* EXPLAIN ANALYZE feature to measure and show actual runtimes and tupleTom Lane2001-09-18
| | | | | counts alongside the planner's estimates. By Martijn van Oosterhout, with some further work by Tom Lane.

* Make OIDs optional, per discussions in pghackers. WITH OIDS is still theTom Lane2001-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | default, but OIDS are removed from many system catalogs that don't need them. Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now; pg_description has a three-column key instead of one. Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and triggers in a valid order. initdb forced.

| | | | | | | it's hard to keep such massive changes in sync with the tree so I need to get it in and work from there now). Jan
* Clean up some minor problems exposed by further thought about Panon's bugTom Lane2001-06-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | report on old-style functions invoked by RI triggers. We had a number of other places that were being sloppy about which memory context FmgrInfo subsidiary data will be allocated in. Turns out none of them actually cause a problem in 7.1, but this is for arcane reasons such as the fact that old-style triggers aren't supported anyway. To avoid getting burnt later, I've restructured the trigger support so that we don't keep trigger FmgrInfo structs in relcache memory. Some other related cleanups too: it's not really necessary to call fmgr_info at all while setting up the index support info in relcache entries, because those ScanKeyEntry structs are never used to invoke the functions. This should speed up relcache initialization a tiny bit.
* When using a junkfilter, the output tuple should NOT be stored back intoTom Lane2001-05-27
| | | | | | | | the same tuple slot that the raw tuple came from, because that slot has the wrong tuple descriptor. Store it into its own slot with the correct descriptor, instead. This repairs problems with SPI functions seeing inappropriate tuple descriptors --- for example, plpgsql code failing to cope with SELECT FOR UPDATE.
* Make UPDATE and DELETE privileges distinct. Add REFERENCES and TRIGGERPeter Eisentraut2001-05-27
| | | | | privileges. INSERT and COPY FROM now require INSERT (only). Add privileges regression test.
* EvalPlanQual was thoroughly broken for concurrent update/delete on inheritanceTom Lane2001-05-15
| | | | | | | | trees (mostly my fault). Repair. Also fix long-standing bug in ExecReplace: after recomputing a concurrently updated tuple, we must recheck constraints. Make EvalPlanQual leak memory with somewhat less enthusiasm than before, although plugging leaks fully will require more changes than I care to risk in a dot-release.

* Clean up handling of tuple descriptors so that result-tuple descriptorsTom Lane2001-01-29
| | | | | | | | allocated by plan nodes are not leaked at end of query. This doesn't really matter for normal queries, but it sure does for queries invoked repetitively inside SQL functions. Clean up some other grotty code associated with tupdescs, and fix a few other memory leaks exposed by tests with simple SQL functions.

* In SELECT FOR UPDATE, silently ignore null CTIDs, rather than generatingTom Lane2000-12-05
| | | | | | | an error as we used to. In an OUTER JOIN scenario, retrieving a null CTID from one of the input relations is entirely expected. We still want to lock the input rows from the other relations, so just ignore the null and keep going.
* Restructure handling of inheritance queries so that they work with outerTom Lane2000-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | joins, and clean things up a good deal at the same time. Append plan node no longer hacks on rangetable at runtime --- instead, all child tables are given their own RT entries during planning. Concept of multiple target tables pushed up into execMain, replacing bug-prone implementation within nodeAppend. Planner now supports generating Append plans for inheritance sets either at the top of the plan (the old way) or at the bottom. Expanding at the bottom is appropriate for tables used as sources, since they may appear inside an outer join; but we must still expand at the top when the target of an UPDATE or DELETE is an inheritance set, because we actually need a different targetlist and junkfilter for each target table in that case. Fortunately a target table can't be inside an outer join... Bizarre mutual recursion between union_planner and prepunion.c is gone --- in fact, union_planner doesn't really have much to do with union queries anymore, so I renamed it grouping_planner.
* Re-implement LIMIT/OFFSET as a plan node type, instead of a hack inTom Lane2000-10-26
| | | | | | ExecutorRun. This allows LIMIT to work in a view. Also, LIMIT in a cursor declaration will behave in a reasonable fashion, whereas before it was overridden by the FETCH count.

* Reimplementation of UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT. INTERSECT/EXCEPT now meet theTom Lane2000-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | SQL92 semantics, including support for ALL option. All three can be used in subqueries and views. DISTINCT and ORDER BY work now in views, too. This rewrite fixes many problems with cross-datatype UNIONs and INSERT/SELECT where the SELECT yields different datatypes than the INSERT needs. I did that by making UNION subqueries and SELECT in INSERT be treated like subselects-in-FROM, thereby allowing an extra level of targetlist where the datatype conversions can be inserted safely. INITDB NEEDED!
* Subselects in FROM clause, per ISO syntax: FROM (SELECT ...) [AS] alias.Tom Lane2000-09-29
| | | | | | | | | (Don't forget that an alias is required.) Views reimplemented as expanding to subselect-in-FROM. Grouping, aggregates, DISTINCT in views actually work now (he says optimistically). No UNION support in subselects/views yet, but I have some ideas about that. Rule-related permissions checking moved out of rewriter and into executor. INITDB REQUIRED!
* First cut at full support for OUTER JOINs. There are still a few looseTom Lane2000-09-12
| | | | | ends to clean up (see my message of same date to pghackers), but mostly it works. INITDB REQUIRED!
* This patch implements a different "relkind"Bruce Momjian2000-09-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | for views. Views are now have a "relkind" of RELKIND_VIEW instead of RELKIND_RELATION. Also, views no longer have actual heap storage files. The following changes were made 1. CREATE VIEW sets the new relkind 2. The executor complains if a DELETE or INSERT references a view. 3. DROP RULE complains if an attempt is made to delete a view SELECT rule. 4. CREATE RULE "_RETmytable" AS ON SELECT TO mytable DO INSTEAD ... 1. checks to make sure mytable is empty. 2. sets the relkind to RELKIND_VIEW. 3. deletes the heap storage files. 5. LOCK myview is not allowed. :) 6. the regression test type_sanity was changed to account for the new relkind value. 7. CREATE INDEX ON myview ... is not allowed. 8. VACUUM myview is not allowed. VACUUM automatically skips views when do the entire database. 9. TRUNCATE myview is not allowed. THINGS LEFT TO THINK ABOUT o pg_views o pg_dump o pgsql (\d \dv) o Do we really want to be able to inherit from views? o Is 'DROP TABLE myview' OK? -- Mark Hollomon
* Code cleanup of user name and user id handling in the backend. The currentPeter Eisentraut2000-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | user is now defined in terms of the user id, the user name is only computed upon request (for display purposes). This is kind of the opposite of the previous state, which would maintain the user name and compute the user id for permission checks. Besides perhaps saving a few cycles (integer vs string), this now creates a single point of attack for changing the user id during a connection, for purposes of "setuid" functions, etc.
* Fix a many-legged critter reported by chifungfan@yahoo.com: under theTom Lane2000-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | right circumstances a hash join executed as a DECLARE CURSOR/FETCH query would crash the backend. Problem as seen in current sources was that the hash tables were stored in a context that was a child of TransactionCommandContext, which got zapped at completion of the FETCH command --- but cursor cleanup executed at COMMIT expected the tables to still be valid. I haven't chased down the details as seen in 7.0.* but I'm sure it's the same general problem.
* Clean up inefficiency in ExecRelCheck, and cause it to do the rightTom Lane2000-08-06

* First stage of reclaiming memory in executor by resetting short-termTom Lane2000-07-12

* Changed TOAST relations to have relkind RELKIND_TOASTVALUE.Jan Wieck2000-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Special handling of TOAST relations during VACUUM. TOAST relations are vacuumed while the lock on the master table is still active. The ANALYZE flag doesn't propagate to their vacuuming because the toaster access routines allways use index access ignoring stats, so why compute them at all. Protection of TOAST relations against normal INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE while offering SELECT for debugging purposes. Jan

* Make toast-table creation and deletion work somewhat reliably.Tom Lane2000-07-04
| | | | | | | Don't go through pg_exec_query_dest(), but directly to the execution routines. Also, extend parameter lists so that there's no need to change the global setting of allowSystemTableMods, a hack that was certain to cause trouble in the event of any error.
* Fix performance problems with pg_index lookups (see, for example,Tom Lane2000-06-17
| | | | | | | | | | discussion of 5/19/00). pg_index is now searched for indexes of a relation using an indexscan. Moreover, this is done once and cached in the relcache entry for the relation, in the form of a list of OIDs for the indexes. This list is used by the parser and executor to drive lookups in the pg_index syscache when they want to know the properties of the indexes. Net result: index information will be fully cached for repetitive operations such as inserts.

* Fix handling of NULL constraint conditions: per SQL92 spec, a NULL resultTom Lane2000-01-19
| | | | | | | | | from a constraint condition does not violate the constraint (cf. discussion on pghackers 12/9/99). Implemented by adding a parameter to ExecQual, specifying whether to return TRUE or FALSE when the qual result is really NULL in three-valued boolean logic. Currently, ExecRelCheck is the only caller that asks for TRUE, but if we find any other places that have the wrong response to NULL, it'll be easy to fix them.
