TupleDescCopy needs to have the same effects as CreateTupleDescCopy in
that, since it doesn't copy constraints, it should clear the per-attribute
fields associated with them. Oversight in commit cc5f81366.
Since TupleDescCopy has already established the presumption that it
can just flat-copy the entire attribute array in one go, propagate
that approach into CreateTupleDescCopy and CreateTupleDescCopyConstr.
(I'm suspicious that this would lead to valgrind complaints if we
had any trailing padding in the struct, but we do not, and anyway
fixing that seems like a job for a separate commit.)
Add some better comments.

The original idea was that we could use an isNull-style bool array
directly as a GinNullCategory array. However, the existing code already
acknowledges that that doesn't really work, because of the possibility
that bool as currently defined can have arbitrary bit patterns for true
values. So it has to loop through the nullFlags array to set each bool
value to an acceptable value. But if we are looping through the whole
array anyway, we might as well build a proper GinNullCategory array
instead and abandon the type casting. That makes the code much safer in
case bool is ever changed to something else.

Patch allows to have different types of column and value stored in leaf tuples
of SP-GiST. The main application of feature is to transform complex column type
to simple indexed type or for truncating too long value, transformation could
be lossy. Simple example: polygons are converted to their bounding boxes,
this opclass follows.

currentCommandIdUsed is only used to skip redundant increments of the
command counter, and CommandCounterIncrement() is categorically denied
under parallelism anyway. Therefore, it's OK for
GetCurrentCommandId() to mark the counter value used, as long as it
happens in the leader, not a worker.
Prior to commit e9baa5e9fa147e00a2466ab2c40eb99c8a700824, the slightly
incorrect check didn't matter, but now it does. A test case added by
commit 1804284042e659e7d16904e7bbb0ad546394b6a3 uncovered the problem
by accident; it caused failures with force_parallel_mode=on/regress.

Generally, error recovery paths that need to do things like
LWLockReleaseAll and pgstat_report_wait_end also need to call
ConditionVariableCancelSleep, but AbortSubTransaction was missed.
Since subtransaction abort might destroy up the DSM segment that
contains the ConditionVariable stored in cv_sleep_target, this
can result in a crash for anything using condition variables.

Previously an assertion failure occurred when pg_stop_backup() for
non-exclusive backup was aborted while it's waiting for WAL files to
be archived. This assertion failure happened in do_pg_abort_backup()
which was called when a non-exclusive backup was canceled.
do_pg_abort_backup() assumes that there is at least one non-exclusive
backup running when it's called. But pg_stop_backup() can be canceled
even after it marks the end of non-exclusive backup (e.g.,
during waiting for WAL archiving). This broke the assumption that
do_pg_abort_backup() relies on, and which caused an assertion failure.
This commit changes do_pg_abort_backup() so that it does nothing
when non-exclusive backup has been already marked as completed.
That is, the asssumption is also changed, and do_pg_abort_backup()
now can handle even the case where it's called when there is
no running backup.
Backpatch to 9.6 where SQL-callable non-exclusive backup was added.

The previous commit has shown that the sanity checks around freezing
aren't strong enough. Strengthening them seems especially important
because the existance of the bug has caused corruption that we don't
want to make even worse during future vacuum cycles.
The errors are emitted with ereport rather than elog, despite being
"should never happen" messages, so a proper error code is emitted. To
avoid superflous translations, mark messages as internal.

This patch makes a number of interrelated changes to reduce the overhead
involved in creating/deleting memory contexts. The key ideas are:
* Include the AllocSetContext header of an aset.c context in its first
malloc request, rather than allocating it separately in TopMemoryContext.
This means that we now always create an initial or "keeper" block in an
aset, even if it never receives any allocation requests.
* Create freelists in which we can save and recycle recently-destroyed
asets (this idea is due to Robert Haas).
* In the common case where the name of a context is a constant string,
just store a pointer to it in the context header, rather than copying
the string.
The first change eliminates a palloc/pfree cycle per context, and
also avoids bloat in TopMemoryContext, at the price that creating
a context now involves a malloc/free cycle even if the context never
receives any allocations. That would be a loser for some common
usage patterns, but recycling short-lived contexts via the freelist
eliminates that pain.
Avoiding copying constant strings not only saves strlen() and strcpy()
overhead, but is an essential part of the freelist optimization because
it makes the context header size constant. Currently we make no
attempt to use the freelist for contexts with non-constant names.
(Perhaps someday we'll need to think harder about that, but in current
usage, most contexts with custom names are long-lived anyway.)
The freelist management in this initial commit is pretty simplistic,
and we might want to refine it later --- but in common workloads that
will never matter because the freelists will never get full anyway.
To create a context with a non-constant name, one is now required to
call AllocSetContextCreateExtended and specify the MEMCONTEXT_COPY_NAME
option. AllocSetContextCreate becomes a wrapper macro, and it includes
a test that will complain about non-string-literal context name
parameters on gcc and similar compilers.
An unfortunate side effect of making AllocSetContextCreate a macro is
that one is now *required* to use the size parameter abstraction macros
(ALLOCSET_DEFAULT_SIZES and friends) with it; the pre-9.6 habit of
writing out individual size parameters no longer works unless you
switch to AllocSetContextCreateExtended.
Internally to the memory-context-related modules, the context creation
APIs are simplified, removing the rather baroque original design whereby
a context-type module called mcxt.c which then called back into the
context-type module. That saved a bit of code duplication, but not much,
and it prevented context-type modules from exercising control over the
allocation of context headers.
In passing, I converted the test-and-elog validation of aset size
parameters into Asserts to save a few more cycles. The original thought
was that callers might compute size parameters on the fly, but in practice
nobody does that, so it's useless to expend cycles on checking those
numbers in production builds.
Also, mark the memory context method-pointer structs "const",
just for cleanliness.

do_pg_start_backup() expects its callers to pass in an open DIR pointer
for the pg_tblspc directory, but there's no apparent advantage in that.
It complicates the callers without adding any flexibility, and there's no
robustness advantage, since we surely have to be prepared for errors during
the scan of pg_tblspc anyway. In fact, by holding an extra kernel resource
during operations like the preliminary checkpoint, we might be making
things a fraction more failure-prone not less. Hence, remove that argument
and open the directory just for the duration of the actual scan.

This patch fixes a couple of low-probability bugs that could lead to
reporting an irrelevant errno value (and hence possibly a wrong SQLSTATE)
concerning directory-open or file-open failures. It also fixes places
where we took shortcuts in reporting such errors, either by using elog
instead of ereport or by using ereport but forgetting to specify an
errcode. And it eliminates a lot of just plain redundant error-handling
code.
In service of all this, export fd.c's formerly-static function
ReadDirExtended, so that external callers can make use of the coding
pattern
dir = AllocateDir(path);
while ((de = ReadDirExtended(dir, path, LOG)) != NULL)
if they'd like to treat directory-open failures as mere LOG conditions
rather than errors. Also fix FreeDir to be a no-op if we reach it
with dir == NULL, as such a coding pattern would cause.
Then, remove code at many call sites that was throwing an error or log
message for AllocateDir failure, as ReadDir or ReadDirExtended can handle
that job just fine. Aside from being a net code savings, this gets rid of
a lot of not-quite-up-to-snuff reports, as mentioned above. (In some
places these changes result in replacing a custom error message such as
"could not open tablespace directory" with more generic wording "could not
open directory", but it was agreed that the custom wording buys little as
long as we report the directory name.) In some other call sites where we
can't just remove code, change the error reports to be fully
project-style-compliant.
Also reorder code in restoreTwoPhaseData that was acquiring a lock
between AllocateDir and ReadDir; in the unlikely but surely not
impossible case that LWLockAcquire changes errno, AllocateDir failures
would be misreported. There is no great value in opening the directory
before acquiring TwoPhaseStateLock, so just do it in the other order.
Also fix CheckXLogRemoved to guarantee that it preserves errno,
as quite a number of call sites are implicitly assuming. (Again,
it's unlikely but I think not impossible that errno could change
during a SpinLockAcquire. If so, this function was broken for its
own purposes as well as breaking callers.)
And change a few places that were using not-per-project-style messages,
such as "could not read directory" when "could not open directory" is
more correct.
Back-patch the exporting of ReadDirExtended, in case we have occasion
to back-patch some fix that makes use of it; it's not needed right now
but surely making it global is pretty harmless. Also back-patch the
restoreTwoPhaseData and CheckXLogRemoved fixes. The rest of this is
essentially cosmetic and need not get back-patched.

Commit d4663350646ca0c069a36d906155a0f7e3372eb7 changed things so
that shm_toc_lookup would fail with an error rather than silently
returning NULL in the hope that such failures would be reported
in a useful way rather than via a system crash. However, it
overlooked the fact that the lookup of PARALLEL_KEY_ERROR_QUEUE
in ReinitializeParallelDSM is expected to fail when no DSM segment
was created in the first place; in that case, we end up with a
backend-private memory segment that still contains an entry for
PARALLEL_KEY_FIXED but no others. Consequently a benign failure
to initialize parallelism can escalate into an elog(ERROR);

Originally, we palloc'd this buffer just barely big enough to hold the
largest xlog backup block seen so far. We now MAXALIGN the palloc size.
The original coding could result in many repeated palloc cycles, in the
worst case where we see a series ofgradually larger xlog records. We
ameliorate that similarly to 8735978e7aebfbc499843630131c18d1f7346c79
by imposing a minimum buffer size of BLCKSZ.

Originally, we palloc'd this buffer just barely big enough to hold the
largest xlog record seen so far. It turns out that that can result in
valgrind complaints, because some compilers will emit code that assumes
it can safely fetch padding bytes at the end of a struct, and those
padding bytes were unallocated so far as aset.c was concerned. We can
fix that by MAXALIGN'ing the palloc request size, ensuring that it is big
enough to include any possible padding that might've been omitted from
the on-disk record.
An additional objection to the original coding is that it could result in
many repeated palloc cycles, in the worst case where we see a series of
gradually larger xlog records. We can ameliorate that cheaply by
imposing a minimum buffer size that's large enough for most xlog records.
BLCKSZ/2 was chosen after a bit of discussion.
In passing, remove an obsolete comment in struct xl_heap_new_cid that the
combocid field is free due to alignment considerations. Perhaps that was
true at some point, but it's not now.

The pending list must (for correctness) always be cleaned up by vacuum, and
should (for the avoidance of surprising behavior) always be cleaned up
by an explicit call to gin_clean_pending_list, but cleanup is optional
when inserting. The old logic got this backward: cleanup was forced
if (stats == NULL), but that's going to be *false* when vacuuming and
*true* for inserts.

The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most
parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used
in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings.
The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so
those are left as is when using those APIs.
In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and
keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts.

btree, hash, and bloom indexes all set up their metapages in standard
format (that is, with pd_lower and pd_upper correctly delimiting the
unused area); but they mostly didn't inform the xlog routines of this.
When calling log_newpage[_buffer], this is bad because it loses the
opportunity to compress unused data out of the WAL record. When
calling XLogRegisterBuffer, it's not such a performance problem because
all of these call sites also use REGBUF_WILL_INIT, preventing an FPI
image from being written. But it's still a good idea to provide the
flag when relevant, because that aids WAL consistency checking.
This completes the project of getting all the in-core index AMs to
handle their metapage WAL operations similarly.

If a process is extending a table concurrently with some BRIN
summarization process, it is possible for the latter to miss pages added
by the former because the number of pages is computed ahead of time.
Fix by determining a fresh relation size after inserting the placeholder
tuple: any process that further extends the table concurrently will
update the placeholder tuple, while previous pages will be processed by
the heap scan.

Previously, these index types left the pd_lower field set to the default
SizeOfPageHeaderData, which is really a lie because it ought to point past
whatever space is being used for metadata. The coding accidentally failed
to fail because we never told xlog.c that the metapage is of standard
format --- but that's not very good, because it impedes WAL consistency
checking, and in some cases prevents compression of full-page images.
To fix, ensure that we set pd_lower correctly, not only when creating a
metapage but whenever we write it out (these apparently redundant steps are
needed to cope with pg_upgrade'd indexes that don't yet contain the right
value). This allows telling xlog.c that the page is of standard format.
The WAL consistency check mask functions are made to mask only if pd_lower
appears valid, which I think is likely unnecessary complication, since
any metapage appearing in a v11 WAL stream should contain valid pd_lower.
But it doesn't cost much to be paranoid.

In some cases the BRIN code releases lock on an index page, and later
re-acquires lock and tries to check that the tuple it was working on is
still there. That check was a couple bricks shy of a load. It didn't
consider that the page might have turned into a "revmap" page. (The
samepage code path doesn't call brin_getinsertbuffer(), so it isn't
protected by the checks for revmap status there.) It also didn't check
whether the tuple offset was now off the end of the linepointer array.
Since commit 24992c6db the latter case is pretty common, but at least
in principle it could have occurred before that. The net result is
that concurrent updates of a BRIN index could fail with errors like
"invalid index offnum" or "inconsistent range map".
Per report from Tomas Vondra. Back-patch to 9.5, since this code is
substantially the same in all versions containing BRIN.

There's three categories of changes leading to better performance:
- Splitting the per-attribute part of SendRowDescriptionMessage into a
v2 and a v3 version allows avoiding branches for every attribute.
- Preallocating the size of the buffer to be big enough for all
attributes and then using pq_write* avoids unnecessary buffer
size checks & resizing.
- Reusing a persistently allocated StringInfo for all
SendRowDescriptionMessage() invocations avoids repeated allocations
& reallocations.

changed. That advice was only inconsistently followed, however, and
on reflection it seems like unnecessary overhead. We don't bother
with such a convention for transient CurrentMemoryContext changes,
on the grounds that any (sub)transaction abort will start out by
resetting CurrentMemoryContext to what it wants. But the same is
true of CurrentResourceOwner, so there seems no need to treat it
differently.
Hence, remove PG_TRY blocks that exist only to restore CurrentResourceOwner
before re-throwing the error. There are a couple of places that restore
it along with some other actions, and I left those alone; the restore is
probably unnecessary but no noticeable gain will result from removing it.

Sloppy loop coding in set_status_by_pages() resulted in fetching one array
element more than it should from the subxids[] array. The odds of this
resulting in SIGSEGV are pretty small, but we've certainly seen that happen
with similar mistakes elsewhere. While at it, we can get rid of an extra
TransactionIdToPage() calculation per loop.
Per report from David Binderman. Back-patch to all supported branches,
since this code is quite old.

When some tuple versions in an update chain are frozen due to them being
older than freeze_min_age, the xmax/xmin trail can become broken. This
breaks HOT (and probably other things). A subsequent VACUUM can break
things in more serious ways, such as leaving orphan heap-only tuples
whose root HOT redirect items were removed. This can be seen because
index creation (or REINDEX) complain like
ERROR: XX000: failed to find parent tuple for heap-only tuple at (0,7) in table "t"
Because of relfrozenxid contraints, we cannot avoid the freezing of the
early tuples, so we must cope with the results: whenever we see an Xmin
of FrozenTransactionId, consider it a match for whatever the previous
Xmax value was.
This problem seems to have appeared in 9.3 with multixact changes,
though strictly speaking it seems unrelated.
Since 9.4 we have commit 37484ad2a "Change the way we mark tuples as
frozen", so the fix is simple: just compare the raw Xmin (still stored
in the tuple header, since freezing merely set an infomask bit) to the
Xmax. But in 9.3 we rewrite the Xmin value to FrozenTransactionId, so
the original value is lost and we have nothing to compare the Xmax with.
To cope with that case we need to compare the Xmin with FrozenXid,
assume it's a match, and hope for the best. Sadly, since you can
pg_upgrade a 9.3 instance containing half-frozen pages to newer
releases, we need to keep the old check in newer versions too, which
seems a bit brittle; I hope we can somehow get rid of that.
I didn't optimize the new function for performance. The new coding is
probably a bit slower than before, since there is a function call rather
than a straight comparison, but I'd rather have it work correctly than
be fast but wrong.
This is a followup after 20b655224249 fixed a few related problems.
Apparently, in 9.6 and up there are more ways to get into trouble, but
in 9.3 - 9.5 I cannot reproduce a problem anymore with this patch, so
there must be a separate bug.

Haribabu Kommi, reviewed by Dilip Kumar and Rafia Sabih. Various
cosmetic changes by me to explain why this appears to be safe but
allowing inserts in parallel mode in general wouldn't be. Also, I
removed the REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW case from Haribabu's patch,
since I'm not convinced that case is OK, and hacked on the
documentation somewhat.

Add bgw_type field to background worker structure. It is intended to be
set to the same value for all workers of the same type, so they can be
grouped in pg_stat_activity, for example.
The backend_type column in pg_stat_activity now shows bgw_type for a
background worker. The ps listing also no longer calls out that a
process is a background worker but just show the bgw_type. That way,
being a background worker is more of an implementation detail now that
is not shown to the user. However, most log messages still refer to
'background worker "%s"'; otherwise constructing sensible and
translatable log messages would become tricky.

Vacuum calls page-level HOT prune to remove dead HOT tuples before doing
liveness checks (HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum) on the remaining tuples. But
concurrent transaction commit/abort may turn DEAD some of the HOT tuples
that survived the prune, before HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum tests them.
This happens to activate the code that decides to freeze the tuple ...
which resuscitates it, duplicating data.
(This is especially bad if there's any unique constraints, because those
are now internally violated due to the duplicate entries, though you
won't know until you try to REINDEX or dump/restore the table.)
One possible fix would be to simply skip doing anything to the tuple,
and hope that the next HOT prune would remove it. But there is a
problem: if the tuple is older than freeze horizon, this would leave an
unfrozen XID behind, and if no HOT prune happens to clean it up before
the containing pg_clog segment is truncated away, it'd later cause an
error when the XID is looked up.
Fix the problem by having the tuple freezing routines cope with the
situation: don't freeze the tuple (and keep it dead). In the cases that
the XID is older than the freeze age, set the HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED flag
so that there is no need to look up the XID in pg_clog later on.
An isolation test is included, authored by Michael Paquier, loosely
based on Daniel Wood's original reproducer. It only tests one
particular scenario, though, not all the possible ways for this problem
to surface; it be good to have a more reliable way to test this more
fully, but it'd require more work.
In message https://postgr.es/m/20170911140103.5akxptyrwgpc25bw@alvherre.pgsql
I outlined another test case (more closely matching Dan Wood's) that
exposed a few more ways for the problem to occur.
Backpatch all the way back to 9.3, where this problem was introduced by
multixact juggling. In branches 9.3 and 9.4, this includes a backpatch
of commit e5ff9fefcd50 (of 9.5 era), since the original is not
correctable without matching the coding pattern in 9.5 up.

This reverts commit 15bc038f9, along with the followon commits 1635e80d3
and 984c92074 that tried to clean up the problems exposed by bug #14825.
The result was incomplete because it failed to address parallel-query
requirements. With 10.0 release so close upon us, now does not seem like
the time to be adding more code to fix that. I hope we can un-revert this
code and add the missing parallel query support during the v11 cycle.
Back-patch to v10.

Commit 15bc038f9 allowed ALTER TYPE ADD VALUE to be executed inside
transaction blocks, by disallowing the use of the added value later
in the same transaction, except under limited circumstances. However,
the test for "limited circumstances" was heuristic and could reject
references to enum values that were created during CREATE TYPE AS ENUM,
not just later. This breaks the use-case of restoring pg_dump scripts
in a single transaction, as reported in bug #14825 from Balazs Szilfai.
We can improve this by keeping a "blacklist" table of enum value OIDs
created by ALTER TYPE ADD VALUE during the current transaction. Any
visible-but-uncommitted value whose OID is not in the blacklist must
have been created by CREATE TYPE AS ENUM, and can be used safely
because it could not have a lifespan shorter than its parent enum type.
This change also removes the restriction that a renamed enum value
can't be used before being committed (unless it was on the blacklist).
Andrew Dunstan, with cosmetic improvements by me.
Back-patch to v10.

This was intended as infrastructure for weakening VACUUM's locking
requirements, similar to what was done for btree indexes in commit
2ed5b87f96d473962ec5230fd820abfeaccb2069. However, for hash indexes,
it seems that the improvements which are possible are actually
extremely marginal. Furthermore, performing the LSN cross-check will
end up skipping cleanup far more often than is necessary; we only care
about page modifications due to a VACUUM, but the LSN check will fail
if ANY modification has occurred. So, rather than pressing forward
with that "optimization", just rip the LSN field out.

The file handling functions from fd.c were called with a diverse mix of
notations for the file permissions when they were opening new files.
Almost all files created by the server should have the same permissions
set. So change the API so that e.g. OpenTransientFile() automatically
uses the standard permissions set, and OpenTransientFilePerm() is a new
function that takes an explicit permissions set for the few cases where
it is needed. This also saves an unnecessary argument for call sites
that are just opening an existing file.
While we're reviewing these APIs, get rid of the FileName typedef and
use the standard const char * for the file name and mode_t for the file
mode. This makes these functions match other file handling functions
and removes an unnecessary layer of mysteriousness. We can also get rid
of a few casts that way.

Commit 09cb5c0e7d6fbc9dee26dc429e4fc0f2a88e5272 added a similar
optimization to btree back in 2006, but nobody bothered to implement
the same thing for hash indexes, probably because they weren't
WAL-logged and had lots of other performance problems as well. As
with the corresponding btree case, this eliminates the problem of
potentially needing to refind our position within the page, and cuts
down on pin/unpin traffic as well.

For performance reasons a larger segment size than the default 16MB
can be useful. A larger segment size has two main benefits: Firstly,
in setups using archiving, it makes it easier to write scripts that
can keep up with higher amounts of WAL, secondly, the WAL has to be
written and synced to disk less frequently.
But at the same time large segment size are disadvantageous for
smaller databases. So far the segment size had to be configured at
compile time, often making it unrealistic to choose one fitting to a
particularly load. Therefore change it to a initdb time setting.
This includes a breaking changes to the xlogreader.h API, which now
requires the current segment size to be configured. For that and
similar reasons a number of binaries had to be taught how to recognize
the current segment size.
