rows were removed from the heap by the VACUUM.

isn't being used anywhere anymore, and there seems no point in a generic
index_keytest() routine when two out of three remaining access methods
aren't using it. Also, add a comment documenting a convention for
letting access methods define private flag bits in ScanKey sk_flags.
There are no such flags at the moment but I'm thinking about changing
btree's handling of "required keys" to use flag bits in the keys
rather than a count of required key positions. Also, if some AM did
still want SK_NEGATE then it would be reasonable to treat it as a private
flag bit.

comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

that are assigned to but never used.

generated by bitmap index scans. Along the way, simplify and speed up
the code for counting sequential and index scans; it was both confusing
and inefficient to be taking care of that in the per-tuple loops, IMHO.
initdb forced because of internal changes in pg_stat view definitions.

on a page, as suggested by ITAGAKI Takahiro. Also, change a few places
that were using some other estimates of max-items-per-page to consistently
use MaxOffsetNumber. This is conservatively large --- we could have used
the new MaxHeapTuplesPerPage macro, or a similar one for index tuples ---
but those places are simply declaring a fixed-size buffer and assuming it
will work, rather than actively testing for overrun. It seems safer to
size these buffers in a way that can't overflow even if the page is
corrupt.

basic regression tests for GiST to the standard regression tests.
I took the opportunity to add an rtree-equivalent gist opclass for
circles; the contrib version only covered boxes and polygons, but
indexing circles is very handy for distance searches.

- add forgotten check of lsn for insert completion
- remove level of pages: hard to check in recovery
- some cleanups

- full concurrency for insert/update/select/vacuum:
- select and vacuum never locks more than one page simultaneously
- select (gettuple) hasn't any lock across it's calls
- insert never locks more than two page simultaneously:
- during search of leaf to insert it locks only one page
simultaneously
- while walk upward to the root it locked only parent (may be
non-direct parent) and child. One of them X-lock, another may
be S- or X-lock
- 'vacuum full' locks index
- improve gistgetmulti
- simplify XLOG records
Fix bug in index_beginscan_internal: LockRelation may clean
rd_aminfo structure, so move GET_REL_PROCEDURE after LockRelation

2. improve vacuum for gist
- use FSM
- full vacuum:
- reforms parent tuple if it's needed
( tuples was deleted on child page or parent tuple remains invalid
after crash recovery )
- truncate index file if possible
3. fixes bugs and mistakes

recovery after crash (power loss etc) it may say that it can't restore
index and index should be reindexed.
Some refactoring code.

That code is never going to be used in the foreseeable future, and
where it's more than a stub it's making the redo routines harder to
read.

external projects, we should be careful about what parts of the GiST
API are considered implementation details, and which are part of the
public API. Therefore, I've moved internal-only declarations into
gist_private.h -- future backward-incompatible changes to gist.h should
be made with care, to avoid needlessly breaking external GiST extensions.
Also did some related header cleanup: remove some unnecessary #includes
from gist.h, and remove some unused definitions: isAttByVal(), _gistdump(),
and GISTNStrategies.

- make sure we always invoke user-supplied GiST methods in a short-lived
memory context. This means the backend isn't exposed to any memory leaks
that be in those methods (in fact, it is probably a net loss for most
GiST methods to bother manually freeing memory now). This also means
we can do away with a lot of ugly manual memory management in the
GiST code itself.
- keep the current page of a GiST index scan pinned, rather than doing a
ReadBuffer() for each tuple produced by the scan. Since ReadBuffer() is
expensive, this is a perf. win
- implement dead tuple killing for GiST indexes (which is easy to do, now
that we keep a pin on the current scan page). Now all the builtin indexes
implement dead tuple killing.
- cleanup a lot of ugly code in GiST

methods: they all invoke UpdateStats() since they have computed the
number of heap tuples, so I created a function in catalog/index.c that
each AM now calls.
|
|
access: define new index access method functions 'amgetmulti' that can
fetch multiple TIDs per call. (The functions exist but are totally
untested as yet.) Since I was modifying pg_am anyway, remove the
no-longer-needed 'rel' parameter from amcostestimate functions, and
also remove the vestigial amowner column that was creating useless
work for Alvaro's shared-object-dependencies project.
Initdb forced due to changes in pg_am.

convention for isnull flags. Also, remove the useless InsertIndexResult
return struct from index AM aminsert calls --- there is no reason for
the caller to know where in the index the tuple was inserted, and we
were wasting a palloc cycle per insert to deliver this uninteresting
value (plus nontrivial complexity in some AMs).
I forced initdb because of the change in the signature of the aminsert
routines, even though nothing really looks at those pg_proc entries...

ReleaseAndReadBuffer during GIST index searches. We already did this
in btree and rtree, might as well do it here too.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...

keep track of portal-related resources separately from transaction-related
resources. This allows cursors to work in a somewhat sane fashion with
nested transactions. For now, cursor behavior is non-subtransactional,
that is a cursor's state does not roll back if you abort a subtransaction
that fetched from the cursor. We might want to change that later.

performance front, but with feature freeze upon us I think it's time to
drive a stake in the ground and say that this will be in 7.5.

boxes. Change interface to user-defined GiST support methods union and
picksplit. Now instead of bytea struct it used special GistEntryVector
structure.

subroutine in src/port/pgsleep.c. Remove platform dependencies from
miscadmin.h and put them in port.h where they belong. Extend recent
vacuum cost-based-delay patch to apply to VACUUM FULL, ANALYZE, and
non-btree index vacuuming.
By the way, where is the documentation for the cost-based-delay patch?

pointer type when it is not necessary to do so.
For future reference, casting NULL to a pointer type is only necessary
when (a) invoking a function AND either (b) the function has no prototype
OR (c) the function is a varargs function.

pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.

Remove the 'strategy map' code, which was a large amount of mechanism
that no longer had any use except reverse-mapping from procedure OID to
strategy number. Passing the strategy number to the index AM in the
first place is simpler and faster.
This is a preliminary step in planned support for cross-datatype index
operations. I'm committing it now since the ScanKeyEntryInitialize()
API change touches quite a lot of files, and I want to commit those
changes before the tree drifts under me.

NULL key pointer, indicating that the existing scan key should be reused.
This behavior isn't used yet but will be needed for my planned fix to
