2025-05-28Tighten parsing of datetime input.Tom Lane
ParseFraction only expects to deal with fields that contain a decimal point and digit(s). However it's possible in some edge cases for it to be passed input that doesn't look like that. In particular the input could look like a valid floating-point number, such as ".123e6". strtod() will happily eat that, possibly producing a result that is not within the expected range 0..1, which can result in integer overflow in the callers. That doesn't have any security consequences, but it's still not very desirable. Fix by checking that the input has the expected form. Similarly, DecodeNumberField only expects to deal with fields that contain a decimal point and digit(s), but it's sometimes abused to parse strings that might not look like that. This could result in failure to reject bogus input, yielding silly results. Again, fix by rejecting input that doesn't look as-expected. That decision also means that we can affirmatively answer the very old comment questioning whether we couldn't save some duplicative code by using ParseFractionalSecond here. While these changes should only reject input that nobody would consider valid, it still doesn't seem like a change to make in stable branches. Apply to HEAD only.

2025-01-16Seek zone abbreviations in the IANA data before timezone_abbreviations.Tom Lane
If a time zone abbreviation used in datetime input is defined in the currently active timezone, use that definition in preference to looking in the timezone_abbreviations list. That allows us to correctly handle abbreviations that have different meanings in different timezones. Also, it eliminates an inconsistency between datetime input and datetime output: the non-ISO datestyles for timestamptz have always printed abbreviations taken from the IANA data, not from timezone_abbreviations. Before this fix, it was possible to demonstrate cases where casting a timestamp to text and back fails or changes the value significantly because of that inconsistency. While this change removes the ability to override the IANA data about an abbreviation known in the current zone, it's not clear that there's any real use-case for doing so. But it is clear that this makes life a lot easier for dealing with abbreviations that have conflicts across different time zones. Also update the pg_timezone_abbrevs view to report abbreviations that are recognized via the IANA data, and *not* report any timezone_abbreviations entries that are thereby overridden. Under the hood, there are now two SRFs, one that pulls the IANA data and one that pulls timezone_abbreviations entries. They're combined by logic in the view. This approach was useful for debugging (since the functions can be called on their own). While I don't intend to document the functions explicitly, they might be useful to call directly. Also improve DecodeTimezoneAbbrev's caching logic so that it can cache zone abbreviations found in the IANA data. Without that, this patch would have caused a noticeable degradation of the runtime of timestamptz_in. Per report from Aleksander Alekseev and additional investigation.

2024-05-22Fix input of ISO "extended" time format for types time and timetz.Tom Lane
Commit 3e1a373e2 missed teaching DecodeTimeOnly the same "ptype" manipulations it added to DecodeDateTime. While likely harmless at the time, it became a problem after 5b3c59535 added an error check that ptype must be zero once we exit the parsing loop (that is, there shouldn't be any unused prefixes). The consequence was that we'd reject time or timetz input like T12:34:56 (the "extended" format per ISO 8601-1:2019), even though that still worked in timestamp input. Since this is clearly under-tested code, add test cases covering all the ISO 8601 time formats. (Note: although 8601 allows just "Thh", we have never accepted that, and this patch doesn't change that. I'm content to leave that as-is because it seems too likely to be a mistake rather than intended input. If anyone wants to allow that, it should be a separate patch anyway, and not back-patched.)

2024-03-04Remove unused #include's from backend .c filesPeter Eisentraut
as determined by include-what-you-use (IWYU) While IWYU also suggests to *add* a bunch of #include's (which is its main purpose), this patch does not do that. In some cases, a more specific #include replaces another less specific one. Some manual adjustments of the automatic result: - IWYU currently doesn't know about includes that provide global variable declarations (like -Wmissing-variable-declarations), so those includes are being kept manually. - All includes for port(ability) headers are being kept for now, to play it safe. - No changes of catalog/pg_foo.h to catalog/pg_foo_d.h, to keep the patch from exploding in size. Note that this patch touches just *.c files, so nothing declared in header files changes in hidden ways. As a small example, in src/backend/access/transam/rmgr.c, some IWYU pragma annotations are added to handle a special case there.

2024-01-25Support TZ and OF format codes in to_timestamp().Tom Lane
Formerly, these were only supported in to_char(), but there seems little reason for that restriction. We should at least have enough support to permit round-tripping the output of to_char(). In that spirit, TZ accepts either zone abbreviations or numeric (HH or HH:MM) offsets, which are the cases that to_char() can output. In an ideal world we'd make it take full zone names too, but that seems like it'd introduce an unreasonable amount of ambiguity, since the rules for POSIX-spec zone names are so lax. OF is a subset of this, accepting only HH or HH:MM. One small benefit of this improvement is that we can simplify jsonpath's executeDateTimeMethod function, which no longer needs to consider the HH and HH:MM cases separately. Moreover, letting it accept zone abbreviations means it will accept "Z" to mean UTC, which is emitted by JSON.stringify() for example.

2023-11-14Support +/- infinity in the interval data type.Dean Rasheed
This adds support for infinity to the interval data type, using the same input/output representation as the other date/time data types that support infinity. This allows various arithmetic operations on infinite dates, timestamps and intervals. The new values are represented by setting all fields of the interval to INT32/64_MIN for -infinity, and INT32/64_MAX for +infinity. This ensures that they compare as less/greater than all other interval values, without the need for any special-case comparison code. Note that, since those 2 values were formerly accepted as legal finite intervals, pg_upgrade and dump/restore from an old database will turn them from finite to infinite intervals. That seems OK, since those exact values should be extremely rare in practice, and they are outside the documented range supported by the interval type, which gives us a certain amount of leeway. Bump catalog version. Joseph Koshakow, Jian He, and Ashutosh Bapat, reviewed by me.

2023-03-16Tighten error checks in datetime input, and remove bogus "ISO" format.Tom Lane
DecodeDateTime and DecodeTimeOnly had support for date input in the style "Y2023M03D16", which the comments claimed to be an "ISO" format. However, so far as I can find there is no such format in ISO 8601; they write units before numbers in intervals, but not in datetimes. Furthermore, the lesser-known ISO 8601-2 spec actually defines an incompatible format "2023Y03M16D". None of our documentation mentions such a format either. So let's just drop it. That leaves us with only two cases for a prefix unit specifier in datetimes: Julian dates written as Jnnnn, and the "T" separator defined by ISO 8601. Add checks to catch misuse of these specifiers, that is consecutive specifiers or a dangling specifier at the end of the string. We do not however disallow a specifier that is separated from the field that it disambiguates (by noise words or unrelated fields). That being the case, remove some overly-aggressive error checks from the ISOTIME cases. Joseph Koshakow, editorialized a bit by me; thanks also to Peter Eisentraut for some standards-reading.

2023-02-20Fix parsing of ISO-8601 interval fields with exponential notation.Tom Lane
Historically we've accepted interval input like 'P.1e10D'. This is probably an accident of having used strtod() to do the parsing, rather than something anyone intended, but it's been that way for a long time. Commit e39f99046 broke this by trying to parse the integer and fractional parts separately, without accounting for the possibility of an exponent. In principle that coding allowed for precise conversions of field values wider than 15 decimal digits, but that does not seem like a goal worth sweating bullets for. So, rather than trying to manage an exponent on top of the existing complexity, let's just revert to the previous coding that used strtod() by itself. We can still improve on the old code to the extent of allowing the value to range up to 1.0e15 rather than only INT_MAX. (Allowing more than that risks creating problems due to precision loss: the converted fractional part might have absolute value more than 1. Perhaps that could be dealt with in some way, but it really does not seem worth additional effort.) Per bug #17795 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v15 where the faulty code came in.

2022-12-09Allow DateTimeParseError to handle bad-timezone error messages.Tom Lane
Pay down some ancient technical debt (dating to commit 022fd9966): fix a couple of places in datetime parsing that were throwing ereport's immediately instead of returning a DTERR code that could be interpreted by DateTimeParseError. The reason for that was that there was no mechanism for passing any auxiliary data (such as a zone name) to DateTimeParseError, and these errors seemed to really need it. Up to now it didn't matter that much just where the error got thrown, but now we'd like to have a hard policy that datetime parse errors get thrown from just the one place. Hence, invent a "DateTimeErrorExtra" struct that can be used to carry any extra values needed for specific DTERR codes. Perhaps in the future somebody will be motivated to use this to improve the specificity of other DateTimeParseError messages, but for now just deal with the timezone-error cases. This is on the way to making the datetime input functions report parse errors softly; but it's really an independent change, so commit separately.

2022-10-14Store GUC data in a memory context, instead of using malloc().Tom Lane
The only real argument for using malloc directly was that we needed the ability to not throw error on OOM; but mcxt.c grew that feature awhile ago. Keeping the data in a memory context improves accountability and debuggability --- for example, without this it's almost impossible to detect memory leaks in the GUC code with anything less costly than valgrind. Moreover, the next patch in this series will add a hash table for GUC lookup, and it'd be pretty silly to be using palloc-dependent hash facilities alongside malloc'd storage of the underlying data. This is a bit invasive though, in particular causing an API break for GUC check hooks that want to modify the GUC's value or use an "extra" data structure. They must now use guc_malloc() and guc_free() instead of malloc() and free(). Failure to change affected code will result in assertion failures or worse; but thanks to recent effort in the mcxt infrastructure, it shouldn't be too hard to diagnose such oversights (at least in assert-enabled builds). One note is that this changes ParseLongOption() to return short-lived palloc'd not malloc'd data. There wasn't any caller for which the previous definition was better.

2022-04-03Fix portability issues in datetime parsing.Tom Lane
datetime.c's parsing logic has assumed that strtod() will accept a string that looks like ".", which it does in glibc, but not on some less-common platforms such as AIX. The result of this was that datetime fields like "123." would be accepted on some platforms but not others; which is a sufficiently odd case that it's not that surprising we've heard no field complaints. But commit e39f99046 extended that assumption to new places, and happened to add a test case that exposed the platform dependency. Remove this dependency by special-casing situations without any digits after the decimal point. (Again, this is in part a pre-existing bug but I don't feel a compulsion to back-patch.)

2022-04-02Fix overflow hazards in interval input and output conversions.Tom Lane
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.

2022-03-07Create routine able to set single-call SRFs for Materialize modeMichael Paquier
Set-returning functions that use the Materialize mode, creating a tuplestore to include all the tuples returned in a set rather than doing so in multiple calls, use roughly the same set of steps to prepare ReturnSetInfo for this job: - Check if ReturnSetInfo supports returning a tuplestore and if the materialize mode is enabled. - Create a tuplestore for all the tuples part of the returned set in the per-query memory context, stored in ReturnSetInfo->setResult. - Build a tuple descriptor mostly from get_call_result_type(), then stored in ReturnSetInfo->setDesc. Note that there are some cases where the SRF's tuple descriptor has to be the one specified by the function caller. This refactoring is done so as there are (well, should be) no behavior changes in any of the in-core functions refactored, and the centralized function that checks and sets up the function's ReturnSetInfo can be controlled with a set of bits32 options. Two of them prove to be necessary now: - SRF_SINGLE_USE_EXPECTED to use expectedDesc as tuple descriptor, as expected by the function's caller. - SRF_SINGLE_BLESS to validate the tuple descriptor for the SRF. The same initialization pattern is simplified in 28 places per my count as of src/backend/, shaving up to ~900 lines of code. These mostly come from the removal of the per-query initializations and the sanity checks now grouped in a single location. There are more locations that could be simplified in contrib/, that are left for a follow-up cleanup. fcc2817, 07daca5 and d61a361 have prepared the areas of the code related to this change, to ease this refactoring.

2020-09-28Cache the result of converting now() to a struct pg_tm.Tom Lane
SQL operations such as CURRENT_DATE, CURRENT_TIME, LOCALTIME, and conversion of "now" in a datetime input string have to obtain the transaction start timestamp ("now()") as a broken-down struct pg_tm. This is a remarkably expensive conversion, and since now() does not change intra-transaction, it doesn't really need to be done more than once per transaction. Introducing a simple cache provides visible speedups in queries that compute these values many times, for example insertion of many rows that use a default value of CURRENT_DATE.

2020-06-29Mop up some no-longer-necessary hacks around printf %.*s format.Tom Lane
Commit 54cd4f045 added some kluges to work around an old glibc bug, namely that %.*s could misbehave if glibc thought any characters in the supplied string were incorrectly encoded. Now that we use our own snprintf.c implementation, we need not worry about that bug (even if it still exists in the wild). Revert a couple of particularly ugly hacks, and remove or improve assorted comments. Note that there can still be encoding-related hazards here: blindly clipping at a fixed length risks producing wrongly-encoded output if the clip splits a multibyte character. However, code that's doing correct multibyte-aware clipping doesn't really need a comment about that, while code that isn't needs an explanation why not, rather than a red-herring comment about an obsolete bug.

2020-06-04Reject "23:59:60.nnn" in datetime input.Tom Lane
It's intentional that we don't allow values greater than 24 hours, while we do allow "24:00:00" as well as "23:59:60" as inputs. However, the range check was miscoded in such a way that it would accept "23:59:60.nnn" with a nonzero fraction. For time or timetz, the stored result would then be greater than "24:00:00" which would fail dump/reload, not to mention possibly confusing other operations. Fix by explicitly calculating the result and making sure it does not exceed 24 hours. (This calculation is redundant with what will happen later in tm2time or tm2timetz. Maybe someday somebody will find that annoying enough to justify refactoring to avoid the duplication; but that seems too invasive for a back-patched bug fix, and the cost is probably unmeasurable anyway.) Note that this change also rejects such input as the time portion of a timestamp(tz) value. Back-patch to v10. The bug is far older, but to change this pre-v10 we'd need to ensure that the logic behaves sanely with float timestamps, which is possibly nontrivial due to roundoff considerations. Doesn't really seem worth troubling with. Per report from Christoph Berg. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]
2020-05-16Run pgindent with new pg_bsd_indent version 2.1.1.Tom Lane
Thomas Munro fixed a longstanding annoyance in pg_bsd_indent, that it would misformat lines containing IsA() macros on the assumption that the IsA() call should be treated like a cast. This improves some other cases involving field/variable names that match typedefs, too. The only places that get worse are a couple of uses of the OpenSSL macro STACK_OF(); we'll gladly take that trade-off. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]
2020-05-14Initial pgindent and pgperltidy run for v13.Tom Lane
Includes some manual cleanup of places that pgindent messed up, most of which weren't per project style anyway. Notably, it seems some people didn't absorb the style rules of commit c9d297751, because there were a bunch of new occurrences of function calls with a newline just after the left paren, all with faulty expectations about how the rest of the call would get indented.
2020-03-17Avoid holding a directory FD open across assorted SRF calls.Tom Lane
This extends the fixes made in commit 085b6b667 to other SRFs with the same bug, namely pg_logdir_ls(), pgrowlocks(), pg_timezone_names(), pg_ls_dir(), and pg_tablespace_databases(). Also adjust various comments and documentation to warn against expecting to clean up resources during a ValuePerCall SRF's final call. Back-patch to all supported branches, since these functions were all born broken. Justin Pryzby, with cosmetic tweaks by me Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]
2020-02-01Optimizations for integer to decimal output.Andrew Gierth
Using a lookup table of digit pairs reduces the number of divisions needed, and calculating the length upfront saves some work; these ideas are taken from the code previously committed for floats.
