* 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.

* Update comments concerning PGC_S_TEST.Tom Lane2013-09-03
| | | | | | | | This GUC context value was once only used by ALTER DATABASE SET and ALTER USER SET. That's not true anymore, though, so rewrite the comments to be a bit more general. Patch in HEAD only, since this is just an internal documentation issue.
* Use an MVCC snapshot, rather than SnapshotNow, for catalog scans.Robert Haas2013-07-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SnapshotNow scans have the undesirable property that, in the face of concurrent updates, the scan can fail to see either the old or the new versions of the row. In many cases, we work around this by requiring DDL operations to hold AccessExclusiveLock on the object being modified; in some cases, the existing locking is inadequate and random failures occur as a result. This commit doesn't change anything related to locking, but will hopefully pave the way to allowing lock strength reductions in the future. The major issue has held us back from making this change in the past is that taking an MVCC snapshot is significantly more expensive than using a static special snapshot such as SnapshotNow. However, testing of various worst-case scenarios reveals that this problem is not severe except under fairly extreme workloads. To mitigate those problems, we avoid retaking the MVCC snapshot for each new scan; instead, we take a new snapshot only when invalidation messages have been processed. The catcache machinery already requires that invalidation messages be sent before releasing the related heavyweight lock; else other backends might rely on locally-cached data rather than scanning the catalog at all. Thus, making snapshot reuse dependent on the same guarantees shouldn't break anything that wasn't already subtly broken. Patch by me. Review by Michael Paquier and Andres Freund.

* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.
* 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.

* Accept a non-existent value in "ALTER USER/DATABASE SET ..." command.Heikki Linnakangas2012-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When default_text_search_config, default_tablespace, or temp_tablespaces setting is set per-user or per-database, with an "ALTER USER/DATABASE SET ..." statement, don't throw an error if the text search configuration or tablespace does not exist. In case of text search configuration, even if it doesn't exist in the current database, it might exist in another database, where the setting is intended to have its effect. This behavior is now the same as search_path's. Tablespaces are cluster-wide, so the same argument doesn't hold for tablespaces, but there's a problem with pg_dumpall: it dumps "ALTER USER SET ..." statements before the "CREATE TABLESPACE" statements. Arguably that's pg_dumpall's fault - it should dump the statements in such an order that the tablespace is created first and then the "ALTER USER SET default_tablespace ..." statements after that - but it seems better to be consistent with search_path and default_text_search_config anyway. Besides, you could still create a dump that throws an error, by creating the tablespace, running "ALTER USER SET default_tablespace", then dropping the tablespace and running pg_dumpall on that. Backpatch to all supported versions.

* 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.

* Revise the API for GUC variable assign hooks.Tom Lane2011-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous functions of assign hooks are now split between check hooks and assign hooks, where the former can fail but the latter shouldn't. Aside from being conceptually clearer, this approach exposes the "canonicalized" form of the variable value to guc.c without having to do an actual assignment. And that lets us fix the problem recently noted by Bernd Helmle that the auto-tune patch for wal_buffers resulted in bogus log messages about "parameter "wal_buffers" cannot be changed without restarting the server". There may be some speed advantage too, because this design lets hook functions avoid re-parsing variable values when restoring a previous state after a rollback (they can store a pre-parsed representation of the value instead). This patch also resolves a longstanding annoyance about custom error messages from variable assign hooks: they should modify, not appear separately from, guc.c's own message about "invalid parameter value".

* Standardize get_whatever_oid functions for other object types.Robert Haas2010-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Rename TSParserGetPrsid to get_ts_parser_oid. - Rename TSDictionaryGetDictid to get_ts_dict_oid. - Rename TSTemplateGetTmplid to get_ts_template_oid. - Rename TSConfigGetCfgid to get_ts_config_oid. - Rename FindConversionByName to get_conversion_oid. - Rename GetConstraintName to get_constraint_oid. - Add new functions get_opclass_oid, get_opfamily_oid, get_rewrite_oid, get_rewrite_oid_without_relid, get_trigger_oid, and get_cast_oid. The name of each function matches the corresponding catalog. Thanks to KaiGai Kohei for the review.
* 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.

* Remove a couple of unnecessary calls of CreateCacheMemoryContext. TheseTom Lane2009-12-27
| | | | | | | probably got there via blind copy-and-paste from one of the legitimate callers, so rearrange and comment that code a bit to make it clearer that this isn't a necessary prerequisite to hash_create. Per observation from Robert Haas.

* Improve the plan cache invalidation mechanism to make it invalidate plansTom Lane2008-09-09
| | | | | | | | | when user-defined functions used in a plan are modified. Also invalidate plans when schemas, operators, or operator classes are modified; but for these cases we just invalidate everything rather than tracking exact dependencies, since these types of objects seldom change in a production database. Tom Lane; loosely based on a patch by Martin Pihlak.
* Create new routines systable_beginscan_ordered, systable_getnext_ordered,Tom Lane2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | systable_endscan_ordered that have API similar to systable_beginscan etc (in particular, the passed-in scankeys have heap not index attnums), but guarantee ordered output, unlike the existing functions. For the moment these are just very thin wrappers around index_beginscan/index_getnext/etc. Someday they might need to get smarter; but for now this is just a code refactoring exercise to reduce the number of direct callers of index_getnext, in preparation for changing that function's API. In passing, remove index_getnext_indexitem, which has been dead code for quite some time, and will have even less use than that in the presence of run-time-lossy indexes.

| | | | | | | | | | | and in passing, fix some bogosities dating from the custom_variable_classes patch. Fix guc-file.l to correctly check changes in custom_variable_classes that are attempted concurrently with additions/removals of custom variables, and don't allow the new setting to be applied in advance of checking it. Clean up messy and undocumented situation for string variables with NULL boot_val. Fix DefineCustomVariable functions to initialize boot_val correctly. Prevent find_option from inserting bogus placeholders for custom variables that are simply inquired about rather than being set.
* Simplify the syntax of CREATE/ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY by treating theTom Lane2007-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | init options of the template as top-level options in the syntax. This also makes ALTER a bit easier to use, since options can be replaced individually. I also made these statements verify that the tmplinit method will accept the new settings before they get stored; in the original coding you didn't find out about mistakes until the dictionary got invoked. Under the hood, init methods now get options as a List of DefElem instead of a raw text string --- that lets tsearch use existing options-pushing code instead of duplicating functionality.
* Tsearch2 functionality migrates to core. The bulk of this work is byTom Lane2007-08-21
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing, so anything that's broken is probably my fault. Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can get some portability testing done.
