Stop table sync workers when subscription relation entry is removed
When a table sync worker is in waiting state and the subscription table
entry is removed because of a concurrent subscription refresh, the
worker could be left orphaned. To avoid that, explicitly stop the

Handle unqualified SEQUENCE NAME options properly in parse_utilcmd.c.
generateSerialExtraStmts() was sloppy about handling the case where
SEQUENCE NAME is given with a not-schema-qualified name. It was generating
a CreateSeqStmt with an unqualified sequence name, and an AlterSeqStmt
whose "owned_by" DefElem contained a T_String Value with a null string
pointer in the schema-name position. The generated nextval() argument was
also underqualified. This accidentally failed to fail at runtime, but only
so long as the current default creation namespace at runtime is the right
namespace. That's bogus; the parse-time transformation is supposed to be
inserting the right schema name in all cases, so as to avoid any possible
skew in that selection. I'm not sure this could fail in pg_dump's usage,
but it's still wrong; we have had real bugs in this area before adopting
the policy that parse_utilcmd.c should generate only fully-qualified
auxiliary commands. A slightly lesser problem, which is what led me to
notice this in the first place, is that pprint() dumped core on the
AlterSeqStmt because of the bogus T_String.

Fix bit-rot in pg_upgrade's test.sh, and improve documentation.
Doing a cross-version upgrade test with test.sh evidently hasn't been
tested since circa 9.2, because the script lacked case branches for
old-version servers newer than 9.1. Future-proof that a bit, and
clean up breakage induced by our recent drop of V0 function call
protocol (namely that oldstyle_length() isn't in the regression
suite anymore).
(This isn't enough to make the test work perfectly cleanly across
versions, but at least it finishes and provides dump files that
you can diff manually. One issue I didn't touch is that we might
want to execute the "reindex_hash.sql" file in the new DB before
dumping it, so that the hash indexes don't vanish from the dump.)
Improve the TESTING doc file: put the tl;dr version at the top not
the bottom, and bring its explanation of how to run a cross-version
test up to speed, since the installcheck target isn't there and won't
be resurrected. Improve the comment in the Makefile about why not.
In passing, teach .gitignore and "make clean" about a couple more
junk output files.
Most of the improvements were in the new SCRAM code:
* In SCRAM protocol violation messages, use errdetail to provide the
details.
* If pg_backend_random() fails, throw an ERROR rather than just LOG. We
shouldn't continue authentication if we can't generate a random nonce.
* Use ereport() rather than elog() for the "invalid SCRAM verifier"
messages. They shouldn't happen, if everything works, but it's not
inconceivable that someone would have invalid scram verifiers in
pg_authid, e.g. if a broken client application was used to generate the
verifier.
But this change applied to old code:
* Use ERROR rather than COMMERROR for protocol violation errors. There's
no reason to not tell the client what they did wrong. The client might be
confused already, so that it cannot read and display the error correctly,
but let's at least try. In the "invalid password packet size" case, we
used to actually continue with authentication anyway, but that is now a
hard error.

postgres_fdw: Allow cancellation of transaction control commands.
Commit f039eaac7131ef2a4cf63a10cf98486f8bcd09d2, later back-patched
with commit 1b812afb0eafe125b820cc3b95e7ca03821aa675, allowed many of
the queries issued by postgres_fdw to fetch remote data to respond to
cancel interrupts in a timely fashion. However, it didn't do anything
about the transaction control commands, which remained
noninterruptible.
Improve the situation by changing do_sql_command() to retrieve query
results using pgfdw_get_result(), which uses the asynchronous
interface to libpq so that it can check for interrupts every time
libpq returns control. Since this might result in a situation
where we can no longer be sure that the remote transaction state
matches the local transaction state, add a facility to force all
levels of the local transaction to abort if we've lost track of
the remote state; without this, an apparently-successful commit of
the local transaction might fail to commit changes made on the
remote side. Also, add a 60-second timeout for queries issue during
transaction abort; if that expires, give up and mark the state of
the connection as unknown. Drop all such connections when we exit
the local transaction. Together, these changes mean that if we're
aborting the local toplevel transaction anyway, we can just drop the
remote connection in lieu of waiting (possibly for a very long time)
for it to complete an abort.
This still leaves quite a bit of room for improvement. PQcancel()
has no asynchronous interface, so if we get stuck sending the cancel
request we'll still hang. Also, PQsetnonblocking() is not used, which
means we could block uninterruptibly when sending a query. There
might be some other optimizations possible as well. Nonetheless,
this allows us to escape a wait for an unresponsive remote server
quickly in many more cases than previously.

Prevent BEFORE triggers from violating partitioning constraints.
Since tuple-routing implicitly checks the partitioning constraints
at least for the levels of the partitioning hierarchy it traverses,
there's normally no need to revalidate the partitioning constraint
after performing tuple routing. However, if there's a BEFORE trigger
on the target partition, it could modify the tuple, causing the
partitioning constraint to be violated. Catch that case.
Also, instead of checking the root table's partition constraint after
tuple-routing, check it beforehand. Otherwise, the rules for when
the partitioning constraint gets checked get too complicated, because
you sometimes have to check part of the constraint but not all of it.

Clear auth context correctly when re-connecting after failed auth attempt.
If authentication over an SSL connection fails, with sslmode=prefer,
libpq will reconnect without SSL and retry. However, we did not clear
the variables related to GSS, SSPI, and SASL authentication state, when
reconnecting. Because of that, the second authentication attempt would
always fail with a "duplicate GSS/SASL authentication request" error.
pg_SSPI_startup did not check for duplicate authentication requests like
the corresponding GSS and SASL functions, so with SSPI, you would leak
some memory instead.
Another way this could manifest itself, on version 10, is if you list
multiple hostnames in the "host" parameter. If the first server requests
Kerberos or SCRAM authentication, but it fails, the attempts to connect to
the other servers will also fail with "duplicate authentication request"
errors.
To fix, move the clearing of authentication state from closePGconn to
pgDropConnection, so that it is cleared also when re-connecting.

Backpatch down to 9.3. 9.2 has the same bug, but the code around closing
the connection is somewhat different, so that this patch doesn't apply.
To fix this in 9.2, I think we would need to back-port commit 210eb9b743
first, and then apply this patch. However, given that we only bumped into
this in our own testing, we haven't heard any reports from users about
this, and that 9.2 will be end-of-lifed in a couple of months anyway, it
doesn't seem worth the risk and trouble.
The logic to free the buffer after the gss_init_sec_context() call was
always a bit wonky. Because gss_init_sec_context() sets the GSS context
variable, conn->gctx, we would in fact always attempt to free the buffer.
That only works, because previously conn->ginbuf.value was initialized to
NULL, and free(NULL) is a no-op. Commit 61bf96cab0 refactored things so
that the GSS input token buffer is allocated locally in pg_GSS_continue,
and not held in the PGconn object. After that, the now-local ginbuf.value
variable isn't initialized when it's not used, so we pass a bogus pointer
to free().
To fix, only try to free the input buffer if we allocated it. That was the
intention, certainly after the refactoring, and probably even before that.

backpatching this.

Prevent possibility of panics during shutdown checkpoint.
When the checkpointer writes the shutdown checkpoint, it checks
afterwards whether any WAL has been written since it started and
throws a PANIC if so. At that point, only walsenders are still
active, so one might think this could not happen, but walsenders can
also generate WAL, for instance in BASE_BACKUP and logical decoding
related commands (e.g. via hint bits). So they can trigger this panic
if such a command is run while the shutdown checkpoint is being
written.
To fix this, divide the walsender shutdown into two phases. First,
checkpointer, itself triggered by postmaster, sends a
PROCSIG_WALSND_INIT_STOPPING signal to all walsenders. If the backend
is idle or runs an SQL query this causes the backend to shutdown, if
logical replication is in progress all existing WAL records are
processed followed by a shutdown. Otherwise this causes the walsender
to switch to the "stopping" state. In this state, the walsender will
reject any further replication commands. The checkpointer begins the
shutdown checkpoint once all walsenders are confirmed as
stopping. When the shutdown checkpoint finishes, the postmaster sends
us SIGUSR2. This instructs walsender to send any outstanding WAL,
including the shutdown checkpoint record, wait for it to be replicated
to the standby, and then exit.

Fix old corner-case logic error in final_cost_nestloop().
When costing a nestloop with stop-at-first-inner-match semantics, and a
non-indexscan inner path, final_cost_nestloop() wants to charge the full
scan cost of the inner rel at least once, with additional scans charged
at inner_rescan_run_cost which might be less. However the logic for
doing this effectively assumed that outer_matched_rows is at least 1.
If it's zero, which is not unlikely for a small outer rel, we ended up
charging inner_run_cost plus N times inner_rescan_run_cost, as much as
double the correct charge for an outer rel with only one row that
we're betting won't be matched. (Unless the inner rel is materialized,
in which case it has very small inner_rescan_run_cost and the cost
is not so far off what it should have been.)
The upshot of this was that the planner had a tendency to select plans
that failed to make effective use of the stop-at-first-inner-match
semantics, and that might have Materialize nodes in them even when the
predicted number of executions of the Materialize subplan was only 1.

Receive invalidation messages correctly in tablesync worker
We didn't accept any invalidation messages until the whole sync process
had finished (because it flattens all the remote transactions in the
single one). So the sync worker didn't learn about subscription
changes/drop until it has finished. This could lead to "orphaned" sync
workers.

Previously this was not allowed, as copy.c didn't set the

Remove replication slot name check from ReplicationSlotAcquire()
When trying to access a replication slot that is supposed to already
exist, we don't need to check the naming rules again. If the slot
does not exist, we will then get a "does not exist" error message, which
is generally more useful from the perspective of an end user.

The logical replication worker processes now use the normal die()

Make ALTER SEQUENCE, including RESTART, fully transactional.
Previously the changes to the "data" part of the sequence, i.e. the
one containing the current value, were not transactional, whereas the
definition, including minimum and maximum value were. That leads to
odd behaviour if a schema change is rolled back, with the potential
that out-of-bound sequence values can be returned.
To avoid the issue create a new relfilenode fork whenever ALTER
SEQUENCE is executed, similar to how TRUNCATE ... RESTART IDENTITY
already is already handled.
This commit also makes ALTER SEQUENCE RESTART transactional, as it
seems to be too confusing to have some forms of ALTER SEQUENCE behave
transactionally, some forms not. This way setval() and nextval() are
not transactional, but DDL is, which seems to make sense.
This commit also rolls back parts of the changes made in 3d092fe540

Always use -fPIC, not -fpic, when building shared libraries with gcc.
On some platforms, -fpic fails for sufficiently large shared libraries.
We've mostly not hit that boundary yet, but there are some extensions
such as Citus and pglogical where it's becoming a problem. A bit of
research suggests that the penalty for -fPIC is small, in the
single-digit-percentage range --- and there's none at all on popular
platforms such as x86_64. So let's just default to -fPIC everywhere
and provide one less thing for extension developers to worry about.
Per complaint from Christoph Berg. Back-patch to all supported branches.
(I did not bother to touch the recently-removed Makefiles for sco and
unixware in the back branches, though. We'd have no way to test that
it doesn't break anything on those platforms.)

Avoid -Wconversion warnings from direct use of GET_n_BYTES macros.
The GET/SET_n_BYTES macros are meant to be infrastructure for the
DatumGetFoo/FooGetDatum macros, which include a cast to the intended
target type. Using them directly without a cast, as DatumGetFloat4
and friends previously did, can yield warnings when -Wconversion is on.
This is of little significance when building Postgres proper, because
there are such a huge number of such warnings in the server that nobody
would think -Wconversion is of any use. But some extensions build with
-Wconversion due to outside constraints. Commit 14cca1bf8 did a disservice
to those extensions by moving DatumGetFloat4 et al into postgres.h,
where they can now cause warnings in extension builds.
To fix, use DatumGetInt32 and friends in place of the low-level macros.
This is arguably a bit cleaner anyway.

Prevent running pg_resetwal/pg_resetxlog against wrong-version data dirs.
pg_resetwal (formerly pg_resetxlog) doesn't insist on finding a matching
version number in pg_control, and that seems like an important thing to
preserve since recovering from corrupt pg_control is a prime reason to
need to run it. However, that means you can try to run it against a
data directory of a different major version, which is at best useless
and at worst disastrous. So as to provide some protection against that
type of pilot error, inspect PG_VERSION at startup and refuse to do
anything if it doesn't match. PG_VERSION is read-only after initdb,
so it's unlikely to get corrupted, and even if it were corrupted it would
be easy to fix by hand.

only one kind of partitioning. And improve some comments there.

Code review focused on new node types added by partitioning support.
Fix failure to check that we got a plain Const from const-simplification of

is an int4 to money cast, but it's only stable not immutable (because of
dependence on lc_monetary), resulting in a FuncExpr that the code was
miserably unequipped to deal with, or indeed even to notice that it was
failing to deal with. Add test cases around this coercion behavior.
In view of the above, sprinkle the code liberally with castNode() macros,
in hope of catching the next such bug a bit sooner. Also, change some

pointer types. And change some struct fields that were declared Node*
