Two functions multirange_range_overlaps_bsearch_comparison() and
multirange_range_contains_bsearch_comparison() contain bugs of returning -1
instead of 1.  This commit fixes these bugs and adds corresponding regression
tests.
We have operators for checking if the multirange contains a range but don't
have the opposite.  This commit improves completeness of the operator set by
adding two new operators: @> (anyrange,anymultirange) and
<@(anymultirange,anyrange).

Catversion is bumped.
There is a set of *_internal() functions exposed in
include/utils/multirangetypes.h.  This commit improves the signatures of these
functions in two ways.
 * Add const qualifies where applicable.
 * Replace multirange typecache argument with range typecache argument.
   Multirange typecache was used solely to find the range typecache.  At the
   same time, range typecache is easier for the caller to find.
6df7a96 has introduced a set of operators between ranges and multiranges.
Existing GiST indexes for ranges could easily support majority of them.
This commit adds support for new operators to the existing range GiST indexes.
New operators resides the same strategy numbers as existing ones.  Appropriate
check function is determined using the subtype.

Catversion is bumped.
When the postmaster sends SIGQUIT to its children, there's no real
need for all the children to log that fact; the postmaster already
made a log entry about it, so adding perhaps dozens or hundreds of
child-process log entries adds nothing of value.  So, let's introduce
a new ereport level to specify "WARNING, but never send to log" and
use that for these messages.

Such a change wouldn't have been desirable before commit 7e784d1,
because if someone manually SIGQUIT's a backend, we *do* want to log
that.  But now we can tell the difference between a signal that was
issued by the postmaster and one that was not with reasonable
certainty.

While we're here, also clear error_context_stack before ereport'ing,
to prevent error callbacks from being invoked in the signal-handler
context.  This should reduce the odds of getting hung up while trying
to notify the client.

Per a suggestion from Andres Freund.

Addition of multirange info to tables 8.27 and 65.1 made them start
throwing "exceed the available area" warnings in PDF docs builds.

For 8.27, twiddling the existing column width hints was enough to
fix this.  For 65.1, I twiddled the widths a little, but to really
fix it I had to insert a space after each comma in the table, to
allow a line break to occur there.  (This seemed easier to read
and maintain than the alternative of inserting &zwsp; entities.)

Per buildfarm.
Those two modules included references to libpq's source path, without
using anything from libpq.  Some copy-pastos done when each module was
created are likely at the origin of those useless references (aecf5ee
for old_snapshot, fe59e56 for adminpack).

This suffices for testing v12 -> v13; some other version pairs need more

Commit 1ed6b89 eliminated support for
them, so drop them from regression databases before upgrading.  This is

This adds six methods to the output plugin API, adding support for
streaming changes of two-phase transactions at prepare time.

* begin_prepare
* filter_prepare
* prepare
* commit_prepared
* rollback_prepared
* stream_prepare

Most of this is a simple extension of the existing methods, with the
semantic difference that the transaction is not yet committed and maybe
aborted later.

Until now two-phase transactions were translated into regular transactions
on the subscriber, and the GID was not forwarded to it. None of the
two-phase commands were communicated to the subscriber.

This patch provides the infrastructure for logical decoding plugins to be
informed of two-phase commands Like PREPARE TRANSACTION, COMMIT PREPARED
and ROLLBACK PREPARED commands with the corresponding GID.

This also extends the 'test_decoding' plugin, implementing these new
methods.

This commit simply adds these new APIs and the upcoming patch to "allow
the decoding at prepare time in ReorderBuffer" will use these APIs.

IF NOT EXISTS was ignored when specified in an EXPLAIN query for CREATE
MATERIALIZED VIEW or CREATE TABLE AS.  Hence, if this clause was
specified, the caller would get a failure if the relation already
exists instead of a success with a NOTICE message.

This commit makes the behavior of IF NOT EXISTS in EXPLAIN consistent
with the non-EXPLAIN'd DDL queries, preventing a failure with IF NOT
EXISTS if the relation to-be-created already exists.  The skip is done
before the SELECT query used for the relation is planned or executed,
and a "dummy" plan is generated instead depending on the format used by
EXPLAIN.

secure_open_gssapi() installed the krb_server_keyfile setting as
KRB5_KTNAME unconditionally, so long as it's not empty.  However,
pg_GSS_recvauth() only installed it if KRB5_KTNAME wasn't set already,
leading to a troubling inconsistency: in theory, clients could see
different sets of server principal names depending on whether they
use GSSAPI encryption.  Always using krb_server_keyfile seems like
the right thing, so make both places do that.  Also fix up
secure_open_gssapi()'s lack of a check for setenv() failure ---
it's unlikely, surely, but security-critical actions are no place
to be sloppy.

Also improve the associated documentation.

This patch does nothing about secure_open_gssapi()'s use of setenv(),
and indeed causes pg_GSS_recvauth() to use it too.  That's nominally
against project portability rules, but since this code is only built
with --with-gssapi, I do not feel a need to do something about this
in the back branches.  A fix will be forthcoming for HEAD though.

Back-patch to v12 where GSSAPI encryption was introduced.  The
dubious behavior in pg_GSS_recvauth() goes back further, but it
didn't have anything to be inconsistent with, so let it be.

Attempt to get selectivity estimation for @> (anymultirange, anyrange) operator
caused an error in buildfarm, because this operator was missed in switch()
of calc_hist_selectivity().  Fix that and also make regression tests reliably
check that selectivity estimation for (multi)ranges doesn't fall.  Previously,
whether we test selectivity estimation for (multi)ranges depended on
whether autovacuum managed to gather concurrently to the test.

Since at least 2001 we've used putenv() and avoided setenv(), on the
grounds that the latter was unportable and not in POSIX.  However,
POSIX added it that same year, and by now the situation has reversed:
setenv() is probably more portable than putenv(), since POSIX now
treats the latter as not being a core function.  And setenv() has
cleaner semantics too.  So, let's reverse that old policy.

This commit adds a simple src/port/ implementation of setenv() for
any stragglers (we have one in the buildfarm, but I'd not be surprised
if that code is never used in the field).  More importantly, extend
win32env.c to also support setenv().  Then, replace usages of putenv()
with setenv(), and get rid of some ad-hoc implementations of setenv()
wannabees.

Also, adjust our src/port/ implementation of unsetenv() to follow the
POSIX spec that it returns an error indicator, rather than returning
void as per the ancient BSD convention.  I don't feel a need to make
all the call sites check for errors, but the portability stub ought
to match real-world practice.

Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16797-f264b0b980b53b8b@postgresql.org
The logic for determining the latest removed XID for the purposes of
generating recovery conflicts in REDO routines was subtly broken.  It
failed to follow links from HOT chains, and so failed to consider all
relevant heap tuple headers in some cases.

To fix, expand the loop that deals with LP_REDIRECT line pointers to
also deal with HOT chains.  The new version of the loop is loosely based
on a similar loop from heap_prune_chain().

The impact of this bug is probably quite limited, since the horizon code
necessarily deals with heap tuples that are pointed to by LP_DEAD-set
index tuples.  The process of setting LP_DEAD index tuples (e.g. within
the kill_prior_tuple mechanism) is highly correlated with opportunistic
pruning of pointed-to heap tuples.  Plus the question of generating a
recovery conflict usually comes up some time after index tuple LP_DEAD
bits were initially set, unlike heap pruning, where a latestRemovedXid
is generated at the point of the pruning operation (heap pruning has no
deferred "would-be page split" style processing that produces conflicts
lazily).

Only backpatch to Postgres 12, the first version where this logic runs
during original execution (following commit 558a916).  The index
latestRemovedXid mechanism has had the same bug since it first appeared
over 10 years ago (in commit a760893), but backpatching to all
supported versions now seems like a bad idea on balance.  Running the
new improved code during recovery seems risky, especially given the lack
of complaints from the field.

This patch allows PREPARE-time decoding of two-phase transactions (if the
output plugin supports this capability), in which case the transactions
are replayed at PREPARE and then committed later when COMMIT PREPARED
arrives.

Now that we decode the changes before the commit, the concurrent aborts
may cause failures when the output plugin consults catalogs (both system
and user-defined).

We detect such failures with a special sqlerrcode
ERRCODE_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK introduced by commit 7259736 and stop
decoding the remaining changes. Then we rollback the changes when rollback
prepared is encountered.

This patch essentially allows gram.y to implement a family of related
syntax trees, rather than necessarily always parsing a list of SQL
statements.  raw_parser() gains a new argument, enum RawParseMode,
to say what to do.  As proof of concept, add a mode that just parses
a TypeName without any other decoration, and use that to greatly
simplify typeStringToTypeName().

In addition, invent a new SPI entry point SPI_prepare_extended() to
allow SPI users (particularly plpgsql) to get at this new functionality.
In hopes of making this the last variant of SPI_prepare(), set up its
additional arguments as a struct rather than direct arguments, and
promise that future additions to the struct can default to zero.
SPI_prepare_cursor() and SPI_prepare_params() can perhaps go away at
some point.

Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4165684.1607707277@sss.pgh.pa.us
Invent new RawParseModes that allow the core grammar to handle
pl/pgsql expressions and assignments directly, and thereby get rid
of a lot of hackery in pl/pgsql's parser.  This moves a good deal
of knowledge about pl/pgsql into the core code: notably, we have to
invent a CoercionContext that matches pl/pgsql's (rather dubious)
historical behavior for assignment coercions.  That's getting away
from the original idea of pl/pgsql as an arm's-length extension of
the core, but really we crossed that bridge a long time ago.

The main advantage of doing this is that we can now use the core
parser to generate FieldStore and/or SubscriptingRef nodes to handle
assignments to pl/pgsql variables that are records or arrays.  That
fixes a number of cases that had never been implemented in pl/pgsql
assignment, such as nested records and array slicing, and it allows
pl/pgsql assignment to support the datatype-specific subscripting
behaviors introduced in commit c7aba7c.

There are cosmetic benefits too: when a syntax error occurs in a
pl/pgsql expression, the error report no longer includes the confusing
"SELECT" keyword that used to get prefixed to the expression text.
Also, there seem to be some small speed gains.

Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4165684.1607707277@sss.pgh.pa.us
In the wake of the previous commit, we don't really need this anymore,
since array assignment is primarily handled by the core code.

The only way that that code could still be reached is that a GET
DIAGNOSTICS target variable could be an array element.  But that
doesn't seem like a particularly essential feature.  I'd added it
in commit 55caaae, but just because it was easy not because
anyone had actually asked for it.  Hence, revert that patch and
then remove the now-unreachable stuff.  (If we really had to,
we could probably reimplement GET DIAGNOSTICS using the new
assignment machinery; but the cost/benefit ratio looks very poor,
and it'd likely be a bit slower.)

Note that PLPGSQL_DTYPE_RECFIELD remains.  It's possible that we
could get rid of that too, but maintaining the existing behaviors
for RECORD-type variables seems like it might be difficult.  Since
there's not any functional limitation in those code paths as there
was in the ARRAYELEM code, I've not pursued the idea.

Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4165684.1607707277@sss.pgh.pa.us
Performance issues with the preceding patch to re-implement array
element assignment within pl/pgsql led me to realize that the read/write
parameter mechanism is misdesigned.  Instead of requiring the assignment
source expression to be such that *all* its references to the target
variable could be passed as R/W, we really want to identify *one*
reference to the target variable to be passed as R/W, allowing any other
ones to be passed read/only as they would be by default.  As long as the
R/W reference is a direct argument to the top-level (hence last to be
executed) function in the expression, there is no harm in R/O references
being passed to other lower parts of the expression.  Nor is there any
use-case for more than one argument of the top-level function being R/W.

Hence, rewrite that logic to identify one single Param that references
the target variable, and make only that Param pass a read/write
reference, not any other Params referencing the target variable.

If the substring start index and length overflow when added together,
substring() misbehaved, either throwing a bogus "negative substring
length" error on a case that should succeed, or failing to complain that
a negative length is negative (and instead returning the whole string,
in most cases).  Unsurprisingly, the text, bytea, and bit variants of
the function all had this issue.  Rearrange the logic to ensure that
negative lengths are always rejected, and add an overflow check to
handle the other case.

Also install similar guards into detoast_attr_slice() (nee
heap_tuple_untoast_attr_slice()), since it's far from clear that
no other code paths leading to that function could pass it values
that would overflow.

Given a permanent relation rewritten in the current transaction, the

TABLESPACE is probably the only rewrite mechanism capable of exposing
this bug.  REINDEX sets indcheckxmin, avoiding the problem.  CLUSTER has
zeroed page LSNs since before old_snapshot_threshold existed, so
old_snapshot_threshold has never cooperated with it.  ALTER TABLE

The SQL standard allows a GRANTED BY clause on GRANT and
REVOKE (privilege) statements that can specify CURRENT_USER or
CURRENT_ROLE.  In PostgreSQL, both of these are the default behavior.
Since we already have all the parsing support for this for the
GRANT (role) statement, we might as well add basic support for this
for the privilege variant as well.  This allows us to check off SQL
feature T332.  In the future, perhaps more interesting things could be
done with this, too.

produces 'pg <-> class <-> pg' tsquery, which matches to

Another effect of this commit is that complex morph word positions now need to
match the tsvector even if there is no surrounding OP_PHRASE.  This behavior

Subscripting for jsonb does not support slices, does not have a limit for the
number of subscripts, and an assignment expects a replace value to have jsonb
type.  There is also one functional difference between assignment via
subscripting and assignment via jsonb_set().  When an original jsonb container
is NULL, the subscripting replaces it with an empty jsonb and proceeds with
an assignment.

For the sake of code reuse, we rearrange some parts of jsonb functionality
to allow the usage of the same functions for jsonb_set and assign subscripting
operation.

Both flags are used only in jsonb subscripting assignment.

On machines where sizeof(Datum) > sizeof(Oid) (that is, any 64-bit
platform), the previous coding would compute a misaligned
workspace->index pointer if nupper is odd.  Architectures where
misaligned access is a hard no-no would then fail.  This appears
to explain why thorntail is unhappy but other buildfarm members
are not.
This is a replacement for the existing --with-openssl, extending the
logic to make easier the addition of new SSL libraries.  The grammar is
chosen to be similar to --with-uuid, where multiple values can be
chosen, with "openssl" as the only supported value for now.

The original switch, --with-openssl, is kept for compatibility.

Current code allocates memory for JsonbValue, but it could be placed locally.
This adds the SQL standard feature that adds the SEARCH and CYCLE
clauses to recursive queries to be able to do produce breadth- or
depth-first search orders and detect cycles.  These clauses can be
rewritten into queries using existing syntax, and that is what this
patch does in the rewriter.

It turns out that the calculation of [Merge]AppendPath.partitioned_rels
in allpaths.c is faulty and sometimes omits relevant non-leaf partitions,
allowing an assertion added by commit a929e17 to trigger.  Rather
than fix that, it seems better to get rid of those fields altogether.
We don't really need the info until create_plan time, and calculating
it once for the selected plan should be cheaper than calculating it
for each append path we consider.

As a first step, teach make_partition_pruneinfo to collect the relevant
partitioned tables for itself.  It's not hard to do so by traversing
from child tables up to parents using the AppendRelInfo links.

While here, make some minor stylistic improvements; mainly, don't use
the "Relids" alias for bitmapsets that are not identities of any
relation considered by the planner.  Try to document the logic better,
too.

No backpatch, as there does not seem to be a live problem before
a929e17.  Also no new regression test; the code where the bug
was will be gone at the end of this patch series, so it seems a
bit pointless to memorialize the issue.

This patch undoes a couple of very minor uses of the partitioned_rels
values.

createplan.c was testing for nil-ness to optimize away the preparatory
work for make_partition_pruneinfo().  That is worth doing if the check
is nigh free, but it's not worth going to any great lengths to avoid.

create_append_path() was testing for nil-ness as part of deciding how
to set up ParamPathInfo for an AppendPath.  I replaced that with a
check for the appendrel's parent rel being partitioned.  That's not
quite the same thing but should cover most cases.  If we note any
interesting loss of optimizations, we can dumb this down to just
always use the more expensive method when the parent is a baserel.

Writing unnecessary '.*' at start and end of a POSIX regex doesn't
do much except confuse the reader about whether that might be
necessary after all.  Make the examples in table 9.16 a tad more
realistic, and try to turn the next group of examples into something
self-contained.

The prototype calls the second argument of
pgstat_progress_update_multi_param() "index", and some callers name
their local variable that way.  But when the surrounding code deals
with index relations, this is confusing, and in at least one case
shadowed another variable that is referring to an index relation.
Adjust those call sites to have clearer local variable naming, similar
to existing callers in indexcmds.c.
The ExecutorEnd hook is invoked in a context that could be quite
long-lived, not the executor's own per-query context as I think
we were sort of assuming.  Thus, any cruft generated while producing
the EXPLAIN output could accumulate over multiple queries.  This can
result in spectacular leakage if log_nested_statements is on, and
even without that I'm surprised nobody complained before.

To fix, just switch into the executor's context so that anything we
allocate will be released when standard_ExecutorEnd frees the executor
state.  We might as well nuke the code's retail pfree of the explain
output string, too; that's laughably inadequate to the need.

Japin Li, per report from Jeff Janes.  This bug is old, so

Not all OID-reference columns that can contain zeroes (indicating

for example, consistently write "zero" not "0" for these cases.

This follows in the spirit of commit dfb75e4, which created primary
key and uniqueness constraints to improve the visibility of constraints
imposed on the system catalogs.  While our catalogs contain many
foreign-key-like relationships, they don't quite follow SQL semantics,
in that the convention for an omitted reference is to write zero not
NULL.  Plus, we have some cases in which there are arrays each of whose
elements is supposed to be an FK reference; SQL has no way to model that.
So we can't create actual foreign key constraints to describe the
situation.  Nonetheless, we can collect and use knowledge about these
relationships.

This patch therefore adds annotations to the catalog header files to
declare foreign-key relationships.  (The BKI_LOOKUP annotations cover
simple cases, but we weren't previously distinguishing which such
columns are allowed to contain zeroes; we also need new markings for
multi-column FK references.)  Then, Catalog.pm and genbki.pl are
taught to collect this information into a table in a new generated
header "system_fk_info.h".  The only user of that at the moment is
a new SQL function pg_get_catalog_foreign_keys(), which exposes the
table to SQL.  The oidjoins regression test is rewritten to use
pg_get_catalog_foreign_keys() to find out which columns to check.
Aside from removing the need for manual maintenance of that test
script, this allows it to cover numerous relationships that were not
checked by the old implementation based on findoidjoins.  (As of this
commit, 217 relationships are checked by the test, versus 181 before.)

Generation expressions of generated columns are always inherited, so
there is no need to set them separately in child tables, and there is
no syntax to do so either.  The code previously used the code paths
for the handling of default values, for which different rules apply;
in particular it might want to set a default value explicitly for an
inherited column.  This resulted in unrestorable dumps.  For generated
columns, just skip them in inherited tables.

Now that commit 62f3409 attached BKI_LOOKUP annotation to all the
namespace and role OID columns in the catalogs, there's no real reason
to have the magic PGNSP and PGUID symbols.  Get rid of them in favor
of implementing those lookups according to genbki.pl's normal pattern.

This means that in the catalog headers, BKI_DEFAULT(PGNSP) becomes
BKI_DEFAULT(pg_catalog), which seems a lot more transparent.
BKI_DEFAULT(PGUID) becomes BKI_DEFAULT(POSTGRES), which is perhaps
less so; but you can look into pg_authid.dat to discover that
POSTGRES is the nonce name for the bootstrap superuser.

This change also means that if we ever need cross-references in the
initial catalog data to any of the other built-in roles besides
POSTGRES, or to some other built-in schema besides pg_catalog,
we can just do it.

No catversion bump here, as there's no actual change in the contents
of postgres.bki.

The logic for converting the shell-glob-like syntax supported by
utilities like psql and pg_dump to regular expression is
extracted into a new function patternToSQLRegex. The existing
function processSQLNamePattern now uses this function as a
subroutine.

patternToSQLRegex is a little more general than what is required
by processSQLNamePattern. That function is only interested in
patterns that can have up to 2 parts, a schema and a relation;
but patternToSQLRegex can limit the maximum number of parts to
between 1 and 3, so that patterns can look like either
"database.schema.relation", "schema.relation", or "relation"
depending on how it's invoked and what the user specifies.

processSQLNamePattern only passes two buffers, so works exactly
the same as before, always interpreting the pattern as either
a "schema.relation" pattern or a "relation" pattern. But,
future callers can use this function in other ways.
