2009-06-05GIN's ItemPointerIsMin, ItemPointerIsMax, and ItemPointerIsLossyPage macrosTom Lane
should use GinItemPointerGetBlockNumber/GinItemPointerGetOffsetNumber, not ItemPointerGetBlockNumber/ItemPointerGetOffsetNumber, because the latter will Assert() on ip_posid == 0, ie a "Min" pointer. (Thus, ItemPointerIsMin has never worked at all, but it seems unused at present.) I'm not certain that the case can occur in normal functioning, but it's blowing up on me while investigating Tatsuo-san's data corruption problem. In any case it seems like a problem waiting to bite someone. Back-patch just in case this really is a problem for somebody in the field.

Windows. Backpatch to release 8.3
2009-06-04Trivial code style cleanup around a couple of ngettext calls.Tom Lane
2009-06-04Remove a couple of debugging messages that have been #ifdef'd out for ages.Tom Lane
Seems silly to ask translators to expend work on these, especially in pluralized variants.
2009-06-04Improve the recently-added support for properly pluralized error messagesTom Lane
by extending the ereport() API to cater for pluralization directly. This is better than the original method of calling ngettext outside the elog.c code because (1) it avoids double translation, which wastes cycles and in the worst case could give a wrong result; and (2) it avoids having to use a different coding method in PL code than in the core backend. The client-side uses of ngettext are not touched since neither of these concerns is very pressing in the client environment. Per my proposal of yesterday.
2009-06-04Initialise perl library as documented in perl API. Backpatch to release 7.4.Andrew Dunstan
2009-06-03Clean up ecpg's use of mmerror(): const-ify the format argument, add anTom Lane
__attribute__() marker so that gcc can validate the format string against the actual arguments, get rid of overcomplicated and unsafe usage in base_yyerror().
2009-06-03Fix tsquerysel() to not fail on an empty TSQuery. Per report fromTom Lane
Tatsuo Ishii.
2009-06-03Change rather bizarre code ordering in get_id(). This isn't strictlyTom Lane
cosmetic --- I'm wondering if geteuid could have side effects on errno, thus possibly resulting in a misleading error message after failure of getpwuid.

2009-06-03Add comment about why "((void) 0)" is used in copy macros.Bruce Momjian
2009-06-02Only recycle normal files in pg_xlog as WAL segments. pg_standby createsHeikki Linnakangas
symbolic links with the -l option, and as Fujii Masao pointed out we ended up overwriting files in the archive directory before this patch. Patch by Aidan Van Dyk, Fujii Masao and me. Backpatch to 8.3, where pg_standby was introduced.
2009-06-01Change AdjustIntervalForTypmod to not discard higher-order field values on theTom Lane
grounds that they don't fit into the specified interval qualifier (typmod). This behavior, while of long standing, is clearly wrong per spec --- for example the value INTERVAL '999' SECOND means 999 seconds and should not be reduced to less than 60 seconds. In some cases there could be grounds to raise an error if higher-order field values are not given as zero; for example '1 year 1 month'::INTERVAL MONTH should arguably be taken as an error rather than equivalent to 13 months. However our internal representation doesn't allow us to do that in a fashion that would consistently reject all and only the cases that a strict reading of the spec would suggest. Also, seeing that for example INTERVAL '13' MONTH will print out as '1 year 1 mon', we have to be careful not to create a situation where valid data will fail to dump and reload. The present patch therefore takes the attitude of not throwing an error in any such case. We might want to revisit that in future but it would take more redesign than seems prudent in late beta. Per a complaint from Sebastien Flaesch and subsequent discussion. While at other times we might have just postponed such an issue to the next development cycle, 8.4 already has changed the parsing of interval literals quite a bit in an effort to accept all spec-compliant cases correctly. This seems like a change that should be part of that rather than coming along later.
2009-06-01Fix DecodeInterval to report an error for multiple occurrences of DAY, WEEK,Tom Lane
YEAR, DECADE, CENTURY, or MILLENIUM fields, just as it always has done for other types of fields. The previous behavior seems to have been a hack to avoid defining bit-positions for all these field types in DTK_M() masks, rather than something that was really considered to be desired behavior. But there is room in the masks for these, and we really need to tighten up at least the behavior of DAY and YEAR fields to avoid unexpected behavior associated with the 8.4 changes to interpret ambiguous fields based on the interval qualifier (typmod) value. Per my example and proposed patch.
2009-05-31Update obsolete comment in index_drop(). When the comment was written,Tom Lane
queries frequently took no lock at all on individual indexes. That's not true any more, but we still need lock on the parent table to make it safe to use cached lists of index OIDs.
2009-05-29Change macros to make gcc quiet when parsing.Michael Meskes

all transactions are archived. Original patch by Guillaume Smet.

this, the username was in practice never matched against the kerberos principal used to log in.

2009-05-27Ignore RECHECK in CREATE OPERATOR CLASS, just throwing a NOTICE, instead ofTom Lane
throwing an error as 8.4 had been doing. The error interfered with porting old database definitions (particularly for pg_migrator) without really buying any safety. Per bug #4817 and subsequent discussion.
2009-05-27Fix compiler warnings on Sun Studio of the sortPeter Eisentraut
"tsquery_op.c", line 193: warning: syntax error: empty declaration Zdenek Kotala
2009-05-27Reverting patch just in case a compiler treats this enum as signed.Michael Meskes
2009-05-26Allow the second argument of pg_get_expr() to be just zero when deparsingTom Lane
an expression that's not supposed to contain variables. Per discussion with Gevik Babakhani, this eliminates the need for an ugly kluge (namely, specifying some unrelated relation name). Remove one such kluge from pg_dump.
2009-05-26Remove the useless and rather inconsistent return values of EncodeDateOnly,Tom Lane
EncodeTimeOnly, EncodeDateTime, EncodeInterval. These don't have any good reason to fail, and their callers were mostly not checking anyway.
2009-05-26Remove unused declarations of EncodeTimeOnly and DecodeTimeOnly.Tom Lane
2009-05-26Add range checks to time_recv() and timetz_recv(), to prevent binary inputTom Lane
of time values that would not be accepted via textual input. Per gripe from Andrew McNamara. This is potentially a back-patchable bug fix, but for the moment it doesn't seem sufficiently high impact to justify doing that.
2009-05-24Use more-portable coding for the check on handing out the last availableTom Lane
relopt_kind value in add_reloption_kind(). Per Zdenek Kotala.
2009-05-24Fix LIKE's special-case code for % followed by _. I'm not entirely sure thatTom Lane
this case is worth a special code path, but a special code path that gets the boundary condition wrong is definitely no good. Per bug #4821 from Andrew Gierth. In passing, clean up some minor code formatting issues (excess parentheses and blank lines in odd places). Back-patch to 8.3, where the bug was introduced.
2009-05-21Resort tsvector's lexemes in tsvectorrecv instead of emmiting an error.Teodor Sigaev
Basically, it's needed to support binary dump from 8.3 because ordering rule was changed. Per discussion with Bruce.

2009-05-19Update relpages and reltuples estimates in stand-alone ANALYZE, even ifHeikki Linnakangas
there's no analyzable attributes or indexes. We also used to report 0 live and dead tuples for such tables, which messed with autovacuum threshold calculations. This fixes bug #4812 reported by George Su. Backpatch back to 8.1.
2009-05-19Fix bug #4814 (wrong subscript in consistent-function call), and add someTom Lane

2009-05-16Improve comments in pg_ident.conf.sample.Tom Lane
2009-05-15Fix all the server-side SIGQUIT handlers (grumble ... why so many identicalTom Lane
copies?) to ensure they really don't run proc_exit/shmem_exit callbacks, as was intended. I broke this behavior recently by installing atexit callbacks without thinking about the one case where we truly don't want to run those callback functions. Noted in an example from Dave Page.

2009-05-14Include recovery_end_command in recovery.conf.sample.Tom Lane
Per suggestion of Jaime Casanova.

2009-05-14Improve a couple of comments.Tom Lane
2009-05-14Add recovery_end_command option to recovery.conf. recovery_end_commandHeikki Linnakangas
is run at the end of archive recovery, providing a chance to do external cleanup. Modify pg_standby so that it no longer removes the trigger file, that is to be done using the recovery_end_command now. Provide a "smart" failover mode in pg_standby, where we don't fail over immediately, but only after recovering all unapplied WAL from the archive. That gives you zero data loss assuming all WAL was archived before failover, which is what most users of pg_standby actually want. recovery_end_command by Simon Riggs, pg_standby changes by Fujii Masao and myself.
2009-05-13Add checks to DefineQueryRewrite() to prohibit attaching rules to relationsTom Lane
that aren't RELKIND_RELATION or RELKIND_VIEW, and to disallow attaching rules to system relations unless allowSystemTableMods is on. This is to make the behavior of CREATE RULE more like CREATE TRIGGER, which disallows the comparable cases. Per discussion of bug #4808.
2009-05-13Rewrite xml.c's memory management (yet again). Give up on the idea ofTom Lane
redirecting libxml's allocations into a Postgres context. Instead, just let it use malloc directly, and add PG_TRY blocks as needed to be sure we release libxml data structures in error recovery code paths. This is ugly but seems much more likely to play nicely with third-party uses of libxml, as seen in recent trouble reports about using Perl XML facilities in pl/perl and bug #4774 about contrib/xml2. I left the code for allocation redirection in place, but it's only built/used if you #define USE_LIBXMLCONTEXT. This is because I found it useful to corral libxml's allocations in a palloc context when hunting for libxml memory leaks, and we're surely going to have more of those in the future with this type of approach. But we don't want it turned on in a normal build because it breaks exactly what we need to fix. I have not re-indented most of the code sections that are now wrapped by PG_TRY(); that's for ease of review. pg_indent will fix it. This is a pre-existing bug in 8.3, but I don't dare back-patch this change until it's gotten a reasonable amount of field testing.
