out that it's actually quite likely that a string that is an extension of
the given prefix will sort as larger than the "greater" string our previous
code created. To provide some defense against that, do the comparisons
against a modified string instead of just the bare prefix. We tack on
"Z", "z", "y", or "9", whichever is seen as largest in the current locale.
Testing suggests that this is sufficient at least for cases involving

Per bug #3723 from Sam Mason.
Backpatch as far as 7.4; AFAICT 7.3 does not have the issue, because it doesn't
have general-purpose expression indexes and so there must be at least one
column referenced by an index.
predictable manner; in particular that if you say ORDER BY output-column-ref,
it will in fact sort by that specific column even if there are multiple
syntactic matches. An example is
SELECT random() AS a, random() AS b FROM ... ORDER BY b, a;
While the use-case for this might be a bit debatable, it worked as expected
in earlier releases, so we should preserve the behavior for 8.3. Per my
recent proposal.
While at it, fix convert_subquery_pathkeys() to handle RelabelType stripping
in both directions; it needs this for the same reasons make_sort_from_pathkeys
does.
to be able to discard top-level RelabelType nodes on *both* sides of the
equivalence-class-to-target-list comparison, since make_pathkey_from_sortinfo
might either add or remove a RelabelType. Also fix the latter to do the
removal case cleanly. Per example from Peter.
make_greater_string() try harder to generate a string that's actually greater
than its input string. Before we just assumed that making a string that was
memcmp-greater was enough, but it is easy to generate examples where this is
not so when the locale is not C. Instead, loop until the relevant comparison
function agrees that the generated string is greater than the input.
Unfortunately this is probably not enough to guarantee that the generated
string is greater than all extensions of the input, so we cannot relax the
restriction to C locale for the LIKE/regex index optimization. But it should
at least improve the odds of getting a useful selectivity estimate in
prefix_selectivity(). Per example from Guillaume Smet.
Backpatch to 8.1, mainly because that's what the complainant is using...
negated-match operators. patternsel had been using the supplied operator as
though it were a positive-match operator, and thus obtaining a wrong result,
which was even more wrong after the caller subtracted it from 1. Seems
cleanest to give patternsel an explicit "negate" argument so that it knows
what's going on. Also install the same factorization scheme for pattern
join selectivity estimators; even though they are just stubs at the
moment, this may keep someone from making the same type of mistake when
they get filled out. Per report from Greg Mullane.
Backpatch to 8.2 --- previous releases do not show the problem because
patternsel() doesn't actually use the operator directly.
Add some more xml_init() calls that might not be necessary, but seem like a
good idea to avoid possible problems like we saw in xmlelement().
Fix unsafe assumption that you can keep using the tupledesc of a relcache
entry you don't have open.
Add missing error checks for SearchSysCache failure.
Get rid of handwritten array traversal in xpath() and O(N^2), broken-for-nulls

Manually adjust a lot of line breaks in places where the code is otherwise
gonna look pretty awful after pg_indent hacks it up (original author seems to

assuming that evaluation of its input expressions won't change the state of
libxml. This requires refactoring xml_init() to not call xmlInitParser(),
since now not all of its callers want that. I also tweaked things to avoid
repeated execution of one-time-only tests inside xml_init(), though this is
mostly for clarity rather than in hopes of saving any noticeable amount of
runtime. Per report from Sheikh Amjad and subsequent discussion.
In passing, fix a couple of inadequately schema-qualified queries.
foreign keys, one more time. Insist on matching up all three triggers before
we create a constraint; this will avoid creation of duplicate constraints
in scenarios where a broken FK constraint was repaired by re-adding the
constraint without removing the old partial trigger set. Basically, this will
work nicely in all cases where the FK was actually functioning correctly in
the database that was dumped. It will fail to restore an FK in just one case
where we theoretically could restore it: where we find the referenced table's
triggers and not the referencing table's trigger. However, in such a scenario
it's likely that the user doesn't even realize he still has an FK at all
(since the more-likely-to-fail cases aren't enforced), and we'd probably not
accomplish much except to cause the reload to fail because the data doesn't
meet the FK constraint. Also make the NOTICE logging still more verbose, by
adding detail about which of the triggers were found. This seems about all
we can do without solving the problem of getting the user's attention at
session end.
commands into proper foreign-key constraints. Believe the constraint name
given in the trigger arguments in preference to the trigger name --- to judge
from Olivier Prenant's example, pg_dump must at some time have used the
autogenerated trigger name there, though AFAICT no current release branch tip
does. Improve the emitted NOTICEs to provide more detail (PK table's name and
column names). Handle the case where pg_dump forgot to provide the FROM table
(a bug that never did get fixed in 7.0.x apparently). This commit doesn't
do anything about the question of what to do with incomplete trigger groups.
enabled) and autovacuum is on. Since there will be a steady stream of autovac
worker processes exiting and dropping gmon.out files, allowing them to make
separate subdirectories results in serious bloat; and it seems unlikely that
anyone will care about those profiles anyway. Limit the damage by forcing all
autovac workers to dump in one subdirectory, PGDATA/gprof/avworker/.
Per report from Jrg Beyer and subsequent discussion.
trigger definitions into regular foreign key constraints. This seems
necessary given that some people evidently never did get around to
running adddepend on their schemas, and without some sort of hack the
old definitions will no longer work. Per report from Olivier Prenant
and subsequent investigation.
RelabelType nodes when the sort key is binary-compatible with the sort
operator rather than having exactly its input type. We did this correctly
for index columns but not sort keys, leading to failure to notice that
a varchar index matches an ORDER BY request. This requires a bit more work
in make_sort_from_pathkeys, but not anyplace else that I can find.
Per bug report and subsequent discussion.

Instead put in a test to drop a NULL default at the last moment before
storing the catalog entry. This changes the behavior in a couple of ways:
* Specifying DEFAULT NULL when creating an inheritance child table will
successfully suppress inheritance of any default expression from the
parent's column, where formerly it failed to do so.
* Specifying DEFAULT NULL for a column of a domain type will correctly
override any default belonging to the domain; likewise for a sub-domain.
The latter change happens because by the time the clause is checked,
it won't be a simple null Const but a CoerceToDomain expression.
Personally I think this should be back-patched, but there doesn't seem to
be consensus for that on pgsql-hackers, so refraining.

that have default expressions different from their parent. First, if the
parent table's default expression has to be split out as a separate
ALTER TABLE command, we need a dependency constraint to ensure that the
child's command is given second. This is because the ALTER TABLE on the
parent will propagate to the child. (We can't prevent that by using ONLY on
the parent's command, since it's possible that other children exist that
should receive the inherited default.) Second, if the child has a NULL
default where the parent does not, we have to explicitly say DEFAULT NULL on
the child in order for this state to be preserved after reload. (The latter
actually doesn't work right because of a backend bug, but that is a separate
issue.)
Backpatch as far as 8.0. 7.x pg_dump has enough issues with altered tables
(due to lack of dependency analysis) that trying to fix this one doesn't seem
very productive.
