2017-06-05Fix ALTER SUBSCRIPTION grammar ambiguityPeter Eisentraut
There was a grammar ambiguity between SET PUBLICATION name REFRESH and SET PUBLICATION SKIP REFRESH, because SKIP is not a reserved word. To resolve that, fold the refresh choice into the WITH options. Refreshing is the default now. Reported-by: tushar <tushar.ahuja@enterprisedb.com>
2017-05-29Allow NumericOnly to be "+ FCONST".Tom Lane
The NumericOnly grammar production accepted ICONST, + ICONST, - ICONST, FCONST, and - FCONST, but for some reason not + FCONST. This led to strange inconsistencies like regression=# set random_page_cost = +4; SET regression=# set random_page_cost = 4000000000; SET regression=# set random_page_cost = +4000000000; ERROR: syntax error at or near "4000000000" (because 4000000000 is too large to be an ICONST). While there's no actual functional reason to need to write a "+", if we allow it for integers it seems like we should allow it for numerics too. It's been like that forever, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/30908.1496006184@sss.pgh.pa.us
2017-05-28Code review focused on new node types added by partitioning support.Tom Lane
Fix failure to check that we got a plain Const from const-simplification of a coercion request. This is the cause of bug #14666 from Tian Bing: there is an int4 to money cast, but it's only stable not immutable (because of dependence on lc_monetary), resulting in a FuncExpr that the code was miserably unequipped to deal with, or indeed even to notice that it was failing to deal with. Add test cases around this coercion behavior. In view of the above, sprinkle the code liberally with castNode() macros, in hope of catching the next such bug a bit sooner. Also, change some functions that were randomly declared to take Node* to take more specific pointer types. And change some struct fields that were declared Node* but could be given more specific types, allowing removal of assorted explicit casts. Place PARTITION_MAX_KEYS check a bit closer to the code it's protecting. Likewise check only-one-key-for-list-partitioning restriction in a less random place. Avoid not-per-project-style usages like !strcmp(...). Fix assorted failures to avoid scribbling on the input of parse transformation. I'm not sure how necessary this is, but it's entirely silly for these functions to be expending cycles to avoid that and not getting it right. Add guards against partitioning on system columns. Put backend/nodes/ support code into an order that matches handling of these node types elsewhere. Annotate the fact that somebody added location fields to PartitionBoundSpec and PartitionRangeDatum but forgot to handle them in outfuncs.c/readfuncs.c. This is fairly harmless for production purposes (since readfuncs.c would just substitute -1 anyway) but it's still bogus. It's not worth forcing a post-beta1 initdb just to fix this, but if we have another reason to force initdb before 10.0, we should go back and clean this up. Contrariwise, somebody added location fields to PartitionElem and PartitionSpec but forgot to teach exprLocation() about them. Consolidate duplicative code in transformPartitionBound(). Improve a couple of error messages. Improve assorted commentary. Re-pgindent the files touched by this patch; this affects a few comment blocks that must have been added quite recently.

2017-05-12Change CREATE STATISTICS syntaxAlvaro Herrera
Previously, we had the WITH clause in the middle of the command, where you'd specify both generic options as well as statistic types. Few people liked this, so this commit changes it to remove the WITH keyword from that clause and makes it accept statistic types only. (We currently don't have any generic options, but if we invent in the future, we will gain a new WITH clause, probably at the end of the command). Also, the column list is now specified without parens, which makes the whole command look more similar to a SELECT command. This change will let us expand the command to supporting expressions (not just columns names) as well as multiple tables and their join conditions. Tom added lots of code comments and fixed some parts of the CREATE STATISTICS reference page, too; more changes in this area are forthcoming. He also fixed a potential problem in the alter_generic regression test, reducing verbosity on a cascaded drop to avoid dependency on message ordering, as we do in other tests. Tom also closed a security bug: we documented that table ownership was required in order to create a statistics object on it, but didn't actually implement it. Implement tab-completion for statistics objects. This can stand some more improvement.

2017-05-08Remove support for password_encryption='off' / 'plain'.Heikki Linnakangas
Storing passwords in plaintext hasn't been a good idea for a very long time, if ever. Now seems like a good time to finally forbid it, since we're messing with this in PostgreSQL 10 anyway. Remove the CREATE/ALTER USER UNENCRYPTED PASSSWORD 'foo' syntax, since storing passwords unencrypted is no longer supported. ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'foo' is still accepted, but ENCRYPTED is now just a noise-word, it does the same as just PASSWORD 'foo'. Likewise, remove the --unencrypted option from createuser, but accept --encrypted as a no-op for backward compatibility. AFAICS, --encrypted was a no-op even before this patch, because createuser encrypted the password before sending it to the server even if --encrypted was not specified. It added the ENCRYPTED keyword to the SQL command, but since the password was already in encrypted form, it didn't make any difference. The documentation was not clear on whether that was intended or not, but it's moot now. Also, while password_encryption='on' is still accepted as an alias for 'md5', it is now marked as hidden, so that it is not listed as an accepted value in error hints, for example. That's not directly related to removing 'plain', but it seems better this way.

2017-04-27Remove unnecessairly duplicated gram.y productionsStephen Frost
Declarative partitioning duplicated the TypedTableElement productions, evidently to remove the need to specify WITH OPTIONS when creating partitions. Instead, simply make WITH OPTIONS optional in the TypedTableElement production and remove all of the duplicate PartitionElement-related productions. This change simplifies the syntax and makes WITH OPTIONS optional when adding defaults, constraints or storage parameters to columns when creating either typed tables or partitions. Also update pg_dump to no longer include WITH OPTIONS, since it's not necessary, and update the documentation to reflect that WITH OPTIONS is now optional.
2017-04-16Sync addRangeTableEntryForENR() with its peer functions.Tom Lane
addRangeTableEntryForENR had a check for pstate != NULL, which Coverity pointed out was rather useless since it'd already dereferenced pstate before that. More to the point, we'd established policy in commit bc93ac12c that we'd require non-NULL pstate for all addRangeTableEntryFor* functions; this test was evidently copied-and-pasted from some older version of one of those functions. Make it look more like the others. In passing, make an elog message look more like the rest of the code, too. Michael Paquier
2017-04-10Improve castNode notation by introducing list-extraction-specific variants.Tom Lane
This extends the castNode() notation introduced by commit 5bcab1114 to provide, in one step, extraction of a list cell's pointer and coercion to a concrete node type. For example, "lfirst_node(Foo, lc)" is the same as "castNode(Foo, lfirst(lc))". Almost half of the uses of castNode that have appeared so far include a list extraction call, so this is pretty widely useful, and it saves a few more keystrokes compared to the old way. As with the previous patch, back-patch the addition of these macros to pg_list.h, so that the notation will be available when back-patching. Patch by me, after an idea of Andrew Gierth's.

2017-03-31Add infrastructure to support EphemeralNamedRelation references.Kevin Grittner
A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but provision is made to add more types fairly easily. An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the catalogs by relid. Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code run through SPI. The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate commit. An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that possibility, so one is added.

2017-03-31Revert "Allow ON CONFLICT .. DO NOTHING on a partitioned table."Robert Haas
This reverts commit 8355a011a0124bdf7ccbada206a967d427039553, which turns out to have been a misguided effort. We can't really support this in a partitioning hierarchy after all for exactly the reasons stated in the documentation removed by that commit. It's still possible to use ON CONFLICT .. DO NOTHING (or for that matter ON CONFLICT .. DO UPDATE) on individual partitions if desired, but but to allow this on a partitioned table implies that we have some way of evaluating uniqueness across the whole partitioning hierarchy, which is false. Shinoda Noriyoshi noticed that the old code was crashing (which we could fix, though not in a nice way) and Amit Langote realized that this was indicative of a fundamental problem with the commit being reverted here.

2017-03-28Cast result of copyObject() to correct typePeter Eisentraut
copyObject() is declared to return void *, which allows easily assigning the result independent of the input, but it loses all type checking. If the compiler supports typeof or something similar, cast the result to the input type. This creates a greater amount of type safety. In some cases, where the result is assigned to a generic type such as Node * or Expr *, new casts are now necessary, but in general casts are now unnecessary in the normal case and indicate that something unusual is happening.

2017-03-24Implement multivariate n-distinct coefficientsAlvaro Herrera
Add support for explicitly declared statistic objects (CREATE STATISTICS), allowing collection of statistics on more complex combinations that individual table columns. Companion commands DROP STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are added too. All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions. This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient on user-specified sets of columns in a single table. This is useful to estimate number of distinct groups in GROUP BY and DISTINCT clauses; estimation errors there can cause over-allocation of memory in hashed aggregates, for instance, so it's a worthwhile problem to solve. A new special pseudo-type pg_ndistinct is used. (num-distinct estimation was deemed sufficiently useful by itself that this is worthwhile even if no further statistic types are added immediately; so much so that another version of essentially the same functionality was submitted by Kyotaro Horiguchi: https://postgr.es/m/20150828.173334.114731693.horiguchi.kyotaro@lab.ntt.co.jp though this commit does not use that code.)

2017-03-23ICU supportPeter Eisentraut
Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library provides the collation data. The existing choices are default and libc, and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library. The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the provider-specific locale handles. Users of locale information are changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use. Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same. This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt indexes and other structures. This is currently only supported by ICU-provided collations. initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale -a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu" appended. Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named collations. The global database locales are still always libc-provided. ICU support is enabled by configure --with-icu.

2017-03-08Support XMLTABLE query expressionAlvaro Herrera
XMLTABLE is defined by the SQL/XML standard as a feature that allows turning XML-formatted data into relational form, so that it can be used as a <table primary> in the FROM clause of a query. This new construct provides significant simplicity and performance benefit for XML data processing; what in a client-side custom implementation was reported to take 20 minutes can be executed in 400ms using XMLTABLE. (The same functionality was said to take 10 seconds using nested PostgreSQL XPath function calls, and 5 seconds using XMLReader under PL/Python). The implemented syntax deviates slightly from what the standard requires. First, the standard indicates that the PASSING clause is optional and that multiple XML input documents may be given to it; we make it mandatory and accept a single document only. Second, we don't currently support a default namespace to be specified. This implementation relies on a new executor node based on a hardcoded method table. (Because the grammar is fixed, there is no extensibility in the current approach; further constructs can be implemented on top of this such as JSON_TABLE, but they require changes to core code.)

The SQL standard says that you should be able to write "CHARACTER SET foo" as part of the declaration of a char-type column. We don't implement that, but a rough form of support has existed in gram.y since commit f10b63923. That's now sat there for nigh 20 years without anyone fleshing it out --- and even if someone did, the contemplated approach of having separate data type name(s) for every character set certainly isn't what we'd do today. Let's just remove the grammar production; if anyone is ever motivated to work on this, reinventing the grammar support is a trivial fraction of what they'd have to do.

2017-03-06Remove objname/objargs split for referring to objectsPeter Eisentraut
In simpler times, it might have worked to refer to all kinds of objects by a list of name components and an optional argument list. But this doesn't work for all objects, which has resulted in a collection of hacks to place various other nodes types into these fields, which have to be unpacked at the other end. This makes it also weird to represent lists of such things in the grammar, because they would have to be lists of singleton lists, to make the unpacking work consistently. The other problem is that keeping separate name and args fields makes it awkward to deal with lists of functions. Change that by dropping the objargs field and have objname, renamed to object, be a generic Node, which can then be flexibly assigned and managed using the normal Node mechanisms. In many cases it will still be a List of names, in some cases it will be a string Value, for types it will be the existing Typename, for functions it will now use the existing ObjectWithArgs node type. Some of the more obscure object types still use somewhat arbitrary nested lists. Reviewed-by: Jim Nasby <Jim.Nasby@BlueTreble.com> Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>

This stores a data type, required to be an integer type, with the sequence. The sequences min and max values default to the range supported by the type, and they cannot be set to values exceeding that range. The internal implementation of the sequence is not affected. Change the serial types to create sequences of the appropriate type. This makes sure that the min and max values of the sequence for a serial column match the range of values supported by the table column. So the sequence can no longer overflow the table column. This also makes monitoring for sequence exhaustion/wraparound easier, which currently requires various contortions to cross-reference the sequences with the table columns they are used with. This commit also effectively reverts the pg_sequence column reordering in f3b421da5f4addc95812b9db05a24972b8fd9739, because the new seqtypid column allows us to fill the hole in the struct and create a more natural overall column ordering.

When I wrote commit ab1f0c822, I really missed the castNode() macro that Peter E. had proposed shortly before. This back-fills the uses I would have put it to. It's probably not all that significant, but there are more assertions here than there were before, and conceivably they will help catch any bugs associated with those representation changes.

Those could have been converted as well, but Peter has proposed another notational improvement that would handle copyObject cases automatically, so I let that be for now.
