transformTableLikeClause believed that it could process extended
statistics immediately because "the representation of CreateStatsStmt
doesn't depend on column numbers". That was true when extended stats
were first introduced, but it was falsified by the addition of
extended stats on expressions: the parsed expression tree is fed
forward by the LIKE option, and that will contain Vars. So if the
new table doesn't have attnums identical to the old one's (typically
because there are some dropped columns in the old one), that doesn't
work. The CREATE goes through, but it emits invalid statistics
objects that will cause problems later.
Fortunately, we already have logic that can adapt expression trees
to the possibly-new column numbering. To use it, we have to delay
processing of CREATE_TABLE_LIKE_STATISTICS into expandTableLikeClause,
just as for other LIKE options that involve expressions.
Per bug #18468 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v14 where
extended statistics on expressions were added.

When changing the data type of a column of a partitioned table, craft
the ALTER SEQUENCE command only once. Partitions do not have identity
sequences of their own and thus do not need a ALTER SEQUENCE command
for each partition.
Fix getIdentitySequence() to fetch the identity sequence associated
with the top-level partitioned table when a Relation of a partition is
passed to it. While doing so, translate the attribute number of the
partition into the attribute number of the partitioned table.

Such constraints are semantically useless and only bring weird cases
along, so reject them.
As a side effect, we can no longer have "throwaway" constraints in
pg_dump for primary keys in partitioned tables, but since they don't
serve any useful purpose, we can just omit them.
Maybe this should be done for all types of constraints, but it's just
not-null ones that acquired this "ability" in the 17 timeframe, so for
the moment I'm not changing anything else.

This new DDL command splits a single partition into several parititions.
Just like ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS ... command, new patitions are
created using createPartitionTable() function with parent partition as the

This commit comprises quite naive implementation which works in single process
and holds the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE LOCK on the parent table during all the

can't be recommended for large partitioned tables under a high load. However,
this implementation come in handy in certain cases even as is.
Also, it could be used as a foundation for future implementations with lesser

A child table can specify a compression or storage method different
from its parents. This was previously an error. (But this was
inconsistently enforced because for example the settings could be
changed later using ALTER TABLE.) This now also allows an explicit
override if multiple parents have different compression or storage
settings, which was previously an error that could not be overridden.
The compression and storage properties remains unchanged in a child
inheriting from parent(s) after its creation, i.e., when using ALTER
TABLE ... INHERIT. (This is not changed.)
Before this change, the error detail would mention the first pair of
conflicting parent compression or storage methods. But with this
change it waits till the child specification is considered by which
time we may have encountered many such conflicting pairs. Hence the
error detail after this change does not include the conflicting
compression/storage methods. Those can be obtained from parent
definitions if necessary. The code to maintain list of all
conflicting methods or even the first conflicting pair does not seem
worth the convenience it offers. This change is inline with what we
do with conflicting default values.
Before this commit, the specified storage method could be stored in
ColumnDef::storage (CREATE TABLE ... LIKE) or ColumnDef::storage_name
(CREATE TABLE ...). This caused the MergeChildAttribute() and
MergeInheritedAttribute() to ignore a storage method specified in the
child definition since it looked only at ColumnDef::storage. This
commit removes ColumnDef::storage and instead uses
ColumnDef::storage_name to save any storage method specification. This
is similar to how compression method specification is handled.

Fix for 344d62fb9a9: That commit introduced unlogged sequences and
made it so that identity/serial sequences automatically get the
persistence level of their owning table. But this works only for
CREATE TABLE and not for ALTER TABLE / ADD COLUMN. The latter would
always create the sequence as logged (default), independent of the
persistence setting of the table. This is fixed here.

Note: I didn't push the "not found" error message into the new
function, even though all existing callers would be able to make use
of it. Using the existing error handling as-is would probably require
exposing the Relation type via tupdesc.h, which doesn't seem
desirable. (Or even if we changed it to just report the OID, it would
inject the concept of a relation containing the tuple descriptor into
tupdesc.h, which might be a layering violation. Perhaps some further
improvements could be considered here separately.)

We now create contype='n' pg_constraint rows for not-null constraints.
We propagate these constraints to other tables during operations such as
adding inheritance relationships, creating and attaching partitions and
creating tables LIKE other tables. We also spawn not-null constraints
for inheritance child tables when their parents have primary keys.
These related constraints mostly follow the well-known rules of
conislocal and coninhcount that we have for CHECK constraints, with some
adaptations: for example, as opposed to CHECK constraints, we don't
match not-null ones by name when descending a hierarchy to alter it,
instead matching by column name that they apply to. This means we don't
require the constraint names to be identical across a hierarchy.
For now, we omit them for system catalogs. Maybe this is worth
reconsidering. We don't support NOT VALID nor DEFERRABLE clauses
either; these can be added as separate features later (this patch is
already large and complicated enough.)
psql shows these constraints in \d+.
pg_dump requires some ad-hoc hacks, particularly when dumping a primary
key. We now create one "throwaway" not-null constraint for each column
in the PK together with the CREATE TABLE command, and once the PK is
created, all those throwaway constraints are removed. This avoids
having to check each tuple for nullness when the dump restores the
primary key creation.
pg_upgrading from an older release requires a somewhat brittle procedure
to create a constraint state that matches what would be created if the
database were being created fresh in Postgres 17. I have tested all the
scenarios I could think of, and it works correctly as far as I can tell,
but I could have neglected weird cases.
This patch has been very long in the making. The first patch was
written by Bernd Helmle in 2010 to add a new pg_constraint.contype value
('n'), which I (Álvaro) then hijacked in 2011 and 2012, until that one
was killed by the realization that we ought to use contype='c' instead:
manufactured CHECK constraints. However, later SQL standard
development, as well as nonobvious emergent properties of that design
(mostly, failure to distinguish them from "normal" CHECK constraints as
well as the performance implication of having to test the CHECK
expression) led us to reconsider this choice, so now the current
implementation uses contype='n' again. During Postgres 16 this had
already been introduced by commit e056c557aef4, but there were some
problems mainly with the pg_upgrade procedure that couldn't be fixed in
reasonable time, so it was reverted.
In 2016 Vitaly Burovoy also worked on this feature[1] but found no
consensus for his proposed approach, which was claimed to be closer to
the letter of the standard, requiring an additional pg_attribute column
to track the OID of the not-null constraint for that column.

CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION with appended schema elements can lead to
crashes when comparing the schema name of the query with the schemas
used in the qualification of some clauses in the elements' queries.
The origin of the problem is that the transformation routine for the
elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query uses as new, expected, schema
name the one listed in CreateSchemaStmt itself. However, depending on
the query, CreateSchemaStmt.schemaname may be NULL, being computed
instead from the role specification of the query given by the
AUTHORIZATION clause, that could be either:
- A user name string, with the new schema name being set to the same
value as the role given.
- Guessed from CURRENT_ROLE, SESSION_ROLE or CURRENT_ROLE, with a new
schema name computed from the security context where CREATE SCHEMA is
running.
Regression tests are added for CREATE SCHEMA with some appended elements
(some of them with schema qualifications), covering also some role
specification patterns.
While on it, this simplifies the context structure used during the
transformation of the elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query by
removing the fields for the role specification and the role type. They
were not used, and for the role specification this could be confusing as
the schema name may by extracted from that at the beginning of
CreateSchemaCommand().
This issue exists for a long time, so backpatch down to all the versions
supported.

When calling generateSerialExtraStmts(), we would pass in the

modify the referenced List to remove elements from it, but doing so is
invalid without assigning the list back to all variables that point to it.
In the particular reported problem case, the List became empty, in which
cases it became NIL, but the passed in constraint->options didn't get to
find out about that and was left pointing to free'd memory.
To fix this, just perform a list_copy() inside generateSerialExtraStmts().
We could just do a list_copy() just before we perform the delete from the
list, however, that seems less robust. Let's make sure the generated
CreateSeqStmt gets a completely different copy of the list to be safe.

In both partitioning and traditional inheritance, require child
columns to be GENERATED if and only if their parent(s) are.
Formerly we allowed the case of an inherited column being
GENERATED when its parent isn't, but that results in inconsistent
behavior: the column can be directly updated through an UPDATE
on the parent table, leading to it containing a user-supplied
value that might not match the generation expression. This also
fixes an oversight that we enforced partition-key-columns-can't-
be-GENERATED against parent tables, but not against child tables
that were dynamically attached to them.
Also, remove the restriction that the child's generation expression
be equivalent to the parent's. In the wake of commit 3f7836ff6,
there doesn't seem to be any reason that we need that restriction,
since generation expressions are always computed per-table anyway.
By removing this, we can also allow a child to merge multiple
inheritance parents with inconsistent generation expressions, by
overriding them with its own expression, much as we've long allowed
for DEFAULT expressions.
Since we're rejecting a case that we used to accept, this doesn't
seem like a back-patchable change. Given the lack of field
complaints about the inconsistent behavior, it's likely that no
one is doing this anyway, but we won't change it in minor releases.

Currently, information about the permissions to be checked on relations
mentioned in a query is stored in their range table entries. So the
executor must scan the entire range table looking for relations that
need to have permissions checked. This can make the permission checking
part of the executor initialization needlessly expensive when many
inheritance children are present in the range range. While the
permissions need not be checked on the individual child relations, the
executor still must visit every range table entry to filter them out.
This commit moves the permission checking information out of the range
table entries into a new plan node called RTEPermissionInfo. Every
top-level (inheritance "root") RTE_RELATION entry in the range table
gets one and a list of those is maintained alongside the range table.
This new list is initialized by the parser when initializing the range
table. The rewriter can add more entries to it as rules/views are
expanded. Finally, the planner combines the lists of the individual
subqueries into one flat list that is passed to the executor for
checking.
To make it quick to find the RTEPermissionInfo entry belonging to a
given relation, RangeTblEntry gets a new Index field 'perminfoindex'
that stores the corresponding RTEPermissionInfo's index in the query's
list of the latter.
ExecutorCheckPerms_hook has gained another List * argument; the
signature is now:
typedef bool (*ExecutorCheckPerms_hook_type) (List *rangeTable,
List *rtePermInfos,
bool ereport_on_violation);
The first argument is no longer used by any in-core uses of the hook,
but we leave it in place because there may be other implementations that
do. Implementations should likely scan the rtePermInfos list to
determine which operations to allow or deny.

Previously, if an extension script did CREATE OR REPLACE and there was
an existing object not belonging to the extension, it would overwrite
the object and adopt it into the extension. This is problematic, first
because the overwrite is probably unintentional, and second because we
didn't change the object's ownership. Thus a hostile user could create
an object in advance of an expected CREATE EXTENSION command, and would
then have ownership rights on an extension object, which could be
modified for trojan-horse-type attacks.
Hence, forbid CREATE OR REPLACE of an existing object unless it already
belongs to the extension. (Note that we've always forbidden replacing
an object that belongs to some other extension; only the behavior for
previously-free-standing objects changes here.)
For the same reason, also fail CREATE IF NOT EXISTS when there is
an existing object that doesn't belong to the extension.

based on those values. Using the same name for more than one thing is
confusing.
Replace RelFileNode with RelFileNumber when we're talking about just the
single number, i.e. (1) from above, and with RelFileLocator when we're
talking about all the things that are needed to locate a relation's files
on disk, i.e. (2) from above. In the places where we refer to (3) as
a relfilenode, instead refer to "relation storage".
Since there is a ton of SQL code in the world that knows about
pg_class.relfilenode, don't change the name of that column, or of other
SQL-facing things that derive their name from it.
On the other hand, do adjust closely-related internal terminology. For
example, the structure member names dbNode and spcNode appear to be
derived from the fact that the structure itself was called RelFileNode,
so change those to dbOid and spcOid. Likewise, various variables with
names like rnode and relnode get renamed appropriately, according to
how they're being used in context.
Hopefully, this is clearer than before. It is also preparation for
future patches that intend to widen the relfilenumber fields from its
current width of 32 bits. Variables that store a relfilenumber are now
declared as type RelFileNumber rather than type Oid; right now, these
are the same, but that can now more easily be changed.

There were many calls to construct_array() and deconstruct_array() for
built-in types, for example, when dealing with system catalog columns.
These all hardcoded the type attributes necessary to pass to these
functions.
To simplify this a bit, add construct_array_builtin(),
deconstruct_array_builtin() as wrappers that centralize this hardcoded
knowledge. This simplifies many call sites and reduces the amount of
hardcoded stuff that is spread around.

Don't try to look at the attidentity field of system attributes,
because they're not there in the TupleDescAttr array. Sometimes
this is harmless because we accidentally pick up a zero, but
otherwise we'll report "no owned sequence found" from an attempt
to alter a system attribute. (It seems possible that a SIGSEGV
could occur, too, though I've not seen it in testing.)
It's not in this function's charter to complain that you can't
alter a system column, so instead just hard-wire an assumption
that system attributes aren't identities. I didn't bother with
a regression test because the appearance of the bug is very
erratic.
Per bug #17465 from Roman Zharkov. Back-patch to all supported
branches. (There's not actually a live bug before v12, because
before that get_attidentity() did the right thing anyway.
But for consistency I changed the test in the older branches too.)

Add support for unlogged sequences. Unlike for unlogged tables, this
is not a performance feature. It allows sequences associated with
unlogged tables to be excluded from replication.
A new subcommand ALTER SEQUENCE ... SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED is added.
An identity/serial sequence now automatically gets and follows the
persistence level (logged/unlogged) of its owning table. (The
sequences owned by temporary tables were already temporary through the
separate mechanism in RangeVarAdjustRelationPersistence().) But you
can still change the persistence of an owned sequence separately.
Also, pg_dump and pg_upgrade preserve the persistence of existing
sequences.

There are three parallel ways to call parse/analyze: with fixed
parameters, with variable parameters, and by supplying your own parser
callback. Some of the involved functions were confusingly named and
made this API structure more confusing. This patch renames some
functions to make this clearer:
parse_analyze() -> parse_analyze_fixedparams()
pg_analyze_and_rewrite() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_fixedparams()
(Otherwise one might think this variant doesn't accept parameters, but
in fact all three ways accept parameters.)
pg_analyze_and_rewrite_params() -> pg_analyze_and_rewrite_withcb()
(Before, and also when considering pg_analyze_and_rewrite(), one might
think this is the only way to pass parameters. Moreover, the parser
callback doesn't necessarily need to parse only parameters, it's just
one of the things it could do.)
parse_fixed_parameters() -> setup_parse_fixed_parameters()
parse_variable_parameters() -> setup_parse_variable_parameters()
(These functions don't actually do any parsing, they just set up
callbacks to use during parsing later.)
This patch also adds some const decorations to the fixed-parameters
API, so the distinction from the variable-parameters API is more
clear.

The SQL standard has been ambiguous about whether null values in
unique constraints should be considered equal or not. Different
implementations have different behaviors. In the SQL:202x draft, this
has been formalized by making this implementation-defined and adding
an option on unique constraint definitions UNIQUE [ NULLS [NOT]
DISTINCT ] to choose a behavior explicitly.
This patch adds this option to PostgreSQL. The default behavior
remains UNIQUE NULLS DISTINCT. Making this happen in the btree code
is pretty easy; most of the patch is just to carry the flag around to
all the places that need it.
The CREATE UNIQUE INDEX syntax extension is not from the standard,
it's my own invention.
I named all the internal flags, catalog columns, etc. in the negative
("nulls not distinct") so that the default PostgreSQL behavior is the
default if the flag is false.

The API spec for lookup_rowtype_tupdesc previously said you could use
either ReleaseTupleDesc or DecrTupleDescRefCount. However, the latter
choice means the caller must be certain that the returned tupdesc is
refcounted. I don't recall right now whether that was always true
when this spec was written, but it's certainly not always true since
we introduced shared record typcaches for parallel workers. That means
that callers using DecrTupleDescRefCount are dependent on typcache
behavior details that they probably shouldn't be. Hence, change the API
spec to say that you must call ReleaseTupleDesc, and fix the half-dozen
callers that weren't.
AFAICT this is just future-proofing, there's no live bug here.
So no back-patch.
Per gripe from Chapman Flack.

The code inconsistently used "statistic object" or "statistics" where
the correct term, as discussed, is actually "statistics object". This
improves the state of the code to be more consistent.
While on it, fix an incorrect error message introduced in a4d75c8. This
error should never happen, as the code states, but it would be
misleading.

Backpatch-through: 14
The Value node struct is a weird construct. It is its own node type,
but most of the time, it actually has a node type of Integer, Float,
String, or BitString. As a consequence, the struct name and the node
type don't match most of the time, and so it has to be treated
specially a lot. There doesn't seem to be any value in the special
construct. There is very little code that wants to accept all Value
variants but nothing else (and even if it did, this doesn't provide
any convenient way to check it), and most code wants either just one
particular node type (usually String), or it accepts a broader set of
node types besides just Value.
This change removes the Value struct and node type and replaces them
by separate Integer, Float, String, and BitString node types that are
proper node types and structs of their own and behave mostly like
normal node types.
Also, this removes the T_Null node tag, which was previously also a
possible variant of Value but wasn't actually used outside of the
Value contained in A_Const. Replace that by an isnull field in
A_Const.

There are two identical error messages about valid value of modulus for
hash partition, in PostgreSQL source code. Commit 0e1275fb07 improved
only one of them so that ambiguous word "positive" was avoided there,
and forgot to improve the other. This commit improves the other.
Which would reduce translator burden.
Back-pach to v11 where the error message exists.
