Fix bug with socket writing. (Tatsuo Ishii)
pool_write_flush()
is responsible for writing to sockets when pgpool's write buffer is full (this function was introduced in 3.6.6 etc). When network write buffer in kernel is full, it does retrying but it forgot to update the internal buffer pointer. As a result, broken data is written to the socket. This results in variety of problems including too large message length. -
Fix pgpool child process segfault when ALWAYS_MASTER is on. (Tatsuo Ishii)
If following conditions are all met pgpool child segfaults:
-
Streaming replication mode.
-
fail_over_on_backend_error is off.
-
ALWAYS_MASTER flags is set to the master (writer) node.
-
pgpool_status file indicates that the node mentioned in #3 is in down status.
