Noah Misch 29d0670519 start-scripts: switch to $PGUSER before opening $PGLOG.
By default, $PGUSER has permission to unlink $PGLOG.  If $PGUSER
replaces $PGLOG with a symbolic link, the server will corrupt the
link-targeted file by appending log messages.  Since these scripts open
$PGLOG as root, the attack works regardless of target file ownership.

"make install" does not install these scripts anywhere.  Users having
manually installed them in the past should repeat that process to
acquire this fix.  Most script users have $PGLOG writable to root only,
located in $PGDATA.  Just before updating one of these scripts, such
users should rename $PGLOG to $PGLOG.old.  The script will then recreate
$PGLOG with proper ownership.

# description: PostgreSQL RDBMS
# This is an example of a start/stop script for SysV-style init, such
# as is used on Linux systems. You should edit some of the variables
# and maybe the 'echo' commands.
#
# Place this file at /etc/init.d/postgresql (or
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql) and make symlinks to
# /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K02postgresql
# /etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K02postgresql
# /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/K02postgresql
# /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S98postgresql
# /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S98postgresql
# /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S98postgresql
# Or, if you have chkconfig, simply:
# chkconfig --add postgresql
#
# Proper init scripts on Linux systems normally require setting lock
# and pid files under /var/run as well as reacting to network
# settings, so you should treat this with care.

# It's often a good idea to protect the postmaster from being killed by the
# OOM killer (which will tend to preferentially kill the postmaster because
# of the way it accounts for shared memory). Setting the OOM_SCORE_ADJ value
# to -1000 will disable OOM kill altogether. If you enable this, you probably
# want to compile PostgreSQL with "-DLINUX_OOM_SCORE_ADJ=0", so that
# individual backends can still be killed by the OOM killer.
#OOM_SCORE_ADJ=-1000
# Older Linux kernels may not have /proc/self/oom_score_adj, but instead
# /proc/self/oom_adj, which works similarly except the disable value is -17.
# For such a system, enable this and compile with "-DLINUX_OOM_ADJ=0".
