The IANA time zone folk have deprecated use of a "posixrules" file in
the tz database. While for now it's our choice whether to keep
supplying one in our own builds, installations built with
--with-system-tzdata will soon be needing to cope with that file not
being present, at least on some platforms.
This causes a problem for the horology test, which expected the
nonstandard POSIX zone spec "CST7CDT" to apply pre-2007 US daylight
savings rules. That does happen if the posixrules file supplies such
information, but otherwise the test produces undesired results.
To fix, add an explicit transition date rule that matches 2005 practice.
(We could alternatively have switched the test to use some real time
zone, but it seems useful to have coverage of this type of zone spec.)
While at it, update a documentation example that also relied on
"CST7CDT"; use a real-world zone name instead. Also, document why
the zone names EST5EDT, CST6CDT, MST7MDT, PST8PDT aren't subject to
similar failures when "posixrules" is missing.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since the hazard is the same

It was possible for deduplication's single value strategy to mistakenly
believe that a very small duplicate tuple counts as one of the six large
tuples that it aims to leave behind after the page finally splits. This
could cause slightly suboptimal space utilization with very low
cardinality indexes, though only under fairly narrow conditions.
To fix, be particular about what kind of tuple counts as a
maxpostingsize-capped tuple. This avoids confusion in the event of a
small tuple that gets "wedged" between two large tuples, where all
tuples on the page are duplicates of the same value.

This was a danger only for --disable-spinlocks in combination with

While atomics.c was careful to signal that a separate semaphore ought
to be used when spinlock emulation is active, spin.c didn't actually

gotten lost during the development of the atomic operations support.

Backpatch: 9.5-
As s_lock_test, the already existing test for spinlocks, isn't run in
an automated fashion (and doesn't test a normal backend environment),
adding tests that are run as part of a normal regression run is a good
idea. Particularly in light of several recent and upcoming spinlock
related fixes.
Currently the new tests are run as part of the pre-existing
test_atomic_ops() test. That perhaps can be quibbled about, but for
now seems ok.
The only operations that s_lock_test tests but the new tests don't are
the detection of a stuck spinlock and S_LOCK_FREE (which is otherwise
unused, not implemented on all platforms, and will be removed).
This currently contains a test for more than INT_MAX spinlocks (only
run with --disable-spinlocks), to ensure the recent commit fixing a
bug with more than INT_MAX spinlock initializations is correct. That
test is somewhat slow, so we might want to disable it after a few
days.
It might be worth retiring s_lock_test after this. The added coverage
of a stuck spinlock probably isn't worth the added complexity?

We'd glossed over most of this complexity for years, but it's hard
to avoid writing it all down now, so that we can explain what happens
when there's no "posixrules" file in the IANA time zone database.
That was at best a tiny minority situation till now, but it's likely
to become quite common in the future, so we'd better explain it.
Nonetheless, we don't really encourage people to use POSIX zone specs;
picking a named zone is almost always what you really want, unless
perhaps you're stuck with an out-of-date zone database. Therefore,
let's shove all this detail into an appendix.

values across replication slots, preventing resource removal like
segments not recycled at checkpoint time. The original commit that

This commit adds a TAP test to check segment recycling with advancing

to check if the segment gets correctly recycled after a checkpoint.

This absorbs a leap-second-related bug fix in localtime.c, and
teaches zic to handle an expiration marker in the leapseconds file.
Neither are of any interest to us (for the foreseeable future
anyway), but we need to stay more or less in sync with upstream.
Also adjust some over-eager changes in the README from commit 957338418.
I have no intention of making changes that require C99 in this code,
until such time as all the live back branches require C99. Otherwise
back-patching will get too exciting.
For the same reason, absorb assorted whitespace and other cosmetic
changes from HEAD into the back branches; mostly this reflects use of
improved versions of pgindent.
All in all then, quite a boring update. But I figured I'd get it
done while I was looking at this code.
On platforms without support for 64bit atomic operations where we also
cannot rely on 64bit reads to have single copy atomicity, such atomics
are implemented using a spinlock based fallback. That means it's not
safe to even read such atomics from within a signal handler (since the
signal handler might run when the spinlock already is held).
To avoid this issue defer global barrier processing out of the signal
handler. Instead of checking local / shared barrier generation to
determine whether to set ProcSignalBarrierPending, introduce
PROCSIGNAL_BARRIER and always set ProcSignalBarrierPending when
receiving such a signal. Additionally avoid redundant work in
ProcessProcSignalBarrier if ProcSignalBarrierPending is unnecessarily.
Also do a small amount of other polishing.

Per POSIX this case should produce +0, but buildfarm member fossa
(with icc (ICC) 19.0.5.281 20190815) is reporting -0. icc has a
boatload of unsafe floating-point optimizations, with a corresponding
boatload of not-too-well-documented compiler switches, and it seems our
default use of "-mp1" isn't whacking it hard enough to keep it from
misoptimizing the stanza in dpow() that checks whether y is odd.
There's nothing wrong with that code (seeing that no other buildfarm
member has trouble with it), so I'm content to blame this on the
compiler. But without access to the compiler I'm not going to guess at
what switches might be needed to fix it. For now, tweak the test case
so it will accept either -0 or +0 as a correct answer.

hitting. And be consistent about declaring variables as "float8"
not "double", since the pre-existing variables in this function are

Buildfarm results for commit e532b1d57 reveal the error in my thinking
about the unexpected-EDOM case. I'd supposed this was no longer really
a live issue, but it seems the fix for glibc's bug #3866 is not all that
old, and we still have at least one buildfarm animal (lapwing) with the
bug. Hence, resurrect essentially the previous logic (but, I hope, less
opaquely presented), and explain what it is we're really doing here.
Also, blindly try to fix fossa's failure by tweaking the logic that
figures out whether y is an odd integer when x is -inf. This smells
a whole lot like a compiler bug, but I lack access to icc to try to
pin it down. Maybe doing division instead of multiplication will
dodge the issue.

Buildfarm results for commit decbe2bfb show that AIX and illumos
have non-POSIX-compliant pow() functions, as do ancient NetBSD
and HPUX releases. While it's dubious how much we should care
about the latter two platforms, the former two are probably enough
reason to put in manual handling of infinite-input cases. Hence,
do so, and clean up the post-pow() error handling to reflect its
now-more-limited scope. (Notably, while we no longer expect to
ever see EDOM from pow(), report it as a domain error if we do.
The former coding had the net effect of expensively converting the
error to ERANGE, which seems highly questionable: if pow() wanted
to report ERANGE, it would have done so.)

Previously, these functions tended to throw underflow errors for
negative-infinity exponents. The correct thing per POSIX is to
return 0, so let's do that instead. (Note that the SQL standard
is silent on such issues, as it lacks the concepts of either Inf
or NaN; so our practice is to follow POSIX whenever a corresponding
C-library function exists.)
Also, add a bunch of test cases verifying that exp() and power()
actually do follow POSIX for Inf and NaN inputs. While this patch
should guarantee that exp() passes the tests, power() will not unless
the platform's pow(3) is fully POSIX-compliant. I already know that
gaur fails some of the tests, and I am suspicious that the Windows
animals will too; the extent of compliance of other old platforms
remains to be seen. We might choose to drop failing test cases, or
to work harder at overriding pow(3) for these cases, but first let's
see just how good or bad the situation is.
