Hello hackers, I found an issue about get_bit() and set_bit() function,here it is: ################################ postgres=# select get_bit(pg_read_binary_file('/home/movead/temp/file_seek/f_512M'), 0); 2020-03-12 10:05:23.296 CST [10549] ERROR: index 0 out of valid range, 0..-1 2020-03-12 10:05:23.296 CST [10549] STATEMENT: select get_bit(pg_read_binary_file('/home/movead/temp/file_seek/f_512M'), 0); ERROR: index 0 out of valid range, 0..-1 postgres=# select set_bit(pg_read_binary_file('/home/movead/temp/file_seek/f_512M'), 0,1); 2020-03-12 10:05:27.959 CST [10549] ERROR: index 0 out of valid range, 0..-1 2020-03-12 10:05:27.959 CST [10549] STATEMENT: select set_bit(pg_read_binary_file('/home/movead/temp/file_seek/f_512M'), 0,1); ERROR: index 0 out of valid range, 0..-1 postgres=# ################################ PostgreSQL can handle bytea size nearby 1G, but now it reports an error when 512M. And I research it and found it is byteaSetBit() and byteaGetBit(), it uses an 'int32 len' to hold bit numbers for the long bytea data, and obvious 512M * 8bit is an overflow for an int32. So I fix it and test ok, as below. ################################ postgres=# select get_bit(set_bit(pg_read_binary_file('/home/movead/temp/file_seek/f_512M'), 0,1),0); get_bit --------- 1 (1 row) postgres=# select get_bit(set_bit(pg_read_binary_file('/home/movead/temp/file_seek/f_512M'), 0,0),0); get_bit --------- 0 (1 row) postgres=# ################################
And I do a check about if anything else related bytea has this issue, several codes have the same issue: 1. byteaout() When formatting bytea as an escape, the 'len' variable should be int64, or it may use an overflowing number. 2. esc_enc_len() Same as above, the 'len' variable should be int64, and the return type should change as int64. Due to esc_enc_len() has same call struct with pg_base64_enc_len() and hex_enc_len(), so I want to change the return value of the two function. And the opposite function esc_dec_len() seem nothing wrong. 3. binary_encode() and binary_decode() Here use an 'int32 resultlen' to accept an 'unsigned int' function return, which seem unfortable. I fix all mentioned above, and patch attachments. How do you think about that? Highgo Software (Canada/China/Pakistan) URL : www.highgo.ca EMAIL: mailto:movead(dot)li(at)highgo(dot)ca
