33e2e02493 Add CVS version labels to all install/uninstall scripts. 2007-11-13 04:24:29 +00:00
Bruce Momjian
926bbab448 Make /contrib install/uninstall script consistent:
remove transactions
	use create or replace function
	make formatting consistent
	set search patch on first line

Add documentation on modifying *.sql to set the search patch, and
mention that major upgrades should still run the installation scripts.

Some of these issues were spotted by Tom today.

282d2a03dd HOT updates. When we update a tuple without changing any of its indexed
columns, and the new version can be stored on the same heap page, we no longer
generate extra index entries for the new version.  Instead, index searches
follow the HOT-chain links to ensure they find the correct tuple version.

In addition, this patch introduces the ability to "prune" dead tuples on a
per-page basis, without having to do a complete VACUUM pass to recover space.
VACUUM is still needed to clean up dead index entries, however.

Pavan Deolasee, with help from a bunch of other people.

6889303531 Redefine the lp_flags field of item pointers as having four states, rather
than two independent bits (one of which was never used in heap pages anyway,
or at least hadn't been in a very long time).  This gives us flexibility to
add the HOT notions of redirected and dead item pointers without requiring
anything so klugy as magic values of lp_off and lp_len.  The state values
are chosen so that for the states currently in use (pre-HOT) there is no
change in the physical representation.

38c75ecf83 Restrict pgstattuple functions to superusers. (This might be too strict,
but no permissions check at all is certainly no good.)  Clean up usage

b13cc9579c The functions bt_metap, bt_page_stats and bt_page_items had moved
from contrib/pgstattuple to pageinspect. We've already fixed English
documentation, but Japanese version does not catch up.

0fef38da21 Tweak hash index AM to use the new ReadOrZeroBuffer bufmgr API when fetching
pages it intends to zero immediately.  Just to show there is some use for that
function besides WAL recovery :-).
Along the way, fold _hash_checkpage and _hash_pageinit calls into _hash_getbuf
and friends, instead of expecting callers to do that separately.

e85a01df67 Clean up the representation of special snapshots by including a "method
pointer" in every Snapshot struct.  This allows removal of the case-by-case
tests in HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility, which should make it a bit faster
(I didn't try any performance tests though).  More importantly, we are no
longer violating portable C practices by assuming that small integers are
distinct from all pointer values, and HeapTupleSatisfiesDirty no longer
has a non-reentrant API involving side-effects on a global variable.

There were a couple of places calling HeapTupleSatisfiesXXX routines
directly rather than through the HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility macro.
Since these places had to be changed anyway, I chose to make them go
through the macro for uniformity.

Along the way I renamed HeapTupleSatisfiesSnapshot to HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC
to emphasize that it's only used with MVCC-type snapshots.  I was sorely
tempted to rename HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility to HeapTupleSatisfiesSnapshot,
but forebore for the moment to avoid confusion and reduce the likelihood that
this patch breaks some of the pending patches.  Might want to reconsider
doing that later.

dab42382f4 Add index information to /contrib/pgstattuple:
This is an extension of pgstattuple to query information from indexes.
It supports btree, hash and gist. Gin is not supported. It scans only
index pages and does not read corresponding heap tuples. Therefore,
'dead_tuple' means the number of tuples with LP_DELETE flag.

Also, I added an experimental feature for btree indexes. It checks
fragmentation factor of indexes. If an leaf has the right link on the
next adjacent page in the file, it is assumed to be continuous (not
fragmented). It will help us to decide when to REINDEX.

9ffc8ed58b Repair possible failure to update hint bits back to disk, per
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-10/msg00464.php.
This fix is intended to be permanent: it moves the responsibility for
calling SetBufferCommitInfoNeedsSave() into the tqual.c routines,
eliminating the requirement for callers to test whether t_infomask changed.
Also, tighten validity checking on buffer IDs in bufmgr.c --- several
routines were paranoid about out-of-range shared buffer numbers but not
about out-of-range local ones, which seems a tad pointless.

4af3421161 Get rid of rd_nblocks field in relcache entries. Turns out this was
costing us lots more to maintain than it was worth.  On shared tables
it was of exactly zero benefit because we couldn't trust it to be
up to date.  On temp tables it sometimes saved an lseek, but not often
enough to be worth getting excited about.  And the real problem was that
we forced an lseek on every relcache flush in order to update the field.
So all in all it seems best to lose the complexity.

375369acd1 Replace TupleTableSlot convention for whole-row variables and function
results with tuples as ordinary varlena Datums.  This commit does not
in itself do much for us, except eliminate the horrid memory leak
associated with evaluation of whole-row variables.  However, it lays the
groundwork for allowing composite types as table columns, and perhaps
some other useful features as well.  Per my proposal of a few days ago.

e4186762ff Adjust nodeFunctionscan.c to reset transient memory context between calls
to the table function, thus preventing memory leakage accumulation across
calls.  This means that SRFs need to be careful to distinguish permanent
and local storage; adjust code and documentation accordingly.  Patch by
Joe Conway, very minor tweaks by Tom Lane.

44fbe20d62 Restructure indexscan API (index_beginscan, index_getnext) per
yesterday's proposal to pghackers.  Also remove unnecessary parameters
to heap_beginscan, heap_rescan.  I modified pg_proc.h to reflect the
new numbers of parameters for the AM interface routines, but did not
force an initdb because nothing actually looks at those fields.
