f9e6e27c87 Break transformCreateStmt() into multiple routines and make
transformAlterStmt() use these routines, instead of having lots of
duplicate (not to mention should-have-been-duplicate) code.
Adding a column with a CHECK constraint actually works now,
and the tests to reject unsupported DEFAULT and NOT NULL clauses
actually fire now.  ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY works, modulo
having to have created the column(s) NOT NULL already.

2e5fda7b7e DROP AGGREGATE and COMMENT ON AGGREGATE now accept the expected syntax
'aggname (aggtype)'.  The old syntax 'aggname aggtype' is still accepted
for backwards compatibility.  Fix pg_dump, which was actually broken for
most cases of user-defined aggregates.  Clean up error messages associated
with these commands.

3e1beda2cd Implement precision support for timestamp and time, both with and without
time zones.
SQL99 spec requires a default of zero (round to seconds) which is set
 in gram.y as typmod is set in the parse tree. We *could* change to a
 default of either 6 (for internal compatibility with previous versions)
 or 2 (for external compatibility with previous versions).
Evaluate entries in pg_proc wrt the iscachable attribute for timestamp and
 other date/time types. Try to recognize cases where side effects like the
 current time zone setting may have an effect on results to decide whether
 something is cachable or not.

bd9b32803b Here is my much-promised patch to let people add UNIQUE constraints after
table creation time.  Big deal you say - but this patch is the basis of the
next thing which is adding PRIMARY KEYs after table creation time.  (Which
is currently impossible without twiddling catalogs)

Rundown
-------

* I have made the makeObjectName function of analyze.c non-static, and
exported it in analyze.h

* I have included analyze.h and defrem.h into command.c, to support
makingObjectNames and creating indices

* I removed the 'case CONSTR_PRIMARY' clause so that it properly fails and
says you can't add primary keys, rather than just doing nothing and
reporting nothing!!!

* I have modified the docs.

Algorithm
---------

* If name specified is null, search for a new valid constraint name.  I'm
not sure if I should "lock" my generated name somehow tho - should I open
the relation before doing this step?

* Open relation in access exclusive mode

* Check that the constraint does not already exist

* Define the new index

* Warn if they're doubling up on an existing index

f933766ba7 Restructure pg_opclass, pg_amop, and pg_amproc per previous discussions in
pgsql-hackers.  pg_opclass now has a row for each opclass supported by each
index AM, not a row for each opclass name.  This allows pg_opclass to show
directly whether an AM supports an opclass, and furthermore makes it possible
to store additional information about an opclass that might be AM-dependent.
pg_opclass and pg_amop now store "lossy" and "haskeytype" information that we
previously expected the user to remember to provide in CREATE INDEX commands.
Lossiness is no longer an index-level property, but is associated with the
use of a particular operator in a particular index opclass.

Along the way, IndexSupportInitialize now uses the syscaches to retrieve
pg_amop and pg_amproc entries.  I find this reduces backend launch time by
about ten percent, at the cost of a couple more special cases in catcache.c's
IndexScanOK.

d4f4b971a4 Sequences are now based on int8, not int4, arithmetic. SERIAL pseudo-type
has an alias SERIAL4 and a sister SERIAL8.  SERIAL8 is just the same
except the created column is type int8 not int4.
initdb forced.  Note this also breaks any chance of pg_upgrade from 7.1,
unless we hack up pg_upgrade to drop and recreate sequences.  (Which is
not out of the question, but I don't wanna do it.)

f31dc0ada7 Partial indexes work again, courtesy of Martijn van Oosterhout.
Note: I didn't force an initdb, figuring that one today was enough.
However, there is a new function in pg_proc.h, and pg_dump won't be
able to dump partial indexes until you add that function.

499c81d3a3 Prohibit a column from appearing twice in a PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE
constraint.  This case (a) is useless, (b) violates SQL92, and
(c) is certain to cause a failure downstream when we try to create
an index with duplicated column names.  So give an appropriate error
message instead of letting the index failure occur.  Per report from
Colin Strickland.  NOTE: currently, CREATE INDEX fooi ON foo(f1,f1)
still fails with 'cannot insert duplicate key' error.  Should we
change that too?  What about functional indexes?

4d58a7ca87 Optimizer can now estimate selectivity of IS NULL, IS NOT NULL,
IS TRUE, etc, with some degree of verisimilitude.  Split out
selectivity support functions from builtins.h into a new header
file selfuncs.h, so as to reduce the number of header files builtins.h
must depend on.  Fix a few missing inclusions exposed thereby.

eeaa497e7b Give error message, rather than coredump, for utility statements in
conditional rules (rules with WHERE clauses).  We cannot support these
since there's noplace to hang a condition on a utility statement.
We caught the other case (attempt to attach a condition at rewrite time)
awhile ago, but this one escaped notice until now.

efcecd9eca Make bit and bit varying types reject too long input. (They already tried
to do that, but inconsistently.)  Make bit type reject too short input,
too, per SQL.  Since it no longer zero pads, 'zpbit*' has been renamed to
'bit*' in the source, hence initdb.

f905d65ee3 Rewrite of planner statistics-gathering code. ANALYZE is now available as
a separate statement (though it can still be invoked as part of VACUUM, too).
pg_statistic redesigned to be more flexible about what statistics are
stored.  ANALYZE now collects a list of several of the most common values,
not just one, plus a histogram (not just the min and max values).  Random
sampling is used to make the process reasonably fast even on very large
tables.  The number of values and histogram bins collected is now
user-settable via an ALTER TABLE command.

There is more still to do; the new stats are not being used everywhere
they could be in the planner.  But the remaining changes for this project
should be localized, and the behavior is already better than before.

A not-very-related change is that sorting now makes use of btree comparison
routines if it can find one, rather than invoking '<' twice.

de434c2d5f Arrange for ORDER BY an expression on a UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT result,
such as
    SELECT f1 FROM foo UNION SELECT ... ORDER BY upper(f1)
to draw
'ORDER BY on a UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT result must be on one of the result columns'
rather than the uninformative 'f1 not found' we were producing before.
Eventually this should actually work, but that looks much too hard to try
to implement in late beta...

4a66f9dd54 Change scoping of table and join refnames to conform to SQL92: a JOIN
clause with an alias is a <subquery> and therefore hides table references
appearing within it, according to the spec.  This is the same as the
preliminary patch I posted to pgsql-patches yesterday, plus some really
grotty code in ruleutils.c to reverse-list a query tree with the correct
alias name depending on context.  I'd rather not have done that, but unless
we want to force another initdb for 7.1, there's no other way for now.

2fb6cc9045 Remove not-really-standard implementation of CREATE TABLE's UNDER clause,
and revert documentation to describe the existing INHERITS clause
instead, per recent discussion in pghackers.  Also fix implementation
of SQL_inheritance SET variable: it is not cool to look at this var
during the initial parsing phase, only during parse_analyze().  See
recent bug report concerning misinterpretation of date constants just
after a SET TIMEZONE command.  gram.y really has to be an invariant
transformation of the query string to a raw parsetree; anything that
can vary with time must be done during parse analysis.

hasn't actually worked until just now.

981a7d32d1 From Stephan Szabo:
I believe this should fix the issue that Philip Warner
noticed about the check for unique constraints meeting the
referenced keys of a foreign key constraint allowing the
specification of a subset of a foreign key instead of
rejecting it.  I also added tests for a base case of
this to the foreign key and alter table tests and patches
for expected output.

a51f004d29 Repair breakage of rules containing INSERT ... SELECT actions, per bug
report from Joel Burton.  Turns out that my simple idea of turning the
SELECT into a subquery does not interact well *at all* with the way the
rule rewriter works.  Really what we need to make INSERT ... SELECT work
cleanly is to decouple targetlists from rangetables: an INSERT ... SELECT
wants to have two levels of targetlist but only one rangetable.  No time
for that for 7.1, however, so I've inserted some ugly hacks to make the
rewriter know explicitly about the structure of INSERT ... SELECT queries.
Ugh :-(

3908473c80 Make DROP TABLE rollback-able: postpone physical file delete until commit.
(WAL logging for this is not done yet, however.)  Clean up a number of really
crufty things that are no longer needed now that DROP behaves nicely.  Make
temp table mapper do the right things when drop or rename affecting a temp
table is rolled back.  Also, remove "relation modified while in use" error
check, in favor of locking tables at first reference and holding that lock
throughout the statement.

fbd26d6984 Arrange that no database accesses are attempted during parser() --- this
took some rejiggering of typename and ACL parsing, as well as moving
parse_analyze call out of parser().  Restructure postgres.c processing
so that parse analysis and rewrite are skipped when in abort-transaction
state.  Only COMMIT and ABORT statements will be processed beyond the raw
parser() phase.  This addresses problem of parser failing with database access
errors while in aborted state (see pghackers discussions around 7/28/00).
Also fix some bugs with COMMIT/ABORT statements appearing in the middle of
a single query input string.
Function, operator, and aggregate arguments/results can now use full
TypeName production, in particular foo[] for array types.
DROP OPERATOR and COMMENT ON OPERATOR were broken for unary operators.
Allow CREATE AGGREGATE to accept unquoted numeric constants for initcond.

05e3d0ee86 Reimplementation of UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT. INTERSECT/EXCEPT now meet the
SQL92 semantics, including support for ALL option.  All three can be used
in subqueries and views.  DISTINCT and ORDER BY work now in views, too.
This rewrite fixes many problems with cross-datatype UNIONs and INSERT/SELECT
where the SELECT yields different datatypes than the INSERT needs.  I did
that by making UNION subqueries and SELECT in INSERT be treated like
subselects-in-FROM, thereby allowing an extra level of targetlist where the
datatype conversions can be inserted safely.

3a94e789f5 Subselects in FROM clause, per ISO syntax: FROM (SELECT ...) [AS] alias.
(Don't forget that an alias is required.)  Views reimplemented as expanding
to subselect-in-FROM.  Grouping, aggregates, DISTINCT in views actually
work now (he says optimistically).  No UNION support in subselects/views
yet, but I have some ideas about that.  Rule-related permissions checking
moved out of rewriter and into executor.

ebdfac3bb1 the patch include:
- rename ichar() to chr() (discussed with Tom)

        - add docs for oracle compatible routines:

                btrim()
                ascii()
                chr()
                repeat()

        - fix bug with timezone in to_char()

        - all to_char() variants return NULL instead textin("")
          if it's needful.

 The contrib/odbc is without changes and contains same routines as main
tree ... because I not sure how plans are Thomas with this :-)

This effectively one line patch should fix the fact that

stuff.

d4f626507c This is mostly the same as an earlier patch I
didn't hear anything about, but which would
have broken with the function manager changes
anyway.

Well, this patch checks that a unique constraint
of some form (unique or pk) is on the referenced
columns of an FK constraint and that the columns
in the referencing table exist at creation time.
The former is to move closer to SQL compatibility
and the latter is in answer to a bug report.
I also added a basic check of this functionality
to the alter table and foreign key regression
tests.

d03a933ec5 Fix performance problems with pg_index lookups (see, for example,
discussion of 5/19/00).  pg_index is now searched for indexes of a
relation using an indexscan.  Moreover, this is done once and cached
in the relcache entry for the relation, in the form of a list of OIDs
for the indexes.  This list is used by the parser and executor to drive
lookups in the pg_index syscache when they want to know the properties
of the indexes.  Net result: index information will be fully cached
for repetitive operations such as inserts.

5c462baebc transformCreateStmt should put Ident nodes, not ColumnDef nodes, into
keys lists of Constraint nodes.  This eliminates a type pun that would
probably have caused trouble someday, and eliminates circular references
in the parsetree that were causing trouble now.
Also, change parser's uses of strcasecmp() to strcmp().  Since scan.l
has downcased any unquoted identifier, it is never correct to check an
identifier with strcasecmp() in the parser.  For example,
	CREATE TABLE FOO (f1 int, UNIQUE("F1"));
was accepted, which is wrong, and xlateSqlFunc did more than it should:
select datetime();
ERROR:  Function 'timestamp()' does not exist
(good)
select "DateTime"();
ERROR:  Function 'timestamp()' does not exist
(bad)

dd979f66be Redesign DISTINCT ON as discussed in pgsql-sql 1/25/00: syntax is now
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...

whereas x::char(1) will.  Likewise for NUMERIC precision/scale.

f68e11f373 Implement subselects in target lists. Also, relax requirement that
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.

eabc714a91 Reimplement parsing and storage of default expressions and constraint
expressions in CREATE TABLE.  There is no longer an emasculated expression
syntax for these things; it's full a_expr for constraints, and b_expr
for defaults (unfortunately the fact that NOT NULL is a part of the
column constraint syntax causes a shift/reduce conflict if you try a_expr.
Oh well --- at least parenthesized boolean expressions work now).  Also,
stored expression for a column default is not pre-coerced to the column
type; we rely on transformInsertStatement to do that when the default is
actually used.  This means "f1 datetime default 'now'" behaves the way
people usually expect it to.
BTW, all the support code is now there to implement ALTER TABLE ADD
CONSTRAINT and ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN with a default value.  I didn't
actually teach ALTER TABLE to call it, but it wouldn't be much work.

bd272cace6 Mega-commit to make heap_open/heap_openr/heap_close take an
additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or
'NoLock' to do no lock processing).  Ensure that all relations are locked
with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures
that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent
problems caused by concurrent VACUUM.  Fix several bugs having to do with
mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched
heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing).  A bogus ref count on
a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to
arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this
sloppiness for so long.  Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in
DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi.
Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the
Relation struct layout slightly.
Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.

db436adf76 Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of query
sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top
level of the planner.  This fixes many things.  An explicit sort is now
avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not
only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY.  It works
even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider
the indexscan.  It works for indexes on functions.  It works for indexes
on functions, backwards.  It's just so cool...

CAUTION: I have changed the representation of SortClause nodes, therefore
THIS UPDATE BREAKS STORED RULES.  You will need to initdb.

Bruce Momjian
c91dbcc5c7 The following patch finishes primary key support. Previously, when
a field was labelled as a primary key, the system automatically
created a unique index on the field.  This patch extends it so
that the index has the indisprimary field set.  You can pull a list
of primary keys with the followiing select.

SELECT pg_class.relname, pg_attribute.attname
    FROM pg_class, pg_attribute, pg_index
    WHERE pg_class.oid = pg_attribute.attrelid AND
        pg_class.oid = pg_index.indrelid AND
        pg_index.indkey[0] = pg_attribute.attnum AND
        pg_index.indisunique = 't';

There is nothing in this patch that modifies the template database to
set the indisprimary attribute for system tables.  Should they be
changed or should we only be concerned with user tables?

bd8ffc6f3f Hi!
INTERSECT and EXCEPT is available for postgresql-v6.4!

The patch against v6.4 is included at the end of the current text
(in uuencoded form!)

I also included the text of my Master's Thesis. (a postscript
version). I hope that you find something of it useful and would be
happy if parts of it find their way into the PostgreSQL documentation
project (If so, tell me, then I send the sources of the document!)

The contents of the document are:
  -) The first chapter might be of less interest as it gives only an
     overview on SQL.

  -) The second chapter gives a description on much of PostgreSQL's
     features (like user defined types etc. and how to use these features)

  -) The third chapter starts with an overview of PostgreSQL's internal
     structure with focus on the stages a query has to pass (i.e. parser,
     planner/optimizer, executor). Then a detailed description of the
     implementation of the Having clause and the Intersect/Except logic is
     given.

Originally I worked on v6.3.2 but never found time enough to prepare
and post a patch. Now I applied the changes to v6.4 to get Intersect
and Except working with the new version. Chapter 3 of my documentation
deals with the changes against v6.3.2, so keep that in mind when
comparing the parts of the code printed there with the patched sources
of v6.4.

Here are some remarks on the patch. There are some things that have
still to be done but at the moment I don't have time to do them
myself. (I'm doing my military service at the moment) Sorry for that
:-(

-) I used a rewrite technique for the implementation of the Except/Intersect
   logic which rewrites the query to a semantically equivalent query before
   it is handed to the rewrite system (for views, rules etc.), planner,
   executor etc.

-) In v6.3.2 the types of the attributes of two select statements
   connected by the UNION keyword had to match 100%. In v6.4 the types
   only need to be familiar (i.e. int and float can be mixed). Since this
   feature did not exist when I worked on Intersect/Except it
   does not work correctly for Except/Intersect queries WHEN USED IN
   COMBINATION WITH UNIONS! (i.e. sometimes the wrong type is used for the
   resulting table. This is because until now the types of the attributes of
   the first select statement have been used for the resulting table.
   When Intersects and/or Excepts are used in combination with Unions it
   might happen, that the first select statement of the original query
   appears at another position in the query which will be executed. The reason
   for this is the technique used for the implementation of
   Except/Intersect which does a query rewrite!)
   NOTE: It is NOT broken for pure UNION queries and pure INTERSECT/EXCEPT
         queries!!!

-) I had to add the field intersect_clause to some data structures
   but did not find time to implement printfuncs for the new field.
   This does NOT break the debug modes but when an Except/Intersect
   is used the query debug output will be the already rewritten query.

-) Massive changes to the grammar rules for SELECT and INSERT statements
   have been necessary (see comments in gram.y and documentation for
   deatails) in order to be able to use mixed queries like
   (SELECT ... UNION (SELECT ... EXCEPT SELECT)) INTERSECT SELECT...;

-) When using UNION/EXCEPT/INTERSECT you will get:
   NOTICE: equal: "Don't know if nodes of type xxx are equal".
   I did not have  time to add comparsion support for all the needed nodes,
   but the default behaviour of the function equal met my requirements.
   I did not dare to supress this message!

   That's the reason why the regression test for union will fail: These
   messages are also included in the union.out file!

-) Somebody of you changed the union_planner() function for v6.4
   (I copied the targetlist to new_tlist and that was removed and
   replaced by a cleanup of the original targetlist). These chnages
   violated some having queries executed against views so I changed
   it back again. I did not have time to examine the differences between the
   two versions but now it works :-)
   If you want to find out, try the file queries/view_having.sql on
   both versions and compare the results . Two queries won't produce a
   correct result with your version.

regards

on the base relations are used correctly 1.6) Unallowed Queries
are prevented (e.g. qualifications in the
     having clause that belong to the where clause) 1.7) Insert
into as select

2) Queries using the having clause on view relations also work
   but there are some restrictions:

2.1) Create View as Select ... Having ...; using base tables in
the select 2.1.1) The Query rewrite system:

2.1.2) Why are only simple queries allowed against a view from 2.1)

c579ce0fb0 I started adding the Having Clause and it works quite fine for
sequential scans! (I think it will also work with hash, index, etc
but I did not check it out! I made some High level changes which
should work for all access methods, but maybe I'm wrong. Please
let me know.)

Now it is possible to make queries like:

select s.sname, max(p.pid), min(p.pid) from part p, supplier s
where s.sid=p.sid group by s.sname having max(pid)=6 and min(pid)=1
or avg(pid)=4;

Having does not work yet for queries that contain a subselect
statement in the Having clause, I'll try to fix this in the next
days.

If there are some bugs, please let me know, I'll start to read the
mailinglists now!

Now here is the patch against the original 6.3 version (no snapshot!!):
