Tom Lane	21734d2fb8	Support writable foreign tables. This patch adds the core-system infrastructure needed to support updates on foreign tables, and extends contrib/postgres_fdw to allow updates against remote Postgres servers. There's still a great deal of room for improvement in optimization of remote updates, but at least there's basic functionality there now.

Tom Lane	c0c6acdfa0	Fix some planning oversights in postgres_fdw. Include eval costs of local conditions in remote-estimate mode, and don't assume the remote eval cost is zero in local-estimate mode. (The best we can do with that at the moment is to assume a seqscan, which may well be wildly pessimistic ... but zero won't do at all.) To get a reasonable local estimate, we need to know the relpages count for the remote rel, so improve the ANALYZE code to fetch that rather than just setting the foreign table's relpages field to zero.	13 years ago
Tom Lane	d0d75c4022	Add postgres_fdw contrib module. There's still a lot of room for improvement, but it basically works, and we need this to be present before we can do anything much with the writable-foreign-tables patch. So let's commit it and get on with testing. Shigeru Hanada, reviewed by KaiGai Kohei and Tom Lane	13 years ago

Support writable foreign tables.

This patch adds the core-system infrastructure needed to support updates
on foreign tables, and extends contrib/postgres_fdw to allow updates
against remote Postgres servers.  There's still a great deal of room for
improvement in optimization of remote updates, but at least there's basic
functionality there now.

Fix some planning oversights in postgres_fdw.

Include eval costs of local conditions in remote-estimate mode, and don't
assume the remote eval cost is zero in local-estimate mode.  (The best
we can do with that at the moment is to assume a seqscan, which may well
be wildly pessimistic ... but zero won't do at all.)

To get a reasonable local estimate, we need to know the relpages count
for the remote rel, so improve the ANALYZE code to fetch that rather
than just setting the foreign table's relpages field to zero.

Add postgres_fdw contrib module.

There's still a lot of room for improvement, but it basically works,
and we need this to be present before we can do anything much with the
writable-foreign-tables patch.  So let's commit it and get on with testing.
