* Implement operator class parametersAlexander Korotkov2020-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PostgreSQL provides set of template index access methods, where opclasses have much freedom in the semantics of indexing. These index AMs are GiST, GIN, SP-GiST and BRIN. There opclasses define representation of keys, operations on them and supported search strategies. So, it's natural that opclasses may be faced some tradeoffs, which require user-side decision. This commit implements opclass parameters allowing users to set some values, which tell opclass how to index the particular dataset. This commit doesn't introduce new storage in system catalog. Instead it uses pg_attribute.attoptions, which is used for table column storage options but unused for index attributes. In order to evade changing signature of each opclass support function, we implement unified way to pass options to opclass support functions. Options are set to fn_expr as the constant bytea expression. It's possible due to the fact that opclass support functions are executed outside of expressions, so fn_expr is unused for them. This commit comes with some examples of opclass options usage. We parametrize signature length in GiST. That applies to multiple opclasses: tsvector_ops, gist__intbig_ops, gist_ltree_ops, gist__ltree_ops, gist_trgm_ops and gist_hstore_ops. Also we parametrize maximum number of integer ranges for gist__int_ops. However, the main future usage of this feature is expected to be json, where users would be able to specify which way to index particular json parts. Catversion is bumped.

* Rename files and headers related to index AMMichael Paquier2019-12-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following renaming is done so as source files related to index access methods are more consistent with table access methods (the original names used for index AMs ware too generic, and could be confused as including features related to table AMs): - amapi.h -> indexam.h. - amapi.c -> indexamapi.c. Here we have an equivalent with backend/access/table/tableamapi.c. - amvalidate.c -> indexamvalidate.c. - amvalidate.h -> indexamvalidate.h. - genam.c -> indexgenam.c. - genam.h -> indexgenam.h. This has been discussed during the development of v12 when table AM was worked on, but the renaming never happened.

* Change TRUE/FALSE to true/falsePeter Eisentraut2017-11-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings. The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so those are left as is when using those APIs. In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>

* Improve index AMs' opclass validation procedures.Tom Lane2016-01-21
The amvalidate functions added in commit 65c5fcd353a859da were on the crude side. Improve them in a few ways: * Perform signature checking for operators and support functions. * Apply more thorough checks for missing operators and functions, where possible. * Instead of reporting problems as ERRORs, report most problems as INFO messages and make the amvalidate function return FALSE. This allows more than one problem to be discovered per run. * Report object names rather than OIDs, and work a bit harder on making the messages understandable. Also, remove a few more opr_sanity regression test queries that are now superseded by the amvalidate checks.
