think that both sides of indexqual look like index keys. An example is
create table inside (f1 float8 primary key);
create table outside (g1 float8, g2 float8);
select * from inside,outside where f1 = atan2(g1+1, g2);
ERROR: ExecInitIndexScan: both left and right ops are rel-vars
(note that failure is potentially platform-dependent). Solution is a
cleanup I had had in mind to make anyway: functional index keys should
be represented as Var nodes in the fixed indexqual, just like regular
index keys.
table for an average of NTUP_PER_BUCKET tuples/bucket, but cost_hashjoin
was assuming a target load of one tuple/bucket. This was causing a
noticeable underestimate of hashjoin costs.
Ensure that outer tuple link needed for inner indexscan qual evaluation
gets set in the EvalPlanQual case. This stops coredump, but we still
have resource leaks due to failure to clean up EvalPlanQual properly...
would crash, due to premature invocation of SetQuerySnapshot(). Clean
up problems with handling of multiple queries by splitting
pg_parse_and_plan into two routines. The old code would not, for
example, do the right thing with END; SELECT... submitted in one query
string when it had been in transaction abort state, because it'd decide
to skip planning the SELECT before it had executed the END. New
arrangement is simpler and doesn't force caller to plan if only
parse+rewrite is needed.
nodes. The former version failed to check permissions of relations that
were referenced in second and later clauses of UNIONs, and it did not
check permissions of tables referenced via inheritance.
represent the result of a binary-compatible type coercion. At runtime
it just evaluates its argument --- but during type resolution, exprType
will pick up the output type of the RelabelType node instead of the type
of the argument. This solves some longstanding problems with dropped
type coercions, an example being 'select now()::abstime::int4' which
used to produce date-formatted output, not an integer, because the
coercion to int4 was dropped on the floor.
SELECT a FROM t1 tx (a);
Allow join syntax, including queries like
SELECT * FROM t1 NATURAL JOIN t2;
Update RTE structure to hold column aliases in an Attr structure.
SELECT DISTINCT ON (expr [, expr ...]) targetlist ...
and there is a check to make sure that the user didn't specify an ORDER BY
that's incompatible with the DISTINCT operation.
Reimplement nodeUnique and nodeGroup to use the proper datatype-specific
equality function for each column being compared --- they used to do
bitwise comparisons or convert the data to text strings and strcmp().
(To add insult to injury, they'd look up the conversion functions once
for each tuple...) Parse/plan representation of DISTINCT is now a list
of SortClause nodes.
initdb forced by querytree change...
from a constraint condition does not violate the constraint (cf. discussion
on pghackers 12/9/99). Implemented by adding a parameter to ExecQual,
specifying whether to return TRUE or FALSE when the qual result is
really NULL in three-valued boolean logic. Currently, ExecRelCheck is
the only caller that asks for TRUE, but if we find any other places that
have the wrong response to NULL, it'll be easy to fix them.
Make all system indexes unique.
Make all cache loads use system indexes.
Rename *rel to *relid in inheritance tables.
Rename cache names to be clearer.
subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator.
That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...),
but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere
in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks
to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand
side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK.
To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink
type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to.
But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side
row expression.
nulls with non-nulls using proper three-valued boolean logic. Also clean
up ExecQual to make it clearer that ExecQual *does* follow the SQL spec
for boolean nulls. See '[BUGS] (null) != (null)' thread around 10/26/99
for more detail.
Now indexes of pg_class and pg_type are unique indexes
and guarantee the uniqueness of correponding attributes.
heap_create() was changed to take another boolean parameter
which allows to postpone the creation of disk file.
The name of rd_nonameunlinked was changed to rd_unlinked.
It is used generally(not only for noname relations) now.
Requires initdb.
in the TupleDesc that the caller already has (for call from ExecMain) or
can make just as easily as ExecInitJunkFilter() can (for call from
ExecAppend). Also, don't bother to build a junk filter for an INSERT
operation that doesn't actually need one, which is the normal case.
before calling execProject, when the outerPlan has returned zero tuples.
I took this out under the mistaken impression that the input tuple
couldn't be referenced by execProject if we weren't in GROUP BY mode.
But it can, if we're in an UPDATE or DELETE...
a generalized module 'tuplesort.c' that can sort either HeapTuples or
IndexTuples, and is not tied to execution of a Sort node. Clean up
memory leakages in sorting, and replace nbtsort.c's private implementation
of mergesorting with calls to tuplesort.c.
BufFile so that it handles multi-segment temporary files transparently.
This allows sorts and hashes to work with data exceeding 2Gig (or whatever
the local limit on file size is). Change psort.c to use relative seeks
instead of absolute seeks for backwards scanning, so that it won't fail
when the data volume exceeds 2Gig.
mentioned in FROM but not elsewhere in the query: such tables should be
joined over anyway. Aside from being more standards-compliant, this allows
removal of some very ugly hacks for COUNT(*) processing. Also, allow
HAVING clause without aggregate functions, since SQL does. Clean up
CREATE RULE statement-list syntax the same way Bruce just fixed the
main stmtmulti production.
CAUTION: addition of a field to RangeTblEntry nodes breaks stored rules;
you will have to initdb if you have any rules.
