* Fix results of index-only scans on btree_gist char(N) indexes.Tom Lane2022-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If contrib/btree_gist is used to make a GIST index on a char(N) (bpchar) column, and that column is retrieved via an index-only scan, what came out had all trailing spaces removed. Since that doesn't happen in any other kind of table scan, this is clearly a bug. The cause is that gbt_bpchar_compress() strips trailing spaces (using rtrim1) before a new index entry is made. That was probably a good idea when this code was first written, but since we invented index-only scans, it's not so good. One answer could be to mark this opclass as incapable of index-only scans. But to do so, we'd need an extension module version bump, followed by manual action by DBAs to install the updated version of btree_gist. And it's not really a desirable place to end up, anyway. Instead, let's fix the code by removing the unwanted space-stripping action and adjusting the opclass's comparison logic to ignore trailing spaces as bpchar normally does. This will not hinder cases that work today, since index searches with this logic will act the same whether trailing spaces are stored or not. It will not by itself fix the problem of getting space-stripped results from index-only scans, of course. Users who care about that can REINDEX affected indexes after installing this update, to immediately replace all improperly-truncated index entries. Otherwise, it can be expected that the index's behavior will change incrementally as old entries are replaced by new ones. Per report from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Make contrib modules' installation scripts more secure.Tom Lane2020-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hostile objects located within the installation-time search_path could capture references in an extension's installation or upgrade script. If the extension is being installed with superuser privileges, this opens the door to privilege escalation. While such hazards have existed all along, their urgency increases with the v13 "trusted extensions" feature, because that lets a non-superuser control the installation path for a superuser-privileged script. Therefore, make a number of changes to make such situations more secure: * Tweak the construction of the installation-time search_path to ensure that references to objects in pg_catalog can't be subverted; and explicitly add pg_temp to the end of the path to prevent attacks using temporary objects. * Disable check_function_bodies within installation/upgrade scripts, so that any security gaps in SQL-language or PL-language function bodies cannot create a risk of unwanted installation-time code execution. * Adjust lookup of type input/receive functions and join estimator functions to complain if there are multiple candidate functions. This prevents capture of references to functions whose signature is not the first one checked; and it's arguably more user-friendly anyway. * Modify various contrib upgrade scripts to ensure that catalog modification queries are executed with secure search paths. (These are in-place modifications with no extension version changes, since it is the update process itself that is at issue, not the end result.) Extensions that depend on other extensions cannot be made fully secure by these methods alone; therefore, revert the "trusted" marking that commit eb67623c9 applied to earthdistance and hstore_plperl, pending some better solution to that set of issues. Also add documentation around these issues, to help extension authors write secure installation scripts. Patch by me, following an observation by Andres Freund; thanks to Noah Misch for review.

* Get rid of trailing semicolons in C macro definitions.Tom Lane2020-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Writing a trailing semicolon in a macro is almost never the right thing, because you almost always want to write a semicolon after each macro call instead. (Even if there was some reason to prefer not to, pgindent would probably make a hash of code formatted that way; so within PG the rule should basically be "don't do it".) Thus, if we have a semi inside the macro, the compiler sees "something;;". Much of the time the extra empty statement is harmless, but it could lead to mysterious syntax errors at call sites. In perhaps an overabundance of neatnik-ism, let's run around and get rid of the excess semicolons whereever possible. The only thing worse than a mysterious syntax error is a mysterious syntax error that only happens in the back branches; therefore, backpatch these changes where relevant, which is most of them because most of these mistakes are old. (The lack of reported problems shows that this is largely a hypothetical issue, but still, it could bite us in some future patch.)

* Change floating-point output format for improved performance.Andrew Gierth2019-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, floating-point output was done by rounding to a specific decimal precision; by default, to 6 or 15 decimal digits (losing information) or as requested using extra_float_digits. Drivers that wanted exact float values, and applications like pg_dump that must preserve values exactly, set extra_float_digits=3 (or sometimes 2 for historical reasons, though this isn't enough for float4). Unfortunately, decimal rounded output is slow enough to become a noticable bottleneck when dealing with large result sets or COPY of large tables when many floating-point values are involved. Floating-point output can be done much faster when the output is not rounded to a specific decimal length, but rather is chosen as the shortest decimal representation that is closer to the original float value than to any other value representable in the same precision. The recently published Ryu algorithm by Ulf Adams is both relatively simple and remarkably fast. Accordingly, change float4out/float8out to output shortest decimal representations if extra_float_digits is greater than 0, and make that the new default. Applications that need rounded output can set extra_float_digits back to 0 or below, and take the resulting performance hit. We make one concession to portability for systems with buggy floating-point input: we do not output decimal values that fall exactly halfway between adjacent representable binary values (which would rely on the reader doing round-to-nearest-even correctly). This is known to be a problem at least for VS2013 on Windows. Our version of the Ryu code originates from https://github.com/ulfjack/ryu/ at commit c9c3fb1979, but with the following (significant) modifications: - Output format is changed to use fixed-point notation for small exponents, as printf would, and also to use lowercase 'e', a minimum of 2 exponent digits, and a mandatory sign on the exponent, to keep the formatting as close as possible to previous output. - The output of exact midpoint values is disabled as noted above. - The integer fast-path code is changed somewhat (since we have fixed-point output and the upstream did not). - Our project style has been largely applied to the code with the exception of C99 declaration-after-statement, which has been retained as an exception to our present policy. - Most of upstream's debugging and conditionals are removed, and we use our own configure tests to determine things like uint128 availability. Changing the float output format obviously affects a number of regression tests. This patch uses an explicit setting of extra_float_digits=0 for test output that is not expected to be exactly reproducible (e.g. due to numerical instability or differing algorithms for transcendental functions). Conversions from floats to numeric are unchanged by this patch. These may appear in index expressions and it is not yet clear whether any change should be made, so that can be left for another day. This patch assumes that the only supported floating point format is now IEEE format, and the documentation is updated to reflect that. Code by me, adapting the work of Ulf Adams and other contributors.

* Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.Andres Freund2018-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

* Remove ruleutils.c's special case for BIT [VARYING] literals.Tom Lane2018-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, get_const_expr() insisted on prefixing BIT and VARBIT literals with 'B'. That's not really necessary, because we always append explicit-cast syntax to identify the constant's type. Moreover, it's subtly wrong for VARBIT, because the parser will interpret B'...' as '...'::"bit"; see make_const() which explicitly assigns type BITOID for a T_BitString literal. So what had been a simple VARBIT literal is reconstructed as ('...'::"bit")::varbit, which is not the same thing, at least not before constant folding. This results in odd differences after dump/restore, as complained of by the patch submitter, and it could result in actual failures in partitioning or inheritance DDL operations (see commit 542320c2b, which repaired similar misbehaviors for some other data types). Fixing it is pretty easy: just remove the special case and let the default code path handle these types. We could have kept the special case for BIT only, but there seems little point in that. Like the previous patch, I judge that back-patching this into stable branches wouldn't be a good idea. However, it seems not quite too late for v11, so let's fix it there.

* Provide separate header file for built-in float typesTomas Vondra2018-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some data types under adt/ have separate header files, but most simple ones do not, and their public functions are defined in builtins.h. As the patches improving geometric types will require making additional functions public, this seems like a good opportunity to create a header for floats types. Commit 1acf757255 made _cmp functions public to solve NaN issues locally for GiST indexes. This patch reworks it in favour of a more widely applicable API. The API uses inline functions, as they are easier to use compared to macros, and avoid double-evaluation hazards.

* Fix assorted issues in convert_to_scalar().Tom Lane2018-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If convert_to_scalar is passed a pair of datatypes it can't cope with, its former behavior was just to elog(ERROR). While this is OK so far as the core code is concerned, there's extension code that would like to use scalarltsel/scalargtsel/etc as selectivity estimators for operators that work on non-core datatypes, and this behavior is a show-stopper for that use-case. If we simply allow convert_to_scalar to return FALSE instead of outright failing, then the main logic of scalarltsel/scalargtsel will work fine for any operator that behaves like a scalar inequality comparison. The lack of conversion capability will mean that we can't estimate to better than histogram-bin-width precision, since the code will effectively assume that the comparison constant falls at the middle of its bin. But that's still a lot better than nothing. (Someday we should provide a way for extension code to supply a custom version of convert_to_scalar, but today is not that day.) While poking at this issue, we noted that the existing code for handling type bytea in convert_to_scalar is several bricks shy of a load. It assumes without checking that if the comparison value is type bytea, the bounds values are too; in the worst case this could lead to a crash. It also fails to detoast the input values, so that the comparison result is complete garbage if any input is toasted out-of-line, compressed, or even just short-header. I'm not sure how often such cases actually occur --- the bounds values, at least, are probably safe since they are elements of an array and hence can't be toasted. But that doesn't make this code OK. Back-patch to all supported branches, partly because author requested that, but mostly because of the bytea bugs. The change in API for the exposed routine convert_network_to_scalar() is theoretically a back-patch hazard, but it seems pretty unlikely that any third-party code is calling that function directly.

* Fix IOS planning when only some index columns can return an attribute.Tom Lane2018-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 9.5, it's possible that some but not all columns of an index support returning the indexed value for index-only scans. If the same indexed column appears in index columns that behave both ways, check_index_only() supposed that it'd be OK to do an index-only scan testing that column; but that fails if we have to recheck the indexed condition on one of the columns that doesn't support this. In principle we could make this work by remapping the recheck expressions to pull the value from a column that does support returning the indexed value. But such cases are so weird and rare that, at least for now, it doesn't seem worth the trouble. Instead, just teach check_index_only that a value is returnable only if all the index columns containing it are returnable, rather than any of them. Per report from David Pereiro Lagares. Back-patch to 9.5 where the possibility of this situation appeared. Kyotaro Horiguchi Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1516210494.1798.16.camel@nlpgo.com

Use them in a significant portion of backend code. There's more to touch in both backend and frontend code, but these were the easily identifiable cases. The old overflow checks are noticeable in integer heavy workloads. A secondary benefit is that getting rid of overflow checks that rely on signed integer overflow wrapping around, will allow us to get rid of -fwrapv in the future.

* Make DatumGetFoo/PG_GETARG_FOO/PG_RETURN_FOO macro names more consistent.Tom Lane2017-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By project convention, these names should include "P" when dealing with a pointer type; that is, if the result of a GETARG macro is of type FOO *, it should be called PG_GETARG_FOO_P not just PG_GETARG_FOO. Some newer types such as JSONB and ranges had not followed the convention, and a number of contrib modules hadn't gotten that memo either. Rename the offending macros to improve consistency. In passing, fix a few places that thought PG_DETOAST_DATUM() returns a Datum; it does not, it returns "struct varlena *". Applying DatumGetPointer to that happens not to cause any bad effects today, but it's formally wrong. Also, adjust an ltree macro that was designed without any thought for what pgindent would do with it. This is all cosmetic and shouldn't have any impact on generated code.

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

* Add support for EUI-64 MAC addresses as macaddr8Stephen Frost2017-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds in support for EUI-64 MAC addresses by adding a new data type called 'macaddr8' (using our usual convention of indicating the number of bytes stored). This was largely a copy-and-paste from the macaddr data type, with appropriate adjustments for having 8 bytes instead of 6 and adding support for converting a provided EUI-48 (6 byte format) to the EUI-64 format. Conversion from EUI-48 to EUI-64 inserts FFFE as the 4th and 5th bytes but does not perform the IPv6 modified EUI-64 action of flipping the 7th bit, but we add a function to perform that specific action for the user as it may be commonly done by users who wish to calculate their IPv6 address based on their network prefix and 48-bit MAC address.

* Consistently declare timestamp variables as TimestampTz.Tom Lane2017-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Twiddle the replication-related code so that its timestamp variables are declared TimestampTz, rather than the uninformative "int64" that was previously used for meant-to-be-always-integer timestamps. This resolves the int64-vs-TimestampTz declaration inconsistencies introduced by commit 7c030783a, though in the opposite direction to what was originally suggested. This required including datatype/timestamp.h in a couple more places than before. I decided it would be a good idea to slim down that header by not having it pull in <float.h> etc, as those headers are no longer at all relevant to its purpose. Unsurprisingly, a small number of .c files turn out to have been depending on those inclusions, so add them back in the .c files as needed.

This avoids having to manually maintain these prototypes across a random variety of header files.

The tests seem fast enough that we can just apply them during the normal regression tests. contrib/isn fails the checks for lack of complete sets of cross-type operators.

* Handle contrib's GIN/GIST support function signature changes honestly.Tom Lane2016-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commits 9ff60273e35cad6e and dbe2328959e12701 I (tgl) fixed the signatures of a bunch of contrib's GIN and GIST support functions so that they would pass validation by the recently-added amvalidate functions. The backend does not actually consult or check those signatures otherwise, so I figured this was basically cosmetic and did not require an extension version bump. However, Alexander Korotkov pointed out that that would leave us in a pretty messy situation if we ever wanted to redefine those functions later, because there wouldn't be a unique way to name them. Since we're going to be bumping these extensions' versions anyway for parallel-query cleanups, let's take care of this now. Andreas Karlsson, adjusted for more search-path-safety by me
* Properly initialize SortSupport for ORDER BY rechecks in nodeIndexscan.c.Tom Lane2016-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix still another bug in commit 35fcb1b3d: it failed to fully initialize the SortSupport states it introduced to allow the executor to re-check ORDER BY expressions containing distance operators. That led to a null pointer dereference if the sortsupport code tried to use ssup_cxt. The problem only manifests in narrow cases, explaining the lack of previous field reports. It requires a GiST-indexable distance operator that lacks SortSupport and is on a pass-by-ref data type, which among core+contrib seems to be only btree_gist's interval opclass; and it requires the scan to be done as an IndexScan not an IndexOnlyScan, which explains how btree_gist's regression test didn't catch it.

* Fix assorted inconsistencies in GiST opclass support function declarations.Tom Lane2016-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The conventions specified by the GiST SGML documentation were widely ignored. For example, the strategy-number argument for "consistent" and "distance" functions is specified to be a smallint, but most of the built-in support functions declared it as an integer, and for that matter the core code passed it using Int32GetDatum not Int16GetDatum. None of that makes any real difference at runtime, but it's quite confusing for newcomers to the code, and it makes it very hard to write an amvalidate() function that checks support function signatures. So let's try to instill some consistency here. Another similar issue is that the "query" argument is not of a single well-defined type, but could have different types depending on the strategy (corresponding to search operators with different righthand-side argument types). Some of the functions threw up their hands and declared the query argument as being of "internal" type, which surely isn't right ("any" would have been more appropriate); but the majority position seemed to be to declare it as being of the indexed data type, corresponding to a search operator with both input types the same. So I've specified a convention that that's what to do always. Also, the result of the "union" support function actually must be of the index's storage type, but the documentation suggested declaring it to return "internal", and some of the functions followed that. Standardize on telling the truth, instead. Similarly, standardize on declaring the "same" function's inputs as being of the storage type, not "internal". Also, somebody had forgotten to add the "recheck" argument to both the documentation of the "distance" support function and all of their SQL declarations, even though the C code was happily using that argument. Clean that up too. Fix up some other omissions in the docs too, such as documenting that union's second input argument is vestigial. So far as the errors in core function declarations go, we can just fix pg_proc.h and bump catversion. Adjusting the erroneous declarations in contrib modules is more debatable: in principle any change in those scripts should involve an extension version bump, which is a pain. However, since these changes are purely cosmetic and make no functional difference, I think we can get away without doing that.

* Define integer limits independently from the system definitions.Andres Freund2015-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 83ff1618 we defined integer limits iff they're not provided by the system. That turns out not to be the greatest idea because there's different ways some datatypes can be represented. E.g. on OSX PG's 64bit datatype will be a 'long int', but OSX unconditionally uses 'long long'. That disparity then can lead to warnings, e.g. around printf formats. One way to fix that would be to back int64 using stdint.h's int64_t. While a good idea it's not that easy to implement. We would e.g. need to include stdint.h in our external headers, which we don't today. Also computing the correct int64 printf formats in that case is nontrivial. Instead simply prefix the integer limits with PG_ and define them unconditionally. I've adjusted all the references to them in code, but not the ones in comments; the latter seems unnecessary to me.

* Be more careful about printing constants in ruleutils.c.Tom Lane2015-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous coding in get_const_expr() tried to avoid quoting integer, float, and numeric literals if at all possible. While that looks nice, it means that dumped expressions might re-parse to something that's semantically equivalent but not the exact same parsetree; for example a FLOAT8 constant would re-parse as a NUMERIC constant with a cast to FLOAT8. Though the result would be the same after constant-folding, this is problematic in certain contexts. In particular, Jeff Davis pointed out that this could cause unexpected failures in ALTER INHERIT operations because of child tables having not-exactly-equivalent CHECK expressions. Therefore, favor correctness over legibility and dump such constants in quotes except in the limited cases where they'll be interpreted as the same type even without any casting. This results in assorted small changes in the regression test outputs, and will affect display of user-defined views and rules similarly. The odds of that causing problems in the field seem non-negligible; given the lack of previous complaints, it seems best not to change this in the back branches.

C99's stdint.h does, but we can't rely on it. Several parts of the code defined limits locally, so instead centralize the definitions to c.h. This patch also changes the more obvious usages of literal limit values; there's more places that could be changed, but it's less clear whether it's beneficial to change those.

* Remove dead NULL-pointer checks in GiST code.Heikki Linnakangas2015-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gist_poly_compress() and gist_circle_compress() checked for a NULL-pointer key argument, but that was dead code; the gist code never passes a NULL-pointer to the "compress" method. This commit also removes a documentation note added in commit a0a3883, about doing NULL-pointer checks in the "compress" method. It was added based on the fact that some implementations were doing NULL-pointer checks, but those checks were unnecessary in the first place. The NULL-pointer check in gbt_var_same() function was also unnecessary. The arguments to the "same" method come from the "compress", "union", or "picksplit" methods, but none of them return a NULL pointer. None of this is to be confused with SQL NULL values. Those are dealt with by the gist machinery, and are never passed to the GiST opclass methods. Michael Paquier
* Support timezone abbreviations that sometimes change.Tom Lane2014-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now, PG has assumed that any given timezone abbreviation (such as "EDT") represents a constant GMT offset in the usage of any particular region; we had a way to configure what that offset was, but not for it to be changeable over time. But, as with most things horological, this view of the world is too simplistic: there are numerous regions that have at one time or another switched to a different GMT offset but kept using the same timezone abbreviation. Almost the entire Russian Federation did that a few years ago, and later this month they're going to do it again. And there are similar examples all over the world. To cope with this, invent the notion of a "dynamic timezone abbreviation", which is one that is referenced to a particular underlying timezone (as defined in the IANA timezone database) and means whatever it currently means in that zone. For zones that use or have used daylight-savings time, the standard and DST abbreviations continue to have the property that you can specify standard or DST time and get that time offset whether or not DST was theoretically in effect at the time. However, the abbreviations mean what they meant at the time in question (or most recently before that time) rather than being absolutely fixed. The standard abbreviation-list files have been changed to use this behavior for abbreviations that have actually varied in meaning since 1970. The old simple-numeric definitions are kept for abbreviations that have not changed, since they are a bit faster to resolve. While this is clearly a new feature, it seems necessary to back-patch it into all active branches, because otherwise use of Russian zone abbreviations is going to become even more problematic than it already was. This change supersedes the changes in commit 513d06ded et al to modify the fixed meanings of the Russian abbreviations; since we've not shipped that yet, this will avoid an undesirably incompatible (not to mention incorrect) change in behavior for timestamps between 2011 and 2014. This patch makes some cosmetic changes in ecpglib to keep its usage of datetime lookup tables as similar as possible to the backend code, but doesn't do anything about the increasingly obsolete set of timezone abbreviation definitions that are hard-wired into ecpglib. Whatever we do about that will likely not be appropriate material for back-patching. Also, a potential free() of a garbage pointer after an out-of-memory failure in ecpglib has been fixed. This patch also fixes pre-existing bugs in DetermineTimeZoneOffset() that caused it to produce unexpected results near a timezone transition, if both the "before" and "after" states are marked as standard time. We'd only ever thought about or tested transitions between standard and DST time, but that's not what's happening when a zone simply redefines their base GMT offset. In passing, update the SGML documentation to refer to the Olson/zoneinfo/ zic timezone database as the "IANA" database, since it's now being maintained under the auspices of IANA.
