We have seen one too many reports of people trying to use 9.1 extension
files in the old-fashioned way of sourcing them in psql. Not only does
that usually not work (due to failure to substitute for MODULE_PATHNAME
and/or @extschema@), but if it did work they'd get a collection of loose
objects not an extension. To prevent this, insert an \echo ... \quit
line that prints a suitable error message into each extension script file,
and teach commands/extension.c to ignore lines starting with \echo.
That should not only prevent any adverse consequences of loading a script
file the wrong way, but make it crystal clear to users that they need to
do it differently now.
Tom Lane, following an idea of Andrew Dunstan's. Back-patch into 9.1
... there is not going to be much value in this if we wait till 9.2.
Arrange for any problems with pre-existing settings to be reported as
WARNING not ERROR, so that we don't undesirably abort the loading of the
incoming add-on module. The bad setting is just discarded, as though it
had never been applied at all. (This requires a change in the API of
set_config_option. After some thought I decided the most potentially
useful addition was to allow callers to just pass in a desired elevel.)
Arrange to restore the complete stacked state of the variable, rather than
cheesily reinstalling only the active value. This ensures that custom GUCs
will behave unsurprisingly even when the module loading operation occurs
within nested subtransactions that have changed the active value. Since a
module load could occur as a result of, eg, a PL function call, this is not
an unlikely scenario.
walsender.h should depend on xlog.h, not vice versa. (Actually, the
inclusion was circular until a couple hours ago, which was even sillier;
but Bruce broke it in the expedient rather than logically correct
direction.) Because of that poor decision, plus blind application of
pgrminclude, we had a situation where half the system was depending on
xlog.h to include such unrelated stuff as array.h and guc.h. Clean up
the header inclusion, and manually revert a lot of what pgrminclude had
done so things build again.
This episode reinforces my feeling that pgrminclude should not be run
without adult supervision. Inclusion changes in header files in particular
need to be reviewed with great care. More generally, it'd be good if we
had a clearer notion of module layering to dictate which headers can sanely
include which others ... but that's a big task for another day.
Added a new option --extra-install to pg_regress to arrange installing
the respective contrib directory into the temporary installation.
This is currently not yet supported for Windows MSVC builds.
Updated the .gitignore files for contrib modules to ignore the
leftovers of a temp-install check run.
Changed the exit status of "make check" in a pgxs build (which still
does nothing) to 0 from 1.
Added "make check" in contrib to top-level "make check-world".
intarray and tsearch2 both reference core support functions in their GIN
opclasses, and the signatures of those functions changed for 9.1. We added
backwards-compatible pg_proc entries for the functions in order to allow
9.0 dump files to be restored at all, but that hack leaves the opclasses
pointing at pg_proc entries different from what they'd point to if the
contrib modules were installed fresh in 9.1. To forestall any possibility
of future problems, fix the opclasses to match fresh installs via the
expedient of direct UPDATEs on pg_amproc in the update-from-unpackaged
scripts. (Yech ... but the alternatives are worse, or require far more
effort than seems justified right now.)
Note: updating pg_amproc is sufficient because there will be no pg_depend
entries corresponding to these dependencies, since the referenced functions
are all pinned.
From first pass of testing. Notably, there seems to be no need for
adminpack--unpackaged--1.0.sql because none of the objects that the
old module creates would ever be dumped by pg_dump anyway (they are
all in pg_catalog).
It was never terribly consistent to use OR REPLACE (because of the lack of
comparable functionality for data types, operators, etc), and
experimentation shows that it's now positively pernicious in the extension
world. We really want a failure to occur if there are any conflicts, else
it's unclear what the extension-ownership state of the conflicted object
ought to be. Most of the time, CREATE EXTENSION will fail anyway because
of conflicts on other object types, but an extension defining only
functions can succeed, with bad results.
This isn't fully tested as yet, in particular I'm not sure that the
"foo--unpackaged--1.0.sql" scripts are OK. But it's time to get some
buildfarm cycles on it.
sepgsql is not converted to an extension, mainly because it seems to
require a very nonstandard installation process.

We should have done this in 8.4, probably, but better late than never.

in the formerly-always-blank columns just to left and right of the data.
Different marking is used for a line break caused by a newline in the data
than for a straight wraparound. A newline break is signaled by a "+" in the
right margin column in ASCII mode, or a carriage return arrow in UNICODE mode.
Wraparound is signaled by a dot in the right margin as well as the following
left margin in ASCII mode, or an ellipsis symbol in the same places in UNICODE
mode. "\pset linestyle old-ascii" is added to make the previous behavior
available if anyone really wants it.
In passing, this commit also cleans up a few regression test files that
had unintended spacing differences from the current actual output.

This is the core infrastructure needed to support the soon-to-appear
contrib/btree_gin module. The APIs are still upward compatible with the
definitions used in 8.3 and before, although *not* with the previous 8.4devel
function definitions.

"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent
discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need
8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery
searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some
other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the
index match is exact or not.

strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text,
cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and
two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of
existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed.
Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one
function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used
to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin,
and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via
memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though).
This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory
leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach
text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few
places where it was easy, but much more could be done.

This commit breaks any code that assumes that the mere act of forming a tuple
(without writing it to disk) does not "toast" any fields. While all available
regression tests pass, I'm not totally sure that we've fixed every nook and
cranny, especially in contrib.
