The comment for the Pointer type says 'XXX Pointer arithmetic is done
with this, so it can't be void * under "true" ANSI compilers.'. This
fixes that. Change from Pointer to use char * explicitly where
pointer arithmetic is needed. This makes the meaning of the code
clearer locally and removes a dependency on the actual definition of
the Pointer type. (The definition of the Pointer type is not changed
in this commit.)

Presently, this view reports NULL for the size of DSAs and dshash
tables because 1) the current backend might not be attached to them
and 2) the registry doesn't save the pointers to the dsa_area or
dshash_table in local memory. Also, the view doesn't show
partially-initialized entries to avoid ambiguity, since those
entries would report a NULL size as well.
This commit introduces a function that looks up the size of a DSA
given its handle (transiently attaching to the control segment if
needed) and teaches pg_dsm_registry_allocations to use it to show
the size of successfully-initialized DSA and dshash entries.
Furthermore, the view now reports partially-initialized entries

When planning queries with ON CONFLICT on partitioned tables, the
indexes to consider as arbiters for each partition are determined based
on those found in the parent table. However, it's possible for an index
on a partition to be reindexed, and in that case, the auxiliary indexes
created on the partition must be considered as arbiters as well; failing
to do that may result in spurious "duplicate key" errors given
sufficient bad luck.
We fix that in this commit by matching every index that doesn't have a
parent to each initially-determined arbiter index. Every unparented
matching index is considered an additional arbiter index.

The regex mechanism scans through the first "max_chr" character values
to cache character property ranges (isalpha, etc.). For single-byte
encodings, there's no sense in scanning beyond UCHAR_MAX; but for
UTF-8 it makes sense to cache higher code point values (though not all
of them; only up to MAX_SIMPLE_CHR).
Prior to 5a38104b36, the logic about how many character values to scan
was based on the pg_regex_strategy, which was dependent on the
provider. Commit 5a38104b36 preserved that logic exactly, allowing
different providers to define the "max_chr".
Now, change it to depend only on the encoding and whether
ctype_is_c. For this specific calculation, distinguishing between
providers creates more complexity than it's worth.

conditions involving an nbtree row comparison key following commits
f09816a0 and bd3f59fd: we can do so in simple cases involving IS NULL

compare whose first subkey's arg is NULL. Update obsolete comments that
claimed that we merely copied row compares into the output key array
"without any editorialization".
Also update another _bt_preprocess_keys header comment paragraph: add a
parenthetical remark that points out that preprocessing will generate a
skip array for the preceding example qual. That will ultimate lead to
preprocessing marking the example's lower-order y key required -- which
is exactly what the example supposes cannot happen. Keep the original
comment, though, since it accurately describes the mechanical rules that
determine which keys get marked required in the absence of skip arrays
(which can occasionally still matter). This fixes an oversight in

Formerly, when updating an auto-updatable view, or a relation with
rules, if the original query had any data-modifying CTEs, the rewriter
would rewrite those CTEs multiple times as RewriteQuery() recursed
into the product queries. In most cases that was harmless, because
RewriteQuery() is mostly idempotent. However, if the CTE involved
updating an always-generated column, it would trigger an error because
any subsequent rewrite would appear to be attempting to assign a
non-default value to the always-generated column.
This could perhaps be fixed by attempting to make RewriteQuery() fully
idempotent, but that looks quite tricky to achieve, and would probably
be quite fragile, given that more generated-column-type features might
be added in the future.
Instead, fix by arranging for RewriteQuery() to rewrite each CTE
exactly once (by tracking the number of CTEs already rewritten as it
recurses). This has the advantage of being simpler and more efficient,
but it does make RewriteQuery() dependent on the order in which
rewriteRuleAction() joins the CTE lists from the original query and
the rule action, so care must be taken if that is ever changed.

There was a pg_isblank() function that claimed to be a replacement for
the standard isblank() function, which was thought to be "not very
portable yet". We can now assume that it's portable (it's in C99).
But pg_isblank() actually diverged from the standard isblank() by also
accepting '\r', while the standard one only accepts space and tab.
This was added to support parsing pg_hba.conf under Windows. But the
hba parsing code now works completely differently and already handles
line endings before we get to pg_isblank(). The other user of
pg_isblank() is for ident protocol message parsing, which also handles
'\r' separately. So this behavior is now obsolete and confusing.
To improve clarity, I separated those concerns. The ident parsing now
gets its own function that hardcodes the whitespace characters
mentioned by the relevant RFC. pg_isblank() is now static in hba.c
and is a wrapper around the standard isblank(), with some extra logic
to ensure robust treatment of non-ASCII characters.

- pg_buffercache_mark_dirt_relation() for all the shared buffers in a

* pg_buffercache_mark_dirty_all() for all the shared buffers in pool.
The "_all" and "_relation" flavors are designed to address the
inefficiency of repeatedly calling pg_buffercache_mark_dirty() for each
individual buffer, which can be time-consuming when dealing with with
large shared buffers pool.
These functions are intended as developer tools and are available only

The solution used in 0ca3b1697 to determine the Parallel TID Range
Scan's start location was to modify the signature of
table_block_parallelscan_startblock_init() to allow the startblock
to be passed in as a parameter. This allows the scan limits to be
adjusted before that function is called so that the limits are picked up
when the parallel scan starts. The commit made it so the call to
table_block_parallelscan_startblock_init uses the HeapScanDesc's
rs_startblock to pass the startblock to the parallel scan. That all
works ok for Parallel TID Range scans as the HeapScanDesc rs_startblock
gets set by heap_setscanlimits(), but for Parallel Seq Scans, initscan()
does not initialize rs_startblock, and that results in passing an
uninitialized value to table_block_parallelscan_startblock_init() as
noted by the buildfarm member skink, running Valgrind.
To fix this issue, make it so initscan() sets the rs_startblock for
parallel scans unless we're doing a rescan. This makes it so
table_block_parallelscan_startblock_init() will be called with the
startblock set to InvalidBlockNumber, and that'll allow the syncscan
code to find the correct start location (when enabled). For Parallel
TID Range Scans, this InvalidBlockNumber value will be overwritten in
the call to heap_setscanlimits().
initscan() is a bit light on documentation on what's meant to get
initialized where for parallel scans. From what I can tell, it looks like
it just didn't matter prior to 0ca3b1697 that rs_startblock was left
uninitialized for parallel scans. To address the light documentation,
I've also added some comments to mention that the syncscan location for
parallel scans is figured out in table_block_parallelscan_startblock_init.
I've also taken the liberty to adjust the if/else if/else code in
initscan() to make it clearer which parts apply to parallel scans and
which parts are for the serial scans.

Normally, if a WHERE clause is implied by the predicate of a partial
index, we drop that clause from the set of quals used with the index,
since it's redundant to test it if we're scanning that index.
However, if it's a hash index (or any !amoptionalkey index), this
could result in dropping all available quals for the index's first
key, preventing us from generating an indexscan.
It's fair to question the practical usefulness of this case. Since
hash only supports equality quals, the situation could only arise
if the index's predicate is "WHERE indexkey = constant", implying
that the index contains only one hash value, which would make hash
a really poor choice of index type. However, perhaps there are
other !amoptionalkey index AMs out there with which such cases are
more plausible.
To fix, just don't filter the candidate indexquals this way if
the index is !amoptionalkey. That's a bit hokey because it may
result in testing quals we didn't need to test, but to do it
more accurately we'd have to redundantly identify which candidate
quals are actually usable with the index, something we don't know
at this early stage of planning. Doesn't seem worth the effort.

both cases.

In v14, bb437f995 added support for scanning for ranges of TIDs using a
dedicated executor node for the purpose. Here, we allow these scans to
be parallelized. The range of blocks to scan is divvied up similarly to
how a Parallel Seq Scans does that, where 'chunks' of blocks are
allocated to each worker and the size of those chunks is slowly reduced
down to 1 block per worker by the time we're nearing the end of the
scan. Doing that means workers finish at roughly the same time.
Allowing TID Range Scans to be parallelized removes the dilemma from the
planner as to whether a Parallel Seq Scan will cost less than a
non-parallel TID Range Scan due to the CPU concurrency of the Seq Scan
(disk costs are not divided by the number of workers). It was possible
the planner could choose the Parallel Seq Scan which would result in
reading additional blocks during execution than the TID Scan would have.
Allowing Parallel TID Range Scans removes the trade-off the planner
makes when choosing between reduced CPU costs due to parallelism vs
additional I/O from the Parallel Seq Scan due to it scanning blocks from
outside of the required TID range. There is also, of course, the
traditional parallelism performance benefits to be gained as well, which
likely doesn't need to be explained here.

might mean deforming more of the tuple, which for large fact tables may
be many columns in.
It may be possible to add prosupport functions for other aggregates. We
could consider if ORDER BY could be dropped for some calls, e.g. the
ORDER BY is quite useless in MAX(c ORDER BY c).
There is a little bit of passing fallout from adjusting
expr_is_nonnullable() to handle Const which results in a plan change in
the aggregates.out regression test. Previously, nothing was able to
determine that "One-Time Filter: (100 IS NOT NULL)" was always true,
therefore useless to include in the plan.

If DSM registry entry initialization fails, backends could try to
use an uninitialized DSM segment, DSA, or dshash table (since the
entry is still added to the registry). To fix, restructure the
code so that the registry retries initialization as needed. This
commit also modifies pg_get_dsm_registry_allocations() to leave out
partially-initialized entries, as they shouldn't have any allocated
memory.
DSM registry entry initialization shouldn't fail often in practice,
but retrying was deemed better than leaving entries in a
permanently failed state (as was done by commit 1165a933aa, which
has since been reverted).

Previously, the caller needed to check ctype_is_c first for some
routines and not others. Now, the APIs consistently work, and the
caller can just check ctype_is_c for optimization purposes.

pgperltidy requires a particular version of perltidy, but the version
wasn't checked like how pgindent checks the underlying indent binary.
Fix by checking the version of perltidy and error out if an incorrect
version is used.

This reverts commit 1165a933aa (and the corresponding commits on
the back-branches). In a follow-up commit, we'll teach the
registry to retry entry initialization instead of leaving it in a
permanently failed state.

Refactor the setup and planning phases of pruning and freezing into
helpers. This streamlines heap_page_prune_and_freeze() and makes it more
clear when the examination of tuples ends and page modifications begin.
No code change beyond what was required to extract the code into helper
functions.
