9e3755ecb2 Remove useless duplicate inclusions of system header files.
c.h #includes a number of core libc header files, such as <stdio.h>.
There's no point in re-including these after having read postgres.h,
postgres_fe.h, or c.h; so remove code that did so.

While at it, also fix some places that were ignoring our standard pattern
of "include postgres[_fe].h, then system header files, then other Postgres
header files".  While there's not any great magic in doing it that way
rather than system headers last, it's silly to have just a few files
deviating from the general pattern.  (But I didn't attempt to enforce this
globally, only in files I was touching anyway.)

I'd be the first to say that this is mostly compulsive neatnik-ism,
but over time it might save enough compile cycles to be useful.

c29aff959d Consistently declare timestamp variables as TimestampTz.
Twiddle the replication-related code so that its timestamp variables
are declared TimestampTz, rather than the uninformative "int64" that
was previously used for meant-to-be-always-integer timestamps.
This resolves the int64-vs-TimestampTz declaration inconsistencies
introduced by commit 7c030783a, though in the opposite direction to
what was originally suggested.

This required including datatype/timestamp.h in a couple more places
than before.  I decided it would be a good idea to slim down that
header by not having it pull in <float.h> etc, as those headers are
no longer at all relevant to its purpose.  Unsurprisingly, a small number
of .c files turn out to have been depending on those inclusions, so add
them back in the .c files as needed.

9e43e8714c Fix contrib/pg_trgm's extraction of trigrams from regular expressions.
The logic for removing excess trigrams from the result was faulty.
It intends to avoid merging the initial and final states of the NFA,
which is necessary, but in testing whether removal of a specific trigram
would cause that, it failed to consider the combined effects of all the
state merges that that trigram's removal would cause.  This could result
in a broken final graph that would never match anything, leading to GIN
or GiST indexscans not finding anything.

To fix, add a "tentParent" field that is used only within this loop,
and set it to show state merges that we are tentatively going to do.
While examining a particular arc, we must chase up through tentParent
links as well as regular parent links (the former can only appear atop
the latter), and we must account for state init/fin flag merges that
haven't actually been done yet.

To simplify the latter, combine the separate init and fin bool fields
into a bitmap flags field.  I also chose to get rid of the "children"
state list, which seems entirely inessential.

Per bug #14563 from Alexey Isayko, which the added test cases are based on.
Back-patch to 9.3 where this code was added.

04aad40186 Drop support for Python 2.3
There is no specific reason for this right now, but keeping support for
old Python versions around indefinitely increases the maintenance
burden.  The oldest supported Python version is now Python 2.4, which is
still shipped in RHEL/CentOS 5 by default.

In configure, add a check for the required Python version and give a
friendly error message for an old version, instead of relying on an
obscure build error later on.

This module was intended to ease migrations of applications that used
the pre-8.3 version of text search to the in-core version introduced
in that release.  However, since all pre-8.3 releases of the database
have been out of support for more than 5 years at this point, we
expect that few people are depending on it at this point.  If some
people still need it, nothing prevents it from being maintained as a
separate extension, outside of core.

fc8219dc54 pageinspect: Fix hash_bitmap_info not to read the underlying page.
It did that to verify that the page was an overflow page rather than
anything else, but that means that checking the status of all the
overflow bits requires reading the entire index.  So don't do that.
The new code validates that the page is not a primary bucket page

86d911ec0f Allow index AMs to cache data across aminsert calls within a SQL command.
It's always been possible for index AMs to cache data across successive
amgettuple calls within a single SQL command: the IndexScanDesc.opaque
field is meant for precisely that.  However, no comparable facility
exists for amortizing setup work across successive aminsert calls.
This patch adds such a feature and teaches GIN, GIST, and BRIN to use it
to amortize catalog lookups they'd previously been doing on every call.
(The other standard index AMs keep everything they need in the relcache,
so there's little to improve there.)

For GIN, the overall improvement in a statement that inserts many rows
can be as much as 10%, though it seems a bit less for the other two.
In addition, this makes a really significant difference in runtime
for CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS tests, since in those builds the repeated
catalog lookups are vastly more expensive.

The reason this has been hard up to now is that the aminsert function is
not passed any useful place to cache per-statement data.  What I chose to
do is to add suitable fields to struct IndexInfo and pass that to aminsert.
That's not widening the index AM API very much because IndexInfo is already
within the ken of ambuild; in fact, by passing the same info to aminsert
as to ambuild, this is really removing an inconsistency in the AM API.

293e24e507 Cache hash index's metapage in rel->rd_amcache.
This avoids a very significant amount of buffer manager traffic and
contention when scanning hash indexes, because it's no longer
necessary to lock and pin the metapage for every scan.  We do need
some way of figuring out when the cache is too stale to use any more,
so that when we lock the primary bucket page to which the cached
metapage points us, we can tell whether a split has occurred since we
cached the metapage data.  To do that, we use the hash_prevblkno field
in the primary bucket page, which would otherwise always be set to
InvalidBuffer.

This patch contains code so that it will continue working (although
less efficiently) with hash indexes built before this change, but
perhaps we should consider bumping the hash version and ripping out
the compatibility code.  That decision can be made later, though.

integer type (since we have no unsigned types at the SQL level).
At the SQL level, this results a change to report itemoffset as

that is an OID as type oid.  Under the hood, uniformly use macros
that match the SQL output type as to both width and signedness.

14e9b18fed In pageinspect/hashfuncs.c, avoid crashes on alignment-picky machines.
On machines with MAXALIGN = 8, the payload of a bytea is not maxaligned,
since it will start 4 bytes into a palloc'd value.  On alignment-picky
hardware, this will cause failures in accesses to 8-byte-wide values
within the page.  We already encountered this problem when we introduced
GIN index inspection functions, and fixed it in commit 84ad68d64.  Make
use of the same function for hash indexes.

A small difficulty is that up to now contrib/pageinspect has not shared
any functions at all across files.  To support that, introduce a common
header file "pageinspect.h" for the module.

Also, move get_page_from_raw() out of ginfuncs.c, where it didn't
especially belong, and put it in rawpage.c which seems a more natural home.

c6eeb67dcc Fix a bunch more portability bugs in commit 08bf6e529.
It seems like somebody used a dartboard while choosing integer widths
for the various values taken and returned by these functions ... and
then threw a fresh set of darts while writing the SQL declarations.

This patch brings the C code into line with what the SQL declarations
say, which is enough to make it not dump core on the particular 32-bit
machine I'm testing on.  But I think we could do with another round
of looking at what the datum widths *should* be.  For instance, it's
not all that sensible that hash_bitmap_info decided to use int64 to
represent a BlockNumber input when get_raw_page doesn't do it that way.

There's also a remaining problem that the expected outputs from the
test script are platform-dependent, but I'll leave that issue for
somebody else.

dbd69118c0 Replace isMD5() with a more future-proof way to check if pw is encrypted.
The rule is that if pg_authid.rolpassword begins with "md5" and has the
right length, it's an MD5 hash, otherwise it's a plaintext password. The
idiom has been to use isMD5() to check for that, but that gets awkward,
when we add new kinds of verifiers, like the verifiers for SCRAM
authentication in the pending SCRAM patch set. Replace isMD5() with a new
get_password_type() function, so that when new verifier types are added, we
don't need to remember to modify every place that currently calls isMD5(),
to also recognize the new kinds of verifiers.

Also, use the new plain_crypt_verify function in passwordcheck, so that it
doesn't need to know about MD5, or in the future, about other kinds of
hashes or password verifiers.

ab1f0c8225 Change representation of statement lists, and add statement location info.
This patch makes several changes that improve the consistency of
representation of lists of statements.  It's always been the case
that the output of parse analysis is a list of Query nodes, whatever
the types of the individual statements in the list.  This patch brings
similar consistency to the outputs of raw parsing and planning steps:

* The output of raw parsing is now always a list of RawStmt nodes;
the statement-type-dependent nodes are one level down from that.

* The output of pg_plan_queries() is now always a list of PlannedStmt
nodes, even for utility statements.  In the case of a utility statement,
"planning" just consists of wrapping a CMD_UTILITY PlannedStmt around
the utility node.  This list representation is now used in Portal and
CachedPlan plan lists, replacing the former convention of intermixing
PlannedStmts with bare utility-statement nodes.

Now, every list of statements has a consistent head-node type depending
on how far along it is in processing.  This allows changing many places
that formerly used generic "Node *" pointers to use a more specific
pointer type, thus reducing the number of IsA() tests and casts needed,
as well as improving code clarity.

Also, the post-parse-analysis representation of DECLARE CURSOR is changed
so that it looks more like EXPLAIN, PREPARE, etc.  That is, the contained
SELECT remains a child of the DeclareCursorStmt rather than getting flipped
around to be the other way.  It's now true for both Query and PlannedStmt
that utilityStmt is non-null if and only if commandType is CMD_UTILITY.
That allows simplifying a lot of places that were testing both fields.
(I think some of those were just defensive programming, but in many places,
it was actually necessary to avoid confusing DECLARE CURSOR with SELECT.)

Because PlannedStmt carries a canSetTag field, we're also able to get rid
of some ad-hoc rules about how to reconstruct canSetTag for a bare utility
statement; specifically, the assumption that a utility is canSetTag if and
only if it's the only one in its list.  While I see no near-term need for
relaxing that restriction, it's nice to get rid of the ad-hocery.

The API of ProcessUtility() is changed so that what it's passed is the
wrapper PlannedStmt not just the bare utility statement.  This will affect
all users of ProcessUtility_hook, but the changes are pretty trivial; see
the affected contrib modules for examples of the minimum change needed.
(Most compilers should give pointer-type-mismatch warnings for uncorrected
code.)

There's also a change in the API of ExplainOneQuery_hook, to pass through
cursorOptions instead of expecting hook functions to know what to pick.
This is needed because of the DECLARE CURSOR changes, but really should
have been done in 9.6; it's unlikely that any extant hook functions
know about using CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK.

Finally, teach gram.y to save statement boundary locations in RawStmt
nodes, and pass those through to Query and PlannedStmt nodes.  This allows
more intelligent handling of cases where a source query string contains
multiple statements.  This patch doesn't actually do anything with the
information, but a follow-on patch will.  (Passing this information through
cleanly is the true motivation for these changes; while I think this is all
good cleanup, it's unlikely we'd have bothered without this end goal.)

catversion bump because addition of location fields to struct Query
affects stored rules.

This patch is by me, but it owes a good deal to Fabien Coelho who did
a lot of preliminary work on the problem, and also reviewed the patch.

c52d37c8b3 Invalidate cached plans on FDW option changes.
This fixes problems where a plan must change but fails to do so,
as seen in a bug report from Rajkumar Raghuwanshi.

For ALTER FOREIGN TABLE OPTIONS, do this through the standard method of
forcing a relcache flush on the table.  For ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER
and ALTER SERVER, just flush the whole plan cache on any change in
pg_foreign_data_wrapper or pg_foreign_server.  That matches the way
we handle some other low-probability cases such as opclass changes, and
it's unclear that the case arises often enough to be worth working harder.
Besides, that gives a patch that is simple enough to back-patch with
confidence.

Back-patch to 9.3.  In principle we could apply the code change to 9.2 as
well, but (a) we lack postgres_fdw to test it with, (b) it's doubtful that
anyone is doing anything exciting enough with FDWs that far back to need
this desperately, and (c) the patch doesn't apply cleanly.

2f802d95b4 Make dblink try harder to form useful error messages
When libpq encounters a connection-level error, e.g. runs out of memory
while forming a result, there will be no error associated with PGresult,
but a message will be placed into PGconn's error buffer. postgres_fdw
takes care to use the PGconn error message when PGresult does not have
one, but dblink has been negligent in that regard. Modify dblink to mirror
what postgres_fdw has been doing.

Back-patch to all supported branches.

c444868389 Protect dblink from invalid options when using postgres_fdw server
When dblink uses a postgres_fdw server name for its connection, it
is possible for the connection to have options that are invalid
with dblink (e.g. "updatable"). The recommended way to avoid this
problem is to use dblink_fdw servers instead. However there are use
cases for using postgres_fdw, and possibly other FDWs, for dblink
connection options, therefore protect against trying to use any
options that do not apply by using is_valid_dblink_option() when
building the connection string from the options.

Back-patch to 9.3. Although 9.2 supports FDWs for connection info,
is_valid_dblink_option() did not yet exist, and neither did
postgres_fdw, at least in the postgres source tree. Given the lack
of previous complaints, fixing that seems too invasive/not worth it.

b86515da1a Give a useful error message if uuid-ossp is built without preconfiguration.
Before commit b8cc8f947, it was possible to build contrib/uuid-ossp without
having told configure you meant to; you could just cd into that directory
and "make".  That no longer works because the code depends on configure to
have done header and library probes, but the ensuing error messages are
not so easy to interpret if you're not an old C hand.  We've gotten a
couple of complaints recently from people trying to do this the low-tech
way, so add an explicit #error directing the user to use --with-uuid.

(In principle we might want to do something similar in the other
optionally-built contrib modules; but I don't think any of the others have
ever worked without preconfiguration, so there are no bad habits to break
people of.)

Back-patch to 9.4 where the previous commit came in.

ea0aa9698c Improve dblink error message when remote does not provide it
When dblink or postgres_fdw detects an error on the remote side of the
connection, it will try to construct a local error message as best it
can using libpq's PQresultErrorField(). When no primary message is
available, it was bailing out with an unhelpful "unknown error". Make
that message better and more style guide compliant. Per discussion
on hackers.

Backpatch to 9.2 except postgres_fdw which didn't exist before 9.3.

4a0a34b5b6 In contrib/uuid-ossp, #include headers needed for ntohl() and ntohs().
Oversight in commit b8cc8f947.  I just noticed this causes compiler
warnings on FreeBSD, and it really ought to cause warnings elsewhere too:
all references I can find say that <arpa/inet.h> is required for these.
We have a lot of code elsewhere that thinks that both <netinet/in.h>
and <arpa/inet.h> should be included for these functions, so do it that
way here too, even though <arpa/inet.h> ought to be sufficient according
to the references I consulted.

Back-patch to 9.4 where the previous commit landed.

23f722ba8e Fix race condition in test_decoding "slot" test.
This test, just added in commit a924c327e, sometimes fails because
the old backend hasn't finished dropping the temporary replication slot
when the new backend looks.  Borrow the previously-invented methodology
for waiting for the old process to disappear from pg_stat_activity.
