~/.pgpass is a sound choice everywhere, and "peer" authentication is  
safe on every platform it supports.  Cease to recommend "trust"  
authentication, the safety of which is deeply configuration-specific.

If pg_regcomp failed after having invoked markst/cleanst, it would leak any  
"struct subre" nodes it had created.  (We've already detected all regex  
syntax errors at that point, so the only likely causes of later failure  
would be query cancel or out-of-memory.)  To fix, make sure freesrnode  
knows the difference between the pre-cleanst and post-cleanst cleanup  
procedures.  Add some documentation of this less-than-obvious point.  
  
Also, newlacon did the wrong thing with an out-of-memory failure from  
realloc(), so that the previously allocated array would be leaked.  
  
Both of these are pretty low-probability scenarios, but a bug is a bug,  
so patch all the way back.

Trying to reassign objects owned by a user that had text search  
dictionaries or configurations used to fail with:  
ERROR:  unexpected classid 3600  
or  
ERROR:  unexpected classid 3602  
  
Fix by adding cases for those object types in a switch in pg_shdepend.c.  
  
Both REASSIGN OWNED and text search objects go back all the way to 8.1,  
so backpatch to all supported branches.  In 9.3 the alter-owner code was  
made generic, so the required change in recent branches is pretty  
simple; however, for 9.2 and older ones we need some additional  
reshuffling to enable specifying objects by OID rather than name.  
  
Text search templates and parsers are not owned objects, so there's no  
change required for them.

ExecEvalWholeRowVar incorrectly supposed that it could "bless" the source  
TupleTableSlot just once per query.  But if the input is coming from an  
Append (or, perhaps, other cases?) more than one slot might be returned  
over the query run.  This led to "record type has not been registered"  
errors when a composite datum was extracted from a non-blessed slot.  
  
This bug has been there a long time; I guess it escaped notice because when  
dealing with subqueries the planner tends to expand whole-row Vars into  
RowExprs, which don't have the same problem.  It is possible to trigger  
the problem in all active branches, though, as illustrated by the added  
regression test.

While the x output of "select x from t group by x" can be presumed unique,  
this does not hold for "select x, generate_series(1,10) from t group by x",  
because we may expand the set-returning function after the grouping step.  
(Perhaps that should be re-thought; but considering all the other oddities  
involved with SRFs in targetlists, it seems unlikely we'll change it.)  
Put a check in query_is_distinct_for() so it's not fooled by such cases.  
  
Back-patch to all supported branches.

This function wasn't originally thought to be really user-facing,  
because converting a table to a view isn't something we expect people  
to do manually.  So not all that much effort was spent on the error  
messages; in particular, while the code will complain that you got  
the column types wrong it won't say exactly what they are.  But since  
we repurposed the code to also check compatibility of rule RETURNING  
lists, it's definitely user-facing.  It now seems worthwhile to add  
errdetail messages showing exactly what the conflict is when there's  
a mismatch of column names or types.  This is prompted by bug #10836  
from Matthias Raffelsieper, which might have been forestalled if the  
error message had reported the wrong column type as being "record".  
  
Per Alvaro's advice, back-patch to branches before 9.4, but resist  
the temptation to rephrase any existing strings there.  Adding new  
strings is not really a translation degradation; anyway having the  
info presented in English is better than not having it at all.

The output buffer size in unaccent_lexize() was calculated as input string  
length times pg_database_encoding_max_length(), which effectively assumes  
that replacement strings aren't more than one character.  While that was  
all that we previously documented it to support, the code actually has  
always allowed replacement strings of arbitrary length; so if you tried  
to make use of longer strings, you were at risk of buffer overrun.  To fix,  
use an expansible StringInfo buffer instead of trying to determine the  
maximum space needed a-priori.  
  
This would be a security issue if unaccent rules files could be installed  
by unprivileged users; but fortunately they can't, so in the back branches  
the problem can be labeled as improper configuration by a superuser.  
Nonetheless, a memory stomp isn't a nice way of reacting to improper  
configuration, so let's back-patch the fix.

ExecMakeTableFunctionResult evaluated the arguments for a function-in-FROM  
in the query-lifespan memory context.  This is insignificant in simple  
cases where the function relation is scanned only once; but if the function  
is in a sub-SELECT or is on the inside of a nested loop, any memory  
consumed during argument evaluation can add up quickly.  (The potential for  
trouble here had been foreseen long ago, per existing comments; but we'd  
not previously seen a complaint from the field about it.)  To fix, create  
an additional temporary context just for this purpose.  
  
Per an example from MauMau.  Back-patch to all active branches.

Any OS user able to access the socket can connect as the bootstrap  
superuser and proceed to execute arbitrary code as the OS user running  
the test.  Protect against that by placing the socket in a temporary,  
mode-0700 subdirectory of /tmp.  The pg_regress-based test suites and  
the pg_upgrade test suite were vulnerable; the $(prove_check)-based test  
suites were already secure.  Back-patch to 8.4 (all supported versions).  
The hazard remains wherever the temporary cluster accepts TCP  
connections, notably on Windows.  
  
As a convenient side effect, this lets testing proceed smoothly in  
builds that override DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR.  Popular non-default values  
like /var/run/postgresql are often unwritable to the build user.

Fix pg_restore's processing of old-style BLOB COMMENTS data.

Prior to 9.0, pg_dump handled comments on large objects by dumping a bunch  
of COMMENT commands into a single BLOB COMMENTS archive object.  With  
sufficiently many such comments, some of the commands would likely get  
split across bufferloads when restoring, causing failures in  
direct-to-database restores (though no problem would be evident in text  
output).  This is the same type of issue we have with table data dumped as  
INSERT commands, and it can be fixed in the same way, by using a mini SQL  
lexer to figure out where the command boundaries are.  Fortunately, the  
COMMENT commands are no more complex to lex than INSERTs, so we can just  
re-use the existing lexer for INSERTs.

When we grabbed this file off the Snowball project's website, we mistakenly  
supposed that it was in LATIN1 encoding, but evidently it was actually in  
LATIN2.  This resulted in ő (o-double-acute, U+0151, which is code 0xF5 in  
LATIN2) being misconverted into õ (o-tilde, U+00F5), as complained of in  
bug #10589 from Zoltán Sörös.  We'd have messed up u-double-acute too,  
but there aren't any of those in the file.  Other characters used in the  
file have the same codes in LATIN1 and LATIN2, which no doubt helped hide  
the problem for so long.  
  
The error is not only ours: the Snowball project also was confused about  
which encoding is required for Hungarian.  But dealing with that will  
require source-code changes that I'm not at all sure we'll wish to  
back-patch.  Fixing the stopword file seems reasonably safe to back-patch  
however.

It's critical that the backend's idea of LOBLKSIZE match the way data has  
actually been divided up in pg_largeobject.  While we don't provide any  
direct way to adjust that value, doing so is a one-line source code change  
and various people have expressed interest recently in changing it.  So,  
just as with TOAST_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE, it seems prudent to record the value in  
pg_control and cross-check that the backend's compiled-in setting matches  
the on-disk data.  
  
Also tweak the code in inv_api.c so that fetches from pg_largeobject  
explicitly verify that the length of the data field is not more than  
LOBLKSIZE.  Formerly we just had Asserts() for that, which is no protection  
at all in production builds.  In some of the call sites an overlength data  
value would translate directly to a security-relevant stack clobber, so it  
seems worth one extra runtime comparison to be sure.  
  
In the back branches, we can't change the contents of pg_control; but we  
can still make the extra checks in inv_api.c, which will offer some amount  
of protection against running with the wrong value of LOBLKSIZE.

HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() didn't properly discern between  
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS and INSERT_IN_PROGRESS for rows that have been  
inserted in the current transaction and deleted in a aborted  
subtransaction of the current backend. At the very least that caused  
problems for CLUSTER and CREATE INDEX in transactions that had  
aborting subtransactions producing rows, leading to warnings like:  
WARNING:  concurrent delete in progress within table "..."  
possibly in an endless, uninterruptible, loop.  
  
Instead of treating *InProgress xmins the same as *IsCurrent ones,  
treat them as being distinct like the other visibility routines. As  
implemented this separatation can cause a behaviour change for rows  
that have been inserted and deleted in another, still running,  
transaction. HTSV will now return INSERT_IN_PROGRESS instead of  
DELETE_IN_PROGRESS for those. That's both, more in line with the other  
visibility routines and arguably more correct. The latter because a  
INSERT_IN_PROGRESS will make callers look at/wait for xmin, instead of  
xmax.  
The only current caller where that's possibly worse than the old  
behaviour is heap_prune_chain() which now won't mark the page as  
prunable if a row has concurrently been inserted and deleted. That's  
harmless enough.  
  
As a cautionary measure also insert a interrupt check before the gotos  
in IndexBuildHeapScan() that lead to the uninterruptible loop. There  
are other possible causes, like a row that several sessions try to  
update and all fail, for repeated loops and the cost of doing so in  
the retry case is low.  
  
As this bug goes back all the way to the introduction of  
subtransactions in 573a71a5da backpatch to all supported releases.

As of Xcode 5.0, Apple isn't including the Python framework as part of the  
SDK-level files, which means that linking to it might fail depending on  
whether Xcode thinks you've selected a specific SDK version.  According to  
their Tech Note 2328, they've basically deprecated the framework method of  
linking to libpython and are telling people to link to the shared library  
normally.  (I'm pretty sure this is in direct contradiction to the advice  
they were giving a few years ago, but whatever.)  Testing says that this  
approach works fine at least as far back as OS X 10.4.11, so let's just  
rip out the framework special case entirely.  We do still need a special  
case to decide that OS X provides a shared library at all, unfortunately  
(I wonder why the distutils check doesn't work ...).  But this is still  
less of a special case than before, so it's fine.  
  
Back-patch to all supported branches, since we'll doubtless be hearing  
about this more as more people update to recent Xcode.

When using the OSSP UUID library, cache its uuid_t state object.

The original coding in contrib/uuid-ossp created and destroyed a uuid_t  
object (or, in some cases, even two of them) each time it was called.  
This is not the intended usage: you're supposed to keep the uuid_t object  
around so that the library can cache its state across uses.  (Other UUID  
libraries seem to keep equivalent state behind-the-scenes in static  
variables, but OSSP chose differently.)  Aside from being quite inefficient,  
creating a new uuid_t loses knowledge of the previously generated UUID,  
which in theory could result in duplicate V1-style UUIDs being created  
on sufficiently fast machines.  
  
On at least some platforms, creating a new uuid_t also draws some entropy  
from /dev/urandom, leaving less for the rest of the system.  This seems  
sufficiently unpleasant to justify back-patching this change.

This reverts commit a670f5ed1ad0a472c4981b821bfcfc2c9dd0c2fd.  
  
It turns out that the %name-prefix syntax without "=" does not work  
at all in pre-2.4 Bison.  We are not prepared to make such a large  
jump in minimum required Bison version just to suppress a warning  
message in a version hardly any developers are using yet.  
When 3.0 gets more popular, we'll figure out a way to deal with this.  
In the meantime, BISONFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated is recommendable for  
anyone using 3.0 who doesn't want to see the warning.

%name-prefix doesn't use an "=" sign according to the Bison docs, but it  
silently accepted one anyway, until Bison 3.0.  This was originally a

On Mingw, it seems that scanf() doesn't necessarily accept the same format  
codes that printf() does, and in particular it may fail to recognize %llu  
even though printf() does.  Since configure only probes printf() behavior  
while setting up the INT64_FORMAT macros, this means it's unsafe to use  
those macros with scanf().  We had only one instance of such a coding  
pattern, in contrib/pg_stat_statements, so change that code to avoid  
the problem.  
  
Per buildfarm warnings.  Back-patch to 9.0 where the troublesome code  
was introduced.

Commit dd428c79 added dbId and tsId to the xl_xact_commit struct but missed  
that prepared transaction commits reuse that struct. Fix that.  
  
Because those fields were left unitialized, replaying a commit prepared WAL  
record in a hot standby node would fail to remove the relcache init file.  
That can lead to "could not open file" errors on the standby. Relcache init  
file only needs to be removed when a system table/index is rewritten in the  
transaction using two phase commit, so that should be rare in practice. In  
HEAD, the incorrect dbId/tsId values are also used for filtering in logical  
replication code, causing the transaction to always be filtered out.

In yesterday's commit 2dc4f011fd61501cce507be78c39a2677690d44b, I tried  
to force buffering of stdout/stderr in initdb to be what it is by  
default when the program is run interactively on Unix (since that's how  
most manual testing is done).  This tripped over the fact that Windows  
doesn't support _IOLBF mode.  We dealt with that a long time ago in  
syslogger.c by falling back to unbuffered mode on Windows.  Export that  
solution in port.h and use it in initdb.

To lock a prepared transaction's shared memory entry, we used to mark it  
with the XID of the backend. When the XID was no longer active according  
to the proc array, the entry was implicitly considered as not locked  
anymore. However, when preparing a transaction, the backend's proc array  
entry was cleared before transfering the locks (and some other state) to  
the prepared transaction's dummy PGPROC entry, so there was a window where  
another backend could finish the transaction before it was in fact fully  
prepared.  
  
To fix, rewrite the locking mechanism of global transaction entries. Instead  
of an XID, just have simple locked-or-not flag in each entry (we store the  
locking backend's backend id rather than a simple boolean, but that's just  
for debugging purposes). The backend is responsible for explicitly unlocking  
the entry, and to make sure that that happens, install a callback to unlock  
it on abort or process exit.

Since this program may print to either stdout or stderr, the relative  
ordering of its messages depends on the buffering behavior of those files.  
Force stdout to be line-buffered and stderr to be unbuffered, ensuring

when stdout and stderr are rerouted to a file.

The code expands a varbit gist leaf key to a node key by copying the bit  
data twice in a varlen datum, as both the lower and upper key. The lower key  
was expanded to INTALIGN size, but the padding bytes were not initialized.  
That's a problem because when the lower/upper keys are compared, the padding  
bytes are used compared too, when the values are otherwise equal. That could  
lead to incorrect query results.  
  
REINDEX is advised for any btree_gist indexes on bit or bit varying data  
type, to fix any garbage padding bytes on disk.

Avoid buffer bloat in libpq when server is consistently faster than client.

If the server sends a long stream of data, and the server + network are  
consistently fast enough to force the recv() loop in pqReadData() to  
iterate until libpq's input buffer is full, then upon processing the last  
incomplete message in each bufferload we'd usually double the buffer size,  
due to supposing that we didn't have enough room in the buffer to finish  
collecting that message.  After filling the newly-enlarged buffer, the  
cycle repeats, eventually resulting in an out-of-memory situation (which  
would be reported misleadingly as "lost synchronization with server").  
Of course, we should not enlarge the buffer unless we still need room  
after discarding already-processed messages.  
  
This bug dates back quite a long time: pqParseInput3 has had the behavior  
since perhaps 2003, getCopyDataMessage at least since commit 70066eb1a1ad  
in 2008.  Probably the reason it's not been isolated before is that in  
common environments the recv() loop would always be faster than the server  
(if on the same machine) or faster than the network (if not); or at least  
it wouldn't be slower consistently enough to let the buffer ramp up to a  
problematic size.  The reported cases involve Windows, which perhaps has  
different timing behavior than other platforms.

proposed solution.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

calls (nodeLimit.c does so, at least).  The wisdom of that is somewhat  
debatable, perhaps, but for now the simplest fix is to make sure the  
required context is valid.  Failure to do this typically led to a  
null-pointer-dereference core dump, though it's possible that in more  
complex cases a function could be executed with the wrong snapshot  
leading to very subtle misbehavior.  
  
Per report from Leif Jensen.  It's been broken for a long time, so  
back-patch to all active branches.

Commit 4318daecc959886d001a6e79c6ea853e8b1dfb4b introduced a test that  
couldn't be made consistent between integer and floating-point  
timestamps.  
  
It was designed to test the longest possible interval output length,  
so removing four zeros from the number of hours, as this patch does,  
is not ideal. But the test still has some utility for its original  
purpose, and there aren't a lot of other good options.  
  
Noah Misch suggested a different approach where we test that the  
output either matches what we expect from integer timestamps or what  
we expect from floating-point timestamps. That seemed to obscure an  
otherwise simple test, however.

When array of char * was used as target for a FETCH statement returning more  
than one row, it tried to store all the result in the first element. Instead it  
should dump array of char pointers with right offset, use the address instead  
of the value of the C variable while reading the array and treat such variable  
as char **, instead of char * for pointer arithmetic.

Commit fad153ec45299bd4d4f29dec8d9e04e2f1c08148 modified sinval.c to reduce  
the number of calls into sinvaladt.c (which require taking a shared lock)  
by keeping a local buffer of collected-but-not-yet-processed messages.  
However, if processing of the last message in a batch resulted in a  
recursive call to ReceiveSharedInvalidMessages, we could overwrite that  
message with a new one while the outer invalidation function was still  
working on it.  This would be likely to lead to invalidation of the wrong  
cache entry, allowing subsequent processing to use stale cache data.  
The fix is just to make a local copy of each message while we're processing  
it.

This test used to just define an unused static inline function and check  
whether that causes a warning.  But newer clang versions warn about  
unused static inline functions when defined inside a .c file, but not  
when defined in an included header, which is the case we care about.  
Change the test to cope.

Fix failure to detoast fields in composite elements of structured types.

If we have an array of records stored on disk, the individual record fields  
cannot contain out-of-line TOAST pointers: the tuptoaster.c mechanisms are  
only prepared to deal with TOAST pointers appearing in top-level fields of  
a stored row.  The same applies for ranges over composite types, nested  
composites, etc.  However, the existing code only took care of expanding  
sub-field TOAST pointers for the case of nested composites, not for other  
structured types containing composites.  For example, given a command such  
as  
  
UPDATE tab SET arraycol = ARRAY[(ROW(x,42)::mycompositetype] ...  
  
where x is a direct reference to a field of an on-disk tuple, if that field  
is long enough to be toasted out-of-line then the TOAST pointer would be  
inserted as-is into the array column.  If the source record for x is later  
deleted, the array field value would become a dangling pointer, leading  
to errors along the line of "missing chunk number 0 for toast value ..."  
when the value is referenced.  A reproducible test case for this was  
provided by Jan Pecek, but it seems likely that some of the "missing chunk  
number" reports we've heard in the past were caused by similar issues.  
  
Code-wise, the problem is that PG_DETOAST_DATUM() is not adequate to  
produce a self-contained Datum value if the Datum is of composite type.  
Seen in this light, the problem is not just confined to arrays and ranges,  
but could also affect some other places where detoasting is done in that  
way, for example form_index_tuple().  
  
I tried teaching the array code to apply toast_flatten_tuple_attribute()  
along with PG_DETOAST_DATUM() when the array element type is composite,  
but this was messy and imposed extra cache lookup costs whether or not any  
TOAST pointers were present, indeed sometimes when the array element type  
isn't even composite (since sometimes it takes a typcache lookup to find  
that out).  The idea of extending that approach to all the places that  
currently use PG_DETOAST_DATUM() wasn't attractive at all.  
  
This patch instead solves the problem by decreeing that composite Datum  
values must not contain any out-of-line TOAST pointers in the first place;  
that is, we expand out-of-line fields at the point of constructing a  
composite Datum, not at the point where we're about to insert it into a  
larger tuple.  This rule is applied only to true composite Datums, not  
to tuples that are being passed around the system as tuples, so it's not  
as invasive as it might sound at first.  With this approach, the amount  
of code that has to be touched for a full solution is greatly reduced,  
and added cache lookup costs are avoided except when there actually is  
a TOAST pointer that needs to be inlined.  
  
The main drawback of this approach is that we might sometimes dereference  
a TOAST pointer that will never actually be used by the query, imposing a  
rather large cost that wasn't there before.  On the other side of the coin,  
if the field value is used multiple times then we'll come out ahead by  
avoiding repeat detoastings.  Experimentation suggests that common SQL  
coding patterns are unaffected either way, though.  Applications that are  
very negatively affected could be advised to modify their code to not fetch  
columns they won't be using.  
  
In future, we might consider reverting this solution in favor of detoasting  
only at the point where data is about to be stored to disk, using some  
method that can drill down into multiple levels of nested structured types.  
That will require defining new APIs for structured types, though, so it  
doesn't seem feasible as a back-patchable fix.  
  
Note that this patch changes HeapTupleGetDatum() from a macro to a function  
call; this means that any third-party code using that macro will not get  
protection against creating TOAST-pointer-containing Datums until it's  
recompiled.  The same applies to any uses of PG_RETURN_HEAPTUPLEHEADER().  
It seems likely that this is not a big problem in practice: most of the  
tuple-returning functions in core and contrib produce outputs that could  
not possibly be toasted anyway, and the same probably holds for third-party  
extensions.  
  
This bug has existed since TOAST was invented, so back-patch to all  
supported branches.

Since ruleutils.c recurses, it could be driven to stack overflow by  
deeply nested constructs.  Very large queries might also take long  
enough to deparse that a check for interrupts seems like a good idea.

In writeListPage, never take a full-page image of the page, because we  
have all the information required to re-initialize in the WAL record  
anyway. Before this fix, a full-page image was always generated, unless  
full_page_writes=off, because when the page is initialized its LSN is  
always 0. In stable-branches, keep the code to restore the backup blocks  
if they exist, in case that the WAL is generated with an older minor  
version, but in master Assert that there are no full-page images.  
  
In the redo routine, add missing "off++". Otherwise the tuples are added  
to the page in reverse order. That happens to be harmless because we  
always scan and remove all the tuples together, but it was clearly wrong.  
Also, it was masked by the first bug unless full_page_writes=off, because  
the page was always restored from a full-page image.

Once we've completed a PREPARE, our session is not running a transaction,  
so its entry in pg_stat_activity should show xact_start as null, rather  
than leaving the value as the start time of the now-prepared transaction.  
  
I think possibly this oversight was triggered by faulty extrapolation  
from the adjacent comment that says PrepareTransaction should not call  
AtEOXact_PgStat, so tweak the wording of that comment.

According to the Single Unix Spec and assorted man pages, you're supposed  
to use the constants named AF_xxx when setting ai_family for a getaddrinfo  
call.  In a few places we were using PF_xxx instead.  Use of PF_xxx  
appears to be an ancient BSD convention that was not adopted by later  
standardization.  On BSD and most later Unixen, it doesn't matter much  
because those constants have equivalent values anyway; but nonetheless  
this code is not per spec.  
  
In the same vein, replace PF_INET by AF_INET in one socket() call, which  
wasn't even consistent with the other socket() call in the same function  
let alone the remainder of our code.  
  
Per investigation of a Cygwin trouble report from Marco Atzeri.  It's  
probably a long shot that this will fix his issue, but it's wrong in  
any case.

Bind attempts to an LDAP server should time out after two seconds,  
allowing additional lines in the service control file to be parsed  
(which provide a fall back to a secondary LDAP server or default options).  
The existing code failed to enforce that timeout during TCP connect,  
resulting in a hang far longer than two seconds if the LDAP server  
does not respond.

Don't reset the rightlink of a page when replaying a page update record.  
This was a leftover from pre-hot standby days, when it was not possible to  
have scans concurrent with WAL replay. Resetting the right-link was not  
necessary back then either, but it was done for the sake of tidiness. But  
with hot standby, it's wrong, because a concurrent scan might still need it.  
  
Backpatch all versions with hot standby, 9.0 and above.

Formerly, we set up the postmaster's signal handling only when we were  
about to start launching subprocesses.  This is a bad idea though, as  
it means that for example a SIGINT arriving before that will kill the  
postmaster instantly, perhaps leaving lockfiles, socket files, shared  
memory, etc laying about.  We'd rather that such a signal caused orderly  
postmaster termination including releasing of those resources.  A simple  
fix is to move the PostmasterMain stanza that initializes signal handling  
to an earlier point, before we've created any such resources.  Then, an  
early-arriving signal will be blocked until we're ready to deal with it  
in the usual way.  (The only part that really needs to be moved up is  
blocking of signals, but it seems best to keep the signal handler  
installation calls together with that; for one thing this ensures the  
kernel won't drop any signals we wished to get.  The handlers won't get  
invoked in any case until we unblock signals in ServerLoop.)  
  
Per a report from MauMau.  He proposed changing the way "pg_ctl stop"  
works to deal with this, but that'd just be masking one symptom not  
fixing the core issue.  
  
It's been like this since forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.

EXEC_BACKEND builds (i.e., Windows) failed to absorb values of PGC_BACKEND  
parameters if they'd been changed post-startup via the config file.  This  
for example prevented log_connections from working if it were turned on  
post-startup.  The mechanism for handling this case has always been a bit  
of a kluge, and it wasn't revisited when we implemented EXEC_BACKEND.  
While in a normal forking environment new backends will inherit the  
postmaster's value of such settings, EXEC_BACKEND backends have to read  
the settings from the CONFIG_EXEC_PARAMS file, and they were mistakenly  
rejecting them.  So this case has always been broken in the Windows port;  
so back-patch to all supported branches.

The advice to join to pg_prepared_xacts via the transaction column was not  
updated when the transaction column was replaced by virtualtransaction.  
Since it's not quite obvious how to do that join, give an explicit example.  
For consistency also give an example for the adjacent case of joining to  
pg_stat_activity.  And link-ify the view references too, just because we  
can.  Per bug #9840 from Alexey Bashtanov.

Any OS user able to access the socket can connect as the bootstrap  
superuser and in turn execute arbitrary code as the OS user running the  
test.  Protect against that by placing the socket in the temporary data  
directory, which has mode 0700 thanks to initdb.  Back-patch to 8.4 (all  
supported versions).  The hazard remains wherever the temporary cluster  
accepts TCP connections, notably on Windows.  
  
Attempts to run "make check" from a directory with a long name will now  
fail.  An alternative not sharing that problem was to place the socket  
in a subdirectory of /tmp, but that is only secure if /tmp is sticky.  
The PG_REGRESS_SOCK_DIR environment variable is available as a  
workaround when testing from long directory paths.  
  
As a convenient side effect, this lets testing proceed smoothly in  
builds that override DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR.  Popular non-default values  
like /var/run/postgresql are often unwritable to the build user.

We must increment the refcount on "plntup" as soon as we have the  
reference, not sometime later.  Otherwise, if an error is thrown in  
between, the Py_XDECREF(plntup) call in the PG_CATCH block removes a  
refcount we didn't add, allowing the object to be freed even though  
it's still part of the plpython function's parsetree.  
  
This appears to be the cause of crashes seen on buildfarm member  
prairiedog.  It's a bit surprising that we've not seen it fail repeatably  
before, considering that the regression tests have been exercising the  
faulty code path since 2009.  
  
The real-world impact is probably minimal, since it's unlikely anyone would  
be provoking the "TD["new"] is not a dictionary" error in production, and  
that's the only case that is actually wrong.  Still, it's a bug affecting  
the regression tests, so patch all supported branches.  
  
In passing, remove dead variable "plstr", and demote "platt" to a local  
variable inside the PG_TRY block, since we don't need to clean it up  
in the PG_CATCH path.
