The IANA timezone crew continues to chip away at their project of removing
timezone abbreviations that have no real-world currency from their
database. The tzdata2017a update removes all such abbreviations for
South American zones, as well as much of the Pacific. This breaks some
test cases in timestamptz.sql that were expecting America/Santiago and
America/Caracas to have non-numeric abbreviations.
The test cases involving America/Santiago seem to have selected that
zone more or less at random, so just replace it with America/New_York,
which is of similar longitude. The cases involving America/Caracas are
harder since they were chosen to test a time-varying zone abbreviation
around a point where it changed meaning in the backwards direction.
Fortunately, Europe/Moscow has a similar case in 2014, and the MSK/MSD
abbreviations are well enough attested that IANA seems unlikely to
decide to remove them from the database in future.
With these changes, this regression test should pass when using any IANA
zone database from 2015 or later. One could wish that there were a few
years more daylight on how out-of-date your zone database can be ... but
really the --with-system-tzdata option is only meant for use on platforms
where the zone database is kept up-to-date pretty faithfully, so I do not
think this is a big objection.

Like Gather, we spawn multiple workers and run the same plan in each
one; however, Gather Merge is used when each worker produces the same
output ordering and we want to preserve that output ordering while
merging together the streams of tuples from various workers. (In a
way, Gather Merge is like a hybrid of Gather and MergeAppend.)
This works out to a win if it saves us from having to perform an
expensive Sort. In cases where only a small amount of data would need
to be sorted, it may actually be faster to use a regular Gather node
and then sort the results afterward, because Gather Merge sometimes
needs to wait synchronously for tuples whereas a pure Gather generally
doesn't. But if this avoids an expensive sort then it's a win.

This exposes the existing explain summary option to users to allow them
to choose if they wish to have the planning time and totalled run time
included in the EXPLAIN result. The existing default behavior is
retained if SUMMARY is not specified- running explain without analyze
will not print the summary lines (just the planning time, currently)
while running explain with analyze will include the summary lines (both
the planning time and the totalled execution time).
Users who wish to see the summary information for plain explain can now
use: EXPLAIN (SUMMARY ON) query; Users who do not want to have the
summary printed for an analyze run can use:
EXPLAIN (ANALYZE ON, SUMMARY OFF) query;
With this, we can now also have EXPLAIN ANALYZE queries included in our
regression tests by using:
EXPLAIN (ANALYZE ON, TIMING OFF, SUMMARY off) query;
I went ahead and added an example of this, which will hopefully not make

XMLTABLE is defined by the SQL/XML standard as a feature that allows
turning XML-formatted data into relational form, so that it can be used
as a <table primary> in the FROM clause of a query.
This new construct provides significant simplicity and performance
benefit for XML data processing; what in a client-side custom
implementation was reported to take 20 minutes can be executed in 400ms
using XMLTABLE. (The same functionality was said to take 10 seconds
using nested PostgreSQL XPath function calls, and 5 seconds using
XMLReader under PL/Python).
The implemented syntax deviates slightly from what the standard
requires. First, the standard indicates that the PASSING clause is
optional and that multiple XML input documents may be given to it; we
make it mandatory and accept a single document only. Second, we don't
currently support a default namespace to be specified.
This implementation relies on a new executor node based on a hardcoded
method table. (Because the grammar is fixed, there is no extensibility
in the current approach; further constructs can be implemented on top of
this such as JSON_TABLE, but they require changes to core code.)

It can often be useful to use expanded mode output (\x) for just a
single query. Introduce a \gx which acts exactly like \g except that it
will force expanded output mode for that one \gx call. This is simpler
than having to use \x as a toggle and also means that the user doesn't

resetting it later, to ensure a given query is always returned in
expanded mode.

When performing a pg_upgrade, we copy the files behind pg_largeobject
and pg_largeobject_metadata, allowing us to avoid having to dump out and
reload the actual data for large objects and their ACLs.
Unfortunately, that isn't all of the information which can be associated
with large objects. Currently, we also support COMMENTs and SECURITY
LABELs with large objects and these were being silently dropped during a
pg_upgrade as pg_dump would skip everything having to do with a large
object and pg_upgrade only copied the tables mentioned to the new
cluster.
As the file copies happen after the catalog dump and reload, we can't
simply include the COMMENTs and SECURITY LABELs in pg_dump's binary-mode
output but we also have to include the actual large object definition as
well. With the definition, comments, and security labels in the pg_dump
output and the file copies performed by pg_upgrade, all of the data and
metadata associated with large objects is able to be successfully pulled
forward across a pg_upgrade.
In 9.6 and master, we can simply adjust the dump bitmask to indicate
which components we don't want. In 9.5 and earlier, we have to put
explciit checks in in dumpBlob() and dumpBlobs() to not include the ACL
or the data when in binary-upgrade mode.
Adjustments made to the privileges regression test to allow another test
(large_object.sql) to be added which explicitly leaves a large object
with a comment in place to provide coverage of that case with

The generic drop support already supported dropping multiple objects of

In simpler times, it might have worked to refer to all kinds of objects
by a list of name components and an optional argument list. But this
doesn't work for all objects, which has resulted in a collection of
hacks to place various other nodes types into these fields, which have
to be unpacked at the other end. This makes it also weird to represent
lists of such things in the grammar, because they would have to be lists
of singleton lists, to make the unpacking work consistently. The other
problem is that keeping separate name and args fields makes it awkward
to deal with lists of functions.
Change that by dropping the objargs field and have objname, renamed to
object, be a generic Node, which can then be flexibly assigned and
managed using the normal Node mechanisms. In many cases it will still
be a List of names, in some cases it will be a string Value, for types
it will be the existing Typename, for functions it will now use the
existing ObjectWithArgs node type. Some of the more obscure object
types still use somewhat arbitrary nested lists.

When min_parallel_relation_size was added, the only supported type
of parallel scan was a parallel sequential scan, but there are
pending patches for parallel index scan, parallel index-only scan,
and parallel bitmap heap scan. Those patches introduce two new
types of complications: first, what's relevant is not really the
total size of the relation but the portion of it that we will scan;
and second, index pages and heap pages shouldn't necessarily be
treated in exactly the same way. Typically, the number of index
pages will be quite small, but that doesn't necessarily mean that
a parallel index scan can't pay off.
Therefore, we introduce min_parallel_table_scan_size, which works
out a degree of parallelism for scans based on the number of table
pages that will be scanned (and which is therefore equivalent to
min_parallel_relation_size for parallel sequential scans) and also
min_parallel_index_scan_size which can be used to work out a degree
of parallelism based on the number of index pages that will be
scanned.

This stores a data type, required to be an integer type, with the
sequence. The sequences min and max values default to the range
supported by the type, and they cannot be set to values exceeding that
range. The internal implementation of the sequence is not affected.
Change the serial types to create sequences of the appropriate type.
This makes sure that the min and max values of the sequence for a serial
column match the range of values supported by the table column. So the
sequence can no longer overflow the table column.
This also makes monitoring for sequence exhaustion/wraparound easier,
which currently requires various contortions to cross-reference the
sequences with the table columns they are used with.

Given a targetlist like "srf(x), f(srf(x))", split_pathtarget_at_srfs()
decided that it needed two levels of ProjectSet nodes, failing to notice
that the two SRF calls are textually equal(). Because of that, setrefs.c
would convert the upper ProjectSet's tlist to "Var1, f(Var1)" (where Var1
represents a reference to the srf(x) output of the lower ProjectSet).
This triggered an assertion in nodeProjectSet.c complaining that it found
no SRFs to evaluate, as reported by Erik Rijkers.
What we want in such a case is to evaluate srf(x) only once and use a plain
Result node to compute "Var1, f(Var1)"; that gives results similar to what
previous versions produced, whereas allowing srf(x) to be evaluated again
in an upper ProjectSet would square the number of rows emitted.
Furthermore, even if the SRF calls aren't textually identical, we want them
to be evaluated in lockstep, because that's what happened in the old
implementation. But split_pathtarget_at_srfs() got this completely wrong,
using two levels of ProjectSet for a case like "srf(x), f(srf(y))".
Hence, rewrite split_pathtarget_at_srfs() from the ground up so that it
groups SRFs according to the depth of nesting of SRFs in their arguments.
This is pretty much how we envisioned that working originally, but I blew
it when it came to implementation.

is not only possible but quite common.

This commit improves on the results of commit 511ae628f in two ways:
1. It restores the historical behavior that "\set FOO" is interpreted
as setting FOO to "on", if FOO is a boolean control variable. We
already found one test script that was expecting that behavior, and
the psql documentation certainly does nothing to discourage people
from assuming that would work, since it often says just "if FOO is set"
when describing the effects of a boolean variable. However, now this
case will result in actually setting FOO to "on", not an empty string.
2. It arranges for an "\unset" of a control variable to set the value
back to its default value, rather than becoming apparently undefined.
The control variables are also initialized that way at psql startup.
In combination, these things guarantee that a control variable always
has a displayable value that reflects what psql is actually doing.
That is a pretty substantial usability improvement.
The implementation involves adding a second type of variable hook function
that is able to replace a proposed new value (including NULL) with another
one. We could alternatively have complicated the API of the assign hook,
but this way seems better since many variables can share the same
substitution hook function.
Also document the actual behavior of these variables more fully,
including covering assorted behaviors that were there before but
never documented.
This patch also includes some minor cleanup that should have been in
511ae628f but was missed.
Patch by me, but it owes a lot to discussions with Daniel Vérité.

Quite a few of our built-in system views were not exercised anywhere
in the regression tests. This is perhaps not so exciting for the ones
that are simple projections/joins of system catalogs, but for the ones
that are wrappers for set-returning C functions, the omission translates
directly to lack of test coverage for those functions.
In many cases, the reason for the omission is that the view doesn't have
much to do with any specific SQL feature, so there's no natural place to
test it. To remedy that, invent a new script sysviews.sql that's dedicated
to testing SRF-based views. Move a couple of tests that did fit this
charter into the new script, and add simple "count(*)" based tests of
other views within the charter. That's enough to ensure we at least
exercise the main code path through the SRF, although it does little to
prove that the output is sane.
More could be done here, no doubt, and I hope someone will think about
how we can test these views more thoroughly. But this is a starting
point.

Previously, if the user set a special variable such as ECHO to an
unrecognized value, psql would bleat but store the new value anyway, and
then fall back to a default setting for the behavior controlled by the
variable. This was agreed to be a not particularly good idea. With
this patch, invalid values result in an error message and no change in
state.
(But this applies only to variables that affect psql's behavior; purely
informational variables such as ENCODING can still be set to random
values.)
To do this, modify the API for psql's assign-hook functions so that they
can return an OK/not OK result, and give them the responsibility for
printing error messages when they reject a value. Adjust the APIs for
ParseVariableBool and ParseVariableNum to support the new behavior
conveniently.
In passing, document the variable VERSION, which had somehow escaped that.

In commit 6c268df, pg_init_privs was added to track the initial
privileges of catalog objects and extensions. Unfortunately, that
commit didn't include understanding of ALTER EXTENSION ADD/DROP, which
allows the objects associated with an extension to be changed after the
initial CREATE EXTENSION script has been run.
The result of this meant that ACLs for objects added through
ALTER EXTENSION ADD were not recorded into pg_init_privs and we would
end up including those ACLs in pg_dump when we shouldn't have.
This commit corrects that by making sure to have pg_init_privs updated

are at ALTER EXTENSION ADD time, and removing any if/when ALTER
EXTENSION DROP is called.

Previously, type "unknown" was labeled as a base type in pg_type, which
perhaps had some sense to it because you were allowed to create tables with
unknown-type columns. But now that we don't allow that, it makes more
sense to label it a pseudo-type. This has the additional effects of
forbidding use of "unknown" as a domain base type, cast source or target
type, PL function argument or result type, or plpgsql local variable type;
all of which seem like good holes to plug.

Previously, we left such literals alone if the query or subquery had
no properties forcing a type decision to be made (such as an ORDER BY or
DISTINCT clause using that output column). This meant that "unknown" could
be an exposed output column type, which has never been a great idea because
it could result in strange failures later on. For example, an outer query
that tried to do any operations on an unknown-type subquery output would
generally fail with some weird error like "failed to find conversion
function from unknown to text" or "could not determine which collation to
use for string comparison". Also, if the case occurred in a CREATE VIEW's
query then the view would have an unknown-type column, causing similar
failures in queries trying to use the view.
To fix, at the tail end of parse analysis of a query, forcibly convert any
remaining "unknown" literals in its SELECT or RETURNING list to type text.
However, provide a switch to suppress that, and use it in the cases of
SELECT inside a set operation or INSERT command. In those cases we already
had type resolution rules that make use of context information from outside
the subquery proper, and we don't want to change that behavior.
Also, change creation of an unknown-type column in a relation from a
warning to a hard error. The error should be unreachable now in CREATE
VIEW or CREATE MATVIEW, but it's still possible to explicitly say "unknown"
in CREATE TABLE or CREATE (composite) TYPE. We want to forbid that because
it's nothing but a foot-gun.
This change creates a pg_upgrade failure case: a matview that contains an
unknown-type column can't be pg_upgraded, because reparsing the matview's
defining query will now decide that the column is of type text, which
doesn't match the cstring-like storage that the old materialized column
would actually have. Add a checking pass to detect that. While at it,
we can detect tables or composite types that would fail, essentially
for free. Those would fail safely anyway later on, but we might as
well fail earlier.
This patch is by me, but it owes something to previous investigations

Account for the fact that the highest bound less than or equal to the
upper bound might be either the lower or the upper bound of the
overlapping partition, depending on whether the proposed partition
completely contains the existing partition or merely overlaps it.
Also, we need not continue searching for even greater bound in
partition_bound_bsearch() once we find the first bound that is *equal*

When a tuple is inherited into a partitioning root, no partition
constraints need to be enforced; when it is inserted into a leaf, the
parent's partitioning quals needed to be enforced. The previous
coding got both of those cases right. When a tuple is inserted into
an intermediate level of the partitioning hierarchy (i.e. a table
which is both a partition itself and in turn partitioned), it must
enforce the partitioning qual inherited from its parent. That case
got overlooked; repair.

When considering a sequence's Data entry in dumpSequenceData, we were
actually looking at the sequence definition's dump flag to decide if we
should dump the data or not. That's generally fine, except for when the
sequence data entry was created by processExtensionTables() because it's
a config sequence. In that case, the sequence itself won't be marked as
dumping data because it's part of an extension, leading to the need for
processExtensionTables() to create the sequence data entry.
This leads to extension config sequence data not being included in the
dump when it should be. Fix this by looking at the sequence data's dump
flag instead, just as dumpTableData() was doing for tables (which is why
config tables were correctly being handled), and add a regression test
to make sure we don't break it moving forward.
All of this is a bit round-about since we can now represent which
components of a given dump item should be dumped out through the dump
flag. A future improvement might be to change checkExtensionMembership()
to check for config sequences/tables and set the dump flag based on that
directly, possibly removing the need for processExtensionTables().

Evaluation of set returning functions (SRFs_ in the targetlist (like SELECT
generate_series(1,5)) so far was done in the expression evaluation (i.e.
ExecEvalExpr()) and projection (i.e. ExecProject/ExecTargetList) code.
This meant that most executor nodes performing projection, and most
expression evaluation functions, had to deal with the possibility that an
evaluated expression could return a set of return values.
That's bad because it leads to repeated code in a lot of places. It also,
and that's my (Andres's) motivation, made it a lot harder to implement a
more efficient way of doing expression evaluation.
To fix this, introduce a new executor node (ProjectSet) that can evaluate
targetlists containing one or more SRFs. To avoid the complexity of the old
way of handling nested expressions returning sets (e.g. having to pass up
ExprDoneCond, and dealing with arguments to functions returning sets etc.),
those SRFs can only be at the top level of the node's targetlist. The
planner makes sure (via split_pathtarget_at_srfs()) that SRF evaluation is
only necessary in ProjectSet nodes and that SRFs are only present at the
top level of the node's targetlist. If there are nested SRFs the planner
creates multiple stacked ProjectSet nodes. The ProjectSet nodes always get
input from an underlying node.
We also discussed and prototyped evaluating targetlist SRFs using ROWS
FROM(), but that turned out to be more complicated than we'd hoped.
While moving SRF evaluation to ProjectSet would allow to retain the old
"least common multiple" behavior when multiple SRFs are present in one
targetlist (i.e. continue returning rows until all SRFs are at the end of
their input at the same time), we decided to instead only return rows till
all SRFs are exhausted, returning NULL for already exhausted ones. We
deemed the previous behavior to be too confusing, unexpected and actually
not particularly useful.
As a side effect, the previously prohibited case of multiple set returning
arguments to a function, is now allowed. Not because it's particularly
desirable, but because it ends up working and there seems to be no argument
for adding code to prohibit it.
Currently the behavior for COALESCE and CASE containing SRFs has changed,
returning multiple rows from the expression, even when the SRF containing
"arm" of the expression is not evaluated. That's because the SRFs are
evaluated in a separate ProjectSet node. As that's quite confusing, we're
likely to instead prohibit SRFs in those places. But that's still being
discussed, and the code would reside in places not touched here, so that's
a task for later.
There's a lot of, now superfluous, code dealing with set return expressions
around. But as the changes to get rid of those are verbose largely boring,
it seems better for readability to keep the cleanup as a separate commit.

In an RLS query, we must ensure that security filter quals are evaluated
before ordinary query quals, in case the latter contain "leaky" functions
that could expose the contents of sensitive rows. The original
implementation of RLS planning ensured this by pushing the scan of a
secured table into a sub-query that it marked as a security-barrier view.
Unfortunately this results in very inefficient plans in many cases, because
the sub-query cannot be flattened and gets planned independently of the
rest of the query.
To fix, drop the use of sub-queries to enforce RLS qual order, and instead
mark each qual (RestrictInfo) with a security_level field establishing its
priority for evaluation. Quals must be evaluated in security_level order,
except that "leakproof" quals can be allowed to go ahead of quals of lower
security_level, if it's helpful to do so. This has to be enforced within
the ordering of any one list of quals to be evaluated at a table scan node,
and we also have to ensure that quals are not chosen for early evaluation
(i.e., use as an index qual or TID scan qual) if they're not allowed to go
ahead of other quals at the scan node.
This is sufficient to fix the problem for RLS quals, since we only support
RLS policies on simple tables and thus RLS quals will always exist at the
table scan level only. Eventually these qual ordering rules should be
enforced for join quals as well, which would permit improving planning for
explicit security-barrier views; but that's a task for another patch.
Note that FDWs would need to be aware of these rules --- and not, for
example, send an insecure qual for remote execution --- but since we do
not yet allow RLS policies on foreign tables, the case doesn't arise.
This will need to be addressed before we can allow such policies.

INSERT ... VALUES with a single VALUES row is implemented quite differently
from the general VALUES case. A user-visible implication of that is that
we accept SRFs in the single-row case, but not in the multi-row case.
That's a historical artifact no doubt, but in view of the lack of field
complaints, I'm not excited about fixing it right now.
However, check_srf_call_placement() needs to know about this, first because
it should throw an error in the unsupported case, and second because it
should set p_hasTargetSRFs in the single-row case (because we treat that
like a SELECT tlist). That's an oversight in commit a4c35ea1c.

Normally, if we have a WHERE clause like "indexcol = constant",
the planner will figure out that that index column can be ignored
when determining whether the index has a desired sort ordering.
But this failed to work for boolean index columns, because a

which does not give rise to an EquivalenceClass. Add a check to
allow the same type of deduction to be made in this case too.

Move the code for doing parent attnos to child attnos mapping for Vars

map_partition_varattnos() and call it from the appropriate places.
Doing it in get_qual_from_partbound(), as is now, would produce wrong

considers the current pair of parent-child relations. In certain
multi-level partitioning cases, attnums for the same key attribute(s)

numbered differently in different instances of the Var corresponding
to a given attribute.
With this commit, in generate_partition_qual(), we first generate the

interval_transform() contained two separate bugs that caused it to

First, it was wrong to rely on dt.h's field type macros to have an

not. This led to mistakenly treating YEAR as less significant than MONTH,
so that a cast from INTERVAL MONTH to INTERVAL YEAR was incorrectly
discarded.
Second, fls(1<<k) produces k+1 not k, so comparing its output directly
to SECOND was wrong. This led to supposing that a cast to INTERVAL
MINUTE was really a cast to INTERVAL SECOND and so could be discarded.

When the input value to a CoerceToDomain expression node is a read-write

A similar hazard of passing the same read-write pointer to multiple

effectively defined semantics for operators underneath PHRASE that were
buggy, or at least unintuitive. And because rewriting was done in
tsqueryin() rather than at execution, the rearrangement was user-visible,
which is not very desirable --- for example, it might cause unexpected
matches or failures to match in ts_rewrite.
As a somewhat independent problem, the behavior of nested PHRASE operators
was only sane for left-deep trees; queries like "x <-> (y <-> z)" did not
behave intuitively at all.
To fix, get rid of the rewrite logic altogether, and instead teach the
tsquery execution engine to manage AND/OR/NOT below a PHRASE operator
by explicitly computing the match location(s) and match widths for these
operators.
This requires introducing some additional fields into the publicly visible
ExecPhraseData struct; but since there's no way for third-party code to
pass such a struct to TS_phrase_execute, it shouldn't create an ABI problem
as long as we don't move the offsets of the existing fields.
Another related problem was that index searches supposed that "!x <-> y"
could be lossily approximated as "!x & y", which isn't correct because
the latter will reject, say, "x q y" which the query itself accepts.
This required some tweaking in TS_execute_ternary along with the main
tsquery engine.
Back-patch to 9.6 where phrase operators were introduced. While this
could be argued to change behavior more than we'd like in a stable branch,
we have to do something about the crash hazards and index-vs-seqscan
inconsistency, and it doesn't seem desirable to let the unintuitive
behaviors induced by the rewriting implementation stand as precedent.

When CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW acts on an existing view, don't update the
view options until after the view query has been updated.
This is necessary in the case where CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW is used on
an existing view that is not updatable, and the new view is updatable
and specifies the WITH CHECK OPTION. In this case, attempting to apply
the new options to the view before updating its query fails, because
the options are applied using the ALTER TABLE infrastructure which
checks that WITH CHECK OPTION is only applied to an updatable view.
If new columns are being added to the view, that is also done using
the ALTER TABLE infrastructure, but it is important that that still be
done before updating the view query, because the rules system checks
that the query columns match those on the view relation. Added a
comment to explain that, in case someone is tempted to move that to
where the view options are now being set.
Back-patch to 9.4 where WITH CHECK OPTION was added.

The distance of a removed phrase operator should propagate up to a
parent phrase operator if there is one, but this only worked correctly
in left-deep trees. Throwing in a few parentheses confused it completely,
as indeed was illustrated by bizarre results in existing regression test
cases.
To fix, track unaccounted-for distances that should propagate to the left
and to the right of the current node, rather than trying to make it work
with only one returned distance.
Also make some adjustments to behave as well as we can for cases of
intermixed phrase and regular (AND/OR) operators. I don't think it's
possible to be 100% correct for that without a rethinking of the tsquery
representation; for example, maybe we should just not drop stopword nodes
at all underneath phrase operators. But this is better than it was,
and changing tsquery representation wouldn't be safely back-patchable.
While at it, I simplified the API of the clean_fakeval_intree function
a bit by getting rid of the "char *result" output parameter; that wasn't
doing anything that wasn't redundant with whether the result node is
NULL or not, and testing for NULL seems a lot clearer/safer.
This is part of a larger project to fix various infelicities in the
phrase-search implementation, but this part seems comittable on its own.

This feature is also known as "quorum commit" especially in discussion
on pgsql-hackers.
This commit adds the following new syntaxes into synchronous_standby_names
GUC. By using FIRST and ANY keywords, users can specify the method to
choose synchronous standbys from the listed servers.
FIRST num_sync (standby_name [, ...])
ANY num_sync (standby_name [, ...])
The keyword FIRST specifies a priority-based synchronous replication
which was available also in 9.6 or before. This method makes transaction
commits wait until their WAL records are replicated to num_sync
synchronous standbys chosen based on their priorities.
The keyword ANY specifies a quorum-based synchronous replication
and makes transaction commits wait until their WAL records are
replicated to *at least* num_sync listed standbys. In this method,
the values of sync_state.pg_stat_replication for the listed standbys
are reported as "quorum". The priority is still assigned to each standby,
but not used in this method.
The existing syntaxes having neither FIRST nor ANY keyword are still
supported. They are the same as new syntax with FIRST keyword, i.e.,
a priorirty-based synchronous replication.

Many thanks to the various individuals who were involved in
discussing and developing this feature.
There's no good reason why plpgsql's GET DIAGNOSTICS statement can't
support an array element as target variable, since the execution code
already uses the generic exec_assign_value() function to assign to it.
Hence, refactor the grammar to allow that, by making getdiag_target
depend on the assign_var production.
Ideally we'd also let a cursor_variable expand to an element of a
refcursor[] array, but that's substantially harder since those statements
also have to handle bound-cursor-variable cases. For now, just make sure
the reported error is sensible, ie "cursor variable must be a simple
variable" not "variable must be of type cursor or refcursor". The latter
was quite confusing from the user's viewpoint, since what he wrote
satisfies the claimed restriction.

array_position and its cousin array_positions were caching the element
type equality function's FmgrInfo without being careful enough to put it
in a long-lived context. This is obviously broken but it didn't matter
in most cases; only when using arrays of records (involving record_eq)
it becomes a problem. The fix is to ensure that the type's equality
function's FmgrInfo is cached in the array_position's flinfo->fn_mcxt
rather than the current memory context.
Apart from record types, the only other case that seems complex enough
to possibly cause the same problem are range types. I didn't find a way
to reproduce the problem with those, so I only include the test case

Backpatch to 9.5, where array_position appeared.
expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type() reported the exprType() and
exprTypmod() values of the expressions in the first row of the VALUES as
being the column type/typmod returned by the VALUES RTE. That's fine for
the data type, since we coerce all expressions in a column to have the same
common type. But we don't coerce them to have a common typmod, so it was
possible for rows after the first one to return values that violate the
claimed column typmod. This leads to the incorrect result seen in bug
#14448 from Hassan Mahmood, as well as some other corner-case misbehaviors.
The desired behavior is the same as we use in other type-unification
cases: report the common typmod if there is one, but otherwise return -1
indicating no particular constraint. It's cheap for transformValuesClause
to determine the common typmod while transforming a multi-row VALUES, but
it'd be less cheap for expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type() to
re-determine that info every time they're asked --- possibly a lot less
cheap, if the VALUES has many rows. Therefore, the best fix is to record
the common typmods explicitly in a list in the VALUES RTE, as we were
already doing for column collations. This looks quite a bit like what
we're doing for CTE RTEs, so we can save a little bit of space and code by
unifying the representation for those two RTE types. They both now share
coltypes/coltypmods/colcollations fields. (At some point it might seem
desirable to populate those fields for all RTE types; but right now it
looks like constructing them for other RTE types would add more code and
cycles than it would save.)
The RTE change requires a catversion bump, so this fix is only usable
in HEAD. If we fix this at all in the back branches, the patch will
need to look quite different.

Table partitioning is like table inheritance and reuses much of the
existing infrastructure, but there are some important differences.
The parent is called a partitioned table and is always empty; it may
not have indexes or non-inherited constraints, since those make no
sense for a relation with no data of its own. The children are called
partitions and contain all of the actual data. Each partition has an
implicit partitioning constraint. Multiple inheritance is not
allowed, and partitioning and inheritance can't be mixed. Partitions
can't have extra columns and may not allow nulls unless the parent
does. Tuples inserted into the parent are automatically routed to the
correct partition, so tuple-routing ON INSERT triggers are not needed.
Tuple routing isn't yet supported for partitions which are foreign
tables, and it doesn't handle updates that cross partition boundaries.
Currently, tables can be range-partitioned or list-partitioned. List
partitioning is limited to a single column, but range partitioning can
involve multiple columns. A partitioning "column" can be an
expression.
Because table partitioning is less general than table inheritance, it
is hoped that it will be easier to reason about properties of
partitions, and therefore that this will serve as a better foundation
for a variety of possible optimizations, including query planner
optimizations. The tuple routing based which this patch does based on
the implicit partitioning constraints is an example of this, but it
seems likely that many other useful optimizations are also possible.

Must do pg_stat_clear_snapshot() inside test's loop, or our snapshot of
pg_stat_activity will never change :-(. Thinko in b3427dade -- evidently
my workstation never really iterated the loop in testing. Per buildfarm.
deleteWhatDependsOn() had grown an uncomfortably large number of
assumptions about what it's used for. There are actually only two minor
differences between what it does and what a regular performDeletion() call
can do, so let's invent additional bits in performDeletion's existing flags
argument that specify those behaviors, and get rid of deleteWhatDependsOn()
as such. (We'd probably have done it this way from the start, except that
performDeletion didn't originally have a flags argument, IIRC.)
Also, add a SKIP_EXTENSIONS flag bit that prevents ever recursing to an
extension, and use that when dropping temporary objects at session end.
This provides a more general solution to the problem addressed in a hacky
way in commit 08dd23cec: if an extension script creates temp objects and
forgets to remove them again, the whole extension went away when its
contained temp objects were deleted. The previous solution only covered
temp relations, but this solves it for all object types.
These changes require minor additions in dependency.c to pass the flags
to subroutines that previously didn't get them, but it's still a net
savings of code, and it seems cleaner than before.
Having done this, revert the special-case code added in 08dd23cec that
prevented addition of pg_depend records for temp table extension
membership, because that caused its own oddities: dropping an extension
that had created such a table didn't automatically remove the table,
leading to a failure if the table had another dependency on the extension
(such as use of an extension data type), or to a duplicate-name failure if
you then tried to recreate the extension. But we keep the part that
prevents the pg_temp_nnn schema from becoming an extension member; we never
want that to happen. Add a regression test case covering these behaviors.
Although this fixes some arguable bugs, we've heard few field complaints,
and any such problems are easily worked around by explicitly dropping temp
objects at the end of extension scripts (which seems like good practice
anyway). So I won't risk a back-patch.

Commit 08dd23cec introduced an exception to the rule that extension member
objects can only be dropped as part of dropping the whole extension,
intending to allow such drops while running the extension's own creation or
update scripts. However, the exception was only applied at the outermost
recursion level, because it was modeled on a pre-existing check to ignore
dependencies on objects listed in pendingObjects. Bug #14434 from Philippe
Beaudoin shows that this is inadequate: in some cases we can reach an
extension member object by recursion from another one. (The bug concerns
the serial-sequence case; I'm not sure if there are other cases, but there
might well be.)
To fix, revert 08dd23cec's changes to findDependentObjects() and instead
apply the creating_extension exception regardless of stack level.
Having seen this example, I'm a bit suspicious that the pendingObjects
logic is also wrong and such cases should likewise be allowed at any
recursion level. However, changing that would interact in subtle ways
with the recursion logic (at least it would need to be moved to after the
recursing-from check). Given that the code's been like that a long time,
I'll refrain from touching it without a clear example showing it's wrong.

When rebuilding an existing index, ALTER TABLE correctly kept the
physical file in the same tablespace, but it messed up the pg_class
entry if the index had been in the database's default tablespace
and "default_tablespace" was set to some non-default tablespace.
This led to an inaccessible index.
Fix by fixing pg_get_indexdef_string() to always include a tablespace
clause, whether or not the index is in the default tablespace. The
previous behavior was installed in commit 537e92e41, and I think it just
wasn't thought through very clearly; certainly the possible effect of
default_tablespace wasn't considered. There's some risk in changing the
behavior of this function, but there are no other call sites in the core

Previously, the right-hand side of a multiple-column assignment, if it
wasn't a sub-SELECT, had to be a simple parenthesized expression list,
because gram.y was responsible for "bursting" the construct into
independent column assignments. This had the minor defect that you
couldn't write ROW (though you should be able to, since the standard says
this is a row constructor), and the rather larger defect that unlike other
uses of row constructors, we would not expand a "foo.*" item into multiple
columns.
Fix that by changing the RHS to be just "a_expr" in the grammar, leaving
it to transformMultiAssignRef to separate the elements of a RowExpr;
which it will do only after performing standard transformation of the
RowExpr, so that "foo.*" behaves as expected.
The key reason we didn't do that before was the hard-wired handling of
DEFAULT tokens (SetToDefault nodes). This patch deals with that issue by
allowing DEFAULT in any a_expr and having parse analysis throw an error
if SetToDefault is found in an unexpected place. That's an improvement
anyway since the error can be more specific than just "syntax error".
The SQL standard suggests that the RHS could be any a_expr yielding a
suitable row value. This patch doesn't really move the goal posts in that
respect --- you're still limited to RowExpr or a sub-SELECT --- but it does
fix the grammar restriction, so it provides some tangible progress towards
a full implementation. And the limitation is now documented by an explicit
error message rather than an unhelpful "syntax error".

Because we use transformTargetList() for UPDATE as well as SELECT
tlists, the code accidentally tried to expand a "*" reference into
several columns. This is nonsensical, because the UPDATE syntax
provides exactly one target column to put the value into. The
immediate result was that transformUpdateTargetList() got confused
and reported "UPDATE target count mismatch --- internal error".
It seems better to treat such a reference as a plain whole-row
variable, as it would be in other contexts. (This could produce
useful results when the target column is of composite type.)
Fix by tweaking transformTargetList() to perform *-expansion only
conditionally, depending on its exprKind parameter.
Back-patch to 9.3. The problem exists further back, but a fix would be
much more invasive before that, because transformTargetList() wasn't
told what kind of list it was working on. Doesn't seem worth the

I was checking the code while trying to improve the documentation about
how we handle "foo.*".)

Use this function in place of SPI_modifytuple at all call sites where the

SPI_fnumber() never returns 0, but I'm feeling pedantic today.

While converting expressions in an upper-level plan node so that they
reference Vars and expressions provided by the input plan node(s),
don't convert plain Const items, even if there happens to be a matching

execute than a Const. Moreover, converting can fool ExecCheckPlanOutput's
check that an insert or update query inserts nulls into dropped columns,
leading to "query provides a value for a dropped column" errors during
INSERT or UPDATE on a table with a dropped column. We could solve this

The code to change the deferrability properties of a foreign-key constraint
updated all the associated triggers to match; but a moment's examination of
the code that creates those triggers in the first place shows that only
some of them should track the constraint's deferrability properties. This
leads to odd failures in subsequent exercise of the foreign key, as the
triggers are fired at the wrong times. Fix that, and add a regression test
comparing the trigger properties produced by ALTER CONSTRAINT with those
you get by creating the constraint as-intended to begin with.
Per report from James Parks. Back-patch to 9.4 where this ALTER
functionality was introduced.

A transaction that conflicts against itself, for example
INSERT INTO t(pk) VALUES (1),(1) ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING;
should behave the same regardless of isolation level. It certainly
shouldn't throw a serialization error, as retrying will not help.
We got this wrong due to the ON CONFLICT logic not considering the case,
as reported by Jason Dusek.
Core of this patch is by Peter Geoghegan (based on an earlier patch by

Despite the argumentation I wrote in commit 7a2fe85b0, it's unsafe to do
this, because in corner cases it's possible for HeapTupleSatisfiesSelf
to try to set hint bits on the target tuple; and at least since 8.2 we
have required the buffer content lock to be held while setting hint bits.
The added regression test exercises one such corner case. Unpatched, it
causes an assertion failure in assert-enabled builds, or otherwise would
cause a hint bit change in a buffer we don't hold lock on, which given
the right race condition could result in checksum failures or other data
consistency problems. The odds of a problem in the field are probably
pretty small, but nonetheless back-patch to all supported branches.

When a relation is truncated, it is important that the FSM is truncated as
well. Otherwise, after recovery, the FSM can return a page that has been
truncated away, leading to errors like:
ERROR: could not read block 28991 in file "base/16390/572026": read only 0
of 8192 bytes
We were using MarkBufferDirtyHint() to dirty the buffer holding the last
remaining page of the FSM, but during recovery, that might in fact not
dirty the page, and the FSM update might be lost.
To fix, use the stronger MarkBufferDirty() function. MarkBufferDirty()
requires us to do WAL-logging ourselves, to protect from a torn page, if
checksumming is enabled.
Also fix an oversight in visibilitymap_truncate: it also needs to WAL-log
when checksumming is enabled.

It's not good for an inherited child constraint to be marked connoinherit;
that would result in the constraint not propagating to grandchild tables,

This is somewhat related to commit e55a946a8, which also tightened checks
on constraint merging. Hence, back-patch to 9.2 like that one. This isn't

The transfunction was told that its first argument and result were
of the window function output type, not the aggregate state type.
This'd only matter if the transfunction consults get_fn_expr_argtype,

Although we have several regression tests around polymorphic aggs,
none of them detected this mistake --- in fact, they still didn't
fail when I injected the same mistake into nodeAgg.c. So add some

Report: <87int2qkat.fsf@gmail.com>
Historically, we've allowed users to add a CHECK constraint to a child
table and then add an identical CHECK constraint to the parent. This
results in "merging" the two constraints so that the pre-existing
child constraint ends up with both conislocal = true and coninhcount > 0.
However, if you tried to do it in the other order, you got a duplicate
constraint error. This is problematic for pg_dump, which needs to issue
separated ADD CONSTRAINT commands in some cases, but has no good way to
ensure that the constraints will be added in the required order.
And it's more than a bit arbitrary, too. The goal of complaining about
duplicated ADD CONSTRAINT commands can be served if we reject the case of
adding a constraint when the existing one already has conislocal = true;
but if it has conislocal = false, let's just make the ADD CONSTRAINT set
conislocal = true. In this way, either order of adding the constraints
has the same end result.
Another problem was that the code allowed creation of a parent constraint
marked convalidated that is merged with a child constraint that is
!convalidated. In this case, an inheritance scan of the parent table could
emit some rows violating the constraint condition, which would be an
unexpected result given the marking of the parent constraint as validated.
Hence, forbid merging of constraints in this case. (Note: valid child and
not-valid parent seems fine, so continue to allow that.)
Per report from Benedikt Grundmann. Back-patch to 9.2 where we introduced
possibly-not-valid check constraints. The second bug obviously doesn't
apply before that, and I think the first doesn't either, because pg_dump
only gets into this situation when dealing with not-valid constraints.

There were several issues with the old coding:
1. There was a race condition, if two threads opened a connection at the
same time. We used a mutex around SSL_CTX_* calls, but that was not
enough, e.g. if one thread SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations() with one
path, and another thread set it with a different path, before the first
thread got to establish the connection.
2. Opening two different connections, with different sslrootcert settings,
seemed to fail outright with "SSL error: block type is not 01". Not sure
why.
3. We created the SSL object, before calling SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations
and SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file on the SSL context. That was
wrong, because the options set on the SSL context are propagated to the
SSL object, when the SSL object is created. If they are set after the
SSL object has already been created, they won't take effect until the
next connection. (This is bug #14329)
At least some of these could've been fixed while still using a shared
context, but it would've been more complicated and error-prone. To keep
things simple, let's just use a separate SSL context for each connection,
and accept the overhead.

WaitLatch, WaitLatchOrSocket, and WaitEventSetWait now taken an

pgstat.h. This makes it possible to uniquely identify every point in

WAIT_EXTENSION.
Because latches were the major wait primitive not previously covered
by this patch, it is now possible to see information in
pg_stat_activity on a large number of important wait events not
previously addressed, such as ClientRead, ClientWrite, and SyncRep.
Unfortunately, many of the wait events added by this patch will fail
to appear in pg_stat_activity because they're only used in background
processes which don't currently appear in pg_stat_activity. We should
fix this either by creating a separate view for such information, or
else by deciding to include them in pg_stat_activity after all.

The sequence "configure; cd src/pl/plpython; make -j" failed due to
trying to compile plpython's .o files before the generated headers
finished building. (This is an important real-world case, since it's
the typical second step when building both plpython2 and plpython3.)
This happens because the submake-generated-headers target is not
placed in a way to make it a prerequisite to compiling the .o files.
Fix that.
Checking other uses of submake-generated-headers, I noted that the one
attached to pg_regress was similarly misplaced; but it's actually not
needed at all for pg_regress.o, rather regress.o, so move it to be a
prerequisite of that.
Back-patch to 9.6 where submake-generated-headers was introduced

Before pg_regress runs psql, set the application name to the test name.
Similarly, set the application name to the test file name in the TAP
tests. Also, set a default log_line_prefix that show the application
name, as well as the PID and a time stamp.
That way, the server log output can be correlated to the test input
files, making debugging a bit easier.
Historically, something like to_date('2009-06-40','YYYY-MM-DD') would
return '2009-07-10' because there was no prohibition on out-of-range
month or day numbers. This has been widely panned, and it also turns
out that Oracle throws an error in such cases. Since these functions
are nominally Oracle-compatibility features, let's change that.
There's no particular restriction on year (modulo the fact that the
scanner may not believe that more than 4 digits are year digits,
a matter to be addressed separately if at all). But we now check month,
day, hour, minute, second, and fractional-second fields, as well as
day-of-year and second-of-day fields if those are used.
Currently, no checks are made on ISO-8601-style week numbers or day
numbers; it's not very clear what the appropriate rules would be there,
and they're probably so little used that it's not worth sweating over.

Pushing an upper-level restriction clause into an unflattened
subquery-in-FROM is okay when the subquery contains no SRFs in its
targetlist, or when it does but the SRFs are unreferenced by the clause
*and the clause is not volatile*. Otherwise, we're changing the number
of times the clause is evaluated, which is bad for volatile quals, and
possibly changing the result, since a volatile qual might succeed for some
SRF output rows and not others despite not referencing any of the changing
columns. (Indeed, if the clause is something like "random() > 0.5", the
user is probably expecting exactly that behavior.)
We had most of these restrictions down, but not the one about the upper
clause not being volatile. Fix that, and add a regression test to
illustrate the expected behavior.
Although this is definitely a bug, it doesn't seem like back-patch
material, since possibly some users don't realize that the broken
behavior is broken and are relying on what happens now. Also, while
the added test is quite cheap in the wake of commit a4c35ea1c, it would
be much more expensive (or else messier) in older branches.

We weren't terribly consistent about whether to call Apple's OS "OS X"

ExecInitCteScan supposed that it didn't have to do anything to the extra
tuplestore read pointer it gets from tuplestore_alloc_read_pointer.
However, it needs this read pointer to be positioned at the start of the
tuplestore, while tuplestore_alloc_read_pointer is actually defined as
cloning the current position of read pointer 0. In normal situations
that accidentally works because we initialize the whole plan tree at once,
before anything gets read. But it fails in an EvalPlanQual recheck, as
illustrated in bug #14328 from Dima Pavlov. To fix, just forcibly rewind
the pointer after tuplestore_alloc_read_pointer. The cost of doing so is
negligible unless the tuplestore is already in TSS_READFILE state, which
wouldn't happen in normal cases. We could consider altering tuplestore's
API to make that case cheaper, but that would make for a more invasive
back-patch and it doesn't seem worth it.

Teach the parser to reject misplaced set-returning functions during parse
analysis using p_expr_kind, in much the same way as we do for aggregates
and window functions (cf commit eaccfded9). While this isn't complete
(it misses nesting-based restrictions), it's much better than the previous
error reporting for such cases, and it allows elimination of assorted
ad-hoc expression_returns_set() error checks. We could add nesting checks
later if it seems important to catch all cases at parse time.
There is one case the parser will now throw error for although previous
versions allowed it, which is SRFs in the tlist of an UPDATE. That never
behaved sensibly (since it's ill-defined which generated row should be
used to perform the update) and it's hard to see why it should not be
treated as an error. It's a release-note-worthy change though.
Also, add a new Query field hasTargetSRFs reporting whether there are
any SRFs in the targetlist (including GROUP BY/ORDER BY expressions).
The parser can now set that basically for free during parse analysis,
and we can use it in a number of places to avoid expression_returns_set
searches. (There will be more such checks soon.) In some places, this
allows decontorting the logic since it's no longer expensive to check for
SRFs in the tlist --- so I made the checks parallel to the handling of
hasAggs/hasWindowFuncs wherever it seemed appropriate.

When heap_lock_tuple decides to follow the update chain, it tried to
also lock any version of the tuple that was created by an update that
was subsequently rolled back. This is pointless, since for all intents
and purposes that tuple exists no more; and moreover it causes
misbehavior, as reported independently by Marko Tiikkaja and Marti
Raudsepp: some SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE queries may fail to return
the tuples, and assertion-enabled builds crash.
Fix by having heap_lock_updated_tuple test the xmin and return success
immediately if the tuple was created by an aborted transaction.
The condition where tuples become invisible occurs when an updated tuple
chain is followed by heap_lock_updated_tuple, which reports the problem
as HeapTupleSelfUpdated to its caller heap_lock_tuple, which in turn
propagates that code outwards possibly leading the calling code
(ExecLockRows) to believe that the tuple exists no longer.
Backpatch to 9.3. Only on 9.5 and newer this leads to a visible
failure, because of commit 27846f02c176; before that, heap_lock_tuple
skips the whole dance when the tuple is already locked by the same
transaction, because of the ancient HeapTupleSatisfiesUpdate behavior.
Still, the buggy condition may also exist in more convoluted scenarios
involving concurrent transactions, so it seems safer to fix the bug in
the old branches too.

Previously, if a schema was created by an extension, a normal pg_dump run
(not --binary-upgrade) would summarily skip every object in that schema.
In a case where an extension creates a schema and then users create other
objects within that schema, this does the wrong thing: we want pg_dump
to skip the schema but still create the non-extension-owned objects.
There's no easy way to fix this pre-9.6, because in earlier versions the
"dump" status for a schema is just a bool and there's no way to distinguish
"dump me" from "dump my members". However, as of 9.6 we do have enough
state to represent that, so this is a simple correction of the logic in
selectDumpableNamespace.

Previously, we failed to recognize Unicode characters above U+7FF as
being members of locale-dependent character classes such as [[:alpha:]].
(Actually, the same problem occurs for large pg_wchar values in any
multibyte encoding, but UTF8 is the only case people have actually
complained about.) It's impractical to get Spencer's original code to
handle character classes or ranges containing many thousands of characters,
because it insists on considering each member character individually at
regex compile time, whether or not the character will ever be of interest
at run time. To fix, choose a cutoff point MAX_SIMPLE_CHR below which
we process characters individually as before, and deal with entire ranges
or classes as single entities above that. We can actually make things
cheaper than before for chars below the cutoff, because the color map can
now be a simple linear array for those chars, rather than the multilevel
tree structure Spencer designed. It's more expensive than before for
chars above the cutoff, because we must do a binary search in a list of
high chars and char ranges used in the regex pattern, plus call iswalpha()
and friends for each locale-dependent character class used in the pattern.
However, multibyte encodings are normally designed to give smaller codes
to popular characters, so that we can expect that the slow path will be
taken relatively infrequently. In any case, the speed penalty appears
minor except when we have to apply iswalpha() etc. to high character codes
at runtime --- and the previous coding gave wrong answers for those cases,
so whether it was faster is moot.

To prevent possibly breaking indexes on enum columns, we must keep

can be sure that any such column is new in the current transaction.
Formerly, we enforced this by disallowing ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE

enum type had been created in the current transaction. This patch
removes that restriction, and instead insists that an uncommitted enum
value can't be referenced unless it belongs to an enum type created
in the same transaction as the value. Per discussion, this should be
a bit less onerous. It does require each function that could possibly
return a new enum value to SQL operations to check this restriction,

Mark the slot as dirty after reading changes using the SQL interface so that
users won't see repeated changes after a clean shutdown. Repeated changes still

After further reflection about the mess cleaned up in commit 39b691f25,
I decided the main bit of test coverage that was still missing was to
check that the non-default abbreviation-set files we supply are usable.
Add that.
Back-patch to supported branches, just because it seems like a good
idea to keep this all in sync.
split_to_stringlist() doesn't modify its first argument nor expect it
to remain valid after exit, so there's no need to duplicate the optarg
string at the call sites. Per Coverity. (This has been wrong all along,
but commit 052cc223d changed the useless calls from "strdup" to
"pg_strdup", which apparently made Coverity think it's a new bug.
It's not, but it's also not worth back-patching.)
Previously, we threw an error if a dynamic timezone abbreviation did not
match any abbreviation recorded in the referenced IANA time zone entry.
That seemed like a good consistency check at the time, but it turns out
that a number of the abbreviations in the IANA database are things that
Olson and crew made up out of whole cloth. Their current policy is to
remove such names in favor of using simple numeric offsets. Perhaps
unsurprisingly, a lot of these made-up abbreviations have varied in meaning
over time, which meant that our commit b2cbced9e and later changes made
them into dynamic abbreviations. So with newer IANA database versions
that don't mention these abbreviations at all, we fail, as reported in bug
#14307 from Neil Anderson. It's worse than just a few unused-in-the-wild
abbreviations not working, because the pg_timezone_abbrevs view stops
working altogether (since its underlying function tries to compute the
whole view result in one call).
We considered deleting these abbreviations from our abbreviations list, but
the problem with that is that we can't stay ahead of possible future IANA
changes. Instead, let's leave the abbreviations list alone, and treat any
"orphaned" dynamic abbreviation as just meaning the referenced time zone.
It will behave a bit differently than it used to, in that you can't any
longer override the zone's standard vs. daylight rule by using the "wrong"
abbreviation of a pair, but that's better than failing entirely. (Also,
this solution can be interpreted as adding a small new feature, which is
that any abbreviation a user wants can be defined as referencing a time
zone name.)
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this problem affects all
of them when using tzdata 2016f or newer.

This introduces a numeric sum accumulator, which performs better than
repeatedly calling add_var(). The performance comes from using wider digits
and delaying carry propagation, tallying positive and negative values
separately, and avoiding a round of palloc/pfree on every value. This
speeds up SUM(), as well as other standard aggregates like AVG() and
STDDEV() that also calculate a sum internally.

Where possible, use palloc or pg_malloc instead; otherwise, insert
explicit NULL checks.
Generally speaking, these are places where an actual OOM is quite
unlikely, either because they're in client programs that don't

Commit f0c7b789a added a test case in case.sql that creates and then drops
both an '=' operator and the type it's for. Given the right timing, that
can cause a "cache lookup failed for type" failure in concurrent sessions,
which see the '=' operator as a potential match for '=' in a query, but
then the type is gone by the time they inquire into its properties.

ExecReScanAgg's check for whether it could re-use a previously calculated
hashtable neglected the possibility that the Agg node might reference
PARAM_EXEC Params that are not referenced by its input plan node. That's
okay if the Params are in upper tlist or qual expressions; but if one
appears in aggregate input expressions, then the hashtable contents need
to be recomputed when the Param's value changes.
To avoid unnecessary performance degradation in the case of a Param that
isn't within an aggregate input, add logic to the planner to determine
which Params are within aggregate inputs. This requires a new field in
struct Agg, but fortunately we never write plans to disk, so this isn't
an initdb-forcing change.

INSERT .. ON CONFLICT runs a pre-check of the possible conflicting
constraints before performing the actual speculative insertion. In case
the inserted tuple included TOASTed columns the ON CONFLICT condition
would be handled correctly in case the conflict was caught by the
pre-check, but if two transactions entered the speculative insertion
phase at the same time, one would have to re-try, and the code for
aborting a speculative insertion did not handle deleting the
speculatively inserted TOAST datums correctly.
TOAST deletion would fail with "ERROR: attempted to delete invisible
tuple" as we attempted to remove the TOAST tuples using
simple_heap_delete which reasoned that the given tuples should not be
visible to the command that wrote them.
This commit updates the heap_abort_speculative() function which aborts
the conflicting tuple to use itself, via toast_delete, for deleting
associated TOAST datums. Like before, the inserted toast rows are not
marked as being speculative.

NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision
and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had
something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value,
but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed,
any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format;
which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000.
Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit
on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was
especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as
long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to
avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what
is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code.
Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the
number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore
hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format
limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want.
In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what
the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches.

As future-proofing, define the SQL API to not assume that properties that

must be; instead, expose them only when inquiring about a specific index
or even specific index column. Also provide the ability for an index
AM to override the behavior.

ExecEvalCase() tried to save a cycle or two by passing
&econtext->caseValue_isNull as the isNull argument to its sub-evaluation of
the CASE value expression. If that subexpression itself contained a CASE,
then *isNull was an alias for econtext->caseValue_isNull within the
recursive call of ExecEvalCase(), leading to confusion about whether the
inner call's caseValue was null or not. In the worst case this could lead
to a core dump due to dereferencing a null pointer. Fix by not assigning
to the global variable until control comes back from the subexpression.
Also, avoid using the passed-in isNull pointer transiently for evaluation
of WHEN expressions. (Either one of these changes would have been
sufficient to fix the known misbehavior, but it's clear now that each of
these choices was in itself dangerous coding practice and best avoided.
There do not seem to be any similar hazards elsewhere in execQual.c.)
Also, it was possible for inlining of a SQL function that implements the
equality operator used for a CASE comparison to result in one CASE
expression's CaseTestExpr node being inserted inside another CASE
expression. This would certainly result in wrong answers since the
improperly nested CaseTestExpr would be caused to return the inner CASE's
comparison value not the outer's. If the CASE values were of different
data types, a crash might result; moreover such situations could be abused
to allow disclosure of portions of server memory. To fix, teach
inline_function to check for "bare" CaseTestExpr nodes in the arguments of
a function to be inlined, and avoid inlining if there are any.

Previously, if an INSERT with multiple rows of VALUES had indirection
(array subscripting or field selection) in its target-columns list, the
parser handled that by applying transformAssignedExpr() to each element
of each VALUES row independently. This led to having ArrayRef assignment
nodes or FieldStore nodes in each row of the VALUES RTE. That works for
simple cases, but in bug #14265 Nuri Boardman points out that it fails
if there are multiple assignments to elements/fields of the same target
column. For such cases to work, rewriteTargetListIU() has to nest the
ArrayRefs or FieldStores together to produce a single expression to be
assigned to the column. But it failed to find them in the top-level
targetlist and issued an error about "multiple assignments to same column".
We could possibly fix this by teaching the rewriter to apply
rewriteTargetListIU to each VALUES row separately, but that would be messy
(it would change the output rowtype of the VALUES RTE, for example) and
inefficient. Instead, let's fix the parser so that the VALUES RTE outputs
are just the user-specified values, cast to the right type if necessary,
and then the ArrayRefs or FieldStores are applied in the top-level
targetlist to Vars representing the RTE's outputs. This is the same
parsetree representation already used for similar cases with INSERT/SELECT
syntax, so it allows simplifications in ruleutils.c, which no longer needs
to treat INSERT-from-multiple-VALUES as its own special case.
This implementation works by applying transformAssignedExpr to the VALUES
entries as before, and then stripping off any ArrayRefs or FieldStores it
adds. With lots of VALUES rows it would be noticeably more efficient to
not add those nodes in the first place. But that's just an optimization
not a bug fix, and there doesn't seem to be any good way to do it without
significant refactoring. (A non-invasive answer would be to apply
transformAssignedExpr + stripping to just the first VALUES row, and then
just forcibly cast remaining rows to the same data types exposed in the
first row. But this way would lead to different, not-INSERT-specific
errors being reported in casting failure cases, so it doesn't seem very
nice.) So leave that for later; this patch at least isn't making the
per-row parsing work worse, and it does make the finished parsetree
smaller, saving rewriter and planner work.
Catversion bump because stored rules containing such INSERTs would need
to change. Because of that, no back-patch, even though this is a very
long-standing bug.

corresponding to that recovery specification. If for whatever reason
more WAL is written between the two queries, the recovery specification
is earlier than the xlog position used by the query in the test harness,
so we wait forever, leading to test failures. Deal with this by using a

This coding pattern creates a race condition, because if an interesting
interrupt happens after we've checked InterruptPending but before we reset
our latch, the latch-setting done by the signal handler would get lost,
and then we might block at WaitLatch in the next iteration without ever
noticing the interrupt condition. You can put the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS
before WaitLatch or after ResetLatch, but not between them.
Aside from fixing the bugs, add some explanatory comments to latch.h
to perhaps forestall the next person from making the same mistake.
In HEAD, also replace gather_readnext's direct call of
HandleParallelMessages with CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS. It does not seem clean
or useful for this one caller to bypass ProcessInterrupts and go straight
to HandleParallelMessages; not least because that fails to consider the

With the refactoring of pg_dump to handle components, getOwnedSeqs needs
to be a bit more intelligent regarding which components to dump when.
Specifically, we can't simply use the owning table's components as the
set of components to dump as the table might only be including certain
components while all components of the sequence should be dumped, for
example, when the table is a member of an extension while the sequence
is not.
Handle this by combining the set of components to be dumped for the
sequence explicitly and those to be dumped for the table when setting
the components to be dumped for the sequence.
Also add a number of regression tests around this to, hopefully, catch
any future changes which break the expected behavior.

Commits 4452000f3 et al established semantics for NullTest.argisrow that
are a bit different from its initial conception: rather than being merely
a cache of whether we've determined the input to have composite type,
the flag now has the further meaning that we should apply field-by-field
testing as per the standard's definition of IS [NOT] NULL. If argisrow
is false and yet the input has composite type, the construct instead has
the semantics of IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM NULL. Update the comments in
primnodes.h to clarify this, and fix ruleutils.c and deparse.c to print
such cases correctly. In the case of ruleutils.c, this merely results in
cosmetic changes in EXPLAIN output, since the case can't currently arise
in stored rules. However, it represents a live bug for deparse.c, which
would formerly have sent a remote query that had semantics different
from the local behavior. (From the user's standpoint, this means that
testing a remote nested-composite column for null-ness could have had
unexpected recursive behavior much like that fixed in 4452000f3.)
In a related but somewhat independent fix, make plancat.c set argisrow
to false in all NullTest expressions constructed to represent "attnotnull"
constructs. Since attnotnull is actually enforced as a simple null-value
check, this is a more accurate representation of the semantics; we were
previously overpromising what it meant for composite columns, which might
possibly lead to incorrect planner optimizations. (It seems that what the
SQL spec expects a NOT NULL constraint to mean is an IS NOT NULL test, so
arguably we are violating the spec and should fix attnotnull to do the
other thing. If we ever do, this part should get reverted.)

ExecMakeTableFunctionResult(), which is used in SELECT FROM function(...)
cases, formerly treated a simple NULL output from a function that both
returnsSet and returnsTuple as a violation of the SRF protocol. What seems
better is to treat a NULL output as equivalent to ROW(NULL,NULL,...).
Without this, cases such as SELECT FROM unnest(...) on an array of
composite are vulnerable to unexpected and not-very-helpful failures.
Old code comments here suggested an alternative of just ignoring
simple-NULL outputs, but that doesn't seem very principled.
This change had been hung up for a long time due to uncertainty about
how much we wanted to buy into the equivalence of simple NULL and

The SQL standard appears to specify that IS [NOT] NULL's tests of field
nullness are non-recursive, ie, we shouldn't consider that a composite
field with value ROW(NULL,NULL) is null for this purpose.
ExecEvalNullTest got this right, but eval_const_expressions did not,
leading to weird inconsistencies depending on whether the expression
was such that the planner could apply constant folding.
Also, adjust the docs to mention that IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM NULL can be
used as a substitute test if a simple null check is wanted for a rowtype
argument. That motivated reordering things so that IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM
is described before IS [NOT] NULL. In HEAD, I went a bit further and added
a table showing all the comparison-related predicates.

To ensure that "make installcheck" can be used safely against an existing
installation, we need to be careful about what global object names
(database, role, and tablespace names) we use; otherwise we might
accidentally clobber important objects. There's been a weak consensus that
test databases should have names including "regression", and that test role
names should start with "regress_", but we didn't have any particular rule
about tablespace names; and neither of the other rules was followed with
any consistency either.
This commit moves us a long way towards having a hard-and-fast rule that
regression test databases must have names including "regression", and that
test role and tablespace names must start with "regress_". It's not
completely there because I did not touch some test cases in rolenames.sql
that test creation of special role names like "session_user". That will
require some rethinking of exactly what we want to test, whereas the intent
of this patch is just to hit all the cases in which the needed renamings
are cosmetic.
There is no enforcement mechanism in this patch either, but if we don't

On second thought, we should probably do at least a minimal check that
the constructed index is valid, since the big problem with the most
recent breakage was not whether the sorting was correct but that the
index had incorrect hash codes placed in it.
We've broken this code path at least twice in the past, so it's prudent
to have a test case that covers it. To allow exercising the code path
without creating a very large (and slow to run) test case, redefine the
sort threshold to be bounded by maintenance_work_mem as well as the number
of available buffers. While at it, fix an ancient oversight that when
building a temp index, the number of available buffers is not NBuffers but
NLocBuffer. Also, if assertions are enabled, apply a direct test that the
sort actually does return the tuples in the expected order.

When key-share locking a tuple that has been not-key-updated, and the
update is a committed transaction, in some cases we raised
serializability errors:
ERROR: could not serialize access due to concurrent update
Because the key-share doesn't conflict with the update, the error is
unnecessary and inconsistent with the case that the update hasn't
committed yet. This causes problems for some usage patterns, even if it
can be claimed that it's sufficient to retry the aborted transaction:
given a steady stream of updating transactions and a long locking
transaction, the long transaction can be starved indefinitely despite
multiple retries.
To fix, we recognize that HeapTupleSatisfiesUpdate can return
HeapTupleUpdated when an updating transaction has committed, and that we
need to deal with that case exactly as if it were a non-committed
update: verify whether the two operations conflict, and if not, carry on
normally. If they do conflict, however, there is a difference: in the
HeapTupleBeingUpdated case we can just sleep until the concurrent
transaction is gone, while in the HeapTupleUpdated case this is not
possible and we must raise an error instead.
Per trouble report from Olivier Dony.
In addition to a couple of test cases that verify the changed behavior,
I added a test case to verify the behavior that remains unchanged,
namely that errors are raised when a update that modifies the key is
used. That must still generate serializability errors. One
pre-existing test case changes behavior; per discussion, the new
behavior is actually the desired one.

Test the external-sort code path in CLUSTER for two different scenarios:
multiple-pass external sorting, and the best case for replacement
selection, where only one run is produced, so that no merge is required.
This test would have caught the bug fixed in commit 1b0fc8507, at
least when run with valgrind enabled.
In passing, add a short-circuit test in plan_cluster_use_sort() to make
dead certain that it selects sorting when enable_indexscan is off. As
things stand, that would happen anyway, but it seems like good future
proofing for this test.

ExecInsertIndexTuples treated an exclusion constraint as subject to
noDupErr processing even when it was not listed in arbiterIndexes, and
would therefore not error out for a conflict in such a constraint, instead
returning it as an arbiter-index failure. That led to an infinite loop in
ExecInsert, since ExecCheckIndexConstraints ignored the index as-intended
and therefore didn't throw the expected error. To fix, make the exclusion
constraint code path use the same condition as the index_insert call does
to decide whether no-error-for-duplicates behavior is appropriate. While
at it, refactor a little bit to avoid unnecessary list_member_oid calls.
(That surely wouldn't save anything worth noticing, but I find the code
a bit clearer this way.)

In commit 915b703e1 I gave get_agg_clause_costs() the responsibility of
marking Aggref nodes with the appropriate aggtranstype. I failed to notice
that where it was being called from, it might see only a subset of the
Aggref nodes that were in the original targetlist. Specifically, if there
are duplicate aggregate calls in the tlist, either make_sort_input_target
or make_window_input_target might put just a single instance into the
grouping_target, and then only that instance would get marked. Fix by
moving the call back into grouping_planner(), before we start building
assorted PathTargets from the query tlist. Per report from Stefan Huehner.

In commit 68fa28f77 I tried to teach SS_finalize_plan() to cope with
initPlans attached anywhere in the plan tree, by dint of moving its
handling of those into the recursion in finalize_plan(). It turns out that
that doesn't really work: if a lower-level plan node emits an initPlan
output parameter in its targetlist, it's legitimate for upper levels to
reference those Params --- and at the point where this code runs, those
references look just like the Param itself, so finalize_plan() quite
properly rejects them as being in the wrong place. We could lobotomize
the checks enough to allow that, probably, but then it's not clear that
we'd have any meaningful check for misplaced Params at all. What seems
better, at least in the near term, is to tweak standard_planner() a bit
so that initPlans are never placed anywhere but the topmost plan node
for a query level, restoring the behavior that occurred pre-9.6. Possibly
we can do better if this code is ever merged into setrefs.c: then it would
be possible to check a Param's placement only when we'd failed to replace
it with a Var referencing a child plan node's targetlist.
BTW, I'm now suspicious that finalize_plan is doing the wrong thing by
returning the node's allParam rather than extParam to be incorporated
in the parent node's set of used parameters. However, it makes no
difference given that initPlans only appear at top level, so I'll leave
that alone for now.
Another thing that emerged from this is that standard_planner() needs
to check for initPlans before deciding that it's safe to stick a Gather
node on top in force_parallel_mode mode. We previously guarded against
that by deciding the plan wasn't wholePlanParallelSafe if any subplans
had been found, but after commit 5ce5e4a12 it's necessary to have this
substitute test, because path parallel_safe markings don't account for
initPlans. (Normally, we'd have decided the paths weren't safe anyway
due to appearances of SubPlan nodes, Params, or CTE scans somewhere in
the tree --- but it's possible for those all to be optimized away while
initPlans still remain.)

As of 9.6, pg_regress doesn't build unless storage/lwlocknames.h has been
created; but there was nothing forcing that to happen if you just went into
src/test/regress/ and built there. We previously had a similar complaint
about plpython.
To fix in a way that won't break next time we invent a generated header,
make src/backend/Makefile expose a phony target for updating all the
include files it builds, and invoke that before building pg_regress or
plpython. In principle, maybe we ought to invoke that everywhere; but
it would add a lot of usually-useless make cycles, so let's just do it
in the places where people have complained.
I made a couple of cosmetic adjustments in src/backend/Makefile as well,
to deal with the generated headers in consistent orders.

Commit 3fc6e2d7f5 introduced new "upper"
RelOptInfo structures but didn't set consider_parallel for them
correctly, a point I completely missed when reviewing it. Later,
commit e06a38965b made the situation
worse by doing it incorrectly for the grouping relation. Try to
straighten all of that out. Along the way, get rid of the annoying
wholePlanParallelSafe flag, which was only necessarily because of
the fact that upper planning stages didn't use paths at the time
that code was written.
The most important immediate impact of these changes is that
force_parallel_mode will provide useful test coverage in quite a few
more scenarios than it did previously, but it's also necessary
preparation for fixing some problems related to subqueries.
Patch by me, reviewed by Tom Lane.
In non-text output formats, parallelized aggregates were reporting
"Partial" or "Finalize" as a field named "Operation", which might be all
right in the absence of any context --- but other plan node types use that
field to report SQL-visible semantics, such as Select/Insert/Update/Delete.
So that naming choice didn't seem good to me. I changed it to "Partial
Mode".
Also, the field did not appear at all for a non-parallelized Agg plan node,
which is contrary to expectation in non-text formats. We're notionally
producing objects that conform to a schema, so the set of fields for a
given node type and EXPLAIN mode should be well-defined. I set it up to
fill in "Simple" in such cases.
Other fields that were added for parallel query, namely "Parallel Aware"
and Gather's "Single Copy", had not gotten the word on that point either.
Make them appear always in non-text output.
Also, the latter two fields were nominally producing boolean output, but
were getting it wrong, because bool values shouldn't be quoted in JSON or
YAML. Somehow we'd not needed an ExplainPropertyBool formatting subroutine
before 9.6; but now we do, so invent it.

If we need to use a gating Result node for pseudoconstant quals,
create_scan_plan() intentionally suppresses use_physical_tlist's checks
on whether there are matches for sortgroupref labels, on the grounds that
we don't need matches because we can label the Result's projection output
properly. However, it then called apply_pathtarget_labeling_to_tlist
anyway. This oversight was harmless when written, but in commit aeb9ae645
I made that function throw an error if there was no match. Thus, the
combination of a table scan, pseudoconstant quals, and a non-simple-Var
sortgroupref column threw the dreaded "ORDER/GROUP BY expression not found
in targetlist" error. To fix, just skip applying the labeling in this
case. Per report from Rushabh Lathia.

Previously, these commands always planned the given query and went through
executor startup before deciding not to actually run the query if WITH NO
DATA is specified. This behavior is problematic for pg_dump because it
may cause errors to be raised that we would rather not see before a
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW command is issued. See for example bug #13907
from Marian Krucina. This change is not sufficient to fix that particular
bug, because we also need to tweak pg_dump to issue the REFRESH later,
but it's a necessary step on the way.
A user-visible side effect of doing things this way is that the returned
command tag for WITH NO DATA cases will now be "CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW"
or "CREATE TABLE AS", not "SELECT 0". We could preserve the old behavior
but it would take more code, and arguably that was just an implementation
artifact not intended behavior anyhow.
In 9.5 and HEAD, also get rid of the static variable CreateAsReladdr, which
was trouble waiting to happen; there is not any prohibition on nested
CREATE commands.

The original specification for this called for the deserialization function
to have signature "deserialize(serialtype) returns transtype", which is a
security violation if transtype is INTERNAL (which it always would be in
practice) and serialtype is not (which ditto). The patch blithely overrode
the opr_sanity check for that, which was sloppy-enough work in itself,
but the indisputable reason this cannot be allowed to stand is that CREATE
FUNCTION will reject such a signature and thus it'd be impossible for
extensions to create parallelizable aggregates.
The minimum fix to make the signature type-safe is to add a second, dummy
argument of type INTERNAL. But to lock it down a bit more and make misuse
of INTERNAL-accepting functions less likely, let's get rid of the ability
to specify a "serialtype" for an aggregate and just say that the only
useful serialtype is BYTEA --- which, in practice, is the only interesting
value anyway, due to the usefulness of the send/recv infrastructure for
this purpose. That means we only have to allow "serialize(internal)
returns bytea" and "deserialize(bytea, internal) returns internal" as
the signatures for these support functions.
In passing fix bogus signature of int4_avg_combine, which I found thanks
to adding an opr_sanity check on combinefunc signatures.

The annotation for "ERROR: language "foo" is not trusted" used to say

poorly thought out. For one thing, it's not a hint about what to do,

fails to clarify things much, because there's a missing step in the
chain of reasoning. I think it's more useful to say "GRANT and REVOKE

untrusted languages".
It's been like this for a long time, but given the lack of previous

The previous code neglected the fact that the scanjoin_target might
carry sortgroupref labelings that we need to absorb. Instead, do
create_projection_path() unconditionally, and tweak the path's cost
estimate after the fact. (I'm now convinced that we ought to refactor
the way we account for sometimes not needing a separate projection step,
but right now is not the time for that sort of cleanup.)
Problem identified by Amit Kapila, patch by me.
Commit 04ae11f62e removed some broken
code to apply the scan/join target to partial paths, but its theory
that this processing step is totally unnecessary turns out to be wrong.
Put similar code back again, but this time, check for parallel-safety
and avoid in-place modifications to paths that may already have been
used as part of some other path.
(This is not an entirely elegant solution to this problem; it might
be better, for example, to postpone generate_gather_paths for the
topmost scan/join rel until after the scan/join target has been
applied. But this is not the time for such redesign work.)

If you really want to vacuum every single page in the relation,
regardless of apparent visibility status or anything else, you can use
this option. In previous releases, this behavior could be achieved
using VACUUM (FREEZE), but because we can now recognize all-frozen
pages as not needing to be frozen again, that no longer works. There
should be no need for routine use of this option, but maybe bugs or
disaster recovery will necessitate its use.

In commit 8c1d9d56e9, I attempted to
add a regression test that would fail if the target list was pushed
into a parallel worker, but due to brain fade on my part, it just
randomly fails whether anything bad or not, because the error check
inside the parallel_restricted() function tests whether there is
*any process in the system* that is not connected to a client, not
whether the process running the query is not connected to a client.
A little experimentation has left me pessimistic about the
prospects of doing better here in a short amount of time, so let's
just fall back to checking that the plan is as we expect and leave
the execution-time check for another day.
Commit 14a254fb52 managed not to
exercise the code it was intended to test, and the comment explaining
why no "parallel worker" line showed up in the context wasn't right.
Amit Kapila, tweaked by me per Amit's analysis.
To achieve this, ANALYZE the data table before querying it, as suggested
by Tom Lane. On my system, this enables the test to pass with 128 kB of
work_mem (a value with which other tests fail -- so it seems good
enough).

accomplish in time for beta2. In my judgment reviewing the rewrite will
be easier to accomplish starting from a clean slate, so let's temporarily
revert what's there now. This also leaves us in a safe state if it turns
out to be necessary to postpone the rewrite to the next development cycle.

dumpAccessMethod() didn't get the memo that we now have a bitfield for
the components which should be dumped instead of a simple boolean.
Correct that by checking if the relevant bit is set for each component
being dumped out (and not dumping it out if it isn't set).
This corrects an issue where CREATE ACCESS METHOD commands were being
included in non-binary-upgrades when an extension included an access
method (as the bloom extensions does).
Also add a regression test to make sure that we only dump out the
ACCESS METHOD commands, when they are part of an extension, when doing
a binary upgrade.
Pointed out by Thom Brown.
Further thought about bug #14174 motivated me to try the case of a
R/W datum being returned from a VALUES list, and sure enough it was
broken. Fix that.
Also add a regression test case exercising the same scenario for
FunctionScan. That's not broken right now, because the function's
result will get shoved into a tuplestore between generation and use;
but it could easily become broken whenever we get around to optimizing
FunctionScan better.
There don't seem to be any other places where we put the result of
expression evaluation into a virtual tuple slot that could then be
the source for Vars of further expression evaluation, so I think
this is the end of this bug.
If a plan node output expression returns an "expanded" datum, and that
output column is referenced in more than one place in upper-level plan
nodes, we need to ensure that what is returned is a read-only reference
not a read/write reference. Otherwise one of the referencing sites could
scribble on or even delete the expanded datum before we have evaluated the
others. Commit 1dc5ebc907, which introduced this feature, supposed
that it'd be sufficient to make SubqueryScan nodes force their output
columns to read-only state. The folly of that was revealed by bug #14174
from Andrew Gierth, and really should have been immediately obvious
considering that the planner will happily optimize SubqueryScan nodes
out of the plan without any regard for this issue.
The safest fix seems to be to make ExecProject() force its results into
read-only state; that will cover every case where a plan node returns
expression results. Actually we can delegate this to ExecTargetList()
since we can recursively assume that plain Vars will not reference
read-write datums. That should keep the extra overhead down to something
minimal. We no longer need ExecMakeSlotContentsReadOnly(), which was
introduced only in support of the idea that just a few plan node types
would need to do this.
In the future it would be nice to have the planner account for this problem
and inject force-to-read-only expression evaluation nodes into only the
places where there's a risk of multiple evaluation. That's not a suitable
solution for 9.5 or even 9.6 at this point, though.

As part of upper planner pathification (commit 3fc6e2d7f5) I redid
createplan.c's approach to the physical-tlist optimization, in which scan
nodes are allowed to return exactly the underlying table's columns so as
to save doing a projection step at runtime. The logic was intentionally
more aggressive than before about applying the optimization, which is
generally a good thing, but Andres Freund found a case in which it got
too aggressive. Namely, if any column is referenced more than once in
the parent plan node's sorting or grouping column list, we can't optimize
because then that column would need to have more than one ressortgroupref
label, and we only have space for one.
Add logic to detect this situation in use_physical_tlist(), and also add
some error checking in apply_pathtarget_labeling_to_tlist(), which this
example proves was being overly cavalier about whether what it was doing
made any sense.
The added test case exposes the problem only because we do not eliminate
duplicate grouping keys. That might be something to fix someday, but it
doesn't seem like appropriate post-beta work.

subquery_planner() failed to apply expression preprocessing to the
arbiterElems and arbiterWhere fields of an OnConflictExpr. No doubt the
theory was that this wasn't necessary because we don't actually try to
execute those expressions; but that's wrong, because it results in failure
to match to index expressions or index predicates that are changed at all
by preprocessing. Per bug #14132 from Reynold Smith.
Also add pullup_replace_vars processing for onConflictWhere. Perhaps
it's impossible to have a subquery reference there, but I'm not exactly
convinced; and even if true today it's a failure waiting to happen.
Also add some comments to other places where one or another field of
OnConflictExpr is intentionally ignored, with explanation as to why it's
okay to do so.
Also, catalog/dependency.c failed to record any dependency on the named
constraint in ON CONFLICT ON CONSTRAINT, allowing such a constraint to
be dropped while rules exist that depend on it, and allowing pg_dump to
dump such a rule before the constraint it refers to. The normal execution
path managed to error out reasonably for a dangling constraint reference,
but ruleutils.c dumped core; so in addition to fixing the omission, add
a protective check in ruleutils.c, since we can't retroactively add a
dependency in existing databases.
