The test authorization server implemented in oauth_server.py does not
listen on IPv6. Most of the time, libcurl happily falls back to IPv4
after failing its initial connection, but on NetBSD, something is
consistently showing up on the unreserved IPv6 port and causing a test
failure.
Rather than deal with dual-stack details across all test platforms,
change the issuer to enforce the use of IPv4 only. (This elicits more
punishing timeout behavior from libcurl, so it's a useful change from
the testing perspective as well.)

Commit cbc127917e introduced tracking of unpruned relids to avoid
processing pruned relations, and changed ExecInitModifyTable() to
initialize only unpruned result relations. As a result, MERGE
statements that prune all target partitions can now lead to crashes
or incorrect behavior during execution.
The crash occurs because some executor code paths rely on
ModifyTableState.resultRelInfo[0] being present and initialized,
even when no result relations remain after pruning. For example,
ExecMerge() and ExecMergeNotMatched() use the first resultRelInfo
to determine the appropriate action. Similarly,
ExecInitPartitionInfo() assumes that at least one result relation
exists.
To preserve these assumptions, ExecInitModifyTable() now includes the
first result relation in the initialized result relation list if all
result relations for that ModifyTable were pruned. To enable that,
ExecDoInitialPruning() ensures the first relation is locked if it was
pruned and locking is necessary.
To support this exception to the pruning logic, PlannedStmt now
includes a list of RT indexes identifying the first result relation
of each ModifyTable node in the plan. This allows
ExecDoInitialPruning() to check whether each such relation was
pruned and, if so, lock it if necessary.

This commit contains the basic, system-wide, infrastructure for
io_method=worker. It does not yet actually execute IO, this commit just
provides the infrastructure for running IO workers, kept separate for easier
review.
The number of IO workers can be adjusted with a PGC_SIGHUP GUC. Eventually
we'd like to make the number of workers dynamically scale up/down based on the
current "IO load".
To allow the number of IO workers to be increased without a restart, we need
to reserve PGPROC entries for the workers unconditionally. This has been
judged to be worth the cost. If it turns out to be problematic, we can
introduce a PGC_POSTMASTER GUC to control the maximum number.
As io workers might be needed during shutdown, e.g. for AIO during the
shutdown checkpoint, a new PMState phase is added. IO workers are shut down
after the shutdown checkpoint has been performed and walsender/archiver have
shut down, but before the checkpointer itself shuts down. See also

In the initial pipeline support for psql added in 41625ab8ea, \g was
used as the way to push extended query into an ongoing pipeline. \gx
was blocked.
These two meta-commands have format-related options that can be applied
when fetching a query result (expanded, etc.). As the results of a
pipeline are fetched asynchronously, not at the moment of the
meta-command execution but at the moment of a \getresults or a
\endpipeline, authorizing \g while blocking \gx leads to a confusing
implementation, making one think that psql should be smart enough to
remember the output format options defined from the time when \g or \gx
were executed. Doing so would lead to more code complications when
retrieving a batch of results. There is an extra argument other than
simplicity here: the output format options defined at the point of a
\getresults or a \endpipeline execution should be what affect the output
format for a batch of results.
To avoid any confusion, we have settled to the introduction of a new
meta-command called \sendpipeline, replacing \g when within a pipeline.
An advantage of this design is that it is possible to add new options
specific to pipelines when sending a query buffer, independent of \g
and \gx, should it prove to be necessary.
Most of the changes of this commit happen in the regression tests, where
\g is replaced by \sendpipeline. More tests are added to check that \g
is not allowed.

The problem is that ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... SET PUBLICATION ... will lead
to restarting of apply worker and after the restart, the apply worker will
use the existing slot and replication origin corresponding to the
subscription. Now, it is possible that before the restart, the origin has
not been updated, and the WAL start location points to a location before
where PUBLICATION pointed to by SET PUBLICATION doesn't exist, and that
can lead to an error like: "ERROR: publication "pub1" does not exist".
Once this error occurs, apply worker will never be able to proceed and
will always return the same error.
We decided to skip loading the publication if the publication does not
exist. The publication is loaded later and updates the relation entry when
the publication gets created.
We decided not to backpatch this as this is a behaviour change, and we don't
see field reports. This problem has been found by intermittent buildfarm
failures.

If the given input_type yields valid results from both
get_element_type and get_array_type, initArrayResultAny believed the
former and treated the input as an array type. However this is
inconsistent with what get_promoted_array_type does, leading to
situations where the output of an ARRAY() subquery is labeled with
the wrong type: it's labeled as oidvector[] but is really a 2-D
array of OID. That at least results in strange output, and can
result in crashes if further processing such as unnest() is applied.
AFAIK this is only possible with the int2vector and oidvector
types, which are special-cased to be treated mostly as true arrays
even though they aren't quite.
Fix by switching the logic to match get_promoted_array_type by
testing get_array_type not get_element_type, and remove an Assert
thereby made pointless. (We need not introduce a symmetrical
check for get_element_type in the other if-branch, because
initArrayResultArr will check it.) This restores the behavior
that existed before bac27394a introduced initArrayResultAny:
the output really is int2vector[] or oidvector[].
Comparable confusion exists when an input of an ARRAY[] construct
is int2vector or oidvector: transformArrayExpr decides it's dealing
with a multidimensional array constructor, and we end up with
something that's a multidimensional OID array but is alleged to be
of type oidvector. I have not found a crashing case here, but it's
easy to demonstrate totally-wrong results. Adjust that code so
that what you get is an oidvector[] instead, for consistency with
ARRAY() subqueries. (This change also makes these types work like
domains-over-arrays in this context, which seems correct.)

We want to support a "noreturn" decoration on more compilers besides
just GCC-compatible ones, but for that we need to move the decoration
in front of the function declaration instead of either behind it or
wherever, which is the current style afforded by GCC-style attributes.
Also rename the macro to "pg_noreturn" to be similar to the C11
standard "noreturn".
pg_noreturn is now supported on all compilers that support C11 (using
_Noreturn), as well as GCC-compatible ones (using __attribute__, as
before), as well as MSVC (using __declspec). (When PostgreSQL
requires C11, the latter two variants can be dropped.)
Now, all supported compilers effectively support pg_noreturn, so the
extra code for !HAVE_PG_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN can be dropped.
This also fixes a possible problem if third-party code includes
stdnoreturn.h, because then the current definition of
#define pg_attribute_noreturn() __attribute__((noreturn))
would cause an error.
Note that the C standard does not support a noreturn attribute on
function pointer types. So we have to drop these here. There are
only two instances at this time, so it's not a big loss. In one case,
we can make up for it by adding the pg_noreturn to a wrapper function
and adding a pg_unreachable(), in the other case, the latter was
already done before.

When pulling up a subquery, if the subquery's target list items are
used in grouping set columns, we need to wrap them in PlaceHolderVars.
This ensures that expressions retain their separate identity so that
they will match grouping set columns when appropriate.
In 90947674f, we decided to wrap subquery outputs that are non-var
expressions in PlaceHolderVars. This prevents const-simplification
from merging them into the surrounding expressions after subquery
pullup, which could otherwise lead to failing to match those
subexpressions to grouping set columns, with the effect that they'd
not go to null when expected.
However, that left some loose ends. If the subquery's target list
contains two or more identical Var expressions, we can still fail to
match the Var expression to the expected grouping set expression.
This is not related to const-simplification, but rather to how we
match expressions to lower target items in setrefs.c.
For sort/group expressions, we use ressortgroupref matching, which
works well. For other expressions, we primarily rely on comparing the
expressions to determine if they are the same. Therefore, we need a
way to prevent setrefs.c from matching the expression to some other
identical ones.
To fix, wrap all subquery outputs in PlaceHolderVars if the parent
query uses grouping sets, ensuring that they preserve their separate
identity throughout the whole planning process.

makeWholeRowVar() has different rules for constructing a
whole-row Var depending on the kind of RTE it's representing.
This turns out to be problematic because the rewriter and planner
can convert view RTEs and set-returning-function RTEs into
subquery RTEs; so a whole-row Var made during planning might
look different from one made by the parser. In isolation this
doesn't cause any problem, but if a query contains Vars made
both ways for the same varno, there are cross-checks in the
executor that will complain. This manifests for UPDATE, DELETE,
and MERGE queries that use whole-row table references.
To fix, we need makeWholeRowVar() to produce the same result
from an inlined RTE as it would have for the original. For
an inlined view, we can use RangeTblEntry.relid to detect
that this had been a view RTE. For inlined SRFs, make a
data structure definition change akin to commit 47bb9db75,
and say that we won't clear RangeTblEntry.functions until
the end of planning. That allows makeWholeRowVar() to
repeat what it would have done with the unmodified RTE.

Expose the count of index searches/index descents in EXPLAIN ANALYZE's
output for index scan/index-only scan/bitmap index scan nodes. This
information is particularly useful with scans that use ScalarArrayOp
quals, where the number of index searches can be unpredictable due to
implementation details that interact with physical index characteristics
(at least with nbtree SAOP scans, since Postgres 17 commit 5bf748b8).
The information shown also provides useful context when EXPLAIN ANALYZE
runs a plan with an index scan node that successfully applied the skip
scan optimization (set to be added to nbtree by an upcoming patch).
The instrumentation works by teaching all index AMs to increment a new
nsearches counter whenever a new index search begins. The counter is
incremented at exactly the same point that index AMs already increment
the pg_stat_*_indexes.idx_scan counter (we're counting the same event,
but at the scan level rather than the relation level). Parallel queries
have workers copy their local counter struct into shared memory when an
index scan node ends -- even when it isn't a parallel aware scan node.
An earlier version of this patch that only worked with parallel aware
scans became commit 5ead85fb (though that was quickly reverted by commit
d00107cd following "debug_parallel_query=regress" buildfarm failures).
Our approach doesn't match the approach used when tracking other index
scan related costs (e.g., "Rows Removed by Filter:"). It is comparable
to the approach used in similar cases involving costs that are only
readily accessible inside an access method, not from the executor proper
(e.g., "Heap Blocks:" output for a Bitmap Heap Scan, which was recently
enhanced to show per-worker costs by commit 5a1e6df3, using essentially
the same scheme as the one used here). It is necessary for index AMs to
have direct responsibility for maintaining the new counter, since the
counter might need to be incremented multiple times per amgettuple call
(or per amgetbitmap call). But it is also necessary for the executor
proper to manage the shared memory now used to transfer each worker's
counter struct to the leader.

This commit adds per-backend WAL statistics, providing the same
information as pg_stat_wal, except that it is now possible to know how
much WAL activity is happening in each backend rather than an overall
aggregate of all the activity. Like pg_stat_wal, the implementation
relies on pgWalUsage, tracking the difference of activity between two
reports to pgstats.
This data can be retrieved with a new system function called
pg_stat_get_backend_wal(), that returns one tuple based on the PID
provided in input. Like pg_stat_get_backend_io(), this is useful when
joined with pg_stat_activity to get a live picture of the WAL generated
for each running backend, showing how the activity is [un]balanced.
pgstat_flush_backend() gains a new flag value, able to control the flush
of the WAL stats.
This commit relies mostly on the infrastructure provided by

Recognizing the real-life complexity where columns in the table often have
functional dependencies, PostgreSQL's estimation of the number of distinct
values over a set of columns can be underestimated (or much rarely,
overestimated) when dealing with multi-clause JOIN. In the case of hash
join, it can end up with a small number of predicted hash buckets and, as
a result, picking non-optimal merge join.
To improve the situation, we introduce one additional stage of bucket size
estimation - having two or more join clauses estimator lookup for extended
statistics and use it for multicolumn estimation. Clauses are grouped into
lists, each containing expressions referencing the same relation. The result
of the multicolumn estimation made over such a list is combined with others
according to the caller's logic. Clauses that are not estimated are returned
to the caller for further estimation.

This change is dedicated to more active usage of IndexScan and parameterized
NestLoop paths in partitioned cases under an Append node, as it already works
with plain tables. As newly added regression tests demonstrate, it should
provide more smartness to the partitionwise technique.
With an indication of how many tuples are needed, it may be more meaningful
to use the 'fractional branch' subpaths of the Append path list, which are
more optimal for this specific number of tuples. Planning on a higher level,
if the optimizer needs all the tuples, it will choose non-fractional paths.
In the case when, during execution, Append needs to return fewer tuples than
declared by tuple_fraction, it would not be harmful to use the 'intermediate'
variant of paths. However, it will earn a considerable profit if a sensible
set of tuples is selected.
The change of the existing regression test demonstrates the positive outcome
of this feature: instead of scanning the whole table, the optimizer prefers
to use a parameterized scan, being aware of the only single tuple the join

The first failed connection tests the "regular" connections limit, not
the reserved limit.
In the second failed connection, the username doesn't really matter,
but since the previous successful connections used "regress_reserved",
it seems weird to switch back to "regress_regular" for the
expected-to-fail attempt.

The query introduced in 8b532771a0 is proving to have ordering issues
under at least the locale cs_CZ. This commit updates the query to use a
stricter ordering.
Per reports from buildfarm members hippopotamus and jay.
pg_stat_io returns a set of tuples based on a combination of three
properties (BackendType, IOObject and IOContext) and
pgstat_tracks_io_object() to decide if a BackendType should return a
tuple based on a pair made of an IOObject and an IOContext.
This commit adds a regression test to track all the combinations
supported. This is useful to know which tuples are relevant when adding
a new BackendType to the set or when touching pgstat_tracks_io_object(),
and I have noticed while playing with this area that it is not
complicated to break it without the regression tests noticing a
difference in some cases.

Some BF animals use very high timeouts due to their slowness. Unfortunately
postmaster/003_start_stop fails if a high timeout is configured, due to
authentication_timeout having a fairly low max.
As this test is reasonably fast, the easiest fix seems to be to cap the
timeout to 600.

The test occasionally failed due to unexpected connection limit errors being
encountered after having waited for FATAL errors on another connection. These
spurious failures were caused by the the backend reporting FATAL errors to the
client before detaching from the PGPROC entry. Adding a sleep(1) before
proc_exit() makes it easy to reproduce that problem.
To fix the issue, add a helper function that waits for postmaster to notice
the process having exited. For now this is implemented by waiting for the
DEBUG2 message that postmaster logs in that case. That's not the prettiest
fix, but simple. If we notice this problem elsewhere, it might be worthwhile
to make this more general, e.g. by adding an injection point.

This commit adds a new --missing-only option that can be used in
conjunction with --analyze-only and --analyze-in-stages. When this
option is specified, vacuumdb will generate ANALYZE commands for a
relation if it is missing any statistics it should ordinarily have.
For example, if a table has statistics for one column but not
another, we will analyze the whole table. A similar principle
applies to extended statistics, expression indexes, and table
inheritance.

The authentication test added in c76db55c90 expects a backend to start
and wait at the injection point "init-pre-auth". A query is used to
retrieve the PID of the backend waiting at authentication, but its WHERE
clause was too soft, checking only for a backend in a "starting" state.
As proved by the CI, this WHERE clause is not enough. There is a small
window between the moment when the backend is reported as "starting" in
its backend entry and the moment when it waits in its injection point,
and it was possible for the test to return the PID of a backend process
not yet waiting in the injection point, causing spurious failures. This
issue is fixed by tweaking the query retrieving the PID of the backend
waiting before authentication so as we check for "init-pre-auth" in its
wait_event. An extra check based on the backend_type is added, based on
a suggestion by Jacob, to be more cautious.
Error spotted by the CI on Windows, but it could happen anywhere, as
long as the authentication path is slow enough compared to the TAP test.

This reverts commit 5ead85fbc8.
This commit shows test failures with debug_parallel_query=regress. The
underlying issue needs to be debugged, so revert for now.
An additional paramater ("strip_in_arrays") is added to these functions.
It defaults to false. If true, then null array elements are removed as
well as null valued object fields. JSON that just consists of a single
null is not affected.

Expose the count of index searches/index descents in EXPLAIN ANALYZE's
output for index scan nodes. This information is particularly useful
with scans that use ScalarArrayOp quals, where the number of index scans
isn't predictable in advance (at least not with optimizations like the
one added to nbtree by Postgres 17 commit 5bf748b8). It will also be
useful when EXPLAIN ANALYZE shows details of an nbtree index scan that
uses skip scan optimizations set to be introduced by an upcoming patch.
The instrumentation works by teaching index AMs to increment a new
nsearches counter whenever a new index search begins. The counter is
incremented at exactly the same point that index AMs must already
increment the index's pg_stat_*_indexes.idx_scan counter (we're counting
the same event, but at the scan level rather than the relation level).
The new counter is stored in the scan descriptor (IndexScanDescData),
which explain.c reaches by going through the scan node's PlanState.
This approach doesn't match the approach used when tracking other index
scan specific costs (e.g., "Rows Removed by Filter:"). It is similar to
the approach used in other cases where we must track costs that are only
readily accessible inside an access method, and not from the executor
(e.g., "Heap Blocks:" output for a Bitmap Heap Scan). It is inherently
necessary to maintain a counter that can be incremented multiple times
during a single amgettuple call (or amgetbitmap call), and directly
exposing PlanState.instrument to index access methods seems unappealing.

This allows to redefine an existing non-inheritable constraint to be
inheritable, which allows to straighten up situations with NO INHERIT
constraints so that thay can become normal constraints without having to
re-verify existing data. For existing inheritance children this may
require creating additional constraints, if they don't exist already.
It also allows to do the opposite, if only for symmetry.

The WAL receiver and WAL summarizer processes gain each one a call to
pgstat_report_wal(), to make sure that they report their WAL statistics
to pgstats, gathering data for pg_stat_io.
In the WAL receiver, the stats reports are timed with status updates sent
to the primary, that depend on wal_receiver_status_interval and
wal_receiver_timeout. This is a conservative choice, but perhaps we
could be more aggressive with the frequency of the stats reports. An
interesting historical fact is that the WAL receiver does writes and
syncs of WAL, but it has never reported its statistics to pgstats in
pg_stat_wal.
In the WAL summarizer, the stats reports are done each time the process
waits for WAL.
While on it, pg_stat_io is adjusted so as these two processes do not
report any rows when IOObject is not WAL, making the view easier to use
with less rows.
Two tests are added in TAP, checking statistics for the WAL summarizer
and the WAL receiver. Status updates in the WAL receiver are currently
possible in the recovery test 001_stream_rep.pl.

This bogus error message was introduced in 2013 by commit f177cbfe67,
because of misunderstanding the processCASbits() API; at the time, no
test cases were added that would be affected by this change. Only in
ca87c415e2 was one added (along with a couple of typos), with an XXX
note that the error message was bogus. Fix the whole, add some test
