Per flame graph from Jelte Fennema, COPY FROM ... USING BINARY shows
input validation taking at least 5% of the profile, so it's worth trying
to be more efficient here. With this change, validation of pure ASCII is
nearly 40% faster on contemporary Intel hardware. To make this change

SUSv3 <netinet/in.h> defines struct sockaddr_in6, and all targeted Unix
systems have it. Windows has it in <ws2ipdef.h>. Remove the configure
probe, the macro and a small amount of dead code.
Also remove a mention of IPv6-less builds from the documentation, since

This is similar to commits f5580882 and 077bf2f2 for Unix sockets. Even
though AF_INET6 is an "optional" component of SUSv3, there are no known
modern operating system without it, and it seems even less likely to be

The GRANT statement can now specify WITH INHERIT TRUE or WITH
INHERIT FALSE to control whether the member inherits the granted
role's permissions. For symmetry, you can now likewise write
WITH ADMIN TRUE or WITH ADMIN FALSE to turn ADMIN OPTION on or off.
If a GRANT does not specify WITH INHERIT, the behavior based on
whether the member role is marked INHERIT or NOINHERIT. This means
that if all roles are marked INHERIT or NOINHERIT before any role
grants are performed, the behavior is identical to what we had before;
otherwise, it's different, because ALTER ROLE [NO]INHERIT now only
changes the default behavior of future grants, and has no effect on
existing ones.

This commit moves authn_id into a new global structure called
ClientConnectionInfo (mapping to a MyClientConnectionInfo for each
backend) which is intended to hold all the client information that
should be shared between the backend and any of its parallel workers,
access for extensions and triggers being the primary use case. There is
no need to push all the data of Port to the workers, and authn_id is
quite a generic concept so using a separate structure provides the best
balance (the name of the structure has been suggested by Robert Haas).
While on it, and per discussion as this would be useful for a potential
SYSTEM_USER that can be accessed through parallel workers, a second
field is added for the authentication method, copied directly from
Port.
ClientConnectionInfo is serialized and restored using a new parallel
key and a structure tracks the length of the authn_id, making the
addition of more fields straight-forward.

Backpatch: 15-
Previously, membership of role A in role B could be recorded in the
catalog tables only once. This meant that a new grant of role A to
role B would overwrite the previous grant. For other object types, a
new grant of permission on an object - in this case role A - exists
along side the existing grant provided that the grantor is different.
Either grant can be revoked independently of the other, and
permissions remain so long as at least one grant remains. Make role
grants work similarly.
Previously, when granting membership in a role, the superuser could
specify any role whatsoever as the grantor, but for other object types,
the grantor of record must be either the owner of the object, or a
role that currently has privileges to perform a similar GRANT.
Implement the same scheme for role grants, treating the bootstrap
superuser as the role owner since roles do not have owners. This means
that attempting to revoke a grant, or admin option on a grant, can now
fail if there are dependent privileges, and that CASCADE can be used
to revoke these. It also means that you can't grant ADMIN OPTION on
a role back to a user who granted it directly or indirectly to you,
similar to how you can't give WITH GRANT OPTION on a privilege back
to a role which granted it directly or indirectly to you.
Previously, only the superuser could specify GRANTED BY with a user
other than the current user. Relax that rule to allow the grantor
to be any role whose privileges the current user posseses. This
doesn't improve compatibility with what we do for other object types,
where support for GRANTED BY is entirely vestigial, but it makes this
feature more usable and seems to make sense to change at the same time
we're changing related behaviors.
Along the way, fix "ALTER GROUP group_name ADD USER user_name" to
require the same privileges as "GRANT group_name TO user_name".
Previously, CREATEROLE privileges were sufficient for either, but
only the former form was permissible with ADMIN OPTION on the role.
Now, either CREATEROLE or ADMIN OPTION on the role suffices for
either spelling.

Remove four probes for members of sockaddr_storage. Keep only the probe
for sockaddr's sa_len, which is enough for our two remaining places that
know about _len fields:
1. ifaddr.c needs to know if sockaddr has sa_len to understand the
result of ioctl(SIOCGIFCONF). Only AIX is still using the relevant code
today, but it seems like a good idea to keep it compilable on Linux.
2. ip.c was testing for presence of ss_len to decide whether to fill in
sun_len in our getaddrinfo_unix() function. It's just as good to test
for sa_len. If you have one, you have them all.
(The code in #2 isn't actually needed at all on several OSes I checked
since modern versions ignore sa_len on input to system calls. Proving
that's the case for all relevant OSes is left for another day, but
wouldn't get rid of that last probe anyway if we still want it for #1.)

Previously, "GRANT foo TO bar" or "GRANT foo TO bar GRANTED BY baz"
would record the OID of the grantor in pg_auth_members.grantor, but
that role could later be dropped without modifying or removing the
pg_auth_members record. That's not great, because we typically try
to avoid dangling references in catalog data.
Now, a role grant depends on the grantor, and the grantor can't be
dropped without removing the grant or changing the grantor. "DROP
OWNED BY" will remove the grant, just as it does for other kinds of
privileges. "REASSIGN OWNED BY" will not, again just like what we do
in other cases involving privileges.
pg_auth_members now has an OID column, because that is needed in order
for dependencies to work. It also now has an index on the grantor
column, because otherwise dropping a role would require a sequential
scan of the entire table to see whether the role's OID is in use as
a grantor. That probably wouldn't be too large a problem in practice,
but it seems better to have an index just in case.
A follow-on patch is planned with the goal of more thoroughly
rationalizing the behavior of role grants. This patch is just trying
to do enough to make sure that the data we store in the catalogs is at
some basic level valid.

The present implementations of adjust_appendrel_attrs_multilevel and
its sibling adjust_child_relids_multilevel are very messy, because
they work by reconstructing the relids of the child's immediate
parent and then seeing if that's bms_equal to the relids of the
target parent. Aside from being quite inefficient, this will not
work with planned future changes to make joinrels' relid sets
contain outer-join relids in addition to baserels.
The whole thing can be solved at a stroke by adding explicit parent
and top_parent links to child RelOptInfos, and making these functions
work with RelOptInfo pointers instead of relids. Doing that is
simpler for most callers, too.
In my original version of this patch, I got rid of
RelOptInfo.top_parent_relids on the grounds that it was now redundant.
However, that adds a lot of code churn in places that otherwise would
not need changing, and arguably the extra indirection needed to fetch
top_parent->relids in those places costs something. So this version
leaves that field in place.

On BSD-family systems, header <sys/sockio.h> defines socket ioctl
numbers like SIOCGIFCONF. Only AIX is using those now, but it defines
them in <net/if.h> anyway.
Supposing some PostgreSQL hacker wants to test that AIX-only code path
on a more common development system by pretending not to have
getifaddrs(). It's enough to include <sys/ioctl.h>, at least on macOS,
FreeBSD and Linux, and we're already doing that.
Up to now, callers of find_placeholder_info() were required to pass
a flag indicating if it's OK to make a new PlaceHolderInfo. That'd
be fine if the callers had free choice, but they do not. Once we
begin deconstruct_jointree() it's no longer OK to make more PHIs;
while callers before that always want to create a PHI if it's not
there already. So there's no freedom of action, only the opportunity
to cause bugs by creating PHIs too late. Let's get rid of that in
favor of adding a state flag PlannerInfo.placeholdersFrozen, which
we can set at the point where it's no longer OK to make more PHIs.
This patch also simplifies a couple of call sites that were using
complicated logic to avoid calling find_placeholder_info() as much
as possible. Now that that lookup is O(1) thanks to the previous
commit, the extra bitmap manipulations are probably a net negative.

Up to now we've just searched the placeholder_list when we want to
find the PlaceHolderInfo with a given ID. While there's no evidence
of that being a problem in the field, an upcoming patch will add
find_placeholder_info() calls in build_joinrel_tlist(), which seems
likely to make it more of an issue: a joinrel emitting lots of
PlaceHolderVars would incur O(N^2) cost, and we might be building
a lot of joinrels in complex queries. Hence, add an array that
can be indexed directly by phid to make the lookups constant-time.

Since HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS is now defined unconditionally, remove the macro
and drop a small amount of dead code.
The last known systems not to have them (as far as I know at least) were
QNX, which we de-supported years ago, and Windows, which now has them.
If a new OS ever shows up with the POSIX sockets API but without working
AF_UNIX, it'll presumably still be able to compile the code, and fail at
runtime with an unsupported address family error. We might want to
consider adding a HINT that you should turn off the option to use it if
your network stack doesn't support it at that point, but it doesn't seem
worth making the relevant code conditional at compile time.
Also adjust a couple of places in the docs and comments that referred to

still gets a special mention in those places, though, because we don't

Assume that we can use LWARX hint flags and the LWSYNC instruction
on any PPC machine. The check on the assembler's behavior was only
needed for Apple's old assembler, which is no longer of interest
now that we've de-supported all PPC-era versions of macOS (thanks
to them not having clock_gettime()). Also, given an up-to-date
assembler these instructions work even on Apple's old hardware.
It seems quite unlikely that anyone would be interested in running
current Postgres on PPC hardware that's so old as to not have
these instructions.
Hence, rip out associated configure test and manual configuration
options, and just use the modernized instructions all the time.
Also, update atomics/arch-ppc.h to use these instructions as well.
(It was already using LWSYNC unconditionally in another place,
providing further proof that nobody is using PG on hardware old
enough to have a problem with that.)

Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION
records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that
information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart,
if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction
that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the
snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong
snapshot.
To fix this problem, this change adds the list of transaction IDs and
sub-transaction IDs, that have modified catalogs and are running during
snapshot serialization, to the serialized snapshot. After restart or
otherwise, when we restore from such a serialized snapshot, the
corresponding list is restored in memory. Now, when decoding a COMMIT
record, we check both the list and the ReorderBuffer to see if the
transaction has modified catalogs.
Since this adds additional information to the serialized snapshot, we
cannot backpatch it. For back branches, we took another approach.
We remember the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS
record after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark
the transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of
initial running transactions and its commit record has
XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. This doesn't require any file format changes but
the transaction will end up being added to the snapshot even if it has
only relcache invalidations. But that won't be a problem since we use
snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs.

Previously, if an extension script did CREATE OR REPLACE and there was
an existing object not belonging to the extension, it would overwrite
the object and adopt it into the extension. This is problematic, first
because the overwrite is probably unintentional, and second because we
didn't change the object's ownership. Thus a hostile user could create
an object in advance of an expected CREATE EXTENSION command, and would
then have ownership rights on an extension object, which could be
modified for trojan-horse-type attacks.
Hence, forbid CREATE OR REPLACE of an existing object unless it already
belongs to the extension. (Note that we've always forbidden replacing
an object that belongs to some other extension; only the behavior for
previously-free-standing objects changes here.)
For the same reason, also fail CREATE IF NOT EXISTS when there is
an existing object that doesn't belong to the extension.
