On Unix-ish platforms, EWOULDBLOCK may be the same as EAGAIN, which is *not* a success return, at least not on Linux. We need to treat it as a failure to avoid giving a misleading error message. Per the Single Unix Spec, only EINPROGRESS and EINTR returns indicate that the connection attempt is in progress. On Windows, on the other hand, EWOULDBLOCK (WSAEWOULDBLOCK) is the expected case. We must accept EINPROGRESS as well because Cygwin will return that, and it doesn't seem worth distinguishing Cygwin from native Windows here. It's not very clear whether EINTR can occur on Windows, but let's leave that part of the logic alone in the absence of concrete trouble reports. Also, remove the test for errno == 0, effectively reverting commit da9501bddb42222dc33c031b1db6ce2133bcee7b, which AFAICS was just a thinko; or at best it might have been a workaround for a platform-specific bug, which we can hope is gone now thirteen years later. In any case, since libpq makes no effort to reset errno to zero before calling connect(), it seems unlikely that that test has ever reliably done anything useful. Andres Freund and Tom Lane

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
