include it if it links properly. It seems too risky to assume that
standard functions like pow() are not special-cased by the compiler.
Per report from Andreas Lange that build fails on Solaris cc compiler
with -fast. Even though we don't consider that a supported option,
I'm worried that similar issues will arise with other compilers.
manually release the LDAP handle via ldap_unbind(). This isn't a
significant problem in practice because an error eventually results
in exiting the process, but we can cleanup correctly without too
much pain.
In passing, fix an error in snprintf() usage: the "size" parameter
to snprintf() is the size of the destination buffer, including space
for the NUL terminator. Also, depending on the value of NAMEDATALEN,
the old coding could have allowed for a buffer overflow.
stale relcache init files (pg_internal.init), and there is no mechanism for
updating them during WAL replay. Easiest solution is just to delete the init
files at conclusion of startup, and let the first backend started in each
database take care of rebuilding the init file. Simon Riggs and Tom Lane.
Back-patched to 8.1. Arguably this should be fixed in 8.0 too, but it would
require significantly more code since 8.0 has no handy startup-time scan of
pg_database to piggyback on. Manual solution of the problem is possible
in 8.0 (just delete the pg_internal.init files before starting WAL replay),
so that may be a sufficient answer.
in PITR scenarios. We now WAL-log the replacement of old XIDs with
FrozenTransactionId, so that such replacement is guaranteed to propagate to
PITR slave databases. Also, rather than relying on hint-bit updates to be
preserved, pg_clog is not truncated until all instances of an XID are known to
have been replaced by FrozenTransactionId. Add new GUC variables and
pg_autovacuum columns to allow management of the freezing policy, so that
users can trade off the size of pg_clog against the amount of freezing work
done. Revise the already-existing code that forces autovacuum of tables
approaching the wraparound point to make it more bulletproof; also, revise the
autovacuum logic so that anti-wraparound vacuuming is done per-table rather
than per-database. initdb forced because of changes in pg_class, pg_database,
and pg_autovacuum catalogs. Heikki Linnakangas, Simon Riggs, and Tom Lane.
deletion code to avoid the case where an upper-level btree page remains "half
dead" for a significant period of time, and to block insertions into a key
range that is in process of being re-assigned to the right sibling of the
deleted page's parent. This prevents the scenario reported by Ed L. wherein
index keys could become out-of-order in the grandparent index level.
Since this is a moderately invasive fix, I'm applying it only to HEAD.
The bug exists back to 7.4, but the back branches will get a different patch.
(blobs) with comments, per bug #2727 from Konstantin Pelepelin.
Mea culpa for not having tested this case.
Back-patch to 8.1; prior branches don't dump blob comments at all.
node of a SubLink or SubPlan testexpr field. Bug resulted from replacing
the old lefthand/exprs list fields with a simple expression field, and not
remembering that expression_tree_walker is coded to save a few cycles by
recursing directly to self on list fields (on the assumption the walker
isn't interested in List nodes per se). On non-list fields it must of
course call the walker. Possibly that hack isn't worth the risk of more
such bugs, but I'll leave it be for now. Per bug report from James Robinson.
outer joins. Originally it was only looking for overlap of the righthand
side of a left join, but we have to do it on the lefthand side too.
Per example from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.

that conflict with the OID that we want to use for the new database.
This avoids the risk of trying to remove files that maybe we shouldn't
remove. Per gripe from Jon Lapham and subsequent discussion of 27-Sep.
timezone actually has a daylight-savings rule. This avoids breaking
cases that used to work because they went through the DecodePosixTimezone
code path. Per contrib regression failures (mea culpa for not running
those yesterday...). Also document the already-applied change to allow
GMT offsets up to 14 hours.
input routines. Remove the former "DecodePosixTimezone" function in favor of
letting the zic code handle POSIX-style zone specs (see tzparse()). In
particular this means that "PST+3" now means the same as "-03", whereas it
used to mean "-11" --- the zone abbreviation is effectively just a noise word
in this syntax. Make sure that all named and POSIX-style zone names will be
parsed as a single token. Fix long-standing bogosities in printing and input
of fractional-hour timezone offsets (since the tzparse() code will accept
these, we'd better make 'em work). Also correct an error in the original
coding of the zic-zone-name patch: in "timestamp without time zone" input,
zone names are supposed to be allowed but ignored, but the coding was such
that the zone changed the interpretation anyway.
example SET TIME ZONE 'america/new_york' works now. This seems a good
idea on general user-friendliness grounds, and is part of the solution
to the timestamp-input parsing problems I noted recently.
modules; the first try was not usable in EXEC_BACKEND builds (e.g.,
Windows). Instead, just provide some entry points to increase the
allocation requests during postmaster start, and provide a dedicated
LWLock that can be used to synchronize allocation operations performed
by backends. Per discussion with Marc Munro.
one of the program's core data structures, make use of the existing
ability to selectively exclude TOC items by ID. Slightly more code but
much less likely to create future maintenance problems.
1) pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket(): WaitForMultipleObjectsEx now called with
finite timeout (100ms) in case of FP_WRITE and UDP socket. If timeout occurs
then pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket() tries to write empty packet goes to
WaitForMultipleObjectsEx again.
2) pgwin32_send(): add loop around WSASend and pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket().
The reason is: for overlapped socket, 'ok' result from
pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket() isn't guarantee that socket is still free,
it can become busy again and following WSASend call will fail with
WSAEWOULDBLOCK error.

rows --- if the surrounding query queued any trigger events between the rows,
the events would be fired at the wrong time, leading to bizarre behavior.
Per report from Merlin Moncure.
This is a simple patch that should solve the problem fully in the back
branches, but in HEAD we also need to consider the possibility of queries
with RETURNING clauses. Will look into a fix for that separately.
I introduced in 7.4.1 :-(. It's correct to allow unknown to be coerced to
ANY or ANYELEMENT, since it's a real-enough data type, but it most certainly
isn't an array datatype. This can cause a backend crash but AFAICT is not
exploitable as a security hole. Per report from Michael Fuhr.
Note: as fixed in HEAD, this changes a constant in the pg_stats view,
resulting in a change in the expected regression outputs. The back-branch
patches have been hacked to avoid that, so that pre-existing installations
won't start failing their regression tests.
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.
quote chars inside quote marks, should emit one quote *and stay in inquotes

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.

Also, tweak the code to work properly if someone sets max_stack_depth
to more than 2Gb, which guc.c will allow on a 64-bit machine.
overlapping possible matches for the separator string, such as
string_to_array('123xx456xxx789', 'xx').
Also, revise the logic of replace(), split_part(), and string_to_array()
to avoid O(N^2) work from redundant searches and conversions to pg_wchar
format when there are N matches to the separator string.
Backpatched the full patch as far as 8.0. 7.4 also has the bug, but the
code has diverged a lot, so I just went for a quick-and-dirty fix of the
bug itself in that branch.
been initialized yet. This can happen because there are code paths that call
SysCacheGetAttr() on a tuple originally fetched from a different syscache
(hopefully on the same catalog) than the one specified in the call. It
doesn't seem useful or robust to try to prevent that from happening, so just
improve the function to cope instead. Per bug#2678 from Jeff Trout. The
specific example shown by Jeff is new in 8.1, but to be on the safe side
I'm backpatching 8.0 as well. We could patch 7.x similarly but I think
that's probably overkill, given the lack of evidence of old bugs of this ilk.
remaining functions, simplify pglz_compress's API to not require a useless
data copy when compression fails. Also add a check in pglz_decompress that
the expected amount of data was decompressed.

and in particular offers a much cleaner workaround for the Intel compiler
bug that was affecting ginutil.c.
Buildfarm results from 'gazelle' show that there are indeed libedit
versions for which history.h is a needed header, even though it's
apparently been dropped entirely in other versions. Grumble.
Per Bob Friesenhahn's report, this file is not supplied by some versions
of libedit, and even when it is supplied it seems to be just a link to
readline.h, so we don't need to include it anyway.
Also, ensure that we won't try to use a too-old version of Bison.
The previous coding would bleat but then use it anyway; better to invoke
the 'missing' script if any grammar files need to be rebuilt.

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.
repeatedly. Now that we don't have to worry about memory leaks from
glibc's qsort, we can safely put CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into the tuplesort
comparators, as was requested a couple months ago. Also, get rid of
non-reentrancy and an extra level of function call in tuplesort.c by
providing a variant qsort_arg() API that passes an extra void * argument
through to the comparison routine. (We might want to use that in other
places too, I didn't look yet.)
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.

which turns out to be a dominant part of the runtime in scenarios
involving lots of parse-time warnings (such as Stephen Frost's example
of an INSERT with a lot of backslash-containing strings). There's not

out lots of notice/warning messages, even if they're coming from a loop

present; intervening positions are filled with nulls. This behavior
is required by SQL99 but was not implementable before 8.2 due to lack
of support for nulls in arrays. I have only made it work for the
one-dimensional case, which is all that SQL99 requires. It seems quite
complex to get it right in higher dimensions, and since we never allowed
extension at all in higher dimensions, I think that must count as a
future feature addition not a bug fix.
the SQL spec, viz IS NULL is true if all the row's fields are null, IS NOT
NULL is true if all the row's fields are not null. The former coding got
this right for a limited number of cases with IS NULL (ie, those where it
could disassemble a ROW constructor at parse time), but was entirely wrong
for IS NOT NULL. Per report from Teodor.
I desisted from changing the behavior for arrays, since on closer inspection
it's not clear that there's any support for that in the SQL spec. This
probably needs more consideration.
