columns procost and prorows, to allow simple user adjustment of the estimated
cost of a function call, as well as control of the estimated number of rows
returned by a set-returning function. We might eventually wish to extend this
to allow function-specific estimation routines, but there seems to be
consensus that we should try a simple constant estimate first. In particular
this provides a relatively simple way to control the order in which different
WHERE clauses are applied in a plan node, which is a Good Thing in view of the
fact that the recent EquivalenceClass planner rewrite made that much less
predictable than before.
database privileges from a pre-8.2 server. This ensures that the reloaded
database will maintain the same behavior it had in the previous installation,
ie, everybody has connect privilege. Per gripe from L Bayuk.

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.
in normal operation, and we can avoid rewriting pg_control at every log
segment switch if we don't insist that these values be valid. Reducing
the number of pg_control updates is a good idea for both performance and
reliability. It does make pg_resetxlog's life a bit harder, but that seems
a good tradeoff; and anyway the change to pg_resetxlog amounts to automating
something people formerly needed to do by hand, namely look at the existing
pg_xlog files to make sure the new WAL start point was past them.
In passing, change the wording of xlog.c's "database system was interrupted"
messages: describe the pg_control timestamp as "last known up at" rather than
implying it is the exact time of service interruption. With this change the
timestamp will generally be the time of the last checkpoint, which could be
many minutes before the failure; and we've already seen indications that
people tend to misinterpret the old wording.

(in particular, causing the ReadyForQuery message to be eaten) before
returning from do_copy. The only known consequence of failing to do so is
that get_prompt might show a wrong result for the %x transaction status
escape, as reported by Bernd Helmle; but it's possible there are other issues.
Back-patch as far as 7.4, the oldest version supporting %x.
because on that platform strftime produces localized zone names in varying
encodings. Even though it's only in a comment, this can cause encoding
errors when reloading the dump script. Per suggestion from Andreas
Seltenreich. Also, suppress %Z on Windows in the %s escape of
log_line_prefix ... not sure why this one is different from the other two,
but it shouldn't be.

Mea culpa for not having tested this case.
Back-patch to 8.1; prior branches don't dump blob comments at all.

much less likely to create future maintenance problems.
to process all inclusion switches then all exclusion switches, so that the
behavior is independent of switch ordering.
Use of -T does not cause non-table objects to be suppressed. And
the patterns are now interpreted the same way psql's \d commands do it,
rather than as pure regex commands; this allows for example -t schema.tab
to do what it should have been doing all along. Re-enable the --blobs
switch to do something useful, ie, add back blobs into a dump they were
otherwise suppressed from.
pg_dump as well as psql. Since psql already uses dumputils.c, while there's
not any code sharing in the other direction, this seems the easiest way.
Also, fix misinterpretation of patterns using regex | by adding parentheses
(same bug found previously in similar_escape()). This should be backpatched.

poor documentation of the feature ...
portable long options. But we have had portable long options for a long
time now, so this is obsolete. Now people have added options which *only*
work with -X but not as regular long option, so I'm putting a stop to this:
-X is deprecated; it still works, but it has been removed from the
documentation, and please don't add more of them.
gotten rather thoroughly whacked out by careless recent changes: the
intended ratio between the two was off by a lot, and the minimum number
of shared buffers tried had increased by a lot. Problem exposed by
failures on buildfarm members with smaller SHMMAX values.
1) Make vcbuild actually build the pgevent dll.
2) Change the pgevent DLL file so it doens't specify ordinal for the
functions. You're not supposed to do that. You're actually supposed to
declare them as PRIVATE as well, but mingw doesn't support that. VC++
will throw a warning and not an error though, so we can live with it.

- shared_buffers = 32000kB => 32MB
- temp_buffers = 8000kB => 8MB
- wal_buffers = 8 => 64kB
The code of initdb was a bit modified to write MB-unit values.
Values greater than 8000kB are rounded out to MB.
GUC_UNIT_XBLOCKS is added for wal_buffers. It is like GUC_UNIT_BLOCKS,
but uses XLOG_BLCKSZ instead of BLCKSZ.
Also, I cleaned up the test of GUC_UNIT_* flags in preparation to
add more unit flags in less bits.
