Before v10, we always searched ~/.pgpass using the host parameter,
and nothing else, to match to the "hostname" field of ~/.pgpass.
(However, null host or host matching DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR was replaced by
"localhost".) In v10, this got broken by commit 274bb2b38, repaired by
commit bdac9836d, and broken again by commit 7b02ba62e; in the code
actually shipped, we'd search with hostaddr if both that and host were
specified --- though oddly, *not* if only hostaddr were specified.
Since this is directly contrary to the documentation, and not
backwards-compatible, it's clearly a bug.
However, the change wasn't totally without justification, even though it
wasn't done quite right, because the pre-v10 behavior has arguably been
buggy since we added hostaddr. If hostaddr is specified and host isn't,
the pre-v10 code will search ~/.pgpass for "localhost", and ship that
password off to a server that most likely isn't local at all. That's
unhelpful at best, and could be a security breach at worst.
Therefore, rather than just revert to that old behavior, let's define
the behavior as "search with host if provided, else with hostaddr if
provided, else search for localhost". (As before, a host name matching
DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR is replaced by localhost.) This matches the
behavior of the actual connection code, so that we don't pick up an
inappropriate password; and it allows useful searches to happen when
only hostaddr is given.
While we're messing around here, ensure that empty elements within a
host or hostaddr list select the same behavior as a totally-empty
field would; for instance "host=a,,b" is equivalent to "host=a,/tmp,b"
if DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR is /tmp. Things worked that way in some cases
already, but not consistently so, which contributed to the confusion
about what key ~/.pgpass would get searched with.
Update documentation accordingly, and also clarify some nearby text.
Back-patch to v10 where the host/hostaddr list functionality was
introduced.

CopyFrom allows multi-inserts to be used for non-partitioned tables, but
this was disabled for partitioned tables. The reason for this appeared
to be that the tuple may not belong to the same partition as the
previous tuple did. Not allowing multi-inserts here greatly slowed down
imports into partitioned tables. These could take twice as long as a
copy to an equivalent non-partitioned table. It seems wise to do
something about this, so this change allows the multi-inserts by
flushing the so-far inserted tuples to the partition when the next tuple
does not belong to the same partition, or when the buffer fills. This
improves performance when the next tuple in the stream commonly belongs
to the same partition as the previous tuple.
In cases where the target partition changes on every tuple, using
multi-inserts slightly slows the performance. To get around this we
track the average size of the batches that have been inserted and
adaptively enable or disable multi-inserts based on the size of the
batch. Some testing was done and the regression only seems to exist
when the average size of the insert batch is close to 1, so let's just
enable multi-inserts when the average size is at least 1.3. More
performance testing might reveal a better number for, this, but since
the slowdown was only 1-2% it does not seem critical enough to spend too
much time calculating it. In any case it may depend on other factors
rather than just the size of the batch.
Allowing multi-inserts for partitions required a bit of work around the
per-tuple memory contexts as we must flush the tuples when the next
tuple does not belong the same partition. In which case there is no
good time to reset the per-tuple context, as we've already built the new
tuple by this time. In order to work around this we maintain two
per-tuple contexts and just switch between them every time the partition
changes and reset the old one. This does mean that the first of each
batch of tuples is not allocated in the same memory context as the
others, but that does not matter since we only reset the context once
the previous batch has been inserted.

Commits 742869946 et al turn out to be a couple bricks shy of a load.
We were dumping the stored values of GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables as they
appear in proconfig or setconfig catalog columns. However, although that
quoting rule looks a lot like SQL-identifier double quotes, there are two
critical differences: empty strings ("") are legal, and depending on which
variable you're considering, values longer than NAMEDATALEN might be valid
too. So the current technique fails altogether on empty-string list
entries (as reported by Steven Winfield in bug #15248) and it also risks
truncating file pathnames during dump/reload of GUC values that are lists
of pathnames.
To fix, split the stored value without any downcasing or truncation,
and then emit each element as a SQL string literal.
This is a tad annoying, because we now have three copies of the
comma-separated-string splitting logic in varlena.c as well as a fourth
one in dumputils.c. (Not to mention the randomly-different-from-those
splitting logic in libpq...) I looked at unifying these, but it would
be rather a mess unless we're willing to tweak the API definitions of
SplitIdentifierString, SplitDirectoriesString, or both. That might be
worth doing in future; but it seems pretty unsafe for a back-patched
bug fix, so for now accept the duplication.
Back-patch to all supported branches, as the previous fix was.

In commit 84940644de, bms_add_range was added with an API to fail with
an error if an empty range was specified. This seems arbitrary and
unhelpful, so turn that case into a no-op instead. Callers that require

themselves.

"make installcheck" and some related cases, when invoked from the toplevel

Some data types under adt/ have separate header files, but most simple
ones do not, and their public functions are defined in builtins.h. As
the patches improving geometric types will require making additional
functions public, this seems like a good opportunity to create a header
for floats types.
Commit 1acf757255 made _cmp functions public to solve NaN issues locally
for GiST indexes. This patch reworks it in favour of a more widely
applicable API. The API uses inline functions, as they are easier to
use compared to macros, and avoid double-evaluation hazards.

The primary goal of this patch is to eliminate duplicate code and share
code between different geometric data types more often, to prepare the
ground for additional patches. Until now the code reuse was limited,
probably because the simpler types (line and point) were implemented
after the more complex ones.
The changes are quite extensive and can be summarised as:
* Eliminate SQL-level function calls.
* Re-use more functions to implement others.
* Unify internal function names and signatures.
* Remove private functions from geo_decls.h.
* Replace should-not-happen checks with assertions.
* Add comments describe for various functions.
* Remove some unreachable code.
* Define delimiter symbols of line datatype like the other ones.
* Remove the GEODEBUG macro and printf() calls.
* Unify code style of a few oddly formatted lines.
While the goal was to cause minimal user-visible changes, it was not
possible to keep the original behavior in all cases - for example when
handling NaN values, or when reusing code makes the functions return
consistent results.

During parallel index scans, if the current page to be read is deleted, we
skip it and try to get the next page for a scan without releasing the buffer
lock on the current page. To get the next page, sometimes it needs to wait
for another process to complete its scan and advance it to the next page.
Now, it is quite possible that the master backend has errored out before
advancing the scan and issued a termination signal for all workers. The
workers failed to notice the termination request during wait because the
interrupts are held due to buffer lock on the previous page. This lead to
all workers being stuck.
The fix is to release the buffer lock on current page before trying to get
the next page. We are already doing same in backward scans, but missed
it for forward scans.

Since commit 6719b238e it's been possible for the values of plpgsql
record field variables to be exposed to the planner as Params.
(Before that, plpgsql never supplied values for such variables during
planning, so that the problematic code wasn't reached.) Other places
that touch potentially-type-mutable Params either cope gracefully or
do runtime-test-and-ereport checks that the type is what they expect.
But eval_const_expressions() just had an Assert, meaning that it either
failed the assertion or risked crashes due to using an incompatible
value.
In this case, rather than throwing an ereport immediately, we can just
not perform a const-substitution in case of a mismatch. This seems
important for the same reason that the Param fetch was speculative:
we might not actually reach this part of the expression at runtime.
Test case will follow in a separate commit.

strict_multi_assignment checks that commands allowing multi-assignment

too_many_rows checks that queries with an INTO clause return one row
exactly.
These checks are aimed at cases that are technically valid and allowed,
