BUG #8230: Time interval size overflow

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      8230
Logged by:          Rok Kralj
Email address:      rok.kralj@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.4
Operating system:   Arch Linux
Description:        =


As far as I know, the INTERVAL type is represented using three int32, one
for months, days and milliseconds.

However, overflow detections seems to work correctly only on these three
types; if they get overflown indirectly, they do not get detected:

SELECT INTERVAL '3000000000 days'
ERROR:  interval field value out of range: "3000000000 days"

SELECT INTERVAL '2000000000 years'
-147483648 years

I'm surprised this hasn't been reported yet. The expected behaviour is to
raise an error.

The attached patch fixes the problem:

    test=> SELECT INTERVAL '2000000000 years';
    ERROR:  interval out of range
    LINE 1: SELECT INTERVAL '2000000000 years';

It also fixes this case

    test=> SELECT INTERVAL '2000000000-3 years';
    ERROR:  interval field value out of range: "2000000000-3 years"
    LINE 1: SELECT INTERVAL '2000000000-3 years';

Hello Bruce,

thank you for your contribution. However, as seen from my later report, the
situation is much much worse (complex, if you want) than this bug. Please
see this:

Yes, I see that in my mailbox and will address those shortly, but at
least this patch fixes part of the problem.
