* Set progname early in the postmaster/postgres binary, rather than doingBruce Momjian2006-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | it later. This fixes a problem where EXEC_BACKEND didn't have progname set, causing a segfault if log_min_messages was set below debug2 and our own snprintf.c was being used. Also alway strdup() progname. Backpatch to 8.1.X and 8.0.X.

* Restructure planner's handling of inheritance. Rather than processingTom Lane2006-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | inheritance trees on-the-fly, which pretty well constrained us to considering only one way of planning inheritance, expand inheritance sets during the planner prep phase, and build a side data structure that can be consulted later to find which RTEs are members of which inheritance sets. As proof of concept, use the data structure to plan joins against inheritance sets more efficiently: we can now use indexes on the set members in inner-indexscan joins. (The generated plans could be improved further, but it'll take some executor changes.) This data structure will also support handling UNION ALL subqueries in the same way as inheritance sets, but that aspect of it isn't finished yet.
* Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE bug: it sometimes tried to drop UNIQUE or PRIMARY KEYTom Lane2006-01-30
| | | | | constraints before FOREIGN KEY constraints that depended on them. Originally reported by Neil Conway on 29-Jun-2005. Patch by Nakano Yoshihisa.
* When building a bitmap scan, must copy the bitmapqualorig expression treeTom Lane2006-01-29
| | | | | | | | to avoid sharing substructure with the lower-level indexquals. This is currently only an issue if there are SubPlans in the indexquals, which is uncommon but not impossible --- see bug #2218 reported by Nicholas Vinen. We use the same kluge for indexqual vs indexqualorig in the index scans themselves ... would be nice to clean this up someday.
* Fix Assert that's no longer correct now that RowCompareExpr is indexable.Tom Lane2006-01-29
|
* Fix code that checks to see if an index can be considered to match the query'sTom Lane2006-01-29
| | | | | | | | | requested sort order. It was assuming that build_index_pathkeys always generates a pathkey per index column, which was not true if implied equality deduction had determined that two index columns were effectively equated to each other. Simplest fix seems to be to install an option that causes build_index_pathkeys to support this behavior as well as the original one. Per report from Brian Hirt.
* Undo perl's nasty locale setting on Windows. Since we can't do that asAndrew Dunstan2006-01-28
| | | | | elsewhere by setting the environment appropriately, we make perl do it right after interpreter startup by calling its POSIX::setlocale().
* Per a bug report from Theo Schlossnagle, plperl_return_next() leaksNeil Conway2006-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | memory in the executor's per-query memory context. It also inefficient: it invokes get_call_result_type() and TupleDescGetAttInMetadata() for every call to return_next, rather than invoking them once (per PL/Perl function call) and memoizing the result. This patch makes the following changes: - refactor the code to include all the "per PL/Perl function call" data inside a single struct, "current_call_data". This means we don't need to save and restore N pointers for every recursive call into PL/Perl, we can just save and restore one. - lookup the return type metadata needed by plperl_return_next() once, and then stash it in "current_call_data", so as to avoid doing the lookup for every call to return_next. - create a temporary memory context in which to evaluate the return type's input functions. This memory context is reset for each call to return_next. The patch appears to fix the memory leak, and substantially reduces the overhead imposed by return_next.
* Tweak initdb to reduce verbosity of progress messages, by printing justTom Lane2006-01-27
| | | | | | | one 'creating subdirectories' message instead of one per subdirectory. The original decision to print something for each subdirectory was made when there were only one or two of 'em; we have way too many now. Per discussion.

* Fix display of whole-row Var appearing at the top level of a SELECT list.Tom Lane2006-01-26
| | | | | | | | While we normally prefer the notation "foo.*" for a whole-row Var, that does not work at SELECT top level, because in that context the parser will assume that what is wanted is to expand the "*" into a list of separate target columns, yielding behavior different from a whole-row Var. We have to emit just "foo" instead in that context. Per report from Sokolov Yura.
* Clean up the INET-vs-CIDR situation. Get rid of the internal is_cidr flagTom Lane2006-01-26
| | | | | | | | and rely exclusively on the SQL type system to tell the difference between the types. Prevent creation of invalid CIDR values via casting from INET or set_masklen() --- both of these operations now silently zero any bits to the right of the netmask. Remove duplicate CIDR comparison operators, letting the type rely on the INET operators instead.
* Remove the no-longer-useful HashItem/HashItemData level of structure.Tom Lane2006-01-25
| | | | Same motivation as for BTItem.
* Remove the no-longer-useful BTItem/BTItemData level of structure, andTom Lane2006-01-25
| | | | | | | just refer to btree index entries as plain IndexTuples, which is what they have been for a very long time. This is mostly just an exercise in removing extraneous notation, but it does save a palloc/pfree cycle per index insertion.
* Remove unnecessary PQconsumeInput call from PQputCopyData; it's redundantTom Lane2006-01-25
| | | | | | | because pqSendSome will absorb input data anytime it'd be forced to block. Avoiding a kernel call per PQputCopyData call helps COPY speed materially. Alon Goldshuv

* Instead of using a numberOfRequiredKeys count to distinguish requiredTom Lane2006-01-23
| | | | | | | | | and non-required keys in a btree index scan, mark the required scankeys with private flag bits SK_BT_REQFWD and/or SK_BT_REQBKWD. This seems at least marginally clearer to me, and it eliminates a wired-into-the- data-structure assumption that required keys are consecutive. Even though that assumption will remain true for the foreseeable future, having it in there makes the code seem more complex than necessary.

* Fix alias-for-target-table-of-UPDATE-or-DELETE patch so that alias canTom Lane2006-01-22

* Allow an optional alias for the target table to be specified for UPDATENeil Conway2006-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | and DELETE. If specified, the alias must be used instead of the full table name. Also, the alias currently cannot be used in the SET clause of UPDATE. Patch from Atsushi Ogawa, various editorialization by Neil Conway. Along the way, make the rowtypes regression test pass if add_missing_from is enabled, and add a new (skeletal) regression test for DELETE.
* Repair longstanding bug in slru/clog logic: it is possible for two backendsTom Lane2006-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | to try to create a log segment file concurrently, but the code erroneously specified O_EXCL to open(), resulting in a needless failure. Before 7.4, it was even a PANIC condition :-(. Correct code is actually simpler than what we had, because we can just say O_CREAT to start with and not need a second open() call. I believe this accounts for several recent reports of hard-to-reproduce "could not create file ...: File exists" errors in both pg_clog and pg_subtrans.
* Add GRANT ON SEQUENCE syntax to support sequence-only permissions.Bruce Momjian2006-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Continue to support GRANT ON [TABLE] for sequences for backward compatibility; issue warning for invalid sequence permissions. [Backward compatibility warning message.] Add USAGE permission for sequences that allows only currval() and nextval(), not setval(). Mention object name in grant/revoke warnings because of possible multi-object operations.
* Fix thinko in autovacuum's test to skip temp tables: want to skip anyTom Lane2006-01-20
| | | | | | temp table not only our own process' tables. It's not real important since vacuum.c will skip temp tables anyway, but might as well make the code do what it claims to do.

* Avoid crashing if relcache flush occurs while trying to load data into anTom Lane2006-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | index's support-function cache (in index_getprocinfo). Since none of that data can change for an index that's in active use, it seems sufficient to treat all open indexes the same way we were treating "nailed" system indexes --- that is, just re-read the pg_class row and leave the rest of the relcache entry strictly alone. The pg_class re-read might not be strictly necessary either, but since the reltablespace and relfilenode can change in normal operation it seems safest to do it. (We don't support changing any of the other info about an index at all, at the moment.) Back-patch as far as 8.0. It might be possible to adapt the patch to 7.4, but it would take more work than I care to expend for such a low-probability problem. 7.3 is out of luck for sure.
* Fix pgxs -L library path specification for Win32 and Cygwin, was /bin,Bruce Momjian2006-01-19

* It turns out that TablespaceCreateDbspace fails badly if a relcache flushTom Lane2006-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | occurs when it tries to heap_open pg_tablespace. When control returns to smgrcreate, that routine will be holding a dangling pointer to a closed SMgrRelation, resulting in mayhem. This is of course a consequence of the violation of proper module layering inherent in having smgr.c call a tablespace command routine, but the simplest fix seems to be to change the locking mechanism. There's no real need for TablespaceCreateDbspace to touch pg_tablespace at all --- it's only opening it as a way of locking against a parallel DROP TABLESPACE command. A much better answer is to create a special-purpose LWLock to interlock these two operations. This drops TablespaceCreateDbspace quite a few layers down the food chain and makes it something reasonably safe for smgr to call.
* Fix a tiny memory leak (one List header) in RelationCacheInvalidate().Tom Lane2006-01-19
| | | | | | | This is utterly insignificant in normal operation, but it becomes a problem during cache inval stress testing. The original coding in fact had no leak --- the 8.0 List rewrite created the issue. I wonder whether list_concat should pfree the discarded header?
* Modify pgstats code to reduce performance penalties from oversized stats dataTom Lane2006-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | files: avoid creating stats hashtable entries for tables that aren't being touched except by vacuum/analyze, ensure that entries for dropped tables are removed promptly, and tweak the data layout to avoid storing useless struct padding. Also improve the performance of pgstat_vacuum_tabstat(), and make sure that autovacuum invokes it exactly once per autovac cycle rather than multiple times or not at all. This should cure recent complaints about 8.1 showing much higher stats I/O volume than was seen in 8.0. It'd still be a good idea to revisit the design with an eye to not re-writing the entire stats dataset every half second ... but that would be too much to backpatch, I fear.
* Add a new system view, pg_cursors, that displays the currently availableNeil Conway2006-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cursors. Patch from Joachim Wieland, review and ediorialization by Neil Conway. The view lists cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR, using SPI, or via the Bind message of the frontend/backend protocol. This means the view does not list the unnamed portal or the portal created to implement EXECUTE. Because we do list SPI portals, there might be more rows in this view than you might expect if you are using SPI implicitly (e.g. via a procedural language). Per recent discussion on -hackers, the query string included in the view for cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR is based on debug_query_string. That means it is not accurate if multiple queries separated by semicolons are submitted as one query string. However, there doesn't seem a trivial fix for that: debug_query_string is better than nothing. I also changed SPI_cursor_open() to include the source text for the portal it creates: AFAICS there is no reason not to do this. Update the documentation and regression tests, bump the catversion.

* Data transferred binary is now put into the variables verbatim.Michael Meskes2006-01-17

* Improve comments about btree's use of ScanKey data structures: thereTom Lane2006-01-17
| | | | | | | | are two basically different kinds of scankeys, and we ought to try harder to indicate which is used in each place in the code. I've chosen the names "search scankey" and "insertion scankey", though you could make about as good an argument for "operator scankey" and "comparison function scankey".
* Change the parameter_types column of the pg_prepared_statements to beNeil Conway2006-01-16
| | | | | | | | an array of regtype, rather than an array of OIDs. This is likely to be more useful to user, and the type OID can easily be obtained by casting a regtype value to OID. Per suggestion from Tom. Update the documentation and regression tests, and bump the catversion.
