The entry with OID 4035, for GIST jsonb_ops, is unused; apparently
it was added in preparation for index support that never materialized.
Remove it, and add a regression test case to detect future mistakes
of the same kind.

dc3e436b19 Block creation of partitions with open references to its parent
When a partition is created as part of a trigger processing, it is
possible that the partition which just gets created changes the
properties of the table the executor of the ongoing command relies on,
causing a subsequent crash.  This has been found possible when for
example using a BEFORE INSERT which creates a new partition for a
partitioned table being inserted to.

Any attempt to do so is blocked when working on a partition, with
regression tests added for both CREATE TABLE PARTITION OF and ALTER
TABLE ATTACH PARTITION.

4bc772e2af Ignore partitioned tables when processing ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS
Those tables have no physical storage, making this option unusable with
partition trees as at commit time an actual truncation was attempted.
There are still issues with the way ON COMMIT actions are done when
mixing several action types, however this impacts as well inheritance
trees, so this issue will be dealt with later.

9b6fb9fbb4 Fix ExecuteCallStmt to not scribble on the passed-in parse tree.
Modifying the parse tree at execution time is, or at least ought to be,
verboten.  It seems quite difficult to actually cause a crash this way
in v11 (although you can exhibit it pretty easily in HEAD by messing
with plan_cache_mode).  Nonetheless, it's risky, so fix and back-patch.

15c7293477 Fix bugs in plpgsql's handling of CALL argument lists.
exec_stmt_call() tried to extract information out of a CALL statement's
argument list without using expand_function_arguments(), apparently in
the hope of saving a few nanoseconds by not processing defaulted
arguments.  It got that quite wrong though, leading to crashes with
named arguments, as well as failure to enforce writability of the
argument for a defaulted INOUT parameter.  Fix and simplify the logic
by using expand_function_arguments() before examining the list.

Also, move the argument-examination to just after producing the CALL
command's plan, before invoking the called procedure.  This ensures
that we'll track possible changes in the procedure's argument list
correctly, and avoids a hazard of the plan cache being flushed while
the procedure executes.

Also fix assorted falsehoods and omissions in associated documentation.

Per bug #15477 from Alexey Stepanov.

Patch by me, with some help from Pavel Stehule.  Back-patch to v11.

793beab37e Prevent generating EEOP_AGG_STRICT_INPUT_CHECK operations when nargs == 0.
This only became a problem with 4c640f4f38, which didn't synchronize
the value agg_strict_input_check.nargs is set to, with the guard
condition for emitting the operation.

Besides such instructions being unnecessary overhead, currently the
LLVM JIT provider doesn't support them. It seems more sensible to
avoid generating such instruction than supporting them. Add assertions
to make it easier to debug a potential further occurance.

981dc2baa8 Make ts_locale.c's character-type functions cope with UTF-16.
On Windows, in UTF8 database encoding, what char2wchar() produces is
UTF16 not UTF32, ie, characters above U+FFFF will be represented by
surrogate pairs.  t_isdigit() and siblings did not account for this
and failed to provide a large enough result buffer.  That in turn
led to bogus "invalid multibyte character for locale" errors, because
contrary to what you might think from char2wchar()'s documentation,
its Windows code path doesn't cope sanely with buffer overflow.

The solution for t_isdigit() and siblings is pretty clear: provide
a 3-wchar_t result buffer not 2.

char2wchar() also needs some work to provide more consistent, and more
accurately documented, buffer overrun behavior.  But that's a bigger job
and it doesn't actually have any immediate payoff, so leave it for later.

Per bug #15476 from Kenji Uno, who deserves credit for identifying the
cause of the problem.  Back-patch to all active branches.

1440c461f7 Yet further rethinking of build changes for macOS Mojave.
The solution arrived at in commit e74dd00f5 presumes that the compiler
has a suitable default -isysroot setting ... but further experience
shows that in many combinations of macOS version, XCode version, Xcode
command line tools version, and phase of the moon, Apple's compiler
will *not* supply a default -isysroot value.

We could potentially go back to the approach used in commit 68fc227dd,
but I don't have a lot of faith in the reliability or life expectancy of
that either.  Let's just revert to the approach already shipped in 11.0,
namely specifying an -isysroot switch globally.  As a partial response to
the concerns raised by Jakob Egger, adjust the contents of Makefile.global
to look like

CPPFLAGS = -isysroot $(PG_SYSROOT) ...
PG_SYSROOT = /path/to/sysroot

This allows overriding the sysroot path at build time in a relatively
painless way.

Add documentation to installation.sgml about how to use the PG_SYSROOT
option.  I also took the opportunity to document how to work around
macOS's "System Integrity Protection" feature.

As before, back-patch to all supported versions.

6286efb524 Lower error level from PANIC to FATAL when restoring slots at startup
When restoring slot information from disk at startup and filling in
shared memory information, the startup process would issue a PANIC
message if more slots are found than what max_replication_slots allows,
and then Postgres generates a core dump, recommending to increase
max_replication_slots.  This gives users a switch to crash Postgres at
will by creating slots, lower the configuration to not support it, and
then restart it.

Making Postgres crash hard in this case is overdoing it just to give a
recommendation to users.  So instead use a FATAL, which makes Postgres
fail to start without crashing, still giving the recommendation.  This
is more consistent with what happens for prepared transactions for
example.

cb6f8a9a72 Adjust trace_sort log messages.
The project message style guide dictates: "When citing the name of an
object, state what kind of object it is".  The parallel CREATE INDEX
patch added a worker number to most of the trace_sort messages within
tuplesort.c without specifying the object type.  Bring these messages
into compliance with the style guide.

We're still treating a leader or serial Tuplesortstate as having worker
number -1.  trace_sort is a developer option, and these two cases are
highly comparable, so this seems appropriate.

696b0c5fd0 Fix memory leak in repeated SPGIST index scans.
spgendscan neglected to pfree all the memory allocated by spgbeginscan.
It's possible to get away with that in most normal queries, since the
memory is allocated in the executor's per-query context which is about
to get deleted anyway; but it causes severe memory leakage during
creation or filling of large exclusion-constraint indexes.

Also, document that amendscan is supposed to free what ambeginscan
allocates.  The docs' lack of clarity on that point probably caused this
bug to begin with.  (There is discussion of changing that API spec going
forward, but I don't think it'd be appropriate for the back branches.)

Per report from Bruno Wolff.  It's been like this since the beginning,
so back-patch to all active branches.

In HEAD, also fix an independent leak caused by commit 2a6368343
(allocating memory during spgrescan instead of spgbeginscan, which
might be all right if it got cleaned up, but it didn't).  And do a bit
of code beautification on that commit, too.

This patch absorbs an upstream fix to "zic" for a recently-introduced

Given the current source data, the bug only manifests in zones with
leap seconds, which we don't generate, so that there's no actual

case somebody uses our copy of "zic" to do something else, it seems

14a158f9bf Fix interaction of CASE and ArrayCoerceExpr.
An array-type coercion appearing within a CASE that has a constant
(after const-folding) test expression was mangled by the planner, causing
all the elements of the resulting array to be equal to the coerced value
of the CASE's test expression.  This is my oversight in commit c12d570fa:
that changed ArrayCoerceExpr to use a subexpression involving a
CaseTestExpr, and I didn't notice that eval_const_expressions needed an
adjustment to keep from folding such a CaseTestExpr to a constant when
it's inside a suitable CASE.

This is another in what's getting to be a depressingly long line of bugs
associated with misidentification of the referent of a CaseTestExpr.
We're overdue to redesign that mechanism; but any such fix is unlikely
to be back-patchable into v11.  As a stopgap, fix eval_const_expressions
to do what it must here.  Also add a bunch of comments pointing out the
restrictions and assumptions that are needed to make this work at all.

Also fix a related oversight: contain_context_dependent_node() was not
aware of the relationship of ArrayCoerceExpr to CaseTestExpr.  That was
somewhat fail-soft, in that the outcome of a wrong answer would be to
prevent optimizations that could have been made, but let's fix it while
we're at it.

Per bug #15471 from Matt Williams.  Back-patch to v11 where the faulty
logic came in.

040a1df614 Correctly set t_self for heap tuples in expand_tuple
Commit 16828d5c0 incorrectly set an invalid pointer for t_self for heap
tuples. This patch correctly copies it from the source tuple, and
includes a regression test that relies on it being set correctly.

Backpatch to release 11.

Fixes bug #15448 reported by Tillmann Schulz

5ef037cf0b List wait events in alphabetical order
This changes the documentation, and the related structures so as
everything is consistent.

Some wait events were not listed alphabetically since their
introduction, others have been added rather randomly.  Keeping all those
entries in order helps in maintenance, and helps the user looking at the
documentation.

Backpatch-through: 10, only for the documentation part to avoid an ABI
breakage.
