2014-04-14Have lcov call the right gcovPeter Eisentraut
By default, lcov will call whatever gcov it can find in the path. But if the user has specified a different gcov to configure, this could be incompatible. So tell lcov explicitly with an option which gcov program to call.

2014-04-14Set pd_lower on internal GIN posting tree pages.Heikki Linnakangas
This allows squeezing out the unused space in full-page writes. And more importantly, it can be a useful debugging aid. In hindsight we should've done this back when GIN was added - we wouldn't need the 'maxoff' field in the page opaque struct if we had used pd_lower and pd_upper like on normal pages. But as long as there can be pages in the index that have been binary-upgraded from pre-9.4 versions, we can't rely on that, and have to continue using 'maxoff'. Most of the code churn comes from renaming some macros, now that they're used on internal pages, too. This change is completely backwards-compatible, no effect on pg_upgrade.

2014-04-14Fix bogus handling of bad strategy number in GIST consistent() functions.Tom Lane
Make sure we throw an error instead of silently doing the wrong thing when fed a strategy number we don't recognize. Also, in the places that did already throw an error, spell the error message in a way more consistent with our message style guidelines. Per report from Paul Jones. Although this is a bug, it won't occur unless a superuser tries to do something he shouldn't, so it doesn't seem worth back-patching.

2014-04-14GIN entry pages follow the standard page layout - tell XLogInsert.Heikki Linnakangas

2014-04-13Improve some O(N^2) behavior in window function evaluation.Tom Lane
Repositioning the tuplestore seek pointer in window_gettupleslot() turns out to be a very significant expense when the window frame is sizable and the frame end can move. To fix, introduce a tuplestore function for skipping an arbitrary number of tuples in one call, parallel to the one we introduced for tuplesort objects in commit 8d65da1f. This reduces the cost of window_gettupleslot() to O(1) if the tuplestore has not spilled to disk. As in the previous commit, I didn't try to do any real optimization of tuplestore_skiptuples for the case where the tuplestore has spilled to disk. There is probably no practical way to get the cost to less than O(N) anyway, but perhaps someone can think of something later. Also fix PersistHoldablePortal() to make use of this API now that we have it. Based on a suggestion by Dean Rasheed, though this turns out not to look much like his patch.

2014-04-13Make a dedicated AlterTblSpcStmt productionStephen Frost
Given that ALTER TABLESPACE has moved on from just existing for general purpose rename/owner changes, it deserves its own top-level production in the grammar. This also cleans up the RenameStmt to only ever be used for actual RENAMEs again- it really wasn't appropriate to hide non-RENAME productions under there. Noted by Alvaro.
2014-04-13Add ANALYZE into regression testsStephen Frost
Looks like we can end up with different plans happening on the buildfarm, which breaks the regression tests when we include EXPLAIN output (which is done in the regression tests for updatable security views, to ensure that the user-defined function isn't pushed down to a level where it could view the rows before the security quals are applied). This adds in ANALYZE to hopefully make the plans consistent. The ANALYZE ends up changing the original plan too, so the update looks bigger than it really is. The new plan looks perfectly valid, of course.

2014-04-12Make security barrier views automatically updatableStephen Frost
Views which are marked as security_barrier must have their quals applied before any user-defined quals are called, to prevent user-defined functions from being able to see rows which the security barrier view is intended to prevent them from seeing. Remove the restriction on security barrier views being automatically updatable by adding a new securityQuals list to the RTE structure which keeps track of the quals from security barrier views at each level, independently of the user-supplied quals. When RTEs are later discovered which have securityQuals populated, they are turned into subquery RTEs which are marked as security_barrier to prevent any user-supplied quals being pushed down (modulo LEAKPROOF quals).

2014-04-12Provide moving-aggregate support for a bunch of numerical aggregates.Tom Lane
First installment of the promised moving-aggregate support in built-in aggregates: count(), sum(), avg(), stddev() and variance() for assorted datatypes, though not for float4/float8. In passing, remove a 2001-vintage kluge in interval_accum(): interval array elements have been properly aligned since around 2003, but nobody remembered to take out this workaround. Also, fix a thinko in the opr_sanity tests for moving-aggregate catalog entries. David Rowley and Florian Pflug, reviewed by Dean Rasheed
2014-04-12Create infrastructure for moving-aggregate optimization.Tom Lane
Until now, when executing an aggregate function as a window function within a window with moving frame start (that is, any frame start mode except UNBOUNDED PRECEDING), we had to recalculate the aggregate from scratch each time the frame head moved. This patch allows an aggregate definition to include an alternate "moving aggregate" implementation that includes an inverse transition function for removing rows from the aggregate's running state. As long as this can be done successfully, runtime is proportional to the total number of input rows, rather than to the number of input rows times the average frame length. This commit includes the core infrastructure, documentation, and regression tests using user-defined aggregates. Follow-on commits will update some of the built-in aggregates to use this feature.

2014-04-10Fix bugs in GIN "fast scan" with partial match.Heikki Linnakangas
There were a couple of bugs here. First, if the fuzzy limit was exceeded, the loop in entryGetItem might drop out too soon if a whole block needs to be skipped because it's < advancePast ("continue" in a while-loop checks the loop condition too). Secondly, the loop checked when stepping to a new page that there is at least one offset on the page < advancePast, but we cannot rely on that on subsequent calls of entryGetItem, because advancePast might change in between. That caused the skipping loop to read bogus items in the TbmIterateResult's offset array. First item and fix by Alexander Korotkov, second bug pointed out by Fabrízio de Royes Mello, by a small variation of Alexander's test query.

2014-04-08Add an in-core GiST index opclass for inet/cidr types.Tom Lane
This operator class can accelerate subnet/supernet tests as well as btree-equivalent ordered comparisons. It also handles a new network operator inet && inet (overlaps, a/k/a "is supernet or subnet of"), which is expected to be useful in exclusion constraints. Ideally this opclass would be the default for GiST with inet/cidr data, but we can't mark it that way until we figure out how to do a more or less graceful transition from the current situation, in which the really-completely-bogus inet/cidr opclasses in contrib/btree_gist are marked as default. Having the opclass in core and not default is better than not having it at all, though. While at it, add new documentation sections to allow us to officially document GiST/GIN/SP-GiST opclasses, something there was never a clear place to do before. I filled these in with some simple tables listing the existing opclasses and the operators they support, but there's certainly scope to put more information there.

2014-04-08Get rid of the dynamic shared memory state file.Robert Haas
Instead of storing the ID of the dynamic shared memory control segment in a file within the data directory, store it in the main control segment. This avoids a number of nasty corner cases, most seriously that doing an online backup and then using it on the same machine (e.g. to fire up a standby) would result in the standby clobbering all of the master's dynamic shared memory segments. Per complaints from Heikki Linnakangas, Fujii Masao, and Tom Lane.

2014-04-08Fix hot standby bug with GiST scans.Heikki Linnakangas
Don't reset the rightlink of a page when replaying a page update record. This was a leftover from pre-hot standby days, when it was not possible to have scans concurrent with WAL replay. Resetting the right-link was not necessary back then either, but it was done for the sake of tidiness. But with hot standby, it's wrong, because a concurrent scan might still need it. Backpatch all versions with hot standby, 9.0 and above.

2014-04-07Assert that strong-lock count is >0 everywhere it's decremented.Robert Haas
The one existing assertion of this type has tripped a few times in the buildfarm lately, but it's not clear whether the problem is really originating there or whether it's leftovers from a trip through one of the other two paths that lack a matching assertion. So add one. Since the same bug(s) most likely exist(s) in the back-branches also, back-patch to 9.2, where the fast-path lock mechanism was added.

2014-04-05Improve contrib/pg_trgm's heuristics for regexp index searches.Tom Lane
When extracting trigrams from a regular expression for search of a GIN or GIST trigram index, it's useful to penalize (preferentially discard) trigrams that contain whitespace, since those are typically far more common in the index than trigrams not containing whitespace. Of course, this should only be a preference not a hard rule, since we might otherwise end up with no trigrams to search for. The previous coding tended to produce fairly inefficient trigram search sets for anchored regexp patterns, as reported by Erik Rijkers. This patch penalizes whitespace-containing trigrams, and also reduces the target number of extracted trigrams, since experience suggests that the original coding tended to select too many trigrams to search for. Alexander Korotkov, reviewed by Tom Lane
2014-04-05Block signals earlier during postmaster startup.Tom Lane
Formerly, we set up the postmaster's signal handling only when we were about to start launching subprocesses. This is a bad idea though, as it means that for example a SIGINT arriving before that will kill the postmaster instantly, perhaps leaving lockfiles, socket files, shared memory, etc laying about. We'd rather that such a signal caused orderly postmaster termination including releasing of those resources. A simple fix is to move the PostmasterMain stanza that initializes signal handling to an earlier point, before we've created any such resources. Then, an early-arriving signal will be blocked until we're ready to deal with it in the usual way. (The only part that really needs to be moved up is blocking of signals, but it seems best to keep the signal handler installation calls together with that; for one thing this ensures the kernel won't drop any signals we wished to get. The handlers won't get invoked in any case until we unblock signals in ServerLoop.) Per a report from MauMau. He proposed changing the way "pg_ctl stop" works to deal with this, but that'd just be masking one symptom not fixing the core issue. It's been like this since forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.
2014-04-05Fix another palloc in critical section.Heikki Linnakangas
Also add a regression test for a GIN index with enough items with the same key, so that a GIN posting tree gets created. Apparently none of the existing GIN tests were large enough for that. This code is new, no backpatching required.
2014-04-05Fix processing of PGC_BACKEND GUC parameters on Windows.Tom Lane
EXEC_BACKEND builds (i.e., Windows) failed to absorb values of PGC_BACKEND parameters if they'd been changed post-startup via the config file. This for example prevented log_connections from working if it were turned on post-startup. The mechanism for handling this case has always been a bit of a kluge, and it wasn't revisited when we implemented EXEC_BACKEND. While in a normal forking environment new backends will inherit the postmaster's value of such settings, EXEC_BACKEND backends have to read the settings from the CONFIG_EXEC_PARAMS file, and they were mistakenly rejecting them. So this case has always been broken in the Windows port; so back-patch to all supported branches. Amit Kapila
2014-04-05ecpg/ecpglib must build the src/port files it uses with -DFRONTEND.Tom Lane
Remarkably, this hasn't been noticed before, though it surely should have been happening since around the fall of the Byzantine empire. Commit 438b529604 changed path.c to depend on FRONTEND, and that exposed the omission, per buildfarm reports. I'm suspicious that some other subdirectories are missing this too, but this one change is enough to make ecpg tests pass for me.
