by creating a reference-count mechanism, similar to what we did a long time
ago for catcache entries. The back branches have an ugly solution involving
lots of extra copies, but this way is more efficient. Reference counting is
only applied to tupdescs that are actually in caches --- there seems no need
to use it for tupdescs that are generated in the executor, since they'll go
away during plan shutdown by virtue of being in the per-query memory context.

support both FOR UPDATE and FOR SHARE in one command, as well as both
NOWAIT and normal WAIT behavior. The more general code is actually
simpler and cleaner.

bits indicating which optional capabilities can actually be exercised
at runtime. This will allow Sort and Material nodes, and perhaps later
other nodes, to avoid unnecessary overhead in common cases.
This commit just adds the infrastructure and arranges to pass the correct
flag values down to plan nodes; none of the actual optimizations are here
yet. I'm committing this separately in case anyone wants to measure the
added overhead. (It should be negligible.)

possible ScanDirection alternatives rather than magic numbers
(-1, 0, 1). Also, use the ScanDirection macros in a few places
rather than directly checking whether `dir == ForwardScanDirection'
and the like. Per patch from James William Pye. His patch also
changed ScanDirection to be a "char" rather than an enum, which
I haven't applied.

our own command (or more generally, xmin = our xact and cmin >= current
command ID) should not be seen as good. Else we may try to update rows
we already updated. This error was inserted last August while fixing the
even bigger problem that the old coding wouldn't see *any* tuples inserted
by our own transaction as good. Per report from Euler Taveira de Oliveira.

rather than "return expr;" -- the latter style is used in most of the
tree. I kept the parentheses when they were necessary or useful because
the return expression was complex.

relation if it's already been locked by execMain.c as either a result
relation or a FOR UPDATE/SHARE relation. This avoids an extra trip to
the shared lock manager state. Per my suggestion yesterday.

comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

tuple in-place, but instead passes back an all-new tuple structure if
any changes are needed. This is a much cleaner and more robust solution
for the bug discovered by Alexey Beschiokov; accordingly, revert the
quick hack I installed yesterday.
With this change, HeapTupleData.t_datamcxt is no longer needed; will
remove it in a separate commit in HEAD only.

doing heap_insert or heap_update, wipe out any extracted fields in
the TupleTableSlot containing the tuple, because they might not be valid
anymore if tuptoaster.c changed the tuple. Safe because slot must be
in the materialized state, but mighty ugly --- find a better answer!

slot of the topmost plan node when a trigger returns a modified tuple.
These appear to be the only places where a plan node's caller did not
treat the result slot as read-only, which is an assumption that nodeUnique
makes as of 8.1. Fixes trigger-vs-DISTINCT bug reported by Frank van Vugt.

someone else (such as a superuser or a member of the owning role).

insufficient paranoia in code that follows t_ctid links. (We must do both
because even with VACUUM doing it properly, the intermediate state with
a dangling t_ctid link is visible concurrently during lazy VACUUM, and
could be seen afterwards if either type of VACUUM crashes partway through.)
Also try to improve documentation about what's going on. Patch is a bit
bulky because passing the XMAX information around required changing the
APIs of some low-level heapam.c routines, but it's not conceptually very
complicated. Per trouble report from Teodor and subsequent analysis.
This needs to be back-patched, but I'll do that after 8.1 beta is out.

and pg_auth_members. There are still many loose ends to finish in this
patch (no documentation, no regression tests, no pg_dump support for
instance). But I'm going to commit it now anyway so that Alvaro can
make some progress on shared dependencies. The catalog changes should
be pretty much done.

aren't doing anything useful (ie, neither selection nor projection).
Also, extend to SubqueryScan the hacks already in place to avoid
unnecessary ExecProject calls when the result would just be the same
tuple the subquery already delivered. This saves some overhead in
UNION and other set operations, as well as avoiding overhead for
unflatten-able subqueries. Per example from Sokolov Yura.

which is neither needed by nor related to that header. Remove the bogus
inclusion and instead include the header in those C files that actually
need it. Also fix unnecessary inclusions and bad inclusion order in
tsearch2 files.

to eliminate unnecessary deadlocks. This commit adds SELECT ... FOR SHARE
paralleling SELECT ... FOR UPDATE. The implementation uses a new SLRU
data structure (managed much like pg_subtrans) to represent multiple-
transaction-ID sets. When more than one transaction is holding a shared
lock on a particular row, we create a MultiXactId representing that set
of transactions and store its ID in the row's XMAX. This scheme allows
an effectively unlimited number of row locks, just as we did before,
while not costing any extra overhead except when a shared lock actually
has to be shared. Still TODO: use the regular lock manager to control
the grant order when multiple backends are waiting for a row lock.

indexes. Extend the macros in include/catalog/*.h to carry the info
about hand-assigned OIDs, and adjust the genbki script and bootstrap
code to make the relations actually get those OIDs. Remove the small
number of RelOid_pg_foo macros that we had in favor of a complete
set named like the catname.h and indexing.h macros. Next phase will
get rid of internal use of names for looking up catalogs and indexes;
but this completes the changes forcing an initdb, so it looks like a
good place to commit.
Along the way, I made the shared relations (pg_database etc) not be
'bootstrap' relations any more, so as to reduce the number of hardwired
entries and simplify changing those relations in future. I'm not
sure whether they ever really needed to be handled as bootstrap
relations, but it seems to work fine to not do so now.

few palloc's. I also chose to eliminate the restype and restypmod fields
entirely, since they are redundant with information stored in the node's
contained expression; re-examining the expression at need seems simpler
and more reliable than trying to keep restype/restypmod up to date.

executing a statement that fires triggers. Formerly this time was
included in "Total runtime" but not otherwise accounted for.
As a side benefit, we avoid re-opening relations when firing non-deferred
AFTER triggers, because the trigger code can re-use the main executor's
ResultRelInfo data structure.

of tuples when passing data up through multiple plan nodes. A slot can now
hold either a normal "physical" HeapTuple, or a "virtual" tuple consisting
of Datum/isnull arrays. Upper plan levels can usually just copy the Datum
arrays, avoiding heap_formtuple() and possible subsequent nocachegetattr()
calls to extract the data again. This work extends Atsushi Ogawa's earlier
patch, which provided the key idea of adding Datum arrays to TupleTableSlots.
(I believe however that something like this was foreseen way back in Berkeley
days --- see the old comment on ExecProject.) A test case involving many
levels of join of fairly wide tables (about 80 columns altogether) showed
about 3x overall speedup, though simple queries will probably not be
helped very much.
I have also duplicated some code in heaptuple.c in order to provide versions
of heap_formtuple and friends that use "bool" arrays to indicate null
attributes, instead of the old convention of "char" arrays containing either
'n' or ' '. This provides a better match to the convention used by
ExecEvalExpr. While I have not made a concerted effort to get rid of uses
of the old routines, I think they should be deprecated and eventually removed.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...

columns. The returned tuple needs to have appropriate NULL columns
inserted so that it actually matches the declared rowtype. It seemed
convenient to use a JunkFilter for this, so I made some cleanups and
simplifications in the JunkFilter code to allow it to support this
additional functionality. (That in turn exposed a latent bug in
nodeAppend.c, which is that it was returning a tuple slot whose
descriptor didn't match its data.) Also, move check_sql_fn_retval
out of pg_proc.c and into functions.c, where it seems to more naturally
belong.

mode see a fresh snapshot for each command in the function, rather than
using the latest interactive command's snapshot. Also, suppress fresh
snapshots as well as CommandCounterIncrement inside STABLE and IMMUTABLE
functions, instead using the snapshot taken for the most closely nested
regular query. (This behavior is only sane for read-only functions, so
the patch also enforces that such functions contain only SELECT commands.)
As per my proposal of 6-Sep-2004; I note that I floated essentially the
same proposal on 19-Jun-2002, but that discussion tailed off without any
action. Since 8.0 seems like the right place to be taking possibly
nontrivial backwards compatibility hits, let's get it done now.

((Snapshot) NULL) can no longer be confused with a valid snapshot,
as per my recent suggestion. Define a macro InvalidSnapshot for 0.
Use InvalidSnapshot instead of SnapshotAny as the do-nothing special
case for heap_update and heap_delete crosschecks; this seems a little
cleaner even though the behavior is really the same.

There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules
need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about
COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is
dead, it just doesn't know it yet.

list compatibility API by default. While doing this, I decided to keep
the llast() macro around and introduce llast_int() and llast_oid() variants.

In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was
merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that
design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch
fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list
length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer.
A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data
about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer
to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes.
The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope,
be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are
still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of
the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

permissions tests in about the same amount of code as before. Exactly what
the GRANT/REVOKE code ought to be doing is still up for debate, but this
should be helpful in any case, and it already solves an efficiency problem
in executor startup.

remove separate implementation of ALTER TABLE SET WITHOUT OIDS in favor
of doing a regular DROP. Also, cause CREATE TABLE to account completely
correctly for the inheritance status of the OID column. This fixes
problems with dropping OID columns that have dependencies, as noted by
Christopher Kings-Lynne, as well as making sure that you can't drop an
OID column that was inherited from a parent.

for sure...). Rather than relying on the query context of a rangetable
entry to identify what permissions it wants checked, store a full AclMode
mask in each RTE, and check exactly those bits. This allows an RTE
specifying, say, INSERT privilege on a view to be copied into a derived
UPDATE query without changing meaning. Per recent discussion thread.

intended to allow application authors to insulate themselves from
changes to the default value of 'default_with_oids' in future releases
of PostgreSQL.
This patch also fixes a bug in the earlier implementation of the
'default_with_oids' GUC variable: code in gram.y should not examine
the value of GUC variables directly due to synchronization issues.

pointer type when it is not necessary to do so.
For future reference, casting NULL to a pointer type is only necessary
when (a) invoking a function AND either (b) the function has no prototype
OR (c) the function is a varargs function.
|
|
about whether it is applied before or after eval_const_expressions().
I believe there were some corner cases where the system would fail to
recognize that a partial index is applicable because of the previous
inconsistency. Store normal rather than 'implicit AND' representations
of constraints and index predicates in the catalogs.
initdb forced due to representation change of constraints/predicates.

proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted
earlier to pgsql-hackers. pg_dump now always specifies WITH OIDS or
WITHOUT OIDS when dumping a table. The documentation has been updated.
