Commit 16f96c74d neglected to consider the possibility of cross-compiling,
causing cross-compiles to fail at the configure stage unless you'd
selected --with-openssl. Since we're now more or less assuming that
/dev/urandom is available everywhere, it seems reasonable to assume
that the cross-compile target has it too, rather than failing.

When determining whether an index update may be skipped by using HOT, we
can ignore attributes indexed only by BRIN indexes. There are no index
pointers to individual tuples in BRIN, and the page range summary will
be updated anyway as it relies on visibility info.
This also removes rd_indexattr list, and replaces it with rd_attrsvalid
flag. The list was not used anywhere, and a simple flag is sufficient.

Commit 8523492d simplified what it meant for an item to be considered
"dead" to VACUUM: TIDs collected in memory (in preparation for index
vacuuming) must always come from LP_DEAD stub line pointers in heap
pages, found following pruning. This formalized the idea that index
vacuuming (and heap vacuuming) are optional processes. Unlike pruning,
they can be delayed indefinitely, without any risk of that violating
fundamental invariants. For example, leaving LP_DEAD items behind
clearly won't add to the risk of transaction ID wraparound. You can't
have transaction ID wraparound without transaction IDs. Renaming
anything that references DEAD tuples (tuples with storage) reinforces
all this.
Code outside vacuumlazy.c continues to fudge the distinction between
dead/deleted tuples, and LP_DEAD items. This is necessary because
autovacuum scheduling is still mostly driven by "dead items/tuples"
statistics. In the future we may find it useful to replace this model
with something more sophisticated, as a step towards teaching autovacuum
to perform more frequent vacuuming that targeting individual indexes
that happen to be more prone to becoming bloated through version churn.
In passing, simplify some function signatures that deal with VACUUM's
dead_items array.

This change has as direct effect to update the control file's timestamp

that is helpful to keep track of control file updates for those

The term "super-exclusive lock" is an acceptable synonym of "cleanup

Per a complaint from Andres Freund.
Update vacuumlazy.c file header comments (as well as comments above the
lazy_scan_heap function) that were largely written before the
introduction of the HOT optimization, when lazy_scan_heap did far less,
and didn't actually prune during its initial heap pass.
Since lazy_scan_heap now outsources far more work to lower level
functions, it makes sense to introduce the function by talking about the
high level invariant that dictates the order in which each phase takes
place. Also deemphasize the case where we run out of memory for TIDs,
since delaying that discussion makes it easier to talk about issues of
central importance.
Finally, remove discussion of parallel VACUUM from header comments.

Commit 2fd8685e7f simplified the checking of modified attributes that

affecting pages marked PD_PAGE_FULL: don't even try to use HOT to save a

work out this time around, since it can't have worked out last time
around.
Remove the micro-optimization. It could only ever save cycles that are
consumed by the vast majority of heap_update() calls, which hardly seems
worth the added complexity. It also seems quite possible that there are
workloads that will do worse over time by repeated application of the
micro-optimization, despite saving some cycles on average, in the short

The emulation of fstat() in win32stat.c caused two issues with the
existing in-core callers, failing on EINVAL when using a stream as
argument:
- psql's \copy would crash when using a stream.
- pg_recvlogical would fail with -f -.
The tests in copyselect.sql from the main test suite covers the first
case, and there is a TAP test for the second case. However, in both
cases, as the standard streams are always redirected, automated tests
did not notice those issues, requiring a terminal on Windows to be
reproducible.
This issue has been introduced in bed9075, and the origin of the problem
is that GetFileInformationByHandle() does not work directly on streams,
so this commit adds an extra code path to emulate and return a set of
stats that match best with the reality. Note that redirected streams
rely on handles that can be queried with GetFileInformationByHandle(),
but we can rely on GetFinalPathNameByHandleA() to detect this case.

In most places, the variables necessarily store the same value as the
eponymous members of the XLogReaderState that we use during WAL
replay, because ReadRecord() assigns the values from the structure
members to the global variables just after XLogReadRecord() returns.
However, XLogBeginRead() adjusts the structure members but not the
global variables, so after XLogBeginRead() and before the completion
of XLogReadRecord() the values can differ. Otherwise, they must be
identical. According to my analysis, the only place where either
variable is referenced at a point where it might not have the same
value as the structure member is the refrence to EndRecPtr within
XLogPageRead.
Therefore, at every other place where we are using the global
variable, we can just switch to using the structure member instead,
and remove the global variable. However, we can, and in fact should,
do this in XLogPageRead() as well, because at that point in the code,
the global variable will actually store the start of the record we
want to read - either because it's where the last WAL record ended, or
because the read position has been changed using XLogBeginRead since
the last record was read. The structure member, on the other hand,
will already have been updated to point to the end of the record we
just read. Elsewhere, the latter is what we use as an argument to
emode_for_corrupt_record(), so we should do the same here.
This part of the patch is perhaps a bug fix, but I don't think it has
any important consequences, so no back-patch. The point here is just
to continue to whittle down the entirely excessive use of global
variables in xlog.c.

rescanLatestTimeLine() contains a guard against switching to
a timeline that forked off from the current one prior to the
current recovery point, but that guard does not work if the
timeline switch occurs before the first WAL recod (which must
be the checkpoint record) is read. Without this patch, an
improper timeline switch is therefore possible in such cases.
This happens because rescanLatestTimeLine() relies on the global
variable EndRecPtr to understand the current position of WAL
replay. However, EndRecPtr at this point in the code contains
the endpoint of the last-replayed record, not the startpoint or
endpoint of the record being replayed now. Thus, before any
records have been replayed, it's zero, which causes the sanity
check to always pass.
To fix, pass down the correct timeline explicitly. The
EndRecPtr value we want is the one from the xlogreader, which
will be the starting position of the record we're about to
try to read, rather than the global variable, which is the
ending position of the last record we successfully read.
They're usually the same, but not in the corner case described
here.
No back-patch, because in v14 and earlier branhes, we were using
the wrong TLI here as well as the wrong LSN. In master, that was
fixed by commit 4a92a1c3d1, but
that and it's prerequisite patches are too invasive to
back-patch for such a minor issue.

Memoize would always use the hash equality operator for the cache key
types to determine if the current set of parameters were the same as some
previously cached set. Certain types such as floating points where -0.0
and +0.0 differ in their binary representation but are classed as equal by
the hash equality operator may cause problems as unless the join uses the
same operator it's possible that whichever join operator is being used
would be able to distinguish the two values. In which case we may
accidentally return in the incorrect rows out of the cache.
To fix this here we add a binary mode to Memoize to allow it to the
current set of parameters to previously cached values by comparing
bit-by-bit rather than logically using the hash equality operator. This
binary mode is always used for LATERAL joins and it's used for normal
joins when any of the join operators are not hashable.

When a stored expression depends on a user-defined cast, the backend
records the dependency as being on the cast's implementation function
--- or indeed, if there's no cast function involved but just
RelabelType or CoerceViaIO, no dependency is recorded at all. This
is problematic for pg_dump, which is at risk of dumping things in the
wrong order leading to restore failures. Given the lack of previous
reports, the risk isn't that high, but it can be demonstrated if the
cast is used in some view whose rowtype is then used as an input or
result type for some other function. (That results in the view
getting hoisted into the functions portion of the dump, ahead of
the cast.)
A logically bulletproof fix for this would require including the
cast's OID in the parsed form of the expression, whence it could be
extracted by dependency.c, and then the stored dependency would force
pg_dump to do the right thing. Such a change would be fairly invasive,
and certainly not back-patchable. Moreover, since we'd prefer that
an expression using cast syntax be equal() to one doing the same
thing by explicit function call, the cast OID field would have to
have special ignored-by-comparisons semantics, making things messy.
So, let's instead fix this by a very simple hack in pg_dump: change
the object-type priority order so that casts are initially sorted
before functions, immediately after types. This fixes the problem
in a fairly direct way for casts that have no implementation function.
For those that do, the implementation function will be hoisted to just
before the cast by the dependency sorting step, so that we still have
a valid dump order. (I'm not sure that this provides a full guarantee
of no problems; but since it's been like this for many years without
any previous reports, this is probably enough to fix it in practice.)

If a table contains a generated column that's preceded by a dropped

column, and would emit DEFAULT placeholder(s) in the wrong column(s).
This resulted in failures at restore time. The default COPY code path

While we're fixing this, we can be a little smarter about the
situation: (1) avoid unnecessarily fetching the values of generated
columns, (2) omit generated columns from the output, too, if we're
using --column-inserts. While these modes aren't expected to be
as high-performance as the COPY path, we might as well be as
