Previously, when considering LIMIT pushdown, postgres_fdw failed to
check whether the query has this clause, which led to pushing false
LIMIT clauses, causing incorrect results.
This clause has been supported since v13, so we need to do a
remote-version check before deciding that it will be safe to push such a
clause, but we do not currently have a way to do the check (without
accessing the remote server); disable pushing such a clause for now.
Oversight in commit 357889eb1. Back-patch to v13, where that commit
added the support.

ReorderBufferImmediateInvalidation() executes invalidation messages in
an aborted transaction. However, RelationFlushRelation sometimes
required a valid resource owner, to temporarily increment the refcount
of the relache entry. Commit b8bff07daa worked around that in the main
subtransaction abort function, AbortSubTransaction(), but missed this
similar case in ReorderBufferImmediateInvalidation().
To fix, introduce a separate function to invalidate a relcache
entry. It does the same thing as RelationClearRelation(rebuild==true)
does when outside a transaction, but can be called without
incrementing the refcount.
Add regression test. Before this fix, it failed with:

5ae2087202 implemented a cross-page unique constraint check by loading
the right sibling to the BtreeCheckState.target variable. This is wrong,
because bt_target_page_check() shouldn't change the target page. Also,
BtreeCheckState.target shouldn't be changed alone without
BtreeCheckState.targetblock.
However, the above didn't cause any visible bugs for the following reasons.
1. We do a cross-page unique constraint check only for leaf index pages.
2. The only way target page get accessed after a cross-page unique constraint
check is loading of the lowkey.
3. The only place lowkey is used is bt_child_highkey_check(), and that applies
only to non-leafs.
The reasons above don't diminish the fact that changing BtreeCheckState.target
for a cross-page unique constraint check is wrong. This commit changes this
check to temporarily store the right sibling to the local variable.

Run pgindent, pgperltidy, and reformat-dat-files.
The pgindent part of this is pretty small, consisting mainly of
fixing up self-inflicted formatting damage from patches that
hadn't bothered to add their new typedefs to typedefs.list.
In order to keep it from making anything worse, I manually added
a dozen or so typedefs that appeared in the existing typedefs.list
but not in the buildfarm's list. Perhaps we should formalize that,
or better find a way to get those typedefs into the automatic list.
pgperltidy is as opinionated as always, and reformat-dat-files too.

On other Windows build farm animals it is already skipped because they
don't use UTF-8 encoding. On "hamerkop", UTF-8 is used, and then the
test fails.
It is not clear to me (a non-Windows person looking only at buildfarm
evidence) whether Windows is less sophisticated than other OSes and
doesn't know how to downcase Turkish İ with the standard Unicode
database, or if it is more sophisticated than other systems and uses
locale-specific behavior like ICU does.
Whichever the reason, the result is the same: we need to skip the test
on Windows, just as we already do for ICU, at least until a
Windows-savvy developer comes up with a better idea. The technique for
detecting the OS is borrowed from collate.windows.win1252.sql.
This was anticipated by commit c2e8bd27, but the problem only surfaced
when Windows build farm animals started using Meson.

As explained in 4d916dd876, the test instability is caused by delayed
cleanup of deleted rows. This commit removes the DELETE, stabilizing the
test without accidentally disabling parallel builds.
The intent of the delete however was to produce empty ranges, and test
that the parallel index build populates those correctly. But there's
another way to create empty ranges - partial indexes, which does not
rely on cleanup of deleted rows.

use appendStringInfoChar() when appending a single character rather than

When testing buffer pool logic, it is useful to be able to evict
arbitrary blocks. This function can be used in SQL queries over the
pg_buffercache view to set up a wide range of buffer pool states. Of
course, buffer mappings might change concurrently so you might evict a
block other than the one you had in mind, and another session might
bring it back in at any time. That's OK for the intended purpose of
setting up developer testing scenarios, and more complicated interlocking
schemes to give stronger guararantees about that would likely be less
flexible for actual testing work anyway. Superuser-only.

Presently, the archiver process restarts when an archive callback
ERRORs. To avoid this, archive module authors can use sigsetjmp(),
manage a memory context, etc., but that requires a lot of extra
code that will likely look roughly the same between modules. This
commit adds basic archive callback ERROR handling to pgarch.c so
that module authors won't ordinarily need to worry about this.
While this built-in handler attempts to clean up anything that an
archive module could conceivably have left behind, it is possible
that some modules are doing unexpected things that require
additional cleanup. Module authors should be sure to do any extra
required cleanup in a PG_CATCH block within the archiving callback.
The archiving callback is now called in a short-lived memory
context that the archiver process resets between invocations. If a
module requires longer-lived storage, it must maintain its own
memory context.
Thanks to these changes, the basic_archive module can be greatly
simplified.

Avoid the problem by using SET LOCAL instead.
Overall, this test is not ideal: 10ms could be shorter than the time to
have sent the query to the "remote" server, so it's possible that on
some machines this test doesn't actually witness a remote query being

Since 82a4edabd27 we can bulk extend relations. The bulk relation extension
logic has a heuristic component. Normally the heurstic does not trigger in the
occasionally-failing test case, as the relation is only extended once. But
with very small shared_buffers the limits for the number of buffers pinned at
once prevent the extension from happening at once. With the second "bulk"
extension, the heuristic kicks in, and the relation ends up one block bigger.
That's ok from a correctness perspective, but changes the results of the test
query due to one additional block.
We discussed a few more expansive fixes, but for now have decided to avoid
this by making the table a bit smaller.

Backpatch: 16-, where the new relation extension logic was added
Until now, UNION queries have often been suboptimal as the planner has
only ever considered using an Append node and making the results unique
by either using a Hash Aggregate, or by Sorting the entire Append result
and running it through the Unique operator. Both of these methods
always require reading all rows from the union subqueries.
Here we adjust the union planner so that it can request that each subquery
produce results in target list order so that these can be Merge Appended
together and made unique with a Unique node. This can improve performance
significantly as the union child can make use of the likes of btree
indexes and/or Merge Joins to provide the top-level UNION with presorted
input. This is especially good if the top-level UNION contains a LIMIT
node that limits the output rows to a small subset of the unioned rows as
cheap startup plans can be used.

Historically we've printed SubPlan expression nodes as "(SubPlan N)",
which is pretty uninformative. Trying to reproduce the original SQL
for the subquery is still as impractical as before, and would be
mighty verbose as well. However, we can still do better than that.
Displaying the "testexpr" when present, and adding a keyword to
indicate the SubLinkType, goes a long way toward showing what's
really going on.
In addition, this patch gets rid of EXPLAIN's use of "$n" to represent
subplan and initplan output Params. Instead we now print "(SubPlan
N).colX" or "(InitPlan N).colX" to represent the X'th output column
of that subplan. This eliminates confusion with the use of "$n" to
represent PARAM_EXTERN Params, and it's useful for the first part of
this change because it eliminates needing some other indication of
which subplan is referenced by a SubPlan that has a testexpr.
In passing, this adds simple regression test coverage of the
ROWCOMPARE_SUBLINK code paths, which were entirely unburdened
by testing before.

Currently, pg_visibility computes its xid horizon using the
GetOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). The problem is that this horizon can
sometimes go backward. That can lead to reporting false errors.
In order to fix that, this commit implements a new function
GetStrictOldestNonRemovableTransactionId(). This function computes the xid
horizon, which would be guaranteed to be newer or equal to any xid horizon
computed before.
We have to do the following to achieve this.
1. Ignore processes xmin's, because they consider connection to other databases
that were ignored before.
2. Ignore KnownAssignedXids, because they are not database-aware. At the same
time, the primary could compute its horizons database-aware.
3. Ignore walsender xmin, because it could go backward if some replication
connections don't use replication slots.
As a result, we're using only currently running xids to compute the horizon.
Surely these would significantly sacrifice accuracy. But we have to do so to
avoid reporting false errors.

with Robert Haas and Tom Lane.

For UNION ALL queries where a union child query contained a foreign
table, if the targetlist of that query contained a constant, and the
top-level query performed an ORDER BY which contained the column for the
constant value, then postgres_fdw would find the EquivalenceMember with
the Const and then try to produce an ORDER BY containing that Const.
This caused problems with INT typed Consts as these could appear to be
requests to order by an ordinal column position rather than the constant
value. This could lead to either an error such as:
ERROR: ORDER BY position <int const> is not in select list
or worse, if the constant value is a valid column, then we could just
sort by the wrong column altogether.
Here we fix this issue by just not including these Consts in the ORDER
BY clause.

contrib/tablefunc connectby() checks both type OID and typmod for
its output columns while crosstab() only checks type OID. Fix that
by makeing the crosstab() check look more like the connectby() check.

These messages were fairly confusing, and didn't match the
column names used in the SGML docs. Try to improve that.
Also use error codes more specific than ERRCODE_SYNTAX_ERROR.

Use GUC_ACTION_SAVE rather than GUC_ACTION_SET, necessary for working
with parallel query.
Now that the call requires more arguments, wrap the call in a new
function to avoid code duplication and offer a place for a comment.

While executing maintenance operations (ANALYZE, CLUSTER, REFRESH
MATERIALIZED VIEW, REINDEX, or VACUUM), set search_path to
'pg_catalog, pg_temp' to prevent inconsistent behavior.
Functions that are used for functional indexes, in index expressions,
or in materialized views and depend on a different search path must be
declared with CREATE FUNCTION ... SET search_path='...'.
This change was previously committed as 05e1737351, then reverted in
commit 2fcc7ee7af because it was too late in the cycle.
Preparation for the MAINTAIN privilege, which was previously reverted
due to search_path manipulation hazards.
