Unlike the relistemp field which it replaced, relpersistence must be
set correctly quite early during the table creation process, as we
rely on it quite early on for a number of purposes, including security
checks. Normally, this is set based on whether the user enters CREATE
TABLE, CREATE UNLOGGED TABLE, or CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE, but a
relation may also be made implicitly temporary by creating it in
pg_temp. This patch fixes the handling of that case, and also
disables creation of unlogged tables in temporary tablespace (such
table indeed skip WAL-logging, but we reject an explicit
specification) and creation of relations in the temporary schemas of
other sessions (which is not very sensible, and didn't work right
anyway).

This means that they can initially be added to a large existing table
without checking its initial contents, but new tuples must comply to
them; a separate pass invoked by ALTER TABLE / VALIDATE can verify
existing data and ensure it complies with the constraint, at which point
it is marked validated and becomes a normal part of the table ecosystem.
An non-validated CHECK constraint is ignored in the planner for
constraint_exclusion purposes; when validated, cached plans are
recomputed so that partitioning starts working right away.
This patch also enables domains to have unvalidated CHECK constraints
attached to them as well by way of ALTER DOMAIN / ADD CONSTRAINT / NOT
VALID, which can later be validated with ALTER DOMAIN / VALIDATE
CONSTRAINT.

Such a condition is unsatisfiable in combination with any other type of
btree-indexable condition (since we assume btree operators are always
strict). 8.3 and 8.4 had an explicit test for this, which I removed in
commit 29c4ad9829, mistakenly thinking that
the case would be subsumed by the more general handling of IS (NOT) NULL
added in that patch. Put it back, and improve the comments about it, and
add a regression test case.
Per bug #6079 from Renat Nasyrov, and analysis by Dean Rasheed.
already been marked as PREPARED cannot be killed. Kill the current
transaction instead.
One of the prepared_xacts regression tests actually hits this bug. I
removed the anomaly from the duplicate-gids test so that it fails in the
intended way, and added a new test to check serialization failures with
a prepared transaction.

When recursing after an optimization in pull_up_sublinks_qual_recurse, the
available_rels value passed down must include only the relations that are
in the righthand side of the new SEMI or ANTI join; it's incorrect to pull
up a sub-select that refers to other relations, as seen in the added test
case. Per report from BangarRaju Vadapalli.
While at it, rethink the idea of recursing below a NOT EXISTS. That is
essentially the same situation as pulling up ANY/EXISTS sub-selects that
are in the ON clause of an outer join, and it has the same disadvantage:
we'd force the two joins to be evaluated according to the syntactic nesting
order, because the lower join will most likely not be able to commute with
the ANTI join. That could result in having to form a rather large join
product, whereas the handling of a correlated subselect is not quite that
dumb. So until we can handle those cases better, #ifdef NOT_USED that
case. (I think it's okay to pull up in the EXISTS/ANY cases, because SEMI
joins aren't so inflexible about ordering.)
Back-patch to 8.4, same as for previous patch in this area. Fortunately
that patch hadn't made it into any shipped releases yet.
Per recommendation from Peter. Neither choice is bulletproof, but this
is the existing style and it does help prevent unexpected environment
variable substitution.
Apparently there is no buildfarm critter exercising this case after all,
because it fails in several places. With this patch, build, install,
check-world, and installcheck-world pass for me on OS X.
This use-case was broken in commit 529cb267a6
of 2010-10-21, in which I commented "For the moment, we just forbid such
matching. We might later wish to insert an automatic downcast to the
underlying array type, but such a change should also change matching of
domains to ANYELEMENT for consistency". We still lack consensus about what
to do with ANYELEMENT; but not matching ANYARRAY is a clear loss of
functionality compared to prior releases, so let's go ahead and make that
happen. Per complaint from Regina Obe and extensive subsequent discussion.
Since the original implementation of CTEs only allowed them in SELECT
queries, the rule rewriter did not expect to find any CTEs in statements
being rewritten by ON INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE rules. We had dealt with this
to some extent but the code was still several bricks shy of a load, as
illustrated in bug #6051 from Jehan-Guillaume de Rorthais.
In particular, we have to be able to copy CTEs from the original query's
cteList into that of a rule action, in case the rule action references the
CTE (which it pretty much always will). This also implies we were doing
things in the wrong order in RewriteQuery: we have to recursively rewrite
the CTE queries before expanding the main query, so that we have the
rewritten queries available to copy.
There are unpleasant limitations yet to resolve here, but at least we now
throw understandable FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED errors for them instead of just
failing with bizarre implementation-dependent errors. In particular, we
can't handle propagating the same CTE into multiple post-rewrite queries
(because then the CTE would be evaluated multiple times), and we can't cope
with conflicts between CTE names in the original query and in the rule
actions.
This avoids an Assert failure when we try to use ordinary index fetches
while checking for exclusion conflicts. Per report from Noah Misch.
No need for back-patch because the Assert wasn't there before 9.1.
The existence of a btree opclass accepting composite types caused us to
assume that every composite type is sortable. This isn't true of course;
we need to check if the column types are all sortable. There was logic
for this for the case of array comparison (ie, check that the element
type is sortable), but we missed the point for rowtypes. Per Teodor's
report of an ANALYZE failure for an unsortable composite type.
Rather than just add some more ad-hoc logic for this, I moved knowledge of
the issue into typcache.c. The typcache will now only report out array_eq,
record_cmp, and friends as usable operators if the array or composite type
will work with those functions.
Unfortunately we don't have enough info to do this for anonymous RECORD
types; in that case, just assume it will work, and take the runtime failure
as before if it doesn't.
This patch might be a candidate for back-patching at some point, but
given the lack of complaints from the field, I'd rather just test it in
HEAD for now.
Note: most of the places touched in this patch will need further work
when we get around to supporting hashing of record types.
We need this now because we allow domains over arrays, and we'll probably
allow domains over composites pretty soon, which makes the problem even
more obvious.
Although domains over arrays also exist in previous versions, this does not
need to be back-patched, because the coding used in older versions
successfully "looked through" domains over arrays. The problem is exposed
by not treating a domain as having a typelem.
Problem identified by Noah Misch, though I did not use his patch, since
it would require additional work to handle domains over composites that
way. This approach is more future-proof.
On further analysis, it turns out that it is not needed to duplicate predicate
locks to the new row version at update, the lock on the version that the
transaction saw as visible is enough. However, there was a different bug in
the code that checks for dangerous structures when a new rw-conflict happens.
Fix that bug, and remove all the row-version chaining related code.

loop if it fails, which is what what happened on my HP-UX box. (I think
the reason it failed on that box is a misconfiguration on my behalf, but
that's no reason to hang.)
This doesn't work as expected because the isolationtester program requires
libpq to already be installed. While it works when you've already installed
libpq, having to already have done "make install" defeats most of the point
of a check with a temp installation. And there are weird corner cases if
the dynamic linker picks up an old libpq.so from system library directories.
Remove the target (or more precisely, make it print a helpful message) so
people don't expect the case to work.
Remove random system #includes in favor of using postgres_fe.h. (The
alternative to that is letting this module grow its own configuration
testing ability...)
Also fix the "make clean" target to actually clean things up.
Per local testing.
The style is set to "printf" for backwards compatibility everywhere except
on Windows, where it is set to "gnu_printf", which eliminates hundreds of
false error messages from modern versions of gcc arising from %m and %ll{d,u}
formats.
Added a new option --extra-install to pg_regress to arrange installing
the respective contrib directory into the temporary installation.
This is currently not yet supported for Windows MSVC builds.
Updated the .gitignore files for contrib modules to ignore the
leftovers of a temp-install check run.
Changed the exit status of "make check" in a pgxs build (which still
does nothing) to 0 from 1.
Added "make check" in contrib to top-level "make check-world".
Teach the program and script to deal with OID-array referencing columns,
which we now have several of. Also, modify the recommended usage process
to specify that the program should be run against the regression database
rather than template1. This lets it find numerous joins that cannot be
found in template1 because the relevant catalogs are entirely empty.
Together these changes add seventeen formerly-missed cases to the oidjoins
regression test.
This test should now work in any database with UTF8 encoding, regardless
of the database's default locale. The former restriction was really
"doesn't work if default locale is C", and that was because of not handling
mbstowcs/wcstombs correctly.
This syntax allows a standalone table to be made into a typed table,
or a typed table to be made standalone. This is possibly a mildly
useful feature in its own right, but the real motivation for this
change is that we need it to make pg_upgrade work with typed tables.
This doesn't actually fix that problem, but it's necessary
infrastructure.

Per spec we ought to apply select_common_collation() across the expressions
in each column of the VALUES table. The original coding was just taking
the first row and assuming it was representative.
This patch adds a field to struct RangeTblEntry to carry the resolved
collations, so initdb is forced for changes in stored rule representation.
This also ensures that we take a relation lock on the composite type when
creating a typed table, which is necessary to prevent the composite type
and the typed table from getting out of step in the face of concurrent
DDL.
Noah Misch, with some changes.
In \d, be more careful to print collation only if it's not the default for
the column's data type. Avoid assuming that the name "default" is magic.
Fix \d on a composite type so that it will print per-column collations.
It's no longer the case that a composite type cannot have modifiers.
(In consequence, the expected outputs for composite-type regression tests
change.)
Fix \dD so that it will print collation for a domain, again only if it's
not the same as the base type's collation.
This allows the usual rules for assigning a collation to a local variable
to be overridden. Per discussion, it seems appropriate to support this
rather than forcing all local variables to have the argument-derived
collation.
