The displayed sendtime and receipttime were always exactly equal, because
somebody forgot that timestamptz_to_str returns a static buffer (thereby
simplifying life for most callers, at the cost of complicating it for those
who need two results concurrently). Apply the same pstrdup solution used
by the other call sites with this issue. Back-patch to 9.2 where the
faulty code was introduced. Per bug #9849 from Haruka Takatsuka, though
this is not exactly his patch.
Possibly we should change timestamptz_to_str's API, but I wouldn't want
to do so in the back branches.

Memory allocation can fail if you run out of memory, and inside a critical
section that will lead to a PANIC. Use conservatively-sized arrays in stack
instead.
There was previously no explicit limit on the number of pages a GiST split
can produce, it was only limited by the number of LWLocks that can be held
simultaneously (100 at the moment). This patch adds an explicit limit of 75
pages. That should be plenty, a typical split shouldn't produce more than
2-3 page halves.
The bug has been there forever, but only backpatch down to 9.1. The code
was changed significantly in 9.1, and it doesn't seem worth the risk or
trouble to adapt this for 9.0 and 8.4.

The code for matching clients to pg_hba.conf lines that specify host names
(instead of IP address ranges) failed to complain if reverse DNS lookup
failed; instead it silently didn't match, so that you might end up getting
a surprising "no pg_hba.conf entry for ..." error, as seen in bug #9518
from Mike Blackwell. Since we don't want to make this a fatal error in
situations where pg_hba.conf contains a mixture of host names and IP
addresses (clients matching one of the numeric entries should not have to
have rDNS data), remember the lookup failure and mention it as DETAIL if
we get to "no pg_hba.conf entry". Apply the same approach to forward-DNS
lookup failures, too, rather than treating them as immediate hard errors.
Along the way, fix a couple of bugs that prevented us from detecting an
rDNS lookup error reliably, and make sure that we make only one rDNS lookup
attempt; formerly, if the lookup attempt failed, the code would try again
for each host name entry in pg_hba.conf. Since more or less the whole
point of this design is to ensure there's only one lookup attempt not one
per entry, the latter point represents a performance bug that seems
sufficient justification for back-patching.
Also, adjust src/port/getaddrinfo.c so that it plays as well as it can
with this code. Which is not all that well, since it does not have actual
support for rDNS lookup, but at least it should return the expected (and
required by spec) error codes so that the main code correctly perceives the
lack of functionality as a lookup failure. It's unlikely that PG is still
being used in production on any machines that require our getaddrinfo.c,
so I'm not excited about working harder than this.
To keep the code in the various branches similar, this includes
back-patching commits c424d0d1052cb4053c8712ac44123f9b9a9aa3f2 and
1997f34db4687e671690ed054c8f30bb501b1168 into 9.2 and earlier.

Initialization of this field was not being done according to the
st_changecount protocol (it has to be done within the changecount increment
range, not outside). And the test to see if the value should be reported
as null was wrong. Noted while perusing uses of Port.remote_hostname.
This was wrong from the introduction of this code (commit 4a25bc145),

Otherwise, the compiler might decide to move modifications to data
within this structure outside the enclosing SpinLockAcquire /
SpinLockRelease pair, leading to shared memory corruption.
This may or may not explain a recent lmgr-related buildfarm failure
on prairiedog, but it needs to be fixed either way.

On clean shutdown, walsender waits for all WAL to be replicated to a standby,
and exits. It determined whether that replication had been completed by
checking whether its sent location had been equal to a standby's flush
location. Unfortunately this condition never becomes true when the standby
such as pg_receivexlog which always returns an invalid flush location is
connecting to walsender, and then walsender waits forever.
This commit changes walsender so that it just checks a standby's write
location if a flush location is invalid.
Back-patch to 9.1 where enough infrastructure for this exists.

This should eliminate the risk of recursive entry to syslog(3), which
appears to be the cause of the hang reported in bug #9551 from James
Morton.
Arguably, the real problem here is auth.c's willingness to turn on
ImmediateInterruptOK while executing fairly wide swaths of backend code.
We may well need to work at narrowing the code ranges in which the
authentication_timeout interrupt is enabled. For the moment, though,
this is a cheap and reasonably noninvasive fix for a field-reported
failure; the other approach would be complex and not necessarily
bug-free itself.

Use TransactionIdIsInProgress, then TransactionIdDidCommit, to distinguish
whether a NOTIFY message's originating transaction is in progress,
committed, or aborted. The previous coding could accept a message from a
transaction that was still in-progress according to the PGPROC array;
if the client were fast enough at starting a new transaction, it might fail
to see table rows added/updated by the message-sending transaction. Which
of course would usually be the point of receiving the message. We noted
this type of race condition long ago in tqual.c, but async.c overlooked it.
The race condition probably cannot occur unless there are multiple NOTIFY
senders in action, since an individual backend doesn't send NOTIFY signals
until well after it's done committing. But if two senders commit in close
succession, it's certainly possible that we could see the second sender's
message within the race condition window while responding to the signal
from the first one.
Per bug #9557 from Marko Tiikkaja. This patch is slightly more invasive
than what he proposed, since it removes the now-redundant
TransactionIdDidAbort call.
Back-patch to 9.0, where the current NOTIFY implementation was introduced.

We don't take a full-page image of the GIN metapage; instead, the WAL record
contains all the information required to reconstruct it from scratch. But
to avoid torn page hazards, we must re-initialize it from the WAL record
every time, even if it already has a greater LSN, similar to how normal full
page images are restored.
This was highly unlikely to cause any problems in practice, because the GIN
metapage is small. We rely on an update smaller than a 512 byte disk sector
to be atomic elsewhere, at least in pg_control. But better safe than sorry,
and this would be easy to overlook if more fields are added to the metapage
so that it's no longer small.

A fake relcache entry can "own" a SmgrRelation object, like a regular
relcache entry. But when it was free'd, the owner field in SmgrRelation
was not cleared, so it was left pointing to free'd memory.
Amazingly this apparently hasn't caused crashes in practice, or we would've
heard about it earlier. Andres found this with Valgrind.

In make_ruledef and get_query_def, we have long used AcquireRewriteLocks
to ensure that the querytree we are about to deparse is up-to-date and
the schemas of the underlying relations aren't changing. Howwever, that
function thinks the query is about to be executed, so it acquires locks
that are stronger than necessary for the purpose of deparsing. Thus for
example, if pg_dump asks to deparse a rule that includes "INSERT INTO t",
we'd acquire RowExclusiveLock on t. That results in interference with
concurrent transactions that might for example ask for ShareLock on t.
Since pg_dump is documented as being purely read-only, this is unexpected.
(Worse, it used to actually be read-only; this behavior dates back only
to 8.1, cf commit ba4200246.)
Fix this by adding a parameter to AcquireRewriteLocks to tell it whether
we want the "real" execution locks or only AccessShareLock.

When entering crash recovery followed by archive recovery, and the latest
checkpoint is a shutdown checkpoint, and there are no more WAL records to
replay before transitioning from crash to archive recovery, we would not
immediately allow read-only connections in hot standby mode even if we
could. That's because when starting from a shutdown checkpoint, we set
lastReplayedEndRecPtr incorrectly to the record before the checkpoint
record, instead of the checkpoint record itself. We don't run the redo
routine of the shutdown checkpoint record, but starting recovery from it
goes through the same motions, so it should be considered as replayed.
Reported by Kyotaro HORIGUCHI. All versions with hot standby are affected,
so backpatch to 9.0.

The regex code didn't have any provision for query cancel; which is
unsurprising given its non-Postgres origin, but still problematic since
some operations can take a long time. Introduce a callback function to
check for a pending query cancel or session termination request, and
call it in a couple of strategic spots where we can make the regex code
exit with an error indicator.
If we ever actually split out the regex code as a standalone library,
some additional work will be needed to let the cancel callback function
be specified externally to the library. But that's straightforward
(certainly so by comparison to putting the locale-dependent character
classification logic on a similar arms-length basis), and there seems
no need to do it right now.
A bigger issue is that there may be more places than these two where
we need to check for cancels. We can always add more checks later,
now that the infrastructure is in place.
Since there are known examples of not-terribly-long regexes that can
lock up a backend for a long time, back-patch to all supported branches.
I have hopes of fixing the known performance problems later, but adding
query cancel ability seems like a good idea even if they were all fixed.

If there are lots of uncommitted tuples at the end of the index range,
get_actual_variable_range() ends up fetching each one and doing an MVCC
visibility check on it, until it finally hits a visible tuple. This is
bad enough in isolation, considering that we don't need an exact answer
only an approximate one. But because the tuples are not yet committed,
each visibility check does a TransactionIdIsInProgress() test, which
involves scanning the ProcArray. When multiple sessions do this
concurrently, the ensuing contention results in horrid performance loss.
20X overall throughput loss on not-too-complicated queries is easy to
demonstrate in the back branches (though someone's made it noticeably
less bad in HEAD).
We can dodge the problem fairly effectively by using SnapshotDirty rather
than a normal MVCC snapshot. This will cause the index probe to take
uncommitted tuples as good, so that we incur only one tuple fetch and test
even if there are many such tuples. The extent to which this degrades the
estimate is debatable: it's possible the result is actually a more accurate
prediction than before, if the endmost tuple has become committed by the
time we actually execute the query being planned. In any case, it's not
very likely that it makes the estimate a lot worse.
SnapshotDirty will still reject tuples that are known committed dead, so
we won't give bogus answers if an invalid outlier has been deleted but not
yet vacuumed from the index. (Because btrees know how to mark such tuples
dead in the index, we shouldn't have a big performance problem in the case
that there are many of them at the end of the range.) This consideration
motivates not using SnapshotAny, which was also considered as a fix.
Note: the back branches were using SnapshotNow instead of an MVCC snapshot,
but the problem and solution are the same.
Per performance complaints from Bartlomiej Romanski, Josh Berkus, and
others. Back-patch to 9.0, where the issue was introduced (by commit
40608e7f949fb7e4025c0ddd5be01939adc79eec).

The SQL standard says that OVERLAPS should have a two-element row
constructor on each side. The original coding of OVERLAPS support in
our grammar attempted to extend that by allowing a single-element row
constructor, which it internally duplicated ... or tried to, anyway.
But that code has certainly not worked since our List infrastructure was
rewritten in 2004, and I'm none too sure it worked before that. As it
stands, it ends up building a List that includes itself, leading to
assorted undesirable behaviors later in the parser.
Even if it worked as intended, it'd be a bit evil because of the
possibility of duplicate evaluation of a volatile function that the user
had written only once. Given the lack of documentation, test cases, or
complaints, let's just get rid of the idea and only support the standard
syntax.
While we're at it, improve the error cursor positioning for the
wrong-number-of-arguments errors, and inline the makeOverlaps() function
since it's only called in one place anyway.
Per bug #9227 from Joshua Yanovski. Initial patch by Joshua Yanovski,
extended a bit by me.

Coverity identified a number of places in which it couldn't prove that a
string being copied into a fixed-size buffer would fit. We believe that
most, perhaps all of these are in fact safe, or are copying data that is
coming from a trusted source so that any overrun is not really a security
issue. Nonetheless it seems prudent to forestall any risk by using
strlcpy() and similar functions.
Fixes by Peter Eisentraut and Jozef Mlich based on Coverity reports.
In addition, fix a potential null-pointer-dereference crash in
contrib/chkpass. The crypt(3) function is defined to return NULL on
failure, but chkpass.c didn't check for that before using the result.
The main practical case in which this could be an issue is if libc is
configured to refuse to execute unapproved hashing algorithms (e.g.,
"FIPS mode"). This ideally should've been a separate commit, but
since it touches code adjacent to one of the buffer overrun changes,
I included it in this commit to avoid last-minute merge issues.
This issue was reported by Honza Horak.

Several functions, mostly type input functions, calculated an allocation
size such that the calculation wrapped to a small positive value when
arguments implied a sufficiently-large requirement. Writes past the end
of the inadvertent small allocation followed shortly thereafter.
Coverity identified the path_in() vulnerability; code inspection led to
the rest. In passing, add check_stack_depth() to prevent stack overflow

If the name lookups come to different conclusions due to concurrent
activity, we might perform some parts of the DDL on a different table
than other parts. At least in the case of CREATE INDEX, this can be
used to cause the permissions checks to be performed against a
different table than the index creation, allowing for a privilege
escalation attack.
This changes the calling convention for DefineIndex, CreateTrigger,
transformIndexStmt, transformAlterTableStmt, CheckIndexCompatible
(in 9.2 and newer), and AlterTable (in 9.1 and older). In addition,
CheckRelationOwnership is removed in 9.2 and newer and the calling
convention is changed in older branches. A field has also been added
to the Constraint node (FkConstraint in 8.4). Third-party code calling
these functions or using the Constraint node will require updating.

Granting a role without ADMIN OPTION is supposed to prevent the grantee
from adding or removing members from the granted role. Issuing SET ROLE
before the GRANT bypassed that, because the role itself had an implicit
right to add or remove members. Plug that hole by recognizing that
implicit right only when the session user matches the current role.
Additionally, do not recognize it during a security-restricted operation
or during execution of a SECURITY DEFINER function. The restriction on
SECURITY DEFINER is not security-critical. However, it seems best for a
user testing his own SECURITY DEFINER function to see the same behavior
others will see. Back-patch to 8.4 (all supported versions).
The SQL standards do not conflate roles and users as PostgreSQL does;
only SQL roles have members, and only SQL users initiate sessions. An
application using PostgreSQL users and roles as SQL users and roles will
never attempt to grant membership in the role that is the session user,
so the implicit right to add or remove members will never arise.
The security impact was mostly that a role member could revoke access
from others, contrary to the wishes of his own grantor. Unapproved role
member additions are less notable, because the member can still largely
achieve that by creating a view or a SECURITY DEFINER function.

We used the length of the input string, not the de-escaped string, as

in sometimes printing a phony truncation warning; but it's just luck

In a database that's not yet reached consistency, it's possible that some
segments of a relation are not full-size but are not the last ones either.
Because of the way smgrnblocks() works, asking for a new page with P_NEW
will fill in the last not-full-size segment --- and if that makes it full
size, the apparent EOF of the relation will increase by more than one page,
so that the next P_NEW request will yield a page past the next consecutive
one. This breaks the relation-extension logic in XLogReadBufferExtended,
possibly allowing a page update to be applied to some page far past where
it was intended to go. This appears to be the explanation for reports of
table bloat on replication slaves compared to their masters, and probably
explains some corrupted-slave reports as well.
Fix the loop to check the page number it actually got, rather than merely
Assert()'ing that dead reckoning got it to the desired place. AFAICT,
there are no other places that make assumptions about exactly which page
they'll get from P_NEW.

In p_isdigit and other character class test functions generated by the
p_iswhat macro, the code path for non-C locales with multibyte encodings
contained a bogus pointer cast that would accidentally fail to malfunction
if types wchar_t and wint_t have the same width. Apparently that is true
on most platforms, but not on recent Cygwin releases. Remove the cast,
as it seems completely unnecessary (I think it arose from a false analogy
to the need to cast to unsigned char when dealing with the <ctype.h>
functions). Per bug #8970 from Marco Atzeri.
In the same functions, the code path for C locale with a multibyte encoding
simply ANDed each wide character with 0xFF before passing it to the
corresponding <ctype.h> function. This could result in false positive
answers for some non-ASCII characters, so use a range test instead.
Noted by me while investigating Marco's complaint.
Also, remove some useless though not actually buggy maskings and casts
in the hand-coded p_isalnum and p_isalpha functions, which evidently
got tested a bit more carefully than the macro-generated functions.

WalSndKill was doing things exactly backwards: it should first clear
MyWalSnd (to stop signal handlers from touching MyWalSnd->latch),
then disown the latch, and only then mark the WalSnd struct unused by

Also, WalRcvSigUsr1Handler and worker_spi_sighup failed to preserve
errno, which is surely a requirement for any signal handler.

Evidence from buildfarm member crake suggests that the new test_shm_mq
module is routinely crashing the server due to the arrival of a SIGUSR1
after the shared memory segment has been unmapped. Although processes
using the new dynamic background worker facilities are more likely to
receive a SIGUSR1 around this time, the problem is also possible on older
branches, so I'm back-patching the parts of this change that apply to
older branches as far as they apply.
It's already generally the case that code checks whether these pointers
are NULL before deferencing them, so the important thing is mostly to
make sure that they do get set to NULL before they become invalid. But
in master, there's one case in procsignal_sigusr1_handler that lacks a
NULL guard, so add that.

Various places were supposing that errno could be expected to hold still
within an ereport() nest or similar contexts. This isn't true necessarily,
though in some cases it accidentally failed to fail depending on how the
compiler chanced to order the subexpressions. This class of thinko
explains recent reports of odd failures on clang-built versions, typically
missing or inappropriate HINT fields in messages.
Problem identified by Christian Kruse, who also submitted the patch this
commit is based on. (I fixed a few issues in his patch and found a couple
of additional places with the same disease.)
Back-patch as appropriate to all supported branches.

A while back, 2c92edad48796119c83d7dbe6c33425d1924626d allowed
type_func_name_keywords to be used in more places, including role
identifiers. Unfortunately, that commit missed out on cases where
name_list was used for lists-of-roles, eg: for DROP ROLE. This
resulted in the unfortunate situation that you could CREATE a role
with a type_func_name_keywords-allowed identifier, but not DROP it
(directly- ALTER could be used to rename it to something which
could be DROP'd).
This extends allowing type_func_name_keywords to places where role
lists can be used.
Back-patch to 9.0, as 2c92edad48796119c83d7dbe6c33425d1924626d was.

All these constructs generate parse trees consisting of a Const and
a run-time type coercion (perhaps a FuncExpr or a CoerceViaIO). Modify
the raw parse output so that we end up with the original token's location
attached to the type coercion node while the Const has location -1;
before, it was the other way around. This makes no difference in terms
of what exprLocation() will say about the parse tree as a whole, so it
should not have any user-visible impact. The point of changing it is that
we do not want contrib/pg_stat_statements to treat these constructs as
replaceable constants. It will do the right thing if the Const has
location -1 rather than a valid location.
This is a pretty ugly hack, but then this code is ugly already; we should
someday replace this translation with special-purpose parse node(s) that
would allow ruleutils.c to reconstruct the original query text.
(See also commit 5d3fcc4c2e137417ef470d604fee5e452b22f6a7, which also
hacked location assignment rules for the benefit of pg_stat_statements.)
Back-patch to 9.2 where pg_stat_statements grew the ability to recognize
replaceable constants.

We've always allowed CREATE TABLE to create tables in the database's default
tablespace without checking for CREATE permissions on that tablespace.
Unfortunately, the original implementation of ALTER TABLE ... SET TABLESPACE
didn't pick up on that exception.
This changes ALTER TABLE ... SET TABLESPACE to allow the database's default
tablespace without checking for CREATE rights on that tablespace, just as
CREATE TABLE works today. Users could always do this through a series of
commands (CREATE TABLE ... AS SELECT * FROM ...; DROP TABLE ...; etc), so
let's fix the oversight in SET TABLESPACE's original implementation.

In ordinary operation, VACUUM must be careful to take a cleanup lock on
each leaf page of a btree index; this ensures that no indexscans could
still be "in flight" to heap tuples due to be deleted. (Because of
possible index-tuple motion due to concurrent page splits, it's not enough
to lock only the pages we're deleting index tuples from.) In Hot Standby,
the WAL replay process must likewise lock every leaf page. There were
several bugs in the code for that:
* The replay scan might come across unused, all-zero pages in the index.
While btree_xlog_vacuum itself did the right thing (ie, nothing) with
such pages, xlogutils.c supposed that such pages must be corrupt and
would throw an error. This accounts for various reports of replication
failures with "PANIC: WAL contains references to invalid pages". To
fix, add a ReadBufferMode value that instructs XLogReadBufferExtended
not to complain when we're doing this.
* btree_xlog_vacuum performed the extra locking if standbyState ==
STANDBY_SNAPSHOT_READY, but that's not the correct test: we won't open up
for hot standby queries until the database has reached consistency, and
we don't want to do the extra locking till then either, for fear of reading
corrupted pages (which bufmgr.c would complain about). Fix by exporting a
new function from xlog.c that will report whether we're actually in hot
standby replay mode.
* To ensure full coverage of the index in the replay scan, btvacuumscan
would emit a dummy WAL record for the last page of the index, if no
vacuuming work had been done on that page. However, if the last page
of the index is all-zero, that would result in corruption of said page,
since the functions called on it weren't prepared to handle that case.
There's no need to lock any such pages, so change the logic to target
the last normal leaf page instead.
The first two of these bugs were diagnosed by Andres Freund, the other one
by me. Fixes based on ideas from Heikki Linnakangas and myself.
This has been wrong since Hot Standby was introduced, so back-patch to 9.0.

Per reports from Andres Freund and Luke Campbell, a server failure during
set_pglocale_pgservice results in a segfault rather than a useful error
message, because the infrastructure needed to use ereport hasn't been
initialized; specifically, MemoryContextInit hasn't been called.
One known cause of this is starting the server in a directory it
doesn't have permission to read.
We could try to prevent set_pglocale_pgservice from using anything that
depends on palloc or elog, but that would be messy, and the odds of future
breakage seem high. Moreover there are other things being called in main.c
that look likely to use palloc or elog too --- perhaps those things
shouldn't be there, but they are there today. The best solution seems to
be to move the call of MemoryContextInit to very early in the backend's
real main() function. I've verified that an elog or ereport occurring
immediately after that is now capable of sending something useful to
stderr.
I also added code to elog.c to print something intelligible rather than
just crashing if MemoryContextInit hasn't created the ErrorContext.
This could happen if MemoryContextInit itself fails (due to malloc
failure), and provides some future-proofing against someone trying to
sneak in new code even earlier in server startup.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Since we've only heard reports of
this type of failure recently, it may be that some recent change has made
it more likely to see a crash of this kind; but it sure looks like it's
broken all the way back.

The standard typanalyze functions skip over values whose detoasted size
exceeds WIDTH_THRESHOLD (1024 bytes), so as to limit memory bloat during
ANALYZE. However, we (I think I, actually :-() failed to consider the
possibility that *every* non-null value in a column is too wide. While
compute_minimal_stats() seems to behave reasonably anyway in such a case,
compute_scalar_stats() just fell through and generated no pg_statistic
entry at all. That's unnecessarily pessimistic: we can still produce
valid stanullfrac and stawidth values in such cases, since we do include
too-wide values in the average-width calculation. Furthermore, since the
general assumption in this code is that too-wide values are probably all
distinct from each other, it seems reasonable to set stadistinct to -1
("all distinct").
Per complaint from Kadri Raudsepp. This has been like this since roughly
neolithic times, so back-patch to all supported branches.

In commit c1352052ef1d4eeb2eb1d822a207ddc2d106cb13, I implemented an
optimization that assumed that a function's argument expressions would
either always return a set (ie multiple rows), or always not. This is
wrong however: we allow CASE expressions in which some arms return a set
of some type and others just return a scalar of that type. There may be
other examples as well. To fix, replace the run-time test of whether an
argument returned a set with a static precheck (expression_returns_set).
This adds a little bit of query startup overhead, but it seems barely
measurable.
Per bug #8228 from David Johnston. This has been broken since 8.0,
so patch all supported branches.

If pause_at_recovery_target is set, recovery pauses *before* applying the
target record, even if recovery_target_inclusive is set. If you then
continue with pg_xlog_replay_resume(), it will apply the target record
before ending recovery. In other words, if you log in while it's paused
and verify that the database looks OK, ending recovery changes its state
again, possibly destroying data that you were tring to salvage with PITR.
Backpatch to 9.1, this has been broken since pause_at_recovery_target was
added.

When starting WAL replay from an online checkpoint, the last replayed WAL
record variable was initialized using the checkpoint record's location, even
though the records between the REDO location and the checkpoint record had
not been replayed yet. That was noted as "slightly confusing" but harmless
in the comment, but in some cases, it fooled CheckRecoveryConsistency to
incorrectly conclude that we had already reached a consistent state
immediately at the beginning of WAL replay. That caused the system to accept
read-only connections in hot standby mode too early, and also PANICs with
message "WAL contains references to invalid pages".
Fix by initializing the variables to the REDO location instead.
In 9.2 and above, change CheckRecoveryConsistency() to use
lastReplayedEndRecPtr variable when checking if backup end location has
been reached. It was inconsistently using EndRecPtr for that check, but
lastReplayedEndRecPtr when checking min recovery point. It made no
difference before this patch, because in all the places where
CheckRecoveryConsistency was called the two variables were the same, but
it was always an accident waiting to happen, and would have been wrong
after this patch anyway.
Report and analysis by Tomonari Katsumata, bug #8686. Backpatch to 9.0,
where hot standby was introduced.

And the same for do_pg_stop_backup. The code in do_pg_* is not allowed
to access the catalogs. For manual base backups, the permissions
check can be handled in the calling function, and for streaming
base backups only users with the required permissions can get past
the authentication step in the first place.

If a tablespace was crated inside PGDATA it was backed up both as part
of the PGDATA backup and as the backup of the tablespace. Avoid this
by skipping any directory inside PGDATA that contains one of the active
tablespaces.
