Warnings about unary minus might have been wrong. It's a bit
surprising that nobody noticed yet ... probably the precedence-warning
feature hasn't really been used much in the field.

The Bison documentation clearly states that a semicolon is required
after every grammar rule, and our scripts that generate ecpg's
grammar from the backend's implicitly assumed this is true. But it
turns out that only ancient versions of Bison actually enforce that.
There have been a couple of rules without trailing semicolons in
gram.y for some time, and as a consequence, ecpg's grammar was faulty
and produced wrong output for the affected statements.
To fix, add the missing semis, and add some cross-checks to ecpg's
scripts so that they'll bleat if we mess this up again.
The cases that were broken were:
* "SET variable = DEFAULT" (but not "SET variable TO DEFAULT"),
as well as allied syntaxes such as ALTER SYSTEM SET ... DEFAULT.
These produced syntactically invalid output that the server
would reject.
* Multiple type names in DROP TYPE/DOMAIN commands. Only the
first type name would be listed in the emitted command.
Per report from Daisuke Higuchi. Back-patch to all supported versions.

The grammar IF NOT EXISTS for CTAS is supported since 9.5 and documented
as such, however the case of using EXECUTE as query has never been
covered as EXECUTE CTAS statements and normal CTAS statements are parsed
separately.

Previously, parseCheckAggregates was run before
assign_query_collations, but this causes problems if any expression
has already had a collation assigned by some transform function (e.g.
transformCaseExpr) before parseCheckAggregates runs. The differing
collations would cause expressions not to be recognized as equal to
the ones in the GROUP BY clause, leading to spurious errors about
unaggregated column references.
The result was that CASE expr WHEN val ... would fail when "expr"
contained a GROUPING() expression or matched one of the group by
expressions, and where collatable types were involved; whereas the
supposedly identical CASE WHEN expr = val ... would succeed.
Backpatch all the way; this appears to have been wrong ever since
collations were introduced.

Commits c6b3c939b (which fixed the precedence of >=, <=, <> operators)
and 865f14a2d (which added support for the standard => notation for
named arguments) created a class of lexer tokens which look like
multi-character operators but which have their own token IDs distinct
from Op. However, longest-match rules meant that following any of
these tokens with another operator character, as in (1<>-1), would
cause them to be incorrectly returned as Op.
The error here isn't immediately obvious, because the parser would
usually still find the correct operator via the Op token, but there
were more subtle problems:
1. If immediately followed by a comment or +-, >= <= <> would be given
the old precedence of Op rather than the correct new precedence;
2. If followed by a comment, != would be returned as Op rather than as
NOT_EQUAL, causing it not to be found at all;
3. If followed by a comment or +-, the => token for named arguments
would be lexed as Op, causing the argument to be mis-parsed as a
simple expression, usually causing an error.
Fix by explicitly checking for the operators in the {operator} code
block in addition to all the existing special cases there.
Backpatch to 9.5 where the problem was introduced.

The lexer's handling of operators contained an O(N^3) hazard when
dealing with long strings of + or - characters; it seems hard to
prevent this case from being O(N^2), but the additional N multiplier
was not needed.
Backpatch all the way since this has been there since 7.x, and it
presents at least a mild hazard in that trying to do Bind, PREPARE or
EXPLAIN on a hostile query could take excessive time (without
honouring cancels or timeouts) even if the query was never executed.

When expanding an updatable view that is an INSERT's target, the rewriter
failed to rewrite Vars in the ON CONFLICT UPDATE clause. This accidentally
worked if the view was just "SELECT * FROM ...", as the transformation
would be a no-op in that case. With more complicated view targetlists,
this omission would often lead to "attribute ... has the wrong type" errors
or even crashes, as reported by Mario De Frutos Dieguez.
Fix by adding code to rewriteTargetView to fix up the data structure
correctly. The easiest way to update the exclRelTlist list is to rebuild
it from scratch looking at the new target relation, so factor the code
for that out of transformOnConflictClause to make it sharable.
In passing, avoid duplicate permissions checks against the EXCLUDED
pseudo-relation, and prevent useless view expansion of that relation's
dummy RTE. The latter is only known to happen (after this patch) in cases
where the query would fail later due to not having any INSTEAD OF triggers
for the view. But by exactly that token, it would create an unintended
and very poorly tested state of the query data structure, so it seems like
a good idea to prevent it from happening at all.
This has been broken since ON CONFLICT was introduced, so back-patch
to 9.5.

OFFSET <x> ROWS FETCH FIRST <y> ROWS ONLY syntax is supposed to accept
<simple value specification>, which includes parameters as well as
literals. When this syntax was added all those years ago, it was done
inconsistently, with <x> and <y> being different subsets of the
standard syntax.
Rectify that by making <x> and <y> accept the same thing, and allowing
either a (signed) numeric literal or a c_expr there, which allows for
parameters, variables, and parenthesized arbitrary expressions.

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
patch, and there seems no need to create a merge issue for that patch.
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.

The update path of an INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE requires SELECT
permission on the columns of the arbiter index, but it failed to check
for that in the case of an arbiter specified by constraint name.
In addition, for a table with row level security enabled, it failed to
check updated rows against the table's SELECT policies when the update
path was taken (regardless of how the arbiter index was specified).
Backpatch to 9.5 where ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE and RLS were introduced.

Commit d5b760ecb wasn't quite right, on second thought: if the
caller didn't ask for column names then it would happily emit
more Vars than if the caller did ask for column names. This
is surely not a good idea. Advance the aliasp_item whether or
not we're preparing a colnames list.

expandRTE() supposed that an RTE_SUBQUERY subquery must have exactly
as many non-junk tlist items as the RTE has column aliases for it.
This was true at the time the code was written, and is still true so
far as parse analysis is concerned --- but when the function is used
during planning, the subquery might have appeared through insertion
of a view that now has more columns than it did when the outer query
was parsed. This results in a core dump if, for instance, we have
to expand a whole-row Var that references the subquery.
To avoid crashing, we can either stop expanding the RTE when we run
out of aliases, or invent new aliases for the added columns. While
the latter might be more useful, the former is consistent with what
expandRTE() does for composite-returning functions in the RTE_FUNCTION
case, so it seems like we'd better do it that way.
Per bug #14876 from Samuel Horwitz. This has been busted since commit
ff1ea2173 allowed views to acquire more columns, so back-patch to all
supported branches.

check_agg_arguments_walker threw an error upon seeing a SRF or window

sub-select then it's perfectly fine. I broke the SRF case in commit
0436f6bde by copying the logic for window functions ... but that was
broken too, and had been since commit eaccfded9.

The NumericOnly grammar production accepted ICONST, + ICONST, - ICONST,
FCONST, and - FCONST, but for some reason not + FCONST. This led to
strange inconsistencies like
regression=# set random_page_cost = +4;
SET
regression=# set random_page_cost = 4000000000;
SET
regression=# set random_page_cost = +4000000000;
ERROR: syntax error at or near "4000000000"
(because 4000000000 is too large to be an ICONST). While there's
no actual functional reason to need to write a "+", if we allow
it for integers it seems like we should allow it for numerics too.
It's been like that forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Jeff Janes noted that the error cursor position shown for some errors
would vary when operator_precedence_warning is turned on. We'd prefer
that option to have no undocumented effects, so this isn't desirable.
To fix, make sure that an AEXPR_PAREN node has the same exprLocation
as its child node.
(Note: it would be a little cheaper to use @2 here instead of an
exprLocation call, but there are cases where that wouldn't produce
the identical answer, so don't do it like that.)

Having a WITH OIDS specification should result in the creation of an OID
column, but commit b943f502b broke that in the case that there were LIKE
tables without OIDS. Commentary in that patch makes it look like this was
intentional, but if so it was based on a faulty reading of what inheritance
does: the parent tables can add an OID column, but they can't subtract one.
AFAICS, the behavior ought to be that you get an OID column if any of the
inherited tables, LIKE tables, or WITH clause ask for one.
Also, revert that patch's unnecessary split of transformCreateStmt's loop
over the tableElts list into two passes. That seems to have been based on
a misunderstanding as well: we already have two-pass processing here,
we don't need three passes.

The U&'...' and U&"..." syntaxes silently discarded a surrogate pair
start (that is, a code between U+D800 and U+DBFF) if it occurred at
the very end of the string. This seems like an obvious oversight,

characters, including the very same situation in E'...' syntax.
This has been wrong since the pair processing was added (in 9.0),

expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type() reported the exprType() and
exprTypmod() values of the expressions in the first row of the VALUES as
being the column type/typmod returned by the VALUES RTE. That's fine for
the data type, since we coerce all expressions in a column to have the same
common type. But we don't coerce them to have a common typmod, so it was
possible for rows after the first one to return values that violate the
claimed column typmod. This leads to the incorrect result seen in bug
#14448 from Hassan Mahmood, as well as some other corner-case misbehaviors.
The desired behavior is the same as we use in other type-unification
cases: report the common typmod if there is one, but otherwise return -1
indicating no particular constraint.
We fixed this in HEAD by deriving the typmods during transformValuesClause
and storing them in the RTE, but that's not a feasible solution in the back
branches. Instead, just use a brute-force approach of determining the
correct common typmod during expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type().
Simple testing says that that doesn't really cost much, at least not in
common cases where expandRTE() is only used once per query. It turns out
that get_rte_attribute_type() is typically never used at all on VALUES
RTEs, so the inefficiency there is of no great concern.

transformOnConflictClause incremented p_next_resno while generating the
phony targetlist for the EXCLUDED pseudo-rel. Then that field got
incremented some more during transformTargetList, possibly leading to
free_parsestate concluding that we'd overrun the allowed length of a tlist,
as reported by Justin Pryzby.
We could fix this by resetting p_next_resno to 1 after using it for the
EXCLUDED pseudo-rel tlist, but it seems easier and less coupled to other
places if we just don't use that field at all in this loop. (Note that
this doesn't change anything about the resnos that end up appearing in
the main target list, because those are all replaced with target-column
numbers by updateTargetListEntry.)
In passing, fix incorrect type OID assigned to the whole-row Var for
"EXCLUDED.*" (somehow this escaped having any bad consequences so far,
but it's certainly wrong); remove useless assignment to var->location;
pstrdup the column names in case of a relcache flush; and improve
nearby comments.

Because we use transformTargetList() for UPDATE as well as SELECT
tlists, the code accidentally tried to expand a "*" reference into
several columns. This is nonsensical, because the UPDATE syntax
provides exactly one target column to put the value into. The
immediate result was that transformUpdateTargetList() got confused
and reported "UPDATE target count mismatch --- internal error".
It seems better to treat such a reference as a plain whole-row
variable, as it would be in other contexts. (This could produce
useful results when the target column is of composite type.)
Fix by tweaking transformTargetList() to perform *-expansion only
conditionally, depending on its exprKind parameter.
Back-patch to 9.3. The problem exists further back, but a fix would be
much more invasive before that, because transformTargetList() wasn't
told what kind of list it was working on. Doesn't seem worth the
trouble given the lack of field reports. (I only noticed it because
I was checking the code while trying to improve the documentation about
how we handle "foo.*".)

Previously, if an INSERT with multiple rows of VALUES had indirection
(array subscripting or field selection) in its target-columns list, the
parser handled that by applying transformAssignedExpr() to each element
of each VALUES row independently. This led to having ArrayRef assignment
nodes or FieldStore nodes in each row of the VALUES RTE. That works for
simple cases, but in bug #14265 Nuri Boardman points out that it fails
if there are multiple assignments to elements/fields of the same target
column. For such cases to work, rewriteTargetListIU() has to nest the
ArrayRefs or FieldStores together to produce a single expression to be
assigned to the column. But it failed to find them in the top-level
targetlist and issued an error about "multiple assignments to same column".
We could possibly fix this by teaching the rewriter to apply
rewriteTargetListIU to each VALUES row separately, but that would be messy
(it would change the output rowtype of the VALUES RTE, for example) and
inefficient. Instead, let's fix the parser so that the VALUES RTE outputs
are just the user-specified values, cast to the right type if necessary,
and then the ArrayRefs or FieldStores are applied in the top-level
targetlist to Vars representing the RTE's outputs. This is the same
parsetree representation already used for similar cases with INSERT/SELECT
syntax, so it allows simplifications in ruleutils.c, which no longer needs
to treat INSERT-from-multiple-VALUES as its own special case.
This implementation works by applying transformAssignedExpr to the VALUES
entries as before, and then stripping off any ArrayRefs or FieldStores it
adds. With lots of VALUES rows it would be noticeably more efficient to
not add those nodes in the first place. But that's just an optimization
not a bug fix, and there doesn't seem to be any good way to do it without
significant refactoring. (A non-invasive answer would be to apply
transformAssignedExpr + stripping to just the first VALUES row, and then
just forcibly cast remaining rows to the same data types exposed in the
first row. But this way would lead to different, not-INSERT-specific
errors being reported in casting failure cases, so it doesn't seem very
nice.) So leave that for later; this patch at least isn't making the
per-row parsing work worse, and it does make the finished parsetree
smaller, saving rewriter and planner work.
Catversion bump because stored rules containing such INSERTs would need
to change. Because of that, no back-patch, even though this is a very
long-standing bug.

Now that we've nailed down the principle that NullTest with !argisrow
is fully equivalent to SQL's IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM NULL, let's teach
the parser about it. This produces a slightly more compact parse tree
and is much more amenable to optimization than a DistinctExpr, since
the planner knows a good deal about NullTest and next to nothing about
DistinctExpr.
I'm not sure that there are all that many queries in the wild that could
be improved by this, but at least one source of such cases is the patch
just made to postgres_fdw to emit IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM NULL when
IS [NOT] NULL isn't semantically correct.
No back-patch, since to the extent that this does affect planning results,
it might be considered undesirable plan destabilization.

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.

When doing partial aggregation, the args list of the upper (combining)
Aggref node is replaced by a Var representing the output of the partial
aggregation steps, which has either the aggregate's transition data type
or a serialized representation of that. However, nodeAgg.c blindly
continued to use the args list as an indication of the user-level argument
types. This broke resolution of polymorphic transition datatypes at
executor startup (though it accidentally failed to fail for the ANYARRAY
case, which is likely the only one anyone had tested). Moreover, the
constructed FuncExpr passed to the finalfunc contained completely wrong
information, which would have led to bogus answers or crashes for any case
where the finalfunc examined that information (which is only likely to be
with polymorphic aggregates using a non-polymorphic transition type).
As an independent bug, apply_partialaggref_adjustment neglected to resolve
a polymorphic transition datatype before assigning it as the output type
of the lower-level Aggref node. This again accidentally failed to fail
for ANYARRAY but would be unlikely to work in other cases.
To fix the first problem, record the user-level argument types in a
separate OID-list field of Aggref, and look to that rather than the args
list when asking what the argument types were. (It turns out to be
convenient to include any "direct" arguments in this list too, although
those are not currently subject to being overwritten.)
Rather than adding yet another resolve_aggregate_transtype() call to fix
the second problem, add an aggtranstype field to Aggref, and store the
resolved transition type OID there when the planner first computes it.
(By doing this in the planner and not the parser, we can allow the
aggregate's transition type to change from time to time, although no DDL
support yet exists for that.) This saves nothing of consequence for
simple non-polymorphic aggregates, but for polymorphic transition types
we save a catalog lookup during executor startup as well as several
planner lookups that are new in 9.6 due to parallel query planning.
In passing, fix an error that was introduced into count_agg_clauses_walker
some time ago: it was applying exprTypmod() to something that wasn't an
expression node at all, but a TargetEntry. exprTypmod silently returned
-1 so that there was not an obvious failure, but this broke the intended
sensitivity of aggregate space consumption estimates to the typmod of
varchar and similar data types. This part needs to be back-patched.

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.

support for it.
psql was also missing a way to list existing access methods; the new \dA
command does that.
Also add tab-completion support for DROP ACCESS METHOD.

It'd be good for "(x AND y) AND z" to produce a three-child AND node
whether or not operator_precedence_warning is on, but that failed to
happen when it's on because makeAndExpr() didn't look through the added
AEXPR_PAREN node. This has no effect on generated plans because prepqual.c
would flatten the AND nest anyway; but it does affect the number of parens
printed in ruleutils.c, for example. I'd already fixed some similar
hazards in parse_expr.c in commit abb164655, but didn't think to search
gram.y for problems of this ilk. Per gripe from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.

Dating back to commit f10b63923, our grammar has allowed "USING" to
optionally appear before an opclass name in CREATE INDEX (and, lately,
some related places such as ON CONFLICT specifications). Nikolay Shaplov
noticed that this syntax existed but wasn't documented, and proposed
documenting it. But what seems like a better idea is to remove the
production, thereby making the code match the docs not vice versa.
This isn't our usual modus operandi for such cases, but there are a
couple of good reasons to proceed this way:
* So far as I can find, this syntax has never been documented anywhere.
It isn't relied on by any of our own code or test cases, and there seems
little reason to suppose that it's been used in the wild either.
* Documenting it would mean that there would be two separate uses of
USING in the CREATE INDEX syntax, the other being "USING access_method".
That can lead to nothing but confusion.
So, let's just remove it. On the off chance that somebody somewhere
is using it, this isn't something to back-patch, but we can fix it
in HEAD.

If RAW_EXPRESSION_COVERAGE_TEST is defined, do a no-op tree walk over
every basic DML statement submitted to parse analysis. If we'd had this
in place earlier, bug #14153 would have been caught by buildfarm testing.
The difficulty is that raw_expression_tree_walker() is only used in
limited cases involving CTEs (particularly recursive ones), so it's
very easy for an oversight in it to not be noticed during testing of a
seemingly-unrelated feature.
The type of error we can expect to catch with this is complete omission
of a node type from raw_expression_tree_walker(), and perhaps also
recursion into a field that doesn't contain a node tree, though that
would be an unlikely mistake. It won't catch failure to add new fields
that need to be recursed into, unfortunately.
I'll go enable this on one or two of my own buildfarm animals once
bug #14153 is dealt with.

The implementation of that feature involves injecting nodes into the
raw parsetree where explicit parentheses appear. Various places in
parse_expr.c that test to see "is this child node of type Foo" need to
look through such nodes, else we'll get different behavior when
operator_precedence_warning is on than when it is off. Note that we only
need to handle this when testing untransformed child nodes, since the
AEXPR_PAREN nodes will be gone anyway after transformExprRecurse.
Per report from Scott Ribe and additional code-reading. Back-patch
to 9.5 where this feature was added.

Now indexes (but only B-tree for now) can contain "extra" column(s) which
doesn't participate in index structure, they are just stored in leaf
tuples. It allows to use index only scan by using single index instead
of two or more indexes.

This introduces a new dependency type which marks an object as depending
on an extension, such that if the extension is dropped, the object
automatically goes away; and also, if the database is dumped, the object
is included in the dump output. Currently the grammar supports this for
indexes, triggers, materialized views and functions only, although the
utility code is generic so adding support for more object types is a
matter of touching the parser rules only.

Our actual convention, contrary to what I said in 59a2111b23f, is not to
quote type names, as evidenced by unquoted use of format_type_be()
result value in error messages. Remove quotes from recently tweaked
messages accordingly.

This is necessary infrastructure for supporting parallel aggregation
for aggregates whose transition type is "internal". Such values
can't be passed between cooperating processes, because they are
just pointers.

Change the slightly different variations of the message
function FOO must return type BAR
to a single wording, removing the variability in type name so that they
all create a single translation entry; since the type name is not to be
translated, there's no point in it being part of the message anyway.
Also, change them all to use the same quoting convention, namely that
the function name is not to be quoted but the type name is. (I'm not
quite sure why this is so, but it's the clear majority.)
Some similar messages such as "encoding conversion function FOO must ..."
are also changed.

This completes (at least for now) the project of getting rid of ad-hoc
linkages among the src/bin/ subdirectories. Everything they share is now
in src/fe_utils/ and is included from a static library at link time.
A side benefit is that we can restore the FLEX_NO_BACKUP check for
psqlscanslash.l. We might need to think of another way to do that check
if we ever need to build two lexers with that property in the same source
directory, but there's no foreseeable reason to need that.

This enables external code to create access methods. This is useful so
that extensions can add their own access methods which can be formally
tracked for dependencies, so that DROP operates correctly. Also, having
explicit support makes pg_dump work correctly.
Currently only index AMs are supported, but we expect different types to
be added in the future.

Now that we have src/common/ for code shared between frontend and backend,
we can get rid of (most of) the klugy ways that the keyword table and
keyword lookup code were formerly shared between different uses.
This is a first step towards a more general plan of getting rid of
special-purpose kluges for sharing code in src/bin/.
I chose to merge kwlookup.c back into keywords.c, as it once was, and
always has been so far as keywords.h is concerned. We could have
kept them separate, but there is noplace that uses ScanKeywordLookup
without also wanting access to the backend's keyword list, so there
seems little point.
ecpg is still a bit weird, but at least now the trickiness is documented.
I think that the MSVC build script should require no adjustments beyond
what's done here ... but we'll soon find out.

Parallel workers can now partially aggregate the data and pass the
transition values back to the leader, which can combine the partial
results to produce the final answer.
