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.

Some of our src/bin tools read the control file without any kind of

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.

that there's a bug in non-debug builds, I'm content to fix this only

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

This could only affect HASH partitioned tables with at least 2 partition
key columns.
If partition pruning was delayed until execution and the query contained
an IS NULL qual on one of the partitioned keys, and some subsequent
partitioned key was being compared to a non-Const, then this could result
in a crash due to the incorrect keyno being used to calculate the
stateidx for the expression evaluation code.
Here we fix this by properly skipping partitioned keys which have a
nullkey set. Effectively, this must be the same as what's going on

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.

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

Backpatch-through: 16, where 1349d2790 was introduced
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
was not handled by debug_print_rel(). (debug_print_rel() is only
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
debug_print_rel() as not worth keeping.

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.

Depending on the values, it can cause ugly formatting. Also, we're

Currently, B-tree code matches every scan key to every item on the page.
Imagine the ordered B-tree scan for the query like this.
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE col > 'a' AND col < 'b' ORDER BY col;
The (col > 'a') scan key will be always matched once we find the location to
start the scan. The (col < 'b') scan key will match every item on the page
as long as it matches the last item on the page.
This patch implements prechecking of the scan keys required for directional
scan on beginning of page scan. If precheck is successful we can skip this
scan keys check for the items on the page. That could lead to significant
acceleration especially if the comparison operator is expensive.

A bgworker can spawn parallel workers of its own when executing queries,

supported by observing the header includes we can remove in tupdesc.c.

Keep track of the used size of the array. That avoids looping through
the whole array in a few places. It doesn't matter from a performance
point of view since the array is small anyway, but this feels less
surprising and is a little less code. Now that we have an explicit
NumListenSockets variable that is statically initialized to 0, we
don't need the loop to initialize the array.
Allocate the array in PostmasterContext. The array isn't needed in
child processes, so this allows reusing that memory. We could easily
make the array resizable now, but we haven't heard any complaints

Previously, the JSON code didn't have to worry too much about freeing
JsonLexContext, because it was never too long-lived. With new features
being added for SQL/JSON this is no longer the case. Add a routine
that knows how to free this struct and apply that to a few places, to
prevent this from becoming problematic.
At the same time, we change the API of makeJsonLexContextCstringLen to
make it receive a pointer to JsonLexContext for callers that want it to
be stack-allocated; it can also be passed as NULL to get the original
behavior of a palloc'ed one.
This also causes an ABI break due to the addition of flags to
JsonLexContext, so we can't easily backpatch it. AFAICS that's not much

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

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.

In a selective restore, ACLs for a table should be dumped if the
table is selected to be dumped. However, if the table has both
table-level and column-level ACLs, only the table-level ACL was
restored. This happened because _tocEntryRequired assumed that
an ACL could have only one dependency (the one on its table),
and punted if there was more than one. But since commit ea9125304,
column-level ACLs also depend on the table-level ACL if any, to
ensure correct ordering in parallel restores. To fix, adjust the
logic in _tocEntryRequired to ignore dependencies on ACLs.
I extended a test case in 002_pg_dump.pl so that it purports to
test for this; but in fact the test passes even without the fix.
That's because this bug only manifests during a selective restore,

The retry loop is needed because heap_page_prune() calls
HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() and then lazy_scan_prune() does the same
thing again, and they might get different answers due to concurrent

HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() results that it computed back to the
caller, which allows lazy_scan_prune() to avoid needing to recompute
those values in the first place. That's nice both because it eliminates
the need for a retry loop and also because it's cheaper.

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
problems, but it seems clearer this way.

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.

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
workloads with a lot of CALL statements, preventing unnecessary bloat
when these use different input (or event output) values.

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,
for instance the OID of the called procedure, so that subsequent
DDL may create a need to re-parse the CALL. We failed to detect
this for CALLs in plpgsql routines, because no dependency information
was collected when putting a CallStmt into the plan cache. That
could lead to misbehavior or strange errors such as "cache lookup
failed".
Before commit ee895a655, the issue would only manifest for CALLs
appearing in atomic contexts, because we re-planned non-atomic
CALLs every time through anyway.
It is now apparent that extract_query_dependencies() probably
needs a special case for every utility statement type for which
stmt_requires_parse_analysis() returns true. I wanted to add

anything, but there are API issues as well as a more fundamental
point: stmt_requires_parse_analysis is supposed to be applied to

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.

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.

enough to justify thinking harder.

As physical replication work at the cluster level and not database

know the dbname in order to make the correct routing decision for
the connection.
With this the startup packet will include the dbname parameter.

ae78cae3b added the --buffer-usage-limit to vacuumdb to allow it to
include the BUFFER_USAGE_LIMIT option in the VACUUM command.
Unfortunately, that commit forgot to adjust the code so the option was
added to the ANALYZE command when the -Z command line argument was
specified.
There were no issues with the -z command as that option just adds
ANALYZE to the VACUUM command.
In passing adjust the code to escape the --buffer-usage-limit option
before passing it to the server. It seems nothing beyond a confusing
error message could become this lack of escaping as VACUUM cannot be
specified in a multi-command string.

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.
b29504eeb489 was the first improvement take. The older error message
exists since bb446b689b that introduced snapshot imports. Two test
cases are added to cover the cases of an identifier with an incorrect

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.

We shouldn't be doing non-trivial work in signal handlers in general,

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

Dropping a database while a connection is attempted on it was able to
lead to the presence of valid database entries in shared statistics.
The issue is that MyDatabaseId was getting set too early than it should,
as, if the connection attempted on the dropped database fails when
renamed or dropped, the shutdown callback of the shared statistics would
finish by re-inserting a correct entry related to the database already
dropped.
As analyzed by the bug reporters, this issue could lead to phantom
entries in the database list maintained by the autovacuum launcher
(in rebuild_database_list()) if the database dropped was part of the
database list when it was still valid. After the database was dropped,
it would remain the highest on the list of databases to considered by
the autovacuum worker as things to process. This would prevent
autovacuum jobs to happen on all the other databases still present.
The commit fixes this issue by delaying setting MyDatabaseId until the
database existence has been re-checked with the second scan on
pg_database after getting a shared lock on it, and by switching
pgstat_update_dbstats() so as nothing happens if MyDatabaseId is not
valid.

Unlike the other pg_stat_get_backend* functions,
pg_stat_get_backend_subxact() looks up the backend entry by using
its integer argument as a 1-based index in an internal array. The
other functions look for the entry with the matching session
backend ID. These numbers often match, but that isn't reliably

This commit resolves this discrepancy by introducing

- Standby not promoted within the specified wait time.

Per discussion, this switches the two first states to fail rather than

when the promotion is not completed within the specified time (60s by

We now create contype='n' pg_constraint rows for not-null constraints.
We propagate these constraints to other tables during operations such as
adding inheritance relationships, creating and attaching partitions and
creating tables LIKE other tables. We also spawn not-null constraints
for inheritance child tables when their parents have primary keys.
These related constraints mostly follow the well-known rules of
conislocal and coninhcount that we have for CHECK constraints, with some
adaptations: for example, as opposed to CHECK constraints, we don't
match not-null ones by name when descending a hierarchy to alter it,
instead matching by column name that they apply to. This means we don't
require the constraint names to be identical across a hierarchy.
For now, we omit them for system catalogs. Maybe this is worth
reconsidering. We don't support NOT VALID nor DEFERRABLE clauses
either; these can be added as separate features later (this patch is
already large and complicated enough.)
psql shows these constraints in \d+.
pg_dump requires some ad-hoc hacks, particularly when dumping a primary
key. We now create one "throwaway" not-null constraint for each column
in the PK together with the CREATE TABLE command, and once the PK is
created, all those throwaway constraints are removed. This avoids
having to check each tuple for nullness when the dump restores the
primary key creation.
pg_upgrading from an older release requires a somewhat brittle procedure
to create a constraint state that matches what would be created if the
database were being created fresh in Postgres 17. I have tested all the
scenarios I could think of, and it works correctly as far as I can tell,
but I could have neglected weird cases.
This patch has been very long in the making. The first patch was
written by Bernd Helmle in 2010 to add a new pg_constraint.contype value
('n'), which I (Álvaro) then hijacked in 2011 and 2012, until that one
was killed by the realization that we ought to use contype='c' instead:
manufactured CHECK constraints. However, later SQL standard
development, as well as nonobvious emergent properties of that design
(mostly, failure to distinguish them from "normal" CHECK constraints as
well as the performance implication of having to test the CHECK
expression) led us to reconsider this choice, so now the current
implementation uses contype='n' again. During Postgres 16 this had
already been introduced by commit e056c557ae, but there were some
problems mainly with the pg_upgrade procedure that couldn't be fixed in
reasonable time, so it was reverted.
In 2016 Vitaly Burovoy also worked on this feature[1] but found no
consensus for his proposed approach, which was claimed to be closer to
the letter of the standard, requiring an additional pg_attribute column
to track the OID of the not-null constraint for that column.

When running all (or just many) of our tests, a significant portion of both
CPU time and IO is spent running initdb. Most of those initdb runs don't
specify any options influencing properties of the created data directory.
Avoid most of that overhead by creating a "template" data directory, alongside
the temporary installation. Instead of running initdb, pg_regress and tap
tests can copy that data directory. When a tap test specifies options to
initdb, the template data directory is not used. That could be relaxed for
some options, but it's not clear it's worth the effort.

Revalidation of a plancache entry (after a cache invalidation event)
requires acquiring a snapshot. Normally that is harmless, but not
if the cached statement is one that needs to run without acquiring a
snapshot. We were already aware of that for TransactionStmts,
but for some reason hadn't extrapolated to the other statements that
PlannedStmtRequiresSnapshot() knows mustn't set a snapshot. This can
lead to unexpected failures of commands such as SET TRANSACTION
ISOLATION LEVEL. We can fix it in the same way, by excluding those
command types from revalidation.
However, we can do even better than that: there is no need to
revalidate for any statement type for which parse analysis, rewrite,
and plan steps do nothing interesting, which is nearly all utility
commands. To mechanize this, invent a parser function
stmt_requires_parse_analysis() that tells whether parse analysis does
anything beyond wrapping a CMD_UTILITY Query around the raw parse
tree. If that's what it does, then rewrite and plan will just
skip the Query, so that it is not possible for the same raw parse
tree to produce a different plan tree after cache invalidation.
stmt_requires_parse_analysis() is basically equivalent to the
existing function analyze_requires_snapshot(), except that for
obscure reasons that function omits ReturnStmt and CallStmt.
It is unclear whether those were oversights or intentional.
I have not been able to demonstrate a bug from not acquiring a
snapshot while analyzing these commands, but at best it seems mighty
fragile. It seems safer to acquire a snapshot for parse analysis of
these commands too, which allows making stmt_requires_parse_analysis
and analyze_requires_snapshot equivalent.
In passing this fixes a second bug, which is that ResetPlanCache
would exclude ReturnStmts and CallStmts from revalidation.
That's surely *not* safe, since they contain parsable expressions.

In PostgreSQL C code, we always call socket() with 0 for the protocol

Some of the ambuildempty functions used smgrwrite() directly, followed
by smgrimmedsync(). A few small problems with that:
Firstly, one is supposed to use smgrextend() when extending a
relation, not smgrwrite(). It doesn't make much difference in
production builds. smgrextend() updates the relation size cache, so
you miss that, but that's harmless because we never use the cached
relation size of an init fork. But if you compile with
CHECK_WRITE_VS_EXTEND, you get an assertion failure.
Secondly, the smgrwrite() calls were performed before WAL-logging, so
the page image written to disk had 0/0 as the LSN, not the LSN of the
WAL record. That's also harmless in practice, but seems sloppy.
Thirdly, it's better to use the buffer cache, because then you don't
need to smgrimmedsync() the relation to disk, which adds latency.
Bypassing the cache makes sense for bulk operations like index
creation, but not when you're just initializing an empty index.
Creation of unlogged tables is hardly performance bottleneck in any
real world applications, but nevertheless.
Backpatch to v16, but no further. These issues should be harmless in
practice, so better to not rock the boat in older branches.

A significant chunk of the time on the macos CI task is spent installing
packages using homebrew. The downloads of the packages are cached, but the
installation needs to happen every time. We can't cache the whole homebrew
installation, because it is too large due to pre-installed packages.
Speed this up by installing packages using macports and caching the
installation as .dmg. That's a lot faster than unpacking a tarball.
In addition, don't install llvm - it wasn't enabled when building, so it's
just a waste of time/space.
This substantially speeds up the mac CI time, both in the cold cache and in

This was disabled in commit 6f80a8d9c due to the lack of support for
handling of pseudoconstant quals assigned to replaced joins in
createplan.c. To re-allow it, this patch adds the support by 1)
modifying the ForeignPath and CustomPath structs so that if they
represent foreign and custom scans replacing a join with a scan, they
store the list of RestrictInfo nodes to apply to the join, as in
JoinPaths, and by 2) modifying create_scan_plan() in createplan.c so
that it uses that list in that case, instead of the baserestrictinfo
list, to get pseudoconstant quals assigned to the join, as mentioned in
the commit message for that commit.
Important item for the release notes: this is non-backwards-compatible

Commit b91dd9de was concerned with a theoretical problem with our
non-atomic condition variable operations. If you stop sleeping, and
then cancel the sleep in a separate step, you might be signaled in
between, and that could be lost. That doesn't matter for callers of
ConditionVariableBroadcast(), but callers of ConditionVariableSignal()
might be upset if a signal went missing like this.
Commit bc971f4025 interacted badly with that logic, because it doesn't
use ConditionVariableSleep(), which would normally put us back in the
wait list. ConditionVariableCancelSleep() would be confused and think
we'd received an extra signal, and try to forward it to another backend,
resulting in wakeup storms.
New idea: ConditionVariableCancelSleep() can just return true if we've
been signaled. Hypothetical users of ConditionVariableSignal() would
then still have a way to deal with rare lost signals if they are
concerned about that problem.

The new relation extension logic, introduced in 00d1e02be2, could lead to
slowdowns in some scenarios. E.g., when loading narrow rows into a table using
COPY, the caller of RelationGetBufferForTuple() will only request a small
number of pages. Without concurrency, we just extended using pwritev() in that
case. However, if there is *some* concurrency, we switched between extending
by a small number of pages and a larger number of pages, depending on the
number of waiters for the relation extension logic. However, some
filesystems, XFS in particular, do not perform well when switching between
extending files using fallocate() and pwritev().
To avoid that issue, remember the number of prior relation extensions in
BulkInsertState and extend more aggressively if there were prior relation
extensions. That not just avoids the aforementioned slowdown, but also leads
to noticeable performance gains in other situations, primarily due to
extending more aggressively when there is no concurrency. I should have done
it this way from the get go.

Backpatch: 16-, where the new relation extension code was added
Currently, the names of the custom wait event must be registered for
each backend, requiring all these to link to the shared memory area of
an extension, even if these are not loaded with
shared_preload_libraries.
This patch relaxes the constraints related to this infrastructure by
storing the wait events and their names in two dynamic hash tables in
shared memory. This has the advantage to simplify the registration of
custom wait events to a single routine call that returns an event ID
ready for consumption:
uint32 WaitEventExtensionNew(const char *wait_event_name);
The caller of this routine can then cache locally the ID returned, to be
used for pgstat_report_wait_start(), WaitLatch() or a similar routine.
The implementation uses two hash tables: one with a key based on the
event name to avoid duplicates and a second using the event ID as key
for event lookups, like on pg_stat_activity. These tables can hold a
minimum of 16 entries, and a maximum of 128 entries, which should be plenty
enough.
The code changes done in worker_spi show how things are simplified (most
of the code removed in this commit comes from there):
- worker_spi_init() is gone.
- No more shared memory hooks required (size requested and
initialization).
- The custom wait event ID is cached in the process that needs to set
it, with one single call to WaitEventExtensionNew() to retrieve it.
Per suggestion from Andres Freund.

The use of Memoize was already disabled in normal joins when the join
conditions had volatile functions per the code in

Here we adjust the costs for WindowAggs so that they properly take into
account how much of their subnode they must read before outputting the
first row. Without this, we always assumed that the startup cost for the
WindowAgg was not much more expensive than the startup cost of its
subnode, however, that's going to be completely wrong in many cases. The
WindowAgg may have to read *all* of its subnode to output a single row
with certain window bound options.
Here we estimate how many rows we'll need to read from the WindowAgg's
subnode and proportionally add more of the subnode's run costs onto the
WindowAgg's startup costs according to how much of it we expect to have to
read in order to produce the first WindowAgg row.
The reason this is more important than we might have initially thought is
that we may end up making use of a path from the lower planner that works
well as a cheap startup plan when the query has a LIMIT clause, however,
the WindowAgg might mean we need to read far more rows than what the LIMIT
specifies.

MSVC's _BitScan* functions return a boolean indicating whether any
bits were set in the input, and we were previously asserting that
they returned true, per our API. This is correct. However, other
platforms simply assert that the input is non-zero, so do that to be
more consistent.

libpq_source.c would consider any result returned by
pg_tablespace_location() as a symlink, resulting in run-time errors like
that:
pg_rewind: error: file "pg_tblspc/NN" is of different type in source and target
In-place tablespaces are directories located in pg_tblspc/, returned as
relative paths instead of absolute paths, so rely on that to make the
difference with a normal tablespace and an in-place one. If the path is
relative, the tablespace is handled as a directory. If the path is
absolute, consider it as a symlink.
In-place tablespaces are only intended for development purposes, so like
363e8f9 no backpatch is done. A test is added in pg_rewind with an
in-place tablespace and some data in it.

The second portion of the tests had a race condition where it would be
possible for the startup of the dynamic workers to fail, in the event
where the static workers started before them with the library loading in
shared_preload_libraries did not finish to create their respective
schemas. The conflict is caused by the fact that the dynamic and static
workers used the same IDs, overlapping each other, so, for now, switch
the dynamic workers to use different IDs, leading to different schemas
created.

Commit e7cb7ee14, which introduced the infrastructure for FDWs and
custom scan providers to replace joins with scans, failed to add support
handling of pseudoconstant quals assigned to replaced joins in
createplan.c, leading to an incorrect plan without a gating Result node
when postgres_fdw replaced a join with such a qual.
To fix, we could add the support by 1) modifying the ForeignPath and
CustomPath structs to store the list of RestrictInfo nodes to apply to
the join, as in JoinPaths, if they represent foreign and custom scans
replacing a join with a scan, and by 2) modifying create_scan_plan() in
createplan.c to use that list in that case, instead of the
baserestrictinfo list, to get pseudoconstant quals assigned to the join;
but #1 would cause an ABI break. So fix by modifying the infrastructure
to just disallow replacing joins with such quals.

Historically, hba.c limited tokens in the authentication configuration
files (pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf) to less than 256 bytes. We have
seen a few reports of this limit causing problems; notably, for
moderately-complex LDAP configurations. Let's get rid of the fixed
limit by using a StringInfo instead of a fixed-size buffer.
This actually takes less code than before, since we can get rid of
a nontrivial error recovery stanza. It's doubtless a hair slower,
but parsing the content of the HBA files should in no way be
performance-critical.
Although this is a pretty straightforward patch, it doesn't seem
worth the risk to back-patch given the small number of complaints
to date. In released branches, we'll just raise MAX_TOKEN to
ameliorate the problem.

This commit moves worker_spi to use TAP tests. sql/worker_spi.sql is
gone, replaced by an equivalent set of queries in a TAP script, without
worker_spi loaded in shared_preload_libraries:
- One query to launch a worker dynamically, relying now on "postgres" as
the default database to connect to.
- Two wait queries with poll_query_until(), one to wait for the worker
schema to be initialized and a second to wait for a tuple processed by
the worker.
- Server reload to accelerate the main loop of the spawned worker.
More coverage is added for workers registered when the library is loaded
with shared_preload_libraries, while on it, checking that these are
connecting to the database set in the GUC worker_spi.database.
A local run of these test is showing that TAP is slightly faster than
the original, while providing more coverage (3.7s vs 4.4s). There was
also some discussions about keeping the SQL tests, but this would
require initializing twice a cluster, increasing the runtime of the
tests up to 5.6s here.
These tests will be expanded more in an upcoming patch aimed at adding
support for custom wait events for the Extension class, still under
discussion, to check the new in-core APIs with and without a library set
in shared_preload_libraries.
Bharath has written the part where shared_preload_libraries is used,
while I have migrated the existing SQL tests to TAP.

In pg_stat_statements, savepoint names now show up as constants with a
parameter symbol, using as base query string the one added as a new
entry to the PGSS hash table, leading to:
RELEASE $1
ROLLBACK TO $1
SAVEPOINT $1
Applying constants to these query parts is a huge advantage for
workloads that generate randomly savepoint points, like ORMs (Django is
at the origin of this patch). The ODBC driver is a second layer that
likes a lot savepoints, though it does not use a random naming pattern.
A "location" field is added to TransactionStmt, now set only for
savepoints. The savepoint name is ignored by the query jumbling. The
location can be extended to other query patterns, if required, like 2PC
commands. Some tests are added to pg_stat_statements for all the query
patterns supported by the parser.
ROLLBACK, ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT and ROLLBACK TRANSACTION TO SAVEPOINT
have the same Node representation, so all these are equivalents. The
same happens for RELEASE and RELEASE SAVEPOINT.

JSON_SCALAR() produces a json value from any scalar sql value,

This commit adds a few comments about what LWLockWaitForVar() relies on
when a backend waits for a variable update on its LWLocks for WAL
insertions up to an expected LSN.
First, LWLockWaitForVar() does not include a memory barrier, relying on
a spinlock taken at the beginning of WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish(). This
was hidden behind two layers of routines in lwlock.c. This assumption
is now documented at the top of LWLockWaitForVar(), and detailed at bit
more within LWLockConflictsWithVar().
Second, document why WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() does not include
memory barriers, relying on a spinlock at its top, which is, per Andres'
input, fine for two different reasons, both depending on the fact that
the caller of WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() is waiting for a LSN up to a
certain value.
This area's documentation and assumptions could be improved more in the
future, but at least that's a beginning.

The WAL insertion lock variable insertingAt is currently being read
and written with the help of the LWLock wait list lock to avoid any read
of torn values. This wait list lock can become a point of contention on
a highly concurrent write workloads.
This commit switches insertingAt to a 64b atomic variable that provides
torn-free reads/writes. On platforms without 64b atomic support, the
fallback implementation uses spinlocks to provide the same guarantees
for the values read. LWLockWaitForVar(), through
LWLockConflictsWithVar(), reads the new value to check if it still needs
to wait with a u64 atomic operation. LWLockUpdateVar() updates the
variable before waking up the waiters with an exchange_u64 (full memory
barrier). LWLockReleaseClearVar() now uses also an exchange_u64 to
reset the variable. Before this commit, all these steps relied on
LWLockWaitListLock() and LWLockWaitListUnlock().
This reduces contention on LWLock wait list lock and improves
performance of highly-concurrent write workloads. Here are some

This commit switches the client-side data generation from INSERT queries
to COPY for the two tables pgbench_branches and pgbench_tellers.
pgbench_accounts was already using COPY.
COPY is a better interface for bulk loading or high latency connections
(this point can be countered with the option for server-side data
generation, still client-side is the default), and measurements have
proved that using it for these two other tables can lead to improvements
during initialization. I did not notice slowdowns at large scale
numbers on a local setup, either, most of the work happening for the
accounts table.
Previously COPY was only used for the pgbench_accounts table because the
amount of data was much larger than the two other tables. The code is
refactored so as all three tables use the same code path to execute the
COPY queries, with a callback to build data rows.

The tables created by pgbench rely on a few assumptions for TPC-B, where
the "filler" attribute is used to comply with this benchmark's rules as
well as pgbencn historical behavior. The data generated for each table
uses this filler in a different way:
- pgbench_accounts uses it as a blank-padded empty string.
- pgbench_tellers and pgbench_branches use it as a NULL value.
There were no checks done about the consistency of the data initialized,
and this has showed up while discussing a patch that changes the logic
in charge of the client-side data generation (pgbench documents all that

Applying add_outer_joins_to_relids() to a child join doesn't actually
work, even if we've built a SpecialJoinInfo specialized to the child,
because that function will also compare the join's relids to elements
of the main join_info_list, which only deal in regular relids not
child relids. This mistake escaped detection by the existing
partitionwise join tests because they didn't test any cases where
add_outer_joins_to_relids() needs to add additional OJ relids (that
is, any cases where join reordering per identity 3 is possible).
Instead, let's apply adjust_child_relids() to the relids of the parent
join. This requires minor code reordering to collect the relevant
AppendRelInfo structures first, but that's work we'd do shortly anyway.

is that it now always returns *outfuncoid even though a caller may
have no need currently to see one.
This is in preparation of later commits to implement additional

When pg_recvlogical needs to abort on a signal like SIGINT/SIGTERM, it
is expected to exit cleanly as the code documents. However, the code
forgot to clean up the state of the connection before leaving. This
would cause the tool to emit messages like "unexpected termination of
replication stream" error, which is meant for really unexpected
termination or a crash.
The code is refactored to apply the same termination abort operations for
signals, end LSN and keepalive cases, registering a "reason" for the
termination with a message printed under --verbose adapted to the reason
used.
This is arguably a bug, but this has been this way since the tool exists
and the signal termination can now become slower depending on the change
being decoded when the signal is received.

With the addition of INHERIT and SET options for role grants,
the historical display of role memberships in \du/\dg is woefully
inadequate. Besides those options, there are pre-existing
shortcomings that you can't see the ADMIN option nor the grantor.
To fix this, remove the "Member of" column from \du/\dg altogether
(making that output usefully narrower), and invent a new meta-command
"\drg" that is specifically for displaying role memberships. It
shows one row for each role granted to the selected role(s), with
the grant options and grantor.
We would not normally back-patch such a feature addition post
feature freeze, but in this case the change is mainly driven by
v16 changes in the server, so it seems appropriate to include it
in v16.

By default, pg_archivecleanup does not remove backup history files.
These are just few bytes useful for debugging purposes, still keeping
them around can bloat an archive path history files mixed with the WAL
segments if the path has a long history.
This patch adds a new option to control if backup history files are
removed, depending on the oldest segment name to keep around.
While on it, the TAP tests are refactored so as these are now able to
handle lists of files. Each file has a flag to track if it should still
exist or not depending on the oldest segment defined with the command
run.

A crash in the middle of a checkpoint with some two-phase state data
already flushed to disk by this checkpoint could cause a follow-up crash
recovery to recover twice the same transaction, once from what has been
found in pg_twophase/ at the beginning of recovery and a second time
when replaying its corresponding record.
This would lead to FATAL failures in the startup process during
recovery, where the same transaction would have a state recovered twice
instead of once:
LOG: recovering prepared transaction 731 from shared memory
LOG: recovering prepared transaction 731 from shared memory
FATAL: lock ExclusiveLock on object 731/0/0 is already held
This issue is fixed by skipping the addition of any 2PC state coming
from a record whose equivalent 2PC state file has already been loaded in
TwoPhaseState at the beginning of recovery by restoreTwoPhaseData(),
which is OK as long as the system has not reached a consistent state.
The timing to get a messed up recovery processing is very racy, and
would very unlikely happen. The thread that has reported the issue has
demonstrated the bug using injection points to force a PANIC in the
middle of a checkpoint.

Here we reduce the block size fields in AllocSetContext, GenerationContext
and SlabContext from Size down to uint32. Ever since c6e0fe1f2, blocks
for non-dedicated palloc chunks can no longer be larger than 1GB, so
there's no need to store the various block size fields as 64-bit values.
32 bits are enough to store 2^30.
Here we also further reduce the memory context struct sizes by getting rid
of the 'keeper' field which stores a pointer to the context's keeper
block. All the context types which have this field always allocate the
keeper block in the same allocation as the memory context itself, so the
keeper block always comes right at the end of the context struct. Add
some macros to calculate that address rather than storing it in the
context.
Overall, in AllocSetContext and GenerationContext, this saves 20 bytes on
64-bit builds which for ALLOCSET_SMALL_SIZES can sometimes mean the
difference between having to allocate a 2nd block and storing all the
required allocations on the keeper block alone. Such contexts are used
in relcache to store cache entries for indexes, of which there can be
a large number in a single backend.

If the plan itself is parallel-safe, and the initPlans are too,
there's no reason anymore to prevent the plan from being marked
parallel-safe. That restriction (dating to commit ab77a5a45) was
really a special case of the fact that we couldn't transmit subplans
to parallel workers at all. We fixed that in commit 5e6d8d2bb and
follow-ons, but this case never got addressed.
We still forbid attaching initPlans to a Gather node that's
inserted pursuant to debug_parallel_query = regress. That's because,
when we hide the Gather from EXPLAIN output, we'd hide the initPlans
too, causing cosmetic regression diffs. It seems inadvisable to
kluge EXPLAIN to the extent required to make the output look the
same, so just don't do it in that case.
Along the way, this also takes care of some sloppiness about updating
path costs to match when we move initplans from one place to another
during createplan.c and setrefs.c. Since all the planning decisions
are already made by that point, this is just cosmetic; but it seems
good to keep EXPLAIN output consistent with where the initplans are.
The diff in query_planner() might be worth remarking on. I found that
one because after fixing things to allow parallel-safe initplans, one
partition_prune test case changed plans (as shown in the patch) ---
but only when debug_parallel_query was active. The reason proved to
be that we only bothered to mark Result nodes as potentially
parallel-safe when debug_parallel_query is on. This neglects the fact
that parallel-safety may be of interest for a sub-query even though
the Result itself doesn't parallelize.

We are capable of optimizing MIN() and MAX() aggregates on indexed
columns into subqueries that exploit the index, rather than the normal
thing of scanning the whole table. When we do this, we replace the
Aggref node(s) with Params referencing subquery outputs. Such Params
really ought to be included in the per-plan-node extParam/allParam
sets computed by SS_finalize_plan. However, we've never done so
up to now because of an ancient implementation choice to perform
that substitution during set_plan_references, which runs after
SS_finalize_plan, so that SS_finalize_plan never sees these Params.
This seems like clearly a bug, yet there have been no field reports
of problems that could trace to it. This may be because the types
of Plan nodes that could contain Aggrefs do not have any of the
rescan optimizations that are controlled by extParam/allParam.
Nonetheless it seems certain to bite us someday, so let's fix it
in a self-contained patch that can be back-patched if we find a
case in which there's a live bug pre-v17.
The cleanest fix would be to perform a separate tree walk to do
these substitutions before SS_finalize_plan runs. That seems
unattractive, first because a whole-tree mutation pass is expensive,
and second because we lack infrastructure for visiting expression
subtrees in a Plan tree, so that we'd need a new function knowing
as much as SS_finalize_plan knows about that. I also considered
swapping the order of SS_finalize_plan and set_plan_references,
but that fell foul of various assumptions that seem tricky to fix.
So the approach adopted here is to teach SS_finalize_plan itself
to check for such Aggrefs. I refactored things a bit in setrefs.c
to avoid having three copies of the code that does that.
Given the lack of any currently-known bug, no test case here.

Before, if you went past about 64M array elements in array_agg() and

Presently, the privilege check for SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION checks
whether the original authenticated role was a superuser at
connection start time. Even if the role loses the superuser
attribute, its existing sessions are permitted to change session
authorization to any role.
This commit modifies this privilege check to verify the original
authenticated role currently has superuser. In the event that the
authenticated role loses superuser within a session authorization
change, the authorization change will remain in effect, which means
the user can still take advantage of the target role's privileges.
However, [RE]SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION will only permit switching

RelationReloadIndexInfo() is a fast-path used for index reloads in the
relation cache, and it has always forgotten about updating
indisreplident, which is something that would happen after an index is
selected for a replica identity. This can lead to incorrect cache
information provided when executing a command in a transaction context
that updates indisreplident.
None of the code paths currently on HEAD that need to check upon
pg_index.indisreplident fetch its value from the relation cache, always
relying on a fresh copy on the syscache. Unfortunately, this may not be
the case of out-of-core code, that could see out-of-date value.

indisvalid is switched to true for partitioned indexes when all its
partitions have valid indexes when attaching a new partition, up to the
top-most parent if all its leaves are themselves valid when dealing with
multiple layers of partitions.
The copy of the tuple from pg_index used to switch indisvalid to true
came from the relation cache, which is incorrect. Particularly, in the
case reported by Shruthi Gowda, executing a series of commands in a
single transaction would cause the validation of partitioned indexes to
use an incorrect version of a pg_index tuple, as indexes are reloaded
after an invalidation request with RelationReloadIndexInfo(), a much
faster version than a full index cache rebuild. In this case, the
limited information updated in the cache leads to an incorrect version
of the tuple used. One of the symptoms reported was the following
error, with a replica identity update, for instance:
"ERROR: attempted to update invisible tuple"
This is incorrect since 8b08f7d, so backpatch all the way down.

Until now, when DROP DATABASE got interrupted in the wrong moment, the removal
of the pg_database row would also roll back, even though some irreversible
steps have already been taken. E.g. DropDatabaseBuffers() might have thrown
out dirty buffers, or files could have been unlinked. But we continued to
allow connections to such a corrupted database.
To fix this, mark databases invalid with an in-place update, just before
starting to perform irreversible steps. As we can't add a new column in the
back branches, we use pg_database.datconnlimit = -2 for this purpose.
An invalid database cannot be connected to anymore, but can still be
dropped.
Unfortunately we can't easily add output to psql's \l to indicate that some
database is invalid, it doesn't fit in any of the existing columns.
