* Fix map_sql_value_to_xml_value() to treat domains like their base types.Tom Lane2013-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | This was already the case for domains over arrays, but not for domains over certain built-in types such as boolean. The special formatting rules for those types should apply to domains over them as well. Per discussion. While this is a bug fix, it's also a behavioral change that seems likely to trip up some applications. So no back-patch. Pavel Stehule
* Add a materialized view relations.Kevin Grittner2013-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A materialized view has a rule just like a view and a heap and other physical properties like a table. The rule is only used to populate the table, references in queries refer to the materialized data. This is a minimal implementation, but should still be useful in many cases. Currently data is only populated "on demand" by the CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW and REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW statements. It is expected that future releases will add incremental updates with various timings, and that a more refined concept of defining what is "fresh" data will be developed. At some point it may even be possible to have queries use a materialized in place of references to underlying tables, but that requires the other above-mentioned features to be working first. Much of the documentation work by Robert Haas. Review by Noah Misch, Thom Brown, Robert Haas, Marko Tiikkaja Security review by KaiGai Kohei, with a decision on how best to implement sepgsql still pending.
* Allow CREATE TABLE IF EXIST so succeed if the schema is nonexistentBruce Momjian2013-01-26
| | | | | | Previously, CREATE TABLE IF EXIST threw an error if the schema was nonexistent. This was done by passing 'missing_ok' to the function that looks up the schema oid.
* Update copyrights for 2013Bruce Momjian2013-01-01
| | | | | Fully update git head, and update back branches in ./COPYRIGHT and legal.sgml files.
* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.
* Check LIBXML_VERSION instead of testing in configure script.Tom Lane2012-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | We had put a test for libxml2's xmlStructuredErrorContext variable in configure, but of course that doesn't work on Windows builds. The next best alternative seems to be to test the LIBXML_VERSION symbol provided by xmlversion.h. Per report from Talha Bin Rizwan, though this fixes it in a different way than his proposed patch.
* Prevent access to external files/URLs via XML entity references.Tom Lane2012-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xml_parse() would attempt to fetch external files or URLs as needed to resolve DTD and entity references in an XML value, thus allowing unprivileged database users to attempt to fetch data with the privileges of the database server. While the external data wouldn't get returned directly to the user, portions of it could be exposed in error messages if the data didn't parse as valid XML; and in any case the mere ability to check existence of a file might be useful to an attacker. The ideal solution to this would still allow fetching of references that are listed in the host system's XML catalogs, so that documents can be validated according to installed DTDs. However, doing that with the available libxml2 APIs appears complex and error-prone, so we're not going to risk it in a security patch that necessarily hasn't gotten wide review. So this patch merely shuts off all access, causing any external fetch to silently expand to an empty string. A future patch may improve this. In HEAD and 9.2, also suppress warnings about undefined entities, which would otherwise occur as a result of not loading referenced DTDs. Previous branches don't show such warnings anyway, due to different error handling arrangements. Credit to Noah Misch for first reporting the problem, and for much work towards a solution, though this simplistic approach was not his preference. Also thanks to Daniel Veillard for consultation.

* Add const qualifier to tzn returned by timestamp2tm()Peter Eisentraut2012-03-15
| | | | | The tzn value might come from tm->tm_zone, which libc declares as const, so it's prudent that the upper layers know about this as well.

* Check to see whether libxml2 handles error context the way we expect.Tom Lane2011-07-26
| | | | | | | It turns out to be possible to link against a libxml2.so that does this differently than the version we configured and built against, so we need a runtime check to avoid bizarre behavior. Per report from Bernd Helmle. Patch by Florian Pflug.
* Make xpath() do something useful with XPath expressions that return scalars.Tom Lane2011-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, xpath() simply returned an empty array if the expression did not yield a node set. This is useless for expressions that return scalars, such as one with name() at the top level. Arrange to return the scalar value as a single-element xml array, instead. (String values will be suitably escaped.) This change will also cause xpath_exists() to return true, not false, for such expressions. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura
* Ensure that xpath() escapes special characters in string values.Tom Lane2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | Without this it's possible for the output to not be legal XML, as illustrated by the added regression test cases. NB: this change will need to be called out as an incompatibility in the 9.2 release notes, since it's possible somebody was relying on the old behavior, even though it's clearly wrong. Florian Pflug, reviewed by Radoslaw Smogura
* Rewrite libxml error handling to be more robust.Tom Lane2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libxml reports some errors (like invalid xmlns attributes) via the error handler hook, but still returns a success indicator to the library caller. This causes us to miss some errors that are important to report. Since the "generic" error handler hook doesn't know whether the message it's getting is for an error, warning, or notice, stop using that and instead start using the "structured" error handler hook, which gets enough information to be useful. While at it, arrange to save and restore the error handler hook setting in each libxml-using function, rather than assuming we can set and forget the hook. This should improve the odds of working nicely with third-party libraries that also use libxml. In passing, volatile-ize some local variables that get modified within PG_TRY blocks. I noticed this while testing with an older gcc version than I'd previously tried to compile xml.c with. Florian Pflug and Tom Lane, with extensive review/testing by Noah Misch
* Replace errdetail("%s", ...) with errdetail_internal("%s", ...).Tom Lane2011-07-16
| | | | | | There may be some other places where we should use errdetail_internal, but they'll have to be evaluated case-by-case. This commit just hits a bunch of places where invoking gettext is obviously a waste of cycles.
* Move Trigger and TriggerDesc structs out of rel.h into a new reltrigger.hAlvaro Herrera2011-07-04
| | | | | This lets us stop including rel.h into execnodes.h, which is a widely used header.
* Fix null-dereference crash in parse_xml_decl().Tom Lane2011-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | parse_xml_decl's header comment says you can pass NULL for any unwanted output parameter, but it failed to honor this contract for the "standalone" flag. The only currently-affected caller is xml_recv, so the net effect is that sending a binary XML value containing a standalone parameter in its xml declaration would crash the backend. Per bug #6044 from Christopher Dillard. In passing, remove useless initializations of parse_xml_decl's output parameters in xml_parse. Back-patch to 8.3, where this code was introduced.

* Improve handling of domains over arrays.Tom Lane2010-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch eliminates various bizarre behaviors caused by sloppy thinking about the difference between a domain type and its underlying array type. In particular, the operation of updating one element of such an array has to be considered as yielding a value of the underlying array type, *not* a value of the domain, because there's no assurance that the domain's CHECK constraints are still satisfied. If we're intending to store the result back into a domain column, we have to re-cast to the domain type so that constraints are re-checked. For similar reasons, such a domain can't be blindly matched to an ANYARRAY polymorphic parameter, because the polymorphic function is likely to apply array-ish operations that could invalidate the domain constraints. For the moment, we just forbid such matching. We might later wish to insert an automatic downcast to the underlying array type, but such a change should also change matching of domains to ANYELEMENT for consistency. To ensure that all such logic is rechecked, this patch removes the original hack of setting a domain's pg_type.typelem field to match its base type; the typelem will always be zero instead. In those places where it's really okay to look through the domain type with no other logic changes, use the newly added get_base_element_type function in place of get_element_type. catversion bumped due to change in pg_type contents. Per bug #5717 from Richard Huxton and subsequent discussion.

* 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.
* Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas2010-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists, GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code shorter, too. Design and review by Tom Lane.

* Fix encoding handling in xml binary input function. If the XML header didn'tHeikki Linnakangas2009-09-04

* Ensure xmlFree(NULL) is a no-op instead of a core dump. Per report fromTom Lane2009-06-10
| | | | | | | | | Sergey Burladyan, there are at least some dank corners of libxml2 that assume this behavior, even though their published documentation suggests they shouldn't. This is only really a live problem in 8.3, but the code is still there for possible debugging use in HEAD, so patch both branches.

* Rewrite xml.c's memory management (yet again). Give up on the idea ofTom Lane2009-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | redirecting libxml's allocations into a Postgres context. Instead, just let it use malloc directly, and add PG_TRY blocks as needed to be sure we release libxml data structures in error recovery code paths. This is ugly but seems much more likely to play nicely with third-party uses of libxml, as seen in recent trouble reports about using Perl XML facilities in pl/perl and bug #4774 about contrib/xml2. I left the code for allocation redirection in place, but it's only built/used if you #define USE_LIBXMLCONTEXT. This is because I found it useful to corral libxml's allocations in a palloc context when hunting for libxml memory leaks, and we're surely going to have more of those in the future with this type of approach. But we don't want it turned on in a normal build because it breaks exactly what we need to fix. I have not re-indented most of the code sections that are now wrapped by PG_TRY(); that's for ease of review. pg_indent will fix it. This is a pre-existing bug in 8.3, but I don't dare back-patch this change until it's gotten a reasonable amount of field testing.
* Fix intratransaction memory leaks in xml_recv, xmlconcat, xmlroot, andTom Lane2009-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xml_parse, all arising from the same sloppy usage of parse_xml_decl. The original coding had that function returning its output string parameters in the libxml context, which is long-lived, and all but one of its callers neglected to free the strings afterwards. The easiest and most bulletproof fix is to return the strings in the local palloc context instead, since that's short-lived. This was only costing a dozen or two bytes per function call, but that adds up fast if the function is called repeatedly ... Noted while poking at the more general problem of what to do with our libxml memory allocation hooks. Back-patch to 8.3, which has the identical coding.
