* Adjust probe for getaddrinfo to cope with macro-ized definitions, suchTom Lane2006-02-21
| | | | as Tru64's. Per previous discussion.
* Fix bug that allowed any logged-in user to SET ROLE to any other database userTom Lane2006-02-12
| | | | | | | | id (CVE-2006-0553). Also fix related bug in SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION that allows unprivileged users to crash the server, if it has been compiled with Asserts enabled. The escalation-of-privilege risk exists only in 8.1.0-8.1.2. However, the Assert-crash risk exists in all releases back to 7.3. Thanks to Akio Ishida for reporting this problem.

* Change search for default operator classes so that it examines all opclassesTom Lane2006-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | regardless of the current schema search path. Since CREATE OPERATOR CLASS only allows one default opclass per datatype regardless of schemas, this should have minimal impact, and it fixes problems with failure to find a desired opclass while restoring dump files. Per discussion at http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-02/msg00284.php. Remove now-redundant-or-unused code in typcache.c and namespace.c, and backpatch as far as 8.0.
* Set progname early in the postmaster/postgres binary, rather than doingBruce Momjian2006-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | it later. This fixes a problem where EXEC_BACKEND didn't have progname set, causing a segfault if log_min_messages was set below debug2 and our own snprintf.c was being used. Also alway strdup() progname. Backpatch to 8.1.X and 8.0.X.
* Fix code that checks to see if an index can be considered to match the query'sTom Lane2006-01-29
| | | | | | | | | requested sort order. It was assuming that build_index_pathkeys always generates a pathkey per index column, which was not true if implied equality deduction had determined that two index columns were effectively equated to each other. Simplest fix seems to be to install an option that causes build_index_pathkeys to support this behavior as well as the original one. Per report from Brian Hirt.
* It turns out that TablespaceCreateDbspace fails badly if a relcache flushTom Lane2006-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | occurs when it tries to heap_open pg_tablespace. When control returns to smgrcreate, that routine will be holding a dangling pointer to a closed SMgrRelation, resulting in mayhem. This is of course a consequence of the violation of proper module layering inherent in having smgr.c call a tablespace command routine, but the simplest fix seems to be to change the locking mechanism. There's no real need for TablespaceCreateDbspace to touch pg_tablespace at all --- it's only opening it as a way of locking against a parallel DROP TABLESPACE command. A much better answer is to create a special-purpose LWLock to interlock these two operations. This drops TablespaceCreateDbspace quite a few layers down the food chain and makes it something reasonably safe for smgr to call.
* Modify pgstats code to reduce performance penalties from oversized stats dataTom Lane2006-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | files: avoid creating stats hashtable entries for tables that aren't being touched except by vacuum/analyze, ensure that entries for dropped tables are removed promptly, and tweak the data layout to avoid storing useless struct padding. Also improve the performance of pgstat_vacuum_tabstat(), and make sure that autovacuum invokes it exactly once per autovac cycle rather than multiple times or not at all. This should cure recent complaints about 8.1 showing much higher stats I/O volume than was seen in 8.0. It'd still be a good idea to revisit the design with an eye to not re-writing the entire stats dataset every half second ... but that would be too much to backpatch, I fear.
* Fix fsync code to test whether F_FULLFSYNC is available, instead ofTom Lane2006-01-17
| | | | assuming it always is on Darwin. Per report from Neil Brandt.
* Repair "Halloween problem" in EvalPlanQual: a tuple that's been inserted byTom Lane2006-01-12
| | | | | | | | our own command (or more generally, xmin = our xact and cmin >= current command ID) should not be seen as good. Else we may try to update rows we already updated. This error was inserted last August while fixing the even bigger problem that the old coding wouldn't see *any* tuples inserted by our own transaction as good. Per report from Euler Taveira de Oliveira.
* Stamp release 8.1.2.Bruce Momjian2006-01-05

* Arrange to set the LC_XXX environment variables to match our locale setup.Tom Lane2006-01-05
| | | | Back-patch of previous fix in HEAD for plperl-vs-locale issue.
* Defend against crash while processing Describe Statement or Describe PortalTom Lane2005-12-14
| | | | | | messages, when client attempts to execute these outside a transaction (start one) or in a failed transaction (reject message, except for COMMIT/ROLLBACK statements which we can handle). Per report from Francisco Figueiredo Jr.
* I reconfirmed MS-VC6. Thank you for wonderful correspondence.Bruce Momjian2005-12-09
| | | | | | | | | However, Another problem newly occurred. This solves the problem of snprintf and vsnprintf. Patch to HEAD and 8.1.X. Hiroshi Saito

* Disble some Win32-specific code in win32-client-only builds:Bruce Momjian2005-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have the problem, when building by MS-VC6. An error occurs in the 8.1.0 present source codes. nmake -f win32.mak ..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(244) : error C2065: 'WSA_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY' ..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(342) : error C2065: 'WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND' This is used by winsock2.h. However, Construction of a windows base is winsock.h. Then, Since MinGW has special environment, this is right. but, it is not found in VC6. Furthermore, in getaddrinfo.c, IPV6-API is used by LoadLibraryA("ws2_32"); Referring to of dll the external memory generates this violation by VC6 specification. I considered whether the whole should have been converted into winsock2. However, Now, DLL of MinGW creation operates wonderfully as it is. That's right, it has pliability by replacement of simple DLL. Then, I propose the system using winsock(non IPV6) in construction of VC6. Hiroshi Saito
* Add documentation on the use of *printf() macros and libintl.Bruce Momjian2005-12-06
| | | | Backpatch to 8.1.X.
* Put undef's before extern declarations that need 'em, per Andrew Dunstan.Tom Lane2005-12-06

* Make Win32 build use our port/snprintf.c routines, instead of dependingTom Lane2005-12-06
| | | | | on libintl which may or may not provide what we need. Make a few marginal cleanups to ensure this works. Andrew Dunstan and Tom Lane.
* Tweak hash join code to use an additional heuristic for deciding whetherTom Lane2005-11-28
| | | | | | | | it's worth probing the outer relation for emptiness before building the hash table. To wit, if we're rescanning a join previously performed, remember whether we found it nonempty the previous time, and don't bother with the probe if it was nonempty. This buys back the performance lost in examples like Mario Weilguni's.
* Get rid of ExecAssignResultTypeFromOuterPlan() and make all plan node typesTom Lane2005-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | generate their output tuple descriptors from their target lists (ie, using ExecAssignResultTypeFromTL()). We long ago fixed things so that all node types have minimally valid tlists, so there's no longer any good reason to have two different ways of doing it. This change is needed to fix bug reported by Hayden James: the fix of 2005-11-03 to emit the correct column names after optimizing away a SubqueryScan node didn't work if the new top-level plan node used ExecAssignResultTypeFromOuterPlan to generate its tupdesc, since the next plan node down won't have the correct column labels.
* Re-run pgindent, fixing a problem where comment lines after a blankBruce Momjian2005-11-22
| | | | | | | | | comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for indenting). Backpatch to 8.1.X.
* Modify tuptoaster's API so that it does not try to modify the passedTom Lane2005-11-20
| | | | | | | | | tuple in-place, but instead passes back an all-new tuple structure if any changes are needed. This is a much cleaner and more robust solution for the bug discovered by Alexey Beschiokov; accordingly, revert the quick hack I installed yesterday. With this change, HeapTupleData.t_datamcxt is no longer needed; will remove it in a separate commit in HEAD only.
* DropRelFileNodeBuffers failed to fix the state of the lookup hash tableTom Lane2005-11-17
| | | | | | | | that was added to localbuf.c in 8.1; therefore, applying it to a temp table left corrupt lookup state in memory. The only case where this had a significant chance of causing problems was an ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS temp table; the other possible paths left bogus state that was unlikely to be used again. Per report from Csaba Nagy.
* Restore the former RestrictInfo field valid_everywhere (but invert the flagTom Lane2005-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | sense and rename to "outerjoin_delayed" to more clearly reflect what it means). I had decided that it was redundant in 8.1, but the folly of this is exposed by a bug report from Sebastian Böck. The place where it's needed is to prevent orindxpath.c from cherry-picking arms of an outer-join OR clause to form a relation restriction that isn't actually legal to push down to the relation scan level. There may be some legal cases that this forbids optimizing, but we'd need much closer analysis to determine it.
* Prevent ExecInsert() and ExecUpdate() from scribbling on the result tupleTom Lane2005-11-14
| | | | | | | slot of the topmost plan node when a trigger returns a modified tuple. These appear to be the only places where a plan node's caller did not treat the result slot as read-only, which is an assumption that nodeUnique makes as of 8.1. Fixes trigger-vs-DISTINCT bug reported by Frank van Vugt.
* Repair an error introduced by log_line_prefix patch: it is not acceptableTom Lane2005-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | to assume that the string pointer passed to set_ps_display is good forever. There's no need to anyway since ps_status.c itself saves the string, and we already had an API (get_ps_display) to return it. I believe this explains Jim Nasby's report of intermittent crashes in elog.c when %i format code is in use in log_line_prefix. While at it, repair a previously unnoticed problem: on some platforms such as Darwin, the string returned by get_ps_display was blank-padded to the maximum length, meaning that lock.c's attempt to append " waiting" to it never worked.
* Disregard superuserness when checking to see if a role GRANT wouldTom Lane2005-11-04
| | | | | | | | | create circularity of role memberships. This is a minimum-impact fix for the problem reported by Florian Pflug. I thought about removing the superuser_arg test from is_member_of_role() altogether, as it seems redundant for many of the callers --- but not all, and it's way too late in the 8.1 cycle to be making large changes. Perhaps reconsider this later.
* Rename the members of CommandDest enum so they don't collide with other uses ofAlvaro Herrera2005-11-03
| | | | | those names. (Debug and None were pretty bad names anyway.) I hope I catched all uses of the names in comments too.
* Adjust parser so that POSTQUEL-style implicit RTEs are stored withTom Lane2005-10-26
| | | | | | inFromCl true, meaning that they will list out as explicit RTEs if they are in a view or rule. Update comments about inFromCl to reflect the way it's now actually used. Per recent discussion.
* Fix Windows setitimer() emulation to not depend on delivering an APCTom Lane2005-10-25
| | | | | | to the main thread. This allows removal of WaitForSingleObjectEx() calls from the main thread, thereby allowing us to re-enable Qingqing Zhou's CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS performance improvement. Qingqing, Magnus, et al.
* Temporarily disable Qingqing's Windows signal processing patch, so thatTom Lane2005-10-22
| | | | | | WaitForSingleObjectEx is always called by CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS. This should be reinstated but the setitimer() emulation will have to be redesigned first.
* Improve performance of CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() macro on Windows by not doingTom Lane2005-10-21
| | | | | | | a kernel call unless there's some evidence of a pending signal. This should bring its performance on Windows into line with the Unix version. Problem diagnosis and patch by Qingqing Zhou. Minor stylistic tweaks by moi ... if it's broken, it's my fault.
* Add an implicit cast from varchar to regclass, so that existing codeTom Lane2005-10-21
| | | | | of the form nextval('foo'::varchar) doesn't break. Per gripe from Jean-Pierre Pelletier. Initdb forced :-(
* Improve trace_sort code to also show the total memory or disk space used.Tom Lane2005-10-18
| | | | Per request from Marc.
* Code review for regexp_replace patch. Improve documentation and comments,Tom Lane2005-10-18
| | | | | | | fix problems with replacement-string backslashes that aren't followed by one of the expected characters, avoid giving the impression that replace_text_regexp() is meant to be called directly as a SQL function, etc.
* Clean up libpq's pollution of application namespace by renaming theTom Lane2005-10-17
| | | | | | exported routines of ip.c, md5.c, and fe-auth.c to begin with 'pg_'. Also get rid of the vestigial fe_setauthsvc/fe_getauthsvc routines altogether.

* Fix syslog bug: if any messages are emitted to write_syslog beforeTom Lane2005-10-14
| | | | | | | | | the facility has been set, the facility gets set to LOCAL0 and cannot be changed later. This seems reasonably plausible to happen, particularly at higher debug log levels, though I am not certain it explains Han Holl's recent report. Easiest fix is to teach the code how to change the value on-the-fly, which is nicer anyway. I made the settings PGC_SIGHUP to conform with log_destination.
* Add a comment describing the requirement that pointers into shared memoryNeil Conway2005-10-13
| | | | that is protected by a spinlock must be volatile, per recent discussion.
* Do all accesses to shared buffer headers through volatile-qualifiedTom Lane2005-10-12
| | | | | | | pointers, to ensure that compilers won't rearrange accesses to occur while we're not holding the buffer header spinlock. It's probably not necessary to mark volatile in every single place in bufmgr.c, but better safe than sorry. Per trouble report from Kevin Grittner.
* Add infrastructure for making spins_per_delay variable depending onTom Lane2005-10-11
| | | | | | whether we seem to be running in a uniprocessor or multiprocessor. The adjustment rules could probably still use further tweaking, but I'm convinced this should be a win overall.
* Don't use a non-locked pre-test of the spinlock on x86_64 machines.Tom Lane2005-10-11
| | | | | The pre-test has been shown to be a big loss on Opterons and at best a wash on EM64T.
* Fix the problem of GRANTs creating "dangling" privileges not directlyTom Lane2005-10-10
| | | | | | traceable to grant options. As per my earlier proposal, a GRANT made by a role member has to be recorded as being granted by the role that actually holds the grant option, and not the member.
* Fix (hopefully for the last time) problems with datetime values displayingTom Lane2005-10-09
| | | | | | | like '23:59:60' because of fractional-second roundoff problems. Trying to control this upstream of the actual display code was hopeless; the right way is to explicitly round fractional seconds in the display code and then refigure the results if the fraction rounds up to 1. Per bug #1927.
* Add spaces around operator.Bruce Momjian2005-10-07

* Allocate a few extra LWLocks for possible use by add-on modules.Tom Lane2005-10-07
| | | | Per request from Marc Munro.
* Remove an unused typedef.Alvaro Herrera2005-10-07
|
* Minor API cleanup for async notifications: we can only register theNeil Conway2005-10-06
| | | | | current backend in pg_listener, so there is little point in making the PID to register part of async.c's public API. Other minor tweaks.
* When a function not returning RECORD has a single OUT parameter, useTom Lane2005-10-06
| | | | | | | | the parameter's name (if any) as the default column name for SELECT FROM the function, rather than the function name as previously. I still think this is a bad idea, but I lost the argument. Force decompilation of function RTEs to specify full aliases always, to reduce the odds of this decision breaking dumped views.
