so it doesn't go through BuildTupleFromCStrings. This is more or less a

down to the default target size (1/4th page).

It appears that, for no particularly good reason, pg_listener.h deviates from
the usual convention for declaring attribute number constants. Normally, it's
#define Anum_{catalog-name}_{column-name} {attribute-number}
pg_listener.h, however substitutes a different string that is similar, but not
the same as, the column name. This change fixes that.

by using a lookup table instead of a naive shift-and-count loop. Based on
code originally posted by Sean Eron Anderson at
http://graphics.stanford.edu/%7eseander/bithacks.html.
Greg Stark did the research and benchmarking to show that this is what
we should use. Jeremy Kerr first noticed that this is a hotspot that
could be optimized, though we ended up not using his suggestion of
platform-specific bit-searching code.

reorder a semijoin into or out of the righthand side of another semijoin,
but actually it doesn't work to reorder it into or out of the righthand
side of a left or antijoin, either. Per bug #4906 from Mathieu Fenniak.
This was sloppy thinking on my part. This identity does work:
( A left join B on (Pab) ) semijoin C on (Pac)
==
( A semijoin C on (Pac) ) left join B on (Pab)
but I failed to see that that doesn't mean this does:
( A left join B on (Pab) ) semijoin C on (Pbc)
!=
A left join ( B semijoin C on (Pbc) ) on (Pab)

Backpatch to 8.4.X.

The original coding was not dealing specially with this file being a symlink,
with the end result that it was not installed in VPATH builds. Oddly enough,
the clean target does know about it ...

Error messages from PL/Python now always mention the function name in the
CONTEXT: field. This also obsoletes the few places that tried to do the
same manually.
Regression test files are updated to work with Python 2.4-2.6. I don't have
access to older versions right now.

foo <> false, along with its previous duties of simplifying foo = true
and foo = false. (All of these are equivalent to just foo or NOT foo
as the case may be.) It's not clear how often this is really useful;
but it costs almost nothing to do, and it seems some people think we
should be smart about such cases. Per recent bug report.

sequence, even when the input "tour" doesn't lead directly to such a sequence.
The stack logic that was added in 2004 only supported cases where relations
that had to be joined to each other (due to join order restrictions) were
adjacent in the tour. However, relying on a random search to figure that out
is tremendously inefficient in large join problems, and could even fail
completely (leading to "failed to make a valid plan" errors) if
random_init_pool ran out of patience. It seems better to make the
tour-to-plan transformation a little bit fuzzier so that every tour can form
a legal plan, even though this means that apparently different tours will
sometimes yield the same plan.
In the same vein, get rid of the logic that knew that tours (a,b,c,d,...)
are the same as tours (b,a,c,d,...), and therefore insisted the latter
are invalid. The chance of generating two tours that differ only in
this way isn't that high, and throwing out 50% of possible tours to
avoid such duplication seems more likely to waste valuable genetic-
refinement generations than to do anything useful.
This leaves us with no cases in which geqo_eval will deem a tour invalid,
so get rid of assorted kluges that tried to deal with such cases, in
particular the undocumented assumption that DBL_MAX is an impossible
plan cost.
This is all per testing of Robert Haas' lets-remove-the-collapse-limits
patch. That idea has crashed and burned, at least for now, but we still
got something useful out of it.
It's possible we should back-patch this change, since the "failed to make a
valid plan" error can happen in existing releases; but I'd rather not until
it has gotten more testing.

by unique-ifying the RHS and then inner-joining to some other relation,
that is not grounds for violating the RHS of some other outer join.
Noticed while regression-testing new GEQO code, which will blindly follow
any path that join_is_legal says is legal, and then complain later if that
leads to a dead end.
I'm not certain that this can result in any visible failure in 8.4: the
mistake may always be masked by the fact that subsequent attempts to join
the rest of the RHS of the other join will fail. But I'm not certain it
can't, either, and it's definitely not operating as intended. So back-patch.
The added regression test depends on the new no-failures-allowed logic
that I'm about to commit in GEQO, so no point back-patching that.

memory leakage in error recovery. We were calling FreeExprContext, and
therefore invoking ExprContextCallback callbacks, in both normal and error
exits from subtransactions. However this isn't very safe, as shown in
recent trouble report from Frank van Vugt, in which releasing a tupledesc
refcount failed. It's also unnecessary, since the resources that callbacks
might wish to release should be cleaned up by other error recovery mechanisms
(ie the resource owners). We only really want FreeExprContext to release
memory attached to the exprcontext in the error-exit case. So, add a bool
parameter to FreeExprContext to tell it not to call the callbacks.
A more general solution would be to pass the isCommit bool parameter on to
the callbacks, so they could do only safe things during error exit. But
that would make the patch significantly more invasive and possibly break
third-party code that registers ExprContextCallback callbacks. We might want
to do that later in HEAD, but for now I'll just do what seems reasonable to
back-patch.

that the sanity checking I added to create_mergejoin_plan() in 8.3 was a
few bricks shy of a load: the mergeclauses could reference pathkeys in a
noncanonical order such as x,y,x, not only cases like x,x,y which is all
that the code had allowed for. The odd cases only turn up when using
redundant clauses in an outer join condition, which is why no one had
noticed before.

random number seed each time. This is how it used to work years ago, but
we got rid of the seed reset because it was resetting the main random()
sequence and thus having undesirable effects on the rest of the system.
To fix, establish a private random number state for each execution of
geqo(), and initialize the state using the new GUC variable geqo_seed.
People who want to experiment with different random searches can do so
by changing geqo_seed, but you'll always get the same plan for the same
value of geqo_seed (if holding all other planner inputs constant, of course).
The new state is kept in PlannerInfo by adding a "void *" field reserved
for use by join_search hooks. Most of the rather bulky code changes in
this commit are just arranging to pass PlannerInfo around to all the GEQO
functions (many of which formerly didn't receive it).

and extend configure to test for it properly instead of hard-wiring
an assumption that everybody but Windows has the rand48 functions.
(We do cheat to the extent of assuming that probing for erand48 will do
for the entire rand48 family.)
erand48() is unused as of this commit, but a followon patch will cause
GEQO to depend on it.

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.

(Apparently, some but not all versions of Bison will warn about this.)
|
|
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.)

RevalidateCachedPlan. This is to avoid a "SPI_ERROR_CONNECT" failure when
the planner calls a SPI-using function and we are already inside one.
The alternative fix is to expect callers of RevalidateCachedPlan to do this,
which seems likely to result in additional hard-to-detect bugs of omission.
Per reports from Frank van Vugt and Marek Lewczuk.
Back-patch to 8.3. It's much harder to trigger the bug in 8.3, due to a
smaller set of cases in which plans can be invalidated, but it could happen.
(I think perhaps only a SI reset event could make 8.3 fail here, but that's
certainly within the realm of possibility.)

size_t arguments, the emitted scanner actually prototypes them with
type yy_size_t, which is sometimes not the same thing depending on
flex version and platform. Easiest fix seems to be to use yy_size_t.

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.

RelOptInfo targetlist. It used to be that the only possibility other than
a Var was a RowExpr representing a whole-row child Var, but as of 8.4's
expanded ability to flatten appendrel members, we can get arbitrary expressions
in there. Use the expression's type info and get_typavgwidth() to produce
an at-least-marginally-sane result. Note that get_typavgwidth()'s fallback
estimate (32 bytes) is the same as what was here before, so there will be
no behavioral change for RowExprs. Noted while looking at recent gripe
about constant quals pushed down to FunctionScan appendrel members ...
not only were we failing to recognize the constant qual, we were getting
the width estimate wrong :-(

LC_CTYPE settings to children via BackendParameters. Per discussion,
the postmaster is now just using system defaults anyway, so we might as
well save a few cycles during backend startup.
|
|
Otherwise, the LC_CTYPE/COLLATE setting gets reverted when using plperl, which
leads to incorrect query results and index corruption.
This was accidentally broken in the per-database locale patch in 8.4. Pointed
out by Andrew Gierth.

For servers older than 8.3, sort display of child tables by relname instead
of oid::regclass::text, because the cast from regclass to text did not work
back then. The older display may be slightly worse when different schemas
are involved, but that should be rare enough.

more pg_catalog. qualifications.

This was an oversight in the recent patch. Found by Tom Lane.

For character types with typmod, character_octet_length columns in the
information schema now show the maximum character length times the
maximum length of a character in the server encoding, instead of some
huge value as before.

Safely schema-qualify the pg_get_indexdef call, make the query a bit
prettier in -E mode, remove useless join to pg_index, make it more obvious
that the header[] array is not overrun.

timestamp_trunc, timestamptz_trunc, and interval_trunc(). This change
only affects the float-datetime case; the integer-datetime case already
behaved like truncation instead of rounding. Per gripe from Mario Splivalo.
This is a pre-existing issue but I'm choosing not to backpatch, because
it's such a corner case and there have not been prior complaints. The
issue is largely moot anyway given the trend towards integer datetimes.
|
|
In what seems like an oversight, we used to treat 'TH' the same as lowercase
'th', but only with HH/HH12.
|
|
substituting a child rel's output expressions into the appendrel's restriction
clauses yields a pseudoconstant restriction. We might be able to skip scanning
that child rel entirely (if we get constant FALSE), or generate a one-time
filter. 8.3 more or less accidentally generated plans that weren't completely
stupid in these cases, but that was only because an extra recursive level of
subquery_planner() always occurred and allowed const-simplification to happen.
8.4's ability to pull up appendrel members with non-Var outputs exposes the
fact that we need to work harder here. Per gripe from Sergey Burladyan.

This adds a column called "Definition" to the output of psql \d on an
index, which shows the full expression behind the index column. For indexes
on plain columns, this is redundant, but for expression indexes, this
reveals the real expression.

parentheses around the <query expression body> that follows a WITH clause, eg
with cte(foo) as ( values(0) ) ((select foo from cte));
This seems to be just an oversight/thinko in gram.y. Noted while
experimenting with bug #4902.
|

the "cteParam" as a proxy for the possibility that the underlying CTE plan
depends on outer-level variables or Params, but that doesn't work very well
because it sometimes causes calling subqueries to be treated as SubPlans when
they could be InitPlans. This is inefficient and also causes the outright
failure exhibited in bug #4902. Instead, leave the cteParam out of it and
copy the underlying CTE plan's extParams directly. Per bug #4902 from
Marko Tiikkaja.
