Make all system indexes unique.
Make all cache loads use system indexes.
Rename *rel to *relid in inheritance tables.
Rename cache names to be clearer.

for the case of errors in backend startup, and proc_exit's method for
coping with errors during proc_exit was *completely* busted. Fixed per
discussions on pghackers around 11/6/99.

returns a list of RelOptInfos, eliminating the need for static state
in index_info. That static state was a direct cause of coredumps; if
anything decided to elog(ERROR) partway through an index_info search of
pg_index, the next query would try to close a scan pointer that was
pointing at no-longer-valid memory. Another example of the reasons to
avoid static state variables...

(whoever thought world-writable files were a good default????). Modify
the pg_pwd code so that pg_pwd is created with 600 permissions. Modify
initdb so that permissions on a pre-existing PGDATA directory are not
blindly accepted: if the dir is already there, it does chmod go-rwx
to be sure that the permissions are OK and the dir actually is owned
by postgres.

inval.c thought it could safely use the catcache to look up the OIDs of
system relations. Not good, considering that inval.c could be called
during catcache loading, if a shared-inval message arrives. Rip out the
lookup logic and instead use the known OIDs from pg_class.h.

HAVE the required OID's first.

Warn_restart has been set by the backend main loop. This means that
elog(ERROR) or elog(FATAL) in the postmaster or during backend startup
now have well-defined behavior: proc_exit() rather than coredump.
In the case of elog() inside the postmaster, I think that proc_exit()
is probably not enough --- don't we want our child backends to be
forced to quit too? But I don't understand Vadim's recent changes in
this area, so I'll leave it to him to look over and tweak if needed.

subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator.
That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...),
but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere
in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks
to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand
side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK.
To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink
type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to.
But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side
row expression.

nulls with non-nulls using proper three-valued boolean logic. Also clean
up ExecQual to make it clearer that ExecQual *does* follow the SQL spec
for boolean nulls. See '[BUGS] (null) != (null)' thread around 10/26/99
for more detail.

Fewer calls to nameout.
Better use of RelationGetRelationName.

Now indexes of pg_class and pg_type are unique indexes
and guarantee the uniqueness of correponding attributes.
heap_create() was changed to take another boolean parameter
which allows to postpone the creation of disk file.
The name of rd_nonameunlinked was changed to rd_unlinked.
It is used generally(not only for noname relations) now.
Requires initdb.

make_const --- don't repeat cache searches that aren't needed.

in the TupleDesc that the caller already has (for call from ExecMain) or
can make just as easily as ExecInitJunkFilter() can (for call from
ExecAppend). Also, don't bother to build a junk filter for an INSERT
operation that doesn't actually need one, which is the normal case.

The following patch extends the COMMENT ON functionality to the
rest of the database objects beyond just tables, columns, and views. The
grammer of the COMMENT ON statement now looks like:
COMMENT ON [
[ DATABASE | INDEX | RULE | SEQUENCE | TABLE | TYPE | VIEW ] <objname>
|
COLUMN <relation>.<attribute> |
AGGREGATE <aggname> <aggtype> |
FUNCTION <funcname> (arg1, arg2, ...) |
OPERATOR <op> (leftoperand_typ rightoperand_typ) |
TRIGGER <triggername> ON relname>

eliminating some wildly inconsistent coding in various parts of the
system. I set MAXPGPATH = 1024 in config.h.in. If anyone is really
convinced that there ought to be a configure-time test to set the
value, go right ahead ... but I think it's a waste of time.

when an initdb-forcing change has been applied within a development cycle.
PG_VERSION serves this purpose for official releases, but we can't bump
the PG_VERSION number every time we make a change to the catalogs during
development. Instead, increase the catalog version number to warn other
developers that you've made an incompatible change. See my mail to
pghackers for more info.

pg_dump and interfaces/odbc still need some work.)

a generalized module 'tuplesort.c' that can sort either HeapTuples or
IndexTuples, and is not tied to execution of a Sort node. Clean up
memory leakages in sorting, and replace nbtsort.c's private implementation
of mergesorting with calls to tuplesort.c.
|
|
recycle storage within sort temp file on a block-by-block basis. This
reduces peak disk usage to essentially just the volume of data being
sorted, whereas it had been about 4x the data volume before.

>From the ORACLE 7 SQL Language Reference Manual:
-----------------------------------------------------
COMMENT
Purpose:
To add a comment about a table, view, snapshot, or
column into the data dictionary.
Prerequisites:
The table, view, or snapshot must be in your own
schema
or you must have COMMENT ANY TABLE system privilege.
Syntax:
COMMENT ON [ TABLE table ] |
[ COLUMN table.column] IS 'text'
You can effectively drop a comment from the database
by setting it to the empty string ''.
-----------------------------------------------------
Example:
COMMENT ON TABLE workorders IS
'Maintains base records for workorder information';
COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS
'Number of hours the engineer worked on the task';
to drop a comment:
COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS '';
The current patch will simply perform the insert into
pg_description, as per the TODO. And, of course, when
the table is dropped, any comments relating to it
or any of its attributes are also dropped. I haven't
looked at the ODBC source yet, but I do know from
an ODBC client standpoint that the standard does
support the notion of table and column comments.
Hopefully the ODBC driver is already fetching these
values from pg_description, but if not, it should be
trivial.
Hope this makes the grade,

BufFile so that it handles multi-segment temporary files transparently.
This allows sorts and hashes to work with data exceeding 2Gig (or whatever
the local limit on file size is). Change psort.c to use relative seeks
instead of absolute seeks for backwards scanning, so that it won't fail
when the data volume exceeds 2Gig.

Cygwin snapshots (tested on 990115 which is recommended to use - it fixes
some errors in B20.1)
And I have another patch for including <sys/ipc.h> before <sys/sem.h> in
backend/storage/lmgr/proc.c - it is required due the design of cygipc
headers

Now WHERE restriction on ctid is allowed though it is
sequentially scanned.

up debugging options for postmaster and postgres programs. postmaster
-d is no longer optional. Documentation updates.
