I had thought we weren't using this version of pqsignal() at all on
Windows, but that's wrong --- initdb is using it (and coping with the
POSIX-ish semantics of bare signal() :-(). So allow the file to be
built in WIN32+FRONTEND case, and add it to the MSVC build logic.
We had two copies of this function in the backend and libpq, which was
already pretty bogus, but it turns out that we need it in some other
programs that don't use libpq (such as pg_test_fsync). So put it where
it probably should have been all along. The signal-mask-initialization
support in src/backend/libpq/pqsignal.c stays where it is, though, since
we only need that in the backend.
The libpgcommon patch made that unnecessary, palloc and friends are now
available in frontend programs too, mapped to plain old malloc.
As pointed out by Alvaro Herrera.
This includes backend "COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM '...'" syntax, and corresponding
psql \copy syntax. Like with reading/writing files, the backend version is
superuser-only, and in the psql version, the program is run in the client.
In the passing, the psql \copy STDIN/STDOUT syntax is subtly changed: if you
the stdin/stdout is quoted, it's now interpreted as a filename. For example,
"\copy foo from 'stdin'" now reads from a file called 'stdin', not from
standard input. Before this, there was no way to specify a filename called
stdin, stdout, pstdin or pstdout.
This creates a new function in pgport, wait_result_to_str(), which can
be used to convert the exit status of a process, as returned by wait(3),
to a human-readable string.
Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Amit Kapila.
libpgcommon is a new static library to allow sharing code among the
various frontend programs and backend; this lets us eliminate duplicate
implementations of common routines. We avoid libpgport, because that's
intended as a place for porting issues; per discussion, it seems better
to keep them separate.
The first use case, and the only implemented by this patch, is pg_malloc
and friends, which many frontend programs were already using.
At the same time, we can use this to provide palloc emulation functions
for the frontend; this way, some palloc-using files in the backend can
also be used by the frontend cleanly. To do this, we change palloc() in
the backend to be a function instead of a macro on top of
MemoryContextAlloc(). This was previously believed to cause loss of
performance, but this implementation has been tweaked by Tom and Andres
so that on modern compilers it provides a slight improvement over the
previous one.
This lets us clean up some places that were already with
localized hacks.
Most of the pg_malloc/palloc changes in this patch were authored by
Andres Freund. Zoltán Böszörményi also independently provided a form of
that. libpgcommon infrastructure was authored by Álvaro.
This ensures that mapping of non-ascii prompts

This makes it possible to include them only where they are used, so
we can avoid the conflict of the uid_t and gid_t datatypes that happened
in plperl (since plperl doesn't need the tar functions)
Move some of the tar functionality that existed mostly duplicated
in both pg_dump and the walsender basebackup functionality into
port/tar.c instead, so it can be used from both. It will also be
used by pg_basebackup in the future, which would've caused a third
copy of it around.

Our getnameinfo() replacement implementation in getaddrinfo.c failed
unless NI_NUMERICHOST and NI_NUMERICSERV were given as flags, because
it doesn't resolve host names, only numeric IPs. But per standard,
when those flags are not given, an implementation can still degrade to
not returning host names, so this restriction is unnecessary. When we
remove it, we can eliminate some code in postmaster.c that apparently
tried to work around that.
On some platforms these functions return NULL, rather than the more common
practice of returning a pointer to a zero-sized block of memory. Hack our
various wrapper functions to hide the difference by substituting a size
request of 1. This is probably not so important for the callers, who
should never touch the block anyway if they asked for size 0 --- but it's
important for the wrapper functions themselves, which mistakenly treated
the NULL result as an out-of-memory failure. This broke at least pg_dump
for the case of no user-defined aggregates, as per report from
Matthew Carrington.
Back-patch to 9.2 to fix the pg_dump issue. Given the lack of previous
complaints, it seems likely that there is no live bug in previous releases,
even though some of these functions were in place before that.
This function suppressed any stderr output from the called program, which
is unnecessary in the normal case and unhelpful in error cases. It also
gave a rather opaque message along the lines of "fgets failure: Success"
in case the called program failed to return anything on stdout. Since
we've seen multiple reports of people not understanding what's wrong when
pg_ctl reports this, improve the message.
Back-patch to all active branches.
Commit 3855968f32 added syntax, pg_dump,
psql support, and documentation, but the triggers didn't actually fire.
With this commit, they now do. This is still a pretty basic facility
overall because event triggers do not get a whole lot of information
about what the user is trying to do unless you write them in C; and
there's still no option to fire them anywhere except at the very
beginning of the execution sequence, but it's better than nothing,
and a good building block for future work.
Along the way, add a regression test for ALTER LARGE OBJECT, since
testing of event triggers reveals that we haven't got one.

join_path_components() tried to remove leading ".." components from its
tail argument, but it was not nearly bright enough to do so correctly
unless the head argument was (a) absolute and (b) canonicalized.
Rather than try to fix that logic, let's just get rid of it: there is no
correctness reason to remove "..", and cosmetic concerns can be taken
care of by a subsequent canonicalize_path() call. Per bug #6715 from
Greg Davidson.
Back-patch to all supported branches. It appears that pre-9.2, this
function is only used with absolute paths as head arguments, which is why
we'd not noticed the breakage before. However, third-party code might be
expecting this function to work in more general cases, so it seems wise
to back-patch.
In HEAD and 9.2, also make some minor cosmetic improvements to callers.
Because they use their own compilation rule, they don't use the
dependency tracking logic from Makefile.global. To make sure that
dependency tracking works anyway for the *_srv.o files, depend on
their *.o siblings as well, which do have proper dependencies. It's a
hack that might fail someday if there is a *_srv.o without a
corresponding *.o, but it works for now (and those would probably go
into src/backend/port/ anyway).
This makes it much more convenient to build tools for Postgres that are
separately compiled and require a matching CRC implementation.
To prevent multiple copies of the CRC polynomial tables being introduced
into the postgres binaries, they are now included in the static library
libpgport that is mainly meant for replacement system functions. That
seems like a bit of a kludge, but there's no better place.
This cleans up building of the tools pg_controldata and pg_resetxlog,
which previously had to build their own copies of pg_crc.o.
In the future, external programs that need access to the CRC tables can
include the tables directly from the new header file pg_crc_tables.h.

Per recent work by Peter Geoghegan, it's significantly faster to
tuplesort on a single sortkey if ApplySortComparator is inlined into
quicksort rather reached via a function pointer. It's also faster
in general to have a version of quicksort which is specialized for
sorting SortTuple objects rather than objects of arbitrary size and
type. This requires a couple of additional copies of the quicksort
logic, which in this patch are generate using a Perl script. There
might be some benefit in adding further specializations here too,
but thus far it's not clear that those gains are worth their weight
in code footprint.
The immediate impetus for this is that Noah Misch's patch to elide
unnecessary table and index rebuilds when changing typmod for temporal
types uses it; and this is extracted from that patch, with some
further commentary by me. But it seems logically separate from the
remainder of the patch, so I'm committing it separately; this is not
the first time someone has wanted fls() in the backend and probably
won't be the last.
If we end up using this in more performance-critical spots it may be
worthwhile to add some architecture-specific optimizations to our
src/port version of fls() - e.g. any x86 platform can implement this
using the assembly instruction BSRL. But performance won't matter
a bit for assessing typmod changes, so I'm not worried about that
right now.
In some hopeless situations, certain library functions in libpq and
libpgport quit the program. Use abort() for that instead of exit(),
so we don't interfere with the normal exit codes the program might
use, we clearly signal the abnormal termination, and the caller has a
chance of catching the termination.
This was originally pointed out by Debian's Lintian program.

This might rise to the level of a security bug if we were relying on

on Windows. ecpglib doesn't link with libpgport, but picks and compiles

wrapper from chklocale.c to a separate setlocale.c file, and include that

dots. I previously worked around this in initdb, mapping the known
problematic locale names to aliases that work, but Hiroshi Inoue pointed
out that that's not enough because even if you use one of the aliases, like
"Chinese_HKG", setlocale(LC_CTYPE, NULL) returns back the long form, ie.
"Chinese_Hong Kong S.A.R.". When we try to restore an old locale value by
passing that value back to setlocale(), it fails. Note that you are affected
by this bug also if you use one of those short-form names manually, so just
reverting the hack in initdb won't fix it.
To work around that, move the locale name mapping from initdb to a wrapper
around setlocale(), so that the mapping is invoked on every setlocale() call.
Also, add a few checks for failed setlocale() calls in the backend. These
calls shouldn't fail, and if they do there isn't much we can do about it,
but at least you'll get a warning.
Backpatch to 9.1, where the initdb hack was introduced. The Windows bug
affects older versions too if you set locale manually to one of the aliases,
but given the lack of complaints from the field, I'm hesitent to backpatch.
glibc renders random() thread-safe by wrapping a futex lock around it;
testing reveals that this limits the performance of pgbench on machines
with many CPU cores. Rather than switching to random_r(), which is
only available on GNU systems and crashes unless you use undocumented
alchemy to initialize the random state properly, switch to our built-in
implementation of erand48(), which is both thread-safe and concurrent.
Since the list of reasons not to use the operating system's erand48()
is getting rather long, rename ours to pg_erand48() (and similarly
for our implementations of lrand48() and srand48()) and just always
use those. We were already doing this on Cygwin anyway, and the
glibc implementation is not quite thread-safe, so pgbench wouldn't
be able to use that either.

Install just one instance of the "C" and "POSIX" collations into
pg_collation, rather than one per encoding. Make these instances exist

it's now possible to force comparisons and case-folding functions to use C
locale in an otherwise non-C database, whether or not the platform has
support for using any additional collations.
Fix up severely broken upper/lower/initcap functions, too: the C/POSIX
fastpath now does what it is supposed to, and non-default collations are
handled correctly in single-byte database encodings.

This can be used to build 64 bit Windows binaries, not only on 64 bit

Cygwin, Darwin and Linux.
Add support for reading back information about the symbolic

We don't actually need optreset, because we can easily fix the code to
ensure that it's cleanly restartable after having completed a scan over the

reversion of my change of yesterday in postmaster.c and postgres.c.
Back-patch to 8.4. Before that the getopt code was a bit different anyway.
mkdir_p and check_data_dir will be useful in CREATE TABLESPACE, since we
have agreed that that command should handle subdirectory creation just like
initdb creates the PGDATA directory. Push them into src/port/ so that they

pg_check_dir, just to be on the safe side. Add FreeBSD's copyright notice
to pgmkdirp.c, since that's where the code came from originally (this
really should have been in initdb.c). Very marginal code/comment cleanup.
1. Don't #include postgres.h in a frontend build.
2. Don't assume that the backend's symbol PGSQL_AF_INET6 has anything to do

to AF_INET, so we can just cater for both sets of values in one case
construct without fear of conflict.

Also, remove use of inet_ntoa() and use our own inet_net_ntop() in all

Per C standard, these are semantically the same thing; but saying NULL

The previous commit to make copydir() interruptible prevented
postgres.exe from linking on MinGW and Cygwin, because on those
platforms libpgport_srv.a can't freely reference symbols defined
by the backend. Since that code is already backend-specific anyway,
just move the whole file into the backend rather than adding further
kludges to deal with the symbols needed by CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS().
This probably needs some further cleanup, but this commit just moves
the file as-is, which should hopefully be enough to turn the
buildfarm green again.

rather than trying to implement the equivalent logic by hand. The motivation
for the original coding appears to have been to check with the effective uid's
permissions not the real uid's; but there is no longer any difference, because
we don't run the postmaster setuid (indeed, main.c enforces that they're the
same). Using access() means we will get it right in situations the original
coding failed to handle, such as ACL-based permissions. Besides it's a lot
shorter, cleaner, and more thread-safe. Per bug #5275 from James Bellinger.

Per discussion, this should result in defaulting to SQL_ASCII encoding.
The original coding could not support that because it conflated selection
of SQL_ASCII encoding with not being able to determine the encoding.
Adjust pg_get_encoding_from_locale()'s API to distinguish these cases,
and fix callers appropriately. Only initdb actually changes behavior,
since the other callers were perfectly content to consider these cases
equivalent.

no one has complained before and there's an easy workaround (namely,

of checkpoint. Although the checkpoint has been written to WAL at that point
already, so that all data is safe, and we'll retry removing the WAL segment at
the next checkpoint, if such a failure persists we won't be able to remove any
other old WAL segments either and will eventually run out of disk space. It's
better to treat the failure as non-fatal, and move on to clean any other WAL
segment and continue with any other end-of-checkpoint cleanup.
We don't normally expect any such failures, but on Windows it can happen with
some anti-virus or backup software that lock files without FILE_SHARE_DELETE
flag.
Also, the loop in pgrename() to retry when the file is locked was broken. If a
file is locked on Windows, you get ERROR_SHARE_VIOLATION, not
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED, at least on modern versions. Fix that, although I left
the check for ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED in there as well (presumably it was correct
in some environment), and added ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION to be consistent with
similar checks in pgwin32_open(). Reduce the timeout on the loop from 30s to
10s, on the grounds that since it's been broken, we've effectively had a
timeout of 0s and no-one has complained, so a smaller timeout is actually
closer to the old behavior. A longer timeout would mean that if recycling a
WAL file fails because it's locked for some reason, InstallXLogFileSegment()
will hold ControlFileLock for longer, potentially blocking other backends, so
a long timeout isn't totally harmless.
While we're at it, set errno correctly in pgrename().
Backpatch to 8.2, which is the oldest version supported on Windows. The xlog.c
changes would make sense on other platforms and thus on older versions as
well, but since there's no such locking issues on other platforms, it's not
worth it.
Update install-sh to that from Autoconf 2.63, plus our Darwin-specific

mkinstalldirs anymore.
Use AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in configure.in, so we can use mkdir -p when available

DATABASE. First, if a database was dropped, bgwriter would still try to unlink
the files that the rmtree() call by the DROP DATABASE command has already
deleted, or is just about to delete. Second, if a database is dropped, and
another database is created with the same OID, bgwriter would in the worst
case delete a relation in the new database that happened to get the same OID
as a dropped relation in the old database.
To fix these race conditions:
- make rmtree() ignore ENOENT errors. This fixes the 1st race condition.
- make ForgetDatabaseFsyncRequests forget unlink requests as well.
- force checkpoint on in dropdb on all platforms
Since ForgetDatabaseFsyncRequests() is asynchronous, the 2nd change isn't
enough on its own to fix the problem of dropping and creating a database with
same OID, but forcing a checkpoint on DROP DATABASE makes it sufficient.

The actual impact of this is probably small, since the problem cases
seem to always involve symlinks or sockets, which are unlikely to be
found in the directories that PG code might be scanning. But it's
clearly trouble waiting to happen, so patch all the way back anyway.

per suggestion from Dann Corbit. This adds at worst O(N*lgN) overhead, and
usually far less, while sometimes allowing a subfile sort to finish in O(N)
time. Preliminary testing says this is an improvement over the basic
Bentley & McIlroy code for many nonrandom inputs, and it costs almost
nothing when the input is random.

Wouldn't it be better to use the UINT64CONST macro? I realize this
file is Windows-only, but we do worry about more than one compiler
on that platform.

/dev/tty, but it isn't a device file and doesn't work as expected.
This fixes a known bug where psql does not prompt for a password on some
Win32 systems.
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

it later. This fixes a problem where EXEC_BACKEND didn't have progname
set, causing a segfault if log_min_messages was set below debug2 and our
own snprintf.c was being used.
Also alway strdup() progname.
Backpatch to 8.1.X and 8.0.X.
#define HIGHBIT (0x80)
#define IS_HIGHBIT_SET(ch) ((unsigned char)(ch) & HIGHBIT)
and removed CSIGNBIT and mapped it uses to HIGHBIT. I have also added
uses for IS_HIGHBIT_SET where appropriate. This change is
purely for code clarity.
differ by more than the last directory component. Instead of insisting
that they match up to the last component, accept whatever common prefix
they have, and try to replace the non-matching part of bin_path with
the non-matching part of target_path in the actual executable's path.
In one way this is tighter than the old code, because it insists on
a match to the part of bin_path we want to substitute for, rather than
blindly stripping one directory component from the executable's path.
Per gripe from Martin Pitt and subsequent discussion.
I have the problem, when building by MS-VC6.
An error occurs in the 8.1.0 present source codes.
nmake -f win32.mak
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(244) : error C2065: 'WSA_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY'
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(342) : error C2065: 'WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND'
This is used by winsock2.h. However, Construction of a windows base is
winsock.h.
Then, Since MinGW has special environment, this is right. but, it is not
found in VC6.
Furthermore, in getaddrinfo.c, IPV6-API is used by
LoadLibraryA("ws2_32");
Referring to of dll the external memory generates this violation by VC6
specification.
I considered whether the whole should have been converted into winsock2.
However, Now, DLL of MinGW creation operates wonderfully as it is.
That's right, it has pliability by replacement of simple DLL.
Then, I propose the system using winsock(non IPV6) in construction of
VC6.

incorrect implementation of argument reordering, arbitrary limit of output
size for sprintf and fprintf, willingness to access more bytes than "%.Ns"
specification allows, wrong formatting of LONGLONG_MIN, various field-padding
bugs and omissions. I believe it now accurately implements a subset of
the Single Unix Spec requirements (remaining unimplemented features are
documented, too). Bruce Momjian and Tom Lane.
comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
