Tom Lane aa83bc04e0 Restructure parsetree representation of DECLARE CURSOR: now it's a
utility statement (DeclareCursorStmt) with a SELECT query dangling from
it, rather than a SELECT query with a few unusual fields in it.  Add
code to determine whether a planned query can safely be run backwards.
If DECLARE CURSOR specifies SCROLL, ensure that the plan can be run
backwards by adding a Materialize plan node if it can't.  Without SCROLL,
you get an error if you try to fetch backwards from a cursor that can't
handle it.  (There is still some discussion about what the exact
behavior should be, but this is necessary infrastructure in any case.)
Along the way, make EXPLAIN DECLARE CURSOR work.

Tom Lane 391eb5e5b6 Reimplement free-space-map management as per recent discussions.
Adjustable threshold is gone in favor of keeping track of total requested
page storage and doling out proportional fractions to each relation
(with a minimum amount per relation, and some quantization of the results
to avoid thrashing with small changes in page counts).  Provide special-
case code for indexes so as not to waste space storing useless page
free space counts.  Restructure internal data storage to be a flat array
instead of list-of-chunks; this may cost a little more work in data
copying when reorganizing, but allows binary search to be used during
lookup_fsm_page_entry().

Tom Lane 799bc58dc7 More infrastructure for btree compaction project. Tree-traversal code
now knows what to do upon hitting a dead page (in theory anyway, it's
untested...).  Add a post-VACUUM-cleanup entry point for index AMs, to
provide a place for dead-page scavenging to happen.
Also, fix oversight that broke btpo_prev links in temporary indexes.
initdb forced due to additions in pg_am.

Bruce Momjian cde8bbc413 This patch makes the following changes to the documentation:
- more work from the SGML police

- some grammar improvements: rewriting a paragraph or two, replacing
contractions where (IMHO) appropriate

- fix missing utility commands in lock mode docs

- improve CLUSTER, REINDEX, SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION ref pages

Bruce Momjian a286f73210 The following patches eliminate the overflows in the j2date() and date2j()
functions which limited the maximum date for a timestamp to AD 1465001.
The new limit is AD 5874897.
The files affected are:

doc/src/sgml/datatype.sgml:
    Documentation change due to patch. Included is a notice about
    the reduced range when using an eight-byte integer for timestamps.

src/backend/utils/adt/datetime.c:
    Replacement functions for j2date() and date2j() functions.

src/include/utils/datetime.h:
    Corrected a bug with the limit on the earliest possible date,
    Nov 23,-4713 has a Julian day count of -1. The earliest possible
    date should be Nov 24, -4713 with a day count of 0.

src/test/regress/expected/horology-no-DST-before-1970.out:
src/test/regress/expected/horology-solaris-1947.out:
src/test/regress/expected/horology.out:
    Copies of expected output for regression testing.
    Note: Only horology.out has been physically tested. I do not have access
    to a Solaris box and I don't know how to provoke the "pre-1970" test.

src/test/regress/sql/horology.sql:
    Added some test cases to check extended range.

Bruce Momjian aca86479fd This patch adds a note to the documentation describing why the
performance of min() and max() is slow when applied to the entire table,
and suggesting the simple workaround most experienced Pg users
eventually learn about (SELECT xyz ... ORDER BY xyz LIMIT 1).
