rather than just $N.  This brings the display of nestloop-inner-indexscan
plans back to where it's been, and incidentally improves the display of
SubPlan parameters as well.  In passing, simplify the EXPLAIN code by
having it deal primarily in the PlanState tree rather than separately
searching Plan and PlanState trees.  This is noticeably cleaner for
subplans, and about a wash elsewhere.

One small difference from previous behavior is that EXPLAIN will no longer
qualify local variable references in inner-indexscan plan nodes, since it
no longer sees such nodes as possibly referencing multiple tables.  Vars
referenced through PARAM_EXEC Params are still forcibly qualified, though,
so I don't think the display is any more confusing than before.  Adjust a
couple of examples in the documentation to match this behavior.

because of file access limitations on that platform.

loop from being dropped, I missed subtransaction cleanup. Pinned portals
must be dropped at subtransaction cleanup just as they are at main
transaction cleanup.

Per bug #5556 by Robert Walker. Backpatch to 8.0, 7.4 didn't have
subtransactions.

relation using the general PARAM_EXEC executor parameter mechanism, rather
than the ad-hoc kluge of passing the outer tuple down through ExecReScan.
The previous method was hard to understand and could never be extended to
handle parameters coming from multiple join levels.  This patch doesn't
change the set of possible plans nor have any significant performance effect,
but it's necessary infrastructure for future generalization of the concept
of an inner indexscan plan.

ExecReScan's second parameter is now unused, so it's removed.

formatting conventions.

use the actual element type of the array it's disassembling, rather than
trusting the type OID passed in by its caller.  This is needed because
sometimes the planner passes in a type OID that's only binary-compatible
with the target column's type, rather than being an exact match.  Per an
example from Bernd Helmle.

Possibly we should refactor get_attstatsslot/free_attstatsslot to not expect
the caller to supply type ID data at all, but for now I'll just do the
minimum-change fix.

Back-patch to 7.4.  Bernd's test case only crashes back to 8.0, but since
these subroutines are the same in 7.4, I suspect there may be variant
cases that would crash 7.4 as well.

resjunk outputs of subquery tlists, instead of throwing an error.  Per bug
#5548 from Daniel Grace.

We might at some point find we ought to back-patch this further than 9.0,
but I think that such Vars can only occur as resjunk members of upper-level
tlists, in which case the problem can't arise because prior versions didn't
print resjunk tlist items in EXPLAIN VERBOSE.

copy mode, per report from depstein@alliedtesting.com.

Patch suggestion from Magnus.

Backpatch to 9.0.X.

This hook allows a loadable module to gain control when table permissions
are checked.  It is expected to be used by an eventual SE-PostgreSQL
implementation, but there are other possible applications as well.  A
sample contrib module can be found in the archives at:

SIO_KEEPALIVE_VALS define instead of just WIN32, since MingW doesn't
support this API (yet?).

This wasn't important when we used diff's -w (--ignore-all-space) option
to compare regression result files, but it is now.  Per buildfarm member

but came to life again today.

libpq support.

sub-select contains a join alias reference that expands into an expression
containing another sub-select.  Per yesterday's report from Merlin Moncure
and subsequent off-list investigation.

Back-patch to 7.4.  Older versions didn't attempt to flatten sub-selects in
ways that would trigger this problem.

To do that, replace L'\0' by (WCHAR) 0.  Perhaps someday we should teach
pgindent about wide-character literals, but so long as this is the only
use-case in the entire Postgres sources, a workaround seems easier.

caches, per June email thread.

Per extensive discussion on pgsql-hackers.  We are deliberately not
back-patching this even though the behavior of 8.3 and 8.4 is
unquestionably broken, for fear of breaking existing users of this
parameter.  This incompatibility should be release-noted.

flag for src/port/ in front of any -L flags placed in LDFLAGS by configure.
This undoes an L-flag-ordering change that I had thought would be safe,
but seems to be making at least one buildfarm member fail --- the only
theory for orca's failure that I can think of is that it's got an old
copy of libpgport.a in /usr/lib.  Also allow for LDFLAGS_SL to be set by
contrib makefiles before they invoke Makefile.global.

MacOS X uses TCP_KEEPALIVE rather than TCP_KEEPIDLE for this purpose.

Thanks to Fujii Masao for the review.
