Tom Lane 1e6e98f763 Fix libpq's implementation of per-host connection timeouts. 
Commit 5f374fe7a attempted to turn the connect_timeout from an overall
maximum time limit into a per-host limit, but it didn't do a great job of
that.  The timer would only get restarted if we actually detected timeout
within connectDBComplete(), not if we changed our attention to a new host
for some other reason.  In that case the old timeout continued to run,
possibly causing a premature timeout failure for the new host.

Fix that, and also tweak the logic so that if we do get a timeout,
we advance to the next available IP address, not to the next host name.
There doesn't seem to be a good reason to assume that all the IP
addresses supplied for a given host name will necessarily fail the
same way as the current one.  Moreover, this conforms better to the
admittedly-vague documentation statement that the timeout is "per
connection attempt".  I changed that to "per host name or IP address"
to be clearer.  (Note that reconnections to the same server, such as for
switching protocol version or SSL status, don't get their own separate
timeout; that was true before and remains so.)

Also clarify documentation about the interpretation of connect_timeout
values less than 2.

This seems like a bug, so back-patch to v10 where this logic came in.

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.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
