Not specifying those environment values makes vcregress.pl fall back to
the previous default, with no extra flags for the prove command, and all

Under windows, psql processes need to be ended explicitly, or the TAP
tests hang. However, the recovery tests were doing this via
IPC::Run::kill_kill(), which causes other major problems on Windows.
We solve this by instead sending '\q' to psql so it quits of its own
accord, and then simply waiting for it. This means we can now run almost
all the recovery tests on all Windows platforms.

Protocol version 3 was introduced in PostgreSQL 7.4. There shouldn't be
many clients or servers left out there without version 3 support. But as
a courtesy, I kept just enough of the old protocol support that we can
still send the "unsupported protocol version" error in v2 format, so that
old clients can display the message properly. Likewise, libpq still
understands v2 ErrorResponse messages when establishing a connection.
The impetus to do this now is that I'm working on a patch to COPY
FROM, to always prefetch some data. We cannot do that safely with the
old protocol, because it requires parsing the input one byte at a time
to detect the end-of-copy marker.

Commit 0aa8a01d04 extends the output plugin API to allow decoding of
prepared xacts and allowed the user to enable/disable the two-phase option
via pg_logical_slot_get_changes(). This can lead to a problem such that
the first time when it gets changes via pg_logical_slot_get_changes()
without two_phase option enabled it will not get the prepared even though
prepare is after consistent snapshot. Now next time during getting changes,
if the two_phase option is enabled it can skip prepare because by that
time start decoding point has been moved. So the user will only get commit
prepared.
Allow to enable/disable this option at the create slot time and default
will be false. It will break the existing slots which is fine in a major

In addition to the existing options of "any" and "read-write", we
now support "read-only", "primary", "standby", and "prefer-standby".
"read-write" retains its previous meaning of "transactions are
read-write by default", and "read-only" inverts that. The other
three modes test specifically for hot-standby status, which is not
quite the same thing. (Setting default_transaction_read_only on
a primary server renders it read-only to this logic, but not a
standby.)
Furthermore, if talking to a v14 or later server, no extra network
round trip is needed to detect the session's status; the GUC_REPORT
variables delivered by the server are enough. When talking to an
older server, a SHOW or SELECT query is issued to detect session
read-only-ness or server hot-standby state, as needed.

Adjust some "can't happen" error messages that assumed that the page
deletion target page must be a half-dead page. This assumption was
wrong in the case of an internal target page. Simply refer to these
pages as the target page instead.
Internal pages are never marked half-dead. There is exactly one
half-dead page for each subtree undergoing deletion. The half-dead page
is also the target subtree's leaf-level page. This has been the case
since commit efada2b8, which totally overhauled nbtree page deletion.
This allows clients to find out the setting at connection time without
having to expend a query round trip to do so; which is helpful when
trying to identify read/write servers. (One must also look at
in_hot_standby, but that's already GUC_REPORT, cf bf8a662c9.)
Modifying libpq to make use of this will come soon, but I felt it
cleaner to push the server change separately.

This extends the changes made in commit cebc1d34e, teaching
parseqatom() to generate fewer or cheaper subre nodes in some edge
cases. The case of interest here is a quantified atom that is "messy"
only because it has greediness opposite to what preceded it (whereas
captures and backrefs are intrinsically messy). In this case we don't
need an iteration node, since we don't care where the sub-matches of
the quantifier are; and we might also not need a second concatenation
node. This seems of only marginal real-world use according to my
testing, but I wanted to get it in before wrapping up this series of
regex performance fixes.

In some cases, at the time that we're doing an NFA-based precheck
of whether a backref subexpression can match at a particular place
in the string, we already know which substring the referenced
subexpression matched. If so, we might as well forget about the NFA
and just compare the substring; this is faster and it gives an exact
rather than approximate answer.
In general, this optimization can help while we are prechecking within
the second child expression of a concat node, while the capture was
within the first child expression; then the substring was saved during
cdissect() of the first child and will be available to NFA checks done
while cdissect() recurses into the second child. It can help quite a
lot if the tree looks like
concat
/ \
capture concat
/ \
expensive stuff backref
as we will be able to avoid recursively dissecting the "expensive
stuff" before discovering that the backref isn't satisfied with a
particular midpoint that the lower concat node is testing. This
doesn't help if the concat tree is left-deep, as the capture node
won't get set soon enough (and it's hard to fix that without changing
the engine's match behavior). Fortunately, right-deep concat trees
are the common case.

POSIX defines the behavior of back-references thus:
The back-reference expression '\n' shall match the same (possibly
empty) string of characters as was matched by a subexpression
enclosed between "\(" and "\)" preceding the '\n'.
As far as I can see, the back-reference is supposed to consider only
the data characters matched by the referenced subexpression. However,
because our engine copies the NFA constructed from the referenced
subexpression, it effectively enforces any constraints therein, too.
As an example, '(^.)\1' ought to match 'xx', or any other string
starting with two occurrences of the same character; but in our code
it does not, and indeed can't match anything, because the '^' anchor
constraint is included in the backref's copied NFA. If POSIX intended
that, you'd think they'd mention it. Perl for one doesn't act that
way, so it's hard to conclude that this isn't a bug.
Fix by modifying the backref's NFA immediately after it's copied from
the reference, replacing all constraint arcs by EMPTY arcs so that the
constraints are treated as automatically satisfied. This still allows
us to enforce matching rules that depend only on the data characters;
for example, in '(^\d+).*\1' the NFA matching step will still know
that the backref can only match strings of digits.
Perhaps surprisingly, this change does not affect the results of any
of a rather large corpus of real-world regexes. Nonetheless, I would
not consider back-patching it, since it's a clear compatibility break.

The psql processes were not explicitly killed (but would eventually
exit due postgres shutting down). For some reason windows perl doesn't
like that, resulting in errors like
Warning: unable to close filehandle GEN20 properly: Bad file descriptor during global destruction.
The test was introduced in d6734a897e3, so no backpatching necessary.
In commit a271a1b50e, we allowed decoding at prepare time and the prepare
was decoded again if there is a restart after decoding it. It was done
that way because we can't distinguish between the cases where we have not
decoded the prepare because it was prior to consistent snapshot or we have
decoded it earlier but restarted. To distinguish between these two cases,
we have introduced an initial_consistent_point at the slot level which is
an LSN at which we found a consistent point at the time of slot creation.
This is also the point where we have exported a snapshot for the initial
copy. So, prepare transaction prior to this point are sent along with
commit prepared.
This commit bumps SNAPBUILD_VERSION because of change in SnapBuild. It
will break existing slots which is fine in a major release.

Traditionally, SIGUSR1 has been overloaded for ad-hoc signals,
procsignal.c signals and latch.c wakeups. Move that last use over to a
new dedicated signal. SIGURG is normally used to report out-of-band
socket data, but PostgreSQL doesn't use that facility.
The signal handler is now installed in all postmaster children by
InitializeLatchSupport(). Those wishing to disconnect from it should
call ShutdownLatchSupport().
Future patches will use this separation of signals to avoid the need for
a signal handler on some operating systems.

This adds a new executor node named TID Range Scan. The query planner
will generate paths for TID Range scans when quals are discovered on base
relations which search for ranges on the table's ctid column. These
ranges may be open at either end. For example, WHERE ctid >= '(10,0)';
will return all tuples on page 10 and over.
To support this, two new optional callback functions have been added to
table AM. scan_set_tidrange is used to set the scan range to just the
given range of TIDs. scan_getnextslot_tidrange fetches the next tuple
in the given range.
For AMs were scanning ranges of TIDs would not make sense, these functions
can be set to NULL in the TableAmRoutine. The query planner won't
generate TID Range Scan Paths in that case.
