Currently, when source data contains unexpected data regarding data type or
range, the entire COPY fails. However, in some cases, such data can be ignored
and just copying normal data is preferable.
This commit adds a new option SAVE_ERROR_TO, which specifies where to save the
error information. When this option is specified, COPY skips soft errors and
continues copying.
Currently, SAVE_ERROR_TO only supports "none". This indicates error information
is not saved and COPY just skips the unexpected data and continues running.
Later works are expected to add more choices, such as 'log' and 'table'.

Previously, identity columns were disallowed on partitioned tables.
(The reason was mainly that no one had gotten around to working
through all the details to make it work.) This makes it work now.
Some details on the behavior:
* A newly created partition inherits identity property
The partitions of a partitioned table are integral part of the
partitioned table. A partition inherits identity columns from the
partitioned table. An identity column of a partition shares the
identity space with the corresponding column of the partitioned
table. In other words, the same identity column across all
partitions of a partitioned table share the same identity space.
This is effected by sharing the same underlying sequence.
When INSERTing directly into a partition, the sequence associated
with the topmost partitioned table is used to calculate the value of
the corresponding identity column.
In regular inheritance, identity columns and their properties in a
child table are independent of those in its parent tables. A child
table does not inherit identity columns or their properties
automatically from the parent. (This is unchanged.)
* Attached partition inherits identity column
A table being attached as a partition inherits the identity property
from the partitioned table. This should be fine since we expect
that the partition table's column has the same type as the
partitioned table's corresponding column. If the table being
attached is a partitioned table, the identity properties are
propagated down its partition hierarchy.
An identity column in the partitioned table is also marked as NOT
NULL. The corresponding column in the partition needs to be marked
as NOT NULL for the attach to succeed.
* Drop identity property when detaching partition
A partition's identity column shares the identity space
(i.e. underlying sequence) as the corresponding column of the
partitioned table. If a partition is detached it can longer share
the identity space as before. Hence the identity columns of the
partition being detached loose their identity property.
When identity of a column of a regular table is dropped it retains
the NOT NULL constraint that came with the identity property.
Similarly the columns of the partition being detached retain the NOT
NULL constraints that came with identity property, even though the
identity property itself is lost.
The sequence associated with the identity property is linked to the
partitioned table (and not the partition being detached). That
sequence is not dropped as part of detach operation.
* Partitions with their own identity columns are not allowed.
* The usual ALTER operations (add identity column, add identity
property to existing column, alter properties of an indentity
column, drop identity property) are supported for partitioned
tables. Changing a column only in a partitioned table or a
partition is not allowed; the change needs to be applied to the
whole partition hierarchy.

When ExecBRUpdateTriggers switches to a new target tuple as a result
of the EvalPlanQual logic, it must form a new proposed update tuple.
Since commit 86dc90056, that tuple (the result of
ExecGetUpdateNewTuple) has been a virtual tuple that might contain
pointers to by-ref fields of the new target tuple (in "oldslot").
However, immediately after that we materialize oldslot, causing it to
drop its buffer pin, whereupon the by-ref pointers are unsafe to use.
This is a live bug only when the new target tuple is in a different
page than the original target tuple, since we do still hold a pin on
the original one. (Before 86dc90056, there was no bug because the
EPQ plantree would hold a pin on the new target tuple; but now that's
not assured.) To fix, forcibly materialize the new tuple before we
materialize oldslot. This costs nothing since we would have done that
shortly anyway.
The real-world impact of this is probably minimal. A visible failure
could occur if the new target tuple's buffer were recycled for some
other page in the short interval before we materialize newslot within
the trigger-calling loop; but that's quite unlikely given that we'd
just touched that page. There's a larger hazard that some other
process could prune and repack that page within the window. We have
lock on the new target tuple, but that wouldn't prevent it being moved
on the page.

This changes the pg_attribute field attstattarget into a nullable
field in the variable-length part of the row. If no value is set by
the user for attstattarget, it is now null instead of previously -1.
This saves space in pg_attribute and tuple descriptors for most
practical scenarios. (ATTRIBUTE_FIXED_PART_SIZE is reduced from 108
to 104.) Also, null is the semantically more correct value.
The ANALYZE code internally continues to represent the default
statistics target by -1, so that that code can avoid having to deal
with null values. But that is now contained to the ANALYZE code.
Only the DDL code deals with attstattarget possibly null.
For system columns, the field is now always null. The ANALYZE code
skips system columns anyway.
To set a column's statistics target to the default value, the new
command form ALTER TABLE ... SET STATISTICS DEFAULT can be used. (SET
STATISTICS -1 still works.)

This feature will allow us to replicate the changes on subscriber nodes
after the upgrade.
Previously, only the subscription metadata information was preserved.
Without the list of relations and their state, it's not possible to
re-enable the subscriptions without missing some records as the list of
relations can only be refreshed after enabling the subscription (and
therefore starting the apply worker). Even if we added a way to refresh
the subscription while enabling a publication, we still wouldn't know
which relations are new on the publication side, and therefore should be
fully synced, and which shouldn't.
To preserve the subscription relations, this patch teaches pg_dump to
restore the content of pg_subscription_rel from the old cluster by using
binary_upgrade_add_sub_rel_state SQL function. This is supported only
in binary upgrade mode.
The subscription's replication origin is needed to ensure that we don't
replicate anything twice.
To preserve the replication origins, this patch teaches pg_dump to update
the replication origin along with creating a subscription by using
binary_upgrade_replorigin_advance SQL function to restore the
underlying replication origin remote LSN. This is supported only in
binary upgrade mode.
pg_upgrade will check that all the subscription relations are in 'i'
(init) or in 'r' (ready) state and will error out if that's not the case,
logging the reason for the failure. This helps to avoid the risk of any
dangling slot or origin after the upgrade.

In v16 and up (since commit afbfc0298), large object ownership
checking has been broken because object_ownercheck() didn't take care
of the discrepancy between our object-address representation of large
objects (classId == LargeObjectRelationId) and the catalog where their
ownership info is actually stored (LargeObjectMetadataRelationId).
This resulted in failures such as "unrecognized class ID: 2613"
when trying to update blob properties as a non-superuser.
Poking around for related bugs, I found that AlterObjectOwner_internal
would pass the wrong classId to the PostAlterHook in the no-op code
path where the large object already has the desired owner. Also,
recordExtObjInitPriv checked for the wrong classId; that bug is only
latent because the stanza is dead code anyway, but as long as we're
carrying it around it should be less wrong. These bugs are quite old.
In HEAD, we can reduce the scope for future bugs of this ilk by
changing AlterObjectOwner_internal's API to let the translation happen
inside that function, rather than requiring callers to know about it.
A more bulletproof fix, perhaps, would be to start using
LargeObjectMetadataRelationId as the dependency and object-address
classId for blobs. However that has substantial risk of breaking
third-party code; even within our own code, it'd create hassles
for pg_dump which would have to cope with a version-dependent
representation. For now, keep the status quo.

A REINDEX CONCURRENTLY run on a table with no indexes would always pop
the topmost snapshot from the active snapshot stack, making the snapshot
handling inconsistent between the multiple-relation and single-relation
cases. This commit slightly changes the snapshot stack handling so as a
snapshot is popped only ReindexMultipleInternal() in this case after a
relation has been reindexed, fixing a problem where an event trigger
function may need a snapshot but does not have one. This also keeps the
places where PopActiveSnapshot() is called closer to each other.
While on it, this expands the existing tests to cover all the cases that
could be faced with REINDEX commands and such event triggers, for one or
more relations, with or without indexes.
This behavior is inconsistent since 5dc92b844e, but we've never had a
need for an active snapshot at the end of a REINDEX until now.

When creating a partitioned index, the partition key must be a subset
of the index's columns. But this currently doesn't check that the
collations between the partition key and the index definition match.
So you can construct a unique index that fails to enforce uniqueness.
(This would most likely involve a nondeterministic collation, so it
would have to be crafted explicitly and is not something that would
just happen by accident.)
This patch adds the required collation check. As a result, any
previously allowed unique index that has a collation mismatch would no

contain_mutable_functions and contain_volatile_functions give
reliable answers only after expression preprocessing (specifically
eval_const_expressions). Some places understand this, but some did
not get the memo --- which is not entirely their fault, because the
problem is documented only in places far away from those functions.
Introduce wrapper functions that allow doing the right thing easily,
and add commentary in hopes of preventing future mistakes from
copy-and-paste of code that's only conditionally safe.
Two actual bugs of this ilk are fixed here. We failed to preprocess
column GENERATED expressions before checking mutability, so that the
code could fail to detect the use of a volatile function
default-argument expression, or it could reject a polymorphic function
that is actually immutable on the datatype of interest. Likewise,
column DEFAULT expressions weren't preprocessed before determining if
it's safe to apply the attmissingval mechanism. A false negative
would just result in an unnecessary table rewrite, but a false
positive could allow the attmissingval mechanism to be used in a case
where it should not be, resulting in unexpected initial values in a
new column.
In passing, re-order the steps in ComputePartitionAttrs so that its
checks for invalid column references are done before applying
expression_planner, rather than after. The previous coding would
not complain if a partition expression contains a disallowed column
reference that gets optimized away by constant folding, which seems
to me to be a behavior we do not want.

Since C99, there can be a trailing comma after the last value in an

some are even dropping the last comma if there was one. We could
nudge this all in a consistent direction if we just add the trailing
commas everywhere once.
I omitted a few places where there was a fixed "last" value that will
always stay last. I also skipped the header files of libpq and ecpg,

While at it, move the InvokeObjectPostCreateHook call for CREATE
OPERATOR to not occur until after we've fixed up commutator or negator
links as needed. The previous ordering could only be justified by
thinking of the OperatorUpd call as a kind of ALTER OPERATOR step;
but we don't call InvokeObjectPostAlterHook therein. It seems better
to let the hook see the final state of the operator object.
