39a96512b3 Mark built-in btree comparison functions as leakproof where it's safe.
Generally, if the comparison operators for a datatype or pair of datatypes
are leakproof, the corresponding btree comparison support function can be
considered so as well.  But we had not originally worried about marking
support functions as leakproof, reasoning that they'd not likely be used in
queries so the marking wouldn't matter.  It turns out there's at least one
place where it does matter: calc_arraycontsel() finds the target datatype's
default btree comparison function and tries to use that to estimate
selectivity, but it will be blocked in some cases if the function isn't
leakproof.  This leads to unnecessarily poor selectivity estimates and bad
plans, as seen in bug #15251.

Hence, run around and apply proleakproof markings where the corresponding
btree comparison operators are leakproof.  (I did eyeball each function
to verify that it wasn't doing anything surprising, too.)

This isn't a full solution to bug #15251, and it's not back-patchable
because of the need for a catversion bump.  A more useful response probably
is to consider whether we can check permissions on the parent table instead
of the child.  However, this change will help in some cases where that
won't, and it's easy enough to do in HEAD, so let's do so.

57cd2b6e6d Fix create_scan_plan's handling of sortgrouprefs for physical tlists.
We should only run apply_pathtarget_labeling_to_tlist if CP_LABEL_TLIST
was specified, because only in that case has use_physical_tlist checked
that the labeling will succeed; otherwise we may get an "ORDER/GROUP BY
expression not found in targetlist" error.  (This subsumes the previous
test about gating_clauses, because we reset "flags" to zero earlier
if there are gating clauses to apply.)

The only known case in which a failure can occur is with a ProjectSet
path directly atop a table scan path, although it seems likely that there
are other cases or will be such in future.  This means that the failure
is currently only visible in the v10 branch: 9.6 didn't have ProjectSet,
while in v11 and HEAD, apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths for some weird
reason is using create_projection_path not apply_projection_to_path,
masking the problem because there's a ProjectionPath in between.

Nonetheless this code is clearly wrong on its own terms, so back-patch
to 9.6 where this logic was introduced.

Per report from Regina Obe.

ff4f889164 Fix bugs with degenerate window ORDER BY clauses in GROUPS/RANGE mode.
nodeWindowAgg.c failed to cope with the possibility that no ordering
columns are defined in the window frame for GROUPS mode or RANGE OFFSET
mode, leading to assertion failures or odd errors, as reported by Masahiko
Sawada and Lukas Eder.  In RANGE OFFSET mode, an ordering column is really
required, so add an Assert about that.  In GROUPS mode, the code would
work, except that the node initialization code wasn't in sync with the
execution code about when to set up tuplestore read pointers and spare
slots.  Fix the latter for consistency's sake (even though I think the
changes described below make the out-of-sync cases unreachable for now).

Per SQL spec, a single ordering column is required for RANGE OFFSET mode,
and at least one ordering column is required for GROUPS mode.  The parser
enforced the former but not the latter; add a check for that.

We were able to reach the no-ordering-column cases even with fully spec
compliant queries, though, because the planner would drop partitioning
and ordering columns from the generated plan if they were redundant with
earlier columns according to the redundant-pathkey logic, for instance
"PARTITION BY x ORDER BY y" in the presence of a "WHERE x=y" qual.
While in principle that's an optimization that could save some pointless
comparisons at runtime, it seems unlikely to be meaningful in the real
world.  I think this behavior was not so much an intentional optimization
as a side-effect of an ancient decision to construct the plan node's
ordering-column info by reverse-engineering the PathKeys of the input
path.  If we give up redundant-column removal then it takes very little
code to generate the plan node info directly from the WindowClause,
ensuring that we have the expected number of ordering columns in all
cases.  (If anyone does complain about this, the planner could perhaps
be taught to remove redundant columns only when it's safe to do so,
ie *not* in RANGE OFFSET mode.  But I doubt anyone ever will.)

With these changes, the WindowAggPath.winpathkeys field is not used for
anything anymore, so remove it.

The test cases added here are not actually very interesting given the
removal of the redundant-column-removal logic, but they would represent
important corner cases if anyone ever tries to put that back.

Tom Lane and Masahiko Sawada.  Back-patch to v11 where RANGE OFFSET
and GROUPS modes were added.

f2c587067a Rethink how to get float.h in old Windows API for isnan/isinf
We include <float.h> in every place that needs isnan(), because MSVC
used to require it.  However, since MSVC 2013 that's no longer necessary
(cf. commit cec8394b5c), so we can retire the inclusion to a
version-specific stanza in win32_port.h, where it doesn't need to
pollute random .c files.  The header is of course still needed in a few
places for other reasons.

I (Álvaro) removed float.h from a few more files than in Emre's original
patch.  This doesn't break the build in my system, but we'll see what
the buildfarm has to say about it all.

b6e3a3a492 Better handle pseudotypes as partition keys
We fail to handle polymorphic types properly when they are used as
partition keys: we were unnecessarily adding a RelabelType node on top,
which confuses code examining the nodes.  In particular, this makes
predtest.c-based partition pruning not to work, and ruleutils.c to emit
expressions that are uglier than needed.  Fix it by not adding RelabelType
when not needed.

In master/11 the new pruning code is separate so it doesn't suffer from
this problem, since we already fixed it (in essentially the same way) in
e5dcbb88a1, which also added a few tests; back-patch those tests to
pg10 also.  But since UPDATE/DELETE still uses predtest.c in pg11, this
change improves partitioning for those cases too.  Add tests for this.
The ruleutils.c behavior change is relevant in pg11/master too.

17b715c634 Add test case for EEOP_INNER_SYSVAR/EEOP_OUTER_SYSVAR executor opcodes.
The EEOP_INNER_SYSVAR and EEOP_OUTER_SYSVAR executor opcodes are not
exercised by normal queries, because setrefs.c will resolve the references
to system columns in the scan nodes already. Join nodes refer to them by
their position in the child node's target list, like user columns.

The only place where those opcodes are used, is in evaluating a trigger's
WHEN condition that references system columns. Trigger evaluation abuses
the INNER/OUTER Vars to refer to the OLD and NEW tuples. The code to handle
the opcodes is pretty straightforward, but it seems like a good idea to
have some test coverage for them, anyway, so that they don't get removed or
broken by accident.

3c64dcb1e3 Prevent references to invalid relation pages after fresh promotion
If a standby crashes after promotion before having completed its first
post-recovery checkpoint, then the minimal recovery point which marks
the LSN position where the cluster is able to reach consistency may be
set to a position older than the first end-of-recovery checkpoint while
all the WAL available should be replayed.  This leads to the instance
thinking that it contains inconsistent pages, causing a PANIC and a hard
instance crash even if all the WAL available has not been replayed for
certain sets of records replayed.  When in crash recovery,
minRecoveryPoint is expected to always be set to InvalidXLogRecPtr,
which forces the recovery to replay all the WAL available, so this
commit makes sure that the local copy of minRecoveryPoint from the
control file is initialized properly and stays as it is while crash
recovery is performed.  Once switching to archive recovery or if crash
recovery finishes, then the local copy minRecoveryPoint can be safely
updated.

Pavan Deolasee has reported and diagnosed the failure in the first
place, and the base fix idea to rely on the local copy of
minRecoveryPoint comes from Kyotaro Horiguchi, which has been expanded
into a full-fledged patch by me.  The test included in this commit has
been written by Álvaro Herrera and Pavan Deolasee, which I have modified
to make it faster and more reliable with sleep phases.

Backpatch down to all supported versions where the bug appears, aka 9.3
which is where the end-of-recovery checkpoint is not run by the startup
process anymore.  The test gets easily supported down to 10, still it
has been tested on all branches.

fc057b2b8f Remove dead code for temporary relations in partition planning
Since recent commit 1c7c317c, temporary relations cannot be mixed with
permanent relations within the same partition tree, and the same counts
for temporary relations created by other sessions, which the planner
simply discarded.  Instead be paranoid and issue an error, as those
should be blocked at definition time, at least for now.

At the same time, a test case is added to stress what has been moved
when expand_partitioned_rtentry gets called recursively but bumps on a
partitioned relation with no partitions which should be handled the same
way as the non-inheritance case.  This code may be reworked in a close
future, and covering this code path will limit surprises.

According to the SQL standard, the context of XMLTABLE's XPath
row_expression is the document node of the XML input document, not the
root node.  This becomes visible when a relative path rather than
absolute is used as row expression.  Absolute paths is what was used in
original tests and docs (and the most common form used in examples
throughout the interwebs), which explains why this wasn't noticed
before.

Other functions such as xpath() and xpath_exists() also have this
problem.  While not specified by the SQL standard, it would be pretty
odd to leave those functions to behave differently than XMLTABLE, so
change them too.  However, this is a backwards-incompatible change.

No backpatch, out of fear of breaking code depending on the original
broken behavior.

1c7c317cd9 Clarify use of temporary tables within partition trees
Since their introduction, partition trees have been a bit lossy
regarding temporary relations.  Inheritance trees respect the following
patterns:
1) a child relation can be temporary if the parent is permanent.
2) a child relation can be temporary if the parent is temporary.
3) a child relation cannot be permanent if the parent is temporary.
4) The use of temporary relations also imply that when both parent and
child need to be from the same sessions.

Partitions share many similar patterns with inheritance, however the
handling of the partition bounds make the situation a bit tricky for
case 1) as the partition code bases a lot of its lookup code upon
PartitionDesc which does not really look after relpersistence.  This
causes for example a temporary partition created by session A to be
visible by another session B, preventing this session B to create an
extra partition which overlaps with the temporary one created by A with
a non-intuitive error message.  There could be use-cases where mixing
permanent partitioned tables with temporary partitions make sense, but
that would be a new feature.  Partitions respect 2), 3) and 4) already.

It is a bit depressing to see those error checks happening in
MergeAttributes() whose purpose is different, but that's left as future
refactoring work.

Back-patch down to 10, which is where partitioning has been introduced,
except that default partitions do not apply there.  Documentation also
includes limitations related to the use of temporary tables with

b97a3465d7 Consider syntactic form when disambiguating function vs column reference.
Postgres has traditionally considered the syntactic forms f(x) and x.f
to be equivalent, allowing tricks such as writing a function and then
using it as though it were a computed-on-demand column.  However, our
behavior when both interpretations are feasible left something to be
desired: we always chose the column interpretation.  This could lead
to very surprising results, as in a recent bug report from Neil Conway.
It also created a dump-and-reload hazard, since what was a function
call in a dumped view could get interpreted as a column reference
at reload, if a matching column name had been added to the underlying
table since the view was created.

What seems better, in ambiguous situations, is to prefer the choice
matching the syntactic form of the reference.  This seems much less
astonishing in general, and it fixes the dump/reload hazard.

Although this could be called a bug fix, there have been few complaints
and there's some small risk of breaking applications that depend on the
old behavior, so no back-patch.  It does seem reasonable to slip it
into v11, though.

0dcf68e5a1 Fix some minor error-checking oversights in ParseFuncOrColumn().
Recent additions to ParseFuncOrColumn to make it reject non-procedure
functions in CALL were neither adequate nor documented.  Reorganize
the code to ensure uniform results for all the cases that should be
rejected.  Also, use ERRCODE_WRONG_OBJECT_TYPE for this case as well
as the converse case of a procedure in a non-CALL context.  The
original coding used ERRCODE_UNDEFINED_FUNCTION which seems wrong,
and is certainly inconsistent with the adjacent wrong-kind-of-routine
errors.

This reorganization also causes the checks for aggregate decoration with
a non-aggregate function to be made in the FUNCDETAIL_COERCION case;
that they were not is a long-standing oversight.

be3d90026a Fix run-time partition pruning code to handle NULL values properly.
The previous coding just ignored pruning constraints that compare a
partition key to a null-valued expression.  This is silly, since really
what we can do there is conclude that all partitions are rejected: the
pruning operator is known strict so the comparison must always fail.

This also fixes the logic to not ignore constisnull for a Const comparison
value.  That's probably an unreachable case, since the planner would
normally have simplified away a strict operator with a constant-null input.
But this code has no business assuming that.

73b7f48f78 Improve run-time partition pruning to handle any stable expression.
The initial coding of the run-time-pruning feature only coped with cases
where the partition key(s) are compared to Params.  That is a bit silly;
we can allow it to work with any non-Var-containing stable expression, as
long as we take special care with expressions containing PARAM_EXEC Params.
The code is hardly any longer this way, and it's considerably clearer
(IMO at least).  Per gripe from Pavel Stehule.

3a7cc727c7 Don't fall off the end of perl functions
This complies with the perlcritic policy
Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn, which is a severity 4 policy. Since we
only currently check at severity level 5, the policy is raised to that
level until we move to level 4 or lower, so that any new infringements
will be caught.

A small cosmetic piece of tidying of the pgperlcritic script is
included.

b86b7bfa3e Improve English wording of some other getObjectDescription() messages.
Print columns as "column C of <relation>" rather than "<relation> column
C".  This seems to read noticeably better in English, as evidenced by the
regression test output changes, and the code change also makes it possible
for translators to adjust the phrase order in other languages.

Also change the output for OCLASS_DEFAULT from "default for %s" to
"default value for %s".  This seems to read better and is also more
consistent with the output of, for instance, getObjectTypeDescription().

1a31baf61e Fix objectaddress.c code for publication relations.
getObjectDescription and getObjectIdentity failed to schema-qualify
the name of the published table, which is bad in getObjectDescription and
unforgivable in getObjectIdentity.  Actually, getObjectIdentity failed to
emit the table's name at all unless "objname" output is requested, which
accidentally works for some (all?) extant callers but is clearly not the
intended API.  Somebody had also not gotten the memo that the output of
getObjectIdentity is not to be translated.

To fix getObjectDescription, I made it call getRelationDescription, which
required refactoring the translatable string for the case, but is more
future-proof in case we ever publish relations that aren't plain tables.
While at it, I made the English output look like "publication of table X
in publication Y"; the added "of" seems to me to make it read much better.

Back-patch to v10 where publications were introduced.

056f52d9c3 Properly schema-qualify additional object types in getObjectDescription().
Collations, conversions, extended statistics objects (in >= v10),
and all four types of text search objects have schema-qualified names.
getObjectDescription() ignored that and would emit just the base name of
the object, potentially producing wrong or at least highly misleading
output.  Fix it to add the schema name whenever the object is not "visible"
in the current search path, as is the rule for other schema-qualifiable
object types.

Although in common situations the output won't change, this seems to me
(tgl) to be a bug worthy of back-patching, hence do so.

d1fc750b51 Make numeric power() handle NaNs according to the modern POSIX spec.
In commit 6bdf1303b, we ensured that power()/^ for float8 would honor
the NaN behaviors specified by POSIX standards released in this century,
ie NaN ^ 0 = 1 and 1 ^ NaN = 1.  However, numeric_power() was not
touched and continued to follow the once-common behavior that every
case involving NaN input produces NaN.  For consistency, let's switch
the numeric behavior to the modern spec in the same release that ensures
that behavior for float8.

(Note that while 6bdf1303b was initially back-patched, we later undid
that, concluding that any behavioral change should appear only in v11.)

2efc924180 Detoast plpgsql variables if they might live across a transaction boundary.
Up to now, it's been safe for plpgsql to store TOAST pointers in its
variables because the ActiveSnapshot for whatever query called the plpgsql
function will surely protect such TOAST values from being vacuumed away,
even if the owning table rows are committed dead.  With the introduction of
procedures, that assumption is no longer good in "non atomic" executions
of plpgsql code.  We adopt the slightly brute-force solution of detoasting
all TOAST pointers at the time they are stored into variables, if we're in
a non-atomic context, just in case the owning row goes away.

Some care is needed to avoid long-term memory leaks, since plpgsql tends
to run with CurrentMemoryContext pointing to its call-lifespan context,
but we shouldn't assume that no memory is leaked by heap_tuple_fetch_attr.
In plpgsql proper, we can do the detoasting work in the "eval_mcontext".

Most of the code thrashing here is due to the need to add this capability
to expandedrecord.c as well as plpgsql proper.  In expandedrecord.c,
we can't assume that the caller's context is short-lived, so make use of
the short-term sub-context that was already invented for checking domain
constraints.  In view of this repurposing, it seems good to rename that
variable and associated code from "domain_check_cxt" to "short_term_cxt".
