This commit addresses the following issues in the TAP tests of
pg_upgrade, introduced in 322becb:
- Remove --port and --host for commands that already rely on a node's
environment PGHOST and PGPORT.
- Switch from run_log() to command_ok(), as all the commands executed in
the tests should succeed.
- Change EXTRA_REGRESS_OPTS to make it count as a shell fragment (fixing
s/OPT/OPTS on a way), to be compatible with the various Makefiles using
it as well as 027_stream_regress.pl in the recovery tests. The command
built for the execution the pg_regress command is reformatted, while on
it, to map with the recovery test doing the same thing (we should
refactor and consolidate that in the future, perhaps).
- Re-add the test for database names stressing the behavior of
backslashes with double quotes, mostly here for Windows.
Tests doable with the upgrade across different major versions still work
the same way.

Commit aa0105141 assigned fixed OIDs to template0 and postgres
in a very ad-hoc way. Notably, instead of teaching Catalog.pm
about these OIDs, the unused_oids script was just hacked to
not show them as unused. That's problematic since, for example,
duplicate_oids wouldn't report any future conflict. Hence,
invent a macro DECLARE_OID_DEFINING_MACRO() that can be used to
define an OID that is known to Catalog.pm and will participate
in duplicate-detection as well as renumbering by renumber_oids.pl.
(We don't anticipate renumbering these particular OIDs, but we
might as well build out all the Catalog.pm infrastructure while
we're here.)
Another issue is that aa0105141 neglected to touch IsPinnedObject,
with the result that it now claimed template0 and postgres are
pinned. The right thing to do there seems to be to teach it that
no database is pinned, since in fact DROP DATABASE doesn't check
for pinned-ness (and at least for these cases, that is an
intentional choice). It's not clear whether this wrong answer
had any visible effect, but perhaps it could have resulted in
erroneous management of dependency entries.
In passing, rename the TemplateDbOid macro to Template1DbOid
to reduce confusion (likely we should have done that way back
when we invented template0, but we didn't), and rename the
OID macros for template0 and postgres to have a similar style.
There are no changes to postgres.bki here, so no need for a
catversion bump.

psql, pg_dump, and pg_amcheck share code to process object name
patterns like 'foo*.bar*' to match all tables with names starting in
'bar' that are in schemas starting with 'foo'. Before v14, any number
of extra name parts were silently ignored, so a command line '\d
foo.bar.baz.bletch.quux' was interpreted as '\d bletch.quux'. In v14,
as a result of commit 2c8726c4b0, we
instead treated this as a request for table quux in a schema named
'foo.bar.baz.bletch'. That caused problems for people like Justin
Pryzby who were accustomed to copying strings of the form
db.schema.table from messages generated by PostgreSQL itself and using
them as arguments to \d.
Accordingly, revise things so that if an object name pattern contains
more parts than we're expecting, we throw an error, unless there's
exactly one extra part and it matches the current database name.
That way, thisdb.myschema.mytable is accepted as meaning just
myschema.mytable, but otherdb.myschema.mytable is an error, and so
is some.random.garbage.myschema.mytable.

The new option set of pg_receivewal introduced in 042a923 to control the
compression method makes it now easy to pass down various options,
including the compression level. The change to be able to do is simple,
and requires one LZ4F_preferences_t fed to LZ4F_compressBegin().
Note that LZ4F_INIT_PREFERENCES could be used to initialize the contents
of LZ4F_preferences_t as required by LZ4, but this is only available
since v1.8.3. memset()'ing its structure to 0 is enough.

Since babbbb5 and the introduction of LZ4 in pg_receivewal, the
compression of the WAL archived is controlled by two options:
- --compression-method with "gzip", "none" or "lz4" as possible value.
- --compress=N to specify a compression level. This includes a
backward-incompatible change where a value of 0 leads to a failure
instead of no compression enforced.
This commit takes advantage of a4b5754 and 3603f7c to rework the
compression options of pg_receivewal, as of:
- The removal of --compression-method.
- The extenction of --compress to use the same grammar as pg_basebackup,
with a METHOD:DETAIL format, where a METHOD is "gzip", "none" or "lz4"
and a DETAIL is a comma-separated list of options, the only keyword
supported is now "level" to control the compression level. If only an
integer is specified as value of this option, "none" is implied on 0
and "gzip" is implied otherwise. This brings back --compress to be
backward-compatible with ~14, while still supporting LZ4.
This has also the advantage of centralizing the set of checks used by
pg_receivewal to validate its compression options.

Enforce __pg_log_level message filtering centrally in logging.c,
instead of relying on the calling macros to do it. This is more
reliable (e.g. it works correctly for direct calls to pg_log_generic)
and it saves a percent or so of total code size because we get rid of
so many duplicate checks of __pg_log_level.
This does mean that argument expressions in a logging macro will be
evaluated even if we end up not printing anything. That seems of
little concern for INFO and higher levels as those messages are printed
by default, and most of our frontend programs don't even offer a way to
turn them off. I left the unlikely() checks in place for DEBUG
messages, though.

Compression option handling (level, algorithm or even workers) can be
used across several parts of the system and not only base backups.
Structures, objects and routines are renamed in consequence, to remove
the concept of base backups from this part of the code making this
change straight-forward.
pg_receivewal, that has gained support for LZ4 since babbbb5, will make
use of this infrastructure for its set of compression options, bringing
more consistency with pg_basebackup. This cleanup needs to be done
before releasing a beta of 15. pg_dump is a potential future target, as
well, and adding more compression options to it may happen in 16~.

All but a few existing callers assume without checking that this
function succeeds. While it probably will, that's a poor excuse for
not checking. Let's make it return void and instead throw an error
if it doesn't find the block reference. Callers that actually need
to handle the no-such-block case must now use the underlying function
XLogRecGetBlockTagExtended.
In addition to being a bit less error-prone, this should also serve
to suppress some Coverity complaints about XLogRecGetBlockRefInfo.
While at it, clean up some inconsistency about use of the
XLogRecHasBlockRef macro: make XLogRecGetBlockTagExtended use
that instead of open-coding the same condition, and avoid calling
XLogRecHasBlockRef twice in relevant code paths. (That is,
calling XLogRecHasBlockRef followed by XLogRecGetBlockTag is now
deprecated: use XLogRecGetBlockTagExtended instead.)

Commit 5a2832465f added
addFooterToPublicationDesc() as a wrapper around
printTableAddFooter(). The translation marker _() was moved to the
body of addFooterToPublicationDesc(), but addFooterToPublicationDesc()
was not added to GETTEXT_TRIGGERS, so those strings were lost for
translation. To fix, add the translation markers to the call sites of
addFooterToPublicationDesc() and remove the translation marker from
the body of the function. This seems easiest since there were only
two callers and it keeps the API consistent with
printTableAddFooter(). While we're here, add some const decorations
to the prototype of addFooterToPublicationDesc() for consistency with
printTableAddFooter().
These are usually not useful since users will use packaged
distributions and won't be interested in rebuilding their installation
from source. Also, we have only used these kinds of hints for some
features and in some places, not consistently throughout.

Plain \dconfig is basically equivalent to SHOW except that you can
give it a pattern with wildcards, either to match multiple GUCs or
because you don't exactly remember the name you want.
\dconfig+ adds type, context, and access-privilege information,
mainly because every other kind of object privilege has a psql command
to show it, so GUC privileges should too. (A form of this command was
in some versions of the patch series leading up to commit a0ffa885e.
We pulled it out then because of doubts that the design and code were

This option is useful to do a rewind with the server configuration file
(aka postgresql.conf) located outside the data directory, which is
something that some Linux distributions and some HA tools like to rely
on. As a result, this can simplify the logic around a rewind by
avoiding the copy of such files before running pg_rewind.
This option affects pg_rewind when it internally starts the target
cluster with some "postgres" commands, adding -c config_file=FILE to the
command strings generated, when:
- retrieving a restore_command using a "postgres -C" command for
-c/--restore-target-wal.
- forcing crash recovery once to get the cluster into a clean shutdown
state.

Further, exclusive backup mode wasn't really being tested (nor was most
of the related code- like being able to log in just to stop an exclusive
backup and the bits of the state machine related to that) and having to
possibly deal with an exclusive backup and the backup_label file

One caveat is that PGC_USERSET GUCs are unaffected by the SET privilege

There's a race condition if a file changes in the source system
after we have collected the file list. If the file becomes larger,
we only fetched up to its original size. That can easily result in
a truncated file. That's not a problem for relation files, files
in pg_xact, etc. because any actions on them will be replayed from
the WAL. However, configuration files are affected.
This commit mitigates the race condition by fetching small files in
whole, even if they have grown. A test is added in which an extra
file copied is concurrently grown with the output of pg_rewind thus
guaranteeing it to have changed in size during the operation. This
is not a full fix: we still believe the original file size for files
larger than 1 MB. That should be enough for configuration files,
and doing more than that would require big changes to the chunking
logic in libpq_source.c.
This mitigates the race condition if the file is modified between
the original scan of files and copying the file, but there's still
a race condition if a file is changed while it's being copied.
That's a much smaller window, though, and pg_basebackup has the
same issue.
This race can be seen with pg_auto_failover, which frequently uses
ALTER SYSTEM, which updates postgresql.auto.conf. Often, pg_rewind
will fail, because the postgresql.auto.conf file changed concurrently
and a partial version of it was copied to the target. The partial
file would fail to parse, preventing the server from starting up.

Before this patch, there was some code that tried to make sure that the
buffer was always big enough at the start, and then asserted that it
didn't need to be enlarged later. However, the code to make sure it was
big enough at the start doesn't actually work, and therefore it was
possible to fail an assertion and crash later.
Remove the code that tries to make sure the buffer is always big enough
at the start in favor of enlarging the buffer as we go along whenever
that is necessary.
The mistake probably happened because, on the server side, we do
actually need to guarantee that the buffer is big enough at the start
to avoid subsequent resizings. However, in that case, the calling
