The previous code was allocating more memory and copying more data than
necessary because it specified the wrong PgStat_KindInfo member as the
size argument for MemoryContextAlloc and memcpy, respectively.
Although these issues exist since 5891c7a8e, there have been no reports
from the field. So for now, it seems sufficient to fix them in master.

Consistently prevent nbtree array advancement from treating a scankey as
required when operating in pstate.forcenonrequired mode. Otherwise, we
risk a NULL pointer dereference. This was possible in the path where
_bt_check_compare is called to recheck a tuple that advanced all of the
scan's arrays to matching values: its continuescan=false handling
expects _bt_advance_array_keys to have been called with a valid pstate,
but it'll always be NULL during sktrig_required=false calls (which is
how _bt_advance_array_keys must be called when pstate.forcenonrequired).

To insert the merged GIN entries in _gin_parallel_merge, the leader
calls ginEntryInsert(). This may allocate memory, e.g. for a new leaf
tuple. This was allocated in the PortalContext, and kept until the end
of the index build. For most GIN indexes the amount of leaked memory is
negligible, but for custom opclasses with large keys it may cause OOMs.
Fixed by calling ginEntryInsert() in a temporary memory context, reset
after each insert. Other ginEntryInsert() callers do this too, except
that the context is reset after batches of inserts. More frequent resets
don't seem to hurt performance, it may even help it a bit.

We only need a tuplestore if we're actually going to accumulate
multiple result tuples. Obviously then we don't need one for non-set-
returning functions; but even a SRF doesn't need one if we decide to
use "lazyEval" (one row at a time) mode. In these cases, it's
sufficient to use the junkfilter's result slot to hold the single row
that's due to be returned. We just need to "materialize" that slot
to ensure it holds onto the data past shutdown of the sub-executor.
The original intent of this patch was partially to save a few cycles
(by not putting tuples into a tuplestore only to pull them back out
immediately), but mostly to ensure that we don't use a tuplestore
in non-set-returning functions. That's because I had concerns
about whether a tuplestore is safe to keep across queries,
which was possible for functions invoked via long-lived FmgrInfos
such as those kept in the typcache. There are no cases where SRFs
are called that way, so getting rid of the tuplestore in non-SRFs
should make things safer.
However, it emerges that running fmgr_sql in a short-lived context
(as 595d1efed made it do) makes the existing coding unsafe anyway:
we can end up with a long-lived TupleTableSlot holding a freeable
reference to a short-lived tuple, resulting in a double-free crash.
Not trying to pull tuples out of the tuplestore using that slot
dodges the problem, so I'm going to commit this now rather than
invent a band-aid solution for v18.

For self-referencing foreign keys in partitioned tables, we weren't
handling creation of pg_constraint rows during CREATE TABLE PARTITION AS
as well as ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION. This is an old bug -- mostly,
we broke this in 614a406b4f while trying to fix it (so 12.13, 13.9,
14.6 and 15.0 and up all behave incorrectly). This commit reverts part
of that with additional fixes for full correctness, and installs more
tests to verify the parts we broke, not just the catalog contents but
also the user-visible behavior.
Backpatch to all live branches. In branches 13 and 14, commit
46a8c27a72 changed the behavior during DETACH to drop a FK
constraint rather than trying to repair it, because the complete fix of
repairing catalog constraints was problematic due to lack of previous
fixes. For this reason, the test behavior in those branches is a bit
different. However, as best as I can tell, the fix works correctly
there.
In release notes we have to recommend that all self-referencing foreign
keys on partitioned tables be recreated if partitions have been created
or attached after the FK was created, keeping in mind that violating
rows might already be present on the referencing side.

The extension_control_path setting (commit 4f7f7b0375) did not
support extensions that set a custom "directory" setting in their
control file. Very few extensions use that and during the discussion
on the previous commit it was suggested to maybe remove that
functionality. But a fix was easier than initially thought, so this
just adds that support. The fix is to use the control->control_dir as
a share dir to return the path of the extension script files.
To make this work more sensibly overall, the directory suffix
"extension" is no longer to be included in the extension_control_path
value. To quote the patch, it would be
-extension_control_path = '/usr/local/share/postgresql/extension:/home/my_project/share/extension:$system'
+extension_control_path = '/usr/local/share/postgresql:/home/my_project/share:$system'
During the initial patch, there was some discussion on which of these
two approaches would be better, and the committed patch was a 50/50
decision. But the support for the "directory" setting pushed it the
other way, and also it seems like many people didn't like the previous
behavior much.

Oversight in b0635bfda. -lintl is necessary for gettext on Mac, which
libpq-oauth depends on via pgport/pgcommon. (I'd incorrectly removed
this change from an earlier version of the patch, where it was suggested
by Peter Eisentraut.)
Per buildfarm member indri.
The additional packaging footprint of the OAuth Curl dependency, as well
as the existence of libcurl in the address space even if OAuth isn't
ever used by a client, has raised some concerns. Split off this
dependency into a separate loadable module called libpq-oauth.
When configured using --with-libcurl, libpq.so searches for this new
module via dlopen(). End users may choose not to install the libpq-oauth
module, in which case the default flow is disabled.
For static applications using libpq.a, the libpq-oauth staticlib is a
mandatory link-time dependency for --with-libcurl builds. libpq.pc has
been updated accordingly.
The default flow relies on some libpq internals. Some of these can be
safely duplicated (such as the SIGPIPE handlers), but others need to be
shared between libpq and libpq-oauth for thread-safety. To avoid
exporting these internals to all libpq clients forever, these
dependencies are instead injected from the libpq side via an
initialization function. This also lets libpq communicate the offsets of
PGconn struct members to libpq-oauth, so that we can function without
crashing if the module on the search path came from a different build of
Postgres. (A minor-version upgrade could swap the libpq-oauth module out
from under a long-running libpq client before it does its first load of
the OAuth flow.)
This ABI is considered "private". The module has no SONAME or version
symlinks, and it's named libpq-oauth-<major>.so to avoid mixing and
matching across Postgres versions. (Future improvements may promote this
"OAuth flow plugin" to a first-class concept, at which point we would
need a public API to replace this anyway.)
Additionally, NLS support for error messages in b3f0be788a was
incomplete, because the new error macros weren't being scanned by
xgettext. Fix that now.
Per request from Tom Lane and Bruce Momjian. Based on an initial patch
by Daniel Gustafsson, who also contributed docs changes. The "bare"
dlopen() concept came from Thomas Munro. Many people reviewed the design
and implementation; thank you!

Add a documentation warning to ts_headline() pointing out that, when
working with untrusted input documents, the output is not guaranteed
to be safe for direct inclusion in web pages. This is because, while
it does remove some XML tags from the input, it doesn't remove all
HTML markup, and so the result may be unsafe (e.g., it might permit
XSS attacks).
To guard against that, all HTML markup should be removed from the
input, making it plain text, or the output should be passed through an
HTML sanitizer.
In addition, document precisely what the default text search parser
recognises as valid XML tags, since that's what determines which XML

Presently, --missing-stats-only skips relations with reltuples set
to 0 because empty relations don't get optimizer statistics.
However, before v14, a reltuples value of 0 was ambiguous: it could
either mean the relation is empty, or it could mean that it hadn't
yet been vacuumed or analyzed. (Commit 3d351d916b taught v14 and
newer to use -1 for the latter case.) This ambiguity can cause
--missing-stats-only to inadvertently skip relations that need
optimizer statistics after upgrades to v18 and newer (since
reltuples is now transferred from the old cluster).
To fix, simply remove the check for reltuples != 0. This will
cause --missing-stats-only to analyze some empty tables, but that
doesn't seem too terrible a trade-off.

This reverts commit 38da053463, which
attempted to preserve our ability to start with only 60 semaphores.
Subsequent changes (particularly 55b454d0e) have put that idea pretty
much permanently out of reach: people wishing to use Postgres v18 on
OpenBSD or NetBSD will have no choice but to increase those platforms'
default values of SEMMNI and SEMMNS.
Hence, revert 38da05346's changes in SEMAS_PER_SET and the minimum
tested value of max_connections. Adjust a comment from the subsequent
patch 6d0154196, and tweak the wording in runtime.sgml to make it
clear that changing SEMMNI/SEMMNS is no longer even a little bit
optional on these platforms.
Although 38da05346 was later back-patched into v17, leave that branch
alone: it's still capable of starting with 60 semaphores, and there's
no reason to break that.

this change will move that option from SERVER to USER MAPPING, which we
need to avoid.
But upon further discussion, we don't really want our FDWs to use our
builtin Device Authorization flow at all, for several reasons:
- the URL and code would be printed to the server logs, not sent over
the client connection
- tokens are not cached/refreshed, so every single connection has to be
manually authorized by a user with a browser
- oauth_client_secret needs to belong to the foreign server, but options
on SERVER are publicly accessible
- all non-superusers would need password_required=false, which is
dangerous
Future OAuth work can use FDWs as a motivating use case. But for now,
disallow all oauth_* connection options for these two extensions.
