* Fix a number of places that produced XX000 errors in the regression tests.Tom Lane2015-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's against project policy to use elog() for user-facing errors, or to omit an errcode() selection for errors that aren't supposed to be "can't happen" cases. Fix all the violations of this policy that result in ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR log entries during the standard regression tests, as errors that can reliably be triggered from SQL surely should be considered user-facing. I also looked through all the files touched by this commit and fixed other nearby problems of the same ilk. I do not claim to have fixed all violations of the policy, just the ones in these files. In a few places I also changed existing ERRCODE choices that didn't seem particularly appropriate; mainly replacing ERRCODE_SYNTAX_ERROR by something more specific. Back-patch to 9.5, but no further; changing ERRCODE assignments in stable branches doesn't seem like a good idea.
* Handle unexpected query results, especially NULLs, safely in connectby().Tom Lane2015-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | connectby() didn't adequately check that the constructed SQL query returns what it's expected to; in fact, since commit 08c33c426bfebb32 it wasn't checking that at all. This could result in a null-pointer-dereference crash if the constructed query returns only one column instead of the expected two. Less excitingly, it could also result in surprising data conversion failures if the constructed query returned values that were not I/O-conversion-compatible with the types specified by the query calling connectby(). In all branches, insist that the query return at least two columns; this seems like a minimal sanity check that can't break any reasonable use-cases. In HEAD, insist that the constructed query return the types specified by the outer query, including checking for typmod incompatibility, which the code never did even before it got broken. This is to hide the fact that the implementation does a conversion to text and back; someday we might want to improve that. In back branches, leave that alone, since adding a type check in a minor release is more likely to break things than make people happy. Type inconsistencies will continue to work so long as the actual type and declared type are I/O representation compatible, and otherwise will fail the same way they used to. Also, in all branches, be on guard for NULL results from the constructed query, which formerly would cause null-pointer dereference crashes. We now print the row with the NULL but don't recurse down from it. In passing, get rid of the rather pointless idea that build_tuplestore_recursively() should return the same tuplestore that's passed to it. Michael Paquier, adjusted somewhat by me

* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.

* Expose quote_literal_cstr() from core.Robert Haas2010-11-20
| | | | | | | | | This eliminates the need for inefficient implementions of this functionality in both contrib/dblink and contrib/tablefunc, so remove them. The upcoming patch implementing an in-core format() function will also require this functionality. In passing, add some regression tests.

* Previous fix for temporary file management broke returning a set fromHeikki Linnakangas2009-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | PL/pgSQL function within an exception handler. Make sure we use the right resource owner when we create the tuplestore to hold returned tuples. Simplify tuplestore API so that the caller doesn't need to be in the right memory context when calling tuplestore_put* functions. tuplestore.c automatically switches to the memory context used when the tuplestore was created. Tuplesort was already modified like this earlier. This patch also removes the now useless MemoryContextSwitch calls from callers. Report by Aleksei on pgsql-bugs on Dec 22 2009. Backpatch to 8.1, like the previous patch that broke this.

| | | | | | | | | not include postgres.h nor anything else it doesn't directly need. Add #includes to calling files as needed to compensate. Per my proposal of yesterday. This should be noted as a source code change in the 8.4 release notes, since it's likely to require changes in add-on modules.

* Refactor crosstab() to build and return a tuplestore instead of usingTom Lane2008-12-01
| | | | | | | value-per-call mode. This should be more efficient in normal usage, but the real problem with the prior coding was that it returned with a SPI call still active. That could cause problems if execution was interleaved with anything else that might use SPI.

* Be more tense about not creating tuplestores with randomAccess = true unlessTom Lane2008-10-29
| | | | | | | | backwards scan could actually happen. In particular, pass a flag to materialize-mode SRFs that tells them whether they need to require random access. In passing, also suppress unneeded backward-scan overhead for a Portal's holdStore tuplestore. Per my proposal about reducing I/O costs for tuplestores.
* Extend ExecMakeFunctionResult() to support set-returning functions that returnTom Lane2008-10-28
| | | | | | | | | via a tuplestore instead of value-per-call. Refactor a few things to reduce ensuing code duplication with nodeFunctionscan.c. This represents the reasonably noncontroversial part of my proposed patch to switch SQL functions over to returning tuplestores. For the moment, SQL functions still do things the old way. However, this change enables PL SRFs to be called in targetlists (observe changes in plperl regression results).

* Simplify and standardize conversions between TEXT datums and ordinary CTom Lane2008-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text, cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed. Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin, and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though). This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few places where it was easy, but much more could be done. Brendan Jurd and Tom Lane

* Clean up a couple of problems in crosstab_hash's use of a hash table.Tom Lane2007-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | The original coding leaked memory (at least 8K per crosstab_hash call) because it allowed the hash table to be allocated as a child of TopMemoryContext and then never freed it. Fix that by putting the hash table under per_query_ctx, instead. Also get rid of use of a static variable to point to the hash table. Aside from being ugly, that would actively do the wrong thing in the case of re-entrant calls to crosstab_hash, which are at least theoretically possible since it was expecting the static variable to stay valid across a SPI_execute call.

* Attached is a patch that replaces a bunch of places where StringInfosNeil Conway2006-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | are unnecessarily allocated on the heap rather than the stack. If the StringInfo doesn't outlive the stack frame in which it is created, there is no need to allocate it on the heap via makeStringInfo() -- stack allocation is faster. While it's not a big deal unless the code is in a critical path, I don't see a reason not to save a few cycles -- using stack allocation is not less readable. I also cleaned up a bit of code along the way: moved variable declarations into a more tightly-enclosing scope where possible, fixed some pointless copying of strings in dblink, etc.
* This patch makes the error message strings throughout the backendNeil Conway2006-03-01
| | | | | | | | more compliant with the error message style guide. In particular, errdetail should begin with a capital letter and end with a period, whereas errmsg should not. I also fixed a few related issues in passing, such as fixing the repeated misspelling of "lexeme" in contrib/tsearch2 (per Tom's suggestion).
* Re-run pgindent, fixing a problem where comment lines after a blankBruce Momjian2005-11-22

* Document get_call_result_type() and friends; mark TypeGetTupleDesc()Tom Lane2005-05-30
| | | | | | and RelationNameGetTupleDesc() as deprecated; remove uses of the latter in the contrib library. Along the way, clean up crosstab() code and documentation a little.
* Modify hash_search() API to prevent future occurrences of the errorTom Lane2005-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | spotted by Qingqing Zhou. The HASH_ENTER action now automatically fails with elog(ERROR) on out-of-memory --- which incidentally lets us eliminate duplicate error checks in quite a bunch of places. If you really need the old return-NULL-on-out-of-memory behavior, you can ask for HASH_ENTER_NULL. But there is now an Assert in that path checking that you aren't hoping to get that behavior in a palloc-based hash table. Along the way, remove the old HASH_FIND_SAVE/HASH_REMOVE_SAVED actions, which were not being used anywhere anymore, and were surely too ugly and unsafe to want to see revived again.

* Redesign query-snapshot timing so that volatile functions in READ COMMITTEDTom Lane2004-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | mode see a fresh snapshot for each command in the function, rather than using the latest interactive command's snapshot. Also, suppress fresh snapshots as well as CommandCounterIncrement inside STABLE and IMMUTABLE functions, instead using the snapshot taken for the most closely nested regular query. (This behavior is only sane for read-only functions, so the patch also enforces that such functions contain only SELECT commands.) As per my proposal of 6-Sep-2004; I note that I floated essentially the same proposal on 19-Jun-2002, but that discussion tailed off without any action. Since 8.0 seems like the right place to be taking possibly nontrivial backwards compatibility hits, let's get it done now.

This commit does not in itself do much for us, except eliminate the horrid memory leak associated with evaluation of whole-row variables. However, it lays the groundwork for allowing composite types as table columns, and perhaps some other useful features as well. Per my proposal of a few days ago.
