The comparison with the target rows on the subscriber side was done with datumIsEqual(), which can have false negatives. For instance, it didn't work reliably for text columns. So use the equality operator provided by the type cache instead. Also add more user documentation about replica identity requirements. Reported-by: Tatsuo Ishii <ishii@sraoss.co.jp>

Marco Atzeri reported that initdb would fail if "locale -a" reported the same locale name more than once. All previous versions of Postgres implicitly de-duplicated the results of "locale -a", but the rewrite to move the collation import logic into C had lost that property. It had also lost the property that locale names matching built-in collation names were silently ignored. The simplest way to fix this is to make initdb run the function in if-not-exists mode, which means that there's no real use-case for non if-not-exists mode; we might as well just drop the boolean argument and simplify the function's definition to be "add any collations not already known". This change also gets rid of some odd corner cases caused by the fact that aliases were added in if-not-exists mode even if the function argument said otherwise. While at it, adjust the behavior so that pg_import_system_collations() doesn't spew "collation foo already exists, skipping" messages during a re-run; that's completely unhelpful, especially since there are often hundreds of them. And make it return a count of the number of collations it did add, which seems like it might be helpful. Also, re-integrate the previous coding's property that it would make a deterministic selection of which alias to use if there were conflicting possibilities. This would only come into play if "locale -a" reports multiple equivalent locale names, say "de_DE.utf8" and "de_DE.UTF-8", but that hardly seems out of the question. In passing, fix incorrect behavior in pg_import_system_collations()'s ICU code path: it neglected CommandCounterIncrement, which would result in failures if ICU returns duplicate names, and it would try to create comments even if a new collation hadn't been created. Also, reorder operations in initdb so that the 'ucs_basic' collation is created before calling pg_import_system_collations() not after. This prevents a failure if "locale -a" were to report a locale named that. There's no reason to think that that ever happens in the wild, but the old coding would have survived it, so let's be equally robust.

After sitting idle and fully replayed for a while and then encountering a new burst of WAL activity, we interpolate between an ancient sample and the not-yet-reached one for the new traffic. That produced a corner case report of lag after receiving first new reply from standby, which might sometimes be a large spike. Correct this by resetting last_read time and handle that new case.

Callers of icu_to_uchar() neglected to pfree the result string when done with it. This results in catastrophic memory leaks in varstr_cmp(), because of our prevailing assumption that btree comparison functions don't leak memory. For safety, make all the call sites clean up leaks, though I suspect that we could get away without it in formatting.c. I audited callers of icu_from_uchar() as well, but found no places that seemed to have a comparable issue. Add function API specifications for icu_to_uchar() and icu_from_uchar(); the lack of any thought-through specification is perhaps not unrelated to the existence of this bug in the first place. Fix icu_to_uchar() to guarantee a nul-terminated result; although no existing caller appears to care, the fact that it would have been nul-terminated except in extreme corner cases seems ideally designed to bite someone on the rear someday. Fix ucnv_fromUChars() destCapacity argument --- in the worst case, that could perhaps have led to a non-nul-terminated result, too. Fix icu_from_uchar() to have a more reasonable definition of the function result --- no callers are actually paying attention, so this isn't a live bug, but it's certainly sloppily designed. Const-ify icu_from_uchar()'s input string for consistency. That is not the end of what needs to be done to these functions, but it's as much as I have the patience for right now.

It's essential that initdb.c's setup_depend() scan each system catalog that could contain objects that need to have "p" (pin) entries in pg_depend or pg_shdepend. Forgetting to add that, either when a catalog is first invented or when it first acquires DATA() entries, is an obvious bug hazard. We can detect such omissions at reasonable cost by probing every OID-containing system catalog to see whether the lowest-numbered OID in it is pinned. If so, the catalog must have been properly accounted for in setup_depend(). If the lowest OID is above FirstNormalObjectId then the catalog must have been empty at the end of initdb, so it doesn't matter. There are a small number of catalogs whose first entry is made later in initdb than setup_depend(), resulting in nonempty expected output of the test, but these can be manually inspected to see that they are OK. Any future mistake of this ilk will manifest as a new entry in the test's output. Since pg_conversion is already in the test's output, add it to the set of catalogs scanned by setup_depend(). That has no effect today (hence, no catversion bump here) but it will protect us if we ever do add pin-worthy conversions. This test is very much like the catalog sanity checks embodied in opr_sanity.sql and type_sanity.sql, but testing pg_depend doesn't seem to fit naturally into either of those scripts' charters. Hence, invent a new test script misc_sanity.sql, which can be a home for this as well as tests on any other catalogs we might want in future.

There was a logic error in a formula, reported by Atsushi Torokoshi. Ashutosh Bapat furthermore recommended to change notation for a variable that was re-using a letter from a previous formula, though his proposed patch contained a small error in attributing what the new letter is for. Also, instead of his proposed d' I ended up using e, to avoid confusing the reader with quotes which are used differently in the explaining prose. Bugs appeared in commit 2686ee1b.

The autovacuum launcher doesn't actually do anything with its DSA other than creating it and attaching to it, but it's been observed that after longjmp'ing to the standard error handling block (for example after getting SIGINT) the autovacuum enters an infinite loop reporting that it cannot attach to its DSA anymore (which is correct, because it's already attached to it.) Fix by only attempting to attach if not already attached. I introduced this bug together with BRIN autosummarization in 7526e102. Reported-by: Yugo Nagata. Author: Thomas Munro.

When promoting a standby just after a XLOG_SWITCH record was replayed, and next segment(s) are already are locally available (via walsender, restore_command + trigger/recovery target), that segment could accidentally be recycled onto the past of the new timeline. Later checkpointer would create a .ready file for it, assuming there was an error during creation, and it would get archived. That causes trouble if another standby is later brought up from a basebackup from before the timeline creation, because it would try to read the segment, because XLogFileReadAnyTLI just tries all possible timelines, which doesn't have valid contents. Thus replay would fail. The problem, if already occurred, can be fixed by removing the segment and/or having restore_command filter it out. The reason for the creation of such "phantom" segments was, that after an XLOG_SWITCH record the EndOfLog variable points to the beginning of the next segment, and RemoveXlogFile() used XLByteToPrevSeg(). Normally RemoveXlogFile() doing so is harmless, because the last segment will still exist preventing InstallXLogFileSegment() from causing harm, but just after promotion there's no previous segment on the new timeline. Fix that by using XLByteToSeg() instead of XLByteToPrevSeg().

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

Update version-checking code and list of switches. Delete obsolete quasi-support for using GNU indent. Remove a lot of no-longer-needed workarounds for bugs of the old version, and improve comments for the hacks that remain. Update run_build() subroutine to fetch the pg_bsd_indent code from the newly established git repo for it. In passing, fix pgindent to not overwrite files that require no changes; this makes it a bit more friendly to run on a built tree. Adjust relevant documentation. Remove indent.bsd.patch; it's not relevant anymore (and was obsolete long ago anyway). Likewise remove pgcppindent, since we're no longer in the business of shipping C++ code. Piotr Stefaniak is responsible for most of the algorithmic changes to the pgindent script; I did the rest.

Currently, there are no built-in functions that are SECURITY DEFINER. But we just found an instance where one was mistakenly marked that way, so it seems prudent to add a test about it. If we ever grow some functions that are intentionally SECURITY DEFINER, we can alter the expected output of this test, or adjust the query to filter out functions for which it's okay. Per suggestion from Robert Haas. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CA+TgmoYXg7McY33+jbWmG=rS-HNUur0S6W8Q8kVNFf7epFimVA@mail.gmail.com

When commit 0f33a719 removed the instructions to start/stop the new cluster before running rsync, it was now possible for pg_resetwal/pg_resetxlog to leave the final WAL record at wal_level=minimum, preventing upgraded standby servers from reconnecting. This patch fixes that by having pg_upgrade unconditionally start/stop the new cluster after pg_resetwal/pg_resetxlog has run. Backpatch through 9.2 since, though the instructions were added in PG 9.5, they worked all the way back to 9.2.

load_libraries(), which processes the various xxx_preload_libraries GUCs, was parsing them using SplitIdentifierString() which isn't really appropriate for values that could be path names: it downcases unquoted text, and it doesn't allow embedded whitespace unless quoted. Use SplitDirectoriesString() instead. That also allows us to simplify load_libraries() a bit, since canonicalize_path() is now done for it. While this definitely seems like a bug fix, it has the potential to break configuration settings that accidentally worked before because of the downcasing behavior. Also, there's an easy workaround for the bug, namely to double-quote troublesome text. Hence, no back-patch.

Viewing a table with \d in psql also shows the publications at table is in. If a publication is concurrently dropped, this shows an error, because the view pg_publication_tables internally uses pg_get_publication_tables(), which uses a catalog snapshot. This can be particularly annoying if a for-all-tables publication is concurrently dropped. To avoid that, write the query in psql differently. Expose the function pg_relation_is_publishable() to SQL and write the query using that. That still has a risk of being affected by concurrent catalog changes, but in this case it would be a table drop that causes problems, and then the psql \d command wouldn't be interesting anymore anyway.

David Rowley found that the "use the smallest per-column selectivity" heuristic applied in some cases by get_foreign_key_join_selectivity() was badly off if the FK columns are independent, producing estimates much worse than we got before that code was added in 9.6. One case where that heuristic was used was for LEFT and FULL outer joins with the referenced rel on the outside of the join. But we should not really need to special-case those here. eqjoinsel() never has had such a special case; the correction is applied by calc_joinrel_size_estimate() instead. Let's just estimate such cases like inner joins and rely on that later adjustment. (I think there was something of a thinko here, in that the comments seem to be thinking about the selectivity as defined for semi/anti joins; but that shouldn't apply to left/full joins.) Add a regression test exercising such a case to show that this is sane in at least some cases. The other case where we used that heuristic was for SEMI/ANTI outer joins, either if the referenced rel was on the outside, or if it was on the inside but was part of a join within the RHS. In either case, the FK doesn't give us a lot of traction towards estimating the selectivity. To ensure that we don't have regressions from what happened before 9.6, let's punt by ignoring the FK in such cases and applying the traditional selectivity calculation. (We might be able to improve on that later, but for now I just want to be sure it's not worse than 9.5.) Report and patch by David Rowley, simplified a bit by me.
