Tom Lane 246693e5ae Fix possible internal overflow in numeric multiplication.
mul_var() postpones propagating carries until it risks overflow in its
internal digit array.  However, the logic failed to account for the
possibility of overflow in the carry propagation step, allowing wrong
results to be generated in corner cases.  We must slightly reduce the
when-to-propagate-carries threshold to avoid that.

Discovered and fixed by Dean Rasheed, with small adjustments by me.

This has been wrong since commit d72f6c7503,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

Noah Misch 7f11724bd6 Remove the SECURITY_ROW_LEVEL_DISABLED security context bit.
This commit's parent made superfluous the bit's sole usage.  Referential
integrity checks have long run as the subject table's owner, and that
now implies RLS bypass.  Safe use of the bit was tricky, requiring
strict control over the SQL expressions evaluating therein.  Back-patch
to 9.5, where the bit was introduced.

Noah Misch 537bd178c7 Remove the row_security=force GUC value.
Every query of a single ENABLE ROW SECURITY table has two meanings, with
the row_security GUC selecting between them.  With row_security=force
available, every function author would have been advised to either set
the GUC locally or test both meanings.  Non-compliance would have
threatened reliability and, for SECURITY DEFINER functions, security.
Authors already face an obligation to account for search_path, and we
should not mimic that example.  With this change, only BYPASSRLS roles
need exercise the aforementioned care.  Back-patch to 9.5, where the
row_security GUC was introduced.

Since this narrows the domain of pg_db_role_setting.setconfig and
pg_proc.proconfig, one might bump catversion.  A row_security=force
setting in one of those columns will elicit a clear message, so don't.

Tom Lane ba51774d87 Be more wary about partially-valid LOCALLOCK data in RemoveLocalLock().
RemoveLocalLock() must consider the possibility that LockAcquireExtended()
failed to palloc the initial space for a locallock's lockOwners array.
I had evidently meant to cope with this hazard when the code was originally
written (commit 1785acebf2), but missed that
the pfree needed to be protected with an if-test.  Just to make sure things
are left in a clean state, reset numLockOwners as well.

Robert Haas 4a4e6893aa Glue layer to connect the executor to the shm_mq mechanism.
The shm_mq mechanism was built to send error (and notice) messages and
tuples between backends.  However, shm_mq itself only deals in raw
bytes.  Since commit 2bd9e412f9, we have
had infrastructure for one message to redirect protocol messages to a
queue and for another backend to parse them and do useful things with
them.  This commit introduces a somewhat analogous facility for tuples
by adding a new type of DestReceiver, DestTupleQueue, which writes
each tuple generated by a query into a shm_mq, and a new
TupleQueueFunnel facility which reads raw tuples out of the queue and
reconstructs the HeapTuple format expected by the executor.

The TupleQueueFunnel abstraction supports reading from multiple tuple
streams at the same time, but only in round-robin fashion.  Someone
could imaginably want other policies, but this should be good enough
to meet our short-term needs related to parallel query, and we can
always extend it later.

This also makes one minor addition to the shm_mq API that didn'
seem worth breaking out as a separate patch.

Extracted from Amit Kapila's parallel sequential scan patch.  This
code was originally written by me, and then it was revised by Amit,
and then it was revised some more by me.

Andrew Dunstan c00c3249e3 Cache argument type information in json(b) aggregate functions.
These functions have been looking up type info for every row they
process. Instead of doing that we only look them up the first time
through and stash the information in the aggregate state object.

Affects json_agg, json_object_agg, jsonb_agg and jsonb_object_agg.

There is plenty more work to do in making these more efficient,
especially the jsonb functions, but this is a virtually cost free
improvement that can be done right away.

Backpatch to 9.5 where the jsonb variants were introduced.

Tom Lane d9c0c728af Fix low-probability memory leak in regex execution.
After an internal failure in shortest() or longest() while pinning down the
exact location of a match, find() forgot to free the DFA structure before
returning.  This is pretty unlikely to occur, since we just successfully
ran the "search" variant of the DFA; but it could happen, and it would
result in a session-lifespan memory leak since this code uses malloc()
directly.  Problem seems to have been aboriginal in Spencer's library,
so back-patch all the way.

In passing, correct a thinko in a comment I added awhile back about the
meaning of the "ntree" field.

I happened across these issues while comparing our code to Tcl's version
of the library.

Teodor Sigaev 22f519c92a Fix bug introduced by microvacuum for GiST
Commit 013ebc0a7b introduces microvacuum for
GiST, deletetion of tuple marked LP_DEAD uses IndexPageMultiDelete while
recovery code uses IndexPageTupleDelete in loop. This causes a difference
in offset numbers of tuples to delete. Patch introduces usage of
IndexPageMultiDelete in GiST except gistplacetopage() where only one tuple is
deleted at once. That also slightly improve performance, because
IndexPageMultiDelete is more effective.

Patch changes WAL format, so bump wal page magic.

Robert Haas 7aea8e4f2d Determine whether it's safe to attempt a parallel plan for a query.
Commit 924bcf4f16 introduced a framework
for parallel computation in PostgreSQL that makes most but not all
built-in functions safe to execute in parallel mode.  In order to have
parallel query, we'll need to be able to determine whether that query
contains functions (either built-in or user-defined) that cannot be
safely executed in parallel mode.  This requires those functions to be
labeled, so this patch introduces an infrastructure for that.  Some
functions currently labeled as safe may need to be revised depending on
how pending issues related to heavyweight locking under paralllelism
are resolved.

Parallel plans can't be used except for the case where the query will
run to completion.  If portal execution were suspended, the parallel
mode restrictions would need to remain in effect during that time, but
that might make other queries fail.  Therefore, this patch introduces
a framework that enables consideration of parallel plans only when it
is known that the plan will be run to completion.  This probably needs
some refinement; for example, at bind time, we do not know whether a
query run via the extended protocol will be execution to completion or
run with a limited fetch count.  Having the client indicate its
intentions at bind time would constitute a wire protocol break.  Some
contexts in which parallel mode would be safe are not adjusted by this
patch; the default is not to try parallel plans except from call sites
that have been updated to say that such plans are OK.

This commit doesn't introduce any parallel paths or plans; it just
provides a way to determine whether they could potentially be used.
I'm committing it on the theory that the remaining parallel sequential
scan patches will also get committed to this release, hopefully in the
not-too-distant future.

Tom Lane b44d92b67b Sync regex code with Tcl 8.6.4.
Sync our regex code with upstream changes since last time we did this,
which was Tcl 8.5.11 (see commit 08fd6ff37f).

The only functional change here is to disbelieve that an octal escape is
three digits long if it would exceed \377.  That's a bug fix, but it's
a minor one and could change the interpretation of working regexes, so
don't back-patch.

In addition to that, s/INFINITY/DUPINF/ to eliminate the risk of collisions
with <math.h>'s macro, and s/LOCAL/NOPROP/ because that also seems like
an unnecessarily collision-prone macro name.

There were some other cosmetic changes in their copy that I did not adopt,
notably a rather half-hearted attempt at renaming some of the C functions
in a more verbose style.  (I'm not necessarily against the concept, but
renaming just a few functions in the package is not an improvement.)

Tom Lane d0f18cde7e Fix documentation of regular expression character-entry escapes.
The docs claimed that \uhhhh would be interpreted as a Unicode value
regardless of the database encoding, but it's never been implemented
that way: \uhhhh and \xhhhh actually mean exactly the same thing, namely
the character that pg_mb2wchar translates to 0xhhhh.  Moreover we were
falsely dismissive of the usefulness of Unicode code points above FFFF.
Fix that.

For the UPDATE/DELETE RETURNING case, filter the records which are not

Fujii Masao 10fbb79f1a Improve log messages related to tablespace_map file
This patch changes the log message which is logged when the server
successfully renames backup_label file to *.old but fails to rename
tablespace_map file during the shutdown. Previously the WARNING
message "online backup mode was not canceled" was logged in that case.
However this message is confusing because the backup mode is treated
as canceled whenever backup_label is successfully renamed. So this
commit makes the server log the message "online backup mode canceled"
in that case.

Also this commit changes errdetail messages so that they follow the
error message style guide.

Kevin Grittner 5ddc72887a Fix an O(N^2) problem in foreign key references.
Commit 45ba424f improved foreign key lookups during bulk updates
when the FK value does not change.  When restoring a schema dump
from a database with many (say 100,000) foreign keys, this cache
would grow very big and every ALTER TABLE command was causing an
InvalidateConstraintCacheCallBack(), which uses a sequential hash
table scan.  This could cause a severe performance regression in
restoring a schema dump (including during pg_upgrade).

The patch uses a heuristic method of detecting when the hash table
should be destroyed and recreated.
InvalidateConstraintCacheCallBack() adds the current size of the
hash table to a counter.  When that sum reaches 1,000,000, the hash
table is flushed.  This fixes the regression without noticeable
harm to the bulk update use case.
