Fix possible cache invalidation failure in ReceiveSharedInvalidMessages.

Commit fad153ec45299bd4d4f29dec8d9e04e2f1c08148 modified sinval.c to reduce
the number of calls into sinvaladt.c (which require taking a shared lock)
by keeping a local buffer of collected-but-not-yet-processed messages.
However, if processing of the last message in a batch resulted in a
recursive call to ReceiveSharedInvalidMessages, we could overwrite that
message with a new one while the outer invalidation function was still
working on it.  This would be likely to lead to invalidation of the wrong
cache entry, allowing subsequent processing to use stale cache data.
The fix is just to make a local copy of each message while we're processing
it.

Spotted by Andres Freund.  Back-patch to 8.4 where the bug was introduced.
Fix handling of array of char pointers in ecpglib.

When array of char * was used as target for a FETCH statement returning more
than one row, it tried to store all the result in the first element. Instead it
should dump array of char pointers with right offset, use the address instead
of the value of the C variable while reading the array and treat such variable
as char **, instead of char * for pointer arithmetic.

Fix use of free in walsender error handling after a sysid mismatch.

Found via valgrind. The bug exists since the introduction of the walsender,
so backpatch to 9.0.

Correct comment in Hot Standby nbtree handling

Logic is correct, matching handling of LP_DEAD elsewhere.
Remove tabs after spaces in C comments

This was not changed in HEAD, but will be done later as part of a
pgindent run.  Future pgindent runs will also do this.

Fix interval test, which was broken for floating-point timestamps.

Commit 4318daecc959886d001a6e79c6ea853e8b1dfb4b introduced a test that
couldn't be made consistent between integer and floating-point
timestamps.

It was designed to test the longest possible interval output length,
so removing four zeros from the number of hours, as this patch does,
is not ideal. But the test still has some utility for its original
purpose, and there aren't a lot of other good options.

Noah Misch suggested a different approach where we test that the
output either matches what we expect from integer timestamps or what
we expect from floating-point timestamps. That seemed to obscure an
otherwise simple test, however.

Fix failure to set ActiveSnapshot while rewinding a cursor.

ActiveSnapshot needs to be set when we call ExecutorRewind because some
plan node types may execute user-defined functions during their ReScan
calls (nodeLimit.c does so, at least).  The wisdom of that is somewhat
debatable, perhaps, but for now the simplest fix is to make sure the
required context is valid.  Failure to do this typically led to a
null-pointer-dereference core dump, though it's possible that in more
complex cases a function could be executed with the wrong snapshot
leading to very subtle misbehavior.

Per report from Leif Jensen.  It's been broken for a long time, so
back-patch to all active branches.
Avoid buffer bloat in libpq when server is consistently faster than client.

If the server sends a long stream of data, and the server + network are
consistently fast enough to force the recv() loop in pqReadData() to
iterate until libpq's input buffer is full, then upon processing the last
incomplete message in each bufferload we'd usually double the buffer size,
due to supposing that we didn't have enough room in the buffer to finish
collecting that message.  After filling the newly-enlarged buffer, the
cycle repeats, eventually resulting in an out-of-memory situation (which
would be reported misleadingly as "lost synchronization with server").
Of course, we should not enlarge the buffer unless we still need room
after discarding already-processed messages.

This bug dates back quite a long time: pqParseInput3 has had the behavior
since perhaps 2003, getCopyDataMessage at least since commit 70066eb1a1ad
in 2008.  Probably the reason it's not been isolated before is that in
common environments the recv() loop would always be faster than the server
(if on the same machine) or faster than the network (if not); or at least
it wouldn't be slower consistently enough to let the buffer ramp up to a
problematic size.  The reported cases involve Windows, which perhaps has
different timing behavior than other platforms.

Per bug #7914 from Shin-ichi Morita, though this is different from his
proposed solution.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Protect against torn pages when deleting GIN list pages.

To-be-deleted list pages contain no useful information, as they are being
deleted, but we must still protect the writes from being torn by a crash
after a partial write. To do that, re-initialize the pages on WAL replay.

Jeff Janes caught this with a test program to test partial writes.
Backpatch to all supported versions.
Un-break ecpg test suite under --disable-integer-datetimes.

Commit 4318daecc959886d001a6e79c6ea853e8b1dfb4b broke it.  The change in
sub-second precision at extreme dates is normal.  The inconsistent
truncation vs. rounding is essentially a bug, albeit a longstanding one.
Back-patch to 8.4, like the causative commit.
Document permissions needed for pg_database_size and pg_tablespace_size.

Back in 8.3, we installed permissions checks in these functions (see
commits 8bc225e7990a and cc26599b7206).  But we forgot to document that
anywhere in the user-facing docs; it did get mentioned in the 8.3 release
notes, but nobody's looking at that any more.  Per gripe from Suya Huang.
Get rid of bogus dependency on typcategory in to_json() and friends.

These functions were relying on typcategory to identify arrays and
composites, which is not reliable and not the normal way to do it.
Using typcategory to identify boolean, numeric types, and json itself is
also pretty questionable, though the code in those cases didn't seem to be
at risk of anything worse than wrong output.  Instead, use the standard
lsyscache functions to identify arrays and composites, and rely on a direct
check of the type OID for the other cases.

In HEAD, also be sure to look through domains so that a domain is treated
the same as its base type for conversions to JSON.  However, this is a
small behavioral change; given the lack of field complaints, we won't
back-patch it.

In passing, refactor so that there's only one copy of the code that decides
which conversion strategy to apply, not multiple copies that could (and
have) gotten out of sync.
Accept tcl 8.6 in configure's probe for tclsh.

Usually the search would find plain "tclsh" without any trouble,
but some installations might only have the version-numbered flavor
of that program.

No compatibility problems have been reported with 8.6, so we might
as well back-patch this to all active branches.

Free PQresult on error in pg_receivexlog.

The leak is fairly small and rare, but a leak nevertheless.

Per Coverity report. Backpatch to 9.2, where pg_receivexlog was added.
pg_basebackup shares the code, but it always exits on error, so there is
no real leak.
Ignore config.pl and buildenv.pl in src/tools/msvc.

config.pl and buildenv.pl can be used to customize build settings when
using MSVC.  They should never get committed into the common source tree.

Back-patch to 9.0; it looks like the rules were different in 8.4.

Initialize padding bytes in btree_gist varbit support.

The code expands a varbit gist leaf key to a node key by copying the bit
data twice in a varlen datum, as both the lower and upper key. The lower key
was expanded to INTALIGN size, but the padding bytes were not initialized.
That's a problem because when the lower/upper keys are compared, the padding
bytes are used compared too, when the values are otherwise equal. That could
lead to incorrect query results.

REINDEX is advised for any btree_gist indexes on bit or bit varying data
type, to fix any garbage padding bytes on disk.

Per Valgrind, reported by Andres Freund. Backpatch to all supported
versions.
Code review for recent changes in relcache.c.

rd_replidindex should be managed the same as rd_oidindex, and rd_keyattr
and rd_idattr should be managed like rd_indexattr.  Omissions in this area
meant that the bitmapsets computed for rd_keyattr and rd_idattr would be
leaked during any relcache flush, resulting in a slow but permanent leak in
CacheMemoryContext.  There was also a tiny probability of relcache entry
corruption if we ran out of memory at just the wrong point in
RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap.  Otherwise, the fields were not zeroed where
expected, which would not bother the code any AFAICS but could greatly
confuse anyone examining the relcache entry while debugging.

Also, create an API function RelationGetReplicaIndex rather than letting
non-relcache code be intimate with the mechanisms underlying caching of
that value (we won't even mention the memory leak there).

Also, fix a relcache flush hazard identified by Andres Freund:
RelationGetIndexAttrBitmap must not assume that rd_replidindex stays valid
across index_open.

The aspects of this involving rd_keyattr date back to 9.3, so back-patch
those changes.
In initdb, ensure stdout/stderr buffering behavior is what we expect.

Since this program may print to either stdout or stderr, the relative
ordering of its messages depends on the buffering behavior of those files.
Force stdout to be line-buffered and stderr to be unbuffered, ensuring
that the behavior will match standard Unix interactive behavior, even
when stdout and stderr are rerouted to a file.

Per complaint from Tomas Vondra.  The particular case he pointed out is
new in HEAD, but issues of the same sort could arise in any branch with
other error messages, so back-patch to all branches.

I'm unsure whether we might not want to do this in other client programs
as well.  For the moment, just fix initdb.
Fix race condition in preparing a transaction for two-phase commit.

To lock a prepared transaction's shared memory entry, we used to mark it
with the XID of the backend. When the XID was no longer active according
to the proc array, the entry was implicitly considered as not locked
anymore. However, when preparing a transaction, the backend's proc array
entry was cleared before transfering the locks (and some other state) to
the prepared transaction's dummy PGPROC entry, so there was a window where
another backend could finish the transaction before it was in fact fully
prepared.

To fix, rewrite the locking mechanism of global transaction entries. Instead
of an XID, just have simple locked-or-not flag in each entry (we store the
locking backend's backend id rather than a simple boolean, but that's just
for debugging purposes). The backend is responsible for explicitly unlocking
the entry, and to make sure that that happens, install a callback to unlock
it on abort or process exit.

Backpatch to all supported versions.
