This creates an initial set of default roles which administrators may
use to grant access to, historically, superuser-only functions. Using
these roles instead of granting superuser access reduces the number of
superuser roles required for a system. Documention for each of the
default roles has been added to user-manag.sgml.

This feature is controlled by a new old_snapshot_threshold GUC. A
value of -1 disables the feature, and that is the default. The
value of 0 is just intended for testing. Above that it is the
number of minutes a snapshot can reach before pruning and vacuum
are allowed to remove dead tuples which the snapshot would
otherwise protect. The xmin associated with a transaction ID does
still protect dead tuples. A connection which is using an "old"
snapshot does not get an error unless it accesses a page modified
recently enough that it might not be able to produce accurate
results.
This is similar to the Oracle feature, and we use the same SQLSTATE
and error message for compatibility.

This allows parallel aggregation to use them. It may seem surprising
that we use float8_combine for both float4_accum and float8_accum
transition functions, but that's because those functions differ only
in the type of the non-transition-state argument.

We still use replacement selection for the first run of the sort only
and only when the number of tuples is relatively small. Otherwise,
the first run, and subsequent runs in all cases, are produced using
quicksort. This tends to be faster except perhaps for very small

In cases where joins use multiple columns we currently assess each join
separately causing gross mis-estimates for join cardinality.
This patch adds use of FK information for the first time into the
planner. When FKs are present and we have multi-column join information,
plan estimates will be drastically improved. Cases with multiple FKs
are handled, though partial matches are ignored currently.
Net effect is substantial performance improvements for joins in many
common cases. Additional planning time is isolated to cases that are
currently performing poorly, measured at 0.08 - 0.15 ms.
Please watch for planner performance regressions; circumstances seem
unlikely but the law of unintended consequences may apply somewhen.
Additional complex tests welcome to prove this before release.

in pg_catalog and the ACLs for all extension members, where the ACL
has been changed from the original value which was set during either
initdb or CREATE EXTENSION.

Previously synchronous replication offered only the ability to confirm
that all changes made by a transaction had been transferred to at most
one synchronous standby server.
This commit extends synchronous replication so that it supports multiple
synchronous standby servers. It enables users to consider one or more
standby servers as synchronous, and increase the level of transaction
durability by ensuring that transaction commits wait for replies from
all of those synchronous standbys.
Multiple synchronous standby servers are configured in
synchronous_standby_names which is extended to support new syntax of
'num_sync ( standby_name [ , ... ] )', where num_sync specifies
the number of synchronous standbys that transaction commits need to
wait for replies from and standby_name is the name of a standby
server.
The syntax of 'standby_name [ , ... ]' which was used in 9.5 or before
is also still supported. It's the same as new syntax with num_sync=1.
This commit doesn't include "quorum commit" feature which was discussed
in pgsql-hackers. Synchronous standbys are chosen based on their priorities.
synchronous_standby_names determines the priority of each standby for
being chosen as a synchronous standby. The standbys whose names appear
earlier in the list are given higher priority and will be considered as
synchronous. Other standby servers appearing later in this list
represent potential synchronous standbys.
The regression test for multiple synchronous standbys is not included
in this commit. It should come later.

As noted by Julian Schauder in bug #14063, the configuration-file parser
doesn't support embedded newlines in string literals. While there might
someday be a good reason to remove that restriction, there doesn't seem
to be one right now. However, ALTER SYSTEM SET could accept strings
containing newlines, since many of the variable-specific value-checking
routines would just see a newline as whitespace. This led to writing a
postgresql.auto.conf file that was broken and had to be removed manually.
Pending a reason to work harder, just throw an error if someone tries this.
In passing, fix several places in the ALTER SYSTEM logic that failed to
provide an errcode() for an ereport(), and thus would falsely log the
failure as an internal XX000 error.
Back-patch to 9.4 where ALTER SYSTEM was introduced.

This elevel is useful for logging audit messages and similar information
that should not be passed to the client. It's equivalent to LOG in terms
of decisions about logging priority in the postmaster log, but messages
with this elevel will never be sent to the client.
In the current implementation, it's just an alias for the longstanding
COMMERROR elevel (or more accurately, we've made COMMERROR an alias for
this). At some point it might be interesting to allow a LOG_ONLY flag to
be attached to any elevel, but that would be considerably more complicated,
and it's not clear there's enough use-cases to justify the extra work.
For now, let's just take the easy 90% solution.

When adjusting the estimate for the number of distinct values from a
rel in a grouped query to take into account the selectivity of the
rel's restrictions, use a formula that is less likely to produce
under-estimates.
The old formula simply multiplied the number of distinct values in the
rel by the restriction selectivity, which would be correct if the
restrictions were fully correlated with the grouping expressions, but
can produce significant under-estimates in cases where they are not
well correlated.
The new formula is based on the random selection probability, and so
assumes that the restrictions are not correlated with the grouping
expressions. This is guaranteed to produce larger estimates, and of
course risks over-estimating in cases where the restrictions are
correlated, but that has less severe consequences than
under-estimating, which might lead to a HashAgg that consumes an
excessive amount of memory.
This could possibly be improved upon in the future by identifying
correlated restrictions and using a hybrid of the old and new
formulae.

Formerly, the geometric I/O routines such as box_in and point_out relied
directly on strtod() and sprintf() for conversion of the float8 component
values of their data types. However, the behavior of those functions is
pretty platform-dependent, especially for edge-case values such as
infinities and NaNs. This was exposed by commit acdf2a8b372aec1d, which
added test cases involving boxes with infinity endpoints, and immediately
failed on Windows and AIX buildfarm members. We solved these problems
years ago in the main float8in and float8out functions, so let's fix it
by making the geometric types use that code instead of depending directly
on the platform-supplied functions.
To do this, refactor the float8in code so that it can be used to parse
just part of a string, and as a convenience make the guts of float8out
usable without going through DirectFunctionCall.
While at it, get rid of geo_ops.c's fairly shaky assumptions about the
maximum output string length for a double, by having it build results in
StringInfo buffers instead of fixed-length strings.
In passing, convert all the "invalid input syntax for type foo" messages
in this area of the code into "invalid input syntax for type %s" to reduce
the number of distinct translatable strings, per recent discussion.
We would have needed a fair number of the latter anyway for code-sharing
reasons, so we might as well just go whole hog.
Note: this patch is by no means intended to guarantee that the geometric
types uniformly behave sanely for infinity or NaN component values.
But any bugs we have in that line were there all along, they were just
harder to reach in a platform-independent way.

My compiler doesn't like the lack of initialization of "flag", and
I think it's right: if there were zero keys we'd have an undefined
result. The AND of zero items is TRUE, so initialize to TRUE.

Patch implements quad-tree over boxes, naive approach of 2D quad tree will not
work for any non-point objects because splitting space on node is not
efficient. The idea of pathc is treating 2D boxes as 4D points, so,
object will not overlap (in 4D space).
The performance tests reveal that this technique especially beneficial
with too much overlapping objects, so called "spaghetti data".

In this mode, the master waits for the transaction to be applied on
the remote side, not just written to disk. That means that you can
count on a transaction started on the standby to see all commits
previously acknowledged by the master.
To make this work, the standby sends a reply after replaying each
commit record generated with synchronous_commit >= 'remote_apply'.
This introduces a small inefficiency: the extra replies will be sent
even by standbys that aren't the current synchronous standby. But
previously-existing synchronous_commit levels make no attempt at all
to optimize which replies are sent based on what the primary cares
about, so this is no worse, and at least avoids any extra replies for
people not using the feature at all.

interval_mul() attempts to prevent its calculations from producing silly
results, but it forgot that zero times infinity yields NaN in IEEE
arithmetic. Hence, a case like '1 second'::interval * 'infinity'::float8
produced a NaN for the months product, which didn't trigger the range
check, resulting in bogus and possibly platform-dependent output.
This isn't terribly obvious to the naked eye because if you try that
exact case, you get "interval out of range" which is what you expect
--- but if you look closer, the error is coming from interval_out not
interval_mul. interval_mul has allowed a bogus value into the system.
Fix by adding isnan tests.
Noted while testing Vitaly Burovoy's fix for infinity input to
to_timestamp(). Given the lack of field complaints, I doubt this
is worth a back-patch.

With the original SQL-function implementation, such cases failed because
we don't support infinite intervals. Converting the function to C lets

In the plancache, we check if the environment we planned the query under
has changed in a way which requires us to re-plan, such as when the user
for whom the plan was prepared changes and RLS is being used (and,
therefore, there may be different policies to apply).
Unfortunately, while those values were set and checked, they were not
being reset when the query was re-planned and therefore, in cases where
we change role, re-plan, and then change role again, we weren't
re-planning again. This leads to potentially incorrect policies being
applied in cases where role-specific policies are used and a given query
is planned under one role and then executed under other roles, which
could happen under security definer functions or when a common user and
query is planned initially and then re-used across multiple SET ROLEs.
Further, extensions which made use of CopyCachedPlan() may suffer from
similar issues as the RLS-related fields were not properly copied as
part of the plan and therefore RevalidateCachedQuery() would copy in the
current settings without invalidating the query.
Fix by using the same approach used for 'search_path', where we set the
correct values in CompleteCachedPlan(), check them early on in
RevalidateCachedQuery() and then properly reset them if re-planning.
Also, copy through the values during CopyCachedPlan().

This avoids a possible divide-by-zero in the following calculation,
and rounding the number to an integer seems like saner behavior anyway.
Assuming IEEE math, the division would yield +Infinity which would get
replaced by 1.0 at the bottom of the function, so nothing really
interesting would ensue; but avoiding divide-by-zero seems like a
good idea on general principles.

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.

Unfortunately, every version of glibc thus far tested has bugs whereby
strcoll() ordering does not match strxfrm() ordering as required by
the standard. This can result in, for example, corrupted indexes.
Disabling abbreviated keys in these cases slows down non-C-collation
string sorting considerably, but there seems to be no practical
alternative. Users who are confident that their libc implementations
are solid in this regard can re-enable the optimization by compiling
with TRUST_STRXFRM.
Users who have built indexes using PostgreSQL 9.5 or PostgreSQL 9.5.1
should REINDEX if there is a possibility that they may have been
affected by this problem.

Commit ac1d794 ("Make idle backends exit if the postmaster dies.")
introduced a regression on, at least, large linux systems. Constantly
adding the same postmaster_alive_fds to the OSs internal datastructures
for implementing poll/select can cause significant contention; leading
to a performance regression of nearly 3x in one example.
This can be avoided by using e.g. linux' epoll, which avoids having to
add/remove file descriptors to the wait datastructures at a high rate.
Unfortunately the current latch interface makes it hard to allocate any
persistent per-backend resources.
Replace, with a backward compatibility layer, WaitLatchOrSocket with a
new WaitEventSet API. Users can allocate such a Set across multiple
calls, and add more than one file-descriptor to wait on. The latter has
been added because there's upcoming postgres features where that will be
helpful.
In addition to the previously existing poll(2), select(2),
WaitForMultipleObjects() implementations also provide an epoll_wait(2)
based implementation to address the aforementioned performance
problem. Epoll is only available on linux, but that is the most likely
OS for machines large enough (four sockets) to reproduce the problem.
To actually address the aforementioned regression, create and use a
long-lived WaitEventSet for FE/BE communication. There are additional
places that would benefit from a long-lived set, but that's a task for
another day.
Thanks to Amit Kapila, who helped make the windows code I blindly wrote

The distinction between "archive" and "hot_standby" existed only because
at the time "hot_standby" was added, there was some uncertainty about
stability. This is now a long time ago. We would like to move forward
with simplifying the replication configuration, but this distinction is
in the way, because a primary server cannot tell (without asking a
standby or predicting the future) which one of these would be the
appropriate level.

covers all (non-logical) backup and replication uses. The old values
are still accepted but are converted internally.
