Robert Haas	8fd5aa76c3	amcheck: Fix verify_heapam for tuples where xmin or xmax is 0. In such cases, get_xid_status() doesn't set its output parameter (the third argument), so we shouldn't fall through to code which will test the value of that parameter. There are five existing calls to get_xid_status(), three of which seem to already handle this case properly. This commit tries to fix the other two. If we're checking xmin and find that it is invalid (i.e. 0) just report that as corruption, similar to what's already done in the three cases that seem correct. If we're checking xmax and find that's invalid, that's fine: it just means that the tuple hasn't been updated or deleted. Thanks to Andres Freund and valgrind for finding this problem, and also to Andres for having a look at the patch. This bug seems to go all the way back to where verify_heapam was first introduced, but wasn't detected until recently, possibly because of the new test cases added for update chain verification. Back-patch to v14, where this code showed up. Discussion: http://postgr.es/m/CA+TgmoZAYzQZqyUparXy_ks3OEOfLD9-bEXt8N-2tS1qghX9gQ@mail.gmail.com	3 years ago

Thomas Munro	1b9e42e82a	Fix race in parallel hash join batch cleanup, take II. With unlucky timing and parallel_leader_participation=off (not the default), PHJ could attempt to access per-batch shared state just as it was being freed. There was code intended to prevent that by checking for a cleared pointer, but it was racy. Fix, by introducing an extra barrier phase. The new phase PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING means that it's safe to access the per-batch state to find a batch to help with, and PHJ_BUILD_DONE means that it is too late. The last to detach will free the array of per-batch state as before, but now it will also atomically advance the phase, so that late attachers can avoid the hazard. This mirrors the way per-batch hash tables are freed (see phases PHJ_BATCH_PROBING and PHJ_BATCH_DONE). An earlier attempt to fix this (commit `3b8981b6`, later reverted) missed one special case. When the inner side is empty (the "empty inner optimization), the build barrier would only make it to PHJ_BUILD_HASHING_INNER phase before workers attempted to detach from the hashtable. In that case, fast-forward the build barrier to PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING before proceeding, so that our later assertions hold and we can still negotiate who is cleaning up. Revealed by build farm failures, where BarrierAttach() failed a sanity check assertion, because the memory had been clobbered by dsa_free(). In non-assert builds, the result could be a segmentation fault. Back-patch to all supported releases.

Tomas Vondra	6a78a42fea	Fix netmask handling in inet_minmax_multi_ops When calculating distance in brin_minmax_multi_distance_inet(), the netmask was applied incorrectly. This results in (seemingly) incorrect ordering of values, triggering an assert. For builds without asserts this is mostly harmless - we may merge other ranges, possibly resulting in slightly less efficient index.

David Rowley	f654f343c6	Fix memory leak in Memoize cache key evaluation When probing the Memoize cache to check if the current cache key values exist in the cache, we perform an evaluation of the expressions making up the cache key before probing the hash table for those values. This operation could leak memory as it is possible that the cache key is an expression which requires allocation of memory, as was the case in bug 17844. Here we fix this by correctly switching to the per tuple context before evaluating the cache expressions so that the memory is freed next time the per tuple context is reset.

Tom Lane	5fc1ac151d	Fix pg_dump for hash partitioning on enum columns. Hash partitioning on an enum is problematic because the hash codes are derived from the OIDs assigned to the enum values, which will almost certainly be different after a dump-and-reload than they were before. This means that some rows probably end up in different partitions than before, causing restore to fail because of partition constraint violations. (pg_upgrade dodges this problem by using hacks to force the enum values to keep the same OIDs, but that's not possible nor desirable for pg_dump.) Users can work around that by specifying --load-via-partition-root, but since that's a dump-time not restore-time decision, one might find out the need for it far too late. Instead, teach pg_dump to apply that option automatically when dealing with a partitioned table that has hash-on-enum partitioning. Also deal with a pre-existing issue for --load-via-partition-root mode: in a parallel restore, we try to TRUNCATE target tables just before loading them, in order to enable some backend optimizations. This is bad when using --load-via-partition-root because (a) we're likely to suffer deadlocks from restore jobs trying to restore rows into other partitions than they came from, and (b) if we miss getting a deadlock we might still lose data due to a TRUNCATE removing rows from some already-completed restore job. The fix for this is conceptually simple: just don't TRUNCATE if we're dealing with a --load-via-partition-root case. The tricky bit is for pg_restore to identify those cases. In dumps using COPY commands we can inspect each COPY command to see if it targets the nominal target table or some ancestor. However, in dumps using INSERT commands it's pretty impractical to examine the INSERTs in advance. To provide a solution for that going forward, modify pg_dump to mark TABLE DATA items that are using --load-via-partition-root with a comment. (This change also responds to a complaint from Robert Haas that the dump output for --load-via-partition-root is pretty confusing.) pg_restore checks for the special comment as well as checking the COPY command if present. This will fail to identify the combination of --load-via-partition-root and --inserts in pre-existing dump files, but that should be a pretty rare case in the field. If it does happen you will probably get a deadlock failure that you can work around by not using parallel restore, which is the same as before this bug fix. Having done this, there seems no remaining reason for the alarmism in the pg_dump man page about combining --load-via-partition-root with parallel restore, so remove that warning. Patch by me; thanks to Julien Rouhaud for review. Back-patch to v11 where hash partitioning was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1376149.1675268279@sss.pgh.pa.us	3 years ago
Andres Freund	a9b716c33d	tests: Prevent syslog activity by slapd, take 2 Unfortunately it turns out that the logfile-only option added in `b9f8d1cbad` is only available in openldap starting in 2.6. Luckily the option to control the log level (loglevel/-s) have been around for much longer. As it turns out loglevel/-s only control what goes into syslog, not what ends up in the file specified with 'logfile' and stderr. While we currently are specifying 'logfile', nothing ends up in it, as the option only controls debug messages, and we didn't set a debug level. The debug level can only be configured on the commandline and also prevents forking. That'd require larger changes, so this commit doesn't tackle that issue. Specify the syslog level when starting slapd using -s, as that allows to prevent all syslog messages if one uses '0' instead of 'none', while loglevel doesn't prevent the first message.

Michael Paquier	bbf18fe199	Improve WIN32 port of fstat() to detect more file types The current implementation of _pgfstat64() is ineffective in detecting a terminal handle or an anonymous named pipe. This commit improves our port of fstat() to detect more efficiently such cases by relying on GetFileType(), and returning more correct data when the type found is either a FILE_TYPE_PIPE (_S_IFIFO) or a FILE_TYPE_CHAR (_S_IFCHR). This is part of a more global fix to address failures when feeding the output generated by pg_dump to pg_restore through a pipe, for example, but not all of it. We are also going to need to do something about fseek() and ftello() which are not reliable on WIN32 for the same cases where fstat() was incorrect. Fixing fstat() is independent of the rest, though, which is why both fixes are handled separately, and this is the first part of it.

Thomas Munro	2bef57ee8b	Fix fractional vacuum_cost_delay. Commit `4753ef37` changed vacuum_delay_point() to use the WaitLatch() API, to fix the problem that vacuum could keep running for a very long time after the postmaster died. Unfortunately, that broke commit caf626b2's support for fractional vacuum_cost_delay, which shipped in PostgreSQL 12. WaitLatch() works in whole milliseconds. For now, revert the change from commit `4753ef37`, but add an explicit check for postmaster death. That's an extra system call on systems other than Linux and FreeBSD, but that overhead doesn't matter much considering that we willingly went to sleep and woke up again. (In later work, we might add higher resolution timeouts to the latch API so that we could do this with our standard programming pattern, but that wouldn't be back-patched.)

Thomas Munro	9b6e0b9c37	Fix waitpid() emulation on Windows. Our waitpid() emulation didn't prevent a PID from being recycled by the OS before the call to waitpid(). The postmaster could finish up tracking more than one child process with the same PID, and confuse them. Fix, by moving the guts of pgwin32_deadchild_callback() into waitpid(), so that resources are released synchronously. The process and PID continue to exist until we close the process handle, which only happens once we're ready to adjust our book-keeping of running children. This seems to explain a couple of failures on CI. It had never been reported before, despite the code being as old as the Windows port. Perhaps Windows started recycling PIDs more rapidly, or perhaps timing changes due to commit `7389aad6` made it more likely to break.

Tom Lane	0ee9d685dd	Fix JSON error reporting for many cases of erroneous string values. The majority of error exit cases in json_lex_string() failed to set lex->token_terminator, causing problems for the error context reporting code: it would see token_terminator less than token_start and do something more or less nuts. In v14 and up the end result could be as bad as a crash in report_json_context(). Older versions accidentally avoided that fate; but all versions produce error context lines that are far less useful than intended, because they'd stop at the end of the prior token instead of continuing to where the actually-bad input is. To fix, invent some macros that make it less notationally painful to do the right thing. Also add documentation about what the function is actually required to do; and in >= v14, add an assertion in report_json_context about token_terminator being sufficiently far advanced.

After TLS fails, the connection is marked as dead and follow-up calls of PQconnectPoll() would return immediately, but GSS encryption was not doing that, so the connection would still have been allowed to enter the GSS handling code.

Andres Freund	b3a83055c2	amcheck: Fix FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() for xids before epoch 0 64bit xids can't represent xids before epoch 0 (see also `be504a3e97`).

Thomas Munro	d811d74be3	Fix race in SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. Commit `bdaabb9b` started skipping doomed transactions when building the list of possible conflicts for SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. That makes sense, because doomed transactions won't commit, but a couple of subtle things broke: 1. If all uncommitted r/w transactions are doomed, a READ ONLY transaction would arbitrarily not benefit from the safe snapshot optimization. It would not be taken immediately, and yet no other transaction would set SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE later. 2. In the same circumstances but with DEFERRABLE, GetSafeSnapshot() would correctly exit its wait loop without sleeping and then take the optimization in non-assert builds, but assert builds would fail a sanity check that SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE had been set by another transaction. This is similar to the case for PredXact->WritableSxactCount == 0. We should opt out immediately if our possibleUnsafeConflicts list is empty after filtering.

Andres Freund	324281fd5b	Fix corruption due to vacuum_defer_cleanup_age underflowing 64bit xids When vacuum_defer_cleanup_age is bigger than the current xid, including the epoch, the subtraction of vacuum_defer_cleanup_age would lead to a wrapped around xid. While that normally is not a problem, the subsequent conversion to a 64bit xid results in a 64bit-xid very far into the future. As that xid is used as a horizon to detect whether rows versions are old enough to be removed, that allows removal of rows that are still visible (i.e. corruption). If vacuum_defer_cleanup_age was never changed from the default, there is no chance of this bug occurring. This bug was introduced in `dc7420c2c9`. A lesser version of it exists in 12-13, introduced by `fb5344c969`, affecting only GiST. The 12-13 version of the issue can, in rare cases, lead to pages in a gist index getting recycled too early, potentially causing index entries to be found multiple times. The fix is fairly simple - don't allow vacuum_defer_cleanup_age to retreat further than FirstNormalTransactionId. Patches to make similar bugs easier to find, by adding asserts to the 64bit xid infrastructure, have been proposed, but are not suitable for backpatching. Currently there are no tests for vacuum_defer_cleanup_age. A patch introducing infrastructure to make writing a test easier has been posted to the list.

Tom Lane	9f1e51b596	Fix more bugs caused by adding columns to the end of a view. If a view is defined atop another view, and then CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW is used to add columns to the lower view, then when the upper view's referencing RTE is expanded by ApplyRetrieveRule we will have a subquery RTE with fewer eref->colnames than output columns. This confuses various code that assumes those lists are always in sync, as they are in plain parser output. We have seen such problems before (cf commit `d5b760ecb`), and now I think the time has come to do what was speculated about in that commit: let's make ApplyRetrieveRule synthesize some column names to preserve the invariant that holds in parser output. Otherwise we'll be chasing this class of bugs indefinitely. Moreover, it appears from testing that this actually gives us better results in the test case `d5b760ecb` added, and likely in other corner cases that we lack coverage for.

Tom Lane	1e05ea51d3	Fix some more cases of missed GENERATED-column updates. If UPDATE is forced to retry after an EvalPlanQual check, it neglected to repeat GENERATED-column computations, even though those might well have changed since we're dealing with a different tuple than before. Fixing this is mostly a matter of looping back a bit further when we retry. In v15 and HEAD that's most easily done by altering the API of ExecUpdateAct so that it includes computing GENERATED expressions. Also, if an UPDATE in a partitioned table turns into a cross-partition INSERT operation, we failed to recompute GENERATED columns. That's a bug since `8bf6ec3ba` allowed partitions to have different generation expressions; although it seems to have no ill effects before that. Fixing this is messier because we can now have situations where the same query needs both the UPDATE-aligned set of GENERATED columns and the INSERT-aligned set, and it's unclear which set will be generated first (else we could hack things by forcing the INSERT-aligned set to be generated, which is indeed how `fe9e658f4` made it work for MERGE). The best fix seems to be to build and store separate sets of expressions for the INSERT and UPDATE cases. That would create ABI issues in the back branches, but so far it seems we can leave this alone in the back branches. Per bug #17823 from Hisahiro Kauchi. The first part of this affects all branches back to v12 where GENERATED columns were added. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17823-b64909cf7d63de84@postgresql.org	3 years ago
Thomas Munro	e9051ecd58	Fix assert failures in parallel SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. 1. Make sure that we don't decrement SxactGlobalXminCount twice when the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE optimization is reached in a parallel query. This could trigger a sanity check failure in assert builds. Non-assert builds recompute the count in SetNewSxactGlobalXmin(), so the problem was hidden, explaining the lack of field reports. Add a new isolation test to exercise that case. 2. Remove an assertion that the DOOMED flag can't be set on a partially released SERIALIZABLEXACT. Instead, ignore the flag (our transaction was already determined to be read-only safe, and DOOMED is in fact set during partial release, and there was already an assertion that it wasn't set sooner). Improve an existing isolation test so that it reaches that case (previously it wasn't quite testing what it was supposed to be testing; see discussion). Back-patch to 12. Bug #17116.

Michael Paquier	5ad63eee13	pageinspect: Fix crash with gist_page_items() Attempting to use this function with a raw page not coming from a GiST index would cause a crash, as it was missing the same sanity checks as gist_page_items_bytea(). This slightly refactors the code so as all the basic validation checks for GiST pages are done in a single routine, in the same fashion as the pageinspect functions for hash and BRIN. This fixes an issue similar to `076f4d9`. A test is added to stress for this case. While on it, I have added a similar test for brin_page_items() with a combination make of a valid GiST index and a raw btree page. This one was already protected, but it was not tested.

Tom Lane	1a9356f657	Avoid fetching one past the end of translate()'s "to" parameter. This is usually harmless, but if you were very unlucky it could provoke a segfault due to the "to" string being right up against the end of memory. Found via valgrind testing (so we might've found it earlier, except that our regression tests lacked any exercise of translate()'s deletion feature). Fix by switching the order of the test-for-end-of-string and advance-pointer steps. While here, compute "to_ptr + tolen" just once. (Smarter compilers might figure that out for themselves, but let's just make sure.) Report and fix by Daniil Anisimov, in bug #17816.

Tom Lane	ba019b4dac	Harden postgres_fdw tests against unexpected cache flushes. postgres_fdw will close its remote session if an sinval cache reset occurs, since it's possible that that means some FDW parameters changed. We had two tests that were trying to ensure that the session remains alive by setting debug_discard_caches = 0; but that's not sufficient. Even though the tests seem stable enough in the buildfarm, they flap a lot under CI. In the first test, which is checking the ability to recover from a lost connection, we can stabilize the results by just not caring whether pg_terminate_backend() finds a victim backend. If a reset did happen, there won't be a session to terminate anymore, but the test can proceed anyway. (Arguably, we are then not testing the unintentional-disconnect case, but as long as that scenario is exercised in most runs I think it's fine; testing the reset-driven case is of value too.) In the second test, which is trying to verify the application_name displayed in pg_stat_activity by a remote session, we had a race condition in that the remote session might go away before we can fetch its pg_stat_activity entry. We can close that race and make the test more certainly test what it intends to by arranging things so that the remote session itself fetches its pg_stat_activity entry (based on PID rather than a somewhat-circular assumption about the application name). Both tests now demonstrably pass under debug_discard_caches = 1, so we can remove that hack. Back-patch into relevant back branches.

Tom Lane	9eaba06027	Fix MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK with partitioned target tables, yet again. We already tried to fix this in commits `3f7323cbb` et al (and follow-on fixes), but now it emerges that there are still unfixed cases; moreover, these cases affect all branches not only pre-v14. I thought we had eliminated all cases of making multiple clones of an UPDATE's target list when we nuked inheritance_planner. But it turns out we still do that in some partitioned-UPDATE cases, notably including INSERT ... ON CONFLICT UPDATE, because ExecInitPartitionInfo thinks it's okay to clone and modify the parent's targetlist. This fix is based on a suggestion from Andres Freund: let's stop abusing the ParamExecData.execPlan mechanism, which was only ever meant to handle initplans, and instead solve the execution timing problem by having the expression compiler move MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK steps to the front of their expression step lists. This is feasible because (a) all branches still in support compile the entire targetlist of an UPDATE into a single ExprState, and (b) we know that all MULTIEXPR_SUBLINKs do need to be evaluated --- none could be buried inside a CASE, for example. There is a minor semantics change concerning the order of execution of the MULTIEXPR's subquery versus other parts of the parent targetlist, but that seems like something we can get away with. By doing that, we no longer need to worry about whether different clones of a MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK share output Params; their usage of that data structure won't overlap. Per bug #17800 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches. In v13 and earlier, we can revert `3f7323cbb` and follow-on fixes; however, I chose to keep the SubPlan.subLinkId field added in `ccbb54c72`. We don't need that anymore in the core code, but it's cheap enough to fill, and removing a plan node field in a minor release seems like it'd be asking for trouble.

Dean Rasheed	27ff93d18c	Fix mishandling of OLD/NEW references in subqueries in rule actions. If a rule action contains a subquery that refers to columns from OLD or NEW, then those are really lateral references, and the planner will complain if it sees such things in a subquery that isn't marked as lateral. However, at rule-definition time, the user isn't required to mark the subquery with LATERAL, and so it can fail when the rule is used. Fix this by marking such subqueries as lateral in the rewriter, at the point where they're used. Dean Rasheed and Tom Lane, per report from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Dean Rasheed	f0423bea7f	Fix multi-row DEFAULT handling for INSERT ... SELECT rules. Given an updatable view with a DO ALSO INSERT ... SELECT rule, a multi-row INSERT ... VALUES query on the view fails if the VALUES list contains any DEFAULTs that are not replaced by view defaults. This manifests as an "unrecognized node type" error, or an Assert failure, in an assert-enabled build. The reason is that when RewriteQuery() attempts to replace the remaining DEFAULT items with NULLs in any product queries, using rewriteValuesRTEToNulls(), it assumes that the VALUES RTE is located at the same rangetable index in each product query. However, if the product query is an INSERT ... SELECT, then the VALUES RTE is actually in the SELECT part of that query (at the same index), rather than the top-level product query itself. Fix, by descending to the SELECT in such cases. Note that we can't simply use getInsertSelectQuery() for this, since that expects to be given a raw rule action with OLD and NEW placeholder entries, so we duplicate its logic instead. While at it, beef up the checks in getInsertSelectQuery() by checking that the jointree->fromlist node is indeed a RangeTblRef, and that the RTE it points to has rtekind == RTE_SUBQUERY.

But we may not have a consistent snapshot yet at that point. We don't actually need the snapshot in this case (during replay we'll have the snapshot from the transaction), so in practice this is harmless. But in assert-enabled build this crashes.

Tom Lane	dc44180f6e	Fix erroneous Valgrind markings in AllocSetRealloc. If asked to decrease the size of a large (>8K) palloc chunk, AllocSetRealloc could improperly change the Valgrind state of memory beyond the new end of the chunk: it would mark data UNDEFINED as far as the old end of the chunk after having done the realloc(3) call, thus tromping on the state of memory that no longer belongs to it. One would normally expect that memory to now be marked NOACCESS, so that this mislabeling might prevent detection of later errors. If realloc() had chosen to move the chunk someplace else (unlikely, but well within its rights) we could also mismark perfectly-valid DEFINED data as UNDEFINED, causing false-positive valgrind reports later. Also, any malloc bookkeeping data placed within this area might now be wrongly marked, causing additional problems. Fix by replacing relevant uses of "oldsize" with "Min(size, oldsize)". It's sufficient to mark as far as "size" when that's smaller, because whatever remains in the new chunk size will be marked NOACCESS below, and we expect realloc() to have taken care of marking the memory beyond the new official end of the chunk. While we're here, also rename the function's "oldsize" variable to "oldchksize" to more clearly explain what it actually holds, namely the distance to the end of the chunk (that is, requested size plus trailing padding). This is more consistent with the use of "size" and "chksize" to hold the new requested size and chunk size. Add a new variable "oldsize" in the one stanza where we're actually talking about the old requested size. Oversight in commit `c477f3e44`. Back-patch to all supported branches, as that was, just in case anybody wants to do valgrind testing on back branches.

Alvaro Herrera	663e50e832	pgbench: Prepare commands in pipelines in advance Failing to do so results in an error when a pgbench script tries to start a serializable transaction inside a pipeline, because by the time BEGIN ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE is executed, we're already in a transaction that has acquired a snapshot, so the server rightfully complains. We can work around that by preparing all commands in the pipeline before actually starting the pipeline. This changes the existing code in two aspects: first, we now prepare each command individually at the point where that command is about to be executed; previously, we would prepare all commands in a script as soon as the first command of that script would be executed. It's hard to see that this would make much of a difference (particularly since it only affects the first time to execute each script in a client), but I didn't actually try to measure it. Secondly, we no longer use PQsendPrepare() in pipeline mode, but only PQprepare. There's no specific reason for this change other than no longer needing to do differently in pipeline mode. (Previously we had no choice, because in pipeline mode PQprepare could not be used.) Backpatch to 14, where pgbench got support for pipeline mode.

Tom Lane	14345f3c6a	Print the correct aliases for DML target tables in ruleutils. ruleutils.c blindly printed the user-given alias (or nothing if there hadn't been one) for the target table of INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE queries. That works a large percentage of the time, but not always: for queries appearing in WITH, it's possible that we chose a different alias to avoid conflict with outer-scope names. Since the chosen alias would be used in any Var references to the target table, this'd lead to an inconsistent printout with consequences such as dump/restore failures. The correct logic for printing (or not) a relation alias was embedded in get_from_clause_item. Factor it out to a separate function so that we don't need a jointree node to use it. (Only a limited part of that function can be reached from these new call sites, but this seems like the cleanest non-duplicative factorization.) In passing, I got rid of a redundant "\d+ rules_src" step in rules.sql. Initial report from Jonathan Katz; thanks to Vignesh C for analysis.

Michael Paquier	864f80fead	Fix handling of SCRAM-SHA-256's channel binding with RSA-PSS certificates OpenSSL 1.1.1 and newer versions have added support for RSA-PSS certificates, which requires the use of a specific routine in OpenSSL to determine which hash function to use when compiling it when using channel binding in SCRAM-SHA-256. X509_get_signature_nid(), that is the original routine the channel binding code has relied on, is not able to determine which hash algorithm to use for such certificates. However, X509_get_signature_info(), new to OpenSSL 1.1.1, is able to do it. This commit switches the channel binding logic to rely on X509_get_signature_info() over X509_get_signature_nid(), which would be the choice when building with 1.1.1 or newer. The error could have been triggered on the client or the server, hence libpq and the backend need to have their related code paths patched. Note that attempting to load an RSA-PSS certificate with OpenSSL 1.1.0 or older leads to a failure due to an unsupported algorithm. The discovery of relying on X509_get_signature_info() comes from Jacob, the tests have been written by Heikki (with few tweaks from me), while I have bundled the whole together while adding the bits needed for MSVC and meson. This issue exists since channel binding exists, so backpatch all the way down. Some tests are added in 15~, triggered if compiling with OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer, where the certificate and key files can easily be generated for RSA-PSS.

David Rowley	4aa43ba218	Disable WindowAgg inverse transitions when subplans are present When an aggregate function is used as a WindowFunc and a tuple transitions out of the window frame, we ordinarily try to make use of the aggregate function's inverse transition function to "unaggregate" the exiting tuple. This optimization is disabled for various cases, including when the aggregate contains a volatile function. In such a case we'd be unable to ensure that the transition value was calculated to the same value during transitions and inverse transitions. Unfortunately, we did this check by calling contain_volatile_functions() which does not recursively search SubPlans for volatile functions. If the aggregate function's arguments or its FILTER clause contained a subplan with volatile functions then we'd fail to notice this. Here we fix this by just disabling the optimization when the WindowFunc contains any subplans. Volatile functions are not the only reason that a subplan may have nonrepeatable results.

Tom Lane	7f8778fcf3	Stop recommending auto-download of DTD files, and indeed disable it. It appears no longer possible to build the SGML docs without a local installation of the DocBook DTD, because sourceforge.net now only permits HTTPS access, and no common version of xsltproc supports that. Hence, remove the bits of our documentation suggesting that that's possible or useful. In fact, we might as well add the --nonet option to the build recipes automatically, for a bit of extra security. Also fix our documentation-tool-installation recipes for macOS to ensure that xmllint and xsltproc are pulled in from MacPorts or Homebrew. The previous recipes assumed you could use the Apple-supplied versions of these tools; which still works, except that you'd need to set an environment variable to ensure that they would find DTD files provided by those package managers. Simpler and easier to just recommend pulling in the additional packages. In HEAD, also document how to build docs using Meson, and adjust "ninja docs" to just build the HTML docs, for consistency with the default behavior of doc/src/sgml/Makefile.
