739a0566a6 This should be a slighly more complete patch for commands/command.c
AlterTableAddConstraint.  The major changes from the last patch
are that it should hopefully check for references to temp tables
(not in the shadow case, but at defination time) from permanent tables in
foreign keys and refuse them and that it doesn't allow the table(s)
being constrained to be views (because those cases don't currently
work).

6bfe64032e Cleanup of code for creating index entries. Functional indexes with
pass-by-ref data types --- eg, an index on lower(textfield) --- no longer
leak memory during index creation or update.  Clean up a lot of redundant
code ... did you know that copy, vacuum, truncate, reindex, extend index,
and bootstrap each basically duplicated the main executor's logic for
extracting information about an index and preparing index entries?
Functional indexes should be a little faster now too, due to removal
of repeated function lookups.
CREATE INDEX 'opt_type' clause is deimplemented by these changes,
but I haven't removed it from the parser yet (need to merge with
Thomas' latest change set first).

be703cd9e8 Implement nested block comments in the backend and in psql.
Include updates for the comment.sql regression test.
Implement SET SESSION CHARACTERISTICS and SET DefaultXactIsoLevel.

 and SET AutoCommit in the parser only.
 Need to add code to actually do something.
Implement WITHOUT TIME ZONE type qualifier.
Define SCHEMA keyword, along with stubbed-out grammar.
Implement "[IN|INOUT|OUT] [varname] type" function arguments

9191d684a7 Planner did the wrong thing with index-scan-backward plans: generated
them, but forgot to attach relevant restriction clauses, so that the
plan represented a scan over the whole table with restrictions applied
as qpquals not indexquals.  Another day, another bug...

cb292206c5 Remove a bunch of unused configure tests, in particular cases where
* the result is not recorded anywhere
* the result is not used anywhere
* the result is only used in some places, whereas others have been getting away with it
* the result is used improperly

Also make command line options handling a little better (e.g., --disable-locale,
while redundant, should really still *dis*able).

badce86a2c First stage of reclaiming memory in executor by resetting short-term
memory contexts.  Currently, only leaks in expressions executed as
quals or projections are handled.  Clean up some old dead cruft in
executor while at it --- unused fields in state nodes, that sort of thing.

46fb9c29e2 Here is the patch with memory leak checker. This checker allow detect
in-chunk leaks, overwrite-next-chunk leaks and overwrite block-freeptr leaks.

A in-chunk leak --- if something overwrite space after wanted (via palloc()
size, but it is still inside chunk. For example

        x = palloc(12);         /* create 16b chunk */
        memset(x, '#', 13);

this leak is in the current source total invisible, because chunk is 16b and
leak is in the "align space".

 For this feature I add data_size to StandardChunk, and all memory which go
from AllocSetAlloc() is marked as 0x7F.

 The MemoryContextCheck() is compiled '#ifdef USE_ASSERT_CHECKING'.

I add this checking to 'tcop/postgres.c' and is active after each backend
query, but it is probably not sufficient, because some MemoryContext exist
only during memory processing --- will good if someone who known where
it is needful (Tom:-) add it for others contexts;
 A problem in the current source is that we have still some malloc()
allocation that is not needful and this allocation is total invisible for
all context routines. For example Dllist in backend (pretty dirty it is in
catcache where values in Dllist are palloc-ed, but list is malloc-ed).
--- and BTW. this Dllist design stand in the way for query cache :-)

 Tom, if you agree I start replace some mallocs.

 BTW. --- Tom, have you idea for across transaction presistent allocation for
          SQL functions? (like regex - now it is via malloc)


 I almost forget. I add one if() to AllocSetAlloc(), for 'size' that are
greater than ALLOC_BIGCHUNK_LIMIT is not needful check AllocSetFreeIndex(),
because 'fidx' is always 'ALLOCSET_NUM_FREELISTS - 1'. It a little brisk up
allocation for very large chunks. Right?

74618e2b82 Another round of those unportable config/build changes :-/
* Add option to build with OpenSSL out of the box. Fix thusly exposed
  bit rot. Although it compiles now, getting this to do something
  useful is left as an exercise.

* Fix Kerberos options to defer checking for required libraries until
  all the other libraries are checked for.

* Change default odbcinst.ini and krb5.srvtab path to PREFIX/etc.

* Install work around for Autoconf's install-sh relative path anomaly.
  Get rid of old INSTL_*_OPTS variables, now that we don't need them
  anymore.

* Use `gunzip -c' instead of g?zcat. Reportedly broke on AIX.

* Look for only one of readline.h or readline/readline.h, not both.

* Make check for PS_STRINGS cacheable. Don't test for the header files
  separately.

* Disable fcntl(F_SETLK) test on Linux.

* Substitute the standard GCC warnings set into CFLAGS in configure,
  don't add it on in Makefile.global.

* Sweep through contrib tree to teach makefiles standard semantics.

... and in completely unrelated news:

* Make postmaster.opts arbitrary options-aware. I still think we need to
  save the environment as well.

65da0d66b4 Fix misuse of StrNCpy to copy and add null to non-null-terminated data.
Does not work since it fetches one byte beyond the source data, and when
the phase of the moon is wrong, the source data is smack up against the
end of backend memory and you get SIGSEGV.  Don't laugh, this is a fix
for an actual user bug report.

16e948781c |> The Makefile.shlib changes will have to be discussed with other Linux
|> developers so we are sure it will work on all platforms.

The problem with the current settings is that the linker is called
directly.  This is wrong, it should always be called through the
compiler
driver (the only exception is `ld -r').  This will make sure that the
necessary libraries like libgcc are linked in.

But there is still a different problem with the setting of LDFLAGS_ODBC.
The psqlodbc module defines the functions _init and _fini which are
reserved for the shared library initialisation.  These should be changed
to constructor functions.  Then LDFLAGS_ODBC can be changed to be just
`-lm'.  Btw, why does it use -Bsymbolic?
