d3d4f7233a Work around cross-version-upgrade issues created by commit 9e38c2bb5.
Summarily changing the STYPE of regression-test aggregates that
depend on array_append or array_cat is an issue for the buildfarm's
cross-version-upgrade tests, because those aggregates (as defined
in the back branches) now won't load into HEAD.  Although this seems
like only a minimal risk for genuine user-defined aggregates, we
need to do something for the buildfarm.  Hence, adjust the aggregate
definitions, in both HEAD and the back branches.

7b356c78f6 Ignore attempts to \gset into specially treated variables.
If an interactive psql session used \gset when querying a compromised
server, the attacker could execute arbitrary code as the operating
system account running psql.  Using a prefix not found among specially
treated variables, e.g. every lowercase string, precluded the attack.
Fix by issuing a warning and setting no variable for the column in
question.  Users wanting the old behavior can use a prefix and then a
meta-command like "\set HISTSIZE :prefix_HISTSIZE".  Back-patch to 9.5
(all supported versions).

43ebfea5a9 In security-restricted operations, block enqueue of at-commit user code.
Specifically, this blocks DECLARE ... WITH HOLD and firing of deferred
triggers within index expressions and materialized view queries.  An
attacker having permission to create non-temp objects in at least one
schema could execute arbitrary SQL functions under the identity of the
bootstrap superuser.  One can work around the vulnerability by disabling
autovacuum and not manually running ANALYZE, CLUSTER, REINDEX, CREATE
INDEX, VACUUM FULL, or REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW.  (Don't restore from
pg_dump, since it runs some of those commands.)  Plain VACUUM (without
FULL) is safe, and all commands are fine when a trusted user owns the
target object.  Performance may degrade quickly under this workaround,
however.  Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).

895d0f0e82 Properly detoast data in brin_form_tuple
brin_form_tuple failed to consider the values may be toasted, inserting
the toast pointer into the index. This may easily result in index
corruption, as the toast data may be deleted and cleaned up by vacuum.
The cleanup however does not care about indexes, leaving invalid toast
pointers behind, which triggers errors like this:

  ERROR:  missing chunk number 0 for toast value 16433 in pg_toast_16426

A less severe consequence are inconsistent failures due to the index row
being too large, depending on whether brin_form_tuple operated on plain
or toasted version of the row. For example

    CREATE TABLE t (val TEXT);
    INSERT INTO t VALUES ('... long value ...')
    CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING brin (val);

would likely succeed, as the row would likely include toast pointer.
Switching the order of INSERT and CREATE INDEX would likely fail:

    ERROR:  index row size 8712 exceeds maximum 8152 for index "idx"

because this happens before the row values are toasted.

The bug exists since PostgreSQL 9.5 where BRIN indexes were introduced.
So backpatch all the way back.

7dc18c619d Don't throw an error for LOCK TABLE on a self-referential view.
LOCK TABLE has complained about "infinite recursion" when applied
to a self-referential view, ever since we made it recurse into views
in v11.  However, that breaks pg_dump's new assumption that it's
okay to lock every relation.  There doesn't seem to be any good
reason to throw an error: if we just abandon the recursion, we've
still satisfied the requirement of locking every referenced relation.

205f958406 Guard against core dump from uninitialized subplan.
If the planner erroneously puts a non-parallel-safe SubPlan into
a parallelized portion of the query tree, nodeSubplan.c will fail
in the worker processes because it finds a null in es_subplanstates,
which it's unable to cope with.  It seems worth a test-and-elog to
make that an error case rather than a core dump case.

was responsible for allowing nulls to appear in es_subplanstates
to begin with.  So, back-patch to v10 where that came in.

The intention in commit 491c029db was to require superuserness to
change the BYPASSRLS property, but the actual effect of the coding
in AlterRole() was to require superuserness to change anything at all

be changeable under the same rules as for a normal role, though.

f28b089cbd Fix unportable use of getnameinfo() in pg_hba_file_rules view.
fill_hba_line() thought it could get away with passing sizeof(struct
sockaddr_storage) rather than the actual addrlen previously returned
by getaddrinfo().  While that appears to work on many platforms,
it does not work on FreeBSD 11: you get back a failure, which leads
to the view showing NULL for the address and netmask columns in all
rows.  The POSIX spec for getnameinfo() is pretty clearly on
FreeBSD's side here: you should pass the actual address length.
So it seems plausible that there are other platforms where this
coding also fails, and we just hadn't noticed.

Also, IMO the fact that getnameinfo() failure leads to a NULL output
is pretty bogus in itself.  Our pg_getnameinfo_all() wrapper is
careful to emit "???" on failure, and we should use that in such
cases.  NULL should only be emitted in rows that don't have IP
addresses.

Per bug #16695 from Peter Vandivier.  Back-patch to v10 where this
code was added.

0a593bc467 Extend PageIsVerified() to handle more custom options
This is useful for checks of relation pages without having to load the
pages into the shared buffers, and two cases can make use of that: page
verification in base backups and the online, lock-safe, flavor.

Compatibility is kept with past versions using a routine that calls the
new extended routine with the set of options compatible with the
original version.  Contrary to d401c576, a macro cannot be used as there
may be external code relying on the presence of the original routine.

This is applied down to 11, where this will be used by a follow-up
commit addressing a set of issues with page verification in base
backups.

9eb2503391 Use mode "r" for popen() in psql's evaluate_backtick().
In almost all other places, we use plain "r" or "w" mode in popen()
calls (the exceptions being for COPY data).  This one has been
overlooked (possibly because it's buried in a ".l" flex file?),
but it's using PG_BINARY_R.

Kensuke Okamura complained in bug #16688 that we fail to strip \r
when stripping the trailing newline from a backtick result string.
That's true enough, but we'd also fail to convert embedded \r\n
cleanly, which also seems undesirable.  Fixing the popen() mode
seems like the best way to deal with this.

pg_dump: Lock all relations, not just plain tables
Now that LOCK TABLE can take any relation type, acquire lock on all
relations that are to be dumped.  This prevents schema changes or

20be76d5c4 Fix connection string handling in psql's \connect command.
psql's \connect claims to be able to re-use previous connection
parameters, but in fact it only re-uses the database name, user name,
host name (and possibly hostaddr, depending on version), and port.
This is problematic for assorted use cases.  Notably, pg_dump[all]
emits "\connect databasename" commands which we would like to have
re-use all other parameters.  If such a script is loaded in a psql run
that initially had "-d connstring" with some non-default parameters,
those other parameters would be lost, potentially causing connection
failure.  (Thus, this is the same kind of bug addressed in commits
a45bc8a4f and 8e5793ab6, although the details are much different.)

To fix, redesign do_connect() so that it pulls out all properties
of the old PGconn using PQconninfo(), and then replaces individual
properties in that array.  In the case where we don't wish to re-use
anything, get libpq's default settings using PQconndefaults() and
replace entries in that, so that we don't need different code paths
for the two cases.

This does result in an additional behavioral change for cases where
the original connection parameters allowed multiple hosts, say
"psql -h host1,host2", and the \connect request allows re-use of the
host setting.  Because the previous coding relied on PQhost(), it
would only permit reconnection to the same host originally selected.
Although one can think of scenarios where that's a good thing, there
are others where it is not.  Moreover, that behavior doesn't seem to
meet the principle of least surprise, nor was it documented; nor is
it even clear it was intended, since that coding long pre-dates the
addition of multi-host support to libpq.  Hence, this patch is content
to drop it and re-use the host list as given.

5a9f99bed8 Fix connection string handling in src/bin/scripts/ programs.
When told to process all databases, clusterdb, reindexdb, and vacuumdb
would reconnect by replacing their --maintenance-db parameter with the
name of the target database.  If that parameter is a connstring (which
has been allowed for a long time, though we failed to document that
before this patch), we'd lose any other options it might specify, for
example SSL or GSS parameters, possibly resulting in failure to connect.
Thus, this is the same bug as commit a45bc8a4f fixed in pg_dump and
pg_restore.  We can fix it in the same way, by using libpq's rules for
handling multiple "dbname" parameters to add the target database name
separately.  I chose to apply the same refactoring approach as in that
patch, with a struct to handle the command line parameters that need to
be passed through to connectDatabase.  (Maybe someday we can unify the
very similar functions here and in pg_dump/pg_restore.)

883226441d In libpq for Windows, call WSAStartup once and WSACleanup not at all.
The Windows documentation insists that every WSAStartup call should
have a matching WSACleanup call.  However, if that ever had actual
relevance, it wasn't in this century.  Every remotely-modern Windows
kernel is capable of cleaning up when a process exits without doing
that, and must be so to avoid resource leaks in case of a process
crash.  Moreover, Postgres backends have done WSAStartup without
WSACleanup since commit 4cdf51e64 in 2004, and we've never seen any
indication of a problem with that.

libpq's habit of doing WSAStartup during connection start and
WSACleanup during shutdown is also rather inefficient, since a
series of non-overlapping connection requests leads to repeated,
quite expensive DLL unload/reload cycles.  We document a workaround
for that (having the application call WSAStartup for itself), but
that's just a kluge.  It's also worth noting that it's far from
uncommon for applications to exit without doing PQfinish, and
we've not heard reports of trouble from that either.

However, the real reason for acting on this is that recent
experiments by Alexander Lakhin show that calling WSACleanup
during PQfinish is triggering the symptom we occasionally see
that a process using libpq fails to emit expected stdio output.

Therefore, let's change libpq so that it calls WSAStartup only
once per process, during the first connection attempt, and never
calls WSACleanup at all.

While at it, get rid of the only other WSACleanup call in our code
tree, in pg_dump/parallel.c; that presumably is equally useless.

2681bb230a Relax some asserts in merge join costing code
In the planner, it was possible, given an extreme enough case containing a
large number of joins for the number of estimated rows to become infinite.
This could cause problems in initial_cost_mergejoin() where we perform
some calculations based on those row estimates.

A problem case, presented by Onder Kalaci showed an Assert failure from
an Assert checking outerstartsel <= outerendsel.  In his test case this
was effectively NaN <= Inf, which is false.  The NaN outerstartsel came
from multiplying the infinite outer_path_rows by 0.0.

In master, this problem was fixed by a90c950fc, however, that fix was too
invasive for the backbranches.  Here we just relax the Asserts to allow
them to pass.  The worst that appears to happen from this is that we show
NaN cost values and infinite row estimates in EXPLAIN.  add_path() would
have had a hard time doing anything useful with such costs, but that does
not really matter as if the row estimates were even close to accurate,
such plan would not complete this side of the heat death of the universe.

4a4f4487d2 llvmjit: Work around bug in LLVM 3.9 causing crashes after 72559438f9.
Unfortunately in LLVM 3.9 LLVMGetAttributeCountAtIndex(func, index)
crashes when called with an index that has 0 attributes. Since there's
no way to work around this in the C API, add a small C++ wrapper doing
so.

The only reason this didn't fail before 72559438f9 is that there
always are function attributes...

eb421c83b0 pg_upgrade: generate check error for left-over new tablespace
Previously, if pg_upgrade failed, and the user recreated the cluster but
did not remove the new cluster tablespace directory, a later pg_upgrade
would fail since the new tablespace directory would already exists.
This adds error reporting for this during check.

f3dee5b9ab llvmjit: Also copy parameter / return value attributes from template functions.
Previously we only copied the function attributes. That caused problems at
least on s390x: Because we didn't copy the 'zeroext' attribute for
ExecAggTransReparent()'s *IsNull parameters, expressions invoking it didn't
ensure that the upper bytes of the registers were zeroed. In the - relatively
rare - cases where not, ExecAggTransReparent() wrongly ended up in the
newValueIsNull branch due to the register not being zero. Subsequently causing
a crash.

It's quite possible that this would cause problems on other platforms, and in
other places than just ExecAggTransReparent() on s390x.

Thanks to Christoph (and the Debian project) for providing me with access to a
s390x machine, allowing me to debug this.

85834023a9 In the postmaster, rely on the signal infrastructure to block signals.
POSIX sigaction(2) can be told to block a set of signals while a
signal handler executes.  Make use of that instead of manually
blocking and unblocking signals in the postmaster's signal handlers.
This should save a few cycles, but more importantly it prevents
recursive invocation of signal handlers when many signals arrive in
close succession.  (Assuming that the platform's signal infrastructure
is designed to avoid consuming stack space in that case, but this is
demonstrably true at least on Linux.)  The existing code has been seen
to recurse to the point of stack overflow, either in the postmaster
or in a forked-off child.

Back-patch of commit 9abb2bfc0.  At the time, we'd only seen excess
postmaster stack consumption in the buildfarm; but we now have a
user report of it, and that commit has aged enough to have a fair
amount of confidence that it doesn't break anything.

This still doesn't change anything about the way that it works on
Windows.  Perhaps someone else would like to fix that?

Per bug #16673 from David Geier.  Back-patch to 9.6.  Although
the problem exists in principle before that, we've only seen it
actually materialize in connection with heavy use of parallel
workers, so it doesn't seem necessary to do anything in 9.5;
and the relevant code is different there, too.

cfa4cff30c Fix memory leak when guc.c decides a setting can't be applied now.
The prohibitValueChange code paths in set_config_option(), which
are executed whenever we re-read a PGC_POSTMASTER variable from
postgresql.conf, neglected to free anything before exiting.  Thus
we'd leak the proposed new value of a PGC_STRING variable, as noted
by BoChen in bug #16666.  For all variable types, if the check hook
creates an "extra" chunk, we'd also leak that.

These are malloc not palloc chunks, so there is no mechanism for
recovering the leaks before process exit.  Fortunately, the values
are typically not very large, meaning you'd have to go through an
awful lot of SIGHUP configuration-reload cycles to make the leakage
amount to anything.  Still, for a long-lived postmaster process it
could potentially be a problem.

Oversight in commit 2594cf0e8.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

e3868c7d59 Fix optimization hazard in gram.y's makeOrderedSetArgs(), redux.
It appears that commit cf63c641c, which intended to prevent
misoptimization of the result-building step in makeOrderedSetArgs,
didn't go far enough: buildfarm member hornet's version of xlc
is now optimizing back to the old, broken behavior in which
list_length(directargs) is fetched only after list_concat() has
changed that value.  I'm not entirely convinced whether that's
an undeniable compiler bug or whether it can be justified by a
sufficiently aggressive interpretation of C sequence points.
So let's just change the code to make it harder to misinterpret.

Back-patch to all supported versions, just in case.

f2c6e94f07 Rethink recent fix for pg_dump's handling of extension config tables.
Commit 3eb3d3e78 was a few bricks shy of a load: while it correctly
set the table's "interesting" flag when deciding to dump the data of
an extension config table, it was not correct to clear that flag
if we concluded we shouldn't dump the data.  This led to the crash
reported in bug #16655, because in fact we'll traverse dumpTableSchema
anyway for all extension tables (to see if they have user-added
seclabels or RLS policies).

The right thing to do is to force "interesting" true in makeTableDataInfo,
and otherwise leave the flag alone.  (Doing it there is more future-proof
in case additional calls are added, and it also avoids setting the flag
unnecessarily if that function decides the table is non-dumpable.)

This investigation also showed that while only the --inserts code path
had an obvious failure in the case considered by 3eb3d3e78, the COPY
code path also has a problem with not having loaded table subsidiary
data.  That causes fmtCopyColumnList to silently return an empty string
instead of the correct column list.  That accidentally mostly works,
which perhaps is why we didn't notice this before.  It would only fail
if the restore column order is different from the dump column order,
which only happens in weird inheritance cases, so it's not surprising
nobody had hit the case with an extension config table.  Nonetheless,
it's a bug, and it goes a long way back, not just to v12 where the
--inserts code path started to have a problem with this.

In hopes of catching such cases a bit sooner in future, add some
Asserts that "interesting" has been set in both dumpTableData and
dumpTableSchema.  Adjust the test case added by 3eb3d3e78 so that it
checks the COPY rather than INSERT form of that bug, allowing it to
detect the longer-standing symptom.

Per bug #16655 from Cameron Daniel.  Back-patch to all supported
branches.

d5109a163f Fix two latent(?) bugs in equivclass.c.
get_eclass_for_sort_expr() computes expr_relids and nullable_relids
early on, even though they won't be needed unless we make a new
EquivalenceClass, which we often don't.  Aside from the probably-minor
inefficiency, there's a memory management problem: these bitmapsets will
be built in the caller's context, leading to dangling pointers if that
is shorter-lived than root->planner_cxt.  This would be a live bug if
get_eclass_for_sort_expr() could be called with create_it = true during
GEQO join planning.  So far as I can find, the core code never does
that, but it's hard to be sure that no extensions do, especially since
the comments make it clear that that's supposed to be a supported case.
Fix by not computing these values until we've switched into planner_cxt
to build the new EquivalenceClass.

generate_join_implied_equalities() uses inner_rel->relids to look up
relevant eclasses, but it ought to be using nominal_inner_relids.
This is presently harmless because a child RelOptInfo will always have
exactly the same eclass_indexes as its topmost parent; but that might
not be true forever, and anyway it makes the code confusing.

The first of these is old (introduced by me in f3b3b8d5b), so back-patch
to all supported branches.  The second only dates to v13, but we might
as well back-patch it to keep the code looking similar across branches.

0d1f6ae485 Improve stability of identity.sql regression test.
I noticed while trying to run the regression tests under a low
geqo_threshold that one query on information_schema.columns had
unstable (as in, variable from one run to the next) output order.
This is pretty unsurprising given the complexity of the underlying
plan.  Interestingly, of this test's three nigh-identical queries on
information_schema.columns, the other two already had ORDER BY clauses
guaranteeing stable output.  Let's make this one look the same.

Back-patch to v10 where this test was added.  We've not heard field
reports of the test failing, but this experience shows that it can
happen when testing under even slightly unusual conditions.

ad4cf31ec0 Put back explicit setting of replication values within TAP tests.
Commit 151c0c5f7 neglected the possibility that a TEMP_CONFIG file
would explicitly set max_wal_senders=0; as indeed buildfarm member
thorntail does, so that it can test wal_level=minimal in other test
suites.  Hence, rather than assuming that max_wal_senders=10 will
prevail if we say nothing, set it explicitly.

Set max_replication_slots=10 explicitly too, just to be safe.

Back-patch to v10, like the previous patch.
