The deliverables of upstream Kerberos on Windows are installed with
paths that do not match our MSVC scripts. First, the include folder was
named "inc/" in our scripts, but the upstream MSIs use "include/".
Second, the build would fail with 64-bit environments as the libraries
are named differently.
This commit adjusts the MSVC scripts to be compatible with the latest
installations of upstream, and I have checked that the compilation was
able to work with the 32-bit and 64-bit installations.
Special thanks to Kondo Yuta for the help in investigating the situation
in hamerkop, which had an incorrect configuration for the GSS

SSL renegotiation is already disabled as of 48d23c72, however this does
not prevent the server to comply with a client willing to use
renegotiation. In the last couple of years, renegotiation had its set
of security issues and flaws (like the recent CVE-2021-3449), and it
could be possible to crash the backend with a client attempting
renegotiation.
This commit takes one extra step by disabling renegotiation in the
backend in the same way as SSL compression (f9264d15) or tickets
(97d3a0b0). OpenSSL 1.1.0h has added an option named
SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION able to achieve that. In older versions
there is an option called SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS that
was undocumented, and could be set within the SSL object created when
the TLS connection opens, but I have decided not to use it, as it feels
trickier to rely on, and it is not official. Note that this option is
not usable in OpenSSL < 1.1.0h as the internal contents of the *SSL
object are hidden to applications.
SSL renegotiation concerns protocols up to TLSv1.2.

If we redirected a replicated tuple operation into a partition child
table, and then tried to fire AFTER triggers for that event, the
relation cache entry for the child table was already closed. This has
no visible ill effects as long as the entry is still there and still
valid, but an unluckily-timed cache flush could result in a crash or
other misbehavior.
To fix, postpone the ExecCleanupTupleRouting call (which is what
closes the child table) until after we've fired triggers. This
requires a bit of refactoring so that the cleanup function can
have access to the necessary state.
In HEAD, I took the opportunity to simplify some of worker.c's
function APIs based on use of the new ApplyExecutionData struct.
However, it doesn't seem safe/practical to back-patch that aspect,

This was previously allowed, but I think that was just an oversight.
It's a clear violation of the rule that a generated column cannot
depend on itself or other generated columns. Moreover, because the
code was relying on the assumption that no such cross-references
exist, it was pretty easy to crash ALTER TABLE and perhaps other
places. Even if you managed not to crash, you got quite unstable,
implementation-dependent results.

COMMIT/ROLLBACK necessarily destroys all snapshots within the session.
The original implementation of intra-procedure transactions just
cavalierly did that, ignoring the fact that this left us executing in
a rather different environment than normal. In particular, it turns
out that handling of toasted datums depends rather critically on there
being an outer ActiveSnapshot: otherwise, when SPI or the core
executor pop whatever snapshot they used and return, it's unsafe to
dereference any toasted datums that may appear in the query result.
It's possible to demonstrate "no known snapshots" and "missing chunk
number N for toast value" errors as a result of this oversight.
Historically this outer snapshot has been held by the Portal code,
and that seems like a good plan to preserve. So add infrastructure
to pquery.c to allow re-establishing the Portal-owned snapshot if it's
not there anymore, and add enough bookkeeping support that we can tell
whether it is or not.
We can't, however, just re-establish the Portal snapshot as part of
COMMIT/ROLLBACK. As in normal transaction start, acquiring the first
snapshot should wait until after SET and LOCK commands. Hence, teach
spi.c about doing this at the right time. (Note that this patch
doesn't fix the problem for any PLs that try to run intra-procedure
transactions without using SPI to execute SQL commands.)
This makes SPI's no_snapshots parameter rather a misnomer, so in HEAD,
rename that to allow_nonatomic.
replication/logical/worker.c also needs some fixes, because it wasn't
careful to hold a snapshot open around AFTER trigger execution.
That code doesn't use a Portal, which I suspect someday we're gonna
have to fix. But for now, just rearrange the order of operations.
This includes back-patching the recent addition of finish_estate()
to centralize the cleanup logic there.
This also back-patches commit 2ecfeda3e into v13, to improve the
test coverage for worker.c (it was that test that exposed that
worker.c's snapshot management is wrong).

While applying the truncate change, the logical apply worker acquires
RowExclusiveLock on the relation being truncated. This allowed truncate on
the relation at a time by two apply workers which lead to a deadlock. The
reason was that one of the workers after updating the pg_class tuple tries
to acquire SHARE lock on the relation and started to wait for the second
worker which has acquired RowExclusiveLock on the relation. And when the
second worker tries to update the pg_class tuple, it starts to wait for
the first worker which leads to a deadlock. Fix it by acquiring
AccessExclusiveLock on the relation before applying the truncate change as
we do for normal truncate operation.

exec_for_query() normally tries to prefetch a few rows at a time
from the query being iterated over, so as to reduce executor
entry/exit overhead. Unfortunately this is unsafe if we have
COMMIT or ROLLBACK within the loop, because there might be
TOAST references in the data that we prefetched but haven't
yet examined. Immediately after the COMMIT/ROLLBACK, we have
no snapshots in the session, meaning that VACUUM is at liberty
to remove recently-deleted TOAST rows.
This was originally reported as a case triggering the "no known
snapshots" error in init_toast_snapshot(), but even if you miss
hitting that, you can get "missing toast chunk", as illustrated
by the added isolation test case.
To fix, just disable prefetching in non-atomic contexts. Maybe
there will be performance complaints prompting us to work harder
later, but it's not clear at the moment that this really costs
much, and I doubt we'd want to back-patch any complicated fix.
In passing, adjust that error message in init_toast_snapshot()

ForgetBackgroundWorker lacked any memory barrier at all, while
BackgroundWorkerStateChange had one but unaccountably did

that the load of bgw_notify_pid is in the caller doesn't seem

Add a defensive "can't happen" error to code that handles nbtree posting
list splits (promote an existing assertion). This avoids a segfault in
the event of an insertion of a newitem that is somehow identical to an
existing non-pivot tuple in the index. An nbtree index should never
have two index tuples with identical TIDs.
This scenario is not particular unlikely in the event of any kind of
corruption that leaves the index in an inconsistent state relative to
the heap relation that is indexed. There are two known reports of
preventable hard crashes. Doing nothing seems unacceptable given the
general expectation that nbtree will cope reasonably well with corrupt
data.

Backpatch: 13-, where nbtree deduplication was introduced.
Formerly we just relied on operator classes that assert longValuesOK
to eventually shorten the leaf value enough to fit on an index page.
That fails since the introduction of INCLUDE-column support (commit
09c1c6ab4), because the INCLUDE columns might alone take up more
than a page, meaning no amount of leaf-datum compaction will get
the job done. At least with spgtextproc.c, that leads to an infinite
loop, since spgtextproc.c won't throw an error for not being able
to shorten the leaf datum anymore.
To fix without breaking cases that would otherwise work, add logic
to spgdoinsert() to verify that the leaf tuple size is decreasing
after each "choose" step. Some opclasses might not decrease the
size on every single cycle, and in any case, alignment roundoff
of the tuple size could obscure small gains. Therefore, allow
up to 10 cycles without additional savings before throwing an
error. (Perhaps this number will need adjustment, but it seems
quite generous right now.)
As long as we've developed this logic, let's back-patch it.
The back branches don't have INCLUDE columns to worry about, but
this seems like a good defense against possible bugs in operator
classes. We already know that an infinite loop here is pretty
unpleasant, so having a defense seems to outweigh the risk of
breaking things. (Note that spgtextproc.c is actually the only
known opclass with longValuesOK support, so that this is all moot
for known non-core opclasses anyway.)

Knowing that a buggy opclass could cause an infinite insertion loop,
spgdoinsert() intended to allow its loop to be interrupted by query
cancel. However, that never actually worked, because in iterations
after the first, we'd be holding buffer lock(s) which would cause
InterruptHoldoffCount to be positive, preventing servicing of the
interrupt.
To fix, check if an interrupt is pending, and if so fall out of
the insertion loop and service the interrupt after we've released
the buffers. If it was indeed a query cancel, that's the end of
the matter. If it was a non-canceling interrupt reason, make use
of the existing provision to retry the whole insertion. (This isn't
as wasteful as it might seem, since any upper-level index tuples we
already created should be usable in the next attempt.)
While there's no known instance of such a bug in existing release
branches, it still seems like a good idea to back-patch this to
all supported branches, since the behavior is fairly nasty if a
loop does happen --- not only is it uncancelable, but it will
quickly consume memory to the point of an OOM failure. In any
case, this code is certainly not working as intended.

Several queries in the privileges regression test cause the planner
to apply the plpgsql function "leak()" to every element of the
histogram for atest12.b. Since commit 0c882e52a increased the size
of that histogram to 10000 entries, the test invokes that function
over 100000 times, which takes an absolutely unreasonable amount of
time in clobber-cache-always mode.
However, there's no real reason why that has to be a plpgsql
function: for the purposes of this test, all that matters is that
it not be marked leakproof. So we can replace the plpgsql
implementation with a direct call of int4lt, which has the same
behavior and is orders of magnitude faster. This is expected to
cut several hours off the buildfarm cycle time for CCA animals.
It has some positive impact in normal builds too, though that's

It's unusual to have any resjunk columns in an ON CONFLICT ... UPDATE
list, but it can happen when MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK SubPlans are present.
If it happens, the ON CONFLICT UPDATE code path would end up storing
tuples that include the values of the extra resjunk columns. That's
fairly harmless in the short run, but if new columns are added to
the table then the values would become accessible, possibly leading
to malfunctions if they don't match the datatypes of the new columns.
This had escaped notice through a confluence of missing sanity checks,
including
* There's no cross-check that a tuple presented to heap_insert or
heap_update matches the table rowtype. While it's difficult to
check that fully at reasonable cost, we can easily add assertions
that there aren't too many columns.
* The output-column-assignment cases in execExprInterp.c lacked
any sanity checks on the output column numbers, which seems like
an oversight considering there are plenty of assertion checks on
input column numbers. Add assertions there too.
* We failed to apply nodeModifyTable's ExecCheckPlanOutput() to
the ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlist. That wouldn't have caught this
specific error, since that function is chartered to ignore resjunk
columns; but it sure seems like a bad omission now that we've seen
this bug.
In HEAD, the right way to fix this is to make the processing of
ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlists work the same as regular UPDATE tlists
now do, that is don't add "SET x = x" entries, and use
ExecBuildUpdateProjection to evaluate the tlist and combine it with
old values of the not-set columns. This adds a little complication
to ExecBuildUpdateProjection, but allows removal of a comparable
amount of now-dead code from the planner.
In the back branches, the most expedient solution seems to be to
(a) use an output slot for the ON CONFLICT UPDATE projection that
actually matches the target table, and then (b) invent a variant of
ExecBuildProjectionInfo that can be told to not store values resulting
from resjunk columns, so it doesn't try to store into nonexistent
columns of the output slot. (We can't simply ignore the resjunk columns
altogether; they have to be evaluated for MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK to work.)
This works back to v10. In 9.6, projections work much differently and
we can't cheaply give them such an option. The 9.6 version of this
patch works by inserting a JunkFilter when it's necessary to get rid
of resjunk columns.
In addition, v11 and up have the reverse problem when trying to
perform ON CONFLICT UPDATE on a partitioned table. Through a
further oversight, adjust_partition_tlist() discarded resjunk columns
when re-ordering the ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlist to match a partition.
This accidentally prevented the storing-bogus-tuples problem, but
at the cost that MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK cases didn't work, typically
crashing if more than one row has to be updated. Fix by preserving
resjunk columns in that routine. (I failed to resist the temptation
to add more assertions there too, and to do some minor code
beautification.)

Security: CVE-2021-32028
While we were (mostly) careful about ensuring that the dimensions of
arrays aren't large enough to cause integer overflow, the lower bound
values were generally not checked. This allows situations where
lower_bound + dimension overflows an integer. It seems that that's
harmless so far as array reading is concerned, except that array
elements with subscripts notionally exceeding INT_MAX are inaccessible.
However, it confuses various array-assignment logic, resulting in a
potential for memory stomps.
Fix by adding checks that array lower bounds aren't large enough to
cause lower_bound + dimension to overflow. (Note: this results in
disallowing cases where the last subscript position would be exactly
INT_MAX. In principle we could probably allow that, but there's a lot
of code that computes lower_bound + dimension and would need adjustment.
It seems doubtful that it's worth the trouble/risk to allow it.)
Somewhat independently of that, array_set_element() was careless
about possible overflow when checking the subscript of a fixed-length
array, creating a different route to memory stomps. Fix that too.

When ALTER TABLE .. ALTER CONSTRAINT changes deferrability properties
changed in a partitioned table, we failed to propagate those changes
correctly to partitions and to triggers. Repair by adding a recursion
mechanism to affect all derived constraints and all derived triggers.
(In particular, recurse to partitions even if their respective parents
are already in the desired state: it is possible for the partitions to
have been altered individually.) Because foreign keys involve tables in
two sides, we cannot use the standard ALTER TABLE recursion mechanism,
so we invent our own by following pg_constraint.conparentid down.
When ALTER TABLE .. ALTER CONSTRAINT is invoked on the derived
pg_constraint object that's automaticaly created in a partition as a
result of a constraint added to its parent, raise an error instead of
pretending to work and then failing to modify all the affected triggers.
Before this commit such a command would be allowed but failed to affect

In addition, because genbki.pl does not guarantee that auto-generated

the composite type associated with a system catalog or view is
non-upgradable. It seems unlikely that someone would have a user

Attempting to use this function with event triggers failed, as, since
its introduction in a676201, this code has never associated an object
name with event triggers. This addresses the failure by adding the
event trigger name to the set defining its object address.
Note that regression tests are added within event_trigger and not
object_address to avoid issues with concurrent connections in parallel
schedules.

Backpatch-through: 9.6
For some reason, the "julian" option for extract()/date_part() has
never gotten listed in the manual. Also, while Appendix B mentioned
in passing that we don't conform to the usual astronomical definition
that a Julian date starts at noon UTC, it was kind of vague about what
we do instead. Clarify that, and add an example showing how to get
the astronomical definition if you want it.
It's been like this for ages, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Previously it was documented that if using "-X none" option there was
no guarantee that all required WAL files were archived at the end of
pg_basebackup when taking a backup from the standby. But this limitation
was removed by commit 52f8a59dd9. Now, even when taking a backup
from the standby, pg_basebackup can wait for all required WAL files
to be archived. Therefore this commit removes such obsolete
description from the docs.
Also this commit adds new description about the limitation when
taking a backup from the standby, into the docs. The limitation is that
pg_basebackup cannot force the standbfy to switch to a new WAL file
at the end of backup, which may cause pg_basebackup to wait a long
time for the last required WAL file to be switched and archived,
especially when write activity on the primary is low.
Back-patch to v10 where the issue was introduced.

Adopt a more consistent policy about what slot-type-specific
getsysattr functions should do when system attributes are not
available. To wit, they should all throw the same user-oriented
error, rather than variously crashing or emitting developer-oriented
messages.
This closes a identifiable problem in commits a71cfc56b and
3fb93103a (in v13 and v12), so back-patch into those branches,
along with a test case to try to ensure we don't break it again.
It is not known that any of the former crash cases are reachable
in HEAD, but this seems like a good safety improvement in any case.
