* Add missing newlines at end of error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-07-26
|
* Replace printf format %i by %dPeter Eisentraut2011-07-26
| | | | | They are identical, but the overwhelming majority of the code uses %d, so standardize on that.
* Only display column comments for relkinds that support them.Robert Haas2011-07-26
| | | | Josh Kupershmidt, with minor modifications by me.
* Silence compiler warning about uninitialized variable.Andrew Dunstan2011-07-25
| | | | | It is set correctly on the only path that uses it, but the compiler can't know that.
* Add some environment checks prior to sepgsql regression testing.Robert Haas2011-07-25
| | | | | | This probably needs more work, but it's a start. KaiGai Kohei
* Fix previous patch so it also works if not USE_SSL (mea culpa).Tom Lane2011-07-24
| | | | | | On balance, the need to cover this case changes my mind in favor of pushing all error-message generation duties into the two fe-secure.c routines. So do it that way.
* Improve libpq's error reporting for SSL failures.Tom Lane2011-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | In many cases, pqsecure_read/pqsecure_write set up useful error messages, which were then overwritten with useless ones by their callers. Fix this by defining the responsibility to set an error message to be entirely that of the lower-level function when using SSL. Back-patch to 8.3; the code is too different in 8.2 to be worth the trouble.
* Use OpenSSL's SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER flag.Tom Lane2011-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This disables an entirely unnecessary "sanity check" that causes failures in nonblocking mode, because OpenSSL complains if we move or compact the write buffer. The only actual requirement is that we not modify pending data once we've attempted to send it, which we don't. Per testing and research by Martin Pihlak, though this fix is a lot simpler than his patch. I put the same change into the backend, although it's less clear whether it's necessary there. We do use nonblock mode in some situations in streaming replication, so seems best to keep the same behavior in the backend as in libpq. Back-patch to all supported releases.
* Unbreak Windows builds broken by EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG change.Andrew Dunstan2011-07-23
|
* Change EDITOR_LINENUMBER_SWITCH to an environment variablePeter Eisentraut2011-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | Also change "switch" to "arg" because "switch" is a bit of a sloppy term. So the environment variable is called PSQL_EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG. Set "+" as hardcoded default value on Unix (since "vi" is the hardcoded default editor), so many users won't have to configure this at all. Move the documentation around a bit to centralize the editor configuration under environment variables, rather than repeating bits of it under every backslash command that invokes an editor.
* Rethink behavior of CREATE OR REPLACE during CREATE EXTENSION.Tom Lane2011-07-23
| | | | | | | | | The original implementation simply did nothing when replacing an existing object during CREATE EXTENSION. The folly of this was exposed by a report from Marc Munro: if the existing object belongs to another extension, we are left in an inconsistent state. We should insist that the object does not belong to another extension, and then add it to the current extension if not already a member.
* Unbreak unlogged tables.Robert Haas2011-07-22
| | | | | | I broke this in commit 5da79169d3e9f0fab47da03318c44075b3f824c5, which was obviously insufficiently well tested. Add some regression tests in the hope of making future slip-ups more likely to be noticed.
* Fix PQsetvalue() to avoid possible crash when adding a new tuple.Tom Lane2011-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PQsetvalue unnecessarily duplicated the logic in pqAddTuple, and didn't duplicate it exactly either --- pqAddTuple does not care what is in the tuple-pointer array positions beyond the last valid entry, whereas the code in PQsetvalue assumed such positions would contain NULL. This led to possible crashes if PQsetvalue was applied to a PGresult that had previously been enlarged with pqAddTuple, for instance one built from a server query. Fix by relying on pqAddTuple instead of duplicating logic, and not assuming anything about the contents of res->tuples[res->ntups]. Back-patch to 8.4, where PQsetvalue was introduced. Andrew Chernow
* Make xpath() do something useful with XPath expressions that return scalars.Tom Lane2011-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, xpath() simply returned an empty array if the expression did not yield a node set. This is useless for expressions that return scalars, such as one with name() at the top level. Arrange to return the scalar value as a single-element xml array, instead. (String values will be suitably escaped.) This change will also cause xpath_exists() to return true, not false, for such expressions. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura
* Ensure that xpath() escapes special characters in string values.Tom Lane2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | Without this it's possible for the output to not be legal XML, as illustrated by the added regression test cases. NB: this change will need to be called out as an incompatibility in the 9.2 release notes, since it's possible somebody was relying on the old behavior, even though it's clearly wrong. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura
* Support SECURITY LABEL on databases, tablespaces, and roles.Robert Haas2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | This requires a new shared catalog, pg_shseclabel. Along the way, fix the security_label regression tests so that they don't monkey with the labels of any pre-existing objects. This is unlikely to matter in practice, since only the label for the "dummy" provider was being manipulated. But this way still seems cleaner. KaiGai Kohei, with fairly extensive hacking by me.
* Rewrite libxml error handling to be more robust.Tom Lane2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libxml reports some errors (like invalid xmlns attributes) via the error handler hook, but still returns a success indicator to the library caller. This causes us to miss some errors that are important to report. Since the "generic" error handler hook doesn't know whether the message it's getting is for an error, warning, or notice, stop using that and instead start using the "structured" error handler hook, which gets enough information to be useful. While at it, arrange to save and restore the error handler hook setting in each libxml-using function, rather than assuming we can set and forget the hook. This should improve the odds of working nicely with third-party libraries that also use libxml. In passing, volatile-ize some local variables that get modified within PG_TRY blocks. I noticed this while testing with an older gcc version than I'd previously tried to compile xml.c with. Florian Pflug and Tom Lane, with extensive review/testing by Noah Misch
* Make isolationtester more robust on locked commandsAlvaro Herrera2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Noah Misch diagnosed the buildfarm problems in the isolation tests partly as failure to differentiate backends properly; the old code was using backend IDs, which is not good enough because a new backend might use an already used ID. Use PIDs instead. Also, the code was purposely careless about other concurrent activity, because it isn't expected; and in fact, it doesn't affect the vast majority of the time. However, it can be observed that autovacuum can block tables for long enough to cause sporadic failures. The new code accounts for that by ignoring locks held by processes not explicitly declared in our spec file. Author: Noah Misch
* Increase deadlock_timeout to 100ms in FK isolation testsAlvaro Herrera2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | The previous value of 20ms is dangerously close to the time actually spent just waiting for the deadlock to happen, so on occasion it causes the test to fail simply because the other session didn't get to run early enough, not managing to cause the deadlock that needs to be detected. With this new value, it's expected that most machines on normal load will be able to pass the test. Author: Noah Misch
* Add expected regress output on stricter isolation levelsAlvaro Herrera2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | These new files allow the new FK tests on isolationtester to pass on the serializable and repeatable read isolation levels (which are untested by the buildfarm). Author: Kevin Grittner Reviewed by Noah Misch
* Remove O(N^2) performance issue with multiple SAVEPOINTs.Simon Riggs2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | Subtransaction locks now released en masse at main commit, rather than repeatedly re-scanning for locks as we ascend the nested transaction tree. Split transaction state TBLOCK_SUBEND into two states, TBLOCK_SUBCOMMIT and TBLOCK_SUBRELEASE to allow the commit path to be optimised using the existing code in ResourceOwnerRelease() which appears to have been intended for this usage, judging from comments therein.
* Some refinement for the "fast path" lock patch.Robert Haas2011-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. In GetLockStatusData, avoid initializing instance before we've ensured that the array is large enough. Otherwise, if repalloc moves the block around, we're hosed. 2. Add the word "Relation" to the name of some identifiers, to avoid assuming that the fast-path mechanism will only ever apply to relations (though these particular parts certainly will). Some of the macros could possibly use similar treatment, but the names are getting awfully long already. 3. Add a missing word to comment in AtPrepare_Locks().

* Add GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS plpgsql command to retrieve exception info.Tom Lane2011-07-18

* Create a "fast path" for acquiring weak relation locks.Robert Haas2011-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an AccessShareLock, RowShareLock, or RowExclusiveLock is requested on an unshared database relation, and we can verify that no conflicting locks can possibly be present, record the lock in a per-backend queue, stored within the PGPROC, rather than in the primary lock table. This eliminates a great deal of contention on the lock manager LWLocks. This patch also refactors the interface between GetLockStatusData() and pg_lock_status() to be a bit more abstract, so that we don't rely so heavily on the lock manager's internal representation details. The new fast path lock structures don't have a LOCK or PROCLOCK structure to return, so we mustn't depend on that for purposes of listing outstanding locks. Review by Jeff Davis.
* Add pg_opfamily_is_visible.Robert Haas2011-07-17
| | | | | | | We already have similar functions for many other object types, including operator classes, so it seems like we should have this one, too. Extracted from a larger patch by Josh Kupershmidt
* Further thoughts about temp_file_limit patch.Tom Lane2011-07-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | Move FileClose's decrement of temporary_files_size up, so that it will be executed even if elog() throws an error. This is reasonable since if the unlink() fails, the fact the file is still there is not our fault, and we are going to forget about it anyhow. So we won't count it against temp_file_limit anymore. Update fileSize and temporary_files_size correctly in FileTruncate. We probably don't have any places that truncate temp files, but fd.c surely should not assume that.
* Add temp_file_limit GUC parameter to constrain temporary file space usage.Tom Lane2011-07-17
| | | | | | | The limit is enforced against the total amount of temp file space used by each session. Mark Kirkwood, reviewed by Cédric Villemain and Tatsuo Ishii
* Improve make_subplanTargetList to avoid including Vars unnecessarily.Tom Lane2011-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | If a Var was used only in a GROUP BY expression, the previous implementation would include the Var by itself (as well as the expression) in the generated targetlist. This wouldn't affect the efficiency of the scan/join part of the plan at all, but it could result in passing unnecessarily-wide rows through sorting and grouping steps. It turns out to take only a little more code, and not noticeably more time, to generate a tlist without such redundancy, so let's do that. Per a recent gripe from HarmeekSingh Bedi.
* Replace errdetail("%s", ...) with errdetail_internal("%s", ...).Tom Lane2011-07-16
| | | | | | There may be some other places where we should use errdetail_internal, but they'll have to be evaluated case-by-case. This commit just hits a bunch of places where invoking gettext is obviously a waste of cycles.
* Use errdetail_internal() for SSI transaction cancellation details.Tom Lane2011-07-16
| | | | | | Per discussion, these seem too technical to be worth translating. Kevin Grittner
* Add an errdetail_internal() ereport auxiliary routine.Tom Lane2011-07-16
| | | | | | | | | This function supports untranslated detail messages, in the same way that errmsg_internal supports untranslated primary messages. We've needed this for some time IMO, but discussion of some cases in the SSI code provided the impetus to actually add it. Kevin Grittner, with minor adjustments by me
* Fix SSPI login when multiple roundtrips are requiredMagnus Hagander2011-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | This fixes SSPI login failures showing "The function requested is not supported", often showing up when connecting to localhost.

* Set information_schema.tables.commit_action to nullPeter Eisentraut2011-07-15
| | | | | | The commit action of temporary tables is currently not cataloged, so we can't easily show it. The previous value was outdated from before we had different commit actions.
* Change the way the offset of downlink is stored in GISTInsertStack.Heikki Linnakangas2011-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GISTInsertStack.childoffnum used to mean "offset of the downlink in this node, pointing to the child node in the stack". It's now replaced with downlinkoffnum, which means "offset of the downlink in the parent of this node". gistFindPath() already used childoffnum with this new meaning, and had an extra step at the end to pull all the childoffnum values down one node in the stack, to adjust the stack for the meaning that childoffnum had elsewhere. That's no longer required. The reason to do this now is this new representation is more convenient for the GiST fast build patch that Alexander Korotkov is working on. While we're at it, replace the linked list used in gistFindPath with a standard List, and make gistFindPath() static. Alexander Korotkov, with some changes by me.
* Fix two ancient bugs in GiST code to re-find a parent after page split:Heikki Linnakangas2011-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First, when following a right-link, we incorrectly marked the current page as the parent of the right sibling. In reality, the parent of the right page is the same as the parent of the current page (or some page to the right of it, gistFindCorrectParent() will sort that out). Secondly, when we follow a right-link, we must prepend, not append, the right page to our list of pages to visit. That's because we assume that once we hit a leaf page in the list, all the rest are leaf pages too, and give up. To hit these bugs, you need concurrent actions and several unlucky accidents. Another backend must split the root page, while you're in process of splitting a lower-level page. Furthermore, while you scan the internal nodes to re-find the parent, another backend needs to again split some more internal pages. Even then, the bugs don't necessarily manifest as user-visible errors or index corruption. While we're at it, make the error reporting a bit better if gistFindPath() fails to re-find the parent. It used to be an assertion, but an elog() seems more appropriate. Backpatch to all supported branches.
* In planner, don't assume that empty parent tables aren't really empty.Tom Lane2011-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a heuristic in estimate_rel_size() to clamp the minimum size estimate for a table to 10 pages, unless we can see that vacuum or analyze has been run (and set relpages to something nonzero, so this will always happen for a table that's actually empty). However, it would be better not to do this for inheritance parent tables, which very commonly are really empty and can be expected to stay that way. Per discussion of a recent pgsql-performance report from Anish Kejariwal. Also prevent it from happening for indexes (although this is more in the nature of documentation, since CREATE INDEX normally initializes relpages to something nonzero anyway). Back-patch to 9.0, because the ability to collect statistics across a whole inheritance tree has improved the planner's estimates to the point where this relatively small error makes a significant difference. In the referenced report, merge or hash joins were incorrectly estimated as cheaper than a nestloop with inner indexscan on the inherited table. That was less likely before 9.0 because the lack of inherited stats would have resulted in a default (and rather pessimistic) estimate of the cost of a merge or hash join.

* Update some comments to clarify who does what in targetlist creation.Tom Lane2011-07-13

* Blind attempt at fixing isolation_tester on Win32Alvaro Herrera2011-07-13

* Avoid listing ungrouped Vars in the targetlist of Agg-underneath-Window.Tom Lane2011-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Regular aggregate functions in combination with, or within the arguments of, window functions are OK per spec; they have the semantics that the aggregate output rows are computed and then we run the window functions over that row set. (Thus, this combination is not really useful unless there's a GROUP BY so that more than one aggregate output row is possible.) The case without GROUP BY could fail, as recently reported by Jeff Davis, because sloppy construction of the Agg node's targetlist resulted in extra references to possibly-ungrouped Vars appearing outside the aggregate function calls themselves. See the added regression test case for an example. Fixing this requires modifying the API of flatten_tlist and its underlying function pull_var_clause. I chose to make pull_var_clause's API for aggregates identical to what it was already doing for placeholders, since the useful behaviors turn out to be the same (error, report node as-is, or recurse into it). I also tightened the error checking in this area a bit: if it was ever valid to see an uplevel Var, Aggref, or PlaceHolderVar here, that was a long time ago, so complain instead of ignoring them. Backpatch into 9.1. The failure exists in 8.4 and 9.0 as well, but seeing that it only occurs in a basically-useless corner case, it doesn't seem worth the risks of changing a function API in a minor release. There might be third-party code using pull_var_clause.
