It's possible that a subplan below a Memoize node contains a parameter
from above the Memoize node. If this parameter changes then cache entries
may become out-dated due to the new parameter value.
Previously Memoize was mistakenly not aware of this. We fix this here by
flushing the cache whenever a parameter that's not part of the cache
key changes.

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, dumpTableData_insert failed to account for the 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
did not have this bug, likely explaining why it wasn't noticed sooner.
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
efficient as we can; it doesn't add much complexity.

This doesn't belong next to very high level discussion of the tasks that
lazy_scan_heap performs. There is already a similar, longer comment
block at the top of vacuumlazy.c that mentions lazy_scan_heap directly.
Previously it was impossible to terminate these programs via control-C
while they were prompting for a password. We can fix that trivially
for their initial password prompts, by moving setup of the SIGINT
handler from just before to just after their initial GetConnection()
calls.
This fix doesn't permit escaping out of later re-prompts, but those
should be exceedingly rare, since the user's password or the server's
authentication setup would have to have changed meanwhile. We
considered applying a fix similar to commit 46d665bc2, but that

Oversights in commit 405f32fc4.
Also, add a tip (discovered the hard way) about getting Test::More
0.98 to pass its regression tests on recent Linux platforms.
Commit ac9099fc1 rearranged the logic in spgGetCache() that determines
the index's attType (nominal input data type) and leafType (actual
type stored in leaf index tuples). Turns out this broke things for
the case where (a) the actual input data type is different from the
nominal type, (b) the opclass's config function leaves leafType
defaulted, and (c) the opclass has no "compress" function. (b) caused
us to assign the actual input data type as leafType, and then since
that's not attType, we complained that a "compress" function is
required. For non-polymorphic opclasses, condition (a) arises in
binary-compatible cases, such as using SP-GiST text_ops for a varchar
column, or using any opclass on a domain over its nominal input type.
To fix, use attType for leafType when the index's declared column type
is different from but binary-compatible with attType. Do this only in
the defaulted-leafType case, to avoid overriding any explicit
selection made by the opclass.

We use "clang" to compile bitcode files for LLVM inlining. That might
be different from the build's main C compiler, so it needs its own set
of compiler flags. To simplify configure, we don't bother adding any
-W switches to that flag set; there's little need since the main build
will show us any warnings. However, if we don't want to see unwanted
warnings, we still have to add any -Wno-warning switches we'd normally
use with clang.
This escaped notice before commit 9ff47ea41, which tried to add
-Wno-compound-token-split-by-macro; buildfarm animals using mismatched
CC and CLANG still showed those warnings. I'm not sure why we never

This commit adds to the main regression test suite a table with all
the in-core data types (some exceptions apply). This table is not
dropped, so as pg_upgrade would be able to check the binary
compatibility of the types tracked in the table. If a new type is added
in core, this part of the tests would need a refresh but the tests are
designed to fail if that were to happen.
As this is useful for upgrades and that these rely on the objects
created in the regression test suite of the old version upgraded from,
a backpatch down to 12 is done, which is the last point where a binary
incompatible change has been done (7c15cef). This will hopefully be
enough to find out if something gets broken during the development of a
new version of Postgres, so as it is possible to take actions in
pg_upgrade itself in this case (like 0ccfc28 for sql_identifier).
An area that is not covered yet is related to external modules, which
may create their own types. The testing infrastructure of pg_upgrade is
not integrated yet with the external modules stored in core
(src/test/modules/ or contrib/, all use the same database name for their
tests so there would be an overlap). This could be improved in the
future.

Up to now, you couldn't escape out of psql's \password command

modify the functions provided by pg_get_line.c; but we don't
want to mess with psql's SIGINT handler setup, so provide an
API that lets that handler cause the cancel to occur.
This relies on the assumption that we won't do any major harm by

we've long had the same assumption in the main input loop, and few

This fills in some gaps in planner support for starts_with() and
the equivalent ^@ operator:
* A condition such as "textcol ^@ constant" can now use a regular
btree index, not only an SP-GiST index, so long as the index's
collation is C. (This works just like "textcol LIKE 'foo%'".)
* "starts_with(textcol, constant)" can be optimized the same as
"textcol ^@ constant".
* Fixed-prefix LIKE and regex patterns are now more like starts_with()
in another way: if you apply one to an SPGiST-indexed column, you'll
get an index condition using ^@ rather than two index conditions with
>= and <.

The error handling here was a mess, as a result of a fundamentally
bad design (relying on errno to keep its value much longer than is
safe to assume) as well as a lot of just plain sloppiness, both as
to noticing errors at all and as to reporting the correct errno.
Moreover, the recent addition of LZ4 compression broke things
completely, because liblz4 doesn't use errno to report errors.
To improve matters, keep the error state in the DirectoryMethodData or
TarMethodData struct, and add a string field so we can handle cases
that don't set errno. (The tar methods already had a version of this,
but it can be done more efficiently since all these cases use a
constant error string.) Make the dir and tar methods handle errors
in basically identical ways, which they didn't before.
This requires copying errno into the state struct in a lot of places,
which is a bit tedious, but it has the virtue that we can get rid of
ad-hoc code to save and restore errno in a number of places ... not
to mention that it fixes other places that should've saved/restored
errno but neglected to.
In passing, fix some pointlessly static buffers to be ordinary
local variables.
There remains an issue about exactly how to handle errors from
fsync(), but that seems like material for its own patch.
While the LZ4 problems are new, all the rest of this is fixes for
old bugs, so backpatch to v10 where walmethods.c was introduced.

Coverity complained that applying get_gz_error after a failed gzclose,
as we did in one place in pg_basebackup, is unsafe. I think it's
right: it's entirely likely that the call is touching freed memory.
Change that to inspect errno, as we do for other gzclose calls.
Also, be careful to initialize errno to zero immediately before any
gzclose() call where we care about the error status. (There are
some calls where we don't, because we already failed at some previous
step.) This ensures that we don't get a misleadingly irrelevant
error code if gzclose() fails in a way that doesn't set errno.
We could work harder at that, but it looks to me like all such cases
are basically can't-happen if we're not misusing zlib, so it's
not worth the extra notational cruft that would be required.
Also, fix several places that simply failed to check for close-time
errors at all, mostly at some remove from the close or gzclose itself;
and one place that did check but didn't bother to report the errno.
Back-patch to v12. These mistakes are older than that, but between
the frontend logging API changes that happened in v12 and the fact
that frontend code can't rely on %m before that, the patch would need

If a SQL-standard function body contains an INSERT ... SELECT statement,
any function parameters referenced within the SELECT were always printed
in $N style, rather than using the parameter name if any. While not
strictly incorrect, this wasn't the intention, and it's inconsistent
with the way that such parameters would be printed in any other kind
of statement.
The cause is that the recursion to get_query_def from
get_insert_query_def neglected to pass down the context->namespaces
list, passing constant NIL instead. This is a very ancient oversight,
but AFAICT it had no visible consequences before commit e717a9a18
added an outermost namespace with function parameters. We don't allow
INSERT ... SELECT as a sub-query, except in a top-level WITH clause,
where it couldn't contain any outer references that might need to access
upper namespaces. So although that's arguably a bug, I don't see any
point in changing it before v14.
In passing, harden the code added to get_parameter by e717a9a18 so that
it won't crash if a PARAM_EXTERN Param appears in an unexpected place.

When deparsing an expression of the form "remote_var OP constant",
we'd normally apply a cast to the constant to make sure that the
remote parser thinks it's of the same type we do. However, doing
so is often not necessary, and it causes problems if the user has
intentionally declared the local column as being of a different
type than the remote column. A plausible use-case for that is
using text to represent a type that's an enum on the remote side.
A comparison on such a column will get shipped as "var = 'foo'::text",
which blows up on the remote side because there's no enum = text
operator. But if we simply leave off the explicit cast, the
comparison will do exactly what the user wants.
It's possible to do this without major risk of semantic problems, by
relying on the longstanding parser heuristic that "if one operand of
an operator is of type unknown, while the other one has a known type,
assume that the unknown operand is also of that type". Hence, this
patch leaves off the cast only if (a) the operator inputs have the same
type locally; (b) the constant will print as a string literal or NULL,
both of which are initially taken as type unknown; and (c) the non-Const
input is a plain foreign Var. Rule (c) guarantees that the remote
parser will know the type of the non-Const input; moreover, it means
that if this cast-omission does cause any semantic surprises, that can
only happen in cases where the local column has a different type than
the remote column. That wasn't guaranteed to work anyway, and this
patch should represent a net usability gain for such cases.
One point that I (tgl) remain slightly uncomfortable with is that we
will ignore an implicit RelabelType when deciding if the non-Const input
is a plain Var. That makes it a little squishy to argue that the remote
should resolve the Const as being of the same type as its Var, because
then our Const is not the same type as our Var. However, if we don't do
that, then this hack won't work as desired if the user chooses to use
varchar rather than text to represent some remote column. That seems
useful, so do it like this for now. We might have to give up the
RelabelType-ignoring bit if any problems surface.

It is up to the heap_page_prune() caller to decide what to do about
updating the FSM for a page following pruning. Update old comments that
address what we might want to do as if it was the responsibility of
heap_page_prune() itself. heap_page_prune() doesn't have enough
high-level context to make a sensible choice.
