* Suppress more variable-set-but-not-used warnings from clang 15.Tom Lane2022-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mop up assorted set-but-not-used warnings in the back branches. This includes back-patching relevant fixes from commit 152c9f7b8 the rest of the way, but there are also several cases that did not appear in HEAD. Some of those we'd fixed in a retail way but not back-patched, and others I think just got rewritten out of existence during nearby refactoring. While here, also back-patch b1980f6d0 (PL/Tcl: Fix compiler warnings with Tcl 8.6) into 9.2, so that that branch compiles warning-free with modern Tcl. Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch all the way to 9.2.

* Suppress variable-set-but-not-used warnings from clang 15.Tom Lane2022-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | clang 15+ will issue a set-but-not-used warning when the only use of a variable is in autoincrements (e.g., "foo++;"). That's perfectly sensible, but it detects a few more cases that we'd not noticed before. Silence the warnings with our usual methods, such as PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, or in one case by actually removing a useless variable. One thing that we can't nicely get rid of is that with %pure-parser, Bison emits "yynerrs" as a local variable that falls foul of this warning. To silence those, I inserted "(void) yynerrs;" in the top-level productions of affected grammars. Per recently-established project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch to 9.5, which is as far as these patches go without issues. (A preliminary check shows that the prior branches need some other set-but-not-used cleanups too, so I'll leave them for another day.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/514615.1663615243@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Future-proof the recursion inside ExecShutdownNode().Tom Lane2022-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The API contract for planstate_tree_walker() callbacks is that they take a PlanState pointer and a context pointer. Somebody figured they could save a couple lines of code by ignoring that, and passing ExecShutdownNode itself as the walker even though it has but one argument. Somewhat remarkably, we've gotten away with that so far. However, it seems clear that the upcoming C2x standard means to forbid such cases, and compilers that actively break such code likely won't be far behind. So spend the extra few lines of code to do it honestly with a separate walker function. In HEAD, we might as well go further and remove ExecShutdownNode's useless return value. I left that as-is in back branches though, to forestall complaints about ABI breakage. Back-patch, with the thought that this might become of practical importance before our stable branches are all out of service. It doesn't seem to be fixing any live bug on any currently known platform, however. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/208054.1663534665@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Improve plpgsql's ability to handle arguments declared as RECORD.Tom Lane2022-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Treat arguments declared as RECORD as if that were a polymorphic type (which it is, sort of), in that we substitute the actual argument type while forming the function cache lookup key. This allows the specific composite type to be known in some cases where it was not before, at the cost of making a separate function cache entry for each named composite type that's passed to the function during a session. The particular symptom discussed in bug #17610 could be solved in other more-efficient ways, but only at the cost of considerable development work, and there are other cases where we'd still fail without this. Per bug #17610 from Martin Jurča. Back-patch to v11 where we first allowed plpgsql functions to be declared as taking type RECORD.

* Expand palloc/pg_malloc API for more type safetyPeter Eisentraut2022-09-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds additional variants of palloc, pg_malloc, etc. that encapsulate common usage patterns and provide more type safety. Specifically, this adds palloc_object(), palloc_array(), and repalloc_array(), which take the type name of the object to be allocated as its first argument and cast the return as a pointer to that type. There are also palloc0_object() and palloc0_array() variants for initializing with zero, and pg_malloc_*() variants of all of the above. Inspired by the talloc library. This is backpatched from master so that future backpatchable code can make use of these APIs. This patch by itself does not contain any users of these APIs.

* Fix possible omission of variable storage markers in ECPG.Tom Lane2022-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ECPG preprocessor converted code such as static varchar str1[10], str2[20], str3[30]; into static struct varchar_1 { int len; char arr[ 10 ]; } str1 ; struct varchar_2 { int len; char arr[ 20 ]; } str2 ; struct varchar_3 { int len; char arr[ 30 ]; } str3 ; thus losing the storage attribute for the later variables. Repeat the declaration for each such variable. (Note that this occurred only for variables declared "varchar" or "bytea", which may help explain how it escaped detection for so long.)

* Choose FK name correctly during partition attachmentAlvaro Herrera2022-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION, if the name of a parent's foreign key constraint is already used on the partition, the code tries to choose another one before the FK attributes list has been populated, so the resulting constraint name was "<relname>__fkey" instead of "<relname>_<attrs>_fkey". Repair, and add a test case. Backpatch to 12. In 11, the code to attach a partition was not smart enough to cope with conflicting constraint names, so the problem doesn't exist there.

* Further fixes for MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK fix.Tom Lane2022-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some more things I didn't think about in commits 3f7323cbb et al: MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK subplans might have been converted to initplans instead of regular subplans, in which case they won't show up in the modified targetlist. Fortunately, this would only happen if they have no input parameters, which means that the problem we originally needed to fix can't happen with them. Therefore, there's no need to clone their output parameters, and thus it doesn't hurt that we'll fail to see them in the first pass over the targetlist. Nonetheless, this complicates matters greatly, because now we have to distinguish output Params of initplans (which shouldn't get renumbered) from those of regular subplans (which should). This also breaks the simplistic scheme I used of assuming that the subplans found in the targetlist have consecutive subLinkIds. We really can't avoid the need to know the subplans' subLinkIds in this code. To fix that, add subLinkId as the last field of SubPlan. We can get away with that change in back branches because SubPlan nodes will never be stored in the catalogs, and there's no ABI break for external code that might be looking at the existing fields of SubPlan. Secondly, rewriteTargetListIU might have rolled up multiple FieldStores or SubscriptingRefs into one targetlist entry, breaking the assumption that there's at most one Param to fix per targetlist entry. (That assumption is OK I think in the ruleutils.c code I stole the logic from in 18f51083c, because that only deals with pre-rewrite query trees. But it's definitely not OK here.) Abandon that shortcut and just do a full tree walk on the targetlist to ensure we find all the Params we have to change. Per bug #17606 from Andre Lin. As before, only v10-v13 need the patch.

* Backpatch nbtree page deletion hardening.Peter Geoghegan2022-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Postgres 14 commit 5b861baa taught nbtree VACUUM to tolerate buggy opclasses. VACUUM's inability to locate a to-be-deleted page's downlink in the parent page was logged instead of throwing an error. VACUUM could just press on with vacuuming the index, and vacuuming the table as a whole. There are now anecdotal reports of this error causing problems that were much more disruptive than the underlying index corruption ever could be. Anything that makes VACUUM unable to make forward progress against one table/index ultimately risks making the system enter xidStopLimit mode. There is no good reason to take any chances here, so backpatch the hardening commit.

* Fix some possibly latent bugs in slab.cDavid Rowley2022-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Primarily, this fixes an incorrect calculation in SlabCheck which was looking in the wrong byte for the sentinel check. The reason that we've never noticed this before in the form of a failing sentinel check is because the pre-check to this always fails because all current core users of slab contexts have a chunk size which is already MAXALIGNed, therefore there's never any space for the sentinel byte. It is possible that an extension needs to use a slab context and if they do with a chunk size that's not MAXALIGNed, then they'll likely get errors about overwritten sentinel bytes. Additionally, this patch changes various calculations which are being done based on the sizeof(SlabBlock). Currently, sizeof(SlabBlock) is a multiple of 8, therefore sizeof(SlabBlock) is the same as MAXALIGN(sizeof(SlabBlock)), however, if we were to ever have to add any fields to that struct as part of a bug fix, then SlabAlloc could end up returning a non-MAXALIGNed pointer. To be safe, let's ensure we always MAXALIGN sizeof(SlabBlock) before using it in any calculations. This patch has already been applied to master in d5ee4db0e.

* Port regress-python3-mangle.mk to Solaris "sed", redux.Tom Lane2022-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per experimentation and buildfarm failures, Solaris' "sed" has got some kind of problem with regexes that use both '*' and '[[:alpha:]]'. We can work around that by replacing '[[:alpha:]]' with '[a-zA-Z]', which is plenty good enough for our purposes, especially since this is only needed in long-stable branches. I chose to flat-out remove the second pattern of this sort, 's/except \([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z.]*\), *\([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z]*\):/except \1 as \2:/g' because we haven't needed it since 8.4. Follow-on to c3556f6fa, which probably missed catching this because the problematic pattern was already gone when that patch was written. Patch v10-v12 only, as the problem manifests only there. We have a line of dead code in v13-v14, which isn't worth changing, and the whole mess is gone as of v15. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/165561.1661984701@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Prevent long-term memory leakage in autovacuum launcher.Tom Lane2022-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | get_database_list() failed to restore the caller's memory context, instead leaving current context set to TopMemoryContext which is how CommitTransactionCommand() leaves it. The callers both think they are using short-lived contexts, for the express purpose of not having to worry about cleaning up individual allocations. The net effect therefore is that supposedly short-lived allocations could accumulate indefinitely in the launcher's TopMemoryContext. Although this has been broken for a long time, it seems we didn't have any obvious memory leak here until v15's rearrangement of the stats logic. I (tgl) am not entirely convinced that there's no other leak at all, though, and we're surely at risk of adding one in future back-patched fixes. So back-patch to all supported branches, even though this may be only a latent bug in pre-v15.

* In the Snowball dictionary, don't try to stem excessively-long words.Tom Lane2022-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the input word exceeds 1000 bytes, don't pass it to the stemmer; just return it as-is after case folding. Such an input is surely not a word in any human language, so whatever the stemmer might do to it would be pretty dubious in the first place. Adding this restriction protects us against a known recursion-to-stack-overflow problem in the Turkish stemmer, and it seems like good insurance against any other safety or performance issues that may exist in the Snowball stemmers. (I note, for example, that they contain no CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS calls, so we really don't want them running for a long time.) The threshold of 1000 bytes is arbitrary. An alternative definition could have been to treat such words as stopwords, but that seems like a bigger break from the old behavior. Per report from Egor Chindyaskin and Alexander Lakhin. Thanks to Olly Betts for the recommendation to fix it this way. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1661334672.728714027@f473.i.mail.ru
* On NetBSD, force dynamic symbol resolution at postmaster start.Tom Lane2022-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default of lazy symbol resolution means that when the postmaster first reaches the select() call in ServerLoop, it'll need to resolve the link to that libc entry point. NetBSD's dynamic loader takes an internal lock while doing that, and if a signal interrupts the operation then there is a risk of self-deadlock should the signal handler do anything that requires that lock, as several of the postmaster signal handlers do. The window for this is pretty narrow, and timing considerations make it unlikely that a signal would arrive right then anyway. But it's semi-repeatable on slow single-CPU machines, and in principle the race could happen with any hardware. The least messy solution to this is to force binding of dynamic symbols at postmaster start, using the "-z now" linker option. While we're at it, also use "-z relro" so as to provide a small security gain. It's not entirely clear whether any other platforms share this issue, but for now we'll assume it's NetBSD-specific. (We might later try to use "-z now" on more platforms for performance reasons, but that would not likely be something to back-patch.) Report and patch by me; the idea to fix it this way is from Andres Freund. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3384826.1661802235@sss.pgh.pa.us
* Prevent WAL corruption after a standby promotion.Robert Haas2022-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a PostgreSQL instance performing archive recovery but not using standby mode is promoted, and the last WAL segment that it attempted to read ended in a partial record, the previous code would create invalid WAL on the new timeline. The WAL from the previously timeline would be copied to the new timeline up until the end of the last valid record, but instead of beginning to write WAL at immediately afterwards, the promoted server would write an overwrite contrecord at the beginning of the next segment. The end of the previous segment would be left as all-zeroes, resulting in failures if anything tried to read WAL from that file. The root of the issue is that ReadRecord() decides whether to set abortedRecPtr and missingContrecPtr based on the value of StandbyMode, but ReadRecord() switches to a new timeline based on the value of ArchiveRecoveryRequested. We shouldn't try to write an overwrite contrecord if we're switching to a new timeline, so change the test in ReadRecod() to check ArchiveRecoveryRequested instead. Code fix by Dilip Kumar. Comments by me incorporating suggested language from Álvaro Herrera. Further review from Kyotaro Horiguchi and Sami Imseih.

* Repair rare failure of MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK subplans in inherited updates.Tom Lane2022-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prior to v14, if we have a MULTIEXPR SubPlan (that is, use of the syntax UPDATE ... SET (c1, ...) = (SELECT ...)) in an UPDATE with an inherited or partitioned target table, inheritance_planner() will clone the targetlist and therefore also the MULTIEXPR SubPlan and the Param nodes referencing it for each child target table. Up to now, we've allowed all the clones to share the underlying subplan as well as the output parameter IDs -- that is, the runtime ParamExecData slots. That technique is borrowed from the far older code that supports initplans, and it works okay in that case because the cloned SubPlan nodes are essentially identical. So it doesn't matter which one of the clones the shared ParamExecData.execPlan field might point to. However, this fails to hold for MULTIEXPR SubPlans, because they can have nonempty "args" lists (values to be passed into the subplan), and those lists could get mutated to different states in the various clones. In the submitted reproducer, as well as the test case added here, one clone contains Vars with varno OUTER_VAR where another has INNER_VAR, because the child tables are respectively on the outer or inner side of the join. Sharing the execPlan pointer can result in trying to evaluate an args list that doesn't match the local execution state, with mayhem ensuing. The result often is to trigger consistency checks in the executor, but I believe this could end in a crash or incorrect updates. To fix, assign new Param IDs to each of the cloned SubPlans, so that they don't share ParamExecData slots at runtime. It still seems fine for the clones to share the underlying subplan, and extra ParamExecData slots are cheap enough that this fix shouldn't cost much. This has been busted since we invented MULTIEXPR SubPlans in 9.5. Probably the lack of previous reports is because query plans in which the different clones of a MULTIEXPR mutate to effectively-different states are pretty rare. There's no issue in v14 and later, because without inheritance_planner() there's never a reason to clone MULTIEXPR SubPlans. Per bug #17596 from Andre Lin. Patch v10-v13 only.

So could next() in the regex compiler, but that case is better fixed by converting its tail recursion to a loop. (We probably get better code that way too, since next() can now be inlined into its sole caller.) There remains a reachable stack overrun in the Turkish stemmer, but we'll need some advice from the Snowball people about how to fix that. Per report from Egor Chindyaskin and Alexander Lakhin.

* Fix subtly-incorrect matching of parent and child partitioned indexes.Tom Lane2022-08-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a partitioned index, DefineIndex tries to identify any existing indexes on the partitions that match the partitioned index, so that it can absorb those as child indexes instead of building new ones. Part of the matching is to compare IndexInfo structs --- but that wasn't done quite right. We're comparing the IndexInfo built within DefineIndex itself to one made from existing catalog contents by BuildIndexInfo. Notably, while BuildIndexInfo will run index expressions and predicates through expression preprocessing, that has not happened to DefineIndex's struct. The result is failure to match and subsequent creation of duplicate indexes. The easiest and most bulletproof fix is to build a new IndexInfo using BuildIndexInfo, thereby guaranteeing that the processing done is identical. While here, let's also extract the opfamily and collation data from the new partitioned index, removing ad-hoc logic that duplicated knowledge about how those are constructed. Per report from Christophe Pettus. Back-patch to v11 where we invented partitioned indexes. Richard Guo and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/8864BFAA-81FD-4BF9-8E06-7DEB8D4164ED@thebuild.com

* Preserve memory context of VarStringSortSupport buffers.Tom Lane2022-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When enlarging the work buffers of a VarStringSortSupport object, varstrfastcmp_locale was careful to keep them in the ssup_cxt memory context; but varstr_abbrev_convert just used palloc(). The latter creates a hazard that the buffers could be freed out from under the VarStringSortSupport object, resulting in stomping on whatever gets allocated in that memory later. In practice, because we only use this code for ICU collations (cf. 3df9c374e), the problem is confined to use of ICU collations. I believe it may have been unreachable before the introduction of incremental sort, too, as traditional sorting usually just uses one context for the duration of the sort. We could fix this by making the broken stanzas in varstr_abbrev_convert match the non-broken ones in varstrfastcmp_locale. However, it seems like a better idea to dodge the issue altogether by replacing the pfree-and-allocate-anew coding with repalloc, which automatically preserves the chunk's memory context. This fix does add a few cycles because repalloc will copy the chunk's content, which the existing coding assumes is useless. However, we don't expect that these buffer enlargement operations are performance-critical. Besides that, it's far from obvious that copying the buffer contents isn't required, since these stanzas make no effort to mark the buffers invalid by resetting last_returned, cache_blob, etc. That seems to be safe upon examination, but it's fragile and could easily get broken in future, which wouldn't get revealed in testing with short-to-moderate-size strings. Per bug #17584 from James Inform. Whether or not the issue is reachable in the older branches, this code has been broken on its own terms from its introduction, so patch all the way back.

* Catch stack overflow when recursing in transformFromClauseItem().Tom Lane2022-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most parts of the parser can expect that the stack overflow check in transformExprRecurse() will trigger before things get desperate. However, transformFromClauseItem() can recurse directly to self without having analyzed any expressions, so it's possible to drive it to a stack-overrun crash. Add a check to prevent that. Per bug #17583 from Egor Chindyaskin. Back-patch to all supported branches. Richard Guo Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17583-33be55b9f981f75c@postgresql.org
* Add missing fields to _outConstraint()Peter Eisentraut2022-08-13
| | | | | | | | As of 897795240cfaaed724af2f53ed2c50c9862f951f, check constraints can be declared invalid. But that patch didn't update _outConstraint() to also show the relevant struct fields (which were only applicable to foreign keys before that). This currently only affects debugging output, so no impact in practice.
* pg_upgrade: Fix some minor code issuesPeter Eisentraut2022-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | 96ef3b8ff1cf1950e897fd2f766d4bd9ef0d5d56 accidentally copied a not applicable comment from the float8_pass_by_value code to the data_checksums code. Remove that. 87d3b35a1ca31a9d947a8f919a6006679216dff0 changed pg_upgrade to checking the checksum version rather than just the Boolean presence of checksums, but didn't change the field type in its ControlData struct from bool. So this would not work correctly if there ever is a checksum version larger than 1.
* Fix _outConstraint() for "identity" constraintsPeter Eisentraut2022-08-12
| | | | | | | | | The set of fields printed by _outConstraint() in the CONSTR_IDENTITY case didn't match the set of fields actually used in that case. (The code was probably uncarefully copied from the CONSTR_DEFAULT case.) Fix that by using the right set of fields. Since there is no read support for this node type, this is really just for debugging output right now, so it doesn't affect anything important.

* Fix catalog lookup with the wrong snapshot during logical decoding.Amit Kapila2022-08-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart, if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong snapshot. To fix this problem, this changes the snapshot builder so that it remembers the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. To avoid ABI breakage, we store the array of the initial running transactions in the static variables InitialRunningXacts and NInitialRunningXacts, instead of storing those in SnapBuild or ReorderBuffer. This approach has a false positive; we could end up adding the transaction that didn't change catalog to the snapshot since we cannot distinguish whether the transaction has catalog changes only by checking the COMMIT record. It doesn't have the information on which (sub) transaction has catalog changes, and XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS doesn't necessarily indicate that the transaction has catalog change. But that won't be a problem since we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs. On the master branch, we took a more future-proof approach by writing catalog modifying transactions to the serialized snapshot which avoids the above false positive. But we cannot backpatch it because of a change in the SnapBuild.

* Fix handling of R/W expanded datums that are passed to SQL functions.Tom Lane2022-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fmgr_sql must make expanded-datum arguments read-only, because it's possible that the function body will pass the argument to more than one callee function. If one of those functions takes the datum's R/W property as license to scribble on it, then later callees will see an unexpected value, leading to wrong answers. From a performance standpoint, it'd be nice to skip this in the common case that the argument value is passed to only one callee. However, detecting that seems fairly hard, and certainly not something that I care to attempt in a back-patched bug fix. Per report from Adam Mackler. This has been broken since we invented expanded datums, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* In extensions, don't replace objects not belonging to the extension.Tom Lane2022-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, if an extension script did CREATE OR REPLACE and there was an existing object not belonging to the extension, it would overwrite the object and adopt it into the extension. This is problematic, first because the overwrite is probably unintentional, and second because we didn't change the object's ownership. Thus a hostile user could create an object in advance of an expected CREATE EXTENSION command, and would then have ownership rights on an extension object, which could be modified for trojan-horse-type attacks. Hence, forbid CREATE OR REPLACE of an existing object unless it already belongs to the extension. (Note that we've always forbidden replacing an object that belongs to some other extension; only the behavior for previously-free-standing objects changes here.) For the same reason, also fail CREATE IF NOT EXISTS when there is an existing object that doesn't belong to the extension. Our thanks to Sven Klemm for reporting this problem. Security: CVE-2022-2625

* Fix ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER to handle recursion correctlyAlvaro Herrera2022-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using ATSimpleRecursion() in ATPrepCmd() to do so as bbb927b4db9b did is not correct, because ATPrepCmd() can't distinguish between triggers that may be cloned and those that may not, so would wrongly try to recurse for the latter category of triggers. So this commit restores the code in EnableDisableTrigger() that 86f575948c77 had added to do the recursion, which would do it only for triggers that may be cloned, that is, row-level triggers. This also changes tablecmds.c such that ATExecCmd() is able to pass the value of ONLY flag down to EnableDisableTrigger() using its new 'recurse' parameter. This also fixes what seems like an oversight of 86f575948c77 that the recursion to partition triggers would only occur if EnableDisableTrigger() had actually changed the trigger. It is more apt to recurse to inspect partition triggers even if the parent's trigger didn't need to be changed: only then can we be certain that all descendants share the same state afterwards. Backpatch all the way back to 11, like bbb927b4db9b. Care is taken not to break ABI compatibility (and that no catversion bump is needed.)

* Reduce test runtime of src/test/modules/snapshot_too_old.Tom Lane2022-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sto_using_cursor and sto_using_select tests were coded to exercise every permutation of their test steps, but AFAICS there is no value in exercising more than one. This matters because each permutation costs about six seconds, thanks to the "pg_sleep(6)". Perhaps we could reduce that, but the useless permutations seem worth getting rid of in any case. (Note that sto_using_hash_index got it right already.) While here, clean up some other sloppiness such as an unused table. This doesn't make too much difference in interactive testing, since the wasted time is typically masked by parallelization with other tests. However, the buildfarm runs this as a serial step, which means we can expect to shave ~40 seconds from every buildfarm run. That makes it worth back-patching.

But we explicitly allow join RTEs to be overwidth, as long as you don't try to form their tuple result.) Per further discussion of bug #17561. As before, patch all branches.
