2016-09-02Move code shared between libpq and backend from backend/libpq/ to common/.Heikki Linnakangas
When building libpq, ip.c and md5.c were symlinked or copied from src/backend/libpq into src/interfaces/libpq, but now that we have a directory specifically for routines that are shared between the server and client binaries, src/common/, move them there. Some routines in ip.c were only used in the backend. Keep those in src/backend/libpq, but rename to ifaddr.c to avoid confusion with the file that's now in common. Fix the comment in src/common/Makefile to reflect how libpq actually links those files. There are two more files that libpq symlinks directly from src/backend: encnames.c and wchar.c. I don't feel compelled to move those right now, though. Patch by Michael Paquier, with some changes by me. Discussion: <69938195-9c76-8523-0af8-eb718ea5b36e@iki.fi>
2016-08-29Remove support for OpenSSL versions older than 0.9.8.Heikki Linnakangas
OpenSSL officially only supports 1.0.1 and newer. Some OS distributions still provide patches for 0.9.8, but anything older than that is not interesting anymore. Let's simplify things by removing compatibility code. Andreas Karlsson, with small changes by me.
2016-08-26Add a nonlocalized version of the severity field to client error messages.Tom Lane
This has been requested a few times, but the use-case for it was never entirely clear. The reason for adding it now is that transmission of error reports from parallel workers fails when NLS is active, because pq_parse_errornotice() wrongly assumes that the existing severity field is nonlocalized. There are other ways we could have fixed that, but the other options were basically kluges, whereas this way provides something that's at least arguably a useful feature along with the bug fix. Per report from Jakob Egger. Back-patch into 9.6, because otherwise parallel query is essentially unusable in non-English locales. The problem exists in 9.5 as well, but we don't want to risk changing on-the-wire behavior in 9.5 (even though the possibility of new error fields is specifically called out in the protocol document). It may be sufficient to leave the issue unfixed in 9.5, given the very limited usefulness of pq_parse_errornotice in that version. Discussion: <A88E0006-13CB-49C6-95CC-1A77D717213C@eggerapps.at>
2016-08-16Automate the maintenance of SO_MINOR_VERSION for our shared libraries.Tom Lane
Up to now we've manually adjusted these numbers in several different Makefiles at the start of each development cycle. While that's not much work, it's easily forgotten, so let's get rid of it by setting the SO_MINOR_VERSION values directly from $(MAJORVERSION). In the case of libpq, this dev cycle's value of SO_MINOR_VERSION happens to be "10" anyway, so this switch is transparent. For ecpg's shared libraries, this will result in skipping one or two minor version numbers between v9.6 and v10, which seems like no big problem; and it was a bit inconsistent that they didn't have equal minor version numbers anyway.

2016-08-16Remove separate version numbering for ecpg preprocessor.Tom Lane
Once upon a time, it made sense for the ecpg preprocessor to have its own version number, because it used a manually-maintained grammar that wasn't always in sync with the core grammar. But those days are thankfully long gone, leaving only a maintenance nuisance behind. Let's use the PG v10 version numbering changeover as an excuse to get rid of the ecpg version number and just have ecpg identify itself by PG_VERSION. From the user's standpoint, ecpg will go from "4.12" in the 9.6 branch to "10" in the 10 branch, so there's no failure of monotonicity. Discussion: <1471332659.4410.67.camel@postgresql.org>
2016-08-15Stamp shared-library minor version numbers for v10.Tom Lane
2016-08-15Stamp HEAD as 10devel.Tom Lane
This is a good bit more complicated than the average new-version stamping commit, because it includes various adjustments in pursuit of changing from three-part to two-part version numbers. It's likely some further work will be needed around that change; but this is enough to get through the regression tests, at least in Unix builds. Peter Eisentraut and Tom Lane
2016-08-14Remove bogus dependencies on NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION.Tom Lane
NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION is a purely arbitrary constraint on the precision and scale you can write in a numeric typmod. It might once have had something to do with the allowed range of a typmod-less numeric value, but at least since 9.1 we've allowed, and documented that we allowed, any value that would physically fit in the numeric storage format; which is something over 100000 decimal digits, not 1000. Hence, get rid of numeric_in()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION as a limit on the allowed range of the exponent in scientific-format input. That was especially silly in view of the fact that you can enter larger numbers as long as you don't use 'e' to do it. Just constrain the value enough to avoid localized overflow, and let make_result be the final arbiter of what is too large. Likewise adjust ecpg's equivalent of this code. Also get rid of numeric_recv()'s use of NUMERIC_MAX_PRECISION to limit the number of base-NBASE digits it would accept. That created a dump/restore hazard for binary COPY without doing anything useful; the wire-format limit on number of digits (65535) is about as tight as we would want. In HEAD, also get rid of pg_size_bytes()'s unnecessary intimacy with what the numeric range limit is. That code doesn't exist in the back branches. Per gripe from Aravind Kumar. Back-patch to all supported branches, since they all contain the documentation claim about allowed range of NUMERIC (cf commit cabf5d84b). Discussion: <2895.1471195721@sss.pgh.pa.us>

2016-08-08Obstruct shell, SQL, and conninfo injection via database and role names.Noah Misch
Due to simplistic quoting and confusion of database names with conninfo strings, roles with the CREATEDB or CREATEROLE option could escalate to superuser privileges when a superuser next ran certain maintenance commands. The new coding rule for PQconnectdbParams() calls, documented at conninfo_array_parse(), is to pass expand_dbname=true and wrap literal database names in a trivial connection string. Escape zero-length values in appendConnStrVal(). Back-patch to 9.1 (all supported versions). Nathan Bossart, Michael Paquier, and Noah Misch. Reviewed by Peter Eisentraut. Reported by Nathan Bossart.

2016-08-05Teach libpq to decode server version correctly from future servers.Tom Lane
Beginning with the next development cycle, PG servers will report two-part not three-part version numbers. Fix libpq so that it will compute the correct numeric representation of such server versions for reporting by PQserverVersion(). It's desirable to get this into the field and back-patched ASAP, so that older clients are more likely to understand the new server version numbering by the time any such servers are in the wild. (The results with an old client would probably not be catastrophic anyway for a released server; for example "10.1" would be interpreted as 100100 which would be wrong in detail but would not likely cause an old client to misbehave badly. But "10devel" or "10beta1" would result in sversion==0 which at best would result in disabling all use of modern features.)

2016-07-17Establish conventions about global object names used in regression tests.Tom Lane
To ensure that "make installcheck" can be used safely against an existing installation, we need to be careful about what global object names (database, role, and tablespace names) we use; otherwise we might accidentally clobber important objects. There's been a weak consensus that test databases should have names including "regression", and that test role names should start with "regress_", but we didn't have any particular rule about tablespace names; and neither of the other rules was followed with any consistency either. This commit moves us a long way towards having a hard-and-fast rule that regression test databases must have names including "regression", and that test role and tablespace names must start with "regress_". It's not completely there because I did not touch some test cases in rolenames.sql that test creation of special role names like "session_user". That will require some rethinking of exactly what we want to test, whereas the intent of this patch is just to hit all the cases in which the needed renamings are cosmetic. There is no enforcement mechanism in this patch either, but if we don't add one we can expect that the tests will soon be violating the convention again. Again, that's not such a cosmetic change and it will require discussion. (But I did use a quick-hack enforcement patch to find these cases.) Discussion: <16638.1468620817@sss.pgh.pa.us>

2016-04-23Rename strtoi() to strtoint().Tom Lane
NetBSD has seen fit to invent a libc function named strtoi(), which conflicts with the long-established static functions of the same name in datetime.c and ecpg's interval.c. While muttering darkly about intrusions on application namespace, we'll rename our functions to avoid the conflict. Back-patch to all supported branches, since this would affect attempts to build any of them on recent NetBSD. Thomas Munro
2016-04-12Remove unnecessary definition of _WIN64 in libpq/win32.mak.Tom Lane
In commit b0e40d189325dc7a54d2546245e766f8c47a7c8d, I should have just removed the /D switch defining WIN64. The reason the code worked before is that all Windows64 compilers automatically predefine _WIN64. Perhaps at one time we had code that depended on WIN64 being defined, but it's long gone, and we should not encourage any reappearance. Per discussion with Christian Ullrich.
2016-04-11Fix two places that thought Windows64 is indicated by WIN64 macro.Tom Lane
Everyplace else thinks it's _WIN64, so make these places fall in line. The pg_regress.c usage is not going to result in any change in behavior, only suppressing (or not) a compiler warning about downcasting HANDLEs. So there seems no need for back-patching there. The libpq/win32.mak usage might represent an actual bug, if anyone were using this script to build for Windows64, which perhaps nobody is. Given the lack of field complaints, no back-patch here either. pg_regress.c problem found by Christian Ullrich, the other by me.
2016-04-08Distrust external OpenSSL clients; clear err queuePeter Eisentraut
OpenSSL has an unfortunate tendency to mix per-session state error handling with per-thread error handling. This can cause problems when programs that link to libpq with OpenSSL enabled have some other use of OpenSSL; without care, one caller of OpenSSL may cause problems for the other caller. Backend code might similarly be affected, for example when a third party extension independently uses OpenSSL without taking the appropriate precautions. To fix, don't trust other users of OpenSSL to clear the per-thread error queue. Instead, clear the entire per-thread queue ahead of certain I/O operations when it appears that there might be trouble (these I/O operations mostly need to call SSL_get_error() to check for success, which relies on the queue being empty). This is slightly aggressive, but it's pretty clear that the other callers have a very dubious claim to ownership of the per-thread queue. Do this is both frontend and backend code. Finally, be more careful about clearing our own error queue, so as to not cause these problems ourself. It's possibly that control previously did not always reach SSLerrmessage(), where ERR_get_error() was supposed to be called to clear the queue's earliest code. Make sure ERR_get_error() is always called, so as to spare other users of OpenSSL the possibility of similar problems caused by libpq (as opposed to problems caused by a third party OpenSSL library like PHP's OpenSSL extension). Again, do this is both frontend and backend code. See bug #12799 and https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68276 Based on patches by Dave Vitek and Peter Eisentraut. From: Peter Geoghegan <pg@bowt.ie>

2016-04-03Add libpq support for recreating an error message with different verbosity.Tom Lane
Often, upon getting an unexpected error in psql, one's first wish is that the verbosity setting had been higher; for example, to be able to see the schema-name field or the server code location info. Up to now the only way has been to adjust the VERBOSITY variable and repeat the failing query. That's a pain, and it doesn't work if the error isn't reproducible. This commit adds support in libpq for regenerating the error message for an existing error PGresult at any desired verbosity level. This is almost just a matter of refactoring the existing code into a subroutine, but there is one bit of possibly-needed information that was not getting put into PGresults: the text of the last query sent to the server. We must add that string to the contents of an error PGresult. But we only need to save it if it might be used, which with the existing error-formatting code only happens if there is a PG_DIAG_STATEMENT_POSITION error field, which is probably pretty rare for errors in production situations. So really the overhead when the feature isn't used should be negligible. Alex Shulgin, reviewed by Daniel Vérité, some improvements by me
2016-04-01Fix oversight in getParamDescriptions(), and improve comments.Tom Lane
When getParamDescriptions was changed to handle out-of-memory better by cribbing error recovery logic from getRowDescriptions/getAnotherTuple, somebody omitted to copy the stanza about checking for excess data in the message. But you need to do that, since continue'ing out of the switch in pqParseInput3 means no such check gets applied there anymore. Noted while looking at Michael Paquier's patch that made yet another copy of this advance_and_error logic. (This whole business desperately needs refactoring, because I sure don't want to see a dozen copies of this code, but that's where we seem to be headed. What's more, the "suspend parsing on EOF return" convention is a holdover from protocol 2 and shouldn't exist at all in protocol 3, because we don't process partial messages anymore. But for now, just fix the obvious bug.) Also, fix some wrong/missing comments about what the API spec is for these three functions. This doesn't seem worthy of back-patching, even though it's a bug; the case shouldn't ever arise in the field.
2016-03-29Avoid possibly-unsafe use of Windows' FormatMessage() function.Tom Lane
Whenever this function is used with the FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM flag, it's good practice to include FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS as well. Otherwise, if the message contains any %n insertion markers, the function will try to fetch argument strings to substitute --- which we are not passing, possibly leading to a crash. This is exactly analogous to the rule about not giving printf() a format string you're not in control of. Noted and patched by Christian Ullrich. Back-patch to all supported branches.
2016-03-23Move keywords.c/kwlookup.c into src/common/.Tom Lane
Now that we have src/common/ for code shared between frontend and backend, we can get rid of (most of) the klugy ways that the keyword table and keyword lookup code were formerly shared between different uses. This is a first step towards a more general plan of getting rid of special-purpose kluges for sharing code in src/bin/. I chose to merge kwlookup.c back into keywords.c, as it once was, and always has been so far as keywords.h is concerned. We could have kept them separate, but there is noplace that uses ScanKeywordLookup without also wanting access to the backend's keyword list, so there seems little point. ecpg is still a bit weird, but at least now the trickiness is documented. I think that the MSVC build script should require no adjustments beyond what's done here ... but we'll soon find out.

2016-03-19Build backend/parser/scan.l and interfaces/ecpg/preproc/pgc.l standalone.Tom Lane
Now that we know about the %top{} trick, we can revert to building flex lexers as separate .o files. This is worth doing for a couple of reasons besides sheer cleanliness. We can narrow the scope of the -Wno-error flag that's forced on scan.c. Also, since these grammar and lexer files are so large, splitting them into separate build targets should have some advantages in build speed, particularly in parallel or ccache'd builds. We have quite a few other .l files that could be changed likewise, but the above arguments don't apply to them, so the benefit of fixing them seems pretty minimal. Leave the rest for some other day.
2016-03-16Be more careful about out-of-range dates and timestamps.Tom Lane
Tighten the semantics of boundary-case timestamptz so that we allow timestamps >= '4714-11-24 00:00+00 BC' and < 'ENDYEAR-01-01 00:00+00 AD' exactly, no more and no less, but it is allowed to enter timestamps within that range using non-GMT timezone offsets (which could make the nominal date 4714-11-23 BC or ENDYEAR-01-01 AD). This eliminates dump/reload failure conditions for timestamps near the endpoints. To do this, separate checking of the inputs for date2j() from the final range check, and allow the Julian date code to handle a range slightly wider than the nominal range of the datatypes. Also add a bunch of checks to detect out-of-range dates and timestamps that formerly could be returned by operations such as date-plus-integer. All C-level functions that return date, timestamp, or timestamptz should now be proof against returning a value that doesn't pass IS_VALID_DATE() or IS_VALID_TIMESTAMP().

2015-12-14Fix out-of-memory error handling in ParameterDescription message processing.Heikki Linnakangas
If libpq ran out of memory while constructing the result set, it would hang, waiting for more data from the server, which might never arrive. To fix, distinguish between out-of-memory error and not-enough-data cases, and give a proper error message back to the client on OOM. There are still similar issues in handling COPY start messages, but let's handle that as a separate patch. Michael Paquier, Amit Kapila and me. Backpatch to all supported versions.

2015-11-27Improve PQhost() to return useful data for default Unix-socket connections.Tom Lane
Previously, if no host information had been specified at connection time, PQhost() would return NULL (unless you are on Windows, in which case you got "localhost"). This is an unhelpful definition for a couple of reasons: it can cause corner-case crashes in applications (cf commit c5ef8ce53d), and there's no well-defined way for applications to find out the socket directory path that's actually in use. As an example of the latter problem, psql substituted DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR for NULL in a couple of places, but this is subtly wrong because it's conceivable that psql is using a libpq shared library that was built with a different setting. Hence, change PQhost() to return DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR when appropriate, and strip out the now-dead substitutions in psql. (There is still one remaining reference to DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR in psql, in prompt.c, which I don't see a nice way to get rid of. But it only controls a prompt abbreviation decision, so it seems noncritical.) Also update the docs for PQhost, which had never previously mentioned the possibility of a socket directory path being returned. In passing fix the outright-incorrect code comment about PGconn.pgunixsocket.
2015-11-12Fix unwanted flushing of libpq's input buffer when socket EOF is seen.Tom Lane
In commit 210eb9b743c0645d I centralized libpq's logic for closing down the backend communication socket, and made the new pqDropConnection routine always reset the I/O buffers to empty. Many of the call sites previously had not had such code, and while that amounted to an oversight in some cases, there was one place where it was intentional and necessary *not* to flush the input buffer: pqReadData should never cause that to happen, since we probably still want to process whatever data we read. This is the true cause of the problem Robert was attempting to fix in c3e7c24a1d60dc6a, namely that libpq no longer reported the backend's final ERROR message before reporting "server closed the connection unexpectedly". But that only accidentally fixed it, by invoking parseInput before the input buffer got flushed; and very likely there are timing scenarios where we'd still lose the message before processing it. To fix, pass a flag to pqDropConnection to tell it whether to flush the input buffer or not. On review I think flushing is actually correct for every other call site. Back-patch to 9.3 where the problem was introduced. In HEAD, also improve the comments added by c3e7c24a1d60dc6a.
2015-11-12libpq: Notice errors a backend may have sent just before dying.Robert Haas

2015-09-28Fix poor errno handling in libpq's version of our custom OpenSSL BIO.Tom Lane
Thom Brown reported that SSL connections didn't seem to work on Windows in 9.5. Asif Naeem figured out that the cause was my_sock_read() looking at "errno" when it needs to look at "SOCK_ERRNO". This mistake was introduced in commit 680513ab79c7e12e402a2aad7921b95a25a4bcc8, which cloned the backend's custom SSL BIO code into libpq, and didn't translate the errno handling properly. Moreover, it introduced unnecessary errno save/restore logic, which was particularly confusing because it was incomplete; and it failed to check for all three of EINTR, EAGAIN, and EWOULDBLOCK in my_sock_write. (That might not be necessary; but since we're copying well-tested backend code that does do that, it seems prudent to copy it faithfully.)
