* Fix ARRAY[] construct so that in multidimensional case, elements canTom Lane2003-08-17
| | | | | | | | be anything yielding an array of the proper kind, not only sub-ARRAY[] constructs; do subscript checking at runtime not parse time. Also, adjust array_cat to make array || array comply with the SQL99 spec. Joe Conway
* Create a 'type cache' that keeps track of the data needed for any particularTom Lane2003-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | datatype by array_eq and array_cmp; use this to solve problems with memory leaks in array indexing support. The parser's equality_oper and ordering_oper routines also use the cache. Change the operator search algorithms to look for appropriate btree or hash index opclasses, instead of assuming operators named '<' or '=' have the right semantics. (ORDER BY ASC/DESC now also look at opclasses, instead of assuming '<' and '>' are the right things.) Add several more index opclasses so that there is no regression in functionality for base datatypes. initdb forced due to catalog additions.

* Support expressions of the form 'scalar op ANY (array)' andTom Lane2003-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | 'scalar op ALL (array)', where the operator is applied between the lefthand scalar and each element of the array. The operator must yield boolean; the result of the construct is the OR or AND of the per-element results, respectively. Original coding by Joe Conway, after an idea of Peter's. Rewritten by Tom to keep the implementation strictly separate from subqueries.

* Includes:Bruce Momjian2003-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - LIKE <subtable> [ INCLUDING DEFAULTS | EXCLUDING DEFAULTS ] - Quick cleanup of analyze.c function prototypes. - New non-reserved keywords (INCLUDING, EXCLUDING, DEFAULTS), SQL 200X Opted not to extend for check constraints at this time. As per the definition that it's user defined columns, OIDs are NOT inherited. Doc and Source patches attached. -- Rod Taylor <rbt@rbt.ca>
* Array mega-patch.Bruce Momjian2003-06-24
| | | | Joe Conway
* 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.
* Implement feature of new FE/BE protocol whereby RowDescription identifiesTom Lane2003-05-06
| | | | | | | | | the column by table OID and column number, if it's a simple column reference. Along the way, get rid of reskey/reskeyop fields in Resdoms. Turns out that representation was not convenient for either the planner or the executor; we can make the planner deliver exactly what the executor wants with no more effort. initdb forced due to change in stored rule representation.
* Portal and memory management infrastructure for extended query protocol.Tom Lane2003-05-02
| | | | | | | | | Both plannable queries and utility commands are now always executed within Portals, which have been revamped so that they can handle the load (they used to be good only for single SELECT queries). Restructure code to push command-completion-tag selection logic out of postgres.c, so that it won't have to be duplicated between simple and extended queries. initdb forced due to addition of a field to Query nodes.
* First phase of work on array improvements. ARRAY[x,y,z] constructorTom Lane2003-04-08
| | | | | | | expressions, ARRAY(sub-SELECT) expressions, some array functions. Polymorphic functions using ANYARRAY/ANYELEMENT argument and return types. Some regression tests in place, documentation is lacking. Joe Conway, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.
* Todo items:Bruce Momjian2003-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add ALTER SEQUENCE to modify min/max/increment/cache/cycle values Also updated create sequence docs to mention NO MINVALUE, & NO MAXVALUE. New Files: doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_sequence.sgml src/test/regress/expected/sequence.out src/test/regress/sql/sequence.sql ALTER SEQUENCE is NOT transactional. It behaves similarly to setval(). It matches the proposed SQL200N spec, as well as Oracle in most ways -- Oracle lacks RESTART WITH for some strange reason. -- Rod Taylor <rbt@rbt.ca>
* Restructure parsetree representation of DECLARE CURSOR: now it's aTom Lane2003-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | utility statement (DeclareCursorStmt) with a SELECT query dangling from it, rather than a SELECT query with a few unusual fields in it. Add code to determine whether a planned query can safely be run backwards. If DECLARE CURSOR specifies SCROLL, ensure that the plan can be run backwards by adding a Materialize plan node if it can't. Without SCROLL, you get an error if you try to fetch backwards from a cursor that can't handle it. (There is still some discussion about what the exact behavior should be, but this is necessary infrastructure in any case.) Along the way, make EXPLAIN DECLARE CURSOR work.
* Turns out new IN implementation has got some problems in an UPDATE orTom Lane2003-03-05
| | | | | DELETE with inherited target table. Fix it; add a regression test. Also, correct ancient misspelling of 'inherited'.
* COALESCE() and NULLIF() are now first-class expressions, not macrosTom Lane2003-02-16
| | | | | that turn into CASE expressions. They evaluate their arguments at most once. Patch by Kris Jurka, review and (very light) editorializing by me.
* Get rid of last few vestiges of parsetree dependency on grammar tokenTom Lane2003-02-10
| | | | | | codes, per discussion from last March. parse.h should now be included *only* by gram.y, scan.l, keywords.c, parser.c. This prevents surprising misbehavior after seemingly-trivial grammar adjustments.
* 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.
* Make further use of new bitmapset code: executor's chgParam, extParam,Tom Lane2003-02-09
| | | | | | | | locParam lists can be converted to bitmapsets to speed updating. Also, replace 'locParam' with 'allParam', which contains all the paramIDs relevant to the node (i.e., the union of extParam and locParam); this saves a step during SetChangedParamList() without costing anything elsewhere.
* Replace planner's representation of relation sets, per pghackers discussion.Tom Lane2003-02-08
| | | | | Instead of Lists of integers, we now store variable-length bitmap sets. This should be faster as well as less error-prone.
* Determine the set of constraints applied to a domain at executorTom Lane2003-02-03
| | | | | | startup, not in the parser; this allows ALTER DOMAIN to work correctly with domain constraint operations stored in rules. Rod Taylor; code review by Tom Lane.
* Grant options, and cascading revoke. Grant options are allowed only forPeter Eisentraut2003-01-23
| | | | | users right now, not groups. Extension of has_foo_privileges functions to query the grant options. Extension of aclitem type to store grantor.
* IN clauses appearing at top level of WHERE can now be handled as joins.Tom Lane2003-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | There are two implementation techniques: the executor understands a new JOIN_IN jointype, which emits at most one matching row per left-hand row, or the result of the IN's sub-select can be fed through a DISTINCT filter and then joined as an ordinary relation. Along the way, some minor code cleanup in the optimizer; notably, break out most of the jointree-rearrangement preprocessing in planner.c and put it in a new file prep/prepjointree.c.
* Allow merge and hash joins to occur on arbitrary expressions (anything notTom Lane2003-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | containing a volatile function), rather than only on 'Var = Var' clauses as before. This makes it practical to do flatten_join_alias_vars at the start of planning, which in turn eliminates a bunch of klugery inside the planner to deal with alias vars. As a free side effect, we now detect implied equality of non-Var expressions; for example in SELECT ... WHERE a.x = b.y and b.y = 42 we will deduce a.x = 42 and use that as a restriction qual on a. Also, we can remove the restriction introduced 12/5/02 to prevent pullup of subqueries whose targetlists contain sublinks. Still TODO: make statistical estimation routines in selfuncs.c and costsize.c smarter about expressions that are more complex than plain Vars. The need for this is considerably greater now that we have to be able to estimate the suitability of merge and hash join techniques on such expressions.
* Further tweaking of parsetree & plantree representation of SubLinks.Tom Lane2003-01-10
| | | | | | | Simplify SubLink by storing just a List of operator OIDs, instead of a list of incomplete OpExprs --- that was a bizarre and bulky choice, with no redeeming social value since we have to build new OpExprs anyway when forming the plan tree.
* Adjust parser so that 'x NOT IN (subselect)' is converted toTom Lane2003-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | 'NOT (x IN (subselect))', that is 'NOT (x = ANY (subselect))', rather than 'x <> ALL (subselect)' as we formerly did. This opens the door to optimizing NOT IN the same way as IN, whereas there's no hope of optimizing the expression using <>. Also, convert 'x <> ALL (subselect)' to the NOT(IN) style, so that the optimization will be available when processing rules dumped by older Postgres versions. initdb forced due to small change in SubLink node representation.
* Clean up plantree representation of SubPlan-s --- SubLink does not appearTom Lane2002-12-14
| | | | | | | | in the planned representation of a subplan at all any more, only SubPlan. This means subselect.c doesn't scribble on its input anymore, which seems like a good thing; and there are no longer three different possible interpretations of a SubLink. Simplify node naming and improve comments in primnodes.h. No change to stored rules, though.
* 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.

* 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.
* Be more realistic about plans involving Materialize nodes: take theirTom Lane2002-11-30
| | | | cost into account while planning.
* Upgrade planner and executor to allow multiple hash keys for a hash join,Tom Lane2002-11-30
| | | | | | instead of only one. This should speed up planning (only one hash path to consider for a given pair of relations) as well as allow more effective hashing, when there are multiple hashable joinclauses.
* Remove unused constisset and constiscast fields of Const nodes. CleanTom Lane2002-11-25
| | | | up code and documentation associated with Param nodes.
* Restructure the code in copyfuncs and equalfuncs to put much heavierTom Lane2002-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | reliance on macros, in hopes of eliminating silly typos (like copying to the wrong field) and just generally making it easier to see the forest instead of the trees. As an example, here is the new code for A_Indices: static A_Indices * _copyAIndices(A_Indices *from) { A_Indices *newnode = makeNode(A_Indices); COPY_NODE_FIELD(lidx); COPY_NODE_FIELD(uidx); return newnode; } static bool _equalAIndices(A_Indices *a, A_Indices *b) { COMPARE_NODE_FIELD(lidx); COMPARE_NODE_FIELD(uidx); return true; } I plan to redo outfuncs/readfuncs in a similar style, but am committing what I've got.
* Restructure planning of nestloop inner indexscans so that the set of usableTom Lane2002-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | joinclauses is determined accurately for each join. Formerly, the code only considered joinclauses that used all of the rels from the outer side of the join; thus for example FROM (a CROSS JOIN b) JOIN c ON (c.f1 = a.x AND c.f2 = b.y) could not exploit a two-column index on c(f1,f2), since neither of the qual clauses would be in the joininfo list it looked in. The new code does this correctly, and also is able to eliminate redundant clauses, thus fixing the problem noted 24-Oct-02 by Hans-Jürgen Schönig.
* 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
* Add an at-least-marginally-plausible method of estimating the numberTom Lane2002-11-19
| | | | | | of groups produced by GROUP BY. This improves the accuracy of planning estimates for grouped subselects, and is needed to check whether a hashed aggregation plan risks memory overflow.

* Code review for ON COMMIT patch. Make the actual on-commit action happenTom Lane2002-11-11
| | | | | | | | | 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.
