Replay of XLOG_BTREE_VACUUM during Hot Standby was previously thought to
require complex interlocking that matched the requirements on the
master. This required an O(N) operation that became a significant
problem with large indexes, causing replication delays of seconds or in
some cases minutes while the XLOG_BTREE_VACUUM was replayed.
This commit skips the “pin scan” that was previously required, by
observing in detail when and how it is safe to do so, with full
documentation. The pin scan is skipped only in replay; the VACUUM code
path on master is not touched here.
No tests included. Manual tests using an additional patch to view WAL records
and their timing have shown the change in WAL records and their handling has
successfully reduced replication delay.
This is a back-patch of commits 687f2cd7a015, 3e4b7d87988f, b60284261375
by Simon Riggs, to branches 9.4 and 9.5. No further backpatch is
possible because this depends on catalog scans being MVCC. I (Álvaro)
additionally updated a slight problem in the README, which explains why
this touches the 9.6 and master branches.
On Windows, libc will mask \r\n line endings for us, since we read the
password file in text mode. But that doesn't happen on Unix. People
who share password files across both systems might have \r\n line endings
in a file they use on Unix, so as a convenience, ignore trailing \r.
Per gripe from Josh Berkus.
In passing, put the existing check for empty line somewhere where it's
actually useful, ie after stripping the newline not before.

The CatalogSnapshot was not plugged into SnapshotResetXmin()'s accounting
for whether MyPgXact->xmin could be cleared or advanced. In normal
transactions this was masked by the fact that the transaction snapshot
would be older, but during backend startup and certain utility commands
it was possible to re-use the CatalogSnapshot after MyPgXact->xmin had
been cleared, meaning that recently-deleted rows could be pruned even
though this snapshot could still see them, causing unexpected catalog
lookup failures. This effect appears to be the explanation for a recent
failure on buildfarm member piculet.
To fix, add the CatalogSnapshot to the RegisteredSnapshots heap whenever
it is valid.
In the previous logic, it was possible for the CatalogSnapshot to remain
valid across waits for client input, but with this change that would mean
it delays advance of global xmin in cases where it did not before. To
avoid possibly causing new table-bloat problems with clients that sit idle
for long intervals, add code to invalidate the CatalogSnapshot before
waiting for client input. (When the backend is busy, it's unlikely that
the CatalogSnapshot would be the oldest snap for very long, so we don't
worry about forcing early invalidation of it otherwise.)
In passing, remove the CatalogSnapshotStale flag in favor of using
"CatalogSnapshot != NULL" to represent validity, as we do for the other
special snapshots in snapmgr.c. And improve some obsolete comments.
No regression test because I don't know a deterministic way to cause this
failure. But the stress test shown in the original discussion provokes
"cache lookup failed for relation 1255" within a few dozen seconds for me.
Back-patch to 9.4 where MVCC catalog scans were introduced. (Note: it's
quite easy to produce similar failures with the same test case in branches
before 9.4. But MVCC catalog scans were supposed to fix that.)

For a very long time, pltcl's spi_exec and spi_execp commands have had
a behavior of storing the current row number as an element of output
arrays, but this was never documented. Fix that.
For an equally long time, pltcl_trigger_handler had a behavior of silently
ignoring ".tupno" as an output column name, evidently so that the result
of spi_exec could be used directly as a trigger result tuple. Not sure
how useful that really is, but in any case it's bad that it would break
attempts to use ".tupno" as an actual column name. We can fix it by not
checking for ".tupno" until after we check for a column name match. This
comports with the effective behavior of spi_exec[p] that ".tupno" is only
magic when you don't have an actual column named that.
In passing, wordsmith the description of returning modified tuples from
a pltcl trigger.
Noted while working on Jim Nasby's patch to support composite results
from pltcl. The inability to return trigger tuples using ".tupno" as
a column name is a bug, so back-patch to all supported branches.
The workaround the IANA guys chose to get rid of the clang warning

Go back to the previous solution, ie, remove the useless comparison

it's not useless because ptrdiff_t is wider than size_t. But the whole

for any sane estimate of the amount of data that zic will ever be asked
to work with.)
Also, s/lineno/lineno_t/g, because if we accept their decision to start

This patch absorbs some unreleased fixes for symlink manipulation bugs
introduced in tzcode 2016g. Ordinarily I'd wait around for a released
version, but in this case it seems like we could do with extra testing,
in particular checking whether it works in EDB's VMware build environment.
This corresponds to commit aec59156abbf8472ba201b6c7ca2592f9c10e077 in

Per a report from Sandeep Thakkar, building in an environment where hard
links are not supported in the timezone data installation directory failed,
because upstream code refactoring had broken the case of symlinking from an
existing symlink. Further experimentation also showed that the symlinks
were sometimes made incorrectly, with too many or too few "../"'s in the
symlink contents.

tsquery_rewrite() tries to find matches to subsets of AND/OR conditions;
for example, in the query 'a | b | c' the substitution subquery 'a | c'
should match and lead to replacement of the first and third items.
That's fine, but the matching algorithm apparently takes about O(2^N)
for an N-clause query (I say "apparently" because the code is also both
unintelligible and uncommented). We could probably do better than that
even without any extra assumptions --- but actually, we know that the
subclauses are sorted, indeed are depending on that elsewhere in this very
same function. So we can just scan the two lists a single time to detect
matches, as though we were doing a merge join.
Also do a re-flattening call (QTNTernary()) in tsquery_rewrite_query, just
to make sure that the tree fits the expectations of the next search cycle.
I didn't try to devise a test case for this, but I'm pretty sure that the
oversight could have led to failure to match in some cases where a match
would be expected.
Improve comments, and also stick a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into
dofindsubquery, just in case it's still too slow for somebody.

QTNTernary() contains logic to flatten, eg, '(a & b) & c' into 'a & b & c',
which is all well and good, but it tries to do that to NOT nodes as well,
so that '!!a' gets changed to '!a'. Explicitly restrict the conversion to
be done only on AND and OR nodes, and add a test case illustrating the bug.
In passing, provide some comments for the sadly naked functions in
tsquery_util.c, and simplify some baroque logic in QTNFree(), which
I think may have been leaking some items it intended to free.

If a restartpoint flushed no dirty buffers, it could fail to update
the minimum recovery point, leading to a minimum recovery point prior
to the starting REDO location. perform_base_backup() would interpret
that as meaning that no WAL files at all needed to be included in the
backup, failing an internal sanity check. To fix, have restartpoints
always update the minimum recovery point to just after the checkpoint
record itself, so that the file (or files) containing the checkpoint
record will always be included in the backup.

The code to change the deferrability properties of a foreign-key constraint
updated all the associated triggers to match; but a moment's examination of
the code that creates those triggers in the first place shows that only
some of them should track the constraint's deferrability properties. This
leads to odd failures in subsequent exercise of the foreign key, as the
triggers are fired at the wrong times. Fix that, and add a regression test
comparing the trigger properties produced by ALTER CONSTRAINT with those
you get by creating the constraint as-intended to begin with.

I broke this in commit f3094920a. Apparently it's dead code anyway,
at least as far as our buildfarm is concerned (and the upstream IANA
code doesn't worry at all about symlink() not being present).
But as long as the rest of our code is willing to guard against not
having symlink(), this should too. Noted while investigating a
tangentially-related complaint from Sandeep Thakkar.
Back-patch to keep branches in sync.
Despite the argumentation I wrote in commit 7a2fe85b0, it's unsafe to do
this, because in corner cases it's possible for HeapTupleSatisfiesSelf
to try to set hint bits on the target tuple; and at least since 8.2 we
have required the buffer content lock to be held while setting hint bits.
The added regression test exercises one such corner case. Unpatched, it
causes an assertion failure in assert-enabled builds, or otherwise would
cause a hint bit change in a buffer we don't hold lock on, which given
the right race condition could result in checksum failures or other data
consistency problems. The odds of a problem in the field are probably
pretty small, but nonetheless back-patch to all supported branches.

With track_io_timing = on, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) will emit fields

generalize that to convert anything that isn't a valid XML name character,
viz letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, and periods. We could just
reject slashes, which would run a bit faster. But the fact that this went

next creative violation, so let's make it a permanent fix.

IANA got rid of the really silly "abbreviation" and replaced it with one
that's only moderately silly. But it's still pointless, so keep on not
showing it.
DST law changes in Turkey. Historical corrections for America/Los_Angeles,
Europe/Kirov, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Samara, and Europe/Ulyanovsk.
Rename Asia/Rangoon to Asia/Yangon, with a backward compatibility link.
The IANA crew continue their campaign to replace invented time zone
abbrevations with numeric GMT offsets. This update changes numerous zones
in Antarctica and the former Soviet Union, for instance Antarctica/Casey
now reports "+08" not "AWST" in the pg_timezone_names view. I kept these
abbreviations in the tznames/ data files, however, so that we will still
accept them for input. (We may want to start trimming those files someday,
but today is not that day.)
An exception is that since IANA no longer claims that "AMT" is in use
in Armenia for GMT+4, I replaced it in the Default file with GMT-4,
corresponding to Amazon Time which is in use in South America. It may be
that that meaning is also invented and IANA will drop it in a future
update; but for now, it seems silly to give pride of place to a meaning
not traceable to IANA over one that is.
When a relation is truncated, it is important that the FSM is truncated as
well. Otherwise, after recovery, the FSM can return a page that has been
truncated away, leading to errors like:
ERROR: could not read block 28991 in file "base/16390/572026": read only 0
of 8192 bytes
We were using MarkBufferDirtyHint() to dirty the buffer holding the last
remaining page of the FSM, but during recovery, that might in fact not
dirty the page, and the FSM update might be lost.
To fix, use the stronger MarkBufferDirty() function. MarkBufferDirty()
requires us to do WAL-logging ourselves, to protect from a torn page, if
checksumming is enabled.
Also fix an oversight in visibilitymap_truncate: it also needs to WAL-log
when checksumming is enabled.

Backpatch to 9.3, where we got data checksums.
CommandId is declared as uint32, and values up to 4G are indeed legal.
cidout() handles them properly by treating the value as unsigned int.
But cidin() was just using atoi(), which has platform-dependent behavior
for values outside the range of signed int, as reported by Bart Lengkeek
in bug #14379. Use strtoul() instead, as xidin() does.
In passing, make some purely cosmetic changes to make xidin/xidout
look more like cidin/cidout; the former didn't have a monopoly on
best practice IMO.
Neither xidin nor cidin make any attempt to throw error for invalid input.
I didn't change that here, and am not sure it's worth worrying about
since neither is really a user-facing type. The point is just to ensure
that indubitably-valid inputs work as expected.
It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

bitshiftright() and bitshiftleft() would recursively call each other
infinitely if the user passed INT_MIN for the shift amount, due to integer
overflow in negating the shift amount. To fix, clamp to -VARBITMAXLEN.
That doesn't change the results since any shift distance larger than the
input bit string's length produces an all-zeroes result.
Also fix some places that seemed inadequately paranoid about input typmods
exceeding VARBITMAXLEN. While a typmod accepted by anybit_typmodin() will
certainly be much less than that, at least some of these spots are
reachable with user-chosen integer values.

It's not good for an inherited child constraint to be marked connoinherit;
that would result in the constraint not propagating to grandchild tables,
if any are created later. The code mostly prevented this from happening
but there was one case that was missed.
This is somewhat related to commit e55a946a8, which also tightened checks
on constraint merging. Hence, back-patch to 9.2 like that one. This isn't
so much because there's a concrete feature-related reason to stop there,
as to avoid having more distinct behaviors than we have to in this area.

Even if Linux's mmap() is okay with a partial-hugepage request, munmap()
is not, as reported by Chris Richards. Therefore it behooves us to try
a bit harder to find out the actual hugepage size, instead of assuming
that we can skate by with a guess.
For the moment, just look into /proc/meminfo to find out the default
hugepage size, and use that. Later, on kernels that support requests
for nondefault sizes, we might try to consider other alternatives.
But that smells more like a new feature than a bug fix, especially if
we want to provide any way for the DBA to control it, so leave it for
another day.
I set this up to allow easy addition of platform-specific code for
non-Linux platforms, if needed; but right now there are no reports
suggesting that we need to work harder on other platforms.

Fix detaching of the mmap'd segment to have its own on_shmem_exit callback,
rather than piggybacking on the one for detaching from the SysV segment.
That was confusing, and given the distance between the two attach calls,
it was trouble waiting to happen.
Make the detaching calls idempotent by clearing AnonymousShmem to show
we've already unmapped. I spent quite a bit of time yesterday trying
to find a path that would allow the munmap()'s to be done twice, and
while I did not succeed, it seems silly that there's even a question.
Make the #ifdef logic less confusing by separating "do we want to use
anonymous shmem" from EXEC_BACKEND. Even though there's no current
scenario where those conditions are different, it is not helpful for
different places in the same file to be testing EXEC_BACKEND for what
are fundamentally different reasons.
Don't do on_exit_reset() in StartBackgroundWorker(). At best that's
useless (InitPostmasterChild would have done it already) and at worst
it could zap some callback that's unrelated to shared memory.
Improve comments, and simplify the huge_pages enablement logic slightly.
Back-patch to 9.4 where hugepage support was introduced.
Arguably this should go into 9.3 as well, but the code looks
significantly different there, and I doubt it's worth the
trouble of adapting the patch given I can't show a live bug.
This turns out not to be as harmless as I thought: MSVC will complain
if it sees an "extern" declaration without PGDLLEXPORT and then one with.
(Seems fairly silly, given that this can be changed after the fact by the
linker, but there you have it.) Therefore, contrib modules that have
extern's for V1 functions in header files are falling over in the
buildfarm, since none of those externs are marked PGDLLEXPORT.
We might or might not conclude that we're willing to plaster those
declarations with PGDLLEXPORT in HEAD, but in any case there's no way we're
going to ship this change in the back branches. Third-party authors would
not thank us for breaking their code in a minor release. Hence, revert
the addition of PGDLLEXPORT (but let's keep the extra info in the comment).
If we do the other changes we can revert this commit in HEAD.
Per buildfarm.
This isn't really necessary for our own code, because we use a .DEF file
in MSVC builds (see gendef.pl), or --export-all-symbols in MinGW and
Cygwin builds, to ensure that all global symbols in loadable modules
will be exported on Windows. However, third-party authors might use
different build processes that need this marker, and it's harmless
enough for our own builds.
To some extent, this is an oversight in commit e7128e8db, so back-patch
to 9.4 where that was added.

Historically, we've allowed users to add a CHECK constraint to a child
table and then add an identical CHECK constraint to the parent. This
results in "merging" the two constraints so that the pre-existing
child constraint ends up with both conislocal = true and coninhcount > 0.
However, if you tried to do it in the other order, you got a duplicate
constraint error. This is problematic for pg_dump, which needs to issue
separated ADD CONSTRAINT commands in some cases, but has no good way to
ensure that the constraints will be added in the required order.
And it's more than a bit arbitrary, too. The goal of complaining about
duplicated ADD CONSTRAINT commands can be served if we reject the case of
adding a constraint when the existing one already has conislocal = true;
but if it has conislocal = false, let's just make the ADD CONSTRAINT set
conislocal = true. In this way, either order of adding the constraints
has the same end result.
Another problem was that the code allowed creation of a parent constraint
marked convalidated that is merged with a child constraint that is
!convalidated. In this case, an inheritance scan of the parent table could
emit some rows violating the constraint condition, which would be an
unexpected result given the marking of the parent constraint as validated.
Hence, forbid merging of constraints in this case. (Note: valid child and
not-valid parent seems fine, so continue to allow that.)
Per report from Benedikt Grundmann. Back-patch to 9.2 where we introduced
possibly-not-valid check constraints. The second bug obviously doesn't
apply before that, and I think the first doesn't either, because pg_dump
only gets into this situation when dealing with not-valid constraints.

Recent Perl and/or new Linux distributions are starting to remove "." from

Leaving the error in the error queue used to be harmless, because the
X509_STORE_load_locations() call used to be the last step in
initialize_SSL(), and we would clear the queue before the next
SSL_connect() call. But previous commit moved things around. The symptom
was that if a CRL file was not found, and one of the subsequent
initialization steps, like loading the client certificate or private key,
failed, we would incorrectly print the "no such file" error message from
the earlier X509_STORE_load_locations() call as the reason.
Backpatch to all supported versions, like the previous patch.
There were several issues with the old coding:
1. There was a race condition, if two threads opened a connection at the
same time. We used a mutex around SSL_CTX_* calls, but that was not
enough, e.g. if one thread SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations() with one
path, and another thread set it with a different path, before the first
thread got to establish the connection.
2. Opening two different connections, with different sslrootcert settings,
seemed to fail outright with "SSL error: block type is not 01". Not sure
why.
3. We created the SSL object, before calling SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations
and SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file on the SSL context. That was
wrong, because the options set on the SSL context are propagated to the
SSL object, when the SSL object is created. If they are set after the
SSL object has already been created, they won't take effect until the
next connection. (This is bug #14329)
At least some of these could've been fixed while still using a shared
context, but it would've been more complicated and error-prone. To keep
things simple, let's just use a separate SSL context for each connection,
and accept the overhead.

Before initializing iteration over a subtransaction's changes, the last

Backport: 9,4-, where logical decoding was added
In standard Unix builds, postmaster child processes do ClosePostmasterPorts
immediately after InitPostmasterChild, that is almost immediately after
being spawned. This is important because we don't want children holding
open the postmaster's end of the postmaster death watch pipe.
However, in EXEC_BACKEND builds, SubPostmasterMain was postponing this
responsibility significantly, in order to make it slightly more convenient
to pass the right flag value to ClosePostmasterPorts. This is bad,
particularly seeing that process_shared_preload_libraries() might invoke
nearly-arbitrary code. Rearrange so that we do it as soon as we've
fetched the socket FDs via read_backend_variables().
Also move the comment explaining about randomize_va_space to before the

placement was appropriate when the reattach happened inside
CreateSharedMemoryAndSemaphores, but that was a long time ago.

<sys/select.h> is required by POSIX.1-2001 to get the prototype of

let you get away with including some other headers. Recent OpenBSD
