2009-06-17ExecAgg() failed to finish running out set-returning functions in the lastTom Lane
aggregated tuple of a run. Per report from Laurenz Albe. This is a new bug in 8.4, but only because prior versions rejected SRFs in an Agg plan node altogether.
2009-06-17Fix typo in error message: tgargv -> tg_argvPeter Eisentraut
2009-06-14Change test tables in copy2 regression test to be temporary tables.Tom Lane
This prevents autovacuum from reclaiming free space in them and causing the test's output row order to change, which is causing intermittent bogus failure reports in the buildfarm. Backpatch to 8.3. The issue exists further back, but since autovacuum was not on by default before 8.3, it's not a problem for buildfarm testing.
2009-06-13Fix get_sort_group_operators() so that it doesn't think arrays can be groupedTom Lane
via hashing. Eventually we ought to make that possible, but it won't happen for 8.4. Per yesterday's report from Robert Haas.
2009-06-13Tweak the display of incoming foreign-key constraints in \d, per discussionPeter Eisentraut
on hackers. Also, take that string out of the translation roster, since it's now entirely pseudo-SQL.
2009-06-12Fix several places where a function was declared static and then definedTom Lane
without static. Per testing with a compiler that complains about this.

2009-06-11Revisit AlterTableCreateToastTable's API once again, hoping to make it whatTom Lane
pg_migrator actually needs and not just a partial solution. We have to be able to specify the OID that the new toast table should be created with.
2009-06-11Remove our inadequate kluge that tried to get AIX's various broken versionsTom Lane
of getaddrinfo() to work. Instead, recommend updating the OS to get a working version of getaddrinfo. Per recent discussions.
2009-06-11Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2009i: DST law changes inTom Lane
Bangladesh, Egypt, Jordan, Pakistan.
2009-06-11Fix things so that you can still do "select foo()" where foo is a SQLTom Lane
function returning setof record. This used to work, more or less accidentally, but I had broken it while extending the code to allow materialize-mode functions to be called in select lists. Add a regression test case so it doesn't get broken again. Per gripe from Greg Davidson.
2009-06-11Somebody seems to have thought they could get away without checking forTom Lane
rsinfo->expectedDesc == NULL in deflist_to_tuplestore(), but that doesn't look very safe to me. Noted in passing while studying problem report from Greg Davidson.

2009-06-10Translation updatesPeter Eisentraut

2009-06-10Clarify to the translator that plpgsql_yyerror() deals with the translationPeter Eisentraut
of "syntax error", not the literal string. This same change was made in the backend a while ago; but it applies to plpgsql as well.

2009-06-10Improve capitalization and punctuation in recently added GiST message.Peter Eisentraut
2009-06-10Keep rs_startblock the same during heap_rescan, so that a rescan of a SeqScanTom Lane
node starts from the same place as the first scan did. This avoids surprising behavior of scrollable and WITH HOLD cursors, as seen in Mark Kirkwood's bug report of yesterday. It's not entirely clear whether a rescan should be forced to drop out of the syncscan mode, but for the moment I left the code behaving the same on that point. Any change there would only be a performance and not a correctness issue, anyway. Back-patch to 8.3, since the unstable behavior was created by the syncscan patch.
2009-06-10Fix cash_in() to behave properly in locales where frac_digits is zero,Tom Lane
eg Japan. Report and fix by Itagaki Takahiro. Also fix CASHDEBUG printout format for branches with 64-bit money type, and some minor comment cleanup. Back-patch to 7.4, because it's broken all the way back.
2009-06-10Fix Linux typedef code.Bruce Momjian
2009-06-10Correct/improve the datetime_precision field in the information schema.Peter Eisentraut
In particular, always show 0 for the date type instead of null, and show 6 (the default) for time, timestamp, and interval without a declared precision. This is now in fuller conformance with the SQL standard. Also clarify the documentation about this. discovered and analyzed by Konstantin Izmailov and Tom Lane
2009-06-10Make handling of INTERVAL DAY TO MINUTE and INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND inputTom Lane
more consistent with other cases, by having an unlabeled integer field be treated as a number of minutes or seconds respectively. These cases are outside the spec (which insists on full "dd hh:mm" or "dd hh:mm:ss" input respectively), so it's not much help to us in deciding what to do. But with this change, it's uniformly the case that an unlabeled integer will be considered as being a number of the interval's rightmost field. The change also takes us back to the 8.3 behavior of throwing error for certain ambiguous inputs such as INTERVAL '1 2' DAY TO MINUTE. Per recent discussion.
2009-06-10Ensure xmlFree(NULL) is a no-op instead of a core dump. Per report fromTom Lane
Sergey Burladyan, there are at least some dank corners of libxml2 that assume this behavior, even though their published documentation suggests they shouldn't. This is only really a live problem in 8.3, but the code is still there for possible debugging use in HEAD, so patch both branches.

2009-06-09Fix xmlattribute escaping XML special characters twice (bug #4822).Peter Eisentraut
Author: Itagaki Takahiro <itagaki.takahiro@oss.ntt.co.jp>
2009-06-09Mark internal_in as not strict, so that the construct "null::internal"Tom Lane
will throw an error, rather than possibly allowing someone to synthesize a manual call to an internal-accepting function. As of CVS HEAD and existing releases, all such functions are either STRICT or careful about null inputs, so there is no current security issue here. But it seems like a good idea to lock this down to protect against future mistakes. In passing, similarly lock down trigger_in, language_handler_in, opaque_in, and shell_in. These are not believed to present any security risk, but there's still no good reason to allow nulls of these types to be created. I left the polymorphic pseudotypes (anyelement etc) alone, since a null of one of those types doesn't seem to be a problem --- the worst you can say about it is that it doesn't have an underlying non-polymorphic type. If we were to make this change during normal development, we'd just automatically bump catversion for a pg_proc.h change. But since this doesn't create a compatibility risk and isn't believed to be fixing a live bug, it seems better not to force a catversion bump in late beta.
2009-06-09Fix typo, per TomAlvaro Herrera
2009-06-09Switch order of tests to avoid possible Assert failure forTom Lane
"array_agg_finalfn(null)". We should modify pg_proc entries to prevent this query from being accepted, but let's just make the function itself secure too. Per my note of today.
2009-06-09Dynamically set a lower bound on autovacuum nap time so that we don't rebuildAlvaro Herrera
the database list too often. Per bug report from Łukasz Jagiełło and ensuing discussion on pgsql-performance.
2009-06-09Fix failure to double-quote function argument names when needed, inTom Lane
pg_get_function_arguments() and related functions. Per report from Andreas Nolte.
2009-06-08Fix map_sql_table_to_xmlschema() with dropped attributes.Peter Eisentraut
also backpatched to 8.3
2009-06-06Improve the IndexVacuumInfo/IndexBulkDeleteResult API to allow somewhat saneTom Lane
behavior in cases where we don't know the heap tuple count accurately; in particular partial vacuum, but this also makes the API a bit more useful for ANALYZE. This patch adds "estimated_count" flags to both structs so that an approximate count can be flagged as such, and adjusts the logic so that approximate counts are not used for updating pg_class.reltuples. This fixes my previous complaint that VACUUM was putting ridiculous values into pg_class.reltuples for indexes. The actual impact of that bug is limited, because the planner only pays attention to reltuples for an index if the index is partial; which probably explains why beta testers hadn't noticed a degradation in plan quality from it. But it needs to be fixed. The whole thing is a bit messy and should be redesigned in future, because reltuples now has the potential to drift quite far away from reality when a long period elapses with no non-partial vacuums. But this is as good as it's going to get for 8.4.
2009-06-06Move variable declaration to avoid 'unused variable' warning when theTom Lane
ifdef doesn't trigger. Not worth back-patching. Per buildfarm reports.
2009-06-06Fix a serious bug introduced into GIN in 8.4: now that MergeItemPointers()Tom Lane
is supposed to remove duplicate heap TIDs, we have to be sure to reduce the tuple size and posting-item count accordingly in addItemPointersToTuple(). Failing to do so resulted in the effective injection of garbage TIDs into the index contents, ie, whatever happened to be in the memory palloc'd for the new tuple. I'm not sure that this fully explains the index corruption reported by Tatsuo Ishii, but the test case I'm using no longer fails.
2009-06-05Adjust recent PERL_SYS_INIT3 call to avoid platforms where it might fail, ↵Andrew Dunstan
and to remove compilation warning. Backpatch the release 7.4
2009-06-05GIN's ItemPointerIsMin, ItemPointerIsMax, and ItemPointerIsLossyPage macrosTom Lane
should use GinItemPointerGetBlockNumber/GinItemPointerGetOffsetNumber, not ItemPointerGetBlockNumber/ItemPointerGetOffsetNumber, because the latter will Assert() on ip_posid == 0, ie a "Min" pointer. (Thus, ItemPointerIsMin has never worked at all, but it seems unused at present.) I'm not certain that the case can occur in normal functioning, but it's blowing up on me while investigating Tatsuo-san's data corruption problem. In any case it seems like a problem waiting to bite someone. Back-patch just in case this really is a problem for somebody in the field.
2009-06-05Search for versioned perl library instead of using hardcoded name on ↵Andrew Dunstan
Windows. Backpatch to release 8.3
2009-06-04Trivial code style cleanup around a couple of ngettext calls.Tom Lane
2009-06-04Remove a couple of debugging messages that have been #ifdef'd out for ages.Tom Lane
Seems silly to ask translators to expend work on these, especially in pluralized variants.
2009-06-04Improve the recently-added support for properly pluralized error messagesTom Lane
by extending the ereport() API to cater for pluralization directly. This is better than the original method of calling ngettext outside the elog.c code because (1) it avoids double translation, which wastes cycles and in the worst case could give a wrong result; and (2) it avoids having to use a different coding method in PL code than in the core backend. The client-side uses of ngettext are not touched since neither of these concerns is very pressing in the client environment. Per my proposal of yesterday.
2009-06-04Initialise perl library as documented in perl API. Backpatch to release 7.4.Andrew Dunstan
2009-06-03Clean up ecpg's use of mmerror(): const-ify the format argument, add anTom Lane
__attribute__() marker so that gcc can validate the format string against the actual arguments, get rid of overcomplicated and unsafe usage in base_yyerror().
2009-06-03Fix tsquerysel() to not fail on an empty TSQuery. Per report fromTom Lane
Tatsuo Ishii.
