for sure...). Rather than relying on the query context of a rangetable
entry to identify what permissions it wants checked, store a full AclMode
mask in each RTE, and check exactly those bits. This allows an RTE
specifying, say, INSERT privilege on a view to be copied into a derived
UPDATE query without changing meaning. Per recent discussion thread.
initdb forced due to change of stored rule representation.
incorrect permissions checking, but in fact disabled most all permissions
checks for view updates. This corrects problems reported by Sergey
Yatskevich among others, at the cost of re-introducing the problem
previously reported by Tim Burgess. However, since we'd lived with that
problem for quite awhile without knowing it, we can live with it awhile
longer until a proper fix can be made in 7.5.
intended to allow application authors to insulate themselves from
changes to the default value of 'default_with_oids' in future releases
of PostgreSQL.
This patch also fixes a bug in the earlier implementation of the
'default_with_oids' GUC variable: code in gram.y should not examine
the value of GUC variables directly due to synchronization issues.
variables, not just simple variables. This was foreseen in the original
coding of this routine, but not implemented until now. Responds to
performance gripe from Laurent Perez.
'simple' references another view that is not simple. Must recheck
conditions after performing recursive pullup. Per example from

ignore SIGPIPE from send() in libpq, but terminate on any other SIGPIPE,
unless the user installs their own signal handler.
This is a minor fix because the only time you get SIGPIPE from libpq's
send() is when the backend dies.
predicate tester. It can now deal with commuted clauses (for
instance, 4 < x implies x > 3), subclauses more complicated than
a simple Var (for example, upper(x) = 't' implies upper(x) > 'a'),
and <> operators (for example, x < 3 implies x <> 4). Still
only understands operators associated with btree opclasses, though.
Inspired by example from Martin Hampl.
pointer type when it is not necessary to do so.
For future reference, casting NULL to a pointer type is only necessary
when (a) invoking a function AND either (b) the function has no prototype
OR (c) the function is a varargs function.
