* Code cleanup of user name and user id handling in the backend. The currentPeter Eisentraut2000-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | user is now defined in terms of the user id, the user name is only computed upon request (for display purposes). This is kind of the opposite of the previous state, which would maintain the user name and compute the user id for permission checks. Besides perhaps saving a few cycles (integer vs string), this now creates a single point of attack for changing the user id during a connection, for purposes of "setuid" functions, etc.
* Make functional indexes accept binary-compatible functions, for exampleTom Lane2000-08-20
| | | | CREATE INDEX fooi ON foo (lower(f1)) where f1 is varchar rather than text.
* More functions updated to new fmgr style --- money, name, tid datatypes.Tom Lane2000-08-03
| | | | | We're reaching the mopup stage here (good thing too, this is getting tedious).
* Cleanup of code for creating index entries. Functional indexes withTom Lane2000-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | pass-by-ref data types --- eg, an index on lower(textfield) --- no longer leak memory during index creation or update. Clean up a lot of redundant code ... did you know that copy, vacuum, truncate, reindex, extend index, and bootstrap each basically duplicated the main executor's logic for extracting information about an index and preparing index entries? Functional indexes should be a little faster now too, due to removal of repeated function lookups. CREATE INDEX 'opt_type' clause is deimplemented by these changes, but I haven't removed it from the parser yet (need to merge with Thomas' latest change set first).
* Update textin() and textout() to new fmgr style. This is just phaseTom Lane2000-07-05
| | | | | one of updating the whole text datatype, but there are so dang many calls of these two routines that it seems worth a separate commit.
* Make toast-table creation and deletion work somewhat reliably.Tom Lane2000-07-04
| | | | | | | Don't go through pg_exec_query_dest(), but directly to the execution routines. Also, extend parameter lists so that there's no need to change the global setting of allowSystemTableMods, a hack that was certain to cause trouble in the event of any error.
* First phase of memory management rewrite (see backend/utils/mmgr/READMETom Lane2000-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | for details). It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably. A few long- standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single query string crashing. Also, out-of-memory is now considered a recoverable ERROR, not FATAL. Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around memory management. Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and backend startup.
* Get rid of IndexIsUniqueNoCache() kluge by the simple expedient ofTom Lane2000-06-17
| | | | | | | passing the index-is-unique flag to index build routines (duh! ... why wasn't it done this way to begin with?). Aside from eliminating an eyesore, this should save a few milliseconds in btree index creation because a full scan of pg_index is not needed any more.
* Fix performance problems with pg_index lookups (see, for example,Tom Lane2000-06-17
| | | | | | | | | | discussion of 5/19/00). pg_index is now searched for indexes of a relation using an indexscan. Moreover, this is done once and cached in the relcache entry for the relation, in the form of a list of OIDs for the indexes. This list is used by the parser and executor to drive lookups in the pg_index syscache when they want to know the properties of the indexes. Net result: index information will be fully cached for repetitive operations such as inserts.

* First round of changes for new fmgr interface. fmgr itself and theTom Lane2000-05-28
| | | | | | | key call sites are changed, but most called functions are still oldstyle. An exception is that the PL managers are updated (so, for example, NULL handling now behaves as expected in plperl and plpgsql functions). NOTE initdb is forced due to added column in pg_proc.

* Allow CREATE FUNCTION's WITH clause to be used for all language types,Tom Lane1999-10-02
| | | | | | | not just C, so that ISCACHABLE attribute can be specified for user-defined functions. Get rid of ParamString node type, which wasn't actually being generated by gram.y anymore, even though define.c thought that was what it was getting. Clean up minor bug in dfmgr.c (premature heap_close).
* Mega-commit to make heap_open/heap_openr/heap_close take anTom Lane1999-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or 'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi. Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the Relation struct layout slightly. Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.
* Further planner/optimizer cleanups. Move all set_tlist_referencesTom Lane1999-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | and fix_opids processing to a single recursive pass over the plan tree executed at the very tail end of planning, rather than haphazardly here and there at different places. Now that tlist Vars do not get modified until the very end, it's possible to get rid of the klugy var_equal and match_varid partial-matching routines, and just use plain equal() throughout the optimizer. This is a step towards allowing merge and hash joins to be done on expressions instead of only Vars ...
