Tom Lane ea9125304d Avoid trying to restore table ACLs and per-column ACLs in parallel.
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.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
