Revision 234ad01f9ea08514b1368bbf214e6c779e372a1a authored by Tom Lane on 07 December 2010, 03:55:56 UTC, committed by Tom Lane on 07 December 2010, 03:55:56 UTC
There are some code paths, such as SPI_execute(), where we invoke copyObject() on raw parse trees before doing parse analysis on them. Since the bison grammar is capable of building heavily nested parsetrees while itself using only minimal stack depth, this means that copyObject() can be the front-line function that hits stack overflow before anything else does. Accordingly, it had better have a check_stack_depth() call. I did a bit of performance testing and found that this slows down copyObject() by only a few percent, so the hit ought to be negligible in the context of complete processing of a query. Per off-list report from Toshihide Katayama. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Makefile
# The PostgreSQL make files exploit features of GNU make that other
# makes do not have. Because it is a common mistake for users to try
# to build Postgres with a different make, we have this make file
# that, as a service, will look for a GNU make and invoke it, or show
# an error message if none could be found.
# If the user were using GNU make now, this file would not get used
# because GNU make uses a make file named "GNUmakefile" in preference
# to "Makefile" if it exists. PostgreSQL is shipped with a
# "GNUmakefile". If the user hasn't run the configure script yet, the
# GNUmakefile won't exist yet, so we catch that case as well.
