Fix <command>ALTER TABLE DETACH PARTITION</command> for cases
involving inconsistent index-based constraints
(&Aacute;lvaro Herrera, Tender Wang)
</para>
<para>
When a partitioned table has an index that is not associated with a
constraint, but a partition has an equivalent index that is, then
detaching the partition would misbehave, leaving the ex-partition's
constraint with an incorrect <structfield>coninhcount</structfield>
value. This would cause trouble during any further manipulations of
that constraint.

Fix handling of polymorphic output arguments for procedures

The SQL <command>CALL</command> statement did not resolve the

as <quote>cannot display a value of type anyelement</quote>, or even
outright crashes. (But <command>CALL</command>
in <application>PL/pgSQL</application> worked correctly.)

Detect another case of a new catalog cache entry becoming stale
while detoasting its fields (Noah Misch)
</para>
<para>
An in-place update occurring while we expand out-of-line fields in a
catalog tuple could be missed, leading to a catalog cache entry that
lacks the in-place change but is not known to be stale. This is
only possible in the <structname>pg_database</structname> catalog,
so the effects are narrow, but misbehavior is possible.

It's possible for a transaction to execute an operation that queues

then to drop the trigger before that happens. Formerly this led to
weird errors such as <quote>could not find

it would have been executed.

Refuse to modify a temporary table of another session
with <literal>ALTER TABLE</literal> (Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
Permissions checks normally would prevent this case from arising,
but it is possible to reach it by altering a parent table whose
child is another session's temporary table. Throw an error if we
discover that such a child table belongs to another session.

Fix failure to recalculate sub-queries generated

In some cases the aggregate result computed at one row of the outer

has only been seen to happen when the outer query uses
<literal>DISTINCT</literal> that is implemented with hash
aggregation, but other cases may exist.

Avoid crashing when a JIT-inlined backend function throws an error
(Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
The error state can include pointers into the dynamically loaded
module holding the JIT-compiled code (for error location strings).
In some code paths the module could get unloaded before the error
report is processed, leading to SIGSEGV when the location strings
are accessed.

Fix handling of subtransactions of prepared transactions
when starting a hot standby server (Heikki Linnakangas)
</para>
<para>
When starting a standby's replay at a shutdown checkpoint WAL
record, transactions that had been prepared but not yet committed on
the primary are correctly understood as being still in progress.
But subtransactions of a prepared transaction (created by savepoints
or <application>PL/pgSQL</application> exception blocks) were not
accounted for and would be treated as aborted. That led to
inconsistency if the prepared transaction was later committed.

Avoid memory leakage after servicing a notify or sinval interrupt

<para>
The processing functions for these events could switch the current

leakage of any data allocated before the incorrect setting gets
replaced. There were observable leaks associated with (at least)
encoding conversion of incoming queries and parameters attached to
Bind messages.
