* Fix problems with ParamListInfo serialization mechanism.Robert Haas2015-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit d1b7c1ffe72e86932b5395f29e006c3f503bc53d introduced a mechanism for serializing a ParamListInfo structure to be passed to a parallel worker. However, this mechanism failed to handle external expanded values, as pointed out by Noah Misch. Repair. Moreover, plpgsql_param_fetch requires adjustment because the serialization mechanism needs it to skip evaluating unused parameters just as we would do when it is called from copyParamList, but params == estate->paramLI in that case. To fix, make the bms_is_member test in that function unconditional. Finally, have setup_param_list set a new ParamListInfo field, paramMask, to the parameters actually used in the expression, so that we don't try to fetch those that are not needed when serializing a parameter list. This isn't necessary for correctness, but it makes the performance of the parallel executor code comparable to what we do for cases involving cursors. Design suggestions and extensive review by Noah Misch. Patch by me.
* Avoid O(N^2) behavior when enlarging SPI tuple table in spi_printtup().Tom Lane2015-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | For no obvious reason, spi_printtup() was coded to enlarge the tuple pointer table by just 256 slots at a time, rather than doubling the size at each reallocation, as is our usual habit. For very large SPI results, this makes for O(N^2) time spent in repalloc(), which of course soon comes to dominate the runtime. Use the standard doubling approach instead. This is a longstanding performance bug, so back-patch to all active branches. Neil Conway

* Support "expanded" objects, particularly arrays, for better performance.Tom Lane2015-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces the ability for complex datatypes to have an in-memory representation that is different from their on-disk format. On-disk formats are typically optimized for minimal size, and in any case they can't contain pointers, so they are often not well-suited for computation. Now a datatype can invent an "expanded" in-memory format that is better suited for its operations, and then pass that around among the C functions that operate on the datatype. There are also provisions (rudimentary as yet) to allow an expanded object to be modified in-place under suitable conditions, so that operations like assignment to an element of an array need not involve copying the entire array. The initial application for this feature is arrays, but it is not hard to foresee using it for other container types like JSON, XML and hstore. I have hopes that it will be useful to PostGIS as well. In this initial implementation, a few heuristics have been hard-wired into plpgsql to improve performance for arrays that are stored in plpgsql variables. We would like to generalize those hacks so that other datatypes can obtain similar improvements, but figuring out some appropriate APIs is left as a task for future work. (The heuristics themselves are probably not optimal yet, either, as they sometimes force expansion of arrays that would be better left alone.) Preliminary performance testing shows impressive speed gains for plpgsql functions that do element-by-element access or update of large arrays. There are other cases that get a little slower, as a result of added array format conversions; but we can hope to improve anything that's annoyingly bad. In any case most applications should see a net win. Tom Lane, reviewed by Andres Freund
* Create an infrastructure for parallel computation in PostgreSQL.Robert Haas2015-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This does four basic things. First, it provides convenience routines to coordinate the startup and shutdown of parallel workers. Second, it synchronizes various pieces of state (e.g. GUCs, combo CID mappings, transaction snapshot) from the parallel group leader to the worker processes. Third, it prohibits various operations that would result in unsafe changes to that state while parallelism is active. Finally, it propagates events that would result in an ErrorResponse, NoticeResponse, or NotifyResponse message being sent to the client from the parallel workers back to the master, from which they can then be sent on to the client.

* Use FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER in a bunch more places.Tom Lane2015-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace some bogus "x[1]" declarations with "x[FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER]". Aside from being more self-documenting, this should help prevent bogus warnings from static code analyzers and perhaps compiler misoptimizations. This patch is just a down payment on eliminating the whole problem, but it gets rid of a lot of easy-to-fix cases. Note that the main problem with doing this is that one must no longer rely on computing sizeof(the containing struct), since the result would be compiler-dependent. Instead use offsetof(struct, lastfield). Autoconf also warns against spelling that offsetof(struct, lastfield[0]). Michael Paquier, review and additional fixes by me.

* Explicitly support the case that a plancache's raw_parse_tree is NULL.Tom Lane2014-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This only happens if a client issues a Parse message with an empty query string, which is a bit odd; but since it is explicitly called out as legal by our FE/BE protocol spec, we'd probably better continue to allow it. Fix by adding tests everywhere that the raw_parse_tree field is passed to functions that don't or shouldn't accept NULL. Also make it clear in the relevant comments that NULL is an expected case. This reverts commits a73c9dbab0165b3395dfe8a44a7dfd16166963c4 and 2e9650cbcff8c8fb0d9ef807c73a44f241822eee, which fixed specific crash symptoms by hacking things at what now seems to be the wrong end, ie the callee functions. Making the callees allow NULL is superficially more robust, but it's not always true that there is a defensible thing for the callee to do in such cases. The caller has more context and is better able to decide what the empty-query case ought to do. Per followup discussion of bug #11335. Back-patch to 9.2. The code before that is sufficiently different that it would require development of a separate patch, which doesn't seem worthwhile for what is believed to be an essentially cosmetic change.

* Fix failure to detoast fields in composite elements of structured types.Tom Lane2014-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we have an array of records stored on disk, the individual record fields cannot contain out-of-line TOAST pointers: the tuptoaster.c mechanisms are only prepared to deal with TOAST pointers appearing in top-level fields of a stored row. The same applies for ranges over composite types, nested composites, etc. However, the existing code only took care of expanding sub-field TOAST pointers for the case of nested composites, not for other structured types containing composites. For example, given a command such as UPDATE tab SET arraycol = ARRAY[(ROW(x,42)::mycompositetype] ... where x is a direct reference to a field of an on-disk tuple, if that field is long enough to be toasted out-of-line then the TOAST pointer would be inserted as-is into the array column. If the source record for x is later deleted, the array field value would become a dangling pointer, leading to errors along the line of "missing chunk number 0 for toast value ..." when the value is referenced. A reproducible test case for this was provided by Jan Pecek, but it seems likely that some of the "missing chunk number" reports we've heard in the past were caused by similar issues. Code-wise, the problem is that PG_DETOAST_DATUM() is not adequate to produce a self-contained Datum value if the Datum is of composite type. Seen in this light, the problem is not just confined to arrays and ranges, but could also affect some other places where detoasting is done in that way, for example form_index_tuple(). I tried teaching the array code to apply toast_flatten_tuple_attribute() along with PG_DETOAST_DATUM() when the array element type is composite, but this was messy and imposed extra cache lookup costs whether or not any TOAST pointers were present, indeed sometimes when the array element type isn't even composite (since sometimes it takes a typcache lookup to find that out). The idea of extending that approach to all the places that currently use PG_DETOAST_DATUM() wasn't attractive at all. This patch instead solves the problem by decreeing that composite Datum values must not contain any out-of-line TOAST pointers in the first place; that is, we expand out-of-line fields at the point of constructing a composite Datum, not at the point where we're about to insert it into a larger tuple. This rule is applied only to true composite Datums, not to tuples that are being passed around the system as tuples, so it's not as invasive as it might sound at first. With this approach, the amount of code that has to be touched for a full solution is greatly reduced, and added cache lookup costs are avoided except when there actually is a TOAST pointer that needs to be inlined. The main drawback of this approach is that we might sometimes dereference a TOAST pointer that will never actually be used by the query, imposing a rather large cost that wasn't there before. On the other side of the coin, if the field value is used multiple times then we'll come out ahead by avoiding repeat detoastings. Experimentation suggests that common SQL coding patterns are unaffected either way, though. Applications that are very negatively affected could be advised to modify their code to not fetch columns they won't be using. In future, we might consider reverting this solution in favor of detoasting only at the point where data is about to be stored to disk, using some method that can drill down into multiple levels of nested structured types. That will require defining new APIs for structured types, though, so it doesn't seem feasible as a back-patchable fix. Note that this patch changes HeapTupleGetDatum() from a macro to a function call; this means that any third-party code using that macro will not get protection against creating TOAST-pointer-containing Datums until it's recompiled. The same applies to any uses of PG_RETURN_HEAPTUPLEHEADER(). It seems likely that this is not a big problem in practice: most of the tuple-returning functions in core and contrib produce outputs that could not possibly be toasted anyway, and the same probably holds for third-party extensions. This bug has existed since TOAST was invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Prevent memory leaks from accumulating across printtup() calls.Tom Lane2013-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically, printtup() has assumed that it could prevent memory leakage by pfree'ing the string result of each output function and manually managing detoasting of toasted values. This amounts to assuming that datatype output functions never leak any memory internally; an assumption we've already decided to be bogus elsewhere, for example in COPY OUT. range_out in particular is known to leak multiple kilobytes per call, as noted in bug #8573 from Godfried Vanluffelen. While we could go in and fix that leak, it wouldn't be very notationally convenient, and in any case there have been and undoubtedly will again be other leaks in other output functions. So what seems like the best solution is to run the output functions in a temporary memory context that can be reset after each row, as we're doing in COPY OUT. Some quick experimentation suggests this is actually a tad faster than the retail pfree's anyway. This patch fixes all the variants of printtup, except for debugtup() which is used in standalone mode. It doesn't seem worth worrying about query-lifespan leaks in standalone mode, and fixing that case would be a bit tedious since debugtup() doesn't currently have any startup or shutdown functions. While at it, remove manual detoast management from several other output-function call sites that had copied it from printtup(). This doesn't make a lot of difference right now, but in view of recent discussions about supporting "non-flattened" Datums, we're going to want that code gone eventually anyway. Back-patch to 9.2 where range_out was introduced. We might eventually decide to back-patch this further, but in the absence of known major leaks in older output functions, I'll refrain for now.
* Prevent leakage of SPI tuple tables during subtransaction abort.Tom Lane2013-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | plpgsql often just remembers SPI-result tuple tables in local variables, and has no mechanism for freeing them if an ereport(ERROR) causes an escape out of the execution function whose local variable it is. In the original coding, that wasn't a problem because the tuple table would be cleaned up when the function's SPI context went away during transaction abort. However, once plpgsql grew the ability to trap exceptions, repeated trapping of errors within a function could result in significant intra-function-call memory leakage, as illustrated in bug #8279 from Chad Wagner. We could fix this locally in plpgsql with a bunch of PG_TRY/PG_CATCH coding, but that would be tedious, probably slow, and prone to bugs of omission; moreover it would do nothing for similar risks elsewhere. What seems like a better plan is to make SPI itself responsible for freeing tuple tables at subtransaction abort. This patch attacks the problem that way, keeping a list of live tuple tables within each SPI function context. Currently, such freeing is automatic for tuple tables made within the failed subtransaction. We might later add a SPI call to mark a tuple table as not to be freed this way, allowing callers to opt out; but until someone exhibits a clear use-case for such behavior, it doesn't seem worth bothering. A very useful side-effect of this change is that SPI_freetuptable() can now defend itself against bad calls, such as duplicate free requests; this should make things more robust in many places. (In particular, this reduces the risks involved if a third-party extension contains now-redundant SPI_freetuptable() calls in error cleanup code.) Even though the leakage problem is of long standing, it seems imprudent to back-patch this into stable branches, since it does represent an API semantics change for SPI users. We'll patch this in 9.3, but live with the leakage in older branches.

* Fix assertion failure for REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW in PL.Kevin Grittner2013-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | This was due to incomplete implementation of rowcount reporting for RMV, which was due to initial waffling on whether it should be provided. It seems unlikely to be a useful or universally available number as more sophisticated techniques for maintaining matviews are added, so remove the partial support rather than completing it.

* Add a materialized view relations.Kevin Grittner2013-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A materialized view has a rule just like a view and a heap and other physical properties like a table. The rule is only used to populate the table, references in queries refer to the materialized data. This is a minimal implementation, but should still be useful in many cases. Currently data is only populated "on demand" by the CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW and REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW statements. It is expected that future releases will add incremental updates with various timings, and that a more refined concept of defining what is "fresh" data will be developed. At some point it may even be possible to have queries use a materialized in place of references to underlying tables, but that requires the other above-mentioned features to be working first. Much of the documentation work by Robert Haas. Review by Noah Misch, Thom Brown, Robert Haas, Marko Tiikkaja Security review by KaiGai Kohei, with a decision on how best to implement sepgsql still pending.
* Fix plpgsql's reporting of plan-time errors in possibly-simple expressions.Tom Lane2013-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | exec_simple_check_plan and exec_eval_simple_expr attempted to call GetCachedPlan directly. This meant that if an error was thrown during planning, the resulting context traceback would not include the line normally contributed by _SPI_error_callback. This is already inconsistent, but just to be really odd, a re-execution of the very same expression *would* show the additional context line, because we'd already have cached the plan and marked the expression as non-simple. The problem is easy to demonstrate in 9.2 and HEAD because planning of a cached plan doesn't occur at all until GetCachedPlan is done. In earlier versions, it could only be an issue if initial planning had succeeded, then a replan was forced (already somewhat improbable for a simple expression), and the replan attempt failed. Since the issue is mainly cosmetic in older branches anyway, it doesn't seem worth the risk of trying to fix it there. It is worth fixing in 9.2 since the instability of the context printout can affect the results of GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS, as per a recent discussion on pgsql-novice. To fix, introduce a SPI function that wraps GetCachedPlan while installing the correct callback function. Use this instead of calling GetCachedPlan directly from plpgsql. Also introduce a wrapper function for extracting a SPI plan's CachedPlanSource list. This lets us stop including spi_priv.h in pl_exec.c, which was never a very good idea from a modularity standpoint. In passing, fix a similar inconsistency that could occur in SPI_cursor_open, which was also calling GetCachedPlan without setting up a context callback.
* Invent a "one-shot" variant of CachedPlans for better performance.Tom Lane2013-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SPI_execute() and related functions create a CachedPlan, execute it once, and immediately discard it, so that the functionality offered by plancache.c is of no value in this code path. And performance measurements show that the extra data copying and invalidation checking done by plancache.c slows down simple queries by 10% or more compared to 9.1. However, enough of the SPI code is shared with functions that do need plan caching that it seems impractical to bypass plancache.c altogether. Instead, let's invent a variant version of cached plans that preserves 99% of the API but doesn't offer any of the actual functionality, nor the overhead. This puts SPI_execute() performance back on par, or maybe even slightly better, than it was before. This change should resolve recent complaints of performance degradation from Dong Ye, Pavel Stehule, and others. By avoiding data copying, this change also reduces the amount of memory needed to execute many-statement SPI_execute() strings, as for instance in a recent complaint from Tomas Vondra. An additional benefit of this change is that multi-statement SPI_execute() query strings are now processed fully serially, that is we complete execution of earlier statements before running parse analysis and planning on following ones. This eliminates a long-standing POLA violation, in that DDL that affects the behavior of a later statement will now behave as expected. Back-patch to 9.2, since this was a performance regression compared to 9.1. (In 9.2, place the added struct fields so as to avoid changing the offsets of existing fields.)

* Revert patch for taking fewer snapshots.Tom Lane2012-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit d573e239f03506920938bf0be56c868d9c3416da, "Take fewer snapshots". While that seemed like a good idea at the time, it caused execution to use a snapshot that had been acquired before locking any of the tables mentioned in the query. This created user-visible anomalies that were not present in any prior release of Postgres, as reported by Tomas Vondra. While this whole area could do with a redesign (since there are related cases that have anomalies anyway), it doesn't seem likely that any future patch would be reasonably back-patchable; and we don't want 9.2 to exhibit a behavior that's subtly unlike either past or future releases. Hence, revert to prior code while we rethink the problem.

* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.
* Make new event trigger facility actually do something.Robert Haas2012-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3855968f328918b6cd1401dd11d109d471a54d40 added syntax, pg_dump, psql support, and documentation, but the triggers didn't actually fire. With this commit, they now do. This is still a pretty basic facility overall because event triggers do not get a whole lot of information about what the user is trying to do unless you write them in C; and there's still no option to fire them anywhere except at the very beginning of the execution sequence, but it's better than nothing, and a good building block for future work. Along the way, add a regression test for ALTER LARGE OBJECT, since testing of event triggers reveals that we haven't got one. Dimitri Fontaine and Robert Haas

* Restructure SELECT INTO's parsetree representation into CreateTableAsStmt.Tom Lane2012-03-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Making this operation look like a utility statement seems generally a good idea, and particularly so in light of the desire to provide command triggers for utility statements. The original choice of representing it as SELECT with an IntoClause appendage had metastasized into rather a lot of places, unfortunately, so that this patch is a great deal more complicated than one might at first expect. In particular, keeping EXPLAIN working for SELECT INTO and CREATE TABLE AS subcommands required restructuring some EXPLAIN-related APIs. Add-on code that calls ExplainOnePlan or ExplainOneUtility, or uses ExplainOneQuery_hook, will need adjustment. Also, the cases PREPARE ... SELECT INTO and CREATE RULE ... SELECT INTO, which formerly were accepted though undocumented, are no longer accepted. The PREPARE case can be replaced with use of CREATE TABLE AS EXECUTE. The CREATE RULE case doesn't seem to have much real-world use (since the rule would work only once before failing with "table already exists"), so we'll not bother with that one. Both SELECT INTO and CREATE TABLE AS still return a command tag of "SELECT nnnn". There was some discussion of returning "CREATE TABLE nnnn", but for the moment backwards compatibility wins the day.

* Take fewer snapshots.Robert Haas2011-12-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a PORTAL_ONE_SELECT query is executed, we can opportunistically reuse the parse/plan shot for the execution phase. This cuts down the number of snapshots per simple query from 2 to 1 for the simple protocol, and 3 to 2 for the extended protocol. Since we are only reusing a snapshot taken early in the processing of the same protocol message, the change shouldn't be user-visible, except that the remote possibility of the planning and execution snapshots being different is eliminated. Note that this change does not make it safe to assume that the parse/plan snapshot will certainly be reused; that will currently only happen if PortalStart() decides to use the PORTAL_ONE_SELECT strategy. It might be worth trying to provide some stronger guarantees here in the future, but for now we don't. Patch by me; review by Dimitri Fontaine.
* Redesign the plancache mechanism for more flexibility and efficiency.Tom Lane2011-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rewrite plancache.c so that a "cached plan" (which is rather a misnomer at this point) can support generation of custom, parameter-value-dependent plans, and can make an intelligent choice between using custom plans and the traditional generic-plan approach. The specific choice algorithm implemented here can probably be improved in future, but this commit is all about getting the mechanism in place, not the policy. In addition, restructure the API to greatly reduce the amount of extraneous data copying needed. The main compromise needed to make that possible was to split the initial creation of a CachedPlanSource into two steps. It's worth noting in particular that SPI_saveplan is now deprecated in favor of SPI_keepplan, which accomplishes the same end result with zero data copying, and no need to then spend even more cycles throwing away the original SPIPlan. The risk of long-term memory leaks while manipulating SPIPlans has also been greatly reduced. Most of this improvement is based on use of the recently-added MemoryContextSetParent primitive.

* Rearrange snapshot handling to make rule expansion more consistent.Tom Lane2011-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch, portals, SQL functions, and SPI all agree that there should be only a CommandCounterIncrement between the queries that are generated from a single SQL command by rule expansion. Fetching a whole new snapshot now happens only between original queries. This is equivalent to the existing behavior of EXPLAIN ANALYZE, and it was judged to be the best choice since it eliminates one source of concurrency hazards for rules. The patch should also make things marginally faster by reducing the number of snapshot push/pop operations. The patch removes pg_parse_and_rewrite(), which is no longer used anywhere. There was considerable discussion about more aggressive refactoring of the query-processing functions exported by postgres.c, but for the moment nothing more has been done there. I also took the opportunity to refactor snapmgr.c's API slightly: the former PushUpdatedSnapshot() has been split into two functions. Marko Tiikkaja, reviewed by Steve Singer and Tom Lane
* Refactor the executor's API to support data-modifying CTEs better.Tom Lane2011-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The originally committed patch for modifying CTEs didn't interact well with EXPLAIN, as noted by myself, and also had corner-case problems with triggers, as noted by Dean Rasheed. Those problems show it is really not practical for ExecutorEnd to call any user-defined code; so split the cleanup duties out into a new function ExecutorFinish, which must be called between the last ExecutorRun call and ExecutorEnd. Some Asserts have been added to these functions to help verify correct usage. It is no longer necessary for callers of the executor to call AfterTriggerBeginQuery/AfterTriggerEndQuery for themselves, as this is now done by ExecutorStart/ExecutorFinish respectively. If you really need to suppress that and do it for yourself, pass EXEC_FLAG_SKIP_TRIGGERS to ExecutorStart. Also, refactor portal commit processing to allow for the possibility that PortalDrop will invoke user-defined code. I think this is not actually necessary just yet, since the portal-execution-strategy logic forces any non-pure-SELECT query to be run to completion before we will consider committing. But it seems like good future-proofing.

* Add support for invoking parser callback hooks via SPI and in cached plans.Tom Lane2009-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | As proof of concept, modify plpgsql to use the hooks. plpgsql is still inserting $n symbols textually, but the "back end" of the parsing process now goes through the ParamRef hook instead of using a fixed parameter-type array, and then execution only fetches actually-referenced parameters, using a hook added to ParamListInfo. Although there's a lot left to be done in plpgsql, this already cures the "if (TG_OP = 'INSERT' and NEW.foo ...)" problem, as illustrated by the changed regression test.

| | | | | | | | | | They are now handled by a new plan node type called ModifyTable, which is placed at the top of the plan tree. In itself this change doesn't do much, except perhaps make the handling of RETURNING lists and inherited UPDATEs a tad less klugy. But it is necessary preparation for the intended extension of allowing RETURNING queries inside WITH. Marko Tiikkaja
* Ensure that a cursor has an immutable snapshot throughout its lifespan.Alvaro Herrera2009-10-02
| | | | | | | | | The old coding was using a regular snapshot, referenced elsewhere, that was subject to having its command counter updated. Fix by creating a private copy of the snapshot exclusively for the cursor. Backpatch to 8.4, which is when the bug was introduced during the snapshot management rewrite.

* Add new SPI_OK_REWRITTEN return code to SPI_execute and friends, for theHeikki Linnakangas2009-01-21
| | | | | | | case that the command is rewritten into another type of command. The old behavior to return the command tag of the last executed command was pretty surprising. In PL/pgSQL, for example, it meant that if a command was rewritten to a utility statement, FOUND wasn't set at all.
* Insert conditional SPI_push/SPI_pop calls into InputFunctionCall,Tom Lane2009-01-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OutputFunctionCall, and friends. This allows SPI-using functions to invoke datatype I/O without concern for the possibility that a SPI-using function will be called (which could be either the I/O function itself, or a function used in a domain check constraint). It's a tad ugly, but not nearly as ugly as what'd be needed to make this work via retail insertion of push/pop operations in all the PLs. This reverts my patch of 2007-01-30 that inserted some retail SPI_push/pop calls into plpgsql; that approach only fixed plpgsql, and not any other PLs. But the other PLs have the issue too, as illustrated by a recent gripe from Christian Schröder. Back-patch to 8.2, which is as far back as this solution will work. It's also as far back as we need to worry about the domain-constraint case, since earlier versions did not attempt to check domain constraints within datatype input. I'm not aware of any old I/O functions that use SPI themselves, so this should be sufficient for a back-patch.
* Fix executor/spi.h to follow our usual conventions for include files, ie,Tom Lane2009-01-07
| | | | | | | | | not include postgres.h nor anything else it doesn't directly need. Add #includes to calling files as needed to compensate. Per my proposal of yesterday. This should be noted as a source code change in the 8.4 release notes, since it's likely to require changes in add-on modules.
* Include a pointer to the query's source text in QueryDesc structs. This isTom Lane2009-01-02
| | | | | | | practically free given prior 8.4 changes in plancache and portal management, and it makes it a lot easier for ExecutorStart/Run/End hooks to get at the query text. Extracted from Itagaki Takahiro's pg_stat_statements patch, with minor editorialization.
