not named ones, and replace linear searches of the list with array indexing.
The named-parameter support has been dead code for many years anyway,
and recent profiling suggests that the searching was costing a noticeable
amount of performance for complex queries.

of rejecting palloc(0). Also, tweak like_selectivity() to avoid assuming
the presented pattern is nonempty; although that assumption is valid,
it doesn't really help much, and the new coding is more correct anyway
since it properly handles redundant wildcards. In combination these
changes should eliminate a Coverity warning noted by Martijn.
whenever we start to read within that file. The first page carries
extra identification information that really ought to be checked, but
as the code stood, this was only checked when we switched sequentially
into a new WAL file, or if by chance the starting checkpoint record was
within the first page. This patch ensures that we will detect bogus
'long header' information before we start replaying the WAL sequence.
symbol for PPC64 hardware. I hadn't known that Apple supported PPC64 at
all, but darn if there aren't 64-bit variant libraries in OS X as well
as support in their gcc.
no evidence that any currently-supported platform needs this, and good
reason to think that any platform that did need it couldn't use the static
libraries anyway --- libpq, at least, has circular references. Removing
the code shuts up tsort warnings about the circular references on some
platforms.
8.0), and add as suggestion to use log_min_error_statement for this
purpose. I also fixed the code so the first EXECUTE has it's prepare,
rather than the last which is what was in the current code. Also remove
"protocol" prefix for SQL EXECUTE output because it is not accurate.
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
to occur between pg_start_backup() and pg_stop_backup(), even if the GUC
setting full_page_writes is OFF. Per discussion, doing this in combination
with the already-existing checkpoint during pg_start_backup() should ensure
safety against partial page updates being included in the backup. We do
not have to force full page writes to occur during normal PITR operation,
as I had first feared.
CREATE AGGREGATE aggname (input_type) (parameter_list)
along with the old syntax where the input type was named in the parameter
list. This fits more naturally with the way that the aggregate is identified
in DROP AGGREGATE and other utility commands; furthermore it has a natural
extension to handle multiple-input aggregates, where the basetype-parameter
method would get ugly. In fact, this commit fixes the grammar and all the
utility commands to support multiple-input aggregates; but DefineAggregate
rejects it because the executor isn't fixed yet.
I didn't do anything about treating agg(*) as a zero-input aggregate instead
of artificially making it a one-input aggregate, but that should be considered
in combination with supporting multi-input aggregates.
update no-longer-existing pages to fall through as no-ops, but make a note
of each page number referenced by such records. If we don't see a later
XLOG entry dropping the table or truncating away the page, complain at
the end of XLOG replay. Since this fixes the known failure mode for
full_page_writes = off, revert my previous band-aid patch that disabled
that GUC variable.
If a process abandons a wait in LockBufferForCleanup (in practice,
only happens if someone cancels a VACUUM) just before someone else
sends it a signal indicating the buffer is available, it was possible
for the wakeup to remain in the process' semaphore, causing misbehavior
next time the process waited for an lmgr lock. Rather than try to
prevent the race condition directly, it seems best to make the lock
manager robust against leftover wakeups, by having it repeat waiting
on the semaphore if the lock has not actually been granted or denied
yet.
alternatives ("|" symbol). The original coding allowed the added ^ and $
constraints to be absorbed into the first and last alternatives, producing
a pattern that would match more than it should. Per report from Eric Noriega.
I also changed the pattern to add an ARE director ("***:"), ensuring that
SIMILAR TO patterns do not change behavior if regex_flavor is changed. This
is necessary to make the non-capturing parentheses work, and seems like a
good idea on general principles.
Back-patched as far as 7.4. 7.3 also has the bug, but a fix seems impractical
because that version's regex engine doesn't have non-capturing parens.
upper-level insertion completes a previously-seen split, we cannot simply grab
the downlink block number out of the buffer, because the buffer could contain
a later state of the page --- or perhaps the page doesn't even exist at all
any more, due to relation truncation. These possibilities have been masked up
to now because the use of full_page_writes effectively ensured that no xlog
replay routine ever actually saw a page state newer than its own change.
Since we're deprecating full_page_writes in 8.1.*, there's no need to fix this
in existing release branches, but we need a fix in HEAD if we want to have any
hope of re-allowing full_page_writes. Accordingly, adjust the contents of
btree WAL records so that we can always get the downlink block number from the
WAL record rather than having to depend on buffer contents. Per report from
Kevin Grittner and Peter Brant.
Improve a few comments in related code while at it.

at least one join condition as an indexqual. Before bitmap indexscans, this
oversight didn't really cost much except for redundantly considering the
same join paths twice; but as of 8.1 it could result in silly bitmap scans
that would do the same BitmapOr twice and then BitmapAnd these together :-(
when trying to locate the referent of a RECORD variable. This fixes the
'record type has not been registered' failure reported by Stefan
Kaltenbrunner about a month ago. A side effect of the way I chose to
fix it is that most variable references in join conditions will now be
properly labeled with the variable's source table name, instead of the
not-too-helpful 'outer' or 'inner' we used to use.

Per recent discussion, this seems to be making the stats less accurate
rather than more so, particularly on Windows where PID values may be
reused very quickly. Patch by Peter Brant.

that apply the necessary domain constraint checks immediately. This fixes
cases where domain constraints went unchecked for statement parameters,
PL function local variables and results, etc. We can also eliminate existing
special cases for domains in places that had gotten it right, eg COPY.
Also, allow domains over domains (base of a domain is another domain type).
This almost worked before, but was disallowed because the original patch
hadn't gotten it quite right.

becomes a little bit easier.

functions are not strict, they will be called (passing a NULL first parameter)
during any attempt to input a NULL value of their datatype. Currently, all
our input functions are strict and so this commit does not change any
behavior. However, this will make it possible to build domain input functions
that centralize checking of domain constraints, thereby closing numerous holes
in our domain support, as per previous discussion.
While at it, I took the opportunity to introduce convenience functions
InputFunctionCall, OutputFunctionCall, etc to use in code that calls I/O
functions. This eliminates a lot of grotty-looking casts, but the main
motivation is to make it easier to grep for these places if we ever need
to touch them again.

BLCKSZ, but there's no necessary connection, and it's possible that
performance gains might ensue from reducing XLOG_BLCKSZ. In any case
distinguishing two symbols should improve code clarity. This commit
does not actually change the page size, only provide the infrastructure
to make it possible to do so. initdb forced because of addition of a

to fix regressions introduced in the recent patch adding additional
\connect options. This is based on work by Volkan YAZICI, although
this version of the patch doesn't bear much resemblance to Volkan's
version.
\connect takes 4 optional arguments: database name, user name, host
name, and port number. If any of those parameters are omitted or
specified as "-", the value of that parameter from the previous
connection is used instead; if there is no previous connection,
the libpq default is used. Note that this behavior makes it
impossible to reuse the libpq defaults without quitting psql and
restarting it; I don't really see the use case for needing to do
that.
