Buildfarm member jacana appears to have an issue with running this
test. It's not entirely clear to me why, but rather than try to
fight with it, just disable it for now.
None of the other tests try to write out from psql directly as
this test does, so it seems likely that the rest of the tests will
be fine (as they have been on numerous other systems).

Limit maintenance of time to xid mapping to once per minute. At
least in the tested case this brings performance within 5% of when
the feature is off, compared to several times slower without this
patch.
While there, fix comments and whitespace.

The test_pg_dump extension doesn't have a C component, so we need
to exclude it from the MSVC build system trying to figure out how
to build it.
Also add a "MODULES" line to the Makefile, as test_extensions has.
Might not be necessary, but seems good to keep things consistent.
Lastly, remove the 'installcheck' line from test_pg_dump, as that
was causing redefinition errors, at least on my box. This also
makes test_pg_dump consistent with how commit_ts is set up.

The Makefile for test_pg_dump shouldn't have a MODULES_big line
because there's no actual compiled bit for that extension. Hopefully
this will fix the Windows buildfarm members which were complaining.
In passing, also add the 'prove_installcheck' bit to the pg_dump and
test_pg_dump Makefiles, to get the buildfarm members to actually run
those tests.

This new limit affects both the max_parallel_degree GUC and the
parallel_degree reloption. There may some day be a use case for using
more than 1024 CPUs for a single query, but that's surely not the case
right now. Not only do not very many people have that many CPUs, but
the code hasn't been tested at that kind of scale and is very unlikely
to perform well, or even work at all, without a lot more work. The
issue addressed by commit 06bd458cb812623c3f1fdd55216c4c08b06a8447 is
probably just one problem of many.
The idea of a more reasonable limit here was suggested by Tom Lane;
the value of 1024 was suggested by Amit Kapila.

Ordinarily, pg_upgrade shouldn't have any difficulty in matching up all
the relations it sees in the old and new databases. If it does, however,
it just goes belly-up with a pretty unhelpful error message. That seemed
fine as long as we expected the case never to occur in the wild, but
Alvaro reported that it had been seen in a database whose pg_largeobject
table had somehow acquired a TOAST table. That doesn't quite seem like
a case that pg_upgrade actually needs to handle, but it would be good if
the report were more diagnosable. Hence, extend the logic to print out
as much information as we can about the mismatch(es) before we quit.
In passing, improve the readability of get_rel_infos()'s data collection
query, which had suffered seriously from lets-not-bother-to-update-comments
syndrome, and generally was unnecessarily disrespectful to readers.
It could be argued that this is a bug fix, but given that we have so few
reports, I don't feel a need to back-patch; at least not before this has
baked awhile in HEAD.

That way, if the result overflows size_t, you'll get an error instead
of undefined behavior, which seems like a plus. This also has the
effect of casting the number of workers from int to Size, which is
better because it's harder to overflow int than size_t.
Dilip Kumar reported this issue and provided a patch upon which this
patch is based, but his version did use mul_size.

Default roles really should be like regular roles, for the most part.
This removes a number of checks that were trying to make default roles
extra special by not allowing them to be used as regular roles.
We still prevent users from creating roles in the "pg_" namespace or
from altering roles which exist in that namespace via ALTER ROLE, as
we can't preserve such changes, but otherwise the roles are very much
like regular roles.
Based on discussion with Robert and Tom.

This TAP test suite will create a new cluster, populate it based on
the 'create_sql' values in the '%tests' hash, run all of the runs
defined in the '%pgdump_runs' hash, and then for each test in the
'%tests' hash, compare each run's output the the regular expression
defined for the test under the 'like' and 'unlike' functions, as
appropriate.
While this test suite covers a fair bit of ground (67% of pg_dump.c
and quite a bit of the other files in src/bin/pg_dump), there is
still quite a bit which remains to be added to provide better code
coverage. Still, this is quite a bit better than we had, and has
found a few bugs already (note that the CREATE TRANSFORM test is
commented out, as it is currently failing).
Idea for using the TAP system from Tom, though all of the code is mine.

Reviewing the cases where we need to LOCK a given table during a dump,
it was pointed out by Tom that we really don't need to LOCK a table if
we are only looking to dump the ACL for it, or certain other
components. After reviewing the queries run for all of the component
pieces, a list of components were determined to not require LOCK'ing
of the table.
This implements a check to avoid LOCK'ing those tables.
Initial complaint from Rushabh Lathia, discussed with Robert and Tom,
the patch is mine.

Do not try to dump objects which do not have ACLs when only ACLs are
being requested. This results in a significant performance improvement
as we can avoid querying for further information on these objects when
we don't need to.
When limiting the components to dump for an extension, consider what
components have been requested. Initially, we incorrectly hard-coded
the components of the extension objects to dump, which would mean that
we wouldn't dump some components even with they were asked for and in
other cases we would dump components which weren't requested.
Correct defaultACLs to use 'dump_contains' instead of 'dump'. The
defaultACL is considered a member of the namespace and should be
dumped based on the same set of components that the other objects in
the schema are, not based on what we're dumping for the namespace
itself (which might not include ACLs, if the namespace has just the
default or initial ACL).
Use DUMP_COMPONENT_ACL for from-initdb objects, to allow users to
change their ACLs, should they wish to. This just extends what we
are doing for the pg_catalog namespace to objects which are not
members of namespaces.
Due to column ACLs being treated a bit differently from other ACLs
(they are actually reset to NULL when all privileges are revoked),
adjust the query which gathers column-level ACLs to consider all of
the ACL-relevant columns.

The query to grab the function/aggregate information is now joining
to pg_init_privs, so we can simplify (and correct) the WHERE clause
used to determine if a given function's ACL has changed from the
initial ACL on the function.

to_timestamp() handles the TH/th format codes by advancing over two input
characters, whatever those are. It failed to notice whether there were
two characters available to be skipped, making it possible to advance
the pointer past the end of the input string and keep on parsing.
A similar risk existed in the handling of "Y,YYY" format: it would advance
over three characters after the "," whether or not three characters were
available.
In principle this might be exploitable to disclose contents of server
memory. But the security team concluded that it would be very hard to use
that way, because the parsing loop would stop upon hitting any zero byte,
and TH/th format codes can't be consecutive --- they have to follow some
other format code, which would have to match whatever data is there.
So it seems impractical to examine memory very much beyond the end of the
input string via this bug; and the input string will always be in local
memory not in disk buffers, making it unlikely that anything very
interesting is close to it in a predictable way. So this doesn't quite
rise to the level of needing a CVE.
Thanks to Wolf Roediger for reporting this bug.

The previous coding always stored variable values as strings, doing
conversion on-the-fly when a numeric value was needed or a number was to be
assigned. This was a bit inefficient and risked loss of precision for
floating-point values. The precision aspect had been hacked around by
printing doubles in "%.18e" format, which is ugly and has machine-dependent
results. Instead, arrange to preserve an assigned numeric value in the
original binary numeric format, converting to string only when and if
needed. When we do need to convert a double to string, convert in "%g"
format with DBL_DIG precision, which is the standard way to do it and
produces the least surprising results in most cases.
The implementation supports storing both a string value and a numeric
value for any one variable, with lazy conversion between them. I also
arranged for lazy re-sorting of the variable array when new variables are
added. That was mainly to allow a clean refactoring of putVariable()
into two levels of subroutine, but it may allow us to save a few sorts.

Hash indexes are not WAL-logged, and so do not maintain the LSN of
index pages. Since the "snapshot too old" feature counts on
detecting error conditions using the LSN of a table and all indexes
on it, this makes it impossible to safely do early vacuuming on any
table with a hash index, so add this to the tests for whether the
xid used to vacuum a table can be adjusted based on
old_snapshot_threshold.
While at it, add a paragraph to the docs for old_snapshot_threshold
which specifically mentions this and other aspects of the feature
which may otherwise surprise users.

These functions behave like the backend's least/greatest functions,
not like min/max, so the originally-chosen names invite confusion.
Per discussion, rename to least/greatest.
I also took it upon myself to make them return double if any input is
double. The previous behavior of silently coercing all inputs to int
surely does not meet the principle of least astonishment.
Copy-edit some of the other new functions' documentation, too.

Commit 7d9a4737c268f61fb8800957631f12d3f13be218 greatly improved the
accuracy of the numeric transcendental functions, however it failed to
consider the case where the result from pow() is close to the overflow
threshold, for example 0.12 ^ -2345.6. For such inputs, where the
result has more than 2000 digits before the decimal point, the decimal
result weight estimate was being clamped to 2000, leading to a loss of
precision in the final calculation.
Fix this by replacing the clamping code with an overflow test that
aborts the calculation early if the final result is sure to overflow,
based on the overflow limit in exp_var(). This provides the same
protection against integer overflow in the subsequent result scale
computation as the original clamping code, but it also ensures that
precision is never lost and saves compute cycles in cases that are
sure to overflow.
The new early overflow test works with the initial low-precision
result (expected to be accurate to around 8 significant digits) and
includes a small fuzz factor to ensure that it doesn't kick in for
values that would not overflow exp_var(), so the overall overflow
threshold of pow() is unchanged and consistent for all inputs with
non-integer exponents.

Unfortunately the segment size checks from 72a98a6395 had the negative
side-effect of breaking a corner case in mdsync(): When processing a
fsync request for a truncated away segment mdsync() could fail with
"could not fsync file" (if previous segment < RELSEG_SIZE) because
_mdfd_getseg() now wouldn't return the relevant segment anymore.
The cleanest fix seems to be to allow the caller of _mdfd_getseg() to
specify whether checks for RELSEG_SIZE are performed. To allow doing so,
change the ExtensionBehavior enum into a bitmask. Besides allowing for
the addition of EXTENSION_DONT_CHECK_SIZE, this makes for a nicer
implementation of EXTENSION_REALLY_RETURN_NULL.
Besides mdsync() the only callsite that should change behaviour due to
this is mdprefetch() which now doesn't create segments anymore, even in
recovery. Given the uses of mdprefetch() that seems better.

this one; so add a PARALLEL RESTRICTED declaration there to match

We mustn't run generate_gather_paths() during add_paths_to_joinrel(),
because that function can be invoked multiple times for the same target
joinrel. Not only is it wasteful to build GatherPaths repeatedly, but
a later add_partial_path() could delete the partial path that a previously
created GatherPath depends on. Instead establish the convention that we
do generate_gather_paths() for a rel only just before set_cheapest().
The code was accidentally not broken for baserels, because as of today there
never is more than one partial path for a baserel. But that assumption
obviously has a pretty short half-life, so move the generate_gather_paths()
calls for those cases as well.
Also add some generic comments explaining how and why this all works.

Given a three-or-more-way equivalence class, such as X.Y = Y.Y = Z.Z,
it was possible for the planner to omit one of the quals needed to
enforce that all members of the equivalence class are actually equal.
This only happened in the case of a parameterized join node for two
of the relations, that is a plan tree like
Nested Loop
-> Scan X
-> Nested Loop
-> Scan Y
-> Scan Z
Filter: Z.Z = X.X
The eclass machinery normally expects to apply X.X = Y.Y when those
two relations are joined, but in this shape of plan tree they aren't
joined until the top node --- and, if the lower nested loop is marked
as parameterized by X, the top node will assume that the relevant eclass
condition(s) got pushed down into the lower node. On the other hand,
the scan of Z assumes that it's only responsible for constraining Z.Z
to match any one of the other eclass members. So one or another of
the required quals sometimes fell between the cracks, depending on
whether consideration of the eclass in get_joinrel_parampathinfo()
for the lower nested loop chanced to generate X.X = Y.Y or X.X = Z.Z
as the appropriate constraint there. If it generated the latter,
it'd erroneously suppose that the Z scan would take care of matters.
To fix, force X.X = Y.Y to be generated and applied at that join node
when this case occurs.
This is *extremely* hard to hit in practice, because various planner
behaviors conspire to mask the problem; starting with the fact that the
planner doesn't really like to generate a parameterized plan of the
above shape. (It might have been impossible to hit it before we
tweaked things to allow this plan shape for star-schema cases.) Many
thanks to Alexander Kirkouski for submitting a reproducible test case.
The bug can be demonstrated in all branches back to 9.2 where parameterized
paths were introduced, so back-patch that far.

Without a few entries beyond old_snapshot_threshold, the lookup
would often fail, resulting in the more aggressive pruning or
vacuum being skipped often enough to matter. This was very clearly
shown by a python test script posted by Ants Aasma, and was likely
a factor in an earlier but somewhat less clear-cut test case posted
by Jeff Janes.
This patch makes no change to the logic, per se -- it just makes
the array of mapping entries big enough to make lookup misses based
on timing much less likely. An occasional miss is still possible
if a thread stalls for more than 10 minutes, but that does not
create any problem with correctness of behavior. Besides, if
things are so busy that a thread is stalling for more than 10
minutes, it is probably OK to skip the more aggressive cleanup at
that particular point in time.

Since 5a991ef8 we're explicitly asking for feedback from the receiving
side when shutting down walsender, if there's not yet replicated
data.
Unfortunately we didn't remember (i.e. set waiting_for_ping_response to
true) having asked for feedback, leading to scenarios in which replies
were requested at a high frequency.
I can't reproduce this problem on my laptop, I think that's because the

Commit 23a41573c attempted to fix the DatumGetBool macro to ignore bits
in a Datum that are to the left of the actual bool value. But it did that
by casting the Datum to bool; and on compilers that use C99 semantics for
bool, that ends up being a whole-word test, not a 1-byte test. This seems
to be the true explanation for contrib/seg failing in VS2015. To fix, use
GET_1_BYTE() explicitly. I think in the previous patch, I'd had some idea
of not having to commit to bool being exactly 1 byte wide, but regardless
of what the compiler's bool is, boolean columns and Datums are certainly
1 byte wide.
The previous fix was (eventually) back-patched into all active versions,
so do likewise with this one.

Use macroses for definition amstrategies/amsupport fields instead of
hardcoded values.

Previously, ginInsertCleanup could exit early if it detects that someone else
is cleaning up the pending list, without waiting for that someone else to
finish the job. But in this case vacuum could miss tuples to be deleted.
Cleanup process now locks metapage with a help of heavyweight
LockPage(ExclusiveLock), and it guarantees that there is no another cleanup
process at the same time. Lock is taken differently depending on caller of
cleanup process: any vacuums and gin_clean_pending_list() will be blocked
until lock becomes available, ordinary insert uses conditional lock to
prevent indefinite waiting on lock.
Insert into pending list doesn't use this lock, so insertion isn't blocked.
Also, patch adds stopping of cleanup process when at-start-cleanup-tail is
reached in order to prevent infinite cleanup in case of massive insertion. But
it will stop only for automatic maintenance tasks like autovacuum.
Patch introduces choice of limit of memory to use: autovacuum_work_mem,
maintenance_work_mem or work_mem depending on call path.
Patch for previous releases should be reworked due to changes between 9.6 and
previous ones in this area.

The previous coding here was formally undefined, though it seems to
accidentally work on most platforms in the buildfarm. Caught by some
OpenBSD platforms in which libc contains an assertion check for
overlapping areas passed to memcpy().

Commit 989be0810dffd08b added a flex/bison lexer/parser to interpret
synchronous_standby_names. It was done in a pretty crufty way, though,
making assorted end-use sites responsible for calling the parser at the
right times. That was not only vulnerable to errors of omission, but made
it possible that lexer/parser errors occur at very undesirable times,
and created memory leakages even if there was no error.
Instead, perform the parsing once during check_synchronous_standby_names
and let guc.c manage the resulting data. To do that, we have to flatten
the parsed representation into a single hunk of malloc'd memory, but that
is not very hard.
While at it, work a little harder on making useful error reports for
parsing problems; the previous code felt that "synchronous_standby_names
parser returned 1" was an appropriate user-facing error message. (To
be fair, it did also log a syntax error message, but separately from the
GUC problem report, which is at best confusing.) It had some outright
bugs in the face of invalid input, too.
I (tgl) also concluded that we need to restrict unquoted names in
synchronous_standby_names to be just SQL identifiers. The previous coding
would accept darn near anything, which (1) makes the quoting convention
both nearly-unnecessary and formally ambiguous, (2) makes it very hard to
understand what is a syntax error and what is a creative interpretation of
the input as a standby name, and (3) makes it impossible to further extend
the syntax in future without a compatibility break. I presume that we're
intending future extensions of the syntax, else this parsing infrastructure
is massive overkill, so (3) is an important objection. Since we've taken
a compatibility hit for non-identifier names with this change anyway, we
might as well lock things down now and insist that users use double quotes
for standby names that aren't identifiers.
