We carried a special implementation of pg_foreach_ifaddr() using
Solaris's ioctl(SIOCGLIFCONF), but Solaris 11 and illumos adopted
getifaddrs() more than a decade ago, and we prefer to use that. Solaris
10 is EOL'd. Remove the dead code.
Adjust comment about which OSes have getifaddrs(), which also
incorrectly listed AIX. AIX is in fact the only Unix in the build farm
that *doesn't* have it today, so the implementation based on
ioctl(SIOCGIFCONF) (note, no 'L') is still live. All the others have
had it for at least one but mostly two decades.
The last-stop fallback at the bottom of the file is dead code in
practice, but it's hard to justify removing it because the better
options are all non-standard.

The table column that stores this is of type oid, but is actually limited
to uint16 and has a different path for creating new values. Some of
the documentation already referred to it as an ID, so let's standardize
on that.
While at it, most format strings already use %u, so for consintency
change the remaining stragglers using %d.

Backpatch to v15
1349d2790 changed things to make the planner request that the
query_pathkeys contain pathkeys for any ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates.
Some code added prior to that commit in db0d67db2 made it so the order
that the pathkeys appear in the group_pathkeys could be changed so that
the GROUP BY could be executed in a more optimal order which minimized
sort comparisons. 1349d2790 had to make sure that the pathkeys for any
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates remained at the end of the groupby_pathkeys
and wasn't reordered, so some code was added to
add_paths_to_grouping_rel() to first strip off any pathkeys belonging to
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates before passing to the function to optimize
the order of the group_pathkeys.
It seems I dropped the ball in 1349d2790 and mistakenly used the untouched
PlannerInfo.group_pathkeys to pass to get_useful_group_keys_orderings()
instead of the version that had the aggregate pathkeys removed. It was
only the code path that was handling creating paths for
partially_grouped_rel which made this mistake. In practice, we'll never
have any extra pathkeys to strip off when processing
partially_grouped_rel as that's only used when considering partial
paths, which we never do when there are ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates.
So this is just a hypothetical bug, not a live bug. We already have the
correct pathkeys determined, so it's of no extra cost to pass the
correct variable.

Make build_joinrel_tlist() responsible for adding PHVs that were
already computed in one or the other input relation, and therefore
change add_placeholders_to_joinrel() to only add PHVs that will be
newly computed in this joinrel's output. This makes the handling
of PHVs in build_joinrel_tlist() more like its handling of plain
Vars, which seems like a good thing on intelligibility grounds
and will simplify planned future changes. There is a purely
cosmetic side-effect that the order of entries in the joinrel's
tlist may change; but since it becomes more like the order of
entries in the input tlists, that's not bad.
The reason it wasn't done like this originally was the potential
cost of looking up PlaceHolderInfo entries to consult ph_needed.
Now that that's O(1) it shouldn't hurt.

Up to now, callers of find_placeholder_info() were required to pass
a flag indicating if it's OK to make a new PlaceHolderInfo. That'd
be fine if the callers had free choice, but they do not. Once we
begin deconstruct_jointree() it's no longer OK to make more PHIs;
while callers before that always want to create a PHI if it's not
there already. So there's no freedom of action, only the opportunity
to cause bugs by creating PHIs too late. Let's get rid of that in
favor of adding a state flag PlannerInfo.placeholdersFrozen, which
we can set at the point where it's no longer OK to make more PHIs.
This patch also simplifies a couple of call sites that were using
complicated logic to avoid calling find_placeholder_info() as much
as possible. Now that that lookup is O(1) thanks to the previous
commit, the extra bitmap manipulations are probably a net negative.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1405792.1660677844@sss.pgh.pa.us
Up to now we've just searched the placeholder_list when we want to
find the PlaceHolderInfo with a given ID. While there's no evidence
of that being a problem in the field, an upcoming patch will add
find_placeholder_info() calls in build_joinrel_tlist(), which seems
likely to make it more of an issue: a joinrel emitting lots of
PlaceHolderVars would incur O(N^2) cost, and we might be building
a lot of joinrels in complex queries. Hence, add an array that
can be indexed directly by phid to make the lookups constant-time.

The standard way to check for list emptiness is to compare the
List pointer to NIL; our list code goes out of its way to ensure
that that is the only representation of an empty list. (An
acceptable alternative is a plain boolean test for non-null
pointer, but explicit mention of NIL is usually preferable.)
Various places didn't get that memo and expressed the condition
with list_length(), which might not be so bad except that there
were such a variety of ways to check it exactly: equal to zero,
less than or equal to zero, less than one, yadda yadda. In the
name of code readability, let's standardize all those spellings
as "list == NIL" or "list != NIL". (There's probably some
microscopic efficiency gain too, though few of these look to be
at all performance-critical.)
A very small number of cases were left as-is because they seemed
more consistent with other adjacent list_length tests that way.

The assert, introduced by 9f1cf97bb5, is intended to check if the prefix
is terminated by a \0 byte, but it has two flaws. Firstly, prefix_size
includes the \0 byte, so prefix[prefix_size] points to the byte after
the null byte. Secondly, the check ensures the byte is not equal \0,
while it should be checking the opposite.

There's a convention that externally-visible libpq functions should
check for a NULL PGconn pointer, and fail gracefully instead of
crashing. PQflush() and PQisnonblocking() didn't get that memo
though. Also add a similar check to PQdefaultSSLKeyPassHook_OpenSSL;

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).
When enlarging the work buffers of a VarStringSortSupport object,
varstrfastcmp_locale was careful to keep them in the ssup_cxt
memory context; but varstr_abbrev_convert just used palloc().
The latter creates a hazard that the buffers could be freed out
from under the VarStringSortSupport object, resulting in stomping
on whatever gets allocated in that memory later.
In practice, because we only use this code for ICU collations
(cf. 3df9c374e), the problem is confined to use of ICU collations.
I believe it may have been unreachable before the introduction
of incremental sort, too, as traditional sorting usually just
uses one context for the duration of the sort.
We could fix this by making the broken stanzas in varstr_abbrev_convert
match the non-broken ones in varstrfastcmp_locale. However, it seems
like a better idea to dodge the issue altogether by replacing the
pfree-and-allocate-anew coding with repalloc, which automatically
preserves the chunk's memory context. This fix does add a few cycles
because repalloc will copy the chunk's content, which the existing
coding assumes is useless. However, we don't expect that these buffer
enlargement operations are performance-critical. Besides that, it's
far from obvious that copying the buffer contents isn't required, since
these stanzas make no effort to mark the buffers invalid by resetting
last_returned, cache_blob, etc. That seems to be safe upon examination,
but it's fragile and could easily get broken in future, which wouldn't
get revealed in testing with short-to-moderate-size strings.
Per bug #17584 from James Inform. Whether or not the issue is
reachable in the older branches, this code has been broken on its
own terms from its introduction, so patch all the way back.

It's possible to reach this case when work_mem is very small and tupsize
is (relatively) very large. In that case ExecChooseHashTableSize would
get an assertion failure, or with asserts off it'd compute nbuckets = 0,
which'd likely cause misbehavior later (I've not checked). To fix,
clamp the number of buckets to be at least 1.

Since HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS is now defined unconditionally, remove the macro
and drop a small amount of dead code.
The last known systems not to have them (as far as I know at least) were
QNX, which we de-supported years ago, and Windows, which now has them.
If a new OS ever shows up with the POSIX sockets API but without working
AF_UNIX, it'll presumably still be able to compile the code, and fail at
runtime with an unsupported address family error. We might want to
consider adding a HINT that you should turn off the option to use it if
your network stack doesn't support it at that point, but it doesn't seem
worth making the relevant code conditional at compile time.
Also adjust a couple of places in the docs and comments that referred to
builds without Unix-domain sockets, since there aren't any. Windows
still gets a special mention in those places, though, because we don't
try to use them by default there yet.

Assume that we can use LWARX hint flags and the LWSYNC instruction
on any PPC machine. The check on the assembler's behavior was only
needed for Apple's old assembler, which is no longer of interest
now that we've de-supported all PPC-era versions of macOS (thanks
to them not having clock_gettime()). Also, given an up-to-date
assembler these instructions work even on Apple's old hardware.
It seems quite unlikely that anyone would be interested in running
current Postgres on PPC hardware that's so old as to not have
these instructions.
Hence, rip out associated configure test and manual configuration
options, and just use the modernized instructions all the time.
Also, update atomics/arch-ppc.h to use these instructions as well.
(It was already using LWSYNC unconditionally in another place,
providing further proof that nobody is using PG on hardware old
enough to have a problem with that.)
