ParseNamespaceItem had a wired-in assumption that p_rte->eref
describes the table and column aliases exposed by the nsitem. This
relaxes this by creating a separate p_names field in an nsitem. This
is mainly preparation for a patch for JOIN USING aliases, but it saves
one indirection in common code paths, so it's possibly a win on its
own.

We always inserted a larger-than-fillfactor tuple into a newly-extended
page, even when existing pages were empty or contained nothing but an
unused line pointer. This was unnecessary relation extension. Start
tolerating page usage up to 1/8 the maximum space that could be taken up
by line pointers. This is somewhat arbitrary, but it should allow more
cases to reuse pages. This has no effect on tables with fillfactor=100
(the default).

this new option offers no guarantee that dependent objects have been

Whilst poking at nodeModifyTable.c, I chanced to notice that while
its calls to ExecBR*Triggers and ExecIR*Triggers are protected by
tests to see if there are any relevant triggers to fire, its calls
to ExecAR*Triggers are not; the latter functions do the equivalent
tests themselves. This seems possibly reasonable given the more
complex conditions involved, but what's less reasonable is that
the ExecAR* functions aren't careful to do no work when there is
no work to be done. ExecARInsertTriggers gets this right, but the
other two will both force creation of a slot that the query may
have no use for. ExecARUpdateTriggers additionally performed a
usually-useless ExecClearTuple() on that slot. This is probably
all pretty microscopic in real workloads, but a cycle shaved is a
cycle earned.
Transform the PQtrace output format from its ancient (and mostly
useless) byte-level output format to a logical-message-level output,

Here we add a new output parameter to estimate_num_groups() to allow it to
inform the caller of additional, possibly useful information about the
estimation.
The new output parameter is a struct that currently contains just a single
field with a set of flags. This was done rather than having the flags as
an output parameter to allow future fields to be added without having to
change the signature of the function at a later date when we want to pass
back further information that might not be suitable to store in the flags
field.
It seems reasonable that one day in the future that the planner would want
to know more about the estimation. For example, how many individual sets
of statistics was the estimation generated from? The planner may want to
take that into account if we ever want to consider risks as well as costs
when generating plans.
For now, there's only 1 flag we set in the flags field. This is to
indicate if the estimation fell back on using the hard-coded constants in
any part of the estimation. Callers may like to change their behavior if
this is set, and this gives them the ability to do so. Callers may pass
the flag pointer as NULL if they have no interest in obtaining any
additional information about the estimate.
We're not adding any actual usages of these flags here. Some follow-up
commits will make use of this feature. Additionally, we're also not
making any changes to add support for clauselist_selectivity() and
clauselist_selectivity_ext(). However, if this is required in the future
then the same struct being added here should be fine to use as a new
output argument for those functions too.

An upcoming patch that uses simplehash.h already has performed the hash

We were never doing clearerr() on the output stream, which results in a

This message was added by commit b03436994b (in the pg13 era); before
that, the error indicator would never be examined. So backpatch only
that far back, even though the actual bug (to wit: the fact that the
error indicator is never cleared) is older.
The design of the data structures which allow storage of the per-worker
memory during parallel seq scans were not ideal. The work done in
56788d215 required an additional data structure to allow workers to
remember the range of pages that had been allocated to them for
processing during a parallel seqscan. That commit added a void pointer
field to TableScanDescData to allow heapam to store the per-worker
allocation information. However putting the field there made very little
sense given that we have AM specific structs for that, e.g.
HeapScanDescData.
Here we remove the void pointer field from TableScanDescData and add a
dedicated field for this purpose to HeapScanDescData.
Previously we also allocated memory for this parallel per-worker data for
all scans, regardless if it was a parallel scan or not. This was just a
wasted allocation for non-parallel scans, so here we make the allocation
conditional on the scan being parallel.
Also, add previously missing pfree() to free the per-worker data in
heap_endscan().

Allow defining extended statistics on expressions, not just just on
simple column references. With this commit, expressions are supported
by all existing extended statistics kinds, improving the same types of
estimates. A simple example may look like this:
CREATE TABLE t (a int);
CREATE STATISTICS s ON mod(a,10), mod(a,20) FROM t;
ANALYZE t;
The collected statistics are useful e.g. to estimate queries with those
expressions in WHERE or GROUP BY clauses:
SELECT * FROM t WHERE mod(a,10) = 0 AND mod(a,20) = 0;
SELECT 1 FROM t GROUP BY mod(a,10), mod(a,20);
This introduces new internal statistics kind 'e' (expressions) which is
built automatically when the statistics object definition includes any
expressions. This represents single-expression statistics, as if there
was an expression index (but without the index maintenance overhead).
The statistics is stored in pg_statistics_ext_data as an array of
composite types, which is possible thanks to 79f6a942bd.
CREATE STATISTICS allows building statistics on a single expression, in
which case in which case it's not possible to specify statistics kinds.
A new system view pg_stats_ext_exprs can be used to display expression
statistics, similarly to pg_stats and pg_stats_ext views.
ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN ... TYPE now treats indexes the same way it
treats indexes, i.e. it drops and recreates the statistics. This means
all statistics are reset, and we no longer try to preserve at least the
functional dependencies. This should not be a major issue in practice,
as the functional dependencies actually rely on per-column statistics,
which were always reset anyway.

Adds BRIN opclasses similar to the existing minmax, except that instead
of summarizing the page range into a single [min,max] range, the summary
consists of multiple ranges and/or points, allowing gaps. This allows
more efficient handling of data with poor correlation to physical
location within the table and/or outlier values, for which the regular
minmax opclassed tend to work poorly.
It's possible to specify the number of values kept for each page range,

CREATE INDEX ON t
USING brin (a int4_minmax_multi_ops(values_per_range=16));
When building the summary, the values are combined into intervals with
the goal to minimize the "covering" (sum of interval lengths), using a

Adds a BRIN opclass using a Bloom filter to summarize the range. Indexes
using the new opclasses allow only equality queries (similar to hash
indexes), but that works fine for data like UUID, MAC addresses etc. for
which range queries are not very common. This also means the indexes
work for data that is not well correlated to physical location within
the table, or perhaps even entirely random (which is a common issue with
existing BRIN minmax opclasses).
It's possible to specify opclass parameters with the usual Bloom filter
parameters, i.e. the desired false-positive rate and the expected number
of distinct values per page range.
CREATE TABLE t (a int);
CREATE INDEX ON t
USING brin (a int4_bloom_ops(false_positive_rate = 0.05,
n_distinct_per_range = 100));
The opclasses do not operate on the indexed values directly, but compute
a 32-bit hash first, and the Bloom filter is built on the hash value.
Collisions should not be a huge issue though, as the number of distinct
values in a page ranges is usually fairly small.

Commit a1c649d889 changed the signature of the BRIN consistent function
by adding a new required parameter. Treating the parameter as optional,
which would make the change backwards incompatibile, was rejected with
the justification that there are few out-of-core extensions, so it's not
worth adding making the code more complex, and it's better to deal with
that in the extension.
But after further thought, that would be rather problematic, because
pg_upgrade simply dumps catalog contents and the same version of an
extension needs to work on both PostgreSQL versions. Supporting both
variants of the consistent function (with 3 or 4 arguments) makes that
possible.
The signature is not the only thing that changed, as commit 72ccf55cb9
moved handling of IS [NOT] NULL keys from the support procedures. But
this change is backward compatible - handling the keys in exension is
unnecessary, but harmless. The consistent function will do a bit of
unnecessary work, but it should be very cheap.
This also undoes most of the changes to the existing opclasses (minmax
and inclusion), making them use the old signature again. This should
make backpatching simpler.

Allow a partition be detached from its partitioned table without
blocking concurrent queries, by running in two transactions and only
requiring ShareUpdateExclusive in the partitioned table.
Because it runs in two transactions, it cannot be used in a transaction
block. This is the main reason to use dedicated syntax: so that users
can choose to use the original mode if they need it. But also, it
doesn't work when a default partition exists (because an exclusive lock
would still need to be obtained on it, in order to change its partition
constraint.)
In case the second transaction is cancelled or a crash occurs, there's
ALTER TABLE .. DETACH PARTITION .. FINALIZE, which executes the final
steps.
The main trick to make this work is the addition of column
pg_inherits.inhdetachpending, initially false; can only be set true in
the first part of this command. Once that is committed, concurrent
transactions that use a PartitionDirectory will include or ignore
partitions so marked: in optimizer they are ignored if the row is marked
committed for the snapshot; in executor they are always included. As a
result, and because of the way PartitionDirectory caches partition
descriptors, queries that were planned before the detach will see the
rows in the detached partition and queries that are planned after the
detach, won't.
A CHECK constraint is created that duplicates the partition constraint.
This is probably not strictly necessary, and some users will prefer to
remove it afterwards, but if the partition is re-attached to a
partitioned table, the constraint needn't be rechecked.
