These were evidently introduced by yesterday's commit 9cca11c91,
which perhaps needs more review than it got.
Per report from Andreas Seltenreich and additional examination
of nearby code.

This introduces a numeric sum accumulator, which performs better than
repeatedly calling add_var(). The performance comes from using wider digits
and delaying carry propagation, tallying positive and negative values
separately, and avoiding a round of palloc/pfree on every value. This
speeds up SUM(), as well as other standard aggregates like AVG() and
STDDEV() that also calculate a sum internally.

NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision
and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had
something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value,
but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed,
any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format;
which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000.
Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit
on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was
especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as
long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to
avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what
is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code.
Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the
number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore
hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format
limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want.
In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what
the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches.
Per gripe from Aravind Kumar. Back-patch to all supported branches,
since they all contain the documentation claim about allowed range of
NUMERIC (cf commit cabf5d84b).

A deserialize function's result is short-lived data during partial
aggregation, since we're just going to pass it to the combine function
and then it's of no use anymore. However, the built-in deserialize
functions allocated their results in the aggregate state context,
resulting in a query-lifespan memory leak. It's probably not possible for
this to amount to anything much at present, since the number of leaked
results would only be the number of worker processes. But it might become
a problem in future. To fix, don't use the same convenience subroutine for
setting up results that the aggregate transition functions use.

The original specification for this called for the deserialization function
to have signature "deserialize(serialtype) returns transtype", which is a
security violation if transtype is INTERNAL (which it always would be in
practice) and serialtype is not (which ditto). The patch blithely overrode
the opr_sanity check for that, which was sloppy-enough work in itself,
but the indisputable reason this cannot be allowed to stand is that CREATE
FUNCTION will reject such a signature and thus it'd be impossible for
extensions to create parallelizable aggregates.
The minimum fix to make the signature type-safe is to add a second, dummy
argument of type INTERNAL. But to lock it down a bit more and make misuse
of INTERNAL-accepting functions less likely, let's get rid of the ability
to specify a "serialtype" for an aggregate and just say that the only
useful serialtype is BYTEA --- which, in practice, is the only interesting
value anyway, due to the usefulness of the send/recv infrastructure for
this purpose. That means we only have to allow "serialize(internal)
returns bytea" and "deserialize(bytea, internal) returns internal" as
the signatures for these support functions.
In passing fix bogus signature of int4_avg_combine, which I found thanks
to adding an opr_sanity check on combinefunc signatures.
catversion bump due to removing pg_aggregate.aggserialtype and adjusting
signatures of assorted built-in functions.

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.

The integer overflow situation in div_var_fast() is a great deal more
complicated than the pre-existing comments would suggest. Moreover, the
comments were also flat out incorrect as to the precise statement of the
maxdiv loop invariant. Upon clarifying that, it becomes apparent that the
way in which we updated maxdiv after a carry propagation pass was overly
slow, complex, and conservative: we can just reset it to one, which is much
easier and also reduces the number of times carry propagation occurs.
Fix that and improve the relevant comments.
Since this is mostly a comment fix, with only a rather marginal performance
boost, no need for back-patch.

div_var_fast() postpones propagating carries in the same way as mul_var(),
so it has the same corner-case overflow risk we fixed in 246693e5ae8a36f0,
namely that the size of the carries has to be accounted for when setting
the threshold for executing a carry propagation step. We've not devised
a test case illustrating the brokenness, but the required fix seems clear
enough. Like the previous fix, back-patch to all active branches.

Set the "rscales" for intermediate-result calculations to ensure that
suitable numbers of significant digits are maintained throughout. The
previous coding hadn't thought this through in any detail, and as a result
could deliver results with many inaccurate digits, or in the worst cases
even fail with divide-by-zero errors as a result of losing all nonzero
digits of intermediate results.
In exp_var(), get rid entirely of the logic that separated the calculation
into integer and fractional parts: that was neither accurate nor
particularly fast. The existing range-reduction method of dividing by 2^n
can be applied across the full input range instead of only 0..1, as long as
we are careful to set an appropriate rscale for each step.
Also fix the logic in mul_var() for shortening the calculation when the
caller asks for fewer output digits than an exact calculation would
require. This bug doesn't affect simple multiplications since that code
path asks for an exact result, but it does contribute to accuracy issues
in the transcendental math functions.
In passing, improve performance of mul_var() a bit by forcing the shorter
input to be on the left, thus reducing the number of iterations of the
outer loop and probably also reducing the number of carry-propagation
steps needed.
This is arguably a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field complaints,
it does not seem worth the risk of back-patching.

mul_var() postpones propagating carries until it risks overflow in its
internal digit array. However, the logic failed to account for the
possibility of overflow in the carry propagation step, allowing wrong
results to be generated in corner cases. We must slightly reduce the
when-to-propagate-carries threshold to avoid that.
Discovered and fixed by Dean Rasheed, with small adjustments by me.
This has been wrong since commit d72f6c75038d8d37e64a29a04b911f728044d83b,

As in commit 0a52d378b03b7d5a, avoid doing something that has undefined
results according to the C standard, even though in practice there does
not seem to be any problem with it.
This fixes two places in numeric.c that demonstrably could call memcpy()
with such arguments. I looked through that file and didn't see any other
places with similar hazards; this is not to claim that there are not such
places in other files.
Per report from Piotr Stefaniak. Back-patch to 9.5 which is where the
previous commit was added. We're more or less setting a precedent that
we will not worry about this type of issue in pre-9.5 branches unless
someone demonstrates a problem in the field.

On platforms where we support 128bit integers, use them to implement
faster transition functions for sum(int8), avg(int8),
var_*(int2/int4),stdev_*(int2/int4). Where not supported continue to use
numeric as a transition type.
In some synthetic benchmarks this has been shown to provide significant
speedups.

Commit 145343534c153d1e6c3cff1fa1855787684d9a38 arranged to store numeric
NaN values as short-header numerics, but the field access macros did not
get the memo: they thought only "SHORT" numerics have short headers.
Most of the time this makes no difference because we don't access the
weight or dscale of a NaN; but numeric_send does that. As pointed out
by Andrew Gierth, this led to fetching uninitialized bytes.
AFAICS this could not have any worse consequences than that; in particular,
an unaligned stored numeric would have been detoasted by PG_GETARG_NUMERIC,
so that there's no risk of a fetch off the end of memory. Still, the code
is wrong on its own terms, and it's not hard to foresee future changes that
might expose us to real risks. So back-patch to all affected branches.

In generate_series_step_numeric(), the variables "start_num"
and "stop_num" may be potentially freed until the next call.
So they should be put in the location which can survive across calls.
But previously they were not, and which could cause incorrect
behavior of generate_series(numeric, numeric). This commit fixes
this problem by copying them on multi_call_memory_ctx.

We were not checking to see if the supplied dscale was valid for the given
digit array when receiving binary-format numeric values. While dscale can
validly be more than the number of nonzero fractional digits, it shouldn't
be less; that case causes fractional digits to be hidden on display even
though they're there and participate in arithmetic.
Bug #12053 from Tommaso Sala indicates that there's at least one broken
client library out there that sometimes supplies an incorrect dscale value,
leading to strange behavior. This suggests that simply throwing an error
might not be the best response; it would lead to failures in applications
that might seem to be working fine today. What seems the least risky fix
is to truncate away any digits that would be hidden by dscale. This
preserves the existing behavior in terms of what will be printed for the
transmitted value, while preventing subsequent arithmetic from producing
results inconsistent with that.
In passing, throw a specific error for the case of dscale being outside
the range that will fit into a numeric's header. Before you got "value
overflows numeric format", which is a bit misleading.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

The default JSONB GIN opclass (jsonb_ops) converts numeric data values
to strings for storage in the index. It must ensure that numeric values
that would compare equal (such as 12 and 12.00) produce identical strings,
else index searches would have behavior different from regular JSONB
comparisons. Unfortunately the function charged with doing this was
completely wrong: it could reduce distinct numeric values to the same
string, or reduce equivalent numeric values to different strings. The
former type of error would only lead to search inefficiency, but the
latter type of error would cause index entries that should be found by
a search to not be found.
Repairing this bug therefore means that it will be necessary for 9.4 beta
testers to reindex GIN jsonb_ops indexes, if they care about getting
correct results from index searches involving numeric data values within
the comparison JSONB object.

The code for raising a NUMERIC value to an integer power wasn't very
careful about large powers. It got an outright wrong answer for an
exponent of INT_MIN, due to failure to consider overflow of the Abs(exp)
operation; which is fixable by using an unsigned rather than signed
exponent value after that point. Also, even though the number of
iterations of the power-computation loop is pretty limited, it's easy for
the repeated squarings to result in ridiculously enormous intermediate
values, which can take unreasonable amounts of time/memory to process,
or even overflow the internal "weight" field and so produce a wrong answer.
We can forestall misbehaviors of that sort by bailing out as soon as the
weight value exceeds what will fit in int16, since then the final answer
must overflow (if exp > 0) or underflow (if exp < 0) the packed numeric
format.

The new format accepts exactly the same data as the json type. However, it is
stored in a format that does not require reparsing the orgiginal text in order
to process it, making it much more suitable for indexing and other operations.
Insignificant whitespace is discarded, and the order of object keys is not
preserved. Neither are duplicate object keys kept - the later value for a given
key is the only one stored.
The new type has all the functions and operators that the json type has,
with the exception of the json generation functions (to_json, json_agg etc.)
and with identical semantics. In addition, there are operator classes for
hash and btree indexing, and two classes for GIN indexing, that have no
equivalent in the json type.
This feature grew out of previous work by Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, which
was intended to provide similar facilities to a nested hstore type, but which
in the end proved to have some significant compatibility issues.

This patch improves performance of most built-in aggregates that formerly
used a NUMERIC or NUMERIC array as their transition type; this includes
not only aggregates on numeric inputs, but some aggregates on integer
inputs where overflow of an int8 value is a possibility. The code now
uses a special-purpose data structure to avoid array construction and
deconstruction overhead, as well as packing and unpacking overhead for
numeric values.
These aggregates' transition type is now declared as INTERNAL, since
it doesn't correspond to any SQL data type. To keep the planner from
thinking that that means a lot of storage will be used, we make use
of the just-added pg_aggregate.aggtransspace feature. The space estimate
is set to 128 bytes, which is at least in the right ballpark.

In many functions, a NumericVar was initialized from an input Numeric, to be
passed as input to a calculation function. When the NumericVar is not
modified, the digits array of the NumericVar can point directly to the digits
array in the original Numeric, and we can avoid a palloc() and memcpy(). Add
init_var_from_num() function to initialize a var like that.
Remove dscale argument from get_str_from_var(), as all the callers just
passed the dscale of the variable. That means that the rounding it used to
do was not actually necessary, and get_str_from_var() no longer scribbles on
its input. That makes it safer in general, and allows us to use the new
init_var_from_num() function in e.g numeric_out().
Also modified numericvar_to_int8() to no scribble on its input either. It
creates a temporary copy to avoid that. To compensate, the callers no longer
need to create a temporary copy, so the net # of pallocs is the same, but this
is nicer.
In the passing, use a constant for the number 10 in get_str_from_var_sci(),
when calculating 10^exponent. Saves a palloc() and some cycles to convert
integer 10 to numeric.

Fix loss of previous expression-simplification work when a transform
function fires: we must not simply revert to untransformed input tree.
Instead build a dummy FuncExpr node to pass to the transform function.
This has the additional advantage of providing a simpler, more uniform

Move documentation to a somewhat less buried spot, relocate some
poorly-placed code, be more wary of null constants and invalid typmod
values, add an opr_sanity check on protransform function signatures,
and some other minor cosmetic adjustments.
Note: although this patch touches pg_proc.h, no need for catversion
