are all in new-in-8.2 logic associated with indexability of ScalarArrayOpExpr
(IN-clauses) or amortization of indexscan costs across repeated indexscans
on the inside of a nestloop. In particular:
Fix some logic errors in the estimation for multiple scans induced by a
ScalarArrayOpExpr indexqual.
Include a small cost component in bitmap index scans to reflect the costs of
manipulating the bitmap itself; this is mainly to prevent a bitmap scan from
appearing to have the same cost as a plain indexscan for fetching a single
tuple.
Also add a per-index-scan-startup CPU cost component; while prior releases
were clearly too pessimistic about the cost of repeated indexscans, the
original 8.2 coding allowed the cost of an indexscan to effectively go to zero
if repeated often enough, which is overly optimistic.
Pay some attention to index correlation when estimating costs for a nestloop
inner indexscan: this is significant when the plan fetches multiple heap
tuples per iteration, since high correlation means those tuples are probably
on the same or adjacent heap pages.
properly.
Remove SGML docs about openjade performance patch, and instead add
comment in style sheet where indenting code is commented out.
Backpatch to 8.2.X.
joinclause doesn't use any outer-side vars) requires a "bushy" plan to be
created. The normal heuristic to avoid joins with no joinclause has to be
overridden in that case. Problem is new in 8.2; before that we forced the
outer join order anyway. Per example from Teodor.
release it in a subtransaction abort, but this neglects possibility that
someone outside SPI already did. Fix is for spi.c to forget about a tuptable
as soon as it's handed it back to the caller.
Per bug #2817 from Michael Andreen.
rearrangeable outer joins and the WHERE clause is non-strict and mentions
only nullable-side relations. New bug in 8.2, caused by new logic to allow
rearranging outer joins. Per bug #2807 from Ross Cohen; thanks to Jeff
Davis for producing a usable test case.
a sublink's test expression have the correct vartypmod, rather than defaulting
to -1. There's at least one place where this is important because we're
expecting these Vars to be exactly equal() to those appearing in the subplan
itself. This is a pretty klugy solution --- it would likely be cleaner to
change Param nodes to include a typmod field --- but we can't do that in the
already-released 8.2 branch.
Per bug report from Hubert Fongarnand.
FormatMessage() (This should have been in 8.2.0, patched to 8.2.X and
HEAD):
I think this problem to be complex....
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-11/msg00042.php
FormatMessage of windows cannot consider the encoding of the database.
However, I should try the solution now. It is necessary to clear the
problem.
Multi character-code exists together in message and log. It doesn't
consider
the data base encoding that the user intended....
The user in multi-byte country can try this.

Previous versions aren't affected.
Fix synonym dictionary init: string should be malloc'ed, not palloc'ed. Bug
introduced recently while fixing lowerstr().
by the change to make limit values int8 instead of int4. (Specifically, you
can do DatumGetInt32 safely on a null value, but not DatumGetInt64.) Per
bug #2803 from Greg Johnson.
locks that logically should not be released, because when a subtransaction
overwrites XMAX all knowledge of the previous lock state is lost. It seems
unlikely that we will be able to fix this before 8.3...
should allow delete-pending files to actually go away, and thereby work
around the various complaints we've seen about 'permission denied'
errors in such cases. Should be reasonably harmless in any case...
subtransaction are released if the subtransaction aborts --- in user-level
terminology, this means either rolling back to a savepoint or escaping from
a plpgsql exception block. Per recent suggestion from Simon.
StartupXLOG and ShutdownXLOG no longer need to be critical sections, because
in all contexts where they are invoked, elog(ERROR) would be translated to
elog(FATAL) anyway. (One change in bgwriter.c is needed to make this true:
set ExitOnAnyError before trying to exit. This is a good fix anyway since
the existing code would have gone into an infinite loop on elog(ERROR) during
shutdown.) That avoids a misleading report of PANIC during semi-orderly
failures. Modify the postmaster to include the startup process in the set of
processes that get SIGTERM when a fast shutdown is requested, and also fix it
to not try to restart the bgwriter if the bgwriter fails while trying to write
the shutdown checkpoint. Net result is that "pg_ctl stop -m fast" does
something reasonable for a system in warm standby mode, and so should Unix
system shutdown (ie, universal SIGTERM). Per gripe from Stephen Harris and
some corner-case testing of my own.
remove page on next level linked from next inner page, ginScanToDelete()
wrongly sets parent page. Bug reveals when many item pointers from index
was deleted ( several hundred thousands).
