Tom Lane 3766b8b64e Translate ENOMEM to ERRCODE_OUT_OF_MEMORY in errcode_for_file_access().
Previously you got ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR, which seems inappropriate,
especially given that we're trying to avoid emitting that in reachable
cases.

Noah Misch 8fa4a1ac61 Sync PG_VERSION file in CREATE DATABASE.
An OS crash could leave PG_VERSION empty or missing.  The same symptom
appeared in a backup by block device snapshot, taken after the next
checkpoint and before the OS flushes the PG_VERSION blocks.  Device
snapshots are not a documented backup method, however.  Back-patch to
v15, where commit 9c08aea6a3 introduced
STRATEGY=WAL_LOG and made it the default.

Noah Misch d493bed28f Handle interleavings between CREATE DATABASE steps and base backup.
Restoring a base backup taken in the middle of CreateDirAndVersionFile()
or write_relmap_file() would lose the function's effects.  The symptom
was absence of the database directory, PG_VERSION file, or
pg_filenode.map.  If missing the directory, recovery would fail.  Either
missing file would not fail recovery but would render the new database
unusable.  Fix CreateDirAndVersionFile() with the transam/README "action
first and then write a WAL entry" strategy.  That has a side benefit of
moving filesystem mutations out of a critical section, reducing the ways
to PANIC.  Fix the write_relmap_file() call with a lock acquisition, so
it interacts with checkpoints like non-CREATE DATABASE calls do.

Tom Lane 12ec16d11c Apply band-aid fix for an oversight in reparameterize_path_by_child.
The path we wish to reparameterize is not a standalone object:
in particular, it implicitly references baserestrictinfo clauses
in the associated RelOptInfo, and if it's a SampleScan path then
there is also the TableSampleClause in the RTE to worry about.
Both of those could contain lateral references to the join partner
relation, which would need to be modified to refer to its child.
Since we aren't doing that, affected queries can give wrong answers,
or odd failures such as "variable not found in subplan target list",
or executor crashes.  But we can't just summarily modify those
expressions, because they are shared with other paths for the rel.
We'd break things if we modify them and then end up using some
non-partitioned-join path.

In HEAD, we plan to fix this by postponing reparameterization
until create_plan(), when we know that those other paths are
no longer of interest, and then adjusting those expressions along
with the ones in the path itself.  That seems like too big a change
for stable branches however.  In the back branches, let's just detect
whether any troublesome lateral references actually exist in those
expressions, and fail reparameterization if so.  This will result in
not performing a partitioned join in such cases.  Given the lack of
field complaints, nobody's likely to miss the optimization.

Report and patch by Richard Guo.  Apply to 12-16 only, since
the intended fix for HEAD looks quite different.  We're not quite
ready to push the HEAD fix, but with back-branch releases coming
up soon, it seems wise to get this stopgap fix in place there.

Michael Paquier 171d21f50c Fix stats_fetch_consistency with stats for fixed-numbered objects
This impacts the statistics retrieved in transactions for the following
views when updating the value of stats_fetch_consistency, leading to
behaviors contrary to what is documented since 605994651b as an update
of this parameter should discard all statistics snapshot data:
- pg_stat_archiver
- pg_stat_bgwriter
- pg_stat_checkpointer
- pg_stat_io
- pg_stat_slru
- pg_stat_wal

For example, updating stats_fetch_consistency from "snapshot" to "cache"
in a transaction did not re-fetch any fresh data, using data cached from
the time when "snapshot" was in use.

Michael Paquier 41fa4b31c1 Fix various issues with ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION
This commit addresses a set of issues when changing token type mappings
in a text search configuration when using duplicated token names:
- ADD MAPPING would fail on insertion because of a constraint failure
after inserting the same mapping.
- ALTER MAPPING with an "overridden" configuration failed with "tuple
already updated by self" when the token mappings are removed.
- DROP MAPPING failed with "tuple already updated by self", like
previously, but in a different code path.

The code is refactored so the token names (with their numbers) are
handled as a List with unique members rather than an array with numbers,
ensuring that no duplicates mess up with the catalog inserts, updates
and deletes.  The list is generated by getTokenTypes(), with the same
error handling as previously while duplicated tokens are discarded from
the list used to work on the catalogs.

Regression tests are expanded to cover much more ground for the cases
fixed by this commit, as there was no coverage for the code touched in
this commit.  A bit more is done regarding the fact that a token name
not supported by a configuration's parser should result in an error even
if IF EXISTS is used in a DROP MAPPING clause.  This is implied in the
code but there was no coverage for that, and it was very easy to miss.

These issues exist since at least their introduction in core with
140d4ebcb4, so backpatch all the way down.

Nathan Bossart 3726c1cb0e Move is_valid_ascii() to ascii.h.
This function requires simd.h, which is a rather large dependency
for a widely-used header file like pg_wchar.h.  Furthermore, there
is a report of a third-party tool that is struggling to use
pg_wchar.h due to its dependence on simd.h (presumably because
simd.h uses several intrinsics).  Moving the function to the much
less popular ascii.h resolves these issues for now.

This commit is back-patched for the benefit of the aforementioned
third-party tool.  The simd.h dependency was only added in v16,
but we've opted to back-patch to v15 so that is_valid_ascii() lives
in the same file for all versions where it exists.  This could
break existing third-party code that uses the function, but we
couldn't find any examples of such code.  It should be possible to
fix any code that this commit breaks by including ascii.h in the
file that uses is_valid_ascii().

Tom Lane 3f8ac13b19 Fix incompatibilities with libxml2 >= 2.12.0.
libxml2 changed the required signature of error handler callbacks
to make the passed xmlError struct "const".  This is causing build
failures on buildfarm member caiman, and no doubt will start showing
up in the field quite soon.  Add a version check to adjust the
declaration of xml_errorHandler() according to LIBXML_VERSION.

2.12.x also produces deprecation warnings for contrib/xml2/xpath.c's
assignment to xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue.  I see no good reason for
that to still be there, seeing that we disabled external DTDs (at a
lower level) years ago for security reasons.  Let's just remove it.

Back-patch to all supported branches, since they might all get built
with newer libxml2 once it gets a bit more popular.  (The back
branches produce another deprecation warning about xpath.c's use of
xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault().  We ought to consider whether to
back-patch all or part of commit 65c5864d7 to silence that.  It's
less urgent though, since it won't break the buildfarm.)

Amit Kapila b793a416bf Fix catalog lookup due to wrong snapshot for subtransactions during decoding.
In commit 272248a0c, we fixed the catalog lookup due to the wrong snapshot
for transactions and subtransactions during decoding. We failed to
consider the case where top-level xact is already marked as containing
catalog change but its subtransaction is not yet marked as containing
catalog change even though it contained such a change.

This can happen when during decoding, none of the WAL records from the
subtransaction was decoded and top-level xact contains a DDL.

We fix it by marking the transaction and all its subtransactions as
containing catalog changes if the top-level xact contains any catalog
change and it is present in the initial running xacts array.

This fix is required only for 14 and 15 because in prior branches we
already always mark the transaction and all its subtransactions as
containing catalog changes in the same case. In 16 and above, we preserve
the list of transaction IDs and sub-transaction IDs, that have modified
catalogs and are running during snapshot serialization, to the serialized
snapshot (see commit 7f13ac8123).

Michael Paquier 8b34cff338 Add more LOG messages when starting and ending recovery from a backup
Three LOG messages are added in the recovery code paths, providing
information that can be useful to track corruption issues depending on
the state of the cluster, telling that:
- Recovery has started from a backup_label.
- Recovery is restarting from a backup start LSN, without a
backup_label.
- Recovery has completed from a backup.

This was originally applied on HEAD as of 1d35f705e1, and there is
consensus that this can be useful for older versions.  This applies
cleanly down to 15, so do it down to this version for now (older
versions have heavily refactored the WAL recovery paths, making the
change less straight-forward to do).

Tom Lane 86b6243a8e Detect Julian-date overflow in timestamp[tz]_pl_interval.
We perform addition of the days field of an interval via
arithmetic on the Julian-date representation of the timestamp's date.
This step is subject to int32 overflow, and we also should not let
the Julian date become very negative, for fear of weird results from
j2date.  (In the timestamptz case, allow a Julian date of -1 to pass,
since it might convert back to zero after timezone rotation.)

The additions of the months and microseconds fields could also
overflow, of course.  However, I believe we need no additional
checks there; the existing range checks should catch such cases.
The difficulty here is that j2date's magic modular arithmetic could
produce something that looks like it's in-range.

Tom Lane de2d393a8a Fix plpgsql to allow new-style SQL CREATE FUNCTION as a SQL command.
plpgsql fails on new-style CREATE FUNCTION/PROCEDURE commands within
a routine or DO block, because make_execsql_stmt believes that a
semicolon token always terminates a SQL command.  Now, that's actually
been wrong since the day it was written, because CREATE RULE has long
allowed multiple rule actions separated by semicolons.  But there are
few enough people using multi-action rules that there was never an
attempt to fix it.  New-style SQL functions, though, are popular.

psql has this same problem of "does this semicolon really terminate
the command?".  It deals with CREATE RULE by counting parenthesis
nesting depth: a semicolon within parens doesn't end a command.
Commits e717a9a18 and 029c5ac03 created a similar heuristic to count
matching BEGIN/END pairs (but only within CREATEs, so as not to be
fooled by plain BEGIN).  That's survived several releases now without
trouble reports, so let's just absorb those heuristics into plpgsql.

Andres Freund f374fb4aab lwlock: Fix quadratic behavior with very long wait lists
Until now LWLockDequeueSelf() sequentially searched the list of waiters to see
if the current proc is still is on the list of waiters, or has already been
removed. In extreme workloads, where the wait lists are very long, this leads
to a quadratic behavior. #backends iterating over a list #backends
long. Additionally, the likelihood of needing to call LWLockDequeueSelf() in
the first place also increases with the increased length of the wait queue, as
it becomes more likely that a lock is released while waiting for the wait list
lock, which is held for longer during lock release.

Due to the exponential back-off in perform_spin_delay() this is surprisingly
hard to detect. We should make that easier, e.g. by adding a wait event around
the pg_usleep() - but that's a separate patch.

The fix is simple - track whether a proc is currently waiting in the wait list
or already removed but waiting to be woken up in PGPROC->lwWaiting.

In some workloads with a lot of clients contending for a small number of
lwlocks (e.g. WALWriteLock), the fix can substantially increase throughput.

This has been originally fixed for 16~ with a4adc31f69 without a
backpatch, and we have heard complaints from users impacted by this
quadratic behavior in older versions as well.

Don't test already-referenced pointer for nullness

618c16707a (in Postgres 15), pqPrepareAsyncResult() doesn't ever

harm done.

However, in branch 14, pqPrepareAsyncResult() can indeed return NULL if

preexisting check is not redundant but necessary.

Tom Lane 1a4e546173 Prevent access to an unpinned buffer in BEFORE ROW UPDATE triggers.
When ExecBRUpdateTriggers switches to a new target tuple as a result

However, immediately after that we materialize oldslot, causing it to
drop its buffer pin, whereupon the by-ref pointers are unsafe to use.
This is a live bug only when the new target tuple is in a different
page than the original target tuple, since we do still hold a pin on
the original one.  (Before 86dc90056, there was no bug because the
EPQ plantree would hold a pin on the new target tuple; but now that's
not assured.)  To fix, forcibly materialize the new tuple before we
materialize oldslot.  This costs nothing since we would have done that
shortly anyway.

The real-world impact of this is probably minimal.  A visible failure
could occur if the new target tuple's buffer were recycled for some
other page in the short interval before we materialize newslot within
the trigger-calling loop; but that's quite unlikely given that we'd
just touched that page.  There's a larger hazard that some other
process could prune and repack that page within the window.  We have
lock on the new target tuple, but that wouldn't prevent it being moved
on the page.

Tom Lane 2a46a0df47 Cope with catcache entries becoming stale during detoasting.
We've long had a policy that any toasted fields in a catalog tuple
should be pulled in-line before entering the tuple in a catalog cache.
However, that requires access to the catalog's toast table, and we'll
typically do AcceptInvalidationMessages while opening the toast table.
So it's possible that the catalog tuple is outdated by the time we
finish detoasting it.  Since no cache entry exists yet, we can't
mark the entry stale during AcceptInvalidationMessages, and instead
we'll press forward and build an apparently-valid cache entry.  The
upshot is that we have a race condition whereby an out-of-date entry
could be made in a backend's catalog cache, and persist there
indefinitely causing indeterminate misbehavior.

To fix, use the existing systable_recheck_tuple code to recheck
whether the catalog tuple is still up-to-date after we finish
detoasting it.  If not, loop around and restart the process of
searching the catalog and constructing cache entries from the top.
The case is rare enough that this shouldn't create any meaningful
performance penalty, even in the SearchCatCacheList case where
we need to tear down and reconstruct the whole list.

Indeed, the case is so rare that AFAICT it doesn't occur during
our regression tests, and there doesn't seem to be any easy way
to build a test that would exercise it reliably.  To allow
testing of the retry code paths, add logic (in USE_ASSERT_CHECKING
builds only) that randomly pretends that the recheck failed about
one time out of a thousand.  This is enough to ensure that we'll
pass through the retry paths during most regression test runs.

By adding an extra level of looping, this commit creates a need
to reindent most of SearchCatCacheMiss and SearchCatCacheList.
I'll do that separately, to allow putting those changes in
.git-blame-ignore-revs.

Patch by me; thanks to Alexander Lakhin for having built a test
case to prove the bug is real, and to Xiaoran Wang for review.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

On Windows, cmd.exe is used to launch the postmaster process to ease its

Tom Lane a0b4fda442 Allow subquery pullup to wrap a PlaceHolderVar in another one.
The code for wrapping subquery output expressions in PlaceHolderVars
believed that if the expression already was a PlaceHolderVar, it was
never necessary to wrap that in another one.  That's wrong if the
expression is underneath an outer join and involves a lateral
reference to outside that scope: failing to add an additional PHV
risks evaluating the expression at the wrong place and hence not
forcing it to null when the outer join should do so.  This is an
oversight in commit 9e7e29c75, which added logic to forcibly wrap
lateral-reference Vars in PlaceHolderVars, but didn't see that the
adjacent case for PlaceHolderVars needed the same treatment.

The test case we have for this doesn't fail before 4be058fe9, but now
that I see the problem I wonder if it is possible to demonstrate
related errors before that.  That's moot though, since all such
branches are out of support.

Tom Lane c3f52fd5d7 Handle WindowClause.runCondition in tree walker/mutator functions.
Commit 9d9c02ccd, which added the notion of a "run condition" for
window functions, neglected to teach nodeFuncs.c to process the new
field.  Remarkably, that doesn't seem to have had any ill effects
before we invented Var.varnullingrels, but now it can cause visible
failures in join-removal scenarios.

I have no faith that there's not reachable problems in v15 too,
so back-patch the code change to v15 where 9d9c02ccd came in.
The test case seems irrelevant to v15, though.

The note regarding character encoding form in "The Information Schema"
said that LATIN1 character repertoires only use one encoding form
LATIN1. This is not correct because LATIN1 has another encoding form
ISO-2022-JP-2. To fix this, replace LATIN1 with LATIN2, which is not
supported by ISO-2022-JP-2, thus it can be said that LATIN2 only uses
one encoding form.

Tom Lane a0d016393b Avoid masking EOF (no-password-supplied) conditions in auth.c.
CheckPWChallengeAuth() would return STATUS_ERROR if the user does not
exist or has no password assigned, even if the client disconnected
without responding to the password challenge (as libpq often will,
for example).  We should return STATUS_EOF in that case, and the
lower-level functions do, but this code level got it wrong since the
refactoring done in 7ac955b34.  This breaks the intent of not logging
anything for EOF cases (cf. comments in auth_failed()) and might
also confuse users of ClientAuthentication_hook.

If the underlying table isn't being dumped, it's useless to dump

We have always applied similar policies to, say, indexes.

(When and if we get cross-table stats objects, it might be profitable
to think a little harder about what to do with them.  But for now
there seems no point in considering a stats object as anything but
an appendage of its table.)
