* Adjust TAS assembly as per recent discussions: use "+m"(*lock) everywhereTom Lane2004-06-19
| | | | | | | | | | to reference the spinlock variable, and specify "memory" as a clobber operand to be sure gcc does not try to keep shared-memory values in registers across a spinlock acquisition. Also tighten the S/390 asm sequence, which was apparently written with only minimal study of the gcc asm documentation. I have personally tested i386, ia64, ppc, hppa, and s390 variants --- there is some small chance that I broke the others, but I doubt it.

* Tablespaces. Alternate database locations are dead, long live tablespaces.Tom Lane2004-06-18
| | | | | | | | | There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is dead, it just doesn't know it yet. Gavin Sherry and Tom Lane.

* Represent type-specific length coercion functions as pg_cast entries,Tom Lane2004-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | eliminating the former hard-wired convention about their names. Allow pg_cast entries to represent both type coercion and length coercion in a single step --- this is represented by a function that takes an extra typmod argument, just like a length coercion function. This nicely merges the type and length coercion mechanisms into something at least a little cleaner than we had before. Make use of the single- coercion-step behavior to fix integer-to-bit coercion so that coercing to bit(n) yields the rightmost n bits of the integer instead of the leftmost n bits. This should fix recurrent complaints about the odd behavior of this coercion. Clean up the documentation of the bit string functions, and try to put it where people might actually find it. Also, get rid of the unreliable heuristics in ruleutils.c about whether to display nested coercion steps; instead require parse_coerce.c to label them properly in the first place.
* Arrange to explicitly stop the pgstat processes at the same time weTom Lane2004-06-14

Good point :-( I think the problem is not only that it specifically does not deal with PGC_INTERNAL variables. The problem is in the fact that write_nondefault_variables is called *before* the locale is read (because the locale is read from pg_control and not from any of the "usual" ways to read it). Attached patch is another stab at fixing it. It makes postmaster dump a new copy of the file once it has started the database (before it accepts any connections), which is when it will know about these parameters. Also updates the reading code to set the context to the one where the variable was originally set (PGC_POSTMASTER won't work for PGC_INTERNAL, and the other way around). We still pass lc_collate through the special file, because set_config_option on lc_collate will speficially *not* call setlocale(), and we need that call. But we no longer call set_config_option from there. Magnus Hagander
* This patch updates pgpipe() on win32 to log exactly which part of theBruce Momjian2004-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | call fails when it does. (As it is now, there is no way to figure out the point of error). Shouldn't be a problem since it's most defintily not a performance-critical path (only called on pgstat startup ATM). This should help us debug the pipe error message that's on the win32 status page (which I myself have never been able to reproduce, and thus haven't figured out a better way to debug yet) Magnus Hagander
* When using extended-query protocol, postpone planning of unnamed statementsTom Lane2004-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | until Bind is received, so that actual parameter values are visible to the planner. Make use of the parameter values for estimation purposes (but don't fold them into the actual plan). This buys back most of the potential loss of plan quality that ensues from using out-of-line parameters instead of putting literal values right into the query text. This patch creates a notion of constant-folding expressions 'for estimation purposes only', in which case we can be more aggressive than the normal eval_const_expressions() logic can be. Right now the only difference in behavior is inserting bound values for Params, but it will be interesting to look at other possibilities. One that we've seen come up repeatedly is reducing now() and related functions to current values, so that queries like ... WHERE timestampcol > now() - '1 day' have some chance of being planned effectively. Oliver Jowett, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.
* More restructuring to use Win32 START with paths needing quotes.Bruce Momjian2004-06-11
|
* Attached is a patch that takes care of the PATHSEP issue. I made a moreBruce Momjian2004-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | extensive change then what was suggested. I found the file path.c that contained a lot of "Unix/Windows" agnostic functions so I added a function there instead and removed the PATHSEP declaration in exec.c altogether. All to keep things from scattering all over the code. I also took the liberty of changing the name of the functions "first_path_sep" and "last_path_sep". Where I come from (and I'm apparently not alone given the former macro name PATHSEP), they should be called "first_dir_sep" and "last_dir_sep". The new function I introduced, that actually finds path separators, is now the "first_path_sep". The patch contains changes on all affected places of course. I also changed the documentation on dynamic_library_path to reflect the chagnes. Thomas Hallgren

Default constraint names are chosen to be unique across their whole schema, not just within the parent object, so as to be more SQL-spec-compatible and make the information schema views more useful.

* Support assignment to subfields of composite columns in UPDATE and INSERT.Tom Lane2004-06-09
| | | | | | | | As a side effect, cause subscripts in INSERT targetlists to do something more or less sensible; previously we evaluated such subscripts and then effectively ignored them. Another side effect is that UPDATE-ing an element or slice of an array value that is NULL now produces a non-null result, namely an array containing just the assigned-to positions.
