ebbd2edf82 Seems the runtime.sgml and perform.sgml patches combined are 
incompatible.

I believe the attached xref meets the intent of the perform.sgml change.

fce529e102 Most of the synopsis areas for DROP commands use "name" as the 
identifier, while some areas do not.

The attached converts be below to "name":
conversion_name
index_name


The below have an existing, initdb supplied, entity named "name".  As
such, it could be confusing for the reader to see that identifier used
in the example.

domainname

> * -Add IPv6 capability to INET/CIDR types
 2003-06-24 23:05:20 +00:00
Bruce Momjian
945543d919 Add ipv6 address parsing support to 'inet' and 'cidr' data types. 
Regression tests for IPv6 operations added.

        Documentation updated to document IPv6 bits.

        Stop treating IPv4 as an "unsigned int" and IPv6 as an array of
        characters.  Instead, always use the array of characters so we
        can have one function fits all.  This makes bitncmp(), addressOK(),
        and several other functions "just work" on both address families.

        add family() function which returns integer 4 or 6 for IPv4 or
        IPv6.  (See examples below)  Note that to add this new function
        you will need to dump/initdb/reload or find the correct magic
        to add the function to the postgresql function catalogs.

        IPv4 addresses always sort before IPv6.

        On disk we use AF_INET for IPv4, and AF_INET+1 for IPv6 addresses.
        This prevents the need for a dump and reload, but lets IPv6 parsing
        work on machines without AF_INET6.

        To select all IPv4 addresses from a table:

                select * from foo where family(addr) = 4 ...

        Order by and other bits should all work.

bff0422b6c Revise hash join and hash aggregation code to use the same datatype- 
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.

1bd22f55cf Disallow dollar sign in operator names, instead allow it as a non-first 
character in identifiers.  The first change eliminates the current need
to put spaces around parameter references, as in "x<=$2".  The second
change improves compatibility with Oracle and some other RDBMSes.  This
was discussed and agreed to back in January, but did not get done.

8bfe93c5c8 pg_dump and pg_restore were stripping quotes and downcasing some but 
not all SQL identifiers taken from command line arguments.  We decided
years ago that that was a bad idea: identifiers taken from the command
line should be treated as literally correct.  Remove the inconsistent
code that has crept in recently.  Also fix pg_dump so that the combination
of --schema and --table does what you'd expect, namely dump exactly one
table from exactly one schema.  Per gripe from Deepak Bhole of Red Hat.

e649796f12 Implement outer-level aggregates to conform to the SQL spec, with 
extensions to support our historical behavior.  An aggregate belongs
to the closest query level of any of the variables in its argument,
or the current query level if there are no variables (e.g., COUNT(*)).
The implementation involves adding an agglevelsup field to Aggref,
and treating outer aggregates like outer variables at planning time.

fc8d970cbc Replace functional-index facility with expressional indexes. Any column 
of an index can now be a computed expression instead of a simple variable.
Restrictions on expressions are the same as for predicates (only immutable
functions, no sub-selects).  This fixes problems recently introduced with
inlining SQL functions, because the inlining transformation is applied to
both expression trees so the planner can still match them up.  Along the
way, improve efficiency of handling index predicates (both predicates and
index expressions are now cached by the relcache) and fix 7.3 oversight
that didn't record dependencies of predicate expressions.
