* Repair breakage of rules containing INSERT ... SELECT actions, per bugTom Lane2000-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | report from Joel Burton. Turns out that my simple idea of turning the SELECT into a subquery does not interact well *at all* with the way the rule rewriter works. Really what we need to make INSERT ... SELECT work cleanly is to decouple targetlists from rangetables: an INSERT ... SELECT wants to have two levels of targetlist but only one rangetable. No time for that for 7.1, however, so I've inserted some ugly hacks to make the rewriter know explicitly about the structure of INSERT ... SELECT queries. Ugh :-(
* Make DROP TABLE rollback-able: postpone physical file delete until commit.Tom Lane2000-11-08
| | | | | | | | | (WAL logging for this is not done yet, however.) Clean up a number of really crufty things that are no longer needed now that DROP behaves nicely. Make temp table mapper do the right things when drop or rename affecting a temp table is rolled back. Also, remove "relation modified while in use" error check, in favor of locking tables at first reference and holding that lock throughout the statement.
* 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

* 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.
* Remove 'func_tlist' from Func expression nodes, likewise 'param_tlist'Tom Lane2000-08-08
| | | | | | | | from Param nodes, per discussion a few days ago on pghackers. Add new expression node type FieldSelect that implements the functionality where it's actually needed. Clean up some other unused fields in Func nodes as well. NOTE: initdb forced due to change in stored expression trees for rules.
* Use a private memory context to store rule information in each relcacheTom Lane2000-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | entry that has rules. This allows us to release the rule parsetrees on relcache flush without needing a working freeObject() routine. Formerly, the rule trees were leaked permanently at relcache flush. Also, clean up handling of rule creation and deletion --- there was not sufficient locking of the relation being modified, and there was no reliable notification of other backends that a relcache reload was needed. Also, clean up relcache.c code so that scans of system tables needed to load a relcache entry are done in the caller's memory context, not in CacheMemoryContext. This prevents any un-pfreed memory from those scans from becoming a permanent memory leak.

* Except_Intersect_Rewrite() failed to ignore resjunk targetlist entries,Tom Lane2000-04-27

* Correct error in rewriter that caused SELECT count(*) FROM viewTom Lane2000-04-20
| | | | | | | to give wrong results: it should be looking at inJoinSet not inFromCl. Also, make 'modified' flag be local to ApplyRetrieveRule: we should append a rule's quals to the query iff that particular rule applies, not if we have fired any previously-considered rule for the query!

* When rewriting an aggregate introduced into WHERE, allow agg argument toTom Lane2000-04-04
| | | | | | | be an expression not just a simple Var, so long as only one table is referenced (so that code isn't really any more difficult than before). This whole thing is still fundamentally bogus, but at least we can accept a few more cases than before.
* Fix some (more) problems with subselects in rules. Rewriter failed toTom Lane2000-03-16
| | | | | | | mark query as having subselects if a subselect was added from a rule WHERE condition (as opposed to a rule action). Also, fix adjustment of varlevelsup so that it actually has some prospect of working when inserting an expression containing a subselect into a subquery.
* Fix performance problem in fireRIRonSubselect: with nested subqueries,Tom Lane2000-03-12
| | | | | fireRIRonSubselect was invoked twice at each subselect, leading to an exponential amount of wasted effort.
* Redesign DISTINCT ON as discussed in pgsql-sql 1/25/00: syntax is nowTom Lane2000-01-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | SELECT DISTINCT ON (expr [, expr ...]) targetlist ... and there is a check to make sure that the user didn't specify an ORDER BY that's incompatible with the DISTINCT operation. Reimplement nodeUnique and nodeGroup to use the proper datatype-specific equality function for each column being compared --- they used to do bitwise comparisons or convert the data to text strings and strcmp(). (To add insult to injury, they'd look up the conversion functions once for each tuple...) Parse/plan representation of DISTINCT is now a list of SortClause nodes. initdb forced by querytree change...

* Implement subselects in target lists. Also, relax requirement thatTom Lane1999-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator. That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...), but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK. To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to. But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side row expression.
* Eliminate RewritePreprocessQuery, which was taking anTom Lane1999-11-01

* Fix planner and rewriter to follow SQL semantics for tables that areTom Lane1999-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | mentioned in FROM but not elsewhere in the query: such tables should be joined over anyway. Aside from being more standards-compliant, this allows removal of some very ugly hacks for COUNT(*) processing. Also, allow HAVING clause without aggregate functions, since SQL does. Clean up CREATE RULE statement-list syntax the same way Bruce just fixed the main stmtmulti production. CAUTION: addition of a field to RangeTblEntry nodes breaks stored rules; you will have to initdb if you have any rules.
* Stick finger into a couple more holes in the leaky dike ofTom Lane1999-10-02
| | | | | | | modifyAggrefQual. This routine really, really needs to be retired, but until we have subselects in FROM there's no chance of doing the job right. In the meantime try to respond to unhandlable cases with elog rather than coredump.
* Clean up rewriter routines to use expression_tree_walker andTom Lane1999-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | expression_tree_mutator rather than ad-hoc tree walking code. This shortens the code materially and fixes a fair number of sins of omission. Also, change modifyAggrefQual to *not* recurse into subselects, since its mission is satisfied if it removes aggregate functions from the top level of a WHERE clause. This cures problems with queries of the form SELECT ... WHERE x IN (SELECT ... HAVING something-using-an-aggregate), which would formerly get mucked up by modifyAggrefQual. The routine is still fundamentally broken, of course, but I don't think there's any way to get rid of it before we implement subselects in FROM ...
* Remove incorrect 'Assert(targetList != NULL)'. AnTom Lane1999-09-19
| | | | | INSERT ... DEFAULT VALUES statement does indeed have a null targetlist, at least during parse and rewrite stages.
* Mega-commit to make heap_open/heap_openr/heap_close take anTom Lane1999-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or 'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi. Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the Relation struct layout slightly. Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.
* Revise implementation of SubLinks so that there is a consistent,Tom Lane1999-08-25
| | | | | | | | | documented intepretation of the lefthand and oper fields. Fix a number of obscure problems while at it --- for example, the old code failed if the parser decided to insert a type-coercion function just below the operator of a SubLink. CAUTION: this will break stored rules that contain subplans. You may need to initdb.

* Replace rewriter's checkQueryHasAggs and checkQueryHasSubLinkTom Lane1999-06-21
| | | | | | | | with expression_tree_walker-based code. The former failed to cope with expressions containing SubLinks, and the latter returned TRUE for both SubLinks and Aggrefs (cut-and-paste bug?). There is a lot more scope for using expression_tree_walker in this module, but I'll restrain myself until the 6.6 split occurs from touching not-demonstrably-broken code.

* Bugfix - Range table entries that are unused after rewriting shouldJan Wieck1999-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | not be marked inFromCl any longer. Otherwise the planner gets confused and joins over them where in fact it does not have to. Adjust hasSubLinks now with a recursive lookup - could be wrong in multi action rules because parse state isn't reset correctly and all actions in the rule are marked hasSubLinks if one of them has.
