* Tidy up locale thread safety in ECPG library.Peter Eisentraut2025-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove setlocale() and _configthreadlocal() as fallback strategy on systems that don't have uselocale(), where ECPG tries to control LC_NUMERIC formatting on input and output of floating point numbers. It was probably broken on some systems (NetBSD), and the code was also quite messy and complicated, with obsolete configure tests (Windows). It was also arguably broken, or at least had unstated environmental requirements, if pgtypeslib code was called directly. Instead, introduce PG_C_LOCALE to refer to the "C" locale as a locale_t value. It maps to the special constant LC_C_LOCALE when defined by libc (macOS, NetBSD), or otherwise uses a process-lifetime locale_t that is allocated on first use, just as ECPG previously did itself. The new replacement might be more widely useful. Then change the float parsing and printing code to pass that to _l() functions where appropriate. Unfortunately the portability of those functions is a bit complicated. First, many obvious and useful _l() functions are missing from POSIX, though most standard libraries define some of them anyway. Second, although the thread-safe save/restore technique can be used to replace the missing ones, Windows and NetBSD refused to implement standard uselocale(). They might have a point: "wide scope" uselocale() is hard to combine with other code and error-prone, especially in library code. Luckily they have the _l() functions we want so far anyway. So we have to be prepared for both ways of doing things: 1. In ECPG, use strtod_l() for parsing, and supply a port.h replacement using uselocale() over a limited scope if missing. 2. Inside our own snprintf.c, use three different approaches to format floats. For frontend code, call libc's snprintf_l(), or wrap libc's snprintf() in uselocale() if it's missing. For backend code, snprintf.c can keep assuming that the global locale's LC_NUMERIC is "C" and call libc's snprintf() without change, for now. (It might eventually be possible to call our in-tree Ryū routines to display floats in snprintf.c, given the C-locale-always remit of our in-tree snprintf(), but this patch doesn't risk changing anything that complicated.)

* Use <stdint.h> and <inttypes.h> for c.h integers.Thomas Munro2024-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Redefine our exact width types with standard C99 types and macros, including int64_t, INT64_MAX, INT64_C(), PRId64 etc. We were already using <stdint.h> types in a few places. One complication is that Windows' <inttypes.h> uses format strings like "%I64d", "%I32", "%I" for PRI*64, PRI*32, PTR*PTR, instead of mapping to other standardized format strings like "%lld" etc as seen on other known systems. Teach our snprintf.c to understand them. This removes a lot of configure clutter, and should also allow 64-bit numbers and other standard types to be used in localized messages without casting.

* Revert "Blind attempt to fix _configthreadlocale() failures on MinGW."Thomas Munro2024-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 2cf91ccb73ce888c44e3751548fb7c77e87335f2. When using the old msvcrt.dll, MinGW would supply its own dummy version of _configthreadlocale() that just returns -1 if you try to use it. For a time we tolerated that to shut the build farm up. We would fall back to code that was enough for the tests to pass, but it would surely have risked crashing a real multithreaded program. We don't need that kludge anymore, because we can count on ucrt. We expect the real _configthreadlocale() to be present, and the ECPG tests will now fail if it isn't. The workaround was dead code and it's time to revert it. (A later patch still under review proposes to remove this use of _configthreadlocale() completely but we're unwinding this code in steps.)

* Remove configure check for _configthreadlocale().Thomas Munro2024-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | All modern Windows systems have _configthreadlocale(). It was first introduced in msvcr80.dll from Visual Studio 2005. Historically, MinGW was stuck on even older msvcrt.dll, but added its own dummy implementation of the function when using msvcrt.dll years ago anyway, effectively rendering the configure test useless. In practice we don't encounter the dummy anymore because modern MinGW uses ucrt.

* ecpg: avoid adding whitespace around '&' in connection URLs.Tom Lane2024-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | The preprocessor really should not have done this to begin with. The space after '&' was masked by ECPGconnect's skipping spaces before option keywords, and the space before by dint of libpq being (mostly) insensitive to trailing space in option values.

* Remove race conditions between ECPGdebug() and ecpg_log().Tom Lane2024-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Coverity complains that ECPGdebug is accessing debugstream without holding debug_mutex, which is a fair complaint: we should take debug_mutex while changing the settings ecpg_log looks at. In some branches it also complains about unlocked use of simple_debug. I think it's intentional and safe to have a quick unlocked check of simple_debug at the start of ecpg_log, since that early exit will always be taken in non-debug cases. But we should recheck simple_debug after acquiring the mutex. In the worst case, calling ECPGdebug concurrently with ecpg_log in another thread could result in a null-pointer dereference due to debugstream transiently being NULL while simple_debug isn't 0. This is largely hypothetical, since it's unlikely anybody uses ECPGdebug() at all in the field, and our own regression tests don't seem to be hitting the theoretical race conditions either. Still, if we're going to the trouble of having mutexes here, we ought to be using them in a way that's actually safe not just almost safe. Hence, back-patch to all supported branches.

* Avoid concurrent calls to bindtextdomain().Tom Lane2024-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We previously supposed that it was okay for different threads to call bindtextdomain() concurrently (cf. commit 1f655fdc3). It now emerges that there's at least one gettext implementation in which that triggers an abort() crash, so let's stop doing that. Add mutexes guarding libpq's and ecpglib's calls, which are the only ones that need worry about multithreaded callers. Note: in libpq, we could perhaps have piggybacked on default_threadlock() to avoid defining a new mutex variable. I judge that not terribly safe though, since libpq_gettext could be called from code that is holding the default mutex. If that were the first such call in the process, it'd fail. An extra mutex is cheap insurance against unforeseen interactions. Per bug #18312 from Christian Maurer. Back-patch to all supported versions.

* Clean up Windows-specific mutex code in libpq and ecpglib.Tom Lane2024-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix pthread-win32.h and pthread-win32.c to provide a more complete emulation of POSIX pthread mutexes: define PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER and make sure that pthread_mutex_lock() can operate on a mutex object that's been initialized that way. Then we don't need the duplicative platform-specific logic in default_threadlock() and pgtls_init(), which we'd otherwise need yet a third copy of for an upcoming bug fix. Also, since default_threadlock() supposes that pthread_mutex_lock() cannot fail, try to ensure that that's actually true, by getting rid of the malloc call that was formerly involved in initializing an emulated mutex. We can define an extra state for the spinlock field instead. Also, replace the similar code in ecpglib/misc.c with this version. While ecpglib's version at least had a POSIX-compliant API, it also had the potential of failing during mutex init (but here, because of CreateMutex failure rather than malloc failure). Since all of misc.c's callers ignore failures, it seems like a wise idea to avoid failures here too. A further improvement in this area could be to unify libpq's and ecpglib's implementations into a src/port/pthread-win32.c file. But that doesn't seem like a bug fix, so I'll desist for now. In preparation for the aforementioned bug fix, back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/264860.1707163416@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Remove distprepPeter Eisentraut2023-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A PostgreSQL release tarball contains a number of prebuilt files, in particular files produced by bison, flex, perl, and well as html and man documentation. We have done this consistent with established practice at the time to not require these tools for building from a tarball. Some of these tools were hard to get, or get the right version of, from time to time, and shipping the prebuilt output was a convenience to users. Now this has at least two problems: One, we have to make the build system(s) work in two modes: Building from a git checkout and building from a tarball. This is pretty complicated, but it works so far for autoconf/make. It does not currently work for meson; you can currently only build with meson from a git checkout. Making meson builds work from a tarball seems very difficult or impossible. One particular problem is that since meson requires a separate build directory, we cannot make the build update files like gram.h in the source tree. So if you were to build from a tarball and update gram.y, you will have a gram.h in the source tree and one in the build tree, but the way things work is that the compiler will always use the one in the source tree. So you cannot, for example, make any gram.y changes when building from a tarball. This seems impossible to fix in a non-horrible way. Second, there is increased interest nowadays in precisely tracking the origin of software. We can reasonably track contributions into the git tree, and users can reasonably track the path from a tarball to packages and downloads and installs. But what happens between the git tree and the tarball is obscure and in some cases non-reproducible. The solution for both of these issues is to get rid of the step that adds prebuilt files to the tarball. The tarball now only contains what is in the git tree (*). Getting the additional build dependencies is no longer a problem nowadays, and the complications to keep these dual build modes working are significant. And of course we want to get the meson build system working universally. This commit removes the make distprep target altogether. The make dist target continues to do its job, it just doesn't call distprep anymore. (*) - The tarball also contains the INSTALL file that is built at make dist time, but not by distprep. This is unchanged for now. The make maintainer-clean target, whose job it is to remove the prebuilt files in addition to what make distclean does, is now just an alias to make distprep. (In practice, it is probably obsolete given that git clean is available.)

* ecpg: Fix handling of strings in ORACLE compat code with SQLDAMichael Paquier2023-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When compiled with -C ORACLE, ecpg_get_data() had a one-off issue where it would incorrectly store the null terminator byte to str[-1] when varcharsize is 0, which is something that can happen when using SQLDA. This would eat 1 byte from the previous field stored, corrupting the results generated. All the callers of ecpg_get_data() estimate and allocate enough storage for the data received, and the fix of this commit relies on this assumption. Note that this maps to the case where no padding or truncation is required. This issue has been introduced by 3b7ab43 with the Oracle compatibility option, so backpatch down to v11.

* meson: Add support for building with precompiled headersAndres Freund2022-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This substantially speeds up building for windows, due to the vast amount of headers included via windows.h. A cross build from linux targetting mingw goes from 994.11user 136.43system 0:31.58elapsed 3579%CPU to 422.41user 89.05system 0:14.35elapsed 3562%CPU The wins on windows are similar-ish (but I don't have a system at hand just now for actual numbers). Targetting other operating systems the wins are far smaller (tested linux, macOS, FreeBSD). For now precompiled headers are disabled by default, it's not clear how well they work on all platforms. E.g. on FreeBSD gcc doesn't seem to have working support, but clang does. When doing a full build precompiled headers are only beneficial for targets with multiple .c files, as meson builds a separate precompiled header for each target (so that different compilation options take effect). This commit therefore only changes target with at least two .c files to use precompiled headers. Because this commit adds b_pch=false to the default_options new build directories will have precompiled headers disabled by default, however existing build directories will continue use the default value of b_pch, which is true. Note that using precompiled headers with ccache requires setting CCACHE_SLOPPINESS=pch_defines,time_macros to get hits.

* meson: Add initial version of meson based build systemAndres Freund2022-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Autoconf is showing its age, fewer and fewer contributors know how to wrangle it. Recursive make has a lot of hard to resolve dependency issues and slow incremental rebuilds. Our home-grown MSVC build system is hard to maintain for developers not using Windows and runs tests serially. While these and other issues could individually be addressed with incremental improvements, together they seem best addressed by moving to a more modern build system. After evaluating different build system choices, we chose to use meson, to a good degree based on the adoption by other open source projects. We decided that it's more realistic to commit a relatively early version of the new build system and mature it in tree. This commit adds an initial version of a meson based build system. It supports building postgres on at least AIX, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Windows (however only gcc is supported on aix, solaris). For Windows/MSVC postgres can now be built with ninja (faster, particularly for incremental builds) and msbuild (supporting the visual studio GUI, but building slower). Several aspects (e.g. Windows rc file generation, PGXS compatibility, LLVM bitcode generation, documentation adjustments) are done in subsequent commits requiring further review. Other aspects (e.g. not installing test-only extensions) are not yet addressed. When building on Windows with msbuild, builds are slower when using a visual studio version older than 2019, because those versions do not support MultiToolTask, required by meson for intra-target parallelism. The plan is to remove the MSVC specific build system in src/tools/msvc soon after reaching feature parity. However, we're not planning to remove the autoconf/make build system in the near future. Likely we're going to keep at least the parts required for PGXS to keep working around until all supported versions build with meson.

* Remove fallbacks for strtoll, strtoull.Thomas Munro2022-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | strtoll was backfilled with either __strtoll or strtoq on systems without strtoll. The last such system on the buildfarm was an ancient HP-UX animal. We don't support HP-UX anymore, so remove. On other systems strtoll was present, but did not have a declaration. The last known instance on the buildfarm was running an ancient OSX and shut down in 2019.

* Revert "Use wildcards instead of manually-maintained file lists in */nls.mk."Tom Lane2022-07-13
| | | | | | | This reverts commit 617d69141220f277170927e03a19d2f1b77aed77. While I still think the basic idea is attractive, we need to sort out what happens with built .c files, and there also seem to be VPATH issues.
* Use wildcards instead of manually-maintained file lists in */nls.mk.Tom Lane2022-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The backend already used a mechanically-generated list of *.c files, but everywhere else we had a manually-written-out list of files in which to seek translatable messages. Commit b0a55e432 contains the latest in a long line of failures to update those lists. Rather than manually fix its oversight, let's change to using "$(wildcard *.c)" in all these nls.mk files. Many of these files also have manual references to some *.c files in other directories, most often src/common/. Perhaps we should try to improve that situation too; but it's a bit less clear how, so for now just fix the local file references.

* NLS: Put list of available languages into LINGUAS filesPeter Eisentraut2022-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the list of available languages from nls.mk into a separate file called po/LINGUAS. Advantages: - It keeps the parts notionally managed by programmers (nls.mk) separate from the parts notionally managed by translators (LINGUAS). - It's the standard practice recommended by the Gettext manual nowadays. - The Meson build system also supports this layout (and of course doesn't know anything about our custom nls.mk), so this would enable sharing the list of languages between the two build systems. (The MSVC build system currently finds all po files by globbing, so it is not affected by this change.)

* ecpglib: call newlocale() once per process.Noah Misch2022-07-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ecpglib has been calling it once per SQL query and once per EXEC SQL GET DESCRIPTOR. Instead, if newlocale() has not succeeded before, call it while establishing a connection. This mitigates three problems: - If newlocale() failed in EXEC SQL GET DESCRIPTOR, the command silently proceeded without the intended locale change. - On AIX, each newlocale()+freelocale() cycle leaked memory. - newlocale() CPU usage may have been nontrivial. Fail the connection attempt if newlocale() fails. Rearrange ecpg_do_prologue() to validate the connection before its uselocale(). The sort of program that may regress is one running in an environment where newlocale() fails. If that program establishes connections without running SQL statements, it will stop working in response to this change. I'm betting against the importance of such an ECPG use case. Most SQL execution (any using ECPGdo()) has long required newlocale() success, so there's little a connection could do without newlocale(). Back-patch to v10 (all supported versions).

* Avoid ecpglib core dump with out-of-order operations.Tom Lane2022-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an application executed operations like EXEC SQL PREPARE without having first established a database connection, it could get a core dump instead of the expected clean failure. This occurred because we did "pthread_getspecific(actual_connection_key)" without ever having initialized the TSD key actual_connection_key. The results of that are probably platform-specific, but at least on Linux it often leads to a crash. To fix, add calls to ecpg_pthreads_init() in the code paths that might use actual_connection_key uninitialized. It's harmless (and hopefully inexpensive) to do that more than once. Per bug #17514 from Okano Naoki. The problem's ancient, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17514-edd4fad547c5692c@postgresql.org
* Don't fail on libpq-generated error reports in ecpg_raise_backend().Tom Lane2022-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An error PGresult generated by libpq itself, such as a report of connection loss, won't have broken-down error fields. ecpg_raise_backend() blithely assumed that PG_DIAG_MESSAGE_PRIMARY would always be present, and would end up passing a NULL string pointer to snprintf when it isn't. That would typically crash before 3779ac62d, and it would fail to provide a useful error report in any case. Best practice is to substitute PQerrorMessage(conn) in such cases, so do that.

* Fix race condition in gettext() initialization in libpq and ecpglib.Tom Lane2022-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In libpq and ecpglib, multiple threads can concurrently enter the initialization logic for message localization. Since we set the its-done flag before actually doing the work, it'd be possible for some threads to reach gettext() before anyone has called bindtextdomain(). Barring bugs in libintl itself, this would not result in anything worse than failure to localize some early messages. Nonetheless, it's a bug, and an easy one to fix. Noted while investigating bug #17299 from Clemens Zeidler (much thanks to Liam Bowen for followup investigation on that). It currently appears that that actually *is* a bug in libintl itself, but that doesn't let us off the hook for this bit. Back-patch to all supported versions.

* Fix error handling with threads on OOM in ECPG connection logicMichael Paquier2021-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An out-of-memory failure happening when allocating the structures to store the connection parameter keywords and values would mess up with the set of connections saved, as on failure the pthread mutex would still be hold with the new connection object listed but free()'d. Rather than just unlocking the mutex, which would leave the static list of connections into an inconsistent state, move the allocation for the structures of the connection parameters before beginning the test manipulation. This ensures that the list of connections and the connection mutex remain consistent all the time in this code path. This error is unlikely going to happen, but this could mess up badly with ECPG clients in surprising ways, so backpatch all the way down.
