for pg_stop_backup. First, it is possible that the history file name is not
alphabetically later than the last WAL file name, so we should explicitly
check that both have been archived. Second, the previous coding would wait
forever if a checkpoint had managed to remove the WAL file before we look for
it.

referenced tables are dumped before the referencing tables. This avoids
failures when the data is loaded with the FK constraints already active.
If no such ordering is possible because of circular or self-referential
constraints, print a NOTICE to warn the user about it.
searching instead of naive matching. In the worst case this has the same
O(M*N) complexity as the naive method, but the worst case is hard to hit,
and the average case is very fast, especially with longer patterns.

for editing if no function name is specified. This seems a much cleaner way
to offer that functionality than the original patch had. In passing,
de-clutter the error displays that are given for a bogus function-name
argument, and standardize on "$function$" as the default delimiter for the
function body. (The original coding would use the shortest possible
dollar-quote delimiter, which seems to create unnecessarily high risk of
later conflicts with the user-modified function body.)
In support of that, create a backend function pg_get_functiondef().
The psql command is functional but maybe a bit rough around the edges...

inserting a materialize node above an inner-side sort node, when the sort is
expected to spill to disk. (The materialize protects the sort from having
to support mark/restore, allowing it to do its final merge pass on-the-fly.)
We neglected to teach cost_mergejoin about that hack, so it was failing to
include the materialize's costs in the estimated cost of the mergejoin.
The materialize's costs are generally going to be pretty negligible in
comparison to the sort's, so this is only a small error and probably not
worth back-patching; but it's still wrong.
In the similar case where a materialize is inserted to protect an inner-side
node that can't do mark/restore at all, it's still true that the materialize
should not spill to disk, and so we should cost it cheaply rather than
expensively.

during parsing. Formerly the parser's stack was allocated with malloc
and so wouldn't be reclaimed; this patch makes it use palloc instead,
so that flushing the current context will reclaim the memory. Per

whenever possible, as per bug report from Oleg Serov. While at it, reorder
the operations in the RECORD case to avoid possible palloc failure while the
variable update is only partly complete.
Back-patch as far as 8.1. Although the code of the particular function is
similar in 8.0, 8.0's support for composite fields in rows is sufficiently
broken elsewhere that it doesn't seem worth fixing this.

the test. Per my report of 2008-08-31.
This could be back-patched but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble.
command id is the cmin, when it can in fact be a combo cid. That made rows
incorrectly invisible to a transaction where a tuple was deleted by multiple
aborted subtransactions.
Report and patch Karl Schnaitter. Back-patch to 8.3, where combo cids was
introduced.

this works better than my original thought of trying to push the code into
an out-of-line subroutine.
clear to me why I'd not seen this message before --- on F-9 it seems to
only happen if Asserts are disabled, which ought to be irrelevant.
Maybe that affects a decision whether to inline get_ten(), which would
be needed to expose the warning condition to the compiler? Anyway,
the fix is clear.
most node types used in expression trees (both before and after parse
analysis). This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations
where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available
beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount
of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually
include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the
work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than
before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as
CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types.
Per my proposal of a few days ago.
when its input is constant and the element coercion function is immutable
(or nonexistent, ie, binary-coercible case). This is an oversight in the
8.3 implementation of ArrayCoerceExpr, and its result is that certain cases
involving IN or NOT IN with constants don't get optimized as they should be.

into nodes/nodeFuncs, so as to reduce wanton cross-subsystem #includes inside
the backend. There's probably more that should be done along this line,
but this is a start anyway.
checks in ExecIndexBuildScanKeys() that were inadequate anyway: it's better
to verify the correct varno on an expected index key, not just reject OUTER
and INNER.
This makes the entire current contents of nodeFuncs.c dead code. I'll be
replacing it with some other stuff later, as per recent proposal.

Remove tuple's killing by killtuple() if tuple was moved to another

Backpatch up to 8.1 because the bug was introduced by GiST's concurrency support.
