Previously we used pg_atomic_write_64_impl inside
pg_atomic_init_u64. That works correctly, but on platforms without
64bit single copy atomicity it could trigger spurious valgrind errors
about uninitialized memory, because we use compare_and_swap for atomic
writes on such platforms.
I previously suppressed one instance of this problem (6c878edc1d),
but as Tom reports that wasn't enough. As the atomic variable cannot
yet be concurrently accessible during initialization, it seems better
to have pg_atomic_init_64_impl set the value directly.
Change pg_atomic_init_u32_impl for symmetry.

Backpatch: 9.5-
Commit 7be5d8df1f surfaced the logic

The buildfarm always customizes PROVE_FLAGS, so the warning did not
appear there. Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).
When installing binaries and libraries using the MSVC installation
routines, the operation gets done after moving to the root folder, whose
location is detected by checking if "configure" exists two times in a
row. So, calling the installation script from src/tools/msvc/ with an
extra "configure" file four levels up the root path of the code tree
causes the execution to go further up, leading to a failure in finding
the builds. This commit fixes the issue by moving to the root folder of
the code tree only once, when necessary.

Sticking this comment at the end of the last line was a bad idea: it's
not particularly readable, and it tempts pgindent to mess with line
breaks within the comment, which in turn reveals that win32tzlist.pl's
clean_displayname() does the wrong thing to clean up such line breaks.
While that's not hard to fix, there's basically no excuse for this
arrangement to begin with, especially since it makes the table layout
needlessly vary across back branches with different pgindent rules.
Let's just put the comment inside the braces, instead.
This commit just moves and reformats the comments, and updates
win32tzlist.pl to match; there's no actual data change.
Per odd-looking results from Juan José Santamaría Flecha.
Back-patch, since the point is to make win32_tzmap[] look the
same in all supported branches again.

Apparently in some language versions of Visual Studio nmake outputs some
material after the version number and before the end of the line. This
has been seen in Chinese versions. Therefore, we no longer demand that
the version string comes at the end of a line.

Backpatch to all live branches.
First, make sure that the .exe name is quoted when trying to get the
version number. Also, don't quote the lib name for using in the project
files if it's already been quoted. This second change applies to all
libraries, not just OpenSSL.
This has clearly been broken forever, so backpatch to all live branches.
This commit improves subject in two ways:
* It removes ugliness of 02f90879e7, which stores distance values and null
flags in two separate arrays after GISTSearchItem struct. Instead we pack
both distance value and null flag in IndexOrderByDistance struct. Alignment
overhead should be negligible, because we typically deal with at most few
"col op const" expressions in ORDER BY clause.
* It fixes handling of "col op NULL" expression in KNN-SP-GiST. Now, these
expression are not passed to support functions, which can't deal with them.
Instead, NULL result is implicitly assumed. It future we may decide to
teach support functions to deal with NULL arguments, but current solution is
bugfix suitable for backpatch.

Depending on the system used, t/*.pl may not be expanded into a list of
tests which can be consumed by prove when attempting to run TAP tests on
a given path. Fix that by using glob() directly in the script, to make

be an issue with MSVC as the list was properly expanded, but it is on

Up to now, the MSVC build scripts are able to support only one fixed
version of OpenSSL, and they lacked logic to detect the version of
OpenSSL a given compilation of Postgres is linking to (currently 1.0.2,
the latest LTS of upstream which will be EOL'd at the end of 2019).
This commit adds more logic to detect the version of OpenSSL used by a
build and makes use of it to add support for compilation with OpenSSL
1.1.0 which requires a new set of compilation flags to work properly.
The supported OpenSSL installers have changed their library layer with
various library renames with the upgrade to 1.1.0, making the logic a
bit more complicated. The scripts are now able to adapt to the new
world order.

postmaster startup scrutinizes any shared memory segment recorded in
postmaster.pid, exiting if that segment matches the current data
directory and has an attached process. When the postmaster.pid file was
missing, a starting postmaster used weaker checks. Change to use the
same checks in both scenarios. This increases the chance of a startup
failure, in lieu of data corruption, if the DBA does "kill -9 `head -n1

will no longer stop if shmat() of an old segment fails with EACCES. A
postmaster will no longer recycle segments pertaining to other data
directories. That's good for production, but it's bad for integration
tests that crash a postmaster and immediately delete its data directory.
Such a test now leaks a segment indefinitely. No "make check-world"
test does that. win32_shmem.c already avoided all these problems. In
9.6 and later, enhance PostgresNode to facilitate testing. Back-patch

Commit f83419b739 failed to notice that mkvcbuild.pl and build.pl use
different searchpath and do-file logic, breaking the latter, so it is
adjusted to use the same logic as mkvcbuild.pl.
Contrary to the comment on 772d4b76, only paths starting with "./" or
"../" are considered relative to the current working directory by perl's
"do" function. So this patch converts all the relevant cases to use "./"
paths. This only affects MSVC.

wcsrtombs (called through wchar2char from common functions like lower,
upper, etc.) uses various optimizations that may look like access to
uninitialized data, triggering valgrind reports.
For example AVX2 instructions load data in 256-bit chunks, and gconv
does something similar with 32-bit chunks. This is faster than accessing
the bytes one by one, and the uninitialized part of the buffer is not
actually used. So suppress the bogus reports.
The exact stack depends on possible optimizations - it might be AVX, SSE
(as in the report by Aleksander Alekseev) or something else. Hence the
last frame is wildcarded, to deal with this.
Backpatch all the way back to 9.4.

Modern versions of perl no longer include the current directory in the

directory, we get around the problem by adding the directory where the
script lives.
Problem noted by Victor Wagner.
Solution adapted from buildfarm client code.

Neither plperl nor plpython installed sufficient header files to
permit transform modules to be built out-of-tree using PGXS. Fix that
by installing all plperl and plpython header files (other than those
with special purposes such as generated data tables), and also install
plpython's special .mk file for mangling regression tests.
(This commit does not fix the windows install, which does not
currently install _any_ plperl or plpython headers.)
Also fix the existing transform modules for hstore and ltree so that
their cross-module #include directives work as anticipated by commit
df163230b9 et seq. This allows them to serve as working examples of
how to reference other modules when doing separate out-of-tree builds.

The following existing modules now install headers: contrib/cube,
contrib/hstore, contrib/isn, contrib/ltree, contrib/seg.

Now that the documentation sources are in XML rather than SGML, some of
the documentation about the editor, or more specifically Emacs, setup
needs updating. The updated instructions recommend using nxml-mode,
which works mostly out of the box, with some small tweaks in
emacs.samples and .dir-locals.el.
Also remove some obsolete stuff in .dir-locals.el. I did, however,
leave the sgml-mode settings in there so that someone using Emacs
without emacs.samples gets those settings when editing a *.sgml file.
The .git directory might contain perl files, as hooks, for example.
Since we have no control over these they should be excluded from things
like our perlcritic checks.
Per offline report from Mike Blackwell.
Also add a function that centralizes the logic for locating all our perl
files and use it in pgperlcritic and pgperltidy as well as the new
pgperlcheck.
This patch does two things. First, it silences a number of compile-time
warnings in the msvc tools files, mainly those due to the fact that in
some cases we have more than one package per file. Second it supplies a
dummy Perl library with just enough of the Windows API referred to in
our code to let it run these checks cleanly, even on Unix machines where
the code is never supposed to run. The dummy library should only be used
for that purpose, as its README notes.
Commit 3a7cc727c was a little over eager about adding an explicit return
to this function, whose value is checked in most call sites. This change
reverses that and returns the expected value explicitly. It also adds a
check to the one call site lacking one.
This complies with the perlcritic policy
Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn, which is a severity 4 policy. Since we
only currently check at severity level 5, the policy is raised to that
level until we move to level 4 or lower, so that any new infringements
will be caught.
A small cosmetic piece of tidying of the pgperlcritic script is
included.

Now that the Working with git wiki page no longer suggests producing
context diffs, we should preserve the information on how to use
git-external-diff for those people who want to view context format
diffs. The most obvious place is in the script itself, so that's what's
done here.
Commit bad51a49a tried to use a shortcut with just one stamp file
recording the actions of generating the pg_*_d.h headers and copying
them to the src/include/catalog/ directory. That doesn't work in all
scenarios though, so we must use two stamp files like the Makefiles do.
