The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 6460 Logged by: lxzou Email address: zoulx1...@163.com PostgreSQL version: 9.1.2 Operating system: Windows Server 2008 64 bit Description:
Hi, I startup postgres in win server 2008 64-bit with shared_buffers=1073741819, but find it doesn't work. I debug the postgres use vs2008, and find it enter an Infinite loop in my_log2. when the parameter num is between (2^30) + 1 and (2^31) -1, it will be an Infinite loop. because long in win 64 is 4 bytes, so (2^30) << 1 is 2^31, i.e. -2^31. move left again it will be zero. size_t in win64 is 8 bytes,so add_size and mul_size can't check overflow, but in win32 it can do that. So, whether we should use Size instead of long ?
