1996-09-16There is a bug in the function executor. The backend crashes while trying toMarc G. Fournier
execute an sql function containing an utility command (create, notify, ...). The bug is part in the planner, which returns a number of plans different than the number of commands if there are utility commands in the query, and in part in the function executor which assumes that all commands are normal query commands and causes a SIGSEGV trying to execute commands without plan.

The problem is that the function arguments are not considered as possible key candidates for index scan and so only a sequential scan is possible inside the body of a function. I have therefore made some patches to the optimizer so that indices are now used also by functions. I have also moved the plan debug message from pg_eval to pg_plan so that it is printed also for plans genereated for function execution. I had also to add an index rescan to the executor because it ignored the parameters set in the execution state, they were flagged as runtime variables in ExecInitIndexScan but then never used by the executor so that the scan were always done with any key=1. Very odd. This means that an index rescan is now done twice for each function execution which uses an index, the first time when the index scan is initialized and the second when the actual function arguments are finally available for the execution. I don't know what is the cost of an double index scan but I suppose it is anyway less than the cost of a full sequential scan, at leat for large tables. This is my patch, you must also add -DINDEXSCAN_PATCH in Makefile.global to enable the changes. Submitted by: Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>
1996-08-28Clean up th ecompile process by centralizing the include filesMarc G. Fournier
- code compile tested, but due to a yet unresolved problem with parse.h's creation, compile not completed...

| |This patch fixes a backend crash that happens sometimes when you try to |join on a field that contains NULL in some rows. Postgres tries to |compute a hash value of the field you're joining on, but when the field |is NULL, the pointer it thinks is pointing to the data is really just |pointing to random memory. This forces the hash value of NULL to be 0. | |It seems that nothing matches NULL on joins, even other NULL's (with or |without this patch). Is that what's supposed to happen? |
