"bad smell" in that code. Stuff like function parameters that aren't
used, typos in the comments, comparison between signed and unsigned
ints, etc.
Attached is a pretty trivial patch; it compiles, but beyond that
completely untested. Unless anyone sees any problems, please apply for
7.3.

queries over non-blocking connections with libpq. "Larger" here
basically means that it doesn't fit into the output buffer.
The basic strategy is to fix pqFlush and pqPutBytes.
The problem with pqFlush as it stands now is that it returns EOF when an
error occurs or when not all data could be sent. The latter case is
clearly not an error for a non-blocking connection but the caller can't
distringuish it from an error very well.
The first part of the fix is therefore to fix pqFlush. This is done by
to renaming it to pqSendSome which only differs from pqFlush in its
return values to allow the caller to make the above distinction and a
new pqFlush which is implemented in terms of pqSendSome and behaves
exactly like the old pqFlush.
The second part of the fix modifies pqPutBytes to use pqSendSome instead
of pqFlush and to either send all the data or if not all data can be
sent on a non-blocking connection to at least put all data into the
output buffer, enlarging it if necessary. The callers of pqPutBytes
don't have to be changed because from their point of view pqPutBytes
behaves like before. It either succeeds in queueing all output data or
fails with an error.
I've also added a new API function PQsendSome which analogously to
PQflush just calls pqSendSome. Programs using non-blocking queries
should use this new function. The main difference is that this function
will have to be called repeatedly (calling select() properly in between)
until all data has been written.
AFAICT, the code in CVS HEAD hasn't changed with respect to non-blocking
queries and this fix should work there, too, but I haven't tested that
yet.

three-or-more-way UNIONs, as per example from Josh Berkus. Cause is a
fragile assumption that one tlist's entries will exactly match another.
Restructure code to make that assumption a little less fragile.
An attached patch corrects problem of this bug and fractional second.
The handling of time zone was as follows:
(a) with time zone
using SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss z")
(b) without time zone
using SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss")
About problem of fractional second,
Fractional second was changed from milli-second to nano-second

timestamp/timestamptz combo. Now extract/date_part returns
seconds*1000 or 1000000 + fraction part as the manual stats.
regression test are also fixed.

when to send what to which, prevent recursion by introducing new COMMERROR
elog level for client-communication problems, get rid of direct writes
to stderr in backend/libpq files, prevent non-error elogs from going to
client during the authentication cycle.
speed up repetitive failed searches; per pghackers discussion in late
January. inval.c logic substantially simplified, since we can now treat
inserts and deletes alike as far as inval events are concerned. Some
repair work needed in heap_create_with_catalog, which turns out to have
been doing CommandCounterIncrement at a point where the new relation has
non-self-consistent catalog entries. With the new inval code, that
resulted in assert failures during a relcache entry rebuild.
now just below FATAL in server_min_messages. Added more text to
highlight ordering difference between it and client_min_messages.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
REALLYFATAL => PANIC
STOP => PANIC
New INFO level the prints to client by default
New LOG level the prints to server log by default
Cause VACUUM information to print only to the client
NOTICE => INFO where purely information messages are sent
DEBUG => LOG for purely server status messages
DEBUG removed, kept as backward compatible
DEBUG5, DEBUG4, DEBUG3, DEBUG2, DEBUG1 added
DebugLvl removed in favor of new DEBUG[1-5] symbols
New server_min_messages GUC parameter with values:
DEBUG[5-1], INFO, NOTICE, ERROR, LOG, FATAL, PANIC
New client_min_messages GUC parameter with values:
DEBUG[5-1], LOG, INFO, NOTICE, ERROR, FATAL, PANIC
Server startup now logged with LOG instead of DEBUG
Remove debug_level GUC parameter
elog() numbers now start at 10
Add test to print error message if older elog() values are passed to elog()
Bootstrap mode now has a -d that requires an argument, like postmaster
both input streams to the end. If one variable's range is much less
than the other, an indexscan-based merge can win by not scanning all
of the other table. Per example from Reinhard Max.
before reporting command-complete message for the final command of a
query string. This way, any errors detected during finish_xact_command
(such as RI violations) will appear to be part of the final command,
rather than coming out after the command is reported complete. This
avoids confusing PQendcopy and other not-overly-bright clients.
Per Lee Harr's bug report of 25-Feb-02.
matches the sequence name from pg_class. This fails if the sequence has
been renamed, and seems rather pointless in any case.
Also improve a couple of error messages about inconsistencies.
are now both invoked once per received SQL command (raw parsetree) from
pg_exec_query_string. BeginCommand is actually just an empty routine
at the moment --- all its former operations have been pushed into tuple
receiver setup routines in printtup.c. This makes for a clean distinction
between BeginCommand/EndCommand (once per command) and the tuple receiver
setup/teardown routines (once per ExecutorRun call), whereas the old code
was quite ad hoc. Along the way, clean up the calling conventions for
ExecutorRun a little bit.
