Tom Lane [Sat, 25 Apr 2009 16:44:56 +0000 (16:44 +0000)]
Fix the handling of sub-SELECTs appearing in the arguments of an outer-level
aggregate function.  By definition, such a sub-SELECT cannot reference any
variables of query levels between itself and the aggregate's semantic level
(else the aggregate would've been assigned to that lower level instead).
So the correct, most efficient implementation is to treat the sub-SELECT as
being a sub-select of that outer query level, not the level the aggregate
syntactically appears in.  Not doing so also confuses the heck out of our
parameter-passing logic, as illustrated in bug report from Daniel Grace.

Fortunately, we were already copying the whole Aggref expression up to the
outer query level, so all that's needed is to delay SS_process_sublinks
processing of the sub-SELECT until control returns to the outer level.

This has been broken since we introduced spec-compliant treatment of
outer aggregates in 7.4; so patch all the way back.

15 years agoRevise plpgsql's scanner to process comments and string literals in a way

Revise plpgsql's scanner to process comments and string literals in a way
more nearly matching the core SQL scanner.  The user-visible effects are:

* Block comments (slash-star comments) now nest, as per SQL spec.

* In standard_conforming_strings mode, backslash as the last character of a
  non-E string literal is now correctly taken as an ordinary character;
  formerly it was misinterpreted as escaping the ending quote.  (Since the
  string also had to pass through the core scanner, this invariably led
  to syntax errors.)

* Formerly, backslashes in the format string of RAISE were always treated as
  quoting the next character, regardless of mode.  Now, they are ordinary
  characters with standard_conforming_strings on, while with it off, they
  introduce the same set of escapes as in the core SQL scanner.  Also,
  escape_string_warning is now effective for RAISE format strings.  These
  changes make RAISE format strings work just like any other string literal.

This is implemented by copying and pasting a lot of logic from the core
scanner.  It would be a good idea to look into getting rid of plpgsql's
scanner entirely in favor of using the core scanner.  However, that involves
more change than I can justify making during beta --- in particular, the core
scanner would have to become re-entrant.

In passing, remove the kluge that made the plpgsql scanner emit T_FUNCTION or
T_TRIGGER as a made-up first token.  That presumably had some value once upon
a time, but now it's just useless complication for both the scanner and the
grammar.

not sure it's worth back-patching.  In most cases failure of the DROP

Tom Lane [Thu, 9 Apr 2009 02:57:53 +0000 (02:57 +0000)]
Fix the plpgsql memory leak exhibited in bug #4677.  That leak was introduced
by my patch of 2007-01-28 to use per-subtransaction ExprContexts/EStates:
since we re-prepared any expression tree when the current subtransaction ID
changed, we'd accumulate more and more leaked expression state trees in the
outermost subtransaction if the same function was executed at multiple levels
of subtransaction nesting.  To fix, go back to the previous scheme where
there was only one EState per transaction for simple plpgsql expressions.
We really only need an ExprContext per subtransaction, not a whole EState,
so it's possible to keep prepared expression state trees in the one EState
throughout the transaction.  This should be more efficient as well as not
leaking memory for cases involving lots of subtransactions.

The added regression test is the case that inspired the 2007-01-28 patch in
the first place, just to make sure we didn't go backwards.  The current
memory leak complaint is unfortunately hard to test for in the regression
test framework, though manual testing shows it's fixed.

Although this is a pre-existing bug, I'm not back-patching because I'd like to
see this method get some field testing first.  Consider back-patching if it
gets through 8.4beta unscathed.
