2009-04-26Remove Windows-specific definition of S_ISDIR(). This should not be here;Tom Lane
if there are any Windows configurations where port/win32.h fails to provide the macro, it should be fixed in the latter file not here.
2009-04-25Fix the handling of sub-SELECTs appearing in the arguments of an outer-levelTom Lane
aggregate function. By definition, such a sub-SELECT cannot reference any variables of query levels between itself and the aggregate's semantic level (else the aggregate would've been assigned to that lower level instead). So the correct, most efficient implementation is to treat the sub-SELECT as being a sub-select of that outer query level, not the level the aggregate syntactically appears in. Not doing so also confuses the heck out of our parameter-passing logic, as illustrated in bug report from Daniel Grace. Fortunately, we were already copying the whole Aggref expression up to the outer query level, so all that's needed is to delay SS_process_sublinks processing of the sub-SELECT until control returns to the outer level. This has been broken since we introduced spec-compliant treatment of outer aggregates in 7.4; so patch all the way back.
2009-04-24Fix some more 'variable may be used uninitialized' warnings from gcc 4.4.Tom Lane
2009-04-24Remove sslverify parameter again, replacing it with two new sslmode values:Magnus Hagander
"verify-ca" and "verify-full". Since "prefer" remains the default, this will make certificate validation off by default, which should lead to less upgrade issues.

2009-04-23varstr_cmp and any comparison function that piggybacks on it can returnHeikki Linnakangas
any negative or positive number, not just -1 or 1. Fix comment on varstr_cmp and citext test case accordingly. As pointed out by Zdenek Kotala, and buildfarm member gothic moth.
2009-04-23Change the default value of max_prepared_transactions to zero, and addTom Lane
documentation warnings against setting it nonzero unless active use of prepared transactions is intended and a suitable transaction manager has been installed. This should help to prevent the type of scenario we've seen several times now where a prepared transaction is forgotten and eventually causes severe maintenance problems (or even anti-wraparound shutdown). The only real reason we had the default be nonzero in the first place was to support regression testing of the feature. To still be able to do that, tweak pg_regress to force a nonzero value during "make check". Since we cannot force a nonzero value in "make installcheck", add a variant regression test "expected" file that shows the results that will be obtained when max_prepared_transactions is zero. Also, extend the HINT messages for transaction wraparound warnings to mention the possibility that old prepared transactions are causing the problem. All per today's discussion.

2009-04-22Use brackets in psql \df \? help.Bruce Momjian
2009-04-21Remove the long-obsolete homebrew dl*() functions for AIX, in favor of justTom Lane
using the system functions all the time. (These files are now just copies of the osf.* files.) The homebrew functions were not getting used anyway on AIX versions that have dlopen(), that is 4.3 and up, so they are not needed on any AIX that is even remotely supported by the vendor anymore. We'd have probably left them here anyway, except some questions were raised about the copyright.

2009-04-19Assorted portability fixes for Borland C, from Pavel Golub.Tom Lane
2009-04-19Rethink the idea of having plpgsql depend on parser/gram.h. Aside from theTom Lane
fact that this is breaking the MSVC build, it's probably not really a good idea to expand the dependencies of gram.h any further than the core parser; for instance the value of SCONST might depend on which bison version you'd built with. Better to expose an additional call point in parser.c, so move what I had put into pl_funcs.c into parser.c. Also PGDLLIMPORT'ify the reference to standard_conforming_strings, per buildfarm results.
2009-04-19Fix de-escaping checks so that we will reject \000 as well as other invalidlyTom Lane
encoded sequences. Per discussion of a couple of days ago.
2009-04-19Fix estimate_num_groups() to not fail on PlaceHolderVars, per report fromTom Lane
Stefan Kaltenbrunner. The most reasonable behavior (at least for the near term) seems to be to ignore the PlaceHolderVar and examine its argument instead. In support of this, change the API of pull_var_clause() to allow callers to request recursion into PlaceHolderVars. Currently estimate_num_groups() is the only customer for that behavior, but where there's one there may be others.
2009-04-19Revise plpgsql's scanner to process comments and string literals in a wayTom Lane
more nearly matching the core SQL scanner. The user-visible effects are: * Block comments (slash-star comments) now nest, as per SQL spec. * In standard_conforming_strings mode, backslash as the last character of a non-E string literal is now correctly taken as an ordinary character; formerly it was misinterpreted as escaping the ending quote. (Since the string also had to pass through the core scanner, this invariably led to syntax errors.) * Formerly, backslashes in the format string of RAISE were always treated as quoting the next character, regardless of mode. Now, they are ordinary characters with standard_conforming_strings on, while with it off, they introduce the same set of escapes as in the core SQL scanner. Also, escape_string_warning is now effective for RAISE format strings. These changes make RAISE format strings work just like any other string literal. This is implemented by copying and pasting a lot of logic from the core scanner. It would be a good idea to look into getting rid of plpgsql's scanner entirely in favor of using the core scanner. However, that involves more change than I can justify making during beta --- in particular, the core scanner would have to become re-entrant. In passing, remove the kluge that made the plpgsql scanner emit T_FUNCTION or T_TRIGGER as a made-up first token. That presumably had some value once upon a time, but now it's just useless complication for both the scanner and the grammar.
2009-04-17Bump disable_cost up from 1e8 to 1e10, per gripe from Kris Jurka.Tom Lane
2009-04-16Fix planner to restore its previous level of intelligence about pushingTom Lane
constants through full joins, as in select * from tenk1 a full join tenk1 b using (unique1) where unique1 = 42; which should generate a fairly cheap plan where we apply the constraint unique1 = 42 in each relation scan. This had been broken by my patch of 2008-06-27, which is now reverted in favor of a more invasive but hopefully less incorrect approach. That patch was meant to prevent incorrect extraction of OR'd indexclauses from OR conditions above an outer join. To do that correctly we need more information than the outerjoin_delay flag can provide, so add a nullable_relids field to RestrictInfo that records exactly which relations are nulled by outer joins that are underneath a particular qual clause. A side benefit is that we can make the test in create_or_index_quals more specific: it is now smart enough to extract an OR'd indexclause into the outer side of an outer join, even though it must not do so in the inner side. The old coding couldn't distinguish these cases so it could not do either.

2009-04-14Fix broken {xufailed} production that made HEAD fail onTom Lane
select u&42 from table-with-a-u-column; Also fix missing SET_YYLLOC() in the {dolqfailed} production that I suppose this was based on. The latter is a pre-existing bug, but the only effect is to misplace the error cursor by one token, so probably not worth backpatching.

2009-04-12Fix logic to detect conflicts or blocks involving exclusive locks in ↵Andrew Dunstan
parallel restore items. If a currently running item needs an exclusive lock on any item that the candidate items needs any sort of lock on, or vice versa, then the candidate item is not allowed to run now, and must wait till later.
2009-04-11Fix pg_dumpall so that when --clean is specified, it drops roles andTom Lane
tablespaces in an order that has some chance of working. Per a complaint from Kevin Bailey. This is a pre-existing bug, but given the lack of prior complaints I'm not sure it's worth back-patching. In most cases failure of the DROP commands wouldn't be that important anyway. In passing, fix syntax errors in dumpCreateDB()'s queries for old servers; these were apparently introduced in recent binary_upgrade patch.

2009-04-09Remove SQL-compatibility function cardinality(). It is not exactly clearTom Lane
how this ought to behave for multi-dimensional arrays. Per discussion, not having it at all seems better than having it with what might prove to be the wrong behavior. We can always add it later when we have consensus on the correct behavior.
2009-04-09Treat EOF like \n for line-counting purposes in ParseConfigFile,Tom Lane
per bug #4752. Fujii Masao
2009-04-09Fix the plpgsql memory leak exhibited in bug #4677. That leak was introducedTom Lane
by my patch of 2007-01-28 to use per-subtransaction ExprContexts/EStates: since we re-prepared any expression tree when the current subtransaction ID changed, we'd accumulate more and more leaked expression state trees in the outermost subtransaction if the same function was executed at multiple levels of subtransaction nesting. To fix, go back to the previous scheme where there was only one EState per transaction for simple plpgsql expressions. We really only need an ExprContext per subtransaction, not a whole EState, so it's possible to keep prepared expression state trees in the one EState throughout the transaction. This should be more efficient as well as not leaking memory for cases involving lots of subtransactions. The added regression test is the case that inspired the 2007-01-28 patch in the first place, just to make sure we didn't go backwards. The current memory leak complaint is unfortunately hard to test for in the regression test framework, though manual testing shows it's fixed. Although this is a pre-existing bug, I'm not back-patching because I'd like to see this method get some field testing first. Consider back-patching if it gets through 8.4beta unscathed.
2009-04-08Remove psql's ancient hack that suppressed functions taking or returningTom Lane
cstring from the output of \df. Now that the default behavior is to exclude all system functions, the de-cluttering rationale for this behavior seems pretty weak; and it was always quite confusing/unhelpful if you were actually looking for I/O functions. (Not to mention if you were looking for encoding converters or other cases that might take or return cstring.)
