- no more elog(STOP) in StartupXLOG();
- both checkpoint' undo & redo are used to define
oldest on-line log file.
2. Ability to pre-allocate a few log files at checkpoint time
(wal_files option). Off by default.
in per-entry sub-memory-context, where they were supposed to go, rather
than in CacheMemoryContext where the code was putting them. Must've
suffered a severe brain fade when I wrote this :-(
Previous result did not have correct month boundaries so anything near edge
cases was suspect (e.g. April was in Q1 and July, August were lumped into
Q2).
Thanks to Denis Osadchy <osadchy@turbo.nsk.su> for the report.
starting a new hashtable search no longer clobbers any other search
active anywhere in the system. Fix RelationCacheInvalidate() so that
it will not crash or go into an infinite loop if invoked recursively,
as for example by a second SI Reset message arriving while we are still
processing a prior one.
1. Distinguish cases where a Datum representing a tuple datatype is an OID
from cases where it is a pointer to TupleTableSlot, and make sure we use
the right typlen in each case.
2. Make fetchatt() and related code support 8-byte by-value datatypes on
machines where Datum is 8 bytes. Centralize knowledge of the available
by-value datatype sizes in two macros in tupmacs.h, so that this will be
easier if we ever have to do it again.
table that inherits from a temp table. Make sure the right things happen
if one creates a temp table, creates another temp that inherits from it,
then renames the first one. (Previously, system would end up trying to
delete the temp tables in the wrong order.)
recommendation from Paul Vixie. Add a new abbrev() function to produce
abbreviated format as text. No forced initdb, but new function is not
available unless you do an initdb or add the pg_proc row manually.
to ensure that we have released buffer refcounts and so forth, rather than
putting ad-hoc operations before (some of the calls to) proc_exit. Add
commentary to discourage future hackers from repeating that mistake.

Again thanks Kovacs, you found really designing bug, that appear
if anyone write bad format template to "number" version of to_char()
(as you with 'DD').

varlena type. (I did not force initdb, but you won't see the fix
unless you do one.) Also, make sure all index support operators and
functions are careful not to leak memory for toasted inputs; I had
missed some hash and rtree support ops on this point before.
As I read it, the spec requires a non-null result in some cases where
one of the inputs is NULL: specifically, if the other endpoint of that
interval is between the endpoints of the other interval, then the result
is known TRUE despite the missing endpoint. The spec could've been a
lot simpler if they did not intend this behavior.
I did not force an initdb for this change, but if you don't do one you'll
still see the old strict-function behavior.
Allow some operator-like tokens to be used as function names.
Flesh out support for time, timetz, and interval operators
and interactions.
Regression tests pass, but non-reference-platform horology test results
will need to be updated.
since those routines may do palloc's. We want to be fairly sure we can
send the error message to the client even under low-memory conditions.
That's what we stashed away 8K in ErrorContext for, after all ...
not-very-good handling of mid-size allocation requests. Do everything via
either the "small" case (chunk size rounded up to power of 2) or the "large"
case (pass it straight off to malloc()). Increase the number of freelists
a little to set the breakpoint between these behaviors at 8K.
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) <object files> <extra-libraries> $(LIBS) -o $@
This form seemed to be the most portable, readable, and logical, but in any
case it's better than having a dozen different ones in the tree.
both MULTIBYTE and TOAST prevent char(n) from being truly fixed-size.
Simplify and speed up fastgetattr() and index_getattr() macros by
eliminating special cases for attnum=1. It's just as fast to handle
the first attribute by presetting its attcacheoff to zero; so do that
instead when loading the tupledesc in relcache.c.
socket file, in favor of having an ordinary lockfile beside the socket file.
Clean up a few robustness problems in the lockfile code. If postmaster is
going to reject a connection request based on database state, it will now
tell you so before authentication exchange not after. (Of course, a failure
after is still possible if conditions change meanwhile, but this makes life
easier for a yet-to-be-written pg_ping utility.)
IPC key assignment will now work correctly even when multiple postmasters
are using same logical port number (which is possible given -k switch).
There is only one shared-mem segment per postmaster now, not 3.
Rip out broken code for non-TAS case in bufmgr and xlog, substitute a
complete S_LOCK emulation using semaphores in spin.c. TAS and non-TAS
logic is now exactly the same.
When deadlock is detected, "Deadlock detected" is now the elog(ERROR)
message, rather than a NOTICE that comes out before an unhelpful ERROR.
