Previously, this code blindly followed the common coding pattern of
passing PQserverVersion(AH->connection) as the server-version parameter
of fmtQualifiedId. That works as long as we have a connection; but in
pg_restore with text output, we don't. Instead we got a zero from
PQserverVersion, which fmtQualifiedId interpreted as "server is too old to
have schemas", and so the name went unqualified. That still accidentally
managed to work in many cases, which is probably why this ancient bug went
undetected for so long. It only became obvious in the wake of the changes
to force dump/restore to execute with restricted search_path.
In HEAD/v11, let's deal with this by ripping out fmtQualifiedId's server-
version behavioral dependency, and just making it schema-qualify all the
time. We no longer support pg_dump from servers old enough to need the
ability to omit schema name, let alone restoring to them. (Also, the few
callers outside pg_dump already didn't work with pre-schema servers.)
In older branches, that's not an acceptable solution, so instead just
tweak the DISABLE/ENABLE TRIGGER logic to ensure it will schema-qualify
its output regardless of server version.

This patch makes the geometric operators and functions use the exported
function of the float4/float8 datatypes. The main reason of doing so is
to check for underflow and overflow, and to handle NaNs consciously.
The float datatypes consider NaNs values to be equal and greater than
all non-NaN values. This change considers NaNs equal only for equality
operators. The placement operators, contains, overlaps, left/right of
etc. continue to return false when NaNs are involved. We don't need
to worry about them being considered greater than any-NaN because there
aren't any basic comparison operators like less/greater than for the
geometric datatypes.
The changes may be summarised as:
* Check for underflow, overflow and division by zero
* Consider NaN values to be equal
* Return NULL when the distance is NaN for all closest point operators
* Favour not-NaN over NaN where it makes sense
The patch also replaces all occurrences of "double" as "float8". They
are the same, but were used inconsistently in the same file.

Since our substitute snprintf now returns a C99-compliant result,
there's no need anymore to have complicated code to cope with pre-C99
behavior. We can just make configure substitute snprintf.c if it finds
that the system snprintf() is pre-C99. (Note: I do not believe that
there are any platforms where this test will trigger that weren't
already being rejected due to our other C99-ish feature requirements for
snprintf. But let's add the check for paranoia's sake.) Then, simplify
the call sites that had logic to cope with the pre-C99 definition.
I also dropped some stuff that was being paranoid about the possibility
of snprintf overrunning the given buffer. The only reports we've ever
heard of that being a problem were for Solaris 7, which is long dead,
and we've sure not heard any reports of these assertions triggering in
a long time. So let's drop that complexity too.
Likewise, drop some code that wasn't trusting snprintf to set errno
when it returns -1. That would be not-per-spec, and again there's
no real reason to believe it is a live issue, especially not for
snprintfs that pass all of configure's feature checks.

We aren't very strict about keeping FSM up to date on WAL replay,
because per-page freespace values aren't critical in replicas (can't
write to heap in a replica; and if the replica is promoted, the values
would be updated by VACUUM anyway). However, VACUUM since 9.6 can skip
processing pages marked all-visible or all-frozen, and if such pages are
recorded in FSM with wrong values, those values are blindly propagated
to FSM's upper layers by VACUUM's FreeSpaceMapVacuum. (This rationale
assumes that crashes are not very frequent, because those would cause
outdated FSM to occur in the primary.)
Even when the FSM is outdated in standby, things are not too bad
normally, because, most per-page FSM values will be zero (other than
those propagated with the base-backup that created the standby); only
once the remaining free space is less than 0.2*BLCKSZ the per-page value
is maintained by WAL replay of heap ins/upd/del. However, if
wal_log_hints=on causes complete FSM pages to be propagated to a standby
via full-page images, many too-optimistic per-page values can end up
being registered in the standby.
Incorrect per-page values aren't critical in most cases, since an
inserter that is given a page that doesn't actually contain the claimed
free space will update FSM with the correct value, and retry until it
finds a usable page. However, if there are many such updates to do, an
inserter can spend a long time doing them before a usable page is found;
in a heavily trafficked insert-only table with many concurrent inserters
this has been observed to cause several second stalls, causing visible
application malfunction.
To fix this problem, it seems sufficient to have heap_xlog_visible
(replay of setting all-visible and all-frozen VM bits for a heap page)
update the FSM value for the page being processed. This fixes the
per-page counters together with making the page skippable to vacuum, so
when vacuum does FreeSpaceMapVacuum, the values propagated to FSM upper
layers are the correct ones, avoiding the problem.
While at it, apply the same fix to heap_xlog_clean (replay of tuple
removal by HOT pruning and vacuum). This makes any space freed by the
cleaning available earlier than the next vacuum in the promoted replica.
Backpatch to 9.6, where this problem was diagnosed on an insert-only
table with all-frozen pages, which were introduced as a concept in that
release. Theoretically it could apply with all-visible pages to older
branches, but there's been no report of that and it doesn't backpatch
cleanly anyway.

Fix a small number of places that were testing the result of snprintf()
but doing so incorrectly. The right test for buffer overrun, per C99,
is "result >= bufsize" not "result > bufsize". Some places were also
checking for failure with "result == -1", but the standard only says
that a negative value is delivered on failure.
(Note that this only makes these places correct if snprintf() delivers
C99-compliant results. But at least now these places are consistent
with all the other places where we assume that.)
Also, make psql_start_test() and isolation_start_test() check for
buffer overrun while constructing their shell commands. There seems
like a higher risk of overrun, with more severe consequences, here
than there is for the individual file paths that are made elsewhere
in the same functions, so this seemed like a worthwhile change.
Also fix guc.c's do_serialize() to initialize errno = 0 before
calling vsnprintf. In principle, this should be unnecessary because
vsnprintf should have set errno if it returns a failure indication ...
but the other two places this coding pattern is cribbed from don't
assume that, so let's be consistent.
These errors are all very old, so back-patch as appropriate. I think
that only the shell command overrun cases are even theoretically
reachable in practice, but there's not much point in erroneous error
checks.

C99 says that the result should be the number of bytes that would have
been emitted given a large enough buffer, not the number we actually
were able to put in the buffer. It's time to make our substitute
implementation comply with that. Not doing so results in inefficiency
in buffer-enlargement cases, and also poses a portability hazard for
third-party code that might expect C99-compliant snprintf behavior
within Postgres.
In passing, remove useless tests for str == NULL; neither C99 nor
predecessor standards ever allowed that except when count == 0,
so I see no reason to expend cycles on making that a non-crash case
for this implementation. Also, don't waste a byte in pg_vfprintf's
local I/O buffer; this might have performance benefits by allowing
aligned writes during flushbuffer calls.

Commit 5f374fe7a attempted to turn the connect_timeout from an overall
maximum time limit into a per-host limit, but it didn't do a great job of
that. The timer would only get restarted if we actually detected timeout
within connectDBComplete(), not if we changed our attention to a new host
for some other reason. In that case the old timeout continued to run,
possibly causing a premature timeout failure for the new host.
Fix that, and also tweak the logic so that if we do get a timeout,
we advance to the next available IP address, not to the next host name.
There doesn't seem to be a good reason to assume that all the IP
addresses supplied for a given host name will necessarily fail the
same way as the current one. Moreover, this conforms better to the
admittedly-vague documentation statement that the timeout is "per
connection attempt". I changed that to "per host name or IP address"
to be clearer. (Note that reconnections to the same server, such as for
switching protocol version or SSL status, don't get their own separate
timeout; that was true before and remains so.)
Also clarify documentation about the interpretation of connect_timeout
values less than 2.

Commit dafa084, added in 10, made the removal of temporary orphaned
tables more aggressive. This commit makes an extra step into the
aggressiveness by adding a flag in each backend's MyProc which tracks
down any temporary namespace currently in use. The flag is set when the
namespace gets created and can be reset if the temporary namespace has
been created in a transaction or sub-transaction which is aborted. The
flag value assignment is assumed to be atomic, so this can be done in a
lock-less fashion like other flags already present in PGPROC like
databaseId or backendId, still the fact that the temporary namespace and
table created are still locked until the transaction creating those
commits acts as a barrier for other backends.
This new flag gets used by autovacuum to discard more aggressively
orphaned tables by additionally checking for the database a backend is
connected to as well as its temporary namespace in-use, removing
orphaned temporary relations even if a backend reuses the same slot as
one which created temporary relations in a past session.

The pump_nb() step might've already received the desired data, so we must
check for that at the top of the loop not the bottom. Otherwise, the
call to pump() will sit with nothing to do until the timeout elapses.
pump_until then falls out with apparent success ... but the timeout has
been used up, causing the next call of pump_until to report a timeout
failure. I believe this explains the intermittent timeout failures
we've seen in the buildfarm ever since this test went in. I was able
to reproduce the problem on gaur semi-repeatably, and this appears to
fix it.
In passing, remove a duplicate assignment, fix one stdin-assignment to

When considering a partitioning parent rel, we should stop processing that
subroot as soon as we've done adjust_appendrel_attrs and any securityQuals
updates. The rest of this is unnecessary, and indeed adding duplicate
subquery RTEs to the subroot is *wrong*. As the code stood, the children
of that partition ended up with two sets of copied subquery RTEs, confusing
matters greatly. Even more hilarity ensued if all of the children got
excluded by constraint exclusion, so that the extra RTEs didn't make it

It's often unsafe to reference errno within an elog/ereport call, because
there are a lot of sub-functions involved and they might not all preserve
errno. (This is why we support the %m format spec: it works off a value
of errno captured before we execute any potentially-unsafe functions in
the arguments.) Therefore, we have a project policy not to use errno
there.
This patch adds a hack to cause an (admittedly obscure) compiler error
for such unsafe usages. With the current code, the error will only be seen
on Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD, but that should certainly be enough to catch
mistakes in the buildfarm if they somehow get missed earlier.
In addition, fix some places in src/common/exec.c that trip the error.
I think these places are actually all safe, but it's simple enough to
avoid the error by capturing errno manually, and doing so is good
future-proofing in case these call sites get any more complicated.

The elog/ereport family of functions certainly support the %m format spec,
because they implement it "by hand". But elsewhere we have printf wrappers
that might or might not allow it depending on whether the platform's printf
does. (Most non-glibc versions don't, and notably, src/port/snprintf.c
doesn't.) Hence, rather than using the gnu_printf format archetype
interchangeably for all these functions, use it only for elog/ereport.
This will allow us to get compiler warnings for mistakes like the ones
fixed in commit a13b47a59, at least on platforms where printf doesn't
take %m and gcc is correctly configured to know it. (Unfortunately,
that won't happen on Linux, nor on macOS according to my testing.
It remains to be seen what the buildfarm's gcc-on-Windows animals will
think of this, but we may well have to rely on less-popular platforms
to warn us about unportable code of this kind.)

Backpatch to REL_11_STABLE
Commit 9da0cc3528, which introduced parallel CREATE INDEX, failed to
propagate relmapper.c backend local cache state to parallel worker
processes. This could result in parallel index builds against mapped
catalog relations where the leader process (participating as a worker)
scans the new, pristine relfilenode, while worker processes scan the
obsolescent relfilenode. When this happened, the final index structure
was typically not consistent with the owning table's structure. The
final index structure could contain entries formed from both heap
relfilenodes. Only rebuilds on mapped catalog relations that occur as
part of a VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER could become corrupt in practice, since
their mapped relation relfilenode swap is what allows the inconsistency
to arise.
On master, fix the problem by propagating the required relmapper.c
backend state as part of standard parallel initialization (Cf. commit
29d58fd3). On v11, simply disallow builds against mapped catalog
relations by deeming them parallel unsafe.

Since commit c8e8b5a6e, this has been zeroed out using the wrong length.
In practice the length would always be too small, leading to not zeroing
the whole buffer rather than clobbering additional memory; and that's
pretty harmless, both because shmem would likely start out as zeroes
and because we'd reinitialize any given entry before use. Still,
it's bogus, so fix it.

The original coding here (which is, I believe, my fault) supposed that
it didn't need to concern itself with the possibility that one object
of a given type-priority has a namespace while another doesn't. But
that's not reliably true anymore, if it ever was; and if it does happen
then it's possible that DOTypeNameCompare returns self-inconsistent
comparison results. That leads to unspecified behavior in qsort()
and a resultant weird output order from pg_dump.
This should end up being only a cosmetic problem, because any ordering
constraints that actually matter should be enforced by the later
dependency-based sort. Still, it's a bug, so back-patch.

patch to the extent of making NULL sort after non-NULL, for consistency

The logic in PQconnectPoll() did not take care to ensure that all of
a PGconn's internal state variables were reset before trying a new
connection attempt. If we got far enough in the connection sequence
to have changed any of these variables, and then decided to try a new
server address or server name, the new connection might be completed
with some state that really only applied to the failed connection.
While this has assorted bad consequences, the only one that is clearly
a security issue is that password_needed didn't get reset, so that
if the first server asked for a password and the second didn't,
PQconnectionUsedPassword() would return an incorrect result. This
could be leveraged by unprivileged users of dblink or postgres_fdw
to allow them to use server-side login credentials that they should
not be able to use.
Other notable problems include the possibility of forcing a v2-protocol
connection to a server capable of supporting v3, or overriding
"sslmode=prefer" to cause a non-encrypted connection to a server that
would have accepted an encrypted one. Those are certainly bugs but
it's harder to paint them as security problems in themselves. However,
forcing a v2-protocol connection could result in libpq having a wrong
idea of the server's standard_conforming_strings setting, which opens
the door to SQL-injection attacks. The extent to which that's actually
a problem, given the prerequisite that the attacker needs control of
the client's connection parameters, is unclear.
These problems have existed for a long time, but became more easily
exploitable in v10, both because it introduced easy ways to force libpq
to abandon a connection attempt at a late stage and then try another one
(rather than just giving up), and because it provided an easy way to
specify multiple target hosts.
Fix by rearranging PQconnectPoll's state machine to provide centralized
places to reset state properly when moving to a new target host or when
dropping and retrying a connection to the same host.

Security: CVE-2018-10915
There are some problems with the tls-unique channel binding type. It's not
supported by all SSL libraries, and strictly speaking it's not defined for
TLS 1.3 at all, even though at least in OpenSSL, the functions used for it
still seem to work with TLS 1.3 connections. And since we had no
mechanism to negotiate what channel binding type to use, there would be
awkward interoperability issues if a server only supported some channel
binding types. tls-server-end-point seems feasible to support with any SSL
library, so let's just stick to that.
This removes the scram_channel_binding libpq option altogether, since there
is now only one supported channel binding type.
This also removes all the channel binding tests from the SSL test suite.
They were really just testing the scram_channel_binding option, which
is now gone. Channel binding is used if both client and server support it,
so it is used in the existing tests. It would be good to have some tests
specifically for channel binding, to make sure it really is used, and the
different combinations of a client and a server that support or doesn't
support it. The current set of settings we have make it hard to write such
tests, but I did test those things manually, by disabling
HAVE_BE_TLS_GET_CERTIFICATE_HASH and/or
HAVE_PGTLS_GET_PEER_CERTIFICATE_HASH.
I also removed the SCRAM_CHANNEL_BINDING_TLS_END_POINT constant. This is a
matter of taste, but IMO it's more readable to just use the
"tls-server-end-point" string.
Refactor the checks on whether the SSL library supports the functions
needed for tls-server-end-point channel binding. Now the server won't
advertise, and the client won't choose, the SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS variant, if
compiled with an OpenSSL version too old to support it.
In the passing, add some sanity checks to check that the chosen SASL
mechanism, SCRAM-SHA-256 or SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS, matches whether the SCRAM
exchange used channel binding or not. For example, if the client selects
the non-channel-binding variant SCRAM-SHA-256, but in the SCRAM message
uses channel binding anyway. It's harmless from a security point of view,
I believe, and I'm not sure if there are some other conditions that would
cause the connection to fail, but it seems better to be strict about these
things and check explicitly.

When expanding an updatable view that is an INSERT's target, the rewriter
failed to rewrite Vars in the ON CONFLICT UPDATE clause. This accidentally
worked if the view was just "SELECT * FROM ...", as the transformation
would be a no-op in that case. With more complicated view targetlists,
this omission would often lead to "attribute ... has the wrong type" errors
or even crashes, as reported by Mario De Frutos Dieguez.
Fix by adding code to rewriteTargetView to fix up the data structure
correctly. The easiest way to update the exclRelTlist list is to rebuild
it from scratch looking at the new target relation, so factor the code
for that out of transformOnConflictClause to make it sharable.
In passing, avoid duplicate permissions checks against the EXCLUDED
pseudo-relation, and prevent useless view expansion of that relation's
dummy RTE. The latter is only known to happen (after this patch) in cases
where the query would fail later due to not having any INSTEAD OF triggers
for the view. But by exactly that token, it would create an unintended
and very poorly tested state of the query data structure, so it seems like
a good idea to prevent it from happening at all.
This has been broken since ON CONFLICT was introduced, so back-patch
to 9.5.

It's necessary to make sure that owning tables have a relcache
invalidation prior to advancing the command counter to make
newly-entered catalog tuples for the index visible. inval.c must be
able to maintain the consistency of the local caches in the event of
transaction abort. There is usually only a problem when CREATE INDEX
transactions abort, since there is a generic invalidation once we reach
index_update_stats().
This bug is of long standing. Problems were made much more likely by
the addition of parallel CREATE INDEX (commit 9da0cc3528), but it is
strongly suspected that similar problems can be triggered without
involving plan_create_index_workers(). (plan_create_index_workers()
triggers a relcache build or rebuild, which previously only happened in

Commit 1944cdc98 changed PQhost() to return the hostaddr value when that
is specified and host isn't. This is a good idea in general, but
fe-auth.c and related files contain PQhost() calls for which it isn't.
Specifically, when we compare SSL certificates or other server identity
information to the host field, we do not want to use hostaddr instead;
that's not what's documented, that's not what happened pre-v10, and
it doesn't seem like a good idea.
Instead, we can just look at connhost[].host directly. This does what
we want in v10 and up; in particular, if neither host nor hostaddr
were given, the host field will be replaced with the default host name.
That seems useful, and it's likely the reason that these places were
coded to call PQhost() originally (since pre-v10, the stored field was
not replaced with the default).

We can also miss accounting for a Limit node when Gather or Gather Merge

such nodes. So we allow a Limit node to shut down the resources before it
completes the execution.

The previous coding here supposed that if run-time partitioning applied to

To fix, restructure the related plan-time and execution-time data

Before v10, we always searched ~/.pgpass using the host parameter,
and nothing else, to match to the "hostname" field of ~/.pgpass.
(However, null host or host matching DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR was replaced by
"localhost".) In v10, this got broken by commit 274bb2b38, repaired by
commit bdac9836d, and broken again by commit 7b02ba62e; in the code
actually shipped, we'd search with hostaddr if both that and host were
specified --- though oddly, *not* if only hostaddr were specified.
Since this is directly contrary to the documentation, and not
backwards-compatible, it's clearly a bug.
However, the change wasn't totally without justification, even though it
wasn't done quite right, because the pre-v10 behavior has arguably been
buggy since we added hostaddr. If hostaddr is specified and host isn't,
the pre-v10 code will search ~/.pgpass for "localhost", and ship that
password off to a server that most likely isn't local at all. That's
unhelpful at best, and could be a security breach at worst.
Therefore, rather than just revert to that old behavior, let's define
the behavior as "search with host if provided, else with hostaddr if
provided, else search for localhost". (As before, a host name matching
DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR is replaced by localhost.) This matches the
behavior of the actual connection code, so that we don't pick up an
inappropriate password; and it allows useful searches to happen when
only hostaddr is given.
While we're messing around here, ensure that empty elements within a
host or hostaddr list select the same behavior as a totally-empty
field would; for instance "host=a,,b" is equivalent to "host=a,/tmp,b"
if DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR is /tmp. Things worked that way in some cases
already, but not consistently so, which contributed to the confusion
about what key ~/.pgpass would get searched with.
Update documentation accordingly, and also clarify some nearby text.
Back-patch to v10 where the host/hostaddr list functionality was
introduced.

CopyFrom allows multi-inserts to be used for non-partitioned tables, but
this was disabled for partitioned tables. The reason for this appeared
to be that the tuple may not belong to the same partition as the
previous tuple did. Not allowing multi-inserts here greatly slowed down
imports into partitioned tables. These could take twice as long as a
copy to an equivalent non-partitioned table. It seems wise to do
something about this, so this change allows the multi-inserts by
flushing the so-far inserted tuples to the partition when the next tuple
does not belong to the same partition, or when the buffer fills. This
improves performance when the next tuple in the stream commonly belongs
to the same partition as the previous tuple.
In cases where the target partition changes on every tuple, using
multi-inserts slightly slows the performance. To get around this we
track the average size of the batches that have been inserted and
adaptively enable or disable multi-inserts based on the size of the
batch. Some testing was done and the regression only seems to exist
when the average size of the insert batch is close to 1, so let's just
enable multi-inserts when the average size is at least 1.3. More
performance testing might reveal a better number for, this, but since
the slowdown was only 1-2% it does not seem critical enough to spend too
much time calculating it. In any case it may depend on other factors
rather than just the size of the batch.
Allowing multi-inserts for partitions required a bit of work around the
per-tuple memory contexts as we must flush the tuples when the next
tuple does not belong the same partition. In which case there is no
good time to reset the per-tuple context, as we've already built the new
tuple by this time. In order to work around this we maintain two
per-tuple contexts and just switch between them every time the partition
changes and reset the old one. This does mean that the first of each
batch of tuples is not allocated in the same memory context as the
others, but that does not matter since we only reset the context once
the previous batch has been inserted.

Commits 742869946 et al turn out to be a couple bricks shy of a load.
We were dumping the stored values of GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables as they
appear in proconfig or setconfig catalog columns. However, although that
quoting rule looks a lot like SQL-identifier double quotes, there are two
critical differences: empty strings ("") are legal, and depending on which
variable you're considering, values longer than NAMEDATALEN might be valid
too. So the current technique fails altogether on empty-string list
entries (as reported by Steven Winfield in bug #15248) and it also risks
truncating file pathnames during dump/reload of GUC values that are lists
of pathnames.
To fix, split the stored value without any downcasing or truncation,
and then emit each element as a SQL string literal.
This is a tad annoying, because we now have three copies of the
comma-separated-string splitting logic in varlena.c as well as a fourth
one in dumputils.c. (Not to mention the randomly-different-from-those
splitting logic in libpq...) I looked at unifying these, but it would
be rather a mess unless we're willing to tweak the API definitions of
SplitIdentifierString, SplitDirectoriesString, or both. That might be
worth doing in future; but it seems pretty unsafe for a back-patched

The primary goal of this patch is to eliminate duplicate code and share
code between different geometric data types more often, to prepare the
ground for additional patches. Until now the code reuse was limited,
probably because the simpler types (line and point) were implemented
after the more complex ones.
The changes are quite extensive and can be summarised as:
* Eliminate SQL-level function calls.
* Re-use more functions to implement others.
* Unify internal function names and signatures.
* Remove private functions from geo_decls.h.
* Replace should-not-happen checks with assertions.
* Add comments describe for various functions.
* Remove some unreachable code.
* Define delimiter symbols of line datatype like the other ones.
* Remove the GEODEBUG macro and printf() calls.
* Unify code style of a few oddly formatted lines.
While the goal was to cause minimal user-visible changes, it was not
possible to keep the original behavior in all cases - for example when
handling NaN values, or when reusing code makes the functions return
consistent results.

During parallel index scans, if the current page to be read is deleted, we
skip it and try to get the next page for a scan without releasing the buffer
lock on the current page. To get the next page, sometimes it needs to wait
for another process to complete its scan and advance it to the next page.
Now, it is quite possible that the master backend has errored out before
advancing the scan and issued a termination signal for all workers. The
workers failed to notice the termination request during wait because the
interrupts are held due to buffer lock on the previous page. This lead to
all workers being stuck.
The fix is to release the buffer lock on current page before trying to get
the next page. We are already doing same in backward scans, but missed
it for forward scans.

We suppressed one of these test cases in commit feb1cc559 because
it was failing to produce the expected results on CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS

so let's set up a test file that is expected to vary between regular and

Since commit 6719b238e it's been possible for the values of plpgsql
record field variables to be exposed to the planner as Params.
(Before that, plpgsql never supplied values for such variables during
planning, so that the problematic code wasn't reached.) Other places
that touch potentially-type-mutable Params either cope gracefully or
do runtime-test-and-ereport checks that the type is what they expect.
But eval_const_expressions() just had an Assert, meaning that it either
failed the assertion or risked crashes due to using an incompatible
value.
In this case, rather than throwing an ereport immediately, we can just
not perform a const-substitution in case of a mismatch. This seems
important for the same reason that the Param fetch was speculative:
we might not actually reach this part of the expression at runtime.
Test case will follow in a separate commit.

Until now shadowed_variables was the only plpgsql check supported by
plpgsql.extra_warnings and plpgsql.extra_errors. This patch introduces
two new checks - strict_multi_assignment and too_many_rows. Unlike
shadowed_variables, these new checks are enforced at run-time.
strict_multi_assignment checks that commands allowing multi-assignment
(for example SELECT INTO) have the same number of sources and targets.
too_many_rows checks that queries with an INTO clause return one row
exactly.
These checks are aimed at cases that are technically valid and allowed,
but are often a sign of a bug. Therefore those checks are expected to
be enabled primarily in development and testing environments.

I blew the dust off a Bourne shell (file date 1996, yea verily) and
tried to run test.sh with it. It mostly worked, but I found that the
temp-directory creation code introduced by commit be76a6d39 was not
compatible, for a couple of reasons: this shell thinks "set -e" should
force an exit if a command within backticks fails, and it also thinks code
within braces should be executed by a sub-shell, meaning that variable
settings don't propagate back up to the parent shell. In view of Victor
Wagner's report that Solaris is still using pre-POSIX shells, seems like
we oughta make this case work. It's not like the code is any less
idiomatic this way; the prior coding technique appeared nowhere else.
(There is a remaining bash-ism here, which is that $RANDOM doesn't do
what the code hopes in non-bash shells. But the use of $$ elsewhere in
that path should be enough to ensure uniqueness and some amount of
randomness, so I think it's okay as-is.)

When built using OpenSSL, pg_strong_random() uses RAND_bytes() to
generate the random number. On very rare occasions that can fail, if
its PRNG has not been seeded with enough data. Additionally, once it
does fail, all subsequent calls will also fail until more seed data is
added. Since this is required during backend startup, this can result
in all new backends failing to start until a postmaster restart.
Guard against that by checking the state of OpenSSL's PRNG using
RAND_status(), and if necessary (very rarely), seeding it using
RAND_poll().

This is essential information when looking at an index that has
"included" columns. Per discussion, follow the style used in \dC
and some other places: column header is "Key?" and values are "yes"
or "no" (all translatable).
While at it, revise describeOneTableDetails to be a bit more maintainable:
avoid hard-wired column numbers and multiple repetitions of what needs
to be identical test logic. This also results in the emitted catalog
query corresponding more closely to what we print, which should be a
benefit to users of ECHO_HIDDEN mode, and perhaps a bit faster too
(the old logic sometimes asked for values it would not print, even
ones that are fairly expensive to get).

The multi-argument form of pg_get_indexdef() failed to print anything when
asked to print a single index column that is an included column rather than
a key column. This seems an unintentional result of someone having tried
to take a short-cut and use the attrsOnly flag for two different purposes.
To fix, split said flag into two flags, attrsOnly which suppresses
non-attribute info, and keysOnly which suppresses included columns.
Add a test case using psql's \d command, which relies on that function.
(It's mighty tempting at this point to replace pg_get_indexdef_worker's
mess of boolean flag arguments with a single bitmask-of-flags argument,
which would allow making the call sites much more self-documenting.
But I refrained for the moment.)

This script supposed that if it turned hot_standby_feedback on and then
shut down the standby server, at least one feedback message would be
guaranteed to be sent before the standby stops. But there is no such
guarantee, if the standby's walreceiver process is slow enough --- and
we've seen multiple failures in the buildfarm showing that that does
happen in practice. While we could rearrange the walreceiver logic to
make it less likely, it seems probably impossible to create a really
bulletproof guarantee of that sort; and if we tried, we might create
situations where the walreceiver wouldn't react in a timely manner to
shutdown commands. It seems better instead to remove the script's
assumption that feedback will occur before shutdown.

The initial version of the included-index-column feature stated that
included columns couldn't be the same as any key column of the index.
While it'd be pretty silly to do that, since the included column would be
entirely redundant, we've never prohibited redundant index columns before
so it's not very consistent to do so here. Moreover, the prohibition
was itself badly implemented, so that it failed to reject columns that
were effectively identical but not spelled quite alike, as reported by
Aditya Toshniwal.
(Moreover, it's not hard to imagine that for some non-btree index types,
such cases would be non-silly anyhow: the index might use a lossy
representation for key columns but be able to support retrieval of the
original form of included columns.)
Hence, let's just drop the prohibition.
In passing, do some copy-editing on the documentation for the
included-column feature.

Historically, we've allowed auxiliary processes to take buffer pins without
tracking them in a ResourceOwner. However, that creates problems for error
recovery. In particular, we've seen multiple reports of assertion crashes
in the startup process when it gets an error while holding a buffer pin,
as for example if it gets ENOSPC during a write. In a non-assert build,
the process would simply exit without releasing the pin at all. We've
gotten away with that so far just because a failure exit of the startup
process translates to a database crash anyhow; but any similar behavior
in other aux processes could result in stuck pins and subsequent problems
in vacuum.
To improve this, institute a policy that we must *always* have a resowner
backing any attempt to pin a buffer, which we can enforce just by removing
the previous special-case code in resowner.c. Add infrastructure to make
it easy to create a process-lifespan AuxProcessResourceOwner and clear
out its contents at appropriate times. Replace existing ad-hoc resowner
management in bgwriter.c and other aux processes with that. (Thus, while
the startup process gains a resowner where it had none at all before, some
other aux process types are replacing an ad-hoc resowner with this code.)
Also use the AuxProcessResourceOwner to manage buffer pins taken during
StartupXLOG and ShutdownXLOG, even when those are being run in a bootstrap
process or a standalone backend rather than a true auxiliary process.
In passing, remove some other ad-hoc resource owner creations that had
gotten cargo-culted into various other places. As far as I can tell
that was all unnecessary, and if it had been necessary it was incomplete,
due to lacking any provision for clearing those resowners later.
(Also worth noting in this connection is that a process that hasn't called
InitBufferPoolBackend has no business accessing buffers; so there's more
to do than just add the resowner if we want to touch buffers in processes
not covered by this patch.)
Although this fixes a very old bug, no back-patch, because there's no
evidence of any significant problem in non-assert builds.

A collection of typos I happened to spot while reading code, as well as
grepping for common mistakes.
Backpatch to all supported versions, as applicable, to avoid conflicts
when backporting other commits in the future.
This should tame the beast, as there are no other places where off_t is
used in the new error messages.
Reported again by longfin, which complained about walsender.c while I
spotted the other two ones while double-checking.
Some error messages related to file handling are using the code path
context to define their state. For example, 2PC-related errors are
referring to "two-phase status files", or "relation mapping file" is
used for catalog-to-filenode mapping, however those prove to be
difficult to translate, and are not more helpful than just referring to
the path of the file being worked on. So simplify all those error
messages by just referring to files with their path used. In some
cases, like the manipulation of WAL segments, the context is actually
helpful so those are kept.
Calls to the system function read() have also been rather inconsistent
with their error handling sometimes not reporting the number of bytes
read, and some other code paths trying to use an errno which has not
been set. The in-core functions are using a more consistent pattern
with this patch, which checks for both errno if set or if an
inconsistent read is happening.
So as to care about pluralization when reading an unexpected number of
byte(s), "could not read: read %d of %zu" is used as error message, with
%d field being the output result of read() and %zu the expected size.
This simplifies the work of translators with less variations of the same
message.

Update links that resulted in redirects. Most are changes from http to

In final_cost_hashjoin(), commit 9c7f5229a allowed inner_unique cases
to follow a code path previously used only for SEMI/ANTI joins; but it
neglected to fix an if-test within that path that assumed SEMI and ANTI
were the only possible cases. This resulted in a wrong value for
hashjointuples, and an ensuing bad cost estimate, for inner_unique normal
joins. Fortunately, for inner_unique normal joins we can assume the number
of joined tuples is the same as for a SEMI join; so there's no need for
more code, we just have to invert the test to check for ANTI not SEMI.
It turns out that in two contrib tests in which commit 9c7f5229a
changed the plan expected for a query, the change was actually wrong
and induced by this estimation error, not by any real improvement.

Previously convert_tuples_by_name_map naively performed a search of each
outdesc column starting at the first column in indesc and searched each
indesc column until a match was found. When partitioned tables had many
columns this could result in slow generation of the tuple conversion maps.
For INSERT and UPDATE statements that touched few rows, this could mean a
very large overhead indeed.
We can do a bit better with this loop. It's quite likely that the columns
in partitioned tables and their partitions are in the same order, so it
makes sense to start searching for each column outer column at the inner
column position 1 after where the previous match was found (per idea from
Alexander Kuzmenkov). This makes the best case search O(N) instead of
O(N^2). The worst case is still O(N^2), but it seems unlikely that would
happen.
Likewise, in the planner, make_inh_translation_list's search for the
matching column could often end up falling back on an O(N^2) type search.
This commit also improves that by first checking the column that follows
the previous match, instead of the column with the same attnum. If we
fail to match here we fallback on the syscache's hashtable lookup.

When reading an existing FSM or VM page that was found to be corrupt by the
buffer manager, the code applied PageInit() to reinitialize the page, but
did so without any locking. There is thus a hazard that two backends might
concurrently do PageInit, which in itself would still be OK, but the slower
one might then zero over subsequent data changes applied by the faster one.
Even that is unlikely to be fatal; but it's not desirable, so add locking
to prevent it.
This does not add any locking overhead in the normal code path where the
page is OK. It's not immediately obvious that that's safe, but I believe
it is, for reasons explained in the added comments.

Temporary WAL segments are created in pg_wal and named as xlogtemp.pid
before being renamed to the real deal when creating a new segment. If
an instance crashes after the temporary segment is created and before
the rename is done, then the server would finish with unremovable data.
After an instance crash, scan pg_wal and remove any such segments. With

WAL senders sending logically-decoded data fail to properly report in

Generally, if the comparison operators for a datatype or pair of datatypes
are leakproof, the corresponding btree comparison support function can be
considered so as well. But we had not originally worried about marking
support functions as leakproof, reasoning that they'd not likely be used in
queries so the marking wouldn't matter. It turns out there's at least one
place where it does matter: calc_arraycontsel() finds the target datatype's
default btree comparison function and tries to use that to estimate
selectivity, but it will be blocked in some cases if the function isn't
leakproof. This leads to unnecessarily poor selectivity estimates and bad
plans, as seen in bug #15251.
Hence, run around and apply proleakproof markings where the corresponding
btree comparison operators are leakproof. (I did eyeball each function
to verify that it wasn't doing anything surprising, too.)
This isn't a full solution to bug #15251, and it's not back-patchable
because of the need for a catversion bump. A more useful response probably
is to consider whether we can check permissions on the parent table instead
of the child. However, this change will help in some cases where that
won't, and it's easy enough to do in HEAD, so let's do so.

if there are gating clauses to apply.)
The only known case in which a failure can occur is with a ProjectSet
path directly atop a table scan path, although it seems likely that there
are other cases or will be such in future. This means that the failure
is currently only visible in the v10 branch: 9.6 didn't have ProjectSet,
while in v11 and HEAD, apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths for some weird
reason is using create_projection_path not apply_projection_to_path,

nodeWindowAgg.c failed to cope with the possibility that no ordering
columns are defined in the window frame for GROUPS mode or RANGE OFFSET
mode, leading to assertion failures or odd errors, as reported by Masahiko
Sawada and Lukas Eder. In RANGE OFFSET mode, an ordering column is really
required, so add an Assert about that. In GROUPS mode, the code would
work, except that the node initialization code wasn't in sync with the
execution code about when to set up tuplestore read pointers and spare
slots. Fix the latter for consistency's sake (even though I think the
changes described below make the out-of-sync cases unreachable for now).
Per SQL spec, a single ordering column is required for RANGE OFFSET mode,
and at least one ordering column is required for GROUPS mode. The parser
enforced the former but not the latter; add a check for that.
We were able to reach the no-ordering-column cases even with fully spec
compliant queries, though, because the planner would drop partitioning
and ordering columns from the generated plan if they were redundant with
earlier columns according to the redundant-pathkey logic, for instance
"PARTITION BY x ORDER BY y" in the presence of a "WHERE x=y" qual.
While in principle that's an optimization that could save some pointless
comparisons at runtime, it seems unlikely to be meaningful in the real
world. I think this behavior was not so much an intentional optimization
as a side-effect of an ancient decision to construct the plan node's
ordering-column info by reverse-engineering the PathKeys of the input
path. If we give up redundant-column removal then it takes very little
code to generate the plan node info directly from the WindowClause,
ensuring that we have the expected number of ordering columns in all
cases. (If anyone does complain about this, the planner could perhaps
be taught to remove redundant columns only when it's safe to do so,
ie *not* in RANGE OFFSET mode. But I doubt anyone ever will.)
With these changes, the WindowAggPath.winpathkeys field is not used for
anything anymore, so remove it.
The test cases added here are not actually very interesting given the
removal of the redundant-column-removal logic, but they would represent
important corner cases if anyone ever tries to put that back.

Such replication slots are physical slots freshly created without WAL
being reserved, which is the default behavior, which have not been used
yet as WAL consumption resources to retain WAL. This prevents advancing

We fail to handle polymorphic types properly when they are used as
partition keys: we were unnecessarily adding a RelabelType node on top,
which confuses code examining the nodes. In particular, this makes
predtest.c-based partition pruning not to work, and ruleutils.c to emit
expressions that are uglier than needed. Fix it by not adding RelabelType
when not needed.

this problem, since we already fixed it (in essentially the same way) in

The EEOP_INNER_SYSVAR and EEOP_OUTER_SYSVAR executor opcodes are not
exercised by normal queries, because setrefs.c will resolve the references
to system columns in the scan nodes already. Join nodes refer to them by
their position in the child node's target list, like user columns.
The only place where those opcodes are used, is in evaluating a trigger's
WHEN condition that references system columns. Trigger evaluation abuses
the INNER/OUTER Vars to refer to the OLD and NEW tuples. The code to handle

A critical failure in some of the end-of-recovery actions before the
end-of-recovery record is written can cause PostgreSQL to react
inconsistently with the rest of the cluster in the event of a crash
before the final record is written. Two such failures are for example
an error while processing a two-phase state files or when operating on
recovery.conf. With this commit, the failures are still considered
FATAL, but the write of the timeline history file is delayed as much as
possible so as the window between the moment the file is written and the
end-of-recovery record is generated gets minimized. This way, in the
event of a crash or a failure, the new timeline decided at promotion
will not seem taken by other nodes in the cluster. It is not really
possible to reduce to zero this window, hence one could still see
failures if a crash happens between the history file write and the
end-of-recovery record, so any future code should be careful when
adding new end-of-recovery actions. The original report from Magnus
Hagander mentioned a renamed recovery.conf as original end-of-recovery
failure which caused a timeline to be seen as taken but the subsequent
processing on the now-missing recovery.conf cause the startup process to
issue stop on FATAL, which at follow-up startup made the system
inconsistent because of on-disk changes which already happened.
Processing of two-phase state files still needs some work as corrupted
entries are simply ignored now. This is left as a future item and this
commit fixes the original complain.

Commit bc292937ae failed to update a comment about unique index
checking. _bt_insertonpg() is no longer responsible for finding an
insertion location while preventing conflicting insertions.
While we probably don't want to split up all error messages into
function and procedure variants, this one is a very prominent one, so
it's helpful to be more specific here.
When executing CALL in PL/pgSQL, we need to set a snapshot before
invoking the to-be-called procedure. Otherwise, the to-be-called
procedure might end up running without a snapshot. For LANGUAGE SQL
procedures, this would result in an assertion failure. (For most other
languages, this is usually not a problem, because those use SPI and SPI
sets snapshots in most cases.) Setting the snapshot restores the
behavior of how CALL worked when it was handled as a generic SQL
statement in PL/pgSQL (exec_stmt_execsql()).
This change revealed another problem: In SPI_commit(), we popped the
active snapshot before committing the transaction, to avoid "snapshot %p
still active" errors. However, there is no particular reason why only
at most one snapshot should be on the stack. So change this to pop all
active snapshots instead of only one.
Starting with commit 9915de6c1c, replication slot drop uses a
condition variable sleep to wait until the current user of the slot goes
away. This is more user friendly than the previous behavior of erroring
out if the slot is in use, but it fails with a not-for-user-consumption
error message in single-user mode; plus, if you're using single-user
mode because you don't want to start the server in the regular mode
(say, disk is full and WAL won't recycle because of the slot), it's
inconvenient.
Fix by skipping the cond variable sleep in single-user mode, since
there can't be anybody to wait for anyway.

Coverity complains that there is no protection in the code (at least in
non-assertion-enabled builds) against speculative insertion failing to
follow the expected protocol. Add an elog(ERROR) for the case.
If a standby crashes after promotion before having completed its first
post-recovery checkpoint, then the minimal recovery point which marks
the LSN position where the cluster is able to reach consistency may be
set to a position older than the first end-of-recovery checkpoint while
all the WAL available should be replayed. This leads to the instance
thinking that it contains inconsistent pages, causing a PANIC and a hard
instance crash even if all the WAL available has not been replayed for
certain sets of records replayed. When in crash recovery,
minRecoveryPoint is expected to always be set to InvalidXLogRecPtr,
which forces the recovery to replay all the WAL available, so this
commit makes sure that the local copy of minRecoveryPoint from the
control file is initialized properly and stays as it is while crash
recovery is performed. Once switching to archive recovery or if crash
recovery finishes, then the local copy minRecoveryPoint can be safely
updated.
Pavan Deolasee has reported and diagnosed the failure in the first

When deleting pages the nbtree code has to walk through siblings of a
tree node. When those sibling links are corrupted that can lead to
endless loops - which are currently not interruptible. This is

Thus add interrupt checks to appropriate places in such

Backpatch: 9.4-
When multiple relations are deleted at the same transaction,
the files of those relations are deleted by one call to smgrdounlinkall(),
which leads to scan whole shared_buffers only one time. OTOH,
previously, during recovery, smgrdounlink() (not smgrdounlinkall()) was
called for each file to delete, which led to scan shared_buffers
multiple times. Obviously this could cause to increase the WAL replay
time very much especially when shared_buffers was huge.
To alleviate this situation, this commit changes the recovery so that
it also calls smgrdounlinkall() only one time to delete multiple

As added in 1de09ad8eb the new functions
all accept signed integers as parameters. That's not great, because
it's perfectly reasonable to call them with unsigned parameters.
Unfortunately unsigned to signed conversion is not well defined, when
exceeding the range of the signed value. That's presently not a
practical issue in postgres (among other reasons because we force
gcc's hand with -fwrapv). But it's clearly not quite right.
Thus change the signatures to accept unsigned integers instead, signed
to unsigned conversion is always well defined. Also change the
backward compat pq_sendint() - while it's deprecated it seems better
to be consistent.

Two closely related bugs are fixed. First, xmin of logical slots was
advanced too early. During xl_running_xacts processing, xmin of the
slot was set to the oldest running xid in the record, but that's wrong:
actually, snapshots which will be used for not-yet-replayed transactions
might consider older txns as running too, so we need to keep xmin back
for them. The problem wasn't noticed earlier because DDL which allows
to delete tuple (set xmax) while some another not-yet-committed
transaction looks at it is pretty rare, if not unique: e.g. all forms of
ALTER TABLE which change schema acquire ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock
conflicting with any inserts. The included test case (test_decoding's
oldest_xmin) uses ALTER of a composite type, which doesn't have such
interlocking.
To deal with this, we must be able to quickly retrieve oldest xmin
(oldest running xid among all assigned snapshots) from ReorderBuffer. To
fix, add another list of ReorderBufferTXNs to the reorderbuffer, where
transactions are sorted by base-snapshot-LSN. This is slightly
different from the existing (sorted by first-LSN) list, because a
transaction can have an earlier LSN but a later Xmin, if its first
record does not obtain an xmin (eg. xl_xact_assignment). Note this new
list doesn't fully replace the existing txn list: we still need that one
to prevent WAL recycling.
The second issue concerns SnapBuilder snapshots and subtransactions.
SnapBuildDistributeNewCatalogSnapshot never assigned a snapshot to a
transaction that is known to be a subtxn, which is good in the common
case that the top-level transaction already has one (no point in doing
so), but a bug otherwise. To fix, arrange to transfer the snapshot from
the subtxn to its top-level txn as soon as the kinship gets known.
test_decoding's snapshot_transfer verifies this.
Also, fix a minor memory leak: refcount of toplevel's old base snapshot
was not decremented when the snapshot is transferred from child.

find_appinfos_by_relids had quite a large overhead when the number of
items in the append_rel_list was high, as it had to trawl through the
append_rel_list looking for AppendRelInfos belonging to the given
childrelids. Since there can only be a single AppendRelInfo for each
child rel, it seems much better to store an array in PlannerInfo which
indexes these by child relid, making the function O(1) rather than O(N).
This function was only called once inside the planner, so just replace
that call with a lookup to the new array. find_childrel_appendrelinfo
is now unused and thus removed.

System calls mixed up in error code paths are causing two issues which
several code paths have not correctly handled:
1) For write() calls, sometimes the system may return less bytes than
what has been written without errno being set. Some paths were careful
enough to consider that case, and assumed that errno should be set to
ENOSPC, other calls missed that.
2) errno generated by a system call is overwritten by other system calls
which may succeed once an error code path is taken, causing what is
reported to the user to be incorrect.
This patch uses the brute-force approach of correcting all those code
paths. Some refactoring could happen in the future, but this is let as

According to the SQL standard, the context of XMLTABLE's XPath
row_expression is the document node of the XML input document, not the
root node. This becomes visible when a relative path rather than
absolute is used as row expression. Absolute paths is what was used in
original tests and docs (and the most common form used in examples
throughout the interwebs), which explains why this wasn't noticed
before.
Other functions such as xpath() and xpath_exists() also have this
problem. While not specified by the SQL standard, it would be pretty
odd to leave those functions to behave differently than XMLTABLE, so
change them too. However, this is a backwards-incompatible change.

Since their introduction, partition trees have been a bit lossy
regarding temporary relations. Inheritance trees respect the following
patterns:
1) a child relation can be temporary if the parent is permanent.
2) a child relation can be temporary if the parent is temporary.
3) a child relation cannot be permanent if the parent is temporary.
4) The use of temporary relations also imply that when both parent and
child need to be from the same sessions.
Partitions share many similar patterns with inheritance, however the
handling of the partition bounds make the situation a bit tricky for
case 1) as the partition code bases a lot of its lookup code upon
PartitionDesc which does not really look after relpersistence. This
causes for example a temporary partition created by session A to be
visible by another session B, preventing this session B to create an
extra partition which overlaps with the temporary one created by A with
a non-intuitive error message. There could be use-cases where mixing
permanent partitioned tables with temporary partitions make sense, but
that would be a new feature. Partitions respect 2), 3) and 4) already.
It is a bit depressing to see those error checks happening in
MergeAttributes() whose purpose is different, but that's left as future
refactoring work.

the non-standard ldap_sslinit() is used if WIN32 is defined. Per input

- HAVE_X509_GET_SIGNATURE_NID, added by 054e8c6c, which is used by
SCRAM's channel binding tls-server-end-point. Having this flag disabled
would cause this channel binding type to be unsupported for Windows

- HAVE_ASN1_STRING_GET0_DATA, added by 5c6df67, which is used to track
a new compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.0. This was missing from
pg_config.win32.h and is not enabled by default. HAVE_BIO_GET_DATA,
HAVE_OPENSSL_INIT_SSL and HAVE_BIO_METH_NEW gain the same treatment.
The second and third flags are enabled with this commit, which raises
the bar of OpenSSL support to 1.0.2 on Windows as a minimum. As this
is the LTS (long-time support) version of OpenSSL community and knowing
that all recent installers referred by OpenSSL upstream don't have
anymore 1.0.1 or older, we could live with that requirement. In order

above need to be enabled in pg_config.h.win32.

There seems little reason for the policy of throwing error if we
find a ref to something other than a hash or array. Recursively
look through the ref, instead. This makes the behavior in non-transform
cases comparable to what was already instantiated for jsonb_plperl.
Note that because we invoke any available transform function before
considering the ref case, it's up to each transform function whether
it wants to play along with this behavior or do something different.
Because the previous behavior was just to throw a useless error,
this seems unlikely to create any compatibility issues. Still, given
the lack of field complaints so far, seems best not to back-patch.

ProcedureCreate formerly threw an error if the function to be created
has one argument of composite type and the function name matches some
column of the composite type. This was a (very non-bulletproof) defense
against creating situations where f(x) and x.f are ambiguous. But we
don't really need such a defense in the wake of commit b97a3465d, which
allows us to deal with such situations fairly cleanly. This behavior
also created a dump-and-reload hazard, since a function might be
rejected if a conflicting column name had been added to the input
composite type later. Hence, let's just drop the check.

Postgres has traditionally considered the syntactic forms f(x) and x.f
to be equivalent, allowing tricks such as writing a function and then
using it as though it were a computed-on-demand column. However, our
behavior when both interpretations are feasible left something to be
desired: we always chose the column interpretation. This could lead
to very surprising results, as in a recent bug report from Neil Conway.
It also created a dump-and-reload hazard, since what was a function
call in a dumped view could get interpreted as a column reference
at reload, if a matching column name had been added to the underlying
table since the view was created.
What seems better, in ambiguous situations, is to prefer the choice
matching the syntactic form of the reference. This seems much less
astonishing in general, and it fixes the dump/reload hazard.
Although this could be called a bug fix, there have been few complaints
and there's some small risk of breaking applications that depend on the
old behavior, so no back-patch. It does seem reasonable to slip it
into v11, though.

When a standby's WAL receiver stops reading WAL from a WAL stream, it
writes data to the current WAL segment without having priorily zero'ed
the page currently written to, which can cause the WAL reader to read
junk data from a past recycled segment and then it would try to get a
record from it. While sanity checks in place provide most of the
protection needed, in some rare circumstances, with chances increasing
when a record header crosses a page boundary, then the startup process
could fail violently on an allocation failure, as follows:
FATAL: invalid memory alloc request size XXX
This is confusing for the user and also unhelpful as this requires in
the worst case a manual restart of the instance, impacting potentially
the availability of the cluster, and this also makes WAL data look like
it is in a corrupted state.
The chances of seeing failures are higher if the connection between the
standby and its root node is unstable, causing WAL pages to be written
in the middle. A couple of approaches have been discussed, like
zero-ing new WAL pages within the WAL receiver itself but this has the
disadvantage of impacting performance of any existing instances as this
breaks the sequential writes done by the WAL receiver. This commit
deals with the problem with a more simple approach, which has no
performance impact without reducing the detection of the problem: if a
record is found with a length higher than 1GB for backends, then do not
try any allocation and report a soft failure which will force the
standby to retry reading WAL. It could be possible that the allocation
call passes and that an unnecessary amount of memory is allocated,
however follow-up checks on records would just fail, making this
allocation short-lived anyway.
This patch owes a great deal to Tsunakawa Takayuki for reporting the
failure first, and then discussing a couple of potential approaches to
the problem.

the question.
While we could fix this by copying all the data in question at query
start, it seems better to just hold the relcache entry open for the
whole query.
While at it, improve the handling of support-function lookups: do that
once per query not once per pruning test. There's still something to be
desired here, in that we fail to exploit the possibility of caching data
across queries in the fn_extra fields of the relcache's FmgrInfo structs,
which could happen if we just used those structs in-place rather than
copying them. However, combining that with the possibility of per-query
lookups of cross-type comparison functions seems to require changes in the
APIs of a lot of the pruning support functions, so it's too invasive to
consider as part of this patch. A win would ensue only for complex

Per offline report from Mike Blackwell.
When vacuum processes a relation it uses the corresponding relcache
entry's relfrozenxid / relminmxid as a cutoff for when to remove
tuples etc. Unfortunately for nailed relations (i.e. critical system
catalogs) bugs could frequently lead to the corresponding relcache
entry being stale.
This set of bugs could cause actual data corruption as vacuum would
potentially not remove the correct row versions, potentially reviving
them at a later point. After 699bf7d05c some corruptions in this vein
were prevented, but the additional error checks could also trigger
spuriously. Examples of such errors are:
ERROR: found xmin ... from before relfrozenxid ...
and
ERROR: found multixact ... from before relminmxid ...
To be caused by this bug the errors have to occur on system catalog
tables.
The two bugs are:
1) Invalidations for nailed relations were ignored, based on the
theory that the relcache entry for such tables doesn't
change. Which is largely true, except for fields like relfrozenxid
etc. This means that changes to relations vacuumed in other
sessions weren't picked up by already existing sessions. Luckily
autovacuum doesn't have particularly longrunning sessions.
2) For shared *and* nailed relations, the shared relcache init file
was never invalidated while running. That means that for such
tables (e.g. pg_authid, pg_database) it's not just already existing
sessions that are affected, but even new connections are as well.
That explains why the reports usually were about pg_authid et. al.
To fix 1), revalidate the rd_rel portion of a relcache entry when
invalid. This implies a bit of extra complexity to deal with
bootstrapping, but it's not too bad. The fix for 2) is simpler,
simply always remove both the shared and local init files.

Starting with commit f0e44751d7, ExecConstraints was in charge of
running the partition constraint; commit 19c47e7c82 modified that so
that caller could request to skip that checking depending on some
conditions, but that commit and 15ce775faa together introduced a small
bug there which caused ExecInsert to request skipping the constraint
check but have this not be honored -- in effect doing the check twice.
This could have been fixed in a very small patch, but on further
analysis of the involved function and its callsites, it turns out to be
simpler to give the responsibility of checking the partition constraint
fully to the caller, and return ExecConstraints to its original
(pre-partitioning) shape where it only checked tuple descriptor-related
constraints. Each caller must do partition constraint checking on its
own schedule, which is more convenient after commit 2f17844104 anyway.

Also add a function that centralizes the logic for locating all our perl
files and use it in pgperlcritic and pgperltidy as well as the new
pgperlcheck.
The previous coding just ignored pruning constraints that compare a
partition key to a null-valued expression. This is silly, since really
what we can do there is conclude that all partitions are rejected: the
pruning operator is known strict so the comparison must always fail.
This also fixes the logic to not ignore constisnull for a Const comparison
value. That's probably an unreachable case, since the planner would
normally have simplified away a strict operator with a constant-null input.
But this code has no business assuming that.

A review of the code has showed up a couple of issues fixed by this
commit:
- Physical slots have been using the confirmed LSN position as a start
comparison point which is always 0/0, instead use the restart LSN
position (logical slots need to use the confirmed LSN position, which
was correct).
- The actual slot update was incorrect for both physical and logical
slots. Physical slots need to use their restart_lsn as base comparison
point (confirmed_flush was used because of previous point), and logical
slots need to begin reading WAL from restart_lsn (confirmed_flush was
used as well), while confirmed_flush is compiled depending on the
decoding context and record read, and is the LSN position returned back
to the caller.
- Never return 0/0 if a slot cannot be advanced. This way, if a slot is
advanced while the activity is idle, then the same position is returned
to the caller over and over without raising an error. Instead return
the LSN the slot has been advanced to. With repetitive calls, the same
position is returned hence caller can directly monitor the difference in
progress in bytes by doing simply LSN difference calculations, which
should be monotonic.
Note that as the slot is owned by the backend advancing it, then the
read of those fields is fine lock-less, while updates need to happen
while the slot mutex is held, so fix that on the way as well. Other
locks for in-memory data of replication slots have been already fixed
previously.
Some of those issues have been pointed out by Petr and Simon during the
patch, while I noticed some of them after looking at the code. This
also visibly takes of a recently-discovered bug causing assertion
failures which can be triggered by a two-step slot forwarding which
first advanced the slot to a WAL page boundary and secondly advanced it
to the latest position, say 'FF/FFFFFFF' to make sure that the newest
LSN is used as forward point. It would have been nice to drop a test
for that, but the set of operators working on pg_lsn limits it, so this
is left for a future exercise.

While debugging issues on HEAD for the new slot forwarding feature of
Postgres 11, some monitoring of the code surrounding in-memory slot data
has proved that the lock handling may cause inconsistent data to be read
by read-only callers of slot functions, particularly
pg_get_replication_slots() which fetches data for the system view
pg_replication_slots, or modules looking directly at slot information.
The code paths involved in those problems concern logical decoding
initialization (down to 9.4) and WAL reservation for slots (new as of
10).
A set of comments documenting all the lock handlings, particularly the
dependency with LW locks for slots and the in_use flag as well as the
internal mutex lock is added, based on a suggested by Simon Riggs.
Some of the fixed code exists down to 9.4 where WAL decoding has been
introduced, but as those race conditions are really unlikely going to
happen as those concern code paths for slot and decoding creation, just

This complies with the perlcritic policy

To distinguish SQL statements that are INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from other
ones, exec_stmt_execsql looked at the post-rewrite form of the statement
rather than the original. This is problematic because it did that only
during first execution of the statement (in a session), but the correct
answer could change later due to addition or removal of DO INSTEAD rules
during the session. That could lead to an Assert failure, as reported
by Tushar Ahuja and Robert Haas. In non-assert builds, there's a hazard
that we would fail to enforce STRICT behavior when we'd be expected to.
That would happen if an initially present DO INSTEAD, that replaced the
original statement with one of a different type, were removed; after that
the statement should act "normally", including strictness enforcement, but
it didn't. (The converse case of enforcing strictness when we shouldn't
doesn't seem to be a hazard, as addition of a DO INSTEAD that changes the
statement type would always lead to acting as though the statement returned
zero rows, so that the strictness error could not fire.)
To fix, inspect the original form of the statement not the post-rewrite
form, making it valid to assume the answer can't change intra-session.
This should lead to the same answer in every case except when there is a
DO INSTEAD that changes the statement type; we will now set mod_stmt=true
anyway, while we would not have done so before. That breaks the Assert
in the SPI_OK_REWRITTEN code path, which expected the latter behavior.
It might be all right to assert mod_stmt rather than !mod_stmt there,
but I'm not entirely convinced that that'd always hold, so just remove
the assertion altogether.
This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

Print columns as "column C of <relation>" rather than "<relation> column

getObjectDescription and getObjectIdentity failed to schema-qualify

accidentally works for some (all?) extant callers but is clearly not the
intended API. Somebody had also not gotten the memo that the output of
getObjectIdentity is not to be translated.
To fix getObjectDescription, I made it call getRelationDescription, which
required refactoring the translatable string for the case, but is more
future-proof in case we ever publish relations that aren't plain tables.
While at it, I made the English output look like "publication of table X

Buildfarm member dromedary is still unhappy about the recently-added
ecpg "long long" tests. The reason turns out to be that it includes
"-ansi" in its CFLAGS, and in their infinite wisdom Apple have decided
to hide the declarations of strtoll/strtoull in C89-compliant builds.
(I find it pretty curious that they hide those function declarations
when you can nonetheless declare a "long long" variable, but anyway
that is their behavior, both on dromedary's obsolete macOS version and
the newest and shiniest.) As a result, gcc assumes these functions
return "int", leading naturally to wrong results.
(Looking at dromedary's past build results, it's evident that this
problem also breaks pg_strtouint64() on 32-bit platforms; but we
evidently have no regression tests that exercise that function with
values above 32 bits.)
To fix, supply declarations for these functions when the platform
provides the functions but not the declarations, using the same type
of mechanism as we use for some other similar cases.

In commit 6bdf1303b, we ensured that power()/^ for float8 would honor
the NaN behaviors specified by POSIX standards released in this century,
ie NaN ^ 0 = 1 and 1 ^ NaN = 1. However, numeric_power() was not
touched and continued to follow the once-common behavior that every
case involving NaN input produces NaN. For consistency, let's switch
the numeric behavior to the modern spec in the same release that ensures
that behavior for float8.
(Note that while 6bdf1303b was initially back-patched, we later undid
that, concluding that any behavioral change should appear only in v11.)

Up to now, it's been safe for plpgsql to store TOAST pointers in its
variables because the ActiveSnapshot for whatever query called the plpgsql
function will surely protect such TOAST values from being vacuumed away,
even if the owning table rows are committed dead. With the introduction of
procedures, that assumption is no longer good in "non atomic" executions
of plpgsql code. We adopt the slightly brute-force solution of detoasting
all TOAST pointers at the time they are stored into variables, if we're in
a non-atomic context, just in case the owning row goes away.
Some care is needed to avoid long-term memory leaks, since plpgsql tends
to run with CurrentMemoryContext pointing to its call-lifespan context,
but we shouldn't assume that no memory is leaked by heap_tuple_fetch_attr.
In plpgsql proper, we can do the detoasting work in the "eval_mcontext".
Most of the code thrashing here is due to the need to add this capability
to expandedrecord.c as well as plpgsql proper. In expandedrecord.c,
we can't assume that the caller's context is short-lived, so make use of
the short-term sub-context that was already invented for checking domain
constraints. In view of this repurposing, it seems good to rename that
variable and associated code from "domain_check_cxt" to "short_term_cxt".

canonicalize_ec_expression() is supposed to agree with coerce_type() as to
whether a RelabelType should be inserted to make a subexpression be valid
input for the operators of a given opclass. However, it did the wrong
thing with named-composite-type inputs to record_eq(): it put in a
RelabelType to RECORDOID, which the parser doesn't. In some cases this was
harmless because all code paths involving a particular equivalence class
did the same thing, but in other cases this would result in failing to
recognize a composite-type expression as being a member of an equivalence
class that it actually is a member of. The most obvious bad effect was to
fail to recognize that an index on a composite column could provide the
sort order needed for a mergejoin on that column, as reported by Teodor
Sigaev. I think there might be other, subtler, cases that result in
misoptimization. It also seems possible that an unwanted RelabelType
would sometimes get into an emitted plan --- but because record_eq and
friends don't examine the declared type of their input expressions, that
would not create any visible problems.
To fix, just treat RECORDOID as if it were a polymorphic type, which in
some sense it is. We might want to consider formalizing that a bit more
someday, but for the moment this seems to be the only place where an
IsPolymorphicType() test ought to include RECORDOID as well.
This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported

Previously, we passed the toplevel PlannerInfo, but we actually want

The impact of VARIADIC on the combine/serialize/deserialize support
functions of an aggregate wasn't thought through carefully. There is
actually no impact, because variadicity isn't passed through to these
functions (and it doesn't seem like it would need to be). However,
lookup_agg_function was mistakenly told to check things as though it were
passed through. The net result was that it was impossible to declare an
aggregate that had both VARIADIC input and parallelism support functions.
In passing, fix a runtime check in nodeAgg.c for the combine function's

Creating indexes on foreign tables is already forbidden, but local

Another school of thought says to allow the index to be created if it's

DST law changes in North Korea. Redefinition of "daylight savings" in
Ireland, as well as for some past years in Namibia and Czechoslovakia.
Additional historical corrections for Czechoslovakia.
With this change, the IANA database models Irish timekeeping as following
"standard time" in summer, and "daylight savings" in winter, so that the
daylight savings offset is one hour behind standard time not one hour
ahead. This does not change their UTC offset (+1:00 in summer, 0:00 in
winter) nor their timezone abbreviations (IST in summer, GMT in winter),
though now "IST" is more correctly read as "Irish Standard Time" not "Irish
Summer Time". However, the "is_dst" column in the pg_timezone_names view
will now be true in winter and false in summer for the Europe/Dublin zone.
Similar changes were made for Namibia between 1994 and 2017, and for
Czechoslovakia between 1946 and 1947.
So far as I can find, no Postgres internal logic cares about which way
tm_isdst is reported; in particular, since commit b2cbced9e we do not
rely on it to decide how to interpret ambiguous timestamps during DST
transitions. So I don't think this change will affect any Postgres
behavior other than the timezone-view outputs.

The vertical tightness settings collapse vertical whitespace between

This can make data structures in particular harder to read, and is not
very consistent with our style in non-Perl code. This patch restricts
that setting to parentheses only, and reformats all the perl code

The regexes used in 102_vacuumdb_stages.pl to check the postmaster log
for expected output contained several places with ".*.*", which is
underdetermined and can cause exponential runtime growth in Perl's regex
matcher (since it's not bright enough not to waste time seeing whether
different splits of the same substring would allow a match). We were
fortunate that the amount of text in the postmaster log was generally not
enough to make the runtime go to the moon; although commit 6271fceb8 had
been on the hairy edge of an obvious problem, thanks to its increasing the
default log verbosity to DEBUG1. Experimentation shows that anyone who
tried to run this test case with an even higher log verbosity would have
been in for serious pain. But even at default logging level, fixing this
saves several hundred ms on my workstation, more on slower buildfarm
members.
Remove the extra ".*"s, restoring more-or-less-linear matching speed.

While poking into initdb's performance, I noticed that this query
wasn't being done very intelligently. By forcing it to execute
obj_description() for each pg_proc/pg_operator join row, we were
essentially setting up a nestloop join to pg_description, which
is not a bright query plan when there are hundreds of outer rows.
Convert the check for a "deprecated" operator into a NOT EXISTS
so that it can be done as a hashed antijoin. On my workstation
this reduces the time for this query from ~ 35ms to ~ 10ms.
Which is not a huge win, but it adds up over buildfarm runs.
In passing, insert forced query breaks (\n\n, in single-user mode)
after each SQL-query file that initdb sources, and after some
relatively new queries in setup_privileges(). This doesn't make
a lot of difference normally, but it will result in briefer, saner
error messages if anything goes wrong.
Brown-paper-bag bug in commit 7c91a0364: when we rearranged the placement
of "reltuples += 1" statements, we missed including one in this code path.
The net effect of that was that CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY would set the
table's pg_class.reltuples to zero, as would index builds done during
bootstrap mode. (It seems like parallel index builds ought to fail
similarly, but they don't, perhaps because reltuples is computed in some
other way. You certainly couldn't figure that out from the abysmally
underdocumented parallelism code in this area.)
I was led to this by wondering why initdb seemed to have slowed down as
a result of 7c91a0364, as is evident in the buildfarm's timing history.
The reason is that every system catalog with indexes had pg_class.reltuples
= 0 after bootstrap, causing the planner to make some terrible choices for
queries in the post-bootstrap steps. On my workstation, this fix causes
the runtime of "initdb -N" to drop from ~2.0 sec to ~1.4 sec, which is
almost though not quite back to where it was in v10. That's not much of
a deal for production use perhaps, but it makes a noticeable difference
for buildfarm and "make check-world" runs, which do a lot of initdbs.
In Catalog.pm, mark eval of a string instead of a block as allowed.
Disallow perlcritic completely in Gen_dummy_probes.pl, as it's
generated code.
Protect a couple of lines in plperl code from perltidy, so that the
annotation for perlcritic stays on the same line as the construct it
would otherwise object to.
Commit 6271fceb8 changed PostgresNode.pm to force log_min_messages = debug1
in all TAP tests, without any discussion and without a concrete need for

that may be due to poorly-written regexes), and for certain it's bloating
the buildfarm logs. Revert the change.

Mark Dilger pointed out that the bootstrap parser does not allow
any of its keywords to appear as column values unless they're quoted,
and proposed dealing with that by quoting such values in genbki.pl.
Looking closer, though, we also have that problem with respect to table,
column, and type names appearing in the .bki file: the parser would fail
if any of those matched any of its keywords. While so far there have
been no conflicts (that I've heard of), this seems like a booby trap
waiting to catch somebody. Rather than clutter genbki.pl with enough
quoting logic to handle all that, let's make the bootstrap parser grow
up a little bit and treat its keywords as unreserved.
Experimentation shows that it's fairly easy to do so with the exception
of _null_, which I don't have a big problem with keeping as a reserved
word. The only change needed is that we can't have the "close" command
take an optional table name: it has to either require or forbid the
table name to avoid shift/reduce conflicts. genbki.pl has historically
always included the table name, so I took that option.
The implementation has bootscanner.l passing forward the string value
of each keyword, in case bootparse.y needs that. This avoids needing to
know the precise spelling of each keyword in bootparse.y, which is good
because that's not always obvious from the token name.

This reverts commit 55e0e45817.
It's served its purpose of demonstrating what was wrong on
buildfarm member opossum. We could consider putting some kind
of single-purpose hack into ftod() to make the test pass there;
but I don't think it's worth the trouble, since there are surely
many other places whether this platform bug could manifest.
In commit 8b29e88cd, I'd dithered about whether to make
in_range_float4_float8 be a standalone copy of the float in-range logic
or have it punt to in_range_float8_float8. I went with the latter, which
saves code space though at the cost of performance and readability.
However, it emerges that this tickles a compiler or hardware bug on
buildfarm member opossum. Test results from commit 55e0e4581 show
conclusively that widening a float4 NaN to float8 produces Inf, not NaN,
on that machine; which accounts perfectly for the window RANGE test
failures it's been showing. We can dodge this problem by making
in_range_float4_float8 be an independent function, so that it checks
for NaN inputs before widening them.
Ordinarily I'd not be very excited about working around such obviously
broken functionality; but given that this was a judgment call to begin
with, I don't mind reversing it.
If a continuation record is split so that its first half has already been
removed from the master, and is only present in pg_wal, and there is a
recycled WAL segment in the standby server that looks like it would
contain the second half, recovery would get stuck. The code in
XLogPageRead() incorrectly started streaming at the beginning of the
WAL record, even if we had already read the first page.
Backpatch to 9.4. In principle, older versions have the same problem, but
without replication slots, there was no straightforward mechanism to
prevent the master from recycling old WAL that was still needed by standby.
Without such a mechanism, I think it's reasonable to assume that there's
enough slack in how many old segments are kept around to not run into this,
or you have a WAL archive.

Dan Wood diagnosed a long-standing problem that pages containing tuples
that are locked by multixacts containing live lockers may spuriously end
up as candidates for getting their all-visible flag set. This has the
long-term effect that multixacts remain unfrozen; this may previously
pass undetected, but since commit XYZ it would be reported as
"ERROR: found multixact 134100944 from before relminmxid 192042633"
because when a later vacuum tries to freeze the page it detects that a
multixact that should have gotten frozen, wasn't.
Dan proposed a (correct) patch that simply sets a variable to its
correct value, after a bogus initialization. But, per discussion, it
seems better coding to avoid the bogus initializations altogether, since
they could give rise to more bugs later. Therefore this fix rewrites
the logic a little bit to avoid depending on the bogus initializations.
This bug was part of a family introduced in 9.6 by commit a892234f830e;

The principle behind the locking was not very well thought-out, and not
documented. Add a section in the README to explain how it's supposed to
work, and change the code so that it actually works that way.
This fixes two bugs:
1. If fast update was turned on concurrently, subsequent inserts to the
pending list would not conflict with predicate locks that were acquired
earlier, on entry pages. The included 'predicate-gin-fastupdate' test
demonstrates that. To fix, make all scans acquire a predicate lock on
the metapage. That lock represents a scan of the pending list, whether
or not there is a pending list at the moment. Forget about the
optimization to skip locking/checking for locks, when fastupdate=off.
2. If a scan finds no match, it still needs to lock the entry page. The
point of predicate locks is to lock the gabs between values, whether
or not there is a match. The included 'predicate-gin-nomatch' test
tests that case.
In addition to those two bug fixes, this removes some unnecessary locking,
following the principle laid out in the README. Because all items in
a posting tree have the same key value, a lock on the posting tree root is
enough to cover all the items. (With a very large posting tree, it would
possibly be better to lock the posting tree leaf pages instead, so that a
"skip scan" with a query like "A & B", you could avoid unnecessary conflict
if a new tuple is inserted with A but !B. But let's keep this simple.)
Also, some spelling fixes.

If a particular output file already exists with the contents it should

In builds using --enable-depend, this can avoid the need to recompile .c

it saves much of anything for users of ccache; but the cost of doing the

In itself, this is just much-needed cleanup with little practical effect.
However, by decoupling these makefile rules from the timestamps of the

at present, but it's at least a latent bug.
* Use DatumGetByteaPP not DatumGetByteaP to save a detoasting cycle
for short stats values; the deserialize function has to be, and is,
prepared for short-header values since its other caller uses PP.
* Use a test-and-elog for null stats values in both functions, rather
than a test-and-elog in one case and an Assert in the other. Perhaps
Asserts would be sufficient in both cases, but I don't see a good
argument for them being different.
* Minor cosmetic changes to make these functions more visibly alike.
Backpatch to v10 where this code came in.

There were three related issues:
* BufFileAppend() incorrectly reset the seek position on the 'source' file.
As a result, if you had called BufFileRead() on the file before calling
BufFileAppend(), it got confused, and subsequent calls would read/write
at wrong position.
* BufFileSize() did not work with files opened with BufFileOpenShared().
* FileGetSize() only worked on temporary files.
To fix, change the way BufFileSize() works so that it works on shared
files. Remove FileGetSize() altogether, as it's no longer needed. Remove
buffilesize from TapeShare struct, as the leader process can simply call
BufFileSize() to get the tape's size, there's no need to pass it through
shared memory anymore.

Tom's earlier commit in 41c912cad1 didn't update a few cases that
are only encountered with the non-standard --with-llvm config
flag. Additionally there's also one case that appears to be a
deficiency in gcc's (up to trunk as of a few days ago) detection of
"fallthrough" comments - changing the placement slightly fixes that.

Recent gcc can warn about switch-case fall throughs that are not
explicitly labeled as intentional. This seems like a good thing,
so clean up the warnings exposed thereby by labeling all such
cases with comments that gcc will recognize.
In files that already had one or more suitable comments, I generally
matched the existing style of those. Otherwise I went with
/* FALLTHROUGH */, which is one of the spellings approved at the
more-restrictive-than-default level -Wimplicit-fallthrough=4.
(At the default level you can also spell it /* FALL ?THRU */,
and it's not picky about case. What you can't do is include
additional text in the same comment, so some existing comments
containing versions of this aren't good enough.)
Testing with gcc 8.0.1 (Fedora 28's current version), I found that
I also had to put explicit "break"s after elog(ERROR) or ereport(ERROR);
apparently, for this purpose gcc doesn't recognize that those don't
return. That seems like possibly a gcc bug, but it's fine because
in most places we did that anyway; so this amounts to a visit from the
style police.

Previously a tuple that has been moved to a different partition (see
f16241bef7), set the block number on the old tuple to an invalid
value to indicate that fact. But the tuple offset was left
untouched. That turned out to trigger a wal_consistency_checking
failure as reported by Peter Geoghegan, as the offset wasn't
always overwritten during WAL replay.
Heikki observed that we're wasting valuable data by not putting
information also in the offset. Thus set that to
MovedPartitionsOffsetNumber when a tuple indicates it has moved.
We continue to set the block number to MovedPartitionsBlockNumber, as
that seems more likely to cause problems for code not updated to know
about moved tuples.
As t_ctid's offset number is now always set, this refinement also
fixes the wal_consistency_checking issue.
This technically is a minor disk format break, with previously created
moved tuples not being recognized anymore. But since there not even
has been a beta release since f16241bef7c...

Without these fixes, changes to the inserted tuple made by remote
triggers are ignored when building local RETURNING tuples.
In the core code, call ExecInitRoutingInfo at a later point from
within ExecInitPartitionInfo so that the FDW callback gets invoked
after the returning list has been built. But move CheckValidResultRel
out of ExecInitRoutingInfo so that it can happen at an earlier stage.
In postgres_fdw, refactor assorted deparsing functions to work with
the RTE rather than the PlannerInfo, which saves us having to
construct a fake PlannerInfo in cases where we don't have a real one.
Then, we can pass down a constructed RTE that yields the correct
deparse result when no real one exists. Unfortunately, this
necessitates a hack that understands how the core code manages RT
indexes for update tuple routing, which is ugly, but we don't have a
better idea right now.

Revert the map/unmap dance I tried in commit 73042b8d1; that helps
not at all.
Instead, speculate that the unwanted allocation is being done on
another thread, and thus timing variations explain the apparent
unpredictability. Temporarily add a 1-second sleep before the
VirtualFree call, in hopes that any such other threads will
quiesce and not jog our elbow.
This is obviously not a desirable long-term fix, but as a means of
investigation it seems useful.

The idea here is to get Windows' userspace infrastructure to allocate
whatever space it needs for MapViewOfFileEx() before we release the
locked-down space that we want to map the shared memory block into.
This is a fairly brute-force attempt, and would likely (for example)
fail with large shared memory on 32-bit Windows. We could perhaps
ameliorate that by mapping only part of the shared memory block in
this way, but for the moment I just want to see if this approach
will fix dory's problem.

Rather than elog'ing immediately, push the map data into a preallocated
StringInfo. Perhaps this will prevent some of the mid-operation
allocations that are evidently happening now.

The code previously undefined isnan because of a compiler warning on
MinGW. Since we now need to use isnan, we can't do that anymore.
We might need a different solution if the compiler warning is too
annoying.
When due to publication configuration, a TRUNCATE change ends up with
zero tables to be published, don't send the message out, just skip it.
It's not wrong, but obviously useless overhead.
This code is evidently allocating memory and thus confusing matters
even more. Let's see whether we can learn anything with
just VirtualQuery.

This morning's results from buildfarm member dory make it pretty
clear that something is getting mapped into the just-freed space,
but not what that something is. Replace my minimalistic probes
with a full dump of the process address space and module space,
based on Noah's work at

This is all (probably) to get reverted once we have fixed the
problem, but for now we need information.

While looking at a recent buildfarm failure in the ecpg tests, I wondered
why the pg_regress output claimed the stderr part of the test failed, when
the regression diffs were clearly for the stdout part. Looking into it,
the reason is that pg_regress.c's logic for iterating over three parallel
lists is wrong, and has been wrong since it was written: it advances the
"tag" pointer at a different place in the loop than the other two pointers.
Fix that.
After some thought about the info captured so far, it seems possible
that MapViewOfFileEx is itself causing some DLL to get loaded into
the space just freed by VirtualFree. The previous commit here didn't
capture enough info to really prove the case for that, so let's add
one more VirtualQuery in between those steps. Also, be sure to
capture the post-Map state before we emit any log entries, just in
case elog() is invoking some code not previously loaded.

Buildfarm results show that the modern POSIX rule that 1 ^ NaN = 1 is not
honored on *BSD until relatively recently, and really old platforms don't
believe that NaN ^ 0 = 1 either. (This is unsurprising, perhaps, since
SUSv2 doesn't require either behavior.) In hopes of getting to platform
independent behavior, let's deal with all the NaN-input cases explicitly
in dpow().
Note that numeric_power() doesn't know either of these special cases.
But since that behavior is platform-independent, I think it should be
addressed separately, and probably not back-patched.

DST law changes in Palestine and Antarctica (Casey Station). Historical
corrections for Portugal and its colonies, as well as Enderbury, Jamaica,
Turks & Caicos Islands, and Uruguay.
Per spec, the result of power() should be NaN if either input is NaN.
It appears that on some versions of Windows, the libc function does
return NaN, but it also sets errno = EDOM, confusing our code that
attempts to work around shortcomings of other platforms. Hence, add
guard tests to avoid substituting a wrong result for the right one.
It's been like this for a long time (and the odd behavior only appears
in older MSVC releases, too) so back-patch to all supported branches.

The point of this is not really to remove redundancy in pg_language.dat;
with only three entries, it's hardly worth it. Rather, it is to get
to a point where there are exactly zero hard-coded numeric pg_proc OID
references in the catalog .dat files. The lanvalidator column was the
only remaining location of such references, and it seems like a good
thing for future-proofing reasons to make it not be a special case.
There are still a few places in the .dat files with numeric OID references
to other catalogs, but after review I don't see any that seem worth
changing at present. In each case there are just too few entries to make
it worth the trouble to create lookup infrastructure.
This doesn't change the emitted postgres.bki file, so no catversion bump.
This change makes this module act more like most of our other low-level
resource management modules. It's a caller error if something is not
explicitly closed by the end of a successful transaction, so issue
a WARNING about it. This would not actually have caught the file leak
bug fixed in commit 231bcd080, because that was in a transaction-abort
path; but it still seems like a good, and pretty cheap, cross-check.

Use the same code we already applied in duplicate_oids and unused_oids
to let this script find Catalog.pm without help. This removes the need
to supply a -I switch in most cases.
Also, mark the script executable, again to follow the precedent of
duplicate_oids and unused_oids. Now you can just do
"./reformat_dat_file.pl pg_proc.dat"
if you want to reformat only one or a few .dat files rather than all.
It'd be possible to remove the -I switches in the Makefile's convenience
targets, but I chose to leave them: they don't hurt anything, and it's
possible that in weird VPATH situations they might be of value.
I (tgl) originally coded the special case for pg_proc.pronargs as
though it were a kind of default value. It seems better though to
treat computable columns as an independent concern: this makes the
code clearer, and probably a bit faster too since we needn't do
work inside the per-column loop.
Improve related comments, as well, in the expectation that there
might be more cases like this in future.

Apparently $(foreach ... $(call install_llvm_module,...)) doesn't work
too well without a blank line ending the install_llvm_module macro.
The previous coding hackishly dodged this problem with some parens,
but that's not really a good solution because make misunderstands
where the command boundaries are that way.

Don't put comments inside the macros, per complaint from Michael Paquier.

Add some debug printouts focused on the idea that MapViewOfFileEx might
be rounding its virtual memory allocation up more than we expect (and,
in particular, more than VirtualAllocEx does).
Once we've seen what this reports in one of the failures on buildfarm
members dory or jacana, we might revert this ... or perhaps just
decrease the log level.
