This way sendAuthRequest doesn't need to know the details of all the
different authentication methods. This is in preparation for adding SCRAM
authentication, which will add yet another authentication request message
type, with different payload.

INSERT .. ON CONFLICT runs a pre-check of the possible conflicting
constraints before performing the actual speculative insertion. In case
the inserted tuple included TOASTed columns the ON CONFLICT condition
would be handled correctly in case the conflict was caught by the
pre-check, but if two transactions entered the speculative insertion
phase at the same time, one would have to re-try, and the code for
aborting a speculative insertion did not handle deleting the
speculatively inserted TOAST datums correctly.
TOAST deletion would fail with "ERROR: attempted to delete invisible
tuple" as we attempted to remove the TOAST tuples using
simple_heap_delete which reasoned that the given tuples should not be
visible to the command that wrote them.
This commit updates the heap_abort_speculative() function which aborts
the conflicting tuple to use itself, via toast_delete, for deleting
associated TOAST datums. Like before, the inserted toast rows are not
marked as being speculative.
This commit also adds a isolationtester spec test, exercising the
relevant code path. Unfortunately 9.5 cannot handle two waiting
sessions, and thus cannot execute this test.

regexp_match() is like regexp_matches(), but it disallows the 'g' flag
and in consequence does not need to return a set. Instead, it returns
a simple text array value, or NULL if there's no match. Previously people
usually got that behavior with a sub-select, but this way is considerably
more efficient.
Documentation adjusted so that regexp_match() is presented first and then
regexp_matches() is introduced as a more complicated version. This is
a bit historically revisionist but seems pedagogically better.
Still TODO: extend contrib/citext to support this function.

Slot creation did not clear all fields upon creation. After start the
memory is zeroed, but when a physical replication slot was created in
the shared memory of a previously existing logical slot, catalog_xmin
would not be cleared. That in turn would prevent vacuum from doing its
duties.
To fix initialize all the fields. To make similar future bugs less
likely, zero all of ReplicationSlotPersistentData, and re-order the
rest of the initialization to be in struct member order.

We implement a dozen or so parameterless functions that the SQL standard
defines special syntax for. Up to now, that was done by converting them
into more or less ad-hoc constructs such as "'now'::text::date". That's
messy for multiple reasons: it exposes what should be implementation
details to users, and performance is worse than it needs to be in several
cases. To improve matters, invent a new expression node type
SQLValueFunction that can represent any of these parameterless functions.
Bump catversion because this changes stored parsetrees for rules.

This is somewhat cosmetic, since as long as you know what you are looking
at, "10.0" is a serviceable substitute for "10". But there is a potential
for confusion between version numbers with minor numbers and those without
--- we don't want people asking "why is psql saying 10.0 when my server is
10.2". Therefore, back-patch as far as practical, which turns out to be
9.3. I could have redone the patch to use fprintf(stderr) in place of
psql_error(), but it seems more work than is warranted for branches that
will be EOL or nearly so by the time v10 comes out.
Although only psql seems to contain any code that needs this, I chose
to put the support function into fe_utils, since it seems likely we'll
need it in other client programs in future. (In 9.3-9.5, use dumputils.c,
the predecessor of fe_utils/string_utils.c.)
In HEAD, also fix the backend code that whines about loadable-library
version mismatch. I don't see much need to back-patch that.

Commit af33039317ddc4a0e38a02e2255c2bf453115fd2 aimed to reduce
leakage from tqueue.c, which is good. Unfortunately, by changing the
memory context in which all of gather_readnext() executes, it also
changed the context in which ExecShutdownGatherWorkers executes, which
is not good, because that function eventually causes a call to
ExecParallelRetrieveInstrumentation, which proceeds to allocate
planstate->worker_instrument in a short-lived context, causing a
crash.

Prior to commit 7882c3b0b95640e361f1533fe0f2d02e4e5d8610, it was
possible to use LWLocks within DSM segments, but that commit broke
this use case by switching from a doubly linked list to a circular
linked list. Switch back, using a new bit of general infrastructure

This is a good bit more complicated than the average new-version stamping
commit, because it includes various adjustments in pursuit of changing
from three-part to two-part version numbers. It's likely some further
work will be needed around that change; but this is enough to get through
the regression tests, at least in Unix builds.

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).

Per discussion, we should provide such functions to replace the lost
ability to discover AM properties by inspecting pg_am (cf commit
65c5fcd35). The added functionality is also meant to displace any code
that was looking directly at pg_index.indoption, since we'd rather not
believe that the bit meanings in that field are part of any client API
contract.
As future-proofing, define the SQL API to not assume that properties that
are currently AM-wide or index-wide will remain so unless they logically
must be; instead, expose them only when inquiring about a specific index
or even specific index column. Also provide the ability for an index
AM to override the behavior.
In passing, document pg_am.amtype, overlooked in commit 473b93287.

EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, TIMING OFF) would print an elapsed time of zero for
a trigger function, because no measurement has been taken but it printed
the field anyway. This isn't what EXPLAIN does elsewhere, so suppress it.
In the same vein, EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) with non-text output format
would print buffer I/O timing numbers even when no measurement has been
taken because track_io_timing is off. That seems not per policy, either,
so change it.

Commit 874fe3aea changed the command tag returned for CREATE MATVIEW/CREATE
TABLE AS ... WITH NO DATA, but missed that there was code in spi.c that
expected the command tag to always be "SELECT". Fortunately, the
consequence was only an Assert failure, so this oversight should have no
impact in production builds.
Since this code path was evidently un-exercised, add a regression test.

Several places in NUM_numpart_from_char(), which is called from the SQL
function to_number(text, text), could accidentally read one byte past
the end of the input buffer (which comes from the input text datum and
is not null-terminated).
1. One leading space character would be skipped, but there was no check
that the input was at least one byte long. This does not happen in
practice, but for defensiveness, add a check anyway.
2. Commit 4a3a1e2cf apparently accidentally doubled that code that skips
one space character (so that two spaces might be skipped), but there
was no overflow check before skipping the second byte. Fix by
removing that duplicate code.
3. A logic error would allow a one-byte over-read when looking for a
trailing sign (S) placeholder.
In each case, the extra byte cannot be read out directly, but looking at
it might cause a crash.
The third item was discovered by Piotr Stefaniak, the first two were
found and analyzed by Tom Lane and Peter Eisentraut.

ExecEvalCase() tried to save a cycle or two by passing
&econtext->caseValue_isNull as the isNull argument to its sub-evaluation of
the CASE value expression. If that subexpression itself contained a CASE,
then *isNull was an alias for econtext->caseValue_isNull within the
recursive call of ExecEvalCase(), leading to confusion about whether the
inner call's caseValue was null or not. In the worst case this could lead
to a core dump due to dereferencing a null pointer. Fix by not assigning
to the global variable until control comes back from the subexpression.
Also, avoid using the passed-in isNull pointer transiently for evaluation
of WHEN expressions. (Either one of these changes would have been
sufficient to fix the known misbehavior, but it's clear now that each of
these choices was in itself dangerous coding practice and best avoided.
There do not seem to be any similar hazards elsewhere in execQual.c.)
Also, it was possible for inlining of a SQL function that implements the
equality operator used for a CASE comparison to result in one CASE
expression's CaseTestExpr node being inserted inside another CASE
expression. This would certainly result in wrong answers since the
improperly nested CaseTestExpr would be caused to return the inner CASE's
comparison value not the outer's. If the CASE values were of different
data types, a crash might result; moreover such situations could be abused
to allow disclosure of portions of server memory. To fix, teach
inline_function to check for "bare" CaseTestExpr nodes in the arguments of
a function to be inlined, and avoid inlining if there are any.

If ANALYZE found no repeated non-null entries in its sample, it set the
column's stadistinct value to -1.0, intending to indicate that the entries
are all distinct. But what this value actually means is that the number
of distinct values is 100% of the table's rowcount, and thus it was
overestimating the number of distinct values by however many nulls there
are. This could lead to very poor selectivity estimates, as for example
in a recent report from Andreas Joseph Krogh. We should discount the
stadistinct value by whatever we've estimated the nulls fraction to be.
(That is what will happen if we choose to use a negative stadistinct for
a column that does have repeated entries, so this code path was just
inconsistent.)
In addition to fixing the stadistinct entries stored by several different
ANALYZE code paths, adjust the logic where get_variable_numdistinct()
forces an "all distinct" estimate on the basis of finding a relevant unique
index. Unique indexes don't reject nulls, so there's no reason to assume
that the null fraction doesn't apply.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Back-patching is a bit of a judgment
call, but this problem seems to affect only a few users (else we'd have
identified it long ago), and it's bad enough when it does happen that
destabilizing plan choices in a worse direction seems unlikely.

Discussion of commit 3e2f3c2e4 exposed a problem that is of longer
standing: since we don't detoast data while sticking it into a portal's
holdStore for PORTAL_ONE_RETURNING and PORTAL_UTIL_SELECT queries, and we
release the query's snapshot as soon as we're done loading the holdStore,
later readout of the holdStore can do TOAST fetches against data that can
no longer be seen by any of the session's live snapshots. This means that
a concurrent VACUUM could remove the TOAST data before we can fetch it.
Commit 3e2f3c2e4 exposed the problem by showing that sometimes we had *no*
live snapshots while fetching TOAST data, but we'd be at risk anyway.
I believe this code was all right when written, because our management of a
session's exposed xmin was such that the TOAST references were safe until
end of transaction. But that's no longer true now that we can advance or
clear our PGXACT.xmin intra-transaction.
To fix, copy the query's snapshot during FillPortalStore() and save it in
the Portal; release it only when the portal is dropped. This essentially
implements a policy that we must hold a relevant snapshot whenever we
access potentially-toasted data. We had already come to that conclusion
in other places, cf commits 08e261cbc94ce9a7 and ec543db77b6b72f2.
I'd have liked to add a regression test case for this, but I didn't see
a way to make one that's not unreasonably bloated; it seems to require
returning a toasted value to the client, and those will be big.
In passing, improve PortalRunUtility() so that it positively verifies
that its ending PopActiveSnapshot() call will pop the expected snapshot,
removing a rather shaky assumption about which utility commands might
do their own PopActiveSnapshot(). There's no known bug here, but now
that we're actively referencing the snapshot it's almost free to make
this code a bit more bulletproof.
We might want to consider back-patching something like this into older
branches, but it would be prudent to let it prove itself more in HEAD
beforehand.

In _bt_unlink_halfdead_page(), we might fail to find an immediate left
sibling of the target page, perhaps because of corruption of the page
sibling links. The code intends to cope with this by just abandoning
the deletion attempt; but what actually happens is that it fails outright
due to releasing the same buffer lock twice. (And error recovery masks
a second problem, which is possible leakage of a pin on another page.)
Seems to have been introduced by careless refactoring in commit efada2b8e.
Since there are multiple cases to consider, let's make releasing the buffer
lock in the failure case the responsibility of _bt_unlink_halfdead_page()
not its caller.
Also, avoid fetching the leaf page's left-link again after we've dropped
lock on the page. This is probably harmless, but it's not exactly good
coding practice.

Some conditions resulted in "return" directly out of a PG_TRY block,

failed to restore the state of set_latch_on_sigusr1.
This is a bug only in 9.5; in HEAD it was accidentally fixed by commit
db0f6cad4, which removed the surrounding PG_TRY block. However, I (tgl)
chose to apply the patch to HEAD as well, because the old coding was
gratuitously different from WaitForBackgroundWorkerStartup(), and there

Previously, we tested for MVCC snapshots to see whether they were too
old, but not TOAST snapshots, which can lead to complaints about missing
TOAST chunks if those chunks are subject to early pruning. Ideally,
the threshold lsn and timestamp for a TOAST snapshot would be that of
the corresponding MVCC snapshot, but since we have no way of deciding
which MVCC snapshot was used to fetch the TOAST pointer, use the oldest
active or registered snapshot instead.
Reported by Andres Freund, who also sketched out what the fix should
look like. Patch by me, reviewed by Amit Kapila.

Previously, if an INSERT with multiple rows of VALUES had indirection
(array subscripting or field selection) in its target-columns list, the
parser handled that by applying transformAssignedExpr() to each element
of each VALUES row independently. This led to having ArrayRef assignment
nodes or FieldStore nodes in each row of the VALUES RTE. That works for
simple cases, but in bug #14265 Nuri Boardman points out that it fails
if there are multiple assignments to elements/fields of the same target
column. For such cases to work, rewriteTargetListIU() has to nest the
ArrayRefs or FieldStores together to produce a single expression to be
assigned to the column. But it failed to find them in the top-level
targetlist and issued an error about "multiple assignments to same column".
We could possibly fix this by teaching the rewriter to apply
rewriteTargetListIU to each VALUES row separately, but that would be messy
(it would change the output rowtype of the VALUES RTE, for example) and
inefficient. Instead, let's fix the parser so that the VALUES RTE outputs
are just the user-specified values, cast to the right type if necessary,
and then the ArrayRefs or FieldStores are applied in the top-level
targetlist to Vars representing the RTE's outputs. This is the same
parsetree representation already used for similar cases with INSERT/SELECT
syntax, so it allows simplifications in ruleutils.c, which no longer needs
to treat INSERT-from-multiple-VALUES as its own special case.
This implementation works by applying transformAssignedExpr to the VALUES
entries as before, and then stripping off any ArrayRefs or FieldStores it
adds. With lots of VALUES rows it would be noticeably more efficient to
not add those nodes in the first place. But that's just an optimization
not a bug fix, and there doesn't seem to be any good way to do it without
significant refactoring. (A non-invasive answer would be to apply
transformAssignedExpr + stripping to just the first VALUES row, and then
just forcibly cast remaining rows to the same data types exposed in the
first row. But this way would lead to different, not-INSERT-specific
errors being reported in casting failure cases, so it doesn't seem very
nice.) So leave that for later; this patch at least isn't making the
per-row parsing work worse, and it does make the finished parsetree
smaller, saving rewriter and planner work.
Catversion bump because stored rules containing such INSERTs would need
to change. Because of that, no back-patch, even though this is a very
long-standing bug.

We don't want postmaster child processes to contain a copy of the
postmaster's PostmasterContext. That would be a waste of memory at least,
and at worst a security issue, since there are copies of the semi-sensitive
pg_hba and pg_ident data in there. All other child process types delete
the PostmasterContext after forking, but the original coding of the
background worker patch (commit da07a1e85) did not do so. It appears
that the only reason for that was to avoid copying the bgworker's
MyBgworkerEntry out of that context; but the couple of additional
statements needed to do so are hardly good justification for it. Hence,
copy that data and then clear the context as other child processes do.
Because this patch changes the memory context in which a bgworker function
gains control, back-patching it would be a bit risky, so we won't fix this
in back branches. The "security" complaint is pretty thin anyway for
generic bgworkers; only with the introduction of parallel query is there
any question of running untrusted code in a bgworker process.

This is apparently harmless on Windows, but on Unix it results in an
assertion failure. We'd not noticed because this code doesn't get
used on Unix unless you build with -DEXEC_BACKEND. Bug was evidently
introduced by sloppy refactoring in commit 31c453165.

As noted by Alvaro, there are CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() calls in the shm_mq.c
functions called by HandleParallelMessages(). I believe they're all
unreachable since we always pass nowait = true, but it doesn't seem like
a great idea to assume that no such call will ever be reachable from
HandleParallelMessages(). If that did happen, there would be a risk of a
recursive call to HandleParallelMessages(), which it does not appear to be
designed for --- for example, there's nothing that would prevent
out-of-order processing of received messages. And certainly such cases
cannot easily be tested. So let's prevent it by holding off interrupts for
the duration of the function. Back-patch to 9.5 which contains identical
code.

Setting it to 0 is probably not useful in practice, but it allows
testing of situations without available background worker slots.

ParallelMessagePending *must* be marked volatile, because it's set
by a signal handler. On the other hand, it's pointless for
HandleParallelMessageInterrupt to save/restore errno; that must be,
and is, done at the outer level of the SIGUSR1 signal handler.
Calling CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() inside HandleParallelMessages, which itself
is called from CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(), seems both useless and hazardous.
The comment claiming that this is needed to handle the error queue going
away is certainly misguided, in any case.
Improve a couple of error message texts, and use
ERRCODE_OBJECT_NOT_IN_PREREQUISITE_STATE to report loss of parallel worker
connection, since that's what's used in e.g. tqueue.c. (Maybe it would be
worth inventing a dedicated ERRCODE for this type of failure? But I do not
think ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR is appropriate.)
Minor stylistic cleanups.

This coding pattern creates a race condition, because if an interesting
interrupt happens after we've checked InterruptPending but before we reset
our latch, the latch-setting done by the signal handler would get lost,
and then we might block at WaitLatch in the next iteration without ever
noticing the interrupt condition. You can put the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS
before WaitLatch or after ResetLatch, but not between them.
Aside from fixing the bugs, add some explanatory comments to latch.h
to perhaps forestall the next person from making the same mistake.
In HEAD, also replace gather_readnext's direct call of
HandleParallelMessages with CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS. It does not seem clean
or useful for this one caller to bypass ProcessInterrupts and go straight
to HandleParallelMessages; not least because that fails to consider the
InterruptPending flag, resulting in useless work both here
(if InterruptPending isn't set) and in the next CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS call
(if it is).
This thinko seems to have been introduced in the initial coding of
storage/ipc/shm_mq.c (commit ec9037df2), and then blindly copied into all
the subsequent parallel-query support logic. Back-patch relevant hunks
to 9.4 to extirpate the error everywhere.

When doing record typmod remapping, tqueue.c did fresh catalog lookups
for each tuple it processed, which was pretty horrible performance-wise
(it seemed to about halve the already none-too-quick speed of bulk reads
in parallel mode). Worse, it insisted on putting bits of that data into
TopMemoryContext, from where it never freed them, causing a
session-lifespan memory leak. (I suppose this was coded with the idea
that the sender process would quit after finishing the query ---
but the receiver uses the same code.)
Restructure to avoid repetitive catalog lookups and to keep that data
in a query-lifespan context, in or below the context where the
TQueueDestReceiver or TupleQueueReader itself lives.
Fix some other bugs such as continuing to use a tupledesc after
releasing our refcount on it. Clean up cavalier datatype choices
(typmods are int32, please, not int, and certainly not Oid). Improve
comments and error message wording.

TupleQueueReaderNext() leaks like a sieve if it has to do any tuple
disassembly/reconstruction. While we could try to clean up its allocations
piecemeal, it seems like a better idea just to insist that it should be run
in a short-lived memory context, so that any transient space goes away
automatically. I chose to have nodeGather.c switch into its existing
per-tuple context before the call, rather than inventing a separate
context inside tqueue.c.
This is sufficient to stop all leakage in the simple case I exhibited
earlier today (see link below), but it does not deal with leaks induced
in more complex cases by tqueue.c's insistence on using TopMemoryContext
for data that it's not actually trying hard to keep track of. That issue
is intertwined with another major source of inefficiency, namely failure
to cache lookup results across calls, so it seems best to deal with it
separately.
In passing, improve some comments, and modify gather_readnext's method for
deciding when it's visited all the readers so that it's more obviously
correct. (I'm not actually convinced that the previous code *is*
correct in the case of a reader deletion; it certainly seems fragile.)
