2011-03-03Further refine patch for commenting operator implementation functions.Tom Lane
Instead of manually maintaining the "implementation of XXX operator" comments in pg_proc.h, delete all those entries and let initdb create them via a join. To let initdb figure out which name to use when there is a conflict, change the comments for deprecated operators to say they are deprecated --- which seems like a good thing to do anyway.
2011-03-03Run a portal's cleanup hook immediately when pushing it to DONE state.Tom Lane
This works around the problem noted by Yamamoto Takashi in bug #5906, that there were code paths whereby we could reach AtCleanup_Portals with a portal's cleanup hook still unexecuted. The changes I made a few days ago were intended to prevent that from happening, and I think that on balance it's still a good thing to avoid, so I don't want to remove the Assert in AtCleanup_Portals. Hence do this instead.

2011-03-03Mark operator implementation functions as such in their comments.Tom Lane
Historically, we've not had separate comments for built-in pg_operator entries, but relied on the comments for the underlying functions. The trouble with this approach is that there isn't much of anything to suggest to users that they'd be better off using the operators instead. So, move all the relevant comments into pg_operator, and give each underlying function a comment that just says "implementation of XXX operator". There are only about half a dozen cases where it seems reasonable to use the underlying function interchangeably with the operator; in these cases I left the same comment in place on the function as on the operator. While at it, establish a policy that every built-in function and operator entry should have a comment: there are now queries in the opr_sanity regression test that will complain if one doesn't. This only required adding a dozen or two more entries than would have been there anyway. I also spent some time trying to eliminate gratuitous inconsistencies in the style of the comments, though it's hopeless to suppose that more won't creep in soon enough. Per my proposal of 2010-10-15.

2011-03-01Fix plpython breakage detected on certain Fedora machines on buildfarm.Andrew Dunstan
Patch from Jan Urbański.
2011-03-01Additional PL/Python regression test expected filePeter Eisentraut
plpython_subtransaction test needs a separate expected file specifically for Python 2.5.
2011-03-01Change pg_last_xlog_receive_location() not to move backwards. That makesHeikki Linnakangas
it a lot more useful for determining which standby is most up-to-date, for example. There was long discussions on whether overwriting existing existing WAL makes sense to begin with, and whether we should do some more extensive variable renaming, but this change nevertheless seems quite uncontroversial. Fujii Masao, reviewed by Jeff Janes, Robert Haas, Stephen Frost.
2011-03-01Fix bugs in Serializable Snapshot Isolation.Heikki Linnakangas
Change the way UPDATEs are handled. Instead of maintaining a chain of tuple-level locks in shared memory, copy any existing locks on the old tuple to the new tuple at UPDATE. Any existing page-level lock needs to be duplicated too, as a lock on the new tuple. That was neglected previously. Store xmin on tuple-level predicate locks, to distinguish a lock on an old already-recycled tuple from a new tuple at the same physical location. Failure to distinguish them caused loops in the tuple-lock chains, as reported by YAMAMOTO Takashi. Although we don't use the chain representation of UPDATEs anymore, it seems like a good idea to store the xmin to avoid some false positives if no other reason. CheckSingleTargetForConflictsIn now correctly handles the case where a lock that's being held is not reflected in the local lock table. That happens if another backend acquires a lock on our behalf due to an UPDATE or a page split. PredicateLockPageCombine now retains locks for the page that is being removed, rather than removing them. This prevents a potentially dangerous false-positive inconsistency where the local lock table believes that a lock is held, but it is actually not. Dan Ports and Kevin Grittner
2011-03-01Dump the COLLATABLE attribute in CREATE TYPEPeter Eisentraut
This was previously omitted by accident.
2011-03-01Include the target table in EXPLAIN output for ModifyTable nodes.Tom Lane
Per discussion, this seems important for plans involving writable CTEs, since there can now be more than one ModifyTable node in the plan. To retain the same formatting as for target tables of scan nodes, we show only one target table, which will be the parent table in case of an UPDATE or DELETE on an inheritance tree. Individual child tables can be determined by inspecting the child plan trees if needed.
2011-03-01Avoid excessive Hot Standby feedback messages.Robert Haas
Without this patch, when wal_receiver_status_interval=0, indicating that no status messages should be sent, Hot Standby feedback messages are instead sent extremely frequently. Fujii Masao, with documentation changes by me.
2011-02-28Rearrange snapshot handling to make rule expansion more consistent.Tom Lane
With this patch, portals, SQL functions, and SPI all agree that there should be only a CommandCounterIncrement between the queries that are generated from a single SQL command by rule expansion. Fetching a whole new snapshot now happens only between original queries. This is equivalent to the existing behavior of EXPLAIN ANALYZE, and it was judged to be the best choice since it eliminates one source of concurrency hazards for rules. The patch should also make things marginally faster by reducing the number of snapshot push/pop operations. The patch removes pg_parse_and_rewrite(), which is no longer used anywhere. There was considerable discussion about more aggressive refactoring of the query-processing functions exported by postgres.c, but for the moment nothing more has been done there. I also took the opportunity to refactor snapmgr.c's API slightly: the former PushUpdatedSnapshot() has been split into two functions. Marko Tiikkaja, reviewed by Steve Singer and Tom Lane

Adds a context manager, obtainable by plpy.subtransaction(), to run a group of statements in a subtransaction. Jan Urbański, reviewed by Steve Singer, additional scribbling by me
2011-02-27Remove remaining expected file for Python 2.2Peter Eisentraut
We don't have complete expected coverage for Python 2.2 anyway, so it doesn't seem worth keeping this one around that no one appears to be updating anyway. Visual inspection of the differences ought to be good enough for those few who care about this obsolete Python version.
2011-02-27Refactor the executor's API to support data-modifying CTEs better.Tom Lane
The originally committed patch for modifying CTEs didn't interact well with EXPLAIN, as noted by myself, and also had corner-case problems with triggers, as noted by Dean Rasheed. Those problems show it is really not practical for ExecutorEnd to call any user-defined code; so split the cleanup duties out into a new function ExecutorFinish, which must be called between the last ExecutorRun call and ExecutorEnd. Some Asserts have been added to these functions to help verify correct usage. It is no longer necessary for callers of the executor to call AfterTriggerBeginQuery/AfterTriggerEndQuery for themselves, as this is now done by ExecutorStart/ExecutorFinish respectively. If you really need to suppress that and do it for yourself, pass EXEC_FLAG_SKIP_TRIGGERS to ExecutorStart. Also, refactor portal commit processing to allow for the possibility that PortalDrop will invoke user-defined code. I think this is not actually necessary just yet, since the portal-execution-strategy logic forces any non-pure-SELECT query to be run to completion before we will consider committing. But it seems like good future-proofing.

2011-02-25Fix order of shutdown processing when CTEs contain inter-references.Tom Lane
We need ExecutorEnd to run the ModifyTable nodes to completion in reverse order of initialization, not forward order. Easily done by constructing the list back-to-front.
2011-02-25Support data-modifying commands (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE) in WITH.Tom Lane
This patch implements data-modifying WITH queries according to the semantics that the updates all happen with the same command counter value, and in an unspecified order. Therefore one WITH clause can't see the effects of another, nor can the outer query see the effects other than through the RETURNING values. And attempts to do conflicting updates will have unpredictable results. We'll need to document all that. This commit just fixes the code; documentation updates are waiting on author. Marko Tiikkaja and Hitoshi Harada

2011-02-22Add a relkind field to RangeTblEntry to avoid some syscache lookups.Tom Lane
The recent additions for FDW support required checking foreign-table-ness in several places in the parse/plan chain. While it's not clear whether that would really result in a noticeable slowdown, it seems best to avoid any performance risk by keeping a copy of the relation's relkind in RangeTblEntry. That might have some other uses later, anyway. Per discussion.
2011-02-22Add PL/Python functions for quoting stringsPeter Eisentraut
Add functions plpy.quote_ident, plpy.quote_literal, plpy.quote_nullable, which wrap the equivalent SQL functions. To be able to propagate char * constness properly, make the argument of quote_literal_cstr() const char *. This also makes it more consistent with quote_identifier(). Jan Urbański, reviewed by Hitoshi Harada, some refinements by Peter Eisentraut
2011-02-22Fix a couple of unlogged tables goofs.Robert Haas
"SELECT ... INTO UNLOGGED tabname" works, but wasn't documented; CREATE UNLOGGED SEQUENCE and CREATE UNLOGGED VIEW failed an assertion, instead of throwing a sensible error. Latter issue reported by Itagaki Takahiro; patch review by Tom Lane.
2011-02-22Allow binary I/O of type "void".Tom Lane
void_send is useful for the same reason that void_out doesn't throw error, namely that someone might do "select void_returning_func(...)" from a client that prefers to operate in binary mode. The void_recv function may or may not have any practical use, but we provide it for symmetry. Radosław Smogura
2011-02-21Remove ExecRemoveJunk(), which is no longer used anywhere.Tom Lane
This was a leftover from the pre-8.1 design of junkfilters. It doesn't seem to have any reason to live, since it's merely a combination of two easy function calls, and not a well-designed combination at that (it encourages callers to leak the result tuple).
2011-02-21Fix dangling-pointer problem in before-row update trigger processing.Tom Lane
ExecUpdate checked for whether ExecBRUpdateTriggers had returned a new tuple value by seeing if the returned tuple was pointer-equal to the old one. But the "old one" was in estate->es_junkFilter's result slot, which would be scribbled on if we had done an EvalPlanQual update in response to a concurrent update of the target tuple; therefore we were comparing a dangling pointer to a live one. Given the right set of circumstances we could get a false match, resulting in not forcing the tuple to be stored in the slot we thought it was stored in. In the case reported by Maxim Boguk in bug #5798, this led to "cannot extract system attribute from virtual tuple" failures when trying to do "RETURNING ctid". I believe there is a very-low-probability chance of more serious errors, such as generating incorrect index entries based on the original rather than the trigger-modified version of the row. In HEAD, change all of ExecBRInsertTriggers, ExecIRInsertTriggers, ExecBRUpdateTriggers, and ExecIRUpdateTriggers so that they continue to have similar APIs. In the back branches I just changed ExecBRUpdateTriggers, since there is no bug in the ExecBRInsertTriggers case.
2011-02-21Fix pg_server_to_client, that was broken in the previous commit.Itagaki Takahiro
2011-02-21Add ENCODING option to COPY TO/FROM and file_fdw.Itagaki Takahiro
File encodings can be specified separately from client encoding. If not specified, client encoding is used for backward compatibility. Cases when the encoding doesn't match client encoding are slower than matched cases because we don't have conversion procs for other encodings. Performance improvement would be be a future work. Original patch by Hitoshi Harada, and modified by me.
2011-02-20Add contrib/file_fdw foreign-data wrapper for reading files via COPY.Tom Lane
This is both very useful in its own right, and an important test case for the core FDW support. This commit includes a small refactoring of copy.c to expose its option checking code as a separately callable function. The original patch submission duplicated hundreds of lines of that code, which seemed pretty unmaintainable. Shigeru Hanada, reviewed by Itagaki Takahiro and Tom Lane
2011-02-20Implement an API to let foreign-data wrappers actually be functional.Tom Lane

2011-02-19Set psql client encoding from locale by defaultPeter Eisentraut
Add a new libpq connection option client_encoding (which includes the existing PGCLIENTENCODING environment variable), which besides an encoding name accepts a special value "auto" that tries to determine the encoding from the locale in the client's environment, using the mechanisms that have been in use in initdb. psql sets this new connection option to "auto" when running from a terminal and not overridden by setting PGCLIENTENCODING. original code by Heikki Linnakangas, with subsequent contributions by Jaime Casanova, Peter Eisentraut, Stephen Frost, Ibrar Ahmed
2011-02-19Create the catalog infrastructure for foreign-data-wrapper handlers.Tom Lane
Add a fdwhandler column to pg_foreign_data_wrapper, plus HANDLER options in the CREATE FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER and ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER commands, plus pg_dump support for same. Also invent a new pseudotype fdw_handler with properties similar to language_handler. This is split out of the "FDW API" patch for ease of review; it's all stuff we will certainly need, regardless of any other details of the FDW API. FDW handler functions will not actually get called yet. In passing, fix some omissions and infelicities in foreigncmds.c. Shigeru Hanada, Jan Urbanski, Heikki Linnakangas

2011-02-18Fix parallel pg_restore to handle comments on POST_DATA items correctly.Tom Lane
The previous coding would try to process all SECTION_NONE items in the initial sequential-restore pass, which failed if they were dependencies of not-yet-restored items. Fix by postponing such items into the parallel processing pass once we have skipped any non-PRE_DATA item. Back-patch into 9.0; the original parallel-restore coding in 8.4 did not have this bug, so no need to change it. Report and diagnosis by Arnd Hannemann.
