Backward and forward scans share much of the same page acquisition code.
Here we consolidate that code to reduce some duplication.
Additionally, add a new rs_coffset field to HeapScanDescData to track the
offset of the current tuple. The new field fits nicely into the padding
between a bool and BlockNumber field and saves having to look at the last
returned tuple to figure out which offset we should be looking at for the
current tuple.

In the 90s we needed to deal with computers that still had the
pre-standard signal masking APIs. That hasn't been relevant for a very
long time on Unix systems, and c94ae9d8 got rid of a remaining
dependency in our Windows porting code. PG_SETMASK didn't expose
save/restore functionality, so we'd already started using sigprocmask()
directly in places, creating the visual distraction of having two ways
to spell it. It's not part of the API that extensions are expected to
be using (but if they are, the change will be trivial). It seems like a
good time to drop the old macro and just call the standard POSIX
function.

Extend the existing developer option 'logical_replication_mode' to help
test the parallel apply of large transactions on the subscriber.
When set to 'buffered', the leader sends changes to parallel apply workers
via a shared memory queue. When set to 'immediate', the leader serializes
all changes to files and notifies the parallel apply workers to read and
apply them at the end of the transaction.
This helps in adding tests to cover the serialization code path in
parallel streaming mode.

never be reached as standard_ExecutorRun() never calls ExecutePlan with
NoMovementScanDirection.
Additionally, plans which were scanning an unordered index would use
NoMovementScanDirection rather than ForwardScanDirection. There was no
real need for this, so here we adjust this so we use ForwardScanDirection
for unordered index scans. A comment in pathnodes.h claimed that
NoMovementScanDirection was used for PathKey reasons, but if that was
true, it no longer is, per code in build_index_paths().
This does change the non-text format of the EXPLAIN output so that

"NoMovement". The text format of EXPLAIN has not changed.

In commit 2489d76c4, I'd thought it'd be safe to assert that a
PlaceHolderVar appearing in a scan-level expression has empty
nullingrels. However this is not so, as when we determine that a
join relation is certainly empty we'll put its targetlist into a
Result-with-constant-false-qual node, and nothing is done to adjust
the nullingrels of the Vars or PHVs therein. (Arguably, a Result
used in this way isn't really a scan-level node, but it certainly
isn't an upper node either ...)
It's not clear this is worth any close analysis, so let's just
take out the faulty Assert.

This commit changes the query jumbling code in queryjumblefuncs.c to be
generated automatically based on the information of the nodes in the
headers of src/include/nodes/ by using gen_node_support.pl. This
approach offers many advantages:
- Support for query jumbling for all the utility statements, based on the
state of their parsed Nodes and not only their query string. This will
greatly ease the switch to normalize the information of some DDLs, like
SET or CALL for example (this is left unchanged and should be part of a
separate discussion). With this feature, the number of entries stored
for utilities in pg_stat_statements is reduced (for example now
"CHECKPOINT" and "checkpoint" mean the same thing with the same query
ID).
- Documentation of query jumbling directly in the structure definition
of the nodes. Since this code has been introduced in pg_stat_statements
and then moved to code, the reasons behind the choices of what should be
included in the jumble are rather sparse. Note that some explanation is
added for the most relevant parts, as a start.
- Overall code reduction and more consistency with the other parts
generating read, write and copy depending on the nodes.
The query jumbling is controlled by a couple of new node attributes,
documented in nodes/nodes.h:
- custom_query_jumble, to mark a Node as having a custom
implementation.
- no_query_jumble, to ignore entirely a Node.
- query_jumble_ignore, to ignore a field in a Node.
- query_jumble_location, to mark a location in a Node, for
normalization. This can apply only to int fields, with "location" in
their name (only Const as of this commit).
There should be no compatibility impact on pg_stat_statements, as the
new code applies the jumbling to the same fields for each node (its
regression tests have no modification, for one).
Some benchmark of the query jumbling between HEAD and this commit for
SELECT and DMLs has proved that this new code does not cause a
performance regression, with computation times close for both methods.
For utility queries, the new method is slower than the previous method
of calculating a hash of the query string, though we are talking about
extra ns-level changes based on what I measured, which is unnoticeable
even for OLTP workloads as a query ID is calculated once per query
post-parse analysis.

This test has been added as of 857ee8e that has introduced the SQL
function txid_status(), with the purpose of checking that a transaction
ID still in-progress during a crash is correctly marked as aborted after
recovery finishes.
This test is unstable, and some configuration scenarios may that easier
to reproduce (wal_level=minimal, wal_compression=on) because the WAL
holding the information about the in-progress transaction ID may not
have made it to disk yet, hence a post-crash recovery may cause the same
XID to be reused, triggering a test failure.
We have discussed a few approaches, like making this function force a
WAL flush to make it reliable across crashes, but we don't want to pay a
performance penalty in some scenarios, as well. The test could have
been tweaked to enforce a checkpoint but that actually breaks the
promise of the test to rely on a stable result of txid_status() after
a crash.

Backpatch-through: 11
Switch to get_dirent_type() instead of lstat() while traversing a
directory tree, to see if that fixes the intermittent ENOTEMPTY failures
seen in recent pg_upgrade tests, on Windows CI. While refactoring, also
use AllocateDir() instead of opendir() in the backend, which knows how
to handle descriptor pressure.
Our CI system currently uses Windows Server 2019, a version known not to
have POSIX unlink semantics enabled by default yet, unlike typical
Windows 10 and 11 systems. That might explain why we see this flapping
on CI but (apparently) not in the build farm, though the frequency is
quite low.
The theory is that some directory entry must be in state
STATUS_DELETE_PENDING, which lstat() would report as ENOENT, though
unfortunately we don't know exactly why yet. With this change, rmtree()
will not skip them, and try to unlink (again). Our unlink() wrapper
should either wait a short time for them to go away when some other
process closes the handle, or log a message to tell us the path of the
problem file if not, so we can dig further.

EquivalenceClasses are now understood as applying within a "join
domain", which is a set of inner-joined relations (possibly underneath
an outer join). We no longer need to treat an EC from below an outer
join as a second-class citizen.
I have hopes of eventually being able to treat outer-join clauses via
EquivalenceClasses, by means of only applying deductions within the
EC's join domain. There are still problems in the way of that, though,
so for now the reconsider_outer_join_clause logic is still here.
I haven't been able to get rid of RestrictInfo.is_pushed_down either,
but I wonder if that could be recast using JoinDomains.
I had to hack one test case in postgres_fdw.sql to make it still test
what it was meant to, because postgres_fdw is inconsistent about
how it deals with quals containing non-shippable expressions; see
https://postgr.es/m/1691374.1671659838@sss.pgh.pa.us. That should
be improved, but I don't think it's within the scope of this patch
series.

Remove RestrictInfo.nullable_relids, along with a good deal of
infrastructure that calculated it. One use-case for it was in
join_clause_is_movable_to, but we can now replace that usage with
a check to see if the clause's relids include any outer join
that can null the target relation. The other use-case was in
join_clause_is_movable_into, but that test can just be dropped
entirely now that the clause's relids include outer joins.
Furthermore, join_clause_is_movable_into should now be
accurate enough that it will accept anything returned by
generate_join_implied_equalities, so we can restore the Assert
that was diked out in commit 95f4e59c3.
Remove the outerjoin_delayed mechanism. We needed this before to
prevent quals from getting evaluated below outer joins that should
null some of their vars. Now that we consider varnullingrels while
placing quals, that's taken care of automatically, so throw the
whole thing away.
Teach remove_useless_result_rtes to also remove useless FromExprs.
Having done that, the delay_upper_joins flag serves no purpose any
more and we can remove it, largely reverting 11086f2f2.
Use constant TRUE for "dummy" clauses when throwing back outer joins.
This improves on a hack I introduced in commit 6a6522529. If we
have a left-join clause l.x = r.y, and a WHERE clause l.x = constant,
we generate r.y = constant and then don't really have a need for the
join clause. But we must throw the join clause back anyway after
marking it redundant, so that the join search heuristics won't think
this is a clauseless join and avoid it. That was a kluge introduced
under time pressure, and after looking at it I thought of a better
way: let's just introduce constant-TRUE "join clauses" instead,
and get rid of them at the end. This improves the generated plans for
such cases by not having to test a redundant join clause. We can also
get rid of the ugly hack used to mark such clauses as redundant for
selectivity estimation.

Traditionally we used the same Var struct to represent the value
of a table column everywhere in parse and plan trees. This choice
predates our support for SQL outer joins, and it's really a pretty
bad idea with outer joins, because the Var's value can depend on
where it is in the tree: it might go to NULL above an outer join.
So expression nodes that are equal() per equalfuncs.c might not
represent the same value, which is a huge correctness hazard for
the planner.
To improve this, decorate Var nodes with a bitmapset showing
which outer joins (identified by RTE indexes) may have nulled
them at the point in the parse tree where the Var appears.
This allows us to trust that equal() Vars represent the same value.
A certain amount of klugery is still needed to cope with cases
where we re-order two outer joins, but it's possible to make it
work without sacrificing that core principle. PlaceHolderVars
receive similar decoration for the same reason.
In the planner, we include these outer join bitmapsets into the relids
that an expression is considered to depend on, and in consequence also
add outer-join relids to the relids of join RelOptInfos. This allows
us to correctly perceive whether an expression can be calculated above
or below a particular outer join.
This change affects FDWs that want to plan foreign joins. They *must*
follow suit when labeling foreign joins in order to match with the
core planner, but for many purposes (if postgres_fdw is any guide)
they'd prefer to consider only base relations within the join.
To support both requirements, redefine ForeignScan.fs_relids as
base+OJ relids, and add a new field fs_base_relids that's set up by
the core planner.
Large though it is, this commit just does the minimum necessary to
install the new mechanisms and get check-world passing again.
Follow-up patches will perform some cleanup. (The README additions
and comments mention some stuff that will appear in the follow-up.)

This fixes a bug that, under some circumstances, would cause MERGE to
fail to properly recompute expressions for GENERATED STORED columns.
Formerly, ExecInitModifyTable() did not call ExecInitStoredGenerated()
for a MERGE command, which meant that the generated expressions
information was not computed until later, when the first merge action
was executed. However, if the first merge action to execute was an
UPDATE, then ExecInitStoredGenerated() could decide to skip some some
generated columns, if the columns on which they depended were not
updated, which was a problem if the MERGE also contained an INSERT
action, for which no generated columns should be skipped.
So fix by having ExecInitModifyTable() call ExecInitStoredGenerated()
for MERGE, and assume that it isn't safe to skip any generated columns
in a MERGE. Possibly that could be relaxed, by allowing some generated
columns to be skipped for a MERGE without an INSERT action, but it's
not clear that it's worth the effort.
Noticed while investigating bug #17759. Back-patch to v15, where MERGE
was added.

Rename the developer option 'logical_decoding_mode' to the more flexible
name 'logical_replication_mode' because doing so will make it easier to
extend this option in the future to help test other areas of logical
replication.
Currently, it is used on the publisher side to allow streaming or
serializing each change in logical decoding. In the upcoming patch, we are
planning to use it on the subscriber. On the subscriber, it will allow
serializing the changes to file and notifies the parallel apply workers to
read and apply them at the end of the transaction.
We discussed exposing this parameter as a subscription option but
it did not seem advisable since it is primarily used for testing/debugging
and there is no other such parameter. We also discussed having separate
GUCs for publisher and subscriber but for current testing/debugging
requirements, one GUC is sufficient.

pg_restore -l has always been able to read the TOC data of a dump even
if its binary has no support for compression, for both compressed and
uncompressed dumps. 5e73a60 has introduced a backward-incompatible
behavior by switching a warning to a hard error in the code path reading
the header data of a dump, preventing the TOC items to be listed even if
pg_restore -l, with no support for compression, is used on a compressed
dump. Most modern systems should have support for zlib, but it can be
also possible that somebody relies on the past behavior when copying
over a dump where binaries are not built with zlib support (most likely
some WIN32 flavors these days, though most environments should provide
that).
There is no easy way to have a regression test for this pattern, as it
requires a mix of dump/restore commands with different compilation
options, with and without compression. One possibility I see here would
be to have a command-line option that enforces a non-compression check
for a build that supports compression, but that does not seem worth the
cost, either.

We'd like to use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds with the stop_time
possibly being TIMESTAMP_INFINITY, but up to now it's disclaimed

the range [0, INT_MAX], handling overflow correctly. (INT_MAX rather
than LONG_MAX seems appropriate, because the function is already
described as being intended for calculating wait times for WaitLatch

Also, this choice gets rid of cross-platform behavioral differences.)
Having done that, we can replace some ad-hoc code in walreceiver.c

While at it, fix some buglets in existing callers of

Avoid having walreceiver code know explicitly about the precision
and underlying datatype of TimestampTz. (There is still one
calculation that knows that, which should be replaced with use of
TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds; but we need to figure out what to do
about overflow cases first.)
In support of this, provide a TimestampTzPlusSeconds macro, as well
as TIMESTAMP_INFINITY and TIMESTAMP_MINUS_INFINITY macros. (We could
have used the existing DT_NOEND and DT_NOBEGIN symbols, but I judged
those too opaque and confusing.)
Move GetCurrentTimestamp calls so that it's more obvious that we
are not using stale values of "now" anyplace. This doesn't result

When auto_explain.log_verbose is on, auto_explain should print in the
logs plans equivalent to the EXPLAIN (VERBOSE). However, when
compute_query_id is on, query identifiers were not showing up, being
only handled by EXPLAIN (VERBOSE). This brings auto_explain on par with
EXPLAIN regarding that. Note that like EXPLAIN, auto_explain does not
show the query identifier when compute_query_id=regress.
The change is done so as the choice of printing the query identifier is
done in ExplainPrintPlan() rather than in ExplainOnePlan(), to avoid a
duplication of the logic dealing with the query ID. auto_explain is the
only in-core caller of ExplainPrintPlan().
While looking at the area, I have noticed that more consolidation

Eager freezing strategy avoids large build-ups of all-visible pages. It
makes VACUUM trigger page-level freezing whenever doing so will enable
the page to become all-frozen in the visibility map. This is useful for
tables that experience continual growth, particularly strict append-only
tables such as pgbench's history table. Eager freezing significantly
improves performance stability by spreading out the cost of freezing
over time, rather than doing most freezing during aggressive VACUUMs.
It complements the insert autovacuum mechanism added by commit b07642db.
VACUUM determines its freezing strategy based on the value of the new
vacuum_freeze_strategy_threshold GUC (or reloption) with logged tables.
Tables that exceed the size threshold use the eager freezing strategy.
Unlogged tables and temp tables always use eager freezing strategy,
since the added cost is negligible there. Non-permanent relations won't
incur any extra overhead in WAL written (for the obvious reason), nor in
pages dirtied (since any extra freezing will only take place on pages
whose PD_ALL_VISIBLE bit needed to be set either way).
VACUUM uses lazy freezing strategy for logged tables that fall under the
GUC size threshold. Page-level freezing triggers based on the criteria
established in commit 1de58df4, which added basic page-level freezing.
Eager freezing is strictly more aggressive than lazy freezing. Settings
like vacuum_freeze_min_age still get applied in just the same way in
every VACUUM, independent of the strategy in use. The only mechanical
difference between eager and lazy freezing strategies is that only the
former applies its own additional criteria to trigger freezing pages.
Note that even lazy freezing strategy will trigger freezing whenever a
page happens to have required that an FPI be written during pruning,
provided that the page will thereby become all-frozen in the visibility
map afterwards (due to the FPI optimization from commit 1de58df4).
The vacuum_freeze_strategy_threshold default setting is 4GB. This is a
relatively low setting that prioritizes performance stability. It will
be reviewed at the end of the Postgres 16 beta period.

We undefined them to avoid warnings about macro redefinitions. But we haven't
fully followed the necessary include order, since at least 147c248254, in
2011. Recently the combination of the include order rules not being followed
and undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE started to cause a compile failure, starting
with 03023a2664. Undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE hides clock_gettime(), which is
referenced in an inline function as of 03023a2664, whereas it was a macro
before.
After seeing some evidence that undefining _POSIX_C_SOURCE et al isn't
required, I tried to build postgres with plpython on most of our supported
platforms (except DragonFlyBSD and Illumos, but similar systems were tested),
with/without the #undefines. No compiler warning / behavioral difference.
The oldest supported python version, 3.2, defines _POSIX_C_SOURCE to 200112L
ad _XOPEN_SOURCE to 600, whereas newer versions of python use 200809L/700
respectively. As _POSIX_C_SOURCE/_XOPEN_SOURCE will default to the newer
operating system on most platforms, it's possible that when using python 3.2
new warnings would be emitted - but that seems acceptable.
It's possible that this approach won't work on some older platforms. But
getting rid of most of the include-order complexity seems promising, and it's
an easily revertible patch if we end up having to go another way.

we needn't embed knowledge of their representations into calling code.
These are all zeroes anyway ATM, so this is not fixing any live bug,
but it makes the code cleaner and more future-proof.
I (tgl) also chose to move DSM_HANDLE_INVALID into dsm_impl.h,
since it seems like it should live beside the typedef for dsm_handle.

Modify the new event loop code from commit 7389aad6 so that it checks
for work requested by signal handlers even if it doesn't see a latch
event yet.
This gives priority to shutdown and reload requests where the latch will
be reported later in the event array, or in a later call to
WaitEventSetWait(), due to scheduling details. In particular, this
guarantees that a SIGHUP-then-connect sequence (as seen in
authentication tests) causes the postmaster to process the reload before
accepting the connection. If the WaitEventSetWait() call saw the socket
as ready, and the reload signal was generated before the connection,
then the latest time the signal handler should be able to run is after
poll/epoll_wait/kevent returns but before we check the
pending_pm_reload_request flag.
While here, also shift the handling of child exit below reload requests,
per Tom Lane's observation that that might start new processes, so we
should make sure we pick up new settings first.
This probably explains the one-off failure of build farm animal
malleefowl.

This makes two small changes that will improve pgindent's usefulness in
a git hook. First, it looks for the exclude file relative to the current
directory. And second, it applies the filters to filenames given on the
command line as well as those found in a directory sweep.
It might prove necessary to make further efforts to find the exclude
file, and even to allow multiple exclude files, but for now this should
be enough for most purposes.

Previously, a CREATEROLE user without SUPERUSER could not alter
REPLICATION users in any way, and could not set the BYPASSRLS
attribute. However, they could manipulate the CREATEDB property
even if they themselves did not possess it.
With this change, a CREATEROLE user without SUPERUSER can set or
clear the REPLICATION, BYPASSRLS, or CREATEDB property on a new
role or a role that they have rights to manage if and only if
that property is set for their own role.
This implements the standard idea that you can't give permissions
you don't have (but you can give the ones you do have). We might
in the future want to provide more powerful ways to constrain
what a CREATEROLE user can do - for example, to limit whether
CONNECTION LIMIT can be set or the values to which it can be set -
but that is left as future work.

The drop database command waits for the logical replication sync worker to
accept ProcSignalBarrier and the worker's slot creation waits for the drop
database to finish which leads to a deadlock. This happens because the
tablesync worker holds interrupts while creating a slot.
We prevent cancel/die interrupts while creating a slot in the table sync
worker because it is possible that before the server finishes this
command, a concurrent drop subscription happens which would complete
without removing this slot and that leads to the slot existing until the
end of walsender. However, the slot will eventually get dropped at the
walsender exit time, so there is no danger of the dangling slot.
This patch reallows cancel/die interrupts while creating a slot and
modifies the test to wait for slots to become zero to prevent finding an
ephemeral slot.
The reported hang doesn't happen in PG14 as the drop database starts to
wait for ProcSignalBarrier with PG15 (commits 4eb2176318 and e2f65f4255)
but it is good to backpatch this till PG14 as it is not a good idea to
prevent interrupts during a network call that could block indefinitely.

In contrast to the changes to dblink and postgres_fdw, this does not fix a
bug, as libpqwalreceiver did already process interrupts.
Besides reducing code duplication, the conversion leads to libpqwalreceiver
now using reserving file descriptors for libpq connections. While not strictly
required for the use in walreceiver, we are also using libpqwalreceiver for
logical replication, where it does seem more important.
Even if we eventually decide to backpatch the prior commits, there'd be no
need to backpatch this commit, due to not fixing an active bug.

Currently dblink and postgres_fdw don't process interrupts during connection
establishment. Besides preventing query cancellations etc, this can lead to
undetected deadlocks, as global barriers are not processed.
Libpqwalreceiver in contrast, processes interrupts during connection
establishment. The required code is not trivial, so duplicating it into
additional places does not seem like a good option.
These aforementioned undetected deadlocks are the reason for the spate of CI
test failures in the FreeBSD 'test_running' step.
For now the helper library is just a header, as it needs to be linked into
each extension using libpq, and it seems too small to be worth adding a
dedicated static library for.
The conversion to the helper are done in subsequent commits.

When libpqrcv_connect (also known as walrcv_connect()) failed, it leaked the
libpq connection. In most paths that's fairly harmless, as the calling process
will exit soon after. But e.g. CREATE SUBSCRIPTION could lead to a somewhat
longer lived leak.
Fix by releasing resources, including the libpq connection, on error.
Add a test exercising the error code path. To make it reliable and safe, the
test tries to connect to port=-1, which happens to fail during connection
establishment, rather than during connection string parsing.

Backpatch: 11-
b762fed64 recently changed this test to prevent subquery pullup to allow
us to test Memoize with lateral_vars. As pointed out by Tom Lane, OFFSET
0 is our standard way of preventing subquery pullups, so do it that way
instead.

Backpatch-through: 14, same as b762fed64
The test in question was meant to be testing Memoize to ensure it worked
correctly when the inner side of the join contained lateral vars, however,
nothing in the lateral subquery stopped it from being pulled up into the
main query, so the planner did that, and that meant no more lateral vars.
Here we add a simple ORDER BY to stop the planner from being able to
pullup the lateral subquery.

Backpatch-through: 14, where Memoize was added.
7fcbf6a and 2ff6555 changed the function signature of XLogPageRead()
but did not update the comment.
XLogReaderRoutine contains up to date information about the API, so no
need to repeat all that at XLogPageRead(), but fix the mentions of the
no longer existing function arguments.
This enhances the numeric type input function, adding support for
hexadecimal, octal, and binary integers of any size, up to the limits
of the numeric type.
Since 6fcda9aba8, such non-decimal integers have been accepted by the
parser as integer literals and passed through to numeric_in(). This
commit gives numeric_in() the ability to handle them.
While at it, simplify the handling of NaN and infinities, reducing the
number of calls to pg_strncasecmp(), and arrange for pg_strncasecmp()
to not be called at all for regular numbers. This gives a significant
performance improvement for decimal inputs, more than offsetting the
small performance hit of checking for non-decimal input.
