Previously the help message described that -m is an option for
"stop", "restart" and "promote" commands in pg_ctl. But actually
that's not an option for "promote". So this commit fixes that
incorrect description in the help message.
Back-patch to 9.3 where the incorrect description was added.
This option is equivalent to --slot option which pg_receivexlog has
already supported, which specifies the replication slot to use for
WAL streaming. pg_recvlogical has already supported both options,

regarding the slot option.
Back-patch to 9.4 where the slot option was added.

This refactoring is in preparation for adding support for other SSL
implementations, with no user-visible effects. There are now two #defines,
USE_OPENSSL which is defined when building with OpenSSL, and USE_SSL which
is defined when building with any SSL implementation. Currently, OpenSSL is
the only implementation so the two #defines go together, but USE_SSL is
supposed to be used for implementation-independent code.
The libpq SSL code is changed to use a custom BIO, which does all the raw
I/O, like we've been doing in the backend for a long time. That makes it
possible to use MSG_NOSIGNAL to block SIGPIPE when using SSL, which avoids
a couple of syscall for each send(). Probably doesn't make much performance
difference in practice - the SSL encryption is expensive enough to mask the
effect - but it was a natural result of this refactoring.

Alvaro Herrera, Andreas Karlsson, Jeff Janes.
This allows us to specify the maximum time to issue fsync to ensure
the received WAL file is safely flushed to disk. Without this,
pg_receivexlog always flushes WAL file only when it's closed and
which can cause WAL data to be lost at the event of a crash.

Previously the source codes for processing the received data and handling
the end of stream were included in pg_receivexlog main loop. This commit
splits out them as separate functions. This is useful for improving the
readability of main loop code and making the future pg_receivexlog-related
patch simpler.
In 9.2, pg_receivexlog with verbose option has emitted the messages
at the end of each WAL file. But the commit 0b63291 suppressed such
messages by mistake. This commit fixes the bug so that pg_receivexlog
--verbose outputs such messages again.
Back-patch to 9.3 where the bug was added.
findDependencyLoops() was not bright about cases where there are multiple
dependency paths between the same two dumpable objects. In most scenarios
this did not hurt us too badly; but since the introduction of section
boundary pseudo-objects in commit a1ef01fe16,
it was possible for this code to take unreasonable amounts of time (tens
of seconds on a database with a couple thousand objects), as reported in
bug #11033 from Joe Van Dyk. Joe's particular problem scenario involved
"pg_dump -a" mode with long chains of foreign key constraints, but I think
that similar problems could arise with other situations as long as there
were enough objects. To fix, add a flag array that lets us notice when we
arrive at the same object again while searching from a given start object.
This simple change seems to be enough to eliminate the performance problem.
Back-patch to 9.1, like the patch that introduced section boundary objects.
The problem is that pg_receivexlog calls select(2) with timeout=0 and

pg_ctl will log to the Windows event log when it is running as a service,
which is the primary way of running PostgreSQL on Windows. This option
makes it possible to specify which event source to use for this, in order
to separate different instances. The server logging itself is still controlled
by the regular logging parameters, including a separate setting for the event
source. The parameter to pg_ctl only controlls the logging from pg_ctl itself.

Both the psql banner and the connection logging already included

Previously the source codes for receiving the data and for
polling the socket were included in pg_receivexlog main loop.
This commit splits out them as separate functions. This is
useful for improving the readability of main loop code and
making the future pg_receivexlog-related patch simpler.
Creating the Unix-domain socket in the build directory can run into
name-length limitations. Therefore, create the socket file in the
default temporary directory of the operating system. Keep the temporary
data directory etc. in the build tree.
The old name wasn't very descriptive as of actual contents of the
directory, which are historical snapshots in the snapshots/
subdirectory and mappingdata for rewritten tuples in
mappings/. There's been a fair amount of discussion what would be a
good name. I'm settling for pg_logical because it's likely that
further data around logical decoding and replication will need saving
in the future.
Also add the missing entry for the directory into storage.sgml's list
of PGDATA contents.
Bumps catversion as the data directories won't be compatible.
The autocommit-off mode works by issuing an implicit BEGIN just before
any command that is not already in a transaction block and is not itself
a BEGIN or other transaction-control command, nor a command that

not allowed inside a transaction block.
Backpatch to 9.4 where ALTER SYSTEM was added.

Historically these database properties could be manipulated only by
manually updating pg_database, which is error-prone and only possible for

Prior to 9.0, pg_dump handled comments on large objects by dumping a bunch
of COMMENT commands into a single BLOB COMMENTS archive object. With
sufficiently many such comments, some of the commands would likely get
split across bufferloads when restoring, causing failures in
direct-to-database restores (though no problem would be evident in text
output). This is the same type of issue we have with table data dumped as
INSERT commands, and it can be fixed in the same way, by using a mini SQL
lexer to figure out where the command boundaries are. Fortunately, the
COMMENT commands are no more complex to lex than INSERTs, so we can just
re-use the existing lexer for INSERTs.
Per bug #10611 from Jacek Zalewski. Back-patch to all active branches.
It's critical that the backend's idea of LOBLKSIZE match the way data has
actually been divided up in pg_largeobject. While we don't provide any
direct way to adjust that value, doing so is a one-line source code change
and various people have expressed interest recently in changing it. So,
just as with TOAST_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE, it seems prudent to record the value in
pg_control and cross-check that the backend's compiled-in setting matches
the on-disk data.
Also tweak the code in inv_api.c so that fetches from pg_largeobject
explicitly verify that the length of the data field is not more than
LOBLKSIZE. Formerly we just had Asserts() for that, which is no protection
at all in production builds. In some of the call sites an overlength data
value would translate directly to a security-relevant stack clobber, so it
seems worth one extra runtime comparison to be sure.
In the back branches, we can't change the contents of pg_control; but we
can still make the extra checks in inv_api.c, which will offer some amount
of protection against running with the wrong value of LOBLKSIZE.
Previously there's been a mix between 'slotname' and 'slot_name'. It's
not nice to be unneccessarily inconsistent in a new feature. As a post
beta1 initdb now is required in the wake of eeca4cd35e, fix the
inconsistencies.
Most the changes won't affect usage of replication slots because the
majority of changes is around function parameter names. The prominent
exception to that is that the recovery.conf parameter
'primary_slotname' is now named 'primary_slot_name'.

Let's complain about e.g an invalid path or permission problem sooner rather
than later. Before this patch, we would only try to open the output file
after receiving the first decoded message from the server.
In yesterday's commit 2dc4f011fd, I tried
to force buffering of stdout/stderr in initdb to be what it is by
default when the program is run interactively on Unix (since that's how
most manual testing is done). This tripped over the fact that Windows
doesn't support _IOLBF mode. We dealt with that a long time ago in
syslogger.c by falling back to unbuffered mode on Windows. Export that
solution in port.h and use it in initdb.
Back-patch to 8.4, like the previous commit.
Don't close stdout on SIGHUP. Also, when a SIGHUP is received, close the
file immediately, rather than only after receiving some more data from
the server. Rename a variable, to avoid mentally dealing with double
negatives (not unsynced means synced).
Since this program may print to either stdout or stderr, the relative
ordering of its messages depends on the buffering behavior of those files.
Force stdout to be line-buffered and stderr to be unbuffered, ensuring
that the behavior will match standard Unix interactive behavior, even
when stdout and stderr are rerouted to a file.
Per complaint from Tomas Vondra. The particular case he pointed out is
new in HEAD, but issues of the same sort could arise in any branch with
other error messages, so back-patch to all branches.
I'm unsure whether we might not want to do this in other client programs
as well. For the moment, just fix initdb.
Historically we've printed a complaint for a bad locale setting, but then
fallen back to the environment default. Per discussion, this is not such
a great idea, because rectifying an erroneous locale choice post-initdb
(perhaps long after data has been loaded) could be enormously expensive.
Better to complain and give the user a chance to double-check things.
The behavior was particularly bad if the bad setting came from environment
variables rather than a bogus command-line switch: in that case not only
was there a fallback to C/SQL_ASCII, but the printed complaint was quite
unhelpful. It's hard to be entirely sure what variables setlocale looked
at, but we can at least give a hint where the problem might be.
Per a complaint from Tomas Vondra.
The leak is fairly small and rare, but a leak nevertheless.
Per Coverity report. Backpatch to 9.2, where pg_receivexlog was added.
pg_basebackup shares the code, but it always exits on error, so there is

Commit d298b50a3b by Heikki Linnakangas
requested that the version check message be updated at next release, suggesting
that the appropriate text would be “9.3 or later”. The logic used for the check
indicates that the correct text for 9.4 is “9.3 or 9.4”, since the logic would
cause this to fail for later releases.
This was accidentally broken in commits cfa1b4a711/5e8e794e3b.
It saves a line or so to call ftello unconditionally in _CloseArchive,

"ftell mismatch".
It's easy to forget using SYSTEMQUOTEs when constructing command strings
for system() or popen(). Even if we fix all the places missing it now, it is
bound to be forgotten again in the future. Introduce wrapper functions that
do the the extra quoting for you, and get rid of SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the
callers.
We previosly used SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the hard-coded command strings, and
this doesn't change the behavior of those. But user-supplied commands, like
archive_command, restore_command, COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM calls, as well as
pgbench's \shell, will now gain an extra pair of quotes. That is desirable,
but if you have existing scripts or config files that include an extra
pair of quotes, those might need to be adjusted.

teach "make clean" to clean up the detritus the tests leave behind.
Before 9.4, such an aggregate couldn't be declared, because its final
function would have to have polymorphic result type but no polymorphic
argument, which CREATE FUNCTION would quite properly reject. The
ordered-set-aggregate patch found a workaround: allow the final function
to be declared as accepting additional dummy arguments that have types
matching the aggregate's regular input arguments. However, we failed
to notice that this problem applies just as much to regular aggregates,
despite the fact that we had a built-in regular aggregate array_agg()
that was known to be undeclarable in SQL because its final function
had an illegal signature. So what we should have done, and what this
patch does, is to decouple the extra-dummy-arguments behavior from
ordered-set aggregates and make it generally available for all aggregate
declarations. We have to put this into 9.4 rather than waiting till
later because it slightly alters the rules for declaring ordered-set
aggregates.
The patch turned out a bit bigger than I'd hoped because it proved
necessary to record the extra-arguments option in a new pg_aggregate
column. I'd thought we could just look at the final function's pronargs
at runtime, but that didn't work well for variadic final functions.
It's probably just as well though, because it simplifies life for pg_dump
to record the option explicitly.
While at it, fix array_agg() to have a valid final-function signature,
and add an opr_sanity test to notice future deviations from polymorphic
consistency. I also marked the percentile_cont() aggregates as not
needing extra arguments, since they don't.
Previously it wasn't clear from --help that -F, -R, -z, -0 only

According to the Single Unix Spec and assorted man pages, you're supposed
to use the constants named AF_xxx when setting ai_family for a getaddrinfo
call. In a few places we were using PF_xxx instead. Use of PF_xxx
appears to be an ancient BSD convention that was not adopted by later
standardization. On BSD and most later Unixen, it doesn't matter much
because those constants have equivalent values anyway; but nonetheless
this code is not per spec.
In the same vein, replace PF_INET by AF_INET in one socket() call, which
wasn't even consistent with the other socket() call in the same function
let alone the remainder of our code.

In psql \d+, display oids only when they exist, and display replication

Add vacuumdb option --analyze-in-stages which runs ANALYZE three times
with different configuration settings, adopting the logic from the
analyze_new_cluster.sh script that pg_upgrade generates. That way,
users of pg_dump/pg_restore can also use that functionality.
Change pg_upgrade to create the script so that it calls vacuumdb instead
of implementing the logic itself.
Until now, when executing an aggregate function as a window function
within a window with moving frame start (that is, any frame start mode
except UNBOUNDED PRECEDING), we had to recalculate the aggregate from
scratch each time the frame head moved. This patch allows an aggregate
definition to include an alternate "moving aggregate" implementation
that includes an inverse transition function for removing rows from
the aggregate's running state. As long as this can be done successfully,
runtime is proportional to the total number of input rows, rather than
to the number of input rows times the average frame length.
This commit includes the core infrastructure, documentation, and regression
tests using user-defined aggregates. Follow-on commits will update some
of the built-in aggregates to use this feature.

There's no really compelling reason to refuse to do these read-only,
non-server-starting options as root, and there's at least one good
reason to allow -C: pg_ctl uses -C to find out the true data directory
location when pointed at a config-only directory. On Windows, this is
done before dropping administrator privileges, which means that pg_ctl
fails for administrators if and only if a config-only layout is used.
Since the root-privilege check is done so early in startup, it's a bit
awkward to check for these switches. Make the somewhat arbitrary
decision that we'll only skip the root check if -C is the first switch.
This is not just to make the code a bit simpler: it also guarantees that
we can't misinterpret a --boot mode switch. (While AuxiliaryProcessMain
doesn't currently recognize any such switch, it might have one in the
future.) This is no particular problem for pg_ctl, and since the whole
behavior is undocumented anyhow, it's not a documentation issue either.
(--describe-config only works as the first switch anyway, so this is
no restriction for that case either.)
Back-patch to 9.2 where pg_ctl first began to use -C.

This is needed because Windows services may get started with a different
current directory than where pg_ctl is executed. We want relative -D
paths to be interpreted relative to pg_ctl's CWD, similarly to what
happens on other platforms.
In support of this, move the backend's make_absolute_path() function
into src/port/path.c (where it probably should have been long since)
and get rid of the rather inferior version in pg_regress.

It is possible for a view or materialized view to depend on a table's
primary key, if the view query relies on functional dependency to
abbreviate a GROUP BY list. This is problematic for pg_dump since we
ordinarily want to dump view definitions in the pre-data section but
indexes in post-data. pg_dump knows how to deal with this situation for
regular views, by breaking the view's ON SELECT rule apart from the view
proper. But it had not been taught what to do about materialized views,
and in fact mistakenly dumped them as regular views in such cases, as
seen in bug #9616 from Jesse Denardo.
If we had CREATE OR REPLACE MATERIALIZED VIEW, we could fix this in a
manner analogous to what's done for regular views; but we don't yet,
and we'd not back-patch such a thing into 9.3 anyway. As a hopefully-
temporary workaround, break the circularity by postponing the matview
into post-data altogether when this case occurs.

Previously, psql would print the "COPY nnn" command status only for COPY
commands executed server-side. Now it will print that for frontend copies
too (including \copy). However, we continue to suppress the command status
for COPY TO STDOUT, since in that case the copy data has been routed to the
same place that the command status would go, and there is a risk of the
status line being mistaken for another line of COPY data. Doing that would
break existing scripts, and it doesn't seem worth the benefit --- this case
seems fairly analogous to SELECT, for which we also suppress the command
status.

Commit 08146775ac changed do_copy() to
temporarily scribble on pset.cur_cmd_source. That was a mighty ugly bit of
code in any case, but in particular it broke handleCopyIn's ability to tell
whether it was reading from the current script source file (in which case
pset.lineno should be incremented for each line of COPY data), or from
someplace else (in which case it shouldn't). The former case still worked,
the latter not so much. The visible effect was that line numbers reported
for errors in a script file would be wrong if there were an earlier \copy
that was reading anything other than inline-in-the-script-file data.
To fix, introduce another pset field that holds the file do_copy wants the
COPY code to use. This is a little bit ugly, but less so than passing the
file down explicitly through several layers that aren't COPY-specific.
Extracted from a larger patch by Kumar Rajeev Rastogi; that patch also
changes printing of COPY command tags, which is not a bug fix and shouldn't
get back-patched. This particular idea was from a suggestion by Amit
Khandekar, if I'm reading the thread correctly.
Back-patch to 9.2 where the faulty code was introduced.
In order for this to work, walsenders need the optional ability to
connect to a database, so the "replication" keyword now allows true
or false, for backward-compatibility, and the new value "database"
(which causes the "dbname" parameter to be respected).
walsender needs to loop not only when idle but also when sending
decoded data to the user and when waiting for more xlog data to decode.
This means that there are now three separate loops inside walsender.c;
although some refactoring has been done here, this is still a bit ugly.
