Add After=network-online.target Wants=network-online.target to the suggested unit file for starting a Postgres server. This delays startup until the network interfaces have been configured; without that, any attempt to bind to a specific IP address will fail. If listen_addresses is set to "localhost" or "*", it might be possible to get away with the less restrictive "network.target", but I don't think we need to get into such detail here. Per suggestion from Pablo Federico. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/166552157407.591805.10036014441784710940@wrigleys.postgresql.org

The postmaster is not supposed to do anything that depends fundamentally on shared memory contents, because that creates the risk that a backend crash that trashes shared memory will take the postmaster down with it, preventing automatic recovery. In commit 969d7cd4 I lost sight of this principle and coded AssignPostmasterChildSlot() in such a way that it could fail or even crash if the shared PMSignalState structure became corrupted. Remarkably, we've not seen field reports of such crashes; but I managed to induce one while testing the recent changes around palloc chunk headers. To fix, make a semi-duplicative state array inside the postmaster so that we need consult only local state while choosing a "child slot" for a new backend. Ensure that other postmaster-executed routines in pmsignal.c don't have critical dependencies on the shared state, either. Corruption of PMSignalState might now lead ReleasePostmasterChildSlot() to conclude that backend X failed, when actually backend Y was the one that trashed things. But that doesn't matter, because we'll force a cluster-wide reset regardless. Back-patch to all supported branches, since this is an old bug.

DEFAULT markers appearing in an INSERT on an updatable view could be mis-processed if they were in a multi-row VALUES clause. This would lead to strange errors such as "cache lookup failed for type NNNN", or in older branches even to crashes. The cause is that commit 41531e42 tried to re-use rewriteValuesRTE() to remove any SetToDefault nodes (that hadn't previously been replaced by the view's own default values) appearing in "product" queries, that is DO ALSO queries. That's fundamentally wrong because the DO ALSO queries might not even be INSERTs; and even if they are, their targetlists don't necessarily match the view's column list, so that almost all the logic in rewriteValuesRTE() is inapplicable. What we want is a narrow focus on replacing any such nodes with NULL constants. (That is, in this context we are interpreting the defaults as being strictly those of the view itself; and we already replaced any that aren't NULL.) We could add still more !force_nulls tests to further lobotomize rewriteValuesRTE(); but it seems cleaner to split out this case to a new function, restoring rewriteValuesRTE() to the charter it had before. Per bug #17633 from jiye_sw. Patch by me, but thanks to Richard Guo and Japin Li for initial investigation. Back-patch to all supported branches, as the previous fix was.

There are a number of bugs in this area. Two of them are fixed here, namely: 1. get_relation_idx_constraint_oid does not restrict the type of constraint that's returned, so with sufficient bad luck it can return the OID of a foreign key constraint. This has the effect that a primary key in a partition can end up as a child of a foreign key, which makes no sense (it needs to be the child of the equivalent primary key.) Change the API contract so that only index-backed constraints are returned, mimicking get_constraint_index(). 2. Both CloneFkReferenced and CloneFkReferencing clone a self-referencing foreign key, so the partition ends up with a duplicate foreign key. Change the former function to ignore such constraints. Add some tests to verify that things are better now. (However, these new tests show some additional misbehavior that will be fixed later -- namely that there's a constraint marked NOT VALID.) Backpatch to 12, where these constraints are possible at all. Author: Jehan-Guillaume de Rorthais <jgdr@dalibo.com> Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20220603154232.1715b14c@karst

Commit 34f581c3 intended to ensure that RelationGetBufferForTuple would acquire a visibility-map page pin in case the otherBuffer's all-visible bit had become set since we last had lock on that page. But I missed a case: when we're extending the relation, VM concerns were dealt with only in the relatively-less-likely case that we fail to conditionally lock the otherBuffer. I think I'd believed that we couldn't need to worry about it if the conditional lock succeeds, which is true for the target buffer; but the otherBuffer was unlocked for awhile so its bit might be set anyway. So we need to do the GetVisibilityMapPins dance, and then also recheck the page's free space, in both cases. Per report from Jaime Casanova. Back-patch to v12 as the previous patch was (although there's still no evidence that the bug is reachable pre-v14). Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/E1lWLjP-00006Y-Ml@gemulon.postgresql.org

This prevents marking the argument string for translation for gettext, and it also prevents the given string (which is already translated) from being translated at runtime. Also, mark the strings used as arguments to check_rolespec_name for translation. Backpatch all the way back as appropriate. None of this is caught by any tests (necessarily so), so I verified it manually.

Commit 25936fd4 adjusted things so that the "storeslot" we use for remapping trigger tuples would have adequate lifespan, but it neglected to consider the lifespan of the tuple descriptor that the slot depends on. It turns out that in at least some cases, the tupdesc we are passing is a refcounted tupdesc, and the refcount for the slot's reference can get assigned to a resource owner having different lifespan than the slot does. That leads to an error like "tupdesc reference 0x7fdef236a1b8 is not owned by resource owner SubTransaction". Worse, because of a second oversight in the same commit, we'd try to free the same tupdesc refcount again while cleaning up after that error, leading to recursive errors and an "ERRORDATA_STACK_SIZE exceeded" PANIC. To fix the initial problem, let's just make a non-refcounted copy of the tupdesc we're supposed to use. That seems likely to guard against additional problems, since there's no strong reason for this code to assume that what it's given is a refcounted tupdesc; in which case there's an independent hazard of the tupdesc having shorter lifespan than the slot does. (I didn't bother trying to free said copy, since it should go away anyway when the (sub) transaction context is cleaned up.) The other issue can be fixed by making the code added to AfterTriggerFreeQuery work like the rest of that function, ie be sure that it doesn't try to free the same slot twice in the event of recursive error cleanup. While here, also clean up minor stylistic issues in the test case added by 25936fd4: don't use "create or replace function", as any name collision within the tests is likely to have ill effects that that won't mask; and don't use function names as generic as trigger_function1, especially if you're not going to drop them at the end of the test stanza. Per bug #17607 from Thomas Mc Kay. Back-patch to v12, as the previous fix was. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17607-bd8ccc81226f7f80@postgresql.org

Mop up assorted set-but-not-used warnings in the back branches. This includes back-patching relevant fixes from commit 152c9f7b8 the rest of the way, but there are also several cases that did not appear in HEAD. Some of those we'd fixed in a retail way but not back-patched, and others I think just got rewritten out of existence during nearby refactoring. While here, also back-patch b1980f6d (PL/Tcl: Fix compiler warnings with Tcl 8.6) into 9.2, so that that branch compiles warning-free with modern Tcl. Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch all the way to 9.2.

There doesn't seem to be any good ABI-preserving way to silence clang 15's -Wdeprecated-non-prototype warnings about our tree-walk APIs. While we've fixed it properly in HEAD, the only way to not see hundreds of these in the back branches is to disable the warnings. We're not going to do anything about them, so we might as well disable them. I noticed that we also get some of these warnings about fmgr.c's support for V0 function call convention, in branches before v10 where we removed that. That's another area we aren't going to change, so turning off the warning seems fine for that too. Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch all the way to 9.2.

clang 15+ will issue a set-but-not-used warning when the only use of a variable is in autoincrements (e.g., "foo++;"). That's perfectly sensible, but it detects a few more cases that we'd not noticed before. Silence the warnings with our usual methods, such as PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, or in one case by actually removing a useless variable. One thing that we can't nicely get rid of is that with %pure-parser, Bison emits "yynerrs" as a local variable that falls foul of this warning. To silence those, I inserted "(void) yynerrs;" in the top-level productions of affected grammars. Per recently-established project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch to 9.5, which is as far as these patches go without issues. (A preliminary check shows that the prior branches need some other set-but-not-used cleanups too, so I'll leave them for another day.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/514615.1663615243@sss.pgh.pa.us

The API contract for planstate_tree_walker() callbacks is that they take a PlanState pointer and a context pointer. Somebody figured they could save a couple lines of code by ignoring that, and passing ExecShutdownNode itself as the walker even though it has but one argument. Somewhat remarkably, we've gotten away with that so far. However, it seems clear that the upcoming C2x standard means to forbid such cases, and compilers that actively break such code likely won't be far behind. So spend the extra few lines of code to do it honestly with a separate walker function. In HEAD, we might as well go further and remove ExecShutdownNode's useless return value. I left that as-is in back branches though, to forestall complaints about ABI breakage. Back-patch, with the thought that this might become of practical importance before our stable branches are all out of service. It doesn't seem to be fixing any live bug on any currently known platform, however. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/208054.1663534665@sss.pgh.pa.us

Treat arguments declared as RECORD as if that were a polymorphic type (which it is, sort of), in that we substitute the actual argument type while forming the function cache lookup key. This allows the specific composite type to be known in some cases where it was not before, at the cost of making a separate function cache entry for each named composite type that's passed to the function during a session. The particular symptom discussed in bug #17610 could be solved in other more-efficient ways, but only at the cost of considerable development work, and there are other cases where we'd still fail without this. Per bug #17610 from Martin Jurča. Back-patch to v11 where we first allowed plpgsql functions to be declared as taking type RECORD.

I happened to notice that libpq_pipeline's private implementation of pg_fatal lacked any pg_attribute_printf decoration. Indeed, adding that turned up a mistake! We'd likely never have noticed because the error exits in this code are unlikely to get hit, but still, it's a bug. We're so used to having the compiler check this stuff for us that a printf-like function without pg_attribute_printf is a land mine. I wonder if there is a way to detect such omissions.

The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot for the ForeignScan node. But in the case where the outer plan contains an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error. The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan.

This adds additional variants of palloc, pg_malloc, etc. that encapsulate common usage patterns and provide more type safety. Specifically, this adds palloc_object(), palloc_array(), and repalloc_array(), which take the type name of the object to be allocated as its first argument and cast the return as a pointer to that type. There are also palloc0_object() and palloc0_array() variants for initializing with zero, and pg_malloc_*() variants of all of the above. Inspired by the talloc library.

The primary fix here is to fix has_matching_range() so it does not reference ranges->values[-1] when nranges == 0. Similar problems existed in AssertCheckRanges() too. It does not look like any of these problems could lead to a crash as the array in question is at the end of the Ranges struct, and values[-1] is memory that belongs to other fields in the struct. However, let's get rid of these rather unsafe coding practices. In passing, I (David) adjusted some comments to try to make it more clear what some of the fields are for in the Ranges struct.

When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID. FreeBSD still does so, but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4 (random) UUID instead. That's not acceptable for our purposes: if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1. Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'. Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation is usable. It might be, depending on which OS version you're using, but we're not going to get into that kind of detail.

Improve documentation regarding the limitations of unique and primary key constraints on partitioned tables. The existing documentation didn't make it clear that the constraint columns had to be present in the partition key as bare columns. The reader could be led to believe that it was ok to include the constraint columns as part of a function call's parameters or as part of an expression. Additionally, the documentation didn't mention anything about the fact that we disallow unique and primary key constraints if the partition keys contain *any* function calls or expressions, regardless of if the constraint columns appear as columns elsewhere in the partition key. The confusion here was highlighted by a report on the general mailing list by James Vanns.
