The comments here stated that this was just in case we ever had an
ALTER OPERATOR command that could remap an operator to a different
function. But those comments have been here for a long time, and no
such command has come about. In the absence of such a feature,
forcing the pg_proc OID to be looked up again each time we reread a
stored rule or similar is just a waste of cycles. Moreover, parallel
query needs a way to reread the exact same node tree that was written
out, not one that has been slightly stomped on. So just get rid of
this for now.
Per discussion with Tom Lane.
Previously pg_controldata didn't report newestCommitTs and this was
an oversight in commit 73c986a.
Also this patch changes pg_resetxlog so that it uses the same sentences
as pg_controldata does, regarding oldestCommitTs and newestCommitTs,
for the sake of consistency.
Back-patch to 9.5 where track_commit_timestamp was added.

The old minimum values are rather large, making it time consuming to
test related behaviour. Additionally the current limits, especially for
multixacts, can be problematic in space-constrained systems. 10000000
multixacts can contain a lot of members.
Since there's no good reason for the current limits, lower them a good
bit. Setting them to 0 would be a bad idea, triggering endless vacuums,
so still retain a limit.
While at it fix autovacuum_multixact_freeze_max_age to refer to
multixact.c instead of varsup.c.

Backpatch: back to 9.0 (in parts)
Previously, ANALYZE simply ignored columns of datatypes that have neither
a btree nor hash opclass (which means they have no recognized equality
operator). Without a notion of equality, we can't identify most-common
values nor estimate the number of distinct values. But we can still
count nulls and compute the average physical column width, and those
stats might be of value. Moreover there are some tools out there that
don't work so well if rows are missing from pg_statistic. So let's
add suitable logic for this case.
While this is arguably a bug fix, it also has the potential to change
query plans, and the gain seems not worth taking a risk of that in
stable branches. So back-patch into 9.5 but not further.
Oleksandr Shulgin, rewritten a bit by me.
For parallel query, we need to be able to pass a Plan to a worker, so
that it knows what it's supposed to do. We could invent our own way
of serializing plans for that purpose, but piggybacking on the
existing node infrastructure seems like a much better idea.
Initially, we'll probably only support a limited number of nodes
within parallel workers, but this commit adds support for everything
in plannodes.h except CustomScan, because doing it all at once seems
easier than doing it piecemeal, and it makes testing this code easier,
too. CustomScan is excluded because making that work requires a
larger rework of that facility.

This logic was missing from ExplainPreScanNode, from which I derived
planstate_tree_walker. But it shouldn't be missing, especially not
from a generic walker function, so add it.
KaiGai Kohei
A bunch of tests missed specifying that empty transactions shouldn't be
displayed. That causes problems when e.g. autovacuum runs in an
unfortunate moment. The tests in question only run for a very short
time, making this quite unlikely.

Backpatch: 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced
mul_var() postpones propagating carries until it risks overflow in its
internal digit array. However, the logic failed to account for the
possibility of overflow in the carry propagation step, allowing wrong
results to be generated in corner cases. We must slightly reduce the
when-to-propagate-carries threshold to avoid that.
Discovered and fixed by Dean Rasheed, with small adjustments by me.
This has been wrong since commit d72f6c7503,
so back-patch to all supported branches.
This commit's parent made superfluous the bit's sole usage. Referential
integrity checks have long run as the subject table's owner, and that
now implies RLS bypass. Safe use of the bit was tricky, requiring
strict control over the SQL expressions evaluating therein. Back-patch
to 9.5, where the bit was introduced.

Every query of a single ENABLE ROW SECURITY table has two meanings, with
the row_security GUC selecting between them. With row_security=force
available, every function author would have been advised to either set
the GUC locally or test both meanings. Non-compliance would have
threatened reliability and, for SECURITY DEFINER functions, security.
Authors already face an obligation to account for search_path, and we
should not mimic that example. With this change, only BYPASSRLS roles
need exercise the aforementioned care. Back-patch to 9.5, where the
row_security GUC was introduced.
Since this narrows the domain of pg_db_role_setting.setconfig and
pg_proc.proconfig, one might bump catversion. A row_security=force
setting in one of those columns will elicit a clear message, so don't.
RemoveLocalLock() must consider the possibility that LockAcquireExtended()
failed to palloc the initial space for a locallock's lockOwners array.
I had evidently meant to cope with this hazard when the code was originally
written (commit 1785acebf2), but missed that
the pfree needed to be protected with an if-test. Just to make sure things
are left in a clean state, reset numLockOwners as well.

BSD find is not very smart and ends up writing double slashes into the
output in those cases. Also, xgettext is not very smart and splits the
file names incorrectly in those cases, resulting in slightly incorrect
file names being written into the POT file.
The shm_mq mechanism was built to send error (and notice) messages and
tuples between backends. However, shm_mq itself only deals in raw
bytes. Since commit 2bd9e412f9, we have
had infrastructure for one message to redirect protocol messages to a
queue and for another backend to parse them and do useful things with
them. This commit introduces a somewhat analogous facility for tuples
by adding a new type of DestReceiver, DestTupleQueue, which writes
each tuple generated by a query into a shm_mq, and a new
TupleQueueFunnel facility which reads raw tuples out of the queue and
reconstructs the HeapTuple format expected by the executor.
The TupleQueueFunnel abstraction supports reading from multiple tuple
streams at the same time, but only in round-robin fashion. Someone
could imaginably want other policies, but this should be good enough
to meet our short-term needs related to parallel query, and we can
always extend it later.
This also makes one minor addition to the shm_mq API that didn'
seem worth breaking out as a separate patch.
Extracted from Amit Kapila's parallel sequential scan patch. This
code was originally written by me, and then it was revised by Amit,
and then it was revised some more by me.
These functions have been looking up type info for every row they
process. Instead of doing that we only look them up the first time
through and stash the information in the aggregate state object.
Affects json_agg, json_object_agg, jsonb_agg and jsonb_object_agg.
There is plenty more work to do in making these more efficient,
especially the jsonb functions, but this is a virtually cost free
improvement that can be done right away.
Backpatch to 9.5 where the jsonb variants were introduced.
After an internal failure in shortest() or longest() while pinning down the
exact location of a match, find() forgot to free the DFA structure before
returning. This is pretty unlikely to occur, since we just successfully
ran the "search" variant of the DFA; but it could happen, and it would
result in a session-lifespan memory leak since this code uses malloc()
directly. Problem seems to have been aboriginal in Spencer's library,
so back-patch all the way.
In passing, correct a thinko in a comment I added awhile back about the
meaning of the "ntree" field.
I happened across these issues while comparing our code to Tcl's version
of the library.
Use IsBinaryCoercible() method instead of custom

Commit 013ebc0a7b introduces microvacuum for
GiST, deletetion of tuple marked LP_DEAD uses IndexPageMultiDelete while
recovery code uses IndexPageTupleDelete in loop. This causes a difference
in offset numbers of tuples to delete. Patch introduces usage of
IndexPageMultiDelete in GiST except gistplacetopage() where only one tuple is
deleted at once. That also slightly improve performance, because
IndexPageMultiDelete is more effective.

Bug report from Jeff Janes
Diagnostic and patch by Anastasia Lubennikova and me
Commit 924bcf4f16 introduced a framework
for parallel computation in PostgreSQL that makes most but not all
built-in functions safe to execute in parallel mode. In order to have
parallel query, we'll need to be able to determine whether that query
contains functions (either built-in or user-defined) that cannot be
safely executed in parallel mode. This requires those functions to be
labeled, so this patch introduces an infrastructure for that. Some
functions currently labeled as safe may need to be revised depending on
how pending issues related to heavyweight locking under paralllelism
are resolved.
Parallel plans can't be used except for the case where the query will
run to completion. If portal execution were suspended, the parallel
mode restrictions would need to remain in effect during that time, but
that might make other queries fail. Therefore, this patch introduces
a framework that enables consideration of parallel plans only when it
is known that the plan will be run to completion. This probably needs
some refinement; for example, at bind time, we do not know whether a
query run via the extended protocol will be execution to completion or
run with a limited fetch count. Having the client indicate its
intentions at bind time would constitute a wire protocol break. Some
contexts in which parallel mode would be safe are not adjusted by this
patch; the default is not to try parallel plans except from call sites
that have been updated to say that such plans are OK.
This commit doesn't introduce any parallel paths or plans; it just
provides a way to determine whether they could potentially be used.
I'm committing it on the theory that the remaining parallel sequential
scan patches will also get committed to this release, hopefully in the
not-too-distant future.

Sync our regex code with upstream changes since last time we did this,
which was Tcl 8.5.11 (see commit 08fd6ff37f).
The only functional change here is to disbelieve that an octal escape is
three digits long if it would exceed \377. That's a bug fix, but it's
a minor one and could change the interpretation of working regexes, so
don't back-patch.
In addition to that, s/INFINITY/DUPINF/ to eliminate the risk of collisions
with <math.h>'s macro, and s/LOCAL/NOPROP/ because that also seems like
an unnecessarily collision-prone macro name.
There were some other cosmetic changes in their copy that I did not adopt,
notably a rather half-hearted attempt at renaming some of the C functions
in a more verbose style. (I'm not necessarily against the concept, but
renaming just a few functions in the package is not an improvement.)
The docs claimed that \uhhhh would be interpreted as a Unicode value
regardless of the database encoding, but it's never been implemented
that way: \uhhhh and \xhhhh actually mean exactly the same thing, namely
the character that pg_mb2wchar translates to 0xhhhh. Moreover we were
falsely dismissive of the usefulness of Unicode code points above FFFF.
Fix that.
It's been like this for ages, so back-patch to all supported branches.

For the UPDATE/DELETE RETURNING case, filter the records which are not
visible to the user through ALL or SELECT policies from those considered
for the UPDATE or DELETE. This is similar to how the GRANT system
works, which prevents RETURNING unless the caller has SELECT rights on
the relation.

Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was introduced.
This refactors rewrite/rowsecurity.c to simplify the handling of the
default deny case (reducing the number of places where we check for and
add the default deny policy from three to one) by splitting up the
retrival of the policies from the application of them.
This also allowed us to do away with the policy_id field. A policy_name
field was added for WithCheckOption policies and is used in error
reporting, when available.

Commit 5ddc72887a does not actually work

This patch changes the log message which is logged when the server
successfully renames backup_label file to *.old but fails to rename
tablespace_map file during the shutdown. Previously the WARNING
message "online backup mode was not canceled" was logged in that case.
However this message is confusing because the backup mode is treated
as canceled whenever backup_label is successfully renamed. So this
commit makes the server log the message "online backup mode canceled"
in that case.
Also this commit changes errdetail messages so that they follow the
error message style guide.
Back-patch to 9.5 where tablespace_map file is introduced.
