This completes the project to upgrade our handling of row comparisons.

listed in the column's most-common-values statistics entry. This gives
us an exact selectivity result for the portion of the column population
represented by the MCV list, which can be a big leg up in accuracy if
that's a large fraction of the population. The heuristics involving
pattern contents and prefix are applied only to the part of the population
not included in the MCV list.

qualification when the underlying operator is indexable and useOr is true.
That is, indexkey op ANY (ARRAY[...]) is effectively translated into an
OR combination of one indexscan for each array element. This only works
for bitmap index scans, of course, since regular indexscans no longer
support OR'ing of scans. There are still some loose ends to clean up
before changing 'x IN (list)' to translate as a ScalarArrayOpExpr;
for instance predtest.c ought to be taught about it. But this gets the
basic functionality in place.

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.

valid type information if they are asked to fetch the values part of a
pg_statistic slot; these arguments are unneeded if fetching only the
numbers part. Use this to save a catcache lookup in btcostestimate,
which is looking like a bit of a hotspot in recent profiling. Not a
big savings, but since it's essentially free, might as well do it.

24 hours. This is very helpful for daylight savings time:
select '2005-05-03 00:00:00 EST'::timestamp with time zone + '24 hours';
?column?

Blank line adjustments.

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.

nonconsecutive columns of a multicolumn index, as per discussion around
mid-May (pghackers thread "Best way to scan on-disk bitmaps"). This
turns out to require only minimal changes in btree, and so far as I can
see none at all in GiST. btcostestimate did need some work, but its
original assumption that index selectivity == heap selectivity was
quite bogus even before this.

in its own right. As proposed by Simon Riggs, but with some editorializing
of my own.
|
|
a new PlannerInfo struct, which is passed around instead of the bare
Query in all the planning code. This commit is essentially just a
code-beautification exercise, but it does open the door to making
larger changes to the planner data structures without having to muck
with the widely-known Query struct.

expressions it constructed, causing scalarineqsel to become confused
if the underlying variable was of a domain type. Per report from
Kevin Grittner.

node, as this behavior is now better done as a bitmap OR indexscan.
This allows considerable simplification in nodeIndexscan.c itself as
well as several planner modules concerned with indexscan plan generation.
Also we can improve the sharing of code between regular and bitmap
indexscans, since they are now working with nigh-identical Plan nodes.

indexes. Replace all heap_openr and index_openr calls by heap_open
and index_open. Remove runtime lookups of catalog OID numbers in
various places. Remove relcache's support for looking up system
catalogs by name. Bulky but mostly very boring patch ...
|
|
cases with binary-compatible relabeling. My first try was implicitly
assuming that all operators scalarineqsel is used for have binary-
compatible datatypes on both sides ... which is very wrong of course.
Per report from Michael Fuhr.
|

access: define new index access method functions 'amgetmulti' that can
fetch multiple TIDs per call. (The functions exist but are totally
untested as yet.) Since I was modifying pg_am anyway, remove the
no-longer-needed 'rel' parameter from amcostestimate functions, and
also remove the vestigial amowner column that was creating useless
work for Alvaro's shared-object-dependencies project.
Initdb forced due to changes in pg_am.
|
|
binary-compatible relabeling of one or both operands. examine_variable
should avoid stripping RelabelType from non-variable expressions, so that
they will continue to have the correct type; and convert_to_scalar should
just use that type and ignore the other input type. This isn't perfect
but it beats failing entirely. Per example from Michael Fuhr.

UNICODE => UTF8
ALT => WIN866
WIN => WIN1251
TCVN => WIN1258
The old codes continue to work.

on-the-fly, and thereby avoid blowing out memory when the planner has
underestimated the hash table size. Hash join will now obey the
work_mem limit with some faithfulness. Per my recent proposal
(hash aggregate part isn't done yet though).
|
|
estimate to less than the number of values estimated for any one grouping
Var, as suggested by Manfred. This is intuitively right, and what's
more it puts the plan choices in the subselect regression test back the
way they were before ...
|
|
clamp the estimated number of groups to table row count over 10, instead
of table row count; this reflects a heuristic that people probably won't
group over a near-unique set of columns, and the knowledge that we don't
currently have any way to estimate the correlation of the columns better
than guessing. This change creates a trivial plan change in one of the
regression tests.

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 ...

escapes --- they aren't simply quoted characters. Problem noted by
Antti Salmela. Also fix problem with incorrect handling of multibyte
characters when followed by a quantifier.

estimates when combining the estimates for a range query. As pointed out
by Miquel van Smoorenburg, the existing check for an impossible combined
result would quite possibly fail to detect one default and one non-default
input. It seems better to use the default range query estimate in such
cases. To do so, add a check for an estimate of exactly DEFAULT_INEQ_SEL.
This is a bit ugly because it introduces additional coupling between
clauselist_selectivity and scalarltsel/scalargtsel, but it's not like
there wasn't plenty already...

until Bind is received, so that actual parameter values are visible to the
planner. Make use of the parameter values for estimation purposes (but
don't fold them into the actual plan). This buys back most of the
potential loss of plan quality that ensues from using out-of-line
parameters instead of putting literal values right into the query text.
This patch creates a notion of constant-folding expressions 'for
estimation purposes only', in which case we can be more aggressive than
the normal eval_const_expressions() logic can be. Right now the only
difference in behavior is inserting bound values for Params, but it will
be interesting to look at other possibilities. One that we've seen
come up repeatedly is reducing now() and related functions to current
values, so that queries like ... WHERE timestampcol > now() - '1 day'
have some chance of being planned effectively.

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.

indexTotalCost. I think this may not make any real difference in 7.4,
but it definitely is a problem with CVS tip's new equation.
|
|
corner cases that could stand improvement, but it does all the basic
stuff. A byproduct is that the selectivity routines are no longer
constrained to working on simple Vars; we might in future be able to
improve the behavior for subexpressions that don't match indexes.

Not sure how this mistake evaded detection for so long.

a run-time key (that is, a nonconstant expression compared to the index
variable), the key is evaluated just once per scan, but we were charging
costs as though it were evaluated once per visited index entry.

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.

with index qual clauses in the Path representation. This saves a little
work during createplan and (probably more importantly) allows reuse of
cached selectivity estimates during indexscan planning. Also fix latent
bug: wrong plan would have been generated for a 'special operator' used
in a nestloop-inner-indexscan join qual, because the special operator
would not have gotten into the list of quals to recheck. This bug is
only latent because at present the special-operator code could never
trigger on a join qual, but sooner or later someone will want to do it.
|
|
conditions is overkill; set_union() does the job about as well, and
much more efficiently. Furthermore this avoids assuming that
canonicalize_qual() will check for duplicate clauses at all, which
it may not always do.
|
|
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.

pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.
