Historically, MinGW environments lacked some Windows API calls, so we
took a different code path in win32_langinfo(). Somehow, the code
change in commit 35eeea62 (removing setlocale() calls) caused one
particular 001_initdb.pl test to fail on MinGW + ICU builds, because
pg_import_system_collations() found no collations. It might take a
MinGW user to discover the exact reason.
Updating that function to use the same code as MSVC seems to fix that
test, so lets do that. (There are plenty more places that test for MSVC
unnecessarily, to be investigated later.)
While here, also rename the helper function win32_langinfo() to
win32_get_codeset(), to explain what it does less confusingly; it's not
really a general langinfo() substitute.
Noticed by triggering the optional MinGW CI task; no build farm animals
failed.

VacuumPageMiss, and VacuumPageDirty to track buffer usage. However,
pgBufferUsage provides a more generic way to track buffer usage with

This change replaces those global variables with pgBufferUsage in
analyze. Since analyze was the sole user of those variables, it
removes their declarations. Vacuum previously used those variables but

If a partition undergoes DETACH CONCURRENTLY immediately followed by
DROP, this could cause a problem for a concurrent transaction
recomputing the partition descriptor when running a prepared statement,
because it tries to dereference a pointer to a tuple that's not found in
a catalog scan.
The existing retry logic added in commit dbca3469eb is sufficient to
cope with the overall problem, provided we don't try to dereference a
non-existant heap tuple.
Arguably, the code in RelationBuildPartitionDesc() has been wrong all
along, since no check was added in commit 898e5e3290 against receiving
a NULL tuple from the catalog scan; that bug has only become
user-visible with DETACH CONCURRENTLY which was added in branch 14.
Therefore, even though there's no known mechanism to cause a crash
because of this, backpatch the addition of such a check to all supported
branches. In branches prior to 14, this would cause the code to fail
with a "missing relpartbound for relation XYZ" error instead of
crashing; that's okay, because there are no reports of such behavior
anyway.

32d3ed816 added the "path" column to pg_backend_memory_contexts to allow
a stable method of obtaining the parent MemoryContext of a given row in
the view. Using the "path" column is now the preferred method of
obtaining the parent row.
Previously, any queries which were self-joining to this view using the
"name" and "parent" columns could get incorrect results due to the fact
that names are not unique. Here we aim to explicitly break such queries
so that they can be corrected and use the "path" column instead.
It is possible that there are more innocent users of the parent column
that just need an indication of the parent and having to write out a
self-joining CTE may be an unnecessary hassle for those cases. Let's
remove the column for now and see if anyone comes back with any
complaints. This does seem like a good time to attempt to get rid of
the column as we still have around 1 year to revert this if someone comes

Teach nbtree backwards scans to avoid relocking a just-read leaf page to
read its current left sibling link when it isn't truly necessary. This
happened inside _bt_readnextpage whenever _bt_readpage had already
determined that there'll be no further matches to the left (or at least
none for the current primitive index scan, for a scan with array keys).
A new precheck inside _bt_readnextpage is all that we need to avoid
these useless lock acquisitions. Arguably, using a precheck like this
was a missed opportunity for commit 2ed5b87f96, which taught nbtree to
drop leaf page pins early to avoid blocking cleanup by VACUUM. Forwards
scans already managed to avoid relocking the page like this.
The optimization added by this commit is particularly helpful with
backwards scans that use array keys where the scan must perform multiple
primitive index scans. Such backwards scans will now avoid a useless
leaf page re-lock at the end of each primitive index scan.
Note that this commit does not attempt to avoid needlessly re-locking a
leaf page that was just read when the scan must follow the leaf page's
left link. That more ambitious optimization could work by stashing the
left link when the page is first read by a backwards scan, allowing the
subsequent _bt_readnextpage call to optimistically skip re-reading the
original page just to get a new copy of its left link. For now we only
address cases where we don't care about our original page's left link.

Coverity complained that the hash_create() call might access
hash_table_ctl->hctl. That's a false alarm, hash_create() only
accesses that field when passed the HASH_SHARED_MEM flag. Try to
silence it by using a plain local variable instead of a const. That's
how the HASHCTL is initialized in all the other hash_create() calls.
Coverity thinks dpns->plan could be null at these points. That
shouldn't really be possible, but it's easy enough to modify the
Asserts so they'd not core-dump if it were true.
These are new in b919a97a6. Back-patch to v13; the v12 version
of the patch didn't have these Asserts.
The code intends to allow GUCs to be set within parallel workers
via function SET clauses, but not otherwise. However, doing so fails
for "session_authorization" and "role", because the assign hooks for
those attempt to set the subsidiary "is_superuser" GUC, and that call
falls foul of the "not otherwise" prohibition. We can't switch to
using GUC_ACTION_SAVE for this, so instead add a new GUC variable
flag GUC_ALLOW_IN_PARALLEL to mark is_superuser as being safe to set
anyway. (This is okay because is_superuser has context PGC_INTERNAL
and thus only hard-wired calls can change it. We'd need more thought
before applying the flag to other GUCs; but maybe there are other
use-cases.) This isn't the prettiest fix perhaps, but other
alternatives we thought of would be much more invasive.
While here, correct a thinko in commit 059de3ca4: when rejecting
a GUC setting within a parallel worker, we should return 0 not -1
if the ereport doesn't longjmp. (This seems to have no consequences
right now because no caller cares, but it's inconsistent.) Improve
the comments to try to forestall future confusion of the same kind.
Despite the lack of field complaints, this seems worth back-patching.

Currently, when a child process exits, the postmaster first scans
through BackgroundWorkerList, to see if it the child process was a
background worker. If not found, then it scans through BackendList to
see if it was a regular backend. That leads to some duplication
between the bgworker and regular backend cleanup code, as both have an
entry in the BackendList that needs to be cleaned up in the same way.
Refactor that so that we scan just the BackendList to find the child
process, and if it was a background worker, do the additional
bgworker-specific cleanup in addition to the normal Backend cleanup.
Change HandleChildCrash so that it doesn't try to handle the cleanup
of the process that already exited, only the signaling of all the
other processes. When called for any of the aux processes, the caller
had already cleared the *PID global variable, so the code in
HandleChildCrash() to do that was unused.
On Windows, if a child process exits with ERROR_WAIT_NO_CHILDREN, it's
now logged with that exit code, instead of 0. Also, if a bgworker
exits with ERROR_WAIT_NO_CHILDREN, it's now treated as crashed and is
restarted. Previously it was treated as a normal exit.
If a child process is not found in the BackendList, the log message
now calls it "untracked child process" rather than "server process".
Arguably that should be a PANIC, because we do track all the child
processes in the list, so failing to find a child process is highly
unexpected. But if we want to change that, let's discuss and do that
as a separate commit.
