This was already a runtime failure condition, but it's better to check
at validation time if possible. Lightly modified version of a patch
by Shigeru Hanada.
Certain subdirectories do not get built if corresponding options are not
selected at configure time. However, "make distprep" should visit such
directories anyway, so that constructing derived files to be included in
the tarball happens without requiring all configure options to be given
in the tarball build script. Likewise, it's better if cleanup actions
unconditionally visit all directories (for example, this ensures proper
cleanup if someone has done a manual make in such a subdirectory).
To handle this, set up a convention that subdirectories that are
conditionally included in SUBDIRS should be added to ALWAYS_SUBDIRS
instead when they are excluded.
Back-patch to 9.1, so that plpython's spiexceptions.h will get provided
in 9.1 tarballs. There don't appear to be any instances where distprep
actions got missed in previous releases, and anyway this fix requires
gmake 3.80 so we don't want to apply it before 9.1.
A password containing a character with the high bit set was misprocessed
on machines where char is signed (which is most). This could cause the
preceding one to three characters to fail to affect the hashed result,
thus weakening the password. The result was also unportable, and failed
to match some other blowfish implementations such as OpenBSD's.
Since the fix changes the output for such passwords, upstream chose
to provide a compatibility hack: password salts beginning with $2x$
(instead of the usual $2a$ for blowfish) are intentionally processed
"wrong" to give the same hash as before. Stored password hashes can
thus be modified if necessary to still match, though it'd be better
to change any affected passwords.
In passing, sync a couple other upstream changes that marginally improve
performance and/or tighten error checking.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Since this issue is already
public, no reason not to commit the fix ASAP.
This is an ugly hack to get around the fact that significant parts of the
core backend assume they don't need to worry about passing collation to
equality and hashing functions. That's true for the core string datatypes,
but citext should ideally have equality behavior that depends on the
specified collation's LC_CTYPE. However, there's no chance of fixing the
core before 9.2, so we'll have to live with this compromise arrangement for
now. Per bug #6053 from Regina Obe.
The code changes in this commit should be reverted in full once the core
code is up to speed, but be careful about reverting the docs changes:
I fixed a number of obsolete statements while at it.
For consistency, have all non-ASCII characters from contributors'
names in the source be in UTF-8. But remove some other more
gratuitous uses of non-ASCII characters.
For consistency with other tools, put the options before further usage
information.
In pg_standby, remove the supposedly deprecated -l option from the
given example invocation.
the connection; also restructure the libpq connection code.
This patch also removes the unused variable postmasterPID and fixes a
libpq structure leak that was in the testing loop.
Added a new option --extra-install to pg_regress to arrange installing
the respective contrib directory into the temporary installation.
This is currently not yet supported for Windows MSVC builds.
Updated the .gitignore files for contrib modules to ignore the
leftovers of a temp-install check run.
Changed the exit status of "make check" in a pgxs build (which still
does nothing) to 0 from 1.
Added "make check" in contrib to top-level "make check-world".
This option turns off autovacuum, prevents non-super-user connections,
and enables oid setting hooks in the backend. The code continues to use
the old autoavacuum disable settings for servers with earlier catalog
versions.
This includes a catalog version bump to identify servers that support
the -b option.
Make use of the collation attached to the index column, instead of
hard-wiring DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID. (Note: in theory this could require
reindexing btree_gist indexes on textual columns, but I rather doubt anyone
has one with a non-default declared collation as yet.)
Using DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID in the comparePartial functions was not only
a lame hack, but outright wrong, because the compare functions for
collation-aware types were already responding to the declared index
collation. So comparePartial would have the wrong expectation about
the index's sort order, possibly leading to missing matches for prefix
searches.
