On the CREATE POLICY page, the "Policies Applied by Command Type"
table was missing MERGE ... THEN DELETE and some of the policies
applied during INSERT ... ON CONFLICT and MERGE. Fix that, and try to
improve readability by listing the various MERGE cases separately,
rather than together with INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Mention COPY ... TO
along with SELECT, since it behaves in the same way. In addition,
document which policy violations cause errors to be thrown, and which
just cause rows to be silently ignored.
Also, a paragraph above the table states that INSERT ... ON CONFLICT
DO UPDATE only checks the WITH CHECK expressions of INSERT policies
for rows appended to the relation by the INSERT path, which is
incorrect -- all rows proposed for insertion are checked, regardless
of whether they end up being inserted. Fix that, and also mention that
the same applies to INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING.
In addition, in various other places on that page, clarify how the
different types of policy are applied to different commands, and
whether or not errors are thrown when policy checks do not pass.
Backpatch to all supported versions. Prior to v17, MERGE did not
support RETURNING, and so MERGE ... THEN INSERT would never check new
rows against SELECT policies. Prior to v15, MERGE was not supported at
all.

Issue introduced by 84fb27511d. I have missed this diff while
adding pgoff_t to the typedef list of pgindent, while addressing a
separate indentation issue.
Per buildfarm member koel.
PostgreSQL's Windows port has never been able to handle files larger
than 2GB due to the use of off_t for file offsets, only 32-bit on
Windows. This causes signed integer overflow at exactly 2^31 bytes when
trying to handle files larger than 2GB, for the routines touched by this
commit.
Note that large files are forbidden by ./configure (3c6248a828) and
meson (recent change, see 79cd66f28c). This restriction also exists
in v16 and older versions for the now-dead MSVC scripts.
The code base already defines pgoff_t as __int64 (64-bit) on Windows for
this purpose, and some function declarations in headers use it, but many
internals still rely on off_t. This commit switches more routines to
use pgoff_t, offering more portability, for areas mainly related to file
extensions and storage.
These are not critical for WAL segments yet, which have currently a
maximum size allowed of 1GB (well, this opens the door at allowing a
larger size for them). This matters more for segment files if we want
to lift the large file restriction in ./configure and meson in the
future, which would make sense to remove once/if all traces of off_t are
gone from the tree. This can additionally matter for out-of-core code
that may want files larger than 2GB in places where off_t is four bytes
in size.
Note that off_t is still used in other parts of the tree like
buffile.c, WAL sender/receiver, base backup, pg_combinebackup, etc.
These other code paths can be addressed separately, and their update
will be required if we want to remove the large file restriction in the
future. This commit is a good first cut in itself towards more
portability, hopefully.
On Unix-like systems, pgoff_t is defined as off_t, so this change only
affects Windows behavior.

pg_logical_slot_get_changes_guts() previously assigned InvalidXLogRecPtr to

Previous commit fixed a bug where VACUUM would truncate the CLOG

has just made a local copy of an async SLRU page which contains old
XIDs, vacuum can concurrently truncate the CLOG covering those XIDs,
and the backend still gets an error when it calls
TransactionIdDidCommit() on those XIDs in the local copy. This commit
fixes that race condition.

The async notification queue contains the XID of the sender, and when
processing notifications we call TransactionIdDidCommit() on the
XID. But we had no safeguards to prevent the CLOG segments containing
those XIDs from being truncated away. As a result, if a backend didn't
for some reason process its notifications for a long time, or when a
new backend issued LISTEN, you could get an error like:
test=# listen c21;
ERROR: 58P01: could not access status of transaction 14279685
DETAIL: Could not open file "pg_xact/000D": No such file or directory.
LOCATION: SlruReportIOError, slru.c:1087
To fix, make VACUUM "freeze" the XIDs in the async notification queue
before truncating the CLOG. Old XIDs are replaced with
FrozenTransactionId or InvalidTransactionId.
Note: This commit is not a full fix. A race condition remains, where a
backend is executing asyncQueueReadAllNotifications() and has just
made a local copy of an async SLRU page which contains old XIDs, while
vacuum concurrently truncates the CLOG covering those XIDs. When the
backend then calls TransactionIdDidCommit() on those XIDs from the
local copy, you still get the error. The next commit will fix that
remaining race condition.

Previously, if async notify processing encountered an error, we would
report the error to the client and advance our read position past the
offending entry to prevent trying to process it over and over
again. Trying to continue after an error has a few problems however:
- We have no way of telling the client that a notification was
lost. They get an ERROR, but that doesn't tell you much. As such,
it's not clear if keeping the connection alive after losing a
notification is a good thing. Depending on the application logic,
missing a notification could cause the application to get stuck
waiting, for example.
- If the connection is idle, PqCommReadingMsg is set and any ERROR is
turned into FATAL anyway.
- We bailed out of the notification processing loop on first error
without processing any subsequent notifications. The subsequent
notifications would not be processed until another notify interrupt
arrives. For example, if there were two notifications pending, and
processing the first one caused an ERROR, the second notification
would not be processed until someone sent a new NOTIFY.
This commit changes the behavior so that any ERROR while processing
async notifications is turned into FATAL, causing the client
connection to be terminated. That makes the behavior more consistent
as that's what happened in idle state already, and terminating the
connection is a clear signal to the application that it might've
missed some notifications.
The reason to do this now is that the next commits will change the
notification processing code in a way that would make it harder to
skip over just the offending notification entry on error.

The limit enforced for the private area was also too strict by one byte,
as specifying a zone worth exactly INJ_PRIVATE_MAXLEN should be able to
work because three is no zero-terminated byte in this case.
This is a stylistic change (well, mostly, a private_area size of exactly
1024 bytes can be defined with this change, something that nobody seem

If you run pg_controldata on a cluster that has been initialized with
different PG_CONTROL_VERSION than what the pg_controldata program has
been compiled with, pg_controldata will still try to interpret the
control file, but the result is likely to be somewhat nonsensical. How
nonsensical it is depends on the differences between the versions. If
sizeof(ControlFileData) differs between the versions, the CRC will not
match and you get a warning of that, but otherwise you get no
warning.
Looking back at recent PG_CONTROL_VERSION updates, all changes that
would mess up the printed values have also changed
sizeof(ControlFileData), but there's no guarantee of that in future
versions.
Add an explicit check and warning for version number mismatch before
the CRC check. That way, you get a more clear warning if you use the
pg_controldata binary from wrong version, and if we change the control
file in the future in a way that doesn't change
sizeof(ControlFileData), this ensures that you get a warning in that
case too.

generic-gcc.h maps our read and write barriers to C11 acquire and
release fences using compiler builtins, for platforms where we don't
have our own hand-rolled assembler. This is apparently enough for GCC,
but the C11 memory model is only defined in terms of atomic accesses,
and our barriers for non-atomic, non-volatile accesses were not always
respected under Clang's stricter interpretation of the standard.
This explains the occasional breakage observed on new RISC-V + Clang
animal greenfly in lock-free PgAioHandle manipulation code containing a
repeating pattern of loads and read barriers. The problem can also be
observed in code generated for MIPS and LoongAarch, though we aren't
currently testing those with Clang, and on x86, though we use our own
assembler there. The scariest aspect is that we use the generic version
on very common ARM systems, but it doesn't seem to reorder the relevant
code there (or we'd have debugged this long ago).
Fix by inserting an explicit compiler barrier. It expands to an empty
assembler block declared to have memory side-effects, so registers are
flushed and reordering is prevented. In those respects this is like the
architecture-specific assembler versions, but the compiler is still in
charge of generating the appropriate fence instruction. Done for write
barriers on principle, though concrete problems have only been observed
with read barriers.

The documentation stated that the directory specified by --file
must not exist, but pg_dump does allow for empty directories to
be specified and used.
