Debian unstable is shipping a broken version of libedit: it de-escapes
words before passing them to the application's tab completion function,
preventing us from recognizing backslash commands. Fortunately,
we have enough information available to dig the original text out of
rl_line_buffer, so ignore the string argument and do that.
I view this as a temporary workaround to get the affected buildfarm
members back to green in the wake of 7c015045b. I hope we can get
rid of it once somebody fixes Debian's libedit; hence, no back-patch,
at least for now.

Up to now, psql's tab-complete.c has had exactly no regression test
coverage. This patch is an experimental attempt to add some.
This needs Perl's IO::Pty module, which isn't installed everywhere,
so the test script just skips all tests if that's not present.
There may be other portability gotchas too, so I await buildfarm
results with interest.
So far this just covers a few very basic keyword-completion and
query-driven-completion scenarios, which should be enough to let us
get a feel for whether this is practical at all from a portability
standpoint. If it is, there's lots more that can be done.

The refactoring done in a4fd3aa for query cancellation has messed up
with the logic in psql by mixing CancelRequested and cancel_pressed,
breaking for example \watch. The former would be switched to true if a
cancellation request has been attempted and that it actually succeeded,
and the latter tracks if a cancellation attempt has been done.
This commit brings back the code of psql to a state consistent to what
it was before a4fd3aa, without giving up on the refactoring pieces
introduced. It should be actually possible to merge more both flags as
their concepts are close enough, however note that psql's --single-step
mode relies on cancel_pressed to be always set, so this requires more
careful analysis left for later.
While on it, fix the declarations of CancelRequested (in cancel.c) and
cancel_pressed (in psql) to be volatile sig_atomic_t. Previously,
both were declared as booleans, which should be fine on modern
platforms, but the C standard recommends the use of sig_atomic_t for
variables used in signal handlers. Note that since its introduction in
a1792320, CancelRequested declaration was not volatile.

Prefer to call "rl_filename_completion_function" and
"rl_completion_matches", rather than using the names without the rl_
prefix. This matches Readline's documentation, and makes our code
a little clearer about which names are external. On platforms that
only have the un-prefixed names (just some very ancient versions of
libedit, AFAICT), reverse the direction of the compatibility macro
definitions to match.
Also, remove our extern declaration of "filename_completion_function";
whatever libedit versions may have failed to declare that are surely
dead and buried.

gcc-based Windows buildfarm animals are not happy about a multiline

Also remove the pointless $ at the end of the pattern, for extra luck.

On Windows, we use CMD.EXE to redirect the postmaster's stdout/stderr
into a log file. CMD.EXE will open that file with non-sharing-friendly
parameters, and the file will remain open for a short time after the
postmaster has removed postmaster.pid. This can result in an
ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION failure if we attempt to start a new postmaster
immediately with the same log file (e.g. during "pg_ctl restart").
This seems to explain intermittent buildfarm failures we've been seeing
on Windows machines.
To fix, just open and close the log file using our own pgwin32_open(),
which will wait if necessary to avoid the failure. (Perhaps someday
we should stop using CMD.EXE, but that would be a far more complex
patch, and it doesn't seem worth the trouble ... yet.)
Back-patch to v12. This only solves the problem when frontend fopen()
is redirected to pgwin32_fopen(), which has only been true since commit
0ba06e0bf. Hence, no point in back-patching further, unless we care

On Windows, all the hosts spawned by the TAP tests bind to 127.0.0.1.
Hence, if there is a port conflict, starting a cluster would immediately
fail. One of the test scripts of pg_ctl initializes a node without
PostgresNode.pm, using the default port 5432. This could cause
unexpected startup failures in the tests if an independent server was up
and running on the same host (the reverse is also possible, though more
unlikely). Fix this issue by assigning properly a free port to the node
configured, in the same range used as for the other nodes part of the
tests.

This commit revert the commits to add a test case that tests the 'force'
option when there is an active backend connected to the database being
dropped.
This feature internally sends SIGTERM to all the backends connected to the
database being dropped and then the same is reported to the client. We
found that on Windows, the client end of the socket is not able to read
the data once we close the socket in the server which leads to loss of
error message which is not what we expect. We also observed similar
behavior in other cases like pg_terminate_backend(),
pg_ctl kill TERM <pid>. There are probably a few others like that. The
fix for this requires further study.

XLogReader, walsender and pg_waldump all had their own routines to read
data from WAL files to memory, with slightly different approaches
according to the particular conditions of each environment. There's a
lot of commonality, so we can refactor that into a single routine
WALRead in XLogReader, and move the differences to a separate (simpler)
callback that just opens the next WAL-segment. This results in a
clearer (ahem) code flow.
The error reporting needs are covered by filling in a new error-info
struct, WALReadError, and it's the caller's responsibility to act on it.
The backend has WALReadRaiseError() to do so.

Up to now, whatever you'd edited was put back into the query buffer
but not redisplayed, which is less than user-friendly. But we can
improve that just by printing the text along with a prompt, if we
enforce that the editing result ends with a newline (which it
typically would anyway). You then continue typing more lines if
you want, or you can type ";" or do \g or \r or another \e.
This is intentionally divorced from readline's processing,
for simplicity and so that it works the same with or without
readline enabled. We discussed possibly integrating things
more closely with readline; but that seems difficult, uncertainly
portable across different readline and libedit versions, and
of limited real benefit anyway. Let's try the simple way and

pg_upgrade needs to check whether certain non-upgradable data types
appear anywhere on-disk in the source cluster. It knew that it has
to check for these types being contained inside domains and composite
types; but it somehow overlooked that they could be contained in
arrays and ranges, too. Extend the existing recursive-containment
query to handle those cases.
We probably should have noticed this oversight while working on
commit 0ccfc2822 and follow-ups, but we failed to :-(. The whole
thing's possibly a bit overdesigned, since we don't really expect
that any of these types will appear on disk; but if we're going to
the effort of doing a recursive search then it's silly not to cover
all the possibilities.
While at it, refactor so that we have only one copy of the search

There's plenty places in frontend code that could benefit from a
string buffer implementation. Some because it yields simpler and
faster code, and some others because of the desire to share code
between backend and frontend.
While there is a string buffer implementation available to frontend
code, libpq's PQExpBuffer, it is clunkier than stringinfo, it
introduces a libpq dependency, doesn't allow for sharing between
frontend and backend code, and has a higher API/ABI stability
requirement due to being exposed via libpq.
Therefore it seems best to just making StringInfo being usable by
frontend code. There's not much to do for that, except for rewriting
two subsequent elog/ereport calls into others types of error
reporting, and deciding on a maximum string length.
For the maximum string size I decided to privately define MaxAllocSize
to the same value as used in the backend. It seems likely that we'll
want to reconsider this for both backend and frontend code in the not
too far away future.
For now I've left stringinfo.h in lib/, rather than common/, to reduce
the likelihood of unnecessary breakage. We could alternatively decide
to provide a redirecting stringinfo.h in lib/, or just not provide
compatibility.

When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources
for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when
the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is
somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those

By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one

We prefer to avoid that, so add a comparison of the table names too.
(The sort order is thus table namespace, trigger name, table name,

When an FK constraint is created, it needs the index on the referenced
table to exist and be valid. When doing parallel pg_restore and the
referenced table was partitioned, this condition can sometimes not be
met, because pg_dump didn't emit sufficient object dependencies to

conditions. Fix by having pg_dump make the FK constraint object
