cb2fd7eac2 Skip WAL for new relfilenodes, under wal_level=minimal.
Until now, only selected bulk operations (e.g. COPY) did this.  If a
given relfilenode received both a WAL-skipping COPY and a WAL-logged
operation (e.g. INSERT), recovery could lose tuples from the COPY.  See
src/backend/access/transam/README section "Skipping WAL for New
RelFileNode" for the new coding rules.  Maintainers of table access
methods should examine that section.

To maintain data durability, just before commit, we choose between an
fsync of the relfilenode and copying its contents to WAL.  A new GUC,
wal_skip_threshold, guides that choice.  If this change slows a workload
that creates small, permanent relfilenodes under wal_level=minimal, try
adjusting wal_skip_threshold.  Users setting a timeout on COMMIT may
need to adjust that timeout, and log_min_duration_statement analysis
will reflect time consumption moving to COMMIT from commands like COPY.

Internally, this requires a reliable determination of whether
RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction() would unlink a relation's
current relfilenode.  Introduce rd_firstRelfilenodeSubid.  Amend the
specification of rd_createSubid such that the field is zero when a new
rel has an old rd_node.  Make relcache.c retain entries for certain
dropped relations until end of transaction.

Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).  This introduces a new WAL
record type, XLOG_GIST_ASSIGN_LSN, without bumping XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC.  As
always, update standby systems before master systems.  This changes
sizeof(RelationData) and sizeof(IndexStmt), breaking binary
compatibility for affected extensions.  (The most recent commit to
affect the same class of extensions was
089e4d405d0f3b94c74a2c6a54357a84a681754b.)

85f6b49c2c Allow relation extension lock to conflict among parallel group members.
This is required as it is no safer for two related processes to extend the
same relation at a time than for unrelated processes to do the same.  We
don't acquire a heavyweight lock on any other object after relation
extension lock which means such a lock can never participate in the
deadlock cycle.  So, avoid checking wait edges from this lock.

This provides an infrastructure to allow parallel operations like insert,
copy, etc. which were earlier not possible as parallel group members won't
conflict for relation extension lock.

24e2885ee3 Introduce "anycompatible" family of polymorphic types.
This patch adds the pseudo-types anycompatible, anycompatiblearray,
anycompatiblenonarray, and anycompatiblerange.  They work much like
anyelement, anyarray, anynonarray, and anyrange respectively, except
that the actual input values need not match precisely in type.
Instead, if we can find a common supertype (using the same rules
as for UNION/CASE type resolution), then the parser automatically
promotes the input values to that type.  For example,
"myfunc(anycompatible, anycompatible)" can match a call with one
integer and one bigint argument, with the integer automatically
promoted to bigint.  With anyelement in the definition, the user
would have had to cast the integer explicitly.

The new types also provide a second, independent set of type variables
for function matching; thus with "myfunc(anyelement, anyelement,
anycompatible) returns anycompatible" the first two arguments are
constrained to be the same type, but the third can be some other
type, and the result has the type of the third argument.  The need
for more than one set of type variables was foreseen back when we
first invented the polymorphic types, but we never did anything
about it.

c314c147c0 Prepare to support non-tables in publications
This by itself doesn't change any functionality but prepares the way
for having relations other than base tables in publications.

Make arrangements for COPY handling the initial table sync.  For
non-tables we have to use COPY (SELECT ...) instead of directly
copying from the table, but then we have to take care to omit
generated columns from the column list.

Also, remove a hardcoded reference to relkind = 'r' and rely on the
publisher to send only what it can actually publish, which will be
correct even in future cross-version scenarios.

1d253bae57 Rename the recovery-related wait events.
This commit renames RecoveryWalAll and RecoveryWalStream wait events to
RecoveryWalStream and RecoveryRetrieveRetryInterval, respectively,
in order to make the names and what they are more consistent. For example,
previously RecoveryWalAll was reported as a wait event while the recovery
was waiting for WAL from a stream, and which was confusing because the name
was very different from the situation where the wait actually could happen.

The names of macro variables for those wait events also are renamed
accordingly.

This commit also changes the category of RecoveryRetrieveRetryInterval to
Timeout from Activity because the wait event is reported while waiting based
on wal_retrieve_retry_interval.

1f39bce021 Disk-based Hash Aggregation.
While performing hash aggregation, track memory usage when adding new
groups to a hash table. If the memory usage exceeds work_mem, enter
"spill mode".

In spill mode, new groups are not created in the hash table(s), but
existing groups continue to be advanced if input tuples match. Tuples
that would cause a new group to be created are instead spilled to a
logical tape to be processed later.

The tuples are spilled in a partitioned fashion. When all tuples from
the outer plan are processed (either by advancing the group or
spilling the tuple), finalize and emit the groups from the hash
table. Then, create new batches of work from the spilled partitions,
and select one of the saved batches and process it (possibly spilling
recursively).

15ef6ff4b9 Assert that we don't acquire a heavyweight lock on another object after
relation extension lock.

The only exception to the rule is that we can try to acquire the same
relation extension lock more than once.  This is allowed as we are not
creating any new lock for this case.  This restriction implies that the
relation extension lock won't ever participate in the deadlock cycle
because we can never wait for any other heavyweight lock after acquiring
this lock.

Such a restriction is okay for relation extension locks as unlike other
heavyweight locks these are not held till the transaction end.  These are
taken for a short duration to extend a particular relation and then
released.

e6c178b5b7 Refactor our checks for valid function and aggregate signatures.
pg_proc.c and pg_aggregate.c had near-duplicate copies of the logic
to decide whether a function or aggregate's signature is legal.
This seems like a bad thing even without the problem that the
upcoming "anycompatible" patch would roughly double the complexity
of that logic.  Hence, refactor so that the rules are localized
in new subroutines supplied by parse_coerce.c.  (One could quibble
about just where to add that code, but putting it beside
enforce_generic_type_consistency seems not totally unreasonable.)

The fact that the rules are about to change would mandate some
changes in the wording of the associated error messages in any case.
I ended up spelling things out in a fairly literal fashion in the
errdetail messages, eg "A result of type anyelement requires at
least one input of type anyelement, anyarray, anynonarray, anyenum,
or anyrange."  Perhaps this is overkill, but once there's more than
one subgroup of polymorphic types, people might get confused by
more-abstract messages.

Use the new setting in heapam.c instead of the hard-coded formula
effective_io_concurrency + 10 introduced by commit 558a9165e08.  Go with
a default value of 10 for now, because it's a round number pretty close
to the value used for that existing case.

b09ff53667 Simplify the effective_io_concurrency setting.
The effective_io_concurrency GUC and equivalent tablespace option were
previously passed through a formula based on a theory about RAID
spindles and probabilities, to arrive at the number of pages to prefetch
in bitmap heap scans.  Tomas Vondra, Andres Freund and others argued
that it was anachronistic and hard to justify, and commit 558a9165e08
already started down the path of bypassing it in new code.  We agreed to
drop that logic and use the value directly.

For the default setting of 1, there is no change in effect.  Higher
settings can be converted from the old meaning to the new with:

  select round(sum(OLD / n::float)) from generate_series(1, OLD) s(n);

We might want to consider renaming the GUC before the next release given
the change in meaning, but it's not clear that many users had set it
very carefully anyway.  That decision is deferred for now.

4dbcb3f844 Restructure polymorphic-type resolution in funcapi.c.
resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and resolve_polymorphic_argtypes() failed to
cover the case of having to resolve anyarray given only an anyrange input.
The bug was masked if anyelement was also used (as either input or
output), which probably helps account for our not having noticed.

While looking at this I noticed that resolve_generic_type() would produce
the wrong answer if asked to make that same resolution.  ISTM that
resolve_generic_type() is confusingly defined and overly complex, so
rather than fix it, let's just make funcapi.c do the specific lookups
it requires for itself.

With this change, resolve_generic_type() is not used anywhere, so remove
it in HEAD.  In the back branches, leave it alone (complete with bug)
just in case any external code is using it.

While we're here, make some other refactoring adjustments in funcapi.c
with an eye to upcoming future expansion of the set of polymorphic types:

* Simplify quick-exit tests by adding an overall have_polymorphic_result
flag.  This is about a wash now but will be a win when there are more
flags.

* Reduce duplication of code between resolve_polymorphic_tupdesc() and
resolve_polymorphic_argtypes().

* Don't bother to validate correct matching of anynonarray or anyenum;
the parser should have done that, and even if it didn't, just doing
"return false" here would lead to a very confusing, off-point error
message.  (Really, "return false" in these two functions should only
occur if the call_expr isn't supplied or we can't obtain data type
info from it.)

* For the same reason, throw an elog rather than "return false" if
we fail to resolve a polymorphic type.

The bug's been there since we added anyrange, so back-patch to
all supported branches.

What we need for this is having the major version number and the minor

Solution.pm already have that logic, because they compute
PG_VERSION_NUM.  So we just keep all the logic there now.  Put the
minor version number into a new symbol PG_MINORVERSION_NUM.  Also, add
a symbol PG_MAJORVERSION_NUM, which is a number, alongside the
existing PG_MAJORVERSION, which is a string.

61d7c7bce3 Prevent reindex of invalid indexes on TOAST tables
Such indexes can only be duplicated leftovers of a previously failed
REINDEX CONCURRENTLY command, and a valid equivalent is guaranteed to
exist.  As toast indexes can only be dropped if invalid, reindexing
these would lead to useless duplicated indexes that can't be dropped
anymore, except if the parent relation is dropped.

Thanks to Justin Pryzby for reminding that this problem was reported
long ago during the review of the original patch of REINDEX
CONCURRENTLY, but the issue was never addressed.

24d85952a5 Introduce LogicalTapeSetExtend().
Increases the number of tapes in a logical tape set. This will be
important for disk-based hash aggregation, because the maximum number
of tapes is not known ahead of time.

While discussing this change, it was observed to regress the
performance of Sort for at least one test case. The performance
regression was because some versions of GCC switch to an inlined
version of memcpy() in LogicalTapeWrite() after this change. No
performance regression for clang was observed.

Because the regression is due to an arbitrary decision by the
compiler, I decided it shouldn't hold up this change. If it needs to
be fixed, we can find a workaround.

a6525588b7 Allow Unicode escapes in any server encoding, not only UTF-8.
SQL includes provisions for numeric Unicode escapes in string
literals and identifiers.  Previously we only accepted those
if they represented ASCII characters or the server encoding
was UTF-8, making the conversion to internal form trivial.
This patch adjusts things so that we'll call the appropriate
encoding conversion function in less-trivial cases, allowing
the escape sequence to be accepted so long as it corresponds
to some character available in the server encoding.

This also applies to processing of Unicode escapes in JSONB.
However, the old restriction still applies to client-side
JSON processing, since that hasn't got access to the server's
encoding conversion infrastructure.

This patch includes some lexer infrastructure that simplifies
throwing errors with error cursors pointing into the middle of
a string (or other complex token).  For the moment I only used
it for errors relating to Unicode escapes, but we might later
expand the usage to some other cases.

Patch by me, reviewed by John Naylor.

fe30e7ebfa Allow ALTER TYPE to change some properties of a base type.
Specifically, this patch allows ALTER TYPE to:
* Change the default TOAST strategy for a toastable base type;
* Promote a non-toastable type to toastable;
* Add/remove binary I/O functions for a type;
* Add/remove typmod I/O functions for a type;
* Add/remove a custom ANALYZE statistics functions for a type.

The first of these can be done by the type's owner; all the others
require superuser privilege since misuse could cause problems.

The main motivation for this patch is to allow extensions to
upgrade the feature sets of their data types, so the set of
alterable properties is biased towards that use-case.  However
it's also true that changing some other properties would be
a lot harder, as they get baked into physical storage and/or
stored expressions that depend on the type.

Along the way, refactor GenerateTypeDependencies() to make it easier
to call, refactor DefineType's volatility checks so they can be shared
by AlterType, and teach typcache.c that it might have to reload data
from the type's pg_type row, a scenario it never handled before.
Also rearrange alter_type.sgml a bit for clarity (put the
composite-type operations together).

bb03010b9f Remove the "opaque" pseudo-type and associated compatibility hacks.
A long time ago, it was necessary to declare datatype I/O functions,
triggers, and language handler support functions in a very type-unsafe
way involving a single pseudo-type "opaque".  We got rid of those
conventions in 7.3, but there was still support in various places to
automatically convert such functions to the modern declaration style,
to be able to transparently re-load dumps from pre-7.3 servers.
It seems unnecessary to continue to support that anymore, so take out
the hacks; whereupon the "opaque" pseudo-type itself is no longer
needed and can be dropped.

This is part of a group of patches removing various server-side kluges
for transparently upgrading pre-8.0 dump files.  Since we've had few
complaints about dropping pg_dump's support for dumping from pre-8.0
servers (commit 64f3524e2), it seems okay to now remove these kluges.

c954d49046 Extend ExecBuildAggTrans() to support a NULL pointer check.
Optionally push a step to check for a NULL pointer to the pergroup
state.

This will be important for disk-based hash aggregation in combination
with grouping sets. When memory limits are reached, a given tuple may
find its per-group state for some grouping sets but not others. For
the former, it advances the per-group state as normal; for the latter,
it skips evaluation and the calling code will have to spill the tuple
and reprocess it in a later batch.

Add the NULL check as a separate expression step because in some
common cases it's not needed.

3ed2005ff5 Introduce macros for typalign and typstorage constants.
Our usual practice for "poor man's enum" catalog columns is to define
macros for the possible values and use those, not literal constants,
in C code.  But for some reason lost in the mists of time, this was
never done for typalign/attalign or typstorage/attstorage.  It's never
too late to make it better though, so let's do that.

The reason I got interested in this right now is the need to duplicate
some uses of the TYPSTORAGE constants in an upcoming ALTER TYPE patch.
But in general, this sort of change aids greppability and readability,
so it's a good idea even without any specific motivation.

I may have missed a few places that could be converted, and it's even
more likely that pending patches will re-introduce some hard-coded
references.  But that's not fatal --- there's no expectation that
we'd actually change any of these values.  We can clean up stragglers
over time.

d677550493 Allow to_date/to_timestamp to recognize non-English month/day names.
to_char() has long allowed the TM (translation mode) prefix to
specify output of translated month or day names; but that prefix
had no effect in input format strings.  Now it does.  to_date()
and to_timestamp() will now recognize the same month or day names
that to_char() would output for the same format code.  Matching is
case-insensitive (per the active collation's notion of what that
means), just as it has always been for English month/day names
without the TM prefix.

(As per the discussion thread, there are lots of cases that this
feature will not handle, such as alternate day names.  But being
able to accept what to_char() will output seems useful enough.)

In passing, fix some shaky English and violations of message
style guidelines in jsonpath errors for the .datetime() method,
which depends on this code.

2f9661311b Represent command completion tags as structs
The backend was using strings to represent command tags and doing string
comparisons in multiple places, but that's slow and unhelpful.  Create a
new command list with a supporting structure to use instead; this is
stored in a tag-list-file that can be tailored to specific purposes with
a caller-definable C macro, similar to what we do for WAL resource
managers.  The first first such uses are a new CommandTag enum and a
CommandTagBehavior struct.

Replace numerous occurrences of char *completionTag with a
QueryCompletion struct so that the code no longer stores information
about completed queries in a cstring.  Only at the last moment, in
EndCommand(), does this get converted to a string.

EventTriggerCacheItem no longer holds an array of palloc’d tag strings
in sorted order, but rather just a Bitmapset over the CommandTags.

80d76be51c Avoid failure if autovacuum tries to access a just-dropped temp namespace.
Such an access became possible when commit 246a6c8f7 added more
aggressive cleanup of orphaned temp relations by autovacuum.
Since autovacuum's snapshot might be slightly stale, it could
attempt to access an already-dropped temp namespace, resulting in
an assertion failure or null-pointer dereference.  (In practice,
since we don't drop temp namespaces automatically but merely
recycle them, this situation could only arise if a superuser does
a manual drop of a temp namespace.  Still, that should be allowed.)

The core of the bug, IMO, is that isTempNamespaceInUse and its callers
failed to think hard about whether to treat "temp namespace isn't there"
differently from "temp namespace isn't in use".  In hopes of forestalling
future mistakes of the same ilk, replace that function with a new one
checkTempNamespaceStatus, which makes the same tests but returns a
three-way enum rather than just a bool.  isTempNamespaceInUse is gone
entirely in HEAD; but just in case some external code is relying on it,
keep it in the back branches, as a bug-compatible wrapper around the
new function.

Per report originally from Prabhat Kumar Sahu, investigated by Mahendra
Singh and Michael Paquier; the final form of the patch is my fault.
This replaces the failed fix attempt in a052f6cbb.

Backpatch as far as v11, as 246a6c8f7 was.
