Backpatch to 9.5.
Author: Pavel Stěhule

As reported by Bill Parker, PL/Tcl did not validate some malloc() calls
against NULL return. Fix by using palloc() in a new long-lived memory
context instead. This allows us to simplify error handling too, by
simply deleting the memory context instead of doing retail frees.
There's still a lot that could be done to improve PL/Tcl's memory
handling ...
This is pretty ancient, so backpatch all the way back.

This removes some info about support procedures being used, which was
obsoleted by commit db5f98ab4f, as well as add some more documentation
on how to create new opclasses using the Minmax infrastructure.
(Hopefully we can get something similar for Inclusion as well.)
In passing, fix some obsolete mentions of "mmtuples" in source code
comments.
Backpatch to 9.5, where BRIN was introduced.

In the passing, also move AT_ReAddComment to more logical position in the
enum, after all the Constraint-related subcommands.
This fixes a compiler warning, added by commit e42375fc. Backpatch to 9.5,
like that patch.

Defect noticed by Coverity.

In the previous coding, timeout would be noticed and reported only when
poll() or socket() returned zero (or the equivalent behavior on Windows).
Ordinarily that should work well enough, but it seems conceivable that we
could get into a state where poll() always returns a nonzero value --- for
example, if it is noticing a condition on one of the file descriptors that
we do not think is reason to exit the loop. If that happened, we'd be in a
busy-wait loop that would fail to terminate even when the timeout expires.
We can make this more robust at essentially no cost, by deciding to exit
of our own accord if we compute a zero or negative time-remaining-to-wait.
Previously the code noted this but just clamped the time-remaining to zero,
expecting that we'd detect timeout on the next loop iteration.
Back-patch to 9.2. While 9.1 had a version of WaitLatchOrSocket, it was
primitive compared to later versions, and did not guarantee reliable
detection of timeouts anyway. (Essentially, this is a refinement of
commit 3e7fdcffd6f77187, which was back-patched only as far as 9.2.)

Previously, there was an inconsistency across json/jsonb operators that
operate on datums containing JSON arrays -- only some operators
supported negative array count-from-the-end subscripting. Specifically,
only a new-to-9.5 jsonb deletion operator had support (the new "jsonb -
integer" operator). This inconsistency seemed likely to be
counter-intuitive to users. To fix, allow all places where the user can
supply an integer subscript to accept a negative subscript value,
including path-orientated operators and functions, as well as other
extraction operators. This will need to be called out as an
incompatibility in the 9.5 release notes, since it's possible that users
are relying on certain established extraction operators changed here
yielding NULL in the event of a negative subscript.
For the json type, this requires adding a way of cheaply getting the
total JSON array element count ahead of time when parsing arrays with a
negative subscript involved, necessitating an ad-hoc lex and parse.
This is followed by a "conversion" from a negative subscript to its
equivalent positive-wise value using the count. From there on, it's as
if a positive-wise value was originally provided.
Note that there is still a minor inconsistency here across jsonb
deletion operators. Unlike the aforementioned new "-" deletion operator
that accepts an integer on its right hand side, the new "#-" path
orientated deletion variant does not throw an error when it appears like
an array subscript (input that could be recognized by as an integer
literal) is being used on an object, which is wrong-headed. The reason
for not being stricter is that it could be the case that an object pair
happens to have a key value that looks like an integer; in general,
these two possibilities are impossible to differentiate with rhs path
text[] argument elements. However, we still don't allow the "#-"
path-orientated deletion operator to perform array-style subscripting.
Rather, we just return the original left operand value in the event of a
negative subscript (which seems analogous to how the established
"jsonb/json #> text[]" path-orientated operator may yield NULL in the
event of an invalid subscript).
In passing, make SetArrayPath() stricter about not accepting cases where
there is trailing non-numeric garbage bytes rather than a clean NUL
byte. This means, for example, that strings like "10e10" are now not
accepted as an array subscript of 10 by some new-to-9.5 path-orientated
jsonb operators (e.g. the new #- operator). Finally, remove dead code
for jsonb subscript deletion; arguably, this should have been done in
commit b81c7b409.

In commit 1345cc67bbb014209714af32b5681b1e11eaf964, I introduced caching
of expressions representing type-cast operations into plpgsql. However,
I supposed that I could cache both the expression trees and the evaluation
state trees derived from them for the life of the session. This doesn't
work, because we execute the expressions in plpgsql's simple_eval_estate,
which has an ecxt_per_query_memory that is only transaction-lifespan.
Therefore we can end up putting pointers into the evaluation state tree
that point to transaction-lifespan memory; in particular this happens if
the cast expression calls a SQL-language function, as reported by Geoff
Winkless.
The minimum-risk fix seems to be to treat the state trees the same way
we do for "simple expression" trees in plpgsql, ie create them in the
simple_eval_estate's ecxt_per_query_memory, which means recreating them
once per transaction.
Since I had to introduce bookkeeping overhead for that anyway, I bought
back some of the added cost by sharing the read-only expression trees
across all functions in the session, instead of using a per-function
table as originally. The simple-expression bookkeeping takes care of
the recursive-usage risk that I was concerned about avoiding before.
At some point we should take a harder look at how all this works,
and see if we can't reduce the amount of tree reinitialization needed.
But that won't happen for 9.5.

xlc provides "long long" unconditionally at C99-compatible language
levels, and this option provokes a warning. The warning interferes with
"configure" tests that fail in response to any warning. Notably, before
commit 85a2a8903f7e9151793308d0638621003aded5ae, it interfered with the
test for -qnoansialias. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).

It's standard for quicksort implementations, after having partitioned the
input into two subgroups, to recurse to process the smaller partition and
then handle the larger partition by iterating. This method guarantees
that no more than log2(N) levels of recursion can be needed. However,
Bentley and McIlroy argued that checking to see which partition is smaller
isn't worth the cycles, and so their code doesn't do that but just always
recurses on the left partition. In most cases that's fine; but with
worst-case input we might need O(N) levels of recursion, and that means
that qsort could be driven to stack overflow. Such an overflow seems to
be the only explanation for today's report from Yiqing Jin of a SIGSEGV
in med3_tuple while creating an index of a couple billion entries with a
very large maintenance_work_mem setting. Therefore, let's spend the few
additional cycles and lines of code needed to choose the smaller partition
for recursion.
Also, fix up the qsort code so that it properly uses size_t not int for
some intermediate values representing numbers of items. This would only
be a live risk when sorting more than INT_MAX bytes (in qsort/qsort_arg)
or tuples (in qsort_tuple), which I believe would never happen with any
caller in the current core code --- but perhaps it could happen with
call sites in third-party modules? In any case, this is trouble waiting
to happen, and the corrected code is probably if anything shorter and
faster than before, since it removes sign-extension steps that had to
happen when converting between int and size_t.
In passing, move a couple of CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() calls so that it's
not necessary to preserve the value of "r" across them, and prettify
the output of gen_qsort_tuple.pl a little.
Back-patch to all supported branches. The odds of hitting this issue
are probably higher in 9.4 and up than before, due to the new ability
to allocate sort workspaces exceeding 1GB, but there's no good reason
to believe that it's impossible to crash older branches this way.

The result closely resembles linking of these modules for the "win32"
port. Augment the $(exports_file) header so the file is also usable as
an import file. Unfortunately, relocating an AIX installation will now
require adding $(pkglibdir) to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Back-patch to 9.5,
where the modules were introduced.

This allows PostgreSQL modules and their dependencies to have undefined
symbols, resolved at runtime. Perl module shared objects rely on that
in Perl 5.8.0 and later. This fixes the crash when PL/PerlU loads such
modules, as the hstore_plperl test suite does. Module authors can link
using -Wl,-G to permit undefined symbols; by default, linking will fail
as it has. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).

In the test query I added for ALTER TABLE retaining comments, the order of
the result rows was not stable, and varied across systems. Add an ORDER BY
to make the order predictable. This should fix the buildfarm failures.

When a column's datatype is changed, ATExecAlterColumnType() rebuilds all
the affected indexes and constraints, and the comments from the old
indexes/constraints were not carried over.
To fix, create a synthetic COMMENT ON command in the work queue, to re-add
any comments on constraints. For indexes, there's a comment field in
IndexStmt that is used.
This fixes bug #13126, reported by Kirill Simonov. Original patch by
Michael Paquier, reviewed by Petr Jelinek and me. This bug is present in
all versions, but only backpatch to 9.5. Given how minor the issue is, it
doesn't seem worth the work and risk to backpatch further than that.

The code in ATPostAlterTypeParse was very deeply indented, mostly because
there were two nested switch-case statements, which add a lot of
indentation. Use if-else blocks instead, to make the code less indented
and more readable.
This is in preparation for next patch that makes some actualy changes to
the function. These cosmetic parts have been separated to make it easier
to see the real changes in the other patch.

Per Coverity (not that any of these are so non-obvious that they should not

pg_receivexlog and pg_recvlogical error out when --create-slot is
specified and a slot with the same name already exists. In some cases,
especially with pg_receivexlog, that's rather annoying and requires
additional scripting.
Backpatch to 9.5 as slot control functions have newly been added to
pg_receivexlog, and there doesn't seem much point leaving it in a less
useful state.

Ordinarily, a failure (unexpected exit status) of the startup subprocess
should be considered fatal, so the postmaster should just close up shop
and quit. However, if we sent the startup process a SIGQUIT or SIGKILL
signal, the failure is hardly "unexpected", and we should attempt restart;
this is necessary for recovery from ordinary backend crashes in hot-standby
scenarios. I attempted to implement the latter rule with a two-line patch
in commit 442231d7f71764b8c628044e7ce2225f9aa43b67, but it now emerges that
that patch was a few bricks shy of a load: it failed to distinguish the
case of a signaled startup process from the case where the new startup
process crashes before reaching database consistency. That resulted in
infinitely respawning a new startup process only to have it crash again.
To handle this properly, we really must track whether we have sent the
*current* startup process a kill signal. Rather than add yet another
ad-hoc boolean to the postmaster's state, I chose to unify this with the
existing RecoveryError flag into an enum tracking the startup process's
state. That seems more consistent with the postmaster's general state
machine design.
Back-patch to 9.0, like the previous patch.

When enabling wal_compression, there is a risk to leak data similarly to
the BREACH and CRIME attacks on SSL where the compression ratio of
a full page image gives a hint of what is the existing data of this page.
This vulnerability is quite cumbersome to exploit in practice, but doable.
So this patch makes wal_compression PGC_SUSET in order to prevent
non-superusers from enabling it and exploiting the vulnerability while
DBA thinks the risk very seriously and disables it in postgresql.conf.
Back-patch to 9.5 where wal_compression was introduced.

POSIX does not specify the -q option, and many implementations do not

SUSv2-era shells don't set the PWD variable, though anything more modern
does. In the buildfarm environment this could lead to test.sh executing
with PWD pointing to $HOME or another high-level directory, so that there
were conflicts between concurrent executions of the test in different
branch subdirectories. This appears to be the explanation for recent
intermittent failures on buildfarm members binturong and dingo (and might
well have something to do with the buildfarm script's failure to capture
log files from pg_upgrade tests, too).
To fix, just use `pwd` in place of $PWD. AFAICS test.sh is the only place
in our source tree that depended on $PWD. Back-patch to all versions
containing this script.
Per buildfarm. Thanks to Oskari Saarenmaa for diagnosing the problem.

If an allocation fails in the main message handling loop, pqParseInput3
or pqParseInput2, it should not be treated as "not enough data available
yet". Otherwise libpq will wait indefinitely for more data to arrive from
the server, and gets stuck forever.
This isn't a complete fix - getParamDescriptions and getCopyStart still
have the same issue, but it's a step in the right direction.

Build.bat and vcregress.bat got similar treatment years ago. I'm not sure
why install.bat wasn't treated at the same time, but it seems like a good
idea anyway.
The immediate problem with the old install.bat was that it had quoting
issues, and wouldn't work if the target directory's name contained spaces.
This fixes that problem.
I committed this to master yesterday, this is a backpatch of the same for
all supported versions.

When spilling transaction data to disk a simple typo caused the output
file to be closed and reopened for every serialized change. That happens
to not have a huge impact on linux, which is why it probably wasn't
noticed so far, but on windows that appears to trigger actual disk
writes after every change. Not fun.
The bug fortunately does not have any impact besides speed. A change
could end up being in the wrong segment (last instead of next), but
since we read all files to the end, that's just ugly, not really
problematic. It's not a problem to upgrade, since transaction spill
files do not persist across restarts.

The previous coding tried to handle possible failures when fsyncing a

Expose PG_VERSION_NUM (e.g., "90600") as a Make variable; but for
consistency with the other Make variables holding similar info,
call the variable just VERSION_NUM not PG_VERSION_NUM.
There was some discussion of making this value available as a pg_config
value as well. However, that would entail substantially more work than
this two-line patch. Given that there was not exactly universal consensus
that we need this at all, let's just do a minimal amount of work for now.
Back-patch of commit a5d489ccb7e613c7ca3be6141092b8c1d2c13fa7, so that this
variable is actually useful for its intended purpose sometime before 2020.

There were two issues here. First, if a query got stuck so that it took
e.g. 5 seconds, and progress interval was 1 second, no progress reports were
printed until the query returned. Fix so that we wake up specifically to
print the progress report. Secondly, if pgbench got stuck so that it would
nevertheless not print a progress report on time, and enough time passes
that it's already time to print the next progress report, just skip the one
that was missed. Before this patch, it would print the missed one with 0 TPS
immediately after the previous one.

Commit de76884 changed an archive recovery so that the last WAL
segment with old timeline was renamed with suffix .partial. It should
have updated WAL-related utilities so that they can handle such
.paritial WAL files, but we forgot that.
This patch changes pg_archivecleanup so that it can clean up even
archived WAL files with .partial suffix. Also it allows us to specify
.partial WAL file name as the command-line argument "oldestkeptwalfile".
This patch also changes pg_resetxlog so that it can remove .partial
WAL files in pg_xlog directory.
pg_xlogdump cannot handle .partial WAL files. Per discussion,
we decided only to document that limitation instead of adding the fix.
Because a user can easily work around the limitation (i.e., just remove
.partial suffix from the file name) and the fix seems complicated for
very narrow use case.
Back-patch to 9.5 where the problem existed.

"TextDatumGetCString(PG_GETARG_TEXT_P(x))" is formally wrong: a text*
is not a Datum. Although this coding will accidentally fail to fail on
all known platforms, it risks leaking memory if a detoast step is needed,
unlike "TextDatumGetCString(PG_GETARG_DATUM(x))" which is what's used
elsewhere. Make pg_get_object_address() fall in line with other uses.
