2013-01-22Add infrastructure for storing a VARIADIC ANY function's VARIADIC flag.Tom Lane
Originally we didn't bother to mark FuncExprs with any indication whether VARIADIC had been given in the source text, because there didn't seem to be any need for it at runtime. However, because we cannot fold a VARIADIC ANY function's arguments into an array (since they're not necessarily all the same type), we do actually need that information at runtime if VARIADIC ANY functions are to respond unsurprisingly to use of the VARIADIC keyword. Add the missing field, and also fix ruleutils.c so that VARIADIC ANY function calls are dumped properly. Extracted from a larger patch that also fixes concat() and format() (the only two extant VARIADIC ANY functions) to behave properly when VARIADIC is specified. This portion seems appropriate to review and commit separately. Pavel Stehule

2011-04-12Pass collations to functions in FunctionCallInfoData, not FmgrInfo.Tom Lane
Since collation is effectively an argument, not a property of the function, FmgrInfo is really the wrong place for it; and this becomes critical in cases where a cached FmgrInfo is used for varying purposes that might need different collation settings. Fix by passing it in FunctionCallInfoData instead. In particular this allows a clean fix for bug #5970 (record_cmp not working). This requires touching a bit more code than the original method, but nobody ever thought that collations would not be an invasive patch...

2011-03-20Revise collation derivation method and expression-tree representation.Tom Lane
All expression nodes now have an explicit output-collation field, unless they are known to only return a noncollatable data type (such as boolean or record). Also, nodes that can invoke collation-aware functions store a separate field that is the collation value to pass to the function. This avoids confusion that arises when a function has collatable inputs and noncollatable output type, or vice versa. Also, replace the parser's on-the-fly collation assignment method with a post-pass over the completed expression tree. This allows us to use a more complex (and hopefully more nearly spec-compliant) assignment rule without paying for it in extra storage in every expression node. Fix assorted bugs in the planner's handling of collations by making collation one of the defining properties of an EquivalenceClass and by converting CollateExprs into discardable RelabelType nodes during expression preprocessing.
2011-02-20Implement an API to let foreign-data wrappers actually be functional.Tom Lane

2010-12-27Fix ill-chosen use of "private" as an argument and struct field name.Tom Lane
"private" is a keyword in C++, so this breaks the poorly-enforced policy that header files should be include-able in C++ code. Per report from Craig Ringer and some investigation with cpluspluscheck.

2010-02-08Create an official API function for C functions to use to check if they areTom Lane
being called as aggregates, and to get the aggregate transition state memory context if needed. Use it instead of poking directly into AggState and WindowAggState in places that shouldn't know so much. We should have done this in 8.4, probably, but better late than never. Revised version of a patch by Hitoshi Harada.

2008-05-15Add support for tracking call counts and elapsed runtime for user-definedTom Lane
functions. Note that because this patch changes FmgrInfo, any external C functions you might be testing with 8.4 will need to be recompiled. Patch by Martin Pihlak, some editorialization by me (principally, removing tracking of getrusage() numbers)
2008-04-21Allow float8, int8, and related datatypes to be passed by value on machinesTom Lane
where Datum is 8 bytes wide. Since this will break old-style C functions (those still using version 0 calling convention) that have arguments or results of these types, provide a configure option to disable it and retain the old pass-by-reference behavior. Likewise, provide a configure option to disable the recently-committed float4 pass-by-value change. Zoltan Boszormenyi, plus configurability stuff by me.

2007-04-06Support varlena fields with single-byte headers and unaligned storage.Tom Lane
This commit breaks any code that assumes that the mere act of forming a tuple (without writing it to disk) does not "toast" any fields. While all available regression tests pass, I'm not totally sure that we've fixed every nook and cranny, especially in contrib. Greg Stark with some help from Tom Lane

2006-08-16Seems some C compilers think 'restrict' is a fully reserved word.Tom Lane
Per buildfarm results from warthog.
2006-08-15Add server support for "plugin" libraries that can be used for add-on tasksTom Lane
such as debugging and performance measurement. This consists of two features: a table of "rendezvous variables" that allows separately-loaded shared libraries to communicate, and a new GUC setting "local_preload_libraries" that allows libraries to be loaded into specific sessions without explicit cooperation from the client application. To make local_preload_libraries as flexible as possible, we do not restrict its use to superusers; instead, it is restricted to load only libraries stored in $libdir/plugins/. The existing LOAD command has also been modified to allow non-superusers to LOAD libraries stored in this directory. This patch also renames the existing GUC variable preload_libraries to shared_preload_libraries (after a suggestion by Simon Riggs) and does some code refactoring in dfmgr.c to improve clarity. Korry Douglas, with a little help from Tom Lane.
2006-05-31Make PG_MODULE_MAGIC required in shared libraries that are loaded intoTom Lane
the server. Per discussion, there seems no point in a waiting period before making this required.
2006-05-30Code review for magic-block patch. Remove separate header file pgmagic.h,Tom Lane
as this seems only likely to create headaches for module developers. Put the macro in the pre-existing fmgr.h file instead. Avoid being too cute about how many fields we can cram into a word, and avoid trying to fetch from a library we've already unlinked. Along the way, it occurred to me that the magic block really ought to be 'const' so it can be stored in the program text area. Do the same for the existing data blocks for PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 functions.
2006-04-04Modify all callers of datatype input and receive functions so that if theseTom Lane
functions are not strict, they will be called (passing a NULL first parameter) during any attempt to input a NULL value of their datatype. Currently, all our input functions are strict and so this commit does not change any behavior. However, this will make it possible to build domain input functions that centralize checking of domain constraints, thereby closing numerous holes in our domain support, as per previous discussion. While at it, I took the opportunity to introduce convenience functions InputFunctionCall, OutputFunctionCall, etc to use in code that calls I/O functions. This eliminates a lot of grotty-looking casts, but the main motivation is to make it easier to grep for these places if we ever need to touch them again.

2004-04-01Replace TupleTableSlot convention for whole-row variables and functionTom Lane
results with tuples as ordinary varlena Datums. This commit does not in itself do much for us, except eliminate the horrid memory leak associated with evaluation of whole-row variables. However, it lays the groundwork for allowing composite types as table columns, and perhaps some other useful features as well. Per my proposal of a few days ago.
2004-01-19Add a hash table to cache lookups of 'C'-language functions (that is,Tom Lane
dynamically loaded C functions). Some limited testing suggests that this puts the lookup speed for external functions just about on par with built-in functions. Per discussion with Eric Ridge.
