Until now, logical replication conflicts were only written as plain text
to the server log, which is hard to query, analyze, or feed into external
monitoring and automation.
This commit adds a conflict_log_destination option to CREATE SUBSCRIPTION
and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION that controls where conflicts are recorded. It
accepts 'log' (the existing behavior), 'table', or 'all'.
When table logging is enabled ('table' or 'all'), an internal log table
named pg_conflict_log_<subid> is created automatically in a dedicated,
system-managed pg_conflict namespace. Using a separate namespace avoids
collisions with user table names and lets the table be shielded from
direct modification. The table is tied to the subscription through an
internal dependency, so it is dropped automatically when the subscription
is removed.
The conflict details, including the local and remote tuples, are stored in
JSON columns, so a single table layout can accommodate rows from tables
with different schemas. The table also records the local and remote
transaction IDs, LSNs, commit timestamps, and the conflict type, providing
a complete record for post-mortem analysis.
A per-subscription table was chosen over a single global log because it
aligns table ownership with the subscription lifecycle. This keeps
permission management simple: the subscription owner can perform the
permitted maintenance operations without the security concerns or
Row-Level Security that a shared table would require.
Because the table is system-managed, it is protected from direct
manipulation: DDL (such as ALTER, DROP, CREATE INDEX, and adding a
trigger, rule, policy, or extended statistics), use as an inheritance
parent or a foreign-key target, and manual INSERT, UPDATE, MERGE, or row
locking are all rejected. Only DELETE and TRUNCATE are permitted, so that
users can prune old conflict rows.
Conflict log tables are also excluded from publications, even those
defined with FOR ALL TABLES or FOR TABLES IN SCHEMA.
This commit only establishes the conflict log table along with its
creation, cleanup, and protection; recording the conflicts detected
during apply into the table will be handled in a follow-up commit.

If the user doesn't specify a name for an index, it's generated
based on the names chosen for the index columns (which the user
has no direct control over). For index columns that are just
columns of the base relation, the index column name is the same as
the base column name; but for index columns that are expressions,
it's less clear what to do. Up to now, what we have done is
equivalent to the heuristics used to choose SELECT output column
names, except that we fall back to "expr" not "?column?" in the
numerous cases that FigureColname doesn't know what to do with.
This is not tremendously helpful. More, it frequently leads to
collisions of generated index names, which we can handle but
only at the cost of user confusion; also there's some risk of
concurrent index creations trying to use the same name.
Let's try to do better.
Messing with the FigureColname heuristics would have a very
large blast radius, since that affects the column headings
that applications see. That doesn't seem wise, but fortunately
SQL queries are seldom directly concerned with index names.
So we should be able to change the index-name generation rules
as long as we decouple them from FigureColname.
The method used in this patch is to dig through the expression,
extract the names of Vars, the string representations of Consts,
and the names of functions, and run those together with underscores
between. Other expression node types are ignored but descended
through. We could work harder by handling more node types, but
it seems like this is likely to be sufficient to arrive at unique
index names in many cases.
Notably, this rule ignores the names of operators, for example
both "a + b" and "a * b" will be rendered as "a_b". This choice
was made to reduce the probability of having to double-quote
the index name.
I've also chosen to strip Const representations down to only
alphanumeric characters (plus non-ASCII characters, which our
parser treats as alphabetic anyway). So for example "x + 1.0"
would be represented as "x_10". This likewise avoids possible
quoting problems. I also considered limiting how many characters
we'd take from each Const, but didn't do that here.
We might tweak these rules some more after we get some experience
with this patch. It's being committed at the start of a
development cycle to provide as much time as possible to gather
feedback.

This was moderately tedious, because upstream has been busy
since we last did this in 2020.
Notably, they changed the signatures of both tzload() and tzparse(),
which we'd unwisely exposed as API for callers to use. I concluded
that the best answer was to change them both back to "static" and
instead expose a new API function of our own choosing, pg_tzload().
That change may be a sufficient reason not to back-patch this update,
as I'd normally want to do. There's probably not a good reason for
extensions to be calling those functions, but on the other hand
there are few pressing reasons for a back-patch. The one bug we have
run into (a Valgrind uninitialized-data complaint about zic) appears
to have no field-visible consequences.
A few of the files generated by this version of zic are not
byte-for-byte the same as before, but "zdump -v" avers that
they represent the same sets of transitions.

PL/Python set-returning functions can crash with a use-after-free when
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION is executed while the SRF is mid-iteration.
The crash occurs because srfstate->savedargs is allocated in proc->mcxt,
which gets deleted when the procedure is invalidated, leaving a dangling
pointer that PLy_function_restore_args() then dereferences.
The best fix is to use reference counting to prevent destroying the
function state while it's still in use, similar to what PL/pgSQL has
done. Rather than inventing a new wheel, this commit converts
PL/Python to use the funccache.c infrastructure.
The main challenge is that PL/Python uses SFRM_ValuePerCall for SRFs,
where the handler is called multiple times. A naive implementation
would allow the refcount to return to zero between calls, but we need
to hang onto the original state and function body. SQL-language
functions face the same challenge, so this commit follows the same
approach used in functions.c: maintain a per-call-site cache struct
(PLyProcedureCache) in fn_extra that holds both the pointer to the
long-lived PLyProcedure and the SRF execution state.
The use_count is incremented when we first obtain the procedure and is
decremented via a MemoryContextCallback registered on fn_mcxt, which runs
even during error aborts. Cleaning up the per-call SRF state needs more
care: an ExprContextCallback handles the in-query cases, since the
iterator is not guaranteed to run to completion (for example a LIMIT or a
rescan can abandon it early). But unlike SQL functions, whose resources
are released by transaction abort, PL/Python holds Python reference counts
on the iterator and saved arguments that abort will not release, and
ExprContextCallbacks are not invoked during an error abort. The
MemoryContextCallback on fn_mcxt therefore doubles as the backstop that
releases those references when a query errors out mid-iteration.
Since fn_extra is now used for PLyProcedureCache, this commit removes
use of the funcapi.h SRF infrastructure (SRF_IS_FIRSTCALL,
SRF_RETURN_NEXT, etc.) and switches to direct isDone signaling via
ReturnSetInfo, matching how SQL functions handle ValuePerCall mode.
This fixes a longstanding bug, so ideally we'd back-patch it. But
it'd be impractical to back-patch further than v18 where funccache.c
came in. The patch is somewhat invasive, and the bug only arises in
very uncommon usages (which is why it evaded detection for so long).
On the whole, the risk/reward ratio for putting this into v18 doesn't
seem good, so commit to master only.

This reverts the non-text (custom/directory/tar) output format support
for pg_dumpall added by 763aaa06f0 and its feature-specific follow-ups,
in line with Noah Misch's post-commit review which recommends reverting
and finishing the work through the commitfest.
Scope is deliberately minimal: only the feature itself is removed.
Independent improvements that merely touched the same files, or that were
committed alongside the feature but do not depend on its design, are
preserved.
Reverted (the feature):
763aaa06f0 Add non-text output formats to pg_dumpall
d6d9b96b40 Clean up nodes that are no longer of use in 007_pgdumpall.pl
01c729e0c7 Fix casting away const-ness in pg_restore.c

Preserved (independent of the feature):
b2898baaf7 the check_mut_excl_opts() helper in src/fe_utils/option_utils.c
and its use in pg_dump
7c8280eeb5 pg_dump's conflicting-option refactor (and tests 002/005)
be0d0b457c pg_dumpall's rejection of --clean together with --data-only
(re-expressed directly, since pg_dumpall.c is otherwise
returned to its pre-feature state)
74b4438a70 the dangling-grantor-OID GRANT fix (back-patched through 16)
273d26b75e, d4cb9c3776 independent pg_restore.sgml clarifications
Because the feature restructured pg_dumpall.c and pg_restore.c (pg_restore's
main() was split into restore_one_database() plus a dispatcher) and
interleaved its option checks with the conflicting-option refactor in the
same regions, the cosmetic check_mut_excl_opts() reflow of those two files'
option blocks is inseparable from the feature and comes out with it; the
behavior is unchanged. The reusable helper and pg_dump's use of it are
unaffected.

Late-model clang complains that these functions should be labeled
with "format(printf, 2, 3)", and it's right. But let's go a bit
further and also make use of varargs, to remove duplication and
allow these functions to be used with non-integer input values.
Since no good deed goes unpunished, I had to also adjust a couple
of call sites. They weren't wrong as-is, since the size_t-sized
arguments were coerced to int on the way into diag3(). But
without that, we have to adjust the format strings.
The point of this is to suppress compiler warnings, so back-patch
into branches containing pg_bsd_indent, even though there's no

MD5 authentication warnings are queued during authentication, before
startup options and role/database settings have been applied. The code
checked md5_password_warnings at queue time, so settings such as
ALTER ROLE ... SET md5_password_warnings = off did not suppress the
warning, even though the established session showed the GUC as off.
Keep the connection-warning infrastructure generic by allowing each
queued warning to carry an optional filter callback. Evaluate that
callback when warnings are emitted, after startup options and
role/database settings have been processed.
Use this for MD5 authentication warnings, while leaving password

There previously were a number of issues:
- We'd upload the cache even if we already had a high hit rate. That means we
churn through the available cache space very quickly.
For this we now check if the cache hit ratio is already high, and skip
uploading a new cache in that case.
- We'd generate per-branch caches, even if master's already would suffice,
because the branch doesn't change much
This is solved indirectly by the above.
- The cache key allowed prefix matches based on the branch,
e.g. master-pending would always use master's branch
Replace the cache key element separator of - with :, which is not a valid
part of a branch name.
- When rebasing a feature branch, we'd start with just that branch's cache,
rather than also having the newer cache of master available
This is solved by downloading by master's and the feature branch's cache,
simply overlaying both. That's possible because ccache is content addressed.
- The size of a cache would increase to the max, even though there likely will
be no benefit from old cache entries.
Address this by explicitly evicting old data and also recompressing the
cache before uploading it.
In my testing this utilizes the available cache space (10GB for personal
accounts) much more effectively than before.
The not entirely trivial determination of whether it's worth uploading a cache
entry is moved to a python script. I first had it as shell, but that gets
awkward. This way it'd also be more viable to use ccache for msvc at some
point.
The per-job redundancies are a bit annoying. There's a way around that, by
using composite actions, but I think that might be harder to understand,
without all that much of an improvement.

Cirrus CI, which the project used for CI until now, has shut down on June 1,
2026. Replace it with GitHub Actions. GitHub Actions was selected because it
has unlimited runner time for public repositories.
The GitHub Actions based CI currently covers:
- SanityCheck
- Linux - Autoconf
- Linux - Meson, (32-bit and 64-bit)
- macOS - Meson
- Windows (Visual Studio + Meson and MinGW + Meson)
- CompilerWarnings
BSD coverage is left for later, as it requires more work.
Note that, for performance reasons, use of address sanitizer was moved to the
Linux - Meson (64-bit) task.
While Actions workflows in new forks are disabled by default, existing forks
that pull new changes into the repository will automatically start running
CI. That may not be desired. There however is no way native to Actions to
prevent this.
To avoid that, each repository that wants real CI to run needs to explicitly
opt into doing so, by creating the 'PG_CI_ENABLED' repository variable with
the value 1.
To make that less confusing, emit a summary whenever we skip running CI, with
a message explaining how to enable CI.
The remaining cirrus-ci support will be removed in a subsequent commit, to
make review easier.
Back-branches will be updated later, after being sure that workflow runs
correctly on master.

In some cases its necessary to understand whether TSC frequency data was

the end of pg_test_timing, and rework TSC functions to support that.
This would have helped debug the buildfarm report fixed in 7fc36c5db5

Additionally, emit a warning if TSC frequency from calibration differs

In passing, add an explicit early return in the output function if the

We do make each line start with " *", with some whitespace following.
We preserve pgindent's existing behavior of not touching comments

When a struct member name matches a registered typedef, pgindent
removes the space after "!=" (and some other operators), like so:
entry->dsh.dsa_handle !=DSA_HANDLE_INVALID
The problem is that the related code in lexi.c sets last_u_d to
true before jumping to found_typename, causing the next operator to
be classified as unary and suppressing the following space. This
is correct for type names, but not for struct members. For
example, "Datum *x" needs "*" to be unary to suppress the space
before "x". To fix, only set last_u_d before jumping to
found_typename if the typedef name doesn't appear after "." or
"->".
Note that this does not bump INDENT_VERSION. We'll do that just
once after some other changes to pg_bsd_indent are committed.

remove_useless_groupby_columns() uses a relation's unique indexes to
prove that some GROUP BY columns are functionally dependent on others,
and so can be dropped from the GROUP BY clause. The match between
index columns and GROUP BY columns was done by attno alone, ignoring
two equality-relation issues.
A type may belong to multiple btree opfamilies whose notions of
equality differ. The record type, for instance, has record_ops
(per-field equality) and record_image_ops (bytewise equality). A
unique index under one opfamily does not prove uniqueness under the
equality used by GROUP BY when the SortGroupClause's eqop comes from a
different opfamily.
Likewise, since nondeterministic collations were introduced in PG 12,
two collations may disagree on equality, and a unique index under one
collation does not prove uniqueness under another.
In either case, rows that the index considers distinct can collapse
into a single GROUP BY group, taking ungrouped columns of differing
values with them, so the planner drops a column that is not in fact
functionally dependent and produces wrong results.
Fix by requiring, for each unique-index key column, that some GROUP BY
item on the same column has an eqop in the index's opfamily and a
collation that agrees on equality with the index's collation. This
mirrors the combined check relation_has_unique_index_for() applies to
join clauses.
This is a v18 regression: commit bd10ec529 extended
remove_useless_groupby_columns() from primary-key constraints to
arbitrary unique indexes. Before that, the function consulted only
primary keys, whose enforcement index is required by parse_utilcmd.c
to use the default opclass and the column's declared collation, so
neither mismatch could arise. Back-patch to v18 only.

rel_is_distinct_for()'s RTE_SUBQUERY branch passed only the equality
operator from each join clause to query_is_distinct_for(), discarding
the operator's input collation. query_is_distinct_for() then verified
opfamily compatibility but never checked collations, so a DISTINCT /
GROUP BY / set-op operating under one collation was trusted to prove
uniqueness for a comparison performed under an unrelated collation.
As with the recent fix in relation_has_unique_index_for(), this is
unsound for nondeterministic collations and yields wrong query results
in any optimization that consumes the proof.
Fix by carrying each clause's operator input collation into
query_is_distinct_for() and validating it at every check-site against
the subquery target expression's collation.
Back-patch to all supported branches. query_is_distinct_for() is
declared in an installed header, so on stable branches the existing
two-list signature is retained as a thin wrapper that forwards to a

When GROUP BY uses a nondeterministic collation, the planner's
optimization of moving HAVING clauses to WHERE can produce incorrect
query results. The HAVING clause may apply a stricter collation that
distinguishes values the GROUP BY considers equal. Pushing such a
clause to WHERE causes it to filter individual rows before grouping,
potentially eliminating group members and changing aggregate results.
Fix this by detecting collation conflicts before flatten_group_exprs,
while the HAVING clause still contains GROUP Vars (Vars referencing
RTE_GROUP). At that point, each GROUP Var directly carries the GROUP
BY collation as its varcollid, making it straightforward to compare
against the operator's inputcollid. A mismatch where the GROUP BY
collation is nondeterministic means the clause is unsafe to push down.
RowCompareExpr is treated specially, since it carries per-column
inputcollids[] rather than a single inputcollid.
The conflicting clause indices are recorded in a Bitmapset and
consulted during the existing HAVING-to-WHERE loop, so that only
affected clauses are kept in HAVING; other safe clauses in the same
query are still pushed.
Back-patch to v18 only. The fix relies on the RTE_GROUP mechanism
introduced in v18 (commit 247dea89f), which is what lets us identify
grouping expressions and their resolved collations via GROUP Vars on
pre-flatten havingQual. Pre-v18 branches lack that machinery, so a
back-patch there would need a different approach. Given the absence
of field reports of this bug on back branches, the risk of carrying a
different fix on stable branches is not justified.

When using ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS or ALTER TABLE ... SPLIT
PARTITION, extension dependencies on partition indexes were being lost.
This happened because the new partition indexes are created fresh from
the parent partitioned table's indexes, while the old partition indexes
(with their extension dependencies) are dropped.
Fix this by collecting extension dependencies from source partition
indexes before detaching them, then applying those dependencies to the
corresponding new partition indexes after they're created. The mapping
between old and new indexes is done via their common parent partitioned
index.
For MERGE operations, all source partition indexes sharing a parent
partitioned index must have the same extension dependencies; if they
differ, an error naming both conflicting partition indexes is raised.
The check is implemented by collecting one entry per partition index,
sorting by parent index OID, and comparing adjacent entries in a single
pass. This is order-independent: the same set of partitions produces
the same decision regardless of the order they are listed in the MERGE
command, and subset mismatches are caught in both directions.
For SPLIT operations, the new partition indexes simply inherit all
extension dependencies from the source partition's index.
The regression tests exercising this feature live under
src/test/modules/test_extensions, where the test_ext3 and test_ext5
extensions are available; core regression tests cannot assume any
particular extension is installed.

to screw up, so let's get rid of it.
This patch just removes the logic that checks for changes in the last
auto-assigned NodeTag value. We still need eea9fa9b2's cross-check
on the supplied list of header files, to prevent divergence between
the makefile and meson build systems. We'll also sometimes need the
nodetag_number() infrastructure for hand-assigning new NodeTags in
stable branches.

This batch is similar to 462fe0ff62 and addresses a variety of code
style issues, including grammar mistakes, typos, inconsistent variable
names in function declarations, and incorrect function names in comments
and documentation. These fixes have accumulated on the community
mailing lists since the commit mentioned above.
Notably, Alexander Lakhin previously submitted a patch identifying many
of the trivial typos and grammar issues that had been reported on
pgsql-hackers. His patch covered a somewhat large portion of the issues
addressed here, though not all of them.
The documentation changes only affect HEAD.
Commit 095c9d4cf06 added errdetail() reporting of the PID and UID of
the process that sent a termination signal. However, as noted by
Andres Freund, the implementation had architectural problems:
1. wrapper_handler() in pqsignal.c contained SIGTERM-specific logic
(setting ProcDieSenderPid/Uid), violating its role as a generic
signal dispatch wrapper.
2. Using globals to pass sender info between wrapper_handler and the
real handler is unsafe when signals nest on some platforms.
3. The syncrep.c errdetail used psprintf() to conditionally embed
text via %s, breaking translatability.
Adopt the approach proposed by Andres Freund: introduce a
pg_signal_info struct that is passed as an argument to all signal
handlers via the SIGNAL_ARGS macro. wrapper_handler populates it
from siginfo_t when SA_SIGINFO is available, or with zeros otherwise.
This keeps wrapper_handler fully generic and avoids any globals for
passing signal metadata.
Since pqsigfunc now has a different signature from the system's
signal handler type, SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL can no longer be passed
directly to pqsignal(). Introduce PG_SIG_IGN and PG_SIG_DFL macros
that cast to the new pqsigfunc type, and update all call sites.
The legacy pqsignal() in libpq retains its original signature via
a local typedef.
Only die() reads pg_siginfo today, copying the sender PID/UID into
ProcDieSenderPid/Uid for later use by ProcessInterrupts(). Only the
first SIGTERM's sender info is recorded.
Also fix the syncrep.c translatability issue by using separate ereport
calls with complete, independently translatable errdetail strings.
Also make the psql TAP test require the DETAIL line on platforms with
SA_SIGINFO, rather than making it unconditionally optional.
On Windows, pg_signal_info uses uint32_t for pid and uid fields
since pid_t/uid_t are not available early enough in the include
chain. The Windows signal dispatch in pgwin32_dispatch_queued_signals()
passes a zeroed pg_signal_info to handlers.

Add a new FDW callback routine that allows importing remote statistics
for a foreign table directly to the local server, instead of collecting
statistics locally. The new callback routine is called at the beginning
of the ANALYZE operation on the table, and if the FDW failed to import
the statistics, the existing callback routine is called on the table to
collect statistics locally.
Also implement this for postgres_fdw. It is enabled by "restore_stats"
option both at the server and table level. Currently, it is the user's
responsibility to ensure remote statistics to import are up-to-date, so
the default is false.

The size of the I/O worker pool used to implement io_method=worker was
previously controlled by the io_workers setting, defaulting to 3. It
was hard to know how to tune it effectively. That is replaced with:
io_min_workers=2
io_max_workers=8 (up to 32)
io_worker_idle_timeout=60s
io_worker_launch_interval=100ms
The pool is automatically sized within the configured range according to
recent variation in demand. It grows when existing workers detect that
latency might be introduced by queuing, and shrinks when the
highest-numbered worker is idle for too long. Work was already
concentrated into low-numbered workers in anticipation of this logic.
The logic for waking extra workers now also tries to measure and reduce
the number of spurious wakeups, though they are not entirely eliminated.

Allows collecting details about AIO / prefetch for scan nodes backed by
a ReadStream. This may be enabled by a new "IO" option in EXPLAIN, and
it shows information about the prefetch distance and I/O requests.
As of this commit this applies only to BitmapHeapScan, because that's
the only scan node using a ReadStream and collecting instrumentation
from workers in a parallel query. Support for SeqScan and TidRangeScan,
the other scan nodes using ReadStream, will be added in subsequent
commits.
The stats are collected only when required by EXPLAIN ANALYZE, with the
IO option (disabled by default). The amount of collected statistics is
very limited, but we don't want to clutter EXPLAIN with too much data.
The IOStats struct is stored in the scan descriptor as a field, next to
other fields used by table AMs. A pointer to the field is passed to the
ReadStream, and updated directly.
It's the responsibility of the table AM to allocate the struct (e.g. in
ambeginscan) whenever the flag SO_SCAN_INSTRUMENT flag is passed to the
scan, so that the executor and ReadStream has access to it.
The collected stats are designed for ReadStream, but are meant to be
reasonably generic in case a TAM manages I/Os in different ways.

This allows the direct use of the Time-Stamp Counter (TSC) value retrieved
from the CPU using RDTSC/RDTSCP instructions, instead of APIs like
clock_gettime() on POSIX systems.
This reduces the overhead of EXPLAIN with ANALYZE and TIMING ON. Tests showed
that the overhead on top of actual runtime when instrumenting queries moving
lots of rows through the plan can be reduced from 2x as slow to 1.2x as slow
compared to the actual runtime. More complex workloads such as TPCH queries
have also shown ~20% gains when instrumented compared to before.
To control use of the TSC, the new "timing_clock_source" GUC is introduced,
whose default ("auto") automatically uses the TSC when reliable, for example
when running on modern Intel CPUs, or when running on Linux and the system
clocksource is reported as "tsc". The use of the operating system clock source
can be enforced by setting "system", or on x86-64 architectures the use of TSC
can be enforced by explicitly setting "tsc".
In order to use the TSC the frequency is first determined by use of CPUID, and
if not available, by running a short calibration loop at program start,
falling back to the system clock source if TSC values are not stable.
Note, that we split TSC usage into the RDTSC CPU instruction which does not
wait for out-of-order execution (faster, less precise) and the RDTSCP
instruction, which waits for outstanding instructions to retire. RDTSCP is
deemed to have little benefit in the typical InstrStartNode() /
InstrStopNode() use case of EXPLAIN, and can be up to twice as slow. To
separate these use cases, the new macro INSTR_TIME_SET_CURRENT_FAST() is
introduced, which uses RDTSC.
The original macro INSTR_TIME_SET_CURRENT() uses RDTSCP and is supposed to be
used when precision is more important than performance. When the system timing
clock source is used both of these macros instead utilize the system
APIs (clock_gettime / QueryPerformanceCounter) like before.
Additional users of interval timing, such as track_io_timing and
track_wal_io_timing could also benefit from being converted to use
INSTR_TIME_SET_CURRENT_FAST() but are left for future changes.

PGOAUTHDEBUG is a blunt instrument: you get all the debugging features,
or none of them. The most annoying consequence during manual use is the
Curl debug trace, which tends to obscure the device flow prompt
entirely. The promotion of PGOAUTHCAFILE into its own feature in
993368113 improved the situation somewhat, but there's still the
discomfort of knowing you have to opt into many dangerous behaviors just
to get the single debug feature you wanted.
Explode the PGOAUTHDEBUG syntax into a comma-separated list. The old
"UNSAFE" value enables everything, like before. Any individual unsafe
features still require the envvar to begin with an "UNSAFE:" prefix, to
try to interrupt the flow of someone who is about to do something they
should not.
So now, rather than
PGOAUTHDEBUG=UNSAFE # enable all the unsafe things
a developer can say
PGOAUTHDEBUG=call-count # only show me the call count. safe!
PGOAUTHDEBUG=UNSAFE:trace # print secrets, but don't allow HTTP
To avoid adding more build system scaffolding to libpq-oauth, implement
this entirely in a small private header. This unfortunately can't be
standalone, so it needs a headerscheck exception.

When this flag is specified, REPACK no longer acquires access-exclusive
lock while the new copy of the table is being created; instead, it
creates the initial copy under share-update-exclusive lock only (same as
vacuum, etc), and it follows an MVCC snapshot; it sets up a replication
slot starting at that snapshot, and uses a concurrent background worker
to do logical decoding starting at the snapshot to populate a stash of
concurrent data changes. Those changes can then be re-applied to the
new copy of the table just before swapping the relfilenodes.
Applications can continue to access the original copy of the table
normally until just before the swap, which is the only point at which
the access-exclusive lock is needed.
There are some loose ends in this commit:
1. concurrent repack needs its own replication slot in order to apply
logical decoding, which are a scarce resource and easy to run out of.
2. due to the way the historic snapshot is initially set up, only one
REPACK process can be running at any one time on the whole system.
3. there's a danger of deadlocking (and thus abort) due to the lock
upgrade required at the final phase.
These issues will be addressed in upcoming commits.
The design and most of the code are by Antonin Houska, heavily based on
his own pg_squeeze third-party implementation.

transformCreateSchemaStmtElements has always believed that it is
supposed to re-order the subcommands of CREATE SCHEMA into a safe
execution order. However, it is nowhere near being capable of doing
that correctly. Nor is there reason to think that it ever will be,
or that that is a well-defined requirement. (The SQL standard does
say that it should be possible to do foreign-key forward references
within CREATE SCHEMA, but it's not clear that the text requires
anything more than that.) Moreover, the problem will get worse as
we add more subcommand types. Let's just drop the whole idea and
execute the commands in the order given, which seems like a much
less astonishment-prone definition anyway. The foreign-key issue
will be handled in a follow-up patch.
This will result in a release-note-worthy incompatibility,
which is that forward references like
CREATE SCHEMA myschema
CREATE VIEW myview AS SELECT * FROM mytable
CREATE TABLE mytable (...);
used to work and no longer will. Considering how many closely
related variants never worked, this isn't much of a loss.
Along the way, pass down a ParseState so that we can provide an
error cursor for "wrong schema name" and related errors, and fix
transformCreateSchemaStmtElements so that it doesn't scribble
on the parsetree passed to it.

Previously, autovacuum always disabled parallel vacuum regardless of
the table's index count or configuration. This commit enables
autovacuum workers to use parallel index vacuuming and index cleanup,
using the same parallel vacuum infrastructure as manual VACUUM.
Two new configuration options control the feature. The GUC
autovacuum_max_parallel_workers sets the maximum number of parallel
workers a single autovacuum worker may launch; it defaults to 0,
preserving existing behavior unless explicitly enabled. The per-table
storage parameter autovacuum_parallel_workers provides per-table
limits. A value of 0 disables parallel vacuum for the table, a
positive value caps the worker count (still bounded by the GUC), and
-1 (the default) defers to the GUC.
To handle cases where autovacuum workers receive a SIGHUP and update
their cost-based vacuum delay parameters mid-operation, a new
propagation mechanism is added to vacuumparallel.c. The leader stores
its effective cost parameters in a DSM segment. Parallel vacuum
workers poll for changes in vacuum_delay_point(); if an update is
detected, they apply the new values locally via VacuumUpdateCosts().
A new test module, src/test/modules/test_autovacuum, is added to
verify that parallel autovacuum workers are correctly launched and
that cost-parameter updates are propagated as expected.
The patch was originally proposed by Maxim Orlov, but the
implementation has undergone significant architectural changes
since then during the review process.

Previously, different places (e.g. query "total time") were repurposing the
Instrumentation struct initially introduced for capturing per-node statistics
during execution. This overuse of the same struct is confusing, e.g. by
cluttering calls of InstrStartNode/InstrStopNode in unrelated code paths, and
prevents future refactorings.
Instead, simplify the Instrumentation struct to only track time and WAL/buffer
usage. Similarly, drop the use of InstrEndLoop outside of per-node
instrumentation - these calls were added without any apparent benefit since
the relevant fields were never read.
Introduce the NodeInstrumentation struct to carry forward the per-node
instrumentation information. WorkerInstrumentation is renamed to
WorkerNodeInstrumentation for clarity.
In passing, clarify that InstrAggNode is expected to only run after
InstrEndLoop (as it does in practice), and drop unused code.
This also fixes a consequence-less bug: Previously ->async_mode was only set
when a non-zero instrument_option was passed. That turns out to be harmless
right now, as ->async_mode only affects a timing related field.

Previously, the shared header (HASHHDR) and the directory were
allocated by the caller, and passed to hash_create(), while the actual
elements were allocated separately with ShmemAlloc(). After this
commit, all the memory needed by the header, the directory, and all
the elements is allocated using a single ShmemInitStruct() call, and
the different parts are carved out of that allocation. This way the
ShmemIndex entries (and thus pg_shmem_allocations) reflect the size of
the whole hash table, rather than just the directories.
Commit f5930f9a98 attempted this earlier, but it had to be reverted.
The new strategy is to let dynahash.c perform all the allocations with
the alloc function, but have the alloc function carve out the parts
from the one larger allocation. The shared header and the directory
are now also allocated with alloc calls, instead of passing the area
for those directly from the caller.

This allows data checksums to be enabled, or disabled, in a running
cluster without restricting access to the cluster during processing.
Data checksums could prior to this only be enabled during initdb or
when the cluster is offline using the pg_checksums app. This commit
introduce functionality to enable, or disable, data checksums while
the cluster is running regardless of how it was initialized.
A background worker launcher process is responsible for launching a
dynamic per-database background worker which will mark all buffers
dirty for all relation with storage in order for them to have data
checksums calculated on write. Once all relations in all databases
have been processed, the data_checksums state will be set to on and
the cluster will at that point be identical to one which had data
checksums enabled during initialization or via offline processing.
When data checksums are being enabled, concurrent I/O operations
from backends other than the data checksums worker will write the
checksums but not verify them on reading. Only when all backends
have absorbed the procsignalbarrier for setting data_checksums to
on will they also start verifying checksums on reading. The same
process is repeated during disabling; all backends write checksums
but do not verify them until the barrier for setting the state to
off has been absorbed by all. This in-progress state is used to
ensure there are no false negatives (or positives) due to reading
a checksum which is not in sync with the page.
A new testmodule, test_checksums, is introduced with an extensive
set of tests covering both online and offline data checksum mode
changes. The tests which run concurrent pgbdench during online
processing are gated behind the PG_TEST_EXTRA flag due to being
very expensive to run. Two levels of PG_TEST_EXTRA flags exist
to turn on a subset of the expensive tests, or the full suite of
multiple runs.
This work is based on an earlier version of this patch which was
reviewed by among others Heikki Linnakangas, Robert Haas, Andres
Freund, Tomas Vondra, Michael Banck and Andrey Borodin. During
the work on this new version, Tomas Vondra has given invaluable
assistance with not only coding and reviewing but very in-depth
testing.
