Avoiding concurrent calls to bindtextdomain()

От

Дата:
According to the discussion in [1], it's not as safe as we supposed
to allow different threads to call bindtextdomain() concurrently.
Here is a patchset to prevent that by acquiring a mutex around
the libpq and ecpglib calls that are at risk.

In libpq, this would've required yet a third copy of the
Windows-specific ugliness in default_threadlock() and pgtls_init().
I didn't particularly want to do that, so I stole some ideas
from ecpglib to create a more POSIX-compliant emulation of
pthread_mutex_lock().  0001 attached is the refactoring needed
to make that happen, and then 0002 is the actual bug fix.

0001 also gets rid of the possibility that pthread_mutex_init/
pthread_mutex_lock could fail due to malloc failure.  This seems
important since default_threadlock() assumes that pthread_mutex_lock
cannot fail in practice.  I observe that ecpglib also assumes that,
although it's using CreateMutex() which has documented failure
conditions.  So I wonder if we ought to copy this implementation
back into ecpglib; but I've not done that here.

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] Clean up unnecessarily Windows-dependent code in
 libpq.

Fix pthread-win32.h and pthread-win32.c to provide a more complete
emulation of POSIX pthread mutexes: define PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER
and make sure that pthread_mutex_lock() can operate on a mutex
object that's been initialized that way.  Then we don't need the
duplicative platform-specific logic in default_threadlock() and
pgtls_init(), which we'd otherwise need yet a third copy of for
an upcoming bug fix.

Also, since default_threadlock() supposes that pthread_mutex_lock()
cannot fail, try to ensure that that's actually true, by getting
rid of the malloc call that was formerly involved in initializing
an emulated mutex.  We can define an extra state for the spinlock
field instead.

The idea of making pthread_mutex_t into a struct with a spinlock-like
field is borrowed from ecpg's similar emulation.  Perhaps we should
adopt this implementation there too, since ecpg also contains some
presently-bogus assumptions that mutex locking can't fail.

Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] Avoid concurrent calls to bindtextdomain().

We previously supposed that it was okay for different threads to
call bindtextdomain() concurrently (cf. commit 1f655fdc3).
It now emerges that there's at least one gettext implementation
in which that triggers an abort() crash, so let's stop doing that.
Add mutexes guarding libpq's and ecpglib's calls, which are the
only ones that need worry about multithreaded callers.

Note: in libpq, we could perhaps have piggybacked on
default_threadlock() to avoid defining a new mutex variable.
I judge that not terribly safe though, since libpq_gettext could
be called from code that is holding the default mutex.  If that
were the first such call in the process, it'd fail.  An extra
mutex is cheap insurance against unforeseen interactions.

Per bug #18312 from Christian Maurer.  Back-patch to all
supported versions.

The cfbot seemed happy with v1, so here's a v2 that does copy that
code back into ecpglib.  (I kind of wonder why this code exists in
libpq + ecpglib at all, rather than in src/port/; but that seems
like a refactoring exercise for another day.)

I double-checked that all the pthread_mutex_t variables in libpq
and ecpglib are static, so the change in that struct should not
pose an ABI hazard for back-patching.

Barring objections, I plan to push this pretty soon.

            regards, tom lane

Also, replace the similar code in ecpglib/misc.c with this version.
While ecpglib's version had at least a POSIX-compliant API, it
likewise had the potential of failing during mutex init (but here,
because of CreateMutex failure rather than malloc failure).  Since
all of misc.c's callers ignore failures, it seems like a wise idea
to avoid failures here too.

A further improvement in this area could be to unify libpq's and
ecpglib's implementations into a src/port/pthread-win32.c file.
But that doesn't seem like a bug fix, so I'll desist for now.

From 89862c5c145d5f66f284098abf0ef6384a96a8d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2024 12:59:44 -0500
Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] Avoid concurrent calls to bindtextdomain().

We previously supposed that it was okay for different threads to
call bindtextdomain() concurrently (cf. commit 1f655fdc3).
It now emerges that there's at least one gettext implementation
in which that triggers an abort() crash, so let's stop doing that.
Add mutexes guarding libpq's and ecpglib's calls, which are the
only ones that need worry about multithreaded callers.

Note: in libpq, we could perhaps have piggybacked on
default_threadlock() to avoid defining a new mutex variable.
I judge that not terribly safe though, since libpq_gettext could
be called from code that is holding the default mutex.  If that
were the first such call in the process, it'd fail.  An extra
mutex is cheap insurance against unforeseen interactions.

Per bug #18312 from Christian Maurer.  Back-patch to all
supported versions.
