the portal is already in aborted state. Report and diagnosis by Tatsuo

pg_constraint before searching pg_trigger. This allows saner handling of
corner cases; in particular we now say "constraint is not deferrable"
rather than "constraint does not exist" when the command is applied to
a constraint that's inherently non-deferrable. Per a gripe several months
ago from hubert depesz lubaczewski.
To make this work without breaking user-defined constraint triggers,
we have to add entries for them to pg_constraint. However, in return
we can remove the pgconstrname column from pg_constraint, which represents
a fairly sizable space savings. I also replaced the tgisconstraint column
with tgisinternal; the old meaning of tgisconstraint can now be had by
testing for nonzero tgconstraint, while there is no other way to get
the old meaning of nonzero tgconstraint, namely that the trigger was
internally generated rather than being user-created.
In passing, fix an old misstatement in the docs and comments, namely that
pg_trigger.tgdeferrable is exactly redundant with pg_constraint.condeferrable.
Actually, we mark RI action triggers as nondeferrable even when they belong to
a nominally deferrable FK constraint. The SET CONSTRAINTS code now relies on
that instead of hard-coding a list of exception OIDs.

parse analysis phase, rather than at execution time. This makes parameter
handling work the same as it does in ordinary plannable queries, and in
particular fixes the incompatibility that Pavel pointed out with plpgsql's
new handling of variable references. plancache.c gets a little bit
grottier, but the alternatives seem worse.

This includes two new kinds of postmaster processes, walsenders and
walreceiver. Walreceiver is responsible for connecting to the primary server
and streaming WAL to disk, while walsender runs in the primary server and
streams WAL from disk to the client.
Documentation still needs work, but the basics are there. We will probably
pull the replication section to a new chapter later on, as well as the
sections describing file-based replication. But let's do that as a separate
patch, so that it's easier to see what has been added/changed. This patch
also adds a new section to the chapter about FE/BE protocol, documenting the
protocol used by walsender/walreceivxer.
Bump catalog version because of two new functions,
pg_last_xlog_receive_location() and pg_last_xlog_replay_location(), for
monitoring the progress of replication.

underlying catalog not only the index itself. Otherwise, if the cache
load process touches the catalog (which will happen for many though not
all of these indexes), we are locking index before parent table, which can
result in a deadlock against processes that are trying to lock them in the
normal order. Per today's failure on buildfarm member gothic_moth; it's
surprising the problem hadn't been identified before.
Back-patch to 8.2. Earlier releases didn't have the issue because they
didn't try to lock these indexes during load (instead assuming that they
couldn't change schema at all during multiuser operation).

especially not ROLLBACK. ROLLBACK might need to be executed in an already
aborted transaction, when there is no safe way to revalidate the plan. But
in general there's no point in marking utility statements invalid, since
they have no plans in the normal sense of the word; so we might as well
work a bit harder here to avoid future revalidation cycles.
Back-patch to 8.4, where the bug was introduced.

occurring during a reload, such as query-cancel. Instead of zeroing out
an existing relcache entry and rebuilding it in place, build a new relcache
entry, then swap its contents with the old one, then free the new entry.
This avoids problems with code believing that a previously obtained pointer
to a cache entry must still reference a valid entry, as seen in recent
failures on buildfarm member jaguar. (jaguar is using CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS
which raises the probability of failure substantially, but the problem
could occur in the field without that.) The previous design was okay
when it was made, but subtransactions and the ResourceOwner mechanism
make it unsafe now.
Also, make more use of the already existing rd_isvalid flag, so that we
remember that the entry requires rebuilding even if the first attempt fails.
Back-patch as far as 8.2. Prior versions have enough issues around relcache
reload anyway (due to inadequate locking) that fixing this one doesn't seem
worthwhile.

deletion, so that we attempt to unlink the correct filepath. unlink()
errors are ignorable there, so lack of a DatabasePath initialization step
did not cause visible problems until a related bug showed up on Solaris.
Code refactored from xact_redo_commit() to
ProcessCommittedInvalidationMessages() in inval.c. Recovery may replay
shared invalidation messages for many databases, so we cannot
SetDatabasePath() once as we do in normal backends. Read the databaseid
from the shared invalidation messages, then set DatabasePath
temporarily before calling RelationCacheInitFileInvalidate().

of the string". The previous coding treated only -1 that way, and would
produce an invalid result value for other negative values.
We ought to fix it so that 2-parameter bit substring() is a different C
function and the 3-parameter form throws error for negative length, but
that takes a pg_proc change which is impractical in the back branches;
and in any case somebody might be relying on -1 working this way.
So just do this as a back-patchable fix.

I did keep the 64-bit-CRC-with-32-bit-arithmetic code, since it has a

Add missing varlena header to TableSpaceOpts structure. And, per

call it in the caller's memory context and copy the value over

This patch only supports seq_page_cost and random_page_cost as parameters,
but it provides the infrastructure to scalably support many more.
In particular, we may want to add support for effective_io_concurrency,
but I'm leaving that as future work for now.

pg_attribute, by having genbki.pl derive the information from the various
catalog header files. This greatly simplifies modification of the
"bootstrapped" catalogs.
This patch finally kills genbki.sh and Gen_fmgrtab.sh; we now rely entirely on
Perl scripts for those build steps. To avoid creating a Perl build dependency
where there was not one before, the output files generated by these scripts
are now treated as distprep targets, ie, they will be built and shipped in
tarballs. But you will need a reasonably modern Perl (probably at least
5.6) if you want to build from a CVS pull.
The changes to the MSVC build process are untested, and may well break ---
we'll soon find out from the buildfarm.

"column < constant", and the comparison value is in the first or last
histogram bin or outside the histogram entirely, try to fetch the actual
column min or max value using an index scan (if there is an index on the
column). If successful, replace the lower or upper histogram bound with
that value before carrying on with the estimate. This limits the
estimation error caused by moving min/max values when the comparison
value is close to the min or max. Per a complaint from Josh Berkus.
It is tempting to consider using this mechanism for mergejoinscansel as well,
but that would inject index fetches into main-line join estimation not just
endpoint cases. I'm refraining from that until we can get a better handle
on the costs of doing this type of lookup.

This is needed to avoid unwanted interference with SUBSTRING behavior,
as per bug #5257 from Roman Kononov. Also, add some basic intelligence
about character classes (bracket expressions) since we now have several
behaviors that aren't appropriate inside a character class.
As with the previous patch in this area, I'm reluctant to back-patch
since it might affect applications that are relying on the prior
behavior.

to be just a minor extension of the previous patch that made "x IS NULL"
indexable, because we can treat the IS NOT NULL condition as if it were
"x < NULL" or "x > NULL" (depending on the index's NULLS FIRST/LAST option),
just like IS NULL is treated like "x = NULL". Aside from any possible
usefulness in its own right, this is an important improvement for
index-optimized MAX/MIN aggregates: it is now reliably possible to get
a column's min or max value cheaply, even when there are a lot of nulls
cluttering the interesting end of the index.

Since the int2vector type is intended only for internal use, this patch doesn't
worry about prettifying the error messages, which has the fringe benefit of
avoiding creating additional translatable strings. For a type intended to be
used by end-users, we would want to do better, but the approach taken here
seems like the correct trade-off for this case.

PL/pgSQL function within an exception handler. Make sure we use the right
resource owner when we create the tuplestore to hold returned tuples.
Simplify tuplestore API so that the caller doesn't need to be in the right
memory context when calling tuplestore_put* functions. tuplestore.c
automatically switches to the memory context used when the tuplestore was
created. Tuplesort was already modified like this earlier. This patch also
removes the now useless MemoryContextSwitch calls from callers.

Enabled by recovery_connections = on (default) and forcing archive recovery using a recovery.conf. Recovery processing now emulates the original transactions as they are replayed, providing full locking and MVCC behaviour for read only queries. Recovery must enter consistent state before connections are allowed, so there is a delay, typically short, before connections succeed. Replay of recovering transactions can conflict and in some cases deadlock with queries during recovery; these result in query cancellation after max_standby_delay seconds have expired. Infrastructure changes have minor effects on normal running, though introduce four new types of WAL record.
New test mode "make standbycheck" allows regression tests of static command behaviour on a standby server while in recovery. Typical and extreme dynamic behaviours have been checked via code inspection and manual testing. Few port specific behaviours have been utilised, though primary testing has been on Linux only so far.
This commit is the basic patch. Additional changes will follow in this release to enhance some aspects of behaviour, notably improved handling of conflicts, deadlock detection and query cancellation. Changes to VACUUM FULL are also required.

non-kluge method for controlling the order in which values are fed to an
aggregate function. At the same time eliminate the old implementation
restriction that DISTINCT was only supported for single-argument aggregates.
Possibly release-notable behavioral change: formerly, agg(DISTINCT x)
dropped null values of x unconditionally. Now, it does so only if the
agg transition function is strict; otherwise nulls are treated as DISTINCT
normally would, ie, you get one copy.

an allegedly immutable index function. It was previously recognized that
we had to prevent such a function from executing SET/RESET ROLE/SESSION
AUTHORIZATION, or it could trivially obtain the privileges of the session
user. However, since there is in general no privilege checking for changes
of session-local state, it is also possible for such a function to change
settings in a way that might subvert later operations in the same session.
Examples include changing search_path to cause an unexpected function to
be called, or replacing an existing prepared statement with another one
that will execute a function of the attacker's choosing.
The present patch secures VACUUM, ANALYZE, and CREATE INDEX/REINDEX against
these threats, which are the same places previously deemed to need protection
against the SET ROLE issue. GUC changes are still allowed, since there are
many useful cases for that, but we prevent security problems by forcing a
rollback of any GUC change after completing the operation. Other cases are
handled by throwing an error if any change is attempted; these include temp
table creation, closing a cursor, and creating or deleting a prepared
statement. (In 7.4, the infrastructure to roll back GUC changes doesn't
exist, so we settle for rejecting changes of "search_path" in these contexts.)

against that.
Also, implement the role_*_grants views as a thin layer over the respective

in a subtransaction stays open even if the subtransaction is aborted, so
any temporary files related to it must stay alive as well. With the patch,
we use ResourceOwners to track open temporary files and don't automatically
close them at subtransaction end (though in the normal case temporary files
are registered with the subtransaction resource owner and will therefore be
closed).
At end of top transaction, we still check that there's no temporary files
marked as close-at-end-of-transaction open, but that's now just a debugging
cross-check as the resource owner cleanup should've closed them already.

For BEFORE triggers this is mostly a matter of spec compliance; but for AFTER
triggers it can provide a noticeable performance improvement, since queuing of
a deferred trigger event and re-fetching of the row(s) at end of statement can
be short-circuited if the trigger does not need to be fired.
