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.
Commit 4f7f7b0375 implemented the extension_control_path GUC, and to
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.

uint64 was perhaps chosen in cff440d36 as the type was uint32 prior to
that widening work.
Having this as uint64 doesn't make much sense and just adds the overhead of
having to remember that we always output this in its signed form. Let's
remove that overhead.
The signed form output is seemingly required since we have no way to
represent the full range of uint64 in an SQL type. We use BIGINT in places
like pg_stat_statements, which maps directly to int64.
The release notes "Source Code" section may want to mention this
adjustment as some extensions may wish to adjust their code.

ParseFraction only expects to deal with fields that contain a decimal
point and digit(s). However it's possible in some edge cases for it
to be passed input that doesn't look like that. In particular the
input could look like a valid floating-point number, such as ".123e6".
strtod() will happily eat that, possibly producing a result that is
not within the expected range 0..1, which can result in integer
overflow in the callers. That doesn't have any security consequences,
but it's still not very desirable. Fix by checking that the input
has the expected form.
Similarly, DecodeNumberField only expects to deal with fields that
contain a decimal point and digit(s), but it's sometimes abused to
parse strings that might not look like that. This could result in
failure to reject bogus input, yielding silly results. Again, fix
by rejecting input that doesn't look as-expected. That decision
also means that we can affirmatively answer the very old comment
questioning whether we couldn't save some duplicative code by
using ParseFractionalSecond here.
While these changes should only reject input that nobody would
consider valid, it still doesn't seem like a change to make in
stable branches. Apply to HEAD only.

In pl_comp.c, initially create the plpgsql function's cache context
under the assumed-short-lived caller's context, and reparent it under
CacheMemoryContext only upon success. This avoids a process-lifespan
leak of 8kB or more if the function contains syntax errors. (This
leakage has existed for a long time without many complaints, but as
we move towards a possibly multi-threaded future, getting rid of
process-lifespan leaks grows more important.)
In funccache.c, arrange to reclaim the CachedFunction struct in case
the language-specific compile callback function throws an error;
previously, that resulted in an independent process-lifespan leak.
This is arguably a new bug in v18, since the leakage now occurred
for SQL-language functions as well as plpgsql.
Also, don't fill fn_xmin/fn_tid/dcallback until after successful
completion of the compile callback. This avoids a scenario where a
partially-built function cache might appear already valid upon later
inspection, and another scenario where dcallback might fail upon being
presented with an incomplete cache entry. We would have to reach such
a faulty cache entry via a pre-existing fn_extra pointer, so I'm not
sure these scenarios correspond to any live bug. (The predecessor
code in pl_comp.c never took any care about this, and we've heard no
complaints about that.) Still, it's better to be careful.
Given the lack of field complaints, I'm not very excited about
back-patching any of this; but it seems still in-scope for v18.

The code that translates SIMILAR TO pattern matching expressions to
POSIX-style regular expressions did not consider that square brackets
can be nested. For example, in an expression like [[:alpha:]%_], the
logic replaced the placeholders '_' and '%' but it should not.
This commit fixes the conversion logic by tracking the nesting level of
square brackets marking character class areas, while considering that
in expressions like []] or [^]] the first closing square bracket is a
regular character. Multiple tests are added to show how the conversions
should or should not apply applied while in a character class area, with
specific cases added for all the characters converted outside character
classes like an opening parenthesis '(', dollar sign '$', etc.

If the inner allocation call returns NULL, we should restore the

the old chunk anyway, which is surely wrong.
Also, make it call MemoryContextAllocationFailure rather than
summarily returning NULL. The fact that we got control back from the

This is just a latent bug at present: AFAICT no in-core callers use

In the grammar, <expr> is a c_expr, which accepts only a limited set

deparsing logic didn't quite match the grammar rule, and failed to use
parens e.g. for "5::bigint".
To fix, always surround the expression with parens. Would be nice to
omit the parens in simple cases, but unfortunately it's non-trivial to
detect such simple cases. Even if the expression is a simple literal

to use for the lock.
The divisor in this case is always a power-of-two value. Here we swap

In passing, adjust the code that's setting FastPathLockGroupsPerBackend

10f6646847 intended to limit the value of io_combine_limit to the minimum of
io_combine_limit and io_max_combine_limit. To avoid issues with interdependent
GUCs, it introduced io_combine_limit_guc and set io_combine_limit in assign
hooks. That plan was thwarted by guc_tables.c accidentally still referencing
io_combine_limit, instead of io_combine_limit_guc. That lead to the GUC
machinery overriding the work done in the assign hooks, potentially leaving
io_combine_limit with a too high value.
The consequence of this bug was that when running with io_combine_limit >
io_combine_limit_guc the AIO machinery would not have reserved large enough
iovec and IO data arrays, with one IO's arrays overlapping with another IO's,
leading to total confusion.
To make such a problem easier to detect in the future, add assertions to
pgaio_io_set_handle_data_* checking the length is smaller than
io_max_combine_limit (not just PG_IOV_MAX).
It'd be nice to have a few tests for this, but it's not entirely obvious how
to do so portably.
As remarked upon by Tom, the GUC assignment hooks really shouldn't set the
underlying variable, that's the job of the GUC machinery. Change that as well.

1) We must keep the origin_rinfos list ordered exactly the same way as

2) add_unique_group_var() is designed for estimate_num_groups(), where a
larger number of groups is worse. While estimating the number of hash
buckets, we have the opposite: a lesser number of groups is worse.
Therefore, we don't have to remove "known equal" vars: the removed var

This assertion, based on pending_since (timestamp used to prevent stats
reports to be too frequent or should a partial flush happen), is reached
when it is found that no data can be flushed but a previous call of
pgstat_report_stat() determined that some stats data has been found as
in need of a flush. So pending_since is set when some stats data is
pending (in non-force mode) or if report attempts are too frequent, and
reset to 0 once all stats have been flushed.
Since 5cbbe70a9c, WAL senders have begun to report their stats on a
periodic basis for IO stats in v16~ and backend stats on HEAD, creating
some friction with the concurrent pgstat_report_stat() calls that can
happen in the context of a WAL sender (shutdown callback doing a final
report or backend-related code paths). This problem is the cause of
spurious failures in the TAP tests.
In theory, this assertion can be also reached in v15, even if that's
very unlikely. For example, a process, say a background worker, could
do periodic and direct stats flushes with concurrent calls of
pgstat_report_stat() that could cause conflicting values of
pending_since. This can be done with WAL or SLRU stats flushes using
pgstat_flush_wal() or pgstat_slru_flush(). HEAD makes this situation
easier to happen with custom cumulative stats.
This commit removes the assertion altogether, per discussion, as it is
more useful to keep the state of things as they are for the WAL sender.
The assertion could use a special state based on for example
am_walsender, but I doubt that this would be meaningful in the long run
based on the other arguments raised while discussing this issue.
