Add wait_for_subscription_sync for TAP tests.
The TAP tests for logical replication in src/test/subscription are using
the following code in many places to make sure that the subscription is
synchronized with the publisher:
$node_publisher->wait_for_catchup('tap_sub');
$node_subscriber->poll_query_until('postgres',
qq[SELECT count(1) = 0
FROM pg_subscription_rel
WHERE srsubstate NOT IN ('r', 's')]);
The new function wait_for_subscription_sync() can be used to replace the
above code. This eliminates duplicated code and makes it easier to write
future tests.

Be more wary about 32-bit integer overflow in pg_stat_statements.
We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with
multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files. It occurred to me that on
32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow
of calculations associated with the total query text size.
Address that with several changes:
1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX.
The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long"
is 64 bits. We still need overflow guards on its use, but
this helps.
2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to
more than MaxAllocHugeSize. If it got that big, qtext_load_file
would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it.
Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset,
and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t.
3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit
arithmetic on all platforms. It appears possible that under duress
those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false
conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which
could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table
insertion.
Per report from Bruno da Silva. I'm not convinced that these
issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's
contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first
place. But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense,
and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties.
(See also commit
8bbe4cbd9, which addressed some related bugs.
The second Discussion: link is the thread that led up to that.)
This issue is old, and is primarily a problem for old platforms,
so back-patch.

Change type "char"'s I/O format for non-ASCII characters.
Previously, a byte with the high bit set was just transmitted
as-is by charin() and charout(). This is problematic if the
database encoding is multibyte, because the result of charout()
won't be validly encoded, which breaks various stuff that
expects all text strings to be validly encoded. We've
previously decided to enforce encoding validity rather than try
to individually harden each place that might have a problem with
such strings, so it's time to do something about "char".
To fix, represent high-bit-set characters as \ooo (backslash
and three octal digits), following the ancient "escape" format
for bytea. charin() will continue to accept the old way as well,
though that is only reachable in single-byte encodings.
Add some test cases just so there is coverage for this code.
We'll otherwise leave this question undocumented as it was before,

Improve performance of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggreagtes have, since implemented in Postgres, been
executed by always performing a sort in nodeAgg.c to sort the tuples in
the current group into the correct order before calling the transition
function on the sorted tuples. This was not great as often there might be
an index that could have provided pre-sorted input and allowed the
transition functions to be called as the rows come in, rather than having
to store them in a tuplestore in order to sort them once all the tuples
for the group have arrived.
Here we change the planner so it requests a path with a sort order which
supports the most amount of ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregate functions and
add new code to the executor to allow it to support the processing of
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates where the tuples are already sorted in the
correct order.
Since there can be many ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates in any given query
level, it's very possible that we can't find an order that suits all of
these aggregates. The sort order that the planner chooses is simply the
one that suits the most aggregate functions. We take the most strictly
sorted variation of each order and see how many aggregate functions can
use that, then we try again with the order of the remaining aggregates to
see if another order would suit more aggregate functions. For example:
SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY a,b) ...
would request the sort order to be {a, b} because {a} is a subset of the
sort order of {a,b}, but;
SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY c) ...
would just pick a plan ordered by {a} (we give precedence to aggregates
which are earlier in the targetlist).
SELECT agg(a ORDER BY a),agg2(a ORDER BY b),agg3(a ORDER BY b) ...
would choose to order by {b} since two aggregates suit that vs just one
that requires input ordered by {a}.

Have ExecFindPartition cache the last found partition
Here we add code which detects when ExecFindPartition() continually finds
the same partition and add a caching layer to improve partition lookup
performance for such cases.
Both RANGE and LIST partitioned tables traditionally require a binary
search for the set of Datums that a partition needs to be found for. This
binary search is commonly visible in profiles when bulk loading into a
partitioned table. Here we aim to reduce the overhead of bulk-loading
into partitioned tables for cases where many consecutive tuples belong to
the same partition and make the performance of this operation closer to
what it is with a traditional non-partitioned table.
When we find the same partition 16 times in a row, the next search will
result in us simply just checking if the current set of values belongs to
the last found partition. For LIST partitioning we record the index into
the PartitionBoundInfo's datum array. This allows us to check if the
current Datum is the same as the Datum that was last looked up. This
means if any given LIST partition supports storing multiple different
Datum values, then the caching only works when we find the same value as
we did the last time. For RANGE partitioning we simply check if the given
Datums are in the same range as the previously found partition.
We store the details of the cached partition in PartitionDesc (i.e.
relcache) so that the cached values are maintained over multiple
statements.
No caching is done for HASH partitions. The majority of the cost in HASH
partition lookups are in the hashing function(s), which would also have to
be executed if we were to try to do caching for HASH partitioned tables.
Since most of the cost is already incurred, we just don't bother. We also
don't do any caching for LIST partitions when we continually find the
values being looked up belong to the DEFAULT partition. We've no
corresponding index in the PartitionBoundInfo's datum array for this case.
We also don't cache when we find the given values match to a LIST
partitioned table's NULL partition. This is so cheap that there's no
point in doing any caching for this. We also don't cache for a RANGE
partitioned table's DEFAULT partition.
There have been a number of different patches submitted to improve
partition lookups. Hou, Zhijie submitted a patch to detect when the value
belonging to the partition key column(s) were constant and added code to
cache the partition in that case. Amit Langote then implemented an idea
suggested by me to remember the last found partition and start to check if
the current values work for that partition. The final patch here was
written by me and was done by taking many of the ideas I liked from the
patches in the thread and redesigning other aspects.

In transformRowExpr(), check for too many columns in the row.
A RowExpr with more than MaxTupleAttributeNumber columns would fail at
execution anyway, since we cannot form a tuple datum with more than that
many columns. While heap_form_tuple() has a check for too many columns,
it emerges that there are some intermediate bits of code that don't
check and can be driven to failure with sufficiently many columns.
Checking this at parse time seems like the most appropriate place to
install a defense, since we already check SELECT list length there.
While at it, make the SELECT-list-length error use the same errcode
(TOO_MANY_COLUMNS) as heap_form_tuple does, rather than the generic
PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED.
Per bug #17561 from Egor Chindyaskin. The given test case crashes
in all supported branches (and probably a lot further back),

Use TRUNCATE to preserve relfilenode for pg_largeobject + index.
Commit
9a974cbcba005256a19991203583a94b4f9a21a9 arranged to preserve
the relfilenode of user tables across pg_upgrade, but failed to notice
that pg_upgrade treats pg_largeobject as a user table and thus it needs
the same treatment. Otherwise, large objects will appear to vanish
after a pg_upgrade.
Commit
d498e052b4b84ae21b3b68d5b3fda6ead65d1d4d fixed this problem
by teaching pg_dump to UPDATE pg_class.relfilenode for pg_largeobject
and its index. However, because an UPDATE on the catalog rows doesn't
change anything on disk, this can leave stray files behind in the new
cluster. They will normally be empty, but it's a little bit untidy.
Hence, this commit arranges to do the same thing using DDL. Specifically,
it makes TRUNCATE work for the pg_largeobject catalog when in
binary-upgrade mode, and it then uses that command in binary-upgrade
dumps as a way of setting pg_class.relfilenode for pg_largeobject and
its index. That way, the old files are removed from the new cluster.

Fix replay of create database records on standby
Crash recovery on standby may encounter missing directories
when replaying database-creation WAL records. Prior to this
patch, the standby would fail to recover in such a case;
however, the directories could be legitimately missing.
Consider the following sequence of commands:
CREATE DATABASE
DROP DATABASE
DROP TABLESPACE
If, after replaying the last WAL record and removing the
tablespace directory, the standby crashes and has to replay the
create database record again, crash recovery must be able to continue.
A fix for this problem was already attempted in
49d9cfc68bf4, but it
was reverted because of design issues. This new version is based
on Robert Haas' proposal: any missing tablespaces are created
during recovery before reaching consistency. Tablespaces
are created as real directories, and should be deleted
by later replay. CheckRecoveryConsistency ensures
they have disappeared.
The problems detected by this new code are reported as PANIC,
except when allow_in_place_tablespaces is set to ON, in which
case they are WARNING. Apart from making tests possible, this
gives users an escape hatch in case things don't go as planned.

Add overflow protection for block-related data in WAL records

Force immediate commit after CREATE DATABASE etc in extended protocol.
We have a few commands that "can't run in a transaction block",
meaning that if they complete their processing but then we fail
to COMMIT, we'll be left with inconsistent on-disk state.
However, the existing defenses for this are only watertight for
simple query protocol. In extended protocol, we didn't commit
until receiving a Sync message. Since the client is allowed to
issue another command instead of Sync, we're in trouble if that
command fails or is an explicit ROLLBACK. In any case, sitting
in an inconsistent state while waiting for a client message
that might not come seems pretty risky.
This case wasn't reachable via libpq before we introduced pipeline
mode, but it's always been an intended aspect of extended query
protocol, and likely there are other clients that could reach it
before.
To fix, set a flag in PreventInTransactionBlock that tells
exec_execute_message to force an immediate commit. This seems
to be the approach that does least damage to existing working
cases while still preventing the undesirable outcomes.
While here, add some documentation to protocol.sgml that explicitly

Reduce overhead of renaming archive status files.
Presently, archive status files are durably renamed from .ready to
.done to indicate that a file has been archived. Persisting this
rename to disk accounts for a significant amount of the overhead
associated with archiving. While durably renaming the file
prevents re-archiving in most cases, archive commands and libraries
must already gracefully handle attempts to re-archive the last
archived file after a crash (e.g., a crash immediately after
archive_command exits but before the server renames the status
file).
This change reduces the amount of overhead associated with
archiving by using rename() instead of durable_rename() to rename
the archive status files. As a consequence, the server is more
likely to attempt to re-archive files after a crash, but as noted

ERROR message referring to pg_hba.conf and not pg_ident.conf.
- When reading an external file with a relative path using '@' in
pg_ident.conf, the directory used to look at the file to load would be
the base directory of pg_hba.conf rather than the one of pg_ident.conf,
leading to errors in pg_ident_file_mappings inconsistent with what gets
loaded at startup when pg_ident.conf and pg_hba.conf are located in
different directories.
This error only impacted the SQL view pg_ident_file_mappings that uses a
logic new to v15 to fill the view with the parsed information, not the

Fix a few issues with REINDEX grammar
This addresses a couple of bugs in the REINDEX grammar, introduced by
83011ce:
- A name was never specified for DATABASE/SYSTEM, even if the query
included one. This caused such REINDEX queries to always work with any
object name, but we should complain if the object name specified does
not match the name of the database we are connected to. A test is added
for this case in the main regression test suite, provided by Álvaro.
- REINDEX SYSTEM CONCURRENTLY [name] was getting rejected in the
parser. Concurrent rebuilds are not supported for catalogs but the
error provided at execution time is more helpful for the user, and
allowing this flavor results in a simplification of the parsing logic.
- REINDEX DATABASE CONCURRENTLY was rebuilding the index in a
non-concurrent way, as the option was not being appended correctly in
the list of DefElems in ReindexStmt (REINDEX (CONCURRENTLY) DATABASE was
working fine. A test is added in the TAP tests of reindexdb for this
case, where we already have a REINDEX DATABASE CONCURRENTLY query
running on a small-ish instance. This relies on the work done in
2cbc3c1 for SYSTEM, but here we check if the OIDs of the index relations
match or not after the concurrent rebuild. Note that in order to get
this part to work, I had to tweak the tests so as the index OID and
names are saved separately. This change not affect the reliability or
of the coverage of the existing tests.
While on it, I have implemented a tweak in the grammar to reduce the
parsing by one branch, simplifying things even more.

Process session_preload_libraries within InitPostgres's transaction.
Previously we did this after InitPostgres, at a somewhat randomly chosen
place within PostgresMain. However, since commit
a0ffa885e doing this
outside a transaction can cause a crash, if we need to check permissions
while replacing a placeholder GUC. (Besides which, a preloaded library
could itself want to do database access within _PG_init.)
To avoid needing an additional transaction start/end in every session,
move the process_session_preload_libraries call to within InitPostgres's
transaction. That requires teaching the code not to call it when
InitPostgres is called from somewhere other than PostgresMain, since
we don't want session_preload_libraries to affect background workers.
The most future-proof solution here seems to be to add an additional
flag parameter to InitPostgres; fortunately, we're not yet very worried
about API stability for v15.
Doing this also exposed the fact that we're currently honoring
session_preload_libraries in walsenders, even those not connected to
any database. This seems, at minimum, a POLA violation: walsenders
are not interactive sessions. Let's stop doing that.

Remove useless arguments in ReadCheckpointRecord().
This commit removes two arguments "report" and "whichChkpt"

Commit

"whichChkpt" indicated where the specified checkpoint location
came from, pg_control or backup_label. This information was used
to report different error messages depending on where the invalid
checkpoint record came from, when it was found.
But ReadCheckpointRecord() doesn't need to do that because
its callers already do that and users can still identify where
the invalid checkpoint record came from, by reading such log messages.
Also when "whichChkpt" was 0, the word "primary checkpoint" was used

Close old gap in dependency checks for functions returning composite.
The dependency logic failed to register a column-level dependency
when a view or rule contains a reference to a specific column of
the result of a function-returning-composite. That meant you could
drop the column from the composite type, causing trouble for future
executions of the view. We've known about this for years, but never
summoned the energy to actually fix it, instead installing various
low-level defenses to prevent crashing on references to dropped columns.
We had to do that to plug the hole in stable branches, where there might
be pre-existing broken references; but let's fix the root cause today.
To do that, add some logic (borrowed from get_rte_attribute_is_dropped)
to find_expr_references_walker, to check whether a Var referencing an
RTE_FUNCTION RTE is referencing a column of a composite type, and if
so add the proper dependency.
However ... it seems mighty unwise to remove said low-level defenses,
since there could be other bugs now or in the future that allow
reaching them. By the same token, letting those defenses go untested
seems unwise. Hence, rather than just dropping the associated test
cases, hack them to continue working by the expedient of manually
dropping the pg_depend entries that this fix installs.

in stable branches, but it seems not too late for v15. (Since
we have already forced initdb for beta3, we can be sure that all

Fix ruleutils issues with dropped cols in functions-returning-composite.
Due to lack of concern for the case in the dependency code, it's
possible to drop a column of a composite type even though stored
queries have references to the dropped column via functions-in-FROM
that return the composite type. There are "soft" references,
namely FROM-clause aliases for such columns, and "hard" references,
that is actual Vars referring to them. The right fix for hard
references is to add dependencies preventing the drop; something
we've known for many years and not done (and this commit still doesn't
address it). A "soft" reference shouldn't prevent a drop though.
We've been around on this before (cf.
9b35ddce9,
2c4debbd0), but
nobody had noticed that the current behavior can result in dump/reload
failures, because ruleutils.c can print more column aliases than the
underlying composite type now has. So we need to rejigger the
column-alias-handling code to treat such columns as dropped and not
print aliases for them.
Rather than writing new code for this, I used expandRTE() which already
knows how to figure out which function result columns are dropped.
I'd initially thought maybe we could use expandRTE() in all cases, but
that fails for EXPLAIN's purposes, because the planner strips a lot of
RTE infrastructure that expandRTE() needs. So this patch just uses it
for unplanned function RTEs and otherwise does things the old way.
If there is a hard reference (Var), then removing the column alias
causes us to fail to print the Var, since there's no longer a name
to print. Failing seems less desirable than printing a made-up
name, so I made it print "?dropped?column?" instead.
Per report from Timo Stolz. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Allow users to skip logical replication of data having origin.
This patch adds a new SUBSCRIPTION parameter "origin". It specifies
whether the subscription will request the publisher to only send changes
that don't have an origin or send changes regardless of origin. Setting it
to "none" means that the subscription will request the publisher to only
send changes that have no origin associated. Setting it to "any" means
that the publisher sends changes regardless of their origin. The default
is "any".
Usage:
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION sub1 CONNECTION 'dbname=postgres port=9999'
PUBLICATION pub1 WITH (origin = none);
This can be used to avoid loops (infinite replication of the same data)
among replication nodes.
This feature allows filtering only the replication data originating from
WAL but for initial sync (initial copy of table data) we don't have such a
facility as we can only distinguish the data based on origin from WAL. As
a follow-up patch, we are planning to forbid the initial sync if the
origin is specified as none and we notice that the publication tables were
also replicated from other publishers to avoid duplicate data or loops.
We forbid to allow creating origin with names 'none' and 'any' to avoid
confusion with the same name options.

docs: Improve pg_settings_get_flags docs.
In the docs, the GUC flags that pg_settings_get_flags() reported were
listed using <simplelist>. But the list was treated as separate lines
in the existing function table and didn't look good. For better view,
this commit separates the list from the table entry for
pg_settings_get_flags() and adds the table for it at the bottom of
the existing function table.

Tweak a bit the new TAP tests of REINDEX DATABASE/SYSTEM
This renames the relation storing the relfilenode state into something
more generic as it also stores data for non-toast relations. A
restriction on the number of digits used for the OID number when
filtering toast relation names is removed, while on it, as there is no
need for it.
