* Fix an Assert that turns out to be reachable after all.Tom Lane2012-04-09
| | | | | | | | | estimate_num_groups() gets unhappy with create table empty(); select * from empty except select * from empty e2; I can't see any actual use-case for such a query (and the table is illegal per SQL spec), but it seems like a good idea that it not cause an assert failure.
* Don't bother copying empty support arrays in a zero-column MergeJoin.Tom Lane2012-04-09
| | | | | | | | The case could not arise when this code was originally written, but it can now (since we made zero-column MergeJoins work for the benefit of FULL JOIN ON TRUE). I don't think there is any actual bug here, but we might as well treat it consistently with other uses of COPY_POINTER_FIELD(). Per comment from Ashutosh Bapat.
* Teach SLRU code to avoid replacing I/O-busy pages.Robert Haas2012-04-08
| | | | Patch by me; review by Tom Lane and others.
* set_stack_base() no longer needs to be called in PostgresMain.Heikki Linnakangas2012-04-08
| | | | | | This was a thinko in previous commit. Now that stack base pointer is now set in PostmasterMain and SubPostmasterMain, it doesn't need to be set in PostgresMain anymore.
* Do stack-depth checking in all postmaster children.Heikki Linnakangas2012-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We used to only initialize the stack base pointer when starting up a regular backend, not in other processes. In particular, autovacuum workers can run arbitrary user code, and without stack-depth checking, infinite recursion in e.g an index expression will bring down the whole cluster. The comment about PL/Java using set_stack_base() is not yet true. As the code stands, PL/java still modifies the stack_base_ptr variable directly. However, it's been discussed in the PL/Java mailing list that it should be changed to use the function, because PL/Java is currently oblivious to the register stack used on Itanium. There's another issues with PL/Java, namely that the stack base pointer it sets is not really the base of the stack, it could be something close to the bottom of the stack. That's a separate issue that might need some further changes to this code, but that's a different story. Backpatch to all supported releases.

* Fix misleading output from gin_desc().Tom Lane2012-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | XLOG_GIN_UPDATE_META_PAGE and XLOG_GIN_DELETE_LISTPAGE records were printed with a list link field labeled as "blkno", which was confusing, especially when the link was empty (InvalidBlockNumber). Print the metapage block number instead, since that's what's actually being updated. We could include the link values too as a separate field, but not clear it's worth the trouble. Back-patch to 8.4 where the dubious code was added.
* Fix broken comparetup_datum code.Tom Lane2012-04-06
| | | | | | | | Commit 337b6f5ecf05b21b5e997986884d097d60e4e3d0 contained the entirely fanciful assumption that it had made comparetup_datum unreachable. Reported and patched by Takashi Yamamoto. Fix up some not terribly accurate/useful comments from that commit, too.
* Dept of second thoughts: improve the API for AnalyzeForeignTable.Tom Lane2012-04-06
| | | | | | | If we make the initially-called function return the table physical-size estimate, acquire_inherited_sample_rows will be able to use that to allocate numbers of samples among child tables, when the day comes that we want to support foreign tables in inheritance trees.
* Allow statistics to be collected for foreign tables.Tom Lane2012-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | ANALYZE now accepts foreign tables and allows the table's FDW to control how the sample rows are collected. (But only manual ANALYZEs will touch foreign tables, for the moment, since among other things it's not very clear how to handle remote permissions checks in an auto-analyze.) contrib/file_fdw is extended to support this. Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Shigeru Hanada, some further tweaking by me.

* NLS: Use msgmerge/xgettext --no-wrap and --sort-by-filePeter Eisentraut2012-04-05
| | | | | | The option --no-wrap prevents wars with (most?) editors about proper line wrapping. --sort-by-file ensures consistent file order, for easier diffing.
* Publish checkpoint timing information to pg_stat_bgwriter.Robert Haas2012-04-05
| | | | Greg Smith, Peter Geoghegan, and Robert Haas
* Update obsolete comment.Tom Lane2012-04-05
| | | | | | | | Somebody didn't bother to fix this comment while adding foreign table support to the code below it. In passing, remove the explicit calling-out of relkind letters, which adds complexity to the comment but doesn't help in understanding the code.
* Expose track_iotiming data via the statistics collector.Robert Haas2012-04-05
| | | | | | Ants Aasma's original patch to add timing information for buffer I/O requests exposed this data at the relation level, which was judged too costly. I've here exposed it at the database level instead.
* Fix plpgsql named-cursor-parameter feature for variable name conflicts.Tom Lane2012-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | The parser got confused if a cursor parameter had the same name as a plpgsql variable. Reported and diagnosed by Yeb Havinga, though this isn't exactly his proposed fix. Also, some mostly-but-not-entirely-cosmetic adjustments to the original named-cursor-parameter patch, for code readability and better error diagnostics.
* Add a "row processor" API to libpq for better handling of large results.Tom Lane2012-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | Traditionally libpq has collected an entire query result before passing it back to the application. That provides a simple and transactional API, but it's pretty inefficient for large result sets. This patch allows the application to process each row on-the-fly instead of accumulating the rows into the PGresult. Error recovery becomes a bit more complex, but often that tradeoff is well worth making. Kyotaro Horiguchi, reviewed by Marko Kreen and Tom Lane
* Remove useless PGRES_COPY_BOTH "support" in psql.Tom Lane2012-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | There is no existing or foreseeable case in which psql should see a PGRES_COPY_BOTH PQresultStatus; and if such a case ever emerges, it's a pretty good bet that these code fragments wouldn't do the right thing anyway. Remove them, and let the existing default cases do the appropriate thing, namely emit an "unexpected PQresultStatus" bleat. Noted while working on libpq row processor patch, for which I was considering adding a PGRES_SUSPENDED status code --- the same default-case treatment would be appropriate for that.
* Fix syslogger to not lose log coherency under high load.Tom Lane2012-04-04
| | | | | | | | | The original coding of the syslogger had an arbitrary limit of 20 large messages concurrently in progress, after which it would just punt and dump message fragments to the output file separately. Our ambitions are a bit higher than that now, so allow the data structure to expand as necessary. Reported and patched by Andrew Dunstan; some editing by Tom
* Arrange for on_exit_nicely to be thread-safe.Robert Haas2012-04-03
| | | | | Extracted from Joachim Wieland's parallel pg_dump patch, with some additional comments by me.

* NLS: Seed Language field in PO headerPeter Eisentraut2012-04-02
| | | | | Use msgmerge --lang option to seed the Language field, recently introduced by gettext, in the header of the new PO file.

* Fix O(N^2) behavior in pg_dump when many objects are in dependency loops.Tom Lane2012-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Combining the loop workspace with the record of already-processed objects might have been a cute trick, but it behaves horridly if there are many dependency loops to repair: the time spent in the first step of findLoop() grows as O(N^2). Instead use a separate flag array indexed by dump ID, which we can check in constant time. The length of the workspace array is now never more than the actual length of a dependency chain, which should be reasonably short in all cases of practical interest. The code is noticeably easier to understand this way, too. Per gripe from Mike Roest. Since this is a longstanding performance bug, backpatch to all supported versions.
* Fix O(N^2) behavior in pg_dump for large numbers of owned sequences.Tom Lane2012-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | The loop that matched owned sequences to their owning tables required time proportional to number of owned sequences times number of tables; although this work was only expended in selective-dump situations, which is probably why the issue wasn't recognized long since. Refactor slightly so that we can perform this work after the index array for findTableByOid has been set up, reducing the time to O(M log N). Per gripe from Mike Roest. Since this is a longstanding performance bug, backpatch to all supported versions.
* Rename frontend keyword arrays to avoid conflict with backend.Tom Lane2012-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ecpg and pg_dump each contain keyword arrays with structure similar to the backend's keyword array. Up to now, we actually named those arrays the same as the backend's and relied on parser/keywords.h to declare them. This seems a tad too cute, though, and it breaks now that we need to PGDLLIMPORT-decorate the backend symbols. Rename to avoid the problem. Per buildfarm. (It strikes me that maybe we should get rid of the separate keywords.c files altogether, and just define these arrays in the modules that use them, but that's a rather more invasive change.)
* Fix glitch recently introduced in psql tab completion.Tom Lane2012-03-31
| | | | | | Over-optimization (by me, looks like :-() broke the case of recognizing a word boundary just before a quoted identifier. Reported and diagnosed by Dean Rasheed.
* Add PGDLLIMPORT to ScanKeywords and NumScanKeywords.Tom Lane2012-03-31
| | | | Per buildfarm, this is now needed by contrib/pg_stat_statements.
* Add new files to NLS file listsPeter Eisentraut2012-03-30
| | | | | | Some of these are newly added, some are older and were forgotten, some don't contain any translatable strings right now but look like they could in the future.
* Replace printf format %i by %dPeter Eisentraut2012-03-30

* pgxs: Supply default values for BISON and FLEX variablesPeter Eisentraut2012-03-30
| | | | | | Otherwise, the availability of these variables depends on what happened to be available at the time the PostgreSQL build was configured.
* initdb: Mark more messages for translationPeter Eisentraut2012-03-29
| | | | | | | Some Windows-only messages had apparently been forgotten so far. Also make the wording of the messages more consistent with similar messages other parts, such as pg_ctl and pg_regress.
* Correct epoch of txid_current() when executed on a Hot Standby server.Simon Riggs2012-03-29
| | | | | | | | | Initialise ckptXidEpoch from starting checkpoint and maintain the correct value as we roll forwards. This allows GetNextXidAndEpoch() to return the correct epoch when executed during recovery. Backpatch to 9.0 when the problem is first observable by a user. Bug report from Daniel Farina
* Unbreak Windows builds broken by pgpipe removal.Andrew Dunstan2012-03-29

* Inherit max_safe_fds to child processes in EXEC_BACKEND mode.Heikki Linnakangas2012-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Postmaster sets max_safe_fds by testing how many open file descriptors it can open, and that is normally inherited by all child processes at fork(). Not so on EXEC_BACKEND, ie. Windows, however. Because of that, we effectively ignored max_files_per_process on Windows, and always assumed a conservative default of 32 simultaneous open files. That could have an impact on performance, if you need to access a lot of different files in a query. After this patch, the value is passed to child processes by save/restore_backend_variables() among many other global variables. It has been like this forever, but given the lack of complaints about it, I'm not backpatching this.

* Run maintainer-check on all PO files, not only configured onesPeter Eisentraut2012-03-28
| | | | | | The intent is to allow configure --enable-nls=xx for installation speed and size, but have maintainer-check check all source files regardless.

* Bend parse location rules for the convenience of pg_stat_statements.Tom Lane2012-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Generally, the parse location assigned to a multiple-token construct is the location of its leftmost token. This commit breaks that rule for the syntaxes TYPENAME 'LITERAL' and CAST(CONSTANT AS TYPENAME) --- the resulting Const will have the location of the literal string, not the typename or CAST keyword. The cases where this matters are pretty thin on the ground (no error messages in the regression tests change, for example), and it's unlikely that any user would be confused anyway by an error cursor pointing at the literal. But still it's less than consistent. The reason for changing it is that contrib/pg_stat_statements wants to know the parse location of the original literal, and it was agreed that this is the least unpleasant way to preserve that information through parse analysis. Peter Geoghegan
* Add some infrastructure for contrib/pg_stat_statements.Tom Lane2012-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a queryId field to Query and PlannedStmt. This is not used by the core backend, except for being copied around at appropriate times. It's meant to allow plug-ins to track a particular query forward from parse analysis to execution. The queryId is intentionally not dumped into stored rules (and hence this commit doesn't bump catversion). You could argue that choice either way, but it seems better that stored rule strings not have any dependency on plug-ins that might or might not be present. Also, add a post_parse_analyze_hook that gets invoked at the end of parse analysis (but only for top-level analysis of complete queries, not cases such as analyzing a domain's default-value expression). This is mainly meant to be used to compute and assign a queryId, but it could have other applications. Peter Geoghegan
* New GUC, track_iotiming, to track I/O timings.Robert Haas2012-03-27
| | | | | | | | Currently, the only way to see the numbers this gathers is via EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS), but the plan is to add visibility through the stats collector and pg_stat_statements in subsequent patches. Ants Aasma, reviewed by Greg Smith, with some further changes by me.
