Previously \watch could not display the query execution time even
when \timing was enabled because it used PSQLexec instead of
SendQuery and that function didn't support \timing. This patch
introduces PSQLexecWatch and changes \watch so as to use it, instead.
PSQLexecWatch is the function to run the query, print its results and
display how long it took (only when \timing is enabled).
This patch also changes --echo-hidden so that it doesn't print
the query that \watch executes. Since \watch cannot execute
backslash command queries, they should not be printed even
when --echo-hidden is set.

The number of % parameter markers in RAISE statement should match the number
of parameters given. We used to check that at execution time, but we have
all the information needed at compile time, so let's check it at compile
time instead. It's generally better to find mistakes earlier.

Every redo routine uses the same idiom to determine what to do to a page:
check if there's a backup block for it, and if not read, the buffer if the
block exists, and check its LSN. Refactor that into a common function,
XLogReadBufferForRedo, making all the redo routines shorter and more
readable.
This has no user-visible effect, and makes no changes to the WAL format.

This patch allows us to execute ALTER SYSTEM RESET command to
remove the configuration entry from postgresql.auto.conf.
Vik Fearing, reviewed by Amit Kapila and me.
The regression tests for contrib/test_decoding regularly failed on
postgres instances that were very slow. Either because the hardware
itself was slow or because very expensive debugging options like
CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS were used.
The reason they failed was just that some additional transactions were
decoded. Analyze and vacuum, triggered by autovac.
To fix just add a option to test_decoding to only display transactions
in which a change was actually displayed. That's not pretty because it
removes information from the tests; but better than constantly failing
tests in very likely harmless ways.
Backpatch to 9.4 where logical decoding was introduced.

68a2e52bba has introduced LWLockAcquireCommon() containing the
previous contents of LWLockAcquire() plus added functionality. The
latter then calls it, just like LWLockAcquireWithVar(). Because the
majority of callers don't need the added functionality, declare the
common code as inline. The compiler then can optimize away the unused
code. Doing so is also useful when looking at profiles, to
differentiate the users.
Backpatch to 9.4, the first branch to contain LWLockAcquireCommon().
Errors detected using Topy (https://github.com/intgr/topy), all
changes verified by hand and some manual tweaks added.

Individual changes backpatched, where applicable, as far as 9.0.
Since the dawn of time (aka Postgres95) multiple pins of the same
buffer by one backend have been optimized not to modify the shared
refcount more than once. This optimization has always used a NBuffer
sized array in each backend keeping track of a backend's pins.
That array (PrivateRefCount) was one of the biggest per-backend memory
allocations, depending on the shared_buffers setting. Besides the
waste of memory it also has proven to be a performance bottleneck when
assertions are enabled as we make sure that there's no remaining pins
left at the end of transactions. Also, on servers with lots of memory
and a correspondingly high shared_buffers setting the amount of random
memory accesses can also lead to poor cpu cache efficiency.
Because of these reasons a backend's buffers pins are now kept track
of in a small statically sized array that overflows into a hash table
when necessary. Benchmarks have shown neutral to positive performance
results with considerably lower memory usage.

The list of posting lists it's dealing with can contain placeholders for
deleted posting lists. The placeholders are kept around so that they can
be WAL-logged, but we must be careful to not try to access them.

where the compressed data leaf page code was added.
Commit a16bac36ec let "configure" detect
the system getaddrinfo() when building under 64-bit MinGW-w64. However,
src/include/port/win32/sys/socket.h assumes all native Windows
configurations use our replacement. This change placates buildfarm
member jacana until we establish a plan for getaddrinfo() on Windows.
In commit 45e02e3232, we intentionally
disallowed updates on individual elements of oidvector columns. While that
still seems like a sane idea in the abstract, we (I) forgot that citext's
"upgrade from unpackaged" script did in fact perform exactly such updates,
in order to fix the problem that citext indexes should have a collation
but would not in databases dumped or upgraded from pre-9.1 installations.
Even if we wanted to add casts to allow such updates, there's no practical
way to do so in the back branches, so the only real alternative is to make
citext's kluge even klugier. In this patch, I cast the oidvector to text,
fix its contents with regexp_replace, and cast back to oidvector. (Ugh!)
Since the aforementioned commit went into all active branches, we have to
fix this in all branches that contain the now-broken update script.
Per report from Eric Malm.
This reverts commit e23014f3d4.
As the side effect of the reverted commit, when the unit is
specified, the reloption was stored in the catalog with the unit.
This broke pg_dump (specifically, it prevented pg_dump from
outputting restorable backup regarding the reloption) and
turned the buildfarm red. Revert the commit until the fixed
version is ready.
This is useful to allow to set GUCs to values that include spaces;
something that wasn't previously possible. The primary case motivating
this is the desire to set default_transaction_isolation to 'repeatable
read' on a per connection basis, but other usecases like seach_path do
also exist.
This introduces a slight backward incompatibility: Previously a \ in
an option value would have been passed on literally, now it'll be
taken as an escape.
The relevant mailing list discussion starts with
20140204125823.GJ12016@awork2.anarazel.de.
This introduces an infrastructure which allows us to specify the units
like ms (milliseconds) in integer relation option, like GUC parameter.
Currently only autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay reloption can accept
the units.

Previously, only a single-byte character was allowed as an
escape. This patch allows it to be a multi-byte character, though it
still must be a single character.

If SELECT FOR UPDATE NOWAIT tries to lock a tuple that is concurrently
being updated, it might fail to honor its NOWAIT specification and block
instead of raising an error.
Fix by adding a no-wait flag to EvalPlanQualFetch which it can pass down
to heap_lock_tuple; also use it in EvalPlanQualFetch itself to avoid
blocking while waiting for a concurrent transaction.

Backpatch to 9.4, because that's as far back as it applies without
conflicts (although the bug goes all the way back). To that branch also
backpatch Thomas Munro's new NOWAIT test cases, committed in master by
Heikki as commit 9ee16b49f0 .
In some cases, not all Vars were being correctly marked as having been
modified for updatable security barrier views, which resulted in invalid
plans (eg: when security barrier views were created over top of
inheiritance structures).
In passing, be sure to update both varattno and varonattno, as _equalVar
won't consider the Vars identical otherwise. This isn't known to cause
any issues with updatable security barrier views, but was noticed as
missing while working on RLS and makes sense to get fixed.
Back-patch to 9.4 where updatable security barrier views were
introduced.
Use SECURITY_LOCAL_USERID_CHANGE while building temporary tables;
only escalate to SECURITY_RESTRICTED_OPERATION while potentially

That allows to run those tests against a postmaster listening on a
nonstandard port without requiring to export PGPORT in postmaster's
environment.
This still doesn't support connecting to a nondefault host without
configuring it in postmaster's environment. That's harder and less
frequently used though. So this is a useful step.
That allows parallel installcheck to succeed inside contrib/. The
output is not particularly pretty unless make's -O option to
synchronize the output is used.
There's other tests, outside contrib, that use a hardcoded,
non-unique, database name. Those prohibit paralell installcheck to be
used across more directories; but that's something for a separate
patch.
