Remove setlocale() and _configthreadlocal() as fallback strategy on
systems that don't have uselocale(), where ECPG tries to control
LC_NUMERIC formatting on input and output of floating point numbers. It
was probably broken on some systems (NetBSD), and the code was also
quite messy and complicated, with obsolete configure tests (Windows).
It was also arguably broken, or at least had unstated environmental
requirements, if pgtypeslib code was called directly.
Instead, introduce PG_C_LOCALE to refer to the "C" locale as a locale_t
value. It maps to the special constant LC_C_LOCALE when defined by libc
(macOS, NetBSD), or otherwise uses a process-lifetime locale_t that is
allocated on first use, just as ECPG previously did itself. The new
replacement might be more widely useful. Then change the float parsing
and printing code to pass that to _l() functions where appropriate.
Unfortunately the portability of those functions is a bit complicated.
First, many obvious and useful _l() functions are missing from POSIX,
though most standard libraries define some of them anyway. Second,
although the thread-safe save/restore technique can be used to replace
the missing ones, Windows and NetBSD refused to implement standard
uselocale(). They might have a point: "wide scope" uselocale() is hard
to combine with other code and error-prone, especially in library code.
Luckily they have the _l() functions we want so far anyway. So we have
to be prepared for both ways of doing things:
1. In ECPG, use strtod_l() for parsing, and supply a port.h replacement
using uselocale() over a limited scope if missing.
2. Inside our own snprintf.c, use three different approaches to format
floats. For frontend code, call libc's snprintf_l(), or wrap libc's
snprintf() in uselocale() if it's missing. For backend code, snprintf.c
can keep assuming that the global locale's LC_NUMERIC is "C" and call
libc's snprintf() without change, for now.
(It might eventually be possible to call our in-tree Ryū routines to
display floats in snprintf.c, given the C-locale-always remit of our
in-tree snprintf(), but this patch doesn't risk changing anything that
complicated.)

This involves four different implementation strategies:
1. For Windows, we now require _configthreadlocale() to be available
and work (commit f1da075d9a0), and the documentation says that the
object returned by localeconv() is in thread-local memory.
2. For glibc, we translate to nl_langinfo_l() calls, because it
offers the same information that way as an extension, and that API is
thread-safe.
3. For macOS/*BSD, use localeconv_l(), which is thread-safe.
4. For everything else, use uselocale() to set the locale for the
thread, and use a big ugly lock to defend against the returned object
being concurrently clobbered. In practice this currently means only
Solaris.
The new call is used in pg_locale.c, replacing calls to setlocale() and
localeconv().

In these tests, we need to verify not only that the compiler has heard
of these intrinsics, but that lower-level tools cope with them too.
(For example, the assembler must also know the instructions, and on
some platforms there might be library support involved.) The hazard
is that the compiler might optimize away the calls altogether,
allowing the configure check to succeed only to have the build fail
later if lower-level support is missing. The existing code tried to
prevent that by ensuring that the result of the intrinsic is used
for something, but that's really insufficient because we were feeding
constant input to it. So the compiler would be perfectly entitled to
optimize away the calls anyway. Fix by making the inputs into global
variables. (Hypothetically, LTO optimization could still remove the
code --- but that's well past where we'd be likely to hit trouble.)
It is not known that any current compiler would actually optimize
away these calls, and even if that happened it would be unlikely
that any problem would manifest. Our concern for this stems from
largely-bygone days when it was common to install gcc on platforms
with some other native compiler, so that a compiler-vs-library
support discrepancy was more probable. Still, there's little
point in defending against such cases in a way that is visibly
incomplete.
I'm content to fix this in master for now; we can back-patch if
any indication appears that it's a live problem for someone.

Previously the portlock logic, added in 9b4eafcaf41, didn't actually work
properly when the tests were run via meson. 9b4eafcaf41 used the
MESON_BUILD_ROOT environment variable to determine the directory for the port

This commit implements OAUTHBEARER, RFC 7628, and OAuth 2.0 Device
Authorization Grants, RFC 8628. In order to use this there is a
new pg_hba auth method called oauth. When speaking to a OAuth-
enabled server, it looks a bit like this:
$ psql 'host=example.org oauth_issuer=... oauth_client_id=...'
Visit https://oauth.example.org/login and enter the code: FPQ2-M4BG
Device authorization is currently the only supported flow so the
OAuth issuer must support that in order for users to authenticate.
Third-party clients may however extend this and provide their own
flows. The built-in device authorization flow is currently not
supported on Windows.
In order for validation to happen server side a new framework for
plugging in OAuth validation modules is added. As validation is
implementation specific, with no default specified in the standard,
PostgreSQL does not ship with one built-in. Each pg_hba entry can
specify a specific validator or be left blank for the validator
installed as default.
This adds a requirement on libcurl for the client side support,
which is optional to build, but the server side has no additional
build requirements. In order to run the tests, Python is required
as this adds a https server written in Python. Tests are gated
behind PG_TEST_EXTRA as they open ports.

The missing dependency was, e.g., visible when doing

This is a bit more complicated than other related fixes, because until now
libpq's tests depended on 'frontend_code', which includes a dependency on
fe_utils, which in turns on libpq. That in turn required
src/interfaces/libpq/test to be entered from the top-level, not from
libpq/meson.build. Because of that the test definitions in libpq/meson.build
could not declare a dependency on the binaries defined in

Previously tmp_install did not actually depend on the relevant files being

Remove the flex version checks from configure and meson. The cutoff
versions are all so ancient that this is no longer relevant, and what
the actual cutoff should be is a bit fuzzy.
This also removes the ancient behavior that configure would also
accept a "lex" program if it is actuall flex. This aligns the check
with meson in this respect.
For future reference, as of this commit, these are relevant flex
versions:
- The hard required minimum is flex 2.5.34 as of commit b1ef48980dd,
but this has not actually been tested.
- Prior to this, the minimum enforced by configure/meson was flex
2.5.35, which is the oldest present in the buildfarm right now.
- As of commit 6fdd5d95634, the oldest version that will compile
without warnings due to flex-generated code is flex 2.5.36.
- The oldest version that probably still has some practical relevance
is flex 2.5.37, which ships with CentOS/RHEL 7.

The C standard says that sizeof(bool) is implementation-defined, but we
know of no current systems where it is not 1. The last known systems
seem to have been Apple macOS/PowerPC 10.5 and Microsoft Visual C++ 4,
both long defunct.
PostgreSQL has always required sizeof(bool) == 1 for the definition of
bool that it used, but previously it would define its own type if the
system-provided bool had a different size. That was liable to cause
memory layout problems when interacting with system and third-party
libraries on (by now hypothetical) computers with wider _Bool, and now
C23 has introduced a new problem by making bool a built-in datatype
(like C++), so the fallback code doesn't even compile. We could
probably work around that, but then we'd be writing new untested code
for a computer that doesn't exist.
Instead, delete the unreachable and C23-uncompilable fallback code, and
let existing static assertions fail if the system-provided bool is too
wide. If we ever get a problem report from a real system, then it will
be time to figure out what to do about it in a way that also works on
modern compilers.
Note on C++: Previously we avoided including <stdbool.h> or trying to
define a new bool type in headers that might be included by C++ code.
These days we might as well just include <stdbool.h> unconditionally:
it should be visible to C++11 but do nothing, just as in C23. We
already include <stdint.h> without C++ guards in c.h, and that falls
under the same C99-compatibility section of the C++11 standard as
<stdbool.h>, so let's remove the guards here too.

Presently, we check for compiler support for the required
intrinsics both with and without the -msse4.2 compiler flag, and
then depending on the results of those checks, we pick which files
to compile with which flags. This is tedious and complicated, and
it results in unsustainable coding patterns such as separate files
for each portion of code that may need to be built with different
compiler flags.
This commit makes use of the newly-added support for
__attribute__((target(...))) in the SSE4.2 CRC-32C code. This
simplifies both the configure-time checks and the build scripts,
and it allows us to place the functions that use the intrinsics in
files that we otherwise do not want to build with special CPU
instructions (although this commit refrains from doing so). This
is also preparatory work for a proposed follow-up commit that will
further optimize the CRC-32C code with AVX-512 instructions.
While at it, this commit modifies meson's checks for SSE4.2 CRC
support to be the same as autoconf's. meson was choosing whether
to use a runtime check based purely on whether -msse4.2 is
required, while autoconf has long checked for the __SSE4_2__
preprocessor symbol to decide. meson's previous approach seems to
work just fine, but this change avoids needing to build multiple
test programs and to keep track of whether to actually use
pg_attribute_target().
Ideally we'd use __attribute__((target(...))) for ARMv8 CRC
support, too, but there's little point in doing so because until
clang 16, using the ARM intrinsics still requires special compiler
flags. Perhaps we can re-evaluate this decision after some time
has passed.

There is still a reference to <stdbool.h> in an earlier test to see if
we need -std=c99 to get C99 features, like autoconf 2.69's
AC_PROG_CC_C99. (Therefore the test remove by this commit was
tautological since day one: you'd have copped "C compiler does not

Back-patch to 16, where meson begins.
On ARM platforms where the baseline CPU target lacks CRC instructions,
we need to supply a -march flag to persuade the compiler to compile
such instructions. It turns out that our existing choice of
"-march=armv8-a+crc" has not worked for some time, because recent gcc
will interpret that as selecting software floating point, and then
will spit up if the platform requires hard-float ABI, as most do
nowadays. The end result was to silently fall back to software CRC,
which isn't very desirable since in practice almost all currently
produced ARM chips do have hardware CRC.
We can fix this by using "-march=armv8-a+crc+simd" to enable the
correct ABI choice. (This has no impact on the code actually
generated, since neither of the files we compile with this flag
does any floating-point stuff, let alone SIMD.) Keep the test for
"-march=armv8-a+crc" since that's required for soft-float ABI,
but try that second since most platforms we're likely to build on
use hard-float.
Since this isn't working as-intended on the last several years'
worth of gcc releases, back-patch to all supported branches.

Previously we checked "for <stdbool.h> that conforms to C99" using
autoconf's AC_HEADER_STDBOOL macro. We've required C99 since PostgreSQL
12, so the test was redundant, and under C23 it was broken: autoconf
2.69's implementation doesn't understand C23's new empty header (the
macros it's looking for went away, replaced by language keywords).
Later autoconf versions fixed that, but let's just remove the
anachronistic test.
HAVE_STDBOOL_H and HAVE__BOOL will no longer be defined, but they
weren't directly tested in core or likely extensions (except in 11, see
below). PG_USE_STDBOOL (or USE_STDBOOL in 11 and 12) is still defined
when sizeof(bool) is 1, which should be true on all modern systems.
Otherwise we define our own bool type and values of size 1, which would
fail to compile under C23 as revealed by the broken test. (We'll
probably clean that dead code up in master, but here we want a minimal
back-patchable change.)
This came to our attention when GCC 15 recently started using using C23
by default and failed to compile the replacement code, as reported by
Sam James and build farm animal alligator.
Back-patch to all supported releases, and then two older versions that
also know about <stdbool.h>, per the recently-out-of-support policy[1].
12 requires C99 so it's much like the supported releases, but 11 only
assumes C89 so it now uses AC_CHECK_HEADERS instead of the overly picky
AC_HEADER_STDBOOL. (I could find no discussion of which historical
systems had <stdbool.h> but failed the conformance test; if they ever
existed, they surely aren't relevant to that policy's goals.)

Previously we probed for CRC32 instructions by testing if they caused
SIGILL. Some have expressed doubts about that technique, the Linux
documentation advises not to use it, and it's not exactly beautiful.
Now that more operating systems expose CPU features to userspace via the
ELF loader in approximately the same way, let's use that instead.
This is expected to work on Linux, FreeBSD and recent OpenBSD.
OpenBSD/ARM has not been tested and is not present in our build farm,
but the API matches FreeBSD.
On macOS, compilers use a more recent baseline ISA so the runtime test
mechanism isn't reached. (A similar situation is expected for
Windows/ARM when that port lands.)
On NetBSD, runtime feature probing is lost for armv8-a builds. It looks
potentially doable with sysctl following the example of the cpuctl

"meson test" used to ignore the PG_TEST_EXTRA environment variable,
which meant that in order to run additional tests, you had to run
"meson setup -DPG_TEST_EXTRA=...". That's somewhat expensive, and not
consistent with autoconf builds. Allow PG_TEST_EXTRA environment
variable to override the setup-time option at run time, so that you
can do "PG_TEST_EXTRA=... meson test".
To implement this, the configuration time value is passed as an extra
"--pg-test-extra" argument to testwrap instead of adding it to the
test environment. If the environment variable is set at the time of
running test, testwrap uses the value from the environment variable
and ignores the --pg-test-extra option.
Now that "meson test" obeys the environment variable, we can remove it
from the "meson setup" steps in the CI script. It will now be picked
up from the environment variable like with "make check".

The current method of detecting perl build flags breaks if the path to

instead of getting a list of ldflags and ccdlflags and then trying to

Use gmtime_r() and localtime_r() instead of gmtime() and localtime(),
for thread-safety.
There are a few affected calls in libpq and ecpg's libpgtypes, which
are probably effectively bugs, because those libraries already claim
to be thread-safe.
There is one affected call in the backend. Most of the backend
otherwise uses the custom functions pg_gmtime() and pg_localtime(),
which are implemented differently.
While we're here, change the call in the backend to gmtime*() instead
of localtime*(), since for that use time zone behavior is irrelevant,
and this side-steps any questions about when time zones are
initialized by localtime_r() vs localtime().
Portability: gmtime_r() and localtime_r() are in POSIX but are not
available on Windows. Windows has functions gmtime_s() and
localtime_s() that can fulfill the same purpose, so we add some small
wrappers around them. (Note that these *_s() functions are also
different from the *_s() functions in the bounds-checking extension of
C11. We are not using those here.)
On MinGW, you can get the POSIX-style *_r() functions by defining
_POSIX_C_SOURCE appropriately before including <time.h>. This leads
to a conflict at least in plpython because apparently _POSIX_C_SOURCE
gets defined in some header there, and then our replacement
definitions conflict with the system definitions. To avoid that sort
of thing, we now always define _POSIX_C_SOURCE on MinGW and use the
POSIX-style functions here.

We don't need configure probes for HAVE_LANGINFO_H (it is implied by
!WIN32), and we don't need to consider systems that have it but don't
define CODESET (that was for OpenBSD in commit 81cca218, but it has now
had it for 19 years).

This warning flag detects global variables not declared in header
files. This is similar to what -Wmissing-prototypes does for
functions. (More correctly, it is similar to what
-Wmissing-declarations does for functions, but -Wmissing-prototypes is
a superset of that in C.)
This flag is new in GCC 14. Clang has supported it for a while.
Several recent commits have cleaned up warnings triggered by this, so
it should now be clean.

Modern versions of all relevant architectures and tool chains have
atomics support. Since edadeb07, there is no remaining reason to carry
code that simulates atomic flags and uint32 imperfectly with spinlocks.
64 bit atomics are still emulated with spinlocks, if needed, for now.
Any modern compiler capable of implementing C11 <stdatomic.h> must have
the underlying operations we need, though we don't require C11 yet. We
detect certain compilers and architectures, so hypothetical new systems
might need adjustments here.

A later change will require atomic support, so it wouldn't make sense
for a hypothetical new system not to be able to implement spinlocks.

To build with -Dreadline=enabled one can use either readline or
libedit. The -Dlibedit_preferred flag is supposed to control the order
of names to lookup. This works fine when either both libraries are
present or -Dreadline is set to auto. However, explicitly enabling
readline with only libedit present, but not setting libedit_preferred,
or alternatively enabling readline with only readline present, but
setting libedit_preferred, too, are both broken. This is because
cc.find_library will throw an error for a not found dependency as soon
as the first required dependency is checked, thus it's impossible to
fallback to the alternative.
Here we only check the second of the two dependencies for
requiredness, thus we only fail when none of the two can be found.

Backpatch: 16-, where meson support was added
Passing an absolute bindir/libdir will install the binaries and
libraries to <build>/tmp_install/<bindir> and
<build>/tmp_install/<libdir> respectively.
This path is correctly passed to the regression test suite via
configure/make, but not via meson, yet. This is because the "/"
operator in the following expression throws away the whole left side
when the right side is an absolute path:
test_install_location / get_option('libdir')
This was already correctly handled for dir_prefix, which is likely
absolute as well. This patch handles both bindir and libdir in the
same way - prefixing absolute paths with the tmp_install path
correctly.

For example, this is the case on NixOS / nixpkgs, which failed to find

The upstream name for the ossp-uuid package / pkg-config file is
"uuid". Many distributions change this to be "ossp-uuid" to not
conflict with e2fsprogs.
This lookup fails on distributions which don't change this name, for
example NixOS / nixpkgs. Both "ossp-uuid" and "uuid" are also checked
in configure.ac.

OpenSSL supports two types of session tickets for TLSv1.3, stateless
and stateful. The option we've used only turns off stateless tickets
leaving stateful tickets active. Use the new API introduced in 1.1.1

Backpatch-through: v12
Particularly on windows it's useful to look up dependencies via cmake, instead
of pkg-config. Meson supports doing so. Unfortunately the dependency names
used by various projects often differs between their pkg-config and cmake
files.
This would look a lot neater if we could rely on meson >= 0.60.0...
