A "break" statement erroneously left behind by commit a1c1af2a1
caused TopoSort to do the wrong thing if a lock's wait list
contained multiple members of the same locking group.
Because parallel workers don't normally need any locks not already
taken by their leader, this is very hard --- maybe impossible ---
to hit in production. Still, if it did happen, the queries involved
in an otherwise-resolvable deadlock would block until canceled.
In addition to removing the bogus "break", add an Assert showing
that the conflicting uses of the beforeConstraints[] array (for both
counts and flags) don't overlap, and add some commentary explaining
why not; because it's not obvious without explanation, IMHO.
Original report and patch from Rui Hai Jiang; additional assert
and commentary by me. Back-patch to 9.6 where the bug came in.

When copying the definition of an index rebuilt concurrently for the new
entry, the index information was taken directly from the old index using
the relation cache. In this case, predicates and expressions have
some post-processing to prepare things for the planner, which loses some
information including the collations added in any of them.
This inconsistency can cause issues when attempting for example a table
rewrite, and makes the new indexes rebuilt concurrently inconsistent
with the old entries.
In order to fix the problem, fetch expressions and predicates directly
from the catalog of the old entry, and fill in IndexInfo for the new
index with that. This makes the process more consistent with
DefineIndex(), and the code is refactored with the addition of a routine
to create an IndexInfo node.

We had no actual end-to-end test of NOTIFY message delivery. In the
core async.sql regression test, testing this is problematic because psql
traditionally prints the PID of the sending backend, making the output
unstable. We also have an isolation test script, but it likewise
failed to prove that delivery worked, because isolationtester.c had
no provisions for detecting/reporting NOTIFY messages.
Hence, add such provisions to isolationtester.c, and extend
async-notify.spec to include direct tests of basic NOTIFY functionality.
I also added tests showing that NOTIFY de-duplicates messages normally,
but not across subtransaction boundaries. (That's the historical
behavior since we introduced subtransactions, though perhaps we ought
to change it.)

If a test sends a notice just before blocking, it's possible on
slow machines for isolationtester to detect the blocked state before
it's consumed the notice. (For this to happen, the notice would have
to arrive after isolationtester has waited for data for 10ms, so on
fast/lightly-loaded machines it's hard to reproduce the failure.)
But, if we have seen the backend as blocked, it's certainly already
sent any notices it's going to send. Therefore, one more round of
PQconsumeInput and PQisBusy should be enough to collect and process
any such notices.
This appears to explain the instability noted in commit ebd499282, so undo
the hack therein to not print notices from insert-conflict-specconflict.

For its entire existence, isolationtester.c has forced client_min_messages
to WARNING, but that seems like a very poor choice of test design. It
should be up to individual test scripts to manage whether they emit notices
and to ensure that the results are stable. (There were no NOTICE messages
in the original set of isolation tests, so this was certainly dead code
when committed, but perhaps it was needed at some earlier point.)
It's possible that the original motivation was due to platform-dependent
variations in the timing of stdout vs. stderr output. That should be
moot since commits 73bcb76b7/6eda3e9c2, but just in case, adjust
isotesterNoticeProcessor to print to stdout not stderr. (stderr seems
like the wrong thing anyway: it should be for error printouts not expected
test output.)
Testing shows that the notices in insert-conflict-specconflict are indeed
a bit timing-unstable on very slow machines, so hide them; maybe we can
improve that later. Also, make the notices in plpgsql-toast a bit less
verbose than the original code would've had them.

When doing a schema-level or a database-level operation, a list of
relations to build is created which gets processed in parallel using
multiple connections, based on the recent refactoring for parallel slots

serialized fashion to prevent deadlocks, followed by the rest done in
parallel.
This new option is not compatible with --system as reindexing system

pg_timezone_names() tries to avoid showing the "Factory" zone in
the view, mainly because that has traditionally had a very long
"abbreviation" such as "Local time zone must be set--see zic manual page",
so that showing it messes up psql's formatting of the whole view.
Since tzdb version 2016g, IANA instead uses the abbreviation "-00",
which is sane enough that there's no reason to discriminate against it.
On the other hand, it emerges that FreeBSD and possibly other packagers
are so wedded to backwards compatibility that they hack the IANA data
to keep the old spelling --- and not just that old spelling, but even
older spellings that IANA used back in the stone age. This caused the
filter logic to fail to suppress "Factory" at all on such platforms,
though the formatting problem is definitely real in that case.
To solve both problems, get rid of the hard-wired assumption about
exactly what Factory's abbreviation is, and instead reject abbreviations
exceeding 31 characters. This will allow Factory to appear in the view
if and only if it's using the modern abbreviation.
In passing, simplify the code we add to zic.c to support "zic -P"
to remove its now-obsolete hacks to not print the Factory zone's
abbreviation. Unlike pg_timezone_names(), there's no reason for
that code to support old/nonstandard timezone data.

Some platforms create a file named "localtime" in the system
timezone directory, making it a copy or link to the active time
zone file. If Postgres is built with --with-system-tzdata, initdb
will see that file as an exact match to localtime(3)'s behavior,
and it may decide that "localtime" is the most preferred spelling of
the active zone. That's a very bad choice though, because it's
neither informative, nor portable, nor stable if someone changes
the system timezone setting. Extend the preference logic added by
commit e3846a00c so that we will prefer any other zone file that
matches localtime's behavior over "localtime".
On the same logic, also discriminate against "posixrules", which
is another not-really-a-zone file that is often present in the
timezone directory. (Since we install "posixrules" but not
"localtime", this change can affect the behavior of Postgres
with or without --with-system-tzdata.)
Note that this change doesn't prevent anyone from choosing these
pseudo-zones if they really want to (i.e., by setting TZ for initdb,
or modifying the timezone GUC later on). It just prevents initdb
from preferring these zone names when there are multiple matches to
localtime's behavior.

Since 15d8f8312 we assert that - and since 7ef04e4d2c, 4da597edf1
rely on - the slot type for an expression's
ecxt_{outer,inner,scan}tuple not changing, unless explicitly flagged
as such. That allows to either skip deforming (for a virtual tuple
slot) or optimize the code for JIT accelerated deforming
appropriately (for other known slot types).
This assumption was sometimes violated for grouping sets, when
nodeAgg.c internally uses tuplesorts, and the child node doesn't
return a TTSOpsMinimalTuple type slot. Detect that case, and flag that
the outer slot might not be "fixed".
It's probably worthwhile to optimize this further in the future, and
more granularly determine whether the slot is fixed. As we already
instantiate per-phase transition and equal expressions, we could
cheaply set the slot type appropriately for each phase. But that's a
separate change from this bugfix.
This commit does include a very minor optimization by avoiding to
create a slot for handling tuplesorts, if no such sorts are
performed. Previously we created that slot unnecessarily in the common
case of computing all grouping sets via hashing. The code looked too
confusing without that, as the conditions for needing a sort slot and
flagging that the slot type isn't fixed, are the same.

libpq failed to ignore Windows-style newlines in connection service files.
This normally wasn't a problem on Windows itself, because fgets() would
convert \r\n to just \n. But if libpq were running inside a program that
changes the default fopen mode to binary, it would see the \r's and think
they were data. In any case, it's project policy to ignore \r in text
files unconditionally, because people sometimes try to use files with
DOS-style newlines on Unix machines, where the C library won't hide that
from us.
Hence, adjust parseServiceFile() to ignore \r as well as \n at the end of
the line. In HEAD, go a little further and make it ignore all trailing
whitespace, to match what it's always done with leading whitespace.
In HEAD, also run around and fix up everyplace where we have
newline-chomping code to make all those places look consistent and
uniformly drop \r. It is not clear whether any of those changes are
fixing live bugs. Most of the non-cosmetic changes are in places that
are reading popen output, and the jury is still out as to whether popen
on Windows can return \r\n. (The Windows-specific code in pipe_read_line
seems to think so, but our lack of support for this elsewhere suggests
maybe it's not a problem in practice.) Hence, I desisted from applying
those changes to back branches, except in run_ssl_passphrase_command()

If the user creates a deferred constraint in a partition, and in a
transaction they cause the constraint's trigger execution to be deferred
until commit time *and* drop the constraint, then when commit time comes
the queued trigger will fail to run because the trigger object will have
been dropped.
This is explained because when a constraint gets dropped in a
partitioned table, the recursion to drop the ones in partitions is done
by the dependency mechanism, not by ALTER TABLE traversing the recursion
tree as in all other cases. In the non-partitioned case, this problem
is avoided by checking that the table is not "in use" by alter-table;
other alter-table subcommands that recurse to partitions do that check
for each partition. But the dependency mechanism doesn't have a way to
do that. Fix the problem by applying the same check to all partitions
during ALTER TABLE's "prep" phase, which correctly raises the necessary
error.

The logic in ATExecDropColumn that rejects dropping partition key
columns is quite an inadequate defense, because it doesn't execute
in cases where a column needs to be dropped due to cascade from
something that only the column, not the whole partitioned table,
depends on. That leaves us with a badly broken partitioned table;
even an attempt to load its relcache entry will fail.
We really need to have explicit pg_depend entries that show that the
column can't be dropped without dropping the whole table. Hence,
add those entries. In v12 and HEAD, bump catversion to ensure that
partitioned tables will have such entries. We can't do that in

Some code could get confused when certain catalog state involving both
identity and serial sequences was present, perhaps during an attempt
to upgrade the latter to the former. Specifically, dropping the
default of a serial column maintains the ownership of the sequence by
the column, and so it would then be possible to afterwards make the
column an identity column that would now own two sequences. This
causes the code that looks up the identity sequence to error out,
making the new identity column inoperable until the ownership of the
previous sequence is released.
To fix this, make the identity sequence lookup only consider sequences
with the appropriate dependency type for an identity sequence, so it
only ever finds one (unless something else is broken). In the above
example, the old serial sequence would then be ignored. Reorganize
the various owned-sequence-lookup functions a bit to make this
clearer.

In nodeAppend.c and nodeMergeAppend.c there were some foreach loops which
looped over the list of subplans and only performed any work if the
subplan index was found in a Bitmapset. With the old linked list
implementation of List, this form made sense as accessing the Nth list
element was O(N). However, thanks to 1cff1b95a we now have array-based
lists, so accessing the Nth element has become O(1).
Here we make the most of the O(1) lookups and just loop over the set
members of the Bitmapset with bms_next_member(). This performs slightly
better when a small number of the list items are in the Bitmapset. Micro
benchmarks show that when the Bitmapset contains all or most of the list
items then the new code is ever so slightly slower. In practice, the cost
is so small that it's drowned out by various other things such as locking
the relations belonging to each subplan, etc.
The primary goal here is to leave better code examples around which benefit
better from the new list implementation.
