Ensure that all temp files made during pg_upgrade are non-world-readable.

pg_upgrade has always attempted to ensure that the transient dump files  
it creates are inaccessible except to the owner.  However, refactoring  
in commit 76a7650c4 broke that for the file containing "pg_dumpall -g"  
output; since then, that file was protected according to the process's  
default umask.  Since that file may contain role passwords (hopefully  
encrypted, but passwords nonetheless), this is a particularly unfortunate  
oversight.  Prudent users of pg_upgrade on multiuser systems would  
probably run it under a umask tight enough that the issue is moot, but  
perhaps some users are depending only on pg_upgrade's umask changes to  
protect their data.  
  
To fix this in a future-proof way, let's just tighten the umask at  
process start.  There are no files pg_upgrade needs to write at a  
weaker security level; and if there were, transiently relaxing the  
umask around where they're created would be a safer approach.  
  
Report and patch by Tom Lane; the idea for the fix is due to Noah Misch.  
Back-patch to all supported branches.

Failure to advance the list pointer while reading partition expressions  
from a list results in invoking an input function with inappropriate data,  
possibly leading to crashes or, with carefully crafted input, disclosure  
of arbitrary backend memory.  
  
Bug discovered independently by Álvaro Herrera and David Rowley.  
This patch is by Álvaro but owes something to David's proposed fix.  
Back-patch to v10 where the issue was introduced.

Be more wary about shm_toc_lookup failure.

Commit 445dbd82a basically missed the point of commit d46633506,  
which was that we shouldn't allow shm_toc_lookup() failure to lead  
to a core dump or assertion crash, because the odds of such a  
failure should never be considered negligible.  It's correct that  
we can't expect the PARALLEL_KEY_ERROR_QUEUE TOC entry to be there  
if we have no workers.  But if we have no workers, we're not going  
to do anything in this function with the lookup result anyway,  
so let's just skip it.  That lets the code use the easy-to-prove-safe  
noError=false case, rather than anything requiring effort to review.  
  
Back-patch to v10, like the previous commit.

Fix application of identity values in some cases

Investigation of 2d2d06b7e27e3177d5bef0061801c75946871db3 revealed that  
identity values were not applied in some further cases, including  
logical replication subscribers, VALUES RTEs, and ALTER TABLE ... ADD  
COLUMN.  To fix all that, apply the identity column expression in  
build_column_default() instead of repeating the same logic at each call  
site.  
  
For ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN ... IDENTITY, the previous coding  
completely ignored that existing rows for the new column should have  
values filled in from the identity sequence.  The coding using  
build_column_default() fails for this because the sequence ownership  
isn't registered until after ALTER TABLE, and we can't do it before  
because we don't have the column in the catalog yet.  So we specially  
remember in ColumnDef the sequence name that we decided on and build a  
custom NextValueExpr using that.

Technically, pg_upgrade's --old-datadir and --new-datadir are  
configuration directories, not necessarily data directories.  This is  
reflected in the 'postgres' manual page, so do the same for pg_upgrade.

The old code generated always generated a constraint of the form  
col = ANY(ARRAY[val1, val2, ...]), but that's invalid when col is an  
array type.  Instead, generate col = val when there's only one value,  
col = val1 OR col = val2 OR ... when there are multiple values and  
col is of array type, and the old form when there are multiple values  
and col is not of an array type.  
  
As a side benefit, this makes constraint exclusion able to prune  
a list partition declared to accept a single Boolean value, which  
didn't work before.

Commit 4bbf6edfbd5d03743ff82dda2f00c738fb3208f5 added a test case,  
but it turns out that the test case doesn't reliably test for the  
bug, and in the context of the regression test suite did not because  
ANALYZE had not been run.

Prevent growth of simplehash tables when they're "too empty".

In cases where simplehash tables where filled with either a lot of  
conflicting hash-values, or values that hash to consecutive  
values (i.e. build "chains") the growth heuristics in  
d4c62a6b623d6eef88218158e9fa3cf974c6c7e5 could trigger rather  
explosively.  
  
To fix that, address some of the reasons (see previous commit) of why  
the growth heuristics where needed, and only allow growth when the  
table isn't too empty. While that means there's a few cases of bad  
input that can be slower, that seems a lot better than running very  
quickly out of memory.

The changes in b81b5a96f424531b97cdd1dba97d9d1b9c9d372e did not fully  
address the issue, because the bit-mixing of the IV into the final  
hash-key didn't prevent clustering in the input-data survive in the  
output data.  
  
This didn't cause a lot of problems because of the additional growth  
conditions added d4c62a6b623d6eef88218158e9fa3cf974c6c7e5. But as we  
want to rein those in due to explosive growth in some edges, this  
needs to be fixed.

create_plan_recurse lacked any stack depth check.  This is not per  
our normal coding rules, but I'd supposed it was safe because earlier  
planner processing is more complex and presumably should eat more  
stack.  But bug #15033 from Andrew Grossman shows this isn't true,  
at least not for queries having the form of a many-thousand-way  
INTERSECT stack.  
  
Further testing showed that recurse_set_operations is also capable  
of being crashed in this way, since it likewise will recurse to the  
bottom of a parsetree before calling any support functions that  
might themselves contain any stack checks.  However, its stack  
consumption is only perhaps a third of create_plan_recurse's.  
  
It's possible that this particular problem with create_plan_recurse can  
only manifest in 9.6 and later, since before that we didn't build a Path  
tree for set operations.  But having seen this example, I now have no  
faith in the proposition that create_plan_recurse doesn't need a stack  
check, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Avoid crash during EvalPlanQual recheck of an inner indexscan.

Commit 09529a70b changed nodeIndexscan.c and nodeIndexonlyscan.c to  
postpone initialization of the indexscan proper until the first tuple  
fetch.  It overlooked the question of mark/restore behavior, which means  
that if some caller attempts to mark the scan before the first tuple fetch,  
you get a null pointer dereference.  
  
The only existing user of mark/restore is nodeMergejoin.c, which (somewhat  
accidentally) will never attempt to set a mark before the first inner tuple  
unless the inner child node is a Material node.  Hence the case can't arise  
normally, so it seems sufficient to document the assumption at both ends.  
However, during an EvalPlanQual recheck, ExecScanFetch doesn't call  
IndexNext but just returns the jammed-in test tuple.  Therefore, if we're  
doing a recheck in a plan tree with a mergejoin with inner indexscan,  
it's possible to reach ExecIndexMarkPos with iss_ScanDesc still null,  
as reported by Guo Xiang Tan in bug #15032.  
  
Really, when there's a test tuple supplied during an EPQ recheck, touching  
the index at all is the wrong thing: rather, the behavior of mark/restore  
ought to amount to saving and restoring the es_epqScanDone flag.  We can  
avoid finding a place to actually save the flag, for the moment, because  
given the assumption that no caller will set a mark before fetching a  
tuple, es_epqScanDone must always be set by the time we try to mark.  
So the actual behavior change required is just to not reach the index  
access if a test tuple is supplied.  
  
The set of plan node types that need to consider this issue are those  
that support EPQ test tuples (i.e., call ExecScan()) and also support  
mark/restore; which is to say, IndexScan, IndexOnlyScan, and perhaps  
CustomScan.  It's tempting to try to fix the problem in one place by  
teaching ExecMarkPos() itself about EPQ; but ExecMarkPos supports some  
plan types that aren't Scans, and also it seems risky to make assumptions  
about what a CustomScan wants to do here.  Also, the most likely future  
change here is to decide that we do need to support marks placed before  
the first tuple, which would require additional work in IndexScan and  
IndexOnlyScan in any case.  Hence, fix the EPQ issue in nodeIndexscan.c  
and nodeIndexonlyscan.c, accepting the small amount of code duplicated  
thereby, and leave it to CustomScan providers to fix this bug if they  
have it.  
  
Back-patch to v10 where commit 09529a70b came in.  In earlier branches,  
the index_markpos() call is a waste of cycles when EPQ is active, but  
no more than that, so it doesn't seem appropriate to back-patch further.

If we're inside a lateral subquery, there may be no unparameterized paths  
for a particular child relation of an appendrel, in which case we *must*  
be able to create similarly-parameterized paths for each other child  
relation, else the planner will fail with "could not devise a query plan  
for the given query".  This means that there are situations where we'd  
better be able to reparameterize at least one path for each child.  
  
This calls into question the assumption in reparameterize_path() that  
it can just punt if it feels like it.  However, the only case that is  
known broken right now is where the child is itself an appendrel so that  
all its paths are AppendPaths.  (I think possibly I disregarded that in  
the original coding on the theory that nested appendrels would get folded  
together --- but that only happens *after* reparameterize_path(), so it's  
not excused from handling a child AppendPath.)  Given that this code's been  
like this since 9.3 when LATERAL was introduced, it seems likely we'd have  
heard of other cases by now if there were a larger problem.  
  
Per report from Elvis Pranskevichus.  Back-patch to 9.3.

Commit 28724fd90d2f85a0573a8107b48abad062a86d83 fixed things so that  
if a background worker fails to start due to fork() failure or because  
it is terminated before startup succeeds, BGWH_STOPPED will be  
reported.  However, that only helps if the code that uses the  
background worker machinery notices the change in status, and the code  
in parallel.c did not.  
  
To fix that, do two things.  First, make sure that when a worker  
exits, it triggers the leader to read from error queues.  That way, if  
a worker which has attached to an error queue exits uncleanly, the  
leader is sure to throw some error, either the contents of the  
ErrorResponse sent by the worker, or "lost connection to parallel  
worker" if it exited without sending one.  To cover the case where  
the worker never starts up in the first place or exits before  
attaching to the error queue, the ParallelContext now keeps track  
of which workers have sent at least one message via the error  
queue.  A worker which sends no messages by the time the parallel  
operation finishes will be checked to see whether it exited before  
attaching to the error queue; if so, a new error message, "parallel  
worker failed to initialize", will be reported.  If not, we'll  
continue to wait until it either starts up and exits cleanly, starts  
up and exits uncleanly, or fails to start, and then take the  
appropriate action.

_tocEntryRequired() expects that it can identify ACL, SECURITY LABEL,  
and COMMENT TOC entries that are for large objects by seeing whether  
the tag for them starts with "LARGE OBJECT ".  While that works fine  
for actual large objects, which are indeed tagged that way, it's  
subject to false positives unless every such entry's tag starts with an  
appropriate type ID.  And in fact it does not work for ACLs, because  
up to now we customarily tagged those entries with just the bare name  
of the object.  This means that an ACL for an object named  
"LARGE OBJECT something" would be misclassified as data not schema,  
with undesirable results in a schema-only or data-only dump ---  
although pg_upgrade seems unaffected, due to the special case for  
binary-upgrade mode further down in _tocEntryRequired().  
  
We can fix this by changing all the dumpACL calls to use the label  
strings already in use for comments and security labels, which do  
follow the convention of starting with an object type indicator.  
  
Well, mostly they follow it.  dumpDatabase() got it wrong, using  
just the bare database name for those purposes, so that a database  
named "LARGE OBJECT something" would similarly be subject to having  
its comment or security label dropped or included when not wanted.  
Bring that into line too.  (Note that up to now, database ACLs have  
not been processed by pg_dump, so that this issue doesn't affect them.)  
  
_tocEntryRequired() itself is not free of fault: it was overly liberal  
about matching object tags to "LARGE OBJECT " in binary-upgrade mode.  
This looks like it is probably harmless because there would be no data  
component to strip anyway in that mode, but at best it's trouble  
waiting to happen, so tighten that up too.  
  
The possible misclassification of SECURITY LABEL entries for databases is  
in principle a security problem, but the opportunities for actual exploits  
seem too narrow to be interesting.  The other cases seem like just bugs,  
since an object owner can change its ACL or comment for himself, he needn't  
try to trick someone else into doing it by choosing a strange name.  
  
This has been broken since per-large-object TOC entries were introduced  
in 9.0, so back-patch to all supported branches.

v3_ca extensions and where to place intermediate certificates so they  
are properly transferred to the remote side with the leaf certificate to

For no apparent reason, this function was using a 16bit-wide inhseqno  
value, rather than the correct 32 bit width which is what is stored in  
the pg_inherits catalog.  This becomes evident if you try to create a  
table with more than 65535 parents, because this error appears:  
  
ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint «pg_inherits_relid_seqno_index»  
DETAIL:  Key (inhrelid, inhseqno)=(329371, 0) already exists.  
  
Needless to say, having so many parents is an uncommon situations, which  
explains why this error has never been reported despite being having  
been introduced with the Postgres95 1.01 sources in commit d31084e9d111:

On Sparc64, use of __attribute__(aligned(8)) with __int128 causes faulty  
code generation in gcc versions at least through 5.5.0.  We can work around  
that by disabling use of __int128, so teach configure to test for the bug.  
  
This solution doesn't fix things for the case of cross-compiling with a  
buggy compiler; to support that nicely, we'd need to add a manual disable  
switch.  Unless more such cases turn up, it doesn't seem worth the work.  
Affected users could always edit pg_config.h manually.  
  
In passing, fix some typos in the existing configure test for __int128.  
They're harmless because we only compile that code not run it, but  
they're still confusing for anyone looking at it closely.  
  
This is needed in support of commit 751804998, so back-patch to 9.5  
as that was.

postgres_fdw: Avoid 'outer pathkeys do not match mergeclauses' error.

When pushing down a join to a foreign server, postgres_fdw constructs  
an alternative plan to be used for any EvalPlanQual rechecks that  
prove to be necessary.  This plan is stored as the outer subplan of  
the Foreign Scan implementing the pushed-down join.  Previously, this  
alternative plan could have a different nominal sort ordering than its  
parent, which seemed OK since there will only be one tuple per base  
table anyway in the case of an EvalPlanQual recheck.  Actually,  
though, it caused a problem if that path was used as a building block  
for the EvalPlanQual recheck plan of a higher-level foreign join,  
because we could end up with a merge join one of whose inputs was not  
labelled with the correct sort order.  Repair by injecting an extra  
Sort node into the EvalPlanQual recheck plan whenever it would  
otherwise fail to be sorted at least as well as its parent Foreign  
Scan.

Commit 7012b132d, which added the ability to push down aggregates and  
grouping to the remote server, wasn't careful to ensure that the remote  
server would have the same idea we do about which columns are the grouping  
columns, in cases where there are textually identical GROUP BY expressions.  
Such cases typically led to "targetlist item has multiple sortgroupref  
labels" errors.  
  
To fix this reliably, switch over to using "GROUP BY column-number" syntax  
rather than "GROUP BY expression" in transmitted queries, and adjust  
foreign_grouping_ok() to be more careful about duplicating the sortgroupref  
labeling of the local pathtarget.  
  
Per bug #14890 from Sean Johnston.  Back-patch to v10 where the buggy code  
was introduced.

Avoid unnecessary failure in SELECT concurrent with ALTER NO INHERIT.

If a query against an inheritance tree runs concurrently with an ALTER  
TABLE that's disinheriting one of the tree members, it's possible to get  
a "could not find inherited attribute" error because after obtaining lock  
on the removed member, make_inh_translation_list sees that its columns  
have attinhcount=0 and decides they aren't the columns it's looking for.  
  
An ideal fix, perhaps, would avoid including such a just-removed member  
table in the query at all; but there seems no way to accomplish that  
without adding expensive catalog rechecks or creating a likelihood of  
deadlocks.  Instead, let's just drop the check on attinhcount.  In this  
way, a query that's included a just-disinherited child will still  
succeed, which is not a completely unreasonable behavior.  
  
This problem has existed for a long time, so back-patch to all supported  
branches.  Also add an isolation test verifying related behaviors.  
  
Patch by me; the new isolation test is based on Kyotaro Horiguchi's work.

If we flatten a subquery whose target list contains constants or  
expressions, when those output columns are used in GROUPING SET columns,  
the planner was capable of doing the wrong thing by merging a pulled-up  
expression into the surrounding expression during const-simplification.  
Then the late processing that attempts to match subexpressions to grouping  
sets would fail to match those subexpressions to grouping sets, with the  
effect that they'd not go to null when expected.  
  
To fix, wrap such subquery outputs in PlaceHolderVars, ensuring that  
they preserve their separate identity throughout the planner's expression  
processing.  This is a bit of a band-aid, because the wrapper defeats  
const-simplification even in places where it would be safe to allow.  
But a nicer fix would likely be too invasive to back-patch, and the  
consequences of the missed optimizations probably aren't large in most  
cases.  
  
Back-patch to 9.5 where grouping sets were introduced.

~> (cube, int) operator was especially designed for knn-gist search.  
However, it appears that knn-gist search can't work correctly with current  
behavior of this operator when dataset contains cubes of variable  
dimensionality. In this case, the same value of second operator argument  
can point to different dimension depending on dimensionality of particular cube.  
Such behavior is incompatible with gist indexing of cubes, and knn-gist doesn't  
work correctly for it.  
  
This patch changes behavior of ~> (cube, int) operator by introducing dimension  
numbering where value of second argument unambiguously identifies number of  
dimension. With new behavior, this operator can be correctly supported by  
knn-gist. Relevant changes to cube operator class are also included.  
  
Backpatch to v9.6 where operator was introduced.  
  
Since behavior of ~> (cube, int) operator is changed, depending entities  
must be refreshed after upgrade. Such as, expression indexes using this  
operator must be reindexed, materialized views must be rebuilt, stored  
procedures and client code must be revised to correctly use new behavior.  
That should be mentioned in release notes.

These functions are stated to be Oracle-compatible, but they weren't.  
Yugo Nagata noticed that while our code returns zero for a zero or  
negative fourth parameter (occur_index), Oracle throws an error.  
Further testing by me showed that there was also a discrepancy in the  
interpretation of a negative third parameter (beg_index): Oracle thinks  
that a negative beg_index indicates the last place where the target  
substring can *begin*, whereas our code thinks it is the last place  
where the target can *end*.  
  
Adjust the sample code to behave like Oracle in both these respects.  
Also change it to be a CDATA[] section, simplifying copying-and-pasting  
out of the documentation source file.  And fix minor problems in the  
introductory comment, which wasn't very complete or accurate.  
  
Back-patch to all supported branches.  Although this patch only touches  
documentation, we should probably call it out as a bug fix in the next  
minor release notes, since users who have adopted the functions will  
likely want to update their versions.

It seems incorrect to assume that the list of CkptSortItems can never  
contain duplicate page numbers: concurrent activity could result in some  
page getting dropped from a low-numbered buffer and later loaded into a  
high-numbered buffer while BufferSync is scanning the buffer pool.  
If that happened, the comparator would give self-inconsistent results,  
potentially confusing qsort().  Saving one comparison step is not worth  
possibly getting the sort wrong.  
  
So far as I can tell, nothing would actually go wrong given our current  
implementation of qsort().  It might get a bit slower than expected  
if there were a large number of duplicates of one value, but that's  
surely a probability-epsilon case.  Still, the comment is wrong,  
and if we ever switched to another sort implementation it might be  
less forgiving.  
  
In passing, avoid casting away const-ness of the argument pointers;  
I've not seen any compiler complaints from that, but it seems likely  
that some compilers would not like it.  
  
Back-patch to 9.6 where this code came in, just in case I've underestimated  
the possible consequences.

As src/backend/access/transam/README says, PageGetLSN may only be called  
by processes holding either exclusive lock on buffer, or a shared lock  
on buffer plus buffer header lock.  Therefore any place that only holds  
a shared buffer lock must use BufferGetLSNAtomic instead of PageGetLSN,  
which internally obtains buffer header lock prior to reading the LSN.  
  
A few callsites failed to comply with this rule.  This was detected by  
running all tests under a new (not committed) assertion that verifies  
PageGetLSN locking contract.  All but one of the callsites that failed  
the assertion are fixed by this patch.  Remaining callsites were  
inspected manually and determined not to need any change.  
  
The exception (unfixed callsite) is in TestForOldSnapshot, which only  
has a Page argument, making it impossible to access the corresponding  
Buffer from it.  Fixing that seems a much larger patch that will have to  
be done separately; and that's just as well, since it was only  
introduced in 9.6 and other bugs are much older.  
  
Some of these bugs are ancient; backpatch all the way back to 9.3.

The general assumption for postmaster child processes is that they  
should just exit(1), reasonably promptly, if the postmaster disappears.  
condition_variable.c neglected this consideration and could be left  
waiting forever, if the counterpart process it is waiting for has  
done the right thing and exited.  
  
We had some discussion of adjusting the WaitEventSet API to make it  
harder to make this type of mistake in future; but for the moment,

replorigin_drop() misunderstood the API for condition variables: it  
had ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep and ConditionVariableCancelSleep  
inside its test-and-sleep loop, rather than outside the loop as  
intended.  The net effect is a narrow race-condition window wherein,  
if the process using a replication slot releases it immediately after  
replorigin_drop() releases the ReplicationOriginLock, replorigin_drop()  
would get into the condition variable's wait list too late and then  
wait indefinitely for a signal that won't come.  
  
Because there's a different CV for each replication slot, we can't  
just move the ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep call to above the  
test-and-sleep loop.  What we can do, in the wake of commit 13db3b936,  
is drop the ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep call entirely.  This fix  
depends on that commit because (at least in principle) the slot matching  
the target replication origin might move around, so that once in a blue  
moon successive loop iterations might involve different CVs.  We can now  
cope with such a scenario, at the cost of an extra trip through the  
retry loop.  
  
(There are ways we could fix this bug without depending on that commit,  
but they're all a lot more complicated than this way.)  
  
While at it, upgrade the rather skimpy comments in this function.

The original coding here insisted that callers manually cancel any prepared  
sleep for one condition variable before starting a sleep on another one.  
While that's not a huge burden today, it seems like a gotcha that will bite  
us in future if the use of condition variables increases; anything we can  
do to make the use of this API simpler and more robust is attractive.  
Hence, allow these functions to automatically switch their attention to  
a different CV when required.  This is safe for the same reason it was OK  
for commit aced5a92b to let a broadcast operation cancel any prepared CV  
sleep: whenever we return to the other test-and-sleep loop, we will  
automatically re-prepare that CV, paying at most an extra test of that  
loop's exit condition.  
  
Back-patch to v10 where condition variables were introduced.  Ordinarily  
we would probably not back-patch a change like this, but since it does not  
invalidate any coding pattern that was legal before, it seems safe enough.  
Furthermore, there's an open bug in replorigin_drop() for which the  
simplest fix requires this.  Even if we chose to fix that in some more  
complicated way, the hazard would remain that we might back-patch some  
other bug fix that requires this behavior.

In the admittedly-very-unlikely case that AddWaitEventToSet fails,  
ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep would error out after already having  
set cv_sleep_target, which is probably bad, and after having already  
set cv_wait_event_set, which is very bad.  Transaction abort might or  
might not clean up cv_sleep_target properly; but there is nothing  
that would be aware that the WaitEventSet wasn't fully constructed,  
so that all future condition variable sleeps would be broken.  
We can easily guard against these hazards with slight restructuring.  
  
Back-patch to v10 where condition_variable.c was introduced.

Rewrite ConditionVariableBroadcast() to avoid live-lock.

The original implementation of ConditionVariableBroadcast was, per its  
self-description, "the dumbest way possible".  Thomas Munro found out  
it was a bit too dumb.  An awakened process may immediately re-queue  
itself, if the specific condition it's waiting for is not yet satisfied.  
If this happens before ConditionVariableBroadcast is able to see the wait  
queue as empty, then ConditionVariableBroadcast will re-awaken the same  
process, repeating the cycle.  Given unlucky timing this back-and-forth  
can repeat indefinitely; loops lasting thousands of seconds have been  
seen in testing.  
  
To fix, add our own process to the end of the wait queue to serve as a  
sentinel, and exit the broadcast loop once our process is not there  
anymore.  There are various special considerations described in the  
comments, the principal disadvantage being that wakers can no longer  
be sure whether they awakened a real waiter or just a sentinel.  But in  
practice nobody pays attention to the result of ConditionVariableSignal  
or ConditionVariableBroadcast anyway, so that problem seems hypothetical.

Logical decoding's reorderbuffer.c may spill transaction files to disk  
when transactions are large.  These are supposed to be removed when they  
become "too old" by xid; but file removal requires the boundary LSNs of  
the transaction to be known.  The final_lsn is only set when we see the  
commit or abort record for the transaction, but nothing sets the value  
for transactions that crash, so the removal code misbehaves -- in  
assertion-enabled builds, it crashes by a failed assertion.  
  
To fix, modify the final_lsn of transactions that don't have a value  
set, to the LSN of the very latest change in the transaction.  This  
causes the spilled files to be removed appropriately.

Make XactLockTableWait work for transactions that are not yet self-locked

XactLockTableWait assumed that its xid argument has already added itself  
to the lock table.  That assumption led to another assumption that if  
locking the xid has succeeded but the xid is reported as still in  
progress, then the input xid must have been a subtransaction.  
  
These assumptions hold true for the original uses of this code in  
locking related to on-disk tuples, but they break down in logical  
replication slot snapshot building -- in particular, when a standby  
snapshot logged contains an xid that's already in ProcArray but not yet  
in the lock table.  This leads to assertion failures that can be  
reproduced all the way back to 9.4, when logical decoding was  
introduced.  
  
To fix, change SubTransGetParent to SubTransGetTopmostTransaction which  
has a slightly different API: it returns the argument Xid if there is no  
parent, and it goes all the way to the top instead of moving up the  
levels one by one.  Also, to avoid busy-waiting, add a 1ms sleep to give  
the other process time to register itself in the lock table.  
  
For consistency, change ConditionalXactLockTableWait the same way.

Multiple sessions doing CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY simultaneously are  
supposed to be able to work in parallel, as evidenced by fixes in commit  
c3d09b3bd23f specifically to support this case.  In reality, one of the  
sessions would be aborted by a misterious "deadlock detected" error.  
  
Jeff Janes diagnosed that this is because of leftover snapshots used for  
system catalog scans -- this was broken by 8aa3e47510b9 keeping track of  
(registering) the catalog snapshot.  To fix the deadlocks, it's enough  
to de-register that snapshot prior to waiting.  
  
Backpatch to 9.4, which introduced MVCC catalog scans.  
  
Include an isolationtester spec that 8 out of 10 times reproduces the  
deadlock with the unpatched code for me (Álvaro).

When walsenders were included in pg_stat_activity, only the ones  
actually streaming WAL were listed as active when they were active. In  
particular, the connections sending base backups were listed as being  
idle. Which means that a regular pg_basebackup would show up with one  
active and one idle connection, when both were active.  
  
This patch updates to set all walsenders to active when they are  
(including those doing very fast things like IDENTIFY_SYSTEM), and then  
back to idle. Details about exactly what they are doing is available in

incorrect value could be a reason of significantly growing of index. Vacuum

Since 9.4, we've allowed the syntax "select union select" and variants  
of that.  However, the planner wasn't expecting a no-column set operation  
and ended up treating the set operation as if it were UNION ALL.  
  
Turns out it's trivial to fix in v10 and later; we just need to be careful  
about not generating a Sort node with no sort keys.  However, since a weird  
corner case like this is never going to be exercised by developers, we'd  
better have thorough regression tests if we want to consider it supported.

Generally, error recovery paths that need to do things like  
LWLockReleaseAll and pgstat_report_wait_end also need to call  
ConditionVariableCancelSleep, but AbortSubTransaction was missed.  
  
Since subtransaction abort might destroy up the DSM segment that  
contains the ConditionVariable stored in cv_sleep_target, this  
can result in a crash for anything using condition variables.

Fix bug in cancellation of non-exclusive backup to avoid assertion failure.

Previously an assertion failure occurred when pg_stop_backup() for  
non-exclusive backup was aborted while it's waiting for WAL files to  
be archived. This assertion failure happened in do_pg_abort_backup()  
which was called when a non-exclusive backup was canceled.  
do_pg_abort_backup() assumes that there is at least one non-exclusive  
backup running when it's called. But pg_stop_backup() can be canceled  
even after it marks the end of non-exclusive backup (e.g.,  
during waiting for WAL archiving). This broke the assumption that  
do_pg_abort_backup() relies on, and which caused an assertion failure.  
  
This commit changes do_pg_abort_backup() so that it does nothing  
when non-exclusive backup has been already marked as completed.  
That is, the asssumption is also changed, and do_pg_abort_backup()  
now can handle even the case where it's called when there is  
no running backup.  
  
Backpatch to 9.6 where SQL-callable non-exclusive backup was added.

es_query_dsa turns out to be broken by design, because it supposes  
that there is only one DSA for the whole query, whereas there is  
actually one per Gather (Merge) node.  For now, work around that  
problem by setting and clearing the pointer around the sections of  
code that might need it.  It's probably a better idea to get rid of  
es_query_dsa altogether in favor of having each node keep track  
individually of which DSA is relevant, but that seems like more than  
we would want to back-patch.

The previous commit has shown that the sanity checks around freezing  
aren't strong enough. Strengthening them seems especially important  
because the existance of the bug has caused corruption that we don't  
want to make even worse during future vacuum cycles.  
  
The errors are emitted with ereport rather than elog, despite being  
"should never happen" messages, so a proper error code is emitted. To  
avoid superflous translations, mark messages as internal.

Previously it was possible that a tuple was not pruned during vacuum,  
even though its update xmax (i.e. the updating xid in a multixact with  
both key share lockers and an updater) was below the cutoff horizon.  
  
As the freezing code assumed, rightly so, that that's not supposed to  
happen, xmax would be preserved (as a member of a new multixact or  
xmax directly). That causes two problems: For one the tuple is below  
the xmin horizon, which can cause problems if the clog is truncated or  
once there's an xid wraparound. The bigger problem is that that will  
break HOT chains, which in turn can lead two to breakages: First,  
failing index lookups, which in turn can e.g lead to constraints being  
violated. Second, future hot prunes / vacuums can end up making  
invisible tuples visible again. There's other harmful scenarios.  
  
Fix the problem by recognizing that tuples can be DEAD instead of  
RECENTLY_DEAD, even if the multixactid has alive members, if the  
update_xid is below the xmin horizon. That's safe because newer  
versions of the tuple will contain the locking xids.  
  
A followup commit will harden the code somewhat against future similar  
bugs and already corrupted data.

The logical slots have a fast code path for sending data so as not to  
impose too high a per message overhead. The fast path skips checks for  
interrupts and timeouts. However, the existing coding failed to consider  
the fact that a transaction with a large number of changes may take a  
very long time to be processed and sent to the client. This causes the  
walsender to ignore interrupts for potentially a long time and more  
importantly it will result in the walsender being killed due to  
timeout at the end of such a transaction.  
  
This commit changes the fast path to also check for interrupts and only  
allows calling the fast path when the last keepalive check happened less  
than half the walsender timeout ago. Otherwise the slower code path will  
be taken.

I noticed that _SPI_execute_plan initially sets spierrcontext.arg = NULL,  
and only fills it in some time later.  If an error were to happen in  
between, _SPI_error_callback would try to dereference the null pointer.  
This is unlikely --- there's not much between those points except  
push-snapshot calls --- but it's clearly not impossible.  Tweak the  
callback to do nothing if the pointer isn't set yet.  
  
It's been like this for awhile, so back-patch to all supported branches.

MSVC 2012+: Permit linking to 32-bit, MinGW-built libraries.

Notably, this permits linking to the 32-bit Perl binaries advertised on  
perl.org, namely Strawberry Perl and ActivePerl.  This has a side effect  
of permitting linking to binaries built with obsolete MSVC versions.  
  
By default, MSVC 2012 and later require a "safe exception handler table"  
in each binary.  MinGW-built, 32-bit DLLs lack the relevant exception  
handler metadata, so linking to them failed with error LNK2026.  Restore  
the semantics of MSVC 2010, which omits the table from a given binary if  
some linker input lacks metadata.  This has no effect on 64-bit builds  
or on MSVC 2010 and earlier.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported  
versions).

MSVC-built, 32-bit Perl, but they broke use of MinGW-built, 32-bit Perl  
distributions like Strawberry Perl and modern ActivePerl.  Perl has no  
robust means to report whether it expects a -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T ABI, so  
test this.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).  
  
The chief alternative was a heuristic of adding -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T when  
$Config{gccversion} is nonempty.  That banks on every gcc-built Perl  
using the same ABI.  gcc could change its default ABI the way MSVC once  
did, and one could build Perl with gcc and the non-default ABI.  
  
The GNU make build system could benefit from a similar test, without  
which it does not support MSVC-built Perl.  For now, just add a comment.  
Most users taking the special step of building Perl with MSVC probably  
build PostgreSQL with MSVC.

Add support to the SCRAM exchange for clients that support channel  
binding, such as PostgreSQL version 11 and beyond.  If such a client  
encounters a PostgreSQL 10 server that does not support channel binding,  
it will send a channel binding flag 'y', meaning the client supports  
channel binding but thinks the server does not.  But PostgreSQL 10  
erroneously did not accept that flag.  This would cause connections to  
fail if a version 11 client connects to a version 10 server with SCRAM  
authentication over SSL.

When a worker is flagged as BGW_NEVER_RESTART and we fail to start it,  
or if it is not marked BGW_NEVER_RESTART but is terminated before  
startup succeeds, what BgwHandleStatus should be reported?  The  
previous code really hadn't considered this possibility (as indicated  
by the comments which ignore it completely) and would typically return  
BGWH_NOT_YET_STARTED, but that's not a good answer, because then  
there's no way for code using GetBackgroundWorkerPid() to tell the  
difference between a worker that has not started but will start  
later and a worker that has not started and will never be started.  
So, when this case happens, return BGWH_STOPPED instead.  Update the  
comments to reflect this.  
  
The preceding fix by itself is insufficient to fix the problem,  
because the old code also didn't send a notification to the process  
identified in bgw_notify_pid when startup failed.  That might've  
been technically correct under the theory that the status of the  
worker was BGWH_NOT_YET_STARTED, because the status would indeed not  
change when the worker failed to start, but now that we're more  
usefully reporting BGWH_STOPPED, a notification is needed.  
  
Without these fixes, code which starts background workers and then  
uses the recommended APIs to wait for those background workers to  
start would hang indefinitely if the postmaster failed to fork a  
worker.

When a Gather or Gather Merge node is started and stopped multiple  
times, the old code wouldn't reset the shared state between executions,  
potentially resulting in dramatically inflated instrumentation data  
for nodes beneath it.  (The per-worker instrumentation ended up OK,  
I think, but the overall totals were inflated.)

This patch fixes a couple of low-probability bugs that could lead to  
reporting an irrelevant errno value (and hence possibly a wrong SQLSTATE)  
concerning directory-open or file-open failures.  It also fixes places  
where we took shortcuts in reporting such errors, either by using elog  
instead of ereport or by using ereport but forgetting to specify an  
errcode.  And it eliminates a lot of just plain redundant error-handling  
code.  
  
In service of all this, export fd.c's formerly-static function  
ReadDirExtended, so that external callers can make use of the coding  
pattern  
  
	dir = AllocateDir(path);  
	while ((de = ReadDirExtended(dir, path, LOG)) != NULL)  
  
if they'd like to treat directory-open failures as mere LOG conditions  
rather than errors.  Also fix FreeDir to be a no-op if we reach it  
with dir == NULL, as such a coding pattern would cause.  
  
Then, remove code at many call sites that was throwing an error or log  
message for AllocateDir failure, as ReadDir or ReadDirExtended can handle  
that job just fine.  Aside from being a net code savings, this gets rid of  
a lot of not-quite-up-to-snuff reports, as mentioned above.  (In some  
places these changes result in replacing a custom error message such as  
"could not open tablespace directory" with more generic wording "could not  
open directory", but it was agreed that the custom wording buys little as  
long as we report the directory name.)  In some other call sites where we  
can't just remove code, change the error reports to be fully  
project-style-compliant.  
  
Also reorder code in restoreTwoPhaseData that was acquiring a lock  
between AllocateDir and ReadDir; in the unlikely but surely not  
impossible case that LWLockAcquire changes errno, AllocateDir failures  
would be misreported.  There is no great value in opening the directory  
before acquiring TwoPhaseStateLock, so just do it in the other order.  
  
Also fix CheckXLogRemoved to guarantee that it preserves errno,  
as quite a number of call sites are implicitly assuming.  (Again,  
it's unlikely but I think not impossible that errno could change  
during a SpinLockAcquire.  If so, this function was broken for its  
own purposes as well as breaking callers.)  
  
And change a few places that were using not-per-project-style messages,  
such as "could not read directory" when "could not open directory" is  
more correct.  
  
Back-patch the exporting of ReadDirExtended, in case we have occasion  
to back-patch some fix that makes use of it; it's not needed right now  
but surely making it global is pretty harmless.  Also back-patch the  
restoreTwoPhaseData and CheckXLogRemoved fixes.  The rest of this is  
essentially cosmetic and need not get back-patched.

There's no good reason that the multicolumn stats stuff shouldn't work on  
booleans.  But it looked only for "Var = pseudoconstant" clauses, and it  
will seldom find those for boolean Vars, since earlier phases of planning  
will fold "boolvar = true" or "boolvar = false" to just "boolvar" or  
"NOT boolvar" respectively.  Improve dependencies_clauselist_selectivity()  
to recognize such clauses as equivalent to equality restrictions.  
  
This fixes a failure of the extended stats mechanism to apply in a case  
reported by Vitaliy Garnashevich.  It's not a complete solution to his  
problem because the bitmap-scan costing code isn't consulting extended  
stats where it should, but that's surely an independent issue.  
  
In passing, improve some comments, get rid of a NumRelids() test that's  
redundant with the preceding bms_membership() test, and fix  
dependencies_clauselist_selectivity() so that estimatedclauses actually  
is a pure output argument as stated by its API contract.

Commit d4663350646ca0c069a36d906155a0f7e3372eb7 changed things so  
that shm_toc_lookup would fail with an error rather than silently  
returning NULL in the hope that such failures would be reported  
in a useful way rather than via a system crash.  However, it  
overlooked the fact that the lookup of PARALLEL_KEY_ERROR_QUEUE  
in ReinitializeParallelDSM is expected to fail when no DSM segment  
was created in the first place; in that case, we end up with a  
backend-private memory segment that still contains an entry for  
PARALLEL_KEY_FIXED but no others.  Consequently a benign failure  
to initialize parallelism can escalate into an elog(ERROR);  
repair.

If we have a plan that uses parallelism but are unable to execute it  
using parallelism, for example due to a lack of available DSM  
segments, then the EState's es_query_dsa will be NULL.  Parallel  
bitmap heap scan needs to fall back to a non-parallel scan in such  
cases.

heap_drop_with_catalog and ATExecDetachPartition neglected to check for  
SearchSysCache failures, as noted in bugs #14927 and #14928 from Pan Bian.  
Such failures are pretty unlikely, since we should already have some sort  
of lock on the rel at these points, but it's neither a good idea nor  
per project style to omit a check for failure.  
  
Also, StorePartitionKey contained a syscache lookup that it never did  
anything with, including never releasing the result.  Presumably the  
reason why we don't see refcount-leak complaints is that the lookup  
always fails; but in any case it's pretty useless, so remove it.  
  
All of these errors were evidently introduced by the relation  
partitioning feature.  Back-patch to v10 where that came in.

rewriteTargetListUD's processing is dependent on the relkind of the query's  
target table.  That was fine at the time it was made to act that way, even  
for queries on inheritance trees, because all tables in an inheritance tree  
would necessarily be plain tables.  However, the 9.5 feature addition  
allowing some members of an inheritance tree to be foreign tables broke the  
assumption that rewriteTargetListUD's output tlist could be applied to all  
child tables with nothing more than column-number mapping.  This led to  
visible failures if foreign child tables had row-level triggers, and would  
also break in cases where child tables belonged to FDWs that used methods  
other than CTID for row identification.  
  
To fix, delay running rewriteTargetListUD until after the planner has  
expanded inheritance, so that it is applied separately to the (already  
mapped) tlist for each child table.  We can conveniently call it from  
preprocess_targetlist.  Refactor associated code slightly to avoid the  
need to heap_open the target relation multiple times during  
preprocess_targetlist.  (The APIs remain a bit ugly, particularly around  
the point of which steps scribble on parse->targetList and which don't.  
But avoiding such scribbling would require a change in FDW callback APIs,  
which is more pain than it's worth.)  
  
Also fix ExecModifyTable to ensure that "tupleid" is reset to NULL when  
we transition from rows providing a CTID to rows that don't.  (That's  
really an independent bug, but it manifests in much the same cases.)  
  
Add a regression test checking one manifestation of this problem, which  
was that row-level triggers on a foreign child table did not work right.  
  
Back-patch to 9.5 where the problem was introduced.

Originally, we palloc'd this buffer just barely big enough to hold the  
largest xlog record seen so far.  It turns out that that can result in  
valgrind complaints, because some compilers will emit code that assumes  
it can safely fetch padding bytes at the end of a struct, and those  
padding bytes were unallocated so far as aset.c was concerned.  We can  
fix that by MAXALIGN'ing the palloc request size, ensuring that it is big  
enough to include any possible padding that might've been omitted from  
the on-disk record.  
  
An additional objection to the original coding is that it could result in  
many repeated palloc cycles, in the worst case where we see a series of  
gradually larger xlog records.  We can ameliorate that cheaply by  
imposing a minimum buffer size that's large enough for most xlog records.  
BLCKSZ/2 was chosen after a bit of discussion.  
  
In passing, remove an obsolete comment in struct xl_heap_new_cid that the  
combocid field is free due to alignment considerations.  Perhaps that was  
true at some point, but it's not now.

Traditionally IANA has distributed their timezone data in pure source  
form, replete with extensive historical comments.  As of release 2017c,  
they've added a compact single-file format that omits comments and  
abbreviates command keywords.  This form is way shorter than the pure  
source, even before considering its allegedly better compressibility.  
Hence, let's distribute the data in that form rather than pure source.  
  
I'm pushing this now, rather than at the next timezone database update,  
so that it's easy to confirm that this data file produces compiled zic  
output that's identical to what we were getting before.

hstoreUniquePairs() often called memcpy with equal source and destination  
pointers.  Although this is almost surely harmless in practice, it's  
undefined according to the letter of the C standard.  Some versions of  
valgrind will complain about it, and some versions of libc as well  
(cf. commit ad520ec4a).  Tweak the code to avoid doing that.

When nodeValuesscan.c was written, it was impossible to have a SubPlan in  
VALUES --- any sub-SELECT there would have to be uncorrelated and thereby  
would produce an InitPlan instead.  We therefore took a shortcut in the  
logic that throws away a ValuesScan's per-row expression evaluation data  
structures.  This was broken by the introduction of LATERAL however; a  
sub-SELECT containing a lateral reference produces a correlated SubPlan.  
  
The cleanest fix for this would be to give up the optimization of  
discarding the expression eval state.  But that still seems pretty  
unappetizing for long VALUES lists.  It seems to work to just prevent  
the subexpressions from hooking into the ValuesScan node's subPlan  
list, so let's do that and see how well it works.  (If this breaks,  
due to additional connections between the subexpressions and the outer  
query structures, we might consider compromises like throwing away data  
only for VALUES rows not containing SubPlans.)  
  
Per bug #14924 from Christian Duta.  Back-patch to 9.3 where LATERAL  
was introduced.

Improve query_is_distinct_for() to accept SRFs in the targetlist when  
we can prove distinctness from a DISTINCT clause.  In that case the  
de-duplication will surely happen after SRF expansion, so the proof  
still works.  Continue to punt in the case where we'd try to prove  
distinctness from GROUP BY (or, in the future, source relations).  
To do that, we'd have to determine whether the SRFs were in the  
grouping columns or elsewhere in the tlist, and it still doesn't  
seem worth the trouble.  But this trivial change allows us to  
recognize that "SELECT DISTINCT unnest(foo) FROM ..." produces  
unique-ified output, which seems worth having.  
  
Also, fix estimate_num_groups() to consider the possibility of SRFs in  
the grouping columns.  Its failure to do so was masked before v10 because  
grouping_planner() scaled up plan rowcount estimates by the estimated SRF  
multiplier after performing grouping.  That doesn't happen anymore, which  
is more correct, but it means we need an adjustment in the estimate for  
the number of groups.  Failure to do this leads to an underestimate for  
the number of output rows of subqueries like "SELECT DISTINCT unnest(foo)"  
compared to what 9.6 and earlier estimated, thus breaking plan choices  
in some cases.  
  
Per report from Dmitry Shalashov.  Back-patch to v10 to avoid degraded  
plan choices compared to previous releases.

When strict aggregate combine functions, used in multi-stage/parallel  
aggregation, returned NULL, we didn't check for that, invoking the  
combine function with NULL the next round, despite it being strict.  
  
The equivalent code invoking normal transition functions has a check  
for that situation, which did not get copied in a7de3dc5c346. Fix the  
bug by adding the equivalent check.  
  
Based on a quick look I could not find any strict combine functions in  
core actually returning NULL, and it doesn't seem very likely external  
users have done so. So this isn't likely to have caused issues in  
practice.  
  
Add tests verifying transition / combine functions returning NULL is  
tested.

Previously, any attempt to request a 3.x protocol version other than  
3.0 would lead to a hard connection failure, which made the minor  
protocol version really no different from the major protocol version  
and precluded gentle protocol version breaks.  Instead, when the  
client requests a 3.x protocol version where x is greater than 0, send  
the new NegotiateProtocolVersion message to convey that we support  
only 3.0.  This makes it possible to introduce new minor protocol  
versions without requiring a connection retry when the server is  
older.  
  
In addition, if the startup packet includes name/value pairs where  
the name starts with "_pq_.", assume that those are protocol options,  
not GUCs.  Include those we don't support (i.e. all of them, at  
present) in the NegotiateProtocolVersion message so that the client  
knows they were not understood.  This makes it possible for the  
client to request previously-unsupported features without bumping  
the protocol version at all; the client can tell from the server's  
response whether the option was understood.  
  
It will take some time before servers that support these new  
facilities become common in the wild; to speed things up and make  
things easier for a future 3.1 protocol version, back-patch to all  
supported releases.

The pending list must (for correctness) always be cleaned up by vacuum, and  
should (for the avoidance of surprising behavior) always be cleaned up  
by an explicit call to gin_clean_pending_list, but cleanup is optional  
when inserting.  The old logic got this backward: cleanup was forced  
if (stats == NULL), but that's going to be *false* when vacuuming and  
*true* for inserts.

Prevent int128 from requiring more than MAXALIGN alignment.

Our initial work with int128 neglected alignment considerations, an  
oversight that came back to bite us in bug #14897 from Vincent Lachenal.  
It is unsurprising that int128 might have a 16-byte alignment requirement;  
what's slightly more surprising is that even notoriously lax Intel chips  
sometimes enforce that.  
  
Raising MAXALIGN seems out of the question: the costs in wasted disk and  
memory space would be significant, and there would also be an on-disk  
compatibility break.  Nor does it seem very practical to try to allow some  
data structures to have more-than-MAXALIGN alignment requirement, as we'd  
have to push knowledge of that throughout various code that copies data  
structures around.  
  
The only way out of the box is to make type int128 conform to the system's  
alignment assumptions.  Fortunately, gcc supports that via its  
__attribute__(aligned()) pragma; and since we don't currently support  
int128 on non-gcc-workalike compilers, we shouldn't be losing any platform  
support this way.  
  
Although we could have just done pg_attribute_aligned(MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF) and  
called it a day, I did a little bit of extra work to make the code more  
portable than that: it will also support int128 on compilers without  
__attribute__(aligned()), if the native alignment of their 128-bit-int  
type is no more than that of int64.  
  
Add a regression test case that exercises the one known instance of the  
problem, in parallel aggregation over a bigint column.  
  
Back-patch of commit 751804998.  The code known to be affected only exists  
in 9.6 and later, but we do have some stuff using int128 in 9.5, so patch  
back to 9.5.

Generalize section 1 to handle stuff that is principally about the  
compiler (not libraries), such as attributes, and collect stuff there  
that had been dropped into various other parts of c.h.  Also, push  
all the gettext macros into section 8, so that section 0 is really  
just inclusions rather than inclusions and random other stuff.  
  
The primary goal here is to get pg_attribute_aligned() defined before  
section 3, so that we can use it with int128.  But this seems like good  
cleanup anyway.  
  
This patch just moves macro definitions around, and shouldn't result  
in any changes in generated code.

Apart from calling write_stderr() on failure, the handler depends on no

This suite had been a proper superset of the regular ecpg test suite,  
but the three newest tests didn't reach it.  To make this less likely to  
recur, delete the extra schedule file and pass the TCP-specific test on  
the command line.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).

Since commit 868898739a8da9ab74c105b8349b7b5c711f265a, it has assumed  
"localhost" resolves to both ::1 and 127.0.0.1.  We gain nothing from  
that assumption, and it does not hold in a default installation of Red  
Hat Enterprise Linux 5.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).

When a value contained an XML declaration naming some other encoding,  
this function interpreted UTF8 bytes as the named encoding, yielding  
mojibake.  xml_parse() already has similar logic.  This would be  
necessary but not sufficient for non-UTF8 databases, so preserve  
behavior there until the xpath facility can support such databases  
comprehensively.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).

An LDAP URL without a host name such as "ldap://" or without a base DN  
such as "ldap://localhost" would cause a crash when reading pg_hba.conf.  
  
If no binddn is configured, an error message might end up trying to print a  
null pointer, which could crash on some platforms.

Make bloom WAL test compare psql output text, not just result codes;  
this was evidently the intent all along, but it was mis-coded.  
In passing, make sure we will notice any failure in setup steps.

Somebody messed up a refactoring here.  As it stood, we'd check pg_ctl's  
--version output twice for each cluster.  Worse, the first check for the  
new cluster's version happened before we'd done any validate_exec checks  
there, breaking the check ordering the code intended.

Upon further review, our Bonjour code doesn't actually work with the  
Avahi not-too-compatible compatibility library.  While you can get it  
to work on non-macOS platforms if you link to Apple's own mDNSResponder  
code, there don't seem to be many people who care about that.  Leaving in  
the AC_SEARCH_LIBS call seems more likely to encourage people to build  
broken configurations than to do anything very useful.  
  
Hence, remove the AC_SEARCH_LIBS call and put in a warning comment instead.

The point of having separate ResourceOwnerEnlargeFoo and  
ResourceOwnerRememberFoo functions is so that resource allocation  
can happen in between.  Doing it in some other order is just wrong.  
  
OpenTemporaryFile() did open(), enlarge, remember, which would leak the  
open file if the enlarge step ran out of memory.  Because fd.c has its own  
layer of resource-remembering, the consequences look like they'd be limited  
to an intratransaction FD leak, but it's still not good.  
  
IncrBufferRefCount() did enlarge, remember, incr-refcount, which would blow  
up if the incr-refcount step ever failed.  It was safe enough when written,  
but since the introduction of PrivateRefCountHash, I think the assumption  
that no error could happen there is pretty shaky.  
  
The odds of real problems from either bug are probably small, but still,  
back-patch to supported branches.
