Heikki updated configure.in but evidently forgot to include the updated
configure script in the commit.  Per buildfarm.

Commit fad153ec modified sinval.c to reduce
the number of calls into sinvaladt.c (which require taking a shared lock)
by keeping a local buffer of collected-but-not-yet-processed messages.
However, if processing of the last message in a batch resulted in a
recursive call to ReceiveSharedInvalidMessages, we could overwrite that
message with a new one while the outer invalidation function was still
working on it.  This would be likely to lead to invalidation of the wrong
cache entry, allowing subsequent processing to use stale cache data.
The fix is just to make a local copy of each message while we're processing
it.

Spotted by Andres Freund.  Back-patch to 8.4 where the bug was introduced.

Commit 261c7d4b removed the "m" field
from struct LINE, but neglected to make pg_type.h's idea of the type's
size match.  This resulted in reading past the end of palloc'd LINE
values when inserting them into tuples etc.  In principle that could
cause a SIGSEGV, though the odds of detectable problems seem low.

Bump catversion since this makes an incompatible on-disk format change.
Note that if the line type had been in use in the field, this would
break pg_upgrade'ability of databases containing line values; but
it seems unlikely that there are any (they'd have had to be compiled
with -DENABLE_LINE_TYPE).

This was accidentally broken in commits cfa1b4a7/5e8e794e.
It saves a line or so to call ftello unconditionally in _CloseArchive,
but we have to expect that it might fail if we're not in hasSeek mode.
Per report from Bernd Helmle.

In passing, improve _getFilePos to print an appropriate message if
ftello fails unexpectedly, rather than just a vague complaint about
"ftell mismatch".

This is entirely harmless, but still wrong. Noticed by coverity.

Andres Freund, noticed by coverity.

Silences coverity and is more consistent with other functions in the
same file.

Andres Freund

If they were not 'oldtup.t_data' would be dereferenced while set to NULL
in case of a full page image for block 0.

Do so primarily to silence coverity; but also to make sure this prerequisite
isn't changed without adapting the replay routine as that would appear to
work in many cases.

It's easy to forget using SYSTEMQUOTEs when constructing command strings
for system() or popen(). Even if we fix all the places missing it now, it is
bound to be forgotten again in the future. Introduce wrapper functions that
do the the extra quoting for you, and get rid of SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the
callers.

We previosly used SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the hard-coded command strings, and
this doesn't change the behavior of those. But user-supplied commands, like
archive_command, restore_command, COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM calls, as well as
pgbench's \shell, will now gain an extra pair of quotes. That is desirable,
but if you have existing scripts or config files that include an extra
pair of quotes, those might need to be adjusted.

ruleutils.c tries to cope with additions/deletions/renamings of columns in
tables referenced by views, by means of adding machine-generated aliases to
the printed form of a view when needed to preserve the original semantics.
A recent blog post by Marko Tiikkaja pointed out a case I'd missed though:
if one input of a join with USING is itself a join, there is nothing to
stop the user from adding a column of the same name as the USING column to
whichever side of the sub-join didn't provide the USING column.  And then
there'll be an error when the view is re-parsed, since now the sub-join
exposes two columns matching the USING specification.  We were catching a
lot of related cases, but not this one, so add some logic to cope with it.

Back-patch to 9.3, which is the first release that makes any serious
attempt to cope with such cases (cf commit 2ffa740b and follow-ons).

This test used to just define an unused static inline function and check
whether that causes a warning.  But newer clang versions warn about
unused static inline functions when defined inside a .c file, but not
when defined in an included header, which is the case we care about.
Change the test to cope.

If we have an array of records stored on disk, the individual record fields
cannot contain out-of-line TOAST pointers: the tuptoaster.c mechanisms are
only prepared to deal with TOAST pointers appearing in top-level fields of
a stored row.  The same applies for ranges over composite types, nested
composites, etc.  However, the existing code only took care of expanding
sub-field TOAST pointers for the case of nested composites, not for other
structured types containing composites.  For example, given a command such
as

UPDATE tab SET arraycol = ARRAY[(ROW(x,42)::mycompositetype] ...

where x is a direct reference to a field of an on-disk tuple, if that field
is long enough to be toasted out-of-line then the TOAST pointer would be
inserted as-is into the array column.  If the source record for x is later
deleted, the array field value would become a dangling pointer, leading
to errors along the line of "missing chunk number 0 for toast value ..."
when the value is referenced.  A reproducible test case for this was
provided by Jan Pecek, but it seems likely that some of the "missing chunk
number" reports we've heard in the past were caused by similar issues.

Code-wise, the problem is that PG_DETOAST_DATUM() is not adequate to
produce a self-contained Datum value if the Datum is of composite type.
Seen in this light, the problem is not just confined to arrays and ranges,
but could also affect some other places where detoasting is done in that
way, for example form_index_tuple().

I tried teaching the array code to apply toast_flatten_tuple_attribute()
along with PG_DETOAST_DATUM() when the array element type is composite,
but this was messy and imposed extra cache lookup costs whether or not any
TOAST pointers were present, indeed sometimes when the array element type
isn't even composite (since sometimes it takes a typcache lookup to find
that out).  The idea of extending that approach to all the places that
currently use PG_DETOAST_DATUM() wasn't attractive at all.

This patch instead solves the problem by decreeing that composite Datum
values must not contain any out-of-line TOAST pointers in the first place;
that is, we expand out-of-line fields at the point of constructing a
composite Datum, not at the point where we're about to insert it into a
larger tuple.  This rule is applied only to true composite Datums, not
to tuples that are being passed around the system as tuples, so it's not
as invasive as it might sound at first.  With this approach, the amount
of code that has to be touched for a full solution is greatly reduced,
and added cache lookup costs are avoided except when there actually is
a TOAST pointer that needs to be inlined.

The main drawback of this approach is that we might sometimes dereference
a TOAST pointer that will never actually be used by the query, imposing a
rather large cost that wasn't there before.  On the other side of the coin,
if the field value is used multiple times then we'll come out ahead by
avoiding repeat detoastings.  Experimentation suggests that common SQL
coding patterns are unaffected either way, though.  Applications that are
very negatively affected could be advised to modify their code to not fetch
columns they won't be using.

In future, we might consider reverting this solution in favor of detoasting
only at the point where data is about to be stored to disk, using some
method that can drill down into multiple levels of nested structured types.
That will require defining new APIs for structured types, though, so it
doesn't seem feasible as a back-patchable fix.

Note that this patch changes HeapTupleGetDatum() from a macro to a function
call; this means that any third-party code using that macro will not get
protection against creating TOAST-pointer-containing Datums until it's
recompiled.  The same applies to any uses of PG_RETURN_HEAPTUPLEHEADER().
It seems likely that this is not a big problem in practice: most of the
tuple-returning functions in core and contrib produce outputs that could
not possibly be toasted anyway, and the same probably holds for third-party
extensions.

This bug has existed since TOAST was invented, so back-patch to all
supported branches.

This was intended to work always, but the previous code only allowed
it if at least one message was successfully read by the receiver
before the sender detached the queue.

Report by Petr Jelinek.  Patch by me.

Commit a7301839 created rather a mess by
putting dependencies on backend-only include files into include/common.
We really shouldn't do that.  To clean it up:

* Move TABLESPACE_VERSION_DIRECTORY back to its longtime home in
catalog/catalog.h.  We won't consider this symbol part of the FE/BE API.

* Push enum ForkNumber from relfilenode.h into relpath.h.  We'll consider
relpath.h as the source of truth for fork numbers, since relpath.c was
already partially serving that function, and anyway relfilenode.h was
kind of a random place for that enum.

* So, relfilenode.h now includes relpath.h rather than vice-versa.  This
direction of dependency is fine.  (That allows most, but not quite all,
of the existing explicit #includes of relpath.h to go away again.)

* Push forkname_to_number from catalog.c to relpath.c, just to centralize
fork number stuff a bit better.

* Push GetDatabasePath from catalog.c to relpath.c; it was rather odd
that the previous commit didn't keep this together with relpath().

* To avoid needing relfilenode.h in common/, redefine the underlying
function (now called GetRelationPath) as taking separate OID arguments,
and make the APIs using RelFileNode or RelFileNodeBackend into macro
wrappers.  (The macros have a potential multiple-eval risk, but none of
the existing call sites have an issue with that; one of them had such a
risk already anyway.)

* Fix failure to follow the directions when "init" fork type was added;
specifically, the errhint in forkname_to_number wasn't updated, and neither
was the SGML documentation for pg_relation_size().

* Fix tablespace-path-too-long check in CreateTableSpace() to account for
fork-name component of maximum-length pathnames.  This requires putting
FORKNAMECHARS into a header file, but it was rather useless (and
actually unreferenced) where it was.

The last couple of items are potentially back-patchable bug fixes,
if anyone is sufficiently excited about them; but personally I'm not.

Per a gripe from Christoph Berg about how include/common wasn't
self-contained.

Since ruleutils.c recurses, it could be driven to stack overflow by
deeply nested constructs.  Very large queries might also take long
enough to deparse that a check for interrupts seems like a good idea.
Stick appropriate tests into a couple of key places.

Noted by Greg Stark.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

A query such as "SELECT x UNION SELECT y UNION SELECT z UNION ..."
produces a left-deep nested parse tree, which we formerly showed in its
full nested glory and with all the possible parentheses.  This does little
for readability, though, and long UNION lists resulting in excessive
indentation are common.  Instead, let's omit parentheses and indent all
the subqueries at the same level in such cases.

This patch skips indentation/parenthesization whenever the lefthand input
of a SetOperationStmt is another SetOperationStmt of the same kind and
ALL/DISTINCT property.  We could teach the code the exact syntactic
precedence of set operations and thereby avoid parenthesization in some
more cases, but it's not clear that that'd be a readability win: it seems
better to parenthesize if the set operation changes.  (As an example,
if there's one UNION in a long list of UNION ALL, it now stands out like
a sore thumb, which seems like a good thing.)

Back-patch to 9.3.  This completes our response to a complaint from Greg
Stark that since commit 62e66640 there's a performance problem in pg_dump
for views containing long UNION sequences (or other types of deeply nested
constructs).  The previous commit 0601cb54
handles the general problem, but this one makes the specific case of UNION
lists look a lot nicer.

Continuing to indent no matter how deeply nested we get doesn't really
do anything for readability; what's worse, it results in O(N^2) total
whitespace, which can become a performance and memory-consumption issue.

To address this, once we get past 40 characters of indentation, reduce
the indentation step distance 4x, and also limit the maximum indentation
by reducing it modulo 40.  This latter choice is a bit weird at first
glance, but it seems to preserve readability better than a simple cap
would do.

Back-patch to 9.3, because since commit 62e66640 the performance issue
is a hazard for pg_dump.

Greg Stark and Tom Lane

The code attempted to outdent JOIN clauses further left than the parent
FROM keyword, which was odd in any case, and led to inconsistent formatting
since in simple cases the clauses couldn't be moved any further left than
that.  And it left a permanent decrement of the indentation level, causing
subsequent lines to be much further left than they should be (again, this
couldn't be seen in simple cases for lack of indentation to give up).

After a little experimentation I chose to make it indent JOIN keywords
two spaces from the parent FROM, which is one space more than the join's
lefthand input in cases where that appears on a different line from FROM.

Back-patch to 9.3.  This is a purely cosmetic change, and the bug is quite
old, so that may seem arbitrary; but we are going to be making some other
changes to the indentation behavior in both HEAD and 9.3, so it seems
reasonable to include this in 9.3 too.  I committed this one first because
its effects are more visible in the regression test results as they
currently stand than they will be later.

Some popen() calls were missing SYSTEMQUOTEs, which caused initdb and
pg_upgrade to fail on Windows, if the installation path contained both
spaces and @ signs.

Patch by Nikhil Deshpande. Backpatch to all supported versions.

The error test case in the plpython_do test resulted in a slightly
different error message with Python 3.4.  So pick a different way to
test it that avoids that and is perhaps also a bit clearer.

In general we can't discard constant-NULL inputs, since they could change
the result of the AND/OR to be NULL.  But at top level of WHERE, we do not
need to distinguish a NULL result from a FALSE result, so it's okay to
treat NULL as FALSE and then simplify AND/OR accordingly.

This is a very ancient oversight, but in 9.2 and later it can lead to
failure to optimize queries that previous releases did optimize, as a
result of more aggressive parameter substitution rules making it possible
to reduce more subexpressions to NULL constants.  This is the root cause of
bug #10171 from Arnold Scheffler.  We could alternatively have fixed that
by teaching orclauses.c to ignore constant-NULL OR arms, but it seems
better to get rid of them globally.

I resisted the temptation to back-patch this change into all active
branches, but it seems appropriate to back-patch as far as 9.2 so that
there will not be performance regressions of the kind shown in this bug.

In writeListPage, never take a full-page image of the page, because we
have all the information required to re-initialize in the WAL record
anyway. Before this fix, a full-page image was always generated, unless
full_page_writes=off, because when the page is initialized its LSN is
always 0. In stable-branches, keep the code to restore the backup blocks
if they exist, in case that the WAL is generated with an older minor
version, but in master Assert that there are no full-page images.

In the redo routine, add missing "off++". Otherwise the tuples are added
to the page in reverse order. That happens to be harmless because we
always scan and remove all the tuples together, but it was clearly wrong.
Also, it was masked by the first bug unless full_page_writes=off, because
the page was always restored from a full-page image.

Backpatch to all supported versions.
