1998-07-12Change atttypmod from int16 to int32, for Thomas.Bruce Momjian
1998-07-09From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>Marc G. Fournier
Making PQrequestCancel safe to call in a signal handler turned out to be much easier than I feared. So here are the diffs. Some notes: * I modified the postmaster's packet "iodone" callback interface to allow the callback routine to return a continue-or-drop-connection return code; this was necessary to allow the connection to be closed after receiving a Cancel, rather than proceeding to launch a new backend... Being a neatnik, I also made the iodone proc have a typechecked parameter list. * I deleted all code I could find that had to do with OOB. * I made some edits to ensure that all signals mentioned in the code are referred to symbolically not by numbers ("SIGUSR2" not "2"). I think Bruce may have already done at least some of the same edits; I hope that merging these patches is not too painful.

1998-04-27From: t-ishii@sra.co.jpMarc G. Fournier
Hi, here are patches I promised (against 6.3.2): * character_length(), position(), substring() are now aware of multi-byte characters * add octet_length() * add --with-mb option to configure * new regression tests for EUC_KR (contributed by "Soonmyung. Hong" <hong@lunaris.hanmesoft.co.kr>) * add some test cases to the EUC_JP regression test * fix problem in regress/regress.sh in case of System V * fix toupper(), tolower() to handle 8bit chars note that: o patches for both configure.in and configure are included. maybe the one for configure is not necessary. o pg_proc.h was modified to add octet_length(). I used OIDs (1374-1379) for that. Please let me know if these numbers are not appropriate.
1998-04-27From: Ryan Kirkpatrick <rkirkpat@nag.cs.colorado.edu>Marc G. Fournier
Ok, I have finally gotten all of the defines for Dec/Alpha and Linux/Alpha sorted out as Marc asked. There is no longer any need for '-Dalpha' or '-Dlinuxalpha' in either the Dec/Alpha or the Linux/Alpha template files (./src/template/{alpha,linuxalpha}). I have replaced every instance of 'alpha' or '__alpha__' with '__alpha', as that appears to be the common symbol between C compilers on both operating systems (RH4.2 & DecUnix 4.0b) for alpha.
1998-04-27This patch...Bruce Momjian
1. Removes the unnecessary "#define AbcRegProcedure 123"'s from pg_proc.h. 2. Changes those #defines to use the names already defined in fmgr.h. 3. Forces the make of fmgr.h in backend/Makefile instead of having it made as a dependency in access/common/Makefile *hack*hack*hack* 4. Rearranged the #includes to a less helter-skelter arrangement, also changing <file.h> to "file.h" to signify a non-system header. 5. Removed "pg_proc.h" from files where its only purpose was for the #defines removed in item #1. 6. Added "fmgr.h" to each file changed for completeness sake. Turns out that #6 was not necessary for some files because fmgr.h was being included in a roundabout way SIX levels deep by the first include. "access/genam.h" ->"access/relscan.h" ->"utils/rel.h" ->"access/strat.h" ->"access/skey.h" ->"fmgr.h" So adding fmgr.h really didn't add anything to the compile, hopefully just made it clearer to the programmer.

1998-04-07Back out char2-char16 removal. Add later.Bruce Momjian
1998-04-06Hi,Bruce Momjian
Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate. It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh a little smarter. This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) ) This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to complete. Please review and apply, Cheers, Jeroen van Vianen

1. Remove the char2, char4, char8 and char16 types from postgresql 2. Change references of char16 to name in the regression tests. 3. Rename the char16.sql regression test to name.sql. 4.

1998-03-30There's a patch attached to fix gcc 2.8.x warnings, except for theBruce Momjian
yyerror ones from bison. It also includes a few 'enhancements' to the C programming style (which are, of course, personal). The other patch removes the compilation of backend/lib/qsort.c, as qsort() is a standard function in stdlib.h and can be used any where else (and it is). It was only used in backend/optimizer/geqo/geqo_pool.c, backend/optimizer/path/predmig.c, and backend/storage/page/bufpage.c > > Some or all of these changes might not be appropriate for v6.3, since we > > are in beta testing and since they do not affect the current functionality. > > For those cases, how about submitting patches based on the final v6.3 > > release? There's more to come. Please review these patches. I ran the regression tests and they only failed where this was expected (random, geo, etc). Cheers, Jeroen

For substr() and substring() on the text data type, the relevant code is in varlena.c. You are right, there is a problem. I have a patch which I will apply to the source tree soon. The copy enclosed below probably does not preserve tabs correctly so cannot be applied directly; the relevant change is simply changing the ">=" to ">"...
1998-03-15From: t-ishii@sra.co.jpMarc G. Fournier
Included are patches intended for allowing PostgreSQL to handle multi-byte charachter sets such as EUC(Extende Unix Code), Unicode and Mule internal code. With the MB patch you can use multi-byte character sets in regexp and LIKE. The encoding system chosen is determined at the compile time. To enable the MB extension, you need to define a variable "MB" in Makefile.global or in Makefile.custom. For further information please take a look at README.mb under doc directory. (Note that unlike "jp patch" I do not use modified GNU regexp any more. I changed Henry Spencer's regexp coming with PostgreSQL.)

1998-02-25From: Jan Wieck <jwieck@debis.com>Marc G. Fournier
seems that my last post didn't make it through. That's good since the diff itself didn't covered the renaming of pg_user.h to pg_shadow.h and it's new content. Here it's again. The complete regression test passwd with only some float diffs. createuser and destroyuser work. pg_shadow cannot be read by ordinary user.

What it does: It solves stupid problem with cyrillic charsets IP-based on-fly recoding. take a look at /data/charset.conf for details. You can use any tables for any charset. Tables are from Russian Apache project. Tables in this patch contains also Ukrainian characters. Then run ./configure --enable-recode

So if the relname is given to acldefault() in utils/adt/acl.c, it can do a IsSystemRelationName() on it and return ACL_RD instead of ACL_WORLD_DEFAULT.
1998-02-23Quick cleanupsMarc G. Fournier
1998-02-23From: Jan Wieck <jwieck@debis.com>Marc G. Fournier
The diff looks so simple and easy. But to find it wasn't fun. It must have been there for a long time. What happened: When a tuple in one of some central catalogs was updated, the referenced relation got flushed, so it would be reopened on the next access (to reflect new triggers, rules and table structure changes into the relation cache). Some data (the tupleDescriptor e.g.) is used in the system cache too. So when a relation is subject to the system cache, this must know too that a cached system relation got flushed because the tupleDesc data gets freed during the flush! For the GRANT/REVOKE on pg_class it was slightly different. There is some local data in inval.c that gets initialized on the first invalidation of a tuple in some central catalogs. This needs a SysCache lookup in pg_class. But when the first of all commands is a GRANT on pg_class, exactly the needed tuple is the one actually invalidated. So I added little code snippets that the initialization of the local variables in inval.c will already happen during InitPostgres().

The file 'backend/utils/adt/arrayfuncs.c' won't compile with the February 14th snapshot, because of an inconsistency between the declaration and implementation of ReadArrayStr(). As far as I can tell, the predeclaration is wrong. I assume this is what was meant:
