This adds a key management system that stores (currently) two data encryption keys of length 128, 192, or 256 bits. The data keys are AES256 encrypted using a key encryption key, and validated via GCM cipher mode. A command to obtain the key encryption key must be specified at initdb time, and will be run at every database server start. New parameters allow a file descriptor open to the terminal to be passed. pg_upgrade support has also been added.

Buildfarm members pogona and petalura have shown a failure when pg_ctl/t/004_logrotate.pl starts just before local midnight. The default rotate-at-midnight behavior occurs just before the Perl script examines current_logfiles, so it figures that the rotation it's already requested has occurred ... but in reality, that rotation happens just after it looks, so the expected new log data goes into a different file than the one it's examining. In HEAD, src/test/kerberos/t/001_auth.pl has acquired similar code that evidently has a related failure mode. Besides being quite new, few buildfarm critters run that test, so it's unsurprising that we've not yet seen a failure there. Fix both cases by setting log_rotation_age = 0 so that no time-based rotation can occur. Also absorb 004_logrotate.pl's decision to set lc_messages = 'C' into the kerberos test, in hopes that it will work in non-English prevailing locales.

If a database shutdown (smart or fast) is commanded between the time some process decides to request a new background worker and the time that the postmaster can launch that worker, then nothing happens because the postmaster won't launch any bgworkers once it's exited PM_RUN state. This is fine ... unless the requesting process is waiting for that worker to finish (or even for it to start); in that case the requestor is stuck, and only manual intervention will get us to the point of being able to shut down. To fix, cancel pending requests for workers when the postmaster sends shutdown (SIGTERM) signals, and similarly cancel any new requests that arrive after that point. (We can optimize things slightly by only doing the cancellation for workers that have waiters.) To fit within the existing bgworker APIs, the "cancel" is made to look like the worker was started and immediately stopped, causing deregistration of the bgworker entry. Waiting processes would have to deal with premature worker exit anyway, so this should introduce no bugs that weren't there before. We do have a side effect that registration records for restartable bgworkers might disappear when theoretically they should have remained in place; but since we're shutting down, that shouldn't matter. Back-patch to v10. There might be value in putting this into 9.6 as well, but the management of bgworkers is a bit different there (notably see 8ff51869) and I'm not convinced it's worth the effort to validate the patch for that branch.

Up to now, if the DBA issued "pg_ctl stop -m immediate", the message sent to clients was the same as for a crash-and-restart situation. This is confusing, not least because the message claims that the database will soon be up again, something we have no business predicting. Improve things so that we can generate distinct messages for the two cases (and also recognize an ad-hoc SIGQUIT, should somebody try that). To do that, add a field to pmsignal.c's shared memory data structure that the postmaster sets just before broadcasting SIGQUIT to its children. No interlocking seems to be necessary; the intervening signal-sending and signal-receipt should sufficiently serialize accesses to the field. Hence, this isn't any riskier than the existing usages of pmsignal.c. We might in future extend this idea to improve other postmaster-to-children signal scenarios, although none of them currently seem to be as badly overloaded as SIGQUIT.

The parsing of this parameter has been using strtoul(), which is not portable across platforms. On most Unix platforms, unsigned long has a size of 64 bits, while on Windows it is 32 bits. It is common in recovery scenarios to rely on the output of txid_current() or even the newer pg_current_xact_id() to get a transaction ID for setting up recovery_target_xid. The value returned by those functions includes the epoch in the computed result, which would cause strtoul() to fail where unsigned long has a size of 32 bits once the epoch is incremented. WAL records and 2PC data include only information about 32-bit XIDs and it is not possible to have XIDs across more than one epoch, so discarding the high bits from the transaction ID set has no impact on recovery. On the contrary, the use of strtoul() prevents a consistent behavior across platforms depending on the size of unsigned long. This commit changes the parsing of recovery_target_xid to use pg_strtouint64() instead, available down to 9.6. There is one TAP test stressing recovery with recovery_target_xid, where a tweak based on pg_reset{xlog,wal} is added to bump the XID epoch so as this change gets tested, as per an idea from Alexander Lakhin.

Bad things happen if the DBA issues "pg_ctl stop -m fast" before autoprewarm finishes loading its list of blocks to prewarm. The current worker process successfully terminates early, but (if this wasn't the last database with blocks to prewarm) the leader process will just try to launch another worker for the next database. Since the postmaster is now in PM_WAIT_BACKENDS state, it ignores the launch request, and the leader just sits until it's killed manually. This is mostly the fault of our half-baked design for launching background workers, but a proper fix for that is likely to be too invasive to be back-patchable. To ameliorate the situation, fix apw_load_buffers() to check whether SIGTERM has arrived just before trying to launch another worker. That leaves us with only a very narrow window in each worker launch where SIGTERM could occur between the launch request and successful worker start. Another issue is that if the leader process does manage to exit, it unconditionally rewrites autoprewarm.blocks with only the blocks currently in shared buffers, thus forgetting any blocks that we hadn't reached yet while prewarming. This seems quite unhelpful, since the next database start will then not have the expected prewarming benefit. Fix it to not modify the file if we shut down before the initial load attempt is complete. Per bug #16785 from John Thompson. Back-patch to v11 where the autoprewarm code was introduced.

While we do allow SRFs in ORDER BY, scan/join processing should not consider such cases - such sorts should only happen via final Sort atop a ProjectSet.

The jsonb || jsonb operator arbitrarily rejected certain combinations of scalar and non-scalar inputs, while being willing to concatenate other combinations. This was of course quite undocumented. Rather than trying to document it, let's just remove the restriction, creating a uniform rule that unless we are handling an object-to-object concatenation, non-array inputs are converted to one-element arrays, resulting in an array-to-array concatenation. (This does not change the behavior for any case that didn't throw an error before.) Per complaint from Joel Jacobson. Back-patch to all supported branches.

But 4e3a6163 removed the supporting text that explained when to use it, making it just confusing. So drop it.

Multiranges are basically sorted arrays of non-overlapping ranges with set-theoretic operations defined over them. Since v14, each range type automatically gets a corresponding multirange datatype. There are both manual and automatic mechanisms for naming multirange types. Once can specify multirange type name using multirange_type_name attribute in CREATE TYPE. Otherwise, a multirange type name is generated automatically. If the range type name contains "range" then we change that to "multirange". Otherwise, we add "_multirange" to the end. Implementation of multiranges comes with a space-efficient internal representation format, which evades extra paddings and duplicated storage of oids. Altogether this format allows fetching a particular range by its index in O(n). Statistic gathering and selectivity estimation are implemented for multiranges. For this purpose, stored multirange is approximated as union range without gaps. This field will likely need improvements in the future. Catversion is bumped.

Commit 257836a7 added the "locale" subdirectory to SUBDIRS, but neglected to remove it from ALWAYS_SUBDIRS. This oversight had no functional effect because the filter-out function would remove it anyway. Still, it's confusing to readers to list a subdirectory in both places, especially because it makes the associated comment into a partial lie.

A narrow reading of the C standard says that memcpy(x,x,n) is undefined, although it's hard to envision an implementation that would really misbehave. However, analysis tools such as valgrind might whine about this; accordingly, let's band-aid relmapper.c to not do it. See also 5b630501, d3f4e8a8, ad7b48ea, and other similar fixes. Apparently, none of those folk tried valgrinding initdb? This has been like this for long enough that I'm surprised it hasn't been reported before. Back-patch, just in case anybody wants to use a back branch on a platform that complains about this; we back-patched those earlier fixes too.

This commit adds "stats_reset" column into the pg_stat_statements_info view. This column indicates the time at which all statistics in the pg_stat_statements view were last reset. Per discussion, this commit also changes pg_stat_statements_info code so that "dealloc" column is reset at the same time as "stats_reset" is reset, i.e., whenever all pg_stat_statements entries are removed, for the sake of consistency. Previously "dealloc" was reset only when pg_stat_statements_reset(0, 0, 0) is called and was not reset when pg_stat_statements_reset() with non-zero value argument discards all entries. This was confusing.

Revert ac22929a, as well as the followup fix 113d3591. Because it broke the assumption that the startup process waiting for the recovery conflict on buffer pin should be waken up only by buffer unpin or the timeout enabled in ResolveRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin(). It caused, for example, SIGHUP signal handler or walreceiver process to wake that startup process up unnecessarily frequently. Additionally, add the comments about why that dedicated latch that the reverted patch tried to get rid of should not be removed. Thanks to Kyotaro Horiguchi for the discussion.

To build Gather Merge path, the input needs to be sufficiently sorted. Ensuring this is the responsibility of the code constructing the paths, but create_gather_merge_plan tried to handle unsorted paths by adding an explicit Sort. In light of the recent issues related to Incremental Sort, this is rather fragile. Some of the expressions may be volatile or parallel unsafe, in which case we can't add the Sort here. We could do more checks and add the Sort in at least some cases, but it seems cleaner to just error out and make it clear this is a bug in code constructing those paths.

Many older tests where written in a style like SELECT '' AS two, i.* FROM INT2_TBL where the first column indicated the number of expected result rows. This has gotten increasingly out of date, as the test data fixtures have expanded, so a lot of these were wrong and misleading. Moreover, this style isn't really necessary, since the psql output already shows the number of result rows. To clean this up, remove all those extra columns.

Invent a new flag bit HASH_STRINGS to specify C-string hashing, which was formerly the default; and add assertions insisting that exactly one of the bits HASH_STRINGS, HASH_BLOBS, and HASH_FUNCTION be set. This is in hopes of preventing recurrences of the type of oversight fixed in commit a1b8aa1e (i.e., mistakenly omitting HASH_BLOBS). Also, when HASH_STRINGS is specified, insist that the keysize be more than 8 bytes. This is a heuristic, but it should catch accidental use of HASH_STRINGS for integer or pointer keys. (Nearly all existing use-cases set the keysize to NAMEDATALEN or more, so there's little reason to think this restriction should be problematic.) Tweak hash_create() to insist that the HASH_ELEM flag be set, and remove the defaults it had for keysize and entrysize. Since those defaults were undocumented and basically useless, no callers omitted HASH_ELEM anyway. Also, remove memset's zeroing the HASHCTL parameter struct from those callers that had one. This has never been really necessary, and while it wasn't a bad coding convention it was confusing that some callers did it and some did not. We might as well save a few cycles by standardizing on "not". Also improve the documentation for hash_create(). In passing, improve reinit.c's usage of a hash table by storing the key as a binary Oid rather than a string; and, since that's a temporary hash table, allocate it in CurrentMemoryContext for neatness.
