Tom Lane	08fa6a6851	Editorial improvements for GIN documentation.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	a88ec7b4bb	Some more supported-platforms updates: buildfarm hare is alive again, ... and penguin reported in recently enough to justify the assumption that we haven't broken ARM support in 8.2.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	c184470be3	Document the recently-understood hazard that a rollback can release row-level ... locks that logically should not be released, because when a subtransaction overwrites XMAX all knowledge of the previous lock state is lost. It seems unlikely that we will be able to fix this before 8.3...	20 years ago
Tom Lane	3049fe7cfa	Make the bgwriter's error recovery path do smgrcloseall(). On Windows this ... should allow delete-pending files to actually go away, and thereby work around the various complaints we've seen about 'permission denied' errors in such cases. Should be reasonably harmless in any case...	20 years ago

Tom Lane	f378ccc261	Minor wording improvements.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	da6daee216	Adjust the description of locking to clarify that locks held by a ... subtransaction are released if the subtransaction aborts --- in user-level terminology, this means either rolling back to a savepoint or escaping from a plpgsql exception block. Per recent suggestion from Simon.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	746330e2d0	Better solution to the tr problem: use sed instead. Per Martijn and Andrew.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	7ac9d45f49	Improve portability of 'tr' invocation in PGAC_ARG_CHECK. Reported by ... Olivier Prenant, fixed by Peter.	20 years ago

Peter Eisentraut	f1e3e3238d	Fix typos	20 years ago
Tom Lane	5f60086e10	Minor adjustments to make failures in startup/shutdown behave more cleanly. ... StartupXLOG and ShutdownXLOG no longer need to be critical sections, because in all contexts where they are invoked, elog(ERROR) would be translated to elog(FATAL) anyway. (One change in bgwriter.c is needed to make this true: set ExitOnAnyError before trying to exit. This is a good fix anyway since the existing code would have gone into an infinite loop on elog(ERROR) during shutdown.) That avoids a misleading report of PANIC during semi-orderly failures. Modify the postmaster to include the startup process in the set of processes that get SIGTERM when a fast shutdown is requested, and also fix it to not try to restart the bgwriter if the bgwriter fails while trying to write the shutdown checkpoint. Net result is that "pg_ctl stop -m fast" does something reasonable for a system in warm standby mode, and so should Unix system shutdown (ie, universal SIGTERM). Per gripe from Stephen Harris and some corner-case testing of my own.	20 years ago

Tom Lane	765cc1588f	Update timezone data to tzdata2006p zic distribution. It seems Western ... Australia decided to institute DST with one month's notice ... way to go, politicians.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	64353640e8	Mark to_char(timestamp without timezone) as stable, not immutable, since its ... result now depends on the lc_messages setting, as noted by Bruce. Also, mark to_number() and the numeric-type variants of to_char() as stable, because their results depend on lc_numeric; this is a longstanding oversight. Also, mark to_date() and to_char(interval) as stable; although these appear not to depend on any GUC variables as of CVS HEAD, that seems a property unlikely to survive future improvements. It seems best to mark all the formatting functions stable and be done with it. catversion not bumped, because this does not seem critical enough to force a post-RC1 initdb, and anyway we cannot do so in the back branches.	20 years ago
Peter Eisentraut	a75ccd1def	Fix some translator comments so that xgettext finds them and pgindent does ... not destroy them. Maybe we can adjust pgindent sometime.	20 years ago
Peter Eisentraut	b64d2d2133	Add workaround for localizing May and abbreviated May differently. Idea ... of Dennis Björklund.	20 years ago

Tom Lane	a7a3d0f0d9	Update release notes for RC1.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	df3a6fe477	Fix psql's \copy command to ensure that it cycles libpq back to the idle state ... (in particular, causing the ReadyForQuery message to be eaten) before returning from do_copy. The only known consequence of failing to do so is that get_prompt might show a wrong result for the %x transaction status escape, as reported by Bernd Helmle; but it's possible there are other issues. Back-patch as far as 7.4, the oldest version supporting %x.	20 years ago
Bruce Momjian	9b15b14014	Revert (too late in beta): ... Fix to_char() locale handling to honor LC_TIME, not LC_MESSAGES. Euler Taveira de Oliveira	20 years ago
Tom Lane	988a87a03a	Change pg_stat_all_tables and sister views to put the recently-added ... vacuum/analyze timestamp columns at the end, rather than at a random spot in the middle as in the original patch. This was deemed more usable as well as less likely to break existing application code. initdb forced accordingly. In passing, remove former kluge for initializing pg_stat_file()'s pg_proc entry --- bootstrap mode was fixed recently so that this can be done without any hacks, but I overlooked this usage.	20 years ago
