make_greater_string() try harder to generate a string that's actually greater
than its input string. Before we just assumed that making a string that was
memcmp-greater was enough, but it is easy to generate examples where this is
not so when the locale is not C. Instead, loop until the relevant comparison
function agrees that the generated string is greater than the input.
Unfortunately this is probably not enough to guarantee that the generated
string is greater than all extensions of the input, so we cannot relax the
restriction to C locale for the LIKE/regex index optimization. But it should
at least improve the odds of getting a useful selectivity estimate in
prefix_selectivity(). Per example from Guillaume Smet.
Backpatch to 8.1, mainly because that's what the complainant is using...

negated-match operators. patternsel had been using the supplied operator as
though it were a positive-match operator, and thus obtaining a wrong result,
which was even more wrong after the caller subtracted it from 1. Seems
cleanest to give patternsel an explicit "negate" argument so that it knows
what's going on. Also install the same factorization scheme for pattern
join selectivity estimators; even though they are just stubs at the
moment, this may keep someone from making the same type of mistake when
they get filled out. Per report from Greg Mullane.
Backpatch to 8.2 --- previous releases do not show the problem because
patternsel() doesn't actually use the operator directly.

Add some more xml_init() calls that might not be necessary, but seem like a
good idea to avoid possible problems like we saw in xmlelement().
Fix unsafe assumption that you can keep using the tupledesc of a relcache
entry you don't have open.
Add missing error checks for SearchSysCache failure.
Get rid of handwritten array traversal in xpath() and O(N^2), broken-for-nulls
array access code in map_sql_value_to_xml_value(), in favor of using
deconstruct_array.
Manually adjust a lot of line breaks in places where the code is otherwise
gonna look pretty awful after pg_indent hacks it up (original author seems to
have liked to lay out code for a 200-column window).

assuming that evaluation of its input expressions won't change the state of
libxml. This requires refactoring xml_init() to not call xmlInitParser(),
since now not all of its callers want that. I also tweaked things to avoid
repeated execution of one-time-only tests inside xml_init(), though this is
mostly for clarity rather than in hopes of saving any noticeable amount of
runtime. Per report from Sheikh Amjad and subsequent discussion.
In passing, fix a couple of inadequately schema-qualified queries.

and ts_stat(), per my recent suggestion. Also add a possibly-not-needed-
but-can't-hurt check for NULL SPI_tuptable, before we try to dereference
same.

if there are zero rows to aggregate over, and the API seems both conceptually
and notationally ugly anyway. We should look for something that improves
on the tsquery-and-text-SELECT version (which is also pretty ugly but at
least it works...), but it seems that will take query infrastructure that
doesn't exist today. (Hm, I wonder if there's anything in or near SQL2003
window functions that would help?) Per discussion.

miscomputation of required palloc size. The crash could only occur if the
input contained lexemes both with and without positions, which is probably not
common in practice. The miscomputation would definitely result in wasted
space. Also fix some inconsistent coding around alignment of strings and
positions in a tsvector value; these errors could also lead to crashes given
mixed with/without position data and a machine that's picky about alignment.
And be more careful about checking for overflow of string offsets.
Patch is only against HEAD --- I have not looked to see if same bugs are
in back-branch contrib/tsearch2 code.

renumbering of encoding IDs done between 8.2 and 8.3 turns out to break 8.2
initdb and psql if they are run with an 8.3beta1 libpq.so. For the moment
we can rearrange the order of enum pg_enc to keep the same number for
everything except PG_JOHAB, which isn't a problem since there are no direct
references to it in the 8.2 programs anyway. (This does force initdb
unfortunately.)
Going forward, we want to fix things so that encoding IDs can be changed
without an ABI break, and this commit includes the changes needed to allow
libpq's encoding IDs to be treated as fully independent of the backend's.
The main issue is that libpq clients should not include pg_wchar.h or
otherwise assume they know the specific values of libpq's encoding IDs,
since they might encounter version skew between pg_wchar.h and the libpq.so
they are using. To fix, have libpq officially export functions needed for
encoding name<=>ID conversion and validity checking; it was doing this
anyway unofficially.
It's still the case that we can't renumber backend encoding IDs until the
next bump in libpq's major version number, since doing so will break the
8.2-era client programs. However the code is now prepared to avoid this
type of problem in future.
Note that initdb is no longer a libpq client: we just pull in the two
source files we need directly. The patch also fixes a few places that
were being sloppy about checking for an unrecognized encoding name.

it affects. The original coding neglected tablespace entirely (causing
the indexes to move to the database's default tablespace) and for an index
belonging to a UNIQUE or PRIMARY KEY constraint, it would actually try to
assign the parent table's reloptions to the index :-(. Per bug #3672 and
subsequent investigation.
8.0 and 8.1 did not have reloptions, but the tablespace bug is present.

buffers that cannot possibly need to be cleaned, and estimates how many
buffers it should try to clean based on moving averages of recent allocation
requests and density of reusable buffers. The patch also adds a couple
more columns to pg_stat_bgwriter to help measure the effectiveness of the
bgwriter.

character encodings that doesn't involve calling lower(). This should

columns, and the new version can be stored on the same heap page, we no longer
generate extra index entries for the new version. Instead, index searches
follow the HOT-chain links to ensure they find the correct tuple version.
In addition, this patch introduces the ability to "prune" dead tuples on a
per-page basis, without having to do a complete VACUUM pass to recover space.
VACUUM is still needed to clean up dead index entries, however.

does not hold for x < 0.

database via builtin functions, as recently discussed on -hackers.
chr() now returns a character in the database encoding. For UTF8 encoded databases
the argument is treated as a Unicode code point. For other multi-byte encodings
the argument must designate a strict ascii character, or an error is raised,
as is also the case if the argument is 0.
ascii() is adjusted so that it remains the inverse of chr().
The two argument form of convert() is gone, and the three argument form now
takes a bytea first argument and returns a bytea. To cover this loss three new
functions are introduced:
. convert_from(bytea, name) returns text - converts the first argument from the
named encoding to the database encoding
. convert_to(text, name) returns bytea - converts the first argument from the
database encoding to the named encoding
. length(bytea, name) returns int - gives the length of the first argument in
characters in the named encoding

* Defined new struct WordEntryPosVector that holds a uint16 length and a
variable size array of WordEntries. This replaces the previous
convention of a variable size uint16 array, with the first element
implying the length. WordEntryPosVector has the same layout in memory,
but is more readable in source code. The POSDATAPTR and POSDATALEN
macros are still used, though it would now be more readable to access
the fields in WordEntryPosVector directly.
* Removed needfree field from DocRepresentation. It was always set to false.
* Miscellaneous other commenting and refactoring

transaction, unless rolled back or overridden by a SET clause for the same
variable attached to a surrounding function call. Per discussion, these
seem the best semantics. Note that this is an INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: in 8.0
through 8.2, SET LOCAL's effects disappeared at subtransaction commit
(leading to behavior that made little sense at the SQL level).
I took advantage of the opportunity to rewrite and simplify the GUC variable
save/restore logic a little bit. The old idea of a "tentative" value is gone;
it was a hangover from before we had a stack. Also, we no longer need a stack
entry for every nesting level, but only for those in which a variable's value
actually changed.

- change the alignment requirement of lexemes in TSVector slightly.
Lexeme strings were always padded to 2-byte aligned length to make sure
that if there's position array (uint16[]) it has the right alignment.
The patch changes that so that the padding is not done when there's no
positions. That makes the storage of tsvectors without positions
slightly more compact.
- added some #include "miscadmin.h" lines I missed in the earlier when I
added calls to check_stack_depth().
- Reimplement the send/recv functions, and added a comment
above them describing the on-wire format. The CRC is now recalculated in
tsquery as well per previous discussion.
|

- add code to check that the query tree is well-formed. It was indeed
possible to send malformed queries in binary mode, which produced all
kinds of strange results.
- make the left-field a uint32. There's no reason to
arbitrarily limit it to 16-bits, and it won't increase the disk/memory
footprint either now that QueryOperator and QueryOperand are separate
structs.
- add check_stack_depth() call to all recursive functions I found.
Some of them might have a natural limit so that you can't force
arbitrarily deep recursions, but check_stack_depth() is cheap enough
that seems best to just stick it into anything that might be a problem.

small editorization by me
- Brake the QueryItem struct into QueryOperator and QueryOperand.
Type was really the only common field between them. QueryItem still
exists, and is used in the TSQuery struct as before, but it's now a
union of the two. Many other changes fell from that, like separation
of pushval_asis function into pushValue, pushOperator and pushStop.
- Moved some structs that were for internal use only from header files
to the right .c-files.
- Moved tsvector parser to a new tsvector_parser.c file. Parser code was
about half of the size of tsvector.c, it's also used from tsquery.c, and
it has some data structures of its own, so it seems better to separate
it. Cleaned up the API so that TSVectorParserState is not accessed from
outside tsvector_parser.c.
- Separated enumerations (#defines, really) used for QueryItem.type
field and as return codes from gettoken_query. It was just accidental
code sharing.
- Removed ParseQueryNode struct used internally by makepol and friends.
push*-functions now construct QueryItems directly.
- Changed int4 variables to just ints for variables like "i" or "array
size", where the storage-size was not significant.

rows will normally never obtain an XID at all. We already did things this way
for subtransactions, but this patch extends the concept to top-level
transactions. In applications where there are lots of short read-only
transactions, this should improve performance noticeably; not so much from
removal of the actual XID-assignments, as from reduction of overhead that's
driven by the rate of XID consumption. We add a concept of a "virtual
transaction ID" so that active transactions can be uniquely identified even
if they don't have a regular XID. This is a much lighter-weight concept:
uniqueness of VXIDs is only guaranteed over the short term, and no on-disk
record is made about them.

the number of rows likely to be produced by a query such as
SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 USING (key) WHERE t2.key IS NULL;
What this is doing is selecting for t1 rows with no match in t2, and thus
it may produce a significant number of rows even if the t2.key table column
contains no nulls at all. 8.2 thinks the table column's null fraction is
relevant and thus may estimate no rows out, which results in terrible plans
if there are more joins above this one. A proper fix for this will involve
passing much more information about the context of a clause to the selectivity
estimator functions than we ever have. There's no time left to write such a
patch for 8.3, and it wouldn't be back-patchable into 8.2 anyway. Instead,
put in an ad-hoc test to defeat the normal table-stats-based estimation when
an IS NULL test is evaluated at an outer join, and just use a constant
estimate instead --- I went with 0.5 for lack of a better idea. This won't
catch every case but it will catch the typical ways of writing such queries,
and it seems unlikely to make things worse for other queries.

checks for individual-table-size functions, since anyone in the database could
get approximate values from pg_class.relpages anyway. Allow database-size to
users with CONNECT privilege for the target database (note that this is
granted by default). Allow tablespace-size if the user has CREATE privilege
on the tablespace (which is *not* granted by default), or if the tablespace is
the default tablespace for the current database (since we treat that as
implicitly allowing use of the tablespace).

days that was obsolete the moment we had IN (SELECT ...) capability.
It's arguably a security hole since it applied no permissions check to
the table it searched, and since it was never documented anywhere,
removing it seems more appropriate than fixing it.

and pg_tablespace_size to superusers. Perhaps we could weaken the first
case to just require SELECT privilege, but that doesn't work for the
other cases, so use ownership as the common concept.

While it's not clear that TID linkage info is of any great use to a
nefarious user, it's certainly unexpected that these functions wouldn't
insist on read privileges.
