The syntax "\n*", that is a backref with a * quantifier directly applied
to it, has never worked correctly in Spencer's library. This has been an
open bug in the Tcl bug tracker since 2005:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1115587&group_id=10894&atid=110894
The core of the problem is in parseqatom(), which first changes "\n*" to
"\n+|" and then applies repeat() to the NFA representing the backref atom.
repeat() thinks that any arc leading into its "rp" argument is part of the
sub-NFA to be repeated. Unfortunately, since parseqatom() already created
the arc that was intended to represent the empty bypass around "\n+", this
arc gets moved too, so that it now leads into the state loop created by
repeat(). Thus, what was supposed to be an "empty" bypass gets turned into
something that represents zero or more repetitions of the NFA representing
the backref atom. In the original example, in place of
^([bc])\1*$
we now have something that acts like
^([bc])(\1+|[bc]*)$
At runtime, the branch involving the actual backref fails, as it's supposed
to, but then the other branch succeeds anyway.
We could no doubt fix this by some rearrangement of the operations in
parseqatom(), but that code is plenty ugly already, and what's more the
whole business of converting "x*" to "x+|" probably needs to go away to fix
another problem I'll mention in a moment. Instead, this patch suppresses
the *-conversion when the target is a simple backref atom, leaving the case
of m == 0 to be handled at runtime. This makes the patch in regcomp.c a
one-liner, at the cost of having to tweak cbrdissect() a little. In the
event I went a bit further than that and rewrote cbrdissect() to check all
the string-length-related conditions before it starts comparing characters.
It seems a bit stupid to possibly iterate through many copies of an
n-character backreference, only to fail at the end because the target
string's length isn't a multiple of n --- we could have found that out
before starting. The existing coding could only be a win if integer
division is hugely expensive compared to character comparison, but I don't
know of any modern machine where that might be true.
This does not fix all the problems with quantified back-references. In
particular, the code is still broken for back-references that appear within
a larger expression that is quantified (so that direct insertion of the
quantification limits into the BACKREF node doesn't apply). I think fixing
that will take some major surgery on the NFA code, specifically introducing
an explicit iteration node type instead of trying to transform iteration
into concatenation of modified regexps.
Back-patch to all supported branches. In HEAD, also add a regression test
case for this. (It may seem a bit silly to create a regression test file
for just one test case; but I'm expecting that we will soon import a whole
bunch of regex regression tests from Tcl, so might as well create the
infrastructure now.)

This extends the changes of commit 6252c4f9e201f619e5eebda12fa867acd4e4200e
so that we run the cleanup hook earlier for failure cases as well as
success cases. As before, the point is to avoid an assertion failure from
an Assert I added in commit a874fe7b4c890d1fe3455215a83ca777867beadd, which
was meant to check that no user-written code can be called during portal
cleanup. This fixes a case reported by Pavan Deolasee in which the Assert
could be triggered during backend exit (see the new regression test case),
and also prevents the possibility that the cleanup hook is run after
portions of the portal's state have already been recycled. That doesn't
really matter in current usage, but it foreseeably could matter in the
future.
Back-patch to 9.1 where the Assert in question was added.

Throwing an error only after we've built the main index fork is pretty

The postmaster was coded to treat any unexpected exit of the startup
process (i.e., the WAL replay process) as a catastrophic crash, and not try
to restart it. This was OK so long as the startup process could not have
any sibling postmaster children. However, if a hot-standby backend
crashes, we SIGQUIT the startup process along with everything else, and the
resulting exit is hardly "unexpected". Treating it as such meant we failed
to restart a standby server after any child crash at all, not only a crash
of the WAL replay process as intended. Adjust that. Back-patch to 9.0
where hot standby was introduced.

Although we will not even issue an XLOG_TBLSPC_DROP WAL record unless
removal of the tablespace's directories succeeds, that does not guarantee
that the same operation will succeed during WAL replay. Foreseeable
reasons for it to fail include temp files created in the tablespace by Hot
Standby backends, wrong directory permissions on a standby server, etc etc.
The original coding threw ERROR if replay failed to remove the directories,
but that is a serious overreaction. Throwing an error aborts recovery,
and worse means that manual intervention will be needed to get the database
to start again, since otherwise the same error will recur on subsequent
attempts to replay the same WAL record. And the consequence of failing to
remove the directories is only that some probably-small amount of disk
space is wasted, so it hardly seems justified to throw an error.
Accordingly, arrange to report such failures as LOG messages and keep going
when a failure occurs during replay.
Back-patch to 9.0 where Hot Standby was introduced. In principle such
problems can occur in earlier releases, but Hot Standby increases the odds
of trouble significantly. Given the lack of field reports of such issues,
I'm satisfied with patching back as far as the patch applies easily.

Fix a longstanding thinko in replay of NEXTOID and checkpoint records: we
tried to advance nextOid only if it was behind the value in the WAL record,
but the comparison would draw the wrong conclusion if OID wraparound had
occurred since the previous value. Better to just unconditionally assign
the new value, since OID assignment shouldn't be happening during replay
anyway.
The consequences of a failure to update nextOid would be pretty minimal,
since we have long had the code set up to obtain another OID and try again
if the generated value is already in use. But in the worst case there
could be significant performance glitches while such loops iterate through
many already-used OIDs before finding a free one.
The odds of a wraparound happening during WAL replay would be small in a
crash-recovery scenario, and the length of any ensuing OID-assignment stall
quite limited anyway. But neither of these statements hold true for a
replication slave that follows a WAL stream for a long period; its behavior
upon going live could be almost unboundedly bad. Hence it seems worth
back-patching this fix into all supported branches.
Already fixed in HEAD in commit c6d76d7c82ebebb7210029f7382c0ebe2c558bca.

RestoreBkpBlocks was in the habit of zeroing and refilling the target
buffer; which was perfectly safe when the code was written, but is unsafe
during Hot Standby operation. The reason is that we have coding rules
that allow backends to continue accessing a tuple in a heap relation while
holding only a pin on its buffer. Such a backend could see transiently
zeroed data, if WAL replay had occasion to change other data on the page.
This has been shown to be the cause of bug #6425 from Duncan Rance (who
deserves kudos for developing a sufficiently-reproducible test case) as
well as Bridget Frey's re-report of bug #6200. It most likely explains the
original report as well, though we don't yet have confirmation of that.
To fix, change the code so that only bytes that are supposed to change will
change, even transiently. This actually saves cycles in RestoreBkpBlocks,
since it's not writing the same bytes twice.
Also fix seq_redo, which has the same disease, though it has to work a bit
harder to meet the requirement.
So far as I can tell, no other WAL replay routines have this type of bug.
In particular, the index-related replay routines, which would certainly be
broken if they had to meet the same standard, are not at risk because we
do not have coding rules that allow access to an index page when not
holding a buffer lock on it.
Back-patch to 9.0 where Hot Standby was added.

We log AccessExclusiveLocks for replay onto standby nodes,
but because of timing issues on ProcArray it is possible to
log a lock that is still held by a just committed transaction
that is very soon to be removed. To avoid any timing issue we
avoid applying locks made by transactions with InvalidXid.

When default_text_search_config, default_tablespace, or temp_tablespaces
setting is set per-user or per-database, with an "ALTER USER/DATABASE SET
..." statement, don't throw an error if the text search configuration or
tablespace does not exist. In case of text search configuration, even if
it doesn't exist in the current database, it might exist in another
database, where the setting is intended to have its effect. This behavior
is now the same as search_path's.
Tablespaces are cluster-wide, so the same argument doesn't hold for
tablespaces, but there's a problem with pg_dumpall: it dumps "ALTER USER
SET ..." statements before the "CREATE TABLESPACE" statements. Arguably
that's pg_dumpall's fault - it should dump the statements in such an order
that the tablespace is created first and then the "ALTER USER SET
default_tablespace ..." statements after that - but it seems better to be
consistent with search_path and default_text_search_config anyway. Besides,
you could still create a dump that throws an error, by creating the
tablespace, running "ALTER USER SET default_tablespace", then dropping the
tablespace and running pg_dumpall on that.
Backpatch to all supported versions.

In commit 57664ed25e5dea117158a2e663c29e60b3546e1c, I made the planner
wrap non-simple-variable outputs of appendrel children (IOW, child SELECTs
of UNION ALL subqueries) inside PlaceHolderVars, in order to solve some
issues with EquivalenceClass processing. However, this means that any
upper-level WHERE clauses mentioning such outputs will now contain
PlaceHolderVars after they're pushed down into the appendrel child,
and that prevents indxpath.c from recognizing that they could be matched
to index expressions. To fix, add explicit stripping of PlaceHolderVars
from index operands, same as we have long done for RelabelType nodes.
Add a regression test covering both this and the plain-UNION case (which
is a totally different code path, but should also be able to do it).
Per bug #6416 from Matteo Beccati. Back-patch to 9.1, same as the
previous change.

Formerly we passed an empty list to each per-child-table invocation of
grouping_planner, and then merged the results into the global list.
However, that fails if there's a CTE attached to the statement, because
create_ctescan_plan uses the list to find the plan referenced by a CTE
reference; so it was unable to find any CTEs attached to the outer UPDATE
or DELETE. But there's no real reason not to use the same list throughout
the process, and doing so is simpler and faster anyway.
Per report from Josh Berkus of "could not find plan for CTE" failures.
Back-patch to 9.1 where we added support for WITH attached to UPDATE or
DELETE. Add some regression test cases, too.

We can't just skip initializing such subplans, because the referencing CTE
node will expect to find the subplan available when it initializes. That
in turn means that ExecInitModifyTable must allow the case (which actually
it needed to do anyway, since there's no guarantee that ModifyTable is
exactly at the top of the CTE plan tree). So move the complaint about not
being allowed in EvalPlanQual mode to execution instead of initialization.
Testing turned up yet another problem, which is that we'd try to
re-initialize the result relation's index list, leading to leaks and
dangling pointers.
Per report from Phil Sorber. Back-patch to 9.1 where data-modifying CTEs
were introduced.

When the only remaining active transactions are READ ONLY, we do a "partial
cleanup" of committed transactions because certain types of conflicts
aren't possible anymore. For committed r/w transactions, we release the
SIREAD locks but keep the SERIALIZABLEXACT. However, for committed r/o
transactions, we can go further and release the SERIALIZABLEXACT too. The
problem was with the latter case: we were returning the SERIALIZABLEXACT to
the free list without removing it from the finished list.
The only real change in the patch is the SHMQueueDelete line, but I also
reworked some of the surrounding code to make it obvious that r/o and r/w
transactions are handled differently -- the existing code felt a bit too
clever.

In commit 7b0d0e9356963d5c3e4d329a917f5fbb82a2ef05, I made CLUSTER and
VACUUM FULL try to preserve toast value OIDs from the original toast table
to the new one. However, if we have to copy both live and recently-dead
versions of a row that has a toasted column, those versions may well
reference the same toast value with the same OID. The patch then led to
duplicate-key failures as we tried to insert the toast value twice with the
same OID. (The previous behavior was not very desirable either, since it
would have silently inserted the same value twice with different OIDs.
That wastes space, but what's worse is that the toast values inserted for
already-dead heap rows would not be reclaimed by subsequent ordinary
VACUUMs, since they go into the new toast table marked live not deleted.)
To fix, check if the copied OID already exists in the new toast table, and
if so, assume that it stores the desired value. This is reasonably safe
since the only case where we will copy an OID from a previous toast pointer
is when toast_insert_or_update was given that toast pointer and so we just
pulled the data from the old table; if we got two different values that way
then we have big problems anyway. We do have to assume that no other
backend is inserting items into the new toast table concurrently, but
that's surely safe for CLUSTER and VACUUM FULL.
Per bug #6393 from Maxim Boguk. Back-patch to 9.0, same as the previous
patch.

As noted by Heikki Linnakangas, the previous coding confused the "flags"
variable with the "mask" variable. The affect of this appears to be that
unlogged buffers would get written out at every checkpoint rather than
only at shutdown time. Although that's arguably an acceptable failure
mode, I'm back-patching this change, since it seems like a poor idea to
rely on this happening to work.

As previously coded, the QueryDesc's dest pointer was left dangling
(pointing at an already-freed receiver object) after ExecutorEnd. It's a
bit astonishing that it took us this long to notice, and I'm not sure that
the known problem case with SQL functions is the only one. Fix it by
saving and restoring the original receiver pointer, which seems the most
bulletproof way of ensuring any related bugs are also covered.
Per bug #6379 from Paul Ramsey. Back-patch to 8.4 where the current
handling of SELECT INTO was introduced.

Because coerce_type recurses into the argument of a CollateExpr,
coerce_to_target_type's longstanding code for detecting whether coerce_type
had actually done anything (to wit, returned a different node than it
passed in) was broken in 9.1. This resulted in unexpected failures in
hide_coercion_node; which was not the latter's fault, since it's critical
that we never call it on anything that wasn't inserted by coerce_type.
(Else we might decide to "hide" a user-written function call.)
Fix by removing and replacing the CollateExpr in coerce_to_target_type
itself. This is all pretty ugly but I don't immediately see a way to make
it nicer.
Per report from Jean-Yves F. Barbier.

We forgot to modify column ACLs, so privileges were still shown as having
been granted by the old owner. This meant that neither the new owner nor
a superuser could revoke the now-untraceable-to-table-owner permissions.

This has been wrong since column ACLs were added, so back-patch to 8.4.

The original coding of this function overlooked the possibility that
it could be passed anything except simple OpExpr indexquals. But
ScalarArrayOpExpr is possible too, and the code would probably crash
(and surely give ridiculous answers) in such a case. Add logic to try
to estimate sanely for such cases.
In passing, fix the treatment of inner-indexscan cost estimation: it was
failing to scale up properly for multiple iterations of a nestloop.
(I think somebody might've thought that index_pages_fetched() is linear,
but of course it's not.)
Report, diagnosis, and preliminary patch by Marti Raudsepp; I refactored
it a bit and fixed the cost estimation.
Back-patch into 9.1 where the bogus code was introduced.

smgrdounlink takes care to not throw an ERROR if it fails to unlink
something, but that caution was rendered useless by commit
3396000684b41e7e9467d1abc67152b39e697035, which put an smgrexists call in
front of it; smgrexists *does* throw error if anything looks funny, such
as getting a permissions error from trying to open the file. If that
happens post-commit, you get a PANIC, and what's worse the same logic
appears in the WAL replay code, so the database even fails to restart.
Restore the intended behavior by removing the smgrexists call --- it isn't
accomplishing anything that we can't do better by adjusting mdunlink's
ideas of whether it ought to warn about ENOENT or not.
Per report from Joseph Shraibman of unrecoverable crash after trying to
drop a table whose FSM fork had somehow gotten chmod'd to 000 permissions.

I forgot to change the functions to use the PG_GETARG_INET_PP() macro,
when I changed DatumGetInetP() to unpack the datum, like Datum*P macros
usually do. Also, I screwed up the definition of the PG_GETARG_INET_PP()
macro, and didn't notice because it wasn't used.
This fixes the memory leak when sorting inet values, as reported
by Jochen Erwied and debugged by Andres Freund. Backpatch to 8.3, like

we don't reach consistency before replaying all of the WAL. Rename the
variable to reachedConsistency, to make its intention clearer.
In master, that was an active bug because of the recent patch to
immediately PANIC if a reference to a missing page is found in WAL after
reaching consistency, as Tom Lane's test case demonstrated. In 9.1 and 9.0,
the only consequence was a misleading "consistent recovery state reached at
%X/%X" message in the log at the beginning of crash recovery (the database
is not consistent at that point yet). In 8.4, the log message was not
printed in crash recovery, even though there was a similar
reachedMinRecoveryPoint local variable that was also set early. So,
backpatch to 9.1 and 9.0.

Since record[] uses array_in, it needs to have its element type passed
as typioparam. In HEAD and 9.1, this fix essentially reverts commit
9bc933b2125a5358722490acbc50889887bf7680, which was a hack that is no
longer needed since domains don't set their typelem anymore. Before
that, adjust the logic so that only domains are excluded from being
treated like arrays, rather than assuming that only base types should
be included. Add a regression test to demonstrate the need for this.
Per report from Maxim Boguk.

On a platform that isn't supplying __FILE__, previous coding would either

that is, but the original code catered for it, so let's keep doing so.

In vpath builds, the __FILE__ macro that is used in verbose error
reports contains the full absolute file name, which makes the error

Force the transaction isolation level to READ COMMITTED in autovacuum
worker and launcher processes. There is no benefit to using a higher
isolation level, and doing so could result in delaying foreground
transactions (or maybe even causing unnecessary serialization failures?).
Noted by Dan Ports.
Also, make sure we disable zero_damaged_pages and statement_timeout in
the autovac launcher, not only workers. Now that the launcher can run
transactions, these settings could affect its behavior, and it seems
like the same arguments apply to the launcher as the workers.

While the deletion in itself wouldn't break things, any further creation
of objects in the script would result in dangling pg_depend entries being
added by recordDependencyOnCurrentExtension(). An example from Phil
Sorber convinced me that this is just barely likely enough to be worth
expending a couple lines of code to defend against. The resulting error
message might be confusing, but it's better than leaving corrupted catalog
contents for the user to deal with.

The EvalPlanQual machinery assumes that whole-row Vars generated for the
outputs of non-table RTEs will be of composite types. However, for the
case where the RTE is a function call returning a scalar type, we were
doing the wrong thing, as a result of sharing code with a parser case
where the function's scalar output is wanted. (Or at least, that's what
that case has done historically; it does seem a bit inconsistent.)
To fix, extend makeWholeRowVar's API so that it can support both use-cases.
This fixes Belinda Cussen's report of crashes during concurrent execution
of UPDATEs involving joins to the result of UNNEST() --- in READ COMMITTED
mode, we'd run the EvalPlanQual machinery after a conflicting row update
commits, and it was expecting to get a HeapTuple not a scalar datum from
the "wholerowN" variable referencing the function RTE.
Back-patch to 9.0 where the current EvalPlanQual implementation appeared.
In 9.1 and up, this patch also fixes failure to attach the correct
collation to the Var generated for a scalar-result case. An example:
regression=# select upper(x.*) from textcat('ab', 'cd') x;
ERROR: could not determine which collation to use for upper() function

A simple thinko in ginRedoUpdateMetapage, namely failing to increment a
loop counter, led to inserting records into the last pending-list page in
the wrong order (the opposite of that intended). So far as I can tell,
this would not upset the code that eventually flushes pending items into
the main part of the GIN index. But it did break the code that searched
the pending list for matches, resulting in transient failure to find
matching entries during index lookups, as illustrated in bug #6307 from
Maksym Boguk.
Back-patch to 8.4 where the incorrect code was introduced.

When the system is idle for awhile after activity, the "smoothed_alloc"
state variable in BgBufferSync converges slowly to zero. With standard
IEEE float arithmetic this results in several iterations with denormalized
values, which causes kernel traps and annoying log messages on some
poorly-designed platforms. There's no real need to track such small values
of smoothed_alloc, so we can prevent the kernel traps by forcing it to zero
as soon as it's too small to be interesting for our purposes. This issue
is purely cosmetic, since the iterations don't happen fast enough for the
kernel traps to pose any meaningful performance problem, but still it seems
worth shutting up the log messages.
The kernel log messages were previously reported by a number of people,
but kudos to Greg Matthews for tracking down exactly where they were coming
from.

Add PlaceHolderVar wrappers as needed to make UNION ALL sub-select output
expressions appear non-constant and distinct from each other. This makes
the world safe for add_child_rel_equivalences to do what it does. Before,
it was possible for that function to add identical expressions to different
EquivalenceClasses, which logically should imply merging such ECs, which
would be wrong; or to improperly add a constant to an EquivalenceClass,
drastically changing its behavior. Per report from Teodor Sigaev.
The only currently known consequence of this bug is "MergeAppend child's
targetlist doesn't match MergeAppend" planner failures in 9.1 and later.
I am suspicious that there may be other failure modes that could affect
older release branches; but in the absence of any hard evidence, I'll
refrain from back-patching further than 9.1.

a new macro, DatumGetInetPP(), that does not. This brings these macros
in line with other DatumGet*P() macros.
Backpatch to 8.3, where 1-byte header varlenas were introduced.

This assumption can be wrong when the toaster is passed a raw on-disk
tuple, because the tuple might pre-date an ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN operation
that added columns without rewriting the table. In such a case the tuple's
natts value is smaller than what we expect from the tuple descriptor, and
so its t_hoff value could be smaller too. In fact, the tuple might not
have a null bitmap at all, and yet our current opinion of it is that it
contains some trailing nulls.
In such a situation, toast_insert_or_update did the wrong thing, because
to save a few lines of code it would use the old t_hoff value as the offset
where heap_fill_tuple should start filling data. This did not leave enough
room for the new nulls bitmap, with the result that the first few bytes of
data could be overwritten with null flag bits, as in a recent report from
Hubert Depesz Lubaczewski.
The particular case reported requires ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN followed by
CREATE TABLE AS SELECT * FROM ... or INSERT ... SELECT * FROM ..., and
further requires that there be some out-of-line toasted fields in one of
the tuples to be copied; else we'll not reach the troublesome code.
The problem can only manifest in this form in 8.4 and later, because
before commit a77eaa6a95009a3441e0d475d1980259d45da072, CREATE TABLE AS or
INSERT/SELECT wouldn't result in raw disk tuples getting passed directly
to heap_insert --- there would always have been at least a junkfilter in
between, and that would reconstitute the tuple header with an up-to-date
t_natts and hence t_hoff. But I'm backpatching the tuptoaster change all
the way anyway, because I'm not convinced there are no older code paths
that present a similar risk.

inline_set_returning_function failed to distinguish functions returning
generic RECORD (which require a column list in the RTE, as well as run-time
type checking) from those with multiple OUT parameters (which do not).
This prevented inlining from happening. Per complaint from Jay Levitt.
Back-patch to 8.4 where this capability was introduced.

If we use a PlaceHolderVar from the outer relation in an inner indexscan,
we need to reference the PlaceHolderVar as such as the value to be passed
in from the outer relation. The previous code effectively tried to
reconstruct the PHV from its component expression, which doesn't work since
(a) the Vars therein aren't necessarily bubbled up far enough, and (b) it
would be the wrong semantics anyway because of the possibility that the PHV
is supposed to have gone to null at some point before the current join.
Point (a) led to "variable not found in subplan target list" planner
errors, but point (b) would have led to silently wrong answers.
Per report from Roger Niederland.

This reverts commit 048fffed55ff1d6d346130e4a6b7be434e81e82c.
As pointed out by Naoya Anzai, we need to do more work to make that
idea handle end-of-index cases, and it is looking like too much risk
for a back-patch. So bug #6278 is only going to be fixed in HEAD.

There was a timing window between when oldestActiveXid was derived
and when it should have been derived that only shows itself under
heavy load. Move code around to ensure correct timing of derivation.
No change to StartupSUBTRANS() code, which is where this failed.

If the initial snapshot had overflowed then we can start whenever
the latest snapshot is empty, not overflowed or as we did already,
start when the xmin on primary was higher than xmax of our starting
snapshot, which proves we have full snapshot data.

If a tuple in a syscache contains an out-of-line toasted field, and we
try to fetch that field shortly after some other transaction has committed
an update or deletion of the tuple, there is a race condition: vacuum
could come along and remove the toast tuples before we can fetch them.
This leads to transient failures like "missing chunk number 0 for toast
value NNNNN in pg_toast_2619", as seen in recent reports from Andrew
Hammond and Tim Uckun.
The design idea of syscache is that access to stale syscache entries
should be prevented by relation-level locks, but that fails for at least
two cases where toasted fields are possible: ANALYZE updates pg_statistic
rows without locking out sessions that might want to plan queries on the
same table, and CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION updates pg_proc rows without
any meaningful lock at all.
The least risky fix seems to be an idea that Heikki suggested when we
were dealing with a related problem back in August: forcibly detoast any
out-of-line fields before putting a tuple into syscache in the first place.
This avoids the problem because at the time we fetch the parent tuple from
the catalog, we should be holding an MVCC snapshot that will prevent
removal of the toast tuples, even if the parent tuple is outdated
immediately after we fetch it. (Note: I'm not convinced that this
statement holds true at every instant where we could be fetching a syscache
entry at all, but it does appear to hold true at the times where we could
fetch an entry that could have a toasted field. We will need to be a bit
wary of adding toast tables to low-level catalogs that don't have them
already.) An additional benefit is that subsequent uses of the syscache
entry should be faster, since they won't have to detoast the field.
Back-patch to all supported versions. The problem is significantly harder
to reproduce in pre-9.0 releases, because of their willingness to flush
every entry in a syscache whenever the underlying catalog is vacuumed
(cf CatalogCacheFlushRelation); but there is still a window for trouble.

The existing scan-direction-sensitive tests were overly complex, and
failed to stop the scan in cases where it's perfectly legitimate to do so.
Per bug #6278 from Maksym Boguk.
Back-patch to 8.3, which is as far back as the patch applies easily.
Doesn't seem worth sweating over a relatively minor performance issue in
8.2 at this late date. (But note that this was a performance regression
from 8.1 and before, so 8.2 is being left as an outlier.)

cash_out failed to handle multiple-byte thousands separators, as per bug
#6277 from Alexander Law. In addition, cash_in didn't handle that either,
nor could it handle multiple-byte positive_sign. Both routines failed to
support multiple-byte mon_decimal_point, which I did not think was worth
changing, but at least now they check for the possibility and fall back to
using '.' rather than emitting invalid output. Also, make cash_in handle
trailing negative signs, which formerly it would reject. Since cash_out
generates trailing negative signs whenever the locale tells it to, this
last omission represents a fail-to-reload-dumped-data bug. IMO that
justifies patching this all the way back.

When a foreign-key constraint references another column of the same table,
row updates will queue both the PK's ON UPDATE action and the FK's CHECK
action in the same event. The ON UPDATE action must execute first, else
the CHECK will check a non-final state of the row and possibly throw an
inappropriate error, as seen in bug #6268 from Roman Lytovchenko.
Now, the firing order of multiple triggers for the same event is determined
by the sort order of their pg_trigger.tgnames, and the auto-generated names
we use for FK triggers are "RI_ConstraintTrigger_NNNN" where NNNN is the
trigger OID. So most of the time the firing order is the same as creation
order, and so rearranging the creation order fixes it.
This patch will fail to fix the problem if the OID counter wraps around or
adds a decimal digit (eg, from 99999 to 100000) while we are creating the
triggers for an FK constraint. Given the small odds of that, and the low
usage of self-referential FKs, we'll live with that solution in the back
branches. A better fix is to change the auto-generated names for FK
triggers, but it seems unwise to do that in stable branches because there
may be client code that depends on the naming convention. We'll fix it
that way in HEAD in a separate patch.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this bug has existed for a long
time.

The uniqueness condition might fail to hold intra-transaction, and assuming
it does can give incorrect query results. Per report from Marti Raudsepp,
though this is not his proposed patch.
Back-patch to 9.0, where both these features were introduced. In the
released branches, add the new IndexOptInfo field to the end of the struct,
to try to minimize ABI breakage for third-party code that may be examining
that struct.

No need to do "errcode(errcode_for_file_access())", just
"errcode_for_file_access()" is enough. The extra errcode() call is useless
but harmless, so there's no user-visible bug here. Nevertheless, backpatch
to 9.1 where this code were added.

Turns out that use of ShareUpdateExclusiveLock or ShareRowExclusiveLock
to protect DDL changes had gotten copied into several places that were
not touched by either of Simon's original patches for the feature, and
thus neither he nor I thought to revert them. (Indeed, it appears that
two of these uses were committed *after* the reversion, which just goes
to show that git merging is no panacea.) Change these places to use
AccessExclusiveLock again. If we ever manage to resurrect that feature,
we're going to have to think a bit harder about how to keep lock level
usage in sync for DDL operations that aren't within the AlterTable
infrastructure.
Two of these bugs are only in HEAD, but one is in the 9.1 branch too.
Alvaro found one of them, I found the other two.
