to MemSet is a performance boost.

(overlaying low byte of page size) and add HEAP_HASOID bit to t_infomask,
per earlier discussion.  Simplify scheme for overlaying fields in tuple
header (no need for cmax to live in more than one place).  Don't try to
clear infomask status bits in tqual.c --- not safe to do it there.  Don't
try to force output table of a SELECT INTO to have OIDs, either.  Get rid
of unnecessarily complex three-state scheme for TupleDesc.tdhasoids, which
has already caused one recent failure.  Improve documentation.

now just below FATAL in server_min_messages.  Added more text to
highlight ordering difference between it and client_min_messages.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

REALLYFATAL => PANIC
STOP => PANIC
New INFO level the prints to client by default
New LOG level the prints to server log by default
Cause VACUUM information to print only to the client
NOTICE => INFO where purely information messages are sent
DEBUG => LOG for purely server status messages
DEBUG removed, kept as backward compatible
DEBUG5, DEBUG4, DEBUG3, DEBUG2, DEBUG1 added
DebugLvl removed in favor of new DEBUG[1-5] symbols
New server_min_messages GUC parameter with values:
        DEBUG[5-1], INFO, NOTICE, ERROR, LOG, FATAL, PANIC
New client_min_messages GUC parameter with values:
        DEBUG[5-1], LOG, INFO, NOTICE, ERROR, FATAL, PANIC
Server startup now logged with LOG instead of DEBUG
Remove debug_level GUC parameter
elog() numbers now start at 10
Add test to print error message if older elog() values are passed to elog()
Bootstrap mode now has a -d that requires an argument, like postmaster

tests pass.

trees (mostly my fault).  Repair.  Also fix long-standing bug in ExecReplace:
after recomputing a concurrently updated tuple, we must recheck constraints.
Make EvalPlanQual leak memory with somewhat less enthusiasm than before,
although plugging leaks fully will require more changes than I care to risk
in a dot-release.

to their children, leading to misbehavior if they had any children that paid
attention to chgParam (most plan node types don't).  Append's bug has been
there a long time, but nobody had noticed because it used to be difficult
to create a query where an Append would be used below the top level of a
plan; so there were never any parameters getting passed down.  SubqueryScan
is new in 7.1 ... and I'd modeled its behavior on Append :-(

joins, and clean things up a good deal at the same time.  Append plan node
no longer hacks on rangetable at runtime --- instead, all child tables are
given their own RT entries during planning.  Concept of multiple target
tables pushed up into execMain, replacing bug-prone implementation within
nodeAppend.  Planner now supports generating Append plans for inheritance
sets either at the top of the plan (the old way) or at the bottom.  Expanding
at the bottom is appropriate for tables used as sources, since they may
appear inside an outer join; but we must still expand at the top when the
target of an UPDATE or DELETE is an inheritance set, because we actually need
a different targetlist and junkfilter for each target table in that case.
Fortunately a target table can't be inside an outer join...  Bizarre mutual
recursion between union_planner and prepunion.c is gone --- in fact,
union_planner doesn't really have much to do with union queries anymore,
so I renamed it grouping_planner.

and improperly prevented the main result rel from being closed if it
wasn't one of the Append's own result rels.  Per report from Hiroshi.

SQL92 semantics, including support for ALL option.  All three can be used
in subqueries and views.  DISTINCT and ORDER BY work now in views, too.
This rewrite fixes many problems with cross-datatype UNIONs and INSERT/SELECT
where the SELECT yields different datatypes than the INSERT needs.  I did
that by making UNION subqueries and SELECT in INSERT be treated like
subselects-in-FROM, thereby allowing an extra level of targetlist where the
datatype conversions can be inserted safely.
INITDB NEEDED!

memory contexts.  Currently, only leaks in expressions executed as
quals or projections are handled.  Clean up some old dead cruft in
executor while at it --- unused fields in state nodes, that sort of thing.

discussion of 5/19/00).  pg_index is now searched for indexes of a
relation using an indexscan.  Moreover, this is done once and cached
in the relcache entry for the relation, in the form of a list of OIDs
for the indexes.  This list is used by the parser and executor to drive
lookups in the pg_index syscache when they want to know the properties
of the indexes.  Net result: index information will be fully cached
for repetitive operations such as inserts.

indexes to open.  Avoid unnecessary work in ExecCheckPerm, too.

in the TupleDesc that the caller already has (for call from ExecMain) or
can make just as easily as ExecInitJunkFilter() can (for call from
ExecAppend).  Also, don't bother to build a junk filter for an INSERT
operation that doesn't actually need one, which is the normal case.

* Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22).
* Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info,
and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all
backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex
hashtable that was used before).  Add databaseOID to PROC structs.
* Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of
a database containing running backends.  (It's a little tricky to prevent
a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new
backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up
its database in pg_database.  My solution is to recheck that the DB is
OK at the end of InitPostgres.  It may not be a 100% solution, but it's
a lot better than no interlock at all...)
* In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the
rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from
mdblindwrt().
* Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current
sources :-(.
You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.

additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or
'NoLock' to do no lock processing).  Ensure that all relations are locked
with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures
that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent
problems caused by concurrent VACUUM.  Fix several bugs having to do with
mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched
heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing).  A bogus ref count on
a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to
arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this
sloppiness for so long.  Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in
DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi.
Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the
Relation struct layout slightly.
Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.

Ok. I made patches replacing all of "#if FALSE" or "#if 0" to "#ifdef
NOT_USED" for current. I have tested these patches in that the
postgres binaries are identical.
