We must set the visibility map bit before releasing our exclusive lock
on the heap page; otherwise, someone might clear the heap page bit
before we set the visibility map bit, leading to a situation where the
visibility map thinks the page is all-visible but it's really not.
This problem has existed since 8.4, but it wasn't critical before we
had index-only scans, since the worst case scenario was that the page
wouldn't get vacuumed until the next scan_all vacuum.
Along the way, a couple of minor, related improvements: (1) if we
pause the heap scan to do an index vac cycle, release any visibility
map page we're holding, since really long-running pins are not good
for a variety of reasons; and (2) warn if we see a page that's marked
all-visible in the visibility map but not on the page level, since
that should never happen any more (it was allowed in previous
releases, but not in 9.2).

Instead of an exact cost comparison, use a fuzzy comparison with 1e-10
delta after all other path metrics have proved equal. This is to avoid
having platform-specific roundoff behaviors determine the choice when
two paths are really the same to our cost estimators. Adjust the
recently-added test case that made it obvious we had a problem here.

The original syntax wasn't universally loved, and it didn't allow its
usage in CREATE TABLE, only ALTER TABLE. It now works everywhere, and
it also allows using ALTER TABLE ONLY to add an uninherited CHECK
constraint, per discussion.
The pg_constraint column has accordingly been renamed connoinherit.
This commit partly reverts some of the changes in
61d81bd28dbec65a6b144e0cd3d0bfe25913c3ac, particularly some pg_dump and
psql bits, because now pg_get_constraintdef includes the necessary NO
INHERIT within the constraint definition.

For an initial relation that lacks any join clauses (that is, it has to be
cartesian-product-joined to the rest of the query), we considered only
cartesian joins with initial rels appearing later in the initial-relations
list. This creates an undesirable dependency on FROM-list order. We would
never fail to find a plan, but perhaps we might not find the best available
plan. Noted while discussing the logic with Amit Kapila.
Improve the comments a bit in this area, too.
Arguably this is a bug fix, but given the lack of complaints from the
field I'll refrain from back-patching.

This patch adjusts the treatment of parameterized paths so that all paths
with the same parameterization (same set of required outer rels) for the
same relation will have the same rowcount estimate. We cache the rowcount
estimates to ensure that property, and hopefully save a few cycles too.
Doing this makes it practical for add_path_precheck to operate without
a rowcount estimate: it need only assume that paths with different
parameterizations never dominate each other, which is close enough to
true anyway for coarse filtering, because normally a more-parameterized
path should yield fewer rows thanks to having more join clauses to apply.
In add_path, we do the full nine yards of comparing rowcount estimates
along with everything else, so that we can discard parameterized paths that
don't actually have an advantage. This fixes some issues I'd found with
add_path rejecting parameterized paths on the grounds that they were more
expensive than not-parameterized ones, even though they yielded many fewer
rows and hence would be cheaper once subsequent joining was considered.
To make the same-rowcounts assumption valid, we have to require that any
parameterized path enforce *all* join clauses that could be obtained from
the particular set of outer rels, even if not all of them are useful for
indexing. This is required at both base scans and joins. It's a good
thing anyway since the net impact is that join quals are checked at the
lowest practical level in the join tree. Hence, discard the original
rather ad-hoc mechanism for choosing parameterization joinquals, and build
a better one that has a more principled rule for when clauses can be moved.
The original rule was actually buggy anyway for lack of knowledge about
which relations are part of an outer join's outer side; getting this right
requires adding an outer_relids field to RestrictInfo.

Previously, we used SetBufferCommitInfoNeedsSave, but that's really
intended for dirty-marks we can theoretically afford to lose, such as
hint bits. As for 9.2, the PD_ALL_VISIBLE mustn't be lost in this
way, since we could then end up with a heap page that isn't
all-visible and a visibility map page that is all visible, causing
index-only scans to return wrong answers.

A number of utility programs were rather careless about paremeters
that can be set via both an option argument and a positional
argument. This leads to results which can violate the Principal

arguments to override settings that have been made via positional
arguments. The changes are backpatched to all live branches.

When using synchronous replication, we waited for the commit record to be
replicated, but if we our transaction didn't write any other WAL records,
that's not required because we don't even flush the WAL locally to disk in
that case. This lead to long waits when committing a transaction that only
modified a temporary table. Bug spotted by Thom Brown.

So far as I can tell, it is no longer possible for this heuristic to do
anything useful, because the new weaker definition of
have_relevant_joinclause means that any relation with a joinclause must be
considered joinable to at least one other relation. It would still be
possible for the code block to be entered, for example if there are join
order restrictions that prevent any join of the current level from being
formed; but in that case it's just a waste of cycles to attempt to form
cartesian joins, since the restrictions will still apply.
Furthermore, IMO the existence of this code path can mask bugs elsewhere;
we would have noticed the problem with cartesian joins a lot sooner if
this code hadn't compensated for it in the simplest case.
Accordingly, let's remove it and see what happens. I'm committing this
separately from the prerequisite changes in have_relevant_joinclause,
just to make the question easier to revisit if there is some fault in
my logic.

We should be willing to cross-join two small relations if that allows us
to use an inner indexscan on a large relation (that is, the potential
indexqual for the large table requires both smaller relations). This
worked in simple cases but fell apart as soon as there was a join clause
to a fourth relation, because the existence of any two-relation join clause
caused the planner to not consider clauseless joins between other base
relations. The added regression test shows an example case adapted from
a recent complaint from Benoit Delbosc.
Adjust have_relevant_joinclause, have_relevant_eclass_joinclause, and
has_relevant_eclass_joinclause to consider that a join clause mentioning
three or more relations is sufficient grounds for joining any subset of
those relations, even if we have to do so via a cartesian join. Since such
clauses are relatively uncommon, this shouldn't affect planning speed on
typical queries; in fact it should help a bit, because the latter two
functions in particular get significantly simpler.
Although this is arguably a bug fix, I'm not going to risk back-patching
it, since it might have currently-unforeseen consequences.

Per mailing list discussion, we would like to keep the bytea functions
parallel to the text functions, so rename bytea_agg to string_agg,
which already exists for text.
Also, to satisfy the rule that we don't want aggregate functions of
the same name with a different number of arguments, add a delimiter
argument, just like string_agg for text already has.

cost_index's method for estimating per-tuple costs of evaluating filter
conditions (a/k/a qpquals) was completely wrong in the presence of derived
indexable conditions, such as range conditions derived from a LIKE clause.
This was largely masked in common cases as a result of all simple operator
clauses having about the same costs, but it could show up in a big way when
dealing with functional indexes containing expensive functions, as seen for
example in bug #6579 from Istvan Endredy. Rejigger the calculation to give
sane answers when the indexquals aren't a subset of the baserestrictinfo
list. As a side benefit, we now do the calculation properly for cases
involving join clauses (ie, parameterized indexscans), which we always
overestimated before.
There are still cases where this is an oversimplification, such as clauses
that can be dropped because they are implied by a partial index's
predicate. But we've never accounted for that in cost estimates before,
and I'm not convinced it's worth the cycles to try to do so.

Previously we attempted to throw an error or at least warning for missing
schemas, but this was done inconsistently because of implementation
restrictions (in many cases, GUC settings are applied outside transactions
so that we can't do system catalog lookups). Furthermore, there were
exceptions to the rule even in the beginning, and we'd been poking more
and more holes in it as time went on, because it turns out that there are
lots of use-cases for having some irrelevant items in a common search_path
value. It seems better to just adopt a philosophy similar to what's always
been done with Unix PATH settings, wherein nonexistent or unreadable
directories are silently ignored.
This commit also fixes the documentation to point out that schemas for
which the user lacks USAGE privilege are silently ignored. That's always
been true but was previously not documented.
This is mostly in response to Robert Haas' complaint that 9.1 started to
throw errors or warnings for missing schemas in cases where prior releases
had not. We won't adopt such a significant behavioral change in a back
branch, so something different will be needed in 9.1.

postgres:// URIs are an attempt to "stop the bleeding" in this general
area that has been said to occur due to external projects adopting their
own syntaxes. The syntaxes supported by this patch:
postgres://[user[:pwd]@][unix-socket][:port[/dbname]][?param1=value1&...]
postgres://[user[:pwd]@][net-location][:port][/dbname][?param1=value1&...]
should be enough to cover most interesting cases without having to
resort to "param=value" pairs, but those are provided for the cases that
need them regardless.
libpq documentation has been shuffled around a bit, to avoid stuffing
all the format details into the PQconnectdbParams description, which was
already a bit overwhelming. The list of keywords has moved to its own
subsection, and the details on the URI format live in another subsection.
This includes a simple test program, as requested in discussion, to
ensure that interesting corner cases continue to work appropriately in
the future.

This patch reverts commit 191ef2b407f065544ceed5700e42400857d9270f
and thereby restores the pre-7.3 behavior of EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM
timestamp-without-tz). Per discussion, the more recent behavior was
misguided on a couple of grounds: it makes it hard to get a
non-timezone-aware epoch value for a timestamp, and it makes this one
case dependent on the value of the timezone GUC, which is incompatible
with having timestamp_part() labeled as immutable.
The other behavior is still available (in all releases) by explicitly
casting the timestamp to timestamp with time zone before applying EXTRACT.
This will need to be called out as an incompatible change in the 9.2
release notes. Although having mutable behavior in a function marked
immutable is clearly a bug, we're not going to back-patch such a change.

The case could not arise when this code was originally written, but it can
now (since we made zero-column MergeJoins work for the benefit of FULL JOIN

treat it consistently with other uses of COPY_POINTER_FIELD(). Per comment

This was a thinko in previous commit. Now that stack base pointer is now set

We used to only initialize the stack base pointer when starting up a regular
backend, not in other processes. In particular, autovacuum workers can run
arbitrary user code, and without stack-depth checking, infinite recursion
in e.g an index expression will bring down the whole cluster.
The comment about PL/Java using set_stack_base() is not yet true. As the
code stands, PL/java still modifies the stack_base_ptr variable directly.
However, it's been discussed in the PL/Java mailing list that it should be
changed to use the function, because PL/Java is currently oblivious to the
register stack used on Itanium. There's another issues with PL/Java, namely
that the stack base pointer it sets is not really the base of the stack, it
could be something close to the bottom of the stack. That's a separate issue
that might need some further changes to this code, but that's a different
story.
Backpatch to all supported releases.

If we make the initially-called function return the table physical-size

foreign tables, for the moment, since among other things it's not very
clear how to handle remote permissions checks in an auto-analyze.)
contrib/file_fdw is extended to support this.
