1037ab75b2 More release notes wording cleanups. 2007-11-20 01:13:00 +00:00
Bruce Momjian
5276950874 Update COMMENT item:
< 	o Prevent COMMENT ON dbname from issuing a warning when loading
< 	  into a database with a different name, perhaps using COMMENT ON
< 	  CURRENT DATABASE
> 	o Change pg_dump so that a comment on the dumped database is
> 	  applied to the loaded database, even if the database has a
> 	  different name.  This will require new backend syntax, perhaps
> 	  COMMENT ON CURRENT DATABASE.

A bunch of other desultory copy-editing, too.

6f4cfe48ac Improve GIN index build's tracking of memory usage by using
GetMemoryChunkSpace, not just the palloc request size.  This brings the
allocatedMemory counter close enough to reality (as measured by
MemoryContextStats printouts) that I think we can get rid of the arbitrary
factor-of-2 adjustment that was put into the code initially.  Given the
sensitivity of GIN build to work memory size, not using as much of work
memory as we're allowed to seems a pretty bad idea.

16dcd5e5ce GIN index build's allocatedMemory counter needs to be long, not uint32.
Else, in a 64-bit machine with maintenance_work_mem set to above 4Gb,
the counter overflows and we never recognize having reached the
maintenance_work_mem limit.  I believe this explains out-of-memory
failure recently reported by Sean Davis.

This is a bug, so backpatch to 8.2.

93190c3098 Repair still another bug in the btree page split WAL reduction patch:
it failed for splits of non-leaf pages because in such pages the first
data key on a page is suppressed, and so we can't just copy the first
key from the right page to reconstitute the left page's high key.
Problem found by Koichi Suzuki, patch by Heikki.

way).

224f91f66d Modify LOOPBYTE/LOOPBIT macros to be more logical; rather than have the
for() body passed as a parameter, make the macros act as simple headers
to code blocks.

This allows pgindent to be run on these files.

6cc4451b5c Prevent re-use of a deleted relation's relfilenode until after the next
checkpoint.  This guards against an unlikely data-loss scenario in which
we re-use the relfilenode, then crash, then replay the deletion and
recreation of the file.  Even then we'd be OK if all insertions into the
new relation had been WAL-logged ... but that's not guaranteed given all
the no-WAL-logging optimizations that have recently been added.

Patch by Heikki Linnakangas, per a discussion last month.
