* Repair old performance bug in tuplesort.c/logtape.c. In the case whereTom Lane2006-03-07
| | | | | | | | we are doing the final merge pass on-the-fly, and not writing the data back onto a 'tape', the number of free blocks in the tape set will become large, leading to a lot of time wasted in ltsReleaseBlock(). There is really no need to track the free blocks anymore in this state, so add a simple shutoff switch. Per report from Stefan Kaltenbrunner.
* Turn off zero_damaged_pages in the right place (ie, in the autovacTom Lane2006-03-07
| | | | | process not in the postmaster) and with the right GucSource (needs to be a nontransactional source since we've not started an xact yet).

* Attached is the new patch. To summarize:Bruce Momjian2006-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - new function justify_interval(interval) - modified function justify_hours(interval) - modified function justify_days(interval) These functions are defined to meet the requirements as discussed in this thread. Specifically: - justify_hours makes certain the sign bit on the hours matches the sign bit on the days. It only checks the sign bit on the days, and not the months, when determining if the hours should be positive or negative. After the call, -24 < hours < 24. - justify_days makes certain the sign bit on the days matches the sign bit on the months. It's behavior does not depend on the hours, nor does it modify the hours. After the call, -30 < days < 30. - justify_interval makes sure the sign bits on all three fields months, days, and hours are all the same. After the call, -24 < hours < 24 AND -30 < days < 30.

While playing with this patch under 8.1.2 at home I discovered a mistake in how I manually applied one of the hunks to fe-auth.c. Basically, the base code had changed and so the patch needed to be modified slightly. This is because the code no longer either has a freeable pointer under 'name' or has 'name' as NULL. The attached patch correctly frees the string from pg_krb5_authname (where it had been strdup'd) if and only if pg_krb5_authname returned a string (as opposed to falling through and having name be set using name = pw->name;). Also added a comment to this effect. Backpatch to 8.1.X. Stephen Frost

* Per recent discussion on -hackers, we should sometimes reorder theNeil Conway2006-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | columns of the grouping clause to avoid redundant sorts. The optimizer is not currently capable of doing this, so this patch implements a simple hack in the analysis phase (transformGroupClause): if any subset of the GROUP BY clause matches a prefix of the ORDER BY list, that prefix is moved to the front of the GROUP BY clause. This shouldn't change the semantics of the query, and allows a redundant sort to be avoided for queries like "GROUP BY a, b ORDER BY b".

* Incorporate a couple of recent tuplesort.c improvements into tuplestore.c.Tom Lane2006-03-04
| | | | | | In particular, ensure that enlargement of the memtuples[] array doesn't fall foul of MaxAllocSize when work_mem is very large, and don't bother enlarging it if that would force an immediate switch into 'tape' mode anyway.

* Prevent sorting from requesting a SortTuple array that exceeds MaxAllocSize;Tom Lane2006-03-04
| | | | | | | we'll go over to disk-based sort if we reach that limit. This fixes Stefan Kaltenbrunner's observation that sorting can suffer an 'invalid memory alloc request size' failure when sort_mem is set large enough. It's unfortunately not so easy to fix in 8.1 ...

* Arrange to call AbsorbFsyncRequests every so often while performing aTom Lane2006-03-03
| | | | | | | checkpoint in the bgwriter. This forestalls overflow of the fsync request queue, which is not fatal but causes considerable performance degradation when it occurs (because backends then have to do their own fsyncs). Per patch from Itagaki Takahiro, modified a little bit by me.
* Remove unnecessary lo_lseek call in lo_open. Apparently there was onceTom Lane2006-03-02
| | | | | | | a need for it back in the neolithic era, but it's certainly dead code in any PG release we would recognize as such. Since it forces an additional network round trip to the backend, getting rid of it should provide some small performance improvement for large-object-using clients.

* Fix possible crash at transaction end when a plpgsql function is used andTom Lane2006-03-02
| | | | | | | | | then modified within the same transaction. The code was using a linked list of active PLpgSQL_expr structs, which was OK when it was written because plpgsql never released any parse data structures for the life of the backend. But since Neil fixed plpgsql's memory management, elements of the linked list could be freed, leading to crash when the list is chased. Per report and test case from Kris Jurka.
