2007-08-14- Finished major rewrite to use new protocol versionMichael Meskes
- Really prepare statements - Added more regression tests - Added auto-prepare mode - Use '$n' for positional variables, '?' is still possible via ecpg option - Cleaned up the sources a little bit
2007-08-13TEMPORARILY make synchronous_commit default to OFF, so that we can get moreTom Lane
thorough testing of async-commit mode from the buildfarm. This patch MUST get reverted before 8.3 release!
2007-08-13Fix two bugs induced in VACUUM FULL by async-commit patch.Tom Lane
First, we cannot assume that XLogAsyncCommitFlush guarantees hint bits will be settable, because clog.c's inexact LSN bookkeeping results in windows where a previously flushed transaction is considered unhintable because it shares an LSN slot with a later unflushed transaction. But repair_frag requires XMIN_COMMITTED to be correct so that it can distinguish tuples moved by the current vacuum. Since not being able to set the bit is an uncommon corner case, the most practical way of dealing with it seems to be to abandon shrinking (ie, don't invoke repair_frag) when we find a non-dead tuple whose XMIN_COMMITTED bit couldn't be set. Second, it is possible for the same reason that a RECENTLY_DEAD tuple does not get its XMAX_COMMITTED bit set during scan_heap. But by the time repair_frag examines the tuple it might be possible to set the bit. We therefore must take buffer content lock when calling HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum a second time, else we can get an Assert failure in SetBufferCommitInfoNeedsSave. This latter bug is latent in existing releases, but I think it cannot actually occur without async commit, since the first HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum call should always have set the bit. So I'm not going to back-patch it. In passing, reduce the existing "cannot shrink relation" messages from NOTICE to LOG level. The new message must be no higher than LOG if we don't want unpredictable regression test failures, and consistency seems like a good idea. Also arrange that only one such message is reported per VACUUM FULL; in typical scenarios you could get spammed with many such messages, which seems a bit useless.
2007-08-12Remove an "optimization" I installed in 2001, to make repalloc() attempt toTom Lane
enlarge the memory chunk in-place when it was feasible to do so. This turns out to not work well at all for scenarios involving repeated cycles of palloc/repalloc/pfree: the eventually freed chunks go into the wrong freelist for the next initial palloc request, and so we consume memory indefinitely. While that could be defended against, the number of cases where the optimization can still be applied drops significantly, and adjusting the initial sizes of StringInfo buffers makes it drop to almost nothing. Seems better to just remove the extra complexity. Per recent discussion and testing.
2007-08-12Increase the initial size of StringInfo buffers to 1024 bytes (from 256);Tom Lane
likewise increase the initial size of the scanner's literal buffer to 1024 (from 128). Instrumentation of the regression tests suggests that this saves a useful amount of repalloc() traffic --- the number of calls occurring during one set of tests drops from about 6900 to about 3900. The old sizes were chosen in the late 90's with an eye to machines much smaller than are common today.
2007-08-11Avoid memory leakage across successive calls of regexp_matches() orTom Lane
regexp_split_to_table() within a single query. This is only a partial solution, as it turns out that with enough matches per string these functions can also tickle a repalloc() misbehavior. But fixing that is a topic for a separate patch.
2007-08-11Code review for regexp_matches/regexp_split patch. Refactor to avoid assumingTom Lane
that cached compiled patterns will still be there when the function is next called. Clean up looping logic, thereby fixing bug identified by Pavel Stehule. Share setup code between the two functions, add some comments, and avoid risky mixing of int and size_t variables. Clean up the documentation a tad, and accept all the flag characters mentioned in table 9-19 rather than just a subset.
2007-08-10Fix uninitialized-memory bug in plpython proargnames patch. Per bug #3523Tom Lane
2007-08-10Fix unintended change of output format for createlang/droplang -l. MissedTom Lane
these uses of printQuery() in FETCH_COUNT patch a year ago :-(. Per report from Tomoaki Sato.
2007-08-09Revise postmaster startup/shutdown logic to eliminate the problem that aTom Lane
constant flow of new connection requests could prevent the postmaster from completing a shutdown or crash restart. This is done by labeling child processes that are "dead ends", that is, we know that they were launched only to tell a client that it can't connect. These processes are managed separately so that they don't confuse us into thinking that we can't advance to the next stage of a shutdown or restart sequence, until the very end where we must wait for them to drain out so we can delete the shmem segment. Per discussion of a misbehavior reported by Keaton Adams. Since this code was baroque already, and my first attempt at fixing the problem made it entirely impenetrable, I took the opportunity to rewrite it in a state-machine style. That eliminates some duplicated code sections and hopefully makes everything a bit clearer.
2007-08-08Fix a gradual memory leak in ExecReScanAgg(). Because the aggregationNeil Conway
hash table is allocated in a child context of the agg node's memory context, MemoryContextReset() will reset but *not* delete the child context. Since ExecReScanAgg() proceeds to build a new hash table from scratch (in a new sub-context), this results in leaking the header for the previous memory context. Therefore, use MemoryContextResetAndDeleteChildren() instead. Credit: My colleague Sailesh Krishnamurthy at Truviso for isolating the cause of the leak.
2007-08-08Fix thinko in multi-autovac-workers code: validity checks made byTom Lane
GUC assign hooks are supposed to be made whether doit is true or not.
2007-08-07Adjust the output of MemoryContextStats() so that the stats for aNeil Conway
child memory contexts is indented two spaces to the right of its parent context. This should make it easier to deduce the memory context hierarchy from the output of MemoryContextStats().
2007-08-06Fix pg_restore to guard against unexpected EOF while reading an archive file.Tom Lane
Per report and partial patch from Chad Wagner.
2007-08-05Apparently icc doesn't always define __ICC, and it's more correct toTom Lane
check for __INTEL_COMPILER. Per report from Dirk Tilger. Not back-patched since I don't fully trust it yet ...
2007-08-04Fix up bad layout of some comments (probably pg_indent's fault), andTom Lane
improve grammar a tad. Per Greg Stark.
2007-08-04Tweak for initdb: if more command-line arguments were specified thanNeil Conway
expected, exit with an error, rather than complaining about the error on stderr but continuing onward.
2007-08-04Fix crash caused by log_timezone patch if we attempt to emit any elog messagesTom Lane
between the setting of log_line_prefix and the setting of log_timezone. We can't realistically set log_timezone any earlier than we do now, so the best behavior seems to be to use GMT zone if any timestamps are to be logged during early startup. Create a dummy zone variable with a minimal definition of GMT (in particular it will never know about leap seconds), so that we can set it up without reference to any external files.
2007-08-04Fix a problem in my recent patch to initialize cancel_key for autovac workersTom Lane
as well as regular backends: if no regular backend launches before the autovac launcher tries to start an autovac worker, the postmaster would get an Assert fault due to calling PostmasterRandom before random_seed was initialized. Cleanest solution seems to be to take the initialization of random_seed out of ServerLoop and let PostmasterRandom do it for itself.
2007-08-04Switch over to using the src/timezone functions for formatting timestampsTom Lane
displayed in the postmaster log. This avoids Windows-specific problems with localized time zone names that are in the wrong encoding, and generally seems like a good idea to forestall other potential platform-dependent issues. To preserve the existing behavior that all backends will log in the same time zone, create a new GUC variable log_timezone that can only be changed on a system-wide basis, and reference log-related calculations to that zone instead of the TimeZone variable. This fixes the issue reported by Hiroshi Saito that timestamps printed by xlog.c startup could be improperly localized on Windows. We still need a simpler patch for that problem in the back branches, however.
2007-08-03Fix some sloppiness in the recent multiple-autovacuum-worker patch. It wasTom Lane
not bothering to initialize is_autovacuum for regular backends, meaning there was a significant chance of the postmaster prematurely sending them SIGTERM during database shutdown. Also, leaving the cancel key unset for an autovac worker meant that any client could send it SIGINT, which doesn't sound especially good either.
2007-08-03Update supported standalone VC++ version to 7.1+ only, and fixMagnus Hagander
some bad data leftover in win32.mak. Per request from Hiroshi Saito.
2007-08-02Move session_start out of MyProcPort stucture and make it a global called ↵Andrew Dunstan
MyStartTime, so that we will be able to create a cookie for all processes for CSVlogs. It is set wherever MyProcPid is set. Take the opportunity to remove the now unnecessary session-only restriction on the %s and %c escapes in log_line_prefix.
2007-08-02Make sure syslogPipe runs in binary mode on Windows to avoid corrupting the ↵Andrew Dunstan
pipe chunking protocol. Backport to 8.0
2007-08-02Fix a memory leak in tuplestore_end(). Unlikely to be significant duringNeil Conway
normal operation, but tuplestore_end() ought to do what it claims to do.
2007-08-01Support an optional asynchronous commit mode, in which we don't flush WALTom Lane
before reporting a transaction committed. Data consistency is still guaranteed (unlike setting fsync = off), but a crash may lose the effects of the last few transactions. Patch by Simon, some editorialization by Tom.
2007-08-01Fix strange quoting.Bruce Momjian
2007-08-01Fix script quoting problem.Bruce Momjian
2007-07-31Fix a bug in the original implementation of redundant-join-clause removal:Tom Lane
clauses in which one side or the other references both sides of the join cannot be removed as redundant, because that expression won't have been constrained below the join. Per report from Sergey Burladyan. CVS HEAD does not contain this bug due to EquivalenceClass rewrite, but it seems wise to include the regression test for it anyway.
2007-07-31If we're gonna use ExecRelationIsTargetRelation here, might as wellTom Lane
simplify a bit further.
2007-07-31Fix security definer functions with polymorphic arguments. This case hasTom Lane
never worked because fmgr_security_definer() neglected to pass the fn_expr information through. Per report from Viatcheslav Kalinin.
2007-07-27Slight refactor for ExecOpenScanRelation(): we can useNeil Conway
ExecRelationIsTargetRelation() to check if the relation is a target rel, rather than scanning through the result relation array ourselves.
2007-07-26Remove FileUnlink(), which wasn't being used anywhere and interacted poorlyTom Lane
with the recent patch to log temp file sizes at removal time. Doesn't seem worth fixing since it's unused. In passing, make a few elog messages conform to the message style guide.
2007-07-25Arrange to put TOAST tables belonging to temporary tables into special schemasTom Lane
named pg_toast_temp_nnn, alongside the pg_temp_nnn schemas used for the temp tables themselves. This allows low-level code such as the relcache to recognize that these tables are indeed temporary, which enables various optimizations such as not WAL-logging changes and using local rather than shared buffers for access. Aside from obvious performance benefits, this provides a solution to bug #3483, in which other backends unexpectedly held open file references to temporary tables. The scheme preserves the property that TOAST tables are not in any schema that's normally in the search path, so they don't conflict with user table names. initdb forced because of changes in system view definitions.
2007-07-25Suppress warning when compiling with -DPROFILE_PID_DIR: sys/stat.h isTom Lane
supposed to be included when using mkdir().
2007-07-25Adjust horology test to avoid join-plan-dependent result ordering inTom Lane
a few queries. Should fix buildfarm failures arising from new, more aggressive autovac settings.

warns about things that aren't wrong.
2007-07-25Silence compiler warnings on mingwMagnus Hagander
2007-07-25Implement RETURN QUERY for PL/PgSQL. This provides some convenient syntaxNeil Conway
sugar for PL/PgSQL set-returning functions that want to return the result of evaluating a query; it should also be more efficient than repeated RETURN NEXT statements. Based on an earlier patch from Pavel Stehule.
2007-07-24Fix predicate-proving logic to cope with binary-compatibility cases whenTom Lane
checking whether an IS NULL/IS NOT NULL clause is implied or refuted by a strict function. Per example from Dawid Kuroczko. Backpatch to 8.2 since this is arguably a performance bug.
