There's now only one transition value and transition function.
NULL handling in aggregates is a lot cleaner. Also, use Numeric
accumulators instead of integer accumulators for sum/avg on integer
datatypes --- this avoids overflow at the cost of being a little slower.
Implement VARIANCE() and STDDEV() aggregates in the standard backend.
Also, enable new LIKE selectivity estimators by default. Unrelated
change, but as long as I had to force initdb anyway...

memory contexts. Currently, only leaks in expressions executed as
quals or projections are handled. Clean up some old dead cruft in
executor while at it --- unused fields in state nodes, that sort of thing.

in-chunk leaks, overwrite-next-chunk leaks and overwrite block-freeptr leaks.
A in-chunk leak --- if something overwrite space after wanted (via palloc()
size, but it is still inside chunk. For example
x = palloc(12); /* create 16b chunk */
memset(x, '#', 13);
this leak is in the current source total invisible, because chunk is 16b and
leak is in the "align space".
For this feature I add data_size to StandardChunk, and all memory which go
from AllocSetAlloc() is marked as 0x7F.
The MemoryContextCheck() is compiled '#ifdef USE_ASSERT_CHECKING'.
I add this checking to 'tcop/postgres.c' and is active after each backend
query, but it is probably not sufficient, because some MemoryContext exist
only during memory processing --- will good if someone who known where
it is needful (Tom:-) add it for others contexts;
A problem in the current source is that we have still some malloc()
allocation that is not needful and this allocation is total invisible for
all context routines. For example Dllist in backend (pretty dirty it is in
catcache where values in Dllist are palloc-ed, but list is malloc-ed).
--- and BTW. this Dllist design stand in the way for query cache :-)
Tom, if you agree I start replace some mallocs.
BTW. --- Tom, have you idea for across transaction presistent allocation for
SQL functions? (like regex - now it is via malloc)
I almost forget. I add one if() to AllocSetAlloc(), for 'size' that are
greater than ALLOC_BIGCHUNK_LIMIT is not needful check AllocSetFreeIndex(),
because 'fidx' is always 'ALLOCSET_NUM_FREELISTS - 1'. It a little brisk up
allocation for very large chunks. Right?

backend functions via backend PQexec(). The SPI interface has long
been our only documented way to do this, and the backend pqexec/portal
code is unused and suffering bit-rot. I'm putting it out of its misery.

Automatically create toast table at CREATE TABLE if new table
has toastable attributes.

Don't go through pg_exec_query_dest(), but directly to the execution
routines. Also, extend parameter lists so that there's no need to
change the global setting of allowSystemTableMods, a hack that was
certain to cause trouble in the event of any error.

WARNING: This is actually broken - we have self-deadlocks
due to concurrent changes in buffer management.
Vadim and me are working on it.

in copyfuncs and equalfuncs exposed by regression tests. We still have
some work to do: these modules really ought to handle most or all of
the utility statement node types. But it's better than it was.

for details). It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no
short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is
in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably. A few long-
standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single
query string crashing. Also, out-of-memory is now considered a
recoverable ERROR, not FATAL.
Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around
memory management.
Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and
backend startup.

option settings. Sort out SIGHUP vs BACKEND -- there is no total ordering
here, so make explicit checks. Add comments explaining all of this.
Removed permissions check on SHOW command.
Add examine_subclass to the game, rename to SQL_inheritance to fit the
official data model better. Adjust documentation.
Standalone backend needs to reset all options before it starts. To
facilitate that, have IsUnderPostmaster be set by the postmaster itself,
don't wait for the magic -p switch.
Also make sure that all environment variables and argv's survive
init_ps_display(). Use strdup where necessary.
Have initdb make configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf) mode
0600 -- having configuration files is no fun if you can't edit them.

more restriction for fretful users. The current PG allow define only
NO-CREATE-DB and NO-CREATE-USER restriction, but for some users I need
NO-CREATE-TABLE and NO-LOCK-TABLE.
This patch add to current code NOCREATETABLE and NOLOCKTABLE feature:
CREATE USER username
[ WITH
[ SYSID uid ]
[ PASSWORD 'password' ] ]
[ CREATEDB | NOCREATEDB ] [ CREATEUSER | NOCREATEUSER ]
-> [ CREATETABLE | NOCREATETABLE ] [ LOCKTABLE | NOLOCKTABLE ]
...etc.
If CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE is not specific in CREATE USER command,
as default is set CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE (true).
A user with NOCREATETABLE restriction can't call CREATE TABLE or
SELECT INTO commands, only create temp table is allow for him.

inputs have been converted to newstyle. This should go a long way towards
fixing our portability problems with platforms where char and short
parameters are passed differently from int-width parameters. Still
more to do for the Alpha port however.

that name and issue a NOTICE to the effect that we did. Previously,
code would try to assign the new cursor declaration to the old portal,
but this didn't work reliably since new parsetree is still sitting in
blank portal and is likely to get clobbered.

Install a default configuration file.
Clean up some funny business in the config file code.

That means you can now set your options in either or all of $PGDATA/configuration,
some postmaster option (--enable-fsync=off), or set a SET command. The list of
options is in backend/utils/misc/guc.c, documentation will be written post haste.
pg_options is gone, so is that pq_geqo config file. Also removed were backend -K,
-Q, and -T options (no longer applicable, although -d0 does the same as -Q).
Added to configure an --enable-syslog option.

the src/include tree, so that -I backend is no longer necessary anywhere.
Also, clean up some bit rot in contrib tree.
|
|
key call sites are changed, but most called functions are still oldstyle.
An exception is that the PL managers are updated (so, for example, NULL
handling now behaves as expected in plperl and plpgsql functions).
NOTE initdb is forced due to added column in pg_proc.

It's still pretty fundamentally bogus :-(.
Freebie side benefit: ALTER TABLE RENAME works on indexes now.

cleanup, ie, as soon as we have caught the longjmp. This ensures that
current context will be a valid context throughout error cleanup. Before
it was possible that current context was pointing at a context that would
get deleted during cleanup, leaving any subsequent pallocs in deep
trouble. I was able to provoke an Assert failure when compiled with
asserts + -DCLOBBER_FREED_MEMORY, if I did something that would cause
an error to be reported by the backend large-object code, because indeed
that code operates in a context that gets deleted partway through xact
abort --- and CurrentMemoryContext was still pointing at it! Boo hiss.

because StatFp never got set in that case. Set it immediately before
use to eliminate such problems.

xact abort state in pg_exec_query_dest, we should continue scanning the

string is COMMIT or ROLLBACK.

would crash, due to premature invocation of SetQuerySnapshot(). Clean
up problems with handling of multiple queries by splitting
pg_parse_and_plan into two routines. The old code would not, for
example, do the right thing with END; SELECT... submitted in one query
string when it had been in transaction abort state, because it'd decide
to skip planning the SELECT before it had executed the END. New
arrangement is simpler and doesn't force caller to plan if only
parse+rewrite is needed.

variable, instead calling same code in variable.c that is used to parse
SET DATESTYLE. Fix bug: although backend's startup datestyle had been
changed to ISO, 'RESET DATESTYLE' and 'SET DATESTYLE TO DEFAULT' didn't
know about it. For consistency I have made the latter two reset to the
PGDATESTYLE-defined initial value, which may not be the same as the
compiled-in default of ISO.

* Let unprivileged users change their own passwords.
* The password is now an Sconst in the parser, which better reflects its text datatype and also
forces users to quote them.
* If your password is NULL you won't be written to the password file, meaning you can't connect
until you have a password set up (if you use password authentication).
* When you drop a user that owns a database you get an error. The database is not gone.
