Thom Brown and Robert Haas. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=ea2c2641f908cde198a9999100d847078a05385b">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=ea2c2641f908cde198a9999100d847078a05385b</a></li> <li>Fix thinko in ALTER FOREIGN TABLE documentation. Noah Misch. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=558d1c95ae6afb8728f70a150c593f7e7aa5fac1">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=558d1c95ae6afb8728f70a150c593f7e7aa5fac1</a></li> <li>Correct ALTER TYPE -&gt; SET DATA TYPE in ALTER TABLE documentation. The latter is the correct name of the operation to change the data type of a column. Noah Misch. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=2b2b2ae2aa4a7089aee729e67bb323154da3841a">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=2b2b2ae2aa4a7089aee729e67bb323154da3841a</a></li> <li>Remove arbitrary ALTER TABLE .. ADD COLUMN restriction. The previous coding prevented ALTER TABLE .. ADD COLUMN from being used with a non-NULL default in situations where the table's rowtype was being used elsewhere. But this is a completely arbitrary restriction since you could do the same operation in multiple steps (add the column, add the default, update the table). Inspired by a patch from Noah Misch, though I didn't use his code. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=a06e41deebdf74b8b5109329dc75b2e9d9057962">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=a06e41deebdf74b8b5109329dc75b2e9d9057962</a></li> <li>Add a comment explaining why we force physical removal of OIDs. Noah Misch, slightly revised. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5c2a7c6e97741564ab4ff336eac8d8227485dd4c">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5c2a7c6e97741564ab4ff336eac8d8227485dd4c</a></li> <li>Restore ALTER TABLE .. ADD COLUMN w/DEFAULT restriction. This reverts commit a06e41deebdf74b8b5109329dc75b2e9d9057962 of 2011-01-26. Per discussion, this behavior is not wanted, as it would need to change if we ever made composite types support DEFAULT. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=a40b1e0bf32b1da46c1baa9bc7da87f207cd37d8">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=a40b1e0bf32b1da46c1baa9bc7da87f207cd37d8</a></li> <li>Try to avoid running with a full fsync request queue. When we need to insert a new entry and the queue is full, compact the entire queue in the hopes of making room for the new entry. Doing this on every insertion might worsen contention on BgWriterCommLock, but when the queue it's full, it's far better than allowing the backend to perform its own fsync, per testing by Greg Smith as reported in <a target="_blank" href="http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2011-01/msg02665.php">http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2011-01/msg02665.php</a> Original idea from Greg Smith. Patch by me. Review by Chris Browne and Greg Smith <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=7f242d880b5b5d9642675517466d31373961cf98">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=7f242d880b5b5d9642675517466d31373961cf98</a></li> </ul> <p>Peter Eisentraut a pouss&eacute;&nbsp;:</p> <ul> <li>Refactor PLy_spi_prepare to save two levels of indentation. Instead of checking whether the arglist is NULL and then if its length is 0, do it in one step, and outside of the try/catch block. Jan Urba&#324;ski <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=52713d02c73926898629e349a9804cd0cae0470b">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=52713d02c73926898629e349a9804cd0cae0470b</a></li> <li>Call PLy_spi_execute_fetch_result inside the try/catch block. This way errors from fetching tuples are correctly reported as errors in the SPI call. While at it, avoid palloc(0). Jan Urba&#324;ski <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=88dcdf9007895b6703dfaf90d15244055384c603">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=88dcdf9007895b6703dfaf90d15244055384c603</a></li> <li>Document the "S" option for psql's \dn command in the psql help. This option was recently introduced, but the documentation in help.c was not updated. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=77ff840835bc40693f36281ab394de881cb327eb">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=77ff840835bc40693f36281ab394de881cb327eb</a></li> <li>Fix compiler warnings. Older versions of GCC appear to report these with the current standard option set, newer versions need -Wformat-security. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=ddf8c1682237119bf66949050e223c2151329f4c">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=ddf8c1682237119bf66949050e223c2151329f4c</a></li> <li>autoreconf. Synchronize pg_config.h.in with configure.in (someone must have forgotten to run autoheader or autoreconf), and clean up some spurious change in configure introduced by the last commit there. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=6fe5e4e63ee274e66c36dce999978a3fee8cf4c6">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=6fe5e4e63ee274e66c36dce999978a3fee8cf4c6</a></li> <li>Improve exception usage in PL/Python. Use the built-in TypeError, not SPIError, for errors having to do with argument counts or types. Use SPIError, not simply plpy.Error, for errors in PLy_spi_execute_plan. Finally, do not set a Python exception if PyArg_ParseTuple failed, as it already sets the correct exception. Jan Urba&#324;ski <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=582b5ac62e74a553e72151b321804a7b2e5fed6f">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=582b5ac62e74a553e72151b321804a7b2e5fed6f</a></li> <li>Do not prefix error messages with the string "PL/Python: " It is redundant, given the error context. Jan Urba&#324;ski <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5829738868f8d87263b6d31675e08147d8d7c188">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5829738868f8d87263b6d31675e08147d8d7c188</a></li> <li>Use -Wformat-security when available. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=8b6f5f25102f9e2503ce18af77b6fd547a2192ca">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=8b6f5f25102f9e2503ce18af77b6fd547a2192ca</a></li> <li>Also save the error detail in SPIError. The temporarily broken plpython_unicode test shows a case where this is used.

There isn't any need to track this state on a table-wide basis, and trying to do so introduces undesirable semantic fuzziness. Move the flag to pg_index, where it clearly describes just a single index and can be immutable after index creation. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=bd1ad1b019cda851a3e925133c056930368e6424">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=bd1ad1b019cda851a3e925133c056930368e6424</a></li> <li>Remove old claim that ExclusiveLock is sometimes taken on system catalogs.

Also add a bit more documentation for ShareRowExclusive mode. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5042d16d1210d1a10a896a0fcf81230ff4b0e383">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5042d16d1210d1a10a896a0fcf81230ff4b0e383</a></li> <li>Change inv_truncate() to not repeat its systable_getnext_ordered() scan. In the case where the initial call of systable_getnext_ordered() returned NULL, this function would nonetheless call it again. That's undefined behavior that only by chance failed to not give visibly incorrect results. Put an if-test around the final loop to prevent that, and in passing improve some comments. No back-patch since there's no actual failure. Per report from YAMAMOTO Takashi. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab6f2da23516e48174f3f144ee9ef19bdc287fb">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab6f2da23516e48174f3f144ee9ef19bdc287fb</a></li> <li>Improve grammar and spelling in durability discussion. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=85f345bec2d7f2ccb67b98b06342c86372ecf3b1">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=85f345bec2d7f2ccb67b98b06342c86372ecf3b1</a></li> <li>Update release notes for releases 9.0.3, 8.4.7, 8.3.14, and 8.2.20. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=29d442199ac978b2272d1d96648585943f499fe6">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=29d442199ac978b2272d1d96648585943f499fe6</a></li> <li>Don't include &lt;asm/ia64regs.h&gt; unnecessarily. We only need that header when compiling with icc, since the gcc variant of ia64_get_bsp() uses in-line assembly code. Per report from Frank Brendel, the header doesn't exist on all IA64 platforms; so don't include it unless we need it. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=0ac8c8df85951a6c4815f5e8e0491b6bba4534b7">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=0ac8c8df85951a6c4815f5e8e0491b6bba4534b7</a></li> <li>Update release notes.

The link to the CREATE CONVERSION manual page was split across a page boundary in the PDF output, leading to "\pdfendlink ended up in different nesting level than \pdfstartlink" error while building PDFs. It wouldn't be worth changing text that's undergoing active editing to avoid this, since other editing might result in moving the link away from the page end anyway. But this paragraph has been static for a long time, so might as well fix it to prevent it from being an issue in future. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=20a0f97273e765598420b261685764b40810c812">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=20a0f97273e765598420b261685764b40810c812</a></li> <li>Copy-edit a paragraph in the contrib/seg documentation. Although this improves the style, an ulterior motive is to keep the two table links from breaking across lines in PDF output, per complaint from Josh Kupershmidt. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=b2826ad52d72195317a13c2074a5cd002c98a338">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=b2826ad52d72195317a13c2074a5cd002c98a338</a></li> <li>Make installation.sgml build standalone again. We must not try to link to sections that aren't part of the standalone "make INSTALL" build. Corrects build failure introduced in commit 159e3d86292cfec2a2828f9f69ac7a6cb1be242d. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=6f489dca65e97d92fb01ee6811ece4e215d186ca">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=6f489dca65e97d92fb01ee6811ece4e215d186ca</a></li> <li>Make reduce_outer_joins() smarter about semijoins. reduce_outer_joins() mistakenly treated a semijoin like a left join for purposes of deciding whether not-null constraints created by the join's quals could be passed down into the join's left-hand side (possibly resulting in outer-join simplification there). Actually, semijoin works like inner join for this purpose, ie, we do not need to see any rows that can't possibly satisfy the quals. Hence, two-line fix to treat semi and inner joins alike. Per observation by Andres Freund about a performance gripe from Yazan Suleiman. Back-patch to 8.4, since this oversight has been there since the current handling of semijoins was implemented. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=9688c4e6f1516d2fc0db5d200112c4d91538878d">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=9688c4e6f1516d2fc0db5d200112c4d91538878d</a></li> </ul> <p>ITAGAKI Takahiro a pouss&eacute;&nbsp;:</p> <ul> <li>Make 'on' uppercase in a sql example. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=69039ea8b5569caf09b211f46fa9064468fee3b3">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=69039ea8b5569caf09b211f46fa9064468fee3b3</a></li> </ul> <p>Marc Fournier a pouss&eacute;&nbsp;:</p> <ul> <li>Tag 9.0.3. 8.4.7, 8.3.14, 8.2.20. <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=2fb64d857003c91378ba86b03d753a63ebee95b2">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=2fb64d857003c91378ba86b03d753a63ebee95b2</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=7df910c7d128b775220d529e23813bb4663dba4e">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=7df910c7d128b775220d529e23813bb4663dba4e</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5370e1a0014e17f0a3c8f65601c3145c824d9b3f">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=5370e1a0014e17f0a3c8f65601c3145c824d9b3f</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=f62f223b8e7519d741203d71f5bd8fc7693c0b41">http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=f62f223b8e7519d741203d71f5bd8fc7693c0b41</a></li> </ul> <p>Andrew Dunstan a pouss&eacute;&nbsp;:</p> <ul> <li>Enable building with the Mingw64 compiler.
