Tom Lane e8312b4f03 Don't let timeout interrupts happen unless ImmediateInterruptOK is set.
Serious oversight in commit 16e1b7a1b7f7ffd8a18713e83c8cd72c9ce48e07:
we should not allow an interrupt to take control away from mainline code
except when ImmediateInterruptOK is set.  Just to be safe, let's adopt
the same save-clear-restore dance that's been used for many years in
HandleCatchupInterrupt and HandleNotifyInterrupt, so that nothing bad
happens if a timeout handler invokes code that tests or even manipulates
ImmediateInterruptOK.

Per report of "stuck spinlock" failures from Christophe Pettus, though
many other symptoms are possible.  Diagnosis by Andres Freund.

Heikki Linnakangas 50e547096c Add GUC to enable WAL-logging of hint bits, even with checksums disabled.
WAL records of hint bit updates is useful to tools that want to examine
which pages have been modified. In particular, this is required to make
the pg_rewind tool safe (without checksums).

This can also be used to test how much extra WAL-logging would occur if
you enabled checksums, without actually enabling them (which you can't
currently do without re-initdb'ing).

Heikki Linnakangas a49633d8dc Fix WAL-logging of setting the visibility map bit.
The operation that removes the remaining dead tuples from the page must
be WAL-logged before the setting of the VM bit. Otherwise, if you replay
the WAL to between those two records, you end up with the VM bit set, but
the dead tuples are still there.

Backpatch to 9.3, where this bug was introduced.

Tom Lane b5e0a2a384 Tweak placement of explicit ANALYZE commands in the regression tests.
Make the COPY test, which loads most of the large static tables used in
the tests, also explicitly ANALYZE those tables.  This allows us to get
rid of various ad-hoc, and rather redundant, ANALYZE commands that had
gotten stuck into various test scripts over time to ensure we got
consistent plan choices.  (We could have done a database-wide ANALYZE,
but that would cause stats to get attached to the small static tables
too, which results in plan changes compared to the historical behavior.
I'm not sure that's a good idea, so not going that far for now.)

Back-patch to 9.0, since 9.0 and 9.1 are currently sometimes failing
regression tests for lack of an "ANALYZE tenk1" in the subselect test.

Robert Haas 66abc2608c Add a new reloption, user_catalog_table.
When this reloption is set and wal_level=logical is configured,
we'll record the CIDs stamped by inserts, updates, and deletes to
the table just as we would for an actual catalog table.  This will
allow logical decoding to use historical MVCC snapshots to access
such tables just as they access ordinary catalog tables.

Replication solutions built around the logical decoding machinery
will likely need to set this operation for their configuration
tables; it might also be needed by extensions which perform table
access in their output functions.

Robert Haas e55704d8b2 Add new wal_level, logical, sufficient for logical decoding.
When wal_level=logical, we'll log columns from the old tuple as
configured by the REPLICA IDENTITY facility added in commit
07cacba983.  This makes it possible
a properly-configured logical replication solution to correctly
follow table updates even if they change the chosen key columns,
or, with REPLICA IDENTITY FULL, even if the table has no key at
all.  Note that updates which do not modify the replica identity
column won't log anything extra, making the choice of a good key
(i.e. one that will rarely be changed) important to performance
when wal_level=logical is configured.

Each insert, update, or delete to a catalog table will also log
the CMIN and/or CMAX values of stamped by the current transaction.
This is necessary because logical decoding will require access to
historical snapshots of the catalog in order to decode some data
types, and the CMIN/CMAX values that we may need in order to judge
row visibility may have been overwritten by the time we need them.

Tom Lane 9ec6199d18 Fix possible crash with nested SubLinks.
An expression such as WHERE (... x IN (SELECT ...) ...) IN (SELECT ...)
could produce an invalid plan that results in a crash at execution time,
if the planner attempts to flatten the outer IN into a semi-join.
This happens because convert_testexpr() was not expecting any nested
SubLinks and would wrongly replace any PARAM_SUBLINK Params belonging
to the inner SubLink.  (I think the comment denying that this case could
happen was wrong when written; it's certainly been wrong for quite a long
time, since very early versions of the semijoin flattening logic.)

Peter Eisentraut 3164721462 SSL: Support ECDH key exchange
This sets up ECDH key exchange, when compiling against OpenSSL that
supports EC.  Then the ECDHE-RSA and ECDHE-ECDSA cipher suites can be
used for SSL connections.  The latter one means that EC keys are now
usable.

The reason for EC key exchange is that it's faster than DHE and it
allows to go to higher security levels where RSA will be horribly slow.

There is also new GUC option ssl_ecdh_curve that specifies the curve
name used for ECDH.  It defaults to "prime256v1", which is the most
common curve in use in HTTPS.

Peter Eisentraut ef3267523d SSL: Add configuration option to prefer server cipher order
By default, OpenSSL (and SSL/TLS in general) lets the client cipher
order take priority.  This is OK for browsers where the ciphers were
tuned, but few PostgreSQL client libraries make the cipher order
configurable.  So it makes sense to have the cipher order in
postgresql.conf take priority over client defaults.

This patch adds the setting "ssl_prefer_server_ciphers" that can be
turned on so that server cipher order is preferred.  Per discussion,
this now defaults to on.

Alvaro Herrera 312bde3d40 Fix improper abort during update chain locking
In 247c76a989, I added some code to do fine-grained checking of
MultiXact status of locking/updating transactions when traversing an
update chain.  There was a thinko in that patch which would have the
traversing abort, that is return HeapTupleUpdated, when the other
transaction is a committed lock-only.  In this case we should ignore it
and return success instead.  Of course, in the case where there is a
committed update, HeapTupleUpdated is the correct return value.

A user-visible symptom of this bug is that in REPEATABLE READ and
SERIALIZABLE transaction isolation modes spurious serializability errors
can occur:
  ERROR:  could not serialize access due to concurrent update

In order for this to happen, there needs to be a tuple that's key-share-
locked and also updated, and the update must abort; a subsequent
transaction trying to acquire a new lock on that tuple would abort with
the above error.  The reason is that the initial FOR KEY SHARE is seen
as committed by the new locking transaction, which triggers this bug.
(If the UPDATE commits, then the serialization error is correctly
reported.)

When running a query in READ COMMITTED mode, what happens is that the
locking is aborted by the HeapTupleUpdated return value, then
EvalPlanQual fetches the newest version of the tuple, which is then the
only version that gets locked.  (The second time the tuple is checked
there is no misbehavior on the committed lock-only, because it's not
checked by the code that traverses update chains; so no bug.) Only the
newest version of the tuple is locked, not older ones, but this is
harmless.

The isolation test added by this commit illustrates the desired
behavior, including the proper serialization errors that get thrown.

Backpatch to 9.3.

Tom Lane 74242c23c1 Clear retry flags properly in replacement OpenSSL sock_write function.
Current OpenSSL code includes a BIO_clear_retry_flags() step in the
sock_write() function.  Either we failed to copy the code correctly, or
they added this since we copied it.  In any case, lack of the clear step
appears to be the cause of the server lockup after connection loss reported
in bug #8647 from Valentine Gogichashvili.  Assume that this is correct
coding for all OpenSSL versions, and hence back-patch to all supported
branches.

Alvaro Herrera 07aeb1fec5 Avoid resetting Xmax when it's a multi with an aborted update
HeapTupleSatisfiesUpdate can very easily "forget" tuple locks while
checking the contents of a multixact and finding it contains an aborted
update, by setting the HEAP_XMAX_INVALID bit.  This would lead to
concurrent transactions not noticing any previous locks held by
transactions that might still be running, and thus being able to acquire
subsequent locks they wouldn't be normally able to acquire.

This bug was introduced in commit 1ce150b7bb; backpatch this fix to 9.3,
like that commit.

This change reverts the change to the delete-abort-savept isolation test
in 1ce150b7bb, because that behavior change was caused by this bug.

Insertion to a non-leaf GIN page didn't make a full-page image of the page,

853d1c3103) because the redo-routine didn't
track incomplete splits correctly when the page was restored from a full
page image. Of course, that was not right way to fix it, the redo routine
should've been fixed instead. The redo-routine was surreptitiously fixed
in 2010 (commit 4016bdef8a), so all we need
to do now is revert the code that creates the record to its original form.

This doesn't change the format of the WAL record.
