When running on Windows, canonicalize_path() converts '\' to '/'
to prevent confusing the Windows command processor. It was
doing that in a non-encoding-aware fashion; but in SJIS there
are valid two-byte characters whose second byte matches '\'.
So encoding corruption ensues if such a character is used in
the path.
We can fairly easily fix this if we know which encoding is
in use, but a lot of our utilities don't have much of a clue
about that. After some discussion we decided we'd settle for
fixing this only in psql, and assuming that its value of
client_encoding matches what the user is typing.
It seems hopeless to get the server to deal with the problematic
characters in database path names, so we'll just declare that
case to be unsupported. That means nothing need be done in
the server, nor in utility programs whose only contact with
file path names is for database paths. But psql frequently
deals with client-side file paths, so it'd be good if it
didn't mess those up.

Remove src/port/user.c, call getpwuid_r() directly. This reduces some
complexity and allows better control of the error behavior. For
example, the old code would in some circumstances silently truncate
the result string, or produce error message strings that the caller
wouldn't use.
src/port/user.c used to be called src/port/thread.c and contained
various portability complications to support thread-safety. These are
all obsolete, and all but the user-lookup functions have already been
removed. This patch completes this by also removing the user-lookup
functions.
Also convert src/backend/libpq/auth.c to use getpwuid_r() for
thread-safety.
Originally, I tried to be overly correct by using
sysconf(_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) to get the buffer size for getpwuid_r(),
but that doesn't work on FreeBSD. All the OS where I could find the
source code internally use 1024 as the suggested buffer size, so I
just ended up hardcoding that. The previous code used BUFSIZ, which
is an unrelated constant from stdio.h, so its use seemed
inappropriate.

Most callers of strerror() are removed from the backend code. The
remaining callers require special handling with a saved errno from a
previous system call. The frontend code still needs strerror() where
error states need to be handled outside of fprintf.
Note that pg_regress is not changed to use %m as the TAP output may
clobber errno, since those functions call fprintf() and friends before
evaluating the format string.
Support for %m in src/port/snprintf.c has been added in d6c55de1f99a,
hence all the stable branches currently supported include it.

Since C99, there can be a trailing comma after the last value in an
enum definition. A lot of new code has been introducing this style on
the fly. Some new patches are now taking an inconsistent approach to
this. Some add the last comma on the fly if they add a new last
value, some are trying to preserve the existing style in each place,
some are even dropping the last comma if there was one. We could
nudge this all in a consistent direction if we just add the trailing
commas everywhere once.
I omitted a few places where there was a fixed "last" value that will
always stay last. I also skipped the header files of libpq and ecpg,
in case people want to use those with older compilers. There were
also a small number of cases where the enum type wasn't used anywhere
(but the enum values were), which ended up confusing pgindent a bit,
so I left those alone.

Given the existing stipulation that path_contains_parent_reference()
must only be invoked on canonicalized paths, we can simplify things
in the wake of commit c10f830c5. It is now only possible to see
".." at the start of a relative path. That means we can simplify
path_contains_parent_reference() itself quite a bit, and it makes
the two existing outside call sites dead code, since they'd already
checked that the path is absolute.
We could now fold path_contains_parent_reference() into its only
remaining caller path_is_relative_and_below_cwd(). But it seems
better to leave it as a separately callable function, in case any
extensions are using it.
Also document the pre-existing requirement for
path_is_relative_and_below_cwd's input to be likewise canonicalized.

Teach canonicalize_path() how to strip all unnecessary uses of "."
and "..", replacing the previous ad-hoc code that got rid of only
some such cases. In particular, we can always remove all such
uses from absolute paths.
The proximate reason to do this is that Windows rejects paths
involving ".." in some cases (in particular, you can't put one in a
symlink), so we ought to be sure we don't use ".." unnecessarily.
Moreover, it seems like good cleanup on general principles.
There is other path-munging code that could be simplified now, but
we'll leave that for followup work.
It is tempting to call this a bug fix and back-patch it. On the other
hand, the misbehavior can only be reached if a highly privileged user
does something dubious, so it's not unreasonable to say "so don't do
that". And this patch could result in unexpected behavioral changes,
in case anybody was expecting uses of ".." to stay put. So at least
for now, just put it in HEAD.

The point of this patch is to reduce inclusion spam by not needing
to #include <netdb.h> or <pwd.h> in port.h (which is read by every
compile in our tree). To do that, we must remove port.h's
declarations of pqGetpwuid and pqGethostbyname.
pqGethostbyname is only used, and is only ever likely to be used,
in src/port/getaddrinfo.c --- which isn't even built on most
platforms, making pqGethostbyname dead code for most people.
Hence, deal with that by just moving it into getaddrinfo.c.
To clean up pqGetpwuid, invent a couple of simple wrapper
functions with less-messy APIs. This allows removing some
duplicate error-handling code, too.
In passing, remove thread.c from the MSVC build, since it
contains nothing we use on Windows.

When we need to identify the home directory on non-Windows, first
consult getenv("HOME"). If that's empty or unset, fall back
on our previous method of checking the <pwd.h> database.
Preferring $HOME allows the user to intentionally point at some
other directory, and it seems to be in line with the behavior of
most other utilities. However, we shouldn't rely on it completely,
as $HOME is likely to be unset when running as a daemon.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

application to src/common in support of sharing it with a new
system information SRF called pg_config() which makes the same
information available via SQL. Additionally wrap the SRF with a

Backpatch certain files through 9.1

Some users run their applications in chroot environments that lack an
/etc/passwd file. This means that the current UID's user name and home
directory are not obtainable. libpq used to be all right with that,
so long as the database role name to use was specified explicitly.
But commit a4c8f14364c27508233f8a31ac4b10a4c90235a9 broke such cases by
causing any failure of pg_fe_getauthname() to be treated as a hard error.
In any case it did little to advance its nominal goal of causing errors
in pg_fe_getauthname() to be reported better. So revert that and instead
put some real error-reporting code in place. This requires changes to the
APIs of pg_fe_getauthname() and pqGetpwuid(), since the latter had
departed from the POSIX-specified API of getpwuid_r() in a way that made
it impossible to distinguish actual lookup errors from "no such user".
To allow such failures to be reported, while not failing if the caller
supplies a role name, add a second call of pg_fe_getauthname() in
connectOptions2(). This is a tad ugly, and could perhaps be avoided with
some refactoring of PQsetdbLogin(), but I'll leave that idea for later.
(Note that the complained-of misbehavior only occurs in PQsetdbLogin,
not when using the PQconnect functions, because in the latter we will
never bother to call pg_fe_getauthname() if the user gives a role name.)
In passing also clean up the Windows-side usage of GetUserName(): the
recommended buffer size is 257 bytes, the passed buffer length should
be the buffer size not buffer size less 1, and any error is reported
by GetLastError() not errno.
Per report from Christoph Berg. Back-patch to 9.4 where the chroot
failure case was introduced. The generally poor reporting of errors
here is of very long standing, of course, but given the lack of field
complaints about it we won't risk changing these APIs further back
(even though they're theoretically internal to libpq).

This improves consistency with the MSVC build. On buildfarm member
narwhal, since commit 846e91e0223cf9f2821c3ad4dfffffbb929cb027,
shfolder.dll:SHGetFolderPath() crashes when dblink calls it by way of
pqGetHomeDirectory(). Back-patch to 9.4, where that commit first
appeared. How it caused this regression remains a mystery. This is a
partial revert of commit 889f03812916b146ae504c0fad5afdc7bf2e8a2a, which
adopted shfolder.dll for Windows NT 4.0 compatibility. PostgreSQL 8.2
dropped support for that operating system.

This is needed because Windows services may get started with a different
current directory than where pg_ctl is executed. We want relative -D
paths to be interpreted relative to pg_ctl's CWD, similarly to what
happens on other platforms.
In support of this, move the backend's make_absolute_path() function
into src/port/path.c (where it probably should have been long since)
and get rid of the rather inferior version in pg_regress.

join_path_components() tried to remove leading ".." components from its
tail argument, but it was not nearly bright enough to do so correctly
unless the head argument was (a) absolute and (b) canonicalized.
Rather than try to fix that logic, let's just get rid of it: there is no
correctness reason to remove "..", and cosmetic concerns can be taken
care of by a subsequent canonicalize_path() call. Per bug #6715 from
Greg Davidson.
Back-patch to all supported branches. It appears that pre-9.2, this
function is only used with absolute paths as head arguments, which is why
we'd not noticed the breakage before. However, third-party code might be
expecting this function to work in more general cases, so it seems wise
to back-patch.
In HEAD and 9.2, also make some minor cosmetic improvements to callers.

In some hopeless situations, certain library functions in libpq and
libpgport quit the program. Use abort() for that instead of exit(),
so we don't interfere with the normal exit codes the program might
use, we clearly signal the abnormal termination, and the caller has a
chance of catching the termination.
This was originally pointed out by Debian's Lintian program.
