* Remove usage of &PL_sv_undef in hashes and arraysAlvaro Herrera2011-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to perlguts, &PL_sv_undef is not the right thing to use in those cases because it doesn't behave the same way as an undef value via Perl code. Seems the intuitive way to deal with undef values is subtly enough broken that it's hard to notice when misused. The broken uses got inadvertently introduced in commit 87bb2ade2ce646083f39d5ab3e3307490211ad04 by Alexey Klyukin, Alex Hunsaker and myself on 2011-02-17; no backpatch is necessary. Per testing report from Greg Mullane. Author: Alex Hunsaker

* Fix null-dereference crash in parse_xml_decl().Tom Lane2011-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | parse_xml_decl's header comment says you can pass NULL for any unwanted output parameter, but it failed to honor this contract for the "standalone" flag. The only currently-affected caller is xml_recv, so the net effect is that sending a binary XML value containing a standalone parameter in its xml declaration would crash the backend. Per bug #6044 from Christopher Dillard. In passing, remove useless initializations of parse_xml_decl's output parameters in xml_parse. Back-patch to 8.3, where this code was introduced.

* Improve corner cases in pg_ctl's new wait-for-postmaster-startup code.Tom Lane2011-05-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With "-w -t 0", we should report "still starting up", not "ok". If we fall out of the loop without ever being able to call PQping (because we were never able to construct a connection string), report "no response", not "ok". This gets rid of corner cases in which we'd claim the server had started even though it had not. Also, if the postmaster.pid file is not there at any point after we've waited 5 seconds, assume the postmaster has failed and report that, rather than almost-certainly-fruitlessly continuing to wait. The pidfile should appear almost instantly even when there is extensive startup work to do, so 5 seconds is already a very conservative figure. This part is per a gripe from MauMau --- there might be better ways to do it, but nothing simple enough to get done for 9.1.
* Preserve caller's memory context in ProcessCompletedNotifies().Tom Lane2011-05-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is necessary to avoid long-term memory leakage, because the main loop in PostgresMain expects to be executing in MessageContext, and hence is a bit sloppy about freeing stuff that is only needed for the duration of processing the current client message. The known case of an actual leak is when encoding conversion has to be done on the incoming command string, but there might be others. Per report from Per-Olov Esgard. Back-patch to 9.0, where the bug was introduced by the LISTEN/NOTIFY rewrite.

* Make decompilation of optimized CASE constructs more robust.Tom Lane2011-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We had some hacks in ruleutils.c to cope with various odd transformations that the optimizer could do on a CASE foo WHEN "CaseTestExpr = RHS" clause. However, the fundamental impossibility of covering all cases was exposed by Heikki, who pointed out that the "=" operator could get replaced by an inlined SQL function, which could contain nearly anything at all. So give up on the hacks and just print the expression as-is if we fail to recognize it as "CaseTestExpr = RHS". (We must cover that case so that decompiled rules print correctly; but we are not under any obligation to make EXPLAIN output be 100% valid SQL in all cases, and already could not do so in some other cases.) This approach requires that we have some printable representation of the CaseTestExpr node type; I used "CASE_TEST_EXPR". Back-patch to all supported branches, since the problem case fails in all.
* Suppress extensions in partial dumps.Tom Lane2011-05-25
| | | | | | | | | We initially had pg_dump emit CREATE EXTENSION commands unconditionally. However, pg_dump has long been in the habit of not dumping procedural language definitions when a --schema or --table switch is given. It seems appropriate to handle extensions the same way, since like PLs they are SQL objects that are not in any particular schema. Per complaint from Adrian Schreyer.
* Put options in some sensible orderPeter Eisentraut2011-05-25
| | | | | | | For the --help output and reference pages of pg_dump, pg_dumpall, pg_restore, put the options in some consistent, mostly alphabetical, and consistent order, rather than newest option last or something like that.
* Convert builddoc.bat into a perl script that actually works.Andrew Dunstan2011-05-25
| | | | | | | | The old .bat file wasn't working for reasons that are unclear, and which it did not seem worth the trouble to ascertain. The new perl script has been tested and is known to work. Soon it will be tested regularly on the buildfarm. The .bat file is kept as a simple wrapper for the perl script.

* Cleanup for pull-up-isReset patch.Tom Lane2011-05-24
| | | | | | | | Clear isReset before, not after, calling the context-specific alloc method, so as to preserve the option to do a tail call in MemoryContextAlloc (and also so this code isn't assuming that a failed alloc call won't have changed the context's state before failing). Fix missed direct invocation of reset method. Reformat a comment.

* Make plpgsql complain about conflicting IN and OUT parameter names.Tom Lane2011-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | The core CREATE FUNCTION code only enforces that IN parameter names are non-duplicate, and that OUT parameter names are separately non-duplicate. This is because some function languages might not have any confusion between the two. But in plpgsql, such names are all in the same namespace, so we'd better disallow it. Per a recent complaint from Dan S. Not back-patching since this is a small issue and the change could cause unexpected failures if we started to enforce it in a minor release.

* Improve hash_array() logic for combining hash values.Robert Haas2011-05-23
| | | | | | | | | The new logic is less vulnerable to transpositions. This invalidates the contents of hash indexes built with the old functions; hence, bump catversion. Dean Rasheed

* Install defenses against overflow in BuildTupleHashTable().Tom Lane2011-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The planner can sometimes compute very large values for numGroups, and in cases where we have no alternative to building a hashtable, such a value will get fed directly to BuildTupleHashTable as its nbuckets parameter. There were two ways in which that could go bad. First, BuildTupleHashTable declared the parameter as "int" but most callers were passing "long"s, so on 64-bit machines undetected overflow could occur leading to a bogus negative value. The obvious fix for that is to change the parameter to "long", which is what I've done in HEAD. In the back branches that seems a bit risky, though, since third-party code might be calling this function. So for them, just put in a kluge to treat negative inputs as INT_MAX. Second, hash_create can go nuts with extremely large requested table sizes (notably, my_log2 becomes an infinite loop for inputs larger than LONG_MAX/2). What seems most appropriate to avoid that is to bound the initial table size request to work_mem. This fixes bug #6035 reported by Daniel Schreiber. Although the reported case only occurs back to 8.4 since it involves WITH RECURSIVE, I think it's a good idea to install the defenses in all supported branches.

* Make plpgsql provide the typmods for its variables to the main parser.Tom Lane2011-05-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically we didn't do this, even though we had the information, because plpgsql passed its Params via SPI APIs that only include type OIDs not typmods. Now that plpgsql uses parser callbacks to create Params, it's easy to insert the right typmod. This should generally result in lower surprise factors, because a plpgsql variable that is declared with a typmod will now work more like a table column with the same typmod. In particular it's the "right" way to fix bug #6020, in which plpgsql's attempt to return an anonymous record type is defeated by stricter record-type matching checks that were added in 9.0. However, it's not impossible that this could result in subtle behavioral changes that could break somebody's existing plpgsql code, so I'm afraid to back-patch this change into released branches. In those branches we'll have to lobotomize the record-type checks instead.

* Pull up isReset flag from AllocSetContext to MemoryContext struct. ThisHeikki Linnakangas2011-05-21
| | | | | | | | | avoids the overhead of one function call when calling MemoryContextReset(), and it seems like the isReset optimization would be applicable to any new memory context we might invent in the future anyway. This buys back the overhead I just added in previous patch to always call MemoryContextReset() in ExecScan, even when there's no quals or projections.
* Reset per-tuple memory context between every row in a scan node, even whenHeikki Linnakangas2011-05-21

* Fix untranslatable assembly of libpq connection failure messagePeter Eisentraut2011-05-19
| | | | | | | Even though this only affects the insertion of a parenthesized word, it's unwise to assume that parentheses can pass through untranslated. And in any case, the new version is clearer in the code and for translators.
* Consistent spacing for lengthy error messagesPeter Eisentraut2011-05-19
| | | | | | Also, we removed the display of the current value of max_connections/MaxBackends from some messages earlier, because it was confusing, so do that in the remaining one as well.

* Fix declaration of $_TD in "strict" trigger functionsAlvaro Herrera2011-05-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was broken in commit ef19dc6d39dd2490ff61489da55d95d6941140bf by the Bunce/Hunsaker/Dunstan team, which moved the declaration from plperl_create_sub to plperl_call_perl_trigger_func. This doesn't actually work because the validator code would not find the variable declared; and even if you manage to get past the validator, it still doesn't work because get_sv("_TD", GV_ADD) doesn't have the expected effect. The only reason this got beyond testing is that it only fails in strict mode. We need to declare it as a global just like %_SHARED; it is simpler than trying to actually do what the patch initially intended, and is said to have the same performance benefit. As a more serious issue, fix $_TD not being properly local()ized, meaning nested trigger functions would clobber $_TD. Alex Hunsaker, per test report from Greg Mullane

* Fix pg_dump's handling of extension-member casts and languages.Tom Lane2011-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | pg_dump has some heuristic rules for whether to dump casts and procedural languages, since it's not all that easy to distinguish built-in ones from user-defined ones. However, we should not apply those rules to objects that belong to an extension, but just use the perfectly well-defined rules for what to do with extension member objects. Otherwise we might mistakenly lose extension member objects during a binary upgrade (which is the only time that we'd want to dump extension members).

* Fix write-past-buffer-end in ldapServiceLookup().Tom Lane2011-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | The code to assemble ldap_get_values_len's output into a single string wrote the terminating null one byte past where it should. Fix that, and make some other cosmetic adjustments to make the code a trifle more readable and more in line with usual Postgres coding style. Also, free the "result" string when done with it, to avoid a permanent memory leak. Bug report and patch by Albe Laurenz, cosmetic adjustments by me.
