GCC 12 complains that set_stack_base is storing the address of
a local variable in a long-lived pointer. This is an entirely
reasonable warning (indeed, it just helped us find a bug);
but that behavior is intentional here. We can work around it
by using __builtin_frame_address(0) instead of a specific local
variable; that produces an address a dozen or so bytes different,
in my testing, but we don't care about such a small difference.
Maybe someday a compiler lacking that function will start to issue
a similar warning, but we'll worry about that when it happens.
Patch by me, per a suggestion from Andres Freund. Back-patch to
v12, which is as far back as the patch will go without some pain.
(Recently-established project policy would permit a back-patch as
far as 9.2, but I'm disinclined to expend the work until GCC 12
is much more widespread.)

This patch just rejects Python 2 during configure / mkvcbuild.pl. Future

Add a heuristic that avoids distortion in the pg_class.reltuples
estimates used by VACUUM. Without the heuristic, successive manually
run VACUUM commands (run against a table that is never modified after
initial bulk loading) will scan the same page in each VACUUM operation.
Eventually pg_class.reltuples may reach the point where one single heap
page is accidentally considered highly representative of the entire
table. This is likely to be completely wrong, since the last heap page
typically has fewer tuples than average for the table.
It's not obvious that this was a problem prior to commit 44fa8488, which
made vacuumlazy.c consistently scan the last heap page (even when it is
all-visible in the visibility map). It seems possible that there were
more subtle variants of the same problem that went unnoticed for quite
some time, though. Commit 44fa8488 simplified certain aspects of when
and how relation truncation was considered, but it did not introduce the
"scan the last page" behavior. Essentially the same behavior was
introduced much earlier, in commit e8429082. It was conditioned on
whether or not truncation looked promising towards the end of the
initial heap pass by VACUUM until recently, which was at least somewhat
protective. That doesn't seem like something that we should be relying
on, though.

FinishWalRecovery() copied the valid part of the last WAL block into a

buffer. But the memcpy in StartupXLOG() copied a full 8kB block, not
just the valid part, i.e. it copied from beyond the end of the buffer.
The invalid part was cleared immediately afterwards, so as long as the
memory was allocated and didn't segfault, it didn't do any harm, but
it can definitely segfault.

src/backend/utils/misc/check_guc is a script that cross-checks the
consistency of the GUCs with postgresql.conf.sample, making sure that
its format is in line with what guc.c has. It has never been run
automatically, and has rotten over the years, creating a lot of false
positives as per a report from Justin Pryzby.
d10e41d has introduced a SQL function to publish the most relevant flags
associated to a GUC, with tests added in the main regression test suite
to make sure that we avoid most of the inconsistencies in the GUC
settings, based on recent reports, but there was nothing able to
cross-check postgresql.conf.sample with the contents of guc.c.
This commit adds a TAP test that covers the remaining gap. It emulates
the most relevant checks that check_guc did, so as any format mistakes
are detected in postgresql.conf.sample at development stage, with the
following checks:
- Check that parameters marked as NOT_IN_SAMPLE are not in the sample
file.
- Check that there are no dead entries in postgresql.conf.sample for
parameters not marked as NOT_IN_SAMPLE.
- Check that no parameters are missing from the sample file if listed in
guc.c without NOT_IN_SAMPLE.
The idea of building a list of the GUCs by parsing the sample file comes
from Justin, and he wrote the regex used in the patch to find all the
GUCs (this same formatting rule basically applies for the last 20~ years
or so). In order to test this patch, I have played with manual
modifications of postgresql.conf.sample and guc.c, making sure that we
detect problems with the GUC rules and the sample file format.
The test is located in src/test/modules/test_misc, which is the best
location I could think about for such sanity checks, rather than the
main regression test suite (src/test/regress) to avoid a new type of
dependency with the source tree.
The first attempt of this patch was b0a55f4, where the location of
postgresql.conf.sample was retrieved using pg_config --sharedir. This
has proven to be an issue for distributions that patch pg_config to
enforce the installation paths at some wanted location (like Debian),
that may not exist when the test is run, hence causing a failure.
Instead of that, as per a suggestion from Andres Freund, rely on the
fact that the test is always executed from its directory in the source
tree and use a relative path to find the sample file. This works for
the CI, VPATH builds and on Windows, and tests like the recovery one
added in f47ed79 rely on that already.

The 028_pitr_timelines.pl test would sometimes hang, waiting for a WAL
segment that was just filled up to be archived. It was because the
test used 'pg_stat_archiver.last_archived_wal' to check if a file was
archived, but the order that WAL files are archived when a standby is
promoted is not fully deterministic, and 'last_archived_wal' tracks
the last segment that was archived, not the highest-numbered WAL
segment. Because of that, if the archiver archived segment 3, and then
2, 'last_archived_wal' say 2, and the test query would think that 3
has not been archived yet.
Normally, WAL files are marked ready for archival in order, and the
archiver process will process them in order, so that issue doesn't
arise. We have used the same query on 'last_archived_wal' in a few
other tests with no problem. But when a standby is promoted, things
are a bit chaotic. After promotion, the server will try to archive all
the WAL segments from the old timeline that are in pg_wal, as well as
the history file and any new WAL segments on the new timeline. The
end-of-recovery checkpoint will create the .ready files for all the
WAL files on the old timeline, but at the same time, the new timeline
is opened up for business. A file from the new timeline can therefore
be archived before the files from the old timeline have been marked as
ready for archival.
It turns out that we don't really need to wait for the archival in
this particular test, because the standby server is about to be
stopped, and stopping a server will wait for the end-of-recovery
checkpoint and all WAL archivals to finish, anyway. So we can just
remove it from the test.
Add a note to the docs on 'pg_stat_archiver' view that files can be
archived out of order.

block is that for some probably ancient reason many of the older

SELECT p1.oid, p1.oprname, p2.oid, p2.proname
FROM pg_operator AS p1, pg_proc AS p2 <-- HERE
WHERE p1.oprcode = p2.oid AND
p1.oprkind = 'l' AND

OR NOT binary_coercible(p2.prorettype, p1.oprresult)
OR NOT binary_coercible(p1.oprright, p2.proargtypes[0])

This is better written as
SELECT o1.oid, o1.oprname, p1.oid, p1.proname
