Plug the remaining holes. Also, disallow transient connections in functions

part of a sequence of operations on the same connection). Joe Conway

are unnecessarily allocated on the heap rather than the stack. If the
StringInfo doesn't outlive the stack frame in which it is created,
there is no need to allocate it on the heap via makeStringInfo() --
stack allocation is faster. While it's not a big deal unless the
code is in a critical path, I don't see a reason not to save a few
cycles -- using stack allocation is not less readable.
I also cleaned up a bit of code along the way: moved variable
declarations into a more tightly-enclosing scope where possible,
fixed some pointless copying of strings in dblink, etc.

indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
if there isn't one already open. Upon dblink_close, only commit
the open transaction if it was started by dblink_open, and only
then when all cursors opened by dblink_open are closed. The transaction
accounting is done individually for all named connections, plus
the persistent unnamed connection.

code and documentation a little.
spotted by Qingqing Zhou. The HASH_ENTER action now automatically
fails with elog(ERROR) on out-of-memory --- which incidentally lets
us eliminate duplicate error checks in quite a bunch of places. If
you really need the old return-NULL-on-out-of-memory behavior, you
can ask for HASH_ENTER_NULL. But there is now an Assert in that path
checking that you aren't hoping to get that behavior in a palloc-based
hash table.
Along the way, remove the old HASH_FIND_SAVE/HASH_REMOVE_SAVED actions,
which were not being used anywhere anymore, and were surely too ugly
and unsafe to want to see revived again.
indexes. Replace all heap_openr and index_openr calls by heap_open
and index_open. Remove runtime lookups of catalog OID numbers in
various places. Remove relcache's support for looking up system
catalogs by name. Bulky but mostly very boring patch ...
change saves a great deal of space in pg_proc and its primary index,
and it eliminates the former requirement that INDEX_MAX_KEYS and
FUNC_MAX_ARGS have the same value. INDEX_MAX_KEYS is still embedded
in the on-disk representation (because it affects index tuple header
size), but FUNC_MAX_ARGS is not. I believe it would now be possible
to increase FUNC_MAX_ARGS at little cost, but haven't experimented yet.
There are still a lot of vestigial references to FUNC_MAX_ARGS, which
I will clean up in a separate pass. However, getting rid of it
altogether would require changing the FunctionCallInfoData struct,
and I'm not sure I want to buy into that.

The code was trying to find a connection by name when it already had an

value, but some did not -- it is safer to just bail out).
Also, cleanup pgstat.c to use elog(ERROR) rather than elog(LOG) followed

results with tuples as ordinary varlena Datums. This commit does not
in itself do much for us, except eliminate the horrid memory leak
associated with evaluation of whole-row variables. However, it lays the
groundwork for allowing composite types as table columns, and perhaps
some other useful features as well. Per my proposal of a few days ago.

with ReturnSetInfo->expectedDesc. This allows custom datatypes
(e.g. from tsearch2) to be returned at runtime. Previous behavior
depended on the type oid to match between the remote and local
database, which obviously doesn't work well for custom types.
Per report from Mark Gibson.
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.
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.
