This was for demonstration only, and now it was creating compiler
warnings from zlib without an obvious fix (see also
d923125b77), let's just remove it. The
"directory" format is presumably similar enough anyway.
Although we often don't care about freeing all memory in pg_dump,
these functions already freed the same memory in other code paths, so
we might as well do it consistently.

Multi-line "Inherits:" and "Child tables:" footers were misindented when
those strings' translations involved multibyte characters, because we were
using strlen() instead of an appropriate display width measurement.
In passing, avoid doing gettext() more than once per loop in these places.
While at it, fix pg_wcswidth(), which has been entirely broken since about
8.2, but fortunately has been unused for the same length of time.
Report and patch by Sergey Burladyan (bug #6480)
Due to an apparent thinko, when printing a table in expanded mode
(\x), space would be allocated for 1 slot plus 1 byte per line,
instead of 1 slot per line plus 1 slot for the NULL terminator. When
the line count is small, reading or writing the terminator would
therefore access memory beyond what was allocated.
gzFile is already a pointer, so code like
gzFile *handle = gzopen(...)
is wrong.
This used to pass silently because gzFile used to be defined as void*,
and you can assign a void* to a void**. But somewhere between zlib
versions 1.2.3.4 and 1.2.6, the definition of gzFile was changed to
struct gzFile_s *, and with that new definition this usage causes
compiler warnings.
So remove all those extra pointer decorations.
There is a related issue in pg_backup_archiver.h, where
FILE *FH; /* General purpose file handle */
is used throughout pg_dump as sometimes a real FILE* and sometimes a
gzFile handle, which also causes warnings now. This is not yet fixed
here, because it might need more code restructuring.
Running "psql -f -" used to print
psql:<stdin>:1: ERROR: blah
but that got broken between 8.4 and 9.0 (commit
b291c0fba8), and now it printed
psql:-:1: ERROR: blah
This reverts to the old behavior and cleans up some code that was left
dead or useless by the mentioned commit.
This makes it much more convenient to build tools for Postgres that are
separately compiled and require a matching CRC implementation.
To prevent multiple copies of the CRC polynomial tables being introduced
into the postgres binaries, they are now included in the static library
libpgport that is mainly meant for replacement system functions. That
seems like a bit of a kludge, but there's no better place.
This cleans up building of the tools pg_controldata and pg_resetxlog,
which previously had to build their own copies of pg_crc.o.
In the future, external programs that need access to the CRC tables can
include the tables directly from the new header file pg_crc_tables.h.

psql backslash commands that deal with file or directory names require
quotes around those that have spaces, single quotes, or backslashes.
However, tab-completing such names does not provide said quotes, and is
thus almost useless with them.
This patch fixes the problem by having a wrapper function around
rl_filename_completion_function that dequotes on input and quotes on
output. This eases dealing with such names.

pg_dump was incautious about sanitizing object names that are emitted
within SQL comments in its output script. A name containing a newline
would at least render the script syntactically incorrect. Maliciously
crafted object names could present a SQL injection risk when the script
is reloaded.

Security: CVE-2012-0868
Use exit_horribly() and ExecuteSqlQueryForSingleRow() in various
places where it's equivalent, or nearly equivalent, to the prior
coding. Apart from being more compact, this also makes the error
messages for the wrong-number-of-tuples case more consistent.
Parallel pg_dump wants to have multiple ArchiveHandle objects, and
therefore multiple PGconns, in play at the same time. This should
be just about the end of the refactoring that we need in order to
make that workable.
Any patches apt to get broken have probably already been broken by the
error-handling cleanups I just did, so we might as well clean this up
at the same time.
We don't normally allow quals to be pushed down into a view created
with the security_barrier option, but functions without side effects
are an exception: they're OK. This allows much better performance in
common cases, such as when using an equality operator (that might
even be indexable).
There is an outstanding issue here with the CREATE FUNCTION / ALTER
FUNCTION syntax: there's no way to use ALTER FUNCTION to unset the
leakproof flag. But I'm committing this as-is so that it doesn't
have to be rebased again; we can fix up the grammar in a future
commit.

If an extension has not been selected to be dumped (perhaps because of
a --schema or --table switch), the contents of its configuration tables
surely should not get dumped either. Per gripe from
Hubert Depesz Lubaczewski.
In pre-7.3 databases, pg_attribute.attislocal doesn't exist. The easiest
way to make sure the new inheritance logic behaves sanely is to assume it's
TRUE, not FALSE. This will result in printing child columns even when
they're not really needed. We could work harder at trying to reconstruct a
value for attislocal, but there is little evidence that anyone still cares
about dumping from such old versions, so just do the minimum necessary to
have a valid dump.
I had this correct in the original draft of the patch, but for some
unaccountable reason decided it wasn't necessary to change the value.
Testing against an old server shows otherwise...
Revise pg_dump's handling of inherited columns, which was last looked at
seriously in 2001, to eliminate several misbehaviors associated with
inherited default expressions and NOT NULL flags. In particular make sure
that a column is printed in a child table's CREATE TABLE command if and
only if it has attislocal = true; the former behavior would sometimes cause
a column to become marked attislocal when it was not so marked in the
source database. Also, stop relying on textual comparison of default
expressions to decide if they're inherited; instead, don't use
default-expression inheritance at all, but just install the default
explicitly at each level of the hierarchy. This fixes the
search-path-related misbehavior recently exhibited by Chester Young, and
also removes some dubious assumptions about the order in which ALTER TABLE
SET DEFAULT commands would be executed.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
Add new psql settings and command-line options to support setting the
field and record separators for unaligned output to a zero byte, for
easier interfacing with other shell tools.

Various filters that were meant to prevent dumping of table data were not
being applied to extension config tables, notably --exclude-table-data and
--no-unlogged-table-data. We also would bogusly try to dump data from
views, sequences, or foreign tables, should an extension try to claim they
were config tables. Fix all that, and refactor/redocument to try to make
this a bit less fragile. This reverts the implementation, though not the
feature, of commit 7b070e896c, which had
broken config-table dumping altogether :-(.
It is still the case that the code will dump config-table data even if
--schema is specified. That behavior was intentional, as per the comments
in getExtensionMembership, so I think it requires some more discussion
before we change it.
This is another round of refactoring to make things simpler for parallel
pg_dump. pg_dump.c now issues SQL queries through the relevant Archive
object, rather than relying on the global variable g_conn. This commit
isn't quite enough to get rid of g_conn entirely, but it makes a big
dent in its utilization and, along the way, manages to be slightly less
code than before.
Do not prompt when options were not specified. Assume --no-createdb,
--no-createrole, --no-superuser by default.
Also disable prompting for user name in dropdb, unless --interactive
was specified.

Instead, everything that needs the Archive object now gets it as a
parameter. This is necessary infrastructure for parallel pg_dump,
but is also amply justified by the ugliness of the current code
(though a lot more than this is needed to fix that problem).
Change various places in the code that are referencing the global
Archive object g_fout to instead reference the Archive object fout
which is already being passed as a parameter. For parallel pg_dump to
work, we're going to need multiple Archive(Handle) objects, so the
real solution here is to pass down the Archive object to everywhere
that it needs to go, but we might as well pick the low-hanging fruit
first.
Parallel dump will need to repeat these steps for each new connection,
so it's better to have this logic in its own function.
Extracted (with some changes) from a much larger patch
by Joachim Wieland.
This enables a bunch of features, notably ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK. It also
makes COPY failure (either in the server or psql) as a whole behave more
sanely in psql.
Additionally, having more commands in the same command line as COPY
works better (though since psql splits lines at semicolons, this doesn't
matter much unless you're using -c).
Also tighten a couple of switches on PQresultStatus() to add
PGRES_COPY_BOTH support and stop assuming that unknown statuses received
are errors; have those print diagnostics where warranted.

Teach pg_basebackup in streaming mode to deal with keepalive messages.
Also change the order of checks to complain at the message rather than
block size when a new message is introduced.
In passing, switch to using sizeof() instead of hardcoded sizes for
WAL protocol structs.
In commit 6545a901aa, I removed the mini SQL
lexer that was in pg_backup_db.c, thinking that it had no real purpose
beyond separating COPY data from SQL commands, which purpose had been
obsoleted by long-ago fixes in pg_dump's archive file format.
Unfortunately this was in error: that code was also used to identify
command boundaries in INSERT-style table data, which is run together as a
single string in the archive file for better compressibility. As a result,
direct-to-database restores from archive files made with --inserts or
--column-inserts fail in our latest releases, as reported by Dick Visser.
To fix, restore the mini SQL lexer, but simplify it by adjusting the
calling logic so that it's only required to cope with INSERT-style table
data, not arbitrary SQL commands. This allows us to not have to deal with
SQL comments, E'' strings, or dollar-quoted strings, none of which have
ever been emitted by dumpTableData_insert.
Also, fix the lexer to cope with standard-conforming strings, which was the
actual bug that the previous patch was meant to solve.
Back-patch to all supported branches. The previous patch went back to 8.2,
which unfortunately means that the EOL release of 8.2 contains this bug,
but I don't think we're doing another 8.2 release just because of that.
pg_dump sorts operators by name, but operators with the same name come
out in random order. Now operators with the same name are dumped in
the order prefix, postfix, infix. (This is consistent with functions,
which are dumped in increasing number of argument order.)
All supported platforms support the C89 standard function atexit()
(SunOS 4 probably being the last one not to), and supporting both
makes the code clumsy.
When a view is marked as a security barrier, it will not be pulled up
into the containing query, and no quals will be pushed down into it,
so that no function or operator chosen by the user can be applied to
rows not exposed by the view. Views not configured with this
option cannot provide robust row-level security, but will perform far
better.

This allows dumping of a table definition but not its data, on a per table basis.
Table name patterns are supported just as for --exclude-table.
Instead, add a function pg_tablespace_location(oid) used to return
the same information, and do this by reading the symbolic link.
Doing it this way makes it possible to relocate a tablespace when the
database is down by simply changing the symbolic link.
This patch creates an API whereby a btree index opclass can optionally
provide non-SQL-callable support functions for sorting. In the initial
patch, we only use this to provide a directly-callable comparator function,
which can be invoked with a bit less overhead than the traditional
SQL-callable comparator. While that should be of value in itself, the real
reason for doing this is to provide a datatype-extensible framework for
more aggressive optimizations, as in Peter Geoghegan's recent work.

If unable to connect to "postgres", try "template1". This allows things to
work more smoothly in the case where the postgres database has been
dropped. And just in case that's not good enough, also allow the user to
specify a maintenance database to be used for the initial connection, to
cover the case where neither postgres nor template1 is suitable.
This can be used to set (or unset) environment variables that will
affect programs called by psql (such as the PAGER), probably most
usefully in a .psqlrc file.

The server name for a foreign table was not quoted at need, as per report
from Ronan Dunklau. Also, queries related to FDW options were inadequately
schema-qualified in places where the search path isn't just pg_catalog, and
were inconsistently formatted everywhere, and we didn't always check that
we got the expected number of rows from them.
Same bug as reported by Thom Brown for check constraints on tables: the
constraint must be dumped separately from the domain, otherwise it is
restored before the data and thus prevents potentially-violating data
from being loaded in the first place.
Per Dean Rasheed
It's not clear that a per-datatype typanalyze function would be any more
useful than a generic typanalyze for ranges. What *is* clear is that
letting unprivileged users select typanalyze functions is a crash risk or
worse. So remove the option from CREATE TYPE AS RANGE, and instead put in
a generic typanalyze function for ranges. The generic function does
nothing as yet, but hopefully we'll improve that before 9.2 release.
This can change the meaning of queries, if the blank line happens to
occur in the middle of a quoted literal, as per complaint from Tomas Vondra.

Diagnosis and patch by Steve Singer, cosmetic adjustments by me
Instead of filling files as they appear, pre-pad the
WAL files received when streaming xlog the same way
that the server does. Data is streamed into a .partial
file which is then renamed()d into palce when it's complete,
but it will always be 16MB.
This also means that the starting position for pg_receivexlog
is now simply right after the last complete segment, and we
never need to deal with partial segments there.
