The data types that contrib/pageinspect's bt_metap() function were declared to return as OUT arguments were wrong in some cases. For example, the oldest_xact column (a TransactionId/xid field) was declared integer/int4 within the pageinspect extension's sql file. This led to errors when an oldest_xact value that exceeded 2^31-1 was encountered. Some of the other columns were defined incorrectly ever since pageinspect was first introduced, though they were far less likely to produce problems in practice. Fix these issues by changing the declaration of bt_metap() to consistently use data types that can reliably represent all possible values. This fixes things on HEAD only. No backpatch, since it doesn't seem like there is a safe way to fix the issue without including a new version of the pageinspect extension (HEAD/Postgres 13 already introduced a new version of the extension). Besides, the oldest_xact issue has been around since the release of Postgres 11, and we haven't heard any complaints about it before now. Also, throw an error when we detect a bt_metap() declaration that must be from an old version of the pageinspect extension by examining the number of attributes from the tuple descriptor for the return tuples. It seems better to throw an error in a reliable and obvious way following a Postgres upgrade, rather than letting bt_metap() fail unpredictably. The problem is fundamentally with the CREATE FUNCTION declared data types themselves, so I see no sensible alternative.

I noticed while testing some other stuff that the CHECK_ENCODING_ROUNDTRIP logic in ginCompressPostingList could account for over 50% of the runtime of an INSERT with a GIN index. While that's not relevant to production performance, it's still kind of annoying in a debug build. Replacing the loop around short memcmp's with one long memcmp works just as well and is significantly faster, at least on my machine.

Some reference pages contained id attributes on refname elements. These were apparently copied around from ancient times, but they don't serve a purpose. FOP issues minor warnings about them. So it's easiest to just remove them.

plperl's default handling of bool arguments or results is not terribly satisfactory, since Perl doesn't consider the string 'f' to be false. Ideally we'd just fix that, but the backwards-compatibility hazard would be substantial. Instead, build a TRANSFORM module that can be optionally applied to provide saner semantics. Perhaps usefully, this is also about the minimum possible skeletal example of a plperl transform module; so it might be a better starting point for user-written transform modules than hstore_plperl or jsonb_plperl.

SQL includes provisions for numeric Unicode escapes in string literals and identifiers. Previously we only accepted those if they represented ASCII characters or the server encoding was UTF-8, making the conversion to internal form trivial. This patch adjusts things so that we'll call the appropriate encoding conversion function in less-trivial cases, allowing the escape sequence to be accepted so long as it corresponds to some character available in the server encoding. This also applies to processing of Unicode escapes in JSONB. However, the old restriction still applies to client-side JSON processing, since that hasn't got access to the server's encoding conversion infrastructure. This patch includes some lexer infrastructure that simplifies throwing errors with error cursors pointing into the middle of a string (or other complex token). For the moment I only used it for errors relating to Unicode escapes, but we might later expand the usage to some other cases. Patch by me, reviewed by John Naylor.

Specifically, this patch allows ALTER TYPE to: * Change the default TOAST strategy for a toastable base type; * Promote a non-toastable type to toastable; * Add/remove binary I/O functions for a type; * Add/remove typmod I/O functions for a type; * Add/remove a custom ANALYZE statistics functions for a type. The first of these can be done by the type's owner; all the others require superuser privilege since misuse could cause problems. The main motivation for this patch is to allow extensions to upgrade the feature sets of their data types, so the set of alterable properties is biased towards that use-case. However it's also true that changing some other properties would be a lot harder, as they get baked into physical storage and/or stored expressions that depend on the type. Along the way, refactor GenerateTypeDependencies() to make it easier to call, refactor DefineType's volatility checks so they can be shared by AlterType, and teach typcache.c that it might have to reload data from the type's pg_type row, a scenario it never handled before. Also rearrange alter_type.sgml a bit for clarity (put the composite-type operations together). Tomas Vondra and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20200228004440.b23ein4qvmxnlpht@development

A long time ago, it was necessary to declare datatype I/O functions, triggers, and language handler support functions in a very type-unsafe way involving a single pseudo-type "opaque". We got rid of those conventions in 7.3, but there was still support in various places to automatically convert such functions to the modern declaration style, to be able to transparently re-load dumps from pre-7.3 servers. It seems unnecessary to continue to support that anymore, so take out the hacks; whereupon the "opaque" pseudo-type itself is no longer needed and can be dropped. This is part of a group of patches removing various server-side kluges for transparently upgrading pre-8.0 dump files. Since we've had few complaints about dropping pg_dump's support for dumping from pre-8.0 servers (commit 64f3524e), it seems okay to now remove these kluges.

Twenty years ago, we removed certain operator classes in favor of letting indexes over their data types be built with some other binary-compatible, more standard opclass. As a hack to allow existing index definitions to be dumped and reloaded, we made CREATE INDEX ignore the removed opclass names, so that such indexes would fall back to the new default opclass for their data types. This was never intended to be a long-lived thing; it carries the obvious risk of breaking some future developer's attempt to re-use those old opclass names. Since all of the cases in question are for opclasses that were removed before PG 8.0, it seems okay to get rid of these hacks now. This is part of a group of patches removing various server-side kluges for transparently upgrading pre-8.0 dump files.

Before 7.3, foreign key constraints had no explicit catalog representation, so that what pg_dump produced for them was (usually) a set of three CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER commands. Commit a2899ebd and some follow-on fixes added an ugly hack in CreateTrigger() to recognize that pattern and reconstruct the foreign key definition. However, we've never had any test coverage for that code, so that it's legitimate to wonder if it still works; and having to maintain it in the face of upcoming trigger-related patches seems rather pointless. Let's decree that its time has passed, and drop it. This is part of a group of patches removing various server-side kluges for transparently upgrading pre-8.0 dump files.

This commit fixes the following two issues around .pgpass file. (1) If the length of a line in .pgpass file was larger than 319B, libpq silently treated each 319B in the line as a separate setting line. (2) The document explains that a line beginning with # is treated as a comment in .pgpass. But there was no code doing such special handling. Whether a line begins with # or not, libpq just checked that the first token in the line match with the host. For (1), this commit makes libpq warn if the length of a line is larger than 319B, and throw away the remaining part beginning from 320B position. For (2), this commit changes libpq so that it treats any lines beginning with # as comments.

When canceling a REINDEX CONCURRENTLY operation after swapping is done, a drop of the parent table would leave behind old indexes. This is a consequence of 68ac9cf2, which fixed the case of pg_depend bloat when repeating REINDEX CONCURRENTLY on the same relation. In order to take care of the problem without breaking the previous fix, this uses a different strategy, possible even with the exiting set of routines to handle dependency changes. The dependencies of/on the new index are additionally switched to the old one, allowing an old invalid index remaining around because of a cancellation or a failure to use the dependency links of the concurrently-created index. This ensures that dropping any objects the old invalid index depends on also drops the old index automatically.

Optionally push a step to check for a NULL pointer to the pergroup state. This will be important for disk-based hash aggregation in combination with grouping sets. When memory limits are reached, a given tuple may find its per-group state for some grouping sets but not others. For the former, it advances the per-group state as normal; for the latter, it skips evaluation and the calling code will have to spill the tuple and reprocess it in a later batch. Add the NULL check as a separate expression step because in some common cases it's not needed. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20200221202212.ssb2qpmdgrnx52sj%40alap3.anarazel.de

Our usual practice for "poor man's enum" catalog columns is to define macros for the possible values and use those, not literal constants, in C code. But for some reason lost in the mists of time, this was never done for typalign/attalign or typstorage/attstorage. It's never too late to make it better though, so let's do that. The reason I got interested in this right now is the need to duplicate some uses of the TYPSTORAGE constants in an upcoming ALTER TYPE patch. But in general, this sort of change aids greppability and readability, so it's a good idea even without any specific motivation. I may have missed a few places that could be converted, and it's even more likely that pending patches will re-introduce some hard-coded references. But that's not fatal --- there's no expectation that we'd actually change any of these values. We can clean up stragglers over time. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16457.1583189537@sss.pgh.pa.us

to_char() has long allowed the TM (translation mode) prefix to specify output of translated month or day names; but that prefix had no effect in input format strings. Now it does. to_date() and to_timestamp() will now recognize the same month or day names that to_char() would output for the same format code. Matching is case-insensitive (per the active collation's notion of what that means), just as it has always been for English month/day names without the TM prefix. (As per the discussion thread, there are lots of cases that this feature will not handle, such as alternate day names. But being able to accept what to_char() will output seems useful enough.) In passing, fix some shaky English and violations of message style guidelines in jsonpath errors for the .datetime() method, which depends on this code.

Two recently added Assert() statements failed to consider this, leading to a crash with pg_upgrade'd BREE_VERSION < 4 indexes. Remove the assertions.

Using ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION causes an assertion failure when attempting to work on a partitioned index, because partitioned indexes cannot have partition bounds. The grammar of ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION requires partition bounds, but not ALTER INDEX, so mixing ALTER TABLE with partitioned indexes is confusing. Hence, on HEAD, prevent ALTER TABLE to attach a partition if the relation involved is a partitioned index. On back-branches, as applications may rely on the existing behavior, just remove the culprit assertion.

The backend was using strings to represent command tags and doing string comparisons in multiple places, but that's slow and unhelpful. Create a new command list with a supporting structure to use instead; this is stored in a tag-list-file that can be tailored to specific purposes with a caller-definable C macro, similar to what we do for WAL resource managers. The first first such uses are a new CommandTag enum and a CommandTagBehavior struct. Replace numerous occurrences of char *completionTag with a QueryCompletion struct so that the code no longer stores information about completed queries in a cstring. Only at the last moment, in EndCommand(), does this get converted to a string. EventTriggerCacheItem no longer holds an array of palloc’d tag strings in sorted order, but rather just a Bitmapset over the CommandTags.

When setting PG_COLOR to "always" or "auto" in a Windows terminal VT100-compatible, the colorization output was not showing up correctly because it is necessary to update the console's output handling mode. This fix allows to detect automatically if the environment is compatible with VT100. Hence, PG_COLOR=auto is able to detect and handle both compatible and non-compatible environments. The behavior of PG_COLOR=always remains unchanged, as it enforces the use of colorized output even if the environment does not allow it. This fix is based on an initial suggestion from Thomas Munro.
