Parallel pg_restore has always supposed that ACL items for different
objects are independent and can be restored in parallel without
conflicts. However, there is one case where this fails: because
REVOKE on a table is defined to also revoke the privilege(s) at
column level, we can't restore per-column ACLs till after we restore
any table-level privileges on their table. Failure to honor this
restriction can lead to "tuple concurrently updated" errors during
parallel restore, or even to the per-column ACLs silently disappearing
because the table-level REVOKE is executed afterwards.
To fix, add a dependency from each column-level ACL item to its table's
ACL item, if there is one. Note that this doesn't fix the hazard
for pre-existing archive files, only for ones made with a corrected
pg_dump. Given that the bug's been there quite awhile without
field reports, I think this is acceptable.
This requires changing the API of pg_dump's dumpACL() function.
To keep its argument list from getting even longer, I removed the
"CatalogId objCatId" argument, which has been unused for ages.
Per report from Justin Pryzby. Back-patch to all supported branches.

"relkind" normally refers to the char field from pg_class. However, in
the parse nodes AlterTableStmt and CreateTableAsStmt, "relkind" was used
for a field of type enum ObjectType, that could refer to other object
types than those possible for a relkind. Such fields being usually
named "objtype", switch the name in both structures to make things more
consistent. Note that this led to some confusion in functions that
also operate on a RangeTableEntry object, which also has a field named
"relkind".
This naming goes back to commit 09d4e96, where only OBJECT_TABLE and
OBJECT_INDEX were used. This got extended later to use as well
OBJECT_TYPE with e440e12, not really a relation kind.

SQL standard doesn't define numeric Inf or NaN values. It appears even more
ridiculous to support then in jsonpath assuming JSON doesn't support these
values as well. This commit forbids returning NaN from .double(), which was
previously allowed. NaN can't be result of inner-jsonpath computation over
non-NaNs. So, we can not expect NaN in the jsonpath output.

This reverts commit 2b2a070, that moved the reset of path
"testtablespace" used by the regression tests as a path for tablespaces
(via --outputdir) from pg_regress to the MSVC script vcregress.pl, as
this broke the behavior added by ce5d342 to be able to safely run the
regression test suite with an administrative Windows account using a

Note that before 2b2a070, the code doing the reset in pg_regress.c
included a comment telling that we had better move that out to a
different place, leading to the mistake done in 2b2a070. Fix this
comment, and document instead that we had better never remove this code,

The previous approach was to search-and-destroy all \r occurrences
no matter what. That seems more likely to hide bugs than anything
else; indeed it seems to be hiding one now. Fix things so that
we only transform \r\n to \n.
Side effects: must do this before, not after, chomp'ing if we're
going to chomp, else we'd fail to clean up a trailing \r\n. Also,
remove safe_psql's redundant repetition of what psql already did;
else it might reduce \r\r\n to \n, which is exactly the scenario
I'm hoping to expose.
Perhaps this should be back-patched, but for now I'm content to
see what happens in HEAD.

I neglected to test this scenario while preparing commit f3faf35f3,
so of course it was broken, thanks to some very obscure and undocumented
code in pg_dump. Pre-v12 databases might have toast tables attached to
partitioned tables, which we need to ignore since newer servers never
create such useless toast tables. There was a filter for this case in
binary_upgrade_set_type_oids_by_rel_oid(), which appeared to just
prevent the pg_type OID from being copied. But actually it managed to
prevent the toast table from being created at all --- or it did before
I took out that logic. But that was a fundamentally bizarre place to be
making the test in the first place. The place where the filter should
have been, one would think, is binary_upgrade_set_pg_class_oids(), so
add it there.
While at it, reorganize binary_upgrade_set_pg_class_oids() so that it
doesn't make a completely useless query when it knows it's being
invoked for an index. And correct a comment that mis-described the
scenario where we need to force creation of a TOAST table.
Per buildfarm.
Commit f7f70d5e2 left one inconsistency behind: we're still creating
pg_type entries for the composite types of sequences and toast tables,
but not arrays over those composites. But there seems precious little
reason to have named composite types for toast tables, and not much more
to have them for sequences (especially given the thought that sequences
may someday not be standalone relations at all).
So, let's close that inconsistency by removing these composite types,
rather than adding arrays for them. This buys back a little bit of
the initial pg_type bloat added by the previous patch, and could be
a significant savings in a large database with many toast tables.
Aside from a small logic rearrangement in heap_create_with_catalog,
this patch mostly needs to clean up some places that were assuming that
pg_class.reltype always has a valid value. Those are really pre-existing
bugs, given that it's documented otherwise; notably, the plpgsql changes
fix code that gives "cache lookup failed for type 0" on indexes today.
But none of these seem interesting enough to back-patch.
Also, remove the pg_dump/pg_upgrade infrastructure for propagating
a toast table's pg_type OID into the new database, since we no longer
need that.

nbtree index builds cannot write out an empty page. That would mean
that there was no way to create a pivot tuple pointing to the page one
level up, since _bt_truncate() generates one based on page's firstright
tuple.
Replace the unnecessary PageIsEmpty() check with an assertion that
checks that the page has space for at least two line pointers (the
would-be high key line pointer, plus at least one valid "data item"
tuple line pointer).
The PageIsEmpty() check was added by commit 5d9f146c over 20 years ago.
It looks like it has always been unnecessary.
When we invented arrays of composite types (commit bc8036fc6),
we excluded system catalogs, basically just on the grounds of not
wanting to bloat pg_type. However, it's definitely inconsistent that
catalogs' composite types can't be put into arrays when others can.
Another problem is that the exclusion is done by checking
IsUnderPostmaster in heap_create_with_catalog, which means that
(1) If a user tries to create a table in single-user mode, it doesn't
get an array type. That's bad in itself, plus it breaks pg_upgrade.
(2) If someone drops and recreates a system view or information_schema
view (as we occasionally recommend doing), it will now have an array
type where it did not before, making for still more inconsistency.
So this is all pretty messy. Let's just get rid of the inconsistency
and decree that system-created relations should have array types if
similar user-created ones would, i.e. it only depends on the relkind.
As of HEAD, that means that the initial contents of pg_type grow from
411 rows to 605, which is a lot of growth percentage-wise, but it's
still quite a small catalog compared to others.

This introduces a new set of extended routines for procedure and
operator name lookups, with a flag bitmask argument that can modify the
result. The following options are available:
- Force schema qualification, ignoring search_path. This is similar to
the existing option for format_{operator|procedure}_qualified().
- Force NULL as result instead of a numeric OID for an undefined

This is a refactoring similar to 1185c78, that will be used for a future

If a type scanned is undefined, type format routines have two behaviors
depending on if FORMAT_TYPE_ALLOW_INVALID is used by the caller or not:
- Issue a cache lookup error
- Return an undefined type name "???", "???[]" or "-"
The current interface is not really helpful for callers willing to
format properly a type name, but still make sure that the type is
defined as there could be types matching the strings generated when
looking for an undefined type, even if that should not be a problem in
practice. In order to counter that, add a new flag called
FORMAT_TYPE_INVALID_AS_NULL that returns a NULL result instead of "???
or "-" which does not generate an error. This flag will be used in a
follow-up patch improving the set of SQL functions showing information
for object addresses when it comes to undefined objects.

In the common case where this function isn't actually asked to perform
any type conversion, there's nothing it has to do beyond comparing the

percent speedup on simple cases, with only minimal code bloat.
