* Need to use pg_perm_setlocale when setting LC_CTYPE and LC_COLLATE at startup.Heikki Linnakangas2009-07-08
| | | | | | | | Otherwise, the LC_CTYPE/COLLATE setting gets reverted when using plperl, which leads to incorrect query results and index corruption. This was accidentally broken in the per-database locale patch in 8.4. Pointed out by Andrew Gierth.
* Add missing HOUR TO SECOND option to list of possible INTERVAL field sets,Tom Lane2009-07-08
| | | | | | as noted by Sebastien Flaesch. Also update the claim that we simply throw away fields outside this set --- that got changed later to only discard less-significant fields.
* Fix ancient bug in handling of to_char modifier 'TH', when used with HH.Heikki Linnakangas2009-07-06
| | | | | In what seems like an oversight, we used to treat 'TH' the same as lowercase 'th', but only with HH/HH12.
* Fix set_append_rel_pathlist() to deal intelligently with cases whereTom Lane2009-07-06
| | | | | | | | | | | substituting a child rel's output expressions into the appendrel's restriction clauses yields a pseudoconstant restriction. We might be able to skip scanning that child rel entirely (if we get constant FALSE), or generate a one-time filter. 8.3 more or less accidentally generated plans that weren't completely stupid in these cases, but that was only because an extra recursive level of subquery_planner() always occurred and allowed const-simplification to happen. 8.4's ability to pull up appendrel members with non-Var outputs exposes the fact that we need to work harder here. Per gripe from Sergey Burladyan.
* Per SQL spec (in particular, the grammar in SQL:2008 7.13) we should allowTom Lane2009-07-06
| | | | | | | parentheses around the <query expression body> that follows a WITH clause, eg with cte(foo) as ( values(0) ) ((select foo from cte)); This seems to be just an oversight/thinko in gram.y. Noted while experimenting with bug #4902.
* Fix handling of changed-Param signaling for CteScan plan nodes. We were usingTom Lane2009-07-06
| | | | | | | | | | the "cteParam" as a proxy for the possibility that the underlying CTE plan depends on outer-level variables or Params, but that doesn't work very well because it sometimes causes calling subqueries to be treated as SubPlans when they could be InitPlans. This is inefficient and also causes the outright failure exhibited in bug #4902. Instead, leave the cteParam out of it and copy the underlying CTE plan's extParams directly. Per bug #4902 from Marko Tiikkaja.

* Revert addition of "o" to tar options. This was intended to fix bug #4883,REL8_4_0Tom Lane2009-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | but the cure appears to be worse than the disease. It turns out that GNU tar versions 1.14.x misinterpret -o as --same-owner, not --no-same-owner, leading to exactly the wrong behavior for both root and nonroot users. While that bug has been fixed for nearly five years, these tar versions are still found in the wild, notably in OS X 10.4. Given that #4883 was the first complaint we'd heard, it's definitely not worth fixing at the risk of breaking things for other users. Perhaps revisit at a later date when we're not up against a release deadline.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | archive recovery. Invent a separate state variable and inquiry function for XLogInsertAllowed() to clarify some tests and make the management of writing the end-of-recovery checkpoint less klugy. Fix several places that were incorrectly testing InRecovery when they should be looking at RecoveryInProgress or XLogInsertAllowed (because they will now be executed in the bgwriter not startup process). Clarify handling of bad LSNs passed to XLogFlush during recovery. Use a spinlock for setting/testing SharedRecoveryInProgress. Improve quite a lot of comments. Heikki and Tom

* Fix some serious bugs in archive recovery, now that bgwriter is activeHeikki Linnakangas2009-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | during it: When bgwriter is active, the startup process can't perform mdsync() correctly because it won't see the fsync requests accumulated in bgwriter's private pendingOpsTable. Therefore make bgwriter responsible for the end-of-recovery checkpoint as well, when it's active. When bgwriter is active (= archive recovery), the startup process must not accumulate fsync requests to its own pendingOpsTable, since bgwriter won't see them there when it performs restartpoints. Make startup process drop its pendingOpsTable when bgwriter is launched to avoid that. Update minimum recovery point one last time when leaving archive recovery. It won't be updated by the end-of-recovery checkpoint because XLogFlush() sees us as out of recovery already. This fixes bug #4879 reported by Fujii Masao.

* The code to unlink dropped relations in FinishPreparedTransaction() wasHeikki Linnakangas2009-06-25

* Disable pg_standby -l option because the backend doesn't expect the recoveredHeikki Linnakangas2009-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | file to be a symlink. We tried to fix this issue with an earlier server-side patch, but it didn't fix the whole issue. The same bug is present in older releases as well, but the 8.4 train is about to leave the station, and I'm not sure if have consensus on whether we can remove the -l option in back-branches or do we need to attempt a server-side fix to make symlinking safe. Patch by Simon Riggs, per discussion on bug identified by Fujii Masao.

* Fix an ancient error in dist_ps (distance from point to line segment), whichTom Lane2009-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | a number of other geometric operators also depend on. It miscalculated the slope of the perpendicular to the given line segment anytime that slope was other than 0, infinite, or +/-1. In some cases the error would be masked because the true closest point on the line segment was one of its endpoints rather than the intersection point, but in other cases it could give an arbitrarily bad answer. Per bug #4872 from Nick Roosevelt. Bug goes clear back to Berkeley days, so patch all supported branches. Make a couple of cosmetic adjustments while at it.
* Fix the makefiles to fail cleanly if Perl is needed but not present. ThisTom Lane2009-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | used to work as intended, but got broken some time ago (a quoted empty string is not an empty string), and got broken some more by the changes to generate ecpg's preproc.y automatically. Given all the unprotected uses of $(PERL) elsewhere, it seems best to make use of the $(missing) script rather than trying to ensure each such use is protected individually. Also fix various bits of documentation that omitted to mention Perl as a requirement for building from a CVS pull. Per a complaint from Robert Haas.

* For bulk write operations (eg COPY IN), use a ring buffer of 16MB insteadTom Lane2009-06-22
| | | | | | | | of the 256KB limit originally enforced by a patch committed 2008-11-06. Per recent test results, the smaller size resulted in an undesirable decrease in bulk data loading speed, due to COPY processing frequently getting blocked for WAL flushing. This area might need more tweaking later, but this setting seems to be good enough for 8.4.
