1999-09-08Cope with versions of vsnprintf() written by people whoTom Lane
don't read man pages...
1999-09-07Repair logic error in LIKE: should not return LIKE_ABORTTom Lane
when reach end of pattern before end of text. Improve code comments.
1999-09-07Irix linking fix from Yu Cao <yucao@falcon.kla-tencor.com>Tom Lane
1999-09-07Performance improvements in cnfify(): get rid of exponentialTom Lane
space consumption in pull_args, and avoid doing the full CNF transform on operands of operator clauses, where it's really not particularly helpful. This answers the TODO item about large numbers of OR clauses, at least partially. I was able to do a ten-thousand-OR-clause query with about 20Mb memory consumption ... it took an obscenely long time, but it worked...
1999-09-07Mike Ansley's fixes for long queries. This change justTom Lane
corrects flex myinput() routine so that it doesn't assume there is only one bufferload of data. We still have the issue of getting rid of YY_USES_REJECT so that the scanner can cope with tokens larger than its initial buffer size.
1999-09-06Additional long-query fixes from Mike Ansley and yours truly.Tom Lane
psql.c seems clean of query length restrictions now.
1999-09-06Mark bpchareq not hashjoinable, since it strips trailing blanksTom Lane
before comparison; if fields being joined are different widths then hashing will yield wrong answer. Also, remove hashjoinable mark from all uses of array_eq, because array structures may have padding bytes between elements and the pad bytes are of uncertain content. This could be revisited if array code is cleaned up. Modify opr_sanity regress test to complain if array_eq operator is marked hashjoinable.
1999-09-06I finally understood what sinvaladt.c is doing --- and itTom Lane
offended my aesthestic sensibility that there was so much unreadable code doing so little. Rewritten code is about half the size, faster, and (I hope) much more intelligible.
1999-09-06Fix relcache.c so that local relations (those created duringTom Lane
current transaction) are not flushed by shared-cache-inval reset message. SI reset actually works now, for probably the first time in a long time. I was able to run initdb and regression tests with a 16-element SI message array, with a lot of NOTICE: cache state reset messages but no crashes.
1999-09-06RelationCacheInvalidate thought there were 7 nailed-in-cacheTom Lane
system tables, but actually there are only 6 --- see RelationInitialize. Kinda makes you wonder how long ago this code was last executed...

1999-09-05Per Tatsuo's recommendation, change mdopen so that it won'tTom Lane
automatically create the file, except during bootstrap mode where that seems to be necessary.
1999-09-05Disallow DROP TABLE/DROP INDEX inside a transaction block.Tom Lane
We can't support these properly, since once the relation's physical files are unlinked, there's no way to roll back the transaction. I suppose we could postpone the unlink till transaction commit, but then what of BEGIN; DROP TABLE foo; CREATE TABLE foo; ? The code does allow dropping a table/index created in the current transaction block, however, since the post-abort state would be that the table doesn't exist anyway.
1999-09-05IsTransactionBlock() should return true in TBLOCK_ABORT state.Tom Lane
1999-09-04remove elogs used for debugging.Bruce Momjian
1999-09-04Intercept temp table lookups further up to map temp names.Bruce Momjian
1999-09-04In RelationNameGetRelation(), replace temp table name byTom Lane
real name before doing lookup. We only want to index temp tables by their real names in the relcache, to ensure there's not more than one relcache entry for them.
1999-09-04Avoid transaction overhead when there are no temp tablesTom Lane
to be deleted.
1999-09-04Remove no-longer-needed code to update temprel's copy ofTom Lane
pg_class tuple during ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN.
1999-09-04Invalidate temp entries for aborted transactions.Bruce Momjian
1999-09-04Modify RelationFlushRelation so that if the relcache entryTom Lane
has positive refcount, it is rebuilt from pg_class data. This ensures that relcache entries will track changes made by other backends. Formerly, a shared inval report would just be ignored if it happened to arrive while the relcache entry was in use. Also, fix relcache to reset ref counts to zero during transaction abort. Finally, change LockRelation() so that it checks for shared inval reports after obtaining the lock. In this way, once any kind of lock has been obtained on a rel, we can trust the relcache entry to be up-to-date.
1999-09-04Modify sinval so that InvalidateSharedInvalid() does not holdTom Lane
the SInval spinlock while it is calling the passed invalFunction or resetFunction. This is necessary to avoid deadlock with lmgr change; InvalidateSharedInvalid can be called recursively now. It should be a good performance improvement anyway --- holding a spinlock for more than a very short interval is a no-no.
1999-09-03Fix for perl5 on BSD/OS breaks most other platforms, so back it out.Thomas G. Lockhart
istm that this would be a job for configure. Most modern OSes actually use perl5 by default ;)

1999-09-02Rule deparser didn't handle unary operators correctly.Tom Lane
1999-09-02Repair a bunch of problems in md.c. This builds on Hiroshi'sTom Lane
insight that RelationFlushRelation ought to invoke smgrclose, and that the way to make that work is to ensure that mdclose doesn't fail if the relation is already closed (or unlinked, if we are looking at a DROP TABLE). While I was testing that, I was able to identify several problems that we had with multiple-segment relations. The system is now able to do initdb and pass the regression tests with a very small segment size (I had it set to 64Kb per segment for testing). I don't believe that ever worked before. File descriptor leaks seem to be gone too. I have partially addressed the concerns we had about mdtruncate(), too. On a Win32 or NFS filesystem it is not possible to unlink a file that another backend is holding open, so what md.c now does is to truncate unwanted files to zero length before trying to unlink them. The other backends will be forced to close their open files by relation cache invalidation --- but I think it would take considerable work to make that happen before vacuum truncates the relation rather than after. Leaving zero-length files lying around seems a usable compromise.
1999-09-01Document -x properly for pg_dump.Bruce Momjian
1999-08-31Commit the bulk of Mike Ansley's long-query changes in theTom Lane
backend. Still much left to do.
1999-08-31Update frontend libpq to remove limits on query lengths,Tom Lane
error/notice message lengths, and number of fields per tuple. Add pqexpbuffer.c/.h, a frontend version of backend's stringinfo module. This is first step in applying Mike Ansley's long-query patches, even though he didn't do any of these particular changes...
1999-08-31Minor improvements to stringinfo package to make it moreTom Lane
robust, since it's about to get used much more heavily.
1999-08-29Fix quoting problems in mkMakefile.tcldefs.sh.in andTom Lane
mkMakefile.tkdefs.sh.in.
1999-08-29Correct broken entries for pg_proc OIDs 1364 (time(abstime))Tom Lane
and 1370 (timestamp(datetime)). This does not force an initdb, exactly, but you won't see the effects of the bug fix until you do one. BTW, OID 1358 for timespan(time) is still broken: select timespan('21:11:26'::time); ERROR: No such function 'time_timespan' with the specified attributes But I couldn't figure out what it ought to be defined as, so I left it be.
1999-08-28Update rules test expected output to conform to slightlyTom Lane
more verbose results from ruleutils.c changes.
1999-08-28Fix several problems in rule deparsing: didn't handle arrayTom Lane
references or CASE expressions, didn't parenthesize complex expressions properly. Also, always output variable references as fully qualified names to eliminate ambiguity bug recently reported. (This could be smarter, but reliability comes first.)
1999-08-26Clean up some mistakes in handling of uplevel Vars in planner.Tom Lane
Most parts of the planner should ignore, or indeed never even see, uplevel Vars because they will be or have been replaced by Params. There were a couple of places that got it wrong though, probably my fault from recent changes...
1999-08-26Clean up some bugs in oper_select_candidate(), notably theTom Lane
last loop which would return the *first* surviving-to-that-point candidate regardless of which one actually passed the test. This was producing such curious results as 'oid % 2' getting translated to 'int2(oid) % 2'.
1999-08-25Revise implementation of SubLinks so that there is a consistent,Tom Lane
documented intepretation of the lefthand and oper fields. Fix a number of obscure problems while at it --- for example, the old code failed if the parser decided to insert a type-coercion function just below the operator of a SubLink. CAUTION: this will break stored rules that contain subplans. You may need to initdb.
1999-08-25Fix vacuum's memory consumptionTatsuo Ishii
1999-08-25Add new vpl_num_allocated_pages member to VPageListData.Tatsuo Ishii
It will keep track the number of pages allocated so that vacuum could allocate twice of the previous allocation. This will greatly reduce the total memory consumption of vacuum.
1999-08-24Alter AllocSet routines so that requests larger thanTom Lane
ALLOC_BIGCHUNK_LIMIT are always allocated as separate malloc() blocks, and are free()d immediately upon pfree(). Also, if such a chunk is enlarged with repalloc(), translate the operation into a realloc() so as to minimize memory usage. Of course, these large chunks still get freed automatically if the alloc set is reset. I have set ALLOC_BIGCHUNK_LIMIT at 64K for now, but perhaps another size would be better?
1999-08-24coerce_type() failed to guard against trying to convert a NULLTom Lane
constant to a different type. Not sure that this could happen in ordinary parser usage, but it can in some new code I'm working on...
1999-08-23Remove bogus code in oper_exact --- if it didn't find an exactTom Lane
match then it tried for a self-commutative operator with the reversed input data types. This is pretty silly; there could never be such an operator, except maybe in binary-compatible-type scenarios, and we have oper_inexact for that. Besides which, the oprsanity regress test would complain about such an operator. Remove nonfunctional code and simplify routine calling convention accordingly.
1999-08-22Further sort-order twiddling in optimizer: be smart aboutTom Lane
case where ORDER BY and GROUP BY request the same sort order.
1999-08-22Un-break code generated by ECPGRelease production.Tom Lane
1999-08-22Further planner/optimizer cleanups. Move all set_tlist_referencesTom Lane
and fix_opids processing to a single recursive pass over the plan tree executed at the very tail end of planning, rather than haphazardly here and there at different places. Now that tlist Vars do not get modified until the very end, it's possible to get rid of the klugy var_equal and match_varid partial-matching routines, and just use plain equal() throughout the optimizer. This is a step towards allowing merge and hash joins to be done on expressions instead of only Vars ...
1999-08-21Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of queryTom Lane
sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top level of the planner. This fixes many things. An explicit sort is now avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY. It works even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider the indexscan. It works for indexes on functions. It works for indexes on functions, backwards. It's just so cool... CAUTION: I have changed the representation of SortClause nodes, therefore THIS UPDATE BREAKS STORED RULES. You will need to initdb.
1999-08-21Cleanups for int8: guard against null inputs in comparisonTom Lane
operators (and some other places), fix rangechecks in int8 to int4 conversion (same problem we recently figured out in pg_atoi).
1999-08-21Ooops ... I had left some test coding in selfuncs.c thatTom Lane
failed on 'field < textconstant' ...
1999-08-18Old multi-byte bug. Forgot to rename #ifdef MB to #ifdef MULTIBYTETatsuo Ishii
Now SET NAMES working again...
