2004-01-14Fix permission-checking bug reported by Tim Burgess 10-Feb-03 (this timeTom Lane
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. initdb forced due to change of stored rule representation.

2003-10-01Repair RI trigger visibility problems (this time for sure ;-)) per recentTom Lane
discussion on pgsql-hackers: in READ COMMITTED mode we just have to force a QuerySnapshot update in the trigger, but in SERIALIZABLE mode we have to run the scan under a current snapshot and then complain if any rows would be updated/deleted that are not visible in the transaction snapshot.
2003-09-25Get rid of ReferentialIntegritySnapshotOverride by extending Executor APITom Lane
to allow es_snapshot to be set to SnapshotNow rather than a query snapshot. This solves a bug reported by Wade Klaver, wherein triggers fired as a result of RI cascade updates could misbehave.
2003-09-25Message editing: remove gratuitous variations in message wording, standardizePeter Eisentraut
terms, add some clarifications, fix some untranslatable attempts at dynamic message building.
2003-08-19Improve dynahash.c's API so that caller can specify the comparison functionTom Lane
as well as the hash function (formerly the comparison function was hardwired as memcmp()). This makes it possible to eliminate the special-purpose hashtable management code in execGrouping.c in favor of using dynahash to manage tuple hashtables; which is a win because dynahash knows how to expand a hashtable when the original size estimate was too small, whereas the special-purpose code was too stupid to do that. (See recent gripe from Stephan Szabo about poor performance when hash table size estimate is way off.) Free side benefit: when using string_hash, the default comparison function is now strncmp() instead of memcmp(). This should eliminate some part of the overhead associated with larger NAMEDATALEN values.

2003-06-27Create real array comparison functions (that use the element datatype'sTom Lane
comparison functions), replacing the highly bogus bitwise array_eq. Create a btree index opclass for ANYARRAY --- it is now possible to create indexes on array columns. Arrange to cache the results of catalog lookups across multiple array operations, instead of repeating the lookups on every call. Add string_to_array and array_to_string functions. Remove singleton_array, array_accum, array_assign, and array_subscript functions, since these were for proof-of-concept and not intended to become supported functions. Minor adjustments to behavior in some corner cases with empty or zero-dimensional arrays. Joe Conway (with some editorializing by Tom Lane).

2003-06-22Revise hash join and hash aggregation code to use the same datatype-Tom Lane
specific hash functions used by hash indexes, rather than the old not-datatype-aware ComputeHashFunc routine. This makes it safe to do hash joining on several datatypes that previously couldn't use hashing. The sets of datatypes that are hash indexable and hash joinable are now exactly the same, whereas before each had some that weren't in the other.
2003-06-06Implement outer-level aggregates to conform to the SQL spec, withTom Lane
extensions to support our historical behavior. An aggregate belongs to the closest query level of any of the variables in its argument, or the current query level if there are no variables (e.g., COUNT(*)). The implementation involves adding an agglevelsup field to Aggref, and treating outer aggregates like outer variables at planning time.
2003-04-08First phase of work on array improvements. ARRAY[x,y,z] constructorTom Lane
expressions, ARRAY(sub-SELECT) expressions, some array functions. Polymorphic functions using ANYARRAY/ANYELEMENT argument and return types. Some regression tests in place, documentation is lacking. Joe Conway, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.
2003-02-09Make further use of new bitmapset code: executor's chgParam, extParam,Tom Lane
locParam lists can be converted to bitmapsets to speed updating. Also, replace 'locParam' with 'allParam', which contains all the paramIDs relevant to the node (i.e., the union of extParam and locParam); this saves a step during SetChangedParamList() without costing anything elsewhere.
2003-01-12First cut at implementing IN (and NOT IN) via hashtables. There isTom Lane
more to be done yet, but this is a good start.
2003-01-10Further tweaking of parsetree & plantree representation of SubLinks.Tom Lane
Simplify SubLink by storing just a List of operator OIDs, instead of a list of incomplete OpExprs --- that was a bizarre and bulky choice, with no redeeming social value since we have to build new OpExprs anyway when forming the plan tree.
2003-01-09Adjust parser so that 'x NOT IN (subselect)' is converted toTom Lane
'NOT (x IN (subselect))', that is 'NOT (x = ANY (subselect))', rather than 'x <> ALL (subselect)' as we formerly did. This opens the door to optimizing NOT IN the same way as IN, whereas there's no hope of optimizing the expression using <>. Also, convert 'x <> ALL (subselect)' to the NOT(IN) style, so that the optimization will be available when processing rules dumped by older Postgres versions. initdb forced due to small change in SubLink node representation.
2002-12-26Don't try to free executor state of an InitPlan early --- this breaksTom Lane
EXPLAIN ANALYZE. (Premature optimization is the root of all evil?)
2002-12-15Revise executor APIs so that all per-query state structure is built inTom Lane
a per-query memory context created by CreateExecutorState --- and destroyed by FreeExecutorState. This provides a final solution to the longstanding problem of memory leaked by various ExecEndNode calls.
2002-12-14Clean up plantree representation of SubPlan-s --- SubLink does not appearTom Lane
in the planned representation of a subplan at all any more, only SubPlan. This means subselect.c doesn't scribble on its input anymore, which seems like a good thing; and there are no longer three different possible interpretations of a SubLink. Simplify node naming and improve comments in primnodes.h. No change to stored rules, though.
2002-12-13Phase 3 of read-only-plans project: ExecInitExpr now builds expressionTom Lane
execution state trees, and ExecEvalExpr takes an expression state tree not an expression plan tree. The plan tree is now read-only as far as the executor is concerned. Next step is to begin actually exploiting this property.
2002-12-12Phase 2 of read-only-plans project: restructure expression-tree nodesTom Lane
so that all executable expression nodes inherit from a common supertype Expr. This is somewhat of an exercise in code purity rather than any real functional advance, but getting rid of the extra Oper or Func node formerly used in each operator or function call should provide at least a little space and speed improvement. initdb forced by changes in stored-rules representation.
2002-12-05Phase 1 of read-only-plans project: cause executor state nodes to pointTom Lane
to plan nodes, not vice-versa. All executor state nodes now inherit from struct PlanState. Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links). The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway. No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.
2002-11-26Use Params, rather than run-time-modified Const nodes, to handleTom Lane
sublink results and COPY's domain constraint checking. A Const that isn't really constant is just a Bad Idea(tm). Remove hacks in parse_coerce and other places that were needed because of the former klugery.

2000-10-05Reimplementation of UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT. INTERSECT/EXCEPT now meet theTom Lane
SQL92 semantics, including support for ALL option. All three can be used in subqueries and views. DISTINCT and ORDER BY work now in views, too. This rewrite fixes many problems with cross-datatype UNIONs and INSERT/SELECT where the SELECT yields different datatypes than the INSERT needs. I did that by making UNION subqueries and SELECT in INSERT be treated like subselects-in-FROM, thereby allowing an extra level of targetlist where the datatype conversions can be inserted safely. INITDB NEEDED!
2000-08-24SQL-language functions are now callable in ordinary fmgr contexts ...Tom Lane
for example, an SQL function can be used in a functional index. (I make no promises about speed, but it'll work ;-).) Clean up and simplify handling of functions returning sets.
2000-07-12First stage of reclaiming memory in executor by resetting short-termTom Lane
memory contexts. Currently, only leaks in expressions executed as quals or projections are handled. Clean up some old dead cruft in executor while at it --- unused fields in state nodes, that sort of thing.

2000-03-21Correct typo in error message.Tom Lane
2000-03-09Redo permissions-checking code so that it does the right thing at APPENDTom Lane
nodes. The former version failed to check permissions of relations that were referenced in second and later clauses of UNIONs, and it did not check permissions of tables referenced via inheritance.

1999-11-15Clean up possible memory leakage in nodeSubplanTom Lane
1999-11-15Implement subselects in target lists. Also, relax requirement thatTom Lane
subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator. That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...), but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK. To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to. But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side row expression.
1999-11-12Fix ExecSubPlan to handle nulls per the SQL spec --- it didn't combineTom Lane
nulls with non-nulls using proper three-valued boolean logic. Also clean up ExecQual to make it clearer that ExecQual *does* follow the SQL spec for boolean nulls. See '[BUGS] (null) != (null)' thread around 10/26/99 for more detail.
1999-09-24Several changes here, not very related but touching some of the same files.Tom Lane
* Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22). * Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info, and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex hashtable that was used before). Add databaseOID to PROC structs. * Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of a database containing running backends. (It's a little tricky to prevent a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up its database in pg_database. My solution is to recheck that the DB is OK at the end of InitPostgres. It may not be a 100% solution, but it's a lot better than no interlock at all...) * In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from mdblindwrt(). * Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current sources :-(. You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.
1999-08-25Revise implementation of SubLinks so that there is a consistent,Tom Lane
documented intepretation of the lefthand and oper fields. Fix a number of obscure problems while at it --- for example, the old code failed if the parser decided to insert a type-coercion function just below the operator of a SubLink. CAUTION: this will break stored rules that contain subplans. You may need to initdb.
