Tom Lane	95f6d2d209	Make use of plancache module for SPI plans. In particular, since plpgsql ... uses SPI plans, this finally fixes the ancient gotcha that you can't drop and recreate a temp table used by a plpgsql function. Along the way, clean up SPI's API a little bit by declaring SPI plan pointers as "SPIPlanPtr" instead of "void *". This is cosmetic but helps to forestall simple programming mistakes. (I have changed some but not all of the callers to match; there are still some "void *"'s in contrib and the PL's. This is intentional so that we can see if anyone's compiler complains about it.)	19 years ago
Tom Lane	0169c354bf	Arrange to install a "posixrules" entry in our timezone database, so that ... POSIX-style timezone specs that don't exactly match any database entry will be treated as having correct USA DST rules. Also, document that this can be changed if you want to use some other DST rules with a POSIX zone spec. We could consider changing localtime.c's TZDEFRULESTRING, but since that facility can only deal with one DST transition rule, it seems fairly useless now; might as well just plan to override it using a "posixrules" entry. Backpatch as far as 8.0. There isn't much we can do in 7.x ... either your libc gets it right, or it doesn't.	19 years ago

Tom Lane	fb276438b6	Suppress useless searches for unused line pointers in PageAddItem. To do ... this, add a 16-bit "flags" field to page headers by stealing some bits from pd_tli. We use one flag bit as a hint to indicate whether there are any unused line pointers; the remaining 15 are available for future use. This is a cut-down form of an idea proposed by Hiroki Kataoka in July 2005. At the time it was rejected because the original patch increased the size of page headers and it wasn't clear that the benefit outweighed the distributed cost. The flag-bit approach gets most of the benefit without requiring an increase in the page header size. Heikki Linnakangas and Tom Lane	19 years ago

Tom Lane	234a02b2a8	Replace direct assignments to VARATT_SIZEP(x) with SET_VARSIZE(x, len). ... Get rid of VARATT_SIZE and VARATT_DATA, which were simply redundant with VARSIZE and VARDATA, and as a consequence almost no code was using the longer names. Rename the length fields of struct varlena and various derived structures to catch anyplace that was accessing them directly; and clean up various places so caught. In itself this patch doesn't change any behavior at all, but it is necessary infrastructure if we hope to play any games with the representation of varlena headers.

Tom Lane	eab6b8b27e	Turn the rangetable used by the executor into a flat list, and avoid storing ... useless substructure for its RangeTblEntry nodes. (I chose to keep using the same struct node type and just zero out the link fields for unneeded info, rather than making a separate ExecRangeTblEntry type --- it seemed too fragile to have two different rangetable representations.) Along the way, put subplans into a list in the toplevel PlannedStmt node, and have SubPlan nodes refer to them by list index instead of direct pointers. Vadim wanted to do that years ago, but I never understood what he was on about until now. It makes things a *whole* lot more robust, because we can stop worrying about duplicate processing of subplans during expression tree traversals. That's been a constant source of bugs, and it's finally gone. There are some consequent simplifications yet to be made, like not using a separate EState for subplans in the executor, but I'll tackle that later.	19 years ago
