* Improve hash_create's API for selecting simple-binary-key hash functions.Tom Lane2014-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, if you wanted anything besides C-string hash keys, you had to specify a custom hashing function to hash_create(). Nearly all such callers were specifying tag_hash or oid_hash; which is tedious, and rather error-prone, since a caller could easily miss the opportunity to optimize by using hash_uint32 when appropriate. Replace this with a design whereby callers using simple binary-data keys just specify HASH_BLOBS and don't need to mess with specific support functions. hash_create() itself will take care of optimizing when the key size is four bytes. This nets out saving a few hundred bytes of code space, and offers a measurable performance improvement in tidbitmap.c (which was not exploiting the opportunity to use hash_uint32 for its 4-byte keys). There might be some wins elsewhere too, I didn't analyze closely. In future we could look into offering a similar optimized hashing function for 8-byte keys. Under this design that could be done in a centralized and machine-independent fashion, whereas getting it right for keys of platform-dependent sizes would've been notationally painful before. For the moment, the old way still works fine, so as not to break source code compatibility for loadable modules. Eventually we might want to remove tag_hash and friends from the exported API altogether, since there's no real need for them to be explicitly referenced from outside dynahash.c.

* pgindent run for 9.4Bruce Momjian2014-05-06
| | | | | This includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.
* Update copyright for 2014Bruce Momjian2014-01-07
| | | | | Update all files in head, and files COPYRIGHT and legal.sgml in all back branches.
* Update copyrights for 2013Bruce Momjian2013-01-01
| | | | | Fully update git head, and update back branches in ./COPYRIGHT and legal.sgml files.
* remove catcache.h from syscache.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-28
| | | | | Instead, place a forward struct declaration for struct catclist in syscache.h. This reduces header proliferation somewhat.

* Clean up the #include mess a little.Tom Lane2011-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | walsender.h should depend on xlog.h, not vice versa. (Actually, the inclusion was circular until a couple hours ago, which was even sillier; but Bruce broke it in the expedient rather than logically correct direction.) Because of that poor decision, plus blind application of pgrminclude, we had a situation where half the system was depending on xlog.h to include such unrelated stuff as array.h and guc.h. Clean up the header inclusion, and manually revert a lot of what pgrminclude had done so things build again. This episode reinforces my feeling that pgrminclude should not be run without adult supervision. Inclusion changes in header files in particular need to be reviewed with great care. More generally, it'd be good if we had a clearer notion of module layering to dictate which headers can sanely include which others ... but that's a big task for another day.
* Remove unnecessary #include references, per pgrminclude script.Bruce Momjian2011-09-01

* Revise sinval code to remove no-longer-used tuple TID from inval messages.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | This requires adjusting the API for syscache callback functions: they now get a hash value, not a TID, to identify the target tuple. Most of them weren't paying any attention to that argument anyway, but plancache did require a small amount of fixing. Also, improve performance a trifle by avoiding sending duplicate inval messages when a heap_update isn't changing the catcache lookup columns.

* Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas2010-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists, GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code shorter, too. Design and review by Tom Lane.
* Further fixes for per-tablespace options patch.Robert Haas2010-01-07
| | | | | | | Add missing varlena header to TableSpaceOpts structure. And, per Tom Lane, instead of calling tablespace_reloptions in CacheMemoryContext, call it in the caller's memory context and copy the value over afterwards, to reduce the chances of a session-lifetime memory leak.
* Fix spccache.c to not suppose that a cache entry will live across databaseTom Lane2010-01-06

* Support ALTER TABLESPACE name SET/RESET ( tablespace_options ).Robert Haas2010-01-05
This patch only supports seq_page_cost and random_page_cost as parameters, but it provides the infrastructure to scalably support many more. In particular, we may want to add support for effective_io_concurrency, but I'm leaving that as future work for now. Thanks to Tom Lane for design help and Alvaro Herrera for the review.
