30e491653b Restructure polymorphic-type resolution in funcapi.c.
resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and resolve_polymorphic_argtypes() failed to
cover the case of having to resolve anyarray given only an anyrange input.
The bug was masked if anyelement was also used (as either input or
output), which probably helps account for our not having noticed.

While looking at this I noticed that resolve_generic_type() would produce
the wrong answer if asked to make that same resolution.  ISTM that
resolve_generic_type() is confusingly defined and overly complex, so
rather than fix it, let's just make funcapi.c do the specific lookups
it requires for itself.

With this change, resolve_generic_type() is not used anywhere, so remove
it in HEAD.  In the back branches, leave it alone (complete with bug)
just in case any external code is using it.

While we're here, make some other refactoring adjustments in funcapi.c
with an eye to upcoming future expansion of the set of polymorphic types:

* Simplify quick-exit tests by adding an overall have_polymorphic_result
flag.  This is about a wash now but will be a win when there are more
flags.

* Reduce duplication of code between resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and
resolve_polymorphic_argtypes().

* Don't bother to validate correct matching of anynonarray or anyenum;
the parser should have done that, and even if it didn't, just doing
"return false" here would lead to a very confusing, off-point error
message.  (Really, "return false" in these two functions should only
occur if the call_expr isn't supplied or we can't obtain data type
info from it.)

* For the same reason, throw an elog rather than "return false" if
we fail to resolve a polymorphic type.

The bug's been there since we added anyrange, so back-patch to
all supported branches.

2f0dd9d93e Preserve replica identity index across ALTER TABLE rewrite
If an index was explicitly set as replica identity index, this setting
was lost when a table was rewritten by ALTER TABLE.  Because this
setting is part of pg_index but actually controlled by ALTER
TABLE (not part of CREATE INDEX, say), we have to do some extra work
to restore it.

4e8cad2da3 Fix nextXid tracking bug on standbys (9.5-11 only).
RecordKnownAssignedTransactionIds() should never move
nextXid backwards.  Before this commit, that could happen
if some other code path had advanced it without advancing
latestObservedXid.

One consequence is that a well timed XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE
could cause hot standby feedback messages to get confused
and report an xmin from a future epoch, potentially allowing
vacuum to run too soon on the primary.

Repair, by making sure RecordKnownAssignedTransactionIds()
can only move nextXid forwards.

In release 12 and master, this was already done by commit
2fc7af5e, which consolidated similar code and straightened
out this bug.  Back-patch to supported releases before that.

Avoid duplicates in ALTER ... DEPENDS ON EXTENSION

depends on, silently do nothing.

In particular, this means that if a database containing multiple such
entries is dumped, the restore will silently do the right thing and
record just the first one.  (At least, in a world where pg_dump does
dump such entries -- which it doesn't currently, but it will.)

fab5456356 Fix pg_dump/pg_restore to restore event triggers later.
Previously, event triggers were restored just after regular triggers
(and FK constraints, which are basically triggers).  This is risky
since an event trigger, once installed, could interfere with subsequent
restore commands.  Worse, because event triggers don't have any
particular dependencies on any post-data objects, a parallel restore
would consider them eligible to be restored the moment the post-data
phase starts, allowing them to also interfere with restoration of a
whole bunch of objects that would have been restored before them in
a serial restore.  There's no way to completely remove the risk of a
misguided event trigger breaking the restore, since if nothing else
it could break other event triggers.  But we can certainly push them
to later in the process to minimize the hazard.

To fix, tweak the RestorePass mechanism introduced by commit 3eb9a5e7c
so that event triggers are handled as part of the post-ACL processing
pass (renaming the "REFRESH" pass to "POST_ACL" to reflect its more
general use).  This will cause them to restore after everything except
matview refreshes, which seems OK since matview refreshes really ought
to run in the post-restore state of the database.  In a parallel
restore, event triggers and matview refreshes might be intermixed,
but that seems all right as well.

Also update the code and comments in pg_dump_sort.c so that its idea
of how things are sorted agrees with what actually happens due to
the RestorePass mechanism.  This is mostly cosmetic: it'll affect the
order of objects in a dump's TOC, but not the actual restore order.
But not changing that would be quite confusing to somebody reading
the code.

d1b414e7e1 Fix bug that causes to report waiting in PS display twice, in hot standby.
Previously "waiting" could appear twice via PS in case of lock conflict
in hot standby mode. Specifically this issue happend when the delay
in WAL application determined by max_standby_archive_delay and
max_standby_streaming_delay had passed but it took more than 500 msec
to cancel all the conflicting transactions. Especially we can observe this
easily by setting those delay parameters to -1.

The cause of this issue was that WaitOnLock() and
ResolveRecoveryConflictWithVirtualXIDs() added "waiting" to
the process title in that case. This commit prevents
ResolveRecoveryConflictWithVirtualXIDs() from reporting waiting
in case of lock conflict, to fix the bug.

f06965c140 Avoid assertion failure with targeted recovery in standby mode.
At the end of recovery, standby mode is turned off to re-fetch the last
valid record from archive or pg_wal. Previously, if recovery target was
reached and standby mode was turned off while the current WAL source
was stream, recovery could try to retrieve WAL file containing the last
valid record unexpectedly from stream even though not in standby mode.
This caused an assertion failure. That is, the assertion test confirms that
WAL file should not be retrieved from stream if standby mode is not true.

This commit moves back the current WAL source to archive if it's stream
even though not in standby mode, to avoid that assertion failure.

This issue doesn't cause the server to crash when built with assertion
disabled. In this case, the attempt to retrieve WAL file from stream not
in standby mode just fails. And then recovery tries to retrieve WAL file
from archive or pg_wal.

3e5308969a Fix confusion about event trigger vs. plain function in plpgsql.
The function hash table keys made by compute_function_hashkey() failed
to distinguish event-trigger call context from regular call context.
This meant that once we'd successfully made a hash entry for an event
trigger (either by validation, or by normal use as an event trigger),
an attempt to call the trigger function as a plain function would
find this hash entry and thereby bypass the you-can't-do-that check in
do_compile().  Thus we'd attempt to execute the function, leading to
strange errors or even crashes, depending on function contents and
server version.

To fix, add an isEventTrigger field to PLpgSQL_func_hashkey,
paralleling the longstanding infrastructure for regular triggers.
This fits into what had been pad space, so there's no risk of an ABI
break, even assuming that any third-party code is looking at these
hash keys.  (I considered replacing isTrigger with a PLpgSQL_trigtype
enum field, but felt that that carried some API/ABI risk.  Maybe we
should change it in HEAD though.)

Per bug #16266 from Alexander Lakhin.  This has been broken since
event triggers were invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.

307c270374 Fix mesurement of elapsed time during truncating heap in VACUUM.
VACUUM may truncate heap in several batches. The activity report
is logged for each batch, and contains the number of pages in the table
before and after the truncation, and also the elapsed time during
the truncation. Previously the elapsed time reported in each batch was
the total elapsed time since starting the truncation until finishing
each batch. For example, if the truncation was processed dividing into
three batches, the second batch reported the accumulated time elapsed
during both first and second batches. This is strange and confusing
because the number of pages in the table reported together is not
total. Instead, each batch should report the time elapsed during
only that batch.

The cause of this issue was that the resource usage snapshot was
initialized only at the beginning of the truncation and was never
reset later. This commit fixes the issue by changing VACUUM so that
the resource usage snapshot is reset at each batch.

59c1a03f07 Stop demanding that top xact must be seen before subxact in decoding.
Manifested as

ERROR:  subtransaction logged without previous top-level txn record

this check forbids legit behaviours like
 - First xl_xact_assignment record is beyond reading, i.e. earlier
   restart_lsn.
 - After restart_lsn there is some change of a subxact.
 - After that, there is second xl_xact_assignment (for another subxact)
   revealing the relationship between top and first subxact.

Such a transaction won't be streamed anyway because we hadn't seen it in
full.  Saying for sure whether xact of some record encountered after
the snapshot was deserialized can be streamed or not requires to know
whether it wrote something before deserialization point --if yes, it
hasn't been seen in full and can't be decoded. Snapshot doesn't have such
info, so there is no easy way to relax the check.

804a650e4b Doc: fix old oversights in GRANT/REVOKE documentation.
The GRANTED BY clause in GRANT/REVOKE ROLE has been there since 2005
but was never documented.  I'm not sure now whether that was just an
oversight or was intentional (given the limited capability of the
option).  But seeing that pg_dumpall does emit code that uses this
option, it seems like not documenting it at all is a bad idea.

Also, when we upgraded the syntax to allow CURRENT_USER/SESSION_USER
as the privilege recipient, the role form of GRANT was incorrectly
not modified to show that, and REVOKE's docs weren't touched at all.

Although I'm not that excited about GRANTED BY, the other oversight
seems serious enough to justify a back-patch.

failures with quotes included in the default socket directory used by

cb4c04a4e6 Fix parallel pg_dump/pg_restore for failure to create worker processes.
If we failed to fork a worker process, or create a communication pipe
for one, WaitForTerminatingWorkers would suffer an assertion failure
if assert-enabled, otherwise crash or go into an infinite loop.  This
was a consequence of not accounting for the startup condition where
we've not yet forked all the workers.

The original bug was that ParallelBackupStart would set workerStatus to
WRKR_IDLE before it had successfully forked a worker.  I made things
worse in commit b7b8cc0cf by not understanding the undocumented fact
that the WRKR_TERMINATED state was also meant to represent the case
where a worker hadn't been started yet: I changed enum T_WorkerStatus
so that *all* the worker slots were initially in WRKR_IDLE state.  But
this wasn't any more broken in practice, since even one slot in the
wrong state would keep WaitForTerminatingWorkers from terminating.

In v10 and later, introduce an explicit T_WorkerStatus value for
worker-not-started, in hopes of preventing future oversights of the
same ilk.  Before that, just document that WRKR_TERMINATED is supposed
to cover that case (partly because it wasn't actively broken, and
partly because the enum is exposed outside parallel.c in those branches,
so there's microscopically more risk involved in changing it).
In all branches, introduce a WORKER_IS_RUNNING status test macro
to hide which T_WorkerStatus values mean that, and be more careful
not to access ParallelSlot fields till we're sure they're valid.

Per report from Vignesh C, though this is my patch not his.

43a648f57c In postgres_fdw, don't try to ship MULTIEXPR updates to remote server.
In a statement like "UPDATE remote_tab SET (x,y) = (SELECT ...)",
we'd conclude that the statement could be directly executed remotely,
because the sub-SELECT is in a resjunk tlist item that's not examined
for shippability.  Currently that ends up crashing if the sub-SELECT
contains any remote Vars.  Prevent the crash by deeming MULTIEXEC
Params to be unshippable.

This is a bit of a brute-force solution, since if the sub-SELECT
*doesn't* contain any remote Vars, the current execution technology
would work; but that's not a terribly common use-case for this syntax,
I think.  In any case, we generally don't try to ship sub-SELECTs, so
it won't surprise anybody that this doesn't end up as a remote direct
update.  I'd be inclined to see if that general limitation can be fixed
before worrying about this case further.

Per report from Lukáš Sobotka.

Back-patch to 9.6.  9.5 had MULTIEXPR, but we didn't try to perform
remote direct updates then, so the case didn't arise anyway.

451f50813b Fix an oversight in commit 4c70098ff.
I had supposed that the from_char_seq_search() call sites were
all passing the constant arrays you'd expect them to pass ...
but on looking closer, the one for DY format was passing the
days[] array not days_short[].  This accidentally worked because
the day abbreviations in English are all the same as the first
three letters of the full day names.  However, once we took out
the "maximum comparison length" logic, it stopped working.

As penance for that oversight, add regression test cases covering
this, as well as every other switch case in DCH_from_char() that
was not reached according to the code coverage report.

Also, fold the DCH_RM and DCH_rm cases into one --- now that
seq_search is case independent, there's no need to pass different
comparison arrays for those cases.

Back-patch, as the previous commit was.

9e24575f6f Clean up formatting.c's logic for matching constant strings.
seq_search(), which is used to match input substrings to constants
such as month and day names, had a lot of bizarre and unnecessary
behaviors.  It was mostly possible to avert our eyes from that before,
but we don't want to duplicate those behaviors in the upcoming patch
to allow recognition of non-English month and day names.  So it's time
to clean this up.  In particular:

* seq_search scribbled on the input string, which is a pretty dangerous
thing to do, especially in the badly underdocumented way it was done here.
Fortunately the input string is a temporary copy, but that was being made
three subroutine levels away, making it something easy to break
accidentally.  The behavior is externally visible nonetheless, in the form
of odd case-folding in error reports about unrecognized month/day names.
The scribbling is evidently being done to save a few calls to pg_tolower,
but that's such a cheap function (at least for ASCII data) that it's
pretty pointless to worry about.  In HEAD I switched it to be
pg_ascii_tolower to ensure it is cheap in all cases; but there are corner
cases in Turkish where this'd change behavior, so leave it as pg_tolower
in the back branches.

* seq_search insisted on knowing the case form (all-upper, all-lower,
or initcap) of the constant strings, so that it didn't have to case-fold
them to perform case-insensitive comparisons.  This likewise seems like
excessive micro-optimization, given that pg_tolower is certainly very
cheap for ASCII data.  It seems unsafe to assume that we know the case
form that will come out of pg_locale.c for localized month/day names, so
it's better just to define the comparison rule as "downcase all strings
before comparing".  (The choice between downcasing and upcasing is
arbitrary so far as English is concerned, but it might not be in other
locales, so follow citext's lead here.)

* seq_search also had a parameter that'd cause it to report a match
after a maximum number of characters, even if the constant string were
longer than that.  This was not actually used because no caller passed
a value small enough to cut off a comparison.  Replicating that behavior
for localized month/day names seems expensive as well as useless, so
let's get rid of that too.

* from_char_seq_search used the maximum-length parameter to truncate
the input string in error reports about not finding a matching name.
This leads to rather confusing reports in many cases.  Worse, it is
outright dangerous if the input string isn't all-ASCII, because we
risk truncating the string in the middle of a multibyte character.
That'd lead either to delivering an illegible error message to the
client, or to encoding-conversion failures that obscure the actual
data problem.  Get rid of that in favor of truncating at whitespace
if any (a suggestion due to Alvaro Herrera).

In addition to fixing these things, I const-ified the input string
pointers of DCH_from_char and its subroutines, to make sure there
aren't any other scribbling-on-input problems.

The risk of generating a badly-encoded error message seems like
enough of a bug to justify back-patching, so patch all supported
branches.

ef33edeb58 Fix concurrent indexing operations with temporary tables
Attempting to use CREATE INDEX, DROP INDEX or REINDEX with CONCURRENTLY
on a temporary relation with ON COMMIT actions triggered unexpected
errors because those operations use multiple transactions internally to
complete their work.  Here is for example one confusing error when using
ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS:
ERROR:  index "foo" already contains data

Issues related to temporary relations and concurrent indexing are fixed
in this commit by enforcing the non-concurrent path to be taken for
temporary relations even if using CONCURRENTLY, transparently to the
user.  Using a non-concurrent path does not matter in practice as locks
cannot be taken on a temporary relation by a session different than the
one owning the relation, and the non-concurrent operation is more
effective.

The problem exists with REINDEX since v12 with the introduction of
CONCURRENTLY, and with CREATE/DROP INDEX since CONCURRENTLY exists for
those commands.  In all supported versions, this caused only confusing
error messages to be generated.  Note that with REINDEX, it was also
possible to issue a REINDEX CONCURRENTLY for a temporary relation owned
by a different session, leading to a server crash.

The idea to enforce transparently the non-concurrent code path for
temporary relations comes originally from Andres Freund.

d4c339924c Fix edge case leading to agg transitions skipping ExecAggTransReparent() calls.
The code checking whether an aggregate transition value needs to be
reparented into the current context has always only compared the
transition return value with the previous transition value by datum,
i.e. without regard for NULLness.  This normally works, because when
the transition function returns NULL (via fcinfo->isnull), it'll
return a value that won't be the same as its input value.

But there's no hard requirement that that's the case. And it turns
out, it's possible to hit this case (see discussion or reproducers),
leading to a non-null transition value not being reparented, followed
by a crash caused by that.

Instead of adding another comparison of NULLness, instead have
ExecAggTransReparent() ensure that pergroup->transValue ends up as 0
when the new transition value is NULL. That avoids having to add an
additional branch to the much more common cases of the transition
function returning the old transition value (which is a pointer in
this case), and when the new value is different, but not NULL.

In branches since 69c3936a149, also deduplicate the reparenting code
between the expression evaluation based transitions, and the path for
ordered aggregates.

208e262f92 Fix pg_dump's sigTermHandler() to use _exit() not exit().
sigTermHandler() tried to be careful to invoke only operations that
are safe to do in a signal handler.  But for some reason we forgot
that exit(3) is not among those, because it calls atexit handlers
that might do various random things.  (pg_dump itself installs no
atexit handlers, but e.g. OpenSSL does.)  That led to crashes or
lockups when attempting to terminate a parallel dump or restore
via a signal.

Fix by calling _exit() instead.

e96f30d898 Fix crash in BRIN inclusion op functions, due to missing datum copy.
The BRIN add_value() and union() functions need to make a longer-lived
copy of the argument, if they want to store it in the BrinValues struct
also passed as argument. The functions for the "inclusion operator
classes" used with box, range and inet types didn't take into account
that the union helper function might return its argument as is, without
making a copy. Check for that case, and make a copy if necessary. That
case arises at least with the range_union() function, when one of the
arguments is an 'empty' range:

CREATE TABLE brintest (n numrange);
CREATE INDEX brinidx ON brintest USING brin (n);
INSERT INTO brintest VALUES ('empty');
INSERT INTO brintest VALUES (numrange(0, 2^1000::numeric));
INSERT INTO brintest VALUES ('(-1, 0)');

SELECT brin_desummarize_range('brinidx', 0);
SELECT brin_summarize_range('brinidx', 0);

Backpatch down to 9.5, where BRIN was introduced.

45f03cfa56 Repair more failures with SubPlans in multi-row VALUES lists.
Commit 9b63c13f0 turns out to have been fundamentally misguided:
the parent node's subPlan list is by no means the only way in which
a child SubPlan node can be hooked into the outer execution state.
As shown in bug #16213 from Matt Jibson, we can also get short-lived
tuple table slots added to the outer es_tupleTable list.  At this point
I have little faith that there aren't other possible connections as
well; the long time it took to notice this problem shows that this
isn't a heavily-exercised situation.

Therefore, revert that fix, returning to the coding that passed a
NULL parent plan pointer down to the transiently-built subexpressions.
That gives us a pretty good guarantee that they won't hook into the
outer executor state in any way.  But then we need some other solution
to make SubPlans work.  Adopt the solution speculated about in the
previous commit's log message: do expression initialization at plan
startup for just those VALUES rows containing SubPlans, abandoning the
goal of reclaiming memory intra-query for those rows.  In practice it
seems unlikely that queries containing a vast number of VALUES rows
would be using SubPlans in them, so this should not give up much.

(BTW, this test case also refutes my claim in connection with the prior
commit that the issue only arises with use of LATERAL.  That was just
wrong: some variants of SubLink always produce SubPlans.)

As with previous patch, back-patch to all supported branches.

cdb14154bb Set ReorderBufferTXN->final_lsn more eagerly
... specifically, set it incrementally as each individual change is
spilled down to disk.  This way, it is set correctly when the
transaction disappears without trace, ie. without leaving an XACT_ABORT
wal record.  (This happens when the server crashes midway through a
transaction.)

Failing to have final_lsn prevents ReorderBufferRestoreCleanup() from
working, since it needs the final_lsn in order to know the endpoint of
its iteration through spilled files.

Commit df9f682c7bf8 already tried to fix the problem, but it didn't set
the final_lsn in all cases.  Revert that, since it's no longer needed.

fd87262de5 Make rewriter prevent auto-updates on views with conditional INSTEAD rules.
A view with conditional INSTEAD rules and no unconditional INSTEAD
rules or INSTEAD OF triggers is not auto-updatable. Previously we
relied on a check in the executor to catch this, but that's
problematic since the planner may fail to properly handle such a query
and thus return a particularly unhelpful error to the user, before
reaching the executor check.

Instead, trap this in the rewriter and report the correct error there.
Doing so also allows us to include more useful error detail than the
executor check can provide. This doesn't change the existing behaviour
of updatable views; it merely ensures that useful error messages are
reported when a view isn't updatable.

Per report from Pengzhou Tang, though not adopting that suggested fix.

2dd10477cb Fix edge-case crashes and misestimation in range containment selectivity.
When estimating the selectivity of "range_var <@ range_constant" or
"range_var @> range_constant", if the upper (or respectively lower)
bound of the range_constant was above the last bin of the range_var's
histogram, the code would access uninitialized memory and potentially
crash (though it seems the probability of a crash is quite low).
Handle the endpoint cases explicitly to fix that.

While at it, be more paranoid about the possibility of getting NaN
or other silly results from the range type's subdiff function.
And improve some comments.

Ordinarily we'd probably add a regression test case demonstrating
the bug in unpatched code.  But it's too hard to get it to crash
reliably because of the uninitialized-memory dependence, so skip that.

Per bug #16122 from Adam Scott.  It's been broken from the beginning,
