<sys/select.h> is required by POSIX.1-2001 to get the prototype of
select(2), but nearly no systems enforce that because older standards
let you get away with including some other headers. Recent OpenBSD

Per bug #14334 by Sean Farrell.
We had thirty different GIN array opclasses sharing the same operators and
support functions. That still didn't cover all the built-in types, nor
did it cover arrays of extension-added types. What we want is a single
polymorphic opclass for "anyarray". There were two missing features needed
to make this possible:
1. We have to be able to declare the index storage type as ANYELEMENT
when the opclass is declared to index ANYARRAY. This just takes a few
more lines in index_create(). Although this currently seems of use only
for GIN, there's no reason to make index_create() restrict it to that.
2. We have to be able to identify the proper GIN compare function for
the index storage type. This patch proceeds by making the compare function
optional in GIN opclass definitions, and specifying that the default btree
comparison function for the index storage type will be looked up when the
opclass omits it. Again, that seems pretty generically useful.
Since the comparison function lookup is done in initGinState(), making
use of the second feature adds an additional cache lookup to GIN index
access setup. It seems unlikely that that would be very noticeable given
the other costs involved, but maybe at some point we should consider
making GinState data persist longer than it now does --- we could keep it
in the index relcache entry, perhaps.
Rather fortuitously, we don't seem to need to do anything to get this
change to play nice with dump/reload or pg_upgrade scenarios: the new
opclass definition is automatically selected to replace existing index
definitions, and the on-disk data remains compatible. Also, if a user has
created a custom opclass definition for a non-builtin type, this doesn't
break that, since CREATE INDEX will prefer an exact match to opcintype
over a match to ANYARRAY. However, if there's anyone out there with
handwritten DDL that explicitly specifies _bool_ops or one of the other
replaced opclass names, they'll need to adjust that.

We weren't terribly consistent about whether to call Apple's OS "OS X"

to establish a consistent naming pattern. Also, avoid the use of the
ancient project name "Darwin", except as the port code name which does not
seem desirable to change. (In short, this patch touches documentation and

Commits 470d886c3 et al intended to fix the problem that the postmaster
selected the same "random" DSM control segment ID on every start. But
using PostmasterRandom() for that destroys the intended property that the

(Said delay is probably already more predictable than we could wish, but
that doesn't mean that reducing it by a couple orders of magnitude is OK.)

Past refactorings have removed all but one reference to SizeOfIptrData

complained, it seems probable that there are no supported compilers

wasting MAXALIGN per heap tuple anyway, so it's rather silly to worry
about whether we can shave space in places like WAL records.

ExecInitCteScan supposed that it didn't have to do anything to the extra
tuplestore read pointer it gets from tuplestore_alloc_read_pointer.
However, it needs this read pointer to be positioned at the start of the
tuplestore, while tuplestore_alloc_read_pointer is actually defined as
cloning the current position of read pointer 0. In normal situations
that accidentally works because we initialize the whole plan tree at once,
before anything gets read. But it fails in an EvalPlanQual recheck, as
illustrated in bug #14328 from Dima Pavlov. To fix, just forcibly rewind
the pointer after tuplestore_alloc_read_pointer. The cost of doing so is
negligible unless the tuplestore is already in TSS_READFILE state, which
wouldn't happen in normal cases. We could consider altering tuplestore's
API to make that case cheaper, but that would make for a more invasive
back-patch and it doesn't seem worth it.
This has been broken probably for as long as we've had CTEs, so back-patch
to all supported branches.

Otherwise, attempts to run multiple postmasters running on the same

Teach the parser to reject misplaced set-returning functions during parse
analysis using p_expr_kind, in much the same way as we do for aggregates
and window functions (cf commit eaccfded9). While this isn't complete
(it misses nesting-based restrictions), it's much better than the previous
error reporting for such cases, and it allows elimination of assorted
ad-hoc expression_returns_set() error checks. We could add nesting checks
later if it seems important to catch all cases at parse time.
There is one case the parser will now throw error for although previous
versions allowed it, which is SRFs in the tlist of an UPDATE. That never
behaved sensibly (since it's ill-defined which generated row should be
used to perform the update) and it's hard to see why it should not be
treated as an error. It's a release-note-worthy change though.
Also, add a new Query field hasTargetSRFs reporting whether there are
any SRFs in the targetlist (including GROUP BY/ORDER BY expressions).
The parser can now set that basically for free during parse analysis,
and we can use it in a number of places to avoid expression_returns_set
searches. (There will be more such checks soon.) In some places, this
allows decontorting the logic since it's no longer expensive to check for
SRFs in the tlist --- so I made the checks parallel to the handling of
hasAggs/hasWindowFuncs wherever it seemed appropriate.

Michael Paquier, issue raised by Fujii Masao, reviewed by Tom Lane
Previously, to update an extension you had to produce both a version-update
script and a new base installation script. It's become more and more
obvious that that's tedious, duplicative, and error-prone. This patch
attempts to improve matters by allowing the new base installation script
to be omitted. CREATE EXTENSION will install a requested version if it
can find a base script and a chain of update scripts that will get there.
As in the existing update logic, shorter chains are preferred if there's
more than one possibility, with an arbitrary tie-break rule for chains
of equal length.
Also adjust the pg_available_extension_versions view to show such versions
as installable.
While at it, refactor the code so that CASCADE processing works for
extensions requested during ApplyExtensionUpdates(). Without this,
addition of a new requirement in an updated extension would require
creating a new base script, even if there was no other reason to do that.
(It would be easy at this point to add a CASCADE option to ALTER EXTENSION
UPDATE, to allow the same thing to happen during a manually-commanded
version update, but I have not done that here.)

In external sort's merge phase, we maintain a binary heap holding the next
tuple from each input tape. On each step, the topmost tuple is returned,
and replaced with the next tuple from the same tape. We were doing the
replacement by deleting the top node in one operation, and inserting the
next tuple after that. However, you can do a "replace-top" operation more
efficiently, in one "sift-up". A deletion will always walk the heap from
top to bottom, but in a replacement, we can stop as soon as we find the
right place for the new tuple. This is particularly helpful, if the tapes
are not in completely random order, so that the next tuple from a tape is
likely to land near the top of the heap.

Commit dd1a3bccc replaced a test on whether a subroutine returned a
null pointer with a test on whether &pointer->backendStatus was null.
This accidentally failed to fail, at least on common compilers, because
backendStatus is the first field in the struct; but it was surely trouble
waiting to happen. Commit f91feba87 then messed things up further,
changing the logic to
local_beentry = pgstat_fetch_stat_local_beentry(curr_backend);
if (!local_beentry)
continue;
beentry = &local_beentry->backendStatus;
if (!beentry)
{
where the second "if" is now dead code, so that the intended behavior of
printing a row with "<backend information not available>" cannot occur.
I suspect this is all moot because pgstat_fetch_stat_local_beentry
will never actually return null in this function's usage, but it's still
very poor coding. Repair back to 9.4 where the original problem was
introduced.
The full generality of deleting an arbitrary number of tuples is no longer
needed, so let's save some code and cycles by replacing the original coding
with an implementation based on PageIndexTupleDelete.
We can always get back the old code from git if we need it again for new
callers (though I don't care for its willingness to mess with line pointers
it wasn't told to mess with).

PageIndexTupleOverwrite performs approximately the same function as
PageIndexTupleDelete (or PageIndexDeleteNoCompact) followed by PageAddItem
targeting the same item pointer offset. But in the case where the new
tuple is the same size as the old, it avoids shuffling other data around on
the page, because the new tuple is placed where the old one was rather than
being appended to the end of the page. This has been shown to provide a
substantial speedup for some GiST use-cases.
Also, this change allows some API simplifications: we can get rid of
the rather klugy and error-prone PAI_ALLOW_FAR_OFFSET flag for
PageAddItemExtended, since that was used only to cover a corner case
for BRIN that's better expressed by using PageIndexTupleOverwrite.
Note that this patch causes a rather subtle WAL incompatibility: the
physical page content change represented by certain WAL records is now
different than it was before, because while the tuples have the same
itempointer line numbers, the tuples themselves are in different places.
I have not bumped the WAL version number because I think it doesn't matter
unless you are trying to do bitwise comparisons of original and replayed
pages, and in any case we're early in a devel cycle and there will probably
be more WAL changes before v10 gets out the door.
There is probably room to make use of PageIndexTupleOverwrite in SP-GiST
and GIN too, but that is left for a future patch.

When heap_lock_tuple decides to follow the update chain, it tried to
also lock any version of the tuple that was created by an update that
was subsequently rolled back. This is pointless, since for all intents
and purposes that tuple exists no more; and moreover it causes
misbehavior, as reported independently by Marko Tiikkaja and Marti
Raudsepp: some SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE queries may fail to return
the tuples, and assertion-enabled builds crash.
Fix by having heap_lock_updated_tuple test the xmin and return success
immediately if the tuple was created by an aborted transaction.
The condition where tuples become invisible occurs when an updated tuple
chain is followed by heap_lock_updated_tuple, which reports the problem
as HeapTupleSelfUpdated to its caller heap_lock_tuple, which in turn
propagates that code outwards possibly leading the calling code
(ExecLockRows) to believe that the tuple exists no longer.
Backpatch to 9.3. Only on 9.5 and newer this leads to a visible
failure, because of commit 27846f02c176; before that, heap_lock_tuple
skips the whole dance when the tuple is already locked by the same
transaction, because of the ancient HeapTupleSatisfiesUpdate behavior.
Still, the buggy condition may also exist in more convoluted scenarios
involving concurrent transactions, so it seems safer to fix the bug in
the old branches too.

PageAddItem stores the item length as-is. It MAXALIGN's the amount of
space actually allocated for each tuple, but not the stored length.
PageRepairFragmentation, PageIndexMultiDelete, and PageIndexDeleteNoCompact
are all on board with this and MAXALIGN item lengths after fetching them.
But PageIndexTupleDelete expects the stored length to be a MAXALIGN
multiple already. This accidentally works for existing index AMs because
they all maxalign their tuple sizes internally; but we don't do that for
heap tuples, and it shouldn't be a requirement for index tuples either.
So, sync PageIndexTupleDelete with the rest of bufpage.c by having it
maxalign the item size after fetching.
Also add a check that pd_special is maxaligned, to ensure that the test
"(offset + size) > phdr->pd_special" is still doing the right thing.
(If offset and pd_special are aligned, it doesn't matter whether size is.)
Again, this is in sync with the rest of the routines here, except for
PageAddItem which doesn't test because it doesn't actually do anything
for which pd_special alignment matters.
This shouldn't have any immediate functional impact; it just adds the
flexibility to use PageIndexTupleDelete on index tuples with non-aligned
lengths.

We have a not-terribly-thoroughly-enforced-yet project policy that internal
errors with SQLSTATE XX000 (ie, plain elog) should not be triggerable from
SQL. record_in, domain_in, and PL validator functions all failed to meet
this standard, because they threw plain elog("cache lookup failed for XXX")
errors on bad OIDs, and those are all invokable from SQL.
For record_in, the best fix is to upgrade typcache.c (lookup_type_cache)
to throw a user-facing error for this case. That seems consistent because
it was more than halfway there already, having user-facing errors for shell
types and non-composite types. Having done that, tweak domain_in to rely
on the typcache to throw an appropriate error. (This costs little because
InitDomainConstraintRef would fetch the typcache entry anyway.)
For the PL validator functions, we already have a single choke point at
CheckFunctionValidatorAccess, so just fix its error to be user-facing.

Some of the comments added by the CREATE EXTENSION CASCADE patch were
a bit sloppy, and I didn't care for redeclaring the same local variable
inside a nested block either. No functional changes.
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.

To prevent possibly breaking indexes on enum columns, we must keep
uncommitted enum values from getting stored in tables, unless we
can be sure that any such column is new in the current transaction.
Formerly, we enforced this by disallowing ALTER TYPE ... ADD VALUE
from being executed at all in a transaction block, unless the target
enum type had been created in the current transaction. This patch
removes that restriction, and instead insists that an uncommitted enum
value can't be referenced unless it belongs to an enum type created
in the same transaction as the value. Per discussion, this should be

When pg_logical_slot_get_changes(...) sets confirmed_flush_lsn to the point at
which replay stopped, it doesn't dirty the replication slot. So if the replay
didn't cause restart_lsn or catalog_xmin to change as well, this change will
not get written out to disk. Even on a clean shutdown.
If Pg crashes or restarts, a subsequent pg_logical_slot_get_changes(...) call
will see the same changes already replayed since it uses the slot's
confirmed_flush_lsn as the start point for fetching changes. The caller can't
specify a start LSN when using the SQL interface.
Mark the slot as dirty after reading changes using the SQL interface so that
users won't see repeated changes after a clean shutdown. Repeated changes still
occur when using the walsender interface or after an unclean shutdown.

Andres is apparently the only hacker who thinks this code is better as-is.

Coverity complained about the for(;;) loop, because it never actually
iterated. It was used just to be able to use "break" to exit it early. I
agree with Coverity, that's a bit confusing, so refactor the code to
use if-else instead.
While we're at it, use a local variable to hold the "current" node. That's
shorter and clearer than referring to "iter->last_visited" all the time.
These were evidently introduced by yesterday's commit 9cca11c91,
which perhaps needs more review than it got.

computeLeafRecompressWALData() tried to produce a uint16 WAL log field by
memcpy'ing the first two bytes of an int-sized variable. That accidentally
works on little-endian hardware, but not at all on big-endian. Replay then
thinks it's looking at an ADDITEMS action with zero entries, and reads the
first two bytes of the first TID therein as the next segno/action,
typically leading to "unexpected GIN leaf action" errors during replay.
Even if replay failed to crash, the resulting GIN index page would surely
be incorrect. To fix, just declare the variable as uint16 instead.

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

This introduces a numeric sum accumulator, which performs better than
repeatedly calling add_var(). The performance comes from using wider digits
and delaying carry propagation, tallying positive and negative values
separately, and avoiding a round of palloc/pfree on every value. This
speeds up SUM(), as well as other standard aggregates like AVG() and
STDDEV() that also calculate a sum internally.

While we don't need multiple iterators at the moment, the interface is
nicer and less dangerous this way.
Aleksander Alekseev, with some changes by me.
A majority of callers seem to have believed that this was the API spec
already, because they omitted any check for a NULL result, and hence
would crash on an out-of-shared-memory failure. The original proposal
was to just add such error checks everywhere, but that does nothing to
prevent similar omissions in future. Instead, let's make ShmemAlloc()
throw the error (so we can remove the caller-side checks that do exist),
and introduce a new function ShmemAllocNoError() that has the previous
behavior of returning NULL, for the small number of callers that need
that and are prepared to do the right thing. This also lets us remove
the rather wishy-washy behavior of printing a WARNING for out-of-shmem,
which never made much sense: either the caller has a strategy for
dealing with that, or it doesn't. It's not ShmemAlloc's business to
decide whether a warning is appropriate.
The v10 release notes will need to call this out as a significant
source-code change. It's likely that it will be a bug fix for
extension callers too, but if not, they'll need to change to using
ShmemAllocNoError().
This is nominally a bug fix, but the odds that it's fixing any live
bug are actually rather small, because in general the requests
being made by the unchecked callers were already accounted for in
determining the overall shmem size, so really they ought not fail.
Between that and the possible impact on extensions, no back-patch.

The hack embodied in commit 4ba61a487 no longer works after today's change
to allow DatumGetFloat4/Float4GetDatum to be inlined (commit 14cca1bf8).
Probably what's happening is that the faulty compilers are deciding that
the now-inlined assignment is a no-op and so they're not required to
round to float4 width.
We had a bunch of similar issues earlier this year in the degree-based
trig functions, and eventually settled on using volatile intermediate
variables as the least ugly method of forcing recalcitrant compilers
to do what the C standard says (cf commit 82311bcdd). Let's see if
that method works here.

Now that we are OK with using static inline functions, we can use them
to avoid function call overhead of pass-by-val versions of Float4GetDatum,
DatumGetFloat8, and Float8GetDatum. Those functions are only a few CPU
instructions long, but they could not be written into macros previously,
because we need a local union variable for the conversion.
I kept the pass-by-ref versions as regular functions. They are very simple
too, but they call palloc() anyway, so shaving a few instructions from the
function call doesn't seem so important there.

Where possible, use palloc or pg_malloc instead; otherwise, insert
explicit NULL checks.
Generally speaking, these are places where an actual OOM is quite
unlikely, either because they're in client programs that don't

so that we'd likely have had a fork() failure instead. Hence,
no back-patch, even though this is nominally a bug fix.

I found that half a dozen (nearly 5%) of our AllocSetContextCreate calls
had typos in the context-sizing parameters. While none of these led to
especially significant problems, they did create minor inefficiencies,
and it's now clear that expecting people to copy-and-paste those calls
accurately is not a great idea. Let's reduce the risk of future errors
by introducing single macros that encapsulate the common use-cases.
Three such macros are enough to cover all but two special-purpose contexts;
those two calls can be left as-is, I think.
While this patch doesn't in itself improve matters for third-party
extensions, it doesn't break anything for them either, and they can
gradually adopt the simplified notation over time.
In passing, change TopMemoryContext to use the default allocation
parameters. Formerly it could only be extended 8K at a time. That was
probably reasonable when this code was written; but nowadays we create
many more contexts than we did then, so that it's not unusual to have a
couple hundred K in TopMemoryContext, even without considering various
dubious code that sticks other things there. There seems no good reason
not to let it use growing blocks like most other contexts.

This has been requested a few times, but the use-case for it was never
entirely clear. The reason for adding it now is that transmission of
error reports from parallel workers fails when NLS is active, because
pq_parse_errornotice() wrongly assumes that the existing severity field
is nonlocalized. There are other ways we could have fixed that, but the
other options were basically kluges, whereas this way provides something
that's at least arguably a useful feature along with the bug fix.
Per report from Jakob Egger. Back-patch into 9.6, because otherwise
parallel query is essentially unusable in non-English locales. The
problem exists in 9.5 as well, but we don't want to risk changing
on-the-wire behavior in 9.5 (even though the possibility of new error
fields is specifically called out in the protocol document). It may
be sufficient to leave the issue unfixed in 9.5, given the very limited
usefulness of pq_parse_errornotice in that version.

HandleParallelMessages leaked memory into the caller's context. Since it's
called from ProcessInterrupts, there is basically zero certainty as to what
CurrentMemoryContext is, which means we could be leaking into long-lived
contexts. Over the processing of many worker messages that would grow to
be a problem. Things could be even worse than just a leak, if we happened
to service the interrupt while ErrorContext is current: elog.c thinks it
can reset that on its own whim, possibly yanking storage out from under
HandleParallelMessages.
Give HandleParallelMessages its own dedicated context instead, which we can
reset during each call to ensure there's no accumulation of wasted memory.

Copy the palloc'd strings into the correct context, ie ErrorContext

EmitErrorReport or CopyErrorData before doing anything that would

Per code reading induced by Jakob Egger's report.
The previous coding here was capable of adding a "parallel worker" context
line to errors that were not, in fact, returned from a parallel worker.
Instead of using an errcontext callback to add that annotation, just paste

ExecReScanAgg's check for whether it could re-use a previously calculated
hashtable neglected the possibility that the Agg node might reference
PARAM_EXEC Params that are not referenced by its input plan node. That's
okay if the Params are in upper tlist or qual expressions; but if one
appears in aggregate input expressions, then the hashtable contents need
to be recomputed when the Param's value changes.
To avoid unnecessary performance degradation in the case of a Param that
isn't within an aggregate input, add logic to the planner to determine
which Params are within aggregate inputs. This requires a new field in
struct Agg, but fortunately we never write plans to disk, so this isn't

Previously, the spgSplitTuple action could only create a new upper tuple
containing a single labeled node. This made it useless for opclasses
that prefer to work with fixed sets of nodes (labeled or otherwise),
which meant that restrictive prefixes could not be used with such
node definitions. Change the output field set for the choose() method
to allow it to specify any valid node set for the new upper tuple,
and to specify which of these nodes to place the modified lower tuple in.
In addition to its primary use for fixed node sets, this feature could
allow existing opclasses that use variable node sets to skip a separate
spgAddNode action when splitting a tuple, by setting up the node needed
for the incoming value as part of the spgSplitTuple action. However, care
would have to be taken to add the extra node only when it would not make
the tuple bigger than before. (spgAddNode can enlarge the tuple,
spgSplitTuple can't.)
This is a prerequisite for an upcoming SP-GiST inet opclass, but is
being committed separately to increase the visibility of the API change.

Due to an error in the abbreviated key abort logic, the most recently

In the worst case, this could result in a corrupt btree index, which

abort very often, not all data types use it, and only one tuple would
end up in the wrong place, so the practical impact of this mistake may

We need to scan the whole parse tree for parallel-unsafe functions.
If there are none, we'll later need to determine whether particular
subtrees contain any parallel-restricted functions. The previous coding
retained no knowledge from the first scan, even though this is very
wasteful in the common case where the query contains only parallel-safe
functions. We can bypass all of the later scans by remembering that fact.
This provides a small but measurable speed improvement when the case

Backpatch to 9.4, where this code was introduced.
pcolor was used to represent function arguments that are nominally of
type color, but when using a pre-ANSI C compiler would be passed as the
promoted integer type. We really don't need that anymore.
The regex library used to have a notion of a "collating element" that was
distinct from a "character", but Henry Spencer never actually implemented
his planned support for multi-character collating elements, and the Tcl
crew ripped out most of the stubs for that years ago. The only thing left
that distinguished the "celt" typedef from the "chr" typedef was that
"celt" was supposed to also be able to hold the not-a-character "NOCELT"
value. However, NOCELT was not used anywhere after the MCCE stub removal
changes, which means there's no need for celt to be different from chr.
Removing the separate typedef simplifies matters and also removes a trap
for the unwary, in that celt is signed while chr may not be, so comparisons
could mean different things. There's no bug there today because we
restrict CHR_MAX to be less than INT_MAX, but I think there may have been
such bugs before we did that, and there could be again if anyone ever
decides to fool with the range of chr.
This patch also removes assorted unnecessary casts to "chr" of values
that are already chrs. Many of these seem to be leftover from days when
the code was compatible with pre-ANSI C.
All we need is 4 bytes at the moment, for MD5 authentication. But in
upcomint patches for SCRAM authentication, SCRAM will need a salt of
different length. It's less scary for the caller to pass the buffer
length anyway, than assume a certain-sized output buffer.
