This fixes a long-standing bug which was discovered while investigating
the interaction between the new join pushdown code and the EvalPlanQual
machinery: if a ForeignScan appears on the inner side of a paramaterized
nestloop, an EPQ recheck would re-return the original tuple even if
it no longer satisfied the pushed-down quals due to changed parameter
values.
This fix adds a new member to ForeignScan and ForeignScanState and a
new argument to make_foreignscan, and requires changes to FDWs which
push down quals to populate that new argument with a list of quals they
have chosen to push down. Therefore, I'm only back-patching to 9.5,
even though the bug is not new in 9.5.

Per Mark Johnston, this resolves a build error on FreeBSD related
to the fact that dtrace is modifying the generated object files
under the hood. Consequently, without this, dtrace gets reinvoked
at install time because the object files have been updated. This
is a pretty hacky fix, but it shouldn't hurt anything, and it's
not clear that it's worth expending any more effort for a feature
that not too many people are using.
Patch by Mark Johnston. This is arguably back-patchable as a bug
fix to the build system, but I'm not certain enough of the
consequences to try that. Let's see what the buildfarm (and
our packagers) think of this change on master first.
Postmaster child processes that aren't supposed to be attached to shared
memory were not bothering to close the shared memory mapping handle they
inherit from the postmaster process. That's mostly harmless, since the
handle vanishes anyway when the child process exits -- but the syslogger
process, if used, doesn't get killed and restarted during recovery from a
backend crash. That meant that Windows doesn't see the shared memory
mapping as becoming free, so it doesn't delete it and the postmaster is
unable to create a new one, resulting in failure to recover from crashes
whenever logging_collector is turned on.
Per report from Dmitry Vasilyev. It's a bit astonishing that we'd not
figured this out long ago, since it's been broken from the very beginnings
of out native Windows support; probably some previously-unexplained trouble
reports trace to this.
A secondary problem is that on Cygwin (perhaps only in older versions?),
exec() may not detach from the shared memory segment after all, in which
case these child processes did remain attached to shared memory, posing
the risk of an unexpected shared memory clobber if they went off the rails
somehow. That may be a long-gone bug, but we can deal with it now if it's
still live, by detaching within the infrastructure introduced here to deal
with closing the handle.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

pg_ctl start with -w previously relied on a heuristic that the postmaster
would surely always manage to create postmaster.pid within five seconds.
Unfortunately, that fails much more often than we would like on some of the
slower, more heavily loaded buildfarm members.
We have known for quite some time that we could remove the need for that
heuristic on Unix by using fork/exec instead of system() to launch the
postmaster. This allows us to know the exact PID of the postmaster, which
allows near-certain verification that the postmaster.pid file is the one
we want and not a leftover, and it also lets us use waitpid() to detect
reliably whether the child postmaster has exited or not.
What was blocking this change was not wanting to rewrite the Windows
version of start_postmaster() to avoid use of CMD.EXE. That's doable
in theory but would require fooling about with stdout/stderr redirection,
and getting the handling of quote-containing postmaster switches to
stay the same might be rather ticklish. However, we realized that
we don't have to do that to fix the problem, because we can test
whether the shell process has exited as a proxy for whether the
postmaster is still alive. That doesn't allow an exact check of the
PID in postmaster.pid, but we're no worse off than before in that
respect; and we do get to get rid of the heuristic about how long the
postmaster might take to create postmaster.pid.
On Unix, this change means that a second "pg_ctl start -w" immediately
after another such command will now reliably fail, whereas previously
it would succeed if done within two seconds of the earlier command.
Since that's a saner behavior anyway, it's fine. On Windows, the case can
still succeed within the same time window, since pg_ctl can't tell that the
earlier postmaster's postmaster.pid isn't the pidfile it is looking for.
To ensure stable test results on Windows, we can insert a short sleep into
the test script for pg_ctl, ensuring that the existing pidfile looks stale.
This hack can be removed if we ever do rewrite start_postmaster(), but that
no longer seems like a high-priority thing to do.
Back-patch to all supported versions, both because the current behavior
is buggy and because we must do that if we want the buildfarm failures
to go away.

Many functions stored JsonbIteratorToken values in variables of other
integer types. Also, standardize order relative to other declarations.
Expect compilers to generate the same code before and after this change.
Cache strxfrm() blobs across calls made to the text SortSupport
abbreviation routine. This can speed up sorting if the same string
needs to be abbreviated many times in a row.
Also, cache the result of the previous strcoll() comparison, so that
if we're asked to compare the same strings agin, we do need to call
strcoll() again.
Perhaps surprisingly, these optimizations don't seem to hurt even when
they don't help. memcmp() is really cheap compared to strcoll() or
strxfrm().

If we do some byte-swapping while abbreviating, we can do comparisons

This flag has proven to be a recipe for bugs, and it doesn't seem like
it can really buy anything in terms of performance. So let's just
*always* set the process latch when we receive SIGUSR1 instead of
trying to do it only when needed.
Per my recent proposal on pgsql-hackers.
During expand_security_quals, we take the security barrier quals on an
RTE and create a subquery which evaluates the quals. During this, we
have to replace any variables in the outer query which refer to the
original RTE with references to the columns from the subquery.
We need to also perform that replacement for any Vars in the
append_rel_list.
Only backpatching to 9.5 as we only go through this process in 9.4 for
auto-updatable security barrier views, which UNION ALL queries aren't.

Backpatch to 9.4 for jsonb and 9.3 for json.
The postmaster now checks every minute or so (worst case, at most two
minutes) that postmaster.pid is still there and still contains its own PID.
If not, it performs an immediate shutdown, as though it had received
SIGQUIT.
The original goal behind this change was to ensure that failed buildfarm
runs would get fully cleaned up, even if the test scripts had left a
postmaster running, which is not an infrequent occurrence. When the
buildfarm script removes a test postmaster's $PGDATA directory, its next
check on postmaster.pid will fail and cause it to exit. Previously, manual
intervention was often needed to get rid of such orphaned postmasters,
since they'd block new test postmasters from obtaining the expected socket
address.
However, by checking postmaster.pid and not something else, we can provide
additional robustness: manual removal of postmaster.pid is a frequent DBA
mistake, and now we can at least limit the damage that will ensue if a new
postmaster is started while the old one is still alive.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since we won't get the desired
improvement in buildfarm reliability otherwise.

This adds regressions tests which are specific to INSERT+RETURNING and

Back-patch to 9.5 as the prior commit was.
The tsquery, ltxtquery and query_int data types have a common ancestor.
Having acquired check_stack_depth() calls independently, each was
missing at least one call. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
A range type can name another range type as its subtype, and a record
type can bear a column of another record type. Consequently, functions
like range_cmp() and record_recv() are recursive. Functions at risk
include operator family members and referents of pg_type regproc
columns. Treat as recursive any such function that looks up and calls
the same-purpose function for a record column type or the range subtype.
Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
An array type's element type is never itself an array type, so array
functions are unaffected. Recursion depth proportional to array
dimensionality, found in array_dim_to_jsonb(), is fine thanks to MAXDIM.
Sufficiently-deep recursion heretofore elicited a SIGSEGV. If an
application constructs PostgreSQL json or jsonb values from arbitrary
user input, application users could have exploited this to terminate all
active database connections. That applies to 9.3, where the json parser
adopted recursive descent, and later versions. Only row_to_json() and
array_to_json() were at risk in 9.2, both in a non-security capacity.
Back-patch to 9.2, where the json type was introduced.

On reflection, the submitted patch didn't really work to prevent the
request size from exceeding MaxAllocSize, because of the fact that we'd
happily round nbuckets up to the next power of 2 after we'd limited it to
max_pointers. The simplest way to enforce the limit correctly is to
round max_pointers down to a power of 2 when it isn't one already.
(Note that the constraint to INT_MAX / 2, if it were doing anything useful
at all, is properly applied after that.)
Limit the size of the hashtable pointer array to not more than
MaxAllocSize, per reports from Kouhei Kaigai and others of "invalid memory
alloc request size" failures. There was discussion of allowing the array
to get larger than that by using the "huge" palloc API, but so far no proof
that that is actually a good idea, and at this point in the 9.5 cycle major
changes from old behavior don't seem like the way to go.
Fix a rather serious secondary bug in the new code, which was that it
didn't ensure nbuckets remained a power of 2 when recomputing it for the
multiple-batch case.
Clean up sloppy division of labor between ExecHashIncreaseNumBuckets and
its sole call site.
Null path elements and, where the object is an array, invalid integer

Specifically, make its effect independent from the row_security GUC, and
make it affect permission checks pertinent to views the BYPASSRLS role
owns. The row_security GUC thereby ceases to change successful-query
behavior; it can only make a query fail with an error. Back-patch to
9.5, where BYPASSRLS was introduced.
Without CASCADE, if an extension has an unfullfilled dependency on
another extension, CREATE EXTENSION ERRORs out with "required extension
... is not installed". That is annoying, especially when that dependency
is an implementation detail of the extension, rather than something the
extension's user can make sense of.
In addition to CASCADE this also includes a small set of regression
tests around CREATE EXTENSION.

Backpatch: 9.4-, where replication slots were added
Four related issues:
1) attnos/varnos/resnos for EXCLUDED were out of sync when a column
after one dropped in the underlying relation was referenced.
2) References to whole-row variables (i.e. EXCLUDED.*) lead to errors.
3) It was possible to reference system columns in the EXCLUDED pseudo
relations, even though they would not have valid contents.
4) References to EXCLUDED were rewritten by the RLS machinery, as
EXCLUDED was treated as if it were the underlying relation.
To fix the first two issues, generate the excluded targetlist with
dropped columns in mind and add an entry for whole row
variables. Instead of unconditionally adding a wholerow entry we could
pull up the expression if needed, but doing it unconditionally seems
simpler. The wholerow entry is only really needed for ruleutils/EXPLAIN
support anyway.
The remaining two issues are addressed by changing the EXCLUDED RTE to
have relkind = composite. That fits with EXCLUDED not actually being a
real relation, and allows to treat it differently in the relevant
places. scanRTEForColumn now skips looking up system columns when the
RTE has a composite relkind; fireRIRrules() already had a corresponding
check, thereby preventing RLS expansion on EXCLUDED.
Also add tests for these issues, and improve a few comments around
excluded handling in setrefs.c.

DST law changes in Cayman Islands, Fiji, Moldova, Morocco, Norfolk Island,
North Korea, Turkey, Uruguay. New zone America/Fort_Nelson for Canadian

Some of the functions in regex compilation and execution recurse, and
therefore could in principle be driven to stack overflow. The Tcl crew
has seen this happen in practice in duptraverse(), though their fix was
to put in a hard-wired limit on the number of recursive levels, which is
not too appetizing --- fortunately, we have enough infrastructure to check
the actually available stack. Greg Stark has also seen it in other places
while fuzz testing on a machine with limited stack space. Let's put guards
in to prevent crashes in all these places.
Since the regex code would leak memory if we simply threw elog(ERROR),
we have to introduce an API that checks for stack depth without throwing
such an error. Fortunately that's not difficult.
In cfindloop(), if the initial call to shortest() reports that a
zero-length match is possible at the current search start point, but then
it is unable to construct any actual match to that, it'll just loop around
with the same start point, and thus make no progress. We need to force the
start point to be advanced. This is safe because the loop over "begin"
points has already tried and failed to match starting at "close", so there
is surely no need to try that again.
This bug was introduced in commit e2bd904955e2221eddf01110b1f25002de2aaa83,
wherein we allowed continued searching after we'd run out of match
possibilities, but evidently failed to think hard enough about exactly
where we needed to search next.
Because of the way this code works, such a match failure is only possible
in the presence of backrefs --- otherwise, shortest()'s judgment that a
match is possible should always be correct. That probably explains how
come the bug has escaped detection for several years.
The actual fix is a one-liner, but I took the trouble to add/improve some
comments related to the loop logic.
After fixing that, the submitted test case "()*\1" didn't loop anymore.
But it reported failure, though it seems like it ought to match a
zero-length string; both Tcl and Perl think it does. That seems to be from
overenthusiastic optimization on my part when I rewrote the iteration match
logic in commit 173e29aa5deefd9e71c183583ba37805c8102a72: we can't just
"declare victory" for a zero-length match without bothering to set match
data for capturing parens inside the iterator node.
Per fuzz testing by Greg Stark. The first part of this is a bug in all
supported branches, and the second part is a bug since 9.2 where the
iteration rewrite happened.
Commit 9662143f0c35d64d7042fbeaf879df8f0b54be32 added infrastructure to
allow regular-expression operations to be terminated early in the event
of SIGINT etc. However, fuzz testing by Greg Stark disclosed that there
are still cases where regex compilation could run for a long time without
noticing a cancel request. Specifically, the fixempties() phase never
adds new states, only new arcs, so it doesn't hit the cancel check I'd put
in newstate(). Add one to newarc() as well to cover that.
Some experimentation of my own found that regex execution could also run
for a long time despite a pending cancel. We'd put a high-level cancel
check into cdissect(), but there was none inside the core text-matching
routines longest() and shortest(). Ordinarily those inner loops are very
very fast ... but in the presence of lookahead constraints, not so much.
As a compromise, stick a cancel check into the stateset cache-miss
function, which is enough to guarantee a cancel check at least once per
lookahead constraint test.
Making this work required more attention to error handling throughout the
regex executor. Henry Spencer had apparently originally intended longest()
and shortest() to be incapable of incurring errors while running, so
neither they nor their subroutines had well-defined error reporting
behaviors. However, that was already broken by the lookahead constraint
feature, since lacon() can surely suffer an out-of-memory failure ---
which, in the code as it stood, might never be reported to the user at all,
but just silently be treated as a non-match of the lookahead constraint.
Normalize all that by inserting explicit error tests as needed. I took the
opportunity to add some more comments to the code, too.
Back-patch to all supported branches, like the previous patch.
