We have an assertion to ensure that a command tag has been assigned by
the time we're done executing, but if we happen to execute a command
with no queries, the assertion would fail. Per discussion, rather than
contort things to get a tag assigned, just remove the assertion.
Oversight in 2f9661311b. That commit also retained a comment that
explained logic that had been adjacent to it but diffused into various
places, leaving none apt to keep part of the comment. Remove that part,

Because not every path through JsonbIteratorNext() sets val->type,
some compilers complain that compareJsonbContainers() is comparing
possibly-uninitialized values. The paths that don't set it return
WJB_DONE, WJB_END_ARRAY, or WJB_END_OBJECT, so it's clear by
manual inspection that the "(ra == rb)" code path is safe, and
indeed we aren't seeing warnings about that. But the (ra != rb)
case is much less obviously safe. In Assert-enabled builds it
seems that the asserts rejecting WJB_END_ARRAY and WJB_END_OBJECT
persuade gcc 15.x not to warn, which makes little sense because
it's impossible to believe that the compiler can prove of its
own accord that ra/rb aren't WJB_DONE here. (In fact they never
will be, so the code isn't wrong, but why is there no warning?)
Without Asserts, the appearance of warnings is quite unsurprising.
We discussed fixing this by converting those two Asserts into
pg_assume, but that seems not very satisfactory when it's so unclear
why the compiler is or isn't warning: the warning could easily
reappear with some other compiler version. Let's fix it in a less
magical, more future-proof way by changing JsonbIteratorNext()
so that it always does set val->type. The cost of that should be
pretty negligible, and it makes the function's API spec less squishy.

getid() and putid(), which parse and deparse role names within ACL
input/output, applied isalnum() to see if a character within a role
name requires quoting. They did this even for non-ASCII characters,
which is problematic because the results would depend on encoding,
locale, and perhaps even platform. So it's possible that putid()
could elect not to quote some string that, later in some other
environment, getid() will decide is not a valid identifier, causing
dump/reload or similar failures.
To fix this in a way that won't risk interoperability problems
with unpatched versions, make getid() treat any non-ASCII as a
legitimate identifier character (hence not requiring quotes),
while making putid() treat any non-ASCII as requiring quoting.
We could remove the resulting excess quoting once we feel that
no unpatched servers remain in the wild, but that'll be years.
A lesser problem is that getid() did the wrong thing with an input
consisting of just two double quotes (""). That has to represent an
empty string, but getid() read it as a single double quote instead.
The case cannot arise in the normal course of events, since we don't
allow empty-string role names. But let's fix it while we're here.
Although we've not heard field reports of problems with non-ASCII
role names, there's clearly a hazard there, so back-patch to all
supported versions.

max_slot_wal_keep_size and idle_replication_slot_timeout.

pl/pgsql's notion of an "expression" is very broad, encompassing
any SQL SELECT query that returns a single column and no more than
one row. So there are cases, for example evaluation of an aggregate
function, where the query involves significant work and it'd be useful
to run it with parallel workers. This used to be possible, but
commits 3eea7a0c9 et al unintentionally disabled it.
The simplest fix is to make exec_eval_expr() pass maxtuples = 0
rather than 2 to exec_run_select(). This avoids the new rule that
we will never use parallelism when a nonzero "count" limit is passed
to ExecutorRun(). (Note that the pre-3eea7a0c9 behavior was indeed
unsafe, so reverting that rule is not in the cards.) The reason
for passing 2 before was that exec_eval_expr() will throw an error
if it gets more than one returned row, so we figured that as soon
as we have two rows we know that will happen and we might as well
stop running the query. That choice was cost-free when it was made;
but disabling parallelism is far from cost-free, so now passing 2
amounts to optimizing a failure case at the expense of useful cases.
An expression query that can return more than one row is certainly
broken. People might now need to wait a bit longer to discover such
breakage; but hopefully few will use enormously expensive cases as
their first test of new pl/pgsql logic.

Commits 8319e5cb5 et al missed the fact that ATPostAlterTypeCleanup
contains three calls to ATPostAlterTypeParse, and the other two
also need protection against passing a relid that we don't yet
have lock on. Add similar logic to those code paths, and add
some test cases demonstrating the need for it.
In v18 and master, the test cases demonstrate that there's a
behavioral discrepancy between stored generated columns and virtual
generated columns: we disallow changing the expression of a stored
column if it's used in any composite-type columns, but not that of
a virtual column. Since the expression isn't actually relevant to
either sort of composite-type usage, this prohibition seems
unnecessary; but changing it is a matter for separate discussion.
For now we are just documenting the existing behavior.

When decompressing some input data, the calculation for the initial
starting point and the initial size were incorrect, potentially leading
to failures when decompressing contents with LZ4. These initialization
points are fixed in this commit, bringing the logic closer to what
exists for gzip and zstd.
The contents of the compressed data is clear (for example backups taken
with LZ4 can still be decompressed with a "lz4" command), only the
decompression part reading the input data was impacted by this issue.
This code path impacts pg_basebackup and pg_verifybackup, which can use
the LZ4 decompression routines with an archive streamer, or any tools
that try to use the archive streamers in src/fe_utils/.
The issue is easier to reproduce with files that have a low-compression
rate, like ones filled with random data, for a size of at least 512kB,
but this could happen with anything as long as it is stored in a data
folder. Some tests are added based on this idea, with a file filled
with random bytes grabbed from the backend, written at the root of the
data folder. This is proving good enough to reproduce the original
problem.

Sometimes a table's constraint may depend on a column of another
table, so that we have to update the constraint when changing the
referenced column's type. We need to have lock on the constraint's
table to do that. ATPostAlterTypeCleanup believed that this case
was only possible for FOREIGN KEY constraints, but it's wrong at
least for CHECK and EXCLUDE constraints; and in general, we'd
probably need exclusive lock to alter any sort of constraint.
So just remove the contype check and acquire lock for any other
table. This prevents a "you don't have lock" assertion failure,
though no ill effect is observed in production builds.
We'll error out later anyway because we don't presently support
physically altering column types within stored composite columns.
But the catalog-munging is basically all there, so we may as well
make that part work.

This fixes two issues with the handling of VacuumParams in vacuum_rel().
This code path has the idea to change the passed-in pointer of
VacuumParams for the "truncate" and "index_cleanup" options for the
relation worked on, impacting the two following scenarios where
incorrect options may be used because a VacuumParams pointer is shared
across multiple relations:
- Multiple relations in a single VACUUM command.
- TOAST relations vacuumed with their main relation.
The problem is avoided by providing to the two callers of vacuum_rel()
copies of VacuumParams, before the pointer is updated for the "truncate"
and "index_cleanup" options.
The refactoring of the VACUUM option and parameters done in 0d83138974
did not introduce an issue, but it has encouraged the problem we are
dealing with in this commit, with b84dbc8eb8 for "truncate" and
a96c41feec for "index_cleanup" that have been added a couple of years
after the initial refactoring. HEAD will be improved with a different
patch that hardens the uses of VacuumParams across the tree. This
cannot be backpatched as it introduces an ABI breakage.
The backend portion of the patch has been authored by Nathan, while I
have implemented the tests. The tests rely on injection points to check
the option values, making them faster, more reliable than the tests
originally proposed by Shihao, and they also provide more coverage.
This part can only be backpatched down to v17.

The logical replication launcher process would sometimes sleep
for as much as 3 minutes before noticing that it is supposed
to launch a new worker. This could happen if
(1) WaitForReplicationWorkerAttach absorbed a process latch wakeup
that was meant to cause ApplyLauncherMain to do work, or
(2) logicalrep_worker_launch reported failure, either because of
resource limits or because the new worker terminated immediately.
In case (2), the expected behavior is that we retry the launch after
wal_retrieve_retry_interval, but that didn't reliably happen.
It's not clear how often such conditions would occur in the field,
but in our subscription test suite they are somewhat common,
especially in tests that exercise cases that cause quick worker
failure. That causes the tests to take substantially longer than
they ought to do on typical setups.
To fix (1), make WaitForReplicationWorkerAttach re-set the latch
before returning if it cleared it while looping. To fix (2), ensure
that we reduce wait_time to no more than wal_retrieve_retry_interval
when logicalrep_worker_launch reports failure. In passing, fix a
couple of perhaps-hypothetical race conditions, e.g. examining
worker->in_use without a lock.
Backpatch to v16. Problem (2) didn't exist before commit 5a3a95385
because the previous code always set wait_time to
wal_retrieve_retry_interval when launching a worker, regardless of
success or failure of the launch. That behavior also greatly
mitigated problem (1), so I'm not excited about adapting the remainder
of the patch to the substantially-different code in older branches.

If vacuum fails to prune a tuple killed before OldestXmin, it will
decide to freeze its xmax and later error out in pre-freeze checks.
Add a test reproducing this scenario to the recovery suite which creates
a table on a primary, updates the table to generate dead tuples for
vacuum, and then, during the vacuum, uses a replica to force
GlobalVisState->maybe_needed on the primary to move backwards and
precede the value of OldestXmin set at the beginning of vacuuming the
table.
This test is coverage for a case fixed in 83c39a1f7f. The test was
originally committed to master in aa607980ae but later reverted in
efcbb76efe due to test instability.
The test requires multiple index passes. In Postgres 17+, vacuum uses a
TID store for the dead TIDs that is very space efficient. With the old
minimum maintenance_work_mem of 1 MB, it required a large number of dead
rows to generate enough dead TIDs to force multiple index
vacuuming passes. Once the source code changes were made to allow a
minimum maintenance_work_mem value of 64kB, the test could be made much
faster and more stable.

Make width_bucket_numeric's comment more like that for
width_bucket_float8, in particular noting that infinite
bounds are rejected (since they became possible in v14).

While choosing an autogenerated name for an index, look for
pre-existing relations using a SnapshotDirty snapshot, instead of the
previous behavior that considered only committed-good pg_class rows.
This allows us to detect and avoid conflicts against indexes that are
still being built.
It's still possible to fail due to a race condition, but the window
is now just the amount of time that it takes DefineIndex to validate
all its parameters, call smgrcreate(), and enter the index's pg_class
row. Formerly the race window covered the entire time needed to
create and fill an index, which could be very long if the table is
large. Worse, if the conflicting index creation is part of a larger
transaction, it wouldn't be visible till COMMIT.
So this isn't a complete solution, but it should greatly ameliorate
the problem, and the patch is simple enough to be back-patchable.
It might at some point be useful to do the same for pg_constraint
entries (cf. ChooseConstraintName, ConstraintNameExists, and related
functions). However, in the absence of field complaints, I'll leave
that alone for now. The relation-name test should be good enough for
index-based constraints, while foreign-key constraints seem to be okay
since they require exclusive locks to create.

The TAP tests that verify logical and physical replication slot behavior
during checkpoints (046_checkpoint_logical_slot.pl and
047_checkpoint_physical_slot.pl) inserted two batches of 2 million rows each,
generating approximately 520 MB of WAL. On slow machines, or when compiled
with '-DRELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE -DCATCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE', this caused the
tests to run for 8-9 minutes and occasionally time out, as seen on the
buildfarm animal prion.
This commit modifies the mentioned tests to utilize the $node->advance_wal()
function, thereby reducing runtime. Once we do not use the generated data,
the proposed function is a good alternative, which cuts the total wall-clock
run time.
While here, remove superfluous '\n' characters from several note() calls;
these appeared literally in the build-farm logs and looked odd. Also, remove
excessive 'shared_preload_libraries' GUC from the config and add a check for
'injection_points' extension availability.

In version 17 we added support for cross-partition EXCLUDE
constraints, as long as they included all partition key columns and
compared them with equality (see 8c852ba9a4). I updated the docs for
exclusion constraints, but I missed that the docs for CREATE TABLE
still said that they were not supported. This commit fixes that.
