5864d24609 Error out in pg_verify_checksums on incompatible block size
pg_verify_checksums is compiled with a given block size and has a hard
dependency to it per the way checksums are calculated via
checksum_impl.h, and trying to use the tool on a data folder which has
not the same block size would result in incorrect checksum calculations
and/or block read errors, meaning that the data folder is corrupted.
This is harmless as checksums are only checked now, but very confusing
for the user so issue an error properly if the block size used at
compilation and the block size used in the data folder do not match.

a1e9508b96 Fix volatile vs. pointer confusion
Variables used after a longjmp() need to be declared volatile.  In
case of a pointer, it's the pointer itself that needs to be declared
volatile, not the pointed-to value.  So we need

    PyObject *volatile items;

instead of

    volatile PyObject *items;  /* wrong */

5b866005c8 Ensure dummy paths have correct required_outer if rel is parameterized.
The assertions added by commits 34ea1ab7f et al found another problem:
set_dummy_rel_pathlist and mark_dummy_rel were failing to label
the dummy paths they create with the correct outer_relids, in case
the relation is necessarily parameterized due to having lateral
references in its tlist.  It's likely that this has no user-visible
consequences in production builds, at the moment; but still an assertion
failure is a bad thing, so back-patch the fix.

Per bug #15694 from Roman Zharkov (via Alexander Lakhin)
and an independent report by Tushar Ahuja.

da45300486 Fix thinko when bumping on temporary directories in pg_verify_checksums
This fixes an oversight from 5c99513.  This has no actual consequence as
PG_TEMP_FILE_PREFIX and PG_TEMP_FILES_DIR have the same value so when
bumping on a temporary path the directory scan was still moving on to
the next entry instead of skipping the rest of the scan, but let's keep
the logic correct.

bc2232f2f5 Disallow NaN as a value for floating-point GUCs.
None of the code that uses GUC values is really prepared for them to
hold NaN, but parse_real() didn't have any defense against accepting
such a value.  Treat it the same as a syntax error.

I haven't attempted to analyze the exact consequences of setting any
of the float GUCs to NaN, but since they're quite unlikely to be good,
this seems like a back-patchable bug fix.

Note: we don't need an explicit test for +-Infinity because those will
be rejected by existing range checks.  I added a regression test for
that in HEAD, but not older branches because the spelling of the value
in the error message will be platform-dependent in branches where we
don't always use port/snprintf.c.

925f46ffb8 Fix handling of targetlist SRFs when scan/join relation is known empty.
When we introduced separate ProjectSetPath nodes for application of
set-returning functions in v10, we inadvertently broke some cases where
we're supposed to recognize that the result of a subquery is known to be
empty (contain zero rows).  That's because IS_DUMMY_REL was just looking
for a childless AppendPath without allowing for a ProjectSetPath being
possibly stuck on top.  In itself, this didn't do anything much worse
than produce slightly worse plans for some corner cases.

Then in v11, commit 11cf92f6e rearranged things to allow the scan/join
targetlist to be applied directly to partial paths before they get
gathered.  But it inserted a short-circuit path for dummy relations
that was a little too short: it failed to insert a ProjectSetPath node
at all for a targetlist containing set-returning functions, resulting in
bogus "set-valued function called in context that cannot accept a set"
errors, as reported in bug #15669 from Madelaine Thibaut.

The best way to fix this mess seems to be to reimplement IS_DUMMY_REL
so that it drills down through any ProjectSetPath nodes that might be
there (and it seems like we'd better allow for ProjectionPath as well).

While we're at it, make it look at rel->pathlist not cheapest_total_path,
so that it gives the right answer independently of whether set_cheapest
has been done lately.  That dependency looks pretty shaky in the context
of code like apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths, and even if it's not broken
today it'd certainly bite us at some point.  (Nastily, unsafe use of the
old coding would almost always work; the hazard comes down to possibly
looking through a dangling pointer, and only once in a blue moon would
you find something there that resulted in the wrong answer.)

It now looks like it was a mistake for IS_DUMMY_REL to be a macro: if
there are any extensions using it, they'll continue to use the old
inadequate logic until they're recompiled, after which they'll fail
to load into server versions predating this fix.  Hopefully there are
few such extensions.

Having fixed IS_DUMMY_REL, the special path for dummy rels in
apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths is unnecessary as well as being wrong,
so we can just drop it.

Also change a few places that were testing for partitioned-ness of a
planner relation but not using IS_PARTITIONED_REL for the purpose; that
seems unsafe as well as inconsistent, plus it required an ugly hack in
apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths.

In passing, save a few cycles in apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths by
skipping processing of pre-existing paths for partitioned rels,
and do some cosmetic cleanup and comment adjustment in that function.

I renamed IS_DUMMY_PATH to IS_DUMMY_APPEND with the intention of breaking
any code that might be using it, since in almost every case that would
be wrong; IS_DUMMY_REL is what to be using instead.

In HEAD, also make set_dummy_rel_pathlist static (since it's no longer
used from outside allpaths.c), and delete is_dummy_plan, since it's no
longer used anywhere.

Back-patch as appropriate into v11 and v10.

8722c4dacc Fix error handling of readdir() port implementation on first file lookup
The implementation of readdir() in src/port/ which gets used by MSVC has
been added in 399a36a, and since the beginning it considers all errors
on the first file lookup as ENOENT, setting errno accordingly and
letting the routine caller think that the directory is empty.  While
this is normally enough for the case of the backend, this can confuse
callers of this routine on Windows as all errors would map to the same
behavior.  So, for example, even permission errors would be thought as
having an empty directory, while there could be contents in it.

This commit changes the error handling so as readdir() gets a behavior
similar to native implementations: force errno=0 when seeing
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND as error and consider other errors as plain
failures.

While looking at the patch, I noticed that MinGW does not enforce
errno=0 when looking at the first file, but it gets enforced on the next
file lookups.  A comment related to that was incorrect in the code.

6ccb973373 Further fixing for multi-row VALUES lists for updatable views.
Previously, rewriteTargetListIU() generated a list of attribute
numbers from the targetlist, which were passed to rewriteValuesRTE(),
which expected them to contain the same number of entries as there are
columns in the VALUES RTE, and to be in the same order. That was fine
when the target relation was a table, but for an updatable view it
could be broken in at least three different ways ---
rewriteTargetListIU() could insert additional targetlist entries for
view columns with defaults, the view columns could be in a different
order from the columns of the underlying base relation, and targetlist
entries could be merged together when assigning to elements of an
array or composite type. As a result, when recursing to the base
relation, the list of attribute numbers generated from the rewritten
targetlist could no longer be relied upon to match the columns of the
VALUES RTE. We got away with that prior to 41531e42d3 because it used
to always be the case that rewriteValuesRTE() did nothing for the
underlying base relation, since all DEFAULTS had already been replaced
when it was initially invoked for the view, but that was incorrect
because it failed to apply defaults from the base relation.

Fix this by examining the targetlist entries more carefully and
picking out just those that are simple Vars referencing the VALUES
RTE. That's sufficient for the purposes of rewriteValuesRTE(), which
is only responsible for dealing with DEFAULT items in the VALUES
RTE. Any DEFAULT item in the VALUES RTE that doesn't have a matching
simple-Var-assignment in the targetlist is an error which we complain
about, but in theory that ought to be impossible.

Additionally, move this code into rewriteValuesRTE() to give a clearer
separation of concerns between the 2 functions. There is no need for
rewriteTargetListIU() to know about the details of the VALUES RTE.

While at it, fix the comment for rewriteValuesRTE() which claimed that
it doesn't support array element and field assignments --- that hasn't
been true since a3c7a993d5 (9.6 and later).

Back-patch to all supported versions, with minor differences for the
pre-9.6 branches, which don't support array element and field
assignments to the same column in multi-row VALUES lists.

d9bba27c8b Fix SCRAM authentication via SSL when mixing versions of OpenSSL
When using a libpq client linked with OpenSSL 1.0.1 or older to connect
to a backend linked with OpenSSL 1.0.2 or newer, the server would send
SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS and SCRAM-SHA-256 as valid mechanisms for the SASL
exchange, and the client would choose SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS even if it does
not support channel binding, leading to a confusing error.  In this
case, what the client ought to do is switch to SCRAM-SHA-256 so as the
authentication can move on and succeed.

So for a SCRAM authentication over SSL, here are all the cases present
and how we deal with them using libpq:
1) Server supports channel binding, it sends SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS and
SCRAM-SHA-256 as allowed mechanisms.
1-1) Client supports channel binding, chooses SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS.
1-2) Client does not support channel binding, chooses SCRAM-SHA-256.
2) Server does not support channel binding, sends SCRAM-SHA-256 as
allowed mechanism.
2-1) Client supports channel binding, still it has no choice but to
choose SCRAM-SHA-256.
2-2) Client does not support channel binding, it chooses SCRAM-SHA-256.
In all these scenarios the connection should succeed, and the one which
was handled incorrectly prior this commit is 1-2), causing the
connection attempt to fail because client chose SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS over
SCRAM-SHA-256.

50ae619035 Fix inconsistent out-of-memory error reporting in dsa.c.
Commit 16be2fd1 introduced the flag DSA_ALLOC_NO_OOM to control whether
the DSA allocator would raise an error or return InvalidDsaPointer on
failure to allocate.  One edge case was not handled correctly: if we
fail to allocate an internal "span" object for a large allocation, we
would always return InvalidDsaPointer regardless of the flag; a caller
not expecting that could then dereference a null pointer.

This is a plausible explanation for a one-off report of a segfault.

Remove a redundant pair of braces so that all three stanzas that handle
DSA_ALLOC_NO_OOM match in style, for visual consistency.

While fixing inconsistencies, if FreePageManagerGet() can't supply the
pages that our book-keeping says it should be able to supply, then we
should always report a FATAL error.  Previously we treated that as a
regular allocation failure in one code path, but as a FATAL condition
in another.

de94ed89d5 Fix ecpg bugs caused by missing semicolons in the backend grammar.
The Bison documentation clearly states that a semicolon is required
after every grammar rule, and our scripts that generate ecpg's
grammar from the backend's implicitly assumed this is true.  But it
turns out that only ancient versions of Bison actually enforce that.
There have been a couple of rules without trailing semicolons in
gram.y for some time, and as a consequence, ecpg's grammar was faulty
and produced wrong output for the affected statements.

To fix, add the missing semis, and add some cross-checks to ecpg's
scripts so that they'll bleat if we mess this up again.

The cases that were broken were:
* "SET variable = DEFAULT" (but not "SET variable TO DEFAULT"),
  as well as allied syntaxes such as ALTER SYSTEM SET ... DEFAULT.
  These produced syntactically invalid output that the server
  would reject.
* Multiple type names in DROP TYPE/DOMAIN commands.  Only the
  first type name would be listed in the emitted command.

07fba9ad9b Fix plan created for inherited UPDATE/DELETE with all tables excluded.
In the case where inheritance_planner() finds that every table has
been excluded by constraints, it thought it could get away with
making a plan consisting of just a dummy Result node.  While certainly
there's no updating or deleting to be done, this had two user-visible
problems: the plan did not report the correct set of output columns
when a RETURNING clause was present, and if there were any
statement-level triggers that should be fired, it didn't fire them.

Hence, rather than only generating the dummy Result, we need to
stick a valid ModifyTable node on top, which requires a tad more
effort here.

It's been broken this way for as long as inheritance_planner() has
known about deleting excluded subplans at all (cf commit 635d42e9c),
so back-patch to all supported branches.

I didn't add a regression test, because (a) the bug is so narrow

fbec6fa38a Fix DEFAULT-handling in multi-row VALUES lists for updatable views.
INSERT ... VALUES for a single VALUES row is implemented differently
from a multi-row VALUES list, which causes inconsistent behaviour in
the way that DEFAULT items are handled. In particular, when inserting
into an auto-updatable view on top of a table with a column default, a
DEFAULT item in a single VALUES row gets correctly replaced with the
table column's default, but for a multi-row VALUES list it is replaced
with NULL.

Fix this by allowing rewriteValuesRTE() to leave DEFAULT items in the
VALUES list untouched if the target relation is an auto-updatable view
and has no column default, deferring DEFAULT-expansion until the query
against the base relation is rewritten. For all other types of target
relation, including tables and trigger- and rule-updatable views, we
must continue to replace DEFAULT items with NULL in the absence of a
column default.

This is somewhat complicated by the fact that if an auto-updatable
view has DO ALSO rules attached, the VALUES lists for the product
queries need to be handled differently from the original query, since
the product queries need to act like rule-updatable views whereas the
original query has auto-updatable view semantics.

7ed9285c69 Mark correctly initial slot snapshots with MVCC type when built
When building an initial slot snapshot, snapshots are marked with
historic MVCC snapshots as type with the marker field being set in
SnapBuildBuildSnapshot() but not overriden in SnapBuildInitialSnapshot().
Existing callers of SnapBuildBuildSnapshot() do not care about the type
of snapshot used, but extensions calling it actually may, as reported.

ee9e145 has fixed the tests of pg_basebackup for checksums a first time,
still one seek() call missed the shot.  Also, the data written in files
to emulate corruptions was not actually writing zeros as the quoting
style was incorrect.

1d93d18045 Fix race in dsm_unpin_segment() when handles are reused.
Teach dsm_unpin_segment() to skip segments that are in the process
of being destroyed by another backend, when searching for a handle.
Such a segment cannot possibly be the one we are looking for, even
if its handle matches.  Another slot might hold a recently created
segment that has the same handle value by coincidence, and we need
to keep searching for that one.

The bug caused rare "cannot unpin a segment that is not pinned"
errors on 10 and 11.  Similar to commit 6c0fb941 for dsm_attach().

Back-patch to 10, where dsm_unpin_segment() landed.

dblink_get_result() have been called first.

4eca1905d3 Fix CREATE VIEW to allow zero-column views.
We should logically have allowed this case when we allowed zero-column
tables, but it was overlooked.

Although this might be thought a feature addition, it's really a bug
fix, because it was possible to create a zero-column view via
the convert-table-to-view code path, and then you'd have a situation
where dump/reload would fail.  Hence, back-patch to all supported
branches.

Arrange the added test cases to provide coverage of the related
pg_dump code paths (since these views will be dumped and reloaded
during the pg_upgrade regression test).  I also made them test
the case where pg_dump has to postpone the view rule into post-data,
which disturbingly had no regression coverage before.

faf132449c Fix race in dsm_attach() when handles are reused.
DSM handle values can be reused as soon as the underlying shared memory
object has been destroyed.  That means that for a brief moment we
might have two DSM slots with the same handle.  While trying to attach,
if we encounter a slot with refcnt == 1, meaning that it is currently
being destroyed, we should continue our search in case the same handle
exists in another slot.

The race manifested as a rare "dsa_area could not attach to segment"
error, and was more likely in 10 and 11 due to the lack of distinct
seed for random() in parallel workers.  It was made very unlikely in
in master by commit 197e4af9, and older releases don't usually create
new DSM segments in background workers so it was also unlikely there.

This fixes the root cause of bug report #15585, in which the error
could also sometimes result in a self-deadlock in the error path.
It's not yet clear if further changes are needed to avoid that failure
mode.

Back-patch to 9.4, where dsm.c arrived.

b8386b0362 Fix rare dsa_allocate() failures due to freepage.c corruption.
In a corner case, a btree page was allocated during a clean-up operation
that could cause the tracking of the largest contiguous span of free
space to get out of whack.  That was supposed to be prevented by the use
of the "soft" flag to avoid allocating internal pages during incidental
clean-up work, but the flag was ignored in the case where the FPM was
promoted from singleton format to btree format.  Repair.

Remove an obsolete comment in passing.

Back-patch to 10, where freepage.c arrived (as support for dsa.c).

364857f738 Clean up planner confusion between ncolumns and nkeycolumns.
We're only going to consider key columns when creating indexquals,
so there is no point in having the outer loops in indxpath.c iterate
further than nkeycolumns.

Doing so in match_pathkeys_to_index() is actually wrong, and would have
caused crashes by now, except that we have no index AMs supporting both
amcanorderbyop and amcaninclude.

It's also wrong in relation_has_unique_index_for().  The effect there is
to fail to prove uniqueness even when the index does prove it, if there
are extra columns.

Also future-proof examine_variable() for the day when extra columns can
be expressions, and fix what's either a thinko or just an oversight in
btcostestimate(): we should consider the number of key columns, not the
total, when deciding whether to derate correlation.

None of these things seemed important enough to risk changing in a
just-before-wrap patch, but since we're past the release wrap window,
time to fix 'em.

c2e0954be3 Relax overly strict assertion
Ever since its birth, ReorderBufferBuildTupleCidHash() has contained an
assertion that a catalog tuple cannot change Cmax after acquiring one.  But
that's wrong: if a subtransaction executes DDL that affects that catalog
tuple, and later aborts and another DDL affects the same tuple, it will
change Cmax.  Relax the assertion to merely verify that the Cmax remains
valid and monotonically increasing, instead.

Add a test that tickles the relevant code.

a4c6a73aa4 Fix erroneous error reports in snapbuild.c.
It's pretty unhelpful to report the wrong file name in a complaint
about syscall failure, but SnapBuildSerialize managed to do that twice
in a span of 50 lines.  Also fix half a dozen missing or poorly-chosen
errcode assignments; that's mostly cosmetic, but still wrong.

Noted while studying recent failures on buildfarm member nightjar.
I'm not sure whether those reports are actually giving the wrong
filename, because there are two places here with identically
spelled error messages.  The other one is specifically coded not
to report ENOENT, but if it's this one, how could we be getting
ENOENT from open() with O_CREAT?  Need to sit back and await results.

However, these ereports are clearly broken from birth, so back-patch.

12055c8f64 Adjust error message
We usually don't use "namespace" in user-facing error messages.  Also,
in master this was replaced by another error message referring to
"temporary objects", so we might as well use that here to avoid
introducing too many variants.
