really general fix might be difficult, I believe the only case where
AtCommit_Notify could see an uncommitted tuple is where the other guy
has just unlistened and not yet committed. The best solution seems to
be to just skip updating that tuple, on the assumption that the other
guy does not want to hear about the notification anyway. This is not
perfect --- if the other guy rolls back his unlisten instead of committing,
then he really should have gotten this notify. But to do that, we'd have
to wait to see if he commits or not, or make UNLISTEN hold exclusive lock
on pg_listener until commit. Either of these answers is deadlock-prone,
not to mention horrible for interactive performance. Do it this way
for now. (What happened to that project to do LISTEN/NOTIFY in memory
with no table, anyway?)
tests) when using flex 2.5.31. The fix is to *not* try to use palloc
and pfree for allocations within the lexer; when you do that, the
yy_buffer_stack gets freed at inopportune times. The code is already
set up to do manual deallocation, so I see no particular advantage to
using palloc anyway.
used as trigger on different relations. I am not convinced that Tcl
actually has to have this, but it seems a good idea to make it be
parallel to the other PLs that definitely do need it.
relation, when the same function is used as a trigger on more than
one relation. This avoids crashes due to differing rowtypes for
different relations. Per bug report from Lance Thomas, 7-Feb-03.
This was the last piece of code that took it upon itself to reset the
random number sequence --- now we only have srandom() in postmaster start,
backend start, and explicit setseed() operations.
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.
comments/examples in pg_hba.conf. This patch remedies that, adds a brief
explanation of the connection types, and adds a missing period in the
docs.

I had to make a further change to this to take quotes off the 'last
ANALYZE' in order for it to not overquote the relation name, so
there's a _little_ work left to get it to play well.
I have deployed it onto several boxes that should be doing some
vacuuming over the weekend, and it is now certainly hitting pg_
tables.
I would like to present a CVS-oriented patch; unfortunately, I had to
change the indentation patterns when editing some of it :-(. The
following _may_ be good; not sure...

* use non-*_r function names if they are all thread-safe
* (NEED_REENTRANT_FUNCS=no)
* use *_r functions if they exist (configure test)
* do our own locking and copying of non-threadsafe functions
New to this patch is the last option.
ps status as '[local]', not as 'localhost' as the code has been doing
recently. That's too easily confused with TCP loopback connections,
and there is no good reason to change the behavior anyway.
to create a TCP/IP socket from FATAL to LOG. This was unwise;
historically we have expected socket conflicts to abort postmaster
startup. Conflicts on port numbers with another postmaster can only
be detected reliably at the TCP socket level.
