Andres Freund 2bf626b714 Add output file argument to generate-errcodes.pl
This is in preparation for building postgres with meson / ninja.

meson's 'capture' (redirecting stdout to a file) is a bit slower than programs
redirecting output themselves (mostly due to a python wrapper necessary for
windows). That doesn't matter for most things, but errcodes.h is a dependency
of nearly everything, making it a bit faster seem worthwhile.

Medium term it might also be worth avoiding writing errcodes.h if its contents
didn't actually change, to avoid unnecessary recompilations.

Andres Freund b3a0d8324c Move snowball_create.sql creation into perl file
This is in preparation for building postgres with meson / ninja.

We already have duplicated code for this between the make and msvc
builds. Adding a third copy seems like a bad plan, thus move the generation
into a perl script.

As we don't want to rely on perl being available for builds from tarballs,
generate the file during distprep.

Andres Freund 089480c077 Default to hidden visibility for extension libraries where possible
Until now postgres built extension libraries with global visibility, i.e.
exporting all symbols.  On the one platform where that behavior is not
natively available, namely windows, we emulate it by analyzing the input files
to the shared library and exporting all the symbols therein.

Not exporting all symbols is actually desirable, as it can improve loading
speed, reduces the likelihood of symbol conflicts and can improve intra
extension library function call performance. It also makes the non-windows
builds more similar to windows builds.

Additionally, with meson implementing the export-all-symbols behavior for
windows, turns out to be more verbose than desirable.

This patch adds support for hiding symbols by default and, to counteract that,
explicit symbol visibility annotation for compilers that support
__attribute__((visibility("default"))) and -fvisibility=hidden. That is
expected to be most, if not all, compilers except msvc (for which we already
support explicit symbol export annotations).

Now that extension library symbols are explicitly exported, we don't need to
export all symbols on windows anymore, hence remove that behavior from
src/tools/msvc. The supporting code can't be removed, as we still need to
export all symbols from the main postgres binary.

This is in preparation for defaulting to -fvisibility=hidden in extensions,
instead of exporting all symbols. For that symbols intended to be exported
need to be tagged with PGDLLEXPORT. Most extensions only need to do so for
_PG_init() and functions defined with PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1. Adding central
declarations avoids each extension having to add PGDLLEXPORT. Any existing
declarations in extensions will continue to work if fmgr.h is included before
them, otherwise compilation for Windows will fail.

Tom Lane 31e5b50292 postgres_fdw: be more wary about shippability of reg* constants.
Don't consider a constant of regconfig or other reg* types to be
shippable unless it refers to a built-in object, or an object in
an extension that's been marked shippable.  Without this
restriction, we're too likely to send a constant that will fail
to parse on the remote server.

For the regconfig type only, consider OIDs up to 16383 to be
"built in", rather than the normal cutoff of 9999.  Otherwise
the initdb-created text search configurations will be considered
unshippable, which is unlikely to make anyone happy.

It's possible that this new restriction will de-optimize queries
that were working satisfactorily before.  Users can restore any
lost performance by making sure that objects that can be expected
to exist on the remote side are in shippable extensions.  However,
that's not a change that people are likely to be happy about having
to make after a minor-release update.  Between that consideration
and the lack of field complaints, let's just change this in HEAD.

Noted while fixing bug #17483, although this is not precisely
the problem that that report complained about.

Tom Lane 55828a6b60 Disable unstable test cases in src/test/ssl/t/001_ssltests.pl.
Some of the test cases added by commit 3a0e38504 are failing
intermittently in CI testing.  It looks like, when a connection
attempt fails, it's possible for psql to exit and the test script
to slurp up the postmaster's log file before the connected backend
has managed to write the log entry we're expecting to see.

It's not clear whether that's fixable in any robust way.  Pending
more thought, just comment out the log_like checks.  The ones in
connect_ok tests should be fine, since surely the log entry should
be emitted before we complete the client auth sequence.  I took
out all the ones in connect_fails tests though.

Thomas Munro c94ae9d827 Emulate sigprocmask(), not sigsetmask(), on Windows.
Since commit a65e0864, we've required Unix systems to have

consistency.

The PG_SETMASK() abstraction is now redundant and all calls could in
theory be replaced by plain sigprocmask() calls, but that isn't done by
this commit.

Thomas Munro 3b8d23a3e1 Make dsm_impl_posix_resize more future-proof.
Commit 4518c798 blocks signals for a short region of code, but it
assumed that whatever called it had the signal mask set to UnBlockSig on
entry.  That may be true today (or may even not be, in extensions in the
wild), but it would be better not to make that assumption.  We should
save-and-restore the caller's signal mask.

The PG_SETMASK() portability macro couldn't be used for that, which is
why it wasn't done before.  But... considering that commit a65e0864
established back in 9.6 that supported POSIX systems have sigprocmask(),
and that this is POSIX-only code, there is no reason not to use standard
sigprocmask() directly to achieve that.

Peter Eisentraut 3a0e385048 Log details for client certificate failures
Currently, debugging client certificate verification failures is
mostly limited to looking at the TLS alert code on the client side.
For simple deployments, sometimes it's enough to see "sslv3 alert
certificate revoked" and know exactly what needs to be fixed, but if
you add any more complexity (multiple CA layers, misconfigured CA
certificates, etc.), trying to debug what happened based on the TLS
alert alone can be an exercise in frustration.

Luckily, the server has more information about exactly what failed in
the chain, and we already have the requisite callback implemented as a
stub.  We fill that in, collect the data, and pass the constructed
error message back to the main code via a static variable.  This lets
us add our error details directly to the final "could not accept SSL
connection" log message, as opposed to issuing intermediate LOGs.

It ends up looking like

    LOG:  connection received: host=localhost port=43112
    LOG:  could not accept SSL connection: certificate verify failed
    DETAIL:  Client certificate verification failed at depth 1: unable to get local issuer certificate.
            Failed certificate data (unverified): subject "/CN=Test CA for PostgreSQL SSL regression test client certs", serial number 2315134995201656577, issuer "/CN=Test root CA for PostgreSQL SSL regression test suite".

The length of the Subject and Issuer strings is limited to prevent
malicious client certs from spamming the logs.  In case the truncation
makes things ambiguous, the certificate's serial number is also
logged.

Tom Lane 7c0eb3c622 Tighten up parsing logic in gen_node_support.pl.
Teach this script to handle function pointer fields honestly.
Previously they were just silently ignored, but that's not likely to
be a behavior we can accept indefinitely.  This mostly entails fixing
it so that a field declaration spanning multiple lines can be parsed,
because we have a bunch of such fields that're laid out that way.
But that's a good improvement in its own right.

With that change and a minor regex adjustment, the only struct it
fails to parse in the node-defining headers is A_Const, because
of the embedded union.  The path of least resistance is to move
that union declaration outside the struct.

Having done those things, we can make it error out if it finds
any within-struct syntax it doesn't understand, which seems like
a pretty important property for robustness.

This commit doesn't change the output files at all; it's just in
the way of future-proofing.

Thomas Munro 7bae3bbf62 Create a distinct wait event for POSIX DSM allocation.
Previously we displayed "DSMFillZeroWrite" while in posix_fallocate(),
because we shared the same wait event for "mmap" and "posix" DSM types.
Let's introduce a new wait event "DSMAllocate", to be more accurate.

Thomas Munro 712704d353 Remove redundant ftruncate() for POSIX DSM memory.
In early releases of the DSM infrastructure, it was possible to resize
segments.  That was removed in release 12 by commit 3c60d0fa.  Now the
ftruncate() + posix_fallocate() sequence during DSM segment creation has
a redundant step: we're always extending from zero to the desired size,
so we might as well just call posix_fallocate().

Let's also include the remaining ftruncate() call (non-Linux POSIX
systems) in the wait event reporting, for good measure.

Thomas Munro 4518c798b2 Block signals while allocating DSM memory.
On Linux, we call posix_fallocate() on shm_open()'d memory to avoid
later potential SIGBUS (see commit 899bd785).

Based on field reports of systems stuck in an EINTR retry loop there,
there, we made it possible to break out of that loop via slightly odd
coding where the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() call was somewhat removed from
the loop (see commit 422952ee).

On further reflection, that was not a great choice for at least two
reasons:

1.  If interrupts were held, the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() would do nothing
and the EINTR error would be surfaced to the user.

2.  If EINTR was reported but neither QueryCancelPending nor
ProcDiePending was set, then we'd dutifully retry, but with a bit more
understanding of how posix_fallocate() works, it's now clear that you
can get into a loop that never terminates.  posix_fallocate() is not a
function that can do some of the job and tell you about progress if it's
interrupted, it has to undo what it's done so far and report EINTR, and
if signals keep arriving faster than it can complete (cf recovery
conflict signals), you're stuck.

Therefore, for now, we'll simply block most signals to guarantee
progress.  SIGQUIT is not blocked (see InitPostmasterChild()), because
its expected handler doesn't return, and unblockable signals like
SIGCONT are not expected to arrive at a high rate.  For good measure,
we'll include the ftruncate() call in the blocked region, and add a
retry loop.

Back-patch to all supported releases.

Michael Paquier 6203583b72 Remove support for Visual Studio 2013
No members of the buildfarm are using this version of Visual Studio,
resulting in all the code cleaned up here as being mostly dead, and
VS2017 is the oldest version still supported.

More versions could be cut, but the gain would be minimal, while
removing only VS2013 has the advantage to remove from the core code all
the dependencies on the value defined by _MSC_VER, where compatibility
tweaks have accumulated across the years mostly around locales and
strtof(), so that's a nice isolated cleanup.

Note that this commit additionally allows a revert of 3154e16.  The
versions of Visual Studio now supported range from 2015 to 2022.

Tom Lane 54ba2f0623 Revert "Use wildcards instead of manually-maintained file lists in */nls.mk."
This reverts commit 617d691412.
While I still think the basic idea is attractive, we need to sort
out what happens with built .c files, and there also seem to be
VPATH issues.
