Particularly on windows it's useful to look up dependencies via cmake, instead
of pkg-config. Meson supports doing so. Unfortunately the dependency names
used by various projects often differs between their pkg-config and cmake
files.
This would look a lot neater if we could rely on meson >= 0.60.0...

If a view has some updatable and some non-updatable columns, we failed
to verify updatability of any columns for which an INSERT or UPDATE
on the view explicitly specifies a DEFAULT item (unless the view has
a declared default for that column, which is rare anyway, and one
would almost certainly not write one for a non-updatable column).
This would lead to an unexpected "attribute number N not found in

If vacuum fails to prune a tuple killed before OldestXmin, it will later
find that tuple dead in lazy_scan_prune() and loop infinitely.
Add a test reproducing this scenario to the recovery suite which creates
a table on a primary, updates the table to generate dead tuples for
vacuum, and then, during the vacuum, uses a replica to force
GlobalVisState->maybe_needed on the primary to move backwards and
precede the value of OldestXmin set at the beginning of vacuuming the
table.
This commit is separate from the fix in case there are test stability

If vacuum fails to remove a tuple with xmax older than
VacuumCutoffs->OldestXmin and younger than GlobalVisState->maybe_needed,
it will loop infinitely in lazy_scan_prune(), which compares tuples'
visibility information to OldestXmin.
Starting in version 14, which uses GlobalVisState for visibility testing
during pruning, it is possible for GlobalVisState->maybe_needed to
precede OldestXmin if maybe_needed is forced to go backward while vacuum
is running. This can happen if a disconnected standby with a running
transaction older than VacuumCutoffs->OldestXmin reconnects to the
primary after vacuum initially calculates GlobalVisState and OldestXmin.
Fix this by having vacuum always remove tuples older than OldestXmin
during pruning. This is okay because the standby won't replay the tuple
removal until the tuple is removable. Thus, the worst that can happen is
a recovery conflict.

Commit d844cd75a disallowed rewind in a non-scrollable cursor to resolve
anomalies arising from such a cursor operation. However, this failed to
take into account the assumption in postgres_fdw that when rescanning a
foreign relation, it can rewind the cursor created for scanning the
foreign relation without specifying the SCROLL option, regardless of its
scrollability, causing this error when it tried to do such a rewind in a

recreate the cursor, regardless of its scrollability, when rescanning
the foreign relation. (If we had a way to check its scrollability, we
could improve this by rewinding it if it is scrollable and recreating it

For utility statements defined within a function, the query tree is
copied to a PlannedStmt as utility commands do not require planning.
However, the query ID was missing from the information passed down.
This leads to plugins relying on the query ID like pg_stat_statements to
not be able to track utility statements within function calls. Tests
are added to check this behavior, depending on pg_stat_statements.track.
This is an old bug. Now, query IDs for utilities are compiled using

Winsock only signals an FD_CLOSE event once if the other end of the

constructs and destroys a new event handle every time, with unlucky
timing we can lose it and hang. We get away with this only if the other
end disconnects non-gracefully, because FD_CLOSE is repeatedly signaled
in that case.
To fix this design flaw in our Windows socket support fundamentally,
we'd probably need to rearchitect it so that a single event handle
exists for the lifetime of a socket, or switch to completely different
multiplexing or async I/O APIs. That's going to be a bigger job
and probably wouldn't be back-patchable.

When a partitioned table has an index that doesn't support a constraint,
but a partition has an equivalent index that does, then a DETACH
operation would misbehave: a crash in assertion-enabled systems (because
we fail to find the constraint in the parent that we expect to), or a
broken coninhcount value (-1) in production systems (because we blindly
believe that we've successfully detached the parent).
While we should reject an ATTACH of a partition with such an index, we
have failed to do so in existing releases, so adding an error in stable
releases might break the (unlikely) existing applications that rely on
this behavior. At this point I don't even want to reject them in
master, because it'd break pg_upgrade if such databases exist, and there
would be no easy way to fix existing databases without expensive index
rebuilds.
(Later on we could add ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT USING INDEX to
partitioned tables, which would allow the user to fix such patterns. At
that point we could add more restrictions to prevent the problem from
its root.)
Also, add a test case that leaves one table in this condition, so that
we can verify that pg_upgrade continues to work if we later decide to
change the policy on the master branch.

When creating and initializing a logical slot, the restart_lsn is set
to the latest WAL insertion point (or the latest replay point on
standbys). Subsequently, WAL records are decoded from that point to
find the start point for extracting changes in the
DecodingContextFindStartpoint() function. Since the initial
restart_lsn could be in the middle of a transaction, the start point
must be a consistent point where we won't see the data for partial
transactions.
Previously, when not building a full snapshot, serialized snapshots
were restored, and the SnapBuild jumps to the consistent state even
while finding the start point. Consequently, the slot's restart_lsn
and confirmed_flush could be set to the middle of a transaction. This
could lead to various unexpected consequences. Specifically, there
were reports of logical decoding decoding partial transactions, and
assertion failures occurred because only subtransactions were decoded
without decoding their top-level transaction until decoding the commit
record.
To resolve this issue, the changes prevent restoring the serialized
snapshot and jumping to the consistent state while finding the start
point.
On v17 and HEAD, a flag indicating whether snapshot restores should be
skipped has been added to the SnapBuild struct, and SNAPBUILD_VERSION
has been bumpded.
On backbranches, the flag is stored in the LogicalDecodingContext
instead, preserving on-disk compatibility.

For an inner_unique join, we always assume that the executor will stop
scanning for matches after the first match. Therefore, for a mergejoin
that is inner_unique and whose mergeclauses are sufficient to identify a
match, we set the skip_mark_restore flag to true, indicating that the
executor need not do mark/restore calls. However, merge-right-anti-join
did not get this memo and continues scanning the inner side for matches
after the first match. If there are duplicates in the outer scan, we
may incorrectly skip matching some inner tuples, which can lead to wrong
results.
Here we fix this issue by ensuring that merge-right-anti-join also
advances to next outer tuple after the first match in inner_unique
cases. This also saves cycles by avoiding unnecessary scanning of inner
tuples after the first match.
Although hash-right-anti-join does not suffer from this wrong results
issue, we apply the same change to it as well, to help save cycles for
the same reason.

macOS 15's SDK pulls in headers related to <regex.h> when we include

1. Deal with standard-clobbering macros by undefining them all first.
POSIX says they are "symbolic constants". If they are macros, this
allows us to redefine them. If they are enums or variables, our macros
will hide them.
2. Deal with standard-clobbering types by giving our types pg_
prefixes, and then using macros to redirect xxx_t -> pg_xxx_t.
After including our "regex/regex.h", the system <regex.h> is hidden,

whatever it allocates will be cleaned up when we're done processing

then whatever gets allocated before the next switch into
MessageContext will be permanently leaked in TopMemoryContext,
because CommitTransactionCommand sets CurrentMemoryContext to
TopMemoryContext. There are observable leaks associated with

Commit 5b562644fe added a comment that
SetRelationHasSubclass() callers must hold this lock. When commit
17f206fbc8 extended use of this column to
partitioned indexes, it didn't take the lock. As the latter commit
message mentioned, we currently never reset a partitioned index to
relhassubclass=f. That largely avoids harm from the lock omission. The
cause for fixing this now is to unblock introducing a rule about locks
required to heap_update() a pg_class row. This might cause more
deadlocks. It gives minor user-visible benefits:
- If an ALTER INDEX SET TABLESPACE runs concurrently with ALTER TABLE
ATTACH PARTITION or CREATE PARTITION OF, one transaction blocks
instead of failing with "tuple concurrently updated". (Many cases of
DDL concurrency still fail that way.)

This could have caused spurious failures only on SPARC Linux, because
today's only todo_start tests for that platform. Back-patch to v16,
where Meson support first appeared.

errfinish() assumes that the __FUNC__ and __FILE__ arguments it's
passed are compile-time constant strings that can just be pointed
to rather than physically copied. However, it's possible for LLVM
to generate code in which those pointers point into a dynamically
loaded code segment. If that segment gets unloaded before we're
done with the ErrorData struct, we have dangling pointers that
will lead to SIGSEGV. In simple cases that won't happen, because we
won't unload LLVM code before end of transaction. But it's possible
to happen if the error is thrown within end-of-transaction code run by
_SPI_commit or _SPI_rollback, because since commit 2e517818f those
functions clean up by ending the transaction and starting a new one.
Rather than fixing this by adding pstrdup() overhead to every
elog/ereport sequence, let's fix it by copying the risky pointers
in CopyErrorData(). That solves it for _SPI_commit/_SPI_rollback
because they use that function to preserve the error data across
the transaction end/restart sequence; and it seems likely that
any other code doing something similar would need to do that too.
I'm suspicious that this behavior amounts to an LLVM bug (or a
bug in our use of it?), because it implies that string constant
references that should be pointer-equal according to a naive
understanding of C semantics will sometimes not be equal.
However, even if it is a bug and someday gets fixed, we'll have
to cope with the current behavior for a long time to come.
Report and patch by me. Back-patch to all supported branches.

We did not recover the subtransaction IDs of prepared transactions
when starting a hot standby from a shutdown checkpoint. As a result,
such subtransactions were considered as aborted, rather than
in-progress. That would lead to hint bits being set incorrectly, and
the subtransactions suddenly becoming visible to old snapshots when
the prepared transaction was committed.
To fix, update pg_subtrans with prepared transactions's subxids when
starting hot standby from a shutdown checkpoint. The snapshots taken
from that state need to be marked as "suboverflowed", so that we also
check the pg_subtrans.
Backport to all supported versions.

This went unnoticed, because only a few existing callers of
BackgroundPsql->query used the result, and the ones that did were not
bothered by an extra newline. I noticed because I was about to add a
new test that checks the result.
Backport to all supported versions, since I just backported the
BackgroundPsql facility to all supported versions too.
Backport the new BackgroundPsql modules and the constructor functions,
background_psql() and interactive_psql, to all supported
branches. That makes it easier to backpatch tests that use it.
BackgroundPsql was introduced in version 16. On version 16, this
commit backports just the new timeout argument from master (commit
334f512f45). On older branches, the whole facility. This includes the
change to `use warnings FATAL => 'all'`, which we haven't otherwise
backported, but it seems good to keep the file identical across
branches.

In pgoutput, when converting the child table's tuple format to match the
parent table's, we temporarily create a new slot to store the converted
tuple. However, we missed to drop such temporary slots, leading to
resource leakage.

When pgstats is initialized for a backend, it uses dsa_attach_in_place()
without a "segment" provided. Hence, no callback is registered to
automatically release the DSA attached once a backend exits. Not doing
any cleanup causes the reference count of the pgstats DSA to
continuously increment, at some point overflowing it (the more the
number of connections, the faster it is to reach this state). Once the
reference count overflows and then gets back to 0, new backends are not
able to attach to the pgstats DSA, failing startup.
This issue is resolved by adding in the pgstats shutdown hook a call to
dsa_release_in_place(), ensuring that the DSA attached at backend
startup is correctly released, keeping the reference count at bay.
The author of this patch has been able to see this issue on a server
with a long uptime and a high connection turnover.
Issue introduced by 5891c7a8ed, so backpatch down to 15.
