stdint.h belongs to the compiler (as opposed to inttypes.h), so by requiring a C99 compiler we can also require stdint.h unconditionally. Remove configure checks and other workarounds for it. This also removes a few steps in the required portability adjustments to the imported time zone code, which can be applied on the next import. When using GCC on a platform that is otherwise pre-C99, this will now require at least GCC 4.5, which is the first release that supplied a standard-conforming stdint.h if the native platform didn't have it.

e2e02191 has removed a code path for Windows 2000 that attempts to load wship6.dll as fallback if ws2_32.dll is found but not getaddrinfo(), leaving behind a dangling pointer as the library is freed.

Creating a bunch of non-overlapping partial indexes is generally a bad idea, so add an example saying not to do that. Back-patch to v10.

Andres Freund pointed out that allowing non-superusers to run "CREATE EXTENSION ... FROM unpackaged" has security risks, since the unpackaged-to-1.0 scripts don't try to verify that the existing objects they're modifying are what they expect. Just attaching such objects to an extension doesn't seem too dangerous, but some of them do more than that. We could have resolved this, perhaps, by still requiring superuser privilege to use the FROM option. However, it's fair to ask just what we're accomplishing by continuing to lug the unpackaged-to-1.0 scripts forward. None of them have received any real testing since 9.1 days, so they may not even work anymore (even assuming that one could still load the previous "loose" object definitions into a v13 database). And an installation that's trying to go from pre-9.1 to v13 or later in one jump is going to have worse compatibility problems than whether there's a trivial way to convert their contrib modules into extension style. Hence, let's just drop both those scripts and the core-code support for "CREATE EXTENSION ... FROM". Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20200213233015.r6rnubcvl4egdh5r@alap3.anarazel.de

The function hash table keys made by compute_function_hashkey() failed to distinguish event-trigger call context from regular call context. This meant that once we'd successfully made a hash entry for an event trigger (either by validation, or by normal use as an event trigger), an attempt to call the trigger function as a plain function would find this hash entry and thereby bypass the you-can't-do-that check in do_compile(). Thus we'd attempt to execute the function, leading to strange errors or even crashes, depending on function contents and server version. To fix, add an isEventTrigger field to PLpgSQL_func_hashkey, paralleling the longstanding infrastructure for regular triggers. This fits into what had been pad space, so there's no risk of an ABI break, even assuming that any third-party code is looking at these hash keys. (I considered replacing isTrigger with a PLpgSQL_trigtype enum field, but felt that that carried some API/ABI risk. Maybe we should change it in HEAD though.) Per bug #16266 from Alexander Lakhin. This has been broken since event triggers were invented, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16266-fcd7f838e97ba5d4@postgresql.org

Prior to this commit, the read buffer was allocated at the time the tape was rewound; but as an optimization, would not be allocated at all if the tape was empty. That optimization meant that it was valid to have a rewound tape with the buffer set to NULL, but only if a number of conditions were met and only if the API was used properly. After 7fdd919a refactored the code to support lazily-allocating the buffer, Coverity started complaining. The optimization for empty tapes doesn't seem important, so just allocate the buffer whether the tape has any data or not. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20351.1581868306%40sss.pgh.pa.us

VACUUM may truncate heap in several batches. The activity report is logged for each batch, and contains the number of pages in the table before and after the truncation, and also the elapsed time during the truncation. Previously the elapsed time reported in each batch was the total elapsed time since starting the truncation until finishing each batch. For example, if the truncation was processed dividing into three batches, the second batch reported the accumulated time elapsed during both first and second batches. This is strange and confusing because the number of pages in the table reported together is not total. Instead, each batch should report the time elapsed during only that batch. The cause of this issue was that the resource usage snapshot was initialized only at the beginning of the truncation and was never reset later. This commit fixes the issue by changing VACUUM so that the resource usage snapshot is reset at each batch. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Manifested as ERROR: subtransaction logged without previous top-level txn record this check forbids legit behaviours like - First xl_xact_assignment record is beyond reading, i.e. earlier restart_lsn. - After restart_lsn there is some change of a subxact. - After that, there is second xl_xact_assignment (for another subxact) revealing the relationship between top and first subxact. Such a transaction won't be streamed anyway because we hadn't seen it in full. Saying for sure whether xact of some record encountered after the snapshot was deserialized can be streamed or not requires to know whether it wrote something before deserialization point --if yes, it hasn't been seen in full and can't be decoded. Snapshot doesn't have such info, so there is no easy way to relax the check.

Previously, LOCK TABLE command through a parent table checked the permissions on not only the parent table but also the children tables inherited from it. This was a bug and inherited queries should perform access permission checks on the parent table only. This commit fixes LOCK TABLE so that it does not check the permission on children tables. This patch is applied only in the master branch. We decided not to back-patch because it's not hard to imagine that there are some applications expecting the old behavior and the change breaks their security.

The extraUpdatedCols field of the target RTE records which generated columns are affected by an update. This is used in a variety of places, including per-column triggers and foreign data wrappers. When an update was initiated by a logical replication subscription, this field was not filled in, so such an update would not affect generated columns in a way that is consistent with normal updates. To fix, factor out some code from analyze.c to fill in extraUpdatedCols in the logical replication worker as well.

Commit 0da33c76 introduced an unfortunate regression in pg_ctl on Windows: if the log file specified with -l doesn't exist yet, and pg_ctl is running with Administrator privileges, then the log file might get created with permissions that prevent the postmaster from writing on it. (It seems that whether this happens depends on whether the log file is inside the user's home directory or not, and perhaps on other phase-of-the-moon conditions, which may explain why we failed to notice it sooner.) To fix, just don't create the log file if it doesn't exist yet. The case where we need to wait obviously only occurs with a pre-existing log file. In passing, switch from using fopen() to plain open(), saving a few cycles. Per bug #16259 from Jonathan Katz and Heath Lord. Back-patch to v12, as the faulty commit was.

Practically everybody who's ever added a column to one of the bootstrap catalogs has been burnt by the need to update the relnatts field in the initial pg_class data to match. Now that we use Perl scripts to generate postgres.bki, we can have the machines take care of that, by filling the field during genbki.pl. While at it, use the BKI_DEFAULTS mechanism to eliminate repetitive specifications of other column values in pg_class.dat, too. They weren't particularly a maintenance problem, but this way is prettier (certainly the spotty previous usage of BKI_DEFAULTS wasn't pretty). No catversion bump needed, since this doesn't actually change the contents of postgres.bki. Per gripe from Justin Pryzby, though this is quite different from his originally proposed solution.

The stylesheets used for the HTML documentation rendered on postgresql.org have shifted, and no longer matched what was expected by "make STYLE=website html" builds performed locally. Local doc builds did not reflect other aspects of the website, including font and margins. This patch updates the references to use the current set of stylesheets that are used by the documentation on postgresql.org. This also wraps the documentation preview in a HTML container so it can keep the content within similar margins to those found on the website. The documentation on building the docs is updated to reflect this change, and to let the documentation builder know that an external network connection is required to properly preview documentation built with "make STYLE=website html" (which was true prior to this patch too, but not mentioned).

This allows these modules to be installed into a database without superuser privileges (assuming that the DBA or sysadmin has installed the module's files in the expected place).

Commit 6bf0bc84 replaced float.c's CHECKFLOATVAL() macro with static inline subroutines, but that wasn't too well thought out. In the original coding, the unlikely condition (isinf(result) or result == 0) was checked first, and the inf_is_valid or zero_is_valid condition only afterwards. The inline-subroutine coding caused that to be swapped around, which is pretty horrid for performance because (a) in common cases the is_valid condition is twice as expensive to evaluate (e.g., requiring two isinf() calls not one) and (b) in common cases the is_valid condition is false, requiring us to perform the unlikely-condition check anyway. Net result is that one isinf() call becomes two or three, resulting in visible performance loss as reported by Keisuke Kuroda. The original fix proposal was to revert the replacement of the macro, but on second thought, that macro was just a bad idea from the beginning: if anything it's a net negative for readability of the code. So instead, let's just open-code all the overflow/underflow tests, being careful to test the unlikely condition first (and mark it unlikely() to help the compiler get the point). Also, rather than having N copies of the actual ereport() calls, collapse those into out-of-line error subroutines to save some code space. This does mean that the error file/line numbers won't be very helpful for figuring out where the issue really is --- but we'd already burned that bridge by putting the ereports into static inlines. In HEAD, check_float[48]_val() are gone altogether. In v12, leave them present in float.h but unused in the core code, just in case some extension is depending on them.

Use a top-level "variablelist", with one item per B-Tree support function. This structure matches the structure used by various "Extensibility" sections in other documentation chapters for other index access methods. An explicit list makes it much clearer where each item begins and ends. This wasn't really a problem before now, but an upcoming patch that adds deduplication to nbtree will need to have its own new B-Tree support function. Ease the burden of translators by tidying up btree.sgml ahead of committing the deduplication patch.

The GRANTED BY clause in GRANT/REVOKE ROLE has been there since 2005 but was never documented. I'm not sure now whether that was just an oversight or was intentional (given the limited capability of the option). But seeing that pg_dumpall does emit code that uses this option, it seems like not documenting it at all is a bad idea. Also, when we upgraded the syntax to allow CURRENT_USER/SESSION_USER as the privilege recipient, the role form of GRANT was incorrectly not modified to show that, and REVOKE's docs weren't touched at all. Although I'm not that excited about GRANTED BY, the other oversight seems serious enough to justify a back-patch. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3070.1581526786@sss.pgh.pa.us
