The internal commands in REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY are
correctly executed in SECURITY_RESTRICTED_OPERATION mode, except for
creating the temporary "diff" table, because you cannot create
temporary tables in SRO mode. But creating the temporary "diff" table
is a pretty complex CTAS command that selects from another temporary
table created earlier in the command. If you can cajole that CTAS
command to execute code defined by the table owner, the table owner
can run code with the privileges of the user running the REFRESH
command.
The proof-of-concept reported to the security team relied on CREATE
RULE to convert the internally-built temp table to a view. That's not
possible since commit b23cd185fd, and I was not able to find a
different way to turn the SELECT on the temp table into code
execution, so as far as I know this is only exploitable in v15 and
below. That's a fiddly assumption though, so apply this patch to
master and all stable versions.

This patch provides support for regular (non-replication) connections in
libpqrcv_connect(). This can be used to execute SQL statements on the
primary server without starting a walsender.
A new API libpqrcv_get_dbname_from_conninfo() is also added to extract the
database name from the given connection-info.
Note that this patch doesn't change any existing functionality but later
patches implementing the slot synchronization will use this functionality
to connect to the primary server to fetch required slot information.

These routines are used by the text and CSV formats to send an output
representation of a string, applying quotes if required. This is
similar to 95fb5b4902, reducing the number of "if" branches that need

While on it, this simplifies the signature of CopyAttributeOutCSV() as
it is possible to know that an attribute is alone on a line thanks to

ERROR: ResourceOwnerRemember called but array was full

This bug was introduced in the large ResourceOwner rewrite commit

the subsequent PinLocalBuffer() will succeed, but after the rewrite,
releasing an old resource doesn't guarantee that there is space for a

Here we adjust the partial path generation for parallel DISTINCT queries
to add Sort nodes on top of any unsorted partial distinct paths.
This increases the likelihood of the planner pushing a Sort below a Gather
Merge which enables the final phase of the parallel distinct to be
implemented using a Unique node in more cases.
Sorting the partial distinct paths is particularly useful when the
DISTINCT query has an ORDER BY and LIMIT clause as this can allow cheaper
plans by having the workers Hash Aggregate then Sort before feeding the
results into the Gather Merge. The non-parallel portion of the plan then
becomes very cheap as it leaves only Unique and Limit to do in the leader
process.

Restoring a base backup taken in the middle of CreateDirAndVersionFile()
or write_relmap_file() would lose the function's effects. The symptom
was absence of the database directory, PG_VERSION file, or
pg_filenode.map. If missing the directory, recovery would fail. Either
missing file would not fail recovery but would render the new database
unusable. Fix CreateDirAndVersionFile() with the transam/README "action
first and then write a WAL entry" strategy. That has a side benefit of
moving filesystem mutations out of a critical section, reducing the ways
to PANIC. Fix the write_relmap_file() call with a lock acquisition, so

The latest buildfarm failures show that after the insert, we don't
actually wait long enough for WAL summarization to catch up, apparently
because the on disk state gets updated before the in-memory state, and
so by checking the on disk state to see whether we're caught up and then
the in-memory state to see where exactly how far we've progressed, we
can, if unlucky, derive an older value of summarized_lsn, messing up
the rest of the test.

When building a MergeAppendPath which has child paths that are not
sorted correctly for the MergeAppend's sort order, we apply the cost of
sorting those paths to the MergeAppendPath costs.
Here we fix a bug where the number of tuples specified that needed to be
sorted was effectively pg_class.reltuples rather than the number of
expected row in the subpath. This effectively penalizes MergeAppend
plans any time any filter is present on the MergeAppend subpath as the
sort cost added is to sort all tuples in the table rather than just the
ones expected the path to return.
This did not affect UNION ALL type queries as the RelOptInfo tuples is
set from the subquery's path rows. It does affect MergeAppends uses for
inheritance and partitioned tables.
This is a long-standing bug introduced when MergeAppend was first added
in 11cad29c9. No backpatch as this could result in plan changes.

After calling smgropen(), it was not clear how long you could continue
to use the result, because various code paths including cache
invalidation could call smgrclose(), which freed the memory.
Guarantee that the object won't be destroyed until the end of the
current transaction, or in recovery, the commit/abort record that
destroys the underlying storage.
smgrclose() is now just an alias for smgrrelease(). It closes files
and forgets all state except the rlocator, but keeps the SMgrRelation
object valid.
A new smgrdestroy() function is used by rare places that know there
should be no other references to the SMgrRelation.
The short version:
* smgrclose() is now just an alias for smgrrelease(). It releases
resources, but doesn't destroy until EOX
* smgrdestroy() now frees memory, and should rarely be used.
Existing code should be unaffected, but it is now possible for code that
has an SMgrRelation object to use it repeatedly during a transaction as
long as the storage hasn't been physically dropped. Such code would
normally hold a lock on the relation.
This also replaces the "ownership" mechanism of SMgrRelations with a
pin counter. An SMgrRelation can now be "pinned", which prevents it
from being destroyed at end of transaction. There can be multiple pins
on the same SMgrRelation. In practice, the pin mechanism is only used
by the relcache, so there cannot be more than one pin on the same
SMgrRelation. Except with swap_relation_files XXX

This commit addresses a set of issues when changing token type mappings
in a text search configuration when using duplicated token names:
- ADD MAPPING would fail on insertion because of a constraint failure
after inserting the same mapping.
- ALTER MAPPING with an "overridden" configuration failed with "tuple
already updated by self" when the token mappings are removed.
- DROP MAPPING failed with "tuple already updated by self", like
previously, but in a different code path.
The code is refactored so the token names (with their numbers) are
handled as a List with unique members rather than an array with numbers,
ensuring that no duplicates mess up with the catalog inserts, updates
and deletes. The list is generated by getTokenTypes(), with the same
error handling as previously while duplicated tokens are discarded from
the list used to work on the catalogs.
Regression tests are expanded to cover much more ground for the cases
fixed by this commit, as there was no coverage for the code touched in
this commit. A bit more is done regarding the fact that a token name
not supported by a configuration's parser should result in an error even
if IF EXISTS is used in a DROP MAPPING clause. This is implied in the
code but there was no coverage for that, and it was very easy to miss.
These issues exist since at least their introduction in core with
140d4ebcb4, so backpatch all the way down.
