If we attempt to create a DSM segment when no slots are available, we should return the memory to the operating system. Previously we did that if the DSM_CREATE_NULL_IF_MAXSEGMENTS flag was passed in, but we didn't do it if an error was raised. Repair. Back-patch to 9.4, where DSM segments arrived.

This code would accept "strinX", where X is any 1-byte character, as meaning "string". Clearly it wasn't meant to do that. No back-patch, since this doesn't affect correct queries and there's some tiny chance we'd break somebody's incorrect query in a minor release. Report and patch by Dominik Czarnota.

Commit fc769589 changed CheckAttributeType to recurse into ranges, but made it pass down the wrong collation (always InvalidOid, since ranges as such have no collation). This would result in guaranteed failure when considering a range type whose subtype is collatable. Embarrassingly, we lack any regression tests that would expose such a problem (but fortunately, somebody noticed before we shipped this bug in any release). Fix it to pass down the range's subtype collation property instead, and add some regression test cases to exercise collatable-subtype ranges a bit more. Back-patch to all supported branches, as the previous patch was.

If we failed to fork a worker process, or create a communication pipe for one, WaitForTerminatingWorkers would suffer an assertion failure if assert-enabled, otherwise crash or go into an infinite loop. This was a consequence of not accounting for the startup condition where we've not yet forked all the workers. The original bug was that ParallelBackupStart would set workerStatus to WRKR_IDLE before it had successfully forked a worker. I made things worse in commit b7b8cc0c by not understanding the undocumented fact that the WRKR_TERMINATED state was also meant to represent the case where a worker hadn't been started yet: I changed enum T_WorkerStatus so that *all* the worker slots were initially in WRKR_IDLE state. But this wasn't any more broken in practice, since even one slot in the wrong state would keep WaitForTerminatingWorkers from terminating. In v10 and later, introduce an explicit T_WorkerStatus value for worker-not-started, in hopes of preventing future oversights of the same ilk. Before that, just document that WRKR_TERMINATED is supposed to cover that case (partly because it wasn't actively broken, and partly because the enum is exposed outside parallel.c in those branches, so there's microscopically more risk involved in changing it). In all branches, introduce a WORKER_IS_RUNNING status test macro to hide which T_WorkerStatus values mean that, and be more careful not to access ParallelSlot fields till we're sure they're valid. Per report from Vignesh C, though this is my patch not his. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CALDaNm1Luv-E3sarR+-unz-BjchquHHyfP+YC+2FS2pt_J+wxg@mail.gmail.com

We have code paths for Unix socket support and no Unix socket support. Now add a third variant: Unix socket support but do not use a Unix socket by default in the client or the server, only if you explicitly specify one. This will be useful when we enable Unix socket support on Windows. To implement this, tweak things so that setting DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR to "" has the desired effect. This mostly already worked like that; only a few places needed to be adjusted. Notably, the reference to DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR in UNIXSOCK_PATH() could be removed because all callers already resolve an empty socket directory setting with a default if appropriate.

When running a lot of large parallel queries concurrently, or a plan with a lot of separate Gather nodes, it is possible to run out of DSM slots. There are better solutions to these problems requiring architectural redesign work, but for now, let's adjust the constants so that it's more difficult to hit the limit. 1. Previously, a DSA area would create up to four segments at each size before doubling the size. After this commit, it will create only two at each size, so it ramps up faster and therefore needs fewer slots. 2. Previously, the total limit on DSM slots allowed for 2 per connection. Switch to 5 per connection. Also remove an obsolete nearby comment.

Very recent gcc complains that PLyObject_ToJsonbValue could return a pointer to a local variable. I think it's wrong; but the coding is fragile enough, and the savings of one palloc() minimal enough, that it seems better to just do a palloc() all the time.

We used to strategically place newlines after some function call left parentheses to make pgindent move the argument list a few chars to the left, so that the whole line would fit under 80 chars.

Advancing a physical replication slot with pg_replication_slot_advance() did not mark the slot as dirty if any advancing was done, preventing the follow-up checkpoint to flush the slot data to disk. This caused the advancing to be lost even on clean restarts. This does not happen for logical slots as any advancing marked the slot as dirty. Per discussion, the original feature has been implemented so as in the event of a crash the slot may move backwards to a past LSN. This property is kept and more documentation is added about that. This commit adds some new TAP tests to check the persistency of physical and logical slots after advancing across clean restarts.

This patch creates a new extension property, "trusted". An extension that's marked that way in its control file can be installed by a non-superuser who has the CREATE privilege on the current database, even if the extension contains objects that normally would have to be created by a superuser. The objects within the extension will (by default) be owned by the bootstrap superuser, but the extension itself will be owned by the calling user. This allows replicating the old behavior around trusted procedural languages, without all the special-case logic in CREATE LANGUAGE. We have, however, chosen to loosen the rules slightly: formerly, only a database owner could take advantage of the special case that allowed installation of a trusted language, but now anyone who has CREATE privilege can do so. Having done that, we can delete the pg_pltemplate catalog, moving the knowledge it contained into the extension script files for the various PLs. This ends up being no change at all for the in-core PLs, but it is a large step forward for external PLs: they can now have the same ease of installation as core PLs do. The old "trusted PL" behavior was only available to PLs that had entries in pg_pltemplate, but now any extension can be marked trusted if appropriate. This also removes one of the stumbling blocks for our Python 2 -> 3 migration, since the association of "plpythonu" with Python 2 is no longer hard-wired into pg_pltemplate's initial contents. Exactly where we go from here on that front remains to be settled, but one problem is fixed. Patch by me, reviewed by Peter Eisentraut, Stephen Frost, and others.

EvalPlanQualStart() supposed that it could re-use the relsubs_rowmark and relsubs_done arrays from a prior instantiation. But since they are allocated in the es_query_cxt of the recheckestate, that's just wrong; EvalPlanQualEnd() will blow away that storage. Therefore we were using storage that could have been reallocated to something else, causing all sorts of havoc. I think this was modeled on the old code's handling of es_epqTupleSlot, but since the code was anyway clearing the arrays at re-use, there's clearly no expectation of importing any outside state. So it's just a dubious savings of a couple of pallocs, which is negligible compared to setting up a new planstate tree. Therefore, just allocate the arrays always. (I moved the allocations slightly for readability.) In principle this bug could cause a problem whenever EPQ rechecks are needed in more than one target table of a ModifyTable plan node. In practice it seems not quite so easy to trigger as that; I couldn't readily duplicate a crash with a partitioned target table, for instance. That's probably down to incidental choices about when to free or reallocate stuff. The added isolation test case does seem to reliably show an assertion failure, though. Per report from Oleksii Kliukin. Back-patch to v12 where the bug was introduced (evidently by commit 3fb307bc4). Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/EEF05F66-2871-4786-992B-5F45C92FEE2E@hintbits.com

It's not OK to do that without calling CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(). Let the next wait loop deal with it, following the usual pattern. One consequence of this bug was that a SIGTERM delivered in a very narrow timing window could leave a parallel worker process waiting forever for a condition variable that will never be signaled, after an error was raised in other process. The code is a bit different in the stable branches due to commit 1321509f, making problems less likely there. No back-patch for now, but we may finish up deciding to make a similar change after more discussion.

Instead, it now returns a value indicating either success or the type of error which occurred. The old behavior is still available by calling pg_parse_json_or_ereport(). If the new interface is used, an error can be thrown by passing the return value of pg_parse_json() to json_ereport_error(). pg_parse_json() can still elog() in can't-happen cases, but it seems like that issue is best handled separately.

In non-TEXT output formats, the "Settings" field should appear when requested, even if it would be empty. Also, get rid of the premature optimization of counting all the GUC_EXPLAIN variables at startup. Since there was no provision for adjusting that count later, all it'd take would be some extension marking a parameter as GUC_EXPLAIN to risk an assertion failure or memory stomp. We could make get_explain_guc_options() count those variables on-the-fly, or dynamically resize its array ... but TBH I do not think that making a transient array of pointers a bit smaller is worth any extra complication, especially when you consider all the other transient space EXPLAIN eats. So just allocate that array at the max possible size. In HEAD, also add some regression test coverage for this feature.

In a statement like "UPDATE remote_tab SET (x,y) = (SELECT ...)", we'd conclude that the statement could be directly executed remotely, because the sub-SELECT is in a resjunk tlist item that's not examined for shippability. Currently that ends up crashing if the sub-SELECT contains any remote Vars. Prevent the crash by deeming MULTIEXEC Params to be unshippable. This is a bit of a brute-force solution, since if the sub-SELECT *doesn't* contain any remote Vars, the current execution technology would work; but that's not a terribly common use-case for this syntax, I think. In any case, we generally don't try to ship sub-SELECTs, so it won't surprise anybody that this doesn't end up as a remote direct update. I'd be inclined to see if that general limitation can be fixed before worrying about this case further. Per report from Lukáš Sobotka.

The signature of XLogReadRecord() required the caller to pass the starting WAL position as argument, or InvalidXLogRecPtr to continue reading at the end of previous record. That's slightly awkward to the callers, as most of them don't want to randomly jump around in the WAL stream, but start reading at one position and then read everything from that point onwards. Remove the 'RecPtr' argument and add a new function XLogBeginRead() to specify the starting position instead. That's more convenient for the callers. Also, xlogreader holds state that is reset when you change the starting position, so having a separate function for doing that feels like a more natural fit. This changes XLogFindNextRecord() function so that it doesn't reset the xlogreader's state to what it was before the call anymore. Instead, it positions the xlogreader to the found record, like XLogBeginRead().
