I haven't applied.
allocates the control data. The per-tape buffers are allocated only
on first use. This saves memory in situations where tuplesort.c
overestimates the number of tapes needed (ie, there are fewer runs
than tapes). Also, this makes legitimate the coding in inittapes()
that includes tape buffer space in the maximum-memory calculation:
when inittapes runs, we've already expended the whole allowed memory
on tuple storage, and so we'd better not allocate all the tape buffers
until we've flushed some tuples out of memory.
with fixed merge order (fixed number of "tapes") was based on obsolete
assumptions, namely that tape drives are expensive. Since our "tapes"
are really just a couple of buffers, we can have a lot of them given
adequate workspace. This allows reduction of the number of merge passes
with consequent savings of I/O during large sorts.

In src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode remove nearly duplicate copies of the

This produces a slight difference in some of the map files, using a

incorrectly and this changes it to a standard name.

It touches a lot of places, but not much in the way of big changes. The
only design decision I made was to duplicate the query and manipulation

callers because they know what type of object they are dealing with.

partial. None of the existing AMs do anything useful except counting
tuples when there's nothing to delete, and we can get a tuple count
from the heap as long as it's not a partial index. (hash actually can
skip anyway because it maintains a tuple count in the index metapage.)
GIST is not currently able to exploit this optimization because, due to
failure to index NULLs, GIST is always effectively partial. Possibly
we should fix that sometime.

the format on Tuple(Numeric) and the format to calculate(NumericVar)

comparisons or calculations of NUMERIC are executed, the conversion
of Numeric and NumericVar becomes a bottleneck.
It is profile result when "create index on NUMERIC column" is executed:

would basically punt in all cases for 'foo <> ALL (array)', which resulted
in a performance regression for NOT IN compared to what we were doing in
8.1 and before. Per report from Pavel Stehule.
relations: fix the executor so that we can have an Append plan on the
inside of a nestloop and still pass down outer index keys to index scans
within the Append, then generate such plans as if they were regular
inner indexscans. This avoids the need to evaluate the outer relation
multiple times.
... in fact, it will be applied now in any query whatsoever. I'm still
a bit concerned about the cycles that might be expended in failed proof
attempts, but given that CE is turned off by default, it's the user's
choice whether to expend those cycles or not. (Possibly we should
change the simple bool constraint_exclusion parameter to something
more fine-grained?)
thereby sharing code with the inheritance case. This puts the UNION-ALL-view
approach to partitioned tables on par with inheritance, so far as constraint
exclusion is concerned: it works either way. (Still need to update the docs
to say so.) The definition of "simple UNION ALL" is a little simpler than
I would like --- basically the union arms can only be SELECT * FROM foo
--- but it's good enough for partitioned-table cases.
it later. This fixes a problem where EXEC_BACKEND didn't have progname
set, causing a segfault if log_min_messages was set below debug2 and our
own snprintf.c was being used.
Also alway strdup() progname.
Backpatch to 8.1.X and 8.0.X.
inheritance trees on-the-fly, which pretty well constrained us to considering
only one way of planning inheritance, expand inheritance sets during the
planner prep phase, and build a side data structure that can be consulted
later to find which RTEs are members of which inheritance sets. As proof of
concept, use the data structure to plan joins against inheritance sets more
efficiently: we can now use indexes on the set members in inner-indexscan
joins. (The generated plans could be improved further, but it'll take some
executor changes.) This data structure will also support handling UNION ALL
subqueries in the same way as inheritance sets, but that aspect of it isn't
finished yet.
to avoid sharing substructure with the lower-level indexquals. This is
currently only an issue if there are SubPlans in the indexquals, which is
uncommon but not impossible --- see bug #2218 reported by Nicholas Vinen.
We use the same kluge for indexqual vs indexqualorig in the index scans

requested sort order. It was assuming that build_index_pathkeys always
generates a pathkey per index column, which was not true if implied equality
deduction had determined that two index columns were effectively equated to
each other. Simplest fix seems to be to install an option that causes
build_index_pathkeys to support this behavior as well as the original one.
Per report from Brian Hirt.
While we normally prefer the notation "foo.*" for a whole-row Var, that does
not work at SELECT top level, because in that context the parser will assume
that what is wanted is to expand the "*" into a list of separate target
columns, yielding behavior different from a whole-row Var. We have to emit
just "foo" instead in that context. Per report from Sokolov Yura.
and rely exclusively on the SQL type system to tell the difference between
the types. Prevent creation of invalid CIDR values via casting from INET
or set_masklen() --- both of these operations now silently zero any bits
to the right of the netmask. Remove duplicate CIDR comparison operators,
letting the type rely on the INET operators instead.
just refer to btree index entries as plain IndexTuples, which is what
they have been for a very long time. This is mostly just an exercise
in removing extraneous notation, but it does save a palloc/pfree cycle
per index insertion.
and non-required keys in a btree index scan, mark the required scankeys
with private flag bits SK_BT_REQFWD and/or SK_BT_REQBKWD. This seems
at least marginally clearer to me, and it eliminates a wired-into-the-
data-structure assumption that required keys are consecutive. Even though
that assumption will remain true for the foreseeable future, having it
in there makes the code seem more complex than necessary.
and DELETE. If specified, the alias must be used instead of the full
table name. Also, the alias currently cannot be used in the SET clause
of UPDATE.
Patch from Atsushi Ogawa, various editorialization by Neil Conway.
Along the way, make the rowtypes regression test pass if add_missing_from
is enabled, and add a new (skeletal) regression test for DELETE.
to try to create a log segment file concurrently, but the code erroneously
specified O_EXCL to open(), resulting in a needless failure. Before 7.4,
it was even a PANIC condition :-(. Correct code is actually simpler than
what we had, because we can just say O_CREAT to start with and not need a
second open() call. I believe this accounts for several recent reports of
hard-to-reproduce "could not create file ...: File exists" errors in both
pg_clog and pg_subtrans.

temp table not only our own process' tables. It's not real important
since vacuum.c will skip temp tables anyway, but might as well make the
code do what it claims to do.
index's support-function cache (in index_getprocinfo). Since none of that
data can change for an index that's in active use, it seems sufficient to
treat all open indexes the same way we were treating "nailed" system indexes
--- that is, just re-read the pg_class row and leave the rest of the relcache
entry strictly alone. The pg_class re-read might not be strictly necessary
either, but since the reltablespace and relfilenode can change in normal
operation it seems safest to do it. (We don't support changing any of the
other info about an index at all, at the moment.)
Back-patch as far as 8.0. It might be possible to adapt the patch to 7.4,
but it would take more work than I care to expend for such a low-probability
problem. 7.3 is out of luck for sure.
occurs when it tries to heap_open pg_tablespace. When control returns to
smgrcreate, that routine will be holding a dangling pointer to a closed
SMgrRelation, resulting in mayhem. This is of course a consequence of
the violation of proper module layering inherent in having smgr.c call
a tablespace command routine, but the simplest fix seems to be to change
the locking mechanism. There's no real need for TablespaceCreateDbspace
to touch pg_tablespace at all --- it's only opening it as a way of locking
against a parallel DROP TABLESPACE command. A much better answer is to
create a special-purpose LWLock to interlock these two operations.
This drops TablespaceCreateDbspace quite a few layers down the food chain
and makes it something reasonably safe for smgr to call.
This is utterly insignificant in normal operation, but it becomes a
problem during cache inval stress testing. The original coding in fact
had no leak --- the 8.0 List rewrite created the issue. I wonder whether
list_concat should pfree the discarded header?
files: avoid creating stats hashtable entries for tables that aren't being
touched except by vacuum/analyze, ensure that entries for dropped tables are
removed promptly, and tweak the data layout to avoid storing useless struct
padding. Also improve the performance of pgstat_vacuum_tabstat(), and make
sure that autovacuum invokes it exactly once per autovac cycle rather than
multiple times or not at all. This should cure recent complaints about 8.1
showing much higher stats I/O volume than was seen in 8.0. It'd still be a
good idea to revisit the design with an eye to not re-writing the entire
stats dataset every half second ... but that would be too much to backpatch,
I fear.
cursors. Patch from Joachim Wieland, review and ediorialization by Neil
Conway. The view lists cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR, using SPI, or
via the Bind message of the frontend/backend protocol. This means the
view does not list the unnamed portal or the portal created to implement
EXECUTE. Because we do list SPI portals, there might be more rows in
this view than you might expect if you are using SPI implicitly (e.g.
via a procedural language).
Per recent discussion on -hackers, the query string included in the
view for cursors defined by DECLARE CURSOR is based on
debug_query_string. That means it is not accurate if multiple queries
separated by semicolons are submitted as one query string. However,
there doesn't seem a trivial fix for that: debug_query_string
is better than nothing. I also changed SPI_cursor_open() to include
the source text for the portal it creates: AFAICS there is no reason
not to do this.
Update the documentation and regression tests, bump the catversion.
are two basically different kinds of scankeys, and we ought to try harder
to indicate which is used in each place in the code. I've chosen the names
"search scankey" and "insertion scankey", though you could make about
as good an argument for "operator scankey" and "comparison function
scankey".

data type is unspecified or is declared to be "unknown", the type will

isn't being used anywhere anymore, and there seems no point in a generic
index_keytest() routine when two out of three remaining access methods
aren't using it. Also, add a comment documenting a convention for
letting access methods define private flag bits in ScanKey sk_flags.
There are no such flags at the moment but I'm thinking about changing
btree's handling of "required keys" to use flag bits in the keys
rather than a count of required key positions. Also, if some AM did
still want SK_NEGATE then it would be reasonable to treat it as a private
flag bit.
transaction as aborted. Since we only call XactLockTableWait on XIDs
that we believe to be currently running, the odds of this code ever
actually firing are minimal. It's certainly unnecessary, since a
transaction that's not either running or committed will be presumed
aborted anyway. What's more, it's not hard to imagine scenarios where
this could result in corrupting pg_clog: for instance, if a bogus XID
somehow got passed to XactLockTableWait. I think the code probably
dates from the ancient era when we didn't have TransactionIdIsInProgress;
back then it may have been necessary, but now I think it's a waste of
cycles and potentially dangerous. Per discussion with Qingqing Zhou
and Karsten Hilbert.
permissions on the functions and operators contained in the opclass.
Since we already require superuser privilege to create an operator class,
there's no expansion-of-privilege hazard here, but if someone were to get
the idea of building an opclass containing functions that need security
restrictions, we'd better warn them off. Also, change the permission
checks from have-execute-privilege to have-ownership, and then comment
them all out since they're dead code anyway under the superuser restriction.
type definition. Because use of a type's I/O conversion functions isn't
access-checked, CREATE TYPE amounts to granting public execute permissions
on the functions, and so allowing it to anybody means that someone could
theoretically gain access to a function he's not supposed to be able to
execute. The parameter-type restrictions already enforced by CREATE TYPE
make it fairly unlikely that this oversight is meaningful in practice,
but still it seems like a good idea to plug the hole going forward.
Also, document the implicit grant just in case anybody gets the idea of
building I/O functions that might need security restrictions.
fmgr_info(), in the TopMemoryContext. I couldn't see that the code
actually leaked, but in general I think it's fragile to assume that
pfree'ing an FmgrInfo along with its fn_extra field is enough to
reclaim all the resources allocated by fmgr_info(). I changed the
code to do its allocations in a new child context of
TopMemoryContext, MbProcContext. When we want to release the
allocations we can just reset the context, which is cleaner.
our own command (or more generally, xmin = our xact and cmin >= current
command ID) should not be seen as good. Else we may try to update rows
we already updated. This error was inserted last August while fixing the
even bigger problem that the old coding wouldn't see *any* tuples inserted
by our own transaction as good. Per report from Euler Taveira de Oliveira.
rather than "return expr;" -- the latter style is used in most of the

the return expression was complex.
listed in the column's most-common-values statistics entry. This gives
us an exact selectivity result for the portion of the column population

that's a large fraction of the population. The heuristics involving
pattern contents and prefix are applied only to the part of the population
not included in the MCV list.
and nail a couple more system indexes into cache. This doesn't make
any difference in normal system operation, but when forcing constant
cache resets it's difficult to get through the rules regression test
without these changes.
access information about the prepared statements that are available
in the current session. Original patch from Joachim Wieland, various
improvements by Neil Conway.
The "statement" column of the view contains the literal query string
sent by the client, without any rewriting or pretty printing. This
means that prepared statements created via SQL will be prefixed with
"PREPARE ... AS ", whereas those prepared via the FE/BE protocol will
not. That is unfortunate, but discussion on -patches did not yield an
efficient way to improve this, and there is some merit in returning
exactly what the client sent to the backend.
Catalog version bumped, regression tests updated.

build, testing shows that it's possible for the link to be closed again
if an sinval reset occurs while the index is being built.
dead and have become unreferenced. Before 8.1, such members were left
for AtEOXact_CatCache() to clean up, but now AtEOXact_CatCache isn't
supposed to have anything to do. In an assert-enabled build this bug
leads to an assertion failure at transaction end, but in a non-assert
build the dead member is effectively just a small memory leak.

the relation but it finds a pre-existing valid buffer. The buffer does not
correspond to any page known to the kernel, so we *must* do smgrextend to
ensure that the space becomes allocated. The 7.x branches all do this
correctly, but the corner case got lost somewhere during 8.0 bufmgr rewrites.

previous scan failed partway through the file.

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.

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.
#define HIGHBIT (0x80)
#define IS_HIGHBIT_SET(ch) ((unsigned char)(ch) & HIGHBIT)
and removed CSIGNBIT and mapped it uses to HIGHBIT. I have also added
uses for IS_HIGHBIT_SET where appropriate. This change is
purely for code clarity.
