an error as we used to. In an OUTER JOIN scenario, retrieving a null
CTID from one of the input relations is entirely expected. We still
want to lock the input rows from the other relations, so just ignore
the null and keep going.
I believe this should fix the issue that Philip Warner
noticed about the check for unique constraints meeting the
referenced keys of a foreign key constraint allowing the
specification of a subset of a foreign key instead of
rejecting it. I also added tests for a base case of
this to the foreign key and alter table tests and patches
for expected output.
report from Joel Burton. Turns out that my simple idea of turning the
SELECT into a subquery does not interact well *at all* with the way the
rule rewriter works. Really what we need to make INSERT ... SELECT work
cleanly is to decouple targetlists from rangetables: an INSERT ... SELECT
wants to have two levels of targetlist but only one rangetable. No time
for that for 7.1, however, so I've inserted some ugly hacks to make the
rewriter know explicitly about the structure of INSERT ... SELECT queries.
Ugh :-(
Allow some operator-like tokens to be used as function names.
Flesh out support for time, timetz, and interval operators
and interactions.
Regression tests pass, but non-reference-platform horology test results
will need to be updated.
anymore. That won't teach us anything new for the rest of this release
cycle, so it seems better to keep the --assert environment more like the
non-assert environment for beta.
I'm going to leave CLOBBER_FREED_MEMORY and MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING
turned on by --enable-cassert for now, however.
since those routines may do palloc's. We want to be fairly sure we can
send the error message to the client even under low-memory conditions.
That's what we stashed away 8K in ErrorContext for, after all ...
not-very-good handling of mid-size allocation requests. Do everything via
either the "small" case (chunk size rounded up to power of 2) or the "large"
case (pass it straight off to malloc()). Increase the number of freelists
a little to set the breakpoint between these behaviors at 8K.

Don't check for preprocessor symbols from system header files in port
include files, since those header files aren't included at this point.
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) <object files> <extra-libraries> $(LIBS) -o $@
This form seemed to be the most portable, readable, and logical, but in any
case it's better than having a dozen different ones in the tree.
both MULTIBYTE and TOAST prevent char(n) from being truly fixed-size.
Simplify and speed up fastgetattr() and index_getattr() macros by
eliminating special cases for attnum=1. It's just as fast to handle
the first attribute by presetting its attcacheoff to zero; so do that
instead when loading the tupledesc in relcache.c.
included by everything that includes bufmgr.h --- it's supposed to be
internals, after all, not part of the API! This fixes the conflict
against FreeBSD headers reported by Rosenman, by making it unnecessary
for s_lock.h to be included by plperl.c.

Apparently it's not used anyplace in the postmaster ... but seems best
to make it show the correct PID ...
socket file, in favor of having an ordinary lockfile beside the socket file.
Clean up a few robustness problems in the lockfile code. If postmaster is
going to reject a connection request based on database state, it will now
tell you so before authentication exchange not after. (Of course, a failure
after is still possible if conditions change meanwhile, but this makes life
easier for a yet-to-be-written pg_ping utility.)
