This commit extends the SortSupport infrastructure to allow operator
classes the option to provide abbreviated representations of Datums;
in the case of text, we abbreviate by taking the first few characters
of the strxfrm() blob. If the abbreviated comparison is insufficent
to resolve the comparison, we fall back on the normal comparator.
This can be much faster than the old way of doing sorting if the
first few bytes of the string are usually sufficient to resolve the
comparison.
There is the potential for a performance regression if all of the
strings to be sorted are identical for the first 8+ characters and
differ only in later positions; therefore, the SortSupport machinery
now provides an infrastructure to abort the use of abbreviation if
it appears that abbreviation is producing comparatively few distinct
keys. HyperLogLog, a streaming cardinality estimator, is included in
this commit and used to make that determination for text.

Backpatch certain files through 9.0

This includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was
applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
Update all files in head, and files COPYRIGHT and legal.sgml in all back
branches.

Failing to do so can cause queries to return wrong data, error out or crash.
This requires adding a new binaryheap_reset() method to binaryheap.c,
but that probably should have been there anyway.
Per bug #8410 from Terje Elde. Diagnosis and patch by Andres Freund.

|

Fully update git head, and update back branches in ./COPYRIGHT and
legal.sgml files.

There are probably other places where this can be used, but for now,
this just makes MergeAppend use it, so that this code will have test
coverage. There is other work in the queue that will use this, as
well.

This patch creates an API whereby a btree index opclass can optionally
provide non-SQL-callable support functions for sorting. In the initial
patch, we only use this to provide a directly-callable comparator function,
which can be invoked with a bit less overhead than the traditional
SQL-callable comparator. While that should be of value in itself, the real
reason for doing this is to provide a datatype-extensible framework for
more aggressive optimizations, as in Peter Geoghegan's recent work.

This lets us stop including rel.h into execnodes.h, which is a widely
used header.

Since collation is effectively an argument, not a property of the function,
FmgrInfo is really the wrong place for it; and this becomes critical in
cases where a cached FmgrInfo is used for varying purposes that might need
different collation settings. Fix by passing it in FunctionCallInfoData
instead. In particular this allows a clean fix for bug #5970 (record_cmp
not working). This requires touching a bit more code than the original
method, but nobody ever thought that collations would not be an invasive
patch...

I found actual bugs in GiST and plpgsql; the rest of this is cosmetic
but meant to decrease the odds of future bugs of omission.

This adds collation support for columns and domains, a COLLATE clause
to override it per expression, and B-tree index support.

This patch eliminates the former need to sort the output of an Append scan
when an ordered scan of an inheritance tree is wanted. This should be
particularly useful for fast-start cases such as queries with LIMIT.

Robert Haas, and Tom Lane.
