The details of commit 52803098ab were
based on a misunderstanding of the role inheritance allowing use
of a database for a template. While the CREATEDB privilege is not
inherited, the database ownership is privileges are.

Offer a list of available versions for that extension. Formerly, since
there was no special support for this, it triggered off the UPDATE

This terminology provoked widespread complaints. So, instead, rename
the GUC max_parallel_degree to max_parallel_workers_per_gather
(leaving room for a possible future GUC max_parallel_workers that acts
as a system-wide limit), and rename the parallel_degree reloption to
parallel_workers. Rename structure members to match.
These changes create a dump/restore hazard for users of PostgreSQL
9.6beta1 who have set the reloption (or applied the GUC using ALTER
USER or ALTER DATABASE).
\crosstabview is a completely different way to display results from a
query: instead of a vertical display of rows, the data values are placed
in a grid where the column and row headers come from the data itself,
similar to a spreadsheet.
The sort order of the horizontal header can be specified by using
another column in the query, and the vertical header determines its
ordering from the order in which they appear in the query.
This only allows displaying a single value in each cell. If more than
one value correspond to the same cell, an error is thrown. Merging of
values can be done in the query itself, if necessary. This may be
revisited in the future.

The code that estimates what parallel degree should be uesd for the
scan of a relation is currently rather stupid, so add a parallel_degree
reloption that can be used to override the planner's rather limited
judgement.

\gexec executes the just-entered query, like \g, but instead of printing
the results it takes each field as a SQL command to send to the server.
Computing a series of queries to be executed is a fairly common thing,
but up to now you always had to resort to kluges like writing the queries
to a file and then inputting the file. Now it can be done with no
intermediate step.
The implementation is fairly straightforward except for its interaction
with FETCH_COUNT. ExecQueryUsingCursor isn't capable of being called
recursively, and even if it were, its need to create a transaction
block interferes unpleasantly with the desired behavior of \gexec after
a failure of a generated query (i.e., that it can continue). Therefore,
disable use of ExecQueryUsingCursor when doing the master \gexec query.
We can still apply it to individual generated queries, however, and there
might be some value in doing so.
While testing this feature's interaction with single-step mode, I (tgl) was
led to conclude that SendQuery needs to recognize SIGINT (cancel_pressed)
as a negative response to the single-step prompt. Perhaps that's a
back-patchable bug fix, but for now I just included it here.

Often, upon getting an unexpected error in psql, one's first wish is that
the verbosity setting had been higher; for example, to be able to see the
schema-name field or the server code location info. Up to now the only way
has been to adjust the VERBOSITY variable and repeat the failing query.
That's a pain, and it doesn't work if the error isn't reproducible.
This commit adds a psql feature that redisplays the most recent server
error at full verbosity, without needing to make any variable changes or
re-execute the failed command. We just need to hang onto the latest error
PGresult in case the user executes \errverbose, and then apply libpq's
new PQresultVerboseErrorMessage() function to it. This will consume
some trivial amount of psql memory, but otherwise the cost when the
feature isn't used should be negligible.

The existing code confuses the byte length of the string (which is
relevant when passing it to pg_strncasecmp) with the character length
of the string (which is relevant when it is used with the SQL substring
function). Separate those two concepts.

The completion of CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY was lacking in several ways
compared to a plain CREATE INDEX command:
- CREATE INDEX <name> ON completes table names, but didn't with
CONCURRENTLY.
- CREATE INDEX completes ON and existing index names, but with
CONCURRENTLY it only completed ON.
- CREATE INDEX <name> completes ON, but didn't with CONCURRENTLY.
These are now all fixed.
The previous code supported a syntax like CREATE INDEX name
CONCURRENTLY, which never existed. Mistake introduced in commit
37ec19a15c. Remove the addition of
CONCURRENTLY at that point.
This requires adding some more infrastructure to handle both case-sensitive
and case-insensitive matching, as well as the ability to match a prefix of
a previous word. So it ends up being about a wash line-count-wise, but
it's just as big a readability win here as in the SQL tab completion rules.
Michael Paquier, some adjustments by me
In the refactoring in commit d37b816dc9,
we mostly kept to the original design whereby only the last few words
on the line were matched to identify a completable pattern. However,
after commit d854118c8d, there's really
no reason to do it like that: where it's sensible, we can use patterns
that expect to match the entire input line. And mostly, it's sensible.
Matching the entire line greatly reduces the odds of a false match that
leads to offering irrelevant completions. Moreover (though I've not
tried to measure this), it should make tab completion faster since
many of the patterns will be discarded after a single integer comparison
that finds that the wrong number of words appear on the line.
There are certain identifiable places where we still need to use
TailMatches because the statement in question is allowed to appear
embedded in a larger statement. These are just a small minority of
the existing patterns, though, so the benefit of switching where
possible is large.
It's possible that this patch has removed some within-line matching
behaviors that are in fact desirable, but we can put those back when
we get complaints. Most of the removed behaviors are certainly silly.
Michael Paquier, with some further adjustments by me
Yesterday in commit d854118c8, I had a serious brain fade leading me to
underestimate the number of words that the tab-completion logic could
divide a line into. On input such as "(((((", each character will get
seen as a separate word, which means we do indeed sometimes need more
space for the words than for the original line. Fix that.
psql offered USING, WHERE, and SET in this context, but SET is not a valid
possibility here. Seems to have been a thinko in commit f5ab0a14ea
which added DELETE's USING option.
Up to now, the tab completion logic has only examined the last few words
of the current input line; "last few" being originally as few as four
words, but lately up to nine words. Furthermore, it only looked at what
libreadline considers the current line of input, which made it rather
myopic if you split your command across lines. This was tolerable,
sort of, so long as the match patterns were only designed to consider the
last few words of input; but with the recent addition of HeadMatches()
and Matches() matching rules, we really have to do better if we want
those to behave sanely.
Hence, change the code to break the entire line down into words, and to
include any previous lines in the command buffer along with the active
readline input buffer.
This will be a little bit slower than the previous coding, but some
measurements say that even a query of several thousand characters can be
parsed in a hundred or so microseconds on modern machines; so it's really
not going to be significant for interactive tab completion. To reduce
the cost some, I arranged to avoid the per-word malloc calls that used
to occur: all the words are now kept in one malloc'd buffer.
Replace tests like
else if (pg_strcasecmp(prev4_wd, "CREATE") == 0 &&
pg_strcasecmp(prev3_wd, "TRIGGER") == 0 &&
(pg_strcasecmp(prev_wd, "BEFORE") == 0 ||
pg_strcasecmp(prev_wd, "AFTER") == 0))
with new notation like this:
else if (TailMatches4("CREATE", "TRIGGER", MatchAny, "BEFORE|AFTER"))
In addition, provide some macros COMPLETE_WITH_LISTn() to reduce the amount
of clutter needed to specify a small number of predetermined completion
alternatives.
This makes the code substantially more compact: tab-complete.c gets over a
thousand lines shorter in this patch, despite the addition of a couple of
hundred lines of infrastructure for the new notations. The new way of
specifying match rules seems a whole lot more readable and less
error-prone, too.
There's a lot more that could be done now to make matching faster and more
reliable; for example I suspect that most of the TailMatches() rules should
now be Matches() rules. That would allow them to be skipped after a single
integer comparison if there aren't the right number of words on the line,
and it would reduce the risk of unintended matches. But for now, (mostly)
refrain from reworking any match rules in favor of just converting what
we've got into the new notation.

Once upon a time we did not have a separate CREATEROLE privilege, and
CREATEUSER effectively meant SUPERUSER. When we invented CREATEROLE
(in 8.1) we also added SUPERUSER so as to have a less confusing keyword
for this role property. However, we left CREATEUSER in place as a
deprecated synonym for SUPERUSER, because of backwards-compatibility
concerns. It's still there and is still confusing people, as for example
in bug #13694 from Justin Catterson. 9.6 will be ten years or so later,
which surely ought to be long enough to end the deprecation and just
remove these old keywords. Hence, do so.
Without CASCADE, if an extension has an unfullfilled dependency on
another extension, CREATE EXTENSION ERRORs out with "required extension
... is not installed". That is annoying, especially when that dependency
is an implementation detail of the extension, rather than something the
extension's user can make sense of.
In addition to CASCADE this also includes a small set of regression
tests around CREATE EXTENSION.

Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT
for messages emitted by RAISE commands. That was never more than a quick
backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the
RAISE is nested in several levels of function. What's more, it violated
our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled
on the client side not the server side.
To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq
and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either
always or only for non-error messages. Printing CONTEXT for errors only
is now their default behavior.
The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the
regression test outputs are widespread. I had to edit some of the
alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon
find anything I fat-fingered.
In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various
help displays. Add some commentary about how to verify them.

The original implementation of TABLESAMPLE modeled the tablesample method
API on index access methods, which wasn't a good choice because, without
specialized DDL commands, there's no way to build an extension that can
implement a TSM. (Raw inserts into system catalogs are not an acceptable
thing to do, because we can't undo them during DROP EXTENSION, nor will
pg_upgrade behave sanely.) Instead adopt an API more like procedural
language handlers or foreign data wrappers, wherein the only SQL-level
support object needed is a single handler function identified by having
a special return type. This lets us get rid of the supporting catalog
altogether, so that no custom DDL support is needed for the feature.
Adjust the API so that it can support non-constant tablesample arguments
(the original coding assumed we could evaluate the argument expressions at
ExecInitSampleScan time, which is undesirable even if it weren't outright
unsafe), and discourage sampling methods from looking at invisible tuples.
Make sure that the BERNOULLI and SYSTEM methods are genuinely repeatable
within and across queries, as required by the SQL standard, and deal more
honestly with methods that can't support that requirement.
Make a full code-review pass over the tablesample additions, and fix
assorted bugs, omissions, infelicities, and cosmetic issues (such as
failure to put the added code stanzas in a consistent ordering).
Improve EXPLAIN's output of tablesample plans, too.
Back-patch to 9.5 so that we don't have to support the original API
in production.
