* Fix new warnings from GCC 7Peter Eisentraut2017-05-16
| | | | | This addresses the new warning types -Wformat-truncation -Wformat-overflow that are part of -Wall, via -Wformat, in GCC 7.
* Introduce durable_rename() and durable_link_or_rename().Andres Freund2016-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Renaming a file using rename(2) is not guaranteed to be durable in face of crashes; especially on filesystems like xfs and ext4 when mounted with data=writeback. To be certain that a rename() atomically replaces the previous file contents in the face of crashes and different filesystems, one has to fsync the old filename, rename the file, fsync the new filename, fsync the containing directory. This sequence is not generally adhered to currently; which exposes us to data loss risks. To avoid having to repeat this arduous sequence, introduce durable_rename(), which wraps all that. Also add durable_link_or_rename(). Several places use link() (with a fallback to rename()) to rename a file, trying to avoid replacing the target file out of paranoia. Some of those rename sequences need to be durable as well. There seems little reason extend several copies of the same logic, so centralize the link() callers. This commit does not yet make use of the new functions; they're used in a followup commit.

* Sync unlogged relations to disk after they have been reset.Andres Freund2014-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlogged relations are only reset when performing a unclean restart. That means they have to be synced to disk during clean shutdowns. During normal processing that's achieved by registering a buffer's file to be fsynced at the next checkpoint when flushed. But ResetUnloggedRelations() doesn't go through the buffer manager, so nothing will force reset relations to disk before the next shutdown checkpoint. So just make ResetUnloggedRelations() fsync the newly created main forks to disk. Discussion: 20140912112246.GA4984@alap3.anarazel.de Backpatch to 9.1 where unlogged tables were introduced.

* Update copyright for 2014Bruce Momjian2014-01-07
| | | | | Update all files in head, and files COPYRIGHT and legal.sgml in all back branches.
* Move relpath() to libpgcommonAlvaro Herrera2013-02-21
| | | | | | | This enables non-backend code, such as pg_xlogdump, to use it easily. The previous location, in src/backend/catalog/catalog.c, made that essentially impossible because that file depends on many backend-only facilities; so this needs to live separately.

* Support unlogged tables.Robert Haas2010-12-29
The contents of an unlogged table are WAL-logged; thus, they are not available on standby servers and are truncated whenever the database system enters recovery. Indexes on unlogged tables are also unlogged. Unlogged GiST indexes are not currently supported.
