Historically there's been a hard-wired assumption here that no line of a .pgpass file could be as long as NAMEDATALEN*5 bytes. That's a bit shaky to start off with, because (a) there's no reason to suppose that host names fit in NAMEDATALEN, and (b) this figure fails to allow for backslash escape characters. However, it fails completely if someone wants to use a very long password, and we're now hearing reports of people wanting to use "security tokens" that can run up to several hundred bytes. Another angle is that the file is specified to allow comment lines, but there's no reason to assume that long comment lines aren't possible. Rather than guessing at what might be a more suitable limit, let's replace the fixed-size buffer with an expansible PQExpBuffer. That adds one malloc/free cycle to the typical use-case, but that's surely pretty cheap relative to the I/O this code has to do. Also, add TAP test cases to exercise this code, because there was no test coverage before. This reverts most of commit |

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/.
