[HACKERS] renaming pg_resetxlog to pg_resetwal has broken pg_upgrade.

Upgrading from 9.6 to dev, I now get:

$ rm bisectdata -r ; bisect/bin/pg_ctl initdb -D bisectdata; bisect/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/local/pgsql9_6/bin/ -B bisect/bin/ -d 96 -D bisectdata/


check for "/usr/local/pgsql9_6/bin/pg_resetwal" failed: No such file or directory

This looks somewhat complicated to fix.  Should check_bin_dir test the old cluster version, and make a deterministic check based on that?  Or just check for either spelling, and stash the successful result somewhere?


Culprit is here:

commit 85c11324cabaddcfaf3347df78555b30d27c5b5a
Author: Robert Haas <rhaas@postgresql.org>

    Rename user-facing tools with "xlog" in the name to say "wal".

    This means pg_receivexlog because pg_receivewal, pg_resetxlog
    becomes pg_resetwal, and pg_xlogdump becomes pg_waldump.



Cheers,

Jeff

The fix does not seem that complicated to me. get_bin_version() just
needs pg_ctl to be present, so we could move that in check_bin_dir()
after looking if pg_ctl is in a valid state, and reuse the version of
bin_version to see if the binary version is post-10 or not. Then the
decision making just depends on this value. Please see the patch
attached, this is passing 9.6->10 and check-world.

I have added as well an open item on the wiki.

That fixes it for me.  

I thought people would object to checking the version number in two different places to make the same fundamental decision, and would want that refactored somehow.  But if you are OK with it, then I am.

The binary versions are checked only once, which does not with change
HEAD. With this patch it happens just earlier, which makes the most
sense now that we have a condition depending on the version of what is
installed.

Thanks, Michael!  Committed.

I actually thought about this problem when I committed the original
patch but decided it ought to be OK because I didn't see why we'd be
running pg_resetxlog on the old cluster.  I didn't think about the
fact that we might be running it with the -n option.  Oops.

Thanks Jeff for the report.
