Previously, if pg_upgrade failed, and the user recreated the cluster but
did not remove the new cluster tablespace directory, a later pg_upgrade
would fail since the new tablespace directory would already exists.
This adds error reporting for this during check.

Commit 3eb3d3e78 was a few bricks shy of a load: while it correctly
set the table's "interesting" flag when deciding to dump the data of
an extension config table, it was not correct to clear that flag
if we concluded we shouldn't dump the data. This led to the crash
reported in bug #16655, because in fact we'll traverse dumpTableSchema
anyway for all extension tables (to see if they have user-added
seclabels or RLS policies).
The right thing to do is to force "interesting" true in makeTableDataInfo,
and otherwise leave the flag alone. (Doing it there is more future-proof
in case additional calls are added, and it also avoids setting the flag
unnecessarily if that function decides the table is non-dumpable.)
This investigation also showed that while only the --inserts code path
had an obvious failure in the case considered by 3eb3d3e78, the COPY
code path also has a problem with not having loaded table subsidiary
data. That causes fmtCopyColumnList to silently return an empty string
instead of the correct column list. That accidentally mostly works,
which perhaps is why we didn't notice this before. It would only fail
if the restore column order is different from the dump column order,
which only happens in weird inheritance cases, so it's not surprising
nobody had hit the case with an extension config table. Nonetheless,
it's a bug, and it goes a long way back, not just to v12 where the
--inserts code path started to have a problem with this.
In hopes of catching such cases a bit sooner in future, add some
Asserts that "interesting" has been set in both dumpTableData and
dumpTableSchema. Adjust the test case added by 3eb3d3e78 so that it
checks the COPY rather than INSERT form of that bug, allowing it to
detect the longer-standing symptom.
Per bug #16655 from Cameron Daniel. Back-patch to all supported
branches.

Parallel pg_dump failed if its -d parameter was a connection string
containing any essential information other than host, port, or username.
The same was true for pg_restore with --create.
The reason is that these scenarios failed to preserve the connection
string from the command line; the code felt free to replace that with
just the database name when reconnecting from a pg_dump parallel worker
or after creating the target database. By chance, parallel pg_restore
did not suffer this defect, as long as you didn't say --create.
In practice it seems that the error would be obvious only if the
connstring included essential, non-default SSL or GSS parameters.
This may explain why it took us so long to notice. (It also makes
it very difficult to craft a regression test case illustrating the
problem, since the test would fail in builds without those options.)
Fix by refactoring so that ConnectDatabase always receives all the
relevant options directly from the command line, rather than
reconstructed values. Inject a different database name, when necessary,
by relying on libpq's rules for handling multiple "dbname" parameters.
While here, let's get rid of the essentially duplicate _connectDB
function, as well as some obsolete nearby cruft.

This is duplicative of an lstat that was just done by the calling
function (traverse_datadir), besides which we weren't really doing
anything with the results. There's not much point in checking to
see if someone removed the file since the previous lstat, since the
FILE_ACTION_REMOVE code would have to deal with missing-file cases
anyway. Moreover, the "exists = false" assignment was a dead store;

If this data is not collected, pg_dump segfaults if asked for column
inserts.
Fix by Fabrízio de Royes Mello
Backpatch to release 12 where the bug was introduced.
A number of client programs have a "--progress" option that when printing
to a TTY, updates the current line by printing a '\r' and overwriting it.
After the last line, '\n' needs to be printed to move the cursor to the
next line. pg_basebackup and pgbench got this right, but pg_rewind and
pg_checksums were slightly wrong. pg_rewind printed the newline to stdout
instead of stderr, and pg_checksums printed the newline even when not
printing to a TTY. Fix them, and also add a 'finished' argument to
pg_basebackup's progress_report() function, to keep it consistent with
the other programs.
Backpatch to v12. pg_rewind's newline was broken with the logging changes
in commit cc8d415117 in v12, and pg_checksums was introduced in v12.

Parallel-restoring a foreign key that references a partitioned table
with several levels of partitions can fail:
pg_restore: while PROCESSING TOC:
pg_restore: from TOC entry 6684; 2606 29166 FK CONSTRAINT fk fk_a_fkey postgres
pg_restore: error: could not execute query: ERROR: there is no unique constraint matching given keys for referenced table "pk"
Command was: ALTER TABLE fkpart3.fk
ADD CONSTRAINT fk_a_fkey FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES fkpart3.pk(a);
This happens in parallel restore mode because some index partitions
aren't yet attached to the topmost partitioned index that the FK uses,
and so the index is still invalid. The current code marks the FK as
dependent on the first level of index-attach dump objects; the bug is
fixed by recursively marking the FK on their children.
Backpatch to 12, where FKs to partitioned tables were introduced.

Backpatch: 12-master
Coverity pointed out, not unreasonably, that we checked fseeko's
result at every other call site but these. Failure to seek in the
temp file (note this is NOT pg_dump's output file) seems quite
unlikely, and even if it did happen the file length cross-check
further down would probably detect the problem. Still, that's a
poor excuse for not checking the result of a system call.
pg_dump produces custom-format archive files that lack data offsets
when it is unable to seek its output. Up to now that's been a hazard
for pg_restore. But if pg_restore is able to seek in the archive
file, there is no reason to throw up our hands when asked to restore
data blocks out of order. Instead, whenever we are searching for a
data block, record the locations of the blocks we passed over (that
is, fill in the missing data-offset fields in our in-memory copy of
the TOC data). Then, when we hit a case that requires going
backwards, we can just seek back.
Also track the furthest point that we've searched to, and seek back
to there when beginning a search for a new data block. This avoids
possible O(N^2) time consumption, by ensuring that each data block
is examined at most twice. (On Unix systems, that's at most twice
per parallel-restore job; but since Windows uses threads here, the
threads can share block location knowledge, reducing the amount of
duplicated work.)
We can also improve the code a bit by using fseeko() to skip over
data blocks during the search.
This is all of some use even in simple restores, but it's really
significant for parallel pg_restore. In that case, we require
seekability of the input already, and we will very probably need
to do out-of-order restores.
Back-patch to v12, as this fixes a regression introduced by commit
548e50976. Before that, parallel restore avoided requesting
out-of-order restores, so it would work on a data-offset-less
archive. Now it will again.
Ideally this patch would include some test coverage, but there are
other open bugs that need to be fixed before we can extend our
coverage of parallel restore very much. Plan to revisit that later.

We do not really need to track the file position by hand. We were
already relying on ftello() whenever the archive file is seekable,
while if it's not seekable we don't need the file position info
anyway because we're not going to be able to re-write the TOC.
Moreover, that tracking was buggy since it failed to account for
the effects of fseeko(). Somewhat remarkably, that seems not to
have made for any live bugs up to now. We could fix the oversights,
but it seems better to just get rid of the whole error-prone mess.
In itself this is merely code cleanup. However, it's necessary
infrastructure for an upcoming bug-fix patch (because that code
*does* need valid file position after fseeko). The bug fix
needs to go back as far as v12; hence, back-patch that far.

pg_test_fsync has always opened files using the text mode on Windows, as
this is the default mode used if not enforced by _setmode().
This fixes a failure when running pg_test_fsync down to 12 because
O_DSYNC and the text mode are not able to work together nicely. We
fixed the handling of O_DSYNC in 12~ for the tool by switching to the
concurrent-safe version of fopen() in src/port/ with 0ba06e0. And
40cfe86, by enforcing the text mode for compatibility reasons if O_TEXT
or O_BINARY are not specified by the caller, broke pg_test_fsync. For
all versions, this avoids any translation overhead, and pg_test_fsync
should test binary writes, so it is a gain in all cases.
Note that O_DSYNC is still not handled correctly in ~11, leading to
pg_test_fsync to show insanely high numbers for open_datasync() (using
this property it is easy to notice that the binary mode is much
faster). This would require a backpatch of 0ba06e0 and 40cfe86, which
could potentially break existing applications, so this is left out.
There are no TAP tests for this tool yet, so I have checked all builds
manually using MSVC. We could invent a new option to run a single
transaction instead of using a duration of 1s to make the tests a
maximum short, but this is left as future work.

When working with an online source cluster, pg_rewind gets a list of all
the files in the source data directory using a WITH RECURSIVE query,
returning a NULL result for a file's metadata if it gets removed between
the moment it is listed in a directory and the moment its metadata is
obtained with pg_stat_file() (say a recycled WAL segment). The query
result was processed in such a way that for each tuple we checked only
that the first file's metadata was NULL. This could have two
consequences, both resulting in a failure of the rewind:
- If the first tuple referred to a removed file, all files from the
source would be ignored.
- Any file actually missing would not be considered as such.
While on it, rework slightly the code so as no values are saved if we
know that a file is going to be skipped.

Parallel pg_restore has always supposed that ACL items for different
objects are independent and can be restored in parallel without
conflicts. However, there is one case where this fails: because
REVOKE on a table is defined to also revoke the privilege(s) at
column level, we can't restore per-column ACLs till after we restore
any table-level privileges on their table. Failure to honor this
restriction can lead to "tuple concurrently updated" errors during
parallel restore, or even to the per-column ACLs silently disappearing
because the table-level REVOKE is executed afterwards.
To fix, add a dependency from each column-level ACL item to its table's
ACL item, if there is one. Note that this doesn't fix the hazard
for pre-existing archive files, only for ones made with a corrected
pg_dump. Given that the bug's been there quite awhile without
field reports, I think this is acceptable.
This requires changing the API of pg_dump's dumpACL() function.
To keep its argument list from getting even longer, I removed the
"CatalogId objCatId" argument, which has been unused for ages.

Writing a trailing semicolon in a macro is almost never the right thing,
because you almost always want to write a semicolon after each macro
call instead. (Even if there was some reason to prefer not to, pgindent
would probably make a hash of code formatted that way; so within PG the
rule should basically be "don't do it".) Thus, if we have a semi inside
the macro, the compiler sees "something;;". Much of the time the extra
empty statement is harmless, but it could lead to mysterious syntax
errors at call sites. In perhaps an overabundance of neatnik-ism, let's
run around and get rid of the excess semicolons whereever possible.
The only thing worse than a mysterious syntax error is a mysterious
syntax error that only happens in the back branches; therefore,
backpatch these changes where relevant, which is most of them because
most of these mistakes are old. (The lack of reported problems shows
that this is largely a hypothetical issue, but still, it could bite
us in some future patch.)

Sticking this comment at the end of the last line was a bad idea: it's
not particularly readable, and it tempts pgindent to mess with line

While that's not hard to fix, there's basically no excuse for this
arrangement to begin with, especially since it makes the table layout
needlessly vary across back branches with different pgindent rules.

Previously, event triggers were restored just after regular triggers
(and FK constraints, which are basically triggers). This is risky
since an event trigger, once installed, could interfere with subsequent
restore commands. Worse, because event triggers don't have any
particular dependencies on any post-data objects, a parallel restore
would consider them eligible to be restored the moment the post-data
phase starts, allowing them to also interfere with restoration of a
whole bunch of objects that would have been restored before them in
a serial restore. There's no way to completely remove the risk of a
misguided event trigger breaking the restore, since if nothing else
it could break other event triggers. But we can certainly push them
to later in the process to minimize the hazard.
To fix, tweak the RestorePass mechanism introduced by commit 3eb9a5e7c
so that event triggers are handled as part of the post-ACL processing
pass (renaming the "REFRESH" pass to "POST_ACL" to reflect its more
general use). This will cause them to restore after everything except
matview refreshes, which seems OK since matview refreshes really ought
to run in the post-restore state of the database. In a parallel
restore, event triggers and matview refreshes might be intermixed,
but that seems all right as well.
Also update the code and comments in pg_dump_sort.c so that its idea
of how things are sorted agrees with what actually happens due to
the RestorePass mechanism. This is mostly cosmetic: it'll affect the
order of objects in a dump's TOC, but not the actual restore order.
But not changing that would be quite confusing to somebody reading
the code.

Commit 0da33c762 introduced an unfortunate regression in pg_ctl on

pg_ctl is running with Administrator privileges, then the log file
