an LWLock instead of a spinlock. This hardly matters on Unix machines
but should improve startup performance on Windows (or any port using
EXEC_BACKEND). Per previous discussion.
from Andrus Moor. The former state-machine-style coding wasn't actually
doing much except obscuring the control flow, and it didn't extend
readily to fix this case, so I just took it out. Also, add a
YY_FLUSH_BUFFER call to ensure the lexer is reset correctly if the
previous scan failed partway through the file.
a little bit, and set the minimum buffers-per-connection ratio to 10 not
5. I folded the two test routines into one to counteract the illusion
that the tests can be twiddled independently, and added some documentation
pointing out the necessary connection between the sets of values tested.
Fixes strange choices of parameters that I noticed CVS tip making on
Darwin with Apple's undersized default SHMMAX.
selection of a field from the result of a function returning RECORD.
I believe this case is new in 8.1; it's due to the addition of OUT parameters.
Per example from Michael Fuhr.
in favor of having just one set of macros that don't do HOLD/RESUME_INTERRUPTS
(hence, these correspond to the old SpinLockAcquire_NoHoldoff case).
Given our coding rules for spinlock use, there is no reason to allow
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS to be done while holding a spinlock, and also there
is no situation where ImmediateInterruptOK will be true while holding a
spinlock. Therefore doing HOLD/RESUME_INTERRUPTS while taking/releasing a
spinlock is just a waste of cycles. Qingqing Zhou and Tom Lane.
setup. This protects against undesired changes in locale behavior
if someone carelessly does setlocale(LC_ALL, "") (and we know who
you are, perl guys).
get_func_arg_info() for consistency with other names there.
This code will probably be useful to other PLs when they start to
support OUT parameters, so better to have it in the main backend.
Also, fix plpgsql validator to detect bogus OUT parameters even when
check_function_bodies is off.
(previously we only did = and <> correctly). Also, allow row comparisons
with any operators that are in btree opclasses, not only those with these
specific names. This gets rid of a whole lot of indefensible assumptions
about the behavior of particular operators based on their names ... though
it's still true that IN and NOT IN expand to "= ANY". The patch adds a
RowCompareExpr expression node type, and makes some changes in the
representation of ANY/ALL/ROWCOMPARE SubLinks so that they can share code
with RowCompareExpr.
I have not yet done anything about making RowCompareExpr an indexable
operator, but will look at that soon.
initdb forced due to changes in stored rules.
if (c == '\\' && cstate->line_buf.len == 0)
The problem with that is the because of the input and _output_
buffering, cstate->line_buf.len could be zero even if we are not on the
first character of a line. In fact, for a typical line, it is zero for
all characters on the line. The proper solution is to introduce a
boolean, first_char_in_line, that we set as we enter the loop and clear
once we process a character.
I have restructured the line-reading code in copy.c by:
o merging the CSV/non-CSV functions into a single function
o used macros to centralize and clarify the buffering code
o updated comments
o renamed client_encoding_only to encoding_embeds_ascii
o added a high-bit test to the encoding_embeds_ascii test for
performance
o in CSV mode, allow a backslash followed by a non-period to
continue being processed as a data value
There should be no performance impact from this patch because it is
functionally equivalent. If you apply the patch you will see copy.c is
much clearer in this area now and might suggest additional
optimizations.
I have also attached a 8.1-only patch to fix the CSV \. handling bug
with no code restructuring.
