pgsql: Repair problems occurring when multiple RI updates have to be

Log Message:
-----------
Repair problems occurring when multiple RI updates have to be done to the same
row within one query: we were firing check triggers before all the updates
were done, leading to bogus failures. Fix by making the triggers queued by
an RI update go at the end of the outer query's trigger event list, thereby
effectively making the processing "breadth-first". This was indeed how it
worked pre-8.0, so the bug does not occur in the 7.x branches.
Per report from Pavel Stehule.

does not seem to have a 1.45 revision. Indeed, the changeset in this
patch for this file is in 1.44, not 1.45.

Any ideas what might have happened? Maybe this was changed when the
bogus REL7_4_STABLE tag was removed?

No, 1.44 was a month ago. 1.45 does exist in the master CVS repo
AFAICS.

It looks to me like cvsweb is showing a version that hasn't gotten
updated for a day or two. Some fallout of the master server move
no doubt.

Yes, it seems to be caused by the bug in the rsync server on the old
machine. It gets fixed eventually by itself (I pushed it through now).

Marc - how much work to update that one on the old server? I know you
have a new one coming up, but as a stop-gap fix on the old one?

No, that's still waiting on your documentation.

But my question still stands - how much work to stop-gap fix it on the
old one?

Thanks!
Hopefully that should fix the short-term problem.

I'll try to take a look at the other one as soon as I can, hopefully
this weekend - if you have the docs by then.

Magnus has repeatedly asked you to document it on PMT as we have been
doing as a matter of course for everything for quite some time now.

We're not doing that to be a pita, but to help us run the kind of
professional infrastructure that the community has come to expect. That
means everything is documented, systems are built in standard ways
whereever possible, everything is monitored constantly, and backed up
left right and center.

So please help maintain that level of professionalism and document the
new VM you've built so it can be properly maintained in the future.

Regards, Dave.

+1, even I am following up with the team standard of trying to document
on PMT.

As our infrastructure continues to grow this is going to be vital. We
keep getting bigger, and the only way to track this stuff appropriately
is through documentation.
