In 02b8048ba I (tgl) got rid of the need for most tab-completion queries
to return pre-quoted identifiers. But I over-hastily removed the
quote_ident call from Query_for_list_of_available_extension_versions*
too; those still need it, because what is returned isn't an identifier
at all and will (almost?) always need quoting.
Arguably we should use quote_literal here instead. But quote_ident
works too and people may be used to that behavior, so stick with it.
In passing, fix inconsistent omission of schema-qualification in
Query_for_list_of_encodings. That's not a security issue per our
current guidelines, but it ought to be like the rest.

This reverts commits 5753d4ee32 and fe60b67250 that modified HOT to
ignore BRIN indexes. The commit message for 5753d4ee32 claims that:
When determining whether an index update may be skipped by using
HOT, we can ignore attributes indexed only by BRIN indexes. There
are no index pointers to individual tuples in BRIN, and the page
range summary will be updated anyway as it relies on visibility
info.
This is partially incorrect - it's true BRIN indexes don't point to
individual tuples, so HOT chains are not an issue, but the visibitlity
info is not sufficient to keep the index up to date. This can easily
result in corrupted indexes, as demonstrated in the hackers thread.
This does not mean relaxing the HOT restrictions for BRIN is a lost
cause, but it needs to handle the two aspects (allowing HOT chains and
updating the page range summaries) as separate. But that requires a
major changes, and it's too late for that in the current dev cycle.

While building a new attrmap which maps partition attribute numbers to
remoterel's, we incorrectly update the map for dropped column attributes.
Later, it caused cache look-up failure when we tried to use the map to
fetch the information about attributes.
This also fixes the partition map cache invalidation which was using the
wrong type cast to fetch the entry. We were using stale partition map
entry after invalidation which leads to the assertion or cache look-up

This commit, in completion of 157f873, forces a ROLLBACK for
--single-transaction only when ON_ERROR_STOP is used when one of the
steps defined by -f/-c fails. Hence, COMMIT is always used when
ON_ERROR_STOP is not set, ignoring the status code of the last action
taken in the set of switches specified by -c/-f (previously ROLLBACK
would have been issued even without ON_ERROR_STOP if the last step
failed, while COMMIT was issued if a step in-between failed as long as
the last step succeeded, leading to more inconsistency).
While on it, this adds much more test coverage in this area when not
using ON_ERROR_STOP with multiple switch patterns involving -c and -f
for query files, single queries and slash commands.
The behavior of ON_ERROR_STOP is arguably a bug, but there was no much
support for a backpatch to force a ROLLBACK on a step failure, so this
change is done only on HEAD for now.

If an application executed operations like EXEC SQL PREPARE
without having first established a database connection, it could
get a core dump instead of the expected clean failure. This
occurred because we did "pthread_getspecific(actual_connection_key)"
without ever having initialized the TSD key actual_connection_key.
The results of that are probably platform-specific, but at least
on Linux it often leads to a crash.
To fix, add calls to ecpg_pthreads_init() in the code paths that
might use actual_connection_key uninitialized. It's harmless

The original advice for hard-wired SetConfigOption calls was to use
PGC_S_OVERRIDE, particularly for PGC_INTERNAL GUCs. However,
that's really overkill for PGC_INTERNAL GUCs, since there is no
possibility that we need to override a user-provided setting.
Instead use PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT in most places, so that the
value will appear with source = 'default' in pg_settings and thereby
not be shown by psql's new \dconfig command. The one exception is
that when changing in_hot_standby in a hot-standby session, we still
use PGC_S_OVERRIDE, because people felt that seeing that in \dconfig
would be a good thing.
Similarly use PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT for the auto-tune value of
wal_buffers (if possible, that is if wal_buffers wasn't explicitly
set to -1), and for the typical 2MB value of max_stack_depth.
In combination these changes remove four not-very-interesting
entries from the typical output of \dconfig, all of which people
fingered as "why is that showing up?" in the discussion thread.

38bfae3 has moved the contents written to files by pg_upgrade under a
new directory called pg_upgrade_output.d/ located in the new cluster's
data folder, and it used a simple structure made of two subdirectories
leading to a fixed structure: log/ and dump/. This design has made
weaker pg_upgrade on repeated calls, as we could get failures when
creating one or more of those directories, while potentially losing the
logs of a previous run (logs are retained automatically on failure, and
cleaned up on success unless --retain is specified). So a user would
need to clean up pg_upgrade_output.d/ as an extra step for any repeated
calls of pg_upgrade. The most common scenario here is --check followed
by the actual upgrade, but one could see a failure when specifying an
incorrect input argument value. Removing entirely the logs would have
the disadvantage of removing all the past information, even if --retain
was specified at some past step.
This result is annoying for a lot of users and automated upgrade flows.
So, rather than requiring a manual removal of pg_upgrade_output.d/, this
redesigns the set of output directories in a more dynamic way, based on
a suggestion from Tom Lane and Daniel Gustafsson. pg_upgrade_output.d/
is still the base path, but a second directory level is added, mostly
named after an ISO-8601-formatted timestamp (in short human-readable,
with milliseconds appended to the name to avoid any conflicts). The
logs and dumps are saved within the same subdirectories as previously,
as of log/ and dump/, but these are located inside the subdirectory
named after the timestamp.
The logs of a given run are removed only after a successful run if
--retain is not used, and pg_upgrade_output.d/ is kept if there are any
logs from a previous run. Note that previously, pg_upgrade would have
kept the logs even after a successful --check but that was inconsistent
compared to the case without --check when using --retain. The code in
charge of the removal of the output directories is now refactored into a
single routine.
Two TAP tests are added with some --check commands (one failure case and
one success case), to look after the issue fixed here. Note that the
tests had to be tweaked a bit to fit with the new directory structure so
as it can find any logs generated on failure. This is still going to
require a change in the buildfarm client for the case where pg_upgrade
is tested without the TAP test, though, but I'll tackle that with a
separate patch where needed.

psql --single-transaction is able to handle multiple -c and -f switches
in a single transaction since d5563d7d, but this had the surprising
behavior of forcing a transaction COMMIT even if psql failed with an
error in the client (for example incorrect path given to \copy), which
would generate an error, but still commit any changes that were already
applied in the backend. This commit makes the behavior more consistent,
by enforcing a transaction ROLLBACK if any commands fail, both
client-side and backend-side, so as no changes are applied if one error
happens in any of them.
Some tests are added on HEAD to provide some coverage about all that.
Backend-side errors are unreliable as IPC::Run can complain on SIGPIPE
if psql quits before reading a query result, but that should work
properly in the case where any errors come from psql itself, which is
what the original report is about.

The hard-wired PageOutput arguments in usage() and sibling functions
have been a perennial maintenance gotcha, and there's no reason to
think we'll ever get any better about that. Let's get rid of those
magic constants by constructing the output in a buffer where we can
count the newlines before calling PageOutput. (Perhaps this is
microscopically slower; but none of these functions are performance
critical, and anyway we might well be buying back all the cost by
avoiding having to pass most of the data through snprintf.c. I could
not detect any speed difference in a desultory check.) This also
gets rid of the need to assume that platform-specific variations in
the output are insignificant.

TAP tests are run from their own directory in the source tree, and in a

so as any files generated by pg_upgrade do not impact the source tree,
but the build tree. This has as nice side-effect to make unnessary the

Currently, we simply combine the column lists when publishing tables on
multiple publications and that can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior.
Say, if a column is published in any row-filtered publication, then the
values for that column are sent to the subscriber even for rows that don't
match the row filter, as long as the row matches the row filter for any
other publication, even if that other publication doesn't include the
column.
The main purpose of introducing a column list is to have statically
different shapes on publisher and subscriber or hide sensitive column
data. In both cases, it doesn't seem to make sense to combine column
lists.
So, we disallow the cases where the column list is different for the same
table when combining publications. It can be later extended to combine the
column lists for selective cases where required.

This reverts commit d9d076222f "VACUUM: ignore indexing operations
with CONCURRENTLY".
These changes caused indexes created with the CONCURRENTLY option to
miss heap tuples that were HOT-updated and HOT-pruned during the index
creation. Before these changes, HOT pruning would have been prevented
by the Xmin of the transaction creating the index, but because this
change was precisely to allow the Xmin to move forward ignoring that
backend, now other backends scanning the table can prune them. This is
not a problem for VACUUM (which requires a lock that conflicts with a
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY operation), but HOT-prune can definitely
occur. In other words, Xmin advancement was sped up, but at the cost of
corrupting the resulting index.
Regrettably, this means that the new feature in PG14 that RIC/CIC on
very large tables no longer force VACUUM to retain very old tuples goes
away. We might try to implement it again in a later release, but for
now the risk of indexes missing tuples is too high and there's no easy
fix.

Commit 1a36bc9db (SQL/JSON query functions) introduced STRING as a
type_func_name_keyword, thereby breaking applications that use
"string" as a table name, column name, function parameter name, etc.
That seems like a pretty bad thing, not least because the SQL spec
says that STRING is an unreserved keyword.
This is easy enough to fix so far as the core grammar is concerned.
However, doing so causes some ECPG test cases to fail, specifically
those that use "string" as a typedef name. It turns out this is
because portions of the ECPG grammar allow type_func_name_keywords
but not unreserved_keywords as typedef names. That's pretty horrid,
and it's mildly astonishing that we've not heard complaints about it
before. We can fix two of those uses trivially, but the ones in the
var_type production are less easy. As a stopgap, hard-code STRING as
an allowed alternative in var_type.

Commits a59c79564 et al. tried to sync libpq's SSL key file
permissions checks with what we've used for years in the backend.
We did not intend to create any new failure cases, but it turns out
we did: restricting the key file's ownership breaks cases where the
client is allowed to read a key file despite not having the identical
UID. In particular a client running as root used to be able to read
someone else's key file; and having seen that I suspect that there are
other, less-dubious use cases that this restriction breaks on some
platforms.
We don't really need an ownership check, since if we can read the key
file despite its having restricted permissions, it must have the right
ownership --- under normal conditions anyway, and the point of this
patch is that any additional corner cases where that works should be
deemed allowable, as they have been historically. Hence, just drop
the ownership check, and rearrange the permissions check to get rid
of its faulty assumption that geteuid() can't be zero. (Note that the
comparable backend-side code doesn't have to cater for geteuid() == 0,
since the server rejects that very early on.)
This does have the end result that the permissions safety check used
for a root user's private key file is weaker than that used for
anyone else's. While odd, root really ought to know what she's doing
with file permissions, so I think this is acceptable.

repeat() checked for integer overflow during its calculation of the
required output space, but it just passed the resulting integer to
palloc(). This meant that result sizes between 1GB and 2GB led to
ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR, "invalid memory alloc request size" rather
than ERRCODE_PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED, "requested length too large".
That seems like a bit of a wart, so add an explicit AllocSizeIsValid
check to make these error cases uniform.
Do likewise in the sibling functions lpad() etc. While we're here,
also modernize their overflow checks to use pg_mul_s32_overflow() etc
instead of expensive divisions.

On slow machines the modified test could end up switching the order in which
transactional stats are reported in one session and non-transactional stats in
another session. As stats handling of truncate is implemented as setting
live/dead rows 0, the order in which a truncate's stats changes are applied,
relative to normal stats updates, matters. The handling of stats for truncate
hasn't changed due to shared memory stats, this is longstanding behavior.
We might want to improve truncate's stats handling in the future, but for now
just change the order of forced flushed to make the test stable.

ruleutils.c was coded to suppress the AS label for a SELECT output
expression if the column name is "?column?", which is the parser's
fallback if it can't think of something better. This is fine, and
avoids ugly clutter, so long as (1) nothing further up in the parse
tree relies on that column name or (2) the same fallback would be
assigned when the rule or view definition is reloaded. Unfortunately
(2) is far from certain, both because ruleutils.c might print the
expression in a different form from how it was originally written
and because FigureColname's rules might change in future releases.
So we shouldn't rely on that.
Detecting exactly whether there is any outer-level use of a SELECT
column name would be rather expensive. This patch takes the simpler
approach of just passing down a flag indicating whether there *could*
be any outer use; for example, the output column names of a SubLink
are not referenceable, and we also do not care about the names exposed
by the right-hand side of a setop. This is sufficient to suppress
unwanted clutter in all but one case in the regression tests. That
seems like reasonable evidence that it won't be too much in users'
faces, while still fixing the cases we need to fix.

Several places in the planner tried to clamp a double value to fit
in a "long" by doing
(long) Min(x, (double) LONG_MAX);
This is subtly incorrect, because it casts LONG_MAX to double and
potentially back again. If long is 64 bits then the double value
is inexact, and the platform might round it up to LONG_MAX+1
resulting in an overflow and an undesirably negative output.
While it's not hard to rewrite the expression into a safe form,
let's put it into a common function to reduce the risk of someone
doing it wrong in future.
In principle this is a bug fix, but since the problem could only
manifest with group count estimates exceeding 2^63, it seems unlikely
that anyone has actually hit this or will do so anytime soon. We're
fixing it mainly to satisfy fuzzer-type tools. That being the case,
a HEAD-only fix seems sufficient.

This new-in-v15 test case assumed it could set max_stack_depth as high
as 2MB. You might think that'd be true on any modern platform but
you'd be wrong, as I found out while experimenting with NetBSD/hppa.
This test is about privileges not platform capabilities, so there seems
no need to use any value greater than the 100kB setting already used
in a couple of places in the core regression tests. There's certainly
no call to expect people to raise their platform's default ulimit just
to run this test.

In order to estimate the cache hit ratio of a Memoize node, one of the
inputs we require is the estimated number of times the Memoize node will
be rescanned. The higher this number, the large the cache hit ratio is
likely to become. Unfortunately, the value being passed as the number of
"calls" to the Memoize was incorrectly using the Nested Loop's
outer_path->parent->rows instead of outer_path->rows. This failed to
account for the fact that the outer_path might be parameterized by some
upper-level Nested Loop.
This problem could lead to Memoize plans appearing more favorable than
they might actually be. It could also lead to extended executor startup
times when work_mem values were large due to the planner setting overly
large MemoizePath->est_entries resulting in the Memoize hash table being
initially made much larger than might be required.
Fix this simply by passing outer_path->rows rather than
outer_path->parent->rows. Also, adjust the expected regression test
output for a plan change.

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.

Currently, preloaded libraries are expected to request additional
shared memory and LWLocks in _PG_init(). However, it is not unusal
for such requests to depend on MaxBackends, which won't be
initialized at that time. Such requests could also depend on GUCs
that other modules might change. This introduces a new hook where
modules can safely use MaxBackends and GUCs to request additional
shared memory and LWLocks.
Furthermore, this change restricts requests for shared memory and
LWLocks to this hook. Previously, libraries could make requests
until the size of the main shared memory segment was calculated.
Unlike before, we no longer silently ignore requests received at
invalid times. Instead, we FATAL if someone tries to request
additional shared memory or LWLocks outside of the hook.

Run renumber_oids.pl to move high-numbered OIDs down, as per pre-beta
tasks specified by RELEASE_CHANGES. For reference, the command was
./renumber_oids.pl --first-mapped-oid 8000 --target-oid 6205
The original coding did this in pqDropServerData(), which seems
fairly backwards. Pending commands are more like already-queued
output data, which is dropped in pqDropConnection(). Moving the
operation means that we clear the command queue immediately upon
detecting connection drop, which improves the sanity of subsequent
behavior. In particular this eliminates duplicated error message
text as a consequence of code added in b15f25446, which supposed
that a nonempty command queue must mean the prior operation is
still active.
There might be an argument for backpatching this to v14; but as with

given the lack of complaints about v14's behavior, leave it alone.

Presently, the server may emit a variety of log messages when inspecting
a runtime-computed GUC, mostly in the shape of one LOG message with the
default configuration, related to the startup sequence launched as such
GUCs require a load of the control file and of external shared
libraries.
For example, the server will always emit a "database system is shut
down" LOG (unless the user has set log_min_messages higher than LOG),
which is an annoying behavior as "postgres -C" is expected to only emit
in its output the parameter value we are looking for. The parameter
value is sent to stdout, while the logs are sent to stderr so we could
recommend to use a redirection, but there was not much love for this
workaround either.
To avoid such extra log messages, per discussion, this change sets
log_min_messages to FATAL internally when -C is used on a
runtime-computed GUC (even if set to PANIC in postgresql.conf). At
FATAL, the user will still receive messages explaining why a GUC value
cannot be inspected, and will know if the command is attempted on a
server already running, something not supported yet for a

The current setup assumes that commands for lz4, zstd and gzip always
exist by default if not enforced by a user's environment. However,
vcpkg, as one example, installs libraries but no binaries, so this
default setup to assume that a command should always be present would
cause failures. This commit improves the detection of such external
commands as follows:
* If a ENV value is available, trust the environment/user and use it.
* If a ENV value is not available, check its execution by looking in the
current PATH, by launching a simple "$command --version" (that should be
portable enough).
** On execution failure, ignore ENV{command}.
** On execution success, set ENV{command} = "$command".
Note that this new rule applies to gzip, lz4 and zstd but not tar that
we assume will always exist. Those commands are set up in the
environment only when using bincheck and taptest. The CI includes all
those commands and I have checked that their setup is correct there. I
have also tested this change in a MSVC environment where we have none of
those commands.

values should be used as reference points for the cleanup. This causes
a follow-up restart attempting crash recovery to fail with a PANIC on a
missing checkpoint record if the end-of-recovery checkpoint triggered by
the promotion did not complete while the cluster abruptly stopped or
crashed before the completion of this checkpoint. The PANIC would be
caused by the redo LSN referred in the control file as located in a
segment already gone, recycled by the previous restartpoint with
"checkPoint" out-of-sync in the control file.
This commit fixes the update of the control file during restartpoints so
as "checkPoint" and "checkPointCopy" are updated even if the cluster has
been promoted while a restartpoint is running, to be on par with the set
of WAL segments actually recycled in the end of CreateRestartPoint().
This problem exists in all the stable branches. However, commit
7ff23c6, by removing the last call of CreateCheckPoint() from the
startup process, has made this bug much easier to reason about as
concurrent checkpoints are not possible anymore. No backpatch is done
yet, mostly out of caution from me as a point release is close by, but
we need to think harder about the case of concurrent checkpoints at
promotion if the bgwriter is not considered as running by the startup
process in ~v14, so this change is done only on HEAD for the moment.

Commits 4eb21763 and b74e94dc introduced a way to force every backend to
close all relation files, to fix an ancient Windows-only bug.
This commit extends that behavior to all operating systems and adds
a couple of extra barrier points, to fix a totally different class of
bug: the reuse of relfilenodes in scenarios that have no other kind of
cache invalidation to prevent file descriptor mix-ups.
In all releases, data corruption could occur when you moved a database
to another tablespace and then back again. Despite that, no back-patch
for now as the infrastructure required is too new and invasive. In
master only, since commit aa010514, it could also happen when using
CREATE DATABASE with a user-supplied OID or via pg_upgrade.

SubqueryScan was always getting labeled with a rowcount estimate
appropriate for non-parallel cases. However, nodes that are
underneath a Gather should be treated as processing only one
worker's share of the rows, whether the particular node is explicitly
parallel-aware or not. Most non-scan-level node types get this
right automatically because they base their rowcount estimate on
that of their input sub-Path(s). But SubqueryScan didn't do that,
instead using the whole-relation rowcount estimate as if it were
a non-parallel-aware scan node. If there is a parallel-aware node
below the SubqueryScan, this is wrong, and it results in inflating
the cost estimates for nodes above the SubqueryScan, which can cause
us to not choose a parallel plan, or choose a silly one --- as indeed
is visible in the one regression test whose results change with this
patch. (Although that plan tree appears to contain no SubqueryScans,
there were some in it before setrefs.c deleted them.)
To fix, use path->subpath->rows not baserel->tuples as the number
of input tuples we'll process. This requires estimating the quals'
selectivity afresh, which is slightly annoying; but it shouldn't
really add much cost thanks to the caching done in RestrictInfo.
This is pretty clearly a bug fix, but I'll refrain from back-patching
as people might not appreciate plan choices changing in stable branches.
The fact that it took us this long to identify the bug suggests that
it's not a major problem.

The testclient and uri-regress programs in the libpq test suite had

The tests added in 9f8a050f68 failed nearly reliably on FreeBSD in CI, and
occasionally on the buildfarm. That turns out to be caused not by a bug in the
test, but by a longstanding bug in recovery conflict handling.
The standby timeout handler, used by ResolveRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin(),
executed SendRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin() inside a signal handler. A bad
idea, because the deadlock timeout handler (or a spurious latch set) could
have interrupted ProcWaitForSignal(). If unlucky that could cause a
self-deadlock on ProcArrayLock, if the deadlock check is in
SendRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin()->CancelDBBackends().
To fix, set a flag in StandbyTimeoutHandler(), and check the flag in
ResolveRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin().
Subsequently the recovery conflict tests will be backpatched.

Instability in the test for pg_walinspect revealed that
pg_get_wal_records_info_till_end_of_wal(x) would try to decode all the
records with a start LSN earlier than the flush LSN, even though that
might include a partial record at the end of the range. In that case,
read_local_xlog_page_no_wait() would return NULL when it tried to read
past the flush LSN, which would be interpreted as an error by the
caller. That caused a test failure only on a BF animal that had been
restarted recently, but could be expected to happen in the wild quite
easily depending on the alignment of various parameters.
Fix by using private data in read_local_xlog_page_no_wait() to signal
end-of-wal to the caller, so that it can be properly distinguished
from a real error.

I noticed that plpgsql would allow assignment of a new value to a
variable even when that variable is marked CONSTANT, if the variable
is used as an output parameter in CALL or is a refcursor variable
that OPEN assigns a new value to. Fix these oversights.
In the CALL case, the check has to be done at runtime because we
cannot know at parse time which parameters are OUT parameters.
For OPEN, it seems best to likewise enforce at runtime because
then we needn't throw error if the variable has a nonnull value
(since OPEN will only try to overwrite a null value).
Although this is surely a bug fix, no back-patch: it seems unlikely
that anyone would thank us for breaking formerly-working code in
minor releases.

ForeignPath, causing a segmentation fault there when the subplan created

kestrel, rorqual and calliphoridae, the assertions checking that a TLI
history file should not exist when created by a WAL receiver have been

durable_rename_excl() attempts to avoid overwriting any existing files
by using link() and unlink(), falling back to rename() on some platforms
(e.g., Windows where link() followed by unlink() is not concurrent-safe,
see 909b449). Most callers of durable_rename_excl() use it just in case
there is an existing file, but it happens that for all of them we never
expect a target file to exist (WAL segment recycling, creation of
timeline history file and basic_archive).
basic_archive used durable_rename_excl() to avoid overwriting an archive
concurrently created by another server. Now, there is a stat() call to
avoid overwriting an existing archive a couple of lines above, so note
that this change opens a small TOCTOU window in this module between the
stat() call and durable_rename().
Furthermore, as mentioned in the top comment of durable_rename_excl(),
this routine can result in multiple hard links to the same file and data
corruption, with two or more links to the same file in pg_wal/ if a
crash happens before the unlink() call during WAL recycling.
Specifically, this would produce links to the same file for the current
WAL file and the next one because the half-recycled WAL file was
re-recycled during crash recovery of a follow-up cluster restart.
This change replaces all calls to durable_rename_excl() with
durable_rename(). This removes the protection against accidentally
overwriting an existing file, but some platforms are already living
without it, and all those code paths never expect an existing file (a
couple of assertions are added to check after that, in case).
This is a bug fix, but knowing the unlikeliness of the problem involving
one of more crashes at an exceptionally bad moment, no backpatch is
done. This could be revisited in the future.

This commit adds two isolation tests for CLUSTER, using:
- A normal table, making sure that CLUSTER blocks and completes if the
table is locked by a concurrent session.
- A partitioned table with a partition owned by a different user. If
the partitioned table is locked by a concurrent session, CLUSTER on the
partitioned table should block. If the partition owned by a different
user is locked, CLUSTER on its partitioned table should complete and
skip the partition. 3f19e17 has added an early check to ignore such a
partition with a SQL regression test, but this was not checking that
CLUSTER should not block.

Another test is constructed on top of regression tests, which does not
work correctly with unlogged tables. For now, cope with that by making
sure no unlogged table is left behind.
Per buildfarm pink after 4fb5c794e5.
Several places didn't do it, and in many cases it didn't matter because
it would be a small allocation in a short-lived context; but other
places may accumulate a few (for example, in CreateDatabaseUsingFileCopy,
one per tablespace). In most databases this is highly unlikely to be
very serious either, but it seems better to make the code consistent in
case there's future copy-and-paste.
The only case of actual concern seems to be the aforementioned routine,
which is new with commit 9c08aea6a3, so there's no need to backpatch.
As pointed out by Coverity.
This function looks for a reference to the recursive WITH CTE,
but it checked only the CTE name not ctelevelsup, so that it could
seize on a lower CTE that happened to have the same name. This
would result in planner failures later, either weird errors such as
"could not find attribute 2 in subquery targetlist", or crashes
or assertion failures. The code also merely Assert'ed that it found
a matching entry, which is not guaranteed at all by the parser.

697492434 added 3 new qsort specialization functions aimed to improve the
performance of sorting many of the common pass-by-value data types when
they're the leading or only sort key.
Unfortunately, that has caused a performance regression when sorting
datasets where many of the values being compared were equal. What was
happening here was that we were falling back to the standard sort
comparison function to handle tiebreaks. When the two given Datums
compared equally we would incur both the overhead of an indirect function
call to the standard comparer to perform the tiebreak and also the
standard comparer function would go and compare the leading key needlessly
all over again.
Here improve the situation in the 3 new comparison functions. We now
return 0 directly when the two Datums compare equally and we're performing
a 1-key sort.
Here we don't do anything to help the multi-key sort case where the
leading key uses one of the sort specializations functions. On testing
this case, even when the leading key's values are all equal, there
appeared to be no performance regression. Let's leave it up to future
work to optimize that case so that the tiebreak function no longer
re-compares the leading key over again.
Another possible fix for this would have been to add 3 additional sort
specialization functions to handle single-key sorts for these
pass-by-value types. The reason we didn't do that here is that we may
deem some other sort specialization to be more useful than single-key
sorts. It may be impractical to have sort specialization functions for
every single combination of what may be useful and it was already decided
that further analysis into which ones are the most useful would be delayed
until the v16 cycle. Let's not let this regression force our hand into
trying to make that decision for v15.

inline_cte() expected to find exactly as many references to the
target CTE as its cterefcount indicates. While that should be
accurate for the tree as emitted by the parser, there are some
optimizations that occur upstream of here that could falsify it,
notably removal of unused subquery output expressions.
Trying to make the accounting 100% accurate seems expensive and
doomed to future breakage. It's not really worth it, because
all this code is protecting is downstream assumptions that every
referenced CTE has a plan. Let's convert those assertions to
regular test-and-elog just in case there's some actual problem,

Commit 618c16707 invented an "error_result" flag in PGconn, which
intends to represent the state that we have an error condition and
need to build a PGRES_FATAL_ERROR PGresult from the message text in
conn->errorMessage, but have not yet done so. (Postponing construction
of the error object simplifies dealing with out-of-memory conditions
and with concatenation of messages for multiple errors.) For nearly all
purposes, this "virtual" PGresult object should act the same as if it
were already materialized. But a couple of places in fe-protocol3.c
didn't get that memo, and were only testing conn->result as they used
to, without also checking conn->error_result.

Commit aa0105141 assigned fixed OIDs to template0 and postgres
in a very ad-hoc way. Notably, instead of teaching Catalog.pm
about these OIDs, the unused_oids script was just hacked to
not show them as unused. That's problematic since, for example,
duplicate_oids wouldn't report any future conflict. Hence,
invent a macro DECLARE_OID_DEFINING_MACRO() that can be used to
define an OID that is known to Catalog.pm and will participate
in duplicate-detection as well as renumbering by renumber_oids.pl.
(We don't anticipate renumbering these particular OIDs, but we
might as well build out all the Catalog.pm infrastructure while
we're here.)
Another issue is that aa0105141 neglected to touch IsPinnedObject,
with the result that it now claimed template0 and postgres are
pinned. The right thing to do there seems to be to teach it that
no database is pinned, since in fact DROP DATABASE doesn't check
for pinned-ness (and at least for these cases, that is an
intentional choice). It's not clear whether this wrong answer
had any visible effect, but perhaps it could have resulted in
erroneous management of dependency entries.
In passing, rename the TemplateDbOid macro to Template1DbOid
to reduce confusion (likely we should have done that way back
when we invented template0, but we didn't), and rename the
OID macros for template0 and postgres to have a similar style.
There are no changes to postgres.bki here, so no need for a
catversion bump.
