The raw page data that is passed into the functions will not be aligned at 8-byte boundaries. Casting that to a struct and accessing int64 fields will result in unaligned access. On most platforms, you get away with it, but it will result on a crash on pickier platforms such as ia64 and sparc64.

LockBufferForCleanup() acquires a cleanup lock unconditionally, and ConditionalLockBufferForCleanup() acquires a cleanup lock if it is possible to do so without waiting; this patch adds a new API, IsBufferCleanupOK(), which tests whether an exclusive lock already held happens to be a cleanup lock. This is possible because a cleanup lock simply means an exclusive lock plus the assurance any other pins on the buffer are newer than our own pin. Therefore, just as the existing functions decide that the exclusive lock that they've just taken is a cleanup lock if they observe the pin count to be 1, this new function allows us to observe that the pin count is 1 on a buffer we've already locked. This is useful in situations where a backend definitely wishes to modify the buffer and also wishes to perform cleanup operations if possible. The patch to eliminate heavyweight locking by hash indexes uses this, and it may have other applications as well. Amit Kapila, per a suggestion from me. Some comment adjustments by me as well.

This patch absorbs some unreleased fixes for symlink manipulation bugs introduced in tzcode 2016g. Ordinarily I'd wait around for a released version, but in this case it seems like we could do with extra testing, in particular checking whether it works in EDB's VMware build environment. This corresponds to commit aec59156abbf8472ba201b6c7ca2592f9c10e077 in https://github.com/eggert/tz. Per a report from Sandeep Thakkar, building in an environment where hard links are not supported in the timezone data installation directory failed, because upstream code refactoring had broken the case of symlinking from an existing symlink. Further experimentation also showed that the symlinks were sometimes made incorrectly, with too many or too few "../"'s in the symlink contents. This should get back-patched, but first let's see what the buildfarm makes of it. I'm not too sure about the new dependency on linkat(2).

It's also possible to specify a separate port for each host. Previously, we'd loop over every address returned by looking up the host name; now, we'll try every address for every host name. Patch by me. Victor Wagner wrote an earlier patch for this feature, which I read, but I didn't use any of his code. Review by Mithun Cy.

The foreign-key-aware logic for estimation of join sizes (added in commit 100340e2) blindly tried to apply the concept to rels that are actually parents of inheritance trees. This is just plain wrong so far as the referenced relation is concerned, since the inheritance scan may well produce lots of rows that are not participating in the constraint. It's wrong for the referencing relation too, for the same reason; although on that end we could conceivably detect whether all members of the inheritance tree have equivalent FK constraints pointing to the same referenced rel, and then proceed more or less as we do now. But pending somebody writing code to do that, we must disable this, because it's producing completely silly estimates when there's an FK linking the heads of inheritance trees. Per bug #14404 from Clinton Adams. Back-patch to 9.6 where the new estimation logic came in. Report: <20161028200412.15987.96482@wrigleys.postgresql.org>

While converting expressions in an upper-level plan node so that they reference Vars and expressions provided by the input plan node(s), don't convert plain Const items, even if there happens to be a matching Const in the input. It's silly to do so because a Var is more expensive to execute than a Const. Moreover, converting can fool ExecCheckPlanOutput's check that an insert or update query inserts nulls into dropped columns, leading to "query provides a value for a dropped column" errors during INSERT or UPDATE on a table with a dropped column. We could solve this by making that check more complicated, but I don't see the point; this fix should save a marginal number of cycles, and it also makes for less messy EXPLAIN output, as shown by the ensuing regression test result changes. Per report from Pavel Hanák. I have not incorporated a test case based on that example, as there doesn't seem to be a simple way of checking this in isolation without making a bunch of assumptions about other planner and SQL-function behavior. Back-patch to 9.6. This setrefs.c behavior exists much further back, but there is not currently reason to think that it causes problems before 9.6. Discussion: <83shraampf.fsf@is-it.eu>

tsquery_rewrite() tries to find matches to subsets of AND/OR conditions; for example, in the query 'a | b | c' the substitution subquery 'a | c' should match and lead to replacement of the first and third items. That's fine, but the matching algorithm apparently takes about O(2^N) for an N-clause query (I say "apparently" because the code is also both unintelligible and uncommented). We could probably do better than that even without any extra assumptions --- but actually, we know that the subclauses are sorted, indeed are depending on that elsewhere in this very same function. So we can just scan the two lists a single time to detect matches, as though we were doing a merge join. Also do a re-flattening call (QTNTernary()) in tsquery_rewrite_query, just to make sure that the tree fits the expectations of the next search cycle. I didn't try to devise a test case for this, but I'm pretty sure that the oversight could have led to failure to match in some cases where a match would be expected. Improve comments, and also stick a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into dofindsubquery, just in case it's still too slow for somebody. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to all supported branches.

QTNTernary() contains logic to flatten, eg, '(a & b) & c' into 'a & b & c', which is all well and good, but it tries to do that to NOT nodes as well, so that '!!a' gets changed to '!a'. Explicitly restrict the conversion to be done only on AND and OR nodes, and add a test case illustrating the bug. In passing, provide some comments for the sadly naked functions in tsquery_util.c, and simplify some baroque logic in QTNFree(), which I think may have been leaking some items it intended to free. Noted while investigating a complaint from Andreas Seltenreich. Back-patch to all supported versions.

In the previous coding, if an aggregate's transition function returned an expanded array, nodeAgg.c and nodeWindowAgg.c would always copy it and thus force it into the flat representation. This led to ping-ponging between flat and expanded formats, which costs a lot. For an aggregate using array_append as transition function, I measured about a 15X slowdown compared to the pre-9.5 code, when working on simple int[] arrays. Of course, the old code was already O(N^2) in this usage due to copying flat arrays all the time, but it wasn't quite this inefficient. To fix, teach nodeAgg.c and nodeWindowAgg.c to allow expanded transition values without copying, so long as the transition function takes care to return the transition value already properly parented under the aggcontext. That puts a bit of extra responsibility on the transition function, but doing it this way allows us to not need any extra logic in the fast path of advance_transition_function (ie, with a pass-by-value transition value, or with a modified-in-place pass-by-reference value). We already know that that's a hot spot so I'm loath to add any cycles at all there. Also, while only array_append currently knows how to follow this convention, this solution allows other transition functions to opt-in without needing to have a whitelist in the core aggregation code. (The reason we would need a whitelist is that currently, if you pass a R/W expanded-object pointer to an arbitrary function, it's allowed to do anything with it including deleting it; that breaks the core agg code's assumption that it should free discarded values. Returning a value under aggcontext is the transition function's signal that it knows it is an aggregate transition function and will play nice. Possibly the API rules for expanded objects should be refined, but that would not be a back-patchable change.) With this fix, an aggregate using array_append is no longer O(N^2), so it's much faster than pre-9.5 code rather than much slower. It's still a bit slower than the bespoke infrastructure for array_agg, but the differential seems to be only about 10%-20% rather than orders of magnitude. Discussion: <6315.1477677885@sss.pgh.pa.us>

It's currently necessary to take a heavyweight lock when scanning a hash bucket, but pgstattuple only examines individual pages, so it doesn't need to do this. If, for some hypothetical reason, it did need to do any heavyweight locking here, this logic would probably still be incorrect, because most of the locks that it is taking are meaningless. Only a heavyweight lock on a primary bucket page has any meaning, but this takes heavyweight locks on all pages regardless of function - and in particular overflow pages, where you might imagine that we'd want to lock the primary bucket page if we needed to lock anything at all. This is arguably a bug that has existed since this code was added in commit dab42382, but I'm not going to bother back-patching it because in most cases the only consequence is that running pgstattuple() on a hash index is a little slower than it otherwise might be, which is no big deal. Extracted from a vastly larger patch by Amit Kapila which heavyweight locking for hash indexes entirely; analysis of why this can be done independently of the rest by me.

The error message when we couldn't determine the encoding from a locale said to report a bug about that. That might have been appropriate when this code was first added, but by now this works pretty solidly and any encodings we don't recognize we probably just don't support. We still print the warning, but no longer invite the bug report.

If a restartpoint flushed no dirty buffers, it could fail to update the minimum recovery point, leading to a minimum recovery point prior to the starting REDO location. perform_base_backup() would interpret that as meaning that no WAL files at all needed to be included in the backup, failing an internal sanity check. To fix, have restartpoints always update the minimum recovery point to just after the checkpoint record itself, so that the file (or files) containing the checkpoint record will always be included in the backup. Code by Amit Kapila, per a design suggestion by me, with some additional work on the code comment by me. Test case by Michael Paquier. Report by Kyotaro Horiguchi.

The code to change the deferrability properties of a foreign-key constraint updated all the associated triggers to match; but a moment's examination of the code that creates those triggers in the first place shows that only some of them should track the constraint's deferrability properties. This leads to odd failures in subsequent exercise of the foreign key, as the triggers are fired at the wrong times. Fix that, and add a regression test comparing the trigger properties produced by ALTER CONSTRAINT with those you get by creating the constraint as-intended to begin with. Per report from James Parks. Back-patch to 9.4 where this ALTER functionality was introduced. Report: <CAJ3Xv+jzJ8iNNUcp4RKW8b6Qp1xVAxHwSXVpjBNygjKxcVuE9w@mail.gmail.com>

I broke this in commit f3094920. Apparently it's dead code anyway, at least as far as our buildfarm is concerned (and the upstream IANA code doesn't worry at all about symlink() not being present). But as long as the rest of our code is willing to guard against not having symlink(), this should too. Noted while investigating a tangentially-related complaint from Sandeep Thakkar. Back-patch to keep branches in sync.

Clarify documentation about inheritance of check constraints, in particular mentioning the NO INHERIT option, which didn't exist when this text was written. Document that in an inherited query, the applicable row security policies are those of the explicitly-named table, not its children. This is the intended behavior (per off-list discussion with Stephen Frost), and there are regression tests for it, but it wasn't documented anywhere user-facing as far as I could find. Do a bit of wordsmithing on the description of inherited access-privilege checks. Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was added.
