pl/pgsql's notion of an "expression" is very broad, encompassing
any SQL SELECT query that returns a single column and no more than
one row. So there are cases, for example evaluation of an aggregate
function, where the query involves significant work and it'd be useful
to run it with parallel workers. This used to be possible, but
commits 3eea7a0c9 et al unintentionally disabled it.
The simplest fix is to make exec_eval_expr() pass maxtuples = 0
rather than 2 to exec_run_select(). This avoids the new rule that
we will never use parallelism when a nonzero "count" limit is passed
to ExecutorRun(). (Note that the pre-3eea7a0c9 behavior was indeed
unsafe, so reverting that rule is not in the cards.) The reason
for passing 2 before was that exec_eval_expr() will throw an error
if it gets more than one returned row, so we figured that as soon
as we have two rows we know that will happen and we might as well
stop running the query. That choice was cost-free when it was made;
but disabling parallelism is far from cost-free, so now passing 2
amounts to optimizing a failure case at the expense of useful cases.
An expression query that can return more than one row is certainly
broken. People might now need to wait a bit longer to discover such
breakage; but hopefully few will use enormously expensive cases as
their first test of new pl/pgsql logic.

The previous minimum was to maintain support for Python 3.5, but we
now require Python 3.6 anyway (commit 45363fca637), so that reason is
obsolete. A small raise to Meson 0.57 allows getting rid of a fair
amount of version conditionals and silences some future-deprecated
warnings.
With the version bump, the following deprecation warnings appeared and
are fixed:
WARNING: Project targets '>=0.57' but uses feature deprecated since '0.55.0': ExternalProgram.path. use ExternalProgram.full_path() instead
WARNING: Project targets '>=0.57' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.build_root. use meson.project_build_root() or meson.global_build_root() instead.
It turns out that meson 0.57.0 and 0.57.1 are buggy for our use, so
the minimum is actually set to 0.57.2. This is specific to this
version series; in the future we won't necessarily need to be this
precise.

The current code in resolve_column_ref (dating to commits 01f7d2990
and fe24d7816) believes that not finding a RECFIELD datum is a
can't-happen case, in consequence of which I didn't spend a whole lot
of time considering what to do if it did happen. But it turns out
that it *can* happen if the would-be field name is a fully-reserved
PL/pgSQL keyword. Change the error message to describe that
situation, and add a test case demonstrating it.
This might need further refinement if anyone can find other ways to
trigger a failure here; but without an example it's not clear what
other error to throw.

On close inspection, there does not seem to be a strong reason
why these should be fully-reserved keywords. I guess they just

Our maintenance of typedefs.list has been a little haphazard
(and apparently we can't alphabetize worth a darn). Replace
the file with the authoritative list from our buildfarm, and
run pgindent using that.
I also updated the additions/exclusions lists in pgindent where
necessary to keep pgindent from messing things up significantly.
Notably, now that regex_t and some related names are macros not real
typedefs, we have to whitelist them explicitly. The exclusions list
has also drifted noticeably, presumably due to changes of system
headers on the buildfarm animals that contribute to the list.
Unlike in prior years, I've not manually added typedef names that
are missing from the buildfarm's list because they are not used to
declare any variables or fields. So there are a few places where
the typedef declaration itself is formatted worse than before,
e.g. typedef enum IoMethod. I could preserve the names that were
manually added to the list previously, but I'd really prefer to find
a less manual way of dealing with these cases. A quick grep finds
about 75 such symbols, most of which have never gotten any special
treatment.
Per discussion among pgsql-release, doing this now seems appropriate
even though we're still a week or two away from making the v18 branch.

PLy_elog_impl and its subroutine PLy_traceback intended to avoid
leaking any PyObject reference counts, but their coverage of the
matter was sadly incomplete. In particular, out-of-memory errors
in most of the string-construction subroutines could lead to
reference count leaks, because those calls were outside the
PG_TRY blocks responsible for dropping reference counts.
Fix by (a) adjusting the scopes of the PG_TRY blocks, and
(b) moving the responsibility for releasing the reference counts
of the traceback-stack objects to PLy_elog_impl. This requires
some additional "volatile" markers, but not too many.
In passing, fix an ancient thinko: use of the "e_module_o" PyObject
was guarded by "if (e_type_s)", where surely "if (e_module_o)"
was meant. This would only have visible consequences if the
"__name__" attribute were present but the "__module__" attribute
wasn't, which apparently never happens; but someday it might.
Rearranging the PG_TRY blocks requires indenting a fair amount
of code one more tab stop, which I'll do separately for clarity.

In pl_comp.c, initially create the plpgsql function's cache context
under the assumed-short-lived caller's context, and reparent it under
CacheMemoryContext only upon success. This avoids a process-lifespan
leak of 8kB or more if the function contains syntax errors. (This
leakage has existed for a long time without many complaints, but as
we move towards a possibly multi-threaded future, getting rid of
process-lifespan leaks grows more important.)
In funccache.c, arrange to reclaim the CachedFunction struct in case
the language-specific compile callback function throws an error;
previously, that resulted in an independent process-lifespan leak.
This is arguably a new bug in v18, since the leakage now occurred
for SQL-language functions as well as plpgsql.
Also, don't fill fn_xmin/fn_tid/dcallback until after successful
completion of the compile callback. This avoids a scenario where a
partially-built function cache might appear already valid upon later
inspection, and another scenario where dcallback might fail upon being
presented with an incomplete cache entry. We would have to reach such
a faulty cache entry via a pre-existing fn_extra pointer, so I'm not
sure these scenarios correspond to any live bug. (The predecessor
code in pl_comp.c never took any care about this, and we've heard no
complaints about that.) Still, it's better to be careful.
Given the lack of field complaints, I'm not very excited about
back-patching any of this; but it seems still in-scope for v18.

This cleans up some loose ends left by commit e8ca9ed1d. I hadn't
looked closely enough at these places before, but now I have.
The use of double-quoted #includes for Perl headers in plperl_system.h
seems to be simply a mistake introduced in 6c944bf3c and faithfully
copied forward since then. (I had thought possibly it was required
by some weird Windows build setup, but there's no evidence of that in
our history.)
The occurrences in SectionMemoryManager.h and SectionMemoryManager.cpp
evidently stem from those files' origin as LLVM code. It's
understandable that LLVM would treat their own files as needing
double-quoted #includes; but they're still system headers to us.
I also applied the same check to *.c files, and found a few other
random incorrect usages in both directions.
Our ECPG headers and test files routinely use angle brackets to refer
to ECPG headers. I left those usages alone, since it seems reasonable
for an ECPG user to regard those headers as system headers.

plpython.h included plpy_util.h, simply on the grounds that "it's
easier to just include it everywhere". However, plpy_util.h must
include plpython.h, or it won't pass headerscheck. While the
resulting circularity doesn't have any immediate bad effect,
it's poor design. We have seen serious messes arise in the past
from overly-broad inclusion footprints created by such circularities,
so let's establish a project policy against it.
To fix, just replace *.c files' inclusions of plpython.h with
plpy_util.h. They'll pull in plpython.h indirectly; indeed, almost
all have already done so via inclusions of other plpy_xxx.h headers.
(Any extensions using plpython.h can do likewise without breaking
the compatibility of their code with prior Postgres versions.)

In the historical implementation of SQL functions (if they don't get
inlined), we built plans for all the contained queries at first call
within an outer query, and then re-used those plans for the duration
of the outer query, and then forgot everything. This was not ideal,
not least because the plans could not be customized to specific values
of the function's parameters. Our plancache infrastructure seems
mature enough to be used here. That will solve both the problem with
not being able to build custom plans and the problem with not being
able to share work across successive outer queries.
Aside from those performance concerns, this change fixes a
longstanding bugaboo with SQL functions: you could not write DDL that
would affect later statements in the same function. That's mostly
still true with new-style SQL functions, since the results of parse
analysis are baked into the stored query trees (and protected by
dependency records). But for old-style SQL functions, it will now
work much as it does with PL/pgSQL functions, because we delay parse
analysis and planning of each query until we're ready to run it.
Some edge cases that require replanning are now handled better too;
see for example the new rowsecurity test, where we now detect an RLS
context change that was previously missed.
One other edge-case change that might be worthy of a release note
is that we now insist that a SQL function's result be generated
by the physically-last query within it. Previously, if the last
original query was deleted by a DO INSTEAD NOTHING rule, we'd be
willing to take the result from the preceding query instead.
This behavior was undocumented except in source-code comments,
and it seems hard to believe that anyone's relying on it.
Along the way to this feature, we needed a few infrastructure changes:
* The plancache can now take either a raw parse tree or an
analyzed-but-not-rewritten Query as the starting point for a
CachedPlanSource. If given a Query, it is caller's responsibility
that nothing will happen to invalidate that form of the query.
We use this for new-style SQL functions, where what's in pg_proc is
serialized Query(s) and we trust the dependency mechanism to disallow
DDL that would break those.
* The plancache now offers a way to invoke a post-rewrite callback
to examine/modify the rewritten parse tree when it is rebuilding
the parse trees after a cache invalidation. We need this because
SQL functions sometimes adjust the parse tree to make its output
exactly match the declared result type; if the plan gets rebuilt,
that has to be re-done.
* There is a new backend module utils/cache/funccache.c that
abstracts the idea of caching data about a specific function
usage (a particular function and set of input data types).
The code in it is moved almost verbatim from PL/pgSQL, which
has done that for a long time. We use that logic now for
SQL-language functions too, and maybe other PLs will have use
for it in the future.

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.

The catchall exception condition OTHERS was represented as
sqlerrstate == 0, which was a poor choice because that comes
out the same as SQLSTATE '00000'. While we don't issue that
as an error code ourselves, there isn't anything particularly
stopping users from doing so. Use -1 instead, which can't
match any allowed SQLSTATE string.
While at it, invent a macro PLPGSQL_OTHERS to use instead of
a hard-coded magic number.
While this seems like a bug fix, I'm inclined not to back-patch.
It seems barely possible that someone has written code like this
and would be annoyed by changing the behavior in a minor release.

Commit 682ce911f modified exec_save_simple_expr to accept a Param
in the tlist of a Gather node, rather than the normal case of a Var
referencing the Gather's input. It turns out that this was a kluge
to work around the bug later fixed in 0f7ec8d9c, namely that setrefs.c
was failing to replace Params in upper plan nodes with Var references
to the same Params appearing in the child tlists. With that fixed,
there seems no reason to continue to allow a Param here. (Moreover,
even if we did expect a Param here, the semantically correct thing
to do would be to take the Param as the expression being sought.
Whatever it may represent, it is *not* a reference to the child.)
Hence, revert that part of 682ce911f.
That all happened a long time ago. However, since the net effect
here is just to tighten an Assert condition, I'm content to change
it only in master.

exec_save_simple_expr did not account for the possibility that
standard_planner would stick a Materialize node atop the plan
of even a simple Result, if CURSOR_OPT_SCROLL is set. This led
to an "unexpected plan node type" error.
This is a very old bug, but it'd only be reached by declaring a
cursor for a "SELECT simple-expression" query and explicitly
marking it scrollable, which is an odd thing to do. So the lack
of prior reports isn't too surprising.

We want to support a "noreturn" decoration on more compilers besides
just GCC-compatible ones, but for that we need to move the decoration
in front of the function declaration instead of either behind it or
wherever, which is the current style afforded by GCC-style attributes.
Also rename the macro to "pg_noreturn" to be similar to the C11
standard "noreturn".
pg_noreturn is now supported on all compilers that support C11 (using
_Noreturn), as well as GCC-compatible ones (using __attribute__, as
before), as well as MSVC (using __declspec). (When PostgreSQL
requires C11, the latter two variants can be dropped.)
Now, all supported compilers effectively support pg_noreturn, so the
extra code for !HAVE_PG_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN can be dropped.
This also fixes a possible problem if third-party code includes
stdnoreturn.h, because then the current definition of
#define pg_attribute_noreturn() __attribute__((noreturn))
would cause an error.
Note that the C standard does not support a noreturn attribute on
function pointer types. So we have to drop these here. There are
only two instances at this time, so it's not a big loss. In one case,
we can make up for it by adding the pg_noreturn to a wrapper function
and adding a pg_unreachable(), in the other case, the latter was
already done before.

Commit 1dc5ebc90 allowed PL/pgSQL to perform in-place updates
of expanded-object variables that are being updated with
assignments like "x := f(x, ...)". However this was allowed
only for a hard-wired list of functions f(), since we need to
be sure that f() will not modify the variable if it fails.
It was always envisioned that we should make that extensible,
but at the time we didn't have a good way to do so. Since
then we've invented the idea of "support functions" to allow
attaching specialized optimization knowledge to functions,
and that is a perfect mechanism for doing this.
Hence, adjust PL/pgSQL to use a support function request instead
of hard-wired logic to decide if in-place update is safe.
Preserve the previous optimizations by creating support functions
for the three functions that were previously hard-wired.

If a read/write expanded variable is declared locally to the
assignment statement that is updating it, and it is referenced
exactly once in the assignment RHS, then we can optimize the
operation as a direct update of the expanded value, whether
or not the function(s) operating on it can be trusted not to
modify the value before throwing an error. This works because
if an error does get thrown, we no longer care what value the
variable has.
In cases where that doesn't work, fall back to the previous
rule that checks for safety of the top-level function.
In any case, postpone determination of whether these optimizations
are feasible until we are executing a Param referencing the target
variable and that variable holds a R/W expanded object. While the
previous incarnation of exec_check_rw_parameter was pretty cheap,
this is a bit less so, and our plan to invoke support functions
will make it even less so. So avoiding the check for variables
where it couldn't be useful should be a win.

Mark whether the target of a potentially optimizable assignment
is "local", in the sense of being declared inside any exception
block that could trap an error thrown from the assignment.
(This implies that we needn't preserve the variable's value
in case of an error. This patch doesn't do anything with the
knowledge, but the next one will.)
Normally, this requires a post-parsing scan of the function's
parse tree, since we don't know while parsing a BEGIN ...
construct whether we will find EXCEPTION at its end. However,
if there are no BEGIN ... EXCEPTION blocks in the function at
all, then all assignments are local, even those to variables
representing function arguments. We optimize that common case
by initializing the target_is_local flags to "true", and fixing
them up with a post-scan only if we found EXCEPTION.
Note that variables' default-value expressions are never interesting
for expanded-variable optimization, since they couldn't contain a
reference to the target variable anyway. But the code is set up
to compute their target_param and target_is_local correctly anyway,
for consistency and in case someone thinks of a use for that data.
I added a bit of plpgsql_dumptree support to help verify that this
code sets the flags as expected. I also added a plpgsql_dumptree
call in plpgsql_compile_inline. It was at best an oversight that
"#option dump" didn't work in a DO block; now it does.

This short and boring patch simply moves the responsibility for
initializing PLpgSQL_expr.target_param into plpgsql parsing,
rather than doing it at first execution of the expr as before.
This doesn't save anything in terms of runtime, since the work was
trivial and done only once per expr anyway. But it makes the info
available during parsing, which will be useful for the next step.
Likewise set PLpgSQL_expr.func during parsing. According to the
comments, this was once impossible; but it's certainly possible
since we invented the plpgsql_curr_compile variable. Again, this
saves little runtime, but it seems far cleaner conceptually.
While at it, I reordered stuff in struct PLpgSQL_expr to make it
clearer which fields are filled when, and merged some duplicative
code in pl_gram.y.

namely plpgsql_free_function_memory's search for expressions to clean
up. However an upcoming patch has another need for walking plpgsql
functions' statement trees, so let's create sharable tree-walker
infrastructure in the same style as expression_tree_walker().
This patch actually makes the code shorter, although that's
mainly down to having used a more compact coding style. (I didn't
write a separate subroutine for each statement type, and I made
use of some newer notations like foreach_ptr.)

This adds a new variant of generated columns that are computed on read
(like a view, unlike the existing stored generated columns, which are
computed on write, like a materialized view).
The syntax for the column definition is
... GENERATED ALWAYS AS (...) VIRTUAL
and VIRTUAL is also optional. VIRTUAL is the default rather than
STORED to match various other SQL products. (The SQL standard makes
no specification about this, but it also doesn't know about VIRTUAL or
STORED.) (Also, virtual views are the default, rather than
materialized views.)
Virtual generated columns are stored in tuples as null values. (A
very early version of this patch had the ambition to not store them at
all. But so much stuff breaks or gets confused if you have tuples
where a column in the middle is completely missing. This is a
compromise, and it still saves space over being forced to use stored
generated columns. If we ever find a way to improve this, a bit of
pg_upgrade cleverness could allow for upgrades to a newer scheme.)
The capabilities and restrictions of virtual generated columns are
mostly the same as for stored generated columns. In some cases, this
patch keeps virtual generated columns more restricted than they might
technically need to be, to keep the two kinds consistent. Some of
that could maybe be relaxed later after separate careful
considerations.
Some functionality that is currently not supported, but could possibly
be added as incremental features, some easier than others:
- index on or using a virtual column
- hence also no unique constraints on virtual columns
- extended statistics on virtual columns
- foreign-key constraints on virtual columns
- not-null constraints on virtual columns (check constraints are supported)
- ALTER TABLE / DROP EXPRESSION
- virtual column cannot have domain type
- virtual columns are not supported in logical replication
The tests in generated_virtual.sql have been copied over from
generated_stored.sql with the keyword replaced. This way we can make
sure the behavior is mostly aligned, and the differences can be
visible. Some tests for currently not supported features are
currently commented out.

Instead of passing the parse result from yyparse() via a global
variable, pass it via a function output argument.
This complements earlier work to make the parsers reentrant.

PLy_spi_execute_plan (PLyPlan.execute) and PLy_cursor_plan
(plpy.cursor) use PLy_output_convert to convert Python values
into Datums that can be passed to the query-to-execute. But they
failed to pay much attention to its warning that it can leave "cruft
generated along the way" behind. Repeated use of these methods can
result in a substantial memory leak for the duration of the calling
plpython function.
To fix, make a temporary memory context to invoke PLy_output_convert
in. This also lets us get rid of the rather fragile code that was
here for retail pfree's of the converted Datums. Indeed, we don't
need the PLyPlanObject.values field anymore at all, though I left it
in place in the back branches in the name of ABI stability.

The plpgsql scanner is a wrapper around the core scanner, which
already uses the flex %option reentrant. This patch only pushes up a
few levels the place where the scanner handle is allocated. Before,
it was allocated in pl_scanner.c in a global variable, so to the
outside the scanner was not reentrant. Now, it is allocated in
pl_comp.c and is passed as an argument to yyparse(), similar to how it
is handled in other reentrant scanners.
Also use flex yyextra to handle context information, instead of global
variables. Again, this uses the existing yyextra support in the core
scanner. This complements the other changes to make the scanner
reentrant.
The bison option %pure-parser is used to make the generated parser
pure. This happens in the usual way, since plpgsql has its own bison
parser definition.

Per git log, the last time someone tried to do something with
pgrminclude was around 2011. Many (not all) of the "pgrminclude
ignore" annotations are of a newer date but seem to have just been
copied around during refactorings and file moves and don't seem to
reflect an actual need anymore.
There have been some parallel experiments with include-what-you-use
(IWYU) annotations, but these don't seem to correspond very strongly
to pgrminclude annotations, so there is no value in keeping the
existing ones even for that kind of thing.
So, wipe them all away. We can always add new ones in the future
based on actual needs.

The C standard says that sizeof(bool) is implementation-defined, but we
know of no current systems where it is not 1. The last known systems
seem to have been Apple macOS/PowerPC 10.5 and Microsoft Visual C++ 4,
both long defunct.
PostgreSQL has always required sizeof(bool) == 1 for the definition of
bool that it used, but previously it would define its own type if the
system-provided bool had a different size. That was liable to cause
memory layout problems when interacting with system and third-party
libraries on (by now hypothetical) computers with wider _Bool, and now
C23 has introduced a new problem by making bool a built-in datatype
(like C++), so the fallback code doesn't even compile. We could
probably work around that, but then we'd be writing new untested code
for a computer that doesn't exist.
Instead, delete the unreachable and C23-uncompilable fallback code, and
let existing static assertions fail if the system-provided bool is too
wide. If we ever get a problem report from a real system, then it will
be time to figure out what to do about it in a way that also works on
modern compilers.
Note on C++: Previously we avoided including <stdbool.h> or trying to
define a new bool type in headers that might be included by C++ code.
These days we might as well just include <stdbool.h> unconditionally:
it should be visible to C++11 but do nothing, just as in C23. We
already include <stdint.h> without C++ guards in c.h, and that falls
under the same C99-compatibility section of the C++11 standard as
<stdbool.h>, so let's remove the guards here too.

Tcl 9 changed several API functions to take Tcl_Size, which is
ptrdiff_t, instead of int, for 64-bit enablement. We have to change a
few local variables to be compatible with that. We also provide a
fallback typedef of Tcl_Size for older Tcl versions.
The affected variables are used for quantities that will not approach
values beyond the range of int, so this doesn't change any
functionality.

TestUpgradeXversion knows how to make the main regression database's
references to pg_regress.so be version-independent. But it doesn't
do that for plperl's database, so that the C function added by
commit b7e3a52a8 is causing cross-version upgrade test failures.
Path of least resistance is to just drop the function at the end
of the new test.
In <= v14, also take the opportunity to clean up the generated
test files.

meson makes the backslashes in text2macro.pl's --strip argument
into forward slashes, effectively disabling comment stripping.
That hasn't caused us issues before, but it breaks the test case
for b7e3a52a8. We don't really need the pattern to be adjustable,
so just hard-wire it into the script instead.

Many process environment variables (e.g. PATH), bypass the containment
expected of a trusted PL. Hence, trusted PLs must not offer features
that achieve setenv(). Otherwise, an attacker having USAGE privilege on
the language often can achieve arbitrary code execution, even if the
attacker lacks a database server operating system user.
To fix PL/Perl, replace trusted PL/Perl %ENV with a tied hash that just
replaces each modification attempt with a warning. Sites that reach
these warnings should evaluate the application-specific implications of
proceeding without the environment modification:
Can the application reasonably proceed without the modification?
If no, switch to plperlu or another approach.
If yes, the application should change the code to stop attempting
environment modifications. If that's too difficult, add "untie
%main::ENV" in any code executed before the warning. For example,
one might add it to the start of the affected function or even to
the plperl.on_plperl_init setting.
In passing, link to Perl's guidance about the Perl features behind the
security posture of PL/Perl.
Back-patch to v12 (all supported versions).
