The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is
adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot
for the ForeignScan node. But in the case where the outer plan contains
an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for
evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local
conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error.
The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the
Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra
columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them
up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in
the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan. Repair.

When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects
uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID. FreeBSD still does so,
but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4
(random) UUID instead. That's not acceptable for our purposes:
if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1.
Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'.
Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation
is usable. It might be, depending on which OS version you're using,
but we're not going to get into that kind of detail.
(Maybe someday we should ditch all these external libraries
and just write our own UUID code, but today is not that day.)

Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION
records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that
information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart,
if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction
that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the
snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong
snapshot.
To fix this problem, this changes the snapshot builder so that it
remembers the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record
after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the
transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial
running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. To
avoid ABI breakage, we store the array of the initial running transactions
in the static variables InitialRunningXacts and NInitialRunningXacts,
instead of storing those in SnapBuild or ReorderBuffer.
This approach has a false positive; we could end up adding the transaction
that didn't change catalog to the snapshot since we cannot distinguish
whether the transaction has catalog changes only by checking the COMMIT
record. It doesn't have the information on which (sub) transaction has
catalog changes, and XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS doesn't necessarily indicate
that the transaction has catalog change. But that won't be a problem since
we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs.
On the master branch, we took a more future-proof approach by writing
catalog modifying transactions to the serialized snapshot which avoids the
above false positive. But we cannot backpatch it because of a change in
the SnapBuild.

We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with
multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files. It occurred to me that on
32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow
of calculations associated with the total query text size.
Address that with several changes:
1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX.
The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long"
is 64 bits. We still need overflow guards on its use, but
this helps.
2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to
more than MaxAllocHugeSize. If it got that big, qtext_load_file
would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it.
Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset,
and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t.
3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit
arithmetic on all platforms. It appears possible that under duress
those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false
conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which
could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table
insertion.
Per report from Bruno da Silva. I'm not convinced that these
issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's
contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first
place. But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense,
and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties.

Security: CVE-2022-1552
Getting from get_raw_page() an all-zero page is considered as a valid
case by the buffer manager and it can happen for example when finding a
corrupted page with zero_damaged_pages enabled (using zero_damaged_pages
to look at corrupted pages happens), or after a crash when a relation
file is extended before any WAL for its new data is generated (before a
vacuum or autovacuum job comes in to do some cleanup).
However, all the functions of pageinspect, as of the index AMs (except
hash that has its own idea of new pages), heap, the FSM or the page
header have never worked with all-zero pages, causing various crashes
when going through the page internals.
This commit changes all the pageinspect functions to be compliant with
all-zero pages, where the choice is made to return NULL or no rows for
SRFs when finding a new page. get_raw_page() still works the same way,
returning a batch of zeros in the bytea of the page retrieved. A hard
error could be used but NULL, while more invasive, is useful when
scanning relation files in full to get a batch of results for a single
relation in one query. Tests are added for all the code paths
impacted.

postgres_fdw would push ORDER BY clauses to the remote side without
verifying that the sort operator is safe to ship. Moreover, it failed
to print a suitable USING clause if the sort operator isn't default
for the sort expression's type. The net result of this is that the
remote sort might not have anywhere near the semantics we expect,
which'd be disastrous for locally-performed merge joins in particular.
We addressed similar issues in the context of ORDER BY within an
aggregate function call in commit 7012b132d, but failed to notice
that query-level ORDER BY was broken. Thus, much of the necessary
logic already existed, but it requires refactoring to be usable

A couple of code paths use the special area on the page passed by the
function caller, expecting to find some data in it. However, feeding
an incorrect page can lead to out-of-bound reads when trying to access
the page special area (like a heap page that has no special area,
leading PageGetSpecialPointer() to grab a pointer outside the allocated
page).
The functions used for hash and btree indexes have some protection
already against that, while some other functions using a relation OID
as argument would make sure that the access method involved is correct,
but functions taking in input a raw page without knowing the relation
the page is attached to would run into problems.
This commit improves the set of checks used in the code paths of BRIN,
btree (including one check if a leaf page is found with a non-zero
level), GIN and GiST to verify that the page given in input has a
special area size that fits with each access method, which is done
though PageGetSpecialSize(), becore calling PageGetSpecialPointer().
The scope of the checks done is limited to work with pages that one
would pass after getting a block with get_raw_page(), as it is possible
to craft byteas that could bypass existing code paths. Having too many
checks would also impact the usability of pageinspect, as the existing
code is very useful to look at the content details in a corrupted page,
so the focus is really to avoid out-of-bound reads as this is never a
good thing even with functions whose execution is limited to
superusers.
The safest approach could be to rework the functions so as these fetch a
block using a relation OID and a block number, but there are also cases
where using a raw page is useful.
Tests are added to cover all the code paths that needed such checks, and
an error message for hash indexes is reworded to fit better with what
this commit adds.

This commit fixes a set of issues related to the use of the SQL
functions in this module when the caller is able to pass down raw page
data as input argument:
- The page size check was fuzzy in a couple of places, sometimes
looking after only a sub-range, but what we are looking for is an exact
match on BLCKSZ. After considering a few options here, I have settled
down to do a generalization of get_page_from_raw(). Most of the SQL
functions already used that, and this is not strictly required if not
accessing an 8-byte-wide value from a raw page, but this feels safer in
the long run for alignment-picky environment, particularly if a code
path begins to access such values. This also reduces the number of
strings that need to be translated.
- The BRIN function brin_page_items() uses a Relation but it did not
check the access method of the opened index, potentially leading to
crashes. All the other functions in need of a Relation already did
that.
- Some code paths could fail on elog(), but we should to use ereport()
for failures that can be triggered by the user.
Tests are added to stress all the cases that are fixed as of this
commit, with some junk raw pages (\set VERBOSITY ensures that this works
across all page sizes) and unexpected index types when functions open
relations.

If contrib/btree_gist is used to make a GIST index on a char(N)
(bpchar) column, and that column is retrieved via an index-only
scan, what came out had all trailing spaces removed. Since
that doesn't happen in any other kind of table scan, this is
clearly a bug. The cause is that gbt_bpchar_compress() strips
trailing spaces (using rtrim1) before a new index entry is made.
That was probably a good idea when this code was first written,
but since we invented index-only scans, it's not so good.
One answer could be to mark this opclass as incapable of index-only
scans. But to do so, we'd need an extension module version bump,
followed by manual action by DBAs to install the updated version
of btree_gist. And it's not really a desirable place to end up,
anyway.
Instead, let's fix the code by removing the unwanted space-stripping
action and adjusting the opclass's comparison logic to ignore
trailing spaces as bpchar normally does. This will not hinder
cases that work today, since index searches with this logic will
act the same whether trailing spaces are stored or not. It will
not by itself fix the problem of getting space-stripped results
from index-only scans, of course. Users who care about that can
REINDEX affected indexes after installing this update, to immediately
replace all improperly-truncated index entries. Otherwise, it can
be expected that the index's behavior will change incrementally as
old entries are replaced by new ones.

Commits fdd965d07 and 3cd9c3b92 tested CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY by
launching two separate pgbench runs concurrently. This was needed so
that only a single client thread would run CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY,
avoiding deadlock between two CICs. However, there's a better way,
which is to use an advisory lock to prevent concurrent CICs. That's
better in part because the test code is shorter and more readable, but
mostly because it automatically scales things to launch an appropriate
number of CICs relative to the number of INSERT transactions.
As committed, typically half to three-quarters of the CIC transactions

before, in a cluster having used CIC while having enabled prepared

occurrences; REINDEX CONCURRENTLY suffices. Fix this for future index

* Add to postgresImportForeignSchema() an option "import_generated" to

tables imported from a foreign server. The option is true by default.
The assumption seems reasonable, because that would make a query of the
postgres_fdw foreign table return values for the generated columns that
are consistent with the generated expression.
While here, fix another issue in postgresImportForeignSchema(): it tried
to include column generated expressions as column default expressions in
the foreign table definitions when the import_default option was enabled.
Per bug #16631 from Daniel Cherniy. Back-patch to v12 where generated
columns were added.

The error messages using the word "non-negative" are confusing
because it's ambiguous about whether it accepts zero or not.
This commit improves those error messages by replacing it with
less ambiguous word like "greater than zero" or
"greater than or equal to zero".
Also this commit added the note about the word "non-negative" to
the error message style guide, to help writing the new error messages.
When postgres_fdw option fetch_size was set to zero, previously
the error message "fetch_size requires a non-negative integer value"
was reported. This error message was outright buggy. Therefore
back-patch to all supported versions where such buggy error message
could be thrown.

As in 50371df26, this is a bad idea since the callback can't really
know what error is being thrown and thus whether or not it is safe
to attempt catalog accesses. Rather than pushing said accesses into
the mainline code where they'd usually be a waste of cycles, we can
look at the query's rangetable instead.
This change does mean that we'll be printing query aliases (if any
were used) rather than the table or column's true name. But that
doesn't seem like a bad thing: it's certainly a more useful definition
in self-join cases, for instance. In any case, it seems unlikely that
any applications would be depending on this detail, so it seems safe
to change.
Patch by me. Original complaint by Andres Freund; Bharath Rupireddy
noted the connection to conversion_error_callback.

For no obvious reason, isolationtester has always insisted that
session and step names be written with double quotes. This is
fairly tedious and does little for test readability, especially
since the names that people actually choose almost always look
like normal identifiers. Hence, let's tweak the lexer to allow
SQL-like identifiers not only double-quoted strings.
(They're SQL-like, not exactly SQL, because I didn't add any
case-folding logic. Also there's no provision for U&"..." names,
not that anyone's likely to care.)
There is one incompatibility introduced by this change: if you write
"foo""bar" with no space, that used to be taken as two identifiers,
but now it's just one identifier with an embedded quote mark.
I converted all the src/test/isolation/ specfiles to remove
unnecessary double quotes, but stopped there because my
eyes were glazing over already.

Previously, isolationtester displayed SQL query results using some
ad-hoc code that clearly hadn't had much effort expended on it.
Field values longer than 14 characters weren't separated from
the next field, and usually caused misalignment of the columns
too. Also there was no visual separation of a query's result
from subsequent isolationtester output. This made test result
files confusing and hard to read.
To improve matters, let's use libpq's PQprint() function. Although
that's long since unused by psql, it's still plenty good enough
for the purpose here.

We've long contended with isolation test results that aren't entirely
stable. Some test scripts insert long delays to try to force stable
results, which is not terribly desirable; but other erratic failure
modes remain, causing unrepeatable buildfarm failures. I've spent a
fair amount of time trying to solve this by improving the server-side
support code, without much success: that way is fundamentally unable
to cope with diffs that stem from chance ordering of arrival of
messages from different server processes.
We can improve matters on the client side, however, by annotating
the test scripts themselves to show the desired reporting order
of events that might occur in different orders. This patch adds
three types of annotations to deal with (a) test steps that might or
might not complete their waits before the isolationtester can see them
waiting; (b) test steps in different sessions that can legitimately
complete in either order; and (c) NOTIFY messages that might arrive
before or after the completion of a step in another session. We might
need more annotation types later, but this seems to be enough to deal
with the instabilities we've seen in the buildfarm. It also lets us
get rid of all the long delays that were previously used, cutting more
than a minute off the runtime of the isolation tests.
Back-patch to all supported branches, because the buildfarm
instabilities affect all the branches, and because it seems desirable
to keep isolationtester's capabilities the same across all branches
to simplify possible future back-patching of tests.

This is useful for developers to find out if an isolation spec is
over-engineered or if it needs more work by warning at the end of a
test run if a step is not used, generating a failure with extra diffs.
While on it, clean up all the specs which include steps not used in any
permutations to simplify them.
This is a backpatch of 989d23b and 06fdc4e, as it is becoming useful to
make all the branches consistent for an upcoming patch that will improve
the output generated by isolationtester.

If autovacuum comes along just after we fill table test_seg with
some data, it will update the stats to the point where we prefer
a plain indexscan over a bitmap scan, breaking the expected
output (as well as the point of the test case). To fix, just
force a bitmap scan to be chosen here.
This has evidently been wrong since commit de1d042f5. It's not
clear why we just recently saw any buildfarm failures due to it;
but prairiedog has failed twice on this test in the past week.
Hence, backpatch to v11 where this test case came in.
Commit 428b260f8 broke planning of cases where row marks are needed
(SELECT FOR UPDATE, etc) and one of the query's tables is a foreign
table that has regular table(s) as inheritance children. We got the
reverse case right, but apparently were thinking that foreign tables
couldn't be inheritance parents. Not so; so we need to be able to
add a CTID junk column while adding a new child, not only a wholerow
junk column.
Back-patch to v12 where the faulty code came in.

If a cross-partition UPDATE violates a constraint on the target partition,
and the columns in the new partition are in different physical order than
in the parent, the error message can reveal columns that the user does not
have SELECT permission on. A similar bug was fixed earlier in commit
804b6b6db4.
The cause of the bug is that the callers of the
ExecBuildSlotValueDescription() function got confused when constructing
the list of modified columns. If the tuple was routed from a parent, we
converted the tuple to the parent's format, but the list of modified
columns was grabbed directly from the child's RTE entry.
ExecUpdateLockMode() had a similar issue. That lead to confusion on which
columns are key columns, leading to wrong tuple lock being taken on tables
referenced by foreign keys, when a row is updated with INSERT ON CONFLICT
UPDATE. A new isolation test is added for that corner case.
With this patch, the ri_RangeTableIndex field is no longer set for
partitions that don't have an entry in the range table. Previously, it was
set to the RTE entry of the parent relation, but that was confusing.
NOTE: This modifies the ResultRelInfo struct, replacing the
ri_PartitionRoot field with ri_RootResultRelInfo. That's a bit risky to
backpatch, because it breaks any extensions accessing the field. The
change that ri_RangeTableIndex is not set for partitions could potentially
break extensions, too. The ResultRelInfos are visible to FDWs at least,
and this patch required small changes to postgres_fdw. Nevertheless, this
seem like the least bad option. I don't think these fields widely used in
extensions; I don't think there are FDWs out there that uses the FDW
"direct update" API, other than postgres_fdw. If there is, you will get a
compilation error, so hopefully it is caught quickly.
Backpatch to 11, where support for both cross-partition UPDATEs, and unique
indexes on partitioned tables, were added.

Security: CVE-2021-3393
The ExecutorEnd hook is invoked in a context that could be quite
long-lived, not the executor's own per-query context as I think
we were sort of assuming. Thus, any cruft generated while producing
the EXPLAIN output could accumulate over multiple queries. This can
result in spectacular leakage if log_nested_statements is on, and
even without that I'm surprised nobody complained before.
To fix, just switch into the executor's context so that anything we
allocate will be released when standard_ExecutorEnd frees the executor
state. We might as well nuke the code's retail pfree of the explain
output string, too; that's laughably inadequate to the need.

When reporting connection errors, we might show a database name in the
message that's not the one we actually tried to connect to, if the
database was taken from libpq defaults instead of from user parameters.
Fix such error messages to use PQdb(), which reports the correct name.
(But, per commit 2930c05634, make sure not to try to print NULL.)

Previously, pull_varnos() took the relids of a PlaceHolderVar as being
equal to the relids in its contents, but that fails to account for the
possibility that we have to postpone evaluation of the PHV due to outer
joins. This could result in a malformed plan. The known cases end up
triggering the "failed to assign all NestLoopParams to plan nodes"
sanity check in createplan.c, but other symptoms may be possible.
The right value to use is the join level we actually intend to evaluate
the PHV at. We can get that from the ph_eval_at field of the associated
PlaceHolderInfo. However, there are some places that call pull_varnos()
before the PlaceHolderInfos have been created; in that case, fall back
to the conservative assumption that the PHV will be evaluated at its
syntactic level. (In principle this might result in missing some legal
optimization, but I'm not aware of any cases where it's an issue in
practice.) Things are also a bit ticklish for calls occurring during
deconstruct_jointree(), but AFAICS the ph_eval_at fields should have
reached their final values by the time we need them.
The main problem in making this work is that pull_varnos() has no
way to get at the PlaceHolderInfos. We can fix that easily, if a
bit tediously, in HEAD by passing it the planner "root" pointer.
In the back branches that'd cause an unacceptable API/ABI break for
extensions, so leave the existing entry points alone and add new ones
with the additional parameter. (If an old entry point is called and
encounters a PHV, it'll fall back to using the syntactic level,
again possibly missing some valid optimization.)
Back-patch to v12. The computation is surely also wrong before that,
but it appears that we cannot reach a bad plan thanks to join order
restrictions imposed on the subquery that the PlaceHolderVar came from.
The error only became reachable when commit 4be058fe9 allowed trivial
subqueries to be collapsed out completely, eliminating their join order
restrictions.
