  • 376784cf8a Repair erroneous use of hashvarlena() for MACADDR, which is not a varlena type. (I did not force initdb, but you won't see the fix unless you do one.) Also, make sure all index support operators and functions are careful not to leak memory for toasted inputs; I had missed some hash and rtree support ops on this point before.

  • fb47385fc8 Resurrect -F switch: it controls fsyncs again, though the fsyncs are mostly just on the WAL logfile nowadays. But if people want to disable fsync for performance, why should we say no? Tom Lane 2000-12-08 22:21:33 +00:00

  • 90bdb64be8 Add missing copyright and RCS identification header. Tom Lane 2000-12-08 20:10:19 +00:00
  • b44e46cfce Remove error check that disallowed setval() on a sequence with cache value greater than one. The behavior this sought to disallow doesn't seem any less confusing than the other behaviors of cached sequences. Improve wording of some error messages, too. Update documentation accordingly. Also add an explanation that aborted transactions do not roll back their nextval() calls; this seems to be a FAQ, so it ought to be mentioned here... Tom Lane 2000-12-08 20:06:58 +00:00

  • cbc5f4f127 checkretval() failed to cope with an empty SQL function body. Tom Lane 2000-12-07 19:40:56 +00:00
  • 821f4673ff Make OVERLAPS operators conform to SQL92 spec regarding NULL handling. As I read it, the spec requires a non-null result in some cases where one of the inputs is NULL: specifically, if the other endpoint of that interval is between the endpoints of the other interval, then the result is known TRUE despite the missing endpoint. The spec could've been a lot simpler if they did not intend this behavior. I did not force an initdb for this change, but if you don't do one you'll still see the old strict-function behavior.

  • 7711e40b9f Make application of FOR UPDATE to a view work exactly like the parser's transformForUpdate does: it should recurse into subqueries. Tom Lane 2000-12-07 01:22:25 +00:00
  • 0a844e84a1 transformForUpdate() mustn't assume rowMarks list is initially empty. It could be recursing into a sub-query where there was already a FOR UPDATE clause. Tom Lane 2000-12-07 01:12:08 +00:00
  • 73d2a3595a Clean up handling of FOR UPDATE inside views and subselects ... make it work where we can (given that the executor only handles it at top level) and generate an error where we can't. Note that while the parser has been allowing views to say SELECT FOR UPDATE for a few weeks now, that hasn't actually worked until just now. Tom Lane 2000-12-06 23:55:19 +00:00

  • 5fb1022212 Don't include miscadmin.h in elog.h, since the former is not part of the installed header file set. Tom Lane 2000-12-06 17:25:46 +00:00
  • a0f863637f I've just seen what happens when the MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING code fires an error at end of transaction ... and I did *not* like it. Reduce ERROR to NOTICE so that this situation doesn't cause an infinite loop. Tom Lane 2000-12-05 23:40:36 +00:00
  • 614d951a54 In SELECT FOR UPDATE, silently ignore null CTIDs, rather than generating 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. Tom Lane 2000-12-05 22:03:57 +00:00
  • 981a7d32d1 From Stephan Szabo: I believe this should fix the issue that Philip Warner noticed about the check for unique constraints meeting the referenced keys of a foreign key constraint allowing the specification of a subset of a foreign key instead of rejecting it. I also added tests for a base case of this to the foreign key and alter table tests and patches for expected output. Tom Lane 2000-12-05 19:57:56 +00:00
  • 5ce8ab96f5 Add regress test case for INSERT ... SELECT in rules. Tom Lane 2000-12-05 19:15:49 +00:00
  • a51f004d29 Repair breakage of rules containing INSERT ... SELECT actions, per bug 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 :-( Tom Lane 2000-12-05 19:15:10 +00:00
  • d9466046c0 Fix bogus makefiles ... these didn't build on platforms that are sticky about being given accurate references to referenced libraries ... REL7_1_BETA Tom Lane 2000-12-04 01:32:19 +00:00

  • 6969b8fa11 Repair usage of the OVERLAPS operator. Allow some operator-like tokens to be used as function names. Flesh out support for time, timetz, and interval operators and interactions. Regression tests pass, but non-reference-platform horology test results will need to be updated. Thomas G. Lockhart 2000-12-03 14:51:12 +00:00

  • 5e3bc5ebcd Avoid memory leakage during regular COPY when outputting toasted values. COPY BINARY is still broken for toasted data, however. Tom Lane 2000-12-02 20:49:24 +00:00
  • 77698e11a9 Avoid repeated detoasting (and possible memory leaks) when processing a toasted datum in VACUUM ANALYZE. Tom Lane 2000-12-02 19:38:34 +00:00
  • 079c60abc0 Don't cause --enable-cassert to define COPY_PARSE_PLAN_TREES automatically anymore. That won't teach us anything new for the rest of this release cycle, so it seems better to keep the --assert environment more like the non-assert environment for beta. I'm going to leave CLOBBER_FREED_MEMORY and MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING turned on by --enable-cassert for now, however. Tom Lane 2000-12-02 18:16:40 +00:00
  • 217d1566bf Make tuple receive/print routines TOAST-aware. Formerly, printtup would leak memory when printing a toasted attribute, and printtup_internal didn't work at all... Tom Lane 2000-12-01 22:10:31 +00:00
  • f5371feef9 Fix inadequate tree-walking code in exec_eval_clear_fcache. Tom Lane 2000-12-01 20:43:59 +00:00
  • 08ede423d1 Make elog() switch to ErrorContext while invoking libpq output routines, since those routines may do palloc's. We want to be fairly sure we can send the error message to the client even under low-memory conditions. That's what we stashed away 8K in ErrorContext for, after all ... Tom Lane 2000-12-01 19:52:04 +00:00
  • a49436d7e9 Pursuant to a pghackers discussion back around 11-Jul-00, get rid of aset.c's not-very-good handling of mid-size allocation requests. Do everything via either the "small" case (chunk size rounded up to power of 2) or the "large" case (pass it straight off to malloc()). Increase the number of freelists a little to set the breakpoint between these behaviors at 8K. Tom Lane 2000-12-01 18:14:29 +00:00
  • eb743d0f98 It seems appropriate that the extended MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING code immediately uncovered three of Karel's own bugs, including a routine that scribbled on its input (naughty naughty!) Tom Lane 2000-12-01 05:17:19 +00:00
  • dd2b56d623 Clean up MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING code, and apply it more thoroughly. Also, apply Karel Zak's patch to recycle residual space in an exhausted allocation block. (Bet you thought I'd forgot about that, Karel?) Tom Lane 2000-12-01 05:16:45 +00:00
  • b7c3784417 Repair residual sillinesses from UUNET virtual host/socket path patch. I hope all the dust has settled out now ... Tom Lane 2000-11-30 23:20:51 +00:00
  • 73d0514dea Make default socket directory location configurable from config.h. If we're going to let it be run-time configurable, might as well allow this too... Tom Lane 2000-11-30 23:19:04 +00:00

  • b73ecebf05 Remove obsolete claim that char(n) is more efficient than other text types. Tom Lane 2000-11-30 18:46:42 +00:00
  • 1f5cc8c78a Remove VARLENA_FIXED_SIZE hack, which is irreversibly broken now that both MULTIBYTE and TOAST prevent char(n) from being truly fixed-size. Simplify and speed up fastgetattr() and index_getattr() macros by eliminating special cases for attnum=1. It's just as fast to handle the first attribute by presetting its attcacheoff to zero; so do that instead when loading the tupledesc in relcache.c. Tom Lane 2000-11-30 18:38:47 +00:00
  • 59a9735fc8 Sort out things after fe-connect.c cleanup after unix socket patch. Peter Eisentraut 2000-11-30 18:34:36 +00:00
  • ef54e0d08e Remove remaining unixsocket-setting interfaces, since the host parameter does that. Disable URL-style connection parameter specification code, which doesn't work. Peter Eisentraut 2000-11-30 18:32:52 +00:00
  • 81c8c244b2 No more #ifdef XLOG. Vadim B. Mikheev 2000-11-30 08:46:26 +00:00

  • 741510521c XLOG stuff for sequences. CommitDelay in guc.c Vadim B. Mikheev 2000-11-30 01:47:33 +00:00
  • 680b7357ce Rearrange bufmgr header files so that buf_internals.h need not be included by everything that includes bufmgr.h --- it's supposed to be internals, after all, not part of the API! This fixes the conflict against FreeBSD headers reported by Rosenman, by making it unnecessary for s_lock.h to be included by plperl.c. Tom Lane 2000-11-30 01:39:08 +00:00
  • 9f20852f87 all options are allowed if not under postmaster: Vadim B. Mikheev 2000-11-30 01:27:19 +00:00
  • 3c0f3c9a7e Just noticed that with -S switch, MyProcPid is permanently wrong in postmaster, because it isn't updated after forking away from the terminal. Apparently it's not used anyplace in the postmaster ... but seems best to make it show the correct PID ... Tom Lane 2000-11-29 22:04:04 +00:00
  • 792b0f4666 Get rid of not-very-portable fcntl(F_SETLK) mechanism for locking the Unix socket file, in favor of having an ordinary lockfile beside the socket file. Clean up a few robustness problems in the lockfile code. If postmaster is going to reject a connection request based on database state, it will now tell you so before authentication exchange not after. (Of course, a failure after is still possible if conditions change meanwhile, but this makes life easier for a yet-to-be-written pg_ping utility.) Tom Lane 2000-11-29 20:59:54 +00:00
  • 1efd7330cb Rewrite system catalog documentation man page in DocBook with more recent information. Peter Eisentraut 2000-11-29 20:15:59 +00:00
  • 175f52083b aclitemout() shouldn't coredump when it finds an ACL item for a now-vanished group. Instead, display the numeric group ID, same as it does for vanished users. Tom Lane 2000-11-28 23:42:31 +00:00
  • c715fdea26 Significant cleanups in SysV IPC handling (shared mem and semaphores). IPC key assignment will now work correctly even when multiple postmasters are using same logical port number (which is possible given -k switch). There is only one shared-mem segment per postmaster now, not 3. Rip out broken code for non-TAS case in bufmgr and xlog, substitute a complete S_LOCK emulation using semaphores in spin.c. TAS and non-TAS logic is now exactly the same. When deadlock is detected, "Deadlock detected" is now the elog(ERROR) message, rather than a NOTICE that comes out before an unhelpful ERROR.
