The 'lsn' and 'wait_for_catchup' methods only exist in v10 and
higher, but are needed in order to support a test planned test
case for a bug that exists all the way back to v9.6. To minimize
cross-branch differences in the test case, back-port these
methods.

An incorrectly-encoded multibyte character near the end of a string
could cause various processing loops to run past the string's
terminating NUL, with results ranging from no detectable issue to
a program crash, depending on what happens to be in the following
memory.
This isn't an issue in the server, because we take care to verify
the encoding of strings before doing any interesting processing
on them. However, that lack of care leaked into client-side code
which shouldn't assume that anyone has validated the encoding of
its input.
Although this is certainly a bug worth fixing, the PG security team
elected not to regard it as a security issue, primarily because
any untrusted text should be sanitized by PQescapeLiteral or
the like before being incorporated into a SQL or psql command.
(If an app fails to do so, the same technique can be used to
cause SQL injection, with probably much more dire consequences
than a mere client-program crash.) Those functions were already
made proof against this class of problem, cf CVE-2006-2313.
To fix, invent PQmblenBounded() which is like PQmblen() except it
won't return more than the number of bytes remaining in the string.
In HEAD we can make this a new libpq function, as PQmblen() is.
It seems imprudent to change libpq's API in stable branches though,
so in the back branches define PQmblenBounded as a macro in the files
that need it. (Note that just changing PQmblen's behavior would not
be a good idea; notably, it would completely break the escaping
functions' defense against this exact problem. So we just want a
version for those callers that don't have any better way of handling
this issue.)

The Msys shell mangles certain patterns in its command line, so avoid
handing arbitrary SQL to psql on the command line and instead use
IPC::Run's redirection facility for stdin. This pattern is already
mostly whats used, but query_poll_until() was not doing the right thing.

The internal SQL queries used by REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY
include some aliases for its diff and temporary relations with
rather-generic names: diff, newdata, newdata2 and mv. Depending on the
queries used for the materialized view, using CONCURRENTLY could lead to
some internal failures if the query and those internal aliases conflict.
Those names have been chosen in 841c29c8. This commit switches instead
to a naming pattern which is less likely going to cause conflicts, based
on an idea from Thomas Munro, by appending _$ to those aliases. This is
not perfect as those new names could still conflict, but at least it has
the advantage to keep the code readable and simple while reducing the
likelihood of conflicts to be close to zero.

Various environment variables were not getting reset in the TAP tests,
which would cause failures depending on the tests or the environment
variables involved. For example, PGSSL{MAX,MIN}PROTOCOLVERSION could
cause failures in the SSL tests. Even worse, a junk value of
PGCLIENTENCODING makes a server startup fail. The list of variables
reset is adjusted in each stable branch depending on what is supported.
While on it, simplify a bit the code per a suggestion from Andrew
Dunstan, using a list of variables instead of doing single deletions.

This case should be disallowed, just as FOR UPDATE with a plain
GROUP BY is disallowed; FOR UPDATE only makes sense when each row
of the query result can be identified with a single table row.
However, we missed teaching CheckSelectLocking() to check
groupingSets as well as groupClause, so that it would allow
degenerate grouping sets. That resulted in a bad plan and
a null-pointer dereference in the executor.
Looking around for other instances of the same bug, the only one
I found was in examine_simple_variable(). That'd just lead to
silly estimates, but it should be fixed too.

The deliverables of upstream Kerberos on Windows are installed with

Second, the build would fail with 64-bit environments as the libraries
are named differently.
This commit adjusts the MSVC scripts to be compatible with the latest

SSL renegotiation is already disabled as of 48d23c72, however this does
not prevent the server to comply with a client willing to use
renegotiation. In the last couple of years, renegotiation had its set
of security issues and flaws (like the recent CVE-2021-3449), and it
could be possible to crash the backend with a client attempting
renegotiation.
This commit takes one extra step by disabling renegotiation in the
backend in the same way as SSL compression (f9264d15) or tickets
(97d3a0b0). OpenSSL 1.1.0h has added an option named
SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION able to achieve that. In older versions
there is an option called SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS that
was undocumented, and could be set within the SSL object created when
the TLS connection opens, but I have decided not to use it, as it feels
trickier to rely on, and it is not official. Note that this option is
not usable in OpenSSL < 1.1.0h as the internal contents of the *SSL
object are hidden to applications.
SSL renegotiation concerns protocols up to TLSv1.2.

ForgetBackgroundWorker lacked any memory barrier at all, while
BackgroundWorkerStateChange had one but unaccountably did
additional manipulation of the slot after the barrier. AFAICS,
the rule must be that the barrier is immediately before setting
or clearing slot->in_use.
It looks like back in 9.6 when ForgetBackgroundWorker was first
written, there might have been some case for not needing a
barrier there, but I'm not very convinced of that --- the fact
that the load of bgw_notify_pid is in the caller doesn't seem
to guarantee no memory ordering problem. So patch 9.6 too.
It's likely that this doesn't fix any observable bug on Intel
hardware, but machines with weaker memory ordering rules could
have problems here.

Formerly we just relied on operator classes that assert longValuesOK
to eventually shorten the leaf value enough to fit on an index page.
That fails since the introduction of INCLUDE-column support (commit
09c1c6ab4), because the INCLUDE columns might alone take up more
than a page, meaning no amount of leaf-datum compaction will get
the job done. At least with spgtextproc.c, that leads to an infinite
loop, since spgtextproc.c won't throw an error for not being able
to shorten the leaf datum anymore.
To fix without breaking cases that would otherwise work, add logic
to spgdoinsert() to verify that the leaf tuple size is decreasing
after each "choose" step. Some opclasses might not decrease the
size on every single cycle, and in any case, alignment roundoff
of the tuple size could obscure small gains. Therefore, allow
up to 10 cycles without additional savings before throwing an
error. (Perhaps this number will need adjustment, but it seems
quite generous right now.)
As long as we've developed this logic, let's back-patch it.
The back branches don't have INCLUDE columns to worry about, but
this seems like a good defense against possible bugs in operator
classes. We already know that an infinite loop here is pretty
unpleasant, so having a defense seems to outweigh the risk of
breaking things. (Note that spgtextproc.c is actually the only
known opclass with longValuesOK support, so that this is all moot
for known non-core opclasses anyway.)

Knowing that a buggy opclass could cause an infinite insertion loop,
spgdoinsert() intended to allow its loop to be interrupted by query
cancel. However, that never actually worked, because in iterations
after the first, we'd be holding buffer lock(s) which would cause
InterruptHoldoffCount to be positive, preventing servicing of the
interrupt.
To fix, check if an interrupt is pending, and if so fall out of
the insertion loop and service the interrupt after we've released
the buffers. If it was indeed a query cancel, that's the end of
the matter. If it was a non-canceling interrupt reason, make use
of the existing provision to retry the whole insertion. (This isn't
as wasteful as it might seem, since any upper-level index tuples we
already created should be usable in the next attempt.)
While there's no known instance of such a bug in existing release
branches, it still seems like a good idea to back-patch this to
all supported branches, since the behavior is fairly nasty if a
loop does happen --- not only is it uncancelable, but it will
quickly consume memory to the point of an OOM failure. In any
case, this code is certainly not working as intended.

Split up CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() to provide an additional macro
INTERRUPTS_PENDING_CONDITION(), which just tests whether an
interrupt is pending without attempting to service it. This is
useful in situations where the caller knows that interrupts are
blocked, and would like to find out if it's worth the trouble
to unblock them.
Also add INTERRUPTS_CAN_BE_PROCESSED(), which indicates whether
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() can be relied on to clear the pending interrupt.
This commit doesn't actually add any uses of the new macros,
but a follow-on bug fix will do so. Back-patch to all supported
branches to provide infrastructure for that fix.

It's unusual to have any resjunk columns in an ON CONFLICT ... UPDATE
list, but it can happen when MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK SubPlans are present.
If it happens, the ON CONFLICT UPDATE code path would end up storing
tuples that include the values of the extra resjunk columns. That's
fairly harmless in the short run, but if new columns are added to
the table then the values would become accessible, possibly leading
to malfunctions if they don't match the datatypes of the new columns.
This had escaped notice through a confluence of missing sanity checks,
including
* There's no cross-check that a tuple presented to heap_insert or
heap_update matches the table rowtype. While it's difficult to
check that fully at reasonable cost, we can easily add assertions
that there aren't too many columns.
* The output-column-assignment cases in execExprInterp.c lacked
any sanity checks on the output column numbers, which seems like
an oversight considering there are plenty of assertion checks on
input column numbers. Add assertions there too.
* We failed to apply nodeModifyTable's ExecCheckPlanOutput() to
the ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlist. That wouldn't have caught this
specific error, since that function is chartered to ignore resjunk
columns; but it sure seems like a bad omission now that we've seen
this bug.
In HEAD, the right way to fix this is to make the processing of
ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlists work the same as regular UPDATE tlists
now do, that is don't add "SET x = x" entries, and use
ExecBuildUpdateProjection to evaluate the tlist and combine it with
old values of the not-set columns. This adds a little complication
to ExecBuildUpdateProjection, but allows removal of a comparable
amount of now-dead code from the planner.
In the back branches, the most expedient solution seems to be to
(a) use an output slot for the ON CONFLICT UPDATE projection that
actually matches the target table, and then (b) invent a variant of
ExecBuildProjectionInfo that can be told to not store values resulting
from resjunk columns, so it doesn't try to store into nonexistent
columns of the output slot. (We can't simply ignore the resjunk columns
altogether; they have to be evaluated for MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK to work.)
This works back to v10. In 9.6, projections work much differently and
we can't cheaply give them such an option. The 9.6 version of this
patch works by inserting a JunkFilter when it's necessary to get rid
of resjunk columns.
In addition, v11 and up have the reverse problem when trying to
perform ON CONFLICT UPDATE on a partitioned table. Through a
further oversight, adjust_partition_tlist() discarded resjunk columns
when re-ordering the ON CONFLICT UPDATE tlist to match a partition.
This accidentally prevented the storing-bogus-tuples problem, but
at the cost that MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK cases didn't work, typically
crashing if more than one row has to be updated. Fix by preserving
resjunk columns in that routine. (I failed to resist the temptation
to add more assertions there too, and to do some minor code
beautification.)
Per report from Andres Freund. Back-patch to all supported branches.

While we were (mostly) careful about ensuring that the dimensions of
arrays aren't large enough to cause integer overflow, the lower bound
values were generally not checked. This allows situations where
lower_bound + dimension overflows an integer. It seems that that's
harmless so far as array reading is concerned, except that array
elements with subscripts notionally exceeding INT_MAX are inaccessible.
However, it confuses various array-assignment logic, resulting in a
potential for memory stomps.
Fix by adding checks that array lower bounds aren't large enough to
cause lower_bound + dimension to overflow. (Note: this results in
disallowing cases where the last subscript position would be exactly
INT_MAX. In principle we could probably allow that, but there's a lot
of code that computes lower_bound + dimension and would need adjustment.
It seems doubtful that it's worth the trouble/risk to allow it.)
Somewhat independently of that, array_set_element() was careless
about possible overflow when checking the subscript of a fixed-length
array, creating a different route to memory stomps. Fix that too.

Reject aggregates, window functions, and procedures. Aggregates

Window functions would hit an Assert or null-pointer dereference.
Procedures seemed to work as long as you didn't try to do
transaction control, but (a) transaction control is sort of the
point of a procedure, and (b) it's not entirely clear that no
bugs lurk in that path. Given the lack of testing of this area,
it seems safest to be conservative in what we support.

Commits 29aeda6e4 et al closed up some oversights involving not checking
for non-upgradable types within container types, such as arrays and
ranges. However, I only looked at version.c, failing to notice that
there were substantially-equivalent tests in check.c. (The division
of responsibility between those files is less than clear...)
In addition, because genbki.pl does not guarantee that auto-generated
rowtype OIDs will hold still across versions, we need to consider that
the composite type associated with a system catalog or view is
non-upgradable. It seems unlikely that someone would have a user
column declared that way, but if they did, trying to read it in another
PG version would likely draw "no such pg_type OID" failures, thanks
to the type OID embedded in composite Datums.
To support the composite and reg*-type cases, extend the recursive
query that does the search to allow any base query that returns
a column of pg_type OIDs, rather than limiting it to exactly one
starting type.

In order to avoid getting old logfile contents certain functions in
PostgresNode were doing one of two things. On Windows it rotated the
logfile and restarted the server, while elsewhere it truncated the log
file. Both of these are unnecessary. We borrow from the buildfarm which
does this instead: note the size of the logfile before we start, and
then when fetching the logfile skip to that position before accumulating
contents. This is spelled differently on Windows but the effect is the
same. This is largely centralized in TestLib's slurp_file function,
which has a new optional parameter, the offset to skip to before
starting to reading the file. Code in the client becomes much neater.

Most GUC check hooks that inspect database state have special checks
that prevent them from throwing hard errors for state-dependent issues
when source == PGC_S_TEST. This allows, for example,
"ALTER DATABASE d SET default_text_search_config = foo" when the "foo"
configuration hasn't been created yet. Without this, we have problems
during dump/reload or pg_upgrade, because pg_dump has no idea about
possible dependencies of GUC values and can't ensure a safe restore
ordering.
However, check_role() and check_session_authorization() hadn't gotten
the memo about that, and would throw hard errors anyway. It's not
entirely clear what is the use-case for "ALTER ROLE x SET role = y",
but we've now heard two independent complaints about that bollixing
an upgrade, so apparently some people are doing it.
Hence, fix these two functions to act more like other check hooks
with similar needs. (But I did not change their insistence on
being inside a transaction, as it's still not apparent that setting
either GUC from the configuration file would be wise.)
Also fix check_temp_buffers, which had a different form of the disease
of making state-dependent checks without any exception for PGC_S_TEST.
A cursory survey of other GUC check hooks did not find any more issues
of this ilk. (There are a lot of interdependencies among
PGC_POSTMASTER and PGC_SIGHUP GUCs, which may be a bad idea, but
they're not relevant to the immediate concern because they can't be
set via ALTER ROLE/DATABASE.)

There are hacks in parse_coerce.c to push down a requested coercion
to below any CollateExpr that may appear. However, we did that even
if the requested data type is non-collatable, leading to an invalid
expression tree in which CollateExpr is applied to a non-collatable
type. The fix is just to drop the CollateExpr altogether, reasoning
that it's useless.
This bug is ten years old, dating to the original addition of
COLLATE support. The lack of field complaints suggests that there
aren't a lot of user-visible consequences. We noticed the problem
because it would trigger an assertion in DefineVirtualRelation if
the invalid structure appears as an output column of a view; however,
in a non-assert build, you don't see a crash just a (subtly incorrect)
complaint about applying collation to a non-collatable type. I found
that by putting the incorrect structure further down in a view, I could
make a view definition that would fail dump/reload, per the added
regression test case. But CollateExpr doesn't do anything at run-time,
so this likely doesn't lead to any really exciting consequences.

Using Roman numbers (via "RM" or "rm") for a conversion to calculate a
number of months has never considered the case of negative numbers,
where a conversion could easily cause out-of-bound memory accesses. The
conversions in themselves were not completely consistent either, as
specifying 12 would result in NULL, but it should mean XII.
This commit reworks the conversion calculation to have a more
consistent behavior:
- If the number of months and years is 0, return NULL.
- If the number of months is positive, return the exact month number.
- If the number of months is negative, do a backward calculation, with
-1 meaning December, -2 November, etc.

The code in bringetbitmap() simply added the whole matching page range
to the TID bitmap, as determined by pages_per_range, even if some of the
pages were beyond the end of the heap. The query then might fail with
an error like this:
ERROR: could not open file "base/20176/20228.2" (target block
262144): previous segment is only 131021 blocks
In this case, the relation has 262093 pages (131072 and 131021 pages),
but we're trying to acess block 262144, i.e. first block of the 3rd
segment. At that point _mdfd_getseg() notices the preceding segment is
incomplete, and fails.
Hitting this in practice is rather unlikely, because:
* Most indexes use power-of-two ranges, so segments and page ranges
align perfectly (segment end is also a page range end).
* The table size has to be just right, with the last segment being
almost full - less than one page range from full segment, so that the
last page range actually crosses the segment boundary.
* Prefetch has to be enabled. The regular page access checks that
pages are not beyond heap end, but prefetch does not. On older
releases (before 12) the execution stops after hitting the first
non-existent page, so the prefetch distance has to be sufficient
to reach the first page in the next segment to trigger the issue.
Since 12 it's enough to just have prefetch enabled, the prefetch
distance does not matter.
Fixed by not adding non-existent pages to the TID bitmap. Backpatch
all the way back to 9.6 (BRIN indexes were introduced in 9.5, but that
release is EOL).

Maxim Orlov reported that the shutdown of standby server could result in
the following assertion failure. The cause of this issue was that,
when the shutdown caused the startup process to exit, recovery-time
transaction tracking was not shut down even if it's already initialized,
and some locks the tracked transactions were holding could not be released.
At this situation, if other process was invoked and the PGPROC entry that
the startup process used was assigned to it, it found such unreleased locks
and caused the assertion failure, during the initialization of it.
TRAP: FailedAssertion("SHMQueueEmpty(&(MyProc->myProcLocks[i]))"
This commit fixes this issue by making the startup process shut down
transaction tracking and release all locks, at the exit of it.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

Command-line options, or previous "ALTER (ROLE|DATABASE) ...
SET ROLE ..." commands, can change the value of the default role
for a session. In the presence of one of these, RESET ROLE will
change the current user identifier to the default role rather
than the session user identifier. Fix the documentation to
reflect this reality. Backpatch to all supported versions.

The current instructions describing how to write the backup_label and
tablespace_map files are confusing. For example, opening a file in text
mode on Windows and copy-pasting the file's contents would result in a
failure at recovery because of the extra CRLF characters generated. The
documentation was not stating that clearly, and per discussion this is
not considered as a supported scenario.
This commit extends a bit the documentation to mention that it may be
required to open the file in binary mode before writing its data.
