* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Add palloc_extended for frontend and backend.Fujii Masao2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | This commit also adds pg_malloc_extended for frontend. These interfaces can be used to control at a lower level memory allocation using an interface similar to MemoryContextAllocExtended. For example, the callers can specify MCXT_ALLOC_NO_OOM if they want to suppress the "out of memory" error while allocating the memory and handle a NULL return value. Michael Paquier, reviewed by me.
* Tweak __attribute__-wrapping macros for better pgindent results.Tom Lane2015-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This improves on commit bbfd7edae5aa5ad5553d3c7e102f2e450d4380d4 by making two simple changes: * pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn(). Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed(). This reduces pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them. * attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not definitions. Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts, which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent but often were outright wrong anyway. (It does little good to put a noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.) In any case, if we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns. I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
* Add macros wrapping all usage of gcc's __attribute__.Andres Freund2015-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now __attribute__() was defined to be empty for all compilers but gcc. That's problematic because it prevents using it in other compilers; which is necessary e.g. for atomics portability. It's also just generally dubious to do so in a header as widely included as c.h. Instead add pg_attribute_format_arg, pg_attribute_printf, pg_attribute_noreturn macros which are implemented in the compilers that understand them. Also add pg_attribute_noreturn and pg_attribute_packed, but don't provide fallbacks, since they can affect functionality. This means that external code that, possibly unwittingly, relied on __attribute__ defined to be empty on !gcc compilers may now run into warnings or errors on those compilers. But there shouldn't be many occurances of that and it's hard to work around... Discussion: 54B58BA3.8040302@ohmu.fi Author: Oskari Saarenmaa, with some minor changes by me.

| | | | Backpatch certain files through 9.0
* 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.
* Don't #include utils/palloc.h in common/fe_memutils.h.Tom Lane2014-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This breaks the principle that common/ ought not depend on anything in the server, not only code-wise but in the headers. The only arguable advantage is avoidance of duplication of half a dozen extern declarations, and even that is rather dubious, considering that the previous coding was wrong about which declarations to duplicate: it exposed pnstrdup() to frontend code even though no such function is provided in fe_memutils.c. On the same principle, don't #include utils/memutils.h in the frontend build of psprintf.c. This requires duplicating the definition of MaxAllocSize, but that seems fine to me: there's no a-priori reason why frontend code should use the same size limit as the backend anyway. In passing, clean up some rather odd layout and ordering choices that were imposed on palloc.h to reduce the number of #ifdefs required by the previous approach. Per gripe from Christoph Berg. There's still more work to do to make include/common/ clean, but this part seems reasonably noncontroversial.

* Create libpgcommon, and move pg_malloc et al to itAlvaro Herrera2013-02-12
libpgcommon is a new static library to allow sharing code among the various frontend programs and backend; this lets us eliminate duplicate implementations of common routines. We avoid libpgport, because that's intended as a place for porting issues; per discussion, it seems better to keep them separate. The first use case, and the only implemented by this patch, is pg_malloc and friends, which many frontend programs were already using. At the same time, we can use this to provide palloc emulation functions for the frontend; this way, some palloc-using files in the backend can also be used by the frontend cleanly. To do this, we change palloc() in the backend to be a function instead of a macro on top of MemoryContextAlloc(). This was previously believed to cause loss of performance, but this implementation has been tweaked by Tom and Andres so that on modern compilers it provides a slight improvement over the previous one. This lets us clean up some places that were already with localized hacks. Most of the pg_malloc/palloc changes in this patch were authored by Andres Freund. Zoltán Böszörményi also independently provided a form of that. libpgcommon infrastructure was authored by Álvaro.
