Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.

values: don't throw away perfectly good hash bits, and increase the shift
distances so as to provide more separation in the common case where some of
the key values are small integers (and so their hashes are too, because
hashfunc.c doesn't try all that hard). This reduces the runtime of
SearchCatCache by a factor of 4 in an example provided by Greg Stark,
in which the planner spends a whole lot of time searching the two-key
STATRELATT cache. It seems unlikely to hurt in other cases, but maybe
we could do even better?

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.

been initialized yet. This can happen because there are code paths that call
SysCacheGetAttr() on a tuple originally fetched from a different syscache
(hopefully on the same catalog) than the one specified in the call. It
doesn't seem useful or robust to try to prevent that from happening, so just
improve the function to cope instead. Per bug#2678 from Jeff Trout. The
specific example shown by Jeff is new in 8.1, but to be on the safe side
I'm backpatching 8.0 as well. We could patch 7.x similarly but I think
that's probably overkill, given the lack of evidence of old bugs of this ilk.

(table or index) before trying to open its relcache entry. This fixes
race conditions in which someone else commits a change to the relation's
catalog entries while we are in process of doing relcache load. Problems
of that ilk have been reported sporadically for years, but it was not
really practical to fix until recently --- for instance, the recent
addition of WAL-log support for in-place updates helped.
Along the way, remove pg_am.amconcurrent: all AMs are now expected to support
concurrent update.

remove the infrastructure needed to enforce the limit, ie, the global
LRU list of cache entries. On small-to-middling databases this wins
because maintaining the LRU list is a waste of time. On large databases
this wins because it's better to keep more cache entries (we assume
such users can afford to use some more per-backend memory than was
contemplated in the Berkeley-era catcache design). This provides a
noticeable improvement in the speed of psql \d on a 10000-table
database, though it doesn't make it instantaneous.
While at it, use per-catcache settings for the number of hash buckets
per catcache, rather than the former one-size-fits-all value. It's a
bit silly to be using the same number of hash buckets for, eg, pg_am
and pg_attribute. The specific values I used might need some tuning,
but they seem to be in the right ballpark based on CATCACHE_STATS
results from the standard regression tests.

dead and have become unreferenced. Before 8.1, such members were left
for AtEOXact_CatCache() to clean up, but now AtEOXact_CatCache isn't
supposed to have anything to do. In an assert-enabled build this bug
leads to an assertion failure at transaction end, but in a non-assert
build the dead member is effectively just a small memory leak.
Per report from Jeremy Drake.

in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).

SearchCatCacheList and ReleaseCatCacheList. Previously, we incremented
and decremented the refcounts of list member tuples along with the list
itself, but that's unnecessary, and very expensive when the list is big.
It's cheaper to change only the list refcount. When we are considering
deleting a cache entry, we have to check not only its own refcount but
its parent list's ... but it's easy to arrange the code so that this
check is not made in any commonly-used paths, so the cost is really nil.
The bigger gain though is to refrain from DLMoveToFront'ing each individual
member tuple each time the list is referenced. To keep some semblance
of fair space management, lists are just marked as used or not since the
last cache cleanout search, and we do a MoveToFront pass only when about
to run a cleanout. In combination, these changes reduce the costs of
SearchCatCacheList and ReleaseCatCacheList from about 4.5% of pgbench
runtime to under 1%, according to my gprof results.

ResourceOwner mechanism already released all reference counts for the
cache entries; therefore, we do not need to scan the catcache or relcache
at transaction end, unless we want to do it as a debugging crosscheck.
Do the crosscheck only in Assert mode. This is the same logic we had
previously installed in AtEOXact_Buffers to avoid overhead with large
numbers of shared buffers. I thought it'd be a good idea to do it here
too, in view of Kari Lavikka's recent report showing a real-world case
where AtEOXact_CatCache is taking a significant fraction of runtime.

need it. Also fix unnecessary inclusions and bad inclusion order in

indexes. Replace all heap_openr and index_openr calls by heap_open

This restores the system's ability to warn about leaks to what it was
before 8.0. Not really a user-level bug, but helpful for development.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...

(1) Replace while loop with the new forboth() construct in
parser/analyze.c
(2) Replace lcons() with lappend() in SearchCatCacheList(). Since these
now have the same performance, there is no reason to prefer lcons() in
this case, and using lappend() leads to cleaner code.
(3) Improve the name of the second parameter to for_each_cell()

keep track of portal-related resources separately from transaction-related
resources. This allows cursors to work in a somewhat sane fashion with
nested transactions. For now, cursor behavior is non-subtransactional,
that is a cursor's state does not roll back if you abort a subtransaction
that fetched from the cursor. We might want to change that later.

In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was
merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that
design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch
fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list
length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer.
A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data
about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer
to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes.
The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope,
be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are
still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of
the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.

Remove the 'strategy map' code, which was a large amount of mechanism
that no longer had any use except reverse-mapping from procedure OID to
strategy number. Passing the strategy number to the index AM in the
first place is simpler and faster.
This is a preliminary step in planned support for cross-datatype index
operations. I'm committing it now since the ScanKeyEntryInitialize()
API change touches quite a lot of files, and I want to commit those
changes before the tree drifts under me.

specific hash functions used by hash indexes, rather than the old
not-datatype-aware ComputeHashFunc routine. This makes it safe to do
hash joining on several datatypes that previously couldn't use hashing.
The sets of datatypes that are hash indexable and hash joinable are now
exactly the same, whereas before each had some that weren't in the other.

(overlaying low byte of page size) and add HEAP_HASOID bit to t_infomask,
per earlier discussion. Simplify scheme for overlaying fields in tuple
header (no need for cmax to live in more than one place). Don't try to
clear infomask status bits in tqual.c --- not safe to do it there. Don't
try to force output table of a SELECT INTO to have OIDs, either. Get rid
of unnecessarily complex three-state scheme for TupleDesc.tdhasoids, which
has already caused one recent failure. Improve documentation.

bitmap, if present).
Per Tom Lane's suggestion the information whether a tuple has an oid
or not is carried in the tuple descriptor. For debugging reasons
tdhasoid is of type char, not bool. There are predefined values for
WITHOID, WITHOUTOID and UNDEFOID.
This patch has been generated against a cvs snapshot from last week
and I don't expect it to apply cleanly to current sources. While I
post it here for public review, I'm working on a new version against a
current snapshot. (There's been heavy activity recently; hope to
catch up some day ...)
This is a long patch; if it is too hard to swallow, I can provide it
in smaller pieces:
Part 1: Accessor macros
Part 2: tdhasoid in TupDesc
Part 3: Regression test
Part 4: Parameter withoid to heap_addheader
Part 5: Eliminate t_oid from HeapTupleHeader
Part 2 is the most hairy part because of changes in the executor and
even in the parser; the other parts are straightforward.
Up to part 4 the patched postmaster stays binary compatible to
databases created with an unpatched version. Part 5 is small (100
lines) and finally breaks compatibility.

PostgreSQL. This hash function replaces the one used by hash indexes and
the catalog cache. Hash joins use a different, relatively poor-quality
hash function, but I'll fix that later.
As suggested by Tom Lane, this patch also changes the size of the fixed
hash table used by the catalog cache to be a power-of-2 (instead of a
prime: I chose 256 instead of 257). This allows the catcache to lookup
hash buckets using a simple bitmask. This should improve the performance
of the catalog cache slightly, since the previous method (modulo a
prime) was slow.
In my tests, this improves the performance of hash indexes by between 4%
and 8%; the performance when using btree indexes or seqscans is
basically unchanged.

o Change all current CVS messages of NOTICE to WARNING. We were going
to do this just before 7.3 beta but it has to be done now, as you will
see below.
o Change current INFO messages that should be controlled by
client_min_messages to NOTICE.
o Force remaining INFO messages, like from EXPLAIN, VACUUM VERBOSE, etc.
to always go to the client.
o Remove INFO from the client_min_messages options and add NOTICE.
Seems we do need three non-ERROR elog levels to handle the various
behaviors we need for these messages.
Regression passed.

speed up repetitive failed searches; per pghackers discussion in late
January. inval.c logic substantially simplified, since we can now treat
inserts and deletes alike as far as inval events are concerned. Some
repair work needed in heap_create_with_catalog, which turns out to have
been doing CommandCounterIncrement at a point where the new relation has
non-self-consistent catalog entries. With the new inval code, that
resulted in assert failures during a relcache entry rebuild.
