2015-05-11Allow on-the-fly capture of DDL event detailsAlvaro Herrera
This feature lets user code inspect and take action on DDL events. Whenever a ddl_command_end event trigger is installed, DDL actions executed are saved to a list which can be inspected during execution of a function attached to ddl_command_end. The set-returning function pg_event_trigger_ddl_commands can be used to list actions so captured; it returns data about the type of command executed, as well as the affected object. This is sufficient for many uses of this feature. For the cases where it is not, we also provide a "command" column of a new pseudo-type pg_ddl_command, which is a pointer to a C structure that can be accessed by C code. The struct contains all the info necessary to completely inspect and even reconstruct the executed command. There is no actual deparse code here; that's expected to come later. What we have is enough infrastructure that the deparsing can be done in an external extension. The intention is that we will add some deparsing code in a later release, as an in-core extension. A new test module is included. It's probably insufficient as is, but it should be sufficient as a starting point for a more complete and future-proof approach.

2015-03-03Change many routines to return ObjectAddress rather than OIDAlvaro Herrera
The changed routines are mostly those that can be directly called by ProcessUtilitySlow; the intention is to make the affected object information more precise, in support for future event trigger changes. Originally it was envisioned that the OID of the affected object would be enough, and in most cases that is correct, but upon actually implementing the event trigger changes it turned out that ObjectAddress is more widely useful. Additionally, some command execution routines grew an output argument that's an object address which provides further info about the executed command. To wit: * for ALTER DOMAIN / ADD CONSTRAINT, it corresponds to the address of the new constraint * for ALTER OBJECT / SET SCHEMA, it corresponds to the address of the schema that originally contained the object. * for ALTER EXTENSION {ADD, DROP} OBJECT, it corresponds to the address of the object added to or dropped from the extension. There's no user-visible change in this commit, and no functional change either. Discussion: [email protected] Reviewed-By: Stephen Frost, Andres Freund

2014-01-23Make DROP IF EXISTS more consistently not failAlvaro Herrera
Some cases were still reporting errors and aborting, instead of a NOTICE that the object was being skipped. This makes it more difficult to cleanly handle pg_dump --clean, so change that to instead skip missing objects properly. Per bug #7873 reported by Dave Rolsky; apparently this affects a large number of users. Authors: Pavel Stehule and Dean Rasheed. Some tweaks by Álvaro Herrera

2013-07-02Use an MVCC snapshot, rather than SnapshotNow, for catalog scans.Robert Haas
SnapshotNow scans have the undesirable property that, in the face of concurrent updates, the scan can fail to see either the old or the new versions of the row. In many cases, we work around this by requiring DDL operations to hold AccessExclusiveLock on the object being modified; in some cases, the existing locking is inadequate and random failures occur as a result. This commit doesn't change anything related to locking, but will hopefully pave the way to allowing lock strength reductions in the future. The major issue has held us back from making this change in the past is that taking an MVCC snapshot is significantly more expensive than using a static special snapshot such as SnapshotNow. However, testing of various worst-case scenarios reveals that this problem is not severe except under fairly extreme workloads. To mitigate those problems, we avoid retaking the MVCC snapshot for each new scan; instead, we take a new snapshot only when invalidation messages have been processed. The catcache machinery already requires that invalidation messages be sent before releasing the related heavyweight lock; else other backends might rely on locally-cached data rather than scanning the catalog at all. Thus, making snapshot reuse dependent on the same guarantees shouldn't break anything that wasn't already subtly broken. Patch by me. Review by Michael Paquier and Andres Freund.

2012-12-29Adjust more backend functions to return OID rather than void.Robert Haas
This is again intended to support extensions to the event trigger functionality. This may go a bit further than we need for that purpose, but there's some value in being consistent, and the OID may be useful for other purposes also. Dimitri Fontaine
2012-12-23Adjust many backend functions to return OID rather than void.Robert Haas

2012-08-30Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera
This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.
2012-06-15Improve reporting of permission errors for array typesPeter Eisentraut
Because permissions are assigned to element types, not array types, complaining about permission denied on an array type would be misleading to users. So adjust the reporting to refer to the element type instead. In order not to duplicate the required logic in two dozen places, refactor the permission denied reporting for types a bit. pointed out by Yeb Havinga during the review of the type privilege feature

2011-12-07Create a "sort support" interface API for faster sorting.Tom Lane
This patch creates an API whereby a btree index opclass can optionally provide non-SQL-callable support functions for sorting. In the initial patch, we only use this to provide a directly-callable comparator function, which can be invoked with a bit less overhead than the traditional SQL-callable comparator. While that should be of value in itself, the real reason for doing this is to provide a datatype-extensible framework for more aggressive optimizations, as in Peter Geoghegan's recent work. Robert Haas and Tom Lane
2011-11-18Further consolidation of DROP statement handling.Robert Haas
This gets rid of an impressive amount of duplicative code, with only minimal behavior changes.

We also eliminate the historical warning about dropping a built-in function as unuseful. All operations are now performed in the same order for all object types handled by dropcmds.c.

2011-10-21Fix DROP OPERATOR FAMILY IF EXISTS.Robert Haas

2011-07-23Rethink behavior of CREATE OR REPLACE during CREATE EXTENSION.Tom Lane
The original implementation simply did nothing when replacing an existing object during CREATE EXTENSION. The folly of this was exposed by a report from Marc Munro: if the existing object belongs to another extension, we are left in an inconsistent state. We should insist that the object does not belong to another extension, and then add it to the current extension if not already a member.

2010-11-25Object access hook framework, with post-creation hook.Robert Haas
After a SQL object is created, we provide an opportunity for security or logging plugins to get control; for example, a security label provider could use this to assign an initial security label to newly created objects. The basic infrastructure is (hopefully) reusable for other types of events that might require similar treatment. KaiGai Kohei, with minor adjustments.
2010-11-24Create the system catalog infrastructure needed for KNNGIST.Tom Lane
This commit adds columns amoppurpose and amopsortfamily to pg_amop, and column amcanorderbyop to pg_am. For the moment all the entries in amcanorderbyop are "false", since the underlying support isn't there yet. Also, extend the CREATE OPERATOR CLASS/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands with [ FOR SEARCH | FOR ORDER BY sort_operator_family ] clauses to allow the new columns of pg_amop to be populated, and create pg_dump support for dumping that information. I also added some documentation, although it's perhaps a bit premature given that the feature doesn't do anything useful yet. Teodor Sigaev, Robert Haas, Tom Lane

2010-02-14Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas
The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists, GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code shorter, too. Design and review by Tom Lane.

2008-11-02Remove all uses of the deprecated functions heap_formtuple, heap_modifytuple,Tom Lane
and heap_deformtuple in favor of the newer functions heap_form_tuple et al (which do the same things but use bool control flags instead of arbitrary char values). Eliminate the former duplicate coding of these functions, reducing the deprecated functions to mere wrappers around the newer ones. We can't get rid of them entirely because add-on modules probably still contain many instances of the old coding style. Kris Jurka
2008-06-19Improve our #include situation by moving pointer types away from theAlvaro Herrera
corresponding struct definitions. This allows other headers to avoid including certain highly-loaded headers such as rel.h and relscan.h, instead using just relcache.h, heapam.h or genam.h, which are more lightweight and thus cause less unnecessary dependencies.
2008-05-12Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera
unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.
2008-04-14Push index operator lossiness determination down to GIST/GIN opclassTom Lane
"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need 8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the index match is exact or not. Tom Lane, after an idea of Heikki's, and with some help from Teodor.
