d06ebdb8d3 Update aggregate-function docs for STDDEV, VARIANCE. 2000-07-17 03:52:28 +00:00
bec98a31c5 Revise aggregate functions per earlier discussions in pghackers.
There's now only one transition value and transition function.
NULL handling in aggregates is a lot cleaner.  Also, use Numeric
accumulators instead of integer accumulators for sum/avg on integer
datatypes --- this avoids overflow at the cost of being a little slower.
Implement VARIANCE() and STDDEV() aggregates in the standard backend.

Also, enable new LIKE selectivity estimators by default.  Unrelated
change, but as long as I had to force initdb anyway...

files to restrict the set of users that can connect to a database
but can still use the pg_shadow password. (You just leave off the
password field in the secondary file.)

a164213219 New and revised material for Admin guide, re backup & restore and database
management
2000-06-30 16:14:21 +00:00
1aebc3618a First phase of memory management rewrite (see backend/utils/mmgr/README
for details).  It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no
short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is
in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably.  A few long-
standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single
query string crashing.  Also, out-of-memory is now considered a
recoverable ERROR, not FATAL.
Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around
memory management.
Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and
backend startup.

3fb8c9d1f9 Update FAQ. 2000-06-24 01:51:14 +00:00
c446509565 Second pass over run-time configuration system. Adjust priorities on some
option settings. Sort out SIGHUP vs BACKEND -- there is no total ordering
here, so make explicit checks. Add comments explaining all of this.
Removed permissions check on SHOW command.

Add examine_subclass to the game, rename to SQL_inheritance to fit the
official data model better. Adjust documentation.

Standalone backend needs to reset all options before it starts. To
facilitate that, have IsUnderPostmaster be set by the postmaster itself,
don't wait for the magic -p switch.

Also make sure that all environment variables and argv's survive
init_ps_display(). Use strdup where necessary.

Have initdb make configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf) mode
0600 -- having configuration files is no fun if you can't edit them.

c590273fef Clean up bogosities in pg_opclass, pg_amop, pg_amproc. There are amproc
entries now for int8 and network hash indexes.  int24_ops and int42_ops
are gone.  pg_opclass no longer contains multiple entries claiming to be
the default opclass for the same datatype.  opr_sanity regress test
extended to catch errors like these in the future.
