In 2a0faed9d7, which added JIT compilation support for expressions, I
accidentally used sizeof(LLVMBasicBlockRef *) instead of
sizeof(LLVMBasicBlockRef) as part of computing the size of an allocation. That
turns out to have no real negative consequences due to LLVMBasicBlockRef being
a pointer itself (and thus having the same size). It still is wrong and
confusing, so fix it.

we want to update CI to Debian Trixie. Trixie contains a newer mingw

It's possible to define BRIN indexes on functions that require a
snapshot to run, but the autosummarization feature introduced by commit
7526e10224 fails to provide one. This causes autovacuum to leave a
BRIN placeholder tuple behind after a failed work-item execution, making
such indexes less efficient. Repair by obtaining a snapshot prior to
running the task, and add a test to verify this behavior.

Commit b4f584f9d2 (affecting v15~, later backpatched down to 13 as of
3635a0a35a) introduced an unconditional WAL receiver shutdown when
switching from streaming to archive WAL sources. This causes problems
during a timeline switch, when a WAL receiver enters WALRCV_WAITING
state but remains alive, waiting for instructions.
The unconditional shutdown can break some monitoring scenarios as the
WAL receiver gets repeatedly terminated and re-spawned, causing
pg_stat_wal_receiver.status to show a "streaming" instead of "waiting"
status, masking the fact that the WAL receiver is waiting for a new TLI
and a new LSN to be able to continue streaming.
This commit changes the WAL receiver behavior so as the shutdown becomes
conditional, with InstallXLogFileSegmentActive being always reset to
prevent the regression fixed by b4f584f9d2: only terminate the WAL
receiver when it is actively streaming (WALRCV_STREAMING,
WALRCV_STARTING, or WALRCV_RESTARTING). When in WALRCV_WAITING state,
just reset InstallXLogFileSegmentActive flag to allow archive
restoration without killing the process. WALRCV_STOPPED and
WALRCV_STOPPING are not reachable states in this code path. For the
latter, the startup process is the one in charge of setting
WALRCV_STOPPING via ShutdownWalRcv(), waiting for the WAL receiver to
reach a WALRCV_STOPPED state after switching walRcvState, so
WaitForWALToBecomeAvailable() cannot be reached while a WAL receiver is
in a WALRCV_STOPPING state.
A regression test is added to check that a WAL receiver is not stopped
on timeline jump, that fails when the fix of this commit is reverted.

This commit reverts 818fefd8fd, that has been introduced to address a
an instability in some of the TAP tests due to the presence of random
standby snapshot WAL records, when slots are invalidated by
InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot().
Anyway, this commit had also the consequence of introducing a behavior
regression. After 818fefd8fd, the code may determine that a slot needs
to be invalidated while it may not require one: the slot may have moved
from a conflicting state to a non-conflicting state between the moment
when the mutex is released and the moment when we recheck the slot, in
InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot(). Hence, the invalidations may be more
aggressive than they actually have to.
105b2cb336 has tackled the test instability in a way that should be
hopefully sufficient for the buildfarm, even for slow members:
- In v18, the test relies on an injection point that bypasses the
creation of the random records generated for standby snapshots,
eliminating the random factor that impacted the test. This option was
not available when 818fefd8fd was discussed.
- In v16 and v17, the problem was bypassed by disallowing a slot to
become active in some of the scenarios tested.
While on it, this commit adds a comment to document that it is fine for
a recheck to use xmin and LSN values stored in the slot, without storing
and reusing them across multiple checks.

Because long is 32-bit on 64-bit Windows, it isn't a good datatype to
store the difference between 2 pointers. The under-sized type could
overflow and lead to scary warnings in MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING builds,
such as:
WARNING: problem in alloc set ExecutorState: bad single-chunk %p in block %p
However, the problem lies only in the code running the check, not from
an actual memory accounting bug.
Fix by using "Size" instead of "long". This means using an unsigned
type rather than the previous signed type. If the block's freeptr was
corrupted, we'd still catch that if the unsigned type wrapped. Unsigned
allows us to avoid further needless complexities around comparing signed
and unsigned types.

Previously, the check_hook for synchronized_standby_slots attempted to
validate that each specified slot existed and was physical. However, these
checks were not performed during server startup. As a result, if users
configured non-existent slots before startup, the misconfiguration would
go undetected initially. This could later cause parallel query failures,
as newly launched workers would detect the issue and raise an ERROR.
This patch improves the check_hook by validating the syntax and format of
slot names. Validation of slot existence and type is deferred to the WAL
sender process, aligning with the behavior of the check_hook for
primary_slot_name.

When dealing with ResultRelInfos for partitions, there are cases where
there are mixed requirements for the ri_RootResultRelInfo. There are
cases when the partition itself requires a NULL ri_RootResultRelInfo and
in the same query, the same partition may require a ResultRelInfo with
its parent set in ri_RootResultRelInfo. This could cause the column
mapping between the partitioned table and the partition not to be done
which could result in crashes if the column attnums didn't match
exactly.
The fix is simple. We now check that the ri_RootResultRelInfo matches
what the caller passed to ExecGetTriggerResultRel() and only return a
cached ResultRelInfo when the ri_RootResultRelInfo matches what the
caller wants, otherwise we'll make a new one.

Commit c6f7f11d8 intended to prevent leaking any PyObject reference
counts in edge cases (such as out-of-memory during string
construction), but actually it introduced a leak in the normal case.
Repeating an error-trapping operation often enough would lead to
session-lifespan memory bloat. The problem is that I failed to
think about the fact that PyObject_GetAttrString() increments the
refcount of the returned PyObject, so that simply walking down the
list of error frame objects causes all but the first one to have
their refcount incremented.
I experimented with several more-or-less-complex ways around that,
and eventually concluded that the right fix is simply to drop the
newly-obtained refcount as soon as we walk to the next frame
object in PLy_traceback. This sounds unsafe, but it's perfectly
okay because the caller holds a refcount on the first frame object
and each frame object holds a refcount on the next one; so the
current frame object can't disappear underneath us.
By the same token, we can simplify the caller's cleanup back to
simply dropping its refcount on the first object. Cleanup of
each frame object will lead in turn to the refcount of the next
one going to zero.
I also added a couple of comments explaining why PLy_elog_impl()
doesn't try to free the strings acquired from PLy_get_spi_error_data()
or PLy_get_error_data(). That's because I got here by looking at a
Coverity complaint about how those strings might get leaked. They
are not leaked, but in testing that I discovered this other leak.
Back-patch, as c6f7f11d8 was. It's a bit nervous-making to be
putting such a fix into v13, which is only a couple weeks from its
final release; but I can't see that leaving a recently-introduced
leak in place is a better idea.

When JIT deformed tuples (controlled via the jit_tuple_deforming GUC),
types narrower than sizeof(Datum) would be zero-extended up to Datum
width. This wasn't the same as what fetch_att() does in the standard
tuple deforming code. Logically the values are the same when fetching
via the DatumGet*() marcos, but negative numbers are not the same in
binary form.
In the report, the problem was manifesting itself with:
ERROR: could not find memoization table entry
in a query which had a "Cache Mode: binary" Memoize node. However, it's
currently unclear what else is affected. Anything that uses
datum_image_eq() or datum_image_hash() on a Datum from a tuple deformed by
JIT could be affected, but it may not be limited to that.
The fix for this is simple: use signed extension instead of zero
extension.

Previously, when the replay LSN reported in feedback messages from a standby
stopped advancing, for example, due to a recovery conflict, the write_lag and
flush_lag columns in pg_stat_replication would initially update but then stop
progressing. This prevented users from correctly monitoring replication lag.
The problem occurred because when any LSN stopped updating, the lag tracker's
cyclic buffer became full (the write head reached the slowest read head).
In that state, the lag tracker could no longer compute round-trip lag values
correctly.
This commit fixes the issue by handling the slowest read entry (the one
causing the buffer to fill) as a separate overflow entry and freeing space
so the write and other read heads can continue advancing in the buffer.
As a result, write_lag and flush_lag now continue updating even if the reported
replay LSN remains stalled.

The revised logic in 001_ssltests.pl would fail if openssl
doesn't work or if Perl is a 32-bit build, because it had
already overwritten $serialno with something inappropriate
to use in the eventual match. We could go back to the
previous code layout, but it seems best to introduce a
separate variable for the output of openssl.
Per failure on buildfarm member mamba, which has a 32-bit Perl.
It emerges that zlib's configuration logic is not robust enough
to guarantee that the macro will have the same ideas about struct
field layout as the library itself does, leading to corruption of
zlib's state struct followed by unintelligible failure messages.
This hazard has existed for a long time, but we'd not noticed
for several reasons:
(1) We only use gzgetc() when trying to read a manually-compressed
TOC file within a directory-format dump, which is a rarely-used
scenario that we weren't even testing before 20ec99589.
(2) No corruption actually occurs unless sizeof(long) is different
from sizeof(off_t) and the platform is big-endian.
(3) Some platforms have already fixed the configuration instability,
at least sufficiently for their environments.
Despite (3), it seems foolish to assume that the problem isn't
going to be present in some environments for a long time to come.
Hence, avoid relying on this macro. We can just #undef it and
fall back on the underlying function of the same name.

function for foreign/custom joins even if they aren't descendant nodes

an alternative local-join plan required for running the recheck method

n_distinct_inherited needs to be adjusted rather than n_distinct.
Also fix some slightly misleading text which was talking about table
size rather than table rows, fix a grammatical error, and adjust some
text which indicated that ANALYZE was performing calculations based on
the n_distinct settings. Really it's the query planner that does this
and ANALYZE only stores the overridden n_distinct estimate value in
pg_statistic.

pg_dump expects a read request of zero bytes to be a no-op; see for
example ReadStr(). Gzip_read got this wrong and falsely supposed
that the resulting gzret == 0 indicated an error. We could complicate
that error-checking logic some more, but it seems best to just fall
out immediately when passed size == 0.
This bug breaks the nominally-supported case of manually gzip'ing
the toc.dat file within a directory-style dump, so back-patch to v16
where this code came in. (Prior branches already have a short-circuit
for size == 0 before their only gzread call.)

In commit a45c78e32 I removed the only regression test case that
reaches this function, because it turns out that we only use it
if reading an LZ4-compressed blobs.toc file in a directory dump,
and that is a state that has to be created manually. That seems
like a bad thing to not test, not so much for LZ4Stream_gets()
itself as because it means the squirrely eol_flag logic in
LZ4Stream_read_internal() is not tested.
The reason for the change was that I thought the lz4 program did not
have any way to perform compression without explicit specification
of the output file name. However, it turns out that the syntax
synopsis in its man page is a lie, and if you read enough of the
man page you find out that with "-m" it will do what's needful.
So restore the manual compression step in that test case.
Noted while testing some proposed changes in pg_dump's compression
logic.

Commit 71f4c8c6f7 (which implemented DETACH CONCURRENTLY) added code
to create a separate table constraint when a table is detached
concurrently, identical to the partition constraint, on the theory that
such a constraint was needed in case the optimizer had constructed any
query plans that depended on the constraint being there. However, that
theory was apparently bogus because any such plans would be invalidated.
For hash partitioning, those constraints are problematic, because their
expressions reference the OID of the parent partitioned table, to which
the detached table is no longer related; this causes all sorts of
problems (such as inability of restoring a pg_dump of that table, and
the table no longer working properly if the partitioned table is later
dropped).
We'd like to get rid of all those constraints. In fact, for branch
master, do that -- no longer create any substitute constraints.
However, out of fear that some users might somehow depend on these
constraints for other partitioning strategies, for stable branches
(back to 14, which added DETACH CONCURRENTLY), only do it for hash
partitioning.
(If you repeatedly DETACH CONCURRENTLY and then ATTACH a partition, then
with this constraint addition you don't need to scan the table in the
ATTACH step, which presumably is good. But if users really valued this
feature, they would have requested that it worked for non-concurrent
DETACH also.)
