1) datetime_pl_span() added the seconds field before adding the months
field. This lead to erroneous results for e.g.
select datetime '1999-11-30' + timespan '1 mon - 1 sec';
Reverse the order of operations to add months first.
2) tm2timespan() did all intermediate math as integer, converting to double
at the very end. This resulted in hidden overflows when given very large
integer days, hours, etc. For example,
select '74565 days'::timespan;
produced the wrong result. Change code to ensure that doubles are used
for intermediate calculations.

during InitProcessingMode and the CurrentTransactionState was neither
TRANS_DEFAULT nor TRANS_DISABLED. Unfortunately, after someone's recent
change to start the transaction manager earlier in startup than it used
to be started, that caused an abort() and consequent database system
reset on quite harmless errors (such as rejecting an invalid user name!).
As far as I can see, the test on CurrentTransactionState was completely
useless anyway, so I've removed it.
relcache entry no longer leaks a small amount of memory. index_endscan
now releases all the memory acquired by index_beginscan, so callers of it
should NOT pfree the scan descriptor anymore.
SELECT null::text;

work as expected now. In some cases a NULL must be surrounded by
parentheses:
SELECT 2 + null; fails
SELECT 2 + (null); OK
This is a grammatical ambiguity that seems difficult to avoid. Other
than that, NULLs seem to behave about like you'd expect. The internal
implementation is that NULL constants are typed as UNKNOWN (like
untyped string constants) until the parser can deduce the right type.
with DEC C.
DEC C doesn't handle double values greater than DBL_MAX, but some
PostgreSQL geo functions assign greater than DBL_MAX values to some vars
in some special cases - that couses SIGFPE. I dunno if that is the only place
to fix to work well with DEC C.

I was able to crash postgres 6.5.3 when I did an 'alter user' command.
After I started a debugger I found the problem in the timezone handling
of
datetime (my Linux box lost its timezone information, that's how the
problem occurred).
Only 7 bytes are reserved for the timezone, without checking for
boundaries.
Attached is a patch that fixes this problem and emits a NOTICE if a
timezone is encountered that is longer than MAXTZLEN bytes, like this:

Make all system indexes unique.
Make all cache loads use system indexes.
Rename *rel to *relid in inheritance tables.
Rename cache names to be clearer.
for the case of errors in backend startup, and proc_exit's method for
coping with errors during proc_exit was *completely* busted. Fixed per
discussions on pghackers around 11/6/99.
inval.c thought it could safely use the catcache to look up the OIDs of
system relations. Not good, considering that inval.c could be called
during catcache loading, if a shared-inval message arrives. Rip out the
lookup logic and instead use the known OIDs from pg_class.h.
Warn_restart has been set by the backend main loop. This means that
elog(ERROR) or elog(FATAL) in the postmaster or during backend startup
now have well-defined behavior: proc_exit() rather than coredump.
In the case of elog() inside the postmaster, I think that proc_exit()
is probably not enough --- don't we want our child backends to be
forced to quit too? But I don't understand Vadim's recent changes in
this area, so I'll leave it to him to look over and tweak if needed.
subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator.
That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...),
but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere
in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks
to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand
side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK.
To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink
type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to.
But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side
row expression.
Now indexes of pg_class and pg_type are unique indexes
and guarantee the uniqueness of correponding attributes.
heap_create() was changed to take another boolean parameter
which allows to postpone the creation of disk file.
The name of rd_nonameunlinked was changed to rd_unlinked.
It is used generally(not only for noname relations) now.
Requires initdb.
during initial run formation by keeping both current run and next-run
tuples in the same heap (yup, Knuth is smarter than I am). And, during
merge passes, make use of available sort memory to load multiple tuples
from any one input 'tape' at a time, thereby improving locality of
access to the temp file.
eliminating some wildly inconsistent coding in various parts of the
system. I set MAXPGPATH = 1024 in config.h.in. If anyone is really
convinced that there ought to be a configure-time test to set the
value, go right ahead ... but I think it's a waste of time.
a generalized module 'tuplesort.c' that can sort either HeapTuples or
IndexTuples, and is not tied to execution of a Sort node. Clean up
memory leakages in sorting, and replace nbtsort.c's private implementation
of mergesorting with calls to tuplesort.c.
recycle storage within sort temp file on a block-by-block basis. This
reduces peak disk usage to essentially just the volume of data being
sorted, whereas it had been about 4x the data volume before.
BufFile so that it handles multi-segment temporary files transparently.
This allows sorts and hashes to work with data exceeding 2Gig (or whatever
the local limit on file size is). Change psort.c to use relative seeks
instead of absolute seeks for backwards scanning, so that it won't fail
when the data volume exceeds 2Gig.
expressions in CREATE TABLE. There is no longer an emasculated expression
syntax for these things; it's full a_expr for constraints, and b_expr
for defaults (unfortunately the fact that NOT NULL is a part of the
column constraint syntax causes a shift/reduce conflict if you try a_expr.
Oh well --- at least parenthesized boolean expressions work now). Also,
stored expression for a column default is not pre-coerced to the column
type; we rely on transformInsertStatement to do that when the default is
actually used. This means "f1 datetime default 'now'" behaves the way
people usually expect it to.
BTW, all the support code is now there to implement ALTER TABLE ADD
CONSTRAINT and ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN with a default value. I didn't
actually teach ALTER TABLE to call it, but it wouldn't be much work.
not just C, so that ISCACHABLE attribute can be specified for user-defined
functions. Get rid of ParamString node type, which wasn't actually being
generated by gram.y anymore, even though define.c thought that was what
it was getting. Clean up minor bug in dfmgr.c (premature heap_close).
they have no hardwired limit on the length of a rule's text. Fix a couple
of minor bugs in passing --- deparsed UPDATE queries didn't have quotes

functions. One problem that I have encountered with the function
manager is that it does not allow the user to define type conversion
functions that convert between user types. For instance if mytype1,
mytype2, and mytype3 are three Postgresql user types, and if I wish to
define Postgresql conversion functions like
I run into problems, because the Postgresql dynamic loader would look
for a single link symbol, mytype3, for both pieces of object code. If
I just change the name of one of the Postgresql functions (to make the
symbols distinct), the automatic type conversion that Postgresql uses,
for example, when matching operators to arguments no longer finds the
type conversion function.
The solution that I propose, and have implemented in the attatched
patch extends the CREATE FUNCTION syntax as follows. In the first case
above I use the link symbol mytype2_to_mytype3 for the link object
that implements the first conversion function, and define the
Postgresql operator with the following syntax
The patch includes changes to the parser to include the altered
syntax, changes to the ProcedureStmt node in nodes/parsenodes.h,
changes to commands/define.c to handle the extra information in the AS
clause, and changes to utils/fmgr/dfmgr.c that alter the way that the
dynamic loader figures out what link symbol to use. I store the
string for the link symbol in the prosrc text attribute of the pg_proc
table which is currently unused in rows that reference dynamically
loaded
functions.

with no input rows, per pghackers discussions around 7/22/99. Clean up
a bunch of ugly coding while at it; remove redundant re-lookup of
aggregate info at start of each new GROUP. Arrange to pfree intermediate
values when they are pass-by-ref types, so that aggregates on pass-by-ref
types no longer eat memory. This takes care of a couple of TODO items...
* Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22).
* Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info,
and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all
backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex
hashtable that was used before). Add databaseOID to PROC structs.
* Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of
a database containing running backends. (It's a little tricky to prevent
a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new
backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up
its database in pg_database. My solution is to recheck that the DB is
OK at the end of InitPostgres. It may not be a 100% solution, but it's
a lot better than no interlock at all...)
* In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the
rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from
mdblindwrt().
* Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current
sources :-(.
You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.
additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or
'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked
with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures
that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent
problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with
mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched
heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on
a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to
arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this
sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in
DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi.
Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the
Relation struct layout slightly.
Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.
This change seems necessary in conjunction with long queries, and it
cleans up some bogosity in connection with long EXPLAIN texts anyway.
Note that current libpq will accept any length error message (at least
until it runs out of memory); prior versions have a limit of 8K, but
will cleanly discard excess error text, so there shouldn't be any
big compatibility problems with old clients.

current transaction) are not flushed by shared-cache-inval reset message.

real names in the relcache, to ensure there's not more than one relcache
entry for them.
has positive refcount, it is rebuilt from pg_class data. This ensures
that relcache entries will track changes made by other backends. Formerly,
a shared inval report would just be ignored if it happened to arrive while
the relcache entry was in use. Also, fix relcache to reset ref counts
to zero during transaction abort. Finally, change LockRelation() so that
it checks for shared inval reports after obtaining the lock. In this way,
once any kind of lock has been obtained on a rel, we can trust the relcache
entry to be up-to-date.
insight that RelationFlushRelation ought to invoke smgrclose, and that the
way to make that work is to ensure that mdclose doesn't fail if the relation
is already closed (or unlinked, if we are looking at a DROP TABLE). While
I was testing that, I was able to identify several problems that we had
with multiple-segment relations. The system is now able to do initdb and
pass the regression tests with a very small segment size (I had it set to
64Kb per segment for testing). I don't believe that ever worked before.
File descriptor leaks seem to be gone too.
I have partially addressed the concerns we had about mdtruncate(), too.
On a Win32 or NFS filesystem it is not possible to unlink a file that
another backend is holding open, so what md.c now does is to truncate
unwanted files to zero length before trying to unlink them. The other
backends will be forced to close their open files by relation cache
invalidation --- but I think it would take considerable work to make
that happen before vacuum truncates the relation rather than after.
Leaving zero-length files lying around seems a usable compromise.
references or CASE expressions, didn't parenthesize complex expressions
properly. Also, always output variable references as fully qualified
names to eliminate ambiguity bug recently reported. (This could be
smarter, but reliability comes first.)
documented intepretation of the lefthand and oper fields. Fix a number of
obscure problems while at it --- for example, the old code failed if the parser
decided to insert a type-coercion function just below the operator of a
SubLink.
CAUTION: this will break stored rules that contain subplans. You may
need to initdb.
ALLOC_BIGCHUNK_LIMIT are always allocated as separate malloc() blocks,
and are free()d immediately upon pfree(). Also, if such a chunk is enlarged
with repalloc(), translate the operation into a realloc() so as to
minimize memory usage. Of course, these large chunks still get freed
automatically if the alloc set is reset.
I have set ALLOC_BIGCHUNK_LIMIT at 64K for now, but perhaps another
size would be better?
sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top
level of the planner. This fixes many things. An explicit sort is now
avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not
only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY. It works
even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider
the indexscan. It works for indexes on functions. It works for indexes
on functions, backwards. It's just so cool...
CAUTION: I have changed the representation of SortClause nodes, therefore
THIS UPDATE BREAKS STORED RULES. You will need to initdb.
(it should just call the given operator, not look up an = operator).
Fix intltsel() so that all numeric data types are converted to double
before trying to estimate where the given comparison value is in the
known range of column values. intltsel() still needs work, or replacement,
for non-numeric data types ... but for nonintegral numeric types it
should now be delivering reasonable estimates.
neqsel now behave as per my suggestions in pghackers a few days ago.
selectivity for < > <= >= should work OK for integral types as well, but
still need work for nonintegral types. Since these routines have never
actually executed before :-(, this may result in some significant changes
in the optimizer's choices of execution plans. Let me know if you see
any serious misbehavior.
CAUTION: THESE CHANGES REQUIRE INITDB. pg_statistic table has changed.
that contain null fields. Old code would produce erratic sort results
because comparisons of tuples containing nulls could produce inconsistent

"HAS_LONG_LONG" is defined based on the assumption that
strtol() would return ERANGE if a platform does not support
64-bit integers. In current PostgreSQL 6.5 (and 6.4.2)
distribution, "HAS_LONG_LONG" is defined only if platform
is "alpha". (See include/port/alpha.h) I think the int4
range check should apply to linux_alpha as well. (I have
not tested yet but I guess this might be applicable to
newer Linux/i386 distributions which includes new GCC which
implements long int as 64-bit int.)
this one could be useful for people experiencing out-of-memory crashes while
executing queries which retrieve or use a very large number of tuples.
The problem happens when storage is allocated for functions results used in
a large query, for example:
select upper(name) from big_table;
select big_table.array[1] from big_table;
select count(upper(name)) from big_table;
This patch is a dirty hack that fixes the out-of-memory problem for the most
common cases, like the above ones. It is not the final solution for the
problem but it can work for some people, so I'm posting it.
The patch should be safe because all changes are under #ifdef. Furthermore
the feature can be enabled or disabled at runtime by the `free_tuple_memory'
options in the pg_options file. The option is disabled by default and must
be explicitly enabled at runtime to have any effect.
To enable the patch add the follwing line to Makefile.custom:
CUSTOM_COPT += -DFREE_TUPLE_MEMORY
To enable the option at runtime add the following line to pg_option:
free_tuple_memory=1

varchar-array.patch this patch adds support for arrays of bpchar() and
varchar(), which where always missing from postgres.

_char8, etc., which were dropped some time ago.
block-size.patch this patch fixes many errors in the parser and other

This patch is needed if you want to submit queries
larger than 8K. Postgres supports tuples up to 32K
but you can't insert them because you can't submit
queries larger than 8K. My patch fixes this problem.
The patch also replaces all the occurrences of `8192'

defined in include files. You should now never find

results in a bogus datetime value under AlphaLinux. (Note that
the link to submit a port-specific bug on your website is broken)
-Test Case:
----------
testdb=> create table dttest (dt datetime);
testdb=> insert into dttest values ('now');
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Solution:
---------
The basic problem is the typedefs of AbsoluteTime and RelativeTime,
which are both 'int32'. These types appear to be used synonymously
with the 'time_t' type, which on AlphaLinux is typedef'd as a 'long
int', which is 64-bits (not 32). The solution included here fixes
the datetime type (it now passes the regression test), but does not
pass the absolute and relative time regression tests. Presumably, a
more thorough investigation of how these types are used is warranted.
The included patch is from the v6.3.2 source, but can be applied to
the v6.4.2 source. Please note that there is also a RedHat-specific
patch distributed with the PostgreSQL source package from RedHat
that was applied first.

for int8 support. configure now checks only snprintf() for int8 support,
not sprintf and sscanf as it used to. The reason for doing this is that
if we are supplying our own snprintf code (which does handle long long int),
we now only need working long long support in the compiler not in the

Here is a first patch to cleanup the backend side of libpq.
This patch removes all external dependencies on the "Pfin" and "Pfout" that
are declared in pqcomm.h. These variables are also changed to "static" to
make sure.
Almost all the change is in the handler of the "copy" command - most other
areas of the backend already used the correct functions.
This change will make the way for cleanup of the internal stuff there - now
that all the functions accessing the file descriptors are confined to a
single directory.
when deciding whether a field is a year field. Assume *anything* longer
than 2 digits (if it isn't a special-case doy) is a valid year.
This should fix the "Y1K" and "Y10K" problems
pointed out by Massimo recently.
Check usage of BC to require a positive-valued year; before just used it
to flip the sign of the year without checking. This led to problems
near year zero.
Allow a 5 digit "concatenated date" of 2 digit year plus day of year.
Do 2->4 digit year correction for 6 and 5 digit "concatenated dates".
