When loading plperl built against Strawberry perl or the msys2 ucrt perl  
that have been built with gcc, a binary mismatch has been encountered  
which looks like this:  
  
loadable library and perl binaries are mismatched (got handshake key 0000000012800080, needed 0000000012900080)  
  
To cure this we bring the handshake keys into sync by adding  
NO_THREAD_SAFE_LOCALE to the defines used to build plperl.

Commit 9b4eafcaf4 added creattion of a directory to reserve TAP test  
ports at the top of the build tree. In a non-vpath build this means at  
the top of the source tree, so it needs to be added to .gitignore.

In commit 272248a0c, we introduced an InitialRunningXacts array to  
remember transactions and subtransactions that were running when the  
xl_running_xacts record that we decoded was written. This array was  
allocated in the snapshot builder memory context after we restore  
serialized snapshot but we forgot to reset the array while freeing the  
builder memory context. So, the next time when we start decoding in the  
same session where we don't restore any serialized snapshot, we ended up  
using the uninitialized array and that can lead to unpredictable behavior.  
  
This problem doesn't exist in HEAD as instead of using  
InitialRunningXacts, we added the list of transaction IDs and  
sub-transaction IDs, that have modified catalogs and are running during  
snapshot serialization, to the serialized snapshot (see commit 7f13ac8123).

We've made multiple attempts at preventing get_actual_variable_range  
from taking an unreasonable amount of time (3ca930fc3, fccebe421).  
But there's still an issue for the very first planning attempt after  
deletion of a large number of extremal-valued tuples.  While that  
planning attempt will set "killed" bits on the tuples it visits and  
thereby reduce effort for next time, there's still a lot of work it  
has to do to visit the heap and then set those bits.  It's (usually?)  
not worth it to do that much work at plan time to have a slightly  
better estimate, especially in a context like this where the table  
contents are known to be mutating rapidly.  
  
Therefore, let's bound the amount of work to be done by giving up  
after we've visited 100 heap pages.  Giving up just means we'll  
fall back on the extremal value recorded in pg_statistic, so it  
shouldn't mean that planner estimates suddenly become worthless.  
  
Note that this means we'll still gradually whittle down the problem  
by setting a few more index "killed" bits in each planning attempt;  
so eventually we'll reach a good state (barring further deletions),  
even in the absence of VACUUM.

Currently there is a race condition where if concurrent TAP tests both  
test that they can open a port they will assume that it is free and use  
it, causing one of them to fail. To prevent this we record a reservation  
using an exclusive lock, and any TAP test that discovers a reservation  
checks to see if the reserving process is still alive, and looks for  
another free port if it is.  
  
Ports are reserved in a directory set by the environment setting  
PG_TEST_PORT_DIR, or if that doesn't exist a subdirectory of the top  
build directory as set by Makefile.global, or its own  
tmp_check directory.  
  
The prove_check recipe in Makefile.global.in is extended to export  
top_builddir to the TAP tests. This was already exported by the  
prove_installcheck recipes.

Once a logical slot has acquired a catalog_xmin, it doesn't let go of  
it, even when invalidated by exceeding the max_slot_wal_keep_size, which  
means that dead catalog tuples are not removed by vacuum anymore since  
the point is invalidated, until the slot is dropped.  This could be  
catastrophic if catalog churn is high.  
  
Change the computation of Xmin to ignore invalidated slots,  
to prevent dead rows from accumulating.  
  
Backpatch to 13, where slot invalidation appeared.

I just spent an annoying amount of time reverse-engineering the  
100%-undocumented API between ts_headline and the text search  
parser's prsheadline function.  Add some commentary about that  
while it's fresh in mind.  Also remove some unused macros in  
wparser_def.c.  
  
While at it, I noticed that when commit 78e73e875 added a  
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS call in TS_execute_recurse, it missed  
doing so in the parallel function TS_phrase_execute, which  
surely needs one just as much.  
  
Back-patch because of the missing CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS.  
Might as well back-patch the rest of this too.

ProcSleep() used a PGPROC* variable to point to PROC_QUEUE->links.next,  
because that does "the right thing" with SHMQueueInsertBefore(). While that  
largely works, it's certainly not correct and unnecessary - we can just use  
SHM_QUEUE* to point to the insertion point.  
  
Noticed when testing a 32bit of postgres with undefined behavior  
sanitizer. UBSan noticed that sometimes the supposed PGPROC wasn't  
sufficiently aligned (required since 46d6e5f5679, ensured indirectly, via  
ShmemAllocRaw() guaranteeing cacheline alignment).  
  
For now fix this by using a SHM_QUEUE* for the insertion point. Subsequently  
we should replace all the use of PROC_QUEUE and SHM_QUEUE with ilist.h, but  
that's a larger change that we don't want to backpatch.  
  
Backpatch to all supported versions - it's useful to be able to run postgres  
under UBSan.

getPolicies() had the same disease I fixed in other places in  
commit e3fcbbd62, i.e., it was calling pg_get_expr() for  
expressions on tables that we don't necessarily have lock on.  
To fix, restrict the query to only collect interesting rows,  
rather than doing the filtering on the client side.

This is a back-patch of the v15-era commit f10f0ae42 into older  
supported branches.  The idea is to design out bugs in which an  
ill-timed relcache flush clears rel->rd_smgr partway through  
some code sequence that wasn't expecting that.  We had another  
report today of a corner case that reliably crashes v14 under  
debug_discard_caches (nee CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS), and therefore  
would crash once in a blue moon in the field.  We're unlikely  
to get rid of all such code paths unless we adopt the more  
rigorous coding rules instituted by f10f0ae42.  Therefore,  
even though this is a bit invasive, it's time to back-patch.  
Some comfort can be taken in the fact that f10f0ae42 has been  
in v15 for 16 months without problems.  
  
I left the RelationOpenSmgr macro present in the back branches,  
even though no core code should use it anymore, in order to not break  
third-party extensions in minor releases.  Such extensions might opt  
to start using RelationGetSmgr instead, to reduce their code  
differential between v15 and earlier branches.  This carries a hazard  
of failing to compile against headers from existing minor releases.  
However, once compiled the extension should work fine even with such  
releases, because RelationGetSmgr is a "static inline" function so  
it creates no link-time dependency.  So depending on distribution  
practices, that might be an OK tradeoff.

During XLOG_HASH_SPLIT_ALLOCATE_PAGE replay, we were checking for a  
cleanup lock on the new bucket page after acquiring an exclusive lock on  
it and raising a PANIC error on failure. However, it is quite possible  
that checkpointer can acquire the pin on the same page before acquiring a  
lock on it, and then the replay will lead to an error. So instead, directly  
acquire the cleanup lock on the new bucket page during  
XLOG_HASH_SPLIT_ALLOCATE_PAGE replay operation.

The original report was concerned with a possible inconsistency  
between the heap and the visibility map, which I was unable to  
confirm. The concern has been retracted.  
  
However, there did seem to be a torn page hazard when using  
checksums. By not setting the heap page LSN during redo, the  
protections of minRecoveryPoint were bypassed. Fixed, along with a  
misleading comment.  
  
It may have been impossible to hit this problem in practice, because  
it would require a page tear between the checksum and the flags, so I  
am marking this as a theoretical risk. But, as discussed, it did  
violate expectations about the page LSN, so it may have other  
consequences.  
  
Backpatch to all supported versions.

The stanza "SET STORAGE may need to add a TOAST table" does not  
test what it's supposed to, and hasn't done so since we added  
the ability to store constant column default values as metadata.  
We need to use a non-constant default to get the expected table  
rewrite to actually happen.  
  
Fix that, and add the missing checks that would have exposed the  
problem to begin with.  
  
Noted while reviewing a patch that made changes in this test case.  
Back-patch to v11 where the problem came in.

In commit 450ee7012 I supposed that all platforms we now care about have  
snprintf(), since that's required by C99.  Turns out that Microsoft did  
not get around to adding that until VS2015.  We've dropped support for  
VS2013 as of HEAD (cf 6203583b7), but not in the back branches, so add  
a hack for this in the back branches only.  
  
There's no easy shortcut to an exact emulation of standard snprintf  
in VS2013, but fortunately we don't need one: this code was just fine  
with using sprintf before 450ee7012, so we can make it do so again  
on that platform (and any others where the problem might crop up).  
  
Per bug #17681 from Daisuke Higuchi.  Back-patch to v12, like the  
previous patch.

Add a little to the header comments for these functions to make it  
clearer what guarantees about commit behavior are provided to callers.  
(See commit f92944137 for context.)  
  
Although this is only a comment change, it's really documentation  
aimed at authors of extensions, so it seems appropriate to back-patch.

Upstream SELinux has recently marked security_context_t as officially  
deprecated, causing warnings with -Wdeprecated-declarations.  This is  
considered as legacy code for some time now by upstream as  
security_context_t got removed from most of the code tree during the  
development of 2.3 back in 2014.  
  
This removes all the references to security_context_t in sepgsql/ to be  
consistent with SELinux, fixing the warnings.  Note that this does not  
impact the minimum version of libselinux supported.  
  
This has been applied first as 1f32136 for 14~, but no other branches  
got the call.  This is in line with the recent project policy to have no  
warnings in branches where builds should still be supported (9.2~ as of  
today).  Per discussion with Tom Lane and Álvaro Herrera.

Commit fede15417 introduced FILTER by jamming it into the existing  
example introducing HAVING, which seems pedagogically poor to me;  
and it added no information about what the keyword actually does.  
Not to mention that the claimed output didn't match the sample  
data being used in this running example.  
  
Revert that and instead make an independent example using FILTER.  
To help drive home the point that it's a per-aggregate filter,  
we need to use two aggregates not just one; for consistency  
expand all the examples in this segment to do that.  
  
Also adjust the example using WHERE ... LIKE so that it'd produce  
nonempty output with this sample data, and show that output.  
  
Back-patch, as the previous patch was.  (Sadly, v10 is now out  
of scope.)

"Triggers on partitioned tables cannot have transition tables." is

Commit f56f8f8da6af added some code in CloneFkReferencing that's way too  
lax about a Constraint node it manufactures, not initializing enough  
struct members -- initially_valid in particular was forgotten.  This  
causes some FKs in partitions added by ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION to  
be marked as not validated.  Set initially_valid true, which fixes the  
bug.  
  
While at it, make the struct initialization more complete.  Very similar  
code was added in two other places by the same commit; make them all  
follow the same pattern for consistency, though no bugs are apparent  
there.  
  
This bug has never been reported: I only happened to notice while  
working on commit 614a406b4ff1.  The test case that was added there with  
the improper result is repaired.  
  
Backpatch to 12.

If a syntax error occurred in a SQL-language or PL/pgSQL-language  
CREATE FUNCTION or DO command executed in a logical replication worker,  
we'd suffer a null pointer dereference or assertion failure.  That  
seems like a rather contrived case, but nonetheless worth fixing.  
  
The cause is that function_parse_error_transpose assumes it must be  
executing within the context of a Portal, but logical/worker.c  
doesn't create a Portal since it's not running the standard executor.  
We can just back off the hard Assert check and make it fail gracefully  
if there's not an ActivePortal.  (I have a feeling that the aggressive  
check here was my fault originally, probably because I wasn't sure if  
the case would always hold and wanted to find out.  Well, now we know.)  
  
The hazard seems to exist in all branches that have logical replication,  
so back-patch to v10.

Casting the result of palloc etc. to the intended type is more per  
project style anyway.  
  
(The fact that cpluspluscheck doesn't notice these problems is  
because it doesn't expand any macros, which seems like a troubling  
shortcoming.  Don't have a good idea about improving that.)  
  
Back-patch to v13, which is as far as the patch applies cleanly;  
doesn't seem worth working harder.

If we have no special-case code in s_lock.h for the current platform,  
but the compiler has __sync_lock_test_and_set, use that instead of  
failing.  It's unlikely that anybody's __sync_lock_test_and_set  
would be so awful as to be worse than our semaphore-based fallback,  
but if it is, they can (continue to) use --disable-spinlocks.  
  
This allows removal of the RISC-V special case installed by commit  
c32fcac56, which generated exactly the same code but only on that  
platform.  Usefully, the RISC-V buildfarm animals should now test  
at least the int variant of this patch.  
  
I've manually tested both variants on ARM by dint of removing the  
ARM-specific stanza.  We don't want to drop that, because it already  
has some special knowledge and is likely to grow more over time.  
Likewise, this is not meant to preclude installing special cases  
for other arches if that proves worthwhile.  
  
Per discussion of a request to install the same code for loongarch64.  
Like the previous patch, we might as well back-patch to supported  
branches.

Since partitions can be foreign tables not only plain tables, but  
logical replication only supports plain tables, we'd better check the  
relkind of a partition after we find it.  (There was some discussion  
of checking this when adding a partitioned table to a subscription;  
but that would be inadequate since the troublesome partition could be  
added later.)  Without this, the situation leads to a segfault or  
assertion failure.  
  
In passing, add a separate variable for the target Relation of  
a cross-partition UPDATE; reusing partrel seemed mighty confusing  
and error-prone.  
  
Shi Yu and Tom Lane, per report from Ilya Gladyshev.  Back-patch  
to v13 where logical replication into partitioned tables became  
a thing.

DST law changes in Chile, Fiji, Iran, Jordan, Mexico, Palestine,  
and Syria.  Historical corrections for Chile, Crimea, Iran, and  
Mexico.  
  
Also, the Europe/Kiev zone has been renamed to Europe/Kyiv  
(retaining the old name as a link).  
  
The following zones have been merged into nearby, more-populous zones  
whose clocks have agreed since 1970: Antarctica/Vostok, Asia/Brunei,  
Asia/Kuala_Lumpur, Atlantic/Reykjavik, Europe/Amsterdam,  
Europe/Copenhagen, Europe/Luxembourg, Europe/Monaco, Europe/Oslo,  
Europe/Stockholm, Indian/Christmas, Indian/Cocos, Indian/Kerguelen,  
Indian/Mahe, Indian/Reunion, Pacific/Chuuk, Pacific/Funafuti,  
Pacific/Majuro, Pacific/Pohnpei, Pacific/Wake and Pacific/Wallis.  
(This indirectly affects zones that were already links to one of  
these: Arctic/Longyearbyen, Atlantic/Jan_Mayen, Iceland,  
Pacific/Ponape, Pacific/Truk, and Pacific/Yap.)  America/Nipigon,  
America/Rainy_River, America/Thunder_Bay, Europe/Uzhgorod, and  
Europe/Zaporozhye were also merged into nearby zones after discovering  
that their claimed post-1970 differences from those zones seem to have  
been errors.  
  
While the IANA crew have been working on merging zones that have no  
post-1970 differences for some time, this batch of changes affects  
some zones that are significantly more populous than those merged  
in the past, notably parts of Europe.  The loss of pre-1970 timezone  
history for those zones may be troublesome for applications  
expecting consistency of timestamptz display.  As an example, the  
stored value '1944-06-01 12:00 UTC' would previously display as  
'1944-06-01 13:00:00+01' if the Europe/Stockholm zone is selected,  
but now it will read out as '1944-06-01 14:00:00+02'.  
  
There exists a "packrat" option that will build the timezone data  
files with this old data preserved, but the problem is that it also  
resurrects a bunch of other, far less well-attested data; so much so  
that actually more zones' contents change from 2022a with that option  
than without it.  I have chosen not to do that here, for that reason  
and because it appears that no major OS distributions are using the  
"packrat" option, so that doing so would cause Postgres' behavior  
to diverge significantly depending on whether it was built with  
--with-system-tzdata.  However, for anyone for whom these changes pose  
significant problems, there is a solution: build a set of timezone  
files with the "packrat" option and use those with Postgres.

When executing a utility statement, we must fetch everything  
we need out of the PlannedStmt data structure before calling  
standard_ProcessUtility.  In certain cases (possibly only ROLLBACK  
in extended query protocol), that data structure will get freed  
during command execution.  The situation is probably often harmless  
in production builds, but in debug builds we intentionally overwrite  
the freed memory with garbage, leading to picking up garbage values  
of statement location and length, typically causing an assertion  
failure later in pg_stat_statements.  In non-debug builds, if  
something did go wrong it would likely lead to storing garbage  
for the query string.  
  
Report and fix by zhaoqigui (with cosmetic adjustments by me).  
It's an old problem, so back-patch to all supported versions.

Contrary to what is documented in src/backend/access/transam/README,  
ginHeapTupleFastInsert() had a few ordering issues with the way it does  
its WAL operations when inserting items in its fast path.  
  
First, when using a separate list, XLogBeginInsert() was being always  
called before START_CRIT_SECTION(), and in this case a second thing was  
wrong when merging lists, as an exclusive lock was taken on the tail  
page *before* calling XLogBeginInsert().  Finally, when inserting items  
into a tail page, the order of XLogBeginInsert() and  
START_CRIT_SECTION() was reversed.  This commit addresses all these  
issues by moving the calls of XLogBeginInsert() after all the pages  
logged are locked and pinned, within a critical section.  
  
This has been applied first only on HEAD as of 56b6625, but as per  
discussion with Tom Lane and Álvaro Herrera, a backpatch is preferred to  
keep all the branches consistent and to respect the transam's README  
where we can.

Specifically, when pg_basebackup is invoked with -Tx=y, don't error  
out if x could plausibly be an absolute path either on Windows or on  
non-Windows systems. We don't know whether the remote system is  
running the same OS as the local system, so it's not appropriate to  
assume that our local rule about absolute pathnames is the same as  
the rule on the remote system.

This problem has been introduced by commit 272248a0c1 where we started  
assigning the subtransactions to the top-level transaction when we mark  
both the top-level transaction and its subtransactions as containing  
catalog changes. After we assign subtransactions to the top-level  
transaction, we were not allowed to execute any invalidations associated  
with it when we decide to skip the transaction.  
  
The reason to assign the subtransactions to the top-level transaction was  
to avoid the assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder() as they have the  
same LSN when we sometimes start accumulating transaction changes for  
partial transactions after the restart. Now that with commit 64ff0fe4e8,  
we skip this assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we start  
decoding the contents of the transaction, so, there is no reason for such  
an assignment anymore.  
  
The assignment change was introduced in 15 and prior versions but this bug  
doesn't exist in branches prior to 14 since we don't add invalidation  
messages to subtransactions. We decided to backpatch through 11 for  
consistency but not for 10 since its final release is near.

When the logical decoding restarts from NEW_CID, since there is no  
association between the top transaction and its subtransaction, both are  
created as top transactions and have the same LSN. This caused the  
assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder().  
  
This patch skips the assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we  
start decoding the contents of the transaction, specifically  
start_decoding_at LSN in SnapBuild. This is okay because we don't  
guarantee to make the association between top transaction and  
subtransaction until we try to decode the actual contents of transaction.  
The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN should have  
been checked before the restart.  
  
The other assertion failure is due to the reason that we forgot to track  
that we have considered top-level transaction id in the list of catalog  
changing transactions that were committed when one of its subtransactions  
is marked as containing catalog change.

DefineQueryRewrite() has long required that ON SELECT rules be named  
"_RETURN".  But we overlooked the converse case: we should forbid  
non-ON-SELECT rules that are named "_RETURN".  In particular this  
prevents using CREATE OR REPLACE RULE to overwrite a view's _RETURN  
rule with some other kind of rule, thereby breaking the view.

The executor will dump core if it's asked to execute a seqscan on  
a relation having no table AM, such as a view.  While that shouldn't  
really happen, it's possible to get there via catalog corruption,  
such as a missing ON SELECT rule.  It seems worth installing a defense  
against that.  There are multiple plausible places for such a defense,  
but I picked the planner's get_relation_info().  
  
Per discussion of bug #17646 from Kui Liu.  Back-patch to v12 where  
the tableam APIs were introduced; in older versions you won't get a  
SIGSEGV, so it seems less pressing.

In the latest version of Apple's macOS SDK, <sys/socket.h>  
fails to compile if "REF" is #define'd as something.  
Apple may or may not agree that this is a bug, and even if  
they do accept the bug report I filed, they probably won't  
fix it very quickly.  In the meantime, our back branches will all  
fail to compile gram.y.  v15 and HEAD currently escape the problem  
thanks to the refactoring done in 98e93a1fc, but that's purely  
accidental.  Moreover, since that patch removed a widely-visible  
inclusion of <netdb.h>, back-patching it seems too likely to break  
third-party code.  
  
Instead, change the token's code name to REF_P, following our usual  
convention for naming parser tokens that are likely to have symbol  
conflicts.  The effects of that should be localized to the grammar  
and immediately surrounding files, so it seems like a safer answer.  
  
Per project policy that we want to keep recently-out-of-support  
branches buildable on modern systems, back-patch all the way to 9.2.

snprintf.c has always fallen back on libc's *printf implementation  
when printing pointers (%p) and floats.  When this code originated,  
we were still supporting some platforms that lacked native snprintf,  
so we used sprintf for that.  That's not actually unsafe in our usage,  
but nonetheless builds on macOS are starting to complain about sprintf  
being unconditionally deprecated; and I wouldn't be surprised if other  
platforms follow suit.  There seems little reason to believe that any  
platform supporting C99 wouldn't have standards-compliant snprintf,  
so let's just use that instead to suppress such warnings.  
  
Back-patch to v12, which is where we started to require C99.  It's  
also where we started to use our snprintf.c everywhere, so this  
wouldn't be enough to suppress the warning in older branches anyway  
--- that is, in older branches these aren't necessarily all our  
usages of libc's sprintf.  It is enough in v12+ because any  
deprecation annotation attached to libc's sprintf won't apply to  
pg_sprintf.  (Whether all our usages of pg_sprintf are adequately  
safe is not a matter I intend to address here, but perhaps it could  
do with some review.)  
  
Per report from Andres Freund and local testing.

Add

    Wants=network-online.target

This delays startup until the network interfaces have been  
configured; without that, any attempt to bind to a specific

If listen_addresses is set to "localhost" or "*", it might be  
possible to get away with the less restrictive "network.target",

The postmaster is not supposed to do anything that depends  
fundamentally on shared memory contents, because that creates  
the risk that a backend crash that trashes shared memory will  
take the postmaster down with it, preventing automatic recovery.  
In commit 969d7cd43 I lost sight of this principle and coded  
AssignPostmasterChildSlot() in such a way that it could fail  
or even crash if the shared PMSignalState structure became  
corrupted.  Remarkably, we've not seen field reports of such  
crashes; but I managed to induce one while testing the recent  
changes around palloc chunk headers.  
  
To fix, make a semi-duplicative state array inside the postmaster  
so that we need consult only local state while choosing a "child  
slot" for a new backend.  Ensure that other postmaster-executed  
routines in pmsignal.c don't have critical dependencies on the  
shared state, either.  Corruption of PMSignalState might now  
lead ReleasePostmasterChildSlot() to conclude that backend X  
failed, when actually backend Y was the one that trashed things.  
But that doesn't matter, because we'll force a cluster-wide reset  
regardless.

DEFAULT markers appearing in an INSERT on an updatable view  
could be mis-processed if they were in a multi-row VALUES clause.  
This would lead to strange errors such as "cache lookup failed  
for type NNNN", or in older branches even to crashes.  
  
The cause is that commit 41531e42d tried to re-use rewriteValuesRTE()  
to remove any SetToDefault nodes (that hadn't previously been replaced  
by the view's own default values) appearing in "product" queries,  
that is DO ALSO queries.  That's fundamentally wrong because the  
DO ALSO queries might not even be INSERTs; and even if they are,  
their targetlists don't necessarily match the view's column list,  
so that almost all the logic in rewriteValuesRTE() is inapplicable.  
  
What we want is a narrow focus on replacing any such nodes with NULL  
constants.  (That is, in this context we are interpreting the defaults  
as being strictly those of the view itself; and we already replaced  
any that aren't NULL.)  We could add still more !force_nulls tests  
to further lobotomize rewriteValuesRTE(); but it seems cleaner to  
split out this case to a new function, restoring rewriteValuesRTE()  
to the charter it had before.

There are a number of bugs in this area.  Two of them are fixed here,  
namely:  
1. get_relation_idx_constraint_oid does not restrict the type of  
   constraint that's returned, so with sufficient bad luck it can  
   return the OID of a foreign key constraint.  This has the effect that  
   a primary key in a partition can end up as a child of a foreign key,  
   which makes no sense (it needs to be the child of the equivalent  
   primary key.)  
   Change the API contract so that only index-backed constraints are  
   returned, mimicking get_constraint_index().  
  
2. Both CloneFkReferenced and CloneFkReferencing clone a  
   self-referencing foreign key, so the partition ends up with  
   a duplicate foreign key.  Change the former function to ignore such  
   constraints.  
  
Add some tests to verify that things are better now.  (However, these  
new tests show some additional misbehavior that will be fixed later --  
namely that there's a constraint marked NOT VALID.)  
  
Backpatch to 12, where these constraints are possible at all.

Commit 34f581c39 intended to ensure that RelationGetBufferForTuple  
would acquire a visibility-map page pin in case the otherBuffer's  
all-visible bit had become set since we last had lock on that page.  
But I missed a case: when we're extending the relation, VM concerns  
were dealt with only in the relatively-less-likely case that we  
fail to conditionally lock the otherBuffer.  I think I'd believed  
that we couldn't need to worry about it if the conditional lock  
succeeds, which is true for the target buffer; but the otherBuffer  
was unlocked for awhile so its bit might be set anyway.  So we need  
to do the GetVisibilityMapPins dance, and then also recheck the  
page's free space, in both cases.  
  
Per report from Jaime Casanova.  Back-patch to v12 as the previous  
patch was (although there's still no evidence that the bug is  
reachable pre-v14).

This prevents marking the argument string for translation for gettext,  
and it also prevents the given string (which is already translated) from  
being translated at runtime.  
  
Also, mark the strings used as arguments to check_rolespec_name for  
translation.  
  
Backpatch all the way back as appropriate.  None of this is caught by  
any tests (necessarily so), so I verified it manually.

Commit 25936fd46 adjusted things so that the "storeslot" we use  
for remapping trigger tuples would have adequate lifespan, but it  
neglected to consider the lifespan of the tuple descriptor that  
the slot depends on.  It turns out that in at least some cases, the  
tupdesc we are passing is a refcounted tupdesc, and the refcount for  
the slot's reference can get assigned to a resource owner having  
different lifespan than the slot does.  That leads to an error like  
"tupdesc reference 0x7fdef236a1b8 is not owned by resource owner  
SubTransaction".  Worse, because of a second oversight in the same  
commit, we'd try to free the same tupdesc refcount again while  
cleaning up after that error, leading to recursive errors and an  
"ERRORDATA_STACK_SIZE exceeded" PANIC.  
  
To fix the initial problem, let's just make a non-refcounted copy  
of the tupdesc we're supposed to use.  That seems likely to guard  
against additional problems, since there's no strong reason for  
this code to assume that what it's given is a refcounted tupdesc;  
in which case there's an independent hazard of the tupdesc having  
shorter lifespan than the slot does.  (I didn't bother trying to  
free said copy, since it should go away anyway when the (sub)  
transaction context is cleaned up.)  
  
The other issue can be fixed by making the code added to  
AfterTriggerFreeQuery work like the rest of that function, ie be  
sure that it doesn't try to free the same slot twice in the event  
of recursive error cleanup.  
  
While here, also clean up minor stylistic issues in the test case  
added by 25936fd46: don't use "create or replace function", as any  
name collision within the tests is likely to have ill effects  
that that won't mask; and don't use function names as generic as  
trigger_function1, especially if you're not going to drop them  
at the end of the test stanza.  
  
Per bug #17607 from Thomas Mc Kay.  Back-patch to v12, as the

Mop up assorted set-but-not-used warnings in the back branches.  
This includes back-patching relevant fixes from commit 152c9f7b8  
the rest of the way, but there are also several cases that did not  
appear in HEAD.  Some of those we'd fixed in a retail way but not  
back-patched, and others I think just got rewritten out of existence  
during nearby refactoring.  
  
While here, also back-patch b1980f6d0 (PL/Tcl: Fix compiler warnings  
with Tcl 8.6) into 9.2, so that that branch compiles warning-free  
with modern Tcl.  
  
Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into  
out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings  
but changes no behavior.  Hence, back-patch all the way to 9.2.

There doesn't seem to be any good ABI-preserving way to silence  
clang 15's -Wdeprecated-non-prototype warnings about our tree-walk  
APIs.  While we've fixed it properly in HEAD, the only way to not  
see hundreds of these in the back branches is to disable the  
warnings.  We're not going to do anything about them, so we might  
as well disable them.  
  
I noticed that we also get some of these warnings about fmgr.c's  
support for V0 function call convention, in branches before v10  
where we removed that.  That's another area we aren't going to  
change, so turning off the warning seems fine for that too.

clang 15+ will issue a set-but-not-used warning when the only  
use of a variable is in autoincrements (e.g., "foo++;").  
That's perfectly sensible, but it detects a few more cases that  
we'd not noticed before.  Silence the warnings with our usual  
methods, such as PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, or in one case by  
actually removing a useless variable.  
  
One thing that we can't nicely get rid of is that with %pure-parser,  
Bison emits "yynerrs" as a local variable that falls foul of this  
warning.  To silence those, I inserted "(void) yynerrs;" in the  
top-level productions of affected grammars.  
  
Per recently-established project policy, this is a candidate  
for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses  
annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior.  Hence,  
back-patch to 9.5, which is as far as these patches go without  
issues.  (A preliminary check shows that the prior branches  
need some other set-but-not-used cleanups too, so I'll leave  
them for another day.)

The API contract for planstate_tree_walker() callbacks is that they  
take a PlanState pointer and a context pointer.  Somebody figured  
they could save a couple lines of code by ignoring that, and passing  
ExecShutdownNode itself as the walker even though it has but one  
argument.  Somewhat remarkably, we've gotten away with that so far.  
However, it seems clear that the upcoming C2x standard means to  
forbid such cases, and compilers that actively break such code  
likely won't be far behind.  So spend the extra few lines of code  
to do it honestly with a separate walker function.  
  
In HEAD, we might as well go further and remove ExecShutdownNode's  
useless return value.  I left that as-is in back branches though,  
to forestall complaints about ABI breakage.  
  
Back-patch, with the thought that this might become of practical  
importance before our stable branches are all out of service.  
It doesn't seem to be fixing any live bug on any currently known  
platform, however.

Treat arguments declared as RECORD as if that were a polymorphic type  
(which it is, sort of), in that we substitute the actual argument type  
while forming the function cache lookup key.  This allows the specific  
composite type to be known in some cases where it was not before,  
at the cost of making a separate function cache entry for each named  
composite type that's passed to the function during a session.  The  
particular symptom discussed in bug #17610 could be solved in other  
more-efficient ways, but only at the cost of considerable development  
work, and there are other cases where we'd still fail without this.  
  
Per bug #17610 from Martin Jurča.  Back-patch to v11 where we first  
allowed plpgsql functions to be declared as taking type RECORD.

The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is  
adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot  
for the ForeignScan node.  But in the case where the outer plan contains  
an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for  
evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local  
conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error.  
  
The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the  
Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra  
columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them  
up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in  
the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan.  Repair.

This adds additional variants of palloc, pg_malloc, etc. that  
encapsulate common usage patterns and provide more type safety.  
  
Specifically, this adds palloc_object(), palloc_array(), and  
repalloc_array(), which take the type name of the object to be  
allocated as its first argument and cast the return as a pointer to  
that type.  There are also palloc0_object() and palloc0_array()  
variants for initializing with zero, and pg_malloc_*() variants of all  
of the above.  
  
Inspired by the talloc library.  
  
This is backpatched from master so that future backpatchable code can  
make use of these APIs.  This patch by itself does not contain any  
users of these APIs.

thus losing the storage attribute for the later variables.

When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects  
uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID.  FreeBSD still does so,  
but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4  
(random) UUID instead.  That's not acceptable for our purposes:  
if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1.  
Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'.  
  
Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation  
is usable.  It might be, depending on which OS version you're using,  
but we're not going to get into that kind of detail.  
  
(Maybe someday we should ditch all these external libraries  
and just write our own UUID code, but today is not that day.)

During ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION, if the name of a parent's foreign  
key constraint is already used on the partition, the code tries to  
choose another one before the FK attributes list has been populated,  
so the resulting constraint name was "<relname>__fkey" instead of  
"<relname>_<attrs>_fkey".  Repair, and add a test case.  
  
Backpatch to 12.  In 11, the code to attach a partition was not smart  
enough to cope with conflicting constraint names, so the problem doesn't  
exist there.

Some more things I didn't think about in commits 3f7323cbb et al:  
  
MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK subplans might have been converted to initplans  
instead of regular subplans, in which case they won't show up in  
the modified targetlist.  Fortunately, this would only happen if  
they have no input parameters, which means that the problem we  
originally needed to fix can't happen with them.  Therefore, there's  
no need to clone their output parameters, and thus it doesn't hurt  
that we'll fail to see them in the first pass over the targetlist.  
Nonetheless, this complicates matters greatly, because now we have  
to distinguish output Params of initplans (which shouldn't get  
renumbered) from those of regular subplans (which should).  
This also breaks the simplistic scheme I used of assuming that the  
subplans found in the targetlist have consecutive subLinkIds.  
We really can't avoid the need to know the subplans' subLinkIds in  
this code.  To fix that, add subLinkId as the last field of SubPlan.  
We can get away with that change in back branches because SubPlan  
nodes will never be stored in the catalogs, and there's no ABI  
break for external code that might be looking at the existing  
fields of SubPlan.  
  
Secondly, rewriteTargetListIU might have rolled up multiple  
FieldStores or SubscriptingRefs into one targetlist entry,  
breaking the assumption that there's at most one Param to fix  
per targetlist entry.  (That assumption is OK I think in the  
ruleutils.c code I stole the logic from in 18f51083c, because  
that only deals with pre-rewrite query trees.  But it's  
definitely not OK here.)  Abandon that shortcut and just do a  
full tree walk on the targetlist to ensure we find all the  
Params we have to change.  
  
Per bug #17606 from Andre Lin.  As before, only v10-v13 need the  
patch.

Postgres 14 commit 5b861baa taught nbtree VACUUM to tolerate buggy  
opclasses.  VACUUM's inability to locate a to-be-deleted page's downlink  
in the parent page was logged instead of throwing an error.  VACUUM  
could just press on with vacuuming the index, and vacuuming the table as  
a whole.  
  
There are now anecdotal reports of this error causing problems that were  
much more disruptive than the underlying index corruption ever could be.  
Anything that makes VACUUM unable to make forward progress against one  
table/index ultimately risks making the system enter xidStopLimit mode.  
There is no good reason to take any chances here, so backpatch the  
hardening commit.

Improve documentation regarding the limitations of unique and primary key  
constraints on partitioned tables.  The existing documentation didn't make  
it clear that the constraint columns had to be present in the partition  
key as bare columns.  The reader could be led to believe that it was ok to  
include the constraint columns as part of a function call's parameters or  
as part of an expression.  Additionally, the documentation didn't mention  
anything about the fact that we disallow unique and primary key  
constraints if the partition keys contain *any* function calls or  
expressions, regardless of if the constraint columns appear as columns  
elsewhere in the partition key.  
  
The confusion here was highlighted by a report on the general mailing list  
by James Vanns.

Commits 3f7323cbb et al missed the possibility that the Params  
they are looking for could be buried under implicit coercions,  
as well as other stuff that processIndirection() could add to  
the original targetlist entry.  Copy the code in ruleutils.c  
that deals with such cases.  (I thought about refactoring so  
that there's just one copy; but seeing that we only need this  
in old back branches, it seems not worth the trouble.)

Primarily, this fixes an incorrect calculation in SlabCheck which was  
looking in the wrong byte for the sentinel check.  The reason that we've  
never noticed this before in the form of a failing sentinel check is  
because the pre-check to this always fails because all current core users  
of slab contexts have a chunk size which is already MAXALIGNed, therefore  
there's never any space for the sentinel byte.  It is possible that an  
extension needs to use a slab context and if they do with a chunk size  
that's not MAXALIGNed, then they'll likely get errors about overwritten  
sentinel bytes.  
  
Additionally, this patch changes various calculations which are being done  
based on the sizeof(SlabBlock).  Currently, sizeof(SlabBlock) is a  
multiple of 8, therefore sizeof(SlabBlock) is the same as  
MAXALIGN(sizeof(SlabBlock)), however, if we were to ever have to add any  
fields to that struct as part of a bug fix, then SlabAlloc could end up  
returning a non-MAXALIGNed pointer.  To be safe, let's ensure we always  
MAXALIGN sizeof(SlabBlock) before using it in any calculations.  
  
This patch has already been applied to master in d5ee4db0e.

get_database_list() failed to restore the caller's memory context,  
instead leaving current context set to TopMemoryContext which is  
how CommitTransactionCommand() leaves it.  The callers both think  
they are using short-lived contexts, for the express purpose of  
not having to worry about cleaning up individual allocations.  
The net effect therefore is that supposedly short-lived allocations  
could accumulate indefinitely in the launcher's TopMemoryContext.  
  
Although this has been broken for a long time, it seems we didn't  
have any obvious memory leak here until v15's rearrangement of the  
stats logic.  I (tgl) am not entirely convinced that there's no  
other leak at all, though, and we're surely at risk of adding one  
in future back-patched fixes.  So back-patch to all supported  
branches, even though this may be only a latent bug in pre-v15.

If the input word exceeds 1000 bytes, don't pass it to the stemmer;  
just return it as-is after case folding.  Such an input is surely  
not a word in any human language, so whatever the stemmer might  
do to it would be pretty dubious in the first place.  Adding this  
restriction protects us against a known recursion-to-stack-overflow  
problem in the Turkish stemmer, and it seems like good insurance  
against any other safety or performance issues that may exist in  
the Snowball stemmers.  (I note, for example, that they contain no  
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS calls, so we really don't want them running  
for a long time.)  The threshold of 1000 bytes is arbitrary.  
  
An alternative definition could have been to treat such words as  
stopwords, but that seems like a bigger break from the old behavior.  
  
Per report from Egor Chindyaskin and Alexander Lakhin.  
Thanks to Olly Betts for the recommendation to fix it this way.

The default of lazy symbol resolution means that when the postmaster  
first reaches the select() call in ServerLoop, it'll need to resolve  
the link to that libc entry point.  NetBSD's dynamic loader takes  
an internal lock while doing that, and if a signal interrupts the  
operation then there is a risk of self-deadlock should the signal  
handler do anything that requires that lock, as several of the  
postmaster signal handlers do.  The window for this is pretty narrow,  
and timing considerations make it unlikely that a signal would arrive  
right then anyway.  But it's semi-repeatable on slow single-CPU  
machines, and in principle the race could happen with any hardware.  
  
The least messy solution to this is to force binding of dynamic  
symbols at postmaster start, using the "-z now" linker option.  
While we're at it, also use "-z relro" so as to provide a small  
security gain.  
  
It's not entirely clear whether any other platforms share this  
issue, but for now we'll assume it's NetBSD-specific.  (We might  
later try to use "-z now" on more platforms for performance  
reasons, but that would not likely be something to back-patch.)  
  
Report and patch by me; the idea to fix it this way is from  
Andres Freund.

When a PostgreSQL instance performing archive recovery but not using  
standby mode is promoted, and the last WAL segment that it attempted  
to read ended in a partial record, the previous code would create  
invalid WAL on the new timeline. The WAL from the previously timeline  
would be copied to the new timeline up until the end of the last valid  
record, but instead of beginning to write WAL at immediately  
afterwards, the promoted server would write an overwrite contrecord at  
the beginning of the next segment. The end of the previous segment  
would be left as all-zeroes, resulting in failures if anything tried  
to read WAL from that file.  
  
The root of the issue is that ReadRecord() decides whether to set  
abortedRecPtr and missingContrecPtr based on the value of StandbyMode,  
but ReadRecord() switches to a new timeline based on the value of  
ArchiveRecoveryRequested. We shouldn't try to write an overwrite  
contrecord if we're switching to a new timeline, so change the test in  
ReadRecod() to check ArchiveRecoveryRequested instead.

language from Álvaro Herrera. Further review from Kyotaro Horiguchi  
and Sami Imseih.

Prior to v14, if we have a MULTIEXPR SubPlan (that is, use of the syntax  
UPDATE ... SET (c1, ...) = (SELECT ...)) in an UPDATE with an inherited  
or partitioned target table, inheritance_planner() will clone the  
targetlist and therefore also the MULTIEXPR SubPlan and the Param nodes  
referencing it for each child target table.  Up to now, we've allowed  
all the clones to share the underlying subplan as well as the output  
parameter IDs -- that is, the runtime ParamExecData slots.  That  
technique is borrowed from the far older code that supports initplans,  
and it works okay in that case because the cloned SubPlan nodes are  
essentially identical.  So it doesn't matter which one of the clones  
the shared ParamExecData.execPlan field might point to.  
  
However, this fails to hold for MULTIEXPR SubPlans, because they can  
have nonempty "args" lists (values to be passed into the subplan), and  
those lists could get mutated to different states in the various clones.  
In the submitted reproducer, as well as the test case added here, one  
clone contains Vars with varno OUTER_VAR where another has INNER_VAR,  
because the child tables are respectively on the outer or inner side of  
the join.  Sharing the execPlan pointer can result in trying to evaluate  
an args list that doesn't match the local execution state, with mayhem  
ensuing.  The result often is to trigger consistency checks in the  
executor, but I believe this could end in a crash or incorrect updates.  
  
To fix, assign new Param IDs to each of the cloned SubPlans, so that  
they don't share ParamExecData slots at runtime.  It still seems fine  
for the clones to share the underlying subplan, and extra ParamExecData  
slots are cheap enough that this fix shouldn't cost much.  
  
This has been busted since we invented MULTIEXPR SubPlans in 9.5.  
Probably the lack of previous reports is because query plans in which  
the different clones of a MULTIEXPR mutate to effectively-different  
states are pretty rare.  There's no issue in v14 and later, because  
without inheritance_planner() there's never a reason to clone  
MULTIEXPR SubPlans.

SplitToVariants() in the ispell code, lseg_inside_poly() in geo_ops.c,  
and regex_selectivity_sub() in selectivity estimation could recurse  
until stack overflow; fix by adding check_stack_depth() calls.  
So could next() in the regex compiler, but that case is better fixed by  
converting its tail recursion to a loop.  (We probably get better code  
that way too, since next() can now be inlined into its sole caller.)  
  
There remains a reachable stack overrun in the Turkish stemmer, but  
we'll need some advice from the Snowball people about how to fix that.

On fast machines, it's possible for applications such as pgbench  
to issue connection requests so quickly that the postmaster's  
listen queue overflows in the kernel, resulting in unexpected  
failures (with not-very-helpful error messages).  Most modern OSes  
allow the queue size to be increased, so document how to do that.

When creating a partitioned index, DefineIndex tries to identify  
any existing indexes on the partitions that match the partitioned  
index, so that it can absorb those as child indexes instead of  
building new ones.  Part of the matching is to compare IndexInfo  
structs --- but that wasn't done quite right.  We're comparing  
the IndexInfo built within DefineIndex itself to one made from  
existing catalog contents by BuildIndexInfo.  Notably, while  
BuildIndexInfo will run index expressions and predicates through  
expression preprocessing, that has not happened to DefineIndex's  
struct.  The result is failure to match and subsequent creation  
of duplicate indexes.  
  
The easiest and most bulletproof fix is to build a new IndexInfo  
using BuildIndexInfo, thereby guaranteeing that the processing done  
is identical.  
  
While here, let's also extract the opfamily and collation data  
from the new partitioned index, removing ad-hoc logic that  
duplicated knowledge about how those are constructed.  
  
Per report from Christophe Pettus.  Back-patch to v11 where  
we invented partitioned indexes.

The current publisher code checks if UPDATE or DELETE can be executed with  
the replica identity of the table even if it's a partitioned table. We can  
skip checking the replica identity for partitioned tables because the  
operations are actually performed on the leaf partitions (not the  
partitioned table).

There's a convention that externally-visible libpq functions should  
check for a NULL PGconn pointer, and fail gracefully instead of  
crashing.  PQflush() and PQisnonblocking() didn't get that memo  
though.  Also add a similar check to PQdefaultSSLKeyPassHook_OpenSSL;  
while it's not clear that ordinary usage could reach that with a  
null conn pointer, it's cheap enough to check, so let's be consistent.

When enlarging the work buffers of a VarStringSortSupport object,  
varstrfastcmp_locale was careful to keep them in the ssup_cxt  
memory context; but varstr_abbrev_convert just used palloc().  
The latter creates a hazard that the buffers could be freed out  
from under the VarStringSortSupport object, resulting in stomping  
on whatever gets allocated in that memory later.  
  
In practice, because we only use this code for ICU collations  
(cf. 3df9c374e), the problem is confined to use of ICU collations.  
I believe it may have been unreachable before the introduction  
of incremental sort, too, as traditional sorting usually just  
uses one context for the duration of the sort.  
  
We could fix this by making the broken stanzas in varstr_abbrev_convert  
match the non-broken ones in varstrfastcmp_locale.  However, it seems  
like a better idea to dodge the issue altogether by replacing the  
pfree-and-allocate-anew coding with repalloc, which automatically  
preserves the chunk's memory context.  This fix does add a few cycles  
because repalloc will copy the chunk's content, which the existing  
coding assumes is useless.  However, we don't expect that these buffer  
enlargement operations are performance-critical.  Besides that, it's  
far from obvious that copying the buffer contents isn't required, since  
these stanzas make no effort to mark the buffers invalid by resetting  
last_returned, cache_blob, etc.  That seems to be safe upon examination,  
but it's fragile and could easily get broken in future, which wouldn't  
get revealed in testing with short-to-moderate-size strings.  
  
Per bug #17584 from James Inform.  Whether or not the issue is  
reachable in the older branches, this code has been broken on its  
own terms from its introduction, so patch all the way back.

It's possible to reach this case when work_mem is very small and tupsize  
is (relatively) very large.  In that case ExecChooseHashTableSize would  
get an assertion failure, or with asserts off it'd compute nbuckets = 0,  
which'd likely cause misbehavior later (I've not checked).  To fix,  
clamp the number of buckets to be at least 1.  
  
This is due to faulty conversion of old my_log2() coding in 28d936031.

Most parts of the parser can expect that the stack overflow check  
in transformExprRecurse() will trigger before things get desperate.  
However, transformFromClauseItem() can recurse directly to self  
without having analyzed any expressions, so it's possible to drive  
it to a stack-overrun crash.  Add a check to prevent that.

The set of fields printed by _outConstraint() in the CONSTR_IDENTITY  
case didn't match the set of fields actually used in that case.  (The  
code was probably uncarefully copied from the CONSTR_DEFAULT case.)  
Fix that by using the right set of fields.  Since there is no read  
support for this node type, this is really just for debugging output  
right now, so it doesn't affect anything important.

This was originally done in commit 0c20dd33db for 16 only, to eliminate  
duplicate code and as an infrastructure that makes it easier to write  
future tests. However, it has been suggested that it would be good to  
back-patch this testing infrastructure to aid future tests in  
back-branches.  
  
Backpatch to all supported versions.

Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION  
records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that  
information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart,  
if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction  
that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the  
snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong  
snapshot.  
  
To fix this problem, this changes the snapshot builder so that it  
remembers the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record  
after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the  
transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial  
running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. To  
avoid ABI breakage, we store the array of the initial running transactions  
in the static variables InitialRunningXacts and NInitialRunningXacts,  
instead of storing those in SnapBuild or ReorderBuffer.  
  
This approach has a false positive; we could end up adding the transaction  
that didn't change catalog to the snapshot since we cannot distinguish  
whether the transaction has catalog changes only by checking the COMMIT  
record. It doesn't have the information on which (sub) transaction has  
catalog changes, and XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS doesn't necessarily indicate  
that the transaction has catalog change. But that won't be a problem since  
we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs.  
  
On the master branch, we took a more future-proof approach by writing  
catalog modifying transactions to the serialized snapshot which avoids the  
above false positive. But we cannot backpatch it because of a change in  
the SnapBuild.

fmgr_sql must make expanded-datum arguments read-only, because  
it's possible that the function body will pass the argument to  
more than one callee function.  If one of those functions takes  
the datum's R/W property as license to scribble on it, then later  
callees will see an unexpected value, leading to wrong answers.  
  
From a performance standpoint, it'd be nice to skip this in the  
common case that the argument value is passed to only one callee.  
However, detecting that seems fairly hard, and certainly not  
something that I care to attempt in a back-patched bug fix.  
  
Per report from Adam Mackler.  This has been broken since we  
invented expanded datums, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Per buildfarm, the output order of \dx+ isn't consistent across  
locales.  Apply NO_LOCALE to force C locale.  There might be a  
more localized way, but I'm not seeing it offhand, and anyway  
there is nothing in this test module that particularly cares  
about locales.

Previously, if an extension script did CREATE OR REPLACE and there was  
an existing object not belonging to the extension, it would overwrite  
the object and adopt it into the extension.  This is problematic, first  
because the overwrite is probably unintentional, and second because we  
didn't change the object's ownership.  Thus a hostile user could create  
an object in advance of an expected CREATE EXTENSION command, and would  
then have ownership rights on an extension object, which could be  
modified for trojan-horse-type attacks.  
  
Hence, forbid CREATE OR REPLACE of an existing object unless it already  
belongs to the extension.  (Note that we've always forbidden replacing  
an object that belongs to some other extension; only the behavior for  
previously-free-standing objects changes here.)  
  
For the same reason, also fail CREATE IF NOT EXISTS when there is  
an existing object that doesn't belong to the extension.  
  
Our thanks to Sven Klemm for reporting this problem.

On closer inspection, mcv.c isn't as broken for ScalarArrayOpExpr  
as I thought.  The Var-on-right issue is real enough, but actually  
it does cope fine with a NULL array constant --- I was misled by  
an XXX comment suggesting it didn't.  Undo that part of the code  
change, and replace the XXX comment with something less misleading.

statext_is_compatible_clause_internal() checked that the arguments  
of a ScalarArrayOpExpr are one Var and one Const, but it would allow  
cases where the Const was on the left.  Subsequent uses of the clause  
are not expecting that and would suffer assertion failures or core  
dumps.  mcv.c also had not bothered to cope with the case of a NULL  
array constant, which seems really unacceptably sloppy of somebody.  
(Although our tools failed us there too, since AFAIK neither Coverity  
nor any compiler warned of the obvious use-of-uninitialized-variable  
condition.)  It seems best to handle that by having  
statext_is_compatible_clause_internal() reject it.  
  
Noted while fixing bug #17570.  Back-patch to v13 where the  
extended stats code grew some awareness of ScalarArrayOpExpr.

This makes it more convenient for git config to contain the  
blame.ignoreRevsFile setting; otherwise current git versions complain if  
the file is not present.  
  
I constructed the file for each branch by scraping the file in branch  
master for commits that appear in that branch.  Because a few additional  
pgindent commits have been added to the list in master since the list  
was first created, this also propagates those to branches 14 and 15  
where the file already existed.  Also, some entries appear to have been  
made using author-date rather than committer-date in the format string,  
so some timestamps are changed.  Also remove bogus whitespace in the  
suggested `git log` format string.

Using ATSimpleRecursion() in ATPrepCmd() to do so as bbb927b4db9b did is  
not correct, because ATPrepCmd() can't distinguish between triggers that  
may be cloned and those that may not, so would wrongly try to recurse  
for the latter category of triggers.  
  
So this commit restores the code in EnableDisableTrigger() that  
86f575948c77 had added to do the recursion, which would do it only for  
triggers that may be cloned, that is, row-level triggers.  This also  
changes tablecmds.c such that ATExecCmd() is able to pass the value of  
ONLY flag down to EnableDisableTrigger() using its new 'recurse'  
parameter.  
  
This also fixes what seems like an oversight of 86f575948c77 that the  
recursion to partition triggers would only occur if EnableDisableTrigger()  
had actually changed the trigger.  It is more apt to recurse to inspect  
partition triggers even if the parent's trigger didn't need to be  
changed: only then can we be certain that all descendants share the same  
state afterwards.  
  
Backpatch all the way back to 11, like bbb927b4db9b.  Care is taken not  
to break ABI compatibility (and that no catversion bump is needed.)

Ordinarily the functions called in this loop ought to have plenty  
of CFIs themselves; but we've now seen a case where no such CFI is  
reached, making the loop uninterruptible.  Even though that's from  
a recently-introduced bug, it seems prudent to install a CFI at  
the loop level in all branches.  
  
Per discussion of bug #17558 from Andrew Kesper (an actual fix for  
that bug will follow).

Remove the test case added by commit fac1b470a, which never actually  
worked to expose the problem it claimed to test.  Replace it with  
a case that does expose the problem, and also covers the SRF-not-  
at-the-top deficiency repaired in 1aa8dad41.

Commit fac1b470a thought we could check for set-returning functions  
by testing only the top-level node in an expression tree.  This is  
wrong in itself, and to make matters worse it encouraged others  
to make the same mistake, by exporting tlist.c's special-purpose  
IS_SRF_CALL() as a widely-visible macro.  I can't find any evidence  
that anyone's taken the bait, but it was only a matter of time.  
  
Use expression_returns_set() instead, and stuff the IS_SRF_CALL()  
genie back in its bottle, this time with a warning label.  I also  
added a couple of cross-reference comments.  
  
After a fair amount of fooling around, I've despaired of making  
a robust test case that exposes the bug reliably, so no test case  
here.  (Note that the test case added by fac1b470a is itself  
broken, in that it doesn't notice if you remove the code change.  
The repro given by the bug submitter currently doesn't fail either  
in v15 or HEAD, though I suspect that may indicate an unrelated bug.)  
  
Per bug #17564 from Martijn van Oosterhout.  Back-patch to v13,  
as the faulty patch was.

The sto_using_cursor and sto_using_select tests were coded to exercise  
every permutation of their test steps, but AFAICS there is no value in  
exercising more than one.  This matters because each permutation costs  
about six seconds, thanks to the "pg_sleep(6)".  Perhaps we could  
reduce that, but the useless permutations seem worth getting rid of  
in any case.  (Note that sto_using_hash_index got it right already.)  
  
While here, clean up some other sloppiness such as an unused table.  
  
This doesn't make too much difference in interactive testing, since the  
wasted time is typically masked by parallelization with other tests.  
However, the buildfarm runs this as a serial step, which means we can  
expect to shave ~40 seconds from every buildfarm run.  That makes it  
worth back-patching.

We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with  
multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files.  It occurred to me that on  
32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow  
of calculations associated with the total query text size.  
Address that with several changes:  
  
1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX.  
The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long"  
is 64 bits.  We still need overflow guards on its use, but  
this helps.  
  
2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to  
more than MaxAllocHugeSize.  If it got that big, qtext_load_file  
would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it.  
Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset,  
and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t.  
  
3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit  
arithmetic on all platforms.  It appears possible that under duress  
those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false  
conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which  
could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table  
insertion.  
  
Per report from Bruno da Silva.  I'm not convinced that these  
issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's  
contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first  
place.  But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense,  
and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties.  
  
(See also commit 8bbe4cbd9, which addressed some related bugs.  
The second Discussion: link is the thread that led up to that.)  
  
This issue is old, and is primarily a problem for old platforms,  
so back-patch.
