pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.
Remove the 'strategy map' code, which was a large amount of mechanism
that no longer had any use except reverse-mapping from procedure OID to
strategy number. Passing the strategy number to the index AM in the
first place is simpler and faster.
This is a preliminary step in planned support for cross-datatype index
operations. I'm committing it now since the ScanKeyEntryInitialize()
API change touches quite a lot of files, and I want to commit those
changes before the tree drifts under me.
regression=# select 1 from tenk1 ta cross join tenk1 tb for update;
ERROR: no relation entry for relid 3
7.3 said "SELECT FOR UPDATE cannot be applied to a join", which was better
but still wrong, considering that 7.2 took the query just fine. Fix by
making transformForUpdate() ignore JOIN and other special RTE types,
rather than trying to mark them FOR UPDATE. The actual error message now
only appears if you explicitly name the join in FOR UPDATE.
process the command as though it were issued by the object owner.
This prevents creating weird scenarios in which the same privileges
may appear to flow from different sources, and ensures that a superuser
can in fact revoke all privileges if he wants to. In particular this
means that the regression tests work when run by a superuser other than
the original bootstrap userid. Per report from Larry Rosenman.
rule split the query into one INSERT and one UPDATE where the UPDATE
then hit's the just created row without modifying the key fields again.
In this special case, the new key slipped in totally unchecked.

ACL array, and force languages to be treated as owned by the bootstrap
user ID. (pg_language should have a lanowner column, but until it does
this will have to do as a workaround.)
subquery that didn't previously have one. We have traditionally made
the caller of ResolveNew responsible for updating the hasSubLinks flag
of the outermost query, but this fails to account for hasSubLinks in
subqueries. Fix ResolveNew to handle this. We might later want to
change the calling convention of ResolveNew so that it can fix the
outer query too, simplifying callers. But I went with the localized
fix for now. Per bug report from J Smith, 20-Oct-03.
fully search-path-proof yet; also, element_types view did not work for
parameters and result types of functions, because it didn't generate
the object_name for the function the same way the data_type_privileges
view does. While at it, centralize dependencies on INDEX_MAX_KEYS/
FUNC_MAX_ARGS into a function returning setof int, so that it will be
easier to fix information_schema for nonstandard values of these
parameters.
Use pg_get_constraintdef instead of pg_constraint.consrc
Use UNION ALL instread of UNION
Make use of regclass type for getting OID of system catalogs
Add schema qualifications where necessary
Fix typos
memory say 'out of shared memory'; some were doing that and some just
said 'out of memory'. Also add a HINT about increasing max_locks_per_transaction
where relevant, per suggestion from Sean Chittenden. (The former change
does not break the strings freeze; the latter does, but I think it's
worth doing anyway.)
protocol, per report from Igor Shevchenko. NOTIFY thought it could
do its thing if transaction blockState is TBLOCK_DEFAULT, but in
reality it had better check the low-level transaction state is
TRANS_DEFAULT as well. Formerly it was not possible to wait for the
client in a state where the first is true and the second is not ...
but now we can have such a state. Minor cleanup in StartTransaction()
as well.
when the pg_class.relhassubclass value is already correct. This should
avoid most cases of the 'tuple concurrently updated' problem that
Robert Creager recently complained about. Also remove a bunch of dead
code in StoreCatalogInheritance() --- it was still computing the complete
list of direct and indirect inheritance ancestors, though that list has
not been needed since we got rid of the pg_ipl catalog.
