In btree_gin and citext, avoid some not-particularly-interesting dependencies on the sorting of 'aa'. In tsearch2, use COLLATE "C" to remove an uninteresting dependency on locale sort order (and thereby allow removal of a variant expected-file). Also, in citext, avoid assuming that lower('I') = 'i'. This isn't relevant to Danish but it does fail in Turkish.

To ensure that "make installcheck" can be used safely against an existing installation, we need to be careful about what global object names (database, role, and tablespace names) we use; otherwise we might accidentally clobber important objects. There's been a weak consensus that test databases should have names including "regression", and that test role names should start with "regress_", but we didn't have any particular rule about tablespace names; and neither of the other rules was followed with any consistency either. This commit moves us a long way towards having a hard-and-fast rule that regression test databases must have names including "regression", and that test role and tablespace names must start with "regress_". It's not completely there because I did not touch some test cases in rolenames.sql that test creation of special role names like "session_user". That will require some rethinking of exactly what we want to test, whereas the intent of this patch is just to hit all the cases in which the needed renamings are cosmetic. There is no enforcement mechanism in this patch either, but if we don't add one we can expect that the tests will soon be violating the convention again. Again, that's not such a cosmetic change and it will require discussion. (But I did use a quick-hack enforcement patch to find these cases.) Discussion: <16638.1468620817@sss.pgh.pa.us>

The old code used SEQ_MINVALUE to get the smallest int64 value. This was done as a convenience to avoid having to deal with INT64_IS_BUSTED, but that is obsolete now. Also, it is incorrect because the smallest int64 value is actually SEQ_MINVALUE-1. Fix by using PG_INT64_MIN.

We must not push down a foreign join when the foreign tables involved should be accessed under different user mappings. Previously we tried to enforce that rule literally during planning, but that meant that the resulting plans were dependent on the current contents of the pg_user_mapping catalog, and we had to blow away all cached plans containing any remote join when anything at all changed in pg_user_mapping. This could have been improved somewhat, but the fact that a syscache inval callback has very limited info about what changed made it hard to do better within that design. Instead, let's change the planner to not consider user mappings per se, but to allow a foreign join if both RTEs have the same checkAsUser value. If they do, then they necessarily will use the same user mapping at runtime, and we don't need to know specifically which one that is. Post-plan-time changes in pg_user_mapping no longer require any plan invalidation. This rule does give up some optimization ability, to wit where two foreign table references come from views with different owners or one's from a view and one's directly in the query, but nonetheless the same user mapping would have applied. We'll sacrifice the first case, but to not regress more than we have to in the second case, allow a foreign join involving both zero and nonzero checkAsUser values if the nonzero one is the same as the prevailing effective userID. In that case, mark the plan as only runnable by that userID. The plancache code already had a notion of plans being userID-specific, in order to support RLS. It was a little confused though, in particular lacking clarity of thought as to whether it was the rewritten query or just the finished plan that's dependent on the userID. Rearrange that code so that it's clearer what depends on which, and so that the same logic applies to both RLS-injected role dependency and foreign-join-injected role dependency. Note that this patch doesn't remove the other issue mentioned in the original complaint, which is that while we'll reliably stop using a foreign join if it's disallowed in a new context, we might fail to start using a foreign join if it's now allowed, but we previously created a generic cached plan that didn't use one. It was agreed that the chance of winning that way was not high enough to justify the much larger number of plan invalidations that would have to occur if we tried to cause it to happen. In passing, clean up randomly-varying spelling of EXPLAIN commands in postgres_fdw.sql, and fix a COSTS ON example that had been allowed to leak into the committed tests. This reverts most of commits fbe5a3fb and 5d4171d1, which were the previous attempt at ensuring we wouldn't push down foreign joins that span permissions contexts.

After pg_upgrade, it is possible that some tuples' Xmax have multixacts corresponding to the old installation; such multixacts cannot have running members anymore. In many code sites we already know not to read them and clobber them silently, but at least when VACUUM tries to freeze a multixact or determine whether one needs freezing, there's an attempt to resolve it to its member transactions by calling GetMultiXactIdMembers, and if the multixact value is "in the future" with regards to the current valid multixact range, an error like this is raised: ERROR: MultiXactId 123 has not been created yet -- apparent wraparound and vacuuming fails. Per discussion with Andrew Gierth, it is completely bogus to try to resolve multixacts coming from before a pg_upgrade, regardless of where they stand with regards to the current valid multixact range. It's possible to get from under this problem by doing SELECT FOR UPDATE of the problem tuples, but if tables are large, this is slow and tedious, so a more thorough solution is desirable. To fix, we realize that multixacts in xmax created in 9.2 and previous have a specific bit pattern that is never used in 9.3 and later (we already knew this, per comments and infomask tests sprinkled in various places, but we weren't leveraging this knowledge appropriately). Whenever the infomask of the tuple matches that bit pattern, we just ignore the multixact completely as if Xmax wasn't set; or, in the case of tuple freezing, we act as if an unwanted value is set and clobber it without decoding. This guarantees that no errors will be raised, and that the values will be progressively removed until all tables are clean. Most callers of GetMultiXactIdMembers are patched to recognize directly that the value is a removable "empty" multixact and avoid calling GetMultiXactIdMembers altogether. To avoid changing the signature of GetMultiXactIdMembers() in back branches, we keep the "allow_old" boolean flag but rename it to "from_pgupgrade"; if the flag is true, we always return an empty set instead of looking up the multixact. (I suppose we could remove the argument in the master branch, but I chose not to do so in this commit). This was broken all along, but the error-facing message appeared first because of commit 8e9a16ab and was partially fixed in a25c2b7c. This fix, backpatched all the way back to 9.3, goes approximately in the same direction as a25c2b7c but should cover all cases. Bug analysis by Andrew Gierth and Álvaro Herrera.

There was some very strange code here, dating to commit b525bf77, that purported to work around an ancient gcc bug by forcing a float4 comparison to be done as int instead. Commit 5871b884 broke that when it changed one side of the comparison to "double" but left the comparison code alone. Commit f576b17c doubled down on the weirdness by introducing a "volatile" marker, which had nothing to do with the actual problem. Guess that the gcc bug, even if it's still present in the wild, was triggered by comparison of float4's and can be avoided if we store the result of cnt_sml() into a double before comparing to the double "nlimit". This will at least work correctly on non-broken compilers, and it's way more readable. Per bug #14202 from Greg Navis. Add a regression test based on his example.

As shown by buildfarm reports, dblink_build_sql_insert and dblink_build_sql_update are *not* parallel safe, because they may attempt to access temporary tables of the local session. Although dblink_build_sql_delete doesn't actually touch the contents of the referenced table, it seems consistent and prudent to mark it PARALLEL RESTRICTED too.

Almost all functions provided by this extension are PARALLEL RESTRICTED. Mostly, that's because the leader's TCP connections won't be shared with the workers, but in some cases like dblink_get_pkey it's because they obtain locks which might be released early if taken within a parallel worker. dblink_fdw_validator probably can't be used in a query anyway, but there would be no problem from the point of view of parallel query if it were, so it's PARALLEL SAFE.

Commit 749a787c bumped the extension version on all of these extensions already, and we haven't had a release since then, so we can make further changes without bumping the extension version again. Take this opportunity to mark all of the functions exported by these modules PARALLEL SAFE -- except for pg_trgm's set_limit(). Mark that one PARALLEL RESTRICTED, because it makes a persistent change to a GUC value. Note that some of the markings added by this commit don't have any effect; for example, gseg_picksplit() isn't likely to be mentioned explicitly in a query and therefore it's parallel-safety marking will never be consulted. But this commit just marks everything for consistency: if it were somehow used in a query, that would be fine as far as parallel query is concerned, since it does not consult any backend-private state, attempt to write data, etc. Andreas Karlsson, with a few revisions by me.

As discovered by Andreas Seltenreich via sqlsmith, it's possible for a remote join to need to generate a target list which contains a PlaceHolderVar which would need to be evaluated on the remote server. This happens when we try to push down a join tree which contains outer joins and the nullable side of the join contains a subquery which evauates some expression which can go to NULL above the level of the join. Since the deparsing logic can't build a remote query that involves subqueries, it fails while trying to produce an SQL query that can be sent to the remote side. Detect such cases and don't try to push down the join at all. It's actually fine to push down the join if the PlaceHolderVar needs to be evaluated at the current join level. This patch makes a small change to build_tlist_to_deparse so that this case will work. Amit Langote, Ashutosh Bapat, and me.

Extension scripts should never use CREATE OR REPLACE for initial object creation. If there is a collision with a pre-existing (probably user-created) object, we want extension installation to fail, not silently overwrite the user's object. Bloom and sslinfo both violated this precept. Also fix a number of scripts that had no standard header (the file name comment and the \echo...\quit guard). Probably the \echo...\quit hack is less important now than it was in 9.1 days, but that doesn't mean that individual extensions get to choose whether to use it or not. And fix a couple of evident copy-and-pasteos in file name comments. No need for back-patch: the REPLACE bugs are both new in 9.6, and the rest of this is pretty much cosmetic.

Andreas Seltenreich reports that it is possible for a PlaceHolderVar to creep into this tlist, and I fear that even after that's fixed we might have other, similar bugs in this area either now or in the future. There's a lot of action-at-a-distance here, because the validity of this assertion depends on core planner behavior; so, let's use elog() to make sure we catch this even in non-assert builds, rather than just crashing.

In commits 9ff60273 and dbe23289 I (tgl) fixed the signatures of a bunch of contrib's GIN and GIST support functions so that they would pass validation by the recently-added amvalidate functions. The backend does not actually consult or check those signatures otherwise, so I figured this was basically cosmetic and did not require an extension version bump. However, Alexander Korotkov pointed out that that would leave us in a pretty messy situation if we ever wanted to redefine those functions later, because there wouldn't be a unique way to name them. Since we're going to be bumping these extensions' versions anyway for parallel-query cleanups, let's take care of this now. Andreas Karlsson, adjusted for more search-path-safety by me
