* Support renaming of tablespaces, and changing the owners ofTom Lane2004-06-25
| | | | | | | | aggregates, conversions, functions, operators, operator classes, schemas, types, and tablespaces. Fold the existing implementations of alter domain owner and alter database owner in with these. Christopher Kings-Lynne

* Tablespaces. Alternate database locations are dead, long live tablespaces.Tom Lane2004-06-18
| | | | | | | | | There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is dead, it just doesn't know it yet. Gavin Sherry and Tom Lane.
* When using extended-query protocol, postpone planning of unnamed statementsTom Lane2004-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | until Bind is received, so that actual parameter values are visible to the planner. Make use of the parameter values for estimation purposes (but don't fold them into the actual plan). This buys back most of the potential loss of plan quality that ensues from using out-of-line parameters instead of putting literal values right into the query text. This patch creates a notion of constant-folding expressions 'for estimation purposes only', in which case we can be more aggressive than the normal eval_const_expressions() logic can be. Right now the only difference in behavior is inserting bound values for Params, but it will be interesting to look at other possibilities. One that we've seen come up repeatedly is reducing now() and related functions to current values, so that queries like ... WHERE timestampcol > now() - '1 day' have some chance of being planned effectively. Oliver Jowett, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.
* Infrastructure for I/O of composite types: arrange for the I/O routinesTom Lane2004-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | of a composite type to get that type's OID as their second parameter, in place of typelem which is useless. The actual changes are mostly centralized in getTypeInputInfo and siblings, but I had to fix a few places that were fetching pg_type.typelem for themselves instead of using the lsyscache.c routines. Also, I renamed all the related variables from 'typelem' to 'typioparam' to discourage people from assuming that they necessarily contain array element types.
* Tweak palloc/repalloc to allow zero bytes to be requested, as per recentTom Lane2004-06-05
| | | | | proposal. Eliminate several dozen now-unnecessary hacks to avoid palloc(0). (It's likely there are more that I didn't find.)
* Adjust our timezone library to use pg_time_t (typedef'd as int64) inTom Lane2004-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | place of time_t, as per prior discussion. The behavior does not change on machines without a 64-bit-int type, but on machines with one, which is most, we are rid of the bizarre boundary behavior at the edges of the 32-bit-time_t range (1901 and 2038). The system will now treat times over the full supported timestamp range as being in your local time zone. It may seem a little bizarre to consider that times in 4000 BC are PST or EST, but this is surely at least as reasonable as propagating Gregorian calendar rules back that far. I did not modify the format of the zic timezone database files, which means that for the moment the system will not know about daylight-savings periods outside the range 1901-2038. Given the way the files are set up, it's not a simple decision like 'widen to 64 bits'; we have to actually think about the range of years that need to be supported. We should probably inquire what the plans of the upstream zic people are before making any decisions of our own.
* Separate out bgwriter code into a logically separate module, ratherTom Lane2004-05-29
| | | | | | | | | than being random pieces of other files. Give bgwriter responsibility for all checkpoint activity (other than a post-recovery checkpoint); so this child process absorbs the functionality of the former transient checkpoint and shutdown subprocesses. While at it, create an actual include file for postmaster.c, which for some reason never had its own file before.
* Code review for EXEC_BACKEND changes. Reduce the number of #ifdefs byTom Lane2004-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | about a third, make it work on non-Windows platforms again. (But perhaps I broke the WIN32 code, since I have no way to test that.) Fold all the paths that fork postmaster child processes to go through the single routine SubPostmasterMain, which takes care of resurrecting the state that would normally be inherited from the postmaster (including GUC variables). Clean up some places where there's no particularly good reason for the EXEC and non-EXEC cases to work differently. Take care of one or two FIXMEs that remained in the code.

* This patch implement the TODO [ALTER DATABASE foo OWNER TO bar].Bruce Momjian2004-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | It was necessary to touch in grammar and create a new node to make home to the new syntax. The command is also supported in E CPG. Doc updates are attached too. Only superusers can change the owner of the database. New owners don't need any aditional privileges. Euler Taveira de Oliveira
* 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.
* Handle impending sinval queue overflow by means of a separate signalTom Lane2004-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (SIGUSR1, which we have not been using recently) instead of piggybacking on SIGUSR2-driven NOTIFY processing. This has several good results: the processing needed to drain the sinval queue is a lot less than the processing needed to answer a NOTIFY; there's less contention since we don't have a bunch of backends all trying to acquire exclusive lock on pg_listener; backends that are sitting inside a transaction block can still drain the queue, whereas NOTIFY processing can't run if there's an open transaction block. (This last is a fairly serious issue that I don't think we ever recognized before --- with clients like JDBC that tend to sit with open transaction blocks, the sinval queue draining mechanism never really worked as intended, probably resulting in a lot of useless cache-reset overhead.) This is the last of several proposed changes in response to Philip Warner's recent report of sinval-induced performance problems.
* Integrate src/timezone library for all platforms. There is more we canTom Lane2004-05-21
| | | | | | and should do now that we control our own destiny for timezone handling, but this commit gets the bulk of the picayune diffs in place. Magnus Hagander and Tom Lane.

* Move find_my_exec() way up into main.c so it is available to theBruce Momjian2004-05-18
| | | | | | | | timezone code and other places. Remove elog() calls from find_my_exec; do fprintf(stderr) instead. We can then remove the exec.c handling in the makefile because it doesn't have to be built to suppress elog calls.
* Reorganize code to allow path-relative installs.Bruce Momjian2004-05-17
| | | | | | | Create new get_* functions to access compiled-in paths and adjust if relative installs are to be used. Clean up substitute_libpath_macro() code.
* Adjust find_my_exec/find_other_exec() so that the return parameter isBruce Momjian2004-05-14

* Rename find_my_binary/find_other_binary toBruce Momjian2004-05-12
| | | | | | | | | find_my_exec/find_other_exec(). Remove passing of progname to these functions as they can find that out from argv[0], which they already have. Make get_progname return const char *, and update all progname variables to be const char *.
* As part of the work for making relocatable installs, I have re-factoredBruce Momjian2004-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | all the code that looks for other binaries. I move FindExec into port/exec.c (and renamed it to find_my_binary()). I also added find_other_binary that looks for another binary in the same directory as the calling program, and checks the version string. The only behavior change was that initdb and pg_dump would look in the hard-coded bindir directory if it can't find the requested binary in the same directory as the caller. The new code throws an error. The old behavior seemed too error prone for version mismatches.

* Remove crude test for log_statement_stats in startup code now that weBruce Momjian2004-05-07
| | | | | | | have a more proper GUC based test. Also change error return code to ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE so it matches the old error return code.
* ALTER TABLE rewrite. New cool stuff:Tom Lane2004-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * ALTER ... ADD COLUMN with defaults and NOT NULL constraints works per SQL spec. A default is implemented by rewriting the table with the new value stored in each row. * ALTER COLUMN TYPE. You can change a column's datatype to anything you want, so long as you can specify how to convert the old value. Rewrites the table. (Possible future improvement: optimize no-op conversions such as varchar(N) to varchar(N+1).) * Multiple ALTER actions in a single ALTER TABLE command. You can perform any number of column additions, type changes, and constraint additions with only one pass over the table contents. Basic documentation provided in ALTER TABLE ref page, but some more docs work is needed. Original patch from Rod Taylor, additional work from Tom Lane.
* Remove the last traces of Joe Hellerstein's "xfunc" optimization. PatchNeil Conway2004-04-25

The log_statement values are 'none', 'mod', 'ddl', and 'all'. For 'all', it prints before the query is parsed, and for ddl/mod, it does it right after parsing using the node tag (or command tag for CREATE/ALTER/DROP), so any non-parse errors will print after the log line.
* Replace max_expr_depth parameter with a max_stack_depth parameter thatTom Lane2004-03-24

| | | | | | | | | remove separate implementation of ALTER TABLE SET WITHOUT OIDS in favor of doing a regular DROP. Also, cause CREATE TABLE to account completely correctly for the inheritance status of the OID column. This fixes problems with dropping OID columns that have dependencies, as noted by Christopher Kings-Lynne, as well as making sure that you can't drop an OID column that was inherited from a parent.
