dblink and postgres_fdw use SHLIB_PREREQS = submake-libpq to build libpq
first. This doesn't work in a PGXS build, because there is no libpq to
build. So just omit setting SHLIB_PREREQS in this case.
Note that PGXS users can still use SHLIB_PREREQS (although it is not
documented). The problem here is only that contrib modules can be built
in-tree or using PGXS, and the prerequisite is only applicable in the
former case.
Commit 6697aa2bc2 previously attempted to
address this by creating a somewhat fake submake-libpq target in
Makefile.global. That was not the right fix, and it was also done in a
nonportable way, so revert that.
Since this is not something that a user should change,
pg_config_manual.h was an inappropriate place for it.
In initdb.c, remove the use of the macro, because utils/guc.h can't be
included by non-backend code. But we hardcode all the other
configuration file names there, so this isn't a disaster.
Transactions can now set their commit timestamp directly as they commit,
or an external transaction commit timestamp can be fed from an outside
system using the new function TransactionTreeSetCommitTsData(). This
data is crash-safe, and truncated at Xid freeze point, same as pg_clog.
This module is disabled by default because it causes a performance hit,
but can be enabled in postgresql.conf requiring only a server restart.

check-world failed in a completely clean tree, because src/test/modules
fail to build unless errcodes.h is generated first. To fix this,
install a dependency in src/test/modules' Makefile so that the necessary
file is generated. Even with this, running "make check" within
individual module subdirs will still fail because the dependency is not
considered there, but this case is less interesting and would be messier
to fix.
check-world still failed with the above fix in place, this time because
dummy_seclabel used LOAD to load the dynamic library, which doesn't work
because the @libdir@ (expanded by the makefile) is expanded to the final
install path, not the temporary installation directory used by make
check. To fix, tweak things so that CREATE EXTENSION can be used
instead, which solves the problem because the library path is expanded
by the backend, which is aware of the true libdir.
Make the error messages issued by array_in() uniformly follow the style
ERROR: malformed array literal: "actual input string"
DETAIL: specific complaint here
and rewrite many of the specific complaints to be clearer.
The immediate motivation for doing this is a complaint from Josh Berkus
that json_to_record() produced an unintelligible error message when
dealing with an array item, because it tries to feed the JSON-format
array value to array_in(). Really it ought to be smart enough to
perform JSON-to-Postgres array conversion, but that's a future feature
not a bug fix. In the meantime, this change is something we agreed
we could back-patch into 9.4, and it should help de-confuse things a bit.
The logical decoding patchset introduced PROC_IN_LOGICAL_DECODING flag
PGXACT flag, that allows such backends to be skipped when computing
the xmin horizon/snapshots. That's fine and sensible for walsenders
streaming out logical changes, but not at all fine for SQL backends
doing logical decoding. If the latter set that flag any change they
have performed outside of logical decoding will not be regarded as
visible - which e.g. can lead to that change being vacuumed away.
Note that not setting the flag for SQL backends isn't particularly
bothersome - the SQL backend doesn't do streaming, so it only runs for
a limited amount of time.
Per buildfarm member 'tick' and Alvaro.
Backpatch to 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced.
Davide S. reported that json_agg() sometimes produced multiple trailing
right brackets. This turns out to be because json_agg_finalfn() attaches
the final right bracket, and was doing so by modifying the aggregate state
in-place. That's verboten, though unfortunately it seems there's no way
for nodeAgg.c to check for such mistakes.
Fix that back to 9.3 where the broken code was introduced. In 9.4 and
HEAD, likewise fix json_object_agg(), which had copied the erroneous logic.
Make some cosmetic cleanups as well.
Get rid of PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1() macros, which are quite inappropriate
for built-in functions (possibly leftovers from testing as a loadable
module?). Also, fix gratuitous inconsistency between SQL-level and
C-level names of the minmax support functions.
We were not checking to see if the supplied dscale was valid for the given
digit array when receiving binary-format numeric values. While dscale can
validly be more than the number of nonzero fractional digits, it shouldn't
be less; that case causes fractional digits to be hidden on display even
though they're there and participate in arithmetic.
Bug #12053 from Tommaso Sala indicates that there's at least one broken
client library out there that sometimes supplies an incorrect dscale value,
leading to strange behavior. This suggests that simply throwing an error
might not be the best response; it would lead to failures in applications
that might seem to be working fine today. What seems the least risky fix
is to truncate away any digits that would be hidden by dscale. This
preserves the existing behavior in terms of what will be printed for the
transmitted value, while preventing subsequent arithmetic from producing
results inconsistent with that.
In passing, throw a specific error for the case of dscale being outside
the range that will fit into a numeric's header. Before you got "value
overflows numeric format", which is a bit misleading.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
Rather than have the core security_label regression test depend on the
dummy_seclabel module, have that part of the test be executed by
dummy_seclabel itself directly. This simplifies the testing rig a bit;
in particular it should silence the problems from the MSVC buildfarm
phylum, which haven't yet gotten taught how to install src/test/modules.
We expose a function IsValidJsonNumber that internally calls the lexer
for json numbers. That allows us to use the same test everywhere,
instead of inventing a broken test for hstore conversions. The new
function is also used in datum_to_json, replacing the code that is now
moved to the new function.
Backpatch to 9.3 where hstore_to_json_loose was introduced.
Extracted from pending inet selectivity patch. The rest of it isn't
quite ready to commit, but we might as well push this part so the patch

Coverity complained that the "else" added to fillPGconn() was unreachable,
which it was. Remove the dead code. In passing, rearrange the tests so as
not to bother trying to fetch values for options that can't be assigned.
Pre-9.3 did not have that issue, but it did have a "return" that should be
"goto oom_error" to ensure that a suitable error message gets filled in.
This is advance preparation for introducing even more test modules; the
easy solution is to add them to contrib, but that's bloated enough that
it seems a good time to think of something different.
Moved modules are dummy_seclabel, test_shm_mq, test_parser and
worker_spi.
(test_decoding was also a candidate, but there was too much opposition
to moving that one. We can always reconsider later.)

This patch adds a function that replaces a bms_membership() test followed
by a bms_singleton_member() call, performing both the test and the
extraction of a singleton set's member in one scan of the bitmapset.
The performance advantage over the old way is probably minimal in current
usage, but it seems worthwhile on notational grounds anyway.
David Rowley
This patch adds a way of iterating through the members of a bitmapset
nondestructively, unlike the old way with bms_first_member(). While
bms_next_member() is very slightly slower than bms_first_member()
(at least for typical-size bitmapsets), eliminating the need to palloc
and pfree a temporary copy of the target bitmapset is a significant win.
So this method should be preferred in all cases where a temporary copy
would be necessary.
Tom Lane, with suggestions from Dean Rasheed and David Rowley
This function was initially coded on the assumption that it would not be
performance-critical, but that turns out to be wrong in workloads that
are heavily dependent on the speed of plpgsql functions. Speed it up by
hard-coding the comparison rules, thereby avoiding palloc/pfree traffic
from creating and immediately freeing an OverrideSearchPath object.
Per report from Scott Marlowe.
Previously, if the typcache had for example tried and failed to find a hash
opclass for a given data type, it would nonetheless repeat the unsuccessful
catalog lookup each time it was asked again. This can lead to a
significant amount of useless bufmgr traffic, as in a recent report from
Scott Marlowe. Like the catalog caches, typcache should be able to cache
negative results. This patch arranges that by making use of separate flag
bits to remember whether a particular item has been looked up, rather than
treating a zero OID as an indicator that no lookup has been done.
Also, install a credible invalidation mechanism, namely watching for inval
events in pg_opclass. The sole advantage of the lack of negative caching
was that the code would cope if operators or opclasses got added for a type
mid-session; to preserve that behavior we have to be able to invalidate
stale lookup results. Updates in pg_opclass should be pretty rare in
production systems, so it seems sufficient to just invalidate all the
dependent data whenever one happens.
Adding proper invalidation also means that this code will now react sanely
if an opclass is dropped mid-session. Arguably, that's a back-patchable
bug fix, but in view of the lack of complaints from the field I'll refrain
from back-patching. (Probably, in most cases where an opclass is dropped,
the data type itself is dropped soon after, so that this misfeasance has
no bad consequences.)
InitXLogInsert() cannot be called in a critical section, because it
allocates memory. But CreateCheckPoint() did that, when called for the
end-of-recovery checkpoint by the startup process.
In the passing, fix the scratch space allocation in InitXLogInsert to go to
the right memory context. Also update the comment at InitXLOGAccess, which
hasn't been totally accurate since hot standby was introduced (in a hot
standby backend, InitXLOGAccess isn't called at backend startup).

Previously \watch always ignored the user's \pset null setting.
\pset null setting should be ignored for \d and similar queries.
For those, the code can reasonably have an opinion about what
the presentation should be like, since it knows what SQL query
it's issuing. This argument surely doesn't apply to \watch,
so this commit makes \watch use the user's \pset null setting.
Back-patch to 9.3 where \watch was added.
As pointed out by Robert, we should really have named pg_rowsecurity
pg_policy, as the objects stored in that catalog are policies. This
patch fixes that and updates the column names to start with 'pol' to
match the new catalog name.
The security consideration for COPY with row level security, also
pointed out by Robert, has also been addressed by remembering and
re-checking the OID of the relation initially referenced during COPY
processing, to make sure it hasn't changed under us by the time we
finish planning out the query which has been built.
Robert and Alvaro also commented on missing OCLASS and OBJECT entries
for POLICY (formerly ROWSECURITY or POLICY, depending) in various
places. This patch fixes that too, which also happens to add the
ability to COMMENT on policies.
In passing, attempt to improve the consistency of messages, comments,
and documentation as well. This removes various incarnations of
'row-security', 'row-level security', 'Row-security', etc, in favor
of 'policy', 'row level security' or 'row_security' as appropriate.
Happy Thanksgiving!
In passing, add an Assert defending the presumption that bytes_left
is positive to start with. (I'm not exactly convinced that using an
unsigned type was such a bright thing here, but let's at least do
this much.)
Add a bit of context sensitivity to plpgsql_yylex() so that it can
recognize when the word it is looking at is the first word of a new
statement, and if so whether it is the target of an assignment statement.
When we are at start of statement and it's not an assignment, we can
prefer recognizing unreserved keywords over recognizing variable names,
thereby allowing most statements' initial keywords to be demoted from
reserved to unreserved status. This is rather useful already (there are
15 such words that get demoted here), and what's more to the point is
that future patches proposing to add new plpgsql statements can avoid
objections about having to add new reserved words.
The keywords BEGIN, DECLARE, FOR, FOREACH, LOOP, WHILE need to remain
reserved because they can be preceded by block labels, and the logic
added here doesn't understand about block labels. In principle we
could probably fix that, but it would take more than one token of
lookback and the benefit doesn't seem worth extra complexity.
Also note I didn't de-reserve EXECUTE, because it is used in more places
than just statement start. It's possible it could be de-reserved with
more work, but that would be an independent fix.
In passing, also de-reserve COLLATE and DEFAULT, which shouldn't have
been reserved in the first place since they only need to be recognized
within DECLARE sections.
These cases formerly failed with errors about "could not find array type
for data type". Now they yield arrays of the same element type and one
higher dimension.
The implementation involves creating functions with API similar to the
existing accumArrayResult() family. I (tgl) also extended the base family
by adding an initArrayResult() function, which allows callers to avoid
special-casing the zero-inputs case if they just want an empty array as
result. (Not all do, so the previous calling convention remains valid.)
This allowed simplifying some existing code in xml.c and plperl.c.

The old method of appending options to the connection string didn't work if
the primary_conninfo was a postgres:// style URI, instead of a traditional

Alex Shulgin
If the "dbname" attribute in PQconnectDBParams contained a connection string
or URI (and expand_dbname = TRUE), the database name from the connection
string could not be overridden by a subsequent "dbname" keyword in the
array. That was not intentional; all other options can be overridden.
Furthermore, any subsequent "dbname" caused the connection string from the
first dbname value to be processed again, overriding any values for the same
options that were given between the connection string and the second dbname
option.
In the passing, clarify in the docs that only the first dbname option in the
array is parsed as a connection string.

The locution "EXISTS(SELECT ... LIMIT 1)" seems to be rather common among
people who don't realize that the database already performs optimizations
equivalent to putting LIMIT 1 in the sub-select. Unfortunately, this was
actually making things worse, because it prevented us from optimizing such
EXISTS clauses into semi or anti joins. Teach simplify_EXISTS_query() to
suppress constant-positive LIMIT clauses. That fixes the semi/anti-join
case, and may help marginally even for cases that have to be left as
sub-SELECTs.

postgres_fdw would send query conditions involving system columns to the
remote server, even though it makes no effort to ensure that system

Hence, prevent sending conditions that include non-CTID system columns.
Also, create_foreignscan_plan neglected to check local restriction
conditions while determining whether to set fsSystemCol for a foreign

PSQLexec's error reporting turns out to be too verbose for this case, so
revert to using PQexec instead with minimal error reporting. Prior to
calling PQexec, we call a function that mimics just the echo_hidden
piece of PSQLexec.
Make it work more like FDW plans do: instead of assuming that there are
expressions in a CustomScan plan node that the core code doesn't know
about, insist that all subexpressions that need planner attention be in
a "custom_exprs" list in the Plan representation. (Of course, the
custom plugin can break the list apart again at executor initialization.)
This lets us revert the parts of the patch that exposed setrefs.c and
subselect.c processing to the outside world.
Also revert the GetSpecialCustomVar stuff in ruleutils.c; that concept
may work in future, but it's far from fully baked right now.
Instead of register_custom_path_provider and a CreateCustomScanPath
callback, let's just provide a standard function hook in set_rel_pathlist.
This is more flexible than what was previously committed, is more like the
usual conventions for planner hooks, and requires less support code in the
core. We had discussed this design (including centralizing the
set_cheapest() calls) back in March or so, so I'm not sure why it wasn't
done like this already.
This error counted the first line of a cell as "extra". The effect was
to cause far too frequent invocation of the pager. In most cases this
can be worked around (for example, by using the "less" pager with the -F
flag), so don't backpatch.
These commands were calling the database direct rather than calling
PSQLexec like other slash commands that needed database data.
The code is also changed not to pass the connection as a parameter to
the helper functions. It's available in a global variable, and that's
what PSQLexec uses.
There seems no prospect that any of this will ever be useful, and indeed
it's questionable whether some of it would work if it ever got called;
it's certainly not been exercised in a very long time, if ever. So let's
get rid of it, and make the comments about mark/restore in execAmi.c less
wishy-washy.
The mark/restore support for Result nodes is also currently dead code,
but that's due to planner limitations not because it's impossible that
it could be useful. So I left it in.
Get rid of the pernicious entanglement between planner and executor headers
introduced by commit 0b03e5951b.
Also, rearrange the CustomFoo struct/typedef definitions so that all the
typedef names are seen as used by the compiler. Without this pgindent
will mess things up a bit, which is not so important perhaps, but it also
removes a bizarre discrepancy between the declaration arrangement used for
CustomExecMethods and that used for CustomScanMethods and
CustomPathMethods.
Clean up the commentary around ExecSupportsMarkRestore to reflect the
rather large change in its API.
Const-ify register_custom_path_provider's argument. This necessitates
casting away const in the function, but that seems better than forcing
callers of the function to do so (or else not const-ify their method
pointer structs, which was sort of the whole point).
De-export fix_expr_common. I don't like the exporting of fix_scan_expr
or replace_nestloop_params either, but this one surely has got little
excuse.
execCurrent.c's search_plan_tree() must recognize a CustomScan on the
target relation. This would only be helpful for custom providers that
support CurrentOfExpr quals, which is probably a bit far-fetched, but
it's not impossible I think. But even without assuming that, we need
to recognize a scanned-relation match so that we will properly throw
error if the desired relation is being scanned with both a CustomScan
and a regular scan (ie, self-join).
Also recognize ForeignScanState for similar reasons. Supporting WHERE
CURRENT OF on a foreign table is probably even more far-fetched than
it is for custom scans, but I think in principle you could do it with
postgres_fdw (or another FDW that supports the ctid column). This
would be a back-patchable bug fix if existing FDWs handled CurrentOfExpr,
but I doubt any do so I won't bother back-patching.
Now that we have a policy of hiding varlena catalog fields behind
"#ifdef CATALOG_VARLEN", there is no need for their type names to be
acceptable to the C compiler. And experimentation shows that it does
not matter to pgindent either. (If it did, we'd have problems anyway,
since these typedefs are unreferenced so far as the C compiler is
concerned, and find_typedef fails to identify such typedefs.)
Hence, remove the phony typedefs that genbki.h provided to make
some varlena field definitions compilable.
In passing, rearrange #define's into what seemed a more logical order.
It's a false positive - the variable is only used when 'onleft' is true,
and it is initialized in that case. But the compiler doesn't necessarily
see that.
Each WAL record now carries information about the modified relation and
block(s) in a standardized format. That makes it easier to write tools that
need that information, like pg_rewind, prefetching the blocks to speed up
recovery, etc.
There's a whole new API for building WAL records, replacing the XLogRecData
chains used previously. The new API consists of XLogRegister* functions,
which are called for each buffer and chunk of data that is added to the
record. The new API also gives more control over when a full-page image is
written, by passing flags to the XLogRegisterBuffer function.
This also simplifies the XLogReadBufferForRedo() calls. The function can dig
the relation and block number from the WAL record, so they no longer need to
be passed as arguments.
For the convenience of redo routines, XLogReader now disects each WAL record
after reading it, copying the main data part and the per-block data into
MAXALIGNed buffers. The data chunks are not aligned within the WAL record,
but the redo routines can assume that the pointers returned by XLogRecGet*
functions are. Redo routines are now passed the XLogReaderState, which
contains the record in the already-disected format, instead of the plain
XLogRecord.
The new record format also makes the fixed size XLogRecord header smaller,
by removing the xl_len field. The length of the "main data" portion is now
stored at the end of the WAL record, and there's a separate header after
XLogRecord for it. The alignment padding at the end of XLogRecord is also
removed. This compansates for the fact that the new format would otherwise
be more bulky than the old format.

When pg_receivexlog --slot is connecting to the server, at the shutdown
of the server, walsender keeps waiting for the last WAL record to be
replicated and flushed in pg_receivexlog. But previously pg_receivexlog
issued sync command only when WAL file was switched. So there was
the case where the last WAL was never flushed and walsender had to
keep waiting infinitely. This caused the server shutdown to get stuck.
pg_recvlogical handles this problem by calling fsync() when it receives
the request of immediate reply from the server. That is, at shutdown,
walsender sends the request, pg_recvlogical receives it, flushes the last
WAL record, and sends the flush location back to the server. Since
walsender can see that the last WAL record is successfully flushed, it can
exit cleanly.
This commit introduces the same logic as pg_recvlogical has,
to pg_receivexlog.

The regression test cases added in commits b2cbced9e et al depended in part
on the Russian timezone offset changes of Oct 2014. While this is of no
particular concern for a default Postgres build, it was possible for a
build using --with-system-tzdata to fail the tests if the system tzdata
database wasn't au courant. Bjorn Munch and Christoph Berg both complained
about this while packaging 9.4rc1, so we probably shouldn't insist on the
system tzdata being up-to-date. Instead, make an equivalent test using a
zone change that occurred in Venezuela in 2007. With this patch, the
regression tests should pass using any tzdata set from 2012 or later.

on a machine whose system tzdata is more than three years out-of-date.)

Allows pg_dump to use a snapshot previously defined by a concurrent
session that has either used pg_export_snapshot() or obtained a
snapshot when creating a logical slot. When this option is used with
parallel pg_dump, the snapshot defined by this option is used and no
new snapshot is taken.

Previously pg_receivexlog flushed WAL data only when WAL file was switched.
Then 3dad73e added -F option to pg_receivexlog so that users could control
how frequently sync commands were issued to WAL files. It also allowed users
to make pg_receivexlog flush WAL data immediately after writing by
specifying 0 in -F option. However feedback messages were not sent back
immediately even after a flush location was updated. So even if WAL data
was flushed in real time, the server could not see that for a while.
This commit removes -F option from and adds --synchronous to pg_receivexlog.
If --synchronous is specified, like the standby's wal receiver, pg_receivexlog
flushes WAL data as soon as there is WAL data which has not been flushed yet.
Then it sends back the feedback message identifying the latest flush location
to the server. This option is useful to make pg_receivexlog behave as sync
standby by using replication slot, for example.

Buildfarm members with CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS advised us that commit
85b506bbfc was mistaken in setting the relpersistence value of the
index directly in the relcache entry, within reindex_index. The reason
for the failure is that an invalidation message that comes after mucking
with the relcache entry directly, but before writing it to the catalogs,
would cause the entry to become rebuilt in place from catalogs with the
old contents, losing the update.
Fix by passing the correct persistence value to
RelationSetNewRelfilenode instead; this routine also writes the updated
tuple to pg_class, avoiding the problem. Suggested by Tom Lane.
When checking a table that has an inheritance tree marked,
if no child tables remain, we skip ANALYZE. This patch emits
a message to show that the action has been skipped.

This removes ATChangeIndexesPersistence() introduced by f41872d0c1
which was too ugly to live for long. Instead, the correct persistence
marking is passed all the way down to reindex_index, so that the
transient relation built to contain the index relfilenode can
get marked correctly right from the start.

630cd14426 added initdb --sync-only, for use by pg_upgrade, by just
exposing the existing fsync code. That's wrong, because initdb so far
had absolutely no reason to deal with tablespaces.
Fix --sync-only by additionally explicitly syncing each of the
tablespaces.
Backpatch to 9.3 where --sync-only was introduced.

Unlogged relations are only reset when performing a unclean
restart. That means they have to be synced to disk during clean
shutdowns. During normal processing that's achieved by registering a
buffer's file to be fsynced at the next checkpoint when flushed. But
ResetUnloggedRelations() doesn't go through the buffer manager, so
nothing will force reset relations to disk before the next shutdown
checkpoint.
So just make ResetUnloggedRelations() fsync the newly created main
forks to disk.

Backpatch to 9.1 where unlogged tables were introduced.

Unlogged relations are reset at the end of crash recovery as they're
only synced to disk during a proper shutdown. Unfortunately that and
later steps can fail, e.g. due to running out of space. This reset
was, up to now performed after marking the database as having finished
crash recovery successfully. As out of space errors trigger a crash
restart that could lead to the situation that not all unlogged
relations are reset.
Once that happend usage of unlogged relations could yield errors like
"could not open file "...": No such file or directory". Luckily
clusters that show the problem can be fixed by performing a immediate
shutdown, and starting the database again.
To fix, just call ResetUnloggedRelations(UNLOGGED_RELATION_INIT)
earlier, before marking the database as having successfully recovered.

The initial patch for RLS mistakenly included headers associated with
the executor and planner bits in rewrite/rowsecurity.h. Per policy and
general good sense, executor headers should not be included in planner
headers or vice versa.
The include of execnodes.h was a mistaken holdover from previous
versions, while the include of relation.h was used for Relation's
definition, which should have been coming from utils/relcache.h. This
patch cleans these issues up, adds comments to the RowSecurityPolicy
struct and the RowSecurityConfigType enum, and changes Relation->rsdesc
to Relation->rd_rsdesc to follow Relation field naming convention.
Additionally, utils/rel.h was including rewrite/rowsecurity.h, which
wasn't a great idea since that was pulling in things not really needed
in utils/rel.h (which gets included in quite a few places). Instead,
use 'struct RowSecurityDesc' for the rd_rsdesc field and add comments
explaining why.
Lastly, add an include into access/nbtree/nbtsort.c for
utils/sortsupport.h, which was evidently missed due to the above mess.
Pointed out by Tom in 16970.1415838651@sss.pgh.pa.us; note that the
concerns regarding a similar situation in the custom-path commit still
need to be addressed.
Per complaint from Tom.
While at it, throw in some extra tests for nulls as well, and make sure
that the set of data we insert on the second round is not identical to
the first one. Both measures are intended to improve coverage of the
test.
Also uncomment the ON COMMIT DROP clause on the CREATE TEMP TABLE
commands. This doesn't have any effect for someone examining the
regression database after the tests are done, but it reduces clutter for
those that execute the script directly.
This function has a loop which can lead to uninterruptible process
"stalls" (actually infinite loops) when some bugs are triggered. Avoid
that unpleasant situation by adding a check for interrupts in a place
that shouldn't degrade performance in the normal case.
Backpatch to 9.3. Older branches have an identical loop here, but the
aforementioned bugs are only a problem starting in 9.3 so there doesn't
seem to be any point in backpatching any further.
In some workloads BufferGetBlockNumber() shows up in profiles due to
the sheer number of calls to it (and because it causes cache
misses). The compiler can't move it out of the loop because it's a
full extern function call...
pg_atomic_init_u64 (indirectly) uses compare/exchange to guarantee
atomic writes on platforms where compare/exchange is available, but
64bit writes aren't atomic (yes, those exist). That leads to a
harmless read of the initial value of variable.
Fix breakage induced by commits d8d3d2a4f3
and 463f2625a5fb183b6a8925ccde98bb3889f921d9: pg_dumpall has crashed when
attempting to dump from pre-8.1 servers since then, due to faulty
construction of the query used for dumping roles from older servers.
The query was erroneous as of the earlier commit, but it wasn't exposed
unless you tried to use --binary-upgrade, which you presumably wouldn't
with a pre-8.1 server. However commit 463f2625a made it fail always.
In HEAD, also fix additional breakage induced in the same query by
commit 491c029dbc, which evidently wasn't
tested against pre-8.1 servers either.
The bug is only latent in 9.1 because 463f2625a hadn't landed yet, but
it seems best to back-patch all branches containing the faulty query.

There are basically three situations in which logical decoding needs
to perform cache invalidation. During/After replaying a transaction
with catalog changes, when skipping a uninteresting transaction that
performed catalog changes and when erroring out while replaying a
transaction. Unfortunately these three cases were all done slightly
differently - partially because 8de3e410fa, which greatly simplifies
matters, got committed in the midst of the development of logical
decoding.
The actually problematic case was when logical decoding skipped
transaction commits (and thus processed invalidations). When used via
the SQL interface cache invalidation could access the catalog - bad,
because we didn't set up enough state to allow that correctly. It'd
not be hard to setup sufficient state, but the simpler solution is to
always perform cache invalidation outside a valid transaction.
Also make the different cache invalidation cases look as similar as
possible, to ease code review.
This fixes the assertion failure reported by Antonin Houska in
53EE02D9.7040702@gmail.com. The presented testcase has been expanded
into a regression test.
Backpatch to 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced.
When building the initial historic catalog snapshot there were
scenarios where snapbuild.c would use incorrect xmin/xmax values when
starting from a xl_running_xacts record. The values used were always a
bit suspect, but happened to be correct in the easy to test
cases. Notably the values used when the the initial snapshot was
computed while no other transactions were running were correct.
This is likely to be the cause of the occasional buildfarm failures on
animals markhor and tick; but it's quite possible to reproduce
problems without CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS.
Backpatch to 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced.
There was a window in RestoreBackupBlock where a page would be zeroed out,
but not yet locked. If a backend pinned and locked the page in that window,
it saw the zeroed page instead of the old page or new page contents, which
could lead to missing rows in a result set, or errors.
To fix, replace RBM_ZERO with RBM_ZERO_AND_LOCK, which atomically pins,
zeroes, and locks the page, if it's not in the buffer cache already.
In stable branches, the old RBM_ZERO constant is renamed to RBM_DO_NOT_USE,
to avoid breaking any 3rd party extensions that might use RBM_ZERO. More
importantly, this avoids renumbering the other enum values, which would
cause even bigger confusion in extensions that use ReadBufferExtended, but
haven't been recompiled.
Backpatch to all supported versions; this has been racy since hot standby
was introduced.
The hope is that we can use this to produce better diagnostics in
some cases.
