There was a logic error in a formula, reported by Atsushi Torokoshi.
Ashutosh Bapat furthermore recommended to change notation for a variable
that was re-using a letter from a previous formula, though his proposed
patch contained a small error in attributing what the new letter is for.
Also, instead of his proposed d' I ended up using e, to avoid confusing
the reader with quotes which are used differently in the explaining
prose.
Bugs appeared in commit 2686ee1b7c.

The autovacuum launcher doesn't actually do anything with its DSA other
than creating it and attaching to it, but it's been observed that after
longjmp'ing to the standard error handling block (for example after
getting SIGINT) the autovacuum enters an infinite loop reporting that it
cannot attach to its DSA anymore (which is correct, because it's already
attached to it.) Fix by only attempting to attach if not already
attached.
I introduced this bug together with BRIN autosummarization in
7526e10224.

When promoting a standby just after a XLOG_SWITCH record was replayed,
and next segment(s) are already are locally available (via walsender,
restore_command + trigger/recovery target), that segment could
accidentally be recycled onto the past of the new timeline. Later
checkpointer would create a .ready file for it, assuming there was an
error during creation, and it would get archived. That causes trouble
if another standby is later brought up from a basebackup from before
the timeline creation, because it would try to read the
segment, because XLogFileReadAnyTLI just tries all possible timelines,
which doesn't have valid contents. Thus replay would fail.
The problem, if already occurred, can be fixed by removing the segment
and/or having restore_command filter it out.
The reason for the creation of such "phantom" segments was, that after
an XLOG_SWITCH record the EndOfLog variable points to the beginning of
the next segment, and RemoveXlogFile() used XLByteToPrevSeg().
Normally RemoveXlogFile() doing so is harmless, because the last
segment will still exist preventing InstallXLogFileSegment() from
causing harm, but just after promotion there's no previous segment on
the new timeline.
Fix that by using XLByteToSeg() instead of XLByteToPrevSeg().

Backpatch: 9.2-, bug older than all supported versions
Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.
Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.
Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent

The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:
* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
than the expected column 33.
On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.
There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

Update version-checking code and list of switches. Delete obsolete
quasi-support for using GNU indent. Remove a lot of no-longer-needed
workarounds for bugs of the old version, and improve comments for
the hacks that remain. Update run_build() subroutine to fetch the
pg_bsd_indent code from the newly established git repo for it.
In passing, fix pgindent to not overwrite files that require no changes;
this makes it a bit more friendly to run on a built tree.
Adjust relevant documentation.
Remove indent.bsd.patch; it's not relevant anymore (and was obsolete
long ago anyway). Likewise remove pgcppindent, since we're no longer
in the business of shipping C++ code.

to the pgindent script; I did the rest.

Currently, there are no built-in functions that are SECURITY DEFINER.
But we just found an instance where one was mistakenly marked that way,
so it seems prudent to add a test about it. If we ever grow some
functions that are intentionally SECURITY DEFINER, we can alter the
expected output of this test, or adjust the query to filter out functions
for which it's okay.
Per suggestion from Robert Haas.

When commit 0f33a719fd removed the
instructions to start/stop the new cluster before running rsync, it was
now possible for pg_resetwal/pg_resetxlog to leave the final WAL record
at wal_level=minimum, preventing upgraded standby servers from
reconnecting.
This patch fixes that by having pg_upgrade unconditionally start/stop
the new cluster after pg_resetwal/pg_resetxlog has run.

load_libraries(), which processes the various xxx_preload_libraries GUCs,
was parsing them using SplitIdentifierString() which isn't really
appropriate for values that could be path names: it downcases unquoted
text, and it doesn't allow embedded whitespace unless quoted.
Use SplitDirectoriesString() instead. That also allows us to simplify
load_libraries() a bit, since canonicalize_path() is now done for it.
While this definitely seems like a bug fix, it has the potential to
break configuration settings that accidentally worked before because
of the downcasing behavior. Also, there's an easy workaround for the
bug, namely to double-quote troublesome text. Hence, no back-patch.

Viewing a table with \d in psql also shows the publications at table is
in. If a publication is concurrently dropped, this shows an error,
because the view pg_publication_tables internally uses
pg_get_publication_tables(), which uses a catalog snapshot. This can be
particularly annoying if a for-all-tables publication is concurrently
dropped.
To avoid that, write the query in psql differently. Expose the function
pg_relation_is_publishable() to SQL and write the query using that.
That still has a risk of being affected by concurrent catalog changes,
but in this case it would be a table drop that causes problems, and then
the psql \d command wouldn't be interesting anymore anyway.

David Rowley found that the "use the smallest per-column selectivity"
heuristic applied in some cases by get_foreign_key_join_selectivity()
was badly off if the FK columns are independent, producing estimates
much worse than we got before that code was added in 9.6.
One case where that heuristic was used was for LEFT and FULL outer joins
with the referenced rel on the outside of the join. But we should not
really need to special-case those here. eqjoinsel() never has had such a
special case; the correction is applied by calc_joinrel_size_estimate()
instead. Let's just estimate such cases like inner joins and rely on that
later adjustment. (I think there was something of a thinko here, in that
the comments seem to be thinking about the selectivity as defined for
semi/anti joins; but that shouldn't apply to left/full joins.) Add a
regression test exercising such a case to show that this is sane in
at least some cases.
The other case where we used that heuristic was for SEMI/ANTI outer joins,
either if the referenced rel was on the outside, or if it was on the inside
but was part of a join within the RHS. In either case, the FK doesn't give
us a lot of traction towards estimating the selectivity. To ensure that
we don't have regressions from what happened before 9.6, let's punt by
ignoring the FK in such cases and applying the traditional selectivity
calculation. (We might be able to improve on that later, but for now
I just want to be sure it's not worse than 9.5.)
Report and patch by David Rowley, simplified a bit by me. Back-patch
to 9.6 where this code was added.

When, during logical decoding, a transaction gets too big, it's
contents get spilled to disk. Not just the top-transaction gets
spilled, but *also* all of its subtransactions, even if they're not
that large themselves. Unfortunately we didn't clean up
such small spilled subtransactions from disk.
Fix that, by keeping better track of whether a transaction has been
spilled to disk.

This should normally be determined by a configure check, but until
someone figures out how to do that on Windows, it's better that the code
uses the new function by default.
If a .c or .h file corresponds to a .y or .l file, skip indenting it.
There's no point in reindenting derived files, and these files tend to
confuse pgindent. (Which probably indicates a bug in BSD indent, but
I can't get excited about trying to fix it.)
For the same reasons, add src/backend/utils/fmgrtab.c to the set of
files excluded by src/tools/pgindent/exclude_file_patterns.
The point of doing this is that it makes it safe to run pgindent over
the tree without doing "make maintainer-clean" first. While these are
not the only derived .c/.h files in the tree, they are the only ones
pgindent fails on. Removing that prerequisite step results in one less
way to mess up a pgindent run, and it's necessary if we ever hope to get
to the ease of running pgindent via "make indent".
Windows uses a separate code path for libc locales. The code previously
ended up there also if an ICU collation should be used, leading to a
crash.

When a new base type is created using the old-style procedure of first
creating the input/output functions with "opaque" in place of the base
type, the "opaque" argument/return type is changed to the final base type,
on CREATE TYPE. However, we did not create a pg_depend record when doing
that, so the functions were left not depending on the type.

The _equalTableFunc() omission of coltypmods has semantic significance,
but I did not track down resulting user-visible bugs, if any. The other
changes are cosmetic only, affecting order. catversion bump due to
readfuncs.c field order change.
We had three occurrences of essentially the same coding pattern
wherein we tried to retrieve a query result from a libpq connection
without blocking. In the case where PQconsumeInput failed (typically
indicating a lost connection), all three loops simply gave up and
returned, forgetting to clear any previously-collected PGresult
object. Since those are malloc'd not palloc'd, the oversight results
in a process-lifespan memory leak.
One instance, in libpqwalreceiver, is of little significance because
the walreceiver process would just quit anyway if its connection fails.
But we might as well fix it.
The other two instances, in postgres_fdw, are somewhat more worrisome
because at least in principle the scenario could be repeated, allowing
the amount of memory leaked to build up to something worth worrying
about. Moreover, in these cases the loops contain CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS
calls, as well as other calls that could potentially elog(ERROR),
providing another way to exit without having cleared the PGresult.
Here we need to add PG_TRY logic similar to what exists in quite a
few other places in postgres_fdw.
Coverity noted the libpqwalreceiver bug; I found the other two cases
by checking all calls of PQconsumeInput.
Back-patch to all supported versions as appropriate (9.2 lacks
postgres_fdw, so this is really quite unexciting for that branch).

Previously we required every exported transaction to have an xid
assigned. That was used to check that the exporting transaction is
still running, which in turn is needed to guarantee that that
necessary rows haven't been removed in between exporting and importing
the snapshot.
The exported xid caused unnecessary problems with logical decoding,
because slot creation has to wait for all concurrent xid to finish,
which in turn serializes concurrent slot creation. It also
prohibited snapshots to be exported on hot-standby replicas.
Instead export the virtual transactionid, which avoids the unnecessary
serialization and the inability to export snapshots on standbys. This
changes the file name of the exported snapshot, but since we never
documented what that one means, that seems ok.

In a CHECK clause, a null result means true, whereas in a WHERE clause
it means false. predtest.c provided different functions depending on
which set of semantics applied to the predicate being proved, but had
no option to control what a null meant in the clauses provided as
axioms. Add one.
Use that in the partitioning code when figuring out whether the
validation scan on a new partition can be skipped. Rip out the
old logic that attempted (not very successfully) to compensate
for the absence of the necessary support in predtest.c.
