This never worked, I think. Per report from Marc Munro.
In passing, fix funny spacing in the COMMENT ON command as a result of
excess space in the "label" string.

Commit 0e5680f4737a9c6aa94aa9e77543e5de60411322 contained a thinko
mixing LOCKMODE with LockTupleMode. This caused misbehavior in the case
where a tuple is marked with a multixact with at most a FOR SHARE lock,
and another transaction tries to acquire a FOR NO KEY EXCLUSIVE lock;
this case should block but doesn't.
Include a new isolation tester spec file to explicitely try all the
tuple lock combinations; without the fix it shows the problem:
starting permutation: s1_begin s1_lcksvpt s1_tuplock2 s2_tuplock3 s1_commit
step s1_begin: BEGIN;
step s1_lcksvpt: SELECT * FROM multixact_conflict FOR KEY SHARE; SAVEPOINT foo;
a
1
step s1_tuplock2: SELECT * FROM multixact_conflict FOR SHARE;
a
1
step s2_tuplock3: SELECT * FROM multixact_conflict FOR NO KEY UPDATE;
a
1
step s1_commit: COMMIT;
With the fixed code, step s2_tuplock3 blocks until session 1 commits,
which is the correct behavior.
All other cases behave correctly.
Backpatch to 9.3, like the commit that introduced the problem.

As every error in mark_file_as_archived() will lead to a failure of
pg_basebackup the FD leak couldn't ever lead to a real problem. It
seems better to fix the leak anyway though, rather than silence
Coverity, as the usage of the function might get extended or copied at
some point in the future.
Pointed out by Coverity.
Backpatch to 9.2, like the relevant part of the previous patch.

WAL (and timeline history) files created by pg_basebackup did not
maintain the new base backup's archive status. That's currently not a
problem if the new node is used as a standby - but if that node is
promoted all still existing files can get archived again. With a high
wal_keep_segment settings that can happen a significant time later -
which is quite confusing.
Change both the backend (for the -x/-X fetch case) and pg_basebackup
(for -X stream) itself to always mark WAL/timeline files included in
the base backup as .done. That's in line with walreceiver.c doing so.
The verbosity of the pg_basebackup changes show pretty clearly that it
needs some refactoring, but that'd result in not be backpatchable
changes.
Backpatch to 9.1 where pg_basebackup was introduced.

Backpatch to 9.3 where src/common was introduce, because a bugfix that
needs to be backpatched, requires the function. Earlier branches will
have to duplicate the code.

At one point in the development of this feature, it was claimed that
allowing negative values would be useful to compensate for timezone
differences between master and slave servers. That was based on a mistaken
assumption that commit timestamps are recorded in local time; but of course
they're in UTC. Nor is a negative apply delay likely to be a sane way of
coping with server clock skew. However, the committed patch still treated
negative delays as doing something, and the timezone misapprehension
survived in the user documentation as well.
If recovery_min_apply_delay were a proper GUC we'd just set the minimum
allowed value to be zero; but for the moment it seems better to treat
negative settings as if they were zero.
In passing do some extra wordsmithing on the parameter's documentation,
including correcting a second misstatement that the parameter affects
processing of Restore Point records.
Issue noted by Michael Paquier, who also provided the code patch; doc
changes by me. Back-patch to 9.4 where the feature was introduced.

For simple boolean variables such as ON_ERROR_STOP, psql has for a long
time recognized variant spellings of "on" and "off" (such as "1"/"0"),
and it also made a point of warning you if you'd misspelled the setting.
But these conveniences did not exist for other keyword-valued variables.
In particular, though ECHO_HIDDEN and ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK include "on" and
"off" as possible values, none of the alternative spellings for those were
recognized; and to make matters worse the code would just silently assume
"on" was meant for any unrecognized spelling. Several people have reported
getting bitten by this, so let's fix it. In detail, this patch:
* Allows all spellings recognized by ParseVariableBool() for ECHO_HIDDEN
and ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK.
* Reports a warning for unrecognized values for COMP_KEYWORD_CASE, ECHO,
ECHO_HIDDEN, HISTCONTROL, ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK, and VERBOSITY.
* Recognizes all values for all these variables case-insensitively;
previously there was a mishmash of case-sensitive and case-insensitive
behaviors.
Back-patch to all supported branches. There is a small risk of breaking
existing scripts that were accidentally failing to malfunction; but the
consensus is that the chance of detecting real problems and preventing
future mistakes outweighs this.

Commit 36a35c55 changed the divisor from 3 to 6, for no apparent reason.
Reducing GinMaxItemSize like that created a dump/reload hazard: loading a
9.3 database to 9.4 might fail with "index row size XXX exceeds maximum 1352
for index ..." error. Revert the change.
While we're at it, make the calculation slightly more accurate. It used to
divide the available space on page by three, then subtract
sizeof(ItemIdData), and finally round down. That's not totally accurate; the
item pointers for the three items are packed tight right after the page
header, but there is alignment padding after the item pointers. Change the
calculation to reflect that, like BTMaxItemSize does. I tested this with
different block sizes on systems with 4- and 8-byte alignment, and the value
after the final MAXALIGN_DOWN was the same with both methods on all
configurations. So this does not make any difference currently, but let's be
tidy.
Also add a comment explaining what the macro does.
This fixes bug #12292 reported by Robert Thaler. Backpatch to 9.4, where the
bug was introduced.

We were trying to acquire the lock even when we were subsequently
not sleeping in some other transaction, which opens us up unnecessarily
to deadlocks. In particular, this is troublesome if an update tries to
lock an updated version of a tuple and finds itself doing EvalPlanQual
update chain walking; more than two sessions doing this concurrently
will find themselves sleeping on each other because the HW tuple lock
acquisition in heap_lock_tuple called from EvalPlanQualFetch races with
the same tuple lock being acquired in heap_update -- one of these
sessions sleeps on the other one to finish while holding the tuple lock,
and the other one sleeps on the tuple lock.
Per trouble report from Andrew Sackville-West in
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20140731233051.GN17765@andrew-ThinkPad-X230
His scenario can be simplified down to a relatively simple
isolationtester spec file which I don't include in this commit; the
reason is that the current isolationtester is not able to deal with more
than one blocked session concurrently and it blocks instead of raising
the expected deadlock. In the future, if we improve isolationtester, it
would be good to include the spec file in the isolation schedule. I
posted it in
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20141212205254.GC1768@alvh.no-ip.org
Hat tip to Mark Kirkwood, who helped diagnose the trouble.

For some reason this seems to have been missed when the lists in
src/timezone/tznames/ were first constructed. We can't put it in Default
because of the conflict with US CST, but we should certainly list it among
the alternative entries in Asia.txt. (I checked for other oversights, but
all the other abbreviations that are in current use according to the IANA
files seem to be accounted for.) Noted while responding to bug #12326.

In LWLockRelease() (and in 9.4+ LWLockUpdateVar()) we release enqueued
waiters using PGSemaphoreUnlock(). As there are other sources of such
unlocks backends only wake up if MyProc->lwWaiting is set to false;
which is only done in the aforementioned functions.
Before this commit there were dangers because the store to lwWaitLink
could become visible before the store to lwWaitLink. This could both
happen due to compiler reordering (on most compilers) and on some
platforms due to the CPU reordering stores.
The possible consequence of this is that a backend stops waiting
before lwWaitLink is set to NULL. If that backend then tries to
acquire another lock and has to wait there the list could become
corrupted once the lwWaitLink store is finally performed.
Add a write memory barrier to prevent that issue.
Unfortunately the barrier support has been only added in 9.2. Given
that the issue has not knowingly been observed in praxis it seems
sufficient to prohibit compiler reordering using volatile for 9.0 and
9.1. Actual problems due to compiler reordering are more likely
anyway.

Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions). This is mere
future-proofing in the context of the master branch, but commit
f6dc6dd5ba54d52c0733aaafc50da2fbaeabb8b0 requires it of older branches.

When starting up from a basebackup taken off a standby extra logic has
to be applied to compute the point where the data directory is
consistent. Normal base backups use a WAL record for that purpose, but
that isn't possible on a standby.
That logic had a error check ensuring that the cluster's control file
indicates being in recovery. Unfortunately that check was too strict,
disregarding the fact that the control file could also indicate that
the cluster was shut down while in recovery.
That's possible when the a cluster starting from a basebackup is shut
down before the backup label has been removed. When everything goes
well that's a short window, but when either restore_command or
primary_conninfo isn't configured correctly the window can get much
wider. That's because inbetween reading and unlinking the label we
restore the last checkpoint from WAL which can need additional WAL.
To fix simply also allow starting when the control file indicates
"shutdown in recovery". There's nicer fixes imaginable, but they'd be
more invasive.
Backpatch to 9.2 where support for taking basebackups from standbys
was added.

Use SSPI authentication to allow connections exclusively from the OS
user that launched the test suite. This closes on Windows the
vulnerability that commit be76a6d39e2832d4b88c0e1cc381aa44a7f86881
closed on other platforms. Users of "make installcheck" or custom test
harnesses can run "pg_regress --config-auth=DATADIR" to activate the
same authentication configuration that "make check" would use.

MapArrayTypeName would copy up to NAMEDATALEN-1 bytes of the base type
name, which of course is wrong: after prepending '_' there is only room for
NAMEDATALEN-2 bytes. Aside from being the wrong result, this case would
lead to overrunning the statically allocated work buffer. This would be a
security bug if the function were ever used outside bootstrap mode, but it
isn't, at least not in any currently supported branches.
Aside from fixing the off-by-one loop logic, this patch gets rid of the
static work buffer by having MapArrayTypeName pstrdup its result; the sole
caller was already doing that, so this just requires moving the pstrdup
call. This saves a few bytes but mainly it makes the API a lot cleaner.
Back-patch on the off chance that there is some third-party code using
MapArrayTypeName with less-secure input. Pushing pstrdup into the function
should not cause any serious problems for such hypothetical code; at worst
there might be a short term memory leak.
Per Coverity scanning.

The code for advancing through the input rows overlooked the case that we
might already be past the first row of the row pair now being considered,
in case the previous percentile also fell between the same two input rows.
Report and patch by Andrew Gierth; logic rewritten a bit for clarity by me.

Ordinarily we can omit checking of a WHERE condition that matches a partial
index's condition, when we are using an indexscan on that partial index.
However, in SELECT FOR UPDATE we must include the "redundant" filter
condition in the plan so that it gets checked properly in an EvalPlanQual
recheck. The planner got this mostly right, but improperly omitted the
filter condition if the index in question was on an inheritance child
table. In READ COMMITTED mode, this could result in incorrectly returning
just-updated rows that no longer satisfy the filter condition.
The cause of the error is using get_parse_rowmark() when get_plan_rowmark()
is what should be used during planning. In 9.3 and up, also fix the same
mistake in contrib/postgres_fdw. It's currently harmless there (for lack
of inheritance support) but wrong is wrong, and the incorrect code might
get copied to someplace where it's more significant.
Report and fix by Kyotaro Horiguchi. Back-patch to all supported branches.

In READ COMMITTED mode, if a SELECT FOR UPDATE discovers it has to redo
WHERE-clause checking on rows that have been updated since the SELECT's
snapshot, it invokes EvalPlanQual processing to do that. If this first
occurs within a non-first child table of an inheritance tree, the previous
coding could accidentally re-return a matching row from an earlier,
already-scanned child table. (And, to add insult to injury, I think this
could make it miss returning a row that should have been returned, if the
updated row that this happens on should still have passed the WHERE qual.)
Per report from Kyotaro Horiguchi; the added isolation test is based on his
test case.
This has been broken for quite awhile, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

The amount of space to reserve for the value's varlena header is
VARHDRSZ, not sizeof(VARHDRSZ). The latter coding accidentally
failed to fail because of the way the VARHDRSZ macro is currently
defined; but if we ever change it to return size_t (as one might
reasonably expect it to do), convertToJsonb() would have failed.

PGXS computes srcdir from VPATH, PostgreSQL proper computes VPATH from
srcdir, and doing both results in an error from make. Conditionalize so
only one of these takes effect.

The user can just set VPATH directly. There is no need to invent
another variable.

dblink and postgres_fdw use SHLIB_PREREQS = submake-libpq to build libpq
first. This doesn't work in a PGXS build, because there is no libpq to
build. So just omit setting SHLIB_PREREQS in this case.
Note that PGXS users can still use SHLIB_PREREQS (although it is not
documented). The problem here is only that contrib modules can be built
in-tree or using PGXS, and the prerequisite is only applicable in the
former case.
Commit 6697aa2bc25c83b88d6165340348a31328c35de6 previously attempted to
address this by creating a somewhat fake submake-libpq target in
Makefile.global. That was not the right fix, and it was also done in a
nonportable way, so revert that.

Since this is not something that a user should change,
pg_config_manual.h was an inappropriate place for it.
In initdb.c, remove the use of the macro, because utils/guc.h can't be
included by non-backend code. But we hardcode all the other
configuration file names there, so this isn't a disaster.

Make the error messages issued by array_in() uniformly follow the style
ERROR: malformed array literal: "actual input string"
DETAIL: specific complaint here
and rewrite many of the specific complaints to be clearer.
The immediate motivation for doing this is a complaint from Josh Berkus
that json_to_record() produced an unintelligible error message when
dealing with an array item, because it tries to feed the JSON-format
array value to array_in(). Really it ought to be smart enough to
perform JSON-to-Postgres array conversion, but that's a future feature
not a bug fix. In the meantime, this change is something we agreed
we could back-patch into 9.4, and it should help de-confuse things a bit.

The logical decoding patchset introduced PROC_IN_LOGICAL_DECODING flag
PGXACT flag, that allows such backends to be skipped when computing
the xmin horizon/snapshots. That's fine and sensible for walsenders
streaming out logical changes, but not at all fine for SQL backends
doing logical decoding. If the latter set that flag any change they
have performed outside of logical decoding will not be regarded as
visible - which e.g. can lead to that change being vacuumed away.
Note that not setting the flag for SQL backends isn't particularly
bothersome - the SQL backend doesn't do streaming, so it only runs for
a limited amount of time.
Per buildfarm member 'tick' and Alvaro.
Backpatch to 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced.

Davide S. reported that json_agg() sometimes produced multiple trailing
right brackets. This turns out to be because json_agg_finalfn() attaches
the final right bracket, and was doing so by modifying the aggregate state
in-place. That's verboten, though unfortunately it seems there's no way
for nodeAgg.c to check for such mistakes.
Fix that back to 9.3 where the broken code was introduced. In 9.4 and
HEAD, likewise fix json_object_agg(), which had copied the erroneous logic.
Make some cosmetic cleanups as well.

We were not checking to see if the supplied dscale was valid for the given
digit array when receiving binary-format numeric values. While dscale can
validly be more than the number of nonzero fractional digits, it shouldn't
be less; that case causes fractional digits to be hidden on display even
though they're there and participate in arithmetic.
Bug #12053 from Tommaso Sala indicates that there's at least one broken
client library out there that sometimes supplies an incorrect dscale value,
leading to strange behavior. This suggests that simply throwing an error
might not be the best response; it would lead to failures in applications
that might seem to be working fine today. What seems the least risky fix
is to truncate away any digits that would be hidden by dscale. This
preserves the existing behavior in terms of what will be printed for the
transmitted value, while preventing subsequent arithmetic from producing
results inconsistent with that.
In passing, throw a specific error for the case of dscale being outside
the range that will fit into a numeric's header. Before you got "value
overflows numeric format", which is a bit misleading.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

We expose a function IsValidJsonNumber that internally calls the lexer
for json numbers. That allows us to use the same test everywhere,
instead of inventing a broken test for hstore conversions. The new
function is also used in datum_to_json, replacing the code that is now
moved to the new function.
Backpatch to 9.3 where hstore_to_json_loose was introduced.

Coverity complained that the "else" added to fillPGconn() was unreachable,
which it was. Remove the dead code. In passing, rearrange the tests so as
not to bother trying to fetch values for options that can't be assigned.
Pre-9.3 did not have that issue, but it did have a "return" that should be
"goto oom_error" to ensure that a suitable error message gets filled in.
