On further reflection, commit e5d83995e didn't go far enough: pretty much
everywhere in the planner that examines a clause's is_pushed_down flag
ought to be changed to use the more complicated behavior where we also
check the clause's required_relids. Otherwise we could make incorrect
decisions about whether, say, a clause is safe to use as a hash clause.
Some (many?) of these places are safe as-is, either because they are
never reached while considering a parameterized path, or because there
are additional checks that would reject a pushed-down clause anyway.
However, it seems smarter to just code them all the same way rather
than rely on easily-broken reasoning of that sort.
In support of that, invent a new macro RINFO_IS_PUSHED_DOWN that should
be used in place of direct tests on the is_pushed_down flag.
Like the previous patch, back-patch to all supported branches.

In commits e5d83995e et al, I changed the signature of
extract_actual_join_clauses, thinking that it was not called from
anywhere but createplan.c. I missed that postgres_fdw uses it
in the 9.6 branch only.
This opens up the question of whether any third-party modules might
be calling it, and whether we need to take steps to avoid an API break
for them. But for the moment, just get the buildfarm green again.

In some cases a clause attached to an outer join can be pushed down into
the outer join's RHS even though the clause is not degenerate --- this
can happen if we choose to make a parameterized path for the RHS. If
the clause ends up attached to a lower outer join, we'd misclassify it
as being a "join filter" not a plain "filter" condition at that node,
leading to wrong query results.
To fix, teach extract_actual_join_clauses to examine each join clause's
required_relids, not just its is_pushed_down flag. (The latter now
seems vestigial, or at least in need of rethinking, but we won't do
anything so invasive as redefining it in a bug-fix patch.)
This has been wrong since we introduced parameterized paths in 9.2,
though it's evidently hard to hit given the lack of previous reports.
The test case used here involves a lateral function call, and I think
that a lateral reference may be required to get the planner to select
a broken plan; though I wouldn't swear to that. In any case, even if
LATERAL is needed to trigger the bug, it still affects all supported
branches, so back-patch to all.
Per report from Andreas Karlsson. Thanks to Andrew Gierth for
preliminary investigation.

Commit 54eff5311 did not account for the possibility that we'd have
a transaction snapshot due to default_transaction_isolation being
set high enough to require one. The transaction snapshot is enough
to hold back our advertised xmin and thus risk deadlock anyway.
The only way to get rid of that snap is to start a new transaction,
so let's do that instead. Also throw in an assert checking that we
really have gotten to a state where no xmin is being advertised.
Back-patch to 9.4, like the previous commit.

spg_text_leaf_consistent() supposed that it should compare only
Min(querylen, entrylen) bytes of the two strings, and then deal with
any excess bytes in one string or the other by assuming the longer
string is greater if the prefixes are equal. Quite aside from the
fact that that's just wrong in some locales (e.g., 'ch' is not less
than 'd' in cs_CZ), it also risked passing incomplete multibyte
characters to strcoll(), with ensuing bad results.
Instead, just pass the full strings to varstr_cmp, and let it decide
what to do about unequal-length strings.
Fortunately, this error doesn't imply any index corruption, it's just
that searches might return the wrong set of entries.

Spelling access(2)'s second argument as "2" is just horrid.
POSIX makes no promises as to the numeric values of W_OK and related
macros. Even if it accidentally works as intended on every supported
platform, it's still unreadable and inconsistent with adjacent code.
In passing, don't spell "NULL" as "0" either. Yes, that's legal C;
no, it's not project style.
Back-patch, just in case the unportability is real and not theoretical.
(Most likely, even if a platform had different bit assignments for
access()'s modes, there'd not be an observable behavior difference
here; but I'm being paranoid today.)

We'd throw away the partial result anyway after parsing the error message.
Throwing it away beforehand costs nothing and reduces the risk of
out-of-memory failure. Also, at least in systems that behave like
glibc/Linux, if the partial result was very large then the error PGresult
would get allocated at high heap addresses, preventing the heap storage
used by the partial result from being released to the OS until the error
PGresult is freed.
In psql >= 9.6, we hold onto the error PGresult until another error is
received (for \errverbose), so that this behavior causes a seeming
memory leak to persist for awhile, as in a recent complaint from
Darafei Praliaskouski. This is a potential performance regression from
older versions, justifying back-patching at least that far. But similar
behavior may occur in other client applications, so it seems worth just
back-patching to all supported branches.

The nextOid value is from the start of the checkpoint and may well be stale
compared to values from more recent XLOG_NEXTOID records. Previously, we
adopted it anyway, allowing the OID counter to go backwards during a crash.
While this should be harmless, it contributed to the severity of the bug
fixed in commit 0408e1ed5, by allowing duplicate TOAST OIDs to be assigned
immediately following a crash. Without this error, that issue would only
have arisen when TOAST objects just younger than a multiple of 2^32 OIDs
were deleted and then not vacuumed in time to avoid a conflict.

When selecting a new OID, we take care to avoid picking one that's already
in use in the target table, so as not to create duplicates after the OID
counter has wrapped around. However, up to now we used SnapshotDirty when
scanning for pre-existing entries. That ignores committed-dead rows, so
that we could select an OID matching a deleted-but-not-yet-vacuumed row.
While that mostly worked, it has two problems:
* If recently deleted, the dead row might still be visible to MVCC
snapshots, creating a risk for duplicate OIDs when examining the catalogs
within our own transaction. Such duplication couldn't be visible outside
the object-creating transaction, though, and we've heard few if any field
reports corresponding to such a symptom.
* When selecting a TOAST OID, deleted toast rows definitely *are* visible
to SnapshotToast, and will remain so until vacuumed away. This leads to
a conflict that will manifest in errors like "unexpected chunk number 0
(expected 1) for toast value nnnnn". We've been seeing reports of such
errors from the field for years, but the cause was unclear before.
The fix is simple: just use SnapshotAny to search for conflicting rows.
This results in a slightly longer window before object OIDs can be
recycled, but that seems unlikely to create any large problems.

The atomics code asserts proper alignment in various places. That's
mainly because the alignment of 64bit integers is not sufficient for
atomic operations on all platforms. Some ABIs only have four byte
alignment, but don't have atomic behavior when crossing page
boundaries.
The flags code isn't affected by that however, as the type alignment
always is sufficient for atomic operations. Nevertheless the code
asserted alignment requirements. Before 8c3debbb it was only broken on
hppa, after it probably affect further platforms.
Thus remove the assertions for pg_atomic_flag operators.

The atomics fallback implementation for pg_atomic_flag was broken,
returning the inverted value from pg_atomic_test_set_flag(). This was
unnoticed because a) atomic flags were unused until recently b) the
test code wasn't run when the fallback implementation was in
use (because it didn't allow to test for some edge cases).
Fix the bug, and improve the fallback so it has the same behaviour as
the non-fallback implementation in the problematic edge cases. That
breaks ABI compatibility in the back branches when fallbacks are in
use, but given they were broken until now...

Avoid storing the result of PQsocket() in a pgsocket variable; it's
declared as int, and the no-socket test is properly written as "x < 0"
not "x == PGINVALID_SOCKET". This accidentally had no bad effect
because we never got to init_slot() with a bad connection, but it's
still wrong.
Actually, it seems like we should avoid storing the result for a long
period at all. The function's not so expensive that it's worth avoiding,
and the existing coding technique here would fail if anyone tried to
PQreset the connection during the life of the program. Hence, just
re-call PQsocket every time we construct a select(2) mask.
Speaking of select(), GetIdleSlot imagined that it could compute the
select mask once and continue to use it over multiple calls to
select_loop(), which is pretty bogus since that would stomp on the
mask on return. This could only matter if the function's outer loop
iterated more than once, which is unlikely (it'd take some connection
receiving data, but not enough to complete its command). But if it
did happen, we'd acquire "tunnel vision" and stop watching the other
connections for query termination, with the effect of losing parallelism.
Another way in which GetIdleSlot could lose parallelism is that once
PQisBusy returns false, it would lock in on that connection and do
PQgetResult until that returns NULL; in some cases that could result
in blocking. (Perhaps this can never happen in vacuumdb due to the
limited set of commands that it can issue, but I'm not quite sure
of that, and even if true today it's not a future-proof assumption.)
Refactor the code to do that properly, so that it risks blocking in
PQgetResult only in cases where we need to wait anyway.
Another loss-of-parallelism problem, which *is* easily demonstrable,
is that any setup queries issued during prepare_vacuum_command() were
always issued on the last-to-be-created connection, whether or not
that was idle. Long-running operations on that connection thus
prevented issuance of additional operations on the other ones, except
in the limited cases where no preparatory query was needed. Instead,
wait till we've identified a free connection and use that one.
Also, avoid core dump due to undersized malloc request in the case
that no tables are identified to be vacuumed.
The bogus no-socket test was noted by CharSyam, the other problems
identified in my own code review. Back-patch to 9.5 where parallel
vacuumdb was introduced.

Richard Yen reported that pg_upgrade failed if the target cluster had
force_parallel_mode = on, because binary_upgrade_create_empty_extension()
is marked parallel restricted, allowing it to be executed in parallel
mode, which complains because it tries to acquire an XID.
In general, no function that might try to modify database data should
be considered parallel safe or restricted, since execution of it might
force XID acquisition. We found several other examples of this mistake.
Furthermore, functions that execute user-supplied SQL queries or query
fragments, or pull data from user-supplied cursors, had better be marked
both volatile and parallel unsafe, because we don't know what the supplied
query or cursor might try to do. There were several tsquery and XML
functions that had the wrong proparallel marking for this, and some of
them were even mislabeled as to volatility.
All these bugs are old, dating back to 9.6 for the proparallel mistakes
and much further for the provolatile mistakes. We can't force a
catversion bump in the back branches, but we can at least ensure that
installations initdb'd in future have the right values.

After processing the filemap to build the list of chunks that will be
fetched from the source to rewing the target server, it is possible that
a file which was previously processed is removed from the source. A
simple example of such an occurence is a WAL segment which gets recycled
on the target in-between. When the filemap is processed, files not
categorized as relation files are first truncated to prepare for its
full copy of which is going to be taken from the source, divided into a
set of junks. However, for a recycled WAL segment, this would result in
a segment which has a zero-byte size. With such an empty file,
post-rewind recovery thinks that records are saved but they are actually
not because of the truncation which happened when processing the
filemap, resulting in data loss.
In order to fix the problem, make sure that files which are found as
removed on the source when receiving chunks of them are as well deleted
on the target server for consistency.

tuplesort_gettupleslot() passed back tuples allocated in the tuplesort's
own memory context, even when the caller was responsible to free them.
This created a double-free hazard, because some callers might destroy
the tuplesort object (via tuplesort_end) before trying to clean up the
last returned tuple. To avoid this, change the API to specify that the
tuple is allocated in the caller's memory context. v10 and HEAD already
did things that way, but in 9.5 and 9.6 this is a live bug that can
demonstrably cause crashes with some grouping-set usages.
In 9.5 and 9.6, this requires doing an extra tuple copy in some cases,
which is unfortunate. But the amount of refactoring needed to avoid it
seems excessive for a back-patched change, especially since the cases
where an extra copy happens are less performance-critical.
Likewise change tuplesort_getdatum() to return pass-by-reference Datums
in the caller's context not the tuplesort's context. There seem to be
no live bugs among its callers, but clearly the same sort of situation
could happen in future.
For other tuplesort fetch routines, continue to allocate the memory in
the tuplesort's context. This is a little inconsistent with what we now
do for tuplesort_gettupleslot() and tuplesort_getdatum(), but that's
preferable to adding new copy overhead in the back branches where it's
clearly unnecessary. These other fetch routines provide the weakest
possible guarantees about tuple memory lifespan from v10 on, anyway,
so this actually seems more consistent overall.
Adjust relevant comments to reflect these API redefinitions.
Arguably, we should change the pre-9.5 branches as well, but since
there are no known failure cases there, it seems not worth the risk.

For years, our makefiles have correctly observed that "there is no correct
way to write a rule that generates two files". However, what we did is to
provide empty rules that "generate" the secondary output files from the
primary one, and that's not right either. Depending on the details of
the creating process, the primary file might end up timestamped later than
one or more secondary files, causing subsequent make runs to consider the
secondary file(s) out of date. That's harmless in a plain build, since
make will just re-execute the empty rule and nothing happens. But it's
fatal in a VPATH build, since make will expect the secondary file to be
rebuilt in the build directory. This would manifest as "file not found"
failures during VPATH builds from tarballs, if we were ever unlucky enough
to ship a tarball with apparently out-of-date secondary files. (It's not
clear whether that has ever actually happened, but it definitely could.)
To ensure that secondary output files have timestamps >= their primary's,
change our makefile convention to be that we provide a "touch $@" action
not an empty rule. Also, make sure that this rule actually gets invoked
during a distprep run, else the hazard remains.
It's been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.
In HEAD, I skipped the changes in src/backend/catalog/Makefile, because
those rules are due to get replaced soon in the bootstrap data format

If for some reason we fail to land that patch in v11, we'll need to
back-fill the changes in that one makefile from v10.

Code that prints out the contents of setconfig or proconfig arrays in
SQL format needs to handle GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables differently from
other ones, because for those variables, flatten_set_variable_args()
already applied a layer of quoting. The value can therefore safely
be printed as-is, and indeed must be, or flatten_set_variable_args()
will muck it up completely on reload. For all other GUC variables,
it's necessary and sufficient to quote the value as a SQL literal.
We'd recognized the need for this long ago, but mis-analyzed the
need slightly, thinking that all GUC_LIST_INPUT variables needed
the special treatment. That's actually wrong, since a valid value
of a LIST variable might include characters that need quoting,
although no existing variables accept such values.
More to the point, we hadn't made any particular effort to keep the
various places that deal with this up-to-date with the set of variables
that actually need special treatment, meaning that we'd do the wrong
thing with, for example, temp_tablespaces values. This affects dumping
of SET clauses attached to functions, as well as ALTER DATABASE/ROLE SET
commands.
In ruleutils.c we can fix it reasonably honestly by exporting a guc.c
function that allows discovering the flags for a given GUC variable.
But pg_dump doesn't have easy access to that, so continue the old method
of having a hard-wired list of affected variable names. At least we can
fix it to have just one list not two, and update the list to match
current reality.
A remaining problem with this is that it only works for built-in
GUC variables. pg_dump's list obvious knows nothing of third-party
extensions, and even the "ask guc.c" method isn't bulletproof since
the relevant extension might not be loaded. There's no obvious
solution to that, so for now, we'll just have to discourage extension
authors from inventing custom GUCs that need GUC_LIST_QUOTE.
This has been busted for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

The original coding of the SP-GiST scan traversalValue feature (commit

but if there are many, we have a memory leak as successive scans create
new traversal values. Fix it by creating a separate memory context for
traversal values, which we can reset during spgrescan(). Back-patch
to 9.6 where this code was introduced.
In principle, adding the traversalCxt field to SpGistScanOpaqueData
creates an ABI break in the back branches. But I (tgl) have little
sympathy for extensions including spgist_private.h, so I'm not very
worried about that. Alternatively we could stick the new field at the
end of the struct in back branches, but that has its own downsides.

refresh_by_match_merge() has some issues in the way it builds a SQL
query to construct the "diff" table:
1. It doesn't require the selected unique index(es) to be indimmediate.
2. It doesn't pay attention to the particular equality semantics enforced
by a given index, but just assumes that they must be those of the column
datatype's default btree opclass.
3. It doesn't check that the indexes are btrees.
4. It's insufficiently careful to ensure that the parser will pick the
intended operator when parsing the query. (This would have been a
security bug before CVE-2018-1058.)
5. It's not careful about indexes on system columns.
The way to fix #4 is to make use of the existing code in ri_triggers.c
for generating an arbitrary binary operator clause. I chose to move
that to ruleutils.c, since that seems a more reasonable place to be
exporting such functionality from than ri_triggers.c.
While #1, #3, and #5 are just latent given existing feature restrictions,
and #2 doesn't arise in the core system for lack of alternate opclasses
with different equality behaviors, #4 seems like an issue worth
back-patching. That's the bulk of the change anyway, so just back-patch
the whole thing to 9.4 where this code was introduced.

Jeff Janes discovered that commit 7ca25b7de made one of the queries run by
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY perform badly. The root cause is
bad cardinality estimation for correlated quals, but a principled solution
to that problem is some way off, especially since the planner lacks any
statistics about whole-row variables. Moreover, in non-error cases this
query produces no rows, meaning it must be run to completion; but use of
LIMIT 1 encourages the planner to pick a fast-start, slow-completion plan,
exactly not what we want. Remove the LIMIT clause, and instead rely on
the count parameter we pass to SPI_execute() to prevent excess work if the
query does return some rows.
While we've heard no field reports of planner misbehavior with this query,
it could be that people are having performance issues that haven't reached
the level of pain needed to cause a bug report. In any case, that LIMIT
clause can't possibly do anything helpful with any existing version of the
planner, and it demonstrably can cause bad choices in some cases, so
back-patch to 9.4 where the code was introduced.

If a view lacks an INSTEAD OF trigger, DML on it can only work by rewriting
the command into a command on the underlying base table(s). Then we will
fire triggers attached to those table(s), not those for the view. This
seems appropriate from a consistency standpoint, but nowhere was the
behavior explicitly documented, so let's do that.
There was some discussion of throwing an error or warning if a statement
trigger is created on a view without creating a row INSTEAD OF trigger.
But a simple implementation of that would result in dump/restore ordering
hazards. Given that it's been like this all along, and we hadn't heard
a complaint till now, a documentation improvement seems sufficient.
Per bug #15106 from Pu Qun. Back-patch to all supported branches.

In e170b8c8, protection against modified search_path was added. However,
PostgreSQL versions prior to 10 does not accept SQL commands over a
replication connection, so the protection would generate a syntax error.
Since we cannot run SQL commands on it, we are also not vulnerable to
the issue that e170b8c8 fixes, so we can just skip this command for
older versions.

The test to exit the loop if the integer control value would overflow
an int32 turns out not to work on some ICC versions, as it's dependent
on the assumption that the compiler will execute the code as written
rather than "optimize" it. ICC lacks any equivalent of gcc's -fwrapv
switch, so it was optimizing on the assumption of no integer overflow,
and that breaks this. Rewrite into a form that in fact does not
do any overflowing computations.
Per Tomas Vondra and buildfarm member fulmar. It's been like this
for a long time, although it was not till we added a regression test
case covering the behavior (in commit dd2243f2a) that the problem
became apparent. Back-patch to all supported versions.

"UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name" failed, with an error message
like "cannot extract system attribute from virtual tuple", if the cursor
was using a index-only scan for the target table. Fix it by digging the
current TID out of the indexscan state.
It seems likely that the same failure could occur for CustomScan plans
and perhaps some FDW plan types, so that leaving this to be treated as an
internal error with an obscure message isn't as good an idea as it first
seemed. Hence, add a bit of heaptuple.c infrastructure to let us deliver
a more on-topic message. I chose to make the message match what you get
for the case where execCurrentOf can't identify the target scan node at
all, "cursor "foo" is not a simply updatable scan of table "bar"".
Perhaps it should be different, but we can always adjust that later.
In the future, it might be nice to provide hooks that would let custom
scan providers and/or FDWs deal with this in other ways; but that's
not a suitable topic for a back-patchable bug fix.
It's been like this all along, so back-patch to all supported branches.

ExecHashTableCreate allocated some memory that wasn't freed by
ExecHashTableDestroy, specifically the per-hash-key function information.
That's not a huge amount of data, but if one runs a query that repeats
a hash join enough times, it builds up. Fix by arranging for the data
in question to be kept in the hashtable's hashCxt instead of leaving it
"loose" in the query-lifespan executor context. (This ensures that we'll
also clean up anything that the hash functions allocate in fn_mcxt.)
Per report from Amit Khandekar. It's been like this forever, so back-patch
to all supported branches.

This was not stated in so many words anywhere. Document it to make
clear that it's a design limitation and not just an oversight or
documentation omission.

Should have done this in e69f5e0efca ...
Per note from Tom Lane.

Doing so causes a pg_upgrade of a database containing these objects to
fail whenever pg_class changes. And it's pointless anyway: we have more
interesting tables anyhow.
