* Simplify assignment of Inf for pow Nan (don't worry about the sign).Bruce Momjian2007-01-04

* Fix erroneous implementation of -s in postmaster.c (the switch doesn't takeTom Lane2007-01-04
| | | | | | an optarg). Add some comments noting that code in three different files has to be kept in sync. Fix erroneous description of -S switch (it sets work_mem not silent_mode), and do some light copy-editing elsewhere in postgres-ref.
* Fix regex_fixed_prefix() to cope reasonably well with regex patterns of theTom Lane2007-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | form '^(foo)$'. Before, these could never be optimized into indexscans. The recent changes to make psql and pg_dump generate such patterns (for \d commands and -t and related switches, respectively) therefore represented a big performance hit for people with large pg_class catalogs, as seen in recent gripe from Erik Jones. While at it, be more paranoid about case-sensitivity checking in multibyte encodings, and fix some other corner cases in which a regex might be interpreted too liberally.
* Update pow() tests to check for both errno==EDOM _and_ result==Nan, andBruce Momjian2007-01-03

* Clean up smgr.c/md.c APIs as per discussion a couple months ago. Instead ofTom Lane2007-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | having md.c return a success/failure boolean to smgr.c, which was just going to elog anyway, let md.c issue the elog messages itself. This allows better error reporting, particularly in cases such as "short read" or "short write" which Peter was complaining of. Also, remove the kluge of allowing mdread() to return zeroes from a read-beyond-EOF: this is now an error condition except when InRecovery or zero_damaged_pages = true. (Hash indexes used to require that behavior, but no more.) Also, enforce that mdwrite() is to be used for rewriting existing blocks while mdextend() is to be used for extending the relation EOF. This restriction lets us get rid of the old ad-hoc defense against creating huge files by an accidental reference to a bogus block number: we'll only create new segments in mdextend() not mdwrite() or mdread(). (Again, when InRecovery we allow it anyway, since we need to allow updates of blocks that were later truncated away.) Also, clean up the original makeshift patch for bug #2737: move the responsibility for padding relation segments to full length into md.c.
* Attempt to return proper overflow/underflow messages for platforms thatBruce Momjian2007-01-03

* For float4/8, remove errno checks for pow() and exp() because only someBruce Momjian2007-01-03
| | | | | | platforms set errno, and we already have a check macro that detects under/overflow, so there is no reason for platform-specific code anymore.

* Some platforms set errno on pow(), exp() overflow, some do not, so ifBruce Momjian2007-01-02

* Add n_live_tuples and n_dead_tuples to pg_stat_all_tables.Bruce Momjian2007-01-02
| | | | | | | | | The purpose is to allow autovacuum-esq conditional vacuuming and clustering using SQL to discover the required stats. No documentation updates required. Catalog version updated. Glen Parker

* Fix float4/8 to handle Infinity and Nan consistently, e.g. Infinity is aBruce Momjian2007-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | valid result from a computation if one of the input values was infinity. The previous code assumed an operation that returned infinity was an overflow. Handle underflow/overflow consistently, and add checks for aggregate overflow. Consistently prevent Inf/Nan from being cast to integer data types. Fix INT_MIN % -1 to prevent overflow. Update regression results for new error text. Per report from Roman Kononov.
* Found the problem with my operator-family changes: by fetching fromTom Lane2006-12-31
| | | | | | | | | | | pg_opclass during LookupOpclassInfo(), I'd turned pg_opclass_oid_index into a critical system index. However the problem could only manifest during a backend's first attempt to load opclass data, and then only if it had successfully loaded pg_internal.init and subsequently received a relcache flush; which made it impossible to reproduce in sequential tests and darn hard even in parallel tests. Memo to self: when exercising cache flush scenarios, must disable LookupOpclassInfo's internal cache too.

* Enable btree_predicate_proof() to make proofs involving cross-data-typeTom Lane2006-12-28
| | | | | predicate operators. The hard stuff turns out to be already done in the previous commit, we need merely open the floodgates...

* Add a defense to prevent core dumps if 8.2 version of rank_cd() is used withTom Lane2006-12-28
| | | | | | | | the 8.1 SQL function definition for it. Per report from Rajesh Kumar Mallah, such a DBA error doesn't seem at all improbable, and the cost of checking for it is not very high compared to the cost of running this function. (It would have been better to change the C name of the function so it wouldn't be called by the old SQL definition, but it's too late for that now in the 8.2 branch.)
* fflush the \o file, if any, after each backslash command. We alreadyTom Lane2006-12-28
| | | | | do this for ordinary SQL commands, so it seems consistent to do it for backslash commands too. Per gripe from Rajesh Kumar Mallah.

* Use a more backward-compatible syntax for exports.list on Linux.Tom Lane2006-12-27

* Clean up pgindent handling of comments after 'else' by only movingBruce Momjian2006-12-27

* Modify local buffer management to request memory for local buffers in blocksTom Lane2006-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | of increasing size, instead of one at a time. This reduces the memory management overhead when num_temp_buffers is large: in the previous coding we would actually waste 50% of the space used for temp buffers, because aset.c would round the individual requests up to 16K. Problem noted while studying a performance issue reported by Steven Flatt. Back-patch as far as 8.1 --- older versions used few enough local buffers that the issue isn't significant for them.
* Improve memory management code to avoid inefficient behavior when a contextTom Lane2006-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | has a small maxBlockSize: the maximum request size that we will treat as a "chunk" needs to be limited to fit in maxBlockSize. Otherwise we will round up the request size to the next power of 2, wasting space, which is a bit pointless if we aren't going to make the blocks big enough to fit additional stuff in them. The example motivating this is local buffer management, which makes repeated allocations of 8K (one BLCKSZ buffer) in TopMemoryContext, which has maxBlockSize = 8K because for the most part allocations there are small. This leads to each local buffer actually eating 16K of space, which adds up when there are thousands of them. I intend to change localbuf.c to aggregate its requests, which will prevent this particular misbehavior, but it seems likely that similar scenarios could arise elsewhere, so fixing the core problem seems wise as well.
* Print combining characters (those reported as having zero width byTom Lane2006-12-27
| | | | | | PQdsplen()) normally, instead of replacing them by \uXXXX sequences. Assume that they in fact occupy zero screen space for formatting purposes. Per gripe from Michael Fuhr and ensuing discussion.
* Fix failure due to accessing an already-freed tuple descriptor in a planTom Lane2006-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | involving HashAggregate over SubqueryScan (this is the known case, there may well be more). The bug is only latent in releases before 8.2 since they didn't try to access tupletable slots' descriptors during ExecDropTupleTable. The least bogus fix seems to be to make subqueries share the parent query's memory context, so that tupdescs they create will have the same lifespan as those of the parent query. There are comments in the code envisioning going even further by not having a separate child EState at all, but that will require rethinking executor access to range tables, which I don't want to tackle right now. Per bug report from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.
* Repair bug #2839: the various ExecReScan functions need to resetTom Lane2006-12-26
| | | | | | | | | ps_TupFromTlist in plan nodes that make use of it. This was being done correctly in join nodes and Result nodes but not in any relation-scan nodes. Bug would lead to bogus results if a set-returning function appeared in the targetlist of a subquery that could be rescanned after partial execution, for example a subquery within EXISTS(). Bug has been around forever :-( ... surprising it wasn't reported before.
* Repair bug #2836: SPI_execute_plan returned zero if none of the querytreesTom Lane2006-12-26
| | | | | | | | | were marked canSetTag. While it's certainly correct to return the result of the last one that is marked canSetTag, it's less clear what to do when none of them are. Since plpgsql will complain if zero is returned, the 8.2.0 behavior isn't good. I've fixed it to restore the prior behavior of returning the physically last query's result code when there are no canSetTag queries.
* Make HISTCONTROL=ignoredups work again (broken by misordering ofTom Lane2006-12-24
| | | | operations during recent code refactoring). Per bug #2840 from Ned Crigler.
* Bring some order and sanity to error handling in the xml patch.Tom Lane2006-12-24
| | | | | | | | | | | Use a TRY block instead of (inadequate) ad-hoc coding to ensure that libxml is cleaned up after a failure. Report the intended SQLCODE instead of defaulting to XX000. Avoid risking use of a dangling pointer by keeping the persistent error buffer in TopMemoryContext. Be less trusting that error messages don't contain %. This patch doesn't do anything about changing the way the messages are put together --- this is just about mechanism.
* Fix machine-dependent crash in sqlchar_to_unicode(). Get rid ofTom Lane2006-12-24
| | | | | | | bletcherous and unsafe manipulation of global encoding setting. Clean up libxml reporting mechanism a bit (it still looks like a dangling-pointer crash waiting to happen, though, not to mention being far less than sane from a localization standpoint).
* Code review for XML patch. Instill a bit of sanity in the location ofTom Lane2006-12-24
| | | | | | | the XmlExpr code in various lists, use a representation that has some hope of reverse-listing correctly (though it's still a de-escaping function shy of correctness), generally try to make it look more like Postgres coding conventions.

* Restructure operator classes to allow improved handling of cross-data-typeTom Lane2006-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible. Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally. This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also, there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.
