Donald Fraser, in which renaming a column referenced in a rule did not
work very well.
yet, though). Avoid using nth() to fetch tlist entries; provide a
common routine get_tle_by_resno() to search a tlist for a particular
resno. This replaces a couple uses of nth() and a dozen hand-coded
search loops. Also, replace a few uses of nth(length-1, list) with
llast().
index pages: when _bt_getbuf asks the FSM for a free index page, it is
possible (and, in some cases, even moderately likely) that the answer
will be the same page that _bt_split is trying to split. _bt_getbuf
already knew that the returned page might not be free, but it wasn't
prepared for the possibility that even trying to lock the page could
be problematic. Fix by doing a conditional rather than unconditional
grab of the page lock.
getopt_long(). This is more or less the same problem as we saw earlier
with getaddrinfo() and struct addrinfo, and for the same reason: random
user-added libraries might contain the subroutine, but there's no
guarantee we will find the matching header files.

potentially a stack smash, though I do not think it is a problem in
current uses of the routine, since a failure return causes elog anyway.

With these patches, we still work on hppa with either gcc or HP's cc.
We might work on hpux/itanium with gcc, but I can't test it. Definitely
will not work on hpux/itanium with non-gcc compiler, for lack of spinlock

CREATE TABLE (or ALTER TABLE SET DEFAULT), rather than postponing it to
the time that the default is inserted into an INSERT command by the
rewriter. This reverses an old decision that was intended to make the
world safe for writing

but in fact merely made the failure modes subtle rather than obvious.

ability to specify that input is interpreted as yy-mm-dd order (which
formerly worked, but only for yy greater than 31). DateStyle's input

New items have been added to GucContext and GucSource enums, but of
course they were not added to the corresponding GucContextName[] and
GucSourceName[] arrays in the patch. Here's a new patch to fix the
resulting bugs.

This version has the seven fields I proposed, including "source". Here's
an example that shows why I think it's valuable:
regression=# \x
Expanded display is on.
regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------
name | enable_seqscan
setting | on
context | user
vartype | bool
source | default
min_val |
max_val |
regression=# update pg_settings set setting = 'off' where name =
'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]---
set_config | off
regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------
name | enable_seqscan
setting | off
context | user
vartype | bool
source | session
min_val |
max_val |
regression=# alter user postgres set enable_seqscan to 'off';
ALTER USER
(log out and then back in again)
regression=# \x
Expanded display is on.
regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------
name | enable_seqscan
setting | off
context | user
vartype | bool
source | user
min_val |
max_val |
In the first case, enable_seqscan is set to its default value. After
setting it to off, it is obvious that the value has been changed for the
session only. In the third case, you can see that the value has been set
specifically for the user.

was modified for IPv6. Use a robust definition of struct sockaddr_storage,
do a proper configure test to see if ss_len exists, don't assume that
getnameinfo() will handle AF_UNIX sockets, don't trust getaddrinfo to
return the protocol we ask for, etc. This incorporates several outstanding
patches from Kurt Roeckx, but I'm to blame for anything that doesn't
work ...
for the sign of timezone offsets, ie, positive is east from UTC. These
were previously out of step with other operations that accept or show
timezones, such as I/O of timestamptz values.
