In existing releases of libxml2, xmlXPathCompile can be driven
to stack overflow because it fails to protect itself against
too-deeply-nested input. While there is an upstream fix as of
yesterday, it will take years for that to propagate into all
shipping versions. In the meantime, we can protect our own
usages basically for free by calling xmlXPathCtxtCompile instead.
(The actual bug is that libxml2 keeps its nesting counter in the
xmlXPathContext, and its parsing code was willing to just skip
counting nesting levels if it didn't have a context. So if we supply
a context, all is well. It seems odd actually that it works at all
to not supply a context, because this means that XPath parsing does
not have access to XML namespace info. Apparently libxml2 never
checks namespaces until runtime? Anyway, this seems like good
future-proofing even if its only immediate effect is to dodge a bug.)
Sadly, this hack only offers protection with libxml2 2.9.11 and newer.
Before that there are multiple similar problems, so if you are
processing untrusted XML it behooves you to get a newer version.
But we have some pretty old libxml2 in the buildfarm, so it seems
impractical to add a regression test to verify this fix.

I managed to break this test in two different ways in commit
05036a3155.
First, the output of the new call to tuple_data_split() on the test
sequence is dependent on endianness. This is fixed by setting a
special start value for the test sequence that produces the same
output regardless of the endianness of the machine.
Second, on versions older than v15, the new test case fails under
"force_parallel_mode = regress" with the following error:
ERROR: cannot access temporary tables during a parallel operation
This is because pageinspect's disk-accessing functions are
incorrectly marked PARALLEL SAFE on versions older than v15 (see
commit aeaaf520f4 for details). This one is fixed by changing the
test sequence to be permanent. The only reason it was previously
marked temporary was to avoid needing a DROP SEQUENCE command at
the end of the test. Unlike some other tests in this file, the use
of a permanent sequence here shouldn't result in any test
instability like what was fixed by commit e2933a6e11.

When pg_dump retrieves the list of database objects and performs the
data dump, there was possibility that objects are replaced with others
of the same name, such as views, and access them. This vulnerability
could result in code execution with superuser privileges during the
pg_dump process.
This issue can arise when dumping data of sequences, foreign
tables (only 13 or later), or tables registered with a WHERE clause in
the extension configuration table.
To address this, pg_dump now utilizes the newly introduced
restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind GUC parameter to restrict the
accesses to non-system views and foreign tables during the dump
process. This new GUC parameter is added to back branches too, but
these changes do not require cluster recreation.

When creating and initializing a logical slot, the restart_lsn is set
to the latest WAL insertion point (or the latest replay point on
standbys). Subsequently, WAL records are decoded from that point to
find the start point for extracting changes in the
DecodingContextFindStartpoint() function. Since the initial
restart_lsn could be in the middle of a transaction, the start point
must be a consistent point where we won't see the data for partial
transactions.
Previously, when not building a full snapshot, serialized snapshots
were restored, and the SnapBuild jumps to the consistent state even
while finding the start point. Consequently, the slot's restart_lsn
and confirmed_flush could be set to the middle of a transaction. This
could lead to various unexpected consequences. Specifically, there
were reports of logical decoding decoding partial transactions, and
assertion failures occurred because only subtransactions were decoded
without decoding their top-level transaction until decoding the commit
record.
To resolve this issue, the changes prevent restoring the serialized
snapshot and jumping to the consistent state while finding the start
point.
On v17 and HEAD, a flag indicating whether snapshot restores should be
skipped has been added to the SnapBuild struct, and SNAPBUILD_VERSION
has been bumpded.
On backbranches, the flag is stored in the LogicalDecodingContext
instead, preserving on-disk compatibility.

constant value, then postgres_fdw would find the EquivalenceMember with
the Const and then try to produce an ORDER BY containing that Const.
This caused problems with INT typed Consts as these could appear to be
requests to order by an ordinal column position rather than the constant
value. This could lead to either an error such as:
ERROR: ORDER BY position <int const> is not in select list
or worse, if the constant value is a valid column, then we could just
sort by the wrong column altogether.
Here we fix this issue by just not including these Consts in the ORDER

Yet another bug in the ilk of commits a7ee7c851 and 741b88435. In
741b88435, we took care to clear the memorized location of the
downlink when we split the parent page, because splitting the parent
page can move the downlink. But we missed that even *updating* a tuple
on the parent can move it, because updating a tuple on a gist page is
implemented as a delete+insert, so the updated tuple gets moved to the
end of the page.
This commit fixes the bug in two different ways (belt and suspenders):
1. Clear the downlink when we update a tuple on the parent page, even
if it's not split. This the same approach as in commits a7ee7c851
and 741b88435.
I also noticed that gistFindCorrectParent did not clear the
'downlinkoffnum' when it stepped to the right sibling. Fix that
too, as it seems like a clear bug even though I haven't been able
to find a test case to hit that.
2. Change gistFindCorrectParent so that it treats 'downlinkoffnum'
merely as a hint. It now always first checks if the downlink is
still at that location, and if not, it scans the page like before.
That's more robust if there are still more cases where we fail to
clear 'downlinkoffnum' that we haven't yet uncovered. With this,
it's no longer necessary to meticulously clear 'downlinkoffnum',
so this makes the previous fixes unnecessary, but I didn't revert
them because it still seems nice to clear it when we know that the
downlink has moved.
Also add the test case using the same test data that Alexander
posted. I tried to reduce it to a smaller test, and I also tried to
reproduce this with different test data, but I was not able to, so
let's just include what we have.

replacing a join with a scan, and by 2) modifying create_scan_plan() in

GiST compress functions (like all GiST opclass functions) are
supposed to be called in short-lived memory contexts, so that
minor memory leaks in them are not of concern, and indeed
explicit pfree's are likely slightly counterproductive.
But this one in g_intbig_compress() is more than
slightly counterproductive, because it's guarded by
"if (in != DatumGetArrayTypeP(entry->key))" which means
that if this test succeeds, we've detoasted the datum twice.
(And to add insult to injury, the extra detoast result is
leaked.) Let's just drop the whole stanza, relying on the
GiST temporary context mechanism to clean up in good time.
The analogous bit in g_int_compress() is
if (r != (ArrayType *) DatumGetPointer(entry->key))
pfree(r);
which doesn't have the gratuitous-detoast problem so
I left it alone. Perhaps there is a case for removing
unnecessary pfree's more widely, but I'm not sure if it's
worth the code churn.
The potential extra decompress seems expensive enough to
justify calling this a (minor) performance bug and

As gist__int_ops stands in intarray, it is possible to store GiST
entries for leaf pages that can cause corruptions when decompressed.
Leaf nodes are stored as decompressed all the time by the compression
method, and the decompression method should map with that, retrieving
the contents of the page without doing any decompression. However, the
code authorized the insertion of leaf page data with a higher number of
array items than what can be supported, generating a NOTICE message to
inform about this matter (199 for a 8k page, for reference). When
calling the decompression method, a decompression would be attempted on
this leaf node item but the contents should be retrieved as they are.
The NOTICE message generated when dealing with the compression of a leaf
page and too many elements in the input array for gist__int_ops has been
introduced by 08ee64e, removing the marker stored in the array to track
if this is actually a leaf node. However, it also missed the fact that
the decompression path should do nothing for a leaf page. Hence, as the
code stand, a too-large array would be stored as uncompressed but the
decompression path would attempt a decompression rather that retrieving
the contents as they are.
This leads to various problems. First, even if 08ee64e tried to address
that, it is possible to do out-of-bound chunk writes with a large input
array, with the backend informing about that with WARNINGs. On
decompression, retrieving the stored leaf data would lead to incorrect
memory reads, leading to crashes or even worse.
Perhaps somebody would be interested in expanding the number of array
items that can be handled in a leaf page for this operator in the
future, which would require revisiting the choice done in 08ee64e, but
based on the lack of reports about this problem since 2005 it does not
look so. For now, this commit prevents the insertion of data for leaf
pages when using more array items that the code can handle on
decompression, switching the NOTICE message to an ERROR. If one wishes
to use more array items, gist__intbig_ops is an optional choice.
While on it, use ERRCODE_PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED as error code when a
limit is reached, because that's what the module is facing in such
cases.

If the regex compiler can see that a regex is unsatisfiable
(for example, '$foo') then it may emit an NFA having no arcs.
pg_trgm's packGraph function did the wrong thing in this case;
it would access off the end of a work array, and with bad luck
could produce a corrupted output data structure causing more
problems later. This could end with wrong answers or crashes
in queries using a pg_trgm GIN or GiST index with such a regex.
Fix by not trying to de-duplicate if there aren't at least 2 arcs.

We were identifying the updatable generated columns of inheritance
children by transposing the calculation made for their parent.
However, there's nothing that says a traditional-inheritance child
can't have generated columns that aren't there in its parent, or that
have different dependencies than are in the parent's expression.
(At present it seems that we don't enforce that for partitioning
either, which is likely wrong to some degree or other; but the case
clearly needs to be handled with traditional inheritance.)
Hence, drop the very-klugy-anyway "extraUpdatedCols" RTE field
in favor of identifying which generated columns depend on updated
columns during executor startup. In HEAD we can remove
extraUpdatedCols altogether; in back branches, it's still there but
always empty. Another difference between the HEAD and back-branch
versions of this patch is that in HEAD we can add the new bitmap field
to ResultRelInfo, but that would cause an ABI break in back branches.
Like 4b3e37993, add a List field at the end of struct EState instead.
Back-patch to v13. The bogus calculation is also being made in v12,
but it doesn't have the same visible effect because we don't use it
to decide which generated columns to recalculate; as a consequence of
which the patch doesn't apply easily. I think that there might still
be a demonstrable bug associated with trigger firing conditions, but
that's such a weird corner-case usage that I'm content to leave it
unfixed in v12.

seg stores the number of significant digits in an input number
in a "char" field. If char is signed, and the input is more than
127 digits long, the count can read out as negative causing
seg_out() to print garbage (or, if you're really unlucky,
even crash).
To fix, clamp the digit count to be not more than FLT_DIG.
(In theory this loses some information about what the original
input was, but it doesn't seem like useful information; it would
not survive dump/restore in any case.)
Also, in case there are stored values of the seg type containing
bad data, add a clamp in seg_out's restore() subroutine.

This is a back-patch of the v15-era commit f10f0ae42 into older
supported branches. The idea is to design out bugs in which an
ill-timed relcache flush clears rel->rd_smgr partway through
some code sequence that wasn't expecting that. We had another
report today of a corner case that reliably crashes v14 under
debug_discard_caches (nee CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS), and therefore
would crash once in a blue moon in the field. We're unlikely
to get rid of all such code paths unless we adopt the more
rigorous coding rules instituted by f10f0ae42. Therefore,
even though this is a bit invasive, it's time to back-patch.
Some comfort can be taken in the fact that f10f0ae42 has been
in v15 for 16 months without problems.
I left the RelationOpenSmgr macro present in the back branches,
even though no core code should use it anymore, in order to not break
third-party extensions in minor releases. Such extensions might opt
to start using RelationGetSmgr instead, to reduce their code
differential between v15 and earlier branches. This carries a hazard
of failing to compile against headers from existing minor releases.
However, once compiled the extension should work fine even with such
releases, because RelationGetSmgr is a "static inline" function so
it creates no link-time dependency. So depending on distribution
practices, that might be an OK tradeoff.

Upstream SELinux has recently marked security_context_t as officially
deprecated, causing warnings with -Wdeprecated-declarations. This is
considered as legacy code for some time now by upstream as
security_context_t got removed from most of the code tree during the
development of 2.3 back in 2014.
This removes all the references to security_context_t in sepgsql/ to be
consistent with SELinux, fixing the warnings. Note that this does not
impact the minimum version of libselinux supported.
This has been applied first as 1f32136 for 14~, but no other branches
got the call. This is in line with the recent project policy to have no
warnings in branches where builds should still be supported (9.2~ as of
today). Per discussion with Tom Lane and Álvaro Herrera.

When executing a utility statement, we must fetch everything
we need out of the PlannedStmt data structure before calling
standard_ProcessUtility. In certain cases (possibly only ROLLBACK
in extended query protocol), that data structure will get freed
during command execution. The situation is probably often harmless
in production builds, but in debug builds we intentionally overwrite
the freed memory with garbage, leading to picking up garbage values
of statement location and length, typically causing an assertion
failure later in pg_stat_statements. In non-debug builds, if
something did go wrong it would likely lead to storing garbage
for the query string.

When the logical decoding restarts from NEW_CID, since there is no
association between the top transaction and its subtransaction, both are
created as top transactions and have the same LSN. This caused the
assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder().
This patch skips the assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we
start decoding the contents of the transaction, specifically
start_decoding_at LSN in SnapBuild. This is okay because we don't
guarantee to make the association between top transaction and
subtransaction until we try to decode the actual contents of transaction.
The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN should have
been checked before the restart.
The other assertion failure is due to the reason that we forgot to track
that we have considered top-level transaction id in the list of catalog
changing transactions that were committed when one of its subtransactions
is marked as containing catalog change.

The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is
adjusted to produce a tuple whose descriptor matches the scan tuple slot
for the ForeignScan node. But in the case where the outer plan contains
an extra Sort node, if the new tlist contained columns required only for
evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local
conditions, this would cause setrefs.c to fail with the error.
The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the
Sort node into an alternative local join plan that could emit such extra
columns as well, we fail to arrange for the outer plan to propagate them
up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in
the new tlist to what is available from the outer plan. Repair.

When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects
uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID. FreeBSD still does so,
but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4
(random) UUID instead. That's not acceptable for our purposes:
if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1.
Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'.
Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation
is usable. It might be, depending on which OS version you're using,
but we're not going to get into that kind of detail.
(Maybe someday we should ditch all these external libraries
and just write our own UUID code, but today is not that day.)

Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION
records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that
information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart,
if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction
that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the
snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong
snapshot.
To fix this problem, this changes the snapshot builder so that it
remembers the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record
after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the
transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial
running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. To
avoid ABI breakage, we store the array of the initial running transactions
in the static variables InitialRunningXacts and NInitialRunningXacts,
instead of storing those in SnapBuild or ReorderBuffer.
This approach has a false positive; we could end up adding the transaction
that didn't change catalog to the snapshot since we cannot distinguish
whether the transaction has catalog changes only by checking the COMMIT
record. It doesn't have the information on which (sub) transaction has
catalog changes, and XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS doesn't necessarily indicate
that the transaction has catalog change. But that won't be a problem since
we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs.
On the master branch, we took a more future-proof approach by writing
catalog modifying transactions to the serialized snapshot which avoids the
above false positive. But we cannot backpatch it because of a change in
the SnapBuild.

We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with
multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files. It occurred to me that on
32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow
of calculations associated with the total query text size.
Address that with several changes:
1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX.
The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long"
is 64 bits. We still need overflow guards on its use, but
this helps.
2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to
more than MaxAllocHugeSize. If it got that big, qtext_load_file
would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it.
Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset,
and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t.
3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit
arithmetic on all platforms. It appears possible that under duress
those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false
conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which
could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table
insertion.
Per report from Bruno da Silva. I'm not convinced that these
issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's
contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first
place. But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense,
and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties.
