The standard way to check for list emptiness is to compare the
List pointer to NIL; our list code goes out of its way to ensure
that that is the only representation of an empty list. (An
acceptable alternative is a plain boolean test for non-null
pointer, but explicit mention of NIL is usually preferable.)
Various places didn't get that memo and expressed the condition
with list_length(), which might not be so bad except that there
were such a variety of ways to check it exactly: equal to zero,
less than or equal to zero, less than one, yadda yadda. In the
name of code readability, let's standardize all those spellings
as "list == NIL" or "list != NIL". (There's probably some
microscopic efficiency gain too, though few of these look to be
at all performance-critical.)
A very small number of cases were left as-is because they seemed
more consistent with other adjacent list_length tests that way.

The assert, introduced by 9f1cf97bb5, is intended to check if the prefix
is terminated by a \0 byte, but it has two flaws. Firstly, prefix_size
includes the \0 byte, so prefix[prefix_size] points to the byte after
the null byte. Secondly, the check ensures the byte is not equal \0,
while it should be checking the opposite.

The current publisher code checks if UPDATE or DELETE can be executed with
the replica identity of the table even if it's a partitioned table. We can
skip checking the replica identity for partitioned tables because the

There's a convention that externally-visible libpq functions should
check for a NULL PGconn pointer, and fail gracefully instead of
crashing. PQflush() and PQisnonblocking() didn't get that memo
though. Also add a similar check to PQdefaultSSLKeyPassHook_OpenSSL;
while it's not clear that ordinary usage could reach that with a
null conn pointer, it's cheap enough to check, so let's be consistent.

Since WRITE_NODE_FIELD() output always starts with a space, we don't
need to go out of our way to print another space right before it.
This change is only for visual appearance; the tokenizer on the

When enlarging the work buffers of a VarStringSortSupport object,
varstrfastcmp_locale was careful to keep them in the ssup_cxt
memory context; but varstr_abbrev_convert just used palloc().
The latter creates a hazard that the buffers could be freed out
from under the VarStringSortSupport object, resulting in stomping
on whatever gets allocated in that memory later.
In practice, because we only use this code for ICU collations
(cf. 3df9c374e), the problem is confined to use of ICU collations.
I believe it may have been unreachable before the introduction
of incremental sort, too, as traditional sorting usually just
uses one context for the duration of the sort.
We could fix this by making the broken stanzas in varstr_abbrev_convert
match the non-broken ones in varstrfastcmp_locale. However, it seems
like a better idea to dodge the issue altogether by replacing the
pfree-and-allocate-anew coding with repalloc, which automatically
preserves the chunk's memory context. This fix does add a few cycles
because repalloc will copy the chunk's content, which the existing
coding assumes is useless. However, we don't expect that these buffer
enlargement operations are performance-critical. Besides that, it's
far from obvious that copying the buffer contents isn't required, since
these stanzas make no effort to mark the buffers invalid by resetting
last_returned, cache_blob, etc. That seems to be safe upon examination,
but it's fragile and could easily get broken in future, which wouldn't
get revealed in testing with short-to-moderate-size strings.
Per bug #17584 from James Inform. Whether or not the issue is
reachable in the older branches, this code has been broken on its
own terms from its introduction, so patch all the way back.

It's possible to reach this case when work_mem is very small and tupsize
is (relatively) very large. In that case ExecChooseHashTableSize would
get an assertion failure, or with asserts off it'd compute nbuckets = 0,
which'd likely cause misbehavior later (I've not checked). To fix,
clamp the number of buckets to be at least 1.
This is due to faulty conversion of old my_log2() coding in 28d936031.

Since HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS is now defined unconditionally, remove the macro
and drop a small amount of dead code.
The last known systems not to have them (as far as I know at least) were
QNX, which we de-supported years ago, and Windows, which now has them.
If a new OS ever shows up with the POSIX sockets API but without working
AF_UNIX, it'll presumably still be able to compile the code, and fail at
runtime with an unsupported address family error. We might want to
consider adding a HINT that you should turn off the option to use it if
your network stack doesn't support it at that point, but it doesn't seem
worth making the relevant code conditional at compile time.
Also adjust a couple of places in the docs and comments that referred to
builds without Unix-domain sockets, since there aren't any. Windows
still gets a special mention in those places, though, because we don't
try to use them by default there yet.

Most parts of the parser can expect that the stack overflow check
in transformExprRecurse() will trigger before things get desperate.
However, transformFromClauseItem() can recurse directly to self

Assume that we can use LWARX hint flags and the LWSYNC instruction
on any PPC machine. The check on the assembler's behavior was only
needed for Apple's old assembler, which is no longer of interest
now that we've de-supported all PPC-era versions of macOS (thanks
to them not having clock_gettime()). Also, given an up-to-date
assembler these instructions work even on Apple's old hardware.
It seems quite unlikely that anyone would be interested in running
current Postgres on PPC hardware that's so old as to not have
these instructions.
Hence, rip out associated configure test and manual configuration
options, and just use the modernized instructions all the time.
Also, update atomics/arch-ppc.h to use these instructions as well.
(It was already using LWSYNC unconditionally in another place,
providing further proof that nobody is using PG on hardware old
enough to have a problem with that.)

Mistake introduced by 639a86e36aaecb84faaf941dcd0b183ba0aba9e9.
|
|
Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION
records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that
information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart,
if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction
that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the
snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong
snapshot.
To fix this problem, this change adds the list of transaction IDs and
sub-transaction IDs, that have modified catalogs and are running during
snapshot serialization, to the serialized snapshot. After restart or
otherwise, when we restore from such a serialized snapshot, the
corresponding list is restored in memory. Now, when decoding a COMMIT
record, we check both the list and the ReorderBuffer to see if the
transaction has modified catalogs.
Since this adds additional information to the serialized snapshot, we
cannot backpatch it. For back branches, we took another approach.
We remember the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS
record after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark
the transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of
initial running transactions and its commit record has
XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. This doesn't require any file format changes but
the transaction will end up being added to the snapshot even if it has
only relcache invalidations. But that won't be a problem since we use
snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs.
This commit bumps SNAPBUILD_VERSION because of a change in SnapBuild.

As reported by Yura Sokolov, scanning the snapshot->xip array has
noticeable impact on scalability when there are a large number of
concurrent writers. Use the optimized (on x86-64) routine from b6ef16756
to speed up searches through the [sub]xip arrays. One benchmark showed
a 5% increase in transaction throughput with 128 concurrent writers,
and a 50% increase in a pathological case of 1024 writers. While a hash
table would have scaled even better, it was ultimately rejected because
of concerns around code complexity and memory allocation. Credit to Andres
Freund for the idea to optimize linear search using SIMD instructions.

fmgr_sql must make expanded-datum arguments read-only, because
it's possible that the function body will pass the argument to
more than one callee function. If one of those functions takes
the datum's R/W property as license to scribble on it, then later
callees will see an unexpected value, leading to wrong answers.
From a performance standpoint, it'd be nice to skip this in the
common case that the argument value is passed to only one callee.
However, detecting that seems fairly hard, and certainly not
something that I care to attempt in a back-patched bug fix.

This commit addresses a few things around GUCs:
- The TCP-related parameters (the four tcp_keepalives_* and
client_connection_check_interval are listed in postgresql.conf.sample in
a subsection called "TCP settings" of "CONNECTIONS AND AUTHENTICATION",
but they did not have their own group name in guc.c.
- enable_group_by_reordering, stats_fetch_consistency and
recovery_prefetch had an inconsistent description, missing a dot at the
end.
- In postgresql.conf.sample, "Process title" should not have a section
of its own, but it should be a subsection of "REPORTING AND LOGGING".
This impacts the contents of pg_settings, which could be seen as a
compatibility break, so no backpatch is done. This is similar to the
cleanup done in a55a984.

Previously, if an extension script did CREATE OR REPLACE and there was
an existing object not belonging to the extension, it would overwrite
the object and adopt it into the extension. This is problematic, first
because the overwrite is probably unintentional, and second because we
didn't change the object's ownership. Thus a hostile user could create
an object in advance of an expected CREATE EXTENSION command, and would
then have ownership rights on an extension object, which could be
modified for trojan-horse-type attacks.
Hence, forbid CREATE OR REPLACE of an existing object unless it already
belongs to the extension. (Note that we've always forbidden replacing
an object that belongs to some other extension; only the behavior for
