database, including system catalogs (but not the shared catalogs,
since they don't really belong to his database). This is per recent
mailing list discussion. Clean up some other code that also checks
for database ownerness by introducing a test function is_dbadmin().
inet(text), cidr(text): convert a text value into inet/cidr
set_masklen(inet): set masklen on the inet value
Patch also contains regression checks for these functions.

datatypes, not only strings. parse_hook is useless for bool, I suppose,
but it seems possibly useful for int and double to apply variable-specific
constraints that are more complex than simple range limits. assign_hook
is definitely useful for all datatypes --- we need it right now for bool
to support date cache reset when changing Australian timezone rule setting.
Also, clean up some residual problems with the reset all/show all patch,
including memory leaks and mistaken reset of PostPortNumber. It seems
best that RESET ALL not touch variables that don't have SUSET or
USERSET context.
It "make"s and "make check"s clean against current cvs tip.
There are now both Text and Name variants, and the regression test support
is rolled into the patch. Note that to be complete wrt Name based variants,
there are now 12 user visible versions of has_table_privilege:
has_table_privilege(Text usename, Text relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Text usename, Name relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Name usename, Text relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Name usename, Name relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Text relname, Text priv_type) /* assumes current_user */
has_table_privilege(Name relname, Text priv_type) /* assumes current_user */
has_table_privilege(Text usename, Oid reloid, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Name usename, Oid reloid, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Oid reloid, Text priv_type) /* assumes current_user */
has_table_privilege(Oid usesysid, Text relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Oid usesysid, Name relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Oid usesysid, Oid reloid, Text priv_type)
For the Text based inputs, a new internal function, get_Name is used
(shamelessly copied from get_seq_name in sequence.c) to downcase if not
quoted, or remove quotes if quoted, and truncate. I also added a few test
cases for the downcasing, quote removal, and Name based variants to the
regression test.

pg_database now has unique indexes on oid and on datname.
pg_shadow now has unique indexes on usename and on usesysid.
pg_am now has unique index on oid.
pg_opclass now has unique index on oid.
pg_amproc now has unique index on amid+amopclaid+amprocnum.
Remove pg_rewrite's unnecessary index on oid, delete unused RULEOID syscache.
Remove index on pg_listener and associated syscache for performance reasons
(caching rows that are certain to change before you need 'em again is
rather pointless).
Change pg_attrdef's nonunique index on adrelid into a unique index on
adrelid+adnum.
Fix various incorrect settings of pg_class.relisshared, make that the
primary reference point for whether a relation is shared or not.
IsSharedSystemRelationName() is now only consulted to initialize relisshared
during initial creation of tables and indexes. In theory we might now
support shared user relations, though it's not clear how one would get
entries for them into pg_class &etc of multiple databases.
Fix recently reported bug that pg_attribute rows created for an index all have
the same OID. (Proof that non-unique OID doesn't matter unless it's
actually used to do lookups ;-))
There's no need to treat pg_trigger, pg_attrdef, pg_relcheck as bootstrap
relations. Convert them into plain system catalogs without hardwired
entries in pg_class and friends.
Unify global.bki and template1.bki into a single init script postgres.bki,
since the alleged distinction between them was misleading and pointless.
Not to mention that it didn't work for setting up indexes on shared
system relations.
Rationalize locking of pg_shadow, pg_group, pg_attrdef (no need to use
AccessExclusiveLock where ExclusiveLock or even RowExclusiveLock will do).
Also, hold locks until transaction commit where necessary.
when built against readline 4.2. Specifically, it handles the deprecation
of
filename_completion_function()
with preference for
rl_filename_completion_function()
Although, I was motivated by Cygwin support, IMO this patch is appropriate
for all platforms. To quote from the readline source:
#if 0
/* Backwards compatibility (compat.c). These will go away sometime. */
...
extern READLINE_EXPORT(char, *filename_completion_function) ...
#endif
Note that this patch is modeled after the one by Peter Eisentraut for
completion_matches():
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/~petere/readline42.html
I tested this patch under the following environments:
Cygwin with readline 4.1
Cygwin with readline 4.2
Linux with readline 2.2.1
Linux with readline 4.2
and it behaved as expected.

for GRANT/REVOKE is now just that, not "CHANGE".
On the way, migrate some of the aclitem internal representation away from
the parser and build a real parse tree instead. Also add some 'const'
qualifiers.
appropriate pin-count manipulation, and instead use ReleaseAndReadBuffer.
Make use of the fact that the passed-in buffer (if there is one) must
be pinned to avoid grabbing the bufmgr spinlock when we are able to
return this same buffer. Eliminate unnecessary 'previous tuple' and
'next tuple' fields of HeapScanDesc and IndexScanDesc, thereby removing
a whole lot of bookkeeping from heap_getnext() and related routines.
copy PUBLIC access rights into each newly created ACL entry. Instead
treat each ACL entry as independent flags. Also clean up some ugliness
in acl.h API.
WHERE (a = 1 or a = 2) and b = 42
and an index on (a,b), include the clause b = 42 in the indexquals
generated for each arm of the OR clause. Essentially this is an index-
driven conversion from CNF to DNF. Implementation is a bit klugy, but
better than not exploiting the extra quals at all ...
of costsize.c routines to pass Query root, so that costsize can figure
more things out by itself and not be so dependent on its callers to tell
it everything it needs to know. Use selectivity of hash or merge clause
to estimate number of tuples processed internally in these joins
(this is more useful than it would've been before, since eqjoinsel is
somewhat more accurate than before).
(vs. at the end of a normal sort). This ensures that explicit sorts
yield the same ordering as a btree index scan. To be really sure that
that equivalence holds, we use the btree entries in pg_amop to decide
whether we are looking at a '<' or '>' operator. For a sort operator
that has no btree association, we put the nulls at the front if the
operator is named '>' ... pretty grotty, but it does the right thing in
simple ASC and DESC cases, and at least there's no possibility of getting
a different answer depending on the plan type chosen.
Use --enable-nls to turn it on; see installation instructions for details.
See developer's guide how to make use of it in programs and how to add
translations.
psql sources have been almost fully prepared and an incomplete German
translation has been provided. In the backend, only elog() calls are
currently translatable, and the provided German translation file is more
of a placeholder.
calls. This has never actually cached anything, because postgres.c does
each fastpath call as a separate transaction command, and so fastpath.c
would always decide that its cache was outdated. If it had worked, it
would now be failing for calls of oldstyle functions due to dangling
pointers in the FmgrInfo struct. Rip it out for simplicity and bug-
proofing.
report on old-style functions invoked by RI triggers. We had a number of
other places that were being sloppy about which memory context FmgrInfo
subsidiary data will be allocated in. Turns out none of them actually
cause a problem in 7.1, but this is for arcane reasons such as the fact
that old-style triggers aren't supported anyway. To avoid getting burnt
later, I've restructured the trigger support so that we don't keep trigger
FmgrInfo structs in relcache memory. Some other related cleanups too:
it's not really necessary to call fmgr_info at all while setting up
the index support info in relcache entries, because those ScanKeyEntry
structs are never used to invoke the functions. This should speed up
relcache initialization a tiny bit.
basically want your guys feedback. I have sprinkled some of my q's thru
the text delimited with the @@ symbol. It seems to work perfectly.
[ Removed @@ comments because patch was reviewed. ]
At the moment it does CHECK constraints only, with inheritance. However,
due to the problem mentioned before with the mismatching between inherited
constraints it may be wise to disable the inheritance feature for a while.
it is written in an extensible fashion to support future dropping of other
types of constraint, and is well documented.
Please send me your comments, check my use of locking, updating of
indices, use of ERROR and NOTICE, etc. and I will rework the patch based
on feedback until everyone
is happy with it...

the same tuple slot that the raw tuple came from, because that slot has
the wrong tuple descriptor. Store it into its own slot with the correct
descriptor, instead. This repairs problems with SPI functions seeing
inappropriate tuple descriptors --- for example, plpgsql code failing to
cope with SELECT FOR UPDATE.
Python) to support shared extension modules, I have learned that Guido
prefers the style of the attached patch to solve the above problem.
I feel that this solution is particularly appropriate in this case
because the following:
PglargeType
PgType
PgQueryType
are already being handled in the way that I am proposing for PgSourceType.

it does not support 64bit integers. AFAIK that's the default data type for
OIDs, so I am not surprised that this does not work. Use gcc instead.
BTW., 7.1 does not compile as is with gcc either, I believed the
required patches made it into the 7.1.1 release but obviously I missed
the deadline.
Since the ports mailing list does not seem to be archived I have attached
a copy of the patch (for 7.1 and 7.1.1).
I've just performed a build of a Watcom compiled version and found a couple
of bugs in the watcom specific part of that patch. Please use the attached
version instead.

to do that, but inconsistently.) Make bit type reject too short input,
too, per SQL. Since it no longer zero pads, 'zpbit*' has been renamed to
'bit*' in the source, hence initdb.
- New functions to create a portal using a prepared/saved
SPI plan or lookup an existing portal by name.
- Functions to fetch/move from/in portals. Results are placed
in the usual SPI_processed and SPI_tuptable, so the entire
set of utility functions can be used to gain attribute access.
- Prepared/saved SPI plans now use their own memory context
and SPI_freeplan(plan) can remove them.
- Tuple result sets (SPI_tuptable) now uses it's own memory
context and can be free'd by SPI_freetuptable(tuptab).
Enhancement of PL/pgSQL
- Uses generic named portals internally in FOR ... SELECT
loops to avoid running out of memory on huge result sets.
- Support for CURSOR and REFCURSOR syntax using the new SPI
functionality. Cursors used internally only need no explicit
transaction block. Refcursor variables can be used inside
of explicit transaction block to pass cursors between main
application and functions.

create_index_paths are not immediately discarded, but are available for
subsequent planner work. This allows avoiding redundant syscache lookups
in several places. Change interface to operator selectivity estimation
procedures to allow faster and more flexible estimation.
Initdb forced due to change of pg_proc entries for selectivity functions!
