devised for pg_shdepend, namely the individual dependencies are reported as
DETAIL lines rather than coming out as separate NOTICEs. The client-side
report is capped at 100 lines, but the server log always gets a full report.
CacheInvalidateRelcache() crashes if called in WAL recovery, because the
invalidation infrastructure hasn't been initialized yet.
Back-patch to 8.2, where the bug was introduced.
Basically just reuse the same text that psql emitted as part of
its startup banner in prior versions, and make some whitespace
more consistent with the conventions in other psql command output.
algorithm, replacing the original intention of a one-pass search, which
had been hacked up over time to be partially two-pass in hopes of handling
various corner cases better. It still wasn't quite there, especially as
regards emitting unwanted NOTICE messages. More importantly, this approach
lets us fix a number of open bugs concerning concurrent DROP scenarios,
because we can take locks during the first pass and avoid traversing to
dependent objects that were just deleted by someone else.
There is more that can be done here, but I'll go ahead and commit the
base patch before working on the options.
more logical that way, and also it reduces the amount of unnecessary includes

My previous patch to bufpage.h should also have credited him as author, but I
forgot (sorry about that).
patches that dealt with object ownership. It wasn't updating pg_shdepend
nor adjusting the aggregate's ACL. In 8.2 and up, fix this permanently
by making it use AlterFunctionOwner_oid. In 8.1, the function code wasn't
factored that way, so just copy and paste.
This is needed because :: casting binds more tightly than minus, so for
example -1::integer is not the same as (-1)::integer, and there are cases
where the difference is important. In particular this caused a failure
in SELECT DISTINCT ... ORDER BY ... where expressions that should have
matched were seen as different by the parser; but I suspect that there
could be other cases where failure to parenthesize leads to subtler
semantic differences in reloaded rules. Per report from Alexandr Popov.
doesn't work, and the real reason why not is it's unclear where the path
is relative to (initdb's CWD, or the data directory?). We could make an
arbitrary decision, but it seems best to make the user be unambiguous.
Per gripe from Devrim.
the PARAM_FLAG_CONST flag on the parameters that are passed into the portal,
while the former's behavior is unchanged. This should only affect the case
where the portal is executing an EXPLAIN; it will cause the generated plan to
look more like what would be generated if the portal were actually executing
the command being explained. Per gripe from Pavel.
"make all", and then reference them there during the actual tests. This
makes the handling of these files more parallel to that of regress.so,
and in particular simplifies use of the regression tests outside the
original build tree. The PGDG and Red Hat RPMs have been doing this via
patches for a very long time. Inclusion of the change in core was requested
by Jørgen Austvik of Sun, and I can't see any reason not to.
I attempted to fix the MSVC scripts for this too, but they may need
further tweaking ...
we are on a 64-bit machine (ie, size_t is wider than int) and someone passes
in a query string that approaches or exceeds INT_MAX bytes. Also, just for
paranoia's sake, guard against similar overflows in sizing the input buffer.
The backend will not in the foreseeable future be prepared to send or receive
strings exceeding 1GB, so I didn't take the more invasive step of switching
all the buffer index variables from int to size_t; though someday we might
want to do that.
I have a suspicion that this is not the only such bug in libpq, but this
fix is enough to take care of the crash reported by Francisco Reyes.
calling convention. cube_inter and cube_distance could attempt to pfree
their input arguments, and cube_dim returned a value from a struct it
might have just pfree'd (which would only really cause a problem in a
debug build, but it's still wrong). Per bug #4208 and additional code
reading.
In HEAD and 8.3, I also made a batch of cosmetic changes to bring these
functions into line with the preferred coding style for V1 functions,
ie declare and fetch all the arguments at the top so readers can easily
see what they are.

require SELECT privilege as well, since you normally need to read existing
column values within such commands. This behavior is according to spec,
but we'd never documented it before. Per gripe from Volkan Yazici.
This is required on Windows due to the special locale

the associated datatype as their equality member. This means that these
opclasses can now support plain equality comparisons along with LIKE tests,
thus avoiding the need for an extra index in some applications. This
optimization was not possible when the pattern opclasses were first introduced,
because we didn't insist that text equality meant bitwise equality; but we
do now, so there is no semantic difference between regular and pattern
equality operators.
I removed the name_pattern_ops opclass altogether, since it's really useless:
name's regular comparisons are just strcmp() and are unlikely to become
something different. Instead teach indxpath.c that btree name_ops can be
used for LIKE whether or not the locale is C. This might lead to a useful
speedup in LIKE queries on the system catalogs in non-C locales.
The ~=~ and ~<>~ operators are gone altogether. (It would have been nice to
keep them for backward compatibility's sake, but since the pg_amop structure
doesn't allow multiple equality operators per opclass, there's no way.)
A not-immediately-obvious incompatibility is that the sort order within
bpchar_pattern_ops indexes changes --- it had been identical to plain
strcmp, but is now trailing-blank-insensitive. This will impact
in-place upgrades, if those ever happen.
Per discussions a couple months ago.
called before, not after, calling the assign_hook if any. This is because
push_old_value might fail (due to palloc out-of-memory), and in that case
there would be no stack entry to tell transaction abort to undo the GUC
assignment. Of course the actual assignment to the GUC variable hasn't
happened yet --- but the assign_hook might have altered subsidiary state.
Without a stack entry we won't call it again to make it undo such actions.
So this is necessary to make the world safe for assign_hooks with side
effects. Per a discussion a couple weeks ago with Magnus.
Back-patch to 8.0. 7.x did not have the problem because it did not have
allocatable stacks of GUC values.
cases. Recent buildfarm experience shows that it is sometimes possible
to execute several SQL commands in less time than the granularity of
Windows' not-very-high-resolution gettimeofday(), leading to a failure
because the tests expect the value of now() to change and it doesn't.
Also, it was recognized some time ago that the same area of the tests
could fail if local midnight passes between the insertion and the checking
of the values for 'yesterday', 'tomorrow', etc. Clean all this up per
ideas from myself and Greg Stark.
There remains a window for failure if the transaction block is entered
exactly at local midnight (so that 'now' and 'today' have the same value),
but that seems low-probability enough to live with.
Since the point of this change is mostly to eliminate buildfarm noise,
back-patch to all versions we are still actively testing.
