rowtype contains dropped columns. Sometimes the input tuple will be formed
from a select targetlist in which dropped columns are filled with a NULL
of an arbitrary type (the planner typically uses INT4, since it can't tell
what type the dropped column really was). So we need to relax the rowtype
compatibility check to not insist on physical compatibility if the actual
column value is NULL.
In principle we might need to do this for functions returning composite
types, too (see tupledesc_match()). In practice there doesn't seem to be
a bug there, probably because the function will be using the same cached
rowtype descriptor as the caller. Fixing that code path would require
significant rearrangement, so I left it alone for now.
Per complaint from Filip Rembialkowski.
generic syntax error, when seeing "foo := something" and foo isn't recognized.
This buys back most of the helpfulness discarded in my previous patch by not
throwing errors when a qualified name appears to match a row variable but the
last component doesn't match any field of the row. It covers other cases
where our error messages left something to be desired, too.
field references in SQL expressions to have RECFIELD datum-array entries at
parse time. If it turns out that the reference is actually to a SQL column,
the RECFIELD entry is useless, but it costs little. This allows us to get rid
of the previous use of FieldSelect applied to a whole-row Param for the record
variable; which was not only slower than a direct RECFIELD reference, but
failed for references to system columns of a trigger's NEW or OLD record.
Per report and fix suggestion from Dean Rasheed.
pginstaller isn't used anymore, in favor of the one-click installers.
Make it clear that we support Windows 2000 and newer with the native
port, instead of first saying we support NT4 and then saying we don't.
Previously we only cancelled sessions that were in-transaction.
Simple fix is to just cancel all sessions without waiting. Doing
it this way avoids complicating common code paths, which would
not be worth the trouble to cover this rare case.
Problem report and fix by Andres Freund, edited somewhat by me
This silences some warnings on Win64. Not using the proper SOCKET datatype
was actually wrong on Win32 as well, but didn't cause any warnings there.
Also create define PGINVALID_SOCKET to indicate an invalid/non-existing
socket, instead of using a hardcoded -1 value.
Previously, fastgetattr() and heap_getattr() tested their fourth argument
against a null pointer, but any attempt to use them with a literal-NULL
fourth argument evaluated to *(void *)0, resulting in a compiler error.
Remove these NULL tests to avoid leading future readers of this code to
believe that this has a chance of working. Also clean up related legacy
code in nocachegetattr(), heap_getsysattr(), and nocache_index_getattr().
The new coding standard is that any code which calls a getattr-type
function or macro which takes an isnull argument MUST pass a valid
boolean pointer. Per discussion with Bruce Momjian, Tom Lane, Alvaro
Herrera.
extract a system column, and remove a couple of lines that are useless
in light of the fact that we aren't ever going to support this case. There
isn't much point in trying to make this work because a tuple Datum does
not carry many of the system columns. Per experimentation with a case
reported by Dean Rasheed; we'll have to fix his problem somewhere else.
deletion, so that we attempt to unlink the correct filepath. unlink()
errors are ignorable there, so lack of a DatabasePath initialization step
did not cause visible problems until a related bug showed up on Solaris.
Code refactored from xact_redo_commit() to
ProcessCommittedInvalidationMessages() in inval.c. Recovery may replay
shared invalidation messages for many databases, so we cannot
SetDatabasePath() once as we do in normal backends. Read the databaseid
from the shared invalidation messages, then set DatabasePath
temporarily before calling RelationCacheInitFileInvalidate().
Problem report by Robert Treat, analysis and fix by me.
- Changed MULTIPLICITY check from runtime to compiletime.
No loads the large Config module.
- Changed plperl_init_interp() to return new interp
and not alter the global interp_state
- Moved plperl_safe_init() call into check_interp().
- Removed plperl_safe_init_done state variable
as interp_state now covers that role.
- Changed plperl_create_sub() to take a plperl_proc_desc argument.
- Simplified return value handling in plperl_create_sub.
- Changed perl.com link in the docs to perl.org and tweaked
wording to clarify that require, not use, is what's blocked.
- Moved perl code in large multi-line C string literal macros
out to plc_*.pl files.
- Added a test2macro.pl utility to convert the plc_*.pl files to
macros in a perlchunks.h file which is #included
- Simplifed plperl_safe_init() slightly
- Optimized pg_verifymbstr calls to avoid unneeded strlen()s.
Patch from Tim Bunce, with minor editing from me.
someone else has just updated it, we have to set priorXmax to that tuple's
xmax (ie, the XID of the other xact that updated it) before looping back to
examine the next tuple. Obviously, the next tuple in the update chain should
have that XID as its xmin, not the same xmin as the preceding tuple that we
had been trying to lock. The mismatch would cause the EvalPlanQual logic to
decide that the tuple chain ended in a deletion, when actually there was a
live tuple that should have been found.
I inserted this error when recently adding logic to EvalPlanQual to make it
lock tuples before returning them (as opposed to the old method in which the
lock would occur much later, causing a great deal of work to be wasted if we
only then discover someone else updated it). Sigh. Per today's report from
Takahiro Itagaki of inconsistent results during pgbench runs.
This uses the same infrastructure with EXPLAIN BUFFERS to support
{shared|local}_blks_{hit|read|written} andtemp_blks_{read|written}
columns in the pg_stat_statements view. The dumped file format
also updated.
Thanks to Robert Haas for the review.
of the string". The previous coding treated only -1 that way, and would
produce an invalid result value for other negative values.
We ought to fix it so that 2-parameter bit substring() is a different C
function and the 3-parameter form throws error for negative length, but
that takes a pg_proc change which is impractical in the back branches;
and in any case somebody might be relying on -1 working this way.
So just do this as a back-patchable fix.
It is absolutely not okay to throw an ereport(ERROR) in any random place in
the code just because DoingCommandRead is set; interrupting, say, OpenSSL
in the midst of its activities is guaranteed to result in heartache.
Instead of that, undo the original optimizations that threw away
QueryCancelPending anytime we were starting or finishing a command read, and
instead discard the cancel request within ProcessInterrupts if we find that
there is no HS reason for forcing a cancel and we are DoingCommandRead.
In passing, may I once again condemn the practice of changing the code
and not fixing the adjacent comment that you just turned into a lie?
we're not going to support that anymore.
I did keep the 64-bit-CRC-with-32-bit-arithmetic code, since it has a
performance excuse to live. It's a bit moot since that's all ifdef'd
out, of course.
Add missing varlena header to TableSpaceOpts structure. And, per
Tom Lane, instead of calling tablespace_reloptions in CacheMemoryContext,
call it in the caller's memory context and copy the value over
afterwards, to reduce the chances of a session-lifetime memory leak.
versions < 5.8. Also, if there's no Perl, emit a warning informing the
user that he won't be able to build from a CVS pull. This is exactly the
same treatment we give Bison and Perl, and for the same reasons.
provide a working 64-bit integer datatype. As recently noted, we've been
broken on such platforms since early in the 8.4 development cycle. Since
it took nearly two years for anyone to even notice, it seems that the
rationale for continuing to support such platforms has reached the point
of non-existence. Rather than thrashing around to try to make it work
again, we'll just admit up front that this no longer works.
Back-patch to 8.4 since that branch is also broken.
We should go around to remove INT64_IS_BUSTED support, but just in HEAD,
so that seems like material for a separate commit.
