upper-level insertion completes a previously-seen split, we cannot simply grab the downlink block number out of the buffer, because the buffer could contain a later state of the page --- or perhaps the page doesn't even exist at all any more, due to relation truncation. These possibilities have been masked up to now because the use of full_page_writes effectively ensured that no xlog replay routine ever actually saw a page state newer than its own change. Since we're deprecating full_page_writes in 8.1.*, there's no need to fix this in existing release branches, but we need a fix in HEAD if we want to have any hope of re-allowing full_page_writes. Accordingly, adjust the contents of btree WAL records so that we can always get the downlink block number from the WAL record rather than having to depend on buffer contents. Per report from Kevin Grittner and Peter Brant. Improve a few comments in related code while at it. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces including some of the more common listed below: C++ - http://thaiopensource.org/development/libpqxx/ JDBC - http://jdbc.postgresql.org ODBC - http://odbc.postgresql.org Perl - http://search.cpan.org/~dbdpg/ PHP - http://www.php.net Python - http://www.initd.org/ Ruby - http://ruby.scripting.ca/postgres/ Other language binding are available from a variety of contributing parties. PostgreSQL also has a great number of procedural languages available, a short but not complete list is below: pl/c - Included in PostgreSQL core plPgsql - Included in PostgreSQL core - Similar to Oracle PL/sql plPerl - Included in PostgreSQL core plPHP - http://projects.commandprompt.com/projects/public/plphp plPython - Included in PostgreSQL core plJava - http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pljava/projdisplay.php plTcl - Included in PostgreSQL core See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
