This patch eliminates per-chunk palloc overhead for most small allocations
needed in the representation of an ispell dictionary. This saves close to
a factor of 2 on the current Czech ispell data. While it doesn't cover
every last small allocation in the ispell code, we are at the point of
diminishing returns, because about 95% of the allocations are covered
already.
Pavel Stehule, rather heavily revised by Tom
Add explicit initialization and cleanup functions to spell.c, and keep
all working state in the already-existing ISpellDict struct. This lets us
get rid of a static variable along with some extremely shaky assumptions
about usage of child memory contexts.
This commit is just code beautification and has no impact on functionality
or performance, but it opens the way to a less-grotty implementation of
Pavel's memory-saving hack, which will follow shortly.
- Rename TSParserGetPrsid to get_ts_parser_oid.
- Rename TSDictionaryGetDictid to get_ts_dict_oid.
- Rename TSTemplateGetTmplid to get_ts_template_oid.
- Rename TSConfigGetCfgid to get_ts_config_oid.
- Rename FindConversionByName to get_conversion_oid.
- Rename GetConstraintName to get_constraint_oid.
- Add new functions get_opclass_oid, get_opfamily_oid, get_rewrite_oid,
get_rewrite_oid_without_relid, get_trigger_oid, and get_cast_oid.
The name of each function matches the corresponding catalog.
Thanks to KaiGai Kohei for the review.
bright, but it beats assuming that a prefix match behaves identically to an
exact match, which is what the code was doing before :-(. Noted while
experimenting with Artur Dobrowski's example.
possible (ie, whenever the tsquery is a constant), even when no statistics
are available for the tsvector. For example, foo @@ 'a & b'::tsquery
can be expected to be more selective than foo @@ 'a'::tsquery, whether
or not we know anything about foo. We use DEFAULT_TS_MATCH_SEL as the assumed
selectivity of individual query terms when no stats are available, then
combine the terms according to the query's AND/OR structure as usual.
Per experimentation with Artur Dabrowski's example. (The fact that there
are no stats available in that example is a problem in itself, but
nonetheless tsmatchsel should be smarter about the case.)
Back-patch to 8.4 to keep all versions of tsmatchsel() in sync.
We must filter out hashtable entries with frequencies less than those
specified by the algorithm, else we risk emitting junk entries whose
actual frequency is much less than other lexemes that did not get
tabulated. This is bad enough by itself, but even worse is that
tsquerysel() believes that the minimum frequency seen in pg_statistic is a
hard upper bound for lexemes not included, and was thus underestimating
the frequency of non-MCEs.
Also, set the threshold frequency to something with a little bit of theory
behind it, to wit assume that the input distribution is approximately
Zipfian. This might need adjustment in future, but some preliminary
experiments suggest that it's not too unreasonable.
Back-patch to 8.4, where this code was introduced.

My initial impression that glibc was measuring the precision in characters
(which is what the Linux man page says it does) was incorrect. It does take
the precision to be in bytes, but it also tries to truncate the string at a
character boundary. The bottom line remains the same: it will mess up
if the string is not in the encoding it expects, so we need to avoid %.*s
anytime there's a significant risk of that. Previous code changes are still
good, but adjust the comments to reflect this knowledge. Per research by
Hernan Gonzalez.
Depending on which spec you read, field widths and precisions in %s may be
counted either in bytes or characters. Our code was assuming bytes, which
is wrong at least for glibc's implementation, and in any case libc might
have a different idea of the prevailing encoding than we do. Hence, for
portable results we must avoid using anything more complex than just "%s"
unless the string to be printed is known to be all-ASCII.
This patch fixes the cases I could find, including the psql formatting
failure reported by Hernan Gonzalez. In HEAD only, I also added comments
to some places where it appears safe to continue using "%.*s".
to RFC 3986. In particular, these characters now terminate the path part
of a URL: '"', '<', '>', '\', '^', '`', '{', '|', '}'. The previous behavior
was inconsistent and depended on whether a "?" was present in the path.
Per gripe from Donald Fraser and spec research by Kevin Grittner.
This is a pre-existing bug, but not back-patching since the risks of
breaking existing applications seem to outweigh the benefits.
"column < constant", and the comparison value is in the first or last
histogram bin or outside the histogram entirely, try to fetch the actual
column min or max value using an index scan (if there is an index on the
column). If successful, replace the lower or upper histogram bound with
that value before carrying on with the estimate. This limits the
estimation error caused by moving min/max values when the comparison
value is close to the min or max. Per a complaint from Josh Berkus.
It is tempting to consider using this mechanism for mergejoinscansel as well,
but that would inject index fetches into main-line join estimation not just
endpoint cases. I'm refraining from that until we can get a better handle
on the costs of doing this type of lookup.
For long source strings the copying results in O(N^2) behavior, and the
multiplier can be significant if wide-char conversion is involved.

Update install-sh to that from Autoconf 2.63, plus our Darwin-specific
changes (which I simplified a bit). install-sh is now able to install
multiple files in one run, so we could simplify our makefiles sometime.
install-sh also now has a -d option to create directories, so we don't need
mkinstalldirs anymore.
Use AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in configure.in, so we can use mkdir -p when available
instead of install-sh -d. For consistency with the rest of the world,
the corresponding make variable has been renamed from $(mkinstalldirs) to
$(MKDIR_P).
This alters various incidental uses of C++ key words to use other similar
identifiers, so that a C++ compiler won't choke outright. You still
(probably) need extern "C" { }; around the inclusion of backend headers.

Also add a script cpluspluscheck to check for C++ compatibility in the
future. As of right now, this passes without error for me.

So, treat them as part of word.

- pg_wchar and wchar_t could have different size, so char2wchar
doesn't call pg_mb2wchar_with_len to prevent out-of-bound
memory bug
- make char2wchar/wchar2char symmetric, now they should not be
called with C-locale because mbstowcs/wcstombs oftenly doesn't
work correct with C-locale.
- Text parser uses pg_mb2wchar_with_len directly in case of
C-locale and multibyte encoding

The original number was pulled out of the air anyway :-(, but it was picked
in the context of the old default, so holding the default size of the
MCELEM array constant seems the best thing. Per discussion.

behavior of counting duplicate tsvectors. Future work: create selectivity
estimation functions that actually do something with these stats.
(Some other things we ought to look at doing: using the Lossy Counting
algorithm in compute_minimal_stats, and using the element-counting idea for
stats on regular arrays.)

by installing an error context subroutine that will provide the file name
and line number for all errors detected while reading a config file.
Some of the reader routines were already doing that in an ad-hoc way for
errors detected directly in the reader, but it didn't help for problems
detected in subroutines, such as encoding violations.
Back-patch to 8.3 because 8.3 is where people will be trying to debug
configuration files.
