Specifying this option makes the server not wait for the
xlog to be archived, or emit a warning that it can't,
instead leaving the responsibility with the client.
This is useful when the log is being streamed using
the streaming protocol in parallel with the backup,
without having log archiving enabled.

Older versions of gcc tend to throw "variable might be clobbered by
`longjmp' or `vfork'" warnings whenever a variable is assigned in more than
one place and then used after the end of a PG_TRY block. That's reasonably
easy to work around in execute_extension_script, and the overhead of
unconditionally saving/restoring the GUC variables seems unlikely to be a
serious concern.
Also clean up logic in ATExecValidateConstraint to make it easier to read
and less likely to provoke "variable might be used uninitialized in this
function" warnings.

This patch adds the server infrastructure to support extensions.
There is still one significant loose end, namely how to make it play nice
with pg_upgrade, so I am not yet committing the changes that would make
all the contrib modules depend on this feature.
In passing, fix a disturbingly large amount of breakage in
AlterObjectNamespace() and callers.

If the standby was streaming when trigger file arrives, check also in the
archive for additional WAL files. This is a corner case since it is
unlikely that we would trigger a failover while the master is still
available and sending data to standby, while at the same time running in
archive mode and also while the streaming standby has fallen behind archive.
Someone would eventually be unlucky; we must plug all gaps however small.

FK constraints that are marked NOT VALID may later be VALIDATED, which uses an
ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on constraint table and RowShareLock on referenced

Waiting for relation locks can lead to starvation - it pins down an
autovacuum worker for as long as the lock is held. But if we're doing
an anti-wraparound vacuum, then we still wait; maintenance can no longer
be put off.
To assist with troubleshooting, if log_autovacuum_min_duration >= 0,
we log whenever an autovacuum or autoanalyze is skipped for this reason.
Per a gripe by Josh Berkus, and ensuing discussion.

Until now, our Serializable mode has in fact been what's called Snapshot
Isolation, which allows some anomalies that could not occur in any
serialized ordering of the transactions. This patch fixes that using a
method called Serializable Snapshot Isolation, based on research papers by
Michael J. Cahill (see README-SSI for full references). In Serializable
Snapshot Isolation, transactions run like they do in Snapshot Isolation,
but a predicate lock manager observes the reads and writes performed and
aborts transactions if it detects that an anomaly might occur. This method
produces some false positives, ie. it sometimes aborts transactions even
though there is no anomaly.
To track reads we implement predicate locking, see storage/lmgr/predicate.c.
Whenever a tuple is read, a predicate lock is acquired on the tuple. Shared
memory is finite, so when a transaction takes many tuple-level locks on a
page, the locks are promoted to a single page-level lock, and further to a
single relation level lock if necessary. To lock key values with no matching
tuple, a sequential scan always takes a relation-level lock, and an index
scan acquires a page-level lock that covers the search key, whether or not
there are any matching keys at the moment.
A predicate lock doesn't conflict with any regular locks or with another
predicate locks in the normal sense. They're only used by the predicate lock
manager to detect the danger of anomalies. Only serializable transactions
participate in predicate locking, so there should be no extra overhead for
for other transactions.
Predicate locks can't be released at commit, but must be remembered until
all the transactions that overlapped with it have completed. That means that
we need to remember an unbounded amount of predicate locks, so we apply a
lossy but conservative method of tracking locks for committed transactions.
If we run short of shared memory, we overflow to a new "pg_serial" SLRU
pool.
We don't currently allow Serializable transactions in Hot Standby mode.
That would be hard, because even read-only transactions can cause anomalies
that wouldn't otherwise occur.
Serializable isolation mode now means the new fully serializable level.
Repeatable Read gives you the old Snapshot Isolation level that we have
always had.

If the foreign table's rowtype is being used as the type of a column in

Make sure it's clear that the prohibition on adding a column with a default

It's full of backend-specific error reporting, so it's neither possible

This fixes make distprep, and seems more robust in other ways as well.
Some special handling is required because errcodes.txt is needed by
some stuff in src/port, but just by src/backend as is the case for the
other generated headers.
While I'm at it, fix a few other things that were overlooked in the
original patch.

With this patch, pg_basebackup doesn't write a backup_label file in the
data directory, so it doesn't interfere with a pg_start/stop_backup() based
backup anymore. backup_label is still included in the backup, but it is
injected directly into the tar stream.

reduce_outer_joins() mistakenly treated a semijoin like a left join for
purposes of deciding whether not-null constraints created by the join's
quals could be passed down into the join's left-hand side (possibly
resulting in outer-join simplification there). Actually, semijoin works
like inner join for this purpose, ie, we do not need to see any rows that
can't possibly satisfy the quals. Hence, two-line fix to treat semi and
inner joins alike. Per observation by Andres Freund about a performance
gripe from Yazan Suleiman.
Back-patch to 8.4, since this oversight has been there since the current
handling of semijoins was implemented.

When included, this makes the base backup a complete working

When we need to insert a new entry and the queue is full, compact the
entire queue in the hopes of making room for the new entry. Doing this
on every insertion might worsen contention on BgWriterCommLock, but
when the queue it's full, it's far better than allowing the backend to
perform its own fsync, per testing by Greg Smith as reported in
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2011-01/msg02665.php

We only need that header when compiling with icc, since the gcc variant of

the header doesn't exist on all IA64 platforms; so don't include it unless
we need it.

This reverts commit a06e41deebdf74b8b5109329dc75b2e9d9057962 of 2011-01-26.
Per discussion, this behavior is not wanted, as it would need to change if
we ever made composite types support DEFAULT.

In the case where the initial call of systable_getnext_ordered() returned
NULL, this function would nonetheless call it again. That's undefined
behavior that only by chance failed to not give visibly incorrect results.
Put an if-test around the final loop to prevent that, and in passing
improve some comments. No back-patch since there's no actual failure.

The previous coding prevented ALTER TABLE .. ADD COLUMN from being used
with a non-NULL default in situations where the table's rowtype was being
used elsewhere. But this is a completely arbitrary restriction since
you could do the same operation in multiple steps (add the column, add
the default, update the table).
Inspired by a patch from Noah Misch, though I didn't use his code.

There isn't any need to track this state on a table-wide basis, and trying
to do so introduces undesirable semantic fuzziness. Move the flag to
pg_index, where it clearly describes just a single index and can be
immutable after index creation.
|

This feature allows a unique or pkey constraint to be created using an
already-existing unique index. While the constraint isn't very
functionally different from the bare index, it's nice to be able to do that
for documentation purposes. The main advantage over just issuing a plain
ALTER TABLE ADD UNIQUE/PRIMARY KEY is that the index can be created with
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY, so that there is not a long interval where the
table is locked against updates.
On the way, refactor some of the code in DefineIndex() and index_create()
so that we don't have to pass through those functions in order to create
the index constraint's catalog entries. Also, in parse_utilcmd.c, pass
around the ParseState pointer in struct CreateStmtContext to save on
notation, and add error location pointers to some error reports that didn't
have one before.

Include the lefttype/righttype columns explicitly (instead of assuming
the reader can deduce them from the operator or function description),
and move the operator or function description to the end of the string,

amproc item itself. Per extensive discussion of Andreas Karlsson's
original patch.

This tool makes it possible to do the pg_start_backup/
copy files/pg_stop_backup step in a single command.
There are still some steps to be done before this is a
complete backup solution, such as the ability to stream
the required WAL logs, but it's still usable, and
could do with some buildfarm coverage.
In passing, make the checkpoint request optionally
fast instead of hardcoding it.

As in commit fb4c5d2798730f60b102d775f22fb53c26a6445d on 2011-01-21,
this avoids spurious debug messages and allows idempotent changes at
any time. Along the way, make assign_XactIsoLevel allow idempotent
changes even when not within a subtransaction, to be consistent with
the new coding of assign_transaction_read_only and because there's
no compelling reason to do otherwise.

If wal_buffers is initially set to -1 (which is now the default), it's
replaced by 1/32nd of shared_buffers, with a minimum of 8 (the old default)
and a maximum of the XLOG segment size. The allowed range for manual
settings is still from 4 up to whatever will fit in shared memory.
