make_greater_string() try harder to generate a string that's actually greater
than its input string. Before we just assumed that making a string that was
memcmp-greater was enough, but it is easy to generate examples where this is
not so when the locale is not C. Instead, loop until the relevant comparison
function agrees that the generated string is greater than the input.
Unfortunately this is probably not enough to guarantee that the generated
string is greater than all extensions of the input, so we cannot relax the
restriction to C locale for the LIKE/regex index optimization. But it should
at least improve the odds of getting a useful selectivity estimate in
prefix_selectivity(). Per example from Guillaume Smet.
Backpatch to 8.1, mainly because that's what the complainant is using...

negated-match operators. patternsel had been using the supplied operator as
though it were a positive-match operator, and thus obtaining a wrong result,
which was even more wrong after the caller subtracted it from 1. Seems
cleanest to give patternsel an explicit "negate" argument so that it knows
what's going on. Also install the same factorization scheme for pattern
join selectivity estimators; even though they are just stubs at the
moment, this may keep someone from making the same type of mistake when
they get filled out. Per report from Greg Mullane.
Backpatch to 8.2 --- previous releases do not show the problem because
patternsel() doesn't actually use the operator directly.

that have default expressions different from their parent. First, if the
parent table's default expression has to be split out as a separate
ALTER TABLE command, we need a dependency constraint to ensure that the
child's command is given second. This is because the ALTER TABLE on the
parent will propagate to the child. (We can't prevent that by using ONLY on
the parent's command, since it's possible that other children exist that
should receive the inherited default.) Second, if the child has a NULL
default where the parent does not, we have to explicitly say DEFAULT NULL on
the child in order for this state to be preserved after reload. (The latter
actually doesn't work right because of a backend bug, but that is a separate
issue.)
Backpatch as far as 8.0. 7.x pg_dump has enough issues with altered tables
(due to lack of dependency analysis) that trying to fix this one doesn't seem
very productive.

if either of the input relations can legally be joined to any other rels using
join clauses. This avoids uselessly (and expensively) considering a lot of
really stupid join paths when there is a join restriction with a large
footprint, that is, lots of relations inside its LHS or RHS. My patch of
15-Feb-2007 had been causing the code to consider joining *every* combination
of rels inside such a group, which is exponentially bad :-(. With this
behavior, clauseless bushy joins will be done if necessary, but they'll be
put off as long as possible. Per report from Jakub Ouhrabka.
Backpatch to 8.2. We might someday want to backpatch to 8.1 as well, but 8.1
does not have the problem for OUTER JOIN nests, only for IN-clauses, so it's
not clear anyone's very likely to hit it in practice; and the current patch
doesn't apply cleanly to 8.1.

of the sequence. Since OWNED BY never existed before 8.2, this seems
unlikely to create any compatibility issues. Other forms of ALTER SEQUENCE
continue to do what they did before, namely update currval to match the
sequence's actual last_val. That seems wrong on consideration, but we'll
not change it in a minor release --- 8.3 will make that fix.

neglected to test whether an outer join's join-condition actually refers to
the lower outer join it is looking at. (The comment correctly described what
was supposed to happen, but the code didn't do it...) This often resulted in
adding an unnecessary constraint on the join order of the two outer joins,
which was bad enough. However, it also seems to expose a performance
problem in an older patch (from 15-Feb): once we've decided that there is a
join ordering constraint, we will start trying clauseless joins between every
combination of rels within the constraint, which pointlessly eats up lots of
time and space if there are numerous rels below the outer join. That probably
needs to be revisited :-(. Per gripe from Jakub Ouhrabka.

3-Apr and 4-Apr to declare interface functions properly and eliminate casts,
thereby fixing potential problems on 64-bit machines; and changes of 13-Jul
to volatile-qualify some variables to suppress compiler warnings.
Per discussion, we're only worrying about Python 2.5 in PG 8.2 and up,
so no need to patch further back.

it affects. The original coding neglected tablespace entirely (causing
the indexes to move to the database's default tablespace) and for an index
belonging to a UNIQUE or PRIMARY KEY constraint, it would actually try to
assign the parent table's reloptions to the index :-(. Per bug #3672 and
subsequent investigation.
8.0 and 8.1 did not have reloptions, but the tablespace bug is present.

simplification gets detoasted before it is incorporated into a Const node.
Otherwise, if an immutable function were to return a TOAST pointer (an
unlikely case, but it can be made to happen), we would end up with a plan
that depends on the continued existence of the out-of-line toast datum.

eval_const_expressions simplifies this to just "WHERE false", but we have
already done pull_up_IN_clauses so the IN join will be done, or at least
planned, anyway. The trouble case comes when the sub-SELECT is itself a join
and we decide to implement the IN by unique-ifying the sub-SELECT outputs:
with no remaining reference to the output Vars in WHERE, we won't have
propagated the Vars up to the upper join point, leading to "variable not found
in subplan target lists" error. Fix by adding an extra scan of in_info_list
and forcing all Vars mentioned therein to be propagated up to the IN join
point. Per bug report from Miroslav Sulc.

happen condition can happen given incorrect input. The real problem is that
gram.y should try harder to distinguish * from "*" --- the latter is a legal
column name per spec, and someday we ought to treat it that way. However
fixing that is too invasive for a back-patch, and it's too late for the 8.3
cycle too. So just reduce the Assert to a plain elog for now. Per report
from NikhilS.

no-longer-needed pages at the end of a table. We thought we could throw away
pages containing HEAPTUPLE_DEAD tuples; but this is not so, because such
tuples very likely have index entries pointing at them, and we wouldn't have
removed the index entries. The problem only emerges in a somewhat unlikely
race condition: the dead tuples have to have been inserted by a transaction
that later aborted, and this has to have happened between VACUUM's initial
scan of the page and then rechecking it for empty in count_nondeletable_pages.
But that timespan will include an index-cleaning pass, so it's not all that
hard to hit. This seems to explain a couple of previously unsolved bug
reports.

someday.) Per report from Sergey Koposov.

an exclusive lock on the table at this point, which we want to release as soon
as possible. This is called in the phase of lazy vacuum where we truncate the
empty pages at the end of the table.
An alternative solution would be to lower the vacuum delay settings before
starting the truncating phase, but this doesn't work very well in autovacuum
due to the autobalancing code (which can cause other processes to change our
cost delay settings). This case could be considered in the balancing code, but
it is simpler this way.

the number of rows likely to be produced by a query such as
SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 USING (key) WHERE t2.key IS NULL;
What this is doing is selecting for t1 rows with no match in t2, and thus
it may produce a significant number of rows even if the t2.key table column
contains no nulls at all. 8.2 thinks the table column's null fraction is
relevant and thus may estimate no rows out, which results in terrible plans
if there are more joins above this one. A proper fix for this will involve
passing much more information about the context of a clause to the selectivity
estimator functions than we ever have. There's no time left to write such a
patch for 8.3, and it wouldn't be back-patchable into 8.2 anyway. Instead,
put in an ad-hoc test to defeat the normal table-stats-based estimation when
an IS NULL test is evaluated at an outer join, and just use a constant
estimate instead --- I went with 0.5 for lack of a better idea. This won't
catch every case but it will catch the typical ways of writing such queries,
and it seems unlikely to make things worse for other queries.

generating the tuples has resjunk output columns. This is not possible for
simple table scans but can happen when evaluating a whole-row Var for a view.
Per example from Patryk Kordylewski. The problem exists back to 8.0 but
I'm not going to risk back-patching further than 8.2 because of the many
changes in this area.

sets for outer joins, in the light of bug #3588 and additional thought and
experimentation. The original methodology was fatally flawed for nests of
more than two outer joins: it got the relationships between adjacent joins
right, but didn't always come to the right conclusions about whether a join
could be interchanged with one two or more levels below it. This was largely
caused by a mistaken idea that we should use the min_lefthand + min_righthand
sets of a sub-join as the minimum left or right input set of an upper join
when we conclude that the sub-join can't commute with the upper one. If
there's a still-lower join that the sub-join *can* commute with, this method
led us to think that that one could commute with the topmost join; which it
can't. Another problem (not directly connected to bug #3588) was that
make_outerjoininfo's processing-order-dependent method for enforcing outer
join identity #3 didn't work right: if we decided that join A could safely
commute with lower join B, we dropped all information about sub-joins under B
that join A could perhaps not safely commute with, because we removed B's
entire min_righthand from A's.
To fix, make an explicit computation of all inner join combinations that occur
below an outer join, and add to that the full syntactic relsets of any lower
outer joins that we determine it can't commute with. This method gives much
more direct enforcement of the outer join rearrangement identities, and it
turns out not to cost a lot of additional bookkeeping.
Thanks to Richard Harris for the bug report and test case.

relcache entry after having heap_close'd it. This could lead to misbehavior
if a relcache flush wiped out the cache entry meanwhile. In 8.2 there is a
very real risk of CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY using the wrong relid for locking
and waiting purposes. I think the bug is only cosmetic in 8.0 and 8.1,
because their transgression is limited to using RelationGetRelationName(rel)
in an ereport message immediately after heap_close, and there's no way (except
with special debugging options) for a cache flush to occur in that interval.
Not quite sure that it's cosmetic in 7.4, but seems best to patch anyway.
Found by trying to run the regression tests with CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS enabled.
Maybe we should try to do that on a regular basis --- it's awfully slow,
but perhaps some fast buildfarm machine could do it once in awhile.

row within one query: we were firing check triggers before all the updates
were done, leading to bogus failures. Fix by making the triggers queued by
an RI update go at the end of the outer query's trigger event list, thereby
effectively making the processing "breadth-first". This was indeed how it
worked pre-8.0, so the bug does not occur in the 7.x branches.

hash table is allocated in a child context of the agg node's memory
context, MemoryContextReset() will reset but *not* delete the child
context. Since ExecReScanAgg() proceeds to build a new hash table
from scratch (in a new sub-context), this results in leaking the
header for the previous memory context. Therefore, use
MemoryContextResetAndDeleteChildren() instead.

the cause of the leak.
