Tom Lane c9499e68da has_table_privilege functions from Joe Conway (with some kibitzing from
Tom Lane).  For the moment, only the OID/name variants are provided.
I didn't force initdb, but the additions to the 'privileges' regress
test won't pass until you do one.

Tom Lane 1a6bb6d877 Allow a non-superuser database owner to vacuum all tables in his
database, including system catalogs (but not the shared catalogs,
since they don't really belong to his database).  This is per recent
mailing list discussion.  Clean up some other code that also checks
for database ownerness by introducing a test function is_dbadmin().

Bruce Momjian f21e3407e6 Fix for duplicate oids just introduced in patch. Don't think it needs
initdb unless you are using inet types.

Bruce Momjian d4a4d4c326 Attached is a patch adding following functions:
inet(text), cidr(text): convert a text value into inet/cidr
set_masklen(inet): set masklen on the inet value

Patch also contains regression checks for these functions.

Tom Lane 2938eec7fe Extend GUC concepts of parse_hook and assign_hook to all four supported
datatypes, not only strings.  parse_hook is useless for bool, I suppose,
but it seems possibly useful for int and double to apply variable-specific
constraints that are more complex than simple range limits.  assign_hook
is definitely useful for all datatypes --- we need it right now for bool
to support date cache reset when changing Australian timezone rule setting.
Also, clean up some residual problems with the reset all/show all patch,
including memory leaks and mistaken reset of PostPortNumber.  It seems
best that RESET ALL not touch variables that don't have SUSET or
USERSET context.

Tom Lane 2a06b3bdfd Repair problem with multi-action rules in combination with any nontrivial
manipulation of rtable/jointree by planner.  Rewriter was generating
actions that shared rtable/jointree substructure, which caused havoc
when planner got to the later actions that it'd already mucked up.

Bruce Momjian 58c909bb8d OK -- here's take #5.
It "make"s and "make check"s clean against current cvs tip.

There are now both Text and Name variants, and the regression test support
is rolled into the patch. Note that to be complete wrt Name based variants,
there are now 12 user visible versions of has_table_privilege:

has_table_privilege(Text usename, Text relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Text usename, Name relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Name usename, Text relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Name usename, Name relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Text relname, Text priv_type) /* assumes current_user */
has_table_privilege(Name relname, Text priv_type) /* assumes current_user */
has_table_privilege(Text usename, Oid reloid, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Name usename, Oid reloid, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Oid reloid, Text priv_type)  /* assumes current_user */
has_table_privilege(Oid usesysid, Text relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Oid usesysid, Name relname, Text priv_type)
has_table_privilege(Oid usesysid, Oid reloid, Text priv_type)

For the Text based inputs, a new internal function, get_Name is used
(shamelessly copied from get_seq_name in sequence.c) to downcase if not
quoted, or remove quotes if quoted, and truncate. I also added a few test
cases for the downcasing, quote removal, and Name based variants to the
regression test.

Bruce Momjian 13a52c1f03 I installed postgres 7.1 with --enable-odbc. I then installed
tclodbc (http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclodbc) and libiodbc-2.50.3
(http://www.iodbc.org/dist/libiodbc-2.50.3.tar.gz).  I could not
get either to work... postgres would not find the global odbcinst.ini
file.  I traced this to src/interfaces/odbc/gpps.c -- here are the
many things I think are wrong:

Run tclodbc and do a ``database db <DSNname>'' where ``DSNname'' is
one of the DSN's in /usr/local/etc/odbcinst.ini (or wherever the
global ini file is installed.)  The result is always the error
message that ``one of server,port,database,etc. are missing''.

Run libiodbc-2.50.3/samples/odbctest <DSNname>.  The command fails
to connect to the database and just exits.

Tom Lane 1d584f97b9 Clean up various to-do items associated with system indexes:
pg_database now has unique indexes on oid and on datname.
pg_shadow now has unique indexes on usename and on usesysid.
pg_am now has unique index on oid.
pg_opclass now has unique index on oid.
pg_amproc now has unique index on amid+amopclaid+amprocnum.
Remove pg_rewrite's unnecessary index on oid, delete unused RULEOID syscache.
Remove index on pg_listener and associated syscache for performance reasons
(caching rows that are certain to change before you need 'em again is
rather pointless).
Change pg_attrdef's nonunique index on adrelid into a unique index on
adrelid+adnum.

Fix various incorrect settings of pg_class.relisshared, make that the
primary reference point for whether a relation is shared or not.
IsSharedSystemRelationName() is now only consulted to initialize relisshared
during initial creation of tables and indexes.  In theory we might now
support shared user relations, though it's not clear how one would get
entries for them into pg_class &etc of multiple databases.

Fix recently reported bug that pg_attribute rows created for an index all have
the same OID.  (Proof that non-unique OID doesn't matter unless it's
actually used to do lookups ;-))

There's no need to treat pg_trigger, pg_attrdef, pg_relcheck as bootstrap
relations.  Convert them into plain system catalogs without hardwired
entries in pg_class and friends.

Unify global.bki and template1.bki into a single init script postgres.bki,
since the alleged distinction between them was misleading and pointless.
Not to mention that it didn't work for setting up indexes on shared
system relations.

Rationalize locking of pg_shadow, pg_group, pg_attrdef (no need to use
AccessExclusiveLock where ExclusiveLock or even RowExclusiveLock will do).
Also, hold locks until transaction commit where necessary.

Bruce Momjian 92f450652c The attached patch enables PostgreSQL CVS to build cleanly under Cygwin
when built against readline 4.2.  Specifically, it handles the deprecation
of

    filename_completion_function()

with preference for

    rl_filename_completion_function()

Although, I was motivated by Cygwin support, IMO this patch is appropriate
for all platforms.  To quote from the readline source:

    #if 0
    /* Backwards compatibility (compat.c).  These will go away sometime. */
    ...
    extern READLINE_EXPORT(char, *filename_completion_function) ...
    #endif

Note that this patch is modeled after the one by Peter Eisentraut for
completion_matches():

    http://www.ca.postgresql.org/~petere/readline42.html
I tested this patch under the following environments:

    Cygwin with readline 4.1
    Cygwin with readline 4.2
    Linux with readline 2.2.1
    Linux with readline 4.2

and it behaved as expected.

Bruce Momjian 8af0ea9dc1 Got two patches that were found by folks on the Castor list, that we'd like to
submit.  These were done for the jdbc2 driver.  The first one is for support
of the Types.BIT in the PreparedStatement class.  The following lines need to be
inserted in the switch statment, at around line 530:


	(Prepared statment, line 554, before the default: switch
	case Types.BIT:
	     if (x instanceof Boolean) {
	          set(parameterIndex, ((Boolean)x).booleanValue() ? "TRUE" : "FALSE");
	     } else {
	          throw new PSQLException("postgresql.prep.type");
	     }
	     break;


	The second one is dealing with blobs,

	inserted in PreparedStatemant.java (After previous patch line, 558):
	         case Types.BINARY:
	         case Types.VARBINARY:
	                              setObject(parameterIndex,x);
	                              break;
	and in ResultSet.java (Around line 857):
	        case Types.BINARY:
	        case Types.VARBINARY:
	                        return getBytes(columnIndex);

Peter Eisentraut 7ceed2a9b5 Allow GRANT/REVOKE to/from more than one user per invocation. Command tag
for GRANT/REVOKE is now just that, not "CHANGE".

On the way, migrate some of the aclitem internal representation away from
the parser and build a real parse tree instead.  Also add some 'const'
qualifiers.

Tom Lane bdadc9bf1c Remove RelationGetBufferWithBuffer(), which is horribly confused about
appropriate pin-count manipulation, and instead use ReleaseAndReadBuffer.
Make use of the fact that the passed-in buffer (if there is one) must
be pinned to avoid grabbing the bufmgr spinlock when we are able to
return this same buffer.  Eliminate unnecessary 'previous tuple' and
'next tuple' fields of HeapScanDesc and IndexScanDesc, thereby removing
a whole lot of bookkeeping from heap_getnext() and related routines.
