The expression (len_diff * 10 * (an + 1)) used as the return value of ltree_compare() is computed at int32 width. With LTREE_MAX_LEVELS = 65535, the product can exceed INT32_MAX once an ltree has more than ~14,653 levels, which causes the result to wrap and invert its sign. That corrupts btree ordering as well as the "magnitude" consumed by ltree_penalty() for GiST page splits. To fix, split ltree_compare() into two functions. The new ltree_compare_distance() function returns a float, which won't overflow. It's used by the ltree_penalty() caller. All the other callers only care about the sign of the return value, i.e. which of the arguments is greater, so change ltree_compare() to not multiply the result with (10 * (an + 1)), which avoids the overflow for those callers. Existing btree or GiST indexes on ltree columns containing values with more than ~14,653 levels may be corrupt and should be REINDEXed. Add a regression test based on the reporter's PoC.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system.
PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings.
