Tom Lane 980a70b976 Fix our getopt_long's behavior for a command line argument of just "-".
src/port/getopt_long.c failed on such an argument, always seeing it
as an unrecognized switch.  This is unhelpful; better is to treat such
an item as a non-switch argument.  That behavior is what we find in
GNU's getopt_long(); it's what src/port/getopt.c does; and it is
required by POSIX for getopt(), which getopt_long() ought to be
generally a superset of.  Moreover, it's expected by ecpg, which
intends an argument of "-" to mean "read from stdin".  So fix it.

Also add some documentation about ecpg's behavior in this area, since
that was miserably underdocumented.  I had to reverse-engineer it
from the code.

Per bug #16304 from James Gray.  Back-patch to all supported branches,
since this has been broken forever.

Peter Eisentraut 0a42a2e9ce Remove win32ver.rc from version_stamp.pl
This removes another relic from the old nmake-based Windows build.
version_stamp.pl put version number information into win32ver.rc.  But
win32ver.rc already gets other version number information from the
preprocessor at build time, so it would make more sense if all version
number information would be handled in the same way and we don't have
two places that do it.

What we need for this is having the major version number and the minor
version number as separate integer symbols.  Both configure and
Solution.pm already have that logic, because they compute
PG_VERSION_NUM.  So we just keep all the logic there now.  Put the
minor version number into a new symbol PG_MINORVERSION_NUM.  Also, add
a symbol PG_MAJORVERSION_NUM, which is a number, alongside the
existing PG_MAJORVERSION, which is a string.

Tom Lane 5406513e99 In pgwin32_open, loop after ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED only if we can't stat.
This fixes a performance problem introduced by commit 6d7547c21.
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED is returned in some other cases besides the
delete-pending case considered by that commit; notably, if the
given path names a directory instead of a plain file.  In that
case we'll uselessly loop for 1 second before returning the
failure condition.  That slows down some usage scenarios enough
to cause test timeout failures on our Windows buildfarm critters.

To fix, try to stat() the file, and sleep/loop only if that fails.
It will fail in the delete-pending case, and also in the case where
the deletion completed before we could stat(), so we have the cases
where we want to loop covered.  In the directory case, the stat()
should succeed, letting us exit without a wait.

One case where we'll still wait uselessly is if the access-denied
problem pertains to a directory in the given pathname.  But we don't
expect that to happen in any performance-critical code path.

There might be room to refine this further, but I'll push it now
in hopes of making the buildfarm green again.

Back-patch, like the preceding commit.

Tom Lane 6d7547c219 On Windows, wait a little to see if ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED goes away.
Attempting to open a file fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED if the file
is flagged for deletion but not yet actually gone (another in a long
list of reasons why Windows is broken, if you ask me).  This seems
likely to explain a lot of irreproducible failures we see in the
buildfarm.  This state generally persists for only a millisecond or so,
so just wait a bit and retry.  If it's a real permissions problem,
we'll eventually give up and report it as such.  If it's the pending
deletion case, we'll see file-not-found and report that after the
deletion completes, and the caller will treat that in an appropriate
way.

In passing, rejigger the existing retry logic for some other error
cases so that we don't uselessly wait an extra time when we're
not going to retry anymore.

Alexander Lakhin (with cosmetic tweaks by me).  Back-patch to all
supported branches, since this seems like a pretty safe change and
the problem is definitely real.

Andres Freund 01368e5d9d Split all OBJS style lines in makefiles into one-line-per-entry style.
When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources
for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when
the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is
somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those
conflicts are unnecessarily laborious to resolve.

By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one
object per line, conflicts should be less frequent, and easier to
resolve when they still occur.

Tom Lane 9abb2bfc04 In the postmaster, rely on the signal infrastructure to block signals.
POSIX sigaction(2) can be told to block a set of signals while a
signal handler executes.  Make use of that instead of manually
blocking and unblocking signals in the postmaster's signal handlers.
This should save a few cycles, and it also prevents recursive
invocation of signal handlers when many signals arrive in close
succession.  We have seen buildfarm failures that seem to be due to
postmaster stack overflow caused by such recursion (exacerbated by
a Linux PPC64 kernel bug).

This doesn't change anything about the way that it works on Windows.
Somebody might consider adjusting port/win32/signal.c to let it work
similarly, but I'm not in a position to do that.

For the moment, just apply to HEAD.  Possibly we should consider
back-patching this, but it'd be good to let it age awhile first.

Tom Lane b654714f9b Fix failures to ignore \r when reading Windows-style newlines.
libpq failed to ignore Windows-style newlines in connection service files.
This normally wasn't a problem on Windows itself, because fgets() would
convert \r\n to just \n.  But if libpq were running inside a program that
changes the default fopen mode to binary, it would see the \r's and think
they were data.  In any case, it's project policy to ignore \r in text
files unconditionally, because people sometimes try to use files with
DOS-style newlines on Unix machines, where the C library won't hide that
from us.

Hence, adjust parseServiceFile() to ignore \r as well as \n at the end of
the line.  In HEAD, go a little further and make it ignore all trailing
whitespace, to match what it's always done with leading whitespace.

In HEAD, also run around and fix up everyplace where we have
newline-chomping code to make all those places look consistent and
uniformly drop \r.  It is not clear whether any of those changes are
fixing live bugs.  Most of the non-cosmetic changes are in places that
are reading popen output, and the jury is still out as to whether popen
on Windows can return \r\n.  (The Windows-specific code in pipe_read_line
seems to think so, but our lack of support for this elsewhere suggests
maybe it's not a problem in practice.)  Hence, I desisted from applying
those changes to back branches, except in run_ssl_passphrase_command()
which is new enough and little-tested enough that we'd probably not have
heard about any problems there.

Tom Lane and Michael Paquier, per bug #15827 from Jorge Gustavo Rocha.

Michael Paquier 754b90f657 Fix error handling of readdir() port implementation on first file lookup
The implementation of readdir() in src/port/ which gets used by MSVC has
been added in 399a36a, and since the beginning it considers all errors
on the first file lookup as ENOENT, setting errno accordingly and
letting the routine caller think that the directory is empty.  While
this is normally enough for the case of the backend, this can confuse
callers of this routine on Windows as all errors would map to the same
behavior.  So, for example, even permission errors would be thought as
having an empty directory, while there could be contents in it.

This commit changes the error handling so as readdir() gets a behavior
similar to native implementations: force errno=0 when seeing
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND as error and consider other errors as plain
failures.

While looking at the patch, I noticed that MinGW does not enforce
errno=0 when looking at the first file, but it gets enforced on the next
file lookups.  A comment related to that was incorrect in the code.

Tom Lane 02a6a54ecd Make use of compiler builtins and/or assembly for CLZ, CTZ, POPCNT.
Test for the compiler builtins __builtin_clz, __builtin_ctz, and
__builtin_popcount, and make use of these in preference to
handwritten C code if they're available.  Create src/port
infrastructure for "leftmost one", "rightmost one", and "popcount"
so as to centralize these decisions.

On x86_64, __builtin_popcount generally won't make use of the POPCNT
opcode because that's not universally supported yet.  Provide code
that checks CPUID and then calls POPCNT via asm() if available.
This requires indirecting through a function pointer, which is
an annoying amount of overhead for a one-instruction operation,
but it's probably not worth working harder than this for our
current use-cases.

I'm not sure we've found all the existing places that could profit
from this new infrastructure; but we at least touched all the
ones that used copied-and-pasted versions of the bitmapset.c code,
and got rid of multiple copies of the associated constant arrays.

While at it, replace c-compiler.m4's one-per-builtin-function
macros with a single one that can handle all the cases we need
to worry about so far.  Also, because I'm paranoid, make those
checks into AC_LINK checks rather than just AC_COMPILE; the
former coding failed to verify that libgcc has support for the
builtin, in cases where it's not inline code.

Andrew Gierth 72880ac182 Cygwin and Mingw floating-point fixes.
Deal with silent-underflow errors in float4 for cygwin and mingw by
using our strtof() wrapper; deal with misrounding errors by adding
them to the resultmap. Some slight reorganization of declarations was
done to avoid duplicating material between cygwin.h and win32_port.h.

While here, remove from the resultmap all references to
float8-small-is-zero; inspection of cygwin output suggests it's no
longer required there, and the freebsd/netbsd/openbsd entries should
no longer be necessary (these date back to c. 2000). This commit
doesn't remove the file itself nor the documentation references for
it; that will happen in a subsequent commit if all goes well.

Alvaro Herrera 457aef0f1f Revert attempts to use POPCNT etc instructions
This reverts commits fc6c72747a, 109de05cbb, d0b4663c23 and
711bab1e4d.

Somebody will have to try harder before submitting this patch again.
I've spent entirely too much time on it already, and the #ifdef maze yet
to be written in order for it to build at all got on my nerves.  The
amount of work needed to get a platform-specific performance improvement
that's barely above the noise level is not worth it.

Alvaro Herrera fc6c72747a Fix compiler builtin usage in new pg_bitutils.c
Split out these new functions in three parts: one in a new file that
uses the compiler builtin and gets compiled with the -mpopcnt compiler
option if it exists; another one that uses the compiler builtin but not
the compiler option; and finally the fallback with open-coded
algorithms.

Split out the configure logic: in the original commit, it was selecting
to use the -mpopcnt compiler switch together with deciding whether to
use the compiler builtin, but those two things are really separate.
Split them out.  Also, expose whether the builtin exists to
Makefile.global, so that src/port's Makefile can decide whether to
compile the hw-optimized file.

Remove CPUID test for CTZ/CLZ.  Make pg_{right,left}most_ones use either
the compiler intrinsic or open-coded algo; trying to use the
HW-optimized version is a waste of time.  Make them static inline
functions.

Alvaro Herrera 109de05cbb Fix portability issues in pg_bitutils
We were using uint64 function arguments as "long int" arguments to
compiler builtins, which fails on machines where long ints are 32 bits:
the upper half of the uint64 was being ignored.  Fix by using the "ll"
builtin variants instead, which on those machines take 64 bit arguments.

Also, remove configure tests for __builtin_popcountl() (as well as
"long" variants for ctz and clz): the theory here is that any compiler
version will provide all widths or none, so one test suffices.  Were
this theory to be wrong, we'd have to add tests for
__builtin_popcountll() and friends, which would be tedious.

Per failures in buildfarm member lapwing and ensuing discussion.

Alvaro Herrera 711bab1e4d Add basic support for using the POPCNT and SSE4.2s LZCNT opcodes
These opcodes have been around in the AMD world since 2007, and 2008 in
the case of intel.  They're supported in GCC and Clang via some __builtin
macros.  The opcodes may be unavailable during runtime, in which case we
fall back on a C-based implementation of the code.  In order to get the
POPCNT instruction we must pass the -mpopcnt option to the compiler.  We
do this only for the pg_bitutils.c file.

Andrew Gierth f397e08599 Use strtof() and not strtod() for float4 input.
Using strtod() creates a double-rounding problem; the input decimal
value is first rounded to the nearest double; rounding that to the
nearest float may then give an incorrect result.

An example is that 7.038531e-26 when input via strtod and then rounded
to float4 gives 0xAE43FEp-107 instead of the correct 0xAE43FDp-107.

Values output by earlier PG versions with extra_float_digits=3 should
all be read in with the same values as previously. However, values
supplied by other software using shortest representations could be
mis-read.

On platforms that lack a strtof() entirely, we fall back to the old
incorrect rounding behavior. (As strtof() is required by C99, such
platforms are considered of primarily historical interest.) On VS2013,
some workarounds are used to get correct error handling.

The regression tests now test for the correct input values, so
platforms that lack strtof() will need resultmap entries. An entry for
HP-UX 10 is included (more may be needed).

Tom Lane 69bcd718df Use our own getopt() on OpenBSD.
Recent OpenBSD (at least 5.9 and up) has a version of getopt(3)
that will not cope with the "-:" spec we use to accept double-dash
options in postgres.c and postmaster.c.  Admittedly, that's a hack
because POSIX only requires getopt() to allow alphanumeric option
characters.  I have no desire to find another way, however, so
let's just do what we were already doing on Solaris: force use
of our own src/port/getopt.c implementation.

In passing, improve some of the comments around said implementation.

Per buildfarm and local testing.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Michael Paquier 1707a0d2aa Remove configure switch --disable-strong-random
This removes a portion of infrastructure introduced by fe0a0b5 to allow
compilation of Postgres in environments where no strong random source is
available, meaning that there is no linking to OpenSSL and no
/dev/urandom (Windows having its own CryptoAPI).  No systems shipped
this century lack /dev/urandom, and the buildfarm is actually not
testing this switch at all, so just remove it.  This simplifies
particularly some backend code which included a fallback implementation
using shared memory, and removes a set of alternate regression output
files from pgcrypto.
