connection shutdown. This is a grotty workaround for a Tcl bug, but
said bug has been there long enough that I'm not holding my breath
for a real fix. Per discussions and testing from ljb and g.hintermayer.
bison 1.875 and later as we did from earlier bison releases. Eventually
we will probably want to adopt the newer message spelling ... but not yet.
Per recent discussion on pgpatches.
Note: I didn't change the build rules for bootstrap, ecpg, or plpgsql
grammars, since these do not affect regression test results.
for type 'time without time zone', as we already did for type
'timestamp without time zone'. This patch was proposed by Tom Lockhart
on 7-Nov-02, but he never got around to applying it. Adjust regression
tests and documentation to match.
cannot actually happen at present because ArrayCount() is only called
on strings beginning with '{', but seems best to prevent it going forward.
Per report from Yichen Xie.
value of MAX_TIME_PRECISION in floating-point-timestamp-storage case
from 13 to 10, which is as much as time_out is actually willing to print.
(The alternative of increasing the number of digits we are willing to
print looks risky; we might find ourselves printing roundoff garbage.)
passed to join selectivity estimators. Make use of this in eqjoinsel
to derive non-bogus selectivity for IN clauses. Further tweaking of
cost estimation for IN.
initdb forced because of pg_proc.h changes.
Try to model the effect of rescanning input tuples in mergejoins;
account for JOIN_IN short-circuiting where appropriate. Also, recognize
that mergejoin and hashjoin clauses may now be more than single operator
calls, so we have to charge appropriate execution costs.
necessarily following the JOIN syntax to develop the query plan. The old
behavior is still available by setting GUC variable JOIN_COLLAPSE_LIMIT
to 1. Also create a GUC variable FROM_COLLAPSE_LIMIT to control the
similar decision about when to collapse sub-SELECT lists into their parent
lists. (This behavior existed already, but the limit was always
GEQO_THRESHOLD/2; now it's separately adjustable.)
of the socket file and socket lock file; this should prevent both of them
from being removed by even the stupidest varieties of /tmp-cleaning
script. Per suggestion from Giles Lean.
rather than actually opening the files. This eliminates some corner cases
where the file indeed exists but open() fails for another reason, such
as being out of file descriptors. The net reliability gain is probably
tiny, since xlog.c is full of other file open calls that will elog(PANIC)
if they fail for any reason; but this specific failure mode has been
observed in the field, so we may as well fix it.
of known-equal expressions includes any constant expressions (including
Params from outer queries), we actively suppress any 'var = var'
clauses that are or could be deduced from the set, generating only the
deducible 'var = const' clauses instead. The idea here is to push down
the restrictions implied by the equality set to base relations whenever
possible. Once we have applied the 'var = const' clauses, the 'var = var'
clauses are redundant, and should be suppressed both to save work at
execution and to avoid double-counting restrictivity.
that's selecting into a RECORD variable returns zero rows, make it
assign an all-nulls row to the RECORD; this is consistent with what
happens when the SELECT INTO target is not a RECORD. In support of
this, tweak the SPI code so that a valid tuple descriptor is returned
even when a SPI select returns no rows.
There are two implementation techniques: the executor understands a new
JOIN_IN jointype, which emits at most one matching row per left-hand row,
or the result of the IN's sub-select can be fed through a DISTINCT filter
and then joined as an ordinary relation.
Along the way, some minor code cleanup in the optimizer; notably, break
out most of the jointree-rearrangement preprocessing in planner.c and
put it in a new file prep/prepjointree.c.
that used to do it in planner. That was an ancient kluge that was
never satisfactory; errors should be detected at parse time when possible.
But at the time we didn't have the support mechanism (expression_tree_walker
et al) to make it convenient to do in the parser.
simplify callers. It turns out the common case is that the caller
does want to recurse into sub-queries, so push support for that into
these subroutines.
datetime token tables. Even more embarrassing, the regression tests
revealed some of the problems --- but evidently the bogus output wasn't
questioned. Add code to postmaster startup to directly check the tables
for correct ordering, in hopes of not being embarrassed like this again.
join_references(), it's practical to consolidate all join_references()
processing into the set_plan_references traversal in setrefs.c. This
seems considerably cleaner than the old way where we did it for join
quals in createplan.c and for targetlists in setrefs.c.
