* Make hstore regression tests independent of standard_conforming_strings.Robert Haas2010-07-20
| | | | Per buildfarm.
* Add restart_after_crash GUC.Robert Haas2010-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | Normally, we automatically restart after a backend crash, but in some cases when PostgreSQL is invoked by clusterware it may be desirable to suppress this behavior, so we provide an option which does this. Since no existing GUC group quite fits, create a new group called "error handling options" for this and the previously undocumented GUC exit_on_error, which is now documented. Review by Fujii Masao.
* Change the default value of standard_conforming_strings to on.Robert Haas2010-07-20
| | | | | This change should be publicized to driver maintainers at once and release-noted as an incompatibility with previous releases.

* Remove unnecessary "Not safe to send CSV data" complaint from elog.c's fallbackTom Lane2010-07-18
| | | | | | | | | path when CSV logging is configured but not yet operational. It's sufficient to send the message to stderr, as we were already doing, and the "Not safe" gripe has already confused at least two core members ... Backpatch to 9.0, but not further --- doesn't seem appropriate to change this behavior in stable branches.
* Allow ORDER BY/GROUP BY/etc items to match targetlist items regardless ofTom Lane2010-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | any implicit casting previously applied to the targetlist item. This is reasonable because the implicit cast, by definition, wasn't written by the user; so we are preserving the expected behavior that ORDER BY items match textually equivalent tlist items. The case never arose before because there couldn't be any implicit casting of a top-level SELECT item before we process ORDER BY etc. But now it can arise in the context of aggregates containing ORDER BY clauses, since the "targetlist" is the already-casted list of arguments for the aggregate. The net effect is that the datatype used for ORDER BY/DISTINCT purposes is the aggregate's declared input type, not that of the original input column; which is a bit debatable but not horrendous, and to do otherwise would require major rework that doesn't seem justified. Per bug #5564 from Daniel Grace. Back-patch to 9.0 where aggregate ORDER BY was implemented.

* Simplify missing tablespace replay error hint message, but only in HEADBruce Momjian2010-07-18
| | | | so we don't need to re-translate for 9.0.
* Add a log_file_mode GUC that allows control of the file permissions set onTom Lane2010-07-16

* Remove a sanity check in the exclusion-constraint code that prevented usersTom Lane2010-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | from defining non-self-conflicting constraints. Jeff Davis Note: I (tgl) objected to removing this check in 9.0 on the grounds that it was an important sanity check in new, poorly tested code. However, it should be all right to remove it for 9.1, since we'll get field testing from the 9.0 branch.
* Remove duplicate code in DefineOpFamily().Tom Lane2010-07-16
| | | | | | | The code was probably meant to be this way all along, since the subroutine CreateOpFamily previously had only one caller. But it wasn't. KaiGai Kohei

* Fix several problems in pg_dump's handling of SQL/MED objects, notably failureTom Lane2010-07-14
| | | | | | | | | to dump a PUBLIC user mapping correctly, as per bug #5560 from Shigeru Hanada. Use the pg_user_mappings view rather than trying to access pg_user_mapping directly, so that the code doesn't fail when run by a non-superuser. And clean up some minor carelessness such as unsafe usage of fmtId(). Back-patch to 8.4 where this code was added.
* Allow full SSL certificate verification (wherein libpq checks its host nameTom Lane2010-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | parameter against server cert's CN field) to succeed in the case where both host and hostaddr are specified. As with the existing precedents for Kerberos, GSSAPI, SSPI, it is the calling application's responsibility that host and hostaddr match up --- we just use the host name as given. Per bug #5559 from Christopher Head. In passing, make the error handling and messages for the no-host-name-given failure more consistent among these four cases, and correct a lie in the documentation: we don't attempt to reverse-lookup host from hostaddr if host is missing. Back-patch to 8.4 where SSL cert verification was introduced.
* Teach EXPLAIN to print PARAM_EXEC Params as the referenced expressions,Tom Lane2010-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | rather than just $N. This brings the display of nestloop-inner-indexscan plans back to where it's been, and incidentally improves the display of SubPlan parameters as well. In passing, simplify the EXPLAIN code by having it deal primarily in the PlanState tree rather than separately searching Plan and PlanState trees. This is noticeably cleaner for subplans, and about a wash elsewhere. One small difference from previous behavior is that EXPLAIN will no longer qualify local variable references in inner-indexscan plan nodes, since it no longer sees such nodes as possibly referencing multiple tables. Vars referenced through PARAM_EXEC Params are still forcibly qualified, though, so I don't think the display is any more confusing than before. Adjust a couple of examples in the documentation to match this behavior.

| | | | | | | | | loop from being dropped, I missed subtransaction cleanup. Pinned portals must be dropped at subtransaction cleanup just as they are at main transaction cleanup. Per bug #5556 by Robert Walker. Backpatch to 8.0, 7.4 didn't have subtransactions.

* Make NestLoop plan nodes pass outer-relation variables into their innerTom Lane2010-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | relation using the general PARAM_EXEC executor parameter mechanism, rather than the ad-hoc kluge of passing the outer tuple down through ExecReScan. The previous method was hard to understand and could never be extended to handle parameters coming from multiple join levels. This patch doesn't change the set of possible plans nor have any significant performance effect, but it's necessary infrastructure for future generalization of the concept of an inner indexscan plan. ExecReScan's second parameter is now unused, so it's removed.

* Avoid an Assert failure in deconstruct_array() by making get_attstatsslot()Tom Lane2010-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | use the actual element type of the array it's disassembling, rather than trusting the type OID passed in by its caller. This is needed because sometimes the planner passes in a type OID that's only binary-compatible with the target column's type, rather than being an exact match. Per an example from Bernd Helmle. Possibly we should refactor get_attstatsslot/free_attstatsslot to not expect the caller to supply type ID data at all, but for now I'll just do the minimum-change fix. Back-patch to 7.4. Bernd's test case only crashes back to 8.0, but since these subroutines are the same in 7.4, I suspect there may be variant cases that would crash 7.4 as well.
* Fix ruleutils' get_variable() to print something useful for Vars referencingTom Lane2010-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | resjunk outputs of subquery tlists, instead of throwing an error. Per bug #5548 from Daniel Grace. We might at some point find we ought to back-patch this further than 9.0, but I think that such Vars can only occur as resjunk members of upper-level tlists, in which case the problem can't arise because prior versions didn't print resjunk tlist items in EXPLAIN VERBOSE.

* Add a hook in ExecCheckRTPerms().Robert Haas2010-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | This hook allows a loadable module to gain control when table permissions are checked. It is expected to be used by an eventual SE-PostgreSQL implementation, but there are other possible applications as well.
