Define a new function, GetCurrentTransactionStartTimeUsec() to get the time
to this precision.
Allow now() and timestamp 'now' to use this higher precision result so
we now have fractional seconds in this "constant".
Add timestamp without time zone type.
Move previous timestamp type to timestamp with time zone.
Accept another ISO variant for date/time values: yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss
(note the "T" separating the day from hours information).
Remove 'current' from date/time types; convert to 'now' in input.
Separate time and timetz regression tests.
Separate timestamp and timestamptz regression test.

Here's rev 2 of the bytea string support patch. Changes:
1. Added missing declaration for MatchBytea function
2. Added PQescapeBytea to fe-exec.c
3. Applies cleanly on cvs tip from this afternoon
I'm hoping that someone can review/approve/apply this before beta starts, so
I guess I'd vote (not that it counts for much) to delay beta a few days :-)

Fixed.
I found new bug in command/variable.c in parse_client_encoding(), nobody
probably never see this error:
if (pg_set_client_encoding(encoding))
{
elog(ERROR, "Conversion between %s and %s is not supported",
value, GetDatabaseEncodingName());
}
because pg_set_client_encoding() returns -1 for error and 0 as true.
It's fixed too.
IMHO it can be apply.

for speed reasons; its result type also changes to int8. avg() on these
datatypes now accumulates the running sum in int8 for speed; but we still
deliver the final result as numeric, so that fractional accuracy is
preserved.
count() now counts and returns in int8, not int4. I am a little nervous
about this possibly breaking users' code, but there didn't seem to be
a strong sentiment for avoiding the problem. If we get complaints during
beta, we can change count back to int4 and add a "count8" aggregate.
For that matter, users can do it for themselves with a simple CREATE
AGGREGATE command; the int4inc function is still present, so no C hacking
is needed.
Also added max() and min() aggregates for OID that do proper unsigned
comparison, instead of piggybacking on int4 aggregates.
initdb forced.
Note: I didn't force an initdb, figuring that one today was enough.
However, there is a new function in pg_proc.h, and pg_dump won't be
able to dump partial indexes until you add that function.
IS TRUE, etc, with some degree of verisimilitude. Split out
selectivity support functions from builtins.h into a new header

must depend on. Fix a few missing inclusions exposed thereby.

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.
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.

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.

clause with an alias is a <subquery> and therefore hides table references
appearing within it, according to the spec. This is the same as the
preliminary patch I posted to pgsql-patches yesterday, plus some really
grotty code in ruleutils.c to reverse-list a query tree with the correct
alias name depending on context. I'd rather not have done that, but unless
we want to force another initdb for 7.1, there's no other way for now.
recommendation from Paul Vixie. Add a new abbrev() function to produce
abbreviated format as text. No forced initdb, but new function is not
available unless you do an initdb or add the pg_proc row manually.
varlena type. (I did not force initdb, but you won't see the fix
unless you do one.) Also, make sure all index support operators and
functions are careful not to leak memory for toasted inputs; I had
missed some hash and rtree support ops on this point before.
re-adopt these settings at every postmaster or standalone-backend startup.
This should fix problems with indexes becoming corrupt due to failure to
provide consistent locale environment for postmaster at all times. Also,
refuse to start up a non-locale-enabled compilation in a database originally
initdb'd with a non-C locale. Suppress LIKE index optimization if locale
is not "C" or "POSIX" (are there any other locales where it's safe?).
Issue NOTICE during initdb if selected locale disables LIKE optimization.
rather than just being aliases for int4in/int4out. Give type Oid a
full set of comparison operators that do proper unsigned comparison,
instead of reusing the int4 comparators. Since pg_dump is now doing
unsigned comparisons of OIDs, it is now *necessary* that we play by
the rules here. In fact, given that btoidcmp() has been doing unsigned
comparison for quite some time, it seems likely that we have index-
corruption problems in 7.0 and before once the Oid counter goes past
2G. Fixing these operators is a necessary step before we can think
about 8-byte Oid, too.
functions, per recent discussions on pghackers. For now, I have called
the verbose-display formatting function text(), but will reconsider if
enough people object.
initdb forced.
There is still no effective difference but it will kick in once setuid
functions exist (not included here). Make old getpgusername() alias for
current_user.
quote_ident(text) returns text
quote_literal(text) returns text
These are handy to build up properly quoted query strings
for the new PL/pgSQL EXECUTE functionality to submit
dynamic DDL statements.

length is < TOAST_TUPLE_THRESHOLD, even with toastable column types
present. For example, CREATE TABLE foo (f1 int, f2 varchar(100))
does not require a toast table, even though varchar is a toastable
type.
for example, an SQL function can be used in a functional index. (I make
no promises about speed, but it'll work ;-).) Clean up and simplify
handling of functions returning sets.
rather than the "~~" operator; this made it easy to add ESCAPE features.
Implement ILIKE, NOT ILIKE, and the ESCAPE clause for them.
afaict this is not MultiByte clean, but lots of other stuff isn't either.
Fix up underlying support code for LIKE/NOT LIKE.
Things should be faster and does not require internal string copying.
Update regression test to add explicit checks for
LIKE/NOT LIKE/ILIKE/NOT ILIKE.
Remove colon and semi-colon operators as threatened in 7.0.
Implement SQL99 COMMIT/AND NO CHAIN.
Throw elog(ERROR) on COMMIT/AND CHAIN per spec
since we don't yet support it.
Implement SQL99 CREATE/DROP SCHEMA as equivalent to CREATE DATABASE.
This is only a stopgap or demo since schemas will have another
implementation soon.
Remove a few unused production rules to get rid of warnings
which crept in on the last commit.
Fix up tabbing in some places by removing embedded spaces.
on myself to do something about the non-self-consistency of the inet
comparison functions. The results are probably still semantically wrong
(inet and cidr should have different comparison semantics, I think)
but at least the boolean operators now agree with each other and with
the sort order of indexes on inet/cidr.
At this point I think it'd be possible to make float4 be pass-by-value
without too much work --- and float8 too on machines where Datum is
8 bytes. Something to try when the mood strikes, anyway.
(Sorry, couldn't help it...)
Removed type filename as well, since it's unused and probably useless.
INITDB FORCED, because pg_rewrite columns are now plain text again.
I did not force. I marked numeric as compressable-but-not-move-off-able,
partly to test that storage mode and partly because I've got doubts
that numerics are large enough to need external storage.
There's now only one transition value and transition function.
NULL handling in aggregates is a lot cleaner. Also, use Numeric
accumulators instead of integer accumulators for sum/avg on integer
datatypes --- this avoids overflow at the cost of being a little slower.
Implement VARIANCE() and STDDEV() aggregates in the standard backend.
Also, enable new LIKE selectivity estimators by default. Unrelated
change, but as long as I had to force initdb anyway...
backend functions via backend PQexec(). The SPI interface has long
been our only documented way to do this, and the backend pqexec/portal
code is unused and suffering bit-rot. I'm putting it out of its misery.
