In detoast_attr_slice, VARSIZE_ANY was used to compute compressed length
of on-disk TOAST values. That's incorrect, because the varlena value may
be just a TOAST pointer, producing either bogus value or crashing.
This is likely why the code was crashing on big-endian machines before
540f316809 replaced the VARSIZE with VARSIZE_ANY, which however only
masked the issue.

types in a way similar to how parseRelOptions() works. They have never

Partitioned tables do not have relation options yet, but, similarly to
what's done for views which have their own parsing table, it could make
sense to introduce new parameters for some of the existing default ones
like fillfactor, autovacuum, etc. Splitting things has the advantage to
make the information stored in rd_options include only the necessary
information, reducing the amount of memory used for a relcache entry
with partitioned tables if new reloptions are introduced at this level.

This gets rid of our former behavior of forcibly downcasing
the postmaster's hostname list and truncating the elements to
NAMEDATALEN. In principle, DNS hostnames are case-insensitive
so the first behavior should be harmless, and server hostnames
are seldom long enough for the second behavior to be an issue.
But it's still dubious, and an easy fix is available: just use
SplitGUCList instead.
AFAICT, all other SplitIdentifierString calls in the backend are
OK: either the items actually are SQL identifiers, or they are
keywords that are short and case-insensitive.

Commit 6b76f1bb5 changed all the RADIUS auth parameters to be lists
rather than single values. But its use of SplitIdentifierString
to parse the list format was not very carefully thought through,
because that function thinks it's parsing SQL identifiers, which
means it will (a) downcase the strings and (b) truncate them to
be shorter than NAMEDATALEN. While downcasing should be harmless
for the server names and ports, it's just wrong for the shared
secrets, and probably for the NAS Identifier strings as well.
The truncation aspect is at least potentially a problem too,
though typical values for these parameters would fit in 63 bytes.
Fortunately, we now have a function SplitGUCList that is exactly
the same except for not doing the two unwanted things, so fixing
this is a trivial matter of calling that function instead.
While here, improve the documentation to show how to double-quote
the parameter values. I failed to resist the temptation to do
some copy-editing as well.

The TableFunc node (i.e., XMLTABLE) includes type and collation OIDs
that might not be referenced anywhere else in the expression tree,
so they need to be accounted for when extracting dependencies.
Fortunately, the practical effects of this are limited, since
(a) it's somewhat unlikely that people would be extracting
columns of non-builtin types from an XML document, and (b)
in many scenarios, the query would contain other references
to such types, or functions depending on them. However, it's
not hard to construct examples wherein the existing code lets
one drop a type used in XMLTABLE and thereby break a view.
This is evidently an original oversight in the XMLTABLE patch,
so back-patch to v10 where that came in.

pg_upgrade needs to check whether certain non-upgradable data types

We probably should have noticed this oversight while working on

This completes the task begun in commit 1408d5d86, to synchronize
ECPG's exported definitions with the definition of bool used by
c.h (and, therefore, the one actually in use in the ECPG library).
On practically all modern platforms, ecpglib.h will now just
include <stdbool.h>, which should surprise nobody anymore.
That removes a header-inclusion-order hazard for ECPG clients,
who previously might get build failures or unexpected behavior
depending on whether they'd included <stdbool.h> themselves,
and if so, whether before or after ecpglib.h.
On platforms where sizeof(_Bool) is not 1 (only old PPC-based
Mac systems, as far as I know), things are still messy, as
inclusion of <stdbool.h> could still break ECPG client code.
There doesn't seem to be any clean fix for that, and given the
probably-negligible population of users who would care anymore,
it's not clear we should go far out of our way to cope with it.
This change at least fixes some header-inclusion-order hazards
for our own code, since c.h and ecpglib.h previously disagreed
on whether bool should be char or unsigned char.
To implement this with minimal invasion of ECPG client namespace,
move the choice of whether to rely on <stdbool.h> into configure,
and have it export a configuration symbol PG_USE_STDBOOL.
ecpglib.h no longer exports definitions for TRUE and FALSE,
only their lowercase brethren. We could undo that if we get
push-back about it.
Ideally we'd back-patch this as far as v11, which is where c.h
started to rely on <stdbool.h>. But the odds of creating problems
for formerly-working ECPG client code seem about as large as the
odds of fixing any non-working cases, so we'll just do this in HEAD.

This happens when we add a replica identity column on a subscriber
that does not yet exist on the publisher, according to the mapping
maintained by the subscriber. Code that checks whether the target
relation on the subscriber is updatable would check the replica
identity attribute bitmap with a column number -1, which would result
in an error. To fix, skip such columns in the bitmap lookup and
consider the relation not updatable. The result is consistent with
the rule that the replica identity columns on the subscriber must be a
subset of those on the publisher, since if the column doesn't exist on
the publisher, the column set on the subscriber can't be a subset.

nbtree index builds once stashed the "minimum key" for a page, which was
used as the basis of the pivot tuple that gets placed in the next level
up (i.e. the tuple that stores the downlink to the page in question).
It doesn't quite work that way anymore, so the "minimum key" terminology
now seems misleading (these days the minimum key is actually a straight
copy of the high key from the left sibling, which is a distinct thing in
subtle but important ways). Rename this concept to "low key". This
name is a lot clearer given that there is now a sharp distinction
between pivot and non-pivot tuples. Also remove comments that describe
obsolete details about how the minimum key concept used to work.
Rather than generating the minus infinity item for the leftmost page on
a level by copying the new item and truncating that copy, simply
allocate a small buffer. The old approach confusingly created the
impression that the new item had some kind of significance. This was
another artifact of how things used to work before commits 8224de4f and
dd299df8.
Declaring this in the client-visible header ecpglib.h was a pretty
poor decision. It's not meant to be application-callable (and if
it was, putting it outside the extern "C" { ... } wrapper means
that C++ clients would fail to call it). And the declaration would
not even compile for a client, anyway, since it would not have the
macro pg_attribute_format_arg(). Fortunately, it seems that no
clients have tried to include this header with ENABLE_NLS defined,
or we'd have gotten complaints about that. But we have no business
putting such a restriction on client code.
Move the declaration to ecpglib_extern.h, since in fact nothing
outside src/interfaces/ecpg/ecpglib/ needs to call it.
The practical effect of this is just that clients can now safely
#include ecpglib.h while having ENABLE_NLS defined, but that seems
like enough of a reason to back-patch it.

The sampling is configured using two new GUC parameters:

* log_statement_sample_rate - sample rate (0.0 - 1.0)
Only statements with duration exceeding log_min_duration_sample are
considered for sampling. To enable sampling, both those GUCs have to
be set correctly.
The existing log_min_duration_statement GUC has a higher priority, i.e.
statements with duration exceeding log_min_duration_statement will be

There's plenty places in frontend code that could benefit from a
string buffer implementation. Some because it yields simpler and
faster code, and some others because of the desire to share code
between backend and frontend.
While there is a string buffer implementation available to frontend
code, libpq's PQExpBuffer, it is clunkier than stringinfo, it
introduces a libpq dependency, doesn't allow for sharing between
frontend and backend code, and has a higher API/ABI stability
requirement due to being exposed via libpq.
Therefore it seems best to just making StringInfo being usable by
frontend code. There's not much to do for that, except for rewriting
two subsequent elog/ereport calls into others types of error
reporting, and deciding on a maximum string length.
For the maximum string size I decided to privately define MaxAllocSize
to the same value as used in the backend. It seems likely that we'll
want to reconsider this for both backend and frontend code in the not
too far away future.
For now I've left stringinfo.h in lib/, rather than common/, to reduce
the likelihood of unnecessary breakage. We could alternatively decide

For a long time (since commit aed378e8d) we have had a policy to log

collected a password from their user, so that logging the abandoned

are in fact *only* used to determine the ObjectType argument for
acl_error() calls.) It seems best to have them fall back to returning
OBJECT_TABLE in every case where they can't determine an object type
for a pg_class entry, so do that.
In passing, make some edits to alter.c to make it more obvious that
those calls of get_object_type() are used only for error reporting.
This might save a few cycles in the non-error code path, too.

Commit d25ea0127 got rid of what I thought were entirely unnecessary
derived child expressions in EquivalenceClasses for EC members that
mention multiple baserels. But it turns out that some of the child
expressions that code created are necessary for partitionwise joins,
else we fail to find matching pathkeys for Sort nodes. (This happens
only for certain shapes of the resulting plan; it may be that
partitionwise aggregation is also necessary to show the failure,
though I'm not sure of that.)
Reverting that commit entirely would be quite painful performance-wise
for large partition sets. So instead, add code that explicitly
generates child expressions that match only partitionwise child join
rels we have actually generated.
Per report from Justin Pryzby. (Amit Langote noticed the problem
earlier, though it's not clear if he recognized then that it could
result in a planner error, not merely failure to exploit partitionwise
join, in the code as-committed.) Back-patch to v12 where commit
d25ea0127 came in.

Historically, the code to build relation options has been shaped the
same way in multiple code paths by using a set of datums in input with
the options parsed with a static table which is then filled with the
option values. This introduces a new common routine in reloptions.c to
do most of the legwork for the in-core code paths.

The code only compared two triggers' names and namespaces (the latter
being the owning table's schema). This could result in falling back
to an OID-based sort of similarly-named triggers on different tables.
We prefer to avoid that, so add a comparison of the table names too.
(The sort order is thus table namespace, trigger name, table name,
which is a bit odd, but it doesn't seem worth contorting the code
to work around that.)

As the code stands, nEntries counts the number of ginEntryInsert()
calls, so that's what you end up with at the end of a GIN index build.
However, ginvacuumcleanup() recomputes nEntries as the number of
surviving leaf tuples, and that's generally consistent with the way that
gincostestimate() uses the value. So let's clearly define nEntries
as the number of leaf tuples, and therefore adjust ginEntryInsert() to
increment it only when we make a new one, not when we add TIDs into an
existing tuple or posting tree.
In practice this inconsistency probably has little impact, so I don't
feel a need to back-patch.

When using CREATE TABLE for a new partition, the partitioned indexes of
the parent are created automatically in a fashion similar to LIKE
INDEXES. The new partition and its parent use a mapping for attribute
numbers for this operation, and while the mapping was correctly built,
its length was defined as the number of attributes of the newly-created
child, and not the parent. If the parent includes dropped columns, this
could cause failures.
This is wrong since 8b08f7d which has introduced the concept of
partitioned indexes, so backpatch down to 11.

When cancelling REINDEX CONCURRENTLY after swapping the old and new
indexes (for example interruption at step 5), the old index remains
around and is marked as invalid. The old index should also be manually
droppable to clean up the parent relation from any invalid indexes still
remaining. For a partition index reindexed, pg_class.relispartition was
not getting updated, causing the index to not be droppable as DROP INDEX
would look for dependencies in a partition tree, which do not exist
anymore after the swap phase is done.
The fix here is simple: when swapping the old and new indexes, make sure
that pg_class.relispartition is correctly switched, similarly to what is
done for the index name.

When swapping the dependencies of the old and new indexes, the code has
been correctly switching all links in pg_depend from the old to the new
index for both referencing and referenced entries. However it forgot
the fact that the new index may itself have existing entries in
pg_depend, like references to the parent table attributes. This
resulted in duplicated entries in pg_depend after running REINDEX
CONCURRENTLY.
Fix this problem by removing any existing entries in pg_depend on the
new index before switching the dependencies of the old index to the new
one. More regression tests are added to check the consistency of
entries in pg_depend for indexes, including partition indexes.

It appears that libxml2 doesn't bother to set the "children" field of
an XML_NAMESPACE_DECL node to null; that field just contains garbage.
In v10 and v11, this can result in a crash in XMLTABLE(). The rewrite
done in commit 251cf2e27 fixed this, somewhat accidentally, in v12.
We're not going to back-patch 251cf2e27, however. The case apparently
doesn't have wide use, so rather than risk introducing other problems,
just add a safety check to throw an error.
Even though no bug manifests in v12/HEAD, add the relevant test case
there too, to prevent future regressions.

pgtypeslib_extern.h contained fallback definitions of "bool", "FALSE",
and "TRUE". The latter two are just plain unused, and have been for
awhile. The former came into play only if there wasn't a macro
definition of "bool", which is true only if we aren't using <stdbool.h>.
However, it then defined bool as "char"; since commit d26a810eb that
conflicts with c.h's desire to use "unsigned char". We'd missed seeing
any bad effects of that due to accidental header inclusion order choices,
but dddf4cdc3 exposed that it was problematic.
To fix, let's just get rid of these definitions. They should not be
needed because everyplace in Postgres should be relying on c.h to
provide a definition for type bool. (Note that despite its name,
pgtypeslib_extern.h isn't exposed to any outside code; we don't
install it.)
This doesn't fully resolve the issue, because ecpglib.h is doing
similar things, but that seems to require more thought to fix.

surprises from future back-patched bug fixes.

Commit f8e5f156b added private state in postgres.c to track whether
a statement timeout is running. This seems like bad design to me;
timeout.c's private state should be the single source of truth about
that. We already fixed one bug associated with failure to keep those
states in sync (cf. be42015fc), and I've got little faith that we
won't find more in future. So get rid of postgres.c's local variable
by exposing a way to ask timeout.c whether a timeout is running.
(Obviously, such an inquiry is subject to race conditions, but it
seems fine for the purpose at hand.)
To make get_timeout_active() as cheap as possible, add a flag in
the per-timeout struct showing whether that timeout is active.
This allows some small savings elsewhere in timeout.c, mainly
elimination of unnecessary searches of the active_timeouts array.
While at it, fix enable_statement_timeout to not call disable_timeout
when statement_timeout is 0 and the timeout is not running. This
avoids a useless deschedule-and-reschedule-timeouts cycle, which
represents a significant savings (at least one kernel call) when
there is any other active timeout. Right now, there usually isn't,
but there are proposals around to change that.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16035-456e6e69ebfd4374@postgresql.org
Historically, we started the timer (if StatementTimeout > 0) at the
beginning of a simple-Query message and usually let it run until the
end, so that the timeout limit applied to the entire query string,
and intra-string changes of the statement_timeout GUC had no effect.
But, confusingly, a COMMIT within the string would reset the state
and allow a fresh timeout cycle to start with the current setting.
Commit f8e5f156b changed the behavior of statement_timeout for extended
query protocol, and as an apparently-unintended side effect, a change in
the statement_timeout GUC during a multi-statement simple-Query message
might have an effect immediately --- but only if it was going from
"disabled" to "enabled".
This is all pretty confusing, not to mention completely undocumented.
Let's change things so that the timeout is always reset between queries
of a multi-query string, whether they're transaction control commands
or not. Thus the active timeout setting is applied to each query in
the string, separately. This costs a few more cycles if statement_timeout
is active, but it provides much more intuitive behavior, especially if one
changes statement_timeout in one of the queries of the string.
Also, add something to the documentation to explain all this.
Per bug #16035 from Raj Mohite. Although this is a bug fix, I'm hesitant
to back-patch it; conceivably somebody has worked out the old behavior
and is depending on it. (But note that this change should make the
behavior less restrictive in most cases, since the timeout will now
be applied to shorter segments of code.)

Phases 2 (building the new index) and 3 (validating the new index)
checked for interrupts outside a transaction context, having as
consequence to not release session-level locks taken on the parent
relation and the old and new indexes processed. This could for example
be triggered with statement_timeout and a bad timing, and would issue
confusing error messages when shutting down the session still holding
the locks (note that an assertion failure would be triggered first), on
top of more issues with concurrent sessions trying to take a lock that
would interfere with the SHARE UPDATE EXCLUSIVE locks hold here.
This moves all the interruption checks inside a transaction context.
Note that I have manually tested all interruptions to make sure that
invalid indexes can be cleaned up properly. Partition indexes still
have issues on their own with some missing dependency handling, which
will be dealt with in a follow-up patch.
