914d2383ae Correctly mark pg_subscription.subslotname as nullable.
Due to the layout of this catalog, subslotname has to be explicitly
marked BKI_FORCE_NULL, else initdb will default to the assumption
that it's non-nullable.  Since, in fact, CREATE/ALTER SUBSCRIPTION
will store null values there, the existing marking is just wrong,
and has been since this catalog was invented.

We haven't noticed because not much in the system actually depends
on attnotnull being truthful.  However, JIT'ed tuple deconstruction
does depend on that in some cases, allowing crashes or wrong answers
in queries that inspect pg_subscription.  Commit 9de77b545 quite
accidentally exposed this on the buildfarm members that force JIT
activation.

Back-patch to v13.  The problem goes further back, but we cannot
force initdb in released branches, so some klugier solution will
be needed there.  Before working on that, push this simple fix
to try to get the buildfarm back to green.

71e8e66f78 Cope with data-offset-less archive files during out-of-order restores.
pg_dump produces custom-format archive files that lack data offsets
when it is unable to seek its output.  Up to now that's been a hazard
for pg_restore.  But if pg_restore is able to seek in the archive
file, there is no reason to throw up our hands when asked to restore
data blocks out of order.  Instead, whenever we are searching for a
data block, record the locations of the blocks we passed over (that
is, fill in the missing data-offset fields in our in-memory copy of
the TOC data).  Then, when we hit a case that requires going
backwards, we can just seek back.

Also track the furthest point that we've searched to, and seek back
to there when beginning a search for a new data block.  This avoids
possible O(N^2) time consumption, by ensuring that each data block
is examined at most twice.  (On Unix systems, that's at most twice
per parallel-restore job; but since Windows uses threads here, the
threads can share block location knowledge, reducing the amount of
duplicated work.)

We can also improve the code a bit by using fseeko() to skip over
data blocks during the search.

This is all of some use even in simple restores, but it's really
significant for parallel pg_restore.  In that case, we require
seekability of the input already, and we will very probably need
to do out-of-order restores.

Back-patch to v12, as this fixes a regression introduced by commit
548e50976.  Before that, parallel restore avoided requesting
out-of-order restores, so it would work on a data-offset-less
archive.  Now it will again.

Ideally this patch would include some test coverage, but there are
other open bugs that need to be fixed before we can extend our
coverage of parallel restore very much.  Plan to revisit that later.

447cf2f8e9 Remove manual tracking of file position in pg_dump/pg_backup_custom.c.
We do not really need to track the file position by hand.  We were
already relying on ftello() whenever the archive file is seekable,
while if it's not seekable we don't need the file position info
anyway because we're not going to be able to re-write the TOC.

Moreover, that tracking was buggy since it failed to account for
the effects of fseeko().  Somewhat remarkably, that seems not to
have made for any live bugs up to now.  We could fix the oversights,
but it seems better to just get rid of the whole error-prone mess.

In itself this is merely code cleanup.  However, it's necessary
infrastructure for an upcoming bug-fix patch (because that code
*does* need valid file position after fseeko).  The bug fix
needs to go back as far as v12; hence, back-patch that far.

49eb96852b Avoid CREATE INDEX unique index deduplication.
There is no advantage to attempting deduplication for a unique index
during CREATE INDEX, since there cannot possibly be any duplicates.
Doing so wastes cycles due to unnecessary copying.  Make sure that we
avoid it consistently.

We already avoided unique index deduplication in the case where there
were some spool2 tuples to merge.  That didn't account for the fact that
spool2 is removed early/unset in the common case where it has no tuples
that need to be merged (i.e. it failed to account for the "spool2 turns
out to be unnecessary" optimization in _bt_spools_heapscan()).

a220e345c8 Ensure that distributed timezone abbreviation files are plain ASCII.
We had two occurrences of "Mitteleuropäische Zeit" in Europe.txt,
though the corresponding entries in Default were spelled
"Mitteleuropaeische Zeit".  Standardize on the latter spelling to

While here, correct a couple of other trivial inconsistencies between
the Default file and the supposedly-matching entries in the *.txt
files, as exposed by some checking with comm(1).  Also, add BDST to
the Europe.txt file; it previously was only listed in Default.
None of this has any direct functional effect.

beebbb39d9 Switch pg_test_fsync to use binary mode on Windows
pg_test_fsync has always opened files using the text mode on Windows, as
this is the default mode used if not enforced by _setmode().

This fixes a failure when running pg_test_fsync down to 12 because
O_DSYNC and the text mode are not able to work together nicely.  We
fixed the handling of O_DSYNC in 12~ for the tool by switching to the
concurrent-safe version of fopen() in src/port/ with 0ba06e0.  And
40cfe86, by enforcing the text mode for compatibility reasons if O_TEXT
or O_BINARY are not specified by the caller, broke pg_test_fsync.  For
all versions, this avoids any translation overhead, and pg_test_fsync
should test binary writes, so it is a gain in all cases.

Note that O_DSYNC is still not handled correctly in ~11, leading to
pg_test_fsync to show insanely high numbers for open_datasync() (using
this property it is easy to notice that the binary mode is much
faster).  This would require a backpatch of 0ba06e0 and 40cfe86, which
could potentially break existing applications, so this is left out.

There are no TAP tests for this tool yet, so I have checked all builds
manually using MSVC.  We could invent a new option to run a single
transaction instead of using a duration of 1s to make the tests a
maximum short, but this is left as future work.

Thanks to Bruce Momjian for the discussion.

5f89bb4cf0 Fix handling of missing files when using pg_rewind with online source
When working with an online source cluster, pg_rewind gets a list of all
the files in the source data directory using a WITH RECURSIVE query,
returning a NULL result for a file's metadata if it gets removed between
the moment it is listed in a directory and the moment its metadata is
obtained with pg_stat_file() (say a recycled WAL segment).  The query
result was processed in such a way that for each tuple we checked only
that the first file's metadata was NULL.  This could have two
consequences, both resulting in a failure of the rewind:
- If the first tuple referred to a removed file, all files from the
source would be ignored.
- Any file actually missing would not be considered as such.

While on it, rework slightly the code so as no values are saved if we
know that a file is going to be skipped.

Issue introduced by b36805f, so backpatch down to 9.5.

e38705b5c7 Fix bitmap AND/OR scans on the inside of a nestloop partition-wise join.
reparameterize_path_by_child() failed to reparameterize BitmapAnd
and BitmapOr paths.  This matters only if such a path is chosen as
the inside of a nestloop partition-wise join, where we have to pass
in parameters from the outside of the nestloop.  If that did happen,
we generated a bad plan that would likely lead to crashes at execution.

This is not entirely reparameterize_path_by_child()'s fault though;
it's the victim of an ancient decision (my ancient decision, I think)
to not bother filling in param_info in BitmapAnd/Or path nodes.  That
caused the function to believe that such nodes and their children
contain no parameter references and so need not be processed.

In hindsight that decision looks pretty penny-wise and pound-foolish:
while it saves a few cycles during path node setup, we do commonly
need the information later.  In particular, by reversing the decision
and requiring valid param_info data in all nodes of a bitmap path
tree, we can get rid of indxpath.c's get_bitmap_tree_required_outer()
function, which computed the data on-demand.  It's not unlikely that
that nets out as a savings of cycles in many scenarios.  A couple
of other things in indxpath.c can be simplified as well.

While here, get rid of some cases in reparameterize_path_by_child()
that are visibly dead or useless, given that we only care about
reparameterizing paths that can be on the inside of a parameterized
nestloop.  This case reminds one of the maxim that untested code
probably does not work, so I'm unwilling to leave unreachable code
in this function.  (I did leave the T_Gather case in place even
though it's not reached in the regression tests.  It's not very
clear to me when the planner might prefer to put Gather below
rather than above a nestloop, but at least in principle the case
might be interesting.)

Per bug #16536, originally from Arne Roland but with a test case
by Andrew Gierth.  Back-patch to v11 where this code came in.

b827304291 Fix timing issue with ALTER TABLE's validate constraint
An ALTER TABLE to validate a foreign key in which another subcommand
already caused a pending table rewrite could fail due to ALTER TABLE
attempting to validate the foreign key before the actual table rewrite
takes place.  This situation could result in an error such as:

ERROR:  could not read block 0 in file "base/nnnnn/nnnnn": read only 0 of 8192 bytes

The failure here was due to the SPI call which validates the foreign key
trying to access an index which is yet to be rebuilt.

Similarly, we also incorrectly tried to validate CHECK constraints before
the heap had been rewritten.

The fix for both is to delay constraint validation until phase 3, after
the table has been rewritten.  For CHECK constraints this means a slight
behavioral change.  Previously ALTER TABLE VALIDATE CONSTRAINT on
inheritance tables would be validated from the bottom up.  This was
different from the order of evaluation when a new CHECK constraint was
added.  The changes made here aligns the VALIDATE CONSTRAINT evaluation
order for inheritance tables to be the same as ADD CONSTRAINT, which is
generally top-down.

0734dbc450 Cope with lateral references in the quals of a subquery RTE.
The qual pushdown logic assumed that all Vars in a restriction clause
must be Vars referencing subquery outputs; but since we introduced
LATERAL, it's possible for such a Var to be a lateral reference instead.
This led to an assertion failure in debug builds.  In a non-debug
build, there might be no ill effects (if qual_is_pushdown_safe decided
the qual was unsafe anyway), or we could get failures later due to
construction of an invalid plan.  I've not gone to much length to
characterize the possible failures, but at least segfaults in the
executor have been observed.

Given that this has been busted since 9.3 and it took this long for
anybody to notice, I judge that the case isn't worth going to great
lengths to optimize.  Hence, fix by just teaching qual_is_pushdown_safe
that such quals are unsafe to push down, matching the previous behavior
when it accidentally didn't fail.

bc9aaac1a1 Avoid trying to restore table ACLs and per-column ACLs in parallel.
Parallel pg_restore has always supposed that ACL items for different
objects are independent and can be restored in parallel without
conflicts.  However, there is one case where this fails: because
REVOKE on a table is defined to also revoke the privilege(s) at
column level, we can't restore per-column ACLs till after we restore
any table-level privileges on their table.  Failure to honor this
restriction can lead to "tuple concurrently updated" errors during
parallel restore, or even to the per-column ACLs silently disappearing
because the table-level REVOKE is executed afterwards.

To fix, add a dependency from each column-level ACL item to its table's
ACL item, if there is one.  Note that this doesn't fix the hazard
for pre-existing archive files, only for ones made with a corrected
pg_dump.  Given that the bug's been there quite awhile without
field reports, I think this is acceptable.

This requires changing the API of pg_dump's dumpACL() function.
To keep its argument list from getting even longer, I removed the
"CatalogId objCatId" argument, which has been unused for ages.

285da44a69 Fix whitespace in HashAgg EXPLAIN ANALYZE
The Sort node does not put a space between the number of kilobytes and
the "kB" of memory or disk space used, but HashAgg does.  Here we align
HashAgg to do the same as Sort.  Sort has been displaying this
information for longer than HashAgg, so it makes sense to align HashAgg
to Sort rather than the other way around.

Morph pg_replication_slots.min_safe_lsn to safe_wal_size
The previous definition of the column was almost universally disliked,
so provide this updated definition which is more useful for monitoring
purposes: a large positive value is good, while zero or a negative value
means danger.  This should be operationally more convenient.

Backpatch to 13, where the new column to pg_replication_slots (and the
feature it represents) were added.

c536da177c Fix "ignoring return value" complaints from commit 96d1f423f9
The cfbot and some BF animals are complaining about the previous
read_binary_file commit because of ignoring return value of ‘fread’.
So let's make everyone happy by testing the return value even though
not strictly needed.

Reported by Justin Pryzby, and suggested patch by Tom Lane. Backpatched
to v11 same as the previous commit.

0025c3a2c2 Read until EOF vice stat-reported size in read_binary_file
read_binary_file(), used by SQL functions pg_read_file() and friends,
uses stat to determine file length to read, when not passed an explicit
length as an argument. This is problematic, for example, if the file
being read is a virtual file with a stat-reported length of zero.
Arrange to read until EOF, or StringInfo data string lenth limit, is
reached instead.

Original complaint and patch by me, with significant review, corrections,
advice, and code optimizations by Tom Lane. Backpatched to v11. Prior to
that only paths relative to the data and log dirs were allowed for files,
so no "zero length" files were reachable anyway.

9233624b12 Clamp total-tuples estimates for foreign tables to ensure planner sanity.
After running GetForeignRelSize for a foreign table, adjust rel->tuples
to be at least as large as rel->rows.  This prevents bizarre behavior
in estimate_num_groups() and perhaps other places, especially in the
scenario where rel->tuples is zero because pg_class.reltuples is
(suggesting that ANALYZE has never been run for the table).  As things
stood, we'd end up estimating one group out of any GROUP BY on such a
table, whereas the default group-count estimate is more likely to result
in a sane plan.

Also, clarify in the documentation that GetForeignRelSize has the option
to override the rel->tuples value if it has a better idea of what to use
than what is in pg_class.reltuples.

Per report from Jeff Janes.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Patch by me; thanks to Etsuro Fujita for review

cfe89f5e6b Fix temporary tablespaces for shared filesets some more.
Commit ecd9e9f0b fixed the problem in the wrong place, causing unwanted
side-effects on the behavior of GetNextTempTableSpace().  Instead,
let's make SharedFileSetInit() responsible for subbing in the value
of MyDatabaseTableSpace when the default tablespace is called for.

The convention about what is in the tempTableSpaces[] array is
evidently insufficiently documented, so try to improve that.

It also looks like SharedFileSetInit() is doing the wrong thing in the
case where temp_tablespaces is empty.  It was hard-wiring use of the
pg_default tablespace, but it seems like using MyDatabaseTableSpace
is more consistent with what happens for other temp files.

Back-patch the reversion of PrepareTempTablespaces()'s behavior to
9.5, as ecd9e9f0b was.  The changes in SharedFileSetInit() go back
to v11 where that was introduced.  (Note there is net zero code change
before v11 from these two patch sets, so nothing to release-note.)

1d94c39654 Fix temporary tablespaces for shared filesets
A likely copy/paste error in 98e8b48053 from  back in 2004 would
cause temp tablespace to be reset to InvalidOid if temp_tablespaces
was set to the same value as the primary tablespace in the database.
This would cause shared filesets (such as for parallel hash joins)
to ignore them, putting the temporary files in the default tablespace
instead of the configured one. The bug is in the old code, but it
appears to have been exposed only once we had shared filesets.

8d459762b1 Change default of pg_stat_statements.track_planning to off.
Since v13 pg_stat_statements is allowed to track the planning time of
statements when track_planning option is enabled. Its default was on.

But this feature could cause more terrible spinlock contentions in
pg_stat_statements. As a result of this, Robins Tharakan reported that
v13 beta1 showed ~45% performance drop at high DB connection counts
(when compared with v12.3) during fully-cached SELECT-only test using
pgbench.

To avoid this performance regression by the default setting,
this commit changes default of pg_stat_statements.track_planning to off.

Back-patch to v13 where pg_stat_statements.track_planning was introduced.
