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.

Previously, we failed to recognize Unicode characters above U+7FF as
being members of locale-dependent character classes such as [[:alpha:]].
(Actually, the same problem occurs for large pg_wchar values in any
multibyte encoding, but UTF8 is the only case people have actually
complained about.) It's impractical to get Spencer's original code to
handle character classes or ranges containing many thousands of characters,
because it insists on considering each member character individually at
regex compile time, whether or not the character will ever be of interest
at run time. To fix, choose a cutoff point MAX_SIMPLE_CHR below which
we process characters individually as before, and deal with entire ranges
or classes as single entities above that. We can actually make things
cheaper than before for chars below the cutoff, because the color map can
now be a simple linear array for those chars, rather than the multilevel
tree structure Spencer designed. It's more expensive than before for
chars above the cutoff, because we must do a binary search in a list of
high chars and char ranges used in the regex pattern, plus call iswalpha()
and friends for each locale-dependent character class used in the pattern.
However, multibyte encodings are normally designed to give smaller codes
to popular characters, so that we can expect that the slow path will be
taken relatively infrequently. In any case, the speed penalty appears
minor except when we have to apply iswalpha() etc. to high character codes
at runtime --- and the previous coding gave wrong answers for those cases,
so whether it was faster is moot.

A lookbehind constraint is like a lookahead constraint in that it consumes
no text; but it checks for existence (or nonexistence) of a match *ending*
at the current point in the string, rather than one *starting* at the
current point. This is a long-requested feature since it exists in many
other regex libraries, but Henry Spencer had never got around to
implementing it in the code we use.
Just making it work is actually pretty trivial; but naive copying of the
logic for lookahead constraints leads to code that often spends O(N^2) time
to scan an N-character string, because we have to run the match engine
from string start to the current probe point each time the constraint is
checked. In typical use-cases a lookbehind constraint will be written at
the start of the regex and hence will need to be checked at every character
--- so O(N^2) work overall. To fix that, I introduced a third copy of the
core DFA matching loop, paralleling the existing longest() and shortest()
loops. This version, matchuntil(), can suspend and resume matching given
a couple of pointers' worth of storage space. So we need only run it
across the string once, stopping at each interesting probe point and then
resuming to advance to the next one.
I also put in an optimization that simplifies one-character lookahead and
lookbehind constraints, such as "(?=x)" or "(?<!\w)", into AHEAD and BEHIND
constraints, which already existed in the engine. This avoids the overhead
of the LACON machinery entirely for these rather common cases.
The net result is that lookbehind constraints run a factor of three or so
slower than Perl's for multi-character constraints, but faster than Perl's
for one-character constraints ... and they work fine for variable-length
constraints, which Perl gives up on entirely. So that's not bad from a
competitive perspective, and there's room for further optimization if
anyone cares. (In reality, raw scan rate across a large input string is
probably not that big a deal for Postgres usage anyway; so I'm happy if
it's linear.)

This code previously counted the number of NFA states it created, and
complained if a limit was exceeded, so as to prevent bizarre regex patterns
from consuming unreasonable time or memory. That's fine as far as it went,
but the code paid no attention to how many arcs linked those states. Since
regexes can be contrived that have O(N) states but will need O(N^2) arcs
after fixempties() processing, it was still possible to blow out memory,
and take a long time doing it too. To fix, modify the bookkeeping to count
space used by both states and arcs.
I did not bother with including the "color map" in the accounting; it
can only grow to a few megabytes, which is not a lot in comparison to
what we're allowing for states+arcs (about 150MB on 64-bit machines
or half that on 32-bit machines).
Looking at some of the larger real-world regexes captured in the Tcl
regression test suite suggests that the most that is likely to be needed
for regexes found in the wild is under 10MB, so I believe that the current
limit has enough headroom to make it okay to keep it as a hard-wired limit.
In connection with this, redefine REG_ETOOBIG as meaning "regular
expression is too complex"; the previous wording of "nfa has too many
states" was already somewhat inapropos because of the error code's use
for stack depth overrun, and it was not very user-friendly either.

This includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was
applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.

The regex code didn't have any provision for query cancel; which is
unsurprising given its non-Postgres origin, but still problematic since
some operations can take a long time. Introduce a callback function to
check for a pending query cancel or session termination request, and
call it in a couple of strategic spots where we can make the regex code
exit with an error indicator.
If we ever actually split out the regex code as a standalone library,
some additional work will be needed to let the cancel callback function
be specified externally to the library. But that's straightforward
(certainly so by comparison to putting the locale-dependent character
classification logic on a similar arms-length basis), and there seems
no need to do it right now.
A bigger issue is that there may be more places than these two where
we need to check for cancels. We can always add more checks later,
now that the infrastructure is in place.
Since there are known examples of not-terribly-long regexes that can
lock up a backend for a long time, back-patch to all supported branches.
I have hopes of fixing the known performance problems later, but adding
query cancel ability seems like a good idea even if they were all fixed.

To generate btree-indexable conditions from regex WHERE conditions (such as
WHERE indexed_col ~ '^foo'), we need to be able to identify any fixed
prefix that a regex might have; that is, find any string that must be a
prefix of all strings satisfying the regex. We used to do that with
entirely ad-hoc code that looked at the source text of the regex. It
didn't know very much about regex syntax, which mostly meant that it would
fail to identify some optimizable cases; but Viktor Rosenfeld reported that
it would produce actively wrong answers for quantified parenthesized
subexpressions, such as '^(foo)?bar'. Rather than trying to extend the
ad-hoc code to cover this, let's get rid of it altogether in favor of
identifying prefixes by examining the compiled form of a regex.
To do this, I've added a new entry point "pg_regprefix" to the regex library;
hopefully it is defined in a sufficiently general fashion that it can remain
in the library when/if that code gets split out as a standalone project.
Since this bug has been there for a very long time, this fix needs to get
back-patched. However it depends on some other recent commits (particularly
the addition of wchar-to-database-encoding conversion), so I'll commit this
separately and then go to work on back-porting the necessary fixes.

This involves getting the character classification and case-folding
functions in the regex library to use the collations infrastructure.
Most of this work had been done already in connection with the upper/lower
and LIKE logic, so it was a simple matter of transposition.
While at it, split out these functions into a separate source file
regc_pg_locale.c, so that they can be correctly labeled with the Postgres
project's license rather than the Scriptics license. These functions are
100% Postgres-written code whereas what remains in regc_locale.c is still
mostly not ours, so lumping them both under the same copyright notice was
getting more and more misleading.

style by default. Per discussion, there seems to be hardly anything that
really relies on being able to change the regex flavor, so the ability to
select it via embedded options ought to be enough for any stragglers.
Also, if we didn't remove the GUC, we'd really be morally obligated to
mark the regex functions non-immutable, which'd possibly create performance
issues.

are shared with Tcl, since it's their code to begin with, and the patches
have been copied from Tcl 8.5.0. Problems:
CVE-2007-4769: Inadequate check on the range of backref numbers allows
crash due to out-of-bounds read.
CVE-2007-4772: Infinite loop in regex optimizer for pattern '($|^)*'.
CVE-2007-6067: Very slow optimizer cleanup for regex with a large NFA
representation, as well as crash if we encounter an out-of-memory condition
during NFA construction.
Part of the response to CVE-2007-6067 is to put a limit on the number of
states in the NFA representation of a regex. This seems needed even though
the within-the-code problems have been corrected, since otherwise the code
could try to use very large amounts of memory for a suitably-crafted regex,
leading to potential DOS by driving the system into swap, activating a kernel
OOM killer, etc.
Although there are certainly plenty of ways to drive the system into effective
DOS with poorly-written SQL queries, these problems seem worth treating as
security issues because many applications might accept regex search patterns
from untrustworthy sources.
Thanks to Will Drewry of Google for reporting these problems. Patches by Will
Drewry and Tom Lane.

The specification of this function is as follows.
regexp_replace(source text, pattern text, replacement text, [flags
text])
returns text
Replace string that matches to regular expression in source text to
replacement text.
- pattern is regular expression pattern.
- replacement is replace string that can use '\1'-'\9', and '\&'.
'\1'-'\9': back reference to the n'th subexpression.
'\&' : entire matched string.
- flags can use the following values:
g: global (replace all)
i: ignore case
When the flags is not specified, case sensitive, replace the first
instance only.

(extracted from Tcl 8.4.1 release, as Henry still hasn't got round to
making it a separate library). This solves a performance problem for
multibyte, as well as upgrading our regexp support to match recent Tcl
and nearly match recent Perl.

are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively. By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory. There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.

From: t-ishii@sra.co.jp
Attached are patches to enhance the multi-byte support. (patches are
against 7/18 snapshot)
* determine encoding at initdb/createdb rather than compile time
Now initdb/createdb has an option to specify the encoding. Also, I
modified the syntax of CREATE DATABASE to accept encoding option. See
README.mb for more details.
For this purpose I have added new column "encoding" to pg_database.
Also pg_attribute and pg_class are changed to catch up the
modification to pg_database. Actually I haved added pg_database_mb.h,
pg_attribute_mb.h and pg_class_mb.h. These are used only when MB is
enabled. The reason having separate files is I couldn't find a way to
use ifdef or whatever in those files. I have to admit it looks
ugly. No way.
* support for PGCLIENTENCODING when issuing COPY command
commands/copy.c modified.
* support for SQL92 syntax "SET NAMES"
See gram.y.
* support for LATIN2-5
* add UNICODE regression test case
* new test suite for MB
New directory test/mb added.
* clean up source files
Basic idea is to have MB's own subdirectory for easier maintenance.
These are include/mb and backend/utils/mb.
|
|
|
|
|

\d? results in one query. Add \d? field search feature. Rename MB
to MULTIBYTE.

Included are patches intended for allowing PostgreSQL to handle
multi-byte charachter sets such as EUC(Extende Unix Code), Unicode and
Mule internal code. With the MB patch you can use multi-byte character
sets in regexp and LIKE. The encoding system chosen is determined at
the compile time.
To enable the MB extension, you need to define a variable "MB" in
Makefile.global or in Makefile.custom. For further information please
take a look at README.mb under doc directory.
(Note that unlike "jp patch" I do not use modified GNU regexp any
more. I changed Henry Spencer's regexp coming with PostgreSQL.)
