* Various small improvements and cleanups for PL/Perl.Andrew Dunstan2010-01-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Allow (ineffective) use of 'require' in plperl If the required module is not already loaded then it dies. So "use strict;" now works in plperl. - Pre-load the feature module if perl >= 5.10. So "use feature :5.10;" now works in plperl. - Stored procedure subs are now given names. The names are not visible in ordinary use, but they make tools like Devel::NYTProf and Devel::Cover much more useful. - Simplified and generalized the subroutine creation code. Now one code path for generating sub source code, not four. Can generate multiple 'use' statements with specific imports (which handles plperl.use_strict currently and can easily be extended to handle a plperl.use_feature=':5.12' in future). - Disallows use of Safe version 2.20 which is broken for PL/Perl. http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=72068 - Assorted minor optimizations by pre-growing data structures. Patch from Tim Bunce, reviewed by Alex Hunsaker.
* Remove the default_do_language parameter, instead making DO use a hardwiredTom Lane2010-01-26
| | | | | | | | default of "plpgsql". This is more reasonable than it was when the DO patch was written, because we have since decided that plpgsql should be installed by default. Per discussion, having a parameter for this doesn't seem useful enough to justify the risk of application breakage if the value is changed unexpectedly.

* Reformat the comments in pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.confPeter Eisentraut2010-01-26
| | | | | | | These files have apparently been edited over the years by a dozen people with as many different editor settings, which made the alignment of the paragraphs quite inconsistent and ugly. I made a pass of M-q with Emacs to straighten it out.
* Make the default pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf align at 8-character boundariesPeter Eisentraut2010-01-26
| | | | to make it easier to use with tabs.

* Add get_bit/set_bit functions for bit strings, paralleling those for bytea,Tom Lane2010-01-25
| | | | | | | | | and implement OVERLAY() for bit strings and bytea. In passing also convert text OVERLAY() to a true built-in, instead of relying on a SQL function. Leonardo F, reviewed by Kevin Grittner
* Add note that PREPARE TRANSACTION is for transaction managers, notHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-25
| | | | | regular applications. Also add a comment pointing out that tab-complition for PREPARE TRANSACTION is missing on purpose.
* Apply Tcl_Init() to the "hold" interpreter created by pltcl.Tom Lane2010-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | You might think this is unnecessary since that interpreter is never used to run code --- but it turns out that's wrong. As of Tcl 8.5, the "clock" command (alone among builtin Tcl commands) is partially implemented by loaded-on-demand Tcl code, which means that it fails if there's not unknown-command support, and also that it's impossible to run it directly in a safe interpreter. The way they get around the latter is that Tcl_CreateSlave() automatically sets up an alias command that forwards any execution of "clock" in a safe slave interpreter to its parent interpreter. Thus, when attempting to execute "clock" in trusted pltcl, the command actually executes in the "hold" interpreter, where it will fail if unknown-command support hasn't been introduced by sourcing the standard init.tcl script, which is done by Tcl_Init(). (This is a pretty dubious design decision on the Tcl boys' part, if you ask me ... but they didn't.) Back-patch all the way. It's not clear that anyone would try to use ancient versions of pltcl with a recent Tcl, but it's not clear they wouldn't, either. Also add a regression test using "clock", in branches that have regression test support for pltcl. Per recent trouble report from Kyle Bateman.
* Rewrite dblink_record_internal() and dblink_fetch() to use a tuplestoreJoe Conway2010-01-24
| | | | | | | (SFRM_Materialize mode) to return tuples. Since we don't return from the dblink function in tuplestore mode, release the PGresult with a PG_CATCH block on error. Also rearrange to share the same code to materialize the tuplestore. Patch by Takahiro Itagaki.
* Fix assorted core dumps and Assert failures that could occur duringTom Lane2010-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | AbortTransaction or AbortSubTransaction, when trying to clean up after an error that prevented (sub)transaction start from completing: * access to TopTransactionResourceOwner that might not exist * assert failure in AtEOXact_GUC, if AtStart_GUC not called yet * assert failure or core dump in AfterTriggerEndSubXact, if AfterTriggerBeginSubXact not called yet Per testing by injecting elog(ERROR) at successive steps in StartTransaction and StartSubTransaction. It's not clear whether all of these cases could really occur in the field, but at least one of them is easily exposed by simple stress testing, as per my accidental discovery yesterday.
* Add missing closing tag.Magnus Hagander2010-01-24

* Insert CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS calls into loops in dbsize.c, to ensure thatTom Lane2010-01-23
| | | | | | the various disk-size-reporting functions will respond to query cancel reasonably promptly even in very large databases. Per report from Kevin Grittner.
* Add explanatory detail to Hot Standby cancelation error messagesSimon Riggs2010-01-23
| | | | with errdetail(). Add errhint() to suggest retry in certain cases.
* In HS, Startup process sets SIGALRM when waiting for buffer pin. IfSimon Riggs2010-01-23
| | | | | | | woken by alarm we send SIGUSR1 to all backends requesting that they check to see if they are blocking Startup process. If so, they throw ERROR/FATAL as for other conflict resolutions. Deadlock stop gap removed. max_standby_delay = -1 option removed to prevent deadlock.
* Revert mention that HTML documentation has to be built first.Bruce Momjian2010-01-22
| | | | Now require gmake 3.79.1 or later to build source/sgml.
* Fix mismatched tags introduced by attribute options patch.Robert Haas2010-01-22
| | | | Thanks to Devrim Gunduz for the report.
* Fix several oversights in previous commit - attribute options patch.Robert Haas2010-01-22
| | | | I failed to 'cvs add' the new files and also neglected to bump catversion.
* Replace ALTER TABLE ... SET STATISTICS DISTINCT with a more general mechanism.Robert Haas2010-01-22
| | | | | | | | | Attributes can now have options, just as relations and tablespaces do, and the reloptions code is used to parse, validate, and store them. For simplicity and because these options are not performance critical, we store them in a separate cache rather than the main relcache. Thanks to Alex Hunsaker for the review.
* Document that the HTML documentation must be built before the PDFBruce Momjian2010-01-22

* PL/Python DO handlerPeter Eisentraut2010-01-22
| | | | | | | Also cleaned up some redundancies between the primary error messages and the error context in PL/Python. Hannu Valtonen

* Fix unsafe loop test, and declare as_ident as bool rather than int.Robert Haas2010-01-21

* Add new escaping functions PQescapeLiteral and PQescapeIdentifier.Robert Haas2010-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | PQescapeLiteral is similar to PQescapeStringConn, but it relieves the caller of the need to know how large the output buffer should be, and it provides the appropriate quoting (in addition to escaping special characers within the string). PQescapeIdentifier provides similar functionality for escaping identifiers. Per recent discussion with Tom Lane.

* Better internal documentation of locking for Hot Standby conflict resolution.Simon Riggs2010-01-21
| | | | | | Discuss the reasons for the lock type we hold on ProcArrayLock while deriving the conflict list. Cover the idea of false positive conflicts and seemingly strange effects on snapshot derivation.
* Well, the systemtap guys moved the goalposts again: with the latest version,Tom Lane2010-01-20
| | | | | | we *must* generate probes.o or the dtrace probes don't work. Revert our workaround for their previous bug. Details at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=557266
* Add user-specific .pg_service.conf filePeter Eisentraut2010-01-20
| | | | | This extends the existing pg_service.conf facility to first look for a service definition file in the user's home directory.
* Fix bogus subdir setting. Again. I must've unfixed it by accident whileHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-20
| | | | moving files around.
* Write a WAL record whenever we perform an operation without WAL-loggingHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-20
| | | | | | | | that would've been WAL-logged if archiving was enabled. If we encounter such records in archive recovery anyway, we know that some data is missing from the log. A WARNING is emitted in that case. Original patch by Fujii Masao, with changes by me.
* Now that much of walreceiver has been pulled back into the postgresHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-20
| | | | | | | binary, revert PGDLLIMPORT decoration of global variables. I'm not sure if there's any real harm from unnecessary PGDLLIMPORTs, but these are all internal variables that external modules really shouldn't be messing with. ThisTimeLineID still needs PGDLLIMPORT.
* Add missing "!= NULL", for the sake of consistency.Heikki Linnakangas2010-01-20
| | | | Fujii Masao
* Adjust windows makefiles too, now that the walreceiver dynamic moduleHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-20

* Adjust MSVC build script too, now that the walreceiver dynamic moduleHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-20

* Rethink the way walreceiver is linked into the backend. Instead than shovingHeikki Linnakangas2010-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | walreceiver as whole into a dynamically loaded module, split the libpq-specific parts of it into dynamically loaded module and keep the rest in the main backend binary. Although Tom fixed the Windows compilation problems with the old walreceiver module already, this is a cleaner division of labour and makes the code more readable. There's also the prospect of adding new transport methods as pluggable modules in the future, which this patch makes easier, though for now the API between libpqwalreceiver and walreceiver process should be considered private. The libpq-specific module is now in src/backend/replication/libpqwalreceiver, and the part linked with postgres binary is in src/backend/replication/walreceiver.c.
* Before attempting to create a composite type, check whether a type of thatPeter Eisentraut2010-01-20
| | | | | | name already exists, so we'd get an error message about a "type" instead of about a "relation", because the composite type code shares code with relation creation.

* Add utility functions to PLPerl:Andrew Dunstan2010-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | quote_literal, quote_nullable, quote_ident, encode_bytea, decode_bytea, looks_like_number, encode_array_literal, encode_array_constructor. Split SPI.xs into two - SPI.xs now contains only SPI functions. Remainder are in new Util.xs. Some more code and documentation cleanup along the way, as well as adding some CVS markers to files missing them. Original patch from Tim Bunce, with a little editing from me.
