* Fix a passel of inappropriately-named global functions in GIN.Tom Lane2010-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GIN code has absolutely no business exporting GIN-specific functions with names as generic as compareItemPointers() or newScanKey(); that's just trouble waiting to happen. I got annoyed about this again just now and decided to fix it. This commit ensures that all global symbols defined in access/gin/ have names including "gin" or "Gin". There were a couple of cases, like names involving "PostingItem", where arguably the names were already sufficiently nongeneric; but I figured as long as I was risking creating merge problems for unapplied GIN patches I might as well impose a uniform policy. I didn't touch any static symbol names. There might be some places where it'd be appropriate to rename some static functions to match siblings that are exported, but I'll leave that for another time.
* Improve GIN indexscan cost estimation.Tom Lane2010-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The better estimate requires more statistics than we previously stored: in particular, counts of "entry" versus "data" pages within the index, as well as knowledge of the number of distinct key values. We collect this information during initial index build and update it during VACUUM, storing the info in new fields on the index metapage. No initdb is required because these fields will read as zeroes in a pre-existing index, and the new gincostestimate code is coded to behave (reasonably) sanely if they are zeroes.

* Implement "fastupdate" support for GIN indexes, in which we try to accumulateTom Lane2009-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | multiple index entries in a holding area before adding them to the main index structure. This helps because bulk insert is (usually) significantly faster than retail insert for GIN. This patch also removes GIN support for amgettuple-style index scans. The API defined for amgettuple is difficult to support with fastupdate, and the previously committed partial-match feature didn't really work with it either. We might eventually figure a way to put back amgettuple support, but it won't happen for 8.4. catversion bumped because of change in GIN's pg_am entry, and because the format of GIN indexes changed on-disk (there's a metapage now, and possibly a pending list).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM). This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation. Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.

* Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.

* Allow GIN's extractQuery method to signal that nothing can satisfy the query.Teodor Sigaev2007-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In this case extractQuery should returns -1 as nentries. This changes prototype of extractQuery method to use int32* instead of uint32* for nentries argument. Based on that gincostestimate may see two corner cases: nothing will be found or seqscan should be used. Per proposal at http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2007-01/msg01581.php PS tsearch_core patch should be sightly modified to support changes, but I'm waiting a verdict about reviewing of tsearch_core patch.

Put the reloptions support code in a less random place (I chose to make a new file access/common/reloptions.c). Eliminate header inclusion creep. Make the index options functions safely user-callable (seems like client apps might like to be able to test validity of options before trying to make an index). Reduce overhead for normal case with no options by allowing rd_options to be NULL. Fix some unmaintainably klugy code, including getting rid of Natts_pg_class_fixed at long last. Some stylistic cleanup too, and pay attention to keeping comments in sync with code. Documentation still needs work, though I did fix the omissions in catalogs.sgml and indexam.sgml.
