This opens the possibility to define keys for more types of statistics
kinds in PgStat_HashKey, the first case being 8-byte query IDs for
statistics like pg_stat_statements.
This increases the size of PgStat_HashKey from 12 to 16 bytes, while
PgStatShared_HashEntry, entry stored in the dshash for pgstats, keeps
the same size due to alignment.
xl_xact_stats_item, that tracks the stats items to drop in commit WAL
records, is increased from 12 to 16 bytes. Note that individual chunks
in commit WAL records should be multiples of sizeof(int), hence 8-byte
object IDs are stored as two uint32, based on a suggestion from Heikki
Linnakangas.
While on it, the field of PgStat_HashKey is renamed from "objoid" to
"objid", as for some stats kinds this field does not refer to OIDs but
just IDs, like for replication slot stats.
This commit bumps the following format variables:
- PGSTAT_FILE_FORMAT_ID, as PgStat_HashKey is written to the stats file
for non-serialized stats kinds in the dshash table.
- XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC for the changes in xl_xact_stats_item.
- Catalog version, for the SQL function pg_stat_have_stats().

Since we introduced unlogged sequences in v15, identity sequences
have defaulted to having the same persistence as their owning table.
However, it is possible to change that with ALTER SEQUENCE, and
pg_dump tries to preserve the logged-ness of sequences when it doesn't
match (as indeed it wouldn't for an unlogged table from before v15).
The fly in the ointment is that ALTER SEQUENCE SET [UN]LOGGED fails
in binary-upgrade mode, because it needs to assign a new relfilenode
which we cannot permit in that mode. Thus, trying to pg_upgrade a
database containing a mismatching identity sequence failed.
To fix, add syntax to ADD/ALTER COLUMN GENERATED AS IDENTITY to allow
the sequence's persistence to be set correctly at creation, and use
that instead of ALTER SEQUENCE SET [UN]LOGGED in pg_dump. (I tried to
make SET [UN]LOGGED work without any pg_dump modifications, but that
seems too fragile to be a desirable answer. This way should be
markedly faster anyhow.)
In passing, document the previously-undocumented SEQUENCE NAME option
that pg_dump also relies on for identity sequences; I see no value
in trying to pretend it doesn't exist.

Add WITHOUT OVERLAPS clause to PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE constraints.
These are backed by GiST indexes instead of B-tree indexes, since they
are essentially exclusion constraints with = for the scalar parts of
the key and && for the temporal part.
(previously committed as 46a0cd4cefb, reverted by 46a0cd4cefb; the new
part is this:)
Because 'empty' && 'empty' is false, the temporal PK/UQ constraint
allowed duplicates, which is confusing to users and breaks internal
expectations. For instance, when GROUP BY checks functional
dependencies on the PK, it allows selecting other columns from the
table, but in the presence of duplicate keys you could get the value
from any of their rows. So we need to forbid empties.
This all means that at the moment we can only support ranges and
multiranges for temporal PK/UQs, unlike the original patch (above).
Documentation and tests for this are added. But this could
conceivably be extended by introducing some more general support for
the notion of "empty" for other types.

When building a JSON object, the code builds a hash table of keys, to
allow checking if the keys are unique. The uniqueness check and adding
the new key happens in json_unique_check_key(), but this assumes the
pointer to the key remains valid.
Unfortunately, two places passed pointers to keys in a buffer, while
also appending more data (additional key/value pairs) to the buffer.
With enough data the buffer is resized by enlargeStringInfo(), which
calls repalloc(), invalidating the earlier key pointers.
Due to this the uniqueness check may fail with both false negatives and
false positives, producing JSON objects with duplicate keys or failing
to produce a perfectly valid JSON object.
This affects multiple functions that enforce uniqueness of keys, all
introduced in PG16 with the new SQL/JSON:
- json_object_agg_unique / jsonb_object_agg_unique
- json_object / jsonb_objectagg
Existing regression tests did not detect the issue, simply because the
initial buffer size is 1024 and the objects were small enough not to
require the repalloc.
With a sufficiently large object, AddressSanitizer reported the access
to invalid memory immediately. So would valgrind, of course.
Fixed by copying the key into the hash table memory context, and adding
regression tests with enough data to repalloc the buffer. Backpatch to
16, where the functions were introduced.

Also, it seems that libxml2 may add a trailing newline when working

When generating window_pathkeys, distinct_pathkeys, or sort_pathkeys,
we failed to realize that the grouping/ordering expressions might be
nullable by grouping sets. As a result, we may incorrectly deem that
the PathKeys are redundant by EquivalenceClass processing and thus
remove them from the pathkeys list. That would lead to wrong results
in some cases.
To fix this issue, we mark the grouping expressions nullable by
grouping sets if that is the case. If the grouping expression is a
Var or PlaceHolderVar or constructed from those, we can just add the
RT index of the RTE_GROUP RTE to the existing nullingrels field(s);
otherwise we have to add a PlaceHolderVar to carry on the nullingrel
bit.
However, we have to manually remove this nullingrel bit from
expressions in various cases where these expressions are logically
below the grouping step, such as when we generate groupClause pathkeys
for grouping sets, or when we generate PathTarget for initial input to
grouping nodes.
Furthermore, in set_upper_references, the targetlist and quals of an
Agg node should have nullingrels that include the effects of the
grouping step, ie they will have nullingrels equal to the input
Vars/PHVs' nullingrels plus the nullingrel bit that references the
grouping RTE. In order to perform exact nullingrels matches, we also
need to manually remove this nullingrel bit.

If there are subqueries in the grouping expressions, each of these
subqueries in the targetlist and HAVING clause is expanded into
distinct SubPlan nodes. As a result, only one of these SubPlan nodes
would be converted to reference to the grouping key column output by
the Agg node; others would have to get evaluated afresh. This is not
efficient, and with grouping sets this can cause wrong results issues
in cases where they should go to NULL because they are from the wrong
grouping set. Furthermore, during re-evaluation, these SubPlan nodes
might use nulled column values from grouping sets, which is not
correct.
This issue is not limited to subqueries. For other types of
expressions that are part of grouping items, if they are transformed
into another form during preprocessing, they may fail to match lower
target items. This can also lead to wrong results with grouping sets.
To fix this issue, we introduce a new kind of RTE representing the
output of the grouping step, with columns that are the Vars or
expressions being grouped on. In the parser, we replace the grouping
expressions in the targetlist and HAVING clause with Vars referencing
this new RTE, so that the output of the parser directly expresses the
semantic requirement that the grouping expressions be gotten from the
grouping output rather than computed some other way. In the planner,
we first preprocess all the columns of this new RTE and then replace
any Vars in the targetlist and HAVING clause that reference this new
RTE with the underlying grouping expressions, so that we will have
only one instance of a SubPlan node for each subquery contained in the
grouping expressions.

SPI_connect/SPI_connect_ext have not returned any value other than
SPI_OK_CONNECT since commit 1833f1a1c in v10; any errors are thrown
via ereport. (The most likely failure is out-of-memory, which has
always been thrown that way, so callers had better be prepared for
such errors.) This makes it somewhat pointless to check these
functions' result, and some callers within our code haven't been
bothering; indeed, the only usage example within spi.sgml doesn't
bother. So it's likely that the omission has propagated into
extensions too.
Hence, let's standardize on not checking, and document the return
value as historical, while not actually changing these functions'
behavior. (The original proposal was to change their return type
to "void", but that would needlessly break extensions that are
conforming to the old practice.) This saves a small amount of
boilerplate code in a lot of places.

Since commit 2549f0661, we reject an identifier immediately following
a numeric literal (without separating whitespace), because that risks
ambiguity with hex/octal/binary integers. However, that patch used
token patterns like "{integer}{ident_start}", which is problematic
because {ident_start} matches only a single byte. If the first
character after the integer is a multibyte character, this ends up
with flex reporting an error message that includes a partial multibyte
character. That can cause assorted bad-encoding problems downstream,
both in the report to the client and in the postmaster log file.
To fix, use {identifier} not {ident_start} in the "junk" token
patterns, so that they will match complete multibyte characters.
This seems generally better user experience quite aside from the
encoding problem: for "123abc" the error message will now say that
the error appeared at or near "123abc" instead of "123a".

When generating paths for the ORDER BY clause, one thing we need to
ensure is that the output paths project the correct final_target. To
achieve this, in create_ordered_paths, we compare the pathtarget of
each generated path with the given 'target', and add a post-sort
projection step if the two targets do not match.
Currently we perform a simple pointer comparison between the two
targets. It turns out that this is not sufficient. Each sorted_path
generated in create_ordered_paths initially projects the correct
target required by the preceding steps of sort. If it is the same
pointer as sort_input_target, pointer comparison suffices, because
sort_input_target is always identical to final_target when no
post-sort projection is needed.
However, sorted_path's initial pathtarget may not be the same pointer
as sort_input_target, because in apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths, if
the target to be applied has the same expressions as the existing
reltarget, we only inject the sortgroupref info into the existing
pathtargets, rather than create new projection paths. As a result,
pointer comparison in create_ordered_paths is not reliable.
Instead, we can compare PathTarget.exprs to determine whether a
projection step is needed. If the expressions match, we can be
confident that a post-sort projection is not required.
It could be argued that this change adds extra check cost each time we
decide whether a post-sort projection is needed. However, as
explained in apply_scanjoin_target_to_paths, by avoiding the creation
of projection paths, we save effort both immediately and at plan
creation time. This, I think, justifies the extra check cost.
There are two ensuing plan changes in the regression tests, but they
look reasonable and are exactly what we are fixing here. So no
additional test cases are added.
No backpatch as this could result in plan changes.

When creating merge or hash join plans in createplan.c, the merge or
hash clauses may need to get commuted to ensure that the outer var is
on the left and the inner var is on the right if they are not already
in the expected form. This requires that their operators have
commutators. Failing to find a commutator at this stage would result
in 'ERROR: could not find commutator for operator xxx', with no
opportunity to select an alternative plan.
Typically, this is not an issue because mergejoinable or hashable
operators are expected to always have valid commutators. But in some
artificial cases this assumption may not hold true. Therefore, here
in this patch we check the validity of commutators for clauses in the
form "inner op outer" when selecting mergejoin/hash clauses, and
consider a clause unusable for the current pair of outer and inner
relations if it lacks a commutator.
There are not (and should not be) any such operators built into
Postgres that are mergejoinable or hashable but have no commutators;
so we leverage the alias type 'int8alias1' created in equivclass.sql
to build the test case. This is why the test case is included in
equivclass.sql rather than in join.sql.
Although this is arguably a bug fix, it cannot be reproduced without
installing an incomplete opclass, which is unlikely to happen in
practice, so no back-patch.

that avoided wrapping a PlaceHolderVar around a pulled-up
subquery output expression if the expression could be proven
to go to NULL anyway (because it contained Vars or PHVs of the
pulled-up relation and did not contain non-strict constructs).
But removing that logic turns out to cause performance regressions
in some cases, because the extra PHV blocks subexpression folding,
and will do so even if outer-join reduction later turns it into a
no-op with no phnullingrels bits. This can for example prevent
an expression from being matched to an index.
The reason for always adding a PHV was to ensure we had someplace
to put the varnullingrels marker bits of the Var being replaced.
However, it turns out we can optimize in exactly the same cases that
the previous code did, because we can instead attach the needed
varnullingrels bits to the contained Var(s)/PHV(s).
This is not a complete solution --- it would be even better if we
could remove PHVs after reducing them to no-ops. It doesn't look
practical to back-patch such an improvement, but this change seems
safe and at least gets rid of the performance-regression cases.
Per complaint from Nikhil Raj. Back-patch to v16 where the
problem appeared.

This test case turns out to depend on the assumption that a non-Var
subquery output that's underneath an outer join will always get
wrapped in a PlaceHolderVar. But that behavior causes performance
regressions in some cases compared to what happened before v16.
The next commit will avoid inserting a PHV in the same cases where
pre-v16 did, and that causes get_memoized_path to not detect that
a memoize plan could be used.
Commit this separately, in hopes that we can restore the test after
making get_memoized_path smarter. (It's failing to find memoize
plans in adjacent cases where no PHV was ever inserted, so there
is definitely room for improvement there.)

This commit removes log_cnt from the tuple returned by the SQL function.
This field is an internal counter that tracks when a WAL record should
be generated for a sequence, and it is reset each time the sequence is
restored or recovered. It is not necessary to rebuild the sequence DDL
commands for pg_dump and pg_upgrade where this function is used. The
field can still be queried with a scan of the "table" created
under-the-hood for a sequence.
Issue noticed while hacking on a feature that can rely on this new
function rather than pg_sequence_last_value(), aimed at making sequence
computation more easily pluggable.
Bump catalog version.

If an ORDER BY item in SELECT is a bare identifier, the parser
first seeks it as an output column name of the SELECT (for SQL92
compatibility). However, ruleutils.c is expecting the SQL99
interpretation where such a name is an input column name. So it's
possible to produce an incorrect display of a view in the (admittedly
pretty ill-advised) case where some other column is renamed in the
SELECT output list to match an ORDER BY column.
This can be fixed by table-qualifying such names in the dumped
view text. To avoid cluttering less-ill-advised queries, we'd
like to do so only when there's an actual name conflict.
That requires passing the current get_query_def call's resultDesc
parameter down to get_variable, so that it can determine what
the output column names are. In hopes of reducing rather than
increasing notational clutter in ruleutils.c, I moved that value
into the deparse_context struct and removed it from the parameter
lists of get_query_def's other subroutines.
I made a few other cosmetic changes while at it:
* Likewise move the colNamesVisible parameter into deparse_context.
* Rename deparse_context's windowTList field to targetList,
since it's no longer used only in connection with WINDOW clauses.
* Replace the special_exprkind field with a bool inGroupBy,
since that was all it was being used for, and the apparent
flexibility of storing a ParseExprKind proved to be illusory.
(We need a separate varInOrderBy field to make this patch work.)
* Remove useless save/restore logic in get_select_query_def.
In principle, this bug is quite old. However, it seems unreachable
before 1b4d280ea, because before that the presence of "new" and "old"
entries in a view's rangetable caused us to always table-qualify every
Var reference in dumped views. Hence, back-patch to v16 where that
came in.
Per bug #18589 from Quynh Tran.
