Toast tables have identical pg_class.oid and pg_class.relfilenode, but
for clarity it is good to preserve the pg_class.oid.
Update comments regarding what is preserved, and do some
variable/function renaming for clarity.
Foreign tables are a core component of SQL/MED. This commit does
not provide a working SQL/MED infrastructure, because foreign tables
cannot yet be queried. Support for foreign table scans will need to
be added in a future patch. However, this patch creates the necessary
system catalog structure, syntax support, and support for ancillary
operations such as COMMENT and SECURITY LABEL.

The contents of an unlogged table are WAL-logged; thus, they are not
available on standby servers and are truncated whenever the database
system enters recovery. Indexes on unlogged tables are also unlogged.
Unlogged GiST indexes are not currently supported.
This privilege is required to do Streaming Replication, instead of
superuser, making it possible to set up a SR slave that doesn't
have write permissions on the master.
Superuser privileges do NOT override this check, so in order to
use the default superuser account for replication it must be
explicitly granted the REPLICATION permissions. This is backwards
incompatible change, in the interest of higher default security.
Allow INSERT INTO, UPDATE, and DELETE FROM to be completed with
either the name of a table (as before) or the name of a view with
an appropriate INSTEAD OF rule.
Along the way, allow CREATE TRIGGER to be completed with INSTEAD OF,
as well as BEFORE and AFTER.

mkdir_p and check_data_dir will be useful in CREATE TABLESPACE, since we
have agreed that that command should handle subdirectory creation just like
initdb creates the PGDATA directory. Push them into src/port/ so that they
are available to both initdb and the backend. Rename to pg_mkdir_p and
pg_check_dir, just to be on the safe side. Add FreeBSD's copyright notice
to pgmkdirp.c, since that's where the code came from originally (this
really should have been in initdb.c). Very marginal code/comment cleanup.
Purely cosmetic patch to make our coding standards more consistent ---
we were doing symbolic some places and octal other places. This patch
fixes all C-coded uses of mkdir, chmod, and umask. There might be some
other calls I missed. Inconsistency noted while researching tablespace
directory permissions issue.
With hundreds of thousands of TOC entries, the repeated searches in
reduce_dependencies() become the dominant cost. Get rid of that searching
by constructing reverse-dependency lists, which we can do in O(N) time
during the fix_dependencies() preprocessing. I chose to store the reverse
dependencies as DumpId arrays for consistency with the forward-dependency
representation, and keep the previously-transient tocsByDumpId[] array
around to locate actual TOC entry structs quickly from dump IDs.
While this fixes the slow case reported by Vlad Arkhipov, there is still
a potential for O(N^2) behavior with sufficiently many tables:
fix_dependencies itself, as well as mark_create_done and
inhibit_data_for_failed_table, are doing repeated searches to deal with
table-to-table-data dependencies. Possibly this work could be extended
to deal with that, although the latter two functions are also used in
non-parallel restore where we currently don't run fix_dependencies.
Another TODO is that we fail to parallelize restore of multiple blobs
at all. This appears to require changes in the archive format to fix.
Back-patch to 9.0 where the problem was reported. 8.4 has potential issues
as well; but since it doesn't create a separate TOC entry for each blob,
it's at much less risk of having enough TOC entries to cause real problems.
to make it easier to reuse that code. There is no user-visible changes.
This is in preparation for the patch to add a new archive format, a directory,
to perform a custom-like dump but with each table being dumped to a separate
file (that in turn is a prerequisite for parallel pg_dump). This also makes it
easier to add new compression methods in the future, and makes the
pg_backup_custom.c code easier to read, when the compression-related code is
factored out.
Joachim Wieland, with heavy editorialization by me.
Basically, we want to distinguish all cases where the connection was
not made from those where it was. A convenient proxy for this is to
see if we got a message with a SQLSTATE code back from the postmaster.
This presumes that the postmaster will always send us a SQLSTATE in
a failure message, which is true for 7.4 and later postmasters in
every case except fork failure. (We could possibly complicate the
postmaster code to do something about that, but it seems not worth
the trouble, especially since pg_ctl's response for that case should
be to keep waiting anyway.)
If we did get a SQLSTATE from the postmaster, there are basically only
two cases, as per last week's discussion: ERRCODE_CANNOT_CONNECT_NOW
and everything else. Any other error code implies that the postmaster
is in principle willing to accept connections, it just didn't like or
couldn't handle this particular request. We want to make a special
case for ERRCODE_CANNOT_CONNECT_NOW so that "pg_ctl start -w" knows
it should keep waiting.
In passing, pick names for the enum constants that are a tad less
likely to present collision hazards in future.
This adds support for changing the schema of a conversion, operator,
operator class, operator family, text search configuration, text search
dictionary, text search parser, or text search template.

status, including a status where the server is running but refuses a
postgres connection.
Have pg_ctl use this new function. This fixes the case where pg_ctl
reports that the server is not running (cannot connect) but in fact it
is running.
This commit adds columns amoppurpose and amopsortfamily to pg_amop, and
column amcanorderbyop to pg_am. For the moment all the entries in
amcanorderbyop are "false", since the underlying support isn't there yet.
Also, extend the CREATE OPERATOR CLASS/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands with
[ FOR SEARCH | FOR ORDER BY sort_operator_family ] clauses to allow the new
columns of pg_amop to be populated, and create pg_dump support for dumping
that information.
I also added some documentation, although it's perhaps a bit premature
given that the feature doesn't do anything useful yet.

Replace for loops in makefiles with proper dependencies. Parallel
make can now span across directories. Also, make -k and make -q work
properly.
GNU make 3.80 or newer is now required.
\dn without "S" now hides all pg_XXX schemas as well as information_schema.
Thus, in a bare database you'll only see "public". ("public" is considered
a user schema, not a system schema, mainly because it's droppable.)
Per discussion back in late September.
Per C standard, these are semantically the same thing; but saying NULL
when you mean NULL is good for readability.

The previous wording might have suggested that \du only showed login roles

Original patch failed to include new exclusive states in a switch that
needed to include them; and also was guilty of very fuzzy thinking
about how to handle error cases. Per bug #5729 from Alan Choi.
- Avoid closing stdin, since we didn't open it. Previously multiple
inclusions of stdin would be terminated with a single quit, now a separate
quit is needed for each invocation. Previous behavior also accessed stdin
after it was fclose()d, which is undefined behavior per ANSI C.
- Properly restore pset.inputfile, since the caller expects to be able
to free that memory.

After much expenditure of effort, we've got this to the point where the
performance penalty is pretty minimal in typical cases.

Completion is supported in the context of \set and when interpolating
a variable value using :foo etc.
In passing, fix some places in tab-complete.c that weren't following

This patch adds the SQL-standard concept of an INSTEAD OF trigger, which
is fired instead of performing a physical insert/update/delete. The
trigger function is passed the entire old and/or new rows of the view,
and must figure out what to do to the underlying tables to implement
the update. So this feature can be used to implement updatable views
using trigger programming style rather than rule hacking.
In passing, this patch corrects the names of some columns in the
information_schema.triggers view. It seems the SQL committee renamed
them somewhere between SQL:99 and SQL:2003.
Dean Rasheed, reviewed by Bernd Helmle; some additional hacking by me.
This is intended as infrastructure to support integration with label-based
mandatory access control systems such as SE-Linux. Further changes (mostly
hooks) will be needed, but this is a big chunk of it.

servers. AFAICT it's harmless at the moment because nothing can depend on
either, but as soon as we introduce an object type with such dependencies,
tableoid needs to be set or pg_dump will fail to interpret the dependencies
correctly. In theory, I guess the uninitialized garbage in tableoid could
cause the object to be mistaken for some other object with same OID as well.
an online backup instead of performing one. pg_ctl can detect that by
checking if recovery.conf exists.
Backup label file is renamed away early in recovery, so the window where
backup label exists during recovery is normally very small, but you can run
into it e.g if restore_command is set incorrectly and the startup process
never finds even the first WAL segment containing the checkpoint record to
start recovery from.
