      Silence a few compiler warnings from gcc on MinGW. · d98711df
      Andrew Dunstan authored
      Most of these cast DWORD to int or unsigned int for printf type handling.
      This is safe even on 64 bit architectures because a DWORD is always 32 bits.
      
      In one case a variable is initialised to keep the compiler happy.

      Hash indexes had better pass the index collation to support functions, too. · a0b75a41

      it'll be passed a collation.

      Adjust comments about collate.linux.utf8 regression test. · 1abd146d
      Tom Lane authored
      This test should now work in any database with UTF8 encoding, regardless
      of the database's default locale.  The former restriction was really
      "doesn't work if default locale is C", and that was because of not handling
      mbstowcs/wcstombs correctly.

      Fix char2wchar/wchar2char to support collations properly. · 2ab0796d
      Tom Lane authored
      These functions should take a pg_locale_t, not a collation OID, and should
      call mbstowcs_l/wcstombs_l where available.  Where those functions are not
      available, temporarily select the correct locale with uselocale().
      
      This change removes the bogus assumption that all locales selectable in
      a given database have the same wide-character conversion method; in
      particular, the collate.linux.utf8 regression test now passes with
      LC_CTYPE=C, so long as the database encoding is UTF8.
      
      I decided to move the char2wchar/wchar2char functions out of mbutils.c and
      into pg_locale.c, because they work on wchar_t not pg_wchar_t and thus
      don't really belong with the mbutils.c functions.  Keeping them where they
      were would have required importing pg_locale_t into pg_wchar.h somehow,
      which did not seem like a good plan.

      Tom Lane authored
      Make use of the collation attached to the index column, instead of
      hard-wiring DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID.  (Note: in theory this could require
      reindexing btree_gist indexes on textual columns, but I rather doubt anyone
      has one with a non-default declared collation as yet.)

      Make GIN and GIST pass the index collation to all their support functions. · ae20bf17
      Tom Lane authored
      Experimentation with contrib/btree_gist shows that the majority of the GIST
      support functions potentially need collation information.  Safest policy
      seems to be to pass it to all of them, instead of making assumptions about
      which ones could possibly need it.

      De-kludge contrib/btree_gin for collations. · 474ff212
      Tom Lane authored
      Using DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID in the comparePartial functions was not only
      a lame hack, but outright wrong, because the compare functions for
      collation-aware types were already responding to the declared index
      collation.  So comparePartial would have the wrong expectation about
      the index's sort order, possibly leading to missing matches for prefix
      searches.

      Allow ALTER TABLE name {OF type | NOT OF}. · 68739ba8
      Robert Haas authored
      This syntax allows a standalone table to be made into a typed table,
      or a typed table to be made standalone.  This is possibly a mildly
      useful feature in its own right, but the real motivation for this
      change is that we need it to make pg_upgrade work with typed tables.
      This doesn't actually fix that problem, but it's necessary
      infrastructure.

      Fix bugs in indexing of in-doubt HOT-updated tuples. · 520bcd9c
      Tom Lane authored
      If we find a DELETE_IN_PROGRESS HOT-updated tuple, it is impossible to know
      whether to index it or not except by waiting to see if the deleting
      transaction commits.  If it doesn't, the tuple might again be LIVE, meaning
      we have to index it.  So wait and recheck in that case.
      
      Also, we must not rely on ii_BrokenHotChain to decide that it's possible to
      omit tuples from the index.  That could result in omitting tuples that we
      need, particularly in view of yesterday's fixes to not necessarily set
      indcheckxmin (but it's broken even without that, as per my analysis today).
      Since this is just an extremely marginal performance optimization, dropping
      the test shouldn't hurt.
      
      These cases are only expected to happen in system catalogs (they're
      possible there due to early release of RowExclusiveLock in most
      catalog-update code paths).  Since reindexing of a system catalog isn't a
      particularly performance-critical operation anyway, there's no real need to
      be concerned about possible performance degradation from these changes.
      
      The worst aspects of this bug were introduced in 9.0 --- 8.x will always
      wait out a DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuple.  But I think dropping index entries
      on the strength of ii_BrokenHotChain is dangerous even without that, so
      back-patch removal of that optimization to 8.3 and 8.4.

      Set indcheckxmin true when REINDEX fixes an invalid or not-ready index. · 9ad7e155
      Tom Lane authored
      Per comment from Greg Stark, it's less clear that HOT chains don't conflict
      with the index than it would be for a valid index.  So, let's preserve the
      former behavior that indcheckxmin does get set when there are
      potentially-broken HOT chains in this case.  This change does not cause any
      pg_index update that wouldn't have happened anyway, so we're not
      re-introducing the previous bug with pg_index updates, and surely the case
      is not significant from a performance standpoint; so let's be as
      conservative as possible.

      Make plan_cluster_use_sort cope with no IndexOptInfo for the target index. · 5b8e4429
      Tom Lane authored
      The original coding assumed that such a case represents caller error, but
      actually get_relation_info will omit generating an IndexOptInfo for any
      index it thinks is unsafe to use.  Therefore, handle this case by returning
      "true" to indicate that a seqscan-and-sort is the preferred way to
      implement the CLUSTER operation.  New bug in 9.1, no backpatch needed.
      Per bug #5985 from Daniel Grace.

      Fix PL/Python traceback for error in separate file · 395fcac2
      Peter Eisentraut authored
      It assumed that the lineno from the traceback always refers to the

      some code, runs it, and that code raises an exception, PLy_traceback
      would get utterly confused.
      
      Now we look at the file name reported with the traceback and only
      print the source line if it came from the PL/Python function.

      just fix the escaping. Earlier versions didn't have locale names in bki

      Throw error for mismatched pg_upgrade clusters · 7228d029
      Bruce Momjian authored
      If someone removes the 'postgres' database from the old cluster and the
      new cluster has a 'postgres' database, the number of databases will not
      match.  We actually could upgrade such a setup, but it would violate the
      1-to-1 mapping of database counts, so we throw an error instead.
      
      Previously they got an error during the upgrade, and not at the check
      stage; PG 9.0.4 does the same.

      Avoid changing an index's indcheckxmin horizon during REINDEX. · 8c19977e
      Tom Lane authored
      There can never be a need to push the indcheckxmin horizon forward, since
      any HOT chains that are actually broken with respect to the index must
      pre-date its original creation.  So we can just avoid changing pg_index
      altogether during a REINDEX operation.
      
      This offers a cleaner solution than my previous patch for the problem
      found a few days ago that we mustn't try to update pg_index while we are
      reindexing it.  System catalog indexes will always be created with
      indcheckxmin = false during initdb, and with this modified code we should
      never try to change their pg_index entries.  This avoids special-casing
      system catalogs as the former patch did, and should provide a performance
      benefit for many cases where REINDEX formerly caused an index to be
      considered unusable for a short time.
      
      Back-patch to 8.3 to cover all versions containing HOT.  Note that this
      patch changes the API for index_build(), but I believe it is unlikely that
      any add-on code is calling that directly.

      Fix handling of collations in multi-row VALUES constructs. · 918854cc
      Tom Lane authored
      Per spec we ought to apply select_common_collation() across the expressions
      in each column of the VALUES table.  The original coding was just taking
      the first row and assuming it was representative.
      
      This patch adds a field to struct RangeTblEntry to carry the resolved
      collations, so initdb is forced for changes in stored rule representation.

      This also ensures that we take a relation lock on the composite type when

      Before commit c016ce72, this wasn't
      needed, but now that multiple resource manager IDs can percolate down

      Fix assorted infelicities in collation handling in psql's describe.c. · c29abc8b
      Tom Lane authored
      In \d, be more careful to print collation only if it's not the default for
      the column's data type.  Avoid assuming that the name "default" is magic.
      
      Fix \d on a composite type so that it will print per-column collations.
      It's no longer the case that a composite type cannot have modifiers.
      (In consequence, the expected outputs for composite-type regression tests
      change.)
      
      Fix \dD so that it will print collation for a domain, again only if it's
      not the same as the base type's collation.
