Remove information about cvsup and documentation that's more about cvs
than our use of cvs.
Backpatch to 8.4 so we get the git information up on the website as
soon as possible.
support any indexable commutative operator, not just equality. Two rows
violate the exclusion constraint if "row1.col OP row2.col" is TRUE for
each of the columns in the constraint.

Instead of expensive cross joins to resolve the ACL, add table-returning
function aclexplode() that expands the ACL into a useful form, and join
against that.
Also, implement the role_*_grants views as a thin layer over the respective
*_privileges views instead of essentially repeating the same code twice.
fixes bug #4596
by Joachim Wieland, with cleanup by me
in a subtransaction stays open even if the subtransaction is aborted, so
any temporary files related to it must stay alive as well. With the patch,
we use ResourceOwners to track open temporary files and don't automatically
close them at subtransaction end (though in the normal case temporary files
are registered with the subtransaction resource owner and will therefore be
closed).
At end of top transaction, we still check that there's no temporary files
marked as close-at-end-of-transaction open, but that's now just a debugging
cross-check as the resource owner cleanup should've closed them already.
to the client by the server. This might seem pretty pointless but apparently
it will help pgbouncer, and perhaps other connection poolers. Anyway it's
practically free to do so for the normal use-case where appname is only set
in the startup packet --- we're just adding a few more bytes to the initial
ParameterStatus response packet. Per comments from Marko Kreen.
is made, include it in the startup-packet options. This makes it work more
like every other libpq connection option, in particular it now has the same
response to RESET ALL as the rest. This also saves one network round trip
for new applications using application_name. The cost is that if the server
is pre-8.5, it'll reject the startup packet altogether, forcing us to retry
the entire connection cycle. But on balance we shouldn't be optimizing that
case in preference to the behavior with a new server, especially when doing
so creates visible behavioral oddities. Per discussion.
locale-dependent character classification properly when the database encoding
is UTF8.
The previous coding worked okay in single-byte encodings, or in any case for
ASCII characters, but failed entirely on multibyte characters. The fix
assumes that the <wctype.h> functions use Unicode code points as the wchar
representation for Unicode, ie, wchar matches pg_wchar.
This is only a partial solution, since we're still stupid about non-ASCII
characters in multibyte encodings other than UTF8. The practical effect
of that is limited, however, since those cases are generally Far Eastern
glyphs for which concepts like case-folding don't apply anyway. Certainly
all or nearly all of the field reports of problems have been about UTF8.
A more general solution would require switching to the platform's wchar
representation for all regex operations; which is possible but would have
substantial disadvantages. Let's try this and see if it's sufficient in
practice.
we have to tell Perl it can release its compiled copy of the function
text. Noted by Alexey Klyukin.
Back-patch to 8.2 --- the problem exists further back, but this patch
won't work without modification, and it's probably not worth the trouble.
by adding a requirement that build_join_rel add new join RelOptInfos to the
appropriate list immediately at creation. Per report from Robert Haas,
the list_concat_unique_ptr() calls that this change eliminates were taking
the lion's share of the runtime in larger join problems. This doesn't do
anything to fix the fundamental combinatorial explosion in large join
problems, but it should push out the threshold of pain a bit further.
Note: because this changes the order in which joinrel lists are built,
it might result in changes in selected plans in cases where different
alternatives have exactly the same costs. There is one example in the
regression tests.
be part of multixacts, so allocate a slot for each prepared transaction in
the "oldest member" array in multixact.c. On PREPARE TRANSACTION, transfer
the oldest member value from the current backends slot to the prepared xact
slot. Also save and recover the value from the 2pc state file.
The symptom of the bug was that after a transaction prepared, a shared lock
still held by the prepared transaction was sometimes ignored by other
transactions.
Fix back to 8.1, where both 2PC and multixact were introduced.
