c77f363384 Ensure that close() and fclose() are checked for errors, at least in
cases involving writes.  Per recent discussion about the possibility
of close-time failures on some filesystems.  There is a TODO item for
this, too.

e0707cbae9 The attached patch clarifies (or, rather, makes explicit) to readers how
to handle memory management for char pointers returned by libpq functions.
Original patch by Gavin Sherry, some tweaking and consistency improvements
by Neil Conway.

be11fa26e3 Repair incorrect order of operations in GetNewTransactionId(). We must
complete ExtendCLOG() before advancing nextXid, so that if that routine
fails, the next incoming transaction will try it again.  Per trouble
report from Christopher Kings-Lynne.

you'd need to do one to get the improved view.

6f046b9d9f Revert the change to print.c, as this breaks src/bin/scripts. The proper
way to fix this is probably implementing safe memory handling functions
once in a static lib and then using that in the various client apps,
but for the moment I've just reverted the change to un-break the tree.

d77b63b17c Added GUC variable bgwriter_flush_method controlling the action
done by the background writer between writing dirty blocks and
napping.

    none (default)   no action
	sync             bgwriter calls smgrsync() causing a sync(2)

A global sync() is only good on dedicated database servers, so
more flush methods should be added in the future.

610d33c194 This patch makes some of the memory manipulation performed by psql a
little more sane. Some parts of the code was using a static function
xmalloc() that did safe memory allocation (where "safe" means "bail
out on OOM"), but most of it was just invoking calloc() or malloc()
directly. Now almost everything invokes xmalloc() or xcalloc().

5d66583678 Repair planner failure for cases involving Cartesian products inside
IN (sub-SELECT) constructs.  We must force a clauseless join of the
sub-select member relations, but it wasn't happening because the code
thought it would be able to use the join clause arising from the IN.

3969f2924b Revise GEQO planner to make use of some heuristic knowledge about SQL, namely
that it's good to join where there are join clauses rather than where there
are not.  Also enable it to generate bushy plans at need, so that it doesn't
fail in the presence of multiple IN clauses containing sub-joins.  These
changes appear to improve the behavior enough that we can substantially reduce
the default pool size and generations count, thereby decreasing the runtime,
and yet get as good or better plans as we were getting in 7.4.  Consequently,
adjust the default GEQO parameters.  I also modified the way geqo_effort is
used so that it affects both population size and number of generations;
it's now useful as a single control to adjust the GEQO runtime-vs-plan-quality
tradeoff.  Bump geqo_threshold to 12, since even with these changes GEQO
seems to be slower than the regular planner at 11 relations.

0bd3606d72 Fix a minor bug introduced by the recent CREATE TABLE AS / WITH OIDS
patch: a 3-value enum was mistakenly assigned directly to a 'bool'
in transformCreateStmt(). Along the way, change makeObjectName()
to be static, as it isn't used outside analyze.c

a376a4673a Fix oversight in optimization that avoids an unnecessary projection step
when scanning a table that we need all the columns from.  In case of

672a807028 Repair error apparently introduced in the initial coding of GUC: the
default value for geqo_effort is supposed to be 40, not 1.  The actual
'genetic' component of the GEQO algorithm has been practically disabled
since 7.1 because of this mistake.  Improve documentation while at it.
