Backpatch commit 7bc9a8bdd2 to 13-17. The motivation for backpatching is that
we want to update CI to Debian Trixie. Trixie contains a newer mingw
installation, which would trigger the warning addressed by 7bc9a8bdd2. The
risk of backpatching seems fairly low, given that it did not cause issues in
the branches the commit is already present.
While CI is not present in 13-14, it seems better to be consistent across
branches.

expression, if it's specified as an expression e.g. "(<generated

of partition key expression. Fix this hole.

It's possible to define BRIN indexes on functions that require a
snapshot to run, but the autosummarization feature introduced by commit
7526e10224 fails to provide one. This causes autovacuum to leave a
BRIN placeholder tuple behind after a failed work-item execution, making
such indexes less efficient. Repair by obtaining a snapshot prior to
running the task, and add a test to verify this behavior.

Commit b4f584f9d2 (affecting v15~, later backpatched down to 13 as of
3635a0a35a) introduced an unconditional WAL receiver shutdown when
switching from streaming to archive WAL sources. This causes problems
during a timeline switch, when a WAL receiver enters WALRCV_WAITING
state but remains alive, waiting for instructions.
The unconditional shutdown can break some monitoring scenarios as the
WAL receiver gets repeatedly terminated and re-spawned, causing
pg_stat_wal_receiver.status to show a "streaming" instead of "waiting"
status, masking the fact that the WAL receiver is waiting for a new TLI
and a new LSN to be able to continue streaming.
This commit changes the WAL receiver behavior so as the shutdown becomes
conditional, with InstallXLogFileSegmentActive being always reset to
prevent the regression fixed by b4f584f9d2a1: only terminate the WAL
receiver when it is actively streaming (WALRCV_STREAMING,
WALRCV_STARTING, or WALRCV_RESTARTING). When in WALRCV_WAITING state,
just reset InstallXLogFileSegmentActive flag to allow archive
restoration without killing the process. WALRCV_STOPPED and
WALRCV_STOPPING are not reachable states in this code path. For the
latter, the startup process is the one in charge of setting
WALRCV_STOPPING via ShutdownWalRcv(), waiting for the WAL receiver to
reach a WALRCV_STOPPED state after switching walRcvState, so
WaitForWALToBecomeAvailable() cannot be reached while a WAL receiver is
in a WALRCV_STOPPING state.
A regression test is added to check that a WAL receiver is not stopped
on timeline jump, that fails when the fix of this commit is reverted.

Because long is 32-bit on 64-bit Windows, it isn't a good datatype to
store the difference between 2 pointers. The under-sized type could
overflow and lead to scary warnings in MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING builds,
such as:
WARNING: problem in alloc set ExecutorState: bad single-chunk %p in block %p
However, the problem lies only in the code running the check, not from
an actual memory accounting bug.
Fix by using "Size" instead of "long". This means using an unsigned
type rather than the previous signed type. If the block's freeptr was
corrupted, we'd still catch that if the unsigned type wrapped. Unsigned
allows us to avoid further needless complexities around comparing signed
and unsigned types.

When dealing with ResultRelInfos for partitions, there are cases where
there are mixed requirements for the ri_RootResultRelInfo. There are
cases when the partition itself requires a NULL ri_RootResultRelInfo and
in the same query, the same partition may require a ResultRelInfo with
its parent set in ri_RootResultRelInfo. This could cause the column
mapping between the partitioned table and the partition not to be done
which could result in crashes if the column attnums didn't match
exactly.
The fix is simple. We now check that the ri_RootResultRelInfo matches
what the caller passed to ExecGetTriggerResultRel() and only return a
cached ResultRelInfo when the ri_RootResultRelInfo matches what the
caller wants, otherwise we'll make a new one.

Commit c6f7f11d8 intended to prevent leaking any PyObject reference
counts in edge cases (such as out-of-memory during string
construction), but actually it introduced a leak in the normal case.
Repeating an error-trapping operation often enough would lead to
session-lifespan memory bloat. The problem is that I failed to
think about the fact that PyObject_GetAttrString() increments the
refcount of the returned PyObject, so that simply walking down the
list of error frame objects causes all but the first one to have
their refcount incremented.
I experimented with several more-or-less-complex ways around that,
and eventually concluded that the right fix is simply to drop the
newly-obtained refcount as soon as we walk to the next frame
object in PLy_traceback. This sounds unsafe, but it's perfectly
okay because the caller holds a refcount on the first frame object
and each frame object holds a refcount on the next one; so the
current frame object can't disappear underneath us.
By the same token, we can simplify the caller's cleanup back to
simply dropping its refcount on the first object. Cleanup of
each frame object will lead in turn to the refcount of the next
one going to zero.
I also added a couple of comments explaining why PLy_elog_impl()
doesn't try to free the strings acquired from PLy_get_spi_error_data()
or PLy_get_error_data(). That's because I got here by looking at a
Coverity complaint about how those strings might get leaked. They
are not leaked, but in testing that I discovered this other leak.
Back-patch, as c6f7f11d8 was. It's a bit nervous-making to be
putting such a fix into v13, which is only a couple weeks from its
final release; but I can't see that leaving a recently-introduced
leak in place is a better idea.

When JIT deformed tuples (controlled via the jit_tuple_deforming GUC),
types narrower than sizeof(Datum) would be zero-extended up to Datum
width. This wasn't the same as what fetch_att() does in the standard
tuple deforming code. Logically the values are the same when fetching
via the DatumGet*() marcos, but negative numbers are not the same in
binary form.
In the report, the problem was manifesting itself with:
ERROR: could not find memoization table entry
in a query which had a "Cache Mode: binary" Memoize node. However, it's
currently unclear what else is affected. Anything that uses
datum_image_eq() or datum_image_hash() on a Datum from a tuple deformed by
JIT could be affected, but it may not be limited to that.
The fix for this is simple: use signed extension instead of zero
extension.

the GUC check hook for primary_slot_name reported errors at WARNING

This commit changes the check hook to use GUC_check_errdetail() and
GUC_check_errhint() for error reporting. As with other GUC parameters,
this causes non-postmaster processes to log the message at DEBUG3,

Previously, when the replay LSN reported in feedback messages from a standby
stopped advancing, for example, due to a recovery conflict, the write_lag and
flush_lag columns in pg_stat_replication would initially update but then stop
progressing. This prevented users from correctly monitoring replication lag.
The problem occurred because when any LSN stopped updating, the lag tracker's
cyclic buffer became full (the write head reached the slowest read head).
In that state, the lag tracker could no longer compute round-trip lag values
correctly.
This commit fixes the issue by handling the slowest read entry (the one
causing the buffer to fill) as a separate overflow entry and freeing space
so the write and other read heads can continue advancing in the buffer.
As a result, write_lag and flush_lag now continue updating even if the reported
replay LSN remains stalled.

It emerges that zlib's configuration logic is not robust enough
to guarantee that the macro will have the same ideas about struct
field layout as the library itself does, leading to corruption of
zlib's state struct followed by unintelligible failure messages.
This hazard has existed for a long time, but we'd not noticed
for several reasons:
(1) We only use gzgetc() when trying to read a manually-compressed
TOC file within a directory-format dump, which is a rarely-used
scenario that we weren't even testing before 20ec99589.
(2) No corruption actually occurs unless sizeof(long) is different
from sizeof(off_t) and the platform is big-endian.
(3) Some platforms have already fixed the configuration instability,
at least sufficiently for their environments.
Despite (3), it seems foolish to assume that the problem isn't
going to be present in some environments for a long time to come.
Hence, avoid relying on this macro. We can just #undef it and
fall back on the underlying function of the same name.

pg_prewarm() currently checks for SELECT privileges on the target
relation. However, indexes do not have access rights of their own,
so a role may be denied permission to prewarm an index despite
having the SELECT privilege on its parent table. This commit fixes
this by locking the parent table before the index (to avoid
deadlocks) and checking for SELECT on the parent table. Note that
the code is largely borrowed from
amcheck_lock_relation_and_check().
An obvious downside of this change is the extra AccessShareLock on
the parent table during prewarming, but that isn't expected to
cause too much trouble in practice.

If inside an EPQ recheck, ExecScanFetch would run the recheck method
function for foreign/custom joins even if they aren't descendant nodes
in the EPQ recheck plan tree, which is problematic at least in the
foreign-join case, because such a foreign join isn't guaranteed to have
an alternative local-join plan required for running the recheck method
function; in the postgres_fdw case this could lead to a segmentation
fault or an assert failure in an assert-enabled build when running the
recheck method function.
Even if inside an EPQ recheck, any scan nodes that aren't descendant
ones in the EPQ recheck plan tree should be normally processed by using
the access method function; fix by modifying ExecScanFetch so that if
inside an EPQ recheck, it runs the recheck method function for
foreign/custom joins that are descendant nodes in the EPQ recheck plan
tree as before and runs the access method function for foreign/custom
joins that aren't.
This fix also adds to postgres_fdw an isolation test for an EPQ recheck
that caused issues stated above.

Commit 71f4c8c6f7 (which implemented DETACH CONCURRENTLY) added code
to create a separate table constraint when a table is detached
concurrently, identical to the partition constraint, on the theory that
such a constraint was needed in case the optimizer had constructed any
query plans that depended on the constraint being there. However, that
theory was apparently bogus because any such plans would be invalidated.
For hash partitioning, those constraints are problematic, because their
expressions reference the OID of the parent partitioned table, to which
the detached table is no longer related; this causes all sorts of
problems (such as inability of restoring a pg_dump of that table, and
the table no longer working properly if the partitioned table is later
dropped).
We'd like to get rid of all those constraints. In fact, for branch
master, do that -- no longer create any substitute constraints.
However, out of fear that some users might somehow depend on these
constraints for other partitioning strategies, for stable branches
(back to 14, which added DETACH CONCURRENTLY), only do it for hash
partitioning.
(If you repeatedly DETACH CONCURRENTLY and then ATTACH a partition, then
with this constraint addition you don't need to scan the table in the
ATTACH step, which presumably is good. But if users really valued this
feature, they would have requested that it worked for non-concurrent
DETACH also.)

An error happening while a slot data is saved on disk in
SaveSlotToPath() could cause a state.tmp file (temporary file holding
the slot state data, renamed to its permanent name at the end of the
function) to remain around after it has been created. This temporary
file is created with O_EXCL, meaning that if an existing state.tmp is
found, its creation would fail. This would prevent the slot data to be
saved, requiring a manual intervention to remove state.tmp before being
able to save again a slot. Possible scenarios where this temporary file
could remain on disk is for example a ENOSPC case (no disk space) while
writing, syncing or renaming it. The bug reports point to a write
failure as the principal cause of the problems.
Using O_TRUNC has been argued back in 2019 as a potential solution to
discard any temporary file that could exist. This solution was rejected
as O_EXCL can also act as a safety measure when saving the slot state,
crash recovery offering cleanup guarantees post-crash. This commit uses
the alternative approach that has been suggested by Andres Freund back
in 2019. When the temporary state file cannot be written, synced,
closed or renamed (note: not when created!), an unlink() is used to
remove the temporary state file while holding the in-progress I/O
LWLock, so as any follow-up attempts to save a slot's data would not
choke on an existing file that remained around because of a previous
failure.
This problem has been reported a few times across the years, going back
to 2019, but for some reason I have never come back to do something
about it and it has been forgotten. A recent report has reminded me
that this was still a problem.

entry's cache, resulting in a crash.
With this change, it's ensured that RelationSyncCache is cleaned up
even in error cases by using a memory context reset callback function.
Backpatch to 15, where entry_cxt was introduced for column filtering
and row filtering.
While the backbranches v13 and v14 have a similar issue where
RelationSyncCache persists even after an error when pgoutput is used
via SQL API, we decided not to backport this fix. This decision was
made because v13 is approaching its final minor release, and we won't
have an chance to fix any new issues that might arise. Additionally,
since using pgoutput via SQL API is not a common use case, the risk
outwights the benefit. If we receive bug reports, we can consider
backporting the fixes then.

On Windows, this code did not handle error conditions correctly at
all, since it looked at "errno" which is not used for socket-related
errors on that platform. This resulted, for example, in failure
to connect to a PostgreSQL server with GSSAPI enabled.
We have a convention for dealing with this within libpq, which is to
use SOCK_ERRNO and SOCK_ERRNO_SET rather than touching errno directly;
but the GSSAPI code is a relative latecomer and did not get that memo.
(The equivalent backend code continues to use errno, because the
backend does this differently. Maybe libpq's approach should be
rethought someday.)
Apparently nobody tries to build libpq with GSSAPI support on Windows,
or we'd have heard about this before, because it's been broken all
along. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Currently, pgbench aborts when a COPY response is received in
readCommandResponse(). However, as PQgetResult() returns an empty
result when there is no asynchronous result, through getCopyResult(),
the logic done at the end of readCommandResponse() for the error path
leads to an infinite loop.
This commit forcefully exits the COPY state with PQendcopy() before
moving to the error handler when fiding a COPY state, avoiding the
infinite loop. The COPY protocol is not supported by pgbench anyway, as
an error is assumed in this case, so giving up is better than having the
tool be stuck forever. pgbench was interruptible in this state.
A TAP test is added to check that an error happens if trying to use
COPY.

pgstattuple checks the state of the pages retrieved for gist and hash
using some check functions from each index AM, respectively
gistcheckpage() and _hash_checkpage(). When these are called, they
would fail when bumping on data that is found as incorrect (like opaque
area size not matching, or empty pages), contrary to btree that simply
discards these cases and continues to aggregate data.
Zero pages can happen after a crash, with these AMs being able to do an
internal cleanup when these are seen. Also, sporadic failures are
annoying when doing for example a large-scale diagnostic query based on
pgstattuple with a join of pg_class, as it forces one to use tricks like
quals to discard hash or gist indexes, or use a PL wrapper able to catch
errors.
This commit changes the reports generated for btree, gist and hash to
be more user-friendly;
- When seeing an empty page, report it as free space. This new rule
applies to gist and hash, and already applied to btree.
- For btree, a check based on the size of BTPageOpaqueData is added.
- For gist indexes, gistcheckpage() is not called anymore, replaced by a
check based on the size of GISTPageOpaqueData.
- For hash indexes, instead of _hash_getbuf_with_strategy(), use a
direct call to ReadBufferExtended(), coupled with a check based on
HashPageOpaqueData. The opaque area size check was already used.
- Pages that do not match these criterias are discarded from the stats
reports generated.
There have been a couple of bug reports over the years that complained
about the current behavior for hash and gist, as being not that useful,
with nothing being done about it. Hence this change is backpatched down
to v13.

pgbench uses readCommandResponse() to process server responses.
When readCommandResponse() encounters an error during a call to
PQgetResult() to fetch the current result, it attempts to report it
with an additional error message from PQerrorMessage(). However,
previously, this extra error message could be lost or become incorrect.
The cause was that after fetching the current result (and detecting
an error), readCommandResponse() called PQgetResult() again to
peek at the next result. This second call could overwrite the libpq
connection's error message before the original error was reported,
causing the error message retrieved from PQerrorMessage() to be
lost or overwritten.
This commit fixes the issue by updating readCommandResponse()
to use PQresultErrorMessage() instead of PQerrorMessage()
to retrieve the error message generated when the PQgetResult()
for the current result causes an error, ensuring the correct message
is reported.

Neighbor get_statistics_object_oid() ignores objects in pg_temp, as has
been the standard for non-relation, non-type namespace searches since
CVE-2007-2138. Hence, most operations that name a statistics object
correctly decline to map an unqualified name to a statistics object in
pg_temp. StatisticsObjIsVisibleExt() did not. Consequently,
pg_statistics_obj_is_visible() wrongly returned true for such objects,
psql \dX wrongly listed them, and getObjectDescription()-based ereport()
and pg_describe_object() wrongly omitted namespace qualification. Any
malfunction beyond that would depend on how a human or application acts
on those wrong indications. Commit
d99d58cdc8 introduced this. Back-patch to
v13 (all supported versions).

Because we failed to do this, DISTINCT in GROUP BY DISTINCT would be
ignored in PL/pgSQL assignment statements. It's not surprising that
no one noticed, since such statements will throw an error if the query
produces more than one row. That eliminates most scenarios where
advanced forms of GROUP BY could be useful, and indeed makes it hard
even to find a simple test case. Nonetheless it's wrong.
This is directly the fault of be45be9c3 which added the groupDistinct
field, but I think much of the blame has to fall on c9d529848, in
which I incautiously supposed that we'd manage to keep two copies of
a big chunk of parse-analysis logic in sync. As a follow-up, I plan
to refactor so that there's only one copy. But that seems useful
only in master, so let's use this one-line fix for the back branches.

When running pgbench with --verbose-errors option and a custom script that
triggered retriable errors (e.g., serialization errors) in pipeline mode,
an assertion failure could occur:
Assertion failed: (sql_script[st->use_file].commands[st->command]->type == 1), function commandError, file pgbench.c, line 3062.
The failure happened because pgbench assumed these errors would only occur
during SQL commands, but in pipeline mode they can also happen during
\endpipeline meta command.
This commit fixes the assertion failure by adjusting the assertion check to
allow such errors during either SQL commands or \endpipeline.
Backpatch to v15, where the assertion check was introduced.

The functions test_stat_func() and test_stat_func2() had empty
function bodies, so that they took very little time to run. This made
it possible that on machines with relatively low timer resolution the
functions could return before the clock advanced, making the test fail
(as seen on buildfarm members fruitcrow and hamerkop).
To avoid that, pg_sleep for 10us during the functions. As far as we
can tell, all current hardware has clock resolution much less than
that. (The current implementation of pg_sleep will round it up to
1ms anyway, but someday that might get improved.)

As a result, it could issue SECURITY LABEL commands for objects that were

If an aggregate function call contains a sub-select that has
an RTE referencing a CTE outside the aggregate, we must treat
that reference like a Var referencing the CTE's query level
for purposes of determining the aggregate's level. Otherwise
we might reach the nonsensical conclusion that the aggregate
should be evaluated at some query level higher than the CTE,
ending in a planner error or a broken plan tree that causes
executor failures.

The EvalPlanQual recheck for TID Range Scan wasn't rechecking the TID qual
still passed after following update chains. This could result in tuples
being updated or deleted by plans using TID Range Scans where the ctid of
the new (updated) tuple no longer matches the clause of the scan. This
isn't desired behavior, and isn't consistent with what would happen if the
chosen plan had used an Index or Seq Scan, and that could lead to hard to
predict behavior for scans that contain TID quals and other quals as the
planner has freedom to choose TID Range or some other non-TID scan method
for such queries, and the chosen plan could change at any moment.
Here we fix this by properly implementing the recheck function for TID
Range Scans.
