\nVersion 11 contains a number of changes that may affect compatibility with previous releases. Observe the following incompatibilities:
\nMake pg_dump dump the properties of a database, not just its contents (Haribabu Kommi)
\nPreviously, attributes of the database itself, such as database-level GRANT/REVOKE permissions and ALTER DATABASE SET variable settings, were only dumped by pg_dumpall. Now pg_dump --create and pg_restore --create will restore these database properties in addition to the objects within the database. pg_dumpall -g now only dumps role- and tablespace-related attributes. pg_dumpall's complete output (without -g) is unchanged.
pg_dump and pg_restore, without --create, no longer dump/restore database-level comments and security labels; those are now treated as properties of the database.
pg_dumpall's output script will now always create databases with their original locale and encoding, and hence will fail if the locale or encoding name is unknown to the destination system. Previously, CREATE DATABASE would be emitted without these specifications if the database locale and encoding matched the old cluster's defaults.
pg_dumpall --clean now restores the original locale and encoding settings of the postgres and template1 databases, as well as those of user-created databases.
Consider syntactic form when disambiguating function versus column references (Tom Lane)
\nWhen x is a table name or composite column, PostgreSQL has traditionally considered the syntactic forms f(x)x.f
Fully enforce uniqueness of table and domain constraint names (Tom Lane)
\nPostgreSQL expects the names of a table's constraints to be distinct, and likewise for the names of a domain's constraints. However, there was not rigid enforcement of this, and previously there were corner cases where duplicate names could be created.

Prevent to_number() from consuming characters when the template separator does not match (Oliver Ford)
Specifically, SELECT to_number('1234', '9,999') used to return 134. It will now return 1234. L and TH now only consume characters that are not digits, positive/negative signs, decimal points, or commas.

\nAn “index” on a partitioned table is not a physical index across the whole partitioned table, but rather a template for automatically creating similar indexes on each partition of the table.
\nIf the partition key is part of the index's column set, a partitioned index may be declared UNIQUE. It will represent a valid uniqueness constraint across the whole partitioned table, even though each physical index only enforces uniqueness within its own partition.
The new command ALTER INDEX ATTACH PARTITION causes an existing index on a partition to be associated with a matching index template for its partitioned table. This provides flexibility in setting up a new partitioned index for an existing partitioned table.

Allow the server to specify more complex LDAP specifications in search+bind mode (Thomas Munro)
\nSpecifically, ldapsearchfilter allows pattern matching using combinations of LDAP attributes.

Allow access to file system functions to be controlled by GRANT/REVOKE permissions, rather than superuser checks (Stephen Frost)
Specifically, these functions were modified: pg_ls_dir(), pg_read_file(), pg_read_binary_file(), pg_stat_file().

\nSpecifically, allow RANGE mode to use PRECEDING and FOLLOWING to select rows having grouping values within plus or minus the specified offset. Add GROUPS mode to include plus or minus the number of peer groups. Frame exclusion syntax was also added.
Add SHA-2 family of hash functions (Peter Eisentraut)
\nSpecifically, sha224(), sha256(), sha384(), sha512() were added.

Add functions json(b)_to_tsvector() to create a text search query for matching JSON/JSONB values (Dmitry Dolgov)
Add SQL-level procedures, which can start and commit their own transactions (Peter Eisentraut)
\nThey are created with the new CREATE PROCEDURE command and invoked via CALL.
The new ALTER/DROP ROUTINE commands allow altering/dropping of all routine-like objects, including procedures, functions, and aggregates.
Also, writing FUNCTION is now preferred over writing PROCEDURE in CREATE OPERATOR and CREATE TRIGGER, because the referenced object must be a function not a procedure. However, the old syntax is still accepted for compatibility.
Add transaction control to PL/pgSQL, PL/Perl, PL/Python, PL/Tcl, and SPI server-side languages (Peter Eisentraut)
\nTransaction control is only available within top-transaction-level procedures and nested DO and CALL blocks that only contain other DO and CALL blocks.

Add PGXS support for installing include files (Andrew Gierth)
\nThis supports creating extension modules that depend on other modules. Formerly there was no easy way for the dependent module to find the referenced one's include files. Several existing contrib modules that define data types have been adjusted to install relevant files. Also, PL/Perl and PL/Python now install their include files, to support creation of transform modules for those languages.
Install errcodes.txt to allow extensions to access the list of error codes known to PostgreSQL (Thomas Munro)
Convert documentation to DocBook XML (Peter Eisentraut, Alexander Lakhin, Jürgen Purtz)
\nThe file names still use an sgml extension for compatibility with back branches.
Use stdbool.h to define type bool on platforms where it's suitable, which is most (Peter Eisentraut)
This eliminates a coding hazard for extension modules that need to include stdbool.h.

Update to use perltidy version 20170521 (Tom Lane, Peter Eisentraut)
Allow extension pg_prewarm to restore the previous shared buffer contents on startup (Mithun Cy, Robert Haas)
This is accomplished by having pg_prewarm store the shared buffers' relation and block number data to disk occasionally during server operation, and at shutdown.
Add pg_trgm function strict_word_similarity() to compute the similarity of whole words (Alexander Korotkov)
The function word_similarity() already existed for this purpose, but it was designed to find similar parts of words, while strict_word_similarity() computes the similarity to whole words.
Allow btree_gin to index bool, bpchar, name and uuid data types (Matheus Oliveira)
