Despite the argumentation I wrote in commit 7a2fe85b0, it's unsafe to do
this, because in corner cases it's possible for HeapTupleSatisfiesSelf
to try to set hint bits on the target tuple; and at least since 8.2 we
have required the buffer content lock to be held while setting hint bits.
The added regression test exercises one such corner case. Unpatched, it
causes an assertion failure in assert-enabled builds, or otherwise would
cause a hint bit change in a buffer we don't hold lock on, which given
the right race condition could result in checksum failures or other data
consistency problems. The odds of a problem in the field are probably
pretty small, but nonetheless back-patch to all supported branches.

IANA got rid of the really silly "abbreviation" and replaced it with one
that's only moderately silly. But it's still pointless, so keep on not
showing it.

CommandId is declared as uint32, and values up to 4G are indeed legal.
cidout() handles them properly by treating the value as unsigned int.
But cidin() was just using atoi(), which has platform-dependent behavior
for values outside the range of signed int, as reported by Bart Lengkeek
in bug #14379. Use strtoul() instead, as xidin() does.
In passing, make some purely cosmetic changes to make xidin/xidout
look more like cidin/cidout; the former didn't have a monopoly on
best practice IMO.
Neither xidin nor cidin make any attempt to throw error for invalid input.
I didn't change that here, and am not sure it's worth worrying about
since neither is really a user-facing type. The point is just to ensure
that indubitably-valid inputs work as expected.
It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

bitshiftright() and bitshiftleft() would recursively call each other
infinitely if the user passed INT_MIN for the shift amount, due to integer
overflow in negating the shift amount. To fix, clamp to -VARBITMAXLEN.
That doesn't change the results since any shift distance larger than the
input bit string's length produces an all-zeroes result.
Also fix some places that seemed inadequately paranoid about input typmods
exceeding VARBITMAXLEN. While a typmod accepted by anybit_typmodin() will
certainly be much less than that, at least some of these spots are
reachable with user-chosen integer values.

Previously, we threw an error if a dynamic timezone abbreviation did not
match any abbreviation recorded in the referenced IANA time zone entry.
That seemed like a good consistency check at the time, but it turns out
that a number of the abbreviations in the IANA database are things that
Olson and crew made up out of whole cloth. Their current policy is to
remove such names in favor of using simple numeric offsets. Perhaps
unsurprisingly, a lot of these made-up abbreviations have varied in meaning
over time, which meant that our commit b2cbced9e and later changes made
them into dynamic abbreviations. So with newer IANA database versions
that don't mention these abbreviations at all, we fail, as reported in bug
#14307 from Neil Anderson. It's worse than just a few unused-in-the-wild
abbreviations not working, because the pg_timezone_abbrevs view stops
working altogether (since its underlying function tries to compute the
whole view result in one call).
We considered deleting these abbreviations from our abbreviations list, but
the problem with that is that we can't stay ahead of possible future IANA
changes. Instead, let's leave the abbreviations list alone, and treat any
"orphaned" dynamic abbreviation as just meaning the referenced time zone.
It will behave a bit differently than it used to, in that you can't any
longer override the zone's standard vs. daylight rule by using the "wrong"
abbreviation of a pair, but that's better than failing entirely. (Also,
this solution can be interpreted as adding a small new feature, which is
that any abbreviation a user wants can be defined as referencing a time
zone name.)
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this problem affects all
of them when using tzdata 2016f or newer.

NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision
and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had
something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value,
but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed,
any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format;
which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000.
Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit
on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was
especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as
long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to
avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what
is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code.
Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the
number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore
hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format
limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want.
In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what
the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches.
Per gripe from Aravind Kumar. Back-patch to all supported branches,
since they all contain the documentation claim about allowed range of
NUMERIC (cf commit cabf5d84b).

Several places in NUM_numpart_from_char(), which is called from the SQL
function to_number(text, text), could accidentally read one byte past
the end of the input buffer (which comes from the input text datum and
is not null-terminated).
1. One leading space character would be skipped, but there was no check
that the input was at least one byte long. This does not happen in
practice, but for defensiveness, add a check anyway.
2. Commit 4a3a1e2cf apparently accidentally doubled that code that skips
one space character (so that two spaces might be skipped), but there
was no overflow check before skipping the second byte. Fix by
removing that duplicate code.
3. A logic error would allow a one-byte over-read when looking for a
trailing sign (S) placeholder.
In each case, the extra byte cannot be read out directly, but looking at
it might cause a crash.
The third item was discovered by Piotr Stefaniak, the first two were
found and analyzed by Tom Lane and Peter Eisentraut.

If ANALYZE found no repeated non-null entries in its sample, it set the
column's stadistinct value to -1.0, intending to indicate that the entries
are all distinct. But what this value actually means is that the number
of distinct values is 100% of the table's rowcount, and thus it was
overestimating the number of distinct values by however many nulls there
are. This could lead to very poor selectivity estimates, as for example
in a recent report from Andreas Joseph Krogh. We should discount the
stadistinct value by whatever we've estimated the nulls fraction to be.
(That is what will happen if we choose to use a negative stadistinct for
a column that does have repeated entries, so this code path was just
inconsistent.)
In addition to fixing the stadistinct entries stored by several different
ANALYZE code paths, adjust the logic where get_variable_numdistinct()
forces an "all distinct" estimate on the basis of finding a relevant unique
index. Unique indexes don't reject nulls, so there's no reason to assume
that the null fraction doesn't apply.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Back-patching is a bit of a judgment
call, but this problem seems to affect only a few users (else we'd have
identified it long ago), and it's bad enough when it does happen that
destabilizing plan choices in a worse direction seems unlikely.

Commits 4452000f3 et al established semantics for NullTest.argisrow that
are a bit different from its initial conception: rather than being merely
a cache of whether we've determined the input to have composite type,
the flag now has the further meaning that we should apply field-by-field
testing as per the standard's definition of IS [NOT] NULL. If argisrow
is false and yet the input has composite type, the construct instead has
the semantics of IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM NULL. Update the comments in
primnodes.h to clarify this, and fix ruleutils.c and deparse.c to print
such cases correctly. In the case of ruleutils.c, this merely results in
cosmetic changes in EXPLAIN output, since the case can't currently arise
in stored rules. However, it represents a live bug for deparse.c, which
would formerly have sent a remote query that had semantics different
from the local behavior. (From the user's standpoint, this means that
testing a remote nested-composite column for null-ness could have had
unexpected recursive behavior much like that fixed in 4452000f3.)
In a related but somewhat independent fix, make plancat.c set argisrow
to false in all NullTest expressions constructed to represent "attnotnull"
constructs. Since attnotnull is actually enforced as a simple null-value
check, this is a more accurate representation of the semantics; we were
previously overpromising what it meant for composite columns, which might
possibly lead to incorrect planner optimizations. (It seems that what the
SQL spec expects a NOT NULL constraint to mean is an IS NOT NULL test, so
arguably we are violating the spec and should fix attnotnull to do the
other thing. If we ever do, this part should get reverted.)
Back-patch, same as the previous commit.

The Assert() here seems unreasonably optimistic. Andreas Seltenreich
found that it could fail with NaNs in the input geometries, and it
seems likely to me that it might fail in corner cases due to roundoff
error, even for ordinary input values. As a band-aid, make the function
return SQL NULL instead of crashing.

The inet/cidr types sometimes failed to reject IPv6 inputs with too many
colon-separated fields, instead translating them to '::/0'. This is the
result of a thinko in the original ISC code that seems to be as yet
unreported elsewhere. Per bug #14198 from Stefan Kaltenbrunner.

to_timestamp() handles the TH/th format codes by advancing over two input
characters, whatever those are. It failed to notice whether there were
two characters available to be skipped, making it possible to advance
the pointer past the end of the input string and keep on parsing.
A similar risk existed in the handling of "Y,YYY" format: it would advance
over three characters after the "," whether or not three characters were
available.
In principle this might be exploitable to disclose contents of server
memory. But the security team concluded that it would be very hard to use
that way, because the parsing loop would stop upon hitting any zero byte,
and TH/th format codes can't be consecutive --- they have to follow some
other format code, which would have to match whatever data is there.
So it seems impractical to examine memory very much beyond the end of the
input string via this bug; and the input string will always be in local
memory not in disk buffers, making it unlikely that anything very
interesting is close to it in a predictable way. So this doesn't quite
rise to the level of needing a CVE.
Thanks to Wolf Roediger for reporting this bug.

NetBSD has seen fit to invent a libc function named strtoi(), which
conflicts with the long-established static functions of the same name in
datetime.c and ecpg's interval.c. While muttering darkly about intrusions
on application namespace, we'll rename our functions to avoid the conflict.
Back-patch to all supported branches, since this would affect attempts
to build any of them on recent NetBSD.

When we shoehorned "x op ANY (array)" into the SQL syntax, we created a
fundamental ambiguity as to the proper treatment of a sub-SELECT on the
righthand side: perhaps what's meant is to compare x against each row of
the sub-SELECT's result, or perhaps the sub-SELECT is meant as a scalar
sub-SELECT that delivers a single array value whose members should be
compared against x. The grammar resolves it as the former case whenever
the RHS is a select_with_parens, making the latter case hard to reach ---
but you can get at it, with tricks such as attaching a no-op cast to the
sub-SELECT. Parse analysis would throw away the no-op cast, leaving a
parsetree with an EXPR_SUBLINK SubLink directly under a ScalarArrayOpExpr.
ruleutils.c was not clued in on this fine point, and would naively emit
"x op ANY ((SELECT ...))", which would be parsed as the first alternative,
typically leading to errors like "operator does not exist: text = text[]"
during dump/reload of a view or rule containing such a construct. To fix,
emit a no-op cast when dumping such a parsetree. This might well be
exactly what the user wrote to get the construct accepted in the first
place; and even if she got there with some other dodge, it is a valid
representation of the parsetree.
Per report from Karl Czajkowski. He mentioned only a case involving
RLS policies, but actually the problem is very old, so back-patch to
all supported branches.

A failure partway through PGLC_localeconv() led to a situation where
the next call would call free_struct_lconv() a second time, leading
to free() on already-freed strings, typically leading to a core dump.
Add a flag to remember whether we need to do that.

as far back as 9.4, but nonetheless this code is obviously broken, so

flatten_reloptions() supposed that it didn't really need to do anything
beyond inserting commas between reloption array elements. However, in
principle the value of a reloption could be nearly anything, since the
grammar allows a quoted string there. Any restrictions on it would come
from validity checking appropriate to the particular option, if any.
A reloption value that isn't a simple identifier or number could thus lead
to dump/reload failures due to syntax errors in CREATE statements issued
by pg_dump. We've gotten away with not worrying about this so far with
the core-supported reloptions, but extensions might allow reloption values
that cause trouble, as in bug #13840 from Kouhei Sutou.
To fix, split the reloption array elements explicitly, and then convert
any value that doesn't look like a safe identifier to a string literal.
(The details of the quoting rule could be debated, but this way is safe
and requires little code.) While we're at it, also quote reloption names
if they're not safe identifiers; that may not be a likely problem in the
field, but we might as well try to be bulletproof here.
It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

A report from Andy Colson showed that gincostestimate() was not being
nearly paranoid enough about whether to believe the statistics it finds in
the index metapage. The problem is that the metapage stats (other than the
pending-pages count) are only updated by VACUUM, and in the worst case
could still reflect the index's original empty state even when it has grown
to many entries. We attempted to deal with that by scaling up the stats to
match the current index size, but if nEntries is zero then scaling it up
still gives zero. Moreover, the proportion of pages that are entry pages
vs. data pages vs. pending pages is unlikely to be estimated very well by
scaling if the index is now orders of magnitude larger than before.
We can improve matters by expanding the use of the rule-of-thumb estimates
I introduced in commit 7fb008c5ee59b040: if the index has grown by more
than a cutoff amount (here set at 4X growth) since VACUUM, then use the
rule-of-thumb numbers instead of scaling. This might not be exactly right
but it seems much less likely to produce insane estimates.
I also improved both the scaling estimate and the rule-of-thumb estimate
to account for numPendingPages, since it's reasonable to expect that that
is accurate in any case, and certainly pages that are in the pending list
are not either entry or data pages.
As a somewhat separate issue, adjust the estimation equations that are
concerned with extra fetches for partial-match searches. These equations
suppose that a fraction partialEntries / numEntries of the entry and data
pages will be visited as a consequence of a partial-match search. Now,
it's physically impossible for that fraction to exceed one, but our
estimate of partialEntries is mostly bunk, and our estimate of numEntries
isn't exactly gospel either, so we could arrive at a silly value. In the
example presented by Andy we were coming out with a value of 100, leading
to insane cost estimates. Clamp the fraction to one to avoid that.
Like the previous patch, back-patch to all supported branches; this
problem can be demonstrated in one form or another in all of them.

We tried to fetch statistics data from the index metapage, which does not
work if the index isn't actually present. If the index is hypothetical,
instead extrapolate some plausible internal statistics based on the index
page count provided by the index-advisor plugin.
There was already some code in gincostestimate() to invent internal stats
in this way, but since it was only meant as a stopgap for pre-9.1 GIN
indexes that hadn't been vacuumed since upgrading, it was pretty crude.
If we want it to support index advisors, we should try a little harder.
A small amount of testing says that it's better to estimate the entry pages
as 90% of the index, not 100%. Also, estimating the number of entries
(keys) as equal to the heap tuple count could be wildly wrong in either
direction. Instead, let's estimate 100 entries per entry page.
Perhaps someday somebody will want the index advisor to be able to provide
these numbers more directly, but for the moment this should serve.
Problem report and initial patch by Julien Rouhaud; modified by me to
invent less-bogus internal statistics. Back-patch to all supported
branches, since we've supported index advisors since 9.0.

The previous way of reconstructing check constraints was to do a separate
"ALTER TABLE ONLY tab ADD CONSTRAINT" for each table in an inheritance
hierarchy. However, that way has no hope of reconstructing the check
constraints' own inheritance properties correctly, as pointed out in
bug #13779 from Jan Dirk Zijlstra. What we should do instead is to do
a regular "ALTER TABLE", allowing recursion, at the topmost table that
has a particular constraint, and then suppress the work queue entries
for inherited instances of the constraint.
Annoyingly, we'd tried to fix this behavior before, in commit 5ed6546cf,
but we failed to notice that it wasn't reconstructing the pg_constraint
field values correctly.
As long as I'm touching pg_get_constraintdef_worker anyway, tweak it to
always schema-qualify the target table name; this seems like useful backup
to the protections installed by commit 5f173040.
In HEAD/9.5, get rid of get_constraint_relation_oids, which is now unused.
(I could alternatively have modified it to also return conislocal, but that
seemed like a pretty single-purpose API, so let's not pretend it has some
other use.) It's unused in the back branches as well, but I left it in
place just in case some third-party code has decided to use it.
In HEAD/9.5, also rename pg_get_constraintdef_string to
pg_get_constraintdef_command, as the previous name did nothing to explain
what that entry point did differently from others (and its comment was
equally useless). Again, that change doesn't seem like material for
back-patching.
I did a bit of re-pgindenting in tablecmds.c in HEAD/9.5, as well.
Otherwise, back-patch to all supported branches.

div_var_fast() postpones propagating carries in the same way as mul_var(),
so it has the same corner-case overflow risk we fixed in 246693e5ae8a36f0,
namely that the size of the carries has to be accounted for when setting
the threshold for executing a carry propagation step. We've not devised
a test case illustrating the brokenness, but the required fix seems clear
enough. Like the previous fix, back-patch to all active branches.

Normally ruleutils prints a whole-row Var as "foo.*". We already knew that
that doesn't work at top level of a SELECT list, because the parser would
treat the "*" as a directive to expand the reference into separate columns,
not a whole-row Var. However, Joshua Yanovski points out in bug #13776
that the same thing happens at top level of a ROW() construct; and some
nosing around in the parser shows that the same is true in VALUES().
Hence, apply the same workaround already devised for the SELECT-list case,
namely to add a forced cast to the appropriate rowtype in these cases.
(The alternative of just printing "foo" was rejected because it is
difficult to avoid ambiguity against plain columns named "foo".)

A range type can name another range type as its subtype, and a record
type can bear a column of another record type. Consequently, functions
like range_cmp() and record_recv() are recursive. Functions at risk
include operator family members and referents of pg_type regproc
columns. Treat as recursive any such function that looks up and calls
the same-purpose function for a record column type or the range subtype.
Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
An array type's element type is never itself an array type, so array
functions are unaffected. Recursion depth proportional to array
dimensionality, found in array_dim_to_jsonb(), is fine thanks to MAXDIM.

mul_var() postpones propagating carries until it risks overflow in its
internal digit array. However, the logic failed to account for the
possibility of overflow in the carry propagation step, allowing wrong
results to be generated in corner cases. We must slightly reduce the
when-to-propagate-carries threshold to avoid that.
Discovered and fixed by Dean Rasheed, with small adjustments by me.
This has been wrong since commit d72f6c75038d8d37e64a29a04b911f728044d83b,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

If we have the typmod that identifies a registered record type, there's no

Now, in direct SQL usage, record_in() will always be passed typmod = -1
with type OID RECORDOID, because no typmodin exists for type RECORD, so the
case can't arise. However, some InputFunctionCall users such as PLs may be
able to supply the right typmod, so we should allow this to support them.
Note: the previous coding and comment here predate commit 59c016aa9f490b53.
There has been no case since 8.1 in which the passed type OID wouldn't be
valid; and if it weren't, this error message wouldn't be apropos anyway.
Better to let lookup_rowtype_tupdesc complain about it.
Back-patch to 9.1, as this is necessary for my upcoming plpython fix.
I'm committing it separately just to make it a bit more visible in the
commit history.

Although I think on all modern machines floating division by zero
results in Infinity not SIGFPE, we still don't want infinities
running around in the planner's costing estimates; too much risk
of that leading to insane behavior.
grouping_planner() failed to consider the possibility that final_rel
might be known dummy and hence have zero rowcount. (I wonder if it
would be better to set a rows estimate of 1 for dummy relations?
But at least in the back branches, changing this convention seems
like a bad idea, so I'll leave that for another day.)
Make certain that get_variable_numdistinct() produces a nonzero result.
The case that can be shown to be broken is with stadistinct < 0.0 and
small ntuples; we did not prevent the result from rounding to zero.
For good luck I applied clamp_row_est() to all the nonconstant return
values.
In ExecChooseHashTableSize(), Assert that we compute positive nbuckets
and nbatch. I know of no reason to think this isn't the case, but it
seems like a good safety check.
Per reports from Piotr Stefaniak. Back-patch to all active branches.

PostgreSQL already checked the vast majority of these, missing this
handful that nearly cannot fail. If putenv() failed with ENOMEM in
pg_GSS_recvauth(), authentication would proceed with the wrong keytab
file. If strftime() returned zero in cache_locale_time(), using the
unspecified buffer contents could lead to information exposure or a
crash. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
Other unchecked calls to these functions, especially those in frontend
code, pose negligible security concern. This patch does not address
them. Nonetheless, it is always better to check return values whose
specification provides for indicating an error.
In passing, fix an off-by-one error in strftime_win32()'s invocation of
WideCharToMultiByte(). Upon retrieving a value of exactly MAX_L10N_DATA
bytes, strftime_win32() would overrun the caller's buffer by one byte.
MAX_L10N_DATA is chosen to exceed the length of every possible value, so
the vulnerable scenario probably does not arise.

The "simple" path for printing VALUES clauses doesn't work if we need
to attach nondefault column aliases, because there's noplace to do that
in the minimal VALUES() syntax. So modify get_simple_values_rte() to
detect nondefault aliases and treat that as a non-simple case. This
further exposes that the "non-simple" path never actually worked;
it didn't produce valid syntax. Fix that too. Per bug #12789 from
Curtis McEnroe, and analysis by Andrew Gierth.
Back-patch to all supported branches. Before 9.3, this also requires
back-patching the part of commit 092d7ded29f36b0539046b23b81b9f0bf2d637f1
that created get_simple_values_rte() to begin with; inserting the extra
test into the old factorization of that logic would've been too messy.

While building error messages to return to the user,
BuildIndexValueDescription and ri_ReportViolation would happily include
the entire key or entire row in the result returned to the user, even if
the user didn't have access to view all of the columns being included.
Instead, include only those columns which the user is providing or which
the user has select rights on. If the user does not have any rights
to view the table or any of the columns involved then no detail is
provided and a NULL value is returned from BuildIndexValueDescription.
Note that, for key cases, the user must have access to all of the
columns for the key to be shown; a partial key will not be returned.
Back-patch all the way, as column-level privileges are now in all
supported versions.
This has been assigned CVE-2014-8161, but since the issue and the patch
have already been publicized on pgsql-hackers, there's no point in trying
to hide this commit.

Commit 145343534c153d1e6c3cff1fa1855787684d9a38 arranged to store numeric
NaN values as short-header numerics, but the field access macros did not
get the memo: they thought only "SHORT" numerics have short headers.
Most of the time this makes no difference because we don't access the
weight or dscale of a NaN; but numeric_send does that. As pointed out
by Andrew Gierth, this led to fetching uninitialized bytes.
AFAICS this could not have any worse consequences than that; in particular,
an unaligned stored numeric would have been detoasted by PG_GETARG_NUMERIC,
so that there's no risk of a fetch off the end of memory. Still, the code
is wrong on its own terms, and it's not hard to foresee future changes that
might expose us to real risks. So back-patch to all affected branches.

Previously, the xml value resulting from an xpath query would not have
namespace declarations if the namespace declarations were attached to
an ancestor element in the input xml value. That means the output value
was not correct XML. Fix that by running the result value through
xmlCopyNode(), which produces the correct namespace declarations.

We were not checking to see if the supplied dscale was valid for the given
digit array when receiving binary-format numeric values. While dscale can
validly be more than the number of nonzero fractional digits, it shouldn't
be less; that case causes fractional digits to be hidden on display even
though they're there and participate in arithmetic.
Bug #12053 from Tommaso Sala indicates that there's at least one broken
client library out there that sometimes supplies an incorrect dscale value,
leading to strange behavior. This suggests that simply throwing an error
might not be the best response; it would lead to failures in applications
that might seem to be working fine today. What seems the least risky fix
is to truncate away any digits that would be hidden by dscale. This
preserves the existing behavior in terms of what will be printed for the
transmitted value, while preventing subsequent arithmetic from producing
results inconsistent with that.
In passing, throw a specific error for the case of dscale being outside
the range that will fit into a numeric's header. Before you got "value
overflows numeric format", which is a bit misleading.

1. The comparison for matching terms used only the CRC to decide if there's
a match. Two different terms with the same CRC gave a match.
2. It assumed that if the second operand has more terms than the first, it's
never a match. That assumption is bogus, because there can be duplicate
terms in either operand.
Rewrite the implementation in a way that doesn't have those bugs.
Backpatch to all supported versions.

Up to now, PG has assumed that any given timezone abbreviation (such as
"EDT") represents a constant GMT offset in the usage of any particular
region; we had a way to configure what that offset was, but not for it
to be changeable over time. But, as with most things horological, this
view of the world is too simplistic: there are numerous regions that have
at one time or another switched to a different GMT offset but kept using
the same timezone abbreviation. Almost the entire Russian Federation did
that a few years ago, and later this month they're going to do it again.
And there are similar examples all over the world.
To cope with this, invent the notion of a "dynamic timezone abbreviation",
which is one that is referenced to a particular underlying timezone
(as defined in the IANA timezone database) and means whatever it currently
means in that zone. For zones that use or have used daylight-savings time,
the standard and DST abbreviations continue to have the property that you
can specify standard or DST time and get that time offset whether or not
DST was theoretically in effect at the time. However, the abbreviations
mean what they meant at the time in question (or most recently before that
time) rather than being absolutely fixed.
The standard abbreviation-list files have been changed to use this behavior
for abbreviations that have actually varied in meaning since 1970. The
old simple-numeric definitions are kept for abbreviations that have not
changed, since they are a bit faster to resolve.
While this is clearly a new feature, it seems necessary to back-patch it
into all active branches, because otherwise use of Russian zone
abbreviations is going to become even more problematic than it already was.
This change supersedes the changes in commit 513d06ded et al to modify the
fixed meanings of the Russian abbreviations; since we've not shipped that
yet, this will avoid an undesirably incompatible (not to mention incorrect)
change in behavior for timestamps between 2011 and 2014.
This patch makes some cosmetic changes in ecpglib to keep its usage of
datetime lookup tables as similar as possible to the backend code, but
doesn't do anything about the increasingly obsolete set of timezone
abbreviation definitions that are hard-wired into ecpglib. Whatever we
do about that will likely not be appropriate material for back-patching.
Also, a potential free() of a garbage pointer after an out-of-memory
failure in ecpglib has been fixed.
This patch also fixes pre-existing bugs in DetermineTimeZoneOffset() that
caused it to produce unexpected results near a timezone transition, if
both the "before" and "after" states are marked as standard time. We'd
only ever thought about or tested transitions between standard and DST
time, but that's not what's happening when a zone simply redefines their
base GMT offset.
In passing, update the SGML documentation to refer to the Olson/zoneinfo/
zic timezone database as the "IANA" database, since it's now being
maintained under the auspices of IANA.

The code for raising a NUMERIC value to an integer power wasn't very
careful about large powers. It got an outright wrong answer for an
exponent of INT_MIN, due to failure to consider overflow of the Abs(exp)
operation; which is fixable by using an unsigned rather than signed
exponent value after that point. Also, even though the number of
iterations of the power-computation loop is pretty limited, it's easy for
the repeated squarings to result in ridiculously enormous intermediate
values, which can take unreasonable amounts of time/memory to process,
or even overflow the internal "weight" field and so produce a wrong answer.
We can forestall misbehaviors of that sort by bailing out as soon as the
weight value exceeds what will fit in int16, since then the final answer
must overflow (if exp > 0) or underflow (if exp < 0) the packed numeric
format.

The proc array can contain duplicate XIDs, when a transaction is just being

If we have an array of records stored on disk, the individual record fields
cannot contain out-of-line TOAST pointers: the tuptoaster.c mechanisms are
only prepared to deal with TOAST pointers appearing in top-level fields of
a stored row. The same applies for ranges over composite types, nested
composites, etc. However, the existing code only took care of expanding
sub-field TOAST pointers for the case of nested composites, not for other
structured types containing composites. For example, given a command such
as
UPDATE tab SET arraycol = ARRAY[(ROW(x,42)::mycompositetype] ...
where x is a direct reference to a field of an on-disk tuple, if that field
is long enough to be toasted out-of-line then the TOAST pointer would be
inserted as-is into the array column. If the source record for x is later
deleted, the array field value would become a dangling pointer, leading
to errors along the line of "missing chunk number 0 for toast value ..."
when the value is referenced. A reproducible test case for this was
provided by Jan Pecek, but it seems likely that some of the "missing chunk
number" reports we've heard in the past were caused by similar issues.
Code-wise, the problem is that PG_DETOAST_DATUM() is not adequate to
produce a self-contained Datum value if the Datum is of composite type.
Seen in this light, the problem is not just confined to arrays and ranges,
but could also affect some other places where detoasting is done in that
way, for example form_index_tuple().
I tried teaching the array code to apply toast_flatten_tuple_attribute()
along with PG_DETOAST_DATUM() when the array element type is composite,
but this was messy and imposed extra cache lookup costs whether or not any
TOAST pointers were present, indeed sometimes when the array element type
isn't even composite (since sometimes it takes a typcache lookup to find
that out). The idea of extending that approach to all the places that
currently use PG_DETOAST_DATUM() wasn't attractive at all.
This patch instead solves the problem by decreeing that composite Datum
values must not contain any out-of-line TOAST pointers in the first place;
that is, we expand out-of-line fields at the point of constructing a
composite Datum, not at the point where we're about to insert it into a
larger tuple. This rule is applied only to true composite Datums, not
to tuples that are being passed around the system as tuples, so it's not
as invasive as it might sound at first. With this approach, the amount
of code that has to be touched for a full solution is greatly reduced,
and added cache lookup costs are avoided except when there actually is
a TOAST pointer that needs to be inlined.
The main drawback of this approach is that we might sometimes dereference
a TOAST pointer that will never actually be used by the query, imposing a
rather large cost that wasn't there before. On the other side of the coin,
if the field value is used multiple times then we'll come out ahead by
avoiding repeat detoastings. Experimentation suggests that common SQL
coding patterns are unaffected either way, though. Applications that are
very negatively affected could be advised to modify their code to not fetch
columns they won't be using.
In future, we might consider reverting this solution in favor of detoasting
only at the point where data is about to be stored to disk, using some
method that can drill down into multiple levels of nested structured types.
That will require defining new APIs for structured types, though, so it
doesn't seem feasible as a back-patchable fix.
Note that this patch changes HeapTupleGetDatum() from a macro to a function
call; this means that any third-party code using that macro will not get
protection against creating TOAST-pointer-containing Datums until it's
recompiled. The same applies to any uses of PG_RETURN_HEAPTUPLEHEADER().
It seems likely that this is not a big problem in practice: most of the
tuple-returning functions in core and contrib produce outputs that could
not possibly be toasted anyway, and the same probably holds for third-party
extensions.
This bug has existed since TOAST was invented, so back-patch to all
supported branches.

Initialization of this field was not being done according to the
st_changecount protocol (it has to be done within the changecount increment
range, not outside). And the test to see if the value should be reported

In make_ruledef and get_query_def, we have long used AcquireRewriteLocks
to ensure that the querytree we are about to deparse is up-to-date and
the schemas of the underlying relations aren't changing. Howwever, that
function thinks the query is about to be executed, so it acquires locks
that are stronger than necessary for the purpose of deparsing. Thus for
example, if pg_dump asks to deparse a rule that includes "INSERT INTO t",
we'd acquire RowExclusiveLock on t. That results in interference with
concurrent transactions that might for example ask for ShareLock on t.
Since pg_dump is documented as being purely read-only, this is unexpected.
(Worse, it used to actually be read-only; this behavior dates back only
to 8.1, cf commit ba4200246.)
Fix this by adding a parameter to AcquireRewriteLocks to tell it whether
we want the "real" execution locks or only AccessShareLock.

The regex code didn't have any provision for query cancel; which is
unsurprising given its non-Postgres origin, but still problematic since
some operations can take a long time. Introduce a callback function to
check for a pending query cancel or session termination request, and
call it in a couple of strategic spots where we can make the regex code
exit with an error indicator.
If we ever actually split out the regex code as a standalone library,
some additional work will be needed to let the cancel callback function
be specified externally to the library. But that's straightforward
(certainly so by comparison to putting the locale-dependent character
classification logic on a similar arms-length basis), and there seems
no need to do it right now.
A bigger issue is that there may be more places than these two where
we need to check for cancels. We can always add more checks later,
now that the infrastructure is in place.
Since there are known examples of not-terribly-long regexes that can
lock up a backend for a long time, back-patch to all supported branches.
I have hopes of fixing the known performance problems later, but adding
query cancel ability seems like a good idea even if they were all fixed.
