some concurrent changes Jan was making to the bufmgr. Here's an
updated version of the patch -- it should apply cleanly to CVS
HEAD and passes the regression tests.
This patch makes the following changes:
- remove the UnlockAndReleaseBuffer() and UnlockAndWriteBuffer()
macros, and replace uses of them with calls to the appropriate
functions.
- remove a bunch of #ifdef BMTRACE code: it is ugly & broken
(i.e. it doesn't compile)
- make BufferReplace() return a bool, not an int
- cleanup some logic in bufmgr.c; should be functionality
equivalent to the previous code, just cleaner now
- remove the BM_PRIVATE flag as it is unused
- improve a few comments, etc.
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains several language bindings, including C, Perl, Python, and Tcl, as well as a JDBC driver. The ODBC and C++ interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
