* Restructure smgr API as per recent proposal. smgr no longer depends onTom Lane2004-02-10
| | | | | | | | | the relcache, and so the notion of 'blind write' is gone. This should improve efficiency in bgwriter and background checkpoint processes. Internal restructuring in md.c to remove the not-very-useful array of MdfdVec objects --- might as well just use pointers. Also remove the long-dead 'persistent main memory' storage manager (mm.c), since it seems quite unlikely to ever get resurrected.
* Review uses of IsUnderPostmaster, change some tests to look atTom Lane2004-01-28
| | | | | | | whereToSendOutput instead because they are really inquiring about the correct client communication protocol. Update some comments. This is pointing towards supporting regular FE/BE client protocol in a standalone backend, per discussion a month or so back.
* Fix a minor bug introduced by the recent CREATE TABLE AS / WITH OIDSNeil Conway2004-01-23
| | | | | | patch: a 3-value enum was mistakenly assigned directly to a 'bool' in transformCreateStmt(). Along the way, change makeObjectName() to be static, as it isn't used outside analyze.c
* Implement "WITH / WITHOID OIDS" clause for CREATE TABLE AS. This isNeil Conway2004-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | intended to allow application authors to insulate themselves from changes to the default value of 'default_with_oids' in future releases of PostgreSQL. This patch also fixes a bug in the earlier implementation of the 'default_with_oids' GUC variable: code in gram.y should not examine the value of GUC variables directly due to synchronization issues.

* Cross-data-type comparisons are now indexable by btrees, pursuant to myTom Lane2003-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support. The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event; it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.
* Add operator strategy and comparison-value datatype fields to ScanKey.Tom Lane2003-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | Remove the 'strategy map' code, which was a large amount of mechanism that no longer had any use except reverse-mapping from procedure OID to strategy number. Passing the strategy number to the index AM in the first place is simpler and faster. This is a preliminary step in planned support for cross-datatype index operations. I'm committing it now since the ScanKeyEntryInitialize() API change touches quite a lot of files, and I want to commit those changes before the tree drifts under me.
* Back out makeNode() patch to fix gcc 3.3.1 warning.Bruce Momjian2003-10-13

* Adjust setRelhassubclassInRelation() to not perform actual heap_updateTom Lane2003-10-13
| | | | | | | | | when the pg_class.relhassubclass value is already correct. This should avoid most cases of the 'tuple concurrently updated' problem that Robert Creager recently complained about. Also remove a bunch of dead code in StoreCatalogInheritance() --- it was still computing the complete list of direct and indirect inheritance ancestors, though that list has not been needed since we got rid of the pg_ipl catalog.
* Use makeNode() to allocate structures that have to be cast to Node *,Bruce Momjian2003-10-12
| | | | | | rather than allocating them on the stack. Fixes complaint from gcc 3.3.1.

* Message editing: remove gratuitous variations in message wording, standardizePeter Eisentraut2003-09-25
| | | | | terms, add some clarifications, fix some untranslatable attempts at dynamic message building.
* Disallow foreign-key references from temp tables to permanent tables.Tom Lane2003-09-19
| | | | | | | | | Per recent discussion, this does not work because other backends can't reliably see tuples in a temp table and so cannot run the RI checks correctly. Seems better to disallow this case than go back to accessing temp tables through shared buffers. Also, disallow FK references to ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS tables. We already caught this problem for normal TRUNCATE, but the path used by ON COMMIT didn't check.

* Implement outer-level aggregates to conform to the SQL spec, withTom Lane2003-06-06
| | | | | | | | extensions to support our historical behavior. An aggregate belongs to the closest query level of any of the variables in its argument, or the current query level if there are no variables (e.g., COUNT(*)). The implementation involves adding an agglevelsup field to Aggref, and treating outer aggregates like outer variables at planning time.
* Replace functional-index facility with expressional indexes. Any columnTom Lane2003-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | of an index can now be a computed expression instead of a simple variable. Restrictions on expressions are the same as for predicates (only immutable functions, no sub-selects). This fixes problems recently introduced with inlining SQL functions, because the inlining transformation is applied to both expression trees so the planner can still match them up. Along the way, improve efficiency of handling index predicates (both predicates and index expressions are now cached by the relcache) and fix 7.3 oversight that didn't record dependencies of predicate expressions.
* Infrastructure for deducing Param types from context, in the same wayTom Lane2003-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | that the types of untyped string-literal constants are deduced (ie, when coerce_type is applied to 'em, that's what the type must be). Remove the ancient hack of storing the input Param-types array as a global variable, and put the info into ParseState instead. This touches a lot of files because of adjustment of routine parameter lists, but it's really not a large patch. Note: PREPARE statement still insists on exact specification of parameter types, but that could easily be relaxed now, if we wanted to do so.

* Create a distinction between Lists of integers and Lists of OIDs, to getTom Lane2003-02-09
| | | | | | rid of the assumption that sizeof(Oid)==sizeof(int). This is one small step towards someday supporting 8-byte OIDs. For the moment, it doesn't do much except get rid of a lot of unsightly casts.

* Fix ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN to disallow the same column types that areTom Lane2002-12-16
| | | | | | | | disallowed by CREATE TABLE (eg, pseudo-types); also disallow these types from being introduced by the range-function syntax. While at it, allow CREATE TABLE to create zero-column tables, per recent pghackers discussion. I am back-patching this into 7.3 since failure to disallow pseudo-types is arguably a security hole.
* Revise executor APIs so that all per-query state structure is built inTom Lane2002-12-15

* Phase 3 of read-only-plans project: ExecInitExpr now builds expressionTom Lane2002-12-13
| | | | | | | execution state trees, and ExecEvalExpr takes an expression state tree not an expression plan tree. The plan tree is now read-only as far as the executor is concerned. Next step is to begin actually exploiting this property.
* Preliminary code review for domain CHECK constraints patch: add documentation,Tom Lane2002-12-12
| | | | | | | | make VALUE a non-reserved word again, use less invasive method of passing ConstraintTestValue into transformExpr, fix problems with nested constraint testing, do correct thing with NULL result from a constraint expression, remove memory leak. Domain checks still need much more work if we are going to allow ALTER DOMAIN, however.
* Phase 2 of read-only-plans project: restructure expression-tree nodesTom Lane2002-12-12
| | | | | | | | | so that all executable expression nodes inherit from a common supertype Expr. This is somewhat of an exercise in code purity rather than any real functional advance, but getting rid of the extra Oper or Func node formerly used in each operator or function call should provide at least a little space and speed improvement. initdb forced by changes in stored-rules representation.

* This patch implements FOR EACH STATEMENT triggers, per my email toBruce Momjian2002-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | -hackers a couple days ago. Notes/caveats: - added regression tests for the new functionality, all regression tests pass on my machine - added pg_dump support - updated PL/PgSQL to support per-statement triggers; didn't look at the other procedural languages. - there's (even) more code duplication in trigger.c than there was previously. Any suggestions on how to refactor the ExecXXXTriggers() functions to reuse more code would be welcome -- I took a brief look at it, but couldn't see an easy way to do it (there are several subtly-different versions of the code in question) - updated the documentation. I also took the liberty of removing a big chunk of duplicated syntax documentation in the Programmer's Guide on triggers, and moving that information to the CREATE TRIGGER reference page. - I also included some spelling fixes and similar small cleanups I noticed while making the changes. If you'd like me to split those into a separate patch, let me know. Neil Conway

| | | | | | | | | before commit, not after :-( --- the original coding is not only unsafe if an error occurs while it's processing, but it generates an invalid sequence of WAL entries. Resurrect 7.2 logic for deleting items when no longer needed. Use an enum instead of random macros. Editorialize on names used for routines and constants. Teach backend/nodes routines about new field in CreateTable struct. Add a regression test.
