comparison does not consider paths different when they differ only in
uninteresting aspects of sort order. (We had a special case of this
consideration for indexscans already, but generalize it to apply to
ordered join paths too.) Be stricter about what is a canonical pathkey
to allow faster pathkey comparison. Cache canonical pathkeys and
dispersion stats for left and right sides of a RestrictInfo's clause,
to avoid repeated computation. Total speedup will depend on number of
tables in a query, but I see about 4x speedup of planning phase for
a sample seven-table query.
OIDs rather than names. Aside from being simpler and faster, this way
doesn't blow up in the face of 'create temp table foo () inherits (foo)'.
Which is a rather odd thing to do, but it seems some people want to.
avoid repeated evaluations in cost_qual_eval(). This turns out to save
a useful fraction of planning time. No change to external representation
of RestrictInfo --- although that node type doesn't appear in stored
rules anyway.
all forms of foreign keys be exposed to SQLForeignKeys. This patch is in
addition to the ones I mailed yesterday (forget had I changed that as
well....)

return foreign key information based on the pg_trigger system table. I
have tested the patch with (what I believe) is all possible
primary/foreign key combinations -- however I may have missed some, so if
anyone feels like taking the patch for a test drive, here are some useful
links:

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.
value greater than one. The behavior this sought to disallow doesn't
seem any less confusing than the other behaviors of cached sequences.
Improve wording of some error messages, too.
Update documentation accordingly. Also add an explanation that
aborted transactions do not roll back their nextval() calls; this
seems to be a FAQ, so it ought to be mentioned here...
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.
work where we can (given that the executor only handles it at top level)
and generate an error where we can't. Note that while the parser has
been allowing views to say SELECT FOR UPDATE for a few weeks now, that
hasn't actually worked until just now.
an error as we used to. In an OUTER JOIN scenario, retrieving a null
CTID from one of the input relations is entirely expected. We still
want to lock the input rows from the other relations, so just ignore
the null and keep going.
I believe this should fix the issue that Philip Warner
noticed about the check for unique constraints meeting the
referenced keys of a foreign key constraint allowing the
specification of a subset of a foreign key instead of
rejecting it. I also added tests for a base case of
this to the foreign key and alter table tests and patches
for expected output.
report from Joel Burton. Turns out that my simple idea of turning the
SELECT into a subquery does not interact well *at all* with the way the
rule rewriter works. Really what we need to make INSERT ... SELECT work
cleanly is to decouple targetlists from rangetables: an INSERT ... SELECT
wants to have two levels of targetlist but only one rangetable. No time
for that for 7.1, however, so I've inserted some ugly hacks to make the
rewriter know explicitly about the structure of INSERT ... SELECT queries.
Ugh :-(
