c.h #includes a number of core libc header files, such as <stdio.h>.
There's no point in re-including these after having read postgres.h,
postgres_fe.h, or c.h; so remove code that did so.
While at it, also fix some places that were ignoring our standard pattern
of "include postgres[_fe].h, then system header files, then other Postgres
header files". While there's not any great magic in doing it that way
rather than system headers last, it's silly to have just a few files
deviating from the general pattern. (But I didn't attempt to enforce this
globally, only in files I was touching anyway.)
I'd be the first to say that this is mostly compulsive neatnik-ism,
but over time it might save enough compile cycles to be useful.
nan_test.pgc supposed that it could unconditionally #define isnan()
and isinf() on WIN32. This was evidently copied at some point from
src/include/port/win32.h, but nowadays there's a test on _MSC_VER
there. Make nan_test.pgc look the same.
Per buildfarm warnings. There's no evidence this produces anything
worse than a warning, and besides it's only a test case, so I don't
feel a need to back-patch.
Per discussion, the time has come to do this. The handwriting has been
on the wall at least since 9.0 that this would happen someday, whenever
it got to be too much of a burden to support the float-timestamp option.
The triggering factor now is the discovery that there are multiple bugs
in the code that attempts to implement use of integer timestamps in the
replication protocol even when the server is built for float timestamps.
The internal float timestamps leak into the protocol fields in places.
While we could fix the identified bugs, there's a very high risk of
introducing more. Trying to build a wall that would positively prevent
mixing integer and float timestamps is more complexity than we want to
undertake to maintain a long-deprecated option. The fact that these
bugs weren't found through testing also indicates a lack of interest
in float timestamps.
This commit disables configure's --disable-integer-datetimes switch
(it'll still accept --enable-integer-datetimes, though), removes direct
references to USE_INTEGER_DATETIMES, and removes discussion of float
timestamps from the user documentation. A considerable amount of code is
rendered dead by this, but removing that will occur as separate mop-up.

Coverity complained that we might pass a null pointer to strcmp()
if PQresultErrorField were to return NULL. That shouldn't be possible,
since the server is supposed to always provide some SQLSTATE or other
in an error message. But we usually defend against such hazards, and
it only takes a little more code to do so here.
There's no good reason to think this is a live bug, so no back-patch.
Formerly an alternate password file could only be selected via the
environment variable PGPASSFILE; now it can also be selected via a
new connection parameter "passfile", corresponding to the conventions
for most other connection parameters. There was some concern about
this creating a security weakness, but it was agreed that that argument
was pretty thin, and there are clear use-cases for handling password
files this way.

Clean up some technical debt left behind by commit 72b1e3a21: instead of
quickly hacking the name of base_yylex() with a #define, set it properly
with "%option prefix". This causes the names of pgc.l's other exported
symbols to change as well, so run around and modify the outside references
to them as needed. Similarly, make pgc.l's external references to
base_yylval use that variable's true name instead of a macro.
The reason for doing this now is that the quick-hack solution will fail
with future versions of flex, as reported by Дилян Палаузов.
Hence, back-patch into 9.6 where the previous commit appeared, since
it's likely people will build 9.6 with newer flex versions during
its lifetime.

If the PAGER environment variable is set but contains an empty string,
psql would pass it to "sh" which would silently exit, causing whatever
query output we were printing to vanish entirely. This is quite
mystifying; it took a long time for us to figure out that this was the
cause of Joseph Brenner's trouble report. Rather than allowing that
to happen, we should treat this as another way to specify "no pager".
(We could alternatively treat it as selecting the default pager, but
it seems more likely that the former is what the user meant to achieve
by setting PAGER this way.)
Nonempty, but all-white-space, PAGER values have the same behavior, and
it's pretty easy to test for that, so let's handle that case the same way.
Most other cases of faulty PAGER values will result in the shell printing
some kind of complaint to stderr, which should be enough to diagnose the
problem, so we don't need to work harder than this. (Note that there's
been an intentional decision not to be very chatty about apparent failure
returns from the pager process, since that may happen if, eg, the user
quits the pager with control-C or some such. I'd just as soon not start
splitting hairs about which exit codes might merit making our own report.)
libpq's old PQprint() function was already on board with ignoring empty
PAGER values, but for consistency, make it ignore all-white-space values
as well.
It's been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

If we failed to connect to one or more hosts, and then afterwards we
find one that fails to be read-write, the latter error message was
clobbering any earlier ones. Repair.
Mithun Cy, slightly revised by me.
Commit 274bb2b385 caused PQhost() to
return the value of the hostaddr parameter rather than the relevant
host when the latter parameter was specified. That's wrong. Commit
9a1d0af4ad then amplified the damage by
using PQhost() in more places, so that the SSL test suite started
failing.
Report by Andreas Karlsson; patch by me.
Commit 274bb2b385 made it possible to
specify multiple IPs in a connection string, but that's not good
enough for the case where you have a read-write master and a bunch of
read-only standbys and want to connect to whichever server is the
master at the current time. This commit allows that, by making it
possible to specify target_session_attrs=read-write as a connection
parameter.
There was extensive discussion of the best name for the connection
parameter and its values as well as the best way to distinguish master
and standbys. For now, adopt the same solution as JDBC: if the user
wants a read-write connection, issue 'show transaction_read_only' and
rejection the connection if the result is 'on'. In the future, we
could add additional values of this new target_session_attrs parameter
that issue different queries; or we might have some way of
distinguishing the server type without resorting to an SQL query; but
right now, we have this, and that's (hopefully) a good start.

Iacob, Takayuki Tsunakawa, and Craig Ringer; code review by me. I

On Windows, libc will mask \r\n line endings for us, since we read the
password file in text mode. But that doesn't happen on Unix. People
who share password files across both systems might have \r\n line endings
in a file they use on Unix, so as a convenience, ignore trailing \r.

In passing, put the existing check for empty line somewhere where it's
actually useful, ie after stripping the newline not before.

Leaving the error in the error queue used to be harmless, because the
X509_STORE_load_locations() call used to be the last step in
initialize_SSL(), and we would clear the queue before the next
SSL_connect() call. But previous commit moved things around. The symptom
was that if a CRL file was not found, and one of the subsequent
initialization steps, like loading the client certificate or private key,
failed, we would incorrectly print the "no such file" error message from
the earlier X509_STORE_load_locations() call as the reason.
Backpatch to all supported versions, like the previous patch.
There were several issues with the old coding:
1. There was a race condition, if two threads opened a connection at the
same time. We used a mutex around SSL_CTX_* calls, but that was not
enough, e.g. if one thread SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations() with one
path, and another thread set it with a different path, before the first
thread got to establish the connection.
2. Opening two different connections, with different sslrootcert settings,
seemed to fail outright with "SSL error: block type is not 01". Not sure
why.
3. We created the SSL object, before calling SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations
and SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file on the SSL context. That was
wrong, because the options set on the SSL context are propagated to the
SSL object, when the SSL object is created. If they are set after the
SSL object has already been created, they won't take effect until the
next connection. (This is bug #14329)
At least some of these could've been fixed while still using a shared
context, but it would've been more complicated and error-prone. To keep
things simple, let's just use a separate SSL context for each connection,
and accept the overhead.

We weren't terribly consistent about whether to call Apple's OS "OS X"
or "Mac OS X", and the former is probably confusing to people who aren't
Apple users. Now that Apple has rebranded it "macOS", follow their lead
to establish a consistent naming pattern. Also, avoid the use of the
ancient project name "Darwin", except as the port code name which does not
seem desirable to change. (In short, this patch touches documentation and
comments, but no actual code.)
I didn't touch contrib/start-scripts/osx/, either. I suspect those are
obsolete and due for a rewrite, anyway.
I dithered about whether to apply this edit to old release notes, but
those were responsible for quite a lot of the inconsistencies, so I ended
up changing them too. Anyway, Apple's being ahistorical about this,
so why shouldn't we be?
This makes the -? and -V options work consistently with other binaries.
--help and --version are now only recognized as the first option, i.e.
"ecpg --foobar --help" no longer prints the help, but that's consistent
with most of our other binaries, too.

Backport to 9.5 and 9.6, like the patch that broke this. In the
back-branches, there are still a few OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER checks left,
to check for OpenSSL 0.9.8 or 0.9.7. I left them as they were - LibreSSL

Changes needed to build at all:
- Check for SSL_new in configure, now that SSL_library_init is a macro.
- Do not access struct members directly. This includes some new code in
pgcrypto, to use the resource owner mechanism to ensure that we don't
leak OpenSSL handles, now that we can't embed them in other structs
anymore.
- RAND_SSLeay() -> RAND_OpenSSL()
Changes that were needed to silence deprecation warnings, but were not
strictly necessary:
- RAND_pseudo_bytes() -> RAND_bytes().
- SSL_library_init() and OpenSSL_config() -> OPENSSL_init_ssl()
- ASN1_STRING_data() -> ASN1_STRING_get0_data()
- DH_generate_parameters() -> DH_generate_parameters()
- Locking callbacks are not needed with OpenSSL 1.1.0 anymore. (Good
riddance!)
Also change references to SSLEAY_VERSION_NUMBER with OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER,
for the sake of consistency. OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER has existed since time
immemorial.
Fix SSL test suite to work with OpenSSL 1.1.0. CA certificates must have
the "CA:true" basic constraint extension now, or OpenSSL will refuse them.
Regenerate the test certificates with that. The "openssl" binary, used to
generate the certificates, is also now more picky, and throws an error
if an X509 extension is specified in "req_extensions", but that section
is empty.
Backpatch to all supported branches, per popular demand. In back-branches,
we still support OpenSSL 0.9.7 and above. OpenSSL 0.9.6 should still work
too, but I didn't test it. In master, we only support 0.9.8 and above.

When building libpq, ip.c and md5.c were symlinked or copied from
src/backend/libpq into src/interfaces/libpq, but now that we have a
directory specifically for routines that are shared between the server and
client binaries, src/common/, move them there.
Some routines in ip.c were only used in the backend. Keep those in
src/backend/libpq, but rename to ifaddr.c to avoid confusion with the file
that's now in common.
Fix the comment in src/common/Makefile to reflect how libpq actually links
those files.

OpenSSL officially only supports 1.0.1 and newer. Some OS distributions

interesting anymore. Let's simplify things by removing compatibility code.
Andreas Karlsson, with small changes by me.
This has been requested a few times, but the use-case for it was never
entirely clear. The reason for adding it now is that transmission of
error reports from parallel workers fails when NLS is active, because
pq_parse_errornotice() wrongly assumes that the existing severity field
is nonlocalized. There are other ways we could have fixed that, but the
other options were basically kluges, whereas this way provides something
that's at least arguably a useful feature along with the bug fix.
Per report from Jakob Egger. Back-patch into 9.6, because otherwise
parallel query is essentially unusable in non-English locales. The
problem exists in 9.5 as well, but we don't want to risk changing
on-the-wire behavior in 9.5 (even though the possibility of new error
fields is specifically called out in the protocol document). It may
be sufficient to leave the issue unfixed in 9.5, given the very limited
usefulness of pq_parse_errornotice in that version.

Up to now we've manually adjusted these numbers in several different
Makefiles at the start of each development cycle. While that's not
much work, it's easily forgotten, so let's get rid of it by setting
the SO_MINOR_VERSION values directly from $(MAJORVERSION).
In the case of libpq, this dev cycle's value of SO_MINOR_VERSION happens
to be "10" anyway, so this switch is transparent. For ecpg's shared
libraries, this will result in skipping one or two minor version numbers
between v9.6 and v10, which seems like no big problem; and it was a bit
inconsistent that they didn't have equal minor version numbers anyway.
Discussion: <21969.1471287988@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Once upon a time, it made sense for the ecpg preprocessor to have its
own version number, because it used a manually-maintained grammar that
wasn't always in sync with the core grammar. But those days are
thankfully long gone, leaving only a maintenance nuisance behind.
Let's use the PG v10 version numbering changeover as an excuse to get
rid of the ecpg version number and just have ecpg identify itself by
PG_VERSION. From the user's standpoint, ecpg will go from "4.12" in
the 9.6 branch to "10" in the 10 branch, so there's no failure of
monotonicity.

This is a good bit more complicated than the average new-version stamping

NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision
and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had
something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value,
but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed,
any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format;
which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000.
Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit
on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was
especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as
long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to
avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what
is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code.
Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the
number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore
hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format
limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want.
In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what
the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches.
Per gripe from Aravind Kumar. Back-patch to all supported branches,
since they all contain the documentation claim about allowed range of
NUMERIC (cf commit cabf5d84b).

Security: CVE-2016-5424
Beginning with the next development cycle, PG servers will report two-part
not three-part version numbers. Fix libpq so that it will compute the
correct numeric representation of such server versions for reporting by
PQserverVersion(). It's desirable to get this into the field and
back-patched ASAP, so that older clients are more likely to understand the
new server version numbering by the time any such servers are in the wild.
(The results with an old client would probably not be catastrophic anyway
for a released server; for example "10.1" would be interpreted as 100100
which would be wrong in detail but would not likely cause an old client to
misbehave badly. But "10devel" or "10beta1" would result in sversion==0
which at best would result in disabling all use of modern features.)

To ensure that "make installcheck" can be used safely against an existing
installation, we need to be careful about what global object names
(database, role, and tablespace names) we use; otherwise we might
accidentally clobber important objects. There's been a weak consensus that
test databases should have names including "regression", and that test role
names should start with "regress_", but we didn't have any particular rule
about tablespace names; and neither of the other rules was followed with
any consistency either.
This commit moves us a long way towards having a hard-and-fast rule that
regression test databases must have names including "regression", and that
test role and tablespace names must start with "regress_". It's not
completely there because I did not touch some test cases in rolenames.sql
that test creation of special role names like "session_user". That will
require some rethinking of exactly what we want to test, whereas the intent
of this patch is just to hit all the cases in which the needed renamings
are cosmetic.
There is no enforcement mechanism in this patch either, but if we don't
add one we can expect that the tests will soon be violating the convention
again. Again, that's not such a cosmetic change and it will require
discussion. (But I did use a quick-hack enforcement patch to find these
cases.)
