* 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.
* Infrastructure for deducing Param types from context, in the same wayTom Lane2003-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | that the types of untyped string-literal constants are deduced (ie, when coerce_type is applied to 'em, that's what the type must be). Remove the ancient hack of storing the input Param-types array as a global variable, and put the info into ParseState instead. This touches a lot of files because of adjustment of routine parameter lists, but it's really not a large patch. Note: PREPARE statement still insists on exact specification of parameter types, but that could easily be relaxed now, if we wanted to do so.
* Put back encoding-conversion step in processing of incoming queries;Tom Lane2003-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | I had inadvertently omitted it while rearranging things to support length-counted incoming messages. Also, change the parser's API back to accepting a 'char *' query string instead of 'StringInfo', as the latter wasn't buying us anything except overhead. (I think when I put it in I had some notion of making the parser API 8-bit-clean, but seeing that flex depends on null-terminated input, that's not really ever gonna happen.)
* Infrastructure for upgraded error reporting mechanism. elog.c isTom Lane2003-04-24
| | | | | | | rewritten and the protocol is changed, but most elog calls are still elog calls. Also, we need to contemplate mechanisms for controlling all this functionality --- eg, how much stuff should appear in the postmaster log? And what API should libpq expose for it?
* Another round of protocol changes. Backend-to-frontend messages now allTom Lane2003-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | have length words. COPY OUT reimplemented per new protocol: it doesn't need \. anymore, thank goodness. COPY BINARY to/from frontend works, at least as far as the backend is concerned --- libpq's PQgetline API is not up to snuff, and will have to be replaced with something that is null-safe. libpq uses message length words for performance improvement (no cycles wasted rescanning long messages), but not yet for error recovery.
* Second round of FE/BE protocol changes. Frontend->backend messages nowTom Lane2003-04-19
| | | | have length counts, and COPY IN data is packetized into messages.
* First phase of FE/BE protocol modifications: new StartupPacket layoutTom Lane2003-04-17
| | | | | | with variable-width fields. No more truncation of long user names. Also, libpq can now send its environment-variable-driven SET commands as part of the startup packet, saving round trips to server.
* Prevent multiple queries in a single string into a single transactionBruce Momjian2003-03-24
| | | | when autocommit is off, and document grouping when autocommit is on.

* 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.
* Add code to dump contents of free space map into $PGDATA/global/pg_fsm.cacheTom Lane2003-03-06
| | | | | | at database shutdown, and then load it again at database startup. This preserves our hard-won knowledge of free space across restarts (given an orderly shutdown, that is).
* 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.

This fixes 'can't wait without a PROC structure' failures occasionally seen during backend shutdown (I'm surprised they weren't more frequent, actually). Add an Assert() to LWLockAcquire to help catch any similar mistakes in future. Fix failure to update MyProcPid for standalone backends and pgstat processes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | > moment, but they used to be used; I think the correct response is to > put back the missing counter increments, not rip out the counters. Ok, fair enough. It's worth noting that they've been broken for a while -- for example, the HashJoin counter increments were broken when you comitted r1.20 of executor/nodeHashJoin.c in May of '99. I've attached a revised patch that doesn't remove the counters (but doesn't increment them either: I'm not sure of all the places where the counter should be incremented). Neil Conway
* Fix for rare race-condition-like failure: if a backend receives SIGUSR2Tom Lane2002-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | (notify/SI-overrun interrupt) while it is in process of doing proc_exit, it is possible for Async_NotifyHandler() to try to start a transaction when one is already running. This leads to Asserts() or worse. I think it may only be possible to occur when frontend synchronization is lost (ie, the elog(FATAL) in SocketBackend() fires), but that is a standard occurrence after error during COPY. In any case, I have seen this failure occur during regression tests, so it is definitely possible.

* AUTOCOMMIT mode is now an available backend GUC variable; setting itTom Lane2002-08-30
| | | | | | | | | to false provides more SQL-spec-compliant behavior than we had before. I am not sure that setting it false is actually a good idea yet; there is a lot of client-side code that will probably be broken by turning autocommit off. But it's a start. Loosely based on a patch by David Van Wie.

A simple change, but > it passeth patch's understanding ... Thanks. Attached is a patch against cvs tip as of 8:30 PM PST or so. Turned out that even after fixing the failed hunks, there was a new spot in bufmgr.c which needed to be fixed (related to temp relations; RelationUpdateNumberOfBlocks). But thankfully the regression test code caught it :-) Joe Conway
* This patch removes a lot of unused code related to assertions andBruce Momjian2002-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | error handling, and simplifies the code that remains. Apparently, the code that left Berkeley had a whole "error handling subsystem", which exceptions and whatnot. Since we don't use that anymore, there's no reason to keep it around. The regression tests pass with the patch applied. Unless anyone sees a problem, please apply. Neil Conway
* This patch changes the behavior of PostgreSQL so that if any queries areBruce Momjian2002-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | executed in an implicitely aborted transaction (e.g. after an occur occurs), we return an error (and not just a warning). For example: nconway=# begin; BEGIN nconway=# insert; -- syntax error ERROR: parser: parse error at or near ";" nconway=# select * from a; ERROR: current transaction is aborted, queries ignored until end of transaction block The old behavior was: nconway=# begin; BEGIN nconway=# insert; ERROR: parser: parse error at or near ";" nconway=# select * from a; WARNING: current transaction is aborted, queries ignored until end of transaction block *ABORT STATE* Which can be confusing: if the client isn't paying careful attention, they will conclude that the query has executed (because no error is returned).
