Previously pg_receivexlog created new connection for WAL streaming
even though another connection which had been established to create
or delete the replication slot was being left. This caused the unused
connection to be left uselessly until pg_receivexlog exited.
This bug was introduced by the commit d9f38c7.
This patch changes pg_receivexlog so that the connection for
the replication slot is reused for WAL streaming.

This reverts nearly all of commit 28f6cab61a
in favor of just using the typrelid we already have in pg_dump's TypeInfo
struct for the composite type. As coded, it'd crash if the composite type
had no attributes, since then the query would return no rows.
Back-patch to all supported versions. It seems to not really be a problem
in 9.0 because that version rejects the syntax "create type t as ()", but
we might as well keep the logic similar in all affected branches.

pg_dump had the wrong character for update and so was failing when

Most pg_dump.c global variables, which were passed down individually to
dumping routines, are now grouped as members of the new DumpOptions
struct, which is used as a local variable and passed down into routines
that need it. This helps future development efforts; in particular it
is said to enable a mode in which a parallel pg_dump run can output
multiple streams, and have them restored in parallel.
Also take the opportunity to clean up the pg_dump header files somewhat,
to avoid circularity.

List the actions first, as they are the most important options. Group
the other options more sensibly, consistent with the man page. Correct
a few typographical errors, clarify some things.
Also update the pg_receivexlog --help output to make it a bit more
consistent with that of pg_recvlogical.
CreateReplicationSlot() and DropReplicationSlot() were not cleaning up
the query buffer in some cases (mostly error conditions) which meant a
small leak. Not generally an issue as the error case would result in an
immediate exit, but not difficult to fix either and reduces the number
of false positives from code analyzers.
In passing, also add appropriate PQclear() calls to RunIdentifySystem().

pg_receivexlog already has the capability to use a replication slot to
reserve WAL on the upstream node. But the used slot currently has to
be created via SQL.
To allow using slots directly, without involving SQL, add
--create-slot and --drop-slot actions, analogous to the logical slot
manipulation support in pg_recvlogical.

A future patch (9.5 only) adds slot management to pg_receivexlog. The
verbs create/drop don't seem descriptive enough there. It seems better
to rename pg_recvlogical's commands now, in beta, than live with the
inconsistency forever.
The old form (e.g. --drop) will still be accepted by virtue of most

Peter G pointed out that valgrind was, rightfully, complaining about
CreatePolicy() ending up copying beyond the end of the parsed policy
name. Name is a fixed-size type and we need to use namein (through
DirectFunctionCall1()) to flush out the entire array before we pass
it down to heap_form_tuple.
Michael Paquier pointed out that pg_dump --verbose was missing a

schema was also missing from the messages, so fix those also.
Also, based on an off-list comment from Kevin, rework the psql \d

Lastly, improve the pg_policies view and update the documentation for
it, along with a few other minor doc corrections based on an off-list

Andres pointed out that there was an extra ';' in equalPolicies, which
made me realize that my prior testing with CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS was
insufficient (it didn't always catch the issue, just most of the time).
Thanks to that, a different issue was discovered, specifically in
equalRSDescs. This change corrects eqaulRSDescs to return 'true' once
all policies have been confirmed logically identical. After stepping
through both functions to ensure correct behavior, I ran this for
about 12 hours of CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS runs of the regression tests
with no failures.
In addition, correct a few typos in the documentation which were pointed
out by Thom Brown (thanks!) and improve the policy documentation further
by adding a flushed out usage example based on a unix passwd file.
Lastly, clean up a few comments in the regression tests and pg_dump.h.
Without this fix, parallel restore of a schema-only dump can deadlock,

It was confusing that to other commands, like initdb and postgres, you would
pass the data directory with "-D datadir", but pg_controldata and
pg_resetxlog would take just plain path, without the "-D". With this patch,
pg_controldata and pg_resetxlog also accept "-D datadir".

Buildfarm member tick identified an issue where the policies in the
relcache for a relation were were being replaced underneath a running
query, leading to segfaults while processing the policies to be added
to a query. Similar to how TupleDesc RuleLocks are handled, add in a
equalRSDesc() function to check if the policies have actually changed
and, if not, swap back the rsdesc field (using the original instead of
the temporairly built one; the whole structure is swapped and then
specific fields swapped back). This now passes a CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS
for me and should resolve the buildfarm error.
In addition to addressing this, add a new chapter in Data Definition
under Privileges which explains row security and provides examples of
its usage, change \d to always list policies (even if row security is
disabled- but note that it is disabled, or enabled with no policies),
rework check_role_for_policy (it really didn't need the entire policy,
but it did need to be using has_privs_of_role()), and change the field
in pg_class to relrowsecurity from relhasrowsecurity, based on
Heikki's suggestion. Also from Heikki, only issue SET ROW_SECURITY in
pg_restore when talking to a 9.5+ server, list Bypass RLS in \du, and
document --enable-row-security options for pg_dump and pg_restore.
Lastly, fix a number of minor whitespace and typo issues from Heikki,
Dimitri, add a missing #include, per Peter E, fix a few minor
variable-assigned-but-not-used and resource leak issues from Coverity
and add tab completion for role attribute bypassrls as well.
In a2dabf0 we added the ability to have single or double unicode

This corrects that oversight.
Patch by Pavel Stehule.
Building on the updatable security-barrier views work, add the
ability to define policies on tables to limit the set of rows
which are returned from a query and which are allowed to be added
to a table. Expressions defined by the policy for filtering are
added to the security barrier quals of the query, while expressions
defined to check records being added to a table are added to the
with-check options of the query.
New top-level commands are CREATE/ALTER/DROP POLICY and are
controlled by the table owner. Row Security is able to be enabled
and disabled by the owner on a per-table basis using
ALTER TABLE .. ENABLE/DISABLE ROW SECURITY.
Per discussion, ROW SECURITY is disabled on tables by default and
must be enabled for policies on the table to be used. If no
policies exist on a table with ROW SECURITY enabled, a default-deny
policy is used and no records will be visible.
By default, row security is applied at all times except for the
table owner and the superuser. A new GUC, row_security, is added
which can be set to ON, OFF, or FORCE. When set to FORCE, row
security will be applied even for the table owner and superusers.
When set to OFF, row security will be disabled when allowed and an
error will be thrown if the user does not have rights to bypass row
security.
Per discussion, pg_dump sets row_security = OFF by default to ensure
that exports and backups will have all data in the table or will
error if there are insufficient privileges to bypass row security.
A new option has been added to pg_dump, --enable-row-security, to
ask pg_dump to export with row security enabled.
A new role capability, BYPASSRLS, which can only be set by the
superuser, is added to allow other users to be able to bypass row
security using row_security = OFF.

With the unicode linestyle, this adds support to control if the
column, header, or border style should be single or double line
unicode characters. The default remains 'single'.
In passing, clean up the border documentation and address some
minor formatting/spelling issues.
Pavel Stehule, with some additional changes by me.
In psql, expanded mode was not being displayed correctly when using
the normal ascii or unicode linestyles and border set to '3'. Now,
per the documentation, border '3' is really only sensible for HTML
and LaTeX formats, however, that's no excuse for ascii/unicode to
break in that case, and provisions had been made for psql to cleanly
handle this case (and it did, in non-expanded mode).
This was broken when ascii/unicode was initially added a good five
years ago because print_aligned_vertical_line wasn't passed in the
border setting being used by print_aligned_vertical but instead was
given the whole printTableContent. There really isn't a good reason
for vertical_line to have the entire printTableContent structure, so
just pass in the printTextFormat and border setting (similar to how
this is handled in horizontal_line).
Pointed out by Pavel Stehule, fix by me.
Back-patch to all currently-supported versions.
When running vacuumdb --analyze-in-stages --all, it needs to run the
first stage across all databases before the second one, instead of
running all stages in a database before processing the next one.
Also respect the --quiet option with --analyze-in-stages.
Add --help=<topic> for the commandline, and \? <topic> as a backslash
command, to show more help than the invocations without parameters
do. "commands", "variables" and "options" currently exist as help
topics describing, respectively, backslash commands, psql variables,
and commandline switches. Without parameters the help commands show
their previous topic.
Some further wordsmithing or extending of the added help content might
be needed; but there seems little benefit delaying the overall feature
further.

psql's \s (print command history) doesn't work at all with recent libedit
versions when printing to the terminal, because libedit tries to do an
fchmod() on the target file which will fail if the target is /dev/tty.
(We'd already noted this in the context of the target being /dev/null.)
Even before that, it didn't work pleasantly, because libedit likes to
encode the command history file (to ensure successful reloading), which
renders it nigh unreadable, not to mention significantly different-looking
depending on exactly which libedit version you have. So let's forget using
write_history() for this purpose, and instead print the data ourselves,
using logic similar to that used to iterate over the history for newline
encoding/decoding purposes.
While we're at it, insert the ability to use the pager when \s is printing
to the terminal. This has been an acknowledged shortcoming of \s for many
years, so while you could argue it's not exactly a back-patchable bug fix
it still seems like a good improvement. Anyone who's seriously annoyed
at this can use "\s /dev/tty" or local equivalent to get the old behavior.
Experimentation with this showed that the history iteration logic was
actually rather broken when used with libedit. It turns out that with
libedit you have to use previous_history() not next_history() to advance
to more recent history entries. The easiest and most robust fix for this
seems to be to make a run-time test to verify which function to call.
We had not noticed this because libedit doesn't really need the newline
encoding logic: its own encoding ensures that command entries containing
newlines are reloaded correctly (unlike libreadline). So the effective
behavior with recent libedits was that only the oldest history entry got
newline-encoded or newline-decoded. However, because of yet other bugs in
history_set_pos(), some old versions of libedit allowed the existing loop
logic to reach entries besides the oldest, which means there may be libedit
~/.psql_history files out there containing encoded newlines in more than
just the oldest entry. To ensure we can reload such files, it seems
appropriate to back-patch this fix, even though that will result in some
incompatibility with older psql versions (ie, multiline history entries
written by a psql with this fix will look corrupted to a psql without it,
if its libedit is reasonably up to date).

Back-patch to 9.4, as the original change was.
Previously \watch could not display the query execution time even
when \timing was enabled because it used PSQLexec instead of
SendQuery and that function didn't support \timing. This patch
introduces PSQLexecWatch and changes \watch so as to use it, instead.
PSQLexecWatch is the function to run the query, print its results and
display how long it took (only when \timing is enabled).
This patch also changes --echo-hidden so that it doesn't print
the query that \watch executes. Since \watch cannot execute
backslash command queries, they should not be printed even
when --echo-hidden is set.

Previously, we would first create the symlinks the way they are in the

That never really made much sense, so now we create the symlink pointing

them at the end.
The old coding didn't work correctly on Windows, because Windows junction

from using the replication-related utilities against the server
with older version. This is not what we want. For that

as the result of IDENTIFY_SYSTEM eventhough it actually returns
four columns in 9.4 or later.

in some replication codes.
