Traditionally IANA has distributed their timezone data in pure source
form, replete with extensive historical comments. As of release 2017c,
they've added a compact single-file format that omits comments and
abbreviates command keywords. This form is way shorter than the pure
source, even before considering its allegedly better compressibility.
Hence, let's distribute the data in that form rather than pure source.
I'm pushing this now, rather than at the next timezone database update,
so that it's easy to confirm that this data file produces compiled zic
output that's identical to what we were getting before.

When nodeValuesscan.c was written, it was impossible to have a SubPlan in
VALUES --- any sub-SELECT there would have to be uncorrelated and thereby
would produce an InitPlan instead. We therefore took a shortcut in the
logic that throws away a ValuesScan's per-row expression evaluation data
structures. This was broken by the introduction of LATERAL however; a
sub-SELECT containing a lateral reference produces a correlated SubPlan.
The cleanest fix for this would be to give up the optimization of
discarding the expression eval state. But that still seems pretty
unappetizing for long VALUES lists. It seems to work to just prevent
the subexpressions from hooking into the ValuesScan node's subPlan
list, so let's do that and see how well it works. (If this breaks,
due to additional connections between the subexpressions and the outer
query structures, we might consider compromises like throwing away data
only for VALUES rows not containing SubPlans.)
Per bug #14924 from Christian Duta. Back-patch to 9.3 where LATERAL
was introduced.

Previously, any attempt to request a 3.x protocol version other than
3.0 would lead to a hard connection failure, which made the minor
protocol version really no different from the major protocol version
and precluded gentle protocol version breaks. Instead, when the
client requests a 3.x protocol version where x is greater than 0, send
the new NegotiateProtocolVersion message to convey that we support
only 3.0. This makes it possible to introduce new minor protocol
versions without requiring a connection retry when the server is
older.
In addition, if the startup packet includes name/value pairs where
the name starts with "_pq_.", assume that those are protocol options,
not GUCs. Include those we don't support (i.e. all of them, at
present) in the NegotiateProtocolVersion message so that the client
knows they were not understood. This makes it possible for the
client to request previously-unsupported features without bumping
the protocol version at all; the client can tell from the server's
response whether the option was understood.
It will take some time before servers that support these new
facilities become common in the wild; to speed things up and make
things easier for a future 3.1 protocol version, back-patch to all
supported releases.

Upon further review, our Bonjour code doesn't actually work with the
Avahi not-too-compatible compatibility library. While you can get it
to work on non-macOS platforms if you link to Apple's own mDNSResponder

The point of having separate ResourceOwnerEnlargeFoo and
ResourceOwnerRememberFoo functions is so that resource allocation
can happen in between. Doing it in some other order is just wrong.
OpenTemporaryFile() did open(), enlarge, remember, which would leak the
open file if the enlarge step ran out of memory. Because fd.c has its own
layer of resource-remembering, the consequences look like they'd be limited
to an intratransaction FD leak, but it's still not good.
IncrBufferRefCount() did enlarge, remember, incr-refcount, which would blow
up if the incr-refcount step ever failed. It was safe enough when written,
but since the introduction of PrivateRefCountHash, I think the assumption
that no error could happen there is pretty shaky.
The odds of real problems from either bug are probably small, but still,

json{b}_populate_recordset() used the tuple descriptor created from the
query-level AS clause without worrying about whether it matched the actual
input record type. If it didn't, that would usually result in a crash,
though disclosure of server memory contents seems possible as well, for a
skilled attacker capable of issuing crafted SQL commands. Instead, use
the query-supplied descriptor only when there is no input tuple to look at,
and otherwise get a tuple descriptor based on the input tuple's own type
marking. The core code will detect any type mismatch in the latter case.

Security: CVE-2017-15098
By default, $PGUSER has permission to unlink $PGLOG. If $PGUSER
replaces $PGLOG with a symbolic link, the server will corrupt the
link-targeted file by appending log messages. Since these scripts open
$PGLOG as root, the attack works regardless of target file ownership.
"make install" does not install these scripts anywhere. Users having
manually installed them in the past should repeat that process to
acquire this fix. Most script users have $PGLOG writable to root only,
located in $PGDATA. Just before updating one of these scripts, such
users should rename $PGLOG to $PGLOG.old. The script will then recreate
$PGLOG with proper ownership.

Commit d5b760ecb wasn't quite right, on second thought: if the
caller didn't ask for column names then it would happily emit
more Vars than if the caller did ask for column names. This
is surely not a good idea. Advance the aliasp_item whether or
not we're preparing a colnames list.
expandRTE() supposed that an RTE_SUBQUERY subquery must have exactly
as many non-junk tlist items as the RTE has column aliases for it.
This was true at the time the code was written, and is still true so
far as parse analysis is concerned --- but when the function is used
during planning, the subquery might have appeared through insertion
of a view that now has more columns than it did when the outer query
was parsed. This results in a core dump if, for instance, we have
to expand a whole-row Var that references the subquery.
To avoid crashing, we can either stop expanding the RTE when we run
out of aliases, or invent new aliases for the added columns. While
the latter might be more useful, the former is consistent with what
expandRTE() does for composite-returning functions in the RTE_FUNCTION
case, so it seems like we'd better do it that way.
Per bug #14876 from Samuel Horwitz. This has been busted since commit
ff1ea2173 allowed views to acquire more columns, so back-patch to all

On closer investigation, commits f3ea3e3e8 et al were a few bricks
shy of a load. What we need is not so much to lock down the result
type of a FieldSelect, as to lock down the existence of the column
it's trying to extract. Otherwise, we can break it by dropping that
column. The dependency on the result type is then held indirectly
through the column, and doesn't need to be recorded explicitly.
Out of paranoia, I left in the code to record a dependency on the
result type, but it's used only if we can't identify the pg_class OID
for the column. That shouldn't ever happen right now, AFAICS, but
it seems possible that in future the input node could be marked as
being of type RECORD rather than some specific composite type.
Likewise for FieldStore.

There have been numerous buildfarm failures but the diagnostic is
currently silent about the reason for failure to open the file. Let's
see if we can get to the bottom of it.
Backpatch to all live branches.
Some people like to run libpq-using applications in environments where
there's no home directory. We've broken that scenario before (cf commits
5b4067798 and bd58d9d88), and commit ba005f193 broke it again, by making
it a hard error if we fail to get the home directory name while looking
for ~/.pgpass. The previous precedent is that if we can't get the home
directory name, we should just silently act as though the file we hoped
to find there doesn't exist. Rearrange the new code to honor that.
Looking around, the service-file code added by commit 41a4e4595 had the
same disease. Apparently, that escaped notice because it only runs when
a service name has been specified, which I guess the people who use this
scenario don't do. Nonetheless, it's wrong too, so fix that case as well.
Add a comment about this policy to pqGetHomeDirectory, in the probably
vain hope of forestalling the same error in future. And upgrade the
rather miserable commenting in parseServiceInfo, too.
In passing, also back off parseServiceInfo's assumption that only ENOENT
is an ignorable error from stat() when checking a service file. We would
need to ignore at least ENOTDIR as well (cf 5b4067798), and seeing that
the far-better-tested code for ~/.pgpass treats all stat() failures alike,
I think this code ought to as well.
Per bug #14872 from Dan Watson. Back-patch the .pgpass change to v10
where ba005f193 came in. The service-file bugs are far older, so
back-patch the other changes to all supported branches.

find_expr_references() neglected to record a dependency on the result type
of a FieldSelect node, allowing a DROP TYPE to break a view or rule that
contains such an expression. I think we'd omitted this case intentionally,
reasoning that there would always be a related dependency ensuring that the
DROP would cascade to the view. But at least with nested field selection
expressions, that's not true, as shown in bug #14867 from Mansur Galiev.
Add the dependency, and for good measure a dependency on the node's exposed
collation.
Likewise add a dependency on the result type of a FieldStore. I think here
the reasoning was that it'd only appear within an assignment to a field,
and the dependency on the field's column would be enough ... but having
seen this example, I think that's wrong for nested-composites cases.
Looking at nearby code, I notice we're not recording a dependency on the
exposed collation of CoerceViaIO, which seems inconsistent with our choices
for related node types. Maybe that's OK but I'm feeling suspicious of this
code today, so let's add that; it certainly can't hurt.
This patch does not do anything to protect already-existing views, only
views created after it's installed. But seeing that the issue has been
there a very long time and nobody noticed till now, that's probably good
enough.

Like the similar logic for arrays and records, it's necessary to examine
the range's subtype to decide whether the range type can support hashing.
We can omit checking the subtype for btree-defined operations, though,
since range subtypes are required to have those operations. (Possibly
that simplification for btree cases led us to overlook that it does
not apply for hash cases.)
This is only an issue if the subtype lacks hash support, which is not
true of any built-in range type, but it's easy to demonstrate a problem
with a range type over, eg, money: you can get a "could not identify
a hash function" failure when the planner is misled into thinking that
hash join or aggregation would work.
This was born broken, so back-patch to all supported branches.
