2005-05-05Stamp release 8.0.3.Tom Lane
2005-05-03Alter the signature for encoding conversion functions to declare theTom Lane
output area as INTERNAL not CSTRING. This is to prevent people from calling the functions by hand. This is a permanent solution for the back branches but I hope it is just a stopgap for HEAD.

2005-03-24Change Win32 O_SYNC method to O_DSYNC because that is what the methodBruce Momjian
currently does. This is now the default Win32 wal sync method because we perfer o_datasync to fsync. Also, change Win32 fsync to a new wal sync method called fsync_writethrough because that is the behavior of _commit, which is what is used for fsync on Win32. Backpatch to 8.0.X.
2005-03-23Add note about risks involved in replaying CREATE TABLESPACE commandsTom Lane
from WAL. A couple other grammatical improvements too.
2005-03-03Replace ARC cache management algorithm with the similar but slightlyTom Lane
simpler 2Q algorithm, to avoid possible problems with the pending patent on ARC. Testing so far suggests that there is little if any performance loss from doing this. Note that this patch is going into the 8.0 branch only; a much more extensive revision is planned for HEAD.

2005-01-26Close all cursors created during a failed subtransaction. This is neededTom Lane
to avoid problems when a cursor depends on objects created or changed in the same subtransaction. We'd like to do better someday, but this seems the only workable answer for 8.0.1.
