The existing renegotiation code was home for several bugs: it might
erroneously report that renegotiation had failed; it might try to
execute another renegotiation while the previous one was pending; it
failed to terminate the connection if the renegotiation never actually
took place; if a renegotiation was started, the byte count was reset,
even if the renegotiation wasn't completed (this isn't good from a
security perspective because it means continuing to use a session that
should be considered compromised due to volume of data transferred.)
The new code is structured to avoid these pitfalls: renegotiation is
started a little earlier than the limit has expired; the handshake
sequence is retried until it has actually returned successfully, and no
more than that, but if it fails too many times, the connection is
closed. The byte count is reset only when the renegotiation has
succeeded, and if the renegotiation byte count limit expires, the
connection is terminated.
This commit only touches the master branch, because some of the changes
are controversial. If everything goes well, a back-patch might be
considered.

make maintainer-check was obscure and rarely called in practice, and
many breakages were missed. Fold everything that make maintainer-check
used to do into the normal build. Specifically:
- Call duplicate_oids when genbki.pl is called.
- Check for tabs in SGML files when the documentation is built.
- Run msgfmt with the -c option during the regular build. Add an
additional configure check to see whether we are using the GNU
version. (make maintainer-check probably used to fail with non-GNU
msgfmt.)
Keep maintainer-check as around as phony target for the time being in
case anyone is calling it. But it won't do anything anymore.
Change the input/output format to {A,B,C}, to match the internal
representation.
Complete the implementations of line_in, line_out, line_recv, line_send.
Remove comments and error messages about the line type not being
implemented. Add regression tests for existing line operators and
functions.

REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY was broken for any matview
containing a column of a type without a default btree operator
class. It also did not produce results consistent with a non-
concurrent REFRESH or a normal view if any column was of a type
which allowed user-visible differences between values which
compared as equal according to the type's default btree opclass.
Concurrent matview refresh was modified to use the new operators
to solve these problems.
Documentation was added for record comparison, both for the
default btree operator class for record, and the newly added
operators. Regression tests now check for proper behavior both
for a matview with a box column and a matview containing a citext
column.

The TYPEALIGN macro, and the related ones like MAXALIGN, don't work with
values larger than intptr_t, because TYPEALIGN casts the argument to
intptr_t to do the arithmetic. That's not a problem when dealing with
pointers or lengths or offsets related to pointers, but the XLogInsert
scaling patch added a call to MAXALIGN with an XLogRecPtr argument.
To fix, add wider variants of the macros, called TYPEALIGN64 and MAXALIGN64,
which are just like the existing variants but work with uint64 instead of
intptr_t.

1. In heap_hot_search_buffer(), the PredicateLockTuple() call is passed
wrong offset number. heapTuple->t_self is set to the tid of the first
tuple in the chain that's visited, not the one actually being read.
2. CheckForSerializableConflictIn() uses the tuple's t_ctid field
instead of t_self to check for exiting predicate locks on the tuple. If
the tuple was updated, but the updater rolled back, t_ctid points to the
aborted dead tuple.
Reported by Hannu Krosing. Backpatch to 9.1.
If a tuple was frozen while its predicate locks mattered,
read-write dependencies could be missed, resulting in failure to
detect conflicts which could lead to anomalies in committed
serializable transactions.
This field was added to the tag when we still thought that it was
necessary to carry locks forward to a new version of an updated
row. That was later proven to be unnecessary, which allowed
simplification of the code, but elimination of xmin from the tag
was missed at the time.

Backpatch to 9.1.
Clamp the minimum sleep time during immediate shutdown or crash to a
minimum of zero, not a maximum of one second. The previous code could
result in a negative sleep time, leading to failure in select() calls.
Also, on crash recovery, reset AbortStartTime as soon as SIGKILL is sent
or abort processing has commenced instead of waiting until the startup
process completes. Reset AbortStartTime as soon as SIGKILL is sent,
too, to avoid doing that repeatedly.

DISCARD ALL will now discard cached sequence information, as well.

It makes for cleaner code to have separate Get/Add functions for PostingItems
and ItemPointers. A few callsites that have to deal with both types need to
be duplicated because of this, but all the callers have to know which one
they're dealing with anyway. Overall, this reduces the amount of casting
required.
Extracted from Alexander Korotkov's larger patch to change the data page
format.
Previously bms_add_member() would palloc a whole-new copy of the existing
set, copy the words, and pfree the old one. repalloc() is potentially much
faster, and more importantly, this is less surprising if CurrentMemoryContext
is not the same as the context the old set is in. bms_add_member() still
allocates a new bitmapset in CurrentMemoryContext if NULL is passed as
argument, but that is a lot less likely to induce bugs.

lo_open registers the currently active snapshot, and checks if the
large object exists after that. Normally, snapshots registered by lo_open
are unregistered at end of transaction when the lo descriptor is closed, but
if we error out before the lo descriptor is added to the list of open
descriptors, it is leaked. Fix by moving the snapshot registration to after
checking if the large object exists.
Reported by Pavel Stehule. Backpatch to 8.4. The snapshot registration
system was introduced in 8.4, so prior versions are not affected (and not
supported, anyway).
There is a rare race condition, when a transaction that inserted a tuple
aborts while vacuum is processing the page containing the inserted tuple.
Vacuum prunes the page first, which normally removes any dead tuples, but
if the inserting transaction aborts right after that, the loop after
pruning will see a dead tuple and remove it instead. That's OK, but if the
page is on a table with no indexes, and the page becomes completely empty
after removing the dead tuple (or tuples) on it, it will be immediately
marked as all-visible. That's OK, but the sanity check in vacuum would
throw a warning because it thinks that the page contains dead tuples and
was nevertheless marked as all-visible, even though it just vacuumed away
the dead tuples and so it doesn't actually contain any.
Spotted this while reading the code. It's difficult to hit the race
condition otherwise, but can be done by putting a breakpoint after the
heap_page_prune() call.
Backpatch all the way to 8.4, where this code first appeared.
B-tree operators are not allowed to leak memory into the current memory
context. Range_cmp leaked detoasted copies of the arguments. That caused
a quick out-of-memory error when creating an index on a range column.
Reported by Marian Krucina, bug #8468.
Previously, arbitray system columns could be mentioned in table
constraints, but they were not correctly checked at runtime, because
the values weren't actually set correctly in the tuple. Since it
seems easy enough to initialize the table OID properly, do that,
and continue allowing that column, but disallow the rest unless and
until someone figures out a way to make them work properly.
No back-patch, because this doesn't seem important enough to take the
risk of destabilizing the back branches. In fact, this will pose a
dump-and-reload hazard for those upgrading from previous versions:
constraints that were accepted before but were not correctly enforced
will now either be enforced correctly or not accepted at all. Either
could result in restore failures, but in practice I think very few
users will notice the difference, since the use case is pretty
marginal anyway and few users will be relying on features that have
not historically worked.

It seems to make more sense to use "cutoff multixact" terminology
throughout the backend code; "freeze" is associated with replacing of an
Xid with FrozenTransactionId, which is not what we do for MultiXactIds.

Some adjustments by Álvaro Herrera
Once the administrator has called for an immediate shutdown or a backend
crash has triggered a reinitialization, no mere SIGINT or SIGTERM should
change that course. Such derailment remains possible when the signal
arrives before quickdie() blocks signals. That being a narrow race
affecting most PostgreSQL signal handlers in some way, leave it for
another patch. Back-patch this to all supported versions.
Doing so was helpful for some Valgrind usage and distracting for other
usage. One can achieve the same effect by changing log_statement and
pointing both PostgreSQL and Valgrind logging to stderr.
Per gripe from Andres Freund.
Commit 95ef6a3448 removed the
ability to create rules on an individual column as of 7.3, but
left some residual code which has since been useless. This cleans
up that dead code without any change in behavior other than
dropping the useless column from the catalog.
If the hash table backing a catalog cache becomes too full (fillfactor > 2),
enlarge it. A new buckets array, double the size of the old, is allocated,
and all entries in the old hash are moved to the right bucket in the new
hash.
This has two benefits. First, cache lookups don't get so expensive when
there are lots of entries in a cache, like if you access hundreds of
thousands of tables. Second, we can make the (initial) sizes of the caches
much smaller, which saves memory.
This patch dials down the initial sizes of the catcaches. The new sizes are
chosen so that a backend that only runs a few basic queries still won't need
to enlarge any of them.
This reverts commit 269e780822
and commit 5b571bb8c8.
Unfortunately, the initial patch had insufficient performance testing,
and resulted in a regression.
Per report by Thom Brown.
Performance testing shows that if the insertpos_lck spinlock and the fields
that it protects are on the same cache line with other variables that are
frequently accessed, the false sharing can hurt performance a lot. Keep
them apart by adding some padding.
