Tom Lane 9e83d73b6c Add a GUC_SUPERUSER_ONLY flag to mark GUC variables that should not be
examinable by non-superusers, and use it to protect the recently-added
GUC variables for data directory and config files.  For now I have only
flagged those variables that could be used to deduce something about
the server's filesystem layout, but possibly we should also mark vars
related to logging settings and other admin-only information?

Tom Lane 9309d5f2ba In ALTER COLUMN TYPE, strip any implicit coercion operations appearing
at the top level of the column's old default expression before adding
an implicit coercion to the new column type.  This seems to satisfy the
principle of least surprise, as per discussion of bug #1290.

Neil Conway 121aca39ba Minor code cleanup: hdefault() only ever returned "true", so it may as
well be declared to return "void" to save callers the trouble of
checking for errors.

Tom Lane a57df8d50d Update release history for releases 7.4.6, 7.3.8, 7.2.6. 2004-10-22 00:25:18 +00:00
Tom Lane c58675b428 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.

Tom Lane 12a47c6aca Disallow referential integrity actions from being deferred; only the
NO ACTION check is deferrable.  This seems to be a closer approximation
to what the SQL spec says than what we were doing before, and it prevents
some anomalous behaviors that are possible now that triggers can fire
during the execution of PL functions.

than adding special cases in half a dozen places.

Neil Conway 857e210ea9 When using GCC, change the default CFLAGS to:
-O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith

Check whether the version of GCC we are using supports any of:

  -Wdeclaration-after-statement
  -Wendif-labels
  -Wold-style-definition

And add the supported flags to CFLAGS.

Tom Lane c77d06633a Add some code to ensure that we don't lose communication sync due to
an oversize message, per suggestion from Oliver Jowett.  I'm a bit
dubious that this is a real problem, since the client likely doesn't
have any more space available than the server, but it's not hard to
make it behave according to the protocol intention.

Bruce Momjian f9259bd563 Update wording:
* Allow a database in tablespace t1 with tables created in tablespace t2
  to be used as a template for a new database created with default
  tablespace t2

  All objects in the default database tablespace must have default tablespace
  specifications.  This is because new databases are created by copying
  directories.  If you mix default tablespace tables and tablespace-specified
  tables in the same directory, creating a new database from such a mixed
  directory would create a new database with tables that had incorrect
  explicit tablespaces.  To fix this would require modifying pg_class in the
  newly copied database, which we don't currently do.
