This operation was possible for the owner of the schema or a superuser.
Down to 9.4, doing this operation would cause inconsistencies in a
session whose temporary schema was dropped, particularly if trying to
create new temporary objects after the drop. A more annoying
consequence is a crash of autovacuum on an assertion failure when
logging information about an orphaned temp table dropped. Note that
because of 246a6c8 (present in v11~), which has made the removal of
orphaned temporary tables more aggressive, the failure could be
triggered more easily, but it is possible to reproduce down to 9.4.

Our algorithm for choosing batch numbers turned out not to work
effectively for multi-billion key inner relations. We would use
more hash bits than we have, and effectively concentrate all tuples
into a smaller number of batches than we intended. While ideally
we should switch to wider hashes, for now, change the algorithm to
one that effectively gives up bits from the bucket number when we
don't have enough bits. That means we'll finish up with longer
bucket chains than would be ideal, but that's better than having
batches that don't fit in work_mem and can't be divided.

While building a hash map of categories in load_categories_hash,
resulting category names have not thus far been checked to ensure
they are not null. Prior to pg12 null category names worked to the
extent that they did not crash on some platforms. This is because
those system libraries have an snprintf which can deal with being
passed a null pointer argument for a string. But even in those cases
null categories did nothing useful. And on some platforms it crashed.
As of pg12, our own version of snprintf gets called, and it does
not deal with null pointer arguments at all, and crashes consistently.
Fix that by disallowing null categories. They never worked usefully,
and no one has ever asked for them to work previously. Back-patch to

This wasn't checked originally, but it should have been, because
in general pseudo-types can't be stored to and retrieved from disk.
Notably, partition bound values of type "record" would not be
interpretable by another session.
In v12 and HEAD, add another flag to CheckAttributeType's repertoire
so that it can produce a specific error message for this case. That's
infeasible in older branches without an ABI break, so fall back to

This fixes a performance problem introduced by commit 6d7547c21.
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED is returned in some other cases besides the
delete-pending case considered by that commit; notably, if the
given path names a directory instead of a plain file. In that
case we'll uselessly loop for 1 second before returning the
failure condition. That slows down some usage scenarios enough
to cause test timeout failures on our Windows buildfarm critters.
To fix, try to stat() the file, and sleep/loop only if that fails.
It will fail in the delete-pending case, and also in the case where
the deletion completed before we could stat(), so we have the cases
where we want to loop covered. In the directory case, the stat()
should succeed, letting us exit without a wait.
One case where we'll still wait uselessly is if the access-denied
problem pertains to a directory in the given pathname. But we don't
expect that to happen in any performance-critical code path.
There might be room to refine this further, but I'll push it now

restricted due to lack of the feature in a particular build.
However, that lesson from the SSL support was for some reason never

which is pretty unhelpful and certainly not the intended behavior.
I (tgl) evidently broke this in commit cfc5008a5, by not noticing

In HEAD and v12, this is trivially fixable by moving up the

Attempting to open a file fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED if the file
is flagged for deletion but not yet actually gone (another in a long
list of reasons why Windows is broken, if you ask me). This seems
likely to explain a lot of irreproducible failures we see in the
buildfarm. This state generally persists for only a millisecond or so,
so just wait a bit and retry. If it's a real permissions problem,
we'll eventually give up and report it as such. If it's the pending
deletion case, we'll see file-not-found and report that after the
deletion completes, and the caller will treat that in an appropriate
way.
In passing, rejigger the existing retry logic for some other error
cases so that we don't uselessly wait an extra time when we're

pg_signal_dispatch_thread() responded to the client (signal sender)
and disconnected the pipe before actually setting the shared variables
that make the signal visible to the backend process's main thread.
In the worst case, it seems, effective delivery of the signal could be
postponed for as long as the machine has any other work to do.
To fix, just move the pg_queue_signal() call so that we do it before
responding to the client. This essentially makes pgkill() synchronous,
which is a stronger guarantee than we have on Unix. That may be
overkill, but on the other hand we have not seen comparable timing bugs

isolationtester.c had a hard-wired limit of 3 minutes per test step.
It now emerges that this isn't quite enough for some of the slowest
buildfarm animals. This isn't the first time we've had to raise
this limit (cf. 1db439ad4), so let's make it configurable. This
patch raises the default to 5 minutes, and introduces an environment
variable PGISOLATIONTIMEOUT that can be set if more time is needed,
following the precedent of PGCTLTIMEOUT.
Also, modify isolationtester so that when the timeout is hit,
it explicitly reports having sent a cancel. This makes the regression
failure log considerably more intelligible. (In the worst case, a
timed-out test might actually be reported as "passing" without this
extra output, so arguably this is a bug fix in itself.)

We implement ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS by truncating tables marked that
way, which requires also truncating/rebuilding their indexes. But
RelationTruncateIndexes asks the relcache for up-to-date copies of any
index expressions, which may cause execution of eval_const_expressions
on them, which can result in actual execution of subexpressions.
This is a bad thing to have happening during ON COMMIT. Manuel Rigger
reported that use of a SQL function resulted in crashes due to
expectations that ActiveSnapshot would be set, which it isn't.
The most obvious fix perhaps would be to push a snapshot during
PreCommit_on_commit_actions, but I think that would just open the door
to more problems: CommitTransaction explicitly expects that no
user-defined code can be running at this point.
Fortunately, since we know that no tuples exist to be indexed, there
seems no need to use the real index expressions or predicates during
RelationTruncateIndexes. We can set up dummy index expressions
instead (we do need something that will expose the right data type,
as there are places that build index tupdescs based on this), and
just ignore predicates and exclusion constraints.
In a green field it'd likely be better to reimplement ON COMMIT DELETE
ROWS using the same "init fork" infrastructure used for unlogged
relations. That seems impractical without catalog changes though,
and even without that it'd be too big a change to back-patch.
So for now do it like this.

When using %b or %B patterns to format a date, the code was simply using

either use name of the next month, or a segfault (for December).

test triggering the issue. Backpatch to all supported versions (the bug

If LISTEN is the only action in a serializable-mode transaction,
and the session was not previously listening, and the notify queue
is not empty, predicate.c reported an assertion failure. That
happened because we'd acquire the transaction's initial snapshot
during PreCommit_Notify, which was called *after* predicate.c
expects any such snapshot to have been established.
To fix, just swap the order of the PreCommit_Notify and
PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure calls during CommitTransaction.
This will imply holding the notify-insertion lock slightly longer,
but the difference could only be meaningful in serializable mode,
which is an expensive option anyway.
It appears that this is just an assertion failure, with no
consequences in non-assert builds. A snapshot used only to scan
the notify queue could not have been involved in any serialization
conflicts, so there would be nothing for
PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure to do except assign it a
prepareSeqNo and set the SXACT_FLAG_PREPARED flag. And given no
conflicts, neither of those omissions affect the behavior of
ReleasePredicateLocks. This admittedly once-over-lightly analysis
is backed up by the lack of field reports of trouble.

This patch ensures that, if any notify messages were received during
a just-finished transaction, they get sent to the frontend just before
not just after the ReadyForQuery message. With libpq and other client
libraries that act similarly, this guarantees that the client will see
the notify messages as available as soon as it thinks the transaction
is done.
This probably makes no difference in practice, since in realistic
use-cases the application would have to cope with asynchronous
arrival of notify events anyhow. However, it makes it a lot easier
to build cross-session-notify test cases with stable behavior.
I'm a bit surprised now that we've not seen any buildfarm instability
with the test cases added by commit b10f40bf0. Tests that I intend

slot_modify_cstrings seriously abused the TupleTableSlot API by relying

this abuse was also quite undocumented, it's little surprise that the
case got broken during the v12 slot rewrites. As reported in bug #16129
from Ondřej Jirman, this could lead to crashes or data corruption when
a logical replication subscriber processes a row update. Problems would
only arise if the subscriber's table contained columns of pass-by-ref
types that were not being copied from the publisher.
Fix by explicitly copying the datum/isnull arrays from the source slot
that the old row was in already. This ends up being about the same
thing that happened pre-v12, but hopefully in a less opaque and
fragile way.
We might've caught the problem sooner if there were any test cases

While a self-referential view doesn't actually work, it's possible
to create one, and it turns out that this breaks some of the
information_schema views. Those views call relation_is_updatable(),
which neglected to consider the hazards of being recursive. In
older PG versions you get a "stack depth limit exceeded" error,
but since v10 it'd recurse to the point of stack overrun and crash,
because commit a4c35ea1c took out the expression_returns_set() call
that was incidentally checking the stack depth.
Since this function is only used by information_schema views, it
seems like it'd be better to return "not updatable" than suffer
an error. Hence, add tracking of what views we're examining,
in just the same way that the nearby fireRIRrules() code detects
self-referential views. I added a check_stack_depth() call too,
just to be defensive.

Trying to use hypothetical indexes with BRIN currently fails when trying
to access a relation that does not exist when looking for the
statistics. With the current API, it is not possible to easily pass
a value for pages_per_range down to the hypothetical index, so this
makes use of the default value of BRIN_DEFAULT_PAGES_PER_RANGE, which
should be fine enough in most cases.
Being able to refine or enforce the hypothetical costs in more
optimistic ways would require more refactoring by filling in the

Commit 6b76f1bb5 changed all the RADIUS auth parameters to be lists
rather than single values. But its use of SplitIdentifierString
to parse the list format was not very carefully thought through,
because that function thinks it's parsing SQL identifiers, which
means it will (a) downcase the strings and (b) truncate them to
be shorter than NAMEDATALEN. While downcasing should be harmless
for the server names and ports, it's just wrong for the shared
secrets, and probably for the NAS Identifier strings as well.
The truncation aspect is at least potentially a problem too,
though typical values for these parameters would fit in 63 bytes.
Fortunately, we now have a function SplitGUCList that is exactly
the same except for not doing the two unwanted things, so fixing
this is a trivial matter of calling that function instead.

The TableFunc node (i.e., XMLTABLE) includes type and collation OIDs

so they need to be accounted for when extracting dependencies.
Fortunately, the practical effects of this are limited, since
(a) it's somewhat unlikely that people would be extracting
columns of non-builtin types from an XML document, and (b)
in many scenarios, the query would contain other references
to such types, or functions depending on them. However, it's
not hard to construct examples wherein the existing code lets
one drop a type used in XMLTABLE and thereby break a view.
This is evidently an original oversight in the XMLTABLE patch,
so back-patch to v10 where that came in.

pg_upgrade needs to check whether certain non-upgradable data types
appear anywhere on-disk in the source cluster. It knew that it has
to check for these types being contained inside domains and composite
types; but it somehow overlooked that they could be contained in
arrays and ranges, too. Extend the existing recursive-containment
query to handle those cases.
We probably should have noticed this oversight while working on
commit 0ccfc2822 and follow-ups, but we failed to :-(. The whole
thing's possibly a bit overdesigned, since we don't really expect
that any of these types will appear on disk; but if we're going to
the effort of doing a recursive search then it's silly not to cover
all the possibilities.
While at it, refactor so that we have only one copy of the search
logic, not three-and-counting. Also, to keep the branches looking
more alike, back-patch the output wording change of commit 1634d3615.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

The example of expansion of multiple views claimed that the resulting
subquery nest would not get fully flattened because of an aggregate
function. There's no aggregate in the example, though, only a user
defined function confusingly named MIN(). In a modern server, the
reason for the non-flattening is that MIN() is volatile, but I'm
unsure whether that was true back when this text was written.
Let's reduce the confusion level by using LEAST() instead (which
we didn't have at the time this example was created). And then
we can just say that the planner will flatten the sub-queries, so
the rewrite system doesn't have to.
Noted by Paul Jungwirth. This text is old enough to vote, so
back-patch to all supported branches.
