The tests in 002_blocks.pl are failing in the buildfarm from time to
time, but we don't know how to reproduce the failure elsewhere. The
most obvious explanation seems to be the unexpected disappearance of a
WAL summary file, so bump up the logging level in
RemoveWalSummaryIfOlderThan to try to help us spot such problems, and
print the cutoff time in addition to the removed filename. Also
adjust 002_blocks.pl to dump out a directory listing of the relevant
directory at various points.
This patch should be reverted once we sort out what's happening here.

This makes it possible to access information about the progress
of WAL summarization from SQL. The previously-added functions
pg_available_wal_summaries() and pg_wal_summary_contents() only
examine on-disk state, but this function exposes information from
the server's shared memory.

Recently-introduced code in reconstruct.c was using "unsigned"
to store the result of read(), pg_pread(), or write(). This is
completely bogus: it breaks subsequent tests for the result being
negative, as we're being reminded of by a chorus of buildfarm
warnings. Switch to "int" as was doubtless intended. (There are
several other uses of "unsigned" in this file that also look poorly
chosen to me, but for now I'm just trying to clean up the buildfarm.)
A larger problem is that "int" is not necessarily wide enough to hold
the result: per POSIX, all these functions return ssize_t. In places
where the requested read or write length clearly fits in int, that's
academic. It may be academic anyway as long as we constrain
individual data files to 1GB, since even a readv or writev-like
operation would then not be responsible for transferring more than
1GB. Nonetheless it seems like trouble waiting to happen, so I made
a pass over readv and writev calls and fixed the result variables
where that seemed appropriate. We might want to think about changing
some of the fd.c functions to return ssize_t too, for future-proofing;
but I didn't tackle that here.

To take an incremental backup, you use the new replication command
UPLOAD_MANIFEST to upload the manifest for the prior backup. This
prior backup could either be a full backup or another incremental
backup. You then use BASE_BACKUP with the INCREMENTAL option to take
the backup. pg_basebackup now has an --incremental=PATH_TO_MANIFEST
option to trigger this behavior.
An incremental backup is like a regular full backup except that
some relation files are replaced with files with names like
INCREMENTAL.${ORIGINAL_NAME}, and the backup_label file contains
additional lines identifying it as an incremental backup. The new
pg_combinebackup tool can be used to reconstruct a data directory
from a full backup and a series of incremental backups.

When active, this process writes WAL summary files to
$PGDATA/pg_wal/summaries. Each summary file contains information for a
certain range of LSNs on a certain TLI. For each relation, it stores a
"limit block" which is 0 if a relation is created or destroyed within
a certain range of WAL records, or otherwise the shortest length to
which the relation was truncated during that range of WAL records, or
otherwise InvalidBlockNumber. In addition, it stores a list of blocks
which have been modified during that range of WAL records, but
excluding blocks which were removed by truncation after they were
modified and never subsequently modified again.
In other words, it tells us which blocks need to copied in case of an
incremental backup covering that range of WAL records. But this
doesn't yet add the capability to actually perform an incremental
backup; the next patch will do that.
A new parameter summarize_wal enables or disables this new background
process. The background process also automatically deletes summary
files that are older than wal_summarize_keep_time, if that parameter
has a non-zero value and the summarizer is configured to run.

Previously, it thought that any plain file located under global, base,
or a tablespace directory had checksums unless it was in a short list
of excluded files. Now, it thinks that files in those directories have
checksums if parse_filename_for_nontemp_relation says that they are
relation files. (Temporary relation files don't matter because they're
excluded from the backup anyway.)
This changes the behavior if you have stray files not managed by
PostgreSQL in the relevant directories. Previously, you'd get some
kind of checksum-related complaint if such files existed, assuming
that the cluster had checksums enabled and that the base backup
wasn't run with NOVERIFY_CHECKSUMS. Now, you won't get those
complaints any more. That seems like an improvement to me, because
those files were presumably not created by PostgreSQL and so there
is no reason to think that they would be checksummed like a
PostgreSQL relation file. (If we want to complain about such files,
we should complain about them existing at all, not just about their
checksums.)
The point of this change is to make the code more consistent.
sendDir() was already calling parse_filename_for_nontemp_relation()
as part of an effort to determine which files to include in the
backup. So, it already had the information about whether a certain
file was a relation file. sendFile() then used a separate method,
embodied in is_checksummed_file(), to make what is essentially
the same determination. It's better not to make the same decision
using two different methods, especially in closely-related code.

also to Jakub Wartak and Peter Eisentraut for comments, suggestions,

sendFileWithContent() previously got the content length by using
strlen(), assuming that the content given is always a string. Some
patches are under discussion to pass binary contents to a base backup
stream, where an arbitrary length needs to be given by the caller
instead.
The patch extends sendFileWithContent() to be able to handle this case,
where len < 0 can be used to indicate an arbitrary length rather than
rely on strlen() for the content length.
A comment in sendFileWithContent() mentioned the backup_label file.
However, this routine is used by more file types, like the tablespace
map, so adjust it in passing.

This shouldn't change behavior except in the unusual case where
there are file in the tablespace directory that have entirely
numeric names but are nevertheless not possible names for a
tablespace directory, either because their names have leading zeroes
that shouldn't be there, or the value is actually zero, or because
the value is too large to represent as an OID.
In those cases, the directory would previously have made it into
the list of tablespaceinfo objects and no longer will. Thus, base
backups will now ignore such directories, instead of treating them
as legitimate tablespace directories. Similarly, if entries for
such tablespaces occur in a tablespace_map file, they will now
be rejected as erroneous, instead of being honored.
This is infrastructure for future work that wants to be able to
know the tablespace of each relation that is part of a backup
*as an OID*. By strengthening the up-front validation, we don't
have to worry about weird cases later, and can more easily avoid
repeated string->integer conversions.

Instead of returning the number of characters in the RelFileNumber,
return the RelFileNumber itself. Continue to return the fork number,
as before, and additionally return the segment number.
parse_filename_for_nontemp_relation now rejects a RelFileNumber or
segment number that begins with a leading zero. Before, we accepted
such cases as relation filenames, but if we continued to do so after
this change, the function might return the same values for two
different files (e.g. 1234.5 and 001234.5 or 1234.005) which could be
annoying for callers. Since we don't actually ever generate filenames
with leading zeroes in the names, any such files that we find must
have been created by something other than PostgreSQL, and it is
therefore reasonable to treat them as non-relation files.
Along the way, change unlogged_relation_entry to store a RelFileNumber
rather than an OID. This update should have been made in
851f4cc75cdd8c831f1baa9a7abf8c8248b65890, but it was overlooked.
It's trivial to make the update as part of this commit, perhaps more
trivial than it would have been without it, so do that.

This further reduces the length and complexity of sendFile(),
hopefully make it easier to understand and modify. In addition
to moving some logic into a new function, I took this opportunity
to make a few slight adjustments to sendFile() itself, including
renaming the 'len' variable to 'bytes_done', since we use it to represent
the number of bytes we've already handled so far, not the total
length of the file.

This set of diffs is a bit larger than typical. We've updated to
pg_bsd_indent 2.1.2, which properly indents variable declarations that
have multi-line initialization expressions (the continuation lines are

We read blocks of data from files that we're backing up in chunks,
some multiple of BLCKSZ for each read. If checksum verification fails,
we then try rereading just the one block for which validation failed.
If that block happened to be the first block of the chunk, and if
the file was concurrently truncated to remove that block, then we'd
reach a call to bbsink_archive_contents() with a buffer length of 0.
That causes an assertion failure.
As far as I can see, there are no particularly bad consequences if
this happens in a non-assert build, and it's pretty unlikely to happen
in the first place because it requires a series of somewhat unlikely
things to happen in very quick succession. However, assertion failures
are bad, so rearrange the code to avoid that possibility.

We'd like to use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds with the stop_time
possibly being TIMESTAMP_INFINITY, but up to now it's disclaimed
responsibility for overflow cases. Define it to clamp its output to
the range [0, INT_MAX], handling overflow correctly. (INT_MAX rather
than LONG_MAX seems appropriate, because the function is already
described as being intended for calculating wait times for WaitLatch
et al, and that infrastructure only handles waits up to INT_MAX.
Also, this choice gets rid of cross-platform behavioral differences.)
Having done that, we can replace some ad-hoc code in walreceiver.c
with a simple call to TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds.
While at it, fix some buglets in existing callers of
TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds: basebackup_copy.c had not read the
memo about TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds never returning a negative
value, and postmaster.c had not read the memo about Min() and Max()
being macros with multiple-evaluation hazards. Neither of these
quite seem worth back-patching.

Most callers of BufFileRead() want to check whether they read the full

This patch provides additional variants BufFileReadExact() and
BufFileReadMaybeEOF() that include the length checks.
I considered changing BufFileRead() itself, but this function is also
used in extensions, and so changing the behavior like this would
create a lot of problems there. The new names are analogous to the

Because we added StaticAssertStmt() first before StaticAssertDecl(),
some uses as well as the instructions in c.h are now a bit backwards
from the "native" way static assertions are meant to be used in C.
This updates the guidance and moves some static assertions to better
places.
Specifically, since the addition of StaticAssertDecl(), we can put
static assertions at the file level. This moves a number of static
assertions out of function bodies, where they might have been stuck
out of necessity, to perhaps better places at the file level or in
header files.
Also, when the static assertion appears in a position where a
declaration is allowed, then using StaticAssertDecl() is more native
than StaticAssertStmt().

If sendFileWithContent were used to send a file larger than the
bbsink buffer size, this would result in corruption. The only
files that are sent via sendFileWithContent are the backup label
file, the tablespace map file, and .done files for WAL segments
included in the backup. Of these, it seems that only the
tablespace_map file can become large enough to cause a problem,
and then only if you have a lot of tablespaces. If you do have
that situation, you might end up with a corrupted
tablespace_map file, which would be bad.

Commits cf112c12 and a0dc8271 were a little too hasty in getting rid of
the pg_ prefixes where we use pread(), pwrite() and vectored variants.
We dropped support for ancient Unixes where we needed to use lseek() to
implement replacements for those, but it turns out that Windows also
changes the current position even when you pass in an offset to
ReadFile() and WriteFile() if the file handle is synchronous, despite
its documentation saying otherwise.
Switching to asynchronous file handles would fix that, but have other
complications. For now let's just put back the pg_ prefix and add some
comments to highlight the non-standard side-effect, which we can now
describe as Windows-only.

There are still some alignment-related failures in the buildfarm,
which might or might not be able to be fixed quickly, but I've also
just realized that it increased the size of many WAL records by 4 bytes
because a block reference contains a RelFileLocator. The effect of that
hasn't been studied or discussed, so revert for now.
|

RelFileNumbers are now assigned using a separate counter, instead of
being assigned from the OID counter. This counter never wraps around:
if all 2^56 possible RelFileNumbers are used, an internal error
occurs. As the cluster is limited to 2^64 total bytes of WAL, this
limitation should not cause a problem in practice.
If the counter were 64 bits wide rather than 56 bits wide, we would
need to increase the width of the BufferTag, which might adversely
impact buffer lookup performance. Also, this lets us use bigint for
pg_class.relfilenode and other places where these values are exposed
at the SQL level without worrying about overflow.
This should remove the need to keep "tombstone" files around until
the next checkpoint when relations are removed. We do that to keep
RelFileNumbers from being recycled, but now that won't happen
anyway. However, this patch doesn't actually change anything in
this area; it just makes it possible for a future patch to do so.

This change simplifies some of the logic related to the generation and
creation of the backup_label and backup history files, which has become
unnecessarily complicated since the removal of the exclusive backup mode
in commit 39969e2. The code was previously generating the contents of
these files as a string (start phase for the backup_label and stop phase
for the backup history file), one problem being that the contents of the
backup_label string were scanned to grab some of its internal contents
at the stop phase.
This commit changes the logic so as we store the data required to build
these files in an intermediate structure named BackupState. The
backup_label file and backup history file strings are generated when
they are ready to be sent back to the client. Both files are now
generated with the same code path. While on it, this commit renames
some variables for clarity.
Two new files named xlogbackup.{c,h} are introduced in this commit, to
remove from xlog.c some of the logic around base backups. Note that
more could be moved to this new set of files.

Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle
it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow
incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for
developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other
issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together
they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system.
After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a
good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects.
We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of
the new build system and mature it in tree.
This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports
building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For
Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for
incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but
building slower).
Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM
bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits
requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only
extensions) are not yet addressed.
When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual
studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support
MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism.
The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon
after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the
autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at
least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported

Make sure that function declarations use names that exactly match the
corresponding names from function definitions in optimizer, parser,
utility, libpq, and "commands" code, as well as in remaining library
code. Do the same for all code related to frontend programs (with the
exception of pg_dump/pg_dumpall related code).
Like other recent commits that cleaned up function parameter names, this
commit was written with help from clang-tidy. Later commits will handle
ecpg and pg_dump/pg_dumpall.

PG_COMPRESSION_OPTION_LEVEL is removed from the compression
specification logic, and instead the compression level is always
assigned with each library's default if nothing is directly given. This
centralizes the checks on the compression methods supported by a given
build, and always assigns a default compression level when parsing a
compression specification. This results in complaining at an earlier
stage than previously if a build supports a compression method or not,
aka when parsing a specification in the backend or the frontend, and not
when processing it. zstd, lz4 and zlib are able to handle in their
respective routines setting up the compression level the case of a
default value, hence the backend or frontend code (pg_receivewal or
pg_basebackup) has now no need to know what the default compression
level should be if nothing is specified: the logic is now done so as the
specification parsing assigns it. It can also be enforced by passing
down a "level" set to the default value, that the backend will accept
(the replication protocol is for example able to handle a command like
BASE_BACKUP (COMPRESSION_DETAIL 'gzip:level=-1')).
This code simplification fixes an issue with pg_basebackup --gzip
introduced by ffd5365, where the tarball of the streamed WAL segments
would be created as of pg_wal.tar.gz with uncompressed contents, while
the intention is to compress the segments with gzip at a default level.
The origin of the confusion comes from the handling of the default
compression level of gzip (-1 or Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION) and the value of
0 was getting assigned, which is what walmethods.c would consider
as equivalent to no compression when streaming WAL segments with its tar
methods. Assigning always the compression level removes the confusion
of some code paths considering a value of 0 set in a specification as
either no compression or a default compression level.
Note that 010_pg_basebackup.pl has to be adjusted to skip a few tests
where the shape of the compression detail string for client and
server-side compression was checked using gzip. This is a result of the
code simplification, as gzip specifications cannot be used if a build
does not support it.

guc.c has grown to be one of our largest .c files, making it
a bottleneck for compilation. It's also acquired a bunch of
knowledge that'd be better kept elsewhere, because of our not
very good habit of putting variable-specific check hooks here.
Hence, split it up along these lines:
* guc.c itself retains just the core GUC housekeeping mechanisms.
* New file guc_funcs.c contains the SET/SHOW interfaces and some
SQL-accessible functions for GUC manipulation.
* New file guc_tables.c contains the data arrays that define the
built-in GUC variables, along with some already-exported constant
tables.
* GUC check/assign/show hook functions are moved to the variable's
home module, whenever that's clearly identifiable. A few hard-
to-classify hooks ended up in commands/variable.c, which was
already a home for miscellaneous GUC hook functions.
To avoid cluttering a lot more header files with #include "guc.h",
I also invented a new header file utils/guc_hooks.h and put all
the GUC hook functions' declarations there, regardless of their
originating module. That allowed removal of #include "guc.h"
from some existing headers. The fallout from that (hopefully
all caught here) demonstrates clearly why such inclusions are
best minimized: there are a lot of files that, for example,
were getting array.h at two or more levels of remove, despite
not having any connection at all to GUCs in themselves.
There is some very minor code beautification here, such as
renaming a couple of inconsistently-named hook functions
and improving some comments. But mostly this just moves
code from point A to point B and deals with the ensuing
needs for #include adjustments and exporting a few functions
that previously weren't exported.
Patch by me, per a suggestion from Andres Freund; thanks also
to Michael Paquier for the idea to invent guc_funcs.c.

The comment in basebackup.c updated by 33bd4698c11 was actually
obsolete to begin with, since the symbols it was referring to haven't
existed in that header file for quite some time. The header file is
still needed for other reasons, though, so keep the #include, just
drop the comment.

Compiling with -Wshadow=compatible-local yields quite a few warnings about
local variables being shadowed by compatible local variables in an inner
scope. Of course, this is perfectly valid in C, but we have had bugs in
the past as a result of developers failing to notice this. af7d270dd is a
recent example.
Here we do a cleanup of warnings we receive from -Wshadow=compatible-local
for code which is new to PostgreSQL 15. We've yet to have the discussion
about if we actually ever want to run that as a standard compilation flag.
We'll need to at least get the number of warnings down to something easier
to manage before we can realistically consider if we want this or not.
This commit is the first step towards reducing the warnings.
The changes being made here are all fairly trivial. Because of that, and
the fact that v15 is still in beta, this is being back-patched into 15.
It seems more risky not to do this as the risk of future bugs is increased
by the additional conflicts that this commit could cause for any future
bug fixes touching the same areas as this commit.
