The only use we have had for amindexnulls is in determining whether an
index is safe to cluster on; but since the addition of the amclusterable
flag, that usage is pretty redundant.
In passing, clean up assorted sloppiness from the last patch that touched
pg_am.h: Natts_pg_am was wrong, and ambuildempty was not documented.

No backpatch to 9.0 because you can't migrate from 9.0 to 9.0 with the
same catversion (because of tablespace conflict), and a pre-9.0
migration to 9.0 has not large object permissions to migrate.

Toast tables have identical pg_class.oid and pg_class.relfilenode, but
for clarity it is good to preserve the pg_class.oid.
Update comments regarding what is preserved, and do some

This can be overriden by using NOREPLICATION on the CREATE ROLE
statement, but by default they will have it, making it backwards
compatible and "less surprising" (given that superusers normally
override all checks).

In the previous coding, the parser emitted a List containing a C string,
which is no good, because copyObject() can't handle it.

Add new function pg_sequence_parameters that returns a sequence's start,
minimum, maximum, increment, and cycle values, and use that in the view.

Also slightly adjust the view's column order and permissions after review of
SQL standard.

Foreign tables are a core component of SQL/MED. This commit does
not provide a working SQL/MED infrastructure, because foreign tables
cannot yet be queried. Support for foreign table scans will need to
be added in a future patch. However, this patch creates the necessary
system catalog structure, syntax support, and support for ancillary
operations such as COMMENT and SECURITY LABEL.

The contents of an unlogged table are WAL-logged; thus, they are not
available on standby servers and are truncated whenever the database
system enters recovery. Indexes on unlogged tables are also unlogged.
Unlogged GiST indexes are not currently supported.

This privilege is required to do Streaming Replication, instead of
superuser, making it possible to set up a SR slave that doesn't
have write permissions on the master.
Superuser privileges do NOT override this check, so in order to
use the default superuser account for replication it must be
explicitly granted the REPLICATION permissions. This is backwards
incompatible change, in the interest of higher default security.

This commit replaces pg_class.relistemp with pg_class.relpersistence;
and also modifies the RangeVar node type to carry relpersistence rather
than istemp. It also removes removes rd_istemp from RelationData and
instead performs the correct computation based on relpersistence.
For clarity, we add three new macros: RelationNeedsWAL(),
RelationUsesLocalBuffers(), and RelationUsesTempNamespace(), so that we
can clarify the purpose of each check that previous depended on
rd_istemp.
This is intended as infrastructure for the upcoming unlogged tables
patch, as well as for future possible work on global temporary tables.

Purely cosmetic patch to make our coding standards more consistent ---
we were doing symbolic some places and octal other places. This patch
fixes all C-coded uses of mkdir, chmod, and umask. There might be some
other calls I missed. Inconsistency noted while researching tablespace
directory permissions issue.

This doesn't involve any user-visible change in behavior, but will be
useful when the COPY routines are exposed to allow their use by Foreign
Data Wrapper routines, which will be able to use these routines to read
irregular CSV files, for example.

This is a heavily revised version of builtin_knngist_core-0.9. The
ordering operators are no longer mixed in with actual quals, which would
have confused not only humans but significant parts of the planner.
Instead, ordering operators are carried separately throughout planning and
execution.
Since the API for ambeginscan and amrescan functions had to be changed
anyway, this commit takes the opportunity to rationalize that a bit.
RelationGetIndexScan no longer forces a premature index_rescan call;
instead, callers of index_beginscan must call index_rescan too. Aside from
making the AM-side initialization logic a bit less peculiar, this has the
advantage that we do not make a useless extra am_rescan call when there are
runtime key values. AMs formerly could not assume that the key values
passed to amrescan were actually valid; now they can.

After a SQL object is created, we provide an opportunity for security
or logging plugins to get control; for example, a security label provider
could use this to assign an initial security label to newly created
objects. The basic infrastructure is (hopefully) reusable for other types
of events that might require similar treatment.
KaiGai Kohei, with minor adjustments.

This commit adds columns amoppurpose and amopsortfamily to pg_amop, and
column amcanorderbyop to pg_am. For the moment all the entries in
amcanorderbyop are "false", since the underlying support isn't there yet.
Also, extend the CREATE OPERATOR CLASS/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands with
[ FOR SEARCH | FOR ORDER BY sort_operator_family ] clauses to allow the new
columns of pg_amop to be populated, and create pg_dump support for dumping
that information.
I also added some documentation, although it's perhaps a bit premature
given that the feature doesn't do anything useful yet.

Any flavor of ALTER <whatever> .. SET SCHEMA fails if (1) the object

In the previous coding, we simply issued ALTER SEQUENCE RESTART commands,
which do not roll back on error. This meant that an error between
truncating and committing left the sequences out of sync with the table
contents, with potentially bad consequences as were noted in a Warning on
the TRUNCATE man page.
To fix, create a new storage file (relfilenode) for a sequence that is to
be reset due to RESTART IDENTITY. If the transaction aborts, we'll
automatically revert to the old storage file. This acts just like a
rewriting ALTER TABLE operation. A penalty is that we have to take
exclusive lock on the sequence, but since we've already got exclusive lock
on its owning table, that seems unlikely to be much of a problem.
The interaction of this with usual nontransactional behaviors of sequence
operations is a bit weird, but it's hard to see what would be completely
consistent. Our choice is to discard cached-but-unissued sequence values
both when the RESTART is executed, and at rollback if any; but to not touch
the currval() state either time.
In passing, move the sequence reset operations to happen before not after
any AFTER TRUNCATE triggers are fired. The previous ordering was not
logically sensible, but was forced by the need to minimize inconsistency
if the triggers caused an error. Transactional rollback is a much better
solution to that.

Having this in src/include/port.h makes no sense, now that copydir.c lives
in src/backend/strorage rather than src/port. Along the way, remove an
obsolete comment from contrib/pg_upgrade that makes reference to the old

The general design of memory management in Postgres is that intermediate
results computed by an expression are not freed until the end of the tuple
cycle. For expression indexes, ANALYZE has to re-evaluate each expression
for each of its sample rows, and it wasn't bothering to free intermediate
results until the end of processing of that index. This could lead to very
substantial leakage if the intermediate results were large, as in a recent
example from Jakub Ouhrabka. Fix by doing ResetExprContext for each sample
row. This necessitates adding a datumCopy step to ensure that the final
expression value isn't recycled too. Some quick testing suggests that this
change adds at worst about 10% to the time needed to analyze a table with
an expression index; which is annoying, but seems a tolerable price to pay
to avoid unexpected out-of-memory problems.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

The core of this patch is hash_array() and associated typcache
infrastructure, which works just about exactly like the existing support
for array comparison.
In addition I did some work to ensure that the planner won't think that an
array type is hashable unless its element type is hashable, and similarly
for sorting. This includes adding a datatype parameter to op_hashjoinable
and op_mergejoinable, and adding an explicit "hashable" flag to
SortGroupClause. The lack of a cross-check on the element type was a
pre-existing bug in mergejoin support --- but it didn't matter so much
before, because if you couldn't sort the element type there wasn't any good
alternative to failing anyhow. Now that we have the alternative of hashing
the array type, there are cases where we can avoid a failure by being picky
at the planner stage, so it's time to be picky.
The issue of exactly how to combine the per-element hash values to produce
an array hash is still open for discussion, but the rest of this is pretty
solid, so I'll commit it as-is.

Split the old typenameTypeId() into two functions: A new typenameTypeId() that
returns only a type OID, and typenameTypeIdAndMod() that returns type OID and
typmod. This isolates call sites better that actually care about the typmod.

After much expenditure of effort, we've got this to the point where the

This patch eliminates various bizarre behaviors caused by sloppy thinking
about the difference between a domain type and its underlying array type.
In particular, the operation of updating one element of such an array
has to be considered as yielding a value of the underlying array type,
*not* a value of the domain, because there's no assurance that the
domain's CHECK constraints are still satisfied. If we're intending to
store the result back into a domain column, we have to re-cast to the
domain type so that constraints are re-checked.
For similar reasons, such a domain can't be blindly matched to an ANYARRAY
polymorphic parameter, because the polymorphic function is likely to apply
array-ish operations that could invalidate the domain constraints. For the
moment, we just forbid such matching. We might later wish to insert an
automatic downcast to the underlying array type, but such a change should
also change matching of domains to ANYELEMENT for consistency.
To ensure that all such logic is rechecked, this patch removes the original
hack of setting a domain's pg_type.typelem field to match its base type;
the typelem will always be zero instead. In those places where it's really
okay to look through the domain type with no other logic changes, use the
newly added get_base_element_type function in place of get_element_type.
catversion bumped due to change in pg_type contents.
Per bug #5717 from Richard Huxton and subsequent discussion.

This patch eliminates the former need to sort the output of an Append scan
when an ordered scan of an inheritance tree is wanted. This should be
particularly useful for fast-start cases such as queries with LIMIT.

This patch adds the SQL-standard concept of an INSTEAD OF trigger, which
is fired instead of performing a physical insert/update/delete. The
trigger function is passed the entire old and/or new rows of the view,
and must figure out what to do to the underlying tables to implement
the update. So this feature can be used to implement updatable views
using trigger programming style rather than rule hacking.
In passing, this patch corrects the names of some columns in the
information_schema.triggers view. It seems the SQL committee renamed
them somewhere between SQL:99 and SQL:2003.

This patch resurrects some of the information that could be logged by the
old, now-dead implementation of VACUUM FULL, in particular counts of live
and dead tuples and the time taken for the table rebuild proper. There's
still no logging about the ensuing index rebuilds, though.

Actually making this case work, if the column is used in the trigger's
WHEN condition, will take some new code that probably isn't appropriate
to back-patch. For now, just throw a FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED error rather
than allowing control to reach the "unexpected object" case. Per bug #5688
from Daniel Grace. Back-patch to 9.0 where the possibility of such a
dependency was introduced.

hasn't been set.
The only known case where this can happen is when show_session_authorization
is invoked in an autovacuum process, which is possible if an index function
calls it, as for example in bug #5669 from Andrew Geery. We could perhaps
try to return a sensible value, such as the name of the cluster-owning
superuser; but that seems like much more trouble than the case is worth,
and in any case it could create new possible failure modes. Simply
returning an empty string seems like the most appropriate fix.
Back-patch to all supported versions, even those before autovacuum, just
in case there's another way to provoke this crash.

The previous coding just terminated the COPY immediately after seeing
the EOF marker (-1 where a row field count is expected). The expected
CopyDone or CopyFail message just got thrown away later, since we weren't
in COPY mode anymore. This behavior complicated matters for the JDBC
driver, and arguably was the wrong thing in any case since a CopyFail
message after the marker wouldn't be honored.
Note that there is a behavioral change here: extra data after the EOF
marker was silently ignored before, but now it will cause an error.
Hence not back-patching, although this is arguably a bug.
