Fix a couple of minor oversights in commit 632b03da3: the tests
should be run in database "pl_regression" like the other PLs do,
and we should clean up the tests' output cruft during "make clean".
The previous commit has shown that the sanity checks around freezing
aren't strong enough. Strengthening them seems especially important
because the existance of the bug has caused corruption that we don't
want to make even worse during future vacuum cycles.
The errors are emitted with ereport rather than elog, despite being
"should never happen" messages, so a proper error code is emitted. To
avoid superflous translations, mark messages as internal.

Backpatch: 9.3-
Previously it was possible that a tuple was not pruned during vacuum,
even though its update xmax (i.e. the updating xid in a multixact with
both key share lockers and an updater) was below the cutoff horizon.
As the freezing code assumed, rightly so, that that's not supposed to
happen, xmax would be preserved (as a member of a new multixact or
xmax directly). That causes two problems: For one the tuple is below
the xmin horizon, which can cause problems if the clog is truncated or
once there's an xid wraparound. The bigger problem is that that will
break HOT chains, which in turn can lead two to breakages: First,
failing index lookups, which in turn can e.g lead to constraints being
violated. Second, future hot prunes / vacuums can end up making
invisible tuples visible again. There's other harmful scenarios.
Fix the problem by recognizing that tuples can be DEAD instead of
RECENTLY_DEAD, even if the multixactid has alive members, if the
update_xid is below the xmin horizon. That's safe because newer
versions of the tuple will contain the locking xids.
A followup commit will harden the code somewhat against future similar
bugs and already corrupted data.

The logical slots have a fast code path for sending data so as not to
impose too high a per message overhead. The fast path skips checks for
interrupts and timeouts. However, the existing coding failed to consider
the fact that a transaction with a large number of changes may take a
very long time to be processed and sent to the client. This causes the
walsender to ignore interrupts for potentially a long time and more
importantly it will result in the walsender being killed due to
timeout at the end of such a transaction.
This commit changes the fast path to also check for interrupts and only
allows calling the fast path when the last keepalive check happened less
than half the walsender timeout ago. Otherwise the slower code path will
be taken.

In order for executor nodes to be able to change their ExecProcNode function

any wrappers functions that only execProcnode.c knows about to be reinstalled.
The motivation for wanting to change ExecProcNode after ExecInitNode() has

Crash restarts currently don't clean up temporary files, as a debugging aid.
If a left-over file happens to have the same name as a segment file we're
trying to create, we'll just truncate and reuse it, but there is a problem:
BufFileOpenShared() determines how many segment files exist by trying to open
.0, .1, .2, ... until it finds no more files. It might be confused by a junk
file that has the next segment number. To defend against that, make sure we
always create a gap after the end file by unlinking the following name if it
exists. Also make it an error to try to open a BufFile that doesn't exist
(has no segment 0), so as not to encourage the development of client code
that depends on an interface that we can't reliably provide.

This patch makes a number of interrelated changes to reduce the overhead
involved in creating/deleting memory contexts. The key ideas are:
* Include the AllocSetContext header of an aset.c context in its first
malloc request, rather than allocating it separately in TopMemoryContext.
This means that we now always create an initial or "keeper" block in an
aset, even if it never receives any allocation requests.
* Create freelists in which we can save and recycle recently-destroyed
asets (this idea is due to Robert Haas).
* In the common case where the name of a context is a constant string,
just store a pointer to it in the context header, rather than copying
the string.
The first change eliminates a palloc/pfree cycle per context, and
also avoids bloat in TopMemoryContext, at the price that creating
a context now involves a malloc/free cycle even if the context never
receives any allocations. That would be a loser for some common
usage patterns, but recycling short-lived contexts via the freelist
eliminates that pain.
Avoiding copying constant strings not only saves strlen() and strcpy()
overhead, but is an essential part of the freelist optimization because
it makes the context header size constant. Currently we make no
attempt to use the freelist for contexts with non-constant names.
(Perhaps someday we'll need to think harder about that, but in current
usage, most contexts with custom names are long-lived anyway.)
The freelist management in this initial commit is pretty simplistic,
and we might want to refine it later --- but in common workloads that
will never matter because the freelists will never get full anyway.
To create a context with a non-constant name, one is now required to
call AllocSetContextCreateExtended and specify the MEMCONTEXT_COPY_NAME
option. AllocSetContextCreate becomes a wrapper macro, and it includes
a test that will complain about non-string-literal context name
parameters on gcc and similar compilers.
An unfortunate side effect of making AllocSetContextCreate a macro is
that one is now *required* to use the size parameter abstraction macros
(ALLOCSET_DEFAULT_SIZES and friends) with it; the pre-9.6 habit of
writing out individual size parameters no longer works unless you
switch to AllocSetContextCreateExtended.
Internally to the memory-context-related modules, the context creation
APIs are simplified, removing the rather baroque original design whereby
a context-type module called mcxt.c which then called back into the
context-type module. That saved a bit of code duplication, but not much,
and it prevented context-type modules from exercising control over the
allocation of context headers.
In passing, I converted the test-and-elog validation of aset size
parameters into Asserts to save a few more cycles. The original thought
was that callers might compute size parameters on the fly, but in practice
nobody does that, so it's useless to expend cycles on checking those
numbers in production builds.
Also, mark the memory context method-pointer structs "const",
just for cleanliness.

The plpgsql.sql test file in the main regression tests is now by far the
largest after numeric_big, making editing and managing the test cases
very cumbersome. The other PLs have their own test suites split up into
smaller files by topic. It would be nice to have that for plpgsql as
well. So, to get that started, set up test infrastructure in
src/pl/plpgsql/src/ and split out the recently added procedure test
cases into a new file there. That file now mirrors the test cases added
to the other PLs, making managing those matching tests a bit easier too.

I noticed that _SPI_execute_plan initially sets spierrcontext.arg = NULL,
and only fills it in some time later. If an error were to happen in
between, _SPI_error_callback would try to dereference the null pointer.
This is unlikely --- there's not much between those points except
push-snapshot calls --- but it's clearly not impossible. Tweak the
callback to do nothing if the pointer isn't set yet.
It's been like this for awhile, so back-patch to all supported branches.
The test added by commit 390d58135 turns out to have different output
in CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS builds: there's an extra CONTEXT line in the
error message as a result of detecting the error at a different place.
Possibly we should do something to make that more consistent. But as
a stopgap measure to make the buildfarm green again, adjust the test
to suppress CONTEXT entirely. We can revert this if we do something
in the backend to eliminate the inconsistency.

If one exits and re-enters a DECLARE ... BEGIN ... END block within a
single execution of a plpgsql function, perhaps due to a surrounding loop,
the declared variables are supposed to get re-initialized to null (or
whatever their initializer is). But this failed to happen for variables
of type "record", because while exec_stmt_block() expected such variables
to be included in the block's initvarnos list, plpgsql_add_initdatums()
only adds DTYPE_VAR variables to that list. This bug appears to have
been there since the aboriginal addition of plpgsql to our tree.
Fix by teaching plpgsql_add_initdatums() to include DTYPE_REC variables
as well. (We don't need to consider other DTYPEs because they don't
represent separately-stored values.) I failed to resist the temptation
to make some nearby cosmetic adjustments, too.
No back-patch, because there have not been field complaints, and it
seems possible that somewhere out there someone has code depending
on the incorrect behavior. In any case this change would have no
impact on correctly-written code.

The chief alternative was a heuristic of adding -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T when

The GNU make build system could benefit from a similar test, without
which it does not support MSVC-built Perl. For now, just add a comment.
Most users taking the special step of building Perl with MSVC probably

Bug: #14866
plpgsql's function exec_move_row() handles assignment of a composite
source value to either a PLpgSQL_rec or PLpgSQL_row target variable.
Oddly, rather than taking a single target argument which it could do
run-time type detection on, it was coded to take two separate arguments
(only one of which is allowed to be non-NULL). This choice had then
back-propagated into storing two separate target variables in various
plpgsql statement nodes, with lots of duplicative coding and awkward
interface logic to support that. Simplify matters by folding those
pairs down to single variables, distinguishing the two cases only
where we must ... which turns out to be only in exec_move_row itself.
This is purely refactoring and should not change any behavior.

Bug: #14952
When a worker is flagged as BGW_NEVER_RESTART and we fail to start it,
or if it is not marked BGW_NEVER_RESTART but is terminated before
startup succeeds, what BgwHandleStatus should be reported? The
previous code really hadn't considered this possibility (as indicated
by the comments which ignore it completely) and would typically return
BGWH_NOT_YET_STARTED, but that's not a good answer, because then
there's no way for code using GetBackgroundWorkerPid() to tell the
difference between a worker that has not started but will start
later and a worker that has not started and will never be started.
So, when this case happens, return BGWH_STOPPED instead. Update the
comments to reflect this.
The preceding fix by itself is insufficient to fix the problem,
because the old code also didn't send a notification to the process
identified in bgw_notify_pid when startup failed. That might've
been technically correct under the theory that the status of the
worker was BGWH_NOT_YET_STARTED, because the status would indeed not
change when the worker failed to start, but now that we're more
usefully reporting BGWH_STOPPED, a notification is needed.
Without these fixes, code which starts background workers and then
uses the recommended APIs to wait for those background workers to
start would hang indefinitely if the postmaster failed to fork a
worker.

I suppose it is a copy-and-paste error that this test doesn't actually
test the "Parallel Append with both partial and non-partial subplans"
case (EXPLAIN alone surely doesn't qualify as a test of executor
behavior). Fix that.
Also, add cosmetic aliases to make it possible to tell apart these
otherwise-identical test cases in log_statement output.
When we create an Append node, we can spread out the workers over the
subplans instead of piling on to each subplan one at a time, which
should typically be a bit more efficient, both because the startup
cost of any plan executed entirely by one worker is paid only once and
also because of reduced contention. We can also construct Append
plans using a mix of partial and non-partial subplans, which may allow
for parallelism in places that otherwise couldn't support it.
Unfortunately, this patch doesn't handle the important case of
parallelizing UNION ALL by running each branch in a separate worker;
the executor infrastructure is added here, but more planner work is
needed.

If a hash join appears in a parallel query, there may be no hash table

been built in other processes. This could happen either because
parallel_leader_participation was set to off or because the leader

the complete relation is not empty) and decided not to build the hash
table.
Commit bf11e7ee introduced a way for workers to exchange

Previously, this code just reported such problems at LOG level and kept
going. The problem with this approach is that transient failures (e.g.,
ENFILE) could prevent us from resetting unlogged relations to empty,
yet allow recovery to appear to complete successfully. That seems like
a data corruption hazard large enough to treat such problems as reasons
to fail startup.
For the same reason, treat unlink failures for unlogged files as hard
errors not just LOG messages. It's a little odd that we did it like that
when file-level errors in other steps (copy_file, fsync_fname) are ERRORs.
The sole case that I left alone is that ENOENT failure on a tablespace
(not database) directory is not an error, though it will now be logged
rather than just silently ignored. This is to cover the scenario where
a previous DROP TABLESPACE removed the tablespace directory but failed
before removing the pg_tblspc symlink. I'm not sure that that's very
likely in practice, but that seems like the only real excuse for the
old behavior here, so let's allow for it. (As coded, this will also
allow ENOENT on $PGDATA/base/. But since we'll fail soon enough if
that's gone, I don't think we need to complicate this code by
distinguishing that from a true tablespace case.)

do_pg_start_backup() expects its callers to pass in an open DIR pointer
for the pg_tblspc directory, but there's no apparent advantage in that.
It complicates the callers without adding any flexibility, and there's no
robustness advantage, since we surely have to be prepared for errors during
the scan of pg_tblspc anyway. In fact, by holding an extra kernel resource
during operations like the preliminary checkpoint, we might be making
things a fraction more failure-prone not less. Hence, remove that argument
and open the directory just for the duration of the actual scan.

Modify this function and its subsidiaries so that syscall failures are
reported via ereport(LOG), rather than silently ignored as before.
We don't want to throw a hard ERROR, as that would prevent database
startup, and getting rid of leftover temporary files is not important
enough for that. On the other hand, not reporting trouble at all
seems like an odd choice not in line with current project norms,
especially since any failure here is quite unexpected.
On the same reasoning, adjust these functions' AllocateDir/ReadDir calls
so that failure to scan a directory results in LOG not ERROR. I also
removed the previous practice of silently ignoring ENOENT failures during
directory opens --- there are some corner cases where that could happen
given a previous database crash, but that seems like a bad excuse for
ignoring a condition that isn't expected in most cases. A LOG message
during postmaster start seems OK in such situations, and better than
no output at all.
In passing, make RemovePgTempRelationFiles' test for "is the file name
all digits" look more like the way it's done elsewhere.

This patch fixes a couple of low-probability bugs that could lead to
reporting an irrelevant errno value (and hence possibly a wrong SQLSTATE)
concerning directory-open or file-open failures. It also fixes places
where we took shortcuts in reporting such errors, either by using elog
instead of ereport or by using ereport but forgetting to specify an
errcode. And it eliminates a lot of just plain redundant error-handling
code.
In service of all this, export fd.c's formerly-static function
ReadDirExtended, so that external callers can make use of the coding
pattern
dir = AllocateDir(path);
while ((de = ReadDirExtended(dir, path, LOG)) != NULL)
if they'd like to treat directory-open failures as mere LOG conditions
rather than errors. Also fix FreeDir to be a no-op if we reach it
with dir == NULL, as such a coding pattern would cause.
Then, remove code at many call sites that was throwing an error or log
message for AllocateDir failure, as ReadDir or ReadDirExtended can handle
that job just fine. Aside from being a net code savings, this gets rid of
a lot of not-quite-up-to-snuff reports, as mentioned above. (In some
places these changes result in replacing a custom error message such as
"could not open tablespace directory" with more generic wording "could not
open directory", but it was agreed that the custom wording buys little as
long as we report the directory name.) In some other call sites where we
can't just remove code, change the error reports to be fully
project-style-compliant.
Also reorder code in restoreTwoPhaseData that was acquiring a lock
between AllocateDir and ReadDir; in the unlikely but surely not
impossible case that LWLockAcquire changes errno, AllocateDir failures
would be misreported. There is no great value in opening the directory
before acquiring TwoPhaseStateLock, so just do it in the other order.
Also fix CheckXLogRemoved to guarantee that it preserves errno,
as quite a number of call sites are implicitly assuming. (Again,
it's unlikely but I think not impossible that errno could change
during a SpinLockAcquire. If so, this function was broken for its
own purposes as well as breaking callers.)
And change a few places that were using not-per-project-style messages,
such as "could not read directory" when "could not open directory" is
more correct.
Back-patch the exporting of ReadDirExtended, in case we have occasion
to back-patch some fix that makes use of it; it's not needed right now
but surely making it global is pretty harmless. Also back-patch the
restoreTwoPhaseData and CheckXLogRemoved fixes. The rest of this is
essentially cosmetic and need not get back-patched.

There's no good reason that the multicolumn stats stuff shouldn't work on

"NOT boolvar" respectively. Improve dependencies_clauselist_selectivity()

This fixes a failure of the extended stats mechanism to apply in a case
