Robert Haas 9aef173163 Refactor code for partition bound searching
Remove partition_bound_cmp() and partition_bound_bsearch(), whose
void * argument could be, depending on the situation, of any of
three different types: PartitionBoundSpec *, PartitionRangeBound *,
Datum *.

Instead, introduce separate bound-searching functions for each
situation: partition_list_bsearch, partition_range_bsearch,
partition_range_datum_bsearch, and partition_hash_bsearch.  This
requires duplicating the code for binary search, but it makes the
code much more type safe, involves fewer branches at runtime, and
at least in my opinion, is much easier to understand.

Along the way, add an option to partition_range_datum_bsearch
allowing the number of keys to be specified, so that we can search
for partitions based on a prefix of the full list of partition
keys.  This is important for pending work to improve partition
pruning.

Amit Langote, per a suggestion from me.

Robert Haas 9222c0d9ed Add new function WaitForParallelWorkersToAttach.
Once this function has been called, we know that all workers have
started and attached to their error queues -- so if any of them
subsequently exit uncleanly, we'll be sure to throw an ERROR promptly.
Otherwise, users of the ParallelContext machinery must be careful not
to wait forever for a worker that has failed to start.  Parallel query
manages to work without needing this for reasons explained in new
comments added by this patch, but it's a useful primitive for other
parallel operations, such as the pending patch to make creating a
btree index run in parallel.

Robert Haas 3ccdc6f9a5 Fix list partition constraints for partition keys of array type.
The old code generated always generated a constraint of the form
col = ANY(ARRAY[val1, val2, ...]), but that's invalid when col is an
array type.  Instead, generate col = val when there's only one value,
col = val1 OR col = val2 OR ... when there are multiple values and
col is of array type, and the old form when there are multiple values
and col is not of an array type.

As a side benefit, this makes constraint exclusion able to prune
a list partition declared to accept a single Boolean value, which
didn't work before.

Peter Eisentraut f75a959155 Refactor client-side SSL certificate checking code
Separate the parts specific to the SSL library from the general logic.

The previous code structure was

open_client_SSL()
calls verify_peer_name_matches_certificate()
calls verify_peer_name_matches_certificate_name()
calls wildcard_certificate_match()

and was completely in fe-secure-openssl.c.  The new structure is

open_client_SSL() [openssl]
calls pq_verify_peer_name_matches_certificate() [generic]
calls pgtls_verify_peer_name_matches_certificate_guts() [openssl]
calls openssl_verify_peer_name_matches_certificate_name() [openssl]
calls pq_verify_peer_name_matches_certificate_name() [generic]
calls wildcard_certificate_match() [generic]

Move the generic functions into a new file fe-secure-common.c, so the
calls generally go fe-connect.c -> fe-secure.c -> fe-secure-${impl}.c ->
fe-secure-common.c, although there is a bit of back-and-forth between
the last two.

Andres Freund c12693d8f3 Introduce ExecQualAndReset() helper.
It's a common task to evaluate a qual and reset the corresponding
expression context. Currently that requires storing the result of the
qual eval, resetting the context, and then reacting on the result. As
that's awkward several places only reset the context next time through
a node. That's not great, so introduce a helper that evaluates and
resets.

It's a bit ugly that it currently uses MemoryContextReset() instead of
ResetExprContext(), but that seems easier than reordering all of
executor.h.

Tom Lane 97d4445a03 Save a few bytes by removing useless last argument to SearchCatCacheList.
There's never any value in giving a fully specified cache key to
SearchCatCacheList: you might as well call SearchCatCache instead,
since there could be only one match.  So the maximum useful number of
key arguments is one less than the supported number of key columns.
We might as well remove the useless extra argument and save some few
bytes per call site, as well as a cycle or so per call.

I believe the reason it was coded like this is that originally, callers
had to write out all the dummy arguments in each call, and so it seemed
less confusing if SearchCatCache and SearchCatCacheList took the same
number of key arguments.  But since commit e26c539e9, callers only write
their live arguments explicitly, making that a non-factor; and there's
surely been enough time for third-party modules to adapt to that coding
style.  So this is only an ABI break not an API break for callers.

Per discussion with Oliver Ford, this might also make it less confusing
how to use SearchCatCacheList correctly.

Andres Freund ab9f2c429d Prevent growth of simplehash tables when they're "too empty".
In cases where simplehash tables where filled with either a lot of
conflicting hash-values, or values that hash to consecutive
values (i.e. build "chains") the growth heuristics in
d4c62a6b62 could trigger rather
explosively.

To fix that, address some of the reasons (see previous commit) of why
the growth heuristics where needed, and only allow growth when the
table isn't too empty. While that means there's a few cases of bad
input that can be slower, that seems a lot better than running very
quickly out of memory.

Tom Lane 15be274601 Avoid misleading psql password prompt when username is multiply specified.
When a password is needed, cases such as
	psql -d "postgresql://alice@localhost/testdb" -U bob
would incorrectly prompt for "Password for user bob: ", when actually the
connection will be attempted with username alice.  The priority order of
which name to use isn't that important here, but the misleading prompt is.

When we are prompting for a password after initial connection failure,
we can fix this reliably by looking at PQuser(conn) to see how libpq
interpreted the connection arguments.  But when we're doing a forced
password prompt because of a -W switch, we can't use that solution.
Fortunately, because the main use of -W is for noninteractive situations,
it's less critical to produce a helpful prompt in such cases.  I made
the startup prompt for -W just say "Password: " all the time, rather
than expending extra code on trying to identify which username to use.
In the case of a \c command (after -W has been given), there's already
logic in do_connect that determines whether the "dbname" is a connstring
or URI, so we can avoid lobotomizing the prompt except in cases that
are actually dubious.  (We could do similarly in startup.c if anyone
complains, but for now it seems not worthwhile, especially since that
would still be only a partial solution.)

Per bug #15025 from Akos Vandra.  Although this is arguably a bug fix,
it doesn't seem worth back-patching.  The case where it matters seems
like a very corner-case usage, and someone might complain that we'd
changed the behavior of -W in a minor release.

Tom Lane 35a528062c Add stack-overflow guards in set-operation planning.
create_plan_recurse lacked any stack depth check.  This is not per
our normal coding rules, but I'd supposed it was safe because earlier
planner processing is more complex and presumably should eat more
stack.  But bug #15033 from Andrew Grossman shows this isn't true,
at least not for queries having the form of a many-thousand-way
INTERSECT stack.

Further testing showed that recurse_set_operations is also capable
of being crashed in this way, since it likewise will recurse to the
bottom of a parsetree before calling any support functions that
might themselves contain any stack checks.  However, its stack
consumption is only perhaps a third of create_plan_recurse's.

It's possible that this particular problem with create_plan_recurse can
only manifest in 9.6 and later, since before that we didn't build a Path
tree for set operations.  But having seen this example, I now have no
faith in the proposition that create_plan_recurse doesn't need a stack
check, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane 2e668c522e Avoid crash during EvalPlanQual recheck of an inner indexscan.
Commit 09529a70b changed nodeIndexscan.c and nodeIndexonlyscan.c to
postpone initialization of the indexscan proper until the first tuple
fetch.  It overlooked the question of mark/restore behavior, which means
that if some caller attempts to mark the scan before the first tuple fetch,
you get a null pointer dereference.

The only existing user of mark/restore is nodeMergejoin.c, which (somewhat
accidentally) will never attempt to set a mark before the first inner tuple
unless the inner child node is a Material node.  Hence the case can't arise
normally, so it seems sufficient to document the assumption at both ends.
However, during an EvalPlanQual recheck, ExecScanFetch doesn't call
IndexNext but just returns the jammed-in test tuple.  Therefore, if we're
doing a recheck in a plan tree with a mergejoin with inner indexscan,
it's possible to reach ExecIndexMarkPos with iss_ScanDesc still null,
as reported by Guo Xiang Tan in bug #15032.

Really, when there's a test tuple supplied during an EPQ recheck, touching
the index at all is the wrong thing: rather, the behavior of mark/restore
ought to amount to saving and restoring the es_epqScanDone flag.  We can
avoid finding a place to actually save the flag, for the moment, because
given the assumption that no caller will set a mark before fetching a
tuple, es_epqScanDone must always be set by the time we try to mark.
So the actual behavior change required is just to not reach the index
access if a test tuple is supplied.

The set of plan node types that need to consider this issue are those
that support EPQ test tuples (i.e., call ExecScan()) and also support
mark/restore; which is to say, IndexScan, IndexOnlyScan, and perhaps
CustomScan.  It's tempting to try to fix the problem in one place by
teaching ExecMarkPos() itself about EPQ; but ExecMarkPos supports some
plan types that aren't Scans, and also it seems risky to make assumptions
about what a CustomScan wants to do here.  Also, the most likely future
change here is to decide that we do need to support marks placed before
the first tuple, which would require additional work in IndexScan and
IndexOnlyScan in any case.  Hence, fix the EPQ issue in nodeIndexscan.c
and nodeIndexonlyscan.c, accepting the small amount of code duplicated
thereby, and leave it to CustomScan providers to fix this bug if they
have it.

Back-patch to v10 where commit 09529a70b came in.  In earlier branches,
the index_markpos() call is a waste of cycles when EPQ is active, but
no more than that, so it doesn't seem appropriate to back-patch further.

Tom Lane fb8697b31a Avoid unnecessary use of pg_strcasecmp for already-downcased identifiers.
We have a lot of code in which option names, which from the user's
viewpoint are logically keywords, are passed through the grammar as plain
identifiers, and then matched to string literals during command execution.
This approach avoids making words into lexer keywords unnecessarily.  Some
places matched these strings using plain strcmp, some using pg_strcasecmp.
But the latter should be unnecessary since identifiers would have been
downcased on their way through the parser.  Aside from any efficiency
concerns (probably not a big factor), the lack of consistency in this area
creates a hazard of subtle bugs due to different places coming to different
conclusions about whether two option names are the same or different.
Hence, standardize on using strcmp() to match any option names that are
expected to have been fed through the parser.

This does create a user-visible behavioral change, which is that while
formerly all of these would work:
	alter table foo set (fillfactor = 50);
	alter table foo set (FillFactor = 50);
	alter table foo set ("fillfactor" = 50);
	alter table foo set ("FillFactor" = 50);
now the last case will fail because that double-quoted identifier is
different from the others.  However, none of our documentation says that
you can use a quoted identifier in such contexts at all, and we should
discourage doing so since it would break if we ever decide to parse such
constructs as true lexer keywords rather than poor man's substitutes.
So this shouldn't create a significant compatibility issue for users.

Tom Lane 1368e92e16 Support --no-comments in pg_dump, pg_dumpall, pg_restore.
We have switches already to suppress other subsidiary object properties,
such as ACLs, security labels, ownership, and tablespaces, so just on
the grounds of symmetry we should allow suppressing comments as well.
Also, commit 0d4e6ed30 added a positive reason to have this feature,
i.e. to allow obtaining the old behavior of selective pg_restore should
anyone desire that.

Recent commits have removed the cases where pg_dump emitted comments on
built-in objects that the restoring user might not have privileges to
comment on, so the original primary motivation for this feature is gone,
but it still seems at least somewhat useful in its own right.

Tom Lane 0d4e6ed308 Clean up some aspects of pg_dump/pg_restore item-selection logic.
Ensure that CREATE DATABASE and related commands are issued when, and
only when, --create is specified.  Previously there were scenarios
where using selective-dump switches would prevent --create from having
any effect.  For example, it would fail to do anything in pg_restore
if the archive file had been made by a selective dump, because there
would be no TOC entry for the database.

Since we don't issue \connect either if we don't issue CREATE DATABASE,
this could result in unexpectedly restoring objects into the wrong
database.

Also fix pg_restore's selective restore logic so that when an object is
selected to be restored, we also restore its ACL, comment, and security
label if any.  Previously there was no way to get the latter properties
except through tedious mucking about with a -L file.  If, for some
reason, you don't want these properties, you can match the old behavior
by adding --no-acl etc.

While at it, try to make _tocEntryRequired() a little better organized
and better documented.

Alvaro Herrera 05fb5d6619 Ignore partitioned indexes where appropriate
get_relation_info() was too optimistic about opening indexes in
partitioned tables, which would raise errors when any queries were
planned on such tables.  Fix by ignoring any indexes of the partitioned
kind.

CLUSTER (and ALTER TABLE CLUSTER ON) had a similar problem.  Fix by
disallowing these commands in partitioned tables.

Tom Lane 5955d93419 Improve pg_dump's handling of "special" built-in objects.
We had some pretty ad-hoc handling of the public schema and the plpgsql
extension, which are both presumed to exist in template0 but might be
modified or deleted in the database being dumped.

Up to now, by default pg_dump would emit a CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS
command as well as a COMMENT command for plpgsql.  The usefulness of the
former is questionable, and the latter caused annoying errors in
non-superuser dump/restore scenarios.  Let's instead install a rule that
built-in extensions (identified by having low-numbered OIDs) are not to be
dumped.  We were doing it that way already in binary-upgrade mode, so this
just makes regular mode behave the same.  It remains true that if someone
has installed a non-default ACL on the plpgsql language, that will get
dumped thanks to the pg_init_privs mechanism.  This is more consistent with
the handling of built-in objects of other kinds.

Also, change the very ad-hoc mechanism that was used to avoid dumping
creation and comment commands for the public schema.  Instead of hardwiring
a test in _printTocEntry(), make use of the DUMP_COMPONENT_ infrastructure
to mark that schema up-front about what we want to do with it.  This has
the visible effect that the public schema won't be mentioned in the output
at all, except for updating its ACL if it has a non-default ACL.
Previously, while it was normally not mentioned, --clean mode would drop
and recreate it, again causing headaches for non-superuser usage.  This
change likewise makes the public schema less special and more like other
built-in objects.

If plpgsql, or the public schema, has been removed entirely in the source
DB, that situation won't be reproduced in the destination ... but that
was true before.

Peter Eisentraut 2a5ecb56d2 Update documentation to mention huge pages on other OSes
Previously, the docs implied that only Linux and Windows could use huge
pages.  That's not quite true: it's just that we only know how to
request them explicitly on those OSes.  Be more explicit about what
huge_pages really does and mention that some OSes may use huge pages
automatically.

Connection strings can have items with spaces in them, wrapped in

broke on the embedded quotes.  Use dollar quotes on the connstr to
protect against this.  This was hit during the development of the macOS
Secure Transport patch, but is independent of it.
