archive_command) as soon as possible, namely just before issuing a new call
of archive_command, even when there is a backlog of files to be archived.
The original coding would only absorb new settings after clearing the backlog
and returning to the outer loop. Per discussion.
Back-patch to 8.3. The logic in prior versions is a bit different and it
doesn't seem worth taking any risks of breaking it.

Depending on which spec you read, field widths and precisions in %s may be
counted either in bytes or characters. Our code was assuming bytes, which
is wrong at least for glibc's implementation, and in any case libc might
have a different idea of the prevailing encoding than we do. Hence, for
portable results we must avoid using anything more complex than just "%s"
unless the string to be printed is known to be all-ASCII.
This patch fixes the cases I could find, including the psql formatting
failure reported by Hernan Gonzalez. In HEAD only, I also added comments
to some places where it appears safe to continue using "%.*s".

field of the WAL record. The previous coding always wrote to the main fork,
resulting in data corruption if the page was meant to go into a non-default
fork.
At present, the only operation that can produce such WAL records is
ALTER TABLE/INDEX SET TABLESPACE when executed with archive_mode = on.
Data corruption would be observed on standby slaves, and could occur on the
master as well if a database crash and recovery occurred after committing
the ALTER and before the next checkpoint. Per report from Gordon Shannon.
Back-patch to 8.4; the problem doesn't exist in earlier branches because
we didn't have a concept of multiple relation forks then.

returns EINVAL for an existing shared memory segment. Although it's not
terribly sensible, that behavior does meet the POSIX spec because EINVAL
is the appropriate error code when the existing segment is smaller than the
requested size, and the spec explicitly disclaims any particular ordering of
error checks. Moreover, it does in fact happen on OS X and probably other
BSD-derived kernels. (We were able to talk NetBSD into changing their code,
but purging that behavior from the wild completely seems unlikely to happen.)
We need to distinguish collision with a pre-existing segment from invalid size
request in order to behave sensibly, so it's worth some extra code here to get
it right. Per report from Gavin Kistner and subsequent investigation.
Back-patch to all supported versions, since any of them could get used
with a kernel having the debatable behavior.

reload and rotation signals, and a helper thread reads messages from the
pipe and writes them to the log file. However, server code isn't generally
thread-safe, so if both try to do e.g palloc()/pfree() at the same time,
bad things will happen. To fix that, use a critical section (which is like
a mutex) to enforce that only one the threads are active at a time.

relcache reload works. In the patched code, a relcache entry in process of
being rebuilt doesn't get unhooked from the relcache hash table; which means
that if a cache flush occurs due to sinval queue overrun while we're
rebuilding it, the entry could get blown away by RelationCacheInvalidate,
resulting in crash or misbehavior. Fix by ensuring that an entry being
rebuilt has positive refcount, so it won't be seen as a target for removal
if a cache flush occurs. (This will mean that the entry gets rebuilt twice
in such a scenario, but that's okay.) It appears that the problem can only
arise within a transaction that has previously reassigned the relfilenode of
a pre-existing table, via TRUNCATE or a similar operation. Per bug #5412
from Rusty Conover.
Back-patch to 8.2, same as the patch that introduced the problem.
I think that the failure can't actually occur in 8.2, since it lacks the
rd_newRelfilenodeSubid optimization, but let's make it work like the later
branches anyway.
Patch by Heikki, slightly editorialized on by me.

Windows, thanks to a feature in CRT called Parameter Validation.
Backpatch to 8.2, which is the oldest version supported on Windows. In
8.2 and 8.3 also backpatch the earlier change to use DEVNULL instead of
NULL_DEV #define for a /dev/null-like device. NULL_DEV was hard-coded to
"/dev/null" regardless of platform, which didn't work on Windows, while
DEVNULL works on all platforms. Restarting syslogger didn't work on
Windows on versions 8.3 and below because of that.

so that we won't try to attach any context printouts to messages that get
emitted while exiting. Per report from Dennis Koegel, the context functions
won't necessarily work after we've started shutting down the backend, and it
seems possible that debug_query_string could be pointing at freed storage
as well. The context information doesn't seem particularly relevant to
such messages anyway, so there's little lost by suppressing it.
Back-patch to all supported branches. I can only demonstrate a crash with
log_disconnections messages back to 8.1, but the risk seems real in 8.0 and
before anyway.

catalog entries via SearchSysCache and related operations. Although, at the
time that these callbacks are called by elog.c, we have not officially aborted
the current transaction, it still seems rather risky to initiate any new
catalog fetches. In all these cases the needed information is readily
available in the caller and so it's just a matter of a bit of extra notation
to pass it to the callback.
Per crash report from Dennis Koegel. I've concluded that the real fix for
his problem is to clear the error context stack at entry to proc_exit, but
it still seems like a good idea to make the callbacks a bit less fragile
for other cases.
Backpatch to 8.4. We could go further back, but the patch doesn't apply
cleanly. In the absence of proof that this fixes something and isn't just
paranoia, I'm not going to expend the effort.

unless (1) the @ isn't quoted and (2) the filename isn't empty. This guards
against unexpectedly treating usernames or other strings in "flat files"
as inclusion requests, as seen in a recent trouble report from Ed L.
The empty-filename case would be guaranteed to misbehave anyway, because our
subsequent path-munging behavior results in trying to read the directory
containing the current input file.
I think this might finally explain the report at
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2004-05/msg00132.php
of a crash after printing "authentication file token too long, skipping",
since I was able to duplicate that message (though not a crash) on a
platform where stdio doesn't refuse to read directories. We never got
far in investigating that problem, but now I'm suspicious that the trigger
condition was an @ in the flat password file.
Back-patch to all active branches since the problem can be demonstrated in all
branches except HEAD. The test case, creating a user named "@", doesn't cause
a problem in HEAD since we got rid of the flat password file. Nonetheless it
seems like a good idea to not consider quoted @ as a file inclusion spec,
so I changed HEAD too.

I renamed xml_init to pg_xml_init, because the former seemed just a bit too
generic to be safe as a global symbol. I considered likewise renaming
xml_ereport to pg_xml_ereport, but felt that the reference to ereport probably
made it sufficiently PG-centric already.

We had originally made the stronger assumption that NOT A refutes any B
if B implies A, but this fails in three-valued logic, because we need to
prove B is false not just that it's not true. However the logic does
go through if B is equal to A.
Recognizing this limited case is enough to handle examples that arise when
we have simplified "bool_var = true" or "bool_var = false" to just "bool_var"
or "NOT bool_var". If we had not done that simplification then the
btree-operator proof logic would have been able to prove that the expressions
were contradictory, but only for identical expressions being compared to the
constants; so handling identical A and B covers all the same cases.
The motivation for doing this is to avoid unexpected asymmetrical behavior
when a partitioned table uses a boolean partitioning column, as in today's
gripe from Dominik Sander.
Back-patch to 8.2, which is as far back as predicate_refuted_by attempts to
do anything at all with NOTs.

ArrayRef expressions that are not in the immediate context of an INSERT or
UPDATE targetlist. Such cases never arise in stored rules, so ruleutils.c
hadn't tried to handle them. However, they do occur in the targetlists of
plans derived from such statements, and now that EXPLAIN VERBOSE tries to
print targetlists, we need some way to deal with the case.
I chose to represent an assignment ArrayRef as "array[subscripts] := source",
which is fairly reasonable and doesn't omit any information. However,
FieldStore is problematic because the planner will fold multiple assignments
to fields of the same composite column into one FieldStore, resulting in a
structure that is hard to understand at all, let alone display comprehensibly.
So in that case I punted and just made it print the source expression(s).
Backpatch to 8.4 --- the lack of functionality exists in older releases,
but doesn't seem to be important for lack of anything that would call it.

being assigned to, in case the expression to be assigned is a FieldStore that
would need to modify that value. The need for this was foreseen some time
ago, but not implemented then because we did not have arrays of composites.
Now we do, but the point evidently got overlooked in that patch. Net result
is that updating a field of an array element doesn't work right, as
illustrated if you try the new regression test on an unpatched backend.
Noted while experimenting with EXPLAIN VERBOSE, which has also got some issues
in this area.
Backpatch to 8.3, where arrays of composites were introduced.

is aborted, if they were created within the failed xact. This prevents
ExecutorEnd from being run on them, which is a good idea because they may
contain references to tables or other objects that no longer exist.
In particular this is hazardous when auto_explain is active, but it's
really rather surprising that nobody has seen an issue with this before.
I'm back-patching this to 8.4, since that's the first version that contains
auto_explain or an ExecutorEnd hook, but I wonder whether we shouldn't
back-patch further.

matching before recursing instead of after. The DFA match eliminates
unworkable midpoint choices a lot faster than the recursive check, in most
cases, so doing it first can speed things up; particularly in pathological
cases such as recently exhibited by Michael Glaesemann.
In addition, apply some cosmetic changes that were applied upstream (in the
Tcl project) at the same time, in order to sync with upstream version 1.15
of regexec.c.
Upstream apparently intends to backpatch this, so I will too. The
pathological behavior could be unpleasant if encountered in the field,
which seems to justify any risk of introducing new bugs.

There was a race condition where the receiving pipe could be closed by the
child thread if the main thread was pre-empted before it got a chance to
create a new one, and the dispatch thread ran to completion during that time.
One symptom of this is that rows in pg_listener could be dropped under
heavy load.

Since all current and foreseeable future command tags will be pure ASCII,
there is no need to do conversion on them. This saves a few cycles and also
avoids polluting otherwise-pristine subtransaction memory contexts, which
is the cause of the backend memory leak exhibited in bug #5302. (Someday
we'll probably want to have a better method of determining whether
subtransaction contexts need to be kept around, but today is not that day.)
Backpatch to 8.0. The cycle-shaving aspect of this would work in 7.4
too, but without subtransactions the memory-leak aspect doesn't apply,
so it doesn't seem worth touching 7.4.

AbortTransaction or AbortSubTransaction, when trying to clean up after an
error that prevented (sub)transaction start from completing:
* access to TopTransactionResourceOwner that might not exist
* assert failure in AtEOXact_GUC, if AtStart_GUC not called yet
* assert failure or core dump in AfterTriggerEndSubXact, if
AfterTriggerBeginSubXact not called yet
Per testing by injecting elog(ERROR) at successive steps in StartTransaction
and StartSubTransaction. It's not clear whether all of these cases could
really occur in the field, but at least one of them is easily exposed by
simple stress testing, as per my accidental discovery yesterday.

underlying catalog not only the index itself. Otherwise, if the cache
load process touches the catalog (which will happen for many though not
all of these indexes), we are locking index before parent table, which can
result in a deadlock against processes that are trying to lock them in the
normal order. Per today's failure on buildfarm member gothic_moth; it's
surprising the problem hadn't been identified before.
Back-patch to 8.2. Earlier releases didn't have the issue because they
didn't try to lock these indexes during load (instead assuming that they
couldn't change schema at all during multiuser operation).

especially not ROLLBACK. ROLLBACK might need to be executed in an already

work a bit harder here to avoid future revalidation cycles.

occurring during a reload, such as query-cancel. Instead of zeroing out
an existing relcache entry and rebuilding it in place, build a new relcache
entry, then swap its contents with the old one, then free the new entry.
This avoids problems with code believing that a previously obtained pointer
to a cache entry must still reference a valid entry, as seen in recent
failures on buildfarm member jaguar. (jaguar is using CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS
which raises the probability of failure substantially, but the problem
could occur in the field without that.) The previous design was okay
when it was made, but subtransactions and the ResourceOwner mechanism
make it unsafe now.
Also, make more use of the already existing rd_isvalid flag, so that we
remember that the entry requires rebuilding even if the first attempt fails.
Back-patch as far as 8.2. Prior versions have enough issues around relcache
reload anyway (due to inadequate locking) that fixing this one doesn't seem
worthwhile.

rowtype contains dropped columns. Sometimes the input tuple will be formed
from a select targetlist in which dropped columns are filled with a NULL
of an arbitrary type (the planner typically uses INT4, since it can't tell
what type the dropped column really was). So we need to relax the rowtype
compatibility check to not insist on physical compatibility if the actual
column value is NULL.
In principle we might need to do this for functions returning composite
types, too (see tupledesc_match()). In practice there doesn't seem to be
a bug there, probably because the function will be using the same cached
rowtype descriptor as the caller. Fixing that code path would require
significant rearrangement, so I left it alone for now.

of the string". The previous coding treated only -1 that way, and would
produce an invalid result value for other negative values.
We ought to fix it so that 2-parameter bit substring() is a different C
function and the 3-parameter form throws error for negative length, but
that takes a pg_proc change which is impractical in the back branches;
and in any case somebody might be relying on -1 working this way.
So just do this as a back-patchable fix.

peculiar variant of UNION ALL, and so wouldn't likely get written directly
as-is, it's possible for it to arise as a result of simplification of
less-obviously-silly queries. In particular, now that we can do flattening
of subqueries that have constant outputs and are underneath an outer join,
it's possible for the case to result from simplification of queries of the
