* Alphabetically order reference to include files, "N" - "S".Bruce Momjian2006-07-11

* Improve the representation of FOR UPDATE/FOR SHARE so that we canTom Lane2006-04-30
| | | | | | support both FOR UPDATE and FOR SHARE in one command, as well as both NOWAIT and normal WAIT behavior. The more general code is actually simpler and cleaner.
* Fix a bunch of problems with domains by making them use special input functionsTom Lane2006-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | that apply the necessary domain constraint checks immediately. This fixes cases where domain constraints went unchecked for statement parameters, PL function local variables and results, etc. We can also eliminate existing special cases for domains in places that had gotten it right, eg COPY. Also, allow domains over domains (base of a domain is another domain type). This almost worked before, but was disallowed because the original patch hadn't gotten it quite right.

* Restructure planner's handling of inheritance. Rather than processingTom Lane2006-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | inheritance trees on-the-fly, which pretty well constrained us to considering only one way of planning inheritance, expand inheritance sets during the planner prep phase, and build a side data structure that can be consulted later to find which RTEs are members of which inheritance sets. As proof of concept, use the data structure to plan joins against inheritance sets more efficiently: we can now use indexes on the set members in inner-indexscan joins. (The generated plans could be improved further, but it'll take some executor changes.) This data structure will also support handling UNION ALL subqueries in the same way as inheritance sets, but that aspect of it isn't finished yet.

* Fix problems with rewriter failing to set Query.hasSubLinks when insertingTom Lane2005-11-23
| | | | | | | a SubLink expression into a rule query. Pre-8.1 we essentially did this unconditionally; 8.1 tries to do it only when needed, but was missing a couple of cases. Per report from Kyle Bateman. Add some regression test cases covering this area.
* Re-run pgindent, fixing a problem where comment lines after a blankBruce Momjian2005-11-22
| | | | | | | | | comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for indenting). Backpatch to 8.1.X.

* Change expandRTE() and ResolveNew() back to taking just the singleTom Lane2005-06-04
| | | | | | RTE of interest, rather than the whole rangetable list. This makes the API more understandable and avoids duplicate RTE lookups. This patch reverts no-longer-needed portions of my patch of 2004-08-19.
* Make the behavior of HAVING without GROUP BY conform to the SQL spec.Tom Lane2005-03-10
| | | | | | | | | Formerly, if such a clause contained no aggregate functions we mistakenly treated it as equivalent to WHERE. Per spec it must cause the query to be treated as a grouped query of a single group, the same as appearance of aggregate functions would do. Also, the HAVING filter must execute after aggregate function computation even if it itself contains no aggregate functions.

* Repair some issues with column aliases and RowExpr construction in theTom Lane2004-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | presence of dropped columns. Document the already-presumed fact that eref aliases in relation RTEs are supposed to have entries for dropped columns; cause the user alias structs to have such entries too, so that there's always a one-to-one mapping to the underlying physical attnums. Adjust expandRTE() and related code to handle the case where a column that is part of a JOIN has been dropped. Generalize expandRTE()'s API so that it can be used in a couple of places that formerly rolled their own implementation of the same logic. Fix ruleutils.c to suppress display of aliases for columns that were dropped since the rule was made.
* Standardize on the assumption that the arguments of a RowExpr correspondTom Lane2004-08-17
| | | | | | | to the physical layout of the rowtype, ie, there are dummy arguments corresponding to any dropped columns in the rowtype. We formerly had a couple of places that did it this way and several others that did not. Fixes Gaetano Mendola's "cache lookup failed for type 0" bug of 5-Aug.
* Use the new List API function names throughout the backend, and disable theNeil Conway2004-05-30
| | | | | list compatibility API by default. While doing this, I decided to keep the llast() macro around and introduce llast_int() and llast_oid() variants.
* Reimplement the linked list data structure used throughout the backend.Neil Conway2004-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer. A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes. The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope, be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of the tree has been updated to use the new API names.
* Promote row expressions to full-fledged citizens of the expression syntax,Tom Lane2004-05-10
| | | | | | | | | | rather than allowing them only in a few special cases as before. In particular you can now pass a ROW() construct to a function that accepts a rowtype parameter. Internal generation of RowExprs fixes a number of corner cases that used to not work very well, such as referencing the whole-row result of a JOIN or subquery. This represents a further step in the work I started a month or so back to make rowtype values into first-class citizens.

* 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.
* Message editing: remove gratuitous variations in message wording, standardizePeter Eisentraut2003-09-25

* 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().

| | | | | | 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

* 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
