names from being added to pgindent's typedef list. The existance of
them caused weird formatting in the date/type files, and in keywords.c.

sense and rename to "outerjoin_delayed" to more clearly reflect what it
means). I had decided that it was redundant in 8.1, but the folly of this
is exposed by a bug report from Sebastian Böck. The place where it's
needed is to prevent orindxpath.c from cherry-picking arms of an outer-join
OR clause to form a relation restriction that isn't actually legal to push
down to the relation scan level. There may be some legal cases that this
forbids optimizing, but we'd need much closer analysis to determine it.
slot of the topmost plan node when a trigger returns a modified tuple.
These appear to be the only places where a plan node's caller did not
treat the result slot as read-only, which is an assumption that nodeUnique
makes as of 8.1. Fixes trigger-vs-DISTINCT bug reported by Frank van Vugt.
surprising results when it's some other numeric type. This doesn't solve
the generic problem of surprising implicit casts to text, but it's a
low-impact way of making sure this particular case behaves sanely.
Per gripe from Harald Fuchs and subsequent discussion.
anything but transaction-exiting commands (ROLLBACK etc). We already rejected
Parse and Execute in such cases, so there seems little point in allowing Bind.
This prevents at least an Assert failure, and probably worse things, since
there's a lot of infrastructure that doesn't work when not in a live
transaction. We can also simplify the Bind logic a bit by rejecting messages
with a nonzero number of parameters, instead of the former kluge to silently
substitute NULL for each parameter. Per bug #2033 from Joel Stevenson.
on every index page they read; in particular to catch the case of an
all-zero page, which PageHeaderIsValid allows to pass. It turns out
hash already had this idea, but it was just Assert()ing things rather
than doing a straight error check, and the Asserts were partially
redundant with PageHeaderIsValid anyway. Per recent failure example
from Jim Nasby. (gist still needs the same treatment.)
to assume that the string pointer passed to set_ps_display is good forever.
There's no need to anyway since ps_status.c itself saves the string, and
we already had an API (get_ps_display) to return it.
I believe this explains Jim Nasby's report of intermittent crashes in
elog.c when %i format code is in use in log_line_prefix.
While at it, repair a previously unnoticed problem: on some platforms such as
Darwin, the string returned by get_ps_display was blank-padded to the maximum
length, meaning that lock.c's attempt to append " waiting" to it never worked.
create circularity of role memberships. This is a minimum-impact fix
for the problem reported by Florian Pflug. I thought about removing
the superuser_arg test from is_member_of_role() altogether, as it seems
redundant for many of the callers --- but not all, and it's way too late
in the 8.1 cycle to be making large changes. Perhaps reconsider this
later.
from a finished plan tree. We have to copy the output column names
(resname fields) from the SubqueryScan down to its child plan node;
else, if this is the topmost level of the plan, the wrong column names
will be delivered to the client. Per bug #2017 reported by Jolly Chen.
very narrow window in which SimpleLruReadPage or SimpleLruWritePage could
think that I/O was needed when it wasn't (and indeed the buffer had already
been assigned to another page). This would result in an Assert failure if
Asserts were enabled, and probably in silent data corruption if not.
Reported independently by Jim Nasby and Robert Creager.
I intend a more extensive fix when 8.2 development starts, but this is a
reasonably low-impact patch for the existing branches.
setting for the regression makefile, allowing Windows users to force locale
settings since Windows does not get its locale from the environment.

of postgres.imp file into BE_DLLLIBS macro. This makes the AIX build
work more like the Windows and Darwin builds, which have similar requirements
to mention a backend library when linking shared libraries that will be
dynamically loaded into the backend.
multixact's starting offset before the offset has been stored into the
SLRU file. A simple fix would be to hold the MultiXactGenLock until the
offset has been stored, but that looks like a big concurrency hit. Instead
rely on knowledge that unset offsets will be zero, and loop when we see
a zero. This requires a little extra hacking to ensure that zero is never
a valid value for the offset. Problem reported by Matteo Beccati, fix
ideas from Martijn van Oosterhout, Alvaro Herrera, and Tom Lane.
advance its usage_count. This includes writes of dirty buffers triggered
by bgwriter, checkpoint, or FlushRelationBuffers, as well as various
corner cases that really ought not count as accesses to the page.
Should make for some marginal improvement in the quality of our decisions
about when to recycle buffers. Per suggestion from ITAGAKI Takahiro.
inFromCl true, meaning that they will list out as explicit RTEs if they
are in a view or rule. Update comments about inFromCl to reflect the way
it's now actually used. Per recent discussion.
for an outer join; symptom is bogus error "RIGHT JOIN is only supported with
merge-joinable join conditions". Problem was that select_mergejoin_clauses
did its tests in the wrong order. We need to force left join not right join
for a merge join when there are non-mergeable join clauses; but the test for
this only accounted for mergejoinability of the clause operator, and not
whether the left and right Vars were of the proper relations. Per report
from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.
some small stylistic improvements in these functions. Also fix several
places where TMODULO() was being used with wrong-sized quotient argument,
creating a risk of overflow --- interval2tm was actually capable of going
into an infinite loop because of this.
