The first iteration of the signal-checking loop would compute sigmask(0)
which expands to 1<<(-1) which is undefined behavior according to the
C standard. The lack of field reports of trouble suggest that it
evaluates to 0 on all existing Windows compilers, but that's hardly
something to rely on. Since signal 0 isn't a queueable signal anyway,
we can just make the loop iterate from 1 instead, and save a few cycles
as well as avoiding the undefined behavior.
In passing, avoid evaluating the volatile expression UNBLOCKED_SIGNAL_QUEUE
twice in a row; there's no reason to waste cycles like that.
Noted by Aleksander Alekseev, though this isn't his proposed fix.

We had two copies of this function in the backend and libpq, which was
already pretty bogus, but it turns out that we need it in some other
programs that don't use libpq (such as pg_test_fsync). So put it where
it probably should have been all along. The signal-mask-initialization
support in src/backend/libpq/pqsignal.c stays where it is, though, since
we only need that in the backend.

Use something like "error code %lu" for reporting GetLastError()
values on Windows. Previously, a mix of different wordings and
formats were in use.

There was a race condition where the receiving pipe could be closed by the
child thread if the main thread was pre-empted before it got a chance to
create a new one, and the dispatch thread ran to completion during that time.
One symptom of this is that rows in pg_listener could be dropped under
heavy load.
Analysis and original patch by Radu Ilie, with some small
modifications by Magnus Hagander.

This removes the direct dependency on shell32.dll and user32.dll, which
eats a lot of "desktop heap" for each backend that's started. The
desktop heap is a very limited resource, causing backends to no
longer start once it's been exhausted.
We still have indirect depdendencies on user32.dll through third party
libraries, but those can't easily be removed.

pg_usleep at all. Instead call the replacement function in
port/win32/signal.c by that name. Avoids tricky macro-redefinition
logic and suppresses a compiler warning; furthermore it ensures that
no one can accidentally use the non-signal-aware version of pg_usleep
in a Windows backend.

comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...

even uglier than it was already :-(. Also, on Windows only, use temporary
shared memory segments instead of ordinary files to pass over critical
variable values from postmaster to child processes. Magnus Hagander

on Win32 that parallels the can't-run-as-root check on Unix.

It works on the principle of turning sockets into non-blocking, and then
emulate blocking behaviour on top of that, while allowing signals to
run. Signals are now implemented using an event instead of APCs, thus
getting rid of the issue of APCs not being compatible with "old style"
sockets functions.
It also moves the win32 specific code away from pqsignal.h/c into
port/win32, and also removes the "thread style workaround" of the APC
issue previously in place.
In order to make things work, a few things are also changed in pgstat.c:
1) There is now a separate pipe to the collector and the bufferer. This
is required because the pipe will otherwise only be signalled in one of
the processes when the postmaster goes down. The MS winsock code for
select() must have some kind of workaround for this behaviour, but I
have found no stable way of doing that. You really are not supposed to
use the same socket from more than one process (unless you use
WSADuplicateSocket(), in which case the docs specifically say that only
one will be flagged).
2) The check for "postmaster death" is moved into a separate select()
call after the main loop. The previous behaviour select():ed on the
postmaster pipe, while later explicitly saying "we do NOT check for
postmaster exit inside the loop".
The issue was that the code relies on the same select() call seeing both
the postmaster pipe *and* the pgstat pipe go away. This does not always
happen, and it appears that useing WSAEventSelect() makes it even more
common that it does not.
Since it's only called when the process exits, I don't think using a
separate select() call will have any significant impact on how the stats
collector works.
