failed (due to lock conflicts or out-of-space). We might have already
extended the index's filesystem EOF before failing, causing the EOF to be
beyond what the metapage says is the last used page. Hence the invariant
maintained by the code needs to be "EOF is at or beyond last used page",
not "EOF is exactly the last used page". Problem was created by my patch
of 2006-11-19 that attempted to repair bug #2737. Since that was
back-patched to 7.4, this needs to be as well. Per report and test case
from Vlastimil Krejcir.

return void ends with a SELECT, if that SELECT has a single result that is
also of type void. Without this, it's hard to write a void function that
calls another void function. Per gripe from Peter.
Back-patch as far as 8.0.

failures, such as an allegedly stable function returning non-stable results.
Bug goes all the way back to the introduction of read-only mode in 8.0.

did not expect that a DEAD tuple could follow a RECENTLY_DEAD tuple in an
update chain, but because the OldestXmin rule for determining deadness is a
simplification of reality, it is possible for this situation to occur
(implying that the RECENTLY_DEAD tuple is in fact dead to all observers,
but this patch does not attempt to exploit that). The code would follow a
chain forward all the way, but then stop before a DEAD tuple when backing
up, meaning that not all of the chain got moved. This could lead to copying
the chain multiple times (resulting in duplicate copies of the live tuple at
its end), or leaving dangling index entries behind (which, aside from
generating warnings from later vacuums, creates a risk of wrong query
results or bogus duplicate-key errors once the heap slot the index entry
points to is repopulated).
The fix is to recheck HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum while following a chain
forward, and to stop if a DEAD tuple is reached. Each contiguous group
of RECENTLY_DEAD tuples will therefore be copied as a separate chain.
The patch also adds a couple of extra sanity checks to verify correct
behavior.
Per report and test case from Pavan Deolasee.

POSIX-style timezone specs that don't exactly match any database entry will
be treated as having correct USA DST rules. Also, document that this can
be changed if you want to use some other DST rules with a POSIX zone spec.
We could consider changing localtime.c's TZDEFRULESTRING, but since that
facility can only deal with one DST transition rule, it seems fairly useless
now; might as well just plan to override it using a "posixrules" entry.
Backpatch as far as 8.0. There isn't much we can do in 7.x ... either your
libc gets it right, or it doesn't.

check_sql_fn_retval allows binary-compatibility cases, the expression
extracted from an inline-able SQL function might have a type that is only
binary-compatible with the declared function result type. To avoid possibly
changing the semantics of the expression, we should insert a RelabelType node
in such cases. This has only been shown to have bad consequences in recent
8.1 and up releases, but I suspect there may be failure cases in the older
branches too, so patch it all the way back. Per bug #3116 from Greg Mullane.
Along the way, fix an omission in eval_const_expressions_mutator: it failed
to copy the relabelformat field when processing a RelabelType. No known
observable failures from this, but it definitely isn't intended behavior.

get away with not (re)initializing a local variable if the variable is marked
"isconst" and not "isnull". Unfortunately it makes this decision after having
already freed the old value, meaning that something like
for i in 1..10 loop
declare c constant text := 'hi there';
leads to subsequent accesses to freed memory, and hence probably crashes.
(In particular, this is why Asif Ali Rehman's bug leads to crash and not
just an unexpectedly-NULL value for SQLERRM: SQLERRM is marked CONSTANT
and so triggers this error.)
The whole thing seems wrong on its face anyway: CONSTANT means that you can't
change the variable inside the block, not that the initializer expression is
guaranteed not to change value across successive block entries. Hence,
remove the "optimization" instead of trying to fix it.

DECLARE section needs to know about it. Formerly, everyplace besides DECLARE
that created variables needed to do "plpgsql_add_initdatums(NULL)" to prevent
those variables from being sucked up as part of a subsequent DECLARE block.
This is obviously error-prone, and in fact the SQLSTATE/SQLERRM patch had
failed to do it for those two variables, leading to the bug recently exhibited
by Asif Ali Rehman: a DECLARE within an exception handler tried to reinitialize
SQLERRM.
Although the SQLSTATE/SQLERRM patch isn't in any pre-8.1 branches, and so
I can't point to a demonstrable failure there, it seems wise to back-patch
this into the older branches anyway, just to keep the logic similar to HEAD.

thought that it didn't have to reposition the underlying tuplestore if the
portal is atEnd. But this is not so, because tuplestores have separate read
and write cursors ... and the read cursor hasn't moved from the start.
This mistake explains bug #2970 from William Zhang.
Note: the coding here is pretty inefficient, but given that no one has noticed
this bug until now, I'd say hardly anyone uses the case where the cursor has
been advanced before being persisted. So maybe it's not worth worrying about.

out that ExecEvalVar and friends don't necessarily have access to a tuple
descriptor with correct typmod: it definitely can contain -1, and possibly
might contain other values that are different from the Var's value.
Arguably this should be cleaned up someday, but it's not a simple change,
and in any case typmod discrepancies don't pose a security hazard.
Per reports from numerous people :-(
I'm not entirely sure whether the failure can occur in 8.0 --- the simple
test cases reported so far don't trigger it there. But back-patch the
change all the way anyway.

made query plan. Use of ALTER COLUMN TYPE creates a hazard for cached
query plans: they could contain Vars that claim a column has a different
type than it now has. Fix this by checking during plan startup that Vars
at relation scan level match the current relation tuple descriptor. Since
at that point we already have at least AccessShareLock, we can be sure the
column type will not change underneath us later in the query. However,
since a backend's locks do not conflict against itself, there is still a
hole for an attacker to exploit: he could try to execute ALTER COLUMN TYPE
while a query is in progress in the current backend. Seal that hole by
rejecting ALTER TABLE whenever the target relation is already open in
the current backend.
This is a significant security hole: not only can one trivially crash the
backend, but with appropriate misuse of pass-by-reference datatypes it is
possible to read out arbitrary locations in the server process's memory,
which could allow retrieving database content the user should not be able
to see. Our thanks to Jeff Trout for the initial report.

we should check that the function code returns the claimed result datatype
every time we parse the function for execution. Formerly, for simple
scalar result types we assumed the creation-time check was sufficient, but
this fails if the function selects from a table that's been redefined since
then, and even more obviously fails if check_function_bodies had been OFF.

by plpgsql can themselves use SPI --- possibly indirectly, as in the case
of domain_in() invoking plpgsql functions in a domain check constraint.
Per bug #2945 from Sergiy Vyshnevetskiy.
Somewhat arbitrarily, I've chosen to back-patch this as far as 8.0. Given
the lack of prior complaints, it doesn't seem critical for 7.x.

exactly at the point where we need to insert a new item, the calculation used
the wrong size for the "high key" of the new left page. This could lead to
choosing an unworkable split, resulting in "PANIC: failed to add item to the
left sibling" (or "right sibling") failure. Although this bug has been there
a long time, it's very difficult to trigger a failure before 8.2, since there
was generally a lot of free space on both sides of a chosen split. In 8.2,
where the user-selected fill factor determines how much free space the code
tries to leave, an unworkable split is much more likely. Report by Joe
Conway, diagnosis and fix by Heikki Linnakangas.

page about the maximum UTF8 sequence length we support (4 bytes since 8.1,
3 before that). pg_utf2wchar_with_len never got updated to support 4-byte
characters at all, and in any case had a buffer-overrun risk in that it
could produce multiple pg_wchars from what mblen claims to be just one UTF8
character. The only reason we don't have a major security hole is that most
callers allocate worst-case output buffers; the sole exception in released
versions appears to be pre-8.2 iwchareq() (ie, ILIKE), which can be crashed
due to zeroing out its return address --- but AFAICS that can't be exploited
for anything more than a crash, due to inability to control what gets written
there. Per report from James Russell and Michael Fuhr.
Pre-8.1 the risk is much less, but I still think pg_utf2wchar_with_len's
behavior given an incomplete final character risks buffer overrun, so
back-patch that logic change anyway.
This patch also makes sure that UTF8 sequences exceeding the supported
length (whichever it is) are consistently treated as error cases, rather
than being treated like a valid shorter sequence in some places.

involving unions of types having typmods. Variants of the failure are known
to occur in 8.1 and up; not sure if it's possible in 8.0 and 7.4, but since
the code exists that far back, I'll just patch 'em all. Per report from
Brian Hurt.

form '^(foo)$'. Before, these could never be optimized into indexscans.
The recent changes to make psql and pg_dump generate such patterns (for \d
commands and -t and related switches, respectively) therefore represented
a big performance hit for people with large pg_class catalogs, as seen in
recent gripe from Erik Jones. While at it, be more paranoid about
case-sensitivity checking in multibyte encodings, and fix some other
corner cases in which a regex might be interpreted too liberally.

ps_TupFromTlist in plan nodes that make use of it. This was being done
correctly in join nodes and Result nodes but not in any relation-scan nodes.
Bug would lead to bogus results if a set-returning function appeared in the
targetlist of a subquery that could be rescanned after partial execution,
for example a subquery within EXISTS(). Bug has been around forever :-(
... surprising it wasn't reported before.

(in particular, causing the ReadyForQuery message to be eaten) before
returning from do_copy. The only known consequence of failing to do so is
that get_prompt might show a wrong result for the %x transaction status
escape, as reported by Bernd Helmle; but it's possible there are other issues.
Back-patch as far as 7.4, the oldest version supporting %x.

any no-longer-needed segments; just truncate them to zero bytes and leave
the files in place for possible future re-use. This avoids problems when
the segments are re-used due to relation growth shortly after truncation.
Before, the bgwriter, and possibly other backends, could still be holding
open file references to the old segment files, and would write dirty blocks
into those files where they'd disappear from the view of other processes.
Back-patch as far as 8.0. I believe the 7.x branches are not vulnerable,
because they had no bgwriter, and "blind" writes by other backends would
always be done via freshly-opened file references.

preference for filling pages out-of-order tends to confuse the sanity checks
in md.c, as per report from Balazs Nagy in bug #2737. The fix is to ensure
that the smgr-level code always has the same idea of the logical EOF as the
hash index code does, by using ReadBuffer(P_NEW) where we are adding a single
page to the end of the index, and using smgrextend() to reserve a large batch
of pages when creating a new splitpoint. The patch is a bit ugly because it
avoids making any changes in md.c, which seems the most prudent approach for a
backpatchable beta-period fix. After 8.3 development opens, I'll take a look
at a cleaner but more invasive patch, in particular getting rid of the now
unnecessary hack to allow reading beyond EOF in mdread().
Backpatch as far as 7.4. The bug likely exists in 7.3 as well, but because
of the magnitude of the 7.3-to-7.4 changes in hash, the later-version patch
doesn't even begin to apply. Given the other known bugs in the 7.3-era hash
code, it does not seem worth trying to develop a separate patch for 7.3.

sub-arrays. Per discussion, if all inputs are empty arrays then result
must be an empty array too, whereas a mix of empty and nonempty arrays
should (and already did) draw an error. In the back branches, the
construct was strict: any NULL input immediately yielded a NULL output;
so I left that behavior alone. HEAD was simply ignoring NULL sub-arrays,
which doesn't seem very sensible. For lack of a better idea it now
treats NULL sub-arrays the same as empty ones.

_bt_pagedel to recover from the failure: just search the whole parent level
if searching to the right fails. This does nothing for the underlying problem
that index keys became out-of-order in the grandparent level. However, we
believe that there is no other consequence worse than slightly inefficient
searching, so this narrow patch seems like the safest solution for the back
branches.

1) pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket(): WaitForMultipleObjectsEx now called with
finite timeout (100ms) in case of FP_WRITE and UDP socket. If timeout occurs
then pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket() tries to write empty packet goes to
WaitForMultipleObjectsEx again.
2) pgwin32_send(): add loop around WSASend and pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket().
The reason is: for overlapped socket, 'ok' result from
pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket() isn't guarantee that socket is still free,
it can become busy again and following WSASend call will fail with
WSAEWOULDBLOCK error.

rows --- if the surrounding query queued any trigger events between the rows,
the events would be fired at the wrong time, leading to bizarre behavior.
Per report from Merlin Moncure.
This is a simple patch that should solve the problem fully in the back
branches, but in HEAD we also need to consider the possibility of queries
with RETURNING clauses. Will look into a fix for that separately.

I introduced in 7.4.1 :-(. It's correct to allow unknown to be coerced to
ANY or ANYELEMENT, since it's a real-enough data type, but it most certainly
isn't an array datatype. This can cause a backend crash but AFAICT is not
exploitable as a security hole. Per report from Michael Fuhr.
Note: as fixed in HEAD, this changes a constant in the pg_stats view,
resulting in a change in the expected regression outputs. The back-branch
patches have been hacked to avoid that, so that pre-existing installations
won't start failing their regression tests.

attislocal = true, since they are not really inherited but merely copied

Formerly they'd emit '^foo|bar$' which is wrong because the anchors are
parsed as part of the alternatives; must emit '^(foo|bar)$' to get expected

overlapping possible matches for the separator string, such as

Also, revise the logic of replace(), split_part(), and string_to_array()
to avoid O(N^2) work from redundant searches and conversions to pg_wchar
format when there are N matches to the separator string.
Backpatched the full patch as far as 8.0. 7.4 also has the bug, but the
code has diverged a lot, so I just went for a quick-and-dirty fix of the
bug itself in that branch.
