find_composite_type_dependencies correctly found columns that are of
the specified type, and columns that are of arrays of that type, but
not columns that are domains or ranges over the given type, its array
type, etc. The most general way to handle this seems to be to assume
that any type that is directly dependent on the specified type can be
treated as a container type, and processed recursively (allowing us
to handle nested cases such as ranges over domains over arrays ...).
Since a type's array type already has such a dependency, we can drop
the existing special case for the array type.
The very similar logic in get_rels_with_domain was likewise a few
bricks shy of a load, as it supposed that a directly dependent type
could *only* be a sub-domain. This is already wrong for ranges over
domains, and it'll someday be wrong for arrays over domains.

In commit 5c77690f6, we added polling in front of most of the
get_slot_xmins calls in 001_stream_rep.pl, but today's results from
buildfarm member nightjar show that at least one more poll loop
is needed.
Proactively add a poll loop before the next-to-last get_slot_xmins call
as well. It may be that there is no race condition there because the
standby_2 server is shut down at that point, but I'm quite tired of
fighting with this test script. The empirical evidence that it's safe,
from the buildfarm, is no stronger than the evidence for the other
call that nightjar just proved unsafe.
The only remaining get_slot_xmins calls without wait_slot_xmins
protection are the first two, which should be OK since nothing has
happened at that point. It's tempting to ignore that special case
and merge get_slot_xmins and wait_slot_xmins into a single function.
I didn't go that far though.

Security: CVE-2017-7547
Some authentication methods allowed it, others did not. In the client-side,
libpq does not even try to authenticate with an empty password, which makes
using empty passwords hazardous: an administrator might think that an
account with an empty password cannot be used to log in, because psql
doesn't allow it, and not realize that a different client would in fact
allow it. To clear that confusion and to be be consistent, disallow empty
passwords in all authentication methods.
All the authentication methods that used plaintext authentication over the
wire, except for BSD authentication, already checked that the password
received from the user was not empty. To avoid forgetting it in the future
again, move the check to the recv_password_packet function. That only
forbids using an empty password with plaintext authentication, however.
MD5 and SCRAM need a different fix:
* In stable branches, check that the MD5 hash stored for the user does not
not correspond to an empty string. This adds some overhead to MD5
authentication, because the server needs to compute an extra MD5 hash, but
it is not noticeable in practice.
* In HEAD, modify CREATE and ALTER ROLE to clear the password if an empty
string, or a password hash that corresponds to an empty string, is
specified. The user-visible behavior is the same as in the stable branches,
the user cannot log in, but it seems better to stop the empty password from
entering the system in the first place. Secondly, it is fairly expensive to
check that a SCRAM hash doesn't correspond to an empty string, because
computing a SCRAM hash is much more expensive than an MD5 hash by design,
so better avoid doing that on every authentication.
We could clear the password on CREATE/ALTER ROLE also in stable branches,
but we would still need to check at authentication time, because even if we
prevent empty passwords from being stored in pg_authid, there might be
existing ones there already.

If you do ALTER COLUMN SET NOT NULL against an inheritance parent table,
it will recurse to mark all the child columns as NOT NULL as well. This
is necessary for consistency: if the column is labeled NOT NULL then
reading it should never produce nulls.
However, that didn't happen in the case where ALTER ... ADD PRIMARY KEY
marks a target column NOT NULL that wasn't before. That was questionable
from the beginning, and now Tushar Ahuja points out that it can lead to
dump/restore failures in some cases. So let's make that case recurse too.
Although this is meant to fix a bug, it's enough of a behavioral change
that I'm pretty hesitant to back-patch, especially in view of the lack
of similar field complaints. It doesn't seem to be too late to put it

DROP CASCADE doesn't currently promise to visit dependent objects in
a fixed order, so when the regression tests use it, we typically need
to suppress the details of which objects get dropped in order to have
predictable test output. Traditionally we've done that by setting
client_min_messages higher than NOTICE, but there's a better way:
we can "\set VERBOSITY terse" in psql. That suppresses the DETAIL
message with the object list, but we still get the basic notice telling
how many objects were dropped. So at least the test case can verify
that the expected number of objects were dropped.
The VERBOSITY method was already in use in a few places, but run
around and use it wherever it makes sense.

Most of our collations code has special handling for the locale names
"C" and "POSIX", allowing those collations to be used whether or not
the system libraries think those locale names are valid, or indeed
whether said libraries even have any locale support. But we missed
handling things that way in CREATE COLLATION. This meant you couldn't
clone the C/POSIX collations, nor explicitly define a new collation
using those locale names, unless the libraries allow it. That's pretty
pointless, as well as being a violation of pg_newlocale_from_collation's
API specification.
The practical effect of this change is quite limited: it allows creating
such collations even on platforms that don't HAVE_LOCALE_T, and it allows
making "POSIX" collation objects on Windows, which before this would only
let you make "C" collation objects. Hence, even though this is a bug fix
IMO, it doesn't seem worth the trouble to back-patch.
In passing, suppress the DROP CASCADE detail messages at the end of the
collation regression test. I'm surprised we've never been bit by
message ordering issues there.

When output of IPC::Run::run () is redirected to scalar references, in
certain circumstances the Msys perl does not correctly detect that the
end of file has been seen, making the test hang indefinitely. One such
circumstance is when the command is 'pg_ctl start', and such a change

MSys, is to redirect the output to temporary files and then read them in
when the process has finished.

This module becomes much more useful if we allow it to be used as base
class for external projects. To achieve this, change the exported
get_new_node function into a class method instead, and use the standard

as expected for subclasses. The standalone function is kept for
backwards compatibility, though it could be removed in pg11.

Various cases involving renaming of view columns are handled by having
make_viewdef pass down the view's current relation tupledesc to
get_query_def, which then takes care to use the column names from the
tupledesc for the output column names of the SELECT. For some reason
though, we'd missed teaching make_ruledef to do similarly when it is
printing an ON SELECT rule, even though this is exactly the same case.
The results from pg_get_ruledef would then be different and arguably wrong.
In particular, this breaks pre-v10 versions of pg_dump, which in some
situations would define views by means of emitting a CREATE RULE ... ON
SELECT command. Third-party tools might not be happy either.
In passing, clean up some crufty code in make_viewdef; we'd apparently
modernized the equivalent code in make_ruledef somewhere along the way,
and missed this copy.

I believe this changed as a consequence of commit 54baa4813: trying to
clone the "C" collation now produces a true clone with collencoding -1,
hence the error message if it's duplicate no longer specifies an encoding.
Per buildfarm member crake, which apparently hadn't been running this
test for the last few weeks.
The order of partitions listed by \d+ is in general locale-dependent.
Rename the partitions in the test added by d363d42bb9 to force them to
be listed in a consistent order.
Previously, UNBOUNDED meant no lower bound when used in the FROM list,
and no upper bound when used in the TO list, which was OK for
single-column range partitioning, but problematic with multiple
columns. For example, an upper bound of (10.0, UNBOUNDED) would not be
collocated with a lower bound of (10.0, UNBOUNDED), thus making it
difficult or impossible to define contiguous multi-column range
partitions in some cases.
Fix this by using MINVALUE and MAXVALUE instead of UNBOUNDED to
represent a partition column that is unbounded below or above
respectively. This syntax removes any ambiguity, and ensures that if
one partition's lower bound equals another partition's upper bound,
then the partitions are contiguous.
Also drop the constraint prohibiting finite values after an unbounded
column, and just document the fact that any values after MINVALUE or
MAXVALUE are ignored. Previously it was necessary to repeat UNBOUNDED
multiple times, which was needlessly verbose.

Normally, a JoinExpr would have empty "quals" only if it came from CROSS
JOIN syntax. However, it's possible to get to this state by specifying
NATURAL JOIN between two tables with no common column names, and there
might be other ways too. The code previously printed no ON clause if
"quals" was empty; that's right for CROSS JOIN but syntactically invalid
if it's some type of outer join. Fix by printing ON TRUE in that case.
This got broken by commit 2ffa740be, which stopped using NATURAL JOIN
syntax in ruleutils output due to its brittleness in the face of
column renamings. Back-patch to 9.3 where that commit appeared.

It seems pretty confusing to have tests named both largeobject and
large_object. The latter is of very recent vintage (commit ff992c074),
so get rid of it in favor of merging into the former.
Also, enable the LO comment test that was added by commit 70ad7ed4e,
since the later commit added the then-missing pg_upgrade functionality.
The large_object.sql test case is almost completely redundant with that,

The grammar will only accept something syntactically similar to a function
call in a function-in-FROM expression. However, there are various ways
to input something that ruleutils.c won't deparse that way, potentially
leading to a view or rule that fails dump/reload. Fix by inserting a
dummy CAST around anything that isn't going to deparse as a function
(which is one of the ways to get something like that in there in the
first place).
In HEAD, also make use of the infrastructure added by this to avoid
emitting unnecessary parentheses in CREATE INDEX deparsing. I did
not change that in back branches, thinking that people might find it
to be unexpected/unnecessary behavioral change.
In HEAD, also fix incorrect logic for when to add extra parens to
partition key expressions. Somebody apparently thought they could
get away with simpler logic than pg_get_indexdef_worker has, but
they were wrong --- a counterexample is PARTITION BY LIST ((a[1])).

Further investigation shows that ruleutils isn't quite up to speed either
for cases where we have a domain-over-array: it needs to be prepared to
look past a CoerceToDomain at the top level of field and element
assignments, else it decompiles them incorrectly. Potentially this would
result in failure to dump/reload a rule, if it looked like the one in the
new test case. (I also added a test for EXPLAIN; that output isn't broken,
but clearly we need more test coverage here.)
Like commit b1cb32fb6, this bug is reachable in cases we already support,
so back-patch all the way.
We allow INSERT and UPDATE commands to assign to the same column more than
once, as long as the assignments are to subfields or elements rather than
the whole column. However, this failed when the target column was a domain
over array rather than plain array. Fix by teaching process_matched_tle()
to look through CoerceToDomain nodes, and add relevant test cases.
Also add a group of test cases exercising domains over array of composite.
It's doubtless accidental that CREATE DOMAIN allows this case while not
allowing straight domain over composite; but it does, so we'd better make
sure we don't break it. (I could not find any documentation mentioning
either side of that, so no doc changes.)
It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

The previous logic, whilst not actually wrong, was overly complex and
involved doing two binary searches, where only one was really
necessary. This simplifies that logic and improves the comments.
One visible change is that if the new partition overlaps multiple
existing partitions, the error message now always reports the overlap
with the first existing partition (the one with the lowest
bounds). The old code would sometimes report the clash with the first
partition and sometimes with the last one.

Buildfarm members hornet and sungazer have shown multiple instances of
"Failed test 'xmin of non-cascaded slot with hs feedback has changed'".
The reason seems to be that the test is checking the current xmin of the
master server's replication slot against a past xmin of the first slave
server's replication slot. Even though the latter slot is downstream of
the former, it's possible for its reported xmin to be ahead of the former's
reported xmin, because those numbers are updated whenever the respective
downstream walreceiver feels like it (see logic in WalReceiverMain).
Instrumenting this test shows that indeed the slave slot's xmin does often
advance before the master's does, especially if an autovacuum transaction
manages to occur during the relevant window. If we happen to capture such
an advanced xmin as $xmin, then the subsequent wait_slot_xmins call can
fall through before the master's xmin has advanced at all, and then if it
advances before the get_slot_xmins call, we can get the observed failure.
Yeah, that's a bit of a long chain of deduction, but it's hard to explain
any other way how the test can get past an "xmin <> '$xmin'" check only
to have the next query find that xmin does equal $xmin.
Fix by keeping separate images of the master and slave slots' xmins
and testing their has-xmin-advanced conditions independently.
Since reducing pg_ctl's reaction time in commit c61559ec3, some
slower buildfarm members have shown erratic failures in this test.
The reason turns out to be that the test assumes synchronous
replication (because it does not provide any lag time for a commit
to replicate before shutting down the servers), but it had only
enabled sync rep in one direction. The observed symptoms correspond
to failure to replicate the last committed transaction in the other
direction, which can be expected to happen if the shutdown command
is issued soon enough and we are providing no synchronous-commit
guarantees.
Fix that, and add a bit more paranoid state checking at the bottom
of the script.

The original coding here was very confusing, because it named the
two servers it set up "master" and "slave" even though it swapped
their replication roles multiple times. At any given point in the
script it was very unobvious whether "$node_master" actually referred
to the server named "master" or the other one. Instead, pick arbitrary
names for the two servers --- I used "london" and "paris" --- and
distinguish those permanent names from the nonce references $cur_master
and $cur_slave. Add logging to help distinguish which is which at
any given point. Also, use distinct data and transaction names to
make all the prepared transactions easily distinguishable in the
postmaster logs. (There was one place where we intentionally tested
that the server could cope with re-use of a transaction name, but
it seems like one place is sufficient for that purpose.)
Also, add checks at the end to make sure that all the transactions
that were supposed to be committed did survive.

Add an optional "expected" argument to override the default assumption
that we're waiting for the query to return "t". This allows replacing
a handwritten polling loop in recovery/t/007_sync_rep.pl with use of
poll_query_until(); AFAICS that's the only remaining ad-hoc polling
loop in our TAP tests.
Change poll_query_until() to probe ten times per second not once per
second. Like some similar changes I've been making recently, the
one-second interval seems to be rooted in ancient traditions rather
than the actual likely wait duration on modern machines. I'd consider
reducing it further if there were a convenient way to spawn just one
psql for the whole loop rather than one per probe attempt.

Several callers of PostgresNode::poll_query_until() neglected to check
for failure; I do not think that's optional. Also, rewrite one place
that had reinvented poll_query_until() for no very good reason.
The point of this loop is to insert 1000 rows into the test table
and consume 1000 XIDs. I can't see any good reason why it's useful
to launch 1000 psqls and 1000 backend processes to accomplish that.
Pushing the looping into a plpgsql DO block shaves about 10 seconds
off the runtime of the src/test/recovery TAP tests on my machine;
that's over 10% of the runtime of that test suite.
It is, in fact, sufficiently more efficient that we now demonstrably
need wait_slot_xmins() afterwards, or the slaves' xmins may not have
moved yet.
We now disallow having triggers with both transition tables and ON
INSERT OR UPDATE (which was a PG extension to the spec anyway),
because in this case it's not at all clear how the transition tables
should work for an INSERT ... ON CONFLICT query. Separate ON INSERT
and ON UPDATE triggers with transition tables are allowed, and the
transition tables for these reflect only the inserted and only the
updated tuples respectively.
