* Fix another bit of unlogged-table-induced breakage.Robert Haas2011-09-21
| | | | | | | | Per bug #6205, reported by Abel Abraham Camarillo Ojeda. This isn't a particularly elegant fix, but I'm trying to minimize the chances of causing yet another round of breakage. Adjust regression tests to exercise this case.
* Suppress "unused function" warning when not HAVE_LOCALE_T.Tom Lane2011-09-20
| | | | Forgot to consider this case ...
* Improve reporting of newlocale() failures in CREATE COLLATION.Tom Lane2011-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | The standardized errno code for "no such locale" failures is ENOENT, which we were just reporting at face value, viz "No such file or directory". Per gripe from Thom Brown, this might confuse users, so add an errdetail message to clarify what it means. Also, report newlocale() failures as ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE rather than using errcode_for_file_access(), since newlocale()'s errno values aren't necessarily tied directly to file access failures.
* Avoid unnecessary page-level SSI lock check in heap_insert().Tom Lane2011-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | As observed by Heikki, we need not conflict on heap page locks during an insert; heap page locks are only aggregated tuple locks, they don't imply locking "gaps" as index page locks do. So we can avoid some unnecessary conflicts, and also do the SSI check while not holding exclusive lock on the target buffer. Kevin Grittner, reviewed by Jeff Davis. Back-patch to 9.1.
* gistendscan() forgot to free so->giststate.Tom Lane2011-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | This oversight led to a massive memory leak --- upwards of 10KB per tuple --- during creation-time verification of an exclusion constraint based on a GIST index. In most other scenarios it'd just be a leak of 10KB that would be recovered at end of query, so not too significant; though perhaps the leak would be noticeable in a situation where a GIST index was being used in a nestloop inner indexscan. In any case, it's a real leak of long standing, so patch all supported branches. Per report from Harald Fuchs.
* deflist_to_tuplestore dumped core on an option with no value.Tom Lane2011-09-13
| | | | | | | Make it return NULL for the option_value, instead. Per report from Frank van Vugt. Back-patch to 8.4 where this code was added.

* Fix corner case bug in numeric to_char().Tom Lane2011-09-07
| | | | | | | | Trailing-zero stripping applied by the FM specifier could strip zeroes to the left of the decimal point, for a format with no digit positions after the decimal point (such as "FM999."). Reported and diagnosed by Marti Raudsepp, though I didn't use his patch.
* Fix typo in error message.Tom Lane2011-09-07
| | | | Per Euler Taveira de Oliveira.
* Fix get_name_for_var_field() to deal with RECORD Params.Tom Lane2011-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With 9.1's use of Params to pass down values from NestLoop join nodes to their inner plans, it is possible for a Param to have type RECORD, in which case the set of fields comprising the value isn't determinable by inspection of the Param alone. However, just as with a Var of type RECORD, we can find out what we need to know if we can locate the expression that the Param represents. We already knew how to do this in get_parameter(), but I'd overlooked the need to be able to cope in get_name_for_var_field(), which led to EXPLAIN failing with "record type has not been registered". To fix, refactor the search code in get_parameter() so it can be used by both functions. Per report from Marti Raudsepp.
* Avoid possibly accessing off the end of memory in SJIS2004 conversion.Tom Lane2011-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | The code in shift_jis_20042euc_jis_2004() would fetch two bytes even when only one remained in the string. Since conversion functions aren't supposed to assume null-terminated input, this poses a small risk of fetching past the end of memory and incurring SIGSEGV. No such crash has been identified in the field, but we've certainly seen the equivalent happen in other code paths, so patch this one all the way back. Report and patch by Noah Misch.
* Avoid possibly accessing off the end of memory in examine_attribute().Tom Lane2011-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the last couple of columns of pg_type are often NULL, sizeof(FormData_pg_type) can be an overestimate of the actual size of the tuple data part. Therefore memcpy'ing that much out of the catalog cache, as analyze.c was doing, poses a small risk of copying past the end of memory and incurring SIGSEGV. No such crash has been identified in the field, but we've certainly seen the equivalent happen in other code paths, so patch this one all the way back. Per valgrind testing by Noah Misch, though this is not his proposed patch. I chose to use SearchSysCacheCopy1 rather than inventing special-purpose infrastructure for copying only the minimal part of a pg_type tuple.

* setlocale() on Windows doesn't work correctly if the locale name containsHeikki Linnakangas2011-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dots. I previously worked around this in initdb, mapping the known problematic locale names to aliases that work, but Hiroshi Inoue pointed out that that's not enough because even if you use one of the aliases, like "Chinese_HKG", setlocale(LC_CTYPE, NULL) returns back the long form, ie. "Chinese_Hong Kong S.A.R.". When we try to restore an old locale value by passing that value back to setlocale(), it fails. Note that you are affected by this bug also if you use one of those short-form names manually, so just reverting the hack in initdb won't fix it. To work around that, move the locale name mapping from initdb to a wrapper around setlocale(), so that the mapping is invoked on every setlocale() call. Also, add a few checks for failed setlocale() calls in the backend. These calls shouldn't fail, and if they do there isn't much we can do about it, but at least you'll get a warning. Backpatch to 9.1, where the initdb hack was introduced. The Windows bug affects older versions too if you set locale manually to one of the aliases, but given the lack of complaints from the field, I'm hesitent to backpatch.
* Further repair of eqjoinsel ndistinct-clamping logic.Tom Lane2011-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Examination of examples provided by Mark Kirkwood and others has convinced me that actually commit 7f3eba30c9d622d1981b1368f2d79ba0999cdff2 was quite a few bricks shy of a load. The useful part of that patch was clamping ndistinct for the inner side of a semi or anti join, and the reason why that's needed is that it's the only way that restriction clauses eliminating rows from the inner relation can affect the estimated size of the join result. I had not clearly understood why the clamping was appropriate, and so mis-extrapolated to conclude that we should clamp ndistinct for the outer side too, as well as for both sides of regular joins. These latter actions were all wrong, and are reverted with this patch. In addition, the clamping logic is now made to affect the behavior of both paths in eqjoinsel_semi, with or without MCV lists to compare. When we have MCVs, we suppose that the most common values are the ones that are most likely to survive the decimation resulting from a lower restriction clause, so we think of the clamping as eliminating non-MCV values, or potentially even the least-common MCVs for the inner relation. Back-patch to 8.4, same as previous fixes in this area.
* Improve eqjoinsel's ndistinct clamping to work for multiple levels of join.Tom Lane2011-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes an oversight in my commit 7f3eba30c9d622d1981b1368f2d79ba0999cdff2 of 2008-10-23. That patch accounted for baserel restriction clauses that reduced the number of rows coming out of a table (and hence the number of possibly-distinct values of a join variable), but not for join restriction clauses that might have been applied at a lower level of join. To account for the latter, look up the sizes of the min_lefthand and min_righthand inputs of the current join, and clamp with those in the same way as for the base relations. Noted while investigating a complaint from Ben Chobot, although this in itself doesn't seem to explain his report. Back-patch to 8.4; previous versions used different estimation methods for which this heuristic isn't relevant.
* Fix a missed case in code for "moving average" estimate of reltuples.Tom Lane2011-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible for VACUUM to scan no pages at all, if the visibility map shows that all pages are all-visible. In this situation VACUUM has no new information to report about the relation's tuple density, so it wasn't changing pg_class.reltuples ... but it updated pg_class.relpages anyway. That's wrong in general, since there is no evidence to justify changing the density ratio reltuples/relpages, but it's particularly bad if the previous state was relpages=reltuples=0, which means "unknown tuple density". We just replaced "unknown" with "zero". ANALYZE would eventually recover from this, but it could take a lot of repetitions of ANALYZE to do so if the relation size is much larger than the maximum number of pages ANALYZE will scan, because of the moving-average behavior introduced by commit b4b6923e03f4d29636a94f6f4cc2f5cf6298b8c8. The only known situation where we could have relpages=reltuples=0 and yet the visibility map asserts everything's visible is immediately following a pg_upgrade. It might be advisable for pg_upgrade to try to preserve the relpages/reltuples statistics; but in any case this code is wrong on its own terms, so fix it. Per report from Sergey Koposov. Back-patch to 8.4, where the visibility map was introduced, same as the previous change.
* Fix concat_ws() to not insert a separator after leading NULL argument(s).Tom Lane2011-08-29
| | | | | Per bug #6181 from Itagaki Takahiro. Also do some marginal code cleanup and improve error handling.
* Fix potential memory clobber in tsvector_concat().Tom Lane2011-08-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tsvector_concat() allocated its result workspace using the "conservative" estimate of the sum of the two input tsvectors' sizes. Unfortunately that wasn't so conservative as all that, because it supposed that the number of pad bytes required could not grow. Which it can, as per test case from Jesper Krogh, if there's a mix of lexemes with positions and lexemes without them in the input data. The fix is to assume that we might add a not-previously-present pad byte for each and every lexeme in the two inputs; which really is conservative, but it doesn't seem worthwhile to try to be more precise. This is an aboriginal bug in tsvector_concat, so back-patch to all versions containing it.
* Revert "Tweak postgresql.conf.sample's comments on listen_addresess."Robert Haas2011-08-25
| | | | | This reverts commit 1bde67c0b9adce8b7ed2a2d1fcb2788cf96cea64, which should have been done only on the master branch.
* Tweak postgresql.conf.sample's comments on listen_addresess.Robert Haas2011-08-25
| | | | | | | This makes it slightly more clear that '*' is not part of the default value, in case that wasn't obvious. As requested by Dougal Sutherland.
* Fix multiple bugs in extension dropping.Tom Lane2011-08-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we implemented extensions, we made findDependentObjects() treat EXTENSION dependency links similarly to INTERNAL links. However, that logic contained an implicit assumption that an object could have at most one INTERNAL dependency, so it did not work correctly for objects having both INTERNAL and DEPENDENCY links. This led to failure to drop some extension member objects when dropping the extension. Furthermore, we'd never actually exercised the case of recursing to an internally-referenced (owning) object from anything other than a NORMAL dependency, and it turns out that passing the incoming dependency's flags to the owning object is the Wrong Thing. This led to sometimes dropping a whole extension silently when we should have rejected the drop command for lack of CASCADE. Since we obviously were under-testing extension drop scenarios, add some regression test cases. Unfortunately, such test cases require some extensions (duh), so we can't test for problems in the core regression tests. I chose to add them to the earthdistance contrib module, which is a good test case because it has a dependency on the cube contrib module. Back-patch to 9.1. Arguably these are pre-existing bugs in INTERNAL dependency handling, but since it appears that the cases can never arise pre-9.1, I'll refrain from back-patching the logic changes further than that.
* Make CREATE EXTENSION check schema creation permissions.Tom Lane2011-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a new schema for a non-relocatable extension, we neglected to check whether the calling user has permission to create schemas. That didn't matter in the original coding, since we had already checked superuserness, but in the new dispensation where users need not be superusers, we should check it. Use CreateSchemaCommand() rather than calling NamespaceCreate() directly, so that we also enforce the rules about reserved schema names. Per complaint from KaiGai Kohei, though this isn't the same as his patch.
* Fix overoptimistic assumptions in column width estimation for subqueries.Tom Lane2011-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | set_append_rel_pathlist supposed that, while computing per-column width estimates for the appendrel, it could ignore child rels for which the translated reltargetlist entry wasn't a Var. This gave rise to completely silly estimates in some common cases, such as constant outputs from some or all of the arms of a UNION ALL. Instead, fall back on get_typavgwidth to estimate from the value's datatype; which might be a poor estimate but at least it's not completely wacko. That problem was exposed by an Assert in set_subquery_size_estimates, which unfortunately was still overoptimistic even with that fix, since we don't compute attr_widths estimates for appendrels that are entirely excluded by constraints. So remove the Assert; we'll just fall back on get_typavgwidth in such cases. Also, since set_subquery_size_estimates calls set_baserel_size_estimates which calls set_rel_width, there's no need for set_subquery_size_estimates to call get_typavgwidth; set_rel_width will handle it for us if we just leave the estimate set to zero. Remove the unnecessary code. Per report from Erik Rijkers and subsequent investigation.
* Fix handling of extension membership when filling in a shell operator.Tom Lane2011-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding would result in deleting and not re-creating the extension membership pg_depend rows, since there was no CommandCounterIncrement that would allow recordDependencyOnCurrentExtension to see that the deletion had happened. Make it work like the shell type case, ie, keep the existing entries (and then throw an error if they're for the wrong extension). Per bug #6172 from Hitoshi Harada. Investigation and fix by Dimitri Fontaine.
* Fix trigger WHEN conditions when both BEFORE and AFTER triggers exist.Tom Lane2011-08-21
| | | | | | | | | Due to tuple-slot mismanagement, evaluation of WHEN conditions for AFTER ROW UPDATE triggers could crash if there had been a BEFORE ROW trigger fired for the same update. Fix by not trying to overload the use of estate->es_trig_tuple_slot. Per report from Yoran Heling. Back-patch to 9.0, when trigger WHEN conditions were introduced.
* Fix performance problem when building a lossy tidbitmap.Tom Lane2011-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by Sergey Koposov, repeated invocations of tbm_lossify can make building a large tidbitmap into an O(N^2) operation. To fix, make sure we remove more than the minimum amount of information per call, and add a fallback path to behave sanely if we're unable to fit the bitmap within the requested amount of memory. This has been wrong since the tidbitmap code was written, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* If backup-end record is not seen, and we reach end of recovery from aHeikki Linnakangas2011-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | streamed backup, throw an error and refuse to start up. The restore has not finished correctly in that case and the data directory is possibly corrupt. We already errored out in case of archive recovery, but could not during crash recovery because we couldn't distinguish between the case that pg_start_backup() was called and the database then crashed (must not error, data is OK), and the case that we're restoring from a backup and not all the needed WAL was replayed (data can be corrupt). To distinguish those cases, add a line to backup_label to indicate whether the backup was taken with pg_start/stop_backup(), or by streaming (ie. pg_basebackup). This is a different implementation than what I committed to 9.2 a week ago. That implementation was not back-patchable because it required re-initdb. Fujii Masao
* Forget about targeting catalog cache invalidations by tuple TID.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TID isn't stable enough: we might queue an sinval event before a VACUUM FULL, and then process it afterwards, when the target tuple no longer has the same TID. So we must invalidate entries on the basis of hash value only. The old coding can be shown to result in various bizarre, hard-to-reproduce errors in the presence of concurrent VACUUM FULLs on system catalogs, and could easily result in permanent catalog corruption, up to and including complete loss of tables. This commit is just a minimal fix that removes the unsafe comparison. We should remove transmission of the tuple TID from sinval messages altogether, and then arrange to suppress the extra message in the common case of a heap_update that doesn't change the key hashvalue. But that's going to be much more invasive, and will only produce a probably-marginal performance gain, so it doesn't seem like material for a back-patch. Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, VACUUM FULL refused to do any tuple moving if it found any INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuples (and CLUSTER would give up altogether), so there was no risk of moving a tuple that might be the subject of an unsent sinval message.
* Fix incorrect order of operations during sinval reset processing.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have to be sure that we have revalidated each nailed-in-cache relcache entry before we try to use it to load data for some other relcache entry. The introduction of "mapped relations" in 9.0 broke this, because although we updated the state kept in relmapper.c early enough, we failed to propagate that information into relcache entries soon enough; in particular, we could try to fetch pg_class rows out of pg_class before we'd updated its relcache entry's rd_node.relNode value from the map. This bug accounts for Dave Gould's report of failures after "vacuum full pg_class", and I believe that there is risk for other system catalogs as well. The core part of the fix is to copy relmapper data into the relcache entries during "phase 1" in RelationCacheInvalidate(), before they'll be used in "phase 2". To try to future-proof the code against other similar bugs, I also rearranged the order in which nailed relations are visited during phase 2: now it's pg_class first, then pg_class_oid_index, then other nailed relations. This should ensure that RelationClearRelation can apply RelationReloadIndexInfo to all nailed indexes without risking use of not-yet-revalidated relcache entries. Back-patch to 9.0 where the relation mapper was introduced.
* Preserve toast value OIDs in toast-swap-by-content for CLUSTER/VACUUM FULL.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This works around the problem that a catalog cache entry might contain a toast pointer that we try to dereference just as a VACUUM FULL completes on that catalog. We will see the sinval message on the cache entry when we acquire lock on the toast table, but by that point we've already told tuptoaster.c "here's the pointer to fetch", so it's difficult from a code structural standpoint to update the pointer before we use it. Much less painful to ensure that toast pointers are not invalidated in the first place. We have to add a bit of code to deal with the case that a value that previously wasn't toasted becomes so; but that should be a seldom-exercised corner case, so the inefficiency shouldn't be significant. Back-patch to 9.0. In prior versions, we didn't allow CLUSTER on system catalogs, and VACUUM FULL didn't result in reassignment of toast OIDs, so there was no problem.
* Fix race condition in relcache init file invalidation.Tom Lane2011-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous code tried to synchronize by unlinking the init file twice, but that doesn't actually work: it leaves a window wherein a third process could read the already-stale init file but miss the SI messages that would tell it the data is stale. The result would be bizarre failures in catalog accesses, typically "could not read block 0 in file ..." later during startup. Instead, hold RelCacheInitLock across both the unlink and the sending of the SI messages. This is more straightforward, and might even be a bit faster since only one unlink call is needed. This has been wrong since it was put in (in 2002!), so back-patch to all supported releases.
* Add "Reason code" prefix to internal SSI error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | This makes it clearer that the error message is perhaps not supposed to be understood by users, and it also makes it somewhat clearer that it was not accidentally omitted from translation. Idea from Heikki Linnakangas, except that we don't mark "Reason code" for translation at this point, because that would make the implementation too cumbersome.
* Fix unsafe order of operations in foreign-table DDL commands.Tom Lane2011-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When updating or deleting a system catalog tuple, it's necessary to acquire RowExclusiveLock on the catalog before looking up the tuple; otherwise a concurrent VACUUM FULL on the catalog might move the tuple to a different TID before we can apply the update. Coding patterns that find the tuple via a table scan aren't at risk here, but when obtaining the tuple from a catalog cache, correct ordering is important; and several routines in foreigncmds.c got it wrong. Noted while running the regression tests in parallel with VACUUM FULL of assorted system catalogs. For consistency I moved all the heap_open calls to the starts of their functions, including a couple for which there was no actual bug. Back-patch to 8.4 where foreigncmds.c was added.
* Fix incorrect timeout handling during initial authentication transaction.Tom Lane2011-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The statement start timestamp was not set before initiating the transaction that is used to look up client authentication information in pg_authid. In consequence, enable_sig_alarm computed a wrong value (far in the past) for statement_fin_time. That didn't have any immediate effect, because the timeout alarm was set without reference to statement_fin_time; but if we subsequently blocked on a lock for a short time, CheckStatementTimeout would consult the bogus value when we cancelled the lock timeout wait, and then conclude we'd timed out, leading to immediate failure of the connection attempt. Thus an innocent "vacuum full pg_authid" would cause failures of concurrent connection attempts. Noted while testing other, more serious consequences of vacuum full on system catalogs. We should set the statement timestamp before StartTransactionCommand(), so that the transaction start timestamp is also valid. I'm not sure if there are any non-cosmetic effects of it not being valid, but the xact timestamp is at least sent to the statistics machinery. Back-patch to 9.0. Before that, the client authentication timeout was done outside any transaction and did not depend on this state to be valid.
* Unbreak legacy syntax "COMMENT ON RULE x IS y", with no relation name.Robert Haas2011-08-11
| | | | | check_object_ownership() isn't happy about the null relation pointer. We could fix it there, but this seems more future-proof.
* Back-patch assorted latch-related fixes.Tom Lane2011-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | Fix a whole bunch of signal handlers that had been hacked to do things that might change errno, without adding the necessary save/restore logic for errno. Also make some minor fixes in unix_latch.c, and clean up bizarre and unsafe scheme for disowning the process's latch. While at it, rename the PGPROC latch field to procLatch for consistency with 9.2. Issues noted while reviewing a patch by Peter Geoghegan.
* Measure WaitLatch's timeout parameter in milliseconds, not microseconds.Tom Lane2011-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | The original definition had the problem that timeouts exceeding about 2100 seconds couldn't be specified on 32-bit machines. Milliseconds seem like sufficient resolution, and finer grain than that would be fantasy anyway on many platforms. Back-patch to 9.1 so that this aspect of the latch API won't change between 9.1 and later releases. Peter Geoghegan
* Documentation improvement and minor code cleanups for the latch facility.Tom Lane2011-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve the documentation around weak-memory-ordering risks, and do a pass of general editorialization on the comments in the latch code. Make the Windows latch code more like the Unix latch code where feasible; in particular provide the same Assert checks in both implementations. Fix poorly-placed WaitLatch call in syncrep.c. This patch resolves, for the moment, concerns around weak-memory-ordering bugs in latch-related code: we have documented the restrictions and checked that existing calls meet them. In 9.2 I hope that we will install suitable memory barrier instructions in SetLatch/ResetLatch, so that their callers don't need to be quite so careful.
* Fix nested PlaceHolderVar expressions that appear only in targetlists.Tom Lane2011-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A PlaceHolderVar's expression might contain another, lower-level PlaceHolderVar. If the outer PlaceHolderVar is used, the inner one certainly will be also, and so we have to make sure that both of them get into the placeholder_list with correct ph_may_need values during the initial pre-scan of the query (before deconstruct_jointree starts). We did this correctly for PlaceHolderVars appearing in the query quals, but overlooked the issue for those appearing in the top-level targetlist; with the result that nested placeholders referenced only in the targetlist did not work correctly, as illustrated in bug #6154. While at it, add some error checking to find_placeholder_info to ensure that we don't try to create new placeholders after it's too late to do so; they have to all be created before deconstruct_jointree starts. Back-patch to 8.4 where the PlaceHolderVar mechanism was introduced.
* Clean up ill-advised attempt to invent a private set of Node tags.Tom Lane2011-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | Somebody thought it'd be cute to invent a set of Node tag numbers that were defined independently of, and indeed conflicting with, the main tag-number list. While this accidentally failed to fail so far, it would certainly lead to trouble as soon as anyone wanted to, say, apply copyObject to these node types. Clang was already complaining about the use of makeNode on these tags, and I think quite rightly so. Fix by pushing these node definitions into the mainstream, including putting replnodes.h where it belongs.
* Reduce PG_SYSLOG_LIMIT to 900 bytes.Tom Lane2011-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous limit of 1024 was set on the assumption that all modern syslog implementations have line length limits of 2KB or so. However, this is false, as at least Solaris and sysklogd truncate at only 1KB. 900 seems to leave enough room for the max likely length of the tacked-on prefixes, so let's go with that. As with the previous change, it doesn't seem wise to back-patch this into already-released branches; but it should be OK to sneak it into 9.1. Noah Misch
* Move CheckRecoveryConflictDeadlock() call to a safer place.Tom Lane2011-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This kluge was inserted in a spot apparently chosen at random: the lock manager's state is not yet fully set up for the wait, and in particular LockWaitCancel hasn't been armed by setting lockAwaited, so the ProcLock will not get cleaned up if the ereport is thrown. This seems to not cause any observable problem in trivial test cases, because LockReleaseAll will silently clean up the debris; but I was able to cause failures with tests involving subtransactions. Fixes breakage induced by commit c85c941470efc44494fd7a5f426ee85fc65c268c. Back-patch to all affected branches.
* Fix incorrect initialization of ProcGlobal->startupBufferPinWaitBufId.Tom Lane2011-08-02
| | | | | | | It was initialized in the wrong place and to the wrong value. With bad luck this could result in incorrect query-cancellation failures in hot standby sessions, should a HS backend be holding pin on buffer number 1 while trying to acquire a lock.
* Avoid integer overflow when LIMIT + OFFSET >= 2^63.Heikki Linnakangas2011-08-02
