handleCopyIn incremented pset.lineno for each line of COPY data read from
a file. This is correct when reading from the current script file (i.e.,
we are doing COPY FROM STDIN followed by in-line data), but it's wrong if
the data is coming from some other file. Per bug #6083 from Steve Haslam.
Back-patch to all supported versions.
Somehow, column rolconfig got removed from the documentation of the
pg_roles view in the 9.0 cycle, although the column is actually still
there. In 9.1, we'd also forgotten to document the rolreplication column.

Unlike the relistemp field which it replaced, relpersistence must be
set correctly quite early during the table creation process, as we
rely on it quite early on for a number of purposes, including security
checks. Normally, this is set based on whether the user enters CREATE
TABLE, CREATE UNLOGGED TABLE, or CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE, but a
relation may also be made implicitly temporary by creating it in
pg_temp. This patch fixes the handling of that case, and also
disables creation of unlogged tables in temporary tablespace (such
table indeed skip WAL-logging, but we reject an explicit
specification) and creation of relations in the temporary schemas of
other sessions (which is not very sensible, and didn't work right
anyway).
Report by Amit Khandekar.
Certain subdirectories do not get built if corresponding options are not
selected at configure time. However, "make distprep" should visit such
directories anyway, so that constructing derived files to be included in
the tarball happens without requiring all configure options to be given
in the tarball build script. Likewise, it's better if cleanup actions
unconditionally visit all directories (for example, this ensures proper
cleanup if someone has done a manual make in such a subdirectory).
To handle this, set up a convention that subdirectories that are
conditionally included in SUBDIRS should be added to ALWAYS_SUBDIRS
instead when they are excluded.
Back-patch to 9.1, so that plpython's spiexceptions.h will get provided
in 9.1 tarballs. There don't appear to be any instances where distprep
actions got missed in previous releases, and anyway this fix requires
gmake 3.80 so we don't want to apply it before 9.1.
Such a condition is unsatisfiable in combination with any other type of
btree-indexable condition (since we assume btree operators are always
strict). 8.3 and 8.4 had an explicit test for this, which I removed in
commit 29c4ad9829, mistakenly thinking that
the case would be subsumed by the more general handling of IS (NOT) NULL
added in that patch. Put it back, and improve the comments about it, and
add a regression test case.
Per bug #6079 from Renat Nasyrov, and analysis by Dean Rasheed.
more consistent that way, since all the other PredicateLock* calls are
made in various heapam.c and index AM functions. The call in nodeSeqscan.c
was unnecessarily aggressive anyway, there's no need to try to lock the
relation every time a tuple is fetched, it's enough to do it once.
This has the user-visible effect that if a seq scan is initialized in the
executor, but never executed, we now acquire the predicate lock on the heap
relation anyway. We could avoid that by taking the lock on the first
heap_getnext() call instead, but it doesn't seem worth the trouble given
that it feels more natural to do it in heap_beginscan().
Also, remove the retail PredicateLockTuple() calls from heap_getnext(). In
a seqscan, started with heap_begin(), we're holding a whole-relation
predicate lock on the heap so there's no need to lock the tuples
individually.

WAL records of type XLOG_BTREE_REUSE_PAGE were generated using a
latestRemovedXid one higher than actually needed because xid used was
page opaque->btpo.xact rather than an actually removed xid.
Noticed on an otherwise quiet system by Noah Misch.

Explain that querying pg_locks does not simultaneously lock both the
normal lock manager and the predicate lock manager.
Per discussion with Kevin Grittner.
s/const//g wasn't exactly what I was suggesting here ... parameter
declarations of the form "const structtype *param" are good and useful,
so put those occurrences back. Likewise, avoid casting away the const
in a "const void *" parameter.
backend/Makefile was treating errcodes.h as a header always generated
during build, but actually it's a header provided in tarballs. Hence,
must use the absolute-symlink recipe, not the relative-symlink one.
Per bug #6072 from Hartmut Raschick.
As Tom Lane pointed out, "const Relation foo" doesn't guarantee that you
can't modify the data the "foo" pointer points to. It just means that you
can't change the pointer to point to something else within the function,
which is not very useful.
A password containing a character with the high bit set was misprocessed
on machines where char is signed (which is most). This could cause the
preceding one to three characters to fail to affect the hashed result,
thus weakening the password. The result was also unportable, and failed
to match some other blowfish implementations such as OpenBSD's.
Since the fix changes the output for such passwords, upstream chose
to provide a compatibility hack: password salts beginning with $2x$
(instead of the usual $2a$ for blowfish) are intentionally processed
"wrong" to give the same hash as before. Stored password hashes can
thus be modified if necessary to still match, though it'd be better
to change any affected passwords.
In passing, sync a couple other upstream changes that marginally improve
performance and/or tighten error checking.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Since this issue is already
public, no reason not to commit the fix ASAP.
already been marked as PREPARED cannot be killed. Kill the current
transaction instead.
One of the prepared_xacts regression tests actually hits this bug. I
removed the anomaly from the duplicate-gids test so that it fails in the
intended way, and added a new test to check serialization failures with
a prepared transaction.

MARKED_FOR_DEATH flags into one. We still need the ROLLED_BACK flag to
mark transactions that are in the process of being rolled back. To be
precise, ROLLED_BACK now means that a transaction has already been
discounted from the count of transactions with the oldest xmin, but not
yet removed from the list of active transactions.

When recursing after an optimization in pull_up_sublinks_qual_recurse, the
available_rels value passed down must include only the relations that are
in the righthand side of the new SEMI or ANTI join; it's incorrect to pull
up a sub-select that refers to other relations, as seen in the added test
case. Per report from BangarRaju Vadapalli.
While at it, rethink the idea of recursing below a NOT EXISTS. That is
essentially the same situation as pulling up ANY/EXISTS sub-selects that
are in the ON clause of an outer join, and it has the same disadvantage:
we'd force the two joins to be evaluated according to the syntactic nesting
order, because the lower join will most likely not be able to commute with
the ANTI join. That could result in having to form a rather large join
product, whereas the handling of a correlated subselect is not quite that
dumb. So until we can handle those cases better, #ifdef NOT_USED that
case. (I think it's okay to pull up in the EXISTS/ANY cases, because SEMI
joins aren't so inflexible about ordering.)
Back-patch to 8.4, same as for previous patch in this area. Fortunately
that patch hadn't made it into any shipped releases yet.
The release notes may contain non-ASCII characters (for contributor
names), which lynx converts to the encoding determined by the current
locale. The get output that is deterministic and easily readable by
everyone, we make lynx produce LATIN1 and then convert that to ASCII
with transliteration for the non-ASCII characters.
I mis-simplified the test where ANALYZE decided if it could get away
without doing anything: under the new regime, that's never allowed. Per
bug #6068 from Jeff Janes. Back-patch to 8.4, just like previous patch.
This is a dangerous example to provide because on machines with GNU cp,
it will silently do the wrong thing and risk archive corruption. Worse,
during the 9.0 cycle somebody "improved" the discussion by removing the
warning that used to be there about that, and instead leaving the
impression that the command would work as desired on most Unixen.
It doesn't. Try to rectify the damage by providing an example that is safe
most everywhere, and then noting that you can try cp -i if you want but
you'd better test that.
In back-patching this to all supported branches, I also added an example
command for Windows, which wasn't provided before 9.0.
For some reason, when we (I) added table lock acquisition to pg_dump,
we didn't think about making it happen as soon as possible after the
start of the transaction. What with subsequent additions, there was
actually quite a lot going on before we got around to that; which sort
of defeats the purpose. Rearrange the order of calls in dumpSchema()
to close the risk window as much as we easily can. Back-patch to all
supported branches.
The previous code went into an infinite loop after overflow. In fact,
an overflow is not really an error; it just means that the current
value is the last one we need to return. So, just arrange to stop
immediately when overflow is detected.
Back-patch all the way.
The code that created the init fork neglected to make sure that the
relation was open at the smgr level before attempting to invoke smgr.
This didn't happen every time; only when the relcache entry was rebuilt
along the way.
Per report from Garick Hamlin.
SSI is based on, as well as the optimizations about relative commit times
and read-only transactions. Plus a bunch of other misc fixes and
improvements.
