There is a handful of places where we called list_delete_ptr() to remove some element from a List. In many of these places we know, or with very little additional effort know the index of the ListCell that we need to remove. Here we change all of those places to instead either use one of; list_delete_nth_cell(), foreach_delete_current() or list_delete_last(). Each of these saves from having to iterate over the list to search for the element to remove by its pointer value. There are some small performance gains to be had by doing this, but in the general case, none of these lists are likely to be very large, so the lookup was probably never that expensive anyway. However, some of the calls are in fairly hot code paths, e.g process_equivalence(). So any small gains there are useful.

psql's \connect claims to be able to re-use previous connection parameters, but in fact it only re-uses the database name, user name, host name (and possibly hostaddr, depending on version), and port. This is problematic for assorted use cases. Notably, pg_dump[all] emits "\connect databasename" commands which we would like to have re-use all other parameters. If such a script is loaded in a psql run that initially had "-d connstring" with some non-default parameters, those other parameters would be lost, potentially causing connection failure. (Thus, this is the same kind of bug addressed in commits a45bc8a4 and 8e5793ab, although the details are much different.) To fix, redesign do_connect() so that it pulls out all properties of the old PGconn using PQconninfo(), and then replaces individual properties in that array. In the case where we don't wish to re-use anything, get libpq's default settings using PQconndefaults() and replace entries in that, so that we don't need different code paths for the two cases. This does result in an additional behavioral change for cases where the original connection parameters allowed multiple hosts, say "psql -h host1,host2", and the \connect request allows re-use of the host setting. Because the previous coding relied on PQhost(), it would only permit reconnection to the same host originally selected. Although one can think of scenarios where that's a good thing, there are others where it is not. Moreover, that behavior doesn't seem to meet the principle of least surprise, nor was it documented; nor is it even clear it was intended, since that coding long pre-dates the addition of multi-host support to libpq. Hence, this patch is content to drop it and re-use the host list as given. Per Peter Eisentraut's comments on bug #16604. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Should cause tests to be a bit faster

Theoretically one could go into src/test/thread and build/run this program there. In practice, that hasn't worked since 96bf88d5, and probably much longer on some platforms (likely including just the sort of hoary leftovers where this test might be of interest). While it wouldn't be too hard to repair the breakage, the fact that nobody has noticed for two years shows that there is zero usefulness in maintaining this build pathway. Let's get rid of it and decree that thread_test.c is *only* meant to be built/used in configure. Given that decision, it makes sense to put thread_test.c under config/ and get rid of src/test/thread altogether, so that's what I did. In passing, update src/test/README, which had been ignored by some not-so-recent additions of subdirectories. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/227659.1603041612@sss.pgh.pa.us

80f8eb79 has added to the normalization quick check headers some code generated by PerfectHash.pm that is incompatible with the settings of gitattributes for this repository, as whitespaces followed a set of tabs for the first element of a line in the table. Instead of adding a new exception to gitattributes, rework the format generated so as a right padding with spaces is used instead of a left padding. This keeps the table generated in a readable shape with its set of columns, making unnecessary an update of gitattributes.

More precisely, correctly handle the ONLY flag indicating not to recurse. This was implemented in 86f57594 by recursing in trigger.c, but that's the wrong place; use ATSimpleRecursion instead, which behaves properly. However, because legacy inheritance has never recursed in that situation, make sure to do that only for new-style partitioning.

When told to process all databases, clusterdb, reindexdb, and vacuumdb would reconnect by replacing their --maintenance-db parameter with the name of the target database. If that parameter is a connstring (which has been allowed for a long time, though we failed to document that before this patch), we'd lose any other options it might specify, for example SSL or GSS parameters, possibly resulting in failure to connect. Thus, this is the same bug as commit a45bc8a4 fixed in pg_dump and pg_restore. We can fix it in the same way, by using libpq's rules for handling multiple "dbname" parameters to add the target database name separately. I chose to apply the same refactoring approach as in that patch, with a struct to handle the command line parameters that need to be passed through to connectDatabase. (Maybe someday we can unify the very similar functions here and in pg_dump/pg_restore.) Per Peter Eisentraut's comments on bug #16604. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Since commit 913bbd88, check_sql_fn_retval() can either insert type coercion steps in-line in the Query that produces the SQL function's results, or generate a new top-level Query to perform the coercions, if modifying the Query's output in-place wouldn't be safe. However, it appears that the latter case has never actually worked, because the code tried to inject the new Query back into the query list it was passed ... which is not the list that will be used for later processing when we execute the SQL function "normally" (without inlining it). So we ended up with no coercion happening at run-time, leading to wrong results or crashes depending on the datatypes involved. While the regression tests look like they cover this area well enough, through a huge bit of bad luck all the test cases that exercise the separate-Query path were checking either inline-able cases (which accidentally didn't have the bug) or cases that are no-ops at runtime (e.g., varchar to text), so that the failure to perform the coercion wasn't obvious. The fact that the cases that don't work weren't allowed at all before v13 probably contributed to not noticing the problem sooner, too. To fix, get rid of the separate "flat" list of Query nodes and instead pass the real two-level list that is going to be used later. I chose to make the same change in check_sql_fn_statements(), although that has no actual bug, just so that we don't need that data structure at all. This is an API change, as evidenced by the adjustments needed to callers outside functions.c. That's a bit scary to be doing in a released branch, but so far as I can tell from a quick search, there are no outside callers of these functions (and they are sufficiently specific to our semantics for SQL-language functions that it's not apparent why any extension would need to call them). In any case, v13 already changed the API of check_sql_fn_retval() compared to prior branches. Per report from pinker. Back-patch to v13 where this code came in.

Store the tuple conversion map to convert a tuple from a child table's format to the root format in a new ri_ChildToRootMap field in ResultRelInfo. It is initialized if transition tuple capture for FOR STATEMENT triggers or INSERT tuple routing on a partitioned table is needed. Previously, ModifyTable kept the maps in the per-subplan ModifyTableState->mt_per_subplan_tupconv_maps array, or when tuple routing was used, in ResultRelInfo->ri_Partitioninfo->pi_PartitionToRootMap. The new field replaces both of those. Now that the child-to-root tuple conversion map is always available in ResultRelInfo (when needed), remove the TransitionCaptureState.tcs_map field. The callers of Exec*Trigger() functions no longer need to set or save it, which is much less confusing and bug-prone. Also, as a future optimization, this will allow us to delay creating the map for a given result relation until the relation is actually processed during execution.

When executing DDL on a partitioned table or on a table with inheritance children, statement-level triggers must be fired against the table given in the original statement. The code to look that up was a bit messy and duplicative. Commit 501ed02c added a helper function, getASTriggerResultRelInfo() (later renamed to getTargetResultRelInfo()) for it, but for some reason it was only used when firing AFTER STATEMENT triggers and the code to fire BEFORE STATEMENT triggers duplicated the logic. Determine the target relation in ExecInitModifyTable(), and set it always in ModifyTableState. Code that used to call getTargetResultRelInfo() can now use ModifyTableState->rootResultRelInfo directly.

When allocating a EVP context, it would have been possible to leak some memory allocated directly by OpenSSL, that PostgreSQL lost track of if the initialization of the context allocated failed. The cleanup can be done with EVP_MD_CTX_destroy(). Note that EVP APIs exist since OpenSSL 0.9.7 and we have in the tree equivalent implementations for older versions since ce9b75db (code removed with 9b7cd59a as of 10~). However, in 9.5 and 9.6, the existing code makes use of EVP_MD_CTX_destroy() and EVP_MD_CTX_create() without an equivalent implementation when building the tree with OpenSSL 0.9.6 or older, meaning that this code is in reality broken with such versions since it got introduced in e2838c5. As we have heard no complains about that, it does not seem worth bothering with in 9.5 and 9.6, so I have left that out for simplicity.

Given a query with enough joins, it was possible that the query planner, after multiplying the row estimates with the join selectivity that the estimated number of rows would exceed the limits of the double data type and become infinite. To give an indication on how extreme a case is required to hit this, the particular example case reported required 379 joins to a table without any statistics, which resulted in the 1.0/DEFAULT_NUM_DISTINCT being used for the join selectivity. This eventually caused the row estimates to go infinite and resulted in an assert failure in initial_cost_mergejoin() where the infinite row estimated was multiplied by an outerstartsel of 0.0 resulting in NaN. The failing assert verified that NaN <= Inf, which is false. To get around this we use clamp_row_est() to cap row estimates at a maximum of 1e100. This value is thought to be low enough that costs derived from it would remain within the bounds of what the double type can represent. Aside from fixing the failing Assert, this also has the added benefit of making it so add_path() will still receive proper numerical values as costs which will allow it to make more sane choices when determining the cheaper path in extreme cases such as the one described above. Additionally, we also get rid of the isnan() checks in the join costing functions. The actual case which originally triggered those checks to be added in the first place never made it to the mailing lists. It seems likely that the new code being added to clamp_row_est() will result in those becoming checks redundant, so just remove them. The fairly harmless assert failure problem does also exist in the backbranches, however, a more minimalistic fix will be applied there.

According to Microsoft's documentation, 2.2 has been the current version since Windows 98 or so. Moreover, that's what the Postgres backend has been requesting since 2004 (cf commit 4cdf51e6). So there seems no reason for libpq to keep asking for 1.1. Bring thread_test along, too, so that we're uniformly asking for 2.2 in all our WSAStartup calls. It's not clear whether there's any point in back-patching this, so for now I didn't. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/132799.1602960277@sss.pgh.pa.us

Failure to write data to a large object during restore led to an ugly and uninformative error message. To add insult to injury, it then fatal'd out, where other SQL-level errors usually result in pressing on. Report the underlying error condition, rather than just giving not-very- useful byte counts, and use warn_or_exit_horribly() so as to adhere to pg_restore's general policy about whether to continue or not. Also recognize that lo_write() returns int not size_t. Per report from Justin Pryzby, though I didn't use his patch. Given the lack of comparable complaints, I'm not sure this is worth back-patching.

The Windows documentation insists that every WSAStartup call should have a matching WSACleanup call. However, if that ever had actual relevance, it wasn't in this century. Every remotely-modern Windows kernel is capable of cleaning up when a process exits without doing that, and must be so to avoid resource leaks in case of a process crash. Moreover, Postgres backends have done WSAStartup without WSACleanup since commit 4cdf51e6 in 2004, and we've never seen any indication of a problem with that. libpq's habit of doing WSAStartup during connection start and WSACleanup during shutdown is also rather inefficient, since a series of non-overlapping connection requests leads to repeated, quite expensive DLL unload/reload cycles. We document a workaround for that (having the application call WSAStartup for itself), but that's just a kluge. It's also worth noting that it's far from uncommon for applications to exit without doing PQfinish, and we've not heard reports of trouble from that either. However, the real reason for acting on this is that recent experiments by Alexander Lakhin suggest that calling WSACleanup during PQfinish might be triggering the symptom we occasionally see that a process using libpq fails to emit expected stdio output. Therefore, let's change libpq so that it calls WSAStartup only once per process, during the first connection attempt, and never calls WSACleanup at all. While at it, get rid of the only other WSACleanup call in our code tree, in pg_dump/parallel.c; that presumably is equally useless. If this proves to suppress the fairly-common ecpg test failures we see on Windows, I'll back-patch, but for now let's just do it in HEAD and see what happens.

This changes zic's default output format from "-b fat" to "-b slim". We were already using "slim" in v13/HEAD, so those branches drop the explicit -b switch in the Makefiles. Instead, add an explicit "-b fat" in v12 and before, so that we don't change the output file format in those branches. (This is perhaps excessively conservative, but we decided not to do so in a1207910, and I'll stick with that.) Other non-cosmetic changes are to drop support for zic's long-obsolete "-y" switch, and to ensure that strftime() does not change errno unless it fails.

Commit 32a9c0bd introduced connection retry logic into postgres_fdw. Previously it used goto statement for retry. This commit gets rid of that goto from the logic to make the code simpler and easier-to-read. When getting out of PG_CATCH() for the retry, the error state should be cleaned up and the memory context should be reset. But commit 32a9c0bd forgot to do that. This commit also fixes this bug. Previously only PQstatus()==CONNECTION_BAD was verified to detect connection failure. But this could cause false detection in the case where any error other than connection failure (e.g., out-of-memory) was thrown after a broken connection was detected in libpq and CONNECTION_BAD is set. To fix this issue, this commit changes the logic so that it also checks the error's sqlstate is ERRCODE_CONNECTION_FAILURE.

Previously we only copied the function attributes. That caused problems at least on s390x: Because we didn't copy the 'zeroext' attribute for ExecAggTransReparent()'s *IsNull parameters, expressions invoking it didn't ensure that the upper bytes of the registers were zeroed. In the - relatively rare - cases where not, ExecAggTransReparent() wrongly ended up in the newValueIsNull branch due to the register not being zero. Subsequently causing a crash. It's quite possible that this would cause problems on other platforms, and in other places than just ExecAggTransReparent() on s390x.
