Instead of having a separate array/hash for each resource kind, use a
single array and hash to hold all kinds of resources. This makes it
possible to introduce new resource "kinds" without having to modify
the ResourceOwnerData struct. In particular, this makes it possible
for extensions to register custom resource kinds.
The old approach was to have a small array of resources of each kind,
and if it fills up, switch to a hash table. The new approach also uses
an array and a hash, but now the array and the hash are used at the
same time. The array is used to hold the recently added resources, and
when it fills up, they are moved to the hash. This keeps the access to
recent entries fast, even when there are a lot of long-held resources.
All the resource-specific ResourceOwnerEnlarge*(),
ResourceOwnerRemember*(), and ResourceOwnerForget*() functions have
been replaced with three generic functions that take resource kind as
argument. For convenience, we still define resource-specific wrapper
macros around the generic functions with the old names, but they are
now defined in the source files that use those resource kinds.
The release callback no longer needs to call ResourceOwnerForget on
the resource being released. ResourceOwnerRelease unregisters the
resource from the owner before calling the callback. That needed some
changes in bufmgr.c and some other files, where releasing the
resources previously always called ResourceOwnerForget.
Each resource kind specifies a release priority, and
ResourceOwnerReleaseAll releases the resources in priority order. To
make that possible, we have to restrict what you can do between
phases. After calling ResourceOwnerRelease(), you are no longer
allowed to remember any more resources in it or to forget any
previously remembered resources by calling ResourceOwnerForget. There
was one case where that was done previously. At subtransaction commit,
AtEOSubXact_Inval() would handle the invalidation messages and call
RelationFlushRelation(), which temporarily increased the reference
count on the relation being flushed. We now switch to the parent
subtransaction's resource owner before calling AtEOSubXact_Inval(), so
that there is a valid ResourceOwner to temporarily hold that relcache
reference.
Other end-of-xact routines make similar calls to AtEOXact_Inval()
between release phases, but I didn't see any regression test failures
from those, so I'm not sure if they could reach a codepath that needs
remembering extra resources.
There were two exceptions to how the resource leak WARNINGs on commit
were printed previously: llvmjit silently released the context without
printing the warning, and a leaked buffer io triggered a PANIC. Now
everything prints a WARNING, including those cases.

These are functions where a lot of things happen between the
ResourceOwnerEnlarge and ResourceOwnerRemember calls. It's important
that there are no unrelated ResourceOwnerRemember calls in the code in
between, otherwise the reserved entry might be used up by the
intervening ResourceOwnerRemember and not be available at the intended
ResourceOwnerRemember call anymore. I don't see any bugs here, but the
longer the code path between the calls is, the harder it is to verify.
In bufmgr.c, there is a function similar to ResourceOwnerEnlarge,
ReservePrivateRefCountEntry(), to ensure that the private refcount
array has enough space. The ReservePrivateRefCountEntry() calls were
made at different places than the ResourceOwnerEnlargeBuffers()
calls. Move the ResourceOwnerEnlargeBuffers() and
ReservePrivateRefCountEntry() calls together for consistency.

false_positive_rate is a parameter that can be set with the bloom
opclass in BRIN, and setting it to a value of exactly 0.25 would trigger
an assertion in the first INSERT done on the index with value set.
The assertion changed here relied on BLOOM_{MIN|MAX}_FALSE_POSITIVE_RATE
that are somewhat arbitrary values, and specifying an out-of-range value
would also trigger a failure when defining such an index. So, as-is,
the assertion was just doubling on the min-max check of the reloption.

f0efa5aec introduced the concept of "read-only" StringInfos which makes
use of an existing, possibly not NUL terminated, buffer.
Here we adjust two places that make use of StringInfos to receive data
to avoid using appendBinaryStringInfo() in cases where a NUL termination
character is not required. This saves a possible palloc() and saves
having to needlessly memcpy() from one buffer to another.
Here we adjust two places which were using appendBinaryStringInfo().
Neither of these cases seem particularly performance-critical. In the
case of XLogWalRcvProcessMsg(), the appendBinaryStringInfo() was only
appending 24 bytes. The change made here does mean that we can get rid
of the incoming_message global variable and make that local instead.

array_set_element() and related functions allow an array to be
enlarged by assigning to subscripts outside the current array bounds.
While these places were careful to check that the new bounds are
allowable, they neglected to consider the risk of integer overflow
in computing the new bounds. In edge cases, we could compute new
bounds that are invalid but get past the subsequent checks,
allowing bad things to happen. Memory stomps that are potentially
exploitable for arbitrary code execution are possible, and so is
disclosure of server memory.
To fix, perform the hazardous computations using overflow-detecting
arithmetic routines, which fortunately exist in all still-supported
branches.
The test cases added for this generate (after patching) errors that
mention the value of MaxArraySize, which is platform-dependent.

transformAggregateCall() captures the datatypes of the aggregate's
arguments immediately to construct the Aggref.aggargtypes list.
This seems reasonable because the arguments have already been
transformed --- but there is an edge case where they haven't been.
Specifically, if we have an unknown-type literal in an ANY argument
position, nothing will have been done with it earlier. But if we
also have DISTINCT, then addTargetToGroupList() converts the literal
to "text" type, resulting in the aggargtypes list not matching the
actual runtime type of the argument. The end result is that the
aggregate tries to interpret a "text" value as being of type
"unknown", that is a zero-terminated C string. If the text value
contains no zero bytes, this could result in disclosure of server
memory following the text literal value.
To fix, move the collection of the aggargtypes list to the end
of transformAggregateCall(), after DISTINCT has been handled.
This requires slightly more code, but not a great deal.

A PostgreSQL release tarball contains a number of prebuilt files, in
particular files produced by bison, flex, perl, and well as html and
man documentation. We have done this consistent with established
practice at the time to not require these tools for building from a
tarball. Some of these tools were hard to get, or get the right
version of, from time to time, and shipping the prebuilt output was a
convenience to users.
Now this has at least two problems:
One, we have to make the build system(s) work in two modes: Building
from a git checkout and building from a tarball. This is pretty
complicated, but it works so far for autoconf/make. It does not
currently work for meson; you can currently only build with meson from
a git checkout. Making meson builds work from a tarball seems very
difficult or impossible. One particular problem is that since meson
requires a separate build directory, we cannot make the build update
files like gram.h in the source tree. So if you were to build from a
tarball and update gram.y, you will have a gram.h in the source tree
and one in the build tree, but the way things work is that the
compiler will always use the one in the source tree. So you cannot,
for example, make any gram.y changes when building from a tarball.
This seems impossible to fix in a non-horrible way.
Second, there is increased interest nowadays in precisely tracking the
origin of software. We can reasonably track contributions into the
git tree, and users can reasonably track the path from a tarball to
packages and downloads and installs. But what happens between the git
tree and the tarball is obscure and in some cases non-reproducible.
The solution for both of these issues is to get rid of the step that
adds prebuilt files to the tarball. The tarball now only contains
what is in the git tree (*). Getting the additional build
dependencies is no longer a problem nowadays, and the complications to
keep these dual build modes working are significant. And of course we
want to get the meson build system working universally.
This commit removes the make distprep target altogether. The make
dist target continues to do its job, it just doesn't call distprep
anymore.
(*) - The tarball also contains the INSTALL file that is built at make
dist time, but not by distprep. This is unchanged for now.
The make maintainer-clean target, whose job it is to remove the
prebuilt files in addition to what make distclean does, is now just an
alias to make distprep. (In practice, it is probably obsolete given
that git clean is available.)
The following programs are now hard build requirements in configure
(they were already required by meson.build):
- bison
- flex
- perl

Debian recently decided to split out a bunch of "obsolete" timezone

default. One of these zone names is Pacific/Enderbury, and that
breaks our regression tests (on --with-system-tzdata builds)

Pacific/Enderbury got renamed to Pacific/Kanton in tzdata 2021b,
so that in distros that still have this entry it's just a symlink
to Pacific/Kanton anyway. So one answer would be to redefine PHOT
as Pacific/Kanton. However, then things would fail if the
installed tzdata predates 2021b, which is recent enough that that
seems like a real problem.
Instead, let's just remove PHOT from the default list. That seems
likely to affect nobody in the real world, because (a) it was an
abbreviation that the tzdb crew made up in the first place, with
no evidence of real-world usage, and (b) the total human population
of the Phoenix Islands is less than two dozen persons, per Wikipedia.
If anyone does use this zone abbreviation they can easily put it back
via a custom abbreviations file.

Make sure that infinite values in date/timestamp columns are treated as
if in infinite distance. Infinite values should not be merged with other
values, leaving them as outliers. The code however returned distance 0
in this case, so that infinite values were merged first. While this does
not break the index (i.e. it still produces correct query results), it
may make it much less efficient.
We don't need explicit handling of infinite date/timestamp values when
calculating distances, because those values are represented as extreme
but regular values (e.g. INT64_MIN/MAX for the timestamp type).
We don't need an exact distance, just a value that is much larger than

The regression test queries a value in the "gap" and checks the range

This only affects minmax-multi indexes on timestamp/date columns with

When calculating the distance between date values, make sure to subtract
them in the right order, i.e. (larger - smaller).
The distance is used to determine which values to merge, and is expected
to be a positive value. The code unfortunately did the subtraction in
the opposite order, i.e. (smaller - larger), thus producing negative
values and merging values the most distant values first.
The resulting index is correct (i.e. produces correct results), but may
be significantly less efficient. This affects all minmax-multi indexes
on date columns.

When calculating distances for timestamp values for BRIN minmax-multi
indexes, we need to be careful about overflows for extreme values. If
the value overflows into a negative value, the index may be inefficient.
The new regression test checks this for the timestamp type by adding a
table with enough values to force range compaction/merging. The values
are close to min/max, which means a risk of overflow.
Fixed by converting the int64 values to double first, before calculating
the distance. This prevents the overflow. We may lose some precision, of
course, but that's good enough. In the worst case we build a slightly
less efficient index, but for large distances this won't matter.
This only affects minmax-multi indexes on timestamp columns, with ranges
containing values sufficiently distant to cause an overflow. That seems
like a fairly rare case in practice.

Two attributes related to checkpointer statistics are removed in this
commit:
- buffers_backend, that counts the number of buffers written directly by
a backend.
- buffers_backend_fsync, that counts the number of times a backend had
to do fsync() by its own.
These are actually not checkpointer properties but backend properties.
Also, pg_stat_io provides a more accurate and equivalent report of these

writes and fsyncs, so storing them in pg_stat_checkpointer was

f0efa5aec added initReadOnlyStringInfo to allow a StringInfo to be
initialized from an existing buffer and also relaxed the requirement
that a StringInfo's buffer must be NUL terminated at data[len]. Now
that we have that, there's no need for these aggregate deserial
functions to use appendBinaryStringInfo() as that rather wastefully
palloc'd a new buffer and memcpy'd in the bytea's buffer. Instead, we can
just use the bytea's buffer and point the StringInfo directly to that
using the new initializer function.
In Amdahl's law, this speeds up the serial portion of parallel
aggregates and makes sum(numeric), avg(numeric), var_pop(numeric),
var_samp(numeric), variance(numeric), stddev_pop(numeric),
stddev_samp(numeric), stddev(numeric), array_agg(anyarray),

Since C99, there can be a trailing comma after the last value in an
enum definition. A lot of new code has been introducing this style on
the fly. Some new patches are now taking an inconsistent approach to
this. Some add the last comma on the fly if they add a new last
value, some are trying to preserve the existing style in each place,
some are even dropping the last comma if there was one. We could
nudge this all in a consistent direction if we just add the trailing
commas everywhere once.
I omitted a few places where there was a fixed "last" value that will
always stay last. I also skipped the header files of libpq and ecpg,
in case people want to use those with older compilers. There were
also a small number of cases where the enum type wasn't used anywhere
(but the enum values were), which ended up confusing pgindent a bit,
so I left those alone.

There were various places in our codebase which conjured up a StringInfo
by manually assigning the StringInfo fields and setting the data field
to point to some existing buffer. There wasn't much consistency here as
to what fields like maxlen got set to and in one location we didn't
correctly ensure that the buffer was correctly NUL terminated at len
bytes, as per what was documented as required in stringinfo.h
Here we introduce 2 new functions to initialize StringInfos. One allows
callers to initialize a StringInfo passing along a buffer that is
already allocated by palloc. Here the StringInfo code uses this buffer
directly rather than doing any memcpying into a new allocation. Having
this as a function allows us to verify the buffer is correctly NUL
terminated. StringInfos initialized this way can be appended to and
reset just like any other normal StringInfo.
The other new initialization function also accepts an existing buffer,
but the given buffer does not need to be a pointer to a palloc'd chunk.
This buffer could be a pointer pointing partway into some palloc'd chunk
or may not even be palloc'd at all. StringInfos initialized this way
are deemed as "read-only". This means that it's not possible to
append to them or reset them.
For the latter of the two new initialization functions mentioned above,
we relax the requirement that the data buffer must be NUL terminated.
Relaxing this requirement is convenient in a few places as it can save
us from having to allocate an entire new buffer just to add the NUL
terminator or save us from having to temporarily add a NUL only to have to
put the original char back again later.
Incompatibility note:
Here we also forego adding the NUL in a few places where it does not
seem to be required. These locations are passing the given StringInfo
into a type's receive function. It does not seem like any of our
built-in receive functions require this, but perhaps there's some UDT
out there in the wild which does require this. It is likely worthy of
a mention in the release notes that a UDT's receive function mustn't rely
on the input StringInfo being NUL terminated.

Currently, expand_single_inheritance_child() doesn't reset
perminfoindex in a plain-inheritance parent's child RTE, because
prior to 387f9ed0a0, the executor would use the first child RTE to

belonging to the parent's original ("root") RTE.
In 387f9ed0a0, we changed things so that the executor can now use the

While reading information from the old cluster, a list of logical
slots is fetched. At the later part of upgrading, pg_upgrade revisits the
list and restores slots by executing pg_create_logical_replication_slot()
on the new cluster. Migration of logical replication slots is only
supported when the old cluster is version 17.0 or later.
If the old node has invalid slots or slots with unconsumed WAL records,
the pg_upgrade fails. These checks are needed to prevent data loss.
The significant advantage of this commit is that it makes it easy to
continue logical replication even after upgrading the publisher node.
Previously, pg_upgrade allowed copying publications to a new node. With
this patch, adjusting the connection string to the new publisher will
cause the apply worker on the subscriber to connect to the new publisher
automatically. This enables seamless continuation of logical replication,

The Self Join Elimination (SJE) feature removes an inner join of a plain table
to itself in the query tree if is proved that the join can be replaced with
a scan without impacting the query result. Self join and inner relation are
replaced with the outer in query, equivalence classes, and planner info
structures. Also, inner restrictlist moves to the outer one with removing
duplicated clauses. Thus, this optimization reduces the length of the range
table list (this especially makes sense for partitioned relations), reduces
the number of restriction clauses === selectivity estimations, and potentially
can improve total planner prediction for the query.
The SJE proof is based on innerrel_is_unique machinery.
We can remove a self-join when for each outer row:
1. At most one inner row matches the join clause.
2. Each matched inner row must be (physically) the same row as the outer one.
In this patch we use the next approach to identify a self-join:
1. Collect all merge-joinable join quals which look like a.x = b.x
2. Add to the list above the baseretrictinfo of the inner table.
3. Check innerrel_is_unique() for the qual list. If it returns false, skip
this pair of joining tables.
4. Check uniqueness, proved by the baserestrictinfo clauses. To prove
the possibility of self-join elimination inner and outer clauses must have
an exact match.
The relation replacement procedure is not trivial and it is partly combined
with the one, used to remove useless left joins. Tests, covering this feature,
were added to join.sql. Some regression tests changed due to self-join removal
logic.

When an UPDATE/DELETE/MERGE's target table is an old-style
inheritance tree, it's possible for the parent to get excluded
from the plan while some children are not. (I believe this is
only possible if we can prove that a CHECK ... NO INHERIT
constraint on the parent contradicts the query WHERE clause,
so it's a very unusual case.) In such a case, ExecInitModifyTable
mistakenly concluded that the first surviving child is the target
table, leading to at least two bugs:
1. The wrong table's statement-level triggers would get fired.
2. In v16 and up, it was possible to fail with "invalid perminfoindex
0 in RTE with relid nnnn" due to the child RTE not having permissions
data included in the query plan. This was hard to reproduce reliably
because it did not occur unless the update triggered some non-HOT
index updates.
In v14 and up, this is easy to fix by defining ModifyTable.rootRelation
to be the parent RTE in plain inheritance as well as partitioned cases.
While the wrong-triggers bug also appears in older branches, the
relevant code in both the planner and executor is quite a bit
different, so it would take a good deal of effort to develop and
test a suitable patch. Given the lack of field complaints about the
trigger issue, I'll desist for now. (Patching v11 for this seems
unwise anyway, given that it will have no more releases after next
month.)

numeric names but are nevertheless not possible names for a

that shouldn't be there, or the value is actually zero, or because
the value is too large to represent as an OID.
In those cases, the directory would previously have made it into
the list of tablespaceinfo objects and no longer will. Thus, base
backups will now ignore such directories, instead of treating them
as legitimate tablespace directories. Similarly, if entries for
such tablespaces occur in a tablespace_map file, they will now
be rejected as erroneous, instead of being honored.
This is infrastructure for future work that wants to be able to

Instead of returning the number of characters in the RelFileNumber,
return the RelFileNumber itself. Continue to return the fork number,
as before, and additionally return the segment number.
parse_filename_for_nontemp_relation now rejects a RelFileNumber or
segment number that begins with a leading zero. Before, we accepted
such cases as relation filenames, but if we continued to do so after
this change, the function might return the same values for two
different files (e.g. 1234.5 and 001234.5 or 1234.005) which could be
annoying for callers. Since we don't actually ever generate filenames
with leading zeroes in the names, any such files that we find must
have been created by something other than PostgreSQL, and it is
therefore reasonable to treat them as non-relation files.

Previously, ALTER SYSTEM failed if the target GUC wasn't present in
the session's GUC hashtable. That is a reasonable behavior for core
(single-part) GUC names, and for custom GUCs for which we have loaded
an extension that's reserved the prefix. But it's unnecessarily
restrictive otherwise, and it also causes inconsistent behavior:
you can "ALTER SYSTEM SET foo.bar" only if you did "SET foo.bar"
earlier in the session. That's fairly silly.
Hence, refactor things so that we can execute ALTER SYSTEM even
if the variable doesn't have a GUC hashtable entry, as long as the
name meets the custom-variable naming requirements and does not
have a reserved prefix. (It's safe to do this even if the
variable belongs to an extension we currently don't have loaded.
A bad value will at worst cause a WARNING when the extension
does get loaded.)
Also, adjust GRANT ON PARAMETER to have the same opinions about
whether to allow an unrecognized GUC name, and to throw the
same errors if not (it previously used a one-size-fits-all

only a superuser will be allowed to do ALTER SYSTEM SET on an

Since its introduction, LogLogicalMessage() (via the SQL interface
pg_logical_emit_message()) has never included a call to XLogFlush(),
causing it to potentially lose messages on a crash when used in
non-transactional mode. This has come up to me as a problem while
playing with ideas to design a test suite for what has become
039_end_of_wal.pl introduced in bae868caf2 by Thomas Munro, because
there are no direct ways to force a WAL flush via SQL.
The default is false, to not flush messages and influence existing
use-cases where this function could be used. If set to true, the
message emitted is flushed before returning back to the caller, making
the message durable on crash. This new option has no effect when using
pg_logical_emit_message() in transactional mode, as the record's flush
is guaranteed by the WAL record generated by the transaction committed.
Two queries of test_decoding are tweaked to cover the new code path for
the flush.

Use a modulo operator instead of implementing the same behavior
with a loop. The loop solution is doubtless microscopically
faster for the typical case of only wrapping into the very next
day, but maybe not so much for large interval values. In any
case, timetz is such a backwater that it's doubtful anybody
would notice any performance change anyway.
This avoids a compiler bug occurring in AIX's xlc, even in pretty
late-model revisions.
We did not have test coverage for the case where the initial
result->time value is negative, so add that.
For the moment, install this only in HEAD. My plan is to
back-patch the test case, and then the code change assuming that
buildfarm testing proves the bug occurs in the back branches.
(That seems pretty likely, but let's find out for sure.)

The SIGTERM handler for the startup process immediately calls
proc_exit() for the duration of the restore_command, i.e., a call
to system(). This system() call forks a new process to execute the
shell command, and this child process inherits the parent's signal
handlers. If both the parent and child processes receive SIGTERM,
both will attempt to call proc_exit(). This can end badly. For
example, both processes will try to remove themselves from the
PGPROC shared array.
To fix this problem, this commit adds a check in
StartupProcShutdownHandler() to see whether MyProcPid == getpid().
If they match, this is the parent process, and we can proc_exit()
like before. If they do not match, this is a child process, and we
just emit a message to STDERR (in a signal safe manner) and
_exit(), thereby skipping any problematic exit callbacks.
This commit also adds checks in proc_exit(), ProcKill(), and
AuxiliaryProcKill() that verify they are not being called within
such child processes.

First, we shouldn't recommend switching to single-user mode, because
that's terrible advice. Especially on newer versions where VACUUM
will enter emergency mode when nearing (M)XID exhaustion, it's
perfectly fine to just VACUUM in multi-user mode. Doing it that way
is less disruptive and avoids disabling the safeguards that prevent
actual wraparound, so recommend that instead.
Second, be more precise about what is going to happen (when we're
nearing the limits) or what is happening (when we actually hit them).
The database doesn't shut down, nor does it refuse all commands. It
refuses commands that assign whichever of XIDs and MXIDs are nearly
exhausted.
No back-patch. The existing hint that advises going to single-user
mode is sufficiently awful advice that removing it or changing it
might be justifiable even though we normally avoid changing
user-facing messages in back-branches, but I (rhaas) felt that it
was better to be more conservative and limit this fix to master
only. Aside from the usual risk of breaking translations, people
might be used to the existing message, or even have monitoring

It is possible that the tail XID of pg_serial/ gets ahead of its head
XID, which would cause the truncation of pg_serial/ done during
checkpoints to show up as a "wraparound" LOG in SimpleLruTruncate(),
which is confusing. This also wastes a bit of disk space until the head
page is reclaimed again.
CheckPointPredicate() is changed so as the cutoff page for the
truncation is switched to the head page if the tail XID has advanced
beyond the head XID, rather than the tail page. This prevents the
confusing LOG message about a wraparound while allowing some truncation
to be done to cut in disk space.
This could be considered as a bug fix, but the original behavior is
harmless as well, resulting only in disk space temporarily wasted, so
no backpatch is done.

Dropping a temp table could entail TOAST table access to clean out
toasted catalog entries, such as large pg_constraint.conbin strings
for complex CHECK constraints. If we did that via ON COMMIT DROP,
we triggered the assertion in init_toast_snapshot(), because
there was no provision for setting up a snapshot for the drop
actions. Fix that.
(I assume here that the adjacent truncation actions for ON COMMIT
DELETE ROWS don't have a similar problem: it doesn't seem like
nontransactional truncations would need to touch any toasted fields.
If that proves wrong, we could refactor a bit to have the same
snapshot acquisition cover that too.)

If SIGTERM is received within this section, the startup process
will immediately proc_exit() in the signal handler, so it is
inadvisable to include any more code than is required there (as
such code is unlikely to be compatible with doing proc_exit() in a
signal handler). This commit moves the code recently added to this
section (see 1b06d7bac9 and 7fed801135) to outside of the section.
This ensures that the startup process only calls proc_exit() in its
SIGTERM handler for the duration of the system() call, which is how
this code worked from v8.4 to v14.

For the same reasons given in commit 403ac226d, adjust these
functions to not assume that checking SearchSysCacheExists can
guarantee success of a later fetch.
This follows the same internal API choices made in the earlier commit:
add a function XXXExt(oid, is_missing) and use that to eliminate
the need for a separate existence check. The changes are very
straightforward, though tedious. For the moment I just made the new
functions static in namespace.c, but we could export them if a need
emerges.

The versions of these functions that accept object OIDs are supposed
to return NULL, rather than failing, if the target object has been
dropped. This makes it safe(r) to use them in queries that scan
catalogs, since the functions will be applied to objects that are
visible in the query's snapshot but might now be gone according to
the catalog snapshot. In most cases we implemented this by doing
a SearchSysCacheExists test and assuming that if that succeeds, we
can safely invoke the appropriate aclchk.c function, which will
immediately re-fetch the same syscache entry. It was argued that
if the existence test succeeds then the followup fetch must succeed
as well, for lack of any intervening AcceptInvalidationMessages call.
Alexander Lakhin demonstrated that this is not so when
CATCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE is enabled: the syscache entry will be forcibly
dropped at the end of SearchSysCacheExists, and then it is possible
for the catalog snapshot to get advanced while re-fetching the entry.
Alexander's test case requires the operation to happen inside a
parallel worker, but that seems incidental to the fundamental problem.
What remains obscure is whether there is a way for this to happen in a
non-debug build. Nonetheless, CATCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE is a very useful
test methodology, so we'd better make the code safe for it.
After some discussion we concluded that the most future-proof fix
is to give up the assumption that checking SearchSysCacheExists can
guarantee success of a later fetch. At best that assumption leads
to fragile code --- for example, has_type_privilege appears broken
for array types even if you believe the assumption holds. And it's
not even particularly efficient.
There had already been some work towards extending the aclchk.c
APIs to include "is_missing" output flags, so this patch extends
that work to cover all the aclchk.c functions that are used by the
has_xxx_privilege() functions. (This allows getting rid of some
ad-hoc decisions about not throwing errors in certain places in
aclchk.c.)
In passing, this fixes the has_sequence_privilege() functions to
provide the same guarantees as their cousins: for some reason the
SearchSysCacheExists tests never got added to those.
There is more work to do to remove the unsafe coding pattern with
SearchSysCacheExists in other places, but this is a pretty
self-contained patch so I'll commit it separately.
Per bug #18014 from Alexander Lakhin. Given the lack of hard evidence
that there's a bug in non-debug builds, I'm content to fix this only

oversight in the back branches, but in the absence of field complaints
I'm not too excited about that either.)

When COPYing into a partitioned table that does now permit the use of
table_multi_insert(), we could error out with
ERROR: could not read block NN in file "base/...": read only 0 of 8192 bytes
because BulkInsertState->next_free was not reset between partitions. This
problem occurred only when not able to use table_multi_insert(), as a
dedicated BulkInsertState for each partition is used in that case.
The bug was introduced in 00d1e02be2, but it was hard to hit at that point,
as commonly bulk relation extension is not used when not using
table_multi_insert(). It became more likely after 82a4edabd2, which expanded
the use of bulk extension.
To fix the bug, reset the bulk relation extension state in BulkInsertState in
ReleaseBulkInsertStatePin(). That was added (in b1ecb9b3fc) to tackle a very
similar issue. Obviously the name is not quite correct, but there might be
external callers, and bulk insert state needs to be reset in precisely in the
situations that ReleaseBulkInsertStatePin() already needed to be called.
Medium term the better fix likely is to disallow reusing BulkInsertState
across relations.
Add a test that, without the fix, reproduces #18130 in most
configurations. The test also catches the problem fixed in b1ecb9b3fc when

If partition pruning was delayed until execution and the query contained
an IS NULL qual on one of the partitioned keys, and some subsequent

Backpatch-through: 11, where runtime partition pruning was added.
get_steps_using_prefix_recurse() incorrectly assumed that it could stop
recursive processing of the 'prefix' list when cur_keyno was one before
the step_lastkeyno. Since hash partition pruning can prune using IS
NULL quals, and these IS NULL quals are not present in the 'prefix'
list, then that logic could cause more levels of recursion than what is
needed and lead to there being no more items in the 'prefix' list to
process. This would manifest itself as a crash in some code that
expected the 'start' ListCell not to be NULL.
Here we adjust the logic so that instead of stopping recursion at 1 key
before the step_lastkeyno, we just look at the llast(prefix) item and
ensure we only recursively process up until just before whichever the last
key is. This effectively allows keys to be missing in the 'prefix' list.
This change does mean that step_lastkeyno is no longer needed, so we
remove that from the static functions. I also spent quite some time
reading this code and testing it to try to convince myself that there
are no other issues. That resulted in the irresistible temptation of
rewriting some comments, many of which were just not true or inconcise.

In commit 3fc6e2d7f, I (tgl) argued that we only need to check for
a constant-FALSE restriction clause when there's exactly one
restriction clause, on the grounds that const-folding would have
thrown away anything ANDed with a Const FALSE. That's true just after
const-folding has been applied, but subsequent processing such as
equivalence class expansion could result in cases where a Const FALSE
is ANDed with some other stuff. (Compare for instance joinrels.c's
restriction_is_constant_false.) Hence, tweak this logic to check all
the elements of the baserestrictinfo list, not just one; that's cheap
enough to not be worth worrying about.
There is one existing test case where this visibly improves the plan.
There would not be any savings in runtime, but the planner effort and
executor startup effort will be reduced, and anyway it's odd that
we can detect related cases but not this one.

worker_spi_launch() may report that a worker stopped when it fails to
connect on a database that does not allow connections if the worker
exits before the SQL function checks for the current status of the
worker. The test is switched to use Cluster::psql instead of
safe_psql() so as it does not fail hard when this query errors. While
on it, this removes a query that looks at pg_stat_activity to simplify
the test, as a check on the contents of the server logs achieves the
same when the worker cannot connect to the database without
datallowconn.

The comment claimed that it is "called from postmaster", but it is
actually called in the child process, pretty early in the process
initialization. I guess you could interpret "called from postmaster"
to mean that, but it seems wrong to me. Rename the function to be
consistent with other functions with similar role.

In EXEC_BACKEND or single-user mode, we process
shared_preload_libraries at postmaster startup as usual, but also at
backend startup. When a library calls RegisterBackgroundWorker() when
being loaded into a backend process, we go through the motions to add
the worker to BackgroundWorkerList, even though that is a
postmaster-private data structure. Make it return early when called in
a backend process, without changing BackgroundWorkerList.
You could argue that it was intentional: In non-EXEC_BACKEND mode, the
backend processes inherit BackgroundWorkerList at fork(), so it does
make some sense to initialize it to the same state in EXEC_BACKEND
mode, too. It's clearly a postmaster-private structure, though, and
all the functions that use it are clearly marked as "should only be
called in postmaster".
You could also argue that libraries should not call
RegisterBackgroundWorker() during backend startup. It's too late to
correctly register any static background workers at that stage. But
it's a common pattern in extensions, and it doesn't seem worth the
churn to require all extensions to change it.
Another sloppiness was the exception for "internal" background
workers. We checked that RegisterBackgroundWorker() was called during
shared_preload_libraries processing, or the background worker was an
internal one. That exception was made in commit 665d1fad99 to allow
postmaster to register the logical apply launcher in
ApplyLauncherRegister(). The way the check was written, it would not
complain if you registered an internal background worker in a regular
backend process. But it would complain if postmaster registered a
background worker defined in a shared library, outside
shared_preload_libraries processing. I think the correct rule is that
you can only register static background workers in the postmaster
process, and only before the bgworker shared memory array has been
initialized. Check for that more directly.

The serialized representation of an internal aggregate state is a bytea
value. In each deserial function, in order to "receive" the bytea value
we appended it onto a short-lived StringInfoData using
appendBinaryStringInfo. This was a little wasteful as it meant having to
palloc memory, copy a (possibly long) series of bytes then later pfree
that memory. Instead of going to this extra trouble, we can just fake up
a StringInfoData and point the data directly at the bytea's payload. This
should help increase the performance of internal aggregate
deserialization.

1349d2790 added code to adjust the PlannerInfo.group_pathkeys so that
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregate functions could obtain pre-sorted inputs
to allow faster execution. That commit forgot to adjust the pathkeys in
create_agg_path(). Some code in there assumed that it was always fine
to make the AggPath's pathkeys the same as its subpath's. That seems to
have been ok up until 1349d2790, but since that commit adds pathkeys for
columns which are within the aggregate function, those columns won't be
available above the aggregate node. This can result in "could not find
pathkey item to sort" during create_plan().
The fix here is to strip off the additional pathkeys added by
adjust_group_pathkeys_for_groupagg(). It seems that the pathkeys here
will only ever be group_pathkeys, so all we need to do is check if the
length of the pathkey list is longer than the num_groupby_pathkeys and
get rid of the additional ones only if we see extras.

Going by c4a1933b4, b33ef397a and 05893712c (to name just a few), it seems
that maintaining debug_print_rel() is often forgotten. In the case of
c4a1933b4, it was several years before anyone noticed that a path type

compiled when building with OPTIMIZER_DEBUG).
After a quick survey on the pgsql-hackers mailing list, nobody came
forward to admit that they use OPTIMIZER_DEBUG. So to prevent any future
maintenance neglect, let's just remove debug_print_rel() and have
OPTIMIZER_DEBUG make use of pprint() instead (as suggested by Tom Lane).
If anyone wants to come forward to claim they make use of
OPTIMIZER_DEBUG in a way that they need debug_print_rel() then they have
around 10 months remaining in the v17 cycle where we could revert this.
If nobody comes forward in that time, then we can likely safely declare

Back in the 8.3 era we discovered that it was problematic if
libpq.so had encoding ID assignments different from the backend,
which is possible because on some platforms libpq.so might be
of a different major version from the calling programs.
psql should use libpq's assignments, but initdb has to use the
backend's, else it will put wrong values into pg_database.
The solution devised in commit 8468146b0 relied on giving initdb
its own copy of encnames.c rather than relying on the functions
exported by libpq. Later, that metamorphosed into ensuring that
libpgcommon got linked before libpq -- which made things OK for
initdb but broke psql. We didn't notice for lack of any changes
in enum pg_enc since then. Commit 06843df4a reversed that, fixing
the latent bug in psql but adding one in initdb. The meson build
infrastructure is also not being sufficiently careful about link
order, and trying to make it so would be equally fragile.
Hence, let's use a new scheme based on giving the libpq-exported
symbols different real names than the same functions exported from
libpgcommon.a or libpgcommon_srv.a. (We could distinguish those
two cases as well, but there seems no need to.) libpq gets the
official names to avoid an ABI break for libpq clients, while the
other cases use #define's to make the real names "xxx_private"
rather than "xxx". By controlling where the #define's are
applied, we can force any particular client program to use one
set or the other of the encnames.c functions.
We cannot back-patch this, since it'd be an ABI break for backend
loadable modules, but there seems little need to. We're just
trying to ensure that the world is safe for hypothetical future
additions to enum pg_enc.
In passing this should fix "duplicate symbol" linker warnings
that we've been seeing on AIX buildfarm members since commit
06843df4a. It's not very clear why that linker is complaining
now, when there were strictly *more* duplicates visible before,
but in any case this should remove the reason for complaint.

Imagine the ordered B-tree scan for the query like this.

This patch implements prechecking of the scan keys required for directional

A couple of new options are added to this module to provide more control
on the ways bgworkers are started:
- A new GUC called worker_spi.role to control which role to use by
default when starting a worker.
- worker_spi_launch() gains three arguments: a role OID, a database OID
and flags (currently only BGWORKER_BYPASS_ALLOWCONN). By default, the
role OID and the database OID are InvalidOid, in which case the worker
would use the related GUCs.
Workers loaded by shared_preload_libraries use the default values
provided by the GUCs, with flags at 0. The options are given to the
main bgworker routine through bgw_extra. A test case is tweaked to
start two dynamic workers with databases and roles defined by the caller
of worker_spi_launch().
These additions will have the advantage of expanding the tests for
bgworkers, for at least two cases:
- BGWORKER_BYPASS_ALLOWCONN has no coverage in the core tree.
- A new bgworker flag is under discussion, and this eases the
integration of new tests.

This commit changes the WAL reader routines so as a FATAL for the
backend or exit(FAILURE) for the frontend is triggered if an allocation
for a WAL record decode fails in walreader.c, rather than treating this
case as bogus data, which would be equivalent to the end of WAL. The
key is to avoid palloc_extended(MCXT_ALLOC_NO_OOM) in walreader.c,
relying on plain palloc() calls.
The previous behavior could make WAL replay finish too early than it
should. For example, crash recovery finishing earlier may corrupt
clusters because not all the WAL available locally was replayed to
ensure a consistent state. Out-of-memory failures would show up
randomly depending on the memory pressure on the host, but one simple
case would be to generate a large record, then replay this record after
downsizing a host, as Ethan Mertz originally reported.
This relies on bae868caf2, as the WAL reader routines now do the
memory allocation required for a record only once its header has been
fully read and validated, making xl_tot_len trustable. Making the WAL
reader react differently on out-of-memory or bogus record data would
require ABI changes, so this is the safest choice for stable branches.
Also, it is worth noting that 3f1ce97346 has been using a plain
palloc() in this code for some time now.
Thanks to Noah Misch and Thomas Munro for the discussion.
Like the other commit, backpatch down to 12, leaving out v11 that will
be EOL'd soon. The behavior of considering a failed allocation as bogus
data comes originally from 0ffe11abd3, where the record length
retrieved from its header was not entirely trustable.

This adjusts the expression evaluation code for CoerceViaIO and
CoerceToDomain to handle errors softly if needed.
For CoerceViaIo, this means using InputFunctionCallSafe(), which
provides the option to handle errors softly, instead of calling the
type input function directly.
For CoerceToDomain, this simply entails replacing the ereport() in
ExecEvalConstraintCheck() by errsave().
In both cases, the ErrorSaveContext to be used when evaluating the
expression is stored by ExecInitExprRec() in the expression's struct
in the expression's ExprEvalStep. The ErrorSaveContext is passed by
setting ExprState.escontext to point to it when calling
ExecInitExprRec() on the expression whose errors are to be handled
softly.
Note that no call site of ExecInitExprRec() has been changed in this
commit, so there's no functional change. This is intended for
implementing new SQL/JSON expression nodes in future commits that
will use to it suppress errors that may occur during type coercions.

After receiving position data for a lexeme, tsvectorrecv()
advanced its "datalen" value by (npos+1)*sizeof(WordEntry)
where the correct calculation is (npos+1)*sizeof(WordEntryPos).
This accidentally failed to render the constructed tsvector
invalid, but it did result in leaving some wasted space
approximately equal to the space consumed by the position data.
That could have several bad effects:
* Disk space is wasted if the received tsvector is stored into a
table as-is.
* A legal tsvector could get rejected with "maximum total lexeme
length exceeded" if the extra space pushes it over the MAXSTRPOS
limit.
* In edge cases, the finished tsvector could be assigned a length
larger than the allocated size of its palloc chunk, conceivably
leading to SIGSEGV when the tsvector gets copied somewhere else.
The odds of a field failure of this sort seem low, though valgrind
testing could probably have found this.
While we're here, let's express the calculation as
"sizeof(uint16) + npos * sizeof(WordEntryPos)" to avoid the type
pun implicit in the "npos + 1" formulation. It's not wrong
given that WordEntryPos had better be 2 bytes to avoid padding

ANALYZE on a table with inheritance children analyzes all the child
tables in a loop. When stepping to next child table, it updated the
child rel ID value in the command progress stats, but did not reset
the 'sample_blks_total' and 'sample_blks_scanned' counters.
acquire_sample_rows() updates 'sample_blks_total' as soon as the scan
starts and 'sample_blks_scanned' after processing the first block, but
until then, pg_stat_progress_analyze would display a bogus combination
of the new child table relid with old counter values from the

Under some circumstances, concurrent MERGE operations could lead to
inconsistent results, that varied according the plan chosen. This was
caused by a lack of rowmarks on the source relation, which meant that
EvalPlanQual rechecking was not guaranteed to return the same source
tuples when re-running the join query.
Fix by ensuring that preprocess_rowmarks() sets up PlanRowMarks for
all non-target relations used in MERGE, in the same way that it does
for UPDATE and DELETE.

As of Xcode 15 (macOS Sonoma), the linker complains about duplicate
references to the same library. We see warnings about libpgport and
libpgcommon being duplicated in many client executables. This is a
consequence of the hack introduced in commit 6b7ef076b to list
libpgport before libpq while not removing it from $(LIBS).
(Commit 8396447cd later applied the same rule to libpgcommon.)
The concern in 6b7ef076b was to ensure that the client executable
wouldn't unintentionally depend on pgport functions from libpq.
That concern is obsolete on any platform for which we can do symbol
export control, because if we can then the pgport functions in libpq
won't be exposed anyway. Hence, we can fix this problem by just
removing libpgport and libpgcommon from $(libpq_pgport), and letting
clients depend on the occurrences in $(LIBS).
In the back branches, do that only on macOS (which we know has
symbol export control). In HEAD, let's be more aggressive and
remove the extra libraries everywhere. The only still-supported
platforms that lack export control are MinGW/Cygwin, and it
doesn't seem worth sweating over ABI stability details for those
(or if somebody does care, it'd probably be possible to perform
symbol export control for those too). As well as being simpler,
this might give some microscopic improvement in build time.
The meson build system is not changed here, as it doesn't have
this particular disease, though it does have some related issues
that we'll fix separately.

Improve find_base_rel() and find_base_rel_ignore_join() so that they
raise an ERROR if they ever receive a negative relid value in
non-cassert builds. If either of these functions had ever received a
negative relid then they'd have attempted to access memory that does not
belong to simple_rel_array.
Because no evidence has been presented of actual cases where bugs have
caused this to happen, here we take a lightweight approach to checking
for negative values and simply cast both values to uint32 before
performing the comparison. This will cause any negative relids to be
seen as greater than simple_rel_array_size which will ERROR rather than
attempt to access a negative simple_rel_array element. Obviously, the
run-time error is better than a crash, so it makes sense to protect
against this, especially when it can be done without adding any
additional run-time overhead.
There is a slight change here if the functions are ever called with a
relid of 0. This will pass the bounds check, but that array entry
should be NULL (along with the corresponding simple_rte_array entry), so
won't pass the "if (rel)" condition and still fall through and raise an
ERROR.

nbtree's mark/restore processing failed to correctly handle an edge case
involving array key advancement and related search-type scan key state.
Scans with ScalarArrayScalarArrayOpExpr quals requiring mark/restore
processing (for a merge join) could incorrectly conclude that an
affected array/scan key must not have advanced during the time between
marking and restoring the scan's position.
As a result of all this, array key handling within btrestrpos could skip
a required call to _bt_preprocess_keys(). This confusion allowed later
primitive index scans to overlook tuples matching the true current array
keys. The scan's search-type scan keys would still have spurious values
corresponding to the final array element(s) -- not values matching the
first/now-current array element(s).
To fix, remember that "array key wraparound" has taken place during the
ongoing btrescan in a flag variable stored in the scan's state, and use
that information at the point where btrestrpos decides if another call
to _bt_preprocess_keys is required.
Oversight in commit 70bc5833, which taught nbtree to handle array keys
during mark/restore processing, but missed this subtlety. That commit
was itself a bug fix for an issue in commit 9e8da0f7, which taught
nbtree to handle ScalarArrayOpExpr quals natively.

Backpatch: 11- (all supported branches).
This code was sloppy about comparison of index columns that
are expressions. It didn't reliably reject cases where one
index has an expression where the other has a plain column,
and it could index off the start of the attmap array, leading
to a Valgrind complaint (though an actual crash seems unlikely).
I'm not sure that the expression-vs-column sloppiness leads
to any visible problem in practice, because the subsequent
comparison of the two expression lists would reject cases
where the indexes have different numbers of expressions
overall. Maybe we could falsely match indexes having the
same expressions in different column positions, but it'd
require unlucky contents of the word before the attmap array.
It's not too surprising that no problem has been reported
from the field. Nonetheless, this code is clearly wrong.

This commit changes the query jumbling of CallStmt so as its IN/OUT
parameters are able to show up as constants with a parameter symbol in
pg_stat_statements, like:
CALL proc1($1, $2);
CALL proc2($1, $2, $3);
The transformed FuncExpr is used in the query ID computation instead of
the FuncCall generated by the parser, so as it is sensitive to the OID
of the procedure and its list of input arguments. The output arguments
are handled in a separate list in CallStmt, which is also included in
the computation.
Tests are added to pg_stat_statements to show how this affects CALL with
IN/OUT parameters as well as overloaded functions.
Like 638d42a3c5 or 31de7e60da, this improves the monitoring of

When performing inlining LLVM unfortunately "leaks" types (the
types survive and are usable, but a new round of inlining will
recreate new structurally equivalent types). This accumulation
will over time amount to a memory leak which for some queries
can be large enough to trigger the OOM process killer.
To avoid accumulation of types, all IR related data is stored
in an LLVMContextRef which is dropped and recreated in order
to release all types. Dropping and recreating incurs overhead,
so it will be done only after 100 queries. This is a heuristic
which might be revisited, but until we can get the size of the
context from LLVM we are flying a bit blind.
This issue has been reported several times, there may be more

Yet another bug in the ilk of commits a7ee7c851 and 741b88435. In
741b88435, we took care to clear the memorized location of the
downlink when we split the parent page, because splitting the parent
page can move the downlink. But we missed that even *updating* a tuple
on the parent can move it, because updating a tuple on a gist page is
implemented as a delete+insert, so the updated tuple gets moved to the
end of the page.
This commit fixes the bug in two different ways (belt and suspenders):
1. Clear the downlink when we update a tuple on the parent page, even
if it's not split. This the same approach as in commits a7ee7c851
and 741b88435.
I also noticed that gistFindCorrectParent did not clear the
'downlinkoffnum' when it stepped to the right sibling. Fix that
too, as it seems like a clear bug even though I haven't been able
to find a test case to hit that.
2. Change gistFindCorrectParent so that it treats 'downlinkoffnum'
merely as a hint. It now always first checks if the downlink is
still at that location, and if not, it scans the page like before.
That's more robust if there are still more cases where we fail to
clear 'downlinkoffnum' that we haven't yet uncovered. With this,
it's no longer necessary to meticulously clear 'downlinkoffnum',
so this makes the previous fixes unnecessary, but I didn't revert
them because it still seems nice to clear it when we know that the
downlink has moved.
Also add the test case using the same test data that Alexander
posted. I tried to reduce it to a smaller test, and I also tried to
reproduce this with different test data, but I was not able to, so
let's just include what we have.

As implemented in 5891c7a8ed, setting "force" to true in
pgstat_report_wal() causes the routine to not wait for the pgstat
shmem lock if it cannot be acquired, in which case the WAL and I/O
statistics finish by not being flushed. The origin of the confusion
comes from pgstat_flush_wal() and pgstat_flush_io(), that use "nowait"
as sole argument. The I/O stats are new in v16.
This is the opposite behavior of what has been used in
pgstat_report_stat(), where "force" is the opposite of "nowait". In
this case, when "force" is true, the routine sets "nowait" to false,
which would cause the routine to wait for the pgstat shmem lock,
ensuring that the stats are always flushed. When "force" is false,
"nowait" is set to true, and the stats would only not be flushed if the
pgstat shmem lock can be acquired, returning immediately without
flushing the stats if the lock cannot be acquired.
This commit changes pgstat_report_wal() so as "force" has the same
behavior as in pgstat_report_stat(). There are currently three callers
of pgstat_report_wal():
- Two in the checkpointer where force=true during a shutdown and the
main checkpointer loop. Now the code behaves so as the stats are always
flushed.
- One in the main loop of the bgwriter, where force=false. Now the code
behaves so as the stats would not be flushed if the pgstat shmem lock
could not be acquired.
Before this commit, some stats on WAL and I/O could have been lost after
a shutdown, for example.

Parse analysis of a CallStmt will inject mutable information,

this for CALLs in plpgsql routines, because no dependency information

Before commit ee895a655, the issue would only manifest for CALLs

In a 64-bit build there's an awful lot of useless pad space in
ParsedWords. Since we may allocate large arrays of these,
it's worth some effort to reduce their size.
Here we reduce the alen field from uint32 to uint16, and then re-order
the fields to avoid unnecessary padding. alen is only used to
remember the allocated size of the apos[] array, which is not allowed
to exceed MAXNUMPOS (256) elements, so uint16 is plenty of space for
it. That gets us from 40 bytes to 24 on 64-bit builds, and from 20

xl_tot_len comes first in a WAL record. Usually we don't trust it to be
the true length until we've validated the record header. If the record
header was split across two pages, previously we wouldn't do the
validation until after we'd already tried to allocate enough memory to
hold the record, which was bad because it might actually be garbage
bytes from a recycled WAL file, so we could try to allocate a lot of
memory. Release 15 made it worse.
Since 70b4f82a4b, we'd at least generate an end-of-WAL condition if the
garbage 4 byte value happened to be > 1GB, but we'd still try to
allocate up to 1GB of memory bogusly otherwise. That was an
improvement, but unfortunately release 15 tries to allocate another
object before that, so you could get a FATAL error and recovery could
fail.
We can fix both variants of the problem more fundamentally using
pre-existing page-level validation, if we just re-order some logic.
The new order of operations in the split-header case defers all memory
allocation based on xl_tot_len until we've read the following page. At
that point we know that its first few bytes are not recycled data, by
checking its xlp_pageaddr, and that its xlp_rem_len agrees with
xl_tot_len on the preceding page. That is strong evidence that
xl_tot_len was truly the start of a record that was logged.
This problem was most likely to occur on a standby, because
walreceiver.c recycles WAL files without zeroing out trailing regions of
each page. We could fix that too, but it wouldn't protect us from rare
crash scenarios where the trailing zeroes don't make it to disk.
With reliable xl_tot_len validation in place, the ancient policy of
considering malloc failure to indicate corruption at end-of-WAL seems
quite surprising, but changing that is left for later work.
Also included is a new TAP test to exercise various cases of end-of-WAL
detection by writing contrived data into the WAL from Perl.
Back-patch to 12. We decided not to put this change into the final
release of 11.

pg_get_constraintdef() plus some string manipulation to get the check

In older branches, COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN failed to propagate
the current transaction's properties to the new transaction if
there was any open subtransaction (unreleased savepoint).
Instead, some previous transaction's properties would be restored.
This is because the "if (s->chain)" check in CommitTransactionCommand
examined the wrong instance of the "chain" flag and falsely
concluded that it didn't need to save transaction properties.
Our regression tests would have noticed this, except they used
identical transaction properties for multiple tests in a row,
so that the faulty behavior was not distinguishable from correct
behavior.
Commit 12d768e70 fixed the problem in v15 and later, but only rather
accidentally, because I removed the "if (s->chain)" test to avoid a
compiler warning, while not realizing that the warning was flagging a
real bug.
In v14 and before, remove the if-test and save transaction properties
unconditionally; just as in the newer branches, that's not expensive
enough to justify thinking harder.
Add the comment and extra regression test to v15 and later to
forestall any future recurrence, but there's no live bug in those
branches.
Patch by me, per bug #18118 from Liu Xiang. Back-patch to v12 where

Unfortunately, that commit forgot to adjust the code so the option was

There were no issues with the -z command as that option just adds

If any of these commands fail during editing or pre-processing, the
command stored in the query buffer would remain around without being
executed immediately as PSQL_CMD_ERROR is returned as status. The next
command provided by the user would run it, likely causing failures as
this could include silently some of the contents generated automatically
for views or functions.
The problems would be different depending on the psql meta-command used:
- For \ev and \ef, some errors can happen in a predictable way while
doing an object lookup or while creating an object command. A failure
while editing is equally problematic, but the class of failures
happening in the code path of do_edit() are unlikely. The query reset
is kept in exec_command_ef_ev() as a query may be unchanged.
- For \e, error can happen while editing.
In both cases, the query buffer is reset on error for an incorrect file
number provided, whose value check is done before filling up the query
buffer.
This is a slight change of behavior compared to the past for some of the
predictable error patterns for \ev and \ef, so for now I have made the
choice to not backpatch this commit (argument particularly available for
v11 that's going to be EOL'd soon). Perhaps this could be revisited
later depending on the feedback of this new behavior.

Presently, parallel restores spend a lot of time sorting this list
so that we pick the largest items first. With many tables, this
sorting can become a significant bottleneck. There are a couple of
reports from the field about this, and it is easy to reproduce.
This commit improves the performance of parallel pg_restore with
many tables by converting its ready_list to a priority queue, i.e.,
a binary heap. We will first try to run the highest priority item,
but if it cannot be chosen due to the lock heuristic, we'll do a
sequential scan through the heap nodes until we find one that is
runnable. This means that we might end up picking an item with a
much lower priority. However, we expect that we will typically be
able to pick one of the first few items, which should usually have
a relatively high priority.

When a snapshot file fails to be read in ImportSnapshot(), it would
issue an ERROR as "invalid snapshot identifier" when opening a stream
for it in read-only mode. The error handling is improved to be more
talkative in failure cases:
- If a snapshot identifier uses incorrect characters, complain with the
same error as before this commit.
- If the snapshot file cannot be found in pg_snapshots/, complain with a
"snapshot \"foo\" does not exist" instead. This maps to the case where
AllocateFile() fails on ENOENT. Based on a suggestion from Andres
Freund.
- If AllocateFile() throws something else than ENOENT as errno, report
it with more details in %m instead, as these failures are never
expected.

It's entirely possible for a logical slot to have a confirmed_flush LSN
higher than the last value saved on disk while not being marked as dirty.
Currently, it is not a major problem but a later patch adding support for
the upgrade of slots relies on that value being properly flushed to disk.
It can also help avoid processing the same transactions again in some
boundary cases after the clean shutdown and restart. Say, we process
some transactions for which we didn't send anything downstream (the
changes got filtered) but the confirm_flush LSN is updated due to
keepalives. As we don't flush the latest value of confirm_flush LSN, it
may lead to processing the same changes again without this patch.

ERROR: replication slot name "pg_basebackup_-1201966863" contains
invalid character
This commit fixes that problem by formatting the result from
PQbackendPID() as an unsigned integer when creating the temporary
replication slot name, so as the invalid character is gone and the
command can be parsed.

Backpatch-through: 11
Where the test wants a VACUUM command to generate WAL that would
conflict with a session on the standby, it could transiently fail to do
so if it couldn't acquire a cleanup lock conditionally at that moment on
the primary. VACUUM FREEZE will wait, so use that instead.
No back-patch for now, but that will be needed if/when the test is
re-enabled in back-branches.

We shouldn't be doing non-trivial work in signal handlers in general,
and in this case the handler could reach unsafe code and corrupt state.
It also clobbered its own "reason" code.
Move all recovery conflict decision logic into the next
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(), and have the signal handler just set flags and
the latch, following the standard pattern. Since there are several
different "reasons", use a separate flag for each.
With this refactoring, the recovery conflict system no longer
piggy-backs on top of the regular query cancelation mechanism, but
instead raises an error directly if it decides that is necessary. It
still needs to respect QueryCancelHoldoffCount, because otherwise the
FEBE protocol might get out of sync (see commit 2b3a8b20c2).
This fixes one class of intermittent failure in the new
031_recovery_conflict.pl test added by commit 9f8a050f, though the buggy
coding is much older. Failures outside contrived testing seem to be
very rare (or perhaps incorrectly attributed) in the field, based on
lack of reports.
No back-patch for now due to complexity and release schedule. We have
the option to back-patch into 16 later, as 16 has prerequisite commit
bea3d7e.

This commit allows specifying a --sync-method in several frontend
utilities that must synchronize many files to disk (initdb,
pg_basebackup, pg_checksums, pg_dump, pg_rewind, and pg_upgrade).
On Linux, users can specify "syncfs" to synchronize the relevant
file systems instead of calling fsync() for every single file. In
many cases, using syncfs() is much faster.
As with recovery_init_sync_method, this new option comes with some
caveats. The descriptions of these caveats have been moved to a
new appendix section in the documentation.

This commit adds support for using syncfs() in fsync_pgdata() and
fsync_dir_recurse() (which have been renamed to sync_pgdata() and
sync_dir_recurse()). Like recovery_init_sync_method,
sync_pgdata() calls syncfs() for the data directory, each
tablespace, and pg_wal (if it is a symlink). For now, all of the
frontend utilities that use these support functions are hard-coded
to use fsync(), but a follow-up commit will allow specifying
syncfs().

This commit renames RecoveryInitSyncMethod to DataDirSyncMethod and
moves it to common/file_utils.h. This is preparatory work for a
follow-up commit that will allow specifying the synchronization
method in frontend utilities such as pg_upgrade and pg_basebackup.

This file is now made of two columns, removing the column listing the
user-visible strings used in the system views and the documentation:
- Enum definitions for each class without the prefix "WAIT_EVENT_", so
as this information can be grepped in the code and wait_event_names.txt
at the same time.
- Description in the documentation.
The wait event names are now generated from the enum objects in
CamelCase, with the underscores removed. The data generated for wait
events is consistent with what was produced by 414f6c0fb7.
This has the advantage to remove WAIT_EVENT_DOCONLY, which was a
placeholder for the wait event types Lock and LWLock as these two only
require the generation of the documentation.
