Valgrind complains that the PQconninfoOption array returned by libpq
is leaked. We apparently believed that we could suppress that warning
by storing that array's address in a static variable. However, modern
C compilers are bright enough to optimize the static variable away.
We could escalate that arms race by making the variable global.
But on the whole it seems better to revise the code so that it
can free libpq's result properly. The only thing that costs
us is copying the parameter-name keywords; which seems like a
pretty negligible cost in a function that runs at most once per
process.

Commit 232d8caea fixed a case where postgres_fdw could lose track
of a PGresult object, resulting in a process-lifespan memory leak.
But I have little faith that there aren't other potential PGresult
leakages, now or in future, in the backend modules that use libpq.
Therefore, this patch proposes infrastructure that makes all
PGresults returned from libpq act as though they are palloc'd
in the CurrentMemoryContext (with the option to relocate them to
another context later). This should greatly reduce the risk of
careless leaks, and it also permits removal of a bunch of code
that attempted to prevent such leaks via PG_TRY blocks.
This patch adds infrastructure that wraps each PGresult in a
"libpqsrv_PGresult" that provides a memory context reset callback
to PQclear the PGresult. Code using this abstraction is inherently
memory-safe to the same extent as we are accustomed to in most backend
code. Furthermore, we add some macros that automatically redirect
calls of the libpq functions concerned with PGresults to use this
infrastructure, so that almost no source-code changes are needed to
wheel this infrastructure into place in all the backend code that
uses libpq.
Perhaps in future we could create similar infrastructure for
PGconn objects, but there seems less need for that.
This patch just creates the infrastructure and makes relevant code
use it, including reverting 232d8caea in favor of this mechanism.
A good deal of follow-on simplification is possible now that we don't
have to be so cautious about freeing PGresults, but I'll put that in
a separate patch.

In commit b262ad440, we introduced an optimization that reduces an IS
[NOT] NULL qual on a NOT NULL column to constant true or constant
false, provided we can prove that the input expression of the NullTest
is not nullable by any outer joins or grouping sets. This deduction
happens quite late in the planner, during the distribution of quals to
rels in query_planner. However, this approach has some drawbacks: we
can't perform any further folding with the constant, and it turns out
to be prone to bugs.
Ideally, this deduction should happen during constant folding.
However, the per-relation information about which columns are defined
as NOT NULL is not available at that point. This information is
currently collected from catalogs when building RelOptInfos for base
or "other" relations.
This patch moves the collection of NOT NULL attribute information for
relations before pull_up_sublinks, storing it in a hash table keyed by
relation OID. It then uses this information to perform the NullTest
deduction for Vars during constant folding. This also makes it
possible to leverage this information to pull up NOT IN subqueries.
Note that this patch does not get rid of restriction_is_always_true
and restriction_is_always_false. Removing them would prevent us from
reducing some IS [NOT] NULL quals that we were previously able to
reduce, because (a) the self-join elimination may introduce new IS NOT
NULL quals after constant folding, and (b) if some outer joins are
converted to inner joins, previously irreducible NullTest quals may
become reducible.

For example, bt_index_check() with a partitioned btree index produced:
ERROR: expected "btree" index as targets for verification

Reporting "expected btree index as targets" even when the specified

What we want in these places is "xmlChar *volatile ptr",
not "volatile xmlChar *ptr". The former means that the
pointer variable itself needs to be treated as volatile,
while the latter says that what it points to is volatile.
Since the point here is to ensure that the pointer variables
don't go crazy after a longjmp, it's the former semantics
that we need. The misplacement of "volatile" also led
to needing to cast away volatile in some places.
Also fix a number of places where variables that are assigned to
within a PG_TRY and then used after it were not initialized or
not marked as volatile. (A few buildfarm members were issuing
"may be used uninitialized" warnings about some of these variables,
which is what drew my attention to this area.) In most cases
these variables were being set as the last step within the PG_TRY
block, which might mean that we could get away without the "volatile"
marking. But doing that seems unsafe and is definitely not per our
coding conventions.
These problems seem to have come in with 732061150, so no need

Prior to this patch, every FETCH call would generate a unique queryId
with a different size specified. Depending on the workloads, this could
lead to a significant bloat in pg_stat_statements, as repeatedly calling
a specific cursor would result in a new queryId each time. For example,
FETCH 1 c1; and FETCH 2 c1; would produce different queryIds.
This patch improves the situation by normalizing the fetch size, so as
semantically similar statements generate the same queryId. As a result,
statements like the below, which differ syntactically but have the same
effect, will now share a single queryId:
FETCH FROM c1
FETCH NEXT c1
FETCH 1 c1
In order to do a normalization based on the keyword used in FETCH,
FetchStmt is tweaked with a new FetchDirectionKeywords. This matters
for "howMany", which could be set to a negative value depending on the
direction, and we want to normalize the queries with enough information
about the direction keywords provided, including RELATIVE, ABSOLUTE or

When querying NUMA status of pages in shared memory, we need to touch
the memory first to get valid results. This may trigger valgrind
reports, because some of the memory (e.g. unpinned buffers) may be
marked as noaccess.
Solved by adding a valgrind suppresion. An alternative would be to
adjust the access/noaccess status before touching the memory, but that
seems far too invasive. It would require all those places to have
detailed knowledge of what the shared memory stores.
The pg_numa_touch_mem_if_required() macro is replaced with a function.
Macros are invisible to suppressions, so it'd have to suppress reports
for the caller - e.g. pg_get_shmem_allocations_numa(). So we'd suppress
reports for the whole function, and that seems to heavy-handed. It might
easily hide other valid issues.

The contrib module xml2/ has always been fuzzy with the cleanup of the
memory allocated by the calls internal to libxml2, even if there are
APIs in place giving a lot of control over the error behavior, all
located in the backend's xml.c.
The code paths fixed in the commit address multiple defects, while
sanitizing the code:
- In xpath.c, several allocations are done by libxml2 for
xpath_workspace, whose memory cleanup could go out of sight as it relied
on a single TRY/CATCH block done in pgxml_xpath(). workspace->res is
allocated by libxml2, and may finish by not being freed at all upon a
failure outside of a TRY area. This code is refactored so as the
TRY/CATCH block of pgxml_xpath() is moved one level higher to its
callers, which are responsible for cleaning up the contents of a
workspace on failure. cleanup_workspace() now requires a volatile
workspace, forcing as a rule that a TRY/CATCH block should be used.
- Several calls, like xmlStrdup(), xmlXPathNewContext(),
xmlXPathCtxtCompile(), etc. can return NULL on failures (for most of
them allocation failures. These forgot to check for failures, or missed
that pg_xml_error_occurred() should be called, to check if an error is
already on the stack.
- Some memory allocated by libxml2 calls was freed in an incorrect way,
"resstr" in xslt_process() being one example.
The class of errors fixed here are for problems that are unlikely going
to happen in practice, so no backpatch is done. The changes have
finished by being rather invasive, so it is perhaps not a bad thing to
be conservative and to keep these changes only on HEAD anyway.

so we can check that.
* The root page was skipped when checking entry order, but that is

* The high key on the right-most page was not checked, but that is
needed only for inner pages (we don't store the high key for those).
For leaf pages we can check the high key just fine.
* Correct the detection of split pages. If the page gets split, the

Commit 4909b38af0 introduced logic to distribute invalidation messages
from catalog-modifying transactions to all concurrent in-progress
transactions. However, since each transaction distributes not only its
original invalidation messages but also previously distributed
messages to other transactions, this leads to an exponential increase
in allocation request size for invalidation messages, ultimately
causing memory allocation failure.
This commit fixes this issue by tracking distributed invalidation
messages separately per decoded transaction and not redistributing
these messages to other in-progress transactions. The maximum size of
distributed invalidation messages that one transaction can store is
limited to MAX_DISTR_INVAL_MSG_PER_TXN (8MB). Once the size of the
distributed invalidation messages exceeds this threshold, we
invalidate all caches in locations where distributed invalidation
messages need to be executed.
Back-patch to all supported versions where we introduced the fix by
commit 4909b38af0.
Note that this commit adds two new fields to ReorderBufferTXN to store
the distributed transactions. This change breaks ABI compatibility in
back branches, affecting third-party extensions that depend on the
size of the ReorderBufferTXN struct, though this scenario seems
unlikely.
Additionally, it adds a new flag to the txn_flags field of
ReorderBufferTXN to indicate distributed invalidation message
overflow. This should not affect existing implementations, as it is
unlikely that third-party extensions use unused bits in the txn_flags
field.

The algorithm to squash lists of constants added by commit 62d712ecfd
was a bit too simplistic; we wanted to avoid adding unnecessary
complexity, but cases like direct function calls of typecasting
functions (and others) were missed, and bogus SQL syntax was being shown
in pg_stat_statements normalized query text field. To fix normalization
for those cases, we need the parser to transmit information about were
each list of constant values starts and ends, so add that to a couple of
nodes. Also add a few more test cases to make sure we're doing the
right thing.
The patch initially submitted by Sami added a new private struct in
gram.y to carry the start/end information for A_Expr, but I (Álvaro)
decided that a better fix was to remove the parser indirection via the
in_expr production, and instead create separate components in the a_expr
rule. I'm surprised that this works and doesn't require more changes,
but I assume (without checking) that the grammar used to be more complex
and got simplified at some point.

This commit reverts the two following commits:
- 499edb0974, track more precisely query locations for nested
statements.
- 06450c7b8c, a follow-up fix of 499edb0974 with query locations.
The test introduced in this commit is not reverted. This is proving
useful to track a problem that only pgaudit was able to detect.
These prove to have issues with the tracking of SELECT statements, when
these use multiple parenthesis which is something supported by the
grammar. Incorrect location and lengths are causing pg_stat_statements
to become confused, failing its job in query normalization with
potential out-of-bound writes because the location and the length may
not match with what can be handled. A lot of the query patterns
discussed when this issue was reported have no test coverage in the main
regression test suite, or the recovery test 027_stream_regress.pl would
have caught the problems as pg_stat_statements is loaded by the node
running the regression tests. A first step would be to improve the test
coverage to stress more the query normalization logic.
A different portion of this work was done in 45e0ba30fc, with the
addition of tests for nested queries. These can be left in the tree.
They are useful to track the way inner queries are currently tracked by
PGSS with non-top-level entries, and will be useful when reconsidering
in the future the work reverted here.

We store values for these options as array elements with the syntax
"name=value", hence a name containing "=" confuses matters when
it's time to read the array back in. Since validation of the
options is often done (long) after this conversion to array format,
that leads to confusing and off-point error messages. We can
improve matters by rejecting names containing "=" up-front.
(Probably a better design would have involved pairs of array
elements, but it's too late now --- and anyway, there's no
evident use-case for option names like this. We already
reject such names in some other contexts such as GUCs.)

Commit 7406ab623f added a gist support function that we internally
refer to by the symbol GIST_STRATNUM_PROC. This translated from
"well-known" strategy numbers to opfamily-specific strategy numbers.
However, we later (commit 630f9a43ce) changed this to fit into
index-AM-level compare type mapping, so this function actually now
maps from compare type to opfamily-specific strategy numbers. So this
name is no longer fitting.
Moreover, the index AM level also supports the opposite, a function to
map from strategy number to compare type. This is currently not
supported in gist, but one might wonder what this function is supposed
to be called when it is added.
This patch changes the naming of the gist-level functionality to be
more in line with the index-AM-level functionality. This makes sense
because these are essentially the same thing on different levels.
This also changes the names of the externally visible functions that
are provided for use as such a support function.

Previously, postgres_fdw always 1) opened a remote transaction in READ
WRITE mode even when the local transaction was READ ONLY, causing a READ
ONLY transaction using it that references a foreign table mapped to a
remote view executing a volatile function to write in the remote side,
and 2) opened the remote transaction in NOT DEFERRABLE mode even when
the local transaction was DEFERRABLE, causing a SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY
DEFERRABLE transaction using it to abort due to a serialization failure
in the remote side.
To avoid these, modify postgres_fdw to open a remote transaction in the
same access/deferrable modes as the local transaction. This commit also
modifies it to open a remote subtransaction in the same access mode as
the local subtransaction.
Although these issues exist since the introduction of postgres_fdw,
there have been no reports from the field. So it seems fine to just fix
them in master only.

postgres_fdw tries to use PG_TRY blocks to ensure that it will
eventually free the PGresult created by the remote modify command.
However, it's fundamentally impossible for this scheme to work
reliably when there's RETURNING data, because the query could fail
in between invocations of postgres_fdw's DirectModify methods.
There is at least one instance of exactly this situation in the
regression tests, and the ensuing session-lifespan leak is visible
under Valgrind.
We can improve matters by using a memory context reset callback
attached to the ExecutorState context. That ensures that the
PGresult will be freed when the ExecutorState context is torn
down, even if control never reaches postgresEndDirectModify.
I have little faith that there aren't other potential PGresult
leakages in the backend modules that use libpq. So I think it'd
be a good idea to apply this concept universally by creating
infrastructure that attaches a reset callback to every PGresult
generated in the backend. However, that seems too invasive for
v18 at this point, let alone the back branches. So for the
moment, apply this narrow fix that just makes DirectModify safe.
I have a patch in the queue for the more general idea, but it
will have to wait for v19.

uint64 was perhaps chosen in cff440d36 as the type was uint32 prior to
that widening work.
Having this as uint64 doesn't make much sense and just adds the overhead of
having to remember that we always output this in its signed form. Let's
remove that overhead.
The signed form output is seemingly required since we have no way to
represent the full range of uint64 in an SQL type. We use BIGINT in places
like pg_stat_statements, which maps directly to int64.
The release notes "Source Code" section may want to mention this
adjustment as some extensions may wish to adjust their code.

If we hit out-of-memory between creating the PGconn and inserting
it into dblink's hashtable, we'd lose track of the PGconn, which
is quite bad since it represents a live connection to a remote DB.
Fix by rearranging things so that we create the hashtable entry
first.
Also reduce the number of states we have to deal with by getting rid
of the separately-allocated remoteConn object, instead allocating it
in-line in the hashtable entries. (That incidentally removes a
session-lifespan memory leak observed in the regression tests.)
There is an apparently-irreducible remaining OOM hazard, which
is that if the connection fails at the libpq level (ie it's
CONNECTION_BAD) then we have to pstrdup the PGconn's error message
before we can release it, and theoretically that could fail. However,
in such cases we're only leaking memory not a live remote connection,
so I'm not convinced that it's worth sweating over.
This is a pretty low-probability failure mode of course, but losing
a live connection seems bad enough to justify back-patching.

An assertion test added in commit 049ef33 could fail when pg_prewarm()
was called on objects without storage, such as partitioned tables.
This resulted in the following failure in assert-enabled builds:
Failed Assert("RelFileNumberIsValid(rlocator.relNumber)")
Note that, in non-assert builds, pg_prewarm() just failed with an error
in that case, so there was no ill effect in practice.
This commit fixes the issue by having pg_prewarm() raise an error early
if the specified object has no storage. This approach is similar to
the fix in commit 4623d7144 for pg_freespacemap.
Back-patched to v17, where the issue was introduced.

pg_stat_statements anticipates that certain constant locations may be
recorded multiple times and attempts to avoid calculating a length for
these locations in fill_in_constant_lengths().
However, during generate_normalized_query() where normalized query
strings are generated, these locations are not excluded from
consideration. This could increment the parameter number counter for
every recorded occurrence at such a location, leading to an incorrect
normalization in certain cases with gaps in the numbers reported.
For example, take this query:
SELECT WHERE '1' IN ('2'::int, '3'::int::text)
Before this commit, it would be normalized like that, with gaps in the
parameter numbers:
SELECT WHERE $1 IN ($3::int, $4::int::text)
However the correct, less confusing one should be like that:
SELECT WHERE $1 IN ($2::int, $3::int::text)
This commit fixes the computation of the parameter numbers to track the
number of constants replaced with an $n by a separate counter instead of
the iterator used to loop through the list of locations.
The underlying query IDs are not changed, neither are the normalized
strings for existing PGSS hash entries. New entries with fresh
normalized queries would automatically get reshaped based on the new
parameter numbering.
Issue discovered while discussing a separate problem for HEAD, but this
affects all the stable branches.
