2002-12-05Phase 1 of read-only-plans project: cause executor state nodes to pointTom Lane
to plan nodes, not vice-versa. All executor state nodes now inherit from struct PlanState. Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links). The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway. No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.
2002-11-30Code review for IS DISTINCT FROM patch. Fix incorrect constant-foldingTom Lane
logic, dissuade planner from thinking that 'x IS DISTINCT FROM 42' may be optimized into 'x = 42' (!!), cause dependency on = operator to be recorded correctly, minor other improvements.
2002-11-30Be more realistic about plans involving Materialize nodes: take theirTom Lane
cost into account while planning.
2002-11-30Upgrade planner and executor to allow multiple hash keys for a hash join,Tom Lane
instead of only one. This should speed up planning (only one hash path to consider for a given pair of relations) as well as allow more effective hashing, when there are multiple hashable joinclauses.
2002-11-27Improve some comments.Tom Lane
2002-11-26Use Params, rather than run-time-modified Const nodes, to handleTom Lane
sublink results and COPY's domain constraint checking. A Const that isn't really constant is just a Bad Idea(tm). Remove hacks in parse_coerce and other places that were needed because of the former klugery.
2002-11-25Remove unused constisset and constiscast fields of Const nodes. CleanTom Lane
up code and documentation associated with Param nodes.
2002-11-25Restructure outfuncs and readfuncs to use macros in the same style asTom Lane
just done for copyfuncs/equalfuncs. Read functions in particular get a lot shorter than before, and it's much easier to compare an out function with the corresponding read function to make sure they agree. initdb forced due to small changes in nodestring format (regularizing a few cases that were formerly idiosyncratic).
2002-11-25Un-break triggers declared for INSERT OR DELETE OR UPDATE. This workedTom Lane
okay in 7.3, so I think it must have been busted in the recent triggers patch.
2002-11-24Restructure planning of nestloop inner indexscans so that the set of usableTom Lane
joinclauses is determined accurately for each join. Formerly, the code only considered joinclauses that used all of the rels from the outer side of the join; thus for example FROM (a CROSS JOIN b) JOIN c ON (c.f1 = a.x AND c.f2 = b.y) could not exploit a two-column index on c(f1,f2), since neither of the qual clauses would be in the joininfo list it looked in. The new code does this correctly, and also is able to eliminate redundant clauses, thus fixing the problem noted 24-Oct-02 by Hans-Jürgen Schönig.
2002-11-23This patch implements FOR EACH STATEMENT triggers, per my email toBruce Momjian
-hackers a couple days ago. Notes/caveats: - added regression tests for the new functionality, all regression tests pass on my machine - added pg_dump support - updated PL/PgSQL to support per-statement triggers; didn't look at the other procedural languages. - there's (even) more code duplication in trigger.c than there was previously. Any suggestions on how to refactor the ExecXXXTriggers() functions to reuse more code would be welcome -- I took a brief look at it, but couldn't see an easy way to do it (there are several subtly-different versions of the code in question) - updated the documentation. I also took the liberty of removing a big chunk of duplicated syntax documentation in the Programmer's Guide on triggers, and moving that information to the CREATE TRIGGER reference page. - I also included some spelling fixes and similar small cleanups I noticed while making the changes. If you'd like me to split those into a separate patch, let me know. Neil Conway
2002-11-22Redesign internal logic of nodeLimit so that it does not need to fetchTom Lane
one more row from the subplan than the COUNT would appear to require. This costs a little more logic but a number of people have complained about the old implementation.
2002-11-19Add an at-least-marginally-plausible method of estimating the numberTom Lane
of groups produced by GROUP BY. This improves the accuracy of planning estimates for grouped subselects, and is needed to check whether a hashed aggregation plan risks memory overflow.
2002-11-15New version attached. The following is implemented:Bruce Momjian
- CLUSTER ALL clusters all the tables that have some index with indisclustered set and the calling user owns. - CLUSTER tablename clusters the named table, using the index with indisclustered set. If no index has the bit set, throws elog(ERROR). - The multi-relation version (CLUSTER ALL) uses a multitransaction approach, similar to what VACUUM does. Alvaro Herrera
2002-11-15Add DOMAIN check constraints.Bruce Momjian

2002-11-13Make MOVE/FETCH 0 actually move/fetch 0. Add MOVE LAST to move to endBruce Momjian
of cursor.
2002-11-11Code review for ON COMMIT patch. Make the actual on-commit action happenTom Lane
before commit, not after :-( --- the original coding is not only unsafe if an error occurs while it's processing, but it generates an invalid sequence of WAL entries. Resurrect 7.2 logic for deleting items when no longer needed. Use an enum instead of random macros. Editorialize on names used for routines and constants. Teach backend/nodes routines about new field in CreateTable struct. Add a regression test.
2002-11-10Add palloc0 function to inline MemSet for newNode call.Bruce Momjian
2002-11-09Add code to handle [ON COMMIT { PRESERVE ROWS | DELETE ROWS | DROP }]Bruce Momjian
for temp tables. Gavin Sherry
2002-11-06Phase 2 of hashed-aggregation project. nodeAgg.c now knows how to doTom Lane
hashed aggregation, but there's not yet planner support for it.
2002-11-06First phase of implementing hash-based grouping/aggregation. An AGG planTom Lane
node now does its own grouping of the input rows, and has no need for a preceding GROUP node in the plan pipeline. This allows elimination of the misnamed tuplePerGroup option for GROUP, and actually saves more code in nodeGroup.c than it costs in nodeAgg.c, as well as being presumably faster. Restructure the API of query_planner so that we do not commit to using a sorted or unsorted plan in query_planner; instead grouping_planner makes the decision. (Right now it isn't any smarter than query_planner was, but that will change as soon as it has the option to select a hash- based aggregation step.) Despite all the hackery, no initdb needed since only in-memory node types changed.
2002-10-14Adjust handling of command status strings in the presence of rules,Tom Lane
as per recent pghackers discussions. initdb forced due to change in fields of stored Query nodes.
2002-10-11Oops, back out newNode changes. We are not ready for that yet.Bruce Momjian
2002-10-11Prevent tv_sec from becoming negative in connection timeout code.Bruce Momjian
2002-09-22Replace pg_attribute.attisinherited with attislocal and attinhcountTom Lane
columns, to allow more correct behavior in multiple-inheritance cases. Patch by Alvaro Herrera, review by Tom Lane.
2002-09-18Extend pg_cast castimplicit column to a three-way value; this allows usTom Lane
to be flexible about assignment casts without introducing ambiguity in operator/function resolution. Introduce a well-defined promotion hierarchy for numeric datatypes (int2->int4->int8->numeric->float4->float8). Change make_const to initially label numeric literals as int4, int8, or numeric (never float8 anymore). Explicitly mark Func and RelabelType nodes to indicate whether they came from a function call, explicit cast, or implicit cast; use this to do reverse-listing more accurately and without so many heuristics. Explicit casts to char, varchar, bit, varbit will truncate or pad without raising an error (the pre-7.2 behavior), while assigning to a column without any explicit cast will still raise an error for wrong-length data like 7.3. This more nearly follows the SQL spec than 7.2 behavior (we should be reporting a 'completion condition' in the explicit-cast cases, but we have no mechanism for that, so just do silent truncation). Fix some problems with enforcement of typmod for array elements; it didn't work at all in 'UPDATE ... SET array[n] = foo', for example. Provide a generalized array_length_coerce() function to replace the specialized per-array-type functions that used to be needed (and were missing for NUMERIC as well as all the datetime types). Add missing conversions int8<->float4, text<->numeric, oid<->int8. initdb forced.

2002-09-02CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW, CREATE OR REPLACE RULE.Tom Lane
Gavin Sherry, Neil Conway, and Tom Lane all got their hands dirty on this one ...
2002-08-31Code review for domain-constraints patch. Use a new ConstraintTest nodeTom Lane
type for runtime constraint checks, instead of misusing the parse-time Constraint node for the purpose. Fix some damage introduced into type coercion logic; in particular ensure that a coerced expression tree will read out the correct result type when inspected (patch had broken some RelabelType cases). Enforce domain NOT NULL constraints against columns that are omitted from an INSERT.
2002-08-30Add expected tuple descriptor to ReturnSetInfo information for tableTom Lane
functions, per suggestion from John Gray and Joe Conway. Also, fix plpgsql RETURN NEXT to verify that returned values match the expected tupdesc.
2002-08-30Add attisinherited column to pg_attribute; use it to guard againstTom Lane
column additions, deletions, and renames that would let a child table get out of sync with its parent. Patch by Alvaro Herrera, with some kibitzing by Tom Lane.
2002-08-30PL/pgSQL functions can return sets. Neil Conway's patch, modified soTom Lane
that the functionality is available to anyone via ReturnSetInfo, rather than hard-wiring it to PL/pgSQL.
2002-08-29Code review for standalone composite types, query-specified compositeTom Lane
types, SRFs. Not happy with memory management yet, but I'll commit these other changes.
2002-08-27PREPARE/EXECUTE statements. Patch by Neil Conway, some kibitzingTom Lane
from Tom Lane.
2002-08-26Modify array operations to include array's element type OID in theTom Lane
array header, and to compute sizing and alignment of array elements the same way normal tuple access operations do --- viz, using the tupmacs.h macros att_addlength and att_align. This makes the world safe for arrays of cstrings or intervals, and should make it much easier to write array-type-polymorphic functions; as examples see the cleanups of array_out and contrib/array_iterator. By Joe Conway and Tom Lane.
2002-08-19Remove Ident nodetype in favor of using String nodes; this fixes someTom Lane
latent wrong-struct-type bugs and makes the coding style more uniform, since the majority of places working with lists of column names were already using Strings not Idents. While at it, remove vestigial support for Stream node type, and otherwise-unreferenced nodes.h entries for T_TupleCount and T_BaseNode. NB: full recompile is recommended due to changes of Node type numbers. This shouldn't force an initdb though.
2002-08-19Clean up leftover bugs from recent COPY feature patch --- missedTom Lane
required changes to copyfuncs/equalfuncs.
2002-08-19Improve obsolete comment.Tom Lane

A simple change, but > it passeth patch's understanding ... Thanks. Attached is a patch against cvs tip as of 8:30 PM PST or so. Turned out that even after fixing the failed hunks, there was a new spot in bufmgr.c which needed to be fixed (related to temp relations; RelationUpdateNumberOfBlocks). But thankfully the regression test code caught it :-) Joe Conway
2002-08-12Change memory-space accounting mechanism in tuplesort.c and tuplestore.cTom Lane
to make a reasonable attempt at accounting for palloc overhead, not just the requested size of each memory chunk. Since in many scenarios this will make for a significant reduction in the amount of space acquired, partially compensate by doubling the default value of SORT_MEM to 1Mb. Per discussion in pgsql-general around 9-Jun-2002..
2002-08-04Attached are two patches to implement and document anonymous compositeBruce Momjian
types for Table Functions, as previously proposed on HACKERS. Here is a brief explanation: 1. Creates a new pg_type typtype: 'p' for pseudo type (currently either 'b' for base or 'c' for catalog, i.e. a class). 2. Creates new builtin type of typtype='p' named RECORD. This is the first of potentially several pseudo types. 3. Modify FROM clause grammer to accept: SELECT * FROM my_func() AS m(colname1 type1, colname2 type1, ...) where m is the table alias, colname1, etc are the column names, and type1, etc are the column types. 4. When typtype == 'p' and the function return type is RECORD, a list of column defs is required, and when typtype != 'p', it is disallowed. 5. A check was added to ensure that the tupdesc provide via the parser and the actual return tupdesc match in number and type of attributes. When creating a function you can do: CREATE FUNCTION foo(text) RETURNS setof RECORD ... When using it you can do: SELECT * from foo(sqlstmt) AS (f1 int, f2 text, f3 timestamp) or SELECT * from foo(sqlstmt) AS f(f1 int, f2 text, f3 timestamp) or SELECT * from foo(sqlstmt) f(f1 int, f2 text, f3 timestamp) Included in the patches are adjustments to the regression test sql and expected files, and documentation. p.s. This potentially solves (or at least improves) the issue of builtin Table Functions. They can be bootstrapped as returning RECORD, and we can wrap system views around them with properly specified column defs. For example: CREATE VIEW pg_settings AS SELECT s.name, s.setting FROM show_all_settings()AS s(name text, setting text); Then we can also add the UPDATE RULE that I previously posted to pg_settings, and have pg_settings act like a virtual table, allowing settings to be queried and set. Joe Conway
2002-08-04The attached patch implements START TRANSACTION, per SQL99. TheBruce Momjian
functionality of the command is basically identical to that of BEGIN; it just accepts a few extra options (only one of which PostgreSQL currently implements), and is standards-compliant. The patch includes a simple regression test and documentation. [ Regression tests removed, per Peter.] Neil Conway
2002-07-30The attached patch removes the last remnants of support forBruce Momjian
'tioga recipes', whatever those are -- Peter E. killed most of it a couple days ago, but this patch removes the rest. Most of it was #ifdef'ed out anyway. Neil Conway
2002-07-29Implement CREATE/DROP OPERATOR CLASS. Work still remains: need moreTom Lane
documentation (xindex.sgml should be rewritten), need to teach pg_dump about it, need to update contrib modules that currently build pg_opclass entries by hand. Original patch by Bill Studenmund, grammar adjustments and general update for 7.3 by Tom Lane.
2002-07-24Remove unused system table columns:Peter Eisentraut
pg_language.lancompiler pg_operator.oprprec pg_operator.oprisleft pg_proc.proimplicit pg_proc.probyte_pct pg_proc.properbyte_cpu pg_proc.propercall_cpu pg_proc.prooutin_ratio pg_shadow.usetrace pg_type.typprtlen pg_type.typreceive pg_type.typsend Attempts to use the obsoleted attributes of pg_operator or pg_proc in the CREATE commands will be greeted by a warning. For pg_type, there is no warning (yet) because pg_dump scripts still contain these attributes. Also remove new but already obsolete spellings isVolatile, isStable, isImmutable in WITH clause. (Use new syntax instead.)
2002-07-18pg_cast table, and standards-compliant CREATE/DROP CAST commands, plusPeter Eisentraut
extension to create binary compatible casts. Includes dependency tracking as well. pg_proc.proimplicit is now defunct, but will be removed in a separate commit. pg_dump provides a migration path from the previous scheme to declare casts. Dumping binary compatible casts is currently impossible, though.
