ba27151d1e Fix failures to ignore \r when reading Windows-style newlines.
libpq failed to ignore Windows-style newlines in connection service files.
This normally wasn't a problem on Windows itself, because fgets() would
convert \r\n to just \n.  But if libpq were running inside a program that
changes the default fopen mode to binary, it would see the \r's and think
they were data.  In any case, it's project policy to ignore \r in text
files unconditionally, because people sometimes try to use files with
DOS-style newlines on Unix machines, where the C library won't hide that
from us.

Hence, adjust parseServiceFile() to ignore \r as well as \n at the end of
the line.  In HEAD, go a little further and make it ignore all trailing
whitespace, to match what it's always done with leading whitespace.

In HEAD, also run around and fix up everyplace where we have
newline-chomping code to make all those places look consistent and
uniformly drop \r.  It is not clear whether any of those changes are
fixing live bugs.  Most of the non-cosmetic changes are in places that
are reading popen output, and the jury is still out as to whether popen
on Windows can return \r\n.  (The Windows-specific code in pipe_read_line
seems to think so, but our lack of support for this elsewhere suggests
maybe it's not a problem in practice.)  Hence, I desisted from applying
those changes to back branches, except in run_ssl_passphrase_command()
which is new enough and little-tested enough that we'd probably not have
heard about any problems there.

Tom Lane and Michael Paquier, per bug #15827 from Jorge Gustavo Rocha.
Back-patch the parseServiceFile() change to all supported branches,
and the run_ssl_passphrase_command() change to v11 where that was added.

0a9ba5baac Fix contrib/sepgsql test policy to work with latest SELinux releases.
As of Fedora 30, it seems that the system-provided macros for setting
up user privileges in SELinux policies don't grant the ability to read
/etc/passwd, as they formerly did.  This restriction breaks psql
(which tries to use getpwuid() to obtain the user name it's running
under) and thereby the contrib/sepgsql regression test.  Add explicit

by a race condition related to the startup of a set of standbys, where

56afeb7651 Fix daterange canonicalization for +/- infinity.
The values 'infinity' and '-infinity' are a part of the DATE type
itself, so a bound of the date 'infinity' is not the same as an
unbounded/infinite range. However, it is still wrong to try to
canonicalize such values, because adding or subtracting one has no
effect. Fix by treating 'infinity' and '-infinity' the same as
unbounded ranges for the purposes of canonicalization (but not other
purposes).

documented behavior. Note that this could be an incompatibility for

a6e7eb42d6 Fix thinko in construction of old_conpfeqop list.
This should lappend the OIDs, not lcons them; the existing code produced
a list in reversed order.  This is harmless for single-key FKs or FKs
where all the key columns are of the same type, which probably explains
how it went unnoticed.  But if those conditions are not met,
ATAddForeignKeyConstraint would make the wrong decision about whether an
existing FK needs to be revalidated.  I think it would almost always err
in the safe direction by revalidating a constraint that didn't need it.
You could imagine scenarios where the pfeqop check was fooled by
swapping the types of two FK columns in one ALTER TABLE, but that case
would probably be rejected by other tests, so it might be impossible to
get to the worst-case scenario where an FK should be revalidated and
isn't.  (And even then, it's likely to be fine, unless there are weird
inconsistencies in the equality behavior of the replacement types.)
However, this is a performance bug at least.

Noted while poking around to see whether lcons calls could be converted
to lappend.

This bug is old, dating to commit cb3a7c2b9, so back-patch to all
supported branches.

388d05a5e1 Don't remove surplus columns from GROUP BY for inheritance parents
d4c3a156c added code to remove columns that were not part of a table's
PRIMARY KEY constraint from the GROUP BY clause when all the primary key
columns were present in the group by.  This is fine to do since we know
that there will only be one row per group coming from this relation.
However, the logic failed to consider inheritance parent relations.  These
can have child relations without a primary key, but even if they did, they
could duplicate one of the parent's rows or one from another child
relation.  In this case, those additional GROUP BY columns are required.

Fix this by disabling the optimization for inheritance parent tables.
In v11 and beyond, partitioned tables are fine since partitions cannot
overlap and before v11 partitioned tables could not have a primary key.

5329606693 Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.0 and newer versions in MSVC scripts
Up to now, the MSVC build scripts are able to support only one fixed
version of OpenSSL, and they lacked logic to detect the version of
OpenSSL a given compilation of Postgres is linking to (currently 1.0.2,
the latest LTS of upstream which will be EOL'd at the end of 2019).

This commit adds more logic to detect the version of OpenSSL used by a
build and makes use of it to add support for compilation with OpenSSL
1.1.0 which requires a new set of compilation flags to work properly.

The supported OpenSSL installers have changed their library layer with
various library renames with the upgrade to 1.1.0, making the logic a
bit more complicated.  The scripts are now able to adapt to the new
world order.

da1041fc3a Further fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE's handling of indexes and index constraints.
This patch reverts all the code changes of commit e76de8861, which turns
out to have been seriously misguided.  We can't wait till later to compute
the definition string for an index; we must capture that before applying
the data type change for any column it depends on, else ruleutils.c will
deliverr wrong/misleading results.  (This fine point was documented
nowhere, of course.)

I'd also managed to forget that ATExecAlterColumnType executes once per
ALTER COLUMN TYPE clause, not once per statement; which resulted in the
code being basically completely broken for any case in which multiple ALTER
COLUMN TYPE clauses are applied to a table having non-constraint indexes
that must be rebuilt.  Through very bad luck, none of the existing test
cases nor the ones added by e76de8861 caught that, but of course it was
soon found in the field.

The previous patch also had an implicit assumption that if a constraint's
index had a dependency on a table column, so would the constraint --- but
that isn't actually true, so it didn't fix such cases.

Instead of trying to delete unneeded index dependencies later, do the
is-there-a-constraint lookup immediately on seeing an index dependency,
and switch to remembering the constraint if so.  In the unusual case of
multiple column dependencies for a constraint index, this will result in
duplicate constraint lookups, but that's not that horrible compared to all
the other work that happens here.  Besides, such cases did not work at all
before, so it's hard to argue that they're performance-critical for anyone.

Per bug #15865 from Keith Fiske.  As before, back-patch to all supported
branches.

9895e3a36a Fix spinlock assembly code for MIPS so it works on MIPS r6.
Original MIPS-I processors didn't have the LL/SC instructions (nor any
other userland synchronization primitive).  If the build toolchain
targets that ISA variant by default, as an astonishingly large fraction
of MIPS platforms still do, the assembler won't take LL/SC without
coercion in the form of a ".set mips2" instruction.  But we issued that
unconditionally, making it an ISA downgrade for chips later than MIPS2.
That breaks things for the latest MIPS r6 ISA, which encodes these
instructions differently.  Adjust the code so we don't change ISA level
if it's >= 2.

Note that this patch doesn't change what happens on an actual MIPS-I
processor: either the kernel will emulate these instructions
transparently, or you'll get a SIGILL failure.  That tradeoff seemed
fine in 2002 when this code was added (cf 3cbe6b247), and it's even
more so today when MIPS-I is basically extinct.  But let's add a
comment about that.

0ba35c7c9f Avoid spurious deadlocks when upgrading a tuple lock
This puts back reverted commit de87a084c0a5, with some bug fixes.

When two (or more) transactions are waiting for transaction T1 to release a
tuple-level lock, and transaction T1 upgrades its lock to a higher level, a
spurious deadlock can be reported among the waiting transactions when T1
finishes.  The simplest example case seems to be:

T1: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
Y: select id from job where name = 'a' for update; -- starts waiting for T1
Z: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
T1: update job set name = 'b' where id = 1;
Z: update job set name = 'c' where id = 1; -- starts waiting for T1
T1: rollback;

At this point, transaction Y is rolled back on account of a deadlock: Y
holds the heavyweight tuple lock and is waiting for the Xmax to be released,
while Z holds part of the multixact and tries to acquire the heavyweight
lock (per protocol) and goes to sleep; once T1 releases its part of the
multixact, Z is awakened only to be put back to sleep on the heavyweight
lock that Y is holding while sleeping.  Kaboom.

This can be avoided by having Z skip the heavyweight lock acquisition.  As
far as I can see, the biggest downside is that if there are multiple Z
transactions, the order in which they resume after T1 finishes is not
guaranteed.

Backpatch to 9.6.  The patch applies cleanly on 9.5, but the new tests don't
work there (because isolationtester is not smart enough), so I'm not going
to risk it.

5f5b6667eb Prefer timezone name "UTC" over alternative spellings.
tzdb 2019a made "UCT" a link to the "UTC" zone rather than a separate
zone with its own abbreviation. Unfortunately, our code for choosing a
timezone in initdb has an arbitrary preference for names earlier in
the alphabet, and so it would choose the spelling "UCT" over "UTC"
when the system is running on a UTC zone.

Commit 23bd3cec6 was backpatched in order to address this issue, but
that code helps only when /etc/localtime exists as a symlink, and does
nothing to help on systems where /etc/localtime is a copy of a zone
file (as is the standard setup on FreeBSD and probably some other
platforms too) or when /etc/localtime is simply absent (giving UTC as
the default).

Accordingly, add a preference for the spelling "UTC", such that if
multiple zone names have equally good content matches, we prefer that
name before applying the existing arbitrary rules. Also add a slightly
lower preference for "Etc/UTC"; lower because that preserves the
previous behaviour of choosing the shorter name, but letting us still
choose "Etc/UTC" over "Etc/UCT" when both exist but "UTC" does
not (not common, but I've seen it happen).

Backpatch all the way, because the tzdb change that sparked this issue
is in those branches too.

75b0f21e1b Attempt to identify system timezone by reading /etc/localtime symlink.
On many modern platforms, /etc/localtime is a symlink to a file within the
IANA database.  Reading the symlink lets us find out the name of the system
timezone directly, without going through the brute-force search embodied in
scan_available_timezones().  This shortens the runtime of initdb by some
tens of ms, which is helpful for the buildfarm, and it also allows us to
reliably select the same zone name the system was actually configured for,
rather than possibly choosing one of IANA's many zone aliases.  (For
example, in a system configured for "Asia/Tokyo", the brute-force search
would not choose that name but its alias "Japan", on the grounds of the
latter string being shorter.  More surprisingly, "Navajo" is preferred
to either "America/Denver" or "US/Mountain", as seen in an old complaint
from Josh Berkus.)

If /etc/localtime doesn't exist, or isn't a symlink, or we can't make
sense of its contents, or the contents match a zone we know but that
zone doesn't match the observed behavior of localtime(), fall back to
the brute-force search.

Also, tweak initdb so that it prints the zone name it selected.

In passing, replace the last few references to the "Olson" database in
code comments with "IANA", as that's been our preferred term since
commit b2cbced9e.

Back-patch of commit 23bd3cec6.  The original intention was to not
back-patch, since this can result in cosmetic behavioral changes ---
for example, on my own workstation initdb now chooses "America/New_York",
where it used to prefer "US/Eastern" which is equivalent and shorter.
However, our hand has been more or less forced by tzdb update 2019a,
which made the "UCT" zone fully equivalent to "UTC".  Our old code
now prefers "UCT" on the grounds of it being alphabetically first,
and that's making nobody happy.  Choosing the alias indicated by
/etc/localtime is a more defensible behavior.  (Users who don't like
the results can always force the decision by setting the TZ environment
variable before running initdb.)

Patch by me, per a suggestion from Robert Haas; review by Michael Paquier

cb2398d806 Avoid spurious deadlocks when upgrading a tuple lock
When two (or more) transactions are waiting for transaction T1 to release a
tuple-level lock, and transaction T1 upgrades its lock to a higher level, a
spurious deadlock can be reported among the waiting transactions when T1
finishes.  The simplest example case seems to be:

T1: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
Y: select id from job where name = 'a' for update; -- starts waiting for X
Z: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
T1: update job set name = 'b' where id = 1;
Z: update job set name = 'c' where id = 1; -- starts waiting for X
T1: rollback;

At this point, transaction Y is rolled back on account of a deadlock: Y
holds the heavyweight tuple lock and is waiting for the Xmax to be released,
while Z holds part of the multixact and tries to acquire the heavyweight
lock (per protocol) and goes to sleep; once X releases its part of the
multixact, Z is awakened only to be put back to sleep on the heavyweight
lock that Y is holding while sleeping.  Kaboom.

This can be avoided by having Z skip the heavyweight lock acquisition.  As
far as I can see, the biggest downside is that if there are multiple Z
transactions, the order in which they resume after X finishes is not
guaranteed.

Backpatch to 9.6.  The patch applies cleanly on 9.5, but the new tests don't
work there (because isolationtester is not smart enough), so I'm not going
to risk it.

1ade21e7fa postgres_fdw: Account for triggers in non-direct remote UPDATE planning.
Previously, in postgresPlanForeignModify, we planned an UPDATE operation
on a foreign table so that we transmit only columns that were explicitly
targets of the UPDATE, so as to avoid unnecessary data transmission, but
if there were BEFORE ROW UPDATE triggers on the foreign table, those
triggers might change values for non-target columns, in which case we
would miss sending changed values for those columns.  Prevent optimizing
away transmitting all columns if there are BEFORE ROW UPDATE triggers on
the foreign table.

This is an oversight in commit 7cbe57c34 which added triggers on foreign
tables, so apply the patch all the way back to 9.4 where that came in.

457dab1e7b Doc: improve description of allowed spellings for Boolean input.
datatype.sgml failed to explain that boolin() accepts any unique
prefix of the basic input strings.  Indeed it was actively misleading
because it called out a few minimal prefixes without mentioning that
there were more valid inputs.

I also felt that it wasn't doing anybody any favors by conflating
SQL key words, valid Boolean input, and string literals containing
valid Boolean input.  Rewrite in hopes of reducing the confusion.

ad3e61b280 Fix incorrect printing of queries with duplicated join names.
Given a query in which multiple JOIN nodes used the same alias
(which'd necessarily be in different sub-SELECTs), ruleutils.c
would assign the JOIN nodes distinct aliases for clarity ...
but then it forgot to print the modified aliases when dumping
the JOIN nodes themselves.  This results in a dump/reload hazard
for views, because the emitted query is flat-out incorrect:
Vars will be printed with table names that have no referent.

This has been wrong for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

77d45b790e Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE failure with a partial exclusion constraint.
ATExecAlterColumnType failed to consider the possibility that an index
that needs to be rebuilt might be a child of a constraint that needs to be
rebuilt.  We missed this so far because usually a constraint index doesn't
have a direct dependency on its table, just on the constraint object.
But if there's a WHERE clause, then dependency analysis of the WHERE
clause results in direct dependencies on the column(s) mentioned in WHERE.
This led to trying to drop and rebuild both the constraint and its
underlying index.

In v11/HEAD, we successfully drop both the index and the constraint,
and then try to rebuild both, and of course the second rebuild hits a
duplicate-index-name problem.  Before v11, it fails with obscure messages
about a missing relation OID, due to trying to drop the index twice.

This is essentially the same kind of problem noted in commit
20bef2c31: the possible dependency linkages are broader than what
ATExecAlterColumnType was designed for.  It was probably OK when
written, but it's certainly been broken since the introduction of
partial exclusion constraints.  Fix by adding an explicit check
for whether any of the indexes-to-be-rebuilt belong to any of the
constraints-to-be-rebuilt, and ignoring any that do.

In passing, fix a latent bug introduced by commit 8b08f7d48: in
get_constraint_index() we must "continue" not "break" when rejecting
a relation of a wrong relkind.  This is harmless today because we don't
expect that code path to be taken anyway; but if there ever were any
relations to be ignored, the existing coding would have an extremely
undesirable dependency on the order of pg_depend entries.

Also adjust a couple of obsolete comments.

Per bug #15835 from Yaroslav Schekin.  Back-patch to all supported
branches.

ff1a25601e Fix handling of COMMENT for domain constraints
For a non-superuser, changing a comment on a domain constraint was
leading to a cache lookup failure as the code tried to perform the
ownership lookup on the constraint OID itself, thinking that it was a
type, but this check needs to happen on the type the domain constraint
relies on.  As the type a domain constraint relies on can be guessed
directly based on the constraint OID, first fetch its type OID and
perform the ownership on it.

This is broken since 7eca575, which has split the handling of comments
for table constraints and domain constraints, so back-patch down to
9.5.

b8607e15e0 Don't access catalogs to validate GUCs when not connected to a DB.
Vignesh found this bug in the check function for
default_table_access_method's check hook, but that was just copied
from older GUCs. Investigation by Michael and me then found the bug in
further places.

When not connected to a database (e.g. in a walsender connection), we
cannot perform (most) GUC checks that need database access. Even when
only shared tables are needed, unless they're
nailed (c.f. RelationCacheInitializePhase2()), they cannot be accessed
without pg_class etc. being present.

Fix by extending the existing IsTransactionState() checks to also
check for MyDatabaseOid.
