euc_* and mule_internal test cases were identical to the ones in
src/test/mb. sql_ascii didn't exist elsewhere, but has been broken since
2001, and doesn't seem very interesting anyway. drop.sql hasn't been used
since 2000, when regress.sh was removed.

Fixes oversight in commit 2ffa740be9d96a3743ecb7e42391c53d0760c65a.
Per report from Josh Kupershmidt.
I think we've broken this case before, so let's add a regression test
this time.

In a construct like "select plain_function(set_returning_function(...))",
the plain function is applied to each output row of the SRF successively.
If some of the SRF outputs are NULL, and the plain function is strict,
you'd expect to get NULL results for such rows ... but what actually
happened was that such rows were omitted entirely from the result set.
This was due to confusion of this case with what should happen for nested
set-returning functions; a strict SRF is indeed supposed to yield an empty
set for null input. Per bug #8150 from Erwin Brandstetter.
Although this has been broken forever, we're not back-patching because
of the possibility that some apps out there expect the incorrect behavior.
This change should be listed as a possible incompatibility in the 9.3
release notes.

This reverts the code changes in 50c137487c96e629e0e5372bb3d1b5f1a2f71a88,
which turned out to induce crashes and not completely fix the problem
anyway. That commit only considered single subqueries that were excluded
by constraint-exclusion logic, but actually the problem also exists for
subqueries that are appendrel members (ie part of a UNION ALL list). In
such cases we can't add a dummy subpath to the appendrel's AppendPath list
without defeating the logic that recognizes when an appendrel is completely
excluded. Instead, fix the problem by having setrefs.c scan the rangetable
an extra time looking for subqueries that didn't get into the plan tree.
(This approach depends on the 9.2 change that made set_subquery_pathlist
generate dummy paths for excluded single subqueries, so that the exclusion
behavior is the same for single subqueries and appendrel members.)
Note: it turns out that the appendrel form of the missed-permissions-checks
bug exists as far back as 8.4. However, since the practical effect of that
bug seems pretty minimal, consensus is to not attempt to fix it in the back
branches, at least not yet. Possibly we could back-port this patch once
it's gotten a reasonable amount of testing in HEAD. For the moment I'm
just going to revert the previous patch in 9.2.

Previously this state was represented by whether the view's disk file had
zero or nonzero size, which is problematic for numerous reasons, since it's
breaking a fundamental assumption about heap storage. This was done to
allow unlogged matviews to revert to unpopulated status after a crash
despite our lack of any ability to update catalog entries post-crash.
However, this poses enough risk of future problems that it seems better to
not support unlogged matviews until we can find another way. Accordingly,
revert that choice as well as a number of existing kluges forced by it
in favor of creating a pg_class.relispopulated flag column.
|
|
The initial implementation of this feature was really unsupportable,
because it's relying on the physical size of an on-disk file to carry the
relation's populated/unpopulated state, which is at least a modularity
violation and could have serious long-term consequences. We could say that
an unlogged matview goes to empty on crash, but not everybody likes that
definition, so let's just remove the feature for 9.3. We can add it back
when we have a less klugy implementation.
I left the grammar and tab-completion support for CREATE UNLOGGED
MATERIALIZED VIEW in place, since it's harmless and allows delivering a
more specific error message about the unsupported feature.
I'm committing this separately to ease identification of what should be
reverted when/if we are able to re-enable the feature.

A view defined as "select <something> where false" had the curious property
that the system wouldn't check whether users had the privileges necessary
to select from it. More generally, permissions checks could be skipped
for tables referenced in sub-selects or views that were proven empty by
constraint exclusion (although some quick testing suggests this seldom
happens in cases of practical interest). This happened because the planner
failed to include rangetable entries for such tables in the finished plan.
This was noticed in connection with erroneous handling of materialized
views, but actually the issue is quite unrelated to matviews. Therefore,
revert commit 200ba1667b3a8d7a9d559d2f05f83d209c9d8267 in favor of a more
direct test for the real problem.
Back-patch to 9.2 where the bug was introduced (by commit

This patch gets rid of the concept of, and infrastructure for,
non-canonical PathKeys; we now only ever create canonical pathkey lists.
The need for non-canonical pathkeys came from the desire to have
grouping_planner initialize query_pathkeys and related pathkey lists before
calling query_planner. However, since query_planner didn't actually *do*
anything with those lists before they'd been made canonical, we can get rid
of the whole mess by just not creating the lists at all until the point
where we formerly canonicalized them.
There are several ways in which we could implement that without making
query_planner itself deal with grouping/sorting features (which are
supposed to be the province of grouping_planner). I chose to add a
callback function to query_planner's API; other alternatives would have
required adding more fields to PlannerInfo, which while not bad in itself
would create an ABI break for planner-related plugins in the 9.2 release
series. This still breaks ABI for anything that calls query_planner
directly, but it seems somewhat unlikely that there are any such plugins.
I had originally conceived of this change as merely a step on the way to
fixing bug #8049 from Teun Hoogendoorn; but it turns out that this fixes
that bug all by itself, as per the added regression test. The reason is
that now get_eclass_for_sort_expr is adding the ORDER BY expression at the
end of EquivalenceClass creation not the start, and so anything that is in
a multi-member EquivalenceClass has already been created with correct
em_nullable_relids. I am suspicious that there are related scenarios in
which we still need to teach get_eclass_for_sort_expr to compute correct
nullable_relids, but am not eager to risk destabilizing either 9.2 or 9.3
to fix bugs that are only hypothetical. So for the moment, do this and
stop here.
Back-patch to 9.2 but not to earlier branches, since they don't exhibit
this bug for lack of join-clause-movement logic that depends on
em_nullable_relids being correct. (We might have to revisit that choice
if any related bugs turn up.) In 9.2, don't change the signature of
make_pathkeys_for_sortclauses nor remove canonicalize_pathkeys, so as
not to risk more plugin breakage than we have to.

ORDER BY expressions were being treated the same as regular aggregate
arguments for purposes of collation determination, but really they should
not affect the aggregate's collation at all; only collations of the
aggregate's regular arguments should affect it.
In many cases this mistake would lead to incorrectly throwing a "collation
conflict" error; but in some cases the corrected code will silently assign
a different collation to the aggregate than before, for example
agg(foo ORDER BY bar COLLATE "x")
which will now use foo's collation rather than "x" for the aggregate.
Given this risk and the lack of field complaints about the issue, it
doesn't seem prudent to back-patch.
In passing, rearrange code in assign_collations_walker so that we don't
need multiple copies of the standard logic for computing collation of a
node with children. (Previously, CaseExpr duplicated the standard logic,
and we would have needed a third copy for Aggref without this change.)

Notice and complain about PQcancel() failures. Also, don't dump core if
an error PGresult doesn't contain severity and message subfields, as it
might not if it was generated by libpq itself. (We have a longstanding
TODO item to improve that, but in the meantime isolationtester had better
cope.)
I tripped across the latter item while investigating a trouble report on
buildfarm member spoonbill. As for the former, there's no evidence that
PQcancel failure is actually involved in spoonbill's problem, but it still
seems like a bad idea to ignore an error return code.

The JSON parser is converted into a recursive descent parser, and
exposed for use by other modules such as extensions. The API provides
hooks for all the significant parser event such as the beginning and end
of objects and arrays, and providing functions to handle these hooks
allows for fairly simple construction of a wide variety of JSON
processing functions. A set of new basic processing functions and
operators is also added, which use this API, including operations to
extract array elements, object fields, get the length of arrays and the
set of keys of a field, deconstruct an object into a set of key/value
pairs, and create records from JSON objects and arrays of objects.
Catalog version bumped.

This event takes place just before ddl_command_end, and is fired if and
only if at least one object has been dropped by the command. (For
instance, DROP TABLE IF EXISTS of a table that does not in fact exist
will not lead to such a trigger firing). Commands that drop multiple
objects (such as DROP SCHEMA or DROP OWNED BY) will cause a single event
to fire. Some firings might be surprising, such as
ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN.
The trigger is fired after the drop has taken place, because that has
been deemed the safest design, to avoid exposing possibly-inconsistent
internal state (system catalogs as well as current transaction) to the
user function code. This means that careful tracking of object
identification is required during the object removal phase.
Like other currently existing events, there is support for tag
filtering.
To support the new event, add a new pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects()
set-returning function, which returns a set of rows comprising the
objects affected by the command. This is to be used within the user
function code, and is mostly modelled after the recently introduced
pg_identify_object() function.
Catalog version bumped due to the new function.

The statistics-based cost estimation patch for range types broke that, by
incorrectly assuming that the left operand of all range oeprators is a
range. That lead to a "type x is not a range type" error. Because it took so
long for anyone to notice, add a regression test for that case.
We still don't do proper statistics-based cost estimation for that, so you
just get a default constant estimate. We should look into implementing that,
but this patch at least fixes the regression.

The buildfarm members using -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS still don't like this
test. Some experimentation shows that on my machine, isolationtester's
query to check for "waiting" state takes 2 to 2.5 seconds to bind+execute
under -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS. Set the timeouts to 5 seconds to leave some
headroom for possibly-slower buildfarm critters.
Really we ought to fix the "waiting" query, which is not only horridly
slow but outright wrong in detail; and then maybe we can back off these
timeouts. But right now I'm just trying to get the buildfarm green again.

Per report from Hadi Moshayedi of matview regression test failure
with optimization of aggregates. A few ORDER BY clauses improve
code coverage for matviews while solving that problem.
|
|
Buildfarm member friarbird doesn't like this test as-committed, evidently
because it's so slow that the test framework doesn't reliably notice that
the backend is waiting before the timeout goes off. (This is not totally
surprising, since friarbird builds with -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS.) Increase
the timeout delay from 1 second to 2 in hopes of resolving that problem.
|
|
This GUC allows limiting the time spent waiting to acquire any one
heavyweight lock.
In support of this, improve the recently-added timeout infrastructure
to permit efficiently enabling or disabling multiple timeouts at once.
That reduces the performance hit from turning on lock_timeout, though
it's still not zero.

This was discussed in connection with the patch to avoid inserting no-op
Result nodes, but not actually implemented therein.
|
|
This would have caught a bug in the initial patch, and seems like
a good thing to test going forward.
Per bug report by Erik Rijkers and fix by Tom Lane
|
|
The planner sometimes inserts Result nodes to perform column projections
(ie, arbitrary scalar calculations) above plan nodes that lack projection
logic of their own. However, we did that even if the lower plan node was
in fact producing the required column set already; which is a pretty common
case given the popularity of "SELECT * FROM ...". Measurements show that
the useless plan node adds non-negligible overhead, especially when there
are many columns in the result. So add a check to avoid inserting a Result
node unless there's something useful for it to do.
There are a couple of remaining places where unnecessary Result nodes
could get inserted, but they are (a) much less performance-critical,
and (b) coded in such a way that it's hard to avoid inserting a Result,
because the desired tlist is changed on-the-fly in subsequent logic.
We'll leave those alone for now.

There's still some discussion about exactly how postgres_fdw ought to
handle this case, but there seems no debate that we want to allow defaults
to be used for inserts into foreign tables. So remove the core-code
restrictions that prevented it.
While at it, get rid of the special grammar productions for CREATE FOREIGN
TABLE, and instead add explicit FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED error checks for the
disallowed cases. This makes the grammar a shade smaller, and more
importantly results in much more intelligible error messages for
unsupported cases. It's also one less thing to fix if we ever start
supporting constraints on foreign tables.

This adds the following:
json_agg(anyrecord) -> json
to_json(any) -> json
hstore_to_json(hstore) -> json (also used as a cast)
hstore_to_json_loose(hstore) -> json
The last provides heuristic treatment of numbers and booleans.
Also, in json generation, if any non-builtin type has a cast to json,
that function is used instead of the type's output function.

The previous coding of this function could get into situations where it
would never terminate, because successive passes would re-add EMPTY arcs
that had been removed by the previous pass. Rewrite the function
completely using a new algorithm that is guaranteed to terminate, and
also seems to be usually faster than the old one. Per Tcl bugs 3604074
and 3606683.

A materialized view has a rule just like a view and a heap and
other physical properties like a table. The rule is only used to
populate the table, references in queries refer to the
materialized data.
This is a minimal implementation, but should still be useful in
many cases. Currently data is only populated "on demand" by the
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW and REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW statements.
It is expected that future releases will add incremental updates
with various timings, and that a more refined concept of defining
what is "fresh" data will be developed. At some point it may even
be possible to have queries use a materialized in place of
references to underlying tables, but that requires the other
above-mentioned features to be working first.

Also make sure other fields of the view's pg_class entry are appropriate
for a view; it shouldn't have relfrozenxid set for instance.
This ancient omission isn't believed to have any serious consequences in
versions 8.4-9.2, so no backpatch. But let's fix it before it does bite
us in some serious way. It's just luck that the case doesn't cause
problems for autovacuum. (It did cause problems in 8.3, but that's out
of support.)

Revert commit ab0f7b6089fd215f6ce6081e2e222c38d643a526 (in HEAD only)
in favor of the proper solution, which is to declare enum_recv() correctly
in the system catalogs. It should be declared to take type "internal"
not "cstring".
Also improve the type_sanity regression test, which should have caught
this typo, so that it actually would. Most of the relevant checks on
the signature of type I/O functions should not have been restricted to
basetypes/pseudotypes, as they should apply to any type's I/O functions.

While there's considerable doubt that we want fuzzy behavior in the
geometric operators at all (let alone as currently implemented), nobody is
stepping forward to redesign that stuff. In the meantime it behooves us
to make sure that index searches agree with the behavior of the underlying
operators. This patch fixes two problems in this area.
First, gist_box_same was using fuzzy equality, but it really needs to use
exact equality to prevent not-quite-identical upper index keys from being
treated as identical, which for example would prevent an existing upper
key from being extended by an amount less than epsilon. This would result
in inconsistent indexes. (The next release notes will need to recommend
that users reindex GiST indexes on boxes, polygons, circles, and points,
since all four opclasses use gist_box_same.)
Second, gist_point_consistent used exact comparisons for upper-page
comparisons in ~= searches, when it needs to use fuzzy comparisons to
ensure it finds all matches; and it used fuzzy comparisons for point <@ box
searches, when it needs to use exact comparisons because that's what the
<@ operator (rather inconsistently) does.
The added regression test cases illustrate all three misbehaviors.
Back-patch to all active branches. (8.4 did not have GiST point_ops,
but it still seems prudent to apply the gist_box_same patch to it.)

This patch changes pg_get_viewdef() and allied functions so that
PRETTY_INDENT processing is always enabled. Per discussion, only the
PRETTY_PAREN processing (that is, stripping of "unnecessary" parentheses)
poses any real forward-compatibility risk, so we may as well make dump
output look as nice as we safely can.
Also, set the default wrap length to zero (i.e, wrap after each SELECT
or FROM list item), since there's no very principled argument for the
former default of 80-column wrapping, and most people seem to agree this
way looks better.

exec_simple_check_plan and exec_eval_simple_expr attempted to call
GetCachedPlan directly. This meant that if an error was thrown during
planning, the resulting context traceback would not include the line
normally contributed by _SPI_error_callback. This is already inconsistent,
but just to be really odd, a re-execution of the very same expression
*would* show the additional context line, because we'd already have cached
the plan and marked the expression as non-simple.
The problem is easy to demonstrate in 9.2 and HEAD because planning of a
cached plan doesn't occur at all until GetCachedPlan is done. In earlier
versions, it could only be an issue if initial planning had succeeded, then
a replan was forced (already somewhat improbable for a simple expression),
and the replan attempt failed. Since the issue is mainly cosmetic in older
branches anyway, it doesn't seem worth the risk of trying to fix it there.
It is worth fixing in 9.2 since the instability of the context printout can
affect the results of GET STACKED DIAGNOSTICS, as per a recent discussion
on pgsql-novice.
To fix, introduce a SPI function that wraps GetCachedPlan while installing
the correct callback function. Use this instead of calling GetCachedPlan
directly from plpgsql.
Also introduce a wrapper function for extracting a SPI plan's
CachedPlanSource list. This lets us stop including spi_priv.h in
pl_exec.c, which was never a very good idea from a modularity standpoint.
In passing, fix a similar inconsistency that could occur in SPI_cursor_open,
which was also calling GetCachedPlan without setting up a context callback.

Such cases should work, but the grammar failed to accept them because of
our ancient precedence hacks to convince bison that extra parentheses
around a sub-SELECT in an expression are unambiguous. (Formally, they
*are* ambiguous, but we don't especially care whether they're treated as
part of the sub-SELECT or part of the expression. Bison cares, though.)
Fix by adding a redundant-looking production for this case.
This is a fine example of why fixing shift/reduce conflicts via
precedence declarations is more dangerous than it looks: you can easily
cause the parser to reject cases that should work.
This has been wrong since commit 3db4056e22b0c6b2adc92543baf8408d2894fe91
or maybe before, and apparently some people have been working around it
by inserting no-op casts. That method introduces a dump/reload hazard,
as illustrated in bug #7838 from Jan Mate. Hence, back-patch to all
active branches.

The SQL standard does not have general functions-in-FROM, but it does
allow UNNEST() there (see the <collection derived table> production),
and the semantics of that are defined to include lateral references.
So spec compliance requires allowing lateral references within UNNEST()
even without an explicit LATERAL keyword. Rather than making UNNEST()
a special case, it seems best to extend this flexibility to any
function-in-FROM. We'll still allow LATERAL to be written explicitly
for clarity's sake, but it's now a noise word in this context.
In theory this change could result in a change in behavior of existing
queries, by allowing what had been an outer reference in a function-in-FROM
to be captured by an earlier FROM-item at the same level. However, all
pre-9.3 PG releases have a bug that causes them to match variable
references to earlier FROM-items in preference to outer references (and
then throw an error). So no previously-working query could contain the
type of ambiguity that would risk a change of behavior.
Per a suggestion from Andrew Gierth, though I didn't use his patch.
