The attached patch re-enables a bytea right hand argument (as compared to a text right hand argument), and enables index usage, for bytea LIKE Joe Conway
2002-09-02I checked all the previous string handling errors and most of them wereBruce Momjian
already fixed by You. However there were a few left and attached patch should fix the rest of them. I used StringInfo only in 2 places and both of them are inside debug ifdefs. Only performance penalty will come from using strlen() like all the other code does. I also modified some of the already patched parts by changing snprintf(buf, 2 * BUFSIZE, ... style lines to snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), ... where buf is an array. Jukka Holappa
2002-09-02Add GUC variable to print original query to the server logs when thereBruce Momjian
is an error, warning, etc. Gavin Sherry
2002-09-02Remove sys/types.h in files that include postgres.h, and hence c.h,Bruce Momjian
because c.h has sys/types.h.
2002-09-02Code review for HeapTupleHeader changes. Add version number to page headersTom Lane
(overlaying low byte of page size) and add HEAP_HASOID bit to t_infomask, per earlier discussion. Simplify scheme for overlaying fields in tuple header (no need for cmax to live in more than one place). Don't try to clear infomask status bits in tqual.c --- not safe to do it there. Don't try to force output table of a SELECT INTO to have OIDs, either. Get rid of unnecessarily complex three-state scheme for TupleDesc.tdhasoids, which has already caused one recent failure. Improve documentation.
2002-09-01Add log_duration to GUC/postgresql.conf.Bruce Momjian
Rename debug_print_query to log_statement and rename show_query_stats to show_statement_stats.
2002-09-01Mark the float8 -> int8 cast as implicit. This resolves the problemTom Lane
pointed out by Barry Lind: UPDATE bigintcol = 10000000000 fails because the constant is initially taken as float8. We really need a better way, but it's not gonna happen for 7.3. Also, remove int4reltime() function, which is redundant with the existing binary-compatibility coercion path from int4 to reltime, and probably has been unreachable code for a long while.
2002-08-31Code review for domain-constraints patch. Use a new ConstraintTest nodeTom Lane
type for runtime constraint checks, instead of misusing the parse-time Constraint node for the purpose. Fix some damage introduced into type coercion logic; in particular ensure that a coerced expression tree will read out the correct result type when inspected (patch had broken some RelabelType cases). Enforce domain NOT NULL constraints against columns that are omitted from an INSERT.
2002-08-31Code review for pg_locks feature. Make shmemoffset of PROCLOCK structsTom Lane
available (else there's no way to interpret the list links). Change pg_locks view to show transaction ID locks separately from ordinary relation locks. Avoid showing N duplicate rows when the same lock is held multiple times (seems unlikely that users care about exact hold count). Improve documentation.
2002-08-30Add expected tuple descriptor to ReturnSetInfo information for tableTom Lane
functions, per suggestion from John Gray and Joe Conway. Also, fix plpgsql RETURN NEXT to verify that returned values match the expected tupdesc.
2002-08-30AUTOCOMMIT mode is now an available backend GUC variable; setting itTom Lane
to false provides more SQL-spec-compliant behavior than we had before. I am not sure that setting it false is actually a good idea yet; there is a lot of client-side code that will probably be broken by turning autocommit off. But it's a start. Loosely based on a patch by David Van Wie.
2002-08-30Fix for breakage of C-coded SRFs, from Joe Conway.Tom Lane
2002-08-30Complete TODO item:Bruce Momjian
* Remove wal_files postgresql.conf option because WAL files are now recycled
2002-08-30PL/pgSQL functions can return sets. Neil Conway's patch, modified soTom Lane
that the functionality is available to anyone via ReturnSetInfo, rather than hard-wiring it to PL/pgSQL.

I've attached a patch which should fix these problems. Neil Conway
2002-08-29This patch reserves the last superuser_reserved_connections slots forBruce Momjian
connections by the superuser only. This patch replaces the last patch I sent a couple of days ago. It closes a connection that has not been authorised by a superuser if it would leave less than the GUC variable ReservedBackends (superuser_reserved_connections in postgres.conf) backend process slots free in the SISeg. This differs to the first patch which only reserved the last ReservedBackends slots in the procState array. This has made the free slot test more expensive due to the use of a lock. After thinking about a comment on the first patch I've also made it a fatal error if the number of reserved slots is not less than the maximum number of connections. Nigel J. Andrews
2002-08-29Adjust nodeFunctionscan.c to reset transient memory context between callsTom Lane
to the table function, thus preventing memory leakage accumulation across calls. This means that SRFs need to be careful to distinguish permanent and local storage; adjust code and documentation accordingly. Patch by Joe Conway, very minor tweaks by Tom Lane.
2002-08-29Remove #ifdef MULTIBYTE per hackers list discussion.Tatsuo Ishii
2002-08-29Fix ruleutils to dump column definition lists for anonymous record typesTom Lane
defined in the FROM clause. From Joe Conway, with some tweaks.
2002-08-29Code review for standalone composite types, query-specified compositeTom Lane
types, SRFs. Not happy with memory management yet, but I'll commit these other changes.
2002-08-28backend where a statically sized buffer is written to. Most of theseBruce Momjian
should be pretty safe in practice, but it's probably better to be safe than sorry. I was actually looking for cases where NAMEDATALEN is assumed to be 32, but only found one. That's fixed too, as well as a few bits of code cleanup. Neil Conway
2002-08-27Bring comments back in sync with code.Tom Lane
2002-08-27Throw error on pg_atoi(''), regression adjustments.Bruce Momjian
2002-08-27Add fsm sizes.Bruce Momjian
2002-08-27This patch updates the lock listing code to use Joe Conway's newBruce Momjian
anonymous return type SRF code. It gets rid of the superflous 'pg_locks_result' that Bruce/Tom had commented on. Otherwise, no changes in functionality. Neil Conway
2002-08-27This patches replaces a few more usages of strcpy() and sprintf() whenBruce Momjian
copying into a fixed-size buffer (in this case, a buffer of NAMEDATALEN bytes). AFAICT nothing to worry about here, but worth fixing anyway... Neil Conway

2002-08-26Modify array operations to include array's element type OID in theTom Lane
array header, and to compute sizing and alignment of array elements the same way normal tuple access operations do --- viz, using the tupmacs.h macros att_addlength and att_align. This makes the world safe for arrays of cstrings or intervals, and should make it much easier to write array-type-polymorphic functions; as examples see the cleanups of array_out and contrib/array_iterator. By Joe Conway and Tom Lane.
2002-08-24The cstring datatype can now be copied, passed around, etc. The typlenTom Lane
value '-2' is used to indicate a variable-width type whose width is computed as strlen(datum)+1. Everything that looks at typlen is updated except for array support, which Joe Conway is working on; at the moment it wouldn't work to try to create an array of cstring.
2002-08-22Commit updated repeat() patch, from Neil ConwayBruce Momjian
2002-08-22This patch should fix the problem. Doesn't include my previous patchBruce Momjian
for repeat(). Again, somewhat off-the-cuff, so I might have missed something... test=# select lpad('xxxxx',1431655765,'yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy'); ERROR: Requested length too large test=# select rpad('xxxxx',1431655765,'yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy'); ERROR: Requested length too large (That's on a Unicode DB, haven't tested other encodings but AFAICT this fix should still work.) Neil Conway
2002-08-22repeat() fix:Bruce Momjian
> Neil Conway <neilc@samurai.com> writes: > > + /* Check for integer overflow */ > > + if (tlen / slen != count) > > + elog(ERROR, "Requested buffer is too large."); > > What about slen == 0? Good point -- that wouldn't cause incorrect results or a security problem, but it would reject input that we should really accept. Revised patch is attached. Neil Conway
2002-08-22As suggested by Tom, this patch restricts the right-hand argument ofBruce Momjian
bytealike to TEXT. This leaves like_escape_bytea() without anything to do, but I left it in place in anticipation of the eventual bytea pattern selectivity functions. If there is agreement that this would be the best long term solution, I'll take it as a TODO for 7.4. Joe Conway

2002-08-22Remove erroneous character from Makefile due to editor error.Bruce Momjian
2002-08-22Add a bunch of pseudo-types to replace the behavior formerly associatedTom Lane
with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion. I still want to do some more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...
2002-08-21Changes made so new conversion Makefiles will build out of the source tree.Bruce Momjian
2002-08-20Increase buffer size in cash_words(). Pure paranoia; I don't think theTom Lane
code is broken, but any small change in the output format might overrun the buffer with the old size.

It pfree() wrong pointer.
2002-08-18Make pg_dump output more portable and more pleasing to look at.Peter Eisentraut
The -n and -N options were removed. Quoting is now smart enough to supply quotes if and only if necessary. Numerical types are now printed without quotes, except in cases of special values such as NaN. Boolean values printed as true and false. Most string literals now do not escape whitespace characters (newlines, etc.) for portability. SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION argument is a string literal, to follow SQL. Made commands output by pg_dump use consistent spacing and indentation.
