XLOG_GIN_UPDATE_META_PAGE and XLOG_GIN_DELETE_LISTPAGE records were printed
with a list link field labeled as "blkno", which was confusing, especially
when the link was empty (InvalidBlockNumber). Print the metapage block
number instead, since that's what's actually being updated. We could
include the link values too as a separate field, but not clear it's worth
the trouble.
Back-patch to 8.4 where the dubious code was added.

The original coding of the syslogger had an arbitrary limit of 20 large
messages concurrently in progress, after which it would just punt and dump
message fragments to the output file separately. Our ambitions are a bit
higher than that now, so allow the data structure to expand as necessary.

dblink_exec leaked temporary database connections if any error occurred
after connection setup, for example
SELECT dblink_exec('...connect string...', 'select 1/0');
Add a PG_TRY block to ensure PQfinish gets done when it is needed.
(dblink_record_internal is on the hairy edge of needing similar treatment,
but seems not to be actively broken at the moment.)
Also, in 9.0 and up, only one of the three functions using tuplestore
return mode was properly checking that the query context would allow
a tuplestore result.

Combining the loop workspace with the record of already-processed objects
might have been a cute trick, but it behaves horridly if there are many
dependency loops to repair: the time spent in the first step of findLoop()
grows as O(N^2). Instead use a separate flag array indexed by dump ID,
which we can check in constant time. The length of the workspace array
is now never more than the actual length of a dependency chain, which
should be reasonably short in all cases of practical interest. The code
is noticeably easier to understand this way, too.
Per gripe from Mike Roest. Since this is a longstanding performance bug,
backpatch to all supported versions.

The loop that matched owned sequences to their owning tables required time
proportional to number of owned sequences times number of tables; although
this work was only expended in selective-dump situations, which is probably
why the issue wasn't recognized long since. Refactor slightly so that we
can perform this work after the index array for findTableByOid has been
set up, reducing the time to O(M log N).

The DBLINK_GET_CONN and DBLINK_GET_NAMED_CONN macros did not set the
surrounding function's conname variable, causing errors to be incorrectly
reported as having occurred on the "unnamed" connection in some cases.
This bug was actually visible in two cases in the regression tests,
but apparently whoever added those cases wasn't paying attention.
Noted by Kyotaro Horiguchi, though this is different from his proposed
patch.
Back-patch to 8.4; 8.3 does not have the same type of error reporting
so the patch is not relevant.

The COPY documentation says "COPY FROM matches the input against the null
string before removing backslashes". It is therefore reasonable to presume
that null markers like E'\\0' will work ... and they did, until someone put
the tests in the wrong order during microoptimization-driven rewrites.
Since then, we've been failing if the null marker is something that would
de-escape to an invalidly-encoded string. Since null markers generally
need to be something that can't appear in the data, this represents a
nontrivial loss of functionality; surprising nobody noticed it earlier.

For some reason, in the original coding of the PlaceHolderVar mechanism
I had supposed that PlaceHolderVars couldn't propagate into subqueries.
That is of course entirely possible. When it happens, we need to treat
an outer-level PlaceHolderVar much like an outer Var or Aggref, that is
SS_replace_correlation_vars() needs to replace the PlaceHolderVar with
a Param, and then when building the finished SubPlan we have to provide
the PlaceHolderVar expression as an actual parameter for the SubPlan.
The handling of the contained expression is a bit delicate but it can be
treated exactly like an Aggref's expression.
In addition to the missing logic in subselect.c, prepjointree.c was failing
to search subqueries for PlaceHolderVars that need their relids adjusted
during subquery pullup. It looks like everyplace else that touches
PlaceHolderVars got it right, though.
Per report from Mark Murawski. In 9.1 and HEAD, queries affected by this
oversight would fail with "ERROR: Upper-level PlaceHolderVar found where
not expected". But in 9.0 and 8.4, you'd silently get possibly-wrong
answers, since the value transmitted into the subquery wouldn't go to null
when it should.

An incorrect and entirely unnecessary "safety check" in exec_stmt_getdiag()
caused the code to treat an assignment to a variable with dno zero as a
no-op. Unfortunately, that's a perfectly valid dno. This has been broken
since GET DIAGNOSTICS was invented. It's not terribly surprising that the
bug went unnoticed for so long, since in most cases you probably wouldn't
use the function's first-created variable (normally its first parameter)
as a GET DIAGNOSTICS target. Nonetheless, it's broken. Per bug #6551
from Adam Buraczewski.

Since 9.0, removing lots of large objects in a single transaction risks
exceeding max_locks_per_transaction, because we merged large object removal
into the generic object-drop mechanism, which takes out an exclusive lock
on each object to be dropped. This creates a hazard for contrib/vacuumlo,
which has historically tried to drop all unreferenced large objects in one
transaction. There doesn't seem to be any correctness requirement to do it
that way, though; we only need to drop enough large objects per transaction
to amortize the commit costs.
To prevent a regression from pre-9.0 releases wherein vacuumlo worked just
fine, back-patch commits b69f2e36402aaa222ed03c1769b3de6d5be5f302 and
64c604898e812aa93c124c666e8709fff1b8dd26, which break vacuumlo's deletions
into multiple transactions with a user-controllable upper limit on the
number of objects dropped per transaction.

This was never intended to be allowed, and is blocked for an ordinary
CREATE TABLE, but CREATE TABLE AS slipped through the cracks. This
commit won't do anything to fix existing cases where this has loophole
has been exploited, but it still seems prudent to lock it down going
forward.

The problem was that ResetLatch was not being called in the walsender loop
if the connection was terminated, so WaitLatch never sleeps until the
terminated connection is detected. In the master-branch, this was already
fixed as a side-effect of some refactoring of the loop. This commit
backports that refactoring to 9.1. 9.0 does not have this bug, because we
didn't use latches back then.

When converting source files, pg_regress' inputdir and outputdir options were
ignored when computing the locations of the destination files. In consequence,
these options were effectively unusable when the regression inputs need to
be adjusted by pg_regress. This patch makes pg_regress put the converted files
in the same place that these options specify non-converted input or results
files are to be found. Backpatched to all live branches.

In commit 57664ed25e5dea117158a2e663c29e60b3546e1c I tried to fix a bug
reported by Teodor Sigaev by making non-simple-Var output columns distinct
(by wrapping their expressions with dummy PlaceHolderVar nodes). This did
not work too well. Commit b28ffd0fcc583c1811e5295279e7d4366c3cae6c fixed
some ensuing problems with matching to child indexes, but per a recent
report from Claus Stadler, constraint exclusion of UNION ALL subqueries was
still broken, because constant-simplification didn't handle the injected
PlaceHolderVars well either. On reflection, the original patch was quite
misguided: there is no reason to expect that EquivalenceClass child members
will be distinct. So instead of trying to make them so, we should ensure
that we can cope with the situation when they're not.
Accordingly, this patch reverts the code changes in the above-mentioned
commits (though the regression test cases they added stay). Instead, I've
added assorted defenses to make sure that duplicate EC child members don't
cause any problems. Teodor's original problem ("MergeAppend child's
targetlist doesn't match MergeAppend") is addressed more directly by
revising prepare_sort_from_pathkeys to let the parent MergeAppend's sort
list guide creation of each child's sort list.
In passing, get rid of add_sort_column; as far as I can tell, testing for
duplicate sort keys at this stage is dead code. Certainly it doesn't
trigger often enough to be worth expending cycles on in ordinary queries.
And keeping the test would've greatly complicated the new logic in
prepare_sort_from_pathkeys, because comparing pathkey list entries against
a previous output array requires that we not skip any entries in the list.
Back-patch to 9.1, like the previous patches. The only known issue in
this area that wasn't caused by the ill-advised previous patches was the
MergeAppend planning failure, which of course is not relevant before 9.1.
It's possible that we need some of the new defenses against duplicate child
EC entries in older branches, but until there's some clear evidence of that
I'm going to refrain from back-patching further.

Dave Malcolm of Red Hat is working on a static code analysis tool for
Python-related C code. It reported a number of problems in plpython,
most of which were failures to check for NULL results from object-creation
functions, so would only be an issue in very-low-memory situations.
Patch in HEAD and 9.1. We could go further back but it's not clear that
these issues are important enough to justify the work.

Due to an apparent thinko, when printing a table in expanded mode
(\x), space would be allocated for 1 slot plus 1 byte per line,
instead of 1 slot per line plus 1 slot for the NULL terminator. When
the line count is small, reading or writing the terminator would
therefore access memory beyond what was allocated.

Phil Sorber reported that a rewriting ALTER TABLE within an extension
update script failed, because it creates and then drops a placeholder
table; the drop was being disallowed because the table was marked as an
extension member. We could hack that specific case but it seems likely
that there might be related cases now or in the future, so the most
practical solution seems to be to create an exception to the general rule
that extension member objects can only be dropped by dropping the owning
extension. To wit: if the DROP is issued within the extension's own
creation or update scripts, we'll allow it, implicitly performing an
"ALTER EXTENSION DROP object" first. This will simplify cases such as
extension downgrade scripts anyway.
No docs change since we don't seem to have documented the idea that you
would need ALTER EXTENSION DROP for such an action to begin with.
Also, arrange for explicitly temporary tables to not get linked as
extension members in the first place, and the same for the magic
pg_temp_nnn schemas that are created to hold them. This prevents assorted
unpleasant results if an extension script creates a temp table: the forced
drop at session end would either fail or remove the entire extension, and
neither of those outcomes is desirable. Note that this doesn't fix the
ALTER TABLE scenario, since the placeholder table is not temp (unless the
table being rewritten is).
Back-patch to 9.1.

In backup.sgml, point out that you need to be using the logging collector
if you want to log messages from a failing archive_command script. (This
is an oversimplification, in that it will work without the collector as
long as you're not sending postmaster stderr to /dev/null; but it seems
like a good idea to encourage use of the collector to avoid problems
with multiple processes concurrently scribbling on one file.)
In config.sgml, do some wordsmithing of logging_collector discussion.

This fixes an oversight in commit 11cad29c91524aac1d0b61e0ea0357398ab79bf8,
which introduced MergeAppend plans. Before that happened, we never
particularly cared about the sort ordering of scans of inheritance child
relations, since appending their outputs together would destroy any
ordering anyway. But now it's important to be able to match child relation
sort orderings to those of the surrounding query. The original coding of
add_child_rel_equivalences skipped ec_has_const EquivalenceClasses, on the
originally-correct grounds that adding child expressions to them was
useless. The effect of this is that when a parent variable is equated to
a constant, we can't recognize that index columns on the equivalent child
variables are not sort-significant; that is, we can't recognize that a
child index on, say, (x, y) is able to generate output in "ORDER BY y"
order when there is a clause "WHERE x = constant". Adding child
expressions to the (x, constant) EquivalenceClass fixes this, without any
downside that I can see other than a few more planner cycles expended on
such queries.
Per recent gripe from Robert McGehee. Back-patch to 9.1 where MergeAppend
was introduced.

A prepared transaction can get new conflicts in and out after preparing, so
we cannot rely on the in- and out-flags stored in the statefile at prepare-
time. As a quick fix, make the conservative assumption that after a restart,
all prepared transactions are considered to have both in- and out-conflicts.
That can lead to unnecessary rollbacks after a crash, but that shouldn't be
a big problem in practice; you don't want prepared transactions to hang
around for a long time anyway.

In commit 4016bdef8aded77b4903c457050622a5a1815c16 I fixed a bunch of
ginxlog.c bugs having to do with not handling XLogReadBuffer failures
correctly. However, in ginRedoUpdateMetapage and ginRedoDeleteListPages,
I unaccountably thought that failure to read the metapage would be
impossible and just put in an elog(PANIC) call. This is of course wrong:
failure is exactly what will happen if the index got dropped (or rebuilt)
between creation of the WAL record and the crash we're trying to recover
from. I believe this explains Nicholas Wilson's recent report of these
errors getting reached.
Also, fix memory leak in forgetIncompleteSplit. This wasn't of much
concern when the code was written, but in a long-running standby server
page split records could be expected to accumulate indefinitely.
Back-patch to 8.4 --- before that, GIN didn't have a metapage.

Both libpq and the backend would truncate a common name extracted from a
certificate at 32 bytes. Replace that fixed-size buffer with dynamically
allocated string so that there is no hard limit. While at it, remove the
code for extracting peer_dn, which we weren't using for anything; and
don't bother to store peer_cn longer than we need it in libpq.
This limit was not so terribly unreasonable when the code was written,
because we weren't using the result for anything critical, just logging it.
But now that there are options for checking the common name against the
server host name (in libpq) or using it as the user's name (in the server),
this could result in undesirable failures. In the worst case it even seems
possible to spoof a server name or user name, if the correct name is
exactly 32 bytes and the attacker can persuade a trusted CA to issue a
certificate in which that string is a prefix of the certificate's common
name. (To exploit this for a server name, he'd also have to send the
connection astray via phony DNS data or some such.) The case that this is
a realistic security threat is a bit thin, but nonetheless we'll treat it
as one.
Back-patch to 8.4. Older releases contain the faulty code, but it's not
a security problem because the common name wasn't used for anything
interesting.

This check was overlooked when we added function execute permissions to the
system years ago. For an ordinary trigger function it's not a big deal,
since trigger functions execute with the permissions of the table owner,
so they couldn't do anything the user issuing the CREATE TRIGGER couldn't
have done anyway. However, if a trigger function is SECURITY DEFINER,
that is not the case. The lack of checking would allow another user to
install it on his own table and then invoke it with, essentially, forged
input data; which the trigger function is unlikely to realize, so it might
do something undesirable, for instance insert false entries in an audit log
table.

When "vacuuming" a single btree page by removing LP_DEAD tuples, we are not
actually within a vacuum operation, but rather in an ordinary insertion
process that could well be running concurrently with a vacuum. So clearing
the cycleid is incorrect, and could cause the concurrent vacuum to miss
removing tuples that it needs to remove. This is a longstanding bug
introduced by commit e6284649b9e30372b3990107a082bc7520325676 of
2006-07-25. I believe it explains Maxim Boguk's recent report of index
corruption, and probably some other previously unexplained reports.
In 9.0 and up this is a one-line fix; before that we need to introduce a
flag to tell _bt_delitems what to do.
