to make it easier to reuse that code. There is no user-visible changes.
This is in preparation for the patch to add a new archive format, a directory,
to perform a custom-like dump but with each table being dumped to a separate
file (that in turn is a prerequisite for parallel pg_dump). This also makes it
easier to add new compression methods in the future, and makes the
pg_backup_custom.c code easier to read, when the compression-related code is
factored out.
Joachim Wieland, with heavy editorialization by me.
There were corner cases in which the planner would attempt to inline such
a function, which would result in a failure at runtime due to loss of
information about exactly what the result record type is. Fix by disabling
inlining when the function's recorded result type is RECORD. There might
be some sub-cases where inlining could still be allowed, but this is a
simple and backpatchable fix, so leave refinements for another day.
Per bug #5777 from Nate Carson.
Back-patch to all supported branches. 8.1 happens to avoid a core-dump
here, but it still does the wrong thing.
Formerly we looked up the operators associated with each index (caching
them in relcache) and then the planner looked up the btree opfamily
containing such operators in order to build the btree-centric pathkey
representation that describes the index's sort order. This is quite
pointless for btree indexes: we might as well just use the index's opfamily
information directly. That saves syscache lookup cycles during planning,
and furthermore allows us to eliminate the relcache's caching of operators
altogether, which may help in reducing backend startup time.
I added code to plancat.c to perform the same type of double lookup
on-the-fly if it's ever faced with a non-btree amcanorder index AM.
If such a thing actually becomes interesting for production, we should
replace that logic with some more-direct method for identifying the
corresponding btree opfamily; but it's not worth spending effort on now.
There is considerably more to do pursuant to my recent proposal to get rid
of sort-operator-based representations of sort orderings, but this patch
grabs some of the low-hanging fruit. I'll look at the remainder of that
work after the current commitfest.
removing an infrequently occurring race condition in Hot Standby.
An xid must be assigned before a lock appears in shared memory,
rather than immediately after, else GetRunningTransactionLocks()
may see InvalidTransactionId, causing assertion failures during
lock processing on standby.
Bug report and diagnosis by Fujii Masao, fix by me.
Basically, we want to distinguish all cases where the connection was
not made from those where it was. A convenient proxy for this is to
see if we got a message with a SQLSTATE code back from the postmaster.
This presumes that the postmaster will always send us a SQLSTATE in
a failure message, which is true for 7.4 and later postmasters in
every case except fork failure. (We could possibly complicate the
postmaster code to do something about that, but it seems not worth
the trouble, especially since pg_ctl's response for that case should
be to keep waiting anyway.)
If we did get a SQLSTATE from the postmaster, there are basically only
two cases, as per last week's discussion: ERRCODE_CANNOT_CONNECT_NOW
and everything else. Any other error code implies that the postmaster
is in principle willing to accept connections, it just didn't like or
couldn't handle this particular request. We want to make a special
case for ERRCODE_CANNOT_CONNECT_NOW so that "pg_ctl start -w" knows
it should keep waiting.
In passing, pick names for the enum constants that are a tad less
likely to present collision hazards in future.
1. Don't #include postgres.h in a frontend build.
2. Don't assume that the backend's symbol PGSQL_AF_INET6 has anything to do
with the constant that will be used by system library functions (because,
in point of fact, it usually doesn't). Fortunately, PGSQL_AF_INET is equal
to AF_INET, so we can just cater for both sets of values in one case
construct without fear of conflict.
This adds support for changing the schema of a conversion, operator,
operator class, operator family, text search configuration, text search
dictionary, text search parser, or text search template.
Dimitri Fontaine, with assorted corrections and other kibitzing.
Most of the functions that execute XPath queries leaked the data structures
created by libxml2. This memory would not be recovered until end of
session, so it mounts up pretty quickly in any serious use of the feature.
Per report from Pavel Stehule, though this isn't his patch.
Back-patch to all supported branches.
status, including a status where the server is running but refuses a
postgres connection.
Have pg_ctl use this new function. This fixes the case where pg_ctl
reports that the server is not running (cannot connect) but in fact it
is running.
After a SQL object is created, we provide an opportunity for security
or logging plugins to get control; for example, a security label provider
could use this to assign an initial security label to newly created
objects. The basic infrastructure is (hopefully) reusable for other types
of events that might require similar treatment.
KaiGai Kohei, with minor adjustments.
Forcibly releasing all leftover buffer pins should be unnecessary now
that we have a robust ResourceOwner mechanism, and it significantly
increases the cost of process shutdown. Instead, in an assert-enabled
build, assert that no pins are held; in a non-assert-enabled build, do
nothing.
supplied, also print the IP address. This allows IPv4 and IPv6 failures
to be distinguished. Also useful when a hostname resolves to multiple
IP addresses.
Also, remove use of inet_ntoa() and use our own inet_net_ntop() in all
places, including in libpq, because it is thread-safe.
This commit adds columns amoppurpose and amopsortfamily to pg_amop, and
column amcanorderbyop to pg_am. For the moment all the entries in
amcanorderbyop are "false", since the underlying support isn't there yet.
Also, extend the CREATE OPERATOR CLASS/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands with
[ FOR SEARCH | FOR ORDER BY sort_operator_family ] clauses to allow the new
columns of pg_amop to be populated, and create pg_dump support for dumping
that information.
I also added some documentation, although it's perhaps a bit premature
given that the feature doesn't do anything useful yet.

Also, move index entries into the tables, closer to the function description,
for easier editing in the future. Resort some tables to be more alphabetical.
Remove the entries for count, max, min, and sum in the tutorial area, because
that was felt to be confusing.

Any flavor of ALTER <whatever> .. SET SCHEMA fails if (1) the object
is already in the new schema, (2) either the old or new schema is
a temp schema, or (3) either the old or new schema is the TOAST schema.
Extraced from a patch by Dimitri Fontaine, with additional hacking by me.
Currently, three conversion format specifiers are supported: %s for a
string, %L for an SQL literal, and %I for an SQL identifier. The latter
two are deliberately designed not to overlap with what sprintf() already
supports, in case we want to add more of sprintf()'s functionality here
later.
Patch by Pavel Stehule, heavily revised by me. Reviewed by Jeff Janes
and, in earlier versions, by Itagaki Takahiro and Tom Lane.
We no longer need the terminating zero entry in opfamily[], so get rid of
it. Also replace assorted ad-hoc looping logic with simple for and foreach
constructs. This code is now noticeably more readable than it was an hour
ago; credit to Robert for seeing that it could be simplified.
