* Fix duplicate call to WRITE_NODE_FIELD(whereClause) in _outSelectStmtTatsuo Ishii2005-05-09

* Add some defenses against functions declared to return set that don'tTom Lane2005-05-09
| | | | actually follow the protocol; per example from Kris Jurka.
* Complete the following TODO items:Neil Conway2005-05-09
| | | | | | | | | * Add session start time to pg_stat_activity * Add the client IP address and port to pg_stat_activity Original patch from Magnus Hagander, code review by Neil Conway. Catalog version bumped. This patch sends the client IP address and port number in every statistics message; that's not ideal, but will be fixed up shortly.
* Repair very-low-probability race condition between relation extensionTom Lane2005-05-07
| | | | | | | | and VACUUM: in the interval between adding a new page to the relation and formatting it, it was possible for VACUUM to come along and decide it should format the page too. Though not harmful in itself, this would cause data loss if a third transaction were able to insert tuples into the vacuumed page before the original extender got control back.
* Adjust time qual checking code so that we always check TransactionIdIsInProgressTom Lane2005-05-07
| | | | | | | before we check commit/abort status. Formerly this was done in some paths but not all, with the result that a transaction might be considered committed for some purposes before it became committed for others. Per example found by Jan Wieck.
* Fix case in which a debug printout would print already-pfreed data.Tom Lane2005-05-07

* Add comment on C locale test for upper/lower/initcap().Bruce Momjian2005-05-07

* Add COPY WITH CVS HEADER to allow a heading line as the first line inBruce Momjian2005-05-07
| | | | | | COPY. Andrew Dunstan
* For some reason access/tupmacs.h has been #including utils/memutils.h,Tom Lane2005-05-06
| | | | | | | which is neither needed by nor related to that header. Remove the bogus inclusion and instead include the header in those C files that actually need it. Also fix unnecessary inclusions and bad inclusion order in tsearch2 files.
* Update comment to mention "Name classification hierarchy" as place toBruce Momjian2005-05-06
| | | | check for reserved words.
* Convert some mulit-line comments in copy.c to single line, as appropriate.Bruce Momjian2005-05-06
|
* Marginal performance improvements in dynahash: make sure that everythingTom Lane2005-05-06
| | | | | | associated with a hashtable is allocated in that hashtable's private context, so that hash_destroy only has to destroy the context and not do any retail pfree's; and tighten the inner loop of hash_seq_search.
* Fix bogus hashtable setup. (This code has quite a few other problemsTom Lane2005-05-05
| | | | too, but that one is in my way at the moment.)
* Make standalone backends ignore pg_database.datallowconn, so that thereTom Lane2005-05-05
| | | | is a way to recover from disabling connections to all databases at once.
* Adjust nodeBitmapIndexscan to keep the target index opened from planTom Lane2005-05-05
| | | | | | | | | startup to end, rather than re-opening it in each MultiExecBitmapIndexScan call. I had foolishly thought that opening/closing wouldn't be much more expensive than a rescan call, but that was sheer brain fade. This seems to fix about half of the performance lossage reported by Sergey Koposov. I'm still not sure where the other half went.
* Allow implicit cast from any named composite type to RECORD. At theTom Lane2005-05-05
| | | | | | | moment this has no particular use except to allow table rows to be passed to record_out(), but that case seems to be useful in itself per recent example from Elein. Further down the road we could look at letting PL functions be declared to accept RECORD parameters.
* Clean up MultiXactIdExpand's API by separating out the case where weTom Lane2005-05-03
| | | | | are creating a new MultiXactId from two regular XIDs. The original coding was unnecessarily complicated and didn't save any code anyway.
* Alter the signature for encoding conversion functions to declare theTom Lane2005-05-03
| | | | | | output area as INTERNAL not CSTRING. This is to prevent people from calling the functions by hand. This is a permanent solution for the back branches but I hope it is just a stopgap for HEAD.
* Change tsearch2 to not use the unsafe practice of creating functionsTom Lane2005-05-03
| | | | | | | | that return INTERNAL without also having INTERNAL arguments. Since the functions in question aren't meant to be called by hand anyway, I just redeclared them to take 'internal' instead of 'text'. Also add code to ProcedureCreate() to enforce the restriction, as I should have done to start with :-(
* Check the file system on postmaster startup and report any unreferencedBruce Momjian2005-05-02
| | | | | | files in the server log. Heikki Linnakangas
* Change SPI functions to use a `long' when specifying the number of tuplesNeil Conway2005-05-02
| | | | | | | | to produce when running the executor. This is consistent with the internal executor APIs (such as ExecutorRun), which also use a long for this purpose. It also allows FETCH_ALL to be passed -- since FETCH_ALL is defined as LONG_MAX, this wouldn't have worked on platforms where int and long are of different sizes. Per report from Tzahi Fadida.
* 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.
* Use the standard lock manager to establish priority order when thereTom Lane2005-04-30
| | | | | | is contention for a tuple-level lock. This solves the problem of a would-be exclusive locker being starved out by an indefinite succession of share-lockers. Per recent discussion with Alvaro.
* 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.
* Implement sharable row-level locks, and use them for foreign key referencesTom Lane2005-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | to eliminate unnecessary deadlocks. This commit adds SELECT ... FOR SHARE paralleling SELECT ... FOR UPDATE. The implementation uses a new SLRU data structure (managed much like pg_subtrans) to represent multiple- transaction-ID sets. When more than one transaction is holding a shared lock on a particular row, we create a MultiXactId representing that set of transactions and store its ID in the row's XMAX. This scheme allows an effectively unlimited number of row locks, just as we did before, while not costing any extra overhead except when a shared lock actually has to be shared. Still TODO: use the regular lock manager to control the grant order when multiple backends are waiting for a row lock. Alvaro Herrera and Tom Lane.
* On further experimentation, there were still a couple of bugs inTom Lane2005-04-25
| | | | ExpandIndirectionStar() ... and in markTargetListOrigin() too.
* Fix ExpandIndirectionStar to handle cases where the expression to beTom Lane2005-04-25
| | | | | | expanded is of RECORD type, eg 'select (foo).* from (select foo(f1) from t1) ss' where foo() is a function declared with multiple OUT parameters.
* get_expr_result_type probably needs to be able to handle OpExpr as wellTom Lane2005-04-25
| | | | | as FuncExpr, to cover cases where a function returning tuple is invoked via an operator.
* Avoid rechecking lossy operators twice in a bitmap scan plan.Tom Lane2005-04-25
|
* While determining the filter clauses for an index scan (either plainTom Lane2005-04-25
| | | | | | or bitmap), use pred_test to be a little smarter about cases where a filter clause is logically unnecessary. This may be overkill for the plain indexscan case, but it's definitely useful for OR'd bitmap scans.
* Replace slightly klugy create_bitmap_restriction() function with aTom Lane2005-04-25
| | | | | more efficient routine in restrictinfo.c (which can make use of make_restrictinfo_internal).
* Remove support for OR'd indexscans internal to a single IndexScan planTom Lane2005-04-25
| | | | | | | | node, as this behavior is now better done as a bitmap OR indexscan. This allows considerable simplification in nodeIndexscan.c itself as well as several planner modules concerned with indexscan plan generation. Also we can improve the sharing of code between regular and bitmap indexscans, since they are now working with nigh-identical Plan nodes.
* Adjust nodeBitmapIndexscan.c to not keep the index open across calls,Tom Lane2005-04-24
| | | | | | | | but just to open and close it during MultiExecBitmapIndexScan. This avoids acquiring duplicate resources (eg, multiple locks on the same relation) in a tree with many bitmap scans. Also, don't bother to lock the parent heap at all here, since we must be underneath a BitmapHeapScan node that will be holding a suitable lock.
* Actually, nodeBitmapIndexscan.c doesn't need to create a standardTom Lane2005-04-24
| | | | ExprContext at all, since it never evaluates any qual or tlist expressions.
* Put back example of using Result node to execute an INSERT.Tom Lane2005-04-24
|
* Update some comments to use SQL examples rather than QUEL. From SimonNeil Conway2005-04-24
| | | | Riggs.
* Update VACUUM VERBOSE FSM message, per Tom.Bruce Momjian2005-04-24
|
* Repair two TIME WITH TIME ZONE bugs found by Dennis Vshivkov. ComparisonTom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | | | | of timetz values misbehaved in --enable-integer-datetime cases, and EXTRACT(EPOCH) subtracted the zone instead of adding it in all cases. Backpatch to all supported releases (except --enable-integer-datetime code does not exist in 7.2).
* Remove useless argtype_inherit() code, and make consequent simplifications.Tom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | | | | | | As I pointed out a few days ago, this code has failed to do anything useful for some time ... and if we did want to revive the capability to select functions by nearness of inheritance ancestry, this is the wrong place and way to do it anyway. The knowledge would need to go into func_select_candidate() instead. Perhaps someday someone will be motivated to do that, but I am not today.
* Remove explicit FreeExprContext calls during plan node shutdown. TheTom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | ExprContexts will be freed anyway when FreeExecutorState() is reached, and letting that routine do the work is more efficient because it will automatically free the ExprContexts in reverse creation order. The existing coding was effectively freeing them in exactly the worst possible order, resulting in O(N^2) behavior inside list_delete_ptr, which becomes highly visible in cases with a few thousand plan nodes. ExecFreeExprContext is now effectively a no-op and could be removed, but I left it in place in case we ever want to put it back to use.
* Update VACUUM VERBOSE update, per Alvaro.Bruce Momjian2005-04-23

* Update working of VACUUM VERBOSE.Bruce Momjian2005-04-23
|
* Make VACUUM VERBOSE FSM output all output in a single INFO outputBruce Momjian2005-04-23
| | | | statement.
* Add comment about checkpoint panic behavior during shutdown, perTom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | suggestion from Qingqing Zhou.
* Allow -2147483648 to be treated as an INT4 rather than INT8 constant.Tom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | Per discussion with Paul Edwards.
* Recent changes got the sense of the notnull bit backwards in the 2.0Tom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | protocol output routines. Mea culpa :-(. Per report from Kris Jurka.
* Define the right-hand input of AT TIME ZONE as a full a_expr instead ofTom Lane2005-04-23
| | | | | | | | c_expr. Perhaps the restriction was once needed to avoid bison errors, but it seems to work just fine now --- and even generates a slightly smaller state machine. This change allows examples like SELECT '13:45'::timetz AT TIME ZONE '-07:00'::interval; to work without parentheses around the right-hand input.
* Modify output of VACUUM VERBOSE to be clearer.Bruce Momjian2005-04-23
