2006-01-18Add a new system view, pg_cursors, that displays the currently availableNeil Conway
cursors. Patch from Joachim Wieland, review and ediorialization by Neil Conway. The view lists cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR, using SPI, or via the Bind message of the frontend/backend protocol. This means the view does not list the unnamed portal or the portal created to implement EXECUTE. Because we do list SPI portals, there might be more rows in this view than you might expect if you are using SPI implicitly (e.g. via a procedural language). Per recent discussion on -hackers, the query string included in the view for cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR is based on debug_query_string. That means it is not accurate if multiple queries separated by semicolons are submitted as one query string. However, there doesn't seem a trivial fix for that: debug_query_string is better than nothing. I also changed SPI_cursor_open() to include the source text for the portal it creates: AFAICS there is no reason not to do this. Update the documentation and regression tests, bump the catversion.
2006-01-08Add a new system view, pg_prepared_statements, that can be used toNeil Conway
access information about the prepared statements that are available in the current session. Original patch from Joachim Wieland, various improvements by Neil Conway. The "statement" column of the view contains the literal query string sent by the client, without any rewriting or pretty printing. This means that prepared statements created via SQL will be prefixed with "PREPARE ... AS ", whereas those prepared via the FE/BE protocol will not. That is unfortunate, but discussion on -patches did not yield an efficient way to improve this, and there is some merit in returning exactly what the client sent to the backend. Catalog version bumped, regression tests updated.
2006-01-05Make all command-line options of postmaster and postgres the same. SeePeter Eisentraut
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-01/msg00151.php for the complete plan.
2006-01-05Remove BEOS port.Bruce Momjian
2006-01-04Rearrange backend startup sequence so that ShmemIndexLock can becomeTom Lane
an LWLock instead of a spinlock. This hardly matters on Unix machines but should improve startup performance on Windows (or any port using EXEC_BACKEND). Per previous discussion.
2005-12-31Prefix client-side prepare with '[protocol]' rather than '[client]'.Bruce Momjian
2005-12-30Rename send_rfq to send_ready_for_query.Bruce Momjian
2005-12-30Mmark client-side prepare/bind/execute statements with "[client]" soBruce Momjian
they can be easily distinguished from SQL commands.
2005-12-14Defend against crash while processing Describe Statement or Describe PortalTom Lane
messages, when client attempts to execute these outside a transaction (start one) or in a failed transaction (reject message, except for COMMIT/ROLLBACK statements which we can handle). Per report from Francisco Figueiredo Jr.
2005-11-29Fix EXPLAIN and EXECUTE commands to pass portal parameters through toTom Lane
the executor. This allows, for example, JDBC clients to use '?' bound parameters in these commands. Per gripe from Virag Saksena.
2005-11-22Re-run pgindent, fixing a problem where comment lines after a blankBruce Momjian
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.
2005-11-22 DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS variantAndrew Dunstan
2005-11-21Implement DROP OWNED and REASSIGN OWNED. These new commands facilitate theAlvaro Herrera
process of dropping roles by dropping objects owned by them and privileges granted to them, or giving the owned objects to someone else, through the use of the data stored in the new pg_shdepend catalog. Some refactoring of the GRANT/REVOKE code was needed, as well as ALTER OWNER code. Further cleanup of code duplication in the GRANT code seems necessary. Implemented by me after an idea from Tom Lane, who also provided various kind of implementation advice. Regression tests pass. Some tests for the new functionality are also added, as well as rudimentary documentation.
2005-11-19DROP objecttype IF EXISTS for the following objects:Andrew Dunstan
table view index sequence schema type domain conversion
2005-11-10When in transaction-aborted state, reject Bind message for portals containingTom Lane
anything but transaction-exiting commands (ROLLBACK etc). We already rejected Parse and Execute in such cases, so there seems little point in allowing Bind. This prevents at least an Assert failure, and probably worse things, since there's a lot of infrastructure that doesn't work when not in a live transaction. We can also simplify the Bind logic a bit by rejecting messages with a nonzero number of parameters, instead of the former kluge to silently substitute NULL for each parameter. Per bug #2033 from Joel Stevenson.
2005-11-03Fix a couple of missed None -> DestNone in comments.Tom Lane
2005-11-03Rename the members of CommandDest enum so they don't collide with other uses ofAlvaro Herrera
those names. (Debug and None were pretty bad names anyway.) I hope I catched all uses of the names in comments too.
2005-10-20Postpone pg_timezone_initialize() until after creation of postmaster.pid,Tom Lane
since it can take a fair amount of time and this can confuse boot scripts that expect postmaster.pid to appear quickly. Move initialization of SSL library and preloaded libraries to after that point, too, just for luck. Per reports from Tony Caduto and others.
2005-10-15Standard pgindent run for 8.1.Bruce Momjian
2005-10-13Make stack_base_ptr non-static, for PL/Java.Bruce Momjian
2005-10-06Minor API cleanup for async notifications: we can only register theNeil Conway
current backend in pg_listener, so there is little point in making the PID to register part of async.c's public API. Other minor tweaks.
2005-10-05Code cleanup for log_disconnections(). Patch from Qingqing Zhou,Neil Conway
fixes by Neil Conway.
2005-09-26Log protocol-excute fetch operatation as fetch, rather than execute,Bruce Momjian
adjusted from a patch by Simon.
2005-09-24Suppress signed-vs-unsigned-char warnings.Tom Lane
2005-09-22Suppress port number for unix domain sockets in log connect/disconnectBruce Momjian
messages.
2005-09-19Print proper cause of statement cancel, user interaction or timeout.Bruce Momjian
2005-09-16Update query cancel message:Bruce Momjian

2005-09-02Add log display label for unnamed server-side portals.Bruce Momjian
2005-08-11Autovacuum loose end mop-up. Provide autovacuum-specific vacuum costTom Lane
delay and limit, both as global GUCs and as table-specific entries in pg_autovacuum. stats_reset_on_server_start is now OFF by default, but a reset is forced if we did WAL replay. XID-wrap vacuums do not ANALYZE, but do FREEZE if it's a template database. Alvaro Herrera
2005-08-08Cause ShutdownPostgres to do a normal transaction abort during backendTom Lane
exit, instead of trying to take shortcuts. Introduce some additional shutdown callback routines to eliminate kluges like having ProcKill be responsible for shutting down the buffer manager. Ensure that the order of operations during shutdown is predictable and what you would expect given the module layering.
2005-08-01Add ALTER object SET SCHEMA capability for a limited but useful set ofTom Lane
object kinds (tables, functions, types). Documentation is not here yet. Original code by Bernd Helmle, extensive rework by Bruce Momjian and Tom Lane.
2005-07-31Add per-user and per-database connection limit options.Tom Lane
This patch also includes preliminary update of pg_dumpall for roles. Petr Jelinek, with review by Bruce Momjian and Tom Lane.
2005-07-21Add time/date macros for code clarity:Bruce Momjian
#define DAYS_PER_YEAR 365.25 #define MONTHS_PER_YEAR 12 #define DAYS_PER_MONTH 30 #define HOURS_PER_DAY 24
2005-07-14Integrate autovacuum functionality into the backend. There's still aTom Lane
few loose ends to be dealt with, but it seems to work. Alvaro Herrera, based on the contrib code by Matthew O'Connor.
2005-07-10Change typreceive function API so that receive functions get the sameTom Lane
optional arguments as text input functions, ie, typioparam OID and atttypmod. Make all the datatypes that use typmod enforce it the same way in typreceive as they do in typinput. This fixes a problem with failure to enforce length restrictions during COPY FROM BINARY.
2005-07-04Arrange for the postmaster (and standalone backends, initdb, etc) toTom Lane
chdir into PGDATA and subsequently use relative paths instead of absolute paths to access all files under PGDATA. This seems to give a small performance improvement, and it should make the system more robust against naive DBAs doing things like moving a database directory that has a live postmaster in it. Per recent discussion.
2005-06-30Improve the checkpoint signaling mechanism so that the bgwriter can tellTom Lane
the difference between checkpoints forced due to WAL segment consumption and checkpoints forced for other reasons (such as CREATE DATABASE). Avoid generating 'checkpoints are occurring too frequently' messages when the checkpoint wasn't caused by WAL segment consumption. Per gripe from Chris K-L.
2005-06-29Clean up the rather historically encumbered interface to now() andTom Lane
current time: provide a GetCurrentTimestamp() function that returns current time in the form of a TimestampTz, instead of separate time_t and microseconds fields. This is what all the callers really want anyway, and it eliminates low-level dependencies on AbsoluteTime, which is a deprecated datatype that will have to disappear eventually.
2005-06-28Replace pg_shadow and pg_group by new role-capable catalogs pg_authidTom Lane
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.
2005-06-22Make REINDEX DATABASE do what one would expect, namely reindex all indexesTom Lane
in the database. The old behavior (reindex system catalogs only) is now available as REINDEX SYSTEM. I did not add the complementary REINDEX USER case since there did not seem to be consensus for this, but it would be trivial to add later. Per recent discussions.
2005-06-22Fix the mechanism for reporting the original table OID and column numberTom Lane
of columns of a query result so that it can "see through" cursors and prepared statements. Per gripe a couple months back from John DeSoi.
2005-06-17Two-phase commit. Original patch by Heikki Linnakangas, with additionalTom Lane
hacking by Alvaro Herrera and Tom Lane.
2005-06-14Add pg_postmaster_start_time() function.Bruce Momjian

2005-06-03Revise handling of dropped columns in JOIN alias lists to avoid aTom Lane
performance problem pointed out by phil@vodafone: to wit, we were spending O(N^2) time to check dropped-ness in an N-deep join tree, even in the case where the tree was freshly constructed and couldn't possibly mention any dropped columns. Instead of recursing in get_rte_attribute_is_dropped(), change the data structure definition: the joinaliasvars list of a JOIN RTE must have a NULL Const instead of a Var at any position that references a now-dropped column. This costs nothing during normal parse-rewrite-plan path, and instead we have a linear-time update to make when loading a stored rule that might contain now-dropped columns. While at it, move the responsibility for acquring locks on relations referenced by rules into this separate function (which I therefore chose to call AcquireRewriteLocks). This saves effort --- namely, duplicated lock grabs in parser and rewriter --- in the normal path at a cost of one extra non-locked heap_open() in the stored-rule path; seems a good tradeoff. A fringe benefit is that it is now *much* clearer that we acquire lock on relations referenced in rules before we make any rewriter decisions based on their properties. (I don't know of any bug of that ilk, but it wasn't exactly clear before.)
2005-06-02Push enable/disable of notify and catchup interrupts all the way downTom Lane
to just around the bare recv() call that gets a command from the client. The former placement in PostgresMain was unsafe because the intermediate processing layers (especially SSL) use facilities such as malloc that are not necessarily re-entrant. Per report from counterstorm.com.
2005-06-01Fix log_statement to properly recognize SELECT INTO and CREATE TABLE ASBruce Momjian
and DDL statements. Backpatch fix to 8.0.X. Per report from Murthy Kambhampaty
2005-05-24Log queries for client-side prepare/execute. Simon RiggsBruce Momjian
Log prepare query during execute. Bruce Momjian
2005-05-01Change CREATE TYPE to require datatype output and send functions to haveTom Lane
only one argument. (Per recent discussion, the option to accept multiple arguments is pretty useless for user-defined types, and would be a likely source of security holes if it was used.) Simplify call sites of output/send functions to not bother passing more than one argument.
2005-04-28Implement sharable row-level locks, and use them for foreign key referencesTom Lane
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. Alvaro Herrera and Tom Lane.
2005-04-21Rethink original decision to use AND/OR Expr nodes to represent bitmapTom Lane
logic operations during planning. Seems cleaner to create two new Path node types, instead --- this avoids duplication of cost-estimation code. Also, create an enable_bitmapscan GUC parameter to control use of bitmap plans.
