When adjust_appendrel_attrs translates a Var referencing a parent
relation into a Var referencing a child relation, it propagates
varnullingrels from the parent Var to the translated Var. Previously,
the code simply overwrote the translated Var's varnullingrels with
those of the parent.
This was incorrect because the translated Var might already possess
nonempty varnullingrels. This happens, for example, when a LATERAL
subquery within a UNION ALL references a Var from the nullable side of
an outer join. In such cases, the translated Var correctly carries
the outer join's relid in its varnullingrels. Overwriting these bits
with the parent Var's set caused the planner to lose track of the fact
that the Var could be nulled by that outer join.
In the reported case, because the underlying column had a NOT NULL
constraint, the planner incorrectly deduced that the Var could never
be NULL and discarded essential IS NOT NULL filters. This led to
incorrect query results where NULL rows were returned instead of being
filtered out.
To fix, use bms_add_members to merge the parent Var's varnullingrels
into the translated Var's existing set, preserving both sources of
nullability.
Back-patch to v16. Although the reported case does not seem to cause
problems in v16, leaving incorrect varnullingrels in the tree seems
like a trap for the unwary.

confused an encoding ID for a boolean so it gave the wrong results for

This problem would happen for a COPY BINARY, when stacking values like
that:

aa => null
The second key/value pair is discarded and pfree() calls are attempted
on its key and its value, leading to a pointer dereference for the value

Commit 1e7fe06c10 changed
pg_mbstrlen_with_len() to ereport(ERROR) if the input ends in an
incomplete character. Most callers want that. text_substring() does
not. It detoasts the most bytes it could possibly need to get the
requested number of characters. For example, to extract up to 2 chars
from UTF8, it needs to detoast 8 bytes. In a string of 3-byte UTF8
chars, 8 bytes spans 2 complete chars and 1 partial char.
Fix this by replacing this pg_mbstrlen_with_len() call with a string
traversal that differs by stopping upon finding as many chars as the
substring could need. This also makes SUBSTRING() stop raising an
encoding error if the incomplete char is past the end of the substring.
This is consistent with the general philosophy of the above commit,
which was to raise errors on a just-in-time basis. Before the above
commit, SUBSTRING() never raised an encoding error.
SUBSTRING() has long been detoasting enough for one more char than
needed, because it did not distinguish exclusive and inclusive end
position. For avoidance of doubt, stop detoasting extra.
Back-patch to v14, like the above commit. For applications using
SUBSTRING() on non-ASCII column values, consider applying this to your
copy of any of the February 12, 2026 releases.

While the preceding commit prevented such attachments from occurring
in future, this one aims to prevent further abuse of any already-
created operator that exposes _int_matchsel to the wrong data types.
(No other contrib module has a vulnerable selectivity estimator.)
We need only check that the Const we've found in the query is indeed
of the type we expect (query_int), but there's a difficulty: as an
extension type, query_int doesn't have a fixed OID that we could
hard-code into the estimator.
Therefore, the bulk of this patch consists of infrastructure to let
an extension function securely look up the OID of a datatype
belonging to the same extension. (Extension authors have requested
such functionality before, so we anticipate that this code will
have additional non-security uses, and may soon be extended to allow
looking up other kinds of SQL objects.)
This is done by first finding the extension that owns the calling
function (there can be only one), and then thumbing through the
objects owned by that extension to find a type that has the desired
name. This is relatively expensive, especially for large extensions,
so a simple cache is put in front of these lookups.

Selectivity estimators come in two flavors: those that make specific
assumptions about the data types they are working with, and those
that don't. Most of the built-in estimators are of the latter kind
and are meant to be safely attachable to any operator. If the
operator does not behave as the estimator expects, you might get a
poor estimate, but it won't crash.
However, estimators that do make datatype assumptions can malfunction
if they are attached to the wrong operator, since then the data they
get from pg_statistic may not be of the type they expect. This can
rise to the level of a security problem, even permitting arbitrary
code execution by a user who has the ability to create SQL objects.
To close this hole, establish a rule that built-in estimators are
required to protect themselves against being called on the wrong type
of data. It does not seem practical however to expect estimators in
extensions to reach a similar level of security, at least not in the
near term. Therefore, also establish a rule that superuser privilege
is required to attach a non-built-in estimator to an operator.
We expect that this restriction will have little negative impact on
extensions, since estimators generally have to be written in C and
thus superuser privilege is required to create them in the first
place.
This commit changes the privilege checks in CREATE/ALTER OPERATOR
to enforce the rule about superuser privilege, and fixes a couple
of built-in estimators that were making datatype assumptions without
sufficiently checking that they're valid.

An upcoming patch requires this cache so that it can track updates
in the pg_extension catalog. So far though, the EXTENSIONOID cache
only exists in v18 and up (see 490f869d9). We can add it in older
branches without an ABI break, if we are careful not to disturb the
numbering of existing syscache IDs.
In v16 and before, that just requires adding the new ID at the end
of the hand-assigned enum list, ignoring our convention about
alphabetizing the IDs. But in v17, genbki.pl enforces alphabetical
order of the IDs listed in MAKE_SYSCACHE macros. We can fake it
out by calling the new cache ZEXTENSIONOID.
Note that adding a syscache does change the required contents of the
relcache init file (pg_internal.init). But that isn't problematic
since we blow those away at postmaster start for other reasons.

raises an "illegal byte sequence" error if it finds a terminator in the
middle of the sequence.
2. Callers with a length or end pointer now use either
pg_mblen_with_len() or pg_mblen_range(), for the same effect, depending
on which of the two seems more convenient at each site.
3. A small number of cases pre-validate a string, and can use
pg_mblen_unbounded().

The build generates four files based on the wait event contents stored
in wait_event_names.txt:
- wait_event_types.h
- pgstat_wait_event.c
- wait_event_funcs_data.c
- wait_event_types.sgml
The SGML file is generated as part of a documentation build, with its
data stored in doc/src/sgml/ for meson and configure. The three others
are handled differently for meson and configure:
- In configure, all the files are created in src/backend/utils/activity/.
A link to wait_event_types.h is created in src/include/utils/.
- In meson, all the files are created in src/include/utils/.
The two C files, pgstat_wait_event.c and wait_event_funcs_data.c, are
then included in respectively wait_event.c and wait_event_funcs.c,
without the "utils/" path.
For configure, this does not present a problem. For meson, this has to
be combined with a trick in src/backend/utils/activity/meson.build,
where include_directories needs to point to include/utils/ to make the
inclusion of the C files work properly, causing builds to pull in
PostgreSQL headers rather than system headers in some build paths, as
src/include/utils/ would take priority.
In order to fix this issue, this commit reworks the way the C/H files
are generated, becoming consistent with guc_tables.inc.c:
- For meson, basically nothing changes. The files are still generated
in src/include/utils/. The trick with include_directories is removed.
- For configure, the files are now generated in src/backend/utils/, with
links in src/include/utils/ pointing to the ones in src/backend/. This
requires extra rules in src/backend/utils/activity/Makefile so as a
make command in this sub-directory is able to work.
- The three files now fall under header-stamp, which is actually simpler
as guc_tables.inc.c does the same.
- wait_event_funcs_data.c and pgstat_wait_event.c are now included with
"utils/" in their path.
This problem has not been an issue in the buildfarm; it has been noted
with AIX and a conflict with float.h. This issue could, however, create
conflicts in the buildfarm depending on the environment with unexpected
headers pulled in, so this fix is backpatched down to where the
generation of the wait-event files has been introduced.
While on it, this commit simplifies wait_event_names.txt regarding the
paths of the files generated, to mention just the names of the files
generated. The paths where the files are generated became incorrect.
The path of the SGML path was wrong.
This change has been tested in the CI, down to v17. Locally, I have run
tests with configure (with and without VPATH), as well as meson, on the
three branches.
Combo oversight in fa88928470 and 1e68e43d3f.

BackgroundPsql needs to wait for all the output from an interactive
psql command to come back. To make sure that's happened, it issues
the command, then issues \echo and \warn psql commands that echo
a "banner" string (which we assume won't appear in the command's
output), then waits for the banner strings to appear. The hazard
in this approach is that the banner will also appear in the echoed
psql commands themselves, so we need to distinguish those echoes from
the desired output. Commit 8b886a4e3 tried to do that by positing
that the desired output would be directly preceded and followed by
newlines, but it turns out that that assumption is timing-sensitive.
In particular, it tends to fail in builds made --without-readline,
wherein the command echoes will be made by the pty driver and may
be interspersed with prompts issued by psql proper.
It does seem safe to assume that the banner output we want will be
followed by a newline, since that should be the last output before
things quiesce. Therefore, we can improve matters by putting quotes
around the banner strings in the \echo and \warn psql commands, so
that their echoes cannot include banner directly followed by newline,
and then checking for just banner-and-newline in the match pattern.
While at it, spruce up the pump() call in sub query() to look like
the neater version in wait_connect(), and don't die on timeout
until after printing whatever we got.

As noted in the commit message for b4307ae2e5, the change to the
TransitionCaptureState structure is nominally an ABI break, but it is
not expected to affect any third-party code. Therefore, add it to the
.abi-compliance-history file.

The test added in commit 851f6649cc uses a backup taken from a node
created by the previous test to perform standby related checks. On
Windows, however, the standby failed to start with the following error:
FATAL: could not rename file "backup_label" to "backup_label.old": Permission denied
This occurred because some background sessions from the earlier test were
still active. These leftover processes continued accessing the parent
directory of the backup_label file, likely preventing the rename and
causing the failure. Ensuring that these sessions are cleanly terminated
resolves the issue in local testing.
Additionally, the has_restoring => 1 option has been removed, as it was
not required by the new test.

A race condition could cause a newly synced replication slot to become
invalidated between its initial sync and the checkpoint.
When syncing a replication slot to a standby, the slot's initial
restart_lsn is taken from the publisher's remote_restart_lsn. Because slot
sync happens asynchronously, this value can lag behind the standby's
current redo pointer. Without any interlocking between WAL reservation and
checkpoints, a checkpoint may remove WAL required by the newly synced
slot, causing the slot to be invalidated.
To fix this, we acquire ReplicationSlotAllocationLock before reserving WAL
for a newly synced slot, similar to commit 006dd4b2e5. This ensures that
if WAL reservation happens first, the checkpoint process must wait for
slotsync to update the slot's restart_lsn before it computes the minimum
required LSN.
However, unlike in ReplicationSlotReserveWal(), this lock alone cannot
protect a newly synced slot if a checkpoint has already run
CheckPointReplicationSlots() before slotsync updates the slot. In such
cases, the remote restart_lsn may be stale and earlier than the current
redo pointer. To prevent relying on an outdated LSN, we use the oldest
WAL location available if it is greater than the remote restart_lsn.
This ensures that newly synced slots always start with a safe, non-stale
restart_lsn and are not invalidated by concurrent checkpoints.

Buildfarm member fairywren hit the Windows limitation on the length of a
file path. While there may be other things we should also do to prevent
this from happening, it's certainly the case that the length of this
test file name is much longer than others in the same directory, so make
it shorter.

ed1a88dda made it so WindowClauses can be merged when all window
functions belonging to the WindowClause can equally well use some
other WindowClause without any behavioral changes. When that
optimization applies, the WindowFunc's "winref" gets adjusted to
reference the new WindowClause.
That commit does not work well with the deduplication logic in
find_window_functions(), which only added the WindowFunc to the list
when there wasn't already an identical WindowFunc in the list. That
deduplication logic meant that the duplicate WindowFunc wouldn't get the
"winref" changed when optimize_window_clauses() was able to swap the
WindowFunc to another WindowClause. This could lead to the following
error in the unlikely event that the deduplication code did something and
the duplicate WindowFunc happened to be moved into another WindowClause.
ERROR: WindowFunc with winref 2 assigned to WindowAgg with winref 1
As it turns out, the deduplication logic in find_window_functions() is
pretty bogus. It might have done something when added, as that code
predates b8d7f053c, which changed how projections work. As it turns
out, at least now we *will* evaluate the duplicate WindowFuncs. All
that the deduplication code seems to do today is assist in
underestimating the WindowAggPath costs due to not counting the
evaluation costs of duplicate WindowFuncs.
Ideally the fix would be to remove the deduplication code, but that
could result in changes to the plan costs, as duplicate WindowFuncs
would then be costed. Instead, let's play it safe and shift the
deduplication code so it runs after the other processing in
optimize_window_clauses().
Backpatch only as far as v16 as there doesn't seem to be any other harm
done by the WindowFunc deduplication code before then. This issue was
fixed in master by 7027dd499.

When executing a data-modifying CTE query containing MERGE and some
other DML operation on a table with statement-level AFTER triggers,
the transition tables passed to the triggers would fail to include the
rows affected by the MERGE.
The reason is that, when initializing a ModifyTable node for MERGE,
MakeTransitionCaptureState() would create a TransitionCaptureState
structure with a single "tcs_private" field pointing to an
AfterTriggersTableData structure with cmdType == CMD_MERGE. Tuples
captured there would then not be included in the sets of tuples
captured when executing INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE ModifyTable nodes in the
same query.
Since there are no MERGE triggers, we should only create
AfterTriggersTableData structures for INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Individual
MERGE actions should then use those, thereby sharing the same capture
tuplestores as any other DML commands executed in the same query.
This requires changing the TransitionCaptureState structure, replacing
"tcs_private" with 3 separate pointers to AfterTriggersTableData
structures, one for each of INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE. Nominally,
this is an ABI break to a public structure in commands/trigger.h.
However, since this is a private field pointing to an opaque data
structure, the only way to create a valid TransitionCaptureState is by
calling MakeTransitionCaptureState(), and no extensions appear to be
doing that anyway, so it seems safe for back-patching.
Backpatch to v15, where MERGE was introduced.

ExecInitModifyTable() unconditionally required a ctid junk column even
when the target was a partitioned table. This led to spurious "could
not find junk ctid column" errors when all children were excluded and
only the dummy root result relation remained.
A partitioned table only appears in the result relations list when all
leaf partitions have been pruned, leaving the dummy root as the sole
entry. Assert this invariant (nrels == 1) and skip the ctid requirement.
Also adjust ExecModifyTable() to tolerate invalid ri_RowIdAttNo for
partitioned tables, which is safe since no rows will be processed in
this case.
