2007-01-31Rewrite uuid input and output routines to avoid dependency on theNeil Conway
nonportable "hh" sprintf(3) length modifier. Instead, do the parsing and output by hand. The code to do this isn't ideal, but this is an interim measure anyway: the uuid type should probably use the in-memory struct layout specified by RFC 4122. For now, this patch should hopefully rectify the buildfarm failures for the uuid test. Along the way, re-add pg_cast entries for uuid <-> varchar, which I mistakenly removed earlier, and bump the catversion.
2007-01-31Revert gincostestimate changes.Teodor Sigaev
2007-01-31Allow GIN's extractQuery method to signal that nothing can satisfy the query.Teodor Sigaev
In this case extractQuery should returns -1 as nentries. This changes prototype of extractQuery method to use int32* instead of uint32* for nentries argument. Based on that gincostestimate may see two corner cases: nothing will be found or seqscan should be used. Per proposal at http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2007-01/msg01581.php PS tsearch_core patch should be sightly modified to support changes, but I'm waiting a verdict about reviewing of tsearch_core patch.
2007-01-30Update documentation for pg_get_serial_sequence() function.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-28Rename the uuid_t type to pg_uuid_t, to avoid a conflict with anyNeil Conway
definitions of uuid_t that may be provided by the system headers. This should hopefully fix the Win32 build problems reported by Magnus.
2007-01-28Add a new builtin type, "uuid". This implements a UUID type, similar toNeil Conway
that defined in RFC 4122. This patch includes the basic implementation, plus regression tests. Documentation and perhaps some additional functionality will come later. Catversion bumped. Patch from Gevik Babakhani; review from Peter, Tom, and myself.
2007-01-28Dept of second thoughts: the IQ of estimate_array_length() needs to beTom Lane
kept on par with that of scalararraysel(), else estimates that should track might not. Hence teach it about binary-compatible cases, too.
2007-01-28Fix scalararraysel() to cope with binary-compatible cases, such as text[]Tom Lane
versus varchar[]. This oversight probably explains Ryan Holmes' recent complaint --- he was getting a generic selectivity estimate instead of anything intelligent.
2007-01-27Reactivate libxml memory management via palloc, now that I think I'vePeter Eisentraut
classified the conditions under which this is safe to do (see source code comment).
2007-01-27Add trailing zero byte in Unicode codepoint conversion.Peter Eisentraut
2007-01-25Various fixes in the logic of XML functions:Peter Eisentraut
- Add new SQL command SET XML OPTION (also available via regular GUC) to control the DOCUMENT vs. CONTENT option in implicit parsing and serialization operations. - Subtle corrections in the handling of the standalone property in xmlroot(). - Allow xmlroot() to work on content fragments. - Subtle corrections in the handling of the version property in xmlconcat(). - Code refactoring for producing XML declarations.
2007-01-25Properly detoast access to bytea field pg_trigger.tgargs. Old codeBruce Momjian
might cause server crash. Backpatch to 8.2.X.
2007-01-23Simplify handling of XML error messages: Just use the string provided byPeter Eisentraut
libxml as the detail message. As per <http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-12/msg01087.php>. For converting error codes to messages, we only need to cover those codes that we raise ourselves now.
2007-01-22Put back planner's ability to cache the results of mergejoinscansel(),Tom Lane
which I had removed in the first cut of the EquivalenceClass rewrite to simplify that patch a little. But it's still important --- in a four-way join problem mergejoinscansel() was eating about 40% of the planning time according to gprof. Also, improve the EquivalenceClass code to re-use join RestrictInfos rather than generating fresh ones for each join considered. This saves some memory space but more importantly improves the effectiveness of caching planning info in RestrictInfos.
2007-01-20Simplify pg_am representation of ordering-capable access methods:Tom Lane
provide just a boolean 'amcanorder', instead of fields that specify the sort operator strategy numbers. We have decided to require ordering-capable AMs to use btree-compatible strategy numbers, so the old fields are overkill (and indeed misleading about what's allowed).
2007-01-20Make setseed() return void, rather than an int4 without any use. PerNeil Conway
pgsql-patches discussion of September 20, 2006. Bump the catversion.
2007-01-20Refactor planner's pathkeys data structure to create a separate, explicitTom Lane
representation of equivalence classes of variables. This is an extensive rewrite, but it brings a number of benefits: * planner no longer fails in the presence of "incomplete" operator families that don't offer operators for every possible combination of datatypes. * avoid generating and then discarding redundant equality clauses. * remove bogus assumption that derived equalities always use operators named "=". * mergejoins can work with a variety of sort orders (e.g., descending) now, instead of tying each mergejoinable operator to exactly one sort order. * better recognition of redundant sort columns. * can make use of equalities appearing underneath an outer join.
2007-01-20Remove remains of old depend target.Peter Eisentraut
2007-01-20Fix xmlconcat by properly merging the XML declarations. Add aggregatePeter Eisentraut
function xmlagg.
2007-01-20Add missing copyright blurb, make ruleutils.c use the standard layoutNeil Conway
for its header comment.
2007-01-19Add support for converting binary values (i.e. bytea) into xml values,Peter Eisentraut
with new GUC parameter "xmlbinary" that controls the output encoding, as per SQL/XML standard.
2007-01-18Clean up encoding issues in the xml type: In text mode, encodingPeter Eisentraut
declarations are ignored and removed, in binary mode they are honored as specified by the XML standard.
2007-01-16Implement width_bucket() for the float8 data type.Neil Conway
The implementation is somewhat ugly logic-wise, but I don't see an easy way to make it more concise. When writing this, I noticed that my previous implementation of width_bucket() doesn't handle NaN correctly: postgres=# select width_bucket('NaN', 1, 5, 5); width_bucket -------------- 6 (1 row) AFAICS SQL:2003 does not define a NaN value, so it doesn't address how width_bucket() should behave here. The patch changes width_bucket() so that ereport(ERROR) is raised if NaN is specified for the operand or the lower or upper bounds to width_bucket(). For float8, NaN is disallowed for any of the floating-point inputs, and +/- infinity is disallowed for the histogram bounds (but allowed for the operand). Update docs and regression tests, bump the catversion.
2007-01-14Fix reverse compilation of IS DOCUMENT expression.Peter Eisentraut
2007-01-14Add support for xmlval IS DOCUMENT expression.Peter Eisentraut
2007-01-12Fix handling of CC (century) format spec in to_date/to_char. According toTom Lane
standard convention the 21st century runs from 2001-2100, not 2000-2099, so make it work like that. Per bug #2885 from Akio Iwaasa. Backpatch to 8.2, but no further, since this is really a definitional change; users of older branches are probably more interested in stability.
2007-01-12Use XML output escaping also in XMLFOREST.Peter Eisentraut
2007-01-12Allow for arbitrary data types as content in XMLELEMENT. The originalPeter Eisentraut
coercion to type xml was a mistake. Escape values so they are valid XML character data.
2007-01-10Use libxml's xmlwriter API for producing XML elements, instead of doingPeter Eisentraut
our own printing dance. This does a better job of quoting and escaping the values.
2007-01-09Support ORDER BY ... NULLS FIRST/LAST, and add ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/NULLS LASTTom Lane
per-column options for btree indexes. The planner's support for this is still pretty rudimentary; it does not yet know how to plan mergejoins with nondefault ordering options. The documentation is pretty rudimentary, too. I'll work on improving that stuff later. Note incompatible change from prior behavior: ORDER BY ... USING will now be rejected if the operator is not a less-than or greater-than member of some btree opclass. This prevents less-than-sane behavior if an operator that doesn't actually define a proper sort ordering is selected.
2007-01-07Some fine-tuning of xmlpi in corner cases:Peter Eisentraut
- correct error codes - do syntax checks in correct order - strip leading spaces of argument
2007-01-07Allow XML fragment to contain a XML declaration. For that, we need a smallPeter Eisentraut
hand-crafted parser for the XML declaration, because libxml doesn't seem to allow this.
2007-01-06Apply fix so pow() and exp() ERANGE is used only if result is not 0.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-06Replace xmlroot with a properly functioning version that parses the value,Peter Eisentraut
sets the items, and serializes the value back (rather than adding an arbitrary number of XML preambles as before). The libxml memory management via palloc had to be disabled because it crashes when libxml tries to access memory that was helpfully freed earlier by PostgreSQL. This needs further thought.
2007-01-06Check for ERANGE in exp() as well.Bruce Momjian
Improve release docs for ecpg regression tests.
2007-01-06Improve dpow() check for ERANGE overflow for HPPA.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-06Put back ERANGE test in dpow(). There are platforms that need this,Tom Lane
like my HPPA ...

back-stamped for this.

2007-01-04Simplify assignment of Inf for pow Nan (don't worry about the sign).Bruce Momjian
2007-01-03Fix regex_fixed_prefix() to cope reasonably well with regex patterns of theTom Lane
form '^(foo)$'. Before, these could never be optimized into indexscans. The recent changes to make psql and pg_dump generate such patterns (for \d commands and -t and related switches, respectively) therefore represented a big performance hit for people with large pg_class catalogs, as seen in recent gripe from Erik Jones. While at it, be more paranoid about case-sensitivity checking in multibyte encodings, and fix some other corner cases in which a regex might be interpreted too liberally.
2007-01-03Update pow() tests to check for both errno==EDOM _and_ result==Nan, andBruce Momjian
document why this happens. Remove exp() errno check because not needed.
2007-01-03Fix erroneous error tests in pow/exp.Tom Lane
2007-01-03Attempt to return proper overflow/underflow messages for platforms thatBruce Momjian
only return Nan and set errno for pow/exp overflow/underflow.
2007-01-03For float4/8, remove errno checks for pow() and exp() because only someBruce Momjian
platforms set errno, and we already have a check macro that detects under/overflow, so there is no reason for platform-specific code anymore.
2007-01-03Widen the money type to 64 bits.D'Arcy J.M. Cain
2007-01-02Adjust network errmsg("result is out of range") message to be consistentBruce Momjian
with other places.
2007-01-02Some platforms set errno on pow(), exp() overflow, some do not, so ifBruce Momjian
isinf(), fall through to our own infinity checks.
2007-01-02finite() no longer used; remove finite() platform-specificBruce Momjian
infrastructure.
2007-01-02Add n_live_tuples and n_dead_tuples to pg_stat_all_tables.Bruce Momjian
The purpose is to allow autovacuum-esq conditional vacuuming and clustering using SQL to discover the required stats. No documentation updates required. Catalog version updated. Glen Parker
