2007-11-19Improve description of implicit-text-casting compatibility issue.Tom Lane
A bunch of other desultory copy-editing, too.
2007-11-19Minor improvement in documentation of temp_tablespaces: avoid grammaticalTom Lane
ambiguity and say what the default value is.
2007-11-18Remove no-longer-accurate claim that REINDEX won't invalidate cachedTom Lane
plans.
2007-11-17Wordsmith improvements to first half of release notes, move TEXT castBruce Momjian
item to #1 imcompatibility slot.
2007-11-17Simplify TEXT cast working; spelling fixes to release notes.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Improve GIN index build's tracking of memory usage by usingTom Lane
GetMemoryChunkSpace, not just the palloc request size. This brings the allocatedMemory counter close enough to reality (as measured by MemoryContextStats printouts) that I think we can get rid of the arbitrary factor-of-2 adjustment that was put into the code initially. Given the sensitivity of GIN build to work memory size, not using as much of work memory as we're allowed to seems a pretty bad idea.
2007-11-16GIN index build's allocatedMemory counter needs to be long, not uint32.Tom Lane
Else, in a 64-bit machine with maintenance_work_mem set to above 4Gb, the counter overflows and we never recognize having reached the maintenance_work_mem limit. I believe this explains out-of-memory failure recently reported by Sean Davis. This is a bug, so backpatch to 8.2.
2007-11-16Fix inconsistent message wording, and split off a couple of duplicated strings.Alvaro Herrera
2007-11-16Repair still another bug in the btree page split WAL reduction patch:Tom Lane
it failed for splits of non-leaf pages because in such pages the first data key on a page is suppressed, and so we can't just copy the first key from the right page to reconstitute the left page's high key. Problem found by Koichi Suzuki, patch by Heikki.
2007-11-16Fix a few mentions of "Postgres" that slipped into the release notes.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Add release note that "Postgres" is now documented as an acceptableBruce Momjian
alias.
2007-11-16Simplify wording.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Add FAQ items about "Postgres" alias usage, remove old reference.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Fix tsvectorout() and tsqueryout() to escape backslesh, add test of that.Teodor Sigaev
Patch by Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> Backpatch is needed, but it's impossible to apply it directly
2007-11-16Fix markup that doesn't work in HISTORY generation.REL8_3_BETA3Tom Lane
2007-11-16Re-do configure with autoconf 2.59Tom Lane
2007-11-16update files for beta3Marc G. Fournier
2007-11-16Add a couple of notes pointing out that GIN index build time is veryTom Lane
sensitive to maintenance_work_mem (something I just learned the hard way).
2007-11-16Small comment spacing improvement.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Better guard token used by pgindent.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Run pgindent on remaining files now that LOOPBYTE is a usable macro.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Cleanup for new else/comment handling.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-16Fix stupid typo in recently-added code :-(Tom Lane
2007-11-16Add snb_ru_init(internal) to list of stub functions in tsearch2Tom Lane
compatibility module. Needed to support loading of 8.1-era tsearch2 configuration data.
2007-11-16Modify LOOPBYTE/LOOPBIT macros to be more logical; rather than have theBruce Momjian
for() body passed as a parameter, make the macros act as simple headers to code blocks. This allows pgindent to be run on these files.
2007-11-15Fix pgindent to properly handle 'else' and single-line comments on theBruce Momjian
same line; previous fix was only partial. Re-run pgindent on files that need it.
2007-11-15Re-run pgindent with updated list of typedefs. (Updated README shouldBruce Momjian
avoid this problem in the future.)
2007-11-15Beef up README instructions, again.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-15CUpdate README to suggest 'gmake distclean'. Add library typedefs.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-15Update pgtools README to be clearer about typdefs.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-15Update pgindent with current typedefs.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-15When logging the recovery.conf parameters, show them quoted as they wouldPeter Eisentraut
appear in the configuration file.
2007-11-15Add blank lines to pgindent.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-15Use ftruncate() not truncate() in mdunlink. Seems Windows doesn'tTom Lane
support the latter.
2007-11-15Update timezone data files to release 2007i of the zic database.Tom Lane
2007-11-15pgindent run for 8.3.Bruce Momjian
2007-11-15Translation updatesPeter Eisentraut
2007-11-15Prevent re-use of a deleted relation's relfilenode until after the nextTom Lane
checkpoint. This guards against an unlikely data-loss scenario in which we re-use the relfilenode, then crash, then replay the deletion and recreation of the file. Even then we'd be OK if all insertions into the new relation had been WAL-logged ... but that's not guaranteed given all the no-WAL-logging optimizations that have recently been added. Patch by Heikki Linnakangas, per a discussion last month.
