Fix partitionwise join with partially-redundant join clauses
To determine if the two relations being joined can use partitionwise
join, we need to verify the existence of equi-join conditions
involving pairs of matching partition keys for all partition keys.
Currently we do that by looking through the join's restriction
clauses. However, it has been discovered that this approach is
insufficient, because there might be partition keys known equal by a
specific EC, but they do not form a join clause because it happens
that other members of the EC than the partition keys are constrained
to become a join clause.
To address this issue, in addition to examining the join's restriction
clauses, we also check if any partition keys are known equal by ECs,
by leveraging function exprs_known_equal(). To accomplish this, we
enhance exprs_known_equal() to check equality per the semantics of the
opfamily, if provided.
It could be argued that exprs_known_equal() could be called O(N^2)
times, where N is the number of partition key expressions, resulting
in noticeable performance costs if there are a lot of partition key
expressions. But I think this is not a problem. The number of a
joinrel's partition key expressions would only be equal to the join
degree, since each base relation within the join contributes only one
partition key expression. That is to say, it does not scale with the
number of partitions. A benchmark with a query involving 5-way joins
of partitioned tables, each with 3 partition keys and 1000 partitions,
shows that the planning time is not significantly affected by this
patch (within the margin of error), particularly when compared to the
impact caused by partitionwise join.
Thanks to Tom Lane for the idea of leveraging exprs_known_equal() to
check if partition keys are known equal by ECs.

This patch introduces a check for mergeclause_list at the beginning of

3. Use runtime coercion for the boolean ON ERROR constants so that

character(n)" when the parser tries to coerce the default ON ERROR
value "false" to that type, that is, even when clause is not

Count individual SQL commands in pg_restore's --transaction-size mode.
The initial implementation in commit
959b38d77 counted one action
per TOC entry (except for some special cases for multi-blob BLOBS

complex, but it turns out that that assumption doesn't hold up very
well in binary-upgrade mode. For example, even after the previous
commit I was able to cause backend bloat with tables having many
inherited constraints. There may be other cases too. (Since no
serious problems have been reported with --single-transaction mode,
we can conclude that the backend copes well with psql's regular
restore scripts; but before
959b38d77 we never ran binary-upgrade
restores with multi-command transactions.)
To fix, count multi-command TOC entries as N actions, allowing the
transaction size to be scaled down when we hit a complex TOC entry.
Rather than add a SQL parser to pg_restore, approximate "multi
command" by counting semicolons in the TOC entry's defn string.
This will be fooled by semicolons appearing in string literals ---
but the error is in the conservative direction, so it doesn't seem
worth working harder. The biggest risk is with function/procedure
TOC entries, but we can just explicitly skip those.

revert it after fixing the backend's bloat issues or rethinking

Reduce number of commands dumpTableSchema emits for binary upgrade.

With the separate updates, we triggered a relcache invalidation with

bloat in txn_size mode because the table's newly-created relcache
entry can't be flushed till end of transaction. Reducing the number
of commands should make it marginally faster as well as avoiding that
problem.
While at it, likewise avoid issuing a separate UPDATE on pg_constraint
for each inherited constraint. This is less exciting, first because
inherited (non-partitioned) constraints are relatively rare, and
second because the backend has a good deal of trouble anyway with
restoring tables containing many such constraints, due to
MergeConstraintsIntoExisting being horribly inefficient. But it seems
more consistent to do it this way here too, and it surely can't hurt.

One notable change is that we no longer generate cancellation keys for
non-backend processes. We generated them before just to prevent a
malicious user from canceling them; the keys for non-backend processes
were never actually given to anyone. There is now an explicit flag
indicating whether a process has a valid key or not.
I wrote this originally in preparation for supporting longer cancel
keys, but it's a nice cleanup on its own.

Reduce memory used by partitionwise joins
In try_partitionwise_join, we aim to break down the join between two
partitioned relations into joins between matching partitions. To
achieve this, we iterate through each pair of partitions from the two
joining relations and create child-join relations for them. With
potentially thousands of partitions, the local objects allocated in
each iteration can accumulate significant memory usage. Therefore, we
opt to eagerly free these local objects at the end of each iteration.
In line with this approach, this patch frees the bitmap set that
represents the relids of child-join relations at the end of each
iteration. Additionally, it modifies build_child_join_rel() to reuse
the AppendRelInfo structures generated within each iteration.

Optimize escaping of JSON strings
There were quite a few places where we either had a non-NUL-terminated
string or a text Datum which we needed to call escape_json() on. Many of
these places required that a temporary string was created due to the fact
that escape_json() needs a NUL-terminated cstring. For text types, those
first had to be converted to cstring before calling escape_json() on them.
Here we introduce two new functions to make escaping JSON more optimal:
escape_json_text() can be given a text Datum to append onto the given
buffer. This is more optimal as it foregoes the need to convert the text
Datum into a cstring. A temporary allocation is only required if the text
Datum needs to be detoasted.
escape_json_with_len() can be used when the length of the cstring is
already known or the given string isn't NUL-terminated. Having this
allows various places which were creating a temporary NUL-terminated
string to just call escape_json_with_len() without any temporary memory
allocations.

Wait for WAL summarization to catch up before creating .partial file.
When a standby is promoted, CleanupAfterArchiveRecovery() may decide
to rename the final WAL file from the old timeline by adding ".partial"
to the name. If WAL summarization is enabled and this file is renamed
before its partial contents are summarized, WAL summarization breaks:
the summarizer gets stuck at that point in the WAL stream and just
errors out.
To fix that, first make the startup process wait for WAL summarization
to catch up before renaming the file. Generally, this should be quick,
and if it's not, the user can shut off summarize_wal and try again.
To make this fix work, also teach the WAL summarizer that after a
promotion has occurred, no more WAL can appear on the previous
timeline: previously, the WAL summarizer wouldn't switch to the new
timeline until we actually started writing WAL there, but that meant
that when the startup process was waiting for the WAL summarizer, it
was waiting for an action that the summarizer wasn't yet prepared to
take.
In the process of fixing these bugs, I realized that the logic to wait
for WAL summarization to catch up was spread out in a way that made
it difficult to reuse properly, so this code refactors things to make
it easier.
Finally, add a test case that would have caught this bug and the
previously-fixed bug that WAL summarization sometimes needs to back up
when the timeline changes.

matters, a few call sites provide a hard-coded "false" as the

This commit moves the live_check variable to the global user_opts

Add path column to pg_backend_memory_contexts view
"path" provides a reliable method of determining the parent/child
relationships between memory contexts. Previously this could be done in
a non-reliable way by writing a recursive query and joining the "parent"
and "name" columns. This wasn't reliable as the names were not unique,
which could result in joining to the wrong parent.
To make this reliable, "path" stores an array of numerical identifiers
starting with the identifier for TopLevelMemoryContext. It contains an
element for each intermediate parent between that and the current context.
Incompatibility: Here we also adjust the "level" column to make it
1-based rather than 0-based. A 1-based level provides a convenient way
to access elements in the "path" array. e.g. path[level] gives the
identifier for the current context.
Identifiers are not stable across multiple evaluations of the view. In
an attempt to make these more stable for ad-hoc queries, the identifiers
are assigned breadth-first. Contexts closer to TopLevelMemoryContext
are less likely to change between queries and during queries.

pg_upgrade: Retrieve subscription count more efficiently.
Presently, pg_upgrade obtains the number of subscriptions in the
to-be-upgraded cluster by first querying pg_subscription in every
database for the number of subscriptions in only that database.
Then, in count_old_cluster_subscriptions(), it adds all the values
collected in the first step. This is expensive, especially when
there are many databases.
Fortunately, there is a better way to retrieve the subscription
count. Since pg_subscription is a shared catalog, we only need to
connect to a single database and query it once. This commit
modifies pg_upgrade to use that approach, which also allows us to
trim several lines of code. In passing, move the call to
get_db_subscription_count(), which has been renamed to
