* Revise TupleTableSlot code to avoid unnecessary construction and disassemblyTom Lane2005-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of tuples when passing data up through multiple plan nodes. A slot can now hold either a normal "physical" HeapTuple, or a "virtual" tuple consisting of Datum/isnull arrays. Upper plan levels can usually just copy the Datum arrays, avoiding heap_formtuple() and possible subsequent nocachegetattr() calls to extract the data again. This work extends Atsushi Ogawa's earlier patch, which provided the key idea of adding Datum arrays to TupleTableSlots. (I believe however that something like this was foreseen way back in Berkeley days --- see the old comment on ExecProject.) A test case involving many levels of join of fairly wide tables (about 80 columns altogether) showed about 3x overall speedup, though simple queries will probably not be helped very much. I have also duplicated some code in heaptuple.c in order to provide versions of heap_formtuple and friends that use "bool" arrays to indicate null attributes, instead of the old convention of "char" arrays containing either 'n' or ' '. This provides a better match to the convention used by ExecEvalExpr. While I have not made a concerted effort to get rid of uses of the old routines, I think they should be deprecated and eventually removed.

* This patch implements holdable cursors, following the proposalBruce Momjian2003-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (materialization into a tuple store) discussed on pgsql-hackers earlier. I've updated the documentation and the regression tests. Notes on the implementation: - I needed to change the tuple store API slightly -- it assumes that it won't be used to hold data across transaction boundaries, so the temp files that it uses for on-disk storage are automatically reclaimed at end-of-transaction. I added a flag to tuplestore_begin_heap() to control this behavior. Is changing the tuple store API in this fashion OK? - in order to store executor results in a tuple store, I added a new CommandDest. This works well for the most part, with one exception: the current DestFunction API doesn't provide enough information to allow the Executor to store results into an arbitrary tuple store (where the particular tuple store to use is chosen by the call site of ExecutorRun). To workaround this, I've temporarily hacked up a solution that works, but is not ideal: since the receiveTuple DestFunction is passed the portal name, we can use that to lookup the Portal data structure for the cursor and then use that to get at the tuple store the Portal is using. This unnecessarily ties the Portal code with the tupleReceiver code, but it works... The proper fix for this is probably to change the DestFunction API -- Tom suggested passing the full QueryDesc to the receiveTuple function. In that case, callers of ExecutorRun could "subclass" QueryDesc to add any additional fields that their particular CommandDest needed to get access to. This approach would work, but I'd like to think about it for a little bit longer before deciding which route to go. In the mean time, the code works fine, so I don't think a fix is urgent. - (semi-related) I added a NO SCROLL keyword to DECLARE CURSOR, and adjusted the behavior of SCROLL in accordance with the discussion on -hackers. - (unrelated) Cleaned up some SGML markup in sql.sgml, copy.sgml Neil Conway
* Revise tuplestore and nodeMaterial so that we don't have to read theTom Lane2003-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | entire contents of the subplan into the tuplestore before we can return any tuples. Instead, the tuplestore holds what we've already read, and we fetch additional rows from the subplan as needed. Random access to the previously-read rows works with the tuplestore, and doesn't affect the state of the partially-read subplan. This is a step towards fixing the problems with cursors over complex queries --- we don't want to stick in Materialize nodes if they'll prevent quick startup for a cursor.
* Revise executor APIs so that all per-query state structure is built inTom Lane2002-12-15
| | | | | | a per-query memory context created by CreateExecutorState --- and destroyed by FreeExecutorState. This provides a final solution to the longstanding problem of memory leaked by various ExecEndNode calls.
* Phase 1 of read-only-plans project: cause executor state nodes to pointTom Lane2002-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | to plan nodes, not vice-versa. All executor state nodes now inherit from struct PlanState. Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links). The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway. No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.

* First stage of reclaiming memory in executor by resetting short-termTom Lane2000-07-12
| | | | | | memory contexts. Currently, only leaks in expressions executed as quals or projections are handled. Clean up some old dead cruft in executor while at it --- unused fields in state nodes, that sort of thing.
* Reimplement nodeMaterial to use a temporary BufFile (or even memory, if theTom Lane2000-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | materialized tupleset is small enough) instead of a temporary relation. This was something I was thinking of doing anyway for performance, and Jan says he needs it for TOAST because he doesn't want to cope with toasting noname relations. With this change, the 'noname table' support in heap.c is dead code, and I have accordingly removed it. Also clean up 'noname' plan handling in planner --- nonames are either sort or materialize plans, and it seems less confusing to handle them separately under those names.

* Several changes here, not very related but touching some of the same files.Tom Lane1999-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22). * Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info, and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex hashtable that was used before). Add databaseOID to PROC structs. * Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of a database containing running backends. (It's a little tricky to prevent a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up its database in pg_database. My solution is to recheck that the DB is OK at the end of InitPostgres. It may not be a 100% solution, but it's a lot better than no interlock at all...) * In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from mdblindwrt(). * Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current sources :-(. You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.
