The Msys DTK perl, which is required to run TAP tests under Msys as a native perl won't recognize the correct virtual paths, has its osname recorded in the Config module as 'msys' instead of 'MSWin32'. To avoid having to repeat the test a variable is created that is true iff the osname is either of these values, and is then used everywhere that matters.

As in commit 0a52d378, avoid doing something that has undefined results according to the C standard, even though in practice there does not seem to be any problem with it. This fixes two places in numeric.c that demonstrably could call memcpy() with such arguments. I looked through that file and didn't see any other places with similar hazards; this is not to claim that there are not such places in other files. Per report from Piotr Stefaniak. Back-patch to 9.5 which is where the previous commit was added. We're more or less setting a precedent that we will not worry about this type of issue in pre-9.5 branches unless someone demonstrates a problem in the field.

An EAN beginning with 979 (but not 9790 - those are ISMN's) are accepted as ISBN numbers, but they cannot be represented in the old, 10-digit ISBN format. They must be output in the new 13-digit ISBN-13 format. We printed out an incorrect value for those. Also add a regression test, to test this and some other basic functionality of the module. Patch by Fabien Coelho. This fixes bug #13442, reported by B.Z. Backpatch to 9.1, where we started to recognize ISBN-13 numbers.

Commit c9b0cbe9 accidentally broke the order of operations during postmaster shutdown: it resulted in removing the per-socket lockfiles after, not before, postmaster.pid. This creates a race-condition hazard for a new postmaster that's started immediately after observing that postmaster.pid has disappeared; if it sees the socket lockfile still present, it will quite properly refuse to start. This error appears to be the explanation for at least some of the intermittent buildfarm failures we've seen in the pg_upgrade test. Another problem, which has been there all along, is that the postmaster has never bothered to close() its listen sockets, but has just allowed them to close at process death. This creates a different race condition for an incoming postmaster: it might be unable to bind to the desired listen address because the old postmaster is still incumbent. This might explain some odd failures we've seen in the past, too. (Note: this is not related to the fact that individual backends don't close their client communication sockets. That behavior is intentional and is not changed by this patch.) Fix by adding an on_proc_exit function that closes the postmaster's ports explicitly, and (in 9.3 and up) reshuffling the responsibility for where to unlink the Unix socket files. Lock file unlinking can stay where it is, but teach it to unlink the lock files in reverse order of creation.

If a call to WaitForXLogInsertionsToFinish() returned a value in the middle of a page, and another backend then started to insert a record to the same page, and then you called WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() again, the second call might return a smaller value than the first call. The problem was in GetXLogBuffer(), which always updated the insertingAt value to the beginning of the requested page, not the actual requested location. Because of that, the second call might return a xlog pointer to the beginning of the page, while the first one returned a later position on the same page. XLogFlush() performs two calls to WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() in succession, and holds WALWriteLock on the second call, which can deadlock if the second call to WaitXLogInsertionsToFinish() blocks. Reported by Spiros Ioannou. Backpatch to 9.4, where the more scalable WALInsertLock mechanism, and this bug, was introduced.

LWLockAttemptLock pointlessly read the lock's state in every loop iteration, even though pg_atomic_compare_exchange_u32() returns the old value. Instead do that only once before the loop iteration. Additionally there's no need to have the expected_state variable, old_state mostly had the same value anyway. Noticed-By: Heikki Linnakangas Backpatch: 9.5, no reason to let the branches diverge at this point

The lwlock scalability work introduced two race conditions into the lwlock variable support provided for xlog.c. First, and harmlessly on most platforms, it set/read the variable without the spinlock in some places. Secondly, due to the removal of the spinlock, it was possible that a backend missed changes to the variable's state if it changed in the wrong moment because checking the lock's state, the variable's state and the queuing are not protected by a single spinlock acquisition anymore. To fix first move resetting the variable's from LWLockAcquireWithVar to WALInsertLockRelease, via a new function LWLockReleaseClearVar. That prevents issues around waiting for a variable's value to change when a new locker has acquired the lock, but not yet set the value. Secondly re-check that the variable hasn't changed after enqueing, that prevents the issue that the lock has been released and already re-acquired by the time the woken up backend checks for the lock's state.

An outer join clause that didn't actually reference the RHS (perhaps only after constant-folding) could confuse the join order enforcement logic, leading to wrong query results. Also, nested occurrences of such things could trigger an Assertion that on reflection seems incorrect. Per fuzz testing by Andreas Seltenreich. The practical use of such cases seems thin enough that it's not too surprising we've not heard field reports about it. This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all active branches.

Per complaint from Peter Holzer. It's useful to cover this special case, since for a boolean variable "foo", earlier parts of the planner will have reduced variants like "foo = true" to just "foo", and thus we may fail to recognize the applicability of a partial index with predicate "foo IS NOT NULL". Back-patch to 9.5, but not further; given the lack of previous complaints this doesn't seem like behavior to change in stable branches.

In many cases, we can implement a semijoin as a plain innerjoin by first passing the righthand-side relation through a unique-ification step. However, one of the cases where this does NOT work is where the RHS has a LATERAL reference to the LHS; that makes the RHS dependent on the LHS so that unique-ification is meaningless. joinpath.c understood this, and so would not generate any join paths of this kind ... but join_is_legal neglected to check for the case, so it would think that we could do it. The upshot would be a "could not devise a query plan for the given query" failure once we had failed to generate any join paths at all for the bogus join pair. Back-patch to 9.3 where LATERAL was added.

The PGXS-case directory does not exist in the non-PGXS case, and vice versa. Add one or the other, not both. This is essentially cosmetic. It makes Makefile.win32 more like the similar Makefile.global code.

Responsibility was formerly split between Makefile.global and pgxs.mk. As a result of commit b58233c7, in the PGXS case, these variables were unset while parsing Makefile.global and callees. Inclusion of Makefile.custom did not work from PGXS, and the subtle difference seemed like a recipe for future bugs. Back-patch to 9.4, where that commit first appeared.

They are marked stable, but since they act on instantaneous state and it is possible to consult state of transactions as they commit, the results could change mid-query. They need to be marked volatile, and this commit does so. There would normally be a catversion bump here, but this is so much a niche feature and I don't believe there's real damage from the incorrect marking, that I refrained. Backpatch to 9.5, where commit timestamps where introduced. Per note from Fujii Masao.

The code was assuming that any NULL value in scan keys was due to IS NULL or IS NOT NULL, but it turns out to be possible to get them with other operators too, if they are used in contrived-enough ways. Easiest way out of the problem seems to check explicitely for the IS NOT NULL flag, instead of assuming it must be set if the IS NULL flag is not set, when a null scan key is found; if neither flag is set, follow the lead of other index AMs and assume that all indexable operators must be strict, and thus the query is never satisfiable. Also, add a comment to try and lure some future hacker into improving analysis of scan keys in brin. Per report from Andreas Seltenreich; diagnosis by Tom Lane. Backpatch to 9.5.

When retrieving policies, if not working on the root target relation, we actually want the relation's SELECT policies, regardless of the top level query command type. For example in UPDATE t1...FROM t2 we need to apply t1's UPDATE policies and t2's SELECT policies. Previously top level query command type was applied to all relations, which was wrong. Add some regression coverage to ensure we don't violate this principle in the future. Report and patch by Dean Rasheed. Cherry picked from larger refactoring patch and tweaked by me. Back-patched to 9.5 where RLS was introduced.

Although I think on all modern machines floating division by zero results in Infinity not SIGFPE, we still don't want infinities running around in the planner's costing estimates; too much risk of that leading to insane behavior. grouping_planner() failed to consider the possibility that final_rel might be known dummy and hence have zero rowcount. (I wonder if it would be better to set a rows estimate of 1 for dummy relations? But at least in the back branches, changing this convention seems like a bad idea, so I'll leave that for another day.) Make certain that get_variable_numdistinct() produces a nonzero result. The case that can be shown to be broken is with stadistinct < 0.0 and small ntuples; we did not prevent the result from rounding to zero. For good luck I applied clamp_row_est() to all the nonconstant return values. In ExecChooseHashTableSize(), Assert that we compute positive nbuckets and nbatch. I know of no reason to think this isn't the case, but it seems like a good safety check. Per reports from Piotr Stefaniak. Back-patch to all active branches.

The current version is adding a spurious -pthread option on some Darwin systems that don't need it, which leads to a bunch of "unrecognized option '-pthread'" warnings. There is a proposed fix for that in the upstream autoconf archive's bug tracker, see https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?8186. This commit updates our version of ax_pthread.m4 to the "draft2" version proposed there by Daniel Richard G. I'm using our buildfarm to help Daniel to test this, before he commits this to the upstream repository.

The reverted changes did not narrow the semantic gap between the MSVC build system and the GNU make build system. For targets old and new that run multiple suites (contribcheck, modulescheck, tapcheck), restore vcregress.pl to mimicking "make -k" rather than the "make -S" default. Lack of "-k" would be more burdensome than lack of "-S". Keep changes reflecting contemporary changes to the GNU make build system, and keep updates to Makefile parsing. Keep the loss of --psqldir in "check" and "ecpgcheck" targets; it had been a no-op when used alongside --temp-install. No log message mentioned any of the reverted changes. Based on a germ by Michael Paquier. Back-patch to 9.5.

This code relied on knowing exactly where in the source tree temporary installations might appear. A reasonable hacker may not think to update this code when adding use of a temporary installation, making it fragile. Observe that commit 9fa8b0ee broke it unnoticed, and commit dcae5fac fixed it unnoticed. Back-patch to 9.5 only; use of temporary installations is unlikely to change in released versions.

A Salesforce colleague of mine griped that the regression tests don't exercise EvalPlanQualFetchRowMarks() and allied routines. Which is a fair complaint. Add test cases that go through the REFERENCE and COPY code paths. Unfortunately we don't have sufficient infrastructure right now to exercise the FDW code path in the isolation tests, but this is surely better than before.

On Windows, use listen_address=127.0.0.1 to allow TCP connections. We were already using "pg_regress --config-auth" to set up HBA appropriately. The standard_initdb helper function now sets up the server's unix_socket_directories or listen_addresses in the config file, so that they don't need to be specified in the pg_ctl command line anymore. That way, the pg_ctl invocations in test programs don't need to differ between Windows and Unix. Add another helper function to configure the server's pg_hba.conf to allow replication connections. The configuration is done similarly to "pg_regress --config-auth": trust on domain sockets on Unix, and SSPI authentication on Windows. Replace calls to "cat" and "touch" programs with built-in perl code, as those programs don't normally exist on Windows. Add instructions in the docs on how to install IPC::Run on Windows. Adjust vcregress.pl to not replace PERL5LIB completely in vcregress.pl, because otherwise cannot install IPC::Run in a non-standard location easily. Michael Paquier, reviewed by Noah Misch, some additional tweaking by me.
