This doesn't do anything useful just yet, but is intended as supporting
infrastructure for allowing sepgsql to sensibly check DROP permissions.

Add counters for number and size of temporary files used
for spill-to-disk queries for each database to the
pg_stat_database view.

Rip out a regression test that doesn't play well with settings put in
place by the build farm, and rewrite the code in CheckIndexCompatible
in a hopefully more transparent style.
This enables a bunch of features, notably ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK. It also
makes COPY failure (either in the server or psql) as a whole behave more
sanely in psql.
Additionally, having more commands in the same command line as COPY
works better (though since psql splits lines at semicolons, this doesn't
matter much unless you're using -c).
Also tighten a couple of switches on PQresultStatus() to add
PGRES_COPY_BOTH support and stop assuming that unknown statuses received
are errors; have those print diagnostics where warranted.

This gives up the "don't rewrite the index" behavior in a couple of
relatively unimportant cases, such as changing between an array type
and an unconstrained domain over that array type, in return for
making this code more future-proof.

Base backup follows recommended procedure, plus goes to great
lengths to ensure that partial page writes are avoided.

This reports the depth level of triggers currently in execution, or zero
if not called from inside a trigger.
No catversion bump in this patch, but you have to initdb if you want
access to the new function.

have pg_upgrade allocate a maximum fixed size buffer for testing the
library file name, rather than base the allocation on the library name.
Backpatch to 9.1.
Replication occurs only to memory on standby, not to disk,
so provides additional performance if user wishes to
reduce durability level slightly. Adds concept of multiple
independent sync rep queues.

Drop the role we create, so regression tests pass even when run more
than once against the same cluster, a problem noted by Tom Lane and
Jeff Janes. Also, rename the temporary role so that it starts with
"regress_", to make it unlikely that we'll collide with an existing
role name while running "make installcheck", per further gripe from
Tom Lane.
We log AccessExclusiveLocks for replay onto standby nodes,
but because of timing issues on ProcArray it is possible to
log a lock that is still held by a just committed transaction
that is very soon to be removed. To avoid any timing issue we
avoid applying locks made by transactions with InvalidXid.

This separates the state (running/idle/idleintransaction etc) into
it's own field ("state"), and leaves the query field containing just
query text.
The query text will now mean "current query" when a query is running
and "last query" in other states. Accordingly,the field has been
renamed from current_query to query.
Since backwards compatibility was broken anyway to make that, the procpid
field has also been renamed to pid - along with the same field in
pg_stat_replication for consistency.

That avoids errors when the functions are used in queries like "SELECT
pg_relation_size(oid) FROM pg_class", and a table is dropped concurrently.

When the only remaining active transactions are READ ONLY, we do a "partial
cleanup" of committed transactions because certain types of conflicts
aren't possible anymore. For committed r/w transactions, we release the
SIREAD locks but keep the SERIALIZABLEXACT. However, for committed r/o
transactions, we can go further and release the SERIALIZABLEXACT too. The
problem was with the latter case: we were returning the SERIALIZABLEXACT to
the free list without removing it from the finished list.
The only real change in the patch is the SHMQueueDelete line, but I also
reworked some of the surrounding code to make it obvious that r/o and r/w
transactions are handled differently -- the existing code felt a bit too
clever.

This prevents the postmaster from unexpectedly croaking if postgresql.conf
contains something like:
include 'invalid_directory_name'
Noah Misch. Reviewed by Tom Lane and myself.
When creating a child table, or when attaching an existing table as
child of another, we must not allow inheritable constraints to be
merged with non-inheritable ones, because then grandchildren would not
properly get the constraint. This would violate the grandparent's
expectations.
Bugs noted by Robert Haas.
Author: Nikhil Sontakke
In the previous coding, it was possible for a relation to be created
via CREATE TABLE, CREATE VIEW, CREATE SEQUENCE, CREATE FOREIGN TABLE,
etc. in a schema while that schema was meanwhile being concurrently
dropped. This led to a pg_class entry with an invalid relnamespace
value. The same problem could occur if a relation was moved using
ALTER .. SET SCHEMA while the target schema was being concurrently
dropped. This patch prevents both of those scenarios by locking the
schema to which the relation is being added using AccessShareLock,
which conflicts with the AccessExclusiveLock taken by DROP.
As a desirable side effect, this also prevents the use of CREATE OR
REPLACE VIEW to queue for an AccessExclusiveLock on a relation on which
you have no rights: that will now fail immediately with a permissions
error, before trying to obtain a lock.
We need similar protection for all other object types, but as everything
other than relations uses a slightly different set of code paths, I'm
leaving that for a separate commit.
Original complaint (as far as I could find) about CREATE by Nikhil
Sontakke; risk for ALTER .. SET SCHEMA pointed out by Tom Lane;
further details by Dan Farina; patch by me; review by Hitoshi Harada.
When the remote end of the pipe is closed, select() reports the fd as
readable, but poll() has a separate POLLHUP return code for that.
Spotted by Peter Geoghegan.
Allows a user to use pg_cancel_queries() to cancel queries in
other backends if they are running under the same role.
pg_terminate_backend() still requires superuser permissoins.
Short patch, many authors working on the bikeshed: Magnus Hagander,
Josh Kupershmidt, Edward Muller, Greg Smith.
isolationtester is now able to continue running other permutations when
it detects that one of them is invalid, which is useful during initial
development of spec files.
Author: Alexander Shulgin
superuser doesn't have doesn't make much sense, as a superuser can do
whatever he wants through other means, anyway. So instead of granting
replication privilege to superusers in CREATE USER time by default, allow
replication connection from superusers whether or not they have the
replication privilege.
