* More cleanup on roles patch. Allow admin option to be inherited throughTom Lane2005-06-29
| | | | | | role memberships; make superuser/createrole distinction do something useful; fix some locking and CommandCounterIncrement issues; prevent creation of loops in the membership graph.
* Bring syntax of role-related commands into SQL compliance. To avoidTom Lane2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | syntactic conflicts, both privilege and role GRANT/REVOKE commands have to use the same production for scanning the list of tokens that might eventually turn out to be privileges or role names. So, change the existing GRANT/REVOKE code to expect a list of strings not pre-reduced AclMode values. Fix a couple other minor issues while at it, such as InitializeAcl function name conflicting with a Windows system function.
* Replace pg_shadow and pg_group by new role-capable catalogs pg_authidTom Lane2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | and pg_auth_members. There are still many loose ends to finish in this patch (no documentation, no regression tests, no pg_dump support for instance). But I'm going to commit it now anyway so that Alvaro can make some progress on shared dependencies. The catalog changes should be pretty much done.
* Add Oracle-compatible GREATEST and LEAST functions. Pavel StehuleTom Lane2005-06-26

* Extend r-tree operator classes to handle Y-direction tests equivalentTom Lane2005-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | to the existing X-direction tests. An rtree class now includes 4 actual 2-D tests, 4 1-D X-direction tests, and 4 1-D Y-direction tests. This involved adding four new Y-direction test operators for each of box and polygon; I followed the PostGIS project's lead as to the names of these operators. NON BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE CHANGE: the poly_overleft (&<) and poly_overright (&>) operators now have semantics comparable to box_overleft and box_overright. This is necessary to make r-tree indexes work correctly on polygons. Also, I changed circle_left and circle_right to agree with box_left and box_right --- formerly they allowed the boundaries to touch. This isn't actually essential given the lack of any r-tree opclass for circles, but it seems best to sync all the definitions while we are at it.
* Code cleanup: remove 3 duplicate static function declarations.Neil Conway2005-06-24

* More trivial dead code removal: in int_to_roman(), checking for "num == -1"Neil Conway2005-06-22
| | | | | | | | is redundant after a check has already been made for "num < 0". The "set" variable can also be removed, as it is now no longer used. Per checking with Karel, this is the right fix. Per Coverity static analysis performed by EnterpriseDB.
* Simplify uses of readdir() by creating a function ReadDir() thatTom Lane2005-06-19
| | | | | | | includes error checking and an appropriate ereport(ERROR) message. This gets rid of rather tedious and error-prone manipulation of errno, as well as a Windows-specific bug workaround, at more than a dozen call sites. After an idea in a recent patch by Heikki Linnakangas.
* Add a time-of-preparation column to the pg_prepared_xacts view, per anTom Lane2005-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | old suggestion by Oliver Jowett. Also, add a transaction column to the pg_locks view to show the xid of each transaction holding or awaiting locks; this allows prepared transactions to be properly associated with the locks they own. There was already a column named 'transaction', and I chose to rename it to 'transactionid' --- since this column is new in the current devel cycle there should be no backwards compatibility issue to worry about.
* This patch makes it possible to use the full set of timezones when doingBruce Momjian2005-06-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "AT TIME ZONE", and not just the shorlist previously available. For example: SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP AT TIME ZONE 'Europe/London'; works fine now. It will also obey whatever DST rules were in effect at just that date, which the previous implementation did not. It also supports the AT TIME ZONE on the timetz datatype. The whole handling of DST is a bit bogus there, so I chose to make it use whatever DST rules are in effect at the time of executig the query. not sure if anybody is actuallyi *using* timetz though, it seems pretty unpredictable just because of this...

* Add pg_postmaster_start_time() function.Bruce Momjian2005-06-14

* Change the planner to allow indexscan qualification clauses to useTom Lane2005-06-13
| | | | | | | | | nonconsecutive columns of a multicolumn index, as per discussion around mid-May (pghackers thread "Best way to scan on-disk bitmaps"). This turns out to require only minimal changes in btree, and so far as I can see none at all in GiST. btcostestimate did need some work, but its original assumption that index selectivity == heap selectivity was quite bogus even before this.
* Separate predicate-testing code out of indxpath.c, making it a moduleTom Lane2005-06-10
| | | | | in its own right. As proposed by Simon Riggs, but with some editorializing of my own.
* Remove planner's private fields from Query struct, and put them intoTom Lane2005-06-05
| | | | | | | | a new PlannerInfo struct, which is passed around instead of the bare Query in all the planning code. This commit is essentially just a code-beautification exercise, but it does open the door to making larger changes to the planner data structures without having to muck with the widely-known Query struct.
* Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the sameTom Lane2005-06-05
| | | | | | | | | representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs accessible by unqualified names. I think this is conceptually simpler than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search. This seems to eliminate the parse-time bottleneck for deeply nested JOIN structures that was exhibited by phil@vodafone.
* Fix NUMERIC modulus to properly truncate division in computation.Bruce Momjian2005-06-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Division rounding was causing incorrect results. Test case: test=> SELECT 12345678901234567890 % 123; ?column? ---------- 78 (1 row) Was returning -45.
* Revise handling of dropped columns in JOIN alias lists to avoid aTom Lane2005-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | performance problem pointed out by phil@vodafone: to wit, we were spending O(N^2) time to check dropped-ness in an N-deep join tree, even in the case where the tree was freshly constructed and couldn't possibly mention any dropped columns. Instead of recursing in get_rte_attribute_is_dropped(), change the data structure definition: the joinaliasvars list of a JOIN RTE must have a NULL Const instead of a Var at any position that references a now-dropped column. This costs nothing during normal parse-rewrite-plan path, and instead we have a linear-time update to make when loading a stored rule that might contain now-dropped columns. While at it, move the responsibility for acquring locks on relations referenced by rules into this separate function (which I therefore chose to call AcquireRewriteLocks). This saves effort --- namely, duplicated lock grabs in parser and rewriter --- in the normal path at a cost of one extra non-locked heap_open() in the stored-rule path; seems a good tradeoff. A fringe benefit is that it is now *much* clearer that we acquire lock on relations referenced in rules before we make any rewriter decisions based on their properties. (I don't know of any bug of that ilk, but it wasn't exactly clear before.)
* patternsel() was improperly stripping RelabelType from the derivedTom Lane2005-06-01
| | | | | | expressions it constructed, causing scalarineqsel to become confused if the underlying variable was of a domain type. Per report from Kevin Grittner.
* Teach ruleutils to drill down into RECORD-type Vars in the same wayTom Lane2005-05-31
| | | | | that the parser now can, so that it can reverse-list cases involving FieldSelect from a RECORD Var.
* When enqueueing after-row triggers for updates of a table with a foreignNeil Conway2005-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | key, compare the new and old row versions. If the foreign key column has not changed, we needn't enqueue the trigger, since the update cannot violate the foreign key. This optimization was previously applied in the RI trigger function, but it is more efficient to avoid firing the trigger altogether. Per recent discussion on pgsql-hackers. Also add a regression test for some unintuitive foreign key behavior, and refactor some code that deals with the OIDs of the various RI trigger functions.
* Fix longstanding oversight in ruleutils.c: it doesn't regurgitateTom Lane2005-05-30
| | | | a FOR UPDATE clause, if one is present.
* Change the UNKNOWN type to have an internal representation matchingTom Lane2005-05-30
| | | | | cstring, rather than text, so as to eliminate useless conversions inside the parser. Per recent discussion.
* Marginal hack to save a little bit of time in bpcharin() when typmod is -1,Tom Lane2005-05-29
| | | | which is a common case.
* Modify hash_search() API to prevent future occurrences of the errorTom Lane2005-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | spotted by Qingqing Zhou. The HASH_ENTER action now automatically fails with elog(ERROR) on out-of-memory --- which incidentally lets us eliminate duplicate error checks in quite a bunch of places. If you really need the old return-NULL-on-out-of-memory behavior, you can ask for HASH_ENTER_NULL. But there is now an Assert in that path checking that you aren't hoping to get that behavior in a palloc-based hash table. Along the way, remove the old HASH_FIND_SAVE/HASH_REMOVE_SAVED actions, which were not being used anywhere anymore, and were surely too ugly and unsafe to want to see revived again.

* Adjust datetime parsing to be more robust. We now pass the length of theNeil Conway2005-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | working buffer into ParseDateTime() and reject too-long input there, rather than checking the length of the input string before calling ParseDateTime(). The old method was bogus because ParseDateTime() can use a variable amount of working space, depending on the content of the input string (e.g. how many fields need to be NUL terminated). This fixes a minor stack overrun -- I don't _think_ it's exploitable, although I won't claim to be an expert. Along the way, fix a bug reported by Mark Dilger: the working buffer allocated by interval_in() was too short, which resulted in rejecting some perfectly valid interval input values. I added a regression test for this fix.
* At the head of wchareq, length of (multibyte) character is compared byBruce Momjian2005-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | using pg_mblen. Therefore, pg_mblen is executed many times, and it becomes a bottleneck. This patch makes a short cut, and reduces execution frequency of pg_mblen by comparing the first byte first. a_ogawa

* Split the shared-memory array of PGPROC pointers out of the sinvalTom Lane2005-05-19

* This patch reduces the size of the message header used by statisticsNeil Conway2005-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | collector messages, per recent discussion on pgsql-patches. This actually required quite a few changes -- for example, "databaseid != InvalidOid" was used to check whether a slot in the backend entry table was initialized, but that no longer works since the slot might be initialized prior to receiving the BESTART message which contains the database id. We now use procpid > 0 to indicate that a slot is non-empty. Other changes: - various comment improvements and cleanups - there's no need to zero-out the entire activity buffer in pgstat_add_backend(), we can just set activity[0] to '\0'. - remove the counting of the # of connections to a database; this was not used anywhere One change in behavior I wasn't sure about: previously, the code would create a hash table entry for a database as soon as any message was received whose header referenced that database. Now, we only create hash table entries as needed (so for example BESTART won't create a database hash table entry, since it doesn't need to access anything in the per-db hash table). It would be easy enough to retain the old behavior, but AFAICS it is not required.

* Check the file system on postmaster startup and report any unreferencedBruce Momjian2005-05-02
| | | | | | files in the server log. Heikki Linnakangas
* Change CREATE TYPE to require datatype output and send functions to haveTom Lane2005-05-01
| | | | | | | only one argument. (Per recent discussion, the option to accept multiple arguments is pretty useless for user-defined types, and would be a likely source of security holes if it was used.) Simplify call sites of output/send functions to not bother passing more than one argument.
* Make record_out and record_send extract type information from the passedTom Lane2005-04-30
| | | | | | | record object itself, rather than relying on a second OID argument to be correct. This patch just changes the function behavior and not the catalogs, so it's OK to back-patch to 8.0. Will remove the now-redundant second argument in pg_proc in a separate patch in HEAD only.
* GCC 4.0 includes a new warning option, -Wformat-literal, that emitsNeil Conway2005-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a warning when a variable is used as a format string for printf() and similar functions (if the variable is derived from untrusted data, it could include unexpected formatting sequences). This emits too many warnings to be enabled by default, but it does flag a few dubious constructs in the Postgres tree. This patch fixes up the obvious variants: functions that are passed a variable format string but no additional arguments. Most of these are harmless (e.g. the ruleutils stuff), but there is at least one actual bug here: if you create a trigger named "%sfoo", pg_dump will read uninitialized memory and fail to dump the trigger correctly.
* Restructure LOCKTAG as per discussions of a couple months ago.Tom Lane2005-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Essentially, we shoehorn in a lockable-object-type field by taking a byte away from the lockmethodid, which can surely fit in one byte instead of two. This allows less artificial definitions of all the other fields of LOCKTAG; we can get rid of the special pg_xactlock pseudo-relation, and also support locks on individual tuples and general database objects (including shared objects). None of those possibilities are actually exploited just yet, however. I removed pg_xactlock from pg_class, but did not force initdb for that change. At this point, relkind 's' (SPECIAL) is unused and could be removed entirely.
