This should tame the beast, as there are no other places where off_t is
used in the new error messages.
Reported again by longfin, which complained about walsender.c while I
spotted the other two ones while double-checking.
Some error messages related to file handling are using the code path
context to define their state. For example, 2PC-related errors are
referring to "two-phase status files", or "relation mapping file" is
used for catalog-to-filenode mapping, however those prove to be
difficult to translate, and are not more helpful than just referring to
the path of the file being worked on. So simplify all those error
messages by just referring to files with their path used. In some
cases, like the manipulation of WAL segments, the context is actually
helpful so those are kept.
Calls to the system function read() have also been rather inconsistent
with their error handling sometimes not reporting the number of bytes
read, and some other code paths trying to use an errno which has not
been set. The in-core functions are using a more consistent pattern
with this patch, which checks for both errno if set or if an
inconsistent read is happening.
So as to care about pluralization when reading an unexpected number of
byte(s), "could not read: read %d of %zu" is used as error message, with
%d field being the output result of read() and %zu the expected size.
This simplifies the work of translators with less variations of the same
message.

Update links that resulted in redirects. Most are changes from http to
https, but there are also some other minor edits. (There are still some
redirects where the target URL looks less elegant than the one we
currently have. I have left those as is.)
In final_cost_hashjoin(), commit 9c7f5229a allowed inner_unique cases
to follow a code path previously used only for SEMI/ANTI joins; but it
neglected to fix an if-test within that path that assumed SEMI and ANTI
were the only possible cases. This resulted in a wrong value for
hashjointuples, and an ensuing bad cost estimate, for inner_unique normal
joins. Fortunately, for inner_unique normal joins we can assume the number
of joined tuples is the same as for a SEMI join; so there's no need for
more code, we just have to invert the test to check for ANTI not SEMI.
It turns out that in two contrib tests in which commit 9c7f5229a
changed the plan expected for a query, the change was actually wrong
and induced by this estimation error, not by any real improvement.
Hence this patch also reverts those changes.

Previously convert_tuples_by_name_map naively performed a search of each
outdesc column starting at the first column in indesc and searched each
indesc column until a match was found. When partitioned tables had many
columns this could result in slow generation of the tuple conversion maps.
For INSERT and UPDATE statements that touched few rows, this could mean a
very large overhead indeed.
We can do a bit better with this loop. It's quite likely that the columns
in partitioned tables and their partitions are in the same order, so it
makes sense to start searching for each column outer column at the inner
column position 1 after where the previous match was found (per idea from
Alexander Kuzmenkov). This makes the best case search O(N) instead of
O(N^2). The worst case is still O(N^2), but it seems unlikely that would
happen.
Likewise, in the planner, make_inh_translation_list's search for the
matching column could often end up falling back on an O(N^2) type search.
This commit also improves that by first checking the column that follows
the previous match, instead of the column with the same attnum. If we
fail to match here we fallback on the syscache's hashtable lookup.

When reading an existing FSM or VM page that was found to be corrupt by the
buffer manager, the code applied PageInit() to reinitialize the page, but
did so without any locking. There is thus a hazard that two backends might
concurrently do PageInit, which in itself would still be OK, but the slower
one might then zero over subsequent data changes applied by the faster one.
Even that is unlikely to be fatal; but it's not desirable, so add locking
to prevent it.
This does not add any locking overhead in the normal code path where the
page is OK. It's not immediately obvious that that's safe, but I believe
it is, for reasons explained in the added comments.

WAL senders sending logically-decoded data fail to properly report in

Generally, if the comparison operators for a datatype or pair of datatypes
are leakproof, the corresponding btree comparison support function can be
considered so as well. But we had not originally worried about marking
support functions as leakproof, reasoning that they'd not likely be used in
queries so the marking wouldn't matter. It turns out there's at least one
place where it does matter: calc_arraycontsel() finds the target datatype's
default btree comparison function and tries to use that to estimate
selectivity, but it will be blocked in some cases if the function isn't
leakproof. This leads to unnecessarily poor selectivity estimates and bad
plans, as seen in bug #15251.
Hence, run around and apply proleakproof markings where the corresponding
btree comparison operators are leakproof. (I did eyeball each function
to verify that it wasn't doing anything surprising, too.)
This isn't a full solution to bug #15251, and it's not back-patchable
because of the need for a catversion bump. A more useful response probably
is to consider whether we can check permissions on the parent table instead
of the child. However, this change will help in some cases where that
won't, and it's easy enough to do in HEAD, so let's do so.

test about gating_clauses, because we reset "flags" to zero earlier
if there are gating clauses to apply.)
The only known case in which a failure can occur is with a ProjectSet
path directly atop a table scan path, although it seems likely that there
are other cases or will be such in future. This means that the failure
is currently only visible in the v10 branch: 9.6 didn't have ProjectSet,
while in v11 and HEAD, apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths for some weird
reason is using create_projection_path not apply_projection_to_path,

nodeWindowAgg.c failed to cope with the possibility that no ordering
columns are defined in the window frame for GROUPS mode or RANGE OFFSET
mode, leading to assertion failures or odd errors, as reported by Masahiko
Sawada and Lukas Eder. In RANGE OFFSET mode, an ordering column is really
required, so add an Assert about that. In GROUPS mode, the code would
work, except that the node initialization code wasn't in sync with the
execution code about when to set up tuplestore read pointers and spare
slots. Fix the latter for consistency's sake (even though I think the
changes described below make the out-of-sync cases unreachable for now).
Per SQL spec, a single ordering column is required for RANGE OFFSET mode,
and at least one ordering column is required for GROUPS mode. The parser
enforced the former but not the latter; add a check for that.
We were able to reach the no-ordering-column cases even with fully spec
compliant queries, though, because the planner would drop partitioning
and ordering columns from the generated plan if they were redundant with
earlier columns according to the redundant-pathkey logic, for instance
"PARTITION BY x ORDER BY y" in the presence of a "WHERE x=y" qual.
While in principle that's an optimization that could save some pointless
comparisons at runtime, it seems unlikely to be meaningful in the real
world. I think this behavior was not so much an intentional optimization
as a side-effect of an ancient decision to construct the plan node's
ordering-column info by reverse-engineering the PathKeys of the input
path. If we give up redundant-column removal then it takes very little
code to generate the plan node info directly from the WindowClause,
ensuring that we have the expected number of ordering columns in all
cases. (If anyone does complain about this, the planner could perhaps
be taught to remove redundant columns only when it's safe to do so,
ie *not* in RANGE OFFSET mode. But I doubt anyone ever will.)
With these changes, the WindowAggPath.winpathkeys field is not used for
anything anymore, so remove it.
The test cases added here are not actually very interesting given the
removal of the redundant-column-removal logic, but they would represent
important corner cases if anyone ever tries to put that back.

Such replication slots are physical slots freshly created without WAL
being reserved, which is the default behavior, which have not been used
yet as WAL consumption resources to retain WAL. This prevents advancing
a slot to a position older than any WAL available, which could falsify

The EEOP_INNER_SYSVAR and EEOP_OUTER_SYSVAR executor opcodes are not
exercised by normal queries, because setrefs.c will resolve the references
to system columns in the scan nodes already. Join nodes refer to them by
their position in the child node's target list, like user columns.
The only place where those opcodes are used, is in evaluating a trigger's
WHEN condition that references system columns. Trigger evaluation abuses
the INNER/OUTER Vars to refer to the OLD and NEW tuples. The code to handle
