as a variable or column name, and it's not reserved in recent versions of
the SQL spec either. This became particularly annoying in 9.0, before that
PL/pgSQL replaced variable names in queries with parameter markers, so
it was possible to use OFF and many other backend parser keywords as
variable names. Because of that, backpatch to 9.0.

look through join alias Vars to avoid breaking join queries, and
move the test to someplace where it will catch more possible ways
of calling a function. We still ought to throw away the whole thing
in favor of a data-type-based solution, but that's not feasible in
the back branches.
This needs to be back-patched further than 9.0, but I don't have time
to do so today. Committing now so that the fix gets into 9.0beta4.

to transformAggregateCall, instead of abusing fields in Aggref to carry them
temporarily. No change in functionality but hopefully the code is a bit
clearer now. Per gripe from Gokulakannan Somasundaram.

This patch allows the frame to start from CURRENT ROW (in either RANGE or
ROWS mode), and it also adds support for ROWS n PRECEDING and ROWS n FOLLOWING
start and end points. (RANGE value PRECEDING/FOLLOWING isn't there yet ---
the grammar works, but that's all.)

VACUUM FULL INPLACE), along with a boatload of subsidiary code and complexity.
Per discussion, the use case for this method of vacuuming is no longer large
enough to justify maintaining it; not to mention that we don't wish to invest
the work that would be needed to make it play nicely with Hot Standby.
Aside from the code directly related to old-style VACUUM FULL, this commit
removes support for certain WAL record types that could only be generated
within VACUUM FULL, redirect-pointer removal in heap_page_prune, and
nontransactional generation of cache invalidation sinval messages (the last
being the sticking point for Hot Standby).
We still have to retain all code that copes with finding HEAP_MOVED_OFF and
HEAP_MOVED_IN flag bits on existing tuples. This can't be removed as long
as we want to support in-place update from pre-9.0 databases.

VACUUM FULL was renamed to VACUUM FULL INPLACE. Also added a new
option -i, --inplace for vacuumdb to perform FULL INPLACE vacuuming.
Since the new VACUUM FULL uses CLUSTER infrastructure, we cannot
use it for system tables. VACUUM FULL for system tables always
fall back into VACUUM FULL INPLACE silently.

choose an index name the same as it would do for an unnamed index constraint.
(My recent changes to the index naming logic have helped to ensure that this
will be a reasonable choice.) Per a suggestion from Peter.
A necessary side-effect is to promote CONCURRENTLY to type_func_name_keyword
status, ie, it can't be a table/column/index name anymore unless quoted.
This is not all bad, since we have heard more than once of people typing
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY ON foo (...) and getting a normal index build of
an index named "concurrently", which was not what they wanted. Now this
syntax will result in a concurrent build of an index with system-chosen
name; which they can rename afterwards if they want something else.

Index expression columns are now named after the FigureColname result for
their expressions, rather than always being "pg_expression_N". Digits are
appended to this name if needed to make the column name unique within the
index. (That happens for regular columns too, thus fixing the old problem
that CREATE INDEX fooi ON foo (f1, f1) fails. Before exclusion indexes
there was no real reason to do such a thing, but now maybe there is.)
Default names for indexes and associated constraints now include the column
names of all their columns, not only the first one as in previous practice.
(Of course, this will be truncated as needed to fit in NAMEDATALEN. Also,
pkey indexes retain the historical behavior of not naming specific columns
at all.)
An example of the results:
regression=# create table foo (f1 int, f2 text,
regression(# exclude (f1 with =, lower(f2) with =));
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / EXCLUDE will create implicit index "foo_f1_lower_exclusion" for table "foo"
CREATE TABLE
regression=# \d foo_f1_lower_exclusion
Index "public.foo_f1_lower_exclusion"
Column | Type | Definition
--------+---------+------------
f1 | integer | f1
lower | text | lower(f2)
btree, for table "public.foo"

non-kluge method for controlling the order in which values are fed to an
aggregate function. At the same time eliminate the old implementation
restriction that DISTINCT was only supported for single-argument aggregates.
Possibly release-notable behavioral change: formerly, agg(DISTINCT x)
dropped null values of x unconditionally. Now, it does so only if the
agg transition function is strict; otherwise nulls are treated as DISTINCT
normally would, ie, you get one copy.

of different parsers having different YYSTYPE unions that they want to use
with it. I defined a new union core_YYSTYPE that is just the (very short)
list of semantic values returned by the core scanner. I had originally
worried that this would require an extra interface layer, but actually we can
have parser.c's base_yylex (formerly filtered_base_yylex) take care of that at
no extra cost. Names associated with the core scanner are now "core_yy_foo",
with "base_yy_foo" being used in the core Bison parser and the parser.c
interface layer.
This solves the last serious stumbling block to eliminating plpgsql's separate
lexer. One restriction that will still be present is that plpgsql and the
core will have to agree on the token numbers assigned to tokens that can be
returned by the core lexer. Since Bison doesn't seem willing to accept
external assignments of those numbers, we'll have to live with decreeing that
core and plpgsql grammars declare these tokens first and in the same order.

it works just as well to have them be ordinary identifiers, and this gets rid
of a number of ugly special cases. Plus we aren't interfering with non-rule
usage of these names.
catversion bump because the names change internally in stored rules.

recent proposal. As proof of concept, remove knowledge of Params from the
core parser, arranging for them to be handled entirely by parser hook
functions. It turns out we need an additional hook for that --- I had
forgotten about the code that handles inferring a parameter's type from
context.
This is a preliminary step towards letting plpgsql handle its variables
through parser hooks. Additional work remains to be done to expose the
facility through SPI, but I think this is all the changes needed in the core
parser.

underneath the Limit node, not atop it. This fixes the old problem that such
a query might unexpectedly return fewer rows than the LIMIT says, due to
LockRows discarding updated rows.
There is a related problem that LockRows might destroy the sort ordering
produced by earlier steps; but fixing that by pushing LockRows below Sort
would create serious performance problems that are unjustified in many
real-world applications, as well as potential deadlock problems from locking
many more rows than expected. Instead, keep the present semantics of applying
FOR UPDATE after ORDER BY within a single query level; but allow the user to
specify the other way by writing FOR UPDATE in a sub-select. To make that
work, track whether FOR UPDATE appeared explicitly in sub-selects or got
pushed down from the parent, and don't flatten a sub-select that contained an
explicit FOR UPDATE.
|
|
for example in
WITH w AS (SELECT * FROM foo) SELECT * FROM w, bar ... FOR UPDATE
the FOR UPDATE will now affect bar but not foo. This is more useful and
consistent than the original 8.4 behavior, which tried to propagate FOR UPDATE
into the WITH query but always failed due to assorted implementation
restrictions. Even though we are in process of removing those restrictions,
it seems correct on philosophical grounds to not let the outer query's
FOR UPDATE affect the WITH query.
In passing, fix isLockedRel which frequently got things wrong in
nested-subquery cases: "FOR UPDATE OF foo" applies to an alias foo in the
current query level, not subqueries. This has been broken for a long time,
but it doesn't seem worth back-patching further than 8.4 because the actual
consequences are minimal. At worst the parser would sometimes get
RowShareLock on a relation when it should be AccessShareLock or vice versa.
That would only make a difference if someone were using ExclusiveLock
concurrently, which no standard operation does, and anyway FOR UPDATE
doesn't result in visible changes so it's not clear that the someone would
notice any problem. Between that and the fact that FOR UPDATE barely works
with subqueries at all in existing releases, I'm not excited about worrying
about it.

a lot of strange behaviors that occurred in join cases. We now identify the
"current" row for every joined relation in UPDATE, DELETE, and SELECT FOR
UPDATE/SHARE queries. If an EvalPlanQual recheck is necessary, we jam the
appropriate row into each scan node in the rechecking plan, forcing it to emit
only that one row. The former behavior could rescan the whole of each joined
relation for each recheck, which was terrible for performance, and what's much
worse could result in duplicated output tuples.
Also, the original implementation of EvalPlanQual could not re-use the recheck
execution tree --- it had to go through a full executor init and shutdown for
every row to be tested. To avoid this overhead, I've associated a special
runtime Param with each LockRows or ModifyTable plan node, and arranged to
make every scan node below such a node depend on that Param. Thus, by
signaling a change in that Param, the EPQ machinery can just rescan the
already-built test plan.
This patch also adds a prohibition on set-returning functions in the
targetlist of SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE. This is needed to avoid the
duplicate-output-tuple problem. It seems fairly reasonable since the
other restrictions on SELECT FOR UPDATE are meant to ensure that there
is a unique correspondence between source tuples and result tuples,
which an output SRF destroys as much as anything else does.

Per recent discussion, add_missing_from has been deprecated for long enough to
consider removing, and it's getting in the way of planned parser refactoring.
The system now always behaves as though add_missing_from were OFF.

to create a function for it.
Procedural languages now have an additional entry point, namely a function
to execute an inline code block. This seemed a better design than trying
to hide the transient-ness of the code from the PL. As of this patch, only
plpgsql has an inline handler, but probably people will soon write handlers
for the other standard PLs.
In passing, remove the long-dead LANCOMPILER option of CREATE LANGUAGE.

code was already okay with this, but the hack that obtained the output
column types of a recursive union in advance of doing real parse analysis
of the recursive union forgot to handle the case where there was an inner
WITH clause available to the non-recursive term. Best fix seems to be to
refactor so that we don't need the "throwaway" parse analysis step at all.
Instead, teach the transformSetOperationStmt code to set up the CTE's output
column information after it's processed the non-recursive term normally.
Per report from David Fetter.

so that their elements are always taken as simple expressions over the
query's input columns. It originally seemed like a good idea to make them
act exactly like GROUP BY and ORDER BY, right down to the SQL92-era behavior
of accepting output column names or numbers. However, that was not such a
great idea, for two reasons:
1. It permits circular references, as exhibited in bug #5018: the output
column could be the one containing the window function itself. (We actually
had a regression test case illustrating this, but nobody thought twice about
how confusing that would be.)
2. It doesn't seem like a good idea for, eg, "lead(foo) OVER (ORDER BY foo)"
to potentially use two completely different meanings for "foo".
Accordingly, narrow down the behavior of window clauses to use only the
SQL99-compliant interpretation that the expressions are simple expressions.

This alters various incidental uses of C++ key words to use other similar
identifiers, so that a C++ compiler won't choke outright. You still
(probably) need extern "C" { }; around the inclusion of backend headers.
based on a patch by Kurt Harriman <harriman@acm.org>
Also add a script cpluspluscheck to check for C++ compatibility in the
future. As of right now, this passes without error for me.

Changes:
Pass in the keyword lookup array instead of having it be hardwired.
(This incidentally allows elimination of some duplicate coding in ecpg.)
Re-order the token declarations in gram.y so that non-keyword tokens have
numbers that won't change when keywords are added or removed.
Add ".." and ":=" to the set of tokens recognized by scan.l. (Since these
combinations are nowhere legal in core SQL, this does not change anything
except the precise wording of the error you get when you write this.)

of features added to flex and bison since this code was originally written.
This change doesn't in itself offer any new capability, but it's needed
infrastructure for planned improvements in plpgsql.
Another feature now available in flex is the ability to make it use palloc
instead of malloc, so do that to avoid possible memory leaks. (We should
at some point change the other lexers likewise, but this commit doesn't
touch them.)

distinction between the external API (parser.h) and declarations that only
need to be visible within the raw parser code (gramparse.h, which now is only
included by parser.c, gram.y, scan.l, and keywords.c). This is in preparation
for the upcoming change to a reentrant lexer, which will require referencing
YYSTYPE in the declarations of base_yylex and filtered_base_yylex, hence
gram.h will have to be included by gramparse.h. We don't want any more files
than absolutely necessary to depend on gram.h, so some cleanup is called for.

find_inheritance_children() and find_all_inheritors(). I got annoyed that
these are buried inside the planner but mostly used elsewhere. So, create
a new file catalog/pg_inherits.c and put them there, along with a couple
of other functions that search pg_inherits.
The code that modifies pg_inherits is (still) in tablecmds.c --- it's
kind of entangled with unrelated code that modifies pg_depend and other
stuff, so pulling it out seemed like a bigger change than I wanted to make
right now. But this file provides a natural home for it if anyone ever
gets around to that.
This commit just moves code around; it doesn't change anything, except
I succumbed to the temptation to make a couple of trivial optimizations
in typeInheritsFrom().

fact that this is breaking the MSVC build, it's probably not really a good
idea to expand the dependencies of gram.h any further than the core parser;
for instance the value of SCONST might depend on which bison version you'd
built with. Better to expose an additional call point in parser.c, so
move what I had put into pl_funcs.c into parser.c. Also PGDLLIMPORT'ify
the reference to standard_conforming_strings, per buildfarm results.

kwlist.h, to avoid having to link the backend object file into other programs
like pg_dump. We can now simply symlink a single source file from the backend

when they are invoked by the parser. We had been setting up a snapshot at
plan time but really it needs to be done earlier, before parse analysis.
Per report from Dmitry Koterov.
Also fix two related problems discovered while poking at this one:
exec_bind_message called datatype input functions without establishing a
snapshot, and SET CONSTRAINTS IMMEDIATE could call trigger functions without
establishing a snapshot.
Backpatch to 8.2. The underlying problem goes much further back, but it is
masked in 8.1 and before because we didn't attempt to invoke domain check
constraints within datatype input. It would only be exposed if a C-language
datatype input function used the snapshot; which evidently none do, or we'd
have heard complaints sooner. Since this code has changed a lot over time,
a back-patch is hardly risk-free, and so I'm disinclined to patch further
than absolutely necessary.

of referencing a WITH item that's not yet in scope according to the SQL

well as regular tables. Per discussion, this seems necessary to meet the
principle of least astonishment.
In passing, simplify the error messages in warnAutoRange(). Now that we
have parser error position info for these errors, it doesn't seem very
useful to word the error message differently depending on whether we are
inside a sub-select or not.

There are some unimplemented aspects: recursive queries must use UNION ALL
(should allow UNION too), and we don't have SEARCH or CYCLE clauses.
These might or might not get done for 8.4, but even without them it's a
pretty useful feature.
There are also a couple of small loose ends and definitional quibbles,
which I'll send a memo about to pgsql-hackers shortly. But let's land
the patch now so we can get on with other development.

There are still some weak spots around JOIN USING and relation alias lists,
but most errors reported within backend/parser/ now have locations.
|
|
most node types used in expression trees (both before and after parse
analysis). This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations
where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available
beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount
of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually
include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the
work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than
before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as
CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types.
Per my proposal of a few days ago.
