When the regrole (0c90f6769) and regnamespace (cb9fa802b) types were
added in 9.5, pg_upgrade's check for reg* types wasn't updated. While
regrole currently is safe, regnamespace is not.
It seems unlikely that anybody uses regnamespace inside catalog tables
across a pg_upgrade, but the tests should be correct nevertheless.
While at it, reorder the types checked in the query to be
alphabetical. Otherwise it's annoying to compare existing and tested
for types.

A table with OIDs that was the first in the dump output would not get
dumped with OIDs enabled. Fix that.
The reason was that the currWithOids flag was declared to be bool but
actually also takes a -1 value for "don't know yet". But under
stdbool.h semantics, that is coerced to true, so the required SET
default_with_oids command is not output again. Change the variable
type to char to fix that.

PQnotifies() is defined to just process already-read data, not try to read
any more from the socket. (This is a debatable decision, perhaps, but I'm
hesitant to change longstanding library behavior.) The documentation has
long recommended calling PQconsumeInput() before PQnotifies() to ensure
that any already-arrived message would get absorbed and processed.
However, psql did not get that memo, which explains why it's not very
reliable about reporting notifications promptly.
Also, most (not quite all) callers called PQconsumeInput() just once before
a PQnotifies() loop. Taking this recommendation seriously implies that we
should do PQconsumeInput() before each call. This is more important now
that we have "payload" strings in notification messages than it was before;
that increases the probability of having more than one packet's worth
of notify messages. Hence, adjust code as well as documentation examples
to do it like that.
Back-patch to 9.5 to match related server fixes. In principle we could
probably go back further with these changes, but given lack of field
complaints I doubt it's worthwhile.

The original implementation of pg_verify_checksums used a blacklist to
decide which files should be skipped for scanning as they do not include
data checksums, like pg_internal.init or pg_control. However, this
missed two things:
- Some files are created within builds of EXEC_BACKEND and these were
not listed, causing failures on Windows.
- Extensions may create custom files in data folders, causing the tool
to equally fail.
This commit switches to a whitelist-like method instead by checking if
the files to scan are authorized relation files. This is close to a
reverse-engineering of what is defined in relpath.c in charge of
building the relation paths, and we could consider refactoring what this
patch does so as all routines are in a single place. This is left for
later.
This is based on a suggestion from Andres Freund. TAP tests are updated
so as multiple file patterns are tested. The bug has been spotted by
various buildfarm members as a result of b34e84f which has introduced
the TAP tests of pg_verify_checksums.

Historically we forbade datatype-specific comparison functions from
returning INT_MIN, so that it would be safe to invert the sort order
just by negating the comparison result. However, this was never
really safe for comparison functions that directly return the result
of memcmp(), strcmp(), etc, as POSIX doesn't place any such restriction
on those library functions. Buildfarm results show that at least on
recent Linux on s390x, memcmp() actually does return INT_MIN sometimes,
causing sort failures.
The agreed-on answer is to remove this restriction and fix relevant
call sites to not make such an assumption; code such as "res = -res"
should be replaced by "INVERT_COMPARE_RESULT(res)". The same is needed
in a few places that just directly negated the result of memcmp or
strcmp.
To help find places having this problem, I've also added a compile option
to nbtcompare.c that causes some of the commonly used comparators to
return INT_MIN/INT_MAX instead of their usual -1/+1. It'd likely be
a good idea to have at least one buildfarm member running with
"-DSTRESS_SORT_INT_MIN". That's far from a complete test of course,
but it should help to prevent fresh introductions of such bugs.
This is a longstanding portability hazard, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

This removes a difference between the standard IsUnderPostmaster
execution environment and that of --boot and --single. In a stand-alone
backend, "SELECT random()" always started at the same seed.
On a system capable of using posix shared memory, initdb could still
conclude "selecting dynamic shared memory implementation ... sysv".
Crashed --boot or --single postgres processes orphaned shared memory
objects having names that collided with the not-actually-random names
that initdb probed. The sysv fallback appeared after ten crashes of
--boot or --single postgres. Since --boot and --single are rare in
production use, systems used for PostgreSQL development are the
principal candidate to notice this symptom.

This reverts commit f02259fe93e75d5443a2fabe2f2f38b81924ab36, in the
v11 branch only.
The hack this required in initdb.c should probably have clued us that it
wasn't really ready, but we didn't get the hint. Subsequent developments
have made clear that it affected text-vs-binary behavior in a lot of
places, and there's no reason to think that any of those behavioral changes
are desirable. There's no time to fix this before 11beta4, so just revert
for the moment. We can keep working on this in HEAD, and maybe reconsider
a back-patch once we're satisfied things are stable.
(I take the blame for this fiasco, having encouraged Michael to back-patch
a change at the last possible moment before beta wrap.)
Our general practice in frontend code is to accept input with either
Unix-style newlines (\n) or DOS-style (\r\n). pgbench was mostly down
with that, but its rule for line continuations (backslash-newline) was
not. This had been masked on Windows buildfarm machines before commit
0ba06e0bf by use of Windows text mode to read files. We could have fixed
it by forcing text mode again, but it's better to fix the parsing code
so that Windows-style text files on Unix systems don't cause problems.

PostgreSQL uses a custom wrapper for open() and fopen() which is
concurrent-safe, allowing multiple processes to open and work on the
same file. This has a couple of advantages:
- pg_test_fsync does not handle O_DSYNC correctly otherwise, leading to
false claims that disks are unsafe.
- TAP tests can run into race conditions when a postmaster and pg_ctl
open postmaster.pid, fixing some random failures in the buildfam.
pg_upgrade is one frontend tool using workarounds to bypass file locking
issues with the log files it generates, however the interactions with
pg_ctl are proving to be tedious to get rid of, so this is left for

There's a project policy against using plain "char buf[BLCKSZ]" local
or static variables as page buffers; preferred style is to palloc or
malloc each buffer to ensure it is MAXALIGN'd. However, that policy's
been ignored in an increasing number of places. We've apparently got
away with it so far, probably because (a) relatively few people use
platforms on which misalignment causes core dumps and/or (b) the
variables chance to be sufficiently aligned anyway. But this is not
something to rely on. Moreover, even if we don't get a core dump,
we might be paying a lot of cycles for misaligned accesses.
To fix, invent new union types PGAlignedBlock and PGAlignedXLogBlock
that the compiler must allocate with sufficient alignment, and use
those in place of plain char arrays.
I used these types even for variables where there's no risk of a
misaligned access, since ensuring proper alignment should make
kernel data transfers faster. I also changed some places where
we had been palloc'ing short-lived buffers, for coding style
uniformity and to save palloc/pfree overhead.

of field reports), back-patch to all supported versions.

Previously, this code blindly followed the common coding pattern of
passing PQserverVersion(AH->connection) as the server-version parameter
of fmtQualifiedId. That works as long as we have a connection; but in
pg_restore with text output, we don't. Instead we got a zero from
PQserverVersion, which fmtQualifiedId interpreted as "server is too old to
have schemas", and so the name went unqualified. That still accidentally
managed to work in many cases, which is probably why this ancient bug went
undetected for so long. It only became obvious in the wake of the changes
to force dump/restore to execute with restricted search_path.
In HEAD/v11, let's deal with this by ripping out fmtQualifiedId's server-
version behavioral dependency, and just making it schema-qualify all the
time. We no longer support pg_dump from servers old enough to need the
ability to omit schema name, let alone restoring to them. (Also, the few
callers outside pg_dump already didn't work with pre-schema servers.)
In older branches, that's not an acceptable solution, so instead just
tweak the DISABLE/ENABLE TRIGGER logic to ensure it will schema-qualify
its output regardless of server version.

it didn't need to concern itself with the possibility that one object

then it's possible that DOTypeNameCompare returns self-inconsistent

Commits 742869946 et al turn out to be a couple bricks shy of a load.
We were dumping the stored values of GUC_LIST_QUOTE variables as they
appear in proconfig or setconfig catalog columns. However, although that
quoting rule looks a lot like SQL-identifier double quotes, there are two
critical differences: empty strings ("") are legal, and depending on which
variable you're considering, values longer than NAMEDATALEN might be valid
too. So the current technique fails altogether on empty-string list
entries (as reported by Steven Winfield in bug #15248) and it also risks
truncating file pathnames during dump/reload of GUC values that are lists
of pathnames.
To fix, split the stored value without any downcasing or truncation,
and then emit each element as a SQL string literal.
This is a tad annoying, because we now have three copies of the
comma-separated-string splitting logic in varlena.c as well as a fourth
one in dumputils.c. (Not to mention the randomly-different-from-those
splitting logic in libpq...) I looked at unifying these, but it would

Wagner's report that Solaris is still using pre-POSIX shells, seems like
we oughta make this case work. It's not like the code is any less
idiomatic this way; the prior coding technique appeared nowhere else.
(There is a remaining bash-ism here, which is that $RANDOM doesn't do
what the code hopes in non-bash shells. But the use of $$ elsewhere in
