640772c6df Fix macro name for io_uring_queue_init_mem check.
Commit f54af9f2679d added a check for
io_uring_queue_init_mem(). However, it used the macro name
HAVE_LIBURING_QUEUE_INIT_MEM in both meson.build and the C code, while
the Autotools build script defined HAVE_IO_URING_QUEUE_INIT_MEM. As a
result, the optimization was never enabled in builds configured with
Autotools, as the C code checked for the wrong macro name.

This commit changes the macro name to HAVE_IO_URING_QUEUE_INIT_MEM in
meson.build and the C code. This matches the actual function
name (io_uring_queue_init_mem), following the standard HAVE_<FUNCTION>
convention.

Backpatch to 18, where the macro was introduced.

6377b17257 jit: Fix jit_profiling_support when unavailable.
jit_profiling_support=true captures profile data for Linux perf.  On
other platforms, LLVMCreatePerfJITEventListener() returns NULL and the
attempt to register the listener would crash.

Fix by ignoring the setting in that case.  The documentation already
says that it only has an effect if perf support is present, and we
already did the same for older LLVM versions that lacked support.

No field reports, unsurprisingly for an obscure developer-oriented
setting.  Noticed in passing while working on commit 1a28b4b4.

fd7c86cfaf Fix a race condition in updating procArray->replication_slot_xmin.
Previously, ReplicationSlotsComputeRequiredXmin() computed the oldest
xmin across all slots without holding ProcArrayLock (when
already_locked is false), acquiring the lock just before updating the
replication slot xmin.

This could lead to a race condition: if a backend created a new slot
and updates the global replication slot xmin, another backend
concurrently running ReplicationSlotsComputeRequiredXmin() could
overwrite that update with an invalid or stale value. This happens
because the concurrent backend might have computed the aggregate xmin
before the new slot was accounted for, but applied the update after
the new slot had already updated the global value.

In the reported failure, a walsender for an apply worker computed
InvalidTransactionId as the oldest xmin and overwrote a valid
replication slot xmin value computed by a walsender for a tablesync
worker. Consequently, the tablesync worker computed a transaction ID
via GetOldestSafeDecodingTransactionId() effectively without
considering the replication slot xmin. This led to the error "cannot
build an initial slot snapshot as oldest safe xid %u follows
snapshot's xmin %u", which was an assertion failure prior to commit
240e0dbacd3.

To fix this, we acquire ReplicationSlotControlLock in exclusive mode
during slot creation to perform the initial update of the slot
xmin. In ReplicationSlotsComputeRequiredXmin(), we hold
ReplicationSlotControlLock in shared mode until the global slot xmin
is updated in ProcArraySetReplicationSlotXmin(). This prevents
concurrent computations and updates of the global xmin by other
backends during the initial slot xmin update process, while still
permitting concurrent calls to ReplicationSlotsComputeRequiredXmin().

Backpatch to all supported versions.

c5e1281fd8 jit: Remove -Wno-deprecated-declarations in 18+.

any new deprecation warnings that arrive in future version of LLVM.

Older branches continued to use functions marked deprecated in LLVM 14
and 15 (ie switched to the newer functions only for LLVM 16+), as a
precaution against unforeseen compatibility problems with bitcode
already shipped.  In those branches, the comment about warning
suppression is updated to explain that situation better.  In theory we
could suppress warnings only for LLVM 14 and 15 specifically, but that

7e9f852a79 Ignore PlaceHolderVars when looking up statistics
When looking up statistical data about an expression, we failed to
look through PlaceHolderVar nodes, treating them as opaque.  This
could prevent us from matching an expression to base columns, index
expressions, or extended statistics, as examine_variable() relies on
strict structural matching.

As a result, queries involving PlaceHolderVar nodes often fell back to
default selectivity estimates, potentially leading to poor plan
choices.

This patch updates examine_variable() to strip PlaceHolderVars before
analysis.  This is safe during estimation because PlaceHolderVars are
transparent for the purpose of statistics lookup: they do not alter
the value distribution of the underlying expression.

To minimize performance overhead on this hot path, a lightweight
walker first checks for the presence of PlaceHolderVars.  The more
expensive mutator is invoked only when necessary.

There is one ensuing plan change in the regression tests, which is
expected and demonstrates the fix: the rowcount estimate becomes much
more accurate with this patch.

Back-patch to v18.  Although this issue exists before that, changes in
this version made it common enough to notice.  Given the lack of field
reports for older versions, I am not back-patching further.

b4cf744205 Strip PlaceHolderVars from index operands
When pulling up a subquery, we may need to wrap its targetlist items
in PlaceHolderVars to enforce separate identity or as a result of
outer joins.  However, this causes any upper-level WHERE clauses
referencing these outputs to contain PlaceHolderVars, which prevents
indxpath.c from recognizing that they could be matched to index
columns or index expressions, potentially affecting the planner's
ability to use indexes.

To fix, explicitly strip PlaceHolderVars from index operands.  A
PlaceHolderVar appearing in a relation-scan-level expression is
effectively a no-op.  Nevertheless, to play it safe, we strip only
PlaceHolderVars that are not marked nullable.

The stripping is performed recursively to handle cases where
PlaceHolderVars are nested or interleaved with other node types.  To
minimize performance impact, we first use a lightweight walker to
check for the presence of strippable PlaceHolderVars.  The expensive
mutator is invoked only if a candidate is found, avoiding unnecessary
memory allocation and tree copying in the common case where no
PlaceHolderVars are present.

this version made it common enough to notice.  Given the lack of field

382ce9cb71 Fix planner error with SRFs and grouping sets
If there are any SRFs in a PathTarget, we must separate it into
SRF-computing and SRF-free targets.  This is because the executor can
only handle SRFs that appear at the top level of the targetlist of a
ProjectSet plan node.

If we find a subexpression that matches an expression already computed
in the previous plan level, we should treat it like a Var and should
not split it again.  setrefs.c will later replace the expression with
a Var referencing the subplan output.

However, when processing the grouping target for grouping sets, the
planner can fail to recognize that an expression is already computed
in the scan/join phase.  The root cause is a mismatch in the
nullingrels bits.  Expressions in the grouping target carry the
grouping nulling bit in their nullingrels to indicate that they can be
nulled by the grouping step.  However, the corresponding expressions
in the scan/join target do not have these bits.

As a result, the exact match check in list_member() fails, leading the
planner to incorrectly believe that the expression needs to be
re-evaluated from its arguments, which are often not available in the
subplan.  This can lead to planner errors such as "variable not found
in subplan target list".

To fix, ignore the grouping nulling bit when checking whether an
expression from the grouping target is available in the pre-grouping
input target.  This aligns with the matching logic in setrefs.c.

2f7ffe124a Don't advance origin during apply failure.
The logical replication parallel apply worker could incorrectly advance
the origin progress during an error or failed apply. This behavior risks
transaction loss because such transactions will not be resent by the
server.

Commit 3f28b2fcac addressed a similar issue for both the apply worker and
the table sync worker by registering a before_shmem_exit callback to reset
origin information. This prevents the worker from advancing the origin
during transaction abortion on shutdown. This patch applies the same fix
to the parallel apply worker, ensuring consistent behavior across all
worker types.

As with 3f28b2fcac, we are backpatching through version 16, since parallel
apply mode was introduced there and the issue only occurs when changes are
applied before the transaction end record (COMMIT or ABORT) is received.

3e3a80f62c Fix bug in following update chain when locking a heap tuple
After waiting for a concurrent updater to finish, heap_lock_tuple()
followed the update chain to lock all tuple versions. However, when
stepping from the initial tuple to the next one, it failed to check
that the next tuple's XMIN matches the initial tuple's XMAX. That's an
important check whenever following an update chain, and the recursive
part that follows the chain did it, but the initial step missed it.
Without the check, if the updating transaction aborts, the updated
tuple is vacuumed away and replaced by an unrelated tuple, the
unrelated tuple might get incorrectly locked.

b07c326192 Fix orphaned origin in shared memory after DROP SUBSCRIPTION
Since ce0fdbfe9722, a replication slot and an origin are created by each
tablesync worker, whose information is stored in both a catalog and
shared memory (once the origin is set up in the latter case).  The
transaction where the origin is created is the same as the one that runs
the initial COPY, with the catalog state of the origin becoming visible
for other sessions only once the COPY transaction has committed.  The
catalog state is coupled with a state in shared memory, initialized at
the same time as the origin created in the catalogs.  Note that the
transaction doing the initial data sync can take a long time, time that
depends on the amount of data to transfer from a publication node to its
subscriber node.

Now, when a DROP SUBSCRIPTION is executed, all its workers are stopped
with the origins removed.  The removal of each origin relies on a
catalog lookup.  A worker still running the initial COPY would fail its
transaction, with the catalog state of the origin rolled back while the
shared memory state remains around.  The session running the DROP
SUBSCRIPTION should be in charge of cleaning up the catalog and the
shared memory state, but as there is no data in the catalogs the shared
memory state is not removed.  This issue would leave orphaned origin
data in shared memory, leading to a confusing state as it would still
show up in pg_replication_origin_status.  Note that this shared memory
data is sticky, being flushed on disk in replorigin_checkpoint at
checkpoint.  This prevents other origins from reusing a slot position
in the shared memory data.

To address this problem, the commit moves the creation of the origin at
the end of the transaction that precedes the one executing the initial
COPY, making the origin immediately visible in the catalogs for other
sessions, giving DROP SUBSCRIPTION a way to know about it.  A different
solution would have been to clean up the shared memory state using an
abort callback within the tablesync worker.  The solution of this commit
is more consistent with the apply worker that creates an origin in a
short transaction.

A test is added in the subscription test 004_sync.pl, which was able to
display the problem.  The test fails when this commit is reverted.

b863d8d87f Add guard to prevent recursive memory context logging.
Previously, if memory context logging was triggered repeatedly and
rapidly while a previous request was still being processed, it could
result in recursive calls to ProcessLogMemoryContextInterrupt().
This could lead to infinite recursion and potentially crash the process.

This commit adds a guard to prevent such recursion.
If ProcessLogMemoryContextInterrupt() is already in progress and
logging memory contexts, subsequent calls will exit immediately,
avoiding unintended recursive calls.

While this scenario is unlikely in practice, it's not impossible.
This change adds a safety check to prevent such failures.

was launched for the raw_connect_works() check lingered for a while,
and exited only later during the test. When it exited, it released a
connection slot, when the test expected all the slots to be in use at
that time.

The 002_connection_limits.pl test had a similar issue: if the backend
launched for safe_psql() in the test initialization lingers around, it
uses up a connection slot during the test, messing up the test's
connection counting. I haven't seen that in the CI, but when I added a
"sleep(1);" to proc_exit(), the test failed.

To make the tests more robust, restart the server to ensure that the
lingering backends doesn't interfere with the later test steps.

In the passing, fix a bogus test name.

806555e300 ltree: fix case-insensitive matching.
Previously, ltree_prefix_eq_ci() used lowercasing with the default
collation; while ltree_crc32_sz() used tolower() directly. These were
equivalent only if the default collation provider was libc and the
encoding was single-byte.

Change both to use casefolding with the default collation.

Backpatch through 18, where the casefolding APIs were introduced. The
bug exists in earlier versions, but would require some adaptation.

A REINDEX is required for ltree indexes where the database default
collation is not libc.

57df5ab804 Switch memory contexts in ReinitializeParallelDSM.
We already do this in CreateParallelContext, InitializeParallelDSM, and
LaunchParallelWorkers. I suspect the reason why the matching logic was
omitted from ReinitializeParallelDSM is that I failed to realize that
any memory allocation was happening here -- but shm_mq_attach does
allocate, which could result in a shm_mq_handle being allocated in a
shorter-lived context than the ParallelContext which points to it.

That could result in a crash if the shorter-lived context is freed
before the parallel context is destroyed. As far as I am currently
aware, there is no way to reach a crash using only code that is
present in core PostgreSQL, but extensions could potentially trip
over this. Fixing this in the back-branches appears low-risk, so
back-patch to all supported versions.

68ebdf2b07 Fail recovery when missing redo checkpoint record without backup_label
This commit adds an extra check at the beginning of recovery to ensure
that the redo record of a checkpoint exists before attempting WAL
replay, logging a PANIC if the redo record referenced by the checkpoint
record could not be found.  This is the same level of failure as when a
checkpoint record is missing.  This check is added when a cluster is
started without a backup_label, after retrieving its checkpoint record.
The redo LSN used for the check is retrieved from the checkpoint record
successfully read.

In the case where a backup_label exists, the startup process already
fails if the redo record cannot be found after reading a checkpoint
record at the beginning of recovery.

Previously, the presence of the redo record was not checked.  If the
redo and checkpoint records were located on different WAL segments, it
would be possible to miss a entire range of WAL records that should have
been replayed but were just ignored.  The consequences of missing the
redo record depend on the version dealt with, these becoming worse the
older the version used:
- On HEAD, v18 and v17, recovery fails with a pointer dereference at the
beginning of the redo loop, as the redo record is expected but cannot be
found.  These versions are good students, because we detect a failure
before doing anything, even if the failure is misleading in the shape of
a segmentation fault, giving no information that the redo record is
missing.
- In v16 and v15, problems show at the end of recovery within
FinishWalRecovery(), the startup process using a buggy LSN to decide
from where to start writing WAL.  The cluster gets corrupted, still it
is noisy about it.
- v14 and older versions are worse: a cluster gets corrupted but it is
entirely silent about the matter.  The redo record missing causes the
startup process to skip entirely recovery, because a missing record is
the same as not redo being required at all.  This leads to data loss, as
everything is missed between the redo record and the checkpoint record.

Note that I have tested that down to 9.4, reproducing the issue with a
version of the author's reproducer slightly modified.  The code is wrong
since at least 9.2, but I did not look at the exact point of origin.

This problem has been found by debugging a cluster where the WAL segment
including the redo segment was missing due to an operator error, leading
to a crash, based on an investigation in v15.

Requesting archive recovery with the creation of a recovery.signal or
a standby.signal even without a backup_label would mitigate the issue:
if the record cannot be found in pg_wal/, the missing segment can be
retrieved with a restore_command when checking that the redo record
exists.  This was already the case without this commit, where recovery
would re-fetch the WAL segment that includes the redo record.  The check
introduced by this commit makes the segment to be retrieved earlier to
make sure that the redo record can be found.

On HEAD, the code will be slightly changed in a follow-up commit to not
rely on a PANIC, to include a test able to emulate the original problem.
This is a minimal backpatchable fix, kept separated for clarity.

Several strings that should have been translated as they passed through
libpq_gettext were not actually being pulled into the translation files,
because I hadn't directly wrapped them in one of the GETTEXT_TRIGGERS.

Move the responsibility for calling libpq_gettext() to the code that
sets actx->errctx. Doing the same in report_type_mismatch() would result
in double-translation, so mark those strings with gettext_noop()
instead. And wrap two ternary operands with gettext_noop(), even though
they're already in one of the triggers, since xgettext sees only the
first.

Finally, fe-auth-oauth.c was missing from nls.mk, so none of that file
was being translated at all. Add it now.

1756b9f616 Fix failures with cross-version pg_upgrade tests
Buildfarm members skimmer and crake have reported that pg_upgrade
running from v18 fails due to the changes of d52c24b0f808, with the
expectations that the objects removed in the test module
injection_points should still be present post upgrades, but the test
module does not have them anymore.

The origin of the issue is that the following test modules depend on
injection_points, but they do not drop the extension once the tests
finish, leaving its traces in the dumps used for the upgrades:
- gin, down to v17
- typcache, down to v18
- nbtree, HEAD-only
Test modules have no upgrade requirements, as they are used only for..
Tests, so there is no point in keeping them around.

An alternative solution would be to drop the databases created by these
modules in AdjustUpgrade.pm, but the solution of this commit to drop the
extension is simpler.  Note that there would be a catch if using a
solution based on AdjustUpgrade.pm as the database name used for the
test runs differs between configure and meson:
- configure relies on USE_MODULE_DB for the database name unicity, that
would build a database name based on the *first* entry of REGRESS, that
lists all the SQL tests.
- meson relies on a "name" field.

For example, for the test module "gin", the regression database is named
"regression_gin" under meson, while it is more complex for configure, as
of "contrib_regression_gin_incomplete_splits".  So a AdjustUpgrade.pm
would need a set of DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS to solve this issue, to cope
with each build system.

The failure has been caused by d52c24b0f808, and the problem can happen
with upgrade dumps from v17 and v18 to HEAD.  This problem is not
currently reachable in the back-branches, but it could be possible that
a future change in injection_points in stable branches invalidates this
theory, so this commit is applied down to v17 in the test modules that
matter.

Per discussion with Tom Lane and Heikki Linnakangas.

bebb281b08 Fix O_CLOEXEC flag handling in Windows port.
PostgreSQL's src/port/open.c has always set bInheritHandle = TRUE
when opening files on Windows, making all file descriptors inheritable
by child processes.  This meant the O_CLOEXEC flag, added to many call
sites by commit 1da569ca1f (v16), was silently ignored.

The original commit included a comment suggesting that our open()
replacement doesn't create inheritable handles, but it was a mis-
understanding of the code path.  In practice, the code was creating
inheritable handles in all cases.

This hasn't caused widespread problems because most child processes
(archive_command, COPY PROGRAM, etc.) operate on file paths passed as
arguments rather than inherited file descriptors.  Even if a child
wanted to use an inherited handle, it would need to learn the numeric
handle value, which isn't passed through our IPC mechanisms.

Nonetheless, the current behavior is wrong.  It violates documented
O_CLOEXEC semantics, contradicts our own code comments, and makes
PostgreSQL behave differently on Windows than on Unix.  It also creates
potential issues with future code or security auditing tools.

To fix, define O_CLOEXEC to _O_NOINHERIT in master, previously used by
O_DSYNC.  We use different values in the back branches to preserve
existing values.  In pgwin32_open_handle() we set bInheritHandle
according to whether O_CLOEXEC is specified, for the same atomic
semantics as POSIX in multi-threaded programs that create processes.

6c61c69d58 Fix LOCK_TIMEOUT handling in slotsync worker.
Previously, the slotsync worker relied on SIGINT for graceful shutdown
during promotion. However, SIGINT is also used by the LOCK_TIMEOUT handler
to cancel queries. Since the slotsync worker can lock catalog tables while
parsing libpq tuples, this overlap caused it to ignore LOCK_TIMEOUT
signals and potentially wait indefinitely on locks.

This patch replaces the slotsync worker's SIGINT handler with
StatementCancelHandler to correctly process query-cancel interrupts.
Additionally, the startup process now uses SIGUSR1 to signal the slotsync
worker to stop during promotion. The worker exits after detecting that the
shared memory flag stopSignaled is set.

d3ceb20846 Prevent invalidation of newly created replication slots.
A race condition could cause a newly created replication slot to become
invalidated between WAL reservation and a checkpoint.

Previously, if the required WAL was removed, we retried the reservation
process. However, the slot could still be invalidated before the retry if
the WAL was not yet removed but the checkpoint advanced the redo pointer
beyond the slot's intended restart LSN and computed the minimum LSN that
needs to be preserved for the slots.

The fix is to acquire an exclusive lock on ReplicationSlotAllocationLock
during WAL reservation to serialize WAL reservation and checkpoint's
minimum restart_lsn computation. This ensures that, if WAL reservation
occurs first, the checkpoint waits until restart_lsn is updated before
removing WAL. If the checkpoint runs first, subsequent WAL reservations
pick a position at or after the latest checkpoint's redo pointer.

We can't use the same fix for branch 17 and prior because commit
2090edc6f3 changed to compute to the minimum restart_LSN among slot's at
the beginning of checkpoint (or restart point). The fix for 17 and prior
branches is under discussion and will be committed separately.

e46041fd97 Set next multixid's offset when creating a new multixid
With this commit, the next multixid's offset will always be set on the
offsets page, by the time that a backend might try to read it, so we
no longer need the waiting mechanism with the condition variable. In
other words, this eliminates "corner case 2" mentioned in the
comments.

The waiting mechanism was broken in a few scenarios:

- When nextMulti was advanced without WAL-logging the next
  multixid. For example, if a later multixid was already assigned and
  WAL-logged before the previous one was WAL-logged, and then the
  server crashed. In that case the next offset would never be set in
  the offsets SLRU, and a query trying to read it would get stuck
  waiting for it. Same thing could happen if pg_resetwal was used to
  forcibly advance nextMulti.

- In hot standby mode, a deadlock could happen where one backend waits
  for the next multixid assignment record, but WAL replay is not
  advancing because of a recovery conflict with the waiting backend.

The old TAP test used carefully placed injection points to exercise
the old waiting code, but now that the waiting code is gone, much of
the old test is no longer relevant. Rewrite the test to reproduce the
IPC/MultixactCreation hang after crash recovery instead, and to verify
that previously recorded multixids stay readable.

Backpatch to all supported versions. In back-branches, we still need
to be able to read WAL that was generated before this fix, so in the
back-branches this includes a hack to initialize the next offsets page
when replaying XLOG_MULTIXACT_CREATE_ID for the last multixid on a
page. On 'master', bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC instead to indicate that the
WAL is not compatible.

4061992ea8 Update obsolete row compare preprocessing comments.

conditions involving an nbtree row comparison key following commits
f09816a0 and bd3f59fd: we can do so in simple cases involving IS NULL

likewise determine that a scan's qual is unsatisfiable given a row
compare whose first subkey's arg is NULL.  Update obsolete comments that
claimed that we merely copied row compares into the output key array
"without any editorialization".

Also update another _bt_preprocess_keys header comment paragraph: add a
parenthetical remark that points out that preprocessing will generate a
skip array for the preceding example qual.  That will ultimate lead to
preprocessing marking the example's lower-order y key required -- which
is exactly what the example supposes cannot happen.  Keep the original
comment, though, since it accurately describes the mechanical rules that
determine which keys get marked required in the absence of skip arrays
(which can occasionally still matter).  This fixes an oversight in

would rewrite those CTEs multiple times as RewriteQuery() recursed
into the product queries. In most cases that was harmless, because
RewriteQuery() is mostly idempotent. However, if the CTE involved
updating an always-generated column, it would trigger an error because
any subsequent rewrite would appear to be attempting to assign a
non-default value to the always-generated column.

This could perhaps be fixed by attempting to make RewriteQuery() fully
idempotent, but that looks quite tricky to achieve, and would probably
be quite fragile, given that more generated-column-type features might
be added in the future.

Instead, fix by arranging for RewriteQuery() to rewrite each CTE
exactly once (by tracking the number of CTEs already rewritten as it
recurses). This has the advantage of being simpler and more efficient,
but it does make RewriteQuery() dependent on the order in which
rewriteRuleAction() joins the CTE lists from the original query and
the rule action, so care must be taken if that is ever changed.

a212877dc7 Allow indexscans on partial hash indexes with implied quals.
Normally, if a WHERE clause is implied by the predicate of a partial
index, we drop that clause from the set of quals used with the index,
since it's redundant to test it if we're scanning that index.
However, if it's a hash index (or any !amoptionalkey index), this
could result in dropping all available quals for the index's first
key, preventing us from generating an indexscan.

It's fair to question the practical usefulness of this case.  Since
hash only supports equality quals, the situation could only arise
if the index's predicate is "WHERE indexkey = constant", implying
that the index contains only one hash value, which would make hash
a really poor choice of index type.  However, perhaps there are
other !amoptionalkey index AMs out there with which such cases are
more plausible.

To fix, just don't filter the candidate indexquals this way if
the index is !amoptionalkey.  That's a bit hokey because it may
result in testing quals we didn't need to test, but to do it
more accurately we'd have to redundantly identify which candidate
quals are actually usable with the index, something we don't know
at this early stage of planning.  Doesn't seem worth the effort.

15ba0702c1 Fix error reporting for SQL/JSON path type mismatches
transformJsonFuncExpr() used exprType()/exprLocation() on the
possibly coerced path expression, which could be NULL when
coercion to jsonpath failed, leading to "cache lookup failed
for type 0" errors.

Preserve the original expression node so that type and location
in the "must be of type jsonpath" error are reported correctly.
Add regression tests to cover these cases.
