* Fix collations when we call transformWhereClause from outside the parser.Tom Lane2011-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | Previous patches took care of assorted places that call transformExpr from outside the main parser, but I overlooked the fact that some places use transformWhereClause as a shortcut for transformExpr + coerce_to_boolean. In particular this broke collation-sensitive index WHERE clauses, as per report from Thom Brown. Trigger WHEN and rule WHERE clauses too. I'm not forcing initdb for this fix, but any affected indexes, triggers, or rules will need to be dropped and recreated.
* Refactor the executor's API to support data-modifying CTEs better.Tom Lane2011-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The originally committed patch for modifying CTEs didn't interact well with EXPLAIN, as noted by myself, and also had corner-case problems with triggers, as noted by Dean Rasheed. Those problems show it is really not practical for ExecutorEnd to call any user-defined code; so split the cleanup duties out into a new function ExecutorFinish, which must be called between the last ExecutorRun call and ExecutorEnd. Some Asserts have been added to these functions to help verify correct usage. It is no longer necessary for callers of the executor to call AfterTriggerBeginQuery/AfterTriggerEndQuery for themselves, as this is now done by ExecutorStart/ExecutorFinish respectively. If you really need to suppress that and do it for yourself, pass EXEC_FLAG_SKIP_TRIGGERS to ExecutorStart. Also, refactor portal commit processing to allow for the possibility that PortalDrop will invoke user-defined code. I think this is not actually necessary just yet, since the portal-execution-strategy logic forces any non-pure-SELECT query to be run to completion before we will consider committing. But it seems like good future-proofing.
* Fix dangling-pointer problem in before-row update trigger processing.Tom Lane2011-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ExecUpdate checked for whether ExecBRUpdateTriggers had returned a new tuple value by seeing if the returned tuple was pointer-equal to the old one. But the "old one" was in estate->es_junkFilter's result slot, which would be scribbled on if we had done an EvalPlanQual update in response to a concurrent update of the target tuple; therefore we were comparing a dangling pointer to a live one. Given the right set of circumstances we could get a false match, resulting in not forcing the tuple to be stored in the slot we thought it was stored in. In the case reported by Maxim Boguk in bug #5798, this led to "cannot extract system attribute from virtual tuple" failures when trying to do "RETURNING ctid". I believe there is a very-low-probability chance of more serious errors, such as generating incorrect index entries based on the original rather than the trigger-modified version of the row. In HEAD, change all of ExecBRInsertTriggers, ExecIRInsertTriggers, ExecBRUpdateTriggers, and ExecIRUpdateTriggers so that they continue to have similar APIs. In the back branches I just changed ExecBRUpdateTriggers, since there is no bug in the ExecBRInsertTriggers case.
* Extend ALTER TABLE to allow Foreign Keys to be added without initial validation.Simon Riggs2011-02-08
| | | | | | | | | FK constraints that are marked NOT VALID may later be VALIDATED, which uses an ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on constraint table and RowShareLock on referenced table. Significantly reduces lock strength and duration when adding FKs. New state visible from psql. Simon Riggs, with reviews from Marko Tiikkaja and Robert Haas

* Object access hook framework, with post-creation hook.Robert Haas2010-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Support triggers on views.Tom Lane2010-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the SQL-standard concept of an INSTEAD OF trigger, which is fired instead of performing a physical insert/update/delete. The trigger function is passed the entire old and/or new rows of the view, and must figure out what to do to the underlying tables to implement the update. So this feature can be used to implement updatable views using trigger programming style rather than rule hacking. In passing, this patch corrects the names of some columns in the information_schema.triggers view. It seems the SQL committee renamed them somewhere between SQL:99 and SQL:2003. Dean Rasheed, reviewed by Bernd Helmle; some additional hacking by me.
* Remove cvs keywords from all files.Magnus Hagander2010-09-20

* SERIALIZABLE transactions are actually implemented beneath the covers withJoe Conway2010-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | transaction snapshots, i.e. a snapshot registered at the beginning of a transaction. Change variable naming and comments to reflect this reality in preparation for a future, truly serializable mode, e.g. Serializable Snapshot Isolation (SSI). For the moment transaction snapshots are still used to implement SERIALIZABLE, but hopefully not for too much longer. Patch by Kevin Grittner and Dan Ports with review and some minor wording changes by me.
* Fix possible corruption of AfterTriggerEventLists in subtransaction rollback.Tom Lane2010-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | afterTriggerInvokeEvents failed to adjust events->tailfree when truncating the last chunk of an event list. This could result in the data being "de-truncated" by afterTriggerRestoreEventList during a subsequent subtransaction abort. Even that wouldn't kill us, because the re-added data would just be events marked DONE --- unless the data had been partially overwritten by new events. Then we might crash, or in any case misbehave (perhaps fire triggers twice, or fire triggers with the wrong event data). Per bug #5622 from Thue Janus Kristensen. Back-patch to 8.4 where the current trigger list representation was introduced.
* Standardize get_whatever_oid functions for other object types.Robert Haas2010-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Rename TSParserGetPrsid to get_ts_parser_oid. - Rename TSDictionaryGetDictid to get_ts_dict_oid. - Rename TSTemplateGetTmplid to get_ts_template_oid. - Rename TSConfigGetCfgid to get_ts_config_oid. - Rename FindConversionByName to get_conversion_oid. - Rename GetConstraintName to get_constraint_oid. - Add new functions get_opclass_oid, get_opfamily_oid, get_rewrite_oid, get_rewrite_oid_without_relid, get_trigger_oid, and get_cast_oid. The name of each function matches the corresponding catalog. Thanks to KaiGai Kohei for the review.
* Reduce lock levels of CREATE TRIGGER and some ALTER TABLE, CREATE RULE actions.Simon Riggs2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | Avoid hard-coding lockmode used for many altering DDL commands, allowing easier future changes of lock levels. Implementation of initial analysis on DDL sub-commands, so that many lock levels are now at ShareUpdateExclusiveLock or ShareRowExclusiveLock, allowing certain DDL not to block reads/writes. First of number of planned changes in this area; additional docs required when full project complete.

* Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas2010-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Fix assorted core dumps and Assert failures that could occur duringTom Lane2010-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | AbortTransaction or AbortSubTransaction, when trying to clean up after an error that prevented (sub)transaction start from completing: * access to TopTransactionResourceOwner that might not exist * assert failure in AtEOXact_GUC, if AtStart_GUC not called yet * assert failure or core dump in AfterTriggerEndSubXact, if AfterTriggerBeginSubXact not called yet Per testing by injecting elog(ERROR) at successive steps in StartTransaction and StartSubTransaction. It's not clear whether all of these cases could really occur in the field, but at least one of them is easily exposed by simple stress testing, as per my accidental discovery yesterday.
* Improve the handling of SET CONSTRAINTS commands by having them searchTom Lane2010-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pg_constraint before searching pg_trigger. This allows saner handling of corner cases; in particular we now say "constraint is not deferrable" rather than "constraint does not exist" when the command is applied to a constraint that's inherently non-deferrable. Per a gripe several months ago from hubert depesz lubaczewski. To make this work without breaking user-defined constraint triggers, we have to add entries for them to pg_constraint. However, in return we can remove the pgconstrname column from pg_constraint, which represents a fairly sizable space savings. I also replaced the tgisconstraint column with tgisinternal; the old meaning of tgisconstraint can now be had by testing for nonzero tgconstraint, while there is no other way to get the old meaning of nonzero tgconstraint, namely that the trigger was internally generated rather than being user-created. In passing, fix an old misstatement in the docs and comments, namely that pg_trigger.tgdeferrable is exactly redundant with pg_constraint.condeferrable. Actually, we mark RI action triggers as nondeferrable even when they belong to a nominally deferrable FK constraint. The SET CONSTRAINTS code now relies on that instead of hard-coding a list of exception OIDs.

* Add a WHEN clause to CREATE TRIGGER, allowing a boolean expression to beTom Lane2009-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | checked to determine whether the trigger should be fired. For BEFORE triggers this is mostly a matter of spec compliance; but for AFTER triggers it can provide a noticeable performance improvement, since queuing of a deferred trigger event and re-fetching of the row(s) at end of statement can be short-circuited if the trigger does not need to be fired. Takahiro Itagaki, reviewed by KaiGai Kohei.
* Fix AfterTriggerSaveEvent to use a test and elog, not just Assert, to checkTom Lane2009-10-27
| | | | | | | | | that it's called within an AfterTriggerBeginQuery/AfterTriggerEndQuery pair. The RI cascade triggers suppress that overhead on the assumption that they are always run non-deferred, so it's possible to violate the condition if someone mistakenly changes pg_trigger to mark such a trigger deferred. We don't really care about supporting that, but throwing an error instead of crashing seems desirable. Per report from Marcelo Costa.
* Re-implement EvalPlanQual processing to improve its performance and eliminateTom Lane2009-10-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a lot of strange behaviors that occurred in join cases. We now identify the "current" row for every joined relation in UPDATE, DELETE, and SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE queries. If an EvalPlanQual recheck is necessary, we jam the appropriate row into each scan node in the rechecking plan, forcing it to emit only that one row. The former behavior could rescan the whole of each joined relation for each recheck, which was terrible for performance, and what's much worse could result in duplicated output tuples. Also, the original implementation of EvalPlanQual could not re-use the recheck execution tree --- it had to go through a full executor init and shutdown for every row to be tested. To avoid this overhead, I've associated a special runtime Param with each LockRows or ModifyTable plan node, and arranged to make every scan node below such a node depend on that Param. Thus, by signaling a change in that Param, the EPQ machinery can just rescan the already-built test plan. This patch also adds a prohibition on set-returning functions in the targetlist of SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE. This is needed to avoid the duplicate-output-tuple problem. It seems fairly reasonable since the other restrictions on SELECT FOR UPDATE are meant to ensure that there is a unique correspondence between source tuples and result tuples, which an output SRF destroys as much as anything else does.
* Support SQL-compliant triggers on columns, ie fire only if certain columnsTom Lane2009-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | are named in the UPDATE's SET list. Note: the schema of pg_trigger has not actually changed; we've just started to use a column that was there all along. catversion bumped anyway so that this commit is included in the history of potentially interesting changes to system catalog contents. Itagaki Takahiro
* Split the processing of INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE operations out of execMain.c.Tom Lane2009-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | They are now handled by a new plan node type called ModifyTable, which is placed at the top of the plan tree. In itself this change doesn't do much, except perhaps make the handling of RETURNING lists and inherited UPDATEs a tad less klugy. But it is necessary preparation for the intended extension of allowing RETURNING queries inside WITH. Marko Tiikkaja
* Support hex-string input and output for type BYTEA.Tom Lane2009-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Both hex format and the traditional "escape" format are automatically handled on input. The output format is selected by the new GUC variable bytea_output. As committed, bytea_output defaults to HEX, which is an *incompatible change*. We will keep it this way for awhile for testing purposes, but should consider whether to switch to the more backwards-compatible default of ESCAPE before 8.5 is released. Peter Eisentraut
* Merge the Constraint and FkConstraint node types into a single type.Tom Lane2009-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | This was foreseen to be a good idea long ago, but nobody had got round to doing it. The recent patch for deferred unique constraints made transformConstraintAttrs() ugly enough that I decided it was time. This change will also greatly simplify parsing of deferred CHECK constraints, if anyone ever gets around to implementing that. While at it, add a location field to Constraint, and use that to provide an error cursor for some of the constraint-related error messages.
* Support deferrable uniqueness constraints.Tom Lane2009-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | The current implementation fires an AFTER ROW trigger for each tuple that looks like it might be non-unique according to the index contents at the time of insertion. This works well as long as there aren't many conflicts, but won't scale to massive unique-key reassignments. Improving that case is a TODO item. Dean Rasheed
* Add system catalog columns pg_constraint.conindid and pg_trigger.tgconstrindid.Tom Lane2009-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | conindid is the index supporting a constraint. We can use this not only for unique/primary-key constraints, but also foreign-key constraints, which depend on the unique index that constrains the referenced columns. tgconstrindid is just copied from the constraint's conindid field, or is zero for triggers not associated with constraints. This is mainly intended as infrastructure for upcoming patches, but it has some virtue in itself, since it exposes a relationship that you formerly had to grovel in pg_depend to determine. I simplified one information_schema view accordingly. (There is a pg_dump query that could also use conindid, but I left it alone because it wasn't clear it'd get any faster.)
* Fix the just-reported problem that you can't specify all four trigger eventTom Lane2009-06-18
| | | | | | types in CREATE TRIGGER. While at it, clean up the amazingly tedious and inextensible way that the trigger event type list was handled. Per report from Greg Sabino Mullane.

* Fix failure to ensure that a snapshot is available to datatype input functionsTom Lane2008-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when they are invoked by the parser. We had been setting up a snapshot at plan time but really it needs to be done earlier, before parse analysis. Per report from Dmitry Koterov. Also fix two related problems discovered while poking at this one: exec_bind_message called datatype input functions without establishing a snapshot, and SET CONSTRAINTS IMMEDIATE could call trigger functions without establishing a snapshot. Backpatch to 8.2. The underlying problem goes much further back, but it is masked in 8.1 and before because we didn't attempt to invoke domain check constraints within datatype input. It would only be exposed if a C-language datatype input function used the snapshot; which evidently none do, or we'd have heard complaints sooner. Since this code has changed a lot over time, a back-patch is hardly risk-free, and so I'm disinclined to patch further than absolutely necessary.

* Replace pg_class.reltriggers with relhastriggers, which is just a boolean hintTom Lane2008-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ("there might be triggers") rather than an exact count. This is necessary catalog infrastructure for the upcoming patch to reduce the strength of locking needed for trigger addition/removal. Split out and committed separately for ease of reviewing/testing. In passing, also get rid of the unused pg_class columns relukeys, relfkeys, and relrefs, which haven't been maintained in many years and now have no chance of ever being maintained (because of wishing to avoid locking). Simon Riggs
* Remove all uses of the deprecated functions heap_formtuple, heap_modifytuple,Tom Lane2008-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | 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
* Reduce the memory footprint of large pending-trigger-event lists, as per myTom Lane2008-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | recent proposal. In typical cases, we now need 12 bytes per insert or delete event and 16 bytes per update event; previously we needed 40 bytes per event on 32-bit hardware and 80 bytes per event on 64-bit hardware. Even in the worst case usage pattern with a large number of distinct triggers being fired in one query, usage is at most 32 bytes per event. It seems to be a bit faster than the old code as well, due to reduction of palloc overhead. This commit doesn't address the TODO item of allowing the event list to spill to disk; rather it's trying to stave off the need for that. However, it probably makes that task a bit easier by reducing the data structure's dependency on pointers. It would now be practical to dump an event list to disk by "chunks" instead of individual events.
* Add a bunch of new error location reports to parse-analysis error messages.Tom Lane2008-09-01
| | | | | There are still some weak spots around JOIN USING and relation alias lists, but most errors reported within backend/parser/ now have locations.
* Adjust things so that the query_string of a cached plan and the sourceText ofTom Lane2008-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a portal are never NULL, but reliably provide the source text of the query. It turns out that there was only one place that was really taking a short-cut, which was the 'EXECUTE' utility statement. That doesn't seem like a sufficiently critical performance hotspot to justify not offering a guarantee of validity of the portal source text. Fix it to copy the source text over from the cached plan. Add Asserts in the places that set up cached plans and portals to reject null source strings, and simplify a bunch of places that formerly needed to guard against nulls. There may be a few places that cons up statements for execution without having any source text at all; I found one such in ConvertTriggerToFK(). It seems sufficient to inject a phony source string in such a case, for instance ProcessUtility((Node *) atstmt, "(generated ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY command)", NULL, false, None_Receiver, NULL); We should take a second look at the usage of debug_query_string, particularly the recently added current_query() SQL function.

* Clean up the use of some page-header-access macros: principally, useTom Lane2008-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | SizeOfPageHeaderData instead of sizeof(PageHeaderData) in places where that makes the code clearer, and avoid casting between Page and PageHeader where possible. Zdenek Kotala, with some additional cleanup by Heikki Linnakangas. I did not apply the parts of the proposed patch that would have resulted in slightly changing the on-disk format of hash indexes; it seems to me that's not a win as long as there's any chance of having in-place upgrade for 8.4.
* Add support for tracking call counts and elapsed runtime for user-definedTom Lane2008-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | 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)
* Improve snapshot manager by keeping explicit track of snapshots.Alvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two ways to track a snapshot: there's the "registered" list, which is used for arbitrary long-lived snapshots; and there's the "active stack", which is used for the snapshot that is considered "active" at any time. This also allows users of snapshots to stop worrying about snapshot memory allocation and freeing, and about using PG_TRY blocks around ActiveSnapshot assignment. This is all done automatically now. As a consequence, this allows us to reset MyProc->xmin when there are no more snapshots registered in the current backend, reducing the impact that long-running transactions have on VACUUM.
* Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Support statement-level ON TRUNCATE triggers. Simon RiggsTom Lane2008-03-28

* Move the HTSU_Result enum definition into snapshot.h, to avoid includingAlvaro Herrera2008-03-26
| | | | | | tqual.h into heapam.h. This makes all inclusion of tqual.h explicit. I also sorted alphabetically the includes on some source files.
* Rename snapmgmt.c/h to snapmgr.c/h, for consistency with other files.Alvaro Herrera2008-03-26
| | | | Per complaint from Tom Lane.
* Separate snapshot management code from tuple visibility code, create aAlvaro Herrera2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | snapmgmt.c file for the former. The header files have also been reorganized in three parts: the most basic snapshot definitions are now in a new file snapshot.h, and the also new snapmgmt.h keeps the definitions for snapmgmt.c. tqual.h has been reduced to the bare minimum. This patch is just a first step towards managing live snapshots within a transaction; there is no functionality change. Per my proposal to pgsql-patches on 20080318191940.GB27458@alvh.no-ip.org and subsequent discussion.
* Forbid ALTER TABLE and CLUSTER when there are pending AFTER-trigger eventsTom Lane2008-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | in the current backend for the target table. These operations move tuples around and would thus invalidate the TIDs stored in the trigger event records. (We need not worry about events in other backends, since acquiring exclusive lock should be enough to ensure there aren't any.) It might be sufficient to forbid only the table-rewriting variants of ALTER TABLE, but in the absence of any compelling use-case, let's just be safe and simple. Per follow-on investigation of bug #3847, though this is not actually the same problem reported therein. Possibly this should be back-patched, but since the case has never been reported from the field, I didn't bother.
