2005-03-01And while we are on it, I would like to submit minorBruce Momjian
changes to make snprintf() vsnprintf() and printf() functions in src/port/snprintf.c thread-safe. Nicolai Tufar
2005-03-01Revert the logic for expanding AND/OR conditions in pred_test() to whatTom Lane
it was in 7.4, and add some comments explaining why it has to be this way. I broke it for OR'd index predicates in a fit of code cleanup last summer. Per example from Sergey Koshcheyev.

2005-02-26Finish up the flat-files project: get rid of GetRawDatabaseInfo() hackTom Lane
in favor of looking at the flat file copy of pg_database during backend startup. This should finally eliminate the various corner cases in which backend startup fails unexpectedly because it isn't able to distinguish live and dead tuples in pg_database. Simplify locking on pg_database to be similar to the rules used with pg_shadow and pg_group, and eliminate FlushRelationBuffers operations that were used only to reduce the odds of failure of GetRawDatabaseInfo. initdb forced due to addition of a trigger to pg_database.

2005-02-24My patch this morning was overly hasty; revert code to original state.Tom Lane

subsequently referenced. Found by: Coverity Fixed by: Sean Chittenden
2005-02-23This patch optimizes the md5_text() function (which is used toNeil Conway
implement the md5() SQL-level function). The old code did the following: 1. de-toast the datum 2. convert it to a cstring via textout() 3. get the length of the cstring via strlen() Since we are treating the datum context as a blob of binary data, the latter two steps are unnecessary. Once the data has been detoasted, we can just use it as-is, and derive its length from the varlena metadata. This patch improves some run-of-the-mill md5() computations by just under 10% in my limited tests, and passes the regression tests. I also noticed that md5_text() wasn't checking the return value of md5_hash(); encountering OOM at precisely the right moment could result in returning a random md5 hash. This patch corrects that. A better fix would be to make md5_hash() only return on success (and/or allocate via palloc()), but since it's used in the frontend as well I don't see an easy way to do that.
2005-02-23Un-break plpgsql build by removing unwanted _() usage.Tom Lane
This would be a completely inappropriate place to apply localization anyway.
2005-02-23Properly undef _(x) gettext macro.Bruce Momjian
2005-02-22This patch changes makes some significant changes to how compilationNeil Conway
and parsing work in PL/PgSQL: - memory management is now done via palloc(). The compiled representation of each function now has its own memory context. Therefore, the storage consumed by a function can be reclaimed via MemoryContextDelete(). During compilation, the CurrentMemoryContext is the function's memory context. This means that a palloc() is sufficient to allocate memory that will have the same lifetime as the function itself. As a result, code invoked during compilation should be careful to pfree() temporary allocations to avoid leaking memory. Since a lot of the code in the backend is not careful about releasing palloc'ed memory, that means we should switch into a temporary memory context before invoking backend functions. A temporary context appropriate for such allocations is `compile_tmp_cxt'. - The ability to use palloc() allows us to simply a lot of the code in the parser. Rather than representing lists of elements via ad hoc linked lists or arrays, we can use the List type. Rather than doing malloc followed by memset(0), we can just use palloc0(). - We now check that the user has supplied the right number of parameters to a RAISE statement. Supplying either too few or too many results in an error (at runtime). - PL/PgSQL's parser needs to accept arbitrary SQL statements. Since we do not want to duplicate the SQL grammar in the PL/PgSQL grammar, this means we need to be quite lax in what the PL/PgSQL grammar considers a "SQL statement". This can lead to misleading behavior if there is a syntax error in the function definition, since we assume a malformed PL/PgSQL construct is a SQL statement. Furthermore, these errors were only detected at runtime (when we tried to execute the alleged "SQL statement" via SPI). To rectify this, the patch changes the parser to invoke the main SQL parser when it sees a string it believes to be a SQL expression. This means that synctically-invalid SQL will be rejected during the compilation of the PL/PgSQL function. This is only done when compiling for "validation" purposes (i.e. at CREATE FUNCTION time), so it should not impose a runtime overhead. - Fixes for the various buffer overruns I've patched in stable branches in the past few weeks. I've rewritten code where I thought it was warranted (unlike the patches applied to older branches, which were minimally invasive). - Various other minor changes and cleanups. - Updates to the regression tests.
2005-02-22Add semicolon so snprintf.c goto has a statement to attach to:Bruce Momjian
nochar: /* nothing */ ; /* semicolon required because a goto has to be attached to a statement */
2005-02-22Use _() macro consistently rather than gettext(). Add translationBruce Momjian
macros around strings that were missing them.
2005-02-22Add support to port/snprintf.c for position parameter specification:Bruce Momjian
+ # Determine if printf supports %1$ argument selection, e.g. %5$ selects + # the fifth argument after the printf print string. + # This is not in the C99 standard, but in the Single Unix Specification (SUS). + # It is used in our langauge translation strings. Nicolai Tufar with configure changes by Bruce.
2005-02-21Try to get Borland CC to compile.Bruce Momjian
Backpatch to 8.0.X which doesn't work right now.
2005-02-21Trivial fix: change the reference to further documentation of pathkeys toNeil Conway
point to its new location.
2005-02-20Use SnapshotNow instead of SnapshotSelf for reading the catalogsTom Lane
during flat-file writing. The only difference is that SnapshotSelf would consider tuples of the 'current command' within the current transaction as valid, where SnapshotNow wouldn't. We can eliminate the need for this with one extra CommandCounterIncrement call before we start reading the catalogs.
2005-02-20Remove some no-longer-needed kluges for bootstrapping, in particularTom Lane
the AMI_OVERRIDE flag. The fact that TransactionLogFetch treats BootstrapTransactionId as always committed is sufficient to make bootstrap work, and getting rid of extra tests in heavily used code paths seems like a win. The files produced by initdb are demonstrably the same after this change.

2005-02-20Move define MAKE_ALL_TUPLES_VISIBLE to a more logical place.Bruce Momjian
2005-02-20I have added a define, MAKE_ALL_TUPLES_VISIBLE, to help people recoverBruce Momjian
deleted tuples. Of course it is only to be used for disaster recovery.
2005-02-20Flat file cleanup phase 2: make it work for pg_group. The flat groupTom Lane
file now identifies group members by usesysid not name; this avoids needing to depend on SearchSysCache which we can't use during startup. (The old representation was entirely broken anyway, since we did not regenerate the file following RENAME USER.) It's only a 95% solution because if the group membership list is big enough to be toasted out of line, we cannot read it during startup. I think this will do for the moment, until we have time to implement the planned pg_role replacement for pg_group.
2005-02-20Add code to prevent transaction ID wraparound by enforcing a safe limitTom Lane
in GetNewTransactionId(). Since the limit value has to be computed before we run any real transactions, this requires adding code to database startup to scan pg_database and determine the oldest datfrozenxid. This can conveniently be combined with the first stage of an attack on the problem that the 'flat file' copies of pg_shadow and pg_group are not properly updated during WAL recovery. The code I've added to startup resides in a new file src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c, and it is responsible for rewriting the flat files as well as initializing the XID wraparound limit value. This will eventually allow us to get rid of GetRawDatabaseInfo too, but we'll need an initdb so we can add a trigger to pg_database.
2005-02-19New arrangement to always let the bgwriter do checkpoints brokeTom Lane
CHECKPOINT and some other commands in the context of a standalone backend. Allow a standalone backend to do its own checkpoints.

DEBUG. Fix a few places where DEBUG1 crept in that should have been DEBUG2.
2005-02-11Add a regression test to verify that the stack depth checker actuallyTom Lane
works (and max_stack_depth is not set too high for the platform). Inspired by trouble report from Brian Betts.
2005-02-11Adjust input routines for float4, float8 and oid to reject the empty stringNeil Conway
as valid input (it was previously treated as 0). This input was deprecated in 8.0 (and a warning was emitted). Regression tests updated.

Per gripes from Mike Mascari and Bernd Heller.
2005-02-10Fix SPI cursor support to allow scanning the results of utility commandsTom Lane
that return tuples (such as EXPLAIN). Per gripe from Michael Fuhr. Side effect: fix an old bug that unintentionally disabled backward scans for all SPI-created cursors.

2005-02-09ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN exhibits a significant memory leak when adding aNeil Conway
column with a default expression. In that situation, we need to rewrite the heap relation. To evaluate the new default expression, we use ExecEvalExpr(); however, this can allocate memory in the current memory context, and ATRewriteTable() does not switch out of the active portal's heap memory context. The end result is a rather large memory leak (on the order of gigabytes for a reasonably sized table). This patch changes ATRewriteTable() to switch to the per-tuple memory context before beginning the per-tuple loop. It also removes an explicit heap_freetuple() in the loop, since that is no longer needed. In an unrelated change, I noticed the code was scanning through the attributes of the new tuple descriptor for each tuple of the old table. I changed this to use precomputation, which should slightly speed up the loop. Thanks to steve@deefs.net for reporting the leak.
