This is necessary for mulibyte character sequences.
See "[HACKERS] PQescapeBytea is not multibyte aware" thread posted around
2002/04/05 for more details.

o Change all current CVS messages of NOTICE to WARNING. We were going
to do this just before 7.3 beta but it has to be done now, as you will
see below.
o Change current INFO messages that should be controlled by
client_min_messages to NOTICE.
o Force remaining INFO messages, like from EXPLAIN, VACUUM VERBOSE, etc.
to always go to the client.
o Remove INFO from the client_min_messages options and add NOTICE.
Seems we do need three non-ERROR elog levels to handle the various
behaviors we need for these messages.
Regression passed.

Fix for non-blocking connections in libpq
Bernhard Herzog
|
|
queries over non-blocking connections with libpq. "Larger" here
basically means that it doesn't fit into the output buffer.
The basic strategy is to fix pqFlush and pqPutBytes.
The problem with pqFlush as it stands now is that it returns EOF when an
error occurs or when not all data could be sent. The latter case is
clearly not an error for a non-blocking connection but the caller can't
distringuish it from an error very well.
The first part of the fix is therefore to fix pqFlush. This is done by
to renaming it to pqSendSome which only differs from pqFlush in its
return values to allow the caller to make the above distinction and a
new pqFlush which is implemented in terms of pqSendSome and behaves
exactly like the old pqFlush.
The second part of the fix modifies pqPutBytes to use pqSendSome instead
of pqFlush and to either send all the data or if not all data can be
sent on a non-blocking connection to at least put all data into the
output buffer, enlarging it if necessary. The callers of pqPutBytes
don't have to be changed because from their point of view pqPutBytes
behaves like before. It either succeeds in queueing all output data or
fails with an error.
I've also added a new API function PQsendSome which analogously to
PQflush just calls pqSendSome. Programs using non-blocking queries
should use this new function. The main difference is that this function
will have to be called repeatedly (calling select() properly in between)
until all data has been written.
AFAICT, the code in CVS HEAD hasn't changed with respect to non-blocking
queries and this fix should work there, too, but I haven't tested that
yet.

Here's rev 2 of the bytea string support patch. Changes:
1. Added missing declaration for MatchBytea function
2. Added PQescapeBytea to fe-exec.c
3. Applies cleanly on cvs tip from this afternoon
I'm hoping that someone can review/approve/apply this before beta starts, so
I guess I'd vote (not that it counts for much) to delay beta a few days :-)

I agree that this is a problem, though it is not possible to do
anything harmful with it. In addition, it only occurs if there are
any NUL characters in its input, which is very unlikely if you are
using C strings.
The patch below addresses the issue by removing escaping of \0
characters entirely.

We can't do that, this would require 4n + 1 bytes of storage for the
result, breaking the interface.

discussion on pgsql-hackers (especially the frightening memory dump in
<12273.999562219@sss.pgh.pa.us>), we decided that it is best not to
use identifiers from an untrusted source at all. Therefore, all
claims of the suitability of PQescapeString() for identifiers have
been removed.

two additional files win32.mak and libpgtcl.def.
This patch allows to compile libpgtcl.dll on Windows
with tcl > 8.0. I've tested it on WinNT (VC6.0), SUSE Linux (7.0)
and Solaris 2.6 with tcl 8.3.3.

It works on win2k here too but not on win98/95 or winNT.
Anyway, attached is the patch which uses Magnus's my_sock_strerror
function (renamed to winsock_strerror). The only difference is that
I put the code to load and unload netmsg.dll in the libpqdll.c
(is this OK Magnus?).

that should use regular errno, not WSAGetLastError(), now do so again.
|
|
functions do not set errno, so some normal conditions are treated as
fatal errors. e.g. fetching large tuples fails, as at some point recv()
returns EWOULDBLOCK. here's a patch, which replaces errno with
WSAGetLastError(). i've tried to to affect non-win32 code.

are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively. By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory. There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.

we'll get there one day.
Use `cat' to create aclocal.m4, not `aclocal'. Some people don't
have automake installed.
Only run the autoconf rule in the top-level GNUmakefile if the
invoker specified `make configure', don't run it automatically
because of CVS timestamp skew.

array. This allows processing of conninfo strings to be made thread-safe,
at the cost of a small memory leak in applications that use
PQconndefaults() and are not updated to free the returned array via
the new PQconninfoFree() function. But PQconndefaults() is probably not
used very much, so this seems like a good compromise.

thinks the connection is idle, the error message is displayed as if
it were a NOTICE. This seems better than dropping the message on
the floor ... particularly if the message is the backend telling us
why it's about to close the connection. The previous behavior was
Backend message type 0x45 arrived while idle
pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
which is not real helpful.

* Add use of 'const' for varibles in source tree
(which is misspelled, btw.)
I went through the front-end libpq code and did so. This affects in
particular the various accessor functions (such as PQdb() and
PQgetvalue()) as well as, by necessity, the internal helpers they use.
I have been really thorough in that regard, perhaps some people will find
it annoying that things like
char * foo = PQgetvalue(res, 0, 0)
will generate a warning. On the other hand it _should_ generate one. This
is no real compatibility break, although a few clients will have to be
fixed to suppress warnings. (Which again would be in the spirit of the
above TODO.)
In addition I replaced some int's by size_t's and removed some warnings
(and generated some new ones -- grmpf!). Also I rewrote PQoidStatus (so it
actually honors the const!) and supplied a new function PQoidValue that
returns a proper Oid type. This is only front-end stuff, none of the
communicaton stuff was touched.
The psql patch also adds some new consts to honor the new libpq situation,
as well as fixes a fatal condition that resulted when using the -V
(--version) option and there is no database listening.
So, to summarize, the psql you should definitely put in (with or without
the libpq). If you think I went too far with the const-mania in libpq, let
me know and I'll make adjustments. If you approve it, I will also update
the docs.

error/notice message lengths, and number of fields per tuple. Add
pqexpbuffer.c/.h, a frontend version of backend's stringinfo module.
This is first step in applying Mike Ansley's long-query patches,
even though he didn't do any of these particular changes...

do the right thing: look for a NOTICE message from the backend before we
close our side of the socket. 6.4 libpq did not reliably print the backend's
hara-kiri message, 'The Postmaster has informed me ...', because it only
did the right thing if connection closure was detected during a read
attempt instead of a write attempt.

For what it's worth, I found another case in libpq where you can get a T
message without a D that my utility patch needs to handle. I have

comparisons correctly. The psql monitor converts all table and field
names to lower case. If the PQfnumber function is called with a mixed
