Thanks to Bruce for spotting it and Tom Lane for diagnosing it.
Since horology test output is changing anyway, add some date/time input
tests to horology.sql. Some of these should move to the tests for the
individual data types, and we perhaps should add an entire new test
for "timezone" to allow manipulating the current time zone without
risking damage to the results of other tests.
macros, but only at explicit CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() calls. Not clear
whether overenthusiastic acceptance of interrupts accounts for any real
bugs, but it definitely seems risky and unnecessary.
cases which should have worked but did not.
Now supports julian day (J2452271), ISO time labels (T040506) and various
combinations of spaces and run-togethers of dates, times, and time zones.
All regression tests pass, and I have more tests to add after the 7.2
release (don't want to require changes to the ancillary horology result
files until after then).
set-returning functions in its target list. This ensures that we
won't rewrite the query in a way that places set-returning functions
into quals (WHERE clauses). Cf. bug reports from Joe Conway.
to use and significantly faster. This tweak saves 25% (!) of the runtime
of COPY IN in a test with 8000-character lines. I wouldn't normally
commit a performance improvement this late in the cycle, but 25% got
my attention...
This seems the right thing for most usages, but I notice two places
where it is the wrong thing. One is that the default permissions on
TOAST rels should be no-access, not world-readable; the other is that
PrepareForTupleInvalidation doesn't really need to spend time looking
at tuples of TOAST relations.
int8, int16, int32, int64 and separately uint8, uint16, uint32, uint64
The previous patch grouped:
int8, int16 and int32
uint8, uint16 and uint32
int64 and uint64 <-- this grouping is wrong on AIX 4.3.3 and below
If you prefer to make 4 groups out of this you could apply this patch.

should be accounted for in the PROC_SEM_MAP_ENTRIES() macro. Otherwise
the ports that rely on this macro to size data structures are broken.
Mea culpa.
to the target list in gram.y; it must wait till after expansion of the
target list in analyze.c. Per bug report 4-Nov:
lx=# CREATE TABLE abc (a char, b char, c char);
CREATE
lx=# CREATE TABLE xyz (x, y, z) AS SELECT * FROM abc;
ERROR: CREATE TABLE/AS SELECT has mismatched column count
so that only one signal number is used not three. Flags in shared
memory tell the reason(s) for the current signal. This method is
extensible to handle more signal reasons without chewing up even more
signal numbers, but the immediate reason is to keep pg_pwd reloads
separate from SIGHUP processing in the postmaster.
Also clean up some problems in the postmaster with delayed response to
checkpoint status changes --- basically, it wouldn't schedule a checkpoint
if it wasn't getting connection requests on a regular basis.
postmaster children before client auth step. Postmaster now rereads
pg_pwd on receipt of SIGHUP, the same way that pg_hba.conf is handled.
No cycles need be expended to validate password cache validity during
connection startup.
recreated since the start of our transaction, our first reference to it
errored out because we'd try to reuse our old relcache entry for it.
Do this by accepting SI inval messages just before relcache search in
heap_openr, so that dead relcache entries will be flushed before we
search. Also, break heap_open/openr into two pairs of routines,
relation_open(r) and heap_open(r). The relation_open routines make
no tests on relkind and so can be used to open anything that has a
pg_class entry. The heap_open routines are wrappers that add a relkind
test to preserve their established behavior. Use the relation_open
routines in several places that had various kluge solutions for opening
rels that might be either heap or index rels.
Also, remove the old 'heap stats' code that's been superseded by Jan's
stats collector, and clean up some inconsistencies in error reporting
between the different types of ALTER TABLE.
from Philip Warner. Side effect of change is that GROUP BY expressions
will not be re-evaluated at multiple plan levels anymore, whereas this
sometimes happened with old code.
per suggestion from Peter. Simplify several APIs by transmitting the
original argv location directly from main.c to ps_status.c, instead of
passing it down through several levels of subroutines.
Modified the parser and the SET handlers to use full Node structures
rather than simply a character string argument.
Implement INTERVAL() YEAR TO MONTH (etc) syntax per SQL99.
Does not yet accept the goofy string format that goes along with, but
this should be fairly straight forward to fix now as a bug or later
as a feature.
Implement precision for the INTERVAL() type.
Use the typmod mechanism for both of INTERVAL features.
Fix the INTERVAL syntax in the parser:
opt_interval was in the wrong place.
INTERVAL is now a reserved word, otherwise we get reduce/reduce errors.
Implement an explicit date_part() function for TIMETZ.
Should fix coersion problem with INTERVAL reported by Peter E.
Fix up some error messages for date/time types.
Use all caps for type names within message.
Fix recently introduced side-effect bug disabling 'epoch' as a recognized
field for date_part() etc. Reported by Peter E. (??)
Bump catalog version number.
Rename "microseconds" current transaction time field
from ...Msec to ...Usec. Duh!
date/time regression tests updated for reference platform, but a few
changes will be necessary for others.
clause being added to a particular restriction-clause list is redundant
with those already in the list. This avoids useless work at runtime,
and (perhaps more importantly) keeps the selectivity estimation routines
from generating too-small estimates of numbers of output rows.
Also some minor improvements in OPTIMIZER_DEBUG displays.
Enabling this feature adds very light overhead of 1 select from pg_class on
first using of pl/tcl in backend if unknown suppport is really unused.
But pl/tcl with this support has very improved functionality.
Patch includes changes to documentation.
