formats for geometric types. Per bug #5536 from Jon Strait, and my own
testing.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this doco has been wrong right
along -- we certainly haven't changed the I/O behavior of these types in
many years.
The previous commit to make copydir() interruptible prevented
postgres.exe from linking on MinGW and Cygwin, because on those
platforms libpgport_srv.a can't freely reference symbols defined
by the backend. Since that code is already backend-specific anyway,
just move the whole file into the backend rather than adding further
kludges to deal with the symbols needed by CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS().
This probably needs some further cleanup, but this commit just moves
the file as-is, which should hopefully be enough to turn the
buildfarm green again.
This makes ALTER DATABASE .. SET TABLESPACE and CREATE DATABASE more
sensitive to interrupts. Backpatch to 8.4, where ALTER DATABASE .. SET
TABLESPACE was introduced. We could go back further, but in the absence
of complaints about the CREATE DATABASE case it doesn't seem worth it.

but we have nevertheless exposed them to users via pg_get_expr(). It would
be too much maintenance effort to rigorously check the input, so put a hack
in place instead to restrict pg_get_expr() so that the argument must come
from one of the system catalog columns known to contain valid expressions.
Per report from Rushabh Lathia. Backpatch to 7.4 which is the oldest
supported version at the moment.
as well as fseeko, and to not assume that fseeko(fp, 0, SEEK_CUR) proves
anything. Also improve some related comments. Per my observation that
the SEEK_CUR test didn't actually work on some platforms, and subsequent
discussion with Robert Haas.
Back-patch to 8.4. In earlier releases it's not that important whether
we get the hasSeek test right, but with parallel restore it matters.
contain data offsets (which it won't, if pg_dump thought its output wasn't
seekable). To do that, remove an unnecessarily aggressive error check, and
instead fail if we get to the end of the archive without finding the desired
data item. Also improve the error message to be more specific about the
cause of the problem. Per discussion of recent report from Igor Neyman.
Back-patch to 8.4 where parallel restore was introduced.
The revised documentation makes it more clear that these are client-side
parameters, rather than server side parameters. It also puts the main
point of each parameter first, and consolidates the conditions under which
it might be ignored in a single list at the end.
of YYSTYPE, and hence returning the wrong answer for cases where a plpgsql
"unreserved keyword" really does conflict with a variable name. Obviously
I didn't test this enough :-(. Per bug #5524 from Peter Gagarinov.
This adds four additional connection parameters to libpq: keepalives,
keepalives_idle, keepalives_count, and keepalives_interval.
keepalives default to on, per discussion, but can be turned off by
specifying keepalives=0. The remaining parameters, where supported,
can be used to adjust how often keepalives are sent and how many
can be lost before the connection is broken.
The immediate motivation for this patch is to make sure that
walreceiver will eventually notice if the master reboots without
closing the connection cleanly, but it should be helpful in other
cases as well.

In HEAD, emit a warning when an operator named => is defined.
In both HEAD and the backbranches (except in 8.2, where contrib
modules do not have documentation), document that hstore's text =>
text operator may be removed in a future release, and encourage the
use of the hstore(text, text) function instead. This function only
exists in HEAD (previously, it was called tconvert), so backpatch
it back to 8.2, when hstore was added. Per discussion.
might close the cursor, rendering the Portal pointer to it invalid.
Closing the cursor in the middle of the loop is not a very sensible thing
to do, but we must handle it gracefully and throw an error instead of
crashing.
If such a Var appeared within a nested sub-select, we failed to translate it
correctly during pullup of the view, because the recursive call to
replace_rte_variables_mutator was looking for the wrong sublevels_up value.
Bug was introduced during the addition of the PlaceHolderVar mechanism.
Per bug #5514 from Marcos Castedo.
