Until d2ea2d310d, the PS_USE_PS_STRINGS
option was used on the GNU/Hurd. As this option got removed and
PS_USE_CLOBBER_ARGV appears to work fine nowadays on the Hurd, define
this one to re-enable process title changes on this platform.
In the 14 and 15 branches, the existing test for __hurd__ (added 25
years ago by commit 209aa77d, removed in 16 by the above commit) is left
unchanged for now as it was activating slightly different code paths and
would need investigation by a Hurd user.

When instrumenting a MERGE command containing both WHEN NOT MATCHED BY
SOURCE and WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET actions using EXPLAIN ANALYZE, a
concurrent update of the target relation could lead to an Assert
failure in show_modifytable_info(). In a non-assert build, this would
lead to an incorrect value for "skipped" tuples in the EXPLAIN output,
rather than a crash.
This could happen if the concurrent update caused a matched row to no
longer match, in which case ExecMerge() treats the single originally
matched row as a pair of not matched rows, and potentially executes 2
not-matched actions for the single source row. This could then lead to
a state where the number of rows processed by the ModifyTable node
exceeds the number of rows produced by its source node, causing
"skipped_path" in show_modifytable_info() to be negative, triggering
the Assert.
Fix this in ExecMergeMatched() by incrementing the instrumentation
tuple count on the source node whenever a concurrent update of this
kind is detected, if both kinds of merge actions exist, so that the
number of source rows matches the number of actions potentially
executed, and the "skipped" tuple count is correct.
Back-patch to v17, where support for WHEN NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE
actions was introduced.

Previously, when pgbench ran a custom script that triggered retriable errors
(e.g., deadlocks) followed by multiple \syncpipeline commands in pipeline mode,
the following assertion failure could occur:
Assertion failed: (res == ((void*)0)), function discardUntilSync, file pgbench.c, line 3594.
The issue was that discardUntilSync() assumed a pipeline sync result
(PGRES_PIPELINE_SYNC) would always be followed by either another sync result
or NULL. This assumption was incorrect: when multiple sync requests were sent,
a sync result could instead be followed by another result type. In such cases,
discardUntilSync() mishandled the results, leading to the assertion failure.
This commit fixes the issue by making discardUntilSync() correctly handle cases
where a pipeline sync result is followed by other result types. It now continues
discarding results until another pipeline sync followed by NULL is reached.
Backpatched to v17, where support for \syncpipeline command in pgbench was
introduced.

applied during INSERT ... ON CONFLICT and MERGE. Fix that, and try to

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

Previous commit fixed a bug where VACUUM would truncate the CLOG

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

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.

Previously, error messages for oversized injection point names, libraries,
and functions showed buffer sizes (64, 128, 128) instead of the usable
character limits (63, 127, 127) as it did not count for the
zero-terminated byte, which was confusing. These messages are adjusted
to show better the reality.
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
to care about based on the lack of complaints). However, this is a
testing facility let's keep the logic consistent across all the branches
where this code exists, as there is an argument in favor of out-of-core
extensions that use injection points.

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.

In generate_orderedappend_paths(), there is an assumption that a child
relation's row estimate is always greater than zero. There is an
Assert verifying this assumption, and the estimate is also used to
convert an absolute tuple count into a fraction.
However, this assumption is not always valid -- for example, upper
relations can have their row estimates unset, resulting in a value of
zero. This can cause an assertion failure in debug builds or lead to
the tuple fraction being computed as infinity in production builds.
To fix, use the row estimate from the cheapest_total path to compute
the tuple fraction. The row estimate in this path should already have
been forced to a valid value.
In passing, update the comment for generate_orderedappend_paths() to
note that the function also considers the cheapest-fractional case
when not all tuples need to be retrieved. That is, it collects all
the cheapest fractional paths and builds an ordered append path for
each interesting ordering.

The test introduced by 17b2d5ec75 verifies that a WAL receiver
survives across a timeline jump by searching the server logs for
termination messages. However, it called restart() before the timeline
switch, which kills the WAL receiver and may log the exact message being
checked, hence failing the test. As TAP tests reuse the same log file
across restarts, a rotate_logfile() is used before the restart so as the
log matching check is not impacted by log entries generated by a
previous shutdown.
Recent changes to file handle inheritance altered I/O timing enough to
make this fail consistently while testing another patch.
While on it, this adds an extra check based on a PID comparison. This
test may lead to false positives as it could be possible that the WAL
receiver has processed a timeline jump before the initial PID is
grabbed, but it should be good enough in most cases.
Like 17b2d5ec75, backpatch down to v13.

The comment for ChangeVarNodes() refers to a parameter named
change_RangeTblRef, which does not exist in the code.
The comment for ChangeVarNodesExtended() contains an extra space,
while the comment for replace_relid_callback() has an awkward line
break and a typo.
This patch fixes these issues and revises some sentences for smoother
wording.
Oversights in commits ab42d643c and fc069a3a6.

First, the assertions in assign_io_method() were the wrong way round. Second,
the lengthof() assertion checked the length of io_method_options, which is the
wrong array to check and is always longer than pgaio_method_ops_table.
While add it, add a static assert to ensure pgaio_method_ops_table and
io_method_options stay in sync.
Per coverity and Tom Lane.

In 2a0faed9d7, which added JIT compilation support for expressions, I
accidentally used sizeof(LLVMBasicBlockRef *) instead of
sizeof(LLVMBasicBlockRef) as part of computing the size of an allocation. That
turns out to have no real negative consequences due to LLVMBasicBlockRef being
a pointer itself (and thus having the same size). It still is wrong and
confusing, so fix it.

Allow pg_newlocale_from_collation(C_COLLATION_OID) to work even if
there's no catalog access, which some extensions expect.
Not known to be a bug without extensions involved, but backport to 18.
Also corrects an issue in master with dummy_c_locale (introduced in
commit 5a38104b36) where deterministic was not set. That wasn't a bug,
but could have been if that structure was used more widely.

This commit adds CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS to the shared buffer iteration
loops in EvictRelUnpinnedBuffers and EvictAllUnpinnedBuffers. These
functions, used by pg_buffercache's pg_buffercache_evict_relation and
pg_buffercache_evict_all, can now be interrupted during long-running
operations.
Backpatch to version 18, where these functions and their corresponding
pg_buffercache functions were introduced.

Commit a95e3d84c0 added ActiveSnapshot push+pop when processing
work-items (BRIN autosummarization), but forgot to handle the case of
a transaction failing during the run, which drops the snapshot untimely.
Fix by making the pop conditional on an element being actually there.

Debian Trixie CI images are generated now [1], so use them with the
following changes:
- detect_stack_use_after_return=0 option is added to the ASAN_OPTIONS
because ASAN uses a "shadow stack" to track stack variable lifetimes
and this confuses Postgres' stack depth check [2].
- Perl is updated to the newer version (perl5.40-i386-linux-gnu).
- LLVM-14 is no longer default installation, no need to force using
LLVM-16.
- Switch MinGW CC/CXX to x86_64-w64-mingw32ucrt-* to fix build failure
from missing _iswctype_l in mingw-w64 v12 headers.

Backpatch: 15-, where CI support was added
When building intermediate TID lists during parallel GIN builds, split
the sorted lists into smaller chunks, to limit the amount of memory
needed when merging the chunks later.
The leader may need to keep in memory up to one chunk per worker, and
possibly one extra chunk (before evicting some of the data). The code
processing item pointers uses regular palloc/repalloc calls, which means
it's subject to the MaxAllocSize (1GB) limit.
We could fix this by allowing huge allocations, but that'd require
changes in many places without much benefit. Larger chunks do not
actually improve performance, so the memory usage would be wasted.
Fixed by limiting the chunk size to not hit MaxAllocSize. Each worker
gets a fair share.
This requires remembering the number of participating workers, in a
place that can be accessed from the callback. Luckily, the bs_worker_id
field in GinBuildState was unused, so repurpose that.
Report by Greg Smith, investigation and fix by me. Batchpatched to 18,
where parallel GIN builds were introduced.

A generated column may end up being part of the partition key
expression, if it's specified as an expression e.g. "(<generated
column name>)" or if the partition key expression contains a whole-row
reference, even though we do not allow a generated column to be part
of partition key expression. Fix this hole.
