before reporting command-complete message for the final command of a
query string. This way, any errors detected during finish_xact_command
(such as RI violations) will appear to be part of the final command,
rather than coming out after the command is reported complete. This
avoids confusing PQendcopy and other not-overly-bright clients.
Per Lee Harr's bug report of 25-Feb-02.
are now both invoked once per received SQL command (raw parsetree) from
pg_exec_query_string. BeginCommand is actually just an empty routine
at the moment --- all its former operations have been pushed into tuple
receiver setup routines in printtup.c. This makes for a clean distinction
between BeginCommand/EndCommand (once per command) and the tuple receiver
setup/teardown routines (once per ExecutorRun call), whereas the old code
was quite ad hoc. Along the way, clean up the calling conventions for
ExecutorRun a little bit.

Also ensure that this report comes from the 'original' command, not the
last command generated by rewrite; this fixes 7.2 breakage for INSERT

whether overenthusiastic acceptance of interrupts accounts for any real
bugs, but it definitely seems risky and unnecessary.

commit a performance improvement this late in the cycle, but 25% got
my attention...
per suggestion from Peter. Simplify several APIs by transmitting the
original argv location directly from main.c to ps_status.c, instead of
passing it down through several levels of subroutines.

logical place.

just after receipt of the startup packet. Now, postmaster children
that are waiting for client authentication response will show as
'postgres: user database host authentication'. Also, do an
init_ps_display for startup/shutdown/checkpoint subprocesses,
so that they are readily identifiable as well. Fix an obscure race
condition that could lead to Assert failure in the postmaster ---
attempting to start a checkpoint process before any connections have
been received led to calling PostmasterRandom before setting random_seed.
a hung client or lost connection can't indefinitely block a postmaster
child (not to mention the possibility of deliberate DoS attacks).
Timeout is controlled by new authentication_timeout GUC variable,
which I set to 60 seconds by default ... does that seem reasonable?
We will no longer try to send elog messages to the client before we have
initialized backend libpq (oops); however, reporting bogus commandline
switches via elog does work now (not irrelevant, because of PGOPTIONS).
Fix problem with inappropriate sending of checkpoint-process messages
to stderr.
platforms system(2) gets confused unless the signal handler is set to
SIG_DFL, not SIG_IGN. pgstats.c now uses pqsignal() as it should,
not signal(). Also, arrange for the stats collector process to show
a reasonable ID in 'ps', rather than looking like a postmaster.
number in the data structure so that we can give at least a minimally
useful idea of where the mistake is when we issue syntax error messages.
Move the ClientAuthentication() call to where it should have been in
the first place, so that postmaster memory releasing can happen in a
reasonable place also. Update obsolete comments, correct one real bug

Ok, here it is. Cleared the ctx comment too - after -p
it will be PGC_BACKEND in any case.

a new postmaster child process. This should eliminate problems with
authentication blocking (e.g., ident, SSL init) and also reduce problems
with the accept queue filling up under heavy load.
The option to send elog output to a different file per backend (postgres -o)
has been disabled for now because the initialization would have to happen
in a different order and it's not clear we want to keep this anyway.
Here is Tomified version of my 2 pending patches.
Dropped the set_.._real change as it is not needed.
Desc would be:
* use GUC for settings from cmdline

datatypes, not only strings. parse_hook is useless for bool, I suppose,
but it seems possibly useful for int and double to apply variable-specific
constraints that are more complex than simple range limits. assign_hook
is definitely useful for all datatypes --- we need it right now for bool
to support date cache reset when changing Australian timezone rule setting.
Also, clean up some residual problems with the reset all/show all patch,
including memory leaks and mistaken reset of PostPortNumber. It seems
best that RESET ALL not touch variables that don't have SUSET or
USERSET context.
* Store two past checkpoint locations, not just one, in pg_control.
On startup, we fall back to the older checkpoint if the newer one
is unreadable. Also, a physical copy of the newest checkpoint record
is kept in pg_control for possible use in disaster recovery (ie,
complete loss of pg_xlog). Also add a version number for pg_control
itself. Remove archdir from pg_control; it ought to be a GUC
parameter, not a special case (not that it's implemented yet anyway).
* Suppress successive checkpoint records when nothing has been entered
in the WAL log since the last one. This is not so much to avoid I/O
as to make it actually useful to keep track of the last two
checkpoints. If the things are right next to each other then there's
not a lot of redundancy gained...
* Change CRC scheme to a true 64-bit CRC, not a pair of 32-bit CRCs
on alternate bytes. Polynomial borrowed from ECMA DLT1 standard.
* Fix XLOG record length handling so that it will work at BLCKSZ = 32k.
* Change XID allocation to work more like OID allocation. (This is of
dubious necessity, but I think it's a good idea anyway.)
* Fix a number of minor bugs, such as off-by-one logic for XLOG file
wraparound at the 4 gig mark.
* Add documentation and clean up some coding infelicities; move file
format declarations out to include files where planned contrib
utilities can get at them.
* Checkpoint will now occur every CHECKPOINT_SEGMENTS log segments or
every CHECKPOINT_TIMEOUT seconds, whichever comes first. It is also
possible to force a checkpoint by sending SIGUSR1 to the postmaster
(undocumented feature...)
* Defend against kill -9 postmaster by storing shmem block's key and ID
in postmaster.pid lockfile, and checking at startup to ensure that no
processes are still connected to old shmem block (if it still exists).
* Switch backends to accept SIGQUIT rather than SIGUSR1 for emergency
stop, for symmetry with postmaster and xlog utilities. Clean up signal
handling in bootstrap.c so that xlog utilities launched by postmaster
will react to signals better.
* Standalone bootstrap now grabs lockfile in target directory, as added
insurance against running it in parallel with live postmaster.
either wrong or unnecessary in most cases, and on systems where setting
status takes a kernel call, the overhead of setting status three times
per command rather than two is annoying.
are treated more like 'cancel' interrupts: the signal handler sets a
flag that is examined at well-defined spots, rather than trying to cope
with an interrupt that might happen anywhere. See pghackers discussion
of 1/12/01.
