This does not disable the bgwriter process: it still has to wake up often
enough to collect fsync requests from backends in a timely fashion. But
it responds to the recent gripe about not being able to prevent the disk
from being spun up constantly.
specifies a new default tablespace and the template database already has
some tables in that tablespace. There isn't any way to solve this fully
without modifying the clone database's pg_class contents, so for now the
best we can do is issue a better error message.

actually setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,...) does not work at all on this platform.

pins at end of transaction, and reduce AtEOXact_Buffers to an Assert
cross-check that this was done correctly. When not USE_ASSERT_CHECKING,
AtEOXact_Buffers is a complete no-op. This gets rid of an O(NBuffers)
bottleneck during transaction commit/abort, which recent testing has shown
becomes significant above a few tens of thousands of shared buffers.
(if any) currently waited for by LockBufferForCleanup(), which is all
that we were using it for anymore. Saves some space and eliminates
proportional-to-NBuffers slowdown in UnlockBuffers().

This fix is intended to be permanent: it moves the responsibility for
calling SetBufferCommitInfoNeedsSave() into the tqual.c routines,
eliminating the requirement for callers to test whether t_infomask changed.
Also, tighten validity checking on buffer IDs in bufmgr.c --- several
routines were paranoid about out-of-range shared buffer numbers but not
about out-of-range local ones, which seems a tad pointless.

- remove another senseless "extern" keyword that was applied to a
function definition
- change a foo more function signatures from "some_type foo()" to
"some_type foo(void)"
- rewrite another K&R style function definition
- make the type of the "action" function pointer in the KeyWord struct
in src/backend/utils/adt/formatting.c more precise
for scanning one term of an OR clause if the index's predicate is implied
by that same OR clause term (possibly in conjunction with top-level WHERE
clauses). Per recent example from Dawid Kuroczko,

Also, fix a very long-standing bug in index predicate testing, namely the
bizarre ordering of decomposition of predicate and restriction clauses.
AFAICS the correct way is to break down the predicate all the way, and
then for each component term see if you can prove it from the entire
restriction set. The original coding had a purely-implementation-artifact
distinction between ANDing at the top level and ANDing below that, and
proceeded to get the decomposition order wrong everywhere below the top
level, with the result that even slightly complicated AND/OR predicates
could not be proven. For instance, given
create index foop on foo(f2) where f1=42 or f1=1
or (f1 = 11 and f2 = 55);
the old code would fail to match this index to the query
select * from foo where f1 = 11 and f2 = 55;
when it obviously ought to match.

a more plausible column order for this view and pg_tables. Update
documentation of these views, which was missed in original patch.
- replace some function signatures of the form "some_type foo()" with
"some_type foo(void)"
- replace a few instances of a literal 0 being used as a NULL pointer;
there are more instances of this in the code, but I just fixed a few
- in src/backend/utils/mb/wstrncmp.c, replace K&R style function
declarations with ANSI style, remove use of 'register' keyword
- remove an "extern" modifier that was applied to a function definition
(rather than a declaration)
The vars are renamed to data_directory, config_file, hba_file, and
ident_file, and are guaranteed to be set to accurate absolute paths
during postmaster startup.
This commit does not yet do anything about hiding path values from
non-superusers.
Refactor code into something reasonably understandable, cause
use of the feature to not fail in standalone backends or in
EXEC_BACKEND case, fix sloppy guc.c table entries, make the
documentation minimally usable.
list elements comma-separated instead of barfing. This allows elimination
of half a dozen redundant copies of that behavior, and also makes the
world safe again for pg_get_expr() applied to pg_index.indexprs, per gripe
from Alexander Zhiltsov.
columns. The returned tuple needs to have appropriate NULL columns
inserted so that it actually matches the declared rowtype. It seemed
convenient to use a JunkFilter for this, so I made some cleanups and
simplifications in the JunkFilter code to allow it to support this
additional functionality. (That in turn exposed a latent bug in
nodeAppend.c, which is that it was returning a tuple slot whose
descriptor didn't match its data.) Also, move check_sql_fn_retval
out of pg_proc.c and into functions.c, where it seems to more naturally
belong.

different backends get a reasonably wide set of initial seeds even if
gettimeofday returns tv_usec values with only a few bits of precision.
Per recent discussion.
* Links with -leay32 and -lssleay32 instead of crypto and ssl. On win32,
"crypto and ssl" is only used for static linking.
* Initializes SSL in the backend and not just in the postmaster. We
cannot pass the SSL context from the postmaster through the parameter
file, because it contains function pointers.
* Split one error check in be-secure.c. Previously we could not tell
which of three calls actually failed. The previous code also returned
incorrect error messages if SSL_accept() failed - that function needs to
use SSL_get_error() on the return value, can't just use the error queue.
* Since the win32 implementation uses non-blocking sockets "behind the
scenes" in order to deliver signals correctly, implements a version of
SSL_accept() that can handle this. Also, add a wait function in case
SSL_read or SSL_write() needs more data.

running contains VACUUM or a similar command that will internally start
and commit transactions. In such a case, the original caller values of
CurrentMemoryContext and CurrentResourceOwner will point to objects that
will be destroyed by the internal commit. We must restore these pointers
to point to the newly-manufactured transaction context and resource owner,
rather than possibly pointing to deleted memory.
Also tweak xact.c so that AbortTransaction and AbortSubTransaction
forcibly restore a sane value for CurrentResourceOwner, much as they
have always done for CurrentMemoryContext. I'm not certain this is
necessary but I'm feeling paranoid today.

Fix scanint8 to allow trailing whitespace in INT64_MIN case. Update

couple of people to modify the int8 regression test, and remove
int8-exp-three-digits-win32.out which is thereby exposed as redundant.

This seems the cleanest way of fixing its lack of a shutdown callback,
which was preventing it from working correctly in a query that didn't

must be stale. Tweak example startup scripts to not use pg_ctl but launch
the postmaster directly, thereby ensuring that only the postmaster's direct
parent shell will be a postgres-owned process. In combination these should
fix the longstanding problem of the postmaster sometimes refusing to start
during reboot because it thinks the old lockfile is not stale.
