check_agg_arguments_walker threw an error upon seeing a SRF or window
function, but that is too aggressive: if the function is within a
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.
Repair both cases in HEAD, and the window function case back to 9.3.
9.2 gets this right.

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.)
Back-patch to 9.5 where this feature was introduced.

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,
since we throw an error for every other invalid combination of surrogate
characters, including the very same situation in E'...' syntax.
This has been wrong since the pair processing was added (in 9.0),
so back-patch to all supported branches.

Back-patch commit 72b1e3a21 into the pre-9.6 branches.
As noted in the original commit, this has some extra benefits: we can
narrow the scope of the -Wno-error flag that's forced on scan.c. Also,
since these grammar and lexer files are so large, splitting them into
separate build targets should have some advantages in build speed,
particularly in parallel or ccache'd builds.
However, the real reason for doing this now is that it avoids symbol-
redefinition warnings (or worse) with the latest version of flex.
It's not unreasonable that people would want to compile our old branches
with recent tools. Per report from Дилян Палаузов.

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.*".)

The docs failed to explain that LIKE INCLUDING INDEXES would not preserve

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.

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.

Commit e529cd4ffa605c6f introduced an Assert requiring NAMEDATALEN to be
less than MAX_LEVENSHTEIN_STRLEN, which has been 255 for a long time.
Since up to that instant we had always allowed NAMEDATALEN to be
substantially more than that, this was ill-advised.
It's debatable whether we need MAX_LEVENSHTEIN_STRLEN at all (versus
putting a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into the loop), or whether it has to be
so tight; but this patch takes the narrower approach of just not applying
the MAX_LEVENSHTEIN_STRLEN limit to calls from the parser.
Trusting the parser for this seems reasonable, first because the strings
are limited to NAMEDATALEN which is unlikely to be hugely more than 256,
and second because the maximum distance is tightly constrained by
MAX_FUZZY_DISTANCE (though we'd forgotten to make use of that limit in one
place). That means the cost is not really O(mn) but more like O(max(m,n)).
Relaxing the limit for user-supplied calls is left for future research;
given the lack of complaints to date, it doesn't seem very high priority.
In passing, fix confusion between lengths-in-bytes and lengths-in-chars
in comments and error messages.
Per gripe from Kevin Day; solution suggested by Robert Haas. Back-patch
to 9.5 where the unwanted restriction was introduced.

Putting a reference to an expanded-format value into a Const node would be
a bad idea for a couple of reasons. It'd be possible for the supposedly
immutable Const to change value, if something modified the referenced
variable ... in fact, if the Const's reference were R/W, any function that
has the Const as argument might itself change it at runtime. Also, because
datumIsEqual() is pretty simplistic, the Const might fail to compare equal
to other Consts that it should compare equal to, notably including copies
of itself. This could lead to unexpected planner behavior, such as "could
not find pathkey item to sort" errors or inferior plans.
I have not been able to find any way to get an expanded value into a Const
within the existing core code; but Paul Ramsey was able to trigger the
problem by writing a datatype input function that returns an expanded
value.
The best fix seems to be to establish a rule that varlena values being
placed into Const nodes should be passed through pg_detoast_datum().
That will do nothing (and cost little) in normal cases, but it will flatten
expanded values and thereby avoid the above problems. Also, it will
convert short-header or compressed values into canonical format, which will
avoid possible unexpected lack-of-equality issues for those cases too.
And it provides a last-ditch defense against putting a toasted value into
a Const, which we already knew was dangerous, cf commit 2b0c86b66563cf2f.
(In the light of this discussion, I'm no longer sure that that commit
provided 100% protection against such cases, but this fix should do it.)
The test added in commit 65c3d05e18e7c530 to catch datatype input functions
with unstable results would fail for functions that returned expanded
values; but it seems a bit uncharitable to deem a result unstable just
because it's expressed in expanded form, so revise the coding so that we
check for bitwise equality only after applying pg_detoast_datum(). That's
a sufficient condition anyway given the new rule about detoasting when
forming a Const.
Back-patch to 9.5 where the expanded-object facility was added. It's
possible that this should go back further; but in the absence of clear
evidence that there's any live bug in older branches, I'll refrain for now.

row_security=off overrides FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY, to ensure pg_dump

Also add SECURITY_NOFORCE_RLS context to avoid data corruption when
ALTER TABLE .. FORCE ROW SECURITY is being used. The
SECURITY_NOFORCE_RLS security context is used only during referential

Four related issues:
1) attnos/varnos/resnos for EXCLUDED were out of sync when a column
after one dropped in the underlying relation was referenced.
2) References to whole-row variables (i.e. EXCLUDED.*) lead to errors.
3) It was possible to reference system columns in the EXCLUDED pseudo
relations, even though they would not have valid contents.
4) References to EXCLUDED were rewritten by the RLS machinery, as
EXCLUDED was treated as if it were the underlying relation.
To fix the first two issues, generate the excluded targetlist with
dropped columns in mind and add an entry for whole row
variables. Instead of unconditionally adding a wholerow entry we could
pull up the expression if needed, but doing it unconditionally seems
simpler. The wholerow entry is only really needed for ruleutils/EXPLAIN
support anyway.
The remaining two issues are addressed by changing the EXCLUDED RTE to
have relkind = composite. That fits with EXCLUDED not actually being a
real relation, and allows to treat it differently in the relevant
places. scanRTEForColumn now skips looking up system columns when the
RTE has a composite relkind; fireRIRrules() already had a corresponding
check, thereby preventing RLS expansion on EXCLUDED.
Also add tests for these issues, and improve a few comments around
excluded handling in setrefs.c.

The allowed syntax for OVERLAPS, viz "row OVERLAPS row", is sufficiently
constrained that we don't actually need a precedence declaration for
OVERLAPS; indeed removing this declaration does not change the generated

OVERLAPS has precedence or not. If we ever generalize what we allow for
OVERLAPS, we might need to put back a precedence declaration for it,
but we might want some other level than what it has today --- and leaving
the declaration there would just risk confusion about whether that would
be an incompatible change.
Likewise, remove OVERLAPS from the documentation's precedence table.

The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method
API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without
specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can
implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable
thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will
pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural
language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level
support object needed is a single handler function identified by having
a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog
altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature.
Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments
(the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at
ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright
unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples.
Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable
within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more
honestly with methods that can't support that requirement.
Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix
assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as
failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering).
Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too.
Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API
in production.

Handling of assigned-to expressions with indirection (e.g. set f1[1] =
3) was broken for ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE. The problem was that
ParseState was consulted to determine if an INSERT-appropriate or
UPDATE-appropriate behavior should be used when transforming expressions
with indirections. When the wrong path was taken the old row was
substituted with NULL, leading to wrong results..
To fix remove p_is_update and only use p_is_insert to decide how to
transform the assignment expression, and uset p_is_insert while parsing
the on conflict statement. This isn't particularly pretty, but it's not
any worse than before.

A few places assumed they could pass NULL for the argtypes array when
looking up functions known to have zero arguments. At first glance
it seems that this should be safe enough, since memcmp() is surely not
allowed to fetch any bytes if its count argument is zero. However,
close reading of the C standard says that such calls have undefined
behavior, so we'd probably best avoid it.
Since the number of places doing this is quite small, and some other
places looking up zero-argument functions were already passing dummy
arrays, let's standardize on the latter solution rather than hacking
the function lookup code to avoid calling memcmp() in these cases.
I also added Asserts to catch any future violations of the new rule.
Given the utter lack of any evidence that this actually causes any
problems in the field, I don't feel a need to back-patch this change.

Also fix a few other typos spotted while grepping for the a/an typos.
For example, "consists out of ..." -> "consists of ...". Plus a "though"/
"through" mixup reported by Euler Taveira.
Many of these typos were in old code, which would be nice to backpatch to
make future backpatching easier. But much of the code was new, and I didn't

This SQL standard functionality allows to aggregate data by different
GROUP BY clauses at once. Each grouping set returns rows with columns
grouped by in other sets set to NULL.
This could previously be achieved by doing each grouping as a separate
query, conjoined by UNION ALLs. Besides being considerably more concise,
grouping sets will in many cases be faster, requiring only one scan over
the underlying data.
The current implementation of grouping sets only supports using sorting
for input. Individual sets that share a sort order are computed in one
pass. If there are sets that don't share a sort order, additional sort &
aggregation steps are performed. These additional passes are sourced by
the previous sort step; thus avoiding repeated scans of the source data.
The code is structured in a way that adding support for purely using
hash aggregation or a mix of hashing and sorting is possible. Sorting
was chosen to be supported first, as it is the most generic method of
implementation.
Instead of, as in an earlier versions of the patch, representing the
chain of sort and aggregation steps as full blown planner and executor
nodes, all but the first sort are performed inside the aggregation node
itself. This avoids the need to do some unusual gymnastics to handle
having to return aggregated and non-aggregated tuples from underlying
nodes, as well as having to shut down underlying nodes early to limit
memory usage. The optimizer still builds Sort/Agg node to describe each
phase, but they're not part of the plan tree, but instead additional
data for the aggregation node. They're a convenient and preexisting way
to describe aggregation and sorting. The first (and possibly only) sort
step is still performed as a separate execution step. That retains
similarity with existing group by plans, makes rescans fairly simple,
avoids very deep plans (leading to slow explains) and easily allows to
avoid the sorting step if the underlying data is sorted by other means.
A somewhat ugly side of this patch is having to deal with a grammar
ambiguity between the new CUBE keyword and the cube extension/functions
named cube (and rollup). To avoid breaking existing deployments of the
cube extension it has not been renamed, neither has cube been made a
reserved keyword. Instead precedence hacking is used to make GROUP BY
cube(..) refer to the CUBE grouping sets feature, and not the function
cube(). To actually group by a function cube(), unlikely as that might
be, the function name has to be quoted.
Needs a catversion bump because stored rules may change.

This feature lets user code inspect and take action on DDL events.
Whenever a ddl_command_end event trigger is installed, DDL actions
executed are saved to a list which can be inspected during execution of
a function attached to ddl_command_end.
The set-returning function pg_event_trigger_ddl_commands can be used to
list actions so captured; it returns data about the type of command
executed, as well as the affected object. This is sufficient for many
uses of this feature. For the cases where it is not, we also provide a
"command" column of a new pseudo-type pg_ddl_command, which is a
pointer to a C structure that can be accessed by C code. The struct
contains all the info necessary to completely inspect and even
reconstruct the executed command.
There is no actual deparse code here; that's expected to come later.
What we have is enough infrastructure that the deparsing can be done in
an external extension. The intention is that we will add some deparsing
code in a later release, as an in-core extension.
A new test module is included. It's probably insufficient as is, but it
should be sufficient as a starting point for a more complete and
future-proof approach.

The newly added ON CONFLICT clause allows to specify an alternative to
raising a unique or exclusion constraint violation error when inserting.
ON CONFLICT refers to constraints that can either be specified using a
inference clause (by specifying the columns of a unique constraint) or
by naming a unique or exclusion constraint. DO NOTHING avoids the
constraint violation, without touching the pre-existing row. DO UPDATE
SET ... [WHERE ...] updates the pre-existing tuple, and has access to
both the tuple proposed for insertion and the existing tuple; the
optional WHERE clause can be used to prevent an update from being
executed. The UPDATE SET and WHERE clauses have access to the tuple
proposed for insertion using the "magic" EXCLUDED alias, and to the
pre-existing tuple using the table name or its alias.
This feature is often referred to as upsert.
This is implemented using a new infrastructure called "speculative
insertion". It is an optimistic variant of regular insertion that first
does a pre-check for existing tuples and then attempts an insert. If a
violating tuple was inserted concurrently, the speculatively inserted
tuple is deleted and a new attempt is made. If the pre-check finds a
matching tuple the alternative DO NOTHING or DO UPDATE action is taken.
If the insertion succeeds without detecting a conflict, the tuple is
deemed inserted.
To handle the possible ambiguity between the excluded alias and a table
named excluded, and for convenience with long relation names, INSERT
INTO now can alias its target table.
Bumps catversion as stored rules change.

Previously, relation range table entries used a single Bitmapset field
representing which columns required either UPDATE or INSERT privileges,
despite the fact that INSERT and UPDATE privileges are separately
cataloged, and may be independently held. As statements so far required
either insert or update privileges but never both, that was
sufficient. The required permission could be inferred from the top level
statement run.
The upcoming INSERT ... ON CONFLICT UPDATE feature needs to
independently check for both privileges in one statement though, so that
is not sufficient anymore.
Bumps catversion as stored rules change.

coerce_type() has local variables named targetTypeId, baseTypeId, and
targetType. targetType has been the Type structure for baseTypeId, so
rename it to baseType.

Tom Lane pointed out that this wasn't done, and asked whether that was
intentional. Subsequent discussion was in favor of making the change,
so here we go.

In commit 31eae6028eca4, some documents were not updated to show the new
capability; fix that. Also, the error message you get when CURRENT_USER
and SESSION_USER are used in a context that doesn't accept them could be
clearer about it being a problem only in those contexts; so add the
word "here".

His patch submission also included changes to GRANT/REVOKE, but those
seemed more controversial, so I left them out. We can reconsider these
changes later.

I thought I'd gone through all of these before, but a fresh review found
this one too. (Perhaps it would be better to just delete this test and
let the failure occur later, but for the moment I'll preserve the logic.)
The case that this was rejecting is like
CREATE FOREIGN TABLE ft (f1 int ...) ...;
CREATE TABLE c1 (UNIQUE(f1)) INHERITS(ft);

This provides a mechanism for specifying conversions between SQL data
types and procedural languages. As examples, there are transforms
for hstore and ltree for PL/Perl and PL/Python.

pg_dump has historically assumed that default_with_oids affects only plain
tables and not other relkinds. Conceivably we could make it apply to some
newly invented relkind if we did so from the get-go, but changing the
behavior for existing object types will break existing dump scripts.
Add code comments warning about this interaction.
Also, make sure that default_with_oids doesn't cause parse_utilcmd.c to
think that CREATE FOREIGN TABLE will create an OID column. I think this is
only a latent bug right now, since we don't allow UNIQUE/PKEY constraints
in CREATE FOREIGN TABLE, but it's better to be consistent and future-proof.

Previously, tables created by CREATE LIKE never had OIDs.

FORCE option has been marked "obsolete" since very old version 7.4
but existed for backwards compatibility. Per discussion on pgsql-hackers,
we concluded that it's no longer worth keeping supporting the option.

This lets later stages have access to the transformed expression; in
particular it allows DDL-deparsing code during event triggers to pass
the transformed expression to ruleutils.c, so that the complete command
can be deparsed.
This shuffles the timing of the transform calls a bit: previously,
nothing was transformed during parse analysis, and only the
RELKIND_RELATION case was being handled during execution. After this
patch, all expressions are transformed during parse analysis (including
those for relkinds other than RELATION), and the error for other
relation kinds is thrown only during execution. So we do more work than
before to reject some bogus cases. That seems acceptable.

There are other comments in there that don't precisely match what's
implemented, but this one confused me enough to be worth fixing.

Also add regression test. Previously this was documented to work, but
didn't.
