checks for individual-table-size functions, since anyone in the database could
get approximate values from pg_class.relpages anyway. Allow database-size to
users with CONNECT privilege for the target database (note that this is
granted by default). Allow tablespace-size if the user has CREATE privilege
on the tablespace (which is *not* granted by default), or if the tablespace is
the default tablespace for the current database (since we treat that as
implicitly allowing use of the tablespace).
read from the temp file didn't match the file length reported by ftello(),
the wrong variable's value was printed, and so the message made no sense.
Clean up a couple other coding infelicities while at it.
even if the "deadlock detected" ERROR message is suppressed by an exception
catcher. Be clearer about the event sequence when a soft deadlock is fixed:
the fixing process might or might not still have to wait, so log that
separately. Fix race condition when someone releases us from the lock partway
through printing all this junk --- we'd not get confused about our state, but
the log message sequence could have been misleading, ie, a "still waiting"
message with no subsequent "acquired" message. Greg Stark and Tom Lane.
namespace isn't necessarily first in the search path (there could be implicit
schemas ahead of it). Examples are
test=# set search_path TO s1;
test=# create view pg_timezone_names as select * from pg_timezone_names();
ERROR: "pg_timezone_names" is already a view
test=# create table pg_class (f1 int primary key);
ERROR: permission denied: "pg_class" is a system catalog
You'd expect these commands to create the requested objects in s1, since
names beginning with pg_ aren't supposed to be reserved anymore. What is
happening is that we create the requested base table and then execute
additional commands (here, CREATE RULE or CREATE INDEX), and that code is
passed the same RangeVar that was in the original command. Since that
RangeVar has schemaname = NULL, the secondary commands think they should do a
path search, and that means they find system catalogs that are implicitly in
front of s1 in the search path.
This is perilously close to being a security hole: if the secondary command
failed to apply a permission check then it'd be possible for unprivileged
users to make schema modifications to system catalogs. But as far as I can
find, there is no code path in which a check doesn't occur. Which makes it
just a weird corner-case bug for people who are silly enough to want to
name their tables the same as a system catalog.
The relevant code has changed quite a bit since 8.2, which means this patch
wouldn't work as-is in the back branches. Since it's a corner case no one
has reported from the field, I'm not going to bother trying to back-patch.
days that was obsolete the moment we had IN (SELECT ...) capability.
It's arguably a security hole since it applied no permissions check to
the table it searched, and since it was never documented anywhere,
removing it seems more appropriate than fixing it.
and pg_tablespace_size to superusers. Perhaps we could weaken the first
case to just require SELECT privilege, but that doesn't work for the
other cases, so use ownership as the common concept.
While it's not clear that TID linkage info is of any great use to a
nefarious user, it's certainly unexpected that these functions wouldn't
insist on read privileges.
but just hardwire the specified timezone database path into the executable.
Per discussion, this avoids some packaging disadvantages of using a
symlink.
relcache entry after having heap_close'd it. This could lead to misbehavior
if a relcache flush wiped out the cache entry meanwhile. In 8.2 there is a
very real risk of CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY using the wrong relid for locking
and waiting purposes. I think the bug is only cosmetic in 8.0 and 8.1,
because their transgression is limited to using RelationGetRelationName(rel)
in an ereport message immediately after heap_close, and there's no way (except
with special debugging options) for a cache flush to occur in that interval.
Not quite sure that it's cosmetic in 7.4, but seems best to patch anyway.
Found by trying to run the regression tests with CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS enabled.
Maybe we should try to do that on a regular basis --- it's awfully slow,
but perhaps some fast buildfarm machine could do it once in awhile.
- ispell initialization crashed on empty dictionary file
- ispell initialization crashed on affix file with prefixes but no suffixes
- stop words file was run through pg_verify_mbstr, with database
encoding, but it's supposed to be UTF-8; similar bug for synonym files
- bunch of comments added, typos fixed, and other cleanup
Introduced consistent encoding checking/conversion of data read from tsearch
configuration files, by doing this in a single t_readline() subroutine
(replacing direct usages of fgets). Cleaned up API for readstopwords too.

This prevents needing to do complex and poorly-defined updates of the
mapping table if the new parser has different token types than the old.
Per discussion.
init options of the template as top-level options in the syntax. This also
makes ALTER a bit easier to use, since options can be replaced individually.
I also made these statements verify that the tmplinit method will accept
the new settings before they get stored; in the original coding you didn't
find out about mistakes until the dictionary got invoked.
Under the hood, init methods now get options as a List of DefElem instead
of a raw text string --- that lets tsearch use existing options-pushing code
instead of duplicating functionality.
'with map' parameter; as things now stand there's really not much point
in specifying a config-to-copy if you don't copy its map. Also, use
COPY instead of TEMPLATE as the key word for a config-to-copy, so as
to avoid confusion with text search templates. Per discussion; the
just-committed reference page for the command already describes it
this way.
There's not much point in prettifying machine-generated code, and it
seems best to keep these files exactly like upstream anyway. Also add
some notes about why various files are excluded.
byte after the last full byte of the bit array, regardless of whether that
byte was part of the valid data or not. Found by buildfarm testing.
Thanks to Stefan Kaltenbrunner for nailing down the cause.
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.
are not one of the query's defined result relations, but nonetheless have
triggers fired against them while the query is active. This was formerly
impossible but can now occur because of my recent patch to fix the firing
order for RI triggers. Caching a ResultRelInfo avoids duplicating work by
repeatedly opening and closing the same relation, and also allows EXPLAIN
ANALYZE to "see" and report on these extra triggers. Use the same mechanism
to cache open relations when firing deferred triggers at transaction shutdown;
this replaces the former one-element-cache strategy used in that case, and
should improve performance a bit when there are deferred triggers on a number
of relations.
row within one query: we were firing check triggers before all the updates
were done, leading to bogus failures. Fix by making the triggers queued by
an RI update go at the end of the outer query's trigger event list, thereby
effectively making the processing "breadth-first". This was indeed how it
worked pre-8.0, so the bug does not occur in the 7.x branches.
Per report from Pavel Stehule.
that still thought they could set HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED immediately after
seeing the other transaction commit. Make them use the same logic as
tqual.c does to determine if the hint bit can be set yet.
