Tom Lane b7d9b0c266 Suppress variable-set-but-not-used warnings from clang 15.
clang 15+ will issue a set-but-not-used warning when the only
use of a variable is in autoincrements (e.g., "foo++;").
That's perfectly sensible, but it detects a few more cases that
we'd not noticed before.  Silence the warnings with our usual
methods, such as PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, or in one case by
actually removing a useless variable.

One thing that we can't nicely get rid of is that with %pure-parser,
Bison emits "yynerrs" as a local variable that falls foul of this
warning.  To silence those, I inserted "(void) yynerrs;" in the
top-level productions of affected grammars.

Per recently-established project policy, this is a candidate
for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses
annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior.  Hence,
back-patch to 9.5, which is as far as these patches go without
issues.  (A preliminary check shows that the prior branches
need some other set-but-not-used cleanups too, so I'll leave
them for another day.)

David Rowley 1ec2d0bc68 Fix misleading comment for get_cheapest_group_keys_order
The header comment for get_cheapest_group_keys_order() claimed that the
output arguments were set to a newly allocated list which may be freed by
the calling function, however, this was not always true as the function
would simply leave these arguments untouched in some cases.

This tripped me up when working on 1349d2790 as I mistakenly assumed I
could perform a list_concat with the output parameters.  That turned out
bad due to list_concat modifying the original input lists.

In passing, make it more clear that the number of distinct values is
important to reduce tiebreaks during sorts.  Also, explain what the
n_preordered parameter means.

Tom Lane c403f97b4e Future-proof the recursion inside ExecShutdownNode().
The API contract for planstate_tree_walker() callbacks is that they
take a PlanState pointer and a context pointer.  Somebody figured
they could save a couple lines of code by ignoring that, and passing
ExecShutdownNode itself as the walker even though it has but one
argument.  Somewhat remarkably, we've gotten away with that so far.
However, it seems clear that the upcoming C2x standard means to
forbid such cases, and compilers that actively break such code
likely won't be far behind.  So spend the extra few lines of code
to do it honestly with a separate walker function.

In HEAD, we might as well go further and remove ExecShutdownNode's
useless return value.  I left that as-is in back branches though,
to forestall complaints about ABI breakage.

Back-patch, with the thought that this might become of practical
importance before our stable branches are all out of service.
It doesn't seem to be fixing any live bug on any currently known
platform, however.

Very occasionally the stats test failed due to the number of sessions not

Tom Lane b759bb6714 Improve plpgsql's ability to handle arguments declared as RECORD.
Treat arguments declared as RECORD as if that were a polymorphic type
(which it is, sort of), in that we substitute the actual argument type
while forming the function cache lookup key.  This allows the specific
composite type to be known in some cases where it was not before,
at the cost of making a separate function cache entry for each named
composite type that's passed to the function during a session.  The
particular symptom discussed in bug #17610 could be solved in other
more-efficient ways, but only at the cost of considerable development
work, and there are other cases where we'd still fail without this.

Per bug #17610 from Martin Jurča.  Back-patch to v11 where we first
allowed plpgsql functions to be declared as taking type RECORD.

Etsuro Fujita 64387c5408 postgres_fdw: Avoid 'variable not found in subplan target list' error.
The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is
adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot
for the ForeignScan node.  But in the case where the outer plan contains
an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for
evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local
conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error.

The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the
Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra
columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them
up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in
the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan.  Repair.

This adds additional variants of palloc, pg_malloc, etc. that
encapsulate common usage patterns and provide more type safety.

Specifically, this adds palloc_object(), palloc_array(), and
repalloc_array(), which take the type name of the object to be
allocated as its first argument and cast the return as a pointer to
that type.  There are also palloc0_object() and palloc0_array()
variants for initializing with zero, and pg_malloc_*() variants of all
of the above.

Inspired by the talloc library.

Michael Paquier 53332eacaf Simplify handling of compression level with compression specifications
PG_COMPRESSION_OPTION_LEVEL is removed from the compression
specification logic, and instead the compression level is always
assigned with each library's default if nothing is directly given.  This
centralizes the checks on the compression methods supported by a given
build, and always assigns a default compression level when parsing a
compression specification.  This results in complaining at an earlier
stage than previously if a build supports a compression method or not,
aka when parsing a specification in the backend or the frontend, and not
when processing it.  zstd, lz4 and zlib are able to handle in their
respective routines setting up the compression level the case of a
default value, hence the backend or frontend code (pg_receivewal or
pg_basebackup) has now no need to know what the default compression
level should be if nothing is specified: the logic is now done so as the
specification parsing assigns it.  It can also be enforced by passing
down a "level" set to the default value, that the backend will accept
(the replication protocol is for example able to handle a command like
BASE_BACKUP (COMPRESSION_DETAIL 'gzip:level=-1')).

This code simplification fixes an issue with pg_basebackup --gzip
introduced by ffd5365, where the tarball of the streamed WAL segments
would be created as of pg_wal.tar.gz with uncompressed contents, while
the intention is to compress the segments with gzip at a default level.
The origin of the confusion comes from the handling of the default
compression level of gzip (-1 or Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION) and the value of
0 was getting assigned, which is what walmethods.c would consider
as equivalent to no compression when streaming WAL segments with its tar
methods.  Assigning always the compression level removes the confusion
of some code paths considering a value of 0 set in a specification as
either no compression or a default compression level.

Note that 010_pg_basebackup.pl has to be adjusted to skip a few tests
where the shape of the compression detail string for client and
server-side compression was checked using gzip.  This is a result of the
code simplification, as gzip specifications cannot be used if a build
does not support it.

Locale options can be specified for initdb, createdb, and CREATE

        struct varchar_2  { int len; char arr[ 20 ]; }  str2 ;
        struct varchar_3  { int len; char arr[ 30 ]; }  str3 ;

thus losing the storage attribute for the later variables.
Repeat the declaration for each such variable.

(Note that this occurred only for variables declared "varchar"
or "bytea", which may help explain how it escaped detection
for so long.)

Tom Lane e0636ca90b Doc: improve documentation about where the psqlrc files are.
Remove no-longer-accurate claim that Windows lacks home directories.
Clarify the text by more clearly distinguishing which statements
reflect hard-wired choices versus which ones reflect overridable
defaults.  Update the examples of version-specific file names,
and make them track future version changes by using "&majorversion;"
and "&version;".  (BTW, in devel and beta releases this method
correctly says that you can use strings like "16devel" and "15beta4"
as minor version identifiers.)

Back-patch to v15, but not further, with the thought that in older
releases the examples with three-part version numbers still had
some historical relevance.  v15 will be the first major release after
the last 9.x branch went out of support.

Tom Lane 100a8ca2c2 Reject bogus output from uuid_create(3).
When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects
uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID.  FreeBSD still does so,
but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4
(random) UUID instead.  That's not acceptable for our purposes:
if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1.
Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'.

Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation
is usable.  It might be, depending on which OS version you're using,
but we're not going to get into that kind of detail.

(Maybe someday we should ditch all these external libraries
and just write our own UUID code, but today is not that day.)

Nazir Bilal Yavuz, with cosmetic adjustments and docs by me.
Backpatch to all supported versions.

Doc fixes for MERGE statement
In commit 3d895bc846 I introduced a bogus semicolon mid-statement by
careless cut-n-paste; move it.  This had already been reported by Justin
Pryzby.

Also, change the styling a bit by avoiding names in CamelCase.  This is

Fix GetForeignKey*Triggers for self-referential FKs
Because of inadequate filtering, the check triggers were confusing the
search for action triggers in GetForeignKeyActionTriggers and vice-versa
in GetForeignKeyCheckTriggers; this confusion results in seemingly
random assertion failures, and can have real impact in non-asserting
builds depending on catalog order.  Change these functions so that they
correctly ignore triggers that are not relevant to each side.

To reduce the odds of further problems, do not break out of the
searching loop in assertion builds.  This break is likely to hide bugs;
without it, we would have detected this bug immediately.

This problem was introduced by f4566345cf, so backpatch to 15 where
that commit first appeared.

Michael Paquier 0a7c9ee500 Add more error context to RestoreBlockImage() and consume it
On failure in restoring a block image, no details were provided, while
it is possible to see failure with an inconsistent record state, a
failure in processing decompression or a failure in decompression
because a build does not support this option.

RestoreBlockImage() is used in two code paths in the backend code,
during recovery and when checking a page consistency after applying
masking, and both places are changed to consume the error message
produced by the internal routine when it returns a false status.  All
the error messages are reported under ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR, that gets
used also when attempting to access a page compressed by a method
not supported by the build attempting the decompression.  This is
something that can happen in core when doing physical replication with
primary and standby using inconsistent build options, for example.

This routine is available since 2c03216d and it has never provided any
context about the error happening when it failed.  This change is
justified even more after 57aa5b2, that introduced compression of FPWs
in WAL.

Choose FK name correctly during partition attachment
During ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION, if the name of a parent's foreign
key constraint is already used on the partition, the code tries to
choose another one before the FK attributes list has been populated,
so the resulting constraint name was "<relname>__fkey" instead of
"<relname>_<attrs>_fkey".  Repair, and add a test case.

Backpatch to 12.  In 11, the code to attach a partition was not smart
enough to cope with conflicting constraint names, so the problem doesn't
exist there.

Thomas Munro dd38ff28ad Fix recovery_prefetch with low maintenance_io_concurrency.
We should process completed IOs *before* trying to start more, so that
it is always possible to decode one more record when the decoded record
queue is empty, even if maintenance_io_concurrency is set so low that a
single earlier WAL record might have saturated the IO queue.

That bug was hidden because the effect of maintenance_io_concurrency was
arbitrarily clamped to be at least 2.  Fix the ordering, and also remove
that clamp.  We need a special case for 0, which is now treated the same
as recovery_prefetch=off, but otherwise the number is used directly.
This allows for testing with 1, which would have made the problem
obvious in simple test scenarios.

Also add an explicit error message for missing contrecords.  It was a
bit strange that we didn't report an error already, and became a latent
bug with prefetching, since the internal state that tracks aborted
contrecords would not survive retrying, as revealed by
026_overwrite_contrecord.pl with this adjustment.  Reporting an error
prevents that.

Back-patch to 15.
