and hash bucket-size estimation. Issue has been there awhile but is more
critical in 7.4 because it affects varchar columns. Per report from

proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted
earlier to pgsql-hackers. pg_dump now always specifies WITH OIDS or
WITHOUT OIDS when dumping a table. The documentation has been updated.

to note:
1) arttype is numeric. I thought this was the best way of allowing
arbitarily large factorials, even though factorial(2^63) is a large
number. Happy to change to integers if this is overkill.
2) since we're accepting numeric arguments, the patch tests for floats.
If a numeric is passed with non-zero decimal portion, an error is raised
since (from memory) they are undefined.

This first part of the background writer does no syncing at all.
It's only purpose is to keep the LRU heads clean so that regular
backends seldom to never have to call write().

which had been unintentionally broken by recent changes to tighten up the
DateStyle rules for all-numeric date input. Add documentation and
regression tests for this, too.
pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.
Remove the 'strategy map' code, which was a large amount of mechanism
that no longer had any use except reverse-mapping from procedure OID to
strategy number. Passing the strategy number to the index AM in the
first place is simpler and faster.
This is a preliminary step in planned support for cross-datatype index
operations. I'm committing it now since the ScanKeyEntryInitialize()
API change touches quite a lot of files, and I want to commit those
changes before the tree drifts under me.

In this special case, the new key slipped in totally unchecked.

extra parens, but at this stage of the release cycle I want certainty

scenarios where a custom opclass is created in 'public' and then used
by indexes in other schemas.
discussion on pgsql-hackers: in READ COMMITTED mode we just have to force
a QuerySnapshot update in the trigger, but in SERIALIZABLE mode we have
to run the scan under a current snapshot and then complain if any rows
would be updated/deleted that are not visible in the transaction snapshot.
Before patch:
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHECK (VALUE >= 0)
CHECK ((((a)::text = 'asdf'::text) OR ((a)::text = 'fdsa'::text)) OR
((a)::text = 'dfd'::text))
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid, true) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHECK VALUE >= 0
CHECK a::text = 'asdf'::text OR a::text = 'fdsa'::text OR a::text =
'dfd'::text
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
After patch:
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHECK (VALUE >= 0)
CHECK ((((a)::text = 'asdf'::text) OR ((a)::text = 'fdsa'::text)) OR
((a)::text = 'dfd'::text))
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid, true) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHECK (VALUE >= 0)
` CHECK (a::text = 'asdf'::text OR a::text = 'fdsa'::text OR a::text =
'dfd'::text)
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
It's important that those brackets are there to (a) match all other
constraints and (b) so that people can just copy and paste them and it
will work as SQL.

way too much on knowledge of plan structure, and yet still would fail
if the generated query got rewritten by rules.

now able to cope with assigning new relfilenode values to nailed-in-cache
indexes, so they can be reindexed using the fully crash-safe method. This
leaves only shared system indexes as special cases. Remove the 'index
deactivation' code, since it provides no useful protection in the shared-
index case. Require reindexing of shared indexes to be done in standalone
mode, but remove other restrictions on REINDEX. -P (IgnoreSystemIndexes)
now prevents using indexes for lookups, but does not disable index updates.
It is therefore safe to allow from PGOPTIONS. Upshot: reindexing system catalogs
can be done without a standalone backend for all cases except
shared catalogs.

recent gripe, I discovered not one but two undocumented, undesirable
behaviors of glibc's mktime. So, stop using it entirely, and always
rely on inversion of localtime() to determine the local time zone.
It's not even very much slower, as it turns out that mktime (at least
in the glibc implementation) also does repeated reverse-conversions.
sequence every time it's called is bogus --- it interferes with user
control over the seed, and actually decreases randomness overall
(because a seed based on time(NULL) is pretty predictable). If you really
want a reproducible result from geqo, do 'set seed = 0' before planning
a query.
