor the
clauses as "t1.a = t1.b AND t1.a = t2.x", so that join processing doesn't
see multiple references to the same EquivalenceClass in a list of join
equality clauses. However, if the join is outer, it's incorrect to derive
a restriction clause on the outer side from the join conditions, so the
clause refactoring does not happen and we end up with overlapping join
conditions. The code that attempted to deal with such cases had several
subtle bugs, which could result in "left and right pathkeys do not match in
mergejoin" or "outer pathkeys do not match mergeclauses" planner errors,
if the selected join plan type was a mergejoin. (It does not appear that
any actually incorrect plan could have been emitted.)
The core of the problem really was failure to recognize that the outer and
inner relations' pathkeys have different relationships to the mergeclause
list. A join's mergeclause list is constructed by reference to the outer
pathkeys, so it will always be ordered the same as the outer pathkeys, but
this cannot be presumed true for the inner pathkeys. If the inner sides of
the mergeclauses contain multiple references to the same EquivalenceClass
({t2.x} in the above example) then a simplistic rendering of the required
inner sort order is like "ORDER BY t2.x, t2.x", but the pathkey machinery
recognizes that the second sort column is redundant and throws it away.
The mergejoin planning code failed to account for that behavior properly.
One error was to try to generate cut-down versions of the mergeclause list
from cut-down versions of the inner pathkeys in the same way as the initial
construction of the mergeclause list from the outer pathkeys was done; this
could lead to choosing a mergeclause list that fails to match the outer
pathkeys. The other problem was that the pathkey cross-checking code in
create_mergejoin_plan treated the inner and outer pathkey lists
identically, whereas actually the expectations for them must be different.
That led to false "pathkeys do not match" failures in some cases, and in
principle could have led to failure to detect bogus plans in other cases,
though there is no indication that such bogus plans could be generated.

Previously, Append didn't charge anything at all, and MergeAppend
charged only cpu_operator_cost, about half the value used here. This
change might make MergeAppend plans slightly more likely to be chosen
than before, since this commit increases the assumed cost for Append
-- with default values -- by 0.005 per tuple but MergeAppend by only
0.0025 per tuple. Since the comparisons required by MergeAppend are
costed separately, it's not clear why MergeAppend needs to be
otherwise more expensive than Append, so hopefully this is OK.
Prior to partition-wise join, it didn't really matter whether or not
an Append node had any cost of its own, because every plan had to use
the same number of Append or MergeAppend nodes and in the same places.
Only the relative cost of Append vs. MergeAppend made a difference.
Now, however, it is possible to avoid some of the Append nodes using a
partition-wise join, so it's worth making an effort. Pending patches
for partition-wise aggregate care too, because an Append of Aggregate
nodes will incur the Append overhead fewer times than an Aggregate
over an Append. Although in most cases this change will favor the use
of partition-wise techniques, it does the opposite when the join
cardinality is greater than the sum of the input cardinalities. Since
this situation arises in an existing regression test, I [rhaas]
adjusted it to keep the overall plan shape approximately the same.

An updating query that reads a CTE within an InitPlan or SubPlan could get

considerations, it can break down if an EPQ plan tree gets built during the

Formerly, DTYPE_REC was used only for variables declared as "record";
variables of named composite types used DTYPE_ROW, which is faster for
some purposes but much less flexible. In particular, the ROW code paths
are entirely incapable of dealing with DDL-caused changes to the number
or data types of the columns of a row variable, once a particular plpgsql
function has been parsed for the first time in a session. And, since the
stored representation of a ROW isn't a tuple, there wasn't any easy way
to deal with variables of domain-over-composite types, since the domain
constraint checking code would expect the value to be checked to be a
tuple. A lesser, but still real, annoyance is that ROW format cannot
represent a true NULL composite value, only a row of per-field NULL
values, which is not exactly the same thing.
Hence, switch to using DTYPE_REC for all composite-typed variables,
whether "record", named composite type, or domain over named composite
type. DTYPE_ROW remains but is used only for its native purpose, to
represent a fixed-at-compile-time list of variables, for instance the
targets of an INTO clause.
To accomplish this without taking significant performance losses, introduce
infrastructure that allows storing composite-type variables as "expanded
objects", similar to the "expanded array" infrastructure introduced in
commit 1dc5ebc90. A composite variable's value is thereby kept (most of
the time) in the form of separate Datums, so that field accesses and
updates are not much more expensive than they were in the ROW format.
This holds the line, more or less, on performance of variables of named
composite types in field-access-intensive microbenchmarks, and makes
variables declared "record" perform much better than before in similar
tests. In addition, the logic involved with enforcing composite-domain
constraints against updates of individual fields is in the expanded
record infrastructure not plpgsql proper, so that it might be reusable
for other purposes.
In further support of this, introduce a typcache feature for assigning a
unique-within-process identifier to each distinct tuple descriptor of
interest; in particular, DDL alterations on composite types result in a new
identifier for that type. This allows very cheap detection of the need to
refresh tupdesc-dependent data. This improves on the "tupDescSeqNo" idea
I had in commit 687f096ea: that assigned identifying sequence numbers to
successive versions of individual composite types, but the numbers were not
unique across different types, nor was there support for assigning numbers
to registered record types.
In passing, allow plpgsql functions to accept as well as return type
"record". There was no good reason for the old restriction, and it
was out of step with most of the other PLs.

Prematurely freeing the EState used to evaluate CALL arguments led, in some
cases, to passing dangling pointers to the procedure. This was masked in
trivial cases because the argument pointers would point to Const nodes in
the original expression tree, and in some other cases because the result
value would end up in the standalone ExprContext rather than in memory
belonging to the EState --- but that wasn't exactly high quality
programming either, because the standalone ExprContext was never
explicitly freed, breaking assorted API contracts.
In addition, using a separate EState for each argument was just silly.

belong to the former rather than be standalone, and clean up the EState

Add explicit collation on the trigger name to avoid locale dependencies.
Also restrict the tables selected, to avoid interference from

This patch adds the ability to use "RANGE offset PRECEDING/FOLLOWING"
frame boundaries in window functions. We'd punted on that back in the
original patch to add window functions, because it was not clear how to
do it in a reasonably data-type-extensible fashion. That problem is
resolved here by adding the ability for btree operator classes to provide
an "in_range" support function that defines how to add or subtract the
RANGE offset value. Factoring it this way also allows the operator class
to avoid overflow problems near the ends of the datatype's range, if it
wishes to expend effort on that. (In the committed patch, the integer
opclasses handle that issue, but it did not seem worth the trouble to
avoid overflow failures for datetime types.)
The patch includes in_range support for the integer_ops opfamily
(int2/int4/int8) as well as the standard datetime types. Support for
other numeric types has been requested, but that seems like suitable
material for a follow-on patch.
In addition, the patch adds GROUPS mode which counts the offset in
ORDER-BY peer groups rather than rows, and it adds the frame_exclusion
options specified by SQL:2011. As far as I can see, we are now fully
up to spec on window framing options.
Existing behaviors remain unchanged, except that I changed the errcode
for a couple of existing error reports to meet the SQL spec's expectation
that negative "offset" values should be reported as SQLSTATE 22013.
Internally and in relevant parts of the documentation, we now consistently
use the terminology "offset PRECEDING/FOLLOWING" rather than "value
PRECEDING/FOLLOWING", since the term "value" is confusingly vague.

Security: CVE-2018-1052
Investigation of 2d2d06b7e2 revealed that
identity values were not applied in some further cases, including
logical replication subscribers, VALUES RTEs, and ALTER TABLE ... ADD
COLUMN. To fix all that, apply the identity column expression in
build_column_default() instead of repeating the same logic at each call
site.
For ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN ... IDENTITY, the previous coding
completely ignored that existing rows for the new column should have
values filled in from the identity sequence. The coding using
build_column_default() fails for this because the sequence ownership
isn't registered until after ALTER TABLE, and we can't do it before
because we don't have the column in the catalog yet. So we specially
remember in ColumnDef the sequence name that we decided on and build a
custom NextValueExpr using that.

The old code generated always generated a constraint of the form
col = ANY(ARRAY[val1, val2, ...]), but that's invalid when col is an
array type. Instead, generate col = val when there's only one value,
col = val1 OR col = val2 OR ... when there are multiple values and
col is of array type, and the old form when there are multiple values
and col is not of an array type.
As a side benefit, this makes constraint exclusion able to prune
a list partition declared to accept a single Boolean value, which
didn't work before.

Backpatch: 10, where simplehash was introduced
Commit 09529a70b changed nodeIndexscan.c and nodeIndexonlyscan.c to
postpone initialization of the indexscan proper until the first tuple
fetch. It overlooked the question of mark/restore behavior, which means
that if some caller attempts to mark the scan before the first tuple fetch,
you get a null pointer dereference.
The only existing user of mark/restore is nodeMergejoin.c, which (somewhat
accidentally) will never attempt to set a mark before the first inner tuple
unless the inner child node is a Material node. Hence the case can't arise
normally, so it seems sufficient to document the assumption at both ends.
However, during an EvalPlanQual recheck, ExecScanFetch doesn't call
IndexNext but just returns the jammed-in test tuple. Therefore, if we're
doing a recheck in a plan tree with a mergejoin with inner indexscan,
it's possible to reach ExecIndexMarkPos with iss_ScanDesc still null,
as reported by Guo Xiang Tan in bug #15032.
Really, when there's a test tuple supplied during an EPQ recheck, touching
the index at all is the wrong thing: rather, the behavior of mark/restore
ought to amount to saving and restoring the es_epqScanDone flag. We can
avoid finding a place to actually save the flag, for the moment, because
given the assumption that no caller will set a mark before fetching a
tuple, es_epqScanDone must always be set by the time we try to mark.
So the actual behavior change required is just to not reach the index
access if a test tuple is supplied.
The set of plan node types that need to consider this issue are those
that support EPQ test tuples (i.e., call ExecScan()) and also support
mark/restore; which is to say, IndexScan, IndexOnlyScan, and perhaps
CustomScan. It's tempting to try to fix the problem in one place by
teaching ExecMarkPos() itself about EPQ; but ExecMarkPos supports some
plan types that aren't Scans, and also it seems risky to make assumptions
about what a CustomScan wants to do here. Also, the most likely future
change here is to decide that we do need to support marks placed before
the first tuple, which would require additional work in IndexScan and
IndexOnlyScan in any case. Hence, fix the EPQ issue in nodeIndexscan.c
and nodeIndexonlyscan.c, accepting the small amount of code duplicated
thereby, and leave it to CustomScan providers to fix this bug if they
have it.
Back-patch to v10 where commit 09529a70b came in. In earlier branches,
the index_markpos() call is a waste of cycles when EPQ is active, but
no more than that, so it doesn't seem appropriate to back-patch further.

We have a lot of code in which option names, which from the user's
viewpoint are logically keywords, are passed through the grammar as plain
identifiers, and then matched to string literals during command execution.
This approach avoids making words into lexer keywords unnecessarily. Some
places matched these strings using plain strcmp, some using pg_strcasecmp.
But the latter should be unnecessary since identifiers would have been
downcased on their way through the parser. Aside from any efficiency
concerns (probably not a big factor), the lack of consistency in this area
creates a hazard of subtle bugs due to different places coming to different
conclusions about whether two option names are the same or different.
Hence, standardize on using strcmp() to match any option names that are
expected to have been fed through the parser.
This does create a user-visible behavioral change, which is that while
formerly all of these would work:
alter table foo set (fillfactor = 50);
alter table foo set (FillFactor = 50);
alter table foo set ("fillfactor" = 50);
alter table foo set ("FillFactor" = 50);
now the last case will fail because that double-quoted identifier is
different from the others. However, none of our documentation says that
you can use a quoted identifier in such contexts at all, and we should
discourage doing so since it would break if we ever decide to parse such
constructs as true lexer keywords rather than poor man's substitutes.
So this shouldn't create a significant compatibility issue for users.

If we're inside a lateral subquery, there may be no unparameterized paths
for a particular child relation of an appendrel, in which case we *must*
be able to create similarly-parameterized paths for each other child
relation, else the planner will fail with "could not devise a query plan
for the given query". This means that there are situations where we'd
better be able to reparameterize at least one path for each child.
This calls into question the assumption in reparameterize_path() that
it can just punt if it feels like it. However, the only case that is
known broken right now is where the child is itself an appendrel so that
all its paths are AppendPaths. (I think possibly I disregarded that in
the original coding on the theory that nested appendrels would get folded
together --- but that only happens *after* reparameterize_path(), so it's
not excused from handling a child AppendPath.) Given that this code's been
like this since 9.3 when LATERAL was introduced, it seems likely we'd have
heard of other cases by now if there were a larger problem.

When CREATE INDEX is run on a partitioned table, create catalog entries
for an index on the partitioned table (which is just a placeholder since
the table proper has no data of its own), and recurse to create actual
indexes on the existing partitions; create them in future partitions
also.
As a convenience gadget, if the new index definition matches some
existing index in partitions, these are picked up and used instead of
creating new ones. Whichever way these indexes come about, they become
attached to the index on the parent table and are dropped alongside it,
and cannot be dropped on isolation unless they are detached first.
To support pg_dump'ing these indexes, add commands
CREATE INDEX ON ONLY <table>
(which creates the index on the parent partitioned table, without
recursing) and
ALTER INDEX ATTACH PARTITION
(which is used after the indexes have been created individually on each
partition, to attach them to the parent index). These reconstruct prior
database state exactly.

This was hardly tested at all. The trigger case was lightly tested by
the logical replication tests, but rules and event triggers were not
tested at all.
If a query against an inheritance tree runs concurrently with an ALTER
TABLE that's disinheriting one of the tree members, it's possible to get
a "could not find inherited attribute" error because after obtaining lock
on the removed member, make_inh_translation_list sees that its columns
have attinhcount=0 and decides they aren't the columns it's looking for.
An ideal fix, perhaps, would avoid including such a just-removed member
table in the query at all; but there seems no way to accomplish that
without adding expensive catalog rechecks or creating a likelihood of
deadlocks. Instead, let's just drop the check on attinhcount. In this
way, a query that's included a just-disinherited child will still
succeed, which is not a completely unreasonable behavior.

branches. Also add an isolation test verifying related behaviors.

If we flatten a subquery whose target list contains constants or
expressions, when those output columns are used in GROUPING SET columns,
the planner was capable of doing the wrong thing by merging a pulled-up
expression into the surrounding expression during const-simplification.
Then the late processing that attempts to match subexpressions to grouping
sets would fail to match those subexpressions to grouping sets, with the
effect that they'd not go to null when expected.
To fix, wrap such subquery outputs in PlaceHolderVars, ensuring that
they preserve their separate identity throughout the planner's expression
processing. This is a bit of a band-aid, because the wrapper defeats
const-simplification even in places where it would be safe to allow.
But a nicer fix would likely be too invasive to back-patch, and the
consequences of the missed optimizations probably aren't large in most
cases.

Commit ab7271677 introduced code that attempts to order the child
scans of a Parallel Append node in a way that will minimize execution
time, based on total cost and startup cost. However, it failed to
think hard about what to do when estimated costs are exactly equal;
a case that's particularly likely to occur when comparing on startup
cost. In such a case the ordering of the child paths would be left
to the whims of qsort, an algorithm that isn't even stable.
We can improve matters by applying the rule used elsewhere in the
planner: if total costs are equal, sort on startup cost, and
vice versa. When both cost estimates are exactly equal, rather
than letting qsort do something unpredictable, sort based on the
child paths' relids, which should typically result in sorting in
inheritance order. (The latter provision requires inventing a
qsort-style comparator for bitmapsets, but maybe we'll have use
for that for other reasons in future.)
This results in a few plan changes in the select_parallel test,
but those all look more reasonable than before, when the actual
underlying cost numbers are taken into account.

I noticed that our code coverage report showed considerable deficiency
in test coverage for PL/pgSQL control statements. Notably, both
exec_stmt_block and most of the loop control statements had very poor
coverage of handling of return/exit/continue result codes from their
child statements; and exec_stmt_fori was seriously lacking in feature
coverage, having no test that exercised its BY or REVERSE features,
nor verification that its overflow defenses work.
Now that we have some infrastructure for plpgsql-specific test scripts,
the natural thing to do is make a new script rather than further extend
plpgsql.sql. So I created a new script plpgsql_control.sql with the
charter to test plpgsql control structures, and moved a few existing
tests there because they fell entirely under that charter. I then
added new test cases that exercise the bits of code complained of above.
Of the five kinds of loop statements, only exec_stmt_while's result code
handling is fully exercised by these tests. That would be a deficiency
as things stand, but a follow-on commit will merge the loop statements'
result code handling into one implementation. So testing each usage of
that implementation separately seems redundant.
In passing, also add a couple test cases to plpgsql.sql to more fully
exercise plpgsql's code related to expanded arrays --- I had thought
that area was sufficiently covered already, but the coverage report

Various Perl scripts we use to generate files were in the habit of
printing things like "generated by $0" into their output files.
That looks like a fine idea at first glance, but it results in
non-reproducible output, because in VPATH builds $0 won't be just
the name of the script file, but a full path for it. We'd prefer
that you get identical results whether using VPATH or not, so this
is a bad thing.
Some of these places also printed their input file name(s), causing
an additional hazard of the same type.
Hence, establish a policy that thou shalt not print $0, nor input file
pathnames, into output files (they're still allowed in error messages,
though). Instead just write the script name verbatim. While we are at
it, we can make these annotations more useful by giving the script's
full relative path name within the PG source tree, eg instead of
Gen_fmgrtab.pl let's print src/backend/utils/Gen_fmgrtab.pl.
Not all of the changes made here actually affect any files shipped

Introduce parallel-aware hash joins that appear in EXPLAIN plans as Parallel
Hash Join with Parallel Hash. While hash joins could already appear in
parallel queries, they were previously always parallel-oblivious and had a
partial subplan only on the outer side, meaning that the work of the inner
subplan was duplicated in every worker.
After this commit, the planner will consider using a partial subplan on the
inner side too, using the Parallel Hash node to divide the work over the
available CPU cores and combine its results in shared memory. If the join
needs to be split into multiple batches in order to respect work_mem, then
workers process different batches as much as possible and then work together
on the remaining batches.
The advantages of a parallel-aware hash join over a parallel-oblivious hash
join used in a parallel query are that it:
* avoids wasting memory on duplicated hash tables
* avoids wasting disk space on duplicated batch files
* divides the work of building the hash table over the CPUs
One disadvantage is that there is some communication between the participating
CPUs which might outweigh the benefits of parallelism in the case of small
hash tables. This is avoided by the planner's existing reluctance to supply
partial plans for small scans, but it may be necessary to estimate
synchronization costs in future if that situation changes. Another is that
outer batch 0 must be written to disk if multiple batches are required.
A potential future advantage of parallel-aware hash joins is that right and
full outer joins could be supported, since there is a single set of matched
bits for each hashtable, but that is not yet implemented.
A new GUC enable_parallel_hash is defined to control the feature, defaulting
to on.

Previously it was possible that a tuple was not pruned during vacuum,
even though its update xmax (i.e. the updating xid in a multixact with
both key share lockers and an updater) was below the cutoff horizon.
As the freezing code assumed, rightly so, that that's not supposed to
happen, xmax would be preserved (as a member of a new multixact or
xmax directly). That causes two problems: For one the tuple is below
the xmin horizon, which can cause problems if the clog is truncated or
once there's an xid wraparound. The bigger problem is that that will
break HOT chains, which in turn can lead two to breakages: First,
failing index lookups, which in turn can e.g lead to constraints being
violated. Second, future hot prunes / vacuums can end up making
invisible tuples visible again. There's other harmful scenarios.
Fix the problem by recognizing that tuples can be DEAD instead of
RECENTLY_DEAD, even if the multixactid has alive members, if the
update_xid is below the xmin horizon. That's safe because newer
versions of the tuple will contain the locking xids.
A followup commit will harden the code somewhat against future similar
bugs and already corrupted data.

Backpatch: 9.3-
The plpgsql.sql test file in the main regression tests is now by far the
largest after numeric_big, making editing and managing the test cases
very cumbersome. The other PLs have their own test suites split up into
smaller files by topic. It would be nice to have that for plpgsql as
well. So, to get that started, set up test infrastructure in
src/pl/plpgsql/src/ and split out the recently added procedure test
cases into a new file there. That file now mirrors the test cases added
to the other PLs, making managing those matching tests a bit easier too.

The test added by commit 390d58135 turns out to have different output
in CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS builds: there's an extra CONTEXT line in the
error message as a result of detecting the error at a different place.
Possibly we should do something to make that more consistent. But as
a stopgap measure to make the buildfarm green again, adjust the test
to suppress CONTEXT entirely. We can revert this if we do something
in the backend to eliminate the inconsistency.

If one exits and re-enters a DECLARE ... BEGIN ... END block within a
single execution of a plpgsql function, perhaps due to a surrounding loop,
the declared variables are supposed to get re-initialized to null (or
whatever their initializer is). But this failed to happen for variables
of type "record", because while exec_stmt_block() expected such variables
to be included in the block's initvarnos list, plpgsql_add_initdatums()
only adds DTYPE_VAR variables to that list. This bug appears to have
been there since the aboriginal addition of plpgsql to our tree.
Fix by teaching plpgsql_add_initdatums() to include DTYPE_REC variables
as well. (We don't need to consider other DTYPEs because they don't
represent separately-stored values.) I failed to resist the temptation
to make some nearby cosmetic adjustments, too.
No back-patch, because there have not been field complaints, and it
seems possible that somewhere out there someone has code depending
on the incorrect behavior. In any case this change would have no
impact on correctly-written code.

Bug: #14952
I suppose it is a copy-and-paste error that this test doesn't actually
test the "Parallel Append with both partial and non-partial subplans"
case (EXPLAIN alone surely doesn't qualify as a test of executor
behavior). Fix that.
Also, add cosmetic aliases to make it possible to tell apart these
otherwise-identical test cases in log_statement output.
When we create an Append node, we can spread out the workers over the
subplans instead of piling on to each subplan one at a time, which
should typically be a bit more efficient, both because the startup
cost of any plan executed entirely by one worker is paid only once and
also because of reduced contention. We can also construct Append
plans using a mix of partial and non-partial subplans, which may allow
for parallelism in places that otherwise couldn't support it.
Unfortunately, this patch doesn't handle the important case of
parallelizing UNION ALL by running each branch in a separate worker;
the executor infrastructure is added here, but more planner work is
needed.

If a hash join appears in a parallel query, there may be no hash table
available for explain.c to inspect even though a hash table may have
been built in other processes. This could happen either because
parallel_leader_participation was set to off or because the leader
happened to hit the end of the outer relation immediately (even though
the complete relation is not empty) and decided not to build the hash
table.
Commit bf11e7ee introduced a way for workers to exchange
instrumentation via the DSM segment for Sort nodes even though they
are not parallel-aware. This commit does the same for Hash nodes, so
that explain.c has a way to find instrumentation data from an
arbitrary participant that actually built the hash table.

Invoking the Makefile without an explicit target was building every
possible target instead of just the "all" target. Back-patch to 9.3
(all supported versions).
Previously, this function estimated the selectivity as 1 minus eqjoinsel()
for the negator equality operator, regardless of join type (I think there
was an expectation that eqjoinsel would handle the join type). But
actually this is completely wrong for semijoin cases: the fraction of the
LHS that has a non-matching row is not one minus the fraction of the LHS
that has a matching row. In reality a semijoin with <> will nearly always
succeed: it can only fail when the RHS is empty, or it contains a single
distinct value that is equal to the particular LHS value, or the LHS value
is null. The only one of those things we should have much confidence in
estimating is the fraction of LHS values that are null, so let's just take
the selectivity as 1 minus outer nullfrac.
Per coding convention, antijoin should be estimated the same as semijoin.
Arguably this is a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field complaints
and the risk of destabilizing plans, no back-patch.

Non-default range partitions have a constraint which include null
tests, and both default and non-default list partitions also have a
constraint which includes null tests, but for some reason this was
missed for default range partitions. This could cause the partition
constraint to evaluate to false for rows that were (correctly) routed

Doing this suppresses Coverity warnings and might allow improved
code in some cases. The prospects of that are not so bright as
to warrant back-patching, though.
Michael Paquier, per Coverity
When nodeValuesscan.c was written, it was impossible to have a SubPlan in
VALUES --- any sub-SELECT there would have to be uncorrelated and thereby
would produce an InitPlan instead. We therefore took a shortcut in the
logic that throws away a ValuesScan's per-row expression evaluation data
structures. This was broken by the introduction of LATERAL however; a
sub-SELECT containing a lateral reference produces a correlated SubPlan.
The cleanest fix for this would be to give up the optimization of
discarding the expression eval state. But that still seems pretty
unappetizing for long VALUES lists. It seems to work to just prevent
the subexpressions from hooking into the ValuesScan node's subPlan
list, so let's do that and see how well it works. (If this breaks,
due to additional connections between the subexpressions and the outer
query structures, we might consider compromises like throwing away data
only for VALUES rows not containing SubPlans.)
Per bug #14924 from Christian Duta. Back-patch to 9.3 where LATERAL
was introduced.

When strict aggregate combine functions, used in multi-stage/parallel

The equivalent code invoking normal transition functions has a check
for that situation, which did not get copied in a7de3dc5c3. Fix the
bug by adding the equivalent check.
Based on a quick look I could not find any strict combine functions in
core actually returning NULL, and it doesn't seem very likely external
users have done so. So this isn't likely to have caused issues in
practice.

This code evidently intended to treat backslash as an escape character
within double-quoted substrings, but it was sufficiently confused that
cases like ..."foo\\"... did not work right: the second backslash
managed to quote the double-quote after it, despite being quoted itself.
Rewrite to get that right, while preserving the existing behavior
outside double-quoted substrings, which is that backslash isn't special
except in the combination \".
Comparing to Oracle, it seems that their version of to_char() for
timestamps allows literal alphanumerics only within double quotes, while
non-alphanumerics are allowed outside quotes; backslashes aren't special
anywhere; there is no way at all to emit a literal double quote.
(Bizarrely, their to_char() for numbers is different; it doesn't allow
literal text at all AFAICT.) The fact that they don't treat backslash
as special justifies our existing behavior for backslash outside double
quotes. I considered making backslash inside double quotes act the same
way (ie, special only if before "), which in a green field would be a
more consistent behavior. But that would likely break more existing SQL
code than what this patch does.
Add some test cases illustrating this behavior. (Only the last new
case actually changes behavior in this commit.)
Little of this behavior was documented, either, so fix that.

Non-data template patterns would consume characters whether or not those
characters were what the pattern expected, for example
SELECT TO_NUMBER('1234', '9,999');
produced 134 because the '2' got eaten by the comma pattern. This seems
undesirable, not least because it doesn't happen in Oracle. For the ','
and 'G' template patterns, we can fix this by consuming characters only
if they match what the pattern would output. For non-data patterns such
as 'L' and 'TH', it seems impractical to tighten things up to the point of
consuming only exact matches to what the pattern would output; but we can
improve matters quite a lot by redefining the behavior as "consume only
characters that aren't digits, signs, decimal point, or comma".
Also, fix it so that the behavior is to consume the number of *characters*
the pattern would output, not the number of *bytes*. The old coding would
do surprising things with non-ASCII currency symbols, for example. (It
would be good to apply that rule for literal text as well, but this commit

It appears that proargmodes should always be set for variadic
functions, but satifies_hash_partition had it as NULL. In addition to
fixing the problem, add a regression test to guard against future
mistakes of this type.
If a PARAM_EXEC parameter is used below a Gather (Merge) but the InitPlan
that computes it is attached to or above the Gather (Merge), force the
value to be computed before starting parallelism and pass it down to all
workers. This allows us to use parallelism in cases where it previously
would have had to be rejected as unsafe. We do - in this case - lose the
optimization that the value is only computed if it's actually used. An
alternative strategy would be to have the first worker that needs the value
compute it, but one downside of that approach is that we'd then need to
select a parallel-safe path to compute the parameter value; it couldn't for
example contain a Gather (Merge) node. At some point in the future, we
might want to consider both approaches.
Independent of that consideration, there is a great deal more work that
could be done to make more kinds of PARAM_EXEC parameters parallel-safe.
This infrastructure could be used to allow a Gather (Merge) on the inner
side of a nested loop (although that's not a very appealing plan) and
cases where the InitPlan is attached below the Gather (Merge) could be
addressed as well using various techniques. But this is a good start.

Our initial work with int128 neglected alignment considerations, an
oversight that came back to bite us in bug #14897 from Vincent Lachenal.
It is unsurprising that int128 might have a 16-byte alignment requirement;
what's slightly more surprising is that even notoriously lax Intel chips
sometimes enforce that.
Raising MAXALIGN seems out of the question: the costs in wasted disk and
memory space would be significant, and there would also be an on-disk
compatibility break. Nor does it seem very practical to try to allow some
data structures to have more-than-MAXALIGN alignment requirement, as we'd
have to push knowledge of that throughout various code that copies data
structures around.
The only way out of the box is to make type int128 conform to the system's
alignment assumptions. Fortunately, gcc supports that via its
__attribute__(aligned()) pragma; and since we don't currently support
int128 on non-gcc-workalike compilers, we shouldn't be losing any platform
support this way.
Although we could have just done pg_attribute_aligned(MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF) and
called it a day, I did a little bit of extra work to make the code more
portable than that: it will also support int128 on compilers without
__attribute__(aligned()), if the native alignment of their 128-bit-int
type is no more than that of int64.
Add a regression test case that exercises the one known instance of the
problem, in parallel aggregation over a bigint column.

At present, we still depend on constraint exclusion for partitioning

If we don't have to return any columns from heap tuples, and there's
no need to recheck qual conditions, and the heap page is all-visible,
then we can skip fetching the heap page altogether.
Skip prefetching pages too, when possible, on the assumption that the
recheck flag will remain the same from one page to the next. While that
assumption is hardly bulletproof, it seems like a good bet most of the
time, and better than prefetching pages we don't need.

expandRTE() supposed that an RTE_SUBQUERY subquery must have exactly
as many non-junk tlist items as the RTE has column aliases for it.
This was true at the time the code was written, and is still true so
far as parse analysis is concerned --- but when the function is used
during planning, the subquery might have appeared through insertion
of a view that now has more columns than it did when the outer query
was parsed. This results in a core dump if, for instance, we have
to expand a whole-row Var that references the subquery.
To avoid crashing, we can either stop expanding the RTE when we run
out of aliases, or invent new aliases for the added columns. While
the latter might be more useful, the former is consistent with what
expandRTE() does for composite-returning functions in the RTE_FUNCTION
case, so it seems like we'd better do it that way.

On closer investigation, commits f3ea3e3e8 et al were a few bricks
shy of a load. What we need is not so much to lock down the result
type of a FieldSelect, as to lock down the existence of the column
it's trying to extract. Otherwise, we can break it by dropping that
column. The dependency on the result type is then held indirectly
through the column, and doesn't need to be recorded explicitly.
Out of paranoia, I left in the code to record a dependency on the
result type, but it's used only if we can't identify the pg_class OID
for the column. That shouldn't ever happen right now, AFAICS, but
it seems possible that in future the input node could be marked as
being of type RECORD rather than some specific composite type.
Likewise for FieldStore.
Like the previous patch, back-patch to all supported branches.

This is the last major omission in our domains feature: you can now
make a domain over anything that's not a pseudotype.
The major complication from an implementation standpoint is that places
that might be creating tuples of a domain type now need to be prepared
to apply domain_check(). It seems better that unprepared code fail
with an error like "<type> is not composite" than that it silently fail
to apply domain constraints. Therefore, relevant infrastructure like
get_func_result_type() and lookup_rowtype_tupdesc() has been adjusted
to treat domain-over-composite as a distinct case that unprepared code
won't recognize, rather than just transparently treating it the same
as plain composite. This isn't a 100% solution to the possibility of
overlooked domain checks, but it catches most places.
In passing, improve typcache.c's support for domains (it can now cache
the identity of a domain's base type), and rewrite the argument handling
logic in jsonfuncs.c's populate_record[set]_worker to reduce duplicative
per-call lookups.
I believe this is code-complete so far as the core and contrib code go.
The PLs need varying amounts of work, which will be tackled in followup
patches.

Previously, we skipped using search_indexed_tlist_for_sortgroupref()
if the tlist expression being sought in the child plan node was merely
a Var. This is purely an optimization, based on the theory that
search_indexed_tlist_for_var() is faster, and one copy of a Var should
be as good as another. However, the GROUPING SETS patch broke the
latter assumption: grouping columns containing the "same" Var can
sometimes have different outputs, as shown in the test case added here.
So do it the hard way whenever a ressortgroupref marking exists.
(If this seems like a bottleneck, we could imagine building a tlist index
data structure for ressortgroupref values, as we do for Vars. But I'll
let that idea go until there's some evidence it's worthwhile.)
Back-patch to 9.6. The problem also exists in 9.5 where GROUPING SETS
came in, but this patch is insufficient to resolve the problem in 9.5:
there is some obscure dependency on the upper-planner-pathification
work that happened in 9.6. Given that this is such a weird corner case,
and no end users have complained about it, it doesn't seem worth the work
to develop a fix for 9.5.

Although joinaliasvars lists coming out of the parser are quite simple,
those lists can contain arbitrarily complex expressions after subquery
pullup. We do not perform expression preprocessing on them, meaning that
expressions in those lists will not meet the expectations of later phases
of the planner (for example, that they do not contain SubLinks). This had
been thought pretty harmless, since we don't intentionally touch those
lists in later phases --- but Andreas Seltenreich found a case in which
adjust_appendrel_attrs() could recurse into a joinaliasvars list and then
die on its assertion that it never sees a SubLink. We considered a couple
of localized fixes to prevent that specific case from looking at the
joinaliasvars lists, but really this seems like a generic hazard for all
expression processing in the planner. Therefore, probably the best answer
is to delete the joinaliasvars lists from the parsetree at the end of
expression preprocessing, so that there are no reachable expressions that
haven't been through preprocessing.
The case Andreas found seems to be harmless in non-Assert builds, and so
far there are no field reports suggesting that there are user-visible
effects in other cases. I considered back-patching this anyway, but
it turns out that Andreas' test doesn't fail at all in 9.4-9.6, because
in those versions adjust_appendrel_attrs contains code (added in commit
842faa714 and removed again in commit 215b43cdc) to process SubLinks
rather than complain about them. Barring discovery of another path by
which unprocessed joinaliasvars lists can cause trouble, the most
prudent compromise seems to be to patch this into v10 but not further.
Patch by me, with thanks to Amit Langote for initial investigation

Like the similar logic for arrays and records, it's necessary to examine
the range's subtype to decide whether the range type can support hashing.
We can omit checking the subtype for btree-defined operations, though,
since range subtypes are required to have those operations. (Possibly
that simplification for btree cases led us to overlook that it does
not apply for hash cases.)
This is only an issue if the subtype lacks hash support, which is not
true of any built-in range type, but it's easy to demonstrate a problem
with a range type over, eg, money: you can get a "could not identify
a hash function" failure when the planner is misled into thinking that
hash join or aggregation would work.
This was born broken, so back-patch to all supported branches.
This is preparation for a future patch to extensively change how
reloptions work.

setTargetTable threw an error if the proposed target RangeVar's relname
matched any visible CTE or ENR. This breaks backwards compatibility in
the CTE case, since pre-v10 we never looked for a CTE here at all, so that
CTE names did not mask regular tables. It does seem like a good idea to
throw an error for the ENR case, though, thus causing ENRs to mask tables
for this purpose; ENRs are new in v10 so we're not breaking existing code,
and we may someday want to allow them to be the targets of DML.
To fix that, replace use of getRTEForSpecialRelationTypes, which was
overkill anyway, with use of scanNameSpaceForENR.
A second problem was that the check neglected to verify null schemaname,
so that a CTE or ENR could incorrectly be thought to match a qualified
RangeVar. That happened because getRTEForSpecialRelationTypes relied
on its caller to have checked for null schemaname. Even though the one
remaining caller got it right, this is obviously bug-prone, so move
the check inside getRTEForSpecialRelationTypes.
Also, revert commit 18ce3a4ab's extremely poorly thought out decision to
add a NULL return case to parserOpenTable --- without either documenting
that or adjusting any of the callers to check for it. The current bug
seems to have arisen in part due to working around that bad idea.

The built-in OSAs all share the same transition function, so they can
share transition state as long as the final functions cooperate to not
do the sort step more than once. To avoid running the tuplesort object
in randomAccess mode unnecessarily, add a bit of infrastructure to
nodeAgg.c to let the aggregate functions find out whether the transition
state is actually being shared or not.
This doesn't work for the hypothetical aggregates, since those inject
a hypothetical row that isn't traceable to the shared input state.
So they remain marked aggfinalmodify = 'w'.

This still gets the benefit of doing only one ExecProject in the

Up to now, there's been hard-wired assumptions that normal aggregates'
final functions never modify their transition states, while ordered-set
aggregates' final functions always do. This has always been a bit
limiting, and in particular it's getting in the way of improving the
built-in ordered-set aggregates to allow merging of transition states.
Therefore, let's introduce catalog and CREATE AGGREGATE infrastructure
that lets the finalfn's behavior be declared explicitly.
There are now three possibilities for the finalfn behavior: it's purely
read-only, it trashes the transition state irrecoverably, or it changes
the state in such a way that no more transfn calls are possible but the
state can still be passed to other, compatible finalfns. There are no
examples of this third case today, but we'll shortly make the built-in
OSAs act like that.
This change allows user-defined aggregates to explicitly disclaim support
for use as window functions, and/or to prevent transition state merging,
if their implementations cannot handle that. While it was previously
possible to handle the window case with a run-time error check, there was
not any way to prevent transition state merging, which in retrospect is
something commit 804163bc2 should have provided for. But better late
than never.
In passing, split out pg_aggregate.c's extern function declarations into
a new header file pg_aggregate_fn.h, similarly to what we've done for
some other catalog headers, so that pg_aggregate.h itself can be safe
for frontend files to include. This lets pg_dump use the symbolic
names for relevant constants.

This ought to work, but the built-in OSAs are not capable of coping,
because their final-functions destructively modify their transition
state (specifically, the contained tuplesort object). That was fine
when those functions were written, but commit 804163bc2 moved the
goalposts without telling orderedsetaggs.c.
We should fix the built-in OSAs to support this, but it will take
a little work, especially if we don't want to sacrifice performance
in the normal non-shared-state case. Given that it took a year after
9.6 release for anyone to notice this bug, we should not prioritize
sharable-state over nonsharable-state performance. And a proper fix
is likely to be more complicated than we'd want to back-patch, too.
Therefore, let's just put in this stop-gap patch to prevent nodeAgg.c

I noticed the tmp_check subdirectory wasn't getting cleaned up

Makefile that does not set that is snapshot_too_old, and it
does it like this.
If the operator is a strict btree equality operator, and X isn't volatile,
then the clause must yield true for any non-null value of X, or null if X
is null. At top level of a WHERE clause, we can ignore the distinction
between false and null results, so it's valid to simplify the clause to
"X IS NOT NULL". This is a useful improvement mainly because we'll get
a far better selectivity estimate in most cases.
Because such cases seldom arise in well-written queries, it is unappetizing
to expend a lot of planner cycles looking for them ... but it turns out
that there's a place we can shoehorn this in practically for free, because
equivclass.c already has to detect and reject candidate equivalences of the
form X = X. That doesn't catch every place that it would be valid to
simplify to X IS NOT NULL, but it catches the typical case. Working harder
doesn't seem justified.

Instead of joining two partitioned tables in their entirety we can, if
it is an equi-join on the partition keys, join the matching partitions
individually. This involves teaching the planner about "other join"
rels, which are related to regular join rels in the same way that
other member rels are related to baserels. This can use significantly
more CPU time and memory than regular join planning, because there may
now be a set of "other" rels not only for every base relation but also
for every join relation. In most practical cases, this probably
shouldn't be a problem, because (1) it's probably unusual to join many
tables each with many partitions using the partition keys for all
joins and (2) if you do that scenario then you probably have a big
enough machine to handle the increased memory cost of planning and (3)
the resulting plan is highly likely to be better, so what you spend in
planning you'll make up on the execution side. All the same, for now,
turn this feature off by default.
Currently, we can only perform joins between two tables whose
partitioning schemes are absolutely identical. It would be nice to
cope with other scenarios, such as extra partitions on one side or the
other with no match on the other side, but that will have to wait for
a future patch.

Allowing arrays with a domain type as their element type was left un-done
in the original domain patch, but not for any very good reason. This
omission leads to such surprising results as array_agg() not working on
a domain column, because the parser can't identify a suitable output type
for the polymorphic aggregate.
In order to fix this, first clean up the APIs of coerce_to_domain() and
some internal functions in parse_coerce.c so that we consistently pass
around a CoercionContext along with CoercionForm. Previously, we sometimes
passed an "isExplicit" boolean flag instead, which is strictly less
information; and coerce_to_domain() didn't even get that, but instead had
to reverse-engineer isExplicit from CoercionForm. That's contrary to the
documentation in primnodes.h that says that CoercionForm only affects
display and not semantics. I don't think this change fixes any live bugs,
but it makes things more consistent. The main reason for doing it though
is that now build_coercion_expression() receives ccontext, which it needs
in order to be able to recursively invoke coerce_to_target_type().
Next, reimplement ArrayCoerceExpr so that the node does not directly know
any details of what has to be done to the individual array elements while
performing the array coercion. Instead, the per-element processing is
represented by a sub-expression whose input is a source array element and
whose output is a target array element. This simplifies life in
parse_coerce.c, because it can build that sub-expression by a recursive
invocation of coerce_to_target_type(). The executor now handles the
per-element processing as a compiled expression instead of hard-wired code.
The main advantage of this is that we can use a single ArrayCoerceExpr to
handle as many as three successive steps per element: base type conversion,
typmod coercion, and domain constraint checking. The old code used two
stacked ArrayCoerceExprs to handle type + typmod coercion, which was pretty
inefficient, and adding yet another array deconstruction to do domain
constraint checking seemed very unappetizing.
In the case where we just need a single, very simple coercion function,
doing this straightforwardly leads to a noticeable increase in the
per-array-element runtime cost. Hence, add an additional shortcut evalfunc
in execExprInterp.c that skips unnecessary overhead for that specific form
of expression. The runtime speed of simple cases is within 1% or so of
where it was before, while cases that previously required two levels of
array processing are significantly faster.
Finally, create an implicit array type for every domain type, as we do for
base types, enums, etc. Everything except the array-coercion case seems
to just work without further effort.

Vacuum calls page-level HOT prune to remove dead HOT tuples before doing
liveness checks (HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum) on the remaining tuples. But
concurrent transaction commit/abort may turn DEAD some of the HOT tuples
that survived the prune, before HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum tests them.
This happens to activate the code that decides to freeze the tuple ...
which resuscitates it, duplicating data.
(This is especially bad if there's any unique constraints, because those
are now internally violated due to the duplicate entries, though you
won't know until you try to REINDEX or dump/restore the table.)
One possible fix would be to simply skip doing anything to the tuple,
and hope that the next HOT prune would remove it. But there is a
problem: if the tuple is older than freeze horizon, this would leave an
unfrozen XID behind, and if no HOT prune happens to clean it up before
the containing pg_clog segment is truncated away, it'd later cause an
error when the XID is looked up.
Fix the problem by having the tuple freezing routines cope with the
situation: don't freeze the tuple (and keep it dead). In the cases that
the XID is older than the freeze age, set the HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED flag
so that there is no need to look up the XID in pg_clog later on.

that the input is an IEEE infinity. The results depended on the
platform-specific behavior of sprintf(): on most platforms you'd get

deliver a finite value (typically 1), due to a nonstandard output format

Since our numeric type lacks the concept of infinity, a suitable conversion
is impossible; the best thing to do is throw an explicit error before
letting sprintf do its thing.
