In a psql session, if the connection to the server is abruptly cut, the
referenced connection would become NULL as of CheckConnection(). This
could cause a hard crash with psql if attempting to connect by reusing
the past connection's data because of a null-pointer dereference with
either PQhost() or PQdb(). This issue is fixed by making sure that no
reuse of the past connection is done if it does not exist.
Issue has been introduced by 6e5f8d4, so backpatch down to 12.

pg_rewind needs to copy from the source cluster to the target cluster a
set of relation blocks changed from the previous checkpoint where WAL
forked up to the end of WAL on the target. Building this list of
relation blocks requires a range of WAL segments that may not be present
anymore on the target's pg_wal, causing pg_rewind to fail. It is
possible to work around this issue by copying manually the WAL segments
needed but this may lead to some extra and actually useless work.
This commit introduces a new option allowing pg_rewind to use a
restore_command while doing the rewind by grabbing the parameter value
of restore_command from the target cluster configuration. This allows
the rewind operation to be more reliable, so as only the WAL segments
needed by the rewind are restored from the archives.
In order to be able to do that, a new routine is added to src/common/ to
allow frontend tools to restore files from archives using an
already-built restore command. This version is more simple than the
backend equivalent as there is no need to handle the non-recovery case.

The stats_ext test is not expecting that autovacuum will touch
any of its tables; an expectation falsified by commit b07642dbc.
Although I'm suspicious that there's something else going on that
makes extended stats estimates not 100% reproducible, it's pretty
easy to demonstrate that there are places in this test that fail
if an autovacuum updates the table's stats unexpectedly.
Hence, revert the band-aid changes made by 2dc16efed and 24566b359
in favor of summarily disabling autovacuum for all the tables that
this test checks estimated rowcounts for.
Also remove an evidently obsolete comment at the head of the test.

When recovery target is reached and recovery is paused because of
recovery_target_action=pause, executing pg_wal_replay_resume() causes
the standby to promote, i.e., the recovery to end. So, in this case,
the previous message "Execute pg_wal_replay_resume() to continue"
logged was confusing because pg_wal_replay_resume() doesn't cause
the recovery to continue.
This commit improves the message logged when recovery is paused,
and the proper message is output based on what (pg_wal_replay_pause

Buildfarm experience shows that this function can fail with ENOENT
if some other process unlinks a file between when we read the directory

not noticed it until 085b6b667 added regression test coverage.

The existing implementation of the ltree ~ lquery match operator is
sufficiently complex and undocumented that it's hard to tell exactly
what it does. But one thing it clearly gets wrong is the combination
of NOT symbols (!) and '*' symbols. A pattern such as '*.!foo.*'
should, by any ordinary understanding of regular expression behavior,
match any ltree that has at least one label that's not "foo". As best
we can tell by experimentation, what it's actually matching is any
ltree in which *no* label is "foo". That's surprising, and not at all
what the documentation says.
Now, that's arguably a useful behavior, so if we rewrite to fix the
bug we should provide some other way to get it. To do so, add the
ability to attach lquery quantifiers to non-'*' items as well as '*'s.
Then the pattern '!foo{,}' expresses "any ltree in which no label is
foo". For backwards compatibility, the default quantifier for non-'*'
items has to be "{1}", although the default for '*' items is '{,}'.
I wouldn't have done it like that in a green field, but it's not
totally horrible.
Armed with that, rewrite checkCond() from scratch. Treating '*' and
non-'*' items alike makes it simpler, not more complicated, so that
the function actually gets a lot shorter than it was.

Ensure that the type name is mentioned in all cases (bare "syntax error"

used in the documentation. Phrase error position reports as "at

character position values be 1-based not 0-based. Provide a position

we can use it in an error callback function. We can use the cached

Commit 7c2dbc69 reorganized _bt_truncate() in a way that enables a
further simplification that I (pgeoghegan) missed: Since we mark the
tuple that is returned to the caller as a pivot tuple before the point
where its heap TID is set as of 7c2dbc69, it is possible to use the high
level BTreeTupleGetHeapTID() inline function to get an item pointer. Do
it that way now. This approach is clearer and more maintainable.
This reverts commit 2aa6e33, that added a fast path to skip
anti-wraparound and non-aggressive autovacuum jobs (these have no sense
as anti-wraparound implies aggressive). With a cluster using a high
amount of relations with a portion of them being heavily updated, this
could cause autovacuum to lock down, with autovacuum workers attempting
repeatedly those jobs on the same relations for the same database, that
just kept being skipped. This lock down can be solved with a manual
VACUUM FREEZE.
Justin King has reported one environment where the issue happened, and
Julien Rouhaud and I have been able to reproduce it in a second
environment. With a very aggressive autovacuum_freeze_max_age,
triggering those jobs with pgbench is a matter of minutes, and hitting
the lock down is a lot harder (my local tests failed to do that).
Note that anti-wraparound and non-aggressive jobs can only be triggered
on a subset of shared catalogs:
- pg_auth_members
- pg_authid
- pg_database
- pg_replication_origin
- pg_shseclabel
- pg_subscription
- pg_tablespace
While the lock down was possible down to v12, the root cause of those
jobs is a much older issue, which needs more analysis.

Simplify _bt_truncate(), the routine that generates truncated leaf page
high keys. Remove a micro-optimization that avoided a second palloc0()
call (this was used when a heap TID was needed in the final pivot tuple,
though only when the index happened to not be an INCLUDE index).
Removing this dubious micro-optimization allows _bt_truncate() to use
the index_truncate_tuple() indextuple.c utility routine in all cases.
This was already the common case.
This commit is a HEAD-only follow up to bugfix commit 4b42a899.
The recheck isn't needed anymore, as RelationGetBufferForTuple() now
extends the relation with RBM_ZERO_AND_LOCK. Previously we needed to
handle the fact that relation extension extended the relation and then
separately acquired a lock on the page - while expecting that the page
is empty.

Early versions of opclass options patch uses zero support procedure as opclass
options procedure. This commit removes rudiments of it, which were committed
in 911e702077. Also, it implements correct handling of amoptsprocnum == 0.
INCLUDE indexes failed to have their non-key attributes physically
truncated away in certain rare cases. This led to physically larger
pivot tuples that contained useless non-key attribute values. The
impact on users should be negligible, but this is still clearly a
regression (Postgres 11 supports INCLUDE indexes, and yet was not
affected).
The bug appeared in commit dd299df8, which introduced "true" suffix
truncation of key attributes.

Backpatch: 12-, where "true" suffix truncation was introduced.
PostgreSQL provides set of template index access methods, where opclasses have
much freedom in the semantics of indexing. These index AMs are GiST, GIN,
SP-GiST and BRIN. There opclasses define representation of keys, operations on
them and supported search strategies. So, it's natural that opclasses may be
faced some tradeoffs, which require user-side decision. This commit implements
opclass parameters allowing users to set some values, which tell opclass how to
index the particular dataset.
This commit doesn't introduce new storage in system catalog. Instead it uses
pg_attribute.attoptions, which is used for table column storage options but
unused for index attributes.
In order to evade changing signature of each opclass support function, we
implement unified way to pass options to opclass support functions. Options
are set to fn_expr as the constant bytea expression. It's possible due to the
fact that opclass support functions are executed outside of expressions, so
fn_expr is unused for them.
This commit comes with some examples of opclass options usage. We parametrize
signature length in GiST. That applies to multiple opclasses: tsvector_ops,
gist__intbig_ops, gist_ltree_ops, gist__ltree_ops, gist_trgm_ops and
gist_hstore_ops. Also we parametrize maximum number of integer ranges for
gist__int_ops. However, the main future usage of this feature is expected
to be json, where users would be able to specify which way to index particular
json parts.
Catversion is bumped.

GetLocaleInfoEx() can fail on strings that setlocale() was perfectly
happy with. A common way for that to happen is if the locale string
is actually a Unix-style string, say "et_EE.UTF-8". In that case,
what's after the dot is an encoding name, not a Windows codepage number;
blindly treating it as a codepage number led to failure, with a fairly
silly error message. Hence, check to see if what's after the dot is
all digits, and if not, treat it as a literal encoding name rather than
a codepage number. This will do the right thing with many Unix-style
locale strings, and produce a more sensible error message otherwise.
Somewhat independently of that, treat a zero (CP_ACP) result from
GetLocaleInfoEx() as meaning that we must use UTF-8 encoding.

When certain parameters are changed on a physical replication primary,
this is communicated to standbys using the XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE WAL
record. The standby then checks whether its own settings are at least
as big as the ones on the primary. If not, the standby shuts down
with a fatal error.
The correspondence of settings between primary and standby is required
because those settings influence certain shared memory sizings that
are required for processing WAL records that the primary might send.
For example, if the primary sends a prepared transaction, the standby
must have had max_prepared_transaction set appropriately or it won't
be able to process those WAL records.
However, fatally shutting down the standby immediately upon receipt of
the parameter change record might be a bit of an overreaction. The
resources related to those settings are not required immediately at
that point, and might never be required if the activity on the primary
does not exhaust all those resources. If we just let the standby roll
on with recovery, it will eventually produce an appropriate error when
those resources are used.
So this patch relaxes this a bit. Upon receipt of
XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE, we still check the settings but only issue a
warning and set a global flag if there is a problem. Then when we
actually hit the resource issue and the flag was set, we issue another
warning message with relevant information. At that point we pause
recovery, so a hot standby remains usable. We also repeat the last
warning message once a minute so it is harder to miss or ignore.

The additional information displayed will be block number for error
occurring while processing heap and index name for error occurring
while processing the index.
This will help us in diagnosing the problems that occur during a vacuum.
For ex. due to corruption (either caused by bad hardware or by some bug)
if we get some error while vacuuming, it can help us identify the block
in heap and or additional index information.
It sets up an error context callback to display additional information
with the error. During different phases of vacuum (heap scan, heap
vacuum, index vacuum, index clean up, heap truncate), we update the error
context callback to display appropriate information. We can extend it to
a bit more granular level like adding the phases for FSM operations or for
prefetching the blocks while truncating. However, I felt that it requires
adding many more error callback function calls and can make the code a bit
