2007-01-29Add comment noting that hashm_procid in a hash index's metapage isn'tTom Lane
actually used for anything.
2007-01-29Use sizeof() for snprintf() buffer length.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-29Update process termination message to display signal number and nameBruce Momjian
from exec.c and postmaster.c.
2007-01-28Improve hash join to discard input tuples immediately if they can'tTom Lane
match because they contain a null join key (and the join operator is known strict). Improves performance significantly when the inner relation contains a lot of nulls, as per bug #2930.
2007-01-28Remove unnecessary checkpoint from PL regression tests. This was onceTom Lane
handy to prevent core dump files from disappearing, but it's useless now because (a) we don't drop core in individual DB subdirectories anymore, and (b) CREATE DATABASE forces an internal checkpoint anyway.
2007-01-28Rename the uuid_t type to pg_uuid_t, to avoid a conflict with anyNeil Conway
definitions of uuid_t that may be provided by the system headers. This should hopefully fix the Win32 build problems reported by Magnus.
2007-01-28Fix plpython MSVC build in non-debug mode.Andrew Dunstan
2007-01-28Remove some unnecessary conversion work in build_regtype_array().Tom Lane
2007-01-28Repair oversight in creation of "append relations": we should set upTom Lane
rel->tuples as well as rel->rows, since some estimation functions expect both to be valid in every baserel. Per report from Dave Dutcher.
2007-01-28Make some small improvements in the accuracy of plpgsql's error locationTom Lane
reports; inspired by the misleading CONTEXT lines shown in recent bug report from Stefan Kaltenbrunner. Also, allow statement-type names shown in these messages to be translated.
2007-01-28Fix path problem in MSVC bison wrapper. per Joachim Wieland.Andrew Dunstan
2007-01-28Add a new builtin type, "uuid". This implements a UUID type, similar toNeil Conway
that defined in RFC 4122. This patch includes the basic implementation, plus regression tests. Documentation and perhaps some additional functionality will come later. Catversion bumped. Patch from Gevik Babakhani; review from Peter, Tom, and myself.
2007-01-28Fix up plpgsql's "simple expression" evaluation mechanism so that it behavesTom Lane
safely in the presence of subtransactions. To ensure that any ExprContext shutdown callbacks are called at the right times, we have to have a separate EState for each level of subtransaction. Per "TupleDesc reference leak" bug report from Stefan Kaltenbrunner. Although I'm convinced the code is wrong as far back as 8.0, it doesn't seem that there are any ways for the problem to really manifest before 8.2: AFAICS, 8.0 and 8.1 only use the ExprContextCallback mechanism to handle set-returning functions, which cannot usefully be executed in a "simple expression" anyway. Hence, no backpatch before 8.2 --- the risk of unforeseen breakage seems to outweigh the chance of fixing something.
2007-01-28Drat, can't fit an additional argument into log_error. Is it worth anTom Lane
sprintf pushup to be sure we can report something useful for out-of-range exitstatus?
2007-01-28Clean up broken usage of HAVE_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST and inconsistent/poorlyTom Lane
formatted error messages.
2007-01-28Use autoconf build-in sys_siglist macro AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST, rather thanBruce Momjian
create our own.
2007-01-28Add a delay at the start of the stats test, to let any prior statsTom Lane
activity quiesce. Possibly this will fix the large increase in non-reproducible stats test failures we've noted since turning on stats_row_level by default.
2007-01-28Dept of second thoughts: the IQ of estimate_array_length() needs to beTom Lane
kept on par with that of scalararraysel(), else estimates that should track might not. Hence teach it about binary-compatible cases, too.
2007-01-28Add signal.h for sys_siglist reference.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-28Fix scalararraysel() to cope with binary-compatible cases, such as text[]Tom Lane
versus varchar[]. This oversight probably explains Ryan Holmes' recent complaint --- he was getting a generic selectivity estimate instead of anything intelligent.
2007-01-28Use sys_siglist[] to print out signal names for signal exits, ratherBruce Momjian
than just numbers.
2007-01-27Correct an old logic error in btree page splitting: when considering a splitTom Lane
exactly at the point where we need to insert a new item, the calculation used the wrong size for the "high key" of the new left page. This could lead to choosing an unworkable split, resulting in "PANIC: failed to add item to the left sibling" (or "right sibling") failure. Although this bug has been there a long time, it's very difficult to trigger a failure before 8.2, since there was generally a lot of free space on both sides of a chosen split. In 8.2, where the user-selected fill factor determines how much free space the code tries to leave, an unworkable split is much more likely. Report by Joe Conway, diagnosis and fix by Heikki Linnakangas.
2007-01-27Fixed expected files, so they are in sync with tests again.Michael Meskes
2007-01-27remove unnecessary and now inaccurate cast which I should have removed with ↵Andrew Dunstan
other old code.
2007-01-27Reactivate libxml memory management via palloc, now that I think I'vePeter Eisentraut
classified the conditions under which this is safe to do (see source code comment).
2007-01-27Add trailing zero byte in Unicode codepoint conversion.Peter Eisentraut
2007-01-27Allow args to spi_prepare to be standard type aliaes as well as those known ↵Andrew Dunstan
in pg_type. Fixes bug #2917. Add some regression tests for these cases.
2007-01-26On Windows, use pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket() instead of select() to wait forTom Lane
input in the stats collector. Our select() emulation is apparently buggy for UDP sockets :-(. This should resolve problems with stats collection (and hence autovacuum) failing under more than minimal load. Diagnosis and patch by Magnus Hagander. Patch probably needs to be back-ported to 8.1 and 8.0, but first let's see if it makes the buildfarm happy...
2007-01-26Squelch some VC++ compiler warnings. Mark float literals with the "f"Neil Conway
suffix, to distinguish them from doubles. Make some function declarations and definitions use the "const" qualifier for arguments consistently. Ignore warning 4102 ("unreferenced label"), because such warnings are always emitted by bison-generated code. Patch from Magnus Hagander.
2007-01-25Update Win32 exception comment.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-25Add a setlocal command to the beginning of build.bat. This is requiredNeil Conway
to deal with buildenv.bat properly, so that PATH (for example) doesn't expand infintly. Per report from Joachim Wieland, patch from Magnus.
2007-01-25Removed compiler warning due to unneeded unsigned declaration.Michael Meskes
Removed regression test that triggers those libc precision bugs on some archs.
2007-01-25Correction: temp_tablespaces was implemented by Albert Cervera Areny,Bruce Momjian
with cleanup by Jaime Casanova.
2007-01-25Reverse out use of Py_RETURN_TRUE in plpython, only supported in Python >=Bruce Momjian
2.3.
2007-01-25Various fixes in the logic of XML functions:Peter Eisentraut
- Add new SQL command SET XML OPTION (also available via regular GUC) to control the DOCUMENT vs. CONTENT option in implicit parsing and serialization operations. - Subtle corrections in the handling of the standalone property in xmlroot(). - Allow xmlroot() to work on content fragments. - Subtle corrections in the handling of the version property in xmlconcat(). - Code refactoring for producing XML declarations.
2007-01-25Add GUC temp_tablespaces to provide a default location for temporaryBruce Momjian
objects. Jaime Casanova
2007-01-25Properly detoast access to bytea field pg_trigger.tgargs. Old codeBruce Momjian
might cause server crash. Backpatch to 8.2.X.
2007-01-25Fix for plpython functions; return true/false for boolean,Bruce Momjian
rather than 1/0. This helps when creating trigger functions that output SQL. Guido Goldstein
2007-01-25Add 'output file' option for pg_dumpall, especially useful for Win32,Bruce Momjian
where output redirection of child processes (pg_dump) doesn't work. Dave Page
2007-01-25Allow pg_dumpall to specify a database name rather than the defaultBruce Momjian
'template1'. Dave Page
2007-01-25Add --tablespaces-only and --roles-only options to pg_dumpall.Bruce Momjian
Dave Page
2007-01-25Prevent WAL logging when COPY is done in the same transation thatBruce Momjian
created it. Simon Riggs
2007-01-24When using MSVC, disable the building of ecpg if pthreads is notBruce Momjian
specified. Magnus Hagander
2007-01-24Get pg_utf_mblen(), pg_utf2wchar_with_len(), and utf2ucs() all on the sameTom Lane
page about the maximum UTF8 sequence length we support (4 bytes since 8.1, 3 before that). pg_utf2wchar_with_len never got updated to support 4-byte characters at all, and in any case had a buffer-overrun risk in that it could produce multiple pg_wchars from what mblen claims to be just one UTF8 character. The only reason we don't have a major security hole is that most callers allocate worst-case output buffers; the sole exception in released versions appears to be pre-8.2 iwchareq() (ie, ILIKE), which can be crashed due to zeroing out its return address --- but AFAICS that can't be exploited for anything more than a crash, due to inability to control what gets written there. Per report from James Russell and Michael Fuhr. Pre-8.1 the risk is much less, but I still think pg_utf2wchar_with_len's behavior given an incomplete final character risks buffer overrun, so back-patch that logic change anyway. This patch also makes sure that UTF8 sequences exceeding the supported length (whichever it is) are consistently treated as error cases, rather than being treated like a valid shorter sequence in some places.
2007-01-24Relax an Assert() that has been found to be too strict in some situationsTom Lane
involving unions of types having typmods. Variants of the failure are known to occur in 8.1 and up; not sure if it's possible in 8.0 and 7.4, but since the code exists that far back, I'll just patch 'em all. Per report from Brian Hurt.
2007-01-23Simplify handling of XML error messages: Just use the string provided byPeter Eisentraut
libxml as the detail message. As per <http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-12/msg01087.php>. For converting error codes to messages, we only need to cover those codes that we raise ourselves now.
2007-01-23Update pg_dump to support dumping operator families.Tom Lane
2007-01-23Add comment about exception lists in both winnt.h and ntstatus.h.Bruce Momjian
2007-01-23This patch is required for vcbuild to work after the changes toAlvaro Herrera
pg_proc.h (it's the same changes that's in gen_fmgrtab.sh in the unix build). Patch from Magnus Hagander.
2007-01-23Add CREATE/ALTER/DROP OPERATOR FAMILY commands, also COMMENT ON OPERATORTom Lane
FAMILY; and add FAMILY option to CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to allow adding a class to a pre-existing family. Per previous discussion. Man, what a tedious lot of cutting and pasting ...
