If we call pg_ctl stop, the server might continue and thus
hold a log file for a short time after it has deleted its pid file,
(which is when pg_ctl will exit), and so a subsequent attempt to
open the log file might fail.
We therefore try to open it a few times, sleeping one second between
tries, to give the server time to exit.
This corrects an error that was observed on the buildfarm.
Backpatched to 9.2,

Call pg_dumpall using -f switch instead of redirection, to avoid
writing the output in text mode and generating spurious carriage
returns. Remove to carriage return ignoring hack introduced by
commit e442b0f0c6fd26738bafdeb5222511b586dfe4b9.

pg_upgrade opened the output from pg_dumpall in text mode and
wrote the split files in text mode. This caused unwanted eating
of intended carriage returns on input and production of spurious
carriage returns on output. To avoid this, open all these files
in binary mode. On non-Windows platforms, this change has no
effect.
Backpatch to 9.0. On 9.0 and 9.1, we also switch from redirecting
pg_dumpall's output to using pg_dumpall's -f switch, for the same
reason.

This is just neatnik-ism, but since we do it for comparable code in elog.c,
we may as well do it here.

directory for pre-9.1 servers in live check and non-live check mode,
because pre-9.1 pg_ctl -w can't handle it.

pg_upgrade produces a platform-specific script to remove the old
directory, but on Windows it has not been making sure that the
paths it writes as arguments for rmdir and del use the backslash
path separator, which will cause these scripts to fail.
The fix is backpatched to Release 9.0.

Backpatch to 9.2 - code before that is quite different and should
not have these defects.

This syncs contrib/pg_upgrade in the 9.2 branch with HEAD, except for the
HEAD changes related to converting XLogRecPtr to 64-bit int. It includes

Extraction of trigrams did not process LIKE escape sequences properly,
leading to possible misidentification of trigrams near escapes, resulting
in incorrect index search results.

libxslt offers the ability to read and write both files and URLs through
stylesheet commands, thus allowing unprivileged database users to both read
and write data with the privileges of the database server. Disable that
through proper use of libxslt's security options.
Also, remove xslt_process()'s ability to fetch documents and stylesheets
from external files/URLs. While this was a documented "feature", it was
long regarded as a terrible idea. The fix for CVE-2012-3489 broke that
capability, and rather than expend effort on trying to fix it, we're just
going to summarily remove it.
While the ability to write as well as read makes this security hole
considerably worse than CVE-2012-3489, the problem is mitigated by the fact
that xslt_process() is not available unless contrib/xml2 is installed,
and the longstanding warnings about security risks from that should have
discouraged prudent DBAs from installing it in security-exposed databases.
Reported and fixed by Peter Eisentraut.

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.

Since the scandir() emulation was taken out of pg_upgrade, there's
no longer any need for scandir_file_pattern to exist as a global
variable. Replace it with a local in the one remaining function
that was making use of it.

Error out on out-of-memory, rather than returning -1, which the sole
existing caller wasn't checking for anyway. There doesn't seem to be
any use-case for making the caller check for failure here.
Detect failure return from readdir().
Use a less platform-dependent method of calculating the entrysize.
It's possible, but not yet confirmed, that this explains bug #6733,
in which Mike Wilson reports a pg_upgrade crash that did not occur
in 9.1. (Note that load_directory is effectively new code in 9.2,
at least on platforms that have scandir().)
Fix up comments, avoid uselessly using two counters, reduce the number
of realloc calls to something sane.

Now the log file not only contains the output from commands executed by
system(), but also what command it was in the first place. This
arrangement makes debugging a lot simpler.

Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders. Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.

The simplest way to handle this is just to copy-and-paste the relevant
code block in fork_process.c, so that's what I did. (It's possible that
something more complicated would be useful to packagers who want to work
with either the old or the new API; but at this point the number of such
people is rapidly approaching zero, so let's just get the minimal thing
done.) Update relevant documentation as well.

It failed to check for error return from xsltApplyStylesheet(), as reported
by Peter Gagarinov. (So far as I can tell, libxslt provides no convenient
way to get a useful error message in failure cases. There might be some
inconvenient way, but considering that this code is deprecated it's hard to
get enthusiastic about putting lots of work into it. So I just made it say
"failed to apply stylesheet", in line with the existing error checks.)
While looking at the code I also noticed that the string returned by
xsltSaveResultToString was never freed, resulting in a session-lifespan
memory leak.
Back-patch to all supported versions.

Overly tight coding caused the password transformation loop to stop
examining input once it had processed a byte equal to 0x80. Thus, if the
given password string contained such a byte (which is possible though not
highly likely in UTF8, and perhaps also in other non-ASCII encodings), all
subsequent characters would not contribute to the hash, making the password
much weaker than it appears on the surface.
This would only affect cases where applications used DES crypt() to encode
passwords before storing them in the database. If a weak password has been
created in this fashion, the hash will stop matching after this update has
been applied, so it will be easy to tell if any passwords were unexpectedly
weak. Changing to a different password would be a good idea in such a case.
(Since DES has been considered inadequately secure for some time, changing
to a different encryption algorithm can also be recommended.)
This code, and the bug, are shared with at least PHP, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD.
Since the other projects have already published their fixes, there is no
point in trying to keep this commit private.
This bug has been assigned CVE-2012-2143, and credit for its discovery goes
to Rubin Xu and Joseph Bonneau.

Write the file to a temporary name and then rename() it into the
permanent name, to ensure it can't end up half-written and corrupt
in case of a crash during shutdown.
Unlink the file after it has been read so it's removed from the data
directory and not included in base backups going to replication slaves.

We previously recognized that citext wouldn't get marked as collatable
during pg_upgrade from a pre-9.1 installation, and hacked its
create-from-unpackaged script to manually perform the necessary catalog
adjustments. However, we overlooked the fact that domains over citext,
as well as the citext[] array type, need the same adjustments. Extend
the script to handle those cases.
Also, the documentation suggested that this was only an issue in pg_upgrade
scenarios, which is quite wrong; loading any dump containing citext from a
pre-9.1 server will also result in the type being wrongly marked.
I approached the documentation problem by changing the 9.1.2 release note
paragraphs about this issue, which is historically inaccurate. But it
seems better than having the information scattered in multiple places, and
leaving incorrect info in the 9.1.2 notes would be bad anyway. We'll still
need to mention the issue again in the 9.1.4 notes, but perhaps they can
just reference 9.1.2 for fix instructions.
Per report from Evan Carroll. Back-patch into 9.1.
