When saving a replication slot, failing to close the temporary path used
to save the slot information is considered as a failure and reported as
such. However the code forgot to leave immediately as other failure
paths do.
Noticed while looking up at this area of the code for another patch.
Transient files and wait events get normally cleaned up when seeing an
exception (be it in the context of a transaction for a backend or
another process like the checkpointer), hence there is little point in
complicating error code paths to do this work. This shaves a bit of
code, and removes some extra handling with errno which needed to be
preserved during the cleanup steps done.

Per discussion with others, allowing REINDEX INDEX CONCURRENTLY to work
for invalid indexes when working directly on them can have a lot of
value to unlock situations with invalid indexes without having to use a
dance involving DROP INDEX followed by an extra CREATE INDEX
CONCURRENTLY (which would not work for indexes with constraint
dependency anyway). This also does not create extra bloat on the
relation involved as this works on individual indexes, so let's enable
it.
Note that REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY still bypasses invalid indexes as
we don't want to bloat the number of indexes defined on a relation in
the event of multiple and successive failures of REINDEX CONCURRENTLY.
More regression tests are added to cover those behaviors, using an
invalid index created with CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY.

Concurrent autovacuum could result in a change in the order of the
live rows in timestamp_tbl. While this would not happen with the
default autovacuum parameters, it's fairly easy to hit if
autovacuum_vacuum_threshold is made small enough to allow autovac
to decide to process this table. That's a stumbling block for trying
to exercise autovacuum aggressively using the core regression tests.
To fix, replace an unqualified DELETE with a TRUNCATE. There's a
similar DELETE just above (and no order-sensitive queries between),
so this doesn't lose any test coverage and might indeed be argued
to improve it.

Since Postgres 10, SHOW commands can be triggered with replication
connections in a WAL sender context, however it missed that a
transaction context is needed for syscache lookups. This commit makes
sure that the syscache lookups can happen correctly by setting a
transaction context when running SHOW commands in a WAL sender.
Superuser-only parameters can be displayed using SHOW commands not only
to superusers, but also to members of system role pg_read_all_settings,
which requires a syscache lookup to check if the connected role is a
member of this system role or not, or the instance crashes. Superusers
do not need to check the syscache so it worked correctly in this case.
New tests are added to cover this issue.

Up to now the tests of pg_rewind have been using a superuser for all its

PostgresNode::init is extended so as callers of this routine can add
extra options to configure the authentication of a new node, which gets
used by this commit, and allows the tests to work properly on Windows

The original coding of generate_partition_qual() just copied the list
of predicate expressions into the global CacheMemoryContext, making it
effectively impossible to clean up when the owning relcache entry is
destroyed --- the relevant code in RelationDestroyRelation() only managed
to free the topmost List header :-(. This resulted in a session-lifespan
memory leak whenever a table partition's relcache entry is rebuilt.
Fortunately, that's not normally a large data structure, and rebuilds
shouldn't occur all that often in production situations; but this is
still a bug worth fixing back to v10 where the code was introduced.
To fix, put the cached expression tree into its own small memory context,
as we do with other complicated substructures of relcache entries.
Also, deal more honestly with the case that a partition has an empty
partcheck list; while that probably isn't a case that's very interesting
for production use, it's legal.
In passing, clarify comments about how partitioning-related relcache
data structures are managed, and add some Asserts that we're not leaking
old copies when we overwrite these data fields.

postmaster startup scrutinizes any shared memory segment recorded in
postmaster.pid, exiting if that segment matches the current data
directory and has an attached process. When the postmaster.pid file was
missing, a starting postmaster used weaker checks. Change to use the
same checks in both scenarios. This increases the chance of a startup
failure, in lieu of data corruption, if the DBA does "kill -9 `head -n1
postmaster.pid` && rm postmaster.pid && pg_ctl -w start". A postmaster
will no longer stop if shmat() of an old segment fails with EACCES. A
postmaster will no longer recycle segments pertaining to other data
directories. That's good for production, but it's bad for integration
tests that crash a postmaster and immediately delete its data directory.
Such a test now leaks a segment indefinitely. No "make check-world"
test does that. win32_shmem.c already avoided all these problems. In
9.6 and later, enhance PostgresNode to facilitate testing. Back-patch

In case of a partition index, when swapping the old and new index, we
also need to attach the new index as a partition and detach the old
one. Also, to handle partition indexes, we not only need to change
dependencies referencing the index, but also dependencies of the index
referencing something else. The previous code did this only
specifically for a constraint, but we also need to do this for
partitioned indexes. So instead write a generic function that does it

Move the strings, numerology, insert, insert_conflict, select and

executing by themselves. (Moving "select" required adjusting the
constraints test, which uses a table named "tmp" as select also
does. There don't seem to be any other conflicts.)
Move psql and stats_ext to the next parallel group, where the rules
test also has a long runtime. To make it safe to run stats_ext in
parallel with rules, I adjusted the latter to only dump views/rules
from the pg_catalog and public schemas, which was what it was doing
anyway. stats_ext makes some views in a transient schema, which now
will not affect rules.

This test script verifies that KNN searches of an SP-GiST index
produce the same sort order as a seqscan-and-sort. The FULL JOINs
used for that are exceedingly slow, however. Investigation shows
that the problem is that the initial join is on the rank() values,
and we have a lot of duplicates due to the data set containing 1000
duplicate points. We're therefore going to produce 1000000 join
rows that have to be thrown away again by the join filter.
We can improve matters by using row_number() instead of rank(),
so that the initial join keys are unique. The catch is that
that makes the results sensitive to the sorting of rows with
equal distances from the reference point. That doesn't matter
for the actually-equal points, but as luck would have it, the
data set also contains two distinct points that have identical
distances to the origin. So those two rows could legitimately
appear in either order, causing unwanted output from the check
queries.
However, it doesn't seem like it's the job of this test to
check whether the <-> operator correctly computes distances;
its charter is just to verify that SP-GiST emits the values
in distance order. So we can dodge the indeterminacy problem
by having the check only compare row numbers and distances
not the actual point values.
This change reduces the run time of create_index_spgist by a good
three-quarters, on my machine, with ensuing beneficial effects on
the runtime of create_index (thanks to interactions with CREATE
INDEX CONCURRENTLY tests in the latter). I see a net improvement
of more than 2X in the runtime of their parallel test group.

The point of this change is to increase the potential for parallelism
while running the core regression tests. Most people these days are
using parallel testing modes on multi-core machines, so we might as
well try a bit harder to keep multiple cores busy. Hence, a test that
runs much longer than others in its parallel group is a candidate to
be sub-divided.
In this patch, create_index.sql and join.sql are split up.
I haven't changed the content of the tests in any way, just
moved them.
I moved create_index.sql's SP-GiST-related tests into a new script
create_index_spgist, and moved its btree multilevel page deletion test
over to the existing script btree_index. (btree_index is a more natural
home for that test, and it's shorter than others in its parallel group,
so this doesn't hurt total runtime of that group.) There might be
room for more aggressive splitting of create_index, but this is enough
to improve matters considerably.
Likewise, I moved join.sql's "exercises for the hash join code" into
a new file join_hash. Those exercises contributed three-quarters of
the script's runtime. Which might well be excessive ... but for the
moment, I'm satisfied with shoving them into a different parallel
group, where they can share runtime with the roughly-equally-lengthy
gist test.
(Note for anybody following along at home: there are interesting
interactions between the runtimes of create_index and anything running
in parallel with it, because the tests of CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY
in that file will repeatedly block waiting for concurrent transactions
to commit. As committed in this patch, create_index and
create_index_spgist have roughly equal runtimes, but that's mostly an
artifact of forced synchronization of the CONCURRENTLY tests; when run
serially, create_index is much faster. A followup patch will reduce
the runtime of create_index_spgist and thereby also create_index.)

The test for statement timeout has a 2-second timeout, which was only
moderately annoying when it was written, but nowadays it contributes
a pretty significant chunk of the elapsed time needed to run the core
regression tests on a fast machine. We can improve this situation by
pushing the test into a plpgsql-specific test file instead of having
it in a core regression test. That's a clean win when considering
just the core tests. Even when considering check-world or a buildfarm
test run, we should come out ahead because the core tests get run
more times in those sequences.
Furthermore, since the plpgsql tests aren't currently parallelized,
it seems likely that the timing problems reflected in commit f1e671a0b
(which increased that timeout from 1 sec to 2) will be much less severe
in this context. Hence, let's try cutting the timeout back to 1 second
in hopes of a further win for check-world. We can undo that if
buildfarm experience proves it to be a bad idea.
To give the new test file some modicum of intellectual coherency,
I moved the surrounding tests related to error-trapping along with
the statement timeout test proper. Those other tests don't run long
enough to have any particular bearing on test-runtime considerations.
The tests are the same as before, except with minor adjustments to
not depend on an externally-created table.
