Some of the functions in regex compilation and execution recurse, and therefore could in principle be driven to stack overflow. The Tcl crew has seen this happen in practice in duptraverse(), though their fix was to put in a hard-wired limit on the number of recursive levels, which is not too appetizing --- fortunately, we have enough infrastructure to check the actually available stack. Greg Stark has also seen it in other places while fuzz testing on a machine with limited stack space. Let's put guards in to prevent crashes in all these places. Since the regex code would leak memory if we simply threw elog(ERROR), we have to introduce an API that checks for stack depth without throwing such an error. Fortunately that's not difficult. |

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. 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/.
