int2vectorin limited the number of array elements it'd take to
FUNC_MAX_ARGS, which is probably fine for the traditional use-cases.
But now that pg_publication_rel.prattrs is an int2vector, it's not
fine at all: it's easy to construct cases where that can have up to
about MaxTupleAttributeNumber entries. Trying to replicate such
tables leads to logical-replication failures.
As long as we have to touch this code anyway, let's just remove
the a-priori limit altogether, and let it accept any size that'll
be allowed by repalloc. (Note that since int2vector isn't toastable,
we cannot store arrays longer than about BLCKSZ/2; but there is no
good excuse for letting int2vectorin depend on that. Perhaps we
will lift the no-toast restriction someday.)
While at it, also improve the equivalent logic in oidvectorin.
I don't know of any practical use-case for long oidvectors right
now, but doing it right actually makes the code shorter.
Per report from Erik Rijkers. Back-patch to v15 where
pg_publication_rel.prattrs was added.

In commit 8bf6ec3ba I assumed that no code path could reach
ExecGetExtraUpdatedCols without having gone through
ExecInitStoredGenerated. That turns out not to be the case in
logical replication: if there's an ON UPDATE trigger on the target
table, trigger.c will call this code before anybody has set up its
generated columns. Having seen that, I don't have a lot of faith in
there not being other such paths. ExecGetExtraUpdatedCols can call
ExecInitStoredGenerated for itself, as long as we are willing to
assume that it is only called in CMD_UPDATE operations, which on
the whole seems like a safer leap of faith.

Commit 60684dd8 left loose ends when it came to maintaining toast
tables or partitions.
For toast tables, simply skip the privilege check if the toast table
is an indirect target of the maintenance command, because the main
table privileges have already been checked.
For partitions, allow the maintenance command if the user has the
MAINTAIN privilege on the partition or any parent.
Also make CLUSTER emit "skipping" messages when the user doesn't have
privileges, similar to VACUUM.

The prior behavior was confusing and hard to document. For instance,
if you had UPDATE privileges, you could lock a table in any lock mode
except ACCESS SHARE mode.
Now, if granted a privilege to lock at a given mode, one also has
privileges to lock at a less-conflicting mode. MAINTAIN, UPDATE,
DELETE, and TRUNCATE privileges allow any lock mode. INSERT privileges
allow ROW EXCLUSIVE (or below). SELECT privileges allow ACCESS SHARE.

We don't allow different column lists for the same table in the different
publications of the single subscription. A publication with a column list
except for dropped and generated columns should be considered the same as
a publication with no column list (which implicitly includes all columns
as part of the columns list). However, as we were not excluding the
dropped and generated columns from the column list combining such
publications leads to an error "cannot use different column lists for
table ...".
We decided not to backpatch this fix as there is a risk of users seeing
this as a behavior change and also we didn't see any field report of this

The WAIT_USE_EPOLL and WAIT_USE_KQUEUE implementations of
WaitEventSetWaitBlock() confused the size of their internal buffer with
the size of the caller's output buffer, and could ask the kernel for too
many events. In fact the set of events retrieved from the kernel needs
to be able to fit in both buffers, so take the smaller of the two.
The WAIT_USE_POLL and WAIT_USE WIN32 implementations didn't have this
confusion.
This probably didn't come up before because we always used the same
number in both places, but commit 7389aad6 calculates a dynamic size at
construction time, while using MAXLISTEN for its output event buffer on

Const qualifiers ensure that we don't do something stupid in the

an example:

Here one can instantly tell that node->next is not going to be set to

The code that handles authentication for user maps was pretty confusing
with its choice of variable names. It involves two types of users: a
system user and a Postgres user (well, role), and these were not named
consistently throughout the code that processes the user maps loaded
from pg_ident.conf at authentication.
This commit changes the following things to improve the situation:
- Rename "pg_role" to "pg_user" and "token" to "system_user" in
IndetLine. These choices are more consistent with the pg_ident.conf
example in the docs, as well. "token" has been introduced recently in
fc579e1, and it is way worse than the choice before that, "ident_user".
- Switch the order of the fields in IdentLine to map with the order of
the items in the ident files, as of map name, system user and PG user.
- In check_ident_usermap(), rename "regexp_pgrole" to "expanded_pg_user"
when processing a regexp for the system user entry in a user map. This
variable does not store a regular expression at all: it would be either
a string or a substitution to \1 if the Postgres role is specified as
such.

This reverts commit 1b4d280ea1eb7ddb2e16654d5fa16960bb959566.
It's broken the buildfarm members that run cross-version-upgrade tests,
because they're not prepared to deal with cosmetic differences between
CREATE VIEW commands emitted by older servers and HEAD. Even if we had
a solution to that, which we don't, it'd take some time to roll it out
to the affected animals. This improvement isn't valuable enough to
justify addressing that problem on an emergency basis, so revert it
for now.
Switch to a design similar to regular backends, instead of the previous
arrangement where signal handlers did non-trivial state management and
called fork(). The main changes are:
* The postmaster now has its own local latch to wait on. (For now, we
don't want other backends setting its latch directly, but that could
probably be made to work with more research on robustness.)
* The existing signal handlers are cut in two: a handle_pm_XXX() part
that just sets pending_pm_XXX flags and the latch, and a
process_pm_XXX() part that runs later when the latch is seen.
* Signal handlers are now installed with the regular pqsignal()
function rather than the special pqsignal_pm() function; historical
portability concerns about the effect of SA_RESTART on select() are no
longer relevant, and we don't need to block signals anymore.

The rule system needs "old" and/or "new" pseudo-RTEs in rule actions
that are ON INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Historically it's put such entries
into the ON SELECT rules of views as well, but those are really quite
vestigial. The only thing we've used them for is to carry the
view's relid forward to AcquireExecutorLocks (so that we can
re-lock the view to verify it hasn't changed before re-using a plan)
and to carry its relid and permissions data forward to execution-time
permissions checks. What we can do instead of that is to retain
these fields of the RTE_RELATION RTE for the view even after we
convert it to an RTE_SUBQUERY RTE. This requires a tiny amount of
extra complication in the planner and AcquireExecutorLocks, but on
the other hand we can get rid of the logic that moves that data from
one place to another.
The principal immediate benefit of doing this, aside from a small
saving in the pg_rewrite data for views, is that these pseudo-RTEs
no longer trigger ruleutils.c's heuristic about qualifying variable
names when the rangetable's length is more than 1. That results
in quite a number of small simplifications in regression test outputs,
which are all to the good IMO.
Bump catversion because we need to dump a few more fields of
RTE_SUBQUERY RTEs. While those will always be zeroes anyway in
stored rules (because we'd never populate them until query rewrite)
they are useful for debugging, and it seems like we'd better make
sure to transmit such RTEs accurately in plans sent to parallel
workers. I don't think the executor actually examines these fields
after startup, but someday it might.

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.

Commits cf5eb37c5 and e5b8a4c09 each created a new role that they
forgot to remove again. This breaks the use-case of running "make
installcheck" more than once, and it's also against project policy
because it'd be quite unfriendly behavior if one were running
"make installcheck" against a non-throwaway installation.
There are a number of places where a shell command is constructed with
percent-placeholders (like %x). It's cumbersome to have to open-code
this several times. This factors out this logic into a separate
function. This also allows us to ensure consistency for and document
some subtle behaviors, such as what to do with unrecognized
placeholders.
The unified handling is now that incorrect and unknown placeholders
are an error, where previously in most cases they were skipped or
ignored. This affects the following settings:
- archive_cleanup_command
- archive_command
- recovery_end_command
- restore_command
- ssl_passphrase_command
The following settings are part of this refactoring but already had
stricter error handling and should be unchanged in their behavior:

Additionally, this adjusts the parallel distinct code so that we now

Can be set to the empty string, or to either or both of "set" or
"inherit". If set to a non-empty value, a non-superuser who creates
a role (necessarily by relying up the CREATEROLE privilege) will
grant that role back to themselves with the specified options.
This isn't a security feature, because the grant that this feature
triggers can also be performed explicitly. Instead, it's a user experience
feature. A superuser would necessarily inherit the privileges of any
created role and be able to access all such roles via SET ROLE;
with this patch, you can configure createrole_self_grant = 'set, inherit'
to provide a similar experience for a user who has CREATEROLE but not

Previously, CREATEROLE users were permitted to make nearly arbitrary
changes to roles that they didn't create, with certain exceptions,
particularly superuser roles. Instead, allow CREATEROLE users to make such
changes to roles for which they possess ADMIN OPTION, and to
grant membership only in roles for which they possess ADMIN OPTION.
When a CREATEROLE user who is not a superuser creates a role, grant
ADMIN OPTION on the newly-created role to the creator, so that they
can administer roles they create or for which they have been given
privileges.
With these changes, CREATEROLE users still have very significant
powers that unprivileged users do not receive: they can alter, rename,
drop, comment on, change the password for, and change security labels
on roles. However, they can now do these things only for roles for
which they possess appropriate privileges, rather than all
non-superuser roles; moreover, they cannot grant a role such as

Having done that, the failure rate of this script should be
