ecpglib attempts to force the LC_NUMERIC locale to "C" while reading
server output, to avoid problems with strtod() and related functions.
Historically it's just issued setlocale() calls to do that, but that
has major problems if we're in a threaded application. setlocale()
itself is not required by POSIX to be thread-safe (and indeed is not,
on recent OpenBSD). Moreover, its effects are process-wide, so that
we could cause unexpected results in other threads, or another thread
could change our setting.
On platforms having uselocale(), which is required by POSIX:2008,
we can avoid these problems by using uselocale() instead. Windows
goes its own way as usual, but we can make it safe by using
_configthreadlocale(). Platforms having neither continue to use the
old code, but that should be pretty much nobody among current systems.
(Subsequent buildfarm results show that recent NetBSD versions still
lack uselocale(), but it's not a big problem because they also do not
support non-"C" settings for LC_NUMERIC.)

Detaching a partition from a partitioned table that's constrained by
foreign keys requires additional action triggers on the referenced side;
otherwise, DELETE/UPDATE actions there fail to notice rows in the table
that was partition, and so are incorrectly allowed through. With this
commit, those triggers are now created. Conversely, when a table that
has a foreign key is attached as a partition to a table that also has
the same foreign key, those action triggers are no longer needed, so we
remove them.
Add a minimal test case verifying (part of) this.

Back in commit 100340e2dc, we made relcache entries keep lists of the
foreign keys applying to the relation -- but we forgot to update
CacheInvalidateHeapTuple to flush those entries when new FKs got created
or existing ones updated/deleted. No bugs appear to have been reported
that would be explained by this ommission, but I noticed the problem
while working on an unrelated bugfix which clearly showed it. Fix by
adding relcache flush on relevant foreign key changes.

Previously, in set_append_rel_size(), we generated tlists and EC members
for dummy children for possible use by partition-wise join, even if
partition-wise join was disabled or the top parent was not a partitioned
table, but adding such EC members causes noticeable planning speed
degradation for queries with certain kinds of join quals like
"(foo.x + bar.y) = constant" where foo and bar are partitioned tables in
cases where there are lots of dummy children, as the EC members lists
grow huge, especially for the ECs derived from such join quals, which
makes the search for the parent EC members in add_child_rel_equivalences()
very time-consuming. Postpone the work until such children are actually
involved in a partition-wise join.

Recent OpenBSD (at least 5.9 and up) has a version of getopt(3)
that will not cope with the "-:" spec we use to accept double-dash
options in postgres.c and postmaster.c. Admittedly, that's a hack
because POSIX only requires getopt() to allow alphanumeric option
characters. I have no desire to find another way, however, so
let's just do what we were already doing on Solaris: force use
of our own src/port/getopt.c implementation.
In passing, improve some of the comments around said implementation.

When creating a foreign key in a partitioned table, if some partitions
already have equivalent constraints, we wastefully create duplicates of
the constraints instead of attaching to the existing ones. That's
inconsistent with the de-duplication that is applied when a table is
attached as a partition. To fix, reuse the FK-cloning code instead of
having a separate code path.
Backpatch to Postgres 11. This is a subtle behavior change, but surely
a welcome one since there's no use in having duplicate foreign keys.

My commit 3de241dba8 introduced some code to create a clone of a
foreign key to a partition, but I put it in pg_constraint.c because it
was too close to the contents of the pg_constraint row. With the
previous commit that split out the constraint tuple deconstruction into
its own routine, it makes more sense to have the FK-cloning function in
tablecmds.c, mostly because its static subroutine can then be used by a
future bugfix.
My initial posting of this patch had this routine as static in
tablecmds.c, but sadly this function is already part of the Postgres 11
ABI as exported from pg_constraint.c, so keep it as exported also just
to avoid breaking any possible users of it.
My commit 3de241dba8 introduced some code (in tablecmds.c) to obtain
data from a pg_constraint row for a foreign key, that already existed in
ri_triggers.c. Split it out into its own routine in pg_constraint.c,
where it naturally belongs.
No functional code changes, only code movement.
Backpatch to pg11, because a future bugfix is simpler after this.

Attempting to use a temporary table within a two-phase transaction is
forbidden for ages. However, there have been uncovered grounds for
a couple of other object types and commands which work on temporary
objects with two-phase commit. In short, trying to create, lock or drop
an object on a temporary schema should not be authorized within a
two-phase transaction, as it would cause its state to create
dependencies with other sessions, causing all sorts of side effects with
the existing session or other sessions spawned later on trying to use
the same temporary schema name.
Regression tests are added to cover all the grounds found, the original
report mentioned function creation, but monitoring closer there are many
other patterns with LOCK, DROP or CREATE EXTENSION which are involved.
One of the symptoms resulting in combining both is that the session
which used the temporary schema is not able to shut down completely,
waiting for being able to drop the temporary schema, something that it
cannot complete because of the two-phase transaction involved with
temporary objects. In this case the client is able to disconnect but
the session remains alive on the backend-side, potentially blocking
connection backend slots from being used. Other problems reported could
also involve server crashes.
This is back-patched down to v10, which is where 9b013dc has introduced
MyXactFlags, something that this patch relies on.

Previously, parseCheckAggregates was run before
assign_query_collations, but this causes problems if any expression
has already had a collation assigned by some transform function (e.g.
transformCaseExpr) before parseCheckAggregates runs. The differing
collations would cause expressions not to be recognized as equal to
the ones in the GROUP BY clause, leading to spurious errors about
unaggregated column references.
The result was that CASE expr WHEN val ... would fail when "expr"
contained a GROUPING() expression or matched one of the group by
expressions, and where collatable types were involved; whereas the
supposedly identical CASE WHEN expr = val ... would succeed.
Backpatch all the way; this appears to have been wrong ever since
collations were introduced.

Some makefiles were trying to do this:
temp-install: EXTRA_INSTALL=contrib/test_decoding
but that no longer works as of commit aa019da52: the macro is now
consulted by the checkprep target, one level down, and apparently
gmake doesn't propagate such macro settings recursively.
The problem is masked since 42e61c774 because pgxs.mk also sets up
EXTRA_INSTALL, and correctly applies it to the checkprep target.
Unfortunately I'd not risked back-patching that to before v11.
Since aa019da52 was pushed back to v10, it broke test_decoding
there (the only module for which this actually makes a difference
at present).
Hence, back-patch 42e61c774 to v10. Also, remove some demonstrably
useless settings of EXTRA_INSTALL in v10 and v11 (they'd already

Up to now, createplan.c attempted to share PARAM_EXEC slots for
NestLoopParams across different plan levels, if the same underlying Var
was being fed down to different righthand-side subplan trees by different
NestLoops. This was, I think, more of an artifact of using subselect.c's
PlannerParamItem infrastructure than an explicit design goal, but anyway
that was the end result.
This works well enough as long as the plan tree is executing synchronously,
but the feature whereby Gather can execute the parallelized subplan locally
breaks it. An upper NestLoop node might execute for a row retrieved from
a parallel worker, and assign a value for a PARAM_EXEC slot from that row,
while the leader's copy of the parallelized subplan is suspended with a
different active value of the row the Var comes from. When control
eventually returns to the leader's subplan, it gets the wrong answers if
the same PARAM_EXEC slot is being used within the subplan, as reported
in bug #15577 from Bartosz Polnik.
This is pretty reminiscent of the problem fixed in commit 46c508fbc, and
the proper fix seems to be the same: don't try to share PARAM_EXEC slots
across different levels of controlling NestLoop nodes.
This requires decoupling NestLoopParam handling from PlannerParamItem
handling, although the logic remains somewhat similar. To avoid bizarre
division of labor between subselect.c and createplan.c, I decided to move
all the param-slot-assignment logic for both cases out of those files
and put it into a new file paramassign.c. Hopefully it's a bit better
documented now, too.
A regression test case for this might be nice, but we don't know a
test case that triggers the problem with a suitably small amount
of data.
Back-patch to 9.6 where we added Gather nodes. It's conceivable that
related problems exist in older branches; but without some evidence
for that, I'll leave the older branches alone.

Since approximately PostgreSQL 10, it is no longer required that
environment variables at installation time such as PERL, PYTHON, TCLSH
be "full path names", so change that phrasing in the installation
instructions. (The exact time of change appears to differ for PERL
and the others, but it works consistently in PostgreSQL 10.)
Also while we're here document the defaults for PERL and PYTHON, but
since the search list for TCLSH is so long, let's leave that out so we
don't need to maintain a copy of that list in the installation
instructions.
This was an oversight in commit 16828d5c. If the table is going to be
rewritten, we simply clear all the missing values from all the table's
attributes, since there will no longer be any rows with the attributes
missing. Otherwise, we repackage the missing value in an array
constructed with the new type specifications.
Backpatch to release 11.

For a long time, plpgsql has allowed trigger functions to parse
references to OLD and NEW even if the current trigger event type didn't
assign a value to one or the other variable; but actually executing such
a reference would fail. The v11 changes to use "expanded records" for
DTYPE_REC variables changed the behavior so that the unassigned variable
now reads as a null composite value. While this behavioral change was
more or less unintentional, it seems that leaving it like this is better
than adding code and complexity to be bug-compatible with the old way.
The change doesn't break any code that worked before, and it eliminates
a gotcha that often required extra code to work around.
Hence, update the docs to say that these variables are "null" not
"unassigned" when not relevant to the event type. And add a regression
test covering the behavior, so that we'll notice if we ever break it
again.

This patch changes the rule for whether or not a tuple seen by ANALYZE
should be included in its sample.
When we last touched this logic, in commit 51e1445f1, we weren't
thinking very hard about tuples being UPDATEd by a long-running
concurrent transaction. In such a case, we might see the pre-image as
either LIVE or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS depending on timing; and we might see
the post-image not at all, or as INSERT_IN_PROGRESS. Since the existing
code will not sample either DELETE_IN_PROGRESS or INSERT_IN_PROGRESS
tuples, this leads to concurrently-updated rows being omitted from the
sample entirely. That's not very helpful, and it's especially the wrong
thing if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back.
The right thing seems to be to sample DELETE_IN_PROGRESS rows just as if
they were live. This makes the "sample it" and "count it" decisions the
same, which seems good for consistency. It's clearly the right thing
if the concurrent transaction ends up rolling back; in effect, we are
sampling as though IN_PROGRESS transactions haven't happened yet.
Also, this combination of choices ensures maximum robustness against
the different combinations of whether and in which state we might see the
pre- and post-images of an update.
It's slightly annoying that we end up recording immediately-out-of-date
stats in the case where the transaction does commit, but on the other
hand the stats are fine for columns that didn't change in the update.
And the alternative of sampling INSERT_IN_PROGRESS rows instead seems
like a bad idea, because then the sampling would be inconsistent with
the way rows are counted for the stats report.

MinMaxExpr invokes the btree comparison function for its input datatype,

Isolation test suite of GIN predicate locking was criticized for being too slow,
especially under Valgrind. This commit is intended to accelerate it. Tests are
simplified in the following ways.
1) Amount of data is reduced. We're now close to the minimal amount of data,
which produces at least one posting tree and at least two pages of entry
tree.
2) Three isolation tests are merged into one.
3) Only one tuple is queried from posting tree. So, locking of index is the
same, but tuple locks are not propagated to relation lock. Also, it is
faster.
4) Test cases itself are simplified. Now each test case run just one INSERT
and one SELECT involving GIN, which either conflict or not.
