Billy has kindly looked at the code and points out that it is slightly
stricter than the original implementation and if it encounters an invalid
bytea such as '\12C' it drops the unescape '\' and outputs '12C'.

The code is licensed by the author under a BSD license.

I've performed limited testing of the function by putting JPEGs into
PostgreSQL, extracting them using them using the new function and diffing
against the original files.

The new function is significantly faster on my machine with the JPEGs being
decoded in less than a second. I attach a modified libpq example program that
I used for my testing.

Bruce Momjian [Wed, 11 Jun 2003 22:37:46 +0000 (22:37 +0000)]
This patch extracts page buffer pooling and the simple
least-recently-used strategy from clog.c into slru.c.  It doesn't
change any visible behaviour and passes all regression tests plus a
TruncateCLOG test done manually.

Apart from refactoring I made a little change to SlruRecentlyUsed,
formerly ClogRecentlyUsed:  It now skips incrementing lru_counts, if
slotno is already the LRU slot, thus saving a few CPU cycles.  To make
this work, lru_counts are initialised to 1 in SimpleLruInit.

SimpleLru will be used by pg_subtrans (part of the nested transactions
project), so the main purpose of this patch is to avoid future code
duplication.

Bruce Momjian [Wed, 11 Jun 2003 15:05:50 +0000 (15:05 +0000)]
Well, the discussion about SSL a bit back perked my interest and I did
some reading on the subject.

1) PostgreSQL uses ephemeral keying, for its connections (good thing)

2) PostgreSQL doesn't set the cipher list that it allows (bad thing,
   fixed)

3) PostgreSQL's renegotiation code wasn't text book correct (could be
   bad, fixed)

4) The rate of renegotiating was insanely low (as Tom pointed out, set
   to a more reasonable level)

I haven't checked around much to see if there are any other SSL bits
that need some review, but I'm doing some OpenSSL work right now
and'll send patches for improvements along the way (if I find them).
At the very least, the changes in this patch will make security folks
happier for sure.  The constant renegotiation of sessions was likely a
boon to systems that had bad entropy gathering means (read: Slowaris
/dev/rand|/dev/urand != ANDIrand).  The new limit for renegotiations
is 512MB which should be much more reasonable.
