Studio 2005. Basically MS defined errcode in the headers with a typedef,
so we have to #define it out of the way.
While at it, fix a function declaration in plpython that didn't match
the implementation (volatile missing).

and standard_conforming_strings; likewise for the other client programs
that need it. As per previous discussion, a pg_dump dump now conforms
to the standard_conforming_strings setting of the source database.
We don't use E'' syntax in the dump, thereby improving portability of
the SQL. I added a SET escape_strings_warning = off command to keep
the dumps from getting a lot of back-chatter from that.
'off'. This allows pg_dump output with standard_conforming_strings =
'on' to generate proper strings that can be loaded into other databases
without the backslash doubling we typically do. I have added the
dumping of the standard_conforming_strings value to pg_dump.
I also added standard backslash handling for plpgsql.
If a process abandons a wait in LockBufferForCleanup (in practice,
only happens if someone cancels a VACUUM) just before someone else
sends it a signal indicating the buffer is available, it was possible
for the wakeup to remain in the process' semaphore, causing misbehavior
next time the process waited for an lmgr lock. Rather than try to
prevent the race condition directly, it seems best to make the lock
manager robust against leftover wakeups, by having it repeat waiting
on the semaphore if the lock has not actually been granted or denied
yet.
MemSet on AIX by setting MEMSET_LOOP_LIMIT to zero.
Add optimization to skip MemSet tests in MEMSET_LOOP_LIMIT == 0 case and
just call memset() directly.

uses for IS_HIGHBIT_SET where appropriate. This change is
purely for code clarity.
functionality, but I still need to make another pass looking at places
that incidentally use arrays (such as ACL manipulation) to make sure they
are null-safe. Contrib needs work too.
I have not changed the behaviors that are still under discussion about
array comparison and what to do with lower bounds.
checked that the pointer is actually word-aligned. Casting a non-aligned
pointer to int32* is technically illegal per the C spec, and some recent
versions of gcc actually generate bad code for the memset() when given
such a pointer. Per report from Andrew Morrow.
and pg_auth_members. There are still many loose ends to finish in this
patch (no documentation, no regression tests, no pg_dump support for
instance). But I'm going to commit it now anyway so that Alvaro can
make some progress on shared dependencies. The catalog changes should
be pretty much done.
transaction IDs, rather than like subtrans; in particular, the information
now survives a database restart. Per previous discussion, this is
essential for PITR log shipping and for 2PC.
memset() or MemSet() to a char *. For one, memset()'s first argument is
a void *, and further void * can be implicitly coerced to/from any other
pointer type.
to eliminate unnecessary deadlocks. This commit adds SELECT ... FOR SHARE
paralleling SELECT ... FOR UPDATE. The implementation uses a new SLRU
data structure (managed much like pg_subtrans) to represent multiple-
transaction-ID sets. When more than one transaction is holding a shared
lock on a particular row, we create a MultiXactId representing that set
of transactions and store its ID in the row's XMAX. This scheme allows
an effectively unlimited number of row locks, just as we did before,
while not costing any extra overhead except when a shared lock actually
has to be shared. Still TODO: use the regular lock manager to control
the grant order when multiple backends are waiting for a row lock.

change saves a great deal of space in pg_proc and its primary index,
and it eliminates the former requirement that INDEX_MAX_KEYS and
FUNC_MAX_ARGS have the same value. INDEX_MAX_KEYS is still embedded
in the on-disk representation (because it affects index tuple header
size), but FUNC_MAX_ARGS is not. I believe it would now be possible
to increase FUNC_MAX_ARGS at little cost, but haven't experimented yet.
There are still a lot of vestigial references to FUNC_MAX_ARGS, which
I will clean up in a separate pass. However, getting rid of it
altogether would require changing the FunctionCallInfoData struct,
and I'm not sure I want to buy into that.
Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the

picked up the right entries ...
Given that PostgreSQL will output a message complaining about it's
absence if you're using SSL mode, I feel it's important that it gets a
mention in the documentation at some point.

as per recent discussions. Invent SubTransactionIds that are managed like
CommandIds (ie, counter is reset at start of each top transaction), and
use these instead of TransactionIds to keep track of subtransaction status
in those modules that need it. This means that a subtransaction does not
need an XID unless it actually inserts/modifies rows in the database.
Accordingly, don't assign it an XID nor take a lock on the XID until it
tries to do that. This saves a lot of overhead for subtransactions that
are only used for error recovery (eg plpgsql exceptions). Also, arrange
to release a subtransaction's XID lock as soon as the subtransaction
exits, in both the commit and abort cases. This avoids holding many
unique locks after a long series of subtransactions. The price is some
additional overhead in XactLockTableWait, but that seems acceptable.
Finally, restructure the state machine in xact.c to have a more orthogonal
set of states for subtransactions.

conversion of basic ASCII letters. Remove all uses of strcasecmp and
strncasecmp in favor of new functions pg_strcasecmp and pg_strncasecmp;
remove most but not all direct uses of toupper and tolower in favor of
pg_toupper and pg_tolower. These functions use the same notions of
case folding already developed for identifier case conversion. I left
the straight locale-based folding in place for situations where we are
just manipulating user data and not trying to match it to built-in
strings --- for example, the SQL upper() function is still locale
dependent. Perhaps this will prove not to be what's wanted, but at
the moment we can initdb and pass regression tests in Turkish locale.
not just MAXALIGN boundaries. This makes a noticeable difference in
the speed of transfers to and from kernel space, at least on recent
Pentiums, and might help other CPUs too. We should look at making
this happen for local buffers and buffile.c too. Patch from Manfred Spraul.

width types and varlena types, since with the introduction of CSTRING as
a more-or-less-real type, these concepts aren't identical. I've tried to
use varlena consistently to denote datatypes with typlen = -1, ie, they
have a length word and are potentially TOASTable; while the term variable
width covers both varlena and cstring (and, perhaps, someday other types
with other rules for computing the actual width). No code changes in this
commit except for renaming a couple macros.

up some problems exposed thereby (broken or missing array types for
some built-in types). Also, clean up loose ends from unknownin/out

looking for places that assume UNKNOWN == TEXT. One of those was the
"SET" type in pg_type.h, which was using textin/textout. This one I took
care of in this patch. The other suspicious place was in
string_to_dataum (which is defined in both selfuncs.c and indxpath.c). I
wasn't too sure about those, so I left them be.

Use "--enable-integer-datetimes" in configuration to use this rather
than the original float8 storage. I would recommend the integer-based
storage for any platform on which it is available. We perhaps should
make this the default for the production release.
Change timezone(timestamptz) results to return timestamp rather than
a character string. Formerly, we didn't have a way to represent
timestamps with an explicit time zone other than freezing the info into
a string. Now, we can reasonably omit the explicit time zone from the
result and return a timestamp with values appropriate for the specified
time zone. Much cleaner, and if you need the time zone in the result
you can put it into a character string pretty easily anyway.
Allow fractional seconds in date/time types even for dates prior to 1BC.
Limit timestamp data types to 6 decimal places of precision. Just right
for a micro-second storage of int8 date/time types, and reduces the
number of places ad-hoc rounding was occuring for the float8-based types.
Use lookup tables for precision/rounding calculations for timestamp and
interval types. Formerly used pow() to calculate the desired value but
with a more limited range there is no reason to not type in a lookup
table. Should be *much* better performance, though formerly there were
some optimizations to help minimize the number of times pow() was called.
Define a HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP variable. Based on the configure option
"--enable-integer-datetimes" and the existing internal INT64_IS_BUSTED.
Add explicit date/interval operators and functions for addition and
subtraction. Formerly relied on implicit type promotion from date to
timestamp with time zone.
Change timezone conversion functions for the timetz type from "timetz()"
to "timezone()". This is consistant with other time zone coersion
functions for other types.
Bump the catalog version to 200204201.
Fix up regression tests to reflect changes in fractional seconds
