2010-06-03Adjust misleading comment in walsender.c. We try to send all WAL data that'sTom Lane
been written out from shared memory, but the previous phrasing might be read to say that we send only what's been fsync'd.
2010-06-03Add current WAL end (as seen by walsender, ie, GetWriteRecPtr() result)Tom Lane
and current server clock time to SR data messages. These are not currently used on the slave side but seem likely to be useful in future, and it'd be better not to change the SR protocol after release. Per discussion. Also do some minor code review and cleanup on walsender.c, and improve the protocol documentation.

2010-06-03Fix some inconsistent quoting of wal_level values in messagesPeter Eisentraut
When referring to postgresql.conf syntax, then it's without quotes (wal_level=archive); in narrative it's with double quotes. But never single quotes.

2010-06-03Bump PG_CONTROL_VERSION to account for the incompatible change committed ↵Tom Lane
earlier.

2010-05-31Send all outstanding WAL before exiting when smart shutdown is requested.Heikki Linnakangas
This was broken by my previous patch to send WAL in smaller batches. Patch by Fujii Masao.
2010-05-30Fix misuse of Lossy Counting (LC) algorithm in compute_tsvector_stats().Tom Lane
We must filter out hashtable entries with frequencies less than those specified by the algorithm, else we risk emitting junk entries whose actual frequency is much less than other lexemes that did not get tabulated. This is bad enough by itself, but even worse is that tsquerysel() believes that the minimum frequency seen in pg_statistic is a hard upper bound for lexemes not included, and was thus underestimating the frequency of non-MCEs. Also, set the threshold frequency to something with a little bit of theory behind it, to wit assume that the input distribution is approximately Zipfian. This might need adjustment in future, but some preliminary experiments suggest that it's not too unreasonable. Back-patch to 8.4, where this code was introduced. Jan Urbanski, with some editorialization by Tom
2010-05-30Change the notation for calling functions with named parameters fromTom Lane
"val AS name" to "name := val", as per recent discussion. This patch catches everything in the original named-parameters patch, but I'm not certain that no other dependencies snuck in later (grepping the source tree for all uses of AS soon proved unworkable). In passing I note that we've dropped the ball at least once on keeping ecpg's lexer (as opposed to parser) in sync with the backend. It would be a good idea to go through all of pgc.l and see if it's in sync now. I didn't attempt that at the moment.
2010-05-29Add C comment that we will have to remove an exclusion constraint checkBruce Momjian
if we ever implement '<>' index opclasses. Jeff Davis
2010-05-28Abort a FETCH_COUNT-controlled query if we observe any I/O error on theTom Lane
output stream. This typically indicates that the user quit out of $PAGER, or that we are writing to a file and ran out of disk space. In either case we shouldn't bother to continue fetching data. Stephen Frost
2010-05-28Fix oversight in the previous patch that made LIKE throw error for \ at theTom Lane
end of the pattern: the code path that handles \ just after % should throw error too. As in the previous patch, not back-patching for fear of breaking apps that worked before.
2010-05-28Rewrite LIKE's %-followed-by-_ optimization so it really works (this timeTom Lane
for sure ;-)). It now also optimizes more cases, such as %_%_. Improve comments too. Per bug #5478. In passing, also rename the TCHAR macro to GETCHAR, because pgindent is messing with the formatting of the former (apparently it now thinks TCHAR is a typedef name). Back-patch to 8.3, where the bug was introduced.
2010-05-28PGDLLEXPORT is __declspec (dllexport) only on MSVC,Itagaki Takahiro
but is __declspec (dllimport) on other compilers because cygwin and mingw don't like dllexport.
2010-05-28Rejigger mergejoin logic so that a tuple with a null in the first merge columnTom Lane
is treated like end-of-input, if nulls sort last in that column and we are not doing outer-join filling for that input. In such a case, the tuple cannot join to anything from the other input (because we assume mergejoinable operators are strict), and neither can any tuple following it in the sort order. If we're not interested in doing outer-join filling we can just pretend the tuple and its successors aren't there at all. This can save a great deal of time in situations where there are many nulls in the join column, as in a recent example from Scott Marlowe. Also, since the planner tends to not count nulls in its mergejoin scan selectivity estimates, this is an important fix to make the runtime behavior more like the estimate. I regard this as an omission in the patch I wrote years ago to teach mergejoin that tuples containing nulls aren't joinable, so I'm back-patching it. But only to 8.3 --- in older versions, we didn't have a solid notion of whether nulls sort high or low, so attempting to apply this optimization could break things.
2010-05-27Change ps_status.c to explicitly track the current logical length of ps_buffer.Tom Lane
This saves cycles in get_ps_display() on many popular platforms, and more importantly ensures that get_ps_display() will correctly return an empty string if init_ps_display() hasn't been called yet. Per trouble report from Ray Stell, in which log_line_prefix %i produced junk early in backend startup. Back-patch to 8.0. 7.4 doesn't have %i and its version of get_ps_display() makes no pretense of avoiding pad junk anyhow.
2010-05-27Fix the volatility marking of textanycat() and anytextcat(): they were markedTom Lane
immutable, but that is wrong in general because the cast from the polymorphic argument to text could be stable or even volatile. Mark them volatile for safety. In the typical case where the cast isn't volatile, the planner will deduce the correct expression volatility after inlining the function, so performance is not lost. The just-committed fix in CREATE INDEX also ensures this won't break any indexing cases that ought to be allowed. Per discussion, I'm not bumping catversion for this change, as it doesn't seem critical enough to force an initdb on beta testers.
2010-05-27Make CREATE INDEX run expression preprocessing on a proposed index expressionTom Lane
before it checks whether the expression is immutable. This covers two cases that were previously handled poorly: 1. SQL function inlining could reduce the apparent volatility of the expression, allowing an expression to be accepted where it previously would not have been. As an example, polymorphic functions must be marked with the worst-case volatility they have for any argument type, but for specific argument types they might not be so volatile, so indexing could be allowed. (Since the planner will refuse to inline functions in cases where the apparent volatility of the expression would increase, this won't break any cases that were accepted before.) 2. A nominally immutable function could have default arguments that are volatile expressions. In such a case insertion of the defaults will increase both the apparent and actual volatility of the expression, so it is *necessary* to check this before allowing the expression to be indexed. Back-patch to 8.4, where default arguments were introduced.
2010-05-27Mark PG_MODULE_MAGIC and PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 with PGDLLEXPORTItagaki Takahiro
independently from BUILDING_DLL. It is always __declspec(dllexport).
2010-05-27Avoid starting walreceiver in states where it shouldn't be running.Robert Haas
In particular, it's bad to start walreceiver when in state PM_WAIT_BACKENDS, because we have no provision to kill walreceiver when in that state. Fujii Masao
2010-05-27Adjust comment to reflect that we now have Hot Standby. Pointed out byHeikki Linnakangas
Robert Haas.
2010-05-26Thinko in previous commit: ensure that MAX_SEND_SIZE is always greaterHeikki Linnakangas
than XLOG_BLCKSZ, by defining it as 16 * XLOG_BLCKSZ rather than directly as 128k bytes.
2010-05-26In walsender, don't sleep if there's outstanding WAL waiting to be sent,Heikki Linnakangas
otherwise we effectively rate-limit the streaming as pointed out by Simon Riggs. Also, send the WAL in smaller chunks, to respond to signals more promptly.
2010-05-26Rearrange libpq's SSL initialization to simplify it and make it handle someTom Lane
additional cases correctly. The original coding failed to load additional (chain) certificates from the client cert file, meaning that indirectly signed client certificates didn't work unless one hacked the server's root.crt file to include intermediate CAs (not the desired approach). Another problem was that everything got loaded into the shared SSL_context object, which meant that concurrent connections trying to use different sslcert settings could well fail due to conflicting over the single available slot for a keyed certificate. To fix, get rid of the use of SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb(), which is deprecated anyway in the OpenSSL documentation, and instead just unconditionally load the client cert and private key during connection initialization. This lets us use SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file(), which does the right thing with additional certs, and is lots simpler than the previous hacking about with BIO-level access. A small disadvantage is that we have to load the primary client cert a second time with SSL_use_certificate_file, so that that one ends up in the correct slot within the connection's SSL object where it can get paired with the key. Given the other overhead of making an SSL connection, that doesn't seem worth worrying about. Per discussion ensuing from bug #5468.
2010-05-26Fix bogus error message for SSL-cert authentication, due to lack ofTom Lane
a uaCert entry in auth_failed(). Put the switch entries into a sane order, namely the one the enum is declared in.
2010-05-26HS Defer buffer pin deadlock check until deadlock_timeout has expired.Simon Riggs
During Hot Standby we need to check for buffer pin deadlocks when the Startup process begins to wait, in case it never wakes up again. We previously made the deadlock check immediately on the basis it was cheap, though clearer thinking and prima facie evidence shows that was too simple. Refactor existing code to make it easy to add in deferral of deadlock check until deadlock_timeout allowing a good reduction in deadlock checks since far few buffer pins are held for that duration. It's worth doing anyway, though major goal is to prevent further reports of context switching with high numbers of users on occasional tests.

infelicities.
2010-05-26Tell openssl to include the names of the root certs the server trusts inTom Lane
requests for client certs. This lets a client with a keystore select the appropriate client certificate to send. In particular, this is necessary to get Java clients to work in all but the most trivial configurations. Per discussion of bug #5468. Craig Ringer
2010-05-26More fixes for shutdown during recovery.Robert Haas
1. If we receive a fast shutdown request while in the PM_STARTUP state, process it just as we would in PM_RECOVERY, PM_HOT_STANDBY, or PM_RUN. Without this change, an early fast shutdown followed by Hot Standby causes the database to get stuck in a state where a shutdown is pending (so no new connections are allowed) but the shutdown request is never processed unless we end Hot Standby and enter normal running. 2. Avoid removing the backup label file when a smart or fast shutdown occurs during recovery. It makes sense to do this once we've reached normal running, since we must be taking a backup which now won't be valid. But during recovery we must be recovering from a previously taken backup, and any backup label file is needed to restart recovery from the right place. Fujii Masao and Robert Haas
2010-05-25Add missing newlines to some SSL-related error messages. Noted while testing.Tom Lane
2010-05-25Fix oversight in construction of sort/unique plans for UniquePaths.Tom Lane
If the original IN operator is cross-type, for example int8 = int4, we need to use int4 < int4 to sort the inner data and int4 = int4 to unique-ify it. We got the first part of that right, but tried to use the original IN operator for the equality checks. Per bug #5472 from Vlad Romascanu. Backpatch to 8.4, where the bug was introduced by the patch that unified SortClause and GroupClause. I was able to take out a whole lot of on-the-fly calls of get_equality_op_for_ordering_op(), but failed to realize that I needed to put one back in right here :-(

2010-05-21Unbreak \h; can't do strlen(NULL).Robert Haas
This was broken by the following commmit. Although the original commit was backpatched all the way to 7.4, this particular bug exists only in the version applied to HEAD. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2010-05/msg00058.php

2010-05-15Ensure that pg_restore -l will output DATABASE entries whether or not -CTom Lane
is specified. Per bug report from Russell Smith and ensuing discussion. Since this is a corner case behavioral change, I'm going to be conservative and not back-patch it. In passing, also rename the RestoreOptions field for the -C switch to something less generic than "create".
