Failure to do this can cause AFTER ROW triggers or RETURNING expressions

On reflection, the submitted patch didn't really work to prevent the
request size from exceeding MaxAllocSize, because of the fact that we'd
happily round nbuckets up to the next power of 2 after we'd limited it to
max_pointers. The simplest way to enforce the limit correctly is to
round max_pointers down to a power of 2 when it isn't one already.
(Note that the constraint to INT_MAX / 2, if it were doing anything useful
at all, is properly applied after that.)

Limit the size of the hashtable pointer array to not more than
MaxAllocSize. We've seen reports of failures due to this in HEAD/9.5,
and it seems possible in older branches as well. The change in
NTUP_PER_BUCKET in 9.5 may have made the problem more likely, but
surely it didn't introduce it.

For no obvious reason, spi_printtup() was coded to enlarge the tuple
pointer table by just 256 slots at a time, rather than doubling the size at
each reallocation, as is our usual habit. For very large SPI results, this
makes for O(N^2) time spent in repalloc(), which of course soon comes to
dominate the runtime. Use the standard doubling approach instead.
This is a longstanding performance bug, so back-patch to all active
branches.

Although I think on all modern machines floating division by zero
results in Infinity not SIGFPE, we still don't want infinities
running around in the planner's costing estimates; too much risk
of that leading to insane behavior.
grouping_planner() failed to consider the possibility that final_rel
might be known dummy and hence have zero rowcount. (I wonder if it
would be better to set a rows estimate of 1 for dummy relations?
But at least in the back branches, changing this convention seems
like a bad idea, so I'll leave that for another day.)
Make certain that get_variable_numdistinct() produces a nonzero result.
The case that can be shown to be broken is with stadistinct < 0.0 and
small ntuples; we did not prevent the result from rounding to zero.
For good luck I applied clamp_row_est() to all the nonconstant return
values.
In ExecChooseHashTableSize(), Assert that we compute positive nbuckets
and nbatch. I know of no reason to think this isn't the case, but it
seems like a good safety check.

ExecOpenScanRelation assumed that any relation listed in the ExecRowMark
list has been locked by InitPlan; but this is not true if the rel's
markType is ROW_MARK_COPY, which is possible if it's a foreign table.
In most (possibly all) cases, failure to acquire a lock here isn't really
problematic because the parser, planner, or plancache would have taken the
appropriate lock already. In principle though it might leave us vulnerable
to working with a relation that we hold no lock on, and in any case if the
executor isn't depending on previously-taken locks otherwise then it should
not do so for ROW_MARK_COPY relations.
Noted by Etsuro Fujita. Back-patch to all active versions, since the
inconsistency has been there a long time. (It's almost certainly
irrelevant in 9.0, since that predates foreign tables, but the code's
still wrong on its own terms.)

The ROW_MARK_COPY path in EvalPlanQualFetchRowMarks() was just setting
tableoid to InvalidOid, I think on the assumption that the referenced
RTE must be a subquery or other case without a meaningful OID. However,
foreign tables also use this code path, and they do have meaningful
table OIDs; so failure to set the tuple field can lead to user-visible
misbehavior. Fix that by fetching the appropriate OID from the range
table.
There's still an issue about whether CTID can ever have a meaningful
value in this case; at least with postgres_fdw foreign tables, it does.
But that is a different problem that seems to require a significantly
different patch --- it's debatable whether postgres_fdw really wants to
use this code path at all.
Simplified version of a patch by Etsuro Fujita, who also noted the
problem to begin with. The issue can be demonstrated in all versions
having FDWs, so back-patch to 9.1.

In commit bf7ca15875988a88e97302e012d7c4808bef3ea9 I introduced an
assumption that an RTE referenced by a whole-row Var must have a valid eref
field. This is false for RTEs constructed by DoCopy, and there are other
places taking similar shortcuts. Perhaps we should make all those places
go through addRangeTableEntryForRelation or its siblings instead of having
ad-hoc logic, but the most reliable fix seems to be to make the new code in
ExecEvalWholeRowVar cope if there's no eref. We can reasonably assume that
there's no need to insert column aliases if no aliases were provided.
Add a regression test case covering this, and also verifying that a sane
column name is in fact available in this situation.
Although the known case only crashes in 9.4 and HEAD, it seems prudent to
back-patch the code change to 9.2, since all the ingredients for a similar
failure exist in the variant patch applied to 9.3 and 9.2.

If an insertion or update had to wait for another transaction to finish,
because there was another insertion with conflicting key in progress,
we would pass a just-free'd item pointer to XactLockTableWait().
All calls to XactLockTableWait() and MultiXactIdWait() had similar issues.
Some passed a pointer to a buffer in the buffer cache, after already
releasing the lock. The call in EvalPlanQualFetch had already released the
pin too. All but the call in execUtils.c would merely lead to reporting a
bogus ctid, however (or an assertion failure, if enabled).
All the callers that passed HeapTuple->t_data->t_ctid were slightly bogus
anyway: if the tuple was updated (again) in the same transaction, its ctid
field would point to the next tuple in the chain, not the tuple itself.
Backpatch to 9.4, where the 'ctid' argument to XactLockTableWait was added
(in commit f88d4cfc)

While building error messages to return to the user,
BuildIndexValueDescription, ExecBuildSlotValueDescription and
ri_ReportViolation would happily include the entire key or entire row in
the result returned to the user, even if the user didn't have access to
view all of the columns being included.
Instead, include only those columns which the user is providing or which
the user has select rights on. If the user does not have any rights
to view the table or any of the columns involved then no detail is
provided and a NULL value is returned from BuildIndexValueDescription
and ExecBuildSlotValueDescription. Note that, for key cases, the user
must have access to all of the columns for the key to be shown; a
partial key will not be returned.
Back-patch all the way, as column-level privileges are now in all
supported versions.
This has been assigned CVE-2014-8161, but since the issue and the patch
have already been publicized on pgsql-hackers, there's no point in trying
to hide this commit.

Up to now, the "child" executor state trees generated for EvalPlanQual
rechecks have simply shared the ResultRelInfo arrays used for the original
execution tree. However, this leads to dangling-pointer problems, because
ExecInitModifyTable() is all too willing to scribble on some fields of the
ResultRelInfo(s) even when it's being run in one of those child trees.
This trashes those fields from the perspective of the parent tree, because
even if the generated subtree is logically identical to what was in use in
the parent, it's in a memory context that will go away when we're done
with the child state tree.
We do however want to share information in the direction from the parent
down to the children; in particular, fields such as es_instrument *must*
be shared or we'll lose the stats arising from execution of the children.
So the simplest fix is to make a copy of the parent's ResultRelInfo array,
but not copy any fields back at end of child execution.
Per report from Manuel Kniep. The added isolation test is based on his
example. In an unpatched memory-clobber-enabled build it will reliably
fail with "ctid is NULL" errors in all branches back to 9.1, as a
consequence of junkfilter->jf_junkAttNo being overwritten with $7f7f.
This test cannot be run as-is before that for lack of WITH syntax; but
I have no doubt that some variant of this problem can arise in older
branches, so apply the code change all the way back.

In READ COMMITTED mode, if a SELECT FOR UPDATE discovers it has to redo
WHERE-clause checking on rows that have been updated since the SELECT's
snapshot, it invokes EvalPlanQual processing to do that. If this first
occurs within a non-first child table of an inheritance tree, the previous
coding could accidentally re-return a matching row from an earlier,
already-scanned child table. (And, to add insult to injury, I think this
could make it miss returning a row that should have been returned, if the
updated row that this happens on should still have passed the WHERE qual.)
Per report from Kyotaro Horiguchi; the added isolation test is based on his
test case.
This has been broken for quite awhile, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

This only happens if a client issues a Parse message with an empty query
string, which is a bit odd; but since it is explicitly called out as legal
by our FE/BE protocol spec, we'd probably better continue to allow it.
Fix by adding tests everywhere that the raw_parse_tree field is passed to
functions that don't or shouldn't accept NULL. Also make it clear in the
relevant comments that NULL is an expected case.
This reverts commits a73c9dbab0165b3395dfe8a44a7dfd16166963c4 and
2e9650cbcff8c8fb0d9ef807c73a44f241822eee, which fixed specific crash
symptoms by hacking things at what now seems to be the wrong end, ie the
callee functions. Making the callees allow NULL is superficially more
robust, but it's not always true that there is a defensible thing for the
callee to do in such cases. The caller has more context and is better
able to decide what the empty-query case ought to do.
Per followup discussion of bug #11335. Back-patch to 9.2. The code
before that is sufficiently different that it would require development
of a separate patch, which doesn't seem worthwhile for what is believed
to be an essentially cosmetic change.

At one time it wasn't terribly important what column names were associated
with the fields of a composite Datum, but since the introduction of
operations like row_to_json(), it's important that looking up the rowtype
ID embedded in the Datum returns the column names that users would expect.
That did not work terribly well before this patch: you could get the column
names of the underlying table, or column aliases from any level of the
query, depending on minor details of the plan tree. You could even get
totally empty field names, which is disastrous for cases like row_to_json().
To fix this for whole-row Vars, look to the RTE referenced by the Var, and
make sure its column aliases are applied to the rowtype associated with
the result Datums. This is a tad scary because we might have to return
a transient RECORD type even though the Var is declared as having some
named rowtype. In principle it should be all right because the record
type will still be physically compatible with the named rowtype; but
I had to weaken one Assert in ExecEvalConvertRowtype, and there might be
third-party code containing similar assumptions.
Similarly, RowExprs have to be willing to override the column names coming
from a named composite result type and produce a RECORD when the column
aliases visible at the site of the RowExpr differ from the underlying
table's column names.
In passing, revert the decision made in commit 398f70ec070fe601 to add
an alias-list argument to ExecTypeFromExprList: better to provide that
functionality in a separate function. This also reverts most of the code
changes in d68581483564ec0f, which we don't need because we're no longer
depending on the tupdesc found in the child plan node's result slot to be
blessed.
Back-patch to 9.4, but not earlier, since this solution changes the results
in some cases that users might not have realized were buggy. We'll apply a
more restricted form of this patch in older branches.

If SELECT FOR UPDATE NOWAIT tries to lock a tuple that is concurrently
being updated, it might fail to honor its NOWAIT specification and block
instead of raising an error.
Fix by adding a no-wait flag to EvalPlanQualFetch which it can pass down
to heap_lock_tuple; also use it in EvalPlanQualFetch itself to avoid
blocking while waiting for a concurrent transaction.

ExecEvalWholeRowVar incorrectly supposed that it could "bless" the source
TupleTableSlot just once per query. But if the input is coming from an
Append (or, perhaps, other cases?) more than one slot might be returned
over the query run. This led to "record type has not been registered"
errors when a composite datum was extracted from a non-blessed slot.
This bug has been there a long time; I guess it escaped notice because when
dealing with subqueries the planner tends to expand whole-row Vars into
RowExprs, which don't have the same problem. It is possible to trigger
the problem in all active branches, though, as illustrated by the added
regression test.

The previous design exposed the input and output ExprContexts of the
Agg plan node, but work on grouping sets has suggested that we'll regret
doing that. Instead provide more narrowly-defined APIs that can be
implemented in multiple ways, namely a way to get a short-term memory
context and a way to register an aggregate shutdown callback.
Back-patch to 9.4 where the bad APIs were introduced, since we don't
want third-party code using these APIs and then having to change in 9.5.

ExecMakeTableFunctionResult evaluated the arguments for a function-in-FROM
in the query-lifespan memory context. This is insignificant in simple
cases where the function relation is scanned only once; but if the function
is in a sub-SELECT or is on the inside of a nested loop, any memory
consumed during argument evaluation can add up quickly. (The potential for
trouble here had been foreseen long ago, per existing comments; but we'd
not previously seen a complaint from the field about it.) To fix, create
an additional temporary context just for this purpose.
Per an example from MauMau. Back-patch to all active branches.

Index-only scans avoid taking a lock on the VM buffer, which would

If we have an array of records stored on disk, the individual record fields
cannot contain out-of-line TOAST pointers: the tuptoaster.c mechanisms are
only prepared to deal with TOAST pointers appearing in top-level fields of
a stored row. The same applies for ranges over composite types, nested
composites, etc. However, the existing code only took care of expanding
sub-field TOAST pointers for the case of nested composites, not for other
structured types containing composites. For example, given a command such
as
UPDATE tab SET arraycol = ARRAY[(ROW(x,42)::mycompositetype] ...
where x is a direct reference to a field of an on-disk tuple, if that field
is long enough to be toasted out-of-line then the TOAST pointer would be
inserted as-is into the array column. If the source record for x is later
deleted, the array field value would become a dangling pointer, leading
to errors along the line of "missing chunk number 0 for toast value ..."
when the value is referenced. A reproducible test case for this was
provided by Jan Pecek, but it seems likely that some of the "missing chunk
number" reports we've heard in the past were caused by similar issues.
Code-wise, the problem is that PG_DETOAST_DATUM() is not adequate to
produce a self-contained Datum value if the Datum is of composite type.
Seen in this light, the problem is not just confined to arrays and ranges,
but could also affect some other places where detoasting is done in that
way, for example form_index_tuple().
I tried teaching the array code to apply toast_flatten_tuple_attribute()
along with PG_DETOAST_DATUM() when the array element type is composite,
but this was messy and imposed extra cache lookup costs whether or not any
TOAST pointers were present, indeed sometimes when the array element type
isn't even composite (since sometimes it takes a typcache lookup to find
that out). The idea of extending that approach to all the places that
currently use PG_DETOAST_DATUM() wasn't attractive at all.
This patch instead solves the problem by decreeing that composite Datum
values must not contain any out-of-line TOAST pointers in the first place;
that is, we expand out-of-line fields at the point of constructing a
composite Datum, not at the point where we're about to insert it into a
larger tuple. This rule is applied only to true composite Datums, not
to tuples that are being passed around the system as tuples, so it's not
as invasive as it might sound at first. With this approach, the amount
of code that has to be touched for a full solution is greatly reduced,
and added cache lookup costs are avoided except when there actually is
a TOAST pointer that needs to be inlined.
The main drawback of this approach is that we might sometimes dereference
a TOAST pointer that will never actually be used by the query, imposing a
rather large cost that wasn't there before. On the other side of the coin,
if the field value is used multiple times then we'll come out ahead by
avoiding repeat detoastings. Experimentation suggests that common SQL
coding patterns are unaffected either way, though. Applications that are
very negatively affected could be advised to modify their code to not fetch
columns they won't be using.
In future, we might consider reverting this solution in favor of detoasting
only at the point where data is about to be stored to disk, using some
method that can drill down into multiple levels of nested structured types.
That will require defining new APIs for structured types, though, so it
doesn't seem feasible as a back-patchable fix.
Note that this patch changes HeapTupleGetDatum() from a macro to a function
call; this means that any third-party code using that macro will not get
protection against creating TOAST-pointer-containing Datums until it's
recompiled. The same applies to any uses of PG_RETURN_HEAPTUPLEHEADER().
It seems likely that this is not a big problem in practice: most of the
tuple-returning functions in core and contrib produce outputs that could
not possibly be toasted anyway, and the same probably holds for third-party
extensions.
This bug has existed since TOAST was invented, so back-patch to all
supported branches.

Before 9.4, such an aggregate couldn't be declared, because its final
function would have to have polymorphic result type but no polymorphic
argument, which CREATE FUNCTION would quite properly reject. The
ordered-set-aggregate patch found a workaround: allow the final function
to be declared as accepting additional dummy arguments that have types
matching the aggregate's regular input arguments. However, we failed
to notice that this problem applies just as much to regular aggregates,
despite the fact that we had a built-in regular aggregate array_agg()
that was known to be undeclarable in SQL because its final function
had an illegal signature. So what we should have done, and what this
patch does, is to decouple the extra-dummy-arguments behavior from
ordered-set aggregates and make it generally available for all aggregate
declarations. We have to put this into 9.4 rather than waiting till
later because it slightly alters the rules for declaring ordered-set
aggregates.
The patch turned out a bit bigger than I'd hoped because it proved
necessary to record the extra-arguments option in a new pg_aggregate
column. I'd thought we could just look at the final function's pronargs
at runtime, but that didn't work well for variadic final functions.
It's probably just as well though, because it simplifies life for pg_dump
to record the option explicitly.
While at it, fix array_agg() to have a valid final-function signature,
and add an opr_sanity test to notice future deviations from polymorphic
consistency. I also marked the percentile_cont() aggregates as not
needing extra arguments, since they don't.

Repositioning the tuplestore seek pointer in window_gettupleslot() turns
out to be a very significant expense when the window frame is sizable and
the frame end can move. To fix, introduce a tuplestore function for
skipping an arbitrary number of tuples in one call, parallel to the one we
introduced for tuplesort objects in commit 8d65da1f. This reduces the cost
of window_gettupleslot() to O(1) if the tuplestore has not spilled to disk.
As in the previous commit, I didn't try to do any real optimization of
tuplestore_skiptuples for the case where the tuplestore has spilled to
disk. There is probably no practical way to get the cost to less than O(N)
anyway, but perhaps someone can think of something later.
Also fix PersistHoldablePortal() to make use of this API now that we have
it.
Based on a suggestion by Dean Rasheed, though this turns out not to look
much like his patch.

Until now, when executing an aggregate function as a window function
within a window with moving frame start (that is, any frame start mode
except UNBOUNDED PRECEDING), we had to recalculate the aggregate from
scratch each time the frame head moved. This patch allows an aggregate
definition to include an alternate "moving aggregate" implementation
that includes an inverse transition function for removing rows from
the aggregate's running state. As long as this can be done successfully,
runtime is proportional to the total number of input rows, rather than
to the number of input rows times the average frame length.
This commit includes the core infrastructure, documentation, and regression
tests using user-defined aggregates. Follow-on commits will update some
of the built-in aggregates to use this feature.

This covers all the SQL-standard trigger types supported for regular
tables; it does not cover constraint triggers. The approach for
acquiring the old row mirrors that for view INSTEAD OF triggers. For
AFTER ROW triggers, we spool the foreign tuples to a tuplestore.
This changes the FDW API contract; when deciding which columns to
populate in the slot returned from data modification callbacks, writable
FDWs will need to check for AFTER ROW triggers in addition to checking
for a RETURNING clause.
In support of the feature addition, refactor the TriggerFlags bits and
the assembly of old tuples in ModifyTable.

With this in place, a session blocking behind another one because of
tuple locks will get a context line mentioning the relation name, tuple
TID, and operation being done on tuple. For example:
LOG: process 11367 still waiting for ShareLock on transaction 717 after 1000.108 ms
DETAIL: Process holding the lock: 11366. Wait queue: 11367.
CONTEXT: while updating tuple (0,2) in relation "foo"
STATEMENT: UPDATE foo SET value = 3;
Most usefully, the new line is displayed by log entries due to

We should allow this so that matviews can be referenced in UPDATE/DELETE
statements in READ COMMITTED isolation level. The requirement for that
is that a re-fetch by TID will see the same row version the query saw
earlier, which is true of matviews, so there's no reason for the
restriction. Per bug #9398.

This feature, building on previous commits, allows the write-ahead log
stream to be decoded into a series of logical changes; that is,
inserts, updates, and deletes and the transactions which contain them.
It is capable of handling decoding even across changes to the schema
of the effected tables. The output format is controlled by a
so-called "output plugin"; an example is included. To make use of
this in a real replication system, the output plugin will need to be
modified to produce output in the format appropriate to that system,
and to perform filtering.
Currently, information can be extracted from the logical decoding
system only via SQL; future commits will add the ability to stream
changes via walsender.

Given a composite-type parameter named x, "$1.*" worked fine, but "x.*"
not so much. This has been broken since named parameter references were
added in commit 9bff0780cf5be2193a5bad0d3df2dbe143085264, so patch back
to 9.2. Per bug #9085 from Hardy Falk.

In commit c1352052ef1d4eeb2eb1d822a207ddc2d106cb13, I implemented an
optimization that assumed that a function's argument expressions would
either always return a set (ie multiple rows), or always not. This is
wrong however: we allow CASE expressions in which some arms return a set
of some type and others just return a scalar of that type. There may be
other examples as well. To fix, replace the run-time test of whether an
argument returned a set with a static precheck (expression_returns_set).
This adds a little bit of query startup overhead, but it seems barely
measurable.
Per bug #8228 from David Johnston. This has been broken since 8.0,
so patch all supported branches.

Keep a pre-initialized FunctionCallInfoData in AggStatePerAggData, and
re-use that at each row instead of doing InitFunctionCallInfoData each
time. This saves only half a dozen assignments and maybe some stack
manipulation, and yet that seems to be good for a percent or two of the
overall query run time for simple aggregates such as count(*). The cost
is that the FunctionCallInfoData (which is about a kilobyte, on 64-bit
machines) stays allocated for the duration of the query instead of being
short-lived stack data. But we're already paying an equivalent space cost
for each regular FuncExpr or OpExpr node, so I don't feel bad about paying
it for aggregate functions. The code seems a little cleaner this way too,
since the number of things passed to advance_transition_function decreases.

This patch introduces generic support for ordered-set and hypothetical-set
aggregate functions, as well as implementations of the instances defined in
SQL:2008 (percentile_cont(), percentile_disc(), rank(), dense_rank(),
percent_rank(), cume_dist()). We also added mode() though it is not in the
spec, as well as versions of percentile_cont() and percentile_disc() that
can compute multiple percentile values in one pass over the data.
Unlike the original submission, this patch puts full control of the sorting
process in the hands of the aggregate's support functions. To allow the
support functions to find out how they're supposed to sort, a new API
function AggGetAggref() is added to nodeAgg.c. This allows retrieval of
the aggregate call's Aggref node, which may have other uses beyond the
immediate need. There is also support for ordered-set aggregates to
install cleanup callback functions, so that they can be sure that
infrastructure such as tuplesort objects gets cleaned up.
In passing, make some fixes in the recently-added support for variadic
aggregates, and make some editorial adjustments in the recent FILTER
additions for aggregates. Also, simplify use of IsBinaryCoercible() by
allowing it to succeed whenever the target type is ANY or ANYELEMENT.
It was inconsistent that it dealt with other polymorphic target types
but not these.

This patch adds the ability to write TABLE( function1(), function2(), ...)
as a single FROM-clause entry. The result is the concatenation of the
first row from each function, followed by the second row from each
function, etc; with NULLs inserted if any function produces fewer rows than
others. This is believed to be a much more useful behavior than what
Postgres currently does with multiple SRFs in a SELECT list.
This syntax also provides a reasonable way to combine use of column
definition lists with WITH ORDINALITY: put the column definition list
inside TABLE(), where it's clear that it doesn't control the ordinality
column as well.
Also implement SQL-compliant multiple-argument UNNEST(), by turning
UNNEST(a,b,c) into TABLE(unnest(a), unnest(b), unnest(c)).
The SQL standard specifies TABLE() with only a single function, not
multiple functions, and it seems to require an implicit UNNEST() which is
not what this patch does. There may be something wrong with that reading
of the spec, though, because if it's right then the spec's TABLE() is just
a pointless alternative spelling of UNNEST(). After further review of
that, we might choose to adopt a different syntax for what this patch does,
but in any case this functionality seems clearly worthwhile.

ExecBuildSlotValueDescription() printed "null" for each dropped column in
a row being complained of by ExecConstraints(). This has some sanity in
terms of the underlying implementation, but is of course pretty surprising
to users. To fix, we must pass the target relation's descriptor to
ExecBuildSlotValueDescription(), because the slot descriptor it had been
using doesn't get labeled with attisdropped markers.
Per bug #8408 from Maxim Boguk. Back-patch to 9.2 where the feature of
printing row values in NOT NULL and CHECK constraint violation messages
was introduced.

Historically, printtup() has assumed that it could prevent memory leakage
by pfree'ing the string result of each output function and manually
managing detoasting of toasted values. This amounts to assuming that
datatype output functions never leak any memory internally; an assumption
we've already decided to be bogus elsewhere, for example in COPY OUT.
range_out in particular is known to leak multiple kilobytes per call, as
noted in bug #8573 from Godfried Vanluffelen. While we could go in and fix
that leak, it wouldn't be very notationally convenient, and in any case
there have been and undoubtedly will again be other leaks in other output
functions. So what seems like the best solution is to run the output
functions in a temporary memory context that can be reset after each row,
as we're doing in COPY OUT. Some quick experimentation suggests this is
actually a tad faster than the retail pfree's anyway.
This patch fixes all the variants of printtup, except for debugtup()
which is used in standalone mode. It doesn't seem worth worrying
about query-lifespan leaks in standalone mode, and fixing that case
would be a bit tedious since debugtup() doesn't currently have any
startup or shutdown functions.
While at it, remove manual detoast management from several other
output-function call sites that had copied it from printtup(). This
doesn't make a lot of difference right now, but in view of recent
discussions about supporting "non-flattened" Datums, we're going to
want that code gone eventually anyway.
Back-patch to 9.2 where range_out was introduced. We might eventually
decide to back-patch this further, but in the absence of known major
leaks in older output functions, I'll refrain for now.

Previously, arbitray system columns could be mentioned in table
constraints, but they were not correctly checked at runtime, because
the values weren't actually set correctly in the tuple. Since it
seems easy enough to initialize the table OID properly, do that,
and continue allowing that column, but disallow the rest unless and
until someone figures out a way to make them work properly.
No back-patch, because this doesn't seem important enough to take the
risk of destabilizing the back branches. In fact, this will pose a
dump-and-reload hazard for those upgrading from previous versions:
constraints that were accepted before but were not correctly enforced
will now either be enforced correctly or not accepted at all. Either
could result in restore failures, but in practice I think very few
users will notice the difference, since the use case is pretty
marginal anyway and few users will be relying on features that have
not historically worked.

There's no inherent reason why an aggregate function can't be variadic
(even VARIADIC ANY) if its transition function can handle the case.
Indeed, this patch to add the feature touches none of the planner or
executor, and little of the parser; the main missing stuff was DDL and
pg_dump support.
It is true that variadic aggregates can create the same sort of ambiguity
about parameters versus ORDER BY keys that was complained of when we
(briefly) had both one- and two-argument forms of string_agg(). However,
the policy formed in response to that discussion only said that we'd not
create any built-in aggregates with varying numbers of arguments, not that
we shouldn't allow users to do it. So the logical extension of that is
we can allow users to make variadic aggregates as long as we're wary about
shipping any such in core.
In passing, this patch allows aggregate function arguments to be named, to
the extent of remembering the names in pg_proc and dumping them in pg_dump.
You can't yet call an aggregate using named-parameter notation. That seems
like a likely future extension, but it'll take some work, and it's not what
this patch is really about. Likewise, there's still some work needed to
make window functions handle VARIADIC fully, but I left that for another
day.

plpgsql often just remembers SPI-result tuple tables in local variables,
and has no mechanism for freeing them if an ereport(ERROR) causes an escape
out of the execution function whose local variable it is. In the original
coding, that wasn't a problem because the tuple table would be cleaned up
when the function's SPI context went away during transaction abort.
However, once plpgsql grew the ability to trap exceptions, repeated
trapping of errors within a function could result in significant
intra-function-call memory leakage, as illustrated in bug #8279 from
Chad Wagner.
We could fix this locally in plpgsql with a bunch of PG_TRY/PG_CATCH
coding, but that would be tedious, probably slow, and prone to bugs of
omission; moreover it would do nothing for similar risks elsewhere.
What seems like a better plan is to make SPI itself responsible for
freeing tuple tables at subtransaction abort. This patch attacks the
problem that way, keeping a list of live tuple tables within each SPI
function context. Currently, such freeing is automatic for tuple tables
made within the failed subtransaction. We might later add a SPI call to
mark a tuple table as not to be freed this way, allowing callers to opt
out; but until someone exhibits a clear use-case for such behavior, it
doesn't seem worth bothering.
A very useful side-effect of this change is that SPI_freetuptable() can
now defend itself against bad calls, such as duplicate free requests;
this should make things more robust in many places. (In particular,
this reduces the risks involved if a third-party extension contains
now-redundant SPI_freetuptable() calls in error cleanup code.)
Even though the leakage problem is of long standing, it seems imprudent
to back-patch this into stable branches, since it does represent an API
semantics change for SPI users. We'll patch this in 9.3, but live with
the leakage in older branches.

As far as I can determine, there's no code in the core distribution
that fails to explicitly set the snapshot of a scan or executor
state. If there is any such code, this will probably cause it to
seg fault; friendlier suggestions were discussed on pgsql-hackers,
but there was no consensus that anything more than this was
needed.
This is another step towards the hoped-for complete removal of
SnapshotNow.

Previously, these functions took a HeapTupleHeader, but upcoming
patches for logical replication will introduce new a new snapshot
type under which the tuple's TID will be used to lookup (CMIN, CMAX)
for visibility determination purposes. This makes that information
available. Code churn is minimal since HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility
took the HeapTuple anyway, and deferenced it before calling the
satisfies function.
Independently of logical replication, this allows t_tableOid and
t_self to be cross-checked via assertions in tqual.c. This seems
like a useful way to make sure that all callers are setting these
values properly, which has been previously put forward as
desirable.

For simple views which are automatically updatable, this patch allows
the user to specify what level of checking should be done on records
being inserted or updated. For 'LOCAL CHECK', new tuples are validated
against the conditionals of the view they are being inserted into, while
for 'CASCADED CHECK' the new tuples are validated against the
conditionals for all views involved (from the top down).
This option is part of the SQL specification.
