f691e72585 Doc: clarify n_distinct_inherited setting
There was some confusion around how to adjust the n_distinct estimates
for partitioned tables.  Here we try and clarify that
n_distinct_inherited needs to be adjusted rather than n_distinct.

Also fix some slightly misleading text which was talking about table
size rather than table rows, fix a grammatical error, and adjust some
text which indicated that ANALYZE was performing calculations based on
the n_distinct settings.  Really it's the query planner that does this
and ANALYZE only stores the overridden n_distinct estimate value in
pg_statistic.

6a4009747c Fix issue with reading zero bytes in Gzip_read.
pg_dump expects a read request of zero bytes to be a no-op; see for
example ReadStr().  Gzip_read got this wrong and falsely supposed
that the resulting gzret == 0 indicated an error.  We could complicate
that error-checking logic some more, but it seems best to just fall
out immediately when passed size == 0.

This bug breaks the nominally-supported case of manually gzip'ing
the toc.dat file within a directory-style dump, so back-patch to v16
where this code came in.  (Prior branches already have a short-circuit
for size == 0 before their only gzread call.)

661b320ed4 Restore test coverage of LZ4Stream_gets().
In commit a45c78e32 I removed the only regression test case that
reaches this function, because it turns out that we only use it
if reading an LZ4-compressed blobs.toc file in a directory dump,
and that is a state that has to be created manually.  That seems
like a bad thing to not test, not so much for LZ4Stream_gets()
itself as because it means the squirrely eol_flag logic in
LZ4Stream_read_internal() is not tested.

The reason for the change was that I thought the lz4 program did not
have any way to perform compression without explicit specification
of the output file name.  However, it turns out that the syntax
synopsis in its man page is a lie, and if you read enough of the
man page you find out that with "-m" it will do what's needful.
So restore the manual compression step in that test case.

Noted while testing some proposed changes in pg_dump's compression
logic.

08c037dff9 Stop creating constraints during DETACH CONCURRENTLY
Commit 71f4c8c6f7 (which implemented DETACH CONCURRENTLY) added code
to create a separate table constraint when a table is detached
concurrently, identical to the partition constraint, on the theory that
such a constraint was needed in case the optimizer had constructed any
query plans that depended on the constraint being there.  However, that
theory was apparently bogus because any such plans would be invalidated.

For hash partitioning, those constraints are problematic, because their
expressions reference the OID of the parent partitioned table, to which
the detached table is no longer related; this causes all sorts of
problems (such as inability of restoring a pg_dump of that table, and
the table no longer working properly if the partitioned table is later
dropped).

We'd like to get rid of all those constraints.  In fact, for branch
master, do that -- no longer create any substitute constraints.
However, out of fear that some users might somehow depend on these
constraints for other partitioning strategies, for stable branches
(back to 14, which added DETACH CONCURRENTLY), only do it for hash
partitioning.

(If you repeatedly DETACH CONCURRENTLY and then ATTACH a partition, then
with this constraint addition you don't need to scan the table in the
ATTACH step, which presumably is good.  But if users really valued this
feature, they would have requested that it worked for non-concurrent
DETACH also.)

9a6ea00ac8 Remove state.tmp when failing to save a replication slot
An error happening while a slot data is saved on disk in
SaveSlotToPath() could cause a state.tmp file (temporary file holding
the slot state data, renamed to its permanent name at the end of the
function) to remain around after it has been created.  This temporary
file is created with O_EXCL, meaning that if an existing state.tmp is
found, its creation would fail.  This would prevent the slot data to be
saved, requiring a manual intervention to remove state.tmp before being
able to save again a slot.  Possible scenarios where this temporary file
could remain on disk is for example a ENOSPC case (no disk space) while
writing, syncing or renaming it.  The bug reports point to a write
failure as the principal cause of the problems.

Using O_TRUNC has been argued back in 2019 as a potential solution to
discard any temporary file that could exist.  This solution was rejected
as O_EXCL can also act as a safety measure when saving the slot state,
crash recovery offering cleanup guarantees post-crash.  This commit uses
the alternative approach that has been suggested by Andres Freund back
in 2019.  When the temporary state file cannot be written, synced,
closed or renamed (note: not when created!), an unlink() is used to
remove the temporary state file while holding the in-progress I/O
LWLock, so as any follow-up attempts to save a slot's data would not
choke on an existing file that remained around because of a previous
failure.

This problem has been reported a few times across the years, going back
to 2019, but for some reason I have never come back to do something
about it and it has been forgotten.  A recent report has reminded me
that this was still a problem.

32b95fc71b Fix access-to-already-freed-memory issue in pgoutput.
While pgoutput caches relation synchronization information in
RelationSyncCache that resides in CacheMemoryContext, each entry's
information (such as row filter expressions and column lists) is
stored in the entry's private memory context (entry_cxt in
RelationSyncEntry), which is a descendant memory context of the
decoding context. If a logical decoding invoked via SQL functions like
pg_logical_slot_get_binary_changes fails with an error, subsequent
logical decoding executions could access already-freed memory of the
entry's cache, resulting in a crash.

With this change, it's ensured that RelationSyncCache is cleaned up
even in error cases by using a memory context reset callback function.

Backpatch to 15, where entry_cxt was introduced for column filtering
and row filtering.

While the backbranches v13 and v14 have a similar issue where
RelationSyncCache persists even after an error when pgoutput is used
via SQL API, we decided not to backport this fix. This decision was
made because v13 is approaching its final minor release, and we won't
have an chance to fix any new issues that might arise. Additionally,
since using pgoutput via SQL API is not a common use case, the risk
outwights the benefit. If we receive bug reports, we can consider
backporting the fixes then.

dc9125111b Fix internal error from CollateExpr in SQL/JSON DEFAULT expressions
SQL/JSON functions such as JSON_VALUE could fail with "unrecognized
node type" errors when a DEFAULT clause contained an explicit COLLATE
expression. That happened because assign_collations_walker() could
invoke exprSetCollation() on a JsonBehavior expression whose DEFAULT
still contained a CollateExpr, which exprSetCollation() does not
handle.

For example:

  SELECT JSON_VALUE('{"a":1}', '$.c' RETURNING text
                    DEFAULT 'A' COLLATE "C" ON EMPTY);

Fix by validating in transformJsonBehavior() that the DEFAULT
expression's collation matches the enclosing JSON expression’s
collation. In exprSetCollation(), replace the recursive call on the
JsonBehavior expression with an assertion that its collation already
matches the target, since the parser now enforces that condition.

d83879a32b Use SOCK_ERRNO[_SET] in fe-secure-gssapi.c.
On Windows, this code did not handle error conditions correctly at
all, since it looked at "errno" which is not used for socket-related
errors on that platform.  This resulted, for example, in failure
to connect to a PostgreSQL server with GSSAPI enabled.

We have a convention for dealing with this within libpq, which is to
use SOCK_ERRNO and SOCK_ERRNO_SET rather than touching errno directly;
but the GSSAPI code is a relative latecomer and did not get that memo.
(The equivalent backend code continues to use errno, because the
backend does this differently.  Maybe libpq's approach should be
rethought someday.)

Apparently nobody tries to build libpq with GSSAPI support on Windows,
or we'd have heard about this before, because it's been broken all
along.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

76613b539a Fix reuse-after-free hazard in dead_items_reset
In similar vein to commit ccc8194e42, a reset instance of a shared
memory TID store happened to occupy the same private memory as the old
one for the entry point, since the chunk freed after the last round
of index vacuuming was put on the context's freelist. The failure
to update the vacrel->dead_items pointer was evident by nudging the
system to allocate memory in a different area. This was not discovered
at the time of the earlier commit since our regression tests didn't
cover multiple index passes with parallel vacuum.

c00637b5fd pgbench: Fail cleanly when finding a COPY result state
Currently, pgbench aborts when a COPY response is received in
readCommandResponse().  However, as PQgetResult() returns an empty
result when there is no asynchronous result, through getCopyResult(),
the logic done at the end of readCommandResponse() for the error path
leads to an infinite loop.

This commit forcefully exits the COPY state with PQendcopy() before
moving to the error handler when fiding a COPY state, avoiding the
infinite loop.  The COPY protocol is not supported by pgbench anyway, as
an error is assumed in this case, so giving up is better than having the
tool be stuck forever.  pgbench was interruptible in this state.

A TAP test is added to check that an error happens if trying to use
COPY.

fc295beb7b pgstattuple: Improve reports generated for indexes (hash, gist, btree)
pgstattuple checks the state of the pages retrieved for gist and hash
using some check functions from each index AM, respectively
gistcheckpage() and _hash_checkpage().  When these are called, they
would fail when bumping on data that is found as incorrect (like opaque
area size not matching, or empty pages), contrary to btree that simply
discards these cases and continues to aggregate data.

Zero pages can happen after a crash, with these AMs being able to do an
internal cleanup when these are seen.  Also, sporadic failures are
annoying when doing for example a large-scale diagnostic query based on
pgstattuple with a join of pg_class, as it forces one to use tricks like
quals to discard hash or gist indexes, or use a PL wrapper able to catch
errors.

This commit changes the reports generated for btree, gist and hash to
be more user-friendly;
- When seeing an empty page, report it as free space.  This new rule
applies to gist and hash, and already applied to btree.
- For btree, a check based on the size of BTPageOpaqueData is added.
- For gist indexes, gistcheckpage() is not called anymore, replaced by a
check based on the size of GISTPageOpaqueData.
- For hash indexes, instead of _hash_getbuf_with_strategy(), use a
direct call to ReadBufferExtended(), coupled with a check based on
HashPageOpaqueData.  The opaque area size check was already used.
- Pages that do not match these criterias are discarded from the stats
reports generated.

There have been a couple of bug reports over the years that complained
about the current behavior for hash and gist, as being not that useful,
with nothing being done about it.  Hence this change is backpatched down
to v13.

29aabbc432 pgbench: Fix error reporting in readCommandResponse().
pgbench uses readCommandResponse() to process server responses.
When readCommandResponse() encounters an error during a call to
PQgetResult() to fetch the current result, it attempts to report it
with an additional error message from PQerrorMessage(). However,
previously, this extra error message could be lost or become incorrect.

The cause was that after fetching the current result (and detecting
an error), readCommandResponse() called PQgetResult() again to
peek at the next result. This second call could overwrite the libpq
connection's error message before the original error was reported,
causing the error message retrieved from PQerrorMessage() to be
lost or overwritten.

This commit fixes the issue by updating readCommandResponse()
to use PQresultErrorMessage() instead of PQerrorMessage()
to retrieve the error message generated when the PQgetResult()
for the current result causes an error, ensuring the correct message
is reported.

Neighbor get_statistics_object_oid() ignores objects in pg_temp, as has
been the standard for non-relation, non-type namespace searches since

correctly decline to map an unqualified name to a statistics object in

pg_statistics_obj_is_visible() wrongly returned true for such objects,
psql \dX wrongly listed them, and getObjectDescription()-based ereport()

78a284b0b8 Fix missed copying of groupDistinct in transformPLAssignStmt.
Because we failed to do this, DISTINCT in GROUP BY DISTINCT would be
ignored in PL/pgSQL assignment statements.  It's not surprising that
no one noticed, since such statements will throw an error if the query
produces more than one row.  That eliminates most scenarios where
advanced forms of GROUP BY could be useful, and indeed makes it hard
even to find a simple test case.  Nonetheless it's wrong.

This is directly the fault of be45be9c3 which added the groupDistinct
field, but I think much of the blame has to fall on c9d529848, in
which I incautiously supposed that we'd manage to keep two copies of
a big chunk of parse-analysis logic in sync.  As a follow-up, I plan
to refactor so that there's only one copy.  But that seems useful
only in master, so let's use this one-line fix for the back branches.

\endpipeline meta command.

ef18eeeeae Add minimal sleep to stats isolation test functions.
The functions test_stat_func() and test_stat_func2() had empty
function bodies, so that they took very little time to run.  This made
it possible that on machines with relatively low timer resolution the
functions could return before the clock advanced, making the test fail
(as seen on buildfarm members fruitcrow and hamerkop).

To avoid that, pg_sleep for 10us during the functions.  As far as we

1ms anyway, but someday that might get improved.)

694057d236 Fix array allocation bugs in SetExplainExtensionState.
If we already have an extension_state array but see a new extension_id
much larger than the highest the extension_id we've previously seen,
the old code might have failed to expand the array to a large enough
size, leading to disaster. Also, if we don't have an extension array
at all and need to create one, we should make sure that it's big enough
that we don't have to resize it instantly.

37fc5de438 Fix LOCK_TIMEOUT handling during parallel apply.
Previously, the parallel apply worker used SIGINT to receive a graceful
shutdown signal from the leader apply worker. However, SIGINT is also used
by the LOCK_TIMEOUT handler to trigger a query-cancel interrupt. This
overlap caused the parallel apply worker to miss LOCK_TIMEOUT signals,
leading to incorrect behavior during lock wait/contention.

This patch resolves the conflict by switching the graceful shutdown signal
from SIGINT to SIGUSR2.

Initially this was to fix the "catched" typo, but I (David) wasn't quite
clear on what the previous comment meant about being "effective".  I
expect this means efficiency, so I've reworded the comment to indicate
that.

While this is only a comment fixup, for the sake of possibly minimizing
possible future backpatching pain, I've opted to backpatch to 18 since
this code is new to that version and the release isn't out the door yet.

9a82a64edc Fix EPQ crash from missing partition pruning state in EState
Commit bb3ec16e14 moved partition pruning metadata into PlannedStmt.
At executor startup this metadata is used to initialize the EState
fields es_part_prune_infos, es_part_prune_states, and
es_part_prune_results.  EvalPlanQualStart() failed to copy those
fields into the child EState, causing NULL dereference when Append
ran partition pruning during a recheck. This can occur with DELETE
or UPDATE on partitioned tables that use runtime pruning, e.g. with
generic plans.

Fix by copying all partition pruning state into the EPQ estate.

Add an isolation test that reproduces the crash with concurrent
UPDATE and DELETE on a partitioned table, where the DELETE session
hits the crash during its EPQ recheck after the UPDATE commits.

7aecc00b3d pg_restore: Fix security label handling with --no-publications/subscriptions.
Previously, pg_restore did not skip security labels on publications or
subscriptions even when --no-publications or --no-subscriptions was specified.
As a result, it could issue SECURITY LABEL commands for objects that were
never created, causing those commands to fail.

This commit fixes the issue by ensuring that security labels on publications
and subscriptions are also skipped when the corresponding options are used.

4eab456494 Calculate agglevelsup correctly when Aggref contains a CTE.
If an aggregate function call contains a sub-select that has
an RTE referencing a CTE outside the aggregate, we must treat
that reference like a Var referencing the CTE's query level
for purposes of determining the aggregate's level.  Otherwise
we might reach the nonsensical conclusion that the aggregate
should be evaluated at some query level higher than the CTE,
ending in a planner error or a broken plan tree that causes
executor failures.

6e8286f9a1 injection_points: Fix incrementation of variable-numbered stats
The pending entry was not used when incrementing its data, directly
manipulating the shared memory pointer, without even locking it.  This
could mean losing statistics under concurrent activity.  The flush
callback was a no-op.

This code serves as a base template for extensions for the custom
cumulative statistics, so let's be clean and use a pending entry for the
incrementations, whose data is then flushed to the corresponding entry
in the shared hashtable when all the stats are reported, in its own
flush callback.

The shared memory size was calculated based on an offset of io_handles,
which is itself a pointer included in the structure.  We tend to
overestimate the shared memory size overall, so this was unlikely an
issue in practice, but let's be correct and use the full size of the
structure in the calculation, so as the pointer for io_handles is
included.

78e6047dce Add missing EPQ recheck for TID Range Scan
The EvalPlanQual recheck for TID Range Scan wasn't rechecking the TID qual
still passed after following update chains.  This could result in tuples
being updated or deleted by plans using TID Range Scans where the ctid of
the new (updated) tuple no longer matches the clause of the scan.  This
isn't desired behavior, and isn't consistent with what would happen if the
chosen plan had used an Index or Seq Scan, and that could lead to hard to
predict behavior for scans that contain TID quals and other quals as the
planner has freedom to choose TID Range or some other non-TID scan method
for such queries, and the chosen plan could change at any moment.

Here we fix this by properly implementing the recheck function for TID
Range Scans.

Backpatch to 14, where TID Range Scans were added
