Thomas Munro c159b0383f Fix WaitEventSetWait() buffer overrun.
The WAIT_USE_EPOLL and WAIT_USE_KQUEUE implementations of
WaitEventSetWaitBlock() confused the size of their internal buffer with
the size of the caller's output buffer, and could ask the kernel for too
many events.  In fact the set of events retrieved from the kernel needs
to be able to fit in both buffers, so take the smaller of the two.

The WAIT_USE_POLL and WAIT_USE WIN32 implementations didn't have this
confusion.

This probably didn't come up before because we always used the same
number in both places, but commit 7389aad6 calculates a dynamic size at
construction time, while using MAXLISTEN for its output event buffer on
the stack.  That seems like a reasonable thing to want to do, so
consider this to be a pre-existing bug worth fixing.

As discovered by valgrind on skink.

Back-patch to all supported releases for epoll, and to release 13 for
the kqueue part, which copied the incorrect epoll code.

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:

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.
