PostgreSQL Daemon
750a0e676e From the SSL_CTX_new man page:
"SSLv23_method(void), SSLv23_server_method(void), SSLv23_client_method(void)

 A TLS/SSL connection established with these methods will understand the SSLv2,
 SSLv3, and TLSv1 protocol. A client will send out SSLv2 client hello messages
 and will indicate that it also understands SSLv3 and TLSv1. A server will
 understand SSLv2, SSLv3, and TLSv1 client hello messages. This is the best
 choice when compatibility is a concern."

This will maintain backwards compatibility for those us that don't use
TLS connections ...

retrieved.  This cannot happen in ordinary execution, but it can happen
under EvalPlanQual().

e932a724a4 To suppress memory leakage in long-lived Lists, lremove() should pfree
the cons cell it's deleting from the list.  Do this, and fix a few callers
that were bogusly assuming it wouldn't free the cons cell.

9f76d0d926 Fix GEQO to work again in CVS tip, by being more careful about memory
allocation in best_inner_indexscan().  While at it, simplify GEQO's
interface to the main planner --- make_join_rel() offers exactly the
API it really wants, whereas calling make_rels_by_clause_joins() and
make_rels_by_clauseless_joins() required jumping through hoops.
Rewrite gimme_tree for clarity (sometimes iteration is much better than
recursion), and approximately halve GEQO's runtime by recognizing that
tours of the forms (a,b,c,d,...) and (b,a,c,d,...) are equivalent
because of symmetry in make_join_rel().

260faf0b63 Fix ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN to disallow the same column types that are
disallowed by CREATE TABLE (eg, pseudo-types); also disallow these types
from being introduced by the range-function syntax.  While at it, allow
CREATE TABLE to create zero-column tables, per recent pghackers discussion.
I am back-patching this into 7.3 since failure to disallow pseudo-types
is arguably a security hole.

88177f77b1 Code review for palloc0 patch --- avoid dangerous and unnecessary
practice of evaluating MemSet's arguments multiple times, except for
the special case of newNode(), where we can assume the argument is
a constant sizeof() operator.
Also, add GetMemoryChunkContext() to mcxt.c's API, in preparation for
fixing recent GEQO breakage.

e64c7feb2f Tweak default memory context allocation policy so that a context is not
given any malloc block until something is first allocated in it; but
thereafter, MemoryContextReset won't release that first malloc block.
This preserves the quick-reset property of the original policy, without
forcing 8K to be allocated to every context whether any of it is ever
used or not.  Also, remove some more no-longer-needed explicit freeing
during ExecEndPlan.

5bab36e9f6 Revise executor APIs so that all per-query state structure is built in
a per-query memory context created by CreateExecutorState --- and destroyed
by FreeExecutorState.  This provides a final solution to the longstanding
problem of memory leaked by various ExecEndNode calls.

c78701697c The actual segfault was caused by a double pfree(), but ISTM that
failing to find pg_hba.conf should be a fatal error anyway, so I
increased the priority of the elog() from LOG to FATAL and refactored
the code a little bit.

fb2d7a24f9 Ok, I think I've gotten this figured out now. I saw this comment in
pqcomm.c, switched the ERROR logs to COMMERROR logs and it all works.
I've attached a patch to be-secure.c that fixes all my problems.

2d8d66628a Clean up plantree representation of SubPlan-s --- SubLink does not appear
in the planned representation of a subplan at all any more, only SubPlan.
This means subselect.c doesn't scribble on its input anymore, which seems
like a good thing; and there are no longer three different possible
interpretations of a SubLink.  Simplify node naming and improve comments
in primnodes.h.  No change to stored rules, though.

3145cbc14f Admit defeat on the prospect of keeping straight exactly which platforms
produce which output in the geometry test, even with the problem narrowed
down to only whether they print minus zero or not.  Instead, use
pg_regress' locale-variant mechanism to automatically consider the test
to pass if it matches either supplied comparison file.  geometry_1.out
replaces the former geometry-positive-zeros.out.

3a4f7dde16 Phase 3 of read-only-plans project: ExecInitExpr now builds expression
execution state trees, and ExecEvalExpr takes an expression state tree
not an expression plan tree.  The plan tree is now read-only as far as
the executor is concerned.  Next step is to begin actually exploiting
this property.

1b706651b6 Here's the patch I mentioned on HACKERS to fix up ALTER command tab
completion. Note that it's based on 7.3 tarball, not CVS HEAD, or 7.3rel
branch. Damn, looking at CVS, this will patch into 7.3rel (just tested,
it does) probably collide with Rod Taylor's patch adding ALTER TRIGGER
stuff. O.K, second patch attached against HEAD - not tested, hand
merged.

40c4472e22 TODO marked as done:
* Add schema, cast, and conversion backslash commands to psql

I had to create a new publically available function,
pg_conversion_is_visible, as it seemed to be missing from the catalogs.
This required me to do no small amount of hacking around in namespace.c

I have updated the \? help and sgml docs.

\dc - list conversions [PATTERN]
\dC - list casts
\dn list schemas

I didn't support patterns with casts as there's nothing obvious to match
against.

Catalog version incremented --- initdb required.

b0422b215c Preliminary code review for domain CHECK constraints patch: add documentation,
make VALUE a non-reserved word again, use less invasive method of passing
ConstraintTestValue into transformExpr, fix problems with nested constraint
testing, do correct thing with NULL result from a constraint expression,
remove memory leak.  Domain checks still need much more work if we are going
to allow ALTER DOMAIN, however.

a0bf885f9e Phase 2 of read-only-plans project: restructure expression-tree nodes
so that all executable expression nodes inherit from a common supertype
Expr.  This is somewhat of an exercise in code purity rather than any
real functional advance, but getting rid of the extra Oper or Func node
formerly used in each operator or function call should provide at least
a little space and speed improvement.
initdb forced by changes in stored-rules representation.
