Fix to_char(interval) to return large year/month/day/hour values that
are larger than possible timestamp values.
Prevent to_char(interval) format specifications that make no sense, like
Month.
Clean up formatting.c code to more logically handle return lengths.
their OID parameter. It was possible to crash the backend with
select array_in('{123}',0,0); because that would bypass the needed step
of initializing the workspace. These seem to be the only two places
with a problem, though (record_in and record_recv don't have the issue,
and the other array functions aren't depending on user-supplied input).
Back-patch as far as 7.4; 7.3 does not have the bug.
remember the output parameter set for himself. It's a bit of a kluge
but fixing array_in to work in bootstrap mode looks worse.
I removed the separate pg_file_length() function, as it no longer has any
real notational advantage --- you can write (pg_stat_file(...)).length.
should surely be timestamptz not timestamp; fix some but not all of the
holes in check_and_make_absolute(); other minor cleanup. Also put in
the missed catversion bump.
An attached patch is a small additional improvement.
This patch use appendStringInfoText instead of appendStringInfoString.
There is an overhead of PG_TEXT_GET_STR when appendStringInfoString is
executed by text type. This can be reduced by appendStringInfoText.

doesn't automatically inherit the privileges of roles it is a member of;
for such a role, membership in another role can be exploited only by doing
explicit SET ROLE. The default inherit setting is TRUE, so by default
the behavior doesn't change, but creating a user with NOINHERIT gives closer
adherence to our current reading of SQL99. Documentation still lacking,
and I think the information schema needs another look.
existing ones for object privileges. Update the information_schema for
roles --- pg_has_role() makes this a whole lot easier, removing the need
for most of the explicit joins with pg_user. The views should be a tad
faster now, too. Stephen Frost and Tom Lane.

The problem was the use of rint() to round, and then find the remainder,
causing the negative values.
I have seen this case in CVS tip due to new "physical tlist" optimization
for subqueries. I believe it probably can't happen in existing releases,
but the check is not going to hurt anything, so backpatch to 8.0 just
in case.
requiring superuserness always, allow an owner to reassign ownership
to any role he is a member of, if that role would have the right to
create a similar object. These three requirements essentially state
that the would-be alterer has enough privilege to DROP the existing
object and then re-CREATE it as the new role; so we might as well
let him do it in one step. The ALTER TABLESPACE case is a bit
squirrely, but the whole concept of non-superuser tablespace owners
is pretty dubious anyway. Stephen Frost, code review by Tom Lane.
optional arguments as text input functions, ie, typioparam OID and
atttypmod. Make all the datatypes that use typmod enforce it the same
way in typreceive as they do in typinput. This fixes a problem with
failure to enforce length restrictions during COPY FROM BINARY.
The specification of this function is as follows.
regexp_replace(source text, pattern text, replacement text, [flags
text])
returns text
Replace string that matches to regular expression in source text to
replacement text.
- pattern is regular expression pattern.
- replacement is replace string that can use '\1'-'\9', and '\&'.
'\1'-'\9': back reference to the n'th subexpression.
'\&' : entire matched string.
- flags can use the following values:
g: global (replace all)
i: ignore case
When the flags is not specified, case sensitive, replace the first
instance only.

have adequate mechanisms for tracking the contents of databases and
tablespaces). This solves the longstanding problem that you can drop a
user who still owns objects and/or has access permissions.
Alvaro Herrera, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.
The content of the patch is as follows:
(1)Create shortcut when subtext was not found.
(2)Stop using LEFT and RIGHT macro.
In LEFT and RIGHT macro, TEXTPOS is executed by the same content as
execution immediately before. The execution frequency of TEXTPOS can be
reduced by using text_substring instead of LEFT and RIGHT macro.
(3)Add appendStringInfoText, and use it instead of
appendStringInfoString.
There is an overhead of PG_TEXT_GET_STR when appendStringInfoString is
executed by text type. This can be reduced by appendStringInfoText.
(4)Reduce execution of TEXTDUP.
The effect of the patch that I measured is as follows:
- The Data for test was created by 'pgbench -i'.
- Test SQL:
select replace(aid, '9', 'A') from accounts;
- Test results: Linux(CPU: Pentium III, Compiler option: -O2)
