f00da6d841 Allow the postmaster to accept changes in PGC_BACKEND GUC variables
from the config file, so that these changes will propagate to backends
started later.  Already-started backends continue to ignore changes
in these variables.

85c2d1c4ca Change tar -T file to tar cat file for BSD tar. 2001-09-30 19:18:29 +00:00
e7bbf4bc1c Change tar -c -f to -cf for BSD tar. 2001-09-30 19:09:57 +00:00
f9f258281e Create a GUC parameter max_files_per_process that is a configurable
upper limit on what we will believe from sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX).  The
default value is 1000, so that under ordinary conditions it won't
affect the behavior.  But on platforms where the kernel promises far
more than it can deliver, this can be used to prevent running out of
file descriptors.  See numerous past discussions, eg, pgsql-hackers
around 23-Dec-2000.

14d330b5b6 Use <mediaobject> instead of <graphic> for forward compatibility. Be more
flexible about the extension of the graphic files, allow for other formats
in print output.  (Generating these formats is not implemented yet.)

b600319c25 Fix *.gif expansion to be empty when no gif files are used. 2001-09-30 16:01:12 +00:00
499abb0c0f Implement new 'lightweight lock manager' that's intermediate between
existing lock manager and spinlocks: it understands exclusive vs shared
lock but has few other fancy features.  Replace most uses of spinlocks
with lightweight locks.  All remaining uses of spinlocks have very short
lock hold times (a few dozen instructions), so tweak spinlock backoff
code to work efficiently given this assumption.  All per my proposal on
pghackers 26-Sep-01.
2001-09-29 04:02:27 +00:00
0b268e5d88 Fix markup to allow compilation. The chapters on failure and recovery
need more work, but at least they have something now.
2001-09-28 20:48:17 +00:00
f9681968e0 Add information on new timestamp and timestamptz data types.
Start chapter on recovery techniques. Still needs work for release.
2001-09-28 08:15:35 +00:00
3d59ad00e8 Remove useless LockDisable() function and associated overhead, per my
proposal of 26-Aug.

0a24c70a8f Add mention of log file rotation with mention of syslog SIGHUP capability. 2001-09-23 04:06:24 +00:00

* Change LIMIT val,val to offset,limit to match MySQL

Documentation updates too.

fdf07fe14f For consistency with the rest of PostgreSQL, rename BLOBs to large objects
in messages and documentation.

196700c372 Add 'reload' option to pg_ctl to send SIGHUP to the postmaster. 2001-09-21 21:10:56 +00:00
c1c888a9de Code review for MD5 authorization patch. Clean up some breakage
(salts were always zero!?), add much missing documentation.
2001-09-21 20:31:49 +00:00
4e77b4a548 Readd test/regress/README file, this time with a well-defined and simple
rule to remake it when necessary.

35b7601b04 Add an overall timeout on the client authentication cycle, so that
a hung client or lost connection can't indefinitely block a postmaster
child (not to mention the possibility of deliberate DoS attacks).
Timeout is controlled by new authentication_timeout GUC variable,
which I set to 60 seconds by default ... does that seem reasonable?
2001-09-21 17:06:12 +00:00
c969fed7ec Give VACUUM its own GUC parameter for memory usage, rather than
piggybacking on SortMem.  Add documentation for some recently-added
GUC parameters that had so far escaped it.
2001-09-21 03:32:36 +00:00
14ac04710a Document the sign() function. 2001-09-20 16:41:26 +00:00
a1ee06625c Provide tunable knob for x = NULL -> x IS NULL transformation, default to off. 2001-09-20 14:20:28 +00:00
4a4abd4232 Generate index.html as the root file name of the documentation set,
rather than making index.html a symlink to the autogenerated name.
Fixes fatal problems with tar programs that don't handle symlinks
very well (MacOS X).

(The names user.html, admin.html, etc. are still available as make
targets, but they aren't packaged anymore.)

Use the manifest file that the stylesheets generate as the file list
for packaging.  Put graphics in the right place while building, not
while packaging, so you can actually look at them after building.

264f8f2b6c Install dynamically loadable modules into a private subdirectory
under libdir, for a cleaner separation in the installation layout
and compatibility with binary packaging standards.  Point backend's
default search location there.  The contrib modules are also
installed in the said location, giving them the benefit of the
default search path as well.  No changes in user interface
nevertheless.
