Tom Lane d40d34863e Fix pg_locks view to call advisory locks advisory locks, while preserving 
backward compatibility for anyone using the old userlock code that's now
on pgfoundry --- locks from that code still show as 'userlock'.

 2006-09-22 15:41:12 +00:00
Tom Lane 29e53ca389 We're going to have to spell dotless i as plain i, because dotless i is 
not in the character set supported by DocBook nor standard HTML.  (Sorry
Volkan.)  Also replace random character-set references by a pointer to
the actual standard.

Neil Conway c62172100b Improvements to the partitioning documentation. Original patch from Greg 
Stark, additional fixes and editorialization by Neil Conway. Greg's patch
description:

    Some more doc patches for partitioned tables. In particular replace
    the caveat that INCLUDING CONSTRAINTS doesn't exist and replace it
    with documentation of, well, INCLUDING CONSTRAINTS.

    Also, there was an instance of "LIKE WITH DEFAULTS" which is
    actually spelled "LIKE INCLUDING DEFAULTS".

Tom Lane 9b4cda0df6 Add built-in userlock manipulation functions to replace the former 
contrib functionality.  Along the way, remove the USER_LOCKS configuration
symbol, since it no longer makes any sense to try to compile that out.
No user documentation yet ... mmoncure has promised to write some.
Thanks to Abhijit Menon-Sen for creating a first draft to work from.

Teodor Sigaev bcbb402e31 Improve wordings by David Fuhry <dfuhry@cs.kent.edu> 2006-09-18 12:11:36 +00:00
Tom Lane da7540b9d1 Change ANALYZE to take ShareUpdateExclusiveLock not AccessShareLock on 
the table being analyzed.  This prevents two ANALYZEs from running
concurrently on the same table and possibly suffering concurrent-update
failures while trying to store their results into pg_statistic.  The
downside is that a database-wide ANALYZE executed within a transaction
block will hold ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on many tables simultaneously,
which could lead to concurrency issues or even deadlock against another
such ANALYZE.  However, this seems a corner case of less importance
than getting unexpected errors from a foreground ANALYZE when autovacuum
elects to analyze the same table concurrently.  Per discussion.

Tom Lane 5ff4f39c0e Rename the recently-added pg_timezonenames view to pg_timezone_abbrevs, 
and create a new view pg_timezone_names that provides information about
the zones known in the 'zic' database.  Magnus Hagander, with some
additional work by Tom Lane.
 2006-09-16 20:14:34 +00:00
Tom Lane 1246d797e4 Rename xml_valid() to xml_is_well_formed(), but provide a temporary 
alias with the old name for backwards compatibility.  Per discussion,
the old name is actively wrong because validity and well-formedness
have different meanings in XML.

Tom Lane 65ab9f4f24 Add a couple of information functions to support direct checks on whether 
a schema is our own temp schema or another backend's temp schema, and use
these in place of some former kluges in information_schema.  Per my
proposal of yesterday.
