Our parallel-mode code only works when we are executing a query
in full, so ExecutePlan must disable parallel mode when it is
asked to do partial execution. The previous logic for this
involved passing down a flag (variously named execute_once or
run_once) from callers of ExecutorRun or PortalRun. This is
overcomplicated, and unsurprisingly some of the callers didn't
get it right, since it requires keeping state that not all of
them have handy; not to mention that the requirements for it were
undocumented. That led to assertion failures in some corner
cases. The only state we really need for this is the existing
QueryDesc.already_executed flag, so let's just put all the
responsibility in ExecutePlan. (It could have been done in
ExecutorRun too, leading to a slightly shorter patch -- but if
there's ever more than one caller of ExecutePlan, it seems better
to have this logic in the subroutine than the callers.)
This makes those ExecutorRun/PortalRun parameters unnecessary.
In master it seems okay to just remove them, returning the
API for those functions to what it was before parallelism.
Such an API break is clearly not okay in stable branches,
but for them we can just leave the parameters in place after
documenting that they do nothing.
Per report from Yugo Nagata, who also reviewed and tested
this patch. Back-patch to all supported branches.

When using a pipeline, a transaction starts from the first command and
is committed with a Sync message or when the pipeline ends.
Functions like IsInTransactionBlock() or PreventInTransactionBlock()
were already able to understand a pipeline as being in a transaction
block, but it was not the case of CheckTransactionBlock(). This
function is called for example to generate a WARNING for SET LOCAL,
complaining that it is used outside of a transaction block.
The current state of the code caused multiple problems, like:
- SET LOCAL executed at any stage of a pipeline issued a WARNING, even
if the command was at least second in line where the pipeline is in a
transaction state.
- LOCK TABLE failed when invoked at any step of a pipeline, even if it
should be able to work within a transaction block.
The pipeline protocol assumes that the first command of a pipeline is
not part of a transaction block, and that any follow-up commands is
considered as within a transaction block.
This commit changes the backend so as an implicit transaction block is
started each time the first Execute message of a pipeline has finished
processing, with this implicit transaction block ended once a sync is
processed. The checks based on XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING in the routines
checking if we are in a transaction block are not necessary: it is
enough to rely on the existing ones.
Some tests are added to pgbench, that can be backpatched down to v17
when \syncpipeline is involved and down to v14 where \startpipeline and
\endpipeline are available. This is unfortunately limited regarding the
error patterns that can be checked, but it provides coverage for various
pipeline combinations to check if these succeed or fail. These tests
are able to capture the case of SET LOCAL's WARNING. The author has
proposed a different feature to improve the coverage by adding similar
meta-commands to psql where error messages could be checked, something
more useful for the cases where commands cannot be used in transaction
blocks, like REINDEX CONCURRENTLY or VACUUM. This is considered as
future work for v18~.

This commit adds query ID reports for two code paths when processing
extended query protocol messages:
- When receiving a bind message, setting it to the first Query retrieved
from a cached cache.
- When receiving an execute message, setting it to the first PlannedStmt
stored in a portal.
An advantage of this method is that this is able to cover all the types
of portals handled in the extended query protocol, particularly these
two when the report done in ExecutorStart() is not enough (neither is an
addition in ExecutorRun(), actually, for the second point):
- Multiple execute messages, with multiple ExecutorRun().
- Portal with execute/fetch messages, like a query with a RETURNING
clause and a fetch size that stores the tuples in a first execute
message going though ExecutorStart() and ExecuteRun(), followed by one
or more execute messages doing only fetches from the tuplestore created
in the first message. This corresponds to the case where
execute_is_fetch is set, for example.
Note that the query ID reporting done in ExecutorStart() is still
necessary, as an EXECUTE requires it. Query ID reporting is optimistic
and more calls to pgstat_report_query_id() don't matter as the first
report takes priority except if the report is forced. The comment in
ExecutorStart() is adjusted to reflect better the reality with the
extended query protocol.
The test added in pg_stat_statements is a courtesy of Robert Haas. This
uses psql's \bind metacommand, hence this part is backpatched down to
v16.

When pg_dump retrieves the list of database objects and performs the
data dump, there was possibility that objects are replaced with others
of the same name, such as views, and access them. This vulnerability
could result in code execution with superuser privileges during the
pg_dump process.
This issue can arise when dumping data of sequences, foreign
tables (only 13 or later), or tables registered with a WHERE clause in
the extension configuration table.
To address this, pg_dump now utilizes the newly introduced
restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind GUC parameter to restrict the
accesses to non-system views and foreign tables during the dump
process. This new GUC parameter is added to back branches too, but
these changes do not require cluster recreation.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

After further review, we want to move in the direction of always
quoting GUC names in error messages, rather than the previous (PG16)
wildly mixed practice or the intermittent (mid-PG17) idea of doing
this depending on how possibly confusing the GUC name is.
This commit applies appropriate quotes to (almost?) all mentions of
GUC names in error messages. It partially supersedes a243569bf65 and
8d9978a7176, which had moved things a bit in the opposite direction
but which then were abandoned in a partial state.

Allow pg_sync_replication_slots() to error out during promotion of standby.
This makes the behavior of the SQL function consistent with the slot sync
worker. We also ensured that pg_sync_replication_slots() cannot be
executed if sync_replication_slots is enabled and the slotsync worker is
already running to perform the synchronization of slots. Previously, it
would have succeeded in cases when the worker is idle and failed when it
is performing sync which could confuse users.
This patch fixes another issue in the slot sync worker where
SignalHandlerForShutdownRequest() needs to be registered *before* setting
SlotSyncCtx->pid, otherwise, the slotsync worker could miss handling
SIGINT sent by the startup process(ShutDownSlotSync) if it is sent before
worker could register SignalHandlerForShutdownRequest(). To be consistent,
all signal handlers' registration is moved to a prior location before we
set the worker's pid.
Ensure that we clean up synced temp slots at the end of
pg_sync_replication_slots() to avoid such slots being left over after
promotion.
Ensure that ShutDownSlotSync() captures SlotSyncCtx->pid under spinlock to
avoid accessing invalid value as it can be reset by concurrent slot sync
exit due to an error.

This changes nodeToString() to not output the actual value of location
fields in nodes, but instead it writes -1. This mirrors the fact that
stringToNode() also does not read location field values but always
stores -1.
For most uses of nodeToString(), which is to store nodes in catalog
fields, this is more useful. We don't store original query texts in
catalogs, so any lingering query location values are not meaningful.
For debugging purposes, there is a new nodeToStringWithLocations(),
which mirrors the existing stringToNodeWithLocations(). This is used
for WRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES and nodes/print.c functions, which
covers all the debugging uses.

Presently, we rely on each individual signal handler to save the
initial value of errno and then restore it before returning if
needed. This is easily forgotten and, if missed, often goes
undetected for a long time.
In commit 3b00fdba9f, we introduced a wrapper signal handler
function that checks whether MyProcPid matches getpid(). This
commit moves the aforementioned errno restoration code from the
individual signal handlers to the new wrapper handler so that we no
longer need to worry about missing it.

As of commit eaa5808e8e, MemoryContextResetAndDeleteChildren() is
just a backwards compatibility macro for MemoryContextReset(). Now
that some time has passed, this macro seems more likely to create
confusion.
This commit removes the macro and replaces all remaining uses with
calls to MemoryContextReset(). Any third-party code that use this
macro will need to be adjusted to call MemoryContextReset()
instead. Since the two have behaved the same way since v9.5, such
adjustments won't produce any behavior changes for all
currently-supported versions of PostgreSQL.

There were various places in our codebase which conjured up a StringInfo
by manually assigning the StringInfo fields and setting the data field
to point to some existing buffer. There wasn't much consistency here as
to what fields like maxlen got set to and in one location we didn't
correctly ensure that the buffer was correctly NUL terminated at len
bytes, as per what was documented as required in stringinfo.h
Here we introduce 2 new functions to initialize StringInfos. One allows
callers to initialize a StringInfo passing along a buffer that is
already allocated by palloc. Here the StringInfo code uses this buffer
directly rather than doing any memcpying into a new allocation. Having
this as a function allows us to verify the buffer is correctly NUL
terminated. StringInfos initialized this way can be appended to and
reset just like any other normal StringInfo.
The other new initialization function also accepts an existing buffer,
but the given buffer does not need to be a pointer to a palloc'd chunk.
This buffer could be a pointer pointing partway into some palloc'd chunk
or may not even be palloc'd at all. StringInfos initialized this way
are deemed as "read-only". This means that it's not possible to
append to them or reset them.
For the latter of the two new initialization functions mentioned above,
we relax the requirement that the data buffer must be NUL terminated.
Relaxing this requirement is convenient in a few places as it can save
us from having to allocate an entire new buffer just to add the NUL
terminator or save us from having to temporarily add a NUL only to have to
put the original char back again later.
Incompatibility note:
Here we also forego adding the NUL in a few places where it does not
seem to be required. These locations are passing the given StringInfo
into a type's receive function. It does not seem like any of our
built-in receive functions require this, but perhaps there's some UDT
out there in the wild which does require this. It is likely worthy of
a mention in the release notes that a UDT's receive function mustn't rely
on the input StringInfo being NUL terminated.

check purposes as well as for some personalization of environment. Usage
details are described in the documentation included, but shortly usage is

then create event trigger on login event.
In order to prevent the connection time overhead when there are no triggers
the commit introduces pg_database.dathasloginevt flag, which indicates database

We shouldn't be doing non-trivial work in signal handlers in general,
and in this case the handler could reach unsafe code and corrupt state.
It also clobbered its own "reason" code.
Move all recovery conflict decision logic into the next
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(), and have the signal handler just set flags and
the latch, following the standard pattern. Since there are several
different "reasons", use a separate flag for each.
With this refactoring, the recovery conflict system no longer
piggy-backs on top of the regular query cancelation mechanism, but
instead raises an error directly if it decides that is necessary. It
still needs to respect QueryCancelHoldoffCount, because otherwise the
FEBE protocol might get out of sync (see commit 2b3a8b20c2d).
This fixes one class of intermittent failure in the new
031_recovery_conflict.pl test added by commit 9f8a050f, though the buggy
coding is much older. Failures outside contrived testing seem to be
very rare (or perhaps incorrectly attributed) in the field, based on
lack of reports.
No back-patch for now due to complexity and release schedule. We have
the option to back-patch into 16 later, as 16 has prerequisite commit
bea3d7e.

Since PostgresMain calls sigsetjmp, any local variables that are not
marked "volatile" have a risk of unspecified behavior. In practice
this means that when control returns via longjmp, such variables might
get reset to their values as of the time of sigsetjmp, depending on
whether the compiler chose to put them in registers or on the stack.
We were careful about this for "send_ready_for_query", but not the
other local variables.
In the case of the timeout_enabled flags, resetting them to
their initial "false" states is actually good, since we do
"disable_all_timeouts()" in the longjmp cleanup code path. If that
does not happen, we risk uselessly calling "disable_timeout()" later,
which is harmless but a little bit expensive. Let's explicitly reset
these flags so that the behavior is correct and platform-independent.
(This change means that we really don't need the new "volatile"
markings after all, but let's install them anyway since any change
in this logic could re-introduce a problem.)
There is no issue for "firstchar" and "input_message" because those
are explicitly reinitialized each time through the query processing
loop. To make that clearer, move them to be declared inside the loop.
That leaves us with all the function-lifespan locals except the
sigjmp_buf itself marked as volatile, which seems like a good policy
to have going forward.
Because of the possibility of extra disable_timeout() calls, this
seems worth back-patching.

The setting of the process title could be seen on profiles of very
fast-to-execute queries. In many locations where we call
set_ps_display() we pass along a string constant, the length of which is
known during compilation. Here we effectively rename set_ps_display() to
set_ps_display_with_len() and then add a static inline function named
set_ps_display() which calls strlen() on the given string. This allows
the compiler to optimize away the strlen() call when dealing with
call sites passing a string constant. We can then also use memcpy()
instead of strlcpy() to copy the string into the destination buffer.
That's significantly faster than strlcpy's byte-at-a-time way of
copying.
Here we also take measures to improve some code which was adjusting the
process title to add a " waiting" suffix to it. Call sites which require
this can now just call set_ps_display_suffix() to add or adjust the suffix
and call set_ps_display_remove_suffix() to remove it again.

In the 90s we needed to deal with computers that still had the
pre-standard signal masking APIs. That hasn't been relevant for a very
long time on Unix systems, and c94ae9d8 got rid of a remaining
dependency in our Windows porting code. PG_SETMASK didn't expose
save/restore functionality, so we'd already started using sigprocmask()
directly in places, creating the visual distraction of having two ways
to spell it. It's not part of the API that extensions are expected to
be using (but if they are, the change will be trivial). It seems like a
good time to drop the old macro and just call the standard POSIX

don't want other backends setting its latch directly, but that could
probably be made to work with more research on robustness.)
* The existing signal handlers are cut in two: a handle_pm_XXX() part
that just sets pending_pm_XXX flags and the latch, and a
process_pm_XXX() part that runs later when the latch is seen.
* Signal handlers are now installed with the regular pqsignal()
function rather than the special pqsignal_pm() function; historical
portability concerns about the effect of SA_RESTART on select() are no
longer relevant, and we don't need to block signals anymore.

Currently, for large transactions, the publisher sends the data in
multiple streams (changes divided into chunks depending upon
logical_decoding_work_mem), and then on the subscriber-side, the apply
worker writes the changes into temporary files and once it receives the
commit, it reads from those files and applies the entire transaction. To
improve the performance of such transactions, we can instead allow them to
be applied via parallel workers.
In this approach, we assign a new parallel apply worker (if available) as
soon as the xact's first stream is received and the leader apply worker
will send changes to this new worker via shared memory. The parallel apply
worker will directly apply the change instead of writing it to temporary
files. However, if the leader apply worker times out while attempting to
send a message to the parallel apply worker, it will switch to
"partial serialize" mode - in this mode, the leader serializes all
remaining changes to a file and notifies the parallel apply workers to
read and apply them at the end of the transaction. We use a non-blocking
way to send the messages from the leader apply worker to the parallel
apply to avoid deadlocks. We keep this parallel apply assigned till the
transaction commit is received and also wait for the worker to finish at
commit. This preserves commit ordering and avoid writing to and reading
from files in most cases. We still need to spill if there is no worker
available.
This patch also extends the SUBSCRIPTION 'streaming' parameter so that the
user can control whether to apply the streaming transaction in a parallel
apply worker or spill the change to disk. The user can set the streaming
parameter to 'on/off', or 'parallel'. The parameter value 'parallel' means
the streaming will be applied via a parallel apply worker, if available.
The parameter value 'on' means the streaming transaction will be spilled
to disk. The default value is 'off' (same as current behaviour).
In addition, the patch extends the logical replication STREAM_ABORT
message so that abort_lsn and abort_time can also be sent which can be
used to update the replication origin in parallel apply worker when the
streaming transaction is aborted. Because this message extension is needed
to support parallel streaming, parallel streaming is not supported for
publications on servers < PG16.

Backpatch-through: 11

Commits f92944137 et al. made IsInTransactionBlock() set the
XACT_FLAGS_NEEDIMMEDIATECOMMIT flag before returning "false",
on the grounds that that kept its API promises equivalent to those of
PreventInTransactionBlock(). This turns out to be a bad idea though,
because it allows an ANALYZE in a pipelined series of commands to
cause an immediate commit, which is unexpected.
Furthermore, if we return "false" then we have another issue,
which is that ANALYZE will decide it's allowed to do internal
commit-and-start-transaction sequences, thus possibly unexpectedly
committing the effects of previous commands in the pipeline.
To fix the latter situation, invent another transaction state flag
XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING, which explicitly records the fact that we
have executed some extended-protocol command and not yet seen a
commit for it. Then, require that flag to not be set before allowing
InTransactionBlock() to return "false".
Having done that, we can remove its setting of NEEDIMMEDIATECOMMIT
without fear of causing problems. This means that the API guarantees
of IsInTransactionBlock now diverge from PreventInTransactionBlock,
which is mildly annoying, but it seems OK given the very limited usage
of IsInTransactionBlock. (In any case, a caller preferring the old
behavior could always set NEEDIMMEDIATECOMMIT for itself.)
For consistency also require XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING to not be set
in PreventInTransactionBlock. This too is meant to prevent commands
such as CREATE DATABASE from silently committing previous commands
in a pipeline.
Per report from Peter Eisentraut. As before, back-patch to all
supported branches (which sadly no longer includes v10).

Order the letters in the arguments of getopt() and getopt_long(), as

The only real argument for using malloc directly was that we needed
the ability to not throw error on OOM; but mcxt.c grew that feature
awhile ago.
Keeping the data in a memory context improves accountability and
debuggability --- for example, without this it's almost impossible
to detect memory leaks in the GUC code with anything less costly
than valgrind. Moreover, the next patch in this series will add a
hash table for GUC lookup, and it'd be pretty silly to be using
palloc-dependent hash facilities alongside malloc'd storage of the
underlying data.
This is a bit invasive though, in particular causing an API break
for GUC check hooks that want to modify the GUC's value or use an
"extra" data structure. They must now use guc_malloc() and
guc_free() instead of malloc() and free(). Failure to change
affected code will result in assertion failures or worse; but
thanks to recent effort in the mcxt infrastructure, it shouldn't
be too hard to diagnose such oversights (at least in assert-enabled
builds).
One note is that this changes ParseLongOption() to return short-lived
palloc'd not malloc'd data. There wasn't any caller for which the
previous definition was better.

guc.c has grown to be one of our largest .c files, making it
a bottleneck for compilation. It's also acquired a bunch of
knowledge that'd be better kept elsewhere, because of our not
very good habit of putting variable-specific check hooks here.
Hence, split it up along these lines:
* guc.c itself retains just the core GUC housekeeping mechanisms.
* New file guc_funcs.c contains the SET/SHOW interfaces and some
SQL-accessible functions for GUC manipulation.
* New file guc_tables.c contains the data arrays that define the
built-in GUC variables, along with some already-exported constant
tables.
* GUC check/assign/show hook functions are moved to the variable's
home module, whenever that's clearly identifiable. A few hard-
to-classify hooks ended up in commands/variable.c, which was
already a home for miscellaneous GUC hook functions.
To avoid cluttering a lot more header files with #include "guc.h",
I also invented a new header file utils/guc_hooks.h and put all
the GUC hook functions' declarations there, regardless of their
originating module. That allowed removal of #include "guc.h"
from some existing headers. The fallout from that (hopefully
all caught here) demonstrates clearly why such inclusions are
best minimized: there are a lot of files that, for example,
were getting array.h at two or more levels of remove, despite
not having any connection at all to GUCs in themselves.
There is some very minor code beautification here, such as
renaming a couple of inconsistently-named hook functions
and improving some comments. But mostly this just moves
code from point A to point B and deals with the ensuing
needs for #include adjustments and exporting a few functions
that previously weren't exported.
Patch by me, per a suggestion from Andres Freund; thanks also
to Michael Paquier for the idea to invent guc_funcs.c.

getrlimit() is in SUSv2 and all targeted systems have it.
Windows doesn't have it. We could just use #ifndef WIN32, but for a
little more explanation about why we're making things conditional, let's
retain the HAVE_GETRLIMIT macro. It's defined in port.h for Unix systems.
On systems that have it, it's not necessary to test for RLIMIT_CORE,
RLIMIT_STACK or RLIMIT_NOFILE macros, since SUSv2 requires those and all
targeted systems have them. Also remove references to a pre-historic
alternative spelling of RLIMIT_NOFILE, and coding that seemed to believe
that Cygwin didn't have it.

We have a few commands that "can't run in a transaction block",
meaning that if they complete their processing but then we fail
to COMMIT, we'll be left with inconsistent on-disk state.
However, the existing defenses for this are only watertight for
simple query protocol. In extended protocol, we didn't commit
until receiving a Sync message. Since the client is allowed to
issue another command instead of Sync, we're in trouble if that
command fails or is an explicit ROLLBACK. In any case, sitting
in an inconsistent state while waiting for a client message
that might not come seems pretty risky.
This case wasn't reachable via libpq before we introduced pipeline
mode, but it's always been an intended aspect of extended query
protocol, and likely there are other clients that could reach it
before.
To fix, set a flag in PreventInTransactionBlock that tells
exec_execute_message to force an immediate commit. This seems
to be the approach that does least damage to existing working
cases while still preventing the undesirable outcomes.
While here, add some documentation to protocol.sgml that explicitly
says how to use pipelining. That's latent in the existing docs if
you know what to look for, but it's better to spell it out; and it
provides a place to document this new behavior.
Per bug #17434 from Yugo Nagata. It's been wrong for ages,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

Previously we did this after InitPostgres, at a somewhat randomly chosen
place within PostgresMain. However, since commit a0ffa885e doing this
outside a transaction can cause a crash, if we need to check permissions
while replacing a placeholder GUC. (Besides which, a preloaded library
could itself want to do database access within _PG_init.)
To avoid needing an additional transaction start/end in every session,
move the process_session_preload_libraries call to within InitPostgres's
transaction. That requires teaching the code not to call it when
InitPostgres is called from somewhere other than PostgresMain, since
we don't want session_preload_libraries to affect background workers.
The most future-proof solution here seems to be to add an additional
flag parameter to InitPostgres; fortunately, we're not yet very worried
about API stability for v15.
Doing this also exposed the fact that we're currently honoring
session_preload_libraries in walsenders, even those not connected to
any database. This seems, at minimum, a POLA violation: walsenders
are not interactive sessions. Let's stop doing that.
(All these comments also apply to local_preload_libraries, of course.)
Per report from Gurjeet Singh (thanks also to Nathan Bossart and Kyotaro
Horiguchi for review). Backpatch to v15 where a0ffa885e came in.
