2008-05-16Recent patch doesn't compile without <limits.h>Tom Lane
2008-05-16Suppress a possibly-uninitialized-variable warning. (I'm only seeing itTom Lane
on Apple's gcc and not my other machines, but still it seems worth getting rid of.)
2008-05-16Implement error checking for pthreads calls in thread-safe mode. They reallyMagnus Hagander
should always succeed, but in the likely event of a failure we would previously fall through *without locking* - the new code will exit(1). Printing the error message on stderr will not work for all applications, but it's better than nothing at all - and our API doesn't provide a way to return the error to the caller.
2008-05-16Suppress compiler warning induced by recent header file refactoring.Tom Lane
2008-05-16Update contrib for tsearch changes.Tom Lane
2008-05-16Update psql startup banner to be shorter, suggest "help" for help.Bruce Momjian
Add a few "help" entries. Move \g help entry into "General". Update psql version mismatch warning text. Joshua D. Drake

2008-05-16Add detection of psql pager to trigger on wide output. Also add pagerBruce Momjian
detection for wrapped lines or lines with newlines that need pager to display.
2008-05-16Extend GIN to support partial-match searches, and extend tsquery to supportTom Lane
prefix matching using this facility. Teodor Sigaev and Oleg Bartunov

2008-05-16Persuade GIN to react to control-C in a reasonable amount of timeTom Lane
while building a GIN index.
2008-05-15Support SQL/PSM-compatible CASE statement in plpgsql.Tom Lane
Pavel Stehule
2008-05-15Add code to eval_const_expressions() to support const-simplification ofTom Lane
CoerceViaIO nodes. This improves the ability of the planner to deal with cases where the node input is a constant. Per bug #4170.
2008-05-15Add support for tracking call counts and elapsed runtime for user-definedTom Lane
functions. Note that because this patch changes FmgrInfo, any external C functions you might be testing with 8.4 will need to be recompiled. Patch by Martin Pihlak, some editorialization by me (principally, removing tracking of getrusage() numbers)
2008-05-14Move the "instr_time" typedef and associated macros into a new headerTom Lane
file portability/instr_time.h, and add a couple more macros to eliminate some abstraction leakage we formerly had. Also update psql to use this header instead of its own copy of nearly the same code. This commit in itself is just code cleanup and shouldn't change anything. It lays some groundwork for the upcoming function-stats patch, though.
2008-05-14Reorgnize psql \? help output, to reduce the size of the "General"Bruce Momjian
heading at the top; broken into more sections now.
2008-05-14Fix a few warnings that have crept into CVS HEAD.Bruce Momjian
2008-05-14Remove the special variable for open_sync_bit used in O_SYNC and O_DSYNCMagnus Hagander
modes, replacing it with a call to a function that derives it from the sync_method variable, now that it has distinct values for these two cases. This means that assign_xlog_sync_method() no longer changes any settings, thus fixing the bug introduced in the change to use a guc enum for wal_sync_method.
2008-05-14Make the win32 implementation of getrusage() return EINVAL if beingMagnus Hagander
asked for anything other than RUSAGE_SELF, since it's not supported. This is never called anywhere in the code today, but might be in the future. Not backpatching, since it's not called anywhere today.
2008-05-14Remove odd duplicate wording in psql pager section.Bruce Momjian
2008-05-13Improve plpgsql's RAISE command. It is now possible to attach DETAIL andTom Lane
HINT fields to a user-thrown error message, and to specify the SQLSTATE error code to use. The syntax has also been tweaked so that the Oracle-compatible case "RAISE exception_name" works (though you won't get a very nice error message if you just write that much). Lastly, support the Oracle-compatible syntax "RAISE" with no parameters to re-throw the current error from within an EXCEPTION block. In passing, allow the syntax SQLSTATE 'nnnnn' within EXCEPTION lists, so that there is a way to trap errors with custom SQLSTATE codes. Pavel Stehule and Tom Lane
2008-05-13Don't try to close negative file descriptors, since this can causeMagnus Hagander
crashes on certain platforms. In particular, the MSVC runtime is known to do this. Fixes bug #4162, reported and diagnosed by Javier Pimas
2008-05-13This is the patch replace offnum++ by OffsetNumberNext, to beBruce Momjian
consistent. OffsetNumberNext() has some casting that makes it useful. Fujii Masao
2008-05-13Change \du to use the new printTable API, improving the situation of very wideAlvaro Herrera
tables. Brendan Jurd, with some help from me.
2008-05-13Fix a bug in the previous patch, which caused the title pointer to be usedAlvaro Herrera
before it was actually set.
2008-05-12Improve psql's internal print.c code by introducing an actual print API.Alvaro Herrera
Provides for better code readability, but mainly this is infrastructure changes to allow further changes such as arbitrary footers on printed tables. Also, the translation status of each element in the table is more easily customized. Brendan Jurd, with some editorialization by me.

2008-05-12Improve snapshot manager by keeping explicit track of snapshots.Alvaro Herrera
There are two ways to track a snapshot: there's the "registered" list, which is used for arbitrary long-lived snapshots; and there's the "active stack", which is used for the snapshot that is considered "active" at any time. This also allows users of snapshots to stop worrying about snapshot memory allocation and freeing, and about using PG_TRY blocks around ActiveSnapshot assignment. This is all done automatically now. As a consequence, this allows us to reset MyProc->xmin when there are no more snapshots registered in the current backend, reducing the impact that long-running transactions have on VACUUM.

Remove #include bufmgr.h from (most?) source files which already include bufpage.h.
2008-05-12Report which WAL sync method we are trying to change *to* when it fails,Magnus Hagander
not which one we had before (that worked, and thus is completley irrelevant)
2008-05-12Convert wal_sync_method to guc enum.Magnus Hagander
2008-05-12Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera
unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.

2008-05-10Restore psql's former behavior that padding spaces to the right of the lastTom Lane
output column are not emitted. (That change already caused more noise in the regression test output files than I would like.) Provide some needed editorial help for comments, clean up code formatting.

2008-05-09Change the rules for inherited CHECK constraints to be essentially the sameTom Lane
as those for inherited columns; that is, it's no longer allowed for a child table to not have a check constraint matching one that exists on a parent. This satisfies the principle of least surprise (rows selected from the parent will always appear to meet its check constraints) and eliminates some longstanding bogosity in pg_dump, which formerly had to guess about whether check constraints were really inherited or not. The implementation involves adding conislocal and coninhcount columns to pg_constraint (paralleling attislocal and attinhcount in pg_attribute) and refactoring various ALTER TABLE actions to be more like those for columns.
