user is now defined in terms of the user id, the user name is only computed
upon request (for display purposes). This is kind of the opposite of the
previous state, which would maintain the user name and compute the user id
for permission checks.
Besides perhaps saving a few cycles (integer vs string), this now creates a
single point of attack for changing the user id during a connection, for
purposes of "setuid" functions, etc.

for example, an SQL function can be used in a functional index. (I make
no promises about speed, but it'll work ;-).) Clean up and simplify
handling of functions returning sets.

pass-by-ref data types --- eg, an index on lower(textfield) --- no longer
leak memory during index creation or update. Clean up a lot of redundant
code ... did you know that copy, vacuum, truncate, reindex, extend index,
and bootstrap each basically duplicated the main executor's logic for
extracting information about an index and preparing index entries?
Functional indexes should be a little faster now too, due to removal
of repeated function lookups.
CREATE INDEX 'opt_type' clause is deimplemented by these changes,
but I haven't removed it from the parser yet (need to merge with
Thomas' latest change set first).

for details). It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no
short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is
in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably. A few long-
standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single
query string crashing. Also, out-of-memory is now considered a
recoverable ERROR, not FATAL.
Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around
memory management.
Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and
backend startup.

option settings. Sort out SIGHUP vs BACKEND -- there is no total ordering
here, so make explicit checks. Add comments explaining all of this.
Removed permissions check on SHOW command.
Add examine_subclass to the game, rename to SQL_inheritance to fit the
official data model better. Adjust documentation.
Standalone backend needs to reset all options before it starts. To
facilitate that, have IsUnderPostmaster be set by the postmaster itself,
don't wait for the magic -p switch.
Also make sure that all environment variables and argv's survive
init_ps_display(). Use strdup where necessary.
Have initdb make configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf) mode
0600 -- having configuration files is no fun if you can't edit them.

quote-stripping, and acl-checking tasks for these functions from the
parser, and do them at function execution time instead. This fixes
the failure of pg_dump to produce correct output for nextval(Foo)
used in a rule, and also eliminates the restriction that the argument
of these functions must be a parse-time constant.

That means you can now set your options in either or all of $PGDATA/configuration,
some postmaster option (--enable-fsync=off), or set a SET command. The list of
options is in backend/utils/misc/guc.c, documentation will be written post haste.
pg_options is gone, so is that pq_geqo config file. Also removed were backend -K,
-Q, and -T options (no longer applicable, although -d0 does the same as -Q).
Added to configure an --enable-syslog option.

variable, instead calling same code in variable.c that is used to parse
SET DATESTYLE. Fix bug: although backend's startup datestyle had been
changed to ISO, 'RESET DATESTYLE' and 'SET DATESTYLE TO DEFAULT' didn't
know about it. For consistency I have made the latter two reset to the
PGDATESTYLE-defined initial value, which may not be the same as the
compiled-in default of ISO.

this is an old patch which I have already submitted and never seen
in the sources. It corrects the datatype oids used in some iterator
functions. This bug has been reported to me by many other people.
contrib-datetime.patch
some code contributed by Reiner Dassing <dassing@wettzell.ifag.de>
contrib-makefiles.patch
fixes all my contrib makefiles which don't work with some compilers,
as reported to me by another user.
contrib-miscutil.patch
an old patch for one of my old contribs.
contrib-string.patch
a small change to the c-like text output functions. Now the '{'
is escaped only at the beginning of the string to distinguish it
from arrays, and the '}' is no more escaped.
elog-lineno.patch
adds the current lineno of CopyFrom to elog messages. This is very
useful when you load a 1 million tuples table from an external file
and there is a bad value somehere. Currently you get an error message
but you can't know where is the bad data. The patch uses a variable
which was declared static in copy.c. The variable is now exported
and initialized to 0. It is always cleared at the end of the copy
or at the first elog message or when the copy is canceled.
I know this is very ugly but I can't find any better way of knowing
where the copy fails and I have this problem quite often.
plperl-makefile.patch
fixes a typo in a makefile, but the error must be elsewhere because
it is a file generated automatically. Please have a look.
tprintf-timestamp.patch
restores the original 2-digit year format, assuming that the two
century digits don't carry much information and that '000202' is
easier to read than 20000202. Being only a log file it shouldn't
break anything.
Please apply the patches before the next scheduled code freeze.
I also noticed that some of the contribs don't compile correcly. Should we
ask people to fix their code or rename their makefiles so that they are
ignored by the top makefile?

syscache and relcache flushes). Relcache entry rebuild now preserves
original tupledesc, rewrite rules, and triggers if possible, so that pointers
to these things remain valid --- if these things change while relcache entry
has positive refcount, we elog(ERROR) to avoid later crash. Arrange for
xact-local rels to be rebuilt when an SI inval message is seen for them,
so that they are updated by CommandCounterIncrement the same as regular rels.
(This is useful because of Hiroshi's recent changes to process our own SI
messages at CommandCounterIncrement time.) This allows simplification of
some routines that previously hacked around the lack of an automatic update.
catcache now keeps its own copy of tupledesc for its relation, rather than
depending on the relcache's copy; this avoids needing to reinitialize catcache
during a cache flush, which saves some cycles and eliminates nasty circularity
problems that occur if a cache flush happens while trying to initialize a
catcache.
Eliminate a number of permanent memory leaks that used to happen during
catcache or relcache flush; not least of which was that catcache never
freed any cached tuples! (Rule parsetree storage is still leaked, however;
will fix that separately.)
Nothing done yet about code that uses tuples retrieved by SearchSysCache
for longer than is safe.

to the typelem or typmod parameters to these functions. In particular,
incorrect code in pg_aggregate.c explains the platform-specific failures

* Let unprivileged users change their own passwords.
* The password is now an Sconst in the parser, which better reflects its text datatype and also
forces users to quote them.
* If your password is NULL you won't be written to the password file, meaning you can't connect
until you have a password set up (if you use password authentication).
* When you drop a user that owns a database you get an error. The database is not gone.

didn't have time for documentation yet, but I'll write some. There are
still some things to work out what happens when you alter or drop users,
but the group stuff in and by itself is done.

anywhere from zero to two TODO items.
* Allow flag to control COPY input/output of NULLs
I got this:
COPY table .... [ WITH NULL AS 'string' ]
which does what you'd expect. The default is \N, otherwise you can use
empty strings, etc. On Copy In this acts like a filter: every data item
that looks like 'string' becomes a NULL. Pretty straightforward.
This also seems to be related to
* Make postgres user have a password by default
If I recall this discussion correctly, the problem was actually that the
default password for the postgres (or any) user is in fact "\N", because
of the way copy is used. With this change, the file pg_pwd is copied out
with nulls as empty strings, so if someone doesn't have a password, the
password is just '', which one would expect from a new account. I don't
think anyone really wants a hard-coded default password.

(whoever thought world-writable files were a good default????). Modify
the pg_pwd code so that pg_pwd is created with 600 permissions. Modify
initdb so that permissions on a pre-existing PGDATA directory are not
blindly accepted: if the dir is already there, it does chmod go-rwx
to be sure that the permissions are OK and the dir actually is owned
by postgres.

The following patch extends the COMMENT ON functionality to the
rest of the database objects beyond just tables, columns, and views. The
grammer of the COMMENT ON statement now looks like:
COMMENT ON [
[ DATABASE | INDEX | RULE | SEQUENCE | TABLE | TYPE | VIEW ] <objname>
|
COLUMN <relation>.<attribute> |
AGGREGATE <aggname> <aggtype> |
FUNCTION <funcname> (arg1, arg2, ...) |
OPERATOR <op> (leftoperand_typ rightoperand_typ) |
TRIGGER <triggername> ON relname>

>From the ORACLE 7 SQL Language Reference Manual:
-----------------------------------------------------
COMMENT
Purpose:
To add a comment about a table, view, snapshot, or
column into the data dictionary.
Prerequisites:
The table, view, or snapshot must be in your own
schema
or you must have COMMENT ANY TABLE system privilege.
Syntax:
COMMENT ON [ TABLE table ] |
[ COLUMN table.column] IS 'text'
You can effectively drop a comment from the database
by setting it to the empty string ''.
-----------------------------------------------------
Example:
COMMENT ON TABLE workorders IS
'Maintains base records for workorder information';
COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS
'Number of hours the engineer worked on the task';
to drop a comment:
COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS '';
The current patch will simply perform the insert into
pg_description, as per the TODO. And, of course, when
the table is dropped, any comments relating to it
or any of its attributes are also dropped. I haven't
looked at the ODBC source yet, but I do know from
an ODBC client standpoint that the standard does
support the notion of table and column comments.
Hopefully the ODBC driver is already fetching these
values from pg_description, but if not, it should be
trivial.
Hope this makes the grade,

neqsel now behave as per my suggestions in pghackers a few days ago.
selectivity for < > <= >= should work OK for integral types as well, but
still need work for nonintegral types. Since these routines have never
actually executed before :-(, this may result in some significant changes
in the optimizer's choices of execution plans. Let me know if you see
any serious misbehavior.
CAUTION: THESE CHANGES REQUIRE INITDB. pg_statistic table has changed.
