Add a .git-blame-ignore-revs file with a list of pgindent, pgperlyidy,
and reformat-dat-files commit hashes. Postgres hackers that configure
git to use the ignore file will get git-blame output that avoids
attributing line changes to the ignored indent commits. This makes

In dc7420c2c9 I (Andres) accidentally used
RelationIsAccessibleInLogicalDecoding() as the sole condition to use the
non-shared catalog horizon in GetOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). That is
incorrect, as RelationIsAccessibleInLogicalDecoding() checks whether wal_level
is logical.
The correct check, as done e.g. in GlobalVisTestFor(), is to check
IsCatalogRelation() and RelationIsAccessibleInLogicalDecoding().
The observed misbehavior of this bug was that there could be an endless loop
in lazy_scan_prune(), because the horizons used in heap_page_prune() and the
individual tuple liveliness checks did not match. Likely there are other
potential consequences as well.
A later commit will unify the determination which horizon has to be used, and
add additional assertions to make it easier to catch a bug like this.

linitial_node() fails in assert enabled builds if the given pointer is
not of the specified type. Here the type is IntList. The code thought
it should be expecting List, but it was wrong.
In the existing tests which run this code the initial list element is
always NIL. Since linitial_node() allows NULL, we didn't trigger any
assert failures in the existing regression tests.
There is still some discussion as to whether we need a few more tests in
this area, but for now, since beta2 is looming, fix the bug first.

Code comments were claiming that verify_heapam() was checking
privileges on the relation it was operating on, but it didn't actually
do that. Perhaps earlier versions of the patch did that, but now the
access is regulated by privileges on the function. Remove the wrong
comments.
The failsafe can trigger when index processing is already disabled.
This can happen when VACUUM's INDEX_CLEANUP parameter is "off" and the
failsafe happens to trigger. Remove assertions that assume that index
processing is directly tied to the failsafe.
Oversight in commit c242baa4, which made it possible for the failsafe to
trigger in a two-pass strategy VACUUM that has yet to make its first
call to lazy_vacuum_all_indexes().
This reverts commit 09126984a263; the test case added there failed once
in circumstances that remain mysterious. It seems better to remove the
test for now so that 14beta2 doesn't have random failures built in.
Buildfarm members ayu and tern have sometimes shown a different
plan than expected for this query. I'd been unable to reproduce
that before today, but I finally realized what is happening.
If there is a concurrent open transaction (probably an autovacuum
run in the buildfarm, but this can also be arranged manually),
then the index entries for the rows removed by the DELETE a few
lines up are not killed promptly, causing a change in the planner's
estimate of the extremal value of ft2.c1, which moves the rowcount
estimate for "c1 > 1100" by enough to change the join plan from
nestloop to hash.
To fix, change the query condition to "c1 > 1000", causing the
hash plan to be preferred whether or not a concurrent open
transaction exists. Since this UPDATE is tailored to be a no-op,
nothing else changes.

We had a request to provide a way to test at compile time for the
availability of the new pipeline features. More generally, it
seems like a good idea to provide a way to test via #ifdef for
all new libpq API features. People have been using the version
from pg_config.h for that; but that's more likely to represent the
server version than the libpq version, in the increasingly-common
scenario where they're different. It's safer if libpq-fe.h itself
is the source of truth about what features it offers.
Hence, establish a policy that starting in v14 we'll add a suitable
feature-is-present macro to libpq-fe.h when we add new API there.
(There doesn't seem to be much point in applying this policy
retroactively, but it's not too late for v14.)

Generalize the INDEX_CLEANUP VACUUM parameter (and the corresponding
reloption): make it into a ternary style boolean parameter. It now
exposes a third option, "auto". The "auto" option (which is now the
default) enables the "bypass index vacuuming" optimization added by
commit 1e55e7d1.
"VACUUM (INDEX_CLEANUP TRUE)" is redefined to once again make VACUUM
simply do any required index vacuuming, regardless of how few dead
tuples are encountered during the first scan of the target heap relation
(unless there are exactly zero). This gives users a way of opting out
of the "bypass index vacuuming" optimization, if for whatever reason
that proves necessary. It is also expected to be used by PostgreSQL
developers as a testing option from time to time.
"VACUUM (INDEX_CLEANUP FALSE)" does the same thing as it always has: it
forcibly disables both index vacuuming and index cleanup. It's not
expected to be used much in PostgreSQL 14. The failsafe mechanism added
by commit 1e55e7d1 addresses the same problem in a simpler way.
INDEX_CLEANUP can now be thought of as a testing and compatibility
option.

In the "simple Query" code path, it's fine for parse analysis or
execution of a utility statement to scribble on the statement's node
tree, since that'll just be thrown away afterwards. However it's
not fine if the node tree is in the plan cache, as then it'd be
corrupted for subsequent executions. Up to now we've dealt with
that by having individual utility-statement functions apply
copyObject() if they were going to modify the tree. But that's
prone to errors of omission. Bug #17053 from Charles Samborski
shows that CREATE/ALTER DOMAIN didn't get this memo, and can
crash if executed repeatedly from plan cache.
In the back branches, we'll just apply a narrow band-aid for that,
but in HEAD it seems prudent to have a more principled fix that
will close off the possibility of other similar bugs in future.
Hence, let's hoist the responsibility for doing copyObject up into
ProcessUtility from its children, thus ensuring that it happens for
all utility statement types.
Also, modify ProcessUtility's API so that its callers can tell it
whether a copy step is necessary. It turns out that in all cases,
the immediate caller knows whether the node tree is transient, so
this doesn't involve a huge amount of code thrashing. In this way,
while we lose a little bit in the execute-from-cache code path due
to sometimes copying node trees that wouldn't be mutated anyway,
we gain something in the simple-Query code path by not copying
throwaway node trees. Statements that are complex enough to be
expensive to copy are almost certainly ones that would have to be
copied anyway, so the loss in the cache code path shouldn't be much.
(Note that this whole problem applies only to utility statements.
Optimizable statements don't have the issue because we long ago made
the executor treat Plan trees as read-only. Perhaps someday we will
make utility statement execution act likewise, but I'm not holding
my breath.)

One of the error paths left *members uninitialized. That's not a live
bug, because most callers don't look at *members when the function
returns -1, but let's be tidy. One caller, in heap_lock_tuple(), does
"if (members != NULL) pfree(members)", but AFAICS it never passes an
invalid 'multi' value so it should not reach that error case.
The callers are also a bit inconsistent in their expectations.
heap_lock_tuple() pfrees the 'members' array if it's not-NULL, others
pfree() it if "nmembers >= 0", and others if "nmembers > 0". That's
not a live bug either, because the function should never return 0, but
add an Assert for that to make it more clear. I left the callers alone
for now.
I also moved the line where we set *nmembers. It wasn't wrong before,
but I like to do that right next to the 'return' statement, to make it
clear that it's always set on return.
Also remove one unreachable return statement after ereport(ERROR), for
brevity and for consistency with the similar if-block right after it.

When stuffing a plan from the plancache into a Portal, one is
not supposed to risk throwing an error between GetCachedPlan and
PortalDefineQuery; if that happens, the plan refcount incremented
by GetCachedPlan will be leaked. I managed to break this rule
while refactoring code in 9dbf2b7d7. There is no visible
consequence other than some memory leakage, and since nobody is
very likely to trigger the relevant error conditions many times
in a row, it's not surprising we haven't noticed. Nonetheless,
it's a bug, so rearrange the order of operations to remove the

Commit b676ac443b optimized handling of tuple slots with bulk inserts
into foreign tables, so that the slots are initialized only once and
reused for all batches. The data was however copied into the slots only
after the initialization, inserting duplicate values when the slot gets
reused. Fixed by moving the ExecCopySlot outside the init branch.
The existing postgres_fdw tests failed to catch this due to inserting
data into foreign tables without unique indexes, and then checking only
the number of inserted rows. This adds a new test with both a unique
index and a check of inserted values.

I started out with the goal of reporting ERRCODE_CONNECTION_FAILURE

whoever wrote this code was of the opinion that errcodes are purely
optional. That's not my understanding of our project policy. Hence,
make sure that an errcode is provided in each ereport that (a) is
ERROR or higher level and (b) isn't arguably an internal logic error.
Also fix some very dubious existing errcode assignments.

During decoding for speculative inserts, we were relying for cleaning
toast hash on confirmation records or next change records. But that
could lead to multiple problems (a) memory leak if there is neither a
confirmation record nor any other record after toast insertion for a
speculative insert in the transaction, (b) error and assertion failures
if the next operation is not an insert/update on the same table.
The fix is to start queuing spec abort change and clean up toast hash
and change record during its processing. Currently, we are queuing the
spec aborts for both toast and main table even though we perform cleanup
while processing the main table's spec abort record. Later, if we have a
way to distinguish between the spec abort record of toast and the main
table, we can avoid queuing the change for spec aborts of toast tables.

Recent glibc versions have made mktime() fail if tm_isdst is
inconsistent with the prevailing timezone; in particular it fails for
tm_isdst = 1 when the zone is UTC. (This seems wildly inconsistent
with the POSIX-mandated treatment of "incorrect" values for the other
fields of struct tm, so if you ask me it's a bug, but I bet they'll
say it's intentional.) This has been observed to cause cosmetic
problems when pg_restore'ing an archive created in a different
timezone.
To fix, do mktime() using the field values from the archive, and if
that fails try again with tm_isdst = -1. This will give a result
that's off by the UTC-offset difference from the original zone, but
that was true before, too. It's not terribly critical since we don't
do anything with the result except possibly print it. (Someday we
should flush this entire bit of logic and record a standard-format
timestamp in the archive instead. That's not okay for a back-patched
bug fix, though.)
Also, guard our only other use of mktime() by having initdb's
build_time_t() set tm_isdst = -1 not 0. This case could only have
an issue in zones that are DST year-round; but I think some do exist,
or could in future.

Several TAP tests use poll_query_until() to wait for the postmaster
to restart. They were checking to see if a trivial query
(e.g. "SELECT 1") succeeds. However, that's problematic in the wake
of commit 11e9caff8, because now that we feed said query to psql
via stdin, we risk IPC::Run whining about a SIGPIPE failure if psql
quits before reading the query. Hence, we can't use a nonempty
query in cases where we need to wait for connection failures to
stop happening.
Per the precedent of commits c757a3da0 and 6d41dd045, we can pass
"undef" as the query in such cases to ensure that IPC::Run has
nothing to write. However, then we have to say that the expected
output is empty, and this exposes a deficiency in poll_query_until:
if psql fails altogether and returns empty stdout, poll_query_until
will treat that as a success! That's because, contrary to its
documentation, it makes no actual check for psql failure, looking
neither at the exit status nor at stderr.
To fix that, adjust poll_query_until to insist on empty stderr as
well as a stdout match. (I experimented with checking exit status
instead, but it seems that psql often does exit(1) in cases that we
need to consider successes. That might be something to fix someday,
but it would be a non-back-patchable behavior change.)
Back-patch to v10. The test cases needing this exist only as far
back as v11, but it seems wise to keep poll_query_until's behavior
the same in v10, in case we back-patch another such test case in
future. (9.6 does not currently need this change, because in that
branch poll_query_until can't be told to accept empty stdout as
a success case.)
