GetPageWithFreeSpace() callers assume the returned block exists in the
main fork, failing with "could not read block" errors if that doesn't
hold. Make that assumption reliable now. It hadn't been guaranteed,
due to the weak WAL and data ordering of participating components. Most
operations on the fsm fork are not WAL-logged. Relation extension is
not WAL-logged. Hence, an fsm-fork block on disk can reference a
main-fork block that no WAL record has initialized. That could happen
after an OS crash, a replica promote, or a PITR restore. wal_log_hints
makes the trouble easier to hit; a replica promote or PITR ending just
after a relevant fsm-fork FPI_FOR_HINT may yield this broken state. The
v16 RelationAddBlocks() mechanism also makes the trouble easier to hit,
since it bulk-extends even without extension lock waiters. Commit
917dc7d2393ce680dea7a59418be9ff341df3c14 stopped trouble around
truncation, but vectors involving PageIsNew() pages remained.
This implementation adds a RelationGetNumberOfBlocks() call when the
cached relation size doesn't confirm a block exists. We've been unable
to identify a benchmark that slows materially, but this may show up as
additional time in lseek(). An alternative without that overhead would
be a new ReadBufferMode such that ReadBufferExtended() returns NULL
after a 0-byte read, with all other errors handled normally. However,
each GetFreeIndexPage() caller would then need code for the return-NULL
case. Back-patch to v14, due to earlier versions not caching relation
size and the absence of a pre-v16 problem report.

Up to now, read_sql_construct() has collected all the source text from
the statement or expression's initial token up to the character just
before the "until" token. It normally tries to strip trailing
whitespace from that, largely for neatness. If there was a "-- text"
comment after the expression, this resulted in removing the newline
that terminates the comment, which creates a hazard if we try to paste
the collected text into a larger SQL construct without inserting a
newline after it. In particular this caused our handling of CASE
constructs to fail if there's a comment after a WHEN expression.
Commit 4adead1d2 noticed a similar problem with cursor arguments,
and worked around it through the rather crude hack of suppressing
the whitespace-trimming behavior for those. Rather than do that
and leave the hazard open for future hackers to trip over, let's
fix it properly. pl_scanner.c already has enough infrastructure
to report the end location of the expression's last token, so
we can copy up to that location and never collect any trailing
whitespace or comment to begin with.

If the OpenLDAP installation directory is not found, set $setup to 0
so that the LDAP tests are skipped. The macOS checks were already
doing that, but the checks on other OS's were not. While we're at it,
improve the error message when the tests are skipped, to specify
whether the OS is supported at all, or if we just didn't find the

This was accidentally "working" without this, i.e. we were skipping
the tests if the OpenLDAP installation was not found, because of a bug
in the LdapServer test module: the END block clobbered the exit code
so if the script die()s before running the first subtest, the whole
test script was marked as SKIPped. The next commit will fix that bug,
but we need to fix the setup code first.

ecpg wants to emit a warning if it parses a SQL construct that the
backend can parse but will immediately throw a FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED
error for. The way it was testing for this was to see if the string
ERRCODE_FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED appeared anywhere in the gram.y code.
This is, of course, not nearly good enough, as there are plenty of
rules in gram.y that throw that error only conditionally. There was
a hack dating to 2008 to suppress the warning in one rule that
doesn't even exist anymore, but nothing for other cases we've created
since then. End result was that you could get "unsupported feature
will be passed to server" warnings while compiling perfectly good SQL
code in ecpg. Somehow we'd not heard complaints about this, but
it was exposed by the recent addition of an ecpg test for a SQL/JSON
construct.
To fix, suppress the warning if the rule contains any "if" statement.
Manual comparison of gram.y with the generated preproc.y file shows
that the warning is now emitted only in rules where it's sensible.

If temp tables have dependencies (such as sequences) then it's
possible for autovacuum's cleanup of orphan temp tables to deadlock
against an incoming backend that's trying to clean out the temp
namespace for its own use. That can happen because RemoveTempRelations'
performDeletion call can visit objects within the namespace in
an order different from the order in which a per-table deletion
will visit them.
To fix, observe that performDeletion will begin by taking an exclusive
lock on the temp namespace (even though it won't actually delete it).
So, if we can get a shared lock on the namespace, we can be sure we're
not running concurrently with RemoveTempRelations, while also not
conflicting with ordinary use of the namespace. This requires
introducing a conditional version of LockDatabaseObject, but that's no
big deal. (It's surprising we've got along without that this long.)

When a plain aggregate is used as a window function, and the window
frame start is specified as UNBOUNDED PRECEDING, the frame's head
cannot move so we do not need to use moving-aggregate mode. The check
for that was put into initialize_peragg(), failing to notice that
ExecInitWindowAgg() calls that function before it's filled in
winstate->frameOptions. Since makeNode() would have zeroed the field,
this didn't provoke uninitialized-value complaints, nor would the

Still, it's wrong, so move the initialization of

The musl dynamic linker saves a pointer to the process' environment

the environment to make more room for ps status strings, we clobber
that value and thereby prevent libraries from being found via
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which breaks the use of a temporary installation
for testing purposes. To fix, stop collecting usable space for
ps status if we notice that the variable we are about to clobber
is LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This will result in some reduction in how long
the ps status can be, but it's only likely to occur in temporary
test contexts, so it doesn't seem like a big problem. In any case,
we don't have to do it if we see we are on glibc, which surely is

Since 82a4edabd27 we can bulk extend relations. The bulk relation extension
logic has a heuristic component. Normally the heurstic does not trigger in the
occasionally-failing test case, as the relation is only extended once. But
with very small shared_buffers the limits for the number of buffers pinned at
once prevent the extension from happening at once. With the second "bulk"
extension, the heuristic kicks in, and the relation ends up one block bigger.
That's ok from a correctness perspective, but changes the results of the test
query due to one additional block.
We discussed a few more expansive fixes, but for now have decided to avoid
this by making the table a bit smaller.

Up to now, all of the "catcache list" objects within a catalog cache
were just chained together on a single dlist, requiring O(N) time to
search. Remarkably, we've not had serious performance problems with
that so far; but we got a complaint of a bad performance regression
from v15 in a case with a large number of roles in the system, which
traced down to O(N^2) total time when we probed N catcache lists.
Replace that data structure with a hashtable having an enlargeable
number of dlists, in an exactly parallel way to the data structure
we've used for years for the plain CatCTup cache members. The extra
cost of maintaining a hash table seems negligible, since we were
already computing a hash value for list searches.
Normally this'd be HEAD-only material, but in view of the performance
regression it seems advisable to back-patch into v16. In the v16

Commit a3c7a993d fixed some cases involving target columns that are
arrays or composites by applying transformAssignedExpr to the VALUES
entries, and then stripping off any assignment ArrayRefs or
FieldStores that the transformation added. But I forgot about domains
over arrays or composites :-(. Such cases would either fail with
surprising complaints about mismatched datatypes, or insert unexpected
coercions that could lead to odd results. To fix, extend the
stripping logic to get rid of CoerceToDomain if it's atop an ArrayRef
or FieldStore.
While poking at this, I realized that there's a poorly documented and
not-at-all-tested behavior nearby: we coerce each VALUES column to
the domain type separately, and rely on the rewriter to merge those
operations so that the domain constraints are checked only once.
If that merging did not happen, it's entirely possible that we'd get
unexpected domain constraint failures due to checking a
partially-updated container value. There's no bug there, but while

There is a very ancient hack in check_sql_fn_retval that allows a
single SELECT targetlist entry of composite type to be taken as
supplying all the output columns of a function returning composite.
(This is grotty and fundamentally ambiguous, but it's really hard
to do nested composite-returning functions without it.)
As far as I know, that doesn't cause any problems in ordinary
functions. It's disastrous for procedures however. All procedures
that have any output parameters are labeled with prorettype RECORD,
and the CALL code expects it will get back a record with one column
per output parameter, regardless of whether any of those parameters
is composite. Doing something else leads to an assertion failure
or core dump.
This is simple enough to fix: we just need to not apply that rule
when considering procedures. However, that requires adding another
argument to check_sql_fn_retval, which at least in principle might be
getting called by external callers. Therefore, in the back branches
convert check_sql_fn_retval into an ABI-preserving wrapper around a

Note that COMMERROR merely logged the error, it did not close the

For pass-by-reference types, the code added in 0b053e78b, which aimed to
resolve a memory leak, was overly aggressive in resetting the per-tuple
memory context which could result in pfree'd memory being accessed
resulting in failing to find previously cached results in the hash
table.
What was happening was prepare_probe_slot() was switching to the
per-tuple memory context and calling ExecEvalExpr(). ExecEvalExpr() may
have required a memory allocation. Both MemoizeHash_hash() and
MemoizeHash_equal() were aggressively resetting the per-tuple context
and after determining the hash value, the context would have gotten reset
before MemoizeHash_equal() was called. This could have resulted in
MemoizeHash_equal() looking at pfree'd memory.
This is less likely to have caused issues on a production build as some
other allocation would have had to have reused the pfree'd memory to
overwrite it. Otherwise, the original contents would have been intact.
However, this clearly caused issues on MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING builds.

In passing, add a new section for testing ORDER BY in the postgres_fdw
tests and move two existing tests which were misplaced in the WHERE
clause testing section into it.

Backpatch-through: 12, oldest supported version
In OpenSSL 3.0.0 and later, ERR_reason_error_string randomly refuses
to provide a string for error codes representing system errno values
(e.g., "No such file or directory"). There is a poorly-documented way
to extract the errno from the SSL error code in this case, so do that
and apply strerror, rather than falling back to reporting the error
code's numeric value as we were previously doing.
Problem reported by David Zhang, although this is not his proposed
patch; it's instead based on a suggestion from Heikki Linnakangas.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since any of them are likely
to be used with recent OpenSSL.
