Because coerce_type recurses into the argument of a CollateExpr, coerce_to_target_type's longstanding code for detecting whether coerce_type had actually done anything (to wit, returned a different node than it passed in) was broken in 9.1. This resulted in unexpected failures in hide_coercion_node; which was not the latter's fault, since it's critical that we never call it on anything that wasn't inserted by coerce_type. (Else we might decide to "hide" a user-written function call.) Fix by removing and replacing the CollateExpr in coerce_to_target_type itself. This is all pretty ugly but I don't immediately see a way to make it nicer. Per report from Jean-Yves F. Barbier.

This is allegedly a win, at least on some PPC implementations, according to the PPC ISA documents. However, as with LWARX hints, some PPC platforms give an illegal-instruction failure. Use the same trick as before of assuming that PPC64 platforms will accept it; we might need to refine that based on experience, but there are other projects doing likewise according to google. I did not add an assembler compatibility test because LWSYNC has been around much longer than hint bits, and it seems unlikely that any toolchains currently in use don't recognize it.

Previously we defined slock_t as 8 bytes on PPC64, but the TAS assembly code uses word-wide operations regardless, so that the second word was just wasted space. There doesn't appear to be any performance benefit in adding the second word, so get rid of it to simplify the code.

The hint bit makes for a small but measurable performance improvement in access to contended spinlocks. On the other hand, some PPC chips give an illegal-instruction failure. There doesn't seem to be a completely bulletproof way to tell whether the hint bit will cause an illegal-instruction failure other than by trying it; but most if not all 64-bit PPC machines should accept it, so follow the Linux kernel's lead and assume it's okay to use it in 64-bit builds. Of course we must also check whether the assembler accepts the command, since even with a recent CPU the toolchain could be old. Patch by Manabu Ori, significantly modified by me.

The original test cases gave varying results depending on whether the locale sorts digits before or after letters. Since that's not really what we wish to test here, adjust the test data to not contain any strings beginning with digits. Per report from Pavel Stehule.

All supported platforms support the C89 standard function atexit() (SunOS 4 probably being the last one not to), and supporting both makes the code clumsy.

In commit e2c2c2e8 I made use of nested list structures to show which clauses went with which index columns, but on reflection that's a data structure that only an old-line Lisp hacker could love. Worse, it adds unnecessary complication to the many places that don't much care which clauses go with which index columns. Revert to the previous arrangement of flat lists of clauses, and instead add a parallel integer list of column numbers. The places that care about the pairing can chase both lists with forboth(), while the places that don't care just examine one list the same as before. The only real downside to this is that there are now two more lists that need to be passed to amcostestimate functions in case they care about column matching (which btcostestimate does, so not passing the info is not an option). Rather than deal with 11-argument amcostestimate functions, pass just the IndexPath and expect the functions to extract fields from it. That gets us down to 7 arguments which is better than 11, and it seems more future-proof against likely additions to the information we keep about an index path.

It's potentially useful for an index to repeat the same indexable column or expression in multiple index columns, if the columns have different opclasses. (If they share opclasses too, the duplicate column is pretty useless, but nonetheless we've allowed such cases since 9.0.) However, the planner failed to cope with this, because createplan.c was relying on simple equal() matching to figure out which index column each index qual is intended for. We do have that information available upstream in indxpath.c, though, so the fix is to not flatten the multi-level indexquals list when putting it into an IndexPath. Then we can rely on the sublist structure to identify target index columns in createplan.c. There's a similar issue for index ORDER BYs (the KNNGIST feature), so introduce a multi-level-list representation for that too. This adds a bit more representational overhead, but we might more or less buy that back by not having to search for matching index columns anymore in createplan.c; likewise btcostestimate saves some cycles. Per bug #6351 from Christian Rudolph. Likely symptoms include the "btree index keys must be ordered by attribute" failure shown there, as well as "operator MMMM is not a member of opfamily NNNN". Although this is a pre-existing problem that can be demonstrated in 9.0 and 9.1, I'm not going to back-patch it, because the API changes in the planner seem likely to break things such as index plugins. The corner cases where this matters seem too narrow to justify possibly breaking things in a minor release.

When a view is marked as a security barrier, it will not be pulled up into the containing query, and no quals will be pushed down into it, so that no function or operator chosen by the user can be applied to rows not exposed by the view. Views not configured with this option cannot provide robust row-level security, but will perform far better. Patch by KaiGai Kohei; original problem report by Heikki Linnakangas (in October 2009!). Review (in earlier versions) by Noah Misch and others. Design advice by Tom Lane and myself. Further review and cleanup by me.

You could already rename domains using ALTER TYPE, but with this new command it is more consistent with how other commands treat domains as a subcategory of types.

This has been broken just about forever (or more specifically, commit 7f4981f4) and nobody noticed until Richard Huxton reported it recently. Analysis and fix by Ross Reedstrom, although I didn't use his patch. This doesn't seem important enough to back-patch and is mildly backward incompatible, so I'm just doing this in master.

We forgot to modify column ACLs, so privileges were still shown as having been granted by the old owner. This meant that neither the new owner nor a superuser could revoke the now-untraceable-to-table-owner permissions. Per bug #6350 from Marc Balmer. This has been wrong since column ACLs were added, so back-patch to 8.4.

In the previous coding, a user could queue up for an AccessExclusiveLock on a table they did not have permission to cluster, thus potentially interfering with access by authorized users who got stuck waiting behind the AccessExclusiveLock. This approach avoids that. cluster() has the same permissions-checking requirements as REINDEX TABLE, so this commit moves the now-shared callback to tablecmds.c and renames it, per discussion with Noah Misch.

When a PORTAL_ONE_SELECT query is executed, we can opportunistically reuse the parse/plan shot for the execution phase. This cuts down the number of snapshots per simple query from 2 to 1 for the simple protocol, and 3 to 2 for the extended protocol. Since we are only reusing a snapshot taken early in the processing of the same protocol message, the change shouldn't be user-visible, except that the remote possibility of the planning and execution snapshots being different is eliminated. Note that this change does not make it safe to assume that the parse/plan snapshot will certainly be reused; that will currently only happen if PortalStart() decides to use the PORTAL_ONE_SELECT strategy. It might be worth trying to provide some stronger guarantees here in the future, but for now we don't. Patch by me; review by Dimitri Fontaine.

The original coding of this function overlooked the possibility that it could be passed anything except simple OpExpr indexquals. But ScalarArrayOpExpr is possible too, and the code would probably crash (and surely give ridiculous answers) in such a case. Add logic to try to estimate sanely for such cases. In passing, fix the treatment of inner-indexscan cost estimation: it was failing to scale up properly for multiple iterations of a nestloop. (I think somebody might've thought that index_pages_fetched() is linear, but of course it's not.) Report, diagnosis, and preliminary patch by Marti Raudsepp; I refactored it a bit and fixed the cost estimation. Back-patch into 9.1 where the bogus code was introduced.
