Tom Lane	9bedd128d6	Add support for invoking parser callback hooks via SPI and in cached plans. ... As proof of concept, modify plpgsql to use the hooks. plpgsql is still inserting $n symbols textually, but the "back end" of the parsing process now goes through the ParamRef hook instead of using a fixed parameter-type array, and then execution only fetches actually-referenced parameters, using a hook added to ParamListInfo. Although there's a lot left to be done in plpgsql, this already cures the "if (TG_OP = 'INSERT' and NEW.foo ...)" problem, as illustrated by the changed regression test.	16 years ago
Tom Lane	9f2ee8f287	Re-implement EvalPlanQual processing to improve its performance and eliminate ... a lot of strange behaviors that occurred in join cases. We now identify the "current" row for every joined relation in UPDATE, DELETE, and SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE queries. If an EvalPlanQual recheck is necessary, we jam the appropriate row into each scan node in the rechecking plan, forcing it to emit only that one row. The former behavior could rescan the whole of each joined relation for each recheck, which was terrible for performance, and what's much worse could result in duplicated output tuples. Also, the original implementation of EvalPlanQual could not re-use the recheck execution tree --- it had to go through a full executor init and shutdown for every row to be tested. To avoid this overhead, I've associated a special runtime Param with each LockRows or ModifyTable plan node, and arranged to make every scan node below such a node depend on that Param. Thus, by signaling a change in that Param, the EPQ machinery can just rescan the already-built test plan. This patch also adds a prohibition on set-returning functions in the targetlist of SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE. This is needed to avoid the duplicate-output-tuple problem. It seems fairly reasonable since the other restrictions on SELECT FOR UPDATE are meant to ensure that there is a unique correspondence between source tuples and result tuples, which an output SRF destroys as much as anything else does.	16 years ago
Tom Lane	0adaf4cb31	Move the handling of SELECT FOR UPDATE locking and rechecking out of ... execMain.c and into a new plan node type LockRows. Like the recent change to put table updating into a ModifyTable plan node, this increases planning flexibility by allowing the operations to occur below the top level of the plan tree. It's necessary in any case to restore the previous behavior of having FOR UPDATE locking occur before ModifyTable does. This partially refactors EvalPlanQual to allow multiple rows-under-test to be inserted into the EPQ machinery before starting an EPQ test query. That isn't sufficient to fix EPQ's general bogosity in the face of plans that return multiple rows per test row, though. Since this patch is mostly about getting some plan node infrastructure in place and not about fixing ten-year-old bugs, I will leave EPQ improvements for another day. Another behavioral change that we could now think about is doing FOR UPDATE before LIMIT, but that too seems like it should be treated as a followon patch.	16 years ago

Tom Lane	18004101ac	Modify UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF to use the FOR UPDATE infrastructure to ... locate the target row, if the cursor was declared with FOR UPDATE or FOR SHARE. This approach is more flexible and reliable than digging through the plan tree; for instance it can cope with join cursors. But we still provide the old code for use with non-FOR-UPDATE cursors. Per gripe from Robert Haas.	17 years ago
Alvaro Herrera	f8c4d7db60	Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing some ... unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.	18 years ago
Tom Lane	220db7ccd8	Simplify and standardize conversions between TEXT datums and ordinary C ... strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text, cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed. Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin, and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though). This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few places where it was easy, but much more could be done. Brendan Jurd and Tom Lane	18 years ago

Tom Lane	a9545b3aef	Improve UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF so that they can be used from plpgsql ... with a plpgsql-defined cursor. The underlying mechanism for this is that the main SQL engine will now take "WHERE CURRENT OF $n" where $n is a refcursor parameter. Not sure if we should document that fact or consider it an implementation detail. Per discussion with Pavel Stehule.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	6808f1b1de	Support UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF cursor_name, per SQL standard. ... Along the way, allow FOR UPDATE in non-WITH-HOLD cursors; there may once have been a reason to disallow that, but it seems to work now, and it's really rather necessary if you want to select a row via a cursor and then update it in a concurrent-safe fashion. Original patch by Arul Shaji, rather heavily editorialized by Tom Lane.	19 years ago
