when an appropriate hash function is available for the data types, mark

Fix detection and handling of strchrnul() for macOS 15.4.
As of 15.4, macOS has strchrnul(), but access to it is blocked behind
a check for MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET >= 15.4. But our does-it-link
configure check finds it, so we try to use it, and fail with the
present default deployment target (namely 15.0). This accounts for
today's buildfarm failures on indri and sifaka.
This is the identical problem that we faced some years ago when Apple
introduced preadv and pwritev in the same way. We solved that in
commit
f014b1b9b by using AC_CHECK_DECLS instead of AC_CHECK_FUNCS
to check the functions' availability. So do the same now for
strchrnul(). Interestingly, we already had a workaround for
"the link check doesn't agree with <string.h>" cases with glibc,
which we no longer need since only the header declaration is being
checked.
Testing this revealed that the meson version of this check has never
worked, because it failed to use "-Werror=unguarded-availability-new".
(Apparently nobody's tried to build with meson on macOS versions that
lack preadv/pwritev as standard.) Adjust that while at it. Also,
we had never put support for "-Werror=unguarded-availability-new"
into v13, but we need that now.

md: Add comment & assert to buffer-zeroing path in md[start]readv()
mdreadv() has a codepath to zero out buffers when a read returns zero bytes,
guarded by a check for zero_damaged_pages || InRecovery.
The InRecovery codepath to zero out buffers in mdreadv() appears to be
unreachable. The only known paths to reach mdreadv()/mdstartreadv() in
recovery are XLogReadBufferExtended(), vm_readbuf(), and fsm_readbuf(), each
of which takes care to extend the relation if necessary. This looks to either
have been the case for a long time, or the code was never reachable.
The zero_damaged_pages path is incomplete, as missing segments are not
created.
Putting blocks into the buffer-pool that do not exist on disk is rather
problematic, as such blocks will, at least initially, not be found by scans
that rely on smgrnblocks(), as they are beyond EOF. It also can cause weird
problems with relation extension, as relation extension does not expect blocks
beyond EOF to exist.
Therefore we would like to remove that path.
mdstartreadv(), which I added in
e5fe570b51c, does not implement this zeroing
logic. I had started a discussion about that a while ago (linked below), but
forgot to act on the conclusion of the discussion, namely to disable the
in-memory-zeroing behavior.
We could certainly implement equivalent zeroing logic in mdstartreadv(), but
it would have to be more complicated due to potential differences in the
zero_damaged_pages setting between the definer and completor of IO. Given that
we want to remove the logic, that does not seem worth implementing the
necessary logic.
For now, put an Assert(false) and comments documenting this choice into
mdreadv() and comments documenting the deprecation of the path in mdreadv()
and the non-implementation of it in mdstartreadv(). If we, during testing,
discover that we do need the path, we can implement it at that time.

one-by-one, particularly for many small reads. It does, however, require
the ReadStreamBlockNumberCB callback to abide by the restrictions of AIO
batching (c.f. pgaio_enter_batchmode()). Basically, the callback may not:
a) block without first calling pgaio_submit_staged(), unless a
to-be-waited-on lock cannot be part of a deadlock, e.g. because it is
never held while waiting for IO.
b) directly or indirectly start another batch pgaio_enter_batchmode()

There are two cases where batching would likely be beneficial, but where we

bufmgr: Use AIO in StartReadBuffers()
This finally introduces the first actual use of AIO. StartReadBuffers() now
uses the AIO routines to issue IO.
As the implementation of StartReadBuffers() is also used by the functions for
reading individual blocks (StartReadBuffer() and through that
ReadBufferExtended()) this means all buffered read IO passes through the AIO
paths. However, as those are synchronous reads, actually performing the IO
asynchronously would be rarely beneficial. Instead such IOs are flagged to
always be executed synchronously. This way we don't have to duplicate a fair
bit of code.
When io_method=sync is used, the IO patterns generated after this change are
the same as before, i.e. actual reads are only issued in WaitReadBuffers() and
StartReadBuffers() may issue prefetch requests. This allows to bypass most of
the actual asynchronicity, which is important to make a change as big as this
less risky.
One thing worth calling out is that, if IO is actually executed
asynchronously, the precise meaning of what track_io_timing is measuring has
changed. Previously it tracked the time for each IO, but that does not make
sense when multiple IOs are executed concurrently. Now it only measures the
time actually spent waiting for IO. A subsequent commit will adjust the docs
for this.
While AIO is now actually used, the logic in read_stream.c will often prevent
using sufficiently many concurrent IOs. That will be addressed in the next
commit.

bufmgr: Implement AIO read support
This commit implements the infrastructure to perform asynchronous reads into
the buffer pool.
To do so, it:
- Adds readv AIO callbacks for shared and local buffers
It may be worth calling out that shared buffer completions may be run in a
different backend than where the IO started.
- Adds an AIO wait reference to BufferDesc, to allow backends to wait for
in-progress asynchronous IOs
- Adapts StartBufferIO(), WaitIO(), TerminateBufferIO(), and their localbuf.c
equivalents, to be able to deal with AIO
- Moves the code to handle BM_PIN_COUNT_WAITER into a helper function, as it
now also needs to be called on IO completion
As of this commit, nothing issues AIO on shared/local buffers. A future commit
will update StartReadBuffers() to do so.
Buffer reads executed through this infrastructure will report invalid page /
checksum errors / warnings differently than before:
In the error case the error message will cover all the blocks that were
included in the read, rather than just the reporting the first invalid
block. If more than one block is invalid, the error will include information
about the range of the read, the first invalid block and the number of invalid
pages, with a HINT towards the server log for per-block details.
For the warning case (i.e. zero_damaged_buffers) we would previously emit one
warning message for each buffer in a multi-block read. Now there is only a
single warning message for the entire read, again referring to the server log
for more details in case of multiple checksum failures within a single larger
read.

aio: Add WARNING result status
If an IO succeeds, but issues a warning, e.g. due to a page verification
failure with zero_damaged_pages, we want to issue that warning in the context
of the issuer of the IO, not the process that executes the completion (always
the case for worker).
It's already possible for a completion callback to report a custom error
message, we just didn't have a result status that allowed a user of AIO to
know that a warning should be emitted even though the IO request succeeded.
All that's needed for that is a dedicated PGAIO_RS_ value.
Previously there were not enough bits in PgAioResult.id for the new
value. Increase. While at that, add defines for the amount of bits and static
asserts to check that the widths are appropriate.

Let caller of PageIsVerified() control ignore_checksum_failure
For AIO the completion of a read into shared buffers (i.e. verifying the page

For AIO we execute completion callbacks in critical sections (to ensure that

pgstat_prepare_report_checksum_failure(), before entering a critical section,

localbuf: Track pincount in BufferDesc as well
For AIO on temporary table buffers the AIO subsystem needs to be able to
ensure a pin on a buffer while AIO is going on, even if the IO issuing query

cause CheckForLocalBufferLeaks() to assert out.
Instead, also track the refcount in BufferDesc.state, not just

Fix mis-attribution of checksum failure stats to the wrong database
Checksum failure stats could be attributed to the wrong database in two cases:
- when a read of a shared relation encountered a checksum error , it would be
attributed to the current database, instead of the "database" representing
shared relations
- when using CREATE DATABASE ... STRATEGY WAL_LOG checksum errors in the
source database would be attributed to the current database
The checksum stats reporting via PageIsVerifiedExtended(PIV_REPORT_STAT) does
not have access to the information about what database a page belongs to.
This fixes the issue by removing PIV_REPORT_STAT and delegating the
responsibility to report stats to the caller, which now can learn about the
number of stats via a new optional argument.
As this changes the signature of PageIsVerifiedExtended() and all callers
should adapt to the new signature, use the occasion to rename the function to
PageIsVerified() and remove the compatibility macro.
We could instead have fixed this by adding information about the database to
the args of PageIsVerified(), but there are soon-to-be-applied patches that
need to separate the stats reporting from the PageIsVerified() call
anyway. Those patches also include testing for the failure paths, something we
inexplicably have not had.
As there is no caller of pgstat_report_checksum_failure() left, remove it.
It'd be possible, but awkward to fix this in the back branches. We considered
doing the work not quite worth it, as mis-attributed stats should still elicit
concern. The emitted error messages do allow to attribute the errors
correctly.

measures that apply to all index AMs. This includes:

valid and not a temporary index from another session.
* changing (and then restoring) user's security context
* obtaining proper locks on the index (and table, if needed)
* discarding GUC changes from the index functions
Until now this was implemented in the B-Tree amcheck module, but it's

Tidy up locale thread safety in ECPG library.
Remove setlocale() and _configthreadlocal() as fallback strategy on
systems that don't have uselocale(), where ECPG tries to control
LC_NUMERIC formatting on input and output of floating point numbers. It
was probably broken on some systems (NetBSD), and the code was also
quite messy and complicated, with obsolete configure tests (Windows).
It was also arguably broken, or at least had unstated environmental
requirements, if pgtypeslib code was called directly.
Instead, introduce PG_C_LOCALE to refer to the "C" locale as a locale_t
value. It maps to the special constant LC_C_LOCALE when defined by libc
(macOS, NetBSD), or otherwise uses a process-lifetime locale_t that is
allocated on first use, just as ECPG previously did itself. The new
replacement might be more widely useful. Then change the float parsing
and printing code to pass that to _l() functions where appropriate.
Unfortunately the portability of those functions is a bit complicated.
First, many obvious and useful _l() functions are missing from POSIX,
though most standard libraries define some of them anyway. Second,
although the thread-safe save/restore technique can be used to replace
the missing ones, Windows and NetBSD refused to implement standard
uselocale(). They might have a point: "wide scope" uselocale() is hard
to combine with other code and error-prone, especially in library code.
Luckily they have the _l() functions we want so far anyway. So we have
to be prepared for both ways of doing things:
1. In ECPG, use strtod_l() for parsing, and supply a port.h replacement
using uselocale() over a limited scope if missing.
2. Inside our own snprintf.c, use three different approaches to format
floats. For frontend code, call libc's snprintf_l(), or wrap libc's
snprintf() in uselocale() if it's missing. For backend code, snprintf.c
can keep assuming that the global locale's LC_NUMERIC is "C" and call
libc's snprintf() without change, for now.
(It might eventually be possible to call our in-tree Ryū routines to
display floats in snprintf.c, given the C-locale-always remit of our
in-tree snprintf(), but this patch doesn't risk changing anything that
complicated.)

thread-safe.
3. For macOS/*BSD, use localeconv_l(), which is thread-safe.

- Service file with valid service name and its section.
- Service file at the root of PGSYSCONFDIR, named pg_service.conf.

- Service name defined as a connection parameter or as PGSERVICE.

Fix query jumbling to account for NULL nodes
Previously NULL nodes were ignored. This could cause issues where the
computed query ID could match for queries where fields that are next to
each other in their Node struct where one field was NULL and the other
non-NULL. For example, the Query struct had distinctClause and sortClause
next to each other. If someone wrote;
SELECT DISTINCT c1 FROM t;
and then;
SELECT c1 FROM t ORDER BY c1;
these would produce the same query ID since, in the first query, we
ignored the NULL sortClause and appended the jumble bytes for the
distictClause. In the latter query, since we did nothing for the NULL
distinctClause then jumble the non-NULL sortClause, and since the node
representation stored is the same in both cases, the query IDs were
identical.
Here we fix this by always accounting for NULL nodes by recording that
we saw a NULL in the jumble buffer. This fixes the issue as the order that
the NULL is recorded isn't the same in the above two queries.

filter. As a consequence, the index may be missing some of the data, and
return false negatives.
This issue exists since BRIN bloom indexes were introduced in Postgres
14, but at that point the union function was called only when two
sessions happened to summarize a range concurrently, which is rare. It
got much easier to hit in 17, as parallel builds use the union function
to merge summaries built by workers.
Fixed by storing a pointer to the decompressed filter, and freeing the
original one. Free the second filter too, if it was decompressed. The
freeing is not strictly necessary, because the union is called in
short-lived contexts, but it's tidy.
Backpatch to 14, where BRIN bloom indexes were introduced.

Use PG_MODULE_MAGIC_EXT in our installable shared libraries.
It seems potentially useful to label our shared libraries with version
information, now that a facility exists for retrieving that. This
patch labels them with the PG_VERSION string. There was some
discussion about using semantic versioning conventions, but that
doesn't seem terribly helpful for modules with no SQL-level presence;
and for those that do have SQL objects, we typically expect them
to support multiple revisions of the SQL definitions, so it'd still
not be very helpful.
I did not label any of src/test/modules/. It seems unnecessary since
we don't install those, and besides there ought to be someplace that
still provides test coverage for the original PG_MODULE_MAGIC macro.

Introduce PG_MODULE_MAGIC_EXT macro.
This macro allows dynamically loaded shared libraries (modules) to
provide a wired-in module name and version, and possibly other
compile-time-constant fields in future. This information can be
retrieved with the new pg_get_loaded_modules() function.
This feature is expected to be particularly useful for modules
that do not have any exposed SQL functionality and thus are
not associated with a SQL-level extension object. But even for
modules that do belong to extensions, being able to verify the
actual code version can be useful.

Move GSSAPI includes into its own header
Due to a conflict in macro names on Windows between <wincrypt.h>
and <openssl/ssl.h> these headers need to be included using a
predictable pattern with an undef to handle that. The GSSAPI
header <gssapi.h> does include <wincrypt.h> which cause problems
with compiling PostgreSQL using MSVC when OpenSSL and GSSAPI are
both enabled in the tree. Rather than fixing piecemeal for each
file including gssapi headers, move the the includes and undef
to a new file which should be used to centralize the logic.
This patch is a reworked version of a patch by Imran Zaheer
proposed earlier in the thread. Once this has proven effective
in master we should look at backporting this as the problem
exist at least since v16.

Use relation name instead of OID in query jumbling for RangeTblEntry
custom_query_jumble (introduced in
5ac462e2b7ac as a node field
attribute) is now assigned to the expanded reference name "eref" of
RangeTblEntry, adding in the query jumble computation the non-qualified
aliased relation name, without the list of column names. The relation
OID is removed from the query jumbling.
The effects of this change can be seen in the tests added by
3430215fe35f, where pg_stat_statements (PGSS) entries are now grouped
using the relation name, ignoring the relation search_path may point at.
For example, these two relations are different, but are now grouped in a
single PGSS entry as they are assigned the same query ID:
CREATE TABLE foo1.tab (a int);
CREATE TABLE foo2.tab (b int);
SET search_path = 'foo1';
SELECT count(*) FROM tab;
SET search_path = 'foo2';
SELECT count(*) FROM tab;
SELECT count(*) FROM foo1.tab;
SELECT count(*) FROM foo2.tab;
SELECT query, calls FROM pg_stat_statements WHERE query ~ 'FROM tab';
query | calls
--------------------------+-------
SELECT count(*) FROM tab | 4
(1 row)
It is still possible to use an alias in the FROM clause to split these.
This behavior is useful for relations re-created with the same name,
where queries based on such relations would be grouped in the same
PGSS entry. For permanent schemas, it should not really matter in
practice. The main benefit is for workloads that use a lot of temporary
relations, which are usually re-created with the same name continuously.
These can be a heavy source of bloat in PGSS depending on the workload.
Such entries can now be grouped together, improving the user experience.
The original idea from Christoph Berg used catalog lookups to find
temporary relations, something that the query jumble has never done, and
it could cause some performance regressions. The idea to use
RangeTblEntry.eref and the relation name, applying the same rules for
all relations, temporary and not temporary, has been proposed by Tom
Lane. The documentation additions have been suggested by Sami Imseih.
