Some things in be-secure-openssl.c and fe-secure-openssl.c were not
actually specific to OpenSSL but could also be used by other
implementations. In order to avoid copy-and-pasting, move some of that
code to common files.
Move the documentation of the SSL API calls are supposed to do into the
headers files, instead of keeping them in the files for the OpenSSL
implementation. That way, they don't have to be duplicated or be
inconsistent when other implementations are added.
Split the "Authentication and Security" section into two separate
sections "Authentication" and "SSL". The latter part has gotten much
longer over time, and doesn't primarily have to do with authentication.
Also, the row_security parameter was inconsistently categorized, so
clean that up while we're here.
This patch rearranges the division of labor between pg_dump and pg_dumpall
so that pg_dump itself handles all properties attached to a single
database. Notably, a database's ACL (GRANT/REVOKE status) and local GUC
settings established by ALTER DATABASE SET and ALTER ROLE IN DATABASE SET
can be dumped and restored by pg_dump. This is a long-requested
improvement.
"pg_dumpall -g" will now produce only role- and tablespace-related output,
nothing about individual databases. The total output of a regular
pg_dumpall run remains the same.
pg_dump (or pg_restore) will restore database-level properties only when
creating the target database with --create. This applies not only to
ACLs and GUCs but to the other database properties it already handled,
that is database comments and security labels. This is more consistent
and useful, but does represent an incompatibility in the behavior seen
without --create.
(This change makes the proposed patch to have pg_dump use "COMMENT ON
DATABASE CURRENT_DATABASE" unnecessary, since there is no case where
the command is issued that we won't know the true name of the database.
We might still want that patch as a feature in its own right, but pg_dump
no longer needs it.)
pg_dumpall with --clean will now drop and recreate the "postgres" and
"template1" databases in the target cluster, allowing their locale and
encoding settings to be changed if necessary, and providing a cleaner
way to set nondefault tablespaces for them than we had before. This
means that such a script must now always be started in the "postgres"
database; the order of drops and reconnects will not work otherwise.
Without --clean, the script will not adjust any database-level properties
of those two databases (including their comments, ACLs, and security
labels, which it formerly would try to set).
Another minor incompatibility is that the CREATE DATABASE commands in a
pg_dumpall script will now always specify locale and encoding settings.
Formerly those would be omitted if they matched the cluster's default.
While that behavior had some usefulness in some migration scenarios,
it also posed a significant hazard of unwanted locale/encoding changes.
To migrate to another locale/encoding, it's now necessary to use pg_dump
without --create to restore into a database with the desired settings.
Commit 4bd371f6f's hack to emit "SET default_transaction_read_only = off"
is gone: we now dodge that problem by the expedient of not issuing ALTER
DATABASE SET commands until after reconnecting to the target database.
Therefore, such settings won't apply during the restore session.
In passing, improve some shaky grammar in the docs, and add a note pointing
out that pg_dumpall's output can't be expected to load without any errors.
(Someday we might want to fix that, but this is not that patch.)

Most of the code in pg_dump dumps an object's comment, security label,
and ACL auxiliary TOC entries, in that order, immediately after the
object's main TOC entry, and at least dumpComment's API spec says this
isn't optional. dumpDatabase was significantly violating that when
in binary-upgrade mode, by inserting totally unrelated stuff between.
Also, dumpForeignDataWrapper and dumpForeignServer were being randomly
inconsistent. Reorder code so everybody does it the same.
This may be future-proofing us against some code growing a requirement for
such auxiliary entries to be adjacent to their main entry. But for now
it's just neatnik-ism, so I see no need for back-patch.

Commit 8561e4840c neglected to handle
older Python versions that don't support the "with" statement. So write
the tests in a way that older versions can handle as well.
_tocEntryRequired() expects that it can identify ACL, SECURITY LABEL,
and COMMENT TOC entries that are for large objects by seeing whether
the tag for them starts with "LARGE OBJECT ". While that works fine
for actual large objects, which are indeed tagged that way, it's
subject to false positives unless every such entry's tag starts with an
appropriate type ID. And in fact it does not work for ACLs, because
up to now we customarily tagged those entries with just the bare name
of the object. This means that an ACL for an object named
"LARGE OBJECT something" would be misclassified as data not schema,
with undesirable results in a schema-only or data-only dump ---
although pg_upgrade seems unaffected, due to the special case for
binary-upgrade mode further down in _tocEntryRequired().
We can fix this by changing all the dumpACL calls to use the label
strings already in use for comments and security labels, which do
follow the convention of starting with an object type indicator.
Well, mostly they follow it. dumpDatabase() got it wrong, using
just the bare database name for those purposes, so that a database
named "LARGE OBJECT something" would similarly be subject to having
its comment or security label dropped or included when not wanted.
Bring that into line too. (Note that up to now, database ACLs have
not been processed by pg_dump, so that this issue doesn't affect them.)
_tocEntryRequired() itself is not free of fault: it was overly liberal
about matching object tags to "LARGE OBJECT " in binary-upgrade mode.
This looks like it is probably harmless because there would be no data
component to strip anyway in that mode, but at best it's trouble
waiting to happen, so tighten that up too.
The possible misclassification of SECURITY LABEL entries for databases is
in principle a security problem, but the opportunities for actual exploits
seem too narrow to be interesting. The other cases seem like just bugs,
since an object owner can change its ACL or comment for himself, he needn't
try to trick someone else into doing it by choosing a strange name.
This has been broken since per-large-object TOC entries were introduced
in 9.0, so back-patch to all supported branches.

In each of the supplied procedural languages (PL/pgSQL, PL/Perl,
PL/Python, PL/Tcl), add language-specific commit and rollback
functions/commands to control transactions in procedures in that
language. Add similar underlying functions to SPI. Some additional
cleanup so that transaction commit or abort doesn't blow away data
structures still used by the procedure call. Add execution context
tracking to CALL and DO statements so that transaction control commands
can only be issued in top-level procedure and block calls, not function
calls or other procedure or block calls.
- SPI
Add a new function SPI_connect_ext() that is like SPI_connect() but
allows passing option flags. The only option flag right now is
SPI_OPT_NONATOMIC. A nonatomic SPI connection can execute transaction
control commands, otherwise it's not allowed. This is meant to be
passed down from CALL and DO statements which themselves know in which
context they are called. A nonatomic SPI connection uses different
memory management. A normal SPI connection allocates its memory in
TopTransactionContext. For nonatomic connections we use PortalContext
instead. As the comment in SPI_connect_ext() (previously SPI_connect())
indicates, one could potentially use PortalContext in all cases, but it
seems safest to leave the existing uses alone, because this stuff is
complicated enough already.
SPI also gets new functions SPI_start_transaction(), SPI_commit(), and
SPI_rollback(), which can be used by PLs to implement their transaction
control logic.
- portalmem.c
Some adjustments were made in the code that cleans up portals at
transaction abort. The portal code could already handle a command
*committing* a transaction and continuing (e.g., VACUUM), but it was not
quite prepared for a command *aborting* a transaction and continuing.
In AtAbort_Portals(), remove the code that marks an active portal as
failed. As the comment there already predicted, this doesn't work if
the running command wants to keep running after transaction abort. And
it's actually not necessary, because pquery.c is careful to run all
portal code in a PG_TRY block and explicitly runs MarkPortalFailed() if
there is an exception. So the code in AtAbort_Portals() is never used
anyway.
In AtAbort_Portals() and AtCleanup_Portals(), we need to be careful not
to clean up active portals too much. This mirrors similar code in
PreCommit_Portals().
- PL/Perl
Gets new functions spi_commit() and spi_rollback()
- PL/pgSQL
Gets new commands COMMIT and ROLLBACK.
Update the PL/SQL porting example in the documentation to reflect that
transactions are now possible in procedures.

available, we can just use PyLong_FromLongLong() for 64 bits as well.
In Python 2.5 and later, PyLong_FromLong() and PyLong_FromLongLong() use
the same code, so there will be no difference for 64-bit platforms. In
Python 2.4, the code is different, but performance testing showed no

When an index column is an expression, it makes no sense to compare its
attribute numbers.
This seems to account for remaining buildfarm fallout from 8b08f7d482.
At least, it solves the issue in my local 32bit VM -- let's see what the
rest thinks.
AclObjectKind was basically just another enumeration for object types,
and we already have a preferred one for that. It's only used in
aclcheck_error. By using ObjectType instead, we can also give some more
precise error messages, for example "index" instead of "relation".

When CREATE INDEX is run on a partitioned table, create catalog entries
for an index on the partitioned table (which is just a placeholder since
the table proper has no data of its own), and recurse to create actual
indexes on the existing partitions; create them in future partitions
also.
As a convenience gadget, if the new index definition matches some
existing index in partitions, these are picked up and used instead of
creating new ones. Whichever way these indexes come about, they become
attached to the index on the parent table and are dropped alongside it,
and cannot be dropped on isolation unless they are detached first.
To support pg_dump'ing these indexes, add commands
CREATE INDEX ON ONLY <table>
(which creates the index on the parent partitioned table, without
recursing) and
ALTER INDEX ATTACH PARTITION
(which is used after the indexes have been created individually on each
partition, to attach them to the parent index). These reconstruct prior
database state exactly.

This was hardly tested at all. The trigger case was lightly tested by
the logical replication tests, but rules and event triggers were not

On Sparc64, use of __attribute__(aligned(8)) with __int128 causes faulty
code generation in gcc versions at least through 5.5.0. We can work around
that by disabling use of __int128, so teach configure to test for the bug.
This solution doesn't fix things for the case of cross-compiling with a
buggy compiler; to support that nicely, we'd need to add a manual disable
switch. Unless more such cases turn up, it doesn't seem worth the work.
Affected users could always edit pg_config.h manually.

When pushing down a join to a foreign server, postgres_fdw constructs
an alternative plan to be used for any EvalPlanQual rechecks that
prove to be necessary. This plan is stored as the outer subplan of
the Foreign Scan implementing the pushed-down join. Previously, this
alternative plan could have a different nominal sort ordering than its
parent, which seemed OK since there will only be one tuple per base
table anyway in the case of an EvalPlanQual recheck. Actually,
though, it caused a problem if that path was used as a building block
for the EvalPlanQual recheck plan of a higher-level foreign join,
because we could end up with a merge join one of whose inputs was not
labelled with the correct sort order. Repair by injecting an extra
Sort node into the EvalPlanQual recheck plan whenever it would
otherwise fail to be sorted at least as well as its parent Foreign
Scan.

If a query against an inheritance tree runs concurrently with an ALTER
TABLE that's disinheriting one of the tree members, it's possible to get
a "could not find inherited attribute" error because after obtaining lock
on the removed member, make_inh_translation_list sees that its columns
have attinhcount=0 and decides they aren't the columns it's looking for.
An ideal fix, perhaps, would avoid including such a just-removed member
table in the query at all; but there seems no way to accomplish that
without adding expensive catalog rechecks or creating a likelihood of
deadlocks. Instead, let's just drop the check on attinhcount. In this
way, a query that's included a just-disinherited child will still
succeed, which is not a completely unreasonable behavior.

If we flatten a subquery whose target list contains constants or
expressions, when those output columns are used in GROUPING SET columns,
the planner was capable of doing the wrong thing by merging a pulled-up
expression into the surrounding expression during const-simplification.
Then the late processing that attempts to match subexpressions to grouping
sets would fail to match those subexpressions to grouping sets, with the
effect that they'd not go to null when expected.
To fix, wrap such subquery outputs in PlaceHolderVars, ensuring that
they preserve their separate identity throughout the planner's expression
processing. This is a bit of a band-aid, because the wrapper defeats
const-simplification even in places where it would be safe to allow.
But a nicer fix would likely be too invasive to back-patch, and the
consequences of the missed optimizations probably aren't large in most
cases.
