Tom Lane 8821054210 Remove stray references to lefttree/righttree in the executor.
The general convention in the executor is to refer to child plans
and planstates via the outerPlan[State] and innerPlan[State]
macros, but a few places didn't do it like that.  For consistency
and readability, convert all the stragglers to use the macros.

Fujii Masao 62c46eee22 Add checkpoint and REDO LSN to log_checkpoints message.
It is useful for debugging purposes to report the checkpoint LSN and
REDO LSN in log_checkpoints message. It can give more context while
analyzing checkpoint-related issues. pg_controldata reports the last
checkpoint LSN and REDO LSN, but having this information alongside
the log message helps analyze issues that happened previously,
connect the dots and identify the root cause.

Dean Rasheed 8d367a44d3 Fix alias matching in transformLockingClause().
When locking a specific named relation for a FOR [KEY] UPDATE/SHARE
clause, transformLockingClause() finds the relation to lock by
scanning the rangetable for an RTE with a matching eref->aliasname.
However, it failed to account for the visibility rules of a join RTE.

If a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, it will have a
generated eref->aliasname of "unnamed_join" that is not visible as a
relation name in the parse namespace. Such an RTE needs to be skipped,
otherwise it might be found in preference to a regular base relation
with a user-supplied alias of "unnamed_join", preventing it from being
locked.

In addition, if a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, but
does have a join_using_alias, then the RTE needs to be matched using
that alias rather than the generated eref->aliasname, otherwise a
misleading "relation not found" error will be reported rather than a
"join cannot be locked" error.

Backpatch all the way, except for the second part which only goes back
to 14, where JOIN USING aliases were added.

Michael Paquier 495ed0ef2d Make Windows 10 the minimal runtime requirement for WIN32
This commit bumps the runtime value of _WIN32_WINNT to be 0x0A00 for any
builds on Windows.  Hence, this makes Windows 10 the minimal requirement
when running PostgreSQL under WIN32, be it for builds of Cygwin, MinGW
or Visual Studio.

The previous minimal runtime version was either Windows Vista when
building with at least Visual Studio 2015 or Windows XP for the rest.

Windows 10 is the most modern version supported by Microsoft, and per
discussion, as we don't have buildfarm members that run older versions
anymore, this is the minimal supported version that suits better for our
needs.  This will actually make easier the development of some patches,
two being async I/O and large page handling by avoiding a lot of
compatibility gotchas, on platforms that have most likely few users
anyway.

It is possible to remove MIN_WINNT in win32.h and the macros
IsWindowsXXXOrGreater() that were used in the code at runtime to check
which version of Windows was getting used.  The change in pg_locale.c
comes from Juan.  Note that all my tests passed, and that the CI is
green.  The buildfarm will quickly tell if this needs more adjustments.

David Rowley 0229106afa Overload index_form_tuple to allow the memory context to be supplied
40af10b57 changed things so we make use of a generation memory context for
storing tuples to be sorted by tuplesort.c. That change does not play
nicely with the changes made in 9f03ca915 (back in 2014). That commit
changed things so that index_form_tuple() is called while switched into
the tuplestore's tuplecontext. In order to fetch the tuple from the index,
index_form_tuple() must do various memory allocations which are unrelated
to the storage of the final returned tuple. Although all of these
allocations are pfree'd, the fact that we now use a generation context
means that the memory for these pfree'd allocations won't be used again by
any other allocation due to generation.c's lack of freelists.  This could
result in sorts used for building indexes exceeding maintenance_work_mem
by a very large amount.

Here we fix it so we no longer allocate anything apart from the tuple
itself into the generation context by adding a new version of
index_form_tuple named index_form_tuple_context, which can be called to
specify the MemoryContext to allocate the tuple into.

Robert Haas 2d7ead8526 pg_stat_statements: Fix test that assumes wal_records = rows.
It's not very robust to assume that each inserted row will produce
exactly one WAL record and that no other WAL records will be generated
in the process, because for example a particular transaction could
always be the one that has to extend clog.

Because these tests are not run by 'make installcheck' but only by
'make check', it may be that in our current testing infrastructure
this can't be hit, but it doesn't seem like a good idea to rely on
that, since unrelated changes to the regression tests or the way
write-ahead logging is done could easily cause it to start happening,
and debugging such failures is a pain.

Adjust the regression test to be less sensitive.

Robert Haas b0a55e4329 Change internal RelFileNode references to RelFileNumber or RelFileLocator.
We have been using the term RelFileNode to refer to either (1) the
integer that is used to name the sequence of files for a certain relation
within the directory set aside for that tablespace/database combination;
or (2) that value plus the OIDs of the tablespace and database; or
occasionally (3) the whole series of files created for a relation
based on those values. Using the same name for more than one thing is
confusing.

Replace RelFileNode with RelFileNumber when we're talking about just the
single number, i.e. (1) from above, and with RelFileLocator when we're
talking about all the things that are needed to locate a relation's files
on disk, i.e. (2) from above. In the places where we refer to (3) as
a relfilenode, instead refer to "relation storage".

Since there is a ton of SQL code in the world that knows about
pg_class.relfilenode, don't change the name of that column, or of other
SQL-facing things that derive their name from it.

On the other hand, do adjust closely-related internal terminology. For
example, the structure member names dbNode and spcNode appear to be
derived from the fact that the structure itself was called RelFileNode,
so change those to dbOid and spcOid. Likewise, various variables with
names like rnode and relnode get renamed appropriately, according to
how they're being used in context.

Hopefully, this is clearer than before. It is also preparation for
future patches that intend to widen the relfilenumber fields from its
current width of 32 bits. Variables that store a relfilenumber are now
declared as type RelFileNumber rather than type Oid; right now, these
are the same, but that can now more easily be changed.

David Rowley fe3caa1439 Remove size increase in ExprEvalStep caused by hashed saops
50e17ad28 increased the size of ExprEvalStep from 64 bytes up to 88 bytes.
Lots of effort was spent during the development of the current expression
evaluation code to make an instance of this struct as small as possible.
Making this struct larger than needed reduces CPU cache efficiency during
expression evaluation which causes noticeable slowdowns during query
execution.

In order to reduce the size of the struct, here we remove the fn_addr
field. The values from this field can be obtained via fcinfo, just with
some extra pointer dereferencing. The extra indirection does not seem to
cause any noticeable slowdowns.

Various other fields have been moved into the ScalarArrayOpExprHashTable
struct. These fields are only used when the ScalarArrayOpExprHashTable
pointer has already been dereferenced, so no additional pointer
dereferences occur for these. Here we also make hash_fcinfo_data the last
field in ScalarArrayOpExprHashTable so that we can avoid a further pointer
dereference to get the FunctionCallInfoBaseData. This also saves a call to
palloc().

50e17ad28 was added in 14, but it's too late to adjust the size of the
ExprEvalStep in that version, so here we just backpatch to 15, which is
currently in beta.

Peter Eisentraut b55f62abb2 Unify DLSUFFIX on Darwin
macOS has traditionally used extension .dylib for shared libraries

dlopen()).  This complicates the build system a bit.  Also, Meson uses
.dylib for both, so it would be worth unifying this in order to be
able to get equal build output.

There doesn't appear to be any reason to use any particular extension
for dlopened modules, since dlopen() will accept anything and
PostgreSQL is well-factored to be able to deal with any extension.
Other software packages that I have handy appear to be about 50/50
split on which extension they use for their plugins.  So it seems
possible to change this safely.

Andres Freund 056cc366fa pgstat: reduce timer overhead by leaving timer running.
Previously the timer was enabled whenever there were any pending stats after
executing a statement, just to then be disabled again when not idle
anymore. That lead to an increase in GetCurrentTimestamp() calls from within
timeout.c compared to 14.

To avoid that increase, leave the timer enabled until stats are reported,
rather than until idle. The timer is only disabled once the pending stats have
been reported.

For me this fixes the increase in GetCurrentTimestamp() calls, there now are
fewer calls in 15 than in 14, in the previously slowed down workload.

While at it, also update assertion in pgstat_report_stat() to be more precise.

libpq: Improve idle state handling in pipeline mode
We were going into IDLE state too soon when executing queries via
PQsendQuery in pipeline mode, causing several scenarios to misbehave in
different ways -- most notably, as reported by Daniele Varrazzo, that a
warning message is produced by libpq:
  message type 0x33 arrived from server while idle
But it is also possible, if queries are sent and results consumed not in
lockstep, for the expected mediating NULL result values from PQgetResult
to be lost (a problem which has not been reported, but which is more
serious).

Fix this by introducing two new concepts: one is a command queue element
PGQUERY_CLOSE to tell libpq to wait for the CloseComplete server
response to the Close message that is sent by PQsendQuery.  Because the
application is not expecting any PGresult from this, the mechanism to
consume it is a bit hackish.

The other concept, authored by Horiguchi-san, is a PGASYNC_PIPELINE_IDLE
state for libpq's state machine to differentiate "really idle" from
merely "the idle state that occurs in between reading results from the
server for elements in the pipeline".  This makes libpq not go fully
IDLE when the libpq command queue contains entries; in normal cases, we
only go IDLE once at the end of the pipeline, when the server response
to the final SYNC message is received.  (However, there are corner cases
it doesn't fix, such as terminating the query sequence by
PQsendFlushRequest instead of PQpipelineSync; this sort of scenario is
what requires PGQUERY_CLOSE bit above.)

This last bit helps make the libpq state machine clearer; in particular
we can get rid of an ugly hack in pqParseInput3 to avoid considering
IDLE as such when the command queue contains entries.

A new test mode is added to libpq_pipeline.c to tickle some related
problematic cases.

Michael Paquier dac1ff3090 Replace durable_rename_excl() by durable_rename(), take two
durable_rename_excl() attempts to avoid overwriting any existing files
by using link() and unlink(), and it falls back to rename() on some
platforms (aka WIN32), which offers no such overwrite protection.  Most
callers use durable_rename_excl() just in case there is an existing
file, but in practice there shouldn't be one (see below for more
details).

Furthermore, failures during durable_rename_excl() can result in
multiple hard links to the same file.  As per Nathan's tests, it is
possible to end up with two links to the same file in pg_wal after a
crash just before unlink() during WAL recycling.  Specifically, the test
produced links to the same file for the current WAL file and the next
one because the half-recycled WAL file was re-recycled upon restarting,
leading to WAL corruption.

This change replaces all the calls of durable_rename_excl() to
durable_rename().  This removes the protection against accidentally
overwriting an existing file, but some platforms are already living
without it and ordinarily there shouldn't be one.  The function itself
is left around in case any extensions are using it.  It will be removed
on HEAD via a follow-up commit.

Here is a summary of the existing callers of durable_rename_excl() (see
second discussion link at the bottom), replaced by this commit.  First,
basic_archive used it to avoid overwriting an archive concurrently
created by another server, but as mentioned above, it will still
overwrite files on some platforms.  Second, xlog.c uses it to recycle
past WAL segments, where an overwrite should not happen (origin of the
change at f0e37a8) because there are protections about the WAL segment
to select when recycling an entry.  The third and last area is related
to the write of timeline history files.  writeTimeLineHistory() will
write a new timeline history file at the end of recovery on promotion,
so there should be no such files for the same timeline.
What remains is writeTimeLineHistoryFile(), that can be used in parallel
by a WAL receiver and the startup process, and some digging of the
buildfarm shows that EEXIST from a WAL receiver can happen with an error
of "could not link file \"pg_wal/xlogtemp.NN\" to \"pg_wal/MM.history\",
which would cause an automatic restart of the WAL receiver as it is
promoted to FATAL, hence this should improve the stability of the WAL
receiver as rename() would overwrite an existing TLI history file
already fetched by the startup process at recovery.

This is a bug fix, but knowing the unlikeliness of the problem involving
one or more crashes at an exceptionally bad moment, no backpatch is
done.  Also, I want to be careful with such changes (aaa3aed did the
opposite of this change by removing HAVE_WORKING_LINK so as Windows
would do a link() rather than a rename() but this was not
concurrent-safe).  A backpatch could be revisited in the future.  This
is the second time this change is attempted, ccfbd92 being the first
one, but this time no assertions are added for the case of a TLI history
file written concurrently by the WAL receiver or the startup process
because we can expect one to exist (some of the TAP tests are able to
trigger with a proper timing).

Implement List support for TransactionId
Use it for RelationSyncEntry->streamed_txns, which is currently using an

The API support is not complete, not because it is hard to write but
because it's unclear that it's worth the code space, there being so
little use of XID lists.

Michael Paquier 55f4802785 Prevent write operations on large objects in read-only transactions
Attempting such an operation would already fail, but in various and
confusing ways.  For example, while in recovery, some elog() messages
would be reported, but these should never be user-facing.  This commit
restricts any write operations done on large objects in a read-only
context, so as the errors generated are more user-friendly.  This is per
the discussion done with Tom Lane and Robert Haas.

Some regression tests are added to check the case of all the SQL
functions working on large objects (including an update of the test's
alternate output).

Tom Lane 255625df1d Use a short socket directory path in pg_upgrade testing.
Several buildfarm members are failing the pg_upgrade test in
REL_15_STABLE, though the identical test is fine in HEAD.
On thorntail it's possible to see that the problem is an
overlength socket path name, and I bet the same is true
on the others.

The normally-started postmasters used in the test are already
set up with short socket directory paths, but we neglected to
tell pg_upgrade itself to do likewise when starting child
postmasters, and indeed it seems to be explicitly selecting
the test directory instead.

Back-patch to v15 where the current test script was introduced.
(The previous script might have the same issue, because I don't
see any use of -s/--socketdir in it either; but we've had no
complaints, so leave it alone for now.)

Tom Lane 22a67fdd5d Simplify tab completion of extension versions, redux.
After commit 662dbe2c8, psql tab completion didn't conveniently
support the case of "ALTER EXTENSION foo UPDATE".  It'd always
add "TO", which is fine if you want to specify a target version
but not if you don't ... and surely the latter is the much more
common case.

To fix, remove "TO" from the initially offered completion; you now
need to press TAB one additional time to get that.  We won't try to
duplicate the old behavior of attempting initial completion on the
target version along with TO.  It's too squirrelly to get the quoting
right, and this is such an infrequent usage that it doesn't seem worth
expending a lot of effort and special code on.

Noted by Noah Misch.  Back-patch to v15.
