Tom Lane 93f039b494 Fix pg_dump's handling of event triggers.
pg_dump with the --clean option failed to emit DROP EVENT TRIGGER
commands for event triggers.  In a closely related oversight,
it also did not emit ALTER OWNER commands for event triggers.
Since only superusers can create event triggers, the latter oversight
is of little practical consequence ... but if we're going to record
an owner for event triggers, then surely pg_dump should preserve it.

Per complaint from Greg Atkins.  Back-patch to 9.3 where event triggers
were introduced.

Tom Lane c95275fc20 Fix broken link-command-line ordering for libpgfeutils.
In the frontend Makefiles that pull in libpgfeutils, we'd generally
done it like this:

LDFLAGS += -L$(top_builddir)/src/fe_utils -lpgfeutils $(libpq_pgport)

That method is badly broken, as seen in bug #14742 from Chris Ruprecht.
The -L flag for src/fe_utils ends up being placed after whatever random
-L flags are in LDFLAGS already.  That puts us at risk of pulling in
libpgfeutils.a from some previous installation rather than the freshly
built one in src/fe_utils.  Also, the lack of an "override" is hazardous
if someone tries to specify some LDFLAGS on the make command line.

The correct way to do it is like this:

override LDFLAGS := -L$(top_builddir)/src/fe_utils -lpgfeutils $(libpq_pgport) $(LDFLAGS)

so that libpgfeutils, along with libpq, libpgport, and libpgcommon, are
guaranteed to be pulled in from the build tree and not from any referenced
system directory, because their -L flags will appear first.

In some places we'd been even lazier and done it like this:

LDFLAGS += -L$(top_builddir)/src/fe_utils -lpgfeutils -lpq

which is subtly wrong in an additional way: on platforms where we can't
restrict the symbols exported by libpq.so, it allows libpgfeutils to
latch onto libpgport and libpgcommon symbols from libpq.so, rather than
directly from those static libraries as intended.  This carries hazards
like those explained in the comments for the libpq_pgport macro.

In addition to fixing the broken libpgfeutils usages, I tried to
standardize on using $(libpq_pgport) like so:

override LDFLAGS := $(libpq_pgport) $(LDFLAGS)

even where libpgfeutils is not in the picture.  This makes no difference
right now but will hopefully discourage future mistakes of the same ilk.
And it's more like the way we handle CPPFLAGS in libpq-using Makefiles.

In passing, just for consistency, make pgbench include PTHREAD_LIBS the
same way everyplace else does, ie just after LIBS rather than in some
random place in the command line.  This might have practical effect if
there are -L switches in that macro on some platform.

It looks to me like the MSVC build scripts are not affected by this
error, but someone more familiar with them than I might want to double
check.

Back-patch to 9.6 where libpgfeutils was introduced.  In 9.6, the hazard
this error creates is that a reinstallation might link to the prior
installation's copy of libpgfeutils.a and thereby fail to absorb a
minor-version bug fix.

Heikki Linnakangas 8046465c2e Fix pg_basebackup output to stdout on Windows.
When writing a backup to stdout with pg_basebackup on Windows, put stdout
to binary mode. Any CR bytes in the output will otherwise be output
incorrectly as CR+LF.

In the passing, standardize on using "_setmode" instead of "setmode", for
the sake of consistency. They both do the same thing, but according to

Stephen Frost 4500edc7e9 Do not require 'public' to exist for pg_dump -c
Commit 330b84d8c4 didn't contemplate the case where the public schema
has been dropped and introduced a query which fails when there is no
public schema into pg_dump (when used with -c).

Adjust the query used by pg_dump to handle the case where the public
schema doesn't exist and add tests to check that such a case no longer
fails.

Back-patch the specific fix to 9.6, as the prior commit was.

Adding tests for this case involved adding support to the pg_dump
TAP tests to work with multiple databases, which, while not a large
change, is a bit much to back-patch, so that's only done in master.

Tom Lane 382ceffdf7 Phase 3 of pgindent updates.
Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.

By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis.  However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent.  That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.

This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane c7b8998ebb Phase 2 of pgindent updates.
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.

Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code.  The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there.  BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs.  So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before.  This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.

Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane e3860ffa4d Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:

* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
  sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
  well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
  with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
  than the expected column 33.

On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list.  This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.

There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses.  I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

If an operator class has no operators or functions, and doesn't need
a STORAGE clause, we emitted "CREATE OPERATOR CLASS ... AS ;" which
is syntactically invalid.  Fix by forcing a STORAGE clause to be
emitted anyway in this case.

(At some point we might consider changing the grammar to allow CREATE
OPERATOR CLASS without an opclass_item_list.  But probably we'd want to
omit the AS in that case, so that wouldn't fix this pg_dump issue anyway.)

It's been like this all along, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane f04c9a6146 Standardize terminology for pg_statistic_ext entries.
Consistently refer to such an entry as a "statistics object", not just
"statistics" or "extended statistics".  Previously we had a mismash of
terms, accompanied by utter confusion as to whether the term was
singular or plural.  That's not only grating (at least to the ear of
a native English speaker) but could be outright misleading, eg in error
messages that seemed to be referring to multiple objects where only one
could be meant.

This commit fixes the code and a lot of comments (though I may have
missed a few).  I also renamed two new SQL functions,
pg_get_statisticsextdef -> pg_get_statisticsobjdef
pg_statistic_ext_is_visible -> pg_statistics_obj_is_visible
to conform better with this terminology.

I have not touched the SGML docs other than fixing those function
names; the docs certainly need work but it seems like a separable task.

Alvaro Herrera bc085205c8 Change CREATE STATISTICS syntax
Previously, we had the WITH clause in the middle of the command, where
you'd specify both generic options as well as statistic types.  Few
people liked this, so this commit changes it to remove the WITH keyword
from that clause and makes it accept statistic types only.  (We
currently don't have any generic options, but if we invent in the
future, we will gain a new WITH clause, probably at the end of the
command).

Also, the column list is now specified without parens, which makes the
whole command look more similar to a SELECT command.  This change will
let us expand the command to supporting expressions (not just columns
names) as well as multiple tables and their join conditions.

Tom added lots of code comments and fixed some parts of the CREATE
STATISTICS reference page, too; more changes in this area are
forthcoming.  He also fixed a potential problem in the alter_generic
regression test, reducing verbosity on a cascaded drop to avoid
dependency on message ordering, as we do in other tests.

Tom also closed a security bug: we documented that table ownership was
required in order to create a statistics object on it, but didn't
actually implement it.

Implement tab-completion for statistics objects.  This can stand some
more improvement.

Stephen Frost 44c528810a Change the way pg_dump retrieves partitioning info
This gets rid of the code that issued separate queries to retrieve the
partitioning parent-child relationship, parent partition key, and child
partition bound information.  With this patch, the information is
retrieved instead using the queries issued from getTables() and
getInherits(), which is both more efficient than the previous approach
and doesn't require any new code.

Since the partitioning parent-child relationship is now retrieved with
the same old code that handles inheritance, partition attributes receive
a proper flagInhAttrs() treatment (that it didn't receive before), which
is needed so that the inherited NOT NULL constraints are not emitted if
we already emitted it for the parent.

Also, fix a bug in pg_dump's --binary-upgrade code, which caused pg_dump
to emit invalid command to attach a partition to its parent.

STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are
added too.  All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types
can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and
multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room
for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions.

This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient
on user-specified sets of columns in a single table.  This is useful to
estimate number of distinct groups in GROUP BY and DISTINCT clauses;
estimation errors there can cause over-allocation of memory in hashed
aggregates, for instance, so it's a worthwhile problem to solve.  A new
special pseudo-type pg_ndistinct is used.

(num-distinct estimation was deemed sufficiently useful by itself that
this is worthwhile even if no further statistic types are added
immediately; so much so that another version of essentially the same
functionality was submitted by Kyotaro Horiguchi:

though this commit does not use that code.)

Peter Eisentraut eccfef81e1 ICU support
Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library
provides the collation data.  The existing choices are default and libc,
and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library.

The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the
provider-specific locale handles.  Users of locale information are
changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use.

Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation
when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same.
This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt
indexes and other structures.  This is currently only supported by
ICU-provided collations.

initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale
-a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu"
appended.

Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named
collations.  The global database locales are still always libc-provided.

ICU support is enabled by configure --with-icu.

Peter Eisentraut 7c4f52409a Logical replication support for initial data copy
Add functionality for a new subscription to copy the initial data in the
tables and then sync with the ongoing apply process.

For the copying, add a new internal COPY option to have the COPY source
data provided by a callback function.  The initial data copy works on
the subscriber by receiving COPY data from the publisher and then
providing it locally into a COPY that writes to the destination table.

A WAL receiver can now execute full SQL commands.  This is used here to
obtain information about tables and publications.

Several new options were added to CREATE and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION to
control whether and when initial table syncing happens.

Change pg_dump option --no-create-subscription-slots to
--no-subscription-connect and use the new CREATE SUBSCRIPTION
... NOCONNECT option for that.
