* Remove pg_plan_queries()'s now-useless needSnapshot parameter. It's uselessTom Lane2008-12-13
| | | | | in 8.3, too, but I'm not back-patching this change since it would break any extension modules that might be calling that function.
* 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 the parser location infrastructure to include a location field inTom Lane2008-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | most node types used in expression trees (both before and after parse analysis). This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types. Per my proposal of a few days ago.
* Move exprType(), exprTypmod(), expression_tree_walker(), and related routinesTom Lane2008-08-25
| | | | | | into nodes/nodeFuncs, so as to reduce wanton cross-subsystem #includes inside the backend. There's probably more that should be done along this line, but this is a start anyway.
* Add comment about the two different query strings that ExecuteQuery()Tom Lane2008-07-21
| | | | has to deal with.
* Adjust things so that the query_string of a cached plan and the sourceText ofTom Lane2008-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a portal are never NULL, but reliably provide the source text of the query. It turns out that there was only one place that was really taking a short-cut, which was the 'EXECUTE' utility statement. That doesn't seem like a sufficiently critical performance hotspot to justify not offering a guarantee of validity of the portal source text. Fix it to copy the source text over from the cached plan. Add Asserts in the places that set up cached plans and portals to reject null source strings, and simplify a bunch of places that formerly needed to guard against nulls. There may be a few places that cons up statements for execution without having any source text at all; I found one such in ConvertTriggerToFK(). It seems sufficient to inject a phony source string in such a case, for instance ProcessUtility((Node *) atstmt, "(generated ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY command)", NULL, false, None_Receiver, NULL); We should take a second look at the usage of debug_query_string, particularly the recently added current_query() SQL function.

* Improve snapshot manager by keeping explicit track of snapshots.Alvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two ways to track a snapshot: there's the "registered" list, which is used for arbitrary long-lived snapshots; and there's the "active stack", which is used for the snapshot that is considered "active" at any time. This also allows users of snapshots to stop worrying about snapshot memory allocation and freeing, and about using PG_TRY blocks around ActiveSnapshot assignment. This is all done automatically now. As a consequence, this allows us to reset MyProc->xmin when there are no more snapshots registered in the current backend, reducing the impact that long-running transactions have on VACUUM.
* 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.
* Revert my bad decision of about a year ago to make PortalDefineQueryTom Lane2008-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | responsible for copying the query string into the new Portal. Such copying is unnecessary in the common code path through exec_simple_query, and in this case it can be enormously expensive because the string might contain a large number of individual commands; we were copying the entire, long string for each command, resulting in O(N^2) behavior for N commands. (This is the cause of bug #4079.) A second problem with it is that PortalDefineQuery really can't risk error, because if it elog's before having set up the Portal, we will leak the plancache refcount that the caller is trying to hand off to the portal. So go back to the design in which the caller is responsible for making sure everything is copied into the portal if necessary.
* Rename snapmgmt.c/h to snapmgr.c/h, for consistency with other files.Alvaro Herrera2008-03-26
| | | | Per complaint from Tom Lane.
* Separate snapshot management code from tuple visibility code, create aAlvaro Herrera2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | snapmgmt.c file for the former. The header files have also been reorganized in three parts: the most basic snapshot definitions are now in a new file snapshot.h, and the also new snapmgmt.h keeps the definitions for snapmgmt.c. tqual.h has been reduced to the bare minimum. This patch is just a first step towards managing live snapshots within a transaction; there is no functionality change. Per my proposal to pgsql-patches on 20080318191940.GB27458@alvh.no-ip.org and subsequent discussion.
* 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
* Add a new tuplestore API function, tuplestore_putvalues(). This isNeil Conway2008-03-25
| | | | | | | identical to tuplestore_puttuple(), except it operates on arrays of Datums + nulls rather than a fully-formed HeapTuple. In several places that use the tuplestore API, this means we can avoid creating a HeapTuple altogether, saving a copy.

* Ensure that typmod decoration on a datatype name is validated in all cases,Tom Lane2007-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | even in code paths where we don't pay any subsequent attention to the typmod value. This seems needed in view of the fact that 8.3's generalized typmod support will accept a lot of bogus syntax, such as "timestamp(foo)" or "record(int, 42)" --- if we allow such things to pass without comment, users will get confused. Per a recent example from Greg Stark. To implement this in a way that's not very vulnerable to future bugs-of-omission, refactor the API of parse_type.c's TypeName lookup routines so that typmod validation is folded into the base lookup operation. Callers can still choose not to receive the encoded typmod, but we'll check the decoration anyway if it's present.
* Separate parse-analysis for utility commands out of parser/analyze.cTom Lane2007-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (which now deals only in optimizable statements), and put that code into a new file parser/parse_utilcmd.c. This helps clarify and enforce the design rule that utility statements shouldn't be processed during the regular parse analysis phase; all interpretation of their meaning should happen after they are given to ProcessUtility to execute. (We need this because we don't retain any locks for a utility statement that's in a plan cache, nor have any way to detect that it's stale.) We are also able to simplify the API for parse_analyze() and related routines, because they will now always return exactly one Query structure. In passing, fix bug #3403 concerning trying to add a serial column to an existing temp table (this is largely Heikki's work, but we needed all that restructuring to make it safe).
* Create hooks to let a loadable plugin monitor (or even replace) the plannerTom Lane2007-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | and/or create plans for hypothetical situations; in particular, investigate plans that would be generated using hypothetical indexes. This is a heavily-rewritten version of the hooks proposed by Gurjeet Singh for his Index Advisor project. In this formulation, the index advisor can be entirely a loadable module instead of requiring a significant part to be in the core backend, and plans can be generated for hypothetical indexes without requiring the creation and rolling-back of system catalog entries. The index advisor patch as-submitted is not compatible with these hooks, but it needs significant work anyway due to other 8.2-to-8.3 planner changes. With these hooks in the core backend, development of the advisor can proceed as a pgfoundry project.
* Modify processing of DECLARE CURSOR and EXPLAIN so that they can resolve theTom Lane2007-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | types of unspecified parameters when submitted via extended query protocol. This worked in 8.2 but I had broken it during plancache changes. DECLARE CURSOR is now treated almost exactly like a plain SELECT through parse analysis, rewrite, and planning; only just before sending to the executor do we divert it away to ProcessUtility. This requires a special-case check in a number of places, but practically all of them were already special-casing SELECT INTO, so it's not too ugly. (Maybe it would be a good idea to merge the two by treating IntoClause as a form of utility statement? Not going to worry about that now, though.) That approach doesn't work for EXPLAIN, however, so for that I punted and used a klugy solution of running parse analysis an extra time if under extended query protocol.
* Fix dynahash.c to suppress hash bucket splits while a hash_seq_search() scanTom Lane2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | is in progress on the same hashtable. This seems the least invasive way to fix the recently-recognized problem that a split could cause the scan to visit entries twice or (with much lower probability) miss them entirely. The only field-reported problem caused by this is the "failed to re-find shared lock object" PANIC in COMMIT PREPARED reported by Michel Dorochevsky, which was caused by multiply visited entries. However, it seems certain that mdsync() is vulnerable to missing required fsync's due to missed entries, and I am fearful that RelationCacheInitializePhase2() might be at risk as well. Because of that and the generalized hazard presented by this bug, back-patch all the supported branches. Along the way, fix pg_prepared_statement() and pg_cursor() to not assume that the hashtables they are examining will stay static between calls. This is risky regardless of the newly noted dynahash problem, because hash_seq_search() has never promised to cope with deletion of table entries other than the just-returned one. There may be no bug here because the only supported way to call these functions is via ExecMakeTableFunctionResult() which will cycle them to completion before doing anything very interesting, but it seems best to get rid of the assumption. This affects 8.2 and HEAD only, since those functions weren't there earlier.
* Make plancache store cursor options so it can pass them to planner duringTom Lane2007-04-16
| | | | | | a replan. I had originally thought this was not necessary, but the new SPI facilities create a path whereby queries planned with non-default options can get into the cache, so it is necessary.
* Expose more cursor-related functionality in SPI: specifically, allowTom Lane2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | access to the planner's cursor-related planning options, and provide new FETCH/MOVE routines that allow access to the full power of those commands. Small refactoring of planner(), pg_plan_query(), and pg_plan_queries() APIs to make it convenient to pass the planning options down from SPI. This is the core-code portion of Pavel Stehule's patch for scrollable cursor support in plpgsql; I'll review and apply the plpgsql changes separately.
* RESET SESSION, plus related new DDL commands. Patch from Marko Kreen,Neil Conway2007-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | reviewed by Neil Conway. This patch adds the following DDL command variants: RESET SESSION, RESET TEMP, RESET PLANS, CLOSE ALL, and DEALLOCATE ALL. RESET SESSION is intended for use by connection pool software and the like, in order to reset a client session to something close to its initial state. Note that while most of these command variants can be executed inside a transaction block (but are not transaction-aware!), RESET SESSION cannot. While this is inconsistent, it is intended to catch programmer mistakes: RESET SESSION in an open transaction block is probably unintended.
* First phase of plan-invalidation project: create a plan cache managementTom Lane2007-03-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | module and teach PREPARE and protocol-level prepared statements to use it. In service of this, rearrange utility-statement processing so that parse analysis does not assume table schemas can't change before execution for utility statements (necessary because we don't attempt to re-acquire locks for utility statements when reusing a stored plan). This requires some refactoring of the ProcessUtility API, but it ends up cleaner anyway, for instance we can get rid of the QueryContext global. Still to do: fix up SPI and related code to use the plan cache; I'm tempted to try to make SQL functions use it too. Also, there are at least some aspects of system state that we want to ensure remain the same during a replan as in the original processing; search_path certainly ought to behave that way for instance, and perhaps there are others.
* Remove the Query structure from the executor's API. This allows us to stopTom Lane2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | storing mostly-redundant Query trees in prepared statements, portals, etc. To replace Query, a new node type called PlannedStmt is inserted by the planner at the top of a completed plan tree; this carries just the fields of Query that are still needed at runtime. The statement lists kept in portals etc. now consist of intermixed PlannedStmt and bare utility-statement nodes --- no Query. This incidentally allows us to remove some fields from Query and Plan nodes that shouldn't have been there in the first place. Still to do: simplify the execution-time range table; at the moment the range table passed to the executor still contains Query trees for subqueries. initdb forced due to change of stored rules.

* Replace strncpy with strlcpy in selected places that seem possibly relevantTom Lane2006-09-27
| | | | | | | to performance. (A wholesale effort to get rid of strncpy should be undertaken sometime, but not during beta.) This commit also fixes dynahash.c to correctly truncate overlength string keys for hashtables, so that its callers don't have to anymore.
* Clean up logging for extended-query-protocol operations, as per my recentTom Lane2006-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | proposal. Parameter logging works even for binary-format parameters, and logging overhead is avoided when disabled. log_statement = all output for the src/test/examples/testlibpq3.c example now looks like LOG: statement: execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1 DETAIL: parameters: $1 = 'joe''s place' LOG: statement: execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4 DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '2' and log_min_duration_statement = 0 results in LOG: duration: 2.431 ms parse <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1 LOG: duration: 2.335 ms bind <unnamed> to <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1 DETAIL: parameters: $1 = 'joe''s place' LOG: duration: 0.394 ms execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1 DETAIL: parameters: $1 = 'joe''s place' LOG: duration: 1.251 ms parse <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4 LOG: duration: 0.566 ms bind <unnamed> to <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4 DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '2' LOG: duration: 0.173 ms execute <unnamed>: SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE i = $1::int4 DETAIL: parameters: $1 = '2' (This example demonstrates the folly of ignoring parse/bind steps for duration logging purposes, BTW.) Along the way, create a less ad-hoc mechanism for determining which commands are logged by log_statement = mod and log_statement = ddl. The former coding was actually missing quite a few things that look like ddl to me, and it did not handle EXECUTE or extended query protocol correctly at all. This commit does not do anything about the question of whether log_duration should be removed or made less redundant with log_min_duration_statement.
* Change processing of extended-Query mode so that an unnamed statementTom Lane2006-09-06
| | | | | | | | that has parameters is always planned afresh for each Bind command, treating the parameter values as constants in the planner. This removes the performance penalty formerly often paid for using out-of-line parameters --- with this definition, the planner can do constant folding, LIKE optimization, etc. After a suggestion by Andrew@supernews.
* Now bind displays prepare as detail, and execute displays prepare andBruce Momjian2006-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | optionally bind. I re-added the "statement:" label so people will understand why the line is being printed (it is log_*statement behavior). Use single quotes for bind values, instead of double quotes, and double literal single quotes in bind values (and document that). I also made use of the DETAIL line to have much cleaner output.
* Fix oversight in initial implementation of PORTAL_ONE_RETURNING mode: weTom Lane2006-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | cannot assume that there's exactly one Query in the Portal, as we can for ONE_SELECT mode, because non-SELECT queries might have extra queries added during rule rewrites. Fix things up so that we'll use ONE_RETURNING mode when a Portal contains one primary (canSetTag) query and that query has a RETURNING list. This appears to be a second showstopper reason for running the Portal to completion before we start to hand anything back --- we want to be sure that the rule-added queries get run too.

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.

* Remove redundant gettimeofday() calls to the extent practical withoutTom Lane2006-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | | changing semantics too much. statement_timestamp is now set immediately upon receipt of a client command message, and the various places that used to do their own gettimeofday() calls to mark command startup are referenced to that instead. I have also made stats_command_string use that same value for pg_stat_activity.query_start for both the command itself and its eventual replacement by <IDLE> or <idle in transaction>. There was some debate about that, but no argument that seemed convincing enough to justify an extra gettimeofday() call.

* Add a new system view, pg_cursors, that displays the currently availableNeil Conway2006-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cursors. Patch from Joachim Wieland, review and ediorialization by Neil Conway. The view lists cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR, using SPI, or via the Bind message of the frontend/backend protocol. This means the view does not list the unnamed portal or the portal created to implement EXECUTE. Because we do list SPI portals, there might be more rows in this view than you might expect if you are using SPI implicitly (e.g. via a procedural language). Per recent discussion on -hackers, the query string included in the view for cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR is based on debug_query_string. That means it is not accurate if multiple queries separated by semicolons are submitted as one query string. However, there doesn't seem a trivial fix for that: debug_query_string is better than nothing. I also changed SPI_cursor_open() to include the source text for the portal it creates: AFAICS there is no reason not to do this. Update the documentation and regression tests, bump the catversion.
* Change the parameter_types column of the pg_prepared_statements to beNeil Conway2006-01-16
| | | | | | | | an array of regtype, rather than an array of OIDs. This is likely to be more useful to user, and the type OID can easily be obtained by casting a regtype value to OID. Per suggestion from Tom. Update the documentation and regression tests, and bump the catversion.
* Add a new system view, pg_prepared_statements, that can be used toNeil Conway2006-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | access information about the prepared statements that are available in the current session. Original patch from Joachim Wieland, various improvements by Neil Conway. The "statement" column of the view contains the literal query string sent by the client, without any rewriting or pretty printing. This means that prepared statements created via SQL will be prefixed with "PREPARE ... AS ", whereas those prepared via the FE/BE protocol will not. That is unfortunate, but discussion on -patches did not yield an efficient way to improve this, and there is some merit in returning exactly what the client sent to the backend. Catalog version bumped, regression tests updated.
