Back-patch to all supported versions.

In binary upgrade mode, we need to recreate and then drop dropped
columns so that all the columns get the right attribute number. This is
true for foreign tables as well as for native tables. For foreign
tables we have been getting the first part right but not the second,
leading to bogus columns in the upgraded database. Fix this all the way
back to 9.1, where foreign tables were introduced.

In replication, when we shutdown the master, walsender tries to send
all the outstanding WAL records to the standby, and then to exit. This
basically means that all the WAL records are fully synced between
two servers after the clean shutdown of the master. So, after
promoting the standby to new master, we can restart the stopped
master as new standby without the need for a fresh backup from
new master.

But there was one problem so far: though walsender tries to send all
the outstanding WAL records, it doesn't wait for them to be replicated
to the standby. Then, before receiving all the WAL records,
walreceiver can detect the closure of connection and exit. We cannot
guarantee that there is no missing WAL in the standby after clean
shutdown of the master. In this case, backup from new master is
required when restarting the stopped master as new standby.

This patch fixes this problem. It just changes walsender so that it
waits for all the outstanding WAL records to be replicated to the
standby before closing the replication connection.

Per discussion, this is a fix that needs to get backpatched rather than
new feature. So, back-patch to 9.1 where enough infrastructure for
this exists.

Patch by me, reviewed by Andres Freund.

In some cases with higher numbers of subtransactions
it was possible for us to incorrectly initialize
subtrans leading to complaints of missing pages.

Bug report by Sergey Konoplev
Analysis and fix by Andres Freund

More languages than SQL and PL/pgSQL actually support parameter names.

In Danish collations, there are letter combinations which sort
higher than 'Z'.  A test for values > 'WA' was picking up rows
where the value started with 'AA', causing the test to fail.

Backpatch to 9.2, where the failing test was added.

ALTER TABLE .. VALIDATE CONSTRAINT previously
gave incorrect details about lock levels and
therefore incomplete reasons to use the option.

Initial bug report and fix from Marko Tiikkaja

Back-patch to 9.1 where the directory archive was introduced.

SP-GiST's original scheme for avoiding deadlocks during concurrent index
insertions doesn't work, as per report from Hailong Li, and there isn't any
evident way to make it work completely.  We could possibly lock individual
inner tuples instead of their whole pages, but preliminary experimentation
suggests that the performance penalty would be huge.  Instead, if we fail
to get a buffer lock while descending the tree, just restart the tree
descent altogether.  We keep the old tuple positioning rules, though, in
hopes of reducing the number of cases where this can happen.

In most scenarios a portal without a ResourceOwner is dead and not subject
to any further execution, but a portal for a cursor WITH HOLD remains in
existence with no ResourceOwner after the creating transaction is over.
In this situation, if we attempt to "execute" the portal directly to fetch
data from it, we were setting CurrentResourceOwner to NULL, leading to a
segfault if the datatype output code did anything that required a resource
owner (such as trying to fetch system catalog entries that weren't already
cached).  The case appears to be impossible to provoke with stock libpq,
but psqlODBC at least is able to cause it when working with held cursors.

Simplest fix is to just skip the assignment to CurrentResourceOwner, so
that any resources used by the data output operations will be managed by
the transaction-level resource owner instead.  For consistency I changed
all the places that install a portal's resowner as current, even though
some of them are probably not reachable with a held cursor's portal.

Per report from Joshua Berry (with thanks to Hiroshi Inoue for developing
a self-contained test case).  Back-patch to all supported versions.

Patch by me, reviewed by Tatsuo Ishii.

We need to increment the refcount on the composite type's cached tuple
descriptor while we do lookups of its column types.  Otherwise a cache
flush could occur and release the tuple descriptor before we're done with
it.  This fails reliably with -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, but the odds of a
failure in a production build seem rather low (since the pfree'd descriptor
typically wouldn't get scribbled on immediately).  That may explain the
lack of any previous reports.  Buildfarm issue noted by Christian Ullrich.

Back-patch to 9.1 where the bogus code was added.

lo_read()/lo_write() in libpq to avoid confusion.

getSchemaData() must identify extension member objects and mark them
as not to be dumped. This must happen after reading all objects that can be
direct members of extensions, but before we begin to process table subsidiary
objects. Both rules and event triggers were wrong in this regard.

Backport rules portion of patch to 9.1 -- event triggers do not exist prior to 9.3.
Suggested fix by Tom Lane, initial complaint and patch by me.

When the existing code here was written, it made sense to special-case
RowExprs because that was the only way that we could handle row comparisons
at all.  Now that we have record_eq() and arrays of composites, the generic
logic for "scalar" types will in fact work on RowExprs too, so there's no
reason to throw error for combinations of RowExprs and other ways of
forming composite values, nor to ignore the possibility of using a
ScalarArrayOpExpr.  But keep using the old logic when comparing two
RowExprs, for consistency with the main transformAExprOp() logic.  (This
allows some cases with not-quite-identical rowtypes to succeed, so we might
get push-back if we removed it.)  Per bug #8198 from Rafal Rzepecki.

Back-patch to all supported branches, since this works fine as far back as
8.4.

Per discussion, this restriction isn't needed for any real security reason,
and it seems to confuse people more often than it helps them.  It could
also result in some database states being unrestorable.  So just drop it.

Back-patch to 9.0, where ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES was introduced.

AllocateFile(), AllocateDir(), and some sister routines share a small array
for remembering requests, so that the files can be closed on transaction
failure.  Previously that array had a fixed size, MAX_ALLOCATED_DESCS (32).
While historically that had seemed sufficient, Steve Toutant pointed out
that this meant you couldn't scan more than 32 file_fdw foreign tables in
one query, because file_fdw depends on the COPY code which uses
AllocateFile().  There are probably other cases, or will be in the future,
where this nonconfigurable limit impedes users.

We can't completely remove any such limit, at least not without a lot of
work, since each such request requires a kernel file descriptor and most
platforms limit the number we can have.  (In principle we could
"virtualize" these descriptors, as fd.c already does for the main VFD pool,
but not without an additional layer of overhead and a lot of notational
impact on the calling code.)  But we can at least let the array size be
configurable.  Hence, change the code to allow up to max_safe_fds/2
allocated file requests.  On modern platforms this should allow several
hundred concurrent file_fdw scans, or more if one increases the value of
max_files_per_process.  To go much further than that, we'd need to do some
more work on the data structure, since the current code for closing
requests has potentially O(N^2) runtime; but it should still be all right
for request counts in this range.

Back-patch to 9.1 where contrib/file_fdw was introduced.

Long-standing code has called tolower() on identifier character bytes
with the high bit set. This is clearly an error and produces junk output
when the encoding is multi-byte. This patch therefore restricts this
activity to cases where there is a character with the high bit set AND
the encoding is single-byte.

There have been numerous gripes about this, most recently from Martin
Schäfer.

Backpatch to all live releases.

It claimed the value was always zero; it is really always -1.

Andres' fix for XLOG_HEAP2_VISIBLE on unitialized pages requires
this.

Backpatch to 9.2.

The planner is aware that it mustn't push down upper-level quals into
subqueries if the quals reference subquery output columns that contain
set-returning functions or volatile functions, or are non-DISTINCT outputs
of a DISTINCT ON subquery.  However, it missed making this check when
there were one or more levels of UNION or INTERSECT above the dangerous
expression.  This could lead to "set-valued function called in context that
cannot accept a set" errors, as seen in bug #8213 from Eric Soroos, or to
silently wrong answers in the other cases.

To fix, refactor the checks so that we make the column-is-unsafe checks
during subquery_is_pushdown_safe(), which already has to recursively
inspect all arms of a set-operation tree.  This makes
qual_is_pushdown_safe() considerably simpler, at the cost that we will
spend some cycles checking output columns that possibly aren't referenced
in any upper qual.  But the cases where this code gets executed at all
are already nontrivial queries, so it's unlikely anybody will notice any
slowdown of planning.

This has been broken since commit 05f916e6,
which makes the bug over ten years old.  A bit surprising nobody noticed it
before now.

In commit 2c92edad, I broke "EXPLAIN
(ANALYZE)" syntax, because I mistakenly thought that ANALYZE/ANALYSE were
only partially reserved and thus would be included in NonReservedWord;
but actually they're fully reserved so they still need to be called out
here.

A nicer solution would be to demote these words to type_func_name_keyword
status (they can't be less than that because of "VACUUM [ANALYZE] ColId").
While that works fine so far as the core grammar is concerned, it breaks
ECPG's grammar for reasons I don't have time to isolate at the moment.
So do this for the time being.

Per report from Kevin Grittner.  Back-patch to 9.0, like the previous
commit.

The new message (and SQLSTATE) matches the corresponding error cases in
namespace.c.

This was thought to be a "can't happen" case when extension.c was written,
so we didn't think hard about how to report it.  But it definitely can
happen in 9.2 and later, since we no longer require search_path to contain
any valid schema names.  It's probably also possible in 9.1 if search_path
came from a noninteractive source.  So, back-patch to all releases
containing this code.

Per report from Sean Chittenden, though this isn't exactly his patch.

Use the same gcc atomic functions as we do on newer ARM chips.
(Basically this is a copy and paste of the __arm__ code block,
but omitting the SWPB option since that definitely won't work.)

Back-patch to 9.2.  The patch would work further back, but we'd also
need to update config.guess/config.sub in older branches to make them
build out-of-the-box, and there hasn't been demand for it.

The array allocated by GetRunningTransactionLocks() needs to be pfree'd
when we're done with it.  Otherwise we leak some memory during each
checkpoint, if wal_level = hot_standby.  This manifests as memory bloat
in the checkpointer process, or in bgwriter in versions before we made
the checkpointer separate.

Reported and fixed by Naoya Anzai.  Back-patch to 9.0 where the issue
was introduced.

In passing, improve comments for GetRunningTransactionLocks(), and add
an Assert that we didn't overrun the palloc'd array.

"eval q{foo}" used to complain that the error was on line 2 of the eval'd
string, because eval internally tacked on "\n;" so that the end of the
erroneous command was indeed on line 2.  But as of Perl 5.18 it more
sanely says that the error is on line 1.  To avoid Perl-version-dependent
regression test results, use "eval q{foo;}" instead in the two places
where this matters.  Per buildfarm.

Since people might try to use newer Perl versions with older PG releases,
back-patch as far as 9.0 where these test cases were added.

This change makes type_func_name_keywords less reserved than they were
before, by allowing them for role names, language names, EXPLAIN and COPY
options, and SET values for GUCs; which are all places where few if any
actual keywords could appear instead, so no new ambiguities are introduced.

The main driver for this change is to allow "COPY ... (FORMAT BINARY)"
to work without quoting the word "binary".  That is an inconsistency that
has been complained of repeatedly over the years (at least by Pavel Golub,
Kurt Lidl, and Simon Riggs); but we hadn't thought of any non-ugly solution
until now.

Back-patch to 9.0 where the COPY (FORMAT BINARY) syntax was introduced.

Tomas Vondra

The documentation for ALTER TYPE .. RENAME claimed to support a
RESTRICT/CASCADE option at the 'type' level, which wasn't implemented
and doesn't make a whole lot of sense to begin with.  What is supported,
and previously undocumented, is

ALTER TYPE .. RENAME ATTRIBUTE .. RESTRICT/CASCADE.

I've updated the documentation and back-patched this to 9.1 where it was
first introduced.

When COPY uses the multi-insert method to insert a batch of tuples into the
heap at a time, incorrect line number was printed if something went wrong in
inserting the index tuples (primary key failure, for exampl), or processing
after row triggers.

Fixes bug #8173 reported by Lloyd Albin. Backpatch to 9.2, where the multi-
insert code was added.

PathNameOpenFile failed to ensure that the correct value of errno was
returned to its caller after a failure (because it incorrectly supposed
that free() can never change errno).  In some cases this would result
in a user-visible failure because an expected ENOENT errno was replaced
with something else.  Bogus EINVAL failures have been observed on OS X,
for example.

There were also a couple of places that could mangle an important value
of errno if FDDEBUG was defined.  While the usefulness of that debug
support is highly debatable, we might as well make it safe to use,
so add errno save/restore logic to the DO_DB macro.

Per bug #8167 from Nelson Minar, diagnosed by RhodiumToad.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

If OID wraparound should occur while in standalone mode (unlikely but
possible), we want to advance the counter to FirstNormalObjectId not
FirstBootstrapObjectId.  Otherwise, user objects might be created with OIDs
in the system-reserved range.  That isn't immediately harmful but it poses
a risk of conflicts during future pg_upgrade operations.

Noted by Andres Freund.  Back-patch to all supported branches, since all of
them are supported sources for pg_upgrade operations.

The 9.2 patch that added argument name support in SQL-language functions
missed updating a parenthetical comment about that in the CREATE FUNCTION
reference page.  Noted by Erwin Brandstetter.

This case doesn't normally happen, because the planner usually clamps
all row estimates to at least one row; but I found that it can arise
when dealing with relations excluded by constraints.  Without a defense,
estimate_num_groups() can return zero, which leads to divisions by zero
inside the planner as well as assertion failures in the executor.

An alternative fix would be to change set_dummy_rel_pathlist() to make
the size estimate for a dummy relation 1 row instead of 0, but that seemed
pretty ugly; and probably someday we'll want to drop the convention that
the minimum rowcount estimate is 1 row.

Back-patch to 8.4, as the problem can be demonstrated that far back.
