amcheck expects at least hikey to always exist on leaf page even if it is
deleted page. But replica reinitializes page during replay of page deletion,
causing deleted page to have no items. Thus, replay of page deletion can
cause an error in concurrent amcheck run.
This commit relaxes amcheck expectation making it tolerate deleted page with
no items.

Visual Studio 2015 and later versions should still be able to do the same
as Visual Studio 2012, but the declaration of locale_name is missing in
_locale_t, causing the code compilation to fail, hence this falls back
instead on to enumerating all system locales by using EnumSystemLocalesEx
to find the required locale name. If the input argument is in Unix-style

Writing a trailing semicolon in a macro is almost never the right thing,
because you almost always want to write a semicolon after each macro
call instead. (Even if there was some reason to prefer not to, pgindent
would probably make a hash of code formatted that way; so within PG the
rule should basically be "don't do it".) Thus, if we have a semi inside
the macro, the compiler sees "something;;". Much of the time the extra
empty statement is harmless, but it could lead to mysterious syntax
errors at call sites. In perhaps an overabundance of neatnik-ism, let's

On further reflection, code comments added by commit b0229f26 slightly
misrepresented how we determine the oldest bpto.xact for the index.
btvacuumpage() does not treat the bpto.xact of a page that it put in the
FSM as a candidate to be the oldest deleted page (the delete-marked page
that has the oldest bpto.xact XID among all pages encountered).
The definition of a deleted page for the purposes of the bpto.xact
calculation is different from the definition used by the bulk delete
statistics. The bulk delete statistics don't distinguish between pages
that were deleted by the current VACUUM, pages deleted by a previous
VACUUM operation but not yet recyclable/reusable, and pages that are
reusable (though reusable pages are counted separately).
Backpatch: 11-, just like commit b0229f26.
The logic for determining how many nbtree pages in an index are deleted
pages sometimes undercounted pages. Pages that were deleted by the
current VACUUM operation (as opposed to some previous VACUUM operation
whose deleted pages have yet to be reused) were sometimes overlooked.
The final count is exposed to users through VACUUM VERBOSE's "%u index
pages have been deleted" output.
btvacuumpage() avoided double-counting when _bt_pagedel() deleted more
than one page by assuming that only one page was deleted, and that the
additional deleted pages would get picked up during a future call to
btvacuumpage() by the same VACUUM operation. _bt_pagedel() can
legitimately delete pages that the btvacuumscan() scan will not visit
again, though, so that assumption was slightly faulty.
Fix the accounting by teaching _bt_pagedel() about its caller's
requirements. It now only reports on pages that it knows btvacuumscan()
won't visit again (including the current btvacuumpage() page), so
everything works out in the end.
This bug has been around forever. Only backpatch to v11, though, to
keep _bt_pagedel() is sync on the branches that have today's bugfix
commit b0229f26da. Note that this commit changes the signature of
_bt_pagedel(), just like commit b0229f26da.

Commit 857f9c36cd (which taught nbtree VACUUM to skip a scan of the
index from btcleanup in situations where it doesn't seem worth it) made
VACUUM maintain the oldest btpo.xact among all deleted pages for the
index as a whole. It failed to handle all the details surrounding pages
that are deleted by the current VACUUM operation correctly (though pages
deleted by some previous VACUUM operation were processed correctly).
The most immediate problem was that the special area of the page was
examined without a buffer pin at one point. More fundamentally, the
handling failed to account for the full range of _bt_pagedel()
behaviors. For example, _bt_pagedel() sometimes deletes internal pages
in passing, as part of deleting an entire subtree with btvacuumpage()
caller's page as the leaf level page. The original leaf page passed to
_bt_pagedel() might not be the page that it deletes first in cases where
deletion can take place.
It's unclear how disruptive this bug may have been, or what symptoms
users might want to look out for. The issue was spotted during
unrelated code review.
To fix, push down the logic for maintaining the oldest btpo.xact to
_bt_pagedel(). btvacuumpage() is now responsible for pages that were
fully deleted by a previous VACUUM operation, while _bt_pagedel() is now
responsible for pages that were deleted by the current VACUUM operation
(this includes half-dead pages from a previous interrupted VACUUM
operation that become fully deleted in _bt_pagedel()). Note that
_bt_pagedel() should never encounter an existing deleted page.
This commit theoretically breaks the ABI of a stable release by changing
the signature of _bt_pagedel(). However, if any third party extension
is actually affected by this, then it must already be completely broken
(since there are numerous assumptions made in _bt_pagedel() that cannot
be met outside of VACUUM). It seems highly unlikely that such an
extension actually exists, in any case.

Queries such as '!(foo<->bar)' failed to find matching rows when
implemented as a GiST or GIN index search. That's because of
failing to handle phrase searches as tri-valued when considering
a query without any position information for the target tsvector.
We can only say that the phrase operator might match, not that it
does match; and therefore its NOT also might match. The previous
coding incorrectly inverted the approximate phrase result to
decide that there was certainly no match.
To fix, we need to make TS_phrase_execute return a real ternary result,
and then bubble that up accurately in TS_execute. As long as we have
to do that anyway, we can simplify the baroque things TS_phrase_execute
was doing internally to manage tri-valued searching with only a bool
as explicit result.
For now, I left the externally-visible result of TS_execute as a plain
bool. There do not appear to be any outside callers that need to
distinguish a three-way result, given that they passed in a flag
saying what to do in the absence of position data. This might need
to change someday, but we wouldn't want to back-patch such a change.
Although tsginidx.c has its own TS_execute_ternary implementation for
use at upper index levels, that sadly managed to get this case wrong
as well :-(. Fixing it is a lot easier fortunately.

CreateRole() was passing a Value node, not a RoleSpec node, for the
newly-created role name when adding the role as a member of existing
roles for the IN ROLE syntax.
This mistake went unnoticed because the node in question is used only
for error messages and is not accessed on non-error paths.
In older pg versions (such as 9.5 where this was found), this results
in an "unexpected node type" error in place of the real error. That
node type check was removed at some point, after which the code would
accidentally fail to fail on 64-bit platforms (on which accessing the
Value node as if it were a RoleSpec would be mostly harmless) or give
an "unexpected role type" error on 32-bit platforms.

assertion just in case.

Commit 32ff26911 introduced use of rank() into the triggers view to
calculate the spec-mandated action_order column. As written, this
prevents query constraints on the table-name column from being pushed
below the window aggregate step. That's bad for performance of this
typical usage pattern, since the view now has to be evaluated for all
tables not just the one(s) the user wants to see. It's also the cause
of some recent buildfarm failures, in which trying to evaluate the view
rows for triggers in process of being dropped resulted in "cache lookup
failed for function NNN" errors. Those rows aren't of interest to the
test script doing the query, but the filter that would eliminate them
is being applied too late. None of this happened before the rank()
call was there, so it's a regression compared to v10 and before.
We can improve matters by changing the rank() call so that instead of
partitioning by OIDs, it partitions by nspname and relname, casting
those to sql_identifier so that they match the respective view output
columns exactly. The planner has enough intelligence to know that
constraints on partitioning columns are safe to push down, so this
eliminates the performance problem and the regression test failure
risk. We could make the other partitioning columns match view outputs
as well, but it'd be more complicated and the performance benefits
are questionable.
Side note: as this stands, the planner will push down constraints on
event_object_table and trigger_schema, but not on event_object_schema,
because it checks for ressortgroupref matches not expression
equivalence. That might be worth improving someday, but it's not
necessary to fix the immediate concern.
Back-patch to v11 where the rank() call was added. Ordinarily we'd not
change information_schema in released branches, but the test failure has
been seen in v12 and presumably could happen in v11 as well, so we need
to do this to keep the buildfarm happy. The change is harmless so far
as users are concerned. Some might wish to apply it to existing
installations if performance of this type of query is of concern,
but those who don't are no worse off.

catalog incompatibility that would really require a re-initdb).

78ea8b5 has fixed an issue related to the recycling of WAL segments on
standbys depending on archive_mode. However, it has introduced a
regression with the handling of WAL segments ready to be archived during
crash recovery, causing those files to be recycled without getting
archived.
This commit fixes the regression by tracking in shared memory if a live
cluster is either in crash recovery or archive recovery as the handling
of WAL segments ready to be archived is different in both cases (those
WAL segments should not be removed during crash recovery), and by using
this new shared memory state to decide if a segment can be recycled or
not. Previously, it was not possible to know if a cluster was in crash
recovery or archive recovery as the shared state was able to track only
if recovery was happening or not, leading to the problem.
A set of TAP tests is added to close the gap here, making sure that WAL
segments ready to be archived are correctly handled when a cluster is in
archive or crash recovery with archive_mode set to "on" or "always", for
both standby and primary.

In a9c35cf85c I changed ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() to dynamically
allocate the FunctionCallInfo used to call the SRF. Unfortunately I
did not account for the fact that the surrounding memory context has
query lifetime, leading to a leak till the end of the query.
In most cases the leak is fairly inconsequential, but if the
FunctionScan is done many times in the query, the leak can add
up. This happens e.g. if the function scan is on the inner side of a
nested loop, due to a lateral join.
EXPLAIN SELECT sum(f) FROM generate_series(1, 100000000) g(i), generate_series(i, i+1) f;
quickly shows the leak.
Instead of explicitly freeing the FunctionCallInfo it seems better to
make sure all the per-set temporary state in
ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() is cleaned up wholesale. Currently
that's probably just the FunctionCallInfo allocation, but since
there's some initialization work, and since there's already an
appropriate context, this seems like a more robust approach.

index.c supposed that it could just use a PG_TRY block to clean up the
state associated with an active REINDEX operation. However, that code
doesn't run if we do a FATAL exit --- for example, due to a SIGTERM
shutdown signal --- while the REINDEX is happening. And that state does
get consulted during catalog accesses, which makes it problematic if we
do any catalog accesses during shutdown --- for example, to clean up any
temp tables created in the session.
If this combination of circumstances occurred, we could find ourselves
trying to access already-freed memory. In debug builds that'd fairly
reliably cause an assertion failure. In production we might often
get away with it, but with some bad luck it could cause a core dump.
Another possible bad outcome is an erroneous conclusion that an
index-to-be-accessed is being reindexed; but it looks like that would
be unlikely to have any consequences worse than failing to drop temp
tables right away. (They'd still get dropped by the next session that
uses that temp schema.)
To fix, get rid of the use of PG_TRY here, and instead hook into
the transaction abort mechanisms to clean up reindex state.

Working on commit 1c455078b led me to check through FunctionCallInvoke
call sites to see if every one was being honest about (a) making sure
that fcinfo.isnull is initially false, and (b) checking its state after
the call. Sure enough, I found some violations.
The main one is that finalize_partialaggregate re-used serialfn_fcinfo
without resetting isnull, even though it clearly intends to cater for
serialfns that return NULL. There would only be an issue with a
non-strict serialfn, since it's unlikely that a serialfn would return
NULL for non-null input. We have no non-strict serialfns in core, and
there may be none in the wild either, which would account for the lack
of complaints. Still, it's clearly wrong, so back-patch that fix to
9.6 where finalize_partialaggregate was introduced.
Also, arrayfuncs.c and rowtypes.c contained various callers that were
not bothering to check for result nulls. While what's being called is
a comparison or hash function that probably *shouldn't* return null,
that's a lousy excuse for not having any check at all. There are
existing places that just Assert(!fcinfo->isnull) in comparable
situations, so I added that to the places that were calling btree
comparison or hash support functions. In the places calling
boolean-returning equality functions, it's quite cheap to have them
treat isnull as FALSE, so make those places do that. Also remove some
"locfcinfo->isnull = false" assignments that are unnecessary given the
assumption that no previous call returned null. These changes seem like
mostly neatnik-ism or debugging support, so I didn't back-patch.
When a partition is detached, any triggers that had been cloned from its

This resulted in triggers that could not be dropped because they

Moreover the table can no longer be re-attached to its parent, because

The former is a bug introduced in commit 86f575948c. (The latter is

SyncRepGetSyncStandbysPriority. This apparently is due to failing to
consider the possibility that the sync_standby_priority values in
shared memory might be inconsistent; but they will be whenever only
some of the walsenders have updated their values after a change in
the synchronous_standby_names setting. That function is vastly too
complex for what it does, anyway, so rewriting it seems better than
trying to apply a band-aid fix.
Furthermore, the API of SyncRepGetSyncStandbys is broken by design:
it returns a list of WalSnd array indexes, but there is nothing
guaranteeing that the contents of the WalSnd array remain stable.
Thus, if some walsender exits and then a new walsender process
takes over that WalSnd array slot, a caller might make use of
WAL position data that it should not, potentially leading to
incorrect decisions about whether to release transactions that
are waiting for synchronous commit.
To fix, replace SyncRepGetSyncStandbys with a new function
SyncRepGetCandidateStandbys that copies all the required data
from shared memory while holding the relevant mutexes. If the
associated walsender process then exits, this data is still safe to
make release decisions with, since we know that that much WAL *was*
sent to a valid standby server. This incidentally means that we no
longer need to treat sync_standby_priority as protected by the
SyncRepLock rather than the per-walsender mutex.
SyncRepGetSyncStandbys is no longer used by the core code, so remove
it entirely in HEAD. However, it seems possible that external code is
relying on that function, so do not remove it from the back branches.
Instead, just remove the known-incorrect Assert. When the bug occurs,
the function will return a too-short list, which callers should treat
as meaning there are not enough sync standbys, which seems like a
reasonably safe fallback until the inconsistent state is resolved.
Moreover it's bug-compatible with what has been happening in non-assert
builds. We cannot do anything about the walsender-replacement race
condition without an API/ABI break.
The bogus assertion exists back to 9.6, but 9.6 is sufficiently
different from the later branches that the patch doesn't apply at all.
I chose to just remove the bogus assertion in 9.6, feeling that the
probability of a bad outcome from the walsender-replacement race
condition is too low to justify rewriting the whole patch for 9.6.

In some corner cases, this could also lead to corrupted values being
included in the tuple.
Users who are concerned that they are affected by this should first
upgrade and then perform a base backup of their database and restore onto
an off-line server. They should then query each table with generated
columns to ensure there are no rows where the generated expression does
not match a newly calculated version of the GENERATED ALWAYS expression.
If no crashes occur and no rows are returned then you're not affected.
Fixes bug #16369.

Backpatch-through: 12 (where GENERATED ALWAYS columns were added.)
Apparently in some language versions of Visual Studio nmake outputs some
material after the version number and before the end of the line. This
has been seen in Chinese versions. Therefore, we no longer demand that
the version string comes at the end of a line.
Per complaint from Cuiping Lin.
Backpatch to all live branches.
The result of the query used to retrieve the WAL segment size from the
backend was not getting freed in two code paths. Both pg_basebackup and
pg_receivewal exit immediately if a failure happened on this query, so
this was not an actual problem, but it could be an issue if this code
gets used for other tools in different ways, be they future tools in
this code tree or external, existing, ones.
Oversight in commit fc49e24, so backpatch down to 11.

Backpatch-through: 11
fixup_whole_row_references() did the wrong thing with a dropped column,
resulting in a commit-time warning about a cache reference leak.
I (tgl) added a test case exercising this, but back-patched the test
only as far as v10; the patch didn't apply cleanly to 9.6 and it
didn't seem worth the trouble to adapt it. The bug is pretty old
though, so apply the code change all the way back.
Michael Luo, with cosmetic improvements by me
