Andrew Dunstan a37422e042 Increase amount of shared buffers initdb tries to allocate to 4000,
and add logic to try max_fsm_pages up to 200000, plus accompanying minor
docs changes.

Bruce Momjian a598385f3b Our code had:
if (c == '\\' && cstate->line_buf.len == 0)

The problem with that is the because of the input and _output_
buffering, cstate->line_buf.len could be zero even if we are not on the
first character of a line.  In fact, for a typical line, it is zero for
all characters on the line.  The proper solution is to introduce a
boolean, first_char_in_line, that we set as we enter the loop and clear
once we process a character.

I have restructured the line-reading code in copy.c by:

        o  merging the CSV/non-CSV functions into a single function
        o  used macros to centralize and clarify the buffering code
        o  updated comments
        o  renamed client_encoding_only to encoding_embeds_ascii
        o  added a high-bit test to the encoding_embeds_ascii test for
           performance
        o  in CSV mode, allow a backslash followed by a non-period to
           continue being processed as a data value

There should be no performance impact from this patch because it is
functionally equivalent.  If you apply the patch you will see copy.c is
much clearer in this area now and might suggest additional
optimizations.

I have also attached a 8.1-only patch to fix the CSV \. handling bug
with no code restructuring.

Bruce Momjian 5c9a46f605 Add:
* %Make row-wise comparisons work per SQL spec

  Right now, '(a, b) < (1, 2)' is processed as 'a < 1 and b < 2', but
  the SQL standard requires it to be processed as a column-by-column
  comparison, so the proper comparison is '(a < 1) OR (a = 1 AND b < 2)'.

Neil Conway 97e1535fba Various cosmetic code cleanup for PL/Python:
- use "bool" rather than "int" for boolean variables

- use "PLy_malloc" rather than "malloc" in two places

- define "PLy_strdup", and use it rather than malloc() + strcpy() in
  two places (which should have been memcpy(), anyway).

- remove a bunch of redundant parentheses from expressions that do not
  need the parentheses for code clarity

Bruce Momjian 261114a23f I have added these macros to c.h:
#define HIGHBIT                 (0x80)
        #define IS_HIGHBIT_SET(ch)      ((unsigned char)(ch) & HIGHBIT)

and removed CSIGNBIT and mapped it uses to HIGHBIT.  I have also added
uses for IS_HIGHBIT_SET where appropriate.  This change is
purely for code clarity.

Tom Lane 936d43d842 Fix make_relative_path() to support cases where target_path and bin_path
differ by more than the last directory component.  Instead of insisting
that they match up to the last component, accept whatever common prefix
they have, and try to replace the non-matching part of bin_path with
the non-matching part of target_path in the actual executable's path.
In one way this is tighter than the old code, because it insists on
a match to the part of bin_path we want to substitute for, rather than
blindly stripping one directory component from the executable's path.
Per gripe from Martin Pitt and subsequent discussion.

Tom Lane 656beff590 Adjust string comparison so that only bitwise-equal strings are considered
equal: if strcoll claims two strings are equal, check it with strcmp, and
sort according to strcmp if not identical.  This fixes inconsistent
behavior under glibc's hu_HU locale, and probably under some other locales
as well.  Also, take advantage of the now-well-defined behavior to speed up
texteq, textne, bpchareq, bpcharne: they may as well just do a bitwise
comparison and not bother with strcoll at all.

NOTE: affected databases may need to REINDEX indexes on text columns to be
sure they are self-consistent.

Tom Lane e3b9852728 Teach planner how to rearrange join order for some classes of OUTER JOIN.
Per my recent proposal.  I ended up basing the implementation on the
existing mechanism for enforcing valid join orders of IN joins --- the
rules for valid outer-join orders are somewhat similar.
