Improve error reporting in pg_upgrade's file copying/linking/rewriting.
The previous design for this had copyFile(), linkFile(), and
rewriteVisibilityMap() returning strerror strings, with the caller
producing one-size-fits-all error messages based on that. This made it
impossible to produce messages that described the failures with any degree
of precision, especially not short-read problems since those don't set
errno at all.
Since pg_upgrade has no intention of continuing after any error in this
area, let's fix this by just letting these functions call pg_fatal() for
themselves, making it easy for each point of failure to have a suitable
error message. Taking this approach also allows dropping cleanup code
that was unnecessary and was often rather sloppy about preserving errno.
To not lose relevant info that was reported before, pass in the schema name
and table name of the current table so that they can be included in the
error reports.
An additional problem was the use of getErrorText(), which was flat out
wrong for all but a couple of call sites, because it unconditionally did
"_dosmaperr(GetLastError())" on Windows. That's only appropriate when
reporting an error from a Windows-native API, which only a couple of
the callers were actually doing. Thus, even the reported strerror string
would be unrelated to the actual failure in many cases on Windows.
To fix, get rid of getErrorText() altogether, and just have call sites
do strerror(errno) instead, since that's the way all the rest of our
frontend programs do it. Add back the _dosmaperr() calls in the two
places where that's actually appropriate.
In passing, make assorted messages hew more closely to project style
guidelines, notably by removing initial capitals in not-complete-sentence
primary error messages. (I didn't make any effort to clean up places
I didn't have another reason to touch, though.)

Fix multiple portability issues in pg_upgrade's rewriteVisibilityMap().
This is new code in 9.6, and evidently we missed out testing it as
thoroughly as it should have been. Bugs fixed here:
1. Use binary not text mode to open the files on Windows. Before, if
the visibility map chanced to contain two bytes that looked like \r\n,
Windows' read() would convert that to \n, which both corrupts the map
data and causes the file to look shorter than it should. Unless you
were *very* unlucky and had an exact multiple of 8K such occurrences
in each VM file, this would cause pg_upgrade to report a failure,
though with a rather obscure error message.
2. The code for copying rebuilt bytes into the output was simply wrong.
It chanced to work okay on little-endian machines but would emit the
bytes in the wrong order on big-endian, leading to silent corruption
of the visibility map data.
3. The code was careless about alignment of the working buffers. Given
all three of an alignment-picky architecture, a compiler that chooses
to put the new_vmbuf[] local variable at an odd starting address, and
a checksum-enabled database, pg_upgrade would dump core.
Point one was reported by Thomas Kellerer, the other two detected by
code-reading.
Point two is much the nastiest of these issues from an impact standpoint,
though fortunately it affects only a minority of users. The Windows issue
will definitely bite people, but it seems quite unlikely that there would
be undetected corruption from that.
In addition, I failed to resist the temptation to do some minor cosmetic
adjustments, mostly improving the comments.
It would be a good idea to try to improve the error reporting here, but

Rationalize format-picture caching logic in formatting.c.
Add a validity flag to DCHCacheEntry and NUMCacheEntry entries, and

This is primarily driven by a proposed patch from Artur Zakirov,

Pushing an upper-level restriction clause into an unflattened

Rationalize parallel dump/restore's handling of worker cmd/status messages.
The existing APIs for creating and parsing command and status messages are
rather messy; for example, archive-format modules have to provide code
for constructing command messages, which is entirely pointless since
the code to read them is hard-wired in WaitForCommands() and hence
no format-specific variation is actually possible. But there's little
foreseeable reason to need format-specific variation anyway.
The situation for status messages is no better; at least those are both
constructed and parsed by format-specific code, but said code is quite
redundant since there's no actual need for format-specific variation.
To add insult to injury, the first API involves returning pointers to
static buffers, which is bad, while the second involves returning pointers
to malloc'd strings, which is safer but randomly inconsistent.
Hence, get rid of the MasterStartParallelItem and MasterEndParallelItem
APIs, and instead write centralized functions that construct and parse
command and status messages. If we ever do need more flexibility, these
functions can be the standard implementations of format-specific
callback methods, but that's a long way off if it ever happens.
The ListenToWorkers/ReapWorkerStatus APIs were messy and hard to use.
Instead, make DispatchJobForTocEntry register a callback function that
will take care of state cleanup, doing whatever had been done by the caller
of ReapWorkerStatus in the old design. (This callback is essentially just
the old mark_work_done function in the restore case, and a trivial test for
worker failure in the dump case.) Then we can have ListenToWorkers call
the callback immediately on receipt of a status message, and return the
worker to WRKR_IDLE state; so the WRKR_FINISHED state goes away.
This allows us to design a unified wait-for-worker-messages loop:
WaitForWorkers replaces EnsureIdleWorker and EnsureWorkersFinished as well
as the mess in restore_toc_entries_parallel. Also, we no longer need the
fragile API spec that the caller of DispatchJobForTocEntry is responsible
for ensuring there's an idle worker, since DispatchJobForTocEntry can just
wait until there is one.

in terms of notational verboseness, and didn't seem to be providing any

Improve contrib/cube's handling of zero-D cubes, infinities, and NaNs.

other places that didn't behave sanely for zero-dimensional cubes:
cube_size would produce 1.0 when surely the answer should be 0.0,
and g_cube_distance risked a divide-by-zero failure.
Likewise, it's always been possible to create cubes containing float8
infinity or NaN coordinate values, but cube_in couldn't parse such input,

Replace the built-in GIN array opclasses with a single polymorphic opclass.
We had thirty different GIN array opclasses sharing the same operators and
support functions. That still didn't cover all the built-in types, nor
did it cover arrays of extension-added types. What we want is a single
polymorphic opclass for "anyarray". There were two missing features needed
to make this possible:
1. We have to be able to declare the index storage type as ANYELEMENT
when the opclass is declared to index ANYARRAY. This just takes a few
more lines in index_create(). Although this currently seems of use only
for GIN, there's no reason to make index_create() restrict it to that.
2. We have to be able to identify the proper GIN compare function for
the index storage type. This patch proceeds by making the compare function
optional in GIN opclass definitions, and specifying that the default btree
comparison function for the index storage type will be looked up when the
opclass omits it. Again, that seems pretty generically useful.
Since the comparison function lookup is done in initGinState(), making
use of the second feature adds an additional cache lookup to GIN index
access setup. It seems unlikely that that would be very noticeable given
the other costs involved, but maybe at some point we should consider
making GinState data persist longer than it now does --- we could keep it
in the index relcache entry, perhaps.
Rather fortuitously, we don't seem to need to do anything to get this
change to play nice with dump/reload or pg_upgrade scenarios: the new
opclass definition is automatically selected to replace existing index
definitions, and the on-disk data remains compatible. Also, if a user has
created a custom opclass definition for a non-builtin type, this doesn't
break that, since CREATE INDEX will prefer an exact match to opcintype
over a match to ANYARRAY. However, if there's anyone out there with
handwritten DDL that explicitly specifies _bool_ops or one of the other
replaced opclass names, they'll need to adjust that.

When win32security.c was moved from src/backend/port/win32/security.c,
the message writing function was changed from write_stderr to log_error,
but nls.mk was not updated. We could add log_error to GETTEXT_TRIGGERS,
but it's also used in src/common/exec.c in a different way and that
would create some confusion or a larger patch. For now, just put an
explicit translation marker onto the strings that were previously
translated.

Retry DSM control segment creation if Windows indicates access denied.
Otherwise, attempts to run multiple postmasters running on the same
machine may fail, because Windows sometimes returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED
rather than ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS when there is an existing segment.
Hitting this bug is much more likely because of another defect not
fixed by this patch, namely that dsm_postmaster_startup() uses
random() which returns the same value every time. But that's not
a reason not to fix this.

Fix SSL test suite to work with OpenSSL 1.1.0. CA certificates must have

Be pickier about converting between Name and Datum.
We were misapplying NameGetDatum() to plain C strings in some places.
This worked, because it was just a pointer cast anyway, but it's a type
cheat in some sense. Use CStringGetDatum instead, and modify the
NameGetDatum macro so it won't compile if applied to something that's
not a pointer to NameData. This should result in no changes to
generated code, but it is logically cleaner.

Improve parser's and planner's handling of set-returning functions.
Teach the parser to reject misplaced set-returning functions during parse
analysis using p_expr_kind, in much the same way as we do for aggregates
and window functions (cf commit eaccfded9). While this isn't complete
(it misses nesting-based restrictions), it's much better than the previous
error reporting for such cases, and it allows elimination of assorted
ad-hoc expression_returns_set() error checks. We could add nesting checks
later if it seems important to catch all cases at parse time.
There is one case the parser will now throw error for although previous
versions allowed it, which is SRFs in the tlist of an UPDATE. That never
behaved sensibly (since it's ill-defined which generated row should be
used to perform the update) and it's hard to see why it should not be
treated as an error. It's a release-note-worthy change though.
Also, add a new Query field hasTargetSRFs reporting whether there are
any SRFs in the targetlist (including GROUP BY/ORDER BY expressions).
The parser can now set that basically for free during parse analysis,
and we can use it in a number of places to avoid expression_returns_set
searches. (There will be more such checks soon.) In some places, this
allows decontorting the logic since it's no longer expensive to check for
SRFs in the tlist --- so I made the checks parallel to the handling of
hasAggs/hasWindowFuncs wherever it seemed appropriate.
catversion bump because adding a Query field changes stored rules.

Have heapam.h include lockdefs.h rather than lock.h.
lockdefs.h was only split from lock.h relatively recently, and

We're considering changing the implementation of targetlist SRFs

bys). The buildfarm will tell us.

Allow CREATE EXTENSION to follow extension update paths.
Previously, to update an extension you had to produce both a version-update
script and a new base installation script. It's become more and more
obvious that that's tedious, duplicative, and error-prone. This patch
attempts to improve matters by allowing the new base installation script
to be omitted. CREATE EXTENSION will install a requested version if it
can find a base script and a chain of update scripts that will get there.
As in the existing update logic, shorter chains are preferred if there's
more than one possibility, with an arbitrary tie-break rule for chains
of equal length.
Also adjust the pg_available_extension_versions view to show such versions
as installable.
While at it, refactor the code so that CASCADE processing works for
extensions requested during ApplyExtensionUpdates(). Without this,
addition of a new requirement in an updated extension would require
creating a new base script, even if there was no other reason to do that.
(It would be easy at this point to add a CASCADE option to ALTER EXTENSION
UPDATE, to allow the same thing to happen during a manually-commanded
version update, but I have not done that here.)
