contrib functionality. Along the way, remove the USER_LOCKS configuration
symbol, since it no longer makes any sense to try to compile that out.
No user documentation yet ... mmoncure has promised to write some.
Thanks to Abhijit Menon-Sen for creating a first draft to work from.
oversight in original implementation of VALUES. Also fix an oversight
in recent addition of options to CREATE TABLE AS: they weren't getting
propagated if the query was a set-operation such as UNION.
the table being analyzed. This prevents two ANALYZEs from running
concurrently on the same table and possibly suffering concurrent-update
failures while trying to store their results into pg_statistic. The
downside is that a database-wide ANALYZE executed within a transaction
block will hold ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on many tables simultaneously,
which could lead to concurrency issues or even deadlock against another
such ANALYZE. However, this seems a corner case of less importance
than getting unexpected errors from a foreground ANALYZE when autovacuum
elects to analyze the same table concurrently. Per discussion.
after an error during VACUUM. We have a PG_TRY block anyway around the only
call sites, so just reset it in the CATCH clause instead of having
AtEOXact_Buffers blindly do it during xact end. I think the old code was
actively wrong for the case of a failure during ANALYZE inside a
subtransaction --- the flag wouldn't get cleared until main transaction end.
Probably not worth back-patching though.

a schema is our own temp schema or another backend's temp schema, and use
these in place of some former kluges in information_schema. Per my
proposal of yesterday.
an earlier discussion. Centralize assumptions about what libpq depends
on in one place in Makefile.global. I am unconvinced that this list
is complete, but since ecpg seems to have gotten along with just these
entries, we'll try it this way and see what happens.
we probably should make them work reliably for all arrays. Fix code
to handle NULLs and multidimensional arrays, move it into arrayfuncs.c.
GIN is still restricted to indexing arrays with no null elements, however.
agreed these symbols are less easily confused. I made new pg_operator
entries (with new OIDs) for the old names, so as to provide backward
compatibility while making it pretty easy to remove the old names in
some future release cycle. This commit only touches the core datatypes,
contrib will be fixed separately.

than being equivalent to setting log_min_duration_statement to zero, this
option now forces logging of all query durations, but doesn't force logging
of query text. Also, add duration logging coverage for fastpath function
calls.
proposal. Parameter logging works even for binary-format parameters, and
logging overhead is avoided when disabled.
log_statement = all output for the src/test/examples/testlibpq3.c example
now looks like
LOG: statement: execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1
DETAIL: parameters: $1 = 'joe''s place'
LOG: statement: execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4
DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '2'
and log_min_duration_statement = 0 results in
LOG: duration: 2.431 ms parse <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1
LOG: duration: 2.335 ms bind <unnamed> to <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1
DETAIL: parameters: $1 = 'joe''s place'
LOG: duration: 0.394 ms execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1
DETAIL: parameters: $1 = 'joe''s place'
LOG: duration: 1.251 ms parse <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4
LOG: duration: 0.566 ms bind <unnamed> to <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4
DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '2'
LOG: duration: 0.173 ms execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4
DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '2'
(This example demonstrates the folly of ignoring parse/bind steps for duration
logging purposes, BTW.)
Along the way, create a less ad-hoc mechanism for determining which commands
are logged by log_statement = mod and log_statement = ddl. The former coding
was actually missing quite a few things that look like ddl to me, and it
did not handle EXECUTE or extended query protocol correctly at all.
This commit does not do anything about the question of whether log_duration
should be removed or made less redundant with log_min_duration_statement.
that has parameters is always planned afresh for each Bind command,
treating the parameter values as constants in the planner. This removes
the performance penalty formerly often paid for using out-of-line
parameters --- with this definition, the planner can do constant folding,
LIKE optimization, etc. After a suggestion by Andrew@supernews.
can create or modify rules for the table. Do setRuleCheckAsUser() while
loading rules into the relcache, rather than when defining a rule. This
ensures that permission checks for tables referenced in a rule are done with
respect to the current owner of the rule's table, whereas formerly ALTER TABLE
OWNER would fail to update the permission checking for associated rules.
Removal of separate RULE privilege is needed to prevent various scenarios
in which a grantee of RULE privilege could effectively have any privilege
of the table owner. For backwards compatibility, GRANT/REVOKE RULE is still
accepted, but it doesn't do anything. Per discussion here:
