Stephen Frost	0787432f33	For Kerberos testing, disable reverse DNS lookup ... In our Kerberos test suite, there isn't much need to worry about the normal canonicalization that Kerberos provides by looking up the reverse DNS for the IP address connected to, and in some cases it can actively cause problems (eg: a captive portal wifi where the normally not resolvable localhost address used ends up being resolved anyway, and not to the domain we are using for testing, causing the entire regression test to fail with errors about not being able to get a TGT for the remote realm for cross-realm trust). Therefore, disable it by adding rdns = false into the krb5.conf that's generated for the test.

Tom Lane	d6ac2348b8	Stabilize just-added regression test cases. ... The tests added by commits 029dea882 et al turn out to produce different output under -DRANDOMIZE_ALLOCATED_MEMORY. This is not a bug exactly: that flag causes coerce_type() to invoke the input function twice when coercing an unknown-type literal to a specific type. So you get tsqueryin's bleat about an empty tsquery twice. Revise the test query to avoid that. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20230406213813.uep7plg6lvcywujo@awork3.anarazel.de	3 years ago
Tom Lane	f976a77787	Fix ts_headline() edge cases for empty query and empty search text. ... tsquery's GETQUERY() macro is only safe to apply to a tsquery that is known non-empty; otherwise it gives a pointer to garbage. Before commit 5a617d75d, ts_headline() avoided this pitfall, but only in a very indirect, nonobvious way. (hlCover could not reach its TS_execute call, because if the query contains no lexemes then hlFirstIndex would surely return -1.) After that commit, it fell into the trap, resulting in weird errors such as "unrecognized operator" and/or valgrind complaints. In HEAD, fix this by not calling TS_execute_locations() at all for an empty query. In the back branches, add a defensive check to hlCover() --- that's not fixing any live bug, but I judge the code a bit too fragile as-is. Also, both mark_hl_fragments() and mark_hl_words() were careless about the possibility of empty search text: in the cases where no match has been found, they'd end up telling mark_fragment() to mark from word indexes 0 to 0 inclusive, even when there is no word 0. This is harmless since we over-allocated the prs->words array, but it does annoy valgrind. Fix so that the end index is -1 and thus mark_fragment() will do nothing in such cases. Bottom line is that this fixes a live bug in HEAD, but in the back branches it's only getting rid of a valgrind nitpick. Back-patch anyway. Per report from Alexander Lakhin.

Tom Lane	2624de79ef	Fix another issue with ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER on partitioned tables. ... In v13 and v14, the ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER USER variant malfunctioned on cloned triggers, failing to find the clones because it thought they were system triggers. Other variants of ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER would improperly apply a superuserness check. Fix by adjusting the is-it- a-system-trigger check to match reality in those branches. (As far as I can find, this is the only place that got it wrong.) There's no such bug in v15/HEAD, because we revised the catalog representation of system triggers to be what this code was expecting. However, add the test case to these branches anyway, because this area is visibly pretty fragile. Also remove an obsoleted comment. The recent v15/HEAD commit 6949b921d fixed a nearby bug. I now see that my commit message for that was inaccurate: the behavior of recursing to clone triggers is older than v15, but it didn't apply to the case in v13/v14 because in those branches parent partitioned tables have no pg_trigger entries for foreign-key triggers. But add the test case from that commit to v13/v14, just to show what is happening there. Per bug #17886 from DzmitryH.

Tom Lane	6e36981736	Reject system columns as elements of foreign keys. ... Up through v11 it was sensible to use the "oid" system column as a foreign key column, but since that was removed there's no visible usefulness in making any of the remaining system columns a foreign key. Moreover, since the TupleTableSlot rewrites in v12, such cases actively fail because of implicit assumptions that only user columns appear in foreign keys. The lack of complaints about that seems like good evidence that no one is trying to do it. Hence, rather than trying to repair those assumptions (of which there are at least two, maybe more), let's just forbid the case up front. Per this patch, a system column in either the referenced or referencing side of a foreign key will draw this error; however, putting one in the referenced side would have failed later anyway, since we don't allow unique indexes to be made on system columns. Per bug #17877 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v12; the case still appears to work in v11, so we shouldn't break it there.

David Rowley	df567fbf6e	Fix List memory issue in transformColumnDefinition ... When calling generateSerialExtraStmts(), we would pass in the constraint->options. In some cases, generateSerialExtraStmts() would modify the referenced List to remove elements from it, but doing so is invalid without assigning the list back to all variables that point to it. In the particular reported problem case, the List became empty, in which cases it became NIL, but the passed in constraint->options didn't get to find out about that and was left pointing to free'd memory. To fix this, just perform a list_copy() inside generateSerialExtraStmts(). We could just do a list_copy() just before we perform the delete from the list, however, that seems less robust. Let's make sure the generated CreateSeqStmt gets a completely different copy of the list to be safe.

Tom Lane	2dc77adc76	Fix dereference of dangling pointer in GiST index buffering build. ... gistBuildCallback tried to fetch the size of an index tuple that might have already been freed by gistProcessEmptyingQueue. While this seems to usually be harmless in production builds, in principle it could result in a SIGSEGV, or more likely a bogus value for indtuplesSize leading to poor page-split decisions later in the build. The memory management here is confusing and could stand to be refactored, but for the moment it seems to be enough to fetch the tuple size sooner. AFAICT the indtuples[Size] totals aren't used in between these places; even if they were, the updated values shouldn't be any worse to use. So just move the incrementing of the totals up. It's not very clear why our valgrind-using buildfarm animals haven't noticed this problem, because the relevant code path does seem to be exercised according to the code coverage report. I think the reason that we didn't fix this bug after the first report is that I'd wanted to try to understand that better. However, now that it's been re-discovered let's just be pragmatic and fix it already. Original report by Alexander Lakhin (bug #16329), later rediscovered by Egor Chindyaskin (bug #17874).

Tom Lane	bf5c4b3d9d	Fix corner-case planner failure for MERGE. ... MERGE planning could fail with "variable not found in subplan target list" if the target table is partitioned and all its partitions are excluded at plan time, or in the case where it has no partitions but used to have some. This happened because distribute_row_identity_vars thought it didn't need to make the target table's reltarget list fully valid; but if we generate a join plan then that is required because the dummy Result node's tlist will be made from the reltarget. The same logic appears in distribute_row_identity_vars in v14, but AFAICS the problem is unreachable in that branch for lack of MERGE. In other updating statements, the target table is always inner-joined to any other tables, so if the target is known dummy then the whole plan reduces to dummy, so no join nodes are created. So I'll refrain from back-patching this code change to v14 for now. Per report from Alvaro Herrera. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20230328112248.6as34mlx5sr4kltg@alvherre.pgsql	3 years ago

Tom Lane	d90d59e250	Reject attempts to alter composite types used in indexes. ... find_composite_type_dependencies() ignored indexes, which is a poor decision because an expression index could have a stored column of a composite (or other container) type even when the underlying table does not. Teach it to detect such cases and error out. We have to work a bit harder than for other relations because the pg_depend entry won't identify the specific index column of concern, but it's not much new code. This does not address bug #17872's original complaint that dropping a column in such a type might lead to violations of the uniqueness property that a unique index is supposed to ensure. That seems of much less concern to me because it won't lead to crashes. Per bug #17872 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane	7c4873438f	Fix oversights in array manipulation. ... The nested-arrays code path in ExecEvalArrayExpr() used palloc to allocate the result array, whereas every other array-creating function has used palloc0 since 18c0b4ecc. This mostly works, but unused bits past the end of the nulls bitmap may end up undefined. That causes valgrind complaints with -DWRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES, and could cause planner misbehavior as cited in 18c0b4ecc. There seems no very good reason why we should strive to avoid palloc0 in just this one case, so fix it the easy way with s/palloc/palloc0/. While looking at that I noted that we also failed to check for overflow of "nbytes" and "nitems" while summing the sizes of the sub-arrays, potentially allowing a crash due to undersized output allocation. For "nbytes", follow the policy used by other array-munging code of checking for overflow after each addition. (As elsewhere, the last addition of the array's overhead space doesn't need an extra check, since palloc itself will catch a value between 1Gb and 2Gb.) For "nitems", there's no very good reason to sum the inputs at all, since we can perfectly well use ArrayGetNItems' result instead of ignoring it. Per discussion of this bug, also remove redundant zeroing of the nulls bitmap in array_set_element and array_set_slice. Patch by Alexander Lakhin and myself, per bug #17858 from Alexander Lakhin; thanks also to Richard Guo. These bugs are a dozen years old, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Robert Haas	701ec55579	amcheck: Fix verify_heapam for tuples where xmin or xmax is 0. ... In such cases, get_xid_status() doesn't set its output parameter (the third argument), so we shouldn't fall through to code which will test the value of that parameter. There are five existing calls to get_xid_status(), three of which seem to already handle this case properly. This commit tries to fix the other two. If we're checking xmin and find that it is invalid (i.e. 0) just report that as corruption, similar to what's already done in the three cases that seem correct. If we're checking xmax and find that's invalid, that's fine: it just means that the tuple hasn't been updated or deleted. Thanks to Andres Freund and valgrind for finding this problem, and also to Andres for having a look at the patch. This bug seems to go all the way back to where verify_heapam was first introduced, but wasn't detected until recently, possibly because of the new test cases added for update chain verification.

Thomas Munro	c03c6e8cf6	Fix race in parallel hash join batch cleanup, take II. ... With unlucky timing and parallel_leader_participation=off (not the default), PHJ could attempt to access per-batch shared state just as it was being freed. There was code intended to prevent that by checking for a cleared pointer, but it was racy. Fix, by introducing an extra barrier phase. The new phase PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING means that it's safe to access the per-batch state to find a batch to help with, and PHJ_BUILD_DONE means that it is too late. The last to detach will free the array of per-batch state as before, but now it will also atomically advance the phase, so that late attachers can avoid the hazard. This mirrors the way per-batch hash tables are freed (see phases PHJ_BATCH_PROBING and PHJ_BATCH_DONE). An earlier attempt to fix this (commit 3b8981b6, later reverted) missed one special case. When the inner side is empty (the "empty inner optimization), the build barrier would only make it to PHJ_BUILD_HASHING_INNER phase before workers attempted to detach from the hashtable. In that case, fast-forward the build barrier to PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING before proceeding, so that our later assertions hold and we can still negotiate who is cleaning up. Revealed by build farm failures, where BarrierAttach() failed a sanity check assertion, because the memory had been clobbered by dsa_free(). In non-assert builds, the result could be a segmentation fault. Back-patch to all supported releases.

Tom Lane	2b216da1e5	Fix pg_dump for hash partitioning on enum columns. ... Hash partitioning on an enum is problematic because the hash codes are derived from the OIDs assigned to the enum values, which will almost certainly be different after a dump-and-reload than they were before. This means that some rows probably end up in different partitions than before, causing restore to fail because of partition constraint violations. (pg_upgrade dodges this problem by using hacks to force the enum values to keep the same OIDs, but that's not possible nor desirable for pg_dump.) Users can work around that by specifying --load-via-partition-root, but since that's a dump-time not restore-time decision, one might find out the need for it far too late. Instead, teach pg_dump to apply that option automatically when dealing with a partitioned table that has hash-on-enum partitioning. Also deal with a pre-existing issue for --load-via-partition-root mode: in a parallel restore, we try to TRUNCATE target tables just before loading them, in order to enable some backend optimizations. This is bad when using --load-via-partition-root because (a) we're likely to suffer deadlocks from restore jobs trying to restore rows into other partitions than they came from, and (b) if we miss getting a deadlock we might still lose data due to a TRUNCATE removing rows from some already-completed restore job. The fix for this is conceptually simple: just don't TRUNCATE if we're dealing with a --load-via-partition-root case. The tricky bit is for pg_restore to identify those cases. In dumps using COPY commands we can inspect each COPY command to see if it targets the nominal target table or some ancestor. However, in dumps using INSERT commands it's pretty impractical to examine the INSERTs in advance. To provide a solution for that going forward, modify pg_dump to mark TABLE DATA items that are using --load-via-partition-root with a comment. (This change also responds to a complaint from Robert Haas that the dump output for --load-via-partition-root is pretty confusing.) pg_restore checks for the special comment as well as checking the COPY command if present. This will fail to identify the combination of --load-via-partition-root and --inserts in pre-existing dump files, but that should be a pretty rare case in the field. If it does happen you will probably get a deadlock failure that you can work around by not using parallel restore, which is the same as before this bug fix. Having done this, there seems no remaining reason for the alarmism in the pg_dump man page about combining --load-via-partition-root with parallel restore, so remove that warning. Patch by me; thanks to Julien Rouhaud for review. Back-patch to v11 where hash partitioning was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1376149.1675268279@sss.pgh.pa.us	3 years ago

While we currently are specifying 'logfile', nothing ends up in it, as the option only controls debug messages, and we didn't set a debug level. The debug level can only be configured on the commandline and also prevents forking. That'd require larger changes, so this commit doesn't tackle that issue.

A comment was left behind claiming that we needed to use malloc() rather than palloc() because the corresponding free would run in another thread, but that's not true anymore. Remove that comment. And, with the reason being gone, we might as well actually use palloc(). Back-patch to supported releases, like d41a178b.

Clarify that ATTACH/DETACH PARTITION can be used to perform partition maintenance with less locking than straight CREATE TABLE/DROP TABLE. This was already stated in some places, but not emphasized. Back-patch to v14 where DETACH PARTITION CONCURRENTLY was added. (We had lower lock levels for ATTACH PARTITION before that, but this wording wouldn't apply.)

Tom Lane	3908d6ae11	Support PlaceHolderVars in MERGE actions. ... preprocess_targetlist thought PHVs couldn't appear here. It was mistaken, as per report from Önder Kalacı. Surveying other pull_var_clause calls, I noted no similar errors, but I did notice that qual_is_pushdown_safe's assertion about !contain_window_function was pointless, because the following pull_var_clause call would complain about them anyway. In HEAD only, remove the redundant Assert and improve the commentary. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CACawEhUuum-gC_2S3sXLTcsk7bUSPSHOD+g1ZpfKaDK-KKPPWA@mail.gmail.com	3 years ago
Michael Paquier	69b6032e0d	Improve WIN32 port of fstat() to detect more file types ... The current implementation of _pgfstat64() is ineffective in detecting a terminal handle or an anonymous named pipe. This commit improves our port of fstat() to detect more efficiently such cases by relying on GetFileType(), and returning more correct data when the type found is either a FILE_TYPE_PIPE (_S_IFIFO) or a FILE_TYPE_CHAR (_S_IFCHR). This is part of a more global fix to address failures when feeding the output generated by pg_dump to pg_restore through a pipe, for example, but not all of it. We are also going to need to do something about fseek() and ftello() which are not reliable on WIN32 for the same cases where fstat() was incorrect. Fixing fstat() is independent of the rest, though, which is why both fixes are handled separately, and this is the first part of it.

Thomas Munro	d9c9c43af5	Fix fractional vacuum_cost_delay. ... Commit 4753ef37 changed vacuum_delay_point() to use the WaitLatch() API, to fix the problem that vacuum could keep running for a very long time after the postmaster died. Unfortunately, that broke commit caf626b2's support for fractional vacuum_cost_delay, which shipped in PostgreSQL 12. WaitLatch() works in whole milliseconds. For now, revert the change from commit 4753ef37, but add an explicit check for postmaster death. That's an extra system call on systems other than Linux and FreeBSD, but that overhead doesn't matter much considering that we willingly went to sleep and woke up again. (In later work, we might add higher resolution timeouts to the latch API so that we could do this with our standard programming pattern, but that wouldn't be back-patched.) Back-patch to 14, where commit 4753ef37 arrived.

Thomas Munro	06066915d4	Fix waitpid() emulation on Windows. ... Our waitpid() emulation didn't prevent a PID from being recycled by the OS before the call to waitpid(). The postmaster could finish up tracking more than one child process with the same PID, and confuse them. Fix, by moving the guts of pgwin32_deadchild_callback() into waitpid(), so that resources are released synchronously. The process and PID continue to exist until we close the process handle, which only happens once we're ready to adjust our book-keeping of running children. This seems to explain a couple of failures on CI. It had never been reported before, despite the code being as old as the Windows port. Perhaps Windows started recycling PIDs more rapidly, or perhaps timing changes due to commit 7389aad6 made it more likely to break. Thanks to Alexander Lakhin for analysis and Andres Freund for tracking down the root cause. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane	a67c75f825	Fix corner case bug in numeric to_char() some more. ... The band-aid applied in commit f0bedf3e4 turns out to still need some work: it made sure we didn't set Np->last_relevant too small (to the left of the decimal point), but it didn't prevent setting it too large (off the end of the partially-converted string). This could result in fetching data beyond the end of the allocated space, which with very bad luck could cause a SIGSEGV, though I don't see any hazard of interesting memory disclosure. Per bug #17839 from Thiago Nunes. The bug's pretty ancient, so back-patch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17839-aada50db24d7b0da@postgresql.org	3 years ago
Tom Lane	3b45944430	Remove unnecessary code in dependency_is_compatible_expression(). ... Scanning the expression for compatible Vars isn't really necessary, because the subsequent match against StatisticExtInfo entries will eliminate expressions containing other Vars just fine. Moreover, this code hadn't stopped to think about what to do with PlaceHolderVars or Aggrefs in the clause; and at least for the PHV case, that demonstrably leads to failures. Rather than work out whether it's reasonable to ignore those, let's just remove the whole stanza. Per report from Richard Guo. Back-patch to v14 where this code was added.

Tom Lane	74a1a36d75	Fix JSON error reporting for many cases of erroneous string values. ... The majority of error exit cases in json_lex_string() failed to set lex->token_terminator, causing problems for the error context reporting code: it would see token_terminator less than token_start and do something more or less nuts. In v14 and up the end result could be as bad as a crash in report_json_context(). Older versions accidentally avoided that fate; but all versions produce error context lines that are far less useful than intended, because they'd stop at the end of the prior token instead of continuing to where the actually-bad input is. To fix, invent some macros that make it less notationally painful to do the right thing. Also add documentation about what the function is actually required to do; and in >= v14, add an assertion in report_json_context about token_terminator being sufficiently far advanced. Per report from Nikolay Shaplov. Back-patch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/7332649.x5DLKWyVIX@thinkpad-pgpro	3 years ago
Tom Lane	5fd61bdc11	Fix failure to detect some cases of improperly-nested aggregates. ... check_agg_arguments_walker() supposed that it needn't descend into the arguments of a lower-level aggregate function, but this is just wrong in the presence of multiple levels of sub-select. The oversight would lead to executor failures on queries that should be rejected. (Prior to v11, they actually were rejected, thanks to a "redundant" execution-time check.)

Dean Rasheed	da6257eee3	Fix MERGE command tag for actions blocked by BEFORE ROW triggers. ... This ensures that the row count in the command tag for a MERGE is correctly computed in the case where UPDATEs or DELETEs are skipped due to a BEFORE ROW trigger returning NULL (the INSERT case was already handled correctly by ExecMergeNotMatched() calling ExecInsert()). Back-patch to v15, where MERGE was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAEZATCU8XEmR0JWKDtyb7iZ%3DqCffxS9uyJt0iOZ4TV4RT%2Bow1w%40mail.gmail.com	3 years ago
Dean Rasheed	7d9a75713a	Fix concurrent update issues with MERGE. ... If MERGE attempts an UPDATE or DELETE on a table with BEFORE ROW triggers, or a cross-partition UPDATE (with or without triggers), and a concurrent UPDATE or DELETE happens, the merge code would fail. In some cases this would lead to a crash, while in others it would cause the wrong merge action to be executed, or no action at all. The immediate cause of the crash was the trigger code calling ExecGetUpdateNewTuple() as part of the EPQ mechanism, which fails because during a merge ri_projectNew is NULL, since merge has its own per-action projection information, which ExecGetUpdateNewTuple() knows nothing about. Fix by arranging for the trigger code to exit early, returning the TM_Result and TM_FailureData information, if a concurrent modification is detected, allowing the merge code to do the necessary EPQ handling in its own way. Similarly, prevent the cross-partition update code from doing any EPQ processing for a merge, allowing the merge code to work out what it needs to do. This leads to a number of simplifications in nodeModifyTable.c. Most notably, the ModifyTableContext->GetUpdateNewTuple() callback is no longer needed, and mergeGetUpdateNewTuple() can be deleted, since there is no longer any requirement for get-update-new-tuple during a merge. Similarly, ModifyTableContext->cpUpdateRetrySlot is no longer needed. Thus ExecGetUpdateNewTuple() and the retry_slot handling of ExecCrossPartitionUpdate() can be restored to how they were in v14, before the merge code was added, and ExecMergeMatched() no longer needs any special-case handling for cross-partition updates. While at it, tidy up ExecUpdateEpilogue() a bit, making it handle recheckIndexes locally, rather than passing it in as a parameter, ensuring that it is freed properly. This dates back to when it was split off from ExecUpdate() to support merge. Per bug #17809 from Alexander Lakhin, and follow-up investigation of bug #17792, also from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v15, where MERGE was introduced, taking care to preserve backwards-compatibility of the trigger API in v15 for any extensions that might use it.

Michael Paquier	4493256c5c	Fix inconsistent error handling for GSS encryption in PQconnectPoll() ... The error cases for TLS and GSS encryption were inconsistent. After TLS fails, the connection is marked as dead and follow-up calls of PQconnectPoll() would return immediately, but GSS encryption was not doing that, so the connection would still have been allowed to enter the GSS handling code. This was handled incorrectly when gssencmode was set to "require". "prefer" was working correctly, and this could not happen under "disable" as GSS encryption would not be attempted. This commit makes the error handling of GSS encryption on par with TLS portion, fixing the case of gssencmode=require.

Andres Freund	e8a9750d03	amcheck: Fix FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() for xids before epoch 0 ... 64bit xids can't represent xids before epoch 0 (see also be504a3e97). When FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() was passed such an xid, it'd create a 64bit xid far into the future. Noticed while adding assertions in the course of investigating be504a3e97, as amcheck's test create such xids. To fix the issue, just return FirstNormalFullTransactionId in this case. A freshly initdb'd cluster already has a newer horizon. The most minimal version of this would make the messages for some detected corruptions differently inaccurate. To make those cases accurate, switch FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() to use the 32bit modulo difference between xid and nextxid to compute the 64bit xid, yielding sensible "in the future" / "in the past" answers.

Andres Freund	6d9588108a	amcheck: Fix ordering bug in update_cached_xid_range() ... The initialization order in update_cached_xid_range() was wrong, calling FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() before setting ->next_xid. FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() uses ->next_xid. In most situations this will not cause visible issues, because the next call to update_cached_xid_range() will use a less wrong ->next_xid. It's rare that xids advance fast enough for this to be a problem. Found while adding more asserts to the 64bit xid infrastructure.

Tom Lane	6170386c7f	Fix misbehavior in contrib/pg_trgm with an unsatisfiable regex. ... If the regex compiler can see that a regex is unsatisfiable (for example, '$foo') then it may emit an NFA having no arcs. pg_trgm's packGraph function did the wrong thing in this case; it would access off the end of a work array, and with bad luck could produce a corrupted output data structure causing more problems later. This could end with wrong answers or crashes in queries using a pg_trgm GIN or GiST index with such a regex. Fix by not trying to de-duplicate if there aren't at least 2 arcs.

The COPY documentation is quite clear that "COPY relation TO" copies rows from only the named table, not any inheritance children it may have.

Thomas Munro	af397c6c27	Fix race in SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. ... Commit bdaabb9b started skipping doomed transactions when building the list of possible conflicts for SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. That makes sense, because doomed transactions won't commit, but a couple of subtle things broke: 1. If all uncommitted r/w transactions are doomed, a READ ONLY transaction would arbitrarily not benefit from the safe snapshot optimization. It would not be taken immediately, and yet no other transaction would set SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE later. 2. In the same circumstances but with DEFERRABLE, GetSafeSnapshot() would correctly exit its wait loop without sleeping and then take the optimization in non-assert builds, but assert builds would fail a sanity check that SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE had been set by another transaction. This is similar to the case for PredXact->WritableSxactCount == 0. We should opt out immediately if our possibleUnsafeConflicts list is empty after filtering. The code to maintain the serializable global xmin is moved down below the new opt out site, because otherwise we'd have to reverse its effects before returning. Back-patch to all supported releases.
