689f75d6eb Fix limitations on what SQL commands can be issued to a walsender.
In logical replication mode, a WalSender is supposed to be able
to execute any regular SQL command, as well as the special
replication commands.  Poor design of the replication-command
parser caused it to fail in various cases, notably:

* semicolons embedded in a command, or multiple SQL commands
sent in a single message;

* dollar-quoted literals containing odd numbers of single
or double quote marks;

* commands starting with a comment.

The basic problem here is that we're trying to run repl_scanner.l
across the entire input string even when it's not a replication
command.  Since repl_scanner.l does not understand all of the
token types known to the core lexer, this is doomed to have
failure modes.

We certainly don't want to make repl_scanner.l as big as scan.l,
so instead rejigger stuff so that we only lex the first token of
a non-replication command.  That will usually look like an IDENT
to repl_scanner.l, though a comment would end up getting reported
as a '-' or '/' single-character token.  If the token is a replication
command keyword, we push it back and proceed normally with repl_gram.y
parsing.  Otherwise, we can drop out of exec_replication_command()
without examining the rest of the string.

(It's still theoretically possible for repl_scanner.l to fail on
the first token; but that could only happen if it's an unterminated
single- or double-quoted string, in which case you'd have gotten
largely the same error from the core lexer too.)

In this way, repl_gram.y isn't involved at all in handling general
SQL commands, so we can get rid of the SQLCmd node type.  (In
the back branches, we can't remove it because renumbering enum
NodeTag would be an ABI break; so just leave it sit there unused.)

I failed to resist the temptation to clean up some other sloppy
coding in repl_scanner.l while at it.  The only externally-visible
behavior change from that is it now accepts \r and \f as whitespace,
same as the core lexer.

Per bug #17379 from Greg Rychlewski.  Back-patch to all supported
branches.

a8ce5c8d78 Remember to reset yy_start state when firing up repl_scanner.l.
Without this, we get odd behavior when the previous cycle of
lexing exited in a non-default exclusive state.  Every other
copy of this code is aware that it has to do BEGIN(INITIAL),
but repl_scanner.l did not get that memo.

The real-world impact of this is probably limited, since most
replication clients would abandon their connection after getting
a syntax error.  Still, it's a bug.

This mistake is old, so back-patch to all supported branches.

68cc72d4d5 Suppress variable-set-but-not-used warning from clang 13.
In the normal configuration where GEQO_DEBUG isn't defined,
recent clang versions have started to complain that geqo_main.c
accumulates the edge_failures count but never does anything
with it.  As a minimal back-patchable fix, insert a void cast
to silence this warning.  (I'd speculated about ripping out the
GEQO_DEBUG logic altogether, but I don't think we'd wish to
back-patch that.)

Per recently-established project policy, this is a candidate
for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses
an annoying compiler warning but changes no behavior.  Hence,
back-patch all the way to 9.2.

93854d5b1b Correct type of front_pathkey to PathKey
In sort_inner_and_outer we iterate a list of PathKey elements, but the
variable is declared as (List *). This mistake is benign, because we
only pass the pointer to lcons() and never dereference it.

This exists since ~2004, but it's confusing. So fix and backpatch to all
supported branches.

e2d53c8767 Flush table's relcache during ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY USING INDEX.
Previously, unless we had to add a NOT NULL constraint to the column,
this command resulted in updating only the index's relcache entry.
That's problematic when replication behavior is being driven off the
existence of a primary key: other sessions (and ours too for that
matter) failed to recalculate their opinion of whether the table can
be replicated.  Add a relcache invalidation to fix it.

This has been broken since pg_class.relhaspkey was removed in v11.
Before that, updating the table's relhaspkey value sufficed to cause
a cache flush.  Hence, backpatch to v11.

5521d8139f Fix race condition in gettext() initialization in libpq and ecpglib.
In libpq and ecpglib, multiple threads can concurrently enter the
initialization logic for message localization.  Since we set the
its-done flag before actually doing the work, it'd be possible
for some threads to reach gettext() before anyone has called
bindtextdomain().  Barring bugs in libintl itself, this would not
result in anything worse than failure to localize some early
messages.  Nonetheless, it's a bug, and an easy one to fix.

Noted while investigating bug #17299 from Clemens Zeidler
(much thanks to Liam Bowen for followup investigation on that).
It currently appears that that actually *is* a bug in libintl itself,
but that doesn't let us off the hook for this bit.

1c0452c48c Fix one-off bug causing missing commit timestamps for subtransactions
The logic in charge of writing commit timestamps (enabled with
track_commit_timestamp) for subtransactions had a one-bug bug,
where it would be possible that commit timestamps go missing for the
last subtransaction committed.

While on it, simplify a bit the iteration logic in the loop writing the
commit timestamps, as per suggestions from Kyotaro Horiguchi and Tom
Lane, so as some variable initializations are not part of the loop
itself.

Issue introduced in 73c986a.

f0b0b1ddb5 Tighten TAP tests' tracking of postmaster state some more.
Commits 6c4a8903b et al. had a couple of deficiencies:

* The logic I added to Cluster::start to see if a PID file is present
could be fooled by a stale PID file left over from a previous
postmaster.  To fix, if we're not sure whether we expect to find a
running postmaster or not, validate the PID using "kill 0".

* 017_shm.pl has a loop in which it just issues repeated Cluster::start
calls; this will fail if some invocation fails but leaves self->_pid
set.  Per buildfarm results, the above fix is not enough to make this
safe: we might have "validated" a PID for a postmaster that exits
immediately after we look.  Hence, match each failed start call with
a stop call that will get us back to the self->_pid == undef state.
Add a fail_ok option to Cluster::stop to make this work.

"pg_ctl start" might start a new postmaster and then return failure
anyway, for example if PGCTLTIMEOUT is exceeded.  If there is a

6d1a854c15 Avoid calling gettext() in signal handlers.
It seems highly unlikely that gettext() can be relied on to be
async-signal-safe.  psql used to understand that, but someone got
it wrong long ago in the src/bin/scripts/ version of handle_sigint,
and then the bad idea was perpetuated when those two versions were
unified into src/fe_utils/cancel.c.

I'm unsure why there have not been field complaints about this
... maybe gettext() is signal-safe once it's translated at least
one message?  But we have no business assuming any such thing.

In cancel.c (v13 and up), I preserved our ability to localize
"Cancel request sent" messages by invoking gettext() before
the signal handler is set up.  In earlier branches I just made
src/bin/scripts/ not localize those messages, as psql did then.

(Just for extra unsafety, the src/bin/scripts/ version was
invoking fprintf() from a signal handler.  Sigh.)

Noted while fixing signal-safety issues in PQcancel() itself.

38f099ef93 Avoid calling strerror[_r] in PQcancel().
PQcancel() is supposed to be safe to call from a signal handler,
and indeed psql uses it that way.  All of the library functions
it uses are specified to be async-signal-safe by POSIX ...
except for strerror.  Neither plain strerror nor strerror_r
are considered safe.  When this code was written, back in the
dark ages, we probably figured "oh, strerror will just index
into a constant array of strings" ... but in any locale except C,
that's unlikely to be true.  Probably the reason we've not heard
complaints is that (a) this error-handling code is unlikely to be
reached in normal use, and (b) in many scenarios, localized error
strings would already have been loaded, after which maybe it's
safe to call strerror here.  Still, this is clearly unacceptable.

The best we can do without relying on strerror is to print the
decimal value of errno, so make it do that instead.  (This is
probably not much loss of user-friendliness, given that it is
hard to get a failure here.)

9d1bcf5dc1 Build inherited extended stats on partitioned tables
Commit 859b3003de disabled building of extended stats for inheritance
trees, to prevent updating the same catalog row twice. While that
resolved the issue, it also means there are no extended stats for
declaratively partitioned tables, because there are no data in the
non-leaf relations.

That also means declaratively partitioned tables were not affected by
the issue 859b3003de addressed, which means this is a regression
affecting queries that calculate estimates for the whole inheritance
tree as a whole (which includes e.g. GROUP BY queries).

But because partitioned tables are empty, we can invert the condition
and build statistics only for the case with inheritance, without losing
anything. And we can consider them when calculating estimates.

It may be necessary to run ANALYZE on partitioned tables, to collect
proper statistics. For declarative partitioning there should no prior
statistics, and it might take time before autoanalyze is triggered. For
tables partitioned by inheritance the statistics may include data from
child relations (if built 859b3003de), contradicting the current code.

76569ad6f4 Ignore extended statistics for inheritance trees
Since commit 859b3003de we only build extended statistics for individual
relations, ignoring the child relations. This resolved the issue with
updating catalog tuple twice, but we still tried to use the statistics
when calculating estimates for the whole inheritance tree. When the
relations contain very distinct data, it may produce bogus estimates.

This is roughly the same issue 427c6b5b9 addressed ~15 years ago, and we
fix it the same way - by ignoring extended statistics when calculating
estimates for the inheritance tree as a whole. We still consider
extended statistics when calculating estimates for individual child
relations, of course.

This may result in plan changes due to different estimates, but if the
old statistics were not describing the inheritance tree particularly
well it's quite likely the new plans is actually better.

45a3cefad6 Fix ruleutils.c's dumping of whole-row Vars in more contexts.
Commit 7745bc352 intended to ensure that whole-row Vars would be
printed with "::type" decoration in all contexts where plain
"var.*" notation would result in star-expansion, notably in
ROW() and VALUES() constructs.  However, it missed the case of
INSERT with a single-row VALUES, as reported by Timur Khanjanov.

Nosing around ruleutils.c, I found a second oversight: the
code for RowCompareExpr generates ROW() notation without benefit
of an actual RowExpr, and naturally it wasn't in sync :-(.
(The code for FieldStore also does this, but we don't expect that
to generate strictly parsable SQL anyway, so I left it alone.)

3a69d45afc Fix results of index-only scans on btree_gist char(N) indexes.
If contrib/btree_gist is used to make a GIST index on a char(N)
(bpchar) column, and that column is retrieved via an index-only
scan, what came out had all trailing spaces removed.  Since
that doesn't happen in any other kind of table scan, this is
clearly a bug.  The cause is that gbt_bpchar_compress() strips
trailing spaces (using rtrim1) before a new index entry is made.
That was probably a good idea when this code was first written,
but since we invented index-only scans, it's not so good.

One answer could be to mark this opclass as incapable of index-only
scans.  But to do so, we'd need an extension module version bump,
followed by manual action by DBAs to install the updated version
of btree_gist.  And it's not really a desirable place to end up,
anyway.

Instead, let's fix the code by removing the unwanted space-stripping
action and adjusting the opclass's comparison logic to ignore
trailing spaces as bpchar normally does.  This will not hinder
cases that work today, since index searches with this logic will
act the same whether trailing spaces are stored or not.  It will
not by itself fix the problem of getting space-stripped results
from index-only scans, of course.  Users who care about that can
REINDEX affected indexes after installing this update, to immediately
replace all improperly-truncated index entries.  Otherwise, it can
be expected that the index's behavior will change incrementally as
old entries are replaced by new ones.

9c4f389084 Fix index-only scan plans, take 2.
Commit 4ace45677 failed to fix the problem fully, because the
same issue of attempting to fetch a non-returnable index column
can occur when rechecking the indexqual after using a lossy index
operator.  Moreover, it broke EXPLAIN for such indexquals (which
indicates a gap in our test cases :-().

Revert the code changes of 4ace45677 in favor of adding a new field
to struct IndexOnlyScan, containing a version of the indexqual that
can be executed against the index-returned tuple without using any
non-returnable columns.  (The restrictions imposed by check_index_only
guarantee this is possible, although we may have to recompute indexed
expressions.)  Support construction of that during setrefs.c
processing by marking IndexOnlyScan.indextlist entries as resjunk
if they can't be returned, rather than removing them entirely.
(We could alternatively require setrefs.c to look up the IndexOptInfo
again, but abusing resjunk this way seems like a reasonably safe way
to avoid needing to do that.)

This solution isn't great from an API-stability standpoint: if there
are any extensions out there that build IndexOnlyScan structs directly,
they'll be broken in the next minor releases.  However, only a very
invasive extension would be likely to do such a thing.  There's no
change in the Path representation, so typical planner extensions
shouldn't have a problem.

As before, back-patch to all supported branches.

f789b7732e Fix index-only scan plans when not all index columns can be returned.
If an index has both returnable and non-returnable columns, and one of
the non-returnable columns is an expression using a Var that is in a
returnable column, then a query returning that expression could result
in an index-only scan plan that attempts to read the non-returnable
column, instead of recomputing the expression from the returnable
column as intended.

To fix, redefine the "indextlist" list of an IndexOnlyScan plan node
as containing null Consts in place of any non-returnable columns.
This solves the problem by preventing setrefs.c from falsely matching
to such entries.  The executor is happy since it only cares about the
exposed types of the entries, and ruleutils.c doesn't care because a
correct plan won't reference those entries.  I considered some other
ways to prevent setrefs.c from doing the wrong thing, but this way
seems good since (a) it allows a very localized fix, (b) it makes
the indextlist structure more compact in many cases, and (c) the
indextlist is now a more faithful representation of what the index AM
will actually produce, viz. nulls for any non-returnable columns.

This is easier to hit since we introduced included columns, but it's
possible to construct failing examples without that, as per the
added regression test.  Hence, back-patch to all supported branches.

Per bug #17350 from Louis Jachiet.

Avoid the name "test".  In the 10 branch, this could clash with

861095a409 Correct comment and some documentation about REPLICA_IDENTITY_INDEX
catalog/pg_class.h was stating that REPLICA_IDENTITY_INDEX with a
dropped index is equivalent to REPLICA_IDENTITY_DEFAULT.  The code tells
a different story, as it is equivalent to REPLICA_IDENTITY_NOTHING.

The behavior exists since the introduction of replica identities, and
fe7fd4e even added tests for this case but I somewhat forgot to fix this
comment.

While on it, this commit reorganizes the documentation about replica
identities on the ALTER TABLE page, and a note is added about the case
of dropped indexes with REPLICA_IDENTITY_INDEX.

e1fd61c8ce Ensure casting to typmod -1 generates a RelabelType.
Fix the code changed by commit 5c056b0c2 so that we always generate
RelabelType, not something else, for a cast to unspecified typmod.
Otherwise planner optimizations might not happen.

It appears we missed this point because the previous experiments were
done on type numeric: the parser undesirably generates a call on the
numeric() length-coercion function, but then numeric_support()
optimizes that down to a RelabelType, so that everything seems fine.
It misbehaves for types that have a non-optimized length coercion
function, such as bpchar.

Per report from John Naylor.  Back-patch to all supported branches,
as the previous patch eventually was.  Unfortunately, that no longer
includes 9.6 ... we really shouldn't put this type of change into a
nearly-EOL branch.

f04aa65daf Adjust behavior of some env settings for the TAP tests of MSVC
edc2332 has introduced in vcregress.pl some control on the environment
variables LZ4, TAR and GZIP_PROGRAM to allow any TAP tests to be able
use those commands.  This makes the settings more consistent with
src/Makefile.global.in, as the same default gets used for Make and MSVC
builds.

Each parameter can be changed in buildenv.pl, but as a default gets
assigned after loading buldenv.pl, it is not possible to unset any of
these, and using an empty value would not work with "||=" either.  As
some environments may not have a compatible command in their PATH (tar
coming from MinGW is an issue, for one), this could break tests without
an exit path to bypass any failing test.  This commit changes things so
as the default values for LZ4, TAR and GZIP_PROGRAM are assigned before
loading buildenv.pl, not after.  This way, we keep the same amount of
compatibility as a GNU build with the same defaults, and it becomes
possible to unset any of those values.

While on it, this adds some documentation about those three variables in
the section dedicated to the TAP tests for MSVC.

Per discussion with Andrew Dunstan.

65af1e8422 Remove assertion for replication origins in PREPARE TRANSACTION
When using replication origins, pg_replication_origin_xact_setup() is an
optional choice to be able to set a LSN and a timestamp to mark the
origin, which would be additionally added to WAL for transaction commits
or aborts (including 2PC transactions).  An assertion in the code path
of PREPARE TRANSACTION assumed that this data should always be set, so
it would trigger when using replication origins without setting up an
origin LSN.  Some tests are added to cover more this kind of scenario.

a5fe66bfda isolationtester: append session name to application_name.
When writing / debugging an isolation test it sometimes is useful to see which
session holds what lock etc. To make it easier, both as part of spec files and
interactively, append the session name to application_name. Since b1907d688
application_name already contains the test name, this appends the session's
name to that.

insert-conflict-specconflict did something like this manually, which can now
be removed.

As we have done lately with other test infrastructure improvements, backpatch
this change, to make it easier to backpatch tests.

5ed74d874f Fix corruption of toast indexes with REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
REINDEX CONCURRENTLY run on a toast index or a toast relation could
corrupt the target indexes rebuilt, as a backend running in parallel
that manipulates toast values would directly release the lock on the
toast relation when its local operation is done, rather than releasing
the lock once the transaction that manipulated the toast values
committed.

The fix done here is simple: we now hold a ROW EXCLUSIVE lock on the
toast relation when saving or deleting a toast value until the
transaction working on them is committed, so as a concurrent reindex
happening in parallel would be able to wait for any activity and see any
new rows inserted (or deleted).

An isolation test is added to check after the case fixed here, which is
a bit fancy by design as it relies on allow_system_table_mods to rename
the toast table and its index to fixed names.  This way, it is possible
to reindex them directly without any dependency on the OID of the
underlying relation.  Note that this could not use a DO block either, as
REINDEX CONCURRENTLY cannot be run in a transaction block.  The test is
backpatched down to 13, where it is possible, thanks to c4a7a39, to use
allow_system_table_mods in a test suite.

21a86b0eba postgres_fdw: Fix unexpected reporting of empty message.
pgfdw_report_error() in postgres_fdw gets a message from PGresult or
PGconn to report an error received from a remote server. Previously
if it could get a message from neither of them, it reported empty
message unexpectedly. The cause of this issue was that pgfdw_report_error()
didn't handle properly the case where no message could be obtained
and its local variable message_primary was set to '\0'.

This commit improves pgfdw_report_error() so that it reports the message
"could not obtain ..." when it gets no message and message_primary
is set to '\0'. This is the same behavior as when message_primary is NULL.

dblink_res_error() in dblink has the same issue, so this commit also
improves it in the same way.

It turns out that this is necessary to keep Winsock from dropping any

to argue with experimental results.

b6e525648d Move into separate file all the SQL queries used in pg_upgrade tests
The existing pg_upgrade/test.sh and the buildfarm code have been holding
the same set of SQL queries when doing cross-version upgrade tests to
adapt the objects created by the regression tests before the upgrade
(mostly, incompatible or non-existing objects need to be dropped from
the origin, perhaps re-created).

This moves all those SQL queries into a new, separate, file with a set
of \if clauses to handle the version checks depending on the old version
of the cluster to-be-upgraded.

The long-term plan is to make the buildfarm code re-use this new SQL
file, so as committers are able to fix any compatibility issues in the
tests of pg_upgrade with a refresh of the core code, without having to
poke at the buildfarm client.  Note that this is only able to handle the
main regression test suite, and that nothing is done yet for contrib
modules yet (these have more issues like their database names).

A backpatch down to 10 is done, adapting the version checks as this
script needs to be only backward-compatible, so as it becomes possible
to clean up a maximum amount of code within the buildfarm client.

5cf08b4db7 Avoid leaking memory during large-scale REASSIGN OWNED BY operations.
The various ALTER OWNER routines tend to leak memory in
CurrentMemoryContext.  That's not a problem when they're only called
once per command; but in this usage where we might be touching many
objects, it can amount to a serious memory leak.  Fix that by running
each call in a short-lived context.

(DROP OWNED BY likely has a similar issue, except that you'll probably
run out of lock table space before noticing.  REASSIGN is worth fixing
since for most non-table object types, it won't take any lock.)

Back-patch to all supported branches.  Unfortunately, in the back
branches this helps to only a limited extent, since the sinval message
queue bloats quite a lot in this usage before commit 3aafc030a,
consuming memory more or less comparable to what's actually leaked.
Still, it's clearly a leak with a simple fix, so we might as well fix it.
