* It is possible for ResolveNew to be used to insert a sublink into aTom Lane2003-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | subquery that didn't previously have one. We have traditionally made the caller of ResolveNew responsible for updating the hasSubLinks flag of the outermost query, but this fails to account for hasSubLinks in subqueries. Fix ResolveNew to handle this. We might later want to change the calling convention of ResolveNew so that it can fix the outer query too, simplifying callers. But I went with the localized fix for now. Per bug report from J Smith, 20-Oct-03.

* Code cleanup inspired by recent resname bug report (doesn't fix the bugTom Lane2003-08-11
| | | | | | | | yet, though). Avoid using nth() to fetch tlist entries; provide a common routine get_tle_by_resno() to search a tlist for a particular resno. This replaces a couple uses of nth() and a dozen hand-coded search loops. Also, replace a few uses of nth(length-1, list) with llast().

* Add defenses against trying to attach qual conditions to a setOperationTom Lane2003-07-16
| | | | | | query node, since that won't work unless the planner is upgraded. Someday we should try to support at least some cases of this, but for now just plug the hole in the dike. Per discussion with Dmitry Tkach.
* 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 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.
* 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.
* Adjust API of expression_tree_mutator and query_tree_mutator toTom Lane2003-01-17
| | | | | | simplify callers. It turns out the common case is that the caller does want to recurse into sub-queries, so push support for that into these subroutines.
* 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.
* Rule rewriter was doing the wrong thing with conditional INSTEAD rulesTom Lane2002-10-20
| | | | | | | | | whose conditions might yield NULL. The negated qual to attach to the original query is properly 'x IS NOT TRUE', not 'NOT x'. This fix produces correct behavior, but we may be taking a performance hit because the planner is much stupider about IS NOT TRUE than it is about NOT clauses. Future TODO: teach prepqual, other parts of planner how to cope with BooleanTest clauses more effectively.
* Tweak querytree-dependency-extraction code so that columns of tablesTom Lane2002-09-11
| | | | | | | | | that are explicitly JOINed are not considered dependencies unless they are actually used in the query: mere presence in the joinaliasvars list of a JOIN RTE doesn't count as being used. The patch touches a number of files because I needed to generalize the API of query_tree_walker to support an additional flag bit, but the changes are otherwise quite small.

* First phase of SCHEMA changes, concentrating on fixing the grammar andTom Lane2002-03-21
| | | | | | | | the parsetree representation. As yet we don't *do* anything with schema names, just drop 'em on the floor; but you can enter schema-compatible command syntax, and there's even a primitive CREATE SCHEMA command. No doc updates yet, except to note that you can now extract a field from a function-returning-row's result with (foo(...)).fieldname.
* Restructure representation of join alias variables. An explicit JOINTom Lane2002-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | now has an RTE of its own, and references to its outputs now are Vars referencing the JOIN RTE, rather than CASE-expressions. This allows reverse-listing in ruleutils.c to use the correct alias easily, rather than painfully reverse-engineering the alias namespace as it used to do. Also, nested FULL JOINs work correctly, because the result of the inner joins are simple Vars that the planner can cope with. This fixes a bug reported a couple times now, notably by Tatsuo on 18-Nov-01. The alias Vars are expanded into COALESCE expressions where needed at the very end of planning, rather than during parsing. Also, beginnings of support for showing plan qualifier expressions in EXPLAIN. There are probably still cases that need work. initdb forced due to change of stored-rule representation.

* Revert treatment of NOTIFY in rules to its pre-7.1 behavior: notify willTom Lane2001-09-07
| | | | | | occur unconditionally, even if the rule should otherwise execute conditionally. This is more useful than giving an error, even though it's not truly the correct behavior. Per today's pghackers discussion.

* Refuse to try to attach a condition to a NOTIFY or other utility statement,Tom Lane2001-01-27
| | | | | | rather than coredumping (as prior 7.1 code did) or silently dropping the condition (as 7.0 did). This is annoying but there doesn't seem to be any good way to fix it, short of a major querytree restructuring.

* Clean up handling of FOR UPDATE inside views and subselects ... make itTom Lane2000-12-06
| | | | | | | work where we can (given that the executor only handles it at top level) and generate an error where we can't. Note that while the parser has been allowing views to say SELECT FOR UPDATE for a few weeks now, that hasn't actually worked until just now.
* Repair breakage of rules containing INSERT ... SELECT actions, per bugTom Lane2000-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | report from Joel Burton. Turns out that my simple idea of turning the SELECT into a subquery does not interact well *at all* with the way the rule rewriter works. Really what we need to make INSERT ... SELECT work cleanly is to decouple targetlists from rangetables: an INSERT ... SELECT wants to have two levels of targetlist but only one rangetable. No time for that for 7.1, however, so I've inserted some ugly hacks to make the rewriter know explicitly about the structure of INSERT ... SELECT queries. Ugh :-(
* Change SearchSysCache coding conventions so that a reference count isTom Lane2000-11-16
| | | | | | | maintained for each cache entry. A cache entry will not be freed until the matching ReleaseSysCache call has been executed. This eliminates worries about cache entries getting dropped while still in use. See my posting to pg-hackers of even date for more info.
* Reimplementation of UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT. INTERSECT/EXCEPT now meet theTom Lane2000-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | SQL92 semantics, including support for ALL option. All three can be used in subqueries and views. DISTINCT and ORDER BY work now in views, too. This rewrite fixes many problems with cross-datatype UNIONs and INSERT/SELECT where the SELECT yields different datatypes than the INSERT needs. I did that by making UNION subqueries and SELECT in INSERT be treated like subselects-in-FROM, thereby allowing an extra level of targetlist where the datatype conversions can be inserted safely. INITDB NEEDED!
* Subselects in FROM clause, per ISO syntax: FROM (SELECT ...) [AS] alias.Tom Lane2000-09-29
| | | | | | | | | (Don't forget that an alias is required.) Views reimplemented as expanding to subselect-in-FROM. Grouping, aggregates, DISTINCT in views actually work now (he says optimistically). No UNION support in subselects/views yet, but I have some ideas about that. Rule-related permissions checking moved out of rewriter and into executor. INITDB REQUIRED!

| | | | | | | mark query as having subselects if a subselect was added from a rule WHERE condition (as opposed to a rule action). Also, fix adjustment of varlevelsup so that it actually has some prospect of working when inserting an expression containing a subselect into a subquery.
* Redesign DISTINCT ON as discussed in pgsql-sql 1/25/00: syntax is nowTom Lane2000-01-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | SELECT DISTINCT ON (expr [, expr ...]) targetlist ... and there is a check to make sure that the user didn't specify an ORDER BY that's incompatible with the DISTINCT operation. Reimplement nodeUnique and nodeGroup to use the proper datatype-specific equality function for each column being compared --- they used to do bitwise comparisons or convert the data to text strings and strcmp(). (To add insult to injury, they'd look up the conversion functions once for each tuple...) Parse/plan representation of DISTINCT is now a list of SortClause nodes. initdb forced by querytree change...

* Clean up rewriter routines to use expression_tree_walker andTom Lane1999-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | expression_tree_mutator rather than ad-hoc tree walking code. This shortens the code materially and fixes a fair number of sins of omission. Also, change modifyAggrefQual to *not* recurse into subselects, since its mission is satisfied if it removes aggregate functions from the top level of a WHERE clause. This cures problems with queries of the form SELECT ... WHERE x IN (SELECT ... HAVING something-using-an-aggregate), which would formerly get mucked up by modifyAggrefQual. The routine is still fundamentally broken, of course, but I don't think there's any way to get rid of it before we implement subselects in FROM ...
* Revise implementation of SubLinks so that there is a consistent,Tom Lane1999-08-25
| | | | | | | | | documented intepretation of the lefthand and oper fields. Fix a number of obscure problems while at it --- for example, the old code failed if the parser decided to insert a type-coercion function just below the operator of a SubLink. CAUTION: this will break stored rules that contain subplans. You may need to initdb.
* Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of queryTom Lane1999-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top level of the planner. This fixes many things. An explicit sort is now avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY. It works even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider the indexscan. It works for indexes on functions. It works for indexes on functions, backwards. It's just so cool... CAUTION: I have changed the representation of SortClause nodes, therefore THIS UPDATE BREAKS STORED RULES. You will need to initdb.
