This adds support for infinity to the interval data type, using the same input/output representation as the other date/time data types that support infinity. This allows various arithmetic operations on infinite dates, timestamps and intervals. The new values are represented by setting all fields of the interval to INT32/64_MIN for -infinity, and INT32/64_MAX for +infinity. This ensures that they compare as less/greater than all other interval values, without the need for any special-case comparison code. Note that, since those 2 values were formerly accepted as legal finite intervals, pg_upgrade and dump/restore from an old database will turn them from finite to infinite intervals. That seems OK, since those exact values should be extremely rare in practice, and they are outside the documented range supported by the interval type, which gives us a certain amount of leeway. Bump catalog version. Joseph Koshakow, Jian He, and Ashutosh Bapat, reviewed by me. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAAvxfHea4%2BsPybKK7agDYOMo9N-Z3J6ZXf3BOM79pFsFNcRjwA%40mail.gmail.com
PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see which tests get run automatically. authentication/ Tests for authentication (but see also below) examples/ Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via "make check" isolation/ Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level kerberos/ Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption ldap/ Tests for LDAP-based authentication locale/ Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc mb/ Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support modules/ Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable for installing in production databases perl/ Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests recovery/ Test suite for recovery and replication regress/ PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress ssl/ Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling subscription/ Tests for logical replication
