* Fix incorrect comment about permissions checking being done in utility.c.Robert Haas2010-03-10
| | | | Noted while reviewing a patch from KaiGai Kohei.
* pg_start_backup() can use a share lock to lock ControlFileLockItagaki Takahiro2010-03-10
| | | | | | | | | instead of an exclusive lock. The change is almost for code cleanup. Since there seems to be no performance benefits from it, backports should not be needed. Fujii Masao
* Preliminary release notes for releases 8.4.3, 8.3.10, 8.2.16, 8.1.20, 8.0.24,Tom Lane2010-03-10
| | | | 7.4.28.
* Use SvROK(sv) rather than directly checking SvTYPE(sv) == SVt_RV in plperl.Tom Lane2010-03-09
| | | | | | | | The latter is considered unwarranted chumminess with the implementation, and can lead to crashes with recent Perl versions. Report and fix by Tim Bunce. Back-patch to all versions containing the questionable coding pattern.
* Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2010d: DST law changes in Fiji,Alvaro Herrera2010-03-09
| | | | Samoa, Chile; corrections to recent changes in Paraguay and Bangladesh.
* ecpg now adds a unique counter to its varchar struct definitions to make ↵Michael Meskes2010-03-09
| | | | these definitions unique, too. It used to use the linenumber but in the rare case of two definitions in one line this was not unique.
* Add checks for valid encoding of query strings passed to SPI by plperl.Andrew Dunstan2010-03-09

* Return proper exit code (3) from psql when ON_ERROR_STOP=on andBruce Momjian2010-03-08
| | | | | | | | --single-transaction are both used and the failure happens in commit, e.g. failed deferred trigger. Also properly free BEGIN/COMMIT result structures from --single-transaction. Per report from Dominic Bevacqua
* Add missing space in example.Magnus Hagander2010-03-08

* Better test the content of the SQLSTATE string in ecpglib than the pointer.Michael Meskes2010-03-08

* Require hostname to be set when using GSSAPI authentication. Without it,Magnus Hagander2010-03-08
| | | | | | the GSSAPI libraries crash. Noted by Zdenek Kotala
* Disallow gssapi authentication on local connections, since itMagnus Hagander2010-03-08
| | | | | | requires a hostname to function. Noted by Zdenek Kotala

* Revert patch for --psqlrc=FILENAME in psql.Magnus Hagander2010-03-07
|
* Fix warning messages in restrict_and_check_grant() to include the column nameTom Lane2010-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | when warning about column-level privileges. This is more useful than before and makes the apparent duplication complained of by Piyush Newe not so duplicate. Also fix lack of quote marks in a related message text. Back-patch to 8.4, where column-level privileges were introduced. Stephen Frost
* Add --psqlrc=FILENAME parameter to psql, to process an explicitly namedMagnus Hagander2010-03-06
| | | | file instead of ~/.psqlrc on startup.
* When reading pg_hba.conf and similar files, do not treat @file as an inclusionTom Lane2010-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unless (1) the @ isn't quoted and (2) the filename isn't empty. This guards against unexpectedly treating usernames or other strings in "flat files" as inclusion requests, as seen in a recent trouble report from Ed L. The empty-filename case would be guaranteed to misbehave anyway, because our subsequent path-munging behavior results in trying to read the directory containing the current input file. I think this might finally explain the report at http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2004-05/msg00132.php of a crash after printing "authentication file token too long, skipping", since I was able to duplicate that message (though not a crash) on a platform where stdio doesn't refuse to read directories. We never got far in investigating that problem, but now I'm suspicious that the trigger condition was an @ in the flat password file. Back-patch to all active branches since the problem can be demonstrated in all branches except HEAD. The test case, creating a user named "@", doesn't cause a problem in HEAD since we got rid of the flat password file. Nonetheless it seems like a good idea to not consider quoted @ as a file inclusion spec, so I changed HEAD too.
* In case the connection magically disappears libecpg only returns an internalMichael Meskes2010-03-05
| | | | error sqlstate. This change makes it return a correct value..
* Fix IsBinaryCoercible to not confuse a cast using in/out functionsHeikki Linnakangas2010-03-04
| | | | | | with binary compatibility. Backpatch to 8.4 where INOUT casts were introduced.
* Add C comment about DDL changes possibly causing pg_dump errors.Bruce Momjian2010-03-03
|
* Document that "Q" is ignored by to_date and to_timestamp. Add C commentBruce Momjian2010-03-03
| | | | | | | about the behavior. Document that quotes in to_date, to_timestamp, to_number skip input characters.
* Fix a couple of places that would loop forever if attempts to read a stdio fileTom Lane2010-03-03
| | | | | | | set ferror() but never set feof(). This is known to be the case for recent glibc when trying to read a directory as a file, and might be true for other platforms/cases too. Per report from Ed L. (There is more that we ought to do about his report, but this is one easily identifiable issue.)
* Fix pg_dump of ACLs of foreign servers. The command to grant/revokeHeikki Linnakangas2010-03-03
| | | | privileges of foreign servers is "GRANT ... ON *FOREIGN* SERVER ...".
* Make contrib/xml2 use core xml.c's error handler, when available (that is,Tom Lane2010-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | in versions >= 8.3). The core code is more robust and efficient than what was there before, and this also reduces risks involved in swapping different libxml error handler settings. Before 8.3, there is still some risk of problems if add-on modules such as Perl invoke libxml without setting their own error handler. Given the lack of reports I'm not sure there's a risk in practice, so I didn't take the step of actually duplicating the core code into older contrib/xml2 branches. Instead I just tweaked the existing code to ensure it didn't leave a dangling pointer to short-lived memory when throwing an error.
* Export xml.c's libxml-error-handling support so that contrib/xml2 can use itTom Lane2010-03-03
| | | | | | | | | too, instead of duplicating the functionality (badly). I renamed xml_init to pg_xml_init, because the former seemed just a bit too generic to be safe as a global symbol. I considered likewise renaming xml_ereport to pg_xml_ereport, but felt that the reference to ereport probably made it sufficiently PG-centric already.
* Make iconv work like other optional libraries for MSVC.Andrew Dunstan2010-03-03

* Fix SGML markup.Bruce Momjian2010-03-03
|
* Restructure CREATE FUNCTION "NOTES" section to be shorter; move itemsBruce Momjian2010-03-03
| | | | into proper sections, per suggestion from Tom.
* Instead of trying (and failing) to allow <<label>> at the end of a DECLARETom Lane2010-03-03
| | | | | | | | section, throw an error message saying explicitly that the label must go before DECLARE. Per investigation of a recent pgsql-novice question, this code did not work as intended in any modern PG version, maybe not ever. Allowing such a thing would only create ambiguity anyway, so it seems better to remove it than fix it.
* Adjust max_standby_delay documentation to be clearer, and mention thatBruce Momjian2010-03-02
| | | | | two adjacent long-running queries have much less than max_standby_delay before query cancel is possible.
* Add missing library and include dir for XSLT in MSVC buildsAndrew Dunstan2010-03-02
|
* Document the effect of max_standby_delay on increasing the delay of dataBruce Momjian2010-03-02
| | | | | from master to slave, and discourage its use during slave/master keep-xid-alive connections.
* Update keywords list for 9.0Peter Eisentraut2010-03-02

* Do not run regression tests for contrib/xml2 on MSVC unless building with XMLAndrew Dunstan2010-03-02
|
* Cause plpgsql to throw an error if "INTO rowtype_var" is followed by a comma.Tom Lane2010-03-02
| | | | | | Per bug #5352, this helps to provide a useful error message if the user tries to do something presently unsupported, namely use a rowtype variable as a member of a multiple-item INTO list.
* Add XSLT defines for MSVC buildsAndrew Dunstan2010-03-02

* Fix translation of strings in psql \d output (translation in headers worked,Heikki Linnakangas2010-03-01
| | | | but not in cells).
* Fix numericlocale psql option when used with a null string and latex and troffHeikki Linnakangas2010-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | formats; a null string must not be formatted as a numeric. The more exotic formats latex and troff also incorrectly formatted all strings as numerics when numericlocale was on. Backpatch to 8.1 where numericlocale option was added. This fixes bug #5355 reported by Andy Lester.
* Fix contrib/xml2 so regression test still works when it's built without libxslt.Tom Lane2010-03-01
| | | | | | | This involves modifying the module to have a stable ABI, that is, the xslt_process() function still exists even without libxslt. It throws a runtime error if called, but doesn't prevent executing the CREATE FUNCTION call. This is a good thing anyway to simplify cross-version upgrades.
* It's clearly now pointless to do backwards compatible parsing of this,Magnus Hagander2010-03-01
| | | | | since we released a version without it, so remove the comment that says we might want to do that.
* Buildfarm still unhappy, so I'll bet it's EACCES not EPERM.Tom Lane2010-03-01
|
* Remove xmlCleanupParser calls from contrib/xml2.Tom Lane2010-03-01
| | | | | | | These are unnecessary and probably dangerous. I don't see any immediate risk situations in the core XML support or contrib/xml2 itself, but there could be issues with external uses of libxml2, and in any case it's an accident waiting to happen.
* add EPERM to the list of return codes to expect from opening directories ↵Greg Stark2010-03-01
| | | | based on Vista results
* Fix up memory management problems in contrib/xml2.Tom Lane2010-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Get rid of the code that attempted to funnel libxml2's memory allocations into palloc. We already knew from experience with the core xml datatype that trying to do this is simply not reliable. Unlike the core code, I did not bother adding a lot of PG_TRY/PG_CATCH logic to try to ensure that everything is cleaned up on error exit. Hence, we might leak some memory if one of these functions fails partway through. Given the deprecated status of this contrib module and the fact that errors partway through the functions shouldn't be too common, it doesn't seem worth worrying about. Also fix a separate bug in xpath_table, that it did the wrong things if given a result tuple descriptor with less than 2 columns. While such a case isn't very useful in practice, we shouldn't fail or stomp memory when it occurs. Add some simple regression tests based on all the reported crash cases that I have on hand. This should be back-patched, but let's see if the buildfarm likes it first.
* Second try at fsyncing directories in CREATE DATABASE. Let's see what the ↵Greg Stark2010-02-28

* Assorted code cleanup for contrib/xml2. No change in functionality,Tom Lane2010-02-28

* Insert a hack into get_float8_nan (both core and ecpg copies) to deal withTom Lane2010-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | the fact that NetBSD/mips is currently broken, as per buildfarm member pika. Also add regression tests to ensure that get_float8_nan and get_float4_nan are exercised even on platforms where they are not needed by float8in/float4in. Zoltán Böszörményi and Tom Lane
