Yet another bug in the ilk of commits a7ee7c851 and 741b88435. In
741b88435, we took care to clear the memorized location of the
downlink when we split the parent page, because splitting the parent
page can move the downlink. But we missed that even *updating* a tuple
on the parent can move it, because updating a tuple on a gist page is
implemented as a delete+insert, so the updated tuple gets moved to the
end of the page.
This commit fixes the bug in two different ways (belt and suspenders):
1. Clear the downlink when we update a tuple on the parent page, even
if it's not split. This the same approach as in commits a7ee7c851
and 741b88435.
I also noticed that gistFindCorrectParent did not clear the
'downlinkoffnum' when it stepped to the right sibling. Fix that
too, as it seems like a clear bug even though I haven't been able
to find a test case to hit that.
2. Change gistFindCorrectParent so that it treats 'downlinkoffnum'
merely as a hint. It now always first checks if the downlink is
still at that location, and if not, it scans the page like before.
That's more robust if there are still more cases where we fail to
clear 'downlinkoffnum' that we haven't yet uncovered. With this,
it's no longer necessary to meticulously clear 'downlinkoffnum',
so this makes the previous fixes unnecessary, but I didn't revert
them because it still seems nice to clear it when we know that the
downlink has moved.
Also add the test case using the same test data that Alexander
posted. I tried to reduce it to a smaller test, and I also tried to
reproduce this with different test data, but I was not able to, so
let's just include what we have.
Backpatch to v12, like the previous fixes.

bae868ca removed a check that was still needed. If you had an
xl_tot_len at the end of a page that was too small for a record header,
but not big enough to span onto the next page, we'd immediately perform
the CRC check using a bogus large length. Because of arbitrary coding
differences between the CRC implementations on different platforms,
nothing very bad happened on common modern systems. On systems using
the _sb8.c fallback we could segfault.
Restore that check, add a new assertion and supply a test for that case.

For some reason I used not_like = { pg_dumpall_dbprivs => 1, } in the test

for two reasons: 1) not_like isn't a valid test condition 2) the database
should not be dumped in any of the tests. Due to 1), the test achieved its

Parse analysis of a CallStmt will inject mutable information,
for instance the OID of the called procedure, so that subsequent
DDL may create a need to re-parse the CALL. We failed to detect
this for CALLs in plpgsql routines, because no dependency information
was collected when putting a CallStmt into the plan cache. That
could lead to misbehavior or strange errors such as "cache lookup
failed".
Before commit ee895a655, the issue would only manifest for CALLs
appearing in atomic contexts, because we re-planned non-atomic
CALLs every time through anyway.
It is now apparent that extract_query_dependencies() probably
needs a special case for every utility statement type for which
stmt_requires_parse_analysis() returns true. I wanted to add
something like Assert(!stmt_requires_parse_analysis(...)) when
falling out of extract_query_dependencies_walker without doing
anything, but there are API issues as well as a more fundamental
point: stmt_requires_parse_analysis is supposed to be applied to
raw parser output, so it'd be cheating to assume it will give the
correct answer for post-parse-analysis trees. I contented myself
with adding a comment.

xl_tot_len comes first in a WAL record. Usually we don't trust it to be
the true length until we've validated the record header. If the record
header was split across two pages, previously we wouldn't do the
validation until after we'd already tried to allocate enough memory to
hold the record, which was bad because it might actually be garbage
bytes from a recycled WAL file, so we could try to allocate a lot of
memory. Release 15 made it worse.
Since 70b4f82a4b, we'd at least generate an end-of-WAL condition if the
garbage 4 byte value happened to be > 1GB, but we'd still try to
allocate up to 1GB of memory bogusly otherwise. That was an
improvement, but unfortunately release 15 tries to allocate another
object before that, so you could get a FATAL error and recovery could
fail.
We can fix both variants of the problem more fundamentally using
pre-existing page-level validation, if we just re-order some logic.
The new order of operations in the split-header case defers all memory
allocation based on xl_tot_len until we've read the following page. At
that point we know that its first few bytes are not recycled data, by
checking its xlp_pageaddr, and that its xlp_rem_len agrees with
xl_tot_len on the preceding page. That is strong evidence that
xl_tot_len was truly the start of a record that was logged.
This problem was most likely to occur on a standby, because
walreceiver.c recycles WAL files without zeroing out trailing regions of
each page. We could fix that too, but it wouldn't protect us from rare
crash scenarios where the trailing zeroes don't make it to disk.
With reliable xl_tot_len validation in place, the ancient policy of
considering malloc failure to indicate corruption at end-of-WAL seems
quite surprising, but changing that is left for later work.
Also included is a new TAP test to exercise various cases of end-of-WAL
detection by writing contrived data into the WAL from Perl.
Back-patch to 12. We decided not to put this change into the final

In older branches, COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN failed to propagate
the current transaction's properties to the new transaction if
there was any open subtransaction (unreleased savepoint).
Instead, some previous transaction's properties would be restored.
This is because the "if (s->chain)" check in CommitTransactionCommand
examined the wrong instance of the "chain" flag and falsely
concluded that it didn't need to save transaction properties.
Our regression tests would have noticed this, except they used
identical transaction properties for multiple tests in a row,
so that the faulty behavior was not distinguishable from correct
behavior.
Commit 12d768e70 fixed the problem in v15 and later, but only rather
accidentally, because I removed the "if (s->chain)" test to avoid a
compiler warning, while not realizing that the warning was flagging a
real bug.
In v14 and before, remove the if-test and save transaction properties
unconditionally; just as in the newer branches, that's not expensive
enough to justify thinking harder.
Add the comment and extra regression test to v15 and later to
forestall any future recurrence, but there's no live bug in those
branches.

The transactions and subtransactions array that was allocated under

Commit 0668719801 changed XLogPageRead() so that it validated the page
header, if invalid page header was found reset the error message and
retried reading the page, to fix the scenario where streaming standby
got stuck at a continuation record. This change hid the error message
about invalid page header, which would make it harder for users to
investigate what the actual issue was found in WAL.
To fix the issue, this commit makes XLogPageRead() report the error
message when invalid page header is found.
When not in standby mode, an invalid page header should cause recovery
to end, not retry reading the page, so XLogPageRead() doesn't need to
validate the page header for the retry. Instead, ReadPageInternal() should
be responsible for the validation in that case. Therefore this commit
changes XLogPageRead() so that if not in standby mode it doesn't validate
the page header for the retry.
This commit has been originally pushed as of 68601985e6 for 15 and
newer versions, but not to the older branches. A recent investigation
related to WAL replay failures has showed up that the lack of this patch
in 12~14 is an issue, as we want to be able to improve the WAL reader to
make a correct distinction between the end-of-wal and OOM cases when
validating record headers. REL_11_STABLE is left out as it will be

Revalidation of a plancache entry (after a cache invalidation event)
requires acquiring a snapshot. Normally that is harmless, but not
if the cached statement is one that needs to run without acquiring a
snapshot. We were already aware of that for TransactionStmts,
but for some reason hadn't extrapolated to the other statements that
PlannedStmtRequiresSnapshot() knows mustn't set a snapshot. This can
lead to unexpected failures of commands such as SET TRANSACTION
ISOLATION LEVEL. We can fix it in the same way, by excluding those
command types from revalidation.
However, we can do even better than that: there is no need to
revalidate for any statement type for which parse analysis, rewrite,
and plan steps do nothing interesting, which is nearly all utility
commands. To mechanize this, invent a parser function
stmt_requires_parse_analysis() that tells whether parse analysis does
anything beyond wrapping a CMD_UTILITY Query around the raw parse
tree. If that's what it does, then rewrite and plan will just
skip the Query, so that it is not possible for the same raw parse
tree to produce a different plan tree after cache invalidation.
stmt_requires_parse_analysis() is basically equivalent to the
existing function analyze_requires_snapshot(), except that for
obscure reasons that function omits ReturnStmt and CallStmt.
It is unclear whether those were oversights or intentional.
I have not been able to demonstrate a bug from not acquiring a
snapshot while analyzing these commands, but at best it seems mighty
fragile. It seems safer to acquire a snapshot for parse analysis of
these commands too, which allows making stmt_requires_parse_analysis
and analyze_requires_snapshot equivalent.
In passing this fixes a second bug, which is that ResetPlanCache
would exclude ReturnStmts and CallStmts from revalidation.
That's surely *not* safe, since they contain parsable expressions.

replacing a join with a scan, and by 2) modifying create_scan_plan() in

dubious wording changes made by commit f56651519.)
Per gripe from Ilya Nenashev. Back-patch to supported branches.
In HEAD and v16, also drop a NOTE about pre-8.2 behavior, which
is hopefully no longer of interest to anybody.

The "count" argument of SPI_exec() only limits execution when
the query is actually returning rows. This was not the case
before PG 9.0, so this example was correct when written; but
we missed updating it in commit 2ddc600f8. Extend the example
to show the behavior both with and without RETURNING.
While here, improve the commentary and markup for the rest
of the example.
David G. Johnston and Tom Lane, per report from Curt Kolovson.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

This has been missed in cb0cca1, noticed before buildfarm member koel
has been able to complain while poking at a different patch. Like the
other commit, backpatch all the way down to limit the odds of merge
conflicts.

A crash in the middle of a checkpoint with some two-phase state data
already flushed to disk by this checkpoint could cause a follow-up crash
recovery to recover twice the same transaction, once from what has been
found in pg_twophase/ at the beginning of recovery and a second time
when replaying its corresponding record.
This would lead to FATAL failures in the startup process during
recovery, where the same transaction would have a state recovered twice
instead of once:
LOG: recovering prepared transaction 731 from shared memory
LOG: recovering prepared transaction 731 from shared memory
FATAL: lock ExclusiveLock on object 731/0/0 is already held
This issue is fixed by skipping the addition of any 2PC state coming
from a record whose equivalent 2PC state file has already been loaded in
TwoPhaseState at the beginning of recovery by restoreTwoPhaseData(),
which is OK as long as the system has not reached a consistent state.
The timing to get a messed up recovery processing is very racy, and
would very unlikely happen. The thread that has reported the issue has
demonstrated the bug using injection points to force a PANIC in the
middle of a checkpoint.
Issue introduced in 728bd99, so backpatch all the way down.
