Integer overflow showed minus percent and minus remaining time something like this.
  239300000 of 3800000000 tuples (-48%) done (elapsed 226.86 s, remaining -696.10 s).

Apparently fat-fingered in 1a3d1044.
Noted by Peter Geoghegan.

We had coverage for functions returning setof a named composite type,
but not for anonymous records, which is a somewhat different code path.
In view of recent crash report from Sergey Konoplev, this seems worth
testing, though I doubt there's any deterministic bug here today.

Make the COPY test, which loads most of the large static tables used in
the tests, also explicitly ANALYZE those tables.  This allows us to get
rid of various ad-hoc, and rather redundant, ANALYZE commands that had
gotten stuck into various test scripts over time to ensure we got
consistent plan choices.  (We could have done a database-wide ANALYZE,
but that would cause stats to get attached to the small static tables
too, which results in plan changes compared to the historical behavior.
I'm not sure that's a good idea, so not going that far for now.)

Back-patch to 9.0, since 9.0 and 9.1 are currently sometimes failing
regression tests for lack of an "ANALYZE tenk1" in the subselect test.
There's no need for this in 8.4 since we didn't print any plans back
then.

There's no real point in not doing this.  It doesn't cost anything
in performance or space.  So let's go wild.

Andres Freund, with substantial editing as to style by me.

The test only needs the one table to be vacuumed.  Vacuuming the
database may affect other tests.

Per gripe from Tom Lane.  Back-patch to 9.3, where the test was
was added.

This was broken in d6464fdc.

When this reloption is set and wal_level=logical is configured,
we'll record the CIDs stamped by inserts, updates, and deletes to
the table just as we would for an actual catalog table.  This will
allow logical decoding to use historical MVCC snapshots to access
such tables just as they access ordinary catalog tables.

Replication solutions built around the logical decoding machinery
will likely need to set this operation for their configuration
tables; it might also be needed by extensions which perform table
access in their output functions.

Andres Freund, reviewed by myself and others.

When wal_level=logical, we'll log columns from the old tuple as
configured by the REPLICA IDENTITY facility added in commit
07cacba9.  This makes it possible
a properly-configured logical replication solution to correctly
follow table updates even if they change the chosen key columns,
or, with REPLICA IDENTITY FULL, even if the table has no key at
all.  Note that updates which do not modify the replica identity
column won't log anything extra, making the choice of a good key
(i.e. one that will rarely be changed) important to performance
when wal_level=logical is configured.

Each insert, update, or delete to a catalog table will also log
the CMIN and/or CMAX values of stamped by the current transaction.
This is necessary because logical decoding will require access to
historical snapshots of the catalog in order to decode some data
types, and the CMIN/CMAX values that we may need in order to judge
row visibility may have been overwritten by the time we need them.

An expression such as WHERE (... x IN (SELECT ...) ...) IN (SELECT ...)
could produce an invalid plan that results in a crash at execution time,
if the planner attempts to flatten the outer IN into a semi-join.
This happens because convert_testexpr() was not expecting any nested
SubLinks and would wrongly replace any PARAM_SUBLINK Params belonging
to the inner SubLink.  (I think the comment denying that this case could
happen was wrong when written; it's certainly been wrong for quite a long
time, since very early versions of the semijoin flattening logic.)

Per report from Teodor Sigaev.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

SQL-standard TABLE() is a subset of UNNEST(); they deal with arrays and
other collection types.  This feature, however, deals with set-returning
functions.  Use a different syntax for this feature to keep open the
possibility of implementing the standard TABLE().

Previous commit e5de6012 modified dblink
to ensure client encoding matched the server. However the added
PQsetClientEncoding() call added significant overhead. Restore original
performance in the common case where client encoding already matches
server encoding by doing nothing in that case. Applies to all active
branches.

This sets up ECDH key exchange, when compiling against OpenSSL that
supports EC.  Then the ECDHE-RSA and ECDHE-ECDSA cipher suites can be
used for SSL connections.  The latter one means that EC keys are now
usable.

The reason for EC key exchange is that it's faster than DHE and it
allows to go to higher security levels where RSA will be horribly slow.

There is also new GUC option ssl_ecdh_curve that specifies the curve
name used for ECDH.  It defaults to "prime256v1", which is the most
common curve in use in HTTPS.

The query ID is the internal hash identifier of the statement,
and was not available in pg_stat_statements view so far.

Daniel Farina, Sameer Thakur and Peter Geoghegan, reviewed by me.

By default, OpenSSL (and SSL/TLS in general) lets the client cipher
order take priority.  This is OK for browsers where the ciphers were
tuned, but few PostgreSQL client libraries make the cipher order
configurable.  So it makes sense to have the cipher order in
postgresql.conf take priority over client defaults.

This patch adds the setting "ssl_prefer_server_ciphers" that can be
turned on so that server cipher order is preferred.  Per discussion,
this now defaults to on.

Text from Adam Vande More

Previously, the requirements of how intermediate certificates were
handled and their chain to root certificates was unclear.

In 247c76a9, I added some code to do fine-grained checking of
MultiXact status of locking/updating transactions when traversing an
update chain.  There was a thinko in that patch which would have the
traversing abort, that is return HeapTupleUpdated, when the other
transaction is a committed lock-only.  In this case we should ignore it
and return success instead.  Of course, in the case where there is a
committed update, HeapTupleUpdated is the correct return value.

A user-visible symptom of this bug is that in REPEATABLE READ and
SERIALIZABLE transaction isolation modes spurious serializability errors
can occur:
  ERROR:  could not serialize access due to concurrent update

In order for this to happen, there needs to be a tuple that's key-share-
locked and also updated, and the update must abort; a subsequent
transaction trying to acquire a new lock on that tuple would abort with
the above error.  The reason is that the initial FOR KEY SHARE is seen
as committed by the new locking transaction, which triggers this bug.
(If the UPDATE commits, then the serialization error is correctly
reported.)

When running a query in READ COMMITTED mode, what happens is that the
locking is aborted by the HeapTupleUpdated return value, then
EvalPlanQual fetches the newest version of the tuple, which is then the
only version that gets locked.  (The second time the tuple is checked
there is no misbehavior on the committed lock-only, because it's not
checked by the code that traverses update chains; so no bug.) Only the
newest version of the tuple is locked, not older ones, but this is
harmless.

The isolation test added by this commit illustrates the desired
behavior, including the proper serialization errors that get thrown.

Backpatch to 9.3.

Current OpenSSL code includes a BIO_clear_retry_flags() step in the
sock_write() function.  Either we failed to copy the code correctly, or
they added this since we copied it.  In any case, lack of the clear step
appears to be the cause of the server lockup after connection loss reported
in bug #8647 from Valentine Gogichashvili.  Assume that this is correct
coding for all OpenSSL versions, and hence back-patch to all supported
branches.

Diagnosis and patch by Alexander Kukushkin.

HeapTupleSatisfiesUpdate can very easily "forget" tuple locks while
checking the contents of a multixact and finding it contains an aborted
update, by setting the HEAP_XMAX_INVALID bit.  This would lead to
concurrent transactions not noticing any previous locks held by
transactions that might still be running, and thus being able to acquire
subsequent locks they wouldn't be normally able to acquire.

This bug was introduced in commit 1ce150b7; backpatch this fix to 9.3,
like that commit.

This change reverts the change to the delete-abort-savept isolation test
in 1ce150b7, because that behavior change was caused by this bug.

Report from Erik Rijkers

This is the same trick we use when taking a full page image of a buffer
passed to XLogInsert.

Insertion to a non-leaf GIN page didn't make a full-page image of the page,
which is wrong. The code used to do it correctly, but was changed (commit
853d1c31) because the redo-routine didn't
track incomplete splits correctly when the page was restored from a full
page image. Of course, that was not right way to fix it, the redo routine
should've been fixed instead. The redo-routine was surreptitiously fixed
in 2010 (commit 4016bdef), so all we need
to do now is revert the code that creates the record to its original form.

This doesn't change the format of the WAL record.

Backpatch to all supported versions.

This function no longer takes an argument.

Previously missing or invalid service files returned NULL.  Also fix
pg_upgrade to report "out of memory" for a null return from
PQconndefaults().
