psql, pg_dump, and pg_amcheck share code to process object name
patterns like 'foo*.bar*' to match all tables with names starting in
'bar' that are in schemas starting with 'foo'. Before v14, any number
of extra name parts were silently ignored, so a command line '\d
foo.bar.baz.bletch.quux' was interpreted as '\d bletch.quux'. In v14,
as a result of commit 2c8726c4b0a496608919d1f78a5abc8c9b6e0868, we
instead treated this as a request for table quux in a schema named
'foo.bar.baz.bletch'. That caused problems for people like Justin
Pryzby who were accustomed to copying strings of the form
db.schema.table from messages generated by PostgreSQL itself and using
them as arguments to \d.
Accordingly, revise things so that if an object name pattern contains
more parts than we're expecting, we throw an error, unless there's
exactly one extra part and it matches the current database name.
That way, thisdb.myschema.mytable is accepted as meaning just
myschema.mytable, but otherdb.myschema.mytable is an error, and so
is some.random.garbage.myschema.mytable.
Mark Dilger, per report from Justin Pryzby and discussion among
various people.

Historically we've been lax about this, but seeing that we're not
lax in C files, there doesn't seem to be a good reason to be so
in the documentation. Remove the existing occurrences (mostly
though not entirely in copied-n-pasted psql output), and modify
.gitattributes so that "git diff --check" will warn about future
cases.
While at it, add *.pm to the set of extensions .gitattributes
knows about, and remove some obsolete entries for files that
we don't have in the tree anymore.
Per followup discussion of commit 5a892c9b1.

Similarly to what was done in 04539e73f, we standardized on SQL being
pronounced "es-que-ell" rather than "sequel" in our documentation.
Two inconsistencies have crept in during the v15 cycle. The others
existed before but were missed in 04539e73f due to none of the searches
accounting for "SQL" being wrapped in tags.
As with 04539e73f, we don't touch code comments here in order to not
create unnecessary back-patching pain.

It was missing lock levels FOR KEY SHARE and FOR NO KEY EXCLUSIVE; but
also SELECT FOR UPDATE is not a command separate from SELECT, as the
original text implied. It is clearer to state that FOR <lock strength>

It's more accurate to say that the query identifier is not shown when

This tries to bring a bit more consistency to the use of the <productname>
tag in the documents. This fixes a couple of mistakes with our own
product. We definitely should be consistently calling that PostgreSQL
when we're referring to the modern-day version of the software.
This also tidies up a couple of inconsistencies with the case of other
product names, namely Emacs and Python. We also get rid of some incorrect
usages of <productname> and replace them with <literal>.
Many of these mistakes exist in the back branches, but they don't quite
seem critical enough to warrant fixing them in prior versions at this
stage.

Since babbbb5 and the introduction of LZ4 in pg_receivewal, the
compression of the WAL archived is controlled by two options:
- --compression-method with "gzip", "none" or "lz4" as possible value.
- --compress=N to specify a compression level. This includes a
backward-incompatible change where a value of 0 leads to a failure
instead of no compression enforced.
This commit takes advantage of a4b5754 and 3603f7c to rework the
compression options of pg_receivewal, as of:
- The removal of --compression-method.
- The extenction of --compress to use the same grammar as pg_basebackup,
with a METHOD:DETAIL format, where a METHOD is "gzip", "none" or "lz4"
and a DETAIL is a comma-separated list of options, the only keyword
supported is now "level" to control the compression level. If only an
integer is specified as value of this option, "none" is implied on 0
and "gzip" is implied otherwise. This brings back --compress to be
backward-compatible with ~14, while still supporting LZ4.
This has also the advantage of centralizing the set of checks used by
pg_receivewal to validate its compression options.

Google seems to like to return textsearch.html for queries about
GIN and GiST indexes, even though it's not a primary reference

not a very apposite title for this material anyway, rename the
section in hopes of stopping that.
Also provide explicit links to the GIN and GiST chapters, to help

Previously, the output of EXPLAIN (BUFFERS) option showed only the I/O
timing spent reading and writing shared and local buffers. This commit
adds on top of that the I/O timing for temporary buffers in the output
of EXPLAIN (for spilled external sorts, hashes, materialization. etc).
This can be helpful for users in cases where the I/O related to
temporary buffers is the bottleneck.
Like its cousin, this information is available only when track_io_timing
is enabled. Playing the patch, this is showing an extra overhead of up
to 1% even when using gettimeofday() as implementation for interval
timings, which is slightly within the usual range noise still that's
measurable.

Plain \dconfig is basically equivalent to SHOW except that you can
give it a pattern with wildcards, either to match multiple GUCs or
because you don't exactly remember the name you want.
\dconfig+ adds type, context, and access-privilege information,
mainly because every other kind of object privilege has a psql command
to show it, so GUC privileges should too. (A form of this command was
in some versions of the patch series leading up to commit a0ffa885e.
We pulled it out then because of doubts that the design and code were
up to snuff, but I think subsequent work has resolved that.)
In passing, fix incorrect completion of GUC names in GRANT/REVOKE
ON PARAMETER: a0ffa885e neglected to use the VERBATIM form of
COMPLETE_WITH_QUERY, so it misbehaved for custom (qualified) GUC
names.

Add support for unlogged sequences. Unlike for unlogged tables, this
is not a performance feature. It allows sequences associated with
unlogged tables to be excluded from replication.
A new subcommand ALTER SEQUENCE ... SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED is added.
An identity/serial sequence now automatically gets and follows the
persistence level (logged/unlogged) of its owning table. (The
sequences owned by temporary tables were already temporary through the
separate mechanism in RangeVarAdjustRelationPersistence().) But you
can still change the persistence of an owned sequence separately.
Also, pg_dump and pg_upgrade preserve the persistence of existing
sequences.

Introduce a new GUC recovery_prefetch. When enabled, look ahead in the
WAL and try to initiate asynchronous reading of referenced data blocks
that are not yet cached in our buffer pool. For now, this is done with
posix_fadvise(), which has several caveats. Since not all OSes have
that system call, "try" is provided so that it can be enabled where
available. Better mechanisms for asynchronous I/O are possible in later
work.
Set to "try" for now for test coverage. Default setting to be finalized
before release.
The GUC wal_decode_buffer_size limits the distance we can look ahead in
bytes of decoded data.
The existing GUC maintenance_io_concurrency is used to limit the number
of concurrent I/Os allowed, based on pessimistic heuristics used to
infer that I/Os have begun and completed. We'll also not look more than
maintenance_io_concurrency * 4 block references ahead.

Previously the statistics collector received statistics updates via UDP and
shared statistics data by writing them out to temporary files regularly. These
files can reach tens of megabytes and are written out up to twice a
second. This has repeatedly prevented us from adding additional useful
statistics.
Now statistics are stored in shared memory. Statistics for variable-numbered
objects are stored in a dshash hashtable (backed by dynamic shared
memory). Fixed-numbered stats are stored in plain shared memory.
The header for pgstat.c contains an overview of the architecture.
The stats collector is not needed anymore, remove it.
By utilizing the transactional statistics drop infrastructure introduced in a
prior commit statistics entries cannot "leak" anymore. Previously leaked
statistics were dropped by pgstat_vacuum_stat(), called from [auto-]vacuum. On
systems with many small relations pgstat_vacuum_stat() could be quite
expensive.
Now that replicas drop statistics entries for dropped objects, it is not
necessary anymore to reset stats when starting from a cleanly shut down
replica.
Subsequent commits will perform some further code cleanup, adapt docs and add
tests.

The column 'subskiplsn' uses TYPALIGN_DOUBLE (which has 4 bytes alignment
on AIX) for storage. But the C Struct (Form_pg_subscription) has 8-byte
alignment for this field, so retrieving it from storage causes an
unaligned read.
To fix this, we rearranged the 'subskiplsn' column in the catalog so that
it naturally comes at an 8-byte boundary.
We have fixed a similar problem in commit f3b421da5f. This patch adds a
test to avoid a similar mistake in the future.

This option is useful to do a rewind with the server configuration file
(aka postgresql.conf) located outside the data directory, which is
something that some Linux distributions and some HA tools like to rely
on. As a result, this can simplify the logic around a rewind by
avoiding the copy of such files before running pg_rewind.
This option affects pg_rewind when it internally starts the target
cluster with some "postgres" commands, adding -c config_file=FILE to the
command strings generated, when:
- retrieving a restore_command using a "postgres -C" command for
-c/--restore-target-wal.
- forcing crash recovery once to get the cluster into a clean shutdown
state.

Exclusive-mode backups have been deprecated since 9.6 (when
non-exclusive backups were introduced) due to the issues
they can cause should the system crash while one is running and
generally because non-exclusive provides a much better interface.
Further, exclusive backup mode wasn't really being tested (nor was most
of the related code- like being able to log in just to stop an exclusive
backup and the bits of the state machine related to that) and having to
possibly deal with an exclusive backup and the backup_label file
existing during pg_basebackup, pg_rewind, etc, added other complexities
that we are better off without.
This patch removes the exclusive backup mode, the various special cases
for dealing with it, and greatly simplifies the online backup code and
documentation.

This patch allows "PGC_SUSET" parameters to be set by non-superusers
if they have been explicitly granted the privilege to do so.
The privilege to perform ALTER SYSTEM SET/RESET on a specific parameter
can also be granted.
Such privileges are cluster-wide, not per database. They are tracked
in a new shared catalog, pg_parameter_acl.
Granting and revoking these new privileges works as one would expect.
One caveat is that PGC_USERSET GUCs are unaffected by the SET privilege
--- one could wish that those were handled by a revocable grant to
PUBLIC, but they are not, because we couldn't make it robust enough
for GUCs defined by extensions.

Commit 4a39f87acd changed the aggregated log format. Problem is, now
the explanatory paragraph for the log line in the document is too
long. Also the log format included more optional columns, and it's
harder to parse the log lines. This commit tries to solve the
problems.
- There's no optional log columns anymore. If a column is not
meaningful with provided pgbench option, it will be presented as 0.
- Reorder the log columns so that it's easier to parse them.
- Adjust explanatory paragraph for the log line in the doc.

Previously, psql printed only the last result if a command string
returned multiple result sets. Now it prints all of them. The
previous behavior can be obtained by setting the psql variable
SHOW_ALL_RESULTS to off.
This is a significantly enhanced version of
3a5130672296ed4e682403a77a9a3ad3d21cef75 (that was later reverted).
There is also much more test coverage for various psql features now.
