Documentation and comments in code and tests have been using the terms
sensitive/insensitive cursor incorrectly relative to the SQL standard.
(Cursor sensitivity is only relevant for changes made in the same
transaction as the cursor, not for concurrent changes in other
sessions.)  Moreover, some of the behavior of PostgreSQL is incorrect
according to the SQL standard, confusing the issue further.  (WHERE
CURRENT OF changes are not visible in insensitive cursors, but they
should be.)

This change corrects the terminology and removes the claim that
sensitive cursors are supported.  It also adds a test case that checks
the insensitive behavior in a "correct" way, using a change command
not using WHERE CURRENT OF.  Finally, it adds the ASENSITIVE cursor
option to select the default asensitive behavior, per SQL standard.

There are no changes to cursor behavior in this patch.

The previous wording contained a superfluous comma.  Adjust phrasing
for grammatical correctness and clarity.

Bloom, GIN, GiST and SP-GiST rely on PageInit() to initialize the
contents of a page, and this routine fills entirely a page with zeros
for a size of BLCKSZ, including the special space.  Those index AMs have
been using an extra memset() call to fill with zeros the special page
space, or even the whole page, which is not necessary as PageInit()
already does this work, so let's remove them.  GiST was not doing this
extra call, but has commented out a system call that did so since
62369911.

While on it, remove one MAXALIGN() for SP-GiST as PageInit() takes care
of that.  This makes the whole page initialization logic more consistent
across all index AMs.

The "authenticated identity" is the string used by an authentication
method to identify a particular user.  In many common cases, this is the
same as the PostgreSQL username, but for some third-party authentication
methods, the identifier in use may be shortened or otherwise translated
(e.g. through pg_ident user mappings) before the server stores it.

To help administrators see who has actually interacted with the system,
this commit adds the capability to store the original identity when
authentication succeeds within the backend's Port, and generates a log
entry when log_connections is enabled.  The log entries generated look
something like this (where a local user named "foouser" is connecting to
the database as the database user called "admin"):

  LOG:  connection received: host=[local]
  LOG:  connection authenticated: identity="foouser" method=peer (/data/pg_hba.conf:88)
  LOG:  connection authorized: user=admin database=postgres application_name=psql

Port->authn_id is set according to the authentication method:

  bsd: the PostgreSQL username (aka the local username)
  cert: the client's Subject DN
  gss: the user principal
  ident: the remote username
  ldap: the final bind DN
  pam: the PostgreSQL username (aka PAM username)
  password (and all pw-challenge methods): the PostgreSQL username
  peer: the peer's pw_name
  radius: the PostgreSQL username (aka the RADIUS username)
  sspi: either the down-level (SAM-compatible) logon name, if
        compat_realm=1, or the User Principal Name if compat_realm=0

The trust auth method does not set an authenticated identity.  Neither
does clientcert=verify-full.

Port->authn_id could be used for other purposes, like a superuser-only
extra column in pg_stat_activity, but this is left as future work.

PostgresNode::connect_{ok,fails}() have been modified to let tests check
the backend log files for required or prohibited patterns, using the
new log_like and log_unlike parameters.  This uses a method based on a
truncation of the existing server log file, like issues_sql_like().
Tests are added to the ldap, kerberos, authentication and SSL test
suites.

Delay creation of the projections for INSERT and UPDATE tuples

Arrange to do some things on-demand, rather than immediately during
executor startup, because there's a fair chance of never having to do
them at all:

* Don't open result relations' indexes until needed.

* Don't initialize partition tuple routing, nor the child-to-root
tuple conversion map, until needed.

This wins in UPDATEs on partitioned tables when only some of the
partitions will actually receive updates; with larger partition
counts the savings is quite noticeable.  Also, we can remove some
sketchy heuristics in ExecInitModifyTable about whether to set up
tuple routing.

Also, remove execPartition.c's private hash table tracking which
partitions were already opened by the ModifyTable node.  Instead
use the hash added to ModifyTable itself by commit 86dc9005.

To allow lazy computation of the conversion maps, we now set
ri_RootResultRelInfo in all child ResultRelInfos.  We formerly set it
only in some, not terribly well-defined, cases.  This has user-visible
side effects in that now more error messages refer to the root
relation instead of some partition (and provide error data in the
root's column order, too).  It looks to me like this is a strict
improvement in consistency, so I don't have a problem with the
output changes visible in this commit.

Commit f49bcd4e disallowed postgres_fdw to import table partitions.
Because all data can be accessed through the partitioned table which
is the root of the partitioning hierarchy, importing only partitioned
table should allow access to all the data without creating extra objects.
This is a reasonable default when importing a whole schema. But there
may be the case where users want to explicitly import one of
a partitioned tables' partitions.

For that use case, this commit allows postgres_fdw to import tables or
foreign tables which are partitions of some other table only when they
are explicitly specified in LIMIT TO clause.  It doesn't change
the behavior that any partitions not specified in LIMIT TO are
automatically excluded in IMPORT FOREIGN SCHEMA command.

Snapshot caching, introduced in 623a9ba7, did not increment
xactCompletionCount during subtransaction abort. That could lead to an older
snapshot being reused. That is, at least as far as I can see, not a
correctness issue (for MVCC snapshots there's no difference between "in
progress" and "aborted"). The only difference between the old and new
snapshots would be a newer ->xmax.

While HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC makes the same visibility determination, reusing
the old snapshot leads HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC to not set
HEAP_XMIN_INVALID. Which subsequently causes the kill_prior_tuple optimization
to not kick in (via HeapTupleIsSurelyDead() returning false). The performance
effects of doing the same index-lookups over and over again is how the issue
was discovered...

Fix the issue by incrementing xactCompletionCount in
XidCacheRemoveRunningXids. It already acquires ProcArrayLock exclusively,
making that an easy proposition.

Add a test to ensure that kill_prior_tuple prevents index growth when it
involves aborted subtransaction of the current transaction.

Retry the call to heap_prune_page() in rare cases where there is
disagreement between the heap_prune_page() call and the call to
HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() that immediately follows.  Disagreement is
possible when a concurrently-aborted transaction makes a tuple DEAD
during the tiny window between each step.  This was the only case where
a tuple considered DEAD by VACUUM still had storage following pruning.
VACUUM's definition of dead tuples is now uniformly simple and
unambiguous: dead tuples from each page are always LP_DEAD line pointers
that were encountered just after we performed pruning (and just before
we considered freezing remaining items with tuple storage).

Eliminating the tupgone=true special case enables INDEX_CLEANUP=off
style skipping of index vacuuming that takes place based on flexible,
dynamic criteria.  The INDEX_CLEANUP=off case had to know about skipping
indexes up-front before now, due to a subtle interaction with the
special case (see commit dd695979) -- this was a special case unto
itself.  Now there are no special cases.  And so now it won't matter
when or how we decide to skip index vacuuming: it won't affect how
pruning behaves, and it won't be affected by any of the implementation
details of pruning or freezing.

Also remove XLOG_HEAP2_CLEANUP_INFO records.  These are no longer
necessary because we now rely entirely on heap pruning taking care of
recovery conflicts.  There is no longer any need to generate recovery
conflicts for DEAD tuples that pruning just missed.  This also means
that heap vacuuming now uses exactly the same strategy for recovery
conflicts as index vacuuming always has: REDO routines never need to
process a latestRemovedXid from the WAL record, since earlier REDO of
the WAL record from pruning is sufficient in all cases.  The generic
XLOG_HEAP2_CLEAN record type is now split into two new record types to
reflect this new division (these are called XLOG_HEAP2_PRUNE and
XLOG_HEAP2_VACUUM).

Also stop acquiring a super-exclusive lock for heap pages when they're
vacuumed during VACUUM's second heap pass.  A regular exclusive lock is
enough.  This is correct because heap page vacuuming is now strictly a
matter of setting the LP_DEAD line pointers to LP_UNUSED.  No other
backend can have a pointer to a tuple located in a pinned buffer that
can be invalidated by a concurrent heap page vacuum operation.

Heap vacuuming can now be thought of as conceptually similar to index
vacuuming and conceptually dissimilar to heap pruning.  Heap pruning now
has sole responsibility for anything involving the logical contents of
the database (e.g., managing transaction status information, recovery
conflicts, considering what to do with HOT chains).  Index vacuuming and
heap vacuuming are now only concerned with recycling garbage items from
physical data structures that back the logical database.

Bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC due to pruning and heap page vacuum WAL record
changes.

Credit for the idea of retrying pruning a page to avoid the tupgone case
goes to Andres Freund.

Add a lazy_scan_heap() subsidiary function that handles heap pruning and
tuple freezing: lazy_scan_prune().  This is a great deal cleaner.  The
code that remains in lazy_scan_heap()'s per-block loop can now be
thought of as code that either comes before or after the call to
lazy_scan_prune(), which is now the clear focal point.  This division is
enforced by the way in which we now manage state.  lazy_scan_prune()
outputs state (using its own struct) that describes what to do with the
page following pruning and freezing (e.g., visibility map maintenance,
recording free space in the FSM).  It doesn't get passed any special
instructional state from the preamble code, though.

Also cleanly separate the logic used by a VACUUM with INDEX_CLEANUP=off
from the logic used by single-heap-pass VACUUMs.  The former case is now
structured as the omission of index and heap vacuuming by a two pass
VACUUM.  The latter case goes back to being used only when the table
happens to have no indexes (just as it was before commit a96c41fe).
This structure is much more natural, since the whole point of
INDEX_CLEANUP=off is to skip the index and heap vacuuming that would
otherwise take place.  The single-heap-pass case doesn't skip any useful
work, though -- it just does heap pruning and heap vacuuming together
when the table happens to have no indexes.

Both of these changes are preparation for an upcoming patch that
generalizes the mechanism used by INDEX_CLEANUP=off.  The later patch
will allow VACUUM to give up on index and heap vacuuming dynamically, as
problems emerge (e.g., with wraparound), so that an affected VACUUM
operation can finish up as soon as possible.

Also fix a very old bug in single-pass VACUUM VERBOSE output.  We were
reporting the number of tuples deleted via pruning as a direct
substitute for reporting the number of LP_DEAD items removed in a
function that deals with the second pass over the heap.  But that
doesn't work at all -- they're two different things.

To fix, start tracking the total number of LP_DEAD items encountered
during pruning, and use that in the report instead.  A single pass
VACUUM will always vacuum away whatever LP_DEAD items a heap page has
immediately after it is pruned, so the total number of LP_DEAD items
encountered during pruning equals the total number vacuumed-away.
(They are _not_ equal in the INDEX_CLEANUP=off case, but that's okay
because skipping index vacuuming is now a totally orthogonal concept to
one-pass VACUUM.)

Also stop reporting the count of LP_UNUSED items in VACUUM VERBOSE
output.  This makes the output of VACUUM VERBOSE more consistent with
log_autovacuum's output (because it never showed information about
LP_UNUSED items).  VACUUM VERBOSE reported LP_UNUSED items left behind
by the last VACUUM, and LP_UNUSED items created via pruning HOT chains
during the current VACUUM (it never included LP_UNUSED items left behind
by the current VACUUM's second pass over the heap).  This makes it
useless as an indicator of line pointer bloat, which must have been the
original intention. (Like the first VACUUM VERBOSE issue, this issue was
arguably an oversight in commit 282d2a03, which added the heap-only
tuple optimization.)

Finally, stop reporting empty_pages in VACUUM VERBOSE output, and start
reporting pages_removed instead.  This also makes the output of VACUUM
VERBOSE more consistent with log_autovacuum's output (which does not
show empty_pages, but does show pages_removed).  An empty page isn't
meaningfully different to a page that is almost empty, or a page that is
empty but for only a small number of remaining LP_UNUSED items.

Andrew Gierth reported that it's possible to crash the backend if no
pg_attrdef record is found to match an attribute that has atthasdef set.
AttrDefaultFetch warns about this situation, but then leaves behind
a relation tupdesc that has null "adbin" pointer(s), which most places
don't guard against.

We considered promoting the warning to an error, but throwing errors
during relcache load is pretty drastic: it effectively locks one out
of using the relation at all.  What seems better is to leave the
load-time behavior as a warning, but then throw an error in any code
path that wants to use a default and can't find it.  This confines
the error to a subset of INSERT/UPDATE operations on the table, and
in particular will at least allow a pg_dump to succeed.

Also, we should fix AttrDefaultFetch to not leave any null pointers
in the tupdesc, because that just creates an untested bug hazard.

While at it, apply the same philosophy of "warn at load, throw error
only upon use of the known-missing info" to CHECK constraints.
CheckConstraintFetch is very nearly the same logic as AttrDefaultFetch,
but for reasons lost in the mists of time, it was throwing ERROR for
the same cases that AttrDefaultFetch treats as WARNING.  Make the two
functions more nearly alike.

In passing, get rid of potentially-O(N^2) loops in equalTupleDesc
by making AttrDefaultFetch sort the entries after fetching them,
so that equalTupleDesc can assume that entries in two equal tupdescs
must be in matching order.  (CheckConstraintFetch already was sorting
CHECK constraints, but equalTupleDesc hadn't been told about it.)

There's some argument for back-patching this, but with such a small
number of field reports, I'm content to fix it in HEAD.

Previously if hot standby was enabled, archive recovery exited with
an error when it found WAL generated with wal_level=minimal.
But if hot standby was disabled, it just reported a warning and
continued in that case. Which could lead to data loss or errors
during normal operation. A warning was emitted, but users could
easily miss that and not notice this serious situation until
they encountered the actual errors.

To improve this situation, this commit changes archive recovery
so that it exits with FATAL error when it finds WAL generated with
wal_level=minimal whatever the setting of hot standby. This enables
users to notice the serious situation soon.

The FATAL error is thrown if archive recovery starts from a base
backup taken before wal_level is changed to minimal. When archive
recovery exits with the error, if users have a base backup taken
after setting wal_level to higher than minimal, they can recover
the database by starting archive recovery from that newer backup.
But note that if such backup doesn't exist, there is no easy way to
complete archive recovery, which may make the database server
unstartable and users may lose whole database. The commit adds
the note about this risk into the document.

Even in the case of unstartable database server, previously by just
disabling hot standby users could avoid the error during archive
recovery, forcibly start up the server and salvage data from it.
But note that this commit makes this procedure unavailable at all.

The previous implementation of EXTRACT mapped internally to
date_part(), which returned type double precision (since it was
implemented long before the numeric type existed).  This can lead to
imprecise output in some cases, so returning numeric would be
preferrable.  Changing the return type of an existing function is a
bit risky, so instead we do the following:  We implement a new set of
functions, which are now called "extract", in parallel to the existing
date_part functions.  They work the same way internally but use
numeric instead of float8.  The EXTRACT construct is now mapped by the
parser to these new extract functions.  That way, dumps of views
etc. from old versions (which would use date_part) continue to work
unchanged, but new uses will map to the new extract functions.

Additionally, the reverse compilation of EXTRACT now reproduces the
original syntax, using the new mechanism introduced in
40c24bfe.

The following minor changes of behavior result from the new
implementation:

- The column name from an isolated EXTRACT call is now "extract"
  instead of "date_part".

- Extract from date now rejects inappropriate field names such as
  HOUR.  It was previously mapped internally to extract from
  timestamp, so it would silently accept everything appropriate for
  timestamp.

- Return values when extracting fields with possibly fractional
  values, such as second and epoch, now have the full scale that the
  value has internally (so, for example, '1.000000' instead of just
  '1').

Commit 3e98c0ba added pg_backend_memory_contexts view to display
the memory contexts of the backend process. However its target process
is limited to the backend that is accessing to the view. So this is
not so convenient when investigating the local memory bloat of other
backend process. To improve this situation, this commit adds
pg_log_backend_memory_contexts() function that requests to log
the memory contexts of the specified backend process.

This information can be also collected by calling
MemoryContextStats(TopMemoryContext) via a debugger. But
this technique cannot be used in some environments because no debugger
is available there. So, pg_log_backend_memory_contexts() allows us to
see the memory contexts of specified backend more easily.

Only superusers are allowed to request to log the memory contexts
because allowing any users to issue this request at an unbounded rate
would cause lots of log messages and which can lead to denial of service.

On receipt of the request, at the next CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS(),
the target backend logs its memory contexts at LOG_SERVER_ONLY level,
so that these memory contexts will appear in the server log but not
be sent to the client. It logs one message per memory context.
Because if it buffers all memory contexts into StringInfo to log them
as one message, which may require the buffer to be enlarged very much
and lead to OOM error since there can be a large number of memory
contexts in a backend.

When a backend process is consuming huge memory, logging all its
memory contexts might overrun available disk space. To prevent this,
now this patch limits the number of child contexts to log per parent
to 100. As with MemoryContextStats(), it supposes that practical cases
where the log gets long will typically be huge numbers of siblings
under the same parent context; while the additional debugging value
from seeing details about individual siblings beyond 100 will not be large.

There was another proposed patch to add the function to return
the memory contexts of specified backend as the result sets,
instead of logging them, in the discussion. However that patch is
not included in this commit because it had several issues to address.

Instead of using multiple parameters in parse_ouput_parameters function
signature, use the struct PGOutputData that encapsulates all pgoutput
options. It will be useful for future work where we need to add other
options in pgoutput.

This type of failure is similar to what has been fixed in c757a3da,
where an authentication failure combined with psql pushing a command
down its communication pipe causes a test failure.  This routine is
designed to fail, so sending a query has little sense anyway.

from Tom Lane.

Commit 49f49def took entirely the wrong approach to fixing this issue.
Just allocate a local buffer access strategy in each individual worker
instead of trying to propagate state.  This state was never propagated
by parallel VACUUM in the first place.

It looks like the only reason that this worked following commit 40d964ec
was that it involved static global variables, which are initialized to 0
per the C standard.

A more comprehensive fix may be necessary, even on HEAD.  This fix
should at least get the buildfarm green once again.

Thanks once again to Thomas Munro for continued off-list assistance with
the issue.

Not much to say here: does what it says on the tin.
We steal a previously-always-zero bit from the nextOffset
field of leaf index tuples in order to track whether there
is a nulls bitmap.  Otherwise it works about like included
columns in other index types.

Parallel VACUUM relied on global variable state from the leader process
being propagated to workers on fork().  Commit b4af70cb removed most
uses of global variables inside vacuumlazy.c, but did not account for
the buffer access strategy state.

To fix, propagate the state through shared memory instead.

Many thanks to Thomas Munro for off-list assistance with this issue.

Reorganize the state struct used by VACUUM -- group related items
together to make it easier to understand.  Also stop relying on stack
variables inside lazy_scan_heap() -- move those into the state struct
instead.  Doing things this way simplifies large groups of related
functions whose function signatures had a lot of unnecessary redundancy.

Switch over to using int64 for the struct fields used to count things
that are reported to the user via log_autovacuum and VACUUM VERBOSE
output.  We were using double, but that doesn't seem to have any
advantages.  Using int64 makes it possible to add assertions that verify
that the first pass over the heap (pruning) encounters precisely the
same number of LP_DEAD items that get deleted from indexes later on, in
the second pass over the heap.  These assertions will be added in later
commits.

Finally, adjust the signatures of functions with IndexBulkDeleteResult
pointer arguments in cases where there was ambiguity about whether or
not the argument relates to a single index or all indexes.  Functions
now use the idiom that both ambulkdelete() and amvacuumcleanup() have
always used (where appropriate): accept a mutable IndexBulkDeleteResult
pointer argument, and return a result IndexBulkDeleteResult pointer to
caller.

A commonly requested use-case is to have a role who can run an
unfettered pg_dump without having to explicitly GRANT that user access
to all tables, schemas, et al, without that role being a superuser.
This address that by adding a "pg_read_all_data" role which implicitly
gives any member of this role SELECT rights on all tables, views and
sequences, and USAGE rights on all schemas.

As there may be cases where it's also useful to have a role who has
write access to all objects, pg_write_all_data is also introduced and
gives users implicit INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE rights on all tables,
views and sequences.

These roles can not be logged into directly but instead should be
GRANT'd to a role which is able to log in.  As noted in the
documentation, if RLS is being used then an administrator may (or may
not) wish to set BYPASSRLS on the login role which these predefined
roles are GRANT'd to.

Maxim Orlov reported that the shutdown of standby server could result in
the following assertion failure. The cause of this issue was that,
when the shutdown caused the startup process to exit, recovery-time
transaction tracking was not shut down even if it's already initialized,
and some locks the tracked transactions were holding could not be released.
At this situation, if other process was invoked and the PGPROC entry that
the startup process used was assigned to it, it found such unreleased locks
and caused the assertion failure, during the initialization of it.

    TRAP: FailedAssertion("SHMQueueEmpty(&(MyProc->myProcLocks[i]))"

This commit fixes this issue by making the startup process shut down
transaction tracking and release all locks, at the exit of it.

Back-patch to all supported branches.

Move the planner-control flags up so that there is more room for parse
options.  Some pending patches need some room there, so do this
renumbering separately so that there is less potential for conflicts.
