To deparse a reference to a field of a RECORD-type output of a
subquery, EXPLAIN normally digs down into the subquery's plan to try
to discover exactly which anonymous RECORD type is meant. However,
this can fail if the subquery has been optimized out of the plan
altogether on the grounds that no rows could pass the WHERE quals,
which has been possible at least since 3fc6e2d7f. There isn't
anything remaining in the plan tree that would help us, so fall back
to printing the field name as "fN" for the N'th column of the record.
(This will actually be the right thing some of the time, since it
matches the column names we assign to RowExprs.)
In passing, fix a comment typo in create_projection_plan, which
I noticed while experimenting with an alternative fix for this.

Trying to attach a table as a partition which is already on the
referenced side of a foreign key on the partitioned table that it is
being attached to, leads to strange behavior: we try to clone the
foreign key from the parent to the partition, but this new FK points to
the partition itself, and the mix of pg_constraint rows and triggers
doesn't behave well.
Rather than trying to untangle the mess (which might be possible given
sufficient time), I opted to forbid the ATTACH. This doesn't seem a
problematic restriction, given that we already fail to create the
foreign key if you do it the other way around, that is, having the
partition first and the FK second.

If the plancache entry for the CALL statement is already stale,
it's possible for us to fetch an old procedure OID out of it,
and then fail with "cache lookup failed for function NNN".
In ordinary usage this never happens because make_callstmt_target
is called just once immediately after building the plancache
entry. It can be forced however by setting up an erroneous CALL
(that causes make_callstmt_target itself to report an error),
then dropping/recreating the target procedure, then repeating
the erroneous CALL.
To fix, use SPI_plan_get_cached_plan() to fetch the plancache's
plan, rather than assuming we can use SPI_plan_get_plan_sources().
This shouldn't add any noticeable overhead in the normal case,
and in the stale-plan case we'd have had to replan anyway a little
further down.
The other callers of SPI_plan_get_plan_sources() seem OK, because
either they don't need up-to-date plans or they know that the
query was just (re) planned. But add some commentary in hopes
of not falling into this trap again.

When pg_dump retrieves the list of database objects and performs the
data dump, there was possibility that objects are replaced with others
of the same name, such as views, and access them. This vulnerability
could result in code execution with superuser privileges during the
pg_dump process.
This issue can arise when dumping data of sequences, foreign
tables (only 13 or later), or tables registered with a WHERE clause in
the extension configuration table.
To address this, pg_dump now utilizes the newly introduced
restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind GUC parameter to restrict the
accesses to non-system views and foreign tables during the dump
process. This new GUC parameter is added to back branches too, but

This reverts commit 97380d4803.
Some buildfarm animals are failing with "cannot change
"client_encoding" during a parallel operation". It looks like
assign_client_encoding is unhappy at being asked to roll back a
client_encoding setting after a parallel worker encounters a
failure. There must be more to it though: why didn't I see this
during local testing? In any case, it's clear that moving the
RestoreGUCState() call is not as side-effect-free as I thought.
Given that the bug f5f30c22e intended to fix has gone unreported
for years, it's not something that's urgent to fix; I'm not
willing to risk messing with it further with only days to our
next release wrap.
Parallel workers failed after a sequence like
BEGIN;
CREATE USER foo;
SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION foo;
because check_session_authorization could not see the uncommitted
pg_authid row for "foo". This is because we ran RestoreGUCState()
in a separate transaction using an ordinary just-created snapshot.
The same disease afflicts any other GUC that requires catalog lookups
and isn't forgiving about the lookups failing.
To fix, postpone RestoreGUCState() into the worker's main transaction
after we've set up a snapshot duplicating the leader's. This affects
check_transaction_isolation and check_transaction_deferrable, which
think they should only run during transaction start. Make them
act like check_transaction_read_only, which already knows it should
silently accept the value when InitializingParallelWorker.

d42f60ccf0 introduced a test which generated dead tuples for vacuum

UPDATE -- which generates about 50% less WAL and makes the test 20%

If vacuum fails to remove a tuple with xmax older than
VacuumCutoffs->OldestXmin and younger than GlobalVisState->maybe_needed,
it will loop infinitely in lazy_scan_prune(), which compares tuples'
visibility information to OldestXmin.
Starting in version 14, which uses GlobalVisState for visibility testing
during pruning, it is possible for GlobalVisState->maybe_needed to
precede OldestXmin if maybe_needed is forced to go backward while vacuum
is running. This can happen if a disconnected standby with a running
transaction older than VacuumCutoffs->OldestXmin reconnects to the
primary after vacuum initially calculates GlobalVisState and OldestXmin.
Fix this by having vacuum always remove tuples older than OldestXmin
during pruning. This is okay because the standby won't replay the tuple
removal until the tuple is removable. Thus, the worst that can happen is
a recovery conflict.

Winsock only signals an FD_CLOSE event once if the other end of the

constructs and destroys a new event handle every time, with unlucky

end disconnects non-gracefully, because FD_CLOSE is repeatedly signaled
in that case.
To fix this design flaw in our Windows socket support fundamentally,
we'd probably need to rearchitect it so that a single event handle
exists for the lifetime of a socket, or switch to completely different
multiplexing or async I/O APIs. That's going to be a bigger job

When a partitioned table has an index that doesn't support a constraint,
but a partition has an equivalent index that does, then a DETACH
operation would misbehave: a crash in assertion-enabled systems (because
we fail to find the constraint in the parent that we expect to), or a
broken coninhcount value (-1) in production systems (because we blindly
believe that we've successfully detached the parent).
While we should reject an ATTACH of a partition with such an index, we
have failed to do so in existing releases, so adding an error in stable
releases might break the (unlikely) existing applications that rely on
this behavior. At this point I don't even want to reject them in
master, because it'd break pg_upgrade if such databases exist, and there
would be no easy way to fix existing databases without expensive index
rebuilds.
(Later on we could add ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT USING INDEX to
partitioned tables, which would allow the user to fix such patterns. At
that point we could add more restrictions to prevent the problem from
its root.)
Also, add a test case that leaves one table in this condition, so that
we can verify that pg_upgrade continues to work if we later decide to
change the policy on the master branch.

When creating and initializing a logical slot, the restart_lsn is set
to the latest WAL insertion point (or the latest replay point on
standbys). Subsequently, WAL records are decoded from that point to
find the start point for extracting changes in the
DecodingContextFindStartpoint() function. Since the initial
restart_lsn could be in the middle of a transaction, the start point
must be a consistent point where we won't see the data for partial
transactions.
Previously, when not building a full snapshot, serialized snapshots
were restored, and the SnapBuild jumps to the consistent state even
while finding the start point. Consequently, the slot's restart_lsn
and confirmed_flush could be set to the middle of a transaction. This
could lead to various unexpected consequences. Specifically, there
were reports of logical decoding decoding partial transactions, and
assertion failures occurred because only subtransactions were decoded
without decoding their top-level transaction until decoding the commit
record.
To resolve this issue, the changes prevent restoring the serialized
snapshot and jumping to the consistent state while finding the start
point.
On v17 and HEAD, a flag indicating whether snapshot restores should be
skipped has been added to the SnapBuild struct, and SNAPBUILD_VERSION
has been bumpded.
On backbranches, the flag is stored in the LogicalDecodingContext
