Fix a small number of places that were testing the result of snprintf() but doing so incorrectly. The right test for buffer overrun, per C99, is "result >= bufsize" not "result > bufsize". Some places were also checking for failure with "result == -1", but the standard only says that a negative value is delivered on failure. (Note that this only makes these places correct if snprintf() delivers C99-compliant results. But at least now these places are consistent with all the other places where we assume that.) Also, make psql_start_test() and isolation_start_test() check for buffer overrun while constructing their shell commands. There seems like a higher risk of overrun, with more severe consequences, here than there is for the individual file paths that are made elsewhere in the same functions, so this seemed like a worthwhile change. Also fix guc.c's do_serialize() to initialize errno = 0 before calling vsnprintf. In principle, this should be unnecessary because vsnprintf should have set errno if it returns a failure indication ... but the other two places this coding pattern is cribbed from don't assume that, so let's be consistent. These errors are all very old, so back-patch as appropriate. I think that only the shell command overrun cases are even theoretically reachable in practice, but there's not much point in erroneous error checks.

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/.
