Allow pg_createsubscriber to reuse existing publications instead of
failing when they already exist on the publisher.
Previously, pg_createsubscriber would fail if any specified publication
already existed. Now, existing publications are reused as-is with their
current configuration, and non-existing publications are created
automatically with FOR ALL TABLES.
This change provides flexibility when working with mixed scenarios of
existing and new publications. Users should verify that existing
publications have the desired configuration before reusing them, and can
use --dry-run with verbose mode to see which publications will be reused
and which will be created.
Only publications created by pg_createsubscriber are cleaned up during
error cleanup operations. Pre-existing publications are preserved unless
'--clean=publications' is explicitly specified, which drops all
publications.
This feature would be helpful for pub-sub configurations where users want
to subscribe to a subset of tables from the publisher.

This new DDL command splits a single partition into several partitions. Just
like the ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS ... command, new partitions are
created using the createPartitionTable() function with the parent partition
as the template.
This commit comprises a quite naive implementation which works in a single
process and holds the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE LOCK on the parent table during all
the operations, including the tuple routing. This is why the new DDL command
can't be recommended for large, partitioned tables under high load. However,
this implementation comes in handy in certain cases, even as it is. Also, it
could serve as a foundation for future implementations with less locking and
possibly parallelism.

This eliminates MultiXactOffset wraparound and the 2^32 limit on the
total number of multixid members. Multixids are still limited to 2^31,
but this is a nice improvement because 'members' can grow much faster
than the number of multixids. On such systems, you can now run longer
before hitting hard limits or triggering anti-wraparound vacuums.
Not having to deal with MultiXactOffset wraparound also simplifies the
code and removes some gnarly corner cases.
We no longer need to perform emergency anti-wraparound freezing
because of running out of 'members' space, so the offset stop limit is
gone. But you might still not want 'members' to consume huge amounts
of disk space. For that reason, I kept the logic for lowering vacuum's
multixid freezing cutoff if a large amount of 'members' space is
used. The thresholds for that are roughly the same as the "safe" and
"danger" thresholds used before, 2 billion transactions and 4 billion
transactions. This keeps the behavior for the freeze cutoff roughly
the same as before. It might make sense to make this smarter or
configurable, now that the threshold is only needed to manage disk
usage, but that's left for the future.
Add code to pg_upgrade to convert multitransactions from the old to
the new format, rewriting the pg_multixact SLRU files. Because
pg_upgrade now rewrites the files, we can get rid of some hacks we had
put in place to deal with old bugs and upgraded clusters. Bump catalog
version for the pg_multixact/offsets format change.

that deferrable constraints cannot be used as conflict arbitrators in
an INSERT with an ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE clause, but in fact this

The documentation for CREATE/ALTER PUBLICATION previously showed:
[ ONLY ] table_name [ * ] [ ( column_name [, ... ] ) ] [ WHERE ( expression ) ] [, ... ]
to indicate that the table/column specification could be repeated.
However, placing [, ... ] directly after a multi-part construct was
misleading and made it unclear which portion was repeatable.
This commit introduces a new term, table_and_columns, to represent:
[ ONLY ] table_name [ * ] [ ( column_name [, ... ] ) ] [ WHERE ( expression ) ]
and updates the synopsis to use:
table_and_columns [, ... ]
which clearly identifies the repeatable element.
Backpatched to v15, where the misleading syntax was introduced.

On the CREATE POLICY page, the "Policies Applied by Command Type"
table was missing MERGE ... THEN DELETE and some of the policies
applied during INSERT ... ON CONFLICT and MERGE. Fix that, and try to
improve readability by listing the various MERGE cases separately,
rather than together with INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Mention COPY ... TO
along with SELECT, since it behaves in the same way. In addition,
document which policy violations cause errors to be thrown, and which
just cause rows to be silently ignored.
Also, a paragraph above the table states that INSERT ... ON CONFLICT
DO UPDATE only checks the WITH CHECK expressions of INSERT policies
for rows appended to the relation by the INSERT path, which is
incorrect -- all rows proposed for insertion are checked, regardless
of whether they end up being inserted. Fix that, and also mention that
the same applies to INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING.
In addition, in various other places on that page, clarify how the
different types of policy are applied to different commands, and
whether or not errors are thrown when policy checks do not pass.
Backpatch to all supported versions. Prior to v17, MERGE did not
support RETURNING, and so MERGE ... THEN INSERT would never check new
rows against SELECT policies. Prior to v15, MERGE was not supported at
all.

WAIT FOR is to be used on standby and specifies waiting for
the specific WAL location to be replayed. This option is useful when
the user makes some data changes on primary and needs a guarantee to see
these changes are on standby.
WAIT FOR needs to wait without any snapshot held. Otherwise, the snapshot
could prevent the replay of WAL records, implying a kind of self-deadlock.
This is why separate utility command seems appears to be the most robust
way to implement this functionality. It's not possible to implement this as
a function. Previous experience shows that stored procedures also have
limitation in this aspect.

We have never had a SET syntax that allows setting a GUC_LIST_INPUT
parameter to be an empty list. A locution such as
SET search_path = '';
doesn't mean that; it means setting the GUC to contain a single item
that is an empty string. (For search_path the net effect is much the
same, because search_path ignores invalid schema names and '' must be
invalid.) This is confusing, not least because configuration-file
entries and the set_config() function can easily produce empty-list
values.
We considered making the empty-string syntax do this, but that would
foreclose ever allowing empty-string items to be valid in list GUCs.
While there isn't any obvious use-case for that today, it feels like
the kind of restriction that might hurt someday. Instead, let's
accept the forbidden-up-to-now value NULL and treat that as meaning an
empty list. (An objection to this could be "what if we someday want
to allow NULL as a GUC value?". That seems unlikely though, and even
if we did allow it for scalar GUCs, we could continue to treat it as
meaning an empty list for list GUCs.)

This commit makes the way WAL segments are handled from the source to
the target server slightly smarter: the copy of the WAL segments is now
skipped if these have been created before the point where source and
target have diverged (the WAL segment where the point of divergence
exists is still copied), because we know that such segments exist on
both the target and source. Note that the on-disk size of the WAL
segments on the source and target need to match. Hence, only the
segments generated after the point of divergence are now copied. A
segment existing on the source but not the target is copied.
Previously, all the WAL segments were just copied in full. This change
can make the rewind operation cheaper in some configurations, especially
for setups where some WAL retention causes many segments to remain on
the source server even after the promotion of a standby used as source
to rewind a previous primary.
A TAP test is added to track these new behaviors. The file map printed
with --debug now includes all the information related to WAL segments,
to be able to track if these are copied or skipped, and the test relies
on the debug output generated.

This patch adds support for a new SQL command:
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... REFRESH SEQUENCES
This command updates the sequence entries present in the
pg_subscription_rel catalog table with the INIT state to trigger
resynchronization.
In addition to the new command, the following subscription commands have
been enhanced to automatically refresh sequence mappings:
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... REFRESH PUBLICATION
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... ADD PUBLICATION
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... DROP PUBLICATION
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... SET PUBLICATION
These commands will perform the following actions:
Add newly published sequences that are not yet part of the subscription.
Remove sequences that are no longer included in the publication.
This ensures that sequence replication remains aligned with the current
state of the publication on the publisher side.
Note that the actual synchronization of sequence data/values will be
handled in a subsequent patch that introduces a dedicated sequence sync
worker.

Previously, COPY TO command didn't support directly specifying
partitioned tables so users had to use COPY (SELECT ...) TO variant.
This commit adds direct COPY TO support for partitioned
tables, improving both usability and performance. Performance tests
show it's faster than the COPY (SELECT ...) TO variant as it avoids
the overheads of query processing and sending results to the COPY TO
command.
When used with partitioned tables, COPY TO copies the same rows as
SELECT * FROM table. Row-level security policies of the partitioned
table are applied in the same way as when executing COPY TO on a plain
table.

Previously, attempting to use pg_checksums on a cluster with a control
file whose version does not match with what thetool is able to support
would lead to the following error:
pg_checksums: error: pg_control CRC value is incorrect
This is confusing, because it would look like the control file is
corrupted. However, the contents of the control file are correct,
pg_checksums not being able to understand how the past control file is
shaped.
This commit adds a check based on PG_VERSION, using the facility added
by cd0be131ba6f, using the same error message as some of the other
frontend tools. A note is added in the documentation about the major
version requirement.

The log output functionality of log_autovacuum_min_duration applies to
both VACUUM and ANALYZE, so it is not possible to separate the VACUUM
and ANALYZE log output thresholds. Logs are likely to be output only for
VACUUM and not for ANALYZE.
Therefore, we decided to separate the threshold for log output of VACUUM
by autovacuum (log_autovacuum_min_duration) and the threshold for log
output of ANALYZE by autovacuum (log_autoanalyze_min_duration).

There was some confusion around how to adjust the n_distinct estimates
for partitioned tables. Here we try and clarify that
n_distinct_inherited needs to be adjusted rather than n_distinct.
Also fix some slightly misleading text which was talking about table
size rather than table rows, fix a grammatical error, and adjust some
text which indicated that ANALYZE was performing calculations based on
the n_distinct settings. Really it's the query planner that does this
and ANALYZE only stores the overridden n_distinct estimate value in
pg_statistic.

This patch adds support for the ALL SEQUENCES clause in publications,
enabling synchronization/replication of all sequences that is useful for
upgrades.
Publications can now include all sequences via FOR ALL SEQUENCES.
psql enhancements:
\d shows publications for a given sequence.
\dRp indicates if a publication includes all sequences.
ALL SEQUENCES can be combined with ALL TABLES, but not with other options
like TABLE or TABLES IN SCHEMA. We can extend support for more granular
clauses in future.
The view pg_publication_sequences provides information about the mapping
between publications and sequences.
This patch enables publishing of sequences; subscriber-side support will
be added in upcoming patches.

This patch reuses the existing aggtransspace in pg_aggregate to
signal that an aggregate's transition state can grow unboundedly. If
aggtransspace is set to a negative value, it now indicates that the
transition state may consume unpredictable or large amounts of memory,
such as in aggregates like array_agg or string_agg that accumulate
input rows.
This information can be used by the planner to avoid applying
memory-sensitive optimizations (e.g., eager aggregation) when there is
a risk of excessive memory usage during partial aggregation.
Bump catalog version.
Per idea from Robert Haas, though applied differently than originally
suggested.

GROUP BY ALL is a form of GROUP BY that adds any TargetExpr that does
not contain an aggregate or window function into the groupClause of
the query, making it exactly equivalent to specifying those same
expressions in an explicit GROUP BY list.
This feature is useful for certain kinds of data exploration. It's
already present in some other DBMSes, and the SQL committee recently
accepted it into the standard, so we can be reasonably confident in
the syntax being stable. We do have to invent part of the semantics,
as the standard doesn't allow for expressions in GROUP BY, so they
haven't specified what to do with window functions. We assume that
those should be treated like aggregates, i.e., left out of the
constructed GROUP BY list.
In passing, wordsmith some existing documentation about GROUP BY,
and update some neglected synopsis entries in select_into.sgml.

This reverts commit 98fc31d6499163a0a781aa6f13582a07f09cd7c6.
That change allowed DROP OWNED BY to drop grants of the target
role to other roles, arguing that nobody would need those
privileges anymore. But that's not so: if you're not superuser,
you still need admin privilege on the target role so you can
drop it.
It's not clear whether or how the dependency-based approach
to solving the original problem can be adapted to keep these
grants. Since v18 release is fast approaching, the sanest
thing to do seems to be to revert this patch for now. The
race-condition problem is low severity and not worth taking
risks for.
I didn't force a catversion bump in 98fc31d64, so I won't do
so here either.

This commit introduces a new subscription parameter,
max_retention_duration, aimed at mitigating excessive accumulation of dead
tuples when retain_dead_tuples is enabled and the apply worker lags behind
the publisher.
When the time spent advancing a non-removable transaction ID exceeds the
max_retention_duration threshold, the apply worker will stop retaining
conflict detection information. In such cases, the conflict slot's xmin
will be set to InvalidTransactionId, provided that all apply workers
associated with the subscription (with retain_dead_tuples enabled) confirm
the retention duration has been exceeded.
To ensure retention status persists across server restarts, a new column
subretentionactive has been added to the pg_subscription catalog. This
prevents unnecessary reactivation of retention logic after a restart.
The conflict detection slot will not be automatically re-initialized
unless a new subscription is created with retain_dead_tuples = true, or
the user manually re-enables retain_dead_tuples.
A future patch will introduce support for automatic slot re-initialization
once at least one apply worker confirms that the retention duration is
within the configured max_retention_duration.

When vacuumdb's --missing-stats-only option is used, the catalog
query for retrieving the list of relations to process must read
pg_statistic and pg_statistic_ext_data. However, those catalogs
can only be read by superusers by default, so --missing-stats-only
is effectively superuser-only. This is unfortunate, but since the
option is primarily intended for use by administrators after
running pg_upgrade, let's just live with it for v18. This commit
adds a note about the aforementioned privilege requirements to the
documentation for --missing-stats-only.
We first tried to improve matters by modifying the query to read
the pg_stats and pg_stats_ext system views instead. While that is
indeed more lenient from a privilege standpoint, it is also
borderline incomprehensible. pg_stats shows rows for which the
user has the SELECT privilege on the corresponding column, and
pg_stats_ext shows rows for tables the user owns. Meanwhile,
ANALYZE requires either MAINTAIN on the table or, for non-shared
relations, ownership of the database. But even if the privilege
discrepancies were tolerable, the performance impact was not.
Ultimately, the modified query was substantially more expensive, so
we abandoned the idea.
For v19, perhaps we could introduce a simple, inexpensive way to
discover which relations are missing statistics, such as a system
function or view with similar privilege requirements to ANALYZE.
Unfortunately, it is far too late for anything like that in v18.

vacuumdb should follow the behavior of the underlying VACUUM and ANALYZE
commands. When --analyze-only is used, it ought to analyze regular tables,
materialized views, and partitioned tables, just as ANALYZE (with no explicit
target tables) does. Otherwise, it should only process regular tables and
materialized views, since VACUUM skips partitioned tables when no targets
are given.
Previously, vacuumdb --analyze-only skipped partitioned tables. This was
inconsistent, and also inconvenient after pg_upgrade, where --analyze-only
is typically used to gather missing statistics.
This commit fixes the behavior so that vacuumdb --analyze-only also processes
partitioned tables. As a result, both vacuumdb --analyze-only and
ANALYZE (with no explicit targets) now analyze regular tables,
partitioned tables, and materialized views, but not foreign tables.
Because this is a nontrivial behavior change, it is applied only to master.

A malicious server could inject psql meta-commands into plain-text
dump output (i.e., scripts created with pg_dump --format=plain,
pg_dumpall, or pg_restore --file) that are run at restore time on
the machine running psql. To fix, introduce a new "restricted"
mode in psql that blocks all meta-commands (except for \unrestrict
to exit the mode), and teach pg_dump, pg_dumpall, and pg_restore to
use this mode in plain-text dumps.
While at it, encourage users to only restore dumps generated from
trusted servers or to inspect it beforehand, since restoring causes
the destination to execute arbitrary code of the source superusers'
choice. However, the client running the dump and restore needn't
trust the source or destination superusers.

ALTER TABLE ... SET EXPRESSION AS removes statistics for the target column,
so running ANALYZE afterward is recommended. But this was previously not
documented, even though a similar recommendation exists for
ALTER TABLE ... SET DATA TYPE, which also clears the column's statistics.
This commit updates the documentation to include the ANALYZE recommendation
for SET EXPRESSION AS.
Since v18, virtual generated columns are supported, and these columns never
have statistics. Therefore, ANALYZE is not needed after SET DATA TYPE or
SET EXPRESSION AS when used on virtual generated columns. This commit also
updates the documentation to clarify that ANALYZE is unnecessary in such cases.
Back-patch the ANALYZE recommendation for SET EXPRESSION AS to v17
where the feature was introduced, and the note about virtual generated
columns to v18 where those columns were added.

It's possible to use a CHECK (col IS NOT NULL) constraint to skip
scanning a table for nulls when adding a NOT NULL constraint on the same
column. However, if the CHECK constraint is dropped on the same command
that the NOT NULL is added, this fails, i.e., makes the NOT NULL addition
slow. The best we can do about it at this stage is to document this so
that users aren't taken by surprise.
(In Postgres 18 you can directly add the NOT NULL constraint as NOT
VALID instead, so there's no longer much use for the CHECK constraint,
therefore no point in building mechanism to support the case better.)

This enhancement builds upon the infrastructure introduced in commit
228c370868, which enables the preservation of deleted tuples and their
origin information on the subscriber. This capability is crucial for
handling concurrent transactions replicated from remote nodes.
The update introduces support for detecting update_deleted conflicts
during the application of update operations on the subscriber. When an
update operation fails to locate the target row-typically because it has
been concurrently deleted-we perform an additional table scan. This scan
uses the SnapshotAny mechanism and we do this additional scan only when
the retain_dead_tuples option is enabled for the relevant subscription.
The goal of this scan is to locate the most recently deleted tuple-matching
the old column values from the remote update-that has not yet been removed
by VACUUM and is still visible according to our slot (i.e., its deletion
is not older than conflict-detection-slot's xmin). If such a tuple is
found, the system reports an update_deleted conflict, including the origin
and transaction details responsible for the deletion.
This provides a groundwork for more robust and accurate conflict
resolution process, preventing unexpected behavior by correctly
identifying cases where a remote update clashes with a deletion from
another origin.
