Design problems were discovered in the handling of composite types and
record types that would cause some relevant versions not to be recorded.
Misgivings were also expressed about the use of the pg_depend catalog
for this purpose. We're out of time for this release so we'll revert
and try again.

Don't advocate dropping a whole table when dropping a column would
serve. While at it, try to make the layout of these messages a
bit cleaner and more consistent.
Per suggestion from Daniel Gustafsson. No back-patch, as we generally
don't like to churn translatable messages in released branches.

Commits 29aeda6e4 et al closed up some oversights involving not checking
for non-upgradable types within container types, such as arrays and
ranges. However, I only looked at version.c, failing to notice that
there were substantially-equivalent tests in check.c. (The division
of responsibility between those files is less than clear...)
In addition, because genbki.pl does not guarantee that auto-generated
rowtype OIDs will hold still across versions, we need to consider that
the composite type associated with a system catalog or view is
non-upgradable. It seems unlikely that someone would have a user
column declared that way, but if they did, trying to read it in another
PG version would likely draw "no such pg_type OID" failures, thanks
to the type OID embedded in composite Datums.
To support the composite and reg*-type cases, extend the recursive
query that does the search to allow any base query that returns
a column of pg_type OIDs, rather than limiting it to exactly one
starting type.
As before, back-patch to all supported branches.

The verification of permissions doesn't succeed on Cygwin, because the
required feature is not implemented for Cygwin at the moment. So skip
this part of the test, like MinGW already does.
Instead, put them in via a format placeholder. This reduces the
number of distinct translatable messages and also reduces the chances
of typos during translation. We already did this for the system call
arguments in a number of cases, so this is just the same thing taken a
bit further.

With the 'noError' argument, you can try to convert a buffer without
knowing the character boundaries beforehand. The functions now need to
return the number of input bytes successfully converted.
This is is a backwards-incompatible change, if you have created a custom
encoding conversion with CREATE CONVERSION. This adds a check to
pg_upgrade for that, refusing the upgrade if there are any user-defined
encoding conversions. Custom conversions are very rare, there are no
commonly used extensions that I know of that uses that feature. No other
objects can depend on conversions, so if you do have one, you can fairly
easily drop it before upgrading, and recreate it after the upgrade with
an updated version.
Add regression tests for built-in encoding conversions. This doesn't cover
every conversion, but it covers all the internal functions in conv.c that
are used to implement the conversions.

Moving this logic into pg_regress fixes a potential failure with
parallel tests when pg_upgrade and the main regression test suite both
trigger the makefile rule that cleaned up testtablespace/ under
src/test/regress. Even if pg_upgrade was triggering this rule, it has
no need to do so as it uses a different tablespace path. So if
pg_upgrade triggered the makefile rule for the tablespace setup while
the main regression test suite ran the tablespace cases, it would fail.
61be85a was a similar attempt at achieving that, but that broke cases
where the regression tests require to run under an Administrator
account, like with Appveyor.

libpq's error messages for connection failures pretty well stand on
their own, especially since commits 52a10224e/27a48e5a1. Prefixing
them with 'could not connect to database "foo"' or the like is just
redundant, and perhaps even misleading if the specific database name
isn't relevant to the failure. (When it is, we trust that the
backend's error message will include the DB name.) Indeed, psql
hasn't used any such prefix in a long time. So, make all our other
programs and documentation examples agree with psql's practice.

Commit 7ca37fb04 removed regress_putenv from the regress.so library,
so reloading a SQL function dependent on that would not work.
Fix similarly to 52202bb39.
Per buildfarm.
Since at least 2001 we've used putenv() and avoided setenv(), on the
grounds that the latter was unportable and not in POSIX. However,
POSIX added it that same year, and by now the situation has reversed:
setenv() is probably more portable than putenv(), since POSIX now
treats the latter as not being a core function. And setenv() has
cleaner semantics too. So, let's reverse that old policy.
This commit adds a simple src/port/ implementation of setenv() for
any stragglers (we have one in the buildfarm, but I'd not be surprised
if that code is never used in the field). More importantly, extend
win32env.c to also support setenv(). Then, replace usages of putenv()
with setenv(), and get rid of some ad-hoc implementations of setenv()
wannabees.
Also, adjust our src/port/ implementation of unsetenv() to follow the
POSIX spec that it returns an error indicator, rather than returning
void as per the ancient BSD convention. I don't feel a need to make
all the call sites check for errors, but the portability stub ought
to match real-world practice.

A number of places were using appendStringInfo() when they could have been
using appendStringInfoString() instead. While there's no functionality
change there, it's just more efficient to use appendStringInfoString()
when no formatting is required. Likewise for some
appendStringInfoString() calls which were just appending a single char.
We can just use appendStringInfoChar() for that.
Additionally, many places were using appendPQExpBuffer() when they could
have used appendPQExpBufferStr(). Change those too.

This feature has been a thorn in our sides for a long time, causing
many grammatical ambiguity problems. It doesn't seem worth the
pain to continue to support it, so remove it.
There are some follow-on improvements we can make in the grammar,
but this commit only removes the bare minimum number of productions,
plus assorted backend support code.
Note that pg_dump and psql continue to have full support, since
they may be used against older servers. However, pg_dump warns
about postfix operators. There is also a check in pg_upgrade.
Documentation-wise, I (tgl) largely removed the "left unary"
terminology in favor of saying "prefix operator", which is
a more standard and IMO less confusing term.
I included a catversion bump, although no initial catalog data
changes here, to mark the boundary at which oprkind = 'r'
stopped being valid in pg_operator.

Using --outputdir with a custom output repository has never created by
default the sql/ and expected/ paths generated with contents from
respectively input/ and output/ if they don't exist, while the base
output directory gets created if it does not exist. If sql/ and
expected/ are not present, pg_regress would fail with the path missing,
requiring test scripts to create those extra paths by themselves. This
commit changes pg_regress so as both get created by default if they do
not exist, removing the need for external test scripts to do so.
This cleans up two code paths in the tree for pg_upgrade tests in MSVC
and environments able to use test.sh. sql/ and expected/ were created
as part of each test script, but this is not needed anymore as
pg_regress handles the work now.

As of Windows 10 version 1803, Unix-domain sockets are supported on
Windows. But it's not automatically detected by configure because it
looks for struct sockaddr_un and Windows doesn't define that. So we
just make our own definition on Windows and override the configure
result.
Set DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR to empty on Windows so by default no
Unix-domain socket is used, because there is no good standard
location.
In pg_upgrade, we have to do some extra tweaking to preserve the
existing behavior of not using Unix-domain sockets on Windows. Adding
support would be desirable, but it needs further work, in particular a
way to select whether to use Unix-domain sockets from the command-line
or with a run-time test.
The pg_upgrade test script needs a fix. The previous code passed
"localhost" to postgres -k, which only happened to work because
Windows used to ignore the -k argument value altogether. We instead
need to pass an empty string to get the desired effect.
The test suites will continue to not use Unix-domain sockets on
Windows. This requires a small tweak in pg_regress.c. The TAP tests
don't need to be changed because they decide by the operating system
rather than HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS.

This patch fixes the error message in get_major_server_version() to be

Also, commit 4109bb5de4 added the cause of the failure to the "could

the "could not open" cause to PG 12, where it was first widely used, and
backpatches the quoting fix in that patch to all supported releases.

The previous coding forgot to apply shell quoting to the socket
directory and the data folder, leading to failures when running
pg_upgrade. This refactors the code generating the pg_ctl command
starting clusters to use a more correct shell quoting. Failures are
easier to trigger in 12 and newer versions by using a value of
--socketdir that includes quotes, but it is also possible to cause
failures with quotes included in the default socket directory used by
pg_upgrade or the data folders of the clusters involved in the
upgrade.
As 9.4 is going to be EOL'd with the next minor release, nobody is
likely going to upgrade to it now so this branch is not included in the

We used to strategically place newlines after some function call left
parentheses to make pgindent move the argument list a few chars to the

vertically longer for no reason. Remove those newlines, and reflow some

This patch creates a new extension property, "trusted". An extension
that's marked that way in its control file can be installed by a
non-superuser who has the CREATE privilege on the current database,
even if the extension contains objects that normally would have to be
created by a superuser. The objects within the extension will (by
default) be owned by the bootstrap superuser, but the extension itself
will be owned by the calling user. This allows replicating the old
behavior around trusted procedural languages, without all the
special-case logic in CREATE LANGUAGE. We have, however, chosen to
loosen the rules slightly: formerly, only a database owner could take
advantage of the special case that allowed installation of a trusted
language, but now anyone who has CREATE privilege can do so.
Having done that, we can delete the pg_pltemplate catalog, moving the
knowledge it contained into the extension script files for the various
PLs. This ends up being no change at all for the in-core PLs, but it is
a large step forward for external PLs: they can now have the same ease
of installation as core PLs do. The old "trusted PL" behavior was only
available to PLs that had entries in pg_pltemplate, but now any
extension can be marked trusted if appropriate.
This also removes one of the stumbling blocks for our Python 2 -> 3
migration, since the association of "plpythonu" with Python 2 is no
longer hard-wired into pg_pltemplate's initial contents. Exactly where
we go from here on that front remains to be settled, but one problem
is fixed.
