Daniel Gustafsson 118ec331bf Disable all TLS session tickets
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
to disable all types of tickets.

Backpatch to all supported versions.

This is a back-patch of commit 101c37cd into REL_14_STABLE and
REL_15_STABLE.  Those branches had commit de8feb1f3, which turned on
-Wcast-function-type, but did not disable -Wcast-function-type-strict.
This silences warnings about function pointer types without prototypes
based on new C23 rules, that we want to suppress for now.

Tom Lane 5dd30bb54b Use BIO_{get,set}_app_data instead of BIO_{get,set}_data.
We should have done it this way all along, but we accidentally got
away with using the wrong BIO field up until OpenSSL 3.2.  There,
the library's BIO routines that we rely on use the "data" field
for their own purposes, and our conflicting use causes assorted
weird behaviors up to and including core dumps when SSL connections
are attempted.  Switch to using the approved field for the purpose,
i.e. app_data.

While at it, remove our configure probes for BIO_get_data as well
as the fallback implementation.  BIO_{get,set}_app_data have been
there since long before any OpenSSL version that we still support,
even in the back branches.

Also, update src/test/ssl/t/001_ssltests.pl to allow for a minor
change in an error message spelling that evidently came in with 3.2.

Michael Paquier 5c32549460 Fix detection of unseekable files for fseek() and ftello() with MSVC
Calling fseek() or ftello() on a handle to a non-seeking device such as
a pipe or a communications device is not supported.  Unfortunately,
MSVC's flavor of these routines, _fseeki64() and _ftelli64(), do not
return an error when given a pipe as handle.  Some of the logic of
pg_dump and restore relies on these routines to check if a handle is
seekable, causing failures when passing the contents of pg_dump to
pg_restore through a pipe, for example.

This commit introduces wrappers for fseeko() and ftello() on MSVC so as
any callers are able to properly detect the cases of non-seekable
handles.  This relies mainly on GetFileType(), sharing a bit of code
with the MSVC port for fstat().  The code in charge of getting a file
type is refactored into a new file called win32common.c, shared by
win32stat.c and the new win32fseek.c.  It includes the MSVC ports for
fseeko() and ftello().

Like 765f5df, this is backpatched down to 14, where the fstat()
implementation for MSVC is able to understand about files larger than
4GB in size.  Using a TAP test for that is proving to be tricky as
IPC::Run handles the pipes by itself, still I have been able to check
the fix manually.

Michael Paquier 5fd61055ea Fix handling of SCRAM-SHA-256's channel binding with RSA-PSS certificates
OpenSSL 1.1.1 and newer versions have added support for RSA-PSS
certificates, which requires the use of a specific routine in OpenSSL to
determine which hash function to use when compiling it when using
channel binding in SCRAM-SHA-256.  X509_get_signature_nid(), that is the
original routine the channel binding code has relied on, is not able to
determine which hash algorithm to use for such certificates.  However,
X509_get_signature_info(), new to OpenSSL 1.1.1, is able to do it.  This
commit switches the channel binding logic to rely on
X509_get_signature_info() over X509_get_signature_nid(), which would be
the choice when building with 1.1.1 or newer.

The error could have been triggered on the client or the server, hence
libpq and the backend need to have their related code paths patched.
Note that attempting to load an RSA-PSS certificate with OpenSSL 1.1.0
or older leads to a failure due to an unsupported algorithm.

The discovery of relying on X509_get_signature_info() comes from Jacob,
the tests have been written by Heikki (with few tweaks from me), while I
have bundled the whole together while adding the bits needed for MSVC
and meson.

This issue exists since channel binding exists, so backpatch all the way
down.  Some tests are added in 15~, triggered if compiling with OpenSSL
1.1.1 or newer, where the certificate and key files can easily be
generated for RSA-PSS.

Tom Lane f9a56e7263 Disable -Wdeprecated-non-prototype in the back branches.
There doesn't seem to be any good ABI-preserving way to silence
clang 15's -Wdeprecated-non-prototype warnings about our tree-walk
APIs.  While we've fixed it properly in HEAD, the only way to not
see hundreds of these in the back branches is to disable the
warnings.  We're not going to do anything about them, so we might
as well disable them.

I noticed that we also get some of these warnings about fmgr.c's
support for V0 function call convention, in branches before v10
where we removed that.  That's another area we aren't going to
change, so turning off the warning seems fine for that too.

Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into
out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings
but changes no behavior.  Hence, back-patch all the way to 9.2.

Tom Lane aff45c879e configure: don't probe for libldap_r if libldap is 2.5 or newer.
In OpenLDAP 2.5 and later, libldap itself is always thread-safe and
there's never a libldap_r.  Our existing coding dealt with that
by assuming it wouldn't find libldap_r if libldap is thread-safe.
But that rule fails to cope if there are multiple OpenLDAP versions
visible, as is likely to be the case on macOS in particular.  We'd
end up using shiny new libldap in the backend and a hoary libldap_r
in libpq.

Instead, once we've found libldap, check if it's >= 2.5 (by
probing for a function introduced then) and don't bother looking
for libldap_r if so.  While one can imagine library setups that
this'd still give the wrong answer for, they seem unlikely to
occur in practice.

Peter Eisentraut c1932e5428 libpq: Allow IP address SANs in server certificates
The current implementation supports exactly one IP address in a server
certificate's Common Name, which is brittle (the strings must match
exactly).  This patch adds support for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in a
server's Subject Alternative Names.

Per discussion on-list:

- If the client's expected host is an IP address, we allow fallback to
  the Subject Common Name if an iPAddress SAN is not present, even if
  a dNSName is present.  This matches the behavior of NSS, in
  violation of the relevant RFCs.

- We also, counter-intuitively, match IP addresses embedded in dNSName
  SANs.  From inspection this appears to have been the behavior since
  the SAN matching feature was introduced in acd08d76.

- Unlike NSS, we don't map IPv4 to IPv6 addresses, or vice-versa.

Tom Lane de447bb8e6 Suppress warning about stack_base_ptr with late-model GCC.
GCC 12 complains that set_stack_base is storing the address of
a local variable in a long-lived pointer.  This is an entirely
reasonable warning (indeed, it just helped us find a bug);
but that behavior is intentional here.  We can work around it
by using __builtin_frame_address(0) instead of a specific local
variable; that produces an address a dozen or so bytes different,
in my testing, but we don't care about such a small difference.
Maybe someday a compiler lacking that function will start to issue
a similar warning, but we'll worry about that when it happens.

Michael Paquier 1d084fba1b Add ./configure check for "lz4" command
Some environments may compile with --with-lz4 while the command "lz4"
goes missing, causing two failures in the TAP tests of pg_verifybackup
(008_untar.pl and 010_client_untar.pl) as the code assumed that the
command always existed with a hardcoded value in src/Makefile.global.
Rather than this method, this adds a ./configure check based on
PGAC_PATH_PROGS() to find automatically the command and get an absolute
path to it.

Both tests need to be adjusted for the case where the command does not
exist, actually, as Makefile.global would set now LZ4 to an empty value
in this case.  The TAP tests of pg_receivewal already do that.

Per report from buildfarm member copperhead, as an effect of dab2984.
The origin of the failure is actually babbbb5 that did not centralize
the check for the existence of a "lz4" command at ./configure to shave a
few cycles.  Note that one just needs to tweak an environment to move
"lz4" out of the way to reproduce the problem, which is what I did to
test this change.

RtlGetLastNtStatus(), which is dynamically loaded from ntdll.  A new
file win32ntdll.c centralizes lookup of NT functions, in case we decide
to add more in the future.

2.  Remove non-working code that was trying to do something similar for
stat(), and just reuse the open() wrapper code.  As a side effect,
stat() also gains resilience against "sharing violation" errors.

3.  Since stat() is used very early in process startup, remove the
requirement that the Win32 signal event has been created before
pgwin32_open_handle() is reached.  Instead, teach pg_usleep() to fall
back to a non-interruptible sleep if reached before the signal event is
available.

This could be back-patched, but for now it's in master only.  The
problem has apparently been with us for a long time and generated only a
few complaints.  Proposed patches trigger it more often, which led to

xoroshiro128** is a few percent slower than the drand48 family,
but it can produce full-width 64-bit random values not only 48-bit,
and it should be much more trustworthy.  It's likely to be noticeably
faster than the platform's random(), depending on which platform you

are the functions it replaces.

Tom Lane 276517a964 Use appropriate -Wno-warning switches when compiling bitcode.
We use "clang" to compile bitcode files for LLVM inlining.  That might
be different from the build's main C compiler, so it needs its own set
of compiler flags.  To simplify configure, we don't bother adding any
-W switches to that flag set; there's little need since the main build
will show us any warnings.  However, if we don't want to see unwanted
warnings, we still have to add any -Wno-warning switches we'd normally
use with clang.

This escaped notice before commit 9ff47ea41, which tried to add
-Wno-compound-token-split-by-macro; buildfarm animals using mismatched
CC and CLANG still showed those warnings.  I'm not sure why we never
saw any effects from the lack of -Wno-unused-command-line-argument

support -Wno-format-truncation or -Wno-stringop-truncation, although
in the interests of future-proofing and consistency I included tests

before this is spread across the buildfarm, and we have noticed that
some animals would be useful with an extra -Werror to help with the
detection of incorrect placeholders (see b0cf544), dangomushi being
one.

Peter Eisentraut ee3a1a5b63 Remove check for accept() argument types
This check was used to accommodate a staggering variety in particular
in the type of the third argument of accept().  This is no longer of
concern on currently supported systems.  We can just use socklen_t in
the code and put in a simple check that substitutes int for socklen_t
if it's missing, to cover the few stragglers.

Tom Lane 4a235efdda Make configure check for minimum required version of IPC::Run.
Per the discussion around 3eb1f4d09, let's have configure verify that
the available IPC::Run version is at least 0.79, the agreed-on minimum.
It seems unlikely that this could bite anybody anymore, but it's useful
as documentation.  (Based on that, there's little need to back-patch.)

For consistency, also supply a minimum version for the other Perl
module we have an explicit check for, Time::HiRes.  I used the
version that ships with Perl 5.8.3.

Tom Lane 76fa3db336 Remove configure-time thread safety checking (thread_test.c).
This testing was useful when it was written, nigh twenty years ago,
but it seems fairly pointless for any platform built in the last
dozen or more years.  (Compare also the comments at 8a2121185.)
Also we now have reports that the test program itself fails under
ThreadSanitizer.  Rather than invest effort in fixing it, let's
just drop it, and assume that the few people who still care
already know they need to use --disable-thread-safety.

Back-patch into v14, for consistency with 8a2121185.

Thomas Munro 5865e064ab Portability fixes for sigwait.
Build farm animals running ancient HPUX and Solaris have a non-standard
sigwait() from draft versions of POSIX, so they didn't like commit
7c09d279.  To avoid the problem in general, only try to use sigwait() if
it's declared by <signal.h> and matches the expected declaration.  To
select the modern declaration on Solaris (even in non-threaded
programs), move -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS into the right place to
affect all translation units.

Also fix the error checking.  Modern sigwait() doesn't set errno.

Thanks to Tom Lane for help with this.

Tom Lane f014b1b9bb Probe for preadv/pwritev in a more macOS-friendly way.
Apple's mechanism for dealing with functions that are available
in only some OS versions confuses AC_CHECK_FUNCS, and therefore
AC_REPLACE_FUNCS.  We can use AC_CHECK_DECLS instead, so long as
we enable -Werror=unguarded-availability-new.  This allows people
compiling for macOS to control whether or not preadv/pwritev are
used by setting MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET, rather than supplying
a back-rev SDK.  (Of course, the latter still works, too.)

Tom Lane 9f6be2e79f Fix busted test for ldap_initialize.
Sigh ... I was expecting AC_CHECK_LIB to do something it didn't,
namely update LIBS.  This led to not finding ldap_initialize.
Fix by moving the probe for ldap_initialize.  In some sense this
is more correct anyway, since (at least for now) we care about
whether ldap_initialize exists in libldap not libldap_r.

Per buildfarm member elver and local testing.

Tom Lane 53c38a086a Un-break AIX build, take 2.
I incorrectly diagnosed the reason why hoverfly is unhappy.
Looking closer, it appears that it fails to link libldap
unless libssl is also present; so the problem was my
idea of clearing LIBS before making the check.  Revert
to essentially the original coding, except that instead
of failing when libldap_r isn't there, use libldap.
