The regression test checks whether the output of pg_stat_replication is
expected or not after changing synchronous_standby_names and reloading
the configuration file. Regarding this test logic, previously there was
a timing issue which made the test result unstable. That is,
pg_stat_replication could return unexpected result during small window
after the configuration file was reloaded before new setting value
took effect, and which made the test fail.
This commit changes the test logic so that it uses a loop with a timeout
to give some room for the test to pass. Now the test fails only when
pg_stat_replication keeps returning unexpected result for 30 seconds.

The code had a query-lifespan memory leak when encountering GIN entries
that have posting lists (rather than posting trees, ie, there are a
relatively small number of heap tuples containing this index key value).
With a suitable data distribution this could add up to a lot of leakage.
Problem seems to have been introduced by commit 36a35c550, so back-patch
to 9.4.

\crosstabview interpreted its arguments in an unusual way, including
doing case-insensitive matching of unquoted column names, which is
surely not the right thing. Rip that out in favor of doing something
equivalent to the dequoting/case-folding rules used by other psql
commands. To keep it simple, change the syntax so that the optional
sort column is specified as a separate argument, instead of the
also-quite-unusual syntax that attached it to the colH argument with
a colon.
Also, rework the error messages to be closer to project style.
My previous attempt at doing so, in 80abbeba23, was not sufficient. While that
fixed the problem for bufmgr.c and lwlock.c , s_lock.c still has non-constant
expressions in the struct initializer, because the file/line/function
information comes from the caller of s_lock().
Give up on using a macro, and use a static inline instead.

When re-reading an update involving both an old tuple and a new tuple from
disk, reorderbuffer.c was careless about whether the new tuple is suitably
aligned for direct access --- in general, it isn't. We'd missed seeing
this in the buildfarm because the contrib/test_decoding tests exercise this
code path only a few times, and by chance all of those cases have old
tuples with length a multiple of 4, which is usually enough to make the
access to the new tuple's t_len safe. For some still-not-entirely-clear
reason, however, Debian's sparc build gets a bus error, as reported by
Christoph Berg; perhaps it's assuming 8-byte alignment of the pointer?
The lack of previous field reports is probably because you need all of
these conditions to trigger a crash: an alignment-picky platform (not
Intel), a transaction large enough to spill to disk, an update within
that xact that changes a primary-key field and has an odd-length old tuple,
and of course logical decoding tracing the transaction.
Avoid the alignment assumption by using memcpy instead of fetching t_len
directly, and add a test case that exposes the crash on picky platforms.
Back-patch to 9.4 where the bug was introduced.

Commit 314cbfc5da redefined the signature of this hook as
typedef int (*walrcv_receive_type) (char **buffer, int *wait_fd);
But in fact the type of the "wait_fd" variable ought to be pgsocket,
which is what WaitLatchOrSocket expects, and which is necessary if
we want to be able to assign PGINVALID_SOCKET to it on Windows.
So fix that.
It was declared as "pid_t", which would be fine except that none of
the places that printed it in error messages took any thought for the
possibility that it's not equivalent to "int". This leads to warnings
on some buildfarm members, and could possibly lead to actually wrong
error messages on those platforms. There doesn't seem to be any very
good reason not to just make it "int"; it's only ever assigned from
MyProcPid, which is int. If we want to cope with PIDs that are wider
than int, this is not the place to start.
Also, fix the comment, which seems to perhaps be a leftover from a time
when the field was only a bool?
Per buildfarm. Back-patch to 9.5 which has same issue.
Section 7.6 was a tad confusing because it specified what LIMIT NULL
does, but neglected to do the same for OFFSET NULL, making this look
like perhaps a special case or a wrong restatement of the bit about
LIMIT ALL. Wordsmith a bit while at it. Per bug #14084.
For a long time, opclasscmds.c explained that "we do not create a
dependency link to the AM [for an opclass or opfamily], because we don't
currently support DROP ACCESS METHOD". Commit 473b932870 invented
DROP ACCESS METHOD, but it batted only 1 for 2 on adding the dependency
links, and 0 for 2 on updating the comments about the topic.
In passing, undo the same commit's entirely inappropriate decision to
blow away an existing index as a side-effect of create_am.sql.
Commit cfe96ae corrected the name of pg_logical_emit_message()
in its index entry. But this typo fix caused duplicated index
entry because there was another index entry for the function.
Spotted by Tom Lane.
As part of reserving the pg_* namespace for default roles and in line
with SET ROLE and other previous efforts, disallow settings the role
to a default/reserved role using SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION.
These checks and restrictions on what is allowed regarding default /
reserved roles are under debate, but it seems prudent to ensure that
the existing checks at least cover the intended cases while the
debate rages on. On me to clean it up if the consensus decision is
to remove these checks.
Logical messages, added in 3fe3511d05, during decoding failed to filter
messages emitted in other databases and messages emitted "under" a
replication origin the output plugin isn't interested in.
Add tests to verify that both types of filtering actually work. While
touching message.sql remove hunk obsoleted by d25379e.
Bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC because xl_logical_message changed and because
3fe3511d05 had omitted doing so. 3fe3511d05 additionally didn't bump
catversion, but 7a542700d has done so since.

The current definition of init_spin_delay (introduced recently in
48354581a) wasn't C89 compliant. It's not legal to refer to refer to
non-constant expressions, and the ptr argument was one. This, as
reported by Tom, lead to a failure on buildfarm animal pademelon.
The pointer, especially on system systems with ASLR, isn't super helpful
anyway, though. So instead of making init_spin_delay into an inline
function, make s_lock_stuck() report the function name in addition to
file:line and change init_spin_delay() accordingly. While not a direct
replacement, the function name is likely more useful anyway (line
numbers are often hard to interpret in third party reports).
This also fixes what file/line number is reported for waits via
s_lock().
As PG_FUNCNAME_MACRO is now used outside of elog.h, move it to c.h.

Discussion: 4369.1460435533@sss.pgh.pa.us
As reported by Michael Feld, pg_upgrade'ing an installation having
extensions with operator families that contain just a single operator class
failed to reproduce the extension membership of those operator families.
This caused no immediate ill effects, but would create problems when later
trying to do a plain dump and restore, because the seemingly-not-part-of-
the-extension operator families would appear separately in the pg_dump
output, and then would conflict with the families created by loading the
extension. This has been broken ever since extensions were introduced,
and many of the standard contrib extensions are affected, so it's a bit
astonishing nobody complained before.
The cause of the problem is a perhaps-ill-considered decision to omit
such operator families from pg_dump's output on the grounds that the
CREATE OPERATOR CLASS commands could recreate them, and having explicit
CREATE OPERATOR FAMILY commands would impede loading the dump script into
pre-8.3 servers. Whatever the merits of that decision when 8.3 was being
written, it looks like a poor tradeoff now. We can fix the pg_upgrade
problem simply by removing that code, so that the operator families are
dumped explicitly (and then will be properly made to be part of their
extensions).
Although this fixes the behavior of future pg_upgrade runs, it does nothing
to clean up existing installations that may have improperly-linked operator
families. Given the small number of complaints to date, maybe we don't
need to worry about providing an automated solution for that; anyone who
needs to clean it up can do so with manual "ALTER EXTENSION ADD OPERATOR
FAMILY" commands, or even just ignore the duplicate-opfamily errors they
get during a pg_restore. In any case we need this fix.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

The recent patch to make Pin/UnpinBuffer lockfree in the hot
path (48354581a), accidentally used pg_atomic_fetch_or_u32() in
MarkLocalBufferDirty(). Other code operating on local buffers was
careful to only use pg_atomic_read/write_u32 which just read/write from
memory; to avoid unnecessary overhead.
On its own that'd just make MarkLocalBufferDirty() slightly less
efficient, but in addition InitLocalBuffers() doesn't call
pg_atomic_init_u32() - thus the spinlock fallback for the atomic
operations isn't initialized. That in turn caused, as reported by Tom,
buildfarm animal gaur to fail. As those errors are actually useful
against this type of error, continue to omit - intentionally this time -
initialization of the atomic variable.
In addition, add an explicit note about only using pg_atomic_read/write
on local buffers's state to BufferDesc's description.

It's silly to define these counts as narrower than they might someday
need to be. Also, I believe that the BLCKSZ * nflush calculation in
mdwriteback was capable of overflowing an int.
Commit 428b1d6b29 introduced the use of
msync() for flushing dirty data from the kernel's file buffers. Several
portability issues were overlooked, though:
* Not all implementations of mmap() think that nbytes == 0 means "map
the whole file". To fix, use lseek() to find out the true length.
Fix callers of pg_flush_data to be aware that nbytes == 0 may result
in trashing the file's seek position.
* Not all implementations of mmap() will accept partial-page mmap
requests. To fix, round down the length request to whatever sysconf()
says the page size is. (I think this is OK from a portability standpoint,
because sysconf() is required by SUS v2, and we aren't trying to compile
this part on Windows anyway. Buildfarm should let us know if not.)
* On 32-bit machines, the file size might exceed the available free
address space, or even exceed what will fit in size_t. Check for
the latter explicitly to avoid passing a false request size to mmap().
If mmap fails, silently fall through to the next implementation method,
rather than bleating to the postmaster log and giving up.
* mmap'ing directories fails on some platforms, and even if it works,
msync'ing the directory is quite unlikely to help, as for that matter are
the other flush implementations. In pre_sync_fname(), just skip flush
attempts on directories.
In passing, copy-edit the comments a bit.
Stas Kelvich and myself
Fix misleading syntax summary (there cannot be a space between colH and
scolH). Provide a link from the existing crosstab() function's
documentation to \crosstabview. Copy-edit the command's description.

I've seen one too many "could not bind IPv4 socket: No error" log entries
from the Windows buildfarm members. Per previous discussion, this is
likely caused by the fact that we're doing nothing to translate
WSAGetLastError() to errno. Put in a wrapper layer to do that.
If this works as expected, it should get back-patched, but let's see what
happens in the buildfarm first.
Discussion: <4065.1452450340@sss.pgh.pa.us>
The original patch kind of ignored the fact that we were doing something
different from a costing point of view, but nobody noticed. This patch
fixes that oversight.

That unused function was introduced as a sample because synchronous
replication or replication monitoring tools might need it in the future.
Recently commit 989be08 added the function SyncRepGetOldestSyncRecPtr
which provides almost the same functionality for multiple synchronous
standbys feature. So it's time to remove that unused sample function.
This commit does that.
Per discussion, this gives potential users of the hook more flexibility,
because they can build custom Paths that implement only one stage of
upper processing atop core-provided Paths for earlier stages.
Coverity complained about this code, not without reason because it was
rather messy. Adjust it to not scribble on the passed string; that adds
one malloc/free cycle per column name, which is going to be insignificant
in context. We can actually const-ify both the string argument and the
PGresult.
Daniel Verité, with some further cleanup by me
On a big NUMA machine with 1000 connections in saturation load
there was a performance regression due to spinlock contention, for
acquiring values which were never used. Just fill with dummy
values if we're not going to use them.
This patch has not been benchmarked yet on a big NUMA machine, but
it seems like a good idea on general principle, and it seemed to
prevent an apparent 2.2% regression on a single-socket i7 box
running 200 connections at saturation load.
Rename this function to GenericXLogRegisterBuffer() to make it clearer
what it does, and leave room for other sorts of "register" actions in
future. Also, replace its "bool isNew" argument with an integer flags
argument, so as to allow adding more flags in future without an API
break.
Alexander Korotkov, adjusted slightly by me
The previous coding could allow the contents of the "hole" between pd_lower
and pd_upper to diverge during replay from what it had been when the update
was originally applied. This would pose a problem if checksums were in
use, and in any case would complicate forensic comparisons between master
and slave servers. So force the "hole" to contain zeroes, both at initial
application of a generically-logged action, and at replay.
Alexander Korotkov, adjusted slightly by me
Added to ensure that bloom index pages can be distinguished from other pages
by pg_filedump. Because there wasn't any public/production versions before,
it doesn't pay attention to any compatibility issues.
Per notice from Tom Lane
In commit b0e40d1893, I should have just
removed the /D switch defining WIN64. The reason the code worked before
is that all Windows64 compilers automatically predefine _WIN64. Perhaps
at one time we had code that depended on WIN64 being defined, but it's
long gone, and we should not encourage any reappearance. Per discussion
with Christian Ullrich.
When IF NOT EXISTS was added to CREATE TABLE AS, this logic didn't get
the memo, possibly resulting in an Assert failure. It looks like there
would have been no ill effects in a non-Assert build, though. Back-patch
to 9.5 where the IF NOT EXISTS option was added.
Stas Kelvich
Everyplace else thinks it's _WIN64, so make these places fall in line.
The pg_regress.c usage is not going to result in any change in behavior,
only suppressing (or not) a compiler warning about downcasting HANDLEs.
So there seems no need for back-patching there.
The libpq/win32.mak usage might represent an actual bug, if anyone were
using this script to build for Windows64, which perhaps nobody is.
Given the lack of field complaints, no back-patch here either.
pg_regress.c problem found by Christian Ullrich, the other by me.
It turns out that those PyErr_Clear() calls I removed from plpy_elog.c
in 7e3bb08038 et al were not quite as random as they appeared: they
mask a Python 2.3.x bug. (Specifically, it turns out that PyType_Ready()
can fail if the error indicator is set on entry, and PLy_traceback's fetch
of frame.f_code may be the first operation in a session that requires the
"frame" type to be readied. Ick.) Put back the clear call, but in a more
centralized place closer to what it's protecting, and this time with a
comment warning what it's really for.
Per buildfarm member prairiedog. Although prairiedog was only failing
on HEAD, it seems clearly possible for this to occur in older branches
as well, so back-patch to 9.2 the same as the previous patch.
I was initially concerned that the some of the hundreds of
references to BufferGetPage() where the literal
BGP_NO_SNAPSHOT_TEST were passed might not optimize as well as a
macro, leading to some hard-to-find performance regressions in
corner cases. Inspection of disassembled code has shown identical
code at all inspected locations, and the size difference doesn't
amount to even one byte per such call. So make it readable.

It was incorrectly declared as a volatile pointer to a non-volatile
structure. Eliminate the OldSnapshotControl struct definition; it
is really not needed. Pointed out by Tom Lane.
While at it, add OldSnapshotControlData to pgindent's list of
structures.
To avoid any possible overlap with existing roles on a system when
doing a 'make installcheck', use role names which start with
'regress_'.
Pointed out by Tom.
Commit 5c3c3cd0a3 plastered "volatile" on a bunch of variables
in PLy_output(), but removed the one that actually mattered, ie the
one on "oldcontext". This allows some versions of clang to generate
code in which "oldcontext" has been trashed when control reaches the
PG_CATCH block. Per buildfarm member tick.
The existing code would either Assert or generate an invalid
SyncRepConfig variable, neither of which is desirable. A regular
error should be thrown instead.
This commit silences compiler warning in non assertion-enabled builds.
Per report from Jeff Janes.
Suggested fix by Tom Lane.
It's not entirely clear to me whether PyString_AsString can return
null (looks like the answer might vary between Python 2 and 3).
But in any case, this code's attempt to cope with the possibility
was quite broken, because pstrdup() neither allows a null argument
nor ever returns a null.
Moreover, the code below this point assumes that "message" is a
palloc'd string, which would not be the case for a dgettext result.
Fix both problems by doing the pstrdup step separately.
Coverity complained about this resource leak (why now, I don't know,
since it's been like that a long time). Our general policy in pg_dump
is that PQExpBuffers are worth cleaning up, so do it here too. But
don't bother with a back-patch, because it seems unlikely that very
many databases contain enough FOREIGN SERVER objects to notice.
Coverity complained about an apparent missing "break" in a switch
added by bb140506df. The human-readable comments are pretty
clear that this is intentional, but add a standard /* FALL THRU */
comment to make it clear to tools too.
Coverity complained that the code added by 015e88942a lacked an
error check for SearchSysCache1 failures, which it should have. But
the code was pretty duff in other ways too, including failure to think
about whether it could really cope with arrays of different lengths.
