There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules
need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about
COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is
dead, it just doesn't know it yet.

postgres.h or c.h includes a system header (such as stdio.h or
stdlib.h), there's no need to specifically include it in any of the .c
files in the backend.

bitmap, if present).
Per Tom Lane's suggestion the information whether a tuple has an oid
or not is carried in the tuple descriptor. For debugging reasons
tdhasoid is of type char, not bool. There are predefined values for
WITHOID, WITHOUTOID and UNDEFOID.
This patch has been generated against a cvs snapshot from last week
and I don't expect it to apply cleanly to current sources. While I
post it here for public review, I'm working on a new version against a
current snapshot. (There's been heavy activity recently; hope to
catch up some day ...)
This is a long patch; if it is too hard to swallow, I can provide it
in smaller pieces:
Part 1: Accessor macros
Part 2: tdhasoid in TupDesc
Part 3: Regression test
Part 4: Parameter withoid to heap_addheader
Part 5: Eliminate t_oid from HeapTupleHeader
Part 2 is the most hairy part because of changes in the executor and
even in the parser; the other parts are straightforward.
Up to part 4 the patched postmaster stays binary compatible to
databases created with an unpatched version. Part 5 is small (100
lines) and finally breaks compatibility.

buffer manager with 'pg_clog', a specialized access method modeled
on pg_xlog. This simplifies startup (don't need to play games to
open pg_log; among other things, OverrideTransactionSystem goes away),
should improve performance a little, and opens the door to recycling
commit log space by removing no-longer-needed segments of the commit
log. Actual recycling is not there yet, but I felt I should commit
this part separately since it'd still be useful if we chose not to
do transaction ID wraparound.
given the fundamental restriction of not looking at transaction commit
data in pg_log. Use code that is actually based on tqual.c rather than
ad-hoc tests. Also write the tuple fetch loop using standard access
macros rather than ad-hoc code.
cloned, rather than always cloning template1. Modify initdb to generate
two identical databases rather than one, template0 and template1.
Connections to template0 are disallowed, so that it will always remain
in its virgin as-initdb'd state. pg_dumpall now dumps databases with
restore commands that say CREATE DATABASE foo WITH TEMPLATE = template0.
This allows proper behavior when there is user-added data in template1.
initdb forced!
Here's a patch to fix the " '.' not allowed in db path" problem I ran into.
I removed '.' from the set of illegial characters, but added backtick. I also
included an explicit test for attempting include a reference to a parent dir.
How that?

eliminating some wildly inconsistent coding in various parts of the
system. I set MAXPGPATH = 1024 in config.h.in. If anyone is really
convinced that there ought to be a configure-time test to set the
value, go right ahead ... but I think it's a waste of time.
* Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22).
* Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info,
and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all
backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex
hashtable that was used before). Add databaseOID to PROC structs.
* Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of
a database containing running backends. (It's a little tricky to prevent
a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new
backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up
its database in pg_database. My solution is to recheck that the DB is
OK at the end of InitPostgres. It may not be a 100% solution, but it's
a lot better than no interlock at all...)
* In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the
rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from
mdblindwrt().
* Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current
sources :-(.
You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.
additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or
'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked
with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures
that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent
problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with
mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched
heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on
a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to
arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this
sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in
DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi.
Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the
Relation struct layout slightly.
Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.
if MULTIBYTE is not enabled. So be sure to run initdb.
o these patches are made against the latest source tree (after
Bruce's massive patch, I think) BTW, I noticed that after running
regression, the oid field of pg_type seems disappeared.
regression=> select oid from pg_type; ERROR: attribute
'oid' not found
this happens after the constraints test. This occures with/without
my patches. strange...
o pg_database_mb.h, pg_class_mb.h, pg_attribute_mb.h are no longer
used, and shoud be removed.
o GetDatabaseInfo() in utils/misc/database.c removed (actually in
#ifdef 0). seems nobody uses.
t-ishii@sra.co.jp
no longer returns buffer pointer, can be gotten from scan;
descriptor; bootstrap can create multi-key indexes;
pg_procname index now is multi-key index; oidint2, oidint4, oidname
are gone (must be removed from regression tests); use System Cache
rather than sequential scan in many places; heap_modifytuple no
longer takes buffer parameter; remove unused buffer parameter in
a few other functions; oid8 is not index-able; remove some use of
single-character variable names; cleanup Buffer variables usage
and scan descriptor looping; cleaned up allocation and freeing of
tuples; 18k lines of diff;
As Bruce mentioned, this is due to the conflict among changes we made.
Included patches should fix the problem(I changed all MB to
MULTIBYTE). Please let me know if you have further problem.
P.S. I did not include pathces to configure and gram.c to save the
file size(configure.in and gram.y modified).
