We only need that header when compiling with icc, since the gcc variant of
ia64_get_bsp() uses in-line assembly code. Per report from Frank Brendel,
the header doesn't exist on all IA64 platforms; so don't include it unless
we need it.

Specifically, this makes the workflow pg_dump -Fc -> pg_restore -> file
produce correct output for BLOBs when the source database has
standard_conforming_strings turned on. It was already okay when that was
off, or if pg_restore was told to restore directly into a database.
This is a back-port of commit b1732111f233bbb72788e92a627242ec28a85631 of
2009-08-04, with additional changes to emit old-style escaped bytea data
instead of hex-style. At the time, we had not heard of anyone encountering
the problem in the field, so I judged it not worth the risk of changing
back branches. Now we do have a report, from Bosco Rama, so back-patch
into 8.2 through 8.4. 9.0 and up are okay already.

If the slice to be assigned to was before the existing array lower bound
(requiring at least one null element to spring into existence to fill the
gap), the code miscalculated how many entries needed to be copied from
the old array's null bitmap. This could result in trashing the array's
data area (as seen in bug #5840 from Karsten Loesing), or worse.
This has been broken since we first allowed the behavior of assigning to
non-adjacent slices, in 8.2. Back-patch to all affected versions.

The "date" type supports a wider range of dates than int64 timestamps do.
However, there is pre-int64-timestamp code in the planner that assumes that
all date values can be converted to timestamp with impunity. Fortunately,
what we really need out of the conversion is always a double (float8)
value; so even when the date is out of timestamp's range it's possible to
produce a sane answer. All we need is a code path that doesn't try to
force the result into int64. Per trouble report from David Rericha.
Back-patch to all supported versions. Although this is surely a corner
case, there's not much point in advertising a date range wider than
timestamp's if we will choke on such values in unexpected places.

eval_const_expressions() can replace CaseTestExprs with constants when
the surrounding CASE's test expression is a constant. This confuses
ruleutils.c's heuristic for deparsing simple-form CASEs, leading to
Assert failures or "unexpected CASE WHEN clause" errors. I had put in
a hack solution for that years ago (see commit
514ce7a331c5bea8e55b106d624e55732a002295 of 2006-10-01), but bug #5794
from Peter Speck shows that that solution failed to cover all cases.
Fortunately, there's a much better way, which came to me upon reflecting
that Peter's "CASE TRUE WHEN" seemed pretty redundant: we can "simplify"
the simple-form CASE to the general form of CASE, by simply omitting the
constant test expression from the rebuilt CASE construct. This is
intuitively valid because there is no need for the executor to evaluate
the test expression at runtime; it will never be referenced, because any
CaseTestExprs that would have referenced it are now replaced by constants.
This won't save a whole lot of cycles, since evaluating a Const is pretty
cheap, but a cycle saved is a cycle earned. In any case it beats kluging
ruleutils.c still further. So this patch improves const-simplification
and reverts the previous change in ruleutils.c.
Back-patch to all supported branches. The bug exists in 8.1 too, but it's
out of warranty.

Recent versions of the Linux system header files cause xlogdefs.h to
believe that open_datasync should be the default sync method, whereas
formerly fdatasync was the default on Linux. open_datasync is a bad
choice, first because it doesn't actually outperform fdatasync (in fact
the reverse), and second because we try to use O_DIRECT with it, causing
failures on certain filesystems (e.g., ext4 with data=journal option).
This part of the patch is largely per a proposal from Marti Raudsepp.
More extensive changes are likely to follow in HEAD, but this is as much
change as we want to back-patch.
Also clean up confusing code and incorrect documentation surrounding the
fsync_writethrough option. Those changes shouldn't result in any actual
behavioral change, but I chose to back-patch them anyway to keep the
branches looking similar in this area.
In 9.0 and HEAD, also do some copy-editing on the WAL Reliability
documentation section.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since any of them might get used
on modern Linux versions.

There are some code paths, such as SPI_execute(), where we invoke
copyObject() on raw parse trees before doing parse analysis on them. Since
the bison grammar is capable of building heavily nested parsetrees while
itself using only minimal stack depth, this means that copyObject() can be
the front-line function that hits stack overflow before anything else does.
Accordingly, it had better have a check_stack_depth() call. I did a bit of
performance testing and found that this slows down copyObject() by only a
few percent, so the hit ought to be negligible in the context of complete
processing of a query.

There were corner cases in which the planner would attempt to inline such
a function, which would result in a failure at runtime due to loss of
information about exactly what the result record type is. Fix by disabling
inlining when the function's recorded result type is RECORD. There might
be some sub-cases where inlining could still be allowed, but this is a
simple and backpatchable fix, so leave refinements for another day.
Per bug #5777 from Nate Carson.

temporary indexes are not WAL-logged. We used a constant LSN for temporary
indexes, on the assumption that we don't need to worry about concurrent page
splits in temporary indexes because they're only visible to the current
session. But that assumption is wrong, it's possible to insert rows and
split pages in the same session, while a scan is in progress. For example,
by opening a cursor and fetching some rows, and INSERTing new rows before
fetching some more.
Fix by generating fake increasing LSNs, used in place of real LSNs in
temporary GiST indexes.

We must stay in the function's SPI context until done calling the iterator

Once we have found a non-null constant argument, there is no need to
examine additional arguments of the COALESCE. The previous coding got it
right only if the constant was in the first argument position; otherwise
it tried to simplify following arguments too, leading to unexpected
behavior like this:
regression=# select coalesce(f1, 42, 1/0) from int4_tbl;
ERROR: division by zero
It's a minor corner case, but a bug is a bug, so back-patch all the way.

This code was just plain wrong: what you got was not a line through the
given point but a line almost indistinguishable from the Y-axis, although
not truly vertical. The only caller that tries to use this function with
m == DBL_MAX is dist_ps_internal for the case where the lseg is horizontal;
it would end up producing the distance from the given point to the place
where the lseg's line crosses the Y-axis. That function is used by other
operators too, so there are several operators that could compute wrong
distances from a line segment to something else. Per bug #5745 from
jindiax.

The general design of memory management in Postgres is that intermediate
results computed by an expression are not freed until the end of the tuple
cycle. For expression indexes, ANALYZE has to re-evaluate each expression
for each of its sample rows, and it wasn't bothering to free intermediate
results until the end of processing of that index. This could lead to very
substantial leakage if the intermediate results were large, as in a recent
example from Jakub Ouhrabka. Fix by doing ResetExprContext for each sample
row. This necessitates adding a datumCopy step to ensure that the final
expression value isn't recycled too. Some quick testing suggests that this
change adds at worst about 10% to the time needed to analyze a table with
an expression index; which is annoying, but seems a tolerable price to pay
to avoid unexpected out-of-memory problems.

Per recent investigation, the register stack can grow faster than the

Some buildfarm members fail the test with the original depth of 10 levels,
apparently because they are running at the minimum max_stack_depth setting
of 100kB and using ~ 10k per recursion level. While it might be
interesting to try to figure out why they're eating so much stack, it isn't
likely that any fix for that would be back-patchable. So just change the
test to recurse only 5 levels. The extra levels don't prove anything
correctness-wise anyway.

We failed to record any dependency on the underlying table for an index
declared like "create index i on t (foo(t.*))". This would create trouble
if the table were dropped without previously dropping the index. To fix,
simplify some overly-cute code in index_create(), accepting the possibility
that sometimes the whole-table dependency will be redundant. Also document
this hazard in dependency.c. Per report from Kevin Grittner.
In passing, prevent a core dump in pg_get_indexdef() if the index's table
can't be found. I came across this while experimenting with Kevin's
example. Not sure it's a real issue when the catalogs aren't corrupt, but
might as well be cautious.

In general, expression execution state trees aren't re-entrantly usable,
since functions can store private state information in them.
For efficiency reasons, plpgsql tries to cache and reuse state trees for
"simple" expressions. It can get away with that most of the time, but it
can fail if the state tree is dirty from a previous failed execution (as
in an example from Alvaro) or is being used recursively (as noted by me).
Fix by tracking whether a state tree is in use, and falling back to the
"non-simple" code path if so. This results in a pretty considerable speed
hit when the non-simple path is taken, but the available alternatives seem
even more unpleasant because they add overhead in the simple path. Per
idea from Heikki.

The original coding was quite sloppy about handling the case where
XLogReadBuffer fails (because the page has since been deleted). This
would result in either "bad buffer id: 0" or an Assert failure during
replay, if indeed the page were no longer there. In a couple of places
it also neglected to check whether the change had already been applied,
which would probably result in corrupted index contents. I believe that
bug #5703 is an instance of the first problem. These issues could show up
without replication, but only if you were unfortunate enough to crash
between modification of a GIN index and the next checkpoint.
Back-patch to 8.2, which is as far back as GIN has WAL support.

In versions 8.2 and up, the grammar allows attaching ORDER BY, LIMIT,
FOR UPDATE, or WITH to VALUES, and hence to INSERT ... VALUES. But the
special-case code for VALUES in transformInsertStmt() wasn't expecting any
of those, and just ignored them, leading to unexpected results. Rather
than complicate the special-case path, just ensure that the presence of any
of those clauses makes us treat the query as if it had a general SELECT.

There are numerous methods by which a Perl or Tcl function can subvert
the behavior of another such function executed later; for example, by
redefining standard functions or operators called by the target function.
If the target function is SECURITY DEFINER, or is called by such a
function, this means that any ordinary SQL user with Perl or Tcl language
usage rights can do essentially anything with the privileges of the target
function's owner.
To close this security hole, create a separate Perl or Tcl interpreter for
each SQL userid under which plperl or pltcl functions are executed within
a session. However, all plperlu or pltclu functions run within a session
still share a single interpreter, since they all execute at the trust
level of a database superuser anyway.
Note: this change results in a functionality loss when libperl has been
built without the "multiplicity" option: it's no longer possible to call
plperl functions under different userids in one session, since such a
libperl can't support multiple interpreters in one process. However, such
a libperl already failed to support concurrent use of plperl and plperlu,
so it's likely that few people use such versions with Postgres.

It now emerges that the JDBC driver expects to be able to use pg_get_expr()

The only known case where this can happen is when show_session_authorization
is invoked in an autovacuum process, which is possible if an index function
calls it, as for example in bug #5669 from Andrew Geery. We could perhaps
try to return a sensible value, such as the name of the cluster-owning
superuser; but that seems like much more trouble than the case is worth,
and in any case it could create new possible failure modes. Simply
returning an empty string seems like the most appropriate fix.
Back-patch to all supported versions, even those before autovacuum, just
in case there's another way to provoke this crash.

In some situations the original coding led to corrupting the child AppendRel's
subpaths list, effectively adding other members of the parent's list to it.
This was usually masked because we never made any further use of the child's
list, but given the right combination of circumstances, we could do so. The
visible symptom would be a relation getting scanned twice, as in bug #5673
from David Schmitt.
Backpatch to 8.2, which is as far back as the risky coding appears. The
example submitted by David only fails in 8.4 and later, but I'm not convinced
that there aren't any even-more-obscure cases where 8.2 and 8.3 would fail.

SI invalidation events, rather than indirectly through the relcache.
In the previous coding, we had to flush a composite-type typcache entry
whenever we discarded the corresponding relcache entry. This caused problems
at least when testing with RELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE, as shown in recent report
from Jeff Davis, and might result in real-world problems given the kind of
unexpected relcache flush that that test mechanism is intended to model.
The new coding decouples relcache and typcache management, which is a good
thing anyway from a structural perspective. The cost is that we have to
search the typcache linearly to find entries that need to be flushed. There
are a couple of ways we could avoid that, but at the moment it's not clear
it's worth any extra trouble, because the typcache contains very few entries
in typical operation.
Back-patch to 8.2, the same as some other recent fixes in this general area.
The patch could be carried back to 8.0 with some additional work, but given
that it's only hypothetical whether we're fixing any problem observable in
the field, it doesn't seem worth the work now.

This patch changes _bt_split() and _bt_pagedel() to throw a plain ERROR,
rather than PANIC, for several cases that are reported from the field
from time to time:
* right sibling's left-link doesn't match;
* PageAddItem failure during _bt_split();
* parent page's next child isn't right sibling during _bt_pagedel().
In addition the error messages for these cases have been made a bit
more verbose, with additional values included.
The original motivation for PANIC here was to capture core dumps for
subsequent analysis. But with so many users whose platforms don't capture
core dumps by default, or who are unprepared to analyze them anyway, it's hard
to justify a forced database restart when we can fairly easily detect the
problems before we've reached the critical sections where PANIC would be
necessary. It is not currently known whether the reports of these messages
indicate well-hidden bugs in Postgres, or are a result of storage-level
malfeasance; the latter possibility suggests that we ought to try to be more
robust even if there is a bug here that's ultimately found.
Backpatch to 8.2. The code before that is sufficiently different that
it doesn't seem worth the trouble to back-port further.
