* Non text modes for pg_dumpall, correspondingly change pg_restoreAndrew Dunstan2025-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_dumpall acquires a new -F/--format option, with the same meanings as pg_dump. The default is p, meaning plain text. For any other value, a directory is created containing two files, globals.data and map.dat. The first contains SQL for restoring the global data, and the second contains a map from oids to database names. It will also contain a subdirectory called databases, inside which it will create archives in the specified format, named using the database oids. In these casess the -f argument is required. If pg_restore encounters a directory containing globals.dat, and no toc.dat, it restores the global settings and then restores each database. pg_restore acquires two new options: -g/--globals-only which suppresses restoration of any databases, and --exclude-database which inhibits restoration of particualr database(s) in the same way the same option works in pg_dumpall.

* Rename static function to avoid conflicting namesDaniel Gustafsson2024-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | Commit a4fd3aa719e moved setup_cancel_handler out of psql and exporeted it as a global function. While pg_dump isn't using the header it's exported in, having a conflicting name still risks causing confusion when grepping the code for callsites, so rename the static function in pg_dump to avoid this.

* Add trailing commas to enum definitionsPeter Eisentraut2023-10-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since C99, there can be a trailing comma after the last value in an enum definition. A lot of new code has been introducing this style on the fly. Some new patches are now taking an inconsistent approach to this. Some add the last comma on the fly if they add a new last value, some are trying to preserve the existing style in each place, some are even dropping the last comma if there was one. We could nudge this all in a consistent direction if we just add the trailing commas everywhere once. I omitted a few places where there was a fixed "last" value that will always stay last. I also skipped the header files of libpq and ecpg, in case people want to use those with older compilers. There were also a small number of cases where the enum type wasn't used anywhere (but the enum values were), which ended up confusing pgindent a bit, so I left those alone.

* Improve frontend error logging style.Tom Lane2022-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Get rid of the separate "FATAL" log level, as it was applied so inconsistently as to be meaningless. This mostly involves s/pg_log_fatal/pg_log_error/g. Create a macro pg_fatal() to handle the common use-case of pg_log_error() immediately followed by exit(1). Various modules had already invented either this or equivalent macros; standardize on pg_fatal() and apply it where possible. Invent the ability to add "detail" and "hint" messages to a frontend message, much as we have long had in the backend. Except where rewording was needed to convert existing coding to detail/hint style, I have (mostly) resisted the temptation to change existing message wording. Patch by me.

* In libpq for Windows, call WSAStartup once and WSACleanup not at all.Tom Lane2020-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Windows documentation insists that every WSAStartup call should have a matching WSACleanup call. However, if that ever had actual relevance, it wasn't in this century. Every remotely-modern Windows kernel is capable of cleaning up when a process exits without doing that, and must be so to avoid resource leaks in case of a process crash. Moreover, Postgres backends have done WSAStartup without WSACleanup since commit 4cdf51e64 in 2004, and we've never seen any indication of a problem with that. libpq's habit of doing WSAStartup during connection start and WSACleanup during shutdown is also rather inefficient, since a series of non-overlapping connection requests leads to repeated, quite expensive DLL unload/reload cycles. We document a workaround for that (having the application call WSAStartup for itself), but that's just a kluge. It's also worth noting that it's far from uncommon for applications to exit without doing PQfinish, and we've not heard reports of trouble from that either. However, the real reason for acting on this is that recent experiments by Alexander Lakhin suggest that calling WSACleanup during PQfinish might be triggering the symptom we occasionally see that a process using libpq fails to emit expected stdio output. Therefore, let's change libpq so that it calls WSAStartup only once per process, during the first connection attempt, and never calls WSACleanup at all. While at it, get rid of the only other WSACleanup call in our code tree, in pg_dump/parallel.c; that presumably is equally useless. If this proves to suppress the fairly-common ecpg test failures we see on Windows, I'll back-patch, but for now let's just do it in HEAD and see what happens.

* Remove pointless error-code checking in pg_dump/parallel.c.Tom Lane2020-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit fe27009cb tried to make parallel.c's Windows implementation of piperead() translate Windows socket errors to Unix, but that didn't actually work because TranslateSocketError() is backend-internal code (and not even public there). But on closer inspection, the sole caller of this function doesn't actually care whether the result is zero or negative, much less inspect the errno. So the whole exercise is totally useless, and has been since this code was introduced. Rip it out and just call recv() directly. Per buildfarm.

* Recognize network-failure errnos as indicating hard connection loss.Tom Lane2020-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, only ECONNRESET (and EPIPE, in most but not quite all places) received special treatment in our error handling logic. This patch changes things so that related error codes such as ECONNABORTED are also recognized as indicating that the connection's dead and unlikely to come back. We continue to think, however, that only ECONNRESET and EPIPE should be reported as probable server crashes; the other cases indicate network connectivity problems but prove little about the server's state. Thus, there's no change in the error message texts that are output for such cases. The key practical effect is that errcode_for_socket_access() will report ERRCODE_CONNECTION_FAILURE rather than ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR for a network failure. It's expected that this will fix buildfarm member lorikeet's failures since commit 32a9c0bdf, as that seems to be due to not treating ECONNABORTED equivalently to ECONNRESET. The set of errnos treated this way now includes ECONNABORTED, EHOSTDOWN, EHOSTUNREACH, ENETDOWN, ENETRESET, and ENETUNREACH. Several of these were second-class citizens in terms of their handling in places like get_errno_symbol(), so upgrade the infrastructure where necessary. As committed, this patch assumes that all these symbols are defined everywhere. POSIX specifies all of them except EHOSTDOWN, but that seems to exist on all platforms of interest; we'll see what the buildfarm says about that. Probably this should be back-patched, but let's see what the buildfarm thinks of it first. Fujii Masao and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2621622.1602184554@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Fix parallel pg_dump/pg_restore for failure to create worker processes.Tom Lane2020-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we failed to fork a worker process, or create a communication pipe for one, WaitForTerminatingWorkers would suffer an assertion failure if assert-enabled, otherwise crash or go into an infinite loop. This was a consequence of not accounting for the startup condition where we've not yet forked all the workers. The original bug was that ParallelBackupStart would set workerStatus to WRKR_IDLE before it had successfully forked a worker. I made things worse in commit b7b8cc0cf by not understanding the undocumented fact that the WRKR_TERMINATED state was also meant to represent the case where a worker hadn't been started yet: I changed enum T_WorkerStatus so that *all* the worker slots were initially in WRKR_IDLE state. But this wasn't any more broken in practice, since even one slot in the wrong state would keep WaitForTerminatingWorkers from terminating. In v10 and later, introduce an explicit T_WorkerStatus value for worker-not-started, in hopes of preventing future oversights of the same ilk. Before that, just document that WRKR_TERMINATED is supposed to cover that case (partly because it wasn't actively broken, and partly because the enum is exposed outside parallel.c in those branches, so there's microscopically more risk involved in changing it). In all branches, introduce a WORKER_IS_RUNNING status test macro to hide which T_WorkerStatus values mean that, and be more careful not to access ParallelSlot fields till we're sure they're valid. Per report from Vignesh C, though this is my patch not his. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CALDaNm1Luv-E3sarR+-unz-BjchquHHyfP+YC+2FS2pt_J+wxg@mail.gmail.com
* Fix pg_dump's sigTermHandler() to use _exit() not exit().Tom Lane2020-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sigTermHandler() tried to be careful to invoke only operations that are safe to do in a signal handler. But for some reason we forgot that exit(3) is not among those, because it calls atexit handlers that might do various random things. (pg_dump itself installs no atexit handlers, but e.g. OpenSSL does.) That led to crashes or lockups when attempting to terminate a parallel dump or restore via a signal. Fix by calling _exit() instead. Per bug #16199 from Raúl Marín. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16199-cb2f121146a96f9b@postgresql.org

* Unified logging system for command-line programsPeter Eisentraut2019-04-01

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.

* Ensure schema qualification in pg_restore DISABLE/ENABLE TRIGGER commands.Tom Lane2018-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, this code blindly followed the common coding pattern of passing PQserverVersion(AH->connection) as the server-version parameter of fmtQualifiedId. That works as long as we have a connection; but in pg_restore with text output, we don't. Instead we got a zero from PQserverVersion, which fmtQualifiedId interpreted as "server is too old to have schemas", and so the name went unqualified. That still accidentally managed to work in many cases, which is probably why this ancient bug went undetected for so long. It only became obvious in the wake of the changes to force dump/restore to execute with restricted search_path. In HEAD/v11, let's deal with this by ripping out fmtQualifiedId's server- version behavioral dependency, and just making it schema-qualify all the time. We no longer support pg_dump from servers old enough to need the ability to omit schema name, let alone restoring to them. (Also, the few callers outside pg_dump already didn't work with pre-schema servers.) In older branches, that's not an acceptable solution, so instead just tweak the DISABLE/ENABLE TRIGGER logic to ensure it will schema-qualify its output regardless of server version.

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Make struct ParallelSlot private within pg_dump/parallel.c.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only field of this struct that other files have any need to touch is the pointer to the TocEntry a worker is working on. (Well, pg_backup_archiver.c is actually looking at workerStatus too, but that can be finessed by specifying that the TocEntry pointer is NULL for a non-busy worker.) Hence, move out the TocEntry pointers to a separate array within struct ParallelState, and then we can make struct ParallelSlot private.

* Rationalize parallel dump/restore's handling of worker cmd/status messages.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Redesign parallel dump/restore's wait-for-workers logic.Tom Lane2016-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 passing, I got rid of the ParallelArgs struct, which was a net negative in terms of notational verboseness, and didn't seem to be providing any noticeable amount of abstraction either.

| | | | | | | | | Adopt the same solution as in commit aa90e148ca70a235, but this time let's put the ugliness inside the write_stderr() macro, instead of expecting each call site to deal with it. Back-port that decision into psql/common.c where I got the macro from in the first place. Per gripe from Peter Eisentraut.
* Redesign handling of SIGTERM/control-C in parallel pg_dump/pg_restore.Tom Lane2016-06-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Formerly, Unix builds of pg_dump/pg_restore would trap SIGINT and similar signals and set a flag that was tested in various data-transfer loops. This was prone to errors of omission (cf commit 3c8aa6654); and even if the client-side response was prompt, we did nothing that would cause long-running SQL commands (e.g. CREATE INDEX) to terminate early. Also, the master process would effectively do nothing at all upon receipt of SIGINT; the only reason it seemed to work was that in typical scenarios the signal would also be delivered to the child processes. We should support termination when a signal is delivered only to the master process, though. Windows builds had no console interrupt handler, so they would just fall over immediately at control-C, again leaving long-running SQL commands to finish unmolested. To fix, remove the flag-checking approach altogether. Instead, allow the Unix signal handler to send a cancel request directly and then exit(1). In the master process, also have it forward the signal to the children. On Windows, add a console interrupt handler that behaves approximately the same. The main difference is that a single execution of the Windows handler can send all the cancel requests since all the info is available in one process, whereas on Unix each process sends a cancel only for its own database connection. In passing, fix an old problem that DisconnectDatabase tends to send a cancel request before exiting a parallel worker, even if nothing went wrong. This is at least a waste of cycles, and could lead to unexpected log messages, or maybe even data loss if it happened in pg_restore (though in the current code the problem seems to affect only pg_dump). The cause was that after a COPY step, pg_dump was leaving libpq in PGASYNC_BUSY state, causing PQtransactionStatus() to report PQTRANS_ACTIVE. That's normally harmless because the next PQexec() will silently clear the PGASYNC_BUSY state; but in a parallel worker we might exit without any additional SQL commands after a COPY step. So add an extra PQgetResult() call after a COPY to allow libpq to return to PGASYNC_IDLE state. This is a bug fix, IMO, so back-patch to 9.3 where parallel dump/restore were introduced.

* Clean up some minor inefficiencies in parallel dump/restore.Tom Lane2016-06-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Parallel dump did a totally pointless query to find out the name of each table to be dumped, which it already knows. Parallel restore runs issued lots of redundant SET commands because _doSetFixedOutputState() was invoked once per TOC item rather than just once at connection start. While the extra queries are insignificant if you're dumping or restoring large tables, it still seems worth getting rid of them. Also, give the responsibility for selecting the right client_encoding for a parallel dump worker to setup_connection() where it naturally belongs, instead of having ad-hoc code for that in CloneArchive(). And fix some minor bugs like use of strdup() where pg_strdup() would be safer. Back-patch to 9.3, mostly to keep the branches in sync in an area that we're still finding bugs in.

* Remove pg_dump/parallel.c's useless "aborting" flag.Tom Lane2016-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was effectively dead code, since the places that tested it could not be reached after we entered the on-exit-cleanup routine that would set it. It seems to have been a leftover from a design in which error abort would try to send fresh commands to the workers --- a design which could never have worked reliably, of course. Since the flag is not cross-platform, it complicates reasoning about the code's behavior, which we could do without. Although this is effectively just cosmetic, back-patch anyway, because there are some actual bugs in the vicinity of this behavior. Discussion: <15583.1464462418@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Lots of comment-fixing, and minor cosmetic cleanup, in pg_dump/parallel.c.Tom Lane2016-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commentary in this file was in extremely sad shape. The author(s) had clearly never heard of the project convention that a function header comment should provide an API spec of some sort for that function. Much of it was flat out wrong, too --- maybe it was accurate when written, but if so it had not been updated to track subsequent code revisions. Rewrite and rearrange to try to bring it up to speed, and annotate some of the places where more work is needed. (I've refrained from actually fixing anything of substance ... yet.) Also, rename a couple of functions for more clarity as to what they do, do some very minor code rearrangement, remove some pointless Asserts, fix an incorrect Assert in readMessageFromPipe, and add a missing socket close in one error exit from pgpipe(). The last would be a bug if we tried to continue after pgpipe() failure, but since we don't, it's just cosmetic at present. Although this is only cosmetic, back-patch to 9.3 where parallel.c was added. It's sufficiently invasive that it'll pose a hazard for future back-patching if we don't.

* Clean up thread management in parallel pg_dump for Windows.Tom Lane2016-05-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we start the worker threads with _beginthreadex(), we should use _endthreadex() to terminate them. We got this right in the normal-exit code path, but not so much during an error exit from a worker. In addition, be sure to apply CloseHandle to the thread handle after each thread exits. It's not clear that these oversights cause any user-visible problems, since the pg_dump run is about to terminate anyway. Still, it's clearly better to follow Microsoft's API specifications than ignore them. Also a few cosmetic cleanups in WaitForTerminatingWorkers(), including being a bit less random about where to cast between uintptr_t and HANDLE, and being sure to clear the worker identity field for each dead worker (not that false matches should be possible later, but let's be careful). Original observation and patch by Armin Schöffmann, cosmetic improvements by Michael Paquier and me. (Armin's patch also included closing sockets in ShutdownWorkersHard(), but that's been dealt with already in commit df8d2d8c4.) Back-patch to 9.3 where parallel pg_dump was introduced.

* In Windows pg_dump, ensure idle workers will shut down during error exit.Tom Lane2016-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Windows coding of ShutdownWorkersHard() thought that setting termEvent was sufficient to make workers exit after an error. But that only helps if a worker is busy and passes through checkAborting(). An idle worker will just sit, resulting in pg_dump failing to exit until the user gives up and hits control-C. We should close the write end of the command pipe so that idle workers will see socket EOF and exit, as the Unix coding was already doing. Back-patch to 9.3 where parallel pg_dump was introduced.

* Fix broken error handling in parallel pg_dump/pg_restore.Tom Lane2016-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the original design for parallel dump, worker processes reported errors by sending them up to the master process, which would print the messages. This is unworkably fragile for a couple of reasons: it risks deadlock if a worker sends an error at an unexpected time, and if the master has already died for some reason, the user will never get to see the error at all. Revert that idea and go back to just always printing messages to stderr. This approach means that if all the workers fail for similar reasons (eg, bad password or server shutdown), the user will see N copies of that message, not only one as before. While that's slightly annoying, it's certainly better than not seeing any message; not to mention that we shouldn't assume that only the first failure is interesting. An additional problem in the same area was that the master failed to disable SIGPIPE (at least until much too late), which meant that sending a command to an already-dead worker would cause the master to crash silently. That was bad enough in itself but was made worse by the total reliance on the master to print errors: even if the worker had reported an error, you would probably not see it, depending on timing. Instead disable SIGPIPE right after we've forked the workers, before attempting to send them anything. Additionally, the master relies on seeing socket EOF to realize that a worker has exited prematurely --- but on Windows, there would be no EOF since the socket is attached to the process that includes both the master and worker threads, so it remains open. Make archive_close_connection() close the worker end of the sockets so that this acts more like the Unix case. It's not perfect, because if a worker thread exits without going through exit_nicely() the closures won't happen; but that's not really supposed to happen. This has been wrong all along, so back-patch to 9.3 where parallel dump was introduced. Report: <2458.1450894615@sss.pgh.pa.us>
* Create src/fe_utils/, and move stuff into there from pg_dump's dumputils.Tom Lane2016-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per discussion, we want to create a static library and put the stuff into it that until now has been shared across src/bin/ directories by ad-hoc methods like symlinking a source file. This commit creates the library and populates it with a couple of files that contain the widely-useful portions of pg_dump's dumputils.c file. dumputils.c survives, because it has some stuff that didn't seem appropriate for fe_utils, but it's significantly smaller and is no longer referenced from any other directory. Follow-on patches will move more stuff into fe_utils. The Mkvcbuild.pm hacking here is just a best guess; we'll see how the buildfarm likes it.

* Access pg_dump's options structs through Archive struct, not directly.Tom Lane2016-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than passing around DumpOptions and RestoreOptions as separate arguments, add fields to struct Archive to carry pointers to these objects, and access them through those fields when needed. There already was a RestoreOptions pointer in Archive, though for no obvious reason it was part of the "private" struct rather than out where pg_dump.c could see it. Doing this allows reversion of quite a lot of parameter-addition changes made in commit 0eea8047bf, which is a good thing IMO because this will reduce the code delta between 9.4 and 9.5, probably easing a few future back-patch efforts. Moreover, the previous commit only added a DumpOptions argument to functions that had to have it at the time, which means we could anticipate still more code churn (and more back-patch hazard) as the requirement spread further. I'd hit exactly that problem in my upcoming patch to fix extension membership marking, which is what motivated me to do this.
