Since commit a4d03bbcdaf7739d7e9073ee76bb186f68ddc163, "make dist" has
built both gzip- and bzip2-compressed tarballs. However, this was
pretty useless, because our tarball build script didn't know about it
and proceeded to overwrite the bz2 file with new data. Back-patch the
change to all active branches, so that creation of the tar.bz2 file
can be removed from the build script.

It is possible for a NestLoop plan node to pass an OUTER Var into an
"inner indexscan" that is an Append construct (derived from an inheritance
tree or UNION ALL subquery). The OUTER tuple is then passed down at
runtime to the leaf indexscan node(s) where it will actually be used.
EXPLAIN has to likewise pass the information about the nestloop's outer
subplan down through the Append node, else it will fail to print the
outer-reference Vars (with complaints like "bogus varno: 65001").
However, there was a case missed in all this: we could also have gating
Result nodes that were inserted into the appendrel plan tree to deal with
pseudoconstant qual conditions. So EXPLAIN has to pass down the outer plan
node to a Result's subplan, too. Per example from Jon Nelson.
The problem is gone in 9.1 because we replaced the nestloop outer-tuple
kluge with a Param-based data transfer mechanism. Also, so far as I can
tell, the case can't happen before 8.4 because of restrictions on what
sorts of appendrel members could be pulled up into the parent query.
So this patch is only needed for 8.4 and 9.0.

When recursing after an optimization in pull_up_sublinks_qual_recurse, the
available_rels value passed down must include only the relations that are
in the righthand side of the new SEMI or ANTI join; it's incorrect to pull
up a sub-select that refers to other relations, as seen in the added test
case. Per report from BangarRaju Vadapalli.
While at it, rethink the idea of recursing below a NOT EXISTS. That is
essentially the same situation as pulling up ANY/EXISTS sub-selects that
are in the ON clause of an outer join, and it has the same disadvantage:
we'd force the two joins to be evaluated according to the syntactic nesting
order, because the lower join will most likely not be able to commute with
the ANTI join. That could result in having to form a rather large join
product, whereas the handling of a correlated subselect is not quite that
dumb. So until we can handle those cases better, #ifdef NOT_USED that
case. (I think it's okay to pull up in the EXISTS/ANY cases, because SEMI
joins aren't so inflexible about ordering.)
Back-patch to 8.4, same as for previous patch in this area. Fortunately
that patch hadn't made it into any shipped releases yet.

I mis-simplified the test where ANALYZE decided if it could get away

For some reason, when we (I) added table lock acquisition to pg_dump,
we didn't think about making it happen as soon as possible after the
start of the transaction. What with subsequent additions, there was
actually quite a lot going on before we got around to that; which sort
of defeats the purpose. Rearrange the order of calls in dumpSchema()
to close the risk window as much as we easily can. Back-patch to all
supported branches.

The previous code went into an infinite loop after overflow. In fact,
an overflow is not really an error; it just means that the current
value is the last one we need to return. So, just arrange to stop
immediately when overflow is detected.
Back-patch all the way.

This oversight could result in a tuplestore using much more than the
intended amount of memory. It would only happen in a code path that loaded
a tuplestore via tuplestore_putvalues(), and many of those won't emit huge
amounts of data; but cases such as holdable cursors and plpgsql's RETURN
NEXT command could have the problem. The fix ensures that the tuplestore
will switch to write-to-disk mode when it overruns work_mem.
The potential overrun was finite, because we would still count the space
used by the tuple pointer array, so the tuplestore code would eventually
flip into write-to-disk mode anyway. When storing wide tuples we would
go far past the expected work_mem usage before that happened; but this
may account for the lack of prior reports.
Back-patch to 8.4, where tuplestore_putvalues was introduced.

Apparently there is no buildfarm critter exercising this case after all,

ReadRecord's habit of using both direct references to tmpRecPtr and
references to *RecPtr (which is pointing at tmpRecPtr) triggers an
optimization bug in gcc 4.6.0, which apparently has forgotten about
aliasing rules. Avoid the compiler bug, and make the code more readable
to boot, by getting rid of the direct references. Improve the comments
while at it.
Back-patch to all supported versions, in case they get built with 4.6.0.

We were trying to make that strictly an internal implementation detail,
but it turns out that it's exposed anyway when dumping a view defined
like
CREATE VIEW test_view AS VALUES (1), (2), (3) ORDER BY 1;
This comes out as
CREATE VIEW ... ORDER BY "*VALUES*".column1;
which fails to parse when reloading the dump.
Hacking ruleutils.c to suppress the column qualification looks like it'd
be a risky business, so instead promote the RTE alias to full-fledged
usability.

My previous commit disallowed this operation, but did nothing about
cleaning up the damage if one had already been done. With the operation
disallowed, it's okay to just forcibly clear xmax in a sequence's tuple,
since any value seen there could not represent a live transaction's lock.
So, any sequence-specific operation will repair the problem automatically,
whether or not the user has already seen "could not access status of
transaction" failures.

We can't allow this because such an operation stores its transaction XID
into the sequence tuple's xmax. Because VACUUM doesn't process sequences
(and we don't want it to start doing so), such an xmax value won't get
frozen, meaning it will eventually refer to nonexistent pg_clog storage,
and even wrap around completely. Since the row lock is ignored by nextval
and setval, the usefulness of the operation is highly debatable anyway.
Per reports of trouble with pgpool 3.0, which had ill-advisedly started
using such commands as a form of locking.
In HEAD, also disallow SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE on toast tables. Although
this does work safely given the current implementation, there seems no
good reason to allow it. I refrained from changing that behavior in
back branches, however.

Apparently sane-looking penalty code might return small negative values,
for example because of roundoff error. This will confuse places like
gistchoose(). Prevent problems by clamping negative penalty values to
zero. (Just to be really sure, I also made it force NaNs to zero.)

Even though our existing code for handling credentials control messages has
been basically unchanged since 2001, it was fundamentally wrong: it did not
ensure proper alignment of the supplied buffer, and it was calculating
buffer sizes and message sizes incorrectly. This led to failures on
platforms where alignment padding is relevant, for instance FreeBSD on
64-bit platforms, as seen in a recent Debian bug report passed on by
Martin Pitt (http://bugs.debian.org//cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612888).
Rewrite to do the message-whacking using the macros specified in RFC 2292,
following a suggestion from Theo de Raadt in that thread. Tested by me
on Debian/kFreeBSD-amd64; since OpenBSD and NetBSD document the identical
CMSG API, it should work there too.

When we added the ability for vacuum to skip heap pages by consulting the
visibility map, we made it just not update the reltuples/relpages
statistics if it skipped any pages. But this could leave us with extremely
out-of-date stats for a table that contains any unchanging areas,
especially for TOAST tables which never get processed by ANALYZE. In
particular this could result in autovacuum making poor decisions about when
to process the table, as in recent report from Florian Helmberger. And in
general it's a bad idea to not update the stats at all. Instead, use the
previous values of reltuples/relpages as an estimate of the tuple density
in unvisited pages. This approach results in a "moving average" estimate
of reltuples, which should converge to the correct value over multiple
VACUUM and ANALYZE cycles even when individual measurements aren't very
good.
This new method for updating reltuples is used by both VACUUM and ANALYZE,
with the result that we no longer need the grotty interconnections that
caused ANALYZE to not update the stats depending on what had happened
in the parent VACUUM command.
Also, fix the logic for skipping all-visible pages during VACUUM so that it
looks ahead rather than behind to decide what to do, as per a suggestion
from Greg Stark. This eliminates useless scanning of all-visible pages at
the start of the relation or just after a not-all-visible page. In
particular, the first few pages of the relation will not be invariably
included in the scanned pages, which seems to help in not overweighting
them in the reltuples estimate.
Back-patch to 8.4, where the visibility map was introduced.

parse_xml_decl's header comment says you can pass NULL for any unwanted
output parameter, but it failed to honor this contract for the "standalone"
flag. The only currently-affected caller is xml_recv, so the net effect is
that sending a binary XML value containing a standalone parameter in its
xml declaration would crash the backend. Per bug #6044 from Christopher
Dillard.
In passing, remove useless initializations of parse_xml_decl's output
parameters in xml_parse.

We had some hacks in ruleutils.c to cope with various odd transformations
that the optimizer could do on a CASE foo WHEN "CaseTestExpr = RHS" clause.
However, the fundamental impossibility of covering all cases was exposed
by Heikki, who pointed out that the "=" operator could get replaced by an
inlined SQL function, which could contain nearly anything at all. So give
up on the hacks and just print the expression as-is if we fail to recognize
it as "CaseTestExpr = RHS". (We must cover that case so that decompiled
rules print correctly; but we are not under any obligation to make EXPLAIN
output be 100% valid SQL in all cases, and already could not do so in some
other cases.) This approach requires that we have some printable
representation of the CaseTestExpr node type; I used "CASE_TEST_EXPR".
Back-patch to all supported branches, since the problem case fails in all.

convert_tuples_by_position was rejecting attempts to coerce a record field
with -1 typmod to the same type with a non-default typmod. This is in fact
the "correct" thing to do (since we're just going to do a type relabeling,
not invoke any length-conversion cast function); but it results in
rejecting valid cases like bug #6020, because the source record's tupdesc
is built from Params that don't have typmod assigned. Since that's a
regression from previous versions, which accepted this code, we have to do
something about it. In HEAD, I've fixed the problem properly by causing
the Params to receive the correct typmods; but the potential for incidental
behavioral changes seems high enough to make it unattractive to make the
same change in released branches. (And it couldn't be fixed that way in
8.4 anyway...) Hence this patch just modifies convert_tuples_by_position
to not complain if either the input or the output tupdesc has typmod -1.
This is still a shade tighter checking than we did before 9.0, since before
that plpgsql failed to consider typmods at all when checking record
compatibility. (convert_tuples_by_position is currently used only by
plpgsql, so we're not affecting other behavior.)
Back-patch to 8.4, since we recently back-ported convert_tuples_by_position
into that branch.

The planner can sometimes compute very large values for numGroups, and in
cases where we have no alternative to building a hashtable, such a value
will get fed directly to BuildTupleHashTable as its nbuckets parameter.
There were two ways in which that could go bad. First, BuildTupleHashTable
declared the parameter as "int" but most callers were passing "long"s,
so on 64-bit machines undetected overflow could occur leading to a bogus
negative value. The obvious fix for that is to change the parameter to
"long", which is what I've done in HEAD. In the back branches that seems a
bit risky, though, since third-party code might be calling this function.
So for them, just put in a kluge to treat negative inputs as INT_MAX.
Second, hash_create can go nuts with extremely large requested table sizes
(notably, my_log2 becomes an infinite loop for inputs larger than
LONG_MAX/2). What seems most appropriate to avoid that is to bound the
initial table size request to work_mem.
This fixes bug #6035 reported by Daniel Schreiber. Although the reported
case only occurs back to 8.4 since it involves WITH RECURSIVE, I think
it's a good idea to install the defenses in all supported branches.

The code to assemble ldap_get_values_len's output into a single string
wrote the terminating null one byte past where it should. Fix that,
and make some other cosmetic adjustments to make the code a trifle more
readable and more in line with usual Postgres coding style.
Also, free the "result" string when done with it, to avoid a permanent
memory leak.

After finding an EXISTS or ANY sub-select that can be converted to a
semi-join or anti-join, we should recurse into the body of the sub-select.
This allows cases such as EXISTS-within-EXISTS to be optimized properly.
The original coding would leave the lower sub-select as a SubLink, which
is no better and often worse than what we can do with a join. Per example
from Wayne Conrad.
Back-patch to 8.4. There is a related issue in older versions' handling
of pull_up_IN_clauses, but they're lame enough anyway about the whole area
that it seems not worth the extra work to try to fix.

We must lock out autovacuuming of the old toast table before computing the
OldestXmin horizon we will use. Otherwise, autovacuum could start on the
toast table later, compute a later OldestXmin horizon, and remove as DEAD
toast tuples that we still need (because we think their parent tuples are
only RECENTLY_DEAD). Per further thought about bug #5998.

VACUUM was willing to remove a committed-dead tuple immediately if it was
deleted by the same transaction that inserted it. The idea is that such a
tuple could never have been visible to any other transaction, so we don't
need to keep it around to satisfy MVCC snapshots. However, there was
already an exception for tuples that are part of an update chain, and this
exception created a problem: we might remove TOAST tuples (which are never
part of an update chain) while their parent tuple stayed around (if it was
part of an update chain). This didn't pose a problem for most things,
since the parent tuple is indeed dead: no snapshot will ever consider it
visible. But MVCC-safe CLUSTER had a problem, since it will try to copy
RECENTLY_DEAD tuples to the new table. It then has to copy their TOAST
data too, and would fail if VACUUM had already removed the toast tuples.
Easiest fix is to get rid of the special case for xmin == xmax. This may
delay reclaiming dead space for a little bit in some cases, but it's by far
the most reliable way to fix the issue.
Per bug #5998 from Mark Reid. Back-patch to 8.3, which is the oldest
version with MVCC-safe CLUSTER.

Convert it to use successive shifts right instead of increasing a divisor.
This is probably a tad more efficient than the original coding, and it's
nicer-looking than the previous patch because we don't need a special case
to avoid overflow in the last branch. But the real reason to do it is to
avoid a Solaris compiler bug, as per results from buildfarm member moa.

Per recent discussion, it's important for all computed datums (not only the
results of input functions) to not contain any ill-defined (uninitialized)
bits. Failing to ensure that can result in equal() reporting that
semantically indistinguishable Consts are not equal, which in turn leads to
bizarre and undesirable planner behavior, such as in a recent example from
David Johnston. We might eventually try to fix this in a general manner by
allowing datatypes to define identity-testing functions, but for now the
path of least resistance is to expect datatypes to force all unused bits
into consistent states.
Per some testing by Noah Misch, array and path functions seem to be the
only ones presenting risks at the moment, so I looked through all the
functions in adt/array*.c and geo_ops.c and fixed them as necessary. In
the array functions, the easiest/safest fix is to allocate result arrays
with palloc0 instead of palloc. Possibly in future someone will want to
look into whether we can just zero the padding bytes, but that looks too
complex for a back-patchable fix. In the path functions, we already had a
precedent in path_in for just zeroing the one known pad field, so duplicate
that code as needed.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

Most commenters agreed that this is more friendly than silently failing
to match the line during actual connection attempts. Also, this will
prevent corner cases that might arise when trying to handle such a line
when the SSL code isn't turned on. An example is that specifying
clientcert=1 in such a line would formerly result in a completely
misleading complaint that root.crt wasn't present, as seen in a recent
report from Marc-Andre Laverdiere. While we could have instead fixed
that specific behavior, it seems likely that we'd have a continuing stream
of such bizarre behaviors if we keep on allowing hostssl lines when SSL is
disabled.
Back-patch to 8.4, where clientcert was introduced. Earlier versions don't
have this specific issue, and the code is enough different to make this
patch not applicable without more work than it seems worth.

The expression that tried to round the value to the nearest TB could
overflow, leading to bogus output as reported in bug #5993 from Nicola
Cossu. This isn't likely to ever happen in the intended usage of the
function (if it could, we'd be needing to use a wider datatype instead);
but it's not hard to give the expected output, so let's do so.

If we find a DELETE_IN_PROGRESS HOT-updated tuple, it is impossible to know
whether to index it or not except by waiting to see if the deleting
transaction commits. If it doesn't, the tuple might again be LIVE, meaning
we have to index it. So wait and recheck in that case.
Also, we must not rely on ii_BrokenHotChain to decide that it's possible to
omit tuples from the index. That could result in omitting tuples that we
need, particularly in view of yesterday's fixes to not necessarily set
indcheckxmin (but it's broken even without that, as per my analysis today).
Since this is just an extremely marginal performance optimization, dropping
the test shouldn't hurt.
These cases are only expected to happen in system catalogs (they're
possible there due to early release of RowExclusiveLock in most
catalog-update code paths). Since reindexing of a system catalog isn't a
particularly performance-critical operation anyway, there's no real need to
be concerned about possible performance degradation from these changes.
The worst aspects of this bug were introduced in 9.0 --- 8.x will always
wait out a DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuple. But I think dropping index entries
on the strength of ii_BrokenHotChain is dangerous even without that, so
back-patch removal of that optimization to 8.3 and 8.4.

Per comment from Greg Stark, it's less clear that HOT chains don't conflict
with the index than it would be for a valid index. So, let's preserve the
former behavior that indcheckxmin does get set when there are
potentially-broken HOT chains in this case. This change does not cause any
pg_index update that wouldn't have happened anyway, so we're not
re-introducing the previous bug with pg_index updates, and surely the case
is not significant from a performance standpoint; so let's be as
conservative as possible.

"People's Republic of China" locale on Windows was causing initdb to fail.
This fixes bug #5818 reported by yulei. On master, this makes the mapping
of "People's Republic of China" to just "China" obsolete. In 9.0 and 8.4,
just fix the escaping. Earlier versions didn't have locale names in bki
file.

There can never be a need to push the indcheckxmin horizon forward, since
any HOT chains that are actually broken with respect to the index must
pre-date its original creation. So we can just avoid changing pg_index
altogether during a REINDEX operation.
This offers a cleaner solution than my previous patch for the problem
found a few days ago that we mustn't try to update pg_index while we are
reindexing it. System catalog indexes will always be created with
indcheckxmin = false during initdb, and with this modified code we should
never try to change their pg_index entries. This avoids special-casing
system catalogs as the former patch did, and should provide a performance
benefit for many cases where REINDEX formerly caused an index to be
considered unusable for a short time.
Back-patch to 8.3 to cover all versions containing HOT. Note that this
patch changes the API for index_build(), but I believe it is unlikely that
any add-on code is calling that directly.

The places that attempt to change pg_index.indcheckxmin during a reindexing
operation cannot be executed safely if pg_index itself is the subject of
the operation. This is the explanation for a couple of recent reports of
VACUUM FULL failing with
ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_index_indexrelid_index"
DETAIL: Key (indexrelid)=(2678) already exists.
However, there isn't any real need to update indcheckxmin in such a
situation, if we assume that pg_index can never contain a truly broken HOT
chain. This assumption holds if new indexes are never created on it during
concurrent operations, which is something we don't consider safe for any
system catalog, not just pg_index. Accordingly, modify the code to not
manipulate indcheckxmin when reindexing any system catalog.
Back-patch to 8.3, where HOT was introduced. The known failure scenarios
involve 9.0-style VACUUM FULL, so there might not be any real risk before
9.0, but let's not assume that.

When we are doing GEQO join planning, the current memory context is a
short-lived context that will be reset at the end of geqo_eval(). However,
the RelOptInfos for base relations are set up before that and then re-used
across many GEQO cycles. Hence, any code that modifies a baserel during
join planning has to be careful not to put pointers to the short-lived
context into the baserel struct. mark_dummy_rel got this wrong, leading to
easy-to-reproduce-once-you-know-how crashes in 8.4, as reported off-list by
Leo Carson of SDSC. Some improvements made in 9.0 make it difficult to
demonstrate the crash in 9.0 or HEAD; but there's no doubt that there's
still a risk factor here, so patch all branches that have the function.
(Note: 8.3 has a similar function, but it's only applied to joinrels and
thus is not a hazard.)
