computation: reduce the bucket number mod nbatch. This changes the
association between original bucket numbers and batches, but that
doesn't matter. Minor other cleanups in hashjoin code to help
centralize decisions.
allocation in best_inner_indexscan(). While at it, simplify GEQO's
interface to the main planner --- make_join_rel() offers exactly the
API it really wants, whereas calling make_rels_by_clause_joins() and
make_rels_by_clauseless_joins() required jumping through hoops.
Rewrite gimme_tree for clarity (sometimes iteration is much better than
recursion), and approximately halve GEQO's runtime by recognizing that
tours of the forms (a,b,c,d,...) and (b,a,c,d,...) are equivalent
because of symmetry in make_join_rel().
disallowed by CREATE TABLE (eg, pseudo-types); also disallow these types
from being introduced by the range-function syntax. While at it, allow
CREATE TABLE to create zero-column tables, per recent pghackers discussion.
I am back-patching this into 7.3 since failure to disallow pseudo-types
is arguably a security hole.
practice of evaluating MemSet's arguments multiple times, except for
the special case of newNode(), where we can assume the argument is
a constant sizeof() operator.
Also, add GetMemoryChunkContext() to mcxt.c's API, in preparation for
fixing recent GEQO breakage.
given any malloc block until something is first allocated in it; but
thereafter, MemoryContextReset won't release that first malloc block.
This preserves the quick-reset property of the original policy, without
forcing 8K to be allocated to every context whether any of it is ever
used or not. Also, remove some more no-longer-needed explicit freeing
during ExecEndPlan.
a per-query memory context created by CreateExecutorState --- and destroyed
by FreeExecutorState. This provides a final solution to the longstanding
problem of memory leaked by various ExecEndNode calls.
in the planned representation of a subplan at all any more, only SubPlan.
This means subselect.c doesn't scribble on its input anymore, which seems
like a good thing; and there are no longer three different possible
interpretations of a SubLink. Simplify node naming and improve comments
in primnodes.h. No change to stored rules, though.
execution state trees, and ExecEvalExpr takes an expression state tree
not an expression plan tree. The plan tree is now read-only as far as
the executor is concerned. Next step is to begin actually exploiting
this property.
* Add schema, cast, and conversion backslash commands to psql
I had to create a new publically available function,
pg_conversion_is_visible, as it seemed to be missing from the catalogs.
This required me to do no small amount of hacking around in namespace.c
I have updated the \? help and sgml docs.
\dc - list conversions [PATTERN]
\dC - list casts
\dn list schemas
I didn't support patterns with casts as there's nothing obvious to match
against.
Catalog version incremented --- initdb required.

make VALUE a non-reserved word again, use less invasive method of passing
ConstraintTestValue into transformExpr, fix problems with nested constraint
testing, do correct thing with NULL result from a constraint expression,
remove memory leak. Domain checks still need much more work if we are going
to allow ALTER DOMAIN, however.
so that all executable expression nodes inherit from a common supertype
Expr. This is somewhat of an exercise in code purity rather than any
real functional advance, but getting rid of the extra Oper or Func node
formerly used in each operator or function call should provide at least
a little space and speed improvement.
initdb forced by changes in stored-rules representation.

to not require a specific proposal on the hackers list -- but if not, let me
know and I'll make a pitch. Otherwise, if there are no objections please apply.

postgresql version 7.3, but yea... this patch adds full IPv6
support to postgres. I've tested it out on 7.2.3 and has
been running perfectly stable.

to plan nodes, not vice-versa. All executor state nodes now inherit from
struct PlanState. Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not
storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links).
The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during
ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway.
No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you
will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.
('SELECT expression') inline, like macros, during the constant-folding
phase of planning. The actual expansion is not difficult, but checking
that we're not changing the semantics of the call turns out to be more
subtle than one might think; in particular must pay attention to
permissions issues, strictness, and volatility.
well as function calls. This is needed for cases where the planner has
constant-folded or inlined the original function call. Possibly we should
back-patch this change into 7.3 branch as well.

be optimized into 'x = 42' (!!), cause dependency on = operator to be

instead of only one. This should speed up planning (only one hash path
to consider for a given pair of relations) as well as allow more effective
hashing, when there are multiple hashable joinclauses.
operations: make sure we use operators that are compatible, as determined
by a mergejoin link in pg_operator. Also, add code to planner to ensure
we don't try to use hashed grouping when the grouping operators aren't
marked hashable.

just done for copyfuncs/equalfuncs. Read functions in particular get
a lot shorter than before, and it's much easier to compare an out function
with the corresponding read function to make sure they agree.
initdb forced due to small changes in nodestring format (regularizing
a few cases that were formerly idiosyncratic).
joinclauses is determined accurately for each join. Formerly, the code only
considered joinclauses that used all of the rels from the outer side of the
join; thus for example
FROM (a CROSS JOIN b) JOIN c ON (c.f1 = a.x AND c.f2 = b.y)
could not exploit a two-column index on c(f1,f2), since neither of the
qual clauses would be in the joininfo list it looked in. The new code does
this correctly, and also is able to eliminate redundant clauses, thus fixing
the problem noted 24-Oct-02 by Hans-Jürgen Schönig.
-hackers a couple days ago.
Notes/caveats:
- added regression tests for the new functionality, all
regression tests pass on my machine
- added pg_dump support
- updated PL/PgSQL to support per-statement triggers; didn't
look at the other procedural languages.
- there's (even) more code duplication in trigger.c than there
was previously. Any suggestions on how to refactor the
ExecXXXTriggers() functions to reuse more code would be
welcome -- I took a brief look at it, but couldn't see an
easy way to do it (there are several subtly-different
versions of the code in question)
- updated the documentation. I also took the liberty of
removing a big chunk of duplicated syntax documentation in
the Programmer's Guide on triggers, and moving that
information to the CREATE TRIGGER reference page.
- I also included some spelling fixes and similar small
cleanups I noticed while making the changes. If you'd like
me to split those into a separate patch, let me know.

one more row from the subplan than the COUNT would appear to require.
This costs a little more logic but a number of people have complained
about the old implementation.

Add ORDER BY clauses to a bunch of regression test queries that will

of groups produced by GROUP BY. This improves the accuracy of planning
estimates for grouped subselects, and is needed to check whether a
hashed aggregation plan risks memory overflow.
- CLUSTER ALL clusters all the tables that have some index with
indisclustered set and the calling user owns.
- CLUSTER tablename clusters the named table, using the index with
indisclustered set. If no index has the bit set, throws elog(ERROR).
- The multi-relation version (CLUSTER ALL) uses a multitransaction
approach, similar to what VACUUM does.
