49fe1c83ec Fix virtual generated column type checking for ALTER TABLE
Virtual generated columns have some special checks in
CheckAttributeType(), mainly to check that domains are not used.  But
this check was only applied during CREATE TABLE, not during ALTER
TABLE.  This fixes that.

70d8a91f82 Remove excess assert from InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot()
ca307d5cec introduced keeping WAL segments by slot's last saved restart LSN.
It also added an assertion that the slot's restart LSN never goes backward.
However, situations when the restart LSN goes backward have been spotted by
buildfarm animals and investigated in the thread.

When pg_receivewal starts the replication, it sets the last replayed LSN to
the beginning of the segment, which is older than what
ReplicationSlotReserveWal() set for the slot.  A similar situation can happen
to pg_basebackup.  When standby reconnects to the primary, it sends the last
replayed LSN, which might be older than the last confirmed flush LSN.  In
both these situations, a concurrent checkpoint may trigger an assert trap.

a16ef313f2 Remove planner's have_dangerous_phv() join-order restriction.
Commit 85e5e222b, which added (a forerunner of) this logic,
argued that

    Adding the necessary complexity to make this work doesn't seem like
    it would be repaid in significantly better plans, because in cases
    where such a PHV exists, there is probably a corresponding join order
    constraint that would allow a good plan to be found without using the
    star-schema exception.

The flaw in this claim is that there may be other join-order
restrictions that prevent us from finding a join order that doesn't
involve a "dangerous" PHV.  In particular we now recognize that
small join_collapse_limit or from_collapse_limit could prevent it.
Therefore, let's bite the bullet and make the case work.

We don't have to extend the executor's support for nestloop parameters
as I thought at the time, because we can instead push the evaluation
of the placeholder's expression into the left-hand input of the
NestLoop node.  So there's not really a lot of downside to this
solution, and giving the planner more join-order flexibility should
have value beyond just avoiding failure.

Having said that, there surely is a nonzero risk of introducing
new bugs.  Since this failure mode escaped detection for ten years,
such cases don't seem common enough to justify a lot of risk.
Therefore, let's put this fix into master but leave the back branches
alone (for now anyway).

5861b1f343 Use SnapshotDirty when checking for conflicting index names.
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.

d87d07b7ad Fix re-distributing previously distributed invalidation messages during logical decoding.
Commit 4909b38af0 introduced logic to distribute invalidation messages
from catalog-modifying transactions to all concurrent in-progress
transactions. However, since each transaction distributes not only its
original invalidation messages but also previously distributed
messages to other transactions, this leads to an exponential increase
in allocation request size for invalidation messages, ultimately
causing memory allocation failure.

This commit fixes this issue by tracking distributed invalidation
messages separately per decoded transaction and not redistributing
these messages to other in-progress transactions. The maximum size of
distributed invalidation messages that one transaction can store is
limited to MAX_DISTR_INVAL_MSG_PER_TXN (8MB). Once the size of the
distributed invalidation messages exceeds this threshold, we
invalidate all caches in locations where distributed invalidation
messages need to be executed.

Back-patch to all supported versions where we introduced the fix by
commit 4909b38af0.

Note that this commit adds two new fields to ReorderBufferTXN to store
the distributed transactions. This change breaks ABI compatibility in
back branches, affecting third-party extensions that depend on the
size of the ReorderBufferTXN struct, though this scenario seems
unlikely.

Additionally, it adds a new flag to the txn_flags field of
ReorderBufferTXN to indicate distributed invalidation message
overflow. This should not affect existing implementations, as it is
unlikely that third-party extensions use unused bits in the txn_flags
field.

33b06a2001 Fix possible Assert failure in verify_compact_attribute()
Sometimes the TupleDesc used in verify_compact_attribute() is shared
among backends, and since CompactAttribute.attcacheoff gets updated
during tuple deformation, it was possible that another backend would
set attcacheoff on a given CompactAttribute in the small window of time
from when the attcacheoff from the live CompactAttribute was being set
in the 'tmp' CompactAttribute and before the Assert verifying that the
live and tmp CompactAttributes matched.

Here we adjust the code to make a copy of the live CompactAttribute so
that we're not trying to Assert against a shared copy of it.

e9a3615a52 aio: Add missing memory barrier when waiting for IO handle
Previously there was no memory barrier enforcing correct memory ordering when
waiting for a free IO handle. However, in the much more common case of waiting
for IO to complete, memory barriers already were present.

On strongly ordered architectures like x86 this had no negative consequences,
but on some armv8 hardware (observed on Apple hardware), it was possible for
the update, in the IO worker, to PgAioHandle->state to become visible before
->distilled_result becoming visible, leading to rather confusing assertion
failures. The failures were rare enough that the bug sometimes took days to
reproduce when running 027_stream_regress in a loop.

Once finally debugged, it was easy enough to come up with a much quicker
repro: Trigger a lot of very fast IO by limiting io_combine_limit to 1 and
ensure that we always have to wait for a free handle by setting
io_max_concurrency to 1. Triggering lots of concurrent seqscans in that setup
triggers the issue within seconds.

One reason this was hard to debug was that the assertion failure most commonly
happened in WaitReadBuffers(), rather than in the AIO subsystem itself. The
assertions added in this commit make problems like this easier to understand.

Also add a comment to the IO worker explaining that we rely on the lwlock
acquisition for correct memory ordering.

I think it'd be good to add a tap test that stress tests buffer IO, but that's
material for a separate patch.

Thanks a lot to Alexander and Konstantin for all the debugging help.

b27644bade Sync typedefs.list with the buildfarm.
Our maintenance of typedefs.list has been a little haphazard
(and apparently we can't alphabetize worth a darn).  Replace
the file with the authoritative list from our buildfarm, and
run pgindent using that.

I also updated the additions/exclusions lists in pgindent where
necessary to keep pgindent from messing things up significantly.
Notably, now that regex_t and some related names are macros not real
typedefs, we have to whitelist them explicitly.  The exclusions list
has also drifted noticeably, presumably due to changes of system
headers on the buildfarm animals that contribute to the list.

Unlike in prior years, I've not manually added typedef names that
are missing from the buildfarm's list because they are not used to
declare any variables or fields.  So there are a few places where
the typedef declaration itself is formatted worse than before,
e.g. typedef enum IoMethod.  I could preserve the names that were
manually added to the list previously, but I'd really prefer to find
a less manual way of dealing with these cases.  A quick grep finds
about 75 such symbols, most of which have never gotten any special
treatment.

Per discussion among pgsql-release, doing this now seems appropriate
even though we're still a week or two away from making the v18 branch.

eb124c3d6d Add TAP tests to check replication slot advance during the checkpoint
The new tests verify that logical and physical replication slots are still
valid after an immediate restart on checkpoint completion when the slot was

This commit introduces two new injection points to make these tests possible:

* checkpoint-before-old-wal-removal - triggered in the checkpointer process
  just before old WAL segments cleanup;
* logical-replication-slot-advance-segment - triggered in
  LogicalConfirmReceivedLocation() when restart_lsn was changed enough to
  point to the next WAL segment.

ca307d5cec Keep WAL segments by slot's last saved restart LSN
The patch fixes the issue with the unexpected removal of old WAL segments
after checkpoint, followed by an immediate restart.  The issue occurs when
a slot is advanced after the start of the checkpoint and before old WAL
segments are removed at the end of the checkpoint.

The patch introduces a new in-memory state for slots: last_saved_restart_lsn,
which is used to calculate the oldest LSN for removing WAL segments. This
state is updated every time with the current restart_lsn at the moment when
the slot is saved to disk.

This fix changes the shared memory layout.  It's applied to HEAD only because
we don't have to preserve ABI compatibility during the beta stage.  Another
fix that doesn't affect the ABI is committed to back branches.

0f65f3eec4 Fix squashing algorithm for query texts
The algorithm to squash lists of constants added by commit 62d712ecfd
was a bit too simplistic; we wanted to avoid adding unnecessary
complexity, but cases like direct function calls of typecasting
functions (and others) were missed, and bogus SQL syntax was being shown
in pg_stat_statements normalized query text field.  To fix normalization
for those cases, we need the parser to transmit information about were
each list of constant values starts and ends, so add that to a couple of
nodes.  Also add a few more test cases to make sure we're doing the
right thing.

The patch initially submitted by Sami added a new private struct in
gram.y to carry the start/end information for A_Expr, but I (Álvaro)
decided that a better fix was to remove the parser indirection via the
in_expr production, and instead create separate components in the a_expr
rule.  I'm surprised that this works and doesn't require more changes,
but I assume (without checking) that the grammar used to be more complex
and got simplified at some point.

Bump catversion.

f85f6ab051 Revert support for improved tracking of nested queries
This commit reverts the two following commits:
- 499edb0974, track more precisely query locations for nested
statements.
- 06450c7b8c, a follow-up fix of 499edb0974 with query locations.
The test introduced in this commit is not reverted.  This is proving
useful to track a problem that only pgaudit was able to detect.

These prove to have issues with the tracking of SELECT statements, when
these use multiple parenthesis which is something supported by the
grammar.  Incorrect location and lengths are causing pg_stat_statements
to become confused, failing its job in query normalization with
potential out-of-bound writes because the location and the length may
not match with what can be handled.  A lot of the query patterns
discussed when this issue was reported have no test coverage in the main
regression test suite, or the recovery test 027_stream_regress.pl would
have caught the problems as pg_stat_statements is loaded by the node
running the regression tests.  A first step would be to improve the test
coverage to stress more the query normalization logic.

A different portion of this work was done in 45e0ba30fc, with the
addition of tests for nested queries.  These can be left in the tree.
They are useful to track the way inner queries are currently tracked by
PGSS with non-top-level entries, and will be useful when reconsidering
in the future the work reverted here.

7c319f5491 Make _bt_killitems drop pins it acquired itself.
Teach nbtree's _bt_killitems to leave the so->currPos page that it sets
LP_DEAD items on in whatever state it was in when _bt_killitems was
called.  In particular, make sure that so->dropPin scans don't acquire a
pin whose reference is saved in so->currPos.buf.

Allowing _bt_killitems to change so->currPos.buf like this is wrong.
The immediate consequence of allowing it is that code in _bt_steppage
(that copies so->currPos into so->markPos) will behave as if the scan is
a !so->dropPin scan.  so->markPos will therefore retain the buffer pin
indefinitely, even though _bt_killitems only needs to acquire a pin
(along with a lock) for long enough to mark known-dead items LP_DEAD.

This issue came to light following a report of a failure of an assertion
from recent commit e6eed40e.  The test case in question involves the use
of mark and restore.  An initial call to _bt_killitems takes place that
leaves so->currPos.buf in a state that is inconsistent with the scan
being so->dropPin.  A subsequent call to _bt_killitems for the same
position (following so->currPos being saved in so->markPos, and then
restored as so->currPos) resulted in the failure of an assertion that
tests that so->currPos.buf is InvalidBuffer when the scan is so->dropPin
(non-assert builds got a "resource was not closed" WARNING instead).

The same problem exists on earlier releases, though the issue is far
more subtle there.  Recent commit e6eed40e introduced the so->dropPin
field as a partial replacement for testing so->currPos.buf directly.
Earlier releases won't get an assertion failure (or buffer pin leak),
but they will allow the second _bt_killitems call from the test case to
behave as if a buffer pin was consistently held since the original call
to _bt_readpage.  This is wrong; there will have been an initial window
during which no pin was held on the so->currPos page, and yet the second
_bt_killitems call will neglect to check if so->currPos.lsn continues to
match the page's now-current LSN.

As a result of all this, it's just about possible that _bt_killitems
will set the wrong items LP_DEAD (on release branches).  This could only
happen with merge joins (the sole user of nbtree mark/restore support),
when a concurrently inserted index tuple used a recently-recycled TID
(and only when the new tuple was inserted onto the same page as a
distinct concurrently-removed tuple with the same TID).  This is exactly
the scenario that _bt_killitems' check of the page's now-current LSN
against the LSN stashed in currPos was supposed to prevent.

A follow-up commit will make nbtree completely stop conditioning whether
or not a position's pin needs to be dropped on whether the 'buf' field
is set.  All call sites that might need to drop a still-held pin will be
taught to rely on the scan-level so->dropPin field recently introduced
by commit e6eed40e.  That will make bugs of the same general nature as
this one impossible (or make them much easier to detect, at least).

137935bd11 Don't reduce output request size on non-Unix-socket connections.
Traditionally, libpq's pqPutMsgEnd has rounded down the amount-to-send
to be a multiple of 8K when it is eagerly writing some data.  This
still seems like a good idea when sending through a Unix socket, as
pipes typically have a buffer size of 8K or some fraction/multiple of
that.  But there's not much argument for it on a TCP connection, since
(a) standard MTU values are not commensurate with that, and (b) the
kernel typically applies its own packet splitting/merging logic.

Worse, our SSL and GSSAPI code paths both have API stipulations that
if they fail to send all the data that was offered in the previous
write attempt, we mustn't offer less data in the next attempt; else
we may get "SSL error: bad length" or "GSSAPI caller failed to
retransmit all data needing to be retried".  The previous write
attempt might've been pqFlush attempting to send everything in the
buffer, so pqPutMsgEnd can't safely write less than the full buffer
contents.  (Well, we could add some more state to track exactly how
much the previous write attempt was, but there's little value evident
in such extra complication.)  Hence, apply the round-down only on
AF_UNIX sockets, where we never use SSL or GSSAPI.

Interestingly, we had a very closely related bug report before,
which I attempted to fix in commit d053a879b.  But the test case
we had then seemingly didn't trigger this pqFlush-then-pqPutMsgEnd
scenario, or at least we failed to recognize this variant of the bug.

e6eed40e44 Avoid BufferGetLSNAtomic() calls during nbtree scans.
Delay calling BufferGetLSNAtomic() until we finish reading a page that
actually contains items that btgettuple will return to the executor.
This reduces the number of calls during plain index scans (we'll only
call BufferGetLSNAtomic() when _bt_readpage returns true), and totally
eliminates calls during index-only scans, bitmap index scans, and plain
index scans of an unlogged relation.

Currently, when checksums (or wal_log_hints) are enabled, acquiring a
page's LSN in BufferGetLSNAtomic() involves locking the buffer header
(which involves the use of spinlocks).  Testing has shown that enabling
page-level checksums causes large regressions with certain workloads,
especially on larger multi-socket systems.

The regression isn't tied to any Postgres 18 commit.  However, Postgres
18 commit 04bec894 made initdb use checksums by default, so it seems
prudent to address the problem now.

cc733ed164 Avoid bogus scans of partitions when validating FKs to partitioned tables
Validating an unvalidated foreign key that references a partitioned
table would try to queue validations for each individual partition of
the referenced table, but this is wrong: each individual partition would
not necessarily have all the referenced rows, so errors would be raised.
Avoid doing that.  The pg_constraint rows that cause this to happen are
only there to support the action triggers that implement the DELETE/
UPDATE actions of the FK, so no validating scan is necessary.

This was an oversight in commit b663b9436e.

An equivalent oversight exists for NOT ENFORCED constraints, which is
not fixed in this commit.

make it work it was decided that we should strip the $libdir/ on
module_pathname from .control files, so that extensions don't need to
worry about this change.

This strip logic was implemented on expand_dynamic_library_name()
which works fine when executing the SQL functions from extensions, but
this function is also called when the LOAD command is executed, and
since the user may explicitly pass the $libdir prefix on LOAD
parameter, we should not strip in this case.

This commit fixes this issue by moving the strip logic from
expand_dynamic_library_name() to load_external_function() that is
called when the running the SQL script from extensions.

that leads to confusing and off-point error messages.  We can
improve matters by rejecting names containing "=" up-front.

(Probably a better design would have involved pairs of array
elements, but it's too late now --- and anyway, there's no
evident use-case for option names like this.  We already
reject such names in some other contexts such as GUCs.)

052026c9b9 mistakenly reordered setup steps in heap_vacuum_rel(),
incorrectly moving RelationGetNumberOfBlocks() before
vacuum_get_cutoffs().

OldestXmin must be determined before RelationGetNumberOfBlocks()
calculates the number of blocks in the relation that will be vacuumed.
Otherwise tuples older than OldestXmin may be inserted into the end of
the relation into blocks that are not vacuumed. If additional tuples
newer than those inserted into unscanned blocks but older than
OldestXmin are inserted into free space earlier in the relation, the
result could be advancing pg_class.relfrozenxid to a newer value than an
unfrozen XID in one of the unscanned heap pages.

Assigning an incorrect relfrozenxid can lead to data loss, so it is
imperative that it correctly reflect the oldest unfrozen xid.

32edf732e8 Rename gist stratnum support function
Commit 7406ab623f added a gist support function that we internally
refer to by the symbol GIST_STRATNUM_PROC.  This translated from
"well-known" strategy numbers to opfamily-specific strategy numbers.
However, we later (commit 630f9a43ce) changed this to fit into
index-AM-level compare type mapping, so this function actually now
maps from compare type to opfamily-specific strategy numbers.  So this
name is no longer fitting.

Moreover, the index AM level also supports the opposite, a function to
map from strategy number to compare type.  This is currently not
supported in gist, but one might wonder what this function is supposed
to be called when it is added.

This patch changes the naming of the gist-level functionality to be
more in line with the index-AM-level functionality.  This makes sense
because these are essentially the same thing on different levels.
This also changes the names of the externally visible functions that
are provided for use as such a support function.

5231ed8262 Use replay LSN as target for cascading logical WAL senders
A cascading WAL sender doing logical decoding (as known as doing its
work on a standby) has been using as flush LSN the value returned by
GetStandbyFlushRecPtr() (last position safely flushed to disk).  This is
incorrect as such processes are only able to decode changes up to the
LSN that has been replayed by the startup process.

This commit changes cascading logical WAL senders to use the replay LSN,
as returned by GetXLogReplayRecPtr().  This distinction is important
particularly during shutdown, when WAL senders need to send any
remaining available data to their clients, switching WAL senders to a
caught-up state.  Using the latest flush LSN rather than the replay LSN
could cause the WAL senders to be stuck in an infinite loop preventing
them to shut down, as the startup process does not run when WAL senders
attempt to catch up, so they could keep waiting for work that would
never happen.

Backpatch down to v16, where logical decoding on standbys has been
introduced.

e5a3c9d9b5 postgres_fdw: Inherit the local transaction's access/deferrable modes.
Previously, postgres_fdw always 1) opened a remote transaction in READ
WRITE mode even when the local transaction was READ ONLY, causing a READ
ONLY transaction using it that references a foreign table mapped to a
remote view executing a volatile function to write in the remote side,
and 2) opened the remote transaction in NOT DEFERRABLE mode even when
the local transaction was DEFERRABLE, causing a SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY
DEFERRABLE transaction using it to abort due to a serialization failure
in the remote side.

To avoid these, modify postgres_fdw to open a remote transaction in the
same access/deferrable modes as the local transaction.  This commit also
modifies it to open a remote subtransaction in the same access mode as
the local subtransaction.

Although these issues exist since the introduction of postgres_fdw,
there have been no reports from the field.  So it seems fine to just fix
them in master only.

b006bcd531 Fix MERGE into a plain inheritance parent table.
When a MERGE's target table is the parent of an inheritance tree, any
INSERT actions insert into the parent table using ModifyTableState's
rootResultRelInfo. However, there are two bugs in the way is
initialized:

1. ExecInitMerge() incorrectly uses a different ResultRelInfo entry
from ModifyTableState's resultRelInfo array to build the insert
projection, which may not be compatible with rootResultRelInfo.

2. ExecInitModifyTable() does not fully initialize rootResultRelInfo.
Specifically, ri_WithCheckOptions, ri_WithCheckOptionExprs,
ri_returningList, and ri_projectReturning are not initialized.

This can lead to crashes, or incorrect query results due to failing to
check WCO's or process the RETURNING list for INSERT actions.

Fix both these bugs in ExecInitMerge(), noting that it is only
necessary to fully initialize rootResultRelInfo if the MERGE has
INSERT actions and the target table is a plain inheritance parent.

Backpatch to v15, where MERGE was introduced.

706054b11b Ensure we have a snapshot when updating various system catalogs.
A few places that access system catalogs don't set up an active
snapshot before potentially accessing their TOAST tables.  To fix,
push an active snapshot just before each section of code that might
require accessing one of these TOAST tables, and pop it shortly
afterwards.  While at it, this commit adds some rather strict
assertions in an attempt to prevent such issues in the future.

Commit 16bf24e0e4 recently removed pg_replication_origin's TOAST
table in order to fix the same problem for that catalog.  On the
back-branches, those bugs are left in place.  We cannot easily
remove a catalog's TOAST table on released major versions, and only
replication origins with extremely long names are affected.  Given
the low severity of the issue, fixing older versions doesn't seem
worth the trouble of significantly modifying the patch.

Also, on v13 and v14, the aforementioned strict assertions have
been omitted because commit 2776922201, which added
HaveRegisteredOrActiveSnapshot(), was not back-patched.  While we
could probably back-patch it now, I've opted against it because it
seems unlikely that new TOAST snapshot issues will be introduced in

d98cefe114 Allow larger packets during GSSAPI authentication exchange.
Our GSSAPI code only allows packet sizes up to 16kB.  However it
emerges that during authentication, larger packets might be needed;
various authorities suggest 48kB or 64kB as the maximum packet size.
This limitation caused login failure for AD users who belong to many
AD groups.  To add insult to injury, we gave an unintelligible error
message, typically "GSSAPI context establishment error: The routine
must be called again to complete its function: Unknown error".

As noted in code comments, the 16kB packet limit is effectively a
protocol constant once we are doing normal data transmission: the
GSSAPI code splits the data stream at those points, and if we change
the limit then we will have cross-version compatibility problems
due to the receiver's buffer being too small in some combinations.
However, during the authentication exchange the packet sizes are
not determined by us, but by the underlying GSSAPI library.  So we
might as well just try to send what the library tells us to.
An unpatched recipient will fail on a packet larger than 16kB,
but that's not worse than the sender failing without even trying.
So this doesn't introduce any meaningful compatibility problem.

We still need a buffer size limit, but we can easily make it be
64kB rather than 16kB until transport negotiation is complete.
(Larger values were discussed, but don't seem likely to add
anything.)

961553daf5 Make XactLockTableWait() and ConditionalXactLockTableWait() interruptable more.
Previously, XactLockTableWait() and ConditionalXactLockTableWait() could enter
a non-interruptible loop when they successfully acquired a lock on a transaction
but the transaction still appeared to be running. Since this loop continued
until the transaction completed, it could result in long, uninterruptible waits.

Although this scenario is generally unlikely since XactLockTableWait() and
ConditionalXactLockTableWait() can basically acquire a transaction lock
only when the transaction is not running, it can occur in a hot standby.
In such cases, the transaction may still appear active due to
the KnownAssignedXids list, even while no lock on the transaction exists.
For example, this situation can happen when creating a logical replication
slot on a standby.

The cause of the non-interruptible loop was the absence of CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS()
within it. This commit adds CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to the loop in both functions,
ensuring they can be interrupted safely.
