RelOid_pg_class, and transaction locks XactLockTableId. RelId is renamed
to objId.
- LockObject() and UnlockObject() functions created, and their use
sprinkled throughout the code to do descent locking for domains and
types. They accept lock modes AccessShare and AccessExclusive, as we
only really need a 'read' and 'write' lock at the moment. Most locking
cases are held until the end of the transaction.
This fixes the cases Tom mentioned earlier in regards to locking with
Domains. If the patch is good, I'll work on cleaning up issues with

* Add schema, cast, and conversion backslash commands to psql

pg_conversion_is_visible, as it seemed to be missing from the catalogs.
This required me to do no small amount of hacking around in namespace.c

Notes/caveats:
- added regression tests for the new functionality, all
regression tests pass on my machine
- added pg_dump support
- updated PL/PgSQL to support per-statement triggers; didn't
look at the other procedural languages.
- there's (even) more code duplication in trigger.c than there
was previously. Any suggestions on how to refactor the
ExecXXXTriggers() functions to reuse more code would be
welcome -- I took a brief look at it, but couldn't see an
easy way to do it (there are several subtly-different
versions of the code in question)
- updated the documentation. I also took the liberty of
removing a big chunk of duplicated syntax documentation in
the Programmer's Guide on triggers, and moving that
information to the CREATE TRIGGER reference page.
- I also included some spelling fixes and similar small
cleanups I noticed while making the changes. If you'd like
me to split those into a separate patch, let me know.

Nah. I don't think it's worth it: I had forgotten that older versions
should be supported. I just left the code as is and added a
version-specific test.
This patch allows pg_dump to dump correctly local definition of columns.
In particular,
CREATE TABLE p1 (f1 int, f2 int);
CREATE TABLE p2 (f1 int);
CREATE TABLE c () INHERITS (p1, p2);
ALTER TABLE ONLY p1 DROP COLUMN f1;
CREATE TABLE p3 (f1 int);
CREATE TABLE c2 (f1 int) INHERITS (p3);
Will be dumped as
CREATE TABLE p1 (f2 int);
CREATE TABLE p2 (f1 int);
CREATE TABLE c (f1 int) INHERITS (p1, p2);
CREATE TABLE c2 (f1 int) INHERITS (p3);
(Previous version will dump
CREATE TABLE c () INHERITS (p1, p2)
CREATE TABLE c2 () INHERITS (p3) )

be able to do that, but the ability seems to have got lost in the
shuffle). Add a -o nextOID switch for completeness. Improve the
documentation to explain how and why to use these switches.
to be flexible about assignment casts without introducing ambiguity in
operator/function resolution. Introduce a well-defined promotion hierarchy
for numeric datatypes (int2->int4->int8->numeric->float4->float8).
Change make_const to initially label numeric literals as int4, int8, or
numeric (never float8 anymore).
Explicitly mark Func and RelabelType nodes to indicate whether they came
from a function call, explicit cast, or implicit cast; use this to do
reverse-listing more accurately and without so many heuristics.
Explicit casts to char, varchar, bit, varbit will truncate or pad without
raising an error (the pre-7.2 behavior), while assigning to a column without
any explicit cast will still raise an error for wrong-length data like 7.3.
This more nearly follows the SQL spec than 7.2 behavior (we should be
reporting a 'completion condition' in the explicit-cast cases, but we have
no mechanism for that, so just do silent truncation).
Fix some problems with enforcement of typmod for array elements;
it didn't work at all in 'UPDATE ... SET array[n] = foo', for example.
Provide a generalized array_length_coerce() function to replace the
specialized per-array-type functions that used to be needed (and were
missing for NUMERIC as well as all the datetime types).
Add missing conversions int8<->float4, text<->numeric, oid<->int8.

I used StringInfo only in 2 places and both of them are inside debug

compile it here.
vacuumdb itself is not very comfortable to use when the databases have
passwords, because it has to connect once for each table (I can probably
make it connect only once for each database; should I?). Because of
this I added a mention of PGPASSWORDFILE in the documentation, but I
don't know if that is the correct place for that.

with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion. I still want to do some
more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk
of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...
The -n and -N options were removed. Quoting is now smart enough to
supply quotes if and only if necessary.
Numerical types are now printed without quotes, except in cases of
special values such as NaN.
Boolean values printed as true and false.
Most string literals now do not escape whitespace characters (newlines,
etc.) for portability.
SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION argument is a string literal, to follow SQL.
Made commands output by pg_dump use consistent spacing and indentation.
This patch is an updated version of the lock listing patch. I've made
the following changes:
- write documentation
- wrap the SRF in a view called 'pg_locks': all user-level
access should be done through this view
- re-diff against latest CVS
One thing I chose not to do is adapt the SRF to use the anonymous
composite type code from Joe Conway. I'll probably do that eventually,
but I'm not really convinced it's a significantly cleaner way to
bootstrap SRF builtins than the method this patch uses (of course, it
has other uses...)

Thanks.
Attached is a patch against cvs tip as of 8:30 PM PST or so. Turned out
that even after fixing the failed hunks, there was a new spot in
bufmgr.c which needed to be fixed (related to temp relations;
RelationUpdateNumberOfBlocks). But thankfully the regression test code
caught it :-)
Joe Conway
composite type capability makes it possible to create a system view
based on a table function in a way that is hopefully palatable to
everyone. The attached patch takes advantage of this, moving
show_all_settings() from contrib/tablefunc into the backend (renamed
all_settings(). It is defined as a builtin returning type RECORD. During
initdb a system view is created to expose the same information presently
available through SHOW ALL. For example:
test=# select * from pg_settings where name like '%debug%';
name | setting
-----------------------+---------
debug_assertions | on
debug_pretty_print | off
debug_print_parse | off
debug_print_plan | off
debug_print_query | off
debug_print_rewritten | off
wal_debug | 0
(7 rows)
Additionally during initdb two rules are created which make it possible
to change settings by updating the system view -- a "virtual table" as
Tom put it. Here's an example:
Joe Conway
sys = malloc(strlen(editorName) + strlen(fname) + 10 + 1);
if (!sys)
return false;
sprintf(sys, "exec '%s' '%s'", editorName, fname);
(note the added quotes to provide a little protection against spaces
and such). Then it's perfectly obvious what the calculation is doing.
I don't care about wasting 20-some bytes, but confusing readers of the
code is worth avoiding.

code review by Tom Lane. Remaining issues: functions that take or
return tuple types are likely to break if one drops (or adds!)
a column in the table defining the type. Need to think about what
to do here.
Along the way: some code review for recent COPY changes; mark system
columns attnotnull = true where appropriate, per discussion a month ago.
attstattarget to indicate 'use the default'. The default is now a GUC
variable default_statistics_target, and so may be changed on the fly. Along
the way we gain the ability to have pg_dump dump the per-column statistics
target when it's not the default. Patch by Neil Conway, with some kibitzing
from Tom Lane.
this only works against 7.3 or later databases; the pushups required
to do it without regprocedure/regtype/etc seem more trouble than they're
worth, considering that existing users aren't expecting pg_dump support
for this.
a few other things:
* Made all references to the pg_* tables absolute, by specifying
the pg_catalog schema.
* Added SCHEMA as a create/delete completion option.
* Added SCHEMA completion as: SELECT nspname FROM
pg_catalog.pg_namespace
WHERE substr(nspname,1,%d)='%s'
* Added completion of "INSERT INTO <table> (" with attribute names.
* Added completion of "INSERT INTO <table> (attribs)" with
VALUES or SELECT
* Added limited locking completion: only for one table:
"LOCK" and "LOCK TABLE" now both get a completion list of tables
Complete with "IN" for LOCK [TABLE] <table>
Complete LOCK [TABLE] <table> IN with a lock mode
* Added a very simple WHERE finisher that uses the previous word
as a table lookup for attributes.
* Added quote support when parsing "previous words". In other words,
hitting tab after INSERT INTO "foo bar baby"
now does the right thing and recognizes "foo bar baby" as one word.
Letting tab-complete quote things that should be quoted seems to be
temporarily ifdef'ed out due to readline compatibility problems.
Can anyone elaborate on this?

possible to add them to your databases by hand, however. To accomplish
this:
psql -f your_postgresql_install_path/share/conversion_create.sql your_database

(Most of the ones that are present at this point just replace formerly

are motivated by security concerns, it's not just bug fixes. The key
differences (from stock 7.2.1) are:
*) almost all code that directly uses the OpenSSL library is in two
new files,
src/interfaces/libpq/fe-ssl.c
src/backend/postmaster/be-ssl.c
in the long run, it would be nice to merge these two files.
*) the legacy code to read and write network data have been
encapsulated into read_SSL() and write_SSL(). These functions
should probably be renamed - they handle both SSL and non-SSL
cases.
the remaining code should eliminate the problems identified
earlier, albeit not very cleanly.
*) both front- and back-ends will send a SSL shutdown via the
new close_SSL() function. This is necessary for sessions to
work properly.
(Sessions are not yet fully supported, but by cleanly closing
the SSL connection instead of just sending a TCP FIN packet
other SSL tools will be much happier.)
*) The client certificate and key are now expected in a subdirectory
of the user's home directory. Specifically,
- the directory .postgresql must be owned by the user, and
allow no access by 'group' or 'other.'
- the file .postgresql/postgresql.crt must be a regular file
owned by the user.
- the file .postgresql/postgresql.key must be a regular file
owned by the user, and allow no access by 'group' or 'other'.
At the current time encrypted private keys are not supported.
There should also be a way to support multiple client certs/keys.
*) the front-end performs minimal validation of the back-end cert.
Self-signed certs are permitted, but the common name *must*
match the hostname used by the front-end. (The cert itself
should always use a fully qualified domain name (FDQN) in its
common name field.)
This means that
psql -h eris db
will fail, but
psql -h eris.example.com db
will succeed. At the current time this must be an exact match;
future patches may support any FQDN that resolves to the address
returned by getpeername(2).
Another common "problem" is expiring certs. For now, it may be
a good idea to use a very-long-lived self-signed cert.
As a compile-time option, the front-end can specify a file
containing valid root certificates, but it is not yet required.
*) the back-end performs minimal validation of the client cert.
It allows self-signed certs. It checks for expiration. It
supports a compile-time option specifying a file containing
valid root certificates.
*) both front- and back-ends default to TLSv1, not SSLv3/SSLv2.
*) both front- and back-ends support DSA keys. DSA keys are
moderately more expensive on startup, but many people consider
them preferable than RSA keys. (E.g., SSH2 prefers DSA keys.)
*) if /dev/urandom exists, both client and server will read 16k
of randomization data from it.
*) the server can read empheral DH parameters from the files
$DataDir/dh512.pem
$DataDir/dh1024.pem
$DataDir/dh2048.pem
$DataDir/dh4096.pem
if none are provided, the server will default to hardcoded
parameter files provided by the OpenSSL project.
Remaining tasks:
*) the select() clauses need to be revisited - the SSL abstraction
layer may need to absorb more of the current code to avoid rare
deadlock conditions. This also touches on a true solution to
the pg_eof() problem.
*) the SIGPIPE signal handler may need to be revisited.
*) support encrypted private keys.
*) sessions are not yet fully supported. (SSL sessions can span
multiple "connections," and allow the client and server to avoid
costly renegotiations.)
*) makecert - a script that creates back-end certs.
*) pgkeygen - a tool that creates front-end certs.
*) the whole protocol issue, SASL, etc.
*) certs are fully validated - valid root certs must be available.
This is a hassle, but it means that you *can* trust the identity
of the server.
*) the client library can handle hardcoded root certificates, to
avoid the need to copy these files.
*) host name of server cert must resolve to IP address, or be a
recognized alias. This is more liberal than the previous
iteration.
*) the number of bytes transferred is tracked, and the session
key is periodically renegotiated.
*) basic cert generation scripts (mkcert.sh, pgkeygen.sh). The
configuration files have reasonable defaults for each type
of use.

use fmtId() twice, because it uses a static buffer (thanks for
spotting this Tom).
Another revision of the patch is attached.
