a kernel call unless there's some evidence of a pending signal. This should
bring its performance on Windows into line with the Unix version. Problem

if it's broken, it's my fault.
properly advancing the CommandCounter between multiple sub-queries
generated by rules, we forgot to update the snapshot being used, so
that the successive sub-queries didn't actually see each others'
results. This is still not *exactly* like the semantics of normal
execution of the same queries, in that we don't take new transaction
snapshots and hence don't see changes from concurrently committed
commands, but I think that's OK and probably even preferable for
EXPLAIN ANALYZE.
a parameter in binary format. Also, add a TIP explaining how to use casts
in the query text to avoid needing to specify parameter types by OID.
Also fix bogus spacing --- apparently somebody expanded the tabs in the
example programs to 8 spaces instead of 4 when transposing them into SGML.
since it can take a fair amount of time and this can confuse boot scripts
that expect postmaster.pid to appear quickly. Move initialization of SSL
library and preloaded libraries to after that point, too, just for luck.
Per reports from Tony Caduto and others.
module. Don't rely on backend palloc semantics; in fact, best to not
use palloc at all, rather than #define'ing it to malloc, because that
just encourages errors of omission. Bug spotted by Volkan YAZICI,
but I went further than he did to fix it.
generated from subquery outputs: use the type info stored in the Var
itself. To avoid making ExecEvalVar and slot_getattr more complex
and slower, I split out the whole-row case into a separate ExecEval routine.
type ID information even when it's a record type. This is needed to
handle whole-row Vars referencing subquery outputs. Per example from
Richard Huxton.
optimization for subquery and function scan nodes: we can't just do it
unconditionally, we still have to check whether there is any need for
a whole-row Var. I had been thinking that these node types couldn't
have any system columns, which is true, but that loop is also checking
for attno zero, ie, whole-row Var. Fix comment to not be so misleading.
Per test case from Richard Huxton.
fix problems with replacement-string backslashes that aren't followed by
one of the expected characters, avoid giving the impression that
replace_text_regexp() is meant to be called directly as a SQL function,
etc.
the facility has been set, the facility gets set to LOCAL0 and cannot
be changed later. This seems reasonably plausible to happen, particularly
at higher debug log levels, though I am not certain it explains Han Holl's
recent report. Easiest fix is to teach the code how to change the value
on-the-fly, which is nicer anyway. I made the settings PGC_SIGHUP to
conform with log_destination.
regression=# select '23:59:59.9'::time(0);

This is bad because:
regression=# select '24:00:00'::time(0);
ERROR: date/time field value out of range: "24:00:00"
The last example now works.
of client_min_messages (fatal + panic) are valid and also fixes a slight
issue with how psql tried to display error messages that aren't sent to
the client.
We often tell people to ignore errors in response to requests for things
like "drop if exists", but there's no good way to completely hide this
without upping client_min_messages past ERROR. When running a file like
SET client_min_messages TO 'FATAL';
DROP TABLE doesntexist;
with "psql -f filename" you get an error prefix of
"psql:/home/username/filename:3" even though there is no error message to
prefix because it isn't sent to the client.

This makes the error messages for PREPARE TRANSACTION, COMMIT PREPARED
etc. match the docs, which talk about "transaction identifier" not
"gid" or "global transaction identifier".

make_restrictinfo_from_bitmapqual. The likelihood of finding duplicates
seems much less than in the AND-subclause case, and the cost much higher,
because OR lists with hundreds or even thousands of subclauses are not
uncommon. Per discussion with Ilia Kantor and andrew@supernews.
the wrong buffer dirty when trying to kill a dead index entry that's on
a page after the one it started on. No risk of data corruption, just
inefficiency, but still a bug.
pointers, to ensure that compilers won't rearrange accesses to occur
while we're not holding the buffer header spinlock. It's probably
not necessary to mark volatile in every single place in bufmgr.c,
but better safe than sorry. Per trouble report from Kevin Grittner.
whether we seem to be running in a uniprocessor or multiprocessor.
The adjustment rules could probably still use further tweaking, but
I'm convinced this should be a win overall.
valid type information if they are asked to fetch the values part of a
pg_statistic slot; these arguments are unneeded if fetching only the
numbers part. Use this to save a catcache lookup in btcostestimate,
which is looking like a bit of a hotspot in recent profiling. Not a
big savings, but since it's essentially free, might as well do it.
A RestrictInfo representing an OR clause now contains two versions of
the contained expression, one with sub-RestrictInfos and one without.
clause_selectivity() should descend to the version with sub-RestrictInfos
so that it has a chance of caching its results for the OR's sub-clauses.
Failing to do so resulted in redundant planner effort.
emit when given the --clean option, in favor of individual DROP ROLE
commands. The old technique could not possibly work in 8.1, and was
never a very good idea anyway IMHO. The DROP ROLE approach has the
defect that the DROPs will fail for roles that own objects or have
privileges, but perhaps we can improve that later.
ie removing shared-dependency entries, should happen before non-rollbackable
ones. That way a failure during the rollbackable part doesn't leave us
with inconsistent state.
