This oversight could result in a tuplestore using much more than the intended amount of memory. It would only happen in a code path that loaded a tuplestore via tuplestore_putvalues(), and many of those won't emit huge amounts of data; but cases such as holdable cursors and plpgsql's RETURN NEXT command could have the problem. The fix ensures that the tuplestore will switch to write-to-disk mode when it overruns work_mem. The potential overrun was finite, because we would still count the space used by the tuple pointer array, so the tuplestore code would eventually flip into write-to-disk mode anyway. When storing wide tuples we would go far past the expected work_mem usage before that happened; but this may account for the lack of prior reports. Back-patch to 8.4, where tuplestore_putvalues was introduced. Per bug #6061 from Yann Delorme. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
