115e5dd597 Remove ancient hack to work around a peculiarity of libcurses on HPUX.
Since we now use libtermcap in preference to libcurses, no need for hack
anymore.

e7a9ccdb6c I think that NUMERIC datatype has a problem in the performance that
the format on Tuple(Numeric) and the format to calculate(NumericVar)
are different. I understood that to reduce I/O. However, when many
comparisons or calculations of NUMERIC are executed, the conversion
of Numeric and NumericVar becomes a bottleneck.

It is profile result when "create index on NUMERIC column" is executed:

The create index command executes many comparisons of Numeric values.
Functions other than comparetup_index spent a lot of cycles for
conversion from Numeric to NumericVar.

An attached patch enables the comparison of Numeric values without
executing conversion to NumericVar. The execution time of that SQL
becomes half.

72153c0582 Improve the tests to see if ScalarArrayOpExpr is strict. Original coding

336a6491aa Improve my initial, rather hacky implementation of joins to append
relations: fix the executor so that we can have an Append plan on the
inside of a nestloop and still pass down outer index keys to index scans
within the Append, then generate such plans as if they were regular
inner indexscans.  This avoids the need to evaluate the outer relation
multiple times.

3893127431 Fix constraint exclusion to work in inherited UPDATE/DELETE queries
... in fact, it will be applied now in any query whatsoever.  I'm still
a bit concerned about the cycles that might be expended in failed proof
attempts, but given that CE is turned off by default, it's the user's
choice whether to expend those cycles or not.  (Possibly we should
change the simple bool constraint_exclusion parameter to something
more fine-grained?)

b3769066b8 In ecpg, automatically double single quotes in $$ strings because

8b109ebf14 Teach planner to convert simple UNION ALL subqueries into append relations,
thereby sharing code with the inheritance case.  This puts the UNION-ALL-view
approach to partitioned tables on par with inheritance, so far as constraint
exclusion is concerned: it works either way.  (Still need to update the docs
to say so.)  The definition of "simple UNION ALL" is a little simpler than
I would like --- basically the union arms can only be SELECT * FROM foo
--- but it's good enough for partitioned-table cases.

62a142036b Set progname early in the postmaster/postgres binary, rather than doing
it later.  This fixes a problem where EXEC_BACKEND didn't have progname
set, causing a segfault if log_min_messages was set below debug2 and our
own snprintf.c was being used.

Also alway strdup() progname.

Backpatch to 8.1.X and 8.0.X.

8a1468af4e Restructure planner's handling of inheritance. Rather than processing
inheritance trees on-the-fly, which pretty well constrained us to considering
only one way of planning inheritance, expand inheritance sets during the
planner prep phase, and build a side data structure that can be consulted
later to find which RTEs are members of which inheritance sets.  As proof of
concept, use the data structure to plan joins against inheritance sets more
efficiently: we can now use indexes on the set members in inner-indexscan
joins.  (The generated plans could be improved further, but it'll take some
executor changes.)  This data structure will also support handling UNION ALL
subqueries in the same way as inheritance sets, but that aspect of it isn't
finished yet.

0dd0e289c7 Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE bug: it sometimes tried to drop UNIQUE or PRIMARY KEY

3276e911d1 When building a bitmap scan, must copy the bitmapqualorig expression tree
to avoid sharing substructure with the lower-level indexquals.  This is
currently only an issue if there are SubPlans in the indexquals, which is
uncommon but not impossible --- see bug #2218 reported by Nicholas Vinen.
We use the same kluge for indexqual vs indexqualorig in the index scans
themselves ... would be nice to clean this up someday.

a1b7e70c5f Fix code that checks to see if an index can be considered to match the query's
requested sort order.  It was assuming that build_index_pathkeys always
generates a pathkey per index column, which was not true if implied equality
deduction had determined that two index columns were effectively equated to
each other.  Simplest fix seems to be to install an option that causes
build_index_pathkeys to support this behavior as well as the original one.
Per report from Brian Hirt.

ebdefb93b2 Per a bug report from Theo Schlossnagle, plperl_return_next() leaks
memory in the executor's per-query memory context. It also inefficient:
it invokes get_call_result_type() and TupleDescGetAttInMetadata() for
every call to return_next, rather than invoking them once (per PL/Perl
function call) and memoizing the result.

This patch makes the following changes:

- refactor the code to include all the "per PL/Perl function call" data
inside a single struct, "current_call_data". This means we don't need to
save and restore N pointers for every recursive call into PL/Perl, we
can just save and restore one.

- lookup the return type metadata needed by plperl_return_next() once,
and then stash it in "current_call_data", so as to avoid doing the
lookup for every call to return_next.

- create a temporary memory context in which to evaluate the return
type's input functions. This memory context is reset for each call to
return_next.

The patch appears to fix the memory leak, and substantially reduces
the overhead imposed by return_next.

cab99ec300 Tweak initdb to reduce verbosity of progress messages, by printing just

ec057a4380 Fix display of whole-row Var appearing at the top level of a SELECT list.
While we normally prefer the notation "foo.*" for a whole-row Var, that does
not work at SELECT top level, because in that context the parser will assume
that what is wanted is to expand the "*" into a list of separate target
columns, yielding behavior different from a whole-row Var.  We have to emit
just "foo" instead in that context.  Per report from Sokolov Yura.

8d8bf12760 Clean up the INET-vs-CIDR situation. Get rid of the internal is_cidr flag
and rely exclusively on the SQL type system to tell the difference between
the types.  Prevent creation of invalid CIDR values via casting from INET
or set_masklen() --- both of these operations now silently zero any bits
to the right of the netmask.  Remove duplicate CIDR comparison operators,
letting the type rely on the INET operators instead.

c389760c32 Remove the no-longer-useful BTItem/BTItemData level of structure, and
just refer to btree index entries as plain IndexTuples, which is what
they have been for a very long time.  This is mostly just an exercise
in removing extraneous notation, but it does save a palloc/pfree cycle
per index insertion.
