Now that BackendId was just another index into the proc array, it was
redundant with the 0-based proc numbers used in other places. Replace
all usage of backend IDs with proc numbers.
The only place where the term "backend id" remains is in a few pgstat
functions that expose backend IDs at the SQL level. Those IDs are now
in fact 0-based ProcNumbers too, but the documentation still calls
them "backend ids". That term still seems appropriate to describe what
the numbers are, so I let it be.
One user-visible effect is that pg_temp_0 is now a valid temp schema
name, for backend with ProcNumber 0.

This allows the target relation of MERGE to be an auto-updatable or
trigger-updatable view, and includes support for WITH CHECK OPTION,
security barrier views, and security invoker views.
A trigger-updatable view must have INSTEAD OF triggers for every type
of action (INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE) mentioned in the MERGE command.
An auto-updatable view must not have any INSTEAD OF triggers. Mixing
auto-update and trigger-update actions (i.e., having a partial set of
INSTEAD OF triggers) is not supported.
Rule-updatable views are also not supported, since there is no

More precisely, what we do here is make the SLRU cache sizes
configurable with new GUCs, so that sites with high concurrency and big
ranges of transactions in flight (resp. multixacts/subtransactions) can
benefit from bigger caches. In order for this to work with good
performance, two additional changes are made:
1. the cache is divided in "banks" (to borrow terminology from CPU
caches), and algorithms such as eviction buffer search only affect
one specific bank. This forestalls the problem that linear searching
for a specific buffer across the whole cache takes too long: we only
have to search the specific bank, whose size is small. This work is
authored by Andrey Borodin.
2. Change the locking regime for the SLRU banks, so that each bank uses
a separate LWLock. This allows for increased scalability. This work
is authored by Dilip Kumar. (A part of this was previously committed as
d172b717c6f4.)
Special care is taken so that the algorithms that can potentially
traverse more than one bank release one bank's lock before acquiring the
next. This should happen rarely, but particularly clog.c's group commit
feature needed code adjustment to cope with this. I (Álvaro) also added
lots of comments to make sure the design is sound.
The new GUCs match the names introduced by bcdfa5f2e2 in the
pg_stat_slru view.
The default values for these parameters are similar to the previous
sizes of each SLRU. commit_ts, clog and subtrans accept value 0, which
means to adjust by dividing shared_buffers by 512 (so 2MB for every 1GB
of shared_buffers), with a cap of 8MB. (A new slru.c function
SimpleLruAutotuneBuffers() was added to support this.) The cap was
previously 1MB for clog, so for sites with more than 512MB of shared
memory the total memory used increases, which is likely a good tradeoff.
However, other SLRUs (notably multixact ones) retain smaller sizes and
don't support a configured value of 0. These values based on
shared_buffers may need to be revisited, but that's an easy change.
There was some resistance to adding these new GUCs: it would be better
to adjust to memory pressure automatically somehow, for example by
stealing memory from shared_buffers (where the caches can grow and
shrink naturally). However, doing that seems to be a much larger
project and one which has made virtually no progress in several years,
and because this is such a pain point for so many users, here we take
the pragmatic approach.

assertion:
TRAP: failed Assert("(uintptr_t) buffer == TYPEALIGN(PG_IO_ALIGN_SIZE, buffer)"), File: "md.c", Line: 472, PID: 2949728

By enabling slot synchronization, all the failover logical replication
slots on the primary (assuming configurations are appropriate) are
automatically created on the physical standbys and are synced
periodically. The slot sync worker on the standby server pings the primary
server at regular intervals to get the necessary failover logical slots
information and create/update the slots locally. The slots that no longer
require synchronization are automatically dropped by the worker.
The nap time of the worker is tuned according to the activity on the
primary. The slot sync worker waits for some time before the next
synchronization, with the duration varying based on whether any slots were
updated during the last cycle.
A new parameter sync_replication_slots enables or disables this new
process.
On promotion, the slot sync worker is shut down by the startup process to
drop any temporary slots acquired by the slot sync worker and to prevent
the worker from trying to fetch the failover slots.
A functionality to allow logical walsenders to wait for the physical will
be done in a subsequent commit.

A child table can specify a compression or storage method different
from its parents. This was previously an error. (But this was
inconsistently enforced because for example the settings could be
changed later using ALTER TABLE.) This now also allows an explicit
override if multiple parents have different compression or storage
settings, which was previously an error that could not be overridden.
The compression and storage properties remains unchanged in a child
inheriting from parent(s) after its creation, i.e., when using ALTER
TABLE ... INHERIT. (This is not changed.)
Before this change, the error detail would mention the first pair of
conflicting parent compression or storage methods. But with this
change it waits till the child specification is considered by which
time we may have encountered many such conflicting pairs. Hence the
error detail after this change does not include the conflicting
compression/storage methods. Those can be obtained from parent
definitions if necessary. The code to maintain list of all
conflicting methods or even the first conflicting pair does not seem
worth the convenience it offers. This change is inline with what we
do with conflicting default values.
Before this commit, the specified storage method could be stored in
ColumnDef::storage (CREATE TABLE ... LIKE) or ColumnDef::storage_name
(CREATE TABLE ...). This caused the MergeChildAttribute() and
MergeInheritedAttribute() to ignore a storage method specified in the
child definition since it looked only at ColumnDef::storage. This
commit removes ColumnDef::storage and instead uses
ColumnDef::storage_name to save any storage method specification. This
is similar to how compression method specification is handled.

This commit introduces a new SQL function pg_sync_replication_slots()
which is used to synchronize the logical replication slots from the
primary server to the physical standby so that logical replication can be
resumed after a failover or planned switchover.
A new 'synced' flag is introduced in pg_replication_slots view, indicating
whether the slot has been synchronized from the primary server. On a
standby, synced slots cannot be dropped or consumed, and any attempt to
perform logical decoding on them will result in an error.
The logical replication slots on the primary can be synchronized to the
hot standby by using the 'failover' parameter of
pg-create-logical-replication-slot(), or by using the 'failover' option of
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION during slot creation, and then calling
pg_sync_replication_slots() on standby. For the synchronization to work,
it is mandatory to have a physical replication slot between the primary
and the standby aka 'primary_slot_name' should be configured on the
standby, and 'hot_standby_feedback' must be enabled on the standby. It is
also necessary to specify a valid 'dbname' in the 'primary_conninfo'.
If a logical slot is invalidated on the primary, then that slot on the
standby is also invalidated.
If a logical slot on the primary is valid but is invalidated on the
standby, then that slot is dropped but will be recreated on the standby in
the next pg_sync_replication_slots() call provided the slot still exists
on the primary server. It is okay to recreate such slots as long as these
are not consumable on standby (which is the case currently). This
situation may occur due to the following reasons:
- The 'max_slot_wal_keep_size' on the standby is insufficient to retain
WAL records from the restart_lsn of the slot.
- 'primary_slot_name' is temporarily reset to null and the physical slot
is removed.
The slot synchronization status on the standby can be monitored using the
'synced' column of pg_replication_slots view.
A functionality to automatically synchronize slots by a background worker
and allow logical walsenders to wait for the physical will be done in
subsequent commits.

Commit b0f0a9432d backpatched some code from upstream DocBook XSL to
our customization layer. It turned out that this failed to work with
anything but the latest DocBook XSL upstream version (1.79.*), because
the backpatched code references an XSLT parameter (autolink.index.see)
that is not defined in earlier versions (because the feature it is
used for did not exist yet).
There is no way in XSLT to test whether a parameter is declared before
the stylesheet processor tries and fails to access it. So the
possibilities to fix this would be to either remove the code that uses
the parameter (and thus give up on the feature it is used for) or
declare the parameter in our customization layer. The latter seems
easier, and with a few more lines of code we can backport the entire
autolink.index.see feature, so let's do that. (If we didn't, then
with older stylesheets the parameter will appear as on, but it won't
actually do anything, because of the way the stylesheets are laid out,
so it's less confusing to just make it work.)
With this, the documentation build should work again with docbook-xsl
versions 1.77.*, 1.78.*, and 1.79.* (which already worked before).
Version 1.76.1 already didn't work before all this, so was not

Formerly, these were only supported in to_char(), but there seems
little reason for that restriction. We should at least have enough
support to permit round-tripping the output of to_char().
In that spirit, TZ accepts either zone abbreviations or numeric
(HH or HH:MM) offsets, which are the cases that to_char() can output.
In an ideal world we'd make it take full zone names too, but
that seems like it'd introduce an unreasonable amount of ambiguity,
since the rules for POSIX-spec zone names are so lax.
OF is a subset of this, accepting only HH or HH:MM.
One small benefit of this improvement is that we can simplify
jsonpath's executeDateTimeMethod function, which no longer needs
to consider the HH and HH:MM cases separately. Moreover, letting
it accept zone abbreviations means it will accept "Z" to mean UTC,
which is emitted by JSON.stringify() for example.

or a numeric value to the numeric type representation. If precision
and scale are provided for .decimal(), then it is converted to the
equivalent numeric typmod and applied to the numeric number.
.integer() and .number() convert the given JSON string or a
numeric value to the int4 and numeric type representation.
.string() uses the datatype's output function to convert numeric
and various date/time types to the string representation.
The JSON string representing a valid date/time is converted to the
specific date or time type representation using jsonpath .date(),
.time(), .time_tz(), .timestamp(), .timestamp_tz() methods. The
changes use the infrastructure of the .datetime() method and perform
the datatype conversion as appropriate. Unlike the .datetime()
method, none of these methods accept a format template and use ISO
DateTime format instead. However, except for .date(), the
date/time related methods take an optional precision to adjust the
fractional seconds.

This commit adds the failover property to the replication slot. The
failover property indicates whether the slot will be synced to the standby
servers, enabling the resumption of corresponding logical replication
after failover. But note that this commit does not yet include the
capability to sync the replication slot; the subsequent commits will add
that capability.
A new optional parameter 'failover' is added to the
pg_create_logical_replication_slot() function. We will also enable to set
'failover' option for slots via the subscription commands in the
subsequent commits.
The value of the 'failover' flag is displayed as part of
pg_replication_slots view.
