Pending some solution for the problems noted in commit 742869946,
disallow dynamic creation of GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables.
If there are any extensions out there using this feature, they'd not
be happy for us to start enforcing this rule in minor releases, so
this is a HEAD-only change. The previous commit didn't make things
any worse than they already were for such cases.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20180111064900.GA51030@paquier.xyz
Code that prints out the contents of setconfig or proconfig arrays in
SQL format needs to handle GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables differently from
other ones, because for those variables, flatten_set_variable_args()
already applied a layer of quoting. The value can therefore safely
be printed as-is, and indeed must be, or flatten_set_variable_args()
will muck it up completely on reload. For all other GUC variables,
it's necessary and sufficient to quote the value as a SQL literal.
We'd recognized the need for this long ago, but mis-analyzed the
need slightly, thinking that all GUC_LIST_INPUT variables needed
the special treatment. That's actually wrong, since a valid value
of a LIST variable might include characters that need quoting,
although no existing variables accept such values.
More to the point, we hadn't made any particular effort to keep the
various places that deal with this up-to-date with the set of variables
that actually need special treatment, meaning that we'd do the wrong
thing with, for example, temp_tablespaces values. This affects dumping
of SET clauses attached to functions, as well as ALTER DATABASE/ROLE SET
commands.
In ruleutils.c we can fix it reasonably honestly by exporting a guc.c
function that allows discovering the flags for a given GUC variable.
But pg_dump doesn't have easy access to that, so continue the old method
of having a hard-wired list of affected variable names. At least we can
fix it to have just one list not two, and update the list to match
current reality.
A remaining problem with this is that it only works for built-in
GUC variables. pg_dump's list obvious knows nothing of third-party
extensions, and even the "ask guc.c" method isn't bulletproof since
the relevant extension might not be loaded. There's no obvious
solution to that, so for now, we'll just have to discourage extension
authors from inventing custom GUCs that need GUC_LIST_QUOTE.
This has been busted for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

Currently, if operator_predicate_proof() is given an operator clause like
"something op NULL", it just throws up its hands and reports it can't prove
anything. But we can often do better than that, if the operator is strict,
because then we know that the clause returns NULL overall. Depending on
whether we're trying to prove or refute something, and whether we need
weak or strong semantics for NULL, this may be enough to prove the
implication, especially when we rely on the standard rule that "false
implies anything". In particular, this lets us do something useful with
questions like "does X IN (1,3,5,NULL) imply X <= 5?" The null entry
in the IN list can effectively be ignored for this purpose, but the
proof rules were not previously smart enough to deduce that.
This patch is by me, but it owes something to previous work by
Amit Langote to try to solve problems of the form mentioned.
Thanks also to Emre Hasegeli and Ashutosh Bapat for review.

I noticed while fooling with John Naylor's bootstrap-data patch that we had
one high-numbered manually assigned OID, 8888, which evidently came from a
submission that the committer didn't bother to bring into line with usual
OID allocation practices before committing. That's a bad idea, because it
creates a hazard for other patches that may be temporarily using high OID
numbers. Change it to something more in line with what we usually do.
This evidently dates to commit abb173392. It's too late to change it
in released branches, but we can fix it in HEAD.

My commit 4dba331cb3 that moved around CommandCounterIncrement calls
in partitioning DDL code unearthed a problem with the relcache handling
for the 'default' partition: the construction of a correct relcache
entry for the partitioned table was at the mercy of lack of CCI calls in
non-trivial amounts of code. This was prone to creating problems later
on, as the code develops. This was visible as a test failure in a
compile with RELCACHE_FORCE_RELASE (buildfarm member prion).
The problem is that after the mentioned commit it was possible to create
a relcache entry that had incomplete information regarding the default
partition because I introduced a CCI between adding the catalog entries
for the default partition (StorePartitionBound) and the update of
pg_partitioned_table entry for its parent partitioned table
(update_default_partition_oid). It seems the best fix is to move the
latter so that it occurs inside the former; the purposeful lack of
intervening CCI should be more obvious, and harder to break.
I also remove a check in RelationBuildPartitionDesc that returns NULL if
the key is not set. I couldn't find any place that needs this hack
anymore; probably it was required because of bugs that have since been
fixed.
Fix a few typos I noticed while reviewing the code involved.

Logical decoding should not publish anything about tables created as
part of a heap rewrite during DDL. Those tables don't exist externally,
so consumers of logical decoding cannot do anything sensible with that
information. In ab28feae2b, we worked
around this for built-in logical replication, but that was hack.
This is a more proper fix: We mark such transient heaps using the new
field pg_class.relwrite, linking to the original relation OID. By
default, we ignore them in logical decoding before they get to the
output plugin. Optionally, a plugin can register their interest in
getting such changes, if they handle DDL specially, in which case the
new field will help them get information about the actual table.

Since e3bdb2d926, libpq failed to build on
some platforms because they did not have SSL_clear_options(). Although
mainline OpenSSL introduced SSL_clear_options() after
SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION, so the code should have built fine, at least an
old NetBSD version (build farm "coypu" NetBSD 5.1 gcc 4.1.3 PR-20080704
powerpc) has SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION but no SSL_clear_options().
So add a configure check for SSL_clear_options(). If we don't find it,
skip the call. That means on such a platform one cannot *enable* SSL
compression if the built-in default is off, but that seems an unlikely
combination anyway and not very interesting in practice.
The new macro allows to test flags for different compilers and to
store them in different CFLAG like variables. The existing
PGAC_PROG_CC_CFLAGS_OPT and PGAC_PROG_CC_VAR_OPT are changed to be
just wrappers around the new function.
This'll be used by the upcoming LLVM support, to separately detect
capabilities used by clang, when generating bitcode.

Red Hat's notion of a basic Perl installation doesn't include Test::More

Check for those during configure to spare the user the pain of digging

This avoids unnecessarily creating a RelOptInfo for which we have no
actual need. This idea is from Ashutosh Bapat, who wrote a very
different patch to accomplish a similar goal. It will be more
important if and when we get partition-wise aggregate, since then
there could be many partially grouped relations all of which could
potentially be unnecessary. In passing, this sets the grouping
relation's reltarget, which wasn't done previously but makes things
simpler for this refactoring.
Along the way, adjust things so that add_paths_to_partial_grouping_rel,
now renamed create_partial_grouping_paths, does not perform the Gather
or Gather Merge steps to generate non-partial paths from partial
paths; have the caller do it instead. This is again for the
convenience of partition-wise aggregate, which wants to inject
additional partial paths are created and before we decide which ones
to Gather/Gather Merge. This might seem like a separate change, but
it's actually pretty closely entangled; I couldn't really see much
value in separating it and having to change some things twice.

It makes sense to do the CCIs in the places that do catalog updates,
rather than before the places that error out because the former ones
fail to do it. In particular, it looks like StorePartitionBound() and
IndexSetParentIndex() ought to make their own CCIs.

The original coding of the SP-GiST scan traversalValue feature (commit
ccd6eb49a) arranged for traversal values to be stored in the query's main
executor context. That's fine if there's only one index scan per query,
but if there are many, we have a memory leak as successive scans create
new traversal values. Fix it by creating a separate memory context for
traversal values, which we can reset during spgrescan(). Back-patch
to 9.6 where this code was introduced.
In principle, adding the traversalCxt field to SpGistScanOpaqueData
creates an ABI break in the back branches. But I (tgl) have little
sympathy for extensions including spgist_private.h, so I'm not very
worried about that. Alternatively we could stick the new field at the

refresh_by_match_merge() has some issues in the way it builds a SQL
query to construct the "diff" table:
1. It doesn't require the selected unique index(es) to be indimmediate.
2. It doesn't pay attention to the particular equality semantics enforced
by a given index, but just assumes that they must be those of the column
datatype's default btree opclass.
3. It doesn't check that the indexes are btrees.
4. It's insufficiently careful to ensure that the parser will pick the
intended operator when parsing the query. (This would have been a
security bug before CVE-2018-1058.)
5. It's not careful about indexes on system columns.
The way to fix#4 is to make use of the existing code in ri_triggers.c
for generating an arbitrary binary operator clause. I chose to move
that to ruleutils.c, since that seems a more reasonable place to be
exporting such functionality from than ri_triggers.c.
While #1, #3, and #5 are just latent given existing feature restrictions,
and #2 doesn't arise in the core system for lack of alternate opclasses
with different equality behaviors, #4 seems like an issue worth
back-patching. That's the bulk of the change anyway, so just back-patch
the whole thing to 9.4 where this code was introduced.

The new unlogged_reinit recovery tests create a new tablespace using
TestLib.pm's tempdir. However, on msys that function returns a virtual
path that isn't understood by Postgres. Here we add a new function to
TestLib.pm to turn such a path into a real path on the underlying file
system, and use it in the new test to create the tablespace. The new
function is essentially a NOOP everywhere but msys.
Jeff Janes discovered that commit 7ca25b7de made one of the queries run by
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY perform badly. The root cause is
bad cardinality estimation for correlated quals, but a principled solution
to that problem is some way off, especially since the planner lacks any
statistics about whole-row variables. Moreover, in non-error cases this
query produces no rows, meaning it must be run to completion; but use of
LIMIT 1 encourages the planner to pick a fast-start, slow-completion plan,
exactly not what we want. Remove the LIMIT clause, and instead rely on
the count parameter we pass to SPI_execute() to prevent excess work if the
query does return some rows.
While we've heard no field reports of planner misbehavior with this query,
it could be that people are having performance issues that haven't reached
the level of pain needed to cause a bug report. In any case, that LIMIT
clause can't possibly do anything helpful with any existing version of the
planner, and it demonstrably can cause bad choices in some cases, so
back-patch to 9.4 where the code was introduced.

We make some changes to ModifyTableState and the EState it uses whenever

descriptors are targeted by tuples inserted in the same command.
Refactor some code, creating ExecPrepareTupleRouting, to encapsulate the
needed state changing logic, and have it invoked one level above its
current place (ie. put it in ExecModifyTable instead of ExecInsert);
this makes it all more readable.
Add a test case to exercise this.
We don't support having views as partitions; and since only views can

Commit 3fc6e2d7f5 made setop planning
stages return paths rather than plans, but all such paths were loosely
associated with a single RelOptInfo, and only the final path was added
to the RelOptInfo. Even at the time, it was foreseen that this should
be changed, because there is otherwise no good way for a single stage
of setop planning to return multiple paths. With this patch, each
stage of set operation planning now creates a separate RelOptInfo;
these are distinguished by using appropriate relid sets. Note that
this patch does nothing whatsoever about actually returning multiple
paths for the same set operation; it just makes it possible for a
future patch to do so.
Along the way, adjust things so that create_upper_paths_hook is called
for each of these new RelOptInfos rather than just once, since that
might be useful to extensions using that hook. It might be a good
to provide an FDW API here as well, but I didn't try to do that for
now.

If a view lacks an INSTEAD OF trigger, DML on it can only work by rewriting
the command into a command on the underlying base table(s). Then we will
fire triggers attached to those table(s), not those for the view. This
seems appropriate from a consistency standpoint, but nowhere was the
behavior explicitly documented, so let's do that.
There was some discussion of throwing an error or warning if a statement
trigger is created on a view without creating a row INSTEAD OF trigger.
But a simple implementation of that would result in dump/restore ordering
hazards. Given that it's been like this all along, and we hadn't heard
a complaint till now, a documentation improvement seems sufficient.

The test to exit the loop if the integer control value would overflow

"UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name" failed, with an error message
like "cannot extract system attribute from virtual tuple", if the cursor

It seems likely that the same failure could occur for CustomScan plans
and perhaps some FDW plan types, so that leaving this to be treated as an

seemed. Hence, add a bit of heaptuple.c infrastructure to let us deliver
a more on-topic message. I chose to make the message match what you get
for the case where execCurrentOf can't identify the target scan node at
all, "cursor "foo" is not a simply updatable scan of table "bar"".
Perhaps it should be different, but we can always adjust that later.
