* Push index operator lossiness determination down to GIST/GIN opclassTom Lane2008-04-14
| | | | | | | | | | | "consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need 8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the index match is exact or not. Tom Lane, after an idea of Heikki's, and with some help from Teodor.

* Since createplan.c no longer cares whether index operators are lossy, it hasTom Lane2008-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | no particular need to do get_op_opfamily_properties() while building an indexscan plan. Postpone that lookup until executor start. This simplifies createplan.c a lot more than it complicates nodeIndexscan.c, and makes things more uniform since we already had to do it that way for RowCompare expressions. Should be a bit faster too, at least for plans that aren't re-used many times, since we avoid palloc'ing and perhaps copying the intermediate list data structure.
* Phase 2 of project to make index operator lossiness be determined at runtimeTom Lane2008-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | instead of plan time. Extend the amgettuple API so that the index AM returns a boolean indicating whether the indexquals need to be rechecked, and make that rechecking happen in nodeIndexscan.c (currently the only place where it's expected to be needed; other callers of index_getnext are just erroring out for now). For the moment, GIN and GIST have stub logic that just always sets the recheck flag to TRUE --- I'm hoping to get Teodor to handle pushing that control down to the opclass consistent() functions. The planner no longer pays any attention to amopreqcheck, and that catalog column will go away in due course.
* Turn the -i/--ignore-version options of pg_dump and pg_dumpall into no-ops:Tom Lane2008-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | the server version check is now always enforced. Relax the version check to allow a server that is of pg_dump's own major version but a later minor version; this is the only case that -i was at all safe to use in. pg_restore already enforced only a very weak version check, so this is really just a documentation change for it. Per discussion.
* Clean up a few places where Datums were being treated as pointers withoutTom Lane2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | going through DatumGetPointer or some other "official" conversion macro. Not actually a bug, since Datum the same size as pointer is the only supported case at the moment, but good cleanup for the future. Gavin Sherry
* Create new routines systable_beginscan_ordered, systable_getnext_ordered,Tom Lane2008-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | systable_endscan_ordered that have API similar to systable_beginscan etc (in particular, the passed-in scankeys have heap not index attnums), but guarantee ordered output, unlike the existing functions. For the moment these are just very thin wrappers around index_beginscan/index_getnext/etc. Someday they might need to get smarter; but for now this is just a code refactoring exercise to reduce the number of direct callers of index_getnext, in preparation for changing that function's API. In passing, remove index_getnext_indexitem, which has been dead code for quite some time, and will have even less use than that in the presence of run-time-lossy indexes.
* A quick try at un-breaking the Cygwin build. Whether it needs theTom Lane2008-04-11
| | | | | pgwin32_safestat remains to be determined, but in any case the current code is not tolerable.
* Add some debug support code to try to catch future mistakes in the area ofTom Lane2008-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | input functions that include garbage bytes in their results. Provide a compile-time option RANDOMIZE_ALLOCATED_MEMORY to make palloc fill returned blocks with variable contents. This option also makes the parser perform conversions of literal constants twice and compare the results, emitting a WARNING if they don't match. (This is the code I used to catch the input function bugs fixed in the previous commit.) For the moment, I've set it to be activated automatically by --enable-cassert.
* Fix several datatype input functions that were allowing unused bytes in theirTom Lane2008-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | results to contain uninitialized, unpredictable values. While this was okay as far as the datatypes themselves were concerned, it's a problem for the parser because occurrences of the "same" literal might not be recognized as equal by datumIsEqual (and hence not by equal()). It seems sufficient to fix this in the input functions since the only critical use of equal() is in the parser's comparisons of ORDER BY and DISTINCT expressions. Per a trouble report from Marc Cousin. Patch all the way back. Interestingly, array_in did not have the bug before 8.2, which may explain why the issue went unnoticed for so long.
* Replace "amgetmulti" AM functions with "amgetbitmap", in which the wholeTom Lane2008-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | indexscan always occurs in one call, and the results are returned in a TIDBitmap instead of a limited-size array of TIDs. This should improve speed a little by reducing AM entry/exit overhead, and it is necessary infrastructure if we are ever to support bitmap indexes. In an only slightly related change, add support for TIDBitmaps to preserve (somewhat lossily) the knowledge that particular TIDs reported by an index need to have their quals rechecked when the heap is visited. This facility is not really used yet; we'll need to extend the forced-recheck feature to plain indexscans before it's useful, and that hasn't been coded yet. The intent is to use it to clean up 8.3's horrid @@@ kluge for text search with weighted queries. There might be other uses in future, but that one alone is sufficient reason. Heikki Linnakangas, with some adjustments by me.
* Create wrapper pgwin32_safestat() and redefine stat() to itMagnus Hagander2008-04-10
| | | | | | | on win32, because the stat() function in the runtime cannot be trusted to always update the st_size field. Per report and research by Sergey Zubkovsky.

* Implement a few changes to how shared libraries and dynamically loadablePeter Eisentraut2008-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | modules are built. Foremost, it creates a solid distinction between these two types of targets based on what had already been implemented and duplicated in ad hoc ways before. Specifically, - Dynamically loadable modules no longer get a soname. The numbers previously set in the makefiles were dummy numbers anyway, and the presence of a soname upset a few packaging tools, so it is nicer not to have one. - The cumbersome detour taken on installation (build a libfoo.so.0.0.0 and then override the rule to install foo.so instead) is removed. - Lots of duplicated code simplified.
* Make plpgsql support FOR over a query specified by a cursor declaration,Tom Lane2008-04-06

* Improve hash_any() to use word-wide fetches when hashing suitably alignedTom Lane2008-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | data. This makes for a significant speedup at the cost that the results now vary between little-endian and big-endian machines; which forces us to add explicit ORDER BYs in a couple of regression tests to preserve machine-independent comparison results. Also, force initdb by bumping catversion, since the contents of hash indexes will change (at least on big-endian machines). Kenneth Marshall and Tom Lane, based on work from Bob Jenkins. This commit does not adopt Bob's new faster mix() algorithm, however, since we still need to convince ourselves that that doesn't degrade the quality of the hashing.
* A small visit from the portability and localization police.Tom Lane2008-04-05

* Defend against JOINs having more than 32K columns altogether. We cannotTom Lane2008-04-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | currently support this because we must be able to build Vars referencing join columns, and varattno is only 16 bits wide. Perhaps this should be improved in future, but considering that it never came up before, I'm not sure the problem is worth much effort. Per bug #4070 from Marcello Ceschia. The problem seems largely academic in 8.0 and 7.4, because they have (different) O(N^2) performance issues with such wide joins, but back-patch all the way anyway.
* Have pg_stop_backup() wait for all archive files to be sent, rather thanBruce Momjian2008-04-05

* Re-implement division for numeric values using the traditional "schoolbook"Tom Lane2008-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | algorithm. This is a good deal slower than our old roundoff-error-prone code for long inputs, so we keep the old code for use in the transcendental functions, where everything is approximate anyway. Also create a user-accessible function div(numeric, numeric) to provide access to the exact result of trunc(x/y) --- since the regular numeric / operator will round off its result, simply computing that expression in SQL doesn't reliably give the desired answer. This fixes bug #3387 and various related corner cases, and improves the usefulness of PG for high-precision integer arithmetic.

* Teach ANALYZE to distinguish dead and in-doubt tuples, which it formerlyTom Lane2008-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | classed all as "dead"; also get it to count DEAD item pointers as dead rows, instead of ignoring them as before. Also improve matters so that tuples previously inserted or deleted by our own transaction are handled nicely: the stats collector's live-tuple and dead-tuple counts will end up correct after our transaction ends, regardless of whether we end in commit or abort. While there's more work that could be done to improve the counting of in-doubt tuples in both VACUUM and ANALYZE, this commit is enough to alleviate some known bad behaviors in 8.3; and the other stuff that's been discussed seems like research projects anyway.

* Revert my bad decision of about a year ago to make PortalDefineQueryTom Lane2008-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | responsible for copying the query string into the new Portal. Such copying is unnecessary in the common code path through exec_simple_query, and in this case it can be enormously expensive because the string might contain a large number of individual commands; we were copying the entire, long string for each command, resulting in O(N^2) behavior for N commands. (This is the cause of bug #4079.) A second problem with it is that PortalDefineQuery really can't risk error, because if it elog's before having set up the Portal, we will leak the plancache refcount that the caller is trying to hand off to the portal. So go back to the design in which the caller is responsible for making sure everything is copied into the portal if necessary.
* Convert three more guc settings to enum type:Magnus Hagander2008-04-02

* Add SPI-level support for executing SQL commands with one-time-use plans,Tom Lane2008-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | that is commands that have out-of-line parameters but the plan is prepared assuming that the parameter values are constants. This is needed for the plpgsql EXECUTE USING patch, but will probably have use elsewhere. This commit includes the SPI functions and documentation, but no callers nor regression tests. The upcoming EXECUTE USING patch will provide regression-test coverage. I thought committing this separately made sense since it's logically a distinct feature.
* Fix an oversight I made in a cleanup patch over a year ago:Tom Lane2008-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | eval_const_expressions needs to be passed the PlannerInfo ("root") structure, because in some cases we want it to substitute values for Param nodes. (So "constant" is not so constant as all that ...) This mistake partially disabled optimization of unnamed extended-Query statements in 8.3: in particular the LIKE-to-indexscan optimization would never be applied if the LIKE pattern was passed as a parameter, and constraint exclusion depending on a parameter value didn't work either.
