deb99dcba7 Doc: remove long-obsolete advice about generated constraint names.
It's been twenty years since we generated constraint names that
look like "$N".  So this advice about double-quoting such names
is well past its sell-by date, and now it merely seems confusing.

69a498eb64 Reset InstallXLogFileSegmentActive after walreceiver self-initiated exit.
After commit cc2c7d65fc27e877c9f407587b0b92d46cd6dd16 added this flag,
failure to reset it caused assertion failures.  In non-assert builds, it
made the system fail to achieve the objectives listed in that commit;
chiefly, we might emit a spurious log message.  Back-patch to v15, where
that commit first appeared.

a5b0c06daa Skip WAL recycling and preallocation during archive recovery.
The previous commit addressed the chief consequences of a race condition
between InstallXLogFileSegment() and KeepFileRestoredFromArchive().  Fix
three lesser consequences.  A spurious durable_rename_excl() LOG message
remained possible.  KeepFileRestoredFromArchive() wasted the proceeds of
WAL recycling and preallocation.  Finally, XLogFileInitInternal() could
return a descriptor for a file that KeepFileRestoredFromArchive() had
already unlinked.  That felt like a recipe for future bugs.

e276b58293 Fix parse_cte.c's failure to examine sub-WITHs in DML statements.
makeDependencyGraphWalker thought that only SelectStmt nodes could
contain a WithClause.  Which was true in our original implementation
of WITH, but astonishingly we missed updating this code when we added
the ability to attach WITH to INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE (and later MERGE).
Moreover, since it was coded to deliberately block recursion to a
WithClause, even updating raw_expression_tree_walker didn't save it.

The upshot of this was that we didn't see references to outer CTE
names appearing within an inner WITH, and would neither complain about
disallowed recursion nor account for such references when sorting CTEs
into a usable order.  The lack of complaints about this is perhaps not
so surprising, because typical usage of WITH wouldn't hit either case.
Still, it's pretty broken; failing to detect recursion here leads to
assert failures or worse later on.

Fix by factoring out the processing of sub-WITHs into a new function
WalkInnerWith, and invoking that for all the statement types that
can have WITH.

b92482dc3e Relax assertion in finding correct GiST parent
Commit 28d3c2ddcf introduced an assertion that if the memorized
downlink location in the insertion stack isn't valid, the parent's
LSN should've changed too. Turns out that was too strict. In
gistFindCorrectParent(), if we walk right, we update the parent's
block number and clear its memorized 'downlinkoffnum'. That triggered
the assertion on next call to gistFindCorrectParent(), if the parent
needed to be split too. Relax the assertion, so that it's OK if
downlinkOffnum is InvalidOffsetNumber.

Backpatch to v13-, all supported versions. The assertion was added in
commit 28d3c2ddcf in v12.

186c586c37 Make dblink interruptible, via new libpqsrv APIs.
This replaces dblink's blocking libpq calls, allowing cancellation and
allowing DROP DATABASE (of a database not involved in the query).  Apart
from explicit dblink_cancel_query() calls, dblink still doesn't cancel
the remote side.  The replacement for the blocking calls consists of
new, general-purpose query execution wrappers in the libpqsrv facility.
Out-of-tree extensions should adopt these.

5a3d5c0838 Add helper library for use of libpq inside the server environment
Currently dblink and postgres_fdw don't process interrupts during connection
establishment. Besides preventing query cancellations etc, this can lead to
undetected deadlocks, as global barriers are not processed.

Libpqwalreceiver in contrast, processes interrupts during connection
establishment. The required code is not trivial, so duplicating it into
additional places does not seem like a good option.

These aforementioned undetected deadlocks are the reason for the spate of CI
test failures in the FreeBSD 'test_running' step.

For now the helper library is just a header, as it needs to be linked into
each extension using libpq, and it seems too small to be worth adding a
dedicated static library for.

The conversion to the helper are done in subsequent commits.

2c6a4f2c50 Remove unnecessary type violation in tsvectorrecv().
compareentry() is declared to work on WordEntryIN structs, but
tsvectorrecv() is using it in two places to work on WordEntry
structs.  This is almost okay, since WordEntry is the first
field of WordEntryIN.  But on machines with 8-byte pointers,
WordEntryIN will have a larger alignment spec than WordEntry,
and it's at least theoretically possible that the compiler
could generate code that depends on the larger alignment.

Given the lack of field reports, this may be just a hypothetical bug
that upsets nothing except sanitizer tools.  Or it may be real on
certain hardware but nobody's tried to use tsvectorrecv() on such
hardware.  In any case we should fix it, and the fix is trivial:
just change compareentry() so that it works on WordEntry without any
mention of WordEntryIN.  We can also get rid of the quite-useless
intermediate function WordEntryCMP.

b9ec8125d1 Remove HeapBitmapScan's skip_fetch optimization
The optimization does not take the removal of TIDs by a concurrent vacuum into
account. The concurrent vacuum can remove dead TIDs and make pages ALL_VISIBLE
while those dead TIDs are referenced in the bitmap. This can lead to a
skip_fetch scan returning too many tuples.

It likely would be possible to implement this optimization safely, but we
don't have the necessary infrastructure in place. Nor is it clear that it's
worth building that infrastructure, given how limited the skip_fetch
optimization is.

In the backbranches we just disable the optimization by always passing
need_tuples=true to table_beginscan_bm(). We can't perform API/ABI changes in
the backbranches and we want to make the change as minimal as possible.

e4440a73c7 Fix detection and handling of strchrnul() for macOS 15.4.
As of 15.4, macOS has strchrnul(), but access to it is blocked behind
a check for MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET >= 15.4.  But our does-it-link
configure check finds it, so we try to use it, and fail with the
present default deployment target (namely 15.0).  This accounts for
today's buildfarm failures on indri and sifaka.

This is the identical problem that we faced some years ago when Apple
introduced preadv and pwritev in the same way.  We solved that in
commit f014b1b9b by using AC_CHECK_DECLS instead of AC_CHECK_FUNCS
to check the functions' availability.  So do the same now for
strchrnul().  Interestingly, we already had a workaround for
"the link check doesn't agree with <string.h>" cases with glibc,
which we no longer need since only the header declaration is being
checked.

Testing this revealed that the meson version of this check has never
worked, because it failed to use "-Werror=unguarded-availability-new".
(Apparently nobody's tried to build with meson on macOS versions that
lack preadv/pwritev as standard.)  Adjust that while at it.  Also,
we had never put support for "-Werror=unguarded-availability-new"
into v13, but we need that now.

474aee3dfe Fix ARRAY_SUBLINK and ARRAY[] for int2vector and oidvector input.
If the given input_type yields valid results from both
get_element_type and get_array_type, initArrayResultAny believed the
former and treated the input as an array type.  However this is
inconsistent with what get_promoted_array_type does, leading to
situations where the output of an ARRAY() subquery is labeled with
the wrong type: it's labeled as oidvector[] but is really a 2-D
array of OID.  That at least results in strange output, and can
result in crashes if further processing such as unnest() is applied.
AFAIK this is only possible with the int2vector and oidvector
types, which are special-cased to be treated mostly as true arrays
even though they aren't quite.

Fix by switching the logic to match get_promoted_array_type by
testing get_array_type not get_element_type, and remove an Assert
thereby made pointless.  (We need not introduce a symmetrical
check for get_element_type in the other if-branch, because
initArrayResultArr will check it.)  This restores the behavior
that existed before bac27394a introduced initArrayResultAny:
the output really is int2vector[] or oidvector[].

Comparable confusion exists when an input of an ARRAY[] construct
is int2vector or oidvector: transformArrayExpr decides it's dealing
with a multidimensional array constructor, and we end up with
something that's a multidimensional OID array but is alleged to be
of type oidvector.  I have not found a crashing case here, but it's
easy to demonstrate totally-wrong results.  Adjust that code so
that what you get is an oidvector[] instead, for consistency with
ARRAY() subqueries.  (This change also makes these types work like
domains-over-arrays in this context, which seems correct.)

Letting the rewriter keep RangeTblEntry.relid when expanding a view
RTE, without making the outfuncs/readfuncs changes that went along
with that originally, is more problematic than I realized.  It causes
WRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES testing to fail because outfuncs/readfuncs
don't think relid need be saved in an RTE_SUBQUERY RTE.

There doesn't seem to be any other good route to fixing the whole-row
Var problem solved at f4e7756ef, so we just have to deal with the
consequences.  We can make the eventually-produced plan tree safe
for WRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES by clearing the relid field at the
end of planning, as was already being done for the functions field.
(The functions field is not problematic here because our abuse of it
is strictly local to the planner.)  However, there is no nice fix for
the post-rewrite WRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES test.

The solution adopted here is to remove the post-rewrite test in the
affected branches.  That's surely less than ideal, but a couple of
arguments can be made why it's not unacceptable.  First, the behavior
of outfuncs/readfuncs for parsetrees in these branches is frozen no
matter what, because of catalog stability requirements.  So we're not
testing anything that is going to change.  Second, testing
WRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES at this particular time doesn't correspond
to any direct system functionality requirement, neither rule storage
nor plan transmission.

39af32f788 Build whole-row Vars the same way during parsing and planning.
makeWholeRowVar() has different rules for constructing a
whole-row Var depending on the kind of RTE it's representing.
This turns out to be problematic because the rewriter and planner
can convert view RTEs and set-returning-function RTEs into
subquery RTEs; so a whole-row Var made during planning might
look different from one made by the parser.  In isolation this
doesn't cause any problem, but if a query contains Vars made
both ways for the same varno, there are cross-checks in the
executor that will complain.  This manifests for UPDATE, DELETE,
and MERGE queries that use whole-row table references.

To fix, we need makeWholeRowVar() to produce the same result
from an inlined RTE as it would have for the original.  For
an inlined view, we can use RangeTblEntry.relid to detect
that this had been a view RTE.  For inlined SRFs, make a
data structure definition change akin to commit 47bb9db75,
and say that we won't clear RangeTblEntry.functions until
the end of planning.  That allows makeWholeRowVar() to
repeat what it would have done with the unmodified RTE.

28a7e31d0c Preserve RangeTblEntry.relid when expanding a view RTE.
When the rewriter converts an RTE_RELATION RTE for a view into
an RTE_SUBQUERY RTE containing the view's defining query, leave
the relid field alone instead of zeroing it.  This allows the
planner to tell that the subquery came from a view rather than
having been written in-line, which is needed to support an
upcoming planner bug fix.  We cannot change the behavior of the
outfuncs/readfuncs code in released branches, so the relid field
will not survive in plans passed to parallel workers; therefore
this info should not be relied on in the executor.

This back-patches a portion of the data structure definitional
changes made in v16 and up by commit 47bb9db75.  It's being
committed separately for visibility in the commit log, but
with luck it will not actually matter to anyone.  While it's
not inconceivable that this change will break code expecting
relid to be zero in a subquery RTE, we can hope that such code
has already been adjusted to cope with v16 and up.

9b3914f181 Fix snapshot used in logical replication index lookup
The function calls GetLatestSnapshot() to acquire a fresh snapshot,
makes it active, and was meant to pass it to table_tuple_lock(), but
instead called GetLatestSnapshot() again to acquire yet another
snapshot. It was harmless because the heap AM and all other known
table AMs ignore the 'snapshot' argument anyway, but let's be tidy.

In the long run, this perhaps should be redesigned so that snapshot
was not needed in the first place. The table AM API uses TID +
snapshot as the unique identifier for the row version, which is
questionable when the row came from an index scan with a Dirty
snapshot. You might lock a different row version when you use a
different snapshot in the table_tuple_lock() call (a fresh MVCC
snapshot) than in the index scan (DirtySnapshot). However, in the heap
AM and other AMs where the TID alone identifies the row version, it
doesn't matter. So for now, just fix the obvious albeit harmless bug.

This has been wrong ever since the table AM API was introduced in
commit 5db6df0c01, so backpatch to all supported versions.

308d0d4437 Fix some performance issues in GIN query startup.
If a GIN index search had a lot of search keys (for example,
"jsonbcol ?| array[]" with tens of thousands of array elements),
both ginFillScanKey() and startScanKey() took O(N^2) time.
Worse, those loops were uncancelable for lack of CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS.

The problem in ginFillScanKey() is the brute-force search key
de-duplication done in ginFillScanEntry().  The most expedient
solution seems to be to just stop trying to de-duplicate once
there are "too many" search keys.  We could imagine working harder,
say by using a sort-and-unique algorithm instead of brute force
compare-all-the-keys.  But it seems unlikely to be worth the trouble.
There is no correctness issue here, since the code already allowed
duplicate keys if any extra_data is present.

The problem in startScanKey() is the loop that attempts to identify
the first non-required search key.  In the submitted test case, that
vainly tests all the key positions, and each iteration takes O(N)
time.  One part of that is that it's reinitializing the entryRes[]
array from scratch each time, which is entirely unnecessary given
that the triConsistentFn isn't supposed to scribble on its input.
We can easily adjust the array contents incrementally instead.
The other part of it is that the triConsistentFn may itself take
O(N) time (and does in this test case).  This is all extremely
brute force: in simple cases with AND or OR semantics, we could
know without any looping whatever that all or none of the keys
are required.  But GIN opclasses don't have any API for exposing
that knowledge, so at least in the short run there is little to
be done about that.  Put in a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS so that at
least the loop is cancelable.

These two changes together resolve the primary complaint that
the test query doesn't respond promptly to cancel interrupts.
Also, while they don't completely eliminate the O(N^2) behavior,
they do provide quite a nice speedup for mid-sized examples.

aac07b5625 Fix broken handling of domains in atthasmissing logic.
If a domain type has a default, adding a column of that type (without
any explicit DEFAULT clause) failed to install the domain's default
value in existing rows, instead leaving the new column null.  This
is unexpected, and it used to work correctly before v11.  The cause
is confusion in the atthasmissing mechanism about which default value
to install: we'd only consider installing an explicitly-specified
default, and then we'd decide that no table rewrite is needed.

To fix, take the responsibility for filling attmissingval out of
StoreAttrDefault, and instead put it into ATExecAddColumn's existing
logic that derives the correct value to fill the new column with.
Also, centralize the logic that determines the need for
default-related table rewriting there, instead of spreading it over
four or five places.

In the back branches, we'll leave the attmissingval-filling code
in StoreAttrDefault even though it's now dead, for fear that some
extension may be depending on that functionality to exist there.
A separate HEAD-only patch will clean up the now-useless code.

5302ff95ca Fix pg_dumpall to cope with dangling OIDs in pg_auth_members.
There is a race condition between "GRANT role" and "DROP ROLE",
which allows GRANT to install pg_auth_members entries that refer to
dropped roles.  (Commit 6566133c5 prevented that for the grantor
field, but not for the granted or grantee roles.)  We'll soon fix
that, at least in HEAD, but pg_dumpall needs to cope with the
situation in case of pre-existing inconsistency.  As pg_dumpall
stands, it will emit invalid commands like 'GRANT foo TO ""',
which causes pg_upgrade to fail.  Fix it to emit warnings and skip
those GRANTs, instead.

There was some discussion of removing the problem by changing
dumpRoleMembership's query to use JOIN not LEFT JOIN, but that
would result in silently ignoring such entries.  It seems better
to produce a warning.

Pre-v16 branches already coped with dangling grantor OIDs by simply
omitting the GRANTED BY clause.  I left that behavior as-is, although
it's somewhat inconsistent with the behavior of later branches.

bb2bf22761 tests: BackgroundPsql: Fix potential for lost errors on windows
This addresses various corner cases in BackgroundPsql:

- On windows stdout and stderr may arrive out of order, leading to errors not
  being reported, or attributed to the wrong statement.

  To fix, emit the "query-separation banner" on both stdout and stderr and
  wait for both.

- Very occasionally the "query-separation banner" would not get removed, because
  we waited until the banner arrived, but then replaced the banner plus
  newline.

  To fix, wait for banner and newline.

- For interactive psql replacing $banner\n is not sufficient, interactive psql
  outputs \r\n.

- For interactive psql, where commands are echoed to stdout, the \echo
  command, rather than its output, would be matched.

  This would sometimes lead to output from the prior query, or wait_connect(),
  being returned in the next command.

  This also affected wait_connect(), leading to sometimes sending queries to
  psql before the connection actually was established.

While debugging these issues I also found that it's hard to know whether a
query separation banner was attributed to the right query. Make that easier by
counting the queries each BackgroundPsql instance has emitted and include the
number in the banner.

Also emit psql stdout/stderr in query() and wait_connect() as Test::More
notes, without that it's rather hard to debug some issues in CI and buildfarm.

As this can cause issues not just to-be-added tests, but also existing ones,
backpatch the fix to all supported versions.

Michael's original commit message:

A newline is not added at the end of an empty query result, causing the
banner of the hardcoded \echo to not be discarded.  This would reflect
on scripts that expect an empty result by showing the "QUERY_SEPARATOR"
in the output returned back to the caller, which was confusing.

This commit changes BackgroundPsql::query() so as empty results are able
to work correctly, making the first newline before the banner optional,
bringing more flexibility.

Note that this change affects 037_invalid_database.pl, where three
queries generated an empty result, with the script relying on the data
from the hardcoded banner to exist in the expected output.  These
queries are changed to use query_safe(), leading to a simpler script.

The author has also proposed a test in a different patch where empty
results would exist when using BackgroundPsql.

9f052613e4 In fmtIdEnc(), handle failure of enlargePQExpBuffer().
Coverity complained that we weren't doing that, and it's right.

This fix just makes fmtIdEnc() honor the general convention that OOM
causes a PQExpBuffer to become marked "broken", without any immediate
error.  In the pretty-unlikely case that we actually did hit OOM here,
the end result would be to return an empty string to the caller,
probably resulting in invalid SQL syntax in an issued command (if
nothing else went wrong, which is even more unlikely).  It's tempting
to throw an "out of memory" error if the buffer becomes broken, but
there's not a lot of point in doing that only here and not in hundreds
of other PQExpBuffer-using places in pg_dump and similar callers.
The whole issue could do with some non-time-crunched redesign, perhaps.

This is a followup to the fixes for CVE-2025-1094, and should be
included if cherry-picking those fixes.
