errfinish() assumes that the __FUNC__ and __FILE__ arguments it's
passed are compile-time constant strings that can just be pointed
to rather than physically copied. However, it's possible for LLVM
to generate code in which those pointers point into a dynamically
loaded code segment. If that segment gets unloaded before we're
done with the ErrorData struct, we have dangling pointers that
will lead to SIGSEGV. In simple cases that won't happen, because we
won't unload LLVM code before end of transaction. But it's possible
to happen if the error is thrown within end-of-transaction code run by
_SPI_commit or _SPI_rollback, because since commit 2e517818f those
functions clean up by ending the transaction and starting a new one.
Rather than fixing this by adding pstrdup() overhead to every
elog/ereport sequence, let's fix it by copying the risky pointers
in CopyErrorData(). That solves it for _SPI_commit/_SPI_rollback
because they use that function to preserve the error data across
the transaction end/restart sequence; and it seems likely that
any other code doing something similar would need to do that too.
I'm suspicious that this behavior amounts to an LLVM bug (or a
bug in our use of it?), because it implies that string constant
references that should be pointer-equal according to a naive
understanding of C semantics will sometimes not be equal.
However, even if it is a bug and someday gets fixed, we'll have
to cope with the current behavior for a long time to come.

We did not recover the subtransaction IDs of prepared transactions
when starting a hot standby from a shutdown checkpoint. As a result,
such subtransactions were considered as aborted, rather than
in-progress. That would lead to hint bits being set incorrectly, and
the subtransactions suddenly becoming visible to old snapshots when
the prepared transaction was committed.
To fix, update pg_subtrans with prepared transactions's subxids when
starting hot standby from a shutdown checkpoint. The snapshots taken
from that state need to be marked as "suboverflowed", so that we also
check the pg_subtrans.
Backport to all supported versions.

This went unnoticed, because only a few existing callers of

Backport the new BackgroundPsql modules and the constructor functions,
background_psql() and interactive_psql, to all supported

BackgroundPsql was introduced in version 16. On version 16, this
commit backports just the new timeout argument from master (commit
334f512f45). On older branches, the whole facility. This includes the
change to `use warnings FATAL => 'all'`, which we haven't otherwise
backported, but it seems good to keep the file identical across
branches.

1. TruncateMultiXact() performs the SLRU truncations in a critical
section. Deleting the SLRU segments calls ForwardSyncRequest(), which
will try to compact the request queue if it's full
(CompactCheckpointerRequestQueue()). That in turn allocates memory,
which is not allowed in a critical section. Backtrace:

To fix, bail out in CompactCheckpointerRequestQueue() without doing
anything, if it's called in a critical section. That covers the above
call path, as well as any other similar cases where
RegisterSyncRequest might be called in a critical section.
2. After fixing that, another problem became apparent: Autovacuum
process doing that truncation can deadlock with the checkpointer
process. TruncateMultiXact() sets "MyProc->delayChkptFlags |=
DELAY_CHKPT_START". If the sync request queue is full and cannot be
compacted, the process will repeatedly sleep and retry, until there is
room in the queue. However, if the checkpointer is trying to start a
checkpoint at the same time, and is waiting for the DELAY_CHKPT_START
processes to finish, the queue will never shrink.
More concretely, the autovacuum process is stuck here:

Commit 4c1532763a removed some redundant uses of 'use 5.008001;' in perl
scripts, including in plperl's plc_perlboot.pl. Because it made other
changes it wasn't backpatched. However, now this is causing a failure on
back branches when built with bleeding edge perl. Therefore, backpatch
just that part of it which removed those uses, from 15 all the way down
to 9.2, which is the earliest version currently built in the buildfarm.

When detaching partition in concurrent mode, it's possible for partition
descriptors to not match the set that was recently seen when the plan
was made, causing an assertion failure or (in production builds) failure
to construct a working plan. The case that was reported involves
prepared statements, but I think it may be possible to hit this bug
without that too.
The problem is that CreatePartitionPruneState is constructing a
PartitionPruneState under the assumption that new partitions can be
added, but never removed, but it turns out that this isn't true: a
prepared statement gets replanned when the DETACH CONCURRENTLY session
sends out its invalidation message, but if the invalidation message
arrives after ExecInitAppend started, we would build a partition
descriptor without the partition, and then CreatePartitionPruneState
would refuse to work with it.
CreatePartitionPruneState already contains code to deal with the new
descriptor having more partitions than before (and behaving for the
extra partitions as if they had been pruned), but doesn't have code to
deal with less partitions than before, and it is naïve about the case
where the number of partitions is the same. We could simply add that a
new stanza for less partitions than before, and in simple testing it
works to do that; but it's possible to press the test scripts even
further and hit the case where one partition is added and a partition is
removed quickly enough that we see the same number of partitions, but
they don't actually match, causing hangs during execution.
To cope with both these problems, we now memcmp() the arrays of
partition OIDs, and do a more elaborate mapping (relying on the fact
that both OID arrays are in partition-bounds order) if they're not
identical.

afterTriggerInvokeEvents and AfterTriggerExecute have always
treated it as an error if the trigger OID mentioned in a queued
after-trigger event can't be found. However, that fails to
account for the edge case where the trigger's been dropped in
the current transaction since queueing the event. There seems
no very good reason to disallow that case, so instead silently
do nothing if the trigger OID can't be found.
This does give up a little bit of bug-detection ability, but I don't
recall that these error messages have ever actually revealed a bug,
so it seems mostly theoretical. Alternatives such as marking
pending events DONE at the time of dropping a trigger would be
complicated and perhaps introduce bugs of their own.

In cost_memoize_rescan(), when calculating the hit_ratio using the calls
and ndistinct estimations, if the value that was set in
MemoizePath.calls had not been processed through clamp_row_est(), then it
was possible that it was set to some non-integer value which could result
in ndistinct being 1 higher than calls due to estimate_num_groups()
performing clamp_row_est() on its input_rows. This could result in
hit_ratio values slightly below 0.0, which would cause an Assert failure.
The value of MemoizePath.calls comes from the final parameter in the
create_memoize_path() function, of which we only have one true caller of.
That caller passes outer_path->rows. All the core code I looked at
always seems to call clamp_row_est() on the Path.rows, so there might
have been no issues with any core Paths causing troubles here. The bug
report was about a CustomPath with a non-clamped row estimated.
The misbehavior as a result of this seems to be mostly limited to the
Assert() failing. Aside from that, it seems the Memoize costs would
just come out slightly higher than they should have, which is likely
fairly harmless.

Reconstruction of an SP-GiST index by REINDEX CONCURRENTLY may
insert some REDIRECT tuples. This will typically happen in
a transaction that lacks an XID, which leads either to assertion
failure in spgFormDeadTuple or to insertion of a REDIRECT tuple
with zero xid. The latter's not good either, since eventually
VACUUM will apply GlobalVisTestIsRemovableXid() to the zero xid,
resulting in either an assertion failure or a garbage answer.
In practice, since REINDEX CONCURRENTLY locks out index scans
till it's done, it doesn't matter whether it inserts REDIRECTs
or PLACEHOLDERs; and likewise it doesn't matter how soon VACUUM
reduces such a REDIRECT to a PLACEHOLDER. So in non-assert builds
there's no observable problem here, other than perhaps a little
index bloat. But it's not behaving as intended.
To fix, remove the failing Assert in spgFormDeadTuple, acknowledging
that we might sometimes insert a zero XID; and guard VACUUM's
GlobalVisTestIsRemovableXid() call with a test for valid XID,
ensuring that we'll reduce such a REDIRECT the first time VACUUM
sees it. (Versions before v14 use TransactionIdPrecedes here,
which won't fail on zero xid, so they really have no bug at all
in non-assert builds.)
Another solution could be to not create REDIRECTs at all during
REINDEX CONCURRENTLY, making the relevant code paths treat that
case like index build (which likewise knows that no concurrent
index scans can be happening). That would allow restoring the
Assert in spgFormDeadTuple, but we'd still need the VACUUM change
because redirection tuples with zero xid may be out there already.
But there doesn't seem to be a nice way for spginsert() to tell that
it's being called in REINDEX CONCURRENTLY without some API changes,
so we'll leave that as a possible future improvement.
In HEAD, also rename the SpGistState.myXid field to redirectXid,
which seems less misleading (since it might not in fact be our
transaction's XID) and is certainly less uninformatively generic.

DeleteInitPrivs did not get the memo about how, when dropping a
whole object (with subid == 0), you should drop entries relating
to its sub-objects too. This is visible in the test_pg_dump test
case if one drops the extension at the end: the entry for
GRANT SELECT(col1) ON regress_pg_dump_table TO public;
was still present in pg_init_privs afterwards, although it was
pointing to a dangling table OID.
Noted while fooling with a fix for REASSIGN OWNED for pg_init_privs

though, and there seems no reason not to back-patch the fix.

The manual says clearly that punctuation in the input of
websearch_to_tsquery() is ignored, except for the special cases
of dashes and quotes. However, this failed for cases like
"(foo bar) or something", or in general an ISOPERATOR character
in front of the "or". We'd switch back to WAITOPERAND state,
then ignore the operator character while remaining in that state,
and then reach the "or" in WAITOPERAND state which (intentionally)
makes us treat it as data.
The fix is simple enough: if we see an ISOPERATOR character while in
WAITOPERATOR state, we have to skip it while staying in that state.
(We don't need to worry about other punctuation characters: those will
be consumed as though they were words, but then rejected by lexizing.)
In v14 and up (since commit eb086056f) we can simplify the code a bit
more too, because there is no longer a reason for the WAITOPERAND
state to distinguish between quoted and unquoted operands.

The previous coding here assumed that we didn't need to recheck any
of the querytree tests made in exec_simple_check_plan(). I think
we supposed that those properties were fully determined by the
syntax of the source text and hence couldn't change. That is true
for most of them, but at least hasTargetSRFs and hasAggs can change
by dint of forcibly dropping an originally-referenced function and
recreating it with new properties. That leads to "unexpected plan
node type" or similar failures.
These tests are pretty cheap compared to the cost of replanning, so
rather than sweat over exactly which properties need to be rechecked,
let's just recheck them all. Hence, factor out those tests into a new
function exec_is_simple_query(), and rearrange callers as needed.
A second problem in the same area was that if we failed during
replanning or during exec_save_simple_expr(), we'd potentially
leave behind now-dangling pointers to the old simple expression,
potentially resulting in crashes later. To fix, clear those pointers
before replanning.
The v12 code looks quite different in this area but still has the
bug about needing to recheck query simplicity. I chose to back-patch
all of the plpgsql_simple.sql test script, which formerly didn't exist
in this branch.

When a partition is being detached in concurrent mode, it is possible
for find_inheritance_children_extended() to return that partition in the
list, and immediately after that receive an invalidation message that
sets its relpartbound to NULL just before we read it. (This can happen
because table_open() reads invalidation messages.) Currently we raise
an error
ERROR: missing relpartbound for relation %u
about the situation, but that's bogus because the table is no longer a
partition, so we shouldn't be complaining about it. A better reaction
is to retry the find_inheritance_children_extended call to get a new
list, which will no longer have the partition being detached.

Normally this case isn't even reachable by non-superusers, since
permissions checks prevent naming such a table. However, it is
possible to make it happen by altering a parent table whose child
is another session's temp table.
We definitely can't support any such ALTER that requires modifying
the contents of such a table, since we lack access to the other
session's temporary-buffer pool. But there seems no good reason
to allow it even if it'd only require changing catalog contents.
One reason not to allow it is that we'd rather not expose the
implementation-dependent behavior of whether a specific ALTER
requires touching the table contents. Another is that there may
be (in future, even if not today) optimizations that assume that
a session's own temp tables won't be modified by other sessions.
Hence, add a RELATION_IS_OTHER_TEMP() check to all the places
where ALTER TABLE currently does CheckTableNotInUse(). (I looked
through all other callers of CheckTableNotInUse(), and they seem
OK already.)

If the CALL is within an atomic context (e.g. there's an outer
transaction block), _SPI_execute_plan should acquire a fresh snapshot
to execute any such functions with. We failed to do that and instead
passed them the Portal snapshot, which had been acquired at the start
of the current SQL command. This'd lead to seeing stale values of
rows modified since the start of the command.
This is arguably a bug in 84f5c2908: I failed to see that "are we in
non-atomic mode" needs to be defined the same way as it is further
down in _SPI_execute_plan, i.e. check !_SPI_current->atomic not just
options->allow_nonatomic. Alternatively the blame could be laid on
plpgsql, which is unconditionally passing allow_nonatomic = true
for CALL/DO even when it knows it's in an atomic context. However,
fixing it in spi.c seems like a better idea since that will also fix
the problem for any extensions that may have copied plpgsql's coding
pattern.
While here, update an obsolete comment about _SPI_execute_plan's

Before the v13-era commit 913bbd88d, check_sql_fn_retval fails to
resolve polymorphic output types and then just throws up its hands and
assumes the check will be made at runtime. I think that's true for
ordinary functions returning RECORD, but it doesn't happen in CALL,
potentially resulting in crashes if the actual output of the SQL
procedure's SELECT doesn't match the type inferred from polymorphism.
With a little bit of rearrangement, we can use get_call_result_type
instead of get_func_result_type and thereby infer the correct types.
I'm still unwilling to back-patch all of 913bbd88d, so if the types
don't match you'll get an error rather than perhaps silently inserting
a cast as v13 and later can. That's consistent with prior behavior
though, so it seems fine.
Prior to 70ffb27b2, you'd typically get other errors due to other
shortcomings of CALL's management of polymorphism. Nonetheless,
this is an independent bug.
Although there is no bug in v13 and up, it seems prudent to add
the test case for this to the newer branches too. It's clearly
an under-tested area.

In a procedure or function returning tuple, we use that function to
parse the Tcl script's result, which is supposed to be a Tcl list.
If it isn't, you get an error. Commit 26abb50c4 incautiously
supposed that we could use throw_tcl_error() to report such an error.
That doesn't actually work, because low-level functions like
Tcl_ListObjGetElements() don't fill Tcl's errorInfo variable.
The result is either a null-pointer-dereference crash or emission

Coverity complains that ECPGdebug is accessing debugstream without
holding debug_mutex, which is a fair complaint: we should take
debug_mutex while changing the settings ecpg_log looks at.
In some branches it also complains about unlocked use of simple_debug.
I think it's intentional and safe to have a quick unlocked check of
simple_debug at the start of ecpg_log, since that early exit will
always be taken in non-debug cases. But we should recheck
simple_debug after acquiring the mutex. In the worst case, calling
ECPGdebug concurrently with ecpg_log in another thread could result
in a null-pointer dereference due to debugstream transiently being
NULL while simple_debug isn't 0.
This is largely hypothetical, since it's unlikely anybody uses
ECPGdebug() at all in the field, and our own regression tests
don't seem to be hitting the theoretical race conditions either.
Still, if we're going to the trouble of having mutexes here, we ought
to be using them in a way that's actually safe not just almost safe.
Hence, back-patch to all supported branches.

transformTableLikeClause believed that it could process extended
statistics immediately because "the representation of CreateStatsStmt
doesn't depend on column numbers". That was true when extended stats
were first introduced, but it was falsified by the addition of
extended stats on expressions: the parsed expression tree is fed
forward by the LIKE option, and that will contain Vars. So if the
new table doesn't have attnums identical to the old one's (typically
because there are some dropped columns in the old one), that doesn't
work. The CREATE goes through, but it emits invalid statistics
objects that will cause problems later.
Fortunately, we already have logic that can adapt expression trees
to the possibly-new column numbering. To use it, we have to delay
processing of CREATE_TABLE_LIKE_STATISTICS into expandTableLikeClause,
just as for other LIKE options that involve expressions.
Per bug #18468 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v14 where
extended statistics on expressions were added.

We are capable of optimizing MIN() and MAX() aggregates on indexed
columns into subqueries that exploit the index, rather than the normal
thing of scanning the whole table. When we do this, we replace the
Aggref node(s) with Params referencing subquery outputs. Such Params
really ought to be included in the per-plan-node extParam/allParam
sets computed by SS_finalize_plan. However, we've never done so
up to now because of an ancient implementation choice to perform
that substitution during set_plan_references, which runs after
SS_finalize_plan, so that SS_finalize_plan never sees these Params.
The cleanest fix would be to perform a separate tree walk to do
these substitutions before SS_finalize_plan runs. That seems
unattractive, first because a whole-tree mutation pass is expensive,
and second because we lack infrastructure for visiting expression
subtrees in a Plan tree, so that we'd need a new function knowing
as much as SS_finalize_plan knows about that. I also considered
swapping the order of SS_finalize_plan and set_plan_references,
but that fell foul of various assumptions that seem tricky to fix.
So the approach adopted here is to teach SS_finalize_plan itself
to check for such Aggrefs. I refactored things a bit in setrefs.c
to avoid having three copies of the code that does that.

Most of the infrastructure for procedure arguments was already
okay with polymorphic output arguments, but it turns out that
CallStmtResultDesc() was a few bricks shy of a load here. It thought
all it needed to do was call build_function_result_tupdesc_t, but
that function specifically disclaims responsibility for resolving
polymorphic arguments. Failing to handle that doesn't seem to be
a problem for CALL in plpgsql, but CALL from plain SQL would get
errors like "cannot display a value of type anyelement", or even
crash outright.
In v14 and later we can simply examine the exposed types of the
CallStmt.outargs nodes to get the right type OIDs. But it's a lot
more complicated to fix in v12/v13, because those versions don't
have CallStmt.outargs, nor do they do expand_function_arguments
until ExecuteCallStmt runs. We have to duplicatively run
expand_function_arguments, and then re-determine which elements
of the args list are output arguments.

Presently, when this function is called for an unlogged sequence on
a standby server, it will error out with a message like
ERROR: could not open file "base/5/16388": No such file or directory
Since the pg_sequences system view uses pg_sequence_last_value(),
it can error similarly. To fix, modify the function to return NULL
for unlogged sequences on standby servers. Since this bug is
present on all versions since v15, this approach is preferable to
making the ERROR nicer because we need to repair the pg_sequences
view without modifying its definition on released versions. For
consistency, this commit also modifies the function to return NULL
for other sessions' temporary sequences. The pg_sequences view
already appropriately filters out such sequences, so there's no bug
there, but we might as well offer some defense in case someone
invokes this function directly.
Unlogged sequences were first introduced in v15, but temporary
sequences are much older, so while the fix for unlogged sequences
is only back-patched to v15, the temporary sequence portion is
back-patched to all supported versions.
We could also remove the privilege check in the pg_sequences view
definition in v18 if we modify this function to return NULL for
sequences for which the current user lacks privileges, but that is
left as a future exercise for when v18 development begins.

If we recursed to a new call of the same function, with a different
coldeflist (AS clause), it would fail because the inner call would
overwrite the outer call's idea of what to return. This is vaguely
like 1d2fe56e4 and c5bec5426, but it's not due to any API decisions:
it's just that we computed the actual output rowtype at the start of
the call, and saved it in the per-procedure data structure. We can
fix it at basically zero cost by doing the computation at the end
of each call instead of the start.
It's not clear that there's any real-world use-case for such a
function, but given that it doesn't cost anything to fix,
it'd be silly not to.

json_lex_string() relies on pg_encoding_mblen_bounded() to point to the
end of a JSON string when generating an error message, and the input it
uses is not guaranteed to be null-terminated.
It was possible to walk off the end of the input buffer by a few bytes
when the last bytes consist of an incomplete multi-byte sequence, as
token_terminator would point to a location defined by
pg_encoding_mblen_bounded() rather than the end of the input. This
commit switches token_terminator so as the error uses data up to the
end of the JSON input.
More work should be done so as this code could rely on an equivalent of
report_invalid_encoding() so as incorrect byte sequences can show in
error messages in a readable form. This requires work for at least two
cases in the JSON parsing API: an incomplete token and an invalid escape
sequence. A more complete solution may be too invasive for a backpatch,
so this is left as a future improvement, taking care of the overread
first.
A test is added on HEAD as test_json_parser makes this issue
straight-forward to check.
Note that pg_encoding_mblen_bounded() no longer has any callers. This
will be removed on HEAD with a separate commit, as this is proving to
encourage unsafe coding.

If a plpython-language trigger caused another one to be invoked,
the "TD" dictionary created for the inner one would overwrite the
outer one's "TD" dictionary. This is more or less the same problem
that 1d2fe56e4 fixed for ordinary functions in plpython, so fix it
the same way, by saving and restoring "TD" during a recursive
invocation.
This fix makes an ABI-incompatible change in struct PLySavedArgs.
I'm not too worried about that because it seems highly unlikely that
any extension is messing with those structs. We could imagine doing
something weird to preserve nominal ABI compatibility in the back
branches, like keeping the saved TD object in an extra element of
namedargs[]. However, that would only be very nominal compatibility:
if anything *is* touching PLySavedArgs, it would likely do the wrong
thing due to not knowing about the additional value. So I judge it
not worth the ugliness to do something different there.
(I also changed struct PLyProcedure, but its added field fits
into formerly-padding space, so that should be safe.)

We have long disallowed all forms of ALTER TABLE if the table is
already opened by some outer SQL command in the same session.
This has the same purpose as obtaining AccessExclusiveLock, but
since a session's own locks don't conflict the lock only blocks use
of the table by other sessions, not our own. Without this check,
the ALTER might confuse the outer SQL command since any previous
inspection of the table would potentially become invalid.
However, the RelisBecomingView code path in DefineQueryRewrite never
got that memo, and assumed that AccessExclusiveLock is sufficient
for performing something morally equivalent to a rather invasive
ALTER TABLE. Unsurprisingly, this can confuse an outer command
that is trying to do something with the table.
This was submitted as a security issue, but the security team
has been unable to identify any consequence worse than a null
pointer dereference (from trying to access rd_tableam methods
that the relation no longer has). Therefore, in accordance
with our usual policy, it's not security material and should
just be fixed as a routine bug.
Fix by disallowing the operation if the table is open locally,
exactly as ALTER TABLE does it.

ALTER COLUMN TYPE wasn't expecting to find any pg_proc objects

The code associated with EXEC SQL DEFINE was unreadable and full of
bugs, notably:
* It'd attempt to free a non-malloced string if the ecpg program
tries to redefine a macro that was defined on the command line.
* Possible memory stomp if user writes "-D=foo".
* Undef'ing or redefining a macro defined on the command line would
change the state visible to the next file, when multiple files are
specified on the command line. (While possibly that could have been
an intentional choice, the code clearly intends to revert to the
original macro state; it's just failing to consider this interaction.)
* Missing "break" in defining a new macro meant that redefinition
of an existing name would cause an extra entry to be added to the
definition list. While not immediately harmful, a subsequent undef
would result in the prior entry becoming visible again.
* The interactions with input buffering are subtle and were entirely
undocumented.
It's not that surprising that we hadn't noticed these bugs,
because there was no test coverage at all of either the -D
command line switch or multiple input files. This patch adds
such coverage (in a rather hacky way I guess).
In addition to the code bugs, the user documentation was confused
about whether the -D switch defines a C macro or an ecpg one, and
it failed to mention that you can write "-Dsymbol=value".

get_baserel_parampathinfo previously assumed without checking that
the results of generate_join_implied_equalities "necessarily satisfy
join_clause_is_movable_into". This turns out to be wrong in the
presence of outer joins, because the generated clauses could include
Vars that mustn't be evaluated below a relevant outer join. That
led to applying clauses at the wrong plan level and possibly getting
incorrect query results. We must check each clause's nullable_relids,
and really the right thing to do is test join_clause_is_movable_into.
However, trying to fix it that way exposes an oversight in
equivclass.c: it wasn't careful about marking join clauses for
appendrel children with the correct clause_relids. That caused the
modified get_baserel_parampathinfo code to reject some clauses it
still needs to accept. (See parallel commit for HEAD/v16 for more

Commit 2ed8f9a01 intended to institute a policy that if a
RangeTblFunction has a coldeflist, then the function return type is
certainly RECORD, and we should use the coldeflist as the source of
truth about what the columns of the record type are. When the
original function has been folded to a constant, inspection of the
constant might give a different answer. This situation will lead to
a tuple-type-mismatch error at execution, but up until that point we
need to consistently believe the coldeflist, or we'll have problems
from different bits of code reaching different conclusions.
expandRTE didn't get that memo though, and would try to produce a
tupdesc based on the constant in this situation, leading to an
assertion failure. (Desultory testing suggests that non-assert
builds often manage to give the expected error, although I also
saw a "cache lookup failed for type 0" error, and it seems at
least possible that a crash could happen.)
Some other callers of get_expr_result_type and get_expr_result_tupdesc
were also being incautious about this. While none of them seem to
have actual bugs, they're working harder than necessary in this case,
besides which it seems safest to have an explicit policy of not using
those functions on an RTE with a coldeflist. Adjust the code
accordingly, and add commentary to funcapi.c about this policy.
Also fix an obsolete comment that claimed "get_expr_result_type()
doesn't know how to extract type info from a RECORD constant".
That hasn't been true since commit d57534740.

GetPageWithFreeSpace() callers assume the returned block exists in the
main fork, failing with "could not read block" errors if that doesn't
hold. Make that assumption reliable now. It hadn't been guaranteed,
due to the weak WAL and data ordering of participating components. Most
operations on the fsm fork are not WAL-logged. Relation extension is
not WAL-logged. Hence, an fsm-fork block on disk can reference a
main-fork block that no WAL record has initialized. That could happen
after an OS crash, a replica promote, or a PITR restore. wal_log_hints
makes the trouble easier to hit; a replica promote or PITR ending just
after a relevant fsm-fork FPI_FOR_HINT may yield this broken state. The
v16 RelationAddBlocks() mechanism also makes the trouble easier to hit,
since it bulk-extends even without extension lock waiters. Commit
917dc7d2393ce680dea7a59418be9ff341df3c14 stopped trouble around
truncation, but vectors involving PageIsNew() pages remained.
This implementation adds a RelationGetNumberOfBlocks() call when the
cached relation size doesn't confirm a block exists. We've been unable
to identify a benchmark that slows materially, but this may show up as
additional time in lseek(). An alternative without that overhead would
be a new ReadBufferMode such that ReadBufferExtended() returns NULL
after a 0-byte read, with all other errors handled normally. However,
each GetFreeIndexPage() caller would then need code for the return-NULL
case. Back-patch to v14, due to earlier versions not caching relation
size and the absence of a pre-v16 problem report.

Up to now, read_sql_construct() has collected all the source text from
the statement or expression's initial token up to the character just
before the "until" token. It normally tries to strip trailing
whitespace from that, largely for neatness. If there was a "-- text"
comment after the expression, this resulted in removing the newline
that terminates the comment, which creates a hazard if we try to paste
the collected text into a larger SQL construct without inserting a
newline after it. In particular this caused our handling of CASE
constructs to fail if there's a comment after a WHEN expression.
Commit 4adead1d2 noticed a similar problem with cursor arguments,
and worked around it through the rather crude hack of suppressing
the whitespace-trimming behavior for those. Rather than do that
and leave the hazard open for future hackers to trip over, let's
fix it properly. pl_scanner.c already has enough infrastructure
to report the end location of the expression's last token, so
we can copy up to that location and never collect any trailing
whitespace or comment to begin with.
