Because this strategy logs changes on a block-by-block basis, it
avoids the need to checkpoint before and after the operation.
However, because it logs each changed block individually, it might
generate a lot of extra write-ahead logging if the template database
is large. Therefore, the older strategy remains available via a new
STRATEGY parameter to CREATE DATABASE, and a corresponding --strategy
option to createdb.
Somewhat controversially, this patch assembles the list of relations
to be copied to the new database by reading the pg_class relation of
the template database. Cross-database access like this isn't normally
possible, but it can be made to work here because there can't be any
connections to the database being copied, nor can it contain any
in-doubt transactions. Even so, we have to use lower-level interfaces
than normal, since the table scan and relcache interfaces will not
work for a database to which we're not connected. The advantage of
this approach is that we do not need to rely on the filesystem to
determine what ought to be copied, but instead on PostgreSQL's own
knowledge of the database structure. This avoids, for example,
copying stray files that happen to be located in the source database
directory.

This commit adds support for decoding of sequences to the built-in
replication (the infrastructure was added by commit 0da92dc530).
The syntax and behavior mostly mimics handling of tables, i.e. a
publication may be defined as FOR ALL SEQUENCES (replicating all
sequences in a database), FOR ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA (replicating
all sequences in a particular schema) or individual sequences.
To publish sequence modifications, the publication has to include
'sequence' action. The protocol is extended with a new message,
describing sequence increments.
A new system view pg_publication_sequences lists all the sequences
added to a publication, both directly and indirectly. Various psql
commands (\d and \dRp) are improved to also display publications
including a given sequence, or sequences included in a publication.

For GENERATED columns, we record all dependencies of the generation
expression as AUTO dependencies of the column itself. This means
that the generated column is silently dropped if any dependency
is removed, even if CASCADE wasn't specified. This is at least
a POLA violation, but I think it's actually based on a misreading
of the standard. The standard does say that you can't drop a
dependent GENERATED column in RESTRICT mode; but that's buried down
in a subparagraph, on a different page from some pseudocode that
makes it look like an AUTO drop is being suggested.
Change this to be more like the way that we handle regular default
expressions, ie record the dependencies as NORMAL dependencies of
the pg_attrdef entry. Also, make the pg_attrdef entry's dependency
on the column itself be INTERNAL not AUTO. That has two effects:
* the column will go away, not just lose its default, if any
dependency of the expression is dropped with CASCADE. So we
don't need any special mechanism to make that happen.
* it provides an additional cross-check preventing someone from
dropping the default expression without dropping the column.

(which also requires a change in one information_schema view).

This is a pure refactoring commit: there isn't (I hope) any functional
change.
StoreAttrDefault and RemoveAttrDefault[ById] are moved from heap.c,
reducing the size of that overly-large file by about 300 lines.
I took the opportunity to trim unused #includes from heap.c, too.
Two new functions for translating between a pg_attrdef OID and the
relid/attnum of the owning column are created by extracting ad-hoc
code from objectaddress.c. This already removes one copy of said
code, and a follow-on bug fix will create more callers.
The only other function directly manipulating pg_attrdef is
AttrDefaultFetch. I judged it was better to leave that in relcache.c,
since it shares special concerns about recursion and error handling
with the rest of that module.

DROP INDEX needs to lock the index's table before the index itself,
else it will deadlock against ordinary queries that acquire the
relation locks in that order. This is correctly mechanized for
plain indexes by RangeVarCallbackForDropRelation; but in the case of
a partitioned index, we neglected to lock the child tables in advance
of locking the child indexes. We can fix that by traversing the
inheritance tree and acquiring the needed locks in RemoveRelations,
after we have acquired our locks on the parent partitioned table and
index.
While at it, do some refactoring to eliminate confusion between
the actual and expected relkind in RangeVarCallbackForDropRelation.
We can save a couple of syscache lookups too, by having that function
pass back info that RemoveRelations will need.

There are three parallel ways to call parse/analyze: with fixed
parameters, with variable parameters, and by supplying your own parser
callback. Some of the involved functions were confusingly named and
made this API structure more confusing. This patch renames some
functions to make this clearer:
parse_analyze() -> parse_analyze_fixedparams()
pg_analyze_and_rewrite() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_fixedparams()
(Otherwise one might think this variant doesn't accept parameters, but
in fact all three ways accept parameters.)
pg_analyze_and_rewrite_params() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_withcb()
(Before, and also when considering pg_analyze_and_rewrite(), one might
think this is the only way to pass parameters. Moreover, the parser
callback doesn't necessarily need to parse only parameters, it's just
one of the things it could do.)
parse_fixed_parameters() -> setup_parse_fixed_parameters()
parse_variable_parameters() -> setup_parse_variable_parameters()
(These functions don't actually do any parsing, they just set up
callbacks to use during parsing later.)
This patch also adds some const decorations to the fixed-parameters
API, so the distinction from the variable-parameters API is more
clear.

While user-defined triggers defined on a partitioned table have
a catalog definition for both it and its partitions, internal
triggers used by foreign keys defined on partitioned tables only
have a catalog definition for its partitions. This commit fixes
that so that partitioned tables get the foreign key triggers too,
just like user-defined triggers. Moreover, like user-defined
triggers, partitions' internal triggers will now also have their
tgparentid set appropriately. This is to allow subsequent commit(s)
to make the foreign key related events to be fired in some cases
using the parent table triggers instead of those of partitions'.
This also changes what tgisinternal means in some cases. Currently,
it means either that the trigger is an internal implementation object
of a foreign key constraint, or a "child" trigger on a partition
cloned from the trigger on the parent. This commit changes it to
only mean the former to avoid confusion. As for the latter, it can
be told by tgparentid being nonzero, which is now true both for user-
defined and foreign key's internal triggers.

One code path related to this flavor of ALTER TABLE was checking that
the relation to detach has to be a normal table or a partitioned table,
which would fail if using the command with a different relation kind.
Views, sequences and materialized views cannot be part of a partition
tree, so these would cause the command to fail anyway, but the assertion
was triggered. Foreign tables can be part of a partition tree, and
again the assertion would have failed. The simplest solution is just to
remove this assertion, so as we get the same failure as the
non-concurrent code path.

The API spec for lookup_rowtype_tupdesc previously said you could use
either ReleaseTupleDesc or DecrTupleDescRefCount. However, the latter
choice means the caller must be certain that the returned tupdesc is
refcounted. I don't recall right now whether that was always true
when this spec was written, but it's certainly not always true since
we introduced shared record typcaches for parallel workers. That means
that callers using DecrTupleDescRefCount are dependent on typcache
behavior details that they probably shouldn't be. Hence, change the API
spec to say that you must call ReleaseTupleDesc, and fix the half-dozen
callers that weren't.
AFAICT this is just future-proofing, there's no live bug here.

attacl was added, but more fields have been added since, and these

the purpose is clearer and we don't have to keep updating them.
Replica identities that depend directly on an index rely on a set of
properties, one of them being that all the columns defined in this index
have to be marked as NOT NULL. There was a hole in the logic with ALTER
TABLE DROP NOT NULL, where it was possible to remove the NOT NULL
property of a column part of an index used as replica identity, so block
it to avoid problems with logical decoding down the road.
The same check was already done columns part of a primary key, so the

The grammar of this command run on indexes with column names has always
been authorized by the parser, and it has never been documented.
Since 911e702, it is possible to define opclass parameters as of CREATE
INDEX, which actually broke the old case of ALTER INDEX/TABLE where
relation-level parameters n_distinct and n_distinct_inherited could be
defined for an index (see 76a47c0 and its thread where this point has
been touched, still remained unused). Attempting to do that in v13~
would cause the index to become unusable, as there is a new dedicated
code path to load opclass parameters instead of the relation-level ones
previously available. Note that it is possible to fix things with a
manual catalog update to bring the relation back online.
This commit disables this command for now as the use of column names for
indexes does not make sense anyway, particularly when it comes to index
expressions where names are automatically computed. One way to properly
support this case properly in the future would be to use column numbers
when it comes to indexes, in the same way as ALTER INDEX .. ALTER COLUMN
.. SET STATISTICS.
Partitioned indexes were already blocked, but not indexes. Some tests
are added for both cases.
There was some code in ANALYZE to enforce n_distinct to be used for an
index expression if the parameter was defined, but just remove it for
now until/if there is support for this (note that index-level parameters
never had support in pg_dump either, previously), so this was just dead
code.

ALTER TABLE .. SET {LOGGED,UNLOGGED,ACCESS METHOD} would never do a
table-level object access hook, which was inconsistent with SET
TABLESPACE. Note that contrary to SET TABLESPACE, the no-op case is
left off for those commands as this requires tracking if commands have
been called, but they may not execute a physical rewrite. Another thing
worth noting is that the physical file swap at the end of a rewrite
does a couple of access calls for internal objects created for the swap
operation (internal objects are for example skipped by the tests of
sepgsql), but this does not trigger the hook for the table on which the
operation is done.
f41872d, that added support for SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED in ALTER TABLE,

The logic used to support a change of access method for a table is
similar to changes for tablespace or relation persistence, requiring a
table rewrite with an exclusive lock of the relation changed. Table
rewrites done in ALTER TABLE already go through the table AM layer when

The idea behind this patch is to design out bugs like the one fixed
by commit 9d523119f. Previously, once one did RelationOpenSmgr(rel),
it was considered okay to access rel->rd_smgr directly for some
not-very-clear interval. But since that pointer will be cleared by
relcache flushes, we had bugs arising from overreliance on a previous
RelationOpenSmgr call still being effective.
Now, very little code except that in rel.h and relcache.c should ever
touch the rd_smgr field directly. The normal coding rule is to use
RelationGetSmgr(rel) and not expect the result to be valid for longer
than one smgr function call. There are a couple of places where using
the function every single time seemed like overkill, but they are now
annotated with large warning comments.

Most error messages about a relkind that was not supported or
appropriate for the command was of the pattern
"relation \"%s\" is not a table, foreign table, or materialized view"
This style can become verbose and tedious to maintain. Moreover, it's
not very helpful: If I'm trying to create a comment on a TOAST table,
which is not supported, then the information that I could have created
a comment on a materialized view is pointless.
Instead, write the primary error message shorter and saying more
directly that what was attempted is not possible. Then, in the detail
message, explain that the operation is not supported for the relkind
the object was. To simplify that, add a new function
errdetail_relkind_not_supported() that does this.
In passing, make use of RELKIND_HAS_STORAGE() where appropriate,
instead of listing out the relkinds individually.

In the "simple Query" code path, it's fine for parse analysis or
execution of a utility statement to scribble on the statement's node
tree, since that'll just be thrown away afterwards. However it's
not fine if the node tree is in the plan cache, as then it'd be
corrupted for subsequent executions. Up to now we've dealt with
that by having individual utility-statement functions apply
copyObject() if they were going to modify the tree. But that's
prone to errors of omission. Bug #17053 from Charles Samborski
shows that CREATE/ALTER DOMAIN didn't get this memo, and can
crash if executed repeatedly from plan cache.
In the back branches, we'll just apply a narrow band-aid for that,
but in HEAD it seems prudent to have a more principled fix that
will close off the possibility of other similar bugs in future.
Hence, let's hoist the responsibility for doing copyObject up into
ProcessUtility from its children, thus ensuring that it happens for
all utility statement types.
Also, modify ProcessUtility's API so that its callers can tell it
whether a copy step is necessary. It turns out that in all cases,
the immediate caller knows whether the node tree is transient, so
this doesn't involve a huge amount of code thrashing. In this way,
while we lose a little bit in the execute-from-cache code path due
to sometimes copying node trees that wouldn't be mutated anyway,
we gain something in the simple-Query code path by not copying
throwaway node trees. Statements that are complex enough to be
expensive to copy are almost certainly ones that would have to be
copied anyway, so the loss in the cache code path shouldn't be much.
(Note that this whole problem applies only to utility statements.
Optimizable statements don't have the issue because we long ago made
the executor treat Plan trees as read-only. Perhaps someday we will
make utility statement execution act likewise, but I'm not holding
my breath.)

compress, use the current setting of default_toast_compression".
This allows '\0' to be a suitable default choice regardless of
datatype, greatly simplifying code paths that initialize tupledescs
and the like. It seems like a more user-friendly approach as well,
because now the default compression choice doesn't migrate into table
definitions, meaning that changing default_toast_compression is
usually sufficient to flip an installation's behavior; one needn't
tediously issue per-column ALTER SET COMPRESSION commands.
Along the way, fix a few minor bugs and documentation issues
with the per-column-compression feature. Adopt more robust
APIs for SetIndexStorageProperties and GetAttributeCompression.
Bump catversion because typical contents of attcompression will now
be different. We could get away without doing that, but it seems
better to ensure v14 installations all agree on this. (We already
forced initdb for beta2, anyway.)

Now that attcompression is just a char, there's a lot of wasted
padding space after it. Move it into the group of char-wide
columns to save a net of 4 bytes per pg_attribute entry. While
we're at it, swap the order of attstorage and attalign to make for
a more logical grouping of these columns.
Also re-order actions in related code to match the new field ordering.
This patch also fixes one outright bug: equalTupleDescs() failed to
compare attcompression. That could, for example, cause relcache
reload to fail to adopt a new value following a change.

We consider this supported (though I've got my doubts that it's a
good idea, because tableoid is not immutable). However, several
code paths failed to fill the field in soon enough, causing such
a GENERATED expression to see zero or the wrong value. This
occurred when ALTER TABLE adds a new GENERATED column to a table
with existing rows, and during regular INSERT or UPDATE on a
foreign table with GENERATED columns.
Noted during investigation of a report from Vitaly Ustinov.
Back-patch to v12 where GENERATED came in.

Also "make reformat-dat-files".
The only change worthy of note is that pgindent messed up the formatting
of launcher.c's struct LogicalRepWorkerId, which led me to notice that
that struct wasn't used at all anymore, so I just took it out.
Design problems were discovered in the handling of composite types and
record types that would cause some relevant versions not to be recorded.
Misgivings were also expressed about the use of the pg_depend catalog
for this purpose. We're out of time for this release so we'll revert
and try again.

When ALTER TABLE .. ALTER CONSTRAINT changes deferrability properties
changed in a partitioned table, we failed to propagate those changes
correctly to partitions and to triggers. Repair by adding a recursion
mechanism to affect all derived constraints and all derived triggers.
(In particular, recurse to partitions even if their respective parents
are already in the desired state: it is possible for the partitions to
have been altered individually.) Because foreign keys involve tables in
two sides, we cannot use the standard ALTER TABLE recursion mechanism,
so we invent our own by following pg_constraint.conparentid down.
When ALTER TABLE .. ALTER CONSTRAINT is invoked on the derived
pg_constraint object that's automaticaly created in a partition as a
result of a constraint added to its parent, raise an error instead of
pretending to work and then failing to modify all the affected triggers.
Before this commit such a command would be allowed but failed to affect
all triggers, so it would silently misbehave. (Restoring dumps of
existing databases is not affected, because pg_dump does not produce
anything for such a derived constraint anyway.)
Add some tests for the case.
Backpatch to 11, where foreign key support was added to partitioned
tables by commit 3de241dba8. (A related change is commit f56f8f8da6
in pg12 which added support for FKs *referencing* partitioned tables;
this is what forces us to use an ad-hoc recursion mechanism for this.)
Diagnosed by Tom Lane from bug report from Ron L Johnson. As of this
writing, no reviews were offered.

The OID of the constraint is used instead of the OID of the trigger --
an easy mistake to make. Apparently the object-alter hooks are not very
well tested :-(

When running ALTER TABLE t2 INHERIT t1, we must check that columns in
t2 that correspond to a generated column in t1 are also generated and
have the same generation expression. Otherwise, this would allow
creating setups that a normal CREATE TABLE sequence would not allow.

Makes partition descriptor acquisition faster during the transient
period in which a partition is in the process of being detached.
This also adds the restriction that only one partition can be in
pending-detach state for a partitioned table.
While at it, return find_inheritance_children() API to what it was
before 71f4c8c6f7, and create a separate
find_inheritance_children_extended() that returns detailed info about
detached partitions.
(This incidentally fixes a bug in 8aba932251 whereby a memory context
holding a transient partdesc is reparented to a NULL PortalContext,
leading to permanent leak of that memory. The fix is to no longer rely
on reparenting contexts to PortalContext. Reported by Amit Langote.)

Commit 8ff1c94649 allowed TRUNCATE command to truncate foreign tables.
Previously the information about "ONLY" options specified in TRUNCATE
command were passed to the foreign data wrapper. Then postgres_fdw
constructed the TRUNCATE command to issue the remote server and
included "ONLY" options in it based on the passed information.
On the other hand, "ONLY" options specified in SELECT, UPDATE or DELETE
have no effect when accessing or modifying the remote table, i.e.,
are not passed to the foreign data wrapper. So it's inconsistent to
make only TRUNCATE command pass the "ONLY" options to the foreign data
wrapper. Therefore this commit changes the TRUNCATE command so that
it doesn't pass the "ONLY" options to the foreign data wrapper,
for the consistency with other statements. Also this commit changes
postgres_fdw so that it always doesn't include "ONLY" options in
the TRUNCATE command that it constructs.

During queries coming from ri_triggers.c, we need to omit partitions
that are marked pending detach -- otherwise, the RI query is tricked
into allowing a row into the referencing table whose corresponding row
is in the detached partition. Which is bogus: once the detach operation
completes, the row becomes an orphan.
However, the code was not doing that in repeatable-read transactions,
because relcache kept a copy of the partition descriptor that included
the partition, and used it in the RI query. This commit changes the
partdesc cache code to only keep descriptors that aren't dependent on
a snapshot (namely: those where no detached partition exist, and those
where detached partitions are included). When a partdesc-without-
detached-partitions is requested, we create one afresh each time; also,
those partdescs are stored in PortalContext instead of
CacheMemoryContext.
find_inheritance_children gets a new output *detached_exist boolean,
which indicates whether any partition marked pending-detach is found.
Its "include_detached" input flag is changed to "omit_detached", because
that name captures desired the semantics more naturally.
CreatePartitionDirectory() and RelationGetPartitionDesc() arguments are
identically renamed.
This was noticed because a buildfarm member that runs with relcache
clobbering, which would not keep the improperly cached partdesc, broke
one test, which led us to realize that the expected output of that test
was bogus. This commit also corrects that expected output.
