2025-03-26Use PG_MODULE_MAGIC_EXT in our installable shared libraries.Tom Lane
It seems potentially useful to label our shared libraries with version information, now that a facility exists for retrieving that. This patch labels them with the PG_VERSION string. There was some discussion about using semantic versioning conventions, but that doesn't seem terribly helpful for modules with no SQL-level presence; and for those that do have SQL objects, we typically expect them to support multiple revisions of the SQL definitions, so it'd still not be very helpful. I did not label any of src/test/modules/. It seems unnecessary since we don't install those, and besides there ought to be someplace that still provides test coverage for the original PG_MODULE_MAGIC macro.

2025-02-12Remove unnecessary (char *) casts [mem]Peter Eisentraut
Remove (char *) casts around memory functions such as memcmp(), memcpy(), or memset() where the cast is useless. Since these functions don't take char * arguments anyway, these casts are at best complicated casts to (void *), about which see commit 7f798aca1d5.

2024-09-24Neaten up our choices of SQLSTATEs for XML-related errors.Tom Lane
When our XML-handling modules were first written, the SQL standard lacked any error codes that were particularly intended for XML error conditions. Unsurprisingly, this led to some rather random choices of errcodes in those modules. Now the standard has a whole SQLSTATE class, "Class 10 - XQuery Error", with a reasonably large selection of relevant-looking errcodes. In this patch I've chosen one fairly generic code defined by the standard, 10608 = invalid_argument_for_xquery, and used it where it seemed appropriate. I've also made an effort to replace ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR everywhere it was not clearly reporting a coding problem; in particular, many of the existing uses look like they can fairly be reported as ERRCODE_OUT_OF_MEMORY. It might be interesting to try to map libxml2's error codes into the standard's new collection, but I've not undertaken that here. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/417250.1726341268@sss.pgh.pa.us
2024-09-15Replace usages of xmlXPathCompile() with xmlXPathCtxtCompile().Tom Lane
In existing releases of libxml2, xmlXPathCompile can be driven to stack overflow because it fails to protect itself against too-deeply-nested input. While there is an upstream fix as of yesterday, it will take years for that to propagate into all shipping versions. In the meantime, we can protect our own usages basically for free by calling xmlXPathCtxtCompile instead. (The actual bug is that libxml2 keeps its nesting counter in the xmlXPathContext, and its parsing code was willing to just skip counting nesting levels if it didn't have a context. So if we supply a context, all is well. It seems odd actually that it works at all to not supply a context, because this means that XPath parsing does not have access to XML namespace info. Apparently libxml2 never checks namespaces until runtime? Anyway, this seems like good future-proofing even if its only immediate effect is to dodge a bug.) Sadly, this hack only offers protection with libxml2 2.9.11 and newer. Before that there are multiple similar problems, so if you are processing untrusted XML it behooves you to get a newer version. But we have some pretty old libxml2 in the buildfarm, so it seems impractical to add a regression test to verify this fix. Per bug #18617 from Jingzhou Fu. Back-patch to all supported versions.

2024-09-09Don't bother checking the result of SPI_connect[_ext] anymore.Tom Lane
SPI_connect/SPI_connect_ext have not returned any value other than SPI_OK_CONNECT since commit 1833f1a1c in v10; any errors are thrown via ereport. (The most likely failure is out-of-memory, which has always been thrown that way, so callers had better be prepared for such errors.) This makes it somewhat pointless to check these functions' result, and some callers within our code haven't been bothering; indeed, the only usage example within spi.sgml doesn't bother. So it's likely that the omission has propagated into extensions too. Hence, let's standardize on not checking, and document the return value as historical, while not actually changing these functions' behavior. (The original proposal was to change their return type to "void", but that would needlessly break extensions that are conforming to the old practice.) This saves a small amount of boilerplate code in a lot of places. Stepan Neretin Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAMaYL5Z9Uk8cD9qGz9QaZ2UBJFOu7jFx5Mwbznz-1tBbPDQZow@mail.gmail.com
2024-01-29Fix incompatibilities with libxml2 >= 2.12.0.Tom Lane
libxml2 changed the required signature of error handler callbacks to make the passed xmlError struct "const". This is causing build failures on buildfarm member caiman, and no doubt will start showing up in the field quite soon. Add a version check to adjust the declaration of xml_errorHandler() according to LIBXML_VERSION. 2.12.x also produces deprecation warnings for contrib/xml2/xpath.c's assignment to xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue. I see no good reason for that to still be there, seeing that we disabled external DTDs (at a lower level) years ago for security reasons. Let's just remove it. Back-patch to all supported branches, since they might all get built with newer libxml2 once it gets a bit more popular. (The back branches produce another deprecation warning about xpath.c's use of xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault(). We ought to consider whether to back-patch all or part of commit 65c5864d7 to silence that. It's less urgent though, since it won't break the buildfarm.)

2024-01-26Revert "Add support for parsing of large XML data (>= 10MB)"Michael Paquier
This reverts commit 2197d06224a1, following a discussion over a Coverity report where issues like the "Billion laugh attack" could cause the backend to waste CPU and memory even if a client applied checks on the size of the data given in input, and libxml2 does not offer guarantees that input limits are respected under XML_PARSE_HUGE. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/ZbHlgrPLtBZyr_QW@paquier.xyz
2024-01-17Add support for parsing of large XML data (>= 10MB)Michael Paquier
This commit adds XML_PARSE_HUGE to the libxml2 functions used in core for the parsing of XML objects, raising up the original limit of 10MB supported by libxml2. In most code paths of upstream, XML_MAX_TEXT_LENGTH (10^7) is the historical limit that gets upgraded to XML_MAX_HUGE_LENGTH (10^9) once XML_PARSE_HUGE is given to the parser calls. These are still limited by any palloc() calls for text, up to 1GB. This offers the possibility to handle within the backend XML objects larger than 10MB in general, with also a higher depth limit. This change affects the contrib module xml2, the xml data type and SQL/XML.

2024-01-16xml2: Replace deprecated routines with recommended onesMichael Paquier
Some functions are used in the tree and are currently marked as deprecated by upstream. This commit refreshes the code to use the recommended functions, leading to the following changes: - xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault() is gone, and needs to be replaced with XML_PARSE_NOENT for the paths doing the parsing. - xmlParseMemory() -> xmlReadMemory(). These functions, as well as more functions setting global states, have been officially marked as deprecated by upstream in August 2022. Their replacements exist since the 2001-ish area, as far as I have checked, so that should be safe. Author: Dmitry Koval Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18274-98d16bc03520665f@postgresql.org
2022-10-18Rename SetSingleFuncCall() to InitMaterializedSRF()Michael Paquier
Per discussion, the existing routine name able to initialize a SRF function with materialize mode is unpopular, so rename it. Equally, the flags of this function are renamed, as of: - SRF_SINGLE_USE_EXPECTED -> MAT_SRF_USE_EXPECTED_DESC - SRF_SINGLE_BLESS -> MAT_SRF_BLESS The previous function and flags introduced in 9e98583 are kept around for compatibility purposes, so as any extension code already compiled with v15 continues to work as-is. The declarations introduced here for compatibility will be removed from HEAD in a follow-up commit. The new names have been suggested by Andres Freund and Melanie Plageman.

2022-03-08Simplify SRFs using materialize mode in contrib/ modulesMichael Paquier
9e98583 introduced a helper to centralize building their needed state (tuplestore, tuple descriptors, etc.), checking for any errors. This commit updates all places of contrib/ that can be switched to use SetSingleFuncCall() as a drop-in replacement, resulting in the removal of a lot of boilerplate code in all the modules updated by this commit. Per analysis, some places remain as they are: - pg_logdir_ls() in adminpack/ uses historically TYPEFUNC_RECORD as return type, and I suspect that changing it may cause issues at run-time with some of its past versions, down to 1.0. - dblink/ uses a wrapper function doing exactly the work of SetSingleFuncCall(). Here the switch should be possible, but rather invasive so it does not seem the extra backpatch maintenance cost. - tablefunc/, similarly, uses multiple helper functions with portions of SetSingleFuncCall() spread across the code paths of this module.

2022-02-17Remove all traces of tuplestore_donestoring() in the C codeMichael Paquier
This routine is a no-op since dd04e95 from 2003, with a macro kept around for compatibility purposes. This has led to the same code patterns being copy-pasted around for no effect, sometimes in confusing ways like in pg_logical_slot_get_changes_guts() from logical.c where the code was actually incorrect. This issue has been discussed on two different threads recently, so rather than living with this legacy, remove any uses of this routine in the C code to simplify things. The compatibility macro is kept to avoid breaking any out-of-core modules that depend on it.

2022-02-14Delete contrib/xml2's legacy implementation of xml_is_well_formed().Tom Lane
This function is unreferenced in modern usage; it was superseded in 9.1 by a core function of the same name. It has been left in place in the C code only so that pre-9.1 SQL definitions of the contrib/xml2 functions would continue to work. Eleven years seems like enough time for people to have updated to the extension-style version of the xml2 module, so let's drop this. We did this once before, in 20540710e, and then reverted it because the intended change of PGDLLEXPORT markings didn't happen. This time the reason is to suppress link-time duplicate-symbol warnings on AIX. That's not worth a lot perhaps, but the value of keeping this function has surely dropped to about zero by now.

2019-05-22Phase 2 pgindent run for v12.Tom Lane

2017-06-21Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane
Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

2017-06-21Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

2017-06-21Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.Tom Lane
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak. The main changes visible in this commit are: * Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations. * No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts, sizeof, or offsetof. * No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers. * Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely. * Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed with no space separating them from the code. * Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels. * Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less than the expected column 33. On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in indent itself. There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the changes as much as practical.

2017-03-12Use wrappers of PG_DETOAST_DATUM_PACKED() more.Noah Misch
This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the previous commit. Specific decisions: - Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt maintainers of non-core text search code will notice. - Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return values of SendFunctionCall(). - Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment. - For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside GBT_VARKEY, on disk. - For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple credible implementation strategies to consider.

Six years seems like enough time for people to have updated to the extension-style version of the xml2 module, so let's drop this. The key reason for not keeping it any longer is that we want to stick an explicit PGDLLEXPORT into PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(), and the similarity of name to the core function creates a conflict that compilers will complain about. Extracted from a larger patch for that purpose. I'm committing this change separately to give it more visibility in the commit logs.

2016-03-12Widen query numbers-of-tuples-processed counters to uint64.Tom Lane
This patch widens SPI_processed, EState's es_processed field, PortalData's portalPos field, FuncCallContext's call_cntr and max_calls fields, ExecutorRun's count argument, PortalRunFetch's result, and the max number of rows in a SPITupleTable to uint64, and deals with (I hope) all the ensuing fallout. Some of these values were declared uint32 before, and others "long". I also removed PortalData's posOverflow field, since that logic seems pretty useless given that portalPos is now always 64 bits. The user-visible results are that command tags for SELECT etc will correctly report tuple counts larger than 4G, as will plpgsql's GET GET DIAGNOSTICS ... ROW_COUNT command. Queries processing more tuples than that are still not exactly the norm, but they're becoming more common. Most values associated with FETCH/MOVE distances, such as PortalRun's count argument and the count argument of most SPI functions that have one, remain declared as "long". It's not clear whether it would be worth promoting those to int64; but it would definitely be a large dollop of additional API churn on top of this, and it would only help 32-bit platforms which seem relatively less likely to see any benefit.

2015-01-24Replace a bunch more uses of strncpy() with safer coding.Tom Lane
strncpy() has a well-deserved reputation for being unsafe, so make an effort to get rid of nearly all occurrences in HEAD. A large fraction of the remaining uses were passing length less than or equal to the known strlen() of the source, in which case no null-padding can occur and the behavior is equivalent to memcpy(), though doubtless slower and certainly harder to reason about. So just use memcpy() in these cases. In other cases, use either StrNCpy() or strlcpy() as appropriate (depending on whether padding to the full length of the destination buffer seems useful). I left a few strncpy() calls alone in the src/timezone/ code, to keep it in sync with upstream (the IANA tzcode distribution). There are also a few such calls in ecpg that could possibly do with more analysis. AFAICT, none of these changes are more than cosmetic, except for the four occurrences in fe-secure-openssl.c, which are in fact buggy: an overlength source leads to a non-null-terminated destination buffer and ensuing misbehavior. These don't seem like security issues, first because no stack clobber is possible and second because if your values of sslcert etc are coming from untrusted sources then you've got problems way worse than this. Still, it's undesirable to have unpredictable behavior for overlength inputs, so back-patch those four changes to all active branches.

2014-04-18Create function prototype as part of PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macroPeter Eisentraut
Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files, but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant. Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of compiler warnings in extension modules. We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that functions have the right prototype. Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.
2012-08-30Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera
This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.

2011-07-20Rewrite libxml error handling to be more robust.Tom Lane
libxml reports some errors (like invalid xmlns attributes) via the error handler hook, but still returns a success indicator to the library caller. This causes us to miss some errors that are important to report. Since the "generic" error handler hook doesn't know whether the message it's getting is for an error, warning, or notice, stop using that and instead start using the "structured" error handler hook, which gets enough information to be useful. While at it, arrange to save and restore the error handler hook setting in each libxml-using function, rather than assuming we can set and forget the hook. This should improve the odds of working nicely with third-party libraries that also use libxml. In passing, volatile-ize some local variables that get modified within PG_TRY blocks. I noticed this while testing with an older gcc version than I'd previously tried to compile xml.c with. Florian Pflug and Tom Lane, with extensive review/testing by Noah Misch

2010-03-03Make contrib/xml2 use core xml.c's error handler, when available (that is,Tom Lane
in versions >= 8.3). The core code is more robust and efficient than what was there before, and this also reduces risks involved in swapping different libxml error handler settings. Before 8.3, there is still some risk of problems if add-on modules such as Perl invoke libxml without setting their own error handler. Given the lack of reports I'm not sure there's a risk in practice, so I didn't take the step of actually duplicating the core code into older contrib/xml2 branches. Instead I just tweaked the existing code to ensure it didn't leave a dangling pointer to short-lived memory when throwing an error.
2010-03-01Remove xmlCleanupParser calls from contrib/xml2.Tom Lane
These are unnecessary and probably dangerous. I don't see any immediate risk situations in the core XML support or contrib/xml2 itself, but there could be issues with external uses of libxml2, and in any case it's an accident waiting to happen.
2010-02-28Fix up memory management problems in contrib/xml2.Tom Lane
Get rid of the code that attempted to funnel libxml2's memory allocations into palloc. We already knew from experience with the core xml datatype that trying to do this is simply not reliable. Unlike the core code, I did not bother adding a lot of PG_TRY/PG_CATCH logic to try to ensure that everything is cleaned up on error exit. Hence, we might leak some memory if one of these functions fails partway through. Given the deprecated status of this contrib module and the fact that errors partway through the functions shouldn't be too common, it doesn't seem worth worrying about. Also fix a separate bug in xpath_table, that it did the wrong things if given a result tuple descriptor with less than 2 columns. While such a case isn't very useful in practice, we shouldn't fail or stomp memory when it occurs. Add some simple regression tests based on all the reported crash cases that I have on hand. This should be back-patched, but let's see if the buildfarm likes it first.

2009-01-07Fix executor/spi.h to follow our usual conventions for include files, ie,Tom Lane
not include postgres.h nor anything else it doesn't directly need. Add #includes to calling files as needed to compensate. Per my proposal of yesterday. This should be noted as a source code change in the 8.4 release notes, since it's likely to require changes in add-on modules.
2008-10-29Be more tense about not creating tuplestores with randomAccess = true unlessTom Lane
backwards scan could actually happen. In particular, pass a flag to materialize-mode SRFs that tells them whether they need to require random access. In passing, also suppress unneeded backward-scan overhead for a Portal's holdStore tuplestore. Per my proposal about reducing I/O costs for tuplestores.
2008-05-17Add $PostgreSQL$ markers to a lot of files that were missing them.Andrew Dunstan
This particular batch was just for *.c and *.h file. The changes were made with the following 2 commands: find . \( \( -name 'libstemmer' -o -name 'expected' -o -name 'ppport.h' \) -prune \) -o \( -name '*.[ch]' \) \( -exec grep -q '\$PostgreSQL' {} \; -o -print \) | while read file ; do head -n 1 < $file | grep -q '^/\*' && echo $file; done | xargs -l sed -i -e '1s/^\// /' -e '1i/*\n * $PostgreSQL:$ \n *' find . \( \( -name 'libstemmer' -o -name 'expected' -o -name 'ppport.h' \) -prune \) -o \( -name '*.[ch]' \) \( -exec grep -q '\$PostgreSQL' {} \; -o -print \) | xargs -l sed -i -e '1i/*\n * $PostgreSQL:$ \n */'
2008-05-04Use new cstring/text conversion functions in some additional places.Tom Lane
These changes assume that the varchar and xml data types are represented the same as text. (I did not, however, accept the portions of the proposed patch that wanted to assume bytea is the same as text --- tgl.) Brendan Jurd
2008-03-26Fix core dump in contrib/xml2's xpath_table() when the input query returnsTom Lane
a NULL value. Per bug #4058.
2008-03-25Simplify and standardize conversions between TEXT datums and ordinary CTom Lane
strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text, cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed. Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin, and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though). This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few places where it was easy, but much more could be done. Brendan Jurd and Tom Lane
2007-07-15Fix a passel of signed vs unsigned char warnings.Tom Lane
2007-02-27Replace direct assignments to VARATT_SIZEP(x) with SET_VARSIZE(x, len).Tom Lane
Get rid of VARATT_SIZE and VARATT_DATA, which were simply redundant with VARSIZE and VARDATA, and as a consequence almost no code was using the longer names. Rename the length fields of struct varlena and various derived structures to catch anyplace that was accessing them directly; and clean up various places so caught. In itself this patch doesn't change any behavior at all, but it is necessary infrastructure if we hope to play any games with the representation of varlena headers. Greg Stark and Tom Lane
