Tom Lane	643bb8125c	Back-patch removal of extraneous semicolon, so that this will build ... with recent bisons (if anyone still cares).	21 years ago
Tom Lane	6452043ec8	Stamp release 7.2.6.	21 years ago
Tom Lane	6acddf56b4	Prevent pg_ctl from being run as root. Since it uses configuration files ... owned by postgres, doing "pg_ctl start" as root could allow a privilege escalation attack, as pointed out by iDEFENSE. Of course the postmaster would fail, but we ought to fail a little sooner to protect sysadmins unfamiliar with Postgres. The chosen fix is to disable root use of pg_ctl in all cases, just to be confident there are no other holes.	21 years ago
Tom Lane	02571d4e20	Back-patch make_oidjoins_check security improvement.	21 years ago
Tom Lane	6b3d751747	Repair possible failure to update hint bits back to disk, per ... http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-10/msg00464.php. I plan a more permanent fix in HEAD, but for the back branches it seems best to just touch the places that actually have a problem.	21 years ago
Tom Lane	7b0919047f	Fix breakage in hashjoin from recent backpatch of left-join bug fix. ... (That's what I get for not testing the back branches *before* committing.)	21 years ago
Tom Lane	44ed69c8f3	Hashed LEFT JOIN would miss outer tuples with no inner match if the join ... was large enough to be batched and the tuples fell into a batch where there were no inner tuples at all. Thanks to Xiaoyu Wang for finding a test case that exposed this long-standing bug.	22 years ago
Tom Lane	a59084fe5e	Update 7.2 regression tests to match what you get when using a modern ... version of Bison.	22 years ago
Tom Lane	9f7cf9c0a6	Stamp 7.2.5.	22 years ago
Tom Lane	d0b776b2be	Fix failure to guarantee that a checkpoint will write out pg_clog updates ... for transaction commits that occurred just before the checkpoint. This is an EXTREMELY serious bug --- kudos to Satoshi Okada for creating a reproducible test case to prove its existence.	22 years ago
Tom Lane	fbec0d7e94	Repair multiple memory leaks in getTables(), including one that could ... easily exhaust memory on databases with more than a few hundred triggers. I don't expect any more releases of these old versions, but let's put the fix in CVS just so it's archived.	22 years ago
Tom Lane	5925377401	Fix longstanding error in _bt_search(): should moveright at top of loop not ... bottom. Otherwise we fail to moveright when the root page was split while we were "in flight" to it. This is not a significant problem when the root is above the leaf level, but if the root was also a leaf (ie, a single-page index just got split) we may return the wrong leaf page to the caller, resulting in failure to find a key that is in fact present. Bug has existed at least since 7.1, probably forever.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	90011a8918	Fix a *second* buffer overrun bug in to_ascii(). Grumble.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	e3859d1ad9	Second try at avoiding conflicts with system isblank().	23 years ago
Tom Lane	afed1af696	Guard against macro versions of isblank().	23 years ago
Tom Lane	680dc79f17	Add #include <errno.h> per recent reports that it's now necessary on ... RHL 9. (Not clear why it didn't break long before, actually...)	23 years ago
Tom Lane	07b776f52f	Fix buffer overrun in to_ascii(), per report from Guido Notari.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	28afe6f8ef	TestConfiguration returns int, not bool. This mistake is relatively ... harmless on signed-char machines but would lead to core dump in the deadlock detection code if char is unsigned. Amazingly, this bug has been here since 7.1 and yet wasn't reported till now. Thanks to Robert Bruccoleri for providing the opportunity to track it down.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	40faf433b0	Async_NotifyHandler must save and restore ImmediateInterruptOK. Fixes ... known problem with failure to respond to 'pg_ctl stop -m fast', and probable problems if SIGINT or SIGTERM arrives while processing a SIGUSR2 interrupt that arrived while waiting for a new client query.	23 years ago
D'Arcy J.M. Cain	f08392b55a	Back patch bug fix to quote function.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	895491bc22	Brand 7.2.4.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	d106c799e6	Update release history for 7.2.4.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	dd10354587	Back-patch fix to avoid integer overflow in ExecHashJoinGetBatch(), ... which leads to core dump in large-enough hash joins.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	2357fd166f	Back-patch fixes to detoast pg_group.grolist.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	12fa07750e	Back-patch fixes to ensure t_ctid always has correct value (prevents ... some instances of 'No one parent tuple' VACUUM error, and perhaps worse things).	23 years ago
Tom Lane	3c877e57f3	Back-patch fix for alphabetization mistakes in datetime token tables.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	adf852ba4a	Back-patch fix to ensure pg_clog updates are not only written but sync'ed ... before we consider the checkpoint to be done.	23 years ago
Tom Lane	0c3cf79244	Back-patch fixes for integer overflows in circle_poly(), path_encode(), ... and path_add() --- from Neil Conway. Also, repair recently-detected errors in lseg_eq(), lseg_ne(), lseg_center().	23 years ago
Tom Lane	474f1130c6	Back-patch fix for VACUUM being confused by SELECT FOR UPDATE of tuple ... that was previously outdated by a transaction that later aborted. Also, prevent VACUUM from being called inside function.	23 years ago
Bruce Momjian	4526d2183f	Brand 7.2.3.	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	9227bc5e5b	Update HISTORY/release.sgml for 7.2.3.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	407517f039	Back-patch fixes to work around broken mktime() in recent glibc releases.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	96464fa37c	Back-patch fix for bad SIGUSR2 interrupt handling during backend shutdown.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	c6ec2a8ba5	Back-patch fix for correct TAS operation on multi-CPU PPC machines.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	c9e3806e57	Back-patch fix for 'can't wait without a PROC structure' failures: ... remove separate ShutdownBufferPoolAccess exit callback, and do the work in ProcKill instead, before we delete MyProc.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	c80d09f123	Back-patch fix to ensure a checkpoint occurs before truncating CLOG, ... even if no recent WAL activity has occurred.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	a829ad1570	Back-patch fix to not change pg_database.datvacuumxid or truncate CLOG ... when an unprivileged user runs VACUUM.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	826692788d	Back-patch fix for failure to dump views containing FULL JOIN USING. ... The bug is not present in CVS tip due to cleanup of JOIN handling, but 7.2.* is broken.	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	30ab8da488	Update HISTORY with Neil's changes.	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	17e543ee97	Stamp the 7.2.2 release.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	5a2c7c3e10	Fix regression-test breakage from (unnecessary) rewrite of show_datestyle. Grumble.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	8c905b0aa9	Back-patch fix to make partial indexes usable on relations other than ... the first one listed in a query. Per request from Oleg.	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	cd9f392cd0	Apply Neil Conway's security patches to 7.2.X.	24 years ago
Tatsuo Ishii	76fc795e5c	Fix bug in pg_convert() per report from MaC.Yui. ... It pfree() wrong pointer.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	7e49585cad	Back-patch 7.3 fix to fully parenthesize UNION/EXCEPT/INTERSECT queries ... in ruleutils output. The previous partial parenthesization was a hack to get around grammar restrictions that have since been fixed; and as Sam O'Connor pointed out, there were cases where it didn't work.	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	a67387b6b4	Please apply attached patch to contrib/intarray (7.2, 7.3). ... Fixed bug with '=' operator for gist__int_ops and define '=' operator for gist__intbig_ops opclass. Now '=' operator is consistent with standard 'array' type. Thanks Achilleus Mantzios for bug report and suggestion. Oleg Bartunov	24 years ago
Tom Lane	b81737bfa8	Repair incorrect dumping of user-defined aggregate with null initcond. ... (Already fixed in current, but need a patch for 7.2.2.)	24 years ago
Tom Lane	efe861c855	Fix a bug with building rtree_gist indexes. ... Patch from Teodor Sigaev.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	5b792153fc	Repair error with not adjusting active scans properly after gistSplit. ... Patch from Teodor Sigaev.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	63448825fb	Make RelationForgetRelation error out if the relcache entry has nonzero ... reference count. This avoids leaving dangling pointers around, as in recent bug report against sequences (bug# 671).	24 years ago
