      Remove partial, broken support for NULL pointers when fetching attributes. · 84b6d5f3
      Robert Haas authored
      Previously, fastgetattr() and heap_getattr() tested their fourth argument
      against a null pointer, but any attempt to use them with a literal-NULL
      fourth argument evaluated to *(void *)0, resulting in a compiler error.
      Remove these NULL tests to avoid leading future readers of this code to
      believe that this has a chance of working.  Also clean up related legacy
      code in nocachegetattr(), heap_getsysattr(), and nocache_index_getattr().
      
      The new coding standard is that any code which calls a getattr-type
      function or macro which takes an isnull argument MUST pass a valid
      boolean pointer.  Per discussion with Bruce Momjian, Tom Lane, Alvaro
      Herrera.

      This should have been part of the original tablespace-options patch, but I
      overlooked the need to update this portion of the documentation.

      Make ExecEvalFieldSelect throw a more intelligible error if it's asked to · 85113bcf
      Tom Lane authored
      extract a system column, and remove a couple of lines that are useless
      in light of the fact that we aren't ever going to support this case.  There
      isn't much point in trying to make this work because a tuple Datum does
      not carry many of the system columns.  Per experimentation with a case
      reported by Dean Rasheed; we'll have to fix his problem somewhere else.

      During Hot Standby, set DatabasePath correctly during relcache init file · 42edbd16
      Simon Riggs authored
      deletion, so that we attempt to unlink the correct filepath. unlink()
      errors are ignorable there, so lack of a DatabasePath initialization step
      did not cause visible problems until a related bug showed up on Solaris.
      
      Code refactored from xact_redo_commit() to
      ProcessCommittedInvalidationMessages() in inval.c. Recovery may replay
      shared invalidation messages for many databases, so we cannot
      SetDatabasePath() once as we do in normal backends. Read the databaseid
      from the shared invalidation messages, then set DatabasePath
      temporarily before calling RelationCacheInitFileInvalidate().
      
      Problem report by Robert Treat, analysis and fix by me.

      Tidy up and refactor plperl.c. · a2b34b16
      Andrew Dunstan authored
      - Changed MULTIPLICITY check from runtime to compiletime.
          No loads the large Config module.
      - Changed plperl_init_interp() to return new interp
          and not alter the global interp_state
      - Moved plperl_safe_init() call into check_interp().
      - Removed plperl_safe_init_done state variable
          as interp_state now covers that role.
      - Changed plperl_create_sub() to take a plperl_proc_desc argument.
      - Simplified return value handling in plperl_create_sub.
      - Changed perl.com link in the docs to perl.org and tweaked
          wording to clarify that require, not use, is what's blocked.
      - Moved perl code in large multi-line C string literal macros
          out to plc_*.pl files.
      - Added a test2macro.pl utility to convert the plc_*.pl files to
          macros in a perlchunks.h file which is #included
      - Simplifed plperl_safe_init() slightly
      - Optimized pg_verifymbstr calls to avoid unneeded strlen()s.
      
      Patch from Tim Bunce, with minor editing from me.

      Fix oversight in EvalPlanQualFetch: after failing to lock a tuple because · 217dc525
      Tom Lane authored
      someone else has just updated it, we have to set priorXmax to that tuple's
      xmax (ie, the XID of the other xact that updated it) before looping back to
      examine the next tuple.  Obviously, the next tuple in the update chain should
      have that XID as its xmin, not the same xmin as the preceding tuple that we
      had been trying to lock.  The mismatch would cause the EvalPlanQual logic to
      decide that the tuple chain ended in a deletion, when actually there was a
      live tuple that should have been found.
      
      I inserted this error when recently adding logic to EvalPlanQual to make it
      lock tuples before returning them (as opposed to the old method in which the
      lock would occur much later, causing a great deal of work to be wasted if we
      only then discover someone else updated it).  Sigh.  Per today's report from
      Takahiro Itagaki of inconsistent results during pgbench runs.

      Add buffer access counters to pg_stat_statements. · 8964dbd5
      Itagaki Takahiro authored
      This uses the same infrastructure with EXPLAIN BUFFERS to support
      {shared|local}_blks_{hit|read|written} andtemp_blks_{read|written}
      columns in the pg_stat_statements view. The dumped file format
      also updated.
      
      Thanks to Robert Haas for the review.
