This allows us to reliably remove all leftover temporary relation
files on cluster startup without reference to system catalogs or WAL;
therefore, we no longer include temporary relations in XLOG_XACT_COMMIT
and XLOG_XACT_ABORT WAL records.
Since these changes require including a backend ID in each
SharedInvalSmgrMsg, the size of the SharedInvalidationMessage.id
field has been reduced from two bytes to one, and the maximum number
of connections has been reduced from INT_MAX / 4 to 2^23-1. It would
be possible to remove these restrictions by increasing the size of
SharedInvalidationMessage by 4 bytes, but right now that doesn't seem
like a good trade-off.

Without this patch, constraints inherited by children of a parent
table which itself has multiple inheritance parents can end up with
the wrong coninhcount. After dropping the constraint, the children
end up with a leftover copy of the constraint that is not dumped
and cannot be dropped. There is a similar problem with ALTER TABLE
.. ADD COLUMN, but that looks significantly more difficult to
resolve, so I'm committing this fix separately.
Back-patch to 8.4, which is the first release that has coninhcount.

indexes when the index column type (the opclass opckeytype) is different from
the expression's datatype. When coded, this limitation wasn't worth worrying
about because we had no intelligence to speak of in stats collection for the
datatypes used by such opclasses. However, now that there's non-toy
estimation capability for tsvector queries, it amounts to a bug that ANALYZE
fails to do this.
The fix changes struct VacAttrStats, and therefore constitutes an API break
for custom typanalyze functions. Therefore we can't back-patch it into
released branches, but it was agreed that 9.0 isn't yet frozen hard enough
to make such a change unacceptable. Ergo, back-patch to 9.0 but no further.
The API break had better be mentioned in 9.0 release notes.
assuming that a local char[] array would be aligned on at least a word
boundary. There are architectures on which that is pretty much guaranteed to
NOT be the case ... and those arches also don't like non-aligned memory
accesses, meaning that log_newpage() would crash if it ever got invoked.
Even on Intel-ish machines there's a potential for a large performance penalty
from doing I/O to an inadequately aligned buffer. So palloc it instead.
Backpatch to 8.0 --- 7.4 doesn't have this code.
Avoid hard-coding lockmode used for many altering DDL commands, allowing easier
future changes of lock levels. Implementation of initial analysis on DDL
sub-commands, so that many lock levels are now at ShareUpdateExclusiveLock or
ShareRowExclusiveLock, allowing certain DDL not to block reads/writes.
First of number of planned changes in this area; additional docs required
when full project complete.
Remove bespoke code in DoCopy and RI_Initial_Check, which now instead
fabricate call ExecCheckRTPerms with a manufactured RangeTblEntry.
This is intended to make it feasible for an enhanced security provider
to actually make use of ExecutorCheckPerms_hook, but also has the
advantage that RI_Initial_Check can allow use of the fast-path when
column-level but not table-level permissions are present.

rather than just $N. This brings the display of nestloop-inner-indexscan
plans back to where it's been, and incidentally improves the display of
SubPlan parameters as well. In passing, simplify the EXPLAIN code by
having it deal primarily in the PlanState tree rather than separately
searching Plan and PlanState trees. This is noticeably cleaner for
subplans, and about a wash elsewhere.
One small difference from previous behavior is that EXPLAIN will no longer
qualify local variable references in inner-indexscan plan nodes, since it
no longer sees such nodes as possibly referencing multiple tables. Vars
referenced through PARAM_EXEC Params are still forcibly qualified, though,
so I don't think the display is any more confusing than before. Adjust a
couple of examples in the documentation to match this behavior.
Backpatch to 8.3, which is as far back as we have opfamilies.
The opclass portion could probably be backpatched to 8.2, when
REASSIGN OWNED was added, but for now I have not done that.
Asko Tiidumaa, with minor adjustments by me.
In HEAD, emit a warning when an operator named => is defined.
In both HEAD and the backbranches (except in 8.2, where contrib
modules do not have documentation), document that hstore's text =>
text operator may be removed in a future release, and encourage the
use of the hstore(text, text) function instead. This function only
exists in HEAD (previously, it was called tconvert), so backpatch
it back to 8.2, when hstore was added. Per discussion.
While my previous attempt seems to always produce valid YAML, it
doesn't always produce YAML that means what it appears to mean,
because of tokens like "0xa" and "true", which without quotes will
be interpreted as integer or Boolean literals. So, instead, just
quote everything that's not known to be a number, as we do for
JSON.
Dean Rasheed, with some changes to the comments by me.
The previous code failed to quote in many cases where quoting was necessary -
YAML has loads of special characters, including -:[]{},"'|*& - so quote much
more aggressively, and only refrain from quoting things where it seems fairly
clear that it isn't necessary.
Per report from Dean Rasheed.
before it checks whether the expression is immutable. This covers two cases
that were previously handled poorly:
1. SQL function inlining could reduce the apparent volatility of the
expression, allowing an expression to be accepted where it previously would
not have been. As an example, polymorphic functions must be marked with the
worst-case volatility they have for any argument type, but for specific
argument types they might not be so volatile, so indexing could be allowed.
(Since the planner will refuse to inline functions in cases where the
apparent volatility of the expression would increase, this won't break
any cases that were accepted before.)
2. A nominally immutable function could have default arguments that are
volatile expressions. In such a case insertion of the defaults will increase
both the apparent and actual volatility of the expression, so it is
*necessary* to check this before allowing the expression to be indexed.
Back-patch to 8.4, where default arguments were introduced.
rather than returning NULL for some-but-not-all failures as they used to.
Remove now-redundant tests for NULL from call sites.
We had to do something about this because many call sites were failing to
check for NULL; and changing it like this seems a lot more useful and
mistake-proof than adding checks to the call sites without them.
archival or hot standby should be WAL-logged, instead of deducing that from
other options like archive_mode. This replaces recovery_connections GUC in
the primary, where it now has no effect, but it's still used in the standby
to enable/disable hot standby.
Remove the WAL-logging of "unlogged operations", like creating an index
without WAL-logging and fsyncing it at the end. Instead, we keep a copy of
the wal_mode setting and the settings that affect how much shared memory a
hot standby server needs to track master transactions (max_connections,
max_prepared_xacts, max_locks_per_xact) in pg_control. Whenever the settings
change, at server restart, write a WAL record noting the new settings and
update pg_control. This allows us to notice the change in those settings in
the standby at the right moment, they used to be included in checkpoint
records, but that meant that a changed value was not reflected in the
standby until the first checkpoint after the change.
Bump PG_CONTROL_VERSION and XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC. Whack XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC back to
the sequence it used to follow, before hot standby and subsequent patches
changed it to 0x9003.
come from the realistion that HEAP2_CLEAN records don't
always remove user visible data, so conflict processing for
them can be skipped. Confirm validity using Assert checks,
clarify circumstances under which we log heap_cleanup_info
records. Tuning arises from bug fixing of earlier safety
check failures.
There is no other purpose for this message type than to report
the latestRemovedXid of removed tuples, prior to index scans.
Removes overlooked path for sending invalid latestRemovedXid.
Fixes buildfarm failure on centaur.
vacuum_log_cleanup_info() now generates log records with a valid
latestRemovedXid set in all cases. Also be careful not to zero the
value when we do a round of vacuuming part-way through lazy_scan_heap().
Incidentally, this reduces frequency of conflicts in Hot Standby.
This operates in the same way as other CREATE OR REPLACE commands, ie,
it replaces everything but the ownership and ACL lists of an existing
entry, and requires the caller to have owner privileges for that entry.
While modifying an existing language has some use in development scenarios,
in typical usage all the "replaced" values come from pg_pltemplate so there
will be no actual change in the language definition. The reason for adding
this is mainly to allow programs to ensure that a language exists without
triggering an error if it already does exist.
This commit just adds and documents the new option. A followon patch
will use it to clean up some unpleasant cases in pg_dump and pg_regress.
Add some checks that seem logically necessary, in particular let's make
real sure that HS slave sessions cannot create temp tables. (If they did
they would think that temp tables belonging to the master's session with
the same BackendId were theirs. We *must* not allow myTempNamespace to
become set in a slave session.)
Change setval() and nextval() so that they are only allowed on temp sequences
in a read-only transaction. This seems consistent with what we allow for
table modifications in read-only transactions. Since an HS slave can't have a
temp sequence, this also provides a nicer cure for the setval PANIC reported
by Erik Rijkers.
Make the error messages more uniform, and have them mention the specific
command being complained of. This seems worth the trifling amount of extra
code, since people are likely to see such messages a lot more than before.
NAMEDATALEN, so this code doesn't go nuts with smaller than default
BLCKSZ or larger than default NAMEDATALEN. The standard value is
still exactly 8000.
In addition, add support for a "payload" string to be passed along with
each notify event.
This implementation should be significantly more efficient than the old one,
and is also more compatible with Hot Standby usage. There is not yet any
facility for HS slaves to receive notifications generated on the master,
although such a thing is possible in future.

The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller
of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists,
GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number
of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will
make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a
future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code
shorter, too.

Move rd_targblock, rd_fsm_nblocks, and rd_vm_nblocks from relcache to the smgr
relation entries, so that they will get reset to InvalidBlockNumber whenever
an smgr-level flush happens. Because we now send smgr invalidation messages
immediately (not at end of transaction) when a relation truncation occurs,
this ensures that other backends will reset their values before they next
access the relation. We no longer need the unreliable assumption that a
VACUUM that's doing a truncation will hold its AccessExclusive lock until
commit --- in fact, we can intentionally release that lock as soon as we've
completed the truncation. This patch therefore reverts (most of) Alvaro's
patch of 2009-11-10, as well as my marginal hacking on it yesterday. We can
also get rid of assorted no-longer-needed relcache flushes, which are far more
expensive than an smgr flush because they kill a lot more state.
In passing this patch fixes smgr_redo's failure to perform visibility-map
truncation, and cleans up some rather dubious assumptions in freespace.c and
visibilitymap.c about when rd_fsm_nblocks and rd_vm_nblocks can be out of
date.
truncating the table and transaction commit. This isn't really making
it safe, but at least there is no good reason to do free space map
cleanup within the risk window. Don't lock out cancel interrupts
until we have to, either.
