Similar to how the INHERIT option controls whether or not the
permissions of the granted role are automatically available to the
grantee, the new SET permission controls whether or not the grantee
may use the SET ROLE command to assume the privileges of the granted
role.
In addition, the new SET permission controls whether or not it
is possible to transfer ownership of objects to the target role
or to create new objects owned by the target role using commands
such as CREATE DATABASE .. OWNER. We could alternatively have made
this controlled by the INHERIT option, or allow it when either
option is given. An advantage of this approach is that if you
are granted a predefined role with INHERIT TRUE, SET FALSE, you
can't go and create objects owned by that role.
The underlying theory here is that the ability to create objects
as a target role is not a privilege per se, and thus does not
depend on whether you inherit the target role's privileges. However,
it's surely something you could do anyway if you could SET ROLE
to the target role, and thus making it contingent on whether you
have that ability is reasonable.

eqjoinsel() currently makes use of MCV stats only when we have such
stats for both sides of the clause. As coded, though, it would
fetch those stats even when they're present for just one side.
This can be a bit expensive with high statistics targets, leading
to wasted effort in common cases such as joining a unique column
to a non-unique column. So it seems worth the trouble to do a quick
pre-check to confirm that both sides have MCVs before fetching either.
Also, tweak the API spec for get_attstatsslot() to document the
method we're using here.

The object_address test file turns to psql unaligned output for some

This commit improves the handling of the following clauses:
- Addition of "CREATE" for ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES .. GRANT/REVOKE.
- Addition of GRANT|ADMIN|INHERIT OPTION FOR for REVOKE, with some
completion for roles, INHERIT being added recently by e3ce2de.
- Addition of GRANT WITH ADMIN|INHERIT.
The list of privilege options common to GRANT and REVOKE is refactored
to avoid its duplication.

Standardize on the name snapshotConflictHorizon for all XID fields from
WAL records that generate recovery conflicts when in hot standby mode.
This supersedes the previous latestRemovedXid naming convention.
The new naming convention places emphasis on how the values are actually
used by REDO routines. How the values are generated during original
execution (details of which vary by record type) is deemphasized. Users
of tools like pg_waldump can now grep for snapshotConflictHorizon to see
all potential sources of recovery conflicts in a standardized way,
without necessarily having to consider which specific record types might
be involved.
Also bring a couple of WAL record types that didn't follow any kind of
naming convention into line. These are heapam's VISIBLE record type and
SP-GiST's VACUUM_REDIRECT record type. Now every WAL record whose REDO
routine calls ResolveRecoveryConflictWithSnapshot() passes through the
snapshotConflictHorizon field from its WAL record. This is follow-up
work to the refactoring from commit 9e540599 that made FREEZE_PAGE WAL
records use a standard snapshotConflictHorizon style XID cutoff.
No bump in XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC, since the underlying format of affected WAL
records doesn't change.

After sending a startup message, libpq expects either an error
response ('E') or an authentication request ('R'). Before processing
the message, it ensures it has read enough bytes to correspond to the
length specified in the message. However, when processing the 'R'
message, if an EOF status is returned it loops back waiting for more
input, even though we already checked that we have enough input. In
this particular case, this is probably not reachable anyway, because
other code ensures we have enough bytes for an authentication request
message, but the code is wrong and misleading. In the more general
case, processing a faulty message could result in an EOF status, which
would then result in an infinite loop waiting for the end of a message
that will never come. The correction is to make this an error.

Commit 1cc29fe7c, which taught EXPLAIN to print PARAM_EXEC Params as
the referenced expressions, included some checks to prevent matching
Params found in SubPlans or InitPlans to NestLoopParams of upper query
levels. At the time, this seemed possibly necessary to avoid false
matches because of the planner's habit of re-using the same PARAM_EXEC
slot in multiple places in a plan. Furthermore, in the absence of
LATERAL no such reference could be valid anyway. But it's possible
now that we have LATERAL, and in the wake of 46c508fbc and 1db5667ba
I believe the false-match hazard is gone. Hence, remove the
in_same_plan_level checks. As shown in the regression test changes,
this provides a useful improvement in readability for EXPLAIN of
LATERAL-using subplans.

Implement a data structure that is a List of Bitmapsets, which is
essentially a 2-D boolean array except that the rows need not all
be the same width. Operations such as union and intersection are
meaningful for these, just as they are for Bitmapsets. Eventually
we might build many of the same operations that we have written for
Bitmapsets, but for the first use-case we just need a few.
That first use-case is for antijoin detection: reduce_outer_joins
needs to find the set of Vars that are certain to be non-null in a
successfully joined (not null-extended) left join row, and also
find the set of Vars subject to higher-level IS NULL constraints,
and intersect them. We had been doing this by making Lists of
the Var nodes and then using list_intersect, which works but is
pretty inefficient compared to a bitmapset-like intersection.
Potentially it's O(N^2) if there are a lot of Vars involved,
which fortunately there generally aren't; still it's not great.
Moreover, that method requires the Vars of interest to be exactly
equal() in the join condition and the upper IS NULL condition,
which is problematic for my WIP patch that labels Vars according
to which outer joins have possibly nulled them.

Two locations working on pg_ts_config_map are switched from
CatalogTupleInsert() to a multi-insert approach with tuple slots:
- ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION ADD/ALTER MAPPING when inserting new
entries. The number of entries to insert is known in advance, so is the
number of slots needed. Note that CatalogTupleInsertWithInfo() is now
used for the entry updates.
- CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION, where up to ~20-ish records could be
inserted at once. The number of slots is not known in advance, hence
a slot initialization is delayed until a tuple is stored in it.
Like all the changes of this kind (1ff4161, 63110c6 or e3931d01), an
insert batch is capped at 64kB.

This commit improves two code paths to open and close indexes a
minimum amount of times when doing a series of catalog updates or
inserts. CatalogTupleInsert() is costly when using it for multiple
inserts or updates compared to CatalogTupleInsertWithInfo(), as it would
need to open and close the indexes of the catalog worked each time an
operation is done.
This commit updates the following places:
- REINDEX CONCURRENTLY when copying statistics from one index relation
to the other. Multi-INSERTs are avoided here, as this would begin to
show benefits only for indexes with multiple expressions, for example,
which may not be the most common pattern. This change is noticeable in
profiles with indexes having many expressions, for example, and it would
improve any callers of CopyStatistics().
- Update of statistics on ANALYZE, that mixes inserts and updates.
In each case, the catalog indexes are opened only if at least one
insertion and/or update is required, to minimize the cost of the
operation. Like the previous coding, no indexes are opened as long as
at least one insert or update of pg_statistic has happened.

using SQL wrappers around the APIs of slru.c. This should be easily

willing to implement an external module that makes use of SLRUs (LWLock
tranche registering and SLRU initialization particularly).
As this requires a loaded library, the tests use a custom configuration

Make heapam WAL records that describe freezing performed by VACUUM more
space efficient by storing each distinct "freeze plan" once, alongside
an array of associated page offset numbers (one per freeze plan). The
freeze plans required for most heap pages tend to naturally have a great
deal of redundancy, so this technique is very effective in practice. It
often leads to freeze WAL records that are less than 20% of the size of
equivalent WAL records generated using the previous approach.
The freeze plan concept was introduced by commit 3b97e6823b, which fixed
bugs in VACUUM's handling of MultiXacts. We retain the concept of
freeze plans, but go back to using page offset number arrays. There is
no loss of generality here because deduplication is an additive process
that gets applied mechanically when FREEZE_PAGE WAL records are built.
More than anything else, freeze plan deduplication is an optimization
that reduces the marginal cost of freezing additional tuples on pages
that will need to have at least one or two tuples frozen in any case.
Ongoing work that adds page-level freezing to VACUUM will take full
advantage of the improved cost profile through batching.
Also refactor some of the details surrounding recovery conflicts needed
to REDO freeze records in passing: make original execution responsible
for generating a standard latestRemovedXid cutoff, rather than working
backwards to get the same cutoff in the REDO routine. Bugfix commit
66fbcb0d2e did it the other way around, which is equivalent but obscures
what's going on.
Also rename the cutoff field from the WAL record/struct (rename the
field cutoff_xid to latestRemovedXid to match similar WAL records).
Processing of conflicts by REDO routines is already completely uniform,
so tools like pg_waldump should present the information driving the
process uniformly. There are two remaining WAL record types that still
don't quite follow this convention (heapam's VISIBLE record type and
SP-GiST's VACUUM_REDIRECT record type). They can be brought into line
by later work that totally standardizes how the cutoffs are presented.

Some callers didn't check the return value of pclose() or

they treated it like the return of fclose().
The correct way is to first check whether the return value is -1, and
then report errno, and then check the return value like a result from
system(), for which we already have wait_result_to_str() to make it
simpler. To make this more compact, expand wait_result_to_str() to

libpq now contains a mix of error message strings that end with
newlines and don't end with newlines, due to some newer code paths
with new ways of passing errors around. This leads to confusion and
mistakes both during development and translation.
This adds new functions libpq_append_error() and
libpq_append_conn_error() that encapsulate common code paths for
producing error message strings. Notably, these functions append the
newline, so that the string appearing in the code does not end with a
newline. This makes (almost) all error message strings in libpq
uniform in this regard (and also consistent with how we handle it
outside of libpq code). (There are a few exceptions that are
difficult to fit into this scheme, but they are only a few.)

The parsing of the authentication files for HBA and ident entries
happens in two phases:
- Tokenization of the files, creating a list of TokenizedAuthLines.
- Validation of the HBA and ident entries, building a set of HbaLines or
IdentLines.
The second phase doing the validation provides already some error
context about the configuration file and the line where a problem
happens, but there is no such information in the first phase when
tokenizing the files. This commit adds an ErrorContextCallback in
tokenize_auth_file(), with a context made of the line number and the
configuration file name involved in a problem. This is useful for files
included in an HBA file for user and database lists, and it will become
much more handy to track problems for files included via a potential
@include[_dir,_if_exists].
The error context is registered so as the full chain of events is
reported when using cascaded inclusions when for example
tokenize_auth_file() recurses over itself on new files, displaying one
context line for each file gone through when tokenizing things.

This adds a check on the recursion depth when including authentication
configuration files, something that has never been done when processing
'@' files for database and user name lists in pg_hba.conf. On HEAD,
this was leading to a rather confusing error, as of:
FATAL: exceeded maxAllocatedDescs (NN) while trying to open file "/path/blah.conf"
This refactors the code so as the error reported is now the following,
which is the same as for GUCs:
FATAL: could not open file "/path/blah.conf": maximum nesting depth exceeded
This reduces a bit the verbosity of the error message used for files
included in user and database lists, reporting only the file name of
what's failing to load, without mentioning the relative or absolute path
specified after '@' in a HBA file. The absolute path is built upon what
'@' defines anyway, so there is no actual loss of information. This
makes the future inclusion logic much simpler. A follow-up patch will
add an error context to be able to track on which line of which file the
inclusion is failing, to close the loop, providing all the information
needed to know the full chain of events.
This logic has been extracted from a larger patch written by Julien,
