Tom Lane b4570d33aa Avoid holding a directory FD open across assorted SRF calls.
This extends the fixes made in commit 085b6b667 to other SRFs with the
same bug, namely pg_logdir_ls(), pgrowlocks(), pg_timezone_names(),
pg_ls_dir(), and pg_tablespace_databases().

Also adjust various comments and documentation to warn against
expecting to clean up resources during a ValuePerCall SRF's final
call.

Back-patch to all supported branches, since these functions were
all born broken.

Andrew Gierth 1fd687a035 Optimizations for integer to decimal output.
Using a lookup table of digit pairs reduces the number of divisions

Michael Paquier 64579be64a Fix some incorrect parsing of time with time zone strings
When parsing a timetz string with a dynamic timezone abbreviation or a
timezone not specified, it was possible to generate incorrect timestamps
based on a date which uses some non-initialized variables if the input
string did not specify fully a date to parse.  This is already checked
when a full timezone spec is included in the input string, but the two
other cases mentioned above missed the same checks.

This gets fixed by generating an error as this input is invalid, or in
short when a date is not fully specified.

Valgrind was complaining about this problem.

Tom Lane 8ab66081ca Tweak our special-case logic for the IANA "Factory" timezone.
pg_timezone_names() tries to avoid showing the "Factory" zone in
the view, mainly because that has traditionally had a very long
"abbreviation" such as "Local time zone must be set--see zic manual page",
so that showing it messes up psql's formatting of the whole view.
Since tzdb version 2016g, IANA instead uses the abbreviation "-00",
which is sane enough that there's no reason to discriminate against it.

On the other hand, it emerges that FreeBSD and possibly other packagers
are so wedded to backwards compatibility that they hack the IANA data
to keep the old spelling --- and not just that old spelling, but even
older spellings that IANA used back in the stone age.  This caused the
filter logic to fail to suppress "Factory" at all on such platforms,
though the formatting problem is definitely real in that case.

To solve both problems, get rid of the hard-wired assumption about
exactly what Factory's abbreviation is, and instead reject abbreviations
exceeding 31 characters.  This will allow Factory to appear in the view
if and only if it's using the modern abbreviation.

In passing, simplify the code we add to zic.c to support "zic -P"
to remove its now-obsolete hacks to not print the Factory zone's
abbreviation.  Unlike pg_timezone_names(), there's no reason for
that code to support old/nonstandard timezone data.

Since we generally prefer to keep timezone-related behavior the
same in all branches, and since this is arguably a bug fix,
back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane 1fb57af920 Create the infrastructure for planner support functions.
Rename/repurpose pg_proc.protransform as "prosupport".  The idea is
still that it names an internal function that provides knowledge to
the planner about the behavior of the function it's attached to;
but redesign the API specification so that it's not limited to doing
just one thing, but can support an extensible set of requests.

The original purpose of simplifying a function call is handled by
the first request type to be invented, SupportRequestSimplify.
Adjust all the existing transform functions to handle this API,
and rename them fron "xxx_transform" to "xxx_support" to reflect
the potential generalization of what they do.  (Since we never
previously provided any way for extensions to add transform functions,
this change doesn't create an API break for them.)

Also add DDL and pg_dump support for attaching a support function to a
user-defined function.  Unfortunately, DDL access has to be restricted
to superusers, at least for now; but seeing that support functions
will pretty much have to be written in C, that limitation is just
theoretical.  (This support is untested in this patch, but a follow-on
patch will add cases that exercise it.)

Andres Freund 578b229718 Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.
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.

Alvaro Herrera f2c587067a Rethink how to get float.h in old Windows API for isnan/isinf
We include <float.h> in every place that needs isnan(), because MSVC
used to require it.  However, since MSVC 2013 that's no longer necessary
(cf. commit cec8394b5c), so we can retire the inclusion to a
version-specific stanza in win32_port.h, where it doesn't need to
pollute random .c files.  The header is of course still needed in a few
places for other reasons.

I (Álvaro) removed float.h from a few more files than in Emre's original

Tom Lane 234bb985c5 Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2018e.
DST law changes in North Korea.  Redefinition of "daylight savings" in
Ireland, as well as for some past years in Namibia and Czechoslovakia.
Additional historical corrections for Czechoslovakia.

With this change, the IANA database models Irish timekeeping as following
"standard time" in summer, and "daylight savings" in winter, so that the
daylight savings offset is one hour behind standard time not one hour
ahead.  This does not change their UTC offset (+1:00 in summer, 0:00 in
winter) nor their timezone abbreviations (IST in summer, GMT in winter),
though now "IST" is more correctly read as "Irish Standard Time" not "Irish
Summer Time".  However, the "is_dst" column in the pg_timezone_names view
will now be true in winter and false in summer for the Europe/Dublin zone.

Similar changes were made for Namibia between 1994 and 2017, and for
Czechoslovakia between 1946 and 1947.

So far as I can find, no Postgres internal logic cares about which way
tm_isdst is reported; in particular, since commit b2cbced9e we do not
rely on it to decide how to interpret ambiguous timestamps during DST
transitions.  So I don't think this change will affect any Postgres
behavior other than the timezone-view outputs.

Tom Lane 41c912cad1 Clean up warnings from -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
Recent gcc can warn about switch-case fall throughs that are not
explicitly labeled as intentional.  This seems like a good thing,
so clean up the warnings exposed thereby by labeling all such
cases with comments that gcc will recognize.

In files that already had one or more suitable comments, I generally
matched the existing style of those.  Otherwise I went with
/* FALLTHROUGH */, which is one of the spellings approved at the
more-restrictive-than-default level -Wimplicit-fallthrough=4.
(At the default level you can also spell it /* FALL ?THRU */,
and it's not picky about case.  What you can't do is include
additional text in the same comment, so some existing comments
containing versions of this aren't good enough.)

Testing with gcc 8.0.1 (Fedora 28's current version), I found that
I also had to put explicit "break"s after elog(ERROR) or ereport(ERROR);
apparently, for this purpose gcc doesn't recognize that those don't
return.  That seems like possibly a gcc bug, but it's fine because
in most places we did that anyway; so this amounts to a visit from the
style police.

Tom Lane 382ceffdf7 Phase 3 of pgindent updates.
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.

Tom Lane c7b8998ebb Phase 2 of pgindent updates.
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 e3860ffa4d 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.

Tom Lane e3860ffa4d Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.
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.

Tom Lane 39b691f251 Don't require dynamic timezone abbreviations to match underlying time zone.
Previously, we threw an error if a dynamic timezone abbreviation did not
match any abbreviation recorded in the referenced IANA time zone entry.
That seemed like a good consistency check at the time, but it turns out
that a number of the abbreviations in the IANA database are things that
Olson and crew made up out of whole cloth.  Their current policy is to
remove such names in favor of using simple numeric offsets.  Perhaps
unsurprisingly, a lot of these made-up abbreviations have varied in meaning
over time, which meant that our commit b2cbced9e and later changes made
them into dynamic abbreviations.  So with newer IANA database versions
that don't mention these abbreviations at all, we fail, as reported in bug
#14307 from Neil Anderson.  It's worse than just a few unused-in-the-wild
abbreviations not working, because the pg_timezone_abbrevs view stops
working altogether (since its underlying function tries to compute the
whole view result in one call).

We considered deleting these abbreviations from our abbreviations list, but
the problem with that is that we can't stay ahead of possible future IANA
changes.  Instead, let's leave the abbreviations list alone, and treat any
"orphaned" dynamic abbreviation as just meaning the referenced time zone.
It will behave a bit differently than it used to, in that you can't any
longer override the zone's standard vs. daylight rule by using the "wrong"
abbreviation of a pair, but that's better than failing entirely.  (Also,
this solution can be interpreted as adding a small new feature, which is
that any abbreviation a user wants can be defined as referencing a time
zone name.)

Back-patch to all supported branches, since this problem affects all

Tom Lane 5db5146431 Fix j2day() to behave sanely for negative Julian dates.
Somebody had apparently once figured that casting to unsigned int would
produce the right output for negative inputs, but that would only be
true if 2^32 were a multiple of 7, which of course it ain't.  We need
to use a signed division and then correct the sign of the remainder.

AFAICT, the only case where this would arise currently is when doing
ISO-week calculations for dates in 4714BC, where we'd compute a
negative Julian date representing 4714-01-04BC and then do some
arithmetic with it.  Since we don't even really document support for
such dates, this is not of much consequence.  But we may as well
get it right.

Tom Lane a70e13a39e Be more careful about out-of-range dates and timestamps.
Tighten the semantics of boundary-case timestamptz so that we allow
timestamps >= '4714-11-24 00:00+00 BC' and < 'ENDYEAR-01-01 00:00+00 AD'
exactly, no more and no less, but it is allowed to enter timestamps
within that range using non-GMT timezone offsets (which could make the
nominal date 4714-11-23 BC or ENDYEAR-01-01 AD).  This eliminates
dump/reload failure conditions for timestamps near the endpoints.
To do this, separate checking of the inputs for date2j() from the
final range check, and allow the Julian date code to handle a range
slightly wider than the nominal range of the datatypes.

Also add a bunch of checks to detect out-of-range dates and timestamps
that formerly could be returned by operations such as date-plus-integer.
All C-level functions that return date, timestamp, or timestamptz should
now be proof against returning a value that doesn't pass IS_VALID_DATE()
or IS_VALID_TIMESTAMP().

Tom Lane aa2387e2fd Improve speed of timestamp/time/date output functions.
It seems that sprintf(), at least in glibc's version, is unreasonably slow
compared to hand-rolled code for printing integers.  Replacing most uses of
sprintf() in the datetime.c output functions with special-purpose code
turns out to give more than a 2X speedup in COPY of a table with a single
timestamp column; which is pretty impressive considering all the other
logic in that code path.

RESERV. RESERV is meant for tokens like "now" and having them in that
category throws errors like these when used as an input date:

Tom Lane 586dd5d6a5 Replace a bunch more uses of strncpy() with safer coding.
strncpy() has a well-deserved reputation for being unsafe, so make an
effort to get rid of nearly all occurrences in HEAD.

A large fraction of the remaining uses were passing length less than or
equal to the known strlen() of the source, in which case no null-padding
can occur and the behavior is equivalent to memcpy(), though doubtless
slower and certainly harder to reason about.  So just use memcpy() in
these cases.

In other cases, use either StrNCpy() or strlcpy() as appropriate (depending
on whether padding to the full length of the destination buffer seems
useful).

I left a few strncpy() calls alone in the src/timezone/ code, to keep it
in sync with upstream (the IANA tzcode distribution).  There are also a
few such calls in ecpg that could possibly do with more analysis.

AFAICT, none of these changes are more than cosmetic, except for the four
occurrences in fe-secure-openssl.c, which are in fact buggy: an overlength
source leads to a non-null-terminated destination buffer and ensuing
misbehavior.  These don't seem like security issues, first because no stack
clobber is possible and second because if your values of sslcert etc are
coming from untrusted sources then you've got problems way worse than this.
Still, it's undesirable to have unpredictable behavior for overlength
inputs, so back-patch those four changes to all active branches.

Tom Lane b2cbced9ee Support timezone abbreviations that sometimes change.
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.

Tom Lane 01824385ae Prevent potential overruns of fixed-size buffers.
Coverity identified a number of places in which it couldn't prove that a
string being copied into a fixed-size buffer would fit.  We believe that
most, perhaps all of these are in fact safe, or are copying data that is
coming from a trusted source so that any overrun is not really a security
issue.  Nonetheless it seems prudent to forestall any risk by using
strlcpy() and similar functions.

Fixes by Peter Eisentraut and Jozef Mlich based on Coverity reports.

In addition, fix a potential null-pointer-dereference crash in
contrib/chkpass.  The crypt(3) function is defined to return NULL on
failure, but chkpass.c didn't check for that before using the result.
The main practical case in which this could be an issue is if libc is
configured to refuse to execute unapproved hashing algorithms (e.g.,
"FIPS mode").  This ideally should've been a separate commit, but
since it touches code adjacent to one of the buffer overrun changes,
I included it in this commit to avoid last-minute merge issues.
This issue was reported by Honza Horak.

Tom Lane 0d79c0a8cc Make various variables const (read-only).
These changes should generally improve correctness/maintainability.
A nice side benefit is that several kilobytes move from initialized
data to text segment, allowing them to be shared across processes and
probably reducing copy-on-write overhead while forking a new backend.
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to help libpq in the same way (at least
not when it's compiled with -fpic on x86_64), but we can hope the linker
at least collects all nominally-const data together even if it's not
actually part of the text segment.

Also, make pg_encname_tbl[] static in encnames.c, since there seems
no very good reason for any other code to use it; per a suggestion
from Wim Lewis, who independently submitted a patch that was mostly
a subset of this one.

Tom Lane 631dc390f4 Fix some odd behaviors when using a SQL-style simple GMT offset timezone.
Formerly, when using a SQL-spec timezone setting with a fixed GMT offset
(called a "brute force" timezone in the code), the session_timezone
variable was not updated to match the nominal timezone; rather, all code
was expected to ignore session_timezone if HasCTZSet was true.  This is
of course obviously fragile, though a search of the code finds only
timeofday() failing to honor the rule.  A bigger problem was that
DetermineTimeZoneOffset() supposed that if its pg_tz parameter was
pointer-equal to session_timezone, then HasCTZSet should override the
parameter.  This would cause datetime input containing an explicit zone
name to be treated as referencing the brute-force zone instead, if the
zone name happened to match the session timezone that had prevailed
before installing the brute-force zone setting (as reported in bug #8572).
The same malady could affect AT TIME ZONE operators.

To fix, set up session_timezone so that it matches the brute-force zone
specification, which we can do using the POSIX timezone definition syntax
"<abbrev>offset", and get rid of the bogus lookaside check in
DetermineTimeZoneOffset().  Aside from fixing the erroneous behavior in
datetime parsing and AT TIME ZONE, this will cause the timeofday() function
to print its result in the user-requested time zone rather than some
previously-set zone.  It might also affect results in third-party
extensions, if there are any that make use of session_timezone without
considering HasCTZSet, but in all cases the new behavior should be saner
than before.

Back-patch to all supported branches.
