From 01731eeeaa9665b47a45b7d2c967ef4c06a56d1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nathan Bossart Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2024 13:51:03 -0500 Subject: Fix Y2038 issues with MyStartTime. Several places treat MyStartTime as a "long", which is only 32 bits wide on some platforms. In reality, MyStartTime is a pg_time_t, i.e., a signed 64-bit integer. This will lead to interesting bugs on the aforementioned systems in 2038 when signed 32-bit integers are no longer sufficient to store Unix time (e.g., "pg_ctl start" hanging). To fix, ensure that MyStartTime is handled as a 64-bit value everywhere. (Of course, users will need to ensure that time_t is 64 bits wide on their system, too.)
