The result of PLyUnicode_AsString is already palloc'd,
so pstrdup'ing it is just a waste of time and memory.
More importantly it might confuse people about whether
that's necessary. Doesn't seem important enough to
back-patch, but we should fix it. Spotted by Coverity.
Coverity complained that the list of table names returned by
retrieve_objects() was leaked, and it's right. Potentially this
is quite a lot of memory; however, it's not entirely clear how much
we gain by cleaning it up, since in many operating modes we're going
to need the list until the program is about to exit. Still, it will
win in some cases, so fix the leak.
vacuuming.c is new in v19, and this patch doesn't apply at all cleanly
to the predecessor code in v18. I'm not excited enough about the
issue to devise a back-patch.
One code path forgot to free the separately-malloc'd filename
part of a struct rfile. Another place freed the filename but
forgot the struct rfile itself. These seem worth fixing because
with a large backup we could be dealing with many files.
Coverity found the bug in make_rfile(). I found the other one
by manual inspection.
This small function is only used in one place, and it fails to
handle quoted table names (although the table name portion of the
input should never be quoted in current usage). In addition to
removing make_temptable_name_n() in favor of open-coding it where
needed, this commit ensures the "diff" table name is properly
quoted in order to future-proof this area a bit.

Previously, if primary_slot_name was set to an invalid slot name and
the configuration file was reloaded, both the postmaster and all other
backend processes reported a WARNING. With many processes running,
this could produce a flood of duplicate messages. The problem was that
the GUC check hook for primary_slot_name reported errors at WARNING
level via ereport().
This commit changes the check hook to use GUC_check_errdetail() and
GUC_check_errhint() for error reporting. As with other GUC parameters,
this causes non-postmaster processes to log the message at DEBUG3,
so by default, only the postmaster's message appears in the log file.

Previously it was mistakenly assumed that there's only one window
function argument which needs to be processed by WinGetFuncArgInFrame
or WinGetFuncArgInPartition when IGNORE NULLS option is specified. To
eliminate the limitation, WindowObject->notnull_info is modified from
"uint8 *" to "uint8 **" so that WindowObject->notnull_info could store
pointers to "uint8 *" which holds NOT NULL info corresponding to each
window function argument. Moreover, WindowObject->num_notnull_info is
changed from "int" to "int64 *" so that WindowObject->num_notnull_info
could store the number of NOT NULL info corresponding to each function
argument. Memories for these data structures will be allocated when
WinGetFuncArgInFrame or WinGetFuncArgInPartition is called. Thus no
memory except the pointers is allocated for function arguments which
do not call these functions
Also fix the set mark position logic in WinGetFuncArgInPartition to
not raise a "cannot fetch row before WindowObject's mark position"
error in IGNORE NULLS case.

Previously, when the replay LSN reported in feedback messages from a standby
stopped advancing, for example, due to a recovery conflict, the write_lag and
flush_lag columns in pg_stat_replication would initially update but then stop
progressing. This prevented users from correctly monitoring replication lag.
The problem occurred because when any LSN stopped updating, the lag tracker's
cyclic buffer became full (the write head reached the slowest read head).
In that state, the lag tracker could no longer compute round-trip lag values
correctly.
This commit fixes the issue by handling the slowest read entry (the one
causing the buffer to fill) as a separate overflow entry and freeing space
so the write and other read heads can continue advancing in the buffer.
As a result, write_lag and flush_lag now continue updating even if the reported
replay LSN remains stalled.

5983a4cff added CompactAttribute for storing commonly used fields from
FormData_pg_attribute. 5983a4cff didn't go to the trouble of adjusting
every location where we can use CompactAttribute rather than
FormData_pg_attribute, so here we change the remaining ones.
There are some locations where I've left the code using
FormData_pg_attribute. These are mostly in the ALTER TABLE code. Using
CompactAttribute here seems more risky as often the TupleDesc is being
changed and those changes may not have been flushed to the
CompactAttribute yet.
I've also left record_recv(), record_send(), record_cmp(), record_eq()
and record_image_eq() alone as it's not clear to me that accessing the
CompactAttribute is a win here due to the FormData_pg_attribute still
having to be accessed for most cases. Switching the relevant parts to
use CompactAttribute would result in having to access both for common
cases. Careful benchmarking may reveal that something can be done to
make this better, but in absence of that, the safer option is to leave
these alone.
In ReorderBufferToastReplace(), there was a check to skip attnums < 0
while looping over the TupleDesc. Doing this is redundant since
TupleDescs don't store < 0 attnums. Removing that code allows us to
move to using CompactAttribute.
The change in validateDomainCheckConstraint() just moves fetching the
FormData_pg_attribute into the ERROR path, which is cold due to calling
errstart_cold() and results in code being moved out of the common path.

If a data block to be skipped over is less than 4kB, just read the
data instead of using fseeko(). Experimentation shows that this
avoids useless kernel calls --- possibly quite a lot of them, at
least with current glibc --- while not incurring any extra I/O,
since libc will read 4kB at a time anyway. (There may be platforms
where the default buffer size is different from 4kB, but this
change seems unlikely to hurt in any case.)
We don't expect short data blocks to be common in the wake of
66ec01dc4 and related commits. But older pg_dump files may well
contain very short data blocks, and that will likely be a case
to be concerned with for a long time.
While here, do a little bit of other cleanup in _skipData.
Make "buflen" be size_t not int; it can't really exceed the
range of int, but comparing size_t and int variables is just
asking for trouble. Also, when we initially allocate a buffer
for reading skipped data into, make sure it's at least 4kB to
reduce the odds that we'll shortly have to realloc it bigger.

67a54b9e8 taught the planner to push down HAVING clauses even when
grouping sets are present, as long as the clause does not reference
any columns that are nullable by the grouping sets. However, there
was an oversight: if any empty grouping sets are present, the
aggregation node can produce a row that did not come from the input,
and pushing down a HAVING clause in this case may cause us to fail to
filter out that row.
Currently, non-degenerate HAVING clauses are not pushed down when
empty grouping sets are present, since the empty grouping sets would
nullify the vars they reference. However, degenerate (variable-free)
HAVING clauses are not subject to this restriction and may be
incorrectly pushed down.
To fix, explicitly check for the presence of empty grouping sets and
retain degenerate clauses in HAVING when they are present. This
ensures that we don't emit a bogus aggregated row. A copy of each
such clause is also put in WHERE so that query_planner() can use it in
a gating Result node.
To facilitate this check, this patch expands the groupingSets tree of
the query to a flat list of grouping sets before applying the HAVING
pushdown optimization. This does not add any additional planning
overhead, since we need to do this expansion anyway.
In passing, make a small tweak to preprocess_grouping_sets() by
reordering its initial operations a bit.

Our configure script intended to ensure this, but it supposed that
expr(1) would report an error for integer overflow. Maybe that
was true when the code was written (commit 3c6248a82 of 2008-05-02),
but all the modern expr's I tried will deliver bigger-than-int32
results without complaint. Moreover, if you use --with-segsize-blocks
then there's no check at all.
Ideally we'd add a test in configure itself to check that the value
fits in int, but to do that we'd need to suppose that test(1) handles
bigger-than-int32 numbers correctly. Probably modern ones do, but
that's an assumption I could do without; and I'm not too trusting
about meson either. Instead, let's install a static assertion, so
that even people who ignore all the compiler warnings you get from
such values will be forced to confront the fact that it won't work.
This has been hazardous for awhile, but given that we hadn't heard
a complaint about it till now, I don't feel a need to back-patch.

It emerges that zlib's configuration logic is not robust enough
to guarantee that the macro will have the same ideas about struct
field layout as the library itself does, leading to corruption of
zlib's state struct followed by unintelligible failure messages.
This hazard has existed for a long time, but we'd not noticed
for several reasons:
(1) We only use gzgetc() when trying to read a manually-compressed
TOC file within a directory-format dump, which is a rarely-used
scenario that we weren't even testing before 20ec99589.
(2) No corruption actually occurs unless sizeof(long) is different
from sizeof(off_t) and the platform is big-endian.
(3) Some platforms have already fixed the configuration instability,
at least sufficiently for their environments.
Despite (3), it seems foolish to assume that the problem isn't
going to be present in some environments for a long time to come.
Hence, avoid relying on this macro. We can just #undef it and
fall back on the underlying function of the same name.

This removes a few static functions and replaces them with 2 functions
which aim to be more reusable. The upper planner's pathkey requirements
can be simplified down to operations which require pathkeys in the same
order as the pathkeys for the given operation, and operations which can
make use of a Path's pathkeys in any order.
Here we also add some short-circuiting to truncate_useless_pathkeys(). At
any point we discover that all pathkeys are useful to a single operation,
we can stop checking the remaining operations as we're not going to be
able to find any further useful pathkeys - they're all possibly useful
already. Adjusting this seems to warrant trying to put the checks
roughly in order of least-expensive-first so that the short-circuits
have the most chance of skipping the more expensive checks.
In passing clean up has_useful_pathkeys() as it seems to have grown a
redundant check for group_pathkeys. This isn't needed as
standard_qp_callback will set query_pathkeys if there's any requirement
to have group_pathkeys. All this code does is waste run-time effort and

Commit a1b4f289be improved the hashjoin sizing to also consider the
memory used by BufFiles for batches. The code however had multiple
issues, making it ineffective or not working as expected in some cases.
* The amount of memory needed by buffers was calculated using uint32,
so it would overflow for nbatch >= 262144. If this happened the loop
would exit prematurely and the memory usage would not be reduced.
The nbatch overflow is fixed by reworking the condition to not use a
multiplication at all, so there's no risk of overflow. An explicit
cast was added to a similar calculation in ExecHashIncreaseBatchSize.
* The loop adjusting the nbatch value used hash_table_bytes to calculate
the old/new size, but then updated only space_allowed. The consequence
is the total memory usage was not reduced, but all the memory saved by
reducing the number of batches was used for the internal hash table.
This was fixed by using only space_allowed. This is also more correct,
because hash_table_bytes does not account for skew buckets.
* The code was also doubling multiple parameters (e.g. the number of
buckets for hash table), but was missing overflow protections.
The loop now checks for overflow, and terminates if needed. It'd be
possible to cap the value and continue the loop, but it's not worth
the complexity. And the overflow implies the in-memory hash table is
already very large anyway.
While at it, rework the comment explaining how the memory balancing
works, to make it more concise and easier to understand.
The initial nbatch overflow issue was reported by Vaibhav Jain. The
other issues were noticed by me and Melanie Plageman. Fix by me, with a

pg_prewarm() currently checks for SELECT privileges on the target
relation. However, indexes do not have access rights of their own,
so a role may be denied permission to prewarm an index despite
having the SELECT privilege on its parent table. This commit fixes
this by locking the parent table before the index (to avoid
deadlocks) and checking for SELECT on the parent table. Note that
the code is largely borrowed from
amcheck_lock_relation_and_check().
An obvious downside of this change is the extra AccessShareLock on
the parent table during prewarming, but that isn't expected to
cause too much trouble in practice.

The TAP tests whose ok() calls are changed in this commit were relying
on perl operators, rather than equivalents available in Test::More. For
example, rather than the following:
ok($data =~ qr/expr/m, "expr matching");
ok($data !~ qr/expr/m, "expr not matching");
The new test code uses this equivalent:
like($data, qr/expr/m, "expr matching");
unlike($data, qr/expr/m, "expr not matching");
A huge benefit of the new formulation is that it is possible to know

042_low_level_backup compared the result of a query two times with a
comparison operator based on an integer, while the result should be
compared with a string.
The outcome of the tests is currently not impacted by this change.
However, it could be possible that the tests fail to detect future
issues if the query results become different, for some reason.

040_pg_createsubscriber has been calling safe_psql(), that returns the
result of a SQL query, with ok() without checking the result generated
(in this case 't', for a number of publications).
The outcome of the tests is currently not impacted by this change.
However, it could be possible that the test fails to detect future
issues if the query results become different.
The test is rewritten so as the number of publications is checked. This
is not the fix suggested originally by the author, but this is more
reliable in the long run.
