2010-08-26Improve wording for privilege description on certain failure messages; theAlvaro Herrera
original misleadingly suggests that only access is meant, causing confusion. Per recent trouble report by Robert McGehee on pgsql-admin.

at end of files.
2010-08-13Add xml_is_well_formed, xml_is_well_formed_document, xml_is_well_formed_contentTom Lane
functions to the core XML code. Per discussion, the former depends on XMLOPTION while the others do not. These supersede a version previously offered by contrib/xml2. Mike Fowler, reviewed by Pavel Stehule
2010-08-10Add three-parameter forms of array_to_string and string_to_array, to allowTom Lane
better handling of NULL elements within the arrays. The third parameter is a string that should be used to represent a NULL element, or should be translated into a NULL element, respectively. If the third parameter is NULL it behaves the same as the two-parameter form. There are two incompatible changes in the behavior of the two-parameter form of string_to_array. First, it will return an empty (zero-element) array rather than NULL when the input string is of zero length. Second, if the field separator is NULL, the function splits the string into individual characters, rather than returning NULL as before. These two changes make this form fully compatible with the behavior of the new three-parameter form. Pavel Stehule, reviewed by Brendan Jurd
2010-08-09Fix incorrect logic in plpgsql for cleanup after evaluation of non-simpleTom Lane
expressions. We need to deal with this when handling subscripts in an array assignment, and also when catching an exception. In an Assert-enabled build these omissions led to Assert failures, but I think in a normal build the only consequence would be short-term memory leakage; which may explain why this wasn't reported from the field long ago. Back-patch to all supported versions. 7.4 doesn't have exceptions, but otherwise these bugs go all the way back. Heikki Linnakangas and Tom Lane
2010-08-09Modify the handling of RAISE without parameters so that the error it throwsTom Lane
can be caught in the same places that could catch an ordinary RAISE ERROR in the same location. The previous coding insisted on throwing the error from the block containing the active exception handler; which is arguably more surprising, and definitely unlike Oracle's behavior. Not back-patching, since this is a pretty obscure corner case. The risk of breaking somebody's code in a minor version update seems to outweigh any possible benefit. Piyush Newe, reviewed by David Fetter
2010-08-08Add an xpath_exists() function. This is equivalent to XMLEXISTS except thatTom Lane
it offers support for namespace mapping. Mike Fowler, reviewed by David Fetter
2010-08-08Add stats functions and views to provide access to a transaction's ownTom Lane
statistics counts. These numbers are being accumulated but haven't yet been transmitted to the collector (and won't be, until the transaction ends). For some purposes, though, it's handy to be able to look at them. Joel Jacobson, reviewed by Itagaki Takahiro
2010-08-07Recognize functional dependency on primary keys. This allows a table'sTom Lane
other columns to be referenced without listing them in GROUP BY, so long as the primary key column(s) are listed in GROUP BY. Eventually we should also allow functional dependency on a UNIQUE constraint when the columns are marked NOT NULL, but that has to wait until NOT NULL constraints are represented in pg_constraint, because we need to have pg_constraint OIDs for all the conditions needed to ensure functional dependency. Peter Eisentraut, reviewed by Alex Hunsaker and Tom Lane
2010-08-05Remove the single-argument form of string_agg(). It added nothing much inTom Lane
functionality, while creating an ambiguity in usage with ORDER BY that at least two people have already gotten seriously confused by. Also, add an opr_sanity test to check that we don't in future violate the newly minted policy of not having built-in aggregates with the same name and different numbers of parameters. Per discussion of a complaint from Thom Brown.

2010-08-02Remove ancient PL/pgsql line numbering hack.Robert Haas
While this hack arguably has some benefit in terms of making PL/pgsql's line numbering match the programmer's expectations, it also makes PL/pgsql inconsistent with the remaining PLs, making it difficult for clients to reliably determine where the error actually is. On balance, it seems better to be consistent. Pavel Stehule
2010-08-01Make psql distinguish between unique indices and unique constraints.Robert Haas

2010-07-29Add explicit regression tests for ALTER TABLE lock levels.Simon Riggs
Use this to catch a couple of lock level assignments that slipped through manual testing, per Peter Eisentraut.
2010-07-28Fix potential failure when hashing the output of a subplan that producesTom Lane
a pass-by-reference datatype with a nontrivial projection step. We were using the same memory context for the projection operation as for the temporary context used by the hashtable routines in execGrouping.c. However, the hashtable routines feel free to reset their temp context at any time, which'd lead to destroying input data that was still needed. Report and diagnosis by Tao Ma. Back-patch to 8.1, where the problem was introduced by the changes that allowed us to work with "virtual" tuples instead of materializing intermediate tuple values everywhere. The earlier code looks quite similar, but it doesn't suffer the problem because the data gets copied into another context as a result of having to materialize ExecProject's output tuple.
2010-07-25CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS.Robert Haas
Reviewed by Bernd Helmle.
2010-07-23Add more checks against altering typed tablesPeter Eisentraut
- Prohibit altering column type - Prohibit changing inheritance - Move checks from Exec to Prep phases in ALTER TABLE code backpatched to 9.0
2010-07-18Allow ORDER BY/GROUP BY/etc items to match targetlist items regardless ofTom Lane
any implicit casting previously applied to the targetlist item. This is reasonable because the implicit cast, by definition, wasn't written by the user; so we are preserving the expected behavior that ORDER BY items match textually equivalent tlist items. The case never arose before because there couldn't be any implicit casting of a top-level SELECT item before we process ORDER BY etc. But now it can arise in the context of aggregates containing ORDER BY clauses, since the "targetlist" is the already-casted list of arguments for the aggregate. The net effect is that the datatype used for ORDER BY/DISTINCT purposes is the aggregate's declared input type, not that of the original input column; which is a bit debatable but not horrendous, and to do otherwise would require major rework that doesn't seem justified. Per bug #5564 from Daniel Grace. Back-patch to 9.0 where aggregate ORDER BY was implemented.
2010-07-12Make NestLoop plan nodes pass outer-relation variables into their innerTom Lane
relation using the general PARAM_EXEC executor parameter mechanism, rather than the ad-hoc kluge of passing the outer tuple down through ExecReScan. The previous method was hard to understand and could never be extended to handle parameters coming from multiple join levels. This patch doesn't change the set of possible plans nor have any significant performance effect, but it's necessary infrastructure for future generalization of the concept of an inner indexscan plan. ExecReScan's second parameter is now unused, so it's removed.
2010-07-08Fix variant float8 expected files to have exactly the expected spacing.Tom Lane
This wasn't important when we used diff's -w (--ignore-all-space) option to compare regression result files, but it is now. Per buildfarm member canary, which evidently has been offline since we did that in November, but came to life again today.
2010-07-08Fix "cannot handle unplanned sub-select" error that can occur when aTom Lane
sub-select contains a join alias reference that expands into an expression containing another sub-select. Per yesterday's report from Merlin Moncure and subsequent off-list investigation. Back-patch to 7.4. Older versions didn't attempt to flatten sub-selects in ways that would trigger this problem.

2010-07-05Split the LDFLAGS make variable into two parts: LDFLAGS is now used forTom Lane
linking both executables and shared libraries, and we add on LDFLAGS_EX when linking executables or LDFLAGS_SL when linking shared libraries. This provides a significantly cleaner way of dealing with link-time switches than the former behavior. Also, make sure that the various platform-specific %.so: %.o rules incorporate LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_SL; most of them missed that before. (I did not add these variables for the platforms that invoke $(LD) directly, however. It's not clear if we can do that safely, since for the most part we assume these variables use CC command-line syntax.) Per gripe from Aaron Swenson and subsequent investigation.
2010-06-25Fix thinko in tok_is_keyword(): it was looking at the wrong union variantTom Lane
of YYSTYPE, and hence returning the wrong answer for cases where a plpgsql "unreserved keyword" really does conflict with a variable name. Obviously I didn't test this enough :-(. Per bug #5524 from Peter Gagarinov.
2010-06-21Fix mishandling of whole-row Vars referencing a view or sub-select.Tom Lane
If such a Var appeared within a nested sub-select, we failed to translate it correctly during pullup of the view, because the recursive call to replace_rte_variables_mutator was looking for the wrong sublevels_up value. Bug was introduced during the addition of the PlaceHolderVar mechanism. Per bug #5514 from Marcos Castedo.
2010-06-12Add missing --use-existing --help mention from regression binary.Bruce Momjian

2010-05-30Change the notation for calling functions with named parameters fromTom Lane
"val AS name" to "name := val", as per recent discussion. This patch catches everything in the original named-parameters patch, but I'm not certain that no other dependencies snuck in later (grepping the source tree for all uses of AS soon proved unworkable). In passing I note that we've dropped the ball at least once on keeping ecpg's lexer (as opposed to parser) in sync with the backend. It would be a good idea to go through all of pgc.l and see if it's in sync now. I didn't attempt that at the moment.
2010-05-28Rewrite LIKE's %-followed-by-_ optimization so it really works (this timeTom Lane
for sure ;-)). It now also optimizes more cases, such as %_%_. Improve comments too. Per bug #5478. In passing, also rename the TCHAR macro to GETCHAR, because pgindent is messing with the formatting of the former (apparently it now thinks TCHAR is a typedef name). Back-patch to 8.3, where the bug was introduced.
2010-05-23Fix oversight in join removal patch: we have to delete the removed relationTom Lane
from SpecialJoinInfo relid sets as well. Per example from Vaclav Novotny.
2010-05-02Update standbycheck test output with new ERROR message changes. No changesSimon Riggs
to tests and no changes in accepted server behaviour.
2010-04-28Modify the built-in text search parser to handle URLs more nearly accordingTom Lane
to RFC 3986. In particular, these characters now terminate the path part of a URL: '"', '<', '>', '\', '^', '`', '{', '|', '}'. The previous behavior was inconsistent and depended on whether a "?" was present in the path. Per gripe from Donald Fraser and spec research by Kevin Grittner. This is a pre-existing bug, but not back-patching since the risks of breaking existing applications seem to outweigh the benefits.
2010-04-26Reorder pg_stat_activity columns to be more consistent, using layoutBruce Momjian
suggested by Tom Lane. Catalog version bumped due to system view change.
2010-04-19Add an 'enable_material' GUC.Robert Haas
The logic for determining whether to materialize has been significantly overhauled for 9.0. In case there should be any doubt about whether materialization is a win in any particular case, this should provide a convenient way of seeing what happens without it; but even with enable_material turned off, we still materialize in cases where it is required for correctness. Thanks to Tom Lane for the review.
2010-04-07Fix to_char YYY, YY, Y format codes so that FM zero-suppression really works,Tom Lane
rather than only sort-of working as the previous attempt had left it. Clean up some unnecessary differences between the way these were coded and the way the YYYY case was coded. Update the regression test cases that proved that it wasn't working.
2010-03-28Rework join-removal logic as per recent discussion. In particular thisTom Lane
fixes things so that it works for cases where nested removals are possible. The overhead of the optimization should be significantly less, as well.
2010-03-22Fix regression test breakage from recent change in default name of ↵Tom Lane
exclusion-constraint index.
2010-03-22Fix an oversight in join-removal optimization: we have to check not only forTom Lane
plain Vars that are generated in the inner rel and used above the join, but also for PlaceHolderVars. Per report from Oleg K.
2010-03-14Update oidjoins regression test for 9.0.Tom Lane
2010-02-27Insert a hack into get_float8_nan (both core and ecpg copies) to deal withTom Lane
the fact that NetBSD/mips is currently broken, as per buildfarm member pika. Also add regression tests to ensure that get_float8_nan and get_float4_nan are exercised even on platforms where they are not needed by float8in/float4in. Zoltán Böszörményi and Tom Lane
2010-02-26pgindent run for 9.0Bruce Momjian
2010-02-24Make pg_regress use CREATE OR REPLACE LANGUAGE, so that --load-languageTom Lane
will work whether or not the specified language is preinstalled. This responds to some complaints about having to change test scripts because plpgsql is preinstalled as of 9.0.
2010-02-20Clean up handling of XactReadOnly and RecoveryInProgress checks.Tom Lane
Add some checks that seem logically necessary, in particular let's make real sure that HS slave sessions cannot create temp tables. (If they did they would think that temp tables belonging to the master's session with the same BackendId were theirs. We *must* not allow myTempNamespace to become set in a slave session.) Change setval() and nextval() so that they are only allowed on temp sequences in a read-only transaction. This seems consistent with what we allow for table modifications in read-only transactions. Since an HS slave can't have a temp sequence, this also provides a nicer cure for the setval PANIC reported by Erik Rijkers. Make the error messages more uniform, and have them mention the specific command being complained of. This seems worth the trifling amount of extra code, since people are likely to see such messages a lot more than before.
2010-02-18Fix ExecEvalArrayRef to pass down the old value of the array element or sliceTom Lane
being assigned to, in case the expression to be assigned is a FieldStore that would need to modify that value. The need for this was foreseen some time ago, but not implemented then because we did not have arrays of composites. Now we do, but the point evidently got overlooked in that patch. Net result is that updating a field of an array element doesn't work right, as illustrated if you try the new regression test on an unpatched backend. Noted while experimenting with EXPLAIN VERBOSE, which has also got some issues in this area. Backpatch to 8.3, where arrays of composites were introduced.
2010-02-17Stamp HEAD as 9.0devel, and update various places that were referring to 8.5Tom Lane
(hope I got 'em all). Per discussion, this release will be 9.0 not 8.5.
2010-02-16Replace the pg_listener-based LISTEN/NOTIFY mechanism with an in-memory queue.Tom Lane
In addition, add support for a "payload" string to be passed along with each notify event. This implementation should be significantly more efficient than the old one, and is also more compatible with Hot Standby usage. There is not yet any facility for HS slaves to receive notifications generated on the master, although such a thing is possible in future. Joachim Wieland, reviewed by Jeff Davis; also hacked on by me.
2010-02-16Honor to_char() "FM" specification in YYY, YY, and Y; it was alreadyBruce Momjian
honored by YYYY. Also document Oracle "toggle" FM behavior. Per report from Guy Rouillier
2010-02-12Extend the set of frame options supported for window functions.Tom Lane
This patch allows the frame to start from CURRENT ROW (in either RANGE or ROWS mode), and it also adds support for ROWS n PRECEDING and ROWS n FOLLOWING start and end points. (RANGE value PRECEDING/FOLLOWING isn't there yet --- the grammar works, but that's all.) Hitoshi Harada, reviewed by Pavel Stehule
2010-02-08Remove old-style VACUUM FULL (which was known for a little while asTom Lane
VACUUM FULL INPLACE), along with a boatload of subsidiary code and complexity. Per discussion, the use case for this method of vacuuming is no longer large enough to justify maintaining it; not to mention that we don't wish to invest the work that would be needed to make it play nicely with Hot Standby. Aside from the code directly related to old-style VACUUM FULL, this commit removes support for certain WAL record types that could only be generated within VACUUM FULL, redirect-pointer removal in heap_page_prune, and nontransactional generation of cache invalidation sinval messages (the last being the sticking point for Hot Standby). We still have to retain all code that copes with finding HEAP_MOVED_OFF and HEAP_MOVED_IN flag bits on existing tuples. This can't be removed as long as we want to support in-place update from pre-9.0 databases.
