With track_io_timing = on, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) will emit fields
named like "I/O Read Time". The slash makes that invalid as an XML
element name, so that adding FORMAT XML would produce invalid XML.
We already have code in there to translate spaces to dashes, so let's
generalize that to convert anything that isn't a valid XML name character,
viz letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, and periods. We could just
reject slashes, which would run a bit faster. But the fact that this went
unnoticed for so long doesn't give me a warm feeling that we'd notice the
next creative violation, so let's make it a permanent fix.
Reported by Markus Winand, though this isn't his initial patch proposal.
Back-patch to 9.2 where track_io_timing was added. The problem is only
latent in 9.1, so I don't feel a need to fix it there.

While this isn't a lot of code, it's been essentially untestable for
a very long time, because libpq doesn't support anything older than
protocol 2.0, and has not since release 6.3. There's no reason to
believe any other client-side code still uses that protocol, either.

Historically, we've allowed users to add a CHECK constraint to a child
table and then add an identical CHECK constraint to the parent. This
results in "merging" the two constraints so that the pre-existing
child constraint ends up with both conislocal = true and coninhcount > 0.
However, if you tried to do it in the other order, you got a duplicate
constraint error. This is problematic for pg_dump, which needs to issue
separated ADD CONSTRAINT commands in some cases, but has no good way to
ensure that the constraints will be added in the required order.
And it's more than a bit arbitrary, too. The goal of complaining about
duplicated ADD CONSTRAINT commands can be served if we reject the case of
adding a constraint when the existing one already has conislocal = true;
but if it has conislocal = false, let's just make the ADD CONSTRAINT set
conislocal = true. In this way, either order of adding the constraints
has the same end result.
Another problem was that the code allowed creation of a parent constraint
marked convalidated that is merged with a child constraint that is
!convalidated. In this case, an inheritance scan of the parent table could
emit some rows violating the constraint condition, which would be an
unexpected result given the marking of the parent constraint as validated.
Hence, forbid merging of constraints in this case. (Note: valid child and
not-valid parent seems fine, so continue to allow that.)
Per report from Benedikt Grundmann. Back-patch to 9.2 where we introduced
possibly-not-valid check constraints. The second bug obviously doesn't
apply before that, and I think the first doesn't either, because pg_dump
only gets into this situation when dealing with not-valid constraints.

Attempting to COPY a subset of columns from a table with RLS enabled
would fail due to an invalid query being constructed (using a single
ColumnRef with the list of fields to exact in 'fields', but that's for
the different levels of an indirection for a single column, not for
specifying multiple columns).
Correct by building a ColumnRef and then RestTarget for each column
being requested and then adding those to the targetList for the select
query. Include regression tests to hopefully catch if this is broken
again in the future.

This makes the parameter easier to extend, to support other password-based
authentication protocols than MD5. (SCRAM is being worked on.)
The GUC still accepts on/off as aliases for "md5" and "plain", although
we may want to remove those once we actually add support for another
password hash type.

We were misapplying NameGetDatum() to plain C strings in some places.
This worked, because it was just a pointer cast anyway, but it's a type
cheat in some sense. Use CStringGetDatum instead, and modify the
NameGetDatum macro so it won't compile if applied to something that's
not a pointer to NameData. This should result in no changes to
generated code, but it is logically cleaner.

Previously, to update an extension you had to produce both a version-update
script and a new base installation script. It's become more and more
obvious that that's tedious, duplicative, and error-prone. This patch
attempts to improve matters by allowing the new base installation script
to be omitted. CREATE EXTENSION will install a requested version if it
can find a base script and a chain of update scripts that will get there.
As in the existing update logic, shorter chains are preferred if there's
more than one possibility, with an arbitrary tie-break rule for chains
of equal length.
Also adjust the pg_available_extension_versions view to show such versions
as installable.
While at it, refactor the code so that CASCADE processing works for
extensions requested during ApplyExtensionUpdates(). Without this,
addition of a new requirement in an updated extension would require
creating a new base script, even if there was no other reason to do that.
(It would be easy at this point to add a CASCADE option to ALTER EXTENSION
UPDATE, to allow the same thing to happen during a manually-commanded
version update, but I have not done that here.)

Not much to be said about this patch: it does what it says on the tin.
In passing, rename AlterEnumStmt.skipIfExists to skipIfNewValExists
to clarify what it actually does. In the discussion of this patch
we considered supporting other similar options, such as IF EXISTS
on the type as a whole or IF NOT EXISTS on the target name. This
patch doesn't actually add any such feature, but it might happen later.

Users often get confused between COPY and \copy and try to use client-side
paths with COPY. The server then cannot find the file (if remote), or sees
a permissions problem (if local), or some variant of that. Emit a hint
about this in the most common cases.
In future we might want to expand the set of errnos for which the hint
gets printed, but be conservative for now.

Add a location field to the DefElem struct, used to parse many utility
commands. Update various error messages to supply error position
information.
To propogate the error position information in a more systematic way,
create a ParseState in standard_ProcessUtility() and pass that to
interested functions implementing the utility commands. This seems
better than passing the query string and then reassembling a parse state
ad hoc, which violates the encapsulation of the ParseState type.

To prevent possibly breaking indexes on enum columns, we must keep
uncommitted enum values from getting stored in tables, unless we
can be sure that any such column is new in the current transaction.
Formerly, we enforced this by disallowing ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE
from being executed at all in a transaction block, unless the target
enum type had been created in the current transaction. This patch
removes that restriction, and instead insists that an uncommitted enum
value can't be referenced unless it belongs to an enum type created
in the same transaction as the value. Per discussion, this should be
a bit less onerous. It does require each function that could possibly
return a new enum value to SQL operations to check this restriction,
but there aren't so many of those that this seems unmaintainable.

When building libpq, ip.c and md5.c were symlinked or copied from
src/backend/libpq into src/interfaces/libpq, but now that we have a
directory specifically for routines that are shared between the server and
client binaries, src/common/, move them there.
Some routines in ip.c were only used in the backend. Keep those in
src/backend/libpq, but rename to ifaddr.c to avoid confusion with the file
that's now in common.
Fix the comment in src/common/Makefile to reflect how libpq actually links
those files.
There are two more files that libpq symlinks directly from src/backend:
encnames.c and wchar.c. I don't feel compelled to move those right now,
though.

I found that half a dozen (nearly 5%) of our AllocSetContextCreate calls
had typos in the context-sizing parameters. While none of these led to
especially significant problems, they did create minor inefficiencies,
and it's now clear that expecting people to copy-and-paste those calls
accurately is not a great idea. Let's reduce the risk of future errors
by introducing single macros that encapsulate the common use-cases.
Three such macros are enough to cover all but two special-purpose contexts;
those two calls can be left as-is, I think.
While this patch doesn't in itself improve matters for third-party
extensions, it doesn't break anything for them either, and they can
gradually adopt the simplified notation over time.
In passing, change TopMemoryContext to use the default allocation
parameters. Formerly it could only be extended 8K at a time. That was
probably reasonable when this code was written; but nowadays we create
many more contexts than we did then, so that it's not unusual to have a
couple hundred K in TopMemoryContext, even without considering various
dubious code that sticks other things there. There seems no good reason
not to let it use growing blocks like most other contexts.
Back-patch to 9.6, mostly because that's still close enough to HEAD that
it's easy to do so, and keeping the branches in sync can be expected to
avoid some future back-patching pain. The bugs fixed by these changes
don't seem to be significant enough to justify fixing them further back.

Per discussion, we should provide such functions to replace the lost
ability to discover AM properties by inspecting pg_am (cf commit
65c5fcd35). The added functionality is also meant to displace any code
that was looking directly at pg_index.indoption, since we'd rather not
believe that the bit meanings in that field are part of any client API
contract.
As future-proofing, define the SQL API to not assume that properties that
are currently AM-wide or index-wide will remain so unless they logically
must be; instead, expose them only when inquiring about a specific index
or even specific index column. Also provide the ability for an index
AM to override the behavior.
In passing, document pg_am.amtype, overlooked in commit 473b93287.

EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, TIMING OFF) would print an elapsed time of zero for
a trigger function, because no measurement has been taken but it printed
the field anyway. This isn't what EXPLAIN does elsewhere, so suppress it.
In the same vein, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) with non-text output format
would print buffer I/O timing numbers even when no measurement has been
taken because track_io_timing is off. That seems not per policy, either,
so change it.

If ANALYZE found no repeated non-null entries in its sample, it set the
column's stadistinct value to -1.0, intending to indicate that the entries
are all distinct. But what this value actually means is that the number
of distinct values is 100% of the table's rowcount, and thus it was
overestimating the number of distinct values by however many nulls there
are. This could lead to very poor selectivity estimates, as for example
in a recent report from Andreas Joseph Krogh. We should discount the
stadistinct value by whatever we've estimated the nulls fraction to be.
(That is what will happen if we choose to use a negative stadistinct for
a column that does have repeated entries, so this code path was just
inconsistent.)
In addition to fixing the stadistinct entries stored by several different
ANALYZE code paths, adjust the logic where get_variable_numdistinct()
forces an "all distinct" estimate on the basis of finding a relevant unique
index. Unique indexes don't reject nulls, so there's no reason to assume
that the null fraction doesn't apply.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Back-patching is a bit of a judgment
call, but this problem seems to affect only a few users (else we'd have
identified it long ago), and it's bad enough when it does happen that
destabilizing plan choices in a worse direction seems unlikely.

Discussion of commit 3e2f3c2e4 exposed a problem that is of longer
standing: since we don't detoast data while sticking it into a portal's
holdStore for PORTAL_ONE_RETURNING and PORTAL_UTIL_SELECT queries, and we
release the query's snapshot as soon as we're done loading the holdStore,
later readout of the holdStore can do TOAST fetches against data that can
no longer be seen by any of the session's live snapshots. This means that
a concurrent VACUUM could remove the TOAST data before we can fetch it.
Commit 3e2f3c2e4 exposed the problem by showing that sometimes we had *no*
live snapshots while fetching TOAST data, but we'd be at risk anyway.
I believe this code was all right when written, because our management of a
session's exposed xmin was such that the TOAST references were safe until
end of transaction. But that's no longer true now that we can advance or
clear our PGXACT.xmin intra-transaction.
To fix, copy the query's snapshot during FillPortalStore() and save it in
the Portal; release it only when the portal is dropped. This essentially
implements a policy that we must hold a relevant snapshot whenever we
access potentially-toasted data. We had already come to that conclusion
in other places, cf commits 08e261cbc94ce9a7 and ec543db77b6b72f2.
I'd have liked to add a regression test case for this, but I didn't see
a way to make one that's not unreasonably bloated; it seems to require
returning a toasted value to the client, and those will be big.
In passing, improve PortalRunUtility() so that it positively verifies
that its ending PopActiveSnapshot() call will pop the expected snapshot,
removing a rather shaky assumption about which utility commands might
do their own PopActiveSnapshot(). There's no known bug here, but now
that we're actively referencing the snapshot it's almost free to make
this code a bit more bulletproof.
We might want to consider back-patching something like this into older
branches, but it would be prudent to let it prove itself more in HEAD
beforehand.

Since a892234 & fd31cd265 the visibilitymap's freeze bit is used to
avoid vacuuming the whole relation in anti-wraparound vacuums. Doing so
correctly relies on not adding xids to the heap without also unsetting
the visibilitymap flag. Tuple locking related code has not done so.
To allow selectively resetting all-frozen - to avoid pessimizing
heap_lock_tuple - allow to selectively reset the all-frozen with
visibilitymap_clear(). To avoid having to use
visibilitymap_get_status (e.g. via VM_ALL_FROZEN) inside a critical
section, have visibilitymap_clear() return whether any bits have been
reset.
There's a remaining issue (denoted by XXX): After the PageIsAllVisible()
check in heap_lock_tuple() and heap_lock_updated_tuple_rec() the page
status could theoretically change. Practically that currently seems
impossible, because updaters will hold a page level pin already. Due to
the next beta coming up, it seems better to get the required WAL magic
bump done before resolving this issue.
The added flags field fields to xl_heap_lock and xl_heap_lock_updated
require bumping the WAL magic. Since there's already been a catversion
bump since the last beta, that's not an issue.

We have, for a very long time, allowed the same subplan (same member of the
PlannedStmt.subplans list) to be referenced by more than one SubPlan node;
this avoids problems for cases such as subplans within an IndexScan's
indxqual and indxqualorig fields. However, EXPLAIN had not gotten the memo
and would print each reference as though it were an independent identical
subplan. To fix, track plan_ids of subplans we've printed and don't print
the same plan_id twice. Per report from Pavel Stehule.
BTW: the particular case of IndexScan didn't cause visible duplication
in a plain EXPLAIN, only EXPLAIN ANALYZE, because in the former case we
short-circuit executor startup before the indxqual field is processed by
ExecInitExpr. That seems like it could easily lead to other EXPLAIN
problems in future, but it's not clear how to avoid it without breaking
the "EXPLAIN a plan using hypothetical indexes" use-case. For now I've
left that issue alone.
Although this is a longstanding bug, it's purely cosmetic (no great harm
is done by the repeat printout) and we haven't had field complaints before.
So I'm hesitant to back-patch it, especially since there is some small risk
of ABI problems due to the need to add a new field to ExplainState.
In passing, rearrange order of fields in ExplainState to be less random,
and update some obsolete comments about when/where to initialize them.

Previously, workers sent data to the leader using the client encoding.
That mostly worked, but the leader the converted the data back to the
server encoding. Since not all encoding conversions are reversible,
that could provoke failures. Fix by using the database encoding for
all communication between worker and leader.
Also, while temporary changes to GUC settings, as from the SET clause
of a function, are in general OK for parallel query, changing
client_encoding this way inside of a parallel worker is not OK.
Previously, that would have confused the leader; with these changes,
it would not confuse the leader, but it wouldn't do anything either.
So refuse such changes in parallel workers.
Also, the previous code naively assumed that when it received a
NotifyResonse from the worker, it could pass that directly back to the
user. But now that worker-to-leader communication always uses the
database encoding, that's clearly no longer correct - though,
actually, the old way was always broken for V2 clients. So
disassemble and reconstitute the message instead.

In non-text output formats, parallelized aggregates were reporting
"Partial" or "Finalize" as a field named "Operation", which might be all
right in the absence of any context --- but other plan node types use that
field to report SQL-visible semantics, such as Select/Insert/Update/Delete.
So that naming choice didn't seem good to me. I changed it to "Partial
Mode".
Also, the field did not appear at all for a non-parallelized Agg plan node,
which is contrary to expectation in non-text formats. We're notionally
producing objects that conform to a schema, so the set of fields for a
given node type and EXPLAIN mode should be well-defined. I set it up to
fill in "Simple" in such cases.
Other fields that were added for parallel query, namely "Parallel Aware"
and Gather's "Single Copy", had not gotten the word on that point either.
Make them appear always in non-text output.
Also, the latter two fields were nominally producing boolean output, but
were getting it wrong, because bool values shouldn't be quoted in JSON or
YAML. Somehow we'd not needed an ExplainPropertyBool formatting subroutine
before 9.6; but now we do, so invent it.

Previously, these commands always planned the given query and went through
executor startup before deciding not to actually run the query if WITH NO
DATA is specified. This behavior is problematic for pg_dump because it
may cause errors to be raised that we would rather not see before a
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW command is issued. See for example bug #13907
from Marian Krucina. This change is not sufficient to fix that particular
bug, because we also need to tweak pg_dump to issue the REFRESH later,
but it's a necessary step on the way.
A user-visible side effect of doing things this way is that the returned
command tag for WITH NO DATA cases will now be "CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW"
or "CREATE TABLE AS", not "SELECT 0". We could preserve the old behavior
but it would take more code, and arguably that was just an implementation
artifact not intended behavior anyhow.
In 9.5 and HEAD, also get rid of the static variable CreateAsReladdr, which
was trouble waiting to happen; there is not any prohibition on nested
CREATE commands.

The original coding had three separate booleans representing partial
aggregation behavior, which was confusing, unreadable, and error-prone,
not least because the booleans weren't always listed in the same order.
It was also inadequate for the allegedly-desirable future extension to
support intermediate partial aggregation, because we'd need separate
markers for serialization and deserialization in such a case.
Merge these bools into an enum "AggSplit" to provide symbolic names for
the supported operating modes (and document what those are). By assigning
the values of the enum constants carefully, we can treat AggSplit values
as options bitmasks so that tests of what to do aren't noticeably more
expensive than before.
While at it, get rid of Aggref.aggoutputtype. That's not needed since
commit 59a3795c2 got rid of setrefs.c's special-purpose Aggref comparison
code, and it likewise seemed more confusing than helpful.

The original specification for this called for the deserialization function
to have signature "deserialize(serialtype) returns transtype", which is a
security violation if transtype is INTERNAL (which it always would be in
practice) and serialtype is not (which ditto). The patch blithely overrode
the opr_sanity check for that, which was sloppy-enough work in itself,
but the indisputable reason this cannot be allowed to stand is that CREATE
FUNCTION will reject such a signature and thus it'd be impossible for
extensions to create parallelizable aggregates.
The minimum fix to make the signature type-safe is to add a second, dummy
argument of type INTERNAL. But to lock it down a bit more and make misuse
of INTERNAL-accepting functions less likely, let's get rid of the ability
to specify a "serialtype" for an aggregate and just say that the only
useful serialtype is BYTEA --- which, in practice, is the only interesting
value anyway, due to the usefulness of the send/recv infrastructure for
this purpose. That means we only have to allow "serialize(internal)
returns bytea" and "deserialize(bytea, internal) returns internal" as
the signatures for these support functions.
In passing fix bogus signature of int4_avg_combine, which I found thanks
to adding an opr_sanity check on combinefunc signatures.

If you really want to vacuum every single page in the relation,
regardless of apparent visibility status or anything else, you can use
this option. In previous releases, this behavior could be achieved
using VACUUM (FREEZE), but because we can now recognize all-frozen
pages as not needing to be frozen again, that no longer works. There
should be no need for routine use of this option, but maybe bugs or
disaster recovery will necessitate its use.

Commit a892234f830e832110f63fc0a2afce2fb21d1584 added a new bit per

all-frozen, but incorrectly assumed that if lazy_scan_heap chose to
freeze a tuple then that tuple would not need to later be frozen
again. This turns out to be false, because xmin and xmax (and
conceivably xvac, if dealing with tuples from very old releases) could
be frozen at separate times.

If a Gather node has read as many tuples as it needs (for example, due
to Limit) it may detach the queue connecting it to the worker before
reading all of the worker's tuples. Rather than let the worker
continue to generate and send all of the results, have it stop after
sending the next tuple.
More could be done here to stop the worker even quicker, but this is
about as well as we can hope to do for 9.6.
This is in response to a problem report from Andreas Seltenreich.
Commit 44339b892a04e94bbb472235882dc6f7023bdc65 should be actually be

vac_truncate_clog() uses its own transaction ID as the comparison point in
a sanity check that no database's datfrozenxid has already wrapped around
"into the future". That was probably fine when written, but in a lazy
vacuum we won't have assigned an XID, so calling GetCurrentTransactionId()
causes an XID to be assigned when otherwise one would not be. Most of the
time that's not a big problem ... but if we are hard up against the
wraparound limit, consuming XIDs during antiwraparound vacuums is a very
bad thing.
Instead, use ReadNewTransactionId(), which not only avoids this problem
but is in itself a better comparison point to test whether wraparound
has already occurred.

Default roles really should be like regular roles, for the most part.
This removes a number of checks that were trying to make default roles
extra special by not allowing them to be used as regular roles.
We still prevent users from creating roles in the "pg_" namespace or
from altering roles which exist in that namespace via ALTER ROLE, as
we can't preserve such changes, but otherwise the roles are very much
like regular roles.
Based on discussion with Robert and Tom.

The reverted changes were intended to force a choice of whether any
newly-added BufferGetPage() calls needed to be accompanied by a
test of the snapshot age, to support the "snapshot too old"
feature. Such an accompanying test is needed in about 7% of the
cases, where the page is being used as part of a scan rather than
positioning for other purposes (such as DML or vacuuming). The
additional effort required for back-patching, and the doubt whether
the intended benefit would really be there, have indicated it is
best just to rely on developers to do the right thing based on
comments and existing usage, as we do with many other conventions.
This change should have little or no effect on generated executable
code.
Motivated by the back-patching pain of Tom Lane and Robert Haas

Although OID acts pretty much like user data, the other system columns do
not, so an index on one would likely misbehave. And it's pretty hard to
see a use-case for one, anyway. Let's just forbid the case rather than
worry about whether it should be supported.

Careless coding added by commit 07cacba983ef79be could result in a crash
or a bizarre error message if someone tried to select an index on the
OID column as the replica identity index for a table. Back-patch to 9.4
where the feature was introduced.

The previous display was sort of confusing, because it didn't
distinguish between the number of workers that we planned to launch
and the number that actually got launched. This has already confused
several people, so display both numbers and label them clearly.

For a long time, opclasscmds.c explained that "we do not create a
dependency link to the AM [for an opclass or opfamily], because we don't
currently support DROP ACCESS METHOD". Commit 473b93287040b200 invented
DROP ACCESS METHOD, but it batted only 1 for 2 on adding the dependency
links, and 0 for 2 on updating the comments about the topic.
In passing, undo the same commit's entirely inappropriate decision to
blow away an existing index as a side-effect of create_am.sql.
