It seems better to deal with this by explicit annotations on the
fields in question, instead of magic knowledge embedded in the
script. While that creates a risk-of-omission from failing to
annotate fields, the preceding commit should catch any such
oversights.

Check that if we generate a call to copy, compare, write, or read
a specific node type, that node type does have the appropriate
support function. (This doesn't protect against trying to invoke
nonexistent code when considering generic field types such as
"Node *", but it seems like a useful check anyway.)
Check that array_size() refers to a field appearing earlier in
the struct. Aside from catching obvious errors like a misspelled
field name, this protects against a more subtle mistake: if the
size field appears later in the struct than the array field, then
compare and read functions would misbehave. There is actually
exactly that situation in PlannerInfo, but it's okay since we
do not need compare or read functionality for that (today anyway).

This switch impacts 9 patterns related to a SQL-mandated special syntax
for function calls:
- LOCALTIME [ ( typmod ) ]
- LOCALTIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_TIME [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_TIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_DATE
Five new entries are added to pg_proc to compensate the removal of
SQLValueFunction to provide backward-compatibility and making this
change transparent for the end-user (for example for the attribute
generated when a keyword is specified in a SELECT or in a FROM clause
without an alias, or when specifying something else than an Iconst to
the parser).
The parser included a set of checks coming from the files in charge of
holding the C functions used for the SQLValueFunction calls (as of
transformSQLValueFunction()), which are now moved within each function's
execution path, so this reduces the dependencies between the execution
and the parsing steps. As of this change, all the SQL keywords use the
same paths for their work, relying only on COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. Like
fb32748, no performance difference has been noticed, while the perf
profiles get reduced with ExecEvalSQLValueFunction() gone.

This commit changes six SQL keywords to use COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX rather
than relying on SQLValueFunction:
- CURRENT_ROLE
- CURRENT_USER
- USER
- SESSION_USER
- CURRENT_CATALOG
- CURRENT_SCHEMA
Among the six, "user", "current_role" and "current_catalog" require
specific SQL functions to allow ruleutils.c to map them to the SQL
keywords these require when using COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. Having
pg_proc.proname match with the keyword ensures that the compatibility
remains the same when projecting any of these keywords in a FROM clause
to an attribute name when an alias is not specified. This is covered by
the tests added in 2e0d80c, making sure that a correct mapping happens
with each SQL keyword. The three others (current_schema, session_user
and current_user) already have pg_proc entries for this job, so this
brings more consistency between the way such keywords are treated in the
parser, the executor and ruleutils.c.
SQLValueFunction is reduced to half its contents after this change,
simplifying its logic a bit as there is no need to enforce a C collation
anymore for the entries returning a name as a result. I have made a few
performance tests, with a million-ish calls to these keywords without
seeing a difference in run-time or in perf profiles
(ExecEvalSQLValueFunction() is removed from the profiles). The
remaining SQLValueFunctions are now related to timestamps and dates.

Implement a data structure that is a List of Bitmapsets, which is
essentially a 2-D boolean array except that the rows need not all
be the same width. Operations such as union and intersection are
meaningful for these, just as they are for Bitmapsets. Eventually
we might build many of the same operations that we have written for
Bitmapsets, but for the first use-case we just need a few.
That first use-case is for antijoin detection: reduce_outer_joins
needs to find the set of Vars that are certain to be non-null in a
successfully joined (not null-extended) left join row, and also
find the set of Vars subject to higher-level IS NULL constraints,
and intersect them. We had been doing this by making Lists of
the Var nodes and then using list_intersect, which works but is
pretty inefficient compared to a bitmapset-like intersection.
Potentially it's O(N^2) if there are a lot of Vars involved,
which fortunately there generally aren't; still it's not great.
Moreover, that method requires the Vars of interest to be exactly
equal() in the join condition and the upper IS NULL condition,
which is problematic for my WIP patch that labels Vars according
to which outer joins have possibly nulled them.

Add a NodeTag field to struct Bitmapset. This is free because of
alignment considerations on 64-bit hardware. While it adds some
space on 32-bit machines, we aren't optimizing for that case anymore.
The advantage is that data structures such as Lists of Bitmapsets
are now first-class objects to the Node infrastructure, and don't
require special-case code to handle.
This patch includes removal of one such special case, in indxpath.c:
bms_equal_any() can now be replaced by list_member(). There may be
more existing code that could be simplified, but I didn't look very
hard. We also get to drop the read_write_ignore annotations on a
couple of RelOptInfo fields.
The outfuncs/readfuncs support is arranged so that nothing changes
in the string representation of a Bitmapset field; therefore, this
doesn't need a catversion bump.

There are still some alignment-related failures in the buildfarm,
which might or might not be able to be fixed quickly, but I've also
just realized that it increased the size of many WAL records by 4 bytes
because a block reference contains a RelFileLocator. The effect of that
hasn't been studied or discussed, so revert for now.
RelFileNumbers are now assigned using a separate counter, instead of
being assigned from the OID counter. This counter never wraps around:
if all 2^56 possible RelFileNumbers are used, an internal error
occurs. As the cluster is limited to 2^64 total bytes of WAL, this
limitation should not cause a problem in practice.
If the counter were 64 bits wide rather than 56 bits wide, we would
need to increase the width of the BufferTag, which might adversely
impact buffer lookup performance. Also, this lets us use bigint for
pg_class.relfilenode and other places where these values are exposed
at the SQL level without worrying about overflow.
This should remove the need to keep "tombstone" files around until
the next checkpoint when relations are removed. We do that to keep
RelFileNumbers from being recycled, but now that won't happen
anyway. However, this patch doesn't actually change anything in
this area; it just makes it possible for a future patch to do so.

Historically, outToken has represented both NULL and empty-string
strings as "<>", which readfuncs.c then read as NULL, thus failing
to preserve empty-string fields accurately. Remarkably, this has
not caused any serious problems yet, but let's fix it.
We'll keep the "<>" notation for NULL, and use """" for empty string,
because that matches other notational choices already in use.
An actual input string of """" is converted to "\""" (this was true
already, apparently as a hangover from an ancient time when string

The main parser checks whether a literal fits into an int when
deciding whether it should be put into an Integer or Float node. The
parser processes integer literals without signs. So a most-negative
integer literal will not fit into Integer and will end up as a Float
node.
The node tokenizer did this differently. It included the sign when
checking whether the literal fit into int. So a most-negative integer
would indeed fit that way and end up as an Integer node.
In order to preserve the node structure correctly, we need the node
tokenizer to also analyze integer literals without sign.
There are a number of test cases in the regression tests that have a
most-negative integer argument of some utility statement, so this

Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle
it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow
incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for
developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other
issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together
they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system.
After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a
good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects.
We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of
the new build system and mature it in tree.
This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports
building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For
Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for
incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but
building slower).
Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM
bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits
requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only
extensions) are not yet addressed.
When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual
studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support
MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism.
The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon
after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the
autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at
least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported
versions build with meson.

expression_tree_walker and allied functions have traditionally
declared their callback functions as, say, "bool (*walker) ()"
to allow for variation in the declared types of the callback
functions' context argument. This is apparently going to be
forbidden by the next version of the C standard, and the latest
version of clang warns about that. In any case it's always
been pretty poor for error-detection purposes, so fixing it is
a good thing to do.
What we want to do is change the callback argument declarations to
be like "bool (*walker) (Node *node, void *context)", which is
correct so far as expression_tree_walker and friends are concerned,
but not change the actual callback functions. Strict compliance with
the C standard would require changing them to declare their arguments
as "void *context" and then cast to the appropriate context struct
type internally. That'd be very invasive and it would also introduce
a bunch of opportunities for future bugs, since we'd no longer have
any check that the correct sort of context object is passed by outside
callers or internal recursion cases. Therefore, we're just going
to ignore the standard's position that "void *" isn't necessarily
compatible with struct pointers. No machine built in the last forty
or so years actually behaves that way, so it's not worth introducing
bug hazards for compatibility with long-dead hardware.
Therefore, to silence these compiler warnings, introduce a layer of
macro wrappers that cast the supplied function name to the official
argument type. Thanks to our use of -Wcast-function-type, this will
still produce a warning if the supplied function is seriously
incompatible with the required signature, without going as far as
the official spec restriction does.
This method fixes the problem without any need for source code changes
outside nodeFuncs.h/.c. However, it is an ABI break because the
physically called functions now have names ending in "_impl". Hence
we can only fix it this way in HEAD. In the back branches, we'll have
to settle for disabling -Wdeprecated-non-prototype.

Since WRITE_NODE_FIELD() output always starts with a space, we don't
need to go out of our way to print another space right before it.
This change is only for visual appearance; the tokenizer on the
reading side would read it the same way (but there is no read support
for A_Expr at this time anyway).
As of 897795240c, check constraints can
be declared invalid. But that patch didn't update _outConstraint() to
also show the relevant struct fields (which were only applicable to
foreign keys before that). This currently only affects debugging
output, so no impact in practice.
The set of fields printed by _outConstraint() in the CONSTR_IDENTITY
case didn't match the set of fields actually used in that case. (The
code was probably uncarefully copied from the CONSTR_DEFAULT case.)
Fix that by using the right set of fields. Since there is no read
support for this node type, this is really just for debugging output
right now, so it doesn't affect anything important.
Commit 964d01ae9 was a few bricks shy of a load here: the script
checked whether gen_node_support.pl itself had been updated since it

other lists of source files.

Commit fac1b470a thought we could check for set-returning functions

Use expression_returns_set() instead, and stuff the IS_SRF_CALL()

Commit 964d01ae9 marked a lot of fields as read_write_ignore
to stay consistent with what was dumped by the manually-maintained
outfuncs.c code. However, it seems that a pretty fair number
of those omissions were either flat-out oversights, or a shortcut
taken because hand-written code seemed like it'd be too much trouble.
Let's upgrade things where it seems to make sense to dump.
To do this, we need to add support to gen_node_support.pl and
outfuncs.c for variable-length arrays of Node pointers. That's
pretty straightforward given the model of the existing code
for arrays of scalars, but I found I needed to tighten the
type-recognizing regexes in gen_node_support.pl. (As they
stood, they mistook "foo **" for "foo *". Make sure they're
all fully anchored to prevent additional problems.)
The main thing left un-done here is that a lot of partitioning-related
structs are still not dumped, because they are bare structs not Nodes.
I'm not sure about the wisdom of that choice ... but changing it would
be fairly invasive, so it probably requires more justification than
just making planner node dumps more complete.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1295668.1658258637@sss.pgh.pa.us
When the ability to print variable-length-array fields was first
added to outfuncs.c, there was no corresponding read capability,
as it was used only for debug dumps of planner-internal Nodes.
Not a lot of thought seems to have been put into the output format:
it's just the space-separated array elements and nothing else.
Later such fields appeared in Plan nodes, and still later we grew
read support so that Plans could be transferred to parallel workers,
but the original text format wasn't rethought. It seems inadequate
to me because (a) no cross-check is possible that we got the right
number of array entries, (b) we can't tell the difference between
a NULL pointer and a zero-length array, and (c) except for
WRITE_INDEX_ARRAY, we'd crash if a non-zero length is specified
when the pointer is NULL, a situation that can arise in some fields
that we currently conveniently avoid printing.
Since we're currently in a campaign to make the Node infrastructure
generally more it-just-works-without-thinking-about-it, now seems
like a good time to improve this.
Let's adopt a format similar to that used for Lists, that is "<>"
for a NULL pointer or "(item item item)" otherwise. Also retool
the code to not have so many copies of the identical logic.
I bumped catversion out of an abundance of caution, although I think
that we don't use any such array fields in Nodes that can get into
the catalogs.

Teach this script to handle function pointer fields honestly.
Previously they were just silently ignored, but that's not likely to
be a behavior we can accept indefinitely. This mostly entails fixing
it so that a field declaration spanning multiple lines can be parsed,
because we have a bunch of such fields that're laid out that way.
But that's a good improvement in its own right.
With that change and a minor regex adjustment, the only struct it
fails to parse in the node-defining headers is A_Const, because
of the embedded union. The path of least resistance is to move
that union declaration outside the struct.
Having done those things, we can make it error out if it finds
any within-struct syntax it doesn't understand, which seems like
a pretty important property for robustness.
This commit doesn't change the output files at all; it's just in
the way of future-proofing.

The initial version of gen_node_support.pl manually excluded most
utility statement node types from having out/read support, and
also some raw-parse-tree-only node types. That was mostly to keep
the output comparable to the old hand-maintained code. We'd like
to have out/read support for utility statements, for debugging
purposes and so that they can be included in new-style SQL functions;
so it's time to lift that restriction.
Most if not all of the previously-excluded raw-parse-tree-only node
types can appear in expression subtrees of utility statements, so
they have to be handled too.
We don't quite have full read support yet; certain custom_read_write
node types need to have their handwritten read functions implemented
before that will work.
Doing this allows us to drop the previous hack in _outQuery to not
dump the utilityStmt field in most cases, which means we no longer
need manually-maintained out/read functions for Query, so get rid
of those in favor of auto-generating them.
Fix a couple of omissions in gen_node_support.pl that are exposed
through having to handle more node types.
catversion bump forced because somebody was sloppy about the field
order in the manually-maintained Query out/read functions.

There are a few things that we could do a little better within
get_cheapest_group_keys_order():
1. We should be using list_free() rather than pfree() on a List.
2. We should use for_each_from() instead of manually coding a for loop to
skip the first n elements of a List
3. list_truncate(list_copy(...), n) is not a great way to copy the first n
elements of a list. Let's invent list_copy_head() for that. That way we
don't need to copy the entire list just to truncate it directly
afterwards.
4. We can simplify finding the cheapest cost by setting the cheapest cost
variable to DBL_MAX. That allows us to skip special-casing the initial
iteration of the loop.

Backpatch-through: 15, where get_cheapest_group_keys_order was added.
Having different build systems producing different contents of the
NodeTag enum would be catastrophic for extension ABI stability.
But that ordering depends on the order in which gen_node_support.pl
processes its input files. It seems too fragile to let the Makefiles,
MSVC build scripts, and soon meson build scripts all set this order
independently. As a klugy but serviceable solution, put a canonical
copy of the file list into gen_node_support.pl itself, and check that
against the files given on the command line.
Also, while it's fine to add and delete node tags during development,
we must not let the assigned NodeTag values change unexpectedly in
stable branches. Add a cross-check that can be enabled when a branch
is forked off (or later, but that is a time when we're unlikely to
miss doing it). It just checks that the last auto-assigned number
doesn't change, which is simplistic but will catch the most likely
sorts of mistakes.
From time to time we do need to add a node tag in a stable branch.
To support doing that without changing the branch's auto-assigned
tag numbers, invent pg_node_attr(nodetag_number(VALUE)) which can
be used to give such a node a hand-assigned tag above the last
auto-assigned one.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1249010.1657574337@sss.pgh.pa.us
This allows explaining gen_node_support.pl's handling of execnodes.h
and some other input files as being a shortcut for explicit marking
of all their node declarations as pg_node_attr(nodetag_only).
I foresee that someday we might need to be more fine-grained about

Commit f10a025cfe added support for List to store Xids, but didn't
handle the new type in all cases. Add some obviously necessary pieces.
As far as I am aware, this is all dead code as far as core code is
concerned, but it seems unacceptable not to have it in case third-party
code wants to rely on this type of list. (Some parts of the List API
remain unimplemented, but that can be fixed as and when needed -- see
lack of list_intersection_oid, list_deduplicate_int as precedents.)

Add a script to automatically generate the node support functions
(copy, equal, out, and read, as well as the node tags enum) from the
struct definitions.
For each of the four node support files, it creates two include files,
e.g., copyfuncs.funcs.c and copyfuncs.switch.c, to include in the main
file. All the scaffolding of the main file stays in place.
I have tried to mostly make the coverage of the output match what is
currently there. For example, one could now do out/read coverage of
utility statement nodes, but I have manually excluded those for now.
The reason is mainly that it's easier to diff the before and after,
and adding a bunch of stuff like this might require a separate
analysis and review.
Subtyping (TidScan -> Scan) is supported.
For the hard cases, you can just write a manual function and exclude
generating one. For the not so hard cases, there is a way of
annotating struct fields to get special behaviors. For example,
pg_node_attr(equal_ignore) has the field ignored in equal functions.
(In this patch, I have only ifdef'ed out the code to could be removed,
mainly so that it won't constantly have merge conflicts. It will be
deleted in a separate patch. All the code comments that are worth
keeping from those sections have already been moved to the header
files where the structs are defined.)

We hadn't noticed this because it's dead code: there is no
situation where we read raw parse trees from text format.
So maybe the right fix is to remove the function altogether,
but I'll forbear for now; it's not the only dead code in
readfuncs.c, I think.

Peter's auto-generation script.
We have been using the term RelFileNode to refer to either (1) the
integer that is used to name the sequence of files for a certain relation
within the directory set aside for that tablespace/database combination;
or (2) that value plus the OIDs of the tablespace and database; or
occasionally (3) the whole series of files created for a relation
based on those values. Using the same name for more than one thing is
confusing.
Replace RelFileNode with RelFileNumber when we're talking about just the
single number, i.e. (1) from above, and with RelFileLocator when we're
talking about all the things that are needed to locate a relation's files
on disk, i.e. (2) from above. In the places where we refer to (3) as
a relfilenode, instead refer to "relation storage".
Since there is a ton of SQL code in the world that knows about
pg_class.relfilenode, don't change the name of that column, or of other
SQL-facing things that derive their name from it.
On the other hand, do adjust closely-related internal terminology. For
example, the structure member names dbNode and spcNode appear to be
derived from the fact that the structure itself was called RelFileNode,
so change those to dbOid and spcOid. Likewise, various variables with
names like rnode and relnode get renamed appropriately, according to
how they're being used in context.
Hopefully, this is clearer than before. It is also preparation for
future patches that intend to widen the relfilenumber fields from its
current width of 32 bits. Variables that store a relfilenumber are now
declared as type RelFileNumber rather than type Oid; right now, these
are the same, but that can now more easily be changed.

Commit 64919aaab made pull_up_simple_subquery set rte->subquery = NULL
after doing the deed, so that we don't waste cycles copying a
now-useless subquery tree around. This turns out to create a core dump
hazard in range_table_mutator, which supposes that that field is never

range_table_mutator on the top Query after subquery pullup; but it

I started out with the intention to rename value_type to item_type to
avoid a collision with a typedef name that appears on some platforms.
Along the way, I noticed that the adjacent field "format" was not being
correctly handled by the backend/nodes/ infrastructure functions:
copyfuncs.c erroneously treated it as a scalar, while equalfuncs,
outfuncs, and readfuncs omitted handling it at all. This looks like
it might be cosmetic at the moment because the field is always NULL
after parse analysis; but that's likely a bug in itself, and the code's
certainly not very future-proof. Let's fix it while we can still do so
without forcing an initdb on beta testers.
Further study found a few other inconsistencies in the backend/nodes/
infrastructure for the recently-added JSON node types, so fix those too.

Window functions such as row_number() always return a value higher than
the previously returned value for tuples in any given window partition.
Traditionally queries such as;
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT *, row_number() over (order by c) rn
FROM t
) t WHERE rn <= 10;
were executed fairly inefficiently. Neither the query planner nor the
executor knew that once rn made it to 11 that nothing further would match
the outer query's WHERE clause. It would blindly continue until all
tuples were exhausted from the subquery.
Here we implement means to make the above execute more efficiently.
This is done by way of adding a pg_proc.prosupport function to various of
the built-in window functions and adding supporting code to allow the
support function to inform the planner if the window function is
monotonically increasing, monotonically decreasing, both or neither. The
planner is then able to make use of that information and possibly allow
the executor to short-circuit execution by way of adding a "run condition"
to the WindowAgg to allow it to determine if some of its execution work
can be skipped.
This "run condition" is not like a normal filter. These run conditions
are only built using quals comparing values to monotonic window functions.
For monotonic increasing functions, quals making use of the btree
operators for <, <= and = can be used (assuming the window function column
is on the left). You can see here that once such a condition becomes false
that a monotonic increasing function could never make it subsequently true
again. For monotonically decreasing functions the >, >= and = btree
operators for the given type can be used for run conditions.
The best-case situation for this is when there is a single WindowAgg node
without a PARTITION BY clause. Here when the run condition becomes false
the WindowAgg node can simply return NULL. No more tuples will ever match
the run condition. It's a little more complex when there is a PARTITION
BY clause. In this case, we cannot return NULL as we must still process
other partitions. To speed this case up we pull tuples from the outer
plan to check if they're from the same partition and simply discard them
if they are. When we find a tuple belonging to another partition we start
processing as normal again until the run condition becomes false or we run
out of tuples to process.
When there are multiple WindowAgg nodes to evaluate then this complicates
the situation. For intermediate WindowAggs we must ensure we always
return all tuples to the calling node. Any filtering done could lead to
incorrect results in WindowAgg nodes above. For all intermediate nodes,
we can still save some work when the run condition becomes false. We've
no need to evaluate the WindowFuncs anymore. Other WindowAgg nodes cannot
reference the value of these and these tuples will not appear in the final
result anyway. The savings here are small in comparison to what can be
saved in the top-level WingowAgg, but still worthwhile.
Intermediate WindowAgg nodes never filter out tuples, but here we change
WindowAgg so that the top-level WindowAgg filters out tuples that don't
match the intermediate WindowAgg node's run condition. Such filters
appear in the "Filter" clause in EXPLAIN for the top-level WindowAgg node.
Here we add prosupport functions to allow the above to work for;
row_number(), rank(), dense_rank(), count(*) and count(expr). It appears
technically possible to do the same for min() and max(), however, it seems
unlikely to be useful enough, so that's not done here.

JSON_SERIALIZE() produces text or bytea from input which containis or

JSON_EXISTS()
JSON_QUERY()
JSON_VALUE()
All of these functions only operate on jsonb. The workaround for now is

JSON_EXISTS() tests if the jsonpath expression applied to the jsonb
value yields any values. JSON_VALUE() must return a single value, and an
error occurs if it tries to return multiple values. JSON_QUERY() must
return a json object or array, and there are various WRAPPER options for

options for handling EMPTY and ERROR conditions.

MERGE performs actions that modify rows in the target table using a
source table or query. MERGE provides a single SQL statement that can
conditionally INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE rows -- a task that would otherwise
require multiple PL statements. For example,
MERGE INTO target AS t
USING source AS s
ON t.tid = s.sid
WHEN MATCHED AND t.balance > s.delta THEN
UPDATE SET balance = t.balance - s.delta
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED AND s.delta > 0 THEN
INSERT VALUES (s.sid, s.delta)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
DO NOTHING;
MERGE works with regular tables, partitioned tables and inheritance
hierarchies, including column and row security enforcement, as well as
support for row and statement triggers and transition tables therein.
MERGE is optimized for OLTP and is parameterizable, though also useful
for large scale ETL/ELT. MERGE is not intended to be used in preference
to existing single SQL commands for INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE since there
is some overhead. MERGE can be used from PL/pgSQL.
MERGE does not support targetting updatable views or foreign tables, and
RETURNING clauses are not allowed either. These limitations are likely
fixable with sufficient effort. Rewrite rules are also not supported,
but it's not clear that we'd want to support them.

This allows specifying an optional column list when adding a table to
logical replication. The column list may be specified after the table
name, enclosed in parentheses. Columns not included in this list are not
sent to the subscriber, allowing the schema on the subscriber to be a
subset of the publisher schema.
For UPDATE/DELETE publications, the column list needs to cover all
REPLICA IDENTITY columns. For INSERT publications, the column list is
arbitrary and may omit some REPLICA IDENTITY columns. Furthermore, if
the table uses REPLICA IDENTITY FULL, column list is not allowed.
The column list can contain only simple column references. Complex
expressions, function calls etc. are not allowed. This restriction could
be relaxed in the future.
During the initial table synchronization, only columns included in the
column list are copied to the subscriber. If the subscription has
several publications, containing the same table with different column
lists, columns specified in any of the lists will be copied.
This means all columns are replicated if the table has no column list
at all (which is treated as column list with all columns), or when of
the publications is defined as FOR ALL TABLES (possibly IN SCHEMA that
matches the schema of the table).
For partitioned tables, publish_via_partition_root determines whether
the column list for the root or the leaf relation will be used. If the
parameter is 'false' (the default), the list defined for the leaf
relation is used. Otherwise, the column list for the root partition
will be used.

A new system view pg_publication_sequences lists all the sequences

level.

This feature adds row filtering for publication tables. When a publication
is defined or modified, an optional WHERE clause can be specified. Rows
that don't satisfy this WHERE clause will be filtered out. This allows a
set of tables to be partially replicated. The row filter is per table. A
new row filter can be added simply by specifying a WHERE clause after the
table name. The WHERE clause must be enclosed by parentheses.
The row filter WHERE clause for a table added to a publication that
publishes UPDATE and/or DELETE operations must contain only columns that
are covered by REPLICA IDENTITY. The row filter WHERE clause for a table
added to a publication that publishes INSERT can use any column. If the
row filter evaluates to NULL, it is regarded as "false". The WHERE clause
only allows simple expressions that don't have user-defined functions,
user-defined operators, user-defined types, user-defined collations,
non-immutable built-in functions, or references to system columns. These
restrictions could be addressed in the future.
If you choose to do the initial table synchronization, only data that
satisfies the row filters is copied to the subscriber. If the subscription
has several publications in which a table has been published with
different WHERE clauses, rows that satisfy ANY of the expressions will be
copied. If a subscriber is a pre-15 version, the initial table
synchronization won't use row filters even if they are defined in the
publisher.
The row filters are applied before publishing the changes. If the
subscription has several publications in which the same table has been
published with different filters (for the same publish operation), those
expressions get OR'ed together so that rows satisfying any of the
expressions will be replicated.
This means all the other filters become redundant if (a) one of the
publications have no filter at all, (b) one of the publications was
created using FOR ALL TABLES, (c) one of the publications was created
using FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA and the table belongs to that same schema.
If your publication contains a partitioned table, the publication
parameter publish_via_partition_root determines if it uses the partition's
row filter (if the parameter is false, the default) or the root
partitioned table's row filter.
Psql commands \dRp+ and \d <table-name> will display any row filters.

The SQL standard has been ambiguous about whether null values in
unique constraints should be considered equal or not. Different
implementations have different behaviors. In the SQL:202x draft, this
has been formalized by making this implementation-defined and adding
an option on unique constraint definitions UNIQUE [ NULLS [NOT]
DISTINCT ] to choose a behavior explicitly.
This patch adds this option to PostgreSQL. The default behavior
remains UNIQUE NULLS DISTINCT. Making this happen in the btree code
is pretty easy; most of the patch is just to carry the flag around to
all the places that need it.
The CREATE UNIQUE INDEX syntax extension is not from the standard,
it's my own invention.
I named all the internal flags, catalog columns, etc. in the negative
("nulls not distinct") so that the default PostgreSQL behavior is the
default if the flag is false.

The token in nodeTokenType() is actually the whole rest of the string,
so we need to take into account the length to do the correct
comparison.
Without this, postgres_fdw tests fail under
-DWRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES.
Before, SQL-level boolean constants were represented by a string with
a cast, and internal Boolean values in DDL commands were usually
represented by Integer nodes. This takes the place of both of these
uses, making the intent clearer and having some amount of type safety.

Commit 9dc718bd added a "logically unchanged by UPDATE" hinting
mechanism, which is currently used within nbtree indexes only (see
commit d168b666). This mechanism determined whether or not the incoming
item is a logically unchanged duplicate (a duplicate needed only for
MVCC versioning purposes) once per row updated per non-HOT update. This
approach led to memory leaks which were noticeable with an UPDATE
statement that updated sufficiently many rows, at least on tables that
happen to have an expression index.
On HEAD, fix the issue by adding a cache to the executor's per-index
IndexInfo struct.
Take a different approach on Postgres 14 to avoid an ABI break: simply
pass down the hint to all indexes unconditionally with non-HOT UPDATEs.
This is deemed acceptable because the hint is currently interpreted
within btinsert() as "perform a bottom-up index deletion pass if and
when the only alternative is splitting the leaf page -- prefer to delete
any LP_DEAD-set items first". nbtree must always treat the hint as a
noisy signal about what might work, as a strategy of last resort, with
costs imposed on non-HOT updaters. (The same thing might not be true
within another index AM that applies the hint, which is why the original
behavior is preserved on HEAD.)

Backpatch: 14-, where the hinting mechanism was added.
Since this function is defined to accept pg_node_tree values, it could
get applied to any nodetree that can appear in a cataloged pg_node_tree
column. Some such cases can't be supported --- for example, its API
doesn't allow providing referents for more than one relation --- but
we should try to throw a user-facing error rather than an internal
error when encountering such a case.
In support of this, extend expression_tree_walker/mutator to be sure
they'll work on any such node tree (which basically means adding
support for relpartbound node types). That allows us to run pull_varnos
and check for the case of multiple relations before we start processing
the tree. The alternative of changing the low-level error thrown for an
out-of-range varno isn't appealing, because that could mask actual bugs
in other usages of ruleutils.
Per report from Justin Pryzby. This is basically cosmetic, so no
back-patch.

Commit 4ace45677 failed to fix the problem fully, because the
same issue of attempting to fetch a non-returnable index column
can occur when rechecking the indexqual after using a lossy index
operator. Moreover, it broke EXPLAIN for such indexquals (which
indicates a gap in our test cases :-().
Revert the code changes of 4ace45677 in favor of adding a new field
to struct IndexOnlyScan, containing a version of the indexqual that
can be executed against the index-returned tuple without using any
non-returnable columns. (The restrictions imposed by check_index_only
guarantee this is possible, although we may have to recompute indexed
expressions.) Support construction of that during setrefs.c
processing by marking IndexOnlyScan.indextlist entries as resjunk
if they can't be returned, rather than removing them entirely.
(We could alternatively require setrefs.c to look up the IndexOptInfo
again, but abusing resjunk this way seems like a reasonably safe way
to avoid needing to do that.)
This solution isn't great from an API-stability standpoint: if there
are any extensions out there that build IndexOnlyScan structs directly,
they'll be broken in the next minor releases. However, only a very
invasive extension would be likely to do such a thing. There's no
change in the Path representation, so typical planner extensions
shouldn't have a problem.
As before, back-patch to all supported branches.

pg_strtouint64() is a wrapper around strtoull/strtoul/_strtoui64, but
it seems no longer necessary to have this indirection.
msvc/Solution.pm claims HAVE_STRTOULL, so the "MSVC only" part seems
unnecessary. Also, we have code in c.h to substitute alternatives for
strtoull() if not found, and that would appear to cover all currently
supported platforms, so having a further fallback in pg_strtouint64()
seems unnecessary.
Therefore, we could remove pg_strtouint64(), and use strtoull()
directly in all call sites. However, it seems useful to keep a
separate notation for parsing exactly 64-bit integers, matching the
type definition int64/uint64. For that, add new macros strtoi64() and
strtou64() in c.h as thin wrappers around strtol()/strtoul() or
strtoll()/stroull(). This makes these functions available everywhere
instead of just in the server code, and it makes the function naming
notably different from the pg_strtointNN() functions in numutils.c,
which have a different API.

Extend the foreign key ON DELETE actions SET NULL and SET DEFAULT by
allowing the specification of a column list, like
CREATE TABLE posts (
...
FOREIGN KEY (tenant_id, author_id) REFERENCES users ON DELETE SET NULL (author_id)
);
If a column list is specified, only those columns are set to
null/default, instead of all the columns in the foreign-key
constraint.
This is useful for multitenant or sharded schemas, where the tenant or
shard ID is included in the primary key of all tables but shouldn't be
set to null.

It's possible that a subplan below a Memoize node contains a parameter
from above the Memoize node. If this parameter changes then cache entries
may become out-dated due to the new parameter value.
Previously Memoize was mistakenly not aware of this. We fix this here by

Backpatch-through: 14, where Memoize was added
Memoize would always use the hash equality operator for the cache key
types to determine if the current set of parameters were the same as some
previously cached set. Certain types such as floating points where -0.0
and +0.0 differ in their binary representation but are classed as equal by
the hash equality operator may cause problems as unless the join uses the
same operator it's possible that whichever join operator is being used
would be able to distinguish the two values. In which case we may
accidentally return in the incorrect rows out of the cache.
To fix this here we add a binary mode to Memoize to allow it to the
current set of parameters to previously cached values by comparing
bit-by-bit rather than logically using the hash equality operator. This
binary mode is always used for LATERAL joins and it's used for normal
joins when any of the join operators are not hashable.

As in commits 6301c3ada and e9d9ba2a4, avoid doing repetitive
list_delete_first() operations, since that would be expensive when
there are many files waiting to be unlinked. This is a slightly
larger change than in those cases. We have to keep the list state
valid for calls to AbsorbSyncRequests(), so it's necessary to invent a
"canceled" field instead of immediately deleting PendingUnlinkEntry
entries. Also, because we might not be able to process all the
entries, we need a new list primitive list_delete_first_n().
list_delete_first_n() is almost list_copy_tail(), but it modifies the
input List instead of making a new copy. I found a couple of existing
uses of the latter that could profitably use the new function. (There
might be more, but the other callers look like they probably shouldn't
overwrite the input List.)
As before, back-patch to v13.

A new option "FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA" in Create/Alter Publication allows
one or more schemas to be specified, whose tables are selected by the
publisher for sending the data to the subscriber.
The new syntax allows specifying both the tables and schemas. For example:
CREATE PUBLICATION pub1 FOR TABLE t1,t2,t3, ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA s1,s2;
OR
ALTER PUBLICATION pub1 ADD TABLE t1,t2,t3, ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA s1,s2;
A new system table "pg_publication_namespace" has been added, to maintain
the schemas that the user wants to publish through the publication.
Modified the output plugin (pgoutput) to publish the changes if the
relation is part of schema publication.
Updates pg_dump to identify and dump schema publications. Updates the \d
family of commands to display schema publications and \dRp+ variant will
now display associated schemas if any.

Up to now the size of a query's rangetable has been limited by the
constants INNER_VAR et al, which mustn't be equal to any real
rangetable index. 65000 doubtless seemed like enough for anybody,
and it still is orders of magnitude larger than the number of joins
we can realistically handle. However, we need a rangetable entry
for each child partition that is (or might be) processed by a query.
Queries with a few thousand partitions are getting more realistic,
so that the day when that limit becomes a problem is in sight,
even if it's not here yet. Hence, let's raise the limit.
Rather than just increase the values of INNER_VAR et al, this patch
adopts the approach of making them small negative values, so that
rangetables could theoretically become as long as INT_MAX.
The bulk of the patch is concerned with changing Var.varno and some
related variables from "Index" (unsigned int) to plain "int". This
is basically cosmetic, with little actual effect other than to help
debuggers print their values nicely. As such, I've only bothered
with changing places that could actually see INNER_VAR et al, which
the parser and most of the planner don't. We do have to be careful
in places that are performing less/greater comparisons on varnos,
but there are very few such places, other than the IS_SPECIAL_VARNO
macro itself.
A notable side effect of this patch is that while it used to be
possible to add INNER_VAR et al to a Bitmapset, that will now
draw an error. I don't see any likelihood that it wouldn't be a
bug to include these fake varnos in a bitmapset of real varnos,
so I think this is all to the good.
Although this touches outfuncs/readfuncs, I don't think a catversion
bump is required, since stored rules would never contain Vars
with these fake varnos.

In most cases, the prefix string in a node output is the upper case of
the node structure name, e.g., MergeAppend -> MERGEAPPEND. There were
a few exceptions that for either no apparent reason or perhaps minor
aesthetic reasons deviated from this. In order to simplify this and
perhaps allow automatic generation without having to deal with
exception cases, make them all match.

We have a few WRITE_{name of type}_ARRAY macros, but the one case
using the Index type was hand-coded. Wrap it into a macro as well.
This also changes the behavior slightly: Before, the field name was
skipped if the length was zero. Now it prints the field name even in
that case. This is more consistent with how other array fields are
handled.

The Value node struct is a weird construct. It is its own node type,
but most of the time, it actually has a node type of Integer, Float,
String, or BitString. As a consequence, the struct name and the node
type don't match most of the time, and so it has to be treated
specially a lot. There doesn't seem to be any value in the special
construct. There is very little code that wants to accept all Value
variants but nothing else (and even if it did, this doesn't provide
any convenient way to check it), and most code wants either just one
particular node type (usually String), or it accepts a broader set of
node types besides just Value.
This change removes the Value struct and node type and replaces them
by separate Integer, Float, String, and BitString node types that are
proper node types and structs of their own and behave mostly like
normal node types.
Also, this removes the T_Null node tag, which was previously also a
possible variant of Value but wasn't actually used outside of the
Value contained in A_Const. Replace that by an isnull field in
A_Const.
