* Remove server and libpq support for old FE/BE protocol version 2.Heikki Linnakangas2021-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Protocol version 3 was introduced in PostgreSQL 7.4. There shouldn't be many clients or servers left out there without version 3 support. But as a courtesy, I kept just enough of the old protocol support that we can still send the "unsupported protocol version" error in v2 format, so that old clients can display the message properly. Likewise, libpq still understands v2 ErrorResponse messages when establishing a connection. The impetus to do this now is that I'm working on a patch to COPY FROM, to always prefetch some data. We cannot do that safely with the old protocol, because it requires parsing the input one byte at a time to detect the end-of-copy marker.

* In libpq, always append new error messages to conn->errorMessage.Tom Lane2021-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we had an undisciplined mish-mash of printfPQExpBuffer and appendPQExpBuffer calls to report errors within libpq. This commit establishes a uniform rule that appendPQExpBuffer[Str] should be used. conn->errorMessage is reset only at the start of an application request, and then accumulates messages till we're done. We can remove no less than three different ad-hoc mechanisms that were used to get the effect of concatenation of error messages within a sequence of operations. Although this makes things quite a bit cleaner conceptually, the main reason to do it is to make the world safer for the multiple-target-host feature that was added awhile back. Previously, there were many cases in which an error occurring during an individual host connection attempt would wipe out the record of what had happened during previous attempts. (The reporting is still inadequate, in that it can be hard to tell which host got the failure, but that seems like a matter for a separate commit.) Currently, lo_import and lo_export contain exceptions to the "never use printfPQExpBuffer" rule. If we changed them, we'd risk reporting an incidental lo_close failure before the actual read or write failure, which would be confusing, not least because lo_close happened after the main failure. We could improve this by inventing an internal version of lo_close that doesn't reset the errorMessage; but we'd also need a version of PQfn() that does that, and it didn't quite seem worth the trouble for now.

* Clean up newlines following left parenthesesAlvaro Herrera2020-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | We used to strategically place newlines after some function call left parentheses to make pgindent move the argument list a few chars to the left, so that the whole line would fit under 80 chars. However, pgindent no longer does that, so the newlines just made the code vertically longer for no reason. Remove those newlines, and reflow some of those lines for some extra naturality.

* Restructure libpq's handling of send failures.Tom Lane2019-03-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally, if libpq got a failure (e.g., ECONNRESET) while trying to send data to the server, it would just report that and wash its hands of the matter. It was soon found that that wasn't a very pleasant way of coping with server-initiated disconnections, so we introduced a hack (pqHandleSendFailure) in the code that sends queries to make it peek ahead for server error reports before reporting the send failure. It now emerges that related cases can occur during connection setup; in particular, as of TLS 1.3 it's unsafe to assume that SSL connection failures will be reported by SSL_connect rather than during our first send attempt. We could have fixed that in a hacky way by applying pqHandleSendFailure after a startup packet send failure, but (a) pqHandleSendFailure explicitly disclaims suitability for use in any state except query startup, and (b) the problem still potentially exists for other send attempts in libpq. Instead, let's fix this in a more general fashion by eliminating pqHandleSendFailure altogether, and instead arranging to postpone all reports of send failures in libpq until after we've made an attempt to read and process server messages. The send failure won't be reported at all if we find a server message or detect input EOF. (Note: this removes one of the reasons why libpq typically overwrites, rather than appending to, conn->errorMessage: pqHandleSendFailure needed that behavior so that the send failure report would be replaced if we got a server message or read failure report. Eventually I'd like to get rid of that overwrite behavior altogether, but today is not that day. For the moment, pqSendSome is assuming that its callees will overwrite not append to conn->errorMessage.) Possibly this change should get back-patched someday; but it needs testing first, so let's not consider that till after v12 beta.

* In libpq, free any partial query result before collecting a server error.Tom Lane2018-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We'd throw away the partial result anyway after parsing the error message. Throwing it away beforehand costs nothing and reduces the risk of out-of-memory failure. Also, at least in systems that behave like glibc/Linux, if the partial result was very large then the error PGresult would get allocated at high heap addresses, preventing the heap storage used by the partial result from being released to the OS until the error PGresult is freed. In psql >= 9.6, we hold onto the error PGresult until another error is received (for \errverbose), so that this behavior causes a seeming memory leak to persist for awhile, as in a recent complaint from Darafei Praliaskouski. This is a potential performance regression from older versions, justifying back-patching at least that far. But similar behavior may occur in other client applications, so it seems worth just back-patching to all supported branches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings. The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so those are left as is when using those APIs. In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>
* Replace most usages of ntoh[ls] and hton[sl] with pg_bswap.h.Andres Freund2017-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All postgres internal usages are replaced, it's just libpq example usages that haven't been converted. External users of libpq can't generally rely on including postgres internal headers. Note that this includes replacing open-coded byte swapping of 64bit integers (using two 32 bit swaps) with a single 64bit swap. Where it looked applicable, I have removed netinet/in.h and arpa/inet.h usage, which previously provided the relevant functionality. It's perfectly possible that I missed other reasons for including those, the buildfarm will tell.

* Reduce excessive dereferencing of function pointersPeter Eisentraut2017-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is equivalent in ANSI C to write (*funcptr) () and funcptr(). These two styles have been applied inconsistently. After discussion, we'll use the more verbose style for plain function pointer variables, to make it clear that it's a variable, and the shorter style when the function pointer is in a struct (s.func() or s->func()), because then it's clear that it's not a plain function name, and otherwise the excessive punctuation makes some of those invocations hard to read.

* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Improve handling of out-of-memory in libpq.Heikki Linnakangas2015-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | If an allocation fails in the main message handling loop, pqParseInput3 or pqParseInput2, it should not be treated as "not enough data available yet". Otherwise libpq will wait indefinitely for more data to arrive from the server, and gets stuck forever. This isn't a complete fix - getParamDescriptions and getCopyStart still have the same issue, but it's a step in the right direction. Michael Paquier and me. Backpatch to all supported versions.
* Replace a bunch more uses of strncpy() with safer coding.Tom Lane2015-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | strncpy() has a well-deserved reputation for being unsafe, so make an effort to get rid of nearly all occurrences in HEAD. A large fraction of the remaining uses were passing length less than or equal to the known strlen() of the source, in which case no null-padding can occur and the behavior is equivalent to memcpy(), though doubtless slower and certainly harder to reason about. So just use memcpy() in these cases. In other cases, use either StrNCpy() or strlcpy() as appropriate (depending on whether padding to the full length of the destination buffer seems useful). I left a few strncpy() calls alone in the src/timezone/ code, to keep it in sync with upstream (the IANA tzcode distribution). There are also a few such calls in ecpg that could possibly do with more analysis. AFAICT, none of these changes are more than cosmetic, except for the four occurrences in fe-secure-openssl.c, which are in fact buggy: an overlength source leads to a non-null-terminated destination buffer and ensuing misbehavior. These don't seem like security issues, first because no stack clobber is possible and second because if your values of sslcert etc are coming from untrusted sources then you've got problems way worse than this. Still, it's undesirable to have unpredictable behavior for overlength inputs, so back-patch those four changes to all active branches.

* Prevent potential overruns of fixed-size buffers.Tom Lane2014-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Coverity identified a number of places in which it couldn't prove that a string being copied into a fixed-size buffer would fit. We believe that most, perhaps all of these are in fact safe, or are copying data that is coming from a trusted source so that any overrun is not really a security issue. Nonetheless it seems prudent to forestall any risk by using strlcpy() and similar functions. Fixes by Peter Eisentraut and Jozef Mlich based on Coverity reports. In addition, fix a potential null-pointer-dereference crash in contrib/chkpass. The crypt(3) function is defined to return NULL on failure, but chkpass.c didn't check for that before using the result. The main practical case in which this could be an issue is if libc is configured to refuse to execute unapproved hashing algorithms (e.g., "FIPS mode"). This ideally should've been a separate commit, but since it touches code adjacent to one of the buffer overrun changes, I included it in this commit to avoid last-minute merge issues. This issue was reported by Honza Horak. Security: CVE-2014-0065 for buffer overruns, CVE-2014-0066 for crypt()

* Replace libpq's "row processor" API with a "single row" mode.Tom Lane2012-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After taking awhile to digest the row-processor feature that was added to libpq in commit 92785dac2ee7026948962cd61c4cd84a2d052772, we've concluded it is over-complicated and too hard to use. Leave the core infrastructure changes in place (that is, there's still a row processor function inside libpq), but remove the exposed API pieces, and instead provide a "single row" mode switch that causes PQgetResult to return one row at a time in separate PGresult objects. This approach incurs more overhead than proper use of a row processor callback would, since construction of a PGresult per row adds extra cycles. However, it is far easier to use and harder to break. The single-row mode still affords applications the primary benefit that the row processor API was meant to provide, namely not having to accumulate large result sets in memory before processing them. Preliminary testing suggests that we can probably buy back most of the extra cycles by micro-optimizing construction of the extra results, but that task will be left for another day. Marko Kreen

* Add a "row processor" API to libpq for better handling of large results.Tom Lane2012-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | Traditionally libpq has collected an entire query result before passing it back to the application. That provides a simple and transactional API, but it's pretty inefficient for large result sets. This patch allows the application to process each row on-the-fly instead of accumulating the rows into the PGresult. Error recovery becomes a bit more complex, but often that tradeoff is well worth making. Kyotaro Horiguchi, reviewed by Marko Kreen and Tom Lane
