This prevents needing to do complex and poorly-defined updates of the
mapping table if the new parser has different token types than the old.
Per discussion.
init options of the template as top-level options in the syntax. This also
makes ALTER a bit easier to use, since options can be replaced individually.
I also made these statements verify that the tmplinit method will accept
the new settings before they get stored; in the original coding you didn't
find out about mistakes until the dictionary got invoked.
Under the hood, init methods now get options as a List of DefElem instead
of a raw text string --- that lets tsearch use existing options-pushing code
instead of duplicating functionality.
'with map' parameter; as things now stand there's really not much point
in specifying a config-to-copy if you don't copy its map. Also, use
COPY instead of TEMPLATE as the key word for a config-to-copy, so as
to avoid confusion with text search templates. Per discussion; the
just-committed reference page for the command already describes it
this way.
pages for the new SQL commands. I also committed Bruce's text search
introductory chapter, as-is except for fixing some markup errors,
so that there would be a place for the reference pages to link to.
There's not much point in prettifying machine-generated code, and it
seems best to keep these files exactly like upstream anyway. Also add
some notes about why various files are excluded.
byte after the last full byte of the bit array, regardless of whether that
byte was part of the valid data or not. Found by buildfarm testing.
Thanks to Stefan Kaltenbrunner for nailing down the cause.
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.
are not one of the query's defined result relations, but nonetheless have
triggers fired against them while the query is active. This was formerly
impossible but can now occur because of my recent patch to fix the firing
order for RI triggers. Caching a ResultRelInfo avoids duplicating work by
repeatedly opening and closing the same relation, and also allows EXPLAIN
ANALYZE to "see" and report on these extra triggers. Use the same mechanism
to cache open relations when firing deferred triggers at transaction shutdown;
this replaces the former one-element-cache strategy used in that case, and
should improve performance a bit when there are deferred triggers on a number
of relations.
row within one query: we were firing check triggers before all the updates
were done, leading to bogus failures. Fix by making the triggers queued by
an RI update go at the end of the outer query's trigger event list, thereby
effectively making the processing "breadth-first". This was indeed how it
worked pre-8.0, so the bug does not occur in the 7.x branches.
Per report from Pavel Stehule.

that still thought they could set HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED immediately after
seeing the other transaction commit. Make them use the same logic as
tqual.c does to determine if the hint bit can be set yet.
- Really prepare statements
- Added more regression tests
- Added auto-prepare mode
- Use '$n' for positional variables, '?' is still possible via ecpg option
- Cleaned up the sources a little bit
First, we cannot assume that XLogAsyncCommitFlush guarantees hint bits will be
settable, because clog.c's inexact LSN bookkeeping results in windows where a
previously flushed transaction is considered unhintable because it shares an
LSN slot with a later unflushed transaction. But repair_frag requires
XMIN_COMMITTED to be correct so that it can distinguish tuples moved by the
current vacuum. Since not being able to set the bit is an uncommon corner
case, the most practical way of dealing with it seems to be to abandon
shrinking (ie, don't invoke repair_frag) when we find a non-dead tuple whose
XMIN_COMMITTED bit couldn't be set.
Second, it is possible for the same reason that a RECENTLY_DEAD tuple does not
get its XMAX_COMMITTED bit set during scan_heap. But by the time repair_frag
examines the tuple it might be possible to set the bit. We therefore must
take buffer content lock when calling HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum a second time,
else we can get an Assert failure in SetBufferCommitInfoNeedsSave. This
latter bug is latent in existing releases, but I think it cannot actually
occur without async commit, since the first HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum call
should always have set the bit. So I'm not going to back-patch it.
In passing, reduce the existing "cannot shrink relation" messages from NOTICE
to LOG level. The new message must be no higher than LOG if we don't want
unpredictable regression test failures, and consistency seems like a good
idea. Also arrange that only one such message is reported per VACUUM FULL;
in typical scenarios you could get spammed with many such messages, which
seems a bit useless.
certain corner cases. Per discussion, the code does what we want, but
it really needs to be documented that these functions act differently
from regexp_matches.
enlarge the memory chunk in-place when it was feasible to do so. This turns
out to not work well at all for scenarios involving repeated cycles of
palloc/repalloc/pfree: the eventually freed chunks go into the wrong freelist
for the next initial palloc request, and so we consume memory indefinitely.
While that could be defended against, the number of cases where the
optimization can still be applied drops significantly, and adjusting the
initial sizes of StringInfo buffers makes it drop to almost nothing.
Seems better to just remove the extra complexity.
Per recent discussion and testing.
likewise increase the initial size of the scanner's literal buffer to 1024
(from 128). Instrumentation of the regression tests suggests that this
saves a useful amount of repalloc() traffic --- the number of calls occurring
during one set of tests drops from about 6900 to about 3900. The old sizes
were chosen in the late 90's with an eye to machines much smaller than
are common today.
regexp_split_to_table() within a single query. This is only a partial
solution, as it turns out that with enough matches per string these
functions can also tickle a repalloc() misbehavior. But fixing that
is a topic for a separate patch.
that cached compiled patterns will still be there when the function is next
called. Clean up looping logic, thereby fixing bug identified by Pavel
Stehule. Share setup code between the two functions, add some comments, and
avoid risky mixing of int and size_t variables. Clean up the documentation a
tad, and accept all the flag characters mentioned in table 9-19 rather than
just a subset.
constant flow of new connection requests could prevent the postmaster from
completing a shutdown or crash restart. This is done by labeling child
processes that are "dead ends", that is, we know that they were launched only
to tell a client that it can't connect. These processes are managed
separately so that they don't confuse us into thinking that we can't advance
to the next stage of a shutdown or restart sequence, until the very end
where we must wait for them to drain out so we can delete the shmem segment.
Per discussion of a misbehavior reported by Keaton Adams.
Since this code was baroque already, and my first attempt at fixing the
problem made it entirely impenetrable, I took the opportunity to rewrite it
in a state-machine style. That eliminates some duplicated code sections and
hopefully makes everything a bit clearer.
