Fix unsafe references to errno within error messaging logic.

Various places were supposing that errno could be expected to hold still
within an ereport() nest or similar contexts.  This isn't true necessarily,
though in some cases it accidentally failed to fail depending on how the
compiler chanced to order the subexpressions.  This class of thinko
explains recent reports of odd failures on clang-built versions, typically
missing or inappropriate HINT fields in messages.

Problem identified by Christian Kruse, who also submitted the patch this
commit is based on.  (I fixed a few issues in his patch and found a couple
of additional places with the same disease.)

Back-patch as appropriate to all supported branches.
Clear MyProc and MyProcSignalState before they become invalid.

Evidence from buildfarm member crake suggests that the new test_shm_mq
module is routinely crashing the server due to the arrival of a SIGUSR1
after the shared memory segment has been unmapped.  Although processes
using the new dynamic background worker facilities are more likely to
receive a SIGUSR1 around this time, the problem is also possible on older
branches, so I'm back-patching the parts of this change that apply to
older branches as far as they apply.

It's already generally the case that code checks whether these pointers
are NULL before deferencing them, so the important thing is mostly to
make sure that they do get set to NULL before they become invalid.  But
in master, there's one case in procsignal_sigusr1_handler that lacks a
NULL guard, so add that.

Patch by me; review by Tom Lane.
Copy the libpq DLL to the bin directory on Mingw and Cygwin.

This has long been done by the MSVC build system, and has caused
confusion in the past when programs like psql have failed to start
because they can't find the DLL. If it's in the same directory as it now
will be they will find it.

Backpatch to all live branches.
Don't use deprecated dllwrap on Cygwin.

The preferred method is to use "cc -shared", and this allows binaries
to be rebased if required, unlike dllwrap.

Backpatch to 9.0 where we have buildfarm coverage.

There are still some issues with Cygwin, especially modern Cygwin, but
this helps us get closer to good support.

Fix some more bugs in signal handlers and process shutdown logic.

WalSndKill was doing things exactly backwards: it should first clear
MyWalSnd (to stop signal handlers from touching MyWalSnd->latch),
then disown the latch, and only then mark the WalSnd struct unused by
clearing its pid field.

Also, WalRcvSigUsr1Handler and worker_spi_sighup failed to preserve
errno, which is surely a requirement for any signal handler.

Per discussion of recent buildfarm failures.  Back-patch as far
as the relevant code exists.

Fix some wide-character bugs in the text-search parser.

In p_isdigit and other character class test functions generated by the
p_iswhat macro, the code path for non-C locales with multibyte encodings
contained a bogus pointer cast that would accidentally fail to malfunction
if types wchar_t and wint_t have the same width.  Apparently that is true
on most platforms, but not on recent Cygwin releases.  Remove the cast,
as it seems completely unnecessary (I think it arose from a false analogy
to the need to cast to unsigned char when dealing with the <ctype.h>
functions).  Per bug #8970 from Marco Atzeri.

In the same functions, the code path for C locale with a multibyte encoding
simply ANDed each wide character with 0xFF before passing it to the
corresponding <ctype.h> function.  This could result in false positive
answers for some non-ASCII characters, so use a range test instead.
Noted by me while investigating Marco's complaint.

Also, remove some useless though not actually buggy maskings and casts
in the hand-coded p_isalnum and p_isalpha functions, which evidently
got tested a bit more carefully than the macro-generated functions.
Fix makefile syntax.
Avoid printing uninitialized filename variable in verbose mode

When using verbose mode for pg_basebackup, in tar format sent to
stdout, we'd print an unitialized buffer as the filename.

Use memmove() instead of memcpy() for copying overlapping regions.

In commit d2495f272cd164ff075bee5c4ce95aed11338a36, I fixed this bug in
to_tsquery(), but missed the fact that plainto_tsquery() has the same bug.
Don't generate plain-text HISTORY and src/test/regress/README anymore.

Providing this information as plain text was doubtless worth the trouble
ten years ago, but it seems likely that hardly anyone reads it in this
format anymore.  And the effort required to maintain these files (in the
form of extra-complex markup rules in the relevant parts of the SGML
documentation) is significant.  So, let's stop doing that and rely solely
on the other documentation formats.

Per discussion, the plain-text INSTALL instructions might still be worth
their keep, so we continue to generate that file.

Rather than remove HISTORY and src/test/regress/README from distribution
tarballs entirely, replace them with simple stub files that tell the reader
where to find the relevant documentation.  This is mainly to avoid possibly
breaking packaging recipes that expect these files to exist.

Back-patch to all supported branches, because simplifying the markup
requirements for release notes won't help much unless we do it in all
branches.
In XLogReadBufferExtended, don't assume P_NEW yields consecutive pages.

In a database that's not yet reached consistency, it's possible that some
segments of a relation are not full-size but are not the last ones either.
Because of the way smgrnblocks() works, asking for a new page with P_NEW
will fill in the last not-full-size segment --- and if that makes it full
size, the apparent EOF of the relation will increase by more than one page,
so that the next P_NEW request will yield a page past the next consecutive
one.  This breaks the relation-extension logic in XLogReadBufferExtended,
possibly allowing a page update to be applied to some page far past where
it was intended to go.  This appears to be the explanation for reports of
table bloat on replication slaves compared to their masters, and probably
explains some corrupted-slave reports as well.

Fix the loop to check the page number it actually got, rather than merely
Assert()'ing that dead reckoning got it to the desired place.  AFAICT,
there are no other places that make assumptions about exactly which page
they'll get from P_NEW.

Problem identified by Greg Stark, though this is not the same as his
proposed patch.

It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.
Improve libpq's error recovery for connection loss during COPY.

In pqSendSome, if the connection is already closed at entry, discard any
queued output data before returning.  There is no possibility of ever
sending the data, and anyway this corresponds to what we'd do if we'd
detected a hard error while trying to send().  This avoids possible
indefinite bloat of the output buffer if the application keeps trying
to send data (or even just keeps trying to do PQputCopyEnd, as psql
indeed will).

Because PQputCopyEnd won't transition out of PGASYNC_COPY_IN state
until it's successfully queued the COPY END message, and pqPutMsgEnd
doesn't distinguish a queuing failure from a pqSendSome failure,
this omission allowed an infinite loop in psql if the connection closure
occurred when we had at least 8K queued to send.  It might be worth
refactoring so that we can make that distinction, but for the moment
the other changes made here seem to offer adequate defenses.

To guard against other variants of this scenario, do not allow
PQgetResult to return a PGRES_COPY_XXX result if the connection is
already known dead.  Make sure it returns PGRES_FATAL_ERROR instead.

Per report from Stephen Frost.  Back-patch to all active branches.
Improve text of stub HISTORY file.

Per Peter Eisentraut.
Improve cross-references between minor version release notes.

We have a practice of providing a "bread crumb" trail between the minor
versions where the migration section actually tells you to do something.
Historically that was just plain text, eg, "see the release notes for
9.2.4"; but if you're using a browser or PDF reader, it's a lot nicer
if it's a live hyperlink.  So use "<xref>" instead.  Any argument against
doing this vanished with the recent decommissioning of plain-text release
notes.

Fix length checking for Unicode identifiers containing escapes (U&"...").

We used the length of the input string, not the de-escaped string, as
the trigger for NAMEDATALEN truncation.  AFAICS this would only result
in sometimes printing a phony truncation warning; but it's just luck
that there was no worse problem, since we were violating the API spec
for truncate_identifier().  Per bug #9204 from Joshua Yanovski.

This has been wrong since the Unicode-identifier support was added,
so back-patch to all supported branches.
Clean up error cases in psql's COPY TO STDOUT/FROM STDIN code.

Adjust handleCopyOut() to stop trying to write data once it's failed
one time.  For typical cases such as out-of-disk-space or broken-pipe,
additional attempts aren't going to do anything but waste time, and
in any case clean truncation of the output seems like a better behavior
than randomly dropping blocks in the middle.

Also remove dubious (and misleadingly documented) attempt to force our way
out of COPY_OUT state if libpq didn't do that.  If we did have a situation
like that, it'd be a bug in libpq and would be better fixed there, IMO.
We can hope that commit fa4440f51628d692f077d54b8313aea31af087ea took care
of any such problems, anyway.

Also fix longstanding bug in handleCopyIn(): PQputCopyEnd() only supports
a non-null errormsg parameter in protocol version 3, and will actively
fail if one is passed in version 2.  This would've made our attempts
to get out of COPY_IN state after a failure into infinite loops when
talking to pre-7.4 servers.

Back-patch the COPY_OUT state change business back to 9.2 where it was
introduced, and the other two fixes into all supported branches.
PL/PgSQL development can be fun on 9.1 as well

In case anyone is reading this, this is a fork of 9.1 with selected
hacks and backpatched features to make PL/PgSQL development less stupid
on 9.1.  And some unrelated cruft in there as well which I'm too lazy to
clean up.

The psql stuff only works on OS X.
