Back-patch to v13, which introduced the test code in question.

The test added by 595b9cba forgot that on Windows it is necessary to set
up pg_hba.conf (see PostgresNode::set_replication_conf) with a specific
entry or base backups fail.  Any node that requires to support
replication just needs to pass down allows_streaming at initialization.
This updates the test to do so.  Simplify things a bit while on it.

Per buildfarm member fairywren.  Any Windows hosts running this test
would have failed, and I have reproduced the problem as well.

Backpatch-through: 10

The TAP tests of kerberos rely on the logs generated by the backend to
check various connection scenarios.  In order to make sure that a given
test does not overlap with the log contents generated by a previous
test, the test suite relied on a logic with the logging collector and a
rotation of the log files to ensure the uniqueness of the log generated
with a wait phase.

Parsing the log contents for expected patterns is a problem that has
been solved in a simpler way by PostgresNode::issues_sql_like() where
the log file is truncated before checking for the contents generated,
with the backend sending its output to a log file given by pg_ctl
instead.  This commit switches the kerberos test suite to use such a
method, removing any wait phase and simplifying the whole logic,
resulting in less code.  If a failure happens in the tests, the contents
of the logs are still showed to the user at the moment of the failure
thanks to like(), so this has no impact on debugging capabilities.

I have bumped into this issue while reviewing a different patch set
aiming at extending the kerberos test suite to check for multiple
log patterns instead of one now.

Any transactions found as still prepared by a checkpoint have their
state data read from the WAL records generated by PREPARE TRANSACTION
before being moved into their new location within pg_twophase/.  While
reading such records, the WAL reader uses the callback
read_local_xlog_page() to read a page, that is shared across various
parts of the system.  This callback, since 1148e22a, has introduced an
update of ThisTimeLineID when reading a record while in recovery, which
is potentially helpful in the context of cascading WAL senders.

This update of ThisTimeLineID interacts badly with the checkpointer if a
promotion happens while some 2PC data is read from its record, as, by
changing ThisTimeLineID, any follow-up WAL records would be written to
an timeline older than the promoted one.  This results in consistency
issues.  For instance, a subsequent server restart would cause a failure
in finding a valid checkpoint record, resulting in a PANIC, for
instance.

This commit changes the code reading the 2PC data to reset the timeline
once the 2PC record has been read, to prevent messing up with the static
state of the checkpointer.  It would be tempting to do the same thing
directly in read_local_xlog_page().  However, based on the discussion
that has led to 1148e22a, users may rely on the updates of
ThisTimeLineID when a WAL record page is read in recovery, so changing
this callback could break some cases that are working currently.

A TAP test reproducing the issue is added, relying on a PITR to
precisely trigger a promotion with a prepared transaction still
tracked.

It's not okay to scribble directly on a syscache entry.
Nor to continue accessing said entry after releasing it.

Also get rid of not-used local variables.

Per valgrind testing.

Maintain a simple array of metadata about pages that were deleted during
nbtree VACUUM's current btvacuumscan() call.  Use this metadata at the
end of btvacuumscan() to attempt to place newly deleted pages in the FSM
without further delay.  It might not yet be safe to place any of the
pages in the FSM by then (they may not be deemed recyclable), but we
have little to lose and plenty to gain by trying.  In practice there is
a very good chance that this will work out when vacuuming larger
indexes, where scanning the index naturally takes quite a while.

This commit doesn't change the page recycling invariants; it merely
improves the efficiency of page recycling within the confines of the
existing design.  Recycle safety is a part of nbtree's implementation of
what Lanin & Shasha call "the drain technique".  The design happens to
use transaction IDs (they're stored in deleted pages), but that in
itself doesn't align the cutoff for recycle safety to any of the
XID-based cutoffs used by VACUUM (e.g., OldestXmin).  All that matters
is whether or not _other_ backends might be able to observe various
inconsistencies in the tree structure (that they cannot just detect and
recover from by moving right).  Recycle safety is purely a question of
maintaining the consistency (or the apparent consistency) of a physical
data structure.

Note that running a simple serial test case involving a large range
DELETE followed by a VACUUM VERBOSE will probably show that any newly
deleted nbtree pages are not yet reusable/recyclable.  This is expected
in the absence of even one concurrent XID assignment.  It is an old
implementation restriction.  In practice it's unlikely to be the thing
that makes recycling remain unsafe, at least with larger indexes, where
recycling newly deleted pages during the same VACUUM actually matters.

An important high-level goal of this commit (as well as related recent
commits e5d8a999 and 9f3665fb) is to make expensive deferred cleanup
operations in index AMs rare in general.  If index vacuuming frequently
depends on the next VACUUM operation finishing off work that the current
operation started, then the general behavior of index vacuuming is hard
to predict.  This is relevant to ongoing work that adds a vacuumlazy.c
mechanism to skip index vacuuming in certain cases.  Anything that makes
the real world behavior of index vacuuming simpler and more linear will
also make top-down modeling in vacuumlazy.c more robust.

It's not okay to just shove the pkg_config results right into our
build flags, for a couple different reasons:

* This fails to maintain the separation between CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS,
as well as that between LDFLAGS and LIBS.  (The CPPFLAGS angle is,
I believe, the reason for warning messages reported when building
with MacPorts' liblz4.)

* If pkg_config emits anything other than -I/-D/-L/-l switches,
it's highly unlikely that we want to absorb those.  That'd be more
likely to break the build than do anything helpful.  (Even the -D
case is questionable; but we're doing that for libxml2, so I kept it.)

Also, it's not okay to skip doing an AC_CHECK_LIB probe, as
evidenced by recent build failure on topminnow; that should
have been caught at configure time.

Model fixes for this on configure's libxml2 support.

It appears that somebody overlooked an autoheader run, too.

When compressing the BRIN summary, we can't simply use the compression
method from the indexed attribute.  The summary may use a different data
type, e.g. fixed-length attribute may have varlena summary, leading to
compression failures.  For the built-in BRIN opclasses this happens to
work, because the summary uses the same data type as the attribute.

When the data types match, we can inherit use the compression method
specified for the attribute (it's copied into the index descriptor).
Otherwise we don't have much choice and have to use the default one.

The approach used in commit bbe0a81d would've been disastrous for
portability of dumps.  Instead handle non-default compression options
in separate ALTER TABLE commands.  This reduces chatter for the
common case where most columns are compressed the same way, and it
makes it possible to restore the dump to a server that lacks any
knowledge of per-attribute compression options (so long as you're
willing to ignore syntax errors from the ALTER TABLE commands).

There's a whole lot left to do to mop up after bbe0a81d, but

We do want the effect of resetting the GUC to its compiled-in

that, so add code to free any existing subsidiary data beforehand.

The interaction between can_skip_gucvar, SerializeGUCState, and

Since commit 2ce439f3 we have opened every file in the data directory
and called fsync() at the start of crash recovery.  This can be very
slow if there are many files, leading to field complaints of systems
taking minutes or even hours to begin crash recovery.

Provide an alternative method, for Linux only, where we call syncfs() on
every possibly different filesystem under the data directory.  This is
equivalent, but avoids faulting in potentially many inodes from
potentially slow storage.

The new mode comes with some caveats, described in the documentation, so
the default value for the new setting is "fsync", preserving the older
behavior.

Introduced by commit bbe0a81d.

Per buildfarm member prion.

There is now a per-column COMPRESSION option which can be set to pglz
(the default, and the only option in up until now) or lz4. Or, if you
like, you can set the new default_toast_compression GUC to lz4, and
then that will be the default for new table columns for which no value
is specified. We don't have lz4 support in the PostgreSQL code, so
to use lz4 compression, PostgreSQL must be built --with-lz4.

In general, TOAST compression means compression of individual column
values, not the whole tuple, and those values can either be compressed
inline within the tuple or compressed and then stored externally in
the TOAST table, so those properties also apply to this feature.

Prior to this commit, a TOAST pointer has two unused bits as part of
the va_extsize field, and a compessed datum has two unused bits as
part of the va_rawsize field. These bits are unused because the length
of a varlena is limited to 1GB; we now use them to indicate the
compression type that was used. This means we only have bit space for
2 more built-in compresison types, but we could work around that
problem, if necessary, by introducing a new vartag_external value for
any further types we end up wanting to add. Hopefully, it won't be
too important to offer a wide selection of algorithms here, since
each one we add not only takes more coding but also adds a build
dependency for every packager. Nevertheless, it seems worth doing
at least this much, because LZ4 gets better compression than PGLZ
with less CPU usage.

It's possible for LZ4-compressed datums to leak into composite type
values stored on disk, just as it is for PGLZ. It's also possible for
LZ4-compressed attributes to be copied into a different table via SQL
commands such as CREATE TABLE AS or INSERT .. SELECT.  It would be
expensive to force such values to be decompressed, so PostgreSQL has
never done so. For the same reasons, we also don't force recompression
of already-compressed values even if the target table prefers a
different compression method than was used for the source data.  These
architectural decisions are perhaps arguable but revisiting them is
well beyond the scope of what seemed possible to do as part of this
project.  However, it's relatively cheap to recompress as part of
VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER, so this commit adjusts those commands to do
so, if the configured compression method of the table happens not to
match what was used for some column value stored therein.

Dilip Kumar. The original patches on which this work was based were
written by Ildus Kurbangaliev, and those were patches were based on
even earlier work by Nikita Glukhov, but the design has since changed
very substantially, since allow a potentially large number of
compression methods that could be added and dropped on a running
system proved too problematic given some of the architectural issues
mentioned above; the choice of which specific compression method to
add first is now different; and a lot of the code has been heavily
refactored.  More recently, Justin Przyby helped quite a bit with
testing and reviewing and this version also includes some code
contributions from him. Other design input and review from Tomas
Vondra, Álvaro Herrera, Andres Freund, Oleg Bartunov, Alexander

The TAP test was written so that it was not waiting for the correct SQL
command, but for output from the preceding one.  This resulted in race
conditions, allowing the commands to run in a different order, not block

where possible, so that observing the output guarantees the data was
inserted properly, and waiting for a lock to appear in pg_locks.

The test included in cd91de0d had two simple flaws.

Firstly, the number of rows was low and on some platforms (e.g. 32-bit)
the sort did not require on-disk sort, so on those machines it was not
testing the automatic removal.  The test was however failing, because
without any temporary files the base/pgsql_tmp directory was not even
created.  Fixed by increasing the rowcount to 5000, which should be high
engough on any platform.

Secondly, the test used a simple sleep to wait for the temporary file to
be created.  This is obviously problematic, because on slow machines (or
with valgrind, CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS etc.) it may take a while to create
the temporary file.  But we also want the tests run reasonably fast.
Fixed by instead relying on a UNIQUE constraint, blocking the query that
created the temporary file.

After a crash of a backend using temporary files, the files used to be

While looking at Robert Foggia's report, I noticed a passel of
other issues in the same area:

* The scheme for backslash-quoting newlines in pathnames is just
wrong; it will misbehave if the last ordinary character in a pathname
is a backslash.  I'm not sure why we're bothering to allow newlines
in tablespace paths, but if we're going to do it we should do it
without introducing other problems.  Hence, backslashes themselves
have to be backslashed too.

* The author hadn't read the sscanf man page very carefully, because
this code would drop any leading whitespace from the path.  (I doubt
that a tablespace path with leading whitespace could happen in
practice; but if we're bothering to allow newlines in the path, it
sure seems like leading whitespace is little less implausible.)  Using
sscanf for the task of finding the first space is overkill anyway.

* While I'm not 100% sure what the rationale for escaping both \r and
\n is, if the idea is to allow Windows newlines in the file then this
code failed, because it'd throw an error if it saw \r followed by \n.

* There's no cross-check for an incomplete final line in the map file,
which would be a likely apparent symptom of the improper-escaping
bug.

On the generation end, aside from the escaping issue we have:

* If needtblspcmapfile is true then do_pg_start_backup will pass back
escaped strings in tablespaceinfo->path values, which no caller wants
or is prepared to deal with.  I'm not sure if there's a live bug from
that, but it looks like there might be (given the dubious assumption
that anyone actually has newlines in their tablespace paths).

* It's not being very paranoid about the possibility of random stuff
in the pg_tblspc directory.  IMO we should ignore anything without an
OID-like name.

The escaping rule change doesn't seem back-patchable: it'll require
doubling of backslashes in the tablespace_map file, which is basically
a basebackup format change.  The odds of that causing trouble are
considerably more than the odds of the existing bug causing trouble.
The rest of this seems somewhat unlikely to cause problems too,
so no back-patch.
