Buildfarm experience shows that this function can fail with ENOENT
if some other process unlinks a file between when we read the directory
entry and when we try to stat() it. The problem is old but we had
not noticed it until 085b6b667 added regression test coverage.
To fix, just ignore ENOENT failures. There is one other case that
this might hide: a symlink that points to nowhere. That seems okay
though, at least better than erroring.
Back-patch to v10 where this function was added, since the regression
test cases were too.

Experimentation shows that it's not hard at all to drive the

so throw in a check_stack_depth() call, as I just did in HEAD.
I wasn't able to make it take a long time, because all the
pathological cases I tried hit stack overflow first; but
I bet there are some others that do take a long time, so add

GetLocaleInfoEx() can fail on strings that setlocale() was perfectly
happy with. A common way for that to happen is if the locale string
is actually a Unix-style string, say "et_EE.UTF-8". In that case,
what's after the dot is an encoding name, not a Windows codepage number;
blindly treating it as a codepage number led to failure, with a fairly
silly error message. Hence, check to see if what's after the dot is
all digits, and if not, treat it as a literal encoding name rather than
a codepage number. This will do the right thing with many Unix-style
locale strings, and produce a more sensible error message otherwise.
Somewhat independently of that, treat a zero (CP_ACP) result from
GetLocaleInfoEx() as meaning that we must use UTF-8 encoding.

The documentation says that the max length is 255 bytes, but
code inspection says it's actually 255 characters; and relevant
lengths are stored as uint16 so that that works.
These uint16 fields could be overflowed by excessively long input,
producing strange results. Complain for invalid input.
Likewise check for out-of-range values of the repeat counts in lquery.
(We don't try too hard on that one, notably not bothering to detect
if atoi's result has overflowed.)
Also detect length overflow in ltree_concat.
In passing, be more consistent about whether "syntax error" messages
include the type name. Also, clarify the documentation about what
the size limit is.

In 9.4 I added support to use a historical snapshot in
ScanPgRelation(), while adding logical decoding. Unfortunately a
conflict with the concurrent removal of SnapshotNow was incorrectly
resolved, leading to an unregistered snapshot being used.
It is not correct to use an unregistered (or non-active) snapshot for
anything non-trivial, because catalog invalidations can cause the
snapshot to be invalidated.
Luckily it seems unlikely to actively cause problems in practice, as
ScanPgRelation() requires that we already have a lock on the relation,
we only look for a single row, and we don't appear to rely on the
result's tid to be correct. It however is clearly wrong and potential
negative consequences would likely be hard to find. So it seems worth
backpatching the fix, even without a concrete hazard.

plpgsql_xact_cb ought to treat events XACT_EVENT_PARALLEL_COMMIT and
XACT_EVENT_PARALLEL_ABORT like XACT_EVENT_COMMIT and XACT_EVENT_ABORT
respectively, since its goal is to do process-local cleanup. This
oversight caused plpgsql's end-of-transaction cleanup to not get done
in parallel workers. Since a parallel worker will exit just after the
transaction cleanup, the effects of this are limited. I couldn't find
any case in the core code with user-visible effects, but perhaps there
are some in extensions. In any case it's wrong, so let's fix it before
it bites us not after.
In passing, add some comments around the handling of expression
evaluation resources in DO blocks. There's no live bug there, but it's

During the reporting of constraint violations for partitioned tables,
ExecPartitionCheckEmitError(), ExecConstraints(),
ExecWithCheckOptions() set the slot descriptor of the input slot to
the root partition's tuple desc. That's generally problematic when
the slot could be used by other routines, but can cause crashes after
the introduction of slots with "fixed" tuple descriptors in
ad7dbee368.
The problem likely escaped detection so far for two reasons: First,
currently the only known way that these routines are used with a
partitioned table that is not "owned" by partitioning code is when
"fast defaults" are used for the child partition. Second, as an error
is raised afterwards, an "external" slot that had its descriptor
changed, is very unlikely to continue being used.
Even though the issue currently is only known to cause a crash for
11 (as that has both fast defaults and "fixed" slot descriptors), it
seems worth applying the fix to 10 too. Potentially changing random
slots is hazardous.
Regression tests will be added in a separate commit, as it seems best
to add them for master and 12 too.

Until now, only selected bulk operations (e.g. COPY) did this. If a
given relfilenode received both a WAL-skipping COPY and a WAL-logged
operation (e.g. INSERT), recovery could lose tuples from the COPY. See
src/backend/access/transam/README section "Skipping WAL for New
RelFileNode" for the new coding rules. Maintainers of table access
methods should examine that section.
To maintain data durability, just before commit, we choose between an
fsync of the relfilenode and copying its contents to WAL. A new GUC,
wal_skip_threshold, guides that choice. If this change slows a workload
that creates small, permanent relfilenodes under wal_level=minimal, try
adjusting wal_skip_threshold. Users setting a timeout on COMMIT may
need to adjust that timeout, and log_min_duration_statement analysis
will reflect time consumption moving to COMMIT from commands like COPY.
Internally, this requires a reliable determination of whether
RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction() would unlink a relation's
current relfilenode. Introduce rd_firstRelfilenodeSubid. Amend the
specification of rd_createSubid such that the field is zero when a new
rel has an old rd_node. Make relcache.c retain entries for certain
dropped relations until end of transaction.

I noticed that we completely failed to document the restriction

It's been like this all along, so back-patch.
If pkg-config is installed and knows about libxml2, use its information
rather than asking xml2-config. Otherwise proceed as before. This
patch allows "configure --with-libxml" to succeed on platforms that
have pkg-config but not xml2-config, which is likely to soon become
a typical situation.
The old mechanism can be forced by setting XML2_CONFIG explicitly
(hence, build processes that were already doing so will certainly
not need adjustment). Also, it's now possible to set XML2_CFLAGS
and XML2_LIBS explicitly to override both programs.
There is a small risk of this breaking existing build processes,
if there are multiple libxml2 installations on the machine and
pkg-config disagrees with xml2-config about which to use. The
only case where that seems really likely is if a builder has tried
to select a non-default xml2-config by putting it early in his PATH
rather than setting XML2_CONFIG. Plan to warn against that in the
minor release notes.

resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and resolve_polymorphic_argtypes() failed to
cover the case of having to resolve anyarray given only an anyrange input.
The bug was masked if anyelement was also used (as either input or
output), which probably helps account for our not having noticed.
While looking at this I noticed that resolve_generic_type() would produce
the wrong answer if asked to make that same resolution. ISTM that
resolve_generic_type() is confusingly defined and overly complex, so
rather than fix it, let's just make funcapi.c do the specific lookups
it requires for itself.
With this change, resolve_generic_type() is not used anywhere, so remove
it in HEAD. In the back branches, leave it alone (complete with bug)
just in case any external code is using it.
While we're here, make some other refactoring adjustments in funcapi.c
with an eye to upcoming future expansion of the set of polymorphic types:
* Simplify quick-exit tests by adding an overall have_polymorphic_result
flag. This is about a wash now but will be a win when there are more
flags.
* Reduce duplication of code between resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and
resolve_polymorphic_argtypes().
* Don't bother to validate correct matching of anynonarray or anyenum;
the parser should have done that, and even if it didn't, just doing
"return false" here would lead to a very confusing, off-point error
message. (Really, "return false" in these two functions should only
occur if the call_expr isn't supplied or we can't obtain data type
info from it.)
* For the same reason, throw an elog rather than "return false" if
we fail to resolve a polymorphic type.

That means a blind test for the first file's size being 16MB can
fail. Restrict based on file name length to make it more robust.
Per buildfarm.
The data types that contrib/pageinspect's bt_metap() function were
declared to return as OUT arguments were wrong in some cases. In
particular, the oldest_xact column (a TransactionId/xid field) was
declared integer/int4 within the pageinspect extension's sql file. This
led to errors when an oldest_xact value that exceeded 2^31-1 was
encountered.
We cannot fix the declaration on Postgres 11 or 12. All we can do is
ameliorate the problem. Use "%d" instead of "%u" to format the output
of the oldest_xact value. This makes the C code match the declaration,
suppressing unhelpful error messages that might otherwise make
bt_metap() totally unusable. A bogus negative oldest_xact value will be
displayed instead of raising an error.
This commit addresses the same issue as master branch commit 691e8b2e18,
which actually fixed the problem. Backpatch to the 11 and 12 branches

oldest_xact. All of the other problematic columns already display bogus

This coding technique is undesirable because (a) it leaks the FD for
the rest of the transaction if the SRF is not run to completion, and
(b) allocated FDs are a scarce resource, but multiple interleaved
uses of the relevant functions could eat many such FDs.
In v11 and later, a query such as "SELECT pg_ls_waldir() LIMIT 1"
yields a warning about the leaked FD, and the only reason there's
no warning in earlier branches is that fd.c didn't whine about such
leaks before commit 9cb7db3f0. Even disregarding the warning, it
wouldn't be too hard to run a backend out of FDs with careless use

Previously, event triggers were restored just after regular triggers
(and FK constraints, which are basically triggers). This is risky
since an event trigger, once installed, could interfere with subsequent
restore commands. Worse, because event triggers don't have any
particular dependencies on any post-data objects, a parallel restore
would consider them eligible to be restored the moment the post-data
phase starts, allowing them to also interfere with restoration of a
whole bunch of objects that would have been restored before them in
a serial restore. There's no way to completely remove the risk of a
misguided event trigger breaking the restore, since if nothing else
it could break other event triggers. But we can certainly push them
to later in the process to minimize the hazard.
To fix, tweak the RestorePass mechanism introduced by commit 3eb9a5e7c
so that event triggers are handled as part of the post-ACL processing
pass (renaming the "REFRESH" pass to "POST_ACL" to reflect its more
general use). This will cause them to restore after everything except
matview refreshes, which seems OK since matview refreshes really ought
to run in the post-restore state of the database. In a parallel
restore, event triggers and matview refreshes might be intermixed,
but that seems all right as well.
Also update the code and comments in pg_dump_sort.c so that its idea
of how things are sorted agrees with what actually happens due to
the RestorePass mechanism. This is mostly cosmetic: it'll affect the
order of objects in a dump's TOC, but not the actual restore order.

At the end of recovery, standby mode is turned off to re-fetch the last
valid record from archive or pg_wal. Previously, if recovery target was
reached and standby mode was turned off while the current WAL source
was stream, recovery could try to retrieve WAL file containing the last
valid record unexpectedly from stream even though not in standby mode.
This caused an assertion failure. That is, the assertion test confirms that
WAL file should not be retrieved from stream if standby mode is not true.
This commit moves back the current WAL source to archive if it's stream
even though not in standby mode, to avoid that assertion failure.

attempt to access an already-dropped temp namespace, resulting in
an assertion failure or null-pointer dereference. (In practice,
since we don't drop temp namespaces automatically but merely
recycle them, this situation could only arise if a superuser does
a manual drop of a temp namespace. Still, that should be allowed.)
The core of the bug, IMO, is that isTempNamespaceInUse and its callers
failed to think hard about whether to treat "temp namespace isn't there"
differently from "temp namespace isn't in use". In hopes of forestalling
future mistakes of the same ilk, replace that function with a new one
checkTempNamespaceStatus, which makes the same tests but returns a
three-way enum rather than just a bool. isTempNamespaceInUse is gone
entirely in HEAD; but just in case some external code is relying on it,
keep it in the back branches, as a bug-compatible wrapper around the
new function.
Per report originally from Prabhat Kumar Sahu, investigated by Mahendra
Singh and Michael Paquier; the final form of the patch is my fault.
This replaces the failed fix attempt in a052f6cbb.
Backpatch as far as v11, as 246a6c8f7 was.

Access to this module is granted to the pg_monitor role, not
pg_read_all_stats. (Given the view's performance impact,
it seems wise to be restrictive, so I think this was the
correct decision --- and anyway it was clearly intentional.)
Per bug #16279 from Philip Semanchuk.

OpenBSD falls back to "C" when using an incorrect input with setlocale()
and LC_CTYPE, causing this test, introduced by 008cf04, to fail. This
removes the culprit test to avoid the portability issue.
Per report from Robert Haas, via buildfarm member curculio.
