* Mark the float8 -> int8 cast as implicit. This resolves the problemTom Lane2002-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | pointed out by Barry Lind: UPDATE bigintcol = 10000000000 fails because the constant is initially taken as float8. We really need a better way, but it's not gonna happen for 7.3. Also, remove int4reltime() function, which is redundant with the existing binary-compatibility coercion path from int4 to reltime, and probably has been unreachable code for a long while.
* Code review for domain-constraints patch. Use a new ConstraintTest nodeTom Lane2002-08-31
| | | | | | | | | type for runtime constraint checks, instead of misusing the parse-time Constraint node for the purpose. Fix some damage introduced into type coercion logic; in particular ensure that a coerced expression tree will read out the correct result type when inspected (patch had broken some RelabelType cases). Enforce domain NOT NULL constraints against columns that are omitted from an INSERT.

* Code review for pg_locks feature. Make shmemoffset of PROCLOCK structsTom Lane2002-08-31
| | | | | | | | available (else there's no way to interpret the list links). Change pg_locks view to show transaction ID locks separately from ordinary relation locks. Avoid showing N duplicate rows when the same lock is held multiple times (seems unlikely that users care about exact hold count). Improve documentation.
* Add expected tuple descriptor to ReturnSetInfo information for tableTom Lane2002-08-30
| | | | | | functions, per suggestion from John Gray and Joe Conway. Also, fix plpgsql RETURN NEXT to verify that returned values match the expected tupdesc.
* AUTOCOMMIT mode is now an available backend GUC variable; setting itTom Lane2002-08-30
| | | | | | | | | to false provides more SQL-spec-compliant behavior than we had before. I am not sure that setting it false is actually a good idea yet; there is a lot of client-side code that will probably be broken by turning autocommit off. But it's a start. Loosely based on a patch by David Van Wie.

I've attached a patch which should fix these problems. Neil Conway
* Prevent problem with extra-long password packets from allocating lots ofBruce Momjian2002-08-29
| | | | | | memory. Neil Conway
* This patch reserves the last superuser_reserved_connections slots forBruce Momjian2002-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | connections by the superuser only. This patch replaces the last patch I sent a couple of days ago. It closes a connection that has not been authorised by a superuser if it would leave less than the GUC variable ReservedBackends (superuser_reserved_connections in postgres.conf) backend process slots free in the SISeg. This differs to the first patch which only reserved the last ReservedBackends slots in the procState array. This has made the free slot test more expensive due to the use of a lock. After thinking about a comment on the first patch I've also made it a fatal error if the number of reserved slots is not less than the maximum number of connections. Nigel J. Andrews
* Adjust nodeFunctionscan.c to reset transient memory context between callsTom Lane2002-08-29

* backend where a statically sized buffer is written to. Most of theseBruce Momjian2002-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | should be pretty safe in practice, but it's probably better to be safe than sorry. I was actually looking for cases where NAMEDATALEN is assumed to be 32, but only found one. That's fixed too, as well as a few bits of code cleanup. Neil Conway
* The following small patch provides a couple of minor updates (againstBruce Momjian2002-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | CVS HEAD): Amended "strings" regression test. TOAST tests now insert two values with storage set to "external", to exercise properly the TOAST slice routines which fetch only a subset of the chunks. Changed now-misleading comment on AlterTableCreateToastTable in tablecmds.c, because both columns of the index on a toast table are now used. John Gray

* I attach a little patch to make CLUSTER set and reset the indisclusteredBruce Momjian2002-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bit on the indexes. I also attach clusterdb and clusterdb.sgml; both of them are blatant rips of vacuumdb and vacuumdb.sgml, but get the job done. Please review them, as I'm probably making a lot of mistakes with SGML and I can't compile it here. vacuumdb itself is not very comfortable to use when the databases have passwords, because it has to connect once for each table (I can probably make it connect only once for each database; should I?). Because of this I added a mention of PGPASSWORDFILE in the documentation, but I don't know if that is the correct place for that. Alvaro Herrera

* Increase WIDTH_THRESHOLD from 256 to 1K. This addresses recent observationTom Lane2002-08-26

| | | | | | | | | | array header, and to compute sizing and alignment of array elements the same way normal tuple access operations do --- viz, using the tupmacs.h macros att_addlength and att_align. This makes the world safe for arrays of cstrings or intervals, and should make it much easier to write array-type-polymorphic functions; as examples see the cleanups of array_out and contrib/array_iterator.
