Supply a new memory manager for RuntimeDyld, to avoid crashes in
generated code caused by memory placement that can overflow a 32 bit
data type. This is a drop-in replacement for the
llvm::SectionMemoryManager class in the LLVM library, with Michael
Smith's proposed fix from
https://www.github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/71968.
We hereby slurp it into our own source tree, after moving into a new
namespace llvm::backport and making some minor adjustments so that it
can be compiled with older LLVM versions as far back as 12. It's harder
to make it work on even older LLVM versions, but it doesn't seem likely
that people are really using them so that is not investigated for now.
The problem could also be addressed by switching to JITLink instead of
RuntimeDyld, and that is the LLVM project's recommended solution as
the latter is about to be deprecated. We'll have to do that soon enough
anyway, and then when the LLVM version support window advances far
enough in a few years we'll be able to delete this code. Unfortunately
that wouldn't be enough for PostgreSQL today: in most relevant versions
of LLVM, JITLink is missing or incomplete.
Several other projects have already back-ported this fix into their fork
of LLVM, which is a vote of confidence despite the lack of commit into
LLVM as of today. We don't have our own copy of LLVM so we can't do
exactly what they've done; instead we have a copy of the whole patched
class so we can pass an instance of it to RuntimeDyld.
The LLVM project hasn't chosen to commit the fix yet, and even if it
did, it wouldn't be back-ported into the releases of LLVM that most of
our users care about, so there is not much point in waiting any longer
for that. If they make further changes and commit it to LLVM 19 or 20,
we'll still need this for older versions, but we may want to
resynchronize our copy and update some comments.
The changes that we've had to make to our copy can be seen by diffing
our SectionMemoryManager.{h,cpp} files against the ones in the tree of
the pull request. Per the LLVM project's license requirements, a copy
is in SectionMemoryManager.LICENSE.
This should fix the spate of crash reports we've been receiving lately
from users on large memory ARM systems.
Back-patch to all supported releases.

The inplace update survives ROLLBACK. The inval didn't, so another
backend's DDL could then update the row without incorporating the
inplace update. In the test this fixes, a mix of CREATE INDEX and ALTER
TABLE resulted in a table with an index, yet relhasindex=f. That is a
source of index corruption. Back-patch to v12 (all supported versions).
The back branch versions don't change WAL, because those branches just

... to fix bugs when the referenced table is partitioned.
The catalog representation we chose for foreign keys connecting
partitioned tables (in commit f56f8f8da6af) is inconvenient, in the
sense that a standalone table has a different way to represent the
constraint when referencing a partitioned table, than when the same
table becomes a partition (and vice versa). Because of this, we need to
create additional catalog rows on detach (pg_constraint and pg_trigger),
and remove them on attach. We were doing some of those things, but not
all of them, leading to missing catalog rows in certain cases.
The worst problem seems to be that we are missing action triggers after
detaching a partition, which means that you could update/delete rows
from the referenced partitioned table that still had referencing rows on
that table, the server failing to throw the required errors.
!!!
Note that this means existing databases with FKs that reference
partitioned tables might have rows that break relational integrity, on
tables that were once partitions on the referencing side of the FK.
Another possible problem is that trying to reattach a table
that had been detached would fail indicating that internal triggers
cannot be found, which from the user's point of view is nonsensical.
In branches 15 and above, we fix this by creating a new helper function
addFkConstraint() which is in charge of creating a standalone
pg_constraint row, and repurposing addFkRecurseReferencing() and
addFkRecurseReferenced() so that they're only the recursive routine for
each side of the FK, and they call addFkConstraint() to create
pg_constraint at each partitioning level and add the necessary triggers.
These new routines can be used during partition creation, partition
attach and detach, and foreign key creation. This reduces redundant
code and simplifies the flow.
In branches 14 and 13, we have a much simpler fix that consists on
simply removing the constraint on detach. The reason is that those
branches are missing commit f4566345cf40, which reworked the way this
works in a way that we didn't consider back-patchable at the time.
We opted to leave branch 12 alone, because it's different from branch 13
enough that the fix doesn't apply; and because it is going in EOL mode
very soon, patching it now might be worse since there's no way to undo
the damage if it goes wrong.
Existing databases might need to be repaired.
In the future we might want to rethink the catalog representation to
avoid this problem, but for now the code seems to do what's required to
make the constraints operate correctly.

Commit d01ce180 invented a new way to find the latest MacPorts version.
By bad luck, a new beta release has just been published, and it seems

out line, I just didn't expect to have to use it so soon...
Also include the whole MacPorts installation script in the cache key, so
that changes to the script cause a fresh installation. This should make

image, currently ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-runner:sonoma, for github
accounts using free CI resources (as opposed to dedicated runner
machines, as cfbot uses). Let's just ask for that image anyway, to stay
in sync.
2. Instead of hard-coding a MacPorts installation URL, deduce it from
the running macOS version and the available releases. This removes the
need to keep the ci_macports_packages.sh in sync with .cirrus.task.yml,
and to advance the MacPorts version from time to time.

macOS 15's SDK pulls in headers related to <regex.h> when we include
<xlocale.h>. This causes our own regex_t implementation to clash with
the OS's regex_t implementation. Luckily our function names already had
pg_ prefixes, but the macros and typenames did not.
Include <regex.h> explicitly on all POSIX systems, and fix everything
that breaks. Then we can prove that we are capable of fully hiding and
replacing the system regex API with our own.
1. Deal with standard-clobbering macros by undefining them all first.
POSIX says they are "symbolic constants". If they are macros, this
allows us to redefine them. If they are enums or variables, our macros
will hide them.
2. Deal with standard-clobbering types by giving our types pg_
prefixes, and then using macros to redirect xxx_t -> pg_xxx_t.
After including our "regex/regex.h", the system <regex.h> is hidden,
because we've replaced all the standard names. The PostgreSQL source
tree and extensions can continue to use standard prefix-less type and
macro names, but reach our implementation, if they included our
"regex/regex.h" header.

We did not recover the subtransaction IDs of prepared transactions

We missed performing table sync if the invalidation happened while the

This commit addresses a set of issues when changing token type mappings
in a text search configuration when using duplicated token names:
- ADD MAPPING would fail on insertion because of a constraint failure
after inserting the same mapping.
- ALTER MAPPING with an "overridden" configuration failed with "tuple
already updated by self" when the token mappings are removed.
- DROP MAPPING failed with "tuple already updated by self", like
previously, but in a different code path.
The code is refactored so the token names (with their numbers) are
handled as a List with unique members rather than an array with numbers,
ensuring that no duplicates mess up with the catalog inserts, updates
and deletes. The list is generated by getTokenTypes(), with the same
error handling as previously while duplicated tokens are discarded from
the list used to work on the catalogs.
Regression tests are expanded to cover much more ground for the cases
fixed by this commit, as there was no coverage for the code touched in
this commit. A bit more is done regarding the fact that a token name
not supported by a configuration's parser should result in an error even
if IF EXISTS is used in a DROP MAPPING clause. This is implied in the
code but there was no coverage for that, and it was very easy to miss.
These issues exist since at least their introduction in core with
140d4ebcb46e, so backpatch all the way down.

We should have done it this way all along, but we accidentally got

While at it, remove our configure probes for BIO_get_data as well

A significant chunk of the time on the macos CI task is spent installing
packages using homebrew. The downloads of the packages are cached, but the
installation needs to happen every time. We can't cache the whole homebrew
installation, because it is too large due to pre-installed packages.
Speed this up by installing packages using macports and caching the
installation as .dmg. That's a lot faster than unpacking a tarball.
In addition, don't install llvm - it wasn't enabled when building, so it's
just a waste of time/space.
This substantially speeds up the mac CI time, both in the cold cache and in

Calling fseek() or ftello() on a handle to a non-seeking device such as
a pipe or a communications device is not supported. Unfortunately,
MSVC's flavor of these routines, _fseeki64() and _ftelli64(), do not
return an error when given a pipe as handle. Some of the logic of
pg_dump and restore relies on these routines to check if a handle is
seekable, causing failures when passing the contents of pg_dump to
pg_restore through a pipe, for example.
This commit introduces wrappers for fseeko() and ftello() on MSVC so as
any callers are able to properly detect the cases of non-seekable
handles. This relies mainly on GetFileType(), sharing a bit of code
with the MSVC port for fstat(). The code in charge of getting a file
type is refactored into a new file called win32common.c, shared by
win32stat.c and the new win32fseek.c. It includes the MSVC ports for
fseeko() and ftello().
Like 765f5df, this is backpatched down to 14, where the fstat()
implementation for MSVC is able to understand about files larger than
4GB in size. Using a TAP test for that is proving to be tricky as
IPC::Run handles the pipes by itself, still I have been able to check
the fix manually.

OpenSSL 1.1.1 and newer versions have added support for RSA-PSS
certificates, which requires the use of a specific routine in OpenSSL to
determine which hash function to use when compiling it when using
channel binding in SCRAM-SHA-256. X509_get_signature_nid(), that is the
original routine the channel binding code has relied on, is not able to
determine which hash algorithm to use for such certificates. However,
X509_get_signature_info(), new to OpenSSL 1.1.1, is able to do it. This
commit switches the channel binding logic to rely on
X509_get_signature_info() over X509_get_signature_nid(), which would be
the choice when building with 1.1.1 or newer.
The error could have been triggered on the client or the server, hence
libpq and the backend need to have their related code paths patched.
Note that attempting to load an RSA-PSS certificate with OpenSSL 1.1.0
or older leads to a failure due to an unsupported algorithm.
The discovery of relying on X509_get_signature_info() comes from Jacob,
the tests have been written by Heikki (with few tweaks from me), while I
have bundled the whole together while adding the bits needed for MSVC
and meson.
This issue exists since channel binding exists, so backpatch all the way
down. Some tests are added in 15~, triggered if compiling with OpenSSL

Currently, preloaded libraries are expected to request additional
shared memory and LWLocks in _PG_init(). However, it is not unusal
for such requests to depend on MaxBackends, which won't be
initialized at that time. Such requests could also depend on GUCs
that other modules might change. This introduces a new hook where
modules can safely use MaxBackends and GUCs to request additional
shared memory and LWLocks.
Furthermore, this change restricts requests for shared memory and
LWLocks to this hook. Previously, libraries could make requests
until the size of the main shared memory segment was calculated.
Unlike before, we no longer silently ignore requests received at
invalid times. Instead, we FATAL if someone tries to request
additional shared memory or LWLocks outside of the hook.

The current setup assumes that commands for lz4, zstd and gzip always
exist by default if not enforced by a user's environment. However,
vcpkg, as one example, installs libraries but no binaries, so this
default setup to assume that a command should always be present would
cause failures. This commit improves the detection of such external
commands as follows:
* If a ENV value is available, trust the environment/user and use it.
* If a ENV value is not available, check its execution by looking in the
current PATH, by launching a simple "$command --version" (that should be
portable enough).
** On execution failure, ignore ENV{command}.
** On execution success, set ENV{command} = "$command".
Note that this new rule applies to gzip, lz4 and zstd but not tar that
we assume will always exist. Those commands are set up in the
environment only when using bincheck and taptest. The CI includes all
those commands and I have checked that their setup is correct there. I
have also tested this change in a MSVC environment where we have none of
those commands.
While on it, remove the references to lz4 from the documentation and
vcregress.pl in ~v13. --with-lz4 has been added in v14~ so there is no
point to have this information in these older branches.

The test for lz4.h used AC_CHECK_HEADERS, but nothing was using the
resulting symbol HAVE_LZ4_H. Change this to use AC_CHECK_HEADER
instead. This was probably an oversight, seeing that the nearby
similar tests do this correctly.
The testclient and uri-regress programs in the libpq test suite had
quite generic names which didn't convey much meaning. Since they are
installed as part of the MSVC test runs, ensure that their purpose
is a little bit clearer by renaming with a libpq_ prefix. While at
it rename uri-regress to uri_regress to avoid mixing dash and under-
score in the same filename.

Compression option handling (level, algorithm or even workers) can be
used across several parts of the system and not only base backups.
Structures, objects and routines are renamed in consequence, to remove
the concept of base backups from this part of the code making this
change straight-forward.
pg_receivewal, that has gained support for LZ4 since babbbb5, will make
use of this infrastructure for its set of compression options, bringing
more consistency with pg_basebackup. This cleanup needs to be done
before releasing a beta of 15. pg_dump is a potential future target, as
well, and adding more compression options to it may happen in 16~.

The existing coding resulted in touching every copyright-containing
file in the tree, even if it was already up to date. That doesn't
matter much for the annual run, but it's an annoyance if you try
to use the script for mop-up at the close of a devel cycle, as
I just did.

Commit 4a7e964fc6 made pgperlsyncheck fail, but apparently nobody
noticed, although the buildfarm module that does more or less the same
thing was modified. So fix the in-core test. I will look at unifying the
two sets of tests so we avoid a future mismatch.
Introduce a new GUC recovery_prefetch. When enabled, look ahead in the
WAL and try to initiate asynchronous reading of referenced data blocks
that are not yet cached in our buffer pool. For now, this is done with
posix_fadvise(), which has several caveats. Since not all OSes have
that system call, "try" is provided so that it can be enabled where
available. Better mechanisms for asynchronous I/O are possible in later
work.
Set to "try" for now for test coverage. Default setting to be finalized
before release.
The GUC wal_decode_buffer_size limits the distance we can look ahead in
bytes of decoded data.
The existing GUC maintenance_io_concurrency is used to limit the number
of concurrent I/Os allowed, based on pessimistic heuristics used to
infer that I/Os have begun and completed. We'll also not look more than
maintenance_io_concurrency * 4 block references ahead.

Previously the statistics collector received statistics updates via UDP and
shared statistics data by writing them out to temporary files regularly. These
files can reach tens of megabytes and are written out up to twice a
second. This has repeatedly prevented us from adding additional useful
statistics.
Now statistics are stored in shared memory. Statistics for variable-numbered
objects are stored in a dshash hashtable (backed by dynamic shared
memory). Fixed-numbered stats are stored in plain shared memory.
The header for pgstat.c contains an overview of the architecture.
The stats collector is not needed anymore, remove it.
By utilizing the transactional statistics drop infrastructure introduced in a
prior commit statistics entries cannot "leak" anymore. Previously leaked
statistics were dropped by pgstat_vacuum_stat(), called from [auto-]vacuum. On
systems with many small relations pgstat_vacuum_stat() could be quite
expensive.
Now that replicas drop statistics entries for dropped objects, it is not
necessary anymore to reset stats when starting from a cleanly shut down
replica.
Subsequent commits will perform some further code cleanup, adapt docs and add
tests.

One problematic part of the current statistics collector design is that there
is no reliable way of getting rid of statistics entries. Because of that
pgstat_vacuum_stat() (called by [auto-]vacuum) matches all stats for the
current database with the catalog contents and tries to drop now-superfluous
entries. That's quite expensive. What's worse, it doesn't work on physical
replicas, despite physical replicas collection statistics entries.
This commit introduces infrastructure to create / drop statistics entries
transactionally, together with the underlying catalog objects (functions,
relations, subscriptions). pgstat_xact.c maintains a list of stats entries
created / dropped transactionally in the current transaction. To ensure the
removal of statistics entries is durable dropped statistics entries are
included in commit / abort (and prepare) records, which also ensures that
stats entries are dropped on standbys.
Statistics entries created separately from creating the underlying catalog
object (e.g. when stats were previously lost due to an immediate restart)
are *not* WAL logged. However that can only happen outside of the transaction
creating the catalog object, so it does not lead to "leaked" statistics
entries.
For this to work, functions creating / dropping functions / relations /
subscriptions need to call into pgstat. For subscriptions this was already
done when dropping subscriptions, via pgstat_report_subscription_drop() (now
renamed to pgstat_drop_subscription()).
This commit does not actually drop stats yet, it just provides the
infrastructure. It is however a largely independent piece of infrastructure,
so committing it separately makes sense.

With the introduction of PgStat_Kind PgStat_Single_Reset_Type,
PgStat_Shared_Reset_Target don't make sense anymore. Replace them with
PgStat_Kind.
Instead of having dedicated reset functions for different kinds of stats, use
two generic helper routines (one to reset all stats of a kind, one to reset
one stats entry).
A number of reset functions were named pgstat_reset_*_counter(), despite
affecting multiple counters. The generic helper routines get rid of
pgstat_reset_single_counter(), pgstat_reset_subscription_counter().
Rename pgstat_reset_slru_counter(), pgstat_reset_replslot_counter() to
pgstat_reset_slru(), pgstat_reset_replslot() respectively, and have them only
deal with a single SLRU/slot. Resetting all SLRUs/slots goes through the
generic pgstat_reset_of_kind().
Previously pg_stat_reset_replication_slot() used SearchNamedReplicationSlot()
to check if a slot exists. API wise it seems better to move that to
pgstat_replslot.c.
This is done separately from the - quite large - shared memory statistics
patch to make review easier.
