These parameters are available for SSPI authentication only, to make
it possible to make it behave more like "normal gssapi", while
making it possible to maintain compatibility.
compat_realm is on by default, but can be turned off to make the
authentication use the full Kerberos realm instead of the NetBIOS name.
upn_username is off by default, and can be turned on to return the users
Kerberos UPN rather than the SAM-compatible name (a user in Active
Directory can have both a legacy SAM-compatible username and a new
Kerberos one. Normally they are the same, but not always)

Output order from the pg_indexes view might vary depending on the

added by commit 386e3d7609.
Per buildfarm.
OpenSSL has an unfortunate tendency to mix per-session state error
handling with per-thread error handling. This can cause problems when
programs that link to libpq with OpenSSL enabled have some other use of
OpenSSL; without care, one caller of OpenSSL may cause problems for the
other caller. Backend code might similarly be affected, for example
when a third party extension independently uses OpenSSL without taking
the appropriate precautions.
To fix, don't trust other users of OpenSSL to clear the per-thread error
queue. Instead, clear the entire per-thread queue ahead of certain I/O
operations when it appears that there might be trouble (these I/O
operations mostly need to call SSL_get_error() to check for success,
which relies on the queue being empty). This is slightly aggressive,
but it's pretty clear that the other callers have a very dubious claim
to ownership of the per-thread queue. Do this is both frontend and
backend code.
Finally, be more careful about clearing our own error queue, so as to
not cause these problems ourself. It's possibly that control previously
did not always reach SSLerrmessage(), where ERR_get_error() was supposed
to be called to clear the queue's earliest code. Make sure
ERR_get_error() is always called, so as to spare other users of OpenSSL
the possibility of similar problems caused by libpq (as opposed to
problems caused by a third party OpenSSL library like PHP's OpenSSL
extension). Again, do this is both frontend and backend code.

This allows parallel aggregation to use them. It may seem surprising
that we use float8_combine for both float4_accum and float8_accum

Don't try to examine S_ISLNK(st.st_mode) after a failed lstat().
It's undefined.
Also, if the lstat() reported ENOENT, we do not wish that to be a hard
error, but the code might nonetheless treat it as one (giving an entirely
misleading error message, too) depending on luck-of-the-draw as to what
S_ISLNK() returned.
Don't throw error for ENOENT from rmdir(), either. (We're not really
expecting ENOENT because we just stat'd the file successfully; but
if we're going to allow ENOENT in the symlink code path, surely the
directory code path should too.)
Generate an appropriate errcode for its-the-wrong-type-of-file complaints.
(ERRCODE_SYSTEM_ERROR doesn't seem appropriate, and failing to write

Benchmarking has shown that the current number of clog buffers limits

We've benchmarked the cost of increasing the limit by benchmarking worst

There are a number of more complex patches flying around to address

In cases where joins use multiple columns we currently assess each join
separately causing gross mis-estimates for join cardinality.
This patch adds use of FK information for the first time into the
planner. When FKs are present and we have multi-column join information,
plan estimates will be drastically improved. Cases with multiple FKs
are handled, though partial matches are ignored currently.
Net effect is substantial performance improvements for joins in many
common cases. Additional planning time is isolated to cases that are
currently performing poorly, measured at 0.08 - 0.15 ms.
Please watch for planner performance regressions; circumstances seem
unlikely but the law of unintended consequences may apply somewhen.
Additional complex tests welcome to prove this before release.

Extracted from pending unique-join patch, since this is a rather large
delta but it's simply moving code out into separately-accessible
subroutines.
I (tgl) did choose to add a bit more logic to rel_supports_distinctness,

While prior to this patch the user-visible effect on the database
of any set of successfully committed serializable transactions was
always consistent with some one-at-a-time order of execution of
those transactions, the presence of declarative constraints could
allow errors to occur which were not possible in any such ordering,
and developers had no good workarounds to prevent user-facing
errors where they were not necessary or desired. This patch adds
a check for serialization failure ahead of duplicate key checking
so that if a developer explicitly (redundantly) checks for the
pre-existing value they will get the desired serialization failure
where the problem is caused by a concurrent serializable
transaction; otherwise they will get a duplicate key error.
While it would be better if the reads performed by the constraints
could count as part of the work of the transaction for
serialization failure checking, and we will hopefully get there
some day, this patch allows a clean and reliable way for developers
to work around the issue. In many cases existing code will already
be doing the right thing for this to "just work".

Now that all of the infrastructure exists, add in the ability to
dump out the ACLs of the objects inside of pg_catalog or the ACLs
for objects which are members of extensions, but only if they have
been changed from their original values.
The original values are tracked in pg_init_privs. When pg_dump'ing
9.6-and-above databases, we will dump out the ACLs for all objects
in pg_catalog and the ACLs for all extension members, where the ACL
has been changed from the original value which was set during either
initdb or CREATE EXTENSION.
This should not change dumps against pre-9.6 databases.

Historically, the "dump" component of the namespace has been used
to decide if the objects inside of the namespace should be dumped
also. Given that "dump" is now a bitmask and may be partial, and
we may want to dump out all components of the namespace object but
only some of the components of objects contained in the namespace,
create a "dump_contains" bitmask which will represent what components
of the objects inside of a namespace should be dumped out.
No behavior change here, but in preparation for a change where we
will dump out just the ACLs of objects in pg_catalog, but we might
not dump out the ACL of the pg_catalog namespace itself (for instance,
when it hasn't been changed from the value set at initdb time).

pg_dump has historically used a simple boolean 'dump' value to indicate
if a given object should be included in the dump or not. Instead, use
a bitmap which breaks down the components of an object into their
distinct pieces and use that bitmap to only include the components
requested.
This does not include any behavioral change, but is in preperation for
the change to dump out just ACLs for objects in pg_catalog.

This new catalog holds the privileges which the system was
initialized with at initdb time, along with any permissions set
by extensions at CREATE EXTENSION time. This allows pg_dump

changed from what they were set to at initdb/extension-creation
time and handle those changes appropriately.

Some object types have names that are only unique for one table. But
for those we generally didn't put the table name into the dump TOC tag.
So it was impossible to identify these objects if the same name was used

Fix by adding the table name to the TOC tag, so that it now reads

Previously synchronous replication offered only the ability to confirm
that all changes made by a transaction had been transferred to at most
one synchronous standby server.
This commit extends synchronous replication so that it supports multiple
synchronous standby servers. It enables users to consider one or more
standby servers as synchronous, and increase the level of transaction
durability by ensuring that transaction commits wait for replies from
all of those synchronous standbys.
Multiple synchronous standby servers are configured in
synchronous_standby_names which is extended to support new syntax of
'num_sync ( standby_name [ , ... ] )', where num_sync specifies
the number of synchronous standbys that transaction commits need to
wait for replies from and standby_name is the name of a standby
server.
The syntax of 'standby_name [ , ... ]' which was used in 9.5 or before
is also still supported. It's the same as new syntax with num_sync=1.
This commit doesn't include "quorum commit" feature which was discussed
in pgsql-hackers. Synchronous standbys are chosen based on their priorities.
synchronous_standby_names determines the priority of each standby for
being chosen as a synchronous standby. The standbys whose names appear
earlier in the list are given higher priority and will be considered as
synchronous. Other standby servers appearing later in this list
represent potential synchronous standbys.
The regression test for multiple synchronous standbys is not included
in this commit. It should come later.
