Cope with data-offset-less archive files during out-of-order restores.
pg_dump produces custom-format archive files that lack data offsets
when it is unable to seek its output. Up to now that's been a hazard
for pg_restore. But if pg_restore is able to seek in the archive
file, there is no reason to throw up our hands when asked to restore
data blocks out of order. Instead, whenever we are searching for a
data block, record the locations of the blocks we passed over (that
is, fill in the missing data-offset fields in our in-memory copy of
the TOC data). Then, when we hit a case that requires going
backwards, we can just seek back.
Also track the furthest point that we've searched to, and seek back
to there when beginning a search for a new data block. This avoids
possible O(N^2) time consumption, by ensuring that each data block
is examined at most twice. (On Unix systems, that's at most twice
per parallel-restore job; but since Windows uses threads here, the
threads can share block location knowledge, reducing the amount of
duplicated work.)
We can also improve the code a bit by using fseeko() to skip over
data blocks during the search.
This is all of some use even in simple restores, but it's really
significant for parallel pg_restore. In that case, we require
seekability of the input already, and we will very probably need
to do out-of-order restores.
Back-patch to v12, as this fixes a regression introduced by commit
548e50976. Before that, parallel restore avoided requesting
out-of-order restores, so it would work on a data-offset-less
archive. Now it will again.
Ideally this patch would include some test coverage, but there are
other open bugs that need to be fixed before we can extend our
coverage of parallel restore very much. Plan to revisit that later.

Switch pg_test_fsync to use binary mode on Windows
pg_test_fsync has always opened files using the text mode on Windows, as
this is the default mode used if not enforced by _setmode().
This fixes a failure when running pg_test_fsync down to 12 because
O_DSYNC and the text mode are not able to work together nicely. We
fixed the handling of O_DSYNC in 12~ for the tool by switching to the
concurrent-safe version of fopen() in src/port/ with
0ba06e0. And
40cfe86, by enforcing the text mode for compatibility reasons if O_TEXT
or O_BINARY are not specified by the caller, broke pg_test_fsync. For
all versions, this avoids any translation overhead, and pg_test_fsync
should test binary writes, so it is a gain in all cases.
Note that O_DSYNC is still not handled correctly in ~11, leading to
pg_test_fsync to show insanely high numbers for open_datasync() (using
this property it is easy to notice that the binary mode is much
faster). This would require a backpatch of
0ba06e0 and
40cfe86, which
could potentially break existing applications, so this is left out.
There are no TAP tests for this tool yet, so I have checked all builds

maximum short, but this is left as future work.

Fix bitmap AND/OR scans on the inside of a nestloop partition-wise join.
reparameterize_path_by_child() failed to reparameterize BitmapAnd
and BitmapOr paths. This matters only if such a path is chosen as
the inside of a nestloop partition-wise join, where we have to pass
in parameters from the outside of the nestloop. If that did happen,
we generated a bad plan that would likely lead to crashes at execution.
This is not entirely reparameterize_path_by_child()'s fault though;
it's the victim of an ancient decision (my ancient decision, I think)
to not bother filling in param_info in BitmapAnd/Or path nodes. That
caused the function to believe that such nodes and their children
contain no parameter references and so need not be processed.
In hindsight that decision looks pretty penny-wise and pound-foolish:
while it saves a few cycles during path node setup, we do commonly
need the information later. In particular, by reversing the decision
and requiring valid param_info data in all nodes of a bitmap path
tree, we can get rid of indxpath.c's get_bitmap_tree_required_outer()
function, which computed the data on-demand. It's not unlikely that
that nets out as a savings of cycles in many scenarios. A couple
of other things in indxpath.c can be simplified as well.
While here, get rid of some cases in reparameterize_path_by_child()
that are visibly dead or useless, given that we only care about
reparameterizing paths that can be on the inside of a parameterized
nestloop. This case reminds one of the maxim that untested code
probably does not work, so I'm unwilling to leave unreachable code
in this function. (I did leave the T_Gather case in place even

ERROR: could not read block 0 in file "base/nnnnn/nnnnn": read only 0 of 8192 bytes

Similarly, we also incorrectly tried to validate CHECK constraints before

The fix for both is to delay constraint validation until phase 3, after

Avoid trying to restore table ACLs and per-column ACLs in parallel.
Parallel pg_restore has always supposed that ACL items for different
objects are independent and can be restored in parallel without
conflicts. However, there is one case where this fails: because
REVOKE on a table is defined to also revoke the privilege(s) at
column level, we can't restore per-column ACLs till after we restore
any table-level privileges on their table. Failure to honor this
restriction can lead to "tuple concurrently updated" errors during
parallel restore, or even to the per-column ACLs silently disappearing
because the table-level REVOKE is executed afterwards.
To fix, add a dependency from each column-level ACL item to its table's
ACL item, if there is one. Note that this doesn't fix the hazard
for pre-existing archive files, only for ones made with a corrected
pg_dump. Given that the bug's been there quite awhile without
field reports, I think this is acceptable.
This requires changing the API of pg_dump's dumpACL() function.
To keep its argument list from getting even longer, I removed the
"CatalogId objCatId" argument, which has been unused for ages.

Remove support for timezone "posixrules" file.
The IANA tzcode library has a feature to read a time zone file named
"posixrules" and apply the daylight-savings transition dates and times
therein, when it is given a POSIX-style time zone specification that
lacks an explicit transition rule. However, there's a problem with
that code: it doesn't work for dates past the Y2038 time_t rollover.
(Effectively, all times beyond that point are treated as standard
time.) The IANA crew regard this feature as legacy, so their plan is
to remove it not fix it. The time frame in which that will happen
is unclear, but presumably it'll happen well before 2038.
Moreover, effective with the next IANA data update (probably this
fall), the recommended default will be to not install a "posixrules"
file in the first place. The time frame in which tzdata packagers
might adopt that suggestion is likewise unclear, but at least some
platforms will probably do it in the next year or so. While we could
ignore that recommendation so far as PG-supplied tzdata trees are
concerned, builds using --with-system-tzdata will be subject to
whatever the platform's tzdata packager decides to do.
Thus, whether or not we do anything, some increasing fraction of
Postgres users will be exposed to the behavior observed when there
is no "posixrules" file; and if we do nothing, we'll have essentially
no control over the timing of that change.
The best thing to do to ameliorate the uncertainty seems to be to
proactively remove the posixrules-reading feature. If we do that in
a scheduled release then at least we can release-note the behavioral
change, rather than having users be surprised by it after a routine
tzdata update.
The change in question is fairly minor anyway: to be affected,
you have to be using a POSIX-style timezone spec, it has to not
have an explicit rule, and it has to not be one of the four traditional
continental-USA zone names (EST5EDT, CST6CDT, MST7MDT, or PST8PDT),
as those are special-cased. Since the default "posixrules" file
provides USA DST rules, the number of people who are likely to find
such a zone spec useful is probably quite small. Moreover, the
fallback behavior with no explicit rule and no "posixrules" file is to
apply current USA rules, so the only thing that really breaks is the
DST transitions in years before 2007 (and you get the countervailing
fix that transitions after 2038 will be applied).
Now, some installations might have replaced the "posixrules" file,
allowing e.g. EU rules to be applied to a POSIX-style timezone spec.
That won't work anymore. But it's not exactly clear why this solution
would be preferable to using a regular named zone. In any case, given
the Y2038 issue, we need to be pushing users to stop depending on this.
Back-patch into v13; it hasn't been released yet, so it seems OK to
change its behavior. (Personally I think we ought to back-patch

OpenSSL's native reports about problems related to protocol version
restrictions are pretty opaque and inconsistent. When we get an
SSL error that is plausibly due to this, emit a hint message that

Change libpq's default ssl_min_protocol_version to TLSv1.2.
When we initially created this parameter, in commit
ff8ca5fad, we left
the default as "allow any protocol version" on grounds of backwards
compatibility. However, that's inconsistent with the backend's default
since
b1abfec82; protocol versions prior to 1.2 are not considered very
secure; and OpenSSL has had TLSv1.2 support since 2012, so the number
of PG servers that need a lesser minimum is probably quite small.
On top of those things, it emerges that some popular distros (including
Debian and RHEL) set MinProtocol=TLSv1.2 in openssl.cnf. Thus, far
from having "allow any protocol version" behavior in practice, what
we actually have as things stand is a platform-dependent lower limit.
So, change our minds and set the min version to TLSv1.2. Anybody
wanting to connect with a new libpq to a pre-2012 server can either
set ssl_min_protocol_version=TLSv1 or accept the fallback to non-SSL.

Remove erroneous assertion from pg_copy_logical_replication_slot().
If restart_lsn of logical replication slot gets behind more than
max_slot_wal_keep_size from the current LSN, the logical replication slot
would be invalidated and its restart_lsn is reset to an invalid LSN.
If this logical replication slot with an invalid restart_lsn was specified as
the source slot in pg_copy_logical_replication_slot(), the function caused
the assertion failure unexpectedly.
This assertion was added because restart_lsn should not be invalid before.
But in v13, it can be invalid thanks to max_slot_wal_keep_size. So since this
assertion is no longer useful, this commit removes it.

Undo double-quoting of index names in non-text EXPLAIN output formats.
explain_get_index_name() applied quote_identifier() to the index name.
This is fine for text output, but the non-text output formats all have
their own quoting conventions and would much rather start from the
actual index name. For example in JSON you'd get something like
"Index Name": "\"My Index\"",
which is surely not desirable, especially when the same does not
happen for table names. Hence, move the responsibility for applying
quoting out to the callers, where it can go into already-existing
special code paths for text format.
This changes the API spec for users of explain_get_index_name_hook:
before, they were supposed to apply quote_identifier() if necessary,
now they should not. Research suggests that the only publicly
available user of the hook is hypopg, and it actually forgot to
apply quoting anyway, so it's fine. (In any case, there's no
behavioral change for the output of a hook as seen in non-text
EXPLAIN formats, so this won't break any case that programs should
be relying on.)
Digging in the commit logs, it appears that quoting was included in
explain_get_index_name's duties when commit
604ffd280 invented it;
and that was fine at the time because we only had text output format.
This should have been rethought when non-text formats were invented,
but it wasn't.

Future-proof regression tests against possibly-missing posixrules file.
The IANA time zone folk have deprecated use of a "posixrules" file in
the tz database. While for now it's our choice whether to keep
supplying one in our own builds, installations built with
--with-system-tzdata will soon be needing to cope with that file not
being present, at least on some platforms.
This causes a problem for the horology test, which expected the
nonstandard POSIX zone spec "CST7CDT" to apply pre-2007 US daylight
savings rules. That does happen if the posixrules file supplies such
information, but otherwise the test produces undesired results.
To fix, add an explicit transition date rule that matches 2005 practice.

zone, but it seems useful to have coverage of this type of zone spec.)

adding tests that are run as part of a normal regression run is a good
idea. Particularly in light of several recent and upcoming spinlock

Currently the new tests are run as part of the pre-existing

now seems ok.
The only operations that s_lock_test tests but the new tests don't are
the detection of a stuck spinlock and S_LOCK_FREE (which is otherwise
unused, not implemented on all platforms, and will be removed).
This currently contains a test for more than INT_MAX spinlocks (only
run with --disable-spinlocks), to ensure the recent commit fixing a
bug with more than INT_MAX spinlock initializations is correct. That
test is somewhat slow, so we might want to disable it after a few
