sections now isn't nested. All user-defined functions now is called outside critsections. Small improvements in WAL protocol. TODO: improve XLOG replay
2006-05-17Rename macro parameter, for clarity.Bruce Momjian
2006-05-12Fix the sense of the test on DH_check()'s return value. This was preventingTom Lane
custom-generated DH parameters from actually being used by the server. Found by Michael Fuhr.
2006-05-12Upon closer inspection, the sparc code in s_lock.c is dead code, andTom Lane
always has been, because it's not got any .globl declaration! We've been relying on the solaris_sparc.s code instead. Rip it out. (Not back-patched, since this is just cosmetic cleanup.)

Backpatch to 8.1.X.
2006-05-11Code review for standard_conforming_strings patch. Fix it so it does notTom Lane
throw warnings for 100%-SQL-standard constructs, clean up some minor infelicities, try to un-break ecpg to the best of my ability. (It's not clear how ecpg is going to find out the setting of standard_conforming_strings, though.) I think pg_dump still needs work, too.
2006-05-10Clean up code associated with updating pg_class statistics columnsTom Lane
(relpages/reltuples). To do this, create formal support in heapam.c for "overwrite" tuple updates (including xlog replay capability) and use that instead of the ad-hoc overwrites we'd been using in VACUUM and CREATE INDEX. Take the responsibility for updating stats during CREATE INDEX out of the individual index AMs, and do it where it belongs, in catalog/index.c. Aside from being more modular, this avoids having to update the same tuple twice in some paths through CREATE INDEX. It's probably not measurably faster, but for sure it's a lot cleaner than before.

insertion and deletion, modify gistSplit() to do not use buffers. TODO: gistvacuumcleanup and XLOG
2006-05-08Build server libpgport with all non-FRONTEND object files. This is toBruce Momjian
fix a Win32 bug where pipe.c included a file that used FRONTEND, but it wasn't on the server-build list.
2006-05-08Rewrite btree vacuuming to fold the former bulkdelete and cleanup operationsTom Lane
into a single mostly-physical-order scan of the index. This requires some ticklish interlocking considerations, but should create no material performance impact on normal index operations (at least given the already-committed changes to make scans work a page at a time). VACUUM itself should get significantly faster in any index that's degenerated to a very nonlinear page order. Also, we save one pass over the index entirely, except in the case where there were no deletions to do and so only one pass happened anyway. Original patch by Heikki Linnakangas, rework by Tom Lane.
2006-05-07Rewrite btree index scans to work a page at a time in all cases (bothTom Lane
btgettuple and btgetmulti). This eliminates the problem of "re-finding" the exact stopping point, since the stopping point is effectively always a page boundary, and index items are never moved across pre-existing page boundaries. A small penalty is that the keys_are_unique optimization is effectively disabled (and, therefore, is removed in this patch), causing us to apply _bt_checkkeys() to at least one more tuple than necessary when looking up a unique key. However, the advantages for non-unique cases seem great enough to accept this tradeoff. Aside from simplifying and (sometimes) speeding up the indexscan code, this will allow us to reimplement btbulkdelete as a largely sequential scan instead of index-order traversal, thereby significantly reducing the cost of VACUUM. Those changes will come in a separate patch. Original patch by Heikki Linnakangas, rework by Tom Lane.
2006-05-07Use $(LIBS:-lpgport=) rather than $(patsubst -lpgport,, $(LIBS)), for ↵Bruce Momjian
consistency.
2006-05-06Further minor simplification of relcache startup: don't need a staticTom Lane
needNewCacheFile flag anymore, it can just be local in RelationCacheInitializePhase2.

2006-05-04Don't try to compile SSL CRL support if local SSL installation hasn'tTom Lane
got it. Per buildfarm failure on 'canary'.
2006-05-04Simplify relcache startup sequence. With the new design of InitPostgresTom Lane
it's not necessary to have three separate calls anymore. This patch also fixes things so we don't try to read pg_internal.init until after we've obtained lock on the target database; which was fairly harmless, but it's certainly cleaner this way.
2006-05-04Rethink the locking mechanisms used for CREATE/DROP/RENAME DATABASE.Tom Lane
The former approach used ExclusiveLock on pg_database, which being a cluster-wide lock meant only one of these operations could proceed at a time; worse, it also blocked all incoming connections in ReverifyMyDatabase. Now that we have LockSharedObject(), we can use locks of different types applied to databases considered as objects. This allows much more flexible management of the interlocking: two CREATE DATABASEs need not block each other, and need not block connections except to the template database being used. Similarly DROP DATABASE doesn't block unrelated operations. The locking used in flatfiles.c is also much narrower in scope than before. Per recent proposal.
2006-05-03Create a syscache for pg_database-indexed-by-oid, and make use of itTom Lane
in various places that were previously doing ad hoc pg_database searches. This may speed up database-related privilege checks a little bit, but the main motivation is to eliminate the performance reason for having ReverifyMyDatabase do such a lot of stuff (viz, avoiding repeat scans of pg_database during backend startup). The locking reason for having that routine is about to go away, and it'd be good to have the option to break it up.
2006-05-03Fix typo noticed by Alvaro HerreraTeodor Sigaev
2006-05-03Fix calculation of plan node extParams to account for the possibility that oneTom Lane
initPlan sets a parameter for another. This could not (I think) happen before 8.1, but it's possible now because the initPlans generated by MIN/MAX optimization might themselves use initPlans. We attach those initPlans as siblings of the MIN/MAX ones, not children, to avoid duplicate computation when multiple MIN/MAX aggregates are present; so this leads to the case of an initPlan needing the result of a sibling initPlan, which is not possible with ordinary query nesting. Hadn't been noticed because in most contexts having too much stuff listed in extParam is fairly harmless. Fixes "plan should not reference subplan's variable" bug reported by Catalin Pitis.
2006-05-02Clean up API for ambulkdelete/amvacuumcleanup as per today's discussion.Tom Lane
This formulation requires every AM to provide amvacuumcleanup, unlike before, but it's surely a whole lot cleaner. Also, add an 'amstorage' column to pg_am so that we can get rid of hardwired knowledge in DefineOpClass().

2006-05-02Avoid assuming that statistics for a parent relation reflect the properties ofTom Lane
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.
2006-05-01Provide a namespace.c function for lookup of an operator with exactTom Lane
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.
2006-04-30Code review for GRANT CONNECT patch. Spell the privilege as CONNECT notTom Lane
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.

2006-04-29We only need to add thread.c on non-WIN32 platforms, since get_home_pathTom Lane

2006-04-28Remove the restriction originally coded into optimize_minmax_aggregates() thatTom Lane
MIN/MAX not be converted to use an index if the query WHERE clause contains any volatile functions or subplans. I had originally feared that the conversion might alter the behavior of such a query with respect to a volatile function. Well, so it might, but only in the sense that the function would get evaluated at a subset of the table rows rather than all of them --- and we have never made any such guarantee anyway. (For instance, we don't refuse to use an index for an ordinary non-aggregate query when one of the non-indexable filter conditions contains a volatile function.) The prohibition against subplans was because of worry that that case wasn't adequately tested, which it wasn't, but it turns out to be possible to make 8.1 fail anyway: regression=# select o.ten, (select max(unique2) from tenk1 i where ten = o.ten or ten = (select f1 from int4_tbl limit 1)) from tenk1 o; ERROR: direct correlated subquery unsupported as initplan This is due to bogus code in SS_make_initplan_from_plan (it's an initplan, ergo it can't have any parParams). Having fixed that, we might as well allow subplans as well as initplans.
