* Do a pass of code review for the ALTER TABLE ADD INHERITS patch. KeepNeil Conway2006-07-02
| | | | | | | | | the read lock we hold on the table's parent relation until commit. Update equalfuncs.c for the new field in AlterTableCmd. Various improvements to comments, variable names, and error reporting. There is room for further improvement here, but this is at least a step in the right direction.

* ALTER TABLE ... ADD/DROPS INHERIT (actually INHERIT / NO INHERIT)Bruce Momjian2006-07-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Open items: There were a few tangentially related issues that have come up that I think are TODOs. I'm likely to tackle one or two of these next so I'm interested in hearing feedback on them as well. . Constraints currently do not know anything about inheritance. Tom suggested adding a coninhcount and conislocal like attributes have to track their inheritance status. . Foreign key constraints currently do not get copied to new children (and therefore my code doesn't verify them). I don't think it would be hard to add them and treat them like CHECK constraints. . No constraints at all are copied to tables defined with LIKE. That makes it hard to use LIKE to define new partitions. The standard defines LIKE and specifically says it does not copy constraints. But the standard already has an option called INCLUDING DEFAULTS; we could always define a non-standard extension LIKE table INCLUDING CONSTRAINTS that gives the user the option to request a copy including constraints. . Personally, I think the whole attislocal thing is bunk. The decision about whether to drop a column from children tables or not is something that should be up to the user and trying to DWIM based on whether there was ever a local definition or the column was acquired purely through inheritance is hardly ever going to match up with user expectations. . And of course there's the whole unique and primary key constraint issue. I think to get any traction at all on this you have a prerequisite of a real partitioned table implementation where the system knows what the partition key is so it can recognize when it's a leading part of an index key.

* Fix oversight in planning for multiple indexscans driven byTom Lane2006-07-01
| | | | | | | | ScalarArrayOpExpr index quals: we were estimating the right total number of rows returned, but treating the index-access part of the cost as if a single scan were fetching that many consecutive index tuples. Actually we should treat it as a multiple indexscan, and if there are enough of 'em the Mackert-Lohman discount should kick in.
* Revise the planner's handling of "pseudoconstant" WHERE clauses, that isTom Lane2006-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | clauses containing no variables and no volatile functions. Such a clause can be used as a one-time qual in a gating Result plan node, to suppress plan execution entirely when it is false. Even when the clause is true, putting it in a gating node wins by avoiding repeated evaluation of the clause. In previous PG releases, query_planner() would do this for pseudoconstant clauses appearing at the top level of the jointree, but there was no ability to generate a gating Result deeper in the plan tree. To fix it, get rid of the special case in query_planner(), and instead process pseudoconstant clauses through the normal RestrictInfo qual distribution mechanism. When a pseudoconstant clause is found attached to a path node in create_plan(), pull it out and generate a gating Result at that point. This requires special-casing pseudoconstants in selectivity estimation and cost_qual_eval, but on the whole it's pretty clean. It probably even makes the planner a bit faster than before for the normal case of no pseudoconstants, since removing pull_constant_clauses saves one useless traversal of the qual tree. Per gripe from Phil Frost.

* Remove the separate 'stats buffer' process, letting backend stats messagesTom Lane2006-06-29
| | | | | | | | | be delivered directly to the collector process. The extra process context swaps required to transfer data through the buffer process seem to outweigh any value the buffering might have. Per recent discussion and tests. I modified Bruce's draft patch to use poll() rather than select() where available (this makes a noticeable difference on my system), and fixed up the EXEC_BACKEND case.
* Change TRUNCATE's method for searching for foreign-key references so thatTom Lane2006-06-29

* Fix hash aggregation to suppress unneeded columns from being stored inTom Lane2006-06-28
| | | | | | | | | tuple hash table entries. This addresses the problem previously noted that use of a 'physical tlist' in the input scan node could bloat the hash table entries far beyond what the planner expects. It's a better answer than my previous thought of undoing the physical tlist optimization, because we can also remove columns that are needed to compute the aggregate functions but aren't part of the grouping column set.

* Extend the MinimalTuple concept to tuplesort.c, thereby reducing theTom Lane2006-06-27
| | | | | | | | | per-tuple space overhead for sorts in memory. I chose to replace the previous patch that tried to write out the bare minimum amount of data when sorting on disk; instead, just dump the MinimalTuples as-is. This wastes 3 to 10 bytes per tuple depending on architecture and null-bitmap length, but the simplification in the writetup/readtup routines seems worth it.

| | | | | | | | | | will be expanded to a list of their member fields, rather than creating a nested rowtype field as formerly. (The old behavior is still available by omitting '.*'.) This syntax is not allowed by the SQL spec AFAICS, so changing its behavior doesn't violate the spec. The new behavior is substantially more useful since it allows, for example, triggers to check for data changes with 'if row(new.*) is distinct from row(old.*)'. Per my recent proposal.
