HeapTupleSatisfiesItself without doing LockBuffer first. This code
is a bit fragile, but AFAICS it's not actually broken.

the subject tuple is already deleted: we need not open the pk_rel

by abandoning the idea that it should say SERIAL in the dump. Instead,
dump serial sequences and column defaults just like regular ones.
Add a new backend command ALTER SEQUENCE OWNED BY to let pg_dump recreate
the sequence-to-column dependency that was formerly created "behind the
scenes" by SERIAL. This restores SERIAL to being truly "just a macro"
consisting of component operations that can be stated explicitly in SQL.
Furthermore, the new command allows sequence ownership to be reassigned,
so that old mistakes can be cleaned up.
Also, downgrade the OWNED-BY dependency from INTERNAL to AUTO, since there
is no longer any very compelling argument why the sequence couldn't be
dropped while keeping the column. (This forces initdb, to be sure the
right kinds of dependencies are in there.)
Along the way, add checks to prevent ALTER OWNER or SET SCHEMA on an
owned sequence; you can now only do this indirectly by changing the
owning table's owner or schema. This is an oversight in previous
releases, but probably not worth back-patching.

that ps_status provides by appending 'waiting' to the PS display. This
completes the project of making it feasible to turn off process title
updates and instead rely on pg_stat_activity. Per my suggestion a few
weeks ago.

plpgsql support to come later. Along the way, convert execMain's
SELECT INTO support into a DestReceiver, in order to eliminate some ugly
special cases.

that's shorter-lived than the expression state being evaluated in it really
doesn't work :-( --- we end up with fn_extra caches getting deleted while
still in use. Rather than abandon the notion of caching expression state
across domain_in calls altogether, I chose to make domain_in a bit cozier
with ExprContext. All we really need for evaluating variable-free
expressions is an ExprContext, not an EState, so I invented the notion of a
"standalone" ExprContext. domain_in can prevent resource leakages by doing
a ReScanExprContext on this rather than having to free it entirely; so we
can make the ExprContext have the same lifespan (and particularly the same
per_query memory context) as the expression state structs.

by the spec. (e.g. similar to a FROM clause subselect). initdb required.

the float8 versions of the aggregates, which is all that the standard requires.
Sergey's original patch also provided versions using numeric arithmetic,
but given the size and slowness of the code, I doubt we ought to include
those in core.
|

the opportunity to treat COUNT(*) as a zero-argument aggregate instead
of the old hack that equated it to COUNT(1); this is materially cleaner
(no more weird ANYOID cases) and ought to be at least a tiny bit faster.
Original patch by Sergey Koposov; review, documentation, simple regression
tests, pg_dump and psql support by moi.

configuration files that can be altered by a DBA. The australian_timezones
GUC setting disappears, replaced by a timezone_abbreviations setting (set this
to 'Australia' to get the effect of australian_timezones). The list of zone
names defined by default has undergone a bit of cleanup, too. Documentation
still needs some work --- in particular, should we fix Table B-4, or just get
rid of it? Joachim Wieland, with some editorializing by moi.

thinking that indexes of different sizes are equally attractive. Per
gripe from Jim Nasby. (I remain unconvinced that there's such a problem
in existing releases, but CVS HEAD definitely has got a problem because
of its new count-only-leaf-pages approach to indexscan costing.)

hash tables, instead of the previous kluge involving multiple hash tables.
This partially undoes my patch of last December.

opclass. This is not so much because anyone's likely to create an index
on TID, as that sorting TIDs can be useful. Also added max and min
aggregates while at it, so that one can investigate the clusteredness of
a table with queries like SELECT min(ctid), max(ctid) FROM tab WHERE ...

have no other gods before c.h'. Also remove some demonstrably redundant
#include lines, mostly of <errno.h> which was added to c.h years ago.

Strip unused include files out unused include files, and add needed
includes to C files.
The next step is to remove unused include files in C files.

discussion (including making def_arg allow reserved words), add missed
opt_definition for UNIQUE case. Put the reloptions support code in a less
random place (I chose to make a new file access/common/reloptions.c).
Eliminate header inclusion creep. Make the index options functions safely
user-callable (seems like client apps might like to be able to test validity
of options before trying to make an index). Reduce overhead for normal case
with no options by allowing rd_options to be NULL. Fix some unmaintainably
klugy code, including getting rid of Natts_pg_class_fixed at long last.
Some stylistic cleanup too, and pay attention to keeping comments in sync
with code.
Documentation still needs work, though I did fix the omissions in
catalogs.sgml and indexam.sgml.

ScalarArrayOpExpr index quals: we were estimating the right total
number of rows returned, but treating the index-access part of the
cost as if a single scan were fetching that many consecutive index
tuples. Actually we should treat it as a multiple indexscan, and
if there are enough of 'em the Mackert-Lohman discount should kick in.

changing semantics too much. statement_timestamp is now set immediately
upon receipt of a client command message, and the various places that used
to do their own gettimeofday() calls to mark command startup are referenced
to that instead. I have also made stats_command_string use that same
value for pg_stat_activity.query_start for both the command itself and
its eventual replacement by <IDLE> or <idle in transaction>. There was
some debate about that, but no argument that seemed convincing enough to
justify an extra gettimeofday() call.

libpq/md5.h, so that there's a clear separation between backend-only
definitions and shared frontend/backend definitions. (Turns out this
is reversing a bad decision from some years ago...) Fix up references
to crypt.h as needed. I looked into moving the code into src/port, but
the headers in src/include/libpq are sufficiently intertwined that it
seems more work than it's worth to do that.

current commands; instead, store current-status information in shared
memory. This substantially reduces the overhead of stats_command_string
and also ensures that pg_stat_activity is fully up to date at all times.
Per my recent proposal.

by creating a reference-count mechanism, similar to what we did a long time
ago for catcache entries. The back branches have an ugly solution involving
lots of extra copies, but this way is more efficient. Reference counting is
only applied to tupdescs that are actually in caches --- there seems no need
to use it for tupdescs that are generated in the executor, since they'll go
away during plan shutdown by virtue of being in the per-query memory context.

that the Mackert-Lohmann formula applies across all the repetitions of the
nestloop, not just each scan independently. We use the M-L formula to
estimate the number of pages fetched from the index as well as from the table;
that isn't what it was designed for, but it seems reasonably applicable
anyway. This makes large numbers of repetitions look much cheaper than
before, which accords with many reports we've received of overestimation
of the cost of a nestloop. Also, change the index access cost model to
charge random_page_cost per index leaf page touched, while explicitly
not counting anything for access to metapage or upper tree pages. This
may all need tweaking after we get some field experience, but in simple
tests it seems to be giving saner results than before. The main thing
is to get the infrastructure in place to let cost_index() and amcostestimate
functions take repeated scans into account at all. Per my recent proposal.
Note: this patch changes pg_proc.h, but I did not force initdb because
the changes are basically cosmetic --- the system does not look into
pg_proc to decide how to call an index amcostestimate function, and
there's no way to call such a function from SQL at all.

assumed that a sequential page fetch has cost 1.0. This patch doesn't
in itself change the system's behavior at all, but it opens the door to
people adopting other units of measurement for EXPLAIN costs. Also, if
we ever decide it's worth inventing per-tablespace access cost settings,
this change provides a workable intellectual framework for that.

for LC_MESSAGES; instead, just press forward, leaving the effective setting
at 'C'. There is not any very good reason to complain when we are going
to replace the value soon with whatever postgresql.conf says. This change
should solve the occasionally-reported problem of initdb failing with
'failed to initialize lc_messages'; the current theory is that that is
a reflection of either wrong LANG/LC_MESSAGES or completely broken locale
support.

and standard_conforming_strings; likewise for the other client programs
that need it. As per previous discussion, a pg_dump dump now conforms
to the standard_conforming_strings setting of the source database.
We don't use E'' syntax in the dump, thereby improving portability of
the SQL. I added a SET escape_strings_warning = off command to keep
the dumps from getting a lot of back-chatter from that.
|
|
'off'. This allows pg_dump output with standard_conforming_strings =
'on' to generate proper strings that can be loaded into other databases
without the backslash doubling we typically do. I have added the
dumping of the standard_conforming_strings value to pg_dump.
I also added standard backslash handling for plpgsql.

characters in all cases. Formerly we mostly just threw warnings for invalid
input, and failed to detect it at all if no encoding conversion was required.
The tighter check is needed to defend against SQL-injection attacks as per
CVE-2006-2313 (further details will be published after release). Embedded
zero (null) bytes will be rejected as well. The checks are applied during
input to the backend (receipt from client or COPY IN), so it no longer seems
necessary to check in textin() and related routines; any string arriving at
those functions will already have been validated. Conversion failure
reporting (for characters with no equivalent in the destination encoding)
has been cleaned up and made consistent while at it.
Also, fix a few longstanding errors in little-used encoding conversion
routines: win1251_to_iso, win866_to_iso, euc_tw_to_big5, euc_tw_to_mic,
mic_to_euc_tw were all broken to varying extents.

the union of its child relations as well. This might have been a good idea
when it was originally coded, but it's a fatally bad idea when inheritance is
being used for partitioning. It's better to have no stats at all than
completely misleading stats. Per report from Mark Liberman.
The bug arguably exists all the way back, but I've only patched HEAD and 8.1
because we weren't particularly trying to support partitioning before 8.1.
Eventually we ought to look at deriving union statistics instead of just
punting, but for now the drop kick looks good.

input datatypes given, and use this before trying OpernameGetCandidates.
This is faster than the old method when there's an exact match, and it
does not seem materially slower when there's not. And it definitely
makes some of the callers cleaner, because they didn't really want to
know about a list of candidates anyway. Per discussion with Atsushi Ogawa.

CONNECTION, fix a number of places that were missed (eg pg_dump support),
avoid executing an extra search of pg_database during startup.

support both FOR UPDATE and FOR SHARE in one command, as well as both
NOWAIT and normal WAIT behavior. The more general code is actually
simpler and cleaner.
