DecodeInterval (interval input) was careless about integer-overflow hazards, allowing bogus results to be obtained for sufficiently large input values. Also, since it initially converted the input to a "struct tm", it was impossible to produce the full range of representable interval values. Meanwhile, EncodeInterval (interval output) and a few other functions could suffer failures if asked to process sufficiently large interval values, because they also relied on being able to represent an interval in "struct tm" which is not designed to handle that. Fix all this stuff by introducing new struct types that are more fit for purpose. While this is clearly a bug fix, it's also an API break for any code that's calling these functions directly. So back-patching doesn't seem wise, especially in view of the lack of field complaints.

PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see which tests get run automatically. authentication/ Tests for authentication (but see also below) examples/ Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via "make check" isolation/ Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level kerberos/ Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption ldap/ Tests for LDAP-based authentication locale/ Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc mb/ Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support modules/ Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable for installing in production databases perl/ Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests recovery/ Test suite for recovery and replication regress/ PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress ssl/ Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling subscription/ Tests for logical replication
