Tom Lane 38df84c65e Eliminate fixed token-length limit in hba.c.
Historically, hba.c limited tokens in the authentication configuration
files (pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf) to less than 256 bytes.  We have
seen a few reports of this limit causing problems; notably, for
moderately-complex LDAP configurations.  Let's get rid of the fixed
limit by using a StringInfo instead of a fixed-size buffer.
This actually takes less code than before, since we can get rid of
a nontrivial error recovery stanza.  It's doubtless a hair slower,
but parsing the content of the HBA files should in no way be
performance-critical.

Although this is a pretty straightforward patch, it doesn't seem
worth the risk to back-patch given the small number of complaints
to date.  In released branches, we'll just raise MAX_TOKEN to
ameliorate the problem.

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/.
