... to fix bugs when the referenced table is partitioned.
The catalog representation we chose for foreign keys connecting
partitioned tables (in commit f56f8f8da6af) is inconvenient, in the
sense that a standalone table has a different way to represent the
constraint when referencing a partitioned table, than when the same
table becomes a partition (and vice versa). Because of this, we need to
create additional catalog rows on detach (pg_constraint and pg_trigger),
and remove them on attach. We were doing some of those things, but not
all of them, leading to missing catalog rows in certain cases.
The worst problem seems to be that we are missing action triggers after
detaching a partition, which means that you could update/delete rows
from the referenced partitioned table that still had referencing rows on
that table, the server failing to throw the required errors.
!!!
Note that this means existing databases with FKs that reference
partitioned tables might have rows that break relational integrity, on
tables that were once partitions on the referencing side of the FK.
Another possible problem is that trying to reattach a table
that had been detached would fail indicating that internal triggers
cannot be found, which from the user's point of view is nonsensical.
In branches 15 and above, we fix this by creating a new helper function
addFkConstraint() which is in charge of creating a standalone
pg_constraint row, and repurposing addFkRecurseReferencing() and
addFkRecurseReferenced() so that they're only the recursive routine for
each side of the FK, and they call addFkConstraint() to create
pg_constraint at each partitioning level and add the necessary triggers.
These new routines can be used during partition creation, partition
attach and detach, and foreign key creation. This reduces redundant
code and simplifies the flow.
In branches 14 and 13, we have a much simpler fix that consists on
simply removing the constraint on detach. The reason is that those
branches are missing commit f4566345cf40, which reworked the way this
works in a way that we didn't consider back-patchable at the time.
We opted to leave branch 12 alone, because it's different from branch 13
enough that the fix doesn't apply; and because it is going in EOL mode
very soon, patching it now might be worse since there's no way to undo
the damage if it goes wrong.
Existing databases might need to be repaired.
In the future we might want to rethink the catalog representation to
avoid this problem, but for now the code seems to do what's required to
make the constraints operate correctly.

The finished transaction list can contain XIDs that are older than the
serializable global xmin. It's a short-lived state;
ClearOldPredicateLocks() removes any such transactions from the list,
and it's called whenever the global xmin advances. But if another
backend calls SummarizeOldestCommittedSxact() in that window, it will
call SerialAdd() on an XID that's older than the global xmin, or if
there are no more transactions running, when global xmin is
invalid. That trips the assertion in SerialAdd().

After repartitioning the inner side of a hash join that would have
exceeded the allowed size, we check if all the tuples from a parent
partition moved to one child partition. That is evidence that it
contains duplicate keys and later attempts to repartition will also
fail, so we should give up trying to limit memory (for lack of a better
fallback strategy).
A thinko prevented the check from working correctly in partition 0 (the
one that is partially loaded into memory already). After
repartitioning, we should check for extreme skew if the *parent*
partition's space_exhausted flag was set, not the child partition's.
The consequence was repeated futile repartitioning until per-partition
data exceeded various limits including "ERROR: invalid DSA memory alloc
request size 1811939328", OS allocation failure, or temporary disk space
errors. (We could also do something about some of those symptoms, but
that's material for separate patches.)
This problem only became likely when PostgreSQL 16 introduced support
for Parallel Hash Right/Full Join, allowing NULL keys into the hash
table. Repartitioning always leaves NULL in partition 0, no matter how
many times you do it, because the hash value is all zero bits. That's
unlikely for other hashed values, but they might still have caused
wasted extra effort before giving up.

Commit 2dc1deaea turns out to have been still a brick shy of a load,
because CALL statements executing within a plpgsql exception block
could still pass the wrong snapshot to stable functions within the
CALL's argument list. That happened because standard_ProcessUtility
forces isAtomicContext to true if IsTransactionBlock is true, which
it always will be inside a subtransaction. Then ExecuteCallStmt
would think it does not need to push a new snapshot --- but
_SPI_execute_plan didn't do so either, since it thought it was in
nonatomic mode.
The best fix for this seems to be for _SPI_execute_plan to operate
in atomic execution mode if IsSubTransaction() is true, even when the
SPI context as a whole is non-atomic. This makes _SPI_execute_plan
have the same rules about when non-atomic execution is allowed as
_SPI_commit/_SPI_rollback have about when COMMIT/ROLLBACK are allowed,
which seems appropriately symmetric. (If anyone ever tries to allow
COMMIT/ROLLBACK inside a subtransaction, this would all need to be
rethought ... but I'm unconvinced that such a thing could be logically
consistent at all.)
For further consistency, also check IsSubTransaction() in
SPI_inside_nonatomic_context. That does not matter for its
one present-day caller StartTransaction, which can't be reached
inside a subtransaction. But if any other callers ever arise,
they'd presumably want this definition.

Commit a4ccc1cef introduced the Generation Context and modified the
logical decoding process to use a Generation Context with a fixed
block size of 8MB for storing tuple data decoded during logical
decoding (i.e., rb->tup_context). Several reports have indicated that
the logical decoding process can be terminated due to
out-of-memory (OOM) situations caused by excessive memory usage in
rb->tup_context.
This issue can occur when decoding a workload involving several
concurrent transactions, including a long-running transaction that
modifies tuples. By design, the Generation Context does not free a
memory block until all chunks within that block are
released. Consequently, if tuples modified by the long-running
transaction are stored across multiple memory blocks, these blocks
remain allocated until the long-running transaction completes, leading
to substantial memory fragmentation. The memory usage during logical
decoding, tracked by rb->size, does not account for memory
fragmentation, resulting in potentially much higher memory consumption
than the value of the logical_decoding_work_mem parameter.
Various improvement strategies were discussed in the relevant
thread. This change reduces the block size of the Generation Context
used in rb->tup_context from 8MB to 8kB. This modification
significantly decreases the likelihood of substantial memory
fragmentation occurring and is relatively straightforward to
backport. Performance testing across multiple platforms has confirmed
that this change will not introduce any performance degradation that
would impact actual operation.

find_computable_ec_member() had the wrong mental model of what
its primary caller prepare_sort_from_pathkeys() would do with
the selected EquivalenceClass member expression. We will not
compute the EC expression in a plan node atop the one returning
the passed-in targetlist; rather, the EC expression will be
computed as an additional column of that targetlist. So any
Var or quasi-Var used in the given tlist is also available to the
EC expression. In simple cases this makes no difference because
the given tlist is just a list of Vars or quasi-Vars --- but if
we are considering an appendrel member produced by flattening
a UNION ALL, the tlist may contain expressions, resulting in
failure to match and a "could not find pathkey item to sort"
error.
To fix, we can flatten both the tlist and the EC members with
pull_var_clause(), and then just check for subset-ness, so
that the code is actually shorter than before.

pg_cursor() supposed that any Portal it finds in the hash table must
have sourceText set up, but there's an edge case where that is not so.
A newly-created Portal has sourceText = NULL, and that doesn't change
until PortalDefineQuery is called. In SPI_cursor_open_internal,
we perform GetCachedPlan between CreatePortal and PortalDefineQuery,
and it's possible for user-defined code to execute during that
planning and cause a fetch from the pg_cursors view, resulting in a
null-pointer-dereference crash. (It looks like the same could happen
in exec_bind_message, but I've not tried to provoke a failure there.)
I considered trying to fix this by setting sourceText sooner, but
there may be instances of this same calling pattern in extensions,
and we couldn't be sure they'd get the memo promptly. It seems
better to redefine pg_cursor as not showing Portals that have
not yet had PortalDefineQuery called on them, which we can do by
just skipping them if sourceText is still NULL.
(Before a1c692358, pg_cursor would instead return a row with NULL
in the statement column. We could revert to that behavior but it
doesn't really seem like a better definition, especially since our
documentation doesn't suggest that the column could be NULL.)

Use pqParseIntParam (nee parse_int_param) instead of using strtol

other similar cases.
This seems to be an oversight in commit e7a221797, which introduced
parse_int_param. That fixed places that were using atoi(), but missed
this place which was randomly using strtol() instead.
Ordinarily I'd consider this minor cleanup not worth back-patching.
However, it seems that ecpg assumes it can add trailing whitespace

COMMIT PREPARED removes on-disk 2PC files near its end, but the state
checked if a file is on-disk or not gets read from shared memory while
not holding the two-phase state lock.
Because of that, there was a small window where a second backend doing a
PREPARE TRANSACTION could reuse the GlobalTransaction put back into the
2PC free list by the COMMIT PREPARED, overwriting the "ondisk" flag read
afterwards by the COMMIT PREPARED to decide if its on-disk two-phase
state file should be removed, preventing the file deletion.
This commit fixes this issue so as the "ondisk" flag in the
GlobalTransaction is read while holding the two-phase state lock, not
from shared memory after its entry has been added to the free list.
Orphaned two-phase state files flushed to disk after a checkpoint are
discarded at the beginning of recovery. However, a truncation of
pg_xact/ would make the startup process issue a FATAL when it cannot
read the SLRU page holding the state of the transaction whose 2PC file
was orphaned, which is a necessary step to decide if the 2PC file should
be removed or not. Removing manually the file would be necessary in
this case.

In existing releases of libxml2, xmlXPathCompile can be driven
to stack overflow because it fails to protect itself against
too-deeply-nested input. While there is an upstream fix as of
yesterday, it will take years for that to propagate into all
shipping versions. In the meantime, we can protect our own
usages basically for free by calling xmlXPathCtxtCompile instead.
(The actual bug is that libxml2 keeps its nesting counter in the
xmlXPathContext, and its parsing code was willing to just skip
counting nesting levels if it didn't have a context. So if we supply
a context, all is well. It seems odd actually that it works at all
to not supply a context, because this means that XPath parsing does
not have access to XML namespace info. Apparently libxml2 never
checks namespaces until runtime? Anyway, this seems like good
future-proofing even if its only immediate effect is to dodge a bug.)
Sadly, this hack only offers protection with libxml2 2.9.11 and newer.
Before that there are multiple similar problems, so if you are
processing untrusted XML it behooves you to get a newer version.
But we have some pretty old libxml2 in the buildfarm, so it seems
impractical to add a regression test to verify this fix.

I managed to break this test in two different ways in commit

First, the output of the new call to tuple_data_split() on the test
sequence is dependent on endianness. This is fixed by setting a
special start value for the test sequence that produces the same
output regardless of the endianness of the machine.
Second, on versions older than v15, the new test case fails under
"force_parallel_mode = regress" with the following error:
ERROR: cannot access temporary tables during a parallel operation
This is because pageinspect's disk-accessing functions are
incorrectly marked PARALLEL SAFE on versions older than v15 (see
commit aeaaf520f4 for details). This one is fixed by changing the
test sequence to be permanent. The only reason it was previously
marked temporary was to avoid needing a DROP SEQUENCE command at
the end of the test. Unlike some other tests in this file, the use
of a permanent sequence here shouldn't result in any test

check_agglevels_and_constraints() asserted that if we find an
aggregate function in an EXPR_KIND_FROM_SUBSELECT expression, the
expression must be in a LATERAL subquery. Alexander Lakhin found a
case where that's not so: because of the odd scoping rules for NEW/OLD
within a rule, a reference to NEW/OLD could cause an aggregate to be
considered top-level even though it's in an unmarked sub-select.
The error message that would be thrown seems sufficiently on-point,
so just remove the Assert. (Hence, this is not a bug for production
builds.)
This Assert was added by me in commit eaccfded9 (9.3 era). It looks
like I put it in to cross-check that the new logic for detecting
misplaced aggregates (using agglevelsup) caught the same cases that a
previous check on p_lateral_active did. So there might have been some
related misbehavior before eaccfded9 ... but that's very ancient
history by now, so I didn't dig any deeper.
Per bug #18608 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported
branches.

The first test was sensitive to the insert LSN after setting up the
catalogs, which depended on environmental things like the locales on the
OS and usernames. Switch to a new WAL file before the first test, as a
simple way to put every computer into the same state.
Back-patch to all supported releases.

This change improves the description of the
restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind parameter in guc_table.c and the
documentation for better clarity.
Backpatch to 12, where this GUC parameter was introduced.

This does not make sense. It would write the output of the USING
clause into the converted column, which would violate the generation
expression. This adds a check to error out if this is specified.
There was a test for this, but that test errored out for a different
reason, so it was not effective.

The descriptions for ProcArrayGroupUpdate and XactGroupUpdate claim
that these events mean we are waiting for the group leader "at end
of a parallel operation," but neither pertains to parallel
operations. This commit reverts these descriptions to their
wording before commit 3048898e73, i.e., "end of a parallel
operation" is changed to "transaction end."
