The C standard says that sizeof(bool) is implementation-defined, but we
know of no current systems where it is not 1. The last known systems
seem to have been Apple macOS/PowerPC 10.5 and Microsoft Visual C++ 4,
both long defunct.
PostgreSQL has always required sizeof(bool) == 1 for the definition of
bool that it used, but previously it would define its own type if the
system-provided bool had a different size. That was liable to cause
memory layout problems when interacting with system and third-party
libraries on (by now hypothetical) computers with wider _Bool, and now
C23 has introduced a new problem by making bool a built-in datatype
(like C++), so the fallback code doesn't even compile. We could
probably work around that, but then we'd be writing new untested code
for a computer that doesn't exist.
Instead, delete the unreachable and C23-uncompilable fallback code, and
let existing static assertions fail if the system-provided bool is too
wide. If we ever get a problem report from a real system, then it will
be time to figure out what to do about it in a way that also works on
modern compilers.
Note on C++: Previously we avoided including <stdbool.h> or trying to
define a new bool type in headers that might be included by C++ code.
These days we might as well just include <stdbool.h> unconditionally:
it should be visible to C++11 but do nothing, just as in C23. We
already include <stdint.h> without C++ guards in c.h, and that falls
under the same C99-compatibility section of the C++11 standard as
<stdbool.h>, so let's remove the guards here too.

Presently, we check for compiler support for the required
intrinsics both with and without the -msse4.2 compiler flag, and
then depending on the results of those checks, we pick which files
to compile with which flags. This is tedious and complicated, and
it results in unsustainable coding patterns such as separate files
for each portion of code that may need to be built with different
compiler flags.
This commit makes use of the newly-added support for
__attribute__((target(...))) in the SSE4.2 CRC-32C code. This
simplifies both the configure-time checks and the build scripts,
and it allows us to place the functions that use the intrinsics in
files that we otherwise do not want to build with special CPU
instructions (although this commit refrains from doing so). This
is also preparatory work for a proposed follow-up commit that will
further optimize the CRC-32C code with AVX-512 instructions.
While at it, this commit modifies meson's checks for SSE4.2 CRC
support to be the same as autoconf's. meson was choosing whether
to use a runtime check based purely on whether -msse4.2 is
required, while autoconf has long checked for the __SSE4_2__
preprocessor symbol to decide. meson's previous approach seems to
work just fine, but this change avoids needing to build multiple
test programs and to keep track of whether to actually use
pg_attribute_target().
Ideally we'd use __attribute__((target(...))) for ARMv8 CRC
support, too, but there's little point in doing so because until
clang 16, using the ARM intrinsics still requires special compiler
flags. Perhaps we can re-evaluate this decision after some time
has passed.

No backpatch, to avoid breaking existing translations.
Avoid leaking the prior value when updating the "connection"

Ditto for ECPGstruct_sizeof. (It seems like this one ought to

The actual_type[] entries are statement-local, though, so
no need to mm_strdup() strings stored in them.
Likewise, sqlda variables are statement-local, so we can
loc_alloc them.
Also clean up sloppiness around management of the argsinsert and

progname changes are strictly to prevent valgrind from complaining

With this, valgrind reports zero leakage in the ecpg preprocessor

ECPGfree_type() and related functions were quite incomplete
about removing subsidiary data structures. Possibly this is
because ecpg wasn't careful to make sure said data structures
always had their own storage. Previous patches in this series
cleaned up a lot of that, and I had to add a couple more
mm_strdup's here.
Also, ecpg.trailer tended to overwrite struct_member_list[struct_level]

leaking a lot of struct-member-related storage. Add
ECPGfree_struct_member() calls at appropriate points.

Commit 0785d1b8b adds support for libpq as a JSON client, but
allocations for string tokens can still be leaked during parsing
failures. This is tricky to fix for the object_field semantic callbacks:
the field name must remain valid until the end of the object, but if a
parsing error is encountered partway through, object_field_end() won't
be invoked and the client won't get a chance to free the field name.
This patch adds a flag to switch the ownership of parsed tokens to the
lexer. When this is enabled, the client must make a copy of any tokens
it wants to persist past the callback lifetime, but the lexer will
handle necessary cleanup on failure.
Backend uses of the JSON parser don't need to use this flag, since the
parser's allocations will occur in a short lived memory context.
A -o option has been added to test_json_parser_incremental to exercise
the new setJsonLexContextOwnsTokens() API, and the test_json_parser TAP
tests make use of it. (The test program now cleans up allocated memory,
so that tests can be usefully run under leak sanitizers.)

Commit ccd38024bc, which introduced the pg_signal_autovacuum_worker
role, added a call to pgstat_get_beentry_by_proc_number() for the
purpose of determining whether the process is an autovacuum worker.
This function calls pgstat_read_current_status(), which can be
fairly expensive and may return cached, out-of-date information.
Since we just need to look up the target backend's BackendType, and
we already know its ProcNumber, we can instead inspect the
BackendStatusArray directly, which is much less expensive and
possibly more up-to-date. There are some caveats with this
approach (which are documented in the code), but it's still

Historically we tolerated the absence of various C runtime library
features for the benefit of the MinGW tool chain, because it used
ancient msvcrt.dll for a long period of time. It now uses ucrt by
default (like Windows 10+, Visual Studio 2015+), and that's the only
configuration we're testing.
In practice, we effectively required ucrt already in PostgreSQL 17, when
commit 8d9a9f03 required _create_locale etc, first available in
msvcr120.dll (Visual Studio 2013, the last of the pre-ucrt series of
runtimes), and for MinGW users that practically meant ucrt because it
was difficult or impossible to use msvcr120.dll. That may even not have
been the first such case, but old MinGW configurations had already
dropped off our testing radar so we weren't paying much attention.
This commit formalizes the requirement. It also removes a couple of
obsolete comments that discussed msvcrt.dll limitations, and some tests
of !defined(_MSC_VER) to imply msvcrt.dll. There are many more
anachronisms, but it'll take some time to figure out how to remove them
all. APIs affected relate to locales, UTF-8, threads, large files and
more.
Thanks to Peter Eisentraut for the documentation change. It's not
really necessary to talk about ucrt explicitly in such a short section,
since it's the default for MinGW-w64 and MSYS2. It's enough to prune
references and broken links to much older tools.

This allows for example using LIKE with case-insensitive collations.
There was previously no internal implementation of this, so it was met
with a not-supported error. This adds the internal implementation and
removes the error. The implementation follows the specification of
the SQL standard for this.
Unlike with deterministic collations, the LIKE matching cannot go
character by character but has to go substring by substring. For
example, if we are matching against LIKE 'foo%bar', we can't start by
looking for an 'f', then an 'o', but instead with have to find
something that matches 'foo'. This is because the collation could
consider substrings of different lengths to be equal. This is all
internal to MatchText() in like_match.c.
The changes in GenericMatchText() in like.c just pass through the
locale information to MatchText(), which was previously not needed.
This matches exactly Generic_Text_IC_like() below.
ILIKE is not affected. (It's unclear whether ILIKE makes sense under
nondeterministic collations.)
This also updates match_pattern_prefix() in like_support.c to support
optimizing the case of an exact pattern with nondeterministic
collations. This was already alluded to in the previous code.

When using a pipeline, a transaction starts from the first command and
is committed with a Sync message or when the pipeline ends.
Functions like IsInTransactionBlock() or PreventInTransactionBlock()
were already able to understand a pipeline as being in a transaction
block, but it was not the case of CheckTransactionBlock(). This
function is called for example to generate a WARNING for SET LOCAL,
complaining that it is used outside of a transaction block.
The current state of the code caused multiple problems, like:
- SET LOCAL executed at any stage of a pipeline issued a WARNING, even
if the command was at least second in line where the pipeline is in a
transaction state.
- LOCK TABLE failed when invoked at any step of a pipeline, even if it
should be able to work within a transaction block.
The pipeline protocol assumes that the first command of a pipeline is
not part of a transaction block, and that any follow-up commands is
considered as within a transaction block.
This commit changes the backend so as an implicit transaction block is
started each time the first Execute message of a pipeline has finished
processing, with this implicit transaction block ended once a sync is
processed. The checks based on XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING in the routines
checking if we are in a transaction block are not necessary: it is
enough to rely on the existing ones.
Some tests are added to pgbench, that can be backpatched down to v17
when \syncpipeline is involved and down to v14 where \startpipeline and
\endpipeline are available. This is unfortunately limited regarding the
error patterns that can be checked, but it provides coverage for various
pipeline combinations to check if these succeed or fail. These tests
are able to capture the case of SET LOCAL's WARNING. The author has
proposed a different feature to improve the coverage by adding similar
meta-commands to psql where error messages could be checked, something
more useful for the cases where commands cannot be used in transaction
blocks, like REINDEX CONCURRENTLY or VACUUM. This is considered as
future work for v18~.

The ordering of DISTINCT items is semantically insignificant, so we
can reorder them as needed. In fact, in the parser, we absorb the
sorting semantics of the sortClause as much as possible into the
distinctClause, ensuring that one clause is a prefix of the other.
This can help avoid a possible need to re-sort.
In this commit, we attempt to adjust the DISTINCT keys to match the
input path's pathkeys. This can likewise help avoid re-sorting, or
allow us to use incremental-sort to save efforts.
For DISTINCT ON expressions, the parser already ensures that they
match the initial ORDER BY expressions. When reordering the DISTINCT
keys, we must ensure that the resulting pathkey list matches the
initial distinctClause pathkeys.
This introduces a new GUC, enable_distinct_reordering, which allows
the optimization to be disabled if needed.

On ARM platforms where the baseline CPU target lacks CRC instructions,
we need to supply a -march flag to persuade the compiler to compile

"-march=armv8-a+crc" has not worked for some time, because recent gcc
will interpret that as selecting software floating point, and then
will spit up if the platform requires hard-float ABI, as most do
nowadays. The end result was to silently fall back to software CRC,
which isn't very desirable since in practice almost all currently
produced ARM chips do have hardware CRC.
We can fix this by using "-march=armv8-a+crc+simd" to enable the
correct ABI choice. (This has no impact on the code actually
generated, since neither of the files we compile with this flag
does any floating-point stuff, let alone SIMD.) Keep the test for
"-march=armv8-a+crc" since that's required for soft-float ABI,

Previously we checked "for <stdbool.h> that conforms to C99" using
autoconf's AC_HEADER_STDBOOL macro. We've required C99 since PostgreSQL
12, so the test was redundant, and under C23 it was broken: autoconf
2.69's implementation doesn't understand C23's new empty header (the
macros it's looking for went away, replaced by language keywords).
Later autoconf versions fixed that, but let's just remove the
anachronistic test.
HAVE_STDBOOL_H and HAVE__BOOL will no longer be defined, but they
weren't directly tested in core or likely extensions (except in 11, see
below). PG_USE_STDBOOL (or USE_STDBOOL in 11 and 12) is still defined
when sizeof(bool) is 1, which should be true on all modern systems.
Otherwise we define our own bool type and values of size 1, which would
fail to compile under C23 as revealed by the broken test. (We'll
probably clean that dead code up in master, but here we want a minimal
back-patchable change.)
This came to our attention when GCC 15 recently started using using C23
by default and failed to compile the replacement code, as reported by
Sam James and build farm animal alligator.
Back-patch to all supported releases, and then two older versions that
also know about <stdbool.h>, per the recently-out-of-support policy[1].
12 requires C99 so it's much like the supported releases, but 11 only
assumes C89 so it now uses AC_CHECK_HEADERS instead of the overly picky
AC_HEADER_STDBOOL. (I could find no discussion of which historical

Per PEP 3114, iterator.next() has been renamed to iterator.__next__(),
and one example in the documentation still used next(). This caused the
example provided to fail the function creation since Python 2 is not
supported anymore since 19252e8ec9.

Backpatch-through: 15
Commit 7b88529f43 fixed a regression
spanning these features, but it didn't test them. It did test code
paths sufficient for their present implementations, so no back-patch.

When optimizer generates bitmap paths, it considers breaking OR-clause
arguments one-by-one. But now, a group of similar OR-clauses can be
transformed into SAOP during index matching. So, bitmap paths should
keep up.
This commit teaches bitmap paths generation machinery to group similar
OR-clauses into dedicated RestrictInfos. Those RestrictInfos are considered
both to match index as a whole (as SAOP), or to match as a set of individual
OR-clause argument one-by-one (the old way).
Therefore, bitmap path generation will takes advantage of OR-clauses to SAOP's
transformation. The old way of handling them is also considered. So, there
shouldn't be planning regression.

This commit makes match_clause_to_indexcol() match
"(indexkey op C1) OR (indexkey op C2) ... (indexkey op CN)" expression
to the index while transforming it into "indexkey op ANY(ARRAY[C1, C2, ...])"
(ScalarArrayOpExpr node).
This transformation allows handling long OR-clauses with single IndexScan
avoiding diving them into a slower BitmapOr.
We currently restrict Ci to be either Const or Param to apply this
transformation only when it's clearly beneficial. However, in the future,
we might switch to a liberal understanding of constants, as it is in other
cases.
