* Improve hash_create()'s API for some added robustness.Tom Lane2020-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Invent a new flag bit HASH_STRINGS to specify C-string hashing, which was formerly the default; and add assertions insisting that exactly one of the bits HASH_STRINGS, HASH_BLOBS, and HASH_FUNCTION be set. This is in hopes of preventing recurrences of the type of oversight fixed in commit a1b8aa1e4 (i.e., mistakenly omitting HASH_BLOBS). Also, when HASH_STRINGS is specified, insist that the keysize be more than 8 bytes. This is a heuristic, but it should catch accidental use of HASH_STRINGS for integer or pointer keys. (Nearly all existing use-cases set the keysize to NAMEDATALEN or more, so there's little reason to think this restriction should be problematic.) Tweak hash_create() to insist that the HASH_ELEM flag be set, and remove the defaults it had for keysize and entrysize. Since those defaults were undocumented and basically useless, no callers omitted HASH_ELEM anyway. Also, remove memset's zeroing the HASHCTL parameter struct from those callers that had one. This has never been really necessary, and while it wasn't a bad coding convention it was confusing that some callers did it and some did not. We might as well save a few cycles by standardizing on "not". Also improve the documentation for hash_create(). In passing, improve reinit.c's usage of a hash table by storing the key as a binary Oid rather than a string; and, since that's a temporary hash table, allocate it in CurrentMemoryContext for neatness.

* Rework custom scans to work more like the new extensible node stuff.Robert Haas2016-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Per discussion, the new extensible node framework is thought to be better designed than the custom path/scan/scanstate stuff we added in PostgreSQL 9.5. Rework the latter to be more like the former. This is not backward-compatible, but we generally don't promise that for C APIs, and there probably aren't many people using this yet anyway. KaiGai Kohei, reviewed by Petr Jelinek and me. Some further cosmetic changes by me.
* Improve check for overly-long extensible node name.Robert Haas2016-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | The old code is bad for two reasons. First, it has an off-by-one error. Second, it won't help if you aren't running with assertions enabled. Per discussion, we want a check here in that case too. Author: KaiGai Kohei, adjusted by me. Reviewed-by: Petr Jelinek Discussion: 56E0D547.1030101@2ndquadrant.com

* Introduce extensible node types.Robert Haas2016-02-12
An extensible node is always tagged T_Extensible, but the extnodename field identifies it more specifically; it may also include arbitrary private data. Extensible nodes can be copied, tested for equality, serialized, and deserialized, but the core system doesn't know anything about them otherwise. Some extensions may find it useful to include these nodes in fdw_private or custom_private lists in lieu of arm-wrestling their data into a format that the core code can understand. Along the way, so as not to burden the authors of such extensible node types too much, expose the functions for writing serialized tokens, and for serializing and deserializing bitmapsets. KaiGai Kohei, per a design suggested by me. Reviewed by Andres Freund and by me, and further edited by me.
