Currently, there is just one algorithm for sampling tuples from a table written
in acquire_sample_rows(). Custom table AM can just redefine the way to get the
next block/tuple by implementing scan_analyze_next_block() and
scan_analyze_next_tuple() API functions.
This approach doesn't seem general enough. For instance, it's unclear how to
sample this way index-organized tables. This commit allows table AM to
encapsulate the whole sampling algorithm (currently implemented in
acquire_sample_rows()) into the relation_analyze() API function.

This SQL-callable function behaves much like our internal utility
function getBaseType(), except it returns NULL rather than failing for
an invalid type OID. (That behavior is modeled on our experience with
other catalog-inquiry functions such as the ACL checking functions.)
The key advantage over doing a join to pg_type is that it will loop
as needed to find the bottom base type of a nest of domains.

This allows MERGE commands to include WHEN NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE
actions, which operate on rows that exist in the target relation, but
not in the data source. These actions can execute UPDATE, DELETE, or
DO NOTHING sub-commands.
This is in contrast to already-supported WHEN NOT MATCHED actions,
which operate on rows that exist in the data source, but not in the
target relation. To make this distinction clearer, such actions may
now be written as WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET.
Writing WHEN NOT MATCHED without specifying BY SOURCE or BY TARGET is

Previously, the behavior of TidStoreCreate() was inconsistent between
local and shared TidStore instances in terms of memory limitation. For
local TidStore, a memory context was created with initial and maximum
memory block sizes, as well as a minimum memory context size, based on
the specified max_bytes values. However, for shared TidStore, the
provided DSA area was used for TID storage. Although commit bb952c8c8b
allowed specifying the initial and maximum DSA segment sizes, callers
would have needed to clamp their own limits, which was not consistent
and user-friendly.
With this commit, when creating a shared TidStore, a dedicated DSA
area is created for TID storage instead of using a provided DSA
area. The initial and maximum DSA segment sizes are chosen based on
the specified max_bytes. Other processes can attach to the shared
TidStore using the handle of the created DSA returned by the new
TidStoreGetDSA() function and the DSA pointer returned by
TidStoreGetHandle(). The created DSA has the same lifetime as the
shared TidStore and is deleted when all processes detach from it.
To improve clarity, the TidStoreCreate() function has been divided
into two separate functions: TidStoreCreateLocal() and
TidStoreCreateShared().

random(min integer, max integer) returns integer
random(min bigint, max bigint) returns bigint
random(min numeric, max numeric) returns numeric
Each returns a random number x in the range min <= x <= max.
For the numeric function, the number of digits after the decimal point

This commit improves the performance of pg_lfind32() in many cases
by modifying it to process the remaining "tail" of elements with
SIMD instructions instead of processing them one-by-one. Since the
SIMD code processes a large block of elements, this means that we
will process a subset of elements more than once, but that won't
affect the correctness of the result, and testing has shown that
this helps more cases than it regresses. With this change, the

If we know the sort order of a CTE's output, and it is relevant
to the outer query, label the CTE's outer-query access path using
those pathkeys. This may enable optimizations such as avoiding
a sort in the outer query.
The code for hoisting pathkeys into the outer query already exists
for regular RTE_SUBQUERY subqueries, but it wasn't getting used for
CTEs, possibly out of concern for maintaining an optimization fence
between the CTE and the outer query. However, on the same arguments
used for commit f7816aec2, there seems no harm in letting the outer
query know what the inner query decided to do.
In support of this, we now remember the best Path as well as Plan
for each subquery for the rest of the planner run. There may be
future applications for having that at hand, and it surely costs
little to build one more List.

ObjectClass is an enum whose values correspond to catalog OIDs. But
the extra layer of redirection, which is used only in small parts of
the code, and the similarity to ObjectType, are confusing and
cumbersome.
One advantage has been that some switches processing the OCLASS enum
don't have "default:" cases. This is so that the compiler tells us
when we fail to add support for some new object class. But you can
also handle that with some assertions and proper test coverage. It's
not even clear how strong this benefit is. For example, in
AlterObjectNamespace_oid(), you could still put a new OCLASS into the
"ignore object types that don't have schema-qualified names" case, and
it might or might not be wrong. Also, there are already various
OCLASS switches that do have a default case, so it's not even clear
what the preferred coding style should be.

Currently, in read committed transaction isolation mode (default), we have the
following sequence of actions when tuple_update()/tuple_delete() finds
the tuple updated by the concurrent transaction.
1. Attempt to update/delete tuple with tuple_update()/tuple_delete(), which
returns TM_Updated.
2. Lock tuple with tuple_lock().
3. Re-evaluate plan qual (recheck if we still need to update/delete and
calculate the new tuple for update).
4. Second attempt to update/delete tuple with tuple_update()/tuple_delete().
This attempt should be successful, since the tuple was previously locked.
This commit eliminates step 2 by taking the lock during the first
tuple_update()/tuple_delete() call. The heap table access method saves some
effort by checking the updated tuple once instead of twice. Future
undo-based table access methods, which will start from the latest row version,
can immediately place a lock there.
Also, this commit makes tuple_update()/tuple_delete() optionally save the old
tuple into the dedicated slot. That saves efforts on re-fetching tuples in
certain cases.
The code in nodeModifyTable.c is simplified by removing the nested switch/case.

This commit adds a new property called last_inactive_time for slots. It is
set to 0 whenever a slot is made active/acquired and set to the current
timestamp whenever the slot is inactive/released or restored from the disk.
Note that we don't set the last_inactive_time for the slots currently being
synced from the primary to the standby because such slots are typically
inactive as decoding is not allowed on those.
The 'last_inactive_time' will be useful on production servers to debug and
analyze inactive replication slots. It will also help to know the lifetime
of a replication slot - one can know how long a streaming standby, logical
subscriber, or replication slot consumer is down.
The 'last_inactive_time' will also be useful to implement inactive

Until now, UNION queries have often been suboptimal as the planner has
only ever considered using an Append node and making the results unique
by either using a Hash Aggregate, or by Sorting the entire Append result
and running it through the Unique operator. Both of these methods
always require reading all rows from the union subqueries.
Here we adjust the union planner so that it can request that each subquery
produce results in target list order so that these can be Merge Appended
together and made unique with a Unique node. This can improve performance
significantly as the union child can make use of the likes of btree
indexes and/or Merge Joins to provide the top-level UNION with presorted
input. This is especially good if the top-level UNION contains a LIMIT
node that limits the output rows to a small subset of the unioned rows as
cheap startup plans can be used.

Up to now, all of the "catcache list" objects within a catalog cache
were just chained together on a single dlist, requiring O(N) time to
search. Remarkably, we've not had serious performance problems with
that so far; but we got a complaint of a bad performance regression
from v15 in a case with a large number of roles in the system, which
traced down to O(N^2) total time when we probed N catcache lists.
Replace that data structure with a hashtable having an enlargeable
number of dlists, in an exactly parallel way to the data structure
we've used for years for the plain CatCTup cache members. The extra
cost of maintaining a hash table seems negligible, since we were
already computing a hash value for list searches.
Normally this'd be HEAD-only material, but in view of the performance
regression it seems advisable to back-patch into v16. In the v16
version of the patch, leave the dead cc_lists field where it is and
add the new fields at the end of struct catcache, to avoid possible

The dbname will be recorded only if specified explicitly in the connection

TIDStore is a data structure designed to efficiently store large sets
of TIDs. For TID storage, it employs a radix tree, where the key is
a block number, and the value is a bitmap representing offset
numbers. The TIDStore can be created on a DSA area and used by
multiple backend processes simultaneously.
There are potential future users such as tidbitmap.c, though it's very
likely the interface will need to evolve as we come to understand the
needs of different kinds of users. For example, we can support
updating the offset bitmap of existing values.
Currently, the TIDStore is not used for anything yet, aside from the
test code. But an upcoming patch will use it.
This includes a unit test module, in src/test/modules/test_tidstore.

In combination with to_regtype, this allows converting a string to
the "canonicalized" form emitted by format_type. That usage requires
parsing the string twice, which is slightly annoying but not really
too expensive. We considered alternatives such as returning a record
type, but that way was notationally uglier than this, and possibly
less flexible.
Like to_regtype(), we'd rather that this return NULL for any bad
input, but the underlying type-parsing logic isn't yet capable of
not throwing syntax errors. Adjust the documentation for both
functions to point that out.
In passing, fix up a couple of nearby entries in the System Catalog
Information Functions table that had not gotten the word about our
since-v13 convention for displaying function usage examples.

The builtin C.UTF-8 locale has similar semantics to the libc locale of
the same name. That is, code point sort order (fast, memcmp-based)
combined with Unicode semantics for character operations such as
pattern matching, regular expressions, and
LOWER()/INITCAP()/UPPER(). The character semantics are based on
Unicode simple case mappings.
The builtin provider's C.UTF-8 offers several important advantages
over libc:
* faster sorting -- benefits from additional optimizations such as
abbreviated keys and varstrfastcmp_c
* faster case conversion, e.g. LOWER(), at least compared with some
libc implementations
* available on all platforms with identical semantics, and the
semantics are stable, testable, and documentable within a given
Postgres major version
Being based on memcmp, the builtin C.UTF-8 locale does not offer
natural language sort order. But it is an improvement for most use
cases that might otherwise use libc's "C.UTF-8" locale, as well as
many use cases that use libc's "C" locale.

When considering nestloop paths for individual partitions within
a partitionwise join, if the inner path is parameterized, it is
parameterized by the topmost parent of the outer rel, not the
corresponding outer rel itself. Therefore, we need to translate the
parameterization so that the inner path is parameterized by the
corresponding outer rel.
Up to now, we did this while generating join paths. However, that's
problematic because we must also translate some expressions that are
shared across all paths for a relation, such as restriction clauses
(kept in the RelOptInfo and/or IndexOptInfo) and TableSampleClauses
(kept in the RangeTblEntry). The existing code fails to translate
these at all, leading to wrong answers, odd failures such as
"variable not found in subplan target list", or executor crashes.
But we can't modify them during path generation, because that would
break things if we end up choosing some non-partitioned-join path.
So this patch postpones reparameterization of the inner path until
createplan.c, where it is safe to modify the referenced RangeTblEntry,
RelOptInfo or IndexOptInfo, because we have made a final choice of which
Path to use. We do still have to check during path generation that
the reparameterization will be possible. So we introduce a new
function path_is_reparameterizable_by_child() to detect that.
The duplication between path_is_reparameterizable_by_child() and
reparameterize_path_by_child() is a bit annoying, but there seems
no other good answer. A small benefit is that we can avoid building
useless reparameterized trees in cases where a non-partitioned join
is ultimately chosen. Also, reparameterize_path_by_child() can now
be allowed to scribble on the input paths, saving a few cycles.
This fix repairs the same problems previously addressed in the
back branches by commits 62f120203 et al.

DDL code uses tuple descriptors to pass around pg_attribute values
during table and index creation. But tuple descriptors don't include
the variable-length/nullable columns of pg_attribute, so they have to
be handled separately. Right now, the attoptions field is handled in
a one-off way with a separate argument passed to
InsertPgAttributeTuples(). The other affected fields of pg_attribute
are right now not needed at relation creation time.
The goal of this patch is to generalize this to allow handling
additional variable-length/nullable columns of pg_attribute in a
similar manner. For that, create a new struct
FormExtraData_pg_attribute, which is to be passed around in parallel
to the tuple descriptor and optionally supplies the additional
columns. Right now, this struct only contains one field for
attoptions, so no functionality is actually changed by this.

This introduces a new function equalRowTypes() that is effectively a
subset of equalTupleDescs() but only compares the number of attributes
and attribute name, type, typmod, and collation. This is enough for
most existing uses of equalTupleDescs(), which are changed to use the
new function. The only remaining callers of equalTupleDescs() are
those that really want to check the full tuple descriptor as such,
without concern about record or row or record type semantics.
The existing function hashTupleDesc() is renamed to hashRowType(),
because it now corresponds more to equalRowTypes().
The purpose of this change is to be clearer about the semantics of the
equality asked for by each caller. (At least one caller had a comment
that questioned whether equalTupleDescs() was too restrictive.) For
example, 4f622503d6 removed attstattarget from the tuple descriptor
structure. It was not fully clear at the time how this should affect
equalTupleDescs(). Now the answer is clear: By their own definitions,
equalRowTypes() does not care, and equalTupleDescs() just compares
whatever is in the tuple descriptor but does not care why it is in
there.

The parallel query infrastructure copies the leader backend's active

bespoken code to pass the snapshot from leader to the worker. That was
redundant, so remove it.
The removed code was analogous to the snapshot serialization in
table_parallelscan_initialize(), but that was the wrong role model. A
parallel bitmap heap scan is more like an independent non-parallel
bitmap heap scan in each parallel worker as far as the table AM is
concerned, because the coordination is done in nodeBitmapHeapscan.c,
and the table AM doesn't need to know anything about it.
This relies on the assumption that es_snapshot ==
GetActiveSnapshot(). That's not a new assumption, things would get

We don't determine the position at which a process waiting for a lock
should insert itself into the wait queue until we reach ProcSleep(),
and we may at that point discover that we must insert ourselves ahead
of everyone who wants a conflicting lock, in which case we obtain the
lock immediately. Up until now, a no-wait lock acquisition would fail
in such cases, erroneously claiming that the lock couldn't be obtained
immediately. Fix that by trying ProcSleep even in the no-wait case.
No back-patch for now, because I'm treating this as an improvement to
the existing no-wait feature. It could instead be argued that it's a
bug fix, on the theory that there should never be any case whatsoever
where no-wait fails to obtain a lock that would have been obtained
immediately without no-wait, but I'm reluctant to interpret the

Currently, pg_visibility computes its xid horizon using the
GetOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). The problem is that this horizon can
sometimes go backward. That can lead to reporting false errors.
In order to fix that, this commit implements a new function
GetStrictOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). This function computes the xid
horizon, which would be guaranteed to be newer or equal to any xid horizon
computed before.
We have to do the following to achieve this.
1. Ignore processes xmin's, because they consider connection to other databases
that were ignored before.
2. Ignore KnownAssignedXids, because they are not database-aware. At the same
time, the primary could compute its horizons database-aware.
3. Ignore walsender xmin, because it could go backward if some replication
connections don't use replication slots.
As a result, we're using only currently running xids to compute the horizon.
Surely these would significantly sacrifice accuracy. But we have to do so to
avoid reporting false errors.

New provider for collations, like "libc" or "icu", but without any
external dependency.
Initially, the only locale supported by the builtin provider is "C",
which is identical to the libc provider's "C" locale. The libc
provider's "C" locale has always been treated as a special case that
uses an internal implementation, without using libc at all -- so the
new builtin provider uses the same implementation.
The builtin provider's locale is independent of the server environment
variables LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE. Using the builtin provider, the
database collation locale can be "C" while LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE are
set to "en_US", which is impossible with the libc provider.
By offering a new builtin provider, it clarifies that the semantics of
a collation using this provider will never depend on libc, and makes
it easier to document the behavior.

There is a very ancient hack in check_sql_fn_retval that allows a
single SELECT targetlist entry of composite type to be taken as
supplying all the output columns of a function returning composite.
(This is grotty and fundamentally ambiguous, but it's really hard
to do nested composite-returning functions without it.)
As far as I know, that doesn't cause any problems in ordinary
functions. It's disastrous for procedures however. All procedures
that have any output parameters are labeled with prorettype RECORD,
and the CALL code expects it will get back a record with one column
per output parameter, regardless of whether any of those parameters
is composite. Doing something else leads to an assertion failure
or core dump.
This is simple enough to fix: we just need to not apply that rule
when considering procedures. However, that requires adding another
argument to check_sql_fn_retval, which at least in principle might be
getting called by external callers. Therefore, in the back branches
convert check_sql_fn_retval into an ABI-preserving wrapper around a
new function check_sql_fn_retval_ext.

MemoryContextStats() still recurses, but it now has a limit to how
deep it recurses. Once the limit is reached, it prints just a summary

This patch provides a way to ensure that physical standbys that are
potential failover candidates have received and flushed changes before
the primary server making them visible to subscribers. Doing so guarantees
that the promoted standby server is not lagging behind the subscribers
when a failover is necessary.
The logical walsender now guarantees that all local changes are sent and
flushed to the standby servers corresponding to the replication slots
specified in 'standby_slot_names' before sending those changes to the
subscriber.
Additionally, the SQL functions pg_logical_slot_get_changes,
pg_logical_slot_peek_changes and pg_replication_slot_advance are modified
to ensure that they process changes for failover slots only after physical
slots specified in 'standby_slot_names' have confirmed WAL receipt for those.

Implements Unicode simple case mapping, in which all code points map
to exactly one other code point unconditionally.
These tables are generated from UnicodeData.txt, which is already
being used by other infrastructure in src/common/unicode. The tables
are checked into the source tree, so they only need to be regenerated
when we update the Unicode version.
In preparation for the builtin collation provider, and possibly useful
for other callers.

The inh field of RangeTblEntry was doubly confusingly documented.
Some parts of the code insisted that it was only valid for
RTE_RELATION entries, other parts said the field was valid for all
entries. Neither was quite correct. More correctly, the field is
valid for RTE_RELATION entries but is also used in the planner for
RTE_SUBQUERY entries. So it makes more sense to group it with other
fields that are primarily for RTE_RELATION but borrowed by
RTE_SUBQUERY. (The exact position was chosen so that it is next to
relkind for better struct packing, and next to relid, since relid and
inh are sort of the input fields and the others are filled in later.)
Also add documentation for the planner's use at the struct definition.

This implements a radix tree data structure based on the design in
"The Adaptive Radix Tree: ARTful Indexing for Main-Memory Databases"
by Viktor Leis, Alfons Kemper, and ThomasNeumann, 2013. The main
technique that makes it adaptive is using several different node types,
each with a different capacity of elements, and a different algorithm
for accessing them. The nodes start small and grow/shrink as needed.
The main advantage over hash tables is efficient sorted iteration and
better memory locality when successive keys are lexicographically
close together. The implementation currently assumes 64-bit integer
keys, and traversing the tree is in general slower than a linear
probing hash table, so this is not a general-purpose associative array.
The paper describes two other techniques not implemented here,
namely "path compression" and "lazy expansion". These can further
reduce memory usage and speed up traversal, but the former would add
significant complexity and the latter requires storing the full key
with the value. We do trivially compress the path when leading bytes
of the key are zeros, however.
For value storage, we use "combined pointer/value slots", as
recommended in the paper. Values of size equal or smaller than the the
platform's pointer type are stored in the array of child pointers in
the last level node, while larger values are each stored in a separate
allocation. This is for now fixed at compile time, but it would be
fairly trivial to allow determining at runtime how variable-length
values are stored.
One innovation in our implementation compared to the ART paper is
decoupling the notion of node "size class" from "kind". The size
classes within a given node kind have the same underlying type, but
a variable capacity for children, so we can introduce additional node
sizes with little additional code.
To enable different use cases to specialize for different value types
and for shared/local memory, we use macro-templatized code generation
in the same manner as simplehash.h and sort_template.h.
Future commits will use this infrastructure for storing TIDs.
Patch by Masahiko Sawada and John Naylor, but a substantial amount of
credit is due to Andres Freund, whose proof-of-concept was a valuable
source of coding idioms and awareness of performance pitfalls, and
who reviewed earlier versions.

This reverts commit eae7be600b, following a discussion with Tom Lane,
due to concerns that this impacts the decisions made by the planner for
the number of workers spawned based on the inlining and const-folding of
index expressions and predicate for cases that would have worked until
this commit.

similar to the tables for Unicode normalization or general category,
and those tables can be updated with the 'update-unicode' build

As coded, the planner logic that calculates the number of parallel
workers to use for a parallel index build uses expressions and
predicates from the relcache, which are flattened for the planner by
eval_const_expressions().
As reported in the bug, an immutable parallel-unsafe function flattened
in the relcache would become a Const, which would be considered as
parallel-safe, even if the predicate or the expressions including the
function are not safe in parallel workers. Depending on the expressions
or predicate used, this could cause the parallel build to fail.
Tests are included that check parallel index builds with parallel-unsafe
predicate and expressions. Two routines are added to lsyscache.h to be
able to retrieve expressions and predicate of an index from its pg_index
data.
