Partition pruning wrongly assumed that, for a table partitioned on a
boolean column, a clause in the form "boolcol IS NOT false" and "boolcol
IS NOT true" could be inverted to correspondingly become "boolcol IS true"
and "boolcol IS false". These are not equivalent as the NOT version
matches the opposite boolean value *and* NULLs. This incorrect assumption
meant that partition pruning pruned away partitions that could contain
NULL values.
Here we fix this by correctly not pruning partitions which could store
NULLs.
To be affected by this, the table must be partitioned by a NULLable boolean
column and queries would have to contain "boolcol IS NOT false" or "boolcol
IS NOT true". This could result in queries filtering out NULL values
with a LIST partitioned table and "ERROR: invalid strategy number 0"
for RANGE and HASH partitioned tables.

Before the previous commit, the test could hang until
LOG_SNAPSHOT_INTERVAL_MS (15s), until checkpoint_timeout (300s), or
indefinitely. An indefinite hang was awfully improbable. It entailed
the test reaching checkpoint_timeout before the
DecodingContextFindStartpoint() of a CREATE SUBSCRIPTION, yet after the
preceding WAL record. Back-patch to v16, which introduced the test.

intoasc(), a wrapper for PGTYPESinterval_to_asc that converts an
interval to its textual representation, used a plain memcpy() when
copying its result. This could miss a zero-termination in the result
string, leading to an incorrect result.
The routines in informix.c do not provide the length of their result
buffer, which would allow a replacement of strcpy() to safer strlcpy()
calls, but this requires an ABI breakage and that cannot happen in
back-branches.

A child table can specify a compression or storage method different
from its parents. This was previously an error. (But this was
inconsistently enforced because for example the settings could be
changed later using ALTER TABLE.) This now also allows an explicit
override if multiple parents have different compression or storage
settings, which was previously an error that could not be overridden.
The compression and storage properties remains unchanged in a child
inheriting from parent(s) after its creation, i.e., when using ALTER
TABLE ... INHERIT. (This is not changed.)
Before this change, the error detail would mention the first pair of
conflicting parent compression or storage methods. But with this
change it waits till the child specification is considered by which
time we may have encountered many such conflicting pairs. Hence the
error detail after this change does not include the conflicting
compression/storage methods. Those can be obtained from parent
definitions if necessary. The code to maintain list of all
conflicting methods or even the first conflicting pair does not seem
worth the convenience it offers. This change is inline with what we
do with conflicting default values.
Before this commit, the specified storage method could be stored in
ColumnDef::storage (CREATE TABLE ... LIKE) or ColumnDef::storage_name
(CREATE TABLE ...). This caused the MergeChildAttribute() and
MergeInheritedAttribute() to ignore a storage method specified in the
child definition since it looked only at ColumnDef::storage. This
commit removes ColumnDef::storage and instead uses
ColumnDef::storage_name to save any storage method specification. This
is similar to how compression method specification is handled.

Per buildfarm animal mylodon, the plan for this test was sometimes
swapping the join order for tenk1 and tenk2. Given that add_path() has
no code that would cause this fluctuation when given paths with consistent
costs, this indicates that the costs must be fluctuating in some runs.
The only proven reason I've seen where that could happen was slight
variations in pg_class.relpages for some tables. This was demonstrated to
be true by f03a9ca43 and related discussion. Manually adjusting tenk2's
pg_class.relpages by subtracting just 1 page does cause the plan to change
for this test.
Here we've not gone to the same lengths to prove that's what's going on
in this case. Proving that does not seem worth the time. Let's just
shrink one side of the join so the additional cost of the swapped join
order is sufficiently different that if the relpages estimate is off a few
pages that the planner still shouldn't swap the join order.

pathkeys_useful_for_ordering() contained some needless checks to return
0 when either root->query_pathkeys or pathkeys lists were empty. This is
already handled by pathkeys_count_contained_in(), so let's have it do the
work instead of having redundant checks.
Similarly, in pathkeys_useful_for_grouping(), checking pathkeys is an
empty list just before looping over it isn't required. Technically,
neither is the list empty check for group_pathkeys, but I felt a bit
more work would have to be done to get the equivalent behavior if we'd
left it up to the foreach loop to call list_member_ptr().
This was noticed by Andy while he was reviewing a patch to improve the
UNION planner. Since that patch adds another function similar to
pathkeys_useful_for_ordering() and since I wasn't planning to copy these
redundant checks over to the new function, let's adjust the existing

In commit 97550c0711, we added a similar check to the SIGTERM
handler for the startup process. This commit adds this check to
backend signal handlers installed with pqsignal(). This is done by
using a wrapper function that performs the check before calling the
actual handler.
The hope is that this will offer more general protection against
child processes of Postgres backends inadvertently modifying shared
memory due to inherited signal handlers. Another potential
follow-up improvement is to use this wrapper handler function to
restore errno instead of relying on each individual handler
function to do so.

For most purposes, multiranges act like dependent objects of the
associated range type: you can't create them separately or drop them
separately. This is like the way that autogenerated array types
behave. However, a couple of points were overlooked: array types
automatically track the ownership of their base type, and array types
do not have their own permissions but use those of the base type,
while multiranges didn't emulate those behaviors. This is fairly
broken, mainly because pg_dump doesn't think it needs to worry about
multiranges as separate objects, and thus it fails to dump/restore
ownership or permissions of multiranges.
There's no apparent value in letting a multirange diverge from
its parent's ownership or permissions, so let's make them act like
arrays in these respects. However, we continue to let multiranges
be renamed or moved to a different schema independently of their
parent, since that doesn't break anything.

The failure is that the remote slot is not synchronized after the same

This commit introduces a new SQL function pg_sync_replication_slots()
which is used to synchronize the logical replication slots from the
primary server to the physical standby so that logical replication can be
resumed after a failover or planned switchover.
A new 'synced' flag is introduced in pg_replication_slots view, indicating
whether the slot has been synchronized from the primary server. On a
standby, synced slots cannot be dropped or consumed, and any attempt to
perform logical decoding on them will result in an error.
The logical replication slots on the primary can be synchronized to the
hot standby by using the 'failover' parameter of
pg-create-logical-replication-slot(), or by using the 'failover' option of
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION during slot creation, and then calling
pg_sync_replication_slots() on standby. For the synchronization to work,
it is mandatory to have a physical replication slot between the primary
and the standby aka 'primary_slot_name' should be configured on the
standby, and 'hot_standby_feedback' must be enabled on the standby. It is
also necessary to specify a valid 'dbname' in the 'primary_conninfo'.
If a logical slot is invalidated on the primary, then that slot on the
standby is also invalidated.
If a logical slot on the primary is valid but is invalidated on the
standby, then that slot is dropped but will be recreated on the standby in
the next pg_sync_replication_slots() call provided the slot still exists
on the primary server. It is okay to recreate such slots as long as these
are not consumable on standby (which is the case currently). This
situation may occur due to the following reasons:
- The 'max_slot_wal_keep_size' on the standby is insufficient to retain
WAL records from the restart_lsn of the slot.
- 'primary_slot_name' is temporarily reset to null and the physical slot
is removed.
The slot synchronization status on the standby can be monitored using the
'synced' column of pg_replication_slots view.
A functionality to automatically synchronize slots by a background worker
and allow logical walsenders to wait for the physical will be done in
subsequent commits.

For a long time, our outfuncs.c code has supposed that the string
contents of a BitString node could just be printed literally with
no concern for quoting/escaping. Now, that's okay if the string
literal contains only valid binary or hex digits ... but our lexer
doesn't check that, preferring to let bitin() be the sole authority
on what's valid. So we could have raw parse trees that contain
incorrect BitString literals, and that can result in failures when
WRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES debugging is enabled.
Fix by using outToken() to print the string field, and debackslash()
to read it. This results in a change in the emitted representation
only in cases that would have failed before, and don't represent valid
SQL in the first place. Between that and the fact that we don't store
raw parse trees in the catalogs, I judge this safe to apply without a
catversion bump.
