* Switch dependency order of libpgcommon and libpgportPeter Eisentraut2013-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | Continuing 63f32f3416a8b4f8e057dc184e8e8eae734ccc8a, libpgcommon should depend on libpgport, but not vice versa. But wait_result_to_str() in wait_error.c depends on pstrdup() in libpgcommon. So move exec.c and wait_error.c from libpgport to libpgcommon. Also switch the link order in the place that's actually used by the failing ecpg builds. The function declarations have been left in port.h for now. That should perhaps be separated sometime.
* Add support for piping COPY to/from an external program.Heikki Linnakangas2013-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This includes backend "COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM '...'" syntax, and corresponding psql \copy syntax. Like with reading/writing files, the backend version is superuser-only, and in the psql version, the program is run in the client. In the passing, the psql \copy STDIN/STDOUT syntax is subtly changed: if you the stdin/stdout is quoted, it's now interpreted as a filename. For example, "\copy foo from 'stdin'" now reads from a file called 'stdin', not from standard input. Before this, there was no way to specify a filename called stdin, stdout, pstdin or pstdout. This creates a new function in pgport, wait_result_to_str(), which can be used to convert the exit status of a process, as returned by wait(3), to a human-readable string. Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Amit Kapila.

* Improve reporting of error situations in find_other_exec().Tom Lane2012-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | This function suppressed any stderr output from the called program, which is unnecessary in the normal case and unhelpful in error cases. It also gave a rather opaque message along the lines of "fgets failure: Success" in case the called program failed to return anything on stdout. Since we've seen multiple reports of people not understanding what's wrong when pg_ctl reports this, improve the message. Back-patch to all active branches.

* Simplify validate_exec() by using access(2) to check file permissions,Tom Lane2010-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | rather than trying to implement the equivalent logic by hand. The motivation for the original coding appears to have been to check with the effective uid's permissions not the real uid's; but there is no longer any difference, because we don't run the postmaster setuid (indeed, main.c enforces that they're the same). Using access() means we will get it right in situations the original coding failed to handle, such as ACL-based permissions. Besides it's a lot shorter, cleaner, and more thread-safe. Per bug #5275 from James Bellinger.

* Fix a number of places that were making file-type tests infelicitously.Tom Lane2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The places that did, eg, (statbuf.st_mode & S_IFMT) == S_IFDIR were correct, but there is no good reason not to use S_ISDIR() instead, especially when that's what the other 90% of our code does. The places that did, eg, (statbuf.st_mode & S_IFDIR) were flat out *wrong* and would fail in various platform-specific ways, eg a symlink could be mistaken for a regular file on most Unixen. The actual impact of this is probably small, since the problem cases seem to always involve symlinks or sockets, which are unlikely to be found in the directories that PG code might be scanning. But it's clearly trouble waiting to happen, so patch all the way back anyway. (There seem to be no occurrences of the mistake in 7.4.)
