Tom Lane d7e4fd99e5 Fix bug introduced into indexable_outerrelids() by an ill-considered
"optimization".  When we find a potentially useful joinclause, we
have to add all its other required_relids to the result, not only the
other clause_relids.  They are different in the case of a joinclause
whose applicability has to be postponed due to outer join.  We have
to include the extra rels because otherwise, after best_inner_indexscan
masks the join rels with index_outer_relids, it will always fail to
find the joinclause as applicable.  Per report from Husam Tomeh.

Tom Lane 08817bdb76 Adjust GiST error messages to conform to message style guidelines. 2005-09-22 18:49:45 +00:00
Tom Lane a453951dd9 Take exclusive buffer lock in scan_heap() to eliminate some corner cases
in which invalid page data could be transiently written to disk by
concurrent bgwriter activity.  There doesn't seem any risk of loss of
actual user data, but an empty page could possibly be left corrupt if a
crash occurs before the correct data gets written out.  Pointed out by
Alvaro Herrera.

Bruce Momjian 4f915cd377 This patch cleans up the access to members of ItemIdData.

Tom Lane 1128f55659 Fix postgresql.conf lexer to accept doubled single quotes in literal
strings.  This is consistent with SQL conventions, and since Bruce
already changed initdb in a way that assumed it worked like this, seems
we'd better make it work like this.
