8c0939dada Handle spaces for Python install location in MSVC scripts
Attempting to use an installation path of Python that includes spaces
caused the MSVC builds to fail.  This fixes the issue by using the same
quoting method as ad7595b for OpenSSL.

6b02bee66c Use a slightly more liberal regex to detect Visual Studio version
Apparently in some language versions of Visual Studio nmake outputs some
material after the version number and before the end of the line. This
has been seen in Chinese versions. Therefore, we no longer demand that
the version string comes at the end of a line.

Per complaint from Cuiping Lin.

ec38d23111 Handle spaces in OpenSSL install location for MSVC
First, make sure that the .exe name is quoted when trying to get the
version number. Also, don't quote the lib name for using in the project
files if it's already been quoted. This second change applies to all
libraries, not just OpenSSL.

This has clearly been broken forever, so backpatch to all live branches.

dc92bf5cad Expand properly list of TAP tests used for prove in vcregress.pl
Depending on the system used, t/*.pl may not be expanded into a list of
tests which can be consumed by prove when attempting to run TAP tests on
a given path.  Fix that by using glob() directly in the script, to make
sure that a complete list of tests is provided.  This has not proved to
be an issue with MSVC as the list was properly expanded, but it is on
Linux with perl's system().

This is extracted from a larger patch.

121e3ceed6 Avoid using INFO elevel for what are fundamentally debug messages.
Commit 6f6b99d13 stuck an INFO message into the fast path for
checking partition constraints, for no very good reason except
that it made it easy for the regression tests to verify that
that path was taken.  Assorted later patches did likewise,
increasing the unsuppressable-chatter level from ALTER TABLE
even more.  This isn't good for the user experience, so let's
drop these messages down to DEBUG1 where they belong.  So as
not to have a loss of test coverage, create a TAP test that
runs the relevant queries with client_min_messages = DEBUG1
and greps for the expected messages.

This testing method is a bit brute-force --- in particular,
it duplicates the execution of a fair amount of the core
create_table and alter_table tests.  We experimented with
other solutions, but running any significant amount of
standard testing with client_min_messages = DEBUG1 seems
to have a lot of output-stability pitfalls, cf commits
bbb96c370 and 5655565c0.  Possibly at some point we'll look
into whether we can reduce the amount of test duplication.

Backpatch into v12, because some of these messages are new
in v12 and we don't really want to ship it that way.

d993e0fb82 Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.0 and newer versions in MSVC scripts
Up to now, the MSVC build scripts are able to support only one fixed
version of OpenSSL, and they lacked logic to detect the version of
OpenSSL a given compilation of Postgres is linking to (currently 1.0.2,
the latest LTS of upstream which will be EOL'd at the end of 2019).

This commit adds more logic to detect the version of OpenSSL used by a
build and makes use of it to add support for compilation with OpenSSL
1.1.0 which requires a new set of compilation flags to work properly.

The supported OpenSSL installers have changed their library layer with
various library renames with the upgrade to 1.1.0, making the logic a
bit more complicated.  The scripts are now able to adapt to the new
world order.

40b132c1af In the pg_upgrade test suite, don't write to src/test/regress.
When this suite runs installcheck, redirect file creations from
src/test/regress to src/bin/pg_upgrade/tmp_check/regress.  This closes a
race condition in "make -j check-world".  If the pg_upgrade suite wrote
to a given src/test/regress/results file in parallel with the regular
src/test/regress invocation writing it, a test failed spuriously.  Even
without parallelism, in "make -k check-world", the suite finishing
second overwrote the other's regression.diffs.  This revealed test
"largeobject" assuming @abs_builddir@ is getcwd(), so fix that, too.

Buildfarm client REL_10, released fifty-four days ago, supports saving
regression.diffs from its new location.  When an older client reports a
pg_upgradeCheck failure, it will no longer include regression.diffs.
Back-patch to 9.5, where pg_upgrade moved to src/bin.

fc9a62af3f Move logging.h and logging.c from src/fe_utils/ to src/common/.
The original placement of this module in src/fe_utils/ is ill-considered,
because several src/common/ modules have dependencies on it, meaning that
libpgcommon and libpgfeutils now have mutual dependencies.  That makes it
pointless to have distinct libraries at all.  The intended design is that
libpgcommon is lower-level than libpgfeutils, so only dependencies from
the latter to the former are acceptable.

We already have the precedent that fe_memutils and a couple of other
modules in src/common/ are frontend-only, so it's not stretching anything
out of whack to treat logging.c as a frontend-only module in src/common/.
To the extent that such modules help provide a common frontend/backend
environment for the rest of common/ to use, it's a reasonable design.
(logging.c does not yet provide an ereport() emulation, but one can
dream.)

Hence, move these files over, and revert basically all of the build-system
changes made by commit cc8d41511.  There are no places that need to grow
new dependencies on libpgcommon, further reinforcing the idea that this
is the right solution.

c098509927 Consistently test for in-use shared memory.
postmaster startup scrutinizes any shared memory segment recorded in
postmaster.pid, exiting if that segment matches the current data
directory and has an attached process.  When the postmaster.pid file was
missing, a starting postmaster used weaker checks.  Change to use the
same checks in both scenarios.  This increases the chance of a startup
failure, in lieu of data corruption, if the DBA does "kill -9 `head -n1
postmaster.pid` && rm postmaster.pid && pg_ctl -w start".  A postmaster
will no longer stop if shmat() of an old segment fails with EACCES.  A
postmaster will no longer recycle segments pertaining to other data
directories.  That's good for production, but it's bad for integration
tests that crash a postmaster and immediately delete its data directory.
Such a test now leaks a segment indefinitely.  No "make check-world"
test does that.  win32_shmem.c already avoided all these problems.  In
9.6 and later, enhance PostgresNode to facilitate testing.  Back-patch
to 9.4 (all supported versions).

b0b39f72b9 GSSAPI encryption support
On both the frontend and backend, prepare for GSSAPI encryption
support by moving common code for error handling into a separate file.
Fix a TODO for handling multiple status messages in the process.
Eliminate the OIDs, which have not been needed for some time.

Add frontend and backend encryption support functions.  Keep the
context initiation for authentication-only separate on both the
frontend and backend in order to avoid concerns about changing the
requested flags to include encryption support.

In postmaster, pull GSSAPI authorization checking into a shared
function.  Also share the initiator name between the encryption and
non-encryption codepaths.

For HBA, add "hostgssenc" and "hostnogssenc" entries that behave
similarly to their SSL counterparts.  "hostgssenc" requires either
"gss", "trust", or "reject" for its authentication.

Similarly, add a "gssencmode" parameter to libpq.  Supported values are
"disable", "require", and "prefer".  Notably, negotiation will only be
attempted if credentials can be acquired.  Move credential acquisition
into its own function to support this behavior.

Add a simple pg_stat_gssapi view similar to pg_stat_ssl, for monitoring
if GSSAPI authentication was used, what principal was used, and if
encryption is being used on the connection.

Finally, add documentation for everything new, and update existing
documentation on connection security.

Thanks to Michael Paquier for the Windows fixes.

cc8d415117 Unified logging system for command-line programs
This unifies the various ad hoc logging (message printing, error
printing) systems used throughout the command-line programs.

Features:

- Program name is automatically prefixed.

- Message string does not end with newline.  This removes a common
  source of inconsistencies and omissions.

- Additionally, a final newline is automatically stripped, simplifying
  use of PQerrorMessage() etc., another common source of mistakes.

- I converted error message strings to use %m where possible.

- As a result of the above several points, more translatable message
  strings can be shared between different components and between
  frontends and backend, without gratuitous punctuation or whitespace
  differences.

- There is support for setting a "log level".  This is not meant to be
  user-facing, but can be used internally to implement debug or
  verbose modes.

- Lazy argument evaluation, so no significant overhead if logging at
  some level is disabled.

- Some color in the messages, similar to gcc and clang.  Set
  PG_COLOR=auto to try it out.  Some colors are predefined, but can be
  customized by setting PG_COLORS.

- Common files (common/, fe_utils/, etc.) can handle logging much more
  simply by just using one API without worrying too much about the
  context of the calling program, requiring callbacks, or having to
  pass "progname" around everywhere.

- Some programs called setvbuf() to make sure that stderr is
  unbuffered, even on Windows.  But not all programs did that.  This
  is now done centrally.

Soft goals:

- Reduces vertical space use and visual complexity of error reporting
  in the source code.

- Encourages more deliberate classification of messages.  For example,
  in some cases it wasn't clear without analyzing the surrounding code
  whether a message was meant as an error or just an info.

- Concepts and terms are vaguely aligned with popular logging
  frameworks such as log4j and Python logging.

This is all just about printing stuff out.  Nothing affects program
flow (e.g., fatal exits).  The uses are just too varied to do that.
Some existing code had wrappers that do some kind of print-and-exit,
and I adapted those.

I tried to keep the output mostly the same, but there is a lot of
historical baggage to unwind and special cases to consider, and I
might not always have succeeded.  One significant change is that
pg_rewind used to write all error messages to stdout.  That is now
changed to stderr.

72b6460336 Partial implementation of SQL/JSON path language
SQL 2016 standards among other things contains set of SQL/JSON features for
JSON processing inside of relational database.  The core of SQL/JSON is JSON
path language, allowing access parts of JSON documents and make computations
over them.  This commit implements partial support JSON path language as
separate datatype called "jsonpath".  The implementation is partial because
it's lacking datetime support and suppression of numeric errors.  Missing
features will be added later by separate commits.

Support of SQL/JSON features requires implementation of separate nodes, and it
will be considered in subsequent patches.  This commit includes following
set of plain functions, allowing to execute jsonpath over jsonb values:

 * jsonb_path_exists(jsonb, jsonpath[, jsonb, bool]),
 * jsonb_path_match(jsonb, jsonpath[, jsonb, bool]),
 * jsonb_path_query(jsonb, jsonpath[, jsonb, bool]),
 * jsonb_path_query_array(jsonb, jsonpath[, jsonb, bool]).
 * jsonb_path_query_first(jsonb, jsonpath[, jsonb, bool]).

This commit also implements "jsonb @? jsonpath" and "jsonb @@ jsonpath", which
are wrappers over jsonpath_exists(jsonb, jsonpath) and jsonpath_predicate(jsonb,
jsonpath) correspondingly.  These operators will have an index support
(implemented in subsequent patches).

Catversion bumped, to add new functions and operators.

02a6a54ecd Make use of compiler builtins and/or assembly for CLZ, CTZ, POPCNT.
Test for the compiler builtins __builtin_clz, __builtin_ctz, and
__builtin_popcount, and make use of these in preference to
handwritten C code if they're available.  Create src/port
infrastructure for "leftmost one", "rightmost one", and "popcount"
so as to centralize these decisions.

On x86_64, __builtin_popcount generally won't make use of the POPCNT
opcode because that's not universally supported yet.  Provide code
that checks CPUID and then calls POPCNT via asm() if available.
This requires indirecting through a function pointer, which is
an annoying amount of overhead for a one-instruction operation,
but it's probably not worth working harder than this for our
current use-cases.

I'm not sure we've found all the existing places that could profit
from this new infrastructure; but we at least touched all the
ones that used copied-and-pasted versions of the bitmapset.c code,
and got rid of multiple copies of the associated constant arrays.

While at it, replace c-compiler.m4's one-per-builtin-function
macros with a single one that can handle all the cases we need
to worry about so far.  Also, because I'm paranoid, make those
checks into AC_LINK checks rather than just AC_COMPILE; the
former coding failed to verify that libgcc has support for the
builtin, in cases where it's not inline code.

02ddd49932 Change floating-point output format for improved performance.
Previously, floating-point output was done by rounding to a specific
decimal precision; by default, to 6 or 15 decimal digits (losing
information) or as requested using extra_float_digits. Drivers that
wanted exact float values, and applications like pg_dump that must
preserve values exactly, set extra_float_digits=3 (or sometimes 2 for
historical reasons, though this isn't enough for float4).

Unfortunately, decimal rounded output is slow enough to become a
noticable bottleneck when dealing with large result sets or COPY of
large tables when many floating-point values are involved.

Floating-point output can be done much faster when the output is not
rounded to a specific decimal length, but rather is chosen as the
shortest decimal representation that is closer to the original float
value than to any other value representable in the same precision. The
recently published Ryu algorithm by Ulf Adams is both relatively
simple and remarkably fast.

Accordingly, change float4out/float8out to output shortest decimal
representations if extra_float_digits is greater than 0, and make that
the new default. Applications that need rounded output can set
extra_float_digits back to 0 or below, and take the resulting
performance hit.

We make one concession to portability for systems with buggy
floating-point input: we do not output decimal values that fall
exactly halfway between adjacent representable binary values (which
would rely on the reader doing round-to-nearest-even correctly). This
is known to be a problem at least for VS2013 on Windows.

Our version of the Ryu code originates from
https://github.com/ulfjack/ryu/ at commit c9c3fb1979, but with the
following (significant) modifications:

 - Output format is changed to use fixed-point notation for small
   exponents, as printf would, and also to use lowercase 'e', a
   minimum of 2 exponent digits, and a mandatory sign on the exponent,
   to keep the formatting as close as possible to previous output.

 - The output of exact midpoint values is disabled as noted above.

 - The integer fast-path code is changed somewhat (since we have
   fixed-point output and the upstream did not).

 - Our project style has been largely applied to the code with the
   exception of C99 declaration-after-statement, which has been
   retained as an exception to our present policy.

 - Most of upstream's debugging and conditionals are removed, and we
   use our own configure tests to determine things like uint128
   availability.

Changing the float output format obviously affects a number of
regression tests. This patch uses an explicit setting of
extra_float_digits=0 for test output that is not expected to be
exactly reproducible (e.g. due to numerical instability or differing
algorithms for transcendental functions).

Conversions from floats to numeric are unchanged by this patch. These
may appear in index expressions and it is not yet clear whether any
change should be made, so that can be left for another day.

This patch assumes that the only supported floating point format is
now IEEE format, and the documentation is updated to reflect that.

Code by me, adapting the work of Ulf Adams and other contributors.

f397e08599 Use strtof() and not strtod() for float4 input.
Using strtod() creates a double-rounding problem; the input decimal
value is first rounded to the nearest double; rounding that to the
nearest float may then give an incorrect result.

An example is that 7.038531e-26 when input via strtod and then rounded
to float4 gives 0xAE43FEp-107 instead of the correct 0xAE43FDp-107.

Values output by earlier PG versions with extra_float_digits=3 should
all be read in with the same values as previously. However, values
supplied by other software using shortest representations could be
mis-read.

On platforms that lack a strtof() entirely, we fall back to the old
incorrect rounding behavior. (As strtof() is required by C99, such
platforms are considered of primarily historical interest.) On VS2013,
some workarounds are used to get correct error handling.

The regression tests now test for the correct input values, so
platforms that lack strtof() will need resultmap entries. An entry for
HP-UX 10 is included (more may be needed).

c64d0cd5ce Use perfect hashing, instead of binary search, for keyword lookup.
We've been speculating for a long time that hash-based keyword lookup
ought to be faster than binary search, but up to now we hadn't found
a suitable tool for generating the hash function.  Joerg Sonnenberger
provided the inspiration, and sample code, to show us that rolling our
own generator wasn't a ridiculous idea.  Hence, do that.

The method used here requires a lookup table of approximately 4 bytes
per keyword, but that's less than what we saved in the predecessor commit
afb0d0712, so it's not a big problem.  The time savings is indeed
significant: preliminary testing suggests that the total time for raw
parsing (flex + bison phases) drops by ~20%.

Patch by me, but it owes its existence to Joerg Sonnenberger;
thanks also to John Naylor for review.

afb0d0712f Replace the data structure used for keyword lookup.
Previously, ScanKeywordLookup was passed an array of string pointers.
This had some performance deficiencies: the strings themselves might
be scattered all over the place depending on the compiler (and some
quick checking shows that at least with gcc-on-Linux, they indeed
weren't reliably close together).  That led to very cache-unfriendly
behavior as the binary search touched strings in many different pages.
Also, depending on the platform, the string pointers might need to
be adjusted at program start, so that they couldn't be simple constant
data.  And the ScanKeyword struct had been designed with an eye to
32-bit machines originally; on 64-bit it requires 16 bytes per
keyword, making it even more cache-unfriendly.

Redesign so that the keyword strings themselves are allocated
consecutively (as part of one big char-string constant), thereby
eliminating the touch-lots-of-unrelated-pages syndrome.  And get
rid of the ScanKeyword array in favor of three separate arrays:
uint16 offsets into the keyword array, uint16 token codes, and
uint8 keyword categories.  That reduces the overhead per keyword
to 5 bytes instead of 16 (even less in programs that only need
one of the token codes and categories); moreover, the binary search
only touches the offsets array, further reducing its cache footprint.
This also lets us put the token codes somewhere else than the
keyword strings are, which avoids some unpleasant build dependencies.

While we're at it, wrap the data used by ScanKeywordLookup into
a struct that can be treated as an opaque type by most callers.
That doesn't change things much right now, but it will make it
less painful to switch to a hash-based lookup method, as is being
discussed in the mailing list thread.

Most of the change here is associated with adding a generator
script that can build the new data structure from the same
list-of-PG_KEYWORD header representation we used before.
The PG_KEYWORD lists that plpgsql and ecpg used to embed in
their scanner .c files have to be moved into headers, and the
Makefiles have to be taught to invoke the generator script.
This work is also necessary if we're to consider hash-based lookup,
since the generator script is what would be responsible for
constructing a hash table.

Aside from saving a few kilobytes in each program that includes
the keyword table, this seems to speed up raw parsing (flex+bison)
by a few percent.  So it's worth doing even as it stands, though
we think we can gain even more with a follow-on patch to switch
to hash-based lookup.

d33faa285b Move the built-in conversions into the initial catalog data.
Instead of running a SQL script to create the standard conversion
functions and pg_conversion entries, put those entries into the
initial data in postgres.bki.

This shaves a few percent off the runtime of initdb, and also allows
accurate comments to be attached to the conversion functions; the
previous script labeled them with machine-generated comments that
were not quite right for multi-purpose conversion functions.
Also, we can get rid of the duplicative Makefile and MSVC perl
implementations of the generation code for that SQL script.

A functional change is that these pg_proc and pg_conversion entries
are now "pinned" by initdb.  Leaving them unpinned was perhaps a
good thing back while the conversions feature was under development,
but there seems no valid reason for it now.

Also, the conversion functions are now marked as immutable, where
before they were volatile by virtue of lacking any explicit
specification.  That seems like it was just an oversight.

To avoid using magic constants in pg_conversion.dat, extend
genbki.pl to allow encoding names to be converted, much as it
does for language, access method, etc names.

814c9019aa Use symbolic references for pg_language OIDs in the bootstrap data.
This patch teaches genbki.pl to replace pg_language names by OIDs
in much the same way as it already does for pg_am names etc, and
converts pg_proc.dat to use such symbolic references in the prolang
column.

Aside from getting rid of a few more magic numbers in the initial
catalog data, this means that Gen_fmgrtab.pl no longer needs to read
pg_language.dat, since it doesn't have to know the OID of the "internal"
language; now it's just looking for the string "internal".

No need for a catversion bump, since the contents of postgres.bki
don't actually change at all.

09568ec3d3 Create a separate oid range for oids assigned by genbki.pl.
The changes I made in 578b229718 assigned oids below
FirstBootstrapObjectId to objects in include/catalog/*.dat files that
did not have an oid assigned, starting at the max oid explicitly
assigned.  Tom criticized that for mainly two reasons:
1) It's not clear which values are manually and which explicitly
   assigned.
2) The space below FirstBootstrapObjectId gets pretty crowded, and
   some PostgreSQL forks have used oids >= 9000 for their own objects,
   to avoid conflicting.

Thus create a new range for objects not assigned explicit oids, but
assigned by genbki.pl. For now 1-9999 is for explicitly assigned oids,
FirstGenbkiObjectId (10000) to FirstBootstrapObjectId (1200) -1 is for
genbki.pl assigned oids, and < FirstNormalObjectId (16384) is for oids
assigned during bootstrap.  It's possible that we'll have to adjust
these boundaries, but there's some headroom for now.

Add a note suggesting that oids in forks should be assigned in the
9000-9999 range.

Catversion bump for obvious reasons.

29180e5d78 Eliminate parallel-make hazard in ecpg/preproc.
Re-making ecpglib's typename.o is dangerous because another make thread
could be doing that at the same time.  While we've not heard field
complaints traceable to this, it seems inevitable that it'd bite someone
eventually.  Instead, symlink typename.c into the preproc directory and
recompile it there.  That file is small enough that compiling it twice
isn't much of a penalty.  Furthermore, this way we get a .o file that's
made without shlib CFLAGS, which seems cleaner.

This requires adding more stuff to the module's -I list.  The MSVC
aspect of that is untested, but I'm sure the buildfarm will tell me
if I got it wrong.

Per a suggestion from Peter Eisentraut.  Although this is theoretically
a bug fix, the lack of field reports makes me feel we needn't back-patch.

431f1599a2 Add support for NO_INSTALLCHECK in MSVC scripts
When fetching a list of tests for a given extension in contrib/ or
src/test/modules/, NO_INSTALLCHECK now gets checked first.  If present,
an empty list of tests is returned to let the caller know that tests
for this module need to be bypassed.

This actually fixes a set of issues with MSVC with modules using
REGRESS_OPTS, as an incorrect parsing caused the launched command
to eat the first test listed.  The actual effect on the tree is that
several modules listed a single test, so regressions have been running
with no actual tests.  pg_stat_statements, test_rls_hooks and commit_ts
were impacted by that.  Some other modules like test_decoding (or
snapshot_too_old) don't use yet PGXS rules, but their makefiles will
soon be refactored with an upcoming patch.

The extension depended on old types which are about to be removed. As
the code additionally was pretty crufty and didn't provide much in the
way of functionality, removing the extension seems to be the best way
forward.  It's fairly trivial to write functionality in plpgsql that
more than covers what timetravel did.
