* Code review for regexp_matches/regexp_split patch. Refactor to avoid assumingTom Lane2007-08-11
| | | | | | | | | that cached compiled patterns will still be there when the function is next called. Clean up looping logic, thereby fixing bug identified by Pavel Stehule. Share setup code between the two functions, add some comments, and avoid risky mixing of int and size_t variables. Clean up the documentation a tad, and accept all the flag characters mentioned in table 9-19 rather than just a subset.

* Revise postmaster startup/shutdown logic to eliminate the problem that aTom Lane2007-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | constant flow of new connection requests could prevent the postmaster from completing a shutdown or crash restart. This is done by labeling child processes that are "dead ends", that is, we know that they were launched only to tell a client that it can't connect. These processes are managed separately so that they don't confuse us into thinking that we can't advance to the next stage of a shutdown or restart sequence, until the very end where we must wait for them to drain out so we can delete the shmem segment. Per discussion of a misbehavior reported by Keaton Adams. Since this code was baroque already, and my first attempt at fixing the problem made it entirely impenetrable, I took the opportunity to rewrite it in a state-machine style. That eliminates some duplicated code sections and hopefully makes everything a bit clearer.
* Fix a gradual memory leak in ExecReScanAgg(). Because the aggregationNeil Conway2007-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | hash table is allocated in a child context of the agg node's memory context, MemoryContextReset() will reset but *not* delete the child context. Since ExecReScanAgg() proceeds to build a new hash table from scratch (in a new sub-context), this results in leaking the header for the previous memory context. Therefore, use MemoryContextResetAndDeleteChildren() instead. Credit: My colleague Sailesh Krishnamurthy at Truviso for isolating the cause of the leak.

* Adjust the output of MemoryContextStats() so that the stats for aNeil Conway2007-08-07

* Tweak for initdb: if more command-line arguments were specified thanNeil Conway2007-08-04

* Fix crash caused by log_timezone patch if we attempt to emit any elog messagesTom Lane2007-08-04
| | | | | | | | | between the setting of log_line_prefix and the setting of log_timezone. We can't realistically set log_timezone any earlier than we do now, so the best behavior seems to be to use GMT zone if any timestamps are to be logged during early startup. Create a dummy zone variable with a minimal definition of GMT (in particular it will never know about leap seconds), so that we can set it up without reference to any external files.
* Fix a problem in my recent patch to initialize cancel_key for autovac workersTom Lane2007-08-04
| | | | | | | | as well as regular backends: if no regular backend launches before the autovac launcher tries to start an autovac worker, the postmaster would get an Assert fault due to calling PostmasterRandom before random_seed was initialized. Cleanest solution seems to be to take the initialization of random_seed out of ServerLoop and let PostmasterRandom do it for itself.
* Switch over to using the src/timezone functions for formatting timestampsTom Lane2007-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | displayed in the postmaster log. This avoids Windows-specific problems with localized time zone names that are in the wrong encoding, and generally seems like a good idea to forestall other potential platform-dependent issues. To preserve the existing behavior that all backends will log in the same time zone, create a new GUC variable log_timezone that can only be changed on a system-wide basis, and reference log-related calculations to that zone instead of the TimeZone variable. This fixes the issue reported by Hiroshi Saito that timestamps printed by xlog.c startup could be improperly localized on Windows. We still need a simpler patch for that problem in the back branches, however.
* Fix some sloppiness in the recent multiple-autovacuum-worker patch. It wasTom Lane2007-08-03
| | | | | | | | not bothering to initialize is_autovacuum for regular backends, meaning there was a significant chance of the postmaster prematurely sending them SIGTERM during database shutdown. Also, leaving the cancel key unset for an autovac worker meant that any client could send it SIGINT, which doesn't sound especially good either.

* Support an optional asynchronous commit mode, in which we don't flush WALTom Lane2007-08-01
| | | | | | before reporting a transaction committed. Data consistency is still guaranteed (unlike setting fsync = off), but a crash may lose the effects of the last few transactions. Patch by Simon, some editorialization by Tom.

* Fix a bug in the original implementation of redundant-join-clause removal:Tom Lane2007-07-31
| | | | | | | | | clauses in which one side or the other references both sides of the join cannot be removed as redundant, because that expression won't have been constrained below the join. Per report from Sergey Burladyan. CVS HEAD does not contain this bug due to EquivalenceClass rewrite, but it seems wise to include the regression test for it anyway.

* Slight refactor for ExecOpenScanRelation(): we can useNeil Conway2007-07-27

* Remove FileUnlink(), which wasn't being used anywhere and interacted poorlyTom Lane2007-07-26
| | | | | | with the recent patch to log temp file sizes at removal time. Doesn't seem worth fixing since it's unused. In passing, make a few elog messages conform to the message style guide.
* Arrange to put TOAST tables belonging to temporary tables into special schemasTom Lane2007-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | named pg_toast_temp_nnn, alongside the pg_temp_nnn schemas used for the temp tables themselves. This allows low-level code such as the relcache to recognize that these tables are indeed temporary, which enables various optimizations such as not WAL-logging changes and using local rather than shared buffers for access. Aside from obvious performance benefits, this provides a solution to bug #3483, in which other backends unexpectedly held open file references to temporary tables. The scheme preserves the property that TOAST tables are not in any schema that's normally in the search path, so they don't conflict with user table names. initdb forced because of changes in system view definitions.

* Implement RETURN QUERY for PL/PgSQL. This provides some convenient syntaxNeil Conway2007-07-25
| | | | | | sugar for PL/PgSQL set-returning functions that want to return the result of evaluating a query; it should also be more efficient than repeated RETURN NEXT statements. Based on an earlier patch from Pavel Stehule.
* Fix predicate-proving logic to cope with binary-compatibility cases whenTom Lane2007-07-24
| | | | | | checking whether an IS NULL/IS NOT NULL clause is implied or refuted by a strict function. Per example from Dawid Kuroczko. Backpatch to 8.2 since this is arguably a performance bug.

* Make it possible, and default, for MingW to build with SSPI supportMagnus Hagander2007-07-24

* Create a new dedicated Postgres process, "wal writer", which exists to writeTom Lane2007-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | and fsync WAL at convenient intervals. For the moment it just tries to offload this work from backends, but soon it will be responsible for guaranteeing a maximum delay before asynchronously-committed transactions will be flushed to disk. This is a portion of Simon Riggs' async-commit patch, committed to CVS separately because a background WAL writer seems like it might be a good idea independently of the async-commit feature. I rebased walwriter.c on bgwriter.c because it seemed like a more appropriate way of handling signals; while the startup/shutdown logic in postmaster.c is more like autovac because we want walwriter to quit before we start the shutdown checkpoint.
* Set a default autovacuum vacuum_cost_delay value of 20ms, to avoid excessiveAlvaro Herrera2007-07-24
| | | | | | | | I/O utilization, per discussion. While at it, lower the autovacuum vacuum and analyze threshold values to 50 tuples. It is a bit higher (i.e. more conservative) than what I originally proposed but much better than the old values for small tables.
* Just noticed that libpq thinks the maximum command tag length is 40,Tom Lane2007-07-23
| | | | | | whereas in the backend it's been 64 for some time. Hasn't mattered because no actual tags exceed 40 bytes, but for consistency they should be alike.

* Fix elog.c to avoid infinite recursion (leading to backend crash) whenTom Lane2007-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | log_min_error_statement is active and there is some problem in logging the current query string; for example, that it's too long to include in the log message without running out of memory. This problem has existed since the log_min_error_statement feature was introduced. No doubt the reason it wasn't detected long ago is that 8.2 is the first release that defaults log_min_error_statement to less than PANIC level. Per report from Bill Moran.

* Fix WAL replay of truncate operations to cope with the possibility that theTom Lane2007-07-20
| | | | | | | | | truncated relation was deleted later in the WAL sequence. Since replay normally auto-creates a relation upon its first reference by a WAL log entry, failure is seen only if the truncate entry happens to be the first reference after the checkpoint we're restarting from; which is a pretty unusual case but of course not impossible. Fix by making truncate entries auto-create like the other ones do. Per report and test case from Dharmendra Goyal.
