The previous naming broke the query that libpq's lo_initialize() uses
to collect the OIDs of the server-side functions it requires, because
that query effectively assumes that there is only one function named
lo_create in the pg_catalog schema (and likewise only one lo_open, etc).

While we should certainly make libpq more robust about this, the naive
query will remain in use in the field for the foreseeable future, so it
seems the only workable choice is to use a different name for the new
function.  lo_from_bytea() won a small straw poll.

Back-patch into 9.4 where the new function was introduced.

If a sub-select-in-FROM gets flattened into the upper query, then we
naturally get rid of any output columns that are defined in the sub-select
text but not actually used in the upper query.  However, this doesn't
happen when it's not possible to flatten the subquery, for example because
it contains GROUP BY, LIMIT, etc.  Allowing the subquery to compute useless
output columns is often fairly harmless, but sometimes it has significant
performance cost: the unused output might be an expensive expression,
or it might be a Var from a relation that we could remove entirely (via
the join-removal logic) if only we realized that we didn't really need
that Var.  Situations like this are common when expanding views, so it
seems worth taking the trouble to detect and remove unused outputs.

Because the upper query's Var numbering for subquery references depends on
positions in the subquery targetlist, we don't want to renumber the items
we leave behind.  Instead, we can implement "removal" by replacing the
unwanted expressions with simple NULL constants.  This wastes a few cycles
at runtime, but not enough to justify more work in the planner.

Change the order of checks in similar functions to be the same; remove
a parameter that's not needed anymore; rename a memory context and
expand a couple of comments.

Per review comments from Amit Kapila

This preserves user-specified LDFLAGS; we already kept user-specified
CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS.  Given the shortage of complaints and the fact that
any problem caused is likely to appear at build time, no back-patch.

Dag-Erling Smørgrav and Noah Misch

The MSVC build process already did so; this fixes the principal build
process to match.  Both processes already did likewise for src/common.
This lets server builds of src/port reference postgres.exe data symbols.

When we grabbed this file off the Snowball project's website, we mistakenly
supposed that it was in LATIN1 encoding, but evidently it was actually in
LATIN2.  This resulted in ő (o-double-acute, U+0151, which is code 0xF5 in
LATIN2) being misconverted into õ (o-tilde, U+00F5), as complained of in
bug #10589 from Zoltán Sörös.  We'd have messed up u-double-acute too,
but there aren't any of those in the file.  Other characters used in the
file have the same codes in LATIN1 and LATIN2, which no doubt helped hide
the problem for so long.

The error is not only ours: the Snowball project also was confused about
which encoding is required for Hungarian.  But dealing with that will
require source-code changes that I'm not at all sure we'll wish to
back-patch.  Fixing the stopword file seems reasonably safe to back-patch
however.

Let the hacking begin ...

Although this bug is already fixed in post-9.2 branches, the case
triggering it is quite different from what was under consideration
at the time.  It seems worth memorializing this example in HEAD
just to make sure it doesn't get broken again in future.

Extracted from commit 187ae17300776f48b2bd9d0737923b1bf70f606e.

Previously, the code used a node label of zero both for strings that
contain no bytes beyond the inner tuple's prefix, and for cases where an
"allTheSame" inner tuple has to be split to allow a string with a different
next byte to be inserted into it.  Failing to distinguish these cases meant
that if a string ending with the current prefix needed to be inserted into
an allTheSame tuple, we got into an infinite loop, because after splitting
the tuple we'd descend into the child allTheSame tuple and then find we
need to split again.

To fix, instead use -1 and -2 as the node labels for these two cases.
This requires widening the node label type from "char" to int2, but
fortunately SPGiST stores all pass-by-value node label types in their
Datum representation, which means that this change is transparently upward
compatible so far as the on-disk representation goes.  We continue to
recognize zero as a dummy node label for reading purposes, but will not
attempt to push new index entries down into such a label, so that the loop
won't occur even when dealing with an existing index.

Per report from Teodor Sigaev.  Back-patch to 9.2 where the faulty
code was introduced.

In a50d9762 I already changed this, but got it wrong for the case
where the number of members is larger than the number of entries that
fit in the last page of the last segment.

As reported by Serge Negodyuck in a followup to bug #8673.

A ReorderBufferTransaction's end_lsn, the sentPtr advocated by
walsender keepalive messages, and the end location remembered by the
decoding get_*changes* SQL functions all use the location of the last
read record + 1. I.e. the LSN points to the beginning of the next
record. That cannot realistically be changed without changing the
replication protocol because that's how keepalive messages have worked
since 9.0.
The bug is that the logic inside the snapshot builder, which decides
whether a transaction's contents should be decoded, assumed the start
location would point towards the last byte of the last record. The
reason this didn't actually cause visible problems is that currently
that decision is only made for commit records. Since interesting
transactions always have at least one additional record - containing
actual data - we'd never skip a transaction.
But if there ever were transactions, or other events, with just one
record containing important information, we'd skip them after stopping
and restarting logical decoding.

It's critical that the backend's idea of LOBLKSIZE match the way data has
actually been divided up in pg_largeobject.  While we don't provide any
direct way to adjust that value, doing so is a one-line source code change
and various people have expressed interest recently in changing it.  So,
just as with TOAST_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE, it seems prudent to record the value in
pg_control and cross-check that the backend's compiled-in setting matches
the on-disk data.

Also tweak the code in inv_api.c so that fetches from pg_largeobject
explicitly verify that the length of the data field is not more than
LOBLKSIZE.  Formerly we just had Asserts() for that, which is no protection
at all in production builds.  In some of the call sites an overlength data
value would translate directly to a security-relevant stack clobber, so it
seems worth one extra runtime comparison to be sure.

In the back branches, we can't change the contents of pg_control; but we
can still make the extra checks in inv_api.c, which will offer some amount
of protection against running with the wrong value of LOBLKSIZE.

Previously there's been a mix between 'slotname' and 'slot_name'. It's
not nice to be unneccessarily inconsistent in a new feature. As a post
beta1 initdb now is required in the wake of eeca4cd3, fix the
inconsistencies.
Most the changes won't affect usage of replication slots because the
majority of changes is around function parameter names. The prominent
exception to that is that the recovery.conf parameter
'primary_slotname' is now named 'primary_slot_name'.

The original location in create_function_3.sql didn't invite the close
structinity warranted for adding new leakproof functions. Add comments
to the test explaining that functions should only be added after
careful consideration and understanding what a leakproof function is.

Per complaint from Tom Lane after 5eebb8d9.

The way the code was written, the padding was copied from uninitialized
memory areas.. Because the structs are local variables in the code where
the WAL records are constructed, making them larger and zeroing the padding
bytes would not make the code very pretty, so rather than fixing this
directly by zeroing out the padding bytes, it seems more clear to not try to
align the tuples in the WAL records. The redo functions are taught to copy
the tuple header to a local variable to avoid unaligned access.

Stable-branches have the same problem, but we can't change the WAL format
there, so fix in master only. Reading a few random extra bytes at the stack
is harmless in practice, so it's not worth crafting a different
back-patchable fix.

Per reports from Kevin Grittner and Andres Freund, using clang static
analyzer and Valgrind, respectively.

Buildfarm says we get different plans on 32-bit and 64-bit platforms,
probably because of MAXALIGN-related differences in memory-consumption
calculations.  Add some dummy WHERE clauses so that the planner estimates
different sizes for the three generate_series() relations; that should
stabilize the choice of join order.

This is needed to allow ORDER BY, DISTINCT, etc to work as expected for
pg_lsn values.

We had previously decided to put this off for 9.5, but in view of commit
eeca4cd3 there's no reason to avoid a
catversion bump for 9.4beta2, and this does make a pretty significant
usability difference for pg_lsn.

Michael Paquier, with fixes from Andres Freund and Tom Lane

This should have been done in 6bc8ef0b
and/or 50e54709, but better late than
never.  If we don't change this then we risk 9.3 pg_controldata or
pg_resetxlog being inappropriately used against a 9.4 pg_control file,
or vice versa.

HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() didn't properly discern between
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS and INSERT_IN_PROGRESS for rows that have been
inserted in the current transaction and deleted in a aborted
subtransaction of the current backend. At the very least that caused
problems for CLUSTER and CREATE INDEX in transactions that had
aborting subtransactions producing rows, leading to warnings like:
WARNING:  concurrent delete in progress within table "..."
possibly in an endless, uninterruptible, loop.

Instead of treating *InProgress xmins the same as *IsCurrent ones,
treat them as being distinct like the other visibility routines. As
implemented this separatation can cause a behaviour change for rows
that have been inserted and deleted in another, still running,
transaction. HTSV will now return INSERT_IN_PROGRESS instead of
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS for those. That's both, more in line with the other
visibility routines and arguably more correct. The latter because a
INSERT_IN_PROGRESS will make callers look at/wait for xmin, instead of
xmax.
The only current caller where that's possibly worse than the old
behaviour is heap_prune_chain() which now won't mark the page as
prunable if a row has concurrently been inserted and deleted. That's
harmless enough.

As a cautionary measure also insert a interrupt check before the gotos
in IndexBuildHeapScan() that lead to the uninterruptible loop. There
are other possible causes, like a row that several sessions try to
update and all fail, for repeated loops and the cost of doing so in
the retry case is low.

As this bug goes back all the way to the introduction of
subtransactions in 573a71a5 backpatch to all supported releases.

Reported-By: Sandro Santilli

Back-patch to 9.3 where pg_stat directory was introduced.

187492b6 changed pgstat.c so that
the stats files were saved into $PGDATA/pg_stat directory when the server
was shutdowned. But it accidentally forgot to change the location of
pg_stat_statements permanent stats file. This commit fixes pg_stat_statements
so that its stats file is also saved into $PGDATA/pg_stat at shutdown.

Since this fix changes the file layout, we don't back-patch it to 9.3
where this oversight was introduced.

Bison >=3.0 issues warnings about

    %name-prefix="base_yy"

instead of the now preferred

    %name-prefix "base_yy"

but the latter doesn't work with Bison 2.3 or less.  So for now we
silence the deprecation warnings.

Per gripe from Peter Eisentraut and Tom Lane.

The output is slightly different, but still ISO 8601 compliant: to_char
doesn't output the minutes when time zone offset is an integer number of
hours, while EncodeDateTime outputs ":00".

The code is slightly adapted from code in xml.c

Previously, any backslash in text being escaped for JSON was doubled so
that the result was still valid JSON. However, this led to some perverse
results in the case of Unicode sequences, These are now detected and the
initial backslash is no longer escaped. All other backslashes are
still escaped. No validity check is performed, all that is looked for is
\uXXXX where X is a hexidecimal digit.

This is a change from the 9.2 and 9.3 behaviour as noted in the Release
notes.

Per complaint from Teodor Sigaev.

Many JSON processors require timestamp strings in ISO 8601 format in
order to convert the strings. When converting a timestamp, with or
without timezone, to a JSON datum we therefore now use such a format
rather than the type's default text output, in functions such as
to_json().

This is a change in behaviour from 9.2 and 9.3, as noted in the release
notes.

This test previously used a data value containing U+0080, and would
therefore fail if the database encoding didn't have an equivalent to
that; which only about half of our supported server encodings do.
We could fall back to using some plain-ASCII character, but that seems
like it's losing most of the point of the test.  Instead switch to using
U+00A0 (no-break space), which translates into all our supported encodings
except the four in the EUC_xx family.

Per buildfarm testing.  Back-patch to 9.1, which is as far back as this
test is expected to succeed everywhere.  (9.0 has the test, but without
back-patching some 9.1 code changes we could not expect to get consistent
results across platforms anyway.)

Because RecoveryConflictInterrupt() didn't set the process latch
anything using the latter to wait for events didn't get notified about
recovery conflicts. Most latch users are never the target of recovery
conflicts, which explains the lack of reports about this until
now.
Since 9.3 two possible affected users exist though: The sql callable
pg_sleep() now uses latches to wait and background workers are
expected to use latches in their main loop. Both would currently wait
until the end of WaitLatch's timeout.

Fix by adding a SetLatch() to RecoveryConflictInterrupt(). It'd also
be possible to fix the issue by having each latch user set
set_latch_on_sigusr1. That seems failure prone and though, as most of
these callsites won't often receive recovery conflicts and thus will
likely only be tested against normal query cancels et al. It'd also be
unnecessarily verbose.

Backpatch to 9.1 where latches were introduced. Arguably 9.3 would be
sufficient, because that's where pg_sleep() was converted to waiting
on the latch and background workers got introduced; but there could be
user level code making use of the latch pre 9.3.

Use the unaligned/no rowcount output mode in a regression tests that
shows all built-in leakproof functions. Currently a new leakproof
function will often change the alignment of all existing functions,
making it hard to see the actual difference and creating unnecessary
patch conflicts.

Noticed while looking over a patch introducing new leakproof functions.

from_jsonb -> from_json, for consistency

Patch by rudolf (private report)

Instead of iterating over jsonb structures, use the inbuilt functions
findJsonbValueFromContainerLen() and getIthJsonbValueFromContainer() to
extract values directly. These functions use algorithms that are O(n log
n) and O(1) respectively, whereas iterating is O(n), so we should see
considerable speedup here.

Teodor Sigaev.

Document the CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT's output_plugin parameter; that
START_REPLICATION ... LOGICAL takes parameters; that START_REPLICATION
... LOGICAL uses the same messages as ... PHYSICAL; and be more
consistent with the usage of <literal/>.

Michael Paquier, with some additional changes by me.

As of Xcode 5.0, Apple isn't including the Python framework as part of the
SDK-level files, which means that linking to it might fail depending on
whether Xcode thinks you've selected a specific SDK version.  According to
their Tech Note 2328, they've basically deprecated the framework method of
linking to libpython and are telling people to link to the shared library
normally.  (I'm pretty sure this is in direct contradiction to the advice
they were giving a few years ago, but whatever.)  Testing says that this
approach works fine at least as far back as OS X 10.4.11, so let's just
rip out the framework special case entirely.  We do still need a special
case to decide that OS X provides a shared library at all, unfortunately
(I wonder why the distutils check doesn't work ...).  But this is still
less of a special case than before, so it's fine.

Back-patch to all supported branches, since we'll doubtless be hearing
about this more as more people update to recent Xcode.

The original coding in contrib/uuid-ossp created and destroyed a uuid_t
object (or, in some cases, even two of them) each time it was called.
This is not the intended usage: you're supposed to keep the uuid_t object
around so that the library can cache its state across uses.  (Other UUID
libraries seem to keep equivalent state behind-the-scenes in static
variables, but OSSP chose differently.)  Aside from being quite inefficient,
creating a new uuid_t loses knowledge of the previously generated UUID,
which in theory could result in duplicate V1-style UUIDs being created
on sufficiently fast machines.

On at least some platforms, creating a new uuid_t also draws some entropy
from /dev/urandom, leaving less for the rest of the system.  This seems
sufficiently unpleasant to justify back-patching this change.

The previous version of these tests expected uuid_generate_v1() to always
emit MAC addresses with the local-admin and multicast address bits zero.
However, several of the buildfarm critters are reporting values with the
local-admin bit set.  (Perhaps they're running inside VMs or jails.)
And a couple are reporting values with the multicast bit set, probably
meaning that the UUID library couldn't read the system MAC address.

Also, it emerges that if OSSP UUID can't read the system MAC address, it
falls back to V1MC behavior wherein the whole node field gets randomized
each time, breaking the test that expected the node field to remain stable
in V1 output.  (It looks like e2fs doesn't behave that way, though.)

It's not entirely clear why we can't get a system MAC address, since the
buildfarm scripts would not work without internet access.  Nonetheless,
the regression tests had better cope with the case, so adjust the tests
to expect these behaviors.
