Solution.pm mistakenly believed that the xml option requires the xslt
option, when actually the dependency is the other way around; and it
believed that libxml requires libiconv, which is not necessarily so,
so we shouldn't enforce it here. Fix the option cross-checking logic.
Also, since AddProject already takes care of adding libxml and libxslt
include and library dependencies to every project, there's no need
for the custom code that did that in mkvcbuild. While at it, let's
handle the similar dependencies for uuid in a similar fashion.
Given the lack of field complaints about these overly strict build
dependency requirements, there seems no need for a back-patch.

When building libpq, ip.c and md5.c were symlinked or copied from
src/backend/libpq into src/interfaces/libpq, but now that we have a
directory specifically for routines that are shared between the server and
client binaries, src/common/, move them there.
Some routines in ip.c were only used in the backend. Keep those in
src/backend/libpq, but rename to ifaddr.c to avoid confusion with the file
that's now in common.
Fix the comment in src/common/Makefile to reflect how libpq actually links
those files.
There are two more files that libpq symlinks directly from src/backend:
encnames.c and wchar.c. I don't feel compelled to move those right now,
though.

Once upon a time, it made sense for the ecpg preprocessor to have its
own version number, because it used a manually-maintained grammar that
wasn't always in sync with the core grammar. But those days are
thankfully long gone, leaving only a maintenance nuisance behind.
Let's use the PG v10 version numbering changeover as an excuse to get
rid of the ecpg version number and just have ecpg identify itself by
PG_VERSION. From the user's standpoint, ecpg will go from "4.12" in
the 9.6 branch to "10" in the 10 branch, so there's no failure of
monotonicity.

The test_pg_dump extension doesn't have a C component, so we need
to exclude it from the MSVC build system trying to figure out how
to build it.
Also add a "MODULES" line to the Makefile, as test_extensions has.
Might not be necessary, but seems good to keep things consistent.
Lastly, remove the 'installcheck' line from test_pg_dump, as that
was causing redefinition errors, at least on my box. This also
makes test_pg_dump consistent with how commit_ts is set up.
The buildfarm showed failure for Windows MSVC builds due to this
omission. This might not be the only problem with the Makefile for
this feature, but hopefully this will get it past the immediate
problem.
Fix suggested by Tom Lane
Previously synchronous replication offered only the ability to confirm
that all changes made by a transaction had been transferred to at most
one synchronous standby server.
This commit extends synchronous replication so that it supports multiple
synchronous standby servers. It enables users to consider one or more
standby servers as synchronous, and increase the level of transaction
durability by ensuring that transaction commits wait for replies from
all of those synchronous standbys.
Multiple synchronous standby servers are configured in
synchronous_standby_names which is extended to support new syntax of
'num_sync ( standby_name [ , ... ] )', where num_sync specifies
the number of synchronous standbys that transaction commits need to
wait for replies from and standby_name is the name of a standby
server.
The syntax of 'standby_name [ , ... ]' which was used in 9.5 or before
is also still supported. It's the same as new syntax with num_sync=1.
This commit doesn't include "quorum commit" feature which was discussed
in pgsql-hackers. Synchronous standbys are chosen based on their priorities.
synchronous_standby_names determines the priority of each standby for
being chosen as a synchronous standby. The standbys whose names appear
earlier in the list are given higher priority and will be considered as
synchronous. Other standby servers appearing later in this list
represent potential synchronous standbys.
The regression test for multiple synchronous standbys is not included
in this commit. It should come later.

Many thanks to the various individuals who were involved in
discussing and developing this feature.
This completes (at least for now) the project of getting rid of ad-hoc
linkages among the src/bin/ subdirectories. Everything they share is now
in src/fe_utils/ and is included from a static library at link time.
A side benefit is that we can restore the FLEX_NO_BACKUP check for
psqlscanslash.l. We might need to think of another way to do that check
if we ever need to build two lexers with that property in the same source
directory, but there's no foreseeable reason to need that.
Per discussion, we want to create a static library and put the stuff into
it that until now has been shared across src/bin/ directories by ad-hoc
methods like symlinking a source file. This commit creates the library and
populates it with a couple of files that contain the widely-useful portions
of pg_dump's dumputils.c file. dumputils.c survives, because it has some
stuff that didn't seem appropriate for fe_utils, but it's significantly
smaller and is no longer referenced from any other directory.
Follow-on patches will move more stuff into fe_utils.
The Mkvcbuild.pm hacking here is just a best guess; we'll see how the
buildfarm likes it.
Now that we have src/common/ for code shared between frontend and backend,
we can get rid of (most of) the klugy ways that the keyword table and
keyword lookup code were formerly shared between different uses.
This is a first step towards a more general plan of getting rid of
special-purpose kluges for sharing code in src/bin/.
I chose to merge kwlookup.c back into keywords.c, as it once was, and
always has been so far as keywords.h is concerned. We could have
kept them separate, but there is noplace that uses ScanKeywordLookup
without also wanting access to the backend's keyword list, so there
seems little point.
ecpg is still a bit weird, but at least now the trickiness is documented.
I think that the MSVC build script should require no adjustments beyond
what's done here ... but we'll soon find out.
Previously latches for windows and unix had been implemented in
different files. A later patch introduce an expanded wait
infrastructure, keeping the implementation separate would introduce too
much duplication.
This basically just moves the functions, without too much change. The
reason to keep this separate is that it allows blame to continue working
a little less badly; and to make review a tiny bit easier.

After the previous fix in 6f1f34c9 msvc ended up looking for psqlscan.c
in the wrong directory.
David's fix just forces the path to be adjusted. That's not a
particularly pretty fix, but it hopefully will make the buildfarm green
again.

pgbench now needs to use src/bin/psql/psqlscan.l, but it's not very clear
how to fit that into the MSVC build system. If this doesn't work I'm going
to need some help from somebody who actually understands those scripts ...
This gets us to a point where psqlscan.l can be used by other frontend
programs for the same purpose psql uses it for, ie to detect when it's
collected a complete SQL command from input that is divided across
line boundaries. Moreover, other programs can supply their own lexers
for backslash commands of their own choosing. A follow-on patch will
use this in pgbench.
The end result here is roughly the same as in Kyotaro Horiguchi's
0001-Make-SQL-parser-part-of-psqlscan-independent-from-ps.patch, although
the details of the method for switching between lexers are quite different.
Basically, in this patch we share the entire PsqlScanState, YY_BUFFER_STATE
stack, *and* yyscan_t between different lexers. The only thing we need
to do to switch to a different lexer is to make sure the start_state is
valid for the new lexer. This works because flex doesn't keep any other
persistent state that depends on the specific lexing tables generated for
a particular .l file. (We are assuming that both lexers are built with
the same flex version, or at least versions that are compatible with
respect to the contents of yyscan_t; but that doesn't seem likely to
be a big problem in practice, considering how slowly flex changes.)
Aside from being more efficient than Horiguchi-san's original solution,
this avoids possible corner-case changes in semantics: the original code
was capable of popping the input buffer stack while still staying in
backslash-related parsing states. I'm not sure that that equates to any
useful user-visible behaviors, but I'm not sure it doesn't either, so
I'm loath to assume that we only need to consider the topmost buffer when
parsing a backslash command.
I've attempted to update the MSVC build scripts for the added .l file,
but will rely on the buildfarm to see if I missed anything.

Add four new SQL accessible functions: pg_control_system(),
pg_control_checkpoint(), pg_control_recovery(), and pg_control_init()
which expose a subset of the control file data.
Along the way move the code to read and validate the control file to
src/common, where it can be shared by the new backend functions
and the original pg_controldata frontend program.
Patch by me, significant input, testing, and review by Michael Paquier.
Move and refactor the underlying code for the pg_config client
application to src/common in support of sharing it with a new
system information SRF called pg_config() which makes the same
information available via SQL. Additionally wrap the SRF with a
new system view, as called pg_config.
Patch by me with extensive input and review by Michael Paquier
and additional review by Alvaro Herrera.
pg_ctl is using isatty() to verify whether the process is running in a
terminal, and if not it sends its output to Windows' Event Log ... which
does the wrong thing when the output has been redirected to a pipe, as
reported in bug #13592.
To fix, make pg_ctl use the code we already have to detect service-ness:
in the master branch, move src/backend/port/win32/security.c to src/port
(with suitable tweaks so that it runs properly in backend and frontend
environments); pg_ctl already has access to pgport so it Just Works. In
older branches, that's likely to cause trouble, so instead duplicate the
required code in pg_ctl.c.

Without CASCADE, if an extension has an unfullfilled dependency on
another extension, CREATE EXTENSION ERRORs out with "required extension
... is not installed". That is annoying, especially when that dependency
is an implementation detail of the extension, rather than something the
extension's user can make sense of.
In addition to CASCADE this also includes a small set of regression
tests around CREATE EXTENSION.

This reverts commit 16304a0134, except
for its changes in src/port/snprintf.c; as well as commit
cac18a76bb which is no longer needed.
Fujii Masao reported that the previous commit caused failures in psql on
OS X, since if one exits the pager program early while viewing a query
result, psql sees an EPIPE error from fprintf --- and the wrapper function
thought that was reason to panic. (It's a bit surprising that the same
does not happen on Linux.) Further discussion among the security list
concluded that the risk of other such failures was far too great, and
that the one-size-fits-all approach to error handling embodied in the
previous patch is unlikely to be workable.
This leaves us again exposed to the possibility of the type of failure
envisioned in CVE-2015-3166. However, that failure mode is strictly
hypothetical at this point: there is no concrete reason to believe that
an attacker could trigger information disclosure through the supposed
mechanism. In the first place, the attack surface is fairly limited,
since so much of what the backend does with format strings goes through
stringinfo.c or psprintf(), and those already had adequate defenses.
In the second place, even granting that an unprivileged attacker could
control the occurrence of ENOMEM with some precision, it's a stretch to
believe that he could induce it just where the target buffer contains some
valuable information. So we concluded that the risk of non-hypothetical
problems induced by the patch greatly outweighs the security risks.
We will therefore revert, and instead undertake closer analysis to
identify specific calls that may need hardening, rather than attempt a
universal solution.
We have kept the portion of the previous patch that improved snprintf.c's
handling of errors when it calls the platform's sprintf(). That seems to
be an unalloyed improvement.
Security: CVE-2015-3166
All known standard library implementations of these functions can fail
with ENOMEM. A caller neglecting to check for failure would experience
missing output, information exposure, or a crash. Check return values
within wrappers and code, currently just snprintf.c, that bypasses the
wrappers. The wrappers do not return after an error, so their callers
need not check. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
Popular free software standard library implementations do take pains to
bypass malloc() in simple cases, but they risk ENOMEM for floating point
numbers, positional arguments, large field widths, and large precisions.
No specification demands such caution, so this commit regards every call
to a printf family function as a potential threat.
Injecting the wrappers implicitly is a compromise between patch scope
and design goals. I would prefer to edit each call site to name a
wrapper explicitly. libpq and the ECPG libraries would, ideally, convey
errors to the caller rather than abort(). All that would be painfully
invasive for a back-patched security fix, hence this compromise.

With this patch the MSVC build and installation will work correctly with

Switching the Windows build scripts to use forward slashes instead of
backslashes has caused a couple of issues in VC builds:
- The file tree list was not correctly generated, build script
generating vcproj file missing tree dependencies when listing items in
Filter.
- VC builds do not accept file paths with forward slashes, perhaps it
could be possible to use a Condition but it seems safer to simply
enforce the file paths to use backslashes in the vcproj files.
- chkpass had an unneeded dependency with libpgport and libpgcommon to
make build succeed but actually it is not necessary as crypt.c is
already listed for this project and should be replaced with a fake name
as it is a unique file.
Michael Paquier
This makes it possible to run some stages of these build scripts on
non-Windows systems. That way, we can more easily test whether file
moves or makefile changes might break the MSVC build.

The majority practice is to add -DFRONTEND in directories building files
that are, at other times, built for the backend. Some directories
lacking that property added a noise -DFRONTEND in one build system.
Remove the excess flags, for consistency.
Each of the libraries incorporates src/port files, which often check
FRONTEND. Build systems disagreed on whether to build libpgtypes this
way. Only libecpg incorporates files that rely on it today. Back-patch
to 9.0 (all supported versions) to forestall surprises.
Modern x86 and x86-64 processors with SSE 4.2 support have special
instructions, crc32b and crc32q, for calculating CRC-32C. They greatly
speed up CRC calculation.
Whether the instructions can be used or not depends on the compiler and the
target architecture. If generation of SSE 4.2 instructions is allowed for
the target (-msse4.2 flag on gcc and clang), use them. If they are not
allowed by default, but the compiler supports the -msse4.2 flag to enable
them, compile just the CRC-32C function with -msse4.2 flag, and check at
runtime whether the processor we're running on supports it. If it doesn't,
fall back to the slicing-by-8 algorithm. (With the common defaults on
current operating systems, the runtime-check variant is what you get in
practice.)
Abhijit Menon-Sen, heavily modified by me, reviewed by Andres Freund.
Now that we use CRC-32C in WAL and the control file, the "traditional" and
"legacy" CRC-32 variants are not used in any frontend programs anymore.
Move the code for those back from src/common to src/backend/utils/hash.
Also move the slicing-by-8 implementation (back) to src/port. This is in
preparation for next patch that will add another implementation that uses
Intel SSE 4.2 instructions to calculate CRC-32C, where available.
As with initdb these programs need to run with a restricted token, and
if they don't pg_upgrade will fail when run as a user with Adminstrator
privileges.
Backpatch to all live branches. On the development branch the code is
reorganized so that the restricted token code is now in a single
location. On the stable bramches a less invasive change is made by
simply copying the relevant code to pg_upgrade.c and pg_resetxlog.c.

It worked in my Windows VM with VS2013, but buildfarm animal mastodon,
running MSVC 2005, was not happy. Amit Kapila also reported a similar error

Instead of copying xlogreader.c and *desc.c files into the source directory,
build them where they are. That's what we do for other binaries that need to
compile and link in files from elsewhere in the source tree.
The commit history suggests that it was done this way because of issues with
older versions of MSVC. I think this should work, but we'll see if the
buildfarm complains.
Previously, you could do \set variable operand1 operator operand2, but
nothing more complicated. Now, you can \set variable expression, which
makes it much simpler to do multi-step calculations here. This also
adds support for the modulo operator (%), with the same semantics as in
C.
