Tom Lane e006a24ad1 Implement SEMI and ANTI joins in the planner and executor. (Semijoins replace
the old JOIN_IN code, but antijoins are new functionality.)  Teach the planner
to convert appropriate EXISTS and NOT EXISTS subqueries into semi and anti
joins respectively.  Also, LEFT JOINs with suitable upper-level IS NULL
filters are recognized as being anti joins.  Unify the InClauseInfo and
OuterJoinInfo infrastructure into "SpecialJoinInfo".  With that change,
it becomes possible to associate a SpecialJoinInfo with every join attempt,
which permits some cleanup of join selectivity estimation.  That needs to be
taken much further than this patch does, but the next step is to change the
API for oprjoin selectivity functions, which seems like material for a
separate patch.  So for the moment the output size estimates for semi and
especially anti joins are quite bogus.

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, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

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/.
