* Improve pqexpbuffer.c to use modern vsnprintf implementations efficiently.Tom Lane2013-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When using a C99-compliant vsnprintf, we can use its report of the required buffer size to avoid making multiple loops through the formatting logic. This is similar to the changes recently made in stringinfo.c, but we can't use psprintf.c here because in libpq we don't want to exit() on error. (The behavior pqexpbuffer.c has historically used is to mark the PQExpBuffer as "broken", ie empty, if it runs into any fatal problem.) To avoid duplicating code more than necessary, I refactored printfPQExpBuffer and appendPQExpBuffer to share a subroutine that's very similar to psprintf.c's pvsnprintf in spirit.
* Suppress -0 in the C field of lines computed by line_construct_pts().Tom Lane2013-10-25
| | | | | | | | It's not entirely clear why some PPC machines are generating -0 here, since the underlying computation should be exactly 0 - 0. Perhaps there's some wider-than-nominal-precision calculations happening? Anyway, the best way to avoid platform-dependent results seems to be to explicitly reset -0 to regular zero.
* Revert "Tweak "line" test to avoid negative zeros on some platforms"Tom Lane2013-10-25
| | | | | | This reverts commit a0a546f0d94ec6cbb3cd6b1c82f58d801046615f. It seems better to tweak the code to suppress -0 results during line_construct_pts(), which I'll do in the next commit.

* Ignore SIGSYS during initdb.Tom Lane2013-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | This prevents the recently-added probe for shm_open() from crashing on platforms that are impolite enough to deliver a signal rather than returning ENOSYS for an unimplemented kernel call. At least on the one known example (HPUX 10.20), ignoring SIGSYS does result in the desired behavior of getting an ENOSYS error return instead. Per discussion, we might later wish to do this in the backend as well, but for now it seems sufficient to do it in initdb.
* Use improved vsnprintf calling logic in more places.Tom Lane2013-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we are using a C99-compliant vsnprintf implementation (which should be most places, these days) it is worth the trouble to make use of its report of how large the buffer needs to be to succeed. This patch adjusts stringinfo.c and some miscellaneous usages in pg_dump to do that, relying on the logic recently added in libpgcommon's psprintf.c. Since these places want to know the number of bytes written once we succeed, modify the API of pvsnprintf() to report that. There remains near-duplicate logic in pqexpbuffer.c, but since that code is in libpq, psprintf.c's approach of exit()-on-error isn't appropriate for use there. Also note that I didn't bother touching the multitude of places that call (v)snprintf without any attempt to provide a resizable buffer. Release-note-worthy incompatibility: the API of appendStringInfoVA() changed. If there's any third-party code that's calling that directly, it will need tweaking along the same lines as in this patch. David Rowley and Tom Lane
* Increase the number of different values used when seeding random().Heikki Linnakangas2013-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When a backend process is forked, we initialize the system's random number generator with srandom(). The seed used is derived from the backend's pid and the timestamp. However, we only used the microseconds part of the timestamp, and it was XORed with the pid, so the total range of different seed values chosen was 0-999999. That's quite limited. Change the code to also use the seconds part of the timestamp in the seed, and shift the microseconds so that all 32 bits of the seed are used. Honza Horak
* Plug memory leak when reloading config file.Heikki Linnakangas2013-10-24
| | | | | | | | | The absolute path to config file was not pfreed. There are probably more small leaks here and there in the config file reload code and assign hooks, and in practice no-one reloads the config files frequently enough for it to be a problem, but this one is trivial enough that might as well fix it. Backpatch to 9.3 where the leak was introduced.

* Simplify tab completion rules for views and foreign tables.Robert Haas2013-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | Since an increasing number of views and foreign tables are now able to be updated, complete with any table, view, or foreign table in the relevant contexts. This avoids the need to use a complex query that may be both confusing to end-users and nonperformant to construct the list of possible completions.

* Fix two bugs in setting the vm bit of empty pages.Heikki Linnakangas2013-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Use a critical section when setting the all-visible flag on an empty page, and WAL-logging it. log_newpage_buffer() contains an assertion that it must be called inside a critical section, and it's the right thing to do when modifying a buffer anyway. Also, the page should be marked dirty before calling log_newpage_buffer(), per the comment in log_newpage_buffer() and src/backend/access/transam/README. Patch by Andres Freund, in response to my report. Backpatch to 9.2, like the patch that introduced these bugs (a6370fd9).
* Suppress a couple of compiler warnings seen with older gcc versions.Tom Lane2013-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | To wit, bgworker.c: In function `RegisterDynamicBackgroundWorker': bgworker.c:761: warning: `generation' might be used uninitialized in this function dsm_impl.c: In function `dsm_impl_op': dsm_impl.c:197: warning: control reaches end of non-void function Neither of these represent actual bugs, but we may as well tweak the code so that more compilers can tell that. This won't change the generated code on compilers that do recognize that the cases are unreachable.
* Replace pg_asprintf() with psprintf().Tom Lane2013-10-22
| | | | | | This eliminates an awkward coding pattern that's also unnecessarily inconsistent with backend coding. psprintf() is now the thing to use everywhere.
* Get rid of use of asprintf() in favor of a more portable implementation.Tom Lane2013-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | asprintf(), aside from not being particularly portable, has a fundamentally badly-designed API; the psprintf() function that was added in passing in the previous patch has a much better API choice. Moreover, the NetBSD implementation that was borrowed for the previous patch doesn't work with non-C99-compliant vsnprintf, which is something we still have to cope with on some platforms; and it depends on va_copy which isn't all that portable either. Get rid of that code in favor of an implementation similar to what we've used for many years in stringinfo.c. Also, move it into libpgcommon since it's not really libpgport material. I think this patch will be enough to turn the buildfarm green again, but there's still cosmetic work left to do, namely get rid of pg_asprintf() in favor of using psprintf(). That will come in a followon patch.

* Allow only some columns of a view to be auto-updateable.Robert Haas2013-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | Previously, unless all columns were auto-updateable, we wouldn't inserts, updates, or deletes, or at least not without a rule or trigger; now, we'll allow inserts and updates that target only the auto-updateable columns, and deletes even if there are no auto-updateable columns at all provided the view definition is otherwise suitable.

* Provide a reliable mechanism for terminating a background worker.Robert Haas2013-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | Although previously-introduced APIs allow the process that registers a background worker to obtain the worker's PID, there's no way to prevent a worker that is not currently running from being restarted. This patch introduces a new API TerminateBackgroundWorker() that prevents the background worker from being restarted, terminates it if it is currently running, and causes it to be unregistered if or when it is not running. Patch by me. Review by Michael Paquier and KaiGai Kohei.

* Remove IRIX port.Robert Haas2013-10-18
| | | | | | | Development of IRIX has been discontinued, and support is scheduled to end in December of 2013. Therefore, there will be no supported versions of this operating system by the time PostgreSQL 9.4 is released. Furthermore, we have no maintainer for this platform.
* 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.
* Remove spinlock support for SINIX, Sun3, and NS32K.Robert Haas2013-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All of these platforms are very much obsolete. As far as I can determine, the last version of SINIX, later renamed Reliant, occurred some time between 2002 and 2005. The last release of SunOS that would run on a sun3 was released in November of 1991; the last release of OpenBSD which supported that platform was in 2001. The highest clock speed of any processor in the family was 25MHz. The NS32K (national semiconductor 320xx) architecture was retired in 1990. Support can be re-added if a maintainer emerges for any of these platforms, but it seems unlikely. Reviewed by Andres Freund.

* Translation updates to fix build failuresPeter Eisentraut2013-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | Now that msgfmt is run with -c by default, older versions of gettext are complaining about the PO headers Last-Translator and Language-Team still having their default values. Newer gettext versions fail to catch this because of a bug (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40261), which is why this hasn't been noticed before. Copy updated versions of affected translation files from the pgtranslations repository, were those files have been fixed.

* Rework SSL renegotiation codeAlvaro Herrera2013-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing renegotiation code was home for several bugs: it might erroneously report that renegotiation had failed; it might try to execute another renegotiation while the previous one was pending; it failed to terminate the connection if the renegotiation never actually took place; if a renegotiation was started, the byte count was reset, even if the renegotiation wasn't completed (this isn't good from a security perspective because it means continuing to use a session that should be considered compromised due to volume of data transferred.) The new code is structured to avoid these pitfalls: renegotiation is started a little earlier than the limit has expired; the handshake sequence is retried until it has actually returned successfully, and no more than that, but if it fails too many times, the connection is closed. The byte count is reset only when the renegotiation has succeeded, and if the renegotiation byte count limit expires, the connection is terminated. This commit only touches the master branch, because some of the changes are controversial. If everything goes well, a back-patch might be considered.

* Remove maintainer-check target, fold into normal buildPeter Eisentraut2013-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | make maintainer-check was obscure and rarely called in practice, and many breakages were missed. Fold everything that make maintainer-check used to do into the normal build. Specifically: - Call duplicate_oids when genbki.pl is called. - Check for tabs in SGML files when the documentation is built. - Run msgfmt with the -c option during the regular build. Add an additional configure check to see whether we are using the GNU version. (make maintainer-check probably used to fail with non-GNU msgfmt.) Keep maintainer-check as around as phony target for the time being in case anyone is calling it. But it won't do anything anymore.
