Quite a few of our built-in system views were not exercised anywhere
in the regression tests. This is perhaps not so exciting for the ones
that are simple projections/joins of system catalogs, but for the ones
that are wrappers for set-returning C functions, the omission translates
directly to lack of test coverage for those functions.
In many cases, the reason for the omission is that the view doesn't have
much to do with any specific SQL feature, so there's no natural place to
test it. To remedy that, invent a new script sysviews.sql that's dedicated
to testing SRF-based views. Move a couple of tests that did fit this
charter into the new script, and add simple "count(*)" based tests of
other views within the charter. That's enough to ensure we at least
exercise the main code path through the SRF, although it does little to
prove that the output is sane.
More could be done here, no doubt, and I hope someone will think about
how we can test these views more thoroughly. But this is a starting
point.

Previously, if the user set a special variable such as ECHO to an
unrecognized value, psql would bleat but store the new value anyway, and
then fall back to a default setting for the behavior controlled by the
variable. This was agreed to be a not particularly good idea. With
this patch, invalid values result in an error message and no change in
state.
(But this applies only to variables that affect psql's behavior; purely
informational variables such as ENCODING can still be set to random
values.)
To do this, modify the API for psql's assign-hook functions so that they
can return an OK/not OK result, and give them the responsibility for
printing error messages when they reject a value. Adjust the APIs for
ParseVariableBool and ParseVariableNum to support the new behavior
conveniently.
In passing, document the variable VERSION, which had somehow escaped that.
And improve the quite-inadequate commenting in psql/variables.c.

In commit 6c268df, pg_init_privs was added to track the initial
privileges of catalog objects and extensions. Unfortunately, that
commit didn't include understanding of ALTER EXTENSION ADD/DROP, which
allows the objects associated with an extension to be changed after the
initial CREATE EXTENSION script has been run.
The result of this meant that ACLs for objects added through
ALTER EXTENSION ADD were not recorded into pg_init_privs and we would
end up including those ACLs in pg_dump when we shouldn't have.
This commit corrects that by making sure to have pg_init_privs updated
when ALTER EXTENSION ADD/DROP is run, recording the permissions as they
are at ALTER EXTENSION ADD time, and removing any if/when ALTER
EXTENSION DROP is called.
This issue was pointed out by Moshe Jacobson as commentary on bug #14456
(which was actually a bug about versions prior to 9.6 not handling
custom ACLs on extensions correctly, an issue now addressed with
pg_init_privs in 9.6).
Back-patch to 9.6 where pg_init_privs was introduced.

!foo means "the tsvector does not contain foo", and therefore it should
match an empty tsvector. ts_match_vq() overenthusiastically supposed
that an empty tsvector could never match any query, so it forcibly
returned FALSE, the wrong answer. Remove the premature optimization.
Our behavior on this point was inconsistent, because while seqscans and
GIST index searches both failed to match empty tsvectors, GIN index
searches would find them, since GIN scans don't rely on ts_match_vq().
That makes this certainly a bug, not a debatable definition disagreement,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

Previously, type "unknown" was labeled as a base type in pg_type, which
perhaps had some sense to it because you were allowed to create tables with
unknown-type columns. But now that we don't allow that, it makes more
sense to label it a pseudo-type. This has the additional effects of
forbidding use of "unknown" as a domain base type, cast source or target
type, PL function argument or result type, or plpgsql local variable type;
all of which seem like good holes to plug.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAH2L28uwwbL9HUM-WR=hromW1Cvamkn7O-g8fPY2m=_7muJ0oA@mail.gmail.com
Previously, we left such literals alone if the query or subquery had
no properties forcing a type decision to be made (such as an ORDER BY or
DISTINCT clause using that output column). This meant that "unknown" could
be an exposed output column type, which has never been a great idea because
it could result in strange failures later on. For example, an outer query
that tried to do any operations on an unknown-type subquery output would
generally fail with some weird error like "failed to find conversion
function from unknown to text" or "could not determine which collation to
use for string comparison". Also, if the case occurred in a CREATE VIEW's
query then the view would have an unknown-type column, causing similar
failures in queries trying to use the view.
To fix, at the tail end of parse analysis of a query, forcibly convert any
remaining "unknown" literals in its SELECT or RETURNING list to type text.
However, provide a switch to suppress that, and use it in the cases of
SELECT inside a set operation or INSERT command. In those cases we already
had type resolution rules that make use of context information from outside
the subquery proper, and we don't want to change that behavior.
Also, change creation of an unknown-type column in a relation from a
warning to a hard error. The error should be unreachable now in CREATE
VIEW or CREATE MATVIEW, but it's still possible to explicitly say "unknown"
in CREATE TABLE or CREATE (composite) TYPE. We want to forbid that because
it's nothing but a foot-gun.
This change creates a pg_upgrade failure case: a matview that contains an
unknown-type column can't be pg_upgraded, because reparsing the matview's
defining query will now decide that the column is of type text, which
doesn't match the cstring-like storage that the old materialized column
would actually have. Add a checking pass to detect that. While at it,
we can detect tables or composite types that would fail, essentially
for free. Those would fail safely anyway later on, but we might as
well fail earlier.
This patch is by me, but it owes something to previous investigations
by Rahila Syed. Also thanks to Ashutosh Bapat and Michael Paquier for

When a tuple is inherited into a partitioning root, no partition
constraints need to be enforced; when it is inserted into a leaf, the
parent's partitioning quals needed to be enforced. The previous
coding got both of those cases right. When a tuple is inserted into
an intermediate level of the partitioning hierarchy (i.e. a table
which is both a partition itself and in turn partitioned), it must
enforce the partitioning qual inherited from its parent. That case
got overlooked; repair.

When considering a sequence's Data entry in dumpSequenceData, we were
actually looking at the sequence definition's dump flag to decide if we
should dump the data or not. That's generally fine, except for when the
sequence data entry was created by processExtensionTables() because it's
a config sequence. In that case, the sequence itself won't be marked as
dumping data because it's part of an extension, leading to the need for
processExtensionTables() to create the sequence data entry.
This leads to extension config sequence data not being included in the
dump when it should be. Fix this by looking at the sequence data's dump
flag instead, just as dumpTableData() was doing for tables (which is why
config tables were correctly being handled), and add a regression test
to make sure we don't break it moving forward.
All of this is a bit round-about since we can now represent which
components of a given dump item should be dumped out through the dump
flag. A future improvement might be to change checkExtensionMembership()
to check for config sequences/tables and set the dump flag based on that
directly, possibly removing the need for processExtensionTables().

Evaluation of set returning functions (SRFs_ in the targetlist (like SELECT
generate_series(1,5)) so far was done in the expression evaluation (i.e.
ExecEvalExpr()) and projection (i.e. ExecProject/ExecTargetList) code.
This meant that most executor nodes performing projection, and most
expression evaluation functions, had to deal with the possibility that an
evaluated expression could return a set of return values.
That's bad because it leads to repeated code in a lot of places. It also,
and that's my (Andres's) motivation, made it a lot harder to implement a
more efficient way of doing expression evaluation.
To fix this, introduce a new executor node (ProjectSet) that can evaluate
targetlists containing one or more SRFs. To avoid the complexity of the old
way of handling nested expressions returning sets (e.g. having to pass up
ExprDoneCond, and dealing with arguments to functions returning sets etc.),
those SRFs can only be at the top level of the node's targetlist. The
planner makes sure (via split_pathtarget_at_srfs()) that SRF evaluation is
only necessary in ProjectSet nodes and that SRFs are only present at the
top level of the node's targetlist. If there are nested SRFs the planner
creates multiple stacked ProjectSet nodes. The ProjectSet nodes always get
input from an underlying node.
We also discussed and prototyped evaluating targetlist SRFs using ROWS
FROM(), but that turned out to be more complicated than we'd hoped.
While moving SRF evaluation to ProjectSet would allow to retain the old
"least common multiple" behavior when multiple SRFs are present in one
targetlist (i.e. continue returning rows until all SRFs are at the end of
their input at the same time), we decided to instead only return rows till
all SRFs are exhausted, returning NULL for already exhausted ones. We
deemed the previous behavior to be too confusing, unexpected and actually
not particularly useful.
As a side effect, the previously prohibited case of multiple set returning
arguments to a function, is now allowed. Not because it's particularly
desirable, but because it ends up working and there seems to be no argument
for adding code to prohibit it.
Currently the behavior for COALESCE and CASE containing SRFs has changed,
returning multiple rows from the expression, even when the SRF containing
"arm" of the expression is not evaluated. That's because the SRFs are
evaluated in a separate ProjectSet node. As that's quite confusing, we're
likely to instead prohibit SRFs in those places. But that's still being
discussed, and the code would reside in places not touched here, so that's
a task for later.
There's a lot of, now superfluous, code dealing with set return expressions
around. But as the changes to get rid of those are verbose largely boring,
it seems better for readability to keep the cleanup as a separate commit.

In an RLS query, we must ensure that security filter quals are evaluated
before ordinary query quals, in case the latter contain "leaky" functions
that could expose the contents of sensitive rows. The original
implementation of RLS planning ensured this by pushing the scan of a
secured table into a sub-query that it marked as a security-barrier view.
Unfortunately this results in very inefficient plans in many cases, because
the sub-query cannot be flattened and gets planned independently of the
rest of the query.
To fix, drop the use of sub-queries to enforce RLS qual order, and instead
mark each qual (RestrictInfo) with a security_level field establishing its
priority for evaluation. Quals must be evaluated in security_level order,
except that "leakproof" quals can be allowed to go ahead of quals of lower
security_level, if it's helpful to do so. This has to be enforced within
the ordering of any one list of quals to be evaluated at a table scan node,
and we also have to ensure that quals are not chosen for early evaluation
(i.e., use as an index qual or TID scan qual) if they're not allowed to go
ahead of other quals at the scan node.
This is sufficient to fix the problem for RLS quals, since we only support
RLS policies on simple tables and thus RLS quals will always exist at the
table scan level only. Eventually these qual ordering rules should be
enforced for join quals as well, which would permit improving planning for
explicit security-barrier views; but that's a task for another patch.
Note that FDWs would need to be aware of these rules --- and not, for
example, send an insecure qual for remote execution --- but since we do
not yet allow RLS policies on foreign tables, the case doesn't arise.
This will need to be addressed before we can allow such policies.

INSERT ... VALUES with a single VALUES row is implemented quite differently
from the general VALUES case. A user-visible implication of that is that
we accept SRFs in the single-row case, but not in the multi-row case.
That's a historical artifact no doubt, but in view of the lack of field
complaints, I'm not excited about fixing it right now.
However, check_srf_call_placement() needs to know about this, first because
it should throw an error in the unsupported case, and second because it
should set p_hasTargetSRFs in the single-row case (because we treat that
like a SELECT tlist). That's an oversight in commit a4c35ea1c.

Move the code for doing parent attnos to child attnos mapping for Vars

map_partition_varattnos() and call it from the appropriate places.
Doing it in get_qual_from_partbound(), as is now, would produce wrong
result in certain multi-level partitioning cases, because it only
considers the current pair of parent-child relations. In certain
multi-level partitioning cases, attnums for the same key attribute(s)
might differ between various levels causing the same attribute to be
numbered differently in different instances of the Var corresponding
to a given attribute.
With this commit, in generate_partition_qual(), we first generate the
