Tom Lane 140b078d2a Improve LockAcquire API per my recent proposal. All error conditions
are now reported via elog, eliminating the need to test the result code
at most call sites.  Make it possible for the caller to distinguish a
freshly acquired lock from one already held in the current transaction.
Use that capability to avoid redundant AcceptInvalidationMessages() calls
in LockRelation().

Tom Lane 299c442077 Make superuser.c maintain a simple one-entry cache holding the superuser
status of the most recently queried userid.  Since the common pattern is
many successive queries about the same user (ie, the current user) this
can save a lot of syscache probes.

Tom Lane db86f29617 Marginal hack to save a little bit of time in bpcharin() when typmod is -1,
which is a common case.

Tom Lane 7cac50271d Avoid unnecessary call of rangeTableEntry_used() for the result relation
of a query.

Tom Lane d66daabec9 Remove typeidIsValid() checks in can_coerce_type(). These checks
were pretty expensive and I believe the case they were put in to
defend against can no longer arise, now that we have dependency checks
to prevent deletion of a type entry that is still referenced.  Certainly
the example given in the CVS log entry can't happen anymore.
Since this was the only use of typeidIsValid(), remove the routine too.

Tom Lane bbc048319f expandRTE and get_rte_attribute_type mistakenly always imputed typmod -1
to columns of an RTE that was a function returning RECORD with a column
definition list.  Apparently no one has tried to use non-default typmod
with a function returning RECORD before.

Tom Lane e92a88272e Modify hash_search() API to prevent future occurrences of the error
spotted by Qingqing Zhou.  The HASH_ENTER action now automatically
fails with elog(ERROR) on out-of-memory --- which incidentally lets
us eliminate duplicate error checks in quite a bunch of places.  If
you really need the old return-NULL-on-out-of-memory behavior, you
can ask for HASH_ENTER_NULL.  But there is now an Assert in that path
checking that you aren't hoping to get that behavior in a palloc-based
hash table.
Along the way, remove the old HASH_FIND_SAVE/HASH_REMOVE_SAVED actions,
which were not being used anywhere anymore, and were surely too ugly
and unsafe to want to see revived again.

Tom Lane f8a051604f Bgwriter should PANIC if it runs out of memory for pending-fsyncs
hash table.  This is a pretty unlikely scenario, since the table
should be tiny, but we can't guarantee continued correct operation
if it does occur.  Spotted by Qingqing Zhou.

Tom Lane 6d9ee03148 get_expr_result_type has to be prepared to pull type information
from a RECORD Const node, because that's what it may be faced with
after constant-folding of a function returning RECORD.  Per example
from Michael Fuhr.

Tom Lane 32e8fc4a28 Arrange to cache fmgr lookup information for an index's access method
routines in the index's relcache entry, instead of doing a fresh fmgr_info
on every index access.  We were already doing this for the index's opclass
support functions; not sure why we didn't think to do it for the AM
functions too.  This supersedes the former method of caching (only)
amgettuple in indexscan scan descriptors; it's an improvement because the
function lookup can be amortized across multiple statements instead of
being repeated for each statement.  Even though lookup for builtin
functions is pretty cheap, this seems to drop a percent or two off some
simple benchmarks.

consistency and to prevent rounding for days < 30.  Also round off all
trailing zeros, rather than leaving an even number of digits.

Bruce Momjian f35d493d16 Back out:
Display only 9 not 10 digits of precision for timestamp values when

Neil Conway 63e0d612f5 Adjust datetime parsing to be more robust. We now pass the length of the
working buffer into ParseDateTime() and reject too-long input there,
rather than checking the length of the input string before calling
ParseDateTime(). The old method was bogus because ParseDateTime() can use
a variable amount of working space, depending on the content of the
input string (e.g. how many fields need to be NUL terminated). This fixes
a minor stack overrun -- I don't _think_ it's exploitable, although I
won't claim to be an expert.

Along the way, fix a bug reported by Mark Dilger: the working buffer
allocated by interval_in() was too short, which resulted in rejecting
some perfectly valid interval input values. I added a regression test for
this fix.

Tom Lane 15e4d1e2a7 Tweak the backend scanner (and psqlscan.l, which must track the backend
scanner anyway) to avoid having any backup states.  According to the
flex manual, this should speed things up, and indeed the backend scanner
is about a third faster according to some quick profiling checks.
I haven't tried to measure the speed change in psql, but it probably
is similar.

Bruce Momjian 8c792fe9cb At the head of wchareq, length of (multibyte) character is compared by
using pg_mblen. Therefore, pg_mblen is executed many times, and it
becomes a bottleneck.

This patch makes a short cut, and reduces execution frequency of
pg_mblen by comparing the first byte first.

Bruce Momjian bbb586ff21 Quick patch to adress a recent concern on the mailing list
about adding an errant "TO" when we already have a TO. Since
TO cannot be a valid column name (we must quote it), we can
simply ignore the tab-completion if the previous word
was a "TO".

Tom Lane 872c1497fc Previous fix for "x FULL JOIN y ON true" failed to handle the case
where there was also a WHERE-clause restriction that applied to the
join.  The check on restrictlist == NIL is really unnecessary anyway,
because select_mergejoin_clauses already checked for and complained
about any unmergejoinable join clauses.  So just take it out.

Tom Lane 1a022f71d8 Add -I$(srcdir) to CPPFLAGS to make psqlscan.c compile in vpath builds.
Not sure why this hasn't been reported before; perhaps it is not needed
with newer gcc versions, but it definitely fails here.

Tatsuo Ishii a90e9d662e Inserting 5 characters into char(10) does not produce 5 padding spaces

if octet_length(multibyte_chars) == n where n is char(n).
Long standing bug since 7.3 days. Per report and fix from Yoshiyuki Asaba.

Tom Lane c1393173aa Avoid redundant relation lock grabs during planning, and make sure
that we acquire a lock on relations added to the query due to inheritance.
Formerly, no such lock was held throughout planning, which meant that
a schema change could occur to invalidate the plan before it's even
been completed.
