This results in a slightly less specific error message when OVER
is used in a context where we don't accept window functions, but
per discussion, it's worth it to get the benefit of not needing
to reserve this keyword any more. This same refactoring will
also let us avoid reserving some other keywords that we expect
to add in upcoming patches (specifically, IGNORE, RESPECT, and
FILTER).

In some cases, the use of these macros may be preferable to Assert()
or AssertMacro(), since this way the caller can set the trap message.

On many platforms the OS will round the sleep time to millisecond
resolution, but there is no reason for us to pre-emptively round the
argument to pg_usleep.
When the delay was measured in milliseconds and started from 1 ms, it
sometimes took many attempts until the logic that increases the delay by
multiplying with a random value between 1 and 2 actually managed to bump it
from 1 ms to 2 ms. That lead to a sequence of 1 ms waits until the delay
started to increase. This wasn't really a problem but it looked odd if you
observed the waits. There is no measurable difference in performance, but
it's more readable this way.

The MaxAllocSize guard is convenient for most callers, because it
reduces the need for careful attention to overflow, data type selection,
and the SET_VARSIZE() limit. A handful of callers are happy to navigate
those hazards in exchange for the ability to allocate a larger chunk.
Introduce MemoryContextAllocHuge() and repalloc_huge(). Use this in
tuplesort.c and tuplestore.c, enabling internal sorts of up to INT_MAX
tuples, a factor-of-48 increase. In particular, B-tree index builds can
now benefit from much-larger maintenance_work_mem settings.

When there's a comment on an index that was created with UNIQUE or PRIMARY
KEY constraint syntax, we need to label the comment as depending on the
constraint not the index, since only the constraint object actually appears
in the dump. This incorrect dependency can lead to parallel pg_restore
trying to restore the comment before the index has been created, per bug
#8257 from Lloyd Albin.
This patch fixes pg_dump to produce the right dependency in dumps made
in the future. Usually we also try to hack pg_restore to work around
bogus dependencies, so that existing (wrong) dumps can still be restored in
parallel mode; but that doesn't seem practical here since there's no easy
way to relate the constraint dump entry to the comment after the fact.

On Unix-ish platforms, EWOULDBLOCK may be the same as EAGAIN, which is
*not* a success return, at least not on Linux. We need to treat it as a
failure to avoid giving a misleading error message. Per the Single Unix
Spec, only EINPROGRESS and EINTR returns indicate that the connection
attempt is in progress.
On Windows, on the other hand, EWOULDBLOCK (WSAEWOULDBLOCK) is the expected
case. We must accept EINPROGRESS as well because Cygwin will return that,
and it doesn't seem worth distinguishing Cygwin from native Windows here.
It's not very clear whether EINTR can occur on Windows, but let's leave
that part of the logic alone in the absence of concrete trouble reports.
Also, remove the test for errno == 0, effectively reverting commit
da9501bddb42222dc33c031b1db6ce2133bcee7b, which AFAICS was just a thinko;
or at best it might have been a workaround for a platform-specific bug,
which we can hope is gone now thirteen years later. In any case, since
libpq makes no effort to reset errno to zero before calling connect(),
it seems unlikely that that test has ever reliably done anything useful.

Valgrind "client requests" in aset.c and mcxt.c teach Valgrind and its
Memcheck tool about the PostgreSQL allocator. This makes Valgrind
roughly as sensitive to memory errors involving palloc chunks as it is
to memory errors involving malloc chunks. Further client requests in
PageAddItem() and printtup() verify that all bits being added to a
buffer page or furnished to an output function are predictably-defined.
Those tests catch failures of C-language functions to fully initialize
the bits of a Datum, which in turn stymie optimizations that rely on
_equalConst(). Define the USE_VALGRIND symbol in pg_config_manual.h to
enable these additions. An included "suppression file" silences nominal
errors we don't plan to fix.

Move some repeated debugging code into functions and store intermediates
in variables where not presently necessary. No code-generation changes
in a production build, and no functional changes. This simplifies and
focuses the main patch.

Every other core buffer page consumer initializes the bytes it furnishes
to PageAddItem(). For consistency, do the same here. No back-patch;
regardless, we couldn't count on the fix so long as binary upgrade can

GNU gettext selects a default encoding for the messages it emits in a
platform-specific manner; it uses the Windows ANSI code page on Windows
and follows LC_CTYPE on other platforms. This is inconvenient for
PostgreSQL server processes, so realize consistent cross-platform
behavior by calling bind_textdomain_codeset() on Windows each time we
permanently change LC_CTYPE. This primarily affects SQL_ASCII databases
and processes like the postmaster that do not attach to a database,
making their behavior consistent with PostgreSQL on non-Windows
platforms. Messages from SQL_ASCII databases use the encoding implied
by the database LC_CTYPE, and messages from non-database processes use
LC_CTYPE from the postmaster system environment. PlatformEncoding
becomes unused, so remove it.
Make write_console() prefer WriteConsoleW() to write() regardless of the
encodings in use. In this situation, write() will invariably mishandle
non-ASCII characters.
elog.c has assumed that messages conform to the database encoding.
While usually true, this does not hold for SQL_ASCII and MULE_INTERNAL.
Introduce MessageEncoding to track the actual encoding of message text.
The present consumers are Windows-specific code for converting messages
to UTF16 for use in system interfaces. This fixes the appearance in
Windows event logs and consoles of translated messages from SQL_ASCII
processes like the postmaster. Note that SQL_ASCII inherently disclaims
a strong notion of encoding, so non-ASCII byte sequences interpolated
into messages by %s may yet yield a nonsensical message. MULE_INTERNAL
has similar problems at present, albeit for a different reason: its lack
of libiconv support or a conversion to UTF8.
Consequently, one need no longer restart Windows with a different
Windows ANSI code page to broadly test backend logging under a given
language. Changing the user's locale ("Format") is enough. Several
accounts can simultaneously run postmasters under different locales, all
correctly logging localized messages to Windows event logs and consoles.

In binary upgrade mode, we need to recreate and then drop dropped
columns so that all the columns get the right attribute number. This is
true for foreign tables as well as for native tables. For foreign
tables we have been getting the first part right but not the second,
leading to bogus columns in the upgraded database. Fix this all the way
back to 9.1, where foreign tables were introduced.

In replication, when we shutdown the master, walsender tries to send
all the outstanding WAL records to the standby, and then to exit. This
basically means that all the WAL records are fully synced between
two servers after the clean shutdown of the master. So, after
promoting the standby to new master, we can restart the stopped
master as new standby without the need for a fresh backup from
new master.
But there was one problem so far: though walsender tries to send all
the outstanding WAL records, it doesn't wait for them to be replicated
to the standby. Then, before receiving all the WAL records,
walreceiver can detect the closure of connection and exit. We cannot
guarantee that there is no missing WAL in the standby after clean
shutdown of the master. In this case, backup from new master is
required when restarting the stopped master as new standby.
This patch fixes this problem. It just changes walsender so that it
waits for all the outstanding WAL records to be replicated to the
standby before closing the replication connection.
Per discussion, this is a fix that needs to get backpatched rather than
new feature. So, back-patch to 9.1 where enough infrastructure for
this exists.
Patch by me, reviewed by Andres Freund.

MarkBufferDirtyHint() writes WAL, and should know if it's got a

This avoids platform-dependent behavior wherein pg_sleep() might fail to be
interrupted by statement timeout, query cancel, SIGTERM, etc. Also, since
there's no reason to wake up once a second any more, we can reduce the
power consumption of a sleeping backend a tad.
Back-patch to 9.3, since use of SA_RESTART for SIGALRM makes this a bigger
issue than it used to be.

Back-patch to 9.1 where the directory archive was introduced.
|

The exclusion of SIGALRM dates back to Berkeley days, when Postgres used
SIGALRM in only one very short stretch of code. Nowadays, allowing it to
interrupt kernel calls doesn't seem like a very good idea, since its use
for statement_timeout means SIGALRM could occur anyplace in the code, and
there are far too many call sites where we aren't prepared to deal with
EINTR failures. When third-party code is taken into consideration, it
seems impossible that we ever could be fully EINTR-proof, so better to
use SA_RESTART always and deal with the implications of that. One such
implication is that we should not assume pg_usleep() will be terminated
early by a signal. Therefore, long sleeps should probably be replaced
by WaitLatch operations where practical.
Back-patch to 9.3 so we can get some beta testing on this change.

SP-GiST's original scheme for avoiding deadlocks during concurrent index
insertions doesn't work, as per report from Hailong Li, and there isn't any
evident way to make it work completely. We could possibly lock individual
inner tuples instead of their whole pages, but preliminary experimentation
suggests that the performance penalty would be huge. Instead, if we fail
to get a buffer lock while descending the tree, just restart the tree
descent altogether. We keep the old tuple positioning rules, though, in
hopes of reducing the number of cases where this can happen.

elog.c has historically treated LOG messages as low-priority during
bootstrap and standalone operation. This has led to confusion and even
masked a bug, because the normal expectation of code authors is that
elog(LOG) will put something into the postmaster log, and that wasn't
happening during initdb. So get rid of the special-case rule and make
the priority order the same as it is in normal operation. To keep from
cluttering initdb's output and the behavior of a standalone backend,
tweak the severity level of three messages routinely issued by xlog.c
during startup and shutdown so that they won't appear in these cases.
Per my proposal back in December.

pg_filedump and other external utility programs are likely to want to be
able to check Postgres page checksums. To avoid messy duplication of code,
move the checksumming functionality into an exported header file, much as
we did awhile back for the CRC code.
In passing, get rid of an unportable assumption that a static char[] array
will be word-aligned, and do some other minor code beautification.

In most scenarios a portal without a ResourceOwner is dead and not subject
to any further execution, but a portal for a cursor WITH HOLD remains in
existence with no ResourceOwner after the creating transaction is over.
In this situation, if we attempt to "execute" the portal directly to fetch
data from it, we were setting CurrentResourceOwner to NULL, leading to a
segfault if the datatype output code did anything that required a resource
owner (such as trying to fetch system catalog entries that weren't already
cached). The case appears to be impossible to provoke with stock libpq,
but psqlODBC at least is able to cause it when working with held cursors.
Simplest fix is to just skip the assignment to CurrentResourceOwner, so
that any resources used by the data output operations will be managed by
the transaction-level resource owner instead. For consistency I changed
all the places that install a portal's resowner as current, even though
some of them are probably not reachable with a held cursor's portal.
Per report from Joshua Berry (with thanks to Hiroshi Inoue for developing
a self-contained test case). Back-patch to all supported versions.

Several loops in the JSON parser examined a byte in memory just before

Since commit f21bb9cfb5646e1793dcc9c0ea697bab99afa523, this function

previous loop control logic. In passing, revert the addition of an
unused variable by the same commit, presumably a debugging relic.

Consumers are entitled to read the full 64 bytes pertaining to a Name;

Extend the FDW API (which we already changed for 9.3) so that an FDW can
report whether specific foreign tables are insertable/updatable/deletable.
The default assumption continues to be that they're updatable if the
relevant executor callback function is supplied by the FDW, but finer
granularity is now possible. As a test case, add an "updatable" option to
contrib/postgres_fdw.
This patch also fixes the information_schema views, which previously did
not think that foreign tables were ever updatable, and fixes
view_is_auto_updatable() so that a view on a foreign table can be
auto-updatable.
initdb forced due to changes in information_schema views and the functions
they rely on. This is a bit unfortunate to do post-beta1, but if we don't
change this now then we'll have another API break for FDWs when we do
change it.

Per discussion on -hackers. We treat Unicode escapes when unescaping
them similarly to the way we treat them in PostgreSQL string literals.
Escapes in the ASCII range are always accepted, no matter what the
database encoding. Escapes for higher code points are only processed in
UTF8 databases, and attempts to process them in other databases will
result in an error. \u0000 is never unescaped, since it would result in
an impermissible null byte.

We need to increment the refcount on the composite type's cached tuple
descriptor while we do lookups of its column types. Otherwise a cache
flush could occur and release the tuple descriptor before we're done with
it. This fails reliably with -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, but the odds of a
failure in a production build seem rather low (since the pfree'd descriptor
typically wouldn't get scribbled on immediately). That may explain the
lack of any previous reports. Buildfarm issue noted by Christian Ullrich.

pg_isready displays the host name and the port number that it uses to connect
to the server. So far, pg_isready didn't use the conninfo specified in -d option

calculation.

When the existing code here was written, it made sense to special-case
RowExprs because that was the only way that we could handle row comparisons
at all. Now that we have record_eq() and arrays of composites, the generic
logic for "scalar" types will in fact work on RowExprs too, so there's no
reason to throw error for combinations of RowExprs and other ways of
forming composite values, nor to ignore the possibility of using a
ScalarArrayOpExpr. But keep using the old logic when comparing two
RowExprs, for consistency with the main transformAExprOp() logic. (This
allows some cases with not-quite-identical rowtypes to succeed, so we might
get push-back if we removed it.) Per bug #8198 from Rafal Rzepecki.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this works fine as far back as
8.4.
