Historically, the "dump" component of the namespace has been used
to decide if the objects inside of the namespace should be dumped
also. Given that "dump" is now a bitmask and may be partial, and
we may want to dump out all components of the namespace object but
only some of the components of objects contained in the namespace,
create a "dump_contains" bitmask which will represent what components
of the objects inside of a namespace should be dumped out.
No behavior change here, but in preparation for a change where we
will dump out just the ACLs of objects in pg_catalog, but we might
not dump out the ACL of the pg_catalog namespace itself (for instance,
when it hasn't been changed from the value set at initdb time).
Reviews by Alexander Korotkov, Jose Luis Tallon
pg_dump has historically used a simple boolean 'dump' value to indicate
if a given object should be included in the dump or not. Instead, use
a bitmap which breaks down the components of an object into their
distinct pieces and use that bitmap to only include the components
requested.
This does not include any behavioral change, but is in preperation for
the change to dump out just ACLs for objects in pg_catalog.

This new catalog holds the privileges which the system was
initialized with at initdb time, along with any permissions set
by extensions at CREATE EXTENSION time. This allows pg_dump
(and any other similar use-cases) to detect when the privileges
set on initdb-created or extension-created objects have been
changed from what they were set to at initdb/extension-creation
time and handle those changes appropriately.
Reviews by Alexander Korotkov, Jose Luis Tallon
Some object types have names that are only unique for one table. But
for those we generally didn't put the table name into the dump TOC tag.
So it was impossible to identify these objects if the same name was used
for multiple tables. This affects policies, column defaults,
constraints, triggers, and rules.
Fix by adding the table name to the TOC tag, so that it now reads
"$schema $table $object".

\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.

INT64_MIN/MAX should be spelled PG_INT64_MIN/MAX, per well established

The new functions are pi(), random(), random_exponential(),

This brings us a bit closer to matching upstream, but since it affects
files outside src/timezone/, we might choose not to back-patch it.
Hence keep it separate from the main update patch.
Previously pg_rewind did not fsync any files. That's problematic, given
that the target directory is modified. If the database was started
afterwards, 2ce439f33 luckily already caused the data directory to be
synced to disk at postmaster startup; reducing the scope of the problem.
To fix, use initdb -S, at the end of the pg_rewind run. It doesn't seem
worthwhile to duplicate the code into pg_rewind, and initdb -S is
already used that way by pg_upgrade.

Some of the non-MSVC Windows buildfarm members seem to need this to avoid
getting "undefined symbol" errors on libpgfeutils' references to libpq.
I could understand that if libpq were a static library, but surely it is
not? Oh well, at least the extra reference is no more harmful than it is
for libpgcommon or libpgport.
This completes (at least for now) the project of getting rid of ad-hoc
linkages among the src/bin/ subdirectories. Everything they share is now
in src/fe_utils/ and is included from a static library at link time.
A side benefit is that we can restore the FLEX_NO_BACKUP check for
psqlscanslash.l. We might need to think of another way to do that check
if we ever need to build two lexers with that property in the same source
directory, but there's no foreseeable reason to need that.
Per discussion, we want to create a static library and put the stuff into
it that until now has been shared across src/bin/ directories by ad-hoc
methods like symlinking a source file. This commit creates the library and
populates it with a couple of files that contain the widely-useful portions
of pg_dump's dumputils.c file. dumputils.c survives, because it has some
stuff that didn't seem appropriate for fe_utils, but it's significantly
smaller and is no longer referenced from any other directory.
Follow-on patches will move more stuff into fe_utils.
The Mkvcbuild.pm hacking here is just a best guess; we'll see how the
buildfarm likes it.
This enables external code to create access methods. This is useful so
that extensions can add their own access methods which can be formally
tracked for dependencies, so that DROP operates correctly. Also, having
explicit support makes pg_dump work correctly.
Currently only index AMs are supported, but we expect different types to
be added in the future.

Now that we have src/common/ for code shared between frontend and backend,
we can get rid of (most of) the klugy ways that the keyword table and
keyword lookup code were formerly shared between different uses.
This is a first step towards a more general plan of getting rid of
special-purpose kluges for sharing code in src/bin/.
I chose to merge kwlookup.c back into keywords.c, as it once was, and
always has been so far as keywords.h is concerned. We could have
kept them separate, but there is noplace that uses ScanKeywordLookup
without also wanting access to the backend's keyword list, so there
seems little point.
ecpg is still a bit weird, but at least now the trickiness is documented.
I think that the MSVC build script should require no adjustments beyond
what's done here ... but we'll soon find out.
Instead of just "2" seconds, allow eg. "2.5" seconds. Per request
from Alvaro Herrera. No docs change since the docs didn't say you
couldn't do this already.

The point of this change is to use %pure-parser in pgbench's exprparse.y.
The immediate reason is that it turns out very ancient versions of bison
have a bug with the combination of a reentrant lexer and non-reentrant
parser. We could consider dropping support for such ancient bisons; but
considering that we might well need exprparse.y to be reentrant some day,
it seems better to make it so right now than to move the portability
goalposts. (AFAICT there's no particular performance consequence to this
change, either, so there's no good reason not to do it.)
Now, %pure-parser assumes that the called lexer is built with %option
bison-bridge. Because we're assuming bitwise compatibility of yyscan_t
(yyguts_t) data structures among all the psql/pgbench lexers, that
requirement propagates back to psql's lexers as well. But it's just a
few lines of change on that side too; and if psqlscan.l is to set the
baseline for a possibly-large family of lexers, it should err on the
side of including not omitting useful features.
To allow multiline SQL commands in scripts, adopt the same rules psql uses
to decide what is the end of a SQL command, to wit, an unquoted semicolon
not encased in parentheses. Do this by importing the same flex lexer that
psql uses, since coping with stuff like dollar-quoted literals is hard to
get right without going the full nine yards.
This makes use of the infrastructure added in commit 0ea9efbe9e to
support independently-written flex lexers scanning the same PsqlScanState
input-buffer data structure. Since that infrastructure isn't very
friendly to ad-hoc parsing code such as strtok(), improve exprscan.l
so that it can parse either whitespace-separated words or expression
tokens, on demand, and rewrite pgbench.c's backslash-command parsing
code to always use the lexer to fetch tokens.
It's still the case that pgbench backslash commands extend to the end
of the line, no more and no less. That could be changed in a fairly
localized way now, and there was some interest in doing so, but it
seems like material for a separate patch.
In passing, make some marginal cleanups in syntax error reporting,
const-ify a few data structures that could use it, and run some of
this code through pgindent.
I can't tell whether the MSVC build scripts need to be taught explicitly
about the changes here or not, but the buildfarm will soon tell us.
Kyotaro Horiguchi and Tom Lane
This is a necessary preliminary step for making it play with psqlscan.l
given the way I set up the lexer input-buffer sharing mechanism in commit
0ea9efbe9e.
I've not tried to make it *actually* reentrant; there's still some static
variables laying about. But flex thinks it's reentrant, and that's what
counts.
In support of that, fix exprparse.y to pass through the yyscan_t from the
caller. Also do some minor code beautification, like not casting away
const.
Make some minor formatting adjustments to make it easier to diff these
files and see that they indeed implement the same flex rules (at least
to the extent that we want them to be the same).
(Someday it'd be nice to make ecpg's pgc.l more easily diff'able too,
but today is not that day.)
Also run relevant parts of these files and psqlscanslash.l through
pgindent.
No actual behavioral changes here, just obsessive neatnik-ism.
Previously, all scripts had the same probability of being chosen when
multiple of them were specified via -b, -f, -N, -S. With this commit,
-b and -f now search for an "@" in the script name and use the integer
found after it as the drawing probability for that script.
(One disadvantage is that if you have script whose names contain @, you
are now forced to specify "@1" at the end; otherwise the name's @ is
confused with a weight separator. We don't expect many pgbench script
with @ in their names in the wild, so this shouldn't be too serious a
problem.)
While at it, rework the interface between addScript, process_file,
process_builtin, and findBuiltin. It had gotten a bit out of hand with
recent commits.

Buildfarm results show that the ability to attach pg_attribute_printf
decoration to a function pointer appeared somewhere between gcc 2.95.3
and gcc 4.0.1. Guess that it was there in 4.0.
The existing infrastructure for FLEX_NO_BACKUP doesn't work reliably
when two lexers are built in parallel in the same directory. We can
probably fix that, but as a short-term workaround, just don't make
the check for psqlscanslash.l.
Per buildfarm.
This gets us to a point where psqlscan.l can be used by other frontend
programs for the same purpose psql uses it for, ie to detect when it's
collected a complete SQL command from input that is divided across
line boundaries. Moreover, other programs can supply their own lexers
for backslash commands of their own choosing. A follow-on patch will
use this in pgbench.
The end result here is roughly the same as in Kyotaro Horiguchi's
0001-Make-SQL-parser-part-of-psqlscan-independent-from-ps.patch, although
the details of the method for switching between lexers are quite different.
Basically, in this patch we share the entire PsqlScanState, YY_BUFFER_STATE
stack, *and* yyscan_t between different lexers. The only thing we need
to do to switch to a different lexer is to make sure the start_state is
valid for the new lexer. This works because flex doesn't keep any other
persistent state that depends on the specific lexing tables generated for
a particular .l file. (We are assuming that both lexers are built with
the same flex version, or at least versions that are compatible with
respect to the contents of yyscan_t; but that doesn't seem likely to
be a big problem in practice, considering how slowly flex changes.)
Aside from being more efficient than Horiguchi-san's original solution,
this avoids possible corner-case changes in semantics: the original code
was capable of popping the input buffer stack while still staying in
backslash-related parsing states. I'm not sure that that equates to any
useful user-visible behaviors, but I'm not sure it doesn't either, so
I'm loath to assume that we only need to consider the topmost buffer when
parsing a backslash command.
I've attempted to update the MSVC build scripts for the added .l file,
but will rely on the buildfarm to see if I missed anything.
Kyotaro Horiguchi and Tom Lane
Change psqlscan.l to specify '%option reentrant', adjust internal APIs
to match, and get rid of its internal static variables. While this is
good cleanup in an abstract sense, the reason to do it right now is that
it seems the only practical way to support use of separate flex lexers
with common PsqlScanState infrastructure. If we build two non-reentrant
lexers then we are going to have problems with dangling buffer pointers
in whichever lexer isn't active when we transition from one buffer to
another, as well as curious side-effects if we try to share any code
between the files. (Horiguchi-san had a different solution to that in his
pending patch, but I find it ugly and probably broken for corner cases.)
Depending on which version of flex you're using, this may result in getting
a "warning: unused variable 'yyg'" warning from psqlscan, similar to the
one you'd have seen for a long time in backend/parser/scan.l. I put a
local -Wno-error into CFLAGS for the file, for the convenience of those
who compile with -Werror.
Also, stop compiling psqlscan as part of mainloop.c, and make it a
standalone build target instead. This is a lot cleaner than before, though
it doesn't really change much in practice as of this commit. (I'm not sure
whether the MSVC build scripts will need some help with this part, but the
buildfarm will soon tell us.)
The distinction between "archive" and "hot_standby" existed only because
at the time "hot_standby" was added, there was some uncertainty about
stability. This is now a long time ago. We would like to move forward
with simplifying the replication configuration, but this distinction is
in the way, because a primary server cannot tell (without asking a
standby or predicting the future) which one of these would be the
appropriate level.
Pick a new name for the combined setting to make it clearer that it
covers all (non-logical) backup and replication uses. The old values
are still accepted but are converted internally.

Remove assorted external references from psqlscan.l in preparation for
making it usable by other frontend programs. This mostly involves
getting rid of direct calls to psql_error() and GetVariable() in favor
of introducing a callback-functions struct to encapsulate variable
fetching and error printing. In addition, pass the current encoding
and standard-strings status as additional parameters to psql_scan_setup
instead of looking directly at "pset" or calling additional functions.
I did not bother to change some references to psql_error that are in
functions that will soon migrate to a psql-specific backslash-command
lexer. Other than that, this version of psqlscan.l is capable of
compiling standalone. It still depends on assorted src/common functions
as well as some encoding-related libpq functions, but we expect that
all programs using it will be happy with those dependencies.

Random .h files have no business including postgres-fe.h (or postgres.h).
If that wasn't the first #include done by the calling .c file, it's the

This didn't work because when we dropped and re-established a database

the statements-are-prepared flags.
The st->prepared[] array certainly needs to be flushed, and I cleared a
couple of other fields as well that couldn't possibly retain meaningful
state for a new connection.
In passing, fix some bogus comments and strange field order choices.

Commit a2dabf0e1d had the bright idea that it could modify a "const"
global variable if it merely casted away const from a pointer. This does
not work on platforms where the compiler puts "const" variables into

our buildfarm ... an oversight I have now remedied. (The one platform
that is known to catch this is recent OS X with -fno-common.)
